Onto another new feature due out soon within the next NVH beta build, this is called "Graphing PID's" or in plain English "Graphing OBD-II parameter identification codes" (Not sure that is any clearer)
In a nutshell, Parameter ID's are standardised codes sent via a Scan Tool onto the relevant vehicle network to request specific data.
For example:
A technician requires Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor data:
The Parameter ID or "PID" formula for requesting Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor data is A*100/255
The Scan Tool will place the required PID onto the vehicle network and the node (PCM in this case) will surrender the Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor data which in turn will then be displayed on the Scan Tool screen.
So why is this relevant to NVH and how could this assist with such diagnosis?
At present the NVH software utilises these PID's to request engine and road speed data via the J2534 OBD interface. (MongoosePro ISO/CAN 2)
Both engine and road speed are graphed in the signal history in order to identify the vehicle condition under a variety of noise and vibration symptoms.
Until now, the NVH software would only request engine and road speed data but now we can request a number of OBD-II parameters using available PID's stored within the PID library. To access the PID library click on the Vehicle Information tab and select Configure PIDs where Available PID's can be selected then added to the Current Capturing PIDs table
For Example:
To add Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor to your existing ODB-II parameter data, click on Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor in the Available PID Library and select "Start Capturing" then "Apply Changes"
Should you wish to edit a PID (using Accelerator Position Sensor as an example) double click on any PID in the Available PID Library where the Edit PID dialogue box will appear. Here you can edit any of the data including the PID formula, whilst also confirming successful verification of the PID via the displayed "Green Tick" (Engine On and J2534 interface connected)
The new Configure PIDs feature includes the option to Create a PID assuming you have the relevant PID data/formula. (Engine On and J2534 interface connected)
In the example below we have created a PID for "Throttle position" that was not originally found in the Available PID Library. (For PID data refer to the relevant 3rd party technical information that is often manufacturer specific) Fill out the relevant PID data and click OK when complete. Your new "Created" PID will now appear in the Available PID Library for selection as above
Finally PID's can be Imported or Exported using the relevant buttons to the right of the Available PID Library. (Import / Export) Here you can create and save your model specific PID's to your local PC and share with other users (Export).
All created PID's are saved as .pdpid files and of course can be imported should you receive a PID via email attachment etc.
At present, to view your selected PID's in relation to noise and vibration data you will need to select the "Time Domain" option where Accelerometer and Microphone data are displayed with reference to time. Such PID data may well be relevant if noise or vibration is linked to "Engine load" / "Engine Temperature" for engine mechanical noises or "MAF" / "Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor" for air intake noise.
The image above indicates how the relevant PID's would be displayed against accelerometer data (X axis). The options here are too numerous to list as the user could select the desired accelerometer axis or Mic data against the desired PID.
I hope this helps, take care…….Steve

Obiang targets West Ham return at Tottenham
Pedro Obiang is targeting a West Ham return in next weekend's Premier League trip to London rivals Tottenham.
The midfielder suffered a quadriceps injury in training ahead of West Ham's 2-0 defeat at Watford last month and also missed the following 1-1 draw against Everton.
With West Ham having lost Dimitri Payet and Enner Valencia (both ankle) to injury against Everton, Obiang is hopeful that the international break has given him enough time to recover and hand manager Slaven Bilic a timely fitness boost.
"I'm feeling better now and I'm training hard to hopefully join the rest of the guys, but these things happen," Obiang told West Ham's official website.
"I just want to get back as soon as I can to help the team. We're focusing on the areas where I'm feeling a bit of discomfort so that next week I can start training again with the rest of the team.
"I'm very much looking forward to the next match against Tottenham as I am with every game, as it represents a new opportunity to play.
"I really hope that I have recovered by then and I can be part of the squad, so that I can make the fans happier."

Amazing Artificial Christmas Trees!
Don't knock the artificial Christmas tree! They can be just as lovely as the real thing! Personally, I don't like the idea of killing a perfectly good tree just to bring it in your house for a few weeks and then get rid of the poor thing. By getting an artificial tree you not only save a tree, you save the environment -- and if you've got kids, you instill this value in them at the same time. It's win / win situation, particularly since artificial xmas trees are so beautiful these days. They are easy to set up, easy to take down, and you don't need to buy a new one every year, nor haul it out to the curb when Christmas is over. Please consider buying an artificial tree and save the real ones.
7.5 Foot Pre-lit Christmas Tree
This tree is gorgeous! Much better than the artificial trees that were around when I was a kid, that's for sure. This tree is pre-lit and the lights can be set to blinking mode or you can just leave them on without flashing. The lights are clear. The tree is easy to assemble and then easy to store when Christmas is over. Set her up and decorate that beautiful tree! Comes with a metal tree stand.
GKI Bethlehem 9ft Tree
Now THIS is the mega quality artificial Christmas tree that has to convince the skeptics that these can look as beautiful as the real thing. This GKI / Bethlehem Christmas tree is 9 feet tall and 79 inches wide. The tree is Pre-Lit with 1250 clear lights. Comes with a stand, of course. Tree is fire-retardant, crush-proof and just stunning! I would love to have the gorgeous xmas tree. It's pricier than other models, but it does come with a 10 year warranty.
GKI Bethlehem 7.5ft Tree
And here we have another beautiful artificial Christmas tree from GKI Bethlehem. It's also Pre-Lit with 600 clear lights. This tree measures 7.5 feet tall and 58 inches wide. Less expensive than the previous model but still lovely and it comes with a 10 year warranty as well. Comes with a metal stand. Sturdy branches so get decorating this amazing Christmas tree with your best ornaments!
GKI Bethlehem 6.5 ft Tree
Well, by now you realize that GKI is really a leader in the production of high quality artificial Xmas Trees. Here's another stunner, but this is a different sort of tree and is a bit narrower than the other models. I listed this one for those who prefer this type of tree, but also for those who might not have enough space for the wider Christmas trees -- this could be the option you're searching for. It's 6.5 ft tall and 38 inches wide. Pre-Lit with 350 clear lights, comes with metal stand. And, of course, a 10 year warranty.
6ft. Snowy Alpine Tree
This is a far less expensive model than the others on this page, but I wanted to include something that would definitely be affordable for everyone looking for a Christmas tree. This is not the sort of tree that was indigenous where I grew up in the US, but it's a common tree over here in Europe where I live now and the real trees the locals bring in for Christmas look similar -- there are no big fluffy Christmas trees over here, because they are not indigenous. They look quite lovely when decorated, too! Tree is 6 ft tall and 25 inches wide, with snow flocked branches. Free tree stand included.

New Kids on the Block
Chop Shop: Bodies of Work
by Dean Speer
February 12, 2012-- Meydenbauer Center, Bellevue, Washington
Director Eva Stone's annual February modern dance festival, on the very day I attended, celebrated its fifth anniversary with yummy chocolate cake for everyone there, in the foyer after concluding the program...and which was preceded by a whole lot of delicious dancing.
While I found this year's edition to have been not quite as strong choreographically as previous programs, it was never the less a very good afternoon of excellent dancing, a couple of choreographic nuggets and some impressive local debuts by artists not previously seen here.
Stone is quick-witted and her charming introductory welcome remarks were premised on numerals – numbers one through five, telling us her appreciation for the various artists, crew, and supporters that made this kind of large-scale event possible.
Modern/contemporary dance is wide ranging in its styles and implication and this was reflected in the variety we enjoyed from the stage. Portland's BodyVox was represented by two clever and amusing video clips – in the first, "Advance 2009" a pair of dancers build a running dance through quite a few contrasting geographic locations: the inner city, the beach, the desert, on railway tracks, down a couple of paths whilst developing their theme to an upbeat pop musical score. The second was a nod to the iconic "Dying Swan" – in this case an office worker walking through the construction zones of Portland's Pearl District of a few years ago, comes across the abandoned carcass of a love – who is revealed to be a very large John Deere backhoe, hence the dance's title, the playful "Deere John (2000)." We see the man being spun by the machine, riding in its bucket, and eventually being saddened when it runs out of gas.
Adam Barruch Dance, with Barruch and Chelsea Bonosky, was very strongly represented by his dramatic insertion, "Folie à deux" to music of that composer who's popular with contemporary choreographers, Arvo Part. Intertwining, yet not really "relating," this seemed to be an isolationist and nod to futurism idea carried out with clarity.
Bellingham Repertory Dance's 'Politics,' excerpted from Daniel Stark's "Politics, Religion, and Sex," reminded me a bit of Kurt Jooss' "Green Table" where formally dressed men meet and argue the world's fate – here with the cast in business attire (but bare feet) who are on different sides in chairs and who, during a romp to a peppy square dance tune, both cavort with and assault and blame each other, often in a cartoonish way. This dance was to the point and about the right length.
While I don't know whether it is accurate to state that it's his first return to the dancing stage, it was good to experience Donald Byrd's solo – strongest when he moved, less effective when he felt compelled to read us a written message about the state of Jerusalem -- in his "The 'little' JERUSALEM DANCE." Byrd is a powerful presence and mover on stage and the text, should it be necessary to read it, would have worked and flowed better had it been part of the accompaniment/sound and read by a vocally-trained actor. The dancing was broken up by walking over to a music stand, and then back to center stage to move again. This happened a couple of times. Does he doubt that dance is sufficient to render what it was that he wanted to say? With the title of the work, its score, and importantly, his powerful and commanding gestures, we in the audience got it and were appreciative that he did not back away from but courageously tackled current political and social issues.
Cyrus Khambatta's work has been represented on past Chop Shop programs and this one, "Centrifugal Force" is a strong work that counters our visual expectations of dance that uses circles as a theme, efficiently danced by Eric Aguilar, Chris McCallister, Kaitlin McCarthy, Jenny Peterson and Meredith Sallee.
Penny Hutchinson's trio, "Alien Dances" to a composer new to us, Vyautas Germanavicius – I didn't quite "get" this piece, although in the words of the immortal Merce Cunningham to a mutual friend, "Nelle, there's nothing to get!" I did very much like how well this trio of tie-clad dancers moved: Erinn Crosby-Dirth, Kai Berkedal, and Nick Van Deren.
Portland was also represented by Northwest Dance Project's "A Short History of Walking" which featured the highly-trained and beautiful dancers, Patrick Kilbane and Elijah Labay who finish André Mesquita's piece with about the only actual walking in it by striding purposefully toward the audience. Before they get there, they engage, first as a solo, in off-balance moving poses and eventually some interaction – to an energetic and driving score that had lots of presence.
Stone's own group, The Stone Dance Collective performed her "Piñata" had a blindfolded female first spit out candy/seeds? into a bowl who then stood upstage right and engaged in singular angst-ridden poses while a corps of women interpreted the rest of Stone's dance. Perhaps a commentary on how games train or influence us.
Ellie Sandstrom [SANDSTROMMOVEMENT] duet for two women, "the Series For (For One/For Two) represented herself and fellow dancer, Hannah Crowley well. She seems to favor movement with oppositional pulls – feet going one way, arms another and understands that asymmetry in choreography is stronger than exact unison and deploys this effectively.
Jason Ohlberg's contribution, "Sweetness of leaving," was to a soulful country-western song, with four women outfitted in drab dance dresses seemed to be reflecting on states of loneliness.
"Allemande" was Joshua Beamish's work which concluded this year's program, performed by his ensemble, MOVE: the company. Beamish is essentially a ballet-mover with a contemporary twist. Culling from several Bach 'cello suites' – utilizing the Allemande movements -- his dance opened with Heather Dotto and Cai Gover and then the choreographer himself entering. I have the impression that he first makes his movement phrases on himself, as many choreographers are wont to do. I say this because they tended to look best on himself, partly I think due to his technique being slightly sharper than his colleagues but also that the movement "fit" him so well like well-worn and comfy shoes. My only suggestion would have been to have costumed Heather Dotto differently. Dotto is tall and a gorgeous mover but what she wore detracted slightly from her performance.
In all, Stone gave us a very satisfactory afternoon of previously unseen works that deserved to be showcased, making their way to the Eastside and to the region's discerning audiences to support and enjoy.
We can hardly wait for what 2013 promises!

Great utility vehicle
User review on Tata Xenon XT (2009-2018) written by Charan Kanth on 20 July 2014
Charan Kanth's review on Tata Xenon XT (2009-2018) EX 4x4
Year of Manufacture : 2011 | Driven no. of Kms. : 55000
- Pros: Superb performance of engine
- Cons: High price
I am owning a Xenon XT 4X4. It's a fantastic vehicle with best combination of power and utility features. The 4X4 is very much useful for our areas with lots of hill stations very bad road conditions. The torque distribution with excellent quality of gearbox, differential, transfer box gives best results irrespective of road conditions. The premium quality of fit and finish for the interiors makes one feel comfortable over long journeys. All is well with this vehicle except the price range. The cost of nearly 10 Lakh is too much to pay for a utility.Somehow it makes us feel we have paid excessively for this. Maintenance is also quite good with no much brake down troubles. However when major repairs arises such as overhauling suspension system etc. There would be comparatively higher bills to pay for.

"Got me rockin' and a-reelin'…and I can't shake the feelin'…"
In April of 1966 — just four months after the release of the turbulent masterpiece "My World Is Empty With You" — The Supremes burst back onto radio airwaves with their funkiest, most danceable song yet. "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart" was a turnabout for the sophisticated songstresses, allowing the ladies to ditch the sequins, throw on some jeans for a minute, and let loose over one of the most angular, exciting tracks ever delivered by Motown session band The Funk Brothers. The song was a top 10 hit on both the pop and R&B charts, and led the way for the group's next single, another vibrant uptempo aimed directly at the massive market of teenaged record-buyers. That song was "You Can't Hurry Love" — and it brought The Supremes back to #1 (for the seventh time) for two weeks in September of 1966.
The eventual album built around these two hits couldn't have been more different from the group's previous LP, I Hear A Symphony. That record featured a lineup composed of several pop standards and lushly arranged songs that seemed to target both teens and their parents. The end result was a good, but uneven and often unexciting album which topped out at #8 on the Billboard 200. For the follow-up, producers Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier took a completely different approach, filling The Supremes A' Go-Go with nothing but dance songs, every one of which would have been immediately recognizable to young listeners. With a lineup of proven hits (all but two lifted from the Motown fold) and a cover photo featuring the three Supremes dancing, the LP soared straight to the top, becoming the group's first #1 pop album. Notably, they were the only African-Americans to score a #1 album on the Billboard 200 that year, and aside from the female members of The Mamas & The Papas, the only women to hit the top.
The Supremes A' Go-Go is certainly the most upbeat recording ever released by The Supremes; the songs here have energy and bounce to spare. Unfortunately, filling it with so many then-current hits causes the LP to sound dated, especially when it comes to kitschy inclusions "These Boots Are Made For Walking" and "Hang On Sloopy" (some of the songs were also cut in Los Angeles, which means certain tracks also lack the fire provided by the Detroit musicians). The standouts here are the two singles, of course, especially the sublime and infectious "You Can't Hurry Love" — pop/soul rarely gets better. But much of the joy of past Supremes albums was discovering the deep cuts, songs like "(I'm So Glad) Heartaches Don't Last Always" and "Any Girl In Love (Knows What I'm Going Through)" that never even made it to the b-sides of singles but are as good in their way as anything else recorded by the group. The Supremes A' Go-Go doesn't contain any of those surprises, and thus feels a little superficial today. That said, as a "concept" album — one celebrating youth and the dance culture of the mid-1960s — it works very well.
(NOTE: The following summaries are based on the "Mastered for iTunes" version of the album currently available for download.)
1. Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart: If ever a song captured the sound of Detroit — the honking of horns, the cranks and gears of the assembly lines, and the jingling of brand-new car keys — it's "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart." Interestingly, session notes found in the booklet to the 2000 box set The Supremes list recording dates for this song stretching back to June of 1965, nearly a year before the its eventual release. Whatever the reason it took so long to finish the song, it came at the right time; following the releases of the stately The Supremes At The Copa and I Hear A Symphony, this track gave The Supremes a shot in the arm, providing them with something youthful and funky and perfect for the dancefloor. Opening with Benny Benjamin's pounding backbeat and James Jamerson's soul-stirring bass, the track explodes into a muscular symphony of blaring horns and chunky piano chords. The brilliant Funk Brothers play these instruments with and against each other, creating musical angles and hard edges that crackle with energy. The lyrics are some of Holland-Dozier-Holland's most playful, a series of clever and blunt rhymes decrying the pain of falling in love (i.e. "Love is a nagging irritation/Causing my heart complication/Love is a growing infection/And I don't know the correction"). Diana Ross, Mary Wilson, and Florence Ballard have a ball with the song; after hearing them labor through so many standards on recent releases, it's a joy to hear the ladies really cut loose. Ross takes the lead here and matches the tone set by The Funk Brothers; her vocal is urgent and edgy, as if she's really feeling that "nagging irritation" in the studio. Listen to the way she growls when she delivers "tearing it all apart" — it's the kind of thing she really hadn't done on record yet, and it lends a nice depth to her voice. She also goes for higher notes with great confidence; I love the way she sails upward on "What you gonna do?" at roughly 1:18 in. Ballard and Wilson ably support her; they are in fine voice, and their repetitions of "Keeps me sighin'/keeps my cryin'" etc. are a terrific hook. When it was released on April 8, 1966, the song climbed #9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #7 on the R&B chart. Considering six of the group's previous eight singles had soared to #1, this song's performance was probably considered lackluster around the company. Still, this is a fantastic recording and is certainly looked upon as a Supremes classic today; more than that, it's one of the great instrumental tracks to come out of the Motown, and another sterling example of just what this talented group of musicians was capable of.

This Old Heart Of Mine (Is Weak For You): A classic song written by H-D-H (along with writer Sylvia Moy), this one was a hit for The Isley Brothers in early 1966 and has been recorded many times, including versions by Tammi Terrell and Rod Stewart. According to the website Don't Forget The Motor City, this version was produced (uncredited on the original LP release) by Hal Davis and Marc Gordon, which would mean the track was cut in Los Angeles, where the pair was based. As is typical of many of those LA recordings, this is a very good facsimile of the Hitsville sound but is missing the strong bass that distinguished the Detroit players; thus, as good as it is, it immediately feels a little more "lightweight" than the previous track. Still, "This Old Heart Of Mine (Is Weak For You)" is a great fit for The Supremes, as one would expect from another song penned by Holland-Dozier-Holland; there are even shades of past Supremes singles in the song's melody (personally, I hear "Back In My Arms Again"). Diana offers a crisp, precise performance; there's a real confidence to her spirited work here, and she delivers a very different interpretation (but easily just as good — if not better) than that of the less-controlled, raw Ronald Isley. Mary and Florence serve up classy background vocals, displaying a nice two-part harmony behind Diana. It's easy to understand why this song has had a long shelf life (Isley and Rod Stewart recorded it as a duet in 1990 and took it to the top 10); it's upbeat and infectious and full of hooks. Had the instrumental track here been just a little bit punchier and carried more weight, it could have been a hit for The Supremes, too.
3. You Can't Hurry Love: If the summer of '66 was already a hot one, The Supremes made it even more sizzling with the July release of this song, which soared to #1 on both the pop and R&B chart (peaking in September). According to The Billboard Book of Number One R&B Hits, "The Supremes probably taped their vocals for 'You Can't Hurry Love' in Detroit on June 14, 1966, at a session sandwiched between concert engagements in San Francisco and Toronto. By this time, the group had been at the top of their game for two straight years; their itineraries were crammed with concert and television dates, personal appearances, and overseas tours" (21). Indeed, it must have seemed impossible to get the ladies in the studio at all, considering the group's packed schedule; this makes it all the more impressive that in such limited time, The Supremes could create such important and iconic music. At the helm again was the team of Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland; having already delivered a half-dozen #1 hits to The Supremes (not to mention successful singles for other groups), H-D-H whipped up its most neatly-packaged chunk of pop/soul yet. According to Dozier (quoted in The Supremes box set booklet), this song is another one incorporating the influences of the church: "It had that spiritual, church element to it. We pulled out some stuff because it was too gospelly, then we found a nice little bed that it floated on." The end result is another beat-driven song, but one that's not nearly as hard-edged as "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart" — there's still an urgency and a freshness, but it's smoother and easier to digest. The track here is absolutely sublime; The Funk Brothers are so tight it's tough to figure out which instrument is which. According to bandleader Earl Van Dyke, "When Robert [White, guitarist] and I played parts in unison, they would stop the session in the middle of a tune and say, 'I can't hear the piano' or 'I can't hear the guitar,' because they couldn't separate us — like on 'You Can't Hurry Love'" (Billboard 22). What is immediately audible is the earthier sound of the track; after so many lean, percussive Supremes hits, there's a folksier feel to "You Can't Hurry Love" that signals another step in the group's evolution. Diana Ross mints one of her greatest Supremes-era performances on this track, embodying every listener in the world who's ever questioned "How long must I wait?" This vocal is the perfect example of the unique "edge" that many talk about when assessing the Ross sound; there's a real, heartfelt pleading in her voice as she sings, "Right now the only thing/That keeps me hanging on/When I feel my strength/Yeah, is almost gone" and the words cut straight through the track. This is also powerful singing; listen closely around :40, as she wails the words "must I stand," and note the strength of voice that Diana Ross is rarely given credit for. Although the background vocals never quite break through the breathless lead vocal, they absolutely sweeten the track, and it's hard to imagine the song without them. And that's the thing about "You Can't Hurry Love" — it's hard to imagine the song without any of the elements that are present. It's simply a perfect song, one that's timeless and remains as compelling today as it must have been in the summer of '66.
4. Shake Me, Wake Me (When It's Over): The Supremes A' Go-Go follows its seminal track with a fantastic cover of the song made famous by The Four Tops. As with "This Old Heart Of Mine (Is Weak For You)," this tune was written by H-D-H, so it makes sense that it's here and that The Supremes do so well by it. Don't Forget The Motor City lists Hal Davis and Frank Wilson as producers of this track (again, this wasn't credited on the original LP), and I'd imagined this was the case before reading it; this is another extremely polished recording, lacking a bit of the raw, oil-smudged feel of the original. Aside from that, this is a faithful rendition of the song, opening with the same deep, staccato piano riff leading to a punchy beat that seems to take literally the singer's command to "Shake me!" Diana sings the song's opening in an appealingly low voice; there's a sultriness to her lower range that's a nice counterpoint to the higher singing more closely identified with her. Ross possesses a great control over her lower range, something she'd further exploit during her solo work. Later in the song, she lets loose with a few nice ad-libs; I love her "Wake me, somebody!" at 1:05 and her read on the line "I can't bear to be losing you" at 1:26 is wonderfully soulful. Diana's performance isn't passionate in the way that Tops lead singer Levi Stubbs's was; he sang as if in complete emotional turmoil, whereas Ross sounds more urgent and agitated, as if she really does just want it to be "over." Likewise, Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard don't oversing to match the boisterous backgrounds of the original, but instead deliver statelier vocals (both ladies ring through loud and clear, particularly Ballard in spots). The result is a recording that's not radically different in sound, but is new and fresh in terms of tone. It's really good, and could have been a big hit for the group. (NOTE: Much would be made of The Supremes covering Barbra Streisand's Funny Girl soundtrack in a few years; interestingly, Streisand would cover this song in the following decade, releasing it in a disco version.)
5. Baby I Need Your Loving: The second Four Tops cover in a row, "Baby I Need Your Loving" is a powerful classic that gave the male quartet its first Motown hit (reaching the top 20 in 1964). This version is quite different, sonically closer in beat and background arrangement to the 1966 Stevie Wonder hit "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" than the Four Tops original. The instrumental is arranged at a faster pace, and has a much "cleaner" sound — this is a tight, compact track, with a prominent guitar line that gives it a more urgent feel than the rawer, bass-heavy Tops recording. Interestingly, Diana's voice sounds to my ears like it's doubled during the chorus; if this is the case, that touch and the guitar work strongly foreshadow the group's next single, "You Keep Me Hangin' On" (released in October of 1966). Diana's performance here features none of the sorrow displayed by Four Tops lead singer Levi Stubbs; Ross delivers a clipped vocal that doesn't necessarily sound like she's "begging" — as the lyric suggest. Still, it's a compelling lead simply because of Diana's unique vocal precision; there's great authority in the way she sings with such unwavering intention. She's matched by the effectively understated work by Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard, who particularly shine toward the end of the song, while repeating the chorus. Because this version of "Baby I Need Your Loving" sounds so different from the many others that have surfaced over the years (Johnny Rivers would make it a hit again in 1967, with The Blossoms on background vocals), it's easy to appreciate for what it is. It's not the best song on the album, but it's a deserves a place here.
6. These Boots Are Made For Walking: For the first time, The Supremes A' Go-Go reaches outside of the Motown fold for a recording; this song was a #1 hit for Nancy Sinatra in early 1966, released on Reprise Records (the label formed by her father, Frank Sinatra). "These Boots Are Made For Walking" is an iconic song, capturing the mood and flavor the swinging 1960s, although it's been covered many times over the years and updated by artists like Jessica Simpson and Geri Halliwell, it always ends up sounding "retro" and like a novelty tune. That's how Diana's version feels here, and enjoyment of the song probably depends on the mood of the listener more than anything else. As a cover, Motown's "These Boots" is actually pretty good; it's played fairly straightforward, without much deviation from the original. The instrumental is accomplished, with a slinky start and brassy finish, and Diana sounds good; there was certainly a risk of Ross crossing the line into total kitsch, but she doesn't, which is a relief. It's a solo song for her, with no background vocals, and she carries it well. Still, this inclusion comes off dated in a way the previous five don't, and there's probably nothing anybody could have done to change that.
7. I Can't Help Myself: After a brief diversion, The Supremes return to Four Tops territory, covering the song that knocked "Back In My Arms Again" from the #1 spot on both the Billboard Hot 100 and the R&B chart in June of 1965. Penned by H-D-H, this is one of the great Motown songs of all time, with a driving beat and brilliant lyrics impossible to forget. The Supremes deliver a fabulous version; Diana offers up a chirpy lead vocal that's commanding and quite endearing (I particularly like her little high-note riff on the word "you" at 2:00). Behind her, Mary Wilson is really audible; if Florence Ballard is singing with her, she's totally overshadowed by Mary's misty tone (it's particularly easy to hear Mary's singing because on the stereo master of the song, Diana is placed on one channel and the backgrounds stuck on the other). The Funk Brothers mint another great take on the song, emphasizing strings and New Orleans-style horns this time; the only minor complaint is that the heavy strings on the instrumental break do sound dated and just a little campy. Still, this is pleasant and spirited addition to the album's lineup.
8. Get Ready: A #1 R&B hit for The Temptations in April of 1966, this song was written by Smokey Robinson; this makes it the first Smokey song released by The Supremes in quite some time (Robinson had written several of the group's early singles, and they turned in a fantastic version of his hit "You've Really Got A Hold On Me" on 1964's A Bit Of Liverpool). This is one of those songs that's so well-written that it's really hard to mess up; The Supremes deliver an energetic version about whichBruce Eder of AllMusic says, "…even if it was no threat to The Temptations, [it] still could have been a hit." According to Don't Forget The Motor City, this is one of the tracks cut in LA and produced by Frank Wilson/Hal Davis; it's actually one of the better ones, with a driving beat and extremely tight playing by the West Coast musicians. The Supremes sound really good; maybe this isn't the group's most distinguished or engaged performance, but it's solid. This probably got plenty of teenagers dancing in 1966, which is exactly what it was meant to do.
9. Put Yourself In My Place: This was (and surely still is) the most obscure of the songs featured on The Supremes A' Go-Go, although it was recorded by plenty of Motown acts in its day. It was first cut on The Elgins in 1965, then became a b-side when it was placed on the "You Can't Hurry Love" 45 release by The Supremes; it was relegated to "b" status again when it was featured on the flipside of Motown singer Chris Clark's "Love's Gone Bad" single in 1966, and there's also a version out there by The Isley Brothers! "Put Yourself In My Place" is an unusual composition, and this particular version (with its keyboard-driven track) sounds ahead of its time; had it been held back a little longer, it would have been a good fit for the Reflections LP in 1967. The song is perfect for Diana Ross, whose voice glides effortlessly over the melody; she sounds really strong here. The voices behind her sound like Motown session singers The Andantes; this isn't a huge surprise, considering the song was cut on so many different artists, the backgrounds were probably already done by the time Diana Ross recorded her own lead. The Funk Brothers offer up a superb track, with a great bassline and classic Motown percussion; it's one of the best on the album. The more I listen to "Put Yourself In My Place," the more I like it; it probably could have made a nice single release for The Supremes later in the decade.
10. Money (That's What I Want): This it the song that started it all; written by Berry Gordy, Jr. and Janie Bradford, it was released on Barrett Strong in 1959 and became Motown's first hit record. The version included here is predictably more polished and less soulful than the original, though Diana Ross delivers a great lead vocal. Ross is actually quite soulful on this recording, sounding spirited and passionate about the subject of "green" — her opening lines (the classic "The best things in life are free/But you can give them to the birds and bees") are sung with a kind of abandon she'd further exploit in the next few years (and particularly in her early solo work). Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard, however, don't really rise to the occasion; for lack of a better term, they sound a little "square" — too prim and proper while crooning "That's what I want" (again, Wilson is really the audible one here, her unique tone immediately recognizable). The arrangement also lacks some of the power you'd expect from such a bold statement of a song; the instrumental work feels superficial and too generic. This one is worth hearing for Diana's solid performance, but it's filler.
11. Come And Get These Memories: This is a notable inclusion on The Supremes A' Go-Go simply because it features Mary Wilson on lead, her first lead vocal work in quite some time. This is a cover of the 1963 single by Martha and The Vandellas, which was that group's first significant hit (it was also written by the Holland-Dozier-Holland team). The recording here doesn't feature Diana Ross at all; Mary sings lead and she and Florence take background vocals, affording those ladies a deserved moment in the spotlight. The song is an instantly catchy one set to a swinging beat, but its melody line is fairly limited; Wilson acquits herself nicely, but doesn't dig nearly as deep as Martha Reeves did to give the piece some added substance. The end result is a pleasant and innocuous reading, but one that's not particularly distinguished. It's always a treat to Mary out front, but this isn't as dynamic as her work on the great "Baby Don't Go" (from Meet The Supremes) or "Sunset" from Country, Western & Pop. (NOTE: This is another one of those songs on which the stereo masters stuck her lead on one channel and the backgrounds on the other; this was corrected on Let The Music Play: Supreme Rarities, released on CD by Hip-O Select in 2008.
12. Hang On Sloopy: For the second and final time, the album features a song written and performed by somebody outside the Motown family; "Hang On Sloopy" had been a #1 hit for The McCoys in October of 1965 (shortly before "I Hear A Symphony" took the throne). Similar to "These Boots Are Made For Walking," this is a song that's very much of its time — as influential as it was, it sounds like a song that was written and performed in the mid-1960s. Thus, even though the version included here is good, it still sounds like a novelty inclusion. The AllMusic review of this album calls Diana's performance here "surprisingly strong, passionate" — indeed, she sounds really good, and her vocals are particularly powerful toward the end of the song. But the rest of it doesn't hold up too well; there's a timeless quality to the hits and certain album tracks (like "This Old Heart Of Mine" and "Shake Me, Wake Me") on this album that "Hang On Sloopy" just doesn't possess.
Listening to The Supremes A' Go-Go today, it's no surprise that it was such a smash hit; The Supremes hadn't sounded this youthful since their very first album, and this is exactly the kind of dance music teens would have wanted to buy and listen to over and over. Certainly the singles here are stellar; in particular, "You Can't Hurry Love" is perfection, with a vocal by Diana Ross that's so unique and contemporary it could be a hit all over again today. What this album lacks is depth; as mentioned earlier, it's one of the very few Supremes albums without any hidden gems just waiting to be discovered by future generations of listeners ("Put Yourself In My Place" is as close as it gets here, by virtue of the fact that the song is lesser-known than the rest). Some of the songs lack some depth, too; without the Detroit musicians present, those productions are missing a key ingredient that make Supremes and Motown recordings so special. Today, The Supremes A' Go-Go is best listened to as a celebration of being a teenager in the 1960s; in its way, it's a "theme" LP as much as A Bit Of Liverpool or The Supremes Sing Country, Western & Pop were, and frankly, it's much better than those albums. Some of the songs might sound dated, but the hits are timeless.
After all, like The Supremes say — it's a game of give and take.
Final Analysis: 4/5 (Dated, But Still A Lot To "Love")
Choice Cuts: "You Can't Hurry Love," "Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart," "Shake Me, Wake Me (When It's Over)"

Collaborates with GM to Upgrade the Lost-Foam Process
Motors Powertrain, a CAMP Corporate Member located in Massena,
NY, completed the first phase of a $1.37 million project designed
to upgrade the quality of the plant's lost-foam casting process.
This ongoing research effort is a partnership between General
Motors (GM) Powertrain, Clarkson University's Center for Advanced
Materials Processing (CAMP), the New York State Energy Research
and Development Authority (NYSERDA), and the U.S. Department
of Energy (DOE).
lost-foam process makes use of a polystyrene foam which is
similar to the kind used in coffee cups. The foam is used
to make molded patterns for engine block and cylinder head
castings. First the foam mold is placed into a box of compacted
sand. Then the molten metal is added and its heat vaporizes
the foam. Once cooled, the metal takes the shape of the mold.
lost-foam process uses 25 % less energy than the traditional
casting technique and also uses less metal. Their high-tech
process allows for patterns and molds to be designed in very
complex shapes. This saves additional energy and natural resources
because it eliminates many of the downstream finishing steps
at machining plants.
In addition sophisticated measuring equipment, developed in
part by Buffalo Wire Works in collaboration with CAMP and
support from NYSERDA, is being used to analyze the coating
applied to the molds and the sand packed around the coated
patterns used in this project. (The New York State Office
of Science, Technology, and Academic Research (NYSTAR) provided
an $ 81, 000 technology transfer grant to Clarkson University
to enable it to partner with Buffalo Wire Works to develop
the prototype for the particle size and shape analysis instrument
being used in the lost-foam casting process.) Buffalo Wire
Works is a CAMP New York State Associate.
members collaborate on the Lost-Foam Process. From left: Dr.
Calvin K. Johnson (Consultant), Ms. Joanna M. Jenack (Process
Engineer at GMPT), Professor Dayakar Penumadu (CAMP / University

Wire Works Co., Inc.), Mr. Ross Johnson ( Manager of Manufacturing
Engineering at GMPT), Dr. Dana Levy (Project Manager at NYSERDA),
Mr. Gunnar Walmet (Program Director at NYSERDA), and CAMP
Deputy Director Edward McNamara. Also on the team is Mr. Scott
Hutchins (Program Manager for the U.S. DOE).
Ross Johnson (Manager of Manufacturing Engineering at GMPT)
describes the Lost-Foam Process used at GMPT in Massena, New
W. Bessette, M.D., Executive Director of NYSTAR, said "When
Governor Pataki announced the funding for the development
of the Buffalo Wire Works prototype project, he did so in
full realization of the economic potential the technology
could offer manufacturers. The development of a process to
automatically analyze the particle size of materials is a
significant manufacturing advancement, and it signals the
success of the Governor's efforts to enable the creation of
new technologies to build the economy of Upstate New York."
teamwork approach to improve the lost-foam process has received
praise from State legislators. "Attracting substantial federal
funding to match our New York funds offers us the chance to
show our North Country innovation, technology and skills.
With much of this coming from our own Clarkson University,
this is truly a North Country project that holds great promise
for GM and the people of St. Lawrence County," said Senator
Raymond A. Meier.
future of GM's Powertrain plant in Massena is brightened by
this project. NYSERDA, DOE, and Clarkson are teaming to produce
very positive trends for our Northern New York Region, and
we appreciate this progress,' said Assemblyman Chris Ortloff.
This joint effort to improve the lost-foam process is an ongoing
project. Specifically it will improve the lost-foam casting
process through the use of in -process controls resulting
in higher quality, lower scrap rates, and a reduction of aluminum

There are a number of reasons to send your dog out for training -- but only one desired result: that you get your dog back in one piece, and hopefully with a title attached. The days when Schutzhund was an individual pursuit for sport and art are, sadly, gone. In Germany, there are dozens of clubs in easy reach of most towns, and friends who will title a dog for you for the joy and hobby of it. We do not have these benefits in this country, and if you want to show, or breed, you need a title. If you have physical or logistical limitations, or just plain don't have the time, you may want to send your dog away to a professional. If you do your homework, you will have her back with better manners, more maturity, some real skills and a title to show.
Looking for a good trainer is almost like looking for daycare for your kids -- you want to know the provider you trust with your pet ( or brood bitch or show dog) is reputable, skilled, and will not do anything perverted or cruel to harm her. The best way to go about it is to ask around'ask friends who have titled dogs which trainers they admire, ask at clubs, and through the national organizations for a referral list. Sometimes trainers advertise in the breed magazines, but often they do not, and gain clienteleby reputation and word of mouth. Like any entrepreneur, they want your business, and will likely say what you want to hear. To find out if they will back up their claims, ask for references, and do check them out. Dig a little, and ask a lot of questions. Good trainers expect this and will nothave a problem answering truthfully when you ask. Some basic questions you might want the trainer to answer are:
And most importantly:
This can be members their club, judges under whom they have trialed, another trainer in the region, and so forth.
Lastly, ask to see ( live or via video) some examples of the trainer working with his or her own dogs. Do the dogs look stressed? Pressured? Miserable? Or do they appear to have a healthy bond and a happy attitude towards work. Watch the dog's body language when the trainer moves towards him'does the dog flinch, cower, pin his ears back? A well trained dog should not only perform the exercises, but should exhibit relaxed control when free as well.
These questions should not be a problem for a legitimate good trainer. Anyone who becomes defensive or evasive should be dropped from your list. Be especially wary of anyone who guarantees they can absolutely title your dog ( sight unseen) in X number of weeks or months. Good trainers know that each dog is different, and if they are under this kind of constraint, then you can bet that pressure and less than sound practices will have to be employed and the dog will likely suffer for the result. By the month or by the title? Both methods are used, and it's a matter of choice on the trainer's part. It is reasonable to ask for a cap or limit on the amount you will have to pay before the job is done if the monthly method is chosen.
How much will it cost? This can vary considerably form one region to the next, but figure in what board alone would cost at a decent kennel, and realize that the dog must be taught in three disciplines, usually with the assistance of an outside helper for the protection work ' and anywhere from $500-600 a month on up will not seem excessive.
Some trainers will want to take the dog for a preliminary evaluation period from a few weeks up to a month. Anyone who cannot figure out if they will be able to work with a dog in this amount of time should find another line of work. Expect to pay for the evaluation, as your dog will have to be housedand fed, and will be taking up space in the trainer's kennel. Ordinarily, the evaluation fee will be included in the overall cost if the trainer agrees to take the dog. You will be the one to pay for or provide transportation to the trainer's kennel. If they have to travel to an airport to pick up the dog, then you may be charged mileage as well.
Sometimes a videotape can be enough for the trainer to see, but buy all means be honest about any weaknesses or deficiencies, and try to show a comprehensive view. If the dog is gun sensitive, dog aggressive, or stick shy, then tell the trainer. They may be able to help train this out of the dog, but they certainly need to know about it. Remember, you are not trying to sell this person your dog, you are asking to hire their services, so it makes no sense to hide the faults. You may as well go to the doctor because you are sick, but dunk yourself in an ice bath first so he won't know you have a fever!
You have a right to expect a written contract that details what will be accomplished, and what it will cost. i.e.; "Bh , AD , SchH1, $2,800 plus expenses." The contract should also outline the limits on expenses, such as mileage to and from trials, lodging, meals, entries, etc., and should be clear as to the responsibilities of each party. You will likely be asked to sign a waiver and to give the trainer or their agent permission to get Veterinary treatment for your dog in case of emergency, and agree to be responsible for this, up to a predetermined amount. At this time you'll also want to make clear who is responsible for the cost of food, and if you request any additional supplements or special diets, how those will be charged. Some contracts are general and all-inclusive, and some ask for separate accounting every time the dog gets its nails clipped or eats apackage of hot dogs on the track.
You do NOT have a right to dictate what methods the trainer uses in teaching your dog. This person is a professional, and likely uses many different techniques for the many different challenges in training. It is understood that you believe this person to be competent, and think they know what they are doing. If you don't -- then don't send your dog. No professional likes to be second guessed. On the other hand, if you are dead set against the forced retrieve, for example, and absolutely don't want it used on your dog, then discuss this up front. If this trainer insists its the only way, then either trust them to do it humanely because they have good references, or look for a trainer who doesn't use it. ( Good luck).
Do expect regular progress reports -- a phone call or e-mail once a month or so is reasonable to ask, especially if you pay for the call. You should get an appraisal as to when the trainer thinks the dog will be ready for the first level of competition, and an immediate report of the results when he does trial. Its important to note here, too, that no one canguarantee a result. The best trainers in the world have all had bad trial days, even with some of the top dogs in the world -- their own dogs that they train intensely for years. So don't expect they can take your dog for a few months and guarantee top scores or even a pass. It's reasonable to say they should not enter your dog in an event until the dog has demonstrated on the training field that it can at least perform the required exercises.
As far as whether the dog receives a pronounced rating, again, that is the prerogative of the judge. The trainer should tell you if they feel the dog may have a problem in a certain area, and you can take your chances given that circumstance.
You should be able to reach the trainer with ease in case you have questions or information for them. Don't expect to get a blow by blow as to when the dog sniffed its first baby track, and when it first did a sendout on the field. Good trainers should be busy training and working your dog, and don't have time to be chatting you up every few days. Also, don't expect to visit during the training period. Even if you could, it would likely upset the dog and set her back in her training to see you again and then have to go through separation when you left.
What the trainer should be able to expect from you:
That you pay your bill promptly and don't bounce checks, and that you tell the truth about your dog and are reasonable in your expectations. You should provide a scorebook, proof of current vaccinations, a heath certificate, and a crate. Don't send toys or fancy collars, as most trainers don't want to be responsible for losing them. It's a good idea tosend along a copy of the pedigree, in case someone asks about your dog -- especially if she is nice!
The best trainers are in demand and usually have waiting lists. If you have a young dog you may want to send out later, start asking around now, and perhaps you can send a deposit to reserve a space. If you know you will be sending the dog later, but it is too young yet, here are some hints to make things go more smoothly:
Don't feel you have to start tracking or the retrieve -- the trainer will likely want to do it their own way; but the more exposure the dog has to the idea of listening and relating, the more smoothly the task will go.
Two to three thousand dollars may sound like a lot of money, but considering that your dog is more than a pet, this is a nominal price to pay for improving on your "investment." The addition of a Schutzhund titlemakes her much more valuable, and should you choose to breed her, the honor of a breed survey sets her apart in quality, making her puppies more valuable too. You will not do yourself or your dog any favors, however, if you "bargain shop." In this, as in most areas of commerce, you get what you pay for. But in this case, it is a living breathing creature that will suffer if your cheap pick is also a careless, inhumane trainer. Just as you took the time to find a good puppy, spend at least as much effort in finding someone to whom you entrust your dog. Research, prepare, and when you find a good trainer, you have found a valuable asset for you and your dog.

T.I. "Whatever You Like"
I guess T.I. hasn't forgot about the ladies. Do rappers ever forget about the ladies?
I'm getting a little frustrated with these lady-jams. I just don't really like gender-based stuff. Whether that be Van Damme and Steven Segal movies (guy crap), chick-flicks, or "strictly for my ladies" songs that I have to skip on the album. I'm looking at you, "Lollipop". I believe that art that is truly great will appeal to everyone, both guys and girls. Like, do men like Van Gogh paintings more than women? Do girls like Kanye's "Stronger" more than men? I think that truly great stuff isn't "strictly for my ladies" or "strictly for my players", it's universal.
I like hip-hop albums that are tight all the way through, where you don't even think about skipping a song. I don't skip nothing on Jay-Z's "The Blueprint", Biggie's "Ready To Die" or Outkast's "Stankonia". But when rappers throw on these radio-friendly "lady-jams" and the songs don't fit with the rest of the album, the album looses focus. Like, no matter how dope the rest of "Tha Carter III" is, I have to skip "Lollipop", so it can never be a classic album to me. Nahmean?
Anyways, at least the beat is tight. DJ Toomp is killing it.

Sunday's Serie A night game at the San Siro between AC Milan and AS Roma was momentarily halted because of racist chants aimed at Mario Balotelli and Kevin-Prince Boateng from the Roma Ultras. Under Serie A protocol, an announcement was made over the public address system and the game continued under the threat of being abandoned if the chants continued.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter was "appalled" that a game was suspended for racial abuse and Lega Calcio fined Roma €50,000 ($64,900). Again, a paltry amount for a club that's paying its players much more than that everyday.
Blatter pledged to fight this problem what seems like years ago but the fines that have been handed down are little more than slaps on the wrists and a bit of a timeout in the corner before it happens with the same club a few months later. Lazio's Ultras, Roma's Stadio Olimpico co-tenant, was involved in numerous racial chants incidents in the span of two or three months but they weren't fined much more than their Rome neighbors.
At the end of the day, you can only chalk this up to political rhetoric. Soothing the nerves of the masses who are too busy, too ignorant or too blind to the depth of the situation that they accept what is being said. Fortunately for the football community, I'd imagine that the vast majority of its inhabitants think racism severe enough to warrant players walking off the pitch and games being abandoned needs to be blotted from the game.
As of now, it seems like the fines are always too little. Fining top tier club and entire football associations, €50-100,000 isn't going to do anything in the grand scheme of things. Forcing them to play a few games behind closed doors only goes so far.
We all remember the scrum between Serbia's and England's U-21 National Teams where Serbia's fans ran on the field and fights broke out. That all began because of racist chants directed at England's Danny Rose. UEFA ordered Serbia, a country which has a long history of racial abuse at their football matches, to play a game behind closed doors and fined them £65,000.
For comparison's sake, Nicklas Bendtner was fined £80,000 for showing a sponsor's logo on his boxers which wasn't a partner of UEFA during Euro 2012.
One man fined more than an entire FA? For showing a logo on his underwear? Bendtner didn't spark a near-riot by showing that logo. Danny Rose's reaction, which we can argue whether he was right or wrong until we are blue in the face, to racial abuse did.
It's time that the punishments are ramped up. Clubs and FAs need to be banned from competitions for repeated racial abuse. Sides need to be docked points immediately for repeated racial abuse.These paltry fines handed out to clubs that can easily pay them need to be doubled, tripled even quadrupled.
Here's a good model for FIFA and all the governing bodies of the continents. Here in the United States, the NCAA oversees college and university athletics. In the '80s, Southern Methodist University was sanctioned for paying their athletes (these players are considered amateurs and can't be paid) multiple times in a few years' time.
In 1986, their American football program received the so-called "Death Penalty" banning them from playing for a year. They didn't play the next season either. They are only just recovering as a team and no program dares do enough to invoke the wrath of the NCAA almost 30 years later.
Don't threaten it. Do it.

Investigation of the binding of ceramide and palmitoyl-CoA to murine t-ACBP using heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy
Murine t-ACBP is a member of the family of acyl-CoA binding proteins expressed specifically in testis. Acyl-CoA binding proteins (ACBPs, also know as 'diazepam binding inhibitors' or DBIs') bind long-chain acyl-CoA esters with high affinity and act as intracellular transporters and pool formers for acyl-CoA. They are also endogenous ligands for the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR), which is localized in the mitochondrial membrane, and is thought to regulate the opening of the permeability transition pore complex (PTPC), a central event in apoptosis. We have shown previously that knock-out of t-ACBP leads to resistance to ceramide-induced apoptosis in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. We have also shown that transduction of recombinantly-produced t-ACBP into CHO cells leads to apoptosis by activation of caspase 3. One possible explanation for this behaviour is that ceramide up-regulates the interaction of t-ACBP with the PBR, leading to opening of the PTPC. A second explanation is that knock-out of t-ACBP leads to reduction in the availability of palmitoyl-CoA, and consequently to a lowering of the level of endogenous ceramide, rendering the cells less sensitive to exogenously introduced ceramide. We have recombinantly expressed 13C- and 15N-enriched samples of murine t-ACBP and used heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy to show that it binds strongly to palmitoyl-CoA. No significant binding was observed to either C2-ceramide or C16-ceramide. We conclude from this that if t-ACBP does play a role in the opening of the PTPC in response to ceramide, it does not do so by direct interaction with ceramide. We therefore conclude that it is the interaction of t-ACBP with palmitoyl-CoA that holds the key to its role in ceramide-induced apoptosis. This preliminary study serves to illustrate the power of NMR spectroscopy as a tool for probing protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions, which has not previously been exploited in South Africa.

Those who love Mid-Century Modern and Scandinavian design will want to explore the Hable for Hickory Chair furniture collection. The new collection features modern bedroom, dining room and living room furniture. Hickory Chair's collaboration with Susan and Kate Hable began in 2011 when the industry's first exclusive fabric collection, Hable Construction for Hickory Chair, was introduced. An exclusive throw pillow collection followed in 2013. Now, the Hable for Hickory Chair furniture collection offers refined, elegant lines that catch the eye.
This Nina Side Table is part of the Hable for Hickory Chair Collection. Two cantilevered shelves of Beeswing Primavera fit perfectly into the solid Walnut spine of this art deco inspired side table. Nina is grounded by a solid metal, antique brass finished ring with a perpendicular Antique Brass finished metal band providing additional strength to the Walnut spine. With the contrast between the light color of the Beeswing Primavera and the dark tone of the Walnut, this piece is perfect for two-tone finishes. The decorative bolts act not only as an assembly method but also an aesthetic value as well.
Inspired by the predecessors of mid-century design and pioneers like Gio Ponti, Scandinavian design, world history, travel, contemporary art, and textiles, Hable furniture is the natural progression of Hable Construction, the design firm that leads the field in color and textiles printed in the US. Hickory Chair is among the lines we carry at Panoply Interior Design, and we would be happy to give you more information about furnishings in this collection. Call us at 770-251-4557 or come see us in our new space at Knox Furniture, 75 Greenville St. in Newnan.

Heck, Andrea, I'm just puzzled by how you get so many pageviews! Wow!!! Most people do not leave a comment on mine either. There are a few dear souls that regularly leave comments (thank you, by the way, lol!) but a lot do not, boo! hoo! Not sure why. If you DO find out, please fill ME in.ReplyDelete
One thing I will say, when I've checked out some of the top bloggers, who have, maybe 8000-100000 followers, sometimes they only get 20 or 30 comments per post.
So, there you have it. That one's a mystery to me too. And, I was such help! Not!Replies
Sue, this is weird but I guess it does happen with other bloggers uh?Delete
Noy much of a deal, just puzzling.0;)
It's always strange how that happens. I think it depends on the topic of the post and how much attention it gets. I have projects that I loved and hardly any comments and then other things will get a lot and I didn't think they were anything special. Weird...ReplyDeleteReplies

100 Word Challenge - Tempted Too Far
This time he'd been tempted too far, and failed, had screwed the timings ...
Eden within his grasp. Then snared by the snake.
As the apple fell, the phone rang ...
"You messed up David. That wasn't on the cards." The Woman fell silent.
"Listen, I can make this right. There's another trade ..."
"Enough." The Woman interrupted. "You blew it. There's no going back. You know what happens next."
The phone cut dead.
David's mouth felt drier than The Client's account.
They were coming for him. But he wasn't giving in.
He held the final plan.
I'm linking up with JB47's 100 Word Challenge. This week's prompt was ... as the apple fell ...
