[Update: The whole album is now available on Bandcamp! Download the whole thing (and get a special bonus track), pick it song by song, or just press play and listen to it in-browser.]
When we put together the Destructoid Christmas Album last year, we never could have predicted how it would turn out. We created it because we thought it would be an amazingly fun thing to do -- the Destructoid editors singing Christmas songs! -- but we had no idea the thing would end up being filled with all kinds of awesome holiday spirit. I mean, there was just so much goddamn holiday spirit, I think we even brought a snowman to life after recording it.
With so much of that holiday spirit left over from last year, we thought we would do it again!
So, just in time for the holidays, we present to you The Second Annual Destructoid Christmas Album.
This one is bigger, badder, and merrier than ever before!
Click here to listen, or check it out here on Bandcamp. The track list and links for individual songs lie below. HAPPY HOLIDAYS, EVERYONE! We love you all more than words.

Title: The Minstrel's Tale
Author: Berit Haahr
Pages: 247
Cover Rating: 1/5
Character Rating: 4/5
Plot Rating: 3/5
Overall Rating: 3.5/5
(Just as a side note the next few books that I review I read a while a go, anywhere from a few months, till right about now.)
I was actually very surprised at how much I liked this book. I must say that I was not that keen on the writing style of the author.... Thought she was very good at coming up with the story... LOVED the characters, but I was not really that crazy, on how she wrote it... Like I was not happy with the way she used her words... In fact I disliked it so much that I almost did not read it! But I stuck with it, and I really LIKED IT!!!! So very happy with it! I thought that the characters were very believable, and I was happy about that... I would recommend it for anyone looking for an easy read, that likes historical fiction!
Determined not to marry the man her father has chosen for her, thirteen-year-old Judith disguises herself as a boy and sets off to become one of the King's Minstrels, yet the journey is long and so she must use her wits to keep herself safe and her identity hidden.

Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pro2000
Arch linux & Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Pro 2000
This info may be helpful in addition to the Arch Linux Installation guide. This may apply fairly well to many other Amilo computers, for example to M7400 which has very similar hardware.
IntelCeleron 1500Mhz, 256+512MB ram, 40Gb HD, CD-RW/DVD (QSI). Display adapter Intel 82852/82855. IrDA Fast Infrared, AC'97 Modem, PS/2 Keyboard & Synaptics Mouse, 3 USB ports, Firewire, 2 card slots. Network adapters:Broadcom 440x 10/100 and Intel PRO/Wireless 2200GB.
add driver b44 to loaded modules in /etc/rc.conf and to modprobe.conf, add
alias eth0 b44
Using arch's HW detection: hwd
pacman -S xorg hwd
This will write a new xorg.conf:
hwd -xa
pacman -S alsa-lib alsa-utils alsa-oss
Use alsamixer to set the default volume, use "m" to mute and unmute. Write the defaults with:
alsactl store
add "alsa" to loaded daemons in /etc/rc.conf add user to audio group:
gpasswd -a username audio
It works with the driver installed by hwd, but lacks most functions. Install the synapctics driver with
pacman -S synaptics
replace hwd-generated mouse configuration bit that looks like this:
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "PS/2 Mouse" . [etc etc] . EndSection
with synaptics configuration (thanks to Iphitus):
Section "Input Device" Identifier "Synaptics Mouse" Driver "synaptics" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Protocol" "auto-dev" Option "LeftEdge" "1700" Option "RightEdge" "5300" Option "TopEdge" "1700" Option "BottomEdge" "4200" Option "FingerLow" "25" Option "FingerHigh" "30" Option "MaxTapTime" "180" Option "MaxTapMove" "220" Option "MaxDoubleTapTime" "360" Option "FastTaps" "on" Option "VertScrollDelta" "100" Option "HorizScrollDelta" "100" Option "MinSpeed" "0.09" Option "MaxSpeed" "0.18" Option "AccelFactor" "0.0015" Option "EmulateMidButtonTime""100" Option "EdgeMotionMinZ" "30" Option "EdgeMotionMaxZ" "35" Option "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "100" Option "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "150" Option "EdgeMotionUseAlways" "off" Option "TapButton1" "1" Option "RBCornerButton" "3" Option "LBCornerButton" "2" Option "CoastingSpeed" "0.1" Option "SHMConfig" "on" EndSection
Don't forget to add this to the ServerLayout section in the beginning of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, and remove the previous mouse.
Section "ServerLayout" ..blaa blaa.. InputDevice "Synaptics Mouse" "CorePointer"
Add user to groups (given you have created a user):
gpasswd -a username video gpasswd -a username optical gpasswd -a username storage
This will need a kernel higher than 2.6.10! IMPORTANT:Note that upgrading Arch 0.7 with pacman -Su will break the system unless the DevFS -> Udev transition is made after the install, see guidelines here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=15585). For wireless, the relevant driver is ipw2200:
pacman -S ipw2200
Add ipw2200 to loaded modules in rc.conf
Append rc.conf to include eth1 (this is a static IP configuration)
eth0="eth0 192.168.2.253 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255" eth1="eth1 192.168.2.252 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.255" INTERFACES=(lo eth0 eth1)
and to modprobe.conf, add line
alias eth1 ipw2200
Amilo requires a "kill switch" module that turns the wireless card radio on. Get fsam7400 module (0.4.0) from http://linux.zwobbl.de/pub/ unpack and install with make, make install. Don't need to add it to the loaded modules in /etc/rc.conf.
Then, to automate the wireless connection on boot, add the following to /etc.rc.local (thanks to nahoj1976):
echo 100 > /sys/class/firmware/timeout modprobe fsam7400 radio=1 autooff=0 autoload=0 modprobe ipw2200
After this just the iwconfig and route settings need to be ok for the wireless to work (after reboot of course, unless you modprobe the above commands yourself!). In my case
iwconfig eth1 essid Mynetworkname mode Managed rate 11M route add default 192.168.2.1 eth1
These can be in /etc/rc.local. Now the laptop will be online and iwconfig (from root) should give something like this:
eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"Mynetworkname" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: 00:11:50:34:A9:53 Bit Rate=11 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality=91/100 Signal level=-38 dBm Noise level=-82 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:3
Works normally, memorystick has to be mounted by superuser, although there are programs like submount one can install to automate it.
Seems to work normally: Battery life is visible automatically (in KDE at least), and screen goes to power saving mode after a period of inactivity.

Saturday we spent the day in Utah with family. Both sides of the family - one in the afternoon, one in the evening. My girls were in heaven. Gray and Zander just rolled with it.
We got to spend time with Grandpa who is a photographer and loves to teach the kids how to take pictures.
The cousins we spent time with first have lived back east for 8 years, so it was a lot of fun for my kids to get some quality time playing with them. They only live two hours away now!
My redhead brother holding my redhead son.
Having ice cream at the same place my partner and I had our first date. The girls thought that was so exciting and romantic and .... "Wait! Does this mean that I have to marry Grayson because we're having ice cream together here?!?!" No, sweetie, you're fine.
We went by the big Mormon temple there to get a picture taken with a Flat Stanley we're hosting and the kids rolled down the HUGE hill before I could stop them.
It *is* kind of an irresistible hill.
I have no pictures of the girls playing with their cousins at the next house. We got there, I was surrounded by dance costumes and giggles and then they all disappeared for two hours.
So Zander and I played with sidewalk chalk ...
and I tried to breathe and stay calm as Gray zoomed down the driveway over and over on a skateboard.
I will not be an overprotective mom. I will not be an overprotective mom. I will not be an overprotective mom. I will not be an overprotective mom.

True to his words, the Executive Director of the Danquah Institute and a leading member of the opposition New Patriotic Party, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darkoh is said to have hanged his political gloves after several years of receiving and throwing weighty jabs at his opponents in the political ring.
The NPP's Spin Doctor, who is noted for using phrases like "at the end of the day" in almost all his sentences, had earlier last year made a passionate vow to bid fare well to politics effective 31st December, no matter the outcome of the 2012 elections.
The decision to quit politics, according to Gabby, as he is affectionately called, was taken about two years ago, but happenings on the political scene in 2012 had greatly reinforced that position, hence the announcement of his exit from politics late last month.
It would be recalled that the Gabby voluntarily and openly announced last year that he had decided "to quit politics soon to concentrate on more important things."
One of the reasons he said had necessitated his exit from politics was the ugly incident that took place between him and the outgoing Deputy Minister for Youth and Sports, Dr. Omani Boamah on Multi TV and Joy FM's current affairs program, Newsfile when he was quoted to have used foul language on the latter for no apparent provocation
During an Interview on Badwam on Adom Channel on Multi TV last year, Gaby said politics in Ghana was becoming frustrating for him and therefore his decision to quit was nonnegotiable.
"One professor or Doctor, I'm not quite sure, wrote in the papers yesterday (Monday 26th September 2011) advising Nana Addo to take me off his campaign team because I insulted Dr. Omani Boamah on Newsfile over the weekend. I was not so pleased with his comments because I'm not even an official member of Nana Addo's campaign team. These and several comments are why I want to quit as soon as possible," he stated.
Gabby said he had concentrated the last 10 years of his life on politics and that he now thinks it is time for him to concentrate on his law profession and building his family. "At the moment, my focus more is to help with good policies to develop this nation".
With majority of Ghanaians still having this declarations by Gabby ingrained in their minds, the social media networks, particularly facebook and twitter was on December 31, 2012 inundated with questions on whether the Executive Director of the Danquah Institute had really backed his words with action?
Whiles some "facebookers" and twits made mockery of Gabby as not exuding much-maturity to live up to his own words, others have threaten not to take him serious should he fail to quite politics as he had promised.
As it stands now, all Ghanaians are waiting patiently on Gabby to do the honorable and simple thing by officially announcing his departure from the political lime light and take a backstage
Meanwhile, checks by The Al-Hajj reveal that, Gabby Asare Otchere-Darko, who is also the Executive Director of the Danquah Institute will make an official pronouncement on this matter very soon.

BOUQUET BOOTH/STREET STORM – While Street Storm walked the shedrow at trainer Steve Margolis' barn on a cool and wet Tuesday morning, her immediate racing future was being hashed out by Dann Glick, head of the partnership of Right Time Racing that owns the filly.
Would it be the $1 million Kentucky Oaks (GI) at a mile and an eighth on the main track on Friday for Street Storm, or would she go a few races earlier on the card in the $100,000 Edgewood Presented by Kentucky National Insurance at 1 1/16 miles on the Matt Winn Turf Course?
The decision: Street Storm will run in the 137th and richest running of the Kentucky Oaks.
"We are going to give it a shot and go for it," Glick said. "She is improving by the day and you don't get this opportunity very often."
Shaun Bridgmohan, who rode Street Storm in turf race at Fair Grounds in February, has been named to ride the gray Stormy Atlantic filly in the Oaks.
Street Storm drew post position 10 for Friday's race.
The defection of likely Oaks morning line favorite R Heat Lightning played a role in the decision to go to the Oaks.
"When (trainer) Todd Pletcher's filly went out, we had to take a look at the race again," Glick said. "We're going to take a shot. I feel this filly has a lot of potential."
Right Time Racing also owns Bouquet Booth, who galloped a mile and a half after the renovation break over a sloppy track with Alex Castanon up. Fourth in the Central Bank Ashland (GI) in her most recent start, Bouquet Booth will be ridden by Robby Albarado and break from post position eight.
Glick was asked if he had $2 left in his pocket, which filly would he invest in.
"I honestly don't know," Glick said. "Obviously Bouquet Booth is a proven commodity and has competed against Kathmanblu and Lilacs and Lace. She jumped a shadow in the Ashland and in the Rachel Alexandra (at Fair Grounds in February), she was rank. If she can relax, I think she will be a factor.
"They have both trained wonderfully and they are two different types of horses. I'd take the $2 and do a dollar exacta box."
The two fillies were scheduled to school in the paddock Tuesday afternoon during the fourth race.
DAISY DEVINE – James M. Miller's Daisy Devine walked the shedrow in Barn 43 one day after breezing three furlongs through the stretch in :35.80.
The Fair Grounds Oaks (GII) winner came out of her work "very good," according to trainer Andrew McKeever. "I was going to take her out to train a little bit (today) but with the weather I just decided, nah, not worth it. She worked fast enough yesterday she doesn't need to do anything today."
Daisy Devine will again sport blinkers on Friday, as she has for her past four starts.
"When she came to us she was virtually impossible to train without blinkers on," McKeever said. "You just couldn't. She'd just see things out of the sky that weren't there and would spook her. It's something that give her some security. They're tiny little half-inch cups. They call them 'cheaters' and I keep them on her because she's comfortable with them. Most horses I wouldn't bother training them in them every day but she needs them."
Daisy Devine will jog Wednesday and gallop Thursday, McKeever said.
James Graham has the mount on Daisy Devine, a 20-1 shot on the morning line. Daisy Devine will break from post position nine.
HER SMILE/R HEAT LIGHTNING – Celebrity chef Bobby Flay's Her Smile had a quiet Tuesday morning at Barn 34, merely walking the shedrow in advance of her now-confirmed date in Friday's $1 million Kentucky Oaks.
Trainer Todd Pletcher, who conferred with his owner Monday about her possible run in the nine-furlong headliner, noted Tuesday morning that the green light was in order.
"Bobby wanted to go and we're a go," Pletcher said. "My other horse (R Heat Lightning, who was withdrawn from the race Monday when an apparent minor injury was noted) coming out was a factor. That was one less good one (R Heat Lightning was going to be the likely morning line favorite for the Oaks) he had to beat."
Her Smile will be handled by Eclipse Award winner Garrett Gomez on Friday. The rider had worked the Virginia-bred daughter of Include on Sunday morning when she covered four furlongs in :50.40 on a "sloppy" track.
In the post position draw Tuesday morning for the Oaks, Her Smile was assigned post position seven in the 13-horse lineup.
R Heat Lightning was "doing well" Tuesday morning according to Pletcher. The trainer was alerted to a problem in the filly's right front leg Monday following her jog and discovered heat in her knee, a warning sign of possible problems. After conferring with the filly's owners, the decision was made to withdraw from the race Monday afternoon.
"She (R Heat Lightning) had a good morning," Pletcher said. "We're going to take her to Rood & Riddle Clinic tomorrow and hope this is only a minor setback. It is an unfortunate situation. She was doing so well and we wanted this race. But that's horse racing."
HOLY HEAVENS – Drs. K.K. & Vilasini Jayaraman's Holy Heavens walked the shed row for the second straight morning after a two-minute mile on Sunday.
"She'll go back to the track to gallop tomorrow," trainer Benard Chatters said.
Chatters is starting his first filly in the Oaks, as are the Jayaramans.
A Louisiana native, Chatters has been training for the Jayaramans "for about six months" and cares for "about 20" of their horses.
"This filly, true story, I broke this horse's maiden at Delta and I told the Doctor, 'Man, we may make the Oaks with this filly,' " Chatters said. "He just kind of laughed and said, 'I hope so.' "
Listed at 50-1 on the morning line, Holy Heavens will break from post position 11 and be ridden by Kent email@example.com – Fox Hill Farms' Joyful Victory returned to the track Tuesday morning under trainer Larry Jones
"She schooled in the paddock, galloped, came back and she's happy," Jones said. "All is good."
The gray daughter of Tapit turned in a bullet five-furlong work in :59.20 over the wet track Sunday under jockey Gabriel Saez.
Mike Smith, who has been aboard Joyful Victory in her two victories of 2011, will have the mount Friday and break from post position one. Joyful Victory is the 5-2 morning line favorite in the Kentucky Oaks field of 13 3-year-old fillies.
KATHMANBLU – Golden Rod Stakes (GII) winner Kathmanblu went through her routine paces Tuesday morning under exercise rider Jose Lopez, galloping a mile and a half over the sloppy going.
The daughter of 2006 Kentucky Derby runner-up Bluegrass Cat galloped mid-track and appeared to be taking to the footing. That should be no surprise as she's a stakes winner on dirt and turf, as well as Grade 1-placed on Polytrack in Keeneland's Central Bank Ashland Stakes (GI) last time out.
Owned by Five D Thoroughbreds and Wind River Stable, Kathmanblu has been favored in each of her past four starts, and five of her past six. She figures to contend for Oaks favoritism in the wake of likely public choice R Heat Lightning being withdrawn from race consideration on Monday.
Kathmanblu will break from post position four under Julien Leparoux and is the 4-1 co-second choice on the Oaks' morning line.
LILACS AND LACE – James Covello and partners' Lilacs and Lace galloped 1 3/8 miles under exercise rider Eliel DeJesus at Churchill Downs on Tuesday morning. Trainer John Terranova expressed complete satisfaction with the 3-year-old filly's preparation for Friday's Kentucky Oaks.
"She's just enjoying it out there. She's very sharp; she's very alert; she's got great energy; and her mind's right where it needs to be this week," Terranova said. "She's just a classy little filly. Hopefully, things go well for her all week."
Lilacs and Lace, who won the Central Bank Ashland Stakes (G1) over Keeneland's Polytrack surface last time, has run only once on dirt, an off-the-board finish in her debut at California's Solano County Fair.
"She's a really easy moving filly. She gets across any surface pretty nice. I'm not concerned with the surface," Terranova said. "As far as the dirt goes, until she goes out and proves us wrong and doesn't handle it or doesn't run as well on it, right now she's doing as good as she can do."
Listed at 12-1 on the morning line, Lilacs and Lace will break from post position two under Javier Castellano.
PLUM PRETTY – Peachtree Stable's Plum Pretty walked the shedrow Tuesday morning, a day after she breezed a half-mile in :48.80 over the sloppy track.
Trainer Bob Baffert said the filly came out of her work in good order.
Listed at 5-1 on the morning line for the Oaks, Plum Pretty will break from post position 12 and be ridden by Martin Garcia.
ST. JOHN'S RIVER – Dede McGehee's St. John's River galloped 1 ¾ miles "and played in the mud" during the Oaks-Derby training session, according to regular exercise rider Robert Wright.
"She looked like a dressage horse jogging back she was so fresh," Wright said, referring to the way St. John's River extended her front legs. "She was very happy. She kind of plays like that from time to time."
Trainer Andy Leggio Jr. was asked to compare St. John's River to his most successful charge, the Grade I-winning filly and all-time leading Louisiana-bred earner, Happy Ticket.
"St. John's River strictly wants to go a mile-and-an-eighth, or maybe farther," Leggio said. "She's a one-dimensional horse. If I'm going to compare her with Happy Ticket, well, Happy Ticket won at four furlongs, six furlongs, a mile, a mile-and-a-sixteenth, a mile-and-an-eighth, on the turf, on the mud and on a fast track. At this point in time this filly hasn't done all that yet, but maybe she will."
Another filly St. John's River will naturally draw comparisons to is her full sister, the multiple Grade I winner Panty Raid, bred by McGehee.
"She looked like a little old rat," Leggio said of St. John's River when she first came to his barn last year. "Small, tiny. But Dede, the owner, told me she's going to be a good one. Dede sold Panty Raid but she said, 'I'm not selling this one, she's going to be my Oaks horse.' Well, I just let it go in one ear and out the other. But it's developed into a true story."
St. John's River drew the outside post position No. 13 for the Oaks and is 30-1 on the morning line.
SUAVE VOIR FAIRE – Fleur de Lis Racing LLC's Suave Voir Faire jogged early Tuesday morning at the HighPointe Training Center in La Grange, Ky., and was en route to Churchill Downs by van shortly after, trainer Speedy Smithwick reported at 1 p.m.
"She's on the way now," he said. "They had to go on (U.S.) 42 because of a wreck on 71, but she should be here (by 1:30 p.m.)."
Smithwick was already at Churchill Downs, where he had readied Suave Voir Fare's new home in Barn 43, Stall 4.
The Suave filly drew post position No. 5 for the Kentucky Oaks and was projected at 50-1 by morning line oddsmaker Mike Battaglia.
"I think it's a good post," Smithwick said. "She broke real good last time and she ran up with them into the first turn. Then she gets lazy for a quarter-mile or so and makes one run. Hopefully the blinkers will help her lay a little bit closer."
Suave Voir Fare has been outfitted with blinkers (described by Smithwick as "little French ones with holes") only once before, two starts back, finishing third in a two-turn allowance at Fair Grounds. The equipment change was suggested by Smithwick's cousin, Andrew McKeever, trainer of Oaks contender Daisy Devine and the trainer of record for Suave Voir Faire for her two races in New Orleans.
"He thought they helped her," Smithwick said.
SUMMER SOIREE – Team Valor International's Summer Soiree galloped a mile over the sloppy track Tuesday morning during the training period reserved for Derby and Oaks horses.
Assistant trainer Dave Rock accompanied the filly, ridden by David Nava, to the track.
Listed at 5-1 on the morning line, Summer Soiree will break from post position three and be ridden by Gabriel Saez.
ZAZU – Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Moss' classy gray filly Zazu was airborne from California Tuesday morning aboard a flight that had left Ontario Airport east of Los Angeles at approximately 4 a.m. The Tex Sutton charter held several California stakes horses bound for assignments this weekend at Churchill Downs, including the 3-year-old gelding Comma to the Top, who has a scheduled run in Saturday's Kentucky Derby.
Zazu, by the Kentucky sire Tapit, arrived in Louisville at around 11:30 a.m. and arrived at Churchill Downs at 1 p.m. She is housed in Barn 36 in one of its first three stalls.
Trainer John Sadler and the Mosses were scheduled to fly to Kentucky on the owners' private jet Tuesday afternoon.
In the post position draw for the Oaks on Tuesday morning, Zazu was assigned post position six in the 13-horse field. She'll be handled in the nine-furlong headliner by top California rider Joel Rosario.

December 11, 2007, 06:35:48 PM »
I thought I'd post some of my old unreleased stuff for your amusement and/or enjoyment.
Marie - 3:01 - 1996 - piano recorded on a boom box - file size: 5.6 mb
http://relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/03 jkn_log_03_marie.mp3
This is a short piano song - recorded on a boom box so don't expect even close to good sound quality! However, I really like this track so thought I'd share it. I recorded it in 1996 while my wife was away for three weeks with work. It was written for her. You can hear our two dogs eating and making tinkly noises with their tags as they walk around - and they bark at the end as I was finishing.
Evolutionary Dawn - 18:57 - 1989 - 4 track - file size: 34.8 mb
http://relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/01 jkn_log_01_evolutionary_dawn.mp3
Recorded sometime in 1989 on a 4-track recorder. There are only 3 tracks used. First track recorded was the drums using a Roland R8 drum machine and Korg SDD-1200 dual delay. Second track is the pads coming from a Korg DSS-1 at times run through a Rat Distortion pedal. Third is the bass/lead line, played on DSS-1, run through a crybaby wah pedal.
The drums are only three patterns, however, I'm playing live over top of them all the way through. I ran it out of voices every so often which had a nifty effect of removing some of the other drums - making it sound a bit more active and changing. The tracks were recorded basically in three straight passes - it's almost entirely improv. No overdubs or punching in, etc...
This was one of my first big long "epics" (as a friend called them... ha). There are two others from this same year that I'll post in a while.
A Hole In Time - 14:03 - 1989 - 4 Track - file size: 25.8 mb
http://www.relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/02 jkn_log_02_a_hole_in_time.mp3
Added 12/14/2007
This is a 4 track recording which uses a few tape tricks - one track is running backwards the entire way through. The beginning is made up of several tracks recorded at double speed and then played back at normal speed - some forward some backwards - a lot of punching in on this. The drums... ha - I didn't have a borrowed drum machine handy at the time so I had to use a sample I pulled from a Psychedelic Furs track (called Wedding Song I think) - I'm running it through a borrowed Art reverb unit (I think it was John's (that Vir Unis guy) or his brothers...).
During the mixdown from 4-track to stereo - I'm playing drums "live" on the keys of my DSS-1 - so you'll hear lots of other drum stuff going on besides just the drum loop...
I mentioned earlier that one track is running backwarks throughout the track - that's a Juno 106. The "flute" playing is me on my DSS-1 - I do like the little flute solos.
As you get closer to the end of the track you get into more and more feedback and dense noise - coming from everything and the kitchen sink (DSS-1, Prophet 600, Juno 106, feedback from my dual delay SDD-1200, etc...) - the strings and everything else are DSS-1.
There's one thing I utterly hate about this track - and wish I could remove it, but I've lost the original 4-track and only have the mixdown - and frankly if I went back to the original I'd lose the drum track recorded during mixdown... Anyway - I hate the vocal sample when it breaks from the intro section into the main groove. WHAT was I thinking??? Oh well... it was almost 20 years ago... ha!
A Terrible Dream - 15:55 - 1989 - 4-track - file size: 29.2 mb
http://www.relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/06 jkn_log_06_a_terrible_dream.mp3
The last of my three "epics" from 1989... this one I haven't shown very many people at all due to the heavy (over) use of samples. I've never been a huge fan of samples in my own music - though listened to tons of music that used samples frequently. This truck uses drums fairly heavily - although it's a very laid back slower beat. Many, many punch ins on this - since I only had a 4-track recorder borrowed from work - there were very limited tracks to work with (aren't computer DAW's freaking amazing?). There's some ping ponging down of multiple tracks to one track to make room for another track. Also - many different instruments are recorded on the same track - so at the beginning it's one instrument, in the middle something else, etc...
The drum machine is a Korg DD5 if I remember right. I always thought of the DD5 and it's big brother the DD1 as kind of "sluggish" sounding - the drum samples were lower bit rate - it felt sluggish to play - it lended itself to slower beats for me.
Most of instruments are Korg DSS-1 - note, there's no sequencing - I think I've only used a sequencer on one, maybe two tracks - and none of these were. Heck - you can hear me go out of time from time to time - so the lack of sequencing and quantizing should be obvious... ha...
Of course - I like it that way.
Samples samples samples... the train is from the movie Top Secret. "You're safe now" is Sting from The Bride. "I've had a terrible dream" is from the 1960 version of the movie The Haunting. The screechy door slam whoooom noise is from the movie The Abyss. Oh! Almost forgot - there's a big orchestra stab stolen from Depeche Mode... eek. I like how I used it though - especially underneath the trumpet solo.
The "trumpet" solo is a Yamaha SY22 keyboard - Yes - I threw the chord into the solo near the end as a sort - yep, it's a keyboard not a trumpet moment. As far as the trumpet playing -I think I got the breathing right for the different phrasings and I like several moments in the solo. Total improv - one take - as is the entire track actually... (even all the punch ins for different instruments were one takes...)
The last few minutes starts breaking into my more atonal playing - and the feedback really starts to take the forefront in a musical way - I think this is my first song to really push feedback so far forward and yet not be grinding industrial noise, but more of a musical ambient type of journey.
Still - 1:22 - ~1992 - Yamaha SY77 sequence to cassette - file size: 2.6 mb
http://www.relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/04 jkn_log_04_still.mp3
Back around 1992 I was still teaching piano at the music store that I'd worked at for 6 years - and one of my students called in sick so I toyed around with a Yamaha SY77 synth for a half hour. I recorded this little sort of light jazzy sort of thing which I liked and dumped to cassette. It's a sequence - but I didn't have quantizing turned on (or at least it was at 1/96 or something ridiculous). The drums are just played on the keys live through the track (which is somewhat painfully obvious in spots... ha.).
Anyway - I like this short little track - it's not ambient or fantastic or anything - but it was fun to throw together.
Thrown - ~1993 - 4:13 - Yamaha RX-8 pattern sequence straight to cassette - file size: 7.8 mb
http://www.relaxedmachinery.com/music/log/07 jkn_log_07_thrown.mp3
This is totally different from anything posted above. A little closer to industrial than ambient... although calling this industrial is completely laughable... Lets just say it's instrumental that leans a tad more towards Skinny Puppy.
Another "waiting for piano students" moment at the music store - I think there was a bad snowstorm so a bunch cancelled. I took a Yamaha RX-8 drum machine and midi'd it up to 6 or 7 different synths at the store - SY's, DX's, the monstrous Roland RD-something or other ( I guess I could go look it up - the one with all the sliders that failed to sell well - but was a cool mix of digital with analogue like controls...). Anyway - this was a fun experiment.
The track is completely live -there are no overdubs. I'm changing volume and patches on the synths - and playing the Roland RD-____ throughout the track. The geeetar solo is the RD...

I'm just kidding! I love, love, LOVE your piano song, it's so beautiful, (and it also gets HUGE romantical bonus points, which makes it even better)! (sigh, romance)...

Unfortunately, I'm not a very romantic guy. I have my moments I guess.
Thanks for listening! I'm very proud of that recording - even though it's bad in the sound quality sense, it's a moment in time that can't be recreated - and I love hearing my dogs, London and Mickey, walking around.
I'm adding another song to the first post - another 'epic' from 1989 called "a hole in time". I admit - I've never been all that good at naming tracks... ha.

Oh Jesse - you know you will always be my 9th love.
I'll never forget...
Anyway... I posted a 4th track... "A Terrible Dream" which is the last of my 3 big "epics" from 1989. I hope you enjoy these three tracks - all are very different but share sort of a similar theme of longer eploration type tracks - and these three are definitely the sort of "pivot" point in my song writing of going from the more synthpop and industrial and shorter tracks I was writing to longer, leaning towards ambient, leaning towards slowing down and loosening up, maybe just exploring new possibilities is a good term. All are 4 track and all are mostly on borrowed equipment except for my old friends the Korg DSS-1 and SDD-1200 delay - which at that time I was really starting to get to know well and discovering what they were good at and how I could push myself in using them. I still use them now almost 20 years later.
Thanks again for listening and I'd love to hear any comments in the thread or via pm.

I added two more tracks from 1992 and 1993-ish, Still and Thrown. One is very short and more on the light jazzy side of life. The other is a bit more of a noisy-instrumental experimental track.
p.s. If you want to poke fun at the geeeetarrr solo - it's completely fine by me. I make fun of it too...

Starting a new job, I know you have to be prepared for anything that might be thrown your way. That being said, I was NOT prepared for the task that Manjula gave me Friday morning!
For a few years now, Vermont Woods Studios has been volunteering with the Meals on Wheels program here in Vernon, VT. As part of our mission, Vermont Woods Studios is committed to giving back to our community. The Meals On Wheels Association of America is the oldest and largest national organization composed of local, community-based Senior Nutrition Programs in all 50 U.S. states. MOWAA works to provide over one million meals to seniors every day, with close to one million volunteers helping to make it happen. Friday, I became one of those volunteers.
With Peggy out of the office, the VWS staff saw a great opportunity for the "Freshman Class" to learn what community service means within the company. So with Kendall as our guide, Heather B. and I set out to deliver the weekend meals across Vernon.
Despite a few moments of confusion, we had a great time! Being able to provide someone with a warm meal, a nice conversation and a smile is a wonderful feeling. You can tell that each person truly appreciates this service and enjoys the company of those who provide it.
I would undoubtedly suggest to anyone with a little extra time to volunteer with Meals on Wheels. It only takes an hour of your time once a week, so why not sign up today?

Women are magnetically attracted to the sex pheromones of healthy, strong, fertile men as part of a subconscious, instinctive drive to procreate and maintain our species.
And not every guy gives off the SAME pheromone "scent":
Studies over the last 12 years have proven that healthy, fit, attractive guys tend to give off pheromone scents that are preferred by women over the scents of guys who are overweight, out-of-shape, and – yes – less attractive.
(Click here if you'd like to read excerpts from the studies.)
It's not an urban myth: tall, dark, and handsome actually does SMELL BETTER to women!
So here at Nexus Pheromones™, we aim to give guys an edge with women...
All with the aim of arousing an instinctive sexual response!
All men release pheromones into the air via our sweat...
... And these chemical messengers subconsciously communicate information to women about our physical state, genetic make up, immunities, and more, all in hopes of arousing an instinctive sexual response.
Ever seen guys you've labeled as "ugly" or "jerks" surrounded by hot women... or wondered how some guys effortlessly attract women like flies to honey?
You've likely been witnessing the effects of sex pheromones in action!
When it's working for us, women exposed to our sex pheromones are typically more sexually responsive to our advances – smiling, flirting, touching us, approaching us, offering open invitations to explore a more intimate relationship.
This instinctive sexual response is called "The Releaser Effect"...
... And it plays a key role is establishing sexual chemistry, rapport, and attraction between you and women.
The problem is, "The Releaser Effect" may not be working for you for 2 reasons:
Today's society dictates that we shower daily, wear deodorant, regularly wash our clothes, etc., all effectively washing away and MASKING our natural pheromone scent from women.
Your natural pheromone scent may be altered or weakened by sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, average health, etc. - meaning you may not smell as good to women on a subconscious level!
That's why many guys are now turning to Nexus Pheromones™ to give themselves a REAL, noticeable advantage with women.
Nexus Pheromones™ has been formulated with reference to over 12 years of cumulative pheromone research, including input from the award-winning human sex pheromone scientist James Vaughn Kohl...
... The Director of Product Development for the FDA-registered, cGMP-compliant manufacturing facility where Nexus Pheromones™ is blended and bottled.
It's a proprietary blend of 7 human pheromone compounds that include:
Androstenone – signals dominance; attracts potential mates
Alpha-androstenol – induces feelings of comfort & attraction
Androsterone – communicates masculinity; mood-elevating effects on women
Epiandrosterone – may communicate youthfulness
Beta-androstenol – the "icebreaker pheromone"
Androstedienone – heightens sexual responsiveness; elicits feelings of caring
Androstanone – powerful, masculine effect
To read more about the Nexus Pheromones™ formulation, click here now.
Simply spray the pulse points on your neck and chest with Nexus Pheromones™ (as you would apply any cologne) and then watch as women respond more positively to you in their body language, communication, and advances.
Just 1-3 sprays will produce results for roughly 8-10 hours.
And it can even be worn alongside your favorite cologne without dampening the effects!
Obviously, creating initial attraction is only the first step in closing the deal...
... No matter whether you're looking for a potential mate, trying to spice up an existing relationship, or just want a little short-term fun.
But imagine the confidence this secret edge will give you as beautiful women are suddenly more eager to talk and flirt with you.
Imagine women competing for YOUR attention instead of the other way around.
Science has well-documented the effects of pheromones on women's level of attraction and sexual responsiveness to men. Click here to read the studies.

Living With Two Diseases: HIV and Alcoholism
I've spoken at length on this blog about the disease of HIV and how it affects me and my life. But I live with another disease that is just as devastating and deadly. It is also a disease that has no cure but can be "managed" with proper treatment. The disease I refer to is also one that I'm sure affects many of the readers of TheBody.com, it is the disease of alcoholism/addiction. This is a disease that I believe I was born with, just like I know I was born gay, and both have shaped my life in a big way.
My parents tell of an incident when I was 3 or 4 years old and was sent upstairs to nap. I went to nap in my parents' room and got into my mother's vanity. I was playing with her make-up and jewels when I came across some pills. In those days, drug companies sent sample prescription drugs to doctor's homes (my dad is a doctor). The pretty pills I found looked delicious, so I tried one. It tasted horrible, but I figured they were so pretty, one of them had to taste good. So I wound up eating an entire week's worth of Dexedrine (dextroamphetamine), a prescription diet pill or "upper".
That evening, my parents noticed something was wrong when, for the first time in my life, I refused to sit down and eat dinner. Evidently, I couldn't sit still and they knew something was wrong because I was typically obsessed with food. My dad looked into my eyes and ran upstairs to find the empty pill container. It was too late to pump my stomach, so my parents took turns staying awake with me for the next three days as I told my life story over and over and redecorated the house. Hearing this, it seems fairly obvious that I was born an addict and born gay.
I always knew that I preferred guys. I don't know how, but the boys in middle school figured that out and I was harassed and called fem, faggot, and gay boy. I knew it was true and I was so filled with shame that I just wanted to die. I didn't have the courage to kill myself, but I did start working out at home and soon got big enough to defend myself.
But the shame I felt at being gay, coupled with my Catholic upbringing, was the very shame that filled me when I met the only thing that quieted that shame: alcohol.
I first got drunk at the age of 15 at a religious retreat and I drank until I threw up and blacked out. But, for the very first time in my life, I felt good and was comfortable in my skin! And that's when the disease of alcoholism took control of my young life.
By the time I was 16, I had done every drug out there -- including snorting heroin and I could never get enough of anything. I later learned at a drug and alcohol rehab that the experts feel that shame is the root of all addictions and it is what fuels it. I was so ashamed of who I was and of being gay, that looking back that makes perfect sense to me now!
I took that shame with me to college, where I continued to use and abuse drugs and alcohol on a daily basis until that shame was suddenly lifted. After graduating from Boston University in 1980, I went home to the Hamptons in Long Island for one last summer of life guarding on the ocean and waitering at the Club Pierre.
This summer was different. I fell in love with one of the gay waiters, a beautiful young man named Frank. After telling my parents three times that I wasn't coming home because I was sleeping at Frank's house, they called a meeting in my father's den.
Now, I have always described my parents as enlightened, open-minded, loving parents, but this night they blew my mind.
They sat me down. My father was first to speak. He said that they heard most of the waiters at Club Pierre were gay and since I was spending nights with Frank, they assumed I might be gay. They wanted me to make sure I knew that if I was gay, they had no problem with it and would continue to love me no matter what. Furthermore, they said that I was not to listen to what the church, the media or anyone else had to say about homosexuality, that it was perfectly normal and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
They went on to say that I could be as open as I wanted to here in the Hamptons and in places like New York City, but that I may go to places where I would have to consider hiding it because there were ignorant people in this world who may want to hurt me because of it.
Finally, they said that if any of their friends had a problem with it, then they would no longer be their friends! And, by the way, they'd like to meet Frank.
By then I was in tears and looking back, I see this as a time when the daily shame I lived with up until that point was lifted! I enjoyed a wonderful, somewhat normal, shame-free life for seven years, until Valentine's Day of 1987, when all that shame came roaring back into my life with my HIV diagnosis. And I turned back to the only treatment I knew that would quiet the shame: drugs and alcohol.
In my years of drinking and drugging, I came so very close to dying from an overdose or from drinking and driving (I got three DWIs [driving while intoxicated] and eventually lost my license in 1988). The disease of alcoholism has defined my life far more than the disease of HIV and it continues to do so.
Although I have been clean and sober since 1992, my long term relationships in sobriety have been with active alcoholics/addicts, adult children of alcoholics or rage-aholics, so I now find myself attending Al-anon as well as AA (Alcoholics Anonymous).
I still struggle with the toll alcoholism has taken on the lives of the people I love, although I much prefer the medicine for my alcoholism -- which consists of entering a room full of love and sharing my experience, strength and hope with other alcoholics -- as opposed to the chemotherapy that I take for my HIV.
I find both diseases devastating in their ability to destroy lives and families and relationships, but I find the disease of alcoholism/addiction to be far more destructive to relationships because it is often coupled with denial. With the help of 12-step programs, I have found the serenity and spirituality I need to survive both diseases. However, it breaks my heart that too many people I love so dearly just can't seem to get the help they need!

Saturday was Minnesota State's night to break a losing streak, as it snapped a five-game slide with a 3-2 victory over Michigan Tech. The win, erased the bad feelings from Friday night's "embarrassment" (Rylan Galiardi's word).
Galiardi had a goal and an assist, while Eriah Hayes and Kael Mouillierat scored the other MSU goals.
No cushion was safe, though, as Tech's Brett Olson scored twice, once on a 2-on-1 that made it 2-1 with 10 seconds left in the second period, and again on the power play with 3:46 left in regulation.
Minnesota State put a season-high 45 shots on goal, and goalie Phil Cook stopped 30 shots for his fourth win of the season.

Brantley Gilbert Admits He Has Nightmares About Tim McGraw
Brantley Gilbert may look like a tough guy on the outside, with his all-black attire and leather accessories, but there is one thing he's afraid of and he even has nightmares about it. His biggest fear involves country star Tim McGraw.
Gilbert, who is currently opening for McGraw on his Two Lanes of Freedom Tour, along with Love and Theft, tells Country Weekly that he has recurring nightmares about the 'Highway Don't Care' hitmaker. "I'm telling ya, I keep on having the same nightmare where Tim knocks on the door of my tour bus to go work out with him," laughs Gilbert.
While that may be a dream come true for fans who are on the same workout level as McGraw --and there probably aren't many-- Gilbert know his body's limits.
He adds, "I mean, I like to do some power lifting and strength training because I just can't run because of some knee and back problems . . . but Tim? I mean, he is on a whole other level. That man is like the Terminator. I'm pretty sure he bleeds chrome."
Although he knows he can't necessarily keep up with McGraw in the gym, Gilbert says humorously, "I bought me some Air Jordans and some tall white socks with three stripes at the top and a pair of shorts. I thought I wore a large in shorts, but I didn't know there was a new style in shorts. These shorts hang down past my calf muscles. I also got a shirt that says 'Run Like a Boss' since my nickname is Boss."
Donning his brand spankin' new workout apparel, the 'Halfway to Heaven' singer took a selfie and texted it to Tim. "I was all duded up and my socks were all pulled up," he says laughing, "with the message: 'Anyone wanna play ball?'"
At least his nightmares don't terrify him too much. Judging from Gilbert's super-fit physique, he could definitely keep up with the country music icon for at least a little while. Plus, his gorgeous fiance Jana Kramer thinks he's super cute, and he didn't have to perform any superhuman feats of strength to get her!

A Dream Come True
Armand Provost spent three worthwhile years of his life dedicated to breathing new life into his '52 Chevrolet dream truck. During that time the
three-window got a small-block between the two-toned black fenders, a Turbo 350 under its red hood, and a more than able '74 Camaro rearend under
its glossy oak bed floor. Armand rolled up his sleeves and did all the work on the 3100, including the metal and paintwork. Inside the cab is a
stock bench covered in red and black velour to match the exterior. The '52 still has the stock I-beam and steering up front, so as not to forget
the trucks roots. Armand and his wife, Dorothy, drove the truck from their home in Agawam, Massachusetts, to the Adirondack Nationals in New York
where they got 11th Place in the Favorite 50 category.
That snow sure looks cold!

Von Miller in More Legal Trouble With Traffic Stop
Suspended All-Pro linebacker Von Miller is in trouble with the law for the second time in a month.
Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson told Denver television station CBS4 on Tuesday night that the Denver Broncos' troubled star was cited last week for driving without a license and speeding near his home.
Robinson said Miller was with his father, who was then allowed to drive the vehicle.
The Broncos declined comment on Miller's latest legal troubles when contacted by The Associated Press.

IMPOSSIBLE TRIVIA: Only One in Five of Your Friends Would Do This for You?
Tuesday, June 25th is a Parrothead holiday in South Jersey, as Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer Band play the Susquehanna Bank Center on the Camden waterfront.
If you've never been to a Buffett show, then you may need a primer on Parrotheads and what to expect from the crowd at Jimmy's show.
Here is one Parrothead's explanation from a Parrothead blog site (there are lots of those)….
"To me being a Parrothead is a state of mind, similar to being in Margaritaville. Is it trying to be like Jimmy Buffett? In some ways yes, and others no.
Trying to be like Jimmy Buffett can be tough. Do you emulate the young, wild, devil-may-care party animal? (So honey, why don't we get drunk and….?) How about the hard working, dedicated musician with the soul of a poet? And then, of course, there's the older, wiser father-figure who beckons us to " follow in my wake" after he has "smoothed the troubled waters". How one sees Buffet and how you relate to him depends on where you are in your own life, and your own mind. I don't think age has much to do with it.
Through his music and writings Jimmy Buffett has allowed us to, vicariously, live a lifestyle that many of us aspire to. The partying, the money, the creativity, the adventure, the sunshine, the ocean are all part of it."
So there you have it, directly from a die-hard, what being a Parrothead is all about. But you won't really understand until you see Jimmy Buffett live in concert. That's where I can help out.
This week on Liter Rock Impossible Trivia, I'm giving away tickets to see Jimmy Buffett and the Coral Reefer band at the Susquehanna bank Center, June 25th. Try to answer the question weekday mornings at 7:20am to win your tickets on the Lite Rock Morning Show.
This morning's question:According to a survey, on average, only one in five of your friends would do this for you. What is it?
The answer? Bail you out of jail! Would you or have you bailed someone out of jail? Has someone bailed you out? Tell me about it in the comments section below.

Eye and Ear Ranked Among "Best Hospitals" by U.S. News & World Report July 19, 2011 Contact: Public Affairs 617-573-4170 Boston (July 19, 2011) — Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary ranks in the top five hospitals in the nation for both of its specialties in the 2011 U.S. News & World Report magazine's "America's Best Hospitals" survey. Mass. Eye and Ear ranked number four in Ophthalmology and number two in ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat). Both rankings have held steady for the past two years. U.S. News & World Report has ranked the hospital in the top five in one or both of its specialties since the magazine began publishing its annual survey of hospitals in 1990. This year's top hospitals were chosen from hospitals across the country. Mass. Eye and Ear is one of only 140 hospitals nationwide which ranked high enough to be considered for the magazine's top-ranked hospitals. The magazine ranks the 50 highest scoring hospitals. "Mass. Eye and Ear physicians, nurses and staff provide high quality, world-class specialty care every day. It's gratifying to be recognized by U.S. News and World Report for this care," said Mass. Eye and Ear President and CEO John Fernandez. U.S. News & World Report conducts the "America's Best Hospitals" survey in collaboration with RTI International in Research Triangle Park, N.C. Founded in 1824, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary is an independent specialty hospital providing patient care for disorders of the eye, ear, nose, throat, head and neck. Mass.
