Israel Idonije doesn't wear a helmet or absorb punishing blocks while performing his side job as a comic book creator. Yet the former Bears defensive lineman insists that developing his superhero title "The Protectors" has been more difficult than tackling an NFL quarterback.
"I've been sacking quarterbacks for 10 years, so I'm a veteran in that department," said Idonije, a free agent who has spent his entire career with the Bears. "In the comic book world, I'm a rookie right now, so I'm going through all of it for the first time. I'm in my training camp right now, which is the hardest part of the year."
This weekend's Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo at the McCormick Place represents the kickoff for "The Protectors." Athleta Comics will debut the first issue at C2E2, with Idonije scheduled to speak at a panel Friday afternoon and help man a booth on the convention floor where comic book fans can meet him.
At the booth, fans can pick up limited-edition posters depicting superhero versions of current Bears players Julius Peppers and Jay Cutler, and former Bear Brian Urlacher.
"I've been at C2E2 the last three years, but the real difference is that instead of just walking around and collecting stuff, I'll be behind the booth for all three days," Idonije said. "It's going to be great."
Set in Chicago, "The Protectors" follows a squad of athletes granted superpowers to defend Earth against an evil force called The Dissenters, which plans to enslave humanity. Each of the main characters--a diverse group that includes an African-American football player, a basketball star born on Chicago's South Side, a Latino baseball player, a French-Canadian hockey player and female soccer player--will get their own extraordinary abilities over the course of the story, which Idonije says will be a full origin story.
One Protector character in particular sounds like a proxy for 32-year-old Nigeria native Idonije. "Isaac" is a 6-foot-6-inch native of Africa who immigrated to America as a child and is now a defensive lineman in Chicago. "All of the characters are fictional," Idonije said, downplaying the similarities.
Professional sports and comics haven't necessarily mixed well in the past. Marvel Comics' 1990s flop, "NFL Superpro"—about a football star turned superhero—is a particularly egregious example, but Idonije believes "The Protectors" will be different.
"Typically, comics about sports give your favorite athletes powers and abilities and it's almost a gimmicky approach to the bringing the two worlds together," Idonije said. "You take Bo Jackson or Wayne Gretzky and give them special powers. That's great in the short term, but it doesn't really lend itself to stories that transcend time."
Idonije has enlisted the help of comic veterans Ron Marz and Bart Sears, whom he said "have been phenomenal in helping craft "The Protectors.' " Writer Marz is best known for his long runs on "Silver Surfer" and "Green Lantern," while Sears has illustrated "Justice League Europe" and "X-O Manowar."
Comics have been something of an obsession for Idonije the past couple of decades. As a child, his parents were strict about enforcing a one-hour-a-day TV-watching rule and made their children pick a hobby that involved more creativity. His sister read thick novels, but that wasn't for him.
"I read a lot of comics," he said, counting the Green Hornet, Spider-Man and Iron Man as his favorite heroes. "There's engagement on a different level—through illustrations and texts. And as a young boy, I really connected with it."
It wasn't until Bears training camp in 2007 that he decided to get into the comic-making business.
"I wanted to do something unique and wanted to create something," he said. "Something that has potential to have a positive impact on the world."

Allergies not only make you miserable during the day but they can hurt your chance of a good night's rest. Congestion, runny nose, difficultly breathing, sneezing, irritated eyes, and coughing can easily disrupt your sleep making you feel even more miserable. Allergy control often requires lifestyle changes to reduce allergen exposure. There are many products sold to reduce exposure to allergens but it is not clear how effective many of them are. Two proposed methods are using pillow encasements to protect against dust mite allergens and using air filters around the bed to keep allergens out of the air.
Researchers from Minnesota wanted to test the effectiveness of a combined approach with pillow encasement and local air filtration. The study, published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, found that the combined approach of air filtration and pillow encasement was effective at decreasing allergens and improving sleep.
About the Study
This randomized trial included 35 adults with allergic rhinoconjunctivitis (allergic reaction affecting eyes and nose). Participants were sensitive to dog, cat, or dust mite allergens. The treatment device used was a special pillow cover that not only encased the pillow, but also delivered filtered air to the sleeping participant. Half of the participants were assigned to the intervention that included localized air filtration and pillow encasement and the other half had a placebo treatment for two weeks.After one week washout period with no treatment, the participants switched their assigned groups. The intervention was associated with significant:
- Reduction in eye and nasal symptoms
- Reduction of sleep problems
- Improvement in quality of life
How Does This Affect You?
A randomized trial is the ideal study design because it reduces the chance of errors and increases the reliability of outcomes. Unfortunately, this study also had very few participants which can decrease the reliability of results. Also, this new device may not be available to purchase for quite some time. However, using a dust mite cover for your pillow and air filtration in the bedroom might prove useful.
If your allergies are keeping you up, try taking steps to reduce your exposure to allergens. If you have allergies to dust mite allergens, use dust mite covers on your bedding, keep moisture low in the house, vacuum regularly with a vacuum that has a HEPA filter, and use pesticides against mites as needed. This study suggests that using a pillow encasement and nearby air filtration may also help decrease allergens. If your nighttime allergy symptoms continue to disrupt sleep or include difficulty breathing, talk to your doctor about other ways to improve your allergy symptoms

Since the age of seven, Southington resident Alessandro Gaudio has always had a needle and thread in his hand. By the age of 14, Alessandro, who goes by the nickname "Alex," knew how to make pants from scratch. When he turned 18 years old, Alex opened his own tailor shop in his hometown Amorosi, Italy, where he started to make suits from scratch.
"I love everything about tailoring," Alex said.
Alex's love for sewing began at age seven when his uncle, Rudolph Gaudio, introduced him to the tailoring business. Rudolph Gaudio taught his nephew the ins and outs of sewing in his own tailor shop before immigrating to America in 1952. As time passed by, Alex decided to take his passion to New Haven, in 1965 where he made suits for Arthur M. Rosenberg Co. In 1980 he worked at Riccio's Clothing Store in downtown Southington, until the business closed nine years later.
Although he came to America with only a suitcase filled with clothes, Alex was determined to become a successful tailor. Since 1989, Alex has served countless clients in his own tailor shop called, "Gaudio's Custom Tailoring," located in his house on Oak Street.
"After so many years, everyone likes me, everyone knows me," Alex said.
Wearing black dress pants and a button down shirt paired with a black and white striped bow tie, Alex works from his own basement every day while Italian soccer games can be heard in the background from his TV.
There is no need for clients to make an appointment with Alex via phone call, he welcomes everyone to just stop by any time they need something altered or fitted. Between formal dresses, dress pants and suits, Alex can alter and reconstruct clothes for nearly every occasion including weddings, funerals and graduations. Bankers, teachers, doctors, TV personalities and families have turned to the 75-year-old tailor for service. Every time Michael Gaudio, Alex's son, makes an errand in town, local residents recognize his last name immediately.
"Wherever I go, everyone knows [my father]," Michael said.
The son of both a tailor and a seamstress, Michael used to attend school wearing homemade, custom pants. Michael recalls how embarrassed he felt as a kid while his peers wore jeans to class and other clothes that were in style at the time. By the time he reached high school, Michael wore what he wanted, but his father teased him for not wearing custom, dress pants. Looking back, Michael now understands why his father cared so much about dressing well.
"I think society is changing. It doesn't matter how you're dressed," Michael said. "There's a huge need for [tailoring]. I actually wish I got into it when I was younger."
Today Alex still does not own a pair of jeans or sneakers, which he refuses to wear. He feels more comfortable wearing a shirt and bow tie, even when he mows the lawn. One year Alex's family bought him a pair of jeans for his birthday, but he chucked them in less than 20 minutes.
"I wore them for ten minutes and threw them away," Alex said with a chuckle.
Michael said he is proud of what his father was able to accomplish at such a young age. He sees the joy that clients bring to his father's face every day.
"[My father] does [tailoring] because he likes people," Michael said. "It makes him happy."
Alex's work also brings a smile to his clients' faces. Michael Blanco, a Cheshire resident who has been a loyal client for at least five years, said Alex's business is "terrific." He recently picked up two pairs of pants that Alex altered, and dropped off four more pairs of pants because of the tailor's quality of work.
"Alex really cares about you," Blanco said. "He cares about the way you look to make sure it's right."
The end of summer is a quiet time for Alex Gaudio's sewing machine even though about seven to ten clients walk through his doors every day. He usually gets busy in April, May and October. Although Alex has been sewing for more than 65 years, he said he is not ready to retire any time soon.
"I want to do this job for 30 more years if I'm okay."

Phonological variation across the UK
- Article written by: Jonnie Robinson
- Themes: Your Voices: contemporary accents of the UK, Regional voices: English across the UK
- Published: 24 Apr 2019
If you overheard the following statement, the pronunciation of the word mask might help you to guess where the speaker comes from:
happen she were wearing a mask
The pronunciation of the word mask here could be very revealing. A well-known difference in British accents is the distinction between speakers in the north and south. Those in the north generally pronounce words such as bath, grass and dance with a short vowel – rather like the vowel in the word cat. Those in the south use a long vowel, rather like the sound you make when the doctor examines your throat. So you can immediately deduce something about a person who pronounces baths to rhyme with maths or pass to rhyme with mass.
The BATH variation map
Click on a location on the map below to hear how speakers in different parts of England pronounce words such as bath, laugh and grass in the 21st century.
Phonological variation – differences between accents – comes in a variety of forms. Some speakers might be difficult to place geographically, while others who speak with a broader accent might use a number of localised pronunciation features. This might include the articulation of certain consonant or vowel sounds. It might be apparent in so-called connected speech processes – the way certain sounds are pronounced in particular combinations of words or phrases. Or it might be revealed in characteristic intonation patterns.
Terms like 'Yorkshire accent' are often surprising to people who live in Yorkshire, as locals will insist quite rightly that there are several different types of Yorkshire accent. A Sheffield accent is different from a Hull accent, which is in turn different from a Leeds accent, but there are numerous features that unite speakers from all three cities. In most cases, an accent enables others to place you in a large geographic area, so the terms 'northern accent' or 'Welsh accent' are reasonably useful descriptors. In a small number of cases a speaker might have an accent that enables listeners to be even more specific, such as Liverpool accent (aka Scouse) or Rhondda Valley's accent.
Listen to these extracts of speakers using regionally specific accent features.
we used to work with a real wide range of young people and we al, also used to go into pubs and nightclubs and, uhm
One of the most recognisable differences in England's accents is the distinction between speakers in the north and Midlands who generally pronounce the vowel in words such as cup, love and under with rounded lips and those in the south, who use a vowel with lips in a more neutral position. If a speaker pronounces the words bull, full and pull to rhyme with cull, gull, hull and skull then they are likely to be from the north or Midlands. For speakers in this part of England, pairs such as stood and stud or could and cud are indistinguishable, blood and flood rhyme with hood and wood and pairs such as book/buck, hook/huck, look/luck, rook/ruck, shook/shuck and took/tuck might well be homophones. In some parts of the north and Midlands, however, speakers with a very broad accent might have a distinctive pronunciation of words ending orthographically in <–ook>. For these speakers, luck is pronounced with the same vowel as duck, but look might well sound the same as Luke.
Listen to the following recordings featured on this site for examples of a northern vowel: Wearhead, Welwick, Read, Kniveton, Hilton, Warmington, Stannington, Byker, Leeds, Withernsea, Burnley, Birkenhead, Nottingham, Danesford and Banbury.
Definite article reduction
uhm, it crossed my mind for the police service, uh, pris, uh to go in the police force
Listen to the way this speaker pronounces the in his opening statement: it crossed my mind for the police service. Definite article reduction – an abbreviated form of the word 'the' – is a distinctive feature of speech throughout Yorkshire and some neighbouring counties. This is often inaccurately represented by mimics who imply people here say t'police or simply omit the definite article altogether. In fact, it's an extremely complex phonetic process, perhaps best understood as the combination of an unreleased and therefore inaudible <t> sound, produced simultaneously with a glottal stop (although even this is something of an over-simplification). It is important to recognise in some cases speakers produce a more fully articulated the: as in the second part of this extract to go in the police force. This illustrates perfectly how an individual speaker can fluctuate between markedly local features of speech and more mainstream norms.
Listen to the following recordings featured on this site for examples of definite article reduction: Wearhead, Read, Kniveton, Burnley and Leeds.
there, there were lots of other things, because you could take, there were some, a lot more sports, you could play sport and, eh, there were a lot of other folk that had different ideas other than farming
There are a number of aspects of this speaker's accent that immediately identify him as Scottish. Above all he is a rhotic speaker – that is he pronounces the <r> sound after a vowel, at one time a feature of speech throughout the UK. Listen carefully to the way he pronounces the words there, were, other, more, sport and farming: in each case we can clearly hear the presence of an <r> sound. In England this pronunciation is increasingly restricted to the West Country and the far South West and a small area of Lancashire to the north of Manchester, but it remains a feature of most Scottish and Irish accents, although the way in which the <r> sound is articulated varies from area to area. Speakers in some rhotic areas of the UK might make a three-way distinction between words such as paw, pour and poor, while non-rhotic speakers might pronounce all three the same.
Listen to the following recordings featured on this site for examples of rhoticity: Welwick, Read, Hilton, Portesham, Peter Tavy, East Harting, Gloucester, Melksham, Plymouth, Milland, Lerwick, Stonehaven, Morningside, Glasgow, Kilmarnock, New Cumnock, Dalmellington, Selkirk, Ballymoney, Belfast, Lissummon and Bleanish Island.
the next one up to me was eight years older than me and then there's ten, then there's sixteen year and all, so all the time as a, as a child I, I, effectively grew up as a single child
An instantly recognisable feature of London speech is L-vocalisation – a process whereby speakers pronounce the <l> at the end of a syllable using a sound more like a vowel or a <w> sound. Listen carefully to the way this speaker pronounces the words older, all, child and single. This feature only applies to a syllable final <l>, but it can be heard across the whole of southern England, extending into the East Midlands and East Anglia. It is also a feature of speech in a number of Scottish accents, notably around Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Listen to the following recordings featured on this site for examples of L-vocalisation: Hackney (traditional), East Harting, Nottingham, Hackney (contemporary), Canterbury and Milland.

Displaying fine detail (at approximately 1.04 million dots), the camera's Touch Screen Wide 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor II is perfect for composing and reviewing images. Thanks to a new, solid construction between the monitor's resin-coated cover and the liquid crystal display, reflections are minimized, and the display can be viewed, without glare, from any number of angles. The LCD's surface is treated with a smudge-resistant coating to minimize fingerprints and to maintain a bright, clear image display.
Optical Viewfinder with approx. 0.87x magnification
In addition to its amazing multi-touch screen, the EOS Rebel SL1 also sports an Optical Viewfinder, ideal for composing shots when shooting in bright conditions or capturing the moment as it unfolds. Shooting with the Optical Viewfinder also ensures steadier images. The viewfinder displays exposure, AF, flash, plus other relevant image information right along with the image. The 0.87x magnification factor ensures that subjects are easier to find and track.
9-point AF system (including a high-precision cross-type f/2.8 center point)
When shooting through the viewfinder, the EOS Rebel SL1 has exceptional autofocus with a sophisticated 9-point AF system, including a high-precision cross-type f/2.8 center point, for accurate focus whether the camera is oriented in portrait or landscape position. A proven AI Servo AF system achieves and maintains consistent focus with an exceptional degree of reliability.
Hybrid CMOS AF II
Canon's amazing Hybrid CMOS AF System is perfect for shooting photos and video in Live View. Combining two different kinds of AF – phase and contrast detection – and aided by pixels on the camera's CMOS sensor that assist in predicting subject location, continuous focus tracking becomes faster and more accurate than ever before in Live View. And with the EOS Rebel SL1 you'll get Hybrid CMOS AF II, which provides the same fantastic performance as the original but boasts an increased AF area that covers approximately 80% of the sensor for easier composition. This performance is enhanced further by Canon's line of STM lenses, which provide smooth and quiet operation.
Scene Intelligent Auto mode
The EOS Rebel SL1 features Scene Intelligent Auto mode, which incorporates a number of Canon technologies to deliver the best possible exposure. Joining Picture Style Auto, Automatic Lighting Optimizer, Automatic White Balance, Autofocus, and Automatic Exposure, Scene Intelligent Auto mode analyzes the image, accounting for faces, colors, brightness, moving objects, contrast, even whether the camera is handheld or on a tripod, and then chooses the exposure and enhancements that bring out the best in any scene or situation. Users without extensive photography knowledge or experience will not need to puzzle over settings; the Scene Intelligent Auto mode simplifies DSLR image capture so photographers can simply concentrate on composing images.
Advanced Creative Filters that can be displayed in real time during Live View shooting
Adding to the fun and creative possibilities available with the EOS Rebel SL1, the camera offers seven different creative filters for still images: Art Bold Effect, Water Painting Effect, Miniature Effect, Fisheye Effect, Grainy B/W, Soft Focus and Toy Camera Effect. Each effect can be applied in three different levels (low, standard and strong), and easily previewed on the LCD panel during Live View shooting. The EOS Rebel SL1 also features the new Miniature Effect for Movies. You will be amazed and delighted by the artistry that these creative filters will allow you to create.
Effect Shot mode and Background Simulation
Among the dynamic new features designed to make creative photography both intuitive and fun, the EOS Rebel SL1 has Background Simulation, which makes it easy for beginners to achieve dramatic blurred or sharpened backgrounds. The result is previewed on the LCD screen, so users can see in advance how their final image will look. Plus, a new Effect Shot feature automatically captures two shots simultaneously: one without effect, and one with a preselected Picture Style or Creative Filter effect. This makes it easy to see how each effect changes the photo without compromising the original image. Effect Shot mode is available in both Live View and viewfinder-based shooting, and can easily be viewed immediately in playback mode.
New Special Scene Modes: Kids, Food and Candlelight
The EOS Rebel SL1 has three new easily accessible scene modes to capture the perfect image the first time. Kids mode ensures high-speed shutter priority, focus tracking, healthy skin tones and flash when needed; Food mode delivers bright, vivid food images, limits flash by default and limits the red tint often associated with "restaurant plate" photography. With Candlelight mode, the camera will take care not to blow out the scene, maintaining the glow of the candle, leaving the flash off and reducing exposure fluctuation.
Compatibility with SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards, including Ultra High Speed cards
The EOS Rebel SL1 uses popular SD, SDHC, SDXC, and is even compatible with Ultra High Speed (UHS-I), memory cards. Compact and available in large capacities, SD, SDHC and SDXC memory cards are a perfect complement to the camera's compact design.
Additionally, the EOS Rebel SL1 is compatible with Eye-Fi* SD cards, which are outfitted with a Wi-Fi® transmitter (IEEE 802.11b/g) and an internal antenna for wireless, high-speed transfer of images. With an Eye-Fi card installed, the EOS Rebel SL1 can display the Eye-Fi's connection status and error notes with ease, for fully functional wireless uploading of images directly from the camera.
* Canon cameras are not guaranteed to support Eye-Fi card functions, including wireless transfer. In case of an issue with the Eye-Fi card, please consult with the card manufacturer. The use of Eye-Fi cards may not be available outside the United States and Canada; please contact the card manufacturer for territory availability.
Compatible with EF and EF-S lenses
The EOS Rebel SL1 is compatible with all Canon lenses in the EF lineup, including compact and lightweight EF-S lenses, ranging from ultra-wide angle to super telephoto lenses and including the STM series, like the new EF-S 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6 IS STM, optimized for video shooting. Canon lenses employ advanced optical expertise and micron-precision engineering to deliver outstanding performance and deliver beautiful results. Special technologies like Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer help to minimize the effect of camera shake, effectively adding up to four stops of light; STM lenses even feature a stepping motor for smooth and quiet continuous autofocus while capturing video. With an array of lenses perfect for travel, sports, still life and everything in between, photographers can truly maximize the quality and performance of their EOS Rebel SL1.
Lens Aberration Correction
The EOS Rebel SL1 features lens correction tools that compensate for lens characteristics that can affect overall image quality. The EOS Rebel SL1's Peripheral Illumination Correction feature corrects light falloff in the corner of the image according to the characteristics of the lens being used. It even has correction data for a number of popular lenses stored in its memory. With the EOS Rebel SL1's chromatic aberration correction tool, distracting color fringing can be corrected at the time of shooting.
Feature Guide
To help explain the specific function of features found on the EOS Rebel SL1, the Feature Guide displays a simple description helpful in determining the applicability for the situation at hand. It is displayed in each shooting mode, during mode dial operations, and for Quick Control screen functions. It appears automatically when a function is selected – a lifesaver when trying to determine the best mode or function for the next picture. The feature guide works automatically by default, and can be disabled easily through the camera's menu.
GPS Compatible
With the optional GPS Receiver GP-E2 attached to the hot shoe or the digital terminal, the EOS Rebel SL1 can record location, including latitude, longitude and altitude, and has the ability to track the trajectory of movement with its logging function. An electric compass records the camera's orientation during each shot, and world time information is recorded through GPS syncing.
JPEG Resizing
To create images suitable for sharing by email or online, the EOS Rebel SL1 can resize JPEG files, in-camera, of varying pixels (aspect ratio cannot be changed, only the image size can be decreased) while leaving the original image untouched.
Photobook Set-up
Photographers can share their images in book form with the EOS Rebel SL1's convenient Photobook Set-up feature. Users can easily choose specific images, images in a folder and even all images, then specify their sequence and layout. The results can be printed in book form with ease.
Image Rating
To help organize images recorded to the camera's storage, the EOS Rebel SL1 makes it simple to rate individual images from one star to five. Therefore, image browsing, printing and slide shows can be based upon those ratings.
Eliminating the need to post-process in the computer, photographers can easily crop their photos right in the EOS Rebel SL1. Perfect for direct connection to a printer, or in situations when it wasn't possible to zoom in enough with a zoom lens, cropping is a viable solution thanks to the camera's excellent 18.0-megapixel resolution. Users can choose vertical or horizontal images, and 3:2, 4:3, 16:9, even 1:1 aspect ratios.

Pitcher Derek Lowe and the Texas Rangers have reached agreement on a minor league deal.
The Rangers announced the deal Wednesday. The 39-year-old righty is expected to report to spring training on Friday.
Lowe went a combined 9-11 with one save and a 5.11 ERA for Cleveland and the New York Yankees last year. He is 175-157 with 86 saves and a 4.00 ERA in a 16-season career with Seattle, Boston, the Dodgers, Atlanta, Cleveland and the Yankees.
Lowe led the AL with 42 saves for Boston in 2000, then was a 21-game winner for the Red Sox two years later.

Brighton's Ital Tek peddles a similar line in hyperchromatic dubstep variations as his sorta-contemporaries in Bristol, Joker, Gemmy and Guido. Only 'sorta' because although there are undoubtedly similarities in end product – all possessed of a convincingly colourful sheen that gradually seems to soak into the music's very fabric – Ital Tek's vision feels more deeply considered. His nocturnal moodiness and tendency towards subtle exploration betray a greater debt to early Warp albums by the likes of Autechre and The Black Dog than to US hip-hop and R'n'B. So while the 'purple' contingent's music sounds deliberately naïve and unconscious of much beyond its own boundaries, Ital Tek's second album Midnight Colour is knowingly steeped in the history of British electronic music.
It's perhaps surprising then that despite their entirely separate locations, his music shares more with his labelmate FaltyDL than with many of his British contemporaries. In a neat twist, it's less a similarity of end product and more one of process and aesthetic. NYC-based FaltyDL makes gorgeous, moody garage, while Ital Tek's beat structure remains rooted in dubstep's stereotypical halfstep mode, but both share an audible love of their own label's earlier music by the likes of Luke Vibert and Mu-ziq. On Midnight Colour that love is made manifest in delicate wisps of melody that drift almost aimlessly between muscular percussion. Opener 'Neon Arc' sets an appropriate precedent, driven by almost impossibly thick synths that again recall Joker, but sapped of his crunked-out feel possess a more natural rhythm. 'Moon Bow' is lovely, all descending lines that seem to plunge below its shimmering surface, and brings to mind the shifting sky curtains of the Northern Lights.
Midnight Colour is generally slower than its predecessor Cyclical, and as a result feels less a creation of and for the dancefloor than a headphone record. There's a (whisper it) maturity to these tracks that proves to be an asset; Ital Tek's level of restraint on something like 'Moon Bow', or the stargazing 'Tails' offers a full-length that is more than simply a collection of dance bombs. One of the standard complaints leveled against pure 'dance' full-lengths is that they often lack the variety across an entire hour to hold a listener's interest without diminishing the furious energy of a great 12-inch single. The naturally stripped-back spaces of dubstep have, over the last couple of years, proven it to be a form that lends itself well to the album format.
Midnight Colour offers yet more evidence to support that claim; having drifted through its entire length the reward is quite possibly Ital Tek's finest moment yet, the Anneka-featuring spacefuck of 'Restless Tundra'. It's a frosty love song, shot through with the vapour trails her almost wordless vocals leave in their wake. Similarly, when the ceaseless shuffle of 'Strangelove VIP' heads off in a more club-focused direction, it functions as a natural upsurge in the album's energy rather than simply one in a sea of copies. That's undoubtedly to Ital Tek's credit; Midnight Colour offers a frequently lovely head-trip.

Former Labour MSP Galbraith dies
Former Scottish education minister Sam Galbraith has died.
Mr Galbraith, 68, who is believed to have been the world's longest-surviving lung transplant recipient, died in hospital in Glasgow from an infection.
The former neurosurgeon, who went on to become a Labour MP and MSP for Strathkelvin and Bearsden, received the transplant in 1990 at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle.
Sam Galbraith has died at the age of 68
The father of three was education minister at the time of the exams crisis in 2000 when thousands of students received incomplete or inaccurate results certificates from the Scottish Qualifications Authority.
Later that year he was moved in a cabinet reshuffle, becoming environment minister.
Mr Galbraith resigned from politics in 2001 for health reasons.
Former chancellor Alistair Darling said he had been asked to put out a statement on behalf of Mr Galbraith's family, which said: "S am Galbraith died this morning in Glasgow's Western Infirmary after contracting an infection which proved impossible for him to overcome.
"Sam was a brilliant neurosurgeon, a dedicated politician and a very dear friend. But above all, he was devoted to his family, to Nicola and their three daughters - Mhairi, Heather and Fiona - who are foremost in our thoughts.
"They have asked for their privacy to be respected at this time."
It continued: " Sam was believed to be the world's longest-surviving lung transplant patient.
"It was extraordinary how he continued to contribute and achieve so much throughout the 25 years that he lived with his condition.
"Sam's professional life and immense talents were devoted to the care and betterment of others, through the National Health Service and in his deep political commitment. He was a great humanitarian. His work and his life touched countless lives.
"Sam's family wish to thank all the staff in the medical assessment unit and intensive therapy unit of Glasgow Western Infirmary for their care and attention in his last illness, and also his GP and all the staff in the transplant unit at Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, for their magnificent care over many years."
Scottish Labour leader Johann Lamont also paid tribute to him and said: " Sam was a wonderful man. A great doctor, an inspiring colleague and dedicated family man.
"Sam was a great champion of the NHS, and he himself was a great example of how it can transform lives.
"We will all miss his vigour, his support and his candour. Our thoughts are with his wife and family."
First Minister Alex Salmond said: " Sam Galbraith was a devoted and gifted politician whose commitment to improving the lives of others never wavered, even though he faced living with his own serious health condition for the best part of 25 years.
"My thoughts go to his family and friends at this sad and difficult time."
Holyrood Presiding Officer Tricia Marwick said: " Sam was no career politician, a distinguished neurosurgeon with a hinterland beyond politics. He was one of the original 1999 intake of MSPs, but there was always a sense that Parliament was robbed of his talents when he stood down in 2001 because of ill health.
"On behalf of the Parliament, I would like to express our sincere condolences to his family."
Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson also paid tribute, stating: "Sam Galbraith was a good public servant and an honest, decent man. Scotland is very much the poorer for his passing."
Former prime minister Gordon Brown said: "Sam Galbraith was great in every respect - a great surgeon, a great statesman and a great family man who will be sorely missed.
"For Sam, politics was about one thing only - service to the people. Our thoughts are with his wife Nicola and three daughters - Mhairi, Heather and Fiona."
Liberal Democrat Lord Jim Wallace, who was deputy first minister in the coalition Scottish Executive that included Mr Galbraith, said he was " very saddened" by his death.
He added: " As a colleague in Scotland's first government after devolution, I got to know Sam as a man whose robust opinions commanded respect and whose judgment I could readily trust. His resilience in tackling his health challenges matched the commitment he showed to public service throughout his life.
"It was a privilege to work alongside him in coalition and I very much wish to recognise the significant contribution he made in helping our fledgling Parliament to mature and work well for Scotland.
"My thoughts and condolences are very much with his family as they mourn his loss."

Katie Davis, 24, lost her ovaries to cancer when she was 12. Doctors told her that if she wanted to have a baby one day, she would have to use donor eggs and undergo in vitro fertilization. She has been trying to have a baby since September 2010, but so far no luck.
Davis said infertile women sometimes feel like members of a "silent sorority."
"Women are quiet about infertility because they're so ashamed," said Davis, of Bolingbrook. "If you want to have children and you can't do that, you may feel your womanhood has been taken away."
On Saturday, Davis and her husband will share their story at a free conference on infertility and adoption, called A Family of My Own, in Glenview.
Conference organizers say the event will be an opportunity for people to learn from a variety of experts who run in vitro fertilization centers, surrogacy programs and adoption agencies; who teach couples how to raise money for the costly procedures; and who explain how scientific advances are enhancing a couple's ability to conceive.
For more information on the conference and to register, go to afamilyofmyown.com.
Dr. Angeline Beltsos, a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist, is medical director of the Chicago-based Fertility Centers of Illinois. She said that couples navigating infertility need a strong support network because the process is often taxing physically and emotionally.
"When they're going through treatment, they have to come in for ultrasounds, blood tests and even surgery," said Beltsos, who will be speaking at the conference. "They have busy lives. But what tries them the most is the anguish when all their work doesn't produce a baby.
"When they find a safe place to share their stories, it gives people hope that (they can have a baby) one way or another. We can help them."
But help is often quite expensive. Beltsos said a round of in vitro fertilization, or IVF, costs about $15,000 to $17,000 without use of donor eggs; surrogacy can range from $50,000 to $100,000; and, adoption starts near $40,000.
In Illinois, companies that have at least 25 employees and provide insurance that covers pregnancy-related benefits must also cover all or some fertility treatments. Although there are exemptions, the state is one of the few in the country to require companies to do so.
But costs related to surrogacy remain a large hurdle for some parents-to-be.
Katie O'Brien, 32, of Wadsworth, learned she had uterine fibroids in August 2005. Doctors told her that conceiving a child would be difficult, despite five surgeries to help correct the problem. She and her husband tried to conceive via IVF for two years before deciding to use a surrogate.
"When we found out how expensive surrogacy was, I cried the whole way home," said O'Brien, a patient at Fertility Centers of Illinois. "If you don't have insurance, you can find grants to help you pay for fertility treatment or adoption. But we couldn't find anything for surrogacy. A lot of costs related to surrogacy are similar to adoption."
She said she came across the Facebook page of the nonprofit Birdies for Babies, an annual golf outing that allows couples to raise money to pay for infertility treatments. With the help of family and friends, O'Brien, an elementary school teacher, and her husband, an accountant, raised $30,000 toward their costs of roughly $60,000.
"We found a surrogate whose insurance should cover the pregnancy," said O'Brien, whose blog is at prayingforbabyobrien.blogspot.com. "That's keeping us on the low end of the price range. We'll pay for the rest with savings and help from family and begin trying in September."
One of the conference sponsors is the Broken Brown Egg (thebrokenbrownegg.org), a nonprofit started by Regina Townsend, 29, an Oak Park resident, who aims to destigmatize infertility in the black community.
Townsend, who is black, said that when she and her husband were having difficulty getting pregnant, she found very few resources directed toward women of color.
"When we talk about reproductive health and black women, it's always about contraception and prevention, abortion and (sexually transmitted diseases)," said Townsend. "It's always everything before fertility."
She said there's a misconception that blacks don't have problems conceiving, don't adopt and can't afford the treatments.
"Until I started talking about infertility, I couldn't find one member of even my own family who would admit this was something our family has dealt with before," Townsend said. "You want to feel you're not alone, but you want information. You want to be proactive."
Beltsos said conferences such as A Family of My Own help make couples aware of what's available to them. That includes the breakthroughs in the science of fertility treatments.
For example, the advances in the technology for freezing eggs have taken off dramatically over the last decade thanks in part to work done in Italy, Japan and Korea. She said such advancements have had a profound effect on women diagnosed with cancer.
"We will pull eggs out and have them preserved for when the woman's done with chemo," Beltsos said. "Women can come back once they're cured from cancer and use their own biological eggs. No one would question that the most important thing is saving her life, but afterward it shifts the focus from surviving cancer to living one's life."
Davis said that when she was diagnosed with cancer at 12, her cancer was too aggressive to consider taking time to save her eggs.
"From the beginning, I knew I would have to go the IVF route," said Davis. "There's no guarantee it's going to work. We ran out of eggs the first time and now we're starting back at square one."
Davis, who also had a fundraiser through Birdies for Babies, said she believes it's important to share her story. She said a woman her husband knew in high school read about their ordeal on her blog (at katieandpatsivfjourney.blogspot.com) and offered to donate her eggs.
"It's amazing that things like this happen," said Davis. "At first, we were both not sure whether we should talk about (the infertility). But just by being so open with our story and speaking at events, we believe we're also helping others.
"I've been in remission for 11 years. I'm cancer-free. The last thing is this, and once I have a baby, I'll know cancer didn't take anything away from me."
Katie Davis, 24, lost her ovaries to cancer when she was 12. Doctors told her that if she wanted to have a baby one day, she would have to use donor eggs and undergo in vitro fertilization. She has been trying to have a baby since September 2010, but so far no luck.
