Since I just started reviewing books recently, I generally read reviews by readers on Goodreads or google up reviews from the media. I do this in order to gauge my understanding of the book, and to reread portions in the book that may have eluded my understanding. Damon Galgut's book, The Impostor put me in a fix. Everyone else was raving about this book. Also, his previous book, The Good Doctor, had been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2003. This was my first book by the author, and also my first book set in South Africa. Expectations were obviously high. What bothered me most was the absence of a plot, and I felt that I was merely ambling along an uneventful account of someone's life. I was forced to change my mind as I started jotting down this review.
The book begins when the protagonist, Adam Napier, who has recently lost his job and his house and is about to move into his brother's abandoned house in an unforgiving and harsh countryside. Previously, having published a poetry book, Adam thinks of himself as a poet, and has a vague idea of writing poems again. He feels the need to move into the countryside with the hope that the lush surroundings will spring out the poems laying dormant inside of him.
The landscape is completely different than the one he imagined. It is dry, lifeless, and "sun blasted". He is alone in a huge house that is nearly taken up by weeds. His attempts to clean up the weeds and the yard start off with enthusiasm, but are always incomplete. This is also reflected in his feeble attempts to write poetry that always end in the page 'outstaring him'.The poems always remain invisibly out of his reach. The failure to clean up the yard and write poetry also point to the kind of character that Adam is – someone who is defeated and who does not have a reason for living. The poetry, we later learn, is just an excuse, an aberration from the will of living the routine of everyday life.
Adam keeps a fearful distance from his neighbor (Blom, or the blue man), and then takes up a friendship with the Cannings every weekend. Kenneth Canning, his school friend, invites Adam joyfully into his life. He hero-worships Adam and claims that Adam changed his life in school, but Adam does not seem to remember him. Adam is instead intrigued by Baby, Kenneth's enigmatic wife.
Adam comes across as a restrained and passionless character. Although the book is about him, he is not elevated to a position of a hero possessing ideal qualities. He is left wanting and is clearly struggling with his inabilities and insecurities. Baby's enigma is well written. She is literally as well as metaphorically an enigma as she pirouettes in and out of the prose, hiding behind doors as well as lurking between the lines. Canning is clearly in love with Baby, but she does not return his love, instead using him as a pawn to get ahead in life. Baby's past is never explained, but just hinted at in a couple of paragraphs that she had to fight a great deal to secure her position.
Canning is a business man, who has left his wife and daughter for Baby, and is now in the middle of cracking a deal to make a gold course out of the land that he owns in the countryside. Canning is always happy to have Adam over; he also chooses to glaze over the affair of Adam and Baby, and only reveals to Adam in the end that he knew. I did not understand why he chose to not do anything about it. He is reluctant to involve Adam in his shady dealings, but yet utilizes Adam to deliver a packet, which is supposedly a bribe to the Mayor.
Racial underpinnings and class fractures are the backdrop of this book, and Adam is poorly equipped to navigate the experiences and provides us with only observations. This is a South Africa I learned, where money is to be made in building a country, where corruption goes hand-in-hand with expansion. Adam's brother, Gavin, is also like them; he is already a part of the corrupt underbelly of South Africa, where everyone, right from the blacks and the whites are opportunists, colluding to pass money and make deals.
The blue man and Charmaine and Gavin's wife were other characters that evaded my grasp of what the author wanted to convey through them. Perhaps, this is like real life where not every body you meet is supposed to occupy important and explicable positions in your life. Some people will no doubt always occupy shadowy corners, and remain as unwelcome guests.
The lack of a story was slightly explained towards the end, when it is dawns upon Adam that he had been suffering from depression during the year he spent in the countryside. It still does not completely tie up the loose ends, and interpreting the ending seems like a futile exercise. But, isn't depression also something like that? It may creep up without a cause, linger without you even knowing it, and even after eons it may make little sense.
As I end this review, I am now able to appreciate the title of the book, The Impostor. Adam, living a depressed life as a passionless observer, conducting an affair with Baby is an impostor. Canning and Gavin with their shady dealings are impostors. Baby with her mystery and enigma is an impostor. Other characters are impostors because they are never fully revealed to us. The more I think about this book, the more I am sucked into a riddle into deciphering the layers and the meanings of all the characters. I will stop now.
I would recommend this book because the prose is well crafted, and just so that I can understand the many different interpretations that readers are left with after reading this book.

Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Suit Against LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd.
Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP Files Class Action Suit Against LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd.
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP ("Robbins Geller") (http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/lightinthebox/) today announced that a class action has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of LightInTheBox Holding Co., Ltd. ("LightInTheBox") (NYS: LITB) American Depository Shares ("ADSs") during the period between its June 6, 2013 initial public stock offering ("IPO") and August 19, 2013, inclusive (the "Class Period").
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than 60 days from today. If you wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please contact plaintiff's counsel, Samuel H. Rudman or David A. Rosenfeld of Robbins Geller at 800/449-4900 or 619/231-1058, or via e-mail at email@example.com. If you are a member of this class, you can view a copy of the complaint as filed or join this class action online at http://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases/lightinthebox/. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
The complaint charges LightInTheBox and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. LightInTheBox, organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands and headquartered in Beijing, China, is a global online retail company that sells directly to consumers via the Internet. The Company offers products in three core categories: apparel (including wedding dresses), small accessories and gadgets, and home and garden.
The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, defendants issued materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's financial performance and future prospects. In particular, defendants misrepresented or failed to disclose the following adverse facts, which were known to defendants or recklessly disregarded by them: (a) LightInTheBox's sales growth had dramatically decreased during the second quarter of 2013, the period ended June 30, 2013; (b) LightInTheBox's costs had grown more than its sales during the second quarter of 2013; and (c) as a result of the foregoing, the Company was not on track to achieve the financial results defendants had led the market to expect during the Class Period.
On August 19, 2013, after the close of trading, the Company issued a press release announcing its actual second quarter 2013 financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, less than one month after the IPO. Rather than the earnings of $.06 per share on revenues of $75.8 million the investment community had been led to expect, LightInTheBox reported revenues of just $72.2 million and profits (excluding items) of $.05 per share. In addition, revenues rose only 52.6% while operating costs rose 57%. The Company also forecast revenues of just $68-$70 million for the third quarter of 2013 (ending just a little more than a month away, on September 30, 2013), whereas analysts had been led to expect $75.8 million. On this news, the price of LightInTheBox ADSs, which had traded as high as $23.38 per share in intraday trading during the Class Period (on August 14, 2013), plummeted approximately 40% from their close on August 19, 2013, to close below $12 per share on August 20, 2013.
Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of all purchasers of LightInTheBox ADSs during the Class Period (the "Class"). The plaintiff is represented by Robbins Geller, which has expertise in prosecuting investor class actions and extensive experience in actions involving financial fraud.
Robbins Geller represents U.S. and international institutional investors in contingency-based securities and corporate litigation. With nearly 200 lawyers in nine offices, the firm represents hundreds of public and multi-employer pension funds with combined assets under management in excess of $2 trillion. The firm has obtained many of the largest recoveries and has been ranked number one in the number of shareholder class action recoveries in MSCI's Top SCAS 50 every year since 2003.

David Stockman's Contra Corner isn't your typical financial tipsheet. Instead it's an ongoing dialogue about what's really happening in the markets… the economy… and governments… so you can understand the world around you and make better decisions for yourself.
David believes the world -- certainly the United States -- is at a great inflection point in human history. The massive credit inflation of the last three decades has reached its apogee and is now going to splatter spectacularly.
This will have lasting ramifications on how governments tax and regulate you… the type of work you and your family members will have available and what you get paid… the value of your nest egg… and all other areas comprising your quality of life.

I once heard a story about a young, aspiring actor in Hollywood who was invited to go to one of the local parties. It was in effect a Hollywood networking function where famous actors and actresses attended. One of the movie actors there was Walter Matthau. Walter Matthau during his lifetime appeared in more than 60 movies, and won an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and two Tony Awards. Reportedly, Matthau asked the young actor how it was going. The aspiring actor replied, "I'm just looking for that one big break!" Matthau laughed, and said, "Kid, it's not the one big break. It's the fifty big breaks."
Just like the aspiring actor, you won't achieve overnight success. One big break will not help you. Unless it is supported by other breaks, that one big break will fade. You will attain success through incremental progress—by gaining one big break after another.
You can achieve the success you want if you will focus on these practices.
1. Show up. Consistently.
Half of success is just showing up. The key is to do it consistently.
I once heard a great quote about the difference of amateurs and professionals: "Professionals show up to work. Amateurs wait to be inspired."
I consistently force myself to write. And I have found that the inspiration comes when I show up consistently. Because God shows up when I do.
2. Slog on. Diligently.
Work is still work. There is no short cut.
One great quote about work comes from Thomas Edison: "Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration."
Inspiration is about as necessary for success as a spark is to a roaring fire in a wood stove. The spark is necessary to get it started, but without ample fuel and consistent tending, the fire will go out—and so will your inspiration.
3. Press on. Persistently.
You can get to where you want to go if you will persevere. Even in writing this article, I have had to persevere through my head feeling cloudy.
Nietzsche surprisingly said that the essential thing to produce good results is "a long obedience in the same direction." Only by persevering can you hope to obtain what it is you want to achieve.
So show up, slog on, and press on. Over time you can produce the results you want to see if you are willing to focus on incremental progress—and not wait for that one big break.

The JP Morgan Chase bank branch for the Sunbury Mills Plaza got the final approval at the Village Council meeting on Feb. 21.
The new branch would be at the northeast corner outlot in the shopping center, and it would replace the branch that is currently across from the village square.
Vaughn Benson of Feinknopf, Macicoe, Schappa Architects told council the construction on the bank branch would begin towards the end of March or the beginning of April. He joked that it would take longer to build than the Taco Bell that would be next to Chase. Taco Bell representatives said it would take a mere 70 days to construct the fast food restaurant.
Also heard at the meeting was a plea for a tethering law for the village. Cindy Reynolds was the lone member of the public to speak to council, and she brought with her a Doberman puppy named Bella. She said the dog had been dumped along a road, someone saw her and she is now rescued.
However, Reynolds was at council to speak about what she considered to be another form of animal abuse — prolonged dog-tethering.
"I'd like Sunbury to be the 43rd community in Ohio with an anti-tethering ordinance," Reynolds said.
The City of Delaware enacted a tethering ordinance in 2017. In a letter to the Village Council, Delaware City Councilman Chris Jones wrote, "Not only is a tethering ordinance important from an animal cruelty perspective, it is also beneficial from a noise nuisance perspective as well. We expect a reduction in noise complaints from residents calling regarding barking dogs that are left unattended all day. I believe that adopting this ordinance will improve the quality of life and compassion for animals in Sunbury."
Reynolds said she would like to return "with friends" to talk more about the matter. She was told she could attend a council meeting in March.
Also at the meeting, it was said that councilmen Timothy Gose and Joe St. John will replace David Martin as liaisons to Big Walnut schools. Martin said the Board of Education's Thursday evening meetings conflicted with his schedule.
In other business, Councilman Martin Fisher said the Berkshire Sunbury Trenton and Galena fire district has hired the Ohio Fire Chief's Association to help in the search for a new fire chief. Jeff Wilson has recently retired, and deputy chief Kevin Kline is serving as the interim chief. Fisher said BST&G hopes to have a new chief in place by June 25.

There are several trends that make the topic of this workshop especially relevant in today's world. The first is the tremendous advances made in automation and information technology that can potentially bring in an ever-increasing amount of information on to computer screens in the operating room of a plant. Avoiding problems of information overload and converting plant data to "on-line useful knowledge" is a key challenge. In some respects, one can draw parallels here to biological evolution where, over billions of years, human beings have evolved "mental models" to interpret the huge amount of information received through their senses. In the absence of the time advantage that evolution has had, we have to rely on methodologies such as those presented in this workshop to provide assistance to operators and engineers in interpreting plant information.
A second trend that makes this field relevant in today's world is the increasing emphasis on environment and safety. Community activism and accidents such as those in Bhopal, India have caused media spotlights to be turned on the smallest of toxic releases or loss of life due to chemical accidents. The negative publicity generated by such events as well as the need to maintain the image of an environmentally conscious company make industry more sensitive to the issues of early detection of faults.
The third trend that makes this field very relevant is that of the globalization of the world economy. Increasing globalization of the chemical process industry puts pressure on economic competitiveness and higher productivity. This implies reduced down-time due to faults, quick and flexible response of production to supply and demand changes, increasing reliance on automation and reduced personnel.

Christ School is located in Bundibugyo, Uganda. Our partnership with the school began in December 2018. There are a total of 320 students, with 160 girls in 2018. For years, geographic isolation and rebel warfare stood in the way of the peace, development, and well being of Bundibugyo district. Compared to the rest of Uganda, Bundibugyo consistently ranks in the bottom 10% of the country on various education measures. Historically, this has left the district at the mercy of leaders from the outside, or unqualified or unethical leaders from within.
Founded in 1999, Christ School, a secondary boarding school, today is seeing alumni go on to lead the community and nation. These young people have the strong educational and spiritual foundation received at Christ School. Average education levels in Bundibugyo are on the rise and the district is connecting to more developed areas of Uganda.
Please consider giving to this project so we can begin making a huge difference for these girls!

The First Independence Day
July 1, 2013 in Trivia
Early in American history, July 2, 1776 was the day associated with America's break away from kings and taxation without representation, not July 4. July 2 was the date the Continental Congress actually voted for the Declaration of Independence, according to the U.S. National Archives.
John Adams wrote in a letter to Abigail Adams on July 3, "The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more. You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not."
So why do American's celebrate Independence Day on July 4? It's because legalities matter. It was two days later on July 4 the Continental Congress actually approved and dated an edited version of the famous document.
The signing of the Declaration of Independence did not even begin until August that year. In fact the signing process actually went on for months, as members of the Congress arrived from their various states. As president of the Congress, John Hancock was the first signatory. Hancock is celebrated for having made his mark on the document with an overly large signature.
He famously declared, "I will write it so that King George can read it without his spectacles."
Hancock signed on August 2. Following that, the signing process continued on for months as members of the fledgling Congress returned from their distant states to commit their signatures to the document. Fifty-six delegates eventually signed the document.
A transcription of the original Declaration of Independence can be found on the National Archives' website.

The Bone Broth Myth
I'd like to give a big welcome for my first out-of-province guest blogger, Vincci Tsui! Vincci is based in Calgary and I was drawn to her after seeing several of her media appearances on Breakfast Television. I admire Vincci for her simplicity in breaking down the science and de-bunking many nutrition myths! Today she will be de-bunking the bone broth myth. I've learned that bone broth is slowly (but steadily) becoming a thing. Fuelled equal parts by the Paleo movement and Kobe Bryant, bone broth is becoming so popular that Brodo, a takeout window that doles out hot cups of broth, recently opened in New York!

b values
b value measures the degree of diffusion weighting applied, thereby indicating the amplitude (G), time of applied gradients (δ) and duration between the paired gradients (Δ) and is calculated as:
b = γ² G² δ² (Δ−δ/3)
Therefore, a larger b value is achieved by increasing the gradient amplitude and duration and by widening the interval between paired gradient pulses.
To sense slow moving water molecules and smaller diffusion distances, b values should be higher (e.g. b = 500 s/mm2).
Apparent diffusion coefficient is calculated using different b-values (e.g 0-1000 s/mm2).
A useful rule of thumb is to choose the b value such that (b X ADC) is nearly equal to 1.

Premium Toric Intraocular Lens
If you have astigmatism, and a clearer distance vision is important to you, you now have an option. You can decrease your astigmatism during cataract surgery. The unique design of the "Premium Toric Intraocular Lens" provides significantly improved distance vision and may reduce the need for corrective lenses. Imagine being able to enjoy quality distance vision without eyeglasses.
Astigmatism is a common corneal irregularity where the surface of the cornea has an uneven curvature that causes vision to be distorted. This condition commonly requires glasses for distance and for reading to correct the visual distortion.
During cataract surgery, the ophthalmologist surgically removes the cloudy lens of the eye and replaces it with an intraocular lens (implant) in order to restore your vision. Instead of replacing the lens with a conventional monofocal intraocular lens, a "Premium Toric Intraocular Lens" is used to correct any pre-existing astigmatism (distortion) within the eye.
Do not expect to be completely free of glasses. Recent studies have shown that 97% of patients who received this implant in both eyes were spectacle-free for distance vision. This implant does not correct for intermediate and near vision, and you will be expected to wear reading glasses.
The cost of a Premium Toric Intraocular Lens is partially covered. Medicare and all other insurance companies cover the costs of the cataract surgery and of a conventional lens. The use of a "premium intraocular lens" and the associated services are considered partially covered. In addition to your deductible and co-payment amount, you will be responsible for the additional charges of the "premium toric intraocular lens" and all associated services performed before, during and after the cataract surgery. The charges for a Premium Toric Intraocular Lens are $1,400.00 per eye, in addition to any deductible and co-payment amount.

Step 1
Investigate the bank options available to you. Determine whether the bank you choose has a trust department that is capable of handling the demands of your trust. Also, research the reputation of the bank's trust department.
Step 2
Negotiate with the bank regarding the fees it will charge to be trustee. The fee a bank charges to serve as trustee is normally a percentage of the value of the assets in the trust. A bank generally charges 0.75 percent to 3 percent of the total asset value. A bank that charges higher fees may provide additional services, such as tax preparation.
Step 3
Draft the Declaration of Trust. The declaration of trust document creates the operative trust and formalizes the relationship between the trustee and the trust. The declaration also defines when the trustee should distribute the trust's assets and to whom. The declaration should also set out the fee that the bank charges for acting as trustee.
Step 4
Transfer the trust property to the bank. The trustee holds the legal title of all the assets in the trust, for the trust's benefit. Property law and the process for transferring property between parties, varies by state. Check your state's laws for the proper process for transferring assets into the trust.

Only half of the previously foreclosed homes owned by Fannie Mae are either on the market or being prepared for sale. The remaining properties are currently locked away in some step of the foreclosure system.
The National Association of Realtors said in its existing home sales report Wednesday that its officials were pressuring government agencies to release more of their REO in markets short of inventory.
Many market participants long claimed the government – including Fannie, Freddie Mac and the Department of Housing and Urban Development – are deliberately holding these homes off the market in order to get more for them when home prices recover.
Fannie disclosed for the first time this year where these properties are in the lengthy and complicated REO process. In its second quarter financial filing, the government-sponsored enterprise said 23% of its more than 109,000 repossessed homes are currently available for sale.
That's down from 28% at the end of last year.
An offer has been accepted on another 19%, and 11% have an appraisal pending, Fannie said.
But 47% of its inventory is unable to be marketed.
Roughly 14% of Fannie's entire REO inventory is redemption status, meaning the time frame borrowers and second-lien holders can redeem the property under various state laws. The timelines vary and have come under much change across the country. In Michigan, for example, lawmakers passed a bill last year to extend the redemption period to as much as one year in some cases. The bill was referred back to a state committee in March.
Fannie said another 13% of its properties are still occupied by the borrower. The eviction process just hadn't been completed.
Interestingly, 8% of its inventory – slightly less than 9,000 homes – are being rented as part of its piloted Tenant in Place or Deed for Lease programs, where the home is rented back to the borrower.
Its other piloted program to sell roughly 2,500 homes to investors, who were approved in recent months to rent the properties out, will close at some point in the third quarter.
"The properties we own are either on the market or in the process of being brought to market. Fannie Mae's goal is to sell HomePath properties at market competitive rates as quickly as we can so that neighborhoods stabilize and recover," a Fannie spokesman said.
In its financial filing, Fannie showed it's taking fewer losses on its REO sales. The GSE recovered an average 65% of the unpaid principal balance from REO sales in the second quarter, up from a low of 59% at the beginning of last year.
But even this metric varies widely across the country. It was able to recover an average 78% of the unpaid principal through REO sales in Texas but only 50% of the original mortgage balance in Nevada sales.
Home prices began to steadily improve in 2012, pushing profits up for the GSE. It signaled to investors that the major hurdle holding back REO sales isn't its own management of the properties but of mortgage servicer difficulties, specifically at the five largest banks.
Fannie sold only 5,000 more REO than the 43,700 homes acquired in the second quarter.
"We continue to manage our REO inventory to minimize costs and maximize sales proceeds," Fannie said in its filing. "However, as we are unable to market and sell a higher portion of our inventory, the pace at which we can dispose of our properties slows, resulting in higher foreclosed property expenses related to costs associated with ensuring that the property is vacant and costs of maintaining the property."

LONDON, Jan. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The global peripheral I.V. catheter market accounted for $3,702.2 million revenue in 2015, and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% during 2016-2022. The short peripheral I.V. catheter segment accounted for larger share in the global market between the two types in 2015; whereas, among the various end users, the hospital segment accounted for the highest share in the global market during the same year. The global peripheral I.V. catheter market is witnessing high growth rate, due to growing geriatric population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and growing healthcare expenditure. Also, the growing technological advancements in peripheral I.V. catheters are further propelling the growth of the market.
The demand for peripheral I.V. catheters is increasing, due to increasing prevalence of chronic and lifestyle associated diseases. The prevalence of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, respiratory disease and diabetes, is increasing due to the alteration in lifestyle and lack of access to preventive care. According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), a specialized cancer agency of WHO that promotes cancer research, 12.7 million new patients suffered from cancer in 2008 globally, and the number is expected to reach 21.4 million by 2030.
The increasing aging population is propelling the growth of the global peripheral I.V. catheter market, as the geriatric population is more susceptible to diseases, sickness and syndromes, due to less regenerative abilities. This leads to the increased demand for drugs, thus leading to the growth in adoption of peripheral I.V. catheters for delivering drugs, supplying nutrients and for the treatment of various diseases. Moreover, the increase in healthcare expenditure leads to an increased affordability and accessibility of the treatment for various conditions.
The demand for injectable drugs in comparison to the oral medications is increasing worldwide, which is further driving the growth of the market. Also, biologics and biosimilars are becoming significant, due to their exceptional pharmaceutical potential. New biologic drugs are being developed and introduced in the market for the treatment of acute and chronic conditions. Most biologics, such as monoclonal antibodies, anticoagulants, and vaccines are large molecules which need to be administered parenterally to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. The demand for development of injectable biologic therapies is increasing, as many peptides are broken down too quickly in the stomach and then they no longer remain useful for treatment. Also, various biologic drugs and vaccines require to be injected directly into the bloodstream. The increase in demand of injectable drugs leads to the growth of peripheral I.V. catheter market globally
The restraints impacting the growth of the global market include the risks associated with peripheral I.V. catheters, such as infection, infiltration, extravasation, phlebitis and hypersensitivity. Furthermore, the availability of alternative treatment and high cost of peripheral I.V. catheter is hampering the growth of the market.
The key companies operating in the global peripheral I.V. catheter market include Becton, Dickinson and Company, Terumo Corporation, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Teleflex Incorporated, Smiths Medical Inc., C.R. Bard Inc., Tangent Medical Technologies Inc., VIGMED AB, Argon Medical Devices Inc., and Medical Components Inc.

HITS aren't new to the music business. They've been around and around and around – literally. After a 22 date European tour, they're full of drunken stories and a deep know how about the DIY music industry. They've also signed a European deal with BEAST RECORDS (France) to release an EP while on tour and played gigs, toured or opened shows with, The Scientists, The Drones, The New York Dolls (USA), The Hard-Ons, Violent Soho, The Go-Set, the Gin Club and many, many more!
They've proved their worth through blood, sweat and beers so buckle down and have a listen to their early morning chat with us!
You can find their answers in the following courses or by searching HITS:
- Booking Gigs
- Touring Nationally & Internationally
- Artist Management
- Networking Tips
- General Advice for Emerging Artists
Read on for more info about the band:
Every now and then a band comes along that kicks you on your arse and reminds you what rock music is truly meant to be about. And right now that band is HITS. Sure, they have been creating a completely glorious racket for years, but with the release of their second full-length record HIKIKOMORI everything has just become a whole world more intense.
HITS are simply a band that does not fuck around. As Steve Bell writing for The Music put it, HITS play "Dirty rock'n'roll at its delectably depraved best." Produced by walking legend Rob Younger (Radio Birdman/New Christs) and mastered by Don Bartley, HIKIKOMORI comes as close as anything they have done to capturing the sweat soaked assault that is a HITS show. Out now through respected labels Conquest of Noise in Australia and Beast Records in Europe, HIKIKOMORI follows up the band's much loved album 'Living With You Is Killing Me', debut EP 'Take Your Pills' and their split 7" releases with Dimi Dero Ic (France) and The Cosmic Psychos.
Listen to HIKIKOMORI and there's little surprise the band has spent much of the past few years on the road, chalking up more shows than they could possibly remember around Australia and Europe. If you have ever made it to a HITS show you'd know that live, this is a band you'd spend a long time forgetting. Little wonder then that they have shared the stage with an incredible group of bands including The Scientists, The New Christs, Mustang, The Drones, Digger and the Pussycats, Nunchukka Superfly, The New York Dolls (USA), The Hip Priests (Germany), Bitter Sweet Kicks, The Lime Spiders, The Kelpies, Guitar Wolf (Japan), Front End Loader, Giants Of Science, Legends of Motorsport, Dimi Dero Inc (France), Kim Salmon, Psychotic Turnbuckles, The Stems, The Dirtbombs (USA), The Deniz Tek Group, The Cosmic Psychos, HOSS, Ultra Bullit (France), The Nation Blue, The Powder Monkeys, Mick Medew and The Rumours, The Leftovers, Tumbleweed, Violent Soho, X (Australia), The Go-Set, The Dunhill Blues, Head On (France), Endless Boogie (USA), The Gin Club, Sixfthick, Spencer P Jones, Grong Grong, Penny Ikinger and countless more.
But the live show is just part of the story. HITS write simply great songs – boiled to the bone, stripped of pretense and posturing. Which is probably why The Courier Mail last voted their song 'Take Your Pills' as one of the top 50 best Queensland songs ever written and the band have had a track in the listener-voted Triple Zed Hot 100 top ten for six years running. This is a band people genuinely love – or hate. Take a listen, go see them. It's your call.

We have certain freedoms in Western society which we regard as inalienable rights. The US constitution states certain rights such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of movement. But could it be possible that we restrict ourselves, or that the nature of our economic reality in the post-bust era confine some of our freedoms?
It's worth taking a look at five forms of freedom which are within our reach, assuming we are willing to be assertive enough to make them our own.
First there is freedom of choice. We are able to choose where to live, where to work, how much to spend on food and transportation, and to some extent even where to go to college. Second there is freedom of association – we have a choice in who shares our lives, and this includes our right to privacy. Third there is freedom of speech, where we are extremely fortunate here in North America to be able to express ourselves mostly freely. Fourth there is a freedom which is not as high-profile but it is powerful because it has the ability to restrict all the other freedoms – this is financial freedom, which we will discuss. Then finally there is a freedom which we sometimes forget that we have – choice of attitude.
Let's look at these five degrees of freedom and how we could make them work for us in our quest for happiness.
5 Freedom Of Choice
From the cold North of Alaska to the sunny climes of Florida, and from the results-driven East Coast to the more laid-back West Coast, America offers many choices of where to make one's home. To a certain degree one can choose where to work, and also where to live. This choice of abode is strongly influenced by our financial position.
The fourth freedom – financial freedom – could vastly broaden someone's choice of which corner of the country to call home, since people who are not dependent on employment income can choose to live pretty much anywhere, with the job market stresses completely removed from the equation.
Another freedom of choice is that of where we work. Whether one is financially independent or not, there is sometimes value in continuing some form of employment, even if it is volunteer work. Non-profit or unpaid work could feed our passions and grant us a deeper sense of meaning.
Furthermore, thanks to economies of scale and ample competition, we have a wide choice in food products and grocery items which we need on a daily basis. We could shop at a discount store or buy organic produce at farmer's markets. As far as transportation goes, most cities and towns have ample public transit and dwellers of large cities sometimes don't need to spend money on a vehicle at all.
It is the choice that stems out into other freedoms, and which could lead to attaining financial freedom faster, especially if it means avoiding debt. Students starting their academic life also have a wide choice of post-secondary options, from community colleges to world-class universities. But this is driven by whether you chose to work to your best potential during high school and beyond. Have you made full use of all the freedoms of choice you have?
4 Freedom Of Association
This freedom goes far beyond the question of who one wants to 'Friend' on Facebook, or 'Connect to' on LinkedIn. Ensuring this freedom for ourselves includes taking care of our online privacy and protecting our identity.
Recent research from Princeton University showed that browser cookies can be used to build an alarmingly accurate and detailed picture of an individual's online activity and could even identify someone. This practice is called 'cookie linking' and could compromise one's privacy.
One way to protect oneself against trackers and cookie linking is by installing tools such as a tracker blocker from Ghostery.com. The recent HeartBleed bug debacle only emphasizes the need to protect oneself. Young people are also increasingly gravitating toward smaller online circles where there are fewer or no advertisements, and of course where there are no parents either.
3 Freedom Of Speech
The right to freedom of speech is laid down in the first amendment of the constitution of the United States. Freedom of speech could be defined as the right to publicly express any opinions without restraint or censorship.
Citizens living in most of North America and much of Europe take this right for granted, but shockingly this freedom is nonexistent or highly limited even in the 21st century, censorship still going strong in countries such as Egypt and, increasingly, in Ukraine. Americans could use freedom of speech to be vocal about injustice all around the world. One doesn't have to be a billionaire to be an activist for freedom.
2 Financial Freedom
Are you falling into a debt trap? Don't pay lenders for the rest of your life. Be very cautious when taking on debt and pay it off quickly. One of my financial heroes is David Bach - author of "The Automatic Millionaire". Bach writes simply that the slow and steady approach of paying ourselves first (setting aside a small amount every month) could bring the reward of financial freedom.
Financial freedom means no mortgage or other debt which forces us to be in employment. This brings the ability to experience more freedom in the first three categories which we discussed. Owning one's own home (however modest) free and clear should be a priority for anyone hoping to taste financial freedom. The Tiny House Movement is a manifestation of this trend, where people of all ages are building themselves small but affordable homes in highly creative ways, all in an effort to avoid the debt trap.
Another manifestation of the financial freedom trend can be found in many of the world's large cities, where many people have opted out of car ownership thanks to the quality and availability of public transit.
1 Choice Of Attitude
Sometimes changes occur in our world over which we have little control. We could suddenly become ill, or lose our job. In 2008, according to an article by David Goldman in CNN Money, a total of 2.6 million jobs were lost. This was the biggest job loss since the end of World War II.
Even under such circumstances we still have the ability to choose how we will react. In 2009, a woman called Angela Logan baked apple cakes to save her Teaneck home from foreclosure. Her story is now the subject of a movie and an inspiration to many. Optimism is an action whereby we choose to see the positive daily, even when it is not easy. When facing challenges, we always have the choice to look at all angles and select how we will move forward. This choice of attitude also has an impact on our health. According to an article by the Mayo Clinic we can reduce stress and live a healthier life by taking a glass-half-full approach.
We have the power in our own hands. We can all choose to harness the five degrees of freedom right now - we can choose to speak out, to be selective about our associations while still remaining open and inclusive. We can truly find financial freedom if we are committed to it, and even the step of thinking about these choices is a positive step and an optimistic action.

Some weekends are just good. This was one of them. Honestly, I needed it. A weekend full of good food, wonderful friends, and adventure. Tyler and I have been so busy with work and church that we needed some time to recharge together and have no agenda. Friday night we went to Bocado and had the best burger (its my favorite!), you have to try it! Saturday we roamed the city, stumbled upon some cool walls, went to Eventide Brewery (it was or first time & loved it) and tried out O4W pizza for the first time. It was just the best!
Don't let your busy schedule get in the way of enjoying life. Life is too short and this beautiful weather won't last long…so enjoy it!

Today's restaurant highlights a great spot in Buckhead called Lusca. This was our first time at Lusca and we were impressed! First of all they have happy hour from 5-7 Monday through Friday with half priced oysters! We arrived around 5:30 and had dinner reservations at 7 but we had to take advantage of the happy hour! We were able to sit with some friends at the bar with no problem or wait which was nice. We ended up sampling the majority of the oysters (we couldn't pronounce or remember the names of over half of them) but we can tell you they were all delicious! The presentation was top notch, they were served in a tin pan over a bed of ice with lemon, and plenty of things to add onto the oysters. The bartender recommended a refreshing cocktail to pair with it and we ordered the LA RAMBLA which included gin, tonic, campari, elderflower, rosemary. We closed our tab and then went to our table. It seemed pretty empty up until around the time of our reservation at 7 and then it suddenly was packed out. The cool thing about Lusca is they have a rotating dinner and beer menu. Of course you have some dishes and beers that are always available but there are a few you can only get on certain days. After eating all those oysters, we weren't starving but of course had to try some things on their regular menu. For an appetizer the table ordered the Rock Crab which was basically this amazing avocado toast, with a bedding of delicious crab meat. Another person at our table ordered the Uni which was a pasta with sea urchin. It sounds strange but I promise it was so good! It is always good to be open minded when going to restaurants you will be surprised what you like! For entrees we ordered the burger (which I believe is one of their rotating entrees). It was recently voted in the top 8 burgers in Atlanta, and after eating it we surely know why. We also split the hanger steak which was cooked to perfection just as we ordered it. Although we could've stopped eating after that, but we wanted to make a run at their dessert menu. This is also rotating and this particular night we had their fruit tart dish which was served with a scoop of ice cream. Overall, Lusca gets 10 out of 10 stars from the vibe of the restaurant, to the service and most importantly the food and drinks. Go give it a try and tell them EatYourHeartOutATL sent you!
One of the essentials of living in ATL in the Summer is going to the Braves game. They might not be having the best this year but I will always support the home town team! Regardless of their record I think the best thing about going to the games are the Holeman and Finch hamburgers. Call me crazy, but they make paying for the ticket and parking worth it!
Here are some tips to take your Braves experience next level:
1. Bring a small soft sided cooler, pack that with water and sodas. It will save you lots of $$$ and the games are hot!!!
2. I will share a secret with you, and it helps you avoid paying crazy amount of money on tickets. Purchase tickets in the 400 level behind home plate! Tuner Field has a killer view of Atlanta and its under the shade…double bonus!!
3. Get a Holeman and Finch burger. Just do it and then tell me how great it is. But beware, there are 2 different stands around the field but not all of them give you fries and a burger. Don't fall for the non fry trap!
4. Enjoy the game! Take pride in your home town team and show them your support!

One of my favorite things around Atlanta is the art. You can turn down almost any road in Atl and see a beautiful mural on the side of a building. One my of favorite pieces that have popped up lately is by The Outer Space Project. The walls photographed below are so stunning!! The detail that went into each piece is pretty tremendous – if you look carefully, it looks 3d. These walls are located near Krog City Markets at 10 Krog St NE, Atlanta, GA 30307 and are by Hox, Ricky Watts, Greg Mike.
Ps – Tyler is a good sport to be my model at all the walls. You know you have a keeper when he puts a smile on his face & endures all my pictures in 97 degree weather.
