Your plate rack is beautiful, and some times it takes a lot of energy and time to be moving around. When I find something I really like, it stays put. JackieReplyDelete

Great Ways To Make Sure Your Auto Is Repaired Correctly
It would be horrible to be driving away from home when your car breaks down. Not only do you have the hazards of other vehicles driving by, you must also find a mechanic so he or she can make repairs to your vehicle. How are you going to find a great mechanic? Use the following tips to find the right auto repair service.
Do not hire a mechanic until you are sure they have experience with this particular make and model. If they say that they have, this should be a good indicator that they have some idea of what needs to be done to get your car back into shape.
Have records for your car on hand. One good place to keep them is in a folder in the trunk right above your spare tire. The mechanics who work on your car might need to go through these records. This will help to diagnose any problems.
Each time you get your vehicle repaired, no matter what the reason, be sure you have a record of it. If you experience future problems with your vehicle, this past record will help the mechanic in diagnosing the problems. If you don't have these kinds of records it could cost you more because you won't be able to locate the problems quickly.
Do not let mechanics do repairs that are not warranted on your car. Good mechanics will inform you of parts wearing down that need replaced soon, but they won't replace them without getting your approval first. If a mechanic does unnecessary repairs, find someone else who is more trustworthy.
Replace your light bulbs on your own. While it's easier in some vehicles than others, it's a whole lot cheaper to do it yourself. Ask someone you know if they can instruct you on how to do it.
Try finding a reliable mechanic who works from their own garage. As long as they have experience they can do the same work but they often charge far less for the labor. You could save a lot of money this way.
Do your friends or family have any recommendations for good repairers? You may get some great recommendations from friends and family. You'll still need to do some investigating. At least look for reviews online.
Know what all the lights stand for on your dashboard and be aware of when they go off. They're there to assist you, so take advantage of them. Do not ignore these lights or you might have to pay for more expensive repairs later on.
Find technicians to do your auto repair tasks instead of your dealer. There are many great technicians all over the place. If you are more comfortable with one of them, by all means use them.
Repairing your car yourself could be hazardous. Don't ever do repairs alone. Put your money towards purchasing good tools that will last. Nowhere is this more applicable than with the items you use to change a tire. The jack you buy needs to support your vehicle well. Approved jack stands, working in conjunction with a high quality hydraulic floor jack, are the best tools for tire changes.
Even if your car only seems to have a small issue going on, you should definitely have it looked at. A seemingly small problem may grow into a major one if don't pay attention to it.
A good mechanic will likely have some credentials. Learn if they have been given the seal of approval by any automotive institutes. This means that the mechanic is knowledgeable and reliable.
When you find a mechanic you like, stick with them for all of your auto repairs. Stay with an auto repair shop you have trust in instead of seeing different people all the time. You may get different diagnoses of your car's issues if you go to different places. This means that your car repairs may end up costing you more.
Knowing how to find the right mechanic for your auto repairs can be tricky. When you have good information, the choice can be much easier. Asking the right questions and understanding red flags is key. The next time your vehicle plays up, keep this advice in the front of your mind.

I've been itching for a journey for quite a while now, and finally the plans have been made. We're going to India, and I cannot wait! The journey is, in so many ways, the reward for me. I love the adventure, I love the hunt, I love never knowing what kind of colorful magic I'm going to find down the next alleyway. I will admit that this trip is going to be more stressful than our last, as my business has grown quite a bit. So there are lots of things things that I will have to maintain from overseas. But where there is internet, there is a way! I want to let all of my customers know that during my absence, there may be a slight shipping delay. From November 13- December 20, expect your orders to take a few extra days to ship. Sorry to add to your holiday stress, but that's the way it is!
I promise to share pictures of the journey here, and on my social media outlets. So if you aren't following me already, now's the time. Here are my feeds:
Off to plan for my travels.
Until next time,

People I Wanted to Be, by Gina Ochsner
While browsing a bookstore in Florida last week, I was startled to discover that my old college friend Gina Ochsner has just published a new collection of short stories, entitled People I Wanted to Be. Released by Houghton Mifflin (with the implication that a novel comes next), this new book is a followup to her 2002 collection, The Necessary Grace to Fall. "In this offbeat, affecting follow-up to her debut collection," writes Publisher's Weekly, "Ochsner assembles a host of oddballs whose touchingly resilient hopes and small leaps of faith fly in the face of almost certain disappointment. Ochsner knows that vindication and inspiration often come from unlikely places, and she can capture this contradiction gorgeously in a gesture."
People I Wanted to Be includes a tale called "The Fractious South", which I was similarly startled to discover in The New Yorker last summer.
An online interview with Gina, in regard to her new book, can be found here.

"Dance Moms" Star Indicted For Bankruptcy Fraud
When a Pennsylvania bankruptcy judge channel-surfed one night, reality star Abby Lee Miller's fame translated into possible prison time. For those who don't know Miller, she's a dance instructor who appeared on a reality show called "Dance Moms." The show debuted in 2011 on Lifetime and followed young dancers as Miller taught them dance. Many people watched for the nasty things she said and the conflicts between her and mothers of dancers.
Bankruptcy Fraud is Abuse of the U.S. Bankruptcy Law
On December 3rd, 2010, Miller filed bankruptcy in a U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Pittsburgh. According to her petition, she owed more than $350,000 to creditors. Bankruptcy is a legal process which allows a person or business, called a debtor, to obtain a fresh start. There are many different types of bankruptcy. The most common ones are Chapter 7, where debtors agree to an elimination of debts in exchange for the sales of their assets. It also could involve a repayment of debtors over time, also known as Chapter 13. Abby Miller filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, where parts of a business are severed in order to save the rest of the company.
Regardless of the type of bankruptcy a debtor files, the first rule is honesty. In her reorganization plan, Miller honesty listed four businesses she owned:
- Abby Lee Dance Co.
- The Dressing Room
- Maryen Lorraine Dance Studio
- The Tight Spot
Her liabilities included the more than $350,000 mentioned above, a dance studio mortgage, home mortgage, taxes owed to school district and county where she resided. According to bankruptcy documents, her income was about $8,000 per month and assets totaled slightly more than $320,000. She claimed she did receive some money from her reality show, but didn't have a contract with Collins Avenue Entertainment.
Approximately two years later, Judge Thomas Agresti was set to approve her bankruptcy. However, the judge saw her performance on a national television show and commercials for another show. He determined Miller may have lied to the court.
Unfortunately, Miller may have forgotten bankruptcy isn't a "scripted" reality show. She eventually came clean about the more than $280,000 she didn't include in the bankruptcy petition.
Federal agents claim she actually opened a separate account to hide her income. The agents also claim she advised others to keep her income quiet and hide more than $700,000 from the bankruptcy court. In October, Miller was indicted on 20 criminal counts of bankruptcy fraud. If found guilty, Miller faces five years in prison and/or a $250,000 fine for each of the 20 counts.
What Is Bankruptcy Fraud?
Bankruptcy fraud is the act or attempt to delay, hinder, or defraud either the bankruptcy court and/or creditors. Sometimes this type of fraud can turn into a criminal case like the situation Miller is involved in now. Debtors like Miller don't realize that they can't conceal assets from the court. The court isn't being nosey when it wants an honest list of assets. Disclosing assets is vital for the bankruptcy court to determine what it needs to collect from the debtor and sell any of the debtor's property to pay creditors. If the court can't adequately determine how much money the debtor has, it can't pay creditors and/ or eliminate debts.
Elements of Bankruptcy Fraud
Will Miller be convicted of bankruptcy fraud? She's innocent until proven guilty. The prosecution will have to prove the following to prove her guilt:
1. The debtor made a misrepresentation
The prosecutor will have to show Miller made a misrepresentation about her assets. Allegedly Miller told the Court she did make some money from her reality show and appearances, but she received mainly publicity from them. Federal agents supposedly discovered more than $700,000 in undisclosed income. The undisclosed income carries a lot of weight when trying to prove she made misrepresentation.
2. The debtor knew the statements were false when she made them
This element points to the intent of the debtor to commit fraud. If Miller is proven guilty, prosecutors will have to show she knew she was lying at the time she claimed not to make money from the television shows. This can be proven in different ways according to the evidence. For example, she said she didn't make money from the shows, but set up a separate bank account and had checks withheld would show she made false statements.
3. The debtor made the misrepresentation with the purpose and intent of deceiving the court or creditors
This element requires showing Miller intentionally made misleading statements to the court with the intent to deceive. In the indictment, Miller supposedly wrote an email to her accountant talking about making money so she could stay out of jail. This would point to the intent to deceive creditors. Therefore, prosecutors could prove she claimed not to make money from the reality shows and appearances to deceive creditors into believing she was paid via publicity.
4. The creditor or the court relied on the misstatements
The best way to describe this element is that creditors believed the debtor's claim of not having money or assets. Miller allegedly told creditors she made about $8,000 per month. In reality she actually had more than $280,000 in additional income at the time she was caught by the channel-surfing bankruptcy judge. Creditors can easily claim they believed Miller and prosecutors would prove the element.
5. The creditor sustained some damage or loss because of the alleged fraud
The creditor would have been paid some or more money if told of the hidden assets. Miller's creditors may have received money or additional property if she'd allegedly told the truth. This may be a tough one since her bankruptcy attorney claims there was no loss to her creditors because of the undisclosed funds.
Bankruptcy is Not a Scripted Reality Show
Miller isn't the first to be accused of bankruptcy fraud. She won't be the last. Many people want the financial freedom bankruptcy gives, but not the possibility of having assets taken. It's certainly understandable. Creditors are looked at as greedy. Debtors are too broke to be giving property a trustee for sale. Unfortunately, there has to be give and take in bankruptcy law for the debtor to receive a fresh start.
If Miller is convicted, she can look at the bright side. There's the possibility of a new reality series once she's released from prison.

The BRCA Kent group supports women who have been identified as having an inherited BRCA 1/ 2 gene mutation which means that their likelihood of developing breast and/or ovarian cancer is much greater than the general population.
Formed in Maidstone by volunteers it became clear to BRCA Kent that women in East Kent who had had a positive diagnosis were also in need of support, so a satellite group was established and now meets monthly (not July/August) at The ABode Hotel, High Street, Canterbury.
The East Kent group is co-hosted by Natalie Gawler (22), from Herne Bay, who at just 18 years old discovered she had inherited the BRCA 1 gene mutation from her paternal grandmother.
She explained: "My Nan was diagnosed with breast cancer aged 32 and she also suffered with a number of secondary cancers. She became involved with a research programme at the Royal Marsden Hospital which identified her as BRCA 1. Seven of her 10 grandchildren are girls and she always told us about the gene and that we should be tested.
"Sadly Nan died in 2009 but as soon as I was 18 I knew that wanted to know if I had the gene or not."
Natalie's sister Danielle (20) has also been identified as BRCA 1 and both attend the East Kent BRCA group.
Natalie added: "The other ladies in the group are at different stages of their treatment or surveillance and it gives me reassurance that I don't have to make any decisions about surgery or treatment just yet. Everyone chooses a different path to follow but just talking to the other members helps allay my fears and means that I'm not constantly worrying about the choices and my decisions."
Suzannah Fitzgerald is a breast care nurse specialist running a family history clinic and has helped set up the East Kent group.
She said: "Finding out you have a mutated BRCA gene is a very emotional experience and support for women is still patchy. Our group is strictly for those who have had a positive diagnosis so they know exactly how each other feels. Just to have the opportunity to share your feelings, or even a cup of tea or a shoulder to cry on can make a huge difference."
BRCA Kent received a £500 Macmillan grant. Jane Viner, Macmillan Engagement Co-ordinator, explained: "Our Supporting You to Help Others Grants Programme helps give people affected by cancer the opportunity to use their experiences to support others while at the same time getting support for themselves."
There is further information available on the BRCA Kent Website or through Twitter @BRCAKent and Facebook BRCAKent (closed group).
For more information about the grants as well as advice, information, support and training and how to apply for grants to set up or develop your group contact your local Macmillan Engagement Co-coordinator.

Metal Fence Mono, is a Monophonic mix compiled to a stereo file type, because nearly all devices play a stereo file, type whereas, very few devices play a dedicated Mono file type. This allows you to hear and play a Mono mix on almost any device. A mono mix is best for playing on devices with one speaker, or in an environment where you might be closer to one speaker, like in a car, or at a crowded party. In these conditions, with a stereo or surround file you would only hear what was coming out of the speaker you are closest to, and may not be able to hear the whole song at all... With a Mono mix, you hear the whole song out of every speaker. Great for listening in a noisy environment. The Mono mix is like listening to a band, from the view point of the audience, looking toward the stage, from about half way back, on an arena floor. Quite an exciting mix, and very natural sounding. The first recordings were monophonic, and just because many new technologies have come out since, like stereo and surround, monophonic recordings are still a great choice, and as the least expensive to produce, they are the super bargain of today.
Michael Kegg Records Production Stereo mix, is a high quality digital mix, which will play on virtually all devices, whether you have one speaker, or several, including, but not limited to, stereos, quadraphonic, surround sound, headphones etc. Stereo mixes sound like you are on the floor of an arena, listening from about ten rows back, looking toward the stage from the audiences perspective. Stereo mixes are extremely enjoyable, when listened to in headphones, or any situation where you are almost an equal distance, from right, and left speakers. Stereo mixes can have any combination of sounds, coming from either the right, left, or both speakers, at any given time, which adds to the dynamics, and creates ambience, as the sounds seem to open up, and give a feeling of direction, space and clarity. Stereo mixes are extremely popular.

DP World Australia's Sydney terminal had the unusual task of unloading some special cargo.
Mtundu, a 15 month old giraffe was unloaded from the Hamburg Sud vessel Hammonia Galicia, on his way to his new home at Mogo Zoo in NSW.
The project to move Mtundu was a carefully orchestrated exercise requiring the cooperation of many parties.
Having travelled from Auckland Zoo in a specially built enclosure, the giraffe was lifted off the vessel at DP World Australia's Sydney terminal onto a low loader truck which was waiting on the wharf.
The truck exited the port in the early hours of Saturday morning before hitting the highway, safely delivering Mtundu to his new home at Mogo Zoo on the south coast of NSW.
The 500 kilogram giraffe was joined on his journey by a support crew including specialist animal handlers and veterinarian staff.
Thank you to our crew who worked professionally to unload this unusual cargo.

Paraphrasing is one of the best ways to stay original and pass an online check for plagiarism even though you use ideas expressed by other people.
It won't be difficult to imagine a situation, when you read academic works of some scholars and come across a brilliant idea you'd like to mention in your own work. There are two methods how to do it: to quote the scholar giving a reference to his/her work or paraphrase the idea and, again, give a reference to the author. As you can see, there's no other method – plagiarism. It's not the way out.
This is how plagiarism finder improves paraphrasing
So, you may be wondering what way plagiarism checkers can help you boost your paraphrasing skills? Let's see how it works in practice based on the Unicheck example.
Before running a check with Unicheck, you can make similarity searches less sensitive by indicating a certain percentage of duplications that shouldn't be considered by the Unicheck tool. Why? This way you omit all four-word phrases which may turn to be frequently repeated introductory words, idioms, set expressions, etc.
Thus, you will focus only on a larger set of matching words. After you run a check for similarities with Unicheck and receive a plagiarism report, you need to thoroughly analyze all the highlighted areas. These are spotted duplications that you should paraphrase and correctly attribute.
Some handy tips to turn paraphrasing into an easy job
Since Unicheck also indicates similarity percentage for each duplicated source, there's practically nothing left to do: One by one, you reword highlighted passages in your writing.
We'd like to provide you with a few quick tips on paraphrasing so that this process can be easy and enjoyable for you:
- Read a text carefully trying to understand its key message. Only after you can formulate it in other words, take down some notes. Don't look at the original text not to be tempted to copy it.
- Change sentence structure: turn passive sentences into active, choose a different subject of a sentence, use introductory words to show your attitude towards an author's thoughts. Divide a sentence into smaller ones by adding some explanation.
- Learn to use synonyms. If you find it difficult to pick up the right synonym, make the most of the thesaurus.com.
For more practice in paraphrasing passages taken from a book or article, check out these pieces of advice.

The thing I love about this dish is the simplicity and how good it tastes.
4 Drumsticks
2 potatoes and 1 sweet potato all cut into chunks
1 crushed clove of garlic
30g of unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon of paprika
1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon of dried basil
1 and 1/2 juicy lemons
2 tablespoons of honey
Squeeze 1 lemon in a small pan over a medium heat, add the butter, the herbs, the paprika, chilli flakes, salt, garlic, pepper, honey and rosemary. Stir until the butter is completely melted and everything is combined.
Lay out the potatoes and chicken on a roast dish and pour the butter over it covering everything. Cut the other half lemon into wedges and tuck it amongst the drumsticks like in the picture below, isn't it pretty?
Roast for about 50 minutes until the potatoes are golden and crisp.
Serve with salad or rice or veg or whatever you fancy!

It has been several months so I have been able to block out that horribly stupid thing I did. But now it's come back to bite me in the ass.
Tonight is the first practice for cheerleading. Practice for which I am supposed to teach them things like cheers. And I'm thinking that teaching them dirty cheers will be um, frowned upon? Yes?
To make this season just fabulous, I've learned that the town's most annoying woman had her daughter placed on my team.
Anything you can do, she can do 20 times better. She knows everything and will happily tell you just how wonderful she is. It is going to take every last bit of restraint to not stick my coach's handbook up her right nostril.

As a Texan, I continued to be humbled by profound bravery and goodwill during yet another devastating hurricane season. Like most everyone, I was glued to the television as Harvey ripped through Houston with an unmatched ability to destroy homes and lives. Residents clung to what was, hoping to protect and recover what remained. I saw an amazing news story about ordinary heroes in Houston, who formed a human chain to rescue an elderly man from floodwaters. The story crystallized the beauty of strength and extension in motion and the fortitude to succeed in times of crisis.
As IT leaders, you wholly understand day-to-day crises and the need to protect and recover from a disaster. It's why I want to highlight how Hitachi Global–Active Device (GAD) with long-distance disaster recovery can aide your business continuity strategy.
End-to-end, unified data protection, retention and recovery management framework
Not being prepared for downtime or an outage can capsize operations, sales, budgets and the business itself. No doubt, you're expected to meet uninterrupted data availability and avoid security threats within considerable resource constraints.
Business risks for anything less than 100% uptime
In the era of nonstop digital everything, data unabashedly grows and morphs without any regard for your ability to harness, store, protect, retain and govern it. And, with the world's digital information storage doubling every two years, you'll need to perform more heroics to manage raw data growth effectively as the business evolves. You must weather everything all the time — get in front of epic challenges before they wreak havoc. Time is a luxury no one has.
Brokering that level of digital resilience takes courage. But what other choice do you have? Every organization has those seemingly unattainable stretch goals, whether acquiring new market share amid intense competition or offering new customer services despite bottom-line worries. Who doesn't want an infrastructure architecture that's flexible enough to transform the business? That delivers both ubiquitous high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR)?
Weather experts cryptically spout warnings of catastrophic "not ifs but whens." Similarly, in business, we all want to flourish in the face of unknown but certain future crises. Hitachi Vantara and Brocade bring beauty to strength with a singular, unified blueprint for impenetrable data resilience to help you win in the digital space.
A crisis can sink even the best-laid plans if your team has to tinker with application-specific configurations and tools and software. We believe in a holistic and cost-effective approach to data resilience across town, multiple data centers or the world. Rather than costly and fractured DR solutions, our unified data resilience architecture helps you deliver bigger, faster connections across longer distances and improve performance and cost factors.
Modern data protection implies that coverage will be global and comprehensive across every aspect of your enterprise to evoke digital resilience. Conventional wisdom for disaster tolerance is to ensure proper distance between production sites and DR locations.
Going the distance for disaster tolerance
If the sites are too close in proximity, they can be affected by the same regional event. If the sites are too far apart, you deal with data transfer latency and subsequent risk. The Goldilocks rule applies here: finding that "just right" distance to protect all the data all the time. We bring the fabled power of extension to support replication of mission-critical over any distance.
Our solution combines all-flash digital infrastructure, the industry's only 100% data availability guarantee and advanced global-active device technology with next-gen network extension. It's an end-to-end, unbroken chain for protecting your replication, recovery and retention ecosystem. Think: Category 5 data resiliency for the digital age.

Here's a surprise. It's fascinating to watch somebody desperately trying not to use the letter O. If someone asks Sasha, a sweetly tortured character in Amina Henry's "The Animals," something that demands a negative answer she says, "Na." But it's harder to fudge addressing her boyfriend, Bob, who wonders why she keeps calling him Mr. Mills.
Sasha (Leta Renée-Alan) is one of five joyously individual schoolteachers at Peabody Elementary who gather in the teachers' lounge in Ms. Henry's engaging one-act at Jack, the four-year-old performing arts center in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn. Over an academic year of 10 scenes, one per month, stuff happens:
Gloria, enormously pregnant in the fall, has her baby. Bob sinks into depression when his wife leaves him. Sasha decides that changing one tiny detail in her life (giving up a letter) could be transformative. Sasha and Bob have sex in the teachers'-lounge bathroom. Dot, the newbie who likes to repeat her "positive affirmations" while looking in the mirror, faints from anorexia.
And Faulkner? She's the best, going through life in a knowing, matter-of-fact state of confident deadpan that Samuel L. Jackson would envy. It's strange to see her wearing a tiara in June.
Cheers to the entire cast, which also includes Melissa Diaz as Dot, Amelia Fowler as Gloria, Richard McDonald as Bob and Isabelle Pierre as Faulkner.
There's nothing exactly transporting about "The Animals," but it's consistently intriguing, and in the end it's more than a character study, although that would have been enough. It's also very smartly directed by Gretchen Van Lente, who is so versatile that she pulls off a neat trick, making it seem that Ms. Renée-Alan has been directed by someone else entirely (maybe Lorne Michaels). Emotionally, she occupies a different universe but has to live and work with these earthlings.
There's a lesson here. If things don't seem to be going well in your life, if you feel as if you've been living in an Ivo van Hove drama or a Quentin Tarantino movie, hire a new director. I may give the Coen brothers a call.

The Internationalist Prison Books Collective does a lot of really great things for imprisoned human beings, including publishing booklets and spreading news which is often suppressed and not widely known.
In the summer of 2012, a prisoner who had been repeatedly beaten with impunity by guards at Central Prison's notorious Unit One began a lawsuit against the prison and against NC DPS.
This lawsuit soon expanded to become a class action with seven other prisoners who had had similar experiences at the same segregation unit. In particular, guards were known for taking prisoners to "the desert," a camera-less area of the facility, to beat them. Serious injuries occurred.
Now, one of those prisoners, Stanley Corbett, Jr., has reported to us by letter that he is being retaliated against by the guards at Warren CI in Manson, NC, to which he was transferred after beginning the lawsuit.
Retaliation has included censorship of mail, denial of medical treatment, and urine in his food.
Corbett has announced that on Monday, August 25th, he will begin a hunger strike until such retaliation ends.
Supporters are…

Colorado jam favorites The String Cheese Incident are about to embark on a serious milestone….their 25th-anniversary celebration! Starting with a New Yr's run at Broomfield, CO's 1STBANK Middle on December 28th, 29th, and 31st (get tickets right here!), SCI will begin what's already trying to be an enormous silver anniversary celebration in 2019.
Whereas they'll welcome no direct help for the New Yr's run, Cheese has introduced various particular visitors set to hitch them throughout their very own units. Bluegrass brethren Sam Bush and Darol Anger might be featured friends on the 28th, and Robert Randolph and Dumpstaphunk's Ivan Neville, Ian Neville, and Tony Corridor will assist convey out the funkier aspect of The String Cheese Incident on the 29th. Outdoors of the 1STBANK Middle exhibits, the band has introduced multi-night runs in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, St. Louis, New Orleans throughout Jazz Fest, and New York…all locations which have performed a task within the progress and evolution of the band. And there's nonetheless extra to return, as SCI gears up for a very busy yr.
Through the years, the group has all the time been capable of keep one step forward in relation to creating distinctive experiences for his or her followers, from their storied Horning's Hideout occasions to their return from hiatus at Rothbury in 2009 (which might go on to grow to be Electrical Forest) to the now-annual Suwannee Hulaween celebration down in Florida. All of the whereas, the band has labored with a few of the greatest manufacturing groups on the planet to create unforgettable spectacles for followers of all genres to take pleasure in and enjoy.
With a sound that has advanced from a extra conventional bluegrass sound within the early Rocky Mountain years to include funk, digital, and world music influences, The String Cheese Incident has, for higher or worse, embraced the change and located methods to permit the musical tastes of every band member to shine brightly all through their historical past. 25 years is not any straightforward feat for any band, making this celebration that rather more particular for the potent sextet of Billy Nershi, Michael Kang, Kyle Hollingsworth, Keith Moseley, Michael Travis, and Jason Hann.
We caught up with keyboardist Kyle Hollingsworth to debate the "then" and "now," the band's current artistic songwriting method by means of their Sound Lab studio, and what else is on the horizon for the gents of Cheese.
"Rivertrance" – NYE 2013 [Pro-Shot] [Video: The String Cheese Incident]
Reside For Stay Music: The band continues to be commonly creating new music, and really a lot nonetheless on the street. Are you guys having as a lot enjoyable now as you probably did again within the day? What are some variations between then and now?
Kyle Hollingsworth: It's like several relationship, actually. Virtually like being married. There's this new type of love and infatuation these first few years, a wild type of enjoyable. After which issues evolve, individuals change, however your love modifications and also you react accordingly to these modifications. With a band, you're coping with a number of personalities, and typically simply have to follow and jam for an hour or so for everybody to get again on the identical web page after being away from it for somewhat bit.
With the Kyle Hollingsworth Band, I get to exit on the street and see youthful bands like Pigeons Enjoying Ping Pong and Twiddle, and it's thrilling to see that youthful fan base go wild at exhibits. Issues are definitely totally different 25 years into it for us, however definitely not totally different in a nasty method. It's nonetheless as a lot enjoyable because it's all the time been.

KH: That was an concept that Jason delivered to the desk, and we had a number of enjoyable with it. Particularly with the video, all of us simply playing around and maintaining issues foolish. With songwriting during the last six months or so, we're every taking the lead at factors on numerous songs and going from there. We've now launched Jason's "Manga", a Travis music, a Keith music, and now we're on the Sound Lab engaged on Kang's subsequent music. It's enjoyable in that all of us are taking artistic management and letting issues move.
"Manga" – SCI Sound Lab (Single)[Video: The String Cheese Incident]
L4LM: It looks like the Sound Lab has been the definition of a artistic area for the band since being constructed, and has allowed the band to be always releasing new music.
KH: The Sound Lab has been unimaginable for us. We come collectively when the time is true, write music, and launch a music when it's prepared, as an alternative of releasing an entire album, which appears to be a dying artwork type, sadly.
L4LM: On the album observe, do you assume that releasing singles solely has been good for the band, so far as songs getting the eye and listens they deserve?
KH: I do assume that has been a very good factor, come to think about it. Typically songs get misplaced within the shuffle of a full album. It undoubtedly works for us, for positive.
L4LM: It appears like 2019 is gearing as much as be an enormous one for SCI. Jamaica, Vegas, Jazz Fest, Tahoe, The Cap, The Fox in St. Louis, and extra. Already looks like a busier-than-usual yr for the band. Are there nonetheless bulletins in retailer?

L4LM: SCI simply introduced particular visitors for the New Yr's run as properly, with Sam Bush & Darol Anger (12/28) and Robert Randolph, Ivan & Ian Neville, and Tony Corridor (12/29) set to hitch in. How have these guys performed a task within the Cheese sound through the years, and what can we anticipate from these sit-ins?
KH: I'm actually amped to be bringing these guys, who've all influenced us ultimately through the years, to hitch us on stage. The New Yr's run goes to be a variety of enjoyable, as we will probably be creating a really immersive expertise for all three nights, with issues occurring all through the whole 1stBANK Middle. Jason got here up with some concepts based mostly on his expertise at Meow Wolf in Santa Fe, New Mexico, which have been tremendous cool. We'll even have some previous movies of the band enjoying through the years and a few new stuff that you simply'll simply have to attend and see.
L4LM: Do you continue to have these profound moments with the band in any case of those years?
KH: There [are] nonetheless profound moments on each tour, however on this final tour, as an example, it was the second-to-last night time on one of many runs. And it all the time appears to work out that means. With the final night time of some runs, individuals have house and household on their minds, however the second-to-last night time, every thing simply comes collectively and everybody's power simply connects. We have been on the bus after one present, particularly, and all of us simply clicked on an entire different degree. I all the time advocate coming to see the second-to-last night time….issues all the time mesh and go off just a bit bit extra, for some purpose.
L4LM: SCI has achieved these splendidly curated and really creatively "Cheese-like" occasions similar to Horning's, Electrical Forest, Hulaween, and so forth. Are there different occasions like these on the horizon?
KH: We're all the time taking a look at new concepts and methods to create these "magic spaces" for each the followers and band alike. It's one thing that has all the time been essential to us as a band. In retrospect, I keep in mind being youthful at Grateful Lifeless exhibits, or some pageant, and tenting on concrete and simply having a unique expertise altogether. Nice occasions, however totally different. As a band, we've all the time tried to take these experiences and create one thing that the followers would love and really feel snug and protected in to reinforce their expertise. And it has been enjoyable working with the appropriate individuals to make that occur, and proceed to take action. So, briefly, sure….we're continually enthusiastic about these forms of occasions, and there's all the time one thing new on the horizon to discover.
L4LM: You even have your annual Hoppy Holidays occasion with your personal Kyle Hollingsworth Band, Lyle Divinsky of The Motet, Exmag, Informal Commander, at Cervantes AND The Different Aspect subsequent Saturday, Dec. eighth. Feels like a blast!
KH: It's loopy to assume that's arising subsequent week already! I used to be simply chatting with Lyle from The Motet about some track concepts for us to collaborate on, and it's going to be numerous enjoyable. He has nice power, and guys like him and Dom Lalli (Huge Gigantic) have such a strategy to get the gang amped up, whereas I'm like, "Hey, thanks for coming, it's going to be a great time, and we have awesome beer here!" Guys like which are capable of command their area and convey one thing else to the stage.
[Photo: ontheDL Photography]
L4LM: And Hoppy Holidays, as all the time, shall be that includes some collaborative beers you probably did with numerous breweries. For this occasion, you teamed up with each Joyride Brewing Firm and New Picture Brewing for the Brut IPA and Imperial Stout, respectively.
KH: YES! I'm such a beer nerd. I'm actually excited for the Brut IPA. It's taking that crisp dryness of a champagne and merging it with an IPA. I'm actually enthusiastic about that. And the Imperial Stout makes for an ideal winter beer, with each lavender and blueberry being infused into that blend.
L4LM: Better of luck with the 25th-anniversary celebration, Kyle! Thanks in your time.
KH: Thanks a lot!

You might come across as being cool, aloof and dispassionate. You may even have cold hands or feet, become easily chilled and have a slow metabolism. Without a lot of work, life's fast lane is probably not for you.
TIP: Add more red coloring to your wardrobe and your environment. Add ginseng to your diet. Eat more spicy foods, especially cayenne pepper. Enjoy more moderate physical exercise early in your day. Get a home that faces south. Live in a warm, sunny environment. Use a fireplace or a wood stove. Burn candles.
Four or more planets in Earth signsYOU COULD MANAGE A BUSINESS
You tend to be the practical sort: down to earth and concerned with material comfort and security. You favor "the real world." Inspirations, feelings and ideas don't mean so much to you as do practical applications, immediate ramifications and tangible results. Concrete facts are your thing. If you can't see it, smell it, hear it, feel it, taste it or touch it, you figure it isn't significant. Dreams and theoretical considerations might not mean much to you.
Being pragmatic, you don't usually take chances with your time, money, energy or your feelings. You tend to be dependable, although folks in the fast lane may find you a bit conservative and dull.
If you find that you're becoming bored or depressed, you should realize that your values are misplaced, and that your sense of security is false. If you're not happy, change your status quo and embrace the unknown. When paralyzed by fears and inhibitions, breathe deeply and move slowly and deliberately towards what you want.
If you put your mind to it, you could cultivate your green thumb. Outward beauty is important to you. Working with your hands can pay off. You can shape the materials of the earth into sellable products. You're well suited to have your own business, provided that you've chosen it.
Essentially, you need to be assured that everything's O.K., safe and secure. Once that's taken care of you are ready for gracious living. That is to say, you need some good food, antique furniture and passionate sex, possibly with extra probing fingers. You like to touch nice things, own nice things, wear nice things, eat nice things and have nice things. Touch or the physical world is real and gives comfort. In fact, "I Have" is something of a Taurean philosophy of life.
It is important that you acquire some mastery over the physical, practical and earthly world. Then, paradoxically, you must learn to let go. You will only find security by acquiring a sense of self that is separate from what you possess. Actually, it's not so much about what you possess, but about not being in "survival jeopardy".
You're naturally tactful and diplomatic. You can see all points of view. You can see another person's point of view as well as your own self interest. Altogether, you prefer to deal with pleasant realities. When you're under too much emotional stress, you vacillate and procrastinate, especially when it has something to do with money. After all, you're adaptable and you want to do the right thing and be fair.
You respond to the spirit of fairness. You do some of your best work on a one on one basis. You could be a professional peace maker.
TIP: You need to find the right balance between your own needs and the needs of other people in your life.
You have a eye for beauty. There's something sophisticated, refined, graceful, polished and courteous about you. Grooming is important to you and your skin and hair are beautiful. You're naturally charming and an idea person. You're peace loving, except when provoked.
You see love as a 50 50 proposition, see your partners point of view and are willing to meet them half way. Be sure to meet them in front of a mirror, privately.
You need partnership, including mental compatibility. When your primary relationship is going well, you're most happy.
It's not likely that you'll jump to conclusions or be rushed to make up your mind. Also, once you make a decision, you are more than hesitant to change. You have a pretty clear idea about what you want and what you don't want.
Your love is ardent and encouraging. You can be passionate, impulsive and sensuous. Romantic adventures matter to you. Venus encourages you to actively assert yourself in the spirit of love.
Deep emotions and strong desires are yours. You spare no effort to deeply probe many secrets. Your sex life is the best, or the worst. Having sex with you can be heavenly or hellish. You're hot stuff, volcanic actually.
Prosperity and abundance are part of your natural philosophy. You like the nice things that money can buy. Perhaps sometimes you're overly self-indulgent and other times you're generous. Having the right values will insure your success.
You need to learn to truly let go. Be realistic about psychology and the human dilemma. More than most people, you are limited by the amount of responsibility you take for yourself. TIP: Deal with the needs of the present.
You're something of a constructive nonconformist. You get a seven-year itch to establish new traditions. It is important that you free yourself from restrictive responsibilities and corporate interests. You can succeed by combining hard work with innovation. You can challenge authority, society and the status quo.
When it comes to home, family and country you're part of a generation that tends to be idealistic. Your religious beliefs are sentimental. If your very foundation seems uncertain, take another look at what makes you feel secure.
Knowledge is your greatest power. Part of your job is to speak the unspeakable. Reorganization is the permanent condition of a vigorous mind. It is extremely important that you exert more conscious willpower over your own thoughts and speech.

Yale hockey season ended better than it started
NEW HAVEN — It took five weeks for the Yale men's hockey team to find its bearings. And the struggles of the power-play unit lingered for most of the season. Those factors were at the heart of the Bulldogs' wholly mediocre record of 15-15-1.
Still, things were a little better than the final books might indicate. Yale won 12 of 18 games heading into the ECAC Hockey playoffs, playing with speed and a relentless forecheck, until relapsing to early season form during a first-round sweep at the hands of Quinnipiac.
"We were much better in January and February," Yale coach Keith Allain said Tuesday. "In fact there were a couple of games I thought we were the better team and weren't able to get the win. I was feeling good about the group but we didn't play well in either of the playoff games and that's why the season ended."
Yale was 3-7 on December 1, a loss at Rensselaer that marked the team's fifth successive defeat. Defensive zone mistakes were threatening to torpedo the entire season. Yale wasn't defending well in its own end. And when it did have the puck, turnovers were common and costly.
Cleaning up the mistakes helped bring more victories. And while junior Joe Snively (19 goals, 36 points) proved himself to be one of the league's most dynamic players, a crop of underclassmen forwards made great strides to provide nightly support.
Luke Stevens and twins Evan and Mitchell Smith became highly effective second-year players, not necessarily as dangerous scorers but as physical forwards who worked to make life difficult for the opposition.
Stevens, at 6-foot-4 and 212 pounds, and the Smith brothers, truly turned things around in the second half. Evan Smith finished as the team's third-leading scorer with 10 goals and 16 points, including a four-goal outburst in a February game against Princeton. Stevens had only six goals and five assists, but Allain believes he's close to breaking through as a consistent scorer.
"Luke was kind of treading water and all of a sudden he was a different player; I don't know really what clicked," Allain said. "The Smiths were the same way. Evan and Mitchell were much better in January and February than they were in October and November. That's important for us."
Snively is drawing some attention as a college free agent, but is expected to be at Yale next season. He finished third in ECAC scoring, behind only Princeton's Max Veronneau and Ryan Kuffner, a dangerous playmaker who'll give Yale one of the top lines in the league no matter who's alongside.
The Bulldogs are focused on finding another line of reliable playmakers.
"If you look back when we had really good teams here, all of them had two lines that could score. That's what made us hard to beat on any given night," Allain said. "Joe has proven you can build a line around him and do it with different types of players. The challenge is to find another line that can produce offense on a regular basis."
Freshmen Dante Palecco and Kevin O'Neil showed flashes of goal-scoring skill. Junior Ted Hart saw his numbers dip, but has 19 goals over the past two seasons. Phil Kemp, a freshman, and Charlie Curti, a junior, are defensemen with good offensive instincts.
"Kemp is a warrior, but he's got to refine his game and be more predictable with what he does than with what he does erratic," Allain said. "O'Neil can have his thumbprint on the game way more often than he did this year. He and Dante are offensive players that can be more game-in, game-out presence, which could make us a dangerous team."
A strong recruiting class should also solve some scoring problems, especially on the power play. Yale's failure to move the puck effectively, particularly from its defensemen, was at the heart of its struggles. Jack St. Ivany and Graham Lillibridge, the two top-scoring defensemen in the United States Hockey League, are capable of running the power play from the point and could be missing pieces to that puzzle.
Lillibridge, listed at 5-foot-9, 155 pounds, plays for the Chicago Steel and leads the USHL with 36 assists. St. Ivany, an NHL prospect at 6-3 and 200, has 27 assists and 33 points.
Forwards Curtis Hall (Youngstown, USHL), Justin Pearson (Islanders HC, United States Premier League) and Kyle Johnson (Prince George, BCHL) should also contribute offense to Yale.
Of the five seniors leaving the program, only forward Ryan Hitchcock and defenseman Adam Larkin had regular roles this winter. The influx of talent should make competition for ice time more intense. That will be particularly fierce in the defensive core, where nine players compete for six positions.
"Early on the d-core, to a man, wasn't very good," Allain said. "As we got better, their overall play rose. I think the final weekend our d-core wasn't good again. That's something we'll concentrate on. But the fact is we'll have nine D next year, and not a lot separates them. The challenge for them is to be sure they're one of the guys in the lineup."
Yale junior forward Joe Snively and Quinnipiac junior defenseman Chase Priskie were named second-team All-ECAC Hockey, the league announced Tuesday.
Quinnipiac freshman forward Odeen Tufto was named to the all-rookie team and a third-team all-league pick.
The all-league first-team included forwards Ryan Donato of Harvard, Max Veronneau of Princeton and Sheldon Rempal of Clarkson. Harvard's Adam Fox and Clarkson's Kelly Summers were the defensemen and Cornell's Matthew Galajda was the goaltender.

I found this little sketch online - I saved it with the name of the artist, and now don't know what site I found it on, duh! I've included it because it's pink and it's charming and quirky and I wish I could loosen up more to draw like that.
And a charming little bee - which I've been as busy as...
And some coffee quotes, as I've definitely over-dosed on caffeine this week….
"A cup of coffee shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent." Anonymous
"Behind every successful woman...is a substantial amount of coffee."
Stephanie Piro
"Black as hell, strong as death, sweet as love."
Turkish proverb.
"Chocolate, men, coffee--some things are better rich."
"Coffee: creative lighter fluid."

Here's a lovely blog you may not have seen before: Christine's Beadworks.
Christine does lovely work: very intricate beading, as you can see from the examples in her header - and also very interesting bios on artists I otherwise might not have heard of. (I'm a little prejudiced as I just finished her background and header). Do go and take a look - and say Hi from me.

Meet ex pioneer Sean Franklin, pictures here flaunting a para Regt tattoo on his holybobs giving it big licks and demonstrating his para landing shit dits with the other holiday guests
This creature was one of the worst useless soldiers I have served with and just noticed he's now sporting a parachute regiment tattoo. There is no way he went into the paras.
The checks.
Not hard one really as there is no record of a Sean Franklin having ever passed P Coy or attending RAF Brize Norton for Military Parachute training.
So why did get the tattoo?
What his fellow soldiers had to say
We attempted to contact Sean but sadly as per WSOP he did a side left off Facebook
What a Cumper!

A Gurugram tech startup for hotels is available on your mobile and the famous name is OYO. Ritesh Agarwal founded this in May 2013. It is available in 200 cities of India. Its mobile app is very user-friendly and you can book a hotel room in seconds. Payments can be done online or offline.
It used to cover a total of 3 countries at present- India, Malaysia, and Nepal. Its mobile application was launched in 2013 with the website. It's providing a facility of 7000 hotels covering 70, 000 rooms in total.
Investments and funding include 5 rounds starting from 2013 to 2016:
First, 4 rounds amount is undisclosed and the last round took place in Apr 2016, which was Series C. The funding was done by SoftBank including 4 Investors. The amount of funding is $200M. There are total 7 investors in these 5 rounds of funding.
It is having 1k-5k employees. In order to enhance its business, OYO Rooms acquired ZO Rooms on 10 Feb 2016.
Let's have a look into its journey, ups and downs, and a famous success story.
OYO contains 7000 hotels with 70,000 rooms with different prices depending upon the facility a customer requires. It is giving a competition to many such businesses running in the market before its existence. Goibibo, Clear Trip, Makemytrip are the few examples which made their space in the market but OYO arrived and took a highlighting position with its awesome schemes and strategies.
Ritesh Agarwal, the CEO, came up with this idea at a very young age. He is a college drop-out like many other famous millionaires in history. In 2013, he came up with an idea of 'OYO' (On Your Own). He started with a single hotel in Gurugram having 14 rooms, in which OYO was giving service in 11 rooms. At the age of 17, he dropped out from his studies as he was having a clear idea of becoming an entrepreneur. He took admission in a Business and Finance School but mostly used to attend entrepreneurship programs: 'The Thiel Fellowship for under-20 Entrepreneurs'. His main reason for success at very early age is his determination and smart work. He explored the path of success by making contacts and expanding his network. To start his career, he received an amount of $100K, which proved to be a great help.
How did the idea come up into the limelight?
He used to travel a lot. In his journies, he noticed that the hospitality provided by the hotels in India in not very good. Instead of complaining about the management system, he himself thought of changing it and creating an example. As it is said, change starts from you, he proved it right.
It started from a hotel and now it's a big brand. His dream of becoming an entrepreneur has come true by his true efforts. It's having a rating of 4.3 out of 5 from more than 1.1 Lac customers. This much trust is built in just past 4 years.
It's an Indian e-commerce to break records and get profit in just 4 years of its establishment. A statement by Ritesh Agarwal, "No Indian traveler deserves to stay in those kinds of places, no matter what he pays. It is this trust deficiency that OYO is trying to combat". The tagline of OYO Rooms says, "AurKyaChahie", which shows the confidence of the service provided to the customers.
Competition in the market.
OYO is not the only one hotel service, although, it gained success and high profits. Its main competitor present in the market is 'Makemytrip', 'Goibibo' and 'Yatra'. According to a report, MMT makes approximately 5000 hotel bookings per day. OYO promises you best experience at a reasonable price.
Latest Update.
OYO Rooms appointed Anil Goel as a Chief Technology Officer. The leadership team will be under the assistance of Anil Goel. He worked as a Global Head of Technology in Amazon.com, who used to look after the customer returns and reverse logistic business. He joined OYO after 20 years of experience in the field of making software applications or technology infrastructure.
Talking about SURVIVAL.
The business strategy is all about making the things work in your favor.It's not easy to thin of a business which already has many competitors in the market and already successful in their fields. In such a scenario, OYO showed up and hit the market with its good hospitality management. The main concern of Ritesh Agarwal is the hotel charges and the hospitality given to the customers. The companies which were present in the market were charging very high rates even for low-quality accommodations to the travelers. Therefore, he decided to start a service where people can come and enjoy their stay within affordable prices.
If a customer visits a hotel through OYO, he can avail a good discount as per the deal of the hotel with the OYO, comparative to the direct visit to the hotel.
According to a report, it is having 2.7 lakh subscribers on FB, 8,000 followers on Twitter and around 1.5 million downloads of the app from the store with a number of active users.
According to an article in Economic Times, the latest funding round closed at $250M through SoftBank Investor, and presently it is valued at $850M.
OYO and Its Aim.
While helping people in searching the places to live during their travel periods, it also promises a good hospitality at a reasonable price so that anyone can afford. It's not only helping the customers but also giving opportunities to the hotel owners who are still hidden from the world, to enhance their business.
The Aim of the OYO:
- It has launched OYO cafe, OYO We for Women Travelers and OYO Premium for High-end users.
- Helps in creating great experiences for the customers as well as the hotel owners. This helps them in looking for the needs of the customers and fulfilling them, which ultimately increase their business opportunities.
- Helping hotels in building amazing experiences by helping them providing reviews of the customers. Therefore help them focus on their services.
Its connections with Airtel has helped in providing wi-fi facility in the hotels. The tie-ups have helped a lot in its success stories such as ZO Rooms, Thomas Cook, Air Pegasus and Tourism and Hospitality Skill Councils.
Campaigns run by OYO Rooms over social media for its fast growth:
- Dubsmash Contest
- #AurKyaChahiye videos
- Father's Day campaign
- IPL Final Verbal Combat.
- Jai Hind
