FIR is Aase's fourth album.
Norwegian guitarist Andreas Aase plays Scandinavian acoustic music. Drawing inspiration from art, books, music, nature and buildings, he carefully constructs folk-based tunes and improvisations in an ongoing musical conversation between the past and the present. He usually performs alone, as on the records "Tre" and "V. (Bach)", but also enjoys surrounding himself with his favorite musicians, for example on the quartet recording "Fir". Andreas has brought his Nordic-sounding guitar music to concert audiences in North America, Germany, Scandinavia and Great Britain, he records for Øra Fonogram, and he plays instruments by luthier Arnt Rian.

Blister Packaging is a Vital Piece of the Pharmaceutical Industry
When you have a headache, it can be a serious hassle to try to fuss with tightly sealed packages that hold aspirin or the other meds you need. When all you want to do is take a pill and hop in bed, struggling to open the package can be an unwelcomed hassle. However, pharmaceutical blister packaging is often used to seal and protect unit dose pharmaceuticals in the United States and, though it can be a pain to get packages open from time to time, clinical manufacturing companies play an important role. Without them, the pills and other items that you need for your headache and ailments might not maintain their effectiveness while they are in the process of being transported to your cabinet.
There are several different types of blister packaging and they can all be customized to meet the needs of specific

In New Zealand there are no "lodges" operated by the heli-ski providers. You need to find your own accommodation during your visit.
Why? In North America it is common to get out most days, but here in New Zealand the game is more weather dependent. Most heliskiing in NZ is sold as single, or multiple single days - thus no need for longer-term lodging.
Mt Cook Village and the wider Mackenzie area offers every level of accommodation - all within an easy drive to our helipad.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Matt Forte scored three touchdown runs & Ryan Fitzpatrick finally solved Rex Ryan's defense, leading the New York Jets to a 37-31 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night.

Forte finished with 100 yards rushing, & the offseason free-agent addition became the 13th New York player to score three rushing touchdowns in a game.

Bungalow and garden at Manu Wildlife Center
The Manu Wildlife Center is located in the wild and remote Manu wilderness of Peru along the Manu de Dios in the Manu Biosphere Reserve. The Lodge provides a perfectly comfortable base for wildlife enthusiasts, photographers, birders and those who simply want a true relaxing rainforest experience. The Lodge counts on a Tapir and Mammal Lick, the Blanquillo Macaw and Parrot Clay Lick, 2 walk up Canopy Towers and floating catamarans on 2 ox-bow lakes for observing Giant Otters and other lakeside birds and wildlife.
Rosario Velarde owner and general manager of Manu Expeditions is an Owner and Founder of the Manu Wildlife Center and we will ensure that you truly experience the Peruvian Amazon.
MAJOR ATTRACTIONS: Clay Lick for parrots, parakeets, and red and green macaws; tapir and mammal clay lick; jungle walks and boat rides for wildlife. Two canopy towers an easy climb up 144 regular stairs, Giant River Otters, 30 kilometers of rainforest trails, 2 ox-bow lakes with floating catamarans, 11 species of primate, over 600 species of birds plus much other mammal life.
The Manu Wildlife Center Lodge is owned by Rosario Velarde of Manu Expeditions in conjunction with a Peruvian Conservation group, Peru Verde. We are hands on family company. The Manu Wildlife Center is a 44-bed lodge located on the Madre de Dios River only 60 minutes by motorized dugout canoe from the confluence of the Manu and Alto Madre de Dios rivers. Manu Wildlife Center is a privately owned rainforest reserve, which forms part of the Manu Biosphere Reserve. It is located in the Cultural Reserved Buffer Zone, set aside for indigenous Amazonian peoples. The lodge is on the banks of the Madre de Dios River in pristine rainforest.
Access is by river, road and commercial Airbus 320 flights from Puerto Maldonado to Cusco or Lima. Manu Wildlife Center consists of 22 double bungalows built in the style of, and using the same materials as the local Amaekaeri indigenous communities. Local wood, bamboo and palm fronds for roofing are used. All materials used have been sustainably harvested or brought in from distant areas. For example, the wood used in the construction is collected from the river as, each rainy season, hundreds of trees are washed into the river as it cuts its ever-changing course. On an average every three or four years the river actually enters the lodge towards the end of the wet season (around March) therefore all the bungalows are raised and connected to each other and the rest of the lodge facilities by gravel walkways. Each room has good quality foam mattresses and all beds have cotton sheets and quilts (best for hot tropical conditions). Although all the rooms are screened with imported insect netting, beds are furnished with individual mosquito nets. Furniture includes bedside tables and writing tables. The bungalows are arranged around a pleasant and well-planned Amazonian garden with plants and shrubs that attract birds, butterflies and mammals. All bungalows are private and separated from each other for privacy and all have large windows facing the forest and garden. All the 22 bungalows boast en suite private toilet and shower facilities. Hot and cold water is always available. The large dining and bar/lounge areas are separate from the other facilities but close to all bungalows and the nearby kitchen area. Food is good and wholesome not gourmet, and we use a variety of fresh vegetables, fruits, grains and meats in our menu. Our cooks are used to providing for vegetarian diets. There is a separate spacious bar and lounge area adjacent to the dining area. A variety of cold non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages are always available here. Wi-Fi is available for some hours each day at lunch and in the evening when the lodge generator is running and several power stations provide energy for charging camera batteries, Tablets and notebooks. There are no phones or cell phone signal.
Manu Wildlife Center frequently has onsite researchers and scientists - we are proud to sponsor their research. As a lodge we actively promote and give a helping hand to students and post-graduates who do various kinds of scientific research in the area. These scientists are always happy to share their knowledge and expertise with visiting guests. The lodge relies heavily on workers from the local Machiguenga and Piro indigenous communities and provides jobs and training that help better the standard of living in the local villages without prejudicing their ideal-or idealistic life-style. We offer them choice and opportunity that, prior to tourism, did not exist.
The lodge is strategically located in an area of forest that counts on the highest diversity of microhabitats in the Manu area. There are more than 30 kilometers of trails. This means that there are more species of animals, birds, reptiles and insects than elsewhere in Manu. Terra firma, transitional floodplain, varzea and bamboo forest is found close to the lodge plus successional willow and cane stands on beaches and river islands, resulting in the highest bio-diversity in the Manu area. An astounding 600+ species of birds have been recorded around the lodge.
The Blanquillo Macaw and Parrot lick is only 25 minutes away by river and we use blinds to get you close to this amazing wildlife spectacle, where up to 200 Macaws and many hundreds of their smaller relatives come to eat clay essential to their digestion. There are 4 ox-bow lakes in the area and we have floating platforms so that access to the lakes ensures that all lakeside fauna can be readily observed. There are 3 families of the endangered Giant Otters on these lakes and small streams. About an hour's walk through the forest is a large mammal lick where Tapirs, the largest South American land mammal, and other mammals regularly come for minerals.
At night Brocket Deer and other animals share this necessary ingredient to the digestive system. There is a large, raised blind here equipped with mattresses and mosquito nets for those who want to spend the night or a few hours in comfort observing these nocturnal creatures. During the day several species of small forest Parakeets and Parrotlets as well as Guans, Curassows and Black Spider Monkeys regularly visit the lick. Canopy access is easy at Manu Wildlife Center. There are also two static canopy platforms in large canopy emergents that are accessed by a metal, spiral stairway that anyone can use at any time. It is the only accessible canopy platform of its kind in Peru.

When Melanie began standing up to her toxic parents, when she began establishing boundaries with real consequences, she realized that she had the same problems and patterns with toxic boyfriends.
She'd always picked boyfriends who criticized, demeaned, controlled, abused, and bullied her – in the same ways her parents had. And she'd given in to them just like she had to her parents. She'd complained and argued, but she'd never left.
The hold she allowed them over her was also the same as she'd allowed her parents to have. They had something she wanted so she gave in and tolerated everything they did. No, not what she wanted: what she thought she desperately needed to have right away that she thought she couldn't get on her own.
They said they could teach her skills she wanted to learn or introduce her to the right people or get her jobs. She thought, and they reinforced, that she'd never get it so easily without them. She thought she needed them to make the life she wanted. But they only came through a little bit and only if she paid a high and ever increasing price.
Also, they always thought they were right and they were righteous about it. They stimulated her self-questioning and self-doubt. Her self-esteem plummeted. She really thought she was needy and dependent. The cycle got worse with each new relationship. Maybe, she thought, they were right. They seemed certain and she was certain that if she didn't do what they wanted, she'd never succeed. Maybe, she thought, that's the way the world is or that's the way all men are.
When she looked at her friends, she saw that most were in the same types of relationships with their demanding boyfriends or husbands. Some of the details were different, but the patterns were the same.
The friends that were in healthy, non-toxic relationships said they'd support her, but she would have to make the first moves herself. She'd have to free herself, no matter what the cost. Then and only then, would they help her. They also said they were tired of her whining and complaining but lack of effective action.
The stronger Melanie got setting boundaries with her parents, the clearer her relationship patterns became. Her fear and desperation decreased. She became determined and courageous. She began setting boundaries and getting rid of the toxic boyfriends. She became determined to make it on her own, even if that took longer and would be harder.
Surprisingly, once she started freeing herself, unforeseen opportunities opened up. She stopped complaining and soon had less tolerance for the whining of others. As most of her desperate and needy old friends left her life, old, strong friends and her new friends did help her.
More rapidly than she expected, the weight lifted from her shoulders and she felt free. And she took advantage of the opportunities.
What's the price of tolerating bullies? Slow erosion of your soul!
The best way to stop bullying by toxic boyfriends or husbands is to hire Dr. Ben for personalized coaching so you can:
- Develop the strength, courage, will and determination to do your best resolutely, diligently and effectively, and to set boundaries effectively.
- Develop a plan and master the skills necessary to create a bully-free personal life.
Since all tactics depend on the situation, call me at 1-877-8Bullies for expert coaching by phone or Skype.

Reader's Apartment with a "Cozy Boutique Feel" in Singapore
We received another apartment from one of our readers which we would like to share. This home and its interior ideas belongs to Hong Li, a graphic designer from Singapore. Here is the description we received: this crib is "a small, limited space two bedroom duplex apartment of 861sqft. 430sqft upstairs where I have 2 bedrooms and 430sqft downstairs where i have living room, store room and kitchen. In order to have a bigger living room, kitchen cabinet separating the living room and kitchen was demolished to create an open concept kitchen like we see in the photos. A drop leaf dining table is mounted on the side of the oven and induction cooker cabinet. Space under the staircase was converted into study area. A semi circle desk was created for this purpose, including drawers and movable cabinet for printer & fax machine storage.
Lots of black is used for my apartment, hoping to give it a cozy boutique hotel feel. A living room wall is decorated with picture frames (gold, black and white color). They are hanged by nails and the layout of picture frames is changeable. I love chandeliers, and they were extensively used in this small house, even wall stickers for bedroom's doors are chandeliers too. Ceiling roses ~ which was normally used in palaces, is also being adopted in my house design. I sew all the drapes and curtains in the house." Even though these are not professional photos, we appreciate our reader's ability to capture significant details. Check out the state of the crib before Hong Li redecorated in the last four photos. Freshome readers, what do you have to say about this duplex?

Pathways & interactions
GIY-YIG endonuclease (IPR000305)
Short name: GIY-YIG_endonuc
Overlapping homologous superfamilies
- GIY-YIG endonuclease superfamily (IPR035901)
Domain relationships
Nucleases of the GIY-YIG family are involved in many cellular processes, including DNA repair and recombination, transfer of mobile genetic elements, and restriction of incoming foreign DNA. The GIY-YIG superfamily groups together nucleases characterised by the presence of a domain of typically ~100 amino acids, with two short motifs "GIY" and "YIG" in the N-terminal part, followed by an Arg residue in the centre and a Glu residue in the C-terminal part [PMID: 10219084, PMID: 12379841, PMID: 15692561, PMID: 16646971, PMID: 19361436].
The GIY-YIG domain forms a compact structural domain, which serves as a scaffold for the coordination of a divalent metal ion required for catalysis of the phosphodiester bond cleavage. The GIY-YIG domain has an alpha/bera-sandwich architecture with a central three-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet flanked by three-helices. The three-stranded anti-parallel beta-sheet contains the GIY-YIG sequence elements. The most conserved and putative catalytic residues are located on a shallow, concave surface and include a metal coordination site [PMID: 12379841, PMID: 15692561, PMID: 16646971, PMID: 19361436].
The GIY-YIG domain has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes involving DNA cleavage, from self-propagation with or without introns, to restriction of foreign DNA, to DNA repair and maintenance of genome stability [PMID: 16646971].
Some proteins known to contain a GIY-YIG domain include:
- Eukaryotic Slx-1 proteins, involved in the maintenance of the rDNA copy number. They have a C-terminal RING finger Zn-binding domain.
- Mamalian ankyrin repeat and LEM domain- containing protein 1 (ANKLE1).
- Bacterial and archaeal UvrC subunits of (A)BC excinucleases, which remove damaged nucleotides by incising the damaged strand on both sides of the lesion. Paramecium bursaria Chlorella virus 1 (pbvc1).
- Phage T4 endonucleases SegA to E, probably involved in the movement of the endonuclease-encoding DNA.
- Phage T4 intron-associated endonuclease 1 (I-TevI), specific to the thymidylate synthase (td) gene splice junction and involved in intron homing.

Interactive Sound Poster Prints
IDEA: Make poster prints audible.
WHAT: An engaging visual work that responds to human touch or is played like a theremin, where proximity and movement control its synth-like abstract sounds.
WHY: New technology doesn't need to defeat old, the combination of both can unlock new possibilities.

President Donald Trump holds some of the strongest ties to golf from the political world. His footing in the game is not only international; it ranks in the form of billions of dollars. Yet he's also become one of the most controversial public figures in the world.
How does that align with professional golf, in which many events take place on Trump-owned courses? Well, if the professionals had it their way, those courses would continue to host some of the sport's biggest events.
According to the Sports Illustrated/GOLF.com anonymous player poll of 50 PGA Tour pros, 88% said the PGA Tour and USGA should not move their events from Trump courses. Just 4% said the organizations should move on, while 8% said they did not care.
Below are a few of the more passionate responses:
"They should stick with the best venue, period," one pro said.
Another added: "I think it was appropriate to separate themselves from him during the election, but now that he's president, they should only move events if he's impeached or something."
The Trump course question was just one of a number of survey questions posed to the pros. Check out the full survey here or take a portion of the survey below.

Today, I got the chance to see a 35-minute gameplay demo of Dragon Age: Inquisition. To be honest, I'm not sure why you're reading this part. If you watch my videos, you know I hate doing introductions. They're awkward and you know why you're here. You're sitting there wanting to see the info about the game, no? Damn right.
Well, friend, let's just go over the basics.
Companion Reveals
Dorian is a Tevinter magister who wants to help rid the stigma surrounding Tevinter. To restore its honor, he joins the Inquisition. He was trained by another magister named Alexius.
Although Sera has already been a confirmed companion pre-E3, she is now confirmed as a female-only romance.
Second Part of the Demo
After a lot of dragon gameplay, the demo moved into what happens after a series of branching events based near the end of the Mage/Templar conflict. Your experience in the game will vary, depending on your Inquisitor's actions. This playthrough used a female Qunari mage.
In this part of the demo, the Inquisitor is accompanied by Dorian, the Iron Bull, and Sera. In Redcliffe Castle, the mages have created a base of operations. However, the heads stationed have grown silent and the Inquisitor must investigate the cause.
Making her way through the castle, the Inquisitor saves Leliana, who was being questioned and tortured by one of the Venatori. The castle itself was rumbling, as it was slowly being split apart (as seen in the trailer). The group engages demons protecting a Veil rift inside the castle. Later, after attacking one of the Venatori spellbinders, the Inquisitor loots a red lyrium shard. "What in Andraste's name is that!" Dorian exclaims, and tells you to keep it for later use.
Then, the Inquisitor meets Alexius: a Tevinter magister and Dorian's former mentor. Alexius has done horrible things, including something twisted to keep his son Felix alive. The Inquisitor only wants the amulet that he possesses, but Leliana is greatly disturbed by all of this and takes Felix by the throat. He earnestly begs Leliana to let him go. Leliana angrily says, "I want the world back" and slashes Felix's throat open. Seeing his son's death, Alexius attacks the party by ripping open Veil rifts and casting out demons. But in the end, just like Dorian perceives it, Alexius has wanted to die.
After Alexius's death, Dorian exclaims that he has seen the amulet before being used in Minrathous and wants an hour to figure out the spell to use the amulet. However, the Venatori are approaching their way. Sera and Iron Bull sternly leave to protect the doors, while Leliana covers the Inquisitor and Dorian as they use the amulet to create a portal. As the doors are breached and an unconscious Sera is thrown across the floor, and Leliana is wounded by other attackers, the Inquisitor tries to help. However, she stops as Dorian yells that if the Inquisitor moves, they all die. The last shot seen Leliana staring at the Inquisitor as the Venatori takes her by the throat.
Exploration and Environment
Certain areas will have "look points". By viewing through these look points, the Inquisitor can mark and track different "shards" in an area. In the Hinterlands, there are 23 shards present for retrieval.
Specific markers also indicate places to set up camp. These are designated areas; it seems players can't just set up shop wherever they wish.
Remember how the devs said there will be destructible environments? How about constructible? In the demo, the player can construct a previously broken bridge that was signaled by the command "Energize".
Horses can be called and will appear after you "whistle" for them. Other horses and mounts beyond what was shown in the demo will be available.
Spell Examples
One of the spells is a yellow-colored slow, which slows down time for everything except the party. Cold Snap is another.
Firewall is really effective - when casted, it hits everything in the line that the mage strikes. The fire is essentially a blockade at that point, causing a damage-over-time on anything afflicted by the fire. Judging by the gameplay, AI automatically avoids it at all costs (which is good for choke points).
State of Templars
Agrarian Apostate - Item retrieval mission. A woman's husband was killed by templars, after they believed him to be an apostate (which he apparently was not). Certain templars are indiscriminately killing anyone they presuppose to be a mage.

Choice Wheel
While there are some diplomatic, funny/sarcastic, and aggressive choices, there are also some other neutral styles as well. The choices featured in the demo were all role-play specific.
My Personal Thoughts
I am completely fascinated by the trailer. I'm not good with form, so let's just jump around a bit.
Gameplay was smooth and (because I know they nerfed the health of some of these characters for demo reveal) very fast-paced. There are enough spells to wet my whistle, and the color variety and vividness in said spells pretty awesome. I'm glad I have yet to see rock armor or some flashy, ridiculously intrusive and persistent spell like Song of Valor or anything that just stays when you go into conversation (Origins, ha).
I'm actually really happy that the symbols are back to determine what "mood" or "state" can I choose to describe my choice. The example banter between Sera and The Iron Bull (Mayhemmmm) was pretty awesome to hear. I will say, however, that I noticed the body animation reset after Dorian finished a sentence and moved to the next. Of course I expect this from an alpha, but I remember seeing this in DA2 as well. But it's not a huge WTF**kery.
As far as the characters, please let me romance Dorian. Please. I will almost give up Cullen. (Almost.)
Jokes aside, really liking the characters. I think Sera is going to be such a comedian that when she gets serious, you don't know what to do with yourself. Bull is like the splitting image of Javik from Citadel DLC (where he was a lot more fun to hang out with and less of a stick in the mud). It's just the way he likes war and gets giddy talking about it. I'm scared to know that Varric and him may not get along.
Leliana had a HUGE WTF moment during the demo that just totally blew my mind. She looks tired. She looks torn. She might not be the Leliana we once knew and loved...and I'm totally okay with that.
All in all, I think my biggest concern is that I don't know what PC looks like. The demos were console-based (edit: the demo was played on PC but used a controller, so didn't show the PC UI variant), and I am extremely nitpicky about UI elements interfering with enjoying the world (especially in a near open world setting just like this).
Nevertheless, the game is beautiful and plays quite smoothly. I'm going to give it another go at E3 tomorrow (and hopefully not wait two hours to see it again, heh). Hoping to give you all more info in the coming days ahead.

I come from a diverse background complete with both academic and hands-on experience in design, visual art and advertising.
I received a Bachelor of Advertising from the Universidad del Salvador in Buenos Aires city.
After studying graphic design in Los Angeles for a brief time and following a couple years of employment in Buenos Aires, I immigrated to Canada in 2002.
I currently work for an agency that provides communication strategies and targeted marketing services to the pharmaceutical industry. From print and digital to video and booth displays, I help pharmaceutical businesses market their brands and take a lead role from a visual perspective.
From exploration to final execution, I can deliver quality and cohesive design solutions for either large multi-vehicle global projects, or small and local assignments.

I honor my father's generation, the guys who dragged the Nazis, the Fascists, and the Imperial Japanese Empire down to destruction,
and I bear no ill will towards the guys of the current generation who are fighting for something – who knows what – in Afghanistan (someone knows!).Vodpod videos no longer available.
But on this Veterans' Day, I particularly want to remember the brave G.I.'s of my own generation, the guys who refused to kill women and children in Viet Nam and went to prison for their belief in what was right. They refused to pull the trigger on babies and old ladies to up the week's body count, they saw for themselves how wrong the war in Viet Nam was, and they fought to tell America what we should have known all along. Today I want to honor those brave G.I.s.
I can't think of a better way to honor veterans today than to sit home and watch the 2006 documentary 'Sir! No Sir!' If you're in my generation, you'll remember what really went down before terminal amnesia sets in. If you're younger, you can be inspired to mobilize against the power even if you feel powerless. If you've been brought up to believe America is always right, always brave, always the good guys – like I was raised – you can honor the vets by growing up.

Stay awake, away from sleep.
Everything is beautiful at five,
But gotta get past three.
Feel the night eat into me.
Fight off sleep.
The past is friend to me.
The soundtrack to old misery keeps me company.
Heart in my mouth.
Body tingles.
Today is over;
Tomorrow can wait.
Sleep calls with the promise of
Better days,
Better nights.
It lies.
New fears add to old.
Nothing ever gets resolved.
Wonder why I feel this way,
Why no soul is up too
To help hold back the day.

1) I know a lot of people are fed up of hearing about Anna Dello Russo but, well, I'm not. The Coveteur documents what goes into packing for fashion week, ADR-style, here.
2) Gemma's piece about the importance of bra-fitting is totally RIGHT ON. Read it, get your boobs measured properly, enjoy the positive changes in your life. I'm evangelical about this.
3) M.I.A. is releasing a book this October! Apparently it's an "autobiographical monograph in collages". Who cares what that means, with over 300 photographs it's going to look awesome.
4) The new Kings Cross piazza looks amazing. It's never been a particularly beautiful station but damn, it looks good. Also, the plans make the building look like a penis.
5) And speaking of stations, Sourced Market at St Pancras is just so consistently amazing. Such a huge selection of amazing ales, ciders, beers, wines… and the food is fantastic. There is no reason whatsoever to eat a shit sandwich at the station ever again, OK?

Learning by Doing, an extension of Frank Lloyd Wright: From within Outward on exhibit at the Guggenheim, is bolting a love of architecture to the joy of fort building one plank, river-rock and solar panel at a time. The exhibit showcases seven decades of projects from Taliesin students and contains drawings, models and photographs of Frank Lloyd Wright inspired shelters. As an extension of the larger exhibition Learning by Doing comments both on the breadth of the master's influence and the notion of an "extension" itself. The shelters function on Frank Lloyd Wright's guiding principles of the intrinsic spatial and environment relation to line, form and building material. The exhibit functions on the same principle as a revelatory compliment to the larger landscape of From within Outward. In a deft play on the idea of extension the Guggenheim has launched its own 3-D design competition for shelters conceived in the same tradition. Check out this exhibit open through August 23rd.

I aim to stick to politics and current events on this blog. Nonetheless, it being the beginning of holiday shopping season, I thought I'd wade into a business/entertainment topic because I think it ties to some of the broader themes that I try to convey on here.
Pop superstar Taylor Swift recently pulled all of her music from streaming service Spotify. Swift explained that she believes that music has value, and that people ought to be pay for it. Essentially, she did not like the idea that people could stream her albums for free (and that she received very little in royalties from Spotify).
Several other country artists have followed in Swift's footsteps and pulled their latest albums from the streaming service.
Additionally, Patrick Carney of the rock band the Black Keys (who refuse to offer their music to Spotify) ripped U2 for selling their new album to Apple, which in turn, gave the album away (other artists similarly bashed U2 for the move).
I think that Swift and Carney's logic and decisions are wrong on multiple levels.
First, as Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl noted, getting people to listen to your music, by whatever method, will lead to people buying concert tickets if they like what they hear. Indeed, I also think it might lead many people to buy the album if they like what they hear.
I know that in my case, if I'm on the fence about an album, or I listen to a single from a new band or artist, and like what I hear, I'll Spotify the album, and if I like it, I'll buy it.
Spotify does not give someone total control of the music unless they pay for Spotify Premium, which costs a monthly fee. Put another way, you can't Spotify an album in the car, at the gym, or sitting on a park bench or on the beach on a nice day without paying a fee.
People like having these options. As such, they are likely to buy music they like and/or pay for a premium streaming service (and even such a service is only as good as your data plan and your cellular reception).
More broadly, I have several other objections to Swift's logic. First, putting music on Spotify doesn't make it any more free than airing it on radio—as artists have done for decades. People can listen to it, but as explained above, they don't have control to listen wherever they want and on whatever device they want.
Putting music on Spotify is akin to academics sharing their research and their ideas in journals, or on blogs, without being paid. That doesn't mean we don't also write books, or that our ideas are worthless.
Rather, getting your work, or your ideas out to as many people as possible helps to bolster the parts of your work that you sell. If people like what they see, they'll support you in other ways—be it buying books, concert tickets, or even hiring someone.
Second, and perhaps more importantly, Swift, the Black Keys, and other artists and record labels who either remove content from Spotify, or delay putting it on there to avoid cannibalizing sales in the initial months after release are adapting to our new digital world in exactly the wrong way.
It feels to me like music labels, even more than other established industries, cling to atavistic practices and conceptions of their business. They put out singles in advance of albums, release albums with major publicity campaigns, and attempt to charge as much as possible for albums, etc.
Recently, her label delayed Diana Krall's new album release by four months because of an illness that prevented her from promoting the project. I wondered to myself: why not try new, digital methods of promotion (perhaps a creative Youtube campaign), rather than miss the lucrative Christmas shopping season?
Additionally, over the last few years record labels have successfully driven the prices of digital albums up over $10 (and the price of individual songs over $1), and they've fought zealously to safeguard their business through the use of digital rights management software.
But I think they are fighting a losing battle (they already lost the battle over DRM) and need to reconceptualize how they go about promoting and disseminating music.
The best companies in our new globalized, digital economy (Apple, Google, Amazon, etc.) have found ways to make us want things that we didn't know we wanted or needed. They've offered new experiences, or new products, and they've been rewarded handsomely.
By contrast, companies who have tried to resist or limit change (be they brick and mortar book stores, Blackberry, etc) have struggled mightily, with many ceasing to exist.
To me, trying to limit how much Amazon, Google, or Apple discount digital music and/or trying to keep albums from streaming services is exactly the sort of rearguard, defensive action that signifies an industry (and artists) that doesn't get it. Rather than trying to safeguard their business, labels would be better off trying to invent a new business model.
In fact, many in the music industry acknowledge the need for change. For example, U2 is working with Apple to create some sort of new musical experience to encourage people to buy albums.
But artists and record companies would be wise to focus on getting music out by whatever means necessary, and using it to win fans over.
Why not sell digital albums for $5 if you don't believe in streaming them for free? As Grohl noted, if people like what they hear, they'll buy concert tickets, fan club memberships, merchandise, concert bootlegs, etc. Maybe they'd spend more for deluxe albums, expanded albums, albums with explanations from the artist about the genesis of each song, etc.
Alternatively, why not consider some sort of creative bundle model? After years of holding out, Garth Brooks launched his catalog digitally by selling a $30 bundle of all of his albums, including a new album, and another new album next year.
Other creative artists have found endless ways to motivate fans to buy content—Bruce Springsteen launched a concert bootleg series this year (something Pearl Jam has offered for ages), and Radiohead once allowed fans to decide how much to pay for an album.
The biggest threat to musicians and record companies isn't that people will stream albums. Rather, it's that if artists refuse to stream albums and albums become increasingly expensive, people won't hear them. Consumers will Spotify what's available, or listen to music through other streaming services like Amazon Prime, and will never get the chance to hear great music from artists who eschew those forums.
These people will never have the chance to buy tickets or merchandise. They will represent a lost opportunity.
There are endless potential business models that might replace the traditional model—selling albums for a few dollars to anyone who buys a concert ticket or a fan club membership, record labels starting their own streaming services, some sort of enhanced experience (a la what Bono and Apple have planned), etc.
But refusing to change, and instead trying to protect profits by refusing to adapt to the technological world in which we live, strikes me as the option most likely to kill the music business, and do damage to music as an art form.
Much of this blog also applies to the book business, the newspaper industry, and other similar businesses struggling to cope with the digital world and the damage it has done to their bottom lines.
I write all of this with a deep sympathy for artists, writers, reporters, and others affected by the seismic change wrought by the digital world.
I understand wanting to be fairly compensated for your work. After all, as an academic, all I have are my ideas. Yet, being less fan friendly and trying to preserve a model that does not really accord with the times seems like a surefire way to kill an industry instead of saving it.

over the bridge/
and he will lean into your hand, instead of swatting it away because he is no longer afraid that you wish to change or fix him, but feels gratitude in knowing that you accept him as he is.
you've both grown through the worry that the other is trying to change or fix, and accepted that it's love. simple love.
at the tallest rise of that bridge, about halfway over you wil step forward and place your hands on the back of the neck of the only person who loves your children the same way you do.
they will make a semi-circle around you and wait for your clucking and fussing, like a nest of newly hatched birds. and you will know which legs are the most likely to get away if you don't hurry, and which one needs to do get their face over with first.
and you will want to stop at the rise on that bridge and stand still: to see if you can hear that girl. but you won't have time, because there's rushing water under that bridge and a curious child that needs your swift feet and firm hand hold.
but she's there, you can feel her.

By BH1 on Tuesday, August 01, 2017After about 1000 miles I can say that this truck is great. There are a few reviews out there that suggest the powertrain is lacking, but after learning to drive it, I feel the powertrain is great. The problem seems to be in the transmission according to some. When in D the transmission behaves similar to most vehicles that are set to eco mode. Late shifts, poor power etc. However, Toyota has engineered workarounds. Simply sliding the gear shifter over to S lets you limit use of the overdrive gears, keeping the truck in the powerband. There is also an ECT power button that modifies the shift pattern for later shifts. I pull around 3,000lbs with this truck 3-4 times a week. Put it in S4, hit the ECT button and it pulls as expected for a truck this size. Dont listen to the negative reviews, it is goofy how Toyota programmed this powertrain, but it is completely adequate after you learn how to drive it. I find the interior comfortable enough, and the car seat fits nicely in the rear. It looks great and has great utility and tech. Really the only negatives of this truck are the lack of a power seat, lack of passenger side keyless entry and no option for leather in the TRD models. But hey, nothing out there is perfect!

Best looking and functional truck on the road
By PTTaco on Thursday, November 16, 2017This is my second new Toyota truck and it is an absolute dream. Dont listen to the bad reviews until you drive one. Mine is a 2017 TRD Off Road double cab with the premium package. The engine has plenty of power (278HP) and the transmission is easy to get used to. The only downside is the price. They are expensive but well worth it it if you plan on keeping the vehicle for an extended time. They have the highest resale value of any vehicle on the road.

2017 SR5 4wd Crew Cab.
By Golfer on Thursday, July 20, 2017Prior to purchase, I saw mixed reviews on the new generation. Initially the transmission seemed to be a bit jumpy. But is it a learning transmission. I took it out on a 700 mile trip through flat lands and mountain passes. The transmission settled down and is now really smooth. I would suspect if you driver it hard, the transmission will remember that and learn accordingly. The engine seems to have plenty of power and if you need a little more spunk for hills and towing, there is a button on the dash below the 4x4 nob that will change the shift patter. The seats are great. The new model seats are a bit more elevated that the previous years. Still could use a little more option for adjustment, but it is adequate. Mine has the lumbar adjustment, very effective and easy to us. I am 6 foot and I fit just fine in the truck with head room to spare. I test drove a Sport model as well. The Sport seats seem to set you lower into the seat and the bolsters were a bit to aggressive for me. I found my self having to lift myself out of the Sport seat to try to get out. The SR5 seats sit up a bit more and I just slide out of them. My SR5 came with a factory installed tonneau cover and the tow package, which I highly recommend both. Initially the suspension seemed a bit bouncy on ruff roads, but after the long drive on various roads and terrain, it seems to have settled down. Around town I am averaging 18-19 mpg. But, out on the highway at 65 to 70 mph I saw 24. Anything over 75 dropped the mileage down to 21. The truck is really easy to maneuver in parking lots/spaces. If fits well inside of the garage.

The fantasies driving school reform: A primer for education graduates - The Answer Sheet - The Washington Post - 5 views
shared by Steve Ransom on 14 May 12 - No Cached
Richard Rothstein
In truth, this conventional view relies upon imaginary facts.
Let me repeat: black elementary school students today have better math skills than white students did only twenty years ago.
- ...11 more annotations...
As a result, we've wasted 15 years avoiding incremental improvement, and instead trying to upend a reasonably successful school system.
But the reason it hasn't narrowed is that your profession has done too good a job — you've improved white children's performance as well, so the score gap persists, but at a higher level for all.
Policymakers, pundits, and politicians ignore these gains; they conclude that you, educators, have been incompetent because the test score gap hasn't much narrowed.
If you believe public education deserves greater support, as I do, you will have to boast about your accomplishments, because voters are more likely to aid a successful institution than a collapsing one.
Because education has become so politicized, with policy made by those with preconceptions of failure and little understanding of the educational process, you are entering a field that has become obsessed with evaluating only results that are easy to measure, rather than those that are most important. But as Albert Einstein once said, not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted, counts.
equally important educational goals — citizenship, character, appreciation of the arts and music, physical fitness and health, and knowledge of history, the sciences, and literature.
If you have high expectations, your students can succeed regardless of parents' economic circumstances. That is nonsense.
health insurance; children are less likely to get routine and preventive care that middle class children take for granted
If they can't see because they don't get glasses to correct vision difficulties, high expectations can't teach them to read.
In short, underemployment of parents is not only an economic crisis — it is an educational crisis. You cannot ignore it and be good educators.
To be good educators, you must step up your activity not only in the classroom, but as citizens. You must speak up in the public arena, challenging those policymakers who will accuse you only of making excuses when you speak the truth that children who are hungry, mobile, and stressed, cannot learn as easily as those who are comfortable.
Steve Ransom on 14 May 12An important read for anyone who truly wants to understand what's really important in education and the false reform strategies of our current (and past) administration.

I mentioned before I'd be switching the heads for Classics and Fall Of Cybertron Sideswipes. I did!
Pic 1 - The FOC head on the Classics body!
Pic 2 - the FOC head, with his eyes painted blue! (The piece of plastic that form the "eyes" is too short from the getgo, and hence that is why they don't reach the eye sockets in his face. Not because I shaved them down or that they wouldn't reach because I supeglued the head back together.)
Pic 3 - when you turn his windshield on his back, the head descends into his chest. It FITS! Whee!
There you go.

We often look at a celebrity and forget that there is a real person there, somewhere. We focus on their movies or their music and overlook the fact that, whenever they aren't filming or recording, they oftentimes live normal lives. Some of them raise families – take the kids to school, go grocery shopping etc. On the other hand, others choose to serve their country and, surprisingly, some of them are quite good at it.
1. Montel Williams
Montel Williams will be familiar to some as a popular talk show host, radio personality and occasional actor. However, before all of this, he was a decorated Navy Intelligence Officer.
Williams' military career started right after high school when he enrolled in the U.S. Marines Corps in 1974. Over there, he made quite an impression on his superior officers so he was transferred to the U.S. Naval Academy. He would go on to graduate and immediately enlist in the Navy as a cryptologic officer (which meant that he gathered and decoded classified intelligence). He held this position while he served in Guam for a year and a half before being transferred to the NSA.
For the next few years, he continued to serve in a supervisory role on various submarines. He offered counseling to his crew which is how he discovered he had a gift for public speaking (one which he would later on develop into a career). When he finally left the Navy, he achieved the rank of Lieutenant and was awarded three different Navy medals for his contributions.
2. Dr. Ruth
Definitely the most surprising entry on this list, Dr. Ruth is, arguably, the most famous sex therapist in the world who has been dispensing sex-related advice for the past three decades. However, way before this, when she was a teenager, she actually was a sniper (yes, really).
Her story begins on a tragic note – she lost her Jewish family in the Holocaust. She managed to survive because her mother sent her to Switzerland. From there she eventually emigrated to Israel where she joined a paramilitary organization called the Haganah (which later would become the core of the Israeli Defense Forces). It turned out that she was a crackshot who put everyone else around her to shame and her very small stature of 4 ft 7 in (1.40 m) was actually an advantage. So, naturally, she became a sniper.
Her military career only lasted until she was 20 when she was gravely wounded in 1948 during the Israeli War of Independence. A cannon ball exploded in the house where she was living with other students. Three students were killed, several others were injured including Ruth who almost lost her legs. She would eventually recuperate and move to Paris where she began studying psychology. Despite this, Dr. Ruth retains some of her old skills. According to her, she can still load a Sten automatic rifle while being blindfolded in under a minute.
3. Mel Brooks
Today we know him as the creator of some of our favorite parody movies of all time: Spaceballs, Young Frankenstein, Robin Hood: Men in Tights and Blazing Saddles, just to name a few. Before this he was a successful comedian and afterwards he even began staging successful Broadway shows. In other words, he's done it all when it comes to showbiz but, before that, he also served in World War II.
His military career started early on. He was drafted into the war in 1944 right out of high school. He was then sent to the Virginia Military Institute to receive special training and, soon enough, he was a corporal in the 1104 Engineer Combat Battalion.
As a combat engineer, Brooks specialized in detecting and defusing landmines. He retained this position until the end of the war, time during which Brooks was actively working on the frontlines and even took part in the Battle of the Bulge.
4. Rob Riggle
If the name doesn't ring a bell immediately, you might recognize Rob as an actor/comedian who appeared in some of the funniest movies of recent times including The Hangover, Talladega Nights, The Other Guys and 21/22 Jump Street. Before this, though, he acquired an extremely impressive 23-year career with the U.S. Marine Corps.
Riggle joined the Marines while he was in college in 1990. His initial intention was to become a Naval Aviator after he obtained his pilot's license, but he eventually quit flight school in order to focus on comedy. He still remained in the Marine Corps Reserves, however, and he eventually served in Liberia, Kosovo and Afghanistan.
He was still a reserve while he developed his comedy career until 2013 when he officially announced his retirement. By then, he had been active for 23 years and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel.
5. James Doohan
Younger readers might have problems remembering who James Doohan was while even older ones will still remember him just as Scotty from Star Trek. It's true, he played such an iconic role that it was almost impossible for anyone to think of him as anything else other than the Scottish engineer onboard the Starship Enterprise (which is made even weirder by the fact that Doohan was Canadian). However, his military career is definitely something worth mentioning.
Like Mel Brooks, James Doohan fought in World War II in the Royal Canadian Artillery. What makes Doohan so badass? The fact that his first ever combat mission was a little thing called D-Day. That's right, when the Allies invaded Normandy, Doohan was right there as a lieutenant in the 3rd Canadian Infantry Division.
It gets better. While taking part in D-Day, Doohan was tasked to guide his men through anti-tank mines and he still managed to take out two enemy snipers while doing so. However, in the process, Doohan himself was also shot…six times. Fortunately for him, most of the bullets hit him in the legs and hands. One of them went into his chest but the bullet was actually stopped by a cigarette case. The bullet in his hand was the most problematic because it cost him a finger. This is something that Doohan tried to hide later on as an actor, but you can still catch glimpses of his four-fingered hand if you are quick enough (if you see it and it has five fingers, it's a hand double).

I had been working with these chainsaws from 1982 to 2010. They were called simply EPCH-3 (ЭПЧ-3) then. I know that now they produce more advanced version with a gear. We had a rotor with a gear-wheel together, teeth were straight.
The saws are almost wear-free if you take care of them. We used them all week on three-shift basis, the only off day was Sunday.
There was around 50 degrees of frost in the winter, before working we brought a cross-cutter in a building, warmed, and then he cut timber very quickly (if you leave the saw in the frost, machine oil becomes like modeling clay; at those time we didn't have the oil for such temperatures). I think that the saw's motor has a high quality and, as it mentioned before, it is necessary to care for bearings and an impeller of airflow. If an operator knows his stuff, he will send the saw to repairs when he notices some faults like abnormal noise and motor heating. Bad operators sent it to repairs when it was useless: the motor was burnt, the bearings got stuck, the impeller was broken and workless.
As for a gear, we had it with the straight teeth. We had the oil and the gear effectively worked. We had converters then, an engine generator, I don't remember its brand, I didn't work with frequency converter (PSFC – 400) . Sometimes I had to work as a cross-cutter (for example, when the employee got cold or was drunk; or electrician was needed). The saw was very easy-to-use. I think that producers still didn't invented something instead.
The motor works under severe conditions and I think it is also irreplaceable. Now I have another profession. Three years ago we needed to find the saw on the Internet and I found the web-site of Alexey, we bought the saws and spare parts.
The motor is picked up to the saw by all characteristics. And a saw with a brush electric motor is pale in comparison with the Victar saw. We exploited it under such severe conditions which would be unbearable for another saw working 24 hours.
If the chain is filed and a tire is good, the saw cuts timber by itself, you only have time to get it.
Alexey, thank you for supporting the production of the saws, they don't have analogues. People cut timber for fire wood chips production for a boiler-house here. We have made an order Stimul LLC (Irkutsk city).
