Lets follow eachother on soundcloud.
I have two accounts. One for messing around really, electronics and everything. The other has tunes from around 2006 with the cover being the newest, not really a fan of them that much . folky stuff but might continue it again at some stage.
post your stuff below.
most of my stuff is just me messing about with poor quality iPhone recordings in Audacity. I uploaded some old song ideas I had but never went anywhere.
Some nice sounds in there.
Stick with them, just need to be pieced together properly.
Yeah, I'm not too great with that
I tend to work better with loops and samples, or with other musicians. I've been itching to do some solo stuff but I just don't know where to start.
I love it when these threads pop up
Mine keeps going through changes. The first track on there is my favorite, I like to think it sounds like Walls or something. I'm currently working on a live show but I've never performed, have no contacts and I'm not really a musician so I don't know how likely it is to happen.
I like the light static on the first track.
Not sure if it is intentional or not but, overall tunes sounding good. Second tune kind of sounds like a mouse on mars influence.
Thanks! Yeah it's intentional.
It's there because I started the track trying to write something that would sound like Chromatics but then it kind of came out a lot differently. I just decided to leave it in because later on in the song it seemed to make the synths sound distorted and stuff and when I took the static out it didn't sound the same haha.
I'm enjoying
The first track a lot. I like the combination of grittiness and etherealness...yeah, it's pretty gritty. Like a mouth full of bees.Antelope this'd this
Your stuff is really nice too actually. I feel like we share a lineup somewhere
- valenci this'd this
Cheers, I am pretty embarrassed of it usually.
I was an awful knob when I was writing those tunes.
Mines just me playing around
haven't added to it in ages
theres some really nice loops on this one I think
especially "Journey to Find the Ice King". I also like your track names. I struggle big time with track names.
Some of them are a bit throw-away but I've been meaning to spend more time with some tracks I have lying around. I have trouble making them go anywhere though
Here's a song I made for my band that isn't really a band...
One day we might band together though. One day. For One day.
All feedback welcome!skellywager and bokonon this'd this
This dead good
It sounds like the Unicorns in parts and is really nicely produced. Great job.
E-numbers sounds about right
I ate a whole load of donuts today, this might've pushed me over the edge...sounds really good.
That's cool
Like how Tubelord should have sounded with more synths, instead of how they actually sound with more synths.
this is so great!
Loving your lo-fi jams too
Keep it going :)
I like this
pretty deranged
Go on then
Add us and we'll add you x
I thinks thats how it works anyways
I like these
you need to record some proper demos though
they could be really good
Cheers buddy
yeah we're deffo going to work on the recordings for our next set of songs.
Followed all these to have a listen later!
Mine's got some electronic stuff on there, but more recently all I've been doing is acoustic covers of the red dwarf and nyan cat themes
which one
is the Nyan cat theme? I want to hear that.
a) I think it's 'what'
b) you really don't
(I did it for a friend who's obsessed with it and she never listened to it! the COW)
This is me
I have a few sets for different things/projects.
The The The Repeat Peters - I just uploaded a new track that I made at the weekend. Haven't done anything new myself for a while. I did it under my TTTRP guise, so it's in a set all on it's own. I also threw up the demo stuff I did when I came up with it a few years ago, in another set. Will probably be making a lot more on my own soon. fwiw.
Potemkjin Village / SwännS))) - the slightly unfunctioning band I am in with one other guy (Disser, natch) - psychedelic bassline noise & electronics
Wildlife - ambient sounds from around. I recorded a dawn chorus at 4am, that's pretty cool.
Syd Hauk - noise & vocals stuff me and my three year old do together.
Meatbreak - Most of an album of my Meatbreak stuff from years ago - psychedelic black trance noise with heavily effected drum machine, guitar & bass.
I am going to follow youze all now and listen to it, because I'm on my own in the office for a while yet.
- jonny_rat this'd this
thanks. yeah, I'm quite attached to it.
great stuff
getting dead c vibes!
now that's a compliment. which track was that? I just listened to your whole set, all awesome. great sampling, nice piano bits and I love how you swallow it all up with a detached derelict power station hum. yummy.
Little Pigeon
that was the first thing that came to mind anyway. love that aching, burnt out guitar tone.
Can't tell exactly why, but...
'One Straight Black Metal Riff Played To Fuck' was exactly what I've needed to listen to today.
Should be some new stuff up soon (hopefully), electronic-y vibe
pretty good a lot of this
the Heaven17 style voice really suits the tracks
- craigfable this'd this
from one meat to another
thanks for the comment, I appreciate it!Und_Gorgeous_Cars this'd this
just messing around with samples on audacity, hence them all being a bit messy, but it's all i've got
seriously loving this
adore the messiness too, can't stand it when stuff sounds overly 'midified'.bokonon this'd this
Loved that from the instant the beats came in in I'll Be Around.. and yeah, great messiness :)
REALLY nice
good good stuff
load of covers, then a couple of originals that have a bit of attention
mostly just edited things at the mo! Will add people in a bit!
this is the most fun re-edit one with extra bits
your latest one is really good
i like the beeps
yeah ok
just some shit and some stuff and that. just fucking around likeGoatmeatMF and useded this'd this

here are two things:
http://soundcloud.com/ddiamondd/ddiamondd-01 - my first ever mix, upbeat house/garage selection. kinda sloppy but also pretty fun
http://soundcloud.com/the-radiolab - my radio show's account, featuring full 2hr ATP shows as well as interviews with Jackmaster, Disclosure, Lone and Oneman
mix has tracks by Scuba, Huxley, xxxy, Clams Casino, Bicep, Felix, Lee Foss and Soul Clap amongst others
in a thread of noise/electronica that might not mean much but there we are
Solo piano/ambient-y stuff. Only just started it a couple of days ago as it happens...
Essentially me mucking around on Ableton Live, and a couple of remixes for the hell of it
this is me and my sister (she sings)
we're not that great - just mucking around really but theres a couple of songs and a remix on there
volume levels vary wildly between tracks
I'm a sucka for this kind of stuff, interesting mix of styles too, the drums in I Beat Him were an unexpected revelation :)
This is mine:
I write weird pop songs about how awful everything is. Currently working on my second full-length, and would like to put a band together, so get in touch if you like what I'm doing and live in/near Kent!
I like this
Shame I live 260 miles north of Tenterden, Kent :(
Pop rap murder indie poetry synth core. Been recording for the last six months. I'm aiming to record 100 songs in a year, and then, well, I'm not sure. Probably record some more. I've done about 33, so I'm a bit behind schedule.glenistm this'd this
That's nice to hear!
Great idea
I'll follow all of you. Always a pleasure to support fellow disers. I'm hearing some awesome stuff as well.
My soon to be dead proper band
Solo stuff from this year's FAWM - http://soundcloud.com/crabb/sets/fawm-2012
Cool thread, will listen through now...
er i'm working on stuff but have a few old fahey covers up..
not the best recordings ever..anyway have a listen and slay me!
You can cover John Fahey.
Well done sir, well done indeed. I don't have the patience for learning anything so complicated. I gave John Renbourn- The Pelican a try not too long ago, but just didn't have the time to get past the intro. Can you cover Hawaiian two step?
Love John Fahey!
Great job.Wasted_Opportunity this'd this

I have a bit of a problem finishing stuff of late but I'm sure that's only temporary
there's a bunch of downloadable stuff here btw if you're interestedskellywager and craigfable this'd this
ripped from a tape made ~25 years ago:
background story: the bbc used to do some sort of annual song for christmas thingumy. something to do with goinglive, maybe. i suggested we enter. there was a teacher who was into pink floyd and a bit of a muso with a mate with a recording studio. and this is the result. the competition mysteriously didn't end up taking place (and i don't think they've done it since). pretty sure they were blown away by it and knew it wouldn't be fair to pit anyone against us.craigfable this'd this

Here's mine...
Electronic, spacey stuff. More (and better) to come soon...
Sure I'll follow you all coz I'm a nice guy right

Some great stuff on this thread
Love home doodlings.
Here is some produce from my cellar: http://soundcloud.com/tmothy
If anyone wants to tell me what they think
I would like that.
hey, shatner!
Uploaded my first 'tune' this evening then saw this thread! electronic/loops/sub-fuck buttons bullshit
- Cementimental this'd this
Good stuff, fuck buttons is a good thing to aspire to. my first tune was me messing with Fuck Buttons.
It's bit crap, but it's loud and abrasive.
And now for something shit.
That's me on nanostudio.wildheron this'd this
Not sure if you're fishing for compliments here
but that's definitely not shit mate. How you finding nanostudio anyway?
thanks for the fahey cover comment!
skellywager - you do have to really kind of dedicate yourself to learning pieces like that....i tend to have 3 diff pieces on the go to alternate practising otherwise you'd go mad:) it does get easier but never..easy.. as for Hawaiian 2 step might have a go. Not sure my missus would encourage me.
Yeah I find it the same.
Whenever I try anything overcomplicated I lose the touch.Sometimes I get too technical with the tune and lose the feel and even sometimes the timing. I have to get back into playing properly again soon. Seen John Renbourn with just 3 other people, he played for nearly 3 hours stopping to do a raffle inbetween. I didn't win the live DVD :( I was on my own and he was sitting beside me drinking for a while and because it was so quiet I couldn't speak to him.
i have written a song for a girl called Rose aka Keel Her
but she hasn't recorded it yet
when she does i'll make my own profile too but for now follow the Keel Her profile cos it'll defo end up on there
I use mine for misc one-off experiments, live sets, jokes and find from the archives

A'hoi hoi...
Here we go.
This me fooling around...
I don't know how to play any instruments so I have to rely on samples. I have started to learn piano so that I can learn notes. I have recently started experimenting with sounds recorded at home. But none of that stuff is up yet.
Great idea for a thread, BTW!
I can heartily recommend this
Great stuff!
Nice idead

Where did we play together?
Will have a listen to your sounds (and everyone else's...) when I'm out of work...

Hope you guys are doing okay!
Ah cool!
Yeah doing good thanks!
We just recorded our album with Ali.
All sounding really good I think!

I will be listening and commenting on all those I have followed.
Last of the Summer wine remix?
It all started with making a piece of audio to go over a stag do video (bottom of page) Its pretty bizarre.

Music that you can dance to
Remix of DiS faves Hey Sholay out soon also, so keep ears peeled
Some varied stuff up there; pop, electro, etc.
It's all a bit of laugh really!
Mute Branches
Been making music influenced largely by post-rock, IDM, 'lo-fi' (as well as whatever I'm listening to most at the time) since being but a youngling.
I'm gradually improving (I aim to check out all of these above me too, when I'm not so knackered)
Really like this
Looking forward to checking out the rest of the stuff on your page I haven't listened to yet!
Just listening to some of your stuff right now, which I'm enjoying. Very energetic and glitchy!
It's Great to finally have some people listening to my stuff on Soundcloud!
I'm slowly working my way through the thread and I'm trying to comment on everything as I go.
hopefully I speak for everyone in this thread
when I say this week has been the most encouraging week of my Soundcloud life for a while, if not ever. And I have been listening to a whole load of cool mental musics with loads still to play.
Thanks everyone!Antelope, oldshitnewshit, Und_Gorgeous_Cars, mute-branches, jonny_rat, fuck_this_band, Yesiamaduck, glenistm, mug_mug_mug, UntitledFruitCo, and craigfable this'd this
Also enjoying this greatly
oh and here's mine: http://soundcloud.com/atomjar
A mixture of stuff here, including a cycle of >3 min songs starting with the letter 'V'. 95% of the hits I get are for the Bjork cover version though... (fun to do, but hardly the best thing I've done). All recorded on a cheap mic, and edited on audacity.
didn't know of Fryars until now...
Late response
Just a few W.I.P's up there. Feedback would be much appreciated though as I really think I'm wasting my time trying to develop this sound I have in my head, into something physical like a song. Agh.
Most of you make absolutely smashing music by the way. Props.
I'm currently ill & have tomorrow off
I'm going to spend the whole day evaluating you fuckers
this thread has been a major success for me
had 46 plays for a song i only put up yesterday. also, i have heard some great music!

We're the most unloved band in Liverpool... maybe folks from other parts will enjoy more.
I'm going to befriend a bunch of the above pages

All comments and feedback - good an bad most welcome!
Great to connect with fellow Soundclouders :)
I have a few soundcloud accounts with our latest releases - mainly instrumentals but some tracks are also on there...
Would love to get feedback from fellow musicians and producers:) I always reciprocate, so lets connect!
I found an antique harmonium for £100 in a shop down the road from me.
And since then I have been writing music for it (mixing in synth sounds as well). In case you don't know what a harmonium is, it's a type of organ, popular in the Victorian era, where you make the sound by using your feet to pump air through it with a bellows. I love this instrument. There's two tracks I wrote with it on the page below:
If any of you have a 19th Century Harmonium itch that needs to be scratched, you might like it.craigfable, GoatmeatMF, Und_Gorgeous_Cars, and RobinPlaysChords this'd this
stupid phone!!!
This is truly wonderful - is what I actually wrote. Love it! You can really play too. The Caretaker will be calling to pop and crackle you up in no time.
Just listening to 'Red Brick Tower' now
Lives up to the expectations I built up while reading your synopsis above; by which I mean, this is hella ace.
Thanks, GoatmeatMF, mute-branches!
I love this instrument so much I'm writing a whole album for it. Should be ready within a couple of months.
do you know what is strange?
In my Soundcloud activity queue you appear next to How To Dress Well's new track 'Ocean Floor For Everything'.
just one of the cute little quirks of the universe.oceanfloor this'd this
It's actually pretty cool
And well produced!
When I heard the first track
It was brimming with good ideas - If I lived in the UK, would certainly jam with you.
I was thinking a New Order-esque crossover thing since I'm pretty rock oriented but I can only dream I'll find someone like that over here.
Then I realised that 'Someone, Somewhere' is a Simple Minds song then I did a sadface in real life.

I listened to both your sets last night, very loud. Got totally lost and absorbed in it. awesome stuff.
have a listen to the haunted ballroom, think thats my favourite at the moment. also you can download the ambient album for free from bandcamp if you're interested.
thanks to the relatively massive surge of followers
i absolutely love this thread, some such good stuff in here.
i made a set just to collect my stuff in a workable order:

Great Idea
I've really enjoyed the last week.. I've heard some great music, met and chatted to like-minded people AND had some nice things said about my music..
this is why i love the internet
here's my two cents: http://soundcloud.com/diveuk/the-shakes
new song!
feedback most welcome. please listen with headphones/earphones! :)
Doing new songs yeah?
http://soundcloud.com/skellywager/bilimbo (sampled some african and indian music)
http://soundcloud.com/skellywager/today-i-learned (My attempt at some cloud hip-hop, or whatever it is called)
Hopefully have two new songs tomorrow, harddrive crashed and I lost a lot of stuff.
My band
We Hear Owls.
I love these threads, they make DiS feel like a proper community..
Here's me, uploaded especially for the occasion:
the drone sounds are cassette loops, and I got my housemate to record some drums in his bedroom.
Nice, did you just cut the tape so it doesn't loop around the reel but still feeds over the head.
Been meaning to do this for ages. Nice sound though, keep it up.
Thanks man!
for the loops I just recorded some drones onto tape, then cut sections out, and reattached them like this http://www.instructables.com/id/Audio-Cassette-Loop/
Its a bit fiddly but quite fun, especially if you mess with the tape player/recorder as well.
Second piece of nice lo-fi I've heard from this thread today
Should probably mention that I love your username too!
:) thanks!
a fellow Modest Mouse fan I take it? I'm hoping to rip off their sound a lot more in the future..
One of the first bands I got completely obsessed with, 'Styrofoam Boots / It's All Nice On Ice, Alright' is one of my favourite things they ever did as wellstyrofoamboots this'd this
I'm glad this thread is still going strong.
I've got some catching up to do tomorrow morning when I'm not getting grief off the missus for sitting on the computer.
I've got a new one which I wasn't going to put this up but I'm pretty desperate for some feedback.
For the people that might have missed it
Some lovely stuff in this. Post your best.
Some good stuff.
I enjoyed especially Elevate by Atrium. Cheers.
Because SunnO)))day is coming
Me and my boy were asked to support SunnO))) at their Brighton show. an unbelievable offer that we couldn't accept for various reasons. Mostly revolving around the fact that he's only 3! We recorded a version of the kind of thing we would have done had we been able to do the show, and this is it:
Going to do an even bigger one over the weekend. Go on, give him a comment, he's only little. haha.
what i fantastic idea
Soundcloud thread; i'm in!
haven't uploaded anything for ages
so just threw up some work in progress stuff
probably shit
doesn't really get good until 4 minutes in
unless you're playing it REALLY loud of course
cheers man
I've got so much stuff that's lying around in this state of unfinished that I really need to get my arse in gear and do it justice... like LOADS of it
thanks for the encouragement :)
Might as well. Throw a proper package together
and I'll hook you up with some album art if you're interested.
sounds interesting
got an art link?
This is absolutely epic
real cowbells, claps, claves and shakers give it a nice sloppy groove I think
minimal on the kick too
I have a whole cut up gospel choir & a lead vocal to go on it too but my computer can't handle all the tracks so I have to nail an arrangement & bounce it before I can put all that on
that tends to be my sticking point
I was going to say..
The percussion feels really organic and human, it's really nice. The whole thing sounds lovely through my headphones
put 3 other 'tunes' up too
the 3d soundstage is something I've been working on - depth & width
one more to take me to my soundcloud time limit
I have an AWESOME topline for this but I'm struggling with lyrics - everything is sounding cheesy and corny. It's a 'oh, imagine the joy if you and me got together' kind of thing. I guess the groove doesn't really lend itself to deep political comment. Anyone got any alternative suggestions?
also, this is kind of backwards - the big straight house bit that makes up the 2nd part should be the build up with it dropping into the superfunk bassline stuff
Do you listen to Mungolian Jetset? You should. New album is coming out soon too.
New song: http://www.mediafire.com/?aq07m79fb0pi3f0
nope, never heard of 'em - will check these out later
I've done a couple more recently
I went looking for lounge music samples and covered them in vinyl hiss and added some bass and some lazy beats, I'm quite proud of the way they came out.
so glad this thread is still going!
so much good music here, and a fair amount of soundcloud activity!
Really like your two tracks!
Remind me of the more hushed and exploratory parts of the Everything Everything album. Def. look forward to whatever else you upload
thanks a lot.
just uploaded a new track. hope you enjoy it.
Hai DiS
Set one is experimental noises from a few years back. Set two is superrrr rough, super lofi demos with proper instruments (only really one there to send to a friend), set three is a band ep from a few years ago.
I feel a bit late to the party.
But I'll whack mine into the pile.
My personal one is just cut up songs as my Ableton spazzes out whenever I try to use synths. I haven't updated it in a while but have a few songs in the pipeline. I did a few mixes, but they took up all my space so I took them down. The 65 remix is pretty badly mixed, but you get the general idea...
Proem is me and my housemate. Deep housey garage stuff, or that was the plan anyway. This will be updated more as we've written more tunes, but just not uploaded them.
Loving everything I've heard so far. Giggling along to the Last of the Summer Wine remix. Excellent stuff.
Here's mine
Lo-fi/ambienty/drone stuff. Any comments appreciated
I can when it isnt 4.43am!
Here's mine while I start trawlin'
a put a couple of things up on my soundcloud
a chillsynth cover of Bowie's Modern Love
and the lead track of the release I've been jagging here
which is here
never actually got around to following anyone from this thread - gonna try and go through it today
i don't think i ended up following anyone either
did listen to some tho. Talent bunch of lads those disseres
is it all lads?
it's mostly lads in here isn't it?
where are the ladies at?
Not This.
Not This.
I've followed everyone in this thread
I don't think I missed anyone anyway
Haven't had time to listen to everything but I've been working my way through - loads of awesome stuff
More than enough material to make a great podcast out of once a month for a while. Might try and do that - pick my 10 favourite tunes and put them together in a radio show type format.
Is that something that people would be interested in?oldshitnewshit, GoatmeatMF, and Mick_Squalor this'd this

I'd have to say
The Best of the Beatlesethricdouble this'd this
i used to pretend to not be bothered about/like the Beatles.
then i had a bit of time of work one summer and listened to all of their albums, one per day. fucking staggering stuff, really (bar Yellow Sumbarine). obviously i knew of most of their popular songs already, but stuff like the early covers (Baby It's You, Anna, Kansas City), and some of their earlier songs (All I've Got To Do, Any Time At All, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, I've Just Seen a Face) are very bit as good, and you can get lost in records like Sgt Pepper or the white album - it's really magical stuff.
that said, i don't think you HAVE to listen to them. i don't know if any band is absolutely must-hear, and they're not the absolute cornerstone of music as some might claim. i can see why music of that time or style mightn't appeal to everyone, or why some might be put off by the hype, but you should judge artists on the songs really.
for me, the fact that there's just so much there still excites me greatly. bar a few of the most popular songs, every time i listen to one of their records it feels like the first time. the depth to their back catalogue is quite remarkable. there are all sorts of styles of song, and you can hear them progress as songwriters throughout the records.
no point hating, really. not possible to think they're anything less than an utterly great band. not possible to think they're boring or dull. if it's not to someone's tastes, that's fine, but the quality of the songwriting speaks for itself, and i think there's probably something in there for everyone.pichaelmarker, incandenza_, TheBeautifulOnes_, and Antelope this'd this

but have never been a huge fan, that statement alone causes a lot of people I know to grimace.
* All You Need Is The First Disc of the 1967-1970 Compilation
Paul is dead
dead angry when he imagines people that don't like The Beatles.
MARLON: there are a lot of good bands
ROSCOE: yes that's true Roscoe but remember that the best band is the Beatles
MARLON: what is this
ROSCOE: Th Beatles, basically out of all the bands ever they are the best band and no one is allowed to have a different opinion because old people have kept saying it has to be taken as fact
MARLON: but what if I like other bands more
ROSCOE: then you are wrong and remember those bands wouldnt exist if it wasnt for the Beatles like if I went back in time and killed Paul McCartney, punched John Lennon until he was paralysed from the left eyeball down, introduced George Harrison to the exciting and lucrative world of recruitment consultancy, and taught Ringo Starr how to play the drums (har har) all the bands now wouldntot exist at all because The Beatles are the best
MARLON: but surely Roscoe then by that logic everyone in the world should like cavemen smacking rocks and masturbating with hollowed out pterodactyl eggs because those sounds led to music so surely they should be considered the greatest band ever by that logic. And don't say just cause they were willing to experiment, cause loads of bands like Talk Talk, Thom Yorke and the Radio Heads, and Mili Vanili did that as well
ROSCOE: no Marlon you are wrong
FRUSTRATED READER: fudging hell you folks, YOUR MEANT TO DO
E N D (pt. III)
soon. Stop it with this
ROSCOE AND MARLON: it is NON CANON.
ROSCOE: that is why I can stay in character while having an obviously slightly bullshit opinion about how the Beatles deserve to be respected above all other musicians until the end of time
MUTE-BRANCHES: Yes. I am a non-canon Mute Branches but don't you worry I know what I'm doing with all this businessdead_fred, Loui_Tacceh, and Antelope this'd this
that's ferr nuff
I think some people who say that just mean they've heard too much Hey Jude etc but there are some gr8 songs that are on the albums & haven't been heard on everything ever too
The Beatles
That`s those scouse fellas that stole that time machine and ripped off Oasis, isn`t it? The rotters.
The Beatles are weird
I find them boring AND annoying.
Used to be a huge fan, especially in first year of uni
now I can't be fucked any more. They remind me of crusty old people who talk about the good old days. I know all their albums inside out but I'll only ever stick on Abbey Road or Magical Mystery Tour at the moment.
They are just four annoying Scousers who went around doing stuff.Innit.
Here come all the try-hards
via high-horse, we knew they were coming though because you can sense the smugness from a mile away
"They're shit"
(c) Grockle c2005
A lot of people don't like rock music.
And also you are an idiot.
The Beatles
The rock band.

Another ride recap of our weekly Wednesday night group ride from headquarters, as written by our very own Randy Jones (in case you forgot, the goal is always to ride the 40, sometimes 30, mile route with an average speed of 20 MPH):
While a pack of riders skinsuited up for the local time trial, a small group of Wednesday warriors headed out under overcast skies and chilly sub 60 temperatures. McCarter was the first to admit that if he wasn't warm in ten minutes he'd call a SAG wagon for a pick up and find the closest watering hole serving Guinness and bangers and mash. Jones liked that idea and almost made the call at the 2 minute mark, but decided that spinning the legs at 113 rpms would be a better warming agent than pub fare. The brisk pace worked, and by the time Swan took the lead on Lamont Norwood, jerseys were unzipped, arm warmers rolled down, and the G-man was getting spit out the back. McCarter offered to throw Collester into his little red wagon and pull him through to the B-ride cut off, but Collester refused and vanished into the countryside.
With the group down to 5 riders in less than 4 miles, we knew that a 20 MPH average would be tough to keep without some real leg work on the pulls. Tommy V, needing to redeem himself after last week's failed attack, shot to the front and maintained a strong pace all the way to Frosty's. Maybe he caught a whiff of stale NutterButters, or maybe he just wanted some alone time to think about that Swedish minx he met back in high school while visiting Niagara Falls, but for whatever reason he bid the group farewell at the next turn, leaving the Four Horseman to pile drive the pavement for the next 23 miles.
Coming into the wind-up stretch before the county line, McCarter backed off the pace and sent an alpha male snarl at the pack, letting us all know that any attempt to make an attack would be futile against his superior sprinting skills. Jones, playing the roll of happy-go-lucky puppy, plodded along at the back with Tony D, secretly planning to break things wide open at the last moment possible. Swan must have been thinking the same, and at 4 meters out, the entire group pounced. The pace was furious–topping out at 42 MPH–and had it not been for a farmer snapping photos of what he believed to be Martian invaders riding hovercraft, we wouldn't have had proof of the first ever 4 man tie for the sprint win (Eds. note: the last sentence is patently untrue, but we left it in for entertainment value). Tony D was most elated with the co-win, but more spent than the money of a sorority girl's daddy. He took the short route home at the crossroads, leaving McCarter, Jones, and Swan to fight out the last 17 miles.
Swan pulled the full stretch between the OGCHR and 54, and his pace left Jones a bit winded as he tried to stay strong up the false flat leading up to Snow Camp proper. McCarter dropped in late and deep–like Gerry Lopez at Pipeline—but pulled strong out of the barrel leading into the prologue before the hill sprint. As we rounded onto Damascus, McCarter threw out the question, "do ya'll want to try to keep 20 or just battle it out for the sprint?" Swan gave the most obvious answer, "Both!" McCarter and Jones sensed the extra enthusiasm in Swan's words and soon learned why. At the rise leading up to Meacham, Swan dipped a finger into the Blackberry jam hidden under his top tube and made the first attack. It was a strong effort, and Jones and McCarter both thought the game was over. But Swan was disoriented from the sugar high and completely missed the right turn onto Meacham. Jones and McCarter saw their opportunity and took it. Half way up the hill, Jones pulled to the front, with McCarter tight on his wheel. Up ahead, Collester materialized from the brambles and Jones used him as rabbit to chase down. McCarter, knowing that Jones would look right and give the G-man a jab, broke hard for the lead, leaving Jones to fight hard to catch his wheel. At the last meter, McCarter literally exploded—his jersey flew open, his helmet straps shredded, his legs caught fire—and Jones took the victory.
Learning that they had indeed averaged 20 for the ride, McCarter, Swan, Jones, and Collester soft-pedaled for the rest of the ride. Not much was spoken on the road home, but if I had to guess what was on our minds it would have been all smiles!

Proactive care saves lives of seniors, study finds
Can a patient-centered, care management program utilizing nurse care managers and interdisciplinary teams, supported by electronic tracking and care coordination systems reduce the rate of deaths and hospitalizations among chronically ill older adults? The answer – based on a three-year study involving more than 3,400 chronically ill seniors led by Oregon Health & Science University researcher David A. Dorr, M.D. – appears to be "yes."
The study – described in the December 2008 Journal of the American Geriatrics Society – has broad implications for how the care of the more than 130 million Americans with chronic illnesses, two thirds of whom are 65 or older, is managed.
"This study underscores the enormous societal costs of a health care infrastructure that does not adequately support the interdisciplinary services and care coordination needed to prevent adverse outcomes for older adults with multiple chronic illnesses," said Dorr, the study's lead investigator and an assistant professor of medical informatics and clinical epidemiology at OHSU.
"Patients coping with two chronic health conditions are eight times as likely to die within a year as peers with one such illness, " said Dorr. "Someone with three or more chronic illnesses has 40 times higher odds of being hospitalized than a person with a single chronic illness and 91 times higher odds than someone with no such illness. We also know that chronic conditions account for 83 percent of all healthcare spending and that the majority of cost increases in Medicare spending are due to patients with five or more chronic illnesses."
The study – conducted between January 1, 2002 and June 30, 2005 at 13 primary care clinics at Intermountain Healthcare, a large not-for-profit integrated health care system in Utah – found that deaths among the 1,144 patients in the "intervention" group receiving optimum care, called Care Management Plus (CMP), were significantly lower in the first and second years than among the 2,288 patients in the control group whose members received the usual care.
Seven Intermountain clinics served the CMP patients and six the control group patients. Each CMP patient was matched with two control patients based on age, hospitalization records, comorbidity scores, gender, and specific chronic illnesses. The average age of all patients was 76. Three quarters of them had two or more chronic illnesses. Just over 64 percent were females.
In all, 6.5 percent of CMP patients died in the first year of enrollment versus 9.2 percent of control patients; 13.1 percent of CMP patients and 16.6 percent of controls died in the second year. CMP was a particular benefit for patients with diabetes – who constituted 48.7 percent of all patients in the study and had a significantly higher number of comorbidities. Their mortality rate at one year was 6.2 percent vs. 10.6 percent for controls; at two years it was 12.9 percent vs. 18.2 percent.
Hospitalizations were only slightly lower overall for CMP patients than for controls, but for diabetes patients in the CMP group they were significantly lower – 21.2 percent versus 25.7 percent for controls at one year and 30.5 percent versus 39.2 percent for controls at two years.
Intermountain Healthcare has a long history of innovative use of computers in improving healthcare. At the CMP clinics, computer tools were combined with a registered nurse who received extra training. Physicians referred patients with complex conditions to the nurse care manager who completed a patient assessment focused on self-efficacy, knowledge, readiness to change and patient-directed goal setting. The care manager then created with the patient a detailed care plan supported by specialized computer tools, including structured protocols and guidelines for various conditions and diseases, a care management tracking (CMT) database and detailed electronic patient worksheet. The care manager suggested medication changes or other treatments when indicated, helping physicians respond to patients' needs more quickly and efficiently. The tools helped organize and prioritize the teams' work.
"Family practice and internal medicine physicians are drowning in the huge number of things to consider for their patients, especially those with multiple conditions and medications," said Cherie P. Brunker, M.D., co-principal investigator and Geriatrics Chief, Intermountain LDS Hospital and assistant professor of geriatric medicine, University of Utah Center on Aging. "Computer tools and a specially trained care manager can make all the difference."
"It is clear," Dorr concluded, "that to provide the kind of high quality and efficient coordination of care tracked in this study across the nation's health care system will require the redesign of primary care as well as reform of the payment system and reinforcement from policymakers, but it would be an investment in the future health of the chronically ill patient population."

Lindsay Lohan's Character Witnesses Include the Worst 'Spiritual Advisor' in the History of Ever
Lindsay Lohan is pulling out all the ridiculous stops to avoid jail after her probation was revoked, including having her so-called "spiritual advisor" write a letter on her behalf to Commissioner Jane Godfrey (the acting judge).
Because nothing says "good character witness" like someone who trusts horoscopes and tea leaves.
We imagine the letter goes a little something like this:
Dear Ms. Gofrey,
Kindly excuse Ms. Lohan from jail as Jupiter is rising. I have foreseen in the cards that she will be much better behaved from now on. Promise.
Hugs and kisses,
Your Friendly Local Spiritual Advisor to the Stars
A source claims that LiLo is having several close family and friends provide letters to prove that jail time is just not right for her, and she thinks the spiritual advisor in particular will be helpful because he's been guiding her since 2008 and knows how counseling can help. Especially since she's lied to the police, gotten in bar fights, become a groupie and gone broke under his watch.
A hearing is scheduled for Jan. 25, where Lindsay will likely once again avoid jail. Because Hollywood.

Forever is composed of nows. ~ Emily Dickinson
The weather cooperated this weekend so we hit our favorite hiking spot again. The weather canceled a couple of our walks during the week so the dogs were in the mood to run.
At one point Sadie wandered off the trail and fell behind. I figured this was the perfect time to get a great shot of her running to catch up. She had a surprise for me, though.
She brought me a dead bird. Yuck!! (She did drop it as soon as I told her to drop it.)
Luka proved that last week's behavior was not a fluke. He ran ahead on the trail but always waited for me to catch up.
When I stopped walking he came back to get me.
This week I noticed that Sadie waited for me whenever there was a trail junction.
Luka just picked a trail and ran ahead (and was often wrong about which way we were going), but Sadie waited for me to lead the way.
Once I showed the way the dogs went ahead of me.
As always, the highlight of the day was the water.
Despite the wonky weather (fog to sun to clouds back to sun back to clouds) it was another spectacular day (can you spot Luka in this picture?).
Finally, I don't know when the Sleeping Olympics begin but the training around here is intense.

Council news
18 July 2013
The IOP's Council met on 18 July at the offices of IOP Publishing in Bristol.
Once again, property issues were high on the agenda, and members were updated on progress with selling the existing leases at 76 to 80 Portland Place in central London. Council also heard that good progress was being made by delegated officers in the search for a new home for the Institute. It is hoped that the IOP will be in a position to make a formal announcement in October on the future HQ building.
As part of a wide-ranging review of staff pay and benefits currently underway, Council discussed in some detail issues relating to the Institute's pension provision. A small group of senior officers was delegated to finalise these arrangements with support from the executive team.
Council reviewed work carried out so far by a sub-group of trustees to consider a range of planning scenarios for the next five years in light of the uncertainty about medium-term income. A framework for prioritising activities and projects has also been developed that will allow greater flexibility and resilience in responding to in-year changes in priorities and income. The planning assumptions were agreed, with further work to review individual projects to be completed by the senior officers and vice-presidents.
A proposal to establish further new branches outside the UK and Ireland, including one in Mumbai, was approved. An update to the policy submission process, which will improve the process by which the Institute responds to consultations, was also approved.

Ring In The New and Spruce Up The Old!
It's a New Year and a great time to refresh your space, but you don't have to start from scratch! Remixing old items with fresh finds can give your home a new look with unique personality. From a bench that looks hand-knit to a repurposed shower curtain art project, Target has quick fixes that will boost your decor without requiring a complete makeover.
Mixing old and new isn't taboo. Choose new pieces wisely and you'll be surprised how they accentuate beloved older items and breathe new energy into a room. Select new items based on existing textures, colorways, and patterns in a room and you're sure to create a space that is both unique and decoratively harmonious. Here are some picks from Target that will happily mesh with more well-worn items:
This Woven Accent Bench adds character and texture to a space. If you have a folksy piece in your space, such as a worn woven blanket or worn wooden antiques, this piece will help bring it out and create a new congruity within the room.
Look for existing patterns around your space and find pieces that match or complement them. The Criss Cross Fleece Rug, for example, would look great next to a decorative fireplace screen or in a room with leaded glass windows.
Small accents can make a big difference in a room and are an easy addition. Throws are one of our favorite design boosters because of their versatility; they can update almost any seating or bedding area. The Yellow Multi Print Throw looks cozily worn-in, so it will blend nicely with older items in your space.
Maybe your room is dull on form--it's lacking interesting shapes and unique focal points. If so, it's a great time to look for new, vintage-inspired pieces featuring funky forms or fun motifs that will add an eclectic feel to your space. The Cockatiel Base Lamp is not subtle, but it is fun! Luckily it comes in a neutral white, so it will match any color scheme while adding a touch of whimsy to your room.
Here's a quick fix for a tired room, from blogger Anne Sage of The City Sage. Make an oversized art piece for your space by stretching a curtain over a frame and stapling it to the back. It's a great way to add bold patterns and new colors to a room that is otherwise a little dull. Target has many options to match various decor styles, including the Farrah Fretwork Window Panel.
For more great finds and design inspiration, browse the Winter 2013 Target Home Catalog.

Got it. We watched "Law and Order." But where in reading a suspect his Miranda Rights does it mention you will also be appointed some nice threads to wear at your trial, too?
If you're indigent in Los Angeles County and need a public defender, it doesn't make a difference if you're a 44-long, 38-short, or size 7, there are some quality, slightly used suits, shirts, and dresses waiting for you in a clothes closet at your local Los Angeles County Public Defender's Office.
They've been dry cleaned and donated by many of the 708 attorneys who work for the oldest Public Defender's Office in the country — opened for business in 1914 to make sure poor people get the same shot at a fair trial as people with the money to hire a private defense attorney.
Lady Justice may be blind, but jurors aren't.
"If you're wearing jailhouse blues when you walk into that courtroom, it marks you," says Alan Simon, a retired public defender. "Presumed innocent takes a hit."
The Public Defender's Office is not trying to put "lipstick on a pig" here — but they would like first impressions of their clients to be at least neutral in the eyes of the jury.
That's why we got rid of shackles in the courtroom, right? Slightly prejudicial.
"I've had jurors tell me after a trial they weren't sure who the attorney was when they first saw us in the courtroom together wearing suits," says deputy public defender Karl Fenske, who runs the clothes closet for the busy downtown LA office.
"That's what we want — our clients to look like a normal person off the street, like the jurors themselves."
Every month these legal civil servants pass the hat to pay the dry-cleaning bills for the clothes they've already given off their backs so their clients don't walk into court dressed in jailhouse blues that scream "guilty."
"It's not like our clients have any 'Sunday best' clothing to wear into court," Fenske says. "It's up to each attorney in our office to make sure the presumption of innocence doesn't go flying out the window."
Before trial, the public defender assigned the case goes to the clothes closet to pick out a suit or dress that fits their client, and it's brought to the court anteroom by the court bailiff who searches through it.
"Sometimes I'll walk in the backroom to talk to my client before trial starts, and there's the bailiff tying his tie. It can be pretty poignant at times. Most of these people have never worn a tie, much less a nice suit.
"It's a very dehumanizing system as it is," Fenske says. "Nice clothes help counter that a little."
After the trial is over — win or lose — it's up to each public defender to get the suit or dress dry cleaned, and returned to the clothes closet for the next 44-long, 38-short, or size 7 going to trial.
There are times, though, where that is not always possible. Clients have been known after a "not guilty" verdict to process out and leave before the public defender can ask for his suit back.
"They like the suit so much they keep it," Fenske laughs. "Hey, if it helps move their lives in a better direction, keep it."
Over at the Van Nuys office — one of 39 public defender locations in L.A. County — head deputy Jenny Brown has passed the hat around the office to get the limited supply of women's dresses on hand dry cleaned for future female clients.
"Women are tougher to fit than men, and we're always looking for women's clothing donations," says the veteran public defender.
That's the thing about their job. Many of the attorneys in the Public Defender's Office, much like the District Attorney's Office, are veterans of 15, 20, 25 years. They could have left years ago for higher-paying jobs in the private sector, but they've stayed.
Call it what you want — a sense of duty, public service, whatever. They stayed. They didn't go for the big bucks. I respect that.
Maybe part of the answer why can be found in the clothes closet, and the hat they drop $10 in every month to help pay the dry-cleaning bill on their old suits and dresses now being worn in courthouses all over L.A. County by people who can't afford to hire an attorney.
Because poor people deserve a fair trial, too.

As far as I'm aware, there are no documented examples of the art glass similar to those in the image that Bernard used. However, on reflection I believe I have seen three examples that, at the time, I had no idea who they were by and are no longer traceable. ...
I can't help wondering whether Elwell bought up their unsold stock and sold it with Elwell labels!

"Fear Itself" (KOB-4 9.m.) Like all anthology series, this horror show has had its ups and downs. Here's hoping tonight's episode--about a cop trapped in a precinct house with a cannibal--is one of the ups. After all, it's directed by fan fave Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator, From Beyond).
"Bullshit!" (Showtime 8 p.m.) NASA? You guys are gonna call bullshit on NASA? I mean, sure, our country has sunk an awful lot into the space program while netting some occasionally nebulous benefits. But aren't there a few sleazier scam artists on the planet you could debunk first? 'Cause I'm pretty sure Neil Armstrong can still kick your ass.
See above.
A Gunfighter's Pledge (Hallmark 7 p.m.) A lawman tries to help a widow when a ruthless businessman wants to sell her farm. ... For this Luke Perry gave up a slot on the new "90210"?
"I Love Money" (VH1 7 p.m.) In VH1's new reality series/game show, former "contestants" on "Flavor of Love," "I Love New York" and "Rock of Love" live in a house with a lot of cameras (natch) and stab each other in the back to win money. ... Seriously, VH1, you had people eating pig penises to land a date with Tila Tequila--what have you got left to prove about the wretchedness of the human condition?
"Art of Failure: Chuck Connelly Not For Sale" (HBO 10 p.m.) Along with Julian Schnabel and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Chuck Connelly was one of the rising stars of the '80s art world. Some 20 years later, however, Schnabel and Basquiat are legends and Connelly is alienated from every collector and gallery owner he ever worked with. He was even the inspiration for the nasty artist played by Nick Nolte in Martin Scorsese's segment of New York Stories. Today, Connelly sits on a stockpile of 3,000 paintings he refuses to sell. So what do you have to do to piss off snooty New Yorkers willing to spend millions of dollars on jars of urine? Find out in this probing documentary, six years in the making.
"Celebrity Family Feud" (KOB-4 7 p.m.) Remember last week when I declared this show a new work of genius? Tonight, further proof: I give you the cast of "The Office" versus the "American Gladiators." Gee, I wonder who'll come out on top of that match-up?
"Koppel: People's Republic of Capitalism" (Discovery 8 p.m.) Ted Koppel leads us on an informed discussion of China's role in the global economy. ... Me, I just like saying "Koppel." Say it with me, it's fun.
"Ghost Hunters International" (Sci-Fi 7 p.m.) The overseas ghost-hunting brigade returns for its summer season premiere. Tonight's investigation: Larnach Castle in New Zealand. You see, America has haunted sanitariums, the rest of the world has haunted castles. Sanitariums are scarier. Castles are classier.
"Scare Tactics" (Sci-Fi 8 p.m.) Sci-Fi's supernatural prank show returns with "30 Rock" funny dude Tracy Morgan as the host. Hard to tell what's scarier: the makeup and gore-heavy pranks or Morgan.

Lloyd Parker Wells, 92, a key figure in the revitalization of Chestnut Hill during the 1950s and 1960s, died May 25 at his home in the Shell Point retirement community at Ft. Myers, Fla.
Mr. Wells was instrumental in founding the Chestnut Hill Development Group – of which he had served as president – the Chestnut Hill Parking Foundation, the Chestnut Hill Historical Society, the Chestnut Hill Realty Trust and the Chestnut Hill Local newspaper.
He also had served as president of the Chestnut Hill Community Association from 1968 to 1969, and had worked to transform that organization from a typical civic association into what he called a localized "quasi-government."
A man of wide-ranging interests, Mr. Wells had been involved in underwater archaeology at Bodrum, Turkey, and in studying human development among the Bushmen of the Kalahari in South Africa and the Xingu tribe in the Brazilian Amazon.
He also had been a commercial airline pilot and a licensed commercial operator of power and sailing ships.
Born in St. Louis, where his grandfather was a former mayor, Mr. Wells was introduced to aviation as a 6-year-old by Charles A. Lindbergh, the celebrated aviator. When Lindbergh flew in to visit the grandfather, who was one of the underwriters of Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic, it was suggested that Lindbergh give the boy a ride, which he did.
The flight clearly made an impression. After graduating from Avon Old Farms School in Connecticut, Mr. Wells pursued a career in aviation, becoming a pilot for Pennsylvania Central and Northeast airlines. During World War II, he served as a pilot for the U.S. Air Transport Command and in the Civil Air Patrol's Antisubmarine Command.
In 1948, he settled in Chestnut Hill with his wife, the former Jean Tod Ballard, and became proprietor of the Hill Hardware Co. It was his experience as a shop owner that convinced him of the need for adequate parking for customers, and he began the process that would culminate in the Chestnut Hill Parking Foundation, which ultimately provided eight parking lots accommodating nearly 300 cars.
Joining with other businessmen to plant trees and upgrade the appearance of buildings along Germantown Avenue, he established the Chestnut Hill Development Group – the forerunner of the Chestnut Hill Business Association – that created an aesthetically pleasing and financially productive shopping district.
Mr. Wells saw the Chestnut Hill Community Association as a means of addressing local concerns and issues that could not be adequately dealt with by City Hall. To enhance this process, he felt it was important to have a community newspaper that would provide a forum for community discussion, and in 1958 he was instrumental in establishing the Chestnut Hill Local.
That same year, when an 85-acre tract of land at Stenton and Willow Grove avenues became available for development, he and other CHCA members concerned about the form it would take organized a town meeting attended by 200 residents who voted by a show of hands what would be allowed. The resulting development – Chestnut Hill Village – marked the first time the city had cooperated with an entity not under its jurisdiction.
It also demonstrated the political clout that could be wielded by an energized civic group. Looking back later at the event, Mr. Wells declared, "We controlled City Hall."
In the early 1960s, as a way of facilitating a comprehensive plan for Chestnut Hill, Mr. Wells and other activists established the Greene Party, a group that would endorse candidates for the CHCA board of directors who shared their goals.
During this time, he served as director of marine operations for the University of Pennsylvania's underwater archaeological expedition to Bodrum, Turkey, to excavate a Byzantine ship that had sunk around 342 AD, and was a staff member at the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential in Wyndmoor that had sponsored explorations in the Brazilian Amazon and South Africa.
In 1971, he and his second wife, the former Ellen Van Pelt Newbold (a former editor of the Chestnut Hill Local), moved to Crawford, Maine, where he converted a former hunting camp into a year-round dwelling. He served for two years as executive director of the Calais, Maine, Chamber of Commerce, and in 1979 was elected First Selectman of Crawford Township.
The couple later moved to Falmouth, Maine, and retired to Ft. Myers.
While in Maine, Mr. Wells was also active in the Episcopal Church. He was invited in 1981 by Bishop Frederick Wolf to supervise the Maine Episcopal Diocese's Stewardship Program and was elected by the diocesan convention to the New England Provincial Synod and named by Bishop Wolf to the Provincial Council.
Even in retirement, he continued with church and civic interests. He was one of the founders of the Center for Consensual Democracy and was co-author with Larry Lemmels of the book "Recreating Democracy" published in 2000.
Mr. Wells is survived by his wife; a son, Rolla Wells, of Alfred, Maine; a daughter, Frances Wells Johnson, of Darnestown, Md.; stepsons William Fisher Newbold, of St. Thomas, V.I., and David Dixon Newbold, of Bend, Ore.; a sister, Harriet Bailey, of Essex, Conn.; six grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held at a later date.

ANDERSON, S.C. – An eight point deficit in the first half proved to be the Cobra men's basketball team's undoing on Thursday night as Coker lost 89-81 to Anderson University in Conference Carolinas men's basketball action. The loss drops the Cobras to 9-12 overall and 6-9 in conference play.
Anderson outscored Coker 40-32 in the first half and that would be all the lead the Trojans would need to take home the win, as both teams scored 49 points in the second half.
The Cobras dominated the inside game, scoring 44 points in the paint compared to Anderson's 16, but the Trojans scored 17 points off the bench compared to Coker's seven points.
Coker's Vatrick Thompson (Columbia, S.C.) led all scorers with 24 points and four rebounds, while Mason Ambler (Atlanta, Ga.) had 23 points and five rebounds. Delonte Doles (Roswell, Ga.) added 10 points to the Cobras effort with seven assists and Joselle Bracy (Ruby, S.C.) had eight points and three assists.
Next up for the Cobras is Lees-McRae College on Saturday, Feb. 13 at home. Tip-off for the Conference Carolinas game is scheduled for 4:00 p.m.

Awake now! So goes my two-year-old's announcement every morning around 6. She wakes up, crawls out of bed, walks down the hall into our room and, putting her face as close to mine as she possibly can, declares the entire truth as she sees it at that moment. It is a microcosm of her every action, for she is saying, in essence, This is me, this is my world. Here, you must share in it. Her words faithfully reflect her worldview, the scope of which is small but at the same time unlimited.
In this sense my daughter half resembles President Bush, whose worldview is narrow andhow shall I put it?not unlimited. The bombing of Iraq, the expulsion of Russian diplomats, promoting drilling in arctic wilderness and the rejection of the Kyoto agreement on the reduction of greenhouse gasesthese actions suggest the This is my world mentality of a two-year-old, but with one important difference. Unlike the child whose mind is fired by the freedom of imagination, Mr. Bush appears, as he did throughout the 2000 campaign, to be a scripted puppet who, when forced to speak extemporaneously outside the tethered confines of what he knows, stumbles through a most unimpressive display of halting and faltering speech replete with banalities. Moreover, everything seems either good or not good to himas in We won't do anything that might not be good for the U.S. economy or I feel good about appointing him; he's a good man who'll do a good job for the American people.
In his defense, this kind of un-nuanced, uncomplicated talk is what many voters liked and chose in November. Part of the Clinton backlash (remember his parsing of the word is?) was that many voters embraced the idea of a president who was an unabashed linguistic simpleton. And Bush is following through on the content, tone and style he established in his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. He declared, for instance, that now is the time not to defend outdated treaties but to defend the American people, and so he has vowed vociferously to pursue the antimissile shield, over the strong objections of allies.
On the other hand, he has reversed himself on a campaign pledge to seek major reductions in carbon dioxide emissions from U.S. power plants. Most elected officials fail to fulfill everything they promised on the stump, but far more disturbing in this case is the international reaction and ramifications. The administration's myopic decision provoked a stunned and angry reaction among America's allies in Europe and Japan. As The Washington Post put it, To U.S. allies, the decision confirms a troubling willingness by the new occupant of the White House to take the United States off on solo tacks, without consultations with trusted governments.
As illustrated by the recent standoff with China, being the lone superpower and would-be world policeman makes the United States as much resented as it is envied. What is required of the American president is a subtlety in and relish for international affairs. It should be a cause of concern for us all that the problem the U.S. increasingly faces on the world stage is exacerbated by the fact that our current president is so ill-suited to act on that stage.
I may be wrong. Bush may overcome the odds, for as he said back in August in that Philadelphia convention hall, Greatness is found when American character and American courage overcome American challenges. But what does this mean? The hackneyed heaping of American this upon American that reveals more than his tireless reliance on tired clichés; it also demonstrates his simplistic articulation of any issue, policy or problem that extends beyond his script, his borders, his personal experience. Considering how little of the world outside the United States he has ever seen or, dare I say, read aboutand how readily, even proudly, he admits this factit is both unsurprising and extraordinarily inauspicious to hear the way he speaks, and fails to speak, about America in an international context.
I will bring honor and dignity back to the presidency was Bush's rallying cry throughout the campaign. But where is the honor and dignity in appearing to be a provincial, ill-informed nationalist posing as leader of the free world? While honor and dignity, in the narrow sense in which Mr. Bush uses the terms, cannot help but fare better in this White House (it wouldn't take much), he has a long way to go before he demonstrates the capacity and awareness to bring to the presidency the kind of honor and dignity that is respected by people other than the conservative right wing. It may well come as a shock to the president to learn that to most people and most governments in the world, honor and dignity entail more than just refraining from sexual acts in the Oval Office.
The American president must possess the ability to articulate and contextualize issues and problems, for the sake of Americans as well as hundreds of millions of people throughout the world. He is by default, if not by definition, the most powerful person on the planet. Mr. Bush leaves little doubt that he truly believes his presidency is about American character and American challenges that have very little to do with being a participant in the world community. His visible discomfort with entertaining or discussing ideas and topics that pull him beyond his safe and predictable confines is more than just an American concern.
America is not the forum for political speeches by frustrated liberals. Rather it should be a forum for discussion and debate on theological, philosophical and morals-related economic issues. We should discuss how we can implement Jesus' commandment to love one another and spread the good news of his love for us, despite all our shortcomings, real and imagined.

FC Spartak Moskva showed great unity when they overcame UEFA Champions League Group G rivals SL Benfica 2-1 in Russia on matchday three. Their twin representatives, Kirill and Dmitri Kombarov, epitomise that togetherness and spoke to UEFA.com about their unbreakable bond on and off the pitch.
The 25-year-olds began their footballing education with Spartak in 1993, before joining city rivals FC Dinamo Moskva in 2001. Nine years later they returned to their spiritual home guided by intense feelings of nostalgia. "We had so many good memories having spent so many years with Spartak," said midfielder Dmitri. "When they asked us to come back, we remembered the past and it was an easy decision to make."
Their relationship is heartwarming, and at times mightily effective. "We help each other during hard times and situations. We know each other on a deep level, better than any two people on this earth," said defender Kirill. "We sense each other on the pitch. There have been lots of moments when I've passed him the ball and he's scored or vice versa."
To discover more about the twins' family business, their strengths and weaknesses and admiration for Lionel Messi, watch the video above.

Sorry, I was looking for some video tapes.-Griffith
I have an idea, when someone connects to the bbs, he should get directly to the chat and sees whether there is some one or not ... and if there is anybody, he can stay to wait for others, thus, people should meet each other more frequently ... what do you think of it ?

After his re-election last year, President Obama acknowledged the difficulty Larry Summers could face in winning Senate confirmation and tasked a senior adviser to improve the Fed chief candidate's image on Capitol Hill, according to a published report.
Continue Reading Below
Summers is believed to hold the inside track to replace current Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, despite concerns about whether his brash personality could clash with the collegial and consensus-building nature of the job.
Aware of Summers' reputation and concerns about his coziness to Wall Street, Obama tapped Rob Nabors, then liaison to Congress, to head up the job of rebuffing the economist's image, according to The New York Times.
"He needs to do some work on the Hill. You need to work with him, Rob." Obama said, according to the paper.
While many in Washington and some in the financial markets prefer Janet Yellen, who Obama named vice chairman of the Fed in 2010, the president is leaning towards Summers due to the personal relationship they developed during the dark days of the financial crisis, the Times reported.
Some market participants worry about whether Summers would be too quick to unwind quantitative easing, the bond-buying program that has helped stimulate risky assets like stocks.
Yellen appears more likely to follow Bernanke's playbook and do more to boost growth, which hawks fear could eventually risk fanning inflation.
Obama has reached out to a number of key players for advice on Bernanke's replacement.
According to the report, Rahm Emanuel, Obama's former chief of staff, is in favor of Summers getting the nomination, while senior adviser Valerie Jarrett prefers Yellen, who would be the first female chief of the world's most powerful central bank.
It's not clear whether the tough fight on Capitol Hill over authorization for military intervention in Syria will alter the White House's willingness for a battle with the Senate over Summers.
Additionally, Obama faces looming arguments with Congress over extending the debt ceiling, a potential market-rattling event.
"Why would Obama take on another huge fight?" Greg Valliere, chief political strategist at Potomac Research Group, wrote in a note to clients on Thursday. "The inevitable firestorm over Summers is the last thing Obama needs this fall."
Donald Kohn, former vice chair of the Fed and a dark-horse candidate to replace Bernanke, serves as senior economic strategist at Potomac.
The White House had been possibly ready to make an announcement on Fed succession next week, but the crisis in Syria averted such a move, the Times reported.

DAHLONEGA, Ga. – The Georgia College women's basketball team (11-3, 4-3 PBC) lost an overtime thriller at No.19 University of North Georgia (12-1, 6-0 PBC), 94-88 Wednesday night at Memorial Hall. The loss snapped the Bobcats' road win streak at five and was the team's second overtime loss in as many games.
"We would have liked to come out of this game with a win," said GC women's head coach Maurice Smith. "I was proud of the way we played in the first half and the second half. We had our chances and opportunities."
Junior Shanteona Keys (Roswell,Ga) scored a season-high 29 points to lead the Bobcats. Keys added seven boards and four assists and now needs 40 points to tie No.13 all-time Allison Barry at 1,096. Keys also moved into No. 7 all-time in free throws going 5-for-5 for a career total of 238.
Junior Enisha Donley (Loganville, Ga.) scored 22, while senior Brandi McKinney (Cincinnati) registered 18 and a team-high eight boards. Freshman LaRice Walker (Franklin, Ga.) had 11 points, five boards, four assists and two blocks in a solid effort.
Georgia College trailed only nine seconds during regulation play and took a 16-point lead into the intermission at 45-31. The Nighthawks opened the first seven minutes of the second half with a 15-8 run that cut the Bobcat lead to seven, but it would take UNG 19:50 of the second half to finally draw even at 76 apiece.
In overtime, McKinney gave the Bobcats their biggest lead with a three at 81-78, but the Nighthawks went on an eight-point run and pulled away for the win.
Current Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Player of the Week Mimi Hill led all scorers with 36 while garnishing 10 boards. Cierra Jackson added 20 points and seven assists, and Stephanie Huffman led all rebounders with 16.
The Bobcats had an eight- and seven-point edge in fast-break and bench points, respectively, and out-shot the Nighthawks from outside the arc 40-20 percent.
Senior Abby Slocumb (Suwanee, Ga.) matched a season-high with four blocks, giving her eight in the last two games.
The Bobcats' next matchup will be against Georgia Regents University Augusta on Monday, Jan. 20 for a PBC tilt starting at 5:30 p.m. at the Centennial Center.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.
