[RE-UPDATE: Paul Rudd will play Scott Lang while Michael Douglas will play Hank Pym!]
[UPDATE: Marvel has confirmed that Paul Rudd will play Ant-Man. Scroll for details.]
Marvel Studios has proven it's a force to be reckoned with, changing the game with its shared universe model, making a multi-million brand out of superhero movies, and breakout stars out of more than a few actors. But riskier waters lie ahead for the studio, with comic book properties that virtually no one outside of the fanboy community knows about (Guardians of the Galaxy) or cares about (Ant-Man).
But will the skepticism about Ant-Man change - now that we know that charm-king actor Paul Rudd is playing him?
The Wrap dropped the exclusive announcement of Rudd "being in talks" with Marvel Studios, but with months of speculation that Rudd was in competition for the role against Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who's since moved on to Sandman) - as well as the noted (and observable) evidence of Rudd already looking more fit for the role, it's a pretty safe bet that the actor WILL be signing on the dotted line to play Hank Pym.
RE-UPDATE: Though The Wrap initially confirmed Rudd as Pym, it turns out Rudd is in fact the character Scott Lang, with Michael Douglas now confirmed as Hank Pym. TWIST ENDING!
Ant-Man has been in development for some time under the eye of The World's End director Edgar Wright, who co-wrote the script with Attack the Block filmmaker Joe Cornish; Wright will also be directing the flick.
The skepticism about Ant-Man as a viable film property should be obvious; it's about a superhero scientist who invents size-altering particles and technology that allows him to communicate with insects. That's pretty silly even by comic book standards.
However, fans should be happy to learn that Hank Pym - one of the founding Avengers in the comic books - will indeed be the version of Ant-Man we're getting. How Pym will be implemented into the Marvel movie universe remains to be seen - it could be a vastly different playing field by the time Ant-Man kicks off Phase 3 following the events of The Avengers: Age of Ultron in summer 2015 - and how much of his mythos is implemented also remains to be seen.
Will we also get Wasp? Will elements of other Ant-Man mantle holders like Scott Lang (a father) and/or Eric O'Grady (a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent) be melded with this version of Pym? It's definitely possible (maybe even prudent) to have the best elements of all three Ant-Men combined into one quality movie character.
UPDATE: It's official - Marvel has confirmed that Paul Rudd has been cast as Ant-Man. Here's what Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige had to say about the casting decision:
"When Edgar Wright came to us with the idea of Paul Rudd, we felt a huge sense of relief because the first step in creating any Marvel Studios film is finding the right star. We knew early on that we had found the right person in Paul. When he not only agreed to do it but became as enthusiastic as any actor we'd ever met with about doing the work, we knew we'd found the right guy. We couldn't be more excited for our audiences to see what he's going to do to bring Ant-Man to life."

Ant-Man will be in theaters on July 31, 2015.

Ways of seeing the brain inspire notions of how it works
Alex Huth, James Gao and Jack Gallant/UC Berkeley
The mysterious contents of the skull have long captivated their owners.
Ancient Egyptians treated brain injuries by pouring milk in both ears. Aristotle believed the brain was a cooling unit for the heart. Galen, the leading physician of the Roman Empire, claimed that "animal spirits" imbued the brain with its abilities.
These ideas were a product of limited tools and unscientific preconceptions. As scientists have developed more sophisticated methods and ideas, their understanding of how the brain works has shifted too.

C.C. Fontana is a Long Island, New York, native who's been causing major buzz in the entertainment industry. We all might recognize this sexy model/actress from the hit television show The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency, where she was selected to become one of Janice's first Latin models within her agency. For C.C., that accomplishment was definitely a dream come true, because she had the opportunity to represent the Latin culture to the fullest.
Not only that, C.C. has many projects in the works. She is scheduled to release her debut album, as well as star in a movie that depicts the true life of America's first supermodel, Janice Dickinson. With all of these great accomplishments under her belt, we knew that this Veneuelan/Italian exotic beauty had to grace the cover of Lowrider Magazine.
Lowrider Magazine Talks With C.C. Fontana "I like to drive a stick, because I feel like I have all the control."
LRM: C.C., you've been modeling for quite some time now. What sparked your interest in wanting to be in Lowrider Magazine?
C.C.: Well, I've always liked lowrider cars since I was very young. To me, this magazine is the best out there and shows off the best lowriders.
LRG: That's great! So tell us, if you had the opportunity to design your own lowrider what color would it be? And what would you name it?
C.C.: If I had the opportunity to create my own lowrider, it would have a white interior with candy apple red piping on the seats. I would name it "Big Red."
LRM: That sounds hot! In your opinion what's the sexiest part of a lowrider?
C.C.: I must say, I like the hydraulics. I like that feeling of going up and down.
LRM: Since you think that the hydraulics is the sexiest part of a lowrider, tell us what's your sexiest asset or assets?
C.C.: I must say my lips and my curves.
LRM: We definitely agree with you on that one! So what do you find attractive about men as well as women?
C.C.: I love a man who can fix his own car; that's so sexy to me, and as for women, being confident and not hating on other women to me is very sexy.
LRM: That's cool… last, but not least, do you like to drive a stick or automatic?
C.C.: I like to drive a stick, because I feel like I have all the control.

April 21, 2009
NEW YORK - On March 27, over 100 friends of Yale Track and Field and Cross Country gathered at the Yale Club of New York City to celebrate the amazing accomplishments of the classes of 1959-1963. This group of track athletes won an amazing seven Heptagonals Championships in only five years.
Featured speakers on behalf of the honoree group were Jim Wade '59 and Olympian Wendell Mottley '64. Each spoke eloquently and fondly about his experiences while competing for the Eli and legendary coach Bob Giegengack. Mr. Wade recounted several stories of Yale Track lore, including accounts of the notable meets that coach "Gieg" entered the team and individuals in, to get them used to the "big stage" and the pressure of the major meets. Mr. Mottley also recounted several stories about his Yale track days, and ended with a fascinating account of his Olympic experience in 1964, when he earned the silver medal in the 400 meter run, while competing against his former coach and the US team.
This was a truly special evening for all, with over 25 members of the classes of '59-`64, coaches, alumni, current team members, and friends of the program all coming together in annual celebration of this storied track program. Many of the members of the '59-`63 teams also gathered in the afternoon and may have set another record for the longest lunch in the history of the Yale Club . . . over 4 hours! This is another example of the close friendships and bonds that tie this very special group together.
It was an honor and great pleasure to see such a fine group of athletes and friends together again after many years and relating to one another as if they were together only days ago. This was truly an unforgettable evening and an example to the members of the current teams in attendance of what athletics at Yale can mean to one's entire life.

Protests in Greece provoked a rising demand for gold
Greece is being the subject of the latest news worldwide and it is no surprise because the country is not going through the best time in its history. One of the latests ones concerns gold mining activities that are taking place in the northern Greece, administered by the Canadian company Eldorado Gold.
Recently the Greek government has decided to reconsider the license of the company: the Greek authorities claim that mining harms the environment, although, there is no official confirmation of this fact. Additionally, mass media points to the fact that Eldorado Gold has already passed the ecological test.
At present, about 2,000 people are working at the mines, and it is planned to attract about 1,000 people more before 2020. This initiative of the government has led to protests in which about 4,000 people participate (miners and other workers), gathering in Athens and waving flags with the slogan "Yes to mines, yes to growth". The protests occurred in spite of government's promise that workers will keep their job.
It worth mentioning that the company Eldorado Gold has invested into this gold deposit about 400 millions of dollars since 2012, as the company is aware that the demand for gold is growing and it will keep growing in the future, and this country could provide supplies from its mines. That is why in their plans it was included to invest 700 millions more to build a processing plant which will serve 2 neighboring gold deposits.
Emgoldex clients also understand the importance of yellow metal when it comes to strengthening the economy of a country as well as strengthening one's personal financial status. That is why Emgoldex clients buy investment gold bars in the Emgoldex online store in order to protect one's capital and to gain high and stable income, because the increase of demand for gold leads to the increase of gold prices.
Share this piece of news with everybody who is interested in the dynamic world of gold and tell everybody about the most profitable opportunity to buy gold!

Arnold Schwarzenegger's son Patrick was allegedly kicked out of a Hollywood club on Saturday after feuding with a DJ.
The 19-year-old student and model was partying at The Sayers Club when he bumped into DJ Anthony Valdez's mixing gear and he was asked to move away.
Patrick allegedly began throwing ice cubes at Valdez, prompting security to reportedly escort him out of the venue.
The teen appeared to comment on the incident via Twitter on Monday, writing, "Excuse my language. I apologize."
He added, "Live and learn … hope everyone has a blessed day."

The modern-day equivalent of warming ones feet by the fire, these boots "contain a special blend of natural wheat grain and dried French lavender that, once heated, stay warm for up to two hours" after just two minutes of microwaving. Wow, it makes all those electric heated-boots seem clunky and old fashioned because, hey, what's more modern than a microwave? They make no mention, however, of how this affects the taste of your food; I'd like my frozen pizza with a waft of foot-odor thanks! CozyFeet cost about $24. [Gadget Shop via Shiny Shiny]


text: The Original T-Mobile HTC Shadow was quite good for a Windows mobile phone because of its non-Windows-Mobile Windows Mobile UI. If this leaked picture really is the Shadow II, then T-Mobile is continuing on the same path of loading a proprietary UI on top of the standard WM facade. There's not much else we can tell from this, but we do see that it has MyFaves and HotSpot@Home compatibility. Is this still made by HTC? Probably, unless T-Mobile defected to i-Mate or something. If you're looking for a HotSpot@Home phone in the near future, you might want to wait to see how this one plays out. [Tmonews]

Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Combine in a large roasting pan:
1 celery root, trimmed, peeled, and cut into large chunks
2 russet potatoes (...
Of all foods that can be classified as "un-sexy"--beef stew, cole slaw, banana pudding--it is perhaps granola whose reputation is most chaste.
Granola is the quintessential health food, no matter how unhealthy today's average serving of granola really is. It often resembles something for scooping into a feed bag, and its dry crunch needs a little milk or yogurt to round out the edges. Granola does not party, it does not seduce, and it most certainly does not astonish.
And yet, I confess that granola is on the short list of my very favorite foods. It composes my breakfast, along with a big scoop of yogurt and a spoonful of honey, most mornings. And as someone who has eaten granola from a tender age, I am something of a connoisseur. As a matter of fact, I have been developing my personal granola recipe--my granola ideal, if you will--for five years and counting. I am very protective of my granola recipe, and so unfortunately cannot share it here (bwahaha), but I am willing to share a recipe that is almost as good, and that is far better than anything you can buy in the bulk bins at your health food store.
My ideal granola is simple--oats, nuts, seeds. There should be a sweetener, and for flavor I prefer sorghum or maple; honey in a pinch. For maximum crunch and to achieve those delightful clusters, the mixture does need a little sugar or brown sugar. There is also oil involved. I used to think that butter gave the best flavor, but of late I have taken to using olive oil, an unlikely but truly fabulous pairing. Safflower, or another flavorless oil is also an option. Finally, there must be salt. The best granola is salty-sweet, in my opinion, and never cloying.
Our latest batch of granola has travelled with us across the country, and is no worse for the wear. On the road, a good breakfast is crucial. Hotel breakfasts, with their soggy waffles and thawed quasi-Danishes, are a vaguely sad way of beginning what should be a day of adventure and wonder. I find that homemade granola rectifies this situation, needing only a small container of yogurt or a cup of milk to stand alone as breakfast.
On using flax in granola: Whole flax seeds are impossible to digest, so don't waste money by adding them whole to granola. Ground flax seeds go rancid quickly, so I don't recommend adding them to batches of granola either. If you like the protein and fatty acids that flax supplies, feel free to add flax meal to individual servings of granola. This prevents the premature expiration of your granola and gives it a last-minute nutritional boost.
Granola is incredibly versatile. Feel free to substitute your favorite nuts and seeds. You may also like to add in some dried fruit or candied ginger once the granola has cooled. When I'm feeling really decadent or just undisciplined, I'll add cacao nibs and pistachios. You may also want to add some spices--cinnamon, cloves, allspice, ginger, black pepper, and cardamom would all be at home here, as would a less spicy garam masala. You may also omit the milk powder for an only slightly different result.
Preheat the oven to 300°F. Scatter over a large rimmed baking sheet and toast in the oven about 15 minutes, stirring frequently:
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
Mix in a large bowl:
11⁄2 cups wheat germ
1⁄2 cup dry milk powder (I used half nonfat milk powder and half malted milk powder--don't forget that powdered milk is the msg of baking, in a good way)
1 cup coarsely chopped almonds
1 cup shredded or flaked unsweetened coconut
1⁄2 cup sesame seeds
1 cup hulled sunflower seeds and/or pumpkin seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt
Heat in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes:
1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
1⁄2 cup honey or maple syrup
Stir the honey mixture into the wheat germ mixture. Combine with the toasted oats. Spread in a thin layer on the baking sheet (use 2 pans if necessary) and toast, stirring frequently, 45 minutes, or until all the ingredients are toasted. Let cool, then store in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 1 month.

HARRISONBURG, Va. (AP) – A hearing is set in Harrisonburg on the lawsuit challenging Virginia's same-sex marriage ban.
Lawyers for the two Shenandoah Valley couples who filed the lawsuit are asking a federal judge to certify the case as a class action representing all same-sex couples in the state. Judge Michael Urbanski will hear arguments.
The judge also will consider whether to dismiss Gov. Bob McDonnell and Staunton Circuit Court Clerk Thomas E. Roberts as defendants. The other defendant is Janet Rainey, the state registrar of vital records.
The merits of the case won't be argued until Jan. 3. The plaintiffs claim Virginia's constitutional amendment prohibiting gay marriage and denying recognition of such unions sanctioned by other states violates the equal protection and due process clauses of the Constitution.

This is the rolling pin and the cookie cutters that I was given at my wedding shower. I think this was kind of a standard assortment that everyone had at the time. These are the shapes I always used when my children were small and the same ones my grandchildren grew up with. Now these are the ones that my great-grandson always looks for. His favorite is the pony.
My baking is almost done except for pies for Christmas dinner, I still need to find more stocking stuffer gifts, then I can say I am done. (Update, a trip to Target and the Dollar Tree and the stockings are super full.) How about you, are you almost ready to relax and enjoy the season.

Sprawling Houston post office reborn with High Line-style rooftop park
The OMA-designed renovation will include a 5-acre rooftop park and organic farm Houston may be getting a new High Line-esque signature park space, as an ambitious reuse of the city?s abandoned central post office aims to build a massive rooftop garden atop an office and entertainment center to the edge of downtown.
This new vision for Houston?s Barbara Jordan Post Office, to be called POST Houston, will be one of the city?s largest adaptive reuse projects. The mixed-use facility will boast one of the world?s largest rooftop farms, a concert venue, and a mixture of retail and office space including restaurants, bars, an international market hall, and flexible coworking spaces.
Lovett Commercial, the Houston-based firm that purchased the 15-acre site in 2015, will use the historic tax credit as part of a broad plan to overhaul the site. They haven?t announced how much they plan to spend on the project. ?Houston is the country?s most culturally diverse community,? said Frank Liu, President of Lovett Commercial. ?We hope POST Houston will become a destination for Houstonians and travelers and we are determined to create a one-of-a-kind urban ecosystem that will showcase the vibrancy of our great city.?
The cavernous 550,000-square-foot concrete campus, which features a two-story warehouse connected to a five-story administration building, was designed by the firm Wilson Morris Crain & Anderson in 1962, and recently had a second life as a concert venue, playing host t...

This health-conscious guest post is by Debra of the fabulous hapa bento. We are entering the heavy duty feasting season now, so now is a good a time as ever to use nutritional bentos to keep yourself going!
The classic bento box with its proportioned rice, protein and vegetable combination is a balance of taste, harmony of flavors, and prepared to keep spoilage to a minimum. Another dimension of this classic lunch is nutrition. The rice provides carbohydrates, and carbs are arguably the most important source of energy. The protein keeps your muscles in repair, vegetables offer crucial vitamins that nourish your organs, and lastly but just as vital, some fats. More about the value of fats a little later. A bento box lunch is designed to offer sustenance.
But what if you need more? What if you are an active person and need to turn it up a notch? Well, a nutritionally dense bento box may be your answer.
Tweaking your bento box by packing nutritionally intense foods is an important enhancement for people who exercise or train on a regular basis. More "bang for your buck" as the saying goes.
My husband "Saba Man", nicknamed for his love of mackerel, and I have enjoyed participating in the local events in the past. We took a break but now we're back in training for a sprint distance triathlon. Needless to say we are always hungry and crave the foods that offer optimal health benefits! Here's how I boosted our bento box lunches in support of achieving our goals.
The first change for raising the bento box "bar", was to simply switch from white rice to brown. We like brown rice, but if you don't, then try mixing half and half at first then slowly eliminate the white grains with each batch. Work your way up to an onigiri that's 100% brown. Brown rice provides fiber as well as the energy that fuels our muscles. For heavy workout days, 2 onigiri or musubi as I call them, are de rigueur. And by wrapping rice up in a sheet of nori, we've enhanced it with essential amino acids and Vitamin C. Never be afraid to eat more seaweed!
When I'm not in the mood for rice, I like packing sweet potatoes which are also high on the nourishment scale. Better than regular potatoes, some sources rank it as number one! The wonderful sweet potato — they taste fantastic. I keep their skins on whenever possible for additional vitamins. It's important to mention that I usually roast the potato. Roasting or baking lessens the leaching of vitamins and nutrients.
Do you like tamagoyaki? Perfect. Eggs are filled with healthy goodness, high quality protein without the high calories. Convenient too. When time is a factor, I can cook a batch of tamagoyaki or hard boil a dozen eggs and save them for couple of days. Maki has a wonderful recipe for making miso marinated boiled eggs. The miso not only adds a delicious touch of savory flavor but again, more nutrients. Saba Man's bento box lunches almost always feature both an egg along and another protein such as salmon or tuna mini burgers.
We opt for salmon because of the Omega 3 oils that other animal meats do not provide. And the salmon skin furnishes more of the essential fats. If fish is not your thing, then substitute with homemade chicken or turkey burgers and add flax seeds. I sometimes go ahead and add flax seeds to the tuna burgers too. It's a good thing.
Being that I am vegetarian, my bento box contains neither fish nor chicken. My lunches are filled with chick peas (garbanzo beans), falafel or "wheat meat" (seitan) along with eggs. My intake of Omega 3 is via steel cut oatmeal cooked with ground flax seeds. This is the standard in my breakfast bento box; a very healthy start to the day and it keeps me going until lunch.
Both of us love our veggies and the "go to" greenery is broccoli. Hands down, it's the most versatile, delicious and highly nutritious vegetable. Again, roasting is preferable with olive oil and seasonings. Broccoli is ranked very high on the "wholesome scale" and I recommend them not only for their health values but for ease in preparation and packing. I also suggest the very healthy brussel sprout. And as we recently discovered, roasted brussel sprouts taste pretty good.
I want to stress that vegetables are essential but do not take up the majority of space inside our box. This is because they are low in calories. Nutritious calories are needed to fuel our workout, but a disproportionate amount of veggies with their lowered energy value, will not sustain us through the day and especially not when training. We have noticed that when I pack too many vegetables and fruits, our workouts lack quality and endurance.
Speaking of fruits — they offer valuable benefits too and do occasionally appear in some of our bento boxes. However, leaving out the bits of fruit and instead filing the void with more protein works better for us. I now stuff a whole fruit in our bags for any emergency ìpick me upî instead. With each bento that I pack, I am learning about what works, and what doesn't. Our bento boxes are evolving, especially now that we are exercising more than usual.
Let's talk about fats. The fats and oils are naturally included in our bento ingredients. The fish, eggs, and beans contain all the "good" fats which are important for providing the main fuel source during the long, and low to moderate intensity exercise. Vegetables also contain their own fats. Olive oil, with it's monounsaturated fats, is used for roasting our vegetables. It's also good for additional flavoring, but don't over do it.
Fats and oils are calorie dense; too much fat will, well, make you fat. I do consume extra fats by eating nuts and occasionally tuck in some raw almonds. Eating them raw is far healthier than eating them cooked and they are an essential part of our daily fat intake. Saba Man and I are not athletes, not by the farthest stretch of the imagination, and cannot afford the consumption of vast amounts of calories like marathoners, Iron Man participants or Michael Phelps. So we keep additional fats low.
The rest of the bento lunch are the fillers and these come in all shapes, flavors and forms. I like red and orange foods such as cherry tomatoes and carrot sticks, not only because of their excellent health benefits, but like all the before mentioned foods, you can enjoy eating without the fuss of utensils. It's not a crucial factor, but it is (pardon the pun), handy when we are in a rush. No need for chopsticks, forks or picks.
A daily bento box or two, filled with yummy, energy packed items is crucial as we juggle our jobs, training and other daily tasks! Saba Man and I dine "on the go" constantly and a pre-packed healthy meal allows us the freedom to eat when ever and where ever. Sometimes in the car while commuting between work and the workout!
As you can see, my nutritious bento boxes do not stray too far from the traditional concept. A classic bento does lend itself to eating for fitness — all that's needed for optimization is to choose brown rice over white, roast your veggies and sweet potatoes instead of boiling. Add flax seeds when you can. Use olive oil, but sparingly. And keep all other fats and oils to a minimum. Fruits can be completely eliminated from the bento box. Eggs provide essential nutrients and protein. If you are a vegetarian, the egg is important as well as garbanzo, ìwheat meatî and soy.
Whether you are a weekend warrior, a dedicated marathon runner, or just working out to maintain your fitness, eating a healthy bento box, packed with nutritiously dense foods not only plays a major role in your body's well being, but also with your own athletic goals.
As a reminder, this article is about my personal needs and habits, and like any other physical program, please consult your physician for guidance before starting your own regimen.
Debra, author of hapa bento, and her husband currently live outside of Seattle, Washington with their two cats, suitably named Mochi and Musubi. They enjoy traveling, dining out and dancing more than working out, but they somehow squeeze trips to the gym within their busy schedule. Commuting separately because of opposite work schedules is very challenging and having a packed bento box lunch curbs any spontaneous food spending and hunger pangs.
They both grew up in Hawaii and enjoyed a culturally diverse diet where bento boxes were the norm, so it was a natural step to start making them for their daily lunches. With Debra's renewed sense of a healthy lifestyle, sending her husband off to work with a bento box full of nutritious foods coupled with a variety of ethnic flavors, gives her great satisfaction. Her bento boxes are not only healthy and tasty, but also express and celebrate their combined Hawaiian, Chinese, Korean, Filipino, African American and European heritages!

I'm inspired to make bento again! Thanks for sharing this post, I love to see simple bentos that are attractive and filling!
wow hapa, congrats on the just bento post! VERY informative and inspiring. i always enjoy reading your blog, and am glad a different audience will now get to hear from you, too! best of luck with your training... i'm sure this pretty and HEALTHY bento will give you what you need!
"Saba Man and I dine "on the go" constantly and a pre-packed healthy meal allows us the freedom to eat when ever and where ever. Sometimes in the car while commuting between work and the workout! "
This is very inspirational to me, and it reminds me that bento is not only for the days I work 9-5 and pack my little lunch to eat in the staff room! It can also be for a busy weekend and help me avoid the convineince of a fast food drive-thru (my personal downfall!) or eating too much when I finally make it home because I waited too long to eat.
I also liked how fruit doesn't have to be included to make it "healthy". I find I feel more satisfied after eating protiens and veggies than fruits. I think it's the carbs in the fruit that eventually lead me to more cravings, so I mostly eat fruit as dessert or as a treat.
Thanks for such a nice post! Very helpful =)
I'm sure there are many very good products that can be added to my "bento box." It's worth trying many of these delights to find a core group of items that I can alternate in and out of my bento box. casino en ligne

edited May 2012 in Non-Animal Collective Discussion
What if MPP got even more attention then it already has and AC explodes into mainstream and starts producing a lot of music like Merriweather, would you guys still be as big of fans as AnCo as you are today? I personally never really liked Merriweather with the exception of Taste and My Girls was pretty catchy, but the album as a whole never stuck to me like Strawberry Jam or Feels, Thoughts, anyone?
I'd still be a fan of them if this were to happen, but I'd emphasize that I'm just a fan of their previous albums. I hate it when bands sell out or turn mainstream and lose their funk. example a: the black keys.
OMG. a great examplee! i used to be such a big fan of the black keys but with el camino and their last album and brothers in a way..meh.
and with mgmt, i think the same kinda thing happened. its such a shame. ;/
Exactly. Listen to Magic Potion and then their new album, no one can deny the fact that they are doing what will sell, I wish more bands would stick to their roots. I dont think AC will do that though. But with the two new songs released im incredibly hesitant..I understand they're doing what theyve never done before (like they always do) but i feel like I've heard 50 other songs just like them. And that's not how it's supposed to be. I listened to AC because they were original and absolutely nothing sounded like them- just completely out of the ordinary. Now I can't say that. I just hope the album as a whole will be better..when I went to pitchfork last summer all I could think about was the studio versions of A Long Time Ago and Knock You Down. Still hoping for those.
I mean, ODDSAC and TTG are evidence enough, not to mention Honeycomb and Gotham. I really loved MPP though, so if their new album is similar to that feel I'd be fine with it. I'm confused that you think MGMT sold out, Krishna. Do you think Congradulations was a sell-out? They basically gave a middle finger to all their superficial fans that wanted another Kids or Electric Feel and made a cohesive pop album without a stand-out hit. Personally, I think they're the anti sell-out. One band that I think sold out was Interpol, starting with Our Love to Admire. Turn on the Bright Lights and Antics made them one of my favourite bands, but they just progressively became worse and more poppy. I didn't even get their self-titled release because I didn't like the singles. I don't have anything against bands becoming "mainstream" though if they stick to what made them great in the first place.
I really dont think its possible for AC to become mainstream because they dont care about what others want and are too experimental to fit into any specific musical category. Which makes them the ultimate hipster band. Even what we view as pop, such as MPP, scares off a lot of people. If they made another MPP, I would be fine with that, because I loved it, but that is not going to happen because they are constantly reinventing themselves. AC did not make MPP to gain more fans. But what really matters to me is that their energy is always there. AC seems to really believe and love the music they make and if MPP music spoke to them it would speak to me, and each MPP would be as beautiful as the next. In short, I highly doubt they would sellout, but if they did, I would still love AC if they still cared.
Krishna, I really like the title of this thread.
i joined this forum instead of collected animals cause we dont say words like "mainstream", or "sellout". these types of discussions ruin music
although, i agree with narnia, they will never be mainstream. i showed my friend honeycomb yesterday and he said he couldnt even hear the singer's voice and it gave him a headache. our tastes are more tweaked than we think.
Well for one. They're just words, they don't directly impact the artist in any way. They hold no affect on them. Two, how does it ruin music ? If you wanna know what ruins music it's the record labels. And third, I don't believe you are the forum police and I didn't know you could set rules to what we can and can't say on here.
i wasn't trying to police in any way. i dont know how you became hostile just from my comment. i meant it ruins music for me. i had a hard time enjoying anco in the beginning of my fanship because i know that if i tell people i like them they will just say "you only listen to them because you think you're cool" or something. im sorry for offending you
i totally get what you mean Ticonderoga. thats what one of my best friends actually tells me too lol, that i just listen to them to be "edgy" and such. i guess this post is ignorant on my part, sorry.
I think you were just making a joke on a sensitive topic. After all, this an Animal Collective forum! I think all of have been poked at for liking whatever music we like. I've been called a hipster plenty.
ive only been called hipster by my family. mainly because i wore ray-ban wayfarer glasses all of last year. i still regret that. *shutters*
I'm with Ticonderoga. I like what music I like and don't worry about bands selling-out or what is mainstream. I personally love the Black Keys new music and their older music and i'm glad that they're out there making money and putting on killer live shows for thousands and thousands of people. I also appreciate the artists that never want to do that. If I like the music then that is good enough for me and if I don't like it anymore well then, the artist has changed for one reason or another and at least i like some of their albums. Worry about selling-out just isn't constructive.
I don't worry about selling out in the sense of making an album that widens your audience, it's just the artists that gain fame due to declining quality of albums. I don't care that they've "sold out" like joined a major label or become more pop-oriented but I do care if I really don't enjoy their new albums because of the changes they've made. In the end it's their choice and we have to respect that, but that doesn't mean I have to enjoy it.
I would only get worried if they got locked into some sort of groove -- like someone mentioned Black Keys earlier. If every song they started making sounded the same, like if the whole new album was "My Girls" then I would get a little upset. It doesn't sound like that though. Their sound is so dynamic and changes with everything they do, and I don't think the new album will be an exception to that rule. I don't really care how popular they are -- I care how much they stay true to their own creative impulses.
Yeah, I cant tell the difference between Black Keys songs now. They all sound exactly the same.
yeah, the thing that made me stop listening to the Black Keys was the consistency in their music, like i never even gave El Camino a thorough listen, it was all the same stuff from Brothers and Magic Potion, and like Moondog said nobody wants a album full of My Girls.
Okay I think the Peacefish needs to come into this discussion, I sense bad vibes! To Pottle and TicToc: I know you guys have a misunderstanding but COME ON, no one insulted someones mother (it's mothers day *I give my mom a back rub and does the chores early*). Tic just wanted to say that he liked this board because of how reasonably and responsibly we discuss music. Pottle, I understand your point of view too, but I am sure Tic was not trying to police you or any of us. I just want both of you to realize that no one can police on here except Wini, however we can report stuff too. Please make ammends via PM, just talk to each other about it privately. Black Keys: If it were not for the Black Keys, a lot of people wouldn't be into any sort of Indie or Alternative music. I mean one of my best friends is going to their concert on Tuesday night, and as far as live bands go, I think the Keys are pretty good. It is okay if you don't like their new stuff, it is okay to HATE it, or even disrespect them, but WHY would you? I mean like Claude said, there new albums require a different taste, one me and Tigers share apperently. I love them and I don't care what they do, like make top 40 singles, as long as I like their music in the end. AC and "Becoming Popular": I really don't like it when we talk about AC selling out, I mean MPP wasn't that much like modern pop music. I have had at least ten different people, all which like pop music, say MY GIRLS was trash. That alone makes me think anyone outside the ALternative/Indie genre will be turned away from AC in the short run. I wouldn't mind a "poppy" record like MPP as long as AC progresses their music and their sound like they have done in the past. I mean we really should take a step back and realize AC is not a band to talk about "selling out". Record Labels: Get money, stack paper, and make bank. I mean they are doing what is best for their companies and for themselves, it is only human. I do however think with the amount of money NOT being made with CD's and MP3's due to pirating and streaming will hurt the record labels eventually. Keep record stores alive (coming from a guy who hasn't been to a record store). MPP: I loved it, just my opinion Bros! As we tigers said "Worrying about selling-out just isn't constructive". Hope you all have a great day, I need to go make a movie. Peace, out!
Hey, did we want to discuss this any further? The power of language to invoke emotions (mainstream, sellout) or the parameters on word usage here? It's really painful when others diminish the potency/reality of something we care about. Calling AC sellouts hurts us to hear. It's a valid subject that comes up again and again here. I can assure you this: those words stop getting used or having any meaning when you get older. Oaken, do you agree? (I think you are an adult, too)
I agree. It's not being a "sell out" that I fear from some of my favorite artists, its when they put out material that, even for them, would be second rate in years past. So, as long as an artist (band, writer, painter, director, etc) does something that he/she/it/they are glad to stand by, something that pushes their own aesthetic to either something new or something they can be proud of, then that's great. And if the product ends up being mainstream simply because many people find out about it and begin to like it, good for the artist. It's a damn fine thing when people who are good at what they do get paid for the joy they've brought to their fans.
I am so pleased to be on a board with you, Oaken.
Sorry one last post which you new people have not heard yet: To most of the English speaking planet, "hipster" is a type of ladies underpants. That's all.
Thanks, Wini! Likewise.
I love all you so damn much for being so insightful! That post was what I wanted to say, but I didn't have the skill or wisdom to say it. I'll give you a cyber congratulations! >-
We are proof that growing is awesome (older, etc.) All of Us!
I want to be a youngin'! Or at least get old and act young, like riding on shopping carts through the aisles at Target in my 30's.
Does the parking lot of my grocery store count? Then plan on doing it into yor 40's!
Yay! anywhere is fine btw.
I don't really have a lot to add to this discussion that hasn't been said. I agree with a lot of the things that Peacey said. I just want to say I also am very happy how insightful and considerate everyone here is. And hi tiggles!
gotham sounds a lot like mgmt.
^woah, just realized this. thats crazy
I noticed that when I listened to Gotham too.
Can someone tell me when MGMT is releasing a new album? because I am dying here. I cant listen to Congratulations and OR anymore.
"In January 2012 MGMT confirmed in an interview with Intercourse Magazine that they had started work on the album. VanWyngarden stated that he has written five songs. On February 27, MGMT began recording the album with Dave Fridmann in his Tarbox Road Studios. In March 2012 Andrew said that they will perform new songs on their upcoming shows in Latin America. On March 30, the band premiered a new song, "Alien Days", at a show in Bogotá, Colombia."
I listened to both of those albums everyday for almost 6 months, before I started liking AC. Then I was done with it but Electric Feel and Flash Delirium are still amazing. I just cant anymore though. I dont understand why they took such a ridiculously long world tour. There should have been some sort of long interval to write more music or make an EP. I know they made that LateNightTales thing (which I have), but they need to make more music.
They took a ridiculously long world tour cause they're ridiculously popular for an indie band. I mean, even some of my Christian acquaintances who listen to Hillsong and whatever crap listen to MGMT. They're making albums every 2-3 years, which is not band. At least they're not like The Radio Dept. An album/EP every 4 years if you're lucky. Also, this is an informative article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MGMT_(album)
Yes, I understand. I am just frusterated at the lack of MGMT. I am not saying they are lazy or anything with creating music. What I wrote was poorly worded. Forgive me.
No need for an apology! I was just providing a rebuttal, and I definitely understand the frustration of bands not releasing music. I used to be a huge fan of Arcade Fire and they NEVER release music. I'd given up hope and then The Suburbs plopped onto my lap a few months later, to my WTF reaction.
AC haven't released a TRUE LP in 3.5 years, a long damn time, but Tomboy, KEEP Cashette, Down There, HBK, ODDSAC, TGG, and Honeycomb/Gotham have all made up for the drought.
AC (and many other bands) are always making music in some form. This is probably a bad analogy but, it's like artists wouldnt stop making art for months or years just because they didnt have to. Their art becomes them and it their way of expressing theirselves. they make art happy or sad, rain or shine and the make to make it. artists get the urge to make art. its just that when bands go on tours for awhile and dont produce anything it can seem like they lost their creativity or drive. that may not (and I hope not) be the case with MGMT but that is what it seems like.
what is art? are WE art? IS ART ART garter belts!

After 80 years, the copyright on the "Happy Birthday" song has been reversed, freeing up its commercial use. Thank god.
The legal battle itself took years, but a federal judge ruled Sept. 22 that the song's music and most probably the lyrics, existed before Patty Smith Hill and Mildred J. Hill claimed ownership.
The Los Angeles Times has more information:
In a stunning reversal of decades of copyright claims, the judge ruled that Warner/Chappell never had the right to charge for the use of the "Happy Birthday To You" song. Warner had been enforcing a copyright since 1988, when it bought Birch Tree Group, the successor to Clayton F. Summy Co., which claimed the original disputed copyright.
Judge George H. King ruled that a copyright filed by the Summy Co. in 1935 granted only the rights to specific piano arrangements of the music, not the actual song.
'Happy Birthday' is finally free after 80 years," said Randall Newman, an attorney for the plaintiffs in the suit, which included a group of filmmakers who are producing a documentary about the song. "Finally, the charade is over. It's unbelievable."
There is a bit of sadness that goes along with this happy news.
Since the copyright to use such a common song was so expensive for movies and television, writers have been creating fake happy birthday songs for decades. And they're usually wonderfully terrible.
Happy Birthday Alternatives in Film and Television from Free Music Archive on Vimeo.
But it was also really distracting. Characters would sing some weird-ass song and you'd just know it was because some record company's gotta get paid.
This was also the reason that restaurants sang you crappy, crappy songs on your birthday instead of the real deal. Now you won't every have to hear some fake, semi-offensive Italian approximation at Olive Garden.
Our long national nightmare is over.

Please join us as Jacqueline shares the life, ministry and inspiration of her childhood friend, fellow MU student and Maryknoll Missionary, Sr. Carla Piette. Sr. Carla was guided in her work in South America and Central America during the often dangerous and turbulent 1970's and early 1980 by a love of the poor and the oppressed, as well as her deep desire to live as a companion of Jesus.

6) Third Week Group: One of the hallmarks of Ignatian Spirituality rests in the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius in which Ignatius teaches us through recommendations in prayer, meditation and contemplations on scripture, to know, love and follow Jesus more closely in our daily lives. During the Third Week of the Spiritual Exercises, Ignatius invites us to join Jesus as intimate companions during the very human experience of His suffering and death in the Passion. It is in following Jesus closely on this path that we also discover how to be more personal, intimate and present in our own suffering and in the suffering of others. Even in His walk towards death, Jesus teaches us to love more deeply, live more freely. Please join us as we create a faith community of companions willing to follow Jesus more closely and intimately this Lenten season. All faiths welcome. Space is limited.

Contact Mike Hogan at 288-5059 or firstname.lastname@example.com to arrange a meeting to discuss your desires for a Faber companion.
13) Clearness Committee: The Quaker tradition offers a means of discussing God's will for a particular concern through our deepest and most authentic desires by seeking clearness in our thoughts and emotions. The one requesting a Clearness Committee can choose a few trusted friends (or after consultation, the Faber Center can gather helpful people) who, in an atmosphere of prayerful quiet, ask questions of the focus person only for the purpose of assisting that person to find clarity.
14) The Spiritual Exercises, the 19th Annotation: St. Ignatius recognized that many people cannot devote an entire month to silence and prayer without interruption and suggested a modification for those who would commit to some time for solitude, prayer and reflection each day for a period of six months to a year. If you are interested or want to learn more about the 19th Annotation, contact Mike Hogan at 288-5059 or e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com

Women and children suffering from domestic abuse will be getting less help thanks to the latest round of state budget cuts.
Women and children suffering from domestic abuse will be getting less help thanks to the latest round of state budget cuts.
As part of a mid-year budget cut, Gov. Bobby Jindal's administration announced earlier this month, the state Department of Child and Family Services slashed its contracts for domestic violence services by more than 21 percent.
That means less money is flowing to places such as The Haven, a shelter and counseling service that serves Lafourche and Terrebonne parishes.
"We're losing about $50,000, from the latest figures we've been giving," said Julie Pellegrin, The Haven's director. "That will cut 30 percent from our shelter funding. It's a pretty significant drop."
Because the cut comes in the middle of the fiscal year, cutbacks need to happen before July, giving groups less time to "spread out the damage."
Pellegrin said The Haven will have to drop one full-time position and one part-time job. The group has 14 employees.
From January to October of this year, The Haven had answered 879 crisis calls and provided shelter to 195 women and children.
Pellegrin said the cuts wouldn't immediately prevent The Haven from sheltering abused women and children in emergency situations. "If there is somebody who is being abused and they need someplace to go immediately, we can still be that place for them," she said.
But The Haven will have to cut back on other programs it provides, such as outreach, education and intervention programs.
By October, the group had held 237 group meetings for women and 179 group meetings for children. It also coordinated more than 500 violence-prevention sessions and provided 1,080 hours of individual counseling.
Those numbers will all be smaller next year because of the cuts.
"The things that will be cut are those things for people who don't need an emergency shelter," Pellegrin said. "It's the counseling for people who have been through abuse that will be cut and our school-age programs to prevent violence from happening in the future."
Other Louisiana shelters might see more severe problems, according to a news release by the Louisiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
Some shelters elsewhere that rely more on state money will have to make drastic cuts, eliminating shelter beds and possibly even closing entirely in some places.
"No one has yet been able to calculate what cuts this deep will look like," said Beth Meeks, the coalition's executive director. "While we certainly expected to share in budget cuts, this level of cuts is devastating and potentially dangerous for the women and children that need our services."
Meeks said the cuts mean volunteers and donations to local programs are especially welcomed.
If you'd like to volunteer or donate to The Haven, you can find contact information on its website, havenhelps.org.

Family voice plans, in which multiple users share cell phone minutes, have been a staple of the mobile wireless business for years. Unfortunately, family plans for data are still mythical unicorns, but that may be about to change.
On Monday at the CTIA Wireless trade show in New Orleans, the CEO of AT&T Mobility told CNet that his company has decided how a family data plan would work:
The company has a firm hold on what type of plan it will offer and intends to offer one soon, said Ralph de la Vega, CEO of AT&T's mobile business, in an interview with CNET here yesterday. A family data plan would allow consumers to buy one bucket of data, which can be used by multiple devices, a move industry observers believe could spur the sale of non-traditional cellular devices like connected tablets.
"I'm very comfortable with the plan that will be offered to our customers," de la Vega said on the sidelines of his company's home security and automation event at the CTIA Wireless trade show.
De la Vega would not say, however, when this would happen or how much it would cost. But competitive forces would seem to indicate it will be sooner rather than later.
Last month, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam told analysts during an earnings conference call that his company would offer family data plans by mid-summer of this year. And in March, a screenshot leaked that may show a tool that could be used by Verizon customers to calculate shared data usage.
Family data plans could have several impacts on the wireless industry.
Carriers hope it will goose sales of tablets and other non-phone devices that use broadband connections and may carry contracts. Adding a tablet to a shared data plan would feel less onerous than shelling out for a separate plan.
And shared data plans would simplify the online lives of families. If you've got, say, four people on a plan and one of them is a heavy data user, having a shared bucket of minutes might help reduce overage charges.
Whether a family data plan could actually reduce monthly phone bills depends on how pricing is structured. With voice minutes there are some savings, but the carrier benefits because voice plans – in combination with the fact that calls between family plan members usually don't count against minutes – make it difficult for customers to switch. If you're getting a discount because you're on a shared plan, it's hard for an individual member to jump ship to a new carrier where he or she will pay full price for minutes.
And it's often hard for an entire family to switch carriers at once because the members' phone contracts are unlikely to expire at the same time.
Shared data plans would increase this lock-in effect if they offer significant savings, and competition between the carriers would hopefully produce those savings. Hopefully, we'll find out how this will work in the coming months.

Welcome to the World of Kundalini Yoga
|"Kundalini yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan is a scientific technology for happiness. It extends the brain to imagine Infinity in its totality; then it is a gradual process to work for that experience. Every movement is scientifically originated, structured, organized and projected. This is a discipline in which there is nothing but continual enrichment, fulfillment and success. When practicing Kundalini Yoga, your inner power is awakened to unite with the Universal life force, empowering you with awareness beyond the ordinary. This awakened state gives you the capacity to expand your perspective and experience each day with increasing inspiration, wisdom and joy." -Harijiwan

Why Take Teacher's Training?
By Harijiwan
Most of the world's religions and mythologies point toward the year 2012 as a major turning point in our planet's history. We are in a time called "between the worlds," the countdown years to a New Age. Those famous seers of time, the Mayans, end their calendar in 2012. It is the time when our solar system and all its planets enter what is called the Photon Belt. Photons are sources of light, similar to thought, they occupy no volume, have no mass. Photons are being emitted from the center of our galaxy. As a solar system we are entering a light realm, a higher frequency purification and cleansing zone. And as our planet moves through this photonic energy band this highly ionized, light photonic energy has severe consequences for any individual who is toxic with negativity and darkness. The planet enters this space around every 13000 or so years. Our sun's energy is affected, as are the electrons that comprise everything around us. This change in galactic light affects our DNA, which will receive and transmit differently. It is no exaggeration to say that all we have known is to be different. We are literally moving into a different time/space continuum. And this change requires different ways of living. Different ways of being. Different ways of relating.
Yogi Bhajan has told us that "The Age of Aquarius is on our head whether we feel, know, understand or not. Past is going to be obsolete, and teachers of the Age of Aquarius are going to help humanity."
You will learn how to function within this changing global energy field. You will learn basic care and operation of the human apparatus. How to pay attention to and maintain your glands and nervous system so they function at an optimal level. How to check daily for the inner balance of elimination, absorption, rest and activity. Have an experiential understanding of the interrelationships of mind, body, emotions and spirit. This training will give you an awareness of the sensitivity everyone is going to need to enter into this New Age.
We live in a polluted environment, in a society that emphasizes drugs, short-term crisis thinking, and which ignores the inner dimensions of a person. This orientation has created a world of great suffering. The subconscious plays a major role we are not aware of in how we experience life. We are looking to the past for answers for today and tomorrow, not realizing that the past exists only as an experience we have in our subconscious minds. We become attached to these imprints and this prevents us from moving forward in life. In Kundalini yoga we have the technical know-how to deal with the subconscious mind on both an individual and societal basis. We learn how to clear it, how to stop the repetition of past errors and the re-living of past pains. These are essential teachings for this time.
The first student you will have as a teacher is yourself. And as the light of one candle can light thousands of candles, you must first illuminate your own consciousness. Awaken your own awareness. Then you can help. You can serve. You can contribute. You can do your part to help humanity enter this New Age and make the dream of world peace a reality.
Teacher Training is about technology—the technology of personal change: How to achieve strength, clarity and grace. It is systematic, comprehensive, and complete.
Our sincere prayer is that we can give to you what was given to us—teachings that have made our lives bright and prosperous, filled with wonder and adventure. Our only request is that you too share these teachings and help each other as we travel on this galactic journey together.
Radiant beings are awake. Radiant beings create their own light and link their individual light with the timeless light of wisdom that flows through the Golden Chain. We invite you to join this Golden Chain of Teachers.
Take a deep breath. Listen to your soul. Take this opportunity.
You deserve this. Many await your help.

#3rdYearBlogaversary #CMBIs3 #CMBs3rdYear
Published by CMB
We're Nigeria's Most Dynamic Leadership Blog, also recognized internationally. We propagate the inculcation of leadership among Nigerian youths especially. Since inception in 2013, we've been propagating the inculcation for World Youth Leadership, partnering with individuals and organisations passionate about calibrating the minds of young people towards resourceful ends. We ask, "Why should 'Leaders of Tomorrow' be political thugs, terrorists, kidnappers or drug-addicts of today?" We're bent on creating a world where youths will be given huge responsibilities, not doubting their competence. CMB was initiated by ROC (Raphael Olufisayo Champion) Akomolede, who's Africa's Youngest Leadership Blogger, a Leadership Coach, Public Speaker, Youth Activist, Gospel Rapper etc. ROC was appalled by the level of decadence exuding from teens and youths, and took it upon himself to do something. Since he turned 17, he's been active in leadership activities, earning him numerous commendations and endorsements from prominent individuals like Marsha Wright, and thriving organisations like African Leadership Magazine (UK) and many more. Marsha Wright publicly endorsed him on Twitter as a 'Social Writer To Watch' and 'Thriving Person To Follow ASAP'. African Leadership Magazine (UK) also commended his passion for writing. You can find his story here. OUR FOCUS: Enlightening people that we were all created to be champions. Correcting our flaws. Dishing out meals meet for wannabe champions' and champions' at large. These three are aimed at bringing out the "Winner's Inner Stuffer" in us. On our blog, you get to see people who dared to daze the world, how they did it and how you can do better. In life, we must learn not to flee when we encounter mountains, but go over them – champions don't retreat from the battlefield. No, they do not. We thank you for being here. If you and the others didn't come, this would be an effort in futility. Now that you have started with us, no, do not go back. View all posts by CMB
