Home Improvement Tips All Homeowners Should Know
A significant percentage of homeowners are reluctant to take on home improvements. They fear the mess, expense and time that goes into it. Knowing beforehand what the project entails can help to alleviate any concerns one may have. In most cases, reading a few ideas can help a any home improvement oriented project flow smoothly. These are some tips that should put you on the right path.
Take the time to make every project your own, instead of simply copying what someone else has done. A home improvement project gives you a great opportunity to add personal flair to your living space.
Apply weather stripping to doors and windows to conserve energy in your home. This is an inexpensive material purchased at the home improvement store, and seals out exterior cold and hot air to stabilize inner temperatures so that your heater and cooling systems do not need to work as hard. You will notice, too, that you can cut down on the drafts that you feel on those chilly nights.
Coffee Table
Use something unique as a coffee table instead of buying one made for the purpose. An old trunk or chest look great in the center of a living room and provide storage, also. Place some accessories and books on the top and it will make your coffee table stand out. You can even give it a country feel by including some teacups and a tablecloth.
Using the proper tools can mean the difference between a successful home improvement project and a disaster. When you are using the right tools, it will be easier to get the job done properly. Knowing how to use those tools is just as important as having the right tools.
Do not underestimate the amount of effort that your project will require. Sit down and take the time to figure out everything that needs to get done. Additionally, it is worth your time to line up a second opinion from a professional. A pro can determine whether or not your list is complete and feasible. By knowing everything you have to do, you can save tons of money.
Planning Ahead
Proper planning ensures that your home improvement project will go more smoothly. Not planning ahead can make decisions more difficult and could cause you to make poor decisions as you are rushed to make them. Planning ahead will help the work go faster and will keep last minute costs to a minimum.
In some houses, basements often lack natural lighting. This means the lights you install must be highly effective. If you are lucky, your basement walls may extend above ground level. If you basement is like this, install several windows to allow the maximum natural lighting in to your rooms.
A simple and affordable home improvement to make is to install peepholes in your doors. Do it so you can safely see who is outside your door. Although some people will hire a professional to do this, adding a peep hole is actually one of the easiest improvements out there. The only thing you must do is some drilling! Having a peephole will take away the anxious feeling whenever there is a knock on your door, because you will have the luxury of seeing who is on the other side.
A well-informed homeowner does not need to fear home improvement. Good tips like the ones in this article, will help keep projects on-time, under-budget and hassle-free. Home improvement education done on one's own can conquer fears and help guide the homeowner to simple projects that make their home more useful, attractive and valuable.

New album released: Chrysalis
I'm happy to announce that my new music album, Chrysalis, has been officially released to all major digital distribution systems, including iTunes, Amazon, and Spotify. It's still taking a bit of time to populate some of those sites, but it should be available within the next couple of weeks.
This album was quite an interesting process for me. After Event Horizon was released in the summer of 2012, I took about a six month break from anything involving music. No guitar, no keyboards, no songwriting, nothing. I was honestly pretty burned out after a long and frustrating process of getting that album written and recorded, and I didn't even know if I wanted to keep moving forward with music because I just didn't get the enjoyment out of it that I used to.
But in early 2013, I decided to just put some random ideas down on tape, mostly just recording chord progressions or riffs without words into my cell phone's audio recording feature. I didn't expect them to go anywhere, but I figured I'd collect them and see what happened. To my surprise, I ended up with about 25 really solid ideas for songs, recorded in bits and pieces over the span of about 8 months, from January to August. Once I had those pieces, I went through them and figured out which ones would make the most sense to expand into fully fleshed-out songs, and I went into the recording studio in September to start piecing them together. Two of the songs on the album – Hyacinth and Caught Between – pre-date the main recording sessions by several months, but thematically fit very well within the confines of the album. The writing of one song on the album dates all the way back to 1997, with pieces being added to it over the past 15 years.
I also ended up using a brand new recording rig, which honestly scared the crap out of me. The previous two albums had been recorded exclusively on a desktop PC using Sonar, and now I was moving to a Mac-based rig with Logic as the primary DAW. I had no clue what I was doing with Logic, and was apprehensive about having to learn along the way.
Fortunately I managed to figure it out fairly quickly, and the bulk of the album recording took place from mid-September to early November. Production followed immediately after, and the period from November to February was spent in post-production and fine-tuning the tracks and the album as a whole.
You can purchase the album on iTunes here, or on Amazon here. You can also purchase the album on CDBaby, which is my main distributor, by clicking here. I do keep more revenue through CDBaby sales, but it's really up to you.
You can also preview the album on Spotify by clicking this link or by listening to the playlist below:
Also, here is a brief press kit that I included with the initial digital distribution:
Since his first official CD release in 2005, Galen Clavio has crafted a musical catalog that exhibits incredible musical depth and range. Clavio's stylistic shapeshifting has always been in pursuit of his muse, and 2014's "Chrysalis" is no exception. Through 14 diverse tracks, Clavio invokes a wide range of past and present styles, while bringing his own unique lyrical perspective to the musical scene. Featuring guitar, piano, synthesizers, bass, and vocals all performed by Clavio, this new album provides listeners with an experience that is easily accessible yet wrapped in mystery.
"I think that 'Chrysalis' is the album I'm most proud of," says Clavio. "It encapsulates a lifetime of being a student of music, while also managing at the same time to give a sense of where my mind and heart are currently."
We had a chance to talk with Clavio about his latest work, and get his thoughts about where this album sits within his musical canon.
Q: Congratulations on the upcoming release of your newest album! You chose the name "Chrysalis" for this album. Is there a reason why?
GC: I felt that Chrysalis really represented what I went through as this album was being made. It's a metamorphosis — it has been that way in almost every aspect of the process. I completely changed my writing style for this album, and completely changed my recording process as well. You add that in with a healthy amount of personal, lifestyle change, and the name just made a lot of sense.
Q: Would you say that change is the dominant theme of this album?
GC: In a way, yes, although it's more than just change. It's a realization of some things ending and other things beginning, and how sometimes what we're afraid of losing isn't anywhere near as good as what we stand to gain in the resulting vacuum. There's also a few running threads through the album about rejecting societal norms and enjoying yourself and your surroundings regardless of what people may say.
Q: You've talked a lot in the past about your various musical influences. Which of those influences do you feel come through most strongly on this album?
GC: Good question! It's hard for me to nail down the specific influences because I listen to so much music, and sometimes the influence isn't directly recognizable. But for this album, I'd say a big influencer was Beck, particularly in integrating some of the more synth-heavy elements. Led Zeppelin definitely fed into the process, particularly on "Holy Lion" and "Computer Love", as did mid-70's Rolling Stones. Other bands or artists that I hear when I listen to the album include Wilco, Traffic, Shuggie Otis, Blitzen Trapper, Neil Young, and Ryan Adams.
Q: What was the writing and recording process like?
GC: Long and occasionally frustrating. The bulk of the album was written in early to mid 2013, although one of the songs dates back a good 4 years before that. Recording took place almost entirely between August and November 2013, with production taking place in December 2013 and January 2014. I think the frustrating thing for me was really trying to dial in each of the individual tracks and make the album a consistent sonic experience. Hard to do when you're doing everything yourself at home, from the initial recording to the production and mastering, but I feel happy with the results.
Thanks for listening, and if you have any questions or comments, I'd love to hear from you.

With the state of the current economy many consumers are caught off guard by late payments or owed collections to their credit. Unprecedented economic conditions do not have to dictate your ability to rent a home. It is certainly possible to rent a home with bad credit, meaning below average or even low credit scores. Often times landlords understand these current market hardships with an attempt to balance the cost of rent accordingly. Americans did not plan on getting laid off from their jobs or taking cuts in their hours but the current economic condition has affected people from all over. Today's economy makes it realistic for a person or family to rent with bad credit, but preparation is the key to succeeding.
If you do have bad credit, being able to explain your financial issues can be the difference between succeeding in renting a home or being declined. Landlords will oftentimes look back at your payment history with things such as insurance, utilities, and phone bills, so having a plan of explanation can be very beneficial. Your plan can include the following items:
A list of references such as former landlords can help.
Having a co-signer with good credit to assist you.
A detailed letter explaining any negative marks on your credit.
You can offer to pay a larger deposit or a higher rent payment.
Retrieve a copy of your credit report so you can more fully understand issues with your credit.
You can offer to improve the quality of the property with landscaping, painting, cosmetic repair, etc.
You can show the prospective landlord your current living place, showing them that you will take great care of their property.
The best advice is to just be honest. A landlord will respect you more if you are straight about what your financial condition is. People know when you are trying to hide something. They will respect you more if you tell them the truth and have a plan laid out about how to address it.
The best piece of advice is to be honest and straightforward with a potential landlord. A landlord will respect their renter more if they can tell that they are dealing with an honest person, and hiding something can jeopardize the opportunity to rent. If you have solutions to your past credit problems then showing that you have a plan laid out is the best recipe for success.

Successful fostering of orphan lambs by non-pregnant ewes induced to lactate using exogenous hormone treatment
Six nonpregnant ewes were induced to lactate by an exogenous hormone treatment lasting 6 weeks. At the end of the treatment one alien lamb was adopted by each ewe. Each ewe was initially indifferent to the alien lamb and required only mild restraint to allow the lambs to suck successfully. Maternal interest subsequently increased and strong ewe-lamb bonding was evident by 80 minutes (n=1), 10 hours (n=4) or 24 hours (n=1) in different cases. The lambs required supplementary milk for 4-6 days while milk production by the ewes increased to adequate levels. Thereafter they were reared entirely by the ewes. Another four nonpregnant ewes were induced to lactate by a similar hormone treatment and were then hand-milked thrice daily for 23 weeks. One alien lamb was then removed after 10-30 minutes. The ewes were then injected subcutaneously with 5 mg of oestradiol-17 and were placed in fostering stocks. After a further 3-5 hours the lambs were re-introduced. Strong ewe-lamb bonding occurred during the subsequent 10 hours in all cases. All 10 lambs were reared successfully by these ewes until at least 3 months of age, when observations stopped. It was concluded firstly that nonpregnant ewes induced to lactate artificially will adopt and rear orphan lambs successfully, provided that additional milk is given to meet shortfalls during the first 4-6 days; and secondly that a 5 mg injection of oestradiol-17 may facilitate fostering of lambs by ewes in established lactation whether the lactation is induced artificially or not.

First-time novelist has been writing fiction since grade school
Over an empty cup of coffee at Joseph-Beth Booksellers and Bistro in Lexington, new author and Barbourville resident Melissa Newman fondly recalled the early discovery of her love of writing fiction.
As a child at Homestead Elementary School in Crossville, Tenn., Newman said, she had the irksome habit of knowingly sacrificing a letter grade to write short stories instead of assigned essays.
"For example, the assignment would be to write about what you did over the summer. And I would write a story about a doll coming to life in a toy store," she said.
Despite being a source of frustration for her English teachers, the stories typically earned Bs, docked 10 points for being off topic, but passing for being generally well written.
In December, at age 43, Newman's first novel, Sister Blackberry, was published.
Reviews have been positive. Sonya Jones, a University of Kentucky professor and an acquaintance of Newman, reviewed the book for the Somerset Commonwealth Journal.
"I have a very bad habit — and I do it with every work of fiction — where I read the opening and closing paragraph," Jones said. "If it doesn't get me, sometimes I won't read anymore. There are lots of things out there to read."
With Sister Blackberry, "I was very taken by the beginning paragraph. I am a fairly hard-to-please reader ... but I could not put it down."
Sister Blackberry is a mystery novel set in the fictional Rayus County, Ky. The book centers on Viola, an elderly woman known by her estranged family for telling tall tales. On her deathbed, Viola wants to tell her relatives a secret that has haunted her since childhood, one that her granddaughters are not inclined to believe because of Viola's penchant for storytelling.
The book's story spans three generations of women — from the 1930s, when Viola committed the secret act, to the present.
Jones said the book contains unusual plot twists and unconventional characters that could put off major publishing companies, which made the title ideal for Whiskey Creek Press, a small publishing house based in Wyoming.
"I have been a small-press supporter all my life because I think they tend to get the cutting-edge material," Jones said. "They are willing to take risks."
Printed and electronic versions of Sister Blackberry are available on Amazon.com and the publisher's Web site, www.whiskeycreekpress.com. Electronic copies are available at www.BarnesandNoble.com.
Physical copies can be found at the Mountain Advocate in Barbourville and will be available for a limited time at Joseph-Beth Booksellers in Lexington after Newman's book-signing Saturday.
Longtime southeastern Kentucky residents might be familiar with Newman's writing, despite Sister Blackberry becoming available for purchase only recently. Since 1994, she has been a reporter, editor or manager at five newspapers in the area.
"When you're a journalist, you have to do a lot of watching and listening," Newman said.
Jones said, "I think her background in journalism has helped her immensely as a writer. She has a terrific eye for detail and a way with dialogue."
Since 2008, Newman has worked as alumni relations director at Union College, her alma mater. She also is working on a second book.
Debra Womack, publisher at Whiskey Creek, said she thinks Newman's future in fiction could be fruitful. "Melissa Newman is ... an author who shows great promise for additional tales that will capture the attention of any reader fortunate enough to begin the journey," Womack said.

Are you Kin to the Bacon Families, the Philosophers?Anyone who is a Bacon is probably a descendant of the family dating back to Sir James Bacon of Friston Hall in Kent, England. James Bacon, born 1595 in London, Middlesex County, died 6 November 1649 in Burgate Parish, Suffolk County. It was his son, Thomas Bacon of Suffolk, England, who came to Virginia and settled in Westmoreland County. The lineage includes some interesting influential characters, such as Nathaniel Bacon of Virginia who organized Bacon's Rebellion against local marauding Indians, and was later killed for it by the Royal Governor, unwilling to act himself. Du ring a fight with the royal army, Jamestown as burned to the ground! Hmmm. No records were left for us genealogists. Then there is Sir Francis Bacon, Lord Chancellor of England, philosopher, statesman, scientist jurist, orator and author. He was the intellectual figure of his times. Historians surmised that he was, in fact, Shakespeare because no one else of the age could not have written such brilliant plays. This genealogy was tediously traced back to 1300, and is available to members in the "genealogy vault" of Georgia Pioneers

The Untapped Workforce: 4 Stats That Prove Disability Education Brings a Bright Future
It's been proven time and again how beneficial education can have on achieving your future goals; especially, when it comes to your career. But what about for people with disabilities? It turns out there is a great number of statistics pointing to disability education as a valuable tool for boosting quality of life and work.
Here are four such stats proving disability education creates a brighter employment outlook for people with disabilities.
The graduation rate
Enhancing and expanding disability education has a lot of room for growth. In fact, the high school graduation rate among people with disabilities is about 20 percent lower than the national average. Putting a larger concerted effort on helping more people with disabilities earn a high school diploma, through programs like the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), means more valuable and skilled members of the future workforce. The opportunity to improve and add on is there – the only way is up!
The graduate employment rate
Education has a huge effect on employment – there's no doubt about that. The same goes for disability education. Employment rates among people with disabilities nearly doubles just by adding a high school diploma to the equation. Never mind the fact that a college degree, such as a bachelor's degree, more than triples the employment rate. From diplomas to degrees, disability education is proven to vastly improve employment opportunities.
The academic performance
The environment in which a person with a disability is able to become educated can factor into future success, too. Numerous national studies have found that students in inclusive classrooms perform better on tests and grades, and adopt more positive classroom behaviors than those who are kept in separate schools or classrooms. Strong academic performance has a huge impact on future employment – success early on yields career success later on.
The pay rate
Academics have a large impact on future pay, as well. This goes for both people with and without disabilities. A person with a disability who has attained a high school diploma has an average wage of $22,966 per year, while someone with a bachelor's degree or master's degree earns $46,103 and $66,899, respectively. Making the time to encourage disability education can produce higher-quality careers and futures for a huge group of fellow citizens – it's the right choice.

How far should you go with a "good deed"?
My wife and I bought our first home together at Anglesea. Whilst most people at that age choose to spend their mortgage dollars on a house to be their primary residence, we chose to keep renting in Melbourne and use the bank's money to buy a holiday house! From a tax point-of-view it's an investment property, but we've always seen the investment primarily being one of lifestyle. Funnily enough it's proven to be both a sound financial decision and a sound life choice.
We've had the Anglesea house for over 10 years now and during that time it has always been available for holiday rentals. The house is listed for rent here!
Last week I took a call from a charitable organisation who needed some short-term accommodation for a 13 year old boy. They asked if they could rent our house. They couldn't tell us too much information about "their client", but at all times he would be accompanied by two supervising adults. My wife and I were nervous, but they gave an written undertaking as to any damage and they paid the full rate. We rented them the house for 12 days.
Yesterday I received a phone call from the Anglesea police. They'd been called out to our house at Anglesea and phoned to let me know. They told me that there was no cause for alarm.
When the initial call came through I was unable to answer it – no the police don't do outbound calls from 000, I didn't recognise the number – so the 30 minute period between listening to the voice message and being able to return the call was pretty nerve-wracking. But when I spoke to the Officer he told me that no-one had been hurt and as far as he could tell there was not any damage to the house. None-the-less he thought that I should probably check the house over the weekend.
I then called the charity and they explained that "the 13 year old had a golf club and wouldn't give it to the supervising adults, so they called the police".
OK, so reading between the lines, the kid has some issues and was threatening the supervisors.
A moral dilemma
I'm the first to admit that I've been fortunate in life: my parents were supportive; I've had good education and good life experiences; I'm happily married with beautiful healthy children; and together with my wife I've been able to build up some assets that mean we have a pretty good, albeit kids-work-hectic life.
The flip side of me having a fortunate life is that I like to "do my bit" for those who are less fortunate. Generally I've done this via monetary donations, but occasionally I've done things that can leverage my skills and/or network: I organised a Tsunami fund-raiser; I've done the Whitelion Bailout; I briefly helped an organisation I met through Goodcompany, for example.
I saw renting our Anglesea house to this charity, albeit at a commercial rate, as another example of "doing my bit".
Which would all be fine, except that we are now faced with the real possibility that "doing our bit" might end up costing us – potential damage, potential costs, potential effort. Even if there's no damage I am still worried. And when these guests move out of the house next week I am going to have to embark on the 4 hour roundtrip from Melbourne to Anglesea to inspect the property.
Would I do the same again?
I would genuinely like to help this charity. I have no doubt that they are trying hard to assist this kid and others like him. Most likely it is hard, intense work in trying circumstances. And most likely they would struggle to find short-term rental accommodation for these kids and their supervisors. Having helped out Whitelion, I know how hard it can be for these organisations to support these types of kids.
I could include this charity on the list of charities that my wife and I support with financial donations. But I could probably magnify the value of our support by renting them the house.
But I'd know that each time they were using the house I'd be worried – about the house, about our neighbours and about the potential effort that might flow from the rental.
It's a middle-class dilemma: I'm truly unsure about how far we should go with this good deed.

Our man Eric Lin is IM-ing from the scene at The Palace Hotel where three CEOs (from Palm, Microsoft and Verizon) have taken the stage to announce the new Treo smartphone.
The Treo has no name (like a U2 song). It's not called the 700w—yet.
- Multimedia and Exchange integration
- PowerPoint Viewer (Palm wrote its own MMS app, not using the one built into Windows Mobile)
- Exclusive to Verizon until mid-2006
- Photo speed dialing (press a photo and dial the number)
- Reject a call and automagically send text response (just like on new Series 60 phones)
- Rewing, delete or Fast Forward through voicemail with on-screen icons
- Available early 2006 (instead of late)
- Price will be higher than today's Treo (EV-DO radio is the none-too-believable excuse)
First moment of PR double-speak: "Bringing the best Palm experience to the Windows Mobile platform..." Riiiight.
First moment of ass-kissing: Palm CEO Ed Colligan says Microsoft has been "nice" throughout the process.
First moments of Bill Gates-ian geek speak: "Every professional will have a phone that connects up to their e-mail." Of the 130 million Exchange users, only 50 million have mobile e-mail. Over half are using RIM.
First moment I thought, 'you're joking, right?': When Gates says, "Software can unleash the power of EV-DO..."
First moment of sizzle without any steak: Verizon CEO mention of Digital Video Broadcasting—Handhelds (DVB-H).
Second moment of sizzle without steak: Possible GSM version of Windows Mobile phone will come out after the middle of next year.
First understatement of the day: Bill Gates: "The software intensity of the phone device is going to go up year over year..."
Final thoughts:
- The Motorola Q phone is coming out sooner, and the big question is whether Treo's office-enabled PPC software will be reason enough to hold off buying one (the Q is, after all, thinner and a bit sexier).
- Palm says that development of Palm OS and Windows Mobile is separate and will remain that way.
- Here's the full press release.
- UPDATE - Some video here.
[Thanks Eric!]

2017 Race Plan (Tentative)
2015 race plan
Training for an Ultra race while living in a 'flattish' city like NY is not easy. How do I train for hills? This is what I do once a week for hill training
1) Hit the gym's treadmill (mine is Life Fitness at YCMA Vanderbilt, midtown NYC)
2) Set manual goal climb at 1000 mts
3) Set inclination to max (15)
4) Set speed to 6 kmh and warm up for 3 minutes
5) Set speed to 7.1 kmh for a minute, down to 6.1 kmh for a minute
6) Repeat step 5 for next 37 minutes
7) Start gradually increasing to 7.2 to 7.5
8) Tip: If you haven't hit the 1000mts target within the hour, the treadmill will automatically stop at 60 min and let you start cool down. You can then increase the incliation and speed to still make it within next 5 additional minutes
Registered to Pinhoti 100m @ http://bit.ly/1sSNW2N
Below is my activities per week leading 2 weeks before the race:
2 sessions of spinning interval for 45 minutes + 20 min slow pace (10km\h)
1 session 10km run flat
1 session 1000mt climb run on treadmill @ 15% elevation in 60min
1 circuits alternating flat and hills
1 30km flat run from office to work
Amateur trail runner and occasional triathlete.

Sim Ant Easter Egg - Llama/Glen Campbell Joke
1) Open SimAnt.
2) Start a new game at the startup screen (it doesn't matter which).
3) On the Map/Surface View Window, click the 'mystery button' (the blank gray one) until a text box comes up that says "How many Glen Campbells does it take to eat a Llama?".
4) Let the text box go away (you can click if you don't want to wait), then SimAnt will play some of the short songs from the game to give you time to think. You can click while a song is playing to skip it and go on to the next one.
5) When SimAnt is done playing the songs, another text box will come up that says "GCs = EPs - 2 (or, Elvis Minus Two)". You can again click to make the box go away if you don't want to wait for it to go away automatically.

Good morning, Grand Strand. We've got some potentially good news as rain and wind from Tropical Storm Florence continue to affect the Myrtle Beach area.
The slow-moving storm, downgraded from a hurricane Friday evening, will continue to weaken as it moves further inland Saturday, according to the National Hurricane Center, which anticipates it will become a tropical depression by tonight.
Heavy rain is expected to continue all day, and the northern coastline of South Carolina is still under a storm surge warning, but the National Weather Service's latest flooding projections show less rivers forecast to reach major flood levels than previously thought.
Seven rivers in the Carolinas are still projected to reach major flood levels, including the Waccamaw River in Conway, the Pee Dee River in Pee Dee and Cheraw, and the Little Pee Dee River at Galivants River, according to NWS.
The Waccamaw River should rise to minor flooding levels Saturday evening before reaching record levels early next week. NWS forecasts that the river will rise about 3 feet higher than it did following hurricanes Matthew and Floyd.

Let me preface this post to say that I know my scrapbook pages are what keep me from not winning Artisan. I know it – it is just not my strength. That said, I was pretty proud of this page. I thought I'd done it well – kept it simple but used some tried and true stamping. The final result was a little different (I layered it one more time on some Brocade Blue cardstock) but it is pretty much the same.
This is an 8 1/2″ x 11″ page and the base layer turned out to be Brocade Blue and then it's layered with Ruby Red. I used My Digital Studio to do the journalling on the bottom.
Then, across centre is some Chocolate Chip which I punched with the Pinking Hearts Border punch and then in the centre is Very Vanilla.
I used the Contempo Alphabet and coordinating colours to stamp the title. This was hard and I used the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig all the way but I was happy to get it just right. I added some ribbon and punch embellishments also.
Under the photo, I took a large heart and paper pierced around it to leave a small impression of a large heart and then I went to town with a few extra little embellishments:
I cut out a heart using some denim and the Hearts & Brackets die, I added a little "x" stitch with linen thread. I also embossed a heart from I (heart) Hearts on Chocolate Chip cardstock using Chocolate Chip craft ink and cut it out. And lastly, I wove small strips of coordinating cardstock and punched it out with the small heart punch.
All in all, I was very pleased with this page and, by far, it was my favourite of the three pages I sent in! Thanks for stopping by!

Thee Michelle Gun Elephant – Gear Blues – 4/5
Rarely will a band make such a large impression on me so rapidly, and with a name that sounds as though each member randomly chose a word to use, it comes as no surprise that this band doesn't have English as their first language. Yes, you've already guessed it, hailing from Japan, their poor English simply serves as a source of amusement, with track titles such as 'Satanic Boom Boom Head,' and 'Free Devil Jam,' this is a punk rock album with all the attitude of the Ramones and the creativity of the classic rock bands that disappeared with the start of the 70's.
This album attempts many things, and pulls most of them off with ease. With a thick rasp, the vocals energetically layer a passionate range of aggression, with the catchy rhythm provided certainly not to be understated, but coming second to the actual energy used. In true garage rock style, it feels gritty and dirty, to be played in a leaky basement at full volume until the neighbours complain (and then a bit longer). The bass is heard, but spends most of its time working on the foundations, and letting the rest of the band proceed, making a noticeable – almost jazzy – groove from time to time (e.g. Hotel Bronco), he contributes more than most bass players in such a position.
The drums too succeed in contributing, with a good variation, not only between tracks, but also within them he can be clearly heard smashing the cymbals and providing plenty of fills to break up any monotony that may arise. But all of this comes in second fiddle to the impeccable guitar work; this is where my hat comes off, for he straddles a fine line, with a thick, deep and noisy distortion he lends his own brand of rhythm, with a plentiful repertoire of solo's, never sounding too muddy or unclear, he sets the pace for the track to be played. Whether that requires the riffs to be slow and sludge-filled, simplistically punk or all out fury, he nails it every time, and never fails to provide a toe-tapping riff that's sure to stick in your head.
In fact, the only real problem is that of longevity. Particularly towards the end of the album, it begins to feel as though their bag of tricks is running thin, and some tracks feel like filler. This however is offset by the sheer fact that every member clearly knows their instrument, and none are made to feel redundant. Even if you only listen to the first half, you shall be delivered a punk intensity that hasn't been seen for years. Japan may be a little behind on the times, but all that means is they haven't forgotten how things used to be done.
Highlights: Smokin' Billy, Satanic Boom Boom Head, Free Devil Jam, Boiled Oil

There are moments in life that leave us feeling… infinite. They come, fleeting in a heart beat, tugging at the corners of your jacket, childlike and full of wonder. The whisper of the wind carries them away just as fast as they came, and you are left, eyes open, body and soul touching the great unknown.
My spirit aches in their memory, my heart longs for them to remain.
As the earth begins to warm, I feel myself falling into rhythm with Springs harmony. The thaw awakening moments, allowing them grow and flourish, enveloping my mind.
A year ago life was very different… a year ago I lived two lives, stretched by thousands of miles, made whole in these moments.
Take a breath. Do you feel that? How the air is changing. It is warm, yet cool, smelling of life and earth, filling me with hope and wonder.
It has been three months since he left. But he is home for now and that is all that matters. We wander down the dirt road, past the lake, up through the hedges that grow, threatening to take over the path, untrimmed in the early Spring heat.
This is our secret place. Hidden from the cares and troubles of the outside world. We walk, hand in hand, our hearts saying what our lips cannot.
Heat burns in my lunges as I take a drag from his cigarette. The deck is full, everyone we love, cooling down in the late night, taking a break from the sea of bodies dancing inside.
Laughter ripples, sending shivers down my spine, and I am aware, every fiber of my being connected to this moment of life, love and happiness. I look around at the faces, smiling, present and full of hope.
He is by my side, if only for now and I know, if nothing else, that this is belonging, this is my community, these are my people.
Night has begun to feel familiar. His voice filling my lunges, the scent of lilac its company, floating in from the cracked window by my bed. He is two thousand miles away and I am here, buried beneath the weight of down and dark.
I cherish these moments, knowing the dawn brings a break in time, a distance in our worlds.
A soft breeze drifts through the window, the moon casts pools of light across my small room and I listen to his stories. As his voice comes to my ear it beckons me to sleep; to dream of seeing him again.

This project was a study of the development of armors from 8th century BC to 4th century AD. The project was mainly focused on the evolution of armors in Europe, for which a wealth of information was present and the use of armors was extensive. To fulfill the breadth of the project, we also broaden our research to some large cultures in the regions of West Asia. The designs, metalworking techniques, materials, and improvements of armors were the emphasis of this project. Fabrication of a replica of an armor was also undertaken using only the technique allowed by the most simplest of tools in order to simulate the ancients' way of armor making. A database in the form of a website was created containing all the information relating to this project.

Elegantly carved historic (puranic) stories are common in Tamil Nadu temples. The stories of Kannapa Nayanar are very easy to spot among the other puranic stories. This is probably the only depiction that most of us could make out, even without the help of someone. The story of Kannapa Nayanar (incident that happened in Kalahasthi) has been carved out delicately in the outer wall of the Thanjavur Periya Kovil and this blog post describes the story carved out in detail, as narrated to us by Sasi from "Walkwithus" during our visit to Thanjavur.
The Kannapar story carved in the Thanjavur Brihadeeswara temple reveals the passion of a king to narrate this story to future generations with the most intricate details. The video below shows Sasidharan explaining us the stone carvings of Kannapa Nayanar in Thanjavur Brihadeeswara temple.
The first part of the story carved in Thanjavur Brihadeeswara temple will show a temple set up in the midst of the forest (few trees) and the Kannapar offering prayers to the Shiva Linga. A sharp eye cannot escape the most intricate details in this figure – A typical Chola ekathala vimana temple structure, the balipeedam, nandi, the front facing tree with a lizard, monkey and owl alongside the leaves, thin depiction of another tree behind the temple to show its set up in the middle of the forest, Kannapar with his hair tied in a big kondai offering prayers to the Shiva Linga inside the temple. As the legend goes, Kannapar was an ordinary hunter and he had accidently come across a Shiva temple while he was hunting in a forest. The depiction in Thanjavur temple shows the surprised and delighted face of Kannapar signifying his happiness after coming across a temple of Lord Shiva in the middle of a forest.
Sasi added that Kannapar started offering the animals hunt down by him to the lord on a daily basis as a mark of his devotion towards him. The second stone carving of this story in Thanjavur Brihadeeswara shows Kannapar offering the உடும்பு (wild lizard) that was hunt down by him to the Shiva linga. Also, notice the hunter's dog, the flower garland of Kannapar adorning the Shiva linga carved out so delicately. As per Sasi, the temple priest who used to visit the temple to perform rituals used to get shocked with the flesh lying in the temple during his entry. So, he decided to come early one day and hide behind the tree to see what has been happening in temple everyday during his absence.
As per the legend of Kannapar, he would offer his eyes to a bledding shiva linga. The third and the last portion of the Kannapar story in Thanjavur Brihadeeswara shows that a hand appears from Shiva Linga to stop him as soon as Kannapar gets ready to remove his eye with an arrow . The third portion is a pictorial depiction to the fact that the mere action of Kannapar to offer his eyes to Shiva Linga without any second thought, moved the Lord and a hand emerged out of Shiva Linga to stop him and that a person need not necessarily remove his eyes to show his deditation towards the Lord. A closer look at this figure will also reveal the temple priest hiding behind the tree and watching the incident.
As Sasi explains in the video shown in this blog post, these carvings in Thanjavur Brihadeeswara temple clearly convey the fact that the story of Kannapar till the 10th century revolves around the fact that Lord Shiva was moved by the show of devotion when Kannapar got ready to remove the left eye. The later forms of the Kannapar story may possibly be an exaggeration to this version. Thanjavur Brihadeeswara has hundreds of such puranic stories carved all over its walls and even an entire day will not suffice to study the intricate carvings in every portion of Thanjavur Brihadeeswara temple. This temple is a legacy left behind by the Cholas, and it's in our hands to retain this glory and maintain this temple for all the future generations.

« Back to Papertrey's Stamp-a-Faire 2011
On the way home from the trip, I realized that I hadn't taken a single pic of just Nichole and me. However, when I looked at all the photos on my camera the next day, I was delighted to find that one of the sweet girls that I'd handed my camera off to, to snap some pics for me, had thought to zoom in and capture a couple shots of Nichole and me. Love! (Thank you so much for these photos, Dearie! If I knew your email, I'd have sent you a note to say thanks!)

TBS's Chip Caray and the network crew that is producing the Twins-Yankees division series struggled again during Game 2 Friday night.
When Minnesota's Joe Mauer sliced a flyball down the left-field line in the 11th inning, Caray called it foul. He made his declaration as if there would be no doubt of the fate of a ball that lands in a corner where the view from the booth is somewhat obscured.
Caray could have made it easier on himself publicly by saying that he was guided by the left-field umpire Phil Cuzzi's emphatic call, but would await the replay.
The replay quite clearly showed that the ball was fair. As his partner, Ron Darling, calmly described what happened, Caray said, "Wow! Not even close."
A more vigilant producer or director would have helped Caray by talking into his earpiece to tell him what the replay showed before airing it.
Mauer recovered by bouncing a single between short and second, which Caray wrongly described as being rifled, one of his preferred verbs. (I've learned that another one of his much-used words, fisted, is part of a Chip Caray drinking game.)
Back in the sixth, Caray prematurely crowned the Twins' Brendan Harris the game's hero for tripling in the game's first run. But the Twins lost in 11 innings and Caray had to dub the Yankees' Mark Teixeira the hero for his walk-off home run.
Twice, Caray awkwardly said that the Twins had left at least one runner on base in "every offensive inning tonight." Where did he learn his baseball lexicon?
Two incidents involving Alex Rodriguez illustrated TBS's problems.
Before the pitch that Rodriguez singled to score Derek Jeter to tie the score in the sixth inning, Darling said A-Rod was faced with a "Reggie Jackson kind of moment."
Darling exaggerated a bit, but he was emphasizing that Rodriguez was in a position to deliver an important hit. TBS seized on the R.B.I. single to trot out replays of Jackson's three home-run performance in Game 6 of the 1977 World Series.
It's hard to imagine that a game-tying single could be equated with Jackson's achievement. Tying Jackson's deed to a single almost debases it.
Three innings later, Rodriguez tied the score again with a two-run homer. But TBS cut away from his curtain call before he climbed the dugout steps to a bunch of fans and returning to see only the end of his salute to the multitudes.
The presence of TBS's four division-series announcing teams exhibits the perils of tossing together people who rarely, if ever, work together. TBS fields only one team through the regular season (Caray with Buck Martinez, Dennis Eckersley or Darling), then plays postseason matchmaker. Caray and Darling sound as if they're speaking from different booths. But Dick Stockton and Bob Brenly sound like decades-long partners.
Maybe next season, TBS will dip into the past when NBC added local announcers to its World Series crew, which lent the expertise of people more familiar with the participating teams than the national broadcasters (except when they were also the local voices). From the mid-1960s to the mid-`70s, fans heard Phil Rizzuto, Ned Martin, Lindsey Nelson, Vin Scully, Bob Prince, Chuck Thompson, Monte Moore, George Kell and Al Michaels augment the work of Curt Gowdy and Joe Garagiola.
Curt Smith, an expert on baseball television history, said in an email message: "I didn't like it when the networks usurped local-team voices, and I like it less now. By definition, someone who covers a team daily will know more about it than a network voice."
Such an arrangement this season might have brought Twins announcer Bert Blyleven (and former player) to the TBS booth at the Metrodome and (take your pick) David Cone, John Flaherty, Paul O'Neill, Al Leiter or Ken Singleton in the Bronx. Don Orsillo, calling the Red Sox-Angels series, happens to be a Red Sox announcer.
Should TBS go that route? Or should it go further back to the older practice of hiring one local announcer from each team in the series to form the network crew?

Cuban-Style Black Beans and Rice (Moros y Cristianos)
Why This Recipe Works
For our Cuban-Style Black Beans and Rice recipe, we sautéed the aromatics in a pan in which we had crisped some diced salt pork and rendered its fat; this gave the dish a rich backbone. Including onion, green pepper, garlic, and bay leaves in the pot with the rice as it precooked bumped up the flavor. Washing off the rice's excess starch helped prevent the grains from sticking to one another, and using an oven-based cooking technique ensured that the rice cooked evenly from top to bottom.

Our country like other countries needs to have quality efforts both in products and service recognized not only within organizations but outside. The quality of products and services needs to get exposure so the public is generally aware of the efforts achieved by individuals and/or organizations. The process of recognizing quality efforts must be defined with specific evaluation criteria. Creating mechanisms to recognize quality is important. Businesses and organizations must make sure that the process of recognizing quality does not become routine causing their value to be reduced. Another factor involved in recognizing quality achievements is to make sure that they are not merely a set of goals. Goals are great to have and quality principles and objectives should be a part o.
It is not enough to state you have a quality product or quality service to your customers, it must be proven. Companies need to recognize within their structure when employees exhibit quality characteristics in what they do. This can be accomplished from an individual level, team level, department level or division level. Regardless of which level is involved when quality targets are achieved they need to be recognized accordingly. Quality is something to be proud of and recognizing employees quality work makes them feel they are appreciated for the effort they provide to their company or organization. Recognizing quality achievements within a company is great but there are also measures society has in place to recognize quality achievements outside of Adidas Yeezy Kanye West Price
companies or organizations. These measurements in some instances are not part of an evaluation process but are efforts to recognize quality achievements through an independent organization.

Laboratory for Neuronal Circuit Dynamics
Our laboratory specialises on the technical development and application of light- and genetics-based functional imaging approaches to understand how behaviour emerges from the electrical activities of neuronal circuits. Using genetically encoded indicators, we pursue a mesoscopic imaging approach that bridges cellular and system levels of understanding.
Research themes
One of the key challenges in current neurosciences is to understand how the brain generates behavior and cognition out of the collective electrical activity of cortical nerve cells. The main research focus of our group is to address this challenge using a combination of approaches, including optical imaging in vivo and ex vivo, optogenetic manipulations, electrophysiology, and cellular and molecular biology techniques.
Using this multidisciplinary approach, we focus on several main research themes:
Cortical dynamics and behaviour
- Linking cortex-wide patterns of electrical activity with goal-directed behaviour
- Elucidating features of cortical circuit dynamics and information content
- Circuit plasticity
Neuropharamcology and Disorders
- Investigating the cortical mechanism of action of psychedelic drugs
- Imaging amyloid-B aggregation in the synapse
In addition we are committed to further understand and develop neurotechnology and optical imaging methods. Our current interests are:
- Exploring the effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation on cortical circuit dynamics
- Development and tuning of genetically encoded voltage indicator imaging

Random, weird and apparently verbose text about plastic models, 'mechs and gaming.
Mostly primed
I had thought that I'd start painting the interior of the tank yesterday evening, but I didn't get to. That's because the periscopes weren't attached (and therefore were unpainted) yet so I had to glue them in first. Not that the interior makes a horrible difference anyway, but It'd be nagging at me if I knew that the insides are untouched. Yeah, I'm the first one to admit that I'm lazy but I'm not that lazy.
Splish, splash
I'm currently working on priming all the random pieces. It's not particularly exciting, so there's nothing more to report right now.
Oh well, I relearned that if I keep my 'puter & co on at the same time with the compressor, there's not enough juice for everything. My video card say bleh and goes offline. Somehow I didn't remember that from the previous round of airbrushing.
And no, I'm not going move my modeling area away from the computer. I do so little airbrushing compared to everything else that it's not worth moving everything.

The last steps before basecoating
Issues with paintingI built the last few missing pieces to more or less completed state. When the muzzle brake of the gun has been glued, I can start basecoating the random pieces I have prepared. The outsides of the hull are obviously included, the wheelset and the track links, the artillery and all the small tools are simple, but what about the insides? Of course the end part of the PaK is going to be mostly white but what about the engine area? And the suspension system? I don't think there was any sort of a firewall to separate the engine room from the fighting compartment. Do I have to start scratchbuilding that? Himmel.
|I decided to use the aluminium barrel after all
Test-fittingOf course I had to try if the halves actually fit together, so I'd see what's coming. And if that the top- and bottom parts were compatible or not... it wouldn't have been the first time that at the critical moment I'd need to start fixing stuff.
|Yep, they do fit
Pics: Model Expo 2012 II
Lian, take a good look at this...Palikkatakomo's stand had other exciting things than just the Minecraft-Steve I mentioned in my previous post. These guys had built insane things, such as the largest modular city in the whole country (at least). Incredible, insane, but also cool. There was a lot more stuff being presented and going on than in the earlier years.
The first glimpse at the insane city
They had German tanks, too!
|A camo built out of lego, never seen that before
Smaller modulesI managed to take these photos stupidly with the glare of the early morning sun, I apologize for my uselessness. And that that I didn't realize it while I was taking the pictures, when I could've taken new ones to compensate. Maybe one can imagine seeing something from these?
The Moducity itself
|Servicing the crane
|Some mad person is diving in the middle of the swimming pool
|Even the Ghostbusters were around
|I noticed the Bluesmobile only after a lenghty chat
Some thoughtsTheir buildings were just insane. All kinds of tiny details and silly happenings were to be found all around and there was much, much more than meets the eye. Sometimes it took a few glances before a certain detail jumped out. At least I saw something even though I know that most of the fun stuff avoided my poor eyes.
As a practical example: I was looking at the bridge for a good while and thought it was pretty neat. Then I started chatting with the guys at the stand and kept looking around. At some point I suddendly realized that the car that's jumping over the bridge is the Bluesmobile!
Of course the earliness of the morning or the lack of caffeine in my system had nothing to do with my slowness ;)
The cities I built as a kid have absolutely nothing to do with these, but then again, this complex was built by quite a few people and you can tell. The complete set is hilarious and impressive altogether. Maybe the Palikkatakomo people come up with something even sicker next year?
Best of ShowWhile I was writing this I notice that the modular city had won the award for the Best of Show. Not without merit, if you ask me. Congrats! :)
