Pure PaleoMeal Protein (Hydrobeef)
Pure PaleoMeal® is a nutrient-dense meal supplement with complete protein, healthy fats, a very low glycemic impact, and nutrients predominantly in their bioidentical forms. It features HydroBEEF™, a highly concentrated beef protein sourced from animals raised in Sweden without hormones, and fed a diet entirely free of GMO grains, grasses, hay, and/or ensilage. The protein is produced through an exclusive hydrolysis and ultra-filtration process that enables the protein to be hydrolyzed or 'split' into a high concentration of functional peptides. Delivering protein in the form of peptides allows for easier absorption and assimilation.
Pure PaleoMeal® is the perfect choice to complement any meal that may be lacking in calories and nutrients, or as a quick, convenient, nutrient-dense snack. It is available in chocolate and vanilla flavors, and is sweetened with stevia leaf extract.
Made with non-GMO ingredients.
Pure PaleoMeal® contains HydroBEEF™, a highly concentrated, pure bone broth protein isolate, produced through an exclusive hydrolysis and ultra ?ltration process. HydroBEEF™ contains both complete and collagen proteins that are naturally found in beef. Delivering these proteins as peptides allows for better absorption and assimilation.

Geezer Announce Spiral Fires EP out Feb. 8: Premiere "Spiral Fires Part 1"
New Geezer? Don't mind if I do, and whilst engaging in the groove-rolling outer-thereness of Spiral Fires, maybe take a second as well to process just how far the Kingston, New York, three-piece have come since issuing their first album, Electrically Recorded Handmade Heavy Blues, in 2013. With guitarist/vocalist Pat Harrington as the sole remaining founder of the band, the trio have moved from a heavy blues style to an anything goes, slide-infused grit-psych jam band with one foot in traditional songwriting and the other dropped into a region of cosmic trippery that Spiral Fires brings to emphasis even more than 2017's Psychoriffadelia (review here). Working with labels like STB, Ripple, and indeed Kozmik Artifactz — who'll have the new EP out on vinyl following its Feb. 8 digital release — the band has grown into a stylistically amorphous, richly expressive outfit who are unpredictable and reliable in kind. The kind of quality you can rely on.
To wit, I knew I wanted to premiere "Spiral Fires Part 1" before I heard it, and after hearing it, knew I was right in getting on board for it. Spiral Fires continues to expand Geezer's reach in its two-part title-track and in "Darkworld" and "Charley Reefer," showcasing a shift in dynamic with drummer Steve Markota in the lineup with Harrington — who also produced — and bassist Richie Touseull. I had been expecting the band to turn out a long-player in 2019, and they may yet, but whenever that inevitable "next album" shows up, these songs give a righteous glimpse of where Geezer are at nearly a decade after getting together and where they might be headed from here. Uncharted space brought to earth with anchored, locked-in groove. You probably could ask for more, but you'd be a jerk if you did.
You can hear "Spiral Fires Part 1" at the bottom of this post in a lyric video provided by the band. Release info for the EP follows here, courtesy of the PR wire:
After recruiting Steve Markota as Geezer's new drummer in summer of 2017, the band knew it was now the peak time to refocus and start afresh. With gigs as their inspired motivation, over the following year or so the Kingston, New York heavy blues triad set about performing at multiple regional festivals in the U.S.. From the Doomed & Stoned Festival to the New England Stoner and Doom Festival, from The Maryland Doom Fest to the Descendants of Crom. Throw in a supporting slot for Acid King in Brooklyn and many other righteous shows, and a full year did bloom indeed.
All the while, a revitalized Geezer was writing and road-testing new songs. During that process, it became clear that one album was not enough to fully capture what was happening. An EP would be the foundation to set the stage for the upcoming full-length LP. Drawing inspiration from the vinyl version of the most recent Child EP, Geezer hooked up with Kozmik Artifactz to release their own EP in the same vein. Limited Edition, one color cover, black vinyl, no bells and whistles… just rock and roll.
The result is the mind-altering new EP, 'Spiral Fires'. A three-song collection edifying the embodiment of Geezer's quest for all things heavy, trippy, and groovy. Spiral Fires is the first passage in Geezer's new journey.
Guitarist and vocalist Pat Harrington on the new EP:
"Hooking up with Steve changed the band. For the first time in a long while, we had the ability to really take our time and see where the music would take us. Changes were taking place, we were traveling to new musical landscapes. Along the way, a flash of light would appear over the horizon, these songs are those moments… lightning in a bottle."
The EP was produced by Pat Harrington and recorded at Darkworld Studio in Kingston, NY, assisted by Engineers David Daw and Robert Kelly. Mixing was done by Matthew Cullen at The Cat Haus in Catskill, NY, with Mastering by Scott Craggs at Old Colony Mastering in Boston, MA. The Spiral Fires cover artwork is by Lee Fenyves, with design layout by Steve Markota.
Spiral Fires will be available on vinyl through Kozmik Artifactz in the very near future. Firstly, the band is releasing the EP for digital download and streaming through their Bandcamp page on February 8, 2019.

The Little Saskatchewan River 1 flows southward across the area, and at the time the photo was taken, the channel was full of water, but several boulder barriers across the stream can be identified 2.
The large scale of the photograph makes it possible to identify individual deciduous trees 3 and the rounded shadows they throw 4. Deciduous forest—here mainly aspen (Populus tremuloides) and bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa)—occupies wetter land on either side of the river channel 5 as well as small "draws" leading down to the river 6. Low-lying bushes—dark-toned but without obvious tree crowns— cover an area in the southwest 7, and patches of light-toned grass also occur 8. The latter should not be confused with land that has been cropped and which shows the linear patterns associated with cropping 9. A track leading down to the river 10 probably originates at a farm building off the photo to the east. Small dark spots in the northeast may be cattle 11.

About Me
|Chris Lee
We know of the sectarian violence in Northern Ireland between Roman Catholic and Protestants. Evil is not defeated by evil.
We know of the violence between Palestinians and Israel. Evil is not defeated by evil.
Not only between people groups but also between families.
Think of the long lasting feud between the two neighbouring families, the Hatfields and McCoys in West Virginia. Between 1880 and 1891, the feud claimed more than a dozen members of the two families. Truce was only agreed to in 2003.
You cannot overcome evil with evil. It just escalates the evil.
Romans 12: 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
Evil can only be overcome by good.
Today is the final week of the 40acts challenge and the end of our series looking at chapter 12 of Romans.
As we began to see last week, there is a transformation that goes on when we repay evil with good. Retaliation creates a vicious circle, but when we react to evil with blessing and kindness it starves the flame of anger to fuel it. Rather than trying to 'outdo' evil, we take away its power to overcome us – we in turn overcome it.
As we also discovered, following this teaching can be costly and may feel 'beyond' us. The only way to cope with this struggle is to look to our saviour's example, and reflect on what he did for us. Jesus' life and death are the ultimate illustration for us that good conquers evil. He went through the utmost evil on the cross. He was whipped, jeered at, spat at, stripped. Compare Isaiah 50:6:
I offered my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.
Abandoned by his friends; separated even from his Father in heaven. He faced it all without fighting back, with perfect patience and kindness, praying for his persecutors – dying an undeserved death in place of us. But that was not the end. Evil and death were defeated because, as we'll celebrate on Easter Day, he came back to life.
For some of us, the word 'evil' may seem extreme; something that we associate with terrible things that we see on the news, like the awful images from the war in Syria. But it's much broader and more prevalent than that, and something that we have to battle to 'conquer'. Paul explains this further in his letter to the Ephesians, 6:12:
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
If we're followers of Jesus, not only will we battle with our old sinful natures, but also the devil is at work, wanting to turn us away from God. However, we never need to fear because we know that the power we have in Jesus is so much greater than anything the devil can throw at us, as Paul reminds us in 2 Timothy 1:7:
For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self - discipline.
We have the same power living in us that raised Christ from the dead (Ephesians 1:19–20)! If we fully grasp that, we don't have to worry about the devil's schemes. And the best demonstration we can give of the power of the gospel is when we act with goodness in the face of opposition.
Jesus said turn the other cheek, go the extra mile, give more than is demanded.
Jesus' victory over death encourages us in the knowledge that we can conquer all that we might face in this life, because, no matter what, we have that promise. A few chapters earlier, in Romans 8:37–39, Paul famously writes:
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor thing s to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
In practice, it can be really, really tough to act with kindness and generosity, especially in circumstances where a truly atrocious evil has taken place. If you are facing any kind of situation where evil appears to have the upper hand, to be told to simply do good in return can sound trite and simplistic. We may want to even the score, get revenge, gossip to destroy the reputation of the person inflicting us pain.
In desperate situations, all we sometimes have is the knowledge of Jesus' love for us to get us through. That's why we have to cling to what is good (Romans 12:9). Paul is not preaching anything to us that he hasn't himself experienced – he suffered many hardships and imprisonments in his ministry.
There may be times when our own sufferings make us feel far from God, but when we fill ourselves up with his truth, we can receive comfort.
Some of us may be familiar with the story of the missionary couple Jim and Elisabeth Elliot. The two of them travelled out to Ecuador with a team of other Christian missionaries in order to make contact with an unreached people group.
[video clip]
It takes extreme courage not just to overlook and avoid reacting to evil but to actually counteract it with good.
The fact that Elisabeth continued to work with the tribe that killed her husband, speaks volumes of overcoming evil with good.
Jesus says to his disciples in Matthew 16:24–25:
'Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.'
To be able to pay back good for evil requires real sacrifice. It's putting to death our natural desires, which is a daily struggle and something that we can only do with God's help.
There are two important elements in the Elliots' story: attitude of mind and forgiveness.
Our minds
In the first week of this series on Romans 12 we looked at renewing our minds – taking on the battle there first. Paul also teaches on this in Ephesians 4:22–24:
You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Just because we know Jesus, it doesn't mean we will automatically respond as we should. It needs our participation: a putting on of our new selves. Paul points to the attitude of our minds specifically. Our thoughts are affected by what we dwell on. A good place to start might be reading through those verses in Isaiah about what Jesus faced for our sakes. By renewing our thinking, we then affect our actions.
Forgiveness is not just for the sake of the perpetrator but for our sake too. Unforgiveness eats us.
People forget that evil has a deadly power of recoil, and that those who resort to it always do so to their own hurt.[1]
And we know that in God's eyes there is no limit on the amount of goodness we should show, and no point where a line is to be drawn. Peter asks Jesus about this in Matthew 18:
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, 'Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?' Jesus answered, 'I tell you, not seven times, but seventy - seven times.'
The idea here is that it's not just a greater number of times than we would expect but that, as seven is the number that represents completeness in the Bible, when multiplied it represents an infinite number.
At some point in all of our lives, we'll have faced a situation where we had to forgive. And where the hurt is deep-rooted, it is not a one-time conclusion but a continual process of deciding to forgive again and again, despite our feelings.
Counteracting evil with good takes the burden from our shoulders and is the most poignant way we can grow in grace and become more like Jesus, because we know that there is nothing that we can do that isn't covered by his death on the cross. His forgiveness is deep enough for all our sins.
What this could mean for us…
In the last couple of weeks, we have focused on verses that are the most challenging to put into practice but are the most effective at showing Jesus to others. This is the spirit of 40acts – not that it's just 'nice' to do good things to those around us when we feel like it, but that in doing so we are actually overcoming evil. In living a generous life, we are conquering both our own self-centredness and the powers of evil that Paul speaks about. Each small act is an expression of a commitment to a generous life.
In Paul's first letter to Timothy, he encourages him to turn away from all the evil that surrounds him and to live differently:
But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith. (1 Timothy 6:11 – 12)
Even in our small acts of goodness, we are pursuing God and fighting the good fight.
Every time we act with generosity, and especially when we do so as a response to evil, we display Jesus to those around us. Has anyone noticed your acts and been intrigued? Use it as an opportunity to talk about our generous God.
Ever-present Lord, as we conclude our studies and reflections on 40acts and Lent draws to a close, prepare us to retrace the road to Jerusalem as Easter comes near. Help us, through what we have learnt from the example and words of the apostle Paul and others who have shown great courage in their witness, to live out our faith whatever the circumstances. Help us to cling and hold steadfastly to the knowledge of your love for us and to know just how costly that was to God the Father, who still shares in the sufferings of a broken world. We ask this in the power of the Holy Spirit, who is still at work to bring the whole of creation to its full salvation. Amen.

A little over a year ago, I packed up my 400-square-foot apartment in Santa Barbara, CA, made my way down the 101 for the last time, trekked over to Vegas for a night of gambling and then drove halfway across the country to move to my brand-new home: Toledo, OH.
Though leaving perfect weather and bike trips to the beach wasn't easy (and I'll admit, I did shed a tear when I left Hendry's Beach for the last time), the allure of a better job for my husband and cheaper cost of living was too much for the sun and the surf to overcome. So, off to the winter tundra we went — where we traded in our flip flops for puffer jackets and Trader Joe's for Kroger.


text: The design for these tiles was taken from the coat of arms of the du Verrier family, who are associated with the chateau. In fact they are described as leopards gules on a ground argent. The outline was copied onto Fimo, which was cut out and mounted, and then used to impress the shape onto the soft tiles. the resulting indentation was filled with slip, then scraped back when leather hard. These tiles did have a tendency to warp when drying. The technique is similar to traditional encaustic tiles. I am working on some drawings for traditional designs of dogs and mounted knights, derived from mediaeval cathedral floor tiles.

WSP's newly created Design Studio has unveiled a plan for what might just be the world's most futuristic-looking hotel. Brainchild of award-winning architecture practice Innovation Imperative, the eye-catching modular and sustainable hotel will feature around 42 suites in modular pods, as well as space for art and design exhibitions and fairs for global nomads and design-lovers alike.
An extension of Innovation Imperative's previous project the Tetra Shed modular office pod, the hotel will be located in a geographically stunning location, aiming to provide a carbon neutral autonomous structure with sustainable agriculture and forest management at its core. Current locations under consideration include Cape Verde, Norway, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, Andorra, Hungary and the UK. The first hotel location is to be revealed this summer with others to come.
A team of engineers at WSP is providing multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy services on the Tetra Hotel providing a proof of concept study.
Each 19 metre-high pod will feature multiple floors with the top storing a large bed set under a skylight while a shower will be located just below it. A third platform will feature a couch for entertaining, and just beneath it at the bottom of the pod there will be a secluded working area with a full desk. The hotel will also include bars, restaurants, spaces for markets, exhibitions and fairs that have been designed to attract and promote talented designers and creatives from around the world.
But the hotel is not just about being another pretty façade. With sustainability at its core Tetra Hotel has been engineered to be as low energy as possible with a view of making the building completely off grid and independent. As advised by WSP, the hotel will use local sea water for cooling and solar thermal panels for hot water heating among other green technologies. During the construction phase, the pods will be pre-fabricated and assembled on-site for speed of delivery and use the local rock as foundation for minimum environmental impact.
The hotel will be the first collaboration between WSP's newly created Design Studio and an award-winning architect. The Design Studio has been created by WSP's talented early career professionals as a portal for architects to get engineering support on their creative ideas, be they competitions, design features or just innovation ideas that need some engineering back-up.
Ross Harvey, technical director and project director said: "Tetra Hotel and WSP are combining their creative powers on an exciting project that aims to create iconic architecture in stunning locations globally. WSP's multi-disciplinary Design Studio initiative is undertaking a proof of concept study to enable early-stage client discussions. The solutions being investigated are founded on sustainability, renewable energy and achieving minimal environmental impact. WSP is proud to be involved in this project and looks forward to its future success."
Comments David Ajasa-Adekunle, founder of Innovation Imperative: "With a team of talented and progressive professionals, our collaboration has so far proved to be both fruitful and exciting and we all look forward to an ongoing partnership with WSP''

I love this camera. I was looking for a smaller camera to replace my Canon 5D Mark III for vacations and general walk-around. I've been a Canon shooter for over 15 years but I feel (at the moment) they just don't have anything worth owning in the mirrorless (I've owned and sold my EOS M). I started reading reviews of Sony mirrorless cams and saw the stats of this camera so I had to give it a shot.
This camera is great, fast and accurate (auto focusing is incredible). So very happy with my choice. I ended up buying it with the Vario-Tessar T* E 16-70mm f/4 ZA OSS (I only wish it was a constant of f/2.8 to get a bit more light) and the kit lens but I rarely take off the Zeiss.
Amazing Camera for the price
This camera is fantastic, especially for the price point. I have been using an A7 since January, and then bought this as a second body. The camera preforms in a very similar fashion to the a7, with a much faster motor which allows you take photos at 11fps. I would recommend this over an A7 for anyone who shoots sports, or is interested in having a very high quality compact camera.
The only reason in my opinion to get the a7 over the sony a6000 is for the full frame sensor and the enhanced DRO functions. Outside of those features i can hardly tell the difference at times. Also as an added bonus, the In camera applications work amazing!!!! I really love the startrail and time-lapse applications. Buy this camera!
Best Mirror-less Camera on the Market!
I've had the camera for several weeks now and I absolutely love it. Of course, making the jump from a compact underwater camera to a mirror-less interchangeable camera will be a big jump. But the camera's ability to shoot 11fps with continuous auto-focusing is great. Can't say enough how happy I am. I have the kit lens, so far so good. Best not to use in low light. I recommend buying the Zeiss 24mm, f.1.8 to accompany your a6000.
Expensive, yes but you won't be disappointed and you'll be thankful you forked out the cash. Great wide distance for landscape, but can also get up-close to your subject for some great portrait and street photography!
When weight and size matter
For our first adventure outside of point and shoot, this has been a stellar performer in most respects. Seeing several sites doing image quality comparisons, I agree that this provides quite a high level of IQ. We have noticed the softness of the AF system during the high speed continuous burst modes.
Attempting to capture pileated woodpeckers in flight in dimmer forest environments with the kit 70-210mm maxed out at f5.6 left many unusable images. The lens selection is expensive and limited, but adapters can be used to adapt nikon, canon, or alpha mount sony lenses. Also, I've had a lot of fun finding old, manual focus canon, nikon, minolta, or other legacy lenses and using relatively inexpensive adapters to bring a different look to our images. Battery life is mediocre at best. The EVF works quite well for framing shots.
Buttons are a bit cumbersome at first, but for the person with no dslr experience, learning how to get around on the camera is a relatively quick process. I don't know how this would stack up against a full frame, mid level dslr, but I can tell you the size and weight of a dslr is prohibitive when it comes to our back country, backpacking adventures; and this camera has given us everything we need to play with portrait, landscape, artistic, and some action photography with the ability to manipulate aperture, iso, and shutter speeds. As a light, adaptable, and powerful compact system camera . . . I can't imagine it getting much better than this.
Nice Camera
I bought this camera as a light weight alternative to my D800. It works well and is easy to carry around. It focuses fast and the photos have come out very well. I take most of my photos in RAW and on Manual and I'm pleased with the general outcome.
The cons would be you'd better have a pocket full of batteries? Another thing to get used to is the short delay while the photo is written to the memory card. Also there is a lot of distortion with the 16-50mm lens so that should be taken into account when taking the photo.
The distortion is easily fixed in post processing. The pros: It focuses fast and I like some of the features of the camera. Sometimes it is nice to set the quality to JPG and use one of the Scenes and let the camera do the work.
Great compact w/ pro potential!
Camera is a secondary to a primary Canon DSLR system. Upgraded from NEX 5T and addition of viewfinder alone makes all the difference. Camera has potential to be a game changer to the shooter growing tired of their bulky DSLR. The A6000 responds well with color and focus—much more like what you'd expect out of a pro level camera. It's fast and not too awkward on the interface. Noise at high ISO is noticeable but not too annoying.
Body feels good in your hand and the controls are better than past layouts record button actually feels ok. Performance and size make this camera a great everywhere camera, with commercial capabilities, at a fraction of the weight of your DSLR and at half the price.
Meets/Exceeds All Expectations
I hate dragging my 7D and Canon gear on family outings and vacations. I experimented with a couple similarly priced m43 cameras. They always failed with action. I took the family to Disney and left the m43 at home and took the 7D because I didn't want to miss anything due to the camera. When the A6000 was announced, I had REALLY high hopes.
Whether it is actually the world's fastest autofocus or not does not matter. This thing performs and does not disappoint. I have absolutely no hesitation leaving my 7D at home – at least for anything that doesn't require a big white telephoto that you simply can't get for this camera. This autofocus, buffer, and sensor in a package this small for this price is absolutely amazing.

Celtic Strymon/Trident Coinage:
Mac Congail
The recently published Celtic coins from the numismatic collection of the Kyustendil regional museum (Filipova S., Ilya Prokopov I., Paunov E. The Numismatic Collection of the Regional Historical Museum at Kyustendil (Ancient Ulpia Pautalia) Part 1: Greek, Thracian, Macedonian, Roman Republican and Roman Provincial Coins. ( CCCHBulg ) Volume II. Sofia 2009) generally reflect the numismatic picture in southwestern Bulgaria in the immediate pre-Roman period. Locally produced ('barbarian') silver coinage circulating in this area between the 3rd and 1st c. BC ranged from Celtic imitations of the Macedonian issues of Philip II and Philip III (3rd – 1st c. BC) (fig. 1, 2) through early Celtic imitations of Thasos tetradrachms (fig. 3) (from the late II c. BC).
The Kyustendil region of Bulgaria

Fig 2 – Celtic AR Imitation of the 'Philip III type' – 2nd c. BC. (Kyustendil Museum Collection)
(after Filipova et al. 2009)
Fig. 3 – Early Thraco-Celtic Thasos 'imitations' from the Kyustendil Museum Collection. Late 2nd c. BC
(after Filipova et al. 2009)
The view expressed in some literature that these early Thasos imitations were produced and circluated in Thrace by some 'unknown Romans' – almost 100 years before Rome conquered the area – directly contradicts all the known historical facts relating to this period (on the chronology of the Roman conquest of western Thrace see 'The Scordisci Wars' article).
Also noteworthy are the particularly high number of hoards from this area of western Bulgaria which include Roman issues, notably of the Roman Quaestor Aesillas, and the 1st Macedonian region (fig. 4). As outlined elsewhere (see 'Damnatio Memoriae – Plunder Coins from Thrace' article), large amounts of these coins were brought into the area prior to the Roman conquest of Thrace as a result of raids/attacks on Roman Macedonia and Greece during the Scordisci Wars, particularly in the first half of the 1st c. BC (for more details see 'Damnation Memoriae' and 'Scordisci Wars' articles).

(after Filipova et al 2009)
In terms of lower denomination/value Celtic coinage, the presence in the Kyustendil region of Celtic bronze Strymon/Trident issues dating to the 2nd/1st c. BC (fig. 5) clearly illustrates that this type of coinage was also in wide circulation in this area of modern Bulgaria during the immediate pre-Roman period (on the distribution of this coinage in Bulgaria see numismatics section 6).

Album Review: Birdie by Slaughter Beach, DogPosted by Gig Junkies on Sunday Oct 1, 2017 Under Album Review, Music News
Review by Rob Johnson.
With some musicians, the phrase 'side project' would strike fear into even their most ardent fans. The general consensus being that to step away from their main band is to indulge their most eye rollingly, pretentious whims. Occasionally though, a side project comes along that may just be a match for the band that spawned them. Slaughter Beach, Dog are the brain child of Modern Baseball's Jake Ewald.
The concept behind the band is each song is written from the perspective of the inhabitants of the fictional town, Slaughter Beach. This allows Ewald to step away from the hyper personal lyrics of Modern Baseball, while still retaining the melancholic but hopeful themes of his previous work.
'Phoenix' is a gorgeous and maudlin album opener that sets the tone nicely for what is to follow. Ewald follows the time-honoured tradition of turning every day Americana into something poetic, crooning about hot coffee and family photographs. 'Gold and Green' was the opening single from Birdie and it evokes Winnipeg legends The Weakerthans while still maintaining that trademark Ewald sound. When he sings about making his garden grow "inch by inch and row by row" it could be an acknowledgment of the healing process for Modern Baseball… or it could just be a song about his garden. The ambiguity is a world away from his parent band and it adds an ethereal mystique to his song writing.
'Pretty O.K.' is perhaps the most MOBO song on the whole record but the insistent verse gives way to a melodic and gentle chorus that sets the song apart from Ewalds usual sound. 'Bad Beer' is the albums catchiest and best moment. The tale of an up and coming band drinking subpar beer on tour sees Slaughter Beach, Dog rise above the sum of their influences to produce something truly theirs. It is an affecting toe tapper that might well be the best song Ewald has ever written.
'Shapes I Know' ties a familiar melody into a story of teenage alienation and awkwardness. The stop start chorus reflects the protagonist's inability to find a place where they belong. 'Sleepwalking' is perhaps a little too indebted to John K. Sansom and The Weakerthans but as an album centre piece it serves as a welcome change of pace, being the most traditional 'rock' song on the record.
'Buttercup' slows the pace down to a point where Ewalds vocals are almost spoken. Whispered even. At almost five minutes it is the longest song on the record but it is also the most successful sat encapsulating the albums themes. Ewald wrings every ounce of emotion from the minutiae of everyday life as he sings about "how little we have changed" and scratching "an old wound".
'Friend Song' sounds like it could have come straight from Welcome, the band's first record, with its rough around the edges feel and simple instrumentation. The difference is the maturity in the lyrics as Ewald laments that he "still likes to look at your pictures".
'Acolyte' closes the album as a meditation on young love, broken down bars and stargazing. With Birdie, Slaughter Beach, Dog have done more than just justified their existence. They have marked out Ewald as a contributor to the great American songbook, a troubadour, a story teller. This 'side project' have allowed Ewald to spread his wings as a song writer to the point where the term 'side project' may well be disingenuous when referring to Slaughter Beach, Dog.
Slaughter Beach, Dog's new album 'Birdie' will be released on 27th October 2017 on Big Scary Monsters and Lame-O Records.

A Few Thoughts On Instructional Information About Fishing
I know many of you get tired of (or either stop) reading about things you already
know. If you do, just keep in mind there are plenty of anglers that don't know the
basics, much less specific tips for certain types of environmental conditions, water
levels, species of trout, etc. etc. This article came flashing through my mind this
morning, when I reviewed what I had written yesterday. It made me realize that there
were probably plenty of readers that just didn't comprehend what I intended for them
to get out of the article. The subject of Snells Circle and light really needed drawings,
animations, etc., to explain it well. I've thought about doing just that, but I do well just
to write something each day. There are days when I can't possible type what crosses
my mind and days when I can't think of anything important to write about.
I learned many years ago, in the mid 1980s, after I had produced my first few
instructional videos on saltwater fishing, you can't please everyone with an hour or
less of instructions, even if the subject is fairly narrow. There were very few
complaints over the years on any of my forty-six saltwater videos (which still sell well
this day in time) but when I did get one, it was always one of two opposite types of
complaints. One, the program
didn't teach enough basics
, or two, the program
taught what the viewer already knew
Of course, you can always do a basic, intermediate and an advanced version, but I
learned a few years later, doing that still got just as many complaints. It's simply
impossible to cover most fishing subjects in a short time regardless of how specific it
is. I think I have a pretty good idea about how that's done, at least from a video
standpoint. When it comes to saltwater fishing, more of my programs on the subject
have been sold than anyone else in the World.
I'm making it sound as if my distributor received lots of complaints on videos when
they actually received very, very few. A far as actual complaints, they probably
received only one out of every thousand videos sold, all of which they directed to me.
Most of the time, I had to dig this type of information out of a person who had viewed a
program. When I met someone who had viewed one of my programs, I always ask
them what they thought of it. I do the same thing with our fly fishing DVD and with the
benefit of the World Wide Web, that isn't all that difficult this date in time.
The most frequent comment I receive was the video didn't cover enough basics. For
example, if it was an instructional offshore trolling video and I mentioned you needed
to use a Bimi-twist knot for such and such rig, the complaint was that I didn't show
them how to tie a Bimi-twist knot. That's a legitimate complaint. The problem is, it
takes about ten minutes to show and describe the details of tying that one knot and
even that varies from rig to rig.
If the title of the video is generic, such as "Trolling for Saltwater Fish", it would take
days of video (not hours) just to cover the basics. If it was species specific, such as
"Fishing for Red Snapper", that would involve at least a few hours to cover the basics.
It's the exact same scenario for trout. That's assuming someone put them on the fish.
If it required explaining how to locate the fish, and hold the boat over the fish, it
needed much more explanation and involved the use of Loran/later GPS and sonar
equipment. Either of those two items of electronics, could require a few hours of
instructions to cover the details of how to use them.
Just in case you either 1. Get bored with my articles that repeat what you already
know, or 2, you don't follow them due to the lack of explanation and information,
please be advised that after 30 years of teaching people to fish, i still haven't figured
out the solution to everyone's problem.
I certainly don't know how to do it the fast and easy way.

PRESIDENT Julie Merberg began her publishing career 30 years ago as an editorial assistant at Simon & Schuster—which now handles sales and distribution for Downtown Bookworks. Many years as an editor and then as a packager led her to launch Downtown Bookworks as a book packaging company in 2005. But it was her experience as a mother of 4 boys that compelled her to start a children's publishing company with the mission of keeping kids engaged in reading and the world around them. The list reflects her passions—science and nature, the arts, girl power (and her husband's passion—super heroes). She has written many of our books including My First Book of Feminism (for Boys), Baby's First Eames, My First Book of Girl Power, and My First Jewish Baby Book. Julie lives in Tribeca with her husband, their sons, and a rescue mutt named Alvy who sleeps under her desk and protects her from delivery people.
EDITORIAL DIRECTOR Working on infotainment titles such as the annual TIME for Kids Almanac has made history buff Sarah Parvis the go-to gal when it comes to all things trivia. She is also Downtown Bookworks' resident puzzlemaster, having worked on hundreds of picture puzzles for LIFE magazine, TIME for Kids, and Sports Illustrated Kids. Before joining Downtown Bookworks, Sarah Parvis had a bustling freelance career as a writer, researcher, and photo editor (skills that have come in very handy!). She has written Ghost Towns, Haunted Hotels, Creepy Castles, The Quotable Feast, Good Girls Finish Last, and The Kennedy Mystique, and handled the photo research for projects ranging from science to Stetson hats to America's First Ladies.
ART DIRECTOR Georgia Rucker combines eye-catching color combos, pop-sensibility, and a love of legibility to create books with wide appeal. In addition to art directing and designing the full line of Downtown Bookworks titles, Georgia has also illustrated a few of them including: GIRL CEO, My Favorite Shoes, My Favorite Purse, and the Allegra Biscotti books. She loves working on books for a younger audience as she has two kids of her own (who like to give their own over-the-shoulder art direction.) In addition to DTBWP's titles, she has designed other books including the TIME for Kids Almanac, Kardashian Konfidential, Deal With It, and many more.

Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
- Dweezil Zappa: guitar, vocals
- Scheila Gonzalez: saxophone, flute, keyboards & vocals
- Ben Thomas: vocals, trumpet, trombone, guitar, percussion
- Chris Norton: keyboards, vocals
- Kurt Morgan: bass, keyboards
- Ryan Brown: drums
- Pete Jones: stunt vocals on 'Dragon Master'
I saw the band in Antwerp last week and I have to say that it was one of the best concerts that I have seen this year. A great setlist, starting off with the complete One Size Fits All album and continuing with a superb selection of familiar tunes. I loved it.
True, Dweezil might not have the charisma that a frontman of a rock band needs, but he did bring a great band along. Great playing. Fun for all.
The set opened with the Star Wars theme. Goosebumps !! They continued with the complete OSFA album, followed by an excellent 'Black Napkins' and the Frank / Dweezil collaboration 'Dragon Master'. Fun.
Highlight was 'The Grand Wazoo', including an improv featuring the fabulous Scheila Gonzales and some hilarious audience participation moments. 'Sinister Footwear' and 'Montana' were other top moments. Did I already tell you that I loved it?

init_sigmask) .
* Fixed all hyphen quoting in the manpages: "\-" is a minus and "-" is
a hyphen (weird but true).
* Improve the documentation in README.Debian and the
comment in common-pammount to make clear there is only one
include per PAM application, not two.
Also, adjust the original README to mention common-pammount.
(Closes: #302024) - Fails to unmount on session close and crash
* Only call realpath when it exists and is executable. This is due to
the fact that
a) /usr might not be mounted or
b) the realpath package is not installed.
Add a Suggests: realpath in debian/control.
(Closes: #332325) - should depend on realpath
* NULL-terminate command arguments, thanks Paul Hampson for the patch.
(Closes: #324735) - does not mount with xdm
* Patches 04_g_ascii_strup and 05_warnings: fix deprecated functions
and some compiler warnings.
* Added fsck to the default allowed options. Also add it to one of the
example mount configs to give users a hint that this option is
useful for home directory mounts.
* Allow to specify a group name as user for volume mounts with
'@group'. This lets all users in the given group mount a volume.
This option is only allowed in the global config. (Closes: #276322)
* Allow relative pathnames with umount.crypt (Closes: #327614)
* New patch 38_mount_links thanks to Julien Soula.
(Closes: #329094) - fails to check already mounted volume when links
are used
* Added option to mount.crypt to specify filesystem type.
Use like this:
$ mount.crypt -o fstype=ext3
Or in pam_mount.conf add "fstype=ext3" to the crypt mount options.
Note that you only need this if mount(8) does not detect the file
system type automatically.
(Closes: #324871)
* Add cryptsetup LUKS support to (u)mount.crypt. Thanks Florian Frank
for the patch (Closes: #325028)
* Added FSCK definition to mount.crypt. Thanks Ruediger Otte (Closes:
* Add build dependency on 'check', a C unit testing framework. Right
now it is not used, but we don't want to get errors if upstream
decides to use it.

Chris Brown is preaching again and you better stay woke.
Vibe got an interview out of Chris Brown who just dropped his album Royalty and you know Breezy, he does not mince words – he goes all the way.
Discussing his music, how he discovered that he was his daughter's father and the awareness of being black in America, Chris Brown was open in the interview.
And he took his time to reveal how much he has grown and changed and evolved into a Chris Brown we cannot help but love.
However, if you thought for some reason that the star was going to become a self proclaimed role model because of his new way of life, then you must be sleeping.
Talking candidly to the magazine, Brown said;
It's not my job to be your role model; it is my job to be your inspiration. There is a difference.
You may recall that some months back, Rihanna said something in this line when she was asked if there could remotely be a future collaboration with Country Star turned Pop Star, Taylor Swift.
Rih had mentioned that her and Taylor do not sing the same type of music and did not have the same type of audience, she had added that Taylor was role model material and she was not.
At least, they warned you.
Meanwhile, you can read the whole Vibe interview with Breezy here.

The London Home Cinema company have been designing and installing cinemas for the film and TV industry for nearly 20 years. While the majority of systems they install are for professionals who are solely concerned with hearing their work at their best, more and more of these same clients are now looking for the best performance in their family home cinema without the need for a dedicated listening room.
We took a visit to the London Home Cinemas new showroom to look at a system designed to keep interior designers as happy as movie professionals.
Martin Redwood first encountered MK loudspeakers back in 1994, when he attended the LucasFilm THX training course held at George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch facilities in California.
"Having been shown how the soundtrack for a movie is created and understanding the many processes that go into it, I was most interested in what set-up the sound engineers would use in their post-production studios. The now ubiquitous MK 150 system was the answer – for them and countless other Hollywood studios" Martin comments. "and that's the sound that we want to re-create for our clients in their family home cinema rooms, as accurately as possible."
This photo shows one of the London Home Cinema's demonstrations rooms. A full MK 150 system is kept on permanent demonstration for clients who want to hear precisely how films are intended to be heard.

Panasonic HD reborn in the USA
Panasonic Broadcast & Television Systems Co. is establishing a 'High
Definition Business Development Center' at its offices in Los Angeles.
The center will serve as a design and support facility for HDTV and
digital-video-networking products.
President Frank DeFina said market research and engineering activities will
shift from offices at parent Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. Ltd. in Japan to
the Los Angeles center. A rotating team of product engineers from Japan will
work at the center in an effort to stay closer to U.S. customers.
Panasonic's U.S. division is also undergoing some organization changes,
resulting in the elimination of 'a minimal amount' of jobs in sales and
administration in Los Angeles, DeFina said. Some sales staff will move from Los
Angeles to Secaucus, N.J., where Panasonic maintains its corporate

On-Site Training
Get exactly what you want!
Nothing can begin to match the value of face-to-face training. Those who have experienced a workshop with Cheri will all attest to that. Bring her into your district and bring your team or staff up to the next level in prevention, preparedness and response. You will be amazed!
Looking for a scheduled upcoming training to attend?
Click here and check out our Open Registration Trainings and Workshops!
Some districts choose to have the whole five-day on-site team training, and many choose just one or two days for targeting specific needs. Here is a list of our commonly requested workshops, but if you don't see what you need, let us know!
- Flight Team Training (Crisis Response Team Training)
- The Cyber-bullying/Suicide Connection
- Trauma Intervention
- School-wide Recovery Following Traumatic Events
- Grief, Loss and Bereavement
- Facilitating Grief Groups
- Suicide Prevention, Intervention and Response
- Safe Rooms (Grieving rooms for students/staff following deaths)

Open Registration Workshops
The other option is that CMI sets aside some weeks during each year to provide workshops for which anyone can register and attend. A district provides the room for the training. We allow you a free attendee for any workshop you host as well as we consider the topics of your choice allowing you to provide much-needed training that you want at a minimal cost to your school or district. Additional free seats will be allowed depending upon registration numbers. District staff help us by sharing the workshop information with districts in their region, and we do lots of legwork on getting the word out as well. Any of the above topics work for either district-based or open registration workshop.
We often create workshops for specific needs, as long as the request is within the scope of our expertise. Having been in this field for so long, we also have a national network of other professionals in related fields, so if we can't provide what you want, we'll be quick to refer you on to someone who can.

Expand your view and never be the same – Highlands Farm Estate is the place to be. Set on top of the Drakensberg and overlooking both the magnificent valleys of KZN and the beautiful grasslands of the Free State.
The farm is situated 2km from the N3, adjacent to the small town of Van Reenen. It is easily accessible, yet far enough to experience peace and tranquillity. It is not too far from the major cities – 300 km from Johannesburg, 250 km from Durban and 350 km from Bloemfontein. Far enough to be remote, yet not more than a three hours drive. It allows you to get away more frequently.
The Natal side of the estate offers sizeable homestead plots or a cosy village community.
There are 39 freehold residential homestead plots, each measuring 4000 m2 (1 acre). These homestead plots are scattered along 4.5 km roads. Each plot has a view over unspoilt valleys, natural forests and mountainous grass plains – the sun unfolding dynamic colours throughout the day as it rolls over the mountains. The space between the sites, the plains and valleys will be farmed with Nguni cattle and game. With horse riders, some herding cattle, and game crossing the roads, you will experience country life at its best.
There are 44 limited mixed-use erven in the village, averaging 750 m2 in extent. Limited mixed use means that the land can be used for a dwelling house and/or an office, a home business eg, small bakery, B&B, tea garden, etc. The broad streets ("woonstrate") are lined with huge oak trees, with children playing in the street, alongside buildings of old South African architecture – a laid back, small town feeling. In the village there are lots of open space – an oak forest to picnic in, a well to gossip around, a barn for parties – sometimes for the youngsters, some times for those of age and other times for everybody together. On the eastern side of the village there is a medical centre and on the west a boutique hotel.
Other amenities, situated in altitude 400 m below the village in the lower reaches of the Lost Valley, are the 6 tent tented camp (available for family camping in a somewhat more rugged style) and the cultural village (for experiencing live Zulu culture). The imizi (homestead) will consist of a circle of 6 isindlu (huts) and a bigger hut for the umnumzane, accommodating a total of 14 people.

Experience the high literally and figuratively… The village and view plots are 1700m above sea level. The highest point is on top of Swartberg – 2034m up in the blue skies and the valley is at 1280m.
All homeowners will enjoy a general right of access to the common land (800 ha) of Highlands Farm – fishing in the dams, ponds and streams, hiking on foot or horseback through indigenous yellowwood forests, exploring fossilised dinosaurs in the layers of mountain slopes will give you the outdoor adventure of your life.
Our community of people, with a self achieved lifestyle, like to partake in a variety of social events. You could join the historical society and explore the rich history of the farm and of the area. Members of the botanical society could spend a lifetime in identifying all the flora species on the farm – most probably the widest biodiversity in our country. After a day of outdoor pursuits, an ale in the club or pub, reading at the fireplace, followed by an evening of wining and dining with friends and family is the sporting lifestyle of restrained elegance on Highlands Farm.
Your erf or homestead site will be freehold and serviced with potable water, sewerage disposal, electricity, solid waste disposal as well as roads. The services will meet the local municipality standards. These standards will be maintained by means of a levy. All of this are in a secured environment. A real sense of security will be developed by the total community. On Highlands, we look after one another.
The farm is just 2km from the N3, easily accessible, yet far enough from it to experience peace and quiet. It is not far from the major cities, which allows you to get away more often.
We offer you a lifestyle with a difference. Even when you live it, it is every time so wonderful, yet never the same.

The bee was a symbol worshipped by the Ancient Druids, who believed the bee to be a symbol of the Sun and the Goddess Mother Earth. They celebrated the bee at festivals by drinking mead, a beverage made of fermented honey. In addition, Citrine is a sparkling yellow stone said to carry the warmth of the sun and deflect negativity.

My waiter, Cabe, at Pat's recommended Pat Huval's Camp style shrimp. I asked
him about his name and he said it was a combo of Cain and Abel. wow!
I had been to the next town (Breaux Bridge) with Elizabeth Finkelstain after the Eric Firestone Warhol show was over. Breaux Bridge to a Cajun brunch given on Saturdays. The table I'm dining at is next to the door for the Atchafalaya Club where they are playing swamp music. I asked the elder woman at the door what swamp music was and she said "zydeco is zydeco; cajun is cajun and swamp is swamp". I see.
My mind on this trip has been sharp.
Along the Tami Ami trail I bought a handsome sleek styrofoam cooler. In Georgia a Goodwill had a pile of new rubber high heels in different sizes and colors. I bought twenty pair. When I got to Siesta Key, Fla. to visit Becky Wild, a former student of mine when I taught at Antioch's Baltimore media center in the mid seventies. Becky
and her husband Rick were at my wedding in 1980 and we have remained close friends. She went onto become a fine photojournalist working for the Pelican among many mags. We always had a shot and a giggle then we'd shoot something like a backroom wedding. I also became very close to her brother Mike, who fathered Cleo, same age as my daughter Leah. He was 2 beautiful for this world and now drives a bus in the after world. Through Becky I met the photographer Brad McCortney, a Faulknerian character I consider also a close friend. He and his wife Sandy were also at my wedding.
It turned out his daughter Becca was visiting from the East with her two children and husband. I hadn't seen Becca since she was 13 yrs old and I had shot her in a mermaid bathing suit on the beach with my 4x5 crown graphic. I found out her shoe size, pu a pair of rubber heels in the cooler filled with ice. "Heels On The Rocks". She loved them and so did her your daughter. They fit perfectly and cool to the touch.

Roland Saturn SA-09
Refurbished by Custom Vintage Keyboards. The Saturn 09 is an analog organ synthesizer (similar to the RS-09 which added a string sound). The Saturn is capable of creating some cool sounds for techno/ambient music, ie: low drone organ bass tones or blips. It has been used by Newcleus and is probably hidden among the rigs of a few other electro-artists!
