Moon Taxi is an American indie-progressive rock band based in Nashville, Tennessee. The band was founded in 2006 by Trevor Terndrup (vocals, guitar), Tommy Putnam (bass), Spencer Thomson (guitar, programming), Tyler Ritter (drums), and Wes Bailey (keys) while attending Belmont University.
On September 10, 2013, Moon Taxi released its third studio effort, Mountains Beaches Cities, on the band's label, 12th South Records via BMG. The album features 10 unreleased tracks produced by guitarist Spencer Thomson. Mountains Beaches Cities was recorded in Nashville, TN at SonyTree Studios and See Six Studios.
On November 11, 2013 Moon Taxi appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman, marking the band's national television debut.
Early Days and Formation of Current Line Up
Trevor Terndrup and Tommy Putnam attended high school together in Vestavia Hills, a suburb of Birmingham, AL, and played in a bluesy rock group known as Apex during their junior and senior years. Upon graduation in 2002, the two moved to Nashville, TN where they met fellow student Spencer Thomson shortly following their arrival at Belmont. Together with Thomson, a native of Bowling Green, KY, the trio began jamming in freshman dorm rooms, quickly landing a gig as the backing band for local rap duo. In the school years following, the group performed sparsely under the name Moon Taxi.
Soon after commissioning drummer Tyler Ritter, of Birmingham also, in fall 2006, the quartet began writing and recording songs for a debut studio release. Keyboardist Wes Bailey, a native of Knoxville, TN, began sitting in with the band during local shows around the same time, and when Melodica was released in April 2007, Bailey was added as a permanent member, thus completing the current line-up.
Melodica and 12th South Records
Moon Taxi's debut studio effort was recorded in Nashville, TN at Triple House Productions. The album's material is primarily categorized as "jam rock" and contains the signature tracks "Gimme a Light" and "Here to Stay." At this time, Terndrup, Putnam, Thomson, and Ritter formed 12th South Records, an independent label housed in their 12th Avenue South home.
After the release of Melodica, Moon Taxi toured the southeast supporting the record. The band gathered momentum, leveraging the album and their energetic live show to garner cult acclaim. During this time period, the band won bids for key local spots at the 2008 Summer Camp Music Festival in Illinois, Birmingham's City Stages Festival, and the 10,000 Lakes Festival in Minnesota.
Live Ride
In August 2008, the band recorded a live album at 12th and Porter in Nashville. The night boasted two sets with nearly 30 songs, both new material and favorites from Melodica. At the end of the night, Thomson was hospitalized with an injury to his left hand, rendering him unable to perform for the remainder of 2008. Moon Taxi took the stage in February 2009 for a hometown show at the legendary Exit/In with a newly recovered guitar player. The Live Ride release show was the first show the reunited quintet would play and was their first ever Nashville sellout.
JamBase called Live Ride "a prime intro to this vibrant group who incorporates roots-rhythms, Latin-ismo, Phishy riffs, complex fusion and gutbucket, blue collar rock into a pretty enjoyable ball they hurl with serious gusto."
The release of Live Ride was a precursor to more festival appearances, such as The Hangout Music and Arts Festival (Gulf Shores, AL) in 2010 and 2011,Wakarusa in Ozark, AR in 2011, as well as a nationwide tour in 2010 that took the band from Maine to California. The group won the inaugural Music City Mayhem Contest for the track, "Common Ground," which awarded them several songs in brief rotation on Nashville's WRLT Lightning 100.1 FM, and their Hangout Fest performance in 2010 gained them a "Best New Jam" nod through JamBase.
During their relentless touring schedule in support of Live Ride, Moon Taxi played opening slots for the likes of Gov't Mule, Umphrey's McGee, Matisyahu, and The New Mastersounds.
In 2010, Moon Taxi began writing new material for their highly anticipated sophomore studio LP, Cabaret. The album was recorded at Alex The Great Studios in South Nashville and at See Six Studios, Thomson's home studio. The album was produced primarily by Thomson with the help of Hank Sullivant, a musician/producer from Athens, GA, who also sang guest harmony vocals on "Let's Go Back." Cabaret was mixed by Grammy Award winner Vance Powell (The Raconteurs) at Sputnik Sound in Berry Hill, and mastered by Richard Dodd. The track "Square Circles" features a guest appearance by hip-hop artist Matisyahu.
The music and themes of Cabaret are a departure for the band, with more electronic influence (a la Radiohead), as well as tinges of folk and hip-hop. An album preview from JamBase states that "Cabaret illustrates the challenges of defining yourself in a world that seems to be suffering from its own identity loss."
The record was released on February 7, 2012 on 12th South Records and received a 4.5 out of 5 star rating from Glide Magazine. Videos for the album are currently being released, one of which, "Gunflower," debuted as AOL Music's Video of the Day.
From Red Bull's Rock Report: "We set out to make a cohesive studio record," lead singer Trevor Terndrup explains. "In the past Moon Taxi have been known for their live performances not their recorded music. We took quite a while with each of the songs and really thought about how they would turn out in a studio setting. If nothing else we proved to ourselves that this band is not one sided. We called the record Cabaret because we are performers, the world is the stage, and the album is the show."
From Glide Magazine: "Moon Taxi is a band that can really craft a song, understands arrangements and composition, and maintains artistic integrity. It's not much of a stretch to think these guys could blow up and enjoy popular and critical success in 2012."
The band toured promoting Cabaret throughout 2012 with opening slots for Perpetual Groove and Galactic, as well as a co-headlining tour with Nashville group, The Apache Relay.
During the summer of 2012, Moon Taxi made a Thursday night appearance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival alongside the Alabama Shakes, White Denim, and The Dirty Guv'nahs.
Mountains Beaches Cities
On September 10, 2013, Moon Taxi released its third studio effort, Mountains Beaches Cities, on the band's label, 12th South Records via BMG. The album features 10 unreleased tracks produced by guitarist Spencer Thomson. Mountains Beaches Cities was recorded in Nashville, TN at SonyTree Studios and See Six Studios. This is the first of the band's albums to be released on vinyl.

Outcome-Based Learning (OBE), Student-Centred Learning (SCL), Problem-Based Learning (PBL), and Case Study (CS) have emerged to be the methods DTC has adopted in imparting the curriculum. This helps in transforming students into self-motivated, active, and engaged learners. To provide state of art lab facilities to students, a faculty team at DTC is working in collaboration with IIT Bombay, under the project of MHRD, Government of India, to establish Robotics Labs in the campus.
In Architecture, DTC has consistently delivered the goods with students who have not only been position holders at University level, but also won laurels at the regional and all India level in the NASA meets. DTC has become a hub for creative design and has attracted top faculty from across the country to teach on a full-time, part-time or visiting basis. This includes several stalwarts from SPA, Delhi, ensuring the standard of architectural education imparted remains exceptional. In the last year alone, the School of Architecture at DTC has organised numerous national and international events, firmly making its place in quality architectural institutes of the country.
The MBA course at DTC is closely aligned with the contemporary business requirements. The two year course provides an array of opportunities to students by extending strong analytical foundation in key areas of business and management. Coupled with a rigorous internship programme allowing students to explore practical application of concepts, students are able to focus on and strengthen specific professional areas in Marketing, Finance, HR etc. Students are also motivated through abundant academic events, activities, and industry-academia interactions, with emphasis on group discussions, mock interviews, and personality development. The department is ably led by Prof. Mahajan, who has had over four decades of experience at the prestigious Kirori Mal College.
The sprawling DTC campus is in the lush green environs of Greater Noida, one of the fastest growing towns in NCR. While metro connectivity to DTC is slated to start within a few months and test runs are underway, the campus also houses separate well furnished hostels for male and female students. DTC also has a great connectivity with most areas of Delhi, Noida, and Ghaziabad through its network of buses. The lecture halls are air-conditioned and the futuristic auditorium hosts numerous exciting events. The central amphitheatre too is constantly buzzing with activities.
Being a young institute, DTC is gaining popularity and strength by the day, and has a strong team of highly motivated individuals who are conscientiously aware of the cause they are working for. The institute is steered by its Director-General, Hon'ble Justice Bhanwar Singh (Former Judge, Allahabad High Court), and boasts of many senior faculty that comprise a team of professionals who are enthusiastically aligned towards serving the nation, which is the goal and vision of DTC.

Back in August, I thought I would start blogging regularly again. Well, that didn't happen. I got halfway through the month doing really well on all the goals I had set for myself, then I started traveling for work and getting busier and I let my goals slip away. So, now that it is a new month, it's time to start again.
For those of you who still read my posts, thank you for your patience! I hope I can say that I am back for at least the next few months.
For now, here are a couple of pictures of downtown Roanoke. I hope to get another post up this week.
The featured picture on this post shows the Amtrak platform being constructed for passenger rail service to return to Roanoke on October 31st!

WiseGuyReports.com "Vietnam - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses" report has been added to its Research Database.
Scope of the Report:
Mobile Broadband Driving Vietnam's Internet Growth
After peaking in 2009 Vietnam's fixed line market in Vietnam has seen a significant decline. Market penetration has fallen from 20.1% in 2009 to 10.5% in 2012 and 5.7% in 2016.
In the meantime, having come late to the internet, Vietnam is finally embracing the higher access speeds offered by the various broadband platforms. Although there has been a surge in subscriber numbers, fixed broadband remains a relatively small but expanding market segment. Most significantly, the arrival of mobile broadband has seen widespread access to faster internet speeds.
Vietnam's mobile market has grown strongly over the last decade, evidence that the competition model the government has put in place, although with some limitations, has been working. At the same time, demand for new mobile services appeared to have dropped and growth had generally slowed. There has been a gradual shift to value added services, with the arrival of 3G and 3G+ and ahead of the launch of 4G.
The highly competitive nature of Vietnam's mobile segment is due in no small part to it being opened up to new players, importantly including some with no involvement of the state-owned VNPT. As with most other Asian mobile markets, growth in Vietnam was boosted by the early introduction of prepaid mobile services and prepaid remains a vital component of the business today.
Viettel is the largest mobile operator in Vietnam with over 40% market share, followed by MobiFone VTNL-Vinaphone and Vietnamobile. The Vietnamese mobile market has shown moderate growth over the past few years, increasing from mobile penetration of 135% in 2013 to 147% in 2016. However over the past two years the market has reached a saturation point, as mobile growth slow significantly. Further slow growth is expected to continue over the next five years to 2021. By that time penetration is expected to reach over 150%.

The initial roll-out of fixed broadband services win Vietnam as followed by a strong surge in growth; however, broadband remained a small but expanding market segment. It needed a stronger market focus by the providers; this seemed to have finally happened with the arrival of mobile broadband. As with other developing markets in Asia, there has been major shift in Vietnam's broadband market with the widespread adoption of mobile broadband, with lower tariffs, ready availability and the convenience of mobility being the big attractions. Mobile broadband has been growing strongly in Vietnam over the past five years. Penetration has increased from 14% in 2011 to 31% in 2014 and 43% in 2016. Further strong growth is predicted over the next five years to 2021.
The fixed broadband subscriber market in Vietnam has been growing moderately over the past few years from a relatively small base. Penetration has increased from 6% in 2013 to 8% in 2015 and 9% in 2016. Fixed broadband penetration is predicted to grow moderately over the next five years, reaching between 14% and 17% by 2021.
Incumbent operator VNPT has been leading Vietnam's charge into the broadband market. It has doing this largely as part of its Next Generation Network (NGN) development.
In the meantime, the digital economy in Vietnam has been flourishing, although its reach may not be as great as government policy would wish. The government has been the driving force behind the country's move into the age of the digital economy. It has been constantly emphasizing the need to use e-commerce to improve the country's economic competitiveness. The government has also been particularly active in the development of cyber laws, no doubt because of its deeply ingrained political culture of central control. On another related front, Vietnam is moving quickly towards the digitalisation of TV broadcasting. A strategy plan for conversion to digital TV should see the country's television stations broadcasting completely digital by 2020.
Key developments:
Vietnam's broadband market is growing strongly, on the back of the mobile broadband sector;
Fibre-based broadband subscribers continue to grow strongly.
The MIC has set 2017 as the target date for introducing Mobile Number Portability (MNP).
Viettel Telecom announced plans to launch its 4G LTE network.
Vietnamobile, announced plans to expand the coverage of its 3G network nationwide.
After a long period of low fixed broadband penetration, the market has started to grow strongly;
Most significantly, fibre-based broadband (FttH) subscribers have been growing rapidly;
DSL technology continues to support the majority of fixed broadband services;
The MIC issued a set of digital TV standards ahead of the planned digitalisation.
Companies mentioned in this report:
VNPT; Vinaphone; Mobifone; Viettel; S-Fone; Viettel; Vietnamobile

I bought a bunch of these shirts for the men on my mission's trip to Brazil. We printed our church name on them, and they seemed to last well over the time we were there. At a price so low, I definitely couldn't go wrong in buying these.
I purchased this shirt for my husband it fits really well and he looks great in it. Maybe that's why he wears it so often now! Thanks Gotapparel!
It's a perfect t-shirt with long sleeve style, the fabric is so comfy, smooth and soft. Really an excellent product.
Excellent product at a reasonable price and found just what I needed. I had no problem placing my order and receiving within 2 days! I will definitely order again.
I use these shirts all of the time! I was little disappointed by how few sizes there were, but satisfied with such a low price and quality fabric. I couldn't find anywhere that would beat the price. I would highly recommend these to anyone on a budget!

- St. Luke's University Health Network
- Contact Name
- Mr. Bret Buchman
- Consultants
- Howard Kulp Architects
- Services
- Agency Construction Management
- Project Start Date
- July 2012
- Project Completion Date
- October 2012
Project Description
Boyle provided construction management of a fast-track operating room renovation for St. Luke's University Heath Network, Bethlehem Campus. Developed by GE Healthcare, this hybrid operating room was the first of its kind in the United States. The high-tech procedures that take place in the operating room through sophisticated operating equipment required all construction details to be perfect.
The $1.4 million dollar construction renovation started in the beginning of July 2012 and was completed by the end of October 2012. Throughout the project, work was completed after normal business hours due to operating procedures in adjacent operating rooms.
Boyle removed the existing roof and raised it 10 feet to accommodate the GE hybrid operating room equipment. The operating room floor was also precisely leveled, so the equipment, which is laser guided and extremely mobile, could properly operate.
Boyle also renovated the adjacent sub sterile room, where surgical supplies are located and surgical instruments are sterilized, while other adjacent operating rooms remained functional. All improvements took place on weekends and nights, allowing the facility to remain functional for the next day's operations.
The entire project was a team effort, requiring constant communication among St. Luke's staff and planners, all project designers and GE's Healthcare team. Boyle Construction was privileged to have been part of such a unique effort in improving healthcare.

Fans of the first-person shooter game Call of Duty: Ghosts can soon enhance their playing experience by downloading an add-on pack featuring narration by Snoop Dogg.
Yes. Really. Snoop Dogg! The rapper has lent his voice to the game to provide commentary like "Ballistic vests ready. Those are some fine ass threads" and "Rack up points by reaching the enemy portal, ya dig?"
Snoop will also provide encouragement to players with pep talks like "Don't stop! Cap 'em and shank 'em." Oh man, now we kind of wish Snoop could just narrate out everyday lives.
"What interested me most about the project is that my voice could be connected with a game that's so hip, that's so hood," Snoop said in the announcement video. "It's the coolest game in the hood. All my homies play this game."
The Snoop Dogg voiceover pack will cost $2.99, available on April 22 for Xbox One and Xbox 360. We suggest sippin' on some gin and juice while you play.
