Rodriguez and his place in The Story Of Rock | Brian Currin
Willem Moller, Rodriguez, Brian Currin, Sugar Segerman | 2 March 1998
Almost all the recent fan messages on the Sugarman.org website are from people saying they have never heard of Rodriguez before. Many even apologize for not listening to him in the 1970s.
I can't remember when exactly I first heard 'Cold Fact'. For me his music just always seemed to have been there. A number of the mixtapes from my teenage years show "Sugar Man", "Rich Folks Hoax" and "I Wonder" as being from 1973/74 when I was about 14/15.
I was wrong, of course, but didn't know that until much later.
A long time ago, I compiled a series of C90 mixtapes called The Story Of Rock, with all the information lovingly catalogued and hand-written in hard cover books.
Page 13 of Book 7 shows the track listing for "The Story Of Rock 1973 to 1974" and includes the following songs:
Long Train Running – The Doobie Brothers
We Live – Xit
Sugar Man – Rodriguez
Radar Love – Golden Earring
Smoke On The Water – Deep Purple
Sweet Home Alabama – Lynyrd Skynyrd
The Ballad Of Casey Deiss – Shawn Phillips
Rich Folks Hoax – Rodriguez
We're An American Band – Grand Funk Railroad
Other artists include Led Zeppelin, The Allman Brothers Band, Yes, Focus, Chicago and more. And Rodriguez was the only one that got two entries! The next page shows "The Story Of Rock 1974 to 1976" and includes "I Wonder" alongside songs by Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull, Thin Lizzy, Rory Gallagher, Pink Floyd, Genesis, David Bowie, Frank Zappa, Uriah Heep, Nazareth and others.
I am finding it impossible to imagine what it must be like to not grow up listening to his music alongside all those other well-known classic rock bands. I know I never heard him on the radio, but that wasn't that strange as a number of my "Story Of Rock" artists didn't get much radio play any way.
But that he wasn't famous in the rest of the world, didn't cross my mind. When I first discovered the internet during the 1996 Festive Season, I could find information on Pink Floyd and Deep Purple, however I could find nothing on Rodriguez. And that started me on a quest, that just seems to be continuously having happy endings.
Without trying to sound too melodramatic, I would not be living the life I do now, and earning my income from doing what I love, if it was not for Rodriguez and all the sparks that he ignited.

Just Give Me Rock & Roll Music
A small collection of rock & roll covers by classic rockers.
Life Is A Long Song
[Thanks to Jethro Tull for the post title]
Just a few of my favourite really long songs.
Thick As A Brick – Jethro Tull
Supper's Ready – Genesis
Karn Evil 9 – Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Close To The Edge – Yes
Tubular Bells – Mike Oldfield
Phallus Dei – Amon Düül II
Autobahn – Kraftwerk
Ma – Rare Earth
Get Ready – Rare Earth
Just A Poke (album) – Sweet Smoke: Baby Night & Silly Sally
Includes an excerpt from The Soft Parade by The Doors and a wonderfully phased drum solo.
Shine On You Crazy Diamond, parts 1-9 – Pink Floyd
On the 'Wish You Were Here' album, this song is split into two sections, separated by the other 3 songs on the album. Here it can be heard as one long piece.
Anonymus Two – Focus
Tarkus – Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Echoes – Pink Floyd
Salisbury – Uriah Heep
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida – Iron Butterfly
Ordinary length songs are often stretched incredibly during live performances, here's one of them:
Dazed And Confused (live 1973) – Led Zeppelin
And here's another:
Space Truckin' – live 1974 – Deep Purple
And just for laughs:
Metal Machine Music – Lou Reed
This double album, consisting of 4 sides of equal length, is like one of those really bad movies that you keep watching hoping it will get better.
Spoiler alert: it doesn't.

Top Ten Classic Rock Songs
The Masters Of Rock Head South in 2010
From SA Music
Considered as one of the pioneers of heavy metal and hard rock, Deep Purple were listed by the Guinness Book of Records as the world's loudest band and ranked as number 22 on VH1s Greatest Artists of Hard Rock. They incorporate many sounds into their rock music including classical, blues and pop. Deep Purple is still one of the hardest touring bands in the world and has continued to tour around the world since 1968. They're most famous for their haunting hit – Smoke On The Water.
Deep Purple will be supported by Uriah Heep and Wishbone Ash.
The technically brilliant heavy rock band 'Uriah Heep' (taken from the character featured in the Charles Dickens novel David Copperfield) have sold over 30 million records and have had 5 US Top 40 albums. Their debut in 1970 was a simplistic bass driven sound from electric folk to a direct harder appeal. Uriah Heep were at the forefront of a richly embossed, fastidious style of music later to be dubbed as progressive rock.
Andy Powell, Muddy Manninen, Bob Skeat, Joseph Crabtree make up Wishbone Ash, a British rock band who were hugely successful in the mid 70s. Their popular records include Wishbone Ash, Argus, There's The Rub and New England. Wishbone Ash are considered one of the major innovators of the harmony twin lead guitar format. Their contributions helped Powell and Turner to be included in the Top 20 Guitarists of All Time by Rolling Stone magazine.

Some of the old dudes that rocked in 2009
Rod Stewart – Soul Book
Rod Stewart - Soul Book
I've always enjoyed Rod Stewart's soul covers on his 70's albums; 'You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Man', 'If Loving You Is Wrong, I Don't Want To Be Right', 'I Know I'm Losing You' and 'You Send Me' spring to mind. Now in 2009, this 64 year old recently released a great collection of soul covers …. great album.
Favourite track: It's The Same Old Song
Leonard Cohen – Live In London
Leonard Cohen - Live In London
In July 2008, then 73-year old Leonard Cohen recorded 'Live In London' which was released as a double CD in March this year. A superb collection of songs with incredible musical arrangements, linked by Leonard's surprisingly lighthearted banter and continuous acknowledgment of the band.
Favourite Tracks: Hallelujah, Recitation (A Thousand Kisses Deep)
Bob Dylan – Together Through Life
Bob Dylan - Together Through Life
I have never been a big fan of Bob's vocal style, but he sure writes some awesome songs. On this album, featuring the two guys kissing on the cover (c'mon, look closer), he teams up with Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter and produces some fine swampy, bluesy songs.
Favourite track: Beyond Here Lies Nothin'
Uriah Heep – Celebration (Forty Years Of Rock)
Uriah Heep - Celebration
Uriah Heep first appeared in 1970 with their 'Very 'Eavy Very 'Umble' album featuring the classic 'Gypsy'. I was hooked, and am still a fan today. They are still going strong, though guitarist Mick Box is the only original member.
2008's 'Wake The Sleeper' is one of my albums of the last decade, and Uriah Heep recently released 'Celebration'. This album features only two new recordings, the rest are newly recorded covers of their greatest hits. Not always a recipe for success, but these new recordings breathe new life into many of my old favourites, except for 'The Wizard', which just doesn't seem to work.
Favourite tracks: July Morning (2009 recording), Look At Yourself (2009 recording)
U2 – New Line On The Horizon
Steve Earle – Townes
Neil Diamond – Hot August Night / NYC – Live From Madison Square Garden
Neil Young – Fork In The Road
Lynyrd Skynyrd – Gods & Guns
Ian Gillan – One Eye To Morocco

A: Your problem is that you did not copy the code from @Ken's answer. There's no point in us trying to debug the transcription errors that you made. The correct solution is to use the code from the answer correctly. Since @Ken gave you a complete unit, just use that. Make sure you use the clipboard. Select the entire unit and paste it into an empty editor window. Then save it to a file named GetWinVersionInfo.pas.
If you need to edit that code then I would probably remove all the declarations that can now be found in the Windows unit. It avoids confusion having only the one copy of these things. For example the types and constants can, I think, all be removed.

Newswise — Researchers have generally believed that teachers are better than parents at evaluating the behavior of school children, because teachers have a bigger group of children for comparison. A University of Virginia study, however, shows that parents are better at assessing their child's emotional states, while teachers are better at rating bad behaviors. The results emphasize the importance of teachers and parents working together in the child's best interest.
Associate professor Timothy Konold, coordinator of research, statistics and evaluation at U.Va.'s Curry School of Education, will report his findings on April 8 at the annual American Educational Research Association (AERA) meeting in San Francisco.
"Our results indicate that both parents and teachers are important considerations when assessing a child's overall behavioral disposition," Konold said. "The results have important implications for the manner in which we collect information on child behavior problems that are used to inform instruction and counseling decisions," he said.
Konold based his research on ratings given by mothers, fathers and teachers of a representative sample of 562 first-graders in the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Study of Early Child Care. U.Va. is one of 10 sites of this national, 15-year research project, led by Robert Pianta, an authority on early childhood education, who is also a Curry School education professor.
One of the study's commonly used questionnaire rating 96 behaviors typically reveals different scores on the same behaviors when mothers, fathers and teachers evaluate their children, said Konold, who sought to determine which rating was a better assessment.
What he found is that parents' scores are better indicators of emotional behaviors, such as being anxious, sad or lonely, or making physical complaints (real or imagined).
"Parents do a much better job of assessing internalizing behaviors, so we should use their ratings when there's a discrepancy," he said.
When it comes to aggressive or other delinquent behaviors, called "externalizing," teachers make a better assessment, he said. Examples of those behaviors include arguing, teasing, threatening, cheating, swearing and lying. These are behaviors children may have learned from their parents, so the parents don't necessarily recognize them as deviant as consistently as teachers do.
Konold said researchers have not found these results before because they didn't have an approach for disentangling the variations attributable to the method being used to collect the ratings from observers and what the ratings were actually designed to measure (behavior problems). He used a more modern methodology developed in the last decade to make it possible for educators to interpret the measurements more effectively.


Shreveport attorney Mark J. Miciotto's practice involves all areas of Louisiana family law. Mr. Miciotto is experienced with contested and uncontested divorce, legal separation, division of property, alimony, child custody and child support orders, including establishment, modification and enforcement.
You may also contact Mr. Miciotto if you need a lawyer for prenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements, paternity, guardianships and adoptions.
Do Mothers Always Get Sole Custody Of The Children In A Divorce?
One of the misconceptions people have when considering divorce is that the mother will always be awarded custody of the children when the divorce is final.
Mothers do not always get sole custody of the children in a divorce. Louisiana family courts prefer a joint custody arrangement for children, where both parents provide the care and nurturing environment on an equal, but separate basis.
When divorcing parents are unable to come to a custody agreement amongst themselves, the family court then looks to the best interest of the child for determining which parent will be awarded custody of the child.
The child's best interest is determined by observing which parent's home will provide a consistently safe, loving, stable and nurturing environment for the child. If aged 11 years or older, the child's statement of preference may be a factor the court also weighs in to decide the custodial arrangement.
The court checks whether either parent has a history of drug or alcohol abuse, past or present physical abuse, and criminal charges or convictions affecting the physical, emotional, developmental and educational well-being of the child.
Adopting the minor child already in your home is called an intrafamily adoption. Mr. Miciotto is experienced with Louisiana adoptions and can assist you with the fine details of an adoption petition, including obtaining revised birth certificates and enrolling in tax credits for adoptions of special needs children.
If you are seeking to adopt a child who is not your stepchild, grandchild, sibling, niece or nephew, the state of Louisiana requires a pre-placement home study and a report to the court. The investigation is conducted to determine suitability of the adoptive home.

Your membership website, whether new or long-established, might not rank well for phrases that you want to attract traffic for. These phrases might be general phrases to attract potential members, enticing them to join, or to get current members to book onto an event or download a resource.
The plus side of improving your search engine ranking of your own website is that often the changes also aid users of your website, so it's a win-win scenario.
To rank well in search engines like Google and Bing, a combination of things you do on your website, and things you do off your website are considered. Today we are concentrating on 5 things you can do on your website to improve your standing in search engines. The tips don't require too much technical knowledge or search experience.
Namely the load time of a page, speed is an important part of the search engine equation. A search engine would rather not direct users to pages that are slow to load as it would reflect badly on them. One issue that crops up often with slow websites is the size of images, meaning the dimensions of the image and the file size of the image. The larger the image, the longer it takes to load the page.
Tip: Reducing image sizes means faster page loads for visitors, meaning happier visitors, and also points gained in the eyes of search engines. Before adding images to your website, aim to shrink them to a sensible size and then compress the file size using a service like TinyPNG. If you have images on key pages of your website that are too large, consider replacing them with optimised versions.
No doubt you are adding new content like news and events to your membership website anyway, but perhaps consider a different kind of content to add. New content appeals to users as it adds value to membership, and also can have positive effects in search.
Tip: One great benefit of writing new content is that it can get linked to from other websites. This is great for your search presence as links to your website are (usually) seen as a positive by search engines.
Instead of simply writing a new news article, which may have a small element of interest to current members, consider some high value, open content. This should not be hidden behind a membership area and should offer some useful advice, facts and opinions thus enticing people to read and consider joining but also link to it.
Especially with established websites, links around a website or to external websites can end up broken due to content being moved or deleted. This is not a great situation for search or visitors and can often be an intimidating task to start.
Tip: Whilst doing this manually, using a tool like Dead Link Checker can speed things up. Either fix broken links from your webpages to others or if there is no new version of the link then redirect the link to somewhere relevant.
Again, this one helps users and search engines. Linking from the body copy of your page can help guide users around your website and also help search engines discover and better understand your content.
Tip: If you have a good opportunity to do so, link from your body copy to another page. Ensure the link makes sense alone, without the need to read around it, and you'll find it works well for search and visitors.
Every webpage has a title. It is what shows as the blue link in a search engine results page. It is also shown as the name of the tab on your browser. As well as showing up in these two places, it is used as a factor when deciding how to rank a page. If you're titles read as something quite general like "home" or "about us" then you could be missing out on search traffic.
Tip: Ensure that your titles are useful and enticing when they show up in search engines. As well as this, consider putting a small phrase - something you wish to rank for – in your title. So, for our website here at Senior, we might avoid using a title such as "service - website design" and instead use something like "Web design for membership associations" – it's more attractive in search results and is something that is relevant to the page.
All of the tips above should be possible to action in one day, depending on the size of your website. One main takeaway with the tips here is that if something is good for your users, chances are it is good for search.
If this article has inspired you to start thinking more about search in your website efforts then great! If you work for a membership organisation and think a new website or some search consultancy would help then by all means get in touch and we can talk about the options you have.

The new San Jacinto College commencement mace is designed to represent the College's values that are present in all aspects of life at San Jacinto College. The manipulation of the hand-wrought metal and wood construction reflects the grit, determination and flexibility needed to accomplish the goal of completing a degree or certificate at San Jacinto College. Symbolic elements such as the four-sided San Jacinto Monument Star remind us of our place in history, while the flame stands for the eternal search for knowledge and progress. This piece will be one of a kind, designed and built to the highest quality, and will stand out as a unique piece of San Jacinto College's future. I am very honored to be asked to create the new commencement mace for San Jacinto College, and I hope it mirrors the high caliber of education our institution provides.


Being a close relative of a Tudor monarch was not a very comfortable position. According to Henry VIII's Third Act of Succession of 1544, Eleanor was designated as eighth in line behind Henry's three children, Eleanor's sister Frances, and Frances' three daughters Lady Jane, Katherine and Mary Grey. Despite being so near to the throne, Eleanor managed to live a full and satisfying life.
In the will of King Henry VIII, his son Edward, daughter Mary and daughter Elizabeth were named as his heirs. He totally bypassed the children of is eldest sister Margaret and also ignored Eleanor and her sister Frances, naming their children as next in line. This has been debated ever since. Perhaps Henry anticipated his children would have heirs. He did not think highly of Henry Grey and didn't want him to have any power which he could claim if his wife Frances became Queen. He also may have expected Eleanor and Frances to have more children, possibly sons, as they were still of childbearing age.
Eleanor was born sometime between 1518 and 1521. She was possibly named after Eleanor of Austria, Queen of Portugal and France and the sister of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. Eleanor's father was Henry VIII's boon companion Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk and her mother was Henry VIII's sister Mary Tudor, one-time Queen of France. When Eleanor's tomb in Skipton Church was opened in the seventeenth century, her skeleton was found to be in perfect condition and indicated she was very tall and large boned. She was described as having fair hair, probably a strawberry blond.
It is most likely Eleanor was born in the family home of Westhorpe Hall in Suffolk. Eleanor and her older sister Frances received an education worthy of their status as royalty and daughters of a duke. There is some circumstantial evidence Eleanor spoke and wrote French. When Eleanor's sister Frances married Henry Grey, Marquis of Dorset in March of 1533, Eleanor was betrothed to Lord Henry Clifford, the eldest son of the Earl of Cumberland who was also distantly related to King Henry VIII. Eleanor's mother died in June of that year and in January of 1536, Eleanor served as chief mourner at the funeral of Catherine of Aragon.
Eleanor's fiancée Henry Clifford was described as being tall and slender with dark hair. He was well educated, had a superb library, and enjoyed his hobbies: alchemy, astrology and distilling. He spent time at court, working in the household of Henry VIII's natural born son, Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond at Pontefract Castle. He was made a Knight of the Bath at the coronation of Queen Anne Boleyn. Eleanor and Henry were married in the summer of 1537 in London near Suffolk Place in the Church of St. Mary Overies, now incorporated in the Cathedral of Southwark. King Henry VIII attended the wedding.
In celebration of the wedding, Henry's father, the Earl of Cumberland built additions to Skipton Castle for the couple to occupy. These included a long gallery extension and two towers, one of them octagonal. The renovations were made in less than four months, and the newlyweds spent the early years of their marriage here. It was highly unusual, at the time, for a couple of Eleanor and Henry's standing to have their own establishment while parents were still alive. Eleanor gave birth to two sons and a daughter named Margaret who was born in 1540 and would marry Henry Stanley, 4th Earl of Derby and live until 1596.
During the rebellion known as the Pilgrimage of Grace, the Clifford family was in significant danger. The rebels were swirling around Skipton Castle. Eleanor's husband and father refrained from joining the rebels. In fact, her husband played a major role during the crisis. He rallied the Carlisle townsmen to stand firm against the insurgents. It was clear Skipton would come under siege, and the family did what it could to fortify the castle. Her father-in-law sent Eleanor, her attendants, her sisters-in-law, and her son to Bolton Abbey for safety, about ten miles from Skipton.
By October 22, 1536, Skipton was under siege. The renegades were unable to bring down the castle but they heard Eleanor was at Bolton and made their way there and forced their way into the abbey. They took Eleanor, her son, and her sisters-in-law captive. They were held hostage and treated with extreme severity.
The rebels sent a message to Eleanor's father-in-law threatening to place them before the insurgents who were storming Skipton. They said if the castle wasn't surrendered, they would hand the women over to the lowest camp-followers. The Earl was enraged that the king's niece was being mistreated and left immediately for Bolton. He entered the rebel camp and negotiated the release of the women and his grandson. Everyone returned to Skipton and the siege of the castle was abandoned five days later.
The old Earl of Cumberland died in 1542, and Eleanor's husband inherited his titles. Shortly afterwards, Eleanor and Henry lost their two sons. Baby Charles died first. The eldest, named Henry after his father, lived to be about two or three and was buried in the family vault in Skipton Church next to his brother. This must have been very hard on Eleanor.
She was an attendant of Queen Katherine Parr at the end of Henry VIII's reign. She got along well with her step-mother Katherine Willoughby. Her father died on August 22, 1545 and in his will, he left Eleanor £200 worth of plate along with jewels and other household items. She is listed as a frequent recipient of New Year's and other holiday gifts from Henry VIII, perhaps indicating she was a favorite of the king. There is evidence that Eleanor visited Bradgate in 1546, the home of her sister and her nieces Lady Jane, Katherine and Mary Grey. During the reign of King Edward VI, Eleanor and Frances received New Year's gifts from Henry VIII's eldest daughter, the Lady Mary.
After my most hearty commendations, this shall be to certify you that since your departure from me I have been very sick and at this present my water is very red, whereby I suppose I have the jaundice and the ague both, for I have none abide [no appetite for] meat and I have such pains in my side and towards my back as I had at Brougham, where it began with me first. Wherefore I desire you to help me to a physician and that this bearer may bring him with him, for now in the beginning I trust I may have good remedy, and the longer it is delayed, the worse it will be. Also my sister Powys [ half-sister Anne Brandon] is come to me and very desirous to see you, which I trust shall be the sooner at this time, and thus Jesus send us both health.
At my lodge at Carlton, the 14th of February.
And, dear heart, I pray you send for Dr Stephens, for he knoweth best my complexion for such causes.
Eleanor died at Brougham in November 1547 and was buried at Skipton Church. Sir Henry was overcome with grief when told Eleanor was dead. He fainted and lay as if dead. Indeed, his attendants believed he was dead. They stripped his body and were preparing to have him embalmed when he bewildered them by reviving and struggling to sit up in his coffin. The servants put him in a warm bed and fed him warm milk and bread until he fully recovered. Sir Henry would marry again to the Lady Anne Dacre. He lived until 1570 and was buried between his two wives in Skipton Church.
Don't treat it as history, just read it as a story.

London Has Never Looked Better Than In These Mid-Century Linocuts
Jordan Kushins
Jul 10, 2014, 11:00pm
London has been written about, painted, sketched, photographed and depicted in pretty much any and every creative medium available to human hands, but Edward Bawden's linocuts of England's capital are some of the coolest ever depictions of the city.
The Floral Hall, Covent Garden, 1967, lithograph after linocut
The artist and graphic designer was born in Essex in 1903. He remained a rural boy at heart for the length of his life and career, but got to know the bustling metropolis as a student on scholarship at the Royal College of Art in the 1922, and later doing ad work for Twinings, Westminster Bank, and, famously, the London Underground through the 1960s.
Nine London Monuments — St Paul's, 1966, linocut
His linocut — relief carving into a sheet of linoleum — and lithograph techniques were absolutely, positively on point; architectural facades and interiors are composed of strong geometric elements, but there's still so much personality imbued in each and every line.
Changing The Guard: London's Daily Military Tattoos, 1925, lithograph
The Higgins Bedford has an exhibition of Bawden's work up at the moment, and because I live in San Francisco and won't be able to make it, I hope someone who's in the area can go and tell me what it's like to see this stuff up close. For the rest of us (who may or may not have left our hearts in London years ago…), here are some of the lovely works on display.

Q: How to get the average of a column that contains a string with a number? I have a table that contains a column with a list of names and column for a list of levels. The level column has a data type of string. I am trying to get the average for the levels for my list of people. So the table below should populate the average level which is Level 2.8 ((2+4+2+2+4+3)/6)-> and I want it to show the integer below the average level - thus: 'Level 2' should be the result.
How can I add the levels since these are strings and not numbers?
TABLE A

Column 1
Column 2

Joey
Level 2

Rachel
Level 4

Ross
Level 2

Pheobe
Level 2

Monica
Level 4

Chandler
Level 3

RESULT:
Level 2

A: it can be different depend on which dbms you are using :
SELECT  AVG(CAST(REGEXP_REPLACE(column2, 'level ', '') as INTEGER))
FROM TABLE

or as it mentioned in the comment you can use `oreplace':
SELECT  AVG(CAST(OREPLACE(column2, 'level ', '') as INTEGER))
FROM TABLE


I've heard that phrase tossed around lately by women who've made a lot of bad romantic decisions. Maybe they woke up in a couple of beds they wish they hadn't, or were burned By Bad Boys They Became involved with too fast. They hope that taking a few months off from hooking up will give them time to clear their head and start over with a clean slate. Either that or they're just not getting laid anyway. If you run into a woman who claims to be on a booty fast, don't take it too seriously. Just smile and suggest that you're willing to help her break it.


A unique musical tribute to the cultural influence of 1960s African-American radicals.
One of the twentieth century's most iconic cultural figures, Bob Marley was responsible for popularising reggae music throughout the world. His unique blend of politically conscious lyrics and melody won him legions of fans far beyond the Caribbean. But Marley was no mere pop star: his strong attachment to Rasta beliefs and practices and his fierce hostility to the injustice of 'Babylon' made him an important spokesman for the dispossessed.
In this new biography, Garry Steckles follows Marley's eventful life through the early days in rural Jamaica, arrival in Kingston, first recordings and performances to his spectacular status as an international superstar. Throughout he analyses Marley's political and religious beliefs, while also concentrating on his relationships with fellow musicians, family and influential figures such as Chris Blackwell. A chapter focusing on Marley's long-term legacy explores what the musician contributed to world music and what the religious believer gave to Rastafarianism.
Garry Steckles has worked as a newspaper editor in England, Canada, Barbados and the United States. He has written about reggae and all aspects of Caribbean culture in major newspapers and magazines in North America and the Caribbean.
He worked as an editor on the The Sun, the Daily Mail and the News of the World, and wrote regularly for the Mail, covering football.
He has a regular music and culture column for Caribbean Beat, the inflight magazine of Caribbean Airlines, and has written for The Beat (the reggae, soca and world beat magazine out of L.A.), the official magazine of Reggae Sunsplash, the Jamaican Sunday Gleaner, the St. Kitts and Nevis Visitor, Maco Caribbean Living, the Toronto Star, the Montreal Gazette, the Vancouver Province, the Sunday Times of London and the L.A. Times.
Along the way, he has promoted reggae concerts in Montreal (Peter Tosh, Toots, Leroy Sibbles, Ken Boothe, Carlene Davis etc.), and hosted Caribbean music radio shows in Montreal and St. Kitts. He currently lives in St Kitts.

Justin Timberlake: Did Jessica Biel FORCE Him to Apologize For Getting Too Friendly With Co-Star?
by Tyler Johnson at December 6, 2019 12:43 pm .
By now, you probably know the basics.
Last weekend, Justin Timberlake was spotted holding hands with Alisha Wainwright, his co-star on the movie he's currently filming in New Orleans.
This created a problem, as Timberlake is married to Jessica Biel, who was at home with the couple's 4-year-old son while Justin was getting handsy with his colleague in the Big Easy.
Earlier this week, Timberlake issued an apology.
He maintained that there's no sexual component to his relationship with Wainwright, but he admits that he became overly friendly with his co-star after consuming one too many hurricanes during a wild night on the town.
"I stay away from gossip as much as I can, but for my family I feel it is important to address recent rumors that are hurting the people I love," Timberlake wrote on Instagram on Wednesday.
"A few weeks ago I displayed a strong lapse in judgement — but let me be clear — nothing happened between me and my costar," he added.
"I drank way too much that night and I regret my behavior. I should have known better. This is not the example I want to set for my son," Timberlake continued.
"I apologize to my amazing wife and family for putting them through such an embarrassing situation, and I am focused on being the best husband and father I can be. This was not that."
Now, a source close to the situation tells In Touch that Justin had been hoping the controversy would simply blow over, and it was Jessica who forced him to issue a public apology:
"He says he was going to do it anyway, but Jessica pushed Justin to make a public statement," the insider says.
"It was necessary for his image, but more importantly, another step in saving his marriage. He still has a lot of work ahead of him."
Yes, it sounds like Jessica isn't quite ready to forgive and forget -- and we can't say we blame her.
Catching your husband with some chick's hand on his knee isn't the same as walking in on them in bed together, but it's still not a great look.
"Justin is cleaning up the mess he made," the source says.
"He had no choice, he had to say something. He humiliated Jessica and while he apologized to her, and still continues to, that wasn't enough," the insider adds.
That source seems to be saying that things aren't great between Timberlake and Biel right now, but they'll eventually get past this.
However, a different source tells In Touch that this might be the beginning of the end for Jess and Justin:
"Justin and Jessica have been arguing for months," says the second informant.
"They've been fighting to save the marriage for the sake of Silas, but the photos of him wasted and being all handsy with Alisha is the final nail in the coffin."
Sounds like these are difficult times in the Timberlake household.
Those Britney Spears stans who are still pissed at Justin because of a relationship that ended 15 years ago might soon get the revenge they've weirdly been waiting for.

Daily Dish
"It Is Your Fault Mr Khamenei!"
By The Daily Dish
NIAC publishes some blistering excerpts from a speech delivered by conservative mullah Haddi Ghaffari against the Supreme Leader:
"Khamenei, your recent actions and behavior has brought shame to us clerics. Our image in the streets and bazaars has been tarnished as everyone is placing us in the same category as Ahmadinejad." "Khamenei, you are wrong, your actions are wrong. I believe in the velayat e fagih more than you."
"I'm not preaching these messages so that I could be associated with the West. I loathe the West and will fight to the last drop of my blood before I or my land succumbs to the West. On the contrary, I'm preaching these messages on the count that the respect for our profession is gone." "Young people are not praying anymore, whose fault is that? It is your fault Mr. Khamenei, it's your fault for placing us in the same line as that lunatic Ahmadinejad."
NIAC adds:
Ghaffari [was a former minister under Khomeni and] played a major role in the creation of Hezbollah–he is no reformist by any stretch of the imagination, and his frontal assault on Khamenei would have been extremely taboo prior to the election.
Muhammad Sahimi has more on the growing rifts between conservative clerics. I believe in my gut that this revolution has just started.

Neoprene is the perfect material to protect from cold and heat when using a LN2 or compressor cooling system.
The great insulation capabilities of foamed Neoprene are well-known. Of course the rule of ''the thicker the better the insulation'' also applies with neoprene, but also that the thicker the material the harder it is to shape it.
The applications for a PC system are mainly when using LN2 or compressor cooling for Motherboard or evaporator cooling or as insulation on other cold components to prevent condensation. Neoprene is especially suited for prevention of condensation as it is water-repelling!

The Most Vegan Friendly Cities In The World
S_Goldberger Published on 04/12/2021
The coolest cities in the world have become strongholds of plant-based cuisine. There is an overwhelming variety of vegan dishes on the table, from Chinese to sushi to vegan roast chicken. Well-being food for every taste!
In London you can find vegan restaurants at every corner of the city. It is not surprising considering the fact that London is one of the centers of animal rights activists. Even in the local supermarkets there is a variety of options of vegan food. In addition to that there are many, cool and fancy restaurants, that are not onlu vegan friendly, but actually fully vegan. The best example is the Piadina Genuina, one of the best vegan Italian restaurants in the world. On various rating portals and on Facebook, the location got five out of five stars. There is flatbread, pasta and desserts and everything is vegan.
Schivelbeiner Street could just as well be called Vegan street, because this is where the vegan scene is concentrated like hardly anywhere else in the world. Restaurants, cafés and clothing stores are lined up in the street, all of which are geared towards vegan and vegetarian customers. Prenzlauer Berg, a prettied district of Berlin, and Veganz, the first vegan supermarket chain in Europe, embody the wonderful contrasts of this city, where many still think of currywurst and schnitzel.
Number 1 on the list of America's most vegan-friendly cities in 2018 was New York, which should come as no surprise. New York offers vegan alternatives for pretty much any food or dish you can imagine, whether it's a soybean sandwich, a fake burger (that even "bleeds"), or a full, extravagant vegan breakfast that includes "bacon."
Tel Aviv is one of the leading vegan cities in the world and offers a huge variety of food options for vegans. Delicious falafel can be found on every corner and there are also plenty of vegan-vegetarian kebab shops. Anastasia is one of the very best and should definitely not be missing on the wish list of vegan explorers.
Also LA can be considered as a vegan paradise of the United States, especially because of all the amazing vegan desserts, cheese options and local gourmet food. We recommend a visit to the Little Pine Restaurant (owned by the musician Moby), the Crossroads Kitchen or the Sage Vegan Bistro if you really want to pamper yourself. Afterwards you can treat yourself to vegan donuts at Donut Friend. You are sure to have many, many Instagram likes.
Amsterdam has always been a stronghold of vegan culture. Jacketz is the flagship restaurant and offers an extensive selection of dishes with jacket potatoes and delicious vegan ingredients. The delicious potatoes with beetroot salad, one of the restaurant's specialties, are particularly popular. The Avocado Show should also be on your list: As the name suggests, it's all about the avocado and all the delicious things you can do with it.

Spring break is here and even though I'm anxiously awaiting baby boy's arrival, that hasn't stopped me from daydreaming about sunny beaches and tropical libations! I mixed up this pineapple dream over at Society Social after my friends at Captain Morgan sent me a few of their newest flavors, including coconut rum, grapefruit rum and pineapple rum. Just like that, the Goombay Smash was born and thankfully Mr. Southern Peach was a very willing taste tester. He gave it two thumbs up and declared it scRUMptious. Click over to Society Social and grab the Goombay Smash recipe pronto!
Happy Spring Breaking fellow peaches!


The snow has finally provided us with a "Winter Wonderland." The blanket of snow and the carols playing on the radio has provided me with the mood for decorating and baking.
But as I look through my "FROM YOUR HOUSE TO OURS" cookbook, I realize I will have to make changes to many of our favorite recipes to meet the no-dairy, no-sugar, gluten free needs in our family.
A good number of our family members are omitting certain foods so I want to serve delicious recipes that we can all enjoy.
Yesterday I decided to make the Gingerbread Cookies. I managed to make them gluten free and almost sugar free. I still used half of the maple syrup called for as this helps to make them strong and not fall apart easily. But I exchanged the sugar for Xylitol. I cut that amount in half and powdered it in the coffee mill. Today I made another batch and cut the sweetener to 1/4 cup Monk Fruit sugar substitute. They are still plenty sweet.
Beat the fats well, add & beat in the Xylitol, then egg, molasses and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture gradually until smooth.
Place the dough in fridge for a few hours. Roll out on your choice of gluten free flours sprinkled on the counter. Cut into shapes, place on cookie sheets allowing room to expand. Bake at 350 º F for 10 minutes. Remove cookies to a counter to cool.
On one batch I mixed a very small amount of icing. With a decorator I put small dots for eyes and buttons on each cookie. I placed a small round sprinkle on each dot.
On the second batch I placed 3 chocolate chips on the front for buttons while they were hot out of the oven. They softened and when cold they stuck to the cookies.
Allow to cool well and place cookies into a canister with parchment or plastic between layers.
Another favorite cookie for our family is the sugar cookie. Maybe now I should call it a sugarless cookie!
Sift the dry ingredients and set aside. Cream the fats well, add the remaining ingredients gradually and mix well until smooth.
Chill in fridge. Roll out on any gluten free flour sprinkled on a counter. Cut out into Christmas shapes.
Place on cookie sheets allowing room to expand. Bake at 350 º F for 8 minutes or until the bottoms are brown. Remove from cookie sheet and cool on a counter.
I unwrapped and melted 6 small dark chocolate pieces in the microwave, 20 seconds at a time until they were melted. With a knife place a circle of chocolate in the centre of each cookie. Add any sprinkles while it is still melted. I added some small decorated colored stars.
Allow to cool well and place into cookie canisters with parchment or plastic wrap between layers.
In November we Morris & Area Community PrimeTimers (seniors 55 and up) enjoyed a concert by the SANDERSONS from Portage la Prairie. They included some wonderful Christmas songs followed by our dinner of hamburger soup, rolls, chiffon cake and ice cream.
This coming week we will be enjoying a concert by our radio breakfast show host, Jaime Giesbrecht followed by our Christmas dinner of roast beef, mashed potatoes, vegetables, salads and dessert.
A number of us seniors prepare these meals and we all enjoy the time of worship, entertainment & fellowship with each other around the tables.
In the coming weeks many will be gathering together to worship and celebrate the greatest gift of all; Jesus Christ's coming to this earth for each one of us. The Reason for the Season!


In this poor housing market, Quonset huts are in style with new householders as well as with retirees on the lookout for an inexpensive technique to move to a warmer climate. Worryingly, the base line for home costs on this region seems to have slid downwards in the first six months of this yr. Sellhousefastusa 4 years ago from Sell home for money in the big apple , brooklyn, queens, long island, bronx & nationwide ! There is no central heating and the house has been virtually abandoned for years, meaning that 'air flow solely comes from the broken home windows!!! Thank you for responding and every little thing this member of the family did in the past was small theft like stealing cash from purses but recently has moved up to stealing financial institution cards, credit cards and now breaking into my residence.
Listing agent's really cannot do a ton to sell a home other than list it on the MLS and act as a go between/not say something silly. The wall separates our home and nextdoor (additionally the downstairs lavatory) and having spoken to them they don't have any points. Then there's Christmas-the unimaginable generosity of the families, organizations and companies that adopt" a Hope House household and make a Christmas for them. Though the Mason Bee House was made from salvaged items of weathered wood, the finished piece seemed higher after a fast sanding to soften the sharp edges, clean out the noticed cuts and to spherical over the corners of the post.
If you may afford it, you should get your house listed with an online estate agent that advertises on Rightmove. I took an grownup night guitar class at my local high school years ago in 'Beginning Guitar', One of the songs we discovered in school was 'House of the Rising Sun', and I beloved taking part in the chords. The furniture on this room was made particularly for Como at the time Charles Armytage bought the house and estate in December 1864. I watched from the mid 70-s to the 80s as Warehouser, ITT Rainer & Simpson reduce down nearly each single harvestable tree on all the west coast of the USA (from the late 70s to the mid 80s) and bought them as RAW LOGS (technically illegal) to Japan and the middle east. Just buying a 3 bedroom terraced home in Bromsgrove (between Worcester and Birmingham).
He's fun to watch when he discovers a ladder in the home.. I typically find him sitting on prime of the fridge, simply so he will be majestic and look down on the remainder of us. Saving for the out of doors structure ideas, faved and all that jazz. We have lived right here for thirteen years and previous to that the home was empty for a very long time but we now have put in double glazing and improved the property however we nonetheless haven't acquired on prime of this drawback. Created in 2014, our promo video is value a watch, displaying the house in all its glory it celebrates the historical past and splendor of Hatfield House. Because our plans included orchards and vegetable gardens, we had to improve and enhance our water storing capability to have any hope of surviving durations of drought. This article contains diagrams, photographs and step-by-step directions for constructing and hanging a owl house.
Final pickup particulars shall be emailed to all Fall CSA Members the week before the season begins. I recently bought a quonset house from the Nineteen Forties & have been trying to find out the historical past. After my burial of my mom's ashes, three small birds flew into the glass railing at my sister's lake house the place the complete family gathered for a wake. Bonds of affection and concord will be established when good planets are on this home.

Q: Find the number of lattice squares intersected by the boundary
Find the number of lattice squares that the curve $x^2+y^2 = 20.05^2$ intersects.

The solution guide says that we should look at one sector of the circle to see that it goes up $20$ and over $20$ so it should intersect a total of $4(20+20+1)$. On the surface this seems correct but can someone provide more proof for it and a picture?

A: There are two keys.  The statement that you should just look at the first quadrant comes from the fact that all the powers of $x,y$ are even, so if $(x,y)$ is in one lattice square, $(-x,y), (x,-y), (-x,-y)$ satisfy the equation and are in the corresponding lattice squares.  The second is that the curve does not pass through any lattice points. A figure is below with $x^2+y^2=3.2^2$ and the grid lines shown. Starting from $(3.2,0)$ and going around to $(0,3.2)$ you cross $3$ horizontal and $3$ vertical grid lines, so change grid squares $6$ times, so touch $7$ grid squares.

A: HINT:
$$x^2+y^2=\left(\dfrac{81}4\right)^2\iff16x^2+16y^2=81^2$$
Observe that if  $f(x,y)=16x^2+16y^2, f(\pm x,\pm y)$ are same
So we can focus on $0\le16x^2\le81^2$ with $x\ge0$ as $16y^2\ge0$
$\implies0\le x\le\sqrt{\dfrac{81^2}{16}}<411$

Back in the early '70s, junior journalist Paul Kelly had a favourite position between the two chambers in what's now Old Parliament House. Top left-hand corner, beneath the pillars in Kings Hall.
He'd linger there, hoping to pick up news about the roiling constitutional crisis that was devouring the Whitlam Government as ever-more frantic messengers scurried back and forth through the rabbit warren of tiny rooms and the crowded press gallery.
And on November 11, 1975 the biggest story of his life dropped into his lap: Governor General Sir John Kerr had, with the assistance of Opposition leader Malcolm Fraser, sacked the Prime Minister.

"Forty-five years ago to this day, to this lunchtime, I was standing over there as I often stood, hoping to be the recipient of some useful political information," he said at the Remembrance Day launch of The Truth of the Palace Letters, co-authored with Troy Bramston and held at the Museum of Australian Democracy.
"The news went through me like an electric shock. We all knew dismissal was an option but somehow we didn't take it seriously.
"I spoke to Gough all the way through the constitutional crisis and Gough's constant refrain was 'Comrade, I know the Governor-General will do the right thing, he's an honourable man'.
"Everyone was in shock just after 2:00 pm that afternoon. Well, not everyone. Not Malcolm Fraser."

Earlier this year, historian Jenny Hocking won her 10-year battle with the National Archives to reveal the contents of the letters between Kerr and the Queen's private secretary, Sir Martin Charteris.
Aside from the rights and wrongs, there's always been a hovering question about the Dismissal. Did the Queen know? Did she give her assent, either directly or indirectly? Was one of the darkest moments in our post-war political history directed from Buckingham Palace (let alone by the CIA)?

The book argues that while the Palace Letters shed fascinating light on the personalities and give contextual information about the events of 1975, it's abundantly clear that Her Majesty the Queen was not involved and that Palace staff urged caution about the use of the reserve powers.
Kelly and Bramston say that rather than an international conspiracy this was a wholly local episode, a vice-regal conspiracy erupting from the clash of titanic political personalities. There's no smoking gun and there never was.
Bramston, who was born six weeks after the Dismissal, has made unearthing its history an obsession.
"I read every book, I scrolled through newspaper articles on microfiche, I watched the TV coverage, I was absorbed by the miniseries and the many, many documentary and news specials about the event," he said at the launch.
"I made it my mission in life to talk to almost anybody who had any involvement in the Dismissal: former ministers, opposition MPs, Liberal and Labor staffers, public servants, party officials and journalists, the list literally runs into dozens."
He even interviewed former US president Jimmy Carter and British Prime Minister Harold Wilson's Downing Street staff, seeking any evidence of external plotting, but to no avail.
"There was no royal green light, a view that has now been strongly endorsed by Paul Keating, Bill Hayden, Doug McClelland and Moss Cass, the four surviving ministers from the Whitlam Government," Bramston says.

The book reveals other documents for the first time that illuminate the tortured process that followed the Dismissal, ending in Kerr's resignation and disgrace. There is a letter from Prince Charles to Kerr congratulating and praising him and also the CIA brief given to Gerald Ford debunking finally – if we need it, Bramston says – any evidence of US involvement.
Labor deputy leader Tanya Plibersek, who launched the book, concurs that Her Majesty doesn't bear any blame. But she believes that the story of the Dismissal matters for the same reasons as we must address reconciliation and other challenges around telling the truth about our national story.
"We can't let the Dismissal and its resentments shape our case for a truly independent nation," she said.
For Bramston, the story that's almost a half-century old still matters.
"The Dismissal … undermined our democracy and it compromised our political institutions. So it is each generation's responsibility to tell this story accurately, with evidence, and to interpret it correctly. And we must all make sure that it never happens again," he said.
The Truth of the Palace Letters: Deceit, Ambush and Dismissal in 1975 by Paul Kelly and Troy Bramston is published by MUP.

So Genevieve, here's the question that I have put to Plibersek's office: Why is a senior Labor front bencher helping two Murdoch flacks mansplain Australian history, on behalf of a royalist Prime Minister?

Political disaster for whom as I remember it there was a general election & the people of the day voted for their choice of Government.

"…and also the CIA brief given to Gerald Ford debunking finally – if we need it, Bramston says – any evidence of US involvement."
Far more relevant to suspicions at the time as to what the Dismissal was really about – some would suggest that the Mandy Rice-Davies axiom should be applied to that CIA brief –

Perhaps the monarchy had a very small role in the dismissal of the Whitlam government. It is all a bit of a distraction from the much more invidious role of the Americans. Marshall Green the US ambassador had blood soaked form in formenting military coups and massacres in Korea and Indonesia. He had his claws all over the Dismissal.
Running the Palace line, the Kelly-Bramston opus is getting all the publicity. Chief Royalist Morrison hasn't had to say a word. The press hasn't asked him a single question. While Plibersek betrays Labor.
For balance, how about at least mentioning the existence of the Palace Letters book, from the mere historian who actually sprang them?
"No smoking gun" is facile. What did you expect to find, a faded Royal Telegram from Charteris, "Mum agrees, sack the blighter now".
Also, John Menadue (who was on the spot) has reassembled in dot points the evidence that "Mum" is lying. Why do you think she personally locked up the letters for decades? But, as usual, spin is winning.

More like the conspiracy nuts didn't get what they thought they would but still can't give it up.
The only thing spinning is their brains as they frantically try to rationalise the fact that reality doesn't match the fiction they created in their heads.
