MYOWs and My Sweet Lord

The Importance of Becoming Savvy—Copyright and You

Before I launch into this posting let me explain that I am not an expert on the ins and outs of copyright law. But I have read enough and been in the business of design long enough (please don't ask how long) to know that if you value your creations, they are worth copyrighting.

The most fundamental points of law in copyright, are establishing the uniqueness and point of time of a creation. Very often the first point may come down to a court decision.

Chances are slim that two people will come up with the exact same design. Music is another thing, then it comes down to who came up with the unique combination of chord progressions that make up “My Sweet Lord” by George Harrison first.

In the famous lawsuit George Harrison was found to have unintentionally copied the tune “He’s So Fine” by The Chiffons, he later bought the rights. George had lawyers, and other business acumen to draw from to navigate these choppy legal waters. The Chiffons simply made hay while the sun shined down upon them by recording “My Sweet Lord” and made some money.

What would you do if you had to go to court over something you created and claimed ownership to but was now in dispute?

A guy in South Africa, Max Guedy, has come up with a simple way to register a creative piece online, for free. He calls this service MYOWs (My Own Works). Intellectual property, once registered there on your account is “time-stamped” to identify the latter point of law named, the time of creation.

According to an interview Max Guedy gave to the Frisk Design blog the new service should be up and running this month—August 2009. He says in the interview:

“So MYOWs guides its users, step by step, to have copies of their work removed according to the DMCA and Berne convention guidelines.While doing that, MYOWs builds a case history so that in the event that your case goes to court, you are fully prepared to win.”

That seems like a great deal to offer to the creative community for free. If this takes off and becomes a service that is scaleable in the entertainment industry, Max Guedy may just have something here. I have gone to his website and logged in to be kept abreast of developments as they happen.

With my experience with startups I know things can take longer than expected, but this is one idea, is not only new, but a bright spot in my recent coverage of the business of design. Keep Max Guedy and MYOWs on your radar, you may need a service like this someday soon.

My thanks to Matt Hill of Frisk Design, cheers mate!

© Copyright 2009 Guy Arceneaux All rights reserved

  1. As a blogger my articles get copied and pasted elsewhere all the time - I think MYOWS will be an interesting way to protect the copyright on my restaurant reviews. Thanks very much for writing about MYOWS, it sure seems like it will meet my needs. Well written post too!

  2. Hi, thanks for spreading the word about MyOws.

    I think it's a really valuable service and have been helping Max promote it around the web, so thanks for picking up the baton and doing the same. I know that Max will be thrilled to see the buzz spreading.

  3. I'm just dropping by to announce that myows is LIVE and in Beta testing.

    Your feedback and comments would be very appreciated.

Leave me a comment, I'd like to know what you think!

3 charged in latest computer sex crime sting

46 arrested over last 3 years

Three men have been charged as a result of Shawano County’s latest computer sex sting operation.

Frank M. Peak, 46, of Antigo, Andrew M. Wildt, 37, of Irma, and John M. Groenewold, 53, of Waupun, could each face a maximum 40 years in prison and $100,000 fine if convicted of using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime.

The arrests bring to 46 the number of men arrested by Shawano County authorities in online sex sting operations over the last three years.

All of the cases stemmed from Shawano County sheriff’s detectives posing online as underage girls, and sometimes boys, as part of the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

They were contacted by the suspects, who exchanged texts and emails of a graphic nature and set up a sexual rendezvous with them. They were arrested when they arrived.

Wildt and Groenewold both responded to an ad placed by sheriff’s detectives on Dec. 9.

Wildt was arrested Dec. 13.

Groenewold exchanged texts and emails with sheriff’s detectives until Dec. 30 when he was taken into custody.

Peak was arrested Wednesday after exchanging texts and emails that began on Dec. 21.

All three believed they were going to be meeting with a 15-year-old girl, according to the criminal complaints. They were taken into custody without incident.

Groenewold and Peak also allegedly sent the supposed 15-year-old graphic photos of their anatomy.

Peak is charged with four felony counts of causing a child to view sexual activity. Groenewold faces three counts.

They could face a maximum six years in prison and a $10,000 fine if found guilty on each of those charges.

A $5,000 signature bond was set for Peak at a court hearing Friday. He is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on Feb. 22.

Groenewold is also free on a $5,000 signature bond and is due back in court for an adjourned initial appearance on Feb. 6.

Wildt was ordered held on a $10,000 cash bond. He waived his preliminary hearing and entered a plea of not guilty. No date was set for his next court appearance.

Jobs with Big Payoffs

Mar. 12, 2013
Google plus Linkedin Pinterest
Many people in the state have to be baffled to see Republican Gov. Scott Walker, who campaigned on creating “jobs, jobs, jobs,” turn away billions of dollars that could create tens of thousands of jobs in Wisconsin.

Walker’s job creation record continues to be among the worst in the nation—42nd out of the 50 states—while the rest of the country experiences a growing economic recovery.

Despite his own poor jobs record, Walker recently publicly attacked Milwaukee, the state’s largest economic driver, and began advising Mayor Tom Barrett on how to create more jobs.

Walker said that unlike Barrett he’d spend his time and resources on economic development projects that put people to work.

"I'd spend more time focusing on helping develop jobs and improving the climate, streamline the processes, as opposed to picking battles at either the state or federal level,” Walker said.

Yet, in his second biennial budget, Walker offers little help. He froze state shared revenue for the city after he’d already drastically slashed it in his last budget.

Punishing Milwaukee economically also hurts Wisconsin. If Walker were serious about creating “jobs, jobs, jobs,” he wouldn’t let political animosity toward Milwaukee get in the way of creating jobs anywhere.

But is creating jobs in Wisconsin really Walker’s highest priority? Despite what Walker says publicly, it’s clear that job creation is not really his primary interest.

Walker is far more interested in championing right-wing ideology than in creating jobs for Wisconsin. But it’s not just ideological. There’s something much more corrupt at work.

That’s why Walker’s criticism of Milwaukee was so blatantly dishonest. Milwaukee invested millions of dollars in developing an industrial site in the heart of the city’s economically depressed black community so that it could attract the first major new industry in decades.

And it succeeded. Talgo, a Spanish train car company, opened its doors to manufacture train cars for a multi-billion dollar expansion of a nationwide high-speed rail system.

It was launched with an $810 million federal grant to Wisconsin that was a rare bipartisan achievement for two previous state governors, Republican Tommy Thompson and Democrat Jim Doyle.

When Thompson was governor and chairman of the board of Amtrak, he enthusiastically supported high-speed rail and made sure Wisconsin was at the center of a Midwest system connecting St. Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison and the Twin Cities.

When Walker became governor, he immediately trashed that huge economic windfall. He turned down the entire $810 million that would have created at least 13,000 jobs and even more economic development along the improved rail corridors throughout the state. Walker sent all that money and those jobs to other states.

The same thing happened again when Walker turned down even more federal money—$4.38 billion through 2020—to expand Medicaid health coverage for poor Wisconsinites.

Besides insuring more than 200,000 of Walker’s constituents, those funds would have added an estimated 10,000 new health care jobs, many in Milwaukee.

GOP Legislators Cash in on Mining Bill

After turning down billions of dollars creating more than 23,000 jobs, this week Walker signed his major job creation bill.

The law removes state environmental protections to encourage open pit iron mining in northwestern Wisconsin. No one can trust the wildly escalating jobs numbers supporters make up, but the mining company itself estimated it would create 700 jobs.

Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce, the state’s largest business lobby, said it could take five to seven years to create any jobs, probably longer when environmentalists start filing lawsuits.

What kind of economic sense does that make? Why would Walker turn down billions that would create tens of thousands of jobs and concentrate instead on promoting an environmentally destructive industry that may or may not create several hundred jobs years from now?

The answer is simple and not very pretty. Those billions of dollars from the federal government to create jobs didn’t come with any payoffs to the governor and Republican legislators. Deregulating the mining industry does.

The Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, which tracks campaign contributions, reports that from 2010 through about mid-2012, mining bill supporters contributed $11.34 million to Walker and another $4.25 million to members of the Republican-controlled Legislature.

Topping the legislative recipients was Republican state Sen. Alberta Darling of River Hills, who accepted $467,293 from mining interests. Darling spent a record $1.23 million in 2011 fighting off a recall challenge from Democratic state Rep. Sandy Pasch.

Darling’s haul topped by more than $150,000 the mining money contributed to the second place recipient, the Committee to Elect a Republican Senate. It got $313,413.

You can bet further reports will show even more millions in anti-environment, pro-mining gratitude to the governor and the Legislature for a job well done.

Walker and Republican legislators may not create very many jobs for Wisconsin, but the few jobs they do create pay off handsomely for themselves.

Given the nature of his victory and the allegations that his campaign coordinated with Russia, is Donald Trump’s presidency legitimate?

Getting poll results. Please wait...

Join the Super Fun Happy Club Today

Greetings One and all, today is your lucky day. The Cult of Jashin Super Fun Happy Club is opening its door’s to new members. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to joining one of the evilest happiest groups in the Shinobi world.

What is the Super Fun Happy Club?

    The Super Fun Happy Club is international an extra circular club which offers a range of fun, happy after work activities for Shinobi of all ranks and ages. We are currently hoping to expand into the Shinobi nations and set up offices in Kumo and Konoha in order to provide happy fun for all concerned. It is not, I repeat not, a cover for a ancient and terrible cult of murderers who have sold their souls to Jashin for untold power and immortality. This is a malicious rumour and if anyone spreads we will kill them be happy to correct their misconceptions.

Who can join?

    Any Shinobi with the sad exceptions of Kages since we don’t want them knowing too much we cant currently get the liability insurance to cover them as of the moment though we are working to correct this. This said there are only a limited number of slots. We suggest you apply soon or risk missing out.

    We here at the Super Fun Happy Club try to focus are help on those who need it most, society’s unwanted sons and daughters. As a evil cult benevolent non profit organisation it is vital we help these disturbed and dangerous individuals to hone their skills and turn them into living weapons to become constructive members of society. If you are a disgruntled individual or know one please give them are contact details and one of our blood drenched disciples Super Fun Game Activity Leaders will see if something can’t be arranged.

What does the Super Fun Happy Club offer?

    On top of our famed day trips and holidays the club offers which will be discussed lower down membership gives access to exclusive items, training and equipment to ensure a fun time for all as well as fun range of activities. Here’s just a few:

Art Classes

The Opportunity to learn our world famous super happy whip blade dance

Relaxing Acupuncture and Reflexology Courses

Face Painting

Innovative Cosmetic Surgery.

Super Fun Happy Trips and Vacations

    In addition to all the services already mentioned and more we offer oppourtunities to go on a killing spree free trips and vacations all over the Shinobi nations. Our dedicated team of murderers Super Fun Co-ordinators work long and hard each year to devise holidays just for our club members. Since they are largely Shinobi these super fun excursions usually involve live re-enactment of famous battles or conflicts where victims highly skilled actors play the role as the enemy. The very life like screams and pleads for mercy took years of training to perform and as for the apparent killing we use the latest in genjutsu to simulate deaths. I can’t tell you how much we at the super fun happy club want to avoid [stike]not[/stike] killing people and take every safety precaution. Sadly our actions are often misunderstand as is the ceremonial holiday robes we give everyone to make them highly recognisable and encourage a happy atmosphere. Let me take this opportunity to tell you that they are in fact very fun happy days out suitable for all the family. To prove this I have taken the liberty of enclosing some recent holiday snaps:

Super Fun Happy Club Pet Party

A picture from our recent trip to the former town of Jubi

Two members going on a site seeing tribe of fire temple where they performed the Club’s dance of 1000 blades for an audience of amazed monks many of whom mysteriously collapsed in the excitement

    As you can see these days out are innocent joy rides and any perceived harm caused is just an after affect of the realistic genjutsu used. It is a testament to the skill of the actors the club employs that there apparent dying screams are so believable.

Interview with Club General Secretary

    To give potential new members a real insight we have taken the liberty of inserting a recent interview with the Club’s high priest lovable General Secretary Mr Bump by an independent reporter for Hobbies Monthly. The transcript goes as follows:

    Reporter: This month I am sad to say that Mr J A Shin, Chairman and Founder of the Super Fun Happy Club could not be present to answer some questions. Fortunately the club has sent it’s General Secretary Mr Bump. Welcome Mr Bump

    Mr Bump: Hello Readers of Hobbies Monthly.

    Reporter: For those who don’t know the Super Fun Club is the latest in series of extra circular clubs for Shinobi, which according to its literature provides fun and vibrant opportunities to relax, cut loose and enjoy themselves.

    Mr Bump: Indeed we offer a range of valued, fun events designed for all ages and sexes

    Reporter: Coming to the main point if you don’t mind, your club has stood accused of cutting loose a little too much. That it is a thinly veiled front for an evil diabolic cult hell bent on wiping out mankind. What do you have to say to these accusations

    Mr Bump: Sound akin to ravings of mad man. Honestly do you think a evil organisation would call itself the Super Fun Happy Club and do face painting?

    Reporter: Very well how do you explain the disappearance of the Town of Jubi one day after your so called trip there?

    Mr Bump: You will note the term ‘after’. We had already left at the time, having said are goodbyes to the its wonderful inhabitants. We were most upset to here of the destruction that had been uncovered. It was a delightful place and we have already started to raise money for a new trip to go help off those 3 young orphans who escaped the flames and are said to be the only witnesses. We must take care of the little ones after all

    Reporter: The orphans in question give a very striking account of your tied everyone up and placed them in a burning burn and laughing as they were burned to a crisp.

    Mr Bump: Kids today have such frightful imaginations. Whatever will they think of next, that I danced over the graves in a ritualistic fashion?

    Reporter: Actually my sources suggest you did

    Mr Bump: Really now, who precisely are your sources?

    Reporter:I can not say Mr Bump as you are aware we keep our sources confidential here at …. Why are your eyes glowing, whys it getting dark Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    At this point there the interview came to a rather unfortunate abrupt end as Mr Bump and the dear reporter had a heart to heart and the reporter thoughtfully provided the names of the informants. These have since being add to our execution complaints list and will be receiving a complimentary appointment by one of our skilled representatives in the near future. We would likewise like anyone else who has some information to report or a complaint to contact us directly in a similar vein. The reporter sadly fell very ill at this point and died from natural causes. Let us take this moment to reassure those of you who heard of what happened that death by being impaled on a spear is perfectly natural as confirmed by a club approved medical professional

This concludes the Super Fun Happy Club’s announcement. If you eager to join us and start having fun just give us a PM. And should you here any more dirty rumours remember that we are government approved and if you can’t trust the government who can you

Mr Bump is currently looking for new friends to join his Super Funny Happy Club. Click here for details. If interested please send your application to Super Fun Happy Club, Just off the Pit of Flames, 9th Circle of Hell or PM him. On second thoughts the latter might be quicker ...

21st October

As I said in the previous post, I am attending the Asian Film Festival of Pune. And I thought that rather than reviewing the films like I did with the PIFF 2005, I should write about my experience of the festival itself – including the films, of course.

In spite of the fact that when I got back home I was chilled to the bone by the theatre air conditioning, and my left knee hurt because I had rested my right leg on it most of the time, I must say that I completely and utterly enjoyed Day One, and I am rather optimistic about the rest of the festival.

I saw four films today: Mr. & Mrs. Iyer (India – Aparna Sen), 36 Chowringhee Lane (India – Aparna Sen), Pak Pak Pakaak (India – Gautam Joglekar), 15 Park Avenue (India – Aparna Sen) – the festival has an ‘Aparna Sen Special’ of sorts.

I saw the first movie with a pair of little old ladies who wanted to practice their English with me, and were spouting each and every vowel as if their lives depended on it. The other three films I watched alone.

All three Sen movies were wonderful, albeit rather depressing. Sen’s outlook is realistic yet elegant, but it is also bleak. I would advise cine-enthusiasts to limit Sen films to two a day. Any more could be damaging.

The music in Sen’s films is also very good, and very fitting to the film’s atmosphere, although I do think that the music in 36 Chowringhee Lane does get a bit loud and oppressive at times.

Mr. & Mrs. Iyer is a film about communal violence. I don’t think I need to say much about it. The film begins rather predictably, and doesn’t really get into its stride till halfway through the bus trip, when the sense of foreboding grows on you bit by bit. But after that, words fail me. I will, however, say that the manner in which Sen used still photography after the bus incident is jawdroppingly good.

36 Chowringhee Lane, with Jennifer Kendall playing an old Anglo-Indian teacher in Calcutta, is about loneliness. It is a good film, with bits and pieces of good acting and imagery but I personally feel that the first part should have been even more sedate than it is. The second part is quite acceptable. And Geoffrey Kendall’s performance as Jennifer’s older brother Eddie, while a very obvious take on a stock character, is funny and sad, just like it needs to be. However, I will always remember this film for featuring the funniest (unintentionally) kiss I have yet seen on celluloid. The characters (a young couple) are kissing with their lips tightly and firmly closed. It is like someone was knocking two dolls together and making kissing noises. Indians really don’t know a lot about the facts of life, do they?

Pak Pak Pakaak is a light and fun film about a jungle ghost who is troubling a village. I would call this a children’s film made for adults – the handling is that of a children’s film, but the subject matter (the relationship of humans with nature) is all adult, as is the dialogue, and this feels rather odd. But I didn’t get bored, so I’m not complaining. For me, the most interesting thing about the film was that in the first half, I predicted twice what the film would turn out to be, and both times I turned out to be wildly wrong. That, I believe, is a reason to like the film. It isn’t an essential film in any way, though. The original concept is by Sai Paranjpe, and you can feel her touch, albeit very slightly.

15 Park Avenue is about schizophrenia, and it’s easily better than most Indian films made about mentally ill people. The script is detailed and meticulously written, and the performances are ... Well, actors have no right to be this good. It negates the concept of acting if you never feel like they’re acting. Everyone from Shabana Azmi and Konkona Sen-Sharma to Rahul Bose and Waheeda Rahman do their absolute best. The performances Sen extracted from them were so good that I spent the whole first half with a finger between my teeth, for two reasons – to keep from crying out and to constantly remind myself it was only a film. The ending, however, blows, because there just is no ending. I hate any narrative with a proper end (a ‘closed ending’, one might call it), as if the lives of the characters ended with the end of the film, but I do think that a film should have an ending (an ‘open ending’ – if you get the difference). And this doesn’t have one. What it has got is some weird pseudo-mystical pap that doesn’t make any sense, but is probably supposed to be ‘disquieting’. But the rest of the film is still worth it.

The first day isn’t much to base my opinion of the whole festival on, but there are some things I noted. The entry management is better than the one at the PIFF 2005 (at least in my experience), and they didn’t ask for a photograph to put on your pass (I never understood why the PIFF did that). However, the projection department could use a lot of improvement. I saw the first ten minutes of 36 Chowringhee Lane stretched horizontally at 2.35:1 when it was supposed to be 1.85:1 (that meant the people looked like so many fat dolls running about). The sound kept disappearing in Pak Pak Pakaak, and we had to endure three five-minute long intervals for no apparent reason. The other two showings were fine, though.

About the success of the festival in general, I’d say that there were very few people here, and only 36 Chowringhee Lane was actually packed. To compare, I had to sit in the aisle for four films in the PIFF. Also, the crowd here didn’t seem very enthusiastic. And I heard at least six or seven people criticising Aparna Sen’s films for being boring. That, I feel, is a word that results from a context that shouldn’t even be applied to Sen’s films. It’s like saying that Mike Leigh’s films don’t have exciting plots.

There is, however, a simple explanation, at least for the lack of attendance, if not for the lack of enthusiasm. The multiplex where this festival is going on is a very new one, and it is rather out of the way, especially for students, who are usually the primary targets for film festivals. And also, this festival is limited to Asian films. (My theory on this is that students, surmising astutely that Asian films would have a lot less nudity than films from all over the world, stayed away. I like this particular theory because it neatly and elegantly combines both my points – students and Asian films.)

Lastly, but most importantly, today I decided that I have fallen in love with Konkona Sen-Sharma. Before this, I had always liked her, but the films I had seen – Page 3 and Amu – never really gave her a chance to shine, Page 3 being an ensemble film, and my appreciation of her in Amu being impeded by her weird accent (also, that film wasn’t really about the acting anyway). In her two films today, I was astonished by the way she inhabited the two totally different characters with utter ease (especially the one in 15 Park Avenue). It’s her talent, her personality, her sheer ‘her’ness – I totally and completely love her. And I hear that she’s single these days, so ...

Note: My other posts on this festival – 2, 3, 4.

Quad monitor stand

Quad monitor stand

4.67 out of 5 based on 3 customer ratings
(3 customer reviews)

SKU: SL1080 Category: Tags: , , , , ,

Product Description

Quad monitor stand is the same as the triple monitor stand, but with added 4th monitor for gauging performance and running secondary programs.

Additional Information

Weight 21000 g
VESA mount

100 mm, 200 mm

3 reviews for Quad monitor stand

  1. 4 out of 5

    The stand does what it is supposed to do: holds up to 4 monitors, rock solid, no flex, just HOLDING. That’s what I have expected. (at the moment I just have three screens 27” …), 4th will come, sooner or later.

    Rock solid, quite easy to built – left and right monitor arms, well, you have to think about it first, than mount it. This is (the only) tricky part of building it. Especially if you are like me … I want to have the monitors PERFECTLY aligned, no tolerance 🙂

    5 Stars for Quality
    4 Stars for Price
    5 Stars for Customized Solutions & Support (e.g., I needed customized VESA spacers …)
    3 Stars for Logistics (order to delivery – no comment, 1 parcel got lost, kit list to check at arrival missing etc. – room for improvement Richard 🙂

    Overall: 4 Stars. Thumbs up!

    Reach out for Richard in case of questions. I found him always supportive and very responsive.

  2. 5 out of 5

    I purchased a custom version of this stand in order to accommodate my Lay-Z-Boy Recliner which was easily fulfilled by Richard at Sim-Lab.

    Ordering & Delivery: After ensuring the stand would fit my needs Richard sent the stand via FedEx which came 2 days earlier than expected. The package was slightly dented but the items within were in perfect condition. All parts and accessories were included even with a few extra T-Bolts just in case.

    Assembly: Even without instructions included (sent later via email) I was able to easily put the stand together just using the photo of the stand. The stand is very sturdy and with monitors attached there is no unwanted movement or sag allowing the monitors to remain perfectly lined up.

    Negative: The only negative I have which once assembled as desired is a non-issue is the few locations where screws/bolts are only accessible by removing other screws/bolts making small adjustments for those areas a larger task. Again this becomes a non-issue once the stand is completed.

    Final Thoughts: I love this stand, I am able to sit in my recliner while being surrounded by Nvidia Surround enabled games while having whatever else I want on the 4th monitor above. The quality and stability of the stand is excellent.

    Thank you again Richard!

  3. 5 out of 5

    I bought this monitor stand so that the monitors would NOT be attached to my GT1 rig.
    So that the monitors would not move when (violently) turning the wheel etc.

    And it is just perfect once installed.
    No flex at all between all 4 monitors and has good adjustability in both height and angle.

    While it has good adjustability, getting the monitors perfect (touching eachother) is still a bit cumbersome.
    When the monitor is mounted you cannot reach the screws anymore to move the vesa plate, so you cannot move the monitor.
    So you have to figure out how many cm you have to adjust, take the monitor off, adjust, and put the monitor back on and see if everything is correct etc..

    While it is a bit cumbersome, the end result is a rock solid monitorstand that will survive an earthquake and the monitors would still be level.

    Great product and service !!

BIS Transaction Data for 2011 : €1.7 quadrillion in 5 Eurozone countries

Following on from yesterdays post showing that in the 23 countries covered by the B.I.S. dataset managed well over $9 quadrillion in transactions last year, I've compiled the figures for the 5 countries in the Eurozone that are included.

The winner is Germany, with a very respectable total of nearly €751 trillion - up 6% on 2010, and nearly beating the record of €753 trillion in 2007.

Next comes Belgium, which saw a record-breaking total of nearly €367 trillion - up a very impressive 12.5% on 2010 - thanks in large part to the fact that the EuroClear Bank is based in Belgium.  And since EuroClear Bank managed nearly €333 trillion on its own....

France came third with a total of close on €293 trillion - 9% up on the previous year, but substantially below the record sum of €358 trillion in 2007. Not bad though.

As everyone knows, Italy is in crisis. And their total of €190 trillion is actually 1% down on 2010. But it's still nearly a record for them.

Finally, we have the Netherlands, which manage to break all previous records with a total of nearly €95 trillion - up more than 2% on 2010.

The chart for the Netherlands also includes the total figure for all 5 countries, which at over €1.7 quadrillion is over 8.5% up  on the previous year.

These are pretty impressive numbers, especially when you consider that they only cover 5 of the 23 Eurozone countries. I suspect that Luxembourg would manage some pretty eye-watering numbers too, based on the numbers from the European Central Bank. So much for the theory that there is no money in the Eurozone. There must be plenty if just five countries can generate €1,704,990,000,000,000 in transactions in a single year.

And it only goes to demonstrate that if the Eurozone countries led by France and Germany actually get a Financial Transaction Tax introduced, the tax's potential for generating revenue is truly impressive. Specfically, a 0.1% FTT on that lot would generate up to €1.7 trillion. What are we waiting for?

Sure, a 0.1% tax would no doubt result in a drop in the total level of transactions. So what? Are those transactions doing anything useful? Or are they pointless and parasitic? I think you can probably guess what I think....

Fiber Frolic and spinning silk hankies

I've been busy the last few days getting ready for a Fiber Frolic (aka knit and spin in) held at Jessica's house yesterday. I went early to help get ready for the crowd. I took my spinning wheel, lots of spinning fiber to sell/trade, things for the swap table, a donation for the door prize basket, and a huge pot of vegetarian chili. I'm so glad I went early! The roads were fairly clear, the sun was trying to shine, and it was only 10 degrees. After I was safely at Jess's, the wind began howling, banging against the house, and we had white out conditions for a while. (Must have been the cold front that was supposed to come through. Later, my husband told me our winter weather warning had been changed to a BLIZZARD warning! Yikes!) We were afraid the weather would keep people away. Not so, it wasn't long before they began to arrive. In all, eleven people braved the brutal weather conditions to attend. Peggy Coffey and her friend, Svenja, drove the farthest from LaPorte. That must have been a long, cold drive. You'll find pictures of the event on my friend Liz's blog. Jess will no doubt post some on her blog when she recovers from having us all over. LOL!

There were 7 spinning wheels whirring away, 1 drop spindler, and a number of knitters. I spun some lime green Shetland on my Majacraft Little Gem wheel (see picture above). We showed off our handspun, spinning fibers, completed knitting projects, etc. Jess hung a string across her patio door to display her completed Cameron Shawl, Elizabeth's Hap Shawl, and Liz's Flower Basket Shawl (knit from her hand dyed, handspun singles). All of them are gorgeous!

I did a short demo on spinning silk hankies on a drop spindle using silk hankies I purchased last year at Michigan Fiber Fest. The lady at the booth showed me how to pull one thin layer from the hankie and pull it into a roving. It's easy. (Before you start, make sure you lotion your hands thoroughly. The silk will catch on any dry skin.) After you pull off one hankie, put your fingers through the center to make a hole, and start pulling your hands apart to extend the fiber. You'll have to pull hard as this stuff is strong! Keep drafting until you get it as thin as you like. WARNING: Once you pull your roving, do not try to move the pile or you will have a knotty mess! (Ask me how I know? LOL!) Break the circle of roving, attach one end to a small, lightweight, drop spindle and start spinning. Silk is so long and strong that it won't break as you're spinning it as other fibers can. It's also "grabby" enough that it's easy to join a new piece. One hankie will spin a lot of very thin singles. If you don't spin, you can even knit from unspun silk roving. I sent the remaining silk hankies home with Aubrey and Liz to spin. They're both hooked on silk! I won't miss it as I bought more than one package in Allegan. Liz called me later to let me know that she had spun 3 hankies on the Bosworth featherweight spindle she got last week. I am such a fiber enabler!

I cleaned out my fiber bins and took a huge bag of roving to swap/sell. A lot of it found new homes but was replaced with 4 new ones! 1) The blue/white roving on the left is 9 oz of Columbia/Merino (80/20) blend from the door prize basket. 2) The center one is of 4 oz of a frosty looking Shetland/black llama mix, a trade from Peggy Coffey. 3) The colorful roving on the right is Liz's (Chocolate Princess) hand dyed BFL top from the swap table. 4) The blue braid in the front is 1.5 ounces of Fleece Artist merino sliver in Blueberry Mist. This was a gift from Jess. She was in Nova Scotia recently and found a yarn shop that stocks Fleece Artist products from nearby Halifax. This shop carries some colorways that are dyed specially for their shop. The blueberry colorway is one of them! This will be the next fiber on my wheel! I'll knit it up into something special just for me. I also snagged the Yarn Harlot's book, At Knit's End from the swap table. I have an autographed copy of her first book. I am so looking forward to reading this one.

No one went home without at least one new knitting or spinning goodie. In fact, we had such a good time that no one wanted to leave. LOL! Break up time was 3 pm but a number of us stayed later. We're already planning another Fiber Frolic for sometime in March. The drive home was even colder than my morning drive and snow was drifting across the road in many places. I made it safely home, warmed by thoughts of the wonderful day I had with some of the best friends a person could ever ask for!

Vicki, looks like you didn't do to bad either with what you came away with! I went through my "bag" and it had like 4-5 things more than when I left! Especially fiber! I don't need more fiber (hahahahah) And the lace hankies! I am definitely hooked! Thank you mentor for your diligent lesson and unfailing support! You made me know I could do it, and I am! My drop spindle is half way full already! I can't even get to my knitting because I can't put those hankies down! Love ya

Jay-z, Rihanna Raise $150K for Children’s Hospital

Jay-z, Rihanna Raise $150K for Children’s Hospital

Jay-z’s Roc Nation organization recently raised over $150,000 for the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles that will benefit the Mark Taper-Johnny Mercer Artists Program and Children’s Orthopaedic Center. The funds were raised through a post-Grammy concert at the House of Blues on Sunset that featured performances from Rihanna, Calvin Harris, Sebastain Ingrosso. Each performing artist donated their time on stage, entertaining the sold-out crowd.

“We are deeply honored to have the support of such powerful industry organizations and talent,” said David Skaggs, MD, Director of the Children’s Orthopaedic Center at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. “The funds raised by this phenomenal event will have a direct impact on the lives of children’s for years to come.”

It’s always great to see celebrities giving back!

Palestine – The Middlebury Blog Network Selected Posts from the Midd Blogosphere Fri, 20 Jan 2017 16:24:18 +0000 en-US hourly 1 Bulgarian media: Wave of online hatred in response to articles about Palestine (с БГ превод) Sun, 03 Aug 2014 21:25:15 +0000 Continue reading ]]> Incredible to see what кind of responses an article based on my account about Palestine (which is btw more of an overview of the recent and older events of the conflict rather than straightforward criticism) can cause such a great wave of online hatred against me from fellow Bulgarians who are not only name-calling me, but also urging me to go back to Palestine, put a hijab and don’t dare to speak… (in a milder version).
This brings up two points: one is simply the observation how brainwashed many people in Bulgaria are and how we are thought to associate arabs with terrorism to the point where no logic plays a part.
Point two is, of all 5,000 readers of the piece, there are 20+ negative comments and over 100 likes of comments praising the death of Palestinians, while there is 1 positive comment produced by some critical thinking which by the way was written by my best friend
So what I want to say is this: how come we happen to raise our voice (even if it’s online) only when it is to critique (to put it nicely!) something/somebody? Where is the diversity in opinion? How come no one of all the people who probably resonated with something in the article or at least with the presence of an article that challenges what is usually shown on Bulgarian media in relation to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict cared to write one line of support?
Here’s a request: dare to support VISIBLY whatever you resonate with and want to see more of, because otherwise the much more inadequate but loud voices will control our common reality despite our unspoken dislike.

Невероятно е да видя какви отговори предизвикаха статиите, публикувани от Актуално по разказа ми за скорошните събития в Палестина (които на всичкото отгоре са повече описание на събитията, отколкото директна критика)- а именно вълна от омраза. Сред коментарите имаше голям брой вургални обиди по мой адрес и призоваване да “си ходя обратно в Палестина”, да сложа хиджаб и да не се осмелявам да говоря/пиша.
Това ме навежда на две мисли:
от една страна това е доказателство до каква степен мозъците ни са промити и до колко сме заучили да асоциираме арабите с терористи, без дори да прилагаме в употреба каквато и да било логика и здрав разум.
Второ. макар всяка от статиите да е прочетена повече от 5,000 пъти, има 20+ негативни коментари и повече от 100 харесвания на изказвания от типа “смърт за арабите”. За сметка на това единственият положителен коментар е написан от най-добрият ми приятел
Това, което искам да кажа, е следното: защо се получава така, че се изказваме (пък макар и онлайн) само за да изкритикуваме (меко казано!) нещо или някой? Къде е богатството на мнения? Как така никой от хората, които са прочели статията и които хипотетично резонират с написаното или поне с това, че са налични статии, които се противопоставят на масовото представяне на конфликта, не си е направил труда да напише един ред в подкрепа?

И така, молбата ми е следната: имайте смелостта да подкрепяте ЯВНО тези неща, които ви допадат и от които искате да виждате/да има повече, защото иначе неадекватните, но напористи гласове ще контролират реалността, която споделямe, въпреки неизказаното ни недоволство.

Маги Назер и приятели на празненството по случай отбелязването на международния ден на Йерусалим

Today I attended the Celebration of the International Day of Jerusalem in Sofia which featured talks by the Palestinian and Iranian Embassadors in Bulgaria and other high profile individuals related to the politics of the Middle East. The talks all revolved aroun the current situation in Gaza and on the West Bank, so at the end I asked to adress the public and was actually given the floor without being on the schedule or even knowing the organizers in advance.
I shortly shared my impressions as an intern who has returned from Palestine just 3 days ago and I emphasised on how engaged the Palestinian youth is and how much perseverance despite all I’ve seen in the Palestinian people.
During the event we were also told that today the Bulgarian parliament (?) has accepted a change in the official protocal and will no more use the terms “Occupied Teritorries” in any of the country’s official corespondence. This is a little act of support, but it’s well meant, so it’s appreciated.
So, dear fellow Bulgarians, please, never use the term “Occupied Palestinian Territories”. It’s Palestine. : )

Don’t talk about Palestine Mon, 21 Jul 2014 13:53:54 +0000 Continue reading ]]> Jerusalem old city by Maggie Nazer

Jerusalem old city by Maggie Nazer

I have visited Jerusalem 6 times so far in the past 2 months: more than my Palestinian friends will be allowed to enter it in a lifetime.

For the first time so far the old city of Jerusalem was empty today. I walked alone and people stopped me and gave me gifts for simply being here.

It’s getting more and more dangerous and people are afraid to come. the danger is not only physical. It’s holistic. Your comfort is endangered. Your faith in humanity is endangered. Your ability to live life as you have before, to trust the news, respect your political leaders and rest in your ignorance are all endangered.

So, don’t come to Jerusalem if you can’T bear the truth about all the killed and all the oppressed. Don’t talk about Palestine from the position of a “first world” intellectual while all you know is what your country’s media has told you.

But be aware that you are not safe anywhere. Not anymore. Images will find their way to you, stories will be told even if you try to avoid them. Ignorance is not a choice when it’s responsible for the death of innocent. We will not keep silent.

The suffering of one nation is not limited by its boarders. My stolen childhood is my example. But there are many.

Where to now? Maggie Nazer at the closed Shuhada street in Hebron, west Bank

Where to now?
Maggie Nazer at the closed Shuhada street in Hebron, west Bank

My father didn’t know how to love us because he learned how to defend himself through the means of aggression before he could learn to love. He learned to throw stones before he learned to give roses, or hugs, or kisses. He didn’t feel worthy of love because he learned that as a Palestinian he could have either his life or his freedom and dignity. Never both.

Today I prayed on the grave of Jesus Christ that we will hear of no more death, no matter who’s on the receiving end. I prayed that all people’s dignity, mobility and rights will be respected.

See you soon, Jerusalem; Hebron, don’t forget what we shared; Palestine, we met at last and you are part of me.

My 21st Birthday in Palestine Sat, 12 Jul 2014 16:25:00 +0000 Continue reading ]]> In second grade I invited my classmates and friends from school to celebrate my birthday. My mom and I cooked all day and prepared a one-of-a-kind home-made Barbie-like cake with a real doll inside. It was perfect.

When nobody came I stayed at our apartment’s balcony hoping that people are just late, crying. The only kid who showed up was a girl I used to go to kindergarden with whom I had randomly met and invited the previous day. This girl, Lina Stankova, soon became my best friend and has been a best friend in the true meaning of the word ever since.

As I grew up I stopped being excited for birthdays. I think it was just less painful than expecting much and getting dissapointed, especially on the day the world tells you should be your one “special day”.

Of course, I have had great birthdays afterwards that I have shared with amazing friends.

This year, for the second time, I celebrated my birthday out of my homeland Bulgaria. And this time for the first time in a very long while I allowed myself to really be excited!

May be it’s the culture, or simply the people here, but I have felt so much loved and supported here that I have indeed grown to love this place as my second home which, by the way, it is supposed to be (my father is Palestinian). I’m also happy to say that I have found a place which I not only want to visit again, but to stay at (for a while) and work at.

on 8th of July, my birthday, I was nourished in the love of my students, my colleagues, my cousins, my friends and other beautiful people that I may not have yet had the chance to connect deeply. They all gathered and planned my celebration, gave me beautiful gifts, but most importantly granted me with their attention, their acknowledgement and unconditional positive regard.

I was so delighted to hear my cousin Dana Nazer say she saw the boys from my English classes walking around the Hebron Mall going inside all the women shops to search for a present for me!

Thank you all who were present with me yesterday and who thought of me from across continents! I am deeply touched and so HAPPY!

Happy birthday, Maggie Nazer!

I’m in Palestine. And now I’m afraid. Fri, 11 Jul 2014 23:36:27 +0000 Continue reading ]]> I left the United States two months ago with shaken trust in my fellow human beings. I came to Palestine to offer myself, my knowledge and my skills to the community, but I got much more than I had to give: I was healed.

Gas bomb thrown by soldiersIn the meantime as daily clashes became a routine and as I heard about killed day after day, I refused to protect myself and stop listening. I asked for more. I went to the streets to interview the people, I wrote their stories. Every night my friend Abdelrazzaq offered me his cigarettes and his endless stories, memories, visions for the future…

But after so much death… And still hearing the shootings, the firing of tear gas bombs; the impossibility to fall asleep; to talk or think about anything else…

I’m afraid.
I’m afraid that no hope is left for the humans who strive for revenge, for blood spilled as water.
I’m afraid that Our weapons are not as strong as theirs. That love, humanity and education are not as instantly penetrating the human mind and soul as are the rockets and bullets to the land, the buildings and the flesh.
I’m afraid that if someone is to tell me now that the human nature is evil I will not have the strenght to say: “No!”

[Please, kindly note that while it's my experience this story is not about me. I just hope that this post will make more people think about the present and future of Palestine and all other suffering countries around the world and that we can collectively educate each other and forward the request for change and use social medias for a better cause than liking each other's cute photos and full dishes! Thank you. Love, M. ]

Daily Clashes in Hebron

Daily Clashes in Hebron

Day 1 and Arrival: the magic of excitement Sat, 24 May 2014 14:11:18 +0000 Continue reading ]]> Hebron

A beautiful window of a building in Hebron

I arrived at the Tel Aviv Ben Gurion airport in Israel at 00.15 on the 23rd of May after what I know was the longest and most stressful travel experience I’ve ever had. It all started in New York as I was told I can not board my flight to Moscow as my flight to Tel Aviv would depart from an airport different from the one I would land at and I did not have a Russian visa to be able to travel between the two. After much stress and some tears, I paid an extra fee and got a ticket for another flight from Moscow to Tel Aviv. My first flight of at least 10 hours went by in sleeping and reading books. The Russian carrier Transaereo did not bother to entertain us which was rather unfortunate as I had another 14 hours to spend at the Moscow airport and yet nothing once I read the two books I had on the plane.

I felt very anxious all through my flight to Tel Aviv. As I got of the plane I joined the longest cue I’ve seen at an airport and waited. Everyone showed their documents, answered a few questions and went through. Once it was my turn, I passed my passport. I was asked about my father’s and my grandfather’s names and was immediately addressed to a nearby room where I had to go to be questioned. In fact, apart from the anxiety of not knowing whether you’ll be let in the country or not, the process was not as scary and dramatic as I had it described by others or imagined it. The Israeli staff was quite understanding and friendly. I still had to wait two hours to get my passport, though.

I managed to call my friend Gal who had told me he was going to pick me up from the airport and was readily going to wait for him to come in the next couple of hours. Instead, just five minutes later he showed up and surprised me saying he had been waiting for hours for me to arrive and had even called the emigration office to ask whether they had me! :)

In the morning Gal and his mom left me at the Tel Aviv’s bus station and went to a wedding. As my two miserable suitcases were all broken, I was struggling to make it to the other side of the street but a dark-haired girl helped me carry one. As we talked I was very self-conscious about saying I was half-Palestinian and that I was going to the West Bank as I had no idea if she was an Arab or an Israeli or if it mattered at all. Her name was Nour.

As I got off at Jerusalem I went ahead to get the last bus to Hebron for the day. A cute Boston University rugby guy called Tony helped me with my suitcase and I waited for the Israeli bus to Al Khalil (this is the Arabic name of Hebron).  I wanted to go to the bathroom but I couldn’t leave my suitcases as Nour had told me I should not leave my luggage unattended even for a minute unless I want to get myself into a lot of trouble. In the meantime, another Arab girl asked me to look after her bags which I agreed to do. As she took a while, I grew anxious… She came back soon, but I couldn’t help but acknowledge how all of that was making me feel even after being in the country for just a couple of hours! Since both Israeli and Arabs helped me and welcomed me I felt It was important to yet again remind myself to not project anything to people and simply see them as individuals and not in their stereotypical roles of “oppressors”, “victims”, “terrorists”…

DSCF9044|My colleague Anas from the Hebron Youth Development Resource Center where I’ll be working in the next two months came to pick me up and drove me to the organization’s premises nearby the Northern entrance of the city. I learned from him that some relatives of mine on my father’s side had called him to tell him to “take care of me”. It was clear to me my mom wouldn’t do it as she knows very well how I detest any form of patronizing. I got somewhat mad that someone is giving their permission to someone else to patronize ME, which I will not allow, especially if it exhibits itself in ways that are limiting to my free actions and unrespectful of my free judgement.

Soon after I had arrived, Anas and his friend Muotaz, the other intern- Marin and I went to Betlehem for dinner.

I was suddenly overcome by so much joy and excitement, we frequently stopped the car to just gaze and take photos! I haven’t laughed so badly in months: I was telling Anas he’s giving me stomachache out of laughter!

Sunset nearby Betlehem

I had forgotten to awe at the new things I see. To be grateful. To be trully excited even if it is annoying for the people around me (Anas and Moutaz were making fun of me for being so excitable. Someone else recently told me he has traveled so much now, there is nothing to be excited about anymore. I think I felt this for a while, too). I think you need a certain sense of comfort and ease, and peace of mind to be able to exercise your excitement.

Excitement, however, is for me one of the most crucial qualities of being alive.

This is sooooo cooool!

This is sooooo cooool!

Books that Inspire! For Palestine campaign at Middlebury College Fri, 25 Apr 2014 21:31:36 +0000 Continue reading ]]> Books for Palestine

Thanks to the Center for Careers and Internships (CCI) at Middlebury College, this summer I will intern in Hebron Youth Development Resource Center (YDRC) in the West Bank, Palestine. This is the first of a series of initiatives I am planning to implement hoping to contribute for the empowerment of young people in Palestine.

Books are the easiest way for new ideas to be brought in, contemplated, adapted, transformed and disseminated! The right to books and ensuring the availability of books should be of uttermost importance.

The collection of new (published in the last 10 years!) books in good condition and covering various topics related to youth will be collected and brought to Palestine to be exhibited and made available to young people at the youth social hub in Hebron YDRC. The campaign has already be generously supported by CTLR. Further enrichment of the value of the campaign will be sending positive encouragements or inspirational messages along with the books to create an opportunity for human connection.

The current campaign emphasizes on quality over quantity: the books meeting the requirements set will be brought in Palestine within my luggage for no additional cost (I will not take much luggage on this trip since I’m going home to Bulgaria afterwards) and will not cause any further ecological harm (other than being made of paper, i.e. trees).

Feel free to message me for more information whether or not you want to donate a book! E-mail Maggie Nazer at

I’m all for this settlement. Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:55:24 +0000 Massar, which calls itself a “Consultancy firm, providing investment promotion, management solutions and development services to the Palestinian private and public sectors.” based in Ramallah, has begun working on the first ever ‘Palestinian settlement‘ in the West Bank. There are roadblocks along the way (ie: the Oslo Accords), but they’re bulldozing right through them (pun very much intended, Daniel Varisco has permanently rubbed off on me). Primarily funded by the Qatari government, Rawabi is the name of the intended first ever Palestinian city, meant to provide a place with a higher standard of living in the West Bank.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed for this settlement.

Identity Prospecting Mon, 22 Feb 2010 16:54:53 +0000 In the latest step in the on-going conflict over memory-rights and the Holy Land, Benjamin Netanyahu decided today to include two shrines located in the West Bank – among them the Cave of the Patriarchs – in the list of Israeli national heritage sites. For those of you unfamiliar, the Cave of the Patriarchs is considered holy by the whole Abrahamic tradition and is thought to be the resting place of Abraham and a few others of Biblical note.  The stories can be read here, here and here. As is its wont, the New York Times ran a story that you had to know existed to read.

It is easy to appreciate the significance of this move given the rhetoric and the people cheering for it, namely, that ‘…Our existence depends not only on the IDF or our economic resilience – it is anchored in…the national sentiment that we will bestow upon the coming generations and in our ability to justify our connection to the land,” to take that wholesale from Ha-Aretz. This is not new, but it is reflective of past policies of landscape and memory claiming that have taken place in Israel and the West Bank more specifically.

We know that historical memory is a touchy subject, but it’s especially touchy in this case because it maintains the tradition of mingling national identity with religion. While it is unclear what real effects will be felt now that they are on a register of Israeli historical sites, it is obvious that the Palestinian reaction has not been welcoming, again pointing to discrimination and an effort to wipe them off the historical map. That the government would budget 500,000 shekels for the ‘renovation’ of these sites struck me as particularly ominous.

If we want peace – two-state solution, one-state solution, whatever – it cannot be achieved by claiming sites of historical memory. It just can’t. If there is to be some modicum of peace between Palestinians and Israelis, it has to be on the basis of shared heritage, not cultural domination. Mark Regev commented that ‘the list was not meant to set borders,’ but it has already violated some of the most important borders, all of this even if we discount settlement activity and the fact that Hebron is smack in the middle of the West Bank. Israeli conservatives (and the Israeli government) should consider that strengthening the Israeli national narrative comes, sometimes, at the cost of prospects for peace with those troublesome Palestinians, who have their own legitimate historical connection to the land.

Look, I do not know what will actually come of this aside from the emotional responses (which are powerful enough on their own), but I cannot help but think of how beautiful this sight could be in the future: Muslims, Christians and Jews worshiping their shared forefathers. Instead, it has been a battleground for the soul of the Holy Land, and looks like it will continue to be so, at least in the near future.

Knowing What NOT To Do

In this Fast Company blog entry, on "Leading Ideas: Know What NOT To Do:

"A client of mine uses a powerful tool to help his executive team decide what not to do with their time. He has each member keep a pie chart of where his/her energy is focused. When new projects come along, they discuss how sections and percentages should shift. "You've got to know where your energy should and shouldn't go each day," he explains. "Sometimes it's obvious and sometimes it's not. We've found explicitly talking about it every few months helps. Team members tend to feel more empowered in what they're doing and are more successful as a result."

BOTTOMLINE: From an organizational perspective, Discipline I-F, Agree What To Stop (Six Disciplines for Excellence, pages 76-79) helps each Team Member to understand what projects/initiatives to stop applying energy / resources to.

More importantly however, is Discipline IV-D, Prioritize Daily (pages 161-163). If you wait to do it "every few months" as suggested above, performance goes unchecked and alignment deteriorates rapidly.

Supporting Organizational Change

Introducing change within an organization is not easy.

Team leaders may feel that team members tend to resist change, are not supportive or are trying to make things difficult.

Esther Derby offers her 10 lessons on Supporting Organizational Change
  1. Communicate a Compelling Reason to Change
  2. Communicate Formally and Informally
  3. Personalize the Message: What Does This Mean for Me?
  4. Acknowledge the Unknowns
  5. Surface Rumors and Fill in the Blanks
  6. Practice What You Preach
  7. Acknowledge and Build on What People Value
  8. Reframe Resistance
  9. People Do Not Resist Change, They Resist Coercion
  10. Empathize
BOTTOMLINE: Anytime change is being introduced into an organization, there is resistance and a strong likelihood that it will not take hold or last. When leaders understand how to manage change, the likelihood accelerates, can change behaviors and attitudes, and help to create a new organizational culture.

(Tip of the hat to Leon Ho at for this one!)

Jean Alesi confirmed to drive with Newman/Haas Lotus at next month’s Indy 500

Ex-Formula One driver, Jean Alesi, signed a contract with Newman/Haas yesterday to compete in the legendary Indianapolis 500 on 27th May 2012. Doubts had been growing over Alesi’s chance of competing in the race, after one of Lotus’ partners, HVM Racing owner Keith Wiggins, saying the money isn’t there to support an extra seat.

The difficulties experienced by Lotus in producing sufficient race engines for the series, exacerbated by recurring electrical problems experienced during the first race of the season at St Petersburg, have cast further doubts on Norfolk company’s ability to support Alesi’s one-off outing.

Newman/Haas originally announced last December they would not be competing in the 2012 Indy 500, but presumably somebody has come up with the money to make the deal work. Carl Haas’ team has been assisting Dragon Racing with its Lotus-powered cars, after being sidelined this season due to a lack of sponsorship.

47-year old Alesi will race at the Brickyard for the first time in his career, wearing the Centigraphe Sport watch on his wrist, with F.P.Journe emblazoned down the side of the black-and-gold Lotus-powered Dallara DW12.

Alesi’s decision to drive at Indianapolis is motivated by his role as a Lotus ambassador who participate in the IndyCar Series this year as an engine supplier, and also support the company’s marketing of its road cars as it seeks to raise its profile in the US.

Whilst the partnership between Lotus and F.P.Journe can be explained by the usual reasons (shared values, innovation, precision craftsmanship..), the partnership also cements the relationship between founder François-Paul Journe and Jean Alesi – two friends from the south of France with a shared passion for beauty through technology.

Jonathan Cavier – “January” (single)

Originally from Northern California, Cavier (pronounced “cav-AIR”) has been based in Phoenix, AZ for several years and up until recently was performing as Alan Clark in atmospheric pop duo EyeTalk. Over the course of ten years and five albums, this venture saw Cavier’s music reach audiences as far-flung as Italy, the UK, and Australia. After five albums and hundreds of shows played throughout the US, Jonathan Cavier has reimagined himself and has formed a new musical identity on his debut solo album Premier. In addition to his musical endeavors, Cavier is a semi-professional tennis player and a member of the USTA and IFT. Cavier says that practicing and playing in tournaments is like “the fountain of youth.”

“January” is the first single from Premier, Cavier’s debut solo album. The twelve songs on Premiere merge his varied pop and rock influences from the 80s and today, resulting in a fresh take on pop music.

I don’t know what being a semi-pro tennis player and a musician is like but I do know a lot of musicians who play amateur tennis, so this doesn’t come as such a surprise to me. But rest assured it has nothing to do with this new single. But Cavier is no rookie, and it shows tremendously on this well-written cut. It raises curiosity about his whole album but the focus of this review is the single. So, sticking to it, the track starts out with a nice kick from the snappy drumming to be featured. But the vocals take over before a nice string arrangement backs him. It’s all about starting over and making a new beginning. Just like a new year that way. It’s obvious by the title that’s what it would be about, but it is what it is, and very descriptive.

It’s great how Cavier contains himself to three minutes and it just works. But there are always downsides, and the pace could possibly be the only one sensed. It’s constructed like any soft pop tune, so it’s delicately balanced with traditional values. The production is spot on as well. I like the twelve string acoustic sweeping away as the song goes on. And I’m not familiar with his background myself. I’m just going off this one track, so rating the artist as well is the challenge done through research. And it’s obvious from that standpoint that he’s experienced. But the point is, it’s obvious by listening to “January,” as well. And it’s nice to hear a certain flawlessness which comes from that. But saying all of that I’m not super thrilled over his lyrics. But willing to hear more.

I don’t even know how any of it compares to EyeTalk, which is the duo he comes from. But after five albums it is easy to tell said experience. But coming from that perspective there is nothing to complain about either. It’s just that it’s always better to know a few things so I did check out EyeTalk but it would take more that I’ve heard to give an opinion or comparison between the two. I just remember there being another band of that name. What I do get from both is a very David Bowie meets Morrisey vibe. I can appreciate that, as I like groups like Roxy Music and others. But this single is a very original piece of music, actually. Even though influences are felt they are also clearly further away than to be expected concerning that.

There is no denying to me that a good album is behind this, and I’d like to hear that because I know it would give me a much better opinion of this track. But to rate it on its own it is pretty good as indicated, but that doesn’t mean it’s everyone’s cup of tea. I’m sure there is more upbeat stuff to be heard on the album though. As I don’t imagine it to be full of this speed, which is either your cup of tea or not. And not knowing if it is all acoustic or not doesn’t take anything away from it for me because I like that. But I also wouldn’t mind hearing something more electrifying as well. But the bass has punch too, it’s a pretty well featured rhythm section altogether.

In closing the rest is yet to be heard, but this single is a good start by definition. It’s not perfect but nevertheless it has a great deal of perfection. And as a result it has me looking around at EyeTalk for this combined with horns, and liking Cavier himself as an artist, which is something to behold from this single. The consensus happens to be that he is good, no matter how good “January” is.
