It was a first for Mark Chesnutt.

It was a first for Mark Chesnutt.

"I've never done an interview while doin' my grocery shoppin' before," the veteran country singer said with a laugh. "My wife's probably gonna be wonderin' what the heck all this stuff is."

Some of it was "really big, seasoned cowboy bacon hamburger patties."

Chesnutt's got three teenage sons - one of them's a football player - to feed at home in Beaumont, Texas.

A country music traditionalist whose down-home style has fed a 24-year career of record- and hit-making, Chesnutt still reflects the small-town ethos that's helped sustain real-deal southeast Texas musicians such as George Jones - a major influence on Chesnutt's life and career - Tracy Byrd and Clay Walker.

The 49-year-old singer, songwriter and guitar player will be relying upon his roots Friday when his four-piece band plays an acoustic show at Lodi's Hutchins Street Square.

He's also got that wry, wizened, Texas wit. His 23-year-old music company is called Nada Dinero.

"Oh, it's just a little cute name my manager decided on when we started," Chesnutt said with a chuckle. "We couldn't understand why there was no money. When you think about it, though, if someone tried to sue us, who'd wanna sue a company called 'no money?' "

Being penniless, however, hasn't been much of an issue since Chesnutt got going in 1988, when the new traditionalists rolled into Nashville, Tenn. He's released 14 recordings and totaled nine No. 1 country singles.

He'll cover lots of that familiar territory Friday.

"My four-piece acoustic (group) is really, really impressive," Chesnutt said.

"The audience gets to request songs and we play off each other. Sometimes, we do songs you'd never expect from us. I'm not gonna say. People have to see for themselves. It's wild and unplugged and unplanned."

That kind of was the case with Chesnutt's career. His father, Bob, was a record collector and role model. Mark dropped out of high school as a sophomore and started earning his country-music diploma.

"My daddy was a singer," said Chesnutt, who played and sang in his dad's bands for 10 years. "He taught me everything I know. I had a lot of background I just inherited. I just started singin'. I kept singin'. One thing led to another and here I am today.

"Daddy had regional records. He didn't wanna live up in Nashville. It was a crazy life."

Chesnutt's followed that example, preferring the comparative calm of home despite his five platinum-selling albums - including "Too Cold at Home" (1990), "Long Necks & Short Stories" (1992) and "Almost Gooodbye" (1993).

Fortunately, Chesnutt's success had started by November 1990, when Bob Chesnutt died from a heart attack at age 56.

"He said, 'If you're gonna drop out of high school, you can't stop,' " Chesnutt recalled. "He'd keep his foot up my butt: 'Don't get off on the wrong foot and be a bum.' He saw the initial success. He was really excited and scared at the same time."

However, Jones - the 81-year-old Country Music Hall of Fame member from Saratoga, Texas - had been a lifelong musical buddy and friend of Chesnutt's dad.

"He called when daddy died and said, 'If you ever need any advice just call me,' " Chesnutt said. "I've been friends with Waylon Jennings and Merle Haggard. It's just been a dream come true to still be doing what I love to do. It's just a blessing."

The two Hank Williamses, Haggard, Jennings, George Strait and Willie Nelson made major impacts on Chesnutt while "George was probably the biggest. I got started in a lot of the same clubs he did."

Chesnutt, also a major Elvis Presley admirer who enjoyed the '70s rock of Van Halen and Aerosmith, proudly points out the southeast Texas roots of Janis Joplin, Harry James and ZZ Top.

Chesnutt, who performed at the San Joaquin County Fair in 2001 and during a KAT Country show at Stockton's Weber Point Events Center in 2011, isn't stuck in the Texas backwoods, though.

He's been trying some new things and gets a kick out of watching slicked-up prime-time country music awards shows that help expand the music's audience.

"Live From the Big D," his independently released 2011 live album, is a "retro thing" recorded 10 years ago at a Dallas club. Chesnutt's band was touring with Strait, a fellow Texan and Stetson hat man.

Even back then, "we were experimenting with some new gear we'd just acquired," Chesnutt said. "We were learning how to work it. We were free to do anything we wanted. We thought, 'You know what? This is really, really cool.' Some guys are playing horns."

Chesnutt does remain a bit mystified by "Your Room," a project released on Aug. 26 that he "kind of thought was a little weird."

Recorded in Los Angeles, it's a 3D Blu-ray production Chesnutt hasn't seen yet.

"I thought, we ought to give it a shot," he said. "We had nothing to lose. I'm the first country artist to try it. We tried to get the sound right and it took a lot of time. It was frustrating.

"I have three copies, but I don't have the equipment to play them. My managers are all raving. They say it's really great. Really cool. We're gonna have a viewing party so I can see it."

Right at home in Beaumont, of course.

"I prefer to stay here with friends and family," said Chesnutt, who's been married to Tracie, a painter and photographer, for 20 years: "She's very talented, a great mother and a great cook."

Even when Mark does the shopping.

Novel DNA-Sensing Pathway In Immune Response To Malaria

Until very recently, it was unclear why infection with malaria causes fever and, under severe circumstances, an infectious death. Although the parasite has an abundance of potentially toxic molecules, no one knew which ones were responsible for the inflammatory syndrome associated with disease. Now, a new study identifies a novel DNA-sensing mechanism that plays a role in the innate immune response to the parasite that causes malaria. The findings, published online August 4th by Cell Press in the journal Immunity, provide new insight into how the immune system detects malaria and may have broad implications for treatment of multiple infectious diseases.

Malaria, the world's most common infectious disease, is caused by the parasite Plasmodium falciparum. Previous studies have implicated a role for Toll-like receptor (TLR) proteins in the host's ability to sense microbial pathogens like P. falciparum. TLRs are thought to detect regions of pathogen DNA that contain repeats of cytosine and guanine bases and regulate production of the immune chemical type I interferon. However, P. falciparum DNA is made predominantly of adenine (A) and thymine (T) bases and, thus far, a role for nucleic acid sensors in malaria has not been fully explored.

"Although TLR9 has been implicated in regulating type I interferon production during malaria in humans and mice, the unusually high A and T content in the DNA of P. falciparum prompted us to examine the possibility that malarial DNA triggers TLR9-independent DNA sensing pathways," says one of the study's senior authors, Dr. Douglas T. Golenbock from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Dr. Golenbock and colleagues showed that the AT-rich regions of the P. falciparum genome potently induced production of type I interferons via a novel TLR9-independent pathway. The researchers went on to show that the AT-rich DNA sensing involved an unknown receptor that coupled to molecules previously linked with DNA-mediated type I interferon production.

Taken together, the results suggest that this novel AT-rich DNA sensing pathway is important in the immune response to Plasmodial infection and may play a role in other infections as well. "As all organisms are defined by their DNA, it should not be surprising that it constitutes one of the most potent and specific immune activators," concludes study coauthor Dr. Kate Fitzgerald. "The importance of DNA recognition and type I interferon production is only now beginning to be appreciated in a large spectrum of infectious illnesses. In view of our results, as well as the emerging literature on DNA sensing, we predict that immune recognition of DNA will be an increasingly common theme in pathogenesis."

Patent applications on the OncoMouse were filed back in the mid-1980s in a number of countries such as the United States, Canada, Europe and Japan.

In Canada, the Supreme Court rejected the patent in 2002 in Harvard College v. Canada (Commissioner of Patents), overturning a Federal Court of Appeal verdict which ruled in favor of the patent. However, on October 7, 2003, Canadian patent 1,341,442 CA 1341442 was granted to Harvard College. The patent was modified to exclude the “composition of matter” claims on the transgenic mice. The Supreme Court had rejected the whole patent application on the basis of these claims, but Canadian patent law enabled the modified claims to grand under pre-GATT rules and the patent remains valid until 2020.

European patent application 58304490.7 was filed in June of 1985 by “The President and Fellows of Harvard College”. It was, at first, refused in 1989 by an Examining Division of the European Patent Office among other things on the basis that the European Patent Convention (EPC) excludes patentability of animals per se. The decision was appealed and the Board of Appeal held that animal varieties were excluded of patentability by the EPC, while animals were not excluded from patentability. The Examining Division then granted the patent in the year 1992.

The European patent was then opposed by several third parties, more specifically by 17 opponents, especially on the grounds laid out in Article 53(a) EPC, according to which inventions, the publication or exploitation of which would be contrary to “ordre public” or morality are excluded from patentability. After oral proceedings occurred in November of 2001, the patent was maintained in a modified form. This decision was then appealed and the appeal decision was taken on July 6, 2004. The case was ultimately remitted to the first instance, with the order to maintain the patent on a newly modified form. However, revocation of the patent was finally published on August 16, 2006, more than 20 years after the filing date, for failure to pay the fees and to file the translations of the modified claims under Rule 58(5) EPC 1973.

In 1988, the United States Patent and Trademark Office granted U.S. Patent 4,736,866 to Harvard College claiming “a transgenic non-human mammal whose germ cells and somatic cells contain a recombinant activated oncogene sequence introduced into said mammal…” The claim clearly excluded humans, apparently reflecting moral and legal concerns about patents on human beings, and about modification of the human genome. Surprisingly, there were no US courts called to decide on the legitimacy of this patent. Two separate patents were issued to Harvard College covering techniques for providing a cell culture from a transgenic non-human animal and testing techniques using transgenic mice expressing an ontogeny. The patent has been found to expire in 2005 by the USPTO. DuPont is presently bringing suit in the Eastern District of Virginia.

Green (AFI Fest 2011)

Green is a peculiar film, oddly charming, eerie, lingering, I'm still digesting it. As I sat through the film I wasn't sure how it would end, and I liked that. There were times when I found certain characters annoyingly pretentious (the farmer-blogger boyfriend) but thankfully moments of depth surfaced, and eventually I found him likable enough. Sophia Takal is by far the stand-out actor of the piece, her character sparked the brightest, her performance kept me captivated through the lulls of the story. Takal also holds the title of writer/director and Green marks a noteworthy entrance. If you're looking for a conventional Hollywood love-triangle then be forewarned, Green travels more subtle waters. But if you're interested in something a little less neat, strangely potent and thought-provoking you're on the right boat.
An intimate friendship between two women dissolves as they are drawn into an irrational, destructive spiral of jealousy and paranoid fantasy in this haunting examination of the female psyche.
You can catch an encore screening of Green at the AFI Fest presented by Audi on Saturday, Nov. 5th at 10p.m. For more info visit

Orlando Who? Katy Perry Grabbed This Artist's Butt On The iHeartRadio Red Carpet

Newly single Katy Perry has a new haircut and apparently a new lease on life. The singer has never shied away from the colorful, but her new pixie cut seems to have liberated her to an even greater degree.
What do we mean? Well, she appears to be running around grabbing butts on the iHeartRadio Awards red carpet. Specifically, male butts. More specifically, male butts attached to one Shawn Mendes.
Mendes is performing and is nominated for three awards tonight, but none of that protected him from a drive-by butt grab by Katy Perry. Watch the moment below.
Now, normally we wouldn't condone random acts of butt grabbing. But Katy Perry messing with a Fellow Celeb during a red carpet interview is pretty harmless, so we're going to give her a pass on this one.
Especially since Perry didn't stop there. She wasn't just grabbing butts; she was also grabbing... our hearts. Here she is, enthusiastically dabbing her way onto the red carpet.
And here she is showing some fans some love.
This all makes sense once you realize how excited she was. She was so excited, in fact, that she wore pants suitable for high kicking.

Jk they're pants. 👍🏼

A post shared by Jamie Mizrahi (@sweetbabyjamie) on

May we all one day be as enthusiastic about something as Katy Perry was for the iHeartRadio Music Awards red carpet.
Hey everyone,
Thanks so much for your valuable feedback. You're right — sexual harassment and assault are never okay, regardless of whether it's perpetrated by a man or a woman. We never intend on normalizing or condoning sexual assault, and when it seems like we have, we appreciate our readers calling us out on it. We made a mistake with this story, and for that reason, we apologize.
If you have experienced sexual violence and are in need of crisis support, please call the RAINN Sexual Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).

The Dirty Little Secret About E-Mail That No One Wants to Talk About

Irvine, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/9/2006 -- Here’s the dirty little secret about e-mail that no one wants to talk about: most American workers have poor writing skills. Blame it on the schools, blame it on TV, blame it on whatever you want, but the ugly truth is that we have a serious problem on our hands.

The results of a 2004 survey by the National Commission on Writing conclude that “One-third of the employees in the nation’s blue-chip companies wrote poorly and those businesses were spending as much as $3.1 billion annually on remedial training.”

A 2005 National Commission on Writing survey of human resource directors who oversee nearly 2.7 million state government employees showed similar dismal results. “Although 70% of state managers said large majorities of their professional employees had adequate skills, just one-third said clerical and support staff did. The report estimates the states spend $221 million annually on remedial writing training.”

Poorly written e-mails waste time and cost companies millions of dollars in lost productivity. According to Information Mapping, 65% of workers waste 1 to 3 hours per day reading and writing e-mails. One British company estimated it wastes over $39 million a year to have employees write and read unnecessary e-mails.

Time wasting e-mails are basically the result of employees not knowing how to compose well organized e-mail and not knowing how to clearly present their message. Critical information is missing, or the message rambles on and is too wordy. The e-mail recipient is confused and doesn’t know how to reply.

Internet writing expert Michelle Howe understands the problems companies face. Her company, InternetWordMagic.com, specializes in improving online communication. Her E-Mail Productivity System™ is a customized training program that covers the issues of business writing, e-mail etiquette, e-mail security and the liabilities of e-mail.

According to Howe, “I can tell you from first-hand experience that employees desperately want this training and are grateful to get the knowledge they need to do their jobs better. For most employees, it has been a long time since they have been in school and they have forgotten quite a bit of what they learned. My pre-test scores show the employees are unable to answer basic grammar and writing questions. Pre-test scores usually show a failure rate of 78 to 100%. After training, the employees’ post-test scores are often a remarkable zero to 10% failure rate. They want to learn and they do learn.”

Poor writing skills may be the symptom, but the disease is poor communication. Having a written e-mail policy in place is not enough. All employees (including management) need on-going e-policy education that teaches them business writing skills, correct e-mail etiquette and the consequences involved when using e-mail inappropriately.

Doyle encourages Rapids residents to sign up for free energy audits

From a news release issued by Governor Jim Doyle:

Wisconsin Rapids, Wis. (August 11, 2009) - Governor Jim Doyle today urged Wisconsin Rapids homeowners to take advantage of Recovery-funded projects and sign up for free energy inspections by young workers in an Energy Advocate project led by the Department of Workforce Development (DWD).

"These young workers can help you save on your utility bills and conserve energy," Governor Doyle said. "During their visit, they can install free energy saving devices such as a low-flow showerhead. Wisconsin is receiving more than $141 million for weatherization under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Our energy advocates can help you take an important, first step to big savings."

The project is one of many ARRA-funded efforts that will employ approximately 4,000 Wisconsin young adults statewide through June 2011. With federal ARRA funds, Governor Doyle provided 25 individuals, 18 to 24 years of age, employment in "green jobs," while also helping homeowners cut utility bills, save money and conserve energy.

Focus on Energy, Wisconsin's energy efficiency and renewable energy initiative, has partnered with the DWD and the Northcentral WI Workforce Development Board, to offer Together We Save-a summer program dedicated to helping residents in select communities save energy and money at home.

Wisconsin Rapids is one of five cities chosen for the Energy Advocate project. These five cities were selected based on high unemployment, predominantly older homes and many young people seeking jobs. The ARRA-funded project provides for five energy advocates in each community for the Together We Save effort. . . .

Participation is limited
Together We Save presents homeowners a limited-time opportunity to save energy and money with energy efficient improvements that are good for them, their families, and the environment. Interested residents are encouraged to learn more about the program and schedule their home energy audits by calling (715) 459-2547.

“I repotted it in the Imperial Monterey Orchid Mix that I had on hand, with a sad bloom or two still trying to hang on. Since then, it began growing new roots and leaves.

- Suzanne S.

“My phals grown in the Phal Monterey Gold Imperial mix retain older leaves longer, grow more new leaves and double or branch spikes. They LOVE it. And so do I.”
- Joanne G.

“Since I had such success with that mix and the Paph mix, I have converted some of my Phals to the Imperial Mix...they are showing the same results. Strong growth, good roots and spikes. Your mixes are always fresh and distinctive. I have found nothing on the market like them and recommend them to all my orchid friends. Not sure what you put in them but keep it up.”
- Cindy B.

“I had to write to you to tell you how much my orchids love your mixes. The first one tried was the Oncidium Imperial Mix. They doubled in size and needed to be repotted or divided after a year. I then tried the (Paph and Phrag) mix and again, success As you say, You Know Mixes. Thanks for keeping your commitement!”
- Cynthia B.

“I received the potting mix and I have to say that it is wonderful!! I was skeptical to spend a little extra money for the bark mix when I can go to Lowe's and get it for a fraction of the price. But...your mix speaks for itself! So clean, nice and easy to work with. It's the best and I plan on buying for you all again and again. Thanks so much!!”
- Alicia S.

Q: What should I do when roots come through openings in the pot (Net, Slotted, Oxygen Core etc.)?

A: Orchids are notorious for sending roots every different which way. That's not so surprising since orchids growing in the wild are free to extend their roots in search of moisture, food, support and light. There are a few schools of thought on how best to deal with adventurous roots. For example, with Net pots one can snip away the pot if needed when the time comes, and another is to move the plant up to the next size before the roots get too established working through the net material. Slotted pots can be similarly cut or snipped away from roots when the time comes to repot or it is necessary to move the plant up or out of its existing container.

Oxygen Core Dual Pots create a very favorable growing environment and root growth is likely to be quite vigorous soon after potting in them. One can use the inner pot until the roots start to expand and then remove the plant from it and place it back into the outer shell (kind of like taking training wheels off a child's bike).

Vigorous healthy root growth is a good thing, and supports an overall happy and healthy orchid that will produce strong leaves and beautiful flowers. Managing the repotting process so plants are able to develop a strong and expanding root zone is an important part of the equation.

Are retailers really getting the most out of their Store Associates?

Send to friend

As the store evolves to support a complex, omnichannel retailer experience, the role of the Store Associate is changing. But, do retailers know what their Store Associates are doing right now? How can they maximise the value of each Store Associate? And, is there any activity greater in importance than consumer engagement in store?

Gareth Thomas, Retail Business Consultant at Zetes explains the importance of optimising Store Associate activity to not only prioritise excellent customer engagement but also improve efficiency and transform profitability.

Understanding in-store activity

The role of the high street store has changed fundamentally over the past decade – and with it the day to day activities of the Store Associate. While it is now a given that retailers will offer click and collect and buy online and return in store; increasingly self-informed and empowered customers heading in store also expect a Store Associate to offer a far more engaging and personal shopping experience.

But where does that leave the Store Associate now tasked with multiple roles from fulfilling click and collect orders to managing inventory, replenishing shelves and selling? How can a retailer manage these diverse in-store activities to maximise productivity and efficiency and achieve a great customer experience? Does the retailer have the tools to react to real-time demands such as in-store order fulfilment and are they able to manage and prioritise their store resources? How much time is being spent on these activities? Are retailers setting new Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that reflect the new in-store complexity – for example, do staff prioritise greeting a customer over replenishing stock, or simply wait for a customer to make the first approach?

Right now, the vast majority (69%)* of retailers have no insight into the way Store Associates spend their time and, therefore, no way of determining how to optimise any aspect of activity. Of those retailers that can monitor activity, Store Associates typically spend 30% of their time managing inventory, including inventory management and replenishment in the back of the store.

Of course, a Store Associate's primary role is still improving sales through direct customer engagement. However, increasing customer expectations and their changing behaviour, along with the fact that for almost a third of the time Store Associates are not customer facing are all having a significant implication for in-store revenue and long-term loyalty and this cannot be ignored. Customers are simply more empowered and impatient; they are checking products online before entering the store and if a product is not on the shelf, the vast majority will just walk back out. And if they do ask a Store Associate, they want information fast – with 30% prepared to wait less than two minutes for information; 70% leaving within five.

How can a retailer empower their Store Associates to effectively juggle all of these requirements to both achieve profitability through improved productivity and meet customer expectations in order to maximise sales?

Empowering Associates

Clearly the number one priority has to be to provide Store Associates with a real-time view of inventory – something achieved by just 36% of retailers to date - preferably via a mobile device to ensure a customer query can be answered on the shop floor. However, while this will improve the quality of the customer interaction, it does not address the 'multi-job' challenge and the fact that a great customer experience can only be delivered by an available associate, not by one stuck in the stock room.

In addition to the real-time view, streamlining logistics processes such as inventory receipting and automated flagging of inventory gaps on the shelf can reduce the time spent handling stock. Critically, it is about leveraging real-time information to improve task management and using this information to dynamically prioritise and allocate the task activities of the store associates.

As the store increasingly becomes a multi-purpose location, retailers need to become far more prescriptive about each employee's objectives, setting clear KPIs for each task. In addition to a real-time view of inventory and slick inbound logistics, improving these tasks will also require improved analytics and insight into the overall store performance. By analysing all Store Associate activity and assessing its impact on the store's overall revenue, a retailer will be able to undertake a continual reassessment and optimisation of task management and therefore get the most out of each staff member in-store; increasing their value for both the business and its customers.

2011 BMW 3-Series Coupe and Convertible

A brand-new turbocharged engine makes its way into the 2011 3-Series.

Advertisement - Continue Reading Below

Looking at the list of available exterior colors for the new Coupe and Convertible, both available this spring, its surprising that green is absent. Instead, BMW has decided to include green under the hood in the form of a brand-new turbocharged engine.

The 2011 BMW 335i uses the N55 engine, which is the first inline-6 by to combine turbocharging with direct fuel injection and Valvetronic intake technology in a gasoline-powered engine. The 3.0-liter unit produces 300 bhp at 5800 rpm and 300 lb.-ft of torque from 1200-5000 rpm, thanks to the new turbocharger. It's a twin-scroll turbo that's said to eliminate lag. By maintaining a proper separation of exhaust streams in the "twin-scrolling" housing, this new turbo builds pressure faster than the two separate turbos in the while helping reduce overall powertrain weight. This means the 2011 335i is quicker off the line—the car hits 60 mph in claimed 5.3 seconds for the coupe, 5.5 seconds for the convertible.

As for the 2011 BMW 328i, the 3.0-liter N52 engine generates 230 bhp and 200 lb.-ft of torque and features weight-saving construction that drops the engine to a svelte 357 lb. The aluminum and magnesium inline-6 has hollow camshafts, improved combustion chambers, higher fuel-injection pressure and an evolved variable valve timing system. The 328i, can also be fitted with xDrive, BMW's all-wheel drive.

Apart from the new developments under the hood, BMW has added a few external enhancements intended to turn the already easily recognized BMW into unmistakably a 3 Series. Familiar BMW Xenon Adaptive Headlights with corona light ring accents are illuminated, but the fresh taillight design is exclusive to the 3 Series. The kidney grille stays constant, as does the high shoulder accent line. Lengthening the wheelbase and retaining short overhangs, however, give the 3 Series a great new profile.

Most popular Annual events in Austin, TX

Start your Austin, Texas New Year off right and take advantage of the festivals and recurring events that take place here in January. In addition to all the other attractions, live music venues, and restaurants the city is known for, there are a number of other annual events you won't want to miss.
Here are three popular annual Austin January events:
#1. MLK Celebration - March and Festival
Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday is commemorated in Austin each year with a community march downtown with some important stops along the way and which culiminates in an annual Cultural Festival. The march typically begins on the campus of the University of Texas with a brief ceremony and then proceeds to the State Capitol for another brief ceremony. Marchers then continue to the campus of nearby Huston-Tillotson University in East Austin. The Cultural Festival that follows celebrates Dr. King's legacy and Austin's rich cultural diversity.
#2. Star of Texas Tattoo Art Revival
A 3-4 day festival, the annual Star of Texas Tattoo Art Revival is where you want to be if you love tattoos, want to compare yours with others, or are looking to get a new tattoo from some of the best artists in the Austin area. With plenty of after parties each night, this has become a very cool and fun Austin tradition.
#3. FronteraFest
FronteraFest is a month long theater festival featuring original alternative live theater in an unjuried format. Organized and mostly hosted by Hyde Park Theatre, FronteraFest has been an Austin tradition since 1994. There are categories for both full length plays (The Long Fringe) as well as evenings comprised of multiple performances lasting less than 20 minutes (The Short Fringe).

About Rob Bell

Rob Bell Marketing and Internet ProRob Bell is an award-winning Marketer & Internet Professional from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, in the North of England.

Born in the early 70s, the Son of a Coalman bankrupted in the 80s' Miner's Strike, Rob was majorly into computers from an early age, owning his first - a Sinclair ZX80 - at the age of 8. A reluctant child prodigy, promoted into classes with children much older than himself, Rob won a scholarship to study at boarding school, Silcoates School, in Wrenthorpe, West Yorkshire. He won a number of awards, certificates and bursaries in his 10 years there, and left with 11 O Levels, 2 AO Levels and 4 A Levels, "all without too much revising", he claims. He was also Captain of Hockey and a keen Athlete, completed the Chief Scout's Challenge, played lead and support roles in several school plays, taught rock climbing, abseiling and outdoor pursuits, won the Public Speaking contest, and sang in a school band and the choir for many years. "I never felt like I fitted in though" he remembers.

After a year out, spent working in a clothes store, as a Lifeguard and Forestry Ranger, "To get some real-world experience, and actually study with people my own age finally" he explains, he briefly attended The University of Newcastle in 1990 studying English Linguistics, Computer Science and Sports Science as a 'Combined Studies' degree. Although he enjoyed the location and the University, "the course was too fragmented - I needed something more focused". He left after one term, returning to Wakefield to work until the following Academic Year - in which he had secured a place at the prestigious Bradford University School of Management.

"I nearly didn't make it to Bradford. An unfortunate accident on holiday briefly left me dead (seriously - until I was resuscitated) after I was towed into a moored up speedboat rather fast in one of those doughnut tyre-like inflatables. After being dragged out of the water (thanks for that, man whose name I never found out), getting undrowned and packed off in an ambulance, I eventually came round 4 days later - I had no idea of where I was initially, until I spotted the drip in my arm - that gave away that it was a hospital, and the guy in a bed next to me with a bandage round his head too pretty much confirmed that. The accident left me with a small hole in my brain, although they didn't have to operate and told me it would self repair - I think it kind of did, heh - and 9 stitches in my left elbow, where the speedboat handrail stuck into it!"

This was only a few weeks before his first term, although he recovered without missing any time off Uni - and moved into Halls on the second week of term.

Rob Bell studied at Bradford University Management Centre"University was the making of me" states Rob, without any semblance of doubt. "I expanded my horizons, and had an all round amazing experience". On the hockey team, and a member of the Technical Services Association - where he worked as Head DJ at University Gigs throughout his studies, getting to meet and play with acts like Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, the Stereo MCs, Carter, Cornershop and many others. He went abroad on Hockey tours, chilled out at Glastonbury several times, and reportedly still managed to attend all his classes.

He also worked 2 jobs throughout his studies to pay his bills, and admits it wasn't always easy - "Heck, I nearly screwed my 2nd year exams up because the work and DJing were taking up every evening 7 days a week. Yes, I was living it large, but I still needed to get it together for exams - it was a difficult balance! I was lucky in my 2nd year that I was able to sit some of the exams in the summer, when neither my gigs nor my term-time work were getting in the way of studying."

Voted the 'Head of the Management Society' by his peers at the end of his second year, Rob was elated - but didn't undertake the role - which would have made life impossible on top of existing commitments, which included the 3 jobs he worked throughout his final year - Pizza Delivery Boy, DJ, and Barman.

It was at the Management Centre where Rob discovered a love of Marketing, taking every available course in the subject, and sitting the exam for the CIM postgraduate diploma, where many of his classmates were MBA students. He is still the youngest person ever to be awarded the designation 'Chartered Marketer' by the Chartered Institute of Marketing.

He graduated from the University of Bradford School of Management in 1994 with a BSc(Hons) in Business and Management Studies, and the Chartered Institute of Marketing Postgraduate Diploma in Marketing.

In a 15 year career in Marketing, Rob has worked for several market-leading multinational companies, including Total Oil (Total Gas Marketing), Sun Microsystems, Integrated Technologies Europe and Digital Microcomputers. Products he represented include Data Storage, Java, Digital Video, IP CCTV, Mobile Tracking, Natural Gas and Electronic Security.

However, while working in corporations he found it hard to settle into working solely with 1 type of product - "It's tough for someone like me who likes to constantly have different challenges and plans on the go to settle in an environment where it was the same things over and over, and I soon found myself feeling terrible on the way to work - in several of my roles. I wanted to work for myself, but didn't have the confidence to give up what were really good salaries in return for the risk of starting up on my own. I also didn't have the confidence in myself and my own abilities."

Life has a funny way of making things happen - and in 2001 Rob had the month that got him voted "Unluckiest Man in Great Britain" on Radio 1's Colin Murray Show, 3 years later in 2004.

Okay, hold your breath and try to read it all at once...

In a space of 4 weeks, Rob separated from his wife, was made redundant in the first Dot Com Crash, evicted from his rented cottage, had to give his beloved Old English Sheepdog away, relinquished his company Freelander 4x4, he broke his back, destroying 78% of his T-8 vertebra in a sports accident (GoPed Jumping!), was diagnosed with Osteoporosis, and had to move from London (not unhappily) into the spare room at his parents' apartment back up north in Wakefield, not having lived with them since he was 17!

"Never mind 2001 a Space Odyssey, it was 2001 a bloody nightmare!" he jokes, making light of the first injury and subsequent difficult period that helped shape the man he is today. It took a while to recover from the injury, and Rob took some time out to recuperate, take stock of things, and start to build his life again after the 'month from Hell'.

"It's about this time I lost my 'Marketing Mojo'" he laments.

"I found myself unable to get myself into my marketing mindset because I was having moral and ethical struggles with the validity of the marketing profession, in part due to being overloaded with spam and awful adverts".

"I believe very strongly in marketing ethically, permission based marketing and two-way communication with customers and prospects, and the daily influx of badly thought out adverts, unscrupulous techniques, and spam was just too much on top of everything else - I completely lost my faith in marketing. I couldn't market so I tried some different types of roles - but none of them suited me, and I soon left a few companies where I didn't consider myself a great fit, and it wasn't always my decision to leave!" he laughs. "I started a sales job, then lost my voice within my first 2 weeks there - for 3 months my vocal chords were paralysed which, as you might imagine, isn't something that helps a salesman in his job. The company thought this too, and I think that position ranks as the shortest job I've ever had! It also taught me that I love marketing, and sales isn't the same thing - reinforcing my belief that marketing is the right industry for me, and the best way to change something is from within it."

"Marketing is something I now completely believe in again, when it's done right - it's my calling, my vocation, my interest and a part of my past and future. The link between the online world and marketing is evolving, and it's still a frontier for innovation - but the rules are still being worked out. We have to show people the right way to market online, and how not to spam just because it appears the easy way, yet it causes long term damage in perception of your business. We have to make a stand for ethical marketing methods in an increasingly automated world".

In 2004, Rob did serious damage to himself for the second time, falling out of the sky awkwardly whilst out kiteboarding on a local heath. A spectacular take-off was followed some 15 seconds later by an equally spectacularly bad landing, damaging Rob's lower vertebrae and discs, his hip, and his sacroiliac joint on his left side. This resulted in Rob's hasty retirement from Extreme Sports while he was still alive, albeit somewhat beaten up and aching, and no longer able to walk very well very far...

Alanis Likes Producer Role

Morissette still digging deep on new album

Two years ago, in the movie Dogma, Alanis Morissette played God. On her forthcoming album -- delayed for months due to tense contract negotiations with her label, Maverick -- she takes on a bigger role: producer.

"Playing God didn't require much," Morissette says while taking a break from recording at Doghouse Studios, a West Los Angeles facility owned by the Eagles' Glenn Frey. "There's a lot more to producing a record, but I was up for the experience."

It's a big step for Morissette, whose last two albums, Jagged Little Pill and Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, were handled by Glen Ballard, the songwriter and producer for hit records by Dave Matthews, Aerosmith and others. "I listen to my gut about what the next chapter in my life is going to be," she says. "Ever since I was nine, I knew at some point I would produce my own records -- it's a natural step."

Morissette composed most of her best-known material with Ballard, but for this album she wrote on her own. "My purpose was to get back to my truths again, and there's no better way for me to do it than writing songs," she says. "My songs always change my life -- if I'm at all off my proverbial path, as soon as I start to write songs, it gently pushes me back on. I'm afraid of it sometimes."

The lyrics move away from the intimate revelations of earlier work toward more universal topics. "I always thought there were my issues, and there were global issues," she says. "Now I realize they're the same."

Not that Morissette has abandoned the edgy confessionals that charged Jagged Little Pill. The song tentatively titled "Narcissus" opens with the line, "Dear mama's boy, I know you've had your butt licked by your mother." And the standout track, "21 Things I Want in a Lover," is a want ad detailing what a potential paramour should be.

For the record, Morissette is looking for someone who's masculine and feminine, is politically aware and uninhibited in bed. "I exactly mean it," she says. "If somebody said, 'Hey, I'm twenty-one of these things, let's go to lunch,' I'd be excited. I get very specific about what I choose."

Asked whether she's prepared for an onslaught of applications from wannabe lovers, she laughs. "Sure," she says. "Just get on my Web page. But people have to be really honest." And is she the grand prize in this contest? "Yeah, for dinner," she adds, "but we'll stop at dinner, OK?"

In the studio -- which she has personalized with Indian statues, scarves and The Big Book of Filth: 6,500 Sex Slang Words and Phrases ("Required reading," she says) -- Morissette is easygoing with the musicians. "I'm a nurturing person," she says. "I know how it feels to be on the other side of the glass."

Though she remains a major international artist, Morissette saw a big decline in sales from Jagged Little Pill, which sold a staggering 16 million copies, to her most recent album, which sold 3 million. But she says that she values personal satisfaction over commercial success. "Finishing the record, that's my goal," she says. "Once I finish it and hold it in my hand, I consider it a success."

Morissette admits to being out of touch with current pop tastes. When she's asked how many members of Backstreet Boys or 'N Sync she can name, she draws a blank. "You got me there," she says. She may be older than some folks on the radio, but she doesn't feel ready to be put out to pasture. "I'm an elder on some levels," she says, smiling, "but I still feel like a little bit of the junior."
