A new project named FortFC (Fort Financial Crypto) is being developed by the experienced team of the international broker FortFS: a multi-functional liquidity provider for cryptocurrency market.
This is how it works: Buy and Sell orders from a number of the world's most widely used exchanges are submitted into FortFC aggregation engine, which offers the clients a unique opportunity to receive the most favorable rates from the accumulated liquidity volume at any time. FortFC allows its customers to deposit/withdraw cryptocurrencies online and exchange them for both fiat and other cryptocurrencies, while getting the best prices on the market.
The project is already presented with a functional demo version. Potential clients can try it for themselves using the following link.
Poloniex and Bitstamp exchanges are already connected to FortFC, while the relationships of the platform to other popular crypto-exchanges are continuously being established. The quotes provided by these large exchanges are accumulated in the available aggregated pool of liquidity for the company's customers.
FortFC is conducting an ICO with the goal of using the raised funds for depositing into the connected exchanges to maintain aggregated liquidity, covering licensing expenses (the company plans to obtain the FCA (UK), JFSA (Japan), FINMA (Switzerland), and ASIC (Australia) licenses), financing the project development and its promotion and marketing.
Token holders will be able to use them as the internal currency of the project to cover a part of commissions for provision of FortFC services while getting a discount for using these services at the same time. All customers who buy the tokens during the ICO receive an opportunity to use the services completely free of charge for the first 6 months as well as enjoy a life-long increased discount of 35% afterwards.
FortFC belongs to FFS, an international holding with a solid history. After its foundation in 2010, FFS never stopped growing and various companies were established under its brand: a licensed award-winning broker FortFS (Fort Financial Services), which has been successful on the market for more than 8 years and is now serving more than 150 thousand customers worldwide, as well as several IT companies specializing in software development for the financial sector.
Currently, the project is in a private sale stage with pre-ICO starting on 12 November 2018. It is now possible to take part in fund-raising by registering on the project's official site.
Clients who complete verification before 25 October 2018 get an additional bonus of 20% for purchasing of tokens during pre-ICO and ICO.

Everyone is constantly glued to their smartphones these days, checking their social media and constantly being kept up to date with everyone's every movement. So, it stands to reason that sooner or later we would start seeing horror films exploring this realm in earnest. Friend Request is not the first of such films, but it is the latest, and today we are taking a look at the Blu-ray release from Lionsgate.
Friend Request is a 2016 horror film that follows Laura, a popular college student who becomes the obsession of a friendless goth girl named Marina. Like, completely friendless, she has 0 friends on Facebook (like OMG you guys). So, when Laura accepts Marina's friend request out of the goodness of her heart, Marina gets creepy with it, obsessing over every online interaction and quickly becoming too much for Laura.
So Laura does what anyone would do in this situation, she unfriends Marina. Unfortunately for Laura, this sets Marina in a depressed rage and causes her to kill herself and broadcast her death all over social media.
However, it doesn't stop there. Laura's Facebook feed inexplicably begins posting the suicide video, along with several other cryptic messages, which cannot be deleted. It seems that Marina is not going to let a silly thing like death prevent her from causing Laura pain over her heartless act of not being her best friend.
While this may all sound super juvenile and thin for a plot, it actually kind of works – kind of. The whole film played like an urban legend B-movie, which I am ok with that. The acting was nothing special but was suitable enough to not draw me out of the experience. There was a good deal of disturbing video snippets that were a fun mix of gothic and something you'd expect to find in a dark web art project. There is an obvious appreciation for The Ring here.
The film deploys jump scares at pretty much every opportunity, which will likely get some viewers. However, if you are at all familiar with current horror than you will see them all coming. Still, there was some satisfaction to be had, even if the overall product was nothing to write home about.
Also, the ending nearly caused my eyes to roll back completely, so be prepared for that.
This Blu-ray is visually acceptable, but not particularly exciting. There are a lot of very dark scenes that look slightly muddled at times, but for the most part, both darks and lights are looking good enough. I will say this for Friend Request, there are some interesting CG scenes with nice gothic artwork, and a good many interesting little creepy video snippets that are quite stylish, even if they don't really seem plausible.
The Master Audio 5.1 track is perfectly serviceable here. There is not a ton of surround usage, but what is there is satisfactory and clean sounding. The sound effects are usually believable enough, but at times it felt like the audio was really playing into the scene, which is something you'll notice but probably won't care about.
Special Features:
Unfortunately, there is only one special feature in this release, which is a mini-featurette of a little over 10 minutes of cast and crew discussion about making the film. Very standard and not particularly exciting, but to be honest, I wasn't really feeling the need to find out more about this film. A UV code is included in this release.
- Friend Request: The Social Nightmare
Friend Request Final Thoughts:
I think Friend Request is a middling horror story for sure, but it will likely appeal to a younger generation who really value their social media. Bigger fans of the genre will probably be dissatisfied here, and the lack of meaningful supplements makes this hard to recommend as a blind buy. However if you are so inclined, it is out now and can be had from Amazon or wherever you get your Blu-rays.
Note: This Blu-ray was sent to us for review. This has not affected our judgement or editorial process in any way. Please contact us if you have any questions regarding this process.

I love the running community.
And after a long weekend in Bethlehem, PA, I'm feeling more connected than ever.
A few months ago I received an invitation from Runner's World to take part in a special weekend at the Runner's World Half and Festival with several other bloggers. We would get a sneak peak in Runner's World HQ, hear directly from brand sponsors of the event, hang out with each other, and participate in as many of the three races as we wanted.
I, along with most of the other bloggers, signed up for the "hat trick," which consisted of back-to-back 5 and 10ks on Saturday, and a half marathon on Sunday.
After last weekend's draining 50k, I wasn't feeling as jazzed on the running part as I would have liked. It's been nearly two years since I ran a road half marathon, and I knew I wasn't recovered enough mentally or physically to really push for a new PR. Even on Friday, I wasn't sure if I'd run all the races.
But after the days leading up to Sunday's main event, everything began to shift.
A Tour of Runner's World HQ
We kicked off the weekend with one of my favorite events: Dinner with many of the Runner's World editors at their headquarters.
The food was good, but the tour and chatting that followed was even better.
Even if you aren't a Runner's World reader, you have to admit that they've played a major role in the growth of running's popularity over the past few decades. From Dr. George Sheehan to the hilarious Mark Remy, over the years, an incredible line-up of running influencers have covered the magazine's pages.
The one and only Mayor of Running himself, Bart Yasso, along with David Willy, RW's Editor-in-Chief, showed us around the offices just outside Bethlehem. We heard stories from Yasso and saw the passion from Willy. We also got a behind-the-scenes look at how an issue of Runner's World comes together each month.
For a running dork like myself, it was like hitting the jackpot, and their down-to-Earth welcome reminded me just how open this community is.
A Closer Look at Altra, Time with Budd Coates, and Lots of Fun (and Karaoke)
Friday was the special "blogger" day, as I liked to call it.
We kicked it off with a town-wide scavenger hunt (yes that's me in a skirt at 0:24), before spending the day at the expo center speaking with some of the event's sponsors.
One of the more interesting parts for me was hearing from Budd Coates about his book Running on Air. His breathing technique and philosophy makes a lot of sense, and I look forward to diving into the book more over the next few days. A full review will be coming soon.
I also loved hearing from the founders of Altra running shoes. I've been running off and on in Altras over the past few months, even using them during last weekend's 50k. They impressed me right away, and the foot shaped toe box has done wonders for my blister prone toes.
Altra's philosophy and story is unique and powerful enough that I want to save it for a full post and review of the two shoes I've been wearing, but if you're interested in learning more now, check out their videos here.
The rest of the afternoon was filled with yoga, a talk from Team RWB, and more time with Bart and other Runner's World staff.
After the official biz was over, Matt of No Meat Athlete, Dani of Weight Off My Shoulders, and Presley of Run Pretty decided we'd prep for the weekend of racing with a little fun.
I'll spare you of the details, but it might have involved a few hours of Black Jack at the Sands Casino and duets with Matt at our hotel's karaoke night. Yes, our Comfort Suites had a karaoke night. And yes, the running bloggers might have closed it down.
It was a blast drinking beers and getting to know so many of the bloggers in person. As my wife put it as we chatted on the phone, "It's like summer camp for running bloggers. Where you can all geek out and tweet about it."
Having Fun During A Race (x3)
Like I mentioned before, leading up to the weekend, the racing part had me least excited. Getting lost made me mentally drained, and the thought of running three road races in a row just wasn't making my shoes dance.
So on Friday night, when some of the bloggers I was hanging with decided we'd all run the 5k together, I was relieved. No pressure to push hard, and no solo suffering.
The 8 am start came early, but jokes were flowing from the very beginning. It was the most casual I had ever run a race, and it was a lot of fun.
That first race set the tone for the next two.
An hour after finishing the 5k, we were back in the starting corral ready to do it again.
Someone in the group need to stop for a potty break? No problem, we'll all wait.
Opportunity to run with David Willy? Sounds great, let's all slow down and soak in the moment (he was running slow in order to chat with other runners, not because we were faster).
Spot "funny lady" Liz Miele (who performed a hilarious routine for the entire expo Saturday evening) a mile from the 10k finish? She'll keep us laughing down the chute.
Sunday's half marathon was no different. I may have finished over 30 minutes slower than a PR, but I had a blast. And that was the best case scenario.
Multiple stops and handfuls of candy from strangers later, the races were over. And my times didn't mater.
These races were about fun.
I'm thankful to Matt, Dani, Presley, and the entire community we were running with that reminded me running isn't just about pushing hard and testing your limits, it's also about laughing, having fun, and sharing support.
I hope to keep that spirit alive through every race I participate in moving forward. Does that mean I'm not going to push or go after a PR? Of course not.
But at the core, running should come down to having fun. Because in the end, when our legs can't handle new PRs or distances, that's all we'll have left.
Big thanks to Runner's World, you put on a great event in Bethlehem. And major congrats to all of the runners that I met and didn't meet (especially Arun and his GF. Sorry we missed each other!).
P.S. If you're curious, here's the full list of bloggers that were a part of the event:
- Matt from No Meat Athlete
- Katie from Ms Fit Runner
- Kristen from Fit Bottomed Girls
- Sarah from Picky Runner
- Dani from Weight Off My Shoulders

But, from the beginning, he knew that losing one battle did not mean losing the war.
That war is to ensure that the Lithuanian government recognises that many of its political and military leaders played an active role in the extermination of the country's Jews during the Nazi era.
Furthermore, it is to reverse the dangerous trend of Lithuania calling these people heroes, and whitewashing this history.
Gochin focused on the actions of Jonas Noreika, who is hailed as a hero and martyr in Lithuania. In reality, Noreika played a key role in facilitating the massacre of thousands of Jews in the shtetls of Lithuania, where many South African Jews' relatives were killed.
Although he was expecting the Lithuanian government to win this case, it was still a blow to the passionate activist. Yet, he remains resolute. "I'm not surprised by this verdict. Lithuania is a Holocaust-distorting state... the government's legal position was that we Jews have 'no material interest', in what was done to our families," he told the SA Jewish Report.
"That shows the dishonesty and insincerity of the diplomatic and financial outreach to Jews. [The government's] real feelings about Jews and what Lithuanians did to Jews during the war have been exposed by this case. They have made their real attitudes clear. Jews should no longer have any illusions about a changed Lithuanian state."
Gochin says that dismissing a case because it is "ill-based" does not bode well for future foreign investment and tourism in Lithuania. "Seeking truth is 'ill-based'. Evidence is 'ill-based'. If a business case comes before the court of a foreigner against a Lithuanian, this standard of law says that such a case is 'ill-based' and may be dismissed. This is a catastrophe for Lithuania. It is the end of foreign investment in that country. The courts are an arm of government, they rule as instructed. At least now decent people know what Lithuania is and has always been. It is consistent. Jews should never mistake what we face," he said.
The Simon Wiesenthal Center's chief Nazi-hunter, Dr Ephraim Zuroff, termed the decision of the court "absolutely ludicrous, and an insult to victims of the Nazis [and] survivors the world over... In Lithuania, Nazi killers are glorified and their bloody past ignored, as if the Jewish citizens murdered there are of no concern to the country."
The Lithuanian Jewish Community (LJC) also expressed deep disappointment and demanded that "representatives of the Lithuanian executive and legislative branches respond appropriately and in a timely manner by condemning this incident of institutional anti-Semitism, and that the centre take responsibility and publicly retract the text, apologise to the LJC for the gross belittlement of the scope of the Holocaust, and apologise to the Lithuanian public for misinforming [it]".
If neither of these actions are taken, "the LJC, in defence of its interests protected by law but now violated, reserves the right to make sue [sic] of the defensive measures and remedies provided in Lithuanian law", according to the organisation's chairperson, Faina Kukliansky.
Indeed, Gochin is not alone. Silvia Foti, the granddaughter of the late Noreika, has bravely fought to ensure that his role in the extermination of Lithuanian Jews is recognised and condemned.
Gochin, meanwhile, said he would appeal the case all the way to the European Court of Justice.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 1 – Beginner)
Topic: Illustrate the meaning of "Every Dark Cloud has a Silver Lining" (without using the actual phrase or literal example). (02/28/08)
- TITLE: Washed Out but not Washed Up | Previous Challenge Entry
By Lyn Churchyard
You see, I am a writer, and writers need to do research – sometimes very in-depth research – in the process of writing a book.
As I handed my ticket to the uniformed crewmember checking names on his list, I grinned at him like an idiot. He just looked at me and smiled knowingly. Apparently, he was quite used to idiots making their first trip on the Indian Pacific. Finances didn't stretch as far as a first-class sleeper, so I opted for a Red Kangaroo Classs day/night seat that reclined – in a manner of speaking.
I was on my way to Kalgoorlie in Western Australia, a three-day journey across the country from East to West, travelling on the longest, straightest patch of train track in the world. From Cook to Kalgoorlie – four hundred and seventy-eight miles.
I stowed my backpack in the overhead luggage rack and took my window seat. Butterflies were doing a demented quick step in my stomach as I drummed my fingers on the windowsill.
The train's exit from the station was so slow and smooth that it was several minutes before I realised we had started moving. A blast of the train's horn made me jump and I became aware that the platform had disappeared.
I looked at the clock on the wall at the end of the carriage – it was 3:30 and my stomach growled as it let me know it was time for afternoon tea.
The buffet was quiet, only two couples chatting in a four-seat booth. I took my coffee and slice of chocolate cake, and sat at the opposite end of the buffet. I wasn't trying to appear unfriendly, but I needed peace and quiet to put the beginning of my adventure into words. I needed to feel what my MC felt. I needed to get inside her head and share her journey.
Twenty pages of feverish writing later, I became aware someone was standing beside me. I looked up; it was Sandra, one of the passenger attendants.
"Homework?" she asked.
I grinned. "Well sort of. I'm writing a book, this part that takes place on the IP."
I had a sudden thought. "Sandra, can I pick your brains for a minute or two?"
She slid into the seat opposite me. "Fire away."
I spent the next fifteen minutes asking and getting answers to some "what if" scenarios, which made my first real attempt at on-the-spot research a delight.
The rest of the day passed in a blur and it was nine o'clock before I realised I hadn't even thought about dinner.
"I wondered when you were going to surface." Sandra laughed, as I ordered and paid for my meal.
"One of the perils of writing." I replied rolling my eyes.
I slept fairly well that night despite my less-than-comfortable bed, and woke the next morning as we were pulling in to Broken Hill. I opted to forego the tour of the town, and had breakfast instead. Nothing compares to having a traditional Aussie breakfast on Sunday morning, and the bacon, grilled tomato, mushrooms, and scrambled eggs were the best I had ever tasted.
We'd only been gone from Broken Hill an hour when I began to suspect something was wrong. The crew stood in small groups talking in hushed tones and then we were asked to assemble in the dining car where someone announcement that the train tracks had been washed away on the Nullarbor. This was the first time it had ever happened. Oh, the tracks had been flooded previously, but never washed away. Our journey ended in Adelaide, while Great Southern Railways organized free flights back to Sydney and a complimentary motel stay.
I arrived home bitterly disappointed, knowing I would probably never be able to afford another trip. Yet the train crew had been marvelous in the face of complaints and in some cases, abuse from some of the passengers. I wrote to Great Southern Railway and told them how much I appreciated all the crew had done to ease the disappointment of the aborted trip.
Two weeks later, a voucher arrived in the mail for a fifty percent discount on a first-class trip on the Indian Pacific. Next time, I would be traveling Gold Kangaroo Class.

So I know some of you readers were following me or have come across me because I am a pregnant bowhunter. 😀 So, assuming that I have something of an audience there, I'll tell you about my season this year.
Mostly it was great! I loved it. After my first disasterous experience with my guide, he took me and my husband to a much easier to get to spot with lots of elk. We would go up on Friday nights (because it's hard to do it on weeknights when you've got work in the morning… and if you get something, you have to haul it out in the morning.) and sit at a quiet watering hole, up on a hill, behind some bushes and wait for the wildlife to come in.
The first time we went, nothing came through. But the second night, we had a herd of elk with a big six point bull come through. Since this is spike/cow only territory though, I had to leave him alone. He sure was pretty though, and having a great time splashing around in the mud. Anyway, so when they first came into the hole, I got excited and drew back… just waiting for a cow to go broadside so I could shoot (they were about 20 yards off, so easy). Buuut they were too busy bouncing in the mud, so I had to kind of let off… and let off a little quick and they heard. So the bull took off. Some of the cows stuck around though… and one came down to drink, so I took a shot.
I hit her high, but at a downward angle… and let her bound off. We waited for half an hour, then it started to get really dark, so we went to see if we could at least find the start of the blood trail… but there was nothing. We searched for an hour or two. And no blood, no arrow, nothing. We came back in the morning and searched for three or four more hours… scouring the hillside to see if we could find blood or the cow or anything… but there was not one drop of blood anywhere nearby. No arrow either. I was so sad.
So we went up a few more nights… usually seeing some deer (I was too late to get a deer tag this year, sadly). And one night the same elk herd (with the six point) came back down, but there was something crunching on the hill behind where I was sitting, so that freaked them out and they took off without me getting a chance to take a shot. It was sad. No other sightings beyond that.
So it was a fun, but sadly elk-less year for me. Oh well, there's always next year I guess! 🙂

If you're struggling to qualify for a personal loan, your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio could be to blame.
Your DTI, often expressed as a percentage, compares your debt payments with your gross income each month. Loan companies look closely at your DTI before approving your application.
If the ratio is high, lenders take it as a warning sign that you might not be able to repay what you owe. Plus, a high DTI could make it difficult for you to cover living costs or save for the future.
Find out how your DTI can impact not just your loan applications, but also your daily life. Then, consider the six creative strategies for lowering your debt-to-income ratio.
Why does DTI matter?
Let's say your monthly gross (or pretax) income is $2,000 and you pay $1,000 each month toward your student loans, credit cards, and car payment.
In this example, your DTI comes out to 50%. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau says borrowers should have a DTI of43% or less to take out a mortgage. A DTI of 50% is considered to be on the high side, so it could prevent you from being able to borrow more money.
Plus, lenders often look for a DTI of 36% or lower for any type of loan. So if your ratio is higher than that, what can you do to bring it down into a more acceptable range?
6 ways you can lower your DTI
Since your DTI compares your monthly debt payments with your income, you need to focus on reducing your debt or increasing your income. Here are six ways to achieve both goals.
- Pay off your loans ahead of schedule
Installment loans typically have a multiyear repayment plan, often with fixed bills from month to month.
But you don't have to stay on that payment plan. If you can find room in your budget, you could make extra payments to pay off your debt ahead of schedule.
There are a couple of tried-and-true methods to speed up your debt payoff. One is the debt avalanche strategy, under which you first target paying off your high-interest debt while continuing to make minimum payments on other loans.
Another one is the debt snowball method, which involves paying off your smallest debt first and working your way up to your biggest.
Of course, by increasing the monthly amount you pay under either strategy, your DTI could increase temporarily.
But once you get rid of a debt, your DTI should fall to below what it was before you adopted one of the methods — and stay there (unless you take out another loan).
- Target debt with the highest 'bill-to-balance' ratio
Besides the debt avalanche and snowball methods, there's another approach that might be more effective in lowering your DTI. It's based on the "bill-to-balance" ratio.
"The best strategy is to target the debts which reduce your DTI the most for the least amount of cash paid," said Eric Bowlin, real estate investor and founder of Ideal REI.
Let's say you owe $100 on Credit Card A and $50 on Credit Card B. Card A's monthly payment is $20 and Card B's is $25.
You would want to target Card B first, since your monthly payment represents 50% of its balance, whereas Card A's monthly payment only makes up 20%.
As a result, paying off the $50 you owe on Card B would have a larger impact on your DTI than paying off the $100 you owe on Card A.
J.R. Duren, a personal finance writer at consumer review site HighYa, took this approach to qualify for a mortgage. His DTI was a bit too high, so his loan officer suggested he pay off a credit card with a $125 balance.
"While that balance seems really small, the monthly payment was $25, which is significant because it represents 20% of the balance," said Duren. "Paying off that card freed up enough monthly debt obligations to lower our DTI and make our mortgage possible."
- Negotiate a higher salary
In addition to lowering your debt, you can change your DTI by increasing your income.
As described in the example above, someone who makes $2,000 each month and pays $1,000 toward loans has a 50% DTI. But if that monthly income increased to $3,000, then the DTI would go down to 33%.
One way of trying to boost your salary (besides changing jobs) is asking your employer for a raise.
"Lay the groundwork for this by taking on extra responsibilities and doing an outstanding job at work," advised Mark Kantrowitz, the publisher and vice president of research at Savingforcollege.com. "If your employer doesn't reward your hard work with more money, then start looking for another job."
When the time is right, rehearse what you'll say to your boss so that your salary negotiation can be a success.
- Earn extra money with a side hustle
More than 44 million Americans are making extra money with a side hustle, according to Bankrate.
There are endless options for side hustles today, from renting out a room on Airbnb to driving for Uber to starting a consulting business online.
That lets you boost your income each month, thereby reducing your DTI. You also could use the earnings to pay off your credit card balances and loans ahead of schedule.
Although your side hustle will require time and energy, it could bring you closer to a debt-free life.
- Use a balance transfer to lower interest rates
Another strategy for lowering your debt payments is doing a balance transfer.
You could transfer your debt onto a zero-interest credit card using offers with a 0% APR period for a promotional period. Because you don't have to keep up with interest for a limited time, you could pay off the balance faster.
Watch out for balance transfer fees, though. Also, make sure you can pay off the debt before the promotional period ends and the regular interest rate kicks in. Otherwise, you could end up with higher monthly bills than you started, thereby dragging your DTI down further.
- Refinance your debt with a new lender
If you're not able to pay off your student loans and other debt ahead of schedule, you could restructure them by refinancing your student loans.
Refinancing can be a great option if you can qualify for a lower interest rate and change your repayment terms. Online lenders such as SoFi and Earnest offer competitive rates to creditworthy borrowers.
You also might be able to lower your monthly payments if you decide to pursue refinancing, which would have a positive effect on your DTI.
Find ways to decrease your debt and increase your income
Your debt-to-income ratio can make or break your application for a loan. Plus, it's closely connected to your credit utilization, which makes up 30% of your FICO credit score.
A high DTI also is burdensome from month to month, because it means your loan payments are eating up a large portion of your income.
If you see your paycheck disappear toward loans and credit card payments, take steps to reduce your debt and increase your income.
By getting your DTI closer to zero, you can shift your focus to saving money and building wealth for the future.

T'is the season for glitz, glamour, and gold (and chilly weather of course). This time of year, I (like many others) find myself with some sort of holiday party every other weekend. No complaints though, I'm all for some wine and a good time! This year, I have fallen in love with the way gold and red go together so beautifully and incorporated this into my makeup routine.
I created this warm, holiday glow with a few necessity products. My eyes are done entirely using Too Faced's Chocolate Bar Palette. I am SoOoO obsessed with this palette. Not only are the colors completely gorge, but they smell like CHOCOLATE (Yum)!
My red lips are created using NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in "Dragon Girl". This is my absolute favorite red lips. It stays for ages and isn't too drying. Trust me when I say it sticks. If I don't wait for it to fully dry before smooching little Mila, she is left with indelible red kiss marks on her cheeks! Before applying any matte lip colour, I first coat my lips with Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment in Clear. This lip treatment is so moisturizing and does a great job at prepping my lips for matte colors.
My contour was created using just two simple products: Bronzer and Highlighter
On my lid, I first applied a coat of Too Faced's "Shadow Insurance" to keep my shadow lasting all day. Next I swept a light coat of "Salted Caramel" on my lid (following upwards about halfway between my crease and brow). I swept this shade along my lower lash line too (lash line, not my water line). Next, I swept "Crème Brûlée" across my lids. I dusted my crease and outer corner with "Semi Sweet". To finish this look, I used "Champagne Truffle" in my inner corners and for my brow highlight. I drew a quick cat eye using my Balm Cosmetics' Schwing Liner, and two coats of NARS Audacious Mascara.

Has the power-point presentation in the White House situation room concluded, or is it still in progress as you read? Will you picture which two dozen representatives of the military, CIA, NSA, or FU-A are present as the mug shot slides hit the big screen?
Are they drinking coffee, smoking cigars as they read aloud the damning information against each 'terrorist' on the President's Kill List? Or do they engage in some pantomime of civility, sitting at attention, with expressions of concern and gravitas on their lying sociopathic faces? Donilon, Brennan…oh, never mind. You may not want to have them in your heads; I can't blame you a bit.
Has the list grown by now, so that the meetings take longer? Of course it has. Are the two teenagers still on it, especially the seventeen-year-old girl who's said to look even younger? Do OBomba's advisors individually make pitches for their Targets of Choice?
The May puff piece the Times did on the Terror Tuesday program said it really tested the President's principles. Oh: and the writers did mention it tested his will, too, in that he was resolved to kill anyone who might execute a terrorist plot that would delay his Presidency…
So, damn; Our President has manned up, and chosen the tough role of choosing whether or not to put the drone-finger on some person deemed to be dangerous, but especially the ones who are not alone, and might be attending funerals, rescuing other dead killed by his drones. That must mean they are sometimes also watching real-time satellite images of their potential targets.
Apparently the President chooses about a third of the targets, the CIA the rest, including the suspected 'terrorists', 'militants' engaged in activities covered by 'signature strike' protocols, in which some group of people in Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, etc. just look like they're up to no good., whether walking in a suspicious fashion, doing jumping jacks in a line, carrying rifles, things like that. Brennan defends the accidental deaths in 'signature strikes' by saying that it discourages people from assembling in groups, thereby limiting their potential to do harm. Sounds like DHS's rationalization for shutting down Occupys all over the nation, doesn't it? 'Preventive Assembling'.
The writers at the Times actually call it 'a moral calculation' Obama chooses for himself; oh, the poor man. Just think: on Tuesday nights he has to go into his daughters' rooms to read them bedtime stories, say goodnight, or share their day's happenings at dinner with all that blood on his hands. Personally. Say a prayer for him and his immortal soul, if you will, the authors might have written: his burdens are great, and they are difficult.
Remember, too; Our President has told us that any male of military age in those nations are terrorists…unless they can prove once they're dead…that they were…innocent before killed. Whoosh.
Women, children, innocents; so many…so many… Maybe even some folks who harbor dark designs on us; God knows I would, were I they. And they even know it's the greatest militant recruiting tool in their arsenals. It makes you wonder what it's all about.
So goodbye, next victims, and Godspeed. We are so sorry we haven't stopped these incalculably twisted murders, nor the torture renditions that haven't really stopped, but have just been re-defined by Our Beleaguered and Brave President. Even the New York Times tells us so. 'All the news that's fit to print'…if you can stomach reading it.
To your families, friends, playmates…there simply are no words that might bring you comfort, so for now, we'll hold you in our hearts, and speed you on your way to the Light and Love. Allah be with you. ???? ???
* Prayer does not, imo, require belief in a deity.

Planning & Research
Managing riparian vegetation is only one component of effective riparian restoration. Thus, we strive to look at restoration practices as a whole and encourage our partners to do the same. To do this, we participate in large-scale efforts that aim to increase capacity for planning and availability of research that will help to advance riparian restoration. The following are some examples of activities we are currently involved in:
Tamarisk and Russian Olive Assessments:
Tamarisk and Russian olive removal is one component of the complex issues surrounding riparian restoration and watershed health. Through our own work and that of our partners, we strive to connect to the latest research and information that will support successful riparian restoration. Some of the key documents that support this work include:
2009 Tamarisk and Russian Olive Assessment of the Colorado River Basin, published by RiversEdge West, which provides an overview of the impacts of these species to riparian areas in the Colorado River Basin.
2010 U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report which came as a result of the Salt Cedar and Russian Olive Control Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-320). The report was completed in partnership with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and synthesizes the science and key research needs related to the management of tamarisk and Russian olive nationally.
RiversEdge West leads research to inform riparian restoration efforts in a variety of ways, including:
Coordinating watershed-wide and small-scale pilot project studies within multiple watersheds. Sample projects/reports include:
Riparian Restoration Partnership Successes, Lessons Learned, and Models for Other Initiatives: This report synthesizes key programmatic successes and lessons learned from collaborative watershed restoration partnerships in the Colorado River Basin.
Watershed-wide research within the Dolores River drainage assessing best restoration methods
State Funding Program Assessment: RiversEdge West conducted a review of "new" and/or "successful" funding programs employed by a selection of states throughout the United States that fund restoration and other environmental work.
Working with a host of academic researchers throughout the West individually and through riparian restoration partnerships. A recent example includes the:
Tamarisk beetle (Diorhabda spp.) in the Colorado River basin: synthesis of an expert panel forum. This report was released by RiversEdge West and the Ruth Powell Hutchins Water Center at Colorado Mesa University. The report presents information on the probable ecological impact of the tamarisk beetle's spread and identifies key factors to consider when selecting riparian restoration actions where the beetle is likely to become established.
Dolores River Cottonwood Suitability Assessment (2014). This report provides recommendations on how to increase the survival/success rate of cottonwood and willow plantings based on a study conducted along the Dolores River. The study also provides guidelines to help develop a streamlined protocol that others can use to enhance the success of cottonwood plantings on other rivers across the West.
Working with Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCC's) who work to bridge the gap between the needs of land managers and academic research by providing funding for conducting applied research with direct benefits to on-the-ground restoration efforts
RiversEdge West's
mission is to advance the restoration of riparian lands through collaboration, education, and technical assistance.

History of Silicon Valley in less than 4 Mins
Animated timeline shows how Silicon Valley became a $2.8 trillion neighborhood.
Silicon Valley is a name that is synonymous with the technology industry, but when and how did this small area of California become the center of the tech world? The area's transformation happened gradually, over a period of more than 100 years. Here's how.
Silicon Valley is an almost $3 trillion neighborhood thanks to companies like Apple, Google, and Tesla. But it wasn't always this way.
In the late 1800s, San Francisco's port helped make it a hub of the early telegraph and radio industries. In 1909, San José became home to one of the US's first radio stations. In 1933, the Navy purchased Moffett Field to dock and maintain the USS Macon. This made Moffett Field a major hub for the early days of the aerospace industry. Many scientists and researchers all found work in the area. In 1939, the Ames Research Center was founded in the area, and it became home to the world's largest wind tunnel in 1949.

If you're considering replacement pressure washer pumps - or repairing the pump you have - this page is for you! My tips will guide you through deciding when it's time to repair or replace - including instructions on how to easily change out a pump.
And you can see my #1 top pump recommendation: the Generac universal replacement pump on Amazon. It's a quality universal pump so it works great with ALL gas pressure washer brands! Simple. And you can check Amazon's price on this Generac universal replacement pump.
Is your pump not working? Now matter how careful you are, a pump will eventually wear out or breakdown. And when it stops working, it's frustrating.
So, to get you up & running again, let's briefly review the three main types of pumps on pressure washers - and I'll tell you which ones can be replaced --- or can't be replaced.
Do you have a small & handy electric pressure washer? Do you have a Karcher or another similar electric pressure washer brand? Yes, they are popular units and they are outfitted with a wobble pump.
Unfortunately, wobble pumps are not made to be replaced and you'll have to replace your entire power washer. I'm sorry but you can't replace any wobble pumps and a completely new pressure washer is your only option if you're having pump failure.
(Of course, if your Karcher unit is still under the manufacturers warranty, you have an option. Karcher gives a one year limited warranty, from the date of purchase. My Karcher Warranty & Repair page tells you EVERYTHING you need to know to get your Karcher unit repaired or replaced while it's under warranty.)
Do you have a gas or electric pressure washer with an axial cam pump? Great. Then repair or replacement is definitely an option for you. At the bottom of this page, I'll review when it's better to repair or replace an axial cam pump.
Do you have a high-end, contractor level pressure washer? Did your unit cost more than $900.00? You most likely have a triplex pump. These are heavy-duty pumps that have the longest life expectancy, with the highest price tag. And yes, triplex pumps can be easily replaced or repaired.
If you have an axial cam pump or a triplex pump then repair or replacement are options you can & should consider.
If you're thinking about getting a repair at a local shop, please keep in mind that most pump repairs involve at least 2 hours of labor, plus parts. Yes, pump repair at a local service shop can get expensive! So, you have the balance the cost of the repair against the cost of a new pump. If the repairs that you are quoted are going to cost you $190.00 and you know you can get a replacement pump for $225.00, I think you should think about just switching out the old pump for a new one. But if a replacement pump on your heavy-duty pressure washer would cost $700.00, and you think the pump still has some life in it, you might want to go for the $225.00 repairs instead.
But, if you're really mechanically inclined and you have a few extra hours, you could do the repair job yourself. Your owners manual is a great source for part numbers. And with the internet, you can find just about any part you need, very quickly.
I'm not a mechanic, but I have found that installing replacement pressure washer pumps is a relatively easy project! And I saved a lot of money by doing it myself. Here's how:
Really, most axial cam and triplex pumps can be easily removed from the pressure washer cart by just unbolting them. I have a Comet pump on my Honda gas washer and I only have to take off four small bolts to pull the entire pump from the frame. Then, it was only a matter matching up the mounting holes, bolting it on & hooking up the new replacement pressure washer pump.
If you want to replace your pump yourself, always check your owners manual first. Find out the exact specs of your pump: PSI, GPM, etc. When you shop around, always match the replacement pressure washer pumps specs with the specs of your existing pump!
I hope my tips helped you decide whether to replace or repair your pump - to save you time & money!

I got to go with Jeanie to Show Low last weekend! It was fun! And cold! She went with me to Safford a couple of times, so I guess it was my turn to go with her. Her parents are so awesome! They are so fun! Thanks for the cinnamon rolls, harmonica lessons, and breakfast in bed!
I think everyone did this in their childhood!
No, I'm not picking my nose....
I told her to climb in between some rocks and make a squished face. I have a fun roommate!
When she says jump, I listen!

Hello my lovelies,
So I am a lover of lipstick, a true die hard fan. I cannot go outside the house with make up on and not apply lipstick. It makes my face and I LOVE wearing bright lips. Nudes are not really for me, I love trying new colours!
My first high end lipstick was MAC and I have never looked back. Of course I have other brands of lipsticks but they never seem to fail me. I remember my first time going into a MAC store and buying 'Girl About Town' and the love story began. I now have 15 of them and I'm always on the hunt to pick up new ones there are just so many colours to choose from!
Russian Red, Matte Finish
Who doesn't love a classic red? Weirdly this is one of my least used lipsticks. I always think it's good to have red lipsticks in your collection but I never am drawn to wearing them..
Girl About Town, Amplified
So I actually have two of these, my lovely friend Charlotte knew how much I loved this lipstick and picked me a second one up when she visited Las Vegas so I didn't run out. This will always be one of my favorites, I think more so because it brings me back to walking into MAC for the first time and realising I was falling in love with make up. At the same time it is a beautiful bright pink shade.
Up the Amp, Amplified
So wow this is a bright purple, I don't know why I picked this one up. I have worn it properly maybe once a few years ago. This summer I will whipping this out with no shame. I love a purple lip dark or light, who cares what other people think right?
Whirl, Matte
So who doesn't love this colour? The craze after Velvet Teddy and I love this so much. This is my favourite lipstick in my MAC collection at the moment. I am loving the dark nude lip and is perfect for day to day wear.
Velvet Teddy, Matte
So yes I own this, of course I do! It took me a long while to get my hands on it and I was happy at the time I got it but it's too dull for me now. It's never something I am drawn to any more. I am determined to get the bottom of this and finish it though. This would be my first ever lipstick I have finished and I personally think this would be an amazing achievement.
Chatterbox, Amplified
A nice pink shade and a shade I don't hear much about. More recently it isn't a shade I am drawn to but it doesn't offend me. When I am not wearing a lot of makeup this is the sort of shade I go towards. Who doesn't love pink?
Speed Dial, Cremesheen
Another pink shade, ok yes I love pink. This has blue undertones which is probably why I am drawn to it more than speed dial. I want to look like I have pearly white teeth and is exactly what this does. If I am undecided on what to wear I normally end up wearing this.
Steam Heat, Satin
So who doesn't love limited edition packaging? I think this is what drew me to this lipstick. Again this isn't a lipstick I wear an awful lot but it is a beautiful red shade. I think it's because it's a satin finish I'm not really drawn to it, not my most favourite finish from MAC I'm afraid..
Morange, Amplified
So this is my summer lipstick of choice. I love wearing orange lipsticks in the summer and MAC have completely nailed it with this one. I have the lip liner to match and when the warmer months come in the UK this is what I'll be wearing!
Antique Velvet, Matte
So I love this colour, in fact I am obsessed. This is the latest addition to my collection and I love it so much. It isn't to everyone's taste but I will rock it and I don't care what anyone else thinks. Who doesn't want a deep dark brown colour with a hint of purple?
Impassioned, Amplified
I like this colour, it's more of a pinky coral colour. I wear this again in the summer but it's a colour I always forget I have. I'm not sure why its a forgettable shade in my collection and I'm hoping I will wear this more..
Lady Danger, Matte
This is another summer colour, a red/orange shade which I love. Another newish lipstick to my collection which I adore. Stupidly I brought this towards the end of summer so I haven't had much wear out of this yet. Roll on the summer months!
Hot Tahiti, Glaze
I really don't like this one much. First off I don't like the glaze formula I'm so much more of a matte girl as you can tell. It's just all a bit pointless. Annoyingly I really like the shade and my sister pulls it off so well but it just isn't for me.
Rebel, Satin
Last but not least it's a purple. In fact one of my most favourite purples that I own. It's everything I want in a colour. As it's a satin I do always wear a lip liner underneath because I like the dark matte lip as apposed to a more sheer finish. Personal preference though of course.
So there is my lovely MAC lipstick collection that I am sure will be growing as time goes by. As you can tell I love the matte and amplified finishes. Let me know what your favourite ones are as I am always on the hunt to try new colours!

After watching a movie, when it was over, it totally took me out of my mind. No thoughts were happening. As I sat there, the room and self lightened, seeming less dense. There was no separation between me, the walls, the furniture, and anything in the room. Nothing seemed solid. Everything was blended together, and moving, but as that was happening, fear set in. The moment fear set in, all was solid again.
All that we consider solid forms are forms of space arising in space.

Audrey Seguy Basket: £5 (1 item) Sign out
The Castle seems to always be building, what's in store this time around?
ML: In May we are building two new areas and refurbishing one! The Tower and The Pump Room are the two new areas to open to Castle's climbers by the end of May and The Mezz bouldering is getting the refurbishment treatment.
Route climbing first - where is the Tower, what challenges were faced in its development and what is the wall going to be like?
ML: Castles tend to be characterised by their towers - our Castle is no different and we are very excited to be able to develop climbing into our biggest tower for the first time! Only a small handful of people would have been inside this tower as it is currently only used for group abseils.
The Castle is unlike any other centre in the world as it is housed in grade II-listed Victorian water pumping station which is so unique. It's a big challenge at times to work with it but it also gives us lots of potentials to push into new spaces.
The inside of the Tower is around 35m tall. Unfortunately, due to English Heritage protection, the Victorian cast iron spiral staircase, which wraps around the walls starting at 7 meters, means we won't be able to have 35-meter pitches. However, we are putting in 7 new top ropes lines ranging from 7 meters (downstairs top rope height) to 12 meters (tallest lines in the centre). These lines will be all vertical and follow the circular shape of the tower itself.
From the bottom of the routes you will be able to see to the very top of the tower! It should be pretty dramatic. So psyched!
And what about the second development due to open in May - The Pump Room?
ML: To gain access to the bottom of the Tower we had to open up a corridor space that is attached to the side of the building. This area used to look like a set of old haunted vaults! In gaining access to the Tower we were left with a long, narrow room around 13m long and 3m wide. Rather than just using this as through space to get to the Tower we have built a massive continuous traversing room that will be route set to serve as training endurance for routes. We think we can get over 60 moves in one circuit alone! Hence the name "Pump room".
Exciting! How do you get to these two new areas?
ML: For both of these areas, you will use the Oak Stairs that link the café level to the Wells. The entrance is about halfway down.
What about the Mezz? Why is it getting refurbished and what will the new design offer?
ML: The original Mezz bouldering area (the blue room opposite the slabs) was built around 2006. It's a great room but it needs refurbishing due to many years of heavy use it has been getting day-in-day-out. We will be ripping out the entire wall and replacing it with a brand new one with a slightly different design.
The current design is awesome and has served us really well but because the main overhang is so steep (at 50 degrees it really dominates the space) it can cause crowding issues. One thing we are always considering when building walls is what we refer to as "the finished Castle". When building something new or refreshing a space we have to think a few steps ahead about what spaces we have currently and what the mix of walls should be in each area and overall at the Castle in the future. As you may have read in the previous blog we have extra buildings waiting to be developed and the plan is for one of them to contain lots of very steep bouldering. This means when developing the Mezz, which is a smaller space, it makes sense to reduce the overhang slightly to around 20 degrees and generally open the space up whilst maintaining super cool angles.
We have also designed a nice overhanging feature in the right-hand corner to spice things up a bit.
How will this all affect the customers?
ML: This is all happening very soon and all three areas should be open by the end of May! As the Tower is all behind closed doors, all the customers might notice is the occasional power tool noise or materials being carried in. The Pump room is nearly ready but it needs some finishing touches once the Tower is done. The Mezz will be completely shut for its refurbishment from around 12th May for a couple of weeks.
Sounds exhausting, what's next?
ML: After these 3 walls, we will start design work for a new outdoor boulder for 2019 (replacement for Battleship), the two new buildings and multiple further refurbishments of both boulder and roped walls. And dare I say, our plans currently even involve a speed climbing wall! Check back next month for further updates.

Lectio Divina: Luke 13:10-17
Ordinary Time
1) Opening prayer
Almighty and ever-living God,
strengthen our faith, hope and love.
May we do with loving hearts
what you ask of us
and come to share the life you promise.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
2) Gospel Reading - Luke 13:10-17
One Sabbath day Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues, and there before Him was a woman who for eighteen years had been possessed by a spirit that crippled her; she was bent double and quite unable to stand upright.
When Jesus saw her He called her over and said, 'Woman, you are freed from your disability,' and He laid his hands on her. And at once she straightened up, and she glorified God.
But the president of the synagogue was indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, and He addressed all those present saying, 'There are six days when work is to be done. Come and be healed on one of those days and not on the Sabbath.'
But the Lord answered him and said, 'Hypocrites! Is there one of you who does not untie his ox or his donkey from the manger on the Sabbath and take it out for watering? And this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has held bound these eighteen years -- was it not right to untie this bond on the Sabbath day?'
When He said this, all his adversaries were covered with confusion, and all the people were overjoyed at all the wonders He worked.
3) Reflection
• The Gospel today describes the cure of a woman who was crippled. It is a question of one of the many episodes which Luke narrates, without too much order, in describing the long journey of Jesus toward Jerusalem (Lk 9, 51 to 1928).
• Luke 13, 10-11: The situation which brings about the action of Jesus. Jesus is in the synagogue on a day of rest. He keeps the Law respecting Saturday and participating in the celebration together with his people. Luke tells us that Jesus was teaching. In the Synagogue there was a crippled woman. Luke says that she had a spirit which crippled her and prevented her from straightening up. This was a way in which the people of that time explained sicknesses. It was already eighteen years that she was in that situation. The woman does not speak, does not have a name, she does not ask to be cured, she takes no initiative. One is struck by her passivity.
• Luke 13, 12-13: Jesus cures the woman. Seeing the woman, Jesus calls her and says to her: Woman, you are freed from your disability!" The action of freeing is done by the word, addressed directly to the woman, and through the imposition of the hands. Immediately, she stands up and begins to praise the Lord. There is relation between standing up and praising the Lord. Jesus does things in such a way that the woman stands up, in such a way that she can praise God in the midst of the people meeting in the assembly. Peter's mother-in-law, once she was cured, she stands up and serves (Mk 1, 31). To praise God is to serve the brothers!
• Luke 13, 14: The reaction of the president of the Synagogue. The president of the synagogue became indignant seeing Jesus' action, because He had cured on Saturday: "There are six days when work is to be done. Come and be healed in one of those days and not on the Sabbath". In the criticism of the president of the synagogue, people remember the word of the Law of God which said: "Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. For six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath for Yahweh your God. You shall do no work that day", (Ex 20, 8-10). In this reaction is the reason why the woman could not participate at that time. The domination of conscience through the manipulation of the law of God was quite strong. And this was the way of keeping the people submitted and bent down, crippled.
• Luke 13, 15-16: The response of Jesus to the president of the synagogue. The president condemned persons because he wanted them to observe the Law of God. What for the president of the synagogue is observance of the Law, for Jesus is hypocrisy: "Hypocrites, is there one of you who does not untie his ox or his donkey from the manger on the Sabbath and take it down for watering? And this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has held bound these eighteen years – was it not right to untie this bond on the Sabbath day?" With this example drawn from every day life, Jesus indicates the incoherence of this type of observance of the Law of God. If it is permitted to untie an ox or a donkey on Saturday to give it water, much more will it be permitted to untie a daughter of Abraham to free her from the power of Satan. The true sense of the observance of the Law which pleases God is this: to liberate persons from the power of evil and to make them stand up, in order that they can render glory to God and praise Him. Jesus imitates God who sustains those who are unsteady or weak and lifts those who fall (Ps 145, 14; 146, 8).
• Luke 13, 17: The reaction of the people before the action of Jesus. The teaching of Jesus confuses his enemies, but the crowds are filled with joy because of the wonderful things that Jesus is doing: "All the people were overjoyed at all the wonders He worked". In Palestine, at the time of Jesus, women lived crippled, bent, and submitted to the husband, to parents and to the religious heads of the people. This situation of submission was justified by the religion. But Jesus does not want her to continue to be crippled, bent. To choose and to liberate persons does not depend on a certain date. It can be done every day, even on Saturday!
4) Personal questions
• The situation of women has changed very much since that time, or not? Which is the situation of women in society and in the Church? Is there any relation between religion and oppression of women?
• Did the crowds exult before the action of Jesus? What liberation is taking place today and is leading the crowd to exult and to give thanks to God?
5) Concluding prayer
How blessed is anyone who rejects the advice of the wicked
and does not take a stand in the path that sinners tread,
nor a seat in company with cynics,
but who delights in the law of Yahweh
and murmurs his law day and night. (Ps 1,1-2)

Armed with impeccably good taste, Katovl Menovsky has lent his efforts to some of the best parties in Berlin for over half a decade. Regularly appearing on lineups alongside regular co-conspirator and Love On The Rocks owner Paramida, his sets generally span countless genres, segueing seamlessly from leftfield house and techno to krautrock, Turkish folk, Pakistani psych and everything in between. An eclectic, globe-trotting affair from beginning to end, to sum it up in just a few words.
Until a couple of years ago, when we he wasn't digging for records or playing them out, he was probably ripping and uploading the tracks to YouTube. With a solitary entry in the last 12 months, those submissions have been pretty few and far between, but there are plenty of gems to be found on Katovl's channel.
1. Grand Prix – Eternity
Kicking things off with some slick French Italo, original released on Savoir Faire Records back in 1983. While this is arguably Bernard Torelli's finest work, fellow band member Jean-Pierre Massiera has been pretty prolific, releasing tonnes of excellent cosmic disco under various guises (his studio band Herman's Rocket were well known for their stargazing tracks back in the late '70s).
2. Else Nabu – Angst
Here's a charming synth-pop jam from German actor-come-singer, Else Nabu. We have no idea what she's saying (probably something about teenage angst), but can't help but agree with the sentiment. Songwriter Carlo Karges keeps the arrangement simple, allowing room for Else's personality to shine through on the vocals.
3. The Unknown Cases – Masimba Bele Dub (Tall Mix)
A dubbed out and elongated mix of a tribal disco classic from The Unknown Cases, a studio project between German keyboardist Helmut Zerlett and percussionist Stefan Krachten. The original version was championed by the late, great John Peel, but this one gives it a different dimension.
4. D. Bastedos – Star Whores
Playful disco not disco jam, complete with killer drum loops and a Star Wars-themed (Ewok?) rap. What more could you want?
5. Moot – Mavis
A weirdo synth-pop cut from French band, Moot, originally released in 1983. There isn't much to be found about them online, but Optimo's JD Twitch included the track in his excellent Punk New Wave Post Torch Pop Synth Beats compilation.
6. DJ Fett Burger – Disco Tre
Infectious, drum-heavy disco weirdness done as only the Norwegians can do it, taken from one of the most sought-after Sex Tags releases to date.
7. New York Edits 1 – Side B
A clandestine cut-and-paste effort, putting the scalpel to the 12″ version of Claudia Barry's 'Boogie Woogie Dancing Shoes'.
8. Lena Platonos – A Physical Exercise Unresolved
Dark Entries are making a habit of reissuing the Greek pianist and composer's best material, but here's a track yet to make the cut. Haunting, swirling electronics eddy around one another to stunning effect, but it's all about that bassline.
9. Black Merlin – 22.05
His recent efforts have encompassed field recordings from trips to Indonesia and beyond, but George Thompson AKA Black Merlin cut his teeth releasing brooding, EBM/industrial-charged chuggers. This is one of the best of that bunch, arriving on Joe Hart and Andy Blake's World Unknown imprint back in 2013.
10. Supersempfft – High On Tech (Loud-E Futuristic Edit)
Finishing things on wonky space disco trip from German band Supersempfft AKA Roboterwerke. Loud-E strips the original back to the core components, equipping it with rubberised basslines and a spongey cosmic synth hook.

Flex printing in hyderabad
3 Things to Consider When Creating Flex printing in hyderabad
With the skyrocketing growth of new businesses in the city, flex printing in hyderabad gives businesses unique opportunities to grab the attention of people. The affordable, customised solution is still largely overlooked by businesses, and flex printing is still an underutilised strategy. Instead of creating different banners and signboards, people in Hyderabad have already started using banner ads rather than investing in highly expensive advertising mediums.
Here's what makes flex printing magical for businesses, and how you can use it to your advantage.
1. Personalization
You can't speak to every single person passing through your business. You can't always be there to convey your brand message. But with affordable flex printing in hyderabad, you can make sure that your business can speak for itself. Don't write generic brand messages. Instead, keep your brand message personalized. People love it when something is for them rather than hearing something which is for mass. Meeting a professional can help you get a personalized message for your flex.
2. Don't limit the placement
Find out whether the audience is a group of young students, girls, senior citizen, kids, homemakers or professionals and place your flex banners in such locations. Find out where your target audience goes.The primary consideration for flex printing in hyderabad is that you keep things relevant as much as you can.
3. Follow a strategy
You may be thinking why you need a plan for flex printing in hyderabad, but if you dig deeper into the reasons, you will find that having a strategy for offline marketing is also very necessary. When you meet a professional flex printing service provider in hyderabad, make sure that you choose the best possible plan for both designing and placing your business flex banners. With a strategy, you can make more out of your investment in advertising.
