The stunning report Thurs- day from the Labor Department showed mounting job cuts against the backdrop of economies in the U.S. and abroad that have almost certainly sunk into a severe re- cession as businesses close across the world.

  • „Lightning Bolt“ Nachfolger Von „Backspacer“ Pearl Jam Im Oktober Mit Neuem Studioalbum
    Ob ihr neues Album "Lightning Bolt" ähnlich frisch klingt wie "Backspacer" vor vier Jahren? Pearl Jam stehen vor der Veröffentlichung ihres zehnten Albums. „Lightning Bolt“ Nachfolger von „Backspacer“ Pearl Jam im Oktober mit neuem Studioalbum 12. Juli 2013, Von: Redaktion, Foto(s): Steve Gullick Als die US-Grunge-Rocker Pearl Jam vor vier Jahren ihr Album „Backspacer“ auf den Markt brachten, glaubten einige, die Band hätte eine besonders intensive musikalische Frischzellenkur genossen: Griffiges Songwriting, modernes, leicht extravagantes Coverartwork und ein knackig-frischer Sound zeichneten das von Brendan ´O Brien produzierte Album aus. Der Produzent ist geblieben, die Songs sind neu: Im Oktober präsentieren Pearl Jam ihr neuestes Studiowerk. Es kommt vor, dass Pearl Jam vor allem mit der Seattle-Grunge-Ära der frühen Neunziger in Verbindung gebracht, als die Band um Sänger und Frontmann Eddie Vedder mit Bands wie Nirvana die Speerspitze des Genres bildete. Alben wie das 1991 erschiene „Ten“ oder der 1993er-Longplayer „Vs.“ zählen zu den besonders populären Platten der Band. Wer Pearl Jam in jüngerer Vergangenheit ein wenig aus den Augen verloren hat, der mag sich wundern, wie frisch, spielfreudig und gewissermaßen auch jung die Band auf dem im September 2009 veröffentlichten und vielbeachteten Album „Backspacer“ herüberkommt, das mit rund 32 Minuten Spielzeit recht kurz ausgefallen ist, dafür aber nach Ansicht vieler um so packender und kurzweiliger klingt. Für den 11.Oktober, also gut vier Jahre nach „Backspacer“ kündigen Pearl Jam die Veröffentlichung ihres neue Studioalbums „Lightning Bolt“, die mittlerweile zehnte Platte der Band, an. Versprochen werden im Vorfeld „klassische Gitarrensounds“ und „mitreißendes Songwriting“ (Medieninfo). Auch 12.

J. Grand2, & Volker Springel2 1Leibniz-Institut f¨urAstrophysik Potsdam (AIP), An der Sternwarte 16, D-14482 Potsdam, Germany 2Max-Planck-Institut f¨urAstrophysik, Karl-Schwarzschild-Str. 1, D-85748, Garching, Germany Accepted 2020 June 30. Received 2020 June 30; in original form 2019 October 29 ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of cosmic rays (CR) and different modes of CR transport on the properties of Milky Way-mass galaxies in cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations in the context of the AURIGA project. We systematically study how advection, anisotropic diffusion and additional Alfven-wave´ cooling affect the galactic disc and the circum-galactic medium (CGM). Global properties such as stellar mass and star formation rate vary little between simulations with and without various CR transport physics, whereas structural prop- erties such as disc sizes, CGM densities or temperatures can be strongly affected. In our sim- ulations, CRs affect the accretion of gas onto galaxies by modifying the CGM flow structure. This alters the angular momentum distribution which manifests itself as a difference in stellar and gaseous disc size. The strength of this effect depends on the CR transport model: CR advection results in the most compact discs while the Alfven-wave´ model resembles more the AURIGA model. The advection and diffusion models exhibit large (r ∼ 50 kpc) CR pressure- dominated gas haloes causing a smoother and partly cooler CGM.

    Image not found or type unknown www.juventudrebelde.cu Image not found or type unknown Aunque el saldo fianl es positivo, el fonograma de Pearl Jam explota demasiado la voz de Eddie Vedder, en detrimento del resto de los miembros del grupo Autor: Internet Publicado: 21/09/2017 | 04:52 pm La doble sensación del disco Backspacer Publicado: Miércoles 18 noviembre 2009 | 09:50:59 pm. Publicado por: Joaquín Borges-Triana Aunque han transcurrido casi 20 años, me parece que fue ayer cuando los amantes del rock en este país nos enamoramos de aquella revolución sonora procedente de Seattle y que pusiera en circulación por el mundo entero términos como grunge y rock alternativo. Nombres como Nirvana, Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Alice in Chains y Pearl Jam fueron ídolos para una generación de cubanos, así como admirados por quienes —sin pertenecer al grupo etáreo de los hoy «treintiañeros»—captamos los valores esenciales de una movida que, entre nosotros, no solo repercutió en el ámbito de los roqueros sino también en el de los cantautores. Cierto que los de entonces ya no somos los mismos. Muchas de las bandas que causaron furor en los 90 han desaparecido. También es verdad que la mayoría de los seguidores de la corriente, y que en Ciudad de La Habana colmaban los escenarios para los conciertos de una agrupación como Havana (uno de los principales cultores del estilo por acá), se han desperdigado. Empero, no únicamente queda la nostalgia por aquellos años, en los que se fue intensamente feliz. Una amiga de dicho período por estos días me ha hecho llegar un disco, que me trae un montón de recuerdos a la cabeza.

  • Roads to Zion Hip Hop’S Search for the City Yet to Come
    5 Roads to Zion Hip Hop’s Search for the City Yet to Come No place to live in, no Zion See that’s forbidden, we fryin’ —Kendrick Lamar, “Heaven and Hell” (2010) The sense of the end-times and last days must be entered in order to find the creative imagination that can reveal paths of survival and threads of renewal as chaos winds its wicked way back to cosmos again. —Michael Meade Robin D. G. Kelley, in his book Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination, argues that Exodus served as the key political and moral compass for African Americans during the antebellum era and after the Civil War.1 Exodus gave people a critical language for understanding the racist state they lived in and how to build a new nation. Exodus signified new beginnings, black self-determination, and black autonomy. Marcus Garvey’s “Back to Africa” movement represented a pow- erful manifestation of this vision of Exodus to Zion. He even purchased the Black Star shipping line in order to transport goods and people back to their African motherlands. Though Garvey’s Black Star Line made only a few voyages, it has remained a powerful symbol of the longing for home. As the dream of Exodus faded, Zion has become the more central metaphor of freedom and homecoming in contemporary black cultural expressions. Along these lines, Emily Raboteau—reggae head and daughter of the re- nowned historian of African American religion Albert J. Raboteau—explores Zion as a place that black people have yearned to be in her book, Searching for Zion: The Quest for Home in the African Diaspora.2 In her wanderings through Jamaica, Ethiopia, Ghana, and the American South and her conversations with Rastafarians and African Hebrew Israelites, Evangelicals, Ethiopian Jews, and Ka- trina transplants, one truth emerges: there are many roads to Zion.

Sketch is produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press (bepress). http://lib.dr.iastate.edu/sketch The Holy Order by Erin Elizabeth McConnell Dawn Devotionals My day begins with a prayer. Eyes pursed, warding off cursed distraction; I stumble over a childhood verse. Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I give you my heart and my soul. I repeat the prayer in quick succession, hoping that the repetition will convince me that I truly mean these words. The angry sun glares through the eyelet curtains, highlighting my iconographic surround­ ings. Tiny pictures, clipped from magazines, cruelly display all of the food which I have denied myself. I jjazc adoringly at images of ambrosia (steaming entrees, decadent desserts), all cdintin^ with Byzantine shimmer. As if these could satiate mv never-ending hunger. With my finders, I gently trace the outline of my ribs.

Before me stretches another dav, filled with food I cannot eat, and I cower beneath mv comforter once more — reluctant to proceed to the kitchen, where my nose will be assaulted by the scent of forbidden pancakes and banned bacon.
