VOLBEAT Intl Biog 7 2010
Release 13 September 2010, Vertigo Volbeat are sick and tired of music purists wagging their finger at them. They refuse to be confined to the pigeonhole of a specific genre but throw off all fetters intended to keep them on the ground. In the past four years, this thoroughly honest attitude has made the four musicians from Denmark one of the hottest acts on the rock scene. Sold-out venues everywhere, celebrated festival appearances at the Rock am Ring festival, during the Sonisphere Festival Tour, and opening for Metallica and AC/DC – and now they’re about to release their latest album “Beyond Hell/Above Heaven”. 13 September will see the arrival of the 13-track recording, and as they did on their previous four releases, the band has succeeded again in combing the sound of the Fifties with that metal flair. If you were to draw a picture of Volbeat’s sound, it would feature Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Metallica – all of them peacefully united, cool drink in hand. “Beyond Hell/Above Heaven” is a perfect mix of heavy riffs, country coolness and rockabilly hip swing. The result makes not only the heart of a headbanger, but also that of a quiff wearer beat faster. Fans of anthemnic oeuvres are likely to press the Repeat button to listen to “Fallen” again, those more into quiet sounds will love “Heaven Nor Hell”, while up-tempo buffs will get down to business listening to “A Warrior's Call”. To cut a long story short: Volbeat have refined their highly original mix of passionate riffs and haunting melodies even more, getting straight to the point. -

Punk Aesthetics in Independent "New Folk", 1990-2008
PUNK AESTHETICS IN INDEPENDENT "NEW FOLK", 1990-2008 John Encarnacao Student No. 10388041 Master of Arts in Humanities and Social Sciences University of Technology, Sydney 2009 ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Tony Mitchell for his suggestions for reading towards this thesis (particularly for pointing me towards Webb) and for his reading of, and feedback on, various drafts and nascent versions presented at conferences. Collin Chua was also very helpful during a period when Tony was on leave; thank you, Collin. Tony Mitchell and Kim Poole read the final draft of the thesis and provided some valuable and timely feedback. Cheers. Ian Collinson, Michelle Phillipov and Diana Springford each recommended readings; Zac Dadic sent some hard to find recordings to me from interstate; Andrew Khedoori offered me a show at 2SER-FM, where I learnt about some of the artists in this study, and where I had the good fortune to interview Dawn McCarthy; and Brendan Smyly and Diana Blom are valued colleagues of mine at University of Western Sydney who have consistently been up for robust discussions of research matters. Many thanks to you all. My friend Stephen Creswell’s amazing record collection has been readily available to me and has proved an invaluable resource. A hearty thanks! And most significant has been the support of my partner Zoë. Thanks and love to you for the many ways you helped to create a space where this research might take place.

The Big News This Week Is That the Israeli Media Is Reporting That Avaya
March 2012 Volume 28 Dear Subscribers, The big news this week is that the Israeli media is reporting that Avaya is set to buy Israeli videoconferencing manufacturer RADVISION for between $200-$250MM which has triggered a 19% increase in the price of RADVISION’s stock. Neither side has confirmed the transaction. The move would make perfect sense for Avaya which is currently owned by private equity powerhouses Silver Lake and TPG Capital. Silver Lake also owns AVI-SPL, the largest telepresence and videoconferencing systems integrator in the world. AVI-SPL recently purchased telepresence and managed service provider Iformata Communications giving AVI-SPL its own VNOC and nascent telepresence and videoconferencing exchange capability. Silver Lake also owns Sabre who provides the back end reservation systems for airline flights and travel management companies. Sabre recently announced that it would be adding virtual meeting reservations to its global scheduling and delivery system AND also announced a partnership with shared workspace provider Regus to add access to their 1200+ publicly available telepresence and videoconferencing rooms in 550 cities to Sabre’s Virtual Meeting Network. So… now add a capable videoconferencing endpoint and infrastructure capability to the Silver Lake / Avaya portfolio and you have a substantial collection of end-to-end videoconferencing capabilities. Of course hitting the market with another HD videoconferencing end-point isn’t going to set the world on fire, but given the fact that Avaya chairman and Silver Lake partner Charlie Giancarlo was the genesis for telepresence at Cisco I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a couple of key differentiators up his sleeve. -
Council Follies Ill Foie Gras Be Banned from the Restau- the Abuse of Prisoners in Iraq
30 CHICAGO READER | DECEMBER 9, 2005 | SECTION ONE [snip] You know what they’d say if they dared. Writing in Slate, Meghan O’Rourke points out that in recent diatribes against premarital sex, paleoconservatives Leon Kass (University of Chicago) and Harvey Mansfield (Harvard) agreed to fight on their opponents’ turf, saying things like “Without mod- esty, there is no romance”—in effect acknowledging that the language of sin won’t play anymore. Instead “they cast the sexual revolution as something that makes women unhappy, couching their critique in the Our Town fuzzy language of gratification and personal gain that we Oprah-raised kids can relate to.” —HH Council Follies ill foie gras be banned from the restau- the abuse of prisoners in Iraq.
