Well, competition among bootleg compilations is tight, what with people
getting older every minute. It feels to people like there's not
enough time to listen to an eight-minute track, let alone the full
record. Despite this, I urge you all to slow down, put your feet
up, chew your food fully before swallowing & give the whole record a
chance. If you follow my suggestion, you'll experience the full
effect of new mashup collections like 'KING OF THE ROAD - A Bastard
Pop Tribute To Dean Martin',' mARKYbOY's Motown Mashed', & my own
'Bruiseo (For Demonstration Purposes Only)'. Between these three
mashup collections, you'll find some music that'll bring you back
for repeat listens, & even an expanded sense of time awareness.
(Well, maybe)
Starting with the record I know best, 'Bruiseo (For Demonstration
Purposes Only), you'll find a thick disc chock-full of dance-
oriented mashups likely to have you up on your feet, sweating to hot
dance steps. I had already completed an album called 'Bruiseo' when
a pal pointed out to me that the tracks were fine, but the record
lacked the directness of my newest tracks. Not one to waste good
advice, I scrapped the whole album, & hit the mixing programs hard to
make a dance-themed record with songs people would find more
irresistable. So the record went from having tracks mixing artists
like Darden Smith, Timbuk 3 & The Unknowns, to more accessible
artists mashed like Depeche Mode, U2 & The KLF. 'Bruiseo' varies from
past-oriented tracks like 'Prepare To Nemesis' (Shriekback vs Torch
Song) to modern fare like 'Dooms The Commotion' (The Wiseguys vs
Azzido Da Bass) with stops along the way for plenty of known faves.

I also have a special offer for those hungry for the
very nice, but more-varied original 'Bruiseo' record. Contact me at
useo8@yahoo.com
& I'll link you up with the first 'Bruiseo'
album, full of completely different tracks.
'mARKYbOY's Motown Mashed' collects the engaging mashups that mARKYbOY
has been posting around the bootleg forums recently. Here they
become a manageable, satisfying record full of the MoTown sounds you
know put to the newer artists you are just meeting. You get gems
like 'Isley Brothers @ Kanye West High School' (Isley Brothers vs
Kanye West) & 'Let's Bleeding Stay Together' (Al Green vs Leona
Lewis) plus a new unreleased track 'Don't Look Beyond The Shackles'
(Dennis Edwards and Seidah Garrett vs Mary Mary) and lots
more. You'll find plenty of mainstream pop satisfaction dwelling among the compressed grooves of this baby. mARKYbOY only included
the post-tested tracks that had wowed many on sites such as GYBO,
SUSN, ACAS4U, Mashuptown, Mashstix , & a few that appeared as
exclusives on the massively popular mashup podcast, RAMDOM THOUGHTS.
(All sites worth googling)
If you think you'd enjoy hearing the
Supremes, the Jackson 5, or Smokey Robinson mashed with contemporary
artists such as Jordin Sparks, Leona Lewis, Kanye West and
Madonna, mARKYbOY has made it easier by far to attain that effect
aurally. If you enjoy this the way I think you will, take a look on
his site for his other recent comp, 'Black to Back - Amy Winehouse
Mashed'. It's still available packaged in a shiny new zip file
format. Grab both records here -

Now, last,but not least, I tell you of Mashup-industries's 'KING OF THE
ROAD - A Bastard Pop Tribute To Dean Martin'. I bet you never saw
that one coming. For those of you not familiar with Dean Martin, he's
the former star of movies & music responsible for such hits as
""Memories Are Made Of This", "Everybody Loves Somebody", "Mambo
Italiano", "Sway", "Volare", "That's Amore" & "Ain't That A Kick In
The Head? I'd tell you more, but it's easy to go to
www.deanmartin.com & see for yourself. Or you could ask your Aunt
Marge in the retirement home. She is dying to talk about it. Under
the direction of DJ Clive$ter, this new bootleg tribute takes DIno
into territory unheard of. A challenging record with much successful
creativity, 'KING OF THE ROAD - A Bastard Pop Tribute To Dean
Martin' gives ten bootleggers free reign over fourteen tracks to
test DIno's massive musical range against newer artists like
Thomas Dolby, Bob Marley & Beyonce. You'll marvel, gasp, & spasm to
such fine tracks as Pilchard's 'Fish Thing', DJ Schmolli's 'My Girl
Is King Of The Road', & RIAA's 'I saw Her Things', lol. In the modern
tradition of free bootleg comps, 'KING OF THE ROAD - A Bastard Pop
Tribute To Dean Martin' is available as a free download here -

Soros: U.S. influence will wane. It has already declined. For the past 25 years, we have been running a constant current account deficit. The Chinese and the oil-producing countries have been running a surplus. We have consumed more than we produced. While we have run up debt, they have acquired wealth with their savings. Increasingly, the Chinese will own a lot more of the world because they will be converting their dollar reserves and U.S. government bonds into real assets. That changes the power relations. The powershift toward Asia is a consequence of the sins of the last 25 years on the part of the United States.

Carat is the unit of weight for all gemstones. The word "carat" comes from the seed of what kind of tree?

The word "carat" comes from the seed of the carob tree pod which is found in tropical climates. These seeds were used until this century to weigh precious gems.

Alan J was first, and correct, with:
B Carob
Jim from CA replied:
Carob
Marian the Teacher answered:
carob
Charlie responded:
Remembered this from research on the last carat question.
B Carob
The idea is that all carob seeds are practically identical, making them perfect as standard weights. The trouble is, that turns out not to be true, as Lindsay Turnbull from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, and colleagues found out.
The team collected and weighed 550 seeds from 28 carob trees in Mallorca and found they are just as variable in weight as seeds from 63 other species of tree (Biology Letters, DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2006.0476).
Sally said:
No time for research, but as I recall, the answer is (B) Carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua). A way back when, carob seeds were used to measure gold, (since the seeds had a consistent weight).So, hence, we get the word carat from that.
PS: Will this day never end? (If I could bottle the energy from my g/kids, I would be rich beyond imagination!)
MAM noted:
The word "carat" comes from the seed of what kind of tree?
Carab Tree!
The term "carat", the unit by which diamond weight is measured, is also derived from the Greek word kerátiòn, alluding to an ancient practice of people in the Middle East weighing gold and gemstones against the seeds of the carob tree by using simple hand held or platform mounted pan balances. The dealer placed the requisite number of carob seeds in one pan and added gems or gold in the other pan until the two pans hung level. Although this sounds primitive, a practiced user can get very accurate weights, and such tools are still in use in much of the world, although carob seeds have been replaced by tiny, carefully calibrated metal "weight standards" marked in carats or grams., with one carat fixed at 0.2 grams.

The most obvious answer is B: Carob, so I really should make another choice. But I'm not going to. I'm sticking with the obvious and the tasty answer.

Tie-dyed T-shirts and political slogans made for a heady mixture as the four surviving members of the rock band Grateful Dead put on a concert in support of Barack Obama.
Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart hit a Penn State University stage Monday night to play for about 15,000 people.
It was the quartet's first show together since a 2004 reunion tour. Hart, Weir and Lesh had already jammed together in support of Obama in February in California.
After Gregg Allman and Butch Trucks of the Allman Brothers Band opened the show, Obama supporters including Penn State assistant football coach Jay Paterno and cornerback Lydell Sargeant took to the stage to endorse him. A taped video message from Obama himself also was projected on a scoreboard.
Tim McGraw says his record label, Curb Records, released a greatest hits package of his songs against his wishes and without his involvement.
McGraw, 41, said in a statement Tuesday that he's been working on a new studio album for more than a year, playing some of the new songs on tour and wanted to release the CD this fall.
But instead, he said, Curb Records released the greatest hits collection - his third overall and second since just 2006 - last week to extend his recording contract term.
The singer said he had no involvement in the creation or presentation of the record, "Greatest Hits 3."
For middle-aged and older adults, searching the Internet could be a boost to the brain, a new study suggests.
The new study, to be detailed in an upcoming issue of the journal American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry, looked at the brain activity of 24 neurologically normal volunteers between the ages of 55 and 76 as they searched the Internet. Half of the participants had experience surfing the Web, while the others did not.
All the study participants showed significant brain activity during the book-reading task, specifically in the temporal, parietal and occipital lobes of the brain, which are involved in controlling language, reading, memory and visual abilities.
But Internet searches revealed differences between the two groups. While all the participants showed the same activity as during the book-reading, the Web-savvy group also registered activity in the frontal, temporal and cingulate areas of the brain, whereas those new to the net did not. (These areas of the brain control decision-making and complex reasoning.)
A week after endorsing Democrat Barack Obama for president, Christopher Buckley, a writer and son of William F. Buckley Jr., is leaving National Review, the conservative magazine founded by his father more than 50 years ago.
"Within hours of my endorsement appearing in The Daily Beast it became clear that National Review had a serious problem on its hands," Buckley wrote in a blog posted Tuesday on thedailybeast.com, the online broadsheet founded by Tina Brown.
"So the next morning, I thought the only decent thing to do would be to offer to resign my column there. This offer was accepted - rather briskly! - by Rich Lowry, NR's editor, and its publisher, the superb and able and fine Jack Fowler."
On his blog posting Tuesday, Christopher Buckley - whose books include "Thank You for Smoking" and the recent "Supreme Courtship" - said he had received a great deal of angry e-mails and observed that "conservatives have always had a bit of trouble with the concept of diversity. The GOP likes to say it's a big tent. Looks more like a yurt to me."
After more than four decades of standing out with a larger format than other magazines, Rolling Stone will step back and look like everyone else starting with the Oct. 30 issue, due out this week.
The adoption of a standard format could boost single-copy sales and reduce production costs for advertising inserts such as scent strips and tear-out postcards. The magazine says any cost savings, though, will be offset by the inclusion of more pages and the shift to thicker, glossier paper.
Rolling Stone chose Barack Obama, who is campaigning for president on a theme of change, for the cover of the Oct. 30 issue. By contrast, the last issue in the oversize format featured a cartoon of Obama's opponent, John McCain.

Lisa Marie Presley has named her newborn twin daughters Finley and Harper.
Cindy Guagenti, a publicist for the 40-year-old singer, confirmed the names Tuesday, a week after Presley, who lives in the Los Angeles area, gave birth by Caesarean section.
Presley is the daughter of Elvis Presley and is married to music producer Michael Lockwood. She has a 19-year-old daughter, Riley, and a 15-year-old son, Benjamin, from her marriage to musician Danny Keough, which ended in 1994. She was briefly married to Michael Jackson and to Nicolas Cage.
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whose reformer image took a hit in a report concluding she abused her powers to settle a family score, has skirted state ethics rules before for personal benefit and used her office to help friends and supporters, according to an Associated Press review of records.
Palin's first try at statewide office, after six years as mayor of Wasilla, was an unsuccessful run for lieutenant governor in 2002. To raise money, she improperly used her City Hall office and equipment, city records show. A year later she would make headlines by blasting a fellow Republican for, among other things, improperly using his government position to boost his campaign.
Then, in 2006, Palin won the governor's race with a vow to reform state ethics. But in less than two years, she has repeatedly taken actions that violated her own stated standards for ethical behavior - if not state law. In the process, the Republican vice presidential nominee has become much like the old-school politicians she attacked during her rise to power.

The children of Coretta Scott King and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. faced off in an Atlanta courtroom Tuesday in a dispute over their mother's personal papers that could derail a lucrative book deal.
The Rev. Bernice King, Martin Luther King III and Dexter King have looked more like adversaries than siblings in recent months. The surviving three King children are involved in three lawsuits.
Dexter King, as the head of his father's estate, is seeking his mother's papers, which are currently in his sister's possession. Bernice King is refusing to turn over the papers, claiming her mother did not want to participate in the $1.4 million book deal.
Communication between the siblings is limited now to messages between attorneys, Dexter King said. When asked if his feelings were hurt, he said he was "beyond that" and "numb" to the situation. Still, he said he held out hope for reconciliation.
Officials say that a John Travolta movie has suspended filming in one of the Paris area's toughest housing projects after 10 cars to be used in the movie were burned.
Filming of some scenes of the action movie "From Paris With Love" was supposed to start this week but local officials and the production company say it was put on hold because the cars were burned by unknown suspects early Monday.
Cars are regularly burned in French housing projects, most famously during rioting that raged for three weeks in 2005 in poor neighborhoods across the country.
The mayor's office of Montfermeil, where the housing project is located, says 90 residents were to serve as extras. The Europacorp production company says only that filming of the housing project scenes is suspended pending a review.
Gary Coleman pleaded not guilty to charges of disorderly conduct and reckless driving Tuesday, his lawyer said.
Both charges are misdemeanors and stem from a September incident at a bowling alley in Payson, about 60 miles south of Salt Lake City. Coleman lives in nearby Santaquin.
According to court documents, Coleman, his wife and his bodyguard were bowling in early September when Colt Rushton took a few photos of Coleman with his cell-phone camera and took a few more of Coleman's truck in the parking lot.
On Sundays, the sound of a saxophone marries murmuring voices and drifts out of Saint John Will-I-Am Coltrane Church.
Two dozen or so parishioners arrive and wriggle into their seats as Archbishop Franzo Wayne King blows his horn in a soft, welcoming solo before the more bombastic "sound baptism," the term King coined for the religious experience he and his wife had at a Coltrane concert in 1965 that eventually led the the church's founding.
The small, storefront space fills with the musky smell of incense as King's wife, the Rev. Mother Marina King, and the Sisters of Compassion begin with an opening prayer: "Cleanse us, oh Lord, and keep us undefiled that we may be numbered among those blessed ones." Parishioners - some dreadlocked, others dressed in their Sunday best; some black, some white - sing along or clasp their hands and hang their heads in prayer.
For decades the church had a growing following, and has been profiled in The New York Times, Life magazine and the BBC. Ten years ago it was common for a passerby to see the famous storefront church's Sunday congregation spilling out onto the sidewalk. These days they are more likely to see empty chairs between the dancing congregation members.
