TOMS RIVER – On July 7 at 8 p.m. there will be a wrap on the 2020 Primary Election, although there will still be counting to do afterward.
A Primary Election is when voters of a particular party choose who will represent them at the polls in November. You must be registered as a member of a party to vote in a Primary.
Voting regulations are different now, and local officials have been pushing to make sure that residents know how to vote easily and safely in the July 7 Primary Election.
If you haven’t mailed in your ballot yet, you can bring it in person to Mancini Hall in the Ocean County Library before 8 p.m. today.
Additionally, there will be five locations where people can drop off their mail-in ballots.
Much of this election will be done by mail, officials said, because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Recently, county workers have been sending mail-in ballots for people registered as Republicans and Democrats. They were also sending mail-in ballot applications for unaffiliated voters.
Ballots returned by mail must be postmarked no later than 8 p.m. July 7. The deadline for delivering your ballot in person to the Ocean County Board of Elections or placing it in one of the secure drop boxes is also 8 p.m., July 7.
There will be a limited number of polling places open on Election Day. They will be closing by 8 p.m. However, only provisional paper ballots will be available at those locations. Don’t bring your vote-by-mail ballot to a polling place and do not expect to vote on a voting machine at the polling place, officials have said.
There will be no sample ballots distributed for this election as in the past but they are available to view it on the Ocean County Clerk’s website at oceancountyclerk.com and will also be posted at the limited number of polling places open on Election Day.

This past week has seen some much welcome rain over the area. There is nothing like the natural water to make the vegetables and flowers go ahead in leaps and bounds and husband John has been pleased with his vegetable garden that is producing well - helps keep the fridge full and he has even been giving some away to friends.
Noticed quite a bit of colour in the Manning River and even a rise but thankfully nothing too major to cause problems. The farmers should be happy to see their paddocks taking on a very nice green and plenty of feed for their stock.
Tinonee Historical Society held its first meeting since July and dealt with a number of matters. Members are pleased with the continued progress on the display shed which is having some finishing touches added and hopefully will soon be able to show off a number of larger items.
With COVID still around it has been decided to postpone the garage sale planned for December 4 to a date in 2022. The museum will continue to operate three days a week with the Christmas break to be taken from Thursday, December 23 till January 11. Visitors are still welcome providing they observe the regulations regarding COVID.
With Christmas not all that far away, many of the local organisations are starting to plan their Christmas parties and these included the Wingham RSL Sub-branch after their December 1 meeting. Wingham RSL Day Club will also hold theirs the following Monday. Hopefully Santa will be able to make a visit to both these events.
Last week saw a number of special events held at the Tinonee Public School including a book parade. Unfortunately parents/carers were unable to be present due to COVID regulations.
On the same day Year 6 students conducted a special market day which raised funds towards "Helping the Manning River Turtle".
This week year six students took part in their High School Transition and held their "fund day" and next Monday, November 29, intensive swimming will begin with swimming for sport commenced on Friday, November 12 for four weeks at the Taree Pool.
Donations towards the P and C Christmas raffle are being accepted and can be left at the school office. Meanwhile helpers are still needed urgently for canteen duty - if you can help out please contact the school.

Roller conversion kit Cam follower Audi S3 8P, VW Golf 5 GTI, 6R 2.0 TFSI EA113
Tired of defective pump tappets? The roller tappet kit for the 2.0L TFSI high pressure pump offers the optimal solution!
The conversion kit to roller tappets has the advantage that the contact surface of the cam is much larger than the original cup tappet. As a result, the force can be distributed better and less friction and shear forces are generated at one point. This makes defective pump tappets a thing of the past. Defective pump tappets can irreparably damage the cam on the camshaft. Thus, the intake camshaft must be completely replaced. In addition, chips resulting from the defect can fall into the oil pan. There the balance shaft module sits together with the oil pump. A damage at this module causes mostly a capital engine damage.
Another advantage is the better guidance of the pump piston. Thus a leakage of the high pressure pump is prevented. The shaft seal of the high pressure pump can leak over time and fuel gets into the oil circuit. Consequently, the oil loses its lubricating properties and bearing damage occurs at the connecting rods!
Included in the kit is:
- Roller plunger for the high pressure pump
- Spring with adjusted spring rate
- New gasket for chain case
- Adapter flange CNC milled
- Screws with washers galvanized
The original camshaft housing must be machined.

LAKKI MARWAT: The Pakistan Army on Wednesday returned weapons it had seized from Marwat and Betani tribesmen over two years ago to avert armed clash.
A function was held for the purpose at the Lt Adnan Shaheed Sports Complex Tajazai, where civil and military officers, members of Marwat Qaumi Jirga and Behramkhel and Khankhel tribesmen were in attendance.
Brigade Commander Brigadier Waqas Zafar Raja was the chief guest on the occasion, where Tajazai camp commander Lt-Col Amir, DC Jehangir Azam Wazir and DPO Asif Gohar were also present.
In Jan 2017, tensions had escalated between Behramkhel and Khankhel tribes over a land dispute forcing the civil administration to seek help from the security forces.
The Pakistan Army along with area police had seized weapons from both sides during a search operation in a bid to prevent their armed clash.
The elders of Marwat Qaumi Jirga later requested the military authorities to return seized weapons.
MQJ leaders Akhtar Munir, Haji Mohammad Aslam Khan and Naseer Mohammad Khan appreciated the move and said Betani and Marwat tribesmen would render all possible sacrifices to safeguard the country.
They said the weapons would be helpful in promoting peace.
The elders asked the local administration to expedite the process of settling land disputes between Marwat and Betani tribes.
Brig Waqas praised the MQJ for helping eliminate terrorism from and maintain peace in the district.
“The peace prevailing in the area is enough to prove that the tribesmen didn’t allow miscreants to use their soil for carrying out activities,” he said.
He asked Marwats, Betanis and other tribesmen to help the security forces secure the country’s western borders.
“The huge Chinese investment in the shape of CPEC promises our socioeconomic development through generation of employment opportunities for our youths,” he said.
Brig Waqas said the enemies didn’t want to see Pakistan become a prosperous and developed country.
“While aiming to win the upcoming elections and maintain a hold in the region through resorting to aggression against Pakistan, the Indian leadership fears it will lose influence in Afghanistan after the withdrawal of American troops,” he said.
He said the Pakistan Army with the support of the nation would defend the country.

Theresa May's immigration crackdown could be like writing 'no dogs, no blacks, no Irish' in a 1950s guest house window, Andy Burnham has warned.
The shadow home secretary made the shock claim over Right to Rent, a scheme that will fine landlords up to £3,000 for letting to illegal immigrants.
He said research smashes David Cameron 's vow to end the scandal of people being rejected for having 'ethnic-sounding names'.
Yet 27% of landlords admit being reluctant to let to people with foreign accents or names under the rules, according the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants.
The charity's online survey of 31 landlords also found 42% were less likely to let to someone without a British passport.
Mr Burnham today called on the PM to 'overrule' his own Home Secretary and scrap the plans.
He wrote in the Independent on Sunday: "On this evidence, 'Right to Rent' in its current form could lead to widespread discrimination.
"Of course, we have come a long way as a society since landlords displayed unwelcoming notices in their windows.
"But the new document checks could become the modern equivalent of the 'no dogs, no blacks, no Irish' signs and, by being more insidious, such casual discrimination will be far harder to challenge."
The Right to Rent rules are being introduced as part of the Immigration Bill in the House of Commons on Tuesday.
They will force landlords to check their tenants' immigration statuses or face fines of up to £1,000, rising to £3,000 for a second offence.
SNP MP Stuart McDonald blasted Theresa May for using 'divisive and inflammatory' language in her conference speech .
He added: "We also have serious concerns about the disruption that will be caused to citizens going about their lawful business - especially ethnic minority citizens - from extensive new enforcement powers and checks."
Home Office officials have issued 10 pages of guidance on how landlords can avoid breaking discrimination rules.
A spokesman said Right to Rent has 'never been targeted at people with a lawful right to be in the UK'.
He added: "Right to Rent checks must be performed on a non-discriminatory basis – landlords are advised to check and record identity documents for all new tenants. Anyone who discriminates would be breaking the law.
"An expert consultative panel, which includes the Equality and Human Rights Commission, as well as representatives of landlords and letting agents, advised on the implementation of the first phase of the scheme in the West Midlands.
"Many landlords were already carrying out similar checks before the scheme started, and many in the West Midlands have reported that it is possible to incorporate the checks into normal tenant vetting procedures."

An action-packed adventure is waiting for Chinese anime fans in 2023 as one of Tencent’s projects this year is Biao Ren or Blades of the Guardians. The Chinese company once again highlights that Blades of the Guardians is already in production and they further confirmed it during their 2021 Conference where they unveiled the title as one of their upcoming new donghua but for their 2021-2022 lineup. However, the most latest announcement has unveiled that Biao Ren: Blades of the Guardians release had been scheduled on June 1, 2023; making it one the most highly anticipated donghua of the year.
A nerve-wracking action donghua that brought the chaotic historical era of the Sui dynasty to our plate this year. It revolves around assassins, man-eating demons, and a whole conspiracy where people’s emotions go haywire and the turmoil of war is everywhere. Now, this premise simply looks like an exciting historical adventure set in Ancient China with so much blood and gore with various elements involving politics, demons, and drama on the battlefield.
Blades of the Guardians Overview
Blades of the Guardians is one of Tencent’s Chinese anime in 2021 and was based on a manga of the same title by author and artist Xu Xian Zhe and published in 2015. The manhua is also known by other titles such as Dart People, Hyojin, or Hyoujin, and had been originally published on Shonengahosha and serialized on Manga DX. It was published by Tencent Comics and Kuaikan Manhua, while it has been scanned and translated for international readers by subbing groups White Cloud Pavilion, and whyfalalala.
If you wish to read the manhua, you may read it at Tencent Comics and Kuaikan Manhua in the Chinese language respectively:

“Escorts” are warriors paid to take out the targets wanted by the government. Dao Ma is one traveling warrior trying to repay the debt he owes to a man named Mo, who took care of Dao Ma and his child, Xiao Qi. But on the way back to Mo’s town, they encounter a victim of the “rakshasa”—man-eating demons. Between the rise of rakshasa victims, bloodshed, slavery, and ruthless warriors, Dao Ma becomes caught up in the terror sweeping through the country during the last years of the Sui dynasty.Source: My Anime List
The announcement that Blades of the Guardians is coming as a donghua in 2021 was made during the Tencent Video Animation Event last August 8, 2020, where the giant media conglomerate unveiled its Chinese anime lineup for next year. However, it seems that it’ll be delayed and might be pushed to 2022 until Tencent makes a new announcement that it is still running for release this year. Nevertheless, the production committee had already confirmed that the series is part of the 2021-2022 lineup of Tencent (later revealed to be a 2023 release), an announcement which was accompanied by a new key visual and a new PV that further highlights the exciting shounen vibes and actions that fans should expect from the series upon its release.
Blades of the Guardians are among the upcoming donghua that caught my attention due to its spectacular trailer which left me wondering and craving for more as it has shown promising scenes with good fight scenes that any Shounen fans will want to watch. The art and graphics are also beautiful and compliments the historical setting of the story well.
Story-wise, Blades of the Guardians has so much to offer. It has similar vibes to some of the most popular seinen anime such as Berserk, Vagabond, and my favorite from the 2019’s lineup – Vinland Saga. If there’s anything that donghua fans should watch out for from this show, it’s definitely the fight scenes because the manga had shown us plenty enough worth craving.
Trailer and PVs
I have there the trailer for Blades of the Guardians, it’s flashy and convincing enough to make you ask for more and want to watch the donghua as soon as possible.
Tencent unveiled a new PV for Blades of the Guardians during their 2021 conference last August 8, 2021, as shown below.
Here we also have frame comparisons between the Blades of the Guardians manhua and the scenes shown from the donghua adaptation. [Via 全世界都不如一个你]
Biao Ren: Blades of the Guardians Character PV
Biao Ren: Blades of the Guardian’s First Character PV features Dao Ma. Now, with this PV, it will only be a matter of time until Blades of the Guardians will unveil its release date which was later revealed to be on June 1, 2023.
After Dao Ma, the next character PV that the production committee has unveiled is a concept intro for the fierce lady in the group, it’s Ayuya as shown below:
There’s also the feature PV for our white-haired assassin Shu:
Aside from Dao Ma and the main characters, various characters PV for Biao Ren had been unveiled and posted on its official Weibo page which also includes those promotional videos for Xiaoqi, Yan Ziniang, and many more.
Furthermore, the same page also posted the latest full trailer for Biao Ren which features Dao Ma, Shu, Ayuya, and Lang Zhi Shi in a bloody encounter with some mercenaries. Check it out below:
Animation Studio and Release Date
So, which Chinese anime studio is handling Blades of the Guardians? That might have been the question for some of us, especially if we will all be concerned with the quality of its animation and fight scenes. The donghua will be animated by Colored-Pencil Animation Design which is famous for animating The King’s Avatar Season 2. It also animated its 2018 OVA – All-Star Competition, and its prequel movie – The King’s Avatar: For the Glory. According to its latest announcement, the series will start airing on June 1, 2023, on Tencent as part of the early summer releases.
While we have some flashy fights from the 2nd season of The King’s Avatar, I still believe that Colored-Pencil’s best work to date in animation quality is The King’s Avatar Movie: For the Glory. I sincerely admire the animation quality of its fight scenes and even the graphics that looks alive and vibrant as well as the character designs.
Where to Watch Biao Ren / Blades of the Guardians?
The series is part of Tencent’s 2023 Chinese anime lineup and we can always check its official page on Tencent Video. It will also be available for audiences outside of China on Tencent’s international streaming app and outlet, WeTV.

Apparently, my painting moxie has been as weakened as my immune system, so it's a struggle to decide what I want to paint. I've been re-reading one of my fave handbooks, "Art & Fear", so I will be getting back to that easel soon. If only to mush paint around as before.

Slowing us down one way or another

As a policymaker, you greet each day with the expectation that the policy you have supported, lobbied for, and in some instances, championed and even authored, is not only enacted, but better yet … works! That’s the holy grail for any policymaker, a policy that works. A policy that positively impacts the lives of your constituents and can be used in the best of cases as a model for other districts.
Policymakers are plowing ahead these days in Europe, seeking to do just that. We all know that highway speeding claims lives. Texting while driving does as well but speeding at excessive rates really ups the ante. So, it should come as no surprise that the goal of any city, worldwide, is to get folks driving at lower speeds, responsibly. The European Union is supporting this motion with a policy objective of requiring speed-limiting coupled with emergency braking technology in all new vehicles beginning in 2022. Otherwise known as intelligent speed assistance, the technology uses video cameras and satellite data (location) to detect when drivers exceed the limit and the engine will then be tapped into to restrict power. Sound a bit controlling? You bet, and that’s where the challenges are coming.
It should be noted that drivers can override the system by pressing the gas pedal harder. But the simple act of your car slowing via a third party has folks thinking that if some other entity knows you’re speeding, you should likely do the right thing and pop back into “responsible citizen” mode. The Union believes this type of technology could reduce fatalities by up to 20 percent. The initiative has made it through the committee stage and to be ratified and made official a confirmation from the full Parliament and member state ministers is required. Throughout the European Union speed limits vary dramatically. On Germany’s storied autobahn for example, there is no limit and the country prefer it that way. In fact, a recent measure to apply a limit was flat out rejected by German voters.
Neighboring France however has something a bit different – limits for good and bad weather. This has worked in some instances but still falls in and out of favor with voters. It is probably safe to say that most individuals want less traffic fatalities, and we can agree likely agree that excessive speeding is a cause. But nobody wants to be told to slow down. That’s the stubbornness in us all.

(Boston, Revised 11/13/09) New England Law | Boston: On Tuesday, October 13, Colombian Prosecutor Fabio Humar spoke to students and faculty in a Center for Law and Social Responsibility “LawMatters” presentation on his nation’s evolving political situation and legal system. The event was co-hosted by the CLSR, Latin American Law Student Association, and the International Law Society.
In an engaging discussion, Humar traced the histories of Colombia’s guerrillas, paramilitary groups, and political groups, and credited President Uribe’s re-enforcement of the military for the decline in kidnappings and narcoterrorist violence.
The second portion of the lecture focused on the dramatic change in Colombia’s legal system. The modifications, strongly encouraged by the United States, have resulted in a system largely similar to ours. However, Humar noted the trade-off that is accompanying the adoption of the new, adversarial system of justice over the previous inquisitorial system, which granted broad powers to the prosecution at the expense of the accused.
Though civil liberties are enhanced, efficiency is lost. As this new system continues to develop, it will be interesting to watch the effect on Colombia’s political groups and on the nation's overall safety.
In fall 2006, Humar was one of two Colombian prosecutors selected during a national competition, held by the Partners of America and the United States Department of State, to intern at the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office in Boston. In 2008, he was the CLSR’s first Attorney-in-Residence.
LawMatters events are hosted by the CLSR throughout the academic year, featuring panel discussions, guest speakers, and faculty-led talks where students, faculty, and members of the legal community debate current legal issues.

Clyde and Hebrides ferries delayed again until end of 2023
The two overdue ferries for the Clyde and Hebrides route are now scheduled to come into service in 2023, five years later than originally planned.
Economy secretary Kate Forbes told MSPs that while progress had been made since the Scottish Government nationalised the Fergus Marine shipyard in 2019, it had “not been as fast as we would have liked, largely due to ongoing legacy issues.”
But she insisted the government had made its expectations clear to the board of the shipyard and that the two vessels must be delivered as soon as possible.
Scottish Labour has said Forbes must “stake her reputation” on the ferries and resign if they are not delivered next year.
David Tydeman, who took over as CEO of Ferguson Marine in December, has written to MSPs on the Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee to confirm the new timetable and costs.
It is expected the first will launch between March and May next year, while the second will be delivered between October and December 2023.
The further delay has been put down to necessary remedial works due to ongoing and unknown legacy issues.
The costs of the additional work, plus a new warranty cost, is expected to increase the price tag of the ferries by £122.5– 126.5m.
This takes the total expected cost to £240m, two and a half times higher than the original £97m.
In a statement in the Scottish Parliament on Wednesday afternoon, Forbes said: “I expect the yard, as a priority, to complete those vessels successfully at the fastest most achievable pace. I expect the yard to turn around its operations so it’s competitive, productive and efficient. And I expect the yard to win and secure a further pipeline of work on the basis of its operations.”
It follows a damning report from Audit Scotland which highlighted “multiple failings” in the procurement process for the ferries, including a lack of transparency around decision making.
The public spending watchdog reported that ministers pressed ahead with the award of the contract to Ferguson Marine despite concerns raised by CMAL (the body which will eventually own the ferries) regarding a full refund guarantee.
The cabinet secretary said she accepted the report’s recommendations and work was already underway to respond to a number of them, including strengthening relations between CMAL and Ferguson.
Scottish Labour’s transport spokesperson Neil Bibby said ministers failed to put in place financial safeguards “from the very start” and it was island communities who were bearing the brunt of the problem.
Urging Forbes to resign if the ferries were not ready next year, he said: “If you are not confident enough, cabinet secretary, to stake your position on this, why should any islanders have any confidence in what you’re saying now? And what is the point in being responsible for this if you’re just going to keep passing the buck?”
Forbes said the government had been “quite clear” about what it expected from the shipyard.
The Scottish Tories’ Graham Simpson said ministers “should be ashamed” of the Audit Scotland report.
He called for a full public inquiry into the awarding of the contract, but Forbes refused to back to suggestion, insisting the Audit Scotland report and an inquiry held by a Scottish Parliament committee had been “comprehensive” and “thorough”.

Three new buildings were constructed, including a megadome for machinery and a room for drying and cleaning grain. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada researchers specialize in fodder plants and soil composition, while those at Laval University specialize in field crops, such as corn or soybeans.
Previously working on a few lands scattered on the South Shore of Quebec, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada had the ambition to “establish itself in the long term to be able to do bigger things”, explains the Assistant Deputy Minister Gilles Saindon. “We are in the process of creating a unique center in Canada”, said Mr. Dufour, who maintains that without the financial contribution of the federal government, Laval University would not have had the means to give back its letters of nobility at this farm.
Most of the research carried out aims to develop healthier agricultural products and sustainable agricultural practices, without pesticides or other chemicals.

How do Maury County taxpayers know that they have a well-run, efficient, local government? The answer is: We don’t!
Each year Maury County department heads and elected officials submit their budget wish list to our 22 elected commissioners, who attempt to understand what is needed, over what is wanted. There is no model to compare the performance of one department to another.
Maury County’s budgeting process consists of taking last year’s budget, adding in the expected pay raises, health care and benefit increases, additional capital to replace existing equipment, any expected increases/decreases in purchased materials and commodities, and whammo, we get a new larger budget number. This budgeting process guarantees the taxpayer a rising cost of local government and the need for raising additional tax revenue.
From 1986 until 2009 Maury County’s annual budget increases were funded by an expanding local economy and property tax base, which was driven by an expanding housing construction/sales bubble, property value appreciation and population growth.
With the Great Recession, all that changed in 2009, when our local government began relying on the additional tax revenue provided by the state and federal TARP dollars to balance the budget. In the meantime, unemployment soared, GM received additional tax abatement for moving jobs to Lansing, Mich., Maury County’s average residential sales price declined, construction of new homes plummeted, small businesses closed and sales tax revenues fell.
Still to come is the re-assessment of Maury County’s residential and commercial property values, and by all predictions it will also decline. The question remains as to whether or not our property taxes and tax rate will decline as with it. In the meantime, our elected officials want to borrow more money, on top of the $91 million we owe, to construct a railroad spur at Cherry Glen, build a $35 million justice center, construct a new Industrial park near Interstate 65 and build a new high school with money we don’t have.
The question remains: How do we know if we have a well-run county government? Again, the answer is, we don’t.
We will never know until the commission conducts an honest and truthful evaluation of each department’s performance and compares it to similar well run departments in one of Tennessee’s similarly sized counties. If you go online and Google “Robert Otwell Maury Regional,” you will find a short video of an interview with Otwell explaining how Maury Regional Medical Center moved from the average healthcare system to a leading award-winning hospital. Otwell explains that most organizations have a hard time with focusing on objectives and goals. He recommends the Malcolm Baldridge process to help every organization focus and says that the Baldridge process was extremely helpful with accountability.
“We all seek excuses,” he says, “and the Baldridge process keeps you accountable. Benchmarking establishes a baseline. Annual targets for organizational performance are set each year. If a manager or leader is not on target then through a feedback process, you hold the leader accountable to get back on target.”
Some commissioners are very familiar with the Baldridge process and could also be a resource to the departments in this effective managing tool.
If we take the Baldridge process and review Tennessee’s 95 counties and their various departments in cost and operations, we would have hard data about who has a best performing operation at the lowest cost.
For example, the Maury County’s Trustee’s Office. The current budget provides for a $301,514 annual cost of operation and is requesting about $14,000 more this year. The trustee’s office is a state constitutional office, and the responsibility of these offices are similar across Tennessee.
The Tennessee Trustee’s Association website explains that the elected Trustee is the “county banker and tax collector, and maintains control over taxpayer funds until they are distributed on a monthly basis to government agencies.”
The 2010 U.S. census listed Maury County with 80,956 people. Who has the most efficient, highest-performing, lowest-cost trustee office in Tennessee? When you compare the 2011-12 trustee budget of Anderson County, which has a population of 75,157 we find that they have a budget of $585,945 per year. However, Bradley County with a population of 98,963 and a trustee budget at $83,047. In checking Wilson County, with a population of 113,993, the budget is $200,110 per year. Why is there such variation? There may be legitimate reasons for the variation, but the Baldridge benchmarking process would clarify the differences and provide a model for the commissioners. This process could be very helpful to our elected representatives in establishing the annual budget and justifying property tax rates.
Of course, if they need an expert in the process, they have Otwell, who I’m sure would be very helpful at coaching our department heads on the process to get the biggest bang out of the taxpayer’s hard-earned dollars. The added bonus would be that our commissioners have a reference point for which department manager is doing his/her job and who needs to be held accountable at budget time.

He continued solo and with Black Sabbath before ultimately reuniting with Deep Purple. The band is releasing its twentieth album and conducting a farewell tour in 2017. Ian Gillan is the lead singer of Deep Purple.

Twenty five year old Los-Angeles-based producer / multi-instrumentalist Miguel Baptista Benedict apparently spent the years spanning 2008-2012 self-producing no less than 25 albums. After initially sending a couple of his tracks to Flying Lotus on a whim back in 2008, this debut album on Brainfeeder ‘Super(b)-Child-Ran’ sees Benedict and FlyLo collecting together ten tracks from six of his completed albums. It’s certainly not easy to categorise what Benedict is doing here, with gentle guitar-led passages suddenly leading into jarring walls of processed vocals and distorted electronics, and indeed the fact that these ten tracks were drawn from disparate albums often leads to some fairly abrupt transitions. Opening track ‘Phemy’ lures the listener in gently at first as delicate piano melodies weave a melancholic intro to ‘Subordinate CEO’s glittering collision of psychedelic flute textures and chiming guitars, the distorted horns building towards a Sun-Ra-esque crescendo as wordless backing vocals rise up against the sparse drumming.
From there on though, things start getting considerably more spiky and unpredictable, with ‘Oil Free Acne Scrub’ unleashing some curiously post-hardcore guitar and drum atmospheres that suddenly crash into a mass of squalling electronic-processing and the kind of brutal, shearing power noise you’d expect from the likes of Wolf Eyes as frigid bursts of DSP-ed noise take things out into icy isolationist territory. Elsewhere, ‘Blink 192’ manages to chart similarly jarring and abrasive territory as arrhythmic drum machines kick and sputter against sudden bursts of rewound cassette noise and buzzing bass synths, the entire track finally reaching its seemingly inevitable breakdown amidst a shearing wall of digital timestretching. There are certainly plenty of undeniably brilliant moments on show here, but taken in its entirety, ‘Super(b)-Child-Ran’ makes for a somewhat difficult and often jarring listen.

A lovely composition and intriguing spin on the topic. My only reservation is those somewhat gravity-defying breasts - otherwise the light/composition and colours work beautifully.
Wow. Great take on the concept. Beautifully rendered. Gives me a feeling of solitude and comfort.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 21 (UPI) -- A U.S. program for increasing people's confidence in district-level government in Afghanistan is to be implemented by AECOM Technology Corp.
AECOM, a California provider of technical and management support services, said the contract it received from the U.S. Agency for International Development is for the Afghanistan Stability in Key Areas-East program.
The award, which is for 18 months with an 18-month option, is worth as much as $177 million.
The SIKA-East program aims to aid Afghanistan's national government expand its authority and legitimacy through its provincial representatives.
AECOM said it will work with USAID to help provincial and district officials utilize government, donor and military resources for local programs and infrastructure projects to boost resident confidence and improve local stability.
The districts where the program will be implemented will be chosen by the Afghan government and U.S. government, AECOM said.
AECOM, through a social outreach program, had in the past helped establish 130 district councils in the mainly rural country where U.S., coalition and government forces are fighting the Taliban.
