Album Review: Robby Krieger & the Soul Savages - Robby Krieger & the Soul Savages

The name has changed though the music holds steady on the self-titled debut from Robby Krieger & the Soul Savages.

The 10-track instrumental LP finds the titular composer and former Doors guitarist leading keyboardist Ed Roth, bassist Kevin “Brandino” Brandon and drummer Franklin Vanderbilt across the funk-flavored landscape of the fusion Krieger’s explored for decades on such titles as “Shark Skin Suit,” “Contrary Motion” and “Math Problem.”

Krieger plays slide, traditional leads and chorded rhythm against his tight band. And though it fails to reach the highs of 2020’s Zappaesque the Ritual Begins at Sundown, Robby Krieger & the Soul Savages nevertheless peaks on the neo-soul of “A Day in L.A.” and the funky strut of “Bouncy Betty;” “Ricochet Rabbit,” is meanwhile easily confused as an outtake from Steely Dan’s Gaucho sessions.

What it might lack in consistent listener electrification across its 45-minute runtime, Robby Krieger & the Soul Savages makes up for with a former psychedelic warrior sporting - and still sounding fine in - a different swirl of aural colors.

Helen LaFrance (November 2, 1919 – November 20, 2020) was a self-taught artist born in Graves County, Kentucky, the second of four daughters to James Franklin Orr and Lillie May Ligon Orr. Known for her captures of the disappearing lifestyle of the rural South. She has been referred to as “the Black Grandma Moses.” She painted powerful and intensely spiritual visionary interpretations of the Bible, in a style that differed radically from her memory paintings.

She attended formal school for about three years but left to work on the farm. Her first painting depicting a large gray rabbit was created on the back of a leftover piece of wallpaper using watercolors given to her by her aunt. She left home to take various jobs in a hospital, caring for children, cooking, working in the tobacco barns and a ceramic factory where she decorated brand-name whiskey bottles. She made enough money to buy art supplies at the grocery store and began painting full-time.

She was an exceptional quilt maker and wood carver of animal sculptures and articulated dolls with handmade textile clothing. She shared the traditions of family and church and the values she grew up with, and recollections of coon hunts, fishing, planting and picking cotton and tobacco, growing flowers and using their petals for paint, the general merchandise store, barn dances, the circus, fish fries, family reunions, and church picnics where the community gathered together.

She created 28 religious paintings, inspired by the verses she read in a dramatic visionary style and divergent from her better-known works due to their explosive colors, themes, and size. A selection of these paintings was included in “Helen LaFrance: Kentucky Woman,” an exhibition that ran at the prestigious Speed Art Museum. The inaugural exhibit of these allegorical paintings took place at Vanderbilt University. Sponsored by the Divinity School’s Religion in the Arts & Contemporary Culture program, these images had never been displayed to the public. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

Sleeping Late Isn’t a Sign of Laziness. Stop The Circadian-Rhythm Shaming

Fellow Night Owls, take Comfort: Our Sleep-Wake Schedule is Part of Our Genetic Makeup, Not a Moral Failing

— Matthew Cantor | Monday 30th January 2023

A person’s daily sleep-wake schedule, called a chronotype, is genetic. And bias against night owls is ‘purely cultural’. Photograph: Peter Byrne/PA

It’s January, the month of new year’s resolutions and other doomed efforts at self-improvement. And what better way to make more of one’s life than rising earlier to seize the day?

At least that’s what the voice in my head says as I hit the snooze alarm for the 10th time at 9.30am. Then it’s time to get up, racked with guilt at my laziness, as if sleeping in were some kind of ethical lapse.

It’s not, of course. People’s sleep/wake cycles are inherently varied, and if you, too, are a late to bed, late to rise person, you’re simply a night owl – or, in clinical terms, you have a delayed sleep phase.

It’s time for this circadian-rhythm-shaming to end. It’s nothing new – centuries ago, Benjamin Franklin made the shockingly biased claim that “early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”. In a 2018 essay in the Cut, Edith Zimmerman wrote that “waking up early gives you a surge of power; you feel superior, smug”. More recently, a Reddit user put it simply: “Night owls suck,” the person wrote. “Your sleep habits are an [obstacle] in the path of every plan that constantly needs to be worked around.”

But night owls, take comfort: as Robin Williams once said to Matt Damon, it’s not your fault. Your daily sleep-wake schedule, called your chronotype, appears to be mostly genetic. Assessments of how common it is to be a night owl vary: experts who spoke to the Guardian had heard estimates around 15%, while a recent study in Finland found 10% of men and 12% of women to be “evening types”. A 2007 study found that the most common chronotype, accounting for 14.6% of people, slept from 12.09am to 8.18am in the absence of “social obligations” – but half the population slept later. In any case, night owls: you are not alone.

Our chronotype is “part and parcel of who we are”, says Dr Beth Ann Malow, a neurologist and sleep expert at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. “It’s not something like: ‘I’m gonna choose to be a night owl, and I’m lazy.’ It’s a biological preference.”

Dr Phil Gehrman, a clinical psychologist who specializes in behavioral sleep medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, agrees. Bias against night owls is “purely cultural”, he says, citing Franklin, who helped found his university. (Ben Franklin was also a proponent of something akin to daylight savings time, which is a whole other circadian mess.)

The 9-5 schedule might be good for earlier risers, but it works against those who need to sleep later. And that might not just be the owls: a 2014 study found that, in general, the later work and class started, the more sleep participants (who were not all owls) got. “It’s the combination of early work start and long commute that is driving short sleep,” the study’s lead author, Dr Mathias Basner, director of Penn’s unit for experimental psychiatry, division of sleep and chronobiology, wrote in an email to the Guardian.

The problem comes when we have jobs or classes that don’t align with our circadian rhythms. When the obligations of waking life clash with one’s sleep schedule so badly that it’s difficult to function, night owldom shifts from a tendency to a condition known as delayed sleep-wake phase disorder, in which one’s circadian rhythms make daily functioning difficult. About 0.2% to 1.7% of adults have this condition.

“What’s crazy,” Malow says, is that whether a person’s sleep habits are viewed as a disorder or simply a tendency “is going to depend more on their lifestyle and their employment than it is anything else.”

Malow says treatment often starts with seeing if people can adjust their work schedules to suit their biological rhythms. She describes a patient who struggled in high school but blossomed when he began working as a chef; or students who are able to sign up for late classes.

In an ideal world, she says, we’d be less rigid about work start times – in health terms, the best-case scenario would be finding ways to adhere to our own body clocks. Instead of trying to match social demands, “I would much rather [patients] stay on a consistent schedule where they’re going to bed at two and waking up at 10 or 11.” Of course, many people aren’t lucky enough to have such shifts as an option – in which case the disorder can be treated with light exposure, melatonin and exercise. Such techniques make it possible to change circadian rhythms, Gehrman says, but people have varying success rates (he has coined a term for this: circadian flexibility).

But outside of concerns over work schedules, are there fundamental health benefits to waking up early? Research has, for instance, suggested a link between late rising and poor mental health or unhappiness. But according to Gehrman, the jury is very much still out on this.

Circadian Rhythms are the physical, mental, and behavioral changes an organism experiences over a 24-hour cycle. Light and dark have the biggest influence on circadian rhythms, but food intake, stress, physical activity, social environment, and temperature also affect them.

“There are a lot of epidemiologic studies showing that being a night owl is associated with higher rates of depression and anxiety and all these things. But the open question is: is it the fact that you’re a night owl? Or is it the fact that most night owls are forced to follow a schedule that’s earlier than their circadian rhythm – what we often refer to as a mismatch,” he says. Recent studies have pointed to the latter, he says: “It’s certainly not conclusive, but that’s what we think is going on.”

The upshot is: if you’re a night owl, don’t feel bad about it, and if you’re an early bird, go easy on your night-owl friends. In fact, by painting late sleepers as lazy, you might just be supporting The Man: the British researcher Dr Paul Kelley has speculated that we stick to a 9-5 schedule because it suits fiftysomething bosses, whose age means it’s easier to get up earlier.

“People shouldn’t change their schedule because of the belief that following their schedule is bad for them,” Gehrman says. “As humans, we always seem to say if someone’s different from us, they’re therefore wrong.

“I think people should look at circadian rhythm differences the same way they look at any other differences between people.” So don’t come at us with your judgments – especially not before noon.

Franklin U (book 8): Football Royalty by Eden Finley

If you never fooled around with someone of the same gender, did you even go to high school?

PEYTON

My whole life I’ve had the pressure of being Marcus Talon and Shane Miller’s football prodigy. I’ve been destined to follow in my NFL-playing fathers’ footsteps since the day I was born. I usually thrive under pressure, but as senior year looms, it all gets too much, and I need an outlet. The last place I thought I’d find my release is at Levi Vanderbilt’s graduation party. In his bed. With him.

It’s a one-time thing. An experimentation. And while it was fun, we agree that being with guys isn’t for either of us. I’m happy to accept that until he turns up in California.

I haven’t had to think about him for four years, but now I can’t get him out of my head.

LEVI

Coming to Franklin University for grad school to follow a boy I hooked up with once is the stupidest thing I could have done.

We said that high school didn’t mean anything, but the truth is, that night made me realize who I truly am, and since then, I’ve been trying to find that sense of freedom again.

I’m hoping it can be with him, but everything I’ve heard around campus points to Peyton not having the same life-changing revelation I did.

And if that’s the case, did I just move across the country for a straight guy?

Kill me now.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Last book of this series and definitely another favorite of mine! We finally get Peyton's story. He has been mentioned throughout and we've seen his brother, Brady, appear as well (I also learned that he has his own book that happened to come out today! So yay for nice timing!). Peyton is known as the football star at Franklin U. His dads were both pro football players and now he is following in their footsteps. Peyton's done well to manage his school work and football by making sure his head is in the game. Relationships don't exist besides a hook up once in a while. But then he sees Levi and is he is brought back to four years ago. The two of them hooked up and it was both their first time with a guy and it brought many feelings. But as two awkward teenagers can be, they brush it off as nothing. But not for Levi. To Levi that was his realization that he is gay and for Peyton, he never liked a guy after that so he never bothered to claim he was bi. But Levi is now at is school and all those unresolved feelings come right on back. Levi came to Franklin U in part because of Peyton. He never forgot their last meeting and Levi is done with his father and the expectations. So he lied and transferred to Franklin U claiming to go to law school when really he is there for the art program. Peyton and Levi finally have it out and it doesn't take long for them to hook up again. But the timing isn't great. Not for Peyton who is at the end of his football season and is looking to get drafted to the NFL. He has to focus. But how can he when all he wants to do is be with Levi? Loved, loved their story! Such a great one to end it on. Levi and Peyton are such a great pair and their chemistry is fantastic. Plus, you gotta love all the side characters that is Peyton's family (many of whom I learned, have their own books, so going to have to track those down). This was a great end to this series and I'm sad it's over!

BABE PALEY

BABE PALEY

5 July 1915 - 6 July 1978

TRUMAN CAPOTE’s SWAN

            Babe Paley (Barbara Paley) was an American magazine editor and socialite. She was known for her fashion sense and was honoured on the Best Dressed List.

            Paley was born in Boston, Massachusetts, US, and was the daughter of a brain surgeon. She and her sisters, Mary and Betsey were known as the ‘Fabulous Cushing Sisters’, Babe’s debut was in 1934 which was attended by the sons of Roosevelt. Betsey married James Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt’s son.

            Paley was married twice, whilst working at Vogue magazine she met Stanley Mortimer Jr. an oil heir from a wealthy New York family and the couple married in 1940. The couple had two children and then they divorced in 1946. Their daughter Amanda married Carter Burden Jr. from the Vanderbilt family. Babe had neglected her children and concentrated on socialising and her extravagant lifestyle.

In 1946, Babe met William Paley “Pasha” who was married to Dorothy Hearts (wife of John Hearst). Paley was wealthy and divorced his wife in 1947 to marry Babe. The couple had two children together but Babe experienced loneliness during the marriage due to her husband’s constant infidelities.

            Babe is best known due to writer Truman Capote, who was close friends. Capote befriended wealthy upper-class women and called them his ‘swans’. Capote wrote a book named ‘Answered Prayers’ which exposed his friend’s secrets, under ‘fiction’. After reading the book, Truman’s swans had nothing to do with him again.

            Babe found out she had lung cancer in 1974 due to heavy smoking. She planned her funeral and the funeral luncheon. She died a day after her 63rd birthday and Truman wasn’t invited to her funeral.

Doanh nghiệp Mỹ chuẩn bị cho kịch bản chính phủ vỡ nợ

Giới chuyên gia cho rằng doanh nghiệp Mỹ cần đánh giá mức độ liên quan với chính phủ, tăng giữ tiền mặt và bán bớt trái phiếu kho bạc.

Giới chức Mỹ vẫn chưa đạt thỏa thuận về trần nợ công, khiến nước này ngày càng tiến gần rủi ro vỡ nợ. Các chủ doanh nghiệp đang trong trạng thái chờ đợi và quan sát, chuẩn bị cho kh��� năng suy thoái và sa thải nếu tình trạng vỡ nợ kéo dài.

Dù một số cho rằng Mỹ không thể vỡ nợ, Văn phòng Ngân sách Quốc hội Mỹ (CBO) hồi đầu tháng cho biết khả năng chính phủ không thể hoàn thành tất cả nghĩa vụ thanh toán trong hai tuần đầu tháng 6 "là rất lớn". Bộ trưởng Tài chính Mỹ Janet Yellen đã cảnh báo cơ quan này hết tiền sớm nhất là đầu tháng sau.

"Tất cả chúng ta đều hy vọng Mỹ không vỡ nợ. Nhưng hy vọng không phải là kế hoạch dự phòng. Các công ty cần phải tự chuẩn bị", Joshua White - giáo sư tài chính tại Trường quản lý Vanderbilt khuyến nghị.

Đánh giá mức độ liên quan với chính phủ

Một số doanh nghiệp có thể không bị ảnh hưởng ngay bởi nguy cơ vỡ nợ. Nhưng những công ty có hợp đồng với chính phủ có thể bị chậm chi trả khi Bộ Tài chính Mỹ hết tiền.

Trong trường hợp vỡ nợ, họ có thể phải chờ vài tuần. Trong thời gian đó, các chủ đất, nhà cung cấp sẽ phải tìm cách linh hoạt hơn, Harry Mamaysky – Giáo sư tại Trường Kinh doanh Columbia nhận định.

Tấm biển thông báo nợ công Mỹ đã chạm trần 31.400 tỷ USD hồi tháng 1. Ảnh: Reuters

Doanh nghiệp trong ngành quân sự và y tế có thể chịu tác động mạnh nhất. Các công ty tư nhân, ví dụ các hãng công nghệ, cũng có thể bị ảnh hưởng.

White khuyên các công ty trong các ngành này tổ chức họp thường xuyên để vạch ra kế hoạch trong trường hợp bị chậm thanh toán. CEO JPMorgan Chase Jamie Dimon đầu tháng 5 nói với Bloomberg rằng ngân hàng này đang tổ chức họp hàng tuần để chuẩn bị cho khả năng vỡ nợ.

"Đến lúc nào đó, chính phủ sẽ giải quyết được việc này thôi. Nhưng cho đến khi ấy, các công ty cần biết mình có thể chống chịu được không? Trong bao lâu? Và khó khăn sẽ ở mức nào", White nói.

Nắm nhiều tiền mặt hơn

Kể cả các doanh nghiệp không trực tiếp nhận thanh toán từ chính phủ cũng nên có kế hoạch, White cho biết. Nếu khách hàng hay nhà cung cấp của bạn không được thanh toán, nhiều khả năng họ cũng sẽ giảm chi cho sản phẩm của bạn.

White cho rằng ở tình huống này, các doanh nghiệp nhỏ không cần họp hàng tuần. Thay vào đó, họ nên giữ nhiều tiền mặt hơn, và đa dạng hóa tiền tệ dự trữ, phòng trường hợp giá USD giảm.

Chính phủ vỡ nợ có thể kéo lãi suất lên cao, khiến việc đi vay đắt đỏ hơn. "Lượng tiền mặt lớn sẽ rất hữu ích", White cho biết. Các công ty có thể làm điều này bằng cách tạm dừng các dự án lớn.

Bên cạnh đó, vỡ nợ sẽ khiến doanh nghiệp khó tiếp cận tín dụng, Kent Smetters – Giáo sư Kinh tế tại Walton nhận định. Các doanh nghiệp vừa và nhỏ thường phải đi vay để thanh toán cho các nhà cung cấp khi thiếu tiền mặt.

"Nhưng nếu tôi là ngân hàng, tôi sẽ giảm việc cho vay lại. Vì một lượng tiền gửi đã được dùng để đầu tư trái phiếu kho bạc. Chính phủ có thể không thanh toán trái phiếu đúng hạn nếu vỡ nợ", Smetters giải thích.

Bán bớt trái phiếu chính phủ

Khi các ngân hàng thận trọng hơn với số trái phiếu chính phủ đang nắm giữ, doanh nghiệp cũng cần như vậy. Nếu đang sở hữu trái phiếu đáo hạn đầu hoặc giữa tháng 6, "và bạn cần nhận số tiền đó để trả cho nhà cung cấp, bạn có thể mắc kẹt trong 1-2 tuần, khi Quốc hội tìm cách nâng trần nợ công", Mamaysky cho biết.

Trong tình huống này, ông khuyên các công ty nên cân nhắc bán bớt trái phiếu chính phủ kỳ hạn ngắn. Ví dụ như trái phiếu đáo hạn trong vòng một năm.

Cắt giảm chi tiêu về mức cần thiết

Cynthia Franklin – Giám đốc khởi nghiệp tại W. R. Berkley Innovation Labs thuộc Đại học New York – chuyên làm việc với các công ty nhỏ và startup. Lời khuyên của bà dành cho các công ty hiện tại cũng chính là những gì bà nói với các startup.

"Nếu chính phủ Mỹ vỡ nợ, chi phí đi vay sẽ tăng cao, niềm tin tiêu dùng giảm xuống. Các doanh nghiệp sẽ phải tìm cách thắt lưng buộc bụng", bà nói.

Tuy nhiên, bà cho rằng các công ty cần "linh hoạt và thích ứng", đa dạng hóa tệp khách hàng để không bị phụ thuộc vào một nguồn thu. Các công ty cũng cần tăng hiệu suất hoạt động để không chi nhiều hơn nhu cầu.

"Không chỉ trong thời kỳ suy thoái hoặc bất ổn kinh tế, lúc nào doanh nghiệp cũng cần nghĩ về việc chỉ chi tiêu cho những gì cần thiết mà thôi", bà kết luận.

What is a Horse Racing Match Race?

A match race is one of the most popular types of horse racing. This is when two horses compete on the track against each other for a purse of $500 to $700. The race is frequently fought with considerable enthusiasm and is seen as an excellent opportunity to exhibit a horse's abilities and potential.

War Admiral was a famous American horse in the late 1930s. He was the first horse to win the American Triple Crown and established himself as a notable sire in the United States. The race was remembered as a watershed moment in horse racing history.

The race between Seabiscuit and War Admiral took place at the Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland, and was regarded as one of the most exciting races in horse racing history. The two horses agreed to compete in a winner-take-all match race despite being registered in different fields.

Seabiscuit, a champion Thoroughbred, faced War Admiral, who had just won the second leg of the Triple Crown. Both were regarded as the top horses of their generation. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt Jr. and Charles S. Howard, their owners, agreed to a match race. They were excited to host it.

The match race occurred on Memorial Day in 1938, with a purse ranging from $15,000 to $25,000. The race was scheduled for winner-take-all, but the track wasn't ready. Instead, they decided to hold the race on November 1.

The Seabiscuit-War Admiral match race was one of the most thrilling races of all time. The event was held at the Pimlico Racecourse in Baltimore. It was a watershed moment for both horses and spectators.

The race between the two was a massive social event. It was so enormous that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt had to interrupt a cabinet meeting to learn about it.

Seabiscuit and War Admiral were two of history's most famous and successful horses. They both won the Triple Crown and a slew of additional awards.

For years, Seabiscuit and War Admiral have been rivals. Their owners agreed to a match race to win a large prize. Seabiscuit took the victory. He won by three lengths over War Admiral.

The match race attracted enormous attention in the racing world. Even the media began to speculate about the tragedy. It was even the subject of a film.

In the summer of 1974, the match race between two-year-old champion Foolish Pleasure and Ruffian was a textbook example of horse racing turned into a PR gimmick. Many doubts were raised, including whether or not a match race was a good idea.

Both horses were regarded as the top two-year-olds of their era. They enjoyed an eight-race winning streak at four furlongs. Their coaches were working hard to improve their early speed.

The match race was set to occur on July 6 at Belmont Park. It was going to be televised and attended by 50,000 people. Because of the media and public expectations, Janney felt obligated to enter the race.

Despite being the favorite, Ruffian crashed early in the race. A seagull flew away from the course when the horses began racing closer together.

Vasquez suspected the filly was injured. As a result, he rode her more slowly. He wished to provide her with a fighting chance.

Riley Clemmons Kicks Off Debut Christmas Tour With Sold-Out Hometown Show

Artist on the rise Riley Clemmons launched her debut Christmas tour last evening with a sold-out performance at the famed Franklin Theatre in downtown Franklin, TN, her hometown and a bedroom community to Nashville. The elegant evening featured the young singer/songwriter’s soaring yet emotive vocals on an assortment of Christmas classics accented with a handful of originals, including her Christmas hit, “The First Christmas,” which is also the name of her tour. The evening benefitted the Ryan Seacrest Foundation’s “Seacrest Studios” which reside in various pediatric hospitals across the nation. “What an absolute dream come true to kick off the Christmas season with a sold-out hometown show, especially at the historic Franklin Theatre,” said Clemmons. “It was so surreal to debut my first Christmas tour surrounded by friends and family.”

In addition to launching Clemmons’ first ever headline Christmas tour, the concert also benefitted the Ryan Seacrest Foundation. The foundation’s primary initiative is to build broadcast media centers, named Seacrest Studios, within pediatric hospitals for patients to explore the creative realms of radio, television, and new media. The aim is to contribute positively to the healing process for children and their families during their stay by developing these centers to bring an uplifting spirit to the hospital community. Clemmons has supported Seacrest Studios for the past few years, making appearances in the studios in various cities, including several times at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt in Nashville. “It was a true honor to have the privilege of celebrating and supporting my friends at the foundation throughout the evening,” said Clemmons. “I’ve had the pleasure of partnering with them many times over the past few years, and I’m so inspired by the good they’re doing in both Nashville and across the country.”

“We are incredibly thankful for the love and support Riley Clemmons has shown the Ryan Seacrest Foundation and our Seacrest Studio locations across the country,” said Meredith Seacrest, Executive Director & COO of the Ryan Seacrest Foundation. “We couldn’t continue to provide such unique and fun experiences for countless patients and families without the support of the entertainment community. From studio visits with patients to curating special art projects and concerts, Riley has and continues to be a true light for families in the hospital, in what sometimes can be very dark times.” “The First Christmas Tour” is Clemmons’ first headlining tour. Named after her hit Christmas song, the tour will hit ten cities between December 3 and December 18. For ticket information, visit rileyclemmons.com/tour. Read the full article
