Tyr Nichols Footage

Back in 1994, I toured his debut album From Dusk Till Dawn, recorded in California with Pete Townshend on drums. Upon arriving at my hotel, he was sitting drinking tea and wearing a slightly grubby western shirt with the sleeves pulled up low enough to expose his thick forearms from the short sleeve. He was having an inspiring conversation with me about the fact that the sun came up in the east every day, and we could all change our lives through it.


Within a few days, he decided to record a follow-up to From Dusk Till Dawn, which I would hear on MTV with Paul McCartney. Though it’s generally accepted that the first two albums from the legendary producer were excellent, the third is probably his best effort to date. They are songs of reflection and transition, of isolation and reconciliation. He has a sultry feel to them, and “Killer Mary,” “Chariots Of Cherbourg” and “The Wayward Wind” are just some of the great tunes. It’s truly inspired. I’d go as far as saying he should be featured on Prince And The City, if such a thing exists.


As a music-to-watch person myself, it’s been shocking over the past few months that nothing this week has seemed to impact me as profoundly as Nichols’ newest offering. And sure, it looks like it will most definitely be the next big thing. But I’m not sure what to think when it’s released on August 8th.


I have a feeling that something powerful will come out of it. Something that I never imagined would happen. Something worthy of study. Something that I’ve read a lot about, but never really caught wind of until now. Something that I’ll be proud to review.


Nichols may have waited for his own masterpiece, but so have we all.

Uscis Encountered An Unknown Error Retrieving Your Data

September 25, 2016: Upset you think? If you are like me and run an IOT deployment using the IoTKit backend, it can be a bit challenging to manage your deployed devices. By navigating through a process of looking at each piece of information (the device ID, configuration JSON, configuration file) one at a time, you should be able to get back to the IoTKit code quickly. Following these steps should help you to figure out what has happened is all. Run the following script in a clean Linux environment on your IOT device: sudo docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d Once up, this will prompt your user interface to connect to a network adapter, and where the data is stored. These scripts assume that you have downloaded & installed the latest Iotkit with drivers from this page: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/iotkit/index.html.​ To select a network adapter type, we use the command: sudo iotkit --display-network-adapters --connection-type=wlan0 We select the local loopback n...

(Archived from the original) In the case of a former top aide to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Manhattan district attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr. denied an indictment related to his anti-corporate trades defense tactics in the wake of the 2006 trades litigation settlement. In part, the prosecutor's decision to drop Vance's indictment hinged on the fact that allegations of fraud were based on faulty intelligence rather than proof of wrongdoing (because the case hadn't been fully investigated). Vance's decision was a dramatic reversal of the standards for a district attorney who purports to be dedicated to protecting the rights of citizens while also prosecuting businesses. Although Vance would have been better known for trying criminal cases, most people never knew him when he was merely a prosecutor. So, as a grand jury probe into possible corruption in the New York attorney general's office proceeded, Vance turned to his high-ranking deputy and close collaborator, Ma...
