For Rhythm & Blues music from the golden age of R&B - 1945 to circa 1965. Think Louis Jordan, Fats Domino, Lavern Baker, Etta James and Willie Mabon rather than Otis Redding, Muddy Waters or anyone who started recording in the CD era.

Hello,
Here's my poor attempt to sell myself like a bad infomercial. My social circle is pretty much limited to people I work with or short conversations with customers. I live in the US on the East Coast but grew up on the West Coast. I have two high-energy dogs, an Australian shepherd mix and huskie mix. I have a 1 year old son. I do enjoy cooking and making new dishes, but I am by far the worst baker. My favorite TV show is the office, please don't say parks and rec is better. I've had many random jobs in the past, with even random stories to go along with. I'm a bit of a nerd, I have a comic collection and random Star Wars collectibles, but I'm not ashamed. I have a few tattoos that have no meaning at all, and I plan on getting more soon. My music taste is stuck in the early 2000s rock, punk, and screamo. I'm just trying to make a friend outside of work.

2023.06.07 09:57 OutrageousLorikeet My cakes won’t rise..
I’m an experienced home baker and for some reason my cakes don’t want to rise. I’m barely getting an inch lift out of a regular cake batter in a fan-forced oven at 160C.
Things I know I’m doing right: - my baking powder and soda fizz just fine when tested - I am not over mixing the batter but fold the (properly sifted) dry ingredients in at the end - I am properly creaming the sugar and butter
Is there any way it could be the tin I’m baking in? If I use the same batter in a lined cupcake tin, they come out just fine? Is there anything else I could be doing wrong?

2023.06.07 09:51 Weed86 Why do gulf economies lack innovcation/struggle to create jobs for locals?
Good Thread on twitter by Ali Al Salim:
https://twitter.com/alialsalim/status/1663443727036166145?s=46&t=j3Imx9tMnBKtdBS2JSezOQ
1/ Two questions for Gulf economies are increasingly important:
a) why do they lack innovation? b) why do they struggle to create jobs for citizens?
A few overarching and persistent reasons...
2/ For decades, Gulf states facilitated what is called REGULATORY CAPTURE, i.e. when a political entity, policymaker or regulator is co-opted to serve the commercial, ideological, or political interests of a minor constituency, in this case, the "Tijjar", or merchant class.
3/ Two primary and protectionist measures were born from this: a) WAKALA - enabling a local "agency" to be sole-distributor of foreign goods and services b) KAFALA - a mandatory local sponsorship of all expat labour.
4/ What emerged was a massively corrupted form of capitalism, one that focused on OLIGOPOLISTIC trading (in lieu of real production/value-add). For nearly a century, this fostered (in various forms) a culture of banal private sector rent-seeking.
5/ The tsunami of capital formation that followed, accrued to a minority segment of the population that used their growing power and influence to reinforce and perpetuate the regulatory capture; after all protecting one's commercial position is logical.
6/ Gulf private sectors chose to follow two state-sanctioned rentier business models: 1) an end-point of sale for consumer goods (wakala) 2) arbitraging & monopolising the price of labour (kafala) A consequence of this was a chronic lack of innovation and superficial development.
7/ Reinforcing the symbiotic arrangement, the state was (and largely continues to be) the source of almost all end demand. Even household consumption was ultimately a function of state salaries, distributed through an ever-expanding and mollifying bureaucracy.
8/ A captive source of demand and a protected local market thus failed to create incentives for the private sector to be dynamic or globally competitive. This meant that for decades, economic activity never became "productive" in an innovative or knowledge-building sense.
9/ This evidence supports the late Hisham Sharabi's theory of Neopatriarchy (h/t @Layla_AlAmmar). Private sectors, far from developing an intellectual capacity and independence, instead expanded under new protective legislation as mere extensions of the patronage system.
10/ As a result, Gulf private sectors chronically LACK a capacity to critically analyse and solve problems. Instead, solutions are imported and sold, skirting the acquisition of knowledge implicit in the solutions purveyed. This helped perpetuate the status quo for decades.
11/ Today we're confronted with a private sector that is narrow (trading-focused) and shallow (lacking deep participation in the value chain). Yet the sector's role in the political economy is being forced to change, in part, as the expectant provider of employment to citizens.
12/ As local markets are liberalised, protections removed and aggressive quotas to hire nationals are enforced, I envisage challenging times for many traditional Gulf businesses that fail to radically re-invent themselves.

2023.06.07 09:31 thelabermachine USF Email Job Scam
Hello everyone. I almost fell for an email scam from a "Dr Katherine Baker" representing a philanthropic foundation. What got me was that they used a canvas email and it appeared almost like a research opportunity. She claimed to be part of Nemours foundation and I realized the scam when she asked for my address, phone, and pictures of my ID (big no-no obviously). Watch out for red flags like a hotmail email, demands for 100 percent loyalty, and if they offer a salary that is too good to be true. Have you all seen similar email scams? Be careful out there.

2023.06.07 09:20 Intelligent_Shower96 Just a few thoughts on Free Headphones, Kevin Love, and Russell Westbrook
Is it truly possible to get technology for free? yes if you count free headphones that airlines will be giving to you during flights, such as when you go to japan, however, you do need to be going on a flight to get said free headphones. So are they really free? Or are they part of the price of the flight, you tell me. Further going onto this tangent, should we live in a world were you can reject the free niceties (woah that’s actually a word) that come with paid goods and services. For example you could have a cheaper flight by a couple bucks if you chose to omit services like the free food, drink and headphones. Omitting this objects would make this cheaper, yes, but it also degrades the experience at the same time which really does take away from the overall experience subconsciously which negatively impacts the image of the service provider. Is anything really free? Someone has to pay, unless it has negative value such as NBA players like Russell Westbrook and Kevin Love, however in the case of Kevin Love it was more negative value because of his position since the 2022-23 Cleveland Cavaliers have lots of size and no spots in their rotation for a powerforward/center, such as Kevin Love and the fit was not good. Also love had quite a large contract. When he was boughtout and signed by the miami heat, he immediately became a positive asset because they needed depth at centepower forward and he provided that while also being a stretch 4/5 . now you may be asking, anonymous slide writer, why are you bringing up kevin love in this very illogical tangent about value and free stuff. Well, kevin love was perceived as having negative value, even less than free, but the Miami Heat’s 2023 finals run has proven that something seen as negative, can be actually positive so in this way, nothing is ever really free. Ergo, Russell Westbrook, he had lots of good moments but also negative moments and in a way, can be seen as a neutral asert, henceforth could be interpreted as something completely free. However following the three way trade involving numerous 2nd round picks and the Los Angeles Lakers, 17 time NBA champion title owning and arugblety the greatest sports franchise ever,’s first round pick, russell westbrook, mike conley, and a few other players, westbrook eventually was bout out demonstrating his positive value on the clippers. In conclusion nothing can be truly free, not even headphones that you get for “free” when you take a flight as demonstrated by the 2022 - 23 NBA season and by look introspectively on the fundamental factors of life itself.
Now, let's embark on a journey of ungraspable matters, twisting in a whirlwind of confusion, a chaos theory applied to existential reasoning. An outburst of thoughts, notions like that of a jelly donut that's not just a jelly donut, but a metaphor for life's sweetness, filled with complexity. What, then, of the jelly donut? A sugary coating concealing a dense, rich center, are we not the same in our inherent complexities? The sweetness is free to enjoy, but does the caloric price not weigh heavily on us, or perhaps, literally on our waistlines?
Pondering these cerebral curiosities, one stumbles upon a peculiar parallel. An insect, a harmless fly for instance, exists in the universe with an exquisite freedom to buzz around. Yet, it is constrained within an ecosystem, its survival dictated by nature's codes, its buzzing limited by its lifespan. Is the fly, therefore, truly free? Or is it akin to our supposedly 'free' headphones on a flight?
Perhaps, these free buzzing flies and free airline headphones serve as paradoxes, reminding us of the nuanced meaning of 'freedom.' It’s like the tuna sandwich that you get at the deli. It’s marked with a price, of course, but who accounts for the unseen price of the fish's life, the baker’s toil for the bread, or the deli owner's rent?
Now, imagine the tuna sandwich morphing into a triple double by LeBron James, dunking into the net, scoring points in a league far detached from the deli, yet strangely, tightly knit to the fabric of our economic existence. Now you might be thinking, "Whoa, why a sandwich turning into a basketball player?" Well, isn't that the beauty of it all? An unexpected twist, a surprising turn of events, the sheer randomness, much like the perceived value of an NBA player that fluctuates based on the team's needs. It's an abstract tuna sandwich dunking paradox. A three-pointer, a slam dunk, a trade, are they not priced transactions, devoid of any element of 'free?'
Forsooth, the free headphones are akin to Russell Westbrook, Kevin Love, and indeed every one of us - seemingly free yet entangled in a web of relationships, constraints, and perceptions. The flight journey, then, can be equated to life, each passenger akin to an NBA player being traded around, their value re-assessed based on their new surroundings.
As this absurdly philosophical journey comes full circle, we arrive back at the premise - the notion of the free headphones. They, like the NBA players, carry value, sometimes negative, sometimes positive, yet, they are never truly free. The headphones, despite being handed over at no extra cost, carry with them the weight of the flight fare, the societal expectations, and the operational costs. The passengers, in their oblivious acceptance of these 'free' amenities, embody the consumerist culture, accepting the facade of free but paying the price nonetheless.
So, dear reader, the next time you don an airline's free headphones, remember, they echo with the paradox of existence, the question of freedom, and the subtle economic interplay of our world. They are not merely devices to drown out the plane's engine hum but symbols of the confusing, contradictory, yet utterly fascinating spectacle we call life. And remember, as they say in the NBA, the ball is in your court, or should I say, the headphones are on your ears!

2023.06.07 09:17 gundhamapologist Where do the girls stand now? (SEASON 8)
so i’ve been struggling with insomnia lately and somehow i stumbled across gia’s page on instagram. for sentimental purposes (if that’s what you’d call it), i like to see how cast members are and where they stand after a show concludes. i noticed that a lot of the dancers from season 8 don’t follow each other or only follow a select few of their former teammates. i get that social media doesn’t really matter and this is NOT an assumption of any specific child’s character or comparing the closeness between dancers, but is there any potential cause for this i may have missed?
now that i’ve grown up i don’t really keep up with the fan base (which i was never heavily in), and last i checked everyone was on good terms and constantly featured in jordan matter videos together, or on abby’s channel, and even on their own personal channels, so this was really just surprising and spiked my curiosity. all dancers seem to be doing great for themselves though, which is great :)
i think the biggest gag was noticing how lily and ellie finally grew about. in my opinion, since the show portrayed and basically forced a rivalry between the two, once it wrapped up both parties did a bunch of collabs and videos together to beat those allegations. i feel like it put the girls in a situation where they felt like they HAD to maintain that friendship so nobody was attacked or perceived as a mean girl or bitter. i’m glad that they could finally step away from that phase (if that was the case).

now that i’ve grown up i don’t really keep up with the fan base (which i was never heavily in), and last i checked everyone was on good terms and constantly featured in jordan matter videos together, or on abby’s channel, and even on their own personal channels, so this was really just surprising and spiked my curiosity. all dancers seem to be doing great for themselves though, which is great :)

2023.06.07 08:58 AuSSie-HellCat Week 2: Nov 2023 - GEW: Riot & Unleashed
 | submitted by AuSSie-HellCat to HellCats2KUniverseV2 [link] [comments] GEW: RiotMatch 1 - Chad Gables US Title Open ChallengeAs Gable paces back and forth, the arena lights dim, and The Bullet Club's theme music begins to play. The crowd's reaction shifts from anticipation to a mix of boos and jeers as Jay White and The Gunns make their way to the ring, wearing self-assured smirks on their faces. The crowd's murmurs intensify as they await the reveal of Gable's challenger. The anticipation reaches its peak as a new face, JTG, walks out to join The Bullet Club. As the match begins, the crowd is on the edge of their seats, eager to see who will accept Gable's open challenge. Suddenly, chaos erupts at ringside as The Gunns launch a surprise attack on The Creed Brothers, drawing the attention of the referee. In the ring, the distraction allows another new member of The Bullet Club, Ricky Starks, to slide into the ring undetected. With a swift and brutal strike, Starks strikes Gable from behind, stunning the champion. This gives JTG the chance to hit his finisher on Chad Gable and pin him when the referee turns around. Winner: JTG by Pinfall (2 Stars) https://preview.redd.it/kd9hd299ij4b1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=9a987be930a8f54915ffe6176dba8b3bec395da2 Post Match Segment The Bullet Club stands tall in the ring, their new member, JTG, proudly holding the United States Championship. The crowd boos and jeers, expressing their frustration and disappointment as the camera fades out, leaving Gable lying alone in the ring, betrayed and stripped of his championship. Match 2 - Sami Zayn vs Wes Lee (Glory Qualifier) The match kicked off with an intense exchange of technical wrestling and high-flying maneuvers. Wes Lee showcased his lightning-fast speed and impressive aerial skills, dazzling the crowd with his acrobatic offense. However, Sami Zayn, known for his cunning tactics and unorthodox style, proved to be a formidable opponent. In a pivotal moment, Sami Zayn executed his signature "Helluva Kick" on Wes Lee, flooring his opponent and leaving the audience in awe. The referee counted the three, signaling Sami Zayn's hard-fought victory and his qualification for the Men's Glory Match. Winner: Sami Zayn by Pinfall (4 Stars) https://preview.redd.it/dfio5v3aij4b1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=53d3a3dbe425336b71752a04dcb76fad4ed56569 Backstage Interview Interviewer: Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with the self-proclaimed Switchblade, Jay White. Jay, tonight we have the opportunity to discuss your thoughts on Seth Rollins and his current reign as the GEW International Champion. What can you tell us about your perspective? Jay White: [Smirking] Oh, Seth Rollins, the so-called "Architect" of the GEW Universe. He thinks he's untouchable, doesn't he? Well, let me tell you something, my friend. Seth Rollins and his reign as champion are nothing more than a facade, a smoke and mirrors act that's about to come crashing down. Interviewer: Strong words, Jay. Care to elaborate on why you think Rollins' reign is not legitimate? Jay White: [Laughs mockingly] Where do I even begin? Rollins has had his moment in the sun, basking in the glory of being called a champion. But what has he truly accomplished? Who has he beaten to earn that title? I'll tell you—nothing and nobody of true significance. Interviewer: But Seth Rollins has been successful against several top competitors. He's defended his title against formidable opponents and has proven his worth in the ring. Jay White: [Leaning forward, intensifying his tone] Successful? Defending against formidable opponents? Please, spare me. Seth Rollins has been swimming in a sea of mediocrity. He's become comfortable, complacent, and it's time someone woke him up from his slumber. [Jay White suddenly becomes more aggressive, his eyes filled with intensity. He leaps from his chair, knocking it over and shoving the interviewer against the wall. The camera struggles to maintain focus as chaos ensues.] Jay White: [Breathing heavily] You want to talk about respect? Well, respect is something that has eluded Seth Rollins for far too long. And I'm going to show him what true disrespect feels like! [Jay White reaches into his pocket and pulls out a can of spray paint. He proceeds to vandalize the interview set, swiftly tagging "Bullet Club" on the backdrop before tossing the can aside. The room is filled with a mixture of shock and awe.] Jay White: [Smirking wickedly White grabs the camera brining it close to his face] This is just a taste of what's to come, Rollins. The Bullet Club is here to tear down your false empire, and I'm leading the charge. Brace yourself, because your reign is about to crumble, and I'll be the one holding the pieces. Match 3 - Indi Hartwell & Jacy Jane vs Sonya Deville & Mandy Rose (Glory Qualifier) The match was evenly contested, with both teams exchanging momentum and delivering impactful moves. Indi and Jacy showcased their athleticism, executing impressive high-flying maneuvers and hard-hitting strikes.

They viciously attack Bianca, catching her off guard.] Jaime Hayter: You thought you could just waltz in here and challenge our champion, huh? Well, think again! [Dakota Kai delivers a brutal kick to Bianca's midsection, causing her to double over in pain. They continue the assault, relentless in their attack.] Dakota Kai: Britt didn't need us to handle her business, but we're here to show you what happens when you step out of line. [Bianca, though battered, refuses to back down. With a surge of determination, she fights back, unleashing a flurry of punches and strikes, catching both Jaime Hayter and Dakota Kai off guard.] Bianca Belair: You want to play dirty? Well, I'm not one to back down from a fight! [Using her incredible strength and athleticism, Bianca tosses Jaime Hayter into a nearby equipment crate, causing a loud crash. She then delivers a powerful spinebuster to Dakota Kai, leaving her sprawled on the ground.] Bianca Belair: You two may be Britt Baker's lackeys, but I won't let you or anyone else stand in my way! Match 4 - Cody Rhodes vs Tyler Bate (Glory Qualifier) The match is an absolute masterpiece, showcasing the incredible athleticism and technical prowess of both Cody Rhodes and Tyler Bate. They push each other to their limits, executing breathtaking moves and near falls that keep the audience on the edge of their seats.

The once-beloved fan favorite revealed her true colors, turning heel and leaving Stark battered and vulnerable. The crowd watched in disbelief as Bayley's assault escalated, displaying a newfound ruthless aggression. It became apparent that a new, more sinister Bayley had emerged, willing to do whatever it took to regain her dominance and championship glory.

Lashley and Sheamus take advantage of the momentary distraction, ruthlessly attacking Bryan from all sides. https://preview.redd.it/28s21hyonj4b1.png?width=2560&format=png&auto=webp&s=04051a427ab707c213d8e23f24d45eed7fc54aea The crowd watches in shock as Okada reveals a wicked smirk, a betrayal that shatters the trust of the fans and his former partner. Okada grabs a microphone and steps back inside the ring, towering over Bryan, who struggles to regain his footing. Okada: (mockingly) Bryan Danielson, did you honestly think I was here to help you? I never had any intention of being your partner. You were a means to an end, a stepping stone on my path to greatness. The crowd boos loudly, their disappointment and disbelief palpable. Okada: (continuing) Last week, it was me who hired Lashley and Sheamus to beat you down. I wanted to ensure you were weakened for our match, to expose your vulnerabilities. I am the one true champion, Bryan, and now, the world will witness your downfall. Okada delivers a devastating Rainmaker clothesline to Bryan, leaving him motionless in the center of the ring. The crowd erupts into a chorus of boos, their adoration for Okada shattered by this callous act of betrayal. The scene fades out, leaving a bitter taste in the mouths of the fans, who will forever remember this night as the moment Okada turned his back on honor and friendship.

2023.06.07 08:55 SoftLightsFoundation Letter to Decision Makers
I have been writing to government officials, and I ended up with a useful summary of the situation surrounding LEDs. --------------------------
Dear Decision Maker,
LED visible radiation is a human health hazard. LEDs are not point sources of light, but rather emit a directed energy beam of spatially non-uniform light from a flat surface. The FDA failed to comply with the Congressional mandate to publish performance standards for LED products to ensure the comfort, health, and safety of the public. The FDA has failed to publish restrictions for peak luminance, spatial uniformity, inverse square law dispersion, spectral power distribution, and square wave flicker. LED visible radiation devices have been documented to cause seizures, migraines, panic attacks, eye pain, and eye injury, in addition to the health impacts caused by light pollution such as increased risk of thyroid, breast, and prostate cancer, obesity, heart disease, mood disorders, and early mortality. LED visible radiation creates discriminatory barriers that prevent equal access. Because of the documented hazards to human health and well being and lack of FDA regulation, there is no legal basis for using any LED product, and the sale, installation, or operation of an LED product creates a liability. LED lights are not energy efficient as compared to incandescent or HPS, as falsely claimed by the Department of Energy and the LED lighting industry. As per the DOE, "Energy efficiency is the use of less energy to perform the same task or produce the same result." Since LEDs emit an entirely different type of visible radiation and do not provide uniform illumination or produce the same result, LED light sources cannot be energy efficient as compared to point source emitters. LED products emit a hazardous, low-quality light, not an energy-efficient light. The Soft Lights Foundation has submitted multiple federal regulatory petitions to request compliance by federal agencies and to publish the required performance standards for LED products. June 12, 2022 - Petition to Food and Drug Administration to regulate LED products as required by the 1968 Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act. Docket Number: FDA-2022-P-1151 (https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2022-P-1151-0001). For details, contact Jeffrey Shuren, Director, FDA CDRH. ([[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])). May 29, 2023 - Petition to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to comply with 21 USC 360ii and liaison with the FDA to publish performance standards for LED vehicle headlights. (http://www.softlights.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/NHTSA-Petition-to-Collaborate-with-FDA.pdf) May 30, 2023 - Petition to Department of Energy to comply with 21 USC 360ii and liaison with the FDA to publish performance standards for LED General Service Lamps and LED streetlights. (http://www.softlights.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/DOE-Petition-to-Collaborate-with-FDA.pdf) June 5, 2023 - Petition to US Access Board to comply with 21 USC 360ii and liaison with the FDA to publish performance standards for LED products to ensure equal access for those who are neurologically intolerant of LED visible radiation. (https://www.softlights.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Access-Board-Petition-to-Collaborate-with-FDA-1.pdf) Please use this information to inform your decision making regarding LED products.

2023.06.07 08:55 Intelligent_Time_384 Kylie and Jordan
I was watching life of Kylie and I realize how much Kylie loved her even after what Jordan.Y’all opinion do y’all think will they ever rekindle ? Tbh I think the end of their friendship was Kylie codependency but also getting with Travis Scott. I think Kylie rushing into another relationship but expecting Jordan to be her emotional partner was too much for Jordan and tiresome especially playing third wheel to tyga and Kylie I don’t think she wanted to do the same thing again.
