The first artist being represented on the newly created Big Machine Records/ John Varvatos Records is California-based rock band badflower. “Scott and I are extremely passionate about the future of rock music! Having the opportunity to partner with the BMLG team is the perfect match and timing to find the next rock and roll rebels. We are looking for artists with passion, angst and a soul, and those that have a voice to be heard during these troubled times. People say rock is dead… we say, ‘Long Live Rock!” added Varvatos. Combining our two brands together will help us achieve our goal in finding and enabling the next great rock artists.” ![]() When I discovered that he was more than just a fan, and has a true eye and ear for rock talent, I was blown away. “John and I immediately connected with our outrageous love for rock music. “The cultural fashion of John Varvatos has always been a powerful rock and roll brand and one I’ve aspired to be a part of,” said Borchetta. Cheap Trick went on to play a 35-year anniversary show celebrating At Budokan at John Varvatos Bowery location which is where the two entrepreneurs’ paths crossed once again. Borchetta had just begun managing Cheap Trick and signed them to his Big Machine Records imprint. ![]() The two met over five years ago at an Aerosmith concert where Cheap Trick was opening. Music runs through the veins of both Borchetta and Varvatos. ![]() 7/14/2023 0 Comments Kant noumena and phenomena![]() ![]() The Noumenon's original meaning of "that which is thought" is not compatible with the "thing–in–itself", which signifies things as they exist apart from being images in the mind of an observer. As the aesthetic and analytic are enacted organization of phenomena becomes possible. But Kant who, in an unwarrantable manner, entirely neglected the thing for the expression of which those words phenomena and noumena had already been taken, now takes possession of the words, as if they were still unclaimed, in order to denote by them his things-in-themselves and his phenomena." The relation between Aesthetic and analytic Kant believed knowledge required sense experience and concepts. (See Sextus Empiricus, Outlines of Pyrrhonism, Book I, Chapter 13, ' What is thought (noumena) is opposed to what appears or is perceived (phenomena).' ) This contrast and utter disproportion greatly occupied these philosophers in the philosophemes of the Eleatics, in Plato's doctrine of the Ideas, in the dialectic of the Megarics, and later the scholastics in the dispute between nominalism and realism, whose seed, so late in developing, was already contained in the opposite mental tendencies of Plato and Aristotle. "But it was just this difference between abstract knowledge and knowledge of perception, entirely overlooked by Kant, which the ancient philosophers denoted by noumena and phenomena. According to Kant, next to nothing can be know about the noumena except for its existence, and that is primarily a question of definition i.e. ![]() He explained in " Criticism of the Kantian Philosophy", which first appeared as an appendix to The World as Will and Representation: Schopenhauer claimed that Kant used the word incorrectly. In Kantian philosophy the unknowable noumenon is often linked to the unknowable " thing-in-itself" ( Ding an sich, which could also be rendered as "thing-as-such" or "thing per se"), although how to characterize the nature of the relationship is a question yet open to some controversy. According to Kant, next to nothing can be know about the noumena except for its existence, and that is primarily a question of definition i.e. Much of modern philosophy has generally been skeptical of the possibility of knowledge independent of the senses, and Immanuel Kant gave this point of view its classical version, saying that the noumenal world may exist, but it is completely unknowable to humans. ![]() In Platonic philosophy, the noumenal realm was equated with the world of ideas known to the philosophical mind, in contrast to the phenomenal realm, which was equated with the world of sensory reality, known to the uneducated mind. The term is generally used in contrast with, or in relation to " phenomenon", which refers to anything that appears to, or is an object of, the senses. The noumenon is a posited object or event that is known (if at all) without the use of the senses. ![]() 7/14/2023 0 Comments Everything zen massage![]() ![]() If you have any questions regarding the session or about the particular technique you are receiving, feel free to ask. Many people just close their eyes and completely relax, communicating if/when they need more or less pressure, another blanket, or anything else relevant to the session. The practitioner will either gently move you or tell you what is needed throughout the session (such as lifting your arm). During the massage, make yourself comfortable. Prior to the massage, feel free to ask the practitioner any questions about the technique or the upcoming session. We can discuss which methods may be most appropriate for you.

7/14/2023 0 Comments Cool o katana![]() ![]() But when I checked the blade afterwards, it was as if it had never happened - the edge was as keen and beautiful as when it arrived. ![]() On the popular TV show, Forged in Fire, splitting a coconut with a blade has broken or twisted many a blade. The clean cuts on the hard bamboo left not a mark on the blade.Īnd despite my inability to line up a decent cut on the coconut a couple of times, when I did finally hit it straight - it sliced it easily. Only the best Samurai swords can handle both ends of the cutting spectrum. From the video below you will get some idea of how easily they are cut - as too are pool noodles, a surprisingly challenging target that only the keenest swords will cut as they 'flop' away from anything that is less than crazy sharp.īut conversely, they were also tested on some aged, thick, hard and nasty bamboo - and finally, a coconut. Water filled bottles were cut without any effort at all. Only the best Samurai swords can handle both - and it takes a lot of skill to make a blade that can handle the light stuff and not chip or break on something more demanding. While a paper cutting test can only tell you so much, it was especially eye opening when compared with a different Katana priced closer to $300 that I was testing at the same time as these.īut the real proof of the pudding is in the cutting of light and not so light targets. The real reason they are the best Samurai swords in my opinion is their cutting ability and sheer quality of the blade. I call these the best Samurai swords not because they look amazing, handle extremely well and are - for what you get - incredible bang for the buck. Cutting Tests: The real reason why I call these the best Samurai Swords. It was a curious thing and made them feel somehow more alive and may well down to their exceptional handling. ![]() While most Katana sit flat when balanced on one finger, both of these would tilt upwards with the cutting edge facing the sky (better that than the other way, as I would have lost a finger!). Interestingly, when balancing the swords for the photos, I noticed a slightly odd phenomenon. Read on and decide for yourself if we have achieved this rather lofty goal.īalanced at 6" from the tsuba, it is not as fast as the Muramasa clone, but for such a long blade, is very, very easy to wield. The Project was called the Forge Direct Custom Katana. But for those who simply wanted just the best samurai swords under $1,000, in 2016, working in conjunction with my friend Chris Scoggin from Ronin Katana and the contacts we made with Master Smiths over the years, we created a project to finally be able to give a definitive answer to the question as to what where the best samurai swords around for under $1K. We created such swords ourselves as part of Project X - producing a range of traditionally laminated Katana starting at around $1,100. So for the next best thing? Apart from Citdel Swords in Cambodia, the next best Samurai swords would have to be those made by certified Master Smiths from the city of Longquan (the 'Dragon Well'), a city with over 2,600 years of blade making experience deep in the mountains of Zhejiang province and famous the world over for its swords. The attention to even the smallest detail is evident in the Japanese monozukuri work ethic, and their swords are in many ways a quest for perfection.īut not everyone can necessarily afford the average price of a Japanese Shinken of $5-8K (which is very much the basic entry level for genuine Nihonto). If price is no object, then it is easy to answer - Japanese made Shinken are the best Samurai swords money can buy. Until recently, my answer to this oft asked question was "it depends" - and with quite a few decent swords to choose from, there were few that truly stood out as the best of the best under this price point (and a few less than stellar examples too).

For dessert, we shared a classic Bananas Foster for two, prepared tableside. I opted for a 12-ounce prime New York strip steak with bearnaise sauce and bacon wrapped shrimp, baked potato and tempura green beans. For an entree, my wife a seven-ounce filet mignon with bearnaise sauce, mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. On our recent visit, my wife and I started with shrimp cocktail, a bowl of king crab and corn bisque, Maryland crab cakes and a Caesar salad with romaine lettuce, croutons, parmesan cheese and Caesar dressing. Eddie Merlot's, which is open from 5 to 8:30 Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 5 5 to 9:30 on Friday and Saturday and 2 to 8 on Sunday, also has locations in Burr Ridge and Warrenville in the Chicago suburbs and in Colorado, Indiana, Massachusetts, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. North Milwaukee Avenue, at Route 45, in Lincolnshire's Village Green, it is the only restaurant in the United States that serves Wagyu beef from the award-winning Tarpoly Creek Ranch in South Queensland, Australia. So why did it take us so long to discover Eddie Merlot's in Lincolnshire? It is a premium chain serving prime aged steaks and seafood with a lengthy wine list in plush surroundings. There are many outstanding steakhouses in the Chicago area. Waiter never came out to say anything like we did not forget you. I did ask to speak to the chef but he never came out. We waited 15-20 minutes and just got up to leave as the manager walked over to us when we got up to leave. They then put down dessert plates even though we had not ordered any. The manage was gracious and said no charge for the main courses. It is now 8:00PM with our 6:00 pm reservation. Redish orange and RAW almost to the outside. We gave it back and it then arrived all fixed to medium BUT when cutting into it, raw meat only with a bit of a char on the outside. My spouse cut into it and it was totally raw on the inside. The 6 oz filet (ordered medium) was a lone wolf in the middle of a large plate with nothing on it. 15 minutes later the rest of the meal arrived. The waiter(who we did not see in that time period brought the 2 chicken dishes and said the filet and salmon would be right out. Chicken came fairly warm to hot but acceptable after the hour. We ordered the grilled romaine and it was very good. Yes one hour with a half full restaurant. Seated on time and restaurant was about 50% full. In the past, we have been happy but this evening was just terrible. Review Indiana-grown Eddie Merlot's has Something the other Steakhouses don't: a strategy for luring the ladies.

Inspires by the original Yellow Spot, this single pot still whiskey has been matured for no less than 12 years in a combination of American Bourbon, Spanish sherry and Spanish Malaga casks. There was a blue spot, red spot and even a yellow spot, but the green spot emerged as their most popular whiskey and is one of the few “whiskey bonder brands” to have survived to modern day.
