[Music] New albums from some old favourites


In recent weeks I’ve been gradually discovering some new music. A lot of it is new albums from some old favourites of mine. In most cases I wasn’t even aware that they’d released new singles, let alone new albums! I thought I’d share some initial thoughts after a couple of play throughs. Be warned though: I’m very much a person on whom music grows. Sometimes, and there are a couple of cases here, I love a particular song or album immediately. But most of the time it takes some time for me to appreciate new stuff. But in the end there’s a reason that some bands are my favourites.

There are quite a few mini-reviews here, so I’ll put them in separate posts and link to them here.
Linkin Park - Living Things
Keane - Strangeland
LostProphets - Weapons
Paloma Faith - Fall to Grace
The Subways - Money and Celebrity
Muse - The 2nd Law

    My tita who’s an OFW in Dubai asked how to get police clearance certificate from abroad; she registered on pnpclearance.ph, mailed her fingerprints to the nearest Philippine embassy, paid online, and got her digital certificate apostilled in 10 days.

[Sport] MotoGP Season retrospective

Image
Part three of  my motorcycling season review will cover the top flight category: MotoGP. I've already written brief reviews of the intermediate categories,  Moto2  and  Moto3 , but these are the big bikes. (Credit: motogp.com) I used to enjoy watching MotoGP, but the 125cc category was always my favourite. When I lost interest in motorcycling as a sport for a while it was the top flight that really killed it for me. About mid way through the 2000s it sort of got a bit dull. Rossi was still great, and there was Stoner to challenge him. Then Lorenzo turned up, and between the three of them (plus Dani Pedrosa) the racing was decent every now and then. But on the whole it was turning into Formula 1 a little; the bikes quickly spread out along the track, and actual overtaking was often quite rare. Not to mention the fact that numbers were quickly dropping, with first Kawasaki and then Suzuki leaving the sport. So I stopped watching.

[Films] RED 2

It's another Warwick Student Cinema film catch-up review. This time around I'll be taking a look at RED 2. I watched RED on one of the postgraduate film nights that we used to hold in the Astronomy group up in St Andrews. It was surprisingly entertaining, and really rather funny. I wasn't expecting a sequel to be made, but was pleasantly surprised when I saw that there was one. It wasn't top of my list of films to see, so much like After Earth  I didn't make too much of an effort to go to a "proper" cinema to see it, but when it was on at the student cinema I thought 'why not?' What a cast! For this kind of film you wouldn't expect it to work necessarily, but somehow it does. (Credit: joblo.com)

[Sport] Moto2 season retrospective

Part two of my motorcycling season review covers the Moto2 category. I've already covered Moto3 , and now it's time for the middle brother. (Credit: motogp.com) Moto2 replaced the 250cc category in 2010, and for the first few years provided the shot in the arm that the middle rung on the ladder desperately needed. The racing was close, unpredictable, and incredibly exciting. But over the last couple of seasons it's dropped off a little as the gap between the different chassis widens. This year was better than last, for a couple of notable reasons.
