How do you thrive in the shadow, substantial and arena-sized, of a group that has sold over 35 million albums? If you're Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park, the answer is: shine your own light. Shinoda is half the vocal firepower of the multi-platinum, Grammy-winning band Linkin Park, trading diaphragmatic diatribes with singer Chester Bennington and infusing the searing alternative rock with equally intense hip-hop. From album to album, Shinoda and his bandmates have garnered a reputation based on their appetite for striking new ground. On his first outing alone, Shinoda is ready to show people that he is still hungry. Shinoda's rap roots have always had to share space with other elementsuntil now. Fort Minor is a wholly unique, unadulterated hip hop album, owing as much to Shinoda's polished lyricism as his musical adeptness. The variety of themes, styles, and moods he creates make this "side project" likely to do much more than simply satisfy existing LP fans; it threatens to expose Shinoda as a rap devotee who is as at home in hip-hop as he is in the cross-genre hybrid of Linkin Park. The Rising Tied, the much-anticipated debut of Shinoda's Fort Minor, will be released by Machine Shop Recordings/Warner Bros., in Fall 2005. Executive Produced by Jay-Z (who collaborated with Linkin Park on 2004's Collision Course), The Rising Tied is produced and mixed by Shinoda, who wrote every track, played nearly every instrument and "slaved over every detail." While Shinoda chose the name Fort Minor to reflect the dynamic between opposites — something big and strong vs. something small and slight (or musically dark) — the name of the album is also a play on words. All of the guest artists on The Rising Tied, says Shinoda, are coming up together in the music world. Among them are Machine Shop acts Styles of Beyond and Holly Brook, as well as Common, John Legend, Kenna and Black Thought (of The Roots), among others. While remaining an essential shard in the mosaic of Linkin Park, the desire to create songs that resonated with his youth as a hip-hop producer and MC led Shinoda to write, then record, a progression of hip-hop-rooted songs. As they began to coalesce into an album bearing Shinoda's solo imprimatur, he also felt it was essential to keep it "organic," making his own samples and breakbeats with live instruments, and avoiding sequenced keyboards. The Rising Tied, channeling some of the signature dynamics and frustration of Linkin Park, reveals a more personal range of themes slagged inside a distinctly hip-hop crucible. Not to say that it's an entirely homogenized collection. On the first single, "Believe Me," excerpts from a decaying relationship tremble over a seismic breakbeat, infused with Latin percussion and a cello-bass line that reflects Shinoda's love of classic rock. "High Road," bouncing to Billy Joel-like piano progressions, adopts a humorous tone even as it gives the finger to someone who once told him to "stick to keyboards, don't rap." More funny business comes into play in "Remember the Name," with Shinoda transforming a traditional rapper's brag into a subtler call for respect, all done in the third-person. What's the formula for success? Shinoda answers, in a walking tempo, "This is 10% luck, 20% skill, 15% concentrated power of will, 5% pleasure, 50% pain, and 100% reason to remember the name." Another song that shifts traditional perspectives is "Where'd You Go?," a lament for those on the road as felt through the experience of those left behind. Shinoda warns, "'Where'd You Go' makes my wife cry every time she hears it." On "Right Now," inspired by Robert Altman's iconoclastic film Short Cuts, Shinoda, Black Thought, and S.O.B. offer a hodgepodge of scenes, invoked to the rhythm of a chopped-up piano loop, which stitch together disparate lives during any given moment. Home-town pride inspires Shinoda's unexpected and highly personalized picture of Los Angeles in the candid "Back Home," while sarcasm drives the irresponsible zeitgeist of "Petrified," a precarious anthem built on swagger, fear, and the heaviest beat since Ice Cube's "Wicked." Clearly, the most unique song of this album — or any album, for that matter — is a rap-flavored recollection of the U.S. internment of Japanese citizens during World War II. "Kenji," featuring the voices of Shinoda's aunt and father who were interned in the U.S. during the 1940s, paints a bleak picture of those who lost everything after being thrown into what were known then, euphemistically, as "relocation camps." Shinoda explains, "I went to the Japanese-American National Museum in L.A. last year, and it reminded me of all the stories my family had told me, how they were put into internment camps here in the U.S., not because they had done anything wrong, but simply because they fit a profile. I had to write a song about it." With Fort Minor and The Rising Tied, Shinoda appreciated the chance to tackle a new theme outside the normal subject matter of Linkin Park. Tackling big goals seems to be Shinoda's modus operandi. Notwithstanding an expectation to pursue a career in the visual arts, Mike decided instead to become a musician while working toward his B.A. in Illustration from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Having already taken ten years of piano lessons, he first began to work as a hip-hop MC and producer. In the mid-1990s Shinoda joined with guitarist Brad Delson, turntablist Joseph Hahn, drummer Rob Bourdon, bassist Phoenix and vocalist Chester Bennington to form Linkin Park. The band's debut, Hybrid Theory, became the worldwide ..1-selling album of 2001, earning a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance ("Crawling") and various other awards. Its subsequent albums — Reanimation, Meteora and Live in Texas — have continued to widen the band's fan base and critical acclaim; all together the catalogue has sold upwards of 35 million albums. On July 2 in Philadelphia, Linkin Park performed as part of the African aid/debt relief effort Live 8, to a live audience estimated at nearly one million people. Mike Shinoda's personal philanthropic efforts are growing as well. In the past five years, he has started a scholarship at his alma mater and been involved in groups such as United Way, AIDS Project L.A., Densho, the Japanese American National Museum, Arthritis Foundation and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Last year, Linkin Park launched Music For Relief, an organization to aid the rebuilding of Southeast Asia; the band played a sold-out show in Los Angeles to support the cause, raising over $2 million for relief efforts.

I'm just a writer.. maybe something more, so before you flow, and know not but one, I'l soar, thats me, in my language, repeating endless lines of this dreary night, where inside I hold a fight, that might explode into rage on this page, and I look so Pretrified.. I may have lied... and then I sighed, but before then, I used to be an empty bottle, laying on that side walk, where I do not but talk, and stalk my prey, my senses do more than identify that lonely chalk on that wall, nothing but graffiti, instead of love in this city of juveniles, of lonesome with the human next to me I move so quickly, I am not safe, but lost in this world of me and that wandering ghost, where in my eyes, I see a host for that 8 o'clock show down Fort's Street, in this Minor occassion, I speak no lie with this, I bide time to say that this was that kid from that one city under neon skies..... My life goes on with no limit to the ground I seek shelter under, and I have no remorse for this word of thought, this was Kid Oz-E..... young and dumb, with only a bad memory in him.. to this neighborhood, to the ones I love, to the ones I hate, to the ones I can't stand, to the ones I know..................... this is me ALONE ♥ Jan 10, 2006 08:32 PM i'm so glad you decided to put Where'd you go on here......it's a great song off your record, and i love your new album, it honestly has to be one of the best albums i heard in a while.

Saturday, 19. November 2005, 07:42:56 community , css , MyOpera I wrote 5 (IMHO) logical parts of modifying any Opera community space to meet your needs and desires... It is my personal recommendation that you read this parts one by one, and not to jump from one to another, at least if you are not experienced with CSS and you are reading it for the first time. In the first parts all the elements are explained, documented and 4 examples are added (code + screenshots), and in later parts you will only be directed to specific parts of main.css for your template to search and modify it yourself since all elements you might want to change have been briefly explained before. If you like this spotlight it Part 1: Header part of your My.Opera Space Title text, Subtitle text, Header image and menu background [ Link ] Part 2: Blog on My.Opera Post title, Sticky post mark, Post date and tags [ Link ] Part 3: Sidebar on My.Opera Blog Sidebar width, Sidebar captions, Calendar, Album slideshow, Coundowns [ Link ] Part 4: Other My.Opera Pages Profile, Friends, Links [ Link ] Part 5: Few last bits and pieces Footer, Page background and wraps on each side, Top menu and Opera community link, Links on any page, Comments, Quick profile, Tags [ Link ] Updates: - You really want to check these Headers: - 12/02/2005 - 10 Headers - Farm - dark colors - Link - 12/02/2005 - 10 Headers - Natural - dark colors - Link - 12/02/2005 - 10 Headers - Sport - dark colors - Link - 12/01/2005 - 10 Headers - Children - dark colors - Link - 12/01/2005 - 10 Headers - Exotic nature - dark colors - Link - 12/01/2005 - 10 Headers - Oceans and seas - dark colors - Link - 12/01/2005 - 10 Headers - Mixed elements - Dark colors [2] - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Mixed elements - Dark colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 6 Headers - Rabbit related - Light colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Winter related - Light colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Sunset related - Dark colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Food related - Mixed colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Cat related - Mixed colors - Link - 11/30/2005 - 10 Headers - Dog related - Mixed colors - Link - 11/29/2005 - 10 Headers - 10 Dark Colors - Plain but nice - Link - 11/29/2005 - 10 Headers - 10 Colors - Plain but nice - Link - 11/29/2005 - 10 Headers - mixed collection - check it out - Link - 11/29/2005 - 5 Headers for those who love wildlife - dark headers - Link - 11/29/2005 - 5 Headers for those who love babies - light headers - Link - 11/29/2005 - 5 Headers for those who like birds - dark headers - Link - 11/28/2005 - 6 Headers for those who like dark styles - Link - 11/28/2005 - 6 Headers for those who like light - natural styles - Link Menu images: - 12/03/2005 - 6 Light colors - yellow - blue - pink - orange - green - rose - Link - 12/03/2005 - 7 Dark colors - red - blue - orange - green - violet - rose - etc Link Opera Community Icon: - 12/04/2005 - 18 transparent icons - Link Others contribution - 12/25/2005 - 36 headers by Joni Mueller - Link People who made heavy modifications to their blogs: Scipio - http://my.opera.com/scipio/ Jere Purmonen - http://my.opera.com/Jere/ trollop - http://my.opera.com/trollop/ Post-Scriptum This post, and this list will be updated with interesting ideas, possibly interesting font / color / graphics combinations for your personal space, so keep checking it Ivan Minic :: http://www.Burek.co.yu/ :: http://forum.Burek.co.yu/ Syndication: RSS | Atom Write a comment You must be logged in to write a comment.

October 2005, 09:42:07 About blog , community , opera I hope you don't mind few minutes, but I would just like to clear things up.. I'm a guy from a country that has ~ 150-200k internet users in total, from which probably 10% know more than to click "send and receve" in their mail client, and in this kind of envoirment I have managed to create internet forum (and we all know how forums are inpopular with "normal people") that has 65k users and 15-20k unique visits daily, without spending a penny on commercials (I probably would if I had any... here average salary is ~200$ so even paying for a dedicated server is a pain in the.... ) So... I'm not a person you should ask about making a milions, but I do know a thing or two about promotion, especially the good old guerilla way Just few small fast facts... I managed to persuade people to change from their "native" browser to Opera in quite a scale... I've been using it since 7.0 as my only browser, but have tried it before... Just to compare... Stats from last year on my forum show that 1.2% of users used Opera as their browser, today that number is about 8-11% from month to month I'm proud Though Firefox is still in front with ~15% Enough about me ... I love Opera and use it every day. I personaly find it the second most useful thing there is (after Google and before ICQ which I use since 98). The point of this qroup and this blog is not to say that Opera Browser or Opera Community is bad, it is just my way of expressing ideas how to make it better.. If you like them, I'm glad, if not, feel free to post better idea.. I'm a guy that spends approx 15-18h online daily, so my wishes and suggestions might not be suggestion that " average Joe " would make, but if anyone actually find this usefull among Opera Developers, feel free do implement or contact me to get detailed info about my thoughts... I'm writing this because in past I had few misunderstandings with people because of my me-tarzan-you-jane english.

January 2006, 22:47:53 myopera , opera , suggestion Some topic not too long ago made me think about possible ways of abusing my.opera space... Lets talk just about bandwith abuse at this moment, comment and account spam is another thing. Now as far as I know you can hotlink almost anything hosted on my.opera personal space.. and that means that you can send a link to a friend but that also means that you can put a clip or a big zip or simply hires image couple of MB big and hotlink it from any other page and simply parasite from Opera's resources... and ok.. that is fine until it is resonable amout of resources... but there is 300 MB of space and ways of abuse are unlimited... Just few examples: 1. Upload 10 MB clip (funny video), hotlink it from an outside blog, submit it to few fun portals and you will have lets say 50 000 or 100 000 views of that video a day. That means 1 TB of bandwith would be killed in a day... or link usage would be (1 000 000 x 8 / 86400) ~ 9.23 Mbit per second.. 2. Upload 1.5 MB HiRes scan of some magazine photo.. upload 6 pics as an example of a photo shoot ... 9 MB total make a post on your forum or blog, submit it to couple of portals and blogs.. if approved that would get you approrx 20 000 - 30 000 unique visits = 270 GB daily or 3.125 Mbit per second. 3. Upload 25 MB zip / rar ... lets say demo album or legal or illegal music.. post it on few warez portals and it will get you 20 000 - 30 000 unique visits a day ... to cut the crap another 750 GB of bandwith or 8.68 Mbit. etc Ok.. some of these stuff are legal usage of my.opera space, some are not.. still.. all are possible to qet out with... I don't know how big link my.opera's servers have and what kind of abuse they can handle (from what I've seen lately, they can't handle normal everyday use) but these stuff are something you should try fighting against. For example.. you can upload a huge zip (tested yesteday) full of images for your photo album, than manually collect links and hotlink them from other place... why not try to make some sort of hotlink protection in folders album uses for storing files at least? I know there could be issues with refferer since some browsers including opera can block it and some firewalls can do it too.. but there must be a way of making it work... Also.. why not implementing page with capcha for downloading files bigger than 1 MB from my.opera files... also maybe put on that page "report illegal content" or something like that... hotlinking videos results as a redirect to a page where that video can be viewed but from my.opera.com not some other page... and so on... Anyhow this is a very serious thing, and I really believe that it should be on a to-do list for my.opera dev's To post your comments visit: http://my.opera.com/community/forums/topic.dml?id=119508 Syndication: RSS | Atom Write a comment You must be logged in to write a comment.

January 2006, 17:12:11 logo , MyOpera , opera I had to write this... This topic was the thing that made me start posting ( my first post ) on My.Opera forums and the thing that was lately talked about a lot ( main topic )... I'll try to sublime other's impressions and write my own... I took these 5 logos in comparison simply because they represent the most popular 5 browsers... Depending on country and type of website they change their orded, but all in all they pretty much always, everywhere hit top 5 spots. First ... non-troppo's critique Second ... dantist's quick fix Third ... EivindFS retouch Ok... now my point of view.... Sometime ago I play around with "the big O" so I made simple crystal retouch... People liked it pretty much.... Wallpaper: So.. then some of people asked if I could make clean white O from that... and so I did: Anyhow... This "logo" Isn't anything special, it is just a retouch of current style and I personally believe that new logo and identity should be changed.... How and why... take a look at this (just examples): We all know that the most important market in the IT world is US... And when you have (at least) 2 such giants as "the big O" there, how do you expect someone fight with them? Also.. 95% internet users are noobs... Does anyone actually think that big red roman style O is a real way of suggesting users "this is internet browser, click it!". I made a small test the other day on one computer (usually only used for internet by complete begginers)... I deleted all icons on desktop and installed Netscape 8, Firefox 1.5 and Opera 8... I counted how many people clicked on each of them to start using their internet.. 15 people... - 10 clicked Firefox. - 4 clicked Netscape. - 1 clicked Opera. Why did that one click on Opera... I asked him... He has Symbian phone with Opera preinstalled... And.. we are talking about "survey" in a country where lets say 5-7% people use Opera as their browser, and... that my friends.. is quite a lot. I asked some who clicked on FF and NN and these are some of their anwsers... FF : The Icon is so cool and shiny and all that.. FF : The Globe suggested to me that I should try that one... FF : I've heard / read about it... NN : The icon looked like N is wathing on earth... seemed logical... NN : My friend has email @netscape.net Ok... now let me show you logos that were submited lately as users suggestion: User suggested logos: Prodea: Opera.png rethompson808: opera_07.blue2.png PKO: Opera_03.png marcoledingue: opera-mask.png chris2000: logo-concepts.gif CaFFeinE: opera_speedy.png : opera_flames.png Willnight: Opera_id1-1.jpg idbeu: 3.gif momo2: opera_logo_redesigned.png trollop: OperaHumming-1.png : OperaHumming-2.png Jairo Boudewyn Opera 8 Icons 2.0 - [ Here ] Opera 8 Icons - [ Here ] Opera Morph Icons - [ Here ] Opera Browser 7.5 Icon 2.0 - [ Here ] Opera 7 - Generic Opera - [ Here ] Conclusion? Opera needs a new logo... A nice sleek, modern and easy to remember logo that will be related to internet, network and browsing. One logo suggested is IMHO very nice.. Opera Morph Icons - [ Here ] I think this kind of look is something Opera should coinsider... Maybe not exactly that logo, that color scheme (although red white and blue are so well together and are used in may flags around the world and so...)... What it should be .. we will see Update: + Opera logo as I see it. [Mockup] + Step 2 Syndication: RSS | Atom Write a comment You must be logged in to write a comment.
