"In a world of make-believe rock stars plopped in place by make-believe record companies who simply pretend they are doing the world a proper service, artists like Benjamin Winter stand alone in a brilliance so obvious that make-believers go blind and pretenders go deaf. Only those of us who are immune to the imitations can revel in music like this. Benjamin Winter is so intimate with the listener that, for a short time, they trade lives and souls with the listener all the better for the exchange. There's an overabundant supply of music in the world and too much of it gets in the way of music like this." - Dean Sciarra, ItsAboutMusic.com
Benjamin Winter, front man for the band Sisera Fell based out of San Diego, CA, has crossed to the platform of independent artist. Sisera Fell released three independent projects since 1998, the latest of which contained two songs ("Rise Up" and "What To Do") that garnered light-medium rotation from three major radio stations in San Diego and San Francisco.
Winter grew up near San Francisco and in 1994 went to Cal Poly in San Luis Obisbo, CA on a football scholarship and completed his education with Art and Music degrees. "I would have never gotten into a good school on studies. I only got to go to college because I could catch a football," he admits. "My band became the only career I cared to put time into after college and football was over."
Benjamin was invited in September 2003 to join a tour through the USA and Europe as a solo performer as well as musician for "Isaac Improv." This was his first tour without the band and rendered the decision to produce his first solo project. He was in Amersterdam, Holland throughout 2004 where he moved to be with his Dutch girlfriend, write and independently pre-produce his first solo effort titled "Amber Alley And After."
"Behind my garage in San Diego where I would work at night, there was a run down alley where the sky always took on an amber color because of the San Diego light and the late night fog. I would take breaks back there and think too much. Those nights started a time period that became a year on the road of touring and living in Amsterdam. These songs mark the reflections that became "Amber Alley And After. But actually more significantly...after."

BRAVIA ad shoot
As the BRAVIA bunnies make their way through the streets of NYC, they merge together and form a giant wave, which surges forward and crashes through the alleyways of the Big Apple. From the ripples a giant rabbit emerges, which rapidly grows to over 30 feet, towering over the amazed onlookers. The giant rabbit then dissolves into a cascade of brightly coloured Play-Doh cubes that dance to the Rolling Stones backing beat.... (Continue reading)

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 16, 2009 - What foods do you reach for when you're stressed out? Is it the vending machine convenience, or finding your way to the bottom of a Ben and Jerry's pint? Stress has emotional components, but it also has physical aspects that are sometimes overlooked. Stress can cause powerful food cravings, impact one's ability to focus and pave the way for serious chronic health conditions. It's possible to reverse the impact of stress on your health through simple nutritional and lifestyle changes. Recent research has shown that our genes only account for 3% in determining which health conditions we will manifest based on our genetic heritage. The other 97% is about what we eat and how we live.... (Continue reading)

Many IT departments are devoting large budgets to technologies that neither differentiate nor confer competitive advantage, according to Prof. Colin Coulson-Thomas, author of ‘The Knowledge Entrepreneur’. They simply adopt widely used processes and tools from SAP, Siebel and other suppliers. Coulson-Thomas believes: ‘Imitation and copying do not lead to market leadership. They do not create new intellectual capital. They may simply impose extra burdens on staff and add to operating costs.’
Not one of the companies visited helps its people to emulate the success of their highest performers. The investigation is the latest project in Prof. Coulson-Thomas’ continuing study of knowledge entrepreneurship which has explored how companies might better exploit corporate know-how, create new knowledge-based offerings, and use a new generation of support tools to transform performance in areas critical to corporate success.
Coulson-Thomas explains: ‘With the right tools people in key roles can be helped to operate like winners and superstars by building critical success factors for the activities concerned and approaches adopted by high performers into how they work. The key is to make it easy for people to understand complex issues and perform difficult tasks.’... (Continue reading)
