Happy Tuesday morning, Columbus. I have filed exactly one lawsuit in my life. And yes, I won. I'm undefeated, baby. Here's how it went down. The year was 1986, I was 21 and had a lot more hair on my head. No, your honor, that comment about my hair has nothing to do with the case. I was simply stating a fact.

Singer Jon Bon Jovi launches his own rosé wine, joins likes of George Clooney, Drake
Singer Jon Bon Jovi has launched his own brand of rose wine 'Diving Into Hampton Water'.
The singer and his is son Jesse Bongiovi have teamed up with French winemaker Gerard Bertrand to launch their own brand of "pink juice" as the rocker likes to call it, reported Femalefirst.
"Creating this wine with Gerard was just as creative as collaborating with another songwriter, Gerard uses his talents and wine knowledge just like a gifted musician. And working with my son on this has been an amazing experience," Jon said.
"We'd tried rose from everywhere. But when we visited Gerard, we realised that there is an entire coastline in France that is producing some of the best-kept secrets on earth," Jesse added.
The 55-year-old singer decided to launch the brand after he spent time in the Hamptons with his family, enjoying a glass of wine, dubbed "Hampton Water" by his 23-year-old Jesse.
'Diving Into Hampton Water' will soon hit shelves.
Bon Jovi is not the only celeb to have their own liquor brand. Rapper Drake launched an aged Bourbon whiskey just like Matthew McConaughey's own brand Wild Turkey. Magic Mike star Channing Tatum has potato-based vodka called Born and Bred. Justin Timberlake's brand of tequila is called Sauza 901, while George Clooney's brand is Casamigos.
Van Halen frontman Sammy Hagar has his own brand of rum called Sammy's Beach Bar Rum.
Football star David Beckham has partnered with British entrepreneur Simon Fuller to develop single grain scotch Haig Club Scotch Whisky.

Uptick Newswire’s “Stock Day” Podcast Welcomes John Sprovieri, CEO of Auscrete Corporation for 2018 Operations with Everett Jolly
PHOENIX, Feb. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Auscrete Corporation* *(OTC:ASCK) ("the Company"), today announced 2018 operational expectations in an interview on Uptick Newswire’s “Stock Day” podcast with Everett Jolly.Auscrete Corporation produces environmentally conscious homes, using their own specialty hybrid building products that are encapsulated insulated specialty concrete-based wall and roof products that are both energy efficient and non-toxic. The company also designs and produces specialized equipment for their manufacturing process in-house, which provide the concrete molds used in the home construction process.
“There has been a notable increase in volume in the Auscrete stock lately,” said Sprovieri. “The company, which is making great strides forward in 2018, has already initiated a new exciting project in Washington, a state known for its dedication to “green” living.”
“We recently purchased – for cash – a new property in Goldendale, Washington,” Sprovieri noted. “Our high speed hydraulic casting beds, when complete, will be capable of creating enough panels to produce two homes a week.” Sprovieri said that two homes per week equate to one hundred per year which will give the company revenues of around $16 million per year.
“We are a long-term company,” Sprovieri continued. “We are really well positioned in this environment, the “green” trend is still in its infancy, so we look forward to what we will accomplish in the future.”

The Saddest Man In Penge: Insecure Men's Saul Adamczewski
Quaalude disco, children's choirs, and Cliff Richard...*Saul Adamczewski *stands out as one of the most pervasive and tilted creative forces to grace music in the 21st Century. Hailing from South-East London, the guitarist is best known for being the skeletal figure spinning spidery guitar lines in The Fat White Family. Recent times, however, have seen the outsider troubadour turn his hand to a few other projects.
Unforgettably, he first emerged as lead guitarist with The Fat Whites; probably the most divisive, but ultimately one of the most important guitar band of the decade. With perverted, deranged and vulgar lyrics bleated over the top of Gun Club-style rockabilly, the band have gone on to influence just about every young band operating in the capital today. And you can bet the bands that The Fat Whites haven’t influenced are seldom worth even hearing.
Since ‘Songs For Our Mothers’, the last Fat White Family album, came out, Saul’s been a driving force at the wheel of Clams Baker’s garage-sleaze five-piece Warmduscher, as well as being a prominent part-player on last year’s exceptional Moonlandingz album. This year, before the Fat White Family get rolling again, the project Insecure Men is born.
A collaboration between Saul and ex-schoolmate/Childhood frontman Ben Romans-Hopcraft, Insecure Men are a place where both artists could express emotions and make sounds not commonly associated with their parent bands. Their self-titled debut album comes out on Friday (February 23rd), sounding like the bizarro child of The Beach Boys, Ben Wallers’ work under his The Rebel moniker, and thrift store library music compilations.
Clash spoke to Saul about all things Insecure Men, Fat White Family and Cliff Richard to get to the bottom of one of 2018’s most anomalous debut albums.
- - -
- - -
*How are you feeling about the album?*
Good, I’m excited. It’s been done for a while now, so I’d kind of forgotten about it. Not forgotten about it, but stopped really listening to it. I’ve made another record with the Fat Whites in the meantime. The shows are going really well, and it’s been received okay.
*Is this the first album you and Ben have made together? How did it come about?*
It is. We just all happened to drink in the same pub, and we’d just be upstairs jamming and playing music. Ben was always there, Nathan was always there, I was always there. We didn’t wanna just play Childhood stuff, or Fat Whites stuff, so we just started playing new stuff.
*What were your primary influences for the album?*
I guess we listened to a lot of Denim, Go Kart Mozart, Lawrence and Felt kinda that stuff. But also we’re really into Joe Meek production, exotica, lounge records from the 50s, Martin Dennis and Arthur Lyman, and then a lot of children’s music and music made by kids in the sixties and stuff. I bought a lot of compilations that were that sort of thing.
That’s the kind of weird shit we listen to at home, but those are the influences.
- - -
Initially we were microdosing acid every day, which was helpful...
- - -
*You recorded the album with Sean Lennon, have you got any stories about that?*
I’ve got a few. What’s a good story to tell about that? I have loads of stories, but I don’t really wanna share them. I mean it was very fun, we had a laugh. It was a very good time. Initially we were microdosing acid every day, which was helpful. That was really good, I’ve never done that before. Like, doing a little microdose. You know? That was the most fun session we’ve ever had, we just sailed through it. Then it got harder, but making records is always like that when you’re putting in the little details at the end it’s painstaking because no one really knows what they’re doing.
At one point they flew in all the kids’ vocals that we recorded in London. They put this crazy reverb on it, and I didn’t know what it was. I was tripping and it sent me into this downward spiral. I thought: “I should never have made music in the first place,” I thought I had to give up and leave the studio. Really all they’d done was put some Michael Jackson 'Earth Song'-style reverb on the kids and it sounded fucking terrible.
*Can you tell me about the track 'Cliff Has Left The Building'?*
*The song itself is just something I was always whistling and humming, I didn’t have any moment of inspiration, or anything like that. Initially it was called ‘Elvis Has Left the Building’, but we changed it to be about Cliff Richard. It’s kind of like a dream I had, in which I was having an affair with Cliff Richard. It’s a hallucination about him - some of the lyrics won’t make any sense to anyone other than me.*?can>
I’m not trying to say I know anything about Cliff Richard doing anything. And he’s dodgy as well, Cliff. He’s definitely dodgy. Something’s going on there. I don’t know what, but something is.
- - -
- - -
*Who is ‘The Saddest Man In Penge’?*
That’s about me. I am the saddest man in Penge. Especially when I came up with that song. The saddest man in Penge, though, that could be anyone. Any man who lives in Penge has probably been the saddest man there at some point.
*I was listening to your album as I was going through Penge the other day…*
Did it make sense? Yeah, I really like that track. There’s something about Penge that I always associate with daytime television. My mum lives there, so when I’m at my mum’s house and she goes to work I just end up watching whatever shit’s on TV. The song’s got that kind of daytime TV vibe to it, which I was happy with. The place has that kind of feeling as well, it’s the beginning of the suburbs.
*What about 'Mekong Glitter'? That sounds to me like the most obvious single, or 'hit', from the album.*
The decisions that are being made about the songs that are coming out as singles is more the label than me. If it were up to me I’d make that a single. In fact, it’s probably up to me, but you just lose interests in things like that. But yeah, I’d rather plug the other stuff like ‘Cliff…’, ‘Ulster’ and that side of the record.
But ‘Mekong Glitter’ is just about Gary Glitter. The story of Gary. Gary’s story. I guess it’s written from his perspective. Some people might have a problem with that. It happened and he existed. But there’s no reason why we can’t explore that idea, if that’s what you do for a living; explore ideas.
- - -
There’s something about Penge that I always associate with daytime television...
- - -
*What about your ode to Gerry Adams, ‘Ulster’?*
'Ulster', that was a track that was supposed to go on [Fat White Family’s last album] 'Songs For Our Mothers'… but it just didn’t fit on that record at all because it was the opposite of that record, really. It was just going to be an instrumental, and then Lias wrote the words. It’s about growing up in small town Northern Ireland.
Him and Nathan grew up in Dungannon, or some place. I’ve been there, a small bungalow in the middle of nowhere, and it’s about growing in those places and being really alienated. They were real outsiders there. They were called things like “p*ki” and “n****r” at school because they were a bit Algerian.
Me and Lias talked about it, and we thought it would be funny to have a song called 'Ulster', but like you’re on a tropical beach.
*You’ve been a public advocate of the band Shame for a while, are there any other bands from that scene that you’re into?*
There’s a band called Peeping Drexels who are from Peckham. They sound like Shame, actually, but they sound a lot rough around the edges. I love Shame, they’re our little brothers. I love Shame, but I think there’s obviously someone behind the scenes that wants to push them to the mainstream and take them as far as you can go, you know? And to do that you have to clean it up, just a bit.
But yeah, Peeping Drexels. My mate Jason at Dropout Studios recorded a few demos with them the other day, and they sounded fucking great. I just past them on the street on their way to band practice. They’re like 18, and they’re fucking wicked.
- - -
I love Shame, they’re our little brothers...
- - -
*What other new bands are there that you're interested in?*
Have you heard [London band] Honkies yet?
*The Honkies? *
Yeah! I like their drummer. He’s in a few other bands, I can’t remember who. He’s in a few other bands and he’s got one giant arm.
*Lincoln? From the band Sorry… *
Yeah, Lincoln! I fucking love that guy, man. Whatever he does, I’m gonna say that’s my favourite thing. I don’t even know what he does, but whatever he does I’m gonna say that’s my favourite thing.
- - -
It’s sort of like a quaalude disco record...
- - -
*Finally, what plans do you have musically for the rest of the year?*
Obviously I’m gonna have to tour this Insecure Men record; I’ve got a couple of headline shows in London with that. I’m doing some shows in theatres and sat down places like that. Then I’ve got a Warmduscher record coming out, which I’m also gonna be touring and doing a bunch of English and European dates with. It’s just going back to Captain Beefheart and rock ‘n’ roll sorta stuff, which is a nice antidote to what I’m doing right now.
Then, we’re finishing up the recording of The Fat Whites’ third record, which is basically done. We’re just adding strings and stuff to it now, and children’s choirs. That’s the final touches, then it’s off to be mixed. I’m not gonna be part of the touring band, but I will be playing a few shows. I don’t wanna get - as they say - burned out. So I’m pretty fucking busy, it’s great.
*Can you tell me anything about the new Fat Whites record?*
Well I can tell you... Lots of it sounds like Boney M, or Wham!, but like, on quaaludes. It’s sort of like a quaalude disco record. That’s the best way I’ve been able to describe it. That’s all I can say.

Globecomm Joins Amazon Web Services Partner Network
*Highlights*· Globecomm establishes direct access to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Direct Connect at key datacenter locations.
· Customers in U.S. Government, media and entertainment, enterprise video and the Internet of Things (IoT) can interoperate cloud-based services with Globecomm’s global satellite and fiber network to reduce capital expenditure and ramp up networks and services faster.
· Globecomm's suite of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications run on AWS, accessible across both AWS and Globecomm's global network.
· Globecomm’s team in place to design, develop and deliver cloud-centric as well as hybrid architectures for end-to-end services and customer solutions.
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Feb. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Globecomm announced today that it has joined the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner Network (APN) as a Standard Technology Partner. This agreement will enable Globecomm to seamlessly interoperate its global satellite and fiber network with AWS’s storage, compute and cloud content delivery services. With multiple direct connections to AWS, Globecomm can provision customer content, work processes and resilient network connectivity into AWS. Customers already using AWS to support their processes can benefit from seamless access to Globecomm’s teleports, satellite capacity, fiber points of presence and cloud software applications running on AWS.
“We have been developing platforms and scalable customer solutions on AWS since late 2014,” said Globecomm CEO Jason Juranek. “Like many of our customers, we turned to AWS for cost-effective, secure hosting of our own applications and content. With this agreement, our customers can leverage our expertise in service design and delivery for both on-premise and cloud strategies while enjoying serious savings in implementation time and overall cost.”
Globecomm is currently expanding its existing global points-of-presence with AWS within the North America, Central Europe and Southeast Asia Regions. The company anticipates deploying hybrid cloud-satellite-fiber solutions for customers in media and entertainment, enterprise video and IoT. These hybrid solutions will reach beyond the edges of the network to remote facilities, ships, offshore platforms and vehicles in motion around the world.
"In the past," Mr. Juranek continued, "customers had to use traditional stacked hardware in their own data centers and then build their own teleport and operate the entire environment just to serve their markets. Between Globecomm's global fiber and teleport network, and the huge capabilities of AWS, they can develop solutions, create content and connect it globally without ever owning a single physical asset."

· Customers in U.S. Government, media and entertainment, enterprise video and the Internet of Things (IoT) can interoperate cloud-based services with Globecomm’s global satellite and fiber network to reduce capital expenditure and ramp up networks and services faster.
· Globecomm's suite of Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications run on AWS, accessible across both AWS and Globecomm's global network.
· Globecomm’s team in place to design, develop and deliver cloud-centric as well as hybrid architectures for end-to-end services and customer solutions.
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Feb. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Globecomm announced today that it has joined the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner Network (APN) as a Standard Technology Partner. This agreement will enable Globecomm to seamlessly interoperate its global satellite and fiber network with AWS’s storage, compute and cloud content delivery services. With multiple direct connections to AWS, Globecomm can provision customer content, work processes and resilient network connectivity into AWS. Customers already using AWS to support their processes can benefit from seamless access to Globecomm’s teleports, satellite capacity, fiber points of presence and cloud software applications running on AWS.
“We have been developing platforms and scalable customer solutions on AWS since late 2014,” said Globecomm CEO Jason Juranek. “Like many of our customers, we turned to AWS for cost-effective, secure hosting of our own applications and content. With this agreement, our customers can leverage our expertise in service design and delivery for both on-premise and cloud strategies while enjoying serious savings in implementation time and overall cost.”
Globecomm is currently expanding its existing global points-of-presence with AWS within the North America, Central Europe and Southeast Asia Regions. The company anticipates deploying hybrid cloud-satellite-fiber solutions for customers in media and entertainment, enterprise video and IoT. These hybrid solutions will reach beyond the edges of the network to remote facilities, ships, offshore platforms and vehicles in motion around the world.
"In the past," Mr. Juranek continued, "customers had to use traditional stacked hardware in their own data centers and then build their own teleport and operate the entire environment just to serve their markets. Between Globecomm's global fiber and teleport network, and the huge capabilities of AWS, they can develop solutions, create content and connect it globally without ever owning a single physical asset."

Xplore Rugged Tablet Chosen as Primary Computing Console for State-of-the-Art Thermal Validation System
AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xplore Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ:XPLR) today announced that it has received purchase orders totaling more than $2.4 million for Xplore F5m rugged tablet PCs from one of the largest manufacturers of advanced sensing technologies and innovative embedded measurement solutions in the United States. The OEM has chosen the clean-room approved F5m to serve as the dedicated computer console for its new advanced thermal validation system.“This OEM has long set the industry standards for validation technologies and is constantly looking for new ways to create value for its pharmaceutical and clean room customers,” said Tom Wilkinson, CEO of Xplore. “The removable rugged tablet console significantly improves the thermal validation system’s data handling and management capabilities without compromising compliance standards.”
The state-of-the-art system, which meets U.S. industry and regulatory (FDA/GAMP) requirements, is custom-designed for the calibration and traceability of incubators, freezers, autoclaves, dry heat sterilizers and stability chambers, among other applications. The portable and rugged Xplore F5m-based console will specifically be used for the programming, displaying, reporting and storage of validation system data, streamlining overall system operation for technicians.
“By standardizing on a single mobile tablet that offers a familiar user experience, our OEM customer enables technicians to focus on validation tasks rather than figuring out a new technology interface every few months or years. This saves the OEM’s customers both time and money,” Wilkinson continued. “The Xplore F5m’s proven reliability and constant connectivity is also a significant selling point. Users can rest assured that they will have access to the critical system information they need to make real-time decisions during clean room device maintenance and validation transactions.”
The highly scalable 10.4” Xplore F5m rugged tablet is capable of syncing with multiple validation system units to deliver high accuracy measurements, automated sensor calibration, a metro-style user interface and detailed reporting capabilities. The Windows® and Intel®-powered mobile computer is also pre-loaded with validation-specific software, a built-in camera and multiple I/O, including USB 3.0 and docking connections. It features a projective capacitive dual-touch Gorilla® Glass display, a top molded handle for a slip-free gripping, and a rubberized frame for shock dampening. The hardened water and dust-resistant (IP54) console is also C1D2/ATEX compliant for safe use in Hazardous Locations.
