Jack White debuts 'Love Interruption' from upcoming solo album

On Monday afternoon, Jack White posted "Love Interruption," a new song from his forthcoming solo debut, "Blunderbuss," out April 24. "Love Interruption," which opens with some strumming and mellow woodwind touches, is a striking first song that shows off White's gift for tension, but without the full-throttle force of his work in the White Stripes or his latest stormy project with Alison Mosshart, the Dead Weather.

Tamron and Kenko bring third-party glass to the Micro Four Thirds bash

Tamron and Kenko bring third-party glass to the Micro Four Thirds bash
The fresh trend of Micro Four Thirds shooters is on the rise, thus it shouldn't come as a surprise that more glass-makers are jumping on the MFT bandwagon. Joining the likes of Panasonic, Olympus and Kodak as part of the Micro Four Thirds Group, is a trifecta of third-party lens manufacturers: Tamron, Kenko Tokina and ASTRODESIGN. Following closely behind rival Sigma, the newcomers are looking to make a dent in the four-thirds universe. Better late than never, right? There's still no sign of these optics being available for you to stack in your camera bag, but the news just came in, so it shouldn't be too long before you can get some extra glass for your shiny new GX1.

Full-time: Reading 1, Bristol City 0

JASON Roberts returned to the Championship to sink Bristol City and power Reading back into the play-off places.

Signed from Premier League Blackburn Rovers just 48 hours earlier, the former Bristol Rovers man proved the difference between these two sides in a hard-fought tussle at the Madejski Stadium.

Renewing an old rivalry with Robins captain Louis Carey, the 33-year-old striker had the last laugh when going down under pressure from the Bristolian to win a penalty 11 minutes into the second half.

Referee Pat Miller had no option but to point to the spot and then issue Carey with a straight red card. Roberts stepped up to take the penalty and, although David James saved his initial effort, he followed up to bundle in the winner and register only his second goal of the season.

City's 10 men pressed hard for an equaliser and it almost came when Albert Adomah sent a rising shot against the cross bar in the 66th minute.
Reading had an opportunity to double their lead in the closing moments when Tomasz Zywka was brought down by auxilliary left-back Stephen Pearson and referee Miller again pointed to the spot. But James made a tremendous fingertip save to push Jobi McAnuff's spot kick against the post and behind for a corner.

Encouraged by last weekend's 2-1 home victory over Doncaster, City picked up where they had left off by making the early running at the Madejski Stadium.

Restored to the starting line-up and determined to prove a point to Robins manager Derek McInnes, Ryan McGivern powered his way behind the Royals defence and delivered a telling cross towards Chris Wood. The striker sent his header into the ground and keeper Adam Federici had to make an acrobatic save to keep the home side on level terms.

Stephen Pearson was next to test Federici, the keeper going full-length to turn a speculative 20 yard shot behind, while Albert Adomah sent a cross-***-shot skidding inches beyond the far post as the Robins continued to dictate terms.

This has been a big week for Reading and their fans were in buoyant mood following the announcement of a multi-million takeover bid by Thames Sport Investment supremo Anton Zingarevich.

His spending power enhanced by the deal, Royals boss Brian McDermott recruited Roberts from Blackburn Rovers on Thursday and handed the 33-year-old his debut. And the former Bristol Rovers man soon demonstrated his Premier League class, shaking off two defenders and sending over a centre that narrowly eluded Michail Antonio.

When Reading finally awoke from their slumbers, it was Roberts and Antonio who threatened to give them the lead. James thrust out a leg to make a superb save from Antonio's initial shot and McGivern put his body on the line to effect a crucial clearance when Roberts followed up.

Roberts was certainly making his presence felt and he shrugged off another challenge to invite Stephen Hunt to pick out McAnuff, whose header at the back post sailed over the cross bar.

Antonio was causing City a problem down their left flank and a full-stretch Hunt narrowly failed to apply a finishing touch to the winger's low centre midway through the first half.

Having withstood heavy pressure, City almost took the lead themselves, Wood forcing Federici to spread himself and make an important block at point-blank range after a centre from Richard Foster panicked the Reading defence.

Unable to maintain their earlier pressure, the Royals were forced to try their luck at long-range pot shots, the best of these coming from Kaspars Gorkss moments before the interval.

City began the second half on the front foot and should have been in front in the 47th minute. Yannick Bolasie finally got the better of Shaun Cummings and Wood met his teasing cross with his head six yards out, only to direct the ball straight into the arms of Federici.

The visitors were left to rue that miss when, eight minutes later, Carey hauled down Roberts inside the 18 yard box and referee Pat Miller awarded a penalty. Deeming Carey to be the last man, he then showed City's captain a straight red card.

To make matters worse for the Robins, Roberts picked himself up to score from the spot, but only after James had saved his first effort.

City boss McInnes immediately sacrificed winger Bolasie, sending on James Wilson to plug the gap in central defence created by Carey's premature departure.

But Reading continued to pose a threat and Roberts, twisting and turning with his back to goal, engineered room for a shot which flashed inches wide.

City's 10 men were far from beaten, though, and they almost equalised on 66 minutes. Wood led a breakaway, held the ball up until support arrived and then fed Adomah, whose first-time shot came back off the cross bar and was cleared to safety.
But the visitors were indebted to James, who saved McAnuff's late penalty after Pearson had brought down substitute Cywka inside the box.

Reading (4-4-2): Federici; Cummings, Griffin, Gorkss, Pearce; Antonio (Cywka 82), Tabb, Karacan, McAnuff; Roberts (Church 77), Hunt.

City (4-5-1): James; Foster, Carey, Nyatanga, McGivern (Maynard 86); Adomah, Skuse, Cisse (Kilkenny 87), Pearson, Bolasie (Wilson 58); Wood.

Referee: Pat Miller (Bedfordshire)

Help for elderly and vulnerable to live at home

THE city council will increase the amount it spends on adaptations for elderly and vulnerable people who want to live at home longer.

Spending will rise from £2.55 million to £2.64 million in 2012/13, and this goes on installations of facilities including stair lifts and disabled-friendly bathrooms. But at the same time it will cut the amount it spends on repairs and maintenance of those adaptations, assessments for need, training and other support services.

The authority says this will be achieved from savings and providing a more efficient service while not cutting back on standards.

But concerns were raised during consultation on the changes that the service would not be improved. Elderly people said they wanted things kept as they were.

The Liberal Democrat-run cabinet last night approved a plan that will see it and its neighbouring three councils appoint a joint contract to deal with adaptations, at a cost of £922,000 per year over five years, saving the authority around £200,000.

But cabinet member for housing Anthony Negus said this did not mean a reduction in quality.

He said: "We've provided more adaptations to more people for less money and I'm very proud of that."
