About VOICE: I firmly believe that with the right training, anyone can sing! We all have the instrument built-in after all! Are you tone deaf? I can fix that. Crack on high notes? I can fix that. Nasal? Hoarse? Can't hold long notes? All of these are common vocal problems that can be easily be solved through guidance and practice. Trust me, no one ever regretted taking voice lessons!
About PIANO: How often do you sit down at a piano and wish you could just place your hands on the piano and magically create beautiful music? Piano is a challenging skill, but certainly not impossible. Learning to play the piano, even if it's never mastered, is such an incredible joy. Learning piano helps you to improve so many other skills as well, such as singing, any other instrument, and even math!
About ME: After completing my Master of Music degree in Vocal Performance at North Park University in Chicago, I moved here to NYC in 2010 to pursue my loves of music, acting, and education. Currently, I work as a Teaching Artist through Wingspan Arts, act in short films, and sing in concerts, operas, and musical theater productions around the city. I have been teaching acting, modeling, voice, and piano to children and adults of all ages for the last seven years. My goal is to professionally fuse my passion for music, theater, and education while continuing to learn, grow, and share the beauty and magic of the arts with others.
In my free time I enjoy movies, Broadway shows, cooking, exploring New York City, rock climbing, and swimming with sharks!
*** Lesson Details ***
For kids and adults alike, learning either voice or piano, I believe that you learn a lot more, and a lot faster when you feel comfortable and are having fun. With me, you will find an instructor who is patient, professional, motivating, challenging, and above all, encouraging. And fun. Did I mention fun?!
For voice students I like to use a mix of Broadway, Classical, and Popular music, depending on your needs and desires as a singer. I always assign a "teaching song" (a song that is good for training your voice) and a "fun song" (a song of your choice that you would like to sing just for fun!).
For piano students I like to use the Piano Adventures series by Faber & Faber. These are fun musical pieces, most of which are adapted from familiar classical works that have been arranged to teach you a certain technique.
For both, I always incorporate a balance of technique, music theory, and creative interpretation.
For acting students, it completely depends on your goals! We will work on different types of scripts, audition technique, and business skills for getting started in the real world!
Each lesson will likely involve warm-ups, games, reviews, new concepts, rehearsal, coaching, assignments, and rewards.
During our lessons, we will set short-term and long-term goals based on what you want to accomplish as a musician, what you expect from me, and what I feel you should be working on. I believe rewards are definitely appropriate!
Each one of the you has your own unique voice, hands, and ideas of what music means to you. My job is to get to know you and your musical self, and then design exercises and songs that will specifically fulfill your needs as a musician. Skill and technique are extremely important when learning to sing or play a musical instrument, but we must never forget what drew us to music in the first place! While we work on technique, we will also be discussing creativity, and the art of self expression, and have tons of fun in the process!

Bass Guitar, Clarinet, Drum, Flute, Guitar, Music Performance, Music Recording, Music Theory, Percussion, Piano, Songwriting
Originally from Indiana, David has been teaching music in both the private and public school sectors for 12 years. Getting his start as a drumline instructor with only 4 students, David soon expanded his teaching to include both guitar and piano, which he studied under Frank Puzzulo (of Miles Davis' group) at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana.
Upon graduating Ball State, David moved to Colorado to study jazz and classical music with Dr. Douglas Walter, an accomplished percussionist who is known for his versatility and multiple percussion talents. He also studied piano and guitar in his off time, jamming with several rock and jazz groups both in and out of school.
In 2006, David left the college scene with a Masters in Music and moved to Florida where he began his teaching career. In Florida, David taught roughly 70 students, ages 5 to 18, at Wewahitchka High School and Middle School. He was beloved by the town, helping out in the community as a local organist for the Presbyterian Church and as a frequent contributor to Wednesday night worship.
As wonderful as this time was, David gave up the gators and swamps to move back home to Indiana in 2007. Here, he took a job at Kokomo High School and Maple Crest Middle school where he resumed teaching students from 5th graders to seniors in all areas of music, including wind, strings/guitar and percussion. David established the first ever "rock and roll" class at the high school in 2008, a program that started with only 5 students and has ballooned to 38 in this current year! The class consisted of guitars, keyboards, bass and drums, all of which David can teach at a professional level.
Most recently, David graduated with his second Masters in Jazz Performance from DePaul University. He studied primarily with professor Ron Perillo, unquestionably the most innovative piano player in Chicago and with Bob Palmieri, a gifted guitarist. Having now graduated, David is devoting himself full time to teaching private students and looks very much forward to working with you!
*** Lesson Details ***
Although David has a laid back personality and approach to life, he takes his job very seriously. He prides himself in not being the kind of teacher who is there simply to entertain and hope the student learns something in the process. Though you will most certainly have a good time, you should only take from him if you really want to become a great musician/player. Having been a highly qualified public school teacher for 5 years, David has more experience than most private teachers you can find. He knows what it takes to achieve greatness and he knows that most students, in the end, respect that more than a half hour "jam session."
David will tailor his curriculum to each student. Every student is expected to have a notebook with staff paper and a pencil at their lesson. Students will also be assigned a book to purchase (in some cases more than one) and he/she will progress through it at a pace appropriate to his or her level.
More than anything, what you will see in David's lessons is his love for music and teaching music. It is truly a special thing to be gifted in this art, and he believes that anyone who is willing to put in the time, the effort and the dedication needed will be rewarded and enriched in the end.
David is also available for online lessons via Skype! He loves taking advantage of this modern technology in his lessons and is happy to take on new students in this format.
*** Studio Equipment ***
He has a fully weighted digital piano, electronic keyboard, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, clarinet, flute and various percussion equipment in a room completely devoted to music. Can accommodate seating for parents.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can bring my own guitar/bass, but any drum lessons or piano lessons would require the student to have the necessary instrument at home.
*** Specialties ***
I specialize in non-wind instruments, especially drums, percussion, bass guitar, piano and rock guitar. I consider myself extremely versatile with various styles and genres. Piano lessons are taught on a wonderful, fully weighted 88 key keyboard. I apply several teaching methods to reach as many kids as possible, with a focus on hands-on learning.

Oboe, Phonics, Piano, Reading
Bonnie started piano at age 4, clarinet by third grade, and oboe in the 8th grade. In High School, she played oboe, bagpipes, and saxophone in the jazz band winning the Best Jazz Soloist Award. She also won the Young Artist Competition and played with the Tampa Symphony. While attending USF, she continued to perform with the Tampa Symphony and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. She then attended the University of Michigan and received her Master of Music degree and performed with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and many chamber groups in the area.
In 2003, she created the Pop Oboe series with 4 CDs, a member of the Recording Academy and had her cds on the Grammy Nomination list.
Now in the Orlando area, she is a freelance musician and has performed at Universal, The Museum of Art, The Winter Park Art Festival,and many more.
In 2012, she created a piano curriculum that uses animals to teach note reading and piano. Creating this curriculum makes learning music FUN!
All along the way, she was teaching private music students, Kindermusik and also Homeschooling her three children for 10 years.
Using several curriculum for phonics, and reading, while Homeschooling, is why she is offering this service through Take Lessons.
*** Lesson Details ***
FUN and More FUN can be expected with the background of Kindermusik and Homeschooling! Bonnie has learned that students best respond to learning if the environment is FUN and engaging. Through homeschooling and her years of teaching background, your students can expect LOTS of PATIENCE because Bonnie relates to each student and how they learn best on an individual level. Every student has a different way they learn, and Bonnie quickly tunes in to their way of learning.

Pop, Rock, Classical
English, GRE, Harp, Piano, Violin
After five years of begging my parents, I started playing the harp when I was 11. I started competing at 14, performing gigs at 16, and teaching at 17. I consider myself lucky because I found my passion early. I loved it from the beginning. But I also believe it doesn't matter when you find it: start from wherever you are and embrace it from there.
Also at 17, I played with a local city symphony � my first symphony experience! By the time I was entering college, I was drawn to Celtic music, a soothing, folky counterpoint to classical. I do both!
I began my piano studies at age 9. I love what piano does for ear training, for visualizing theory, and for all around musicianship! The piano is versatile and fundamental. Bach and Kabalevsky are my favorites for piano.
*** Lesson Details ***
I believe that persistent creativity is the most important skill I bring as a teacher. If one explanation, process, or method doesn't work for my student, I will create another.
I work to help students find and keep access to their internal motivation to play whatever it is and however it is they want to play.
Students get to set their own goals, and I get to help them reach them. If performance level play is what my student wants, I'll move with them toward that. If they want to play only five pieces for personal fulfillment, enjoyment, or even healing, that is what we move toward. I work with students to help them generally stick to whatever they set for themselves. If they commit to themselves to practice every day, that's what I expect; if they commit to themselves practice in feast or famine waves, that's what I expect. Together we find the cadence that works for the student.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Lessons in my home in a room dedicated to studio teaching; music stands, benches/stools, 3 harps, keyboard
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can provide a harp for rent; otherwise, I expect the student to provide the instrument and the books.
*** Specialties ***
- Folk and classical harp (both pedal harp and lever harp), also some jazz harp (pedal harp only)
- Classical and modern traditional piano, folk and pop keyboard
- Classical violin
"Steven is very professional and extremely helpful. He always has a smile on and is serious about helping you phrase the music. I would highly recommend him to anyone."

I would first like to give due credit to NightCrawler for his recent post regarding a meteor-based build. I have also been tweaking a meteor build on my wiz as she has leveled to Plvl43. I have arrived at some similar conclusions as him, but would like to point to a specific build combo and gear loadout type that may be very effective in 1.07 which should be going active in an hour or two.
Primarily it revolves around a synergy between the three of:
Signature: Shock Pulse-Living Lightning
Passive: Arcane Dynamo
AP Spender: Meteor-your choice, I currently use Comet (possibly Bilz for no APOC builds with the new patch)
The way Living Lightning attacks repeatedly but at low damage causes Arcane Dynamo to stack so quickly that when attacking multiple targets, often multiple meteors can be released consecutively at the full AD stack.
My secondary skills to compliment the main 3 are:
Diamond Skin-Crystal Shell (sometimes shards at lower mp)
Frost Nova-Bone Chill
Energy Armor-Prismatic (sometimes Pinpoint)
Critical Mass
Cold Blooded
These added on allow me to add two hidden dps bonuses, and give the survivability/sustain and mobility that make the build work for me.
Using the main 3 doesn't require any particular gear loadout other than a suggested APS of 1.5 or higher.
To make the whole build work really well, I would build a bit to favor your EHP over DPS.
40+ crit chance
700 unbuffed allres
4000 unbuffed armor
50k HP
some form of life return
my profile
With the patch I may try dropping nova for bliz but we'll have to see. The main reason to switch it would be the slight annoyance of "wasting" the 5AD on a nova occasionaly.
Results 1 to 6 of 6

Re: Living Dynamo
Recommended stats like 700 unbuffed res, 4k armor, 50k HP and 15+ APOC make me think that this build needs very expensive gear.
And with that kinda gear you probably get better results from CM?
13-02-2013, 19:59 #3
Re: Living Dynamo
As for CM being more effective, you may have noticed that CM is in the build. Maybe the common Wicked Wind/Explosive Blast CM build is what you were referring to. The answer to that is simple: I find this one more fun
As for needing pricey gear, I don't think so. I am not a rich player, and I think a no-crit, no-APOC variant for the poor would also be viable (maybe swapping CM for Prodigy, Comet for Star Pact and Nova for bliz).

Re: Living Dynamo
Alright then. It's good when it's fun.
I'm using Blizzard/Hydra/Frost beam now and it's awesome playing in a group. My friend who's playing WW barb absolutely loves it when I slow everything with Blizzard. I like that I'm not using cookie cutter and still having fun. I was Archon before. NEVER again.

Re: Living Dynamo
Hi there. I've tried for long the Meteor build as a true CMWW hater: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculato...QSX!gXb!ZZZYZZ .
This one involves ALOT of APOC due to the fact that you have no other offense spells. Another problem of this build is that you need ALOT of RES and ARMOR due to the fact that you're forced to have Storm Armor to reduce Meteor cost.
After 1.0.7 i've read this thread and give living dinamo a try.
Meteor DMG output is GREAT. And you actually do not need too mutch APOC. I have 9 just from source and is pretty fine if you use LL. The only stats that i suggest are CC and CD.
With 50.5 CC and 330 CD i farm mp8 solo (and is pretty amazing when you see 1m crits). The only change i made is Astral presence instead of Cold Blooded.
20-03-2013, 02:19 #6
Re: Living Dynamo
I've used a variant of this build that's been floating around the b.net forums that uses Shards, SA and Chain Reaction instead of Shell, Prismatic and Tele (along with a similar Spectral Blades build that does less damage but has higher sustain) and I'm pretty sure SNS is the only Wizard build that has higher a higher edps multi. You don't need 2.31+ APS to run it, either, which makes it much less expensive to get the mitigation you need to use things like Shards or SA. You can even use Prodigy until you get some APoC on your gear, since LL synergizes really well with it. Even safer variants that only swap in SA, or use Energy Armor as in this build, are super strong. It's a good build.

For the second straight game, the Cedar softball team struggled at the start and fell behind early.
Pine View clinched a tie for the region title with a 4-0 home win over Canyon View Wednesday night.
The Snow Canyon tennis team is counting on its experience to compete for a Region 9 title this season. With seasoned talent at many levels, the future is now for the program.
The end of the bowling season can't get here soon enough for some bowlers. But not John Peters.
Though they sit on different ends of the spectrum in the Region 9 standings, it took the Dixie Flyers until double overtime to top the Hurricane Tigers the first time these two teams met this season.
'All that is gold does not glitter.'
In their last chance to impress the committee before the initial release of the regional rankings, the Dixie State softball team sent a resounding message, throttling visiting BYU-Hawaii, 7-1 and 9-1, at Karl Brooks Field on Senior Night.
If there's one thing Canyon View has learned from playing Cedar this year, it's that no matter how big the lead, don't get comfortable.
If adversity is an athlete's biggest challenge, then Luke Heaton is ready for anything that comes his way.
Southern Utah (14-21, 6-2 Big Sky) dropped two more nonconference games to BYU (21-21, 4-2 WCC) in a midweek doubleheader in Provo on Tuesday. The pair of losses dropped the Thunderbirds to 0-3 in their meetings with the Cougars this season.
Nick Young scored a season-high 41 points and helped the Los Angeles Lakers snap a seven-game losing streak with a 119-104 victory against the Utah Jazz Monday night.
As we arrive at another April 15, we have to square our accounts with Uncle Sam and, with just one game left in the season, take account of the season Jazz fans have just suffered through.
Southern Utah athletics hosted its seventh annual Thunderbird Scholar Awards Banquet, honoring student athletes for their academic achievements during the 2013-14 school year.
To borrow an overused phrase and dash it up a bit, it was a tale of two Mondays.
As the final hours of the sixth weekend of Major League Soccer's 2014 season ticked off the clock, Real Salt Lake became the league's final unbeaten team.
Southern Utah's women's tennis finished its 2014 road schedule with a 5-2 victory at Eastern Washington on Sunday. The win improves the Thunderbirds to 8-10 overall and 3-6 in the Big Sky while the Eagles drop to 3-16 and 1-8 in conference play.
Mitch Mantle (Dixie 2008) batted 3-for-5 with two RBIs and one run scored for Southern Virginia in an 8-5 loss at home against Salisbury on Saturday.
Desert Hills knows distance there's a recent cross-country state title in the trophy case to prove it.
When Dakota Donovan takes the field for Pine View, there's a strong sense of calmness and veteran-like confidence from the sophomore.
All good things must come to an end.
The Falcons came to Snow Canyon Friday, looking to exact revenge after losing to the Warriors nearly a month ago at home.
As his starter's pitch count was climbing, Pine View head coach Mike Gargano knew sophomore Dakota Donovan's energy level was running low.
The Dixie boys tennis team kicked off its Region 9 regular season Thursday evening in ideal fashion. Led by a strong showing from their singles unit, the Flyers garnered a gutty 3-2 win at Desert Hills.
After coaching with three programs in Region 9 over the last 15 years, Chris Allred announced Wednesday he was stepping down as head coach of Desert Hills girls basketball a large step, considering his team lost only one game on the way to his first sta
The whoosh of the club and ping of the ball coming off the tee were plentiful sounds at the Sky Mountain Golf Course Thursday afternoon as the Region 9 girls golf teams met for battle once again.
In the early stages of the Region 13 softball season, the Parowan Rams were a team in search of an identity. Mistakes were a problem, and runs were being given up in bunches.
Snow Canyon hit the court in Cedar City for the second time in as many days Thursday, and came away with another win, this one a 5-0 sweep of Canyon View.
Pine View's softball team erupted for nine runs in the first two innings en route to a much-needed win over a young Hurricane squad, 15-3, Thursday in five innings.
It's been pretty warm in Southern Utah for a while now, but growing up in the northern part of the state, April for me always signified the beginning of spring and the return of warmth and the golf season.
The Region 9 baseball season is only about halfway done, but it's apparent Desert Hills High has what it takes to vie for its second straight region title.
As they stared at a large third-set deficit, Snow Canyon's Michael Russell took his doubles partner, Tanner Deal, aside and had a talk.
Desert Hills High School girl's basketball coach, Chris Allred, announced Wednesday that he was planning on stepping down as head coach of the Thunder.
The last time starter Kayden Lunt pitched for Cedar, he threw six scoreless innings at Desert Hills before a hit and a bobbled throw sent home the game-losing run.
The annual trips to Iron County have been fruitful for Desert Hills this season.
The Region 9 boys soccer race changed in the split second it took Dixie's Alex Green to head in the game winner, after 98 minutes of goalless play.
Dirk Nowitzki scored 21 points on 9-of-11 shooting, and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Utah Jazz 95-83 on Tuesday night for their fifth consecutive victory.
If the sixth ranked offense in the NCAA Division II needed to validate its potency, the Dixie State University softball team made itself known on Tuesday afternoon in a pair of non-conference wins over Fort Lewis College 11-2 and 7-2 in Durango.
No conference wanted them. Several teammates and their coach left them. The NCAA kept them out for a year.
We've arrived at the end of our three-part series (to call it a trilogy would make it sound classier than it really is) looking at the Jazz roster as we leave the 2013-14 season behind (way, way behind) and try to look forward to 2014-15 and beyond.
With Nick Rimando, Real Salt Lake's first-choice goalkeeper, all but a lock to make the U.S.
Shelia Gelter (Dixie 2011) posted a .667 batting average, seven RBIs and four runs scored en route to leading Dixie State to sweep a four-game series at home against Chaminade from March 30-April 1.
Southern Utah women's basketball coach JR Payne is ending her five-year stint with the Thunderbirds after being announced as the new head coach at Santa Clara on Sunday.
All Dixie State needed was to avoid the fifth inning responsible for 12 of Asuza Pacific's 27 runs through three games of the series heading into Saturday's finale.
As heavy-metal guitar riffs blared from the loudspeakers, the Southern Utah defensive unit found another gear, administering one solid hit and adding an interception.

Backup goalkeeper Jeff Attinella made nine saves, including several spectacular first-half stops, but Real Salt Lake had to settle for a scoreless draw with shorthanded Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night.

The public relations brilliance of the ex-presidents has not been lost on outgoing Washoe County School District Superintendent Heath Morrison. Last Sunday, the Charlotte Observer published three major articles on their new school boss. The only public criticisms came from the Barbwire and Reno-Sparks NAACP President Lonnie Feemster. We both await feedback from the school district.
Feemster wants to review basic data used to produce Dr. Morrison's miraculous graduation rates. I requested information on programs designed to allow students to make up lost ground. Perhaps I already have my answer.
Charlotte Observer education reporter Ann Helms, who spent a week in Nevada researching the Morrison record, wrote that "Morrison introduced a door-to-door campaign to locate the hundreds of students a year who were listed as 'vanished,' along with those who had officially dropped out, and get them into school. If dropouts who are 18 or older enroll in the Washoe Adult High School, they are switched into the 'transfer out' category, which means they're removed from the calculation entirely, counting neither as graduates or dropouts. Morrison says it's better to have those young adults working on their education than sitting at home, but he acknowledges it's too early to say whether they'll be successful."
I have been contacted by longtime local educators who share a very different perspective.
One says door-knocking basically ceases in late September after enrollment numbers have been hyped to obtain maximum funding from the state. Another says door-knocking is a prelude to permanently wipe students off the books as though they never existed, thus artificially inflating the graduation rate, a Carter-Reagan spin from Morrison.
"Yes, in fact Reno's grad rate is too good to be true," an anonymous commenter wrote in response to Helms' blog.
"Charlotte will soon follow because ... principals are putting students through APEX classes by the dozens, a computer program where students sit, answer questions and then are given full course credit," the reader stated.
A local teacher with more than 30 years' experience criticized similar Washoe programs where students work online for far less time than they would spend in class. Testing is also done online.
M&M Part Deux
In this column last week and subsequently online, I have been working to keep the community libraries in Verdi and northeast Reno from being wiped out. Just who can act to save them becomes a circular firing squad.
"The Board of County Commissioners sets your budget," I wrote to Washoe County Library Director Arnold Maurins last week, "but, as you stated at the Library Board's May 17 meeting, the commission has no say on how that budget is allocated, including whether or not to keep Duncan/Traner and Verdi open for the few extra hours they now allow the public after school. If the partnership agreement between the county and library system is dissolved, how much will the two small libraries lose in resources like books and computers?
"I am informed that fully two-thirds of the resources at Duncan/Traner are Library System property, although overhead costs are covered by the school district.
"It appears that county commissioners and administrators could utilize the resource data as they take into consideration passing a final annual budget at their Monday, May 21, meeting, which in turn will drive your decision and that of the library board as to the survival of the two libraries," I concluded.
Commissioners and the county manager say they don't want to lose the facilities and that the impetus for gutting them is coming from Maurins, who can cover his ass by saying that he's acting on recommendations from a now-defunct citizens advisory committee, a member of which told me last week that they only made up a list of options.
All this ignores that Duncan-Traner is located in the most underprivileged part of town.
Maybe gutting libraries will eventually improve the overall high school graduation rate if many of these kids never enroll in the first place. A longtime teacher recently informed me that nobody tracks eighth-graders who never make it to high school.
I am again reminded of the timeless observation of former Sen. Joe Neal, D-North Las Vegas: "A library is a poor man's university."

Earlier this year, on 7 February, the democratically elected president of the Maldives (a small island chain in the Indian Ocean) was forced to step down. Acting presumably under the influence of the country's former dictator, members of the main opposition party succeeded in convincing elements of the armed forces to oust President Mohamed Nasheed. Rather than taking a heavy-handed approach, President Nasheed opted for the path of nonviolence, and unlike former leaders, chose to resign instead of going out guns blazing. To dramatize the political situation there, countering the perception that what happened in February was at all legitimate, the Maldivian metal band Traphic Jam has written a scathing protest song called "Bagaavai" — or "coup d'état" in Dhivehi.
All talk of the coup aside, President Nasheed is actually a rather interesting figure — almost without equal among heads of state. In 2008 he led a nonviolent movement for democracy in the Maldives, culminating in free elections in which the dictator Maumoon Gayoom, at that point in power a full 30 years, was finally removed from power.
He's also been a very active voice in raising international awareness about climate change, given the fact that no point in the Maldives sits over six feet above sea level. As part of his efforts to save the country from a projected rise in tides that could see it underwater by the end of the century, Nasheed pledged to make the Maldives the first carbon-neutral country in modern history by 2020, in hopes that other nations would follow suit.
In 2009 he held an underwater cabinet meeting to dramatize the plight of his country, providing one of the most remarkably effective visuals in modern memory to educate about climate change. Nasheed and his struggle are the subjects of a brand new documentary called The Island President, for which Radiohead — in a political move in and of itself — agreed to compose the soundtrack.
If you're interested in learning more, Waging Nonviolence recently conducted an interview with the island president where he speaks about this and all manner of things in a very candid look.
As to the current political situation in the Maldives, Nasheed is currently touring countries around the world, raising awareness about the need for early elections, which he hopes will give him a chance to prove that the weight of civil society is still behind him.

Columbia professor's new book aims to discuss the group's history without using other peoples' lenses. The lecture was co-sponsored by the UCLA Center for Near Eastern Studies.
This article was first published in The Daily Bruin.
By Alexa Vaughn, Daily Bruin contributor
A BOOK TOUR discussion about the history of the Palestinian people and their efforts to gain statehood drew the attention of students, faculty and residents of Los Angeles in the Faculty Center on Thursday.
At the center of the exchange was Professor Rashid Khalidi, the Edward Said Chair of Arab Studies at Columbia University, and his new book, "The Iron Cage: The Palestinian Struggle for Statehood."
Khalidi said he wrote the book because he has not found any other historical narrative written in English which solely focuses on the Palestinian people.
"That narrative is subsumed into other histories in this country," he said.
Khalidi said that this is because many other efforts to explain Palestinian history are blended or even obscured by the more well-known script of Jewish history, leaving the Palestinian narrative largely unknown or misunderstood.
"(The United States) has a tendency to look at the broader conflict ... and view Palestine through a prism of terrorism," Khalidi said. "To see everything in those terms does violence to every individual reality, whether it is Israel's, Lebanon's or Palestine's."
Gabriel Piterburg, professor of history at UCLA, offered some rebuttals to Khalidi's philosophy, saying the historical narrative of Israel and Palestine are inseparable.
"The process of colonization is what made them, and that's where I think the narrative is one," Piterburg said. "There is no Israel narrative without the failure of Palestinians."
Khalidi emphasized that though his book is about creating an individual narrative for Palestine, it is not divided from the histories of other countries, as he believes many of Palestinians' struggles are the result of outside interventions.
But Khalidi said that while the histories obviously intersect, the Palestinians' struggle to establish statehood also lies within the politics of their own leadership.
According to Khalidi, Palestinians' political parties have never been united enough to create a state, and international forces have made the possibility even more distant.
Khalidi also said he wrote the book to answer the question of whether statehood for any population is inevitable if the population wants it.
He said he could not predict Palestine's chances for statehood in the future, but said the current political parties leading Palestine are not promising mediums for progress.
Leeron Morad, president of Bruins for Israel, did not agree with some of Khalidi's assessments of Israel, particularly Khalidi's implications that minority groups face difficulties in Israel.
"Israel is country where minorities enjoy full citizenship," Morad said.
Morad did agree, however, with Khalidi's observation that Palestinians would have had a much higher chance for statehood in the past if they had been under more responsible leadership.
Khalidi started writing the book before the events of Sept. 11, 2001, but parted with the project temporarily to study the effects of the terrorist attack.

Mars Bars: A Delicious ControversyMonday, February 19th, 2007 by benjamin
Never have I associated so much pop trivia with a candy bar! Mars Bar is not only known for its scrumptious caramel, nougat, and almond all doused in milk chocolate, but it is also dipped in some delicious myths, legends, and controversy.
1960s: One popular myth that never died throughout the decades tells us that while raiding one particular Rolling Stones party the police found the legendary Mick Jagger eating a Mars Bars strategically between the legs of Marianne Faithfull. Of course, she denies it to this day. Even if it wasn't true, that is certainly one way I've never considered eating a Mars Bar.
December 2003: Friends or foe, the Mars Bar appeals to all. Our United States military captured Saddam Hussein with a stash of Mars Bars within arms reach during Operation Red Dawn.
July 2005: The parent company of Mars Bars recalled their shipment in Australia due to an extortion attempt against Sydney's Star City Casino. The extortionist claimed to have poisoned several Mars bars at random, so the company recalled the product in New South Wales. This just goes to show that such a sinfully delicious chocolate bar has its negative aspects too.
And the list goes on. It's a shame that this delectable gem is no longer sold. However, the parent company does sell a line of Snickers that acts as the official replacement of the Mars Bar. So the next time you take a break from these dreary winter days and take a bite out of the Snickers Almond Mars Bar, just think – you're a part of chocolate history.
2 Responses to "Mars Bars: A Delicious Controversy"
Actually, it is still sold, just not in the US. Only American Mars bars ever had almonds in them. The rest of the world has Mars bars without almonds, similar to an American Milky Way bar. See Cybele's candy blog http://www.typetive.com/candyblog/item/milky_way_mars_canada_uk/ for more details, or Wikipedia.

Comments about Bliss Steep Clean Pore Minimizing Toner Pads-50 ct:
Awhile back, I ordered the entire Steep Clean line to help "fix" my post-pregnancy wacky skin - when used in unison with the rest of the product line, it was an effective tool to clear my skin of blemishes. :)
