I understand that there are many desires a pupil can have about learning music, especially towards the practicality of the modern world and I hope to gear the student towards that. I have worked with children for almost a decade so I am comfortable with youth education. My experience with working with children is mostly with the Boy Scouts of America since I was 14. From teaching scouts about nature, to directing shooting ranges as an NRA Rifle Safety Officer, to eventually managing a camp. As a young adult who has just finished their music degree from collage and working to further my education, I can understand the process of learning a musical instrument and guide the student on a smoother path to their goals.
*** Lesson Details ***
When taking lessons with me, you can expect for a teacher who listens to the desires of his or her student. I believe music theory and technique is essential to learning an instrument, but it can be rough and boring so I spend a good portion of the lesson working with the student towards their goals. This curriculum brings the most important motivation in learning an instrument, which is achieving improvement while having fun. After 3 months, an adult student should have the ability to read music and play chords so they may learn the songs they love and I can help them along. With a child my expectations are different because in my experience most youth under the age of 9 have not established a recognition for the music around them. To compensate for a child I spend a portion of the lesson introducing different styles of music such as classical, jazz, rock, and world. I hope not only to increase the pupil's interest towards their instrument but into music and art in general. My overall goal with a long term student is to understand the basics of technique, reading music, and understanding theory. Once past there I make a point to make the intermediate student want to practice by applying basic skills learned at the beginner level and bring them into songwriting, improvisation, and learning a their favorite radio songs or show tunes.
*** Studio Equipment ***
Weighted and unweighted electric pianos, harmonicas, marimba, kazoos, guitars, amplifiers, ukulele, drums, other string instruments, my library of music and method books, and just a great room of musical fun. There is a cat in this home if you have allergies.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I can provide the music books, worksheets, amplifiers, bass guitars, pencils and paper.
*** Specialties ***
For Piano I stick to Faber's teaching for youth beginner and than I use Ferdinand Breyer's method for intermediate. My main style of playing that i received in education is mostly in jazz and improvisation. I like to focus of my teaching of music in the genres of jazz, classical, pop, rock, and blues.
I have been playing guitar and bass for over 35 years and traveled the world playing concerts in Clubs and Stadiums. My band ESTUS was signed to Columbia Records by Clive Davis, I played with the Eddie Kirkland Blues Band, formed Fat City in Woodstock NY, and played toured nationally with Quicksilver Messenger Service. Currently I play in RSB, the Rick Sickmen Band, and teach at the School of Rock in Vienna. I want to share my knowledge and extensive experience with students to 'play it forward' while having fun.
*** Lesson Details ***
From beginners to experienced players everyone has their own goals and style of learning. I will try to have my students playing songs as soon as possible, in the style (rock, blues, country) that they want, while teaching some basic music theory to build on.

*** Lesson Details ***
Lessons are custom designed to meet the needs of every student, whether it is someone just starting out with the basics or for that seasoned player that wants to hone their professional skills.

In good news for Brits with space on their coffee tables, Taschen opened its latest flagship today. The 650-square-foot London shop is located next to the new Saatchi Gallery, stocking the publisher's usual mix of sex, art, and photo books, and includes a gallery in the basement. The design? By Philippe Starck (what, you were expecting Zaha?), who previously collaborated with the imprint on stores in Cologne and Beverly Hills. Sadly, no word on whether the new store will also have a MySpace page, much less if it will be as saucy as the New York shop's.

Three teens charged in Peterborough home invasion
PETERBOROUGH - Three teenagers were arrested and charged with burglary after making an armed home invasion at 4:30 a.m. on Christmas Eve.
Dylan Cadorette, 17, of Bennington; Austin Cadorette, 17 of Antrim; and Isaac Lyons, 17 also of Antrim forced their way into a basement-level bedroom at 39 Lounsbury Lane where one of the intruders brandished a shotgun.
A 17-year-old who was sleeping in the room, confronted the intruders but was tackled and hit over the head with the butt of the shotgun by an intruder several times. After the victim referred to the intruders by name, they fled the home.
Two hours later, they were arrested when police from Peterborough, Bennington, Greenfield, Antrim, and Hancock went to a South Bennington residence and arrested the suspects.
The victim was taken to Monadnock Community Hospital in Peterborough where he was treated and released.
All three suspects were charged with burglary and held at the Valley Street Jail in Manchester on $50,000 cash bail each. They are due to be arraigned in Jaffrey-Peterborough Court today.
The case is still under investigation by Peterborough Police.

I am changing the names of those involved to protect the innocent, and by "innocent," I mean me, of course. But I have been the victim of a bad setup.
I do not blame those who get excited about wanting to set me up. Girls love to play matchmaker and take credit for bringing together two obvious soul mates who would've never found each other without some divine interference. And the older I get, I'm like, whatever…Why not…What can it hurt…I need an excuse to get my roots done and a pedicure anyway…
So the meeting was set. It definitely wasn't a date. It was a meeting. But it would be a group meeting to ease the pressure. The pressure from what? For whom? The setter uppers? The guy? Me? Was I supposed to be feeling pressure? Because for some odd reason, I was feeling zero pressure. Sure, the mind wanders over to the Land of What If for a minute or two, but then the Hunchback of Broken Dreams stomps over and shoos you right back into the Kingdom of Reality.
So I show up looking fairly cute for a 40-something, if I do say so myself. You've got to put for a little effort, right? The mastermind of this matchup is already there with two of her friends. So I join "April," "Betty" and "Carla" for a round of adult beverages as we await the arrival of "Dean," who shows up about 20 minutes later with Mr. and Mrs. "Everly," who are also playing a part in this potential love connection. So I scoot over to make room for Dean. "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you." And that was pretty much the extent of our conversation. I attempted a question or two, but it was met with an adjective and adverb-free response. And then it was announced that his other friends were arriving. So I and everybody at the table scoot down to make room for Dean's friends, and he proceeds to get up and move to the table behind us.
April and Mr. and Mrs. Everly seemed to be somewhat embarrassed and a little disappointed and then proceeded to explain that Dean is very shy and perhaps a little socially awkward. And this is who they think would be a potential match for ME?? So we stayed to finish our final round of adult beverages and, with a wave over the shoulder, I said goodbye to all the hopes and dreams Dean and I failed to live up to for April and the Everlys.
The funny thing is, I feel like April is mad at ME!! But what could I have done differently? And the thing is, I'm not even the least bit upset about being rejected or whatever that was. Maybe in my 30s I would've taken it personally. I'm too old for that ish now. And maybe if I was lonely I would be all depressed. But I've got plenty of love in my life from friends and family to freak out over some monosyllabic set up who moved to another freaking table!! By the way, what was up with that??
At least I got my roots and my toes done.

Earlier Updates
Here are today's Lester and Hamels rumors…
Here are the latest notes from around baseball:
Elsewhere in the division…
We'll keep tabs on the day's 40-man additions here, and you can also check Baseball America's running updates, which includes breakdowns of the players added.
Earlier Updates
It's no surprise that Masterson is generating this much free agent buzz, as the righty averaged 199 IP from 2010-13 and was one of the game's best starters during the 2013 season. As MLBTR's Zach Links noted in his Free Agent Profile of Masterson, a team could be in for a major bargain if the righty regains his old form. Whether he signs for one year or two, Masterson seems destined for a short-term deal as he's banking on that return to form and the opportunity to set himself up for a more expensive multiyear deal next winter or after the 2016 season.
The six teams Crasnick lists present an interesting array of suitors, incorporating the two pennant winners, three teams looking to return to contention in 2015 and the rebuilding Twins, who can offer Masterson a pitcher-friendly ballpark to help rebuild his value. Team defense is also undoubtedly a big factor for Masterson, an extreme ground ball pitcher with a 56.6% career grounder rate.]]>
Actually, not much. Or, at least, not much Wood could have controlled. In 2013, Wood's xFIP was 4.50. In 2014, it was 4.51. By far the most important cause of his two-run jump in ERA was a 72-point increase in his batting average on balls in play, from .248 to .320. Wood walked batters at a significantly higher rate (4.0 BB/9 vs. 3.0) in 2014, but he struck out more of them, too, and slightly increased his ground ball percentage, although he remained a fly ball pitcher. His command was worse, but not so much so that it represented a fundamental change. Perhaps the biggest difference between the two seasons was Wood's cut fastball, which was lost a mile an hour in velocity and was far less effective in 2014. In general, though, the best way to explain the difference between the two seasons is that Wood wasn't nearly as good as his 2013 ERA, nor as bad as his ERA last year.
Wood's team has changed as well. Even if Wood hadn't had a strong-looking 2013 season, he would have had utility on the 2014 Cubs, which looked poised to unload veteran starters like Jeff Samardzija, Jason Hammel and (if he had pitched well) Edwin Jackson. Having an innings eater like Wood makes sense when facing that kind of upheaval, and if Wood had somehow repeated his 2013 performance, he would have had trade value himself.
2015 is different. Jake Arrieta emerged during the 2014 season as a top young starter, and Kyle Hendricks and Tsuyoshi Wada had unexpectedly strong seasons as well. The Cubs are likely to continue to give chances to Jacob Turner, and Jackson is also still under contract. There's also Eric Jokisch, Felix Doubront and Dan Straily as potential rotation candidates. And then, of course, the Cubs are expected to be major players for free agent pitching and could perhaps add two hurlers this offseason. Despite the wide variance in Wood's ERAs, he's essentially a back-end lefty who can soak up innings. That makes him useful, but perhaps not for the 2015 Cubs, who will have plenty of options who are either better or who have more upside.
Then, of course, there's Wood's salary. The Frontline client's strong 2013 numbers set a relatively high baseline for his salaries during his arbitration years, and he's projected to make $5.5MM in 2015. Many teams would likely see $5.5MM as more than Wood is worth, so it's doubtful he has much trade value. Teams like the Braves, Diamondbacks, Phillies, Rangers, Twins or White Sox could have interest in Wood, but perhaps not so much that they're willing to give up $5.5MM and trade talent to get him, particularly not so early in the offseason.
One factor working against Wood is that the free agent market for pitching is rather strong, particularly in comparison with the rest of the market. The non-tender deadline is December 2, and plenty of higher-upside arms will surely remain on the free agent market then. The most likely outcome, therefore, might be that the Cubs non-tender Wood, and he signs elsewhere later in the offseason.

8:43pm: Executives involved in negotiations with free agent catcher Russell Martin believe the Cubs are the leading bidders, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports tweets. Rosenthal further suggests that the negotiations are heading toward a deal in the range of four years and $64MM, a bit less than the five years and $72.5MM MLBTR's Steve Adams recently projected for Martin.
The other teams most strongly connected to Martin have been the Dodgers, Blue Jays and Pirates, although the Pirates recently traded for Francisco Cervelli, a possible indication that they feel it's unlikely they can re-sign their catcher. They extended Martin a qualifying offer, which he declined. The Cubs' top pick (No. 9 overall) is protected, so they'll only have to give up their second-round pick if they sign Martin.
A report early in November indicated that the Cubs intended to pursue Martin. The team intends to be a major bidder for top free agents this offseason, and Martin represents a significant offensive upgrade over incumbent Welington Castillo. Also, Martin excels at framing and has gotten excellent marks for his work with pitchers, two good traits for a team aiming to develop young pitching.]]>
La Stella made his MLB debut for the Braves in 2014 and slashed .251/.328/.317 in 319 plate appearances while leading all National League rookies with his .328 OBP and 36 walks. La Stella, who will turn 26 in January, joins a crowded Cubs second base picture with Javier Baez, Arismendy Alcantara, and Logan Watkins seeing time there last year. Third baseman Luis Valbuena also saw over 150 innings at second base, as well. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal opines La Stella is not an ideal positional fit, although the Cubs like his bat and ability to make contact and have tried to obtain him for a while. In a series of tweets, Rosenthal feels this trade could be a precursor to other moves and, while not necessarily because of La Stella's addition, Starlin Castro may be the odd man out (I, II, III).
With La Stella being moved, Ramiro Pena and Philip Gosselin are the only second basemen on the Braves' 40-man roster. Top prospect Jose Peraza could still be a year away after having split 2014 between Class A-Advanced and Double-A. David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution tweets the Braves may give Peraza a look during Spring Training, but he expects they will sign a bridge second baseman on a one-year deal.
Vizcaino, who the Cubs acquired two years ago from the Braves in the Paul Maholm trade, only made five appearances during his Chicago career, all this past September (three earned runs over five innings), as he recovered from Tommy John surgery. The 24-year-old spent the bulk of 2014 across three levels of the Cubs' organization posting a combined 3.51 ERA, 9.2 K/9, and 4.0 BB/9 in 41 innings of work during 40 relief outings.
Here's more out of the American League:
Some more free agent notes as baseball news slows down following the conclusion of the GM Meetings…
NOV. 4: Another high profile Korean pitcher and his KBO team have decided to take a run through the posting system. As Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News reports, lefty Hyeon-jong Yang will be posted by the Kia Tigers in the next few weeks.
Yang joins countryman (and fellow 26-year-old southpaw) Kwang-Hyun Kim in preparing for the posting process. Kim outperformed Yang last year, registering a 3.42 ERA to the 4.25 mark notched by Yang in a notoriously hitter-friendly environment.
Feinsand's sources tell him that Yang has a low-to-mid 90's fastball and useful slider (as well as a curve and change) that could hold appeal. According to the Yonhap News Agency, which recently reported that Yang was interested in coming to North America, Yang's 2014 season was fairly characteristic of his results. Over his career, per Yonhap, he has struck out 740 over 860 1/3 frames.]]>
Here's the latest out of the division:
Here's more from the game's Central divisions…
While that bonus doesn't necessarily seem steep right off the bat, at least when juxtaposed with the commitments made to countrymen Yoenis Cespedes ($36MM), Yasiel Puig ($42MM), Jose Abreu ($68MM) and Rusney Castillo ($72.5MM), bear in mind that each of those players was viewed as a professional under baseball's collective bargaining agreement and therefore was not subject to international spending limitations.
Moncada, on the other hand, will be subject to spending limits, but executives that spoke with Passan still seemed to believe the price tag could approach $40MM. That would obliterate any team's bonus pool, and a signing team would have to pay a 100 percent luxury tax on all overages (in addition to subsequently being prohibited from spending more than $300K on a player in the next two signing periods). In that regard, then, a team would essentially be dropping $60-80MM to add Moncada to its farm system, based on the range Passan received in his poll of execs.
As Passan notes, Moncada has yet to be unblocked by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control or Major League Baseball, so the timeline for his arrival on the free agent market is uncertain, but the timing of his arrival is critical. If Moncada isn't declared a free agent until next year's signing period (the current signing period runs through June 15, 2015), the Angels, Yankees and Red Sox would not be able to sign him, as the penalties they've incurred prevent them from signing a player for more than $300K in the next two signing periods. If he's declared a free agent in the current signing period, the Rangers and Cubs, who exceeded their bonus pool in the 2013-14 signing period, would not be able to sign him.
Nearly every team was on-hand today in Guatemala to see a Moncada showcase, although Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register tweets that the Angels weren't there to see him (they've seen him in the past, Fletcher notes).
MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo spoke to multiple scouts who were on-hand, with one scout giving Moncada a 60 hit-tool, 60 power, 70 speed, a 60 arm and a 50 in terms of fielding (on the 20-80 scouting scale). A scouting director told Mayo that Moncada is "worth going way over your international spending pool," adding that the game is ultimately about talent, and Moncada "is the kind of talent worth the investment." Another touted his five-tool potential and said he was in great shape. Mayo hears that Moncada looked better at third and second than shortstop, though he has the arm to play any infield position. The Yankees, Red Sox, Braves and Cubs all had four or more scouts in attendance, per Mayo.
Those wishing to learn more about the potential phenom can check out this report on him from Baseball America's Ben Badler penned back in August.]]>
Last year's Opening Day payroll evidently does not set a ceiling for the team's spending, according to Rizzo. Asked where the club stood financially with a slate of guarantees and likely arbitration commitments that already push beyond last year's starting salary point, the Nats' head baseball decisionmaker told MLBTR: "There's nothing off the table, there's no restrictions. We're going to make good, prudent baseball moves … regardless of payroll."
At the start of last year, club ownership indicated that the $136MM+ budget was above where the organization wanted to be. But Rizzo said that the Nationals "have the flexibility to put the best club on the field."
Rizzo also preached a balance between present and future in assessing the possibility of trading from the current roster. Though he rejected last night's rumors that the Nats and Cubs were in talks on Jordan Zimmermann, he did say that the team is always willing to listen in an effort to improve.
The team does "not necessarily have to have a major league return on one of [the] 5+ [service-time] guys," Rizzo said, explaining that he would be looking for "the greatest impact that you can make with the players you trade, especially when you don't have to trade them." In terms of value maximization, Rizzo also emphasized the fact that several of the Nationals' 5+ players would likely be qualifying offer candidates next year.
Of course, players like Zimmermann, Ian Desmond, Doug Fister, and (to a much lesser extent, given the team's rising younger players) Denard Span all figure as extension candidates. I asked Rizzo about the equally impressive group of players coming behind those who are nearing free agency. The team has "a long-term outlook and a long-term plan," said Rizzo. "We've definitely thought about who and how and what players we should look into extending and we certainly have our plans in place to do what we need to do to protect the longevity and success of the franchise."]]>
While Cherington said he doesn't expect any signings from Boston by the end of the week, Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston.com tweets that Red Sox ownership has requested to meet with Lester's representatives at ACES personally, possibly as soon as this week. Beyond that, Sean McAdam of CSNNE.com hears from a source that Boston is willing to make an exception to its well-known aversion to significant investments in pitchers on the wrong side of 30 in order to bring Lester back into the fold. Meanwhile, Bruce Levine of 670thescore.com tweets that Lester will meet with the Cubs in Chicago sometime next week.
Last night, Jason Mastrodonato of MassLive.com reported that Lester is willing to sign at any time, whether it be within a matter of days or months, if a team presents an offer to his liking. The Yankees, reportedly, will not pursue Lester or any of the top three starters on the market.]]>
Here's some more from around the NL Central…
More from the NL East…
8:04pm: The Cubs are engaged with discussions with the Nationals to acquire right-handed starter Jordan Zimmermann, reports Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times. Talks are serious enough that the sides have exchanged names that would be involved, with at least one top young middle infielder likely to be part of the package.
Importantly, per Wittenmyer, Chicago would want to be able to ink Zimmermann to an extension in order to pull the trigger. The Relativity Baseball client is set to hit the open market after this season. He'll earn $16.5MM in his final year of arb eligibility, after agreeing to a back-loaded two year deal to avoid arbitration last year.
Zimmermann reportedly rejected a five-year, $85MM contract proposal from the Nats last year, and his value has only risen. Zimmermann, 28, threw to a 2.66 ERA over 199 2/3 frames in 2014, striking out 8.2 and walking a league-low 1.3 batters per nine. And that campaign brought him one year closer to free agency, reducing his risk and increasing his leverage in talks.
Zimmermann is, of course, not the only pitching option being pursued by Chicago. Wittenmyer says that Jon Lester is still a possibility, and the club is also chasing the kind of high-upside, high-risk arms it has in the past. Justin Masterson is one of those, per Wittenmyer, who says the righty could be amenable to a low-cost, one-year deal to rebuild his value. Per Chris Cotillo of MLBDailyDish.com (via Twitter), the team has had talks with Masterson, though nothing is close. Lefty Brett Anderson is another possibility, according to the Sun-Times report.
From the Nationals' perspective, there is obvious appeal in the Cubs' bevy of interesting, controllable middle infielders. Washington has an opening at second and has said it is interested in acquiring a shortstop option both for depth purposes and to provide an alternative to Ian Desmond, if he cannot be extended. Wittenmyer says the team feels comfortable with its staff even without Zimmermann, though I expect a free agent addition would be forthcoming if an arm is dealt.
While it is far too soon to speculate as to the pieces that might be included in a trade, the Cubs have several possible candidates that could be dangled. Starting shortstop Starlin Castro is signed to an attractive, yet pricey contract. And then there are heralded youngsters Javier Baez, Arismendy Alcantara, and Addison Russell.]]>
Here's more from around the NL Central…
Though Hunter turns 40 next July, he still enjoyed a productive season at the plate in a fairly pitcher-friendly home environment, hitting .286/.319/.446 with 17 homers in 586 plate appearances. His defensive game, however, appears to have slipped as Defensive Runs Saved pegged him at -18 runs and Ultimate Zone Rating agreed (-18.3).
Given his age, I'd think Hunter's priority would be signing with a team he expects to contend in 2015 rather than maxing out his contract or perhaps making a sentimental return to his former Minneapolis stomping grounds.]]>
Initially, it appeared that the Pirates might pull out all the stops to re-sign Martin. The club is thin at catcher with Tony Sanchez and Chris Stewart occupying the top of the depth chart. While the need for Martin is obvious, the ever-increasing rumored cost might push them out of the market.
The Cubs and Dodgers are a better financial fit, since we know both teams can afford Martin at any reasonable cost. They have a decent internal options – Wellington Castillo for the Cubs and A.J. Ellis for the Dodgers – so they're not desperate for a backstop in the same way as the Pirates. The Cubs recently dismissed a well-regarded manager to hire Joe Maddon, so a similar move at catcher is easy to picture. The Dodgers are supposed to be more financially responsible with Andrew Friedman at the reins. We'll see if and how that affects their pursuit of Martin.
From the outside, the Blue Jays look like a dark horse candidate, although catcher has been an area of concern since they traded away prospect Travis d'Arnaud. Dioner Navarro and Josh Thole are currently under contract to man the position, but neither player is close to Martin's talent level.
Of course, the infamous mystery team could rear its head. A few clubs who could conceivably join the fray include the Angels, Tigers, Rangers, Mariners, White Sox, and Nationals.]]>
Incumbent Cubs catcher Welington Castillo struggled with his offense and framing last year, and the big-market Cubs have money to spend, so it's unsurprising they would have interest in Martin. In Los Angeles, catcher A.J. Ellis hit just .191/.323/.254 last season, and the Dodgers' new saber-friendly front office will likely place a high value on Martin, particularly given his work behind the plate. The Jays have had internal discussions about pursuing Martin and making current starting catcher Dioner Navarro their primary DH.]]>

Question & Answers
kaos and his stealth elf
Are there any cheats plz tell me also i cant get past the level with kaos and his stealth elf?
Answer from: NiceGuy1
Don't think there are any cheats, per se. It's designed for kids, the concept of cheating in games is something older gamers do. There are glitches, however, both good and bad. Like the glitch that doesn't allow you to reach the Enemy Goal on some levels, or that Sonic Boom's babies count towards the Enemy Goal, which is how to get past that.
As for Kaos and his Stealth Elf, it's been a while, but as I remember... Stealth Elf charges at you, then when close leaps at you. The key is that she does this in an absolutely straight line, just dodge. So if she's charging straight down the screen at you, just move a step to the left or right. Then turn around and attack her as she lands. Repeat. In between minions during this fight, you get a Death Spell which consists of red lobster-things leading a trail of bubbles which hurt you. Destroy the lobsters, the bubbles pop. Simple.

Cospedal apuesta por "un gran pacto" para cambiar el sistema de elección de los alcaldes
María Dolores de Cospedal,secretaria general del PP, considera "una barbaridad" que en las elecciones municipales el juego de alianzas" en ocasiones impida que el candidato más votado sea el que se erige como alcalde.En este sentido, ha apostado por crear "un gran pacto" junto al PSOE para "dar a los ciudadanos esa garantía de que su voto sí cuenta y sí sirve". La 'número dos' del partido del Gobierno ha hecho estas afirmaciones en la clausura en San Sebastián de un foro de debate del partido abierto a la participación de ponentes no afiliados bajo el título '¿Nos representan?'. Cospedal también se ha referido a la lucha contra la crisis y el desempleo. "demninguna manera nos vamos a dar por vencidos, de ninguna manera vamos a permitir que nos derroten y de ninguna manera vamos a caer en el fatalismo", ha remarcado.

The player's agent said earlier this week that Premiership side Arsenal have made contact with him, while Real Betis, Internazionale and Paris Saint Germain have also been linked with the Nantes captain.
Landreau is expected to leave France at the end of the season for a new challenge, and is eager to experience UEFA Champions League football.
Milan have now emerged as the leading candidates to capture the keeper, who would provide cover for 32-year-old current number one Dida.

Here are the facts regarding Maximum Hedrum as we know them: Sam Spiegel (Squeak E. Clean, NASA) and Derrick Green's (Sepultura) partnership started nearly a half-decade ago with a chance encounter at a dodgy dive bar that both members call "among São Paulo's finest." Shortly after their first drink together, Spiegel relocated to Los Angeles and kept in touch with his newfound friend through a series of letters and mixtapes carried via ones and zeros, flesh, and feathers. Inspired by their mutual love of vintage leisure suits, inexplicable corners of the Internet, and "Camille"-era Prince, Spiegel invited Green to Los Angeles to contribute his death metal-worthy scream to an album he was producing for the Australian band, The Bumblebeez.
What Spiegel didn't expect was Green's secret weapon: a Barry-White-does-Devo croon voice (as so many critics are now wont to describe as such). While goofing around in the studio late at night, they put together their first slow jam, a steamy ode to technology and 'getting down' titled "Robosexual." The song not only kicked off the project, but also set its tone. A down and dirty place for exploring sexual deviancy and playful perverseness, coupled with a burgeoning robot obsession, a high octane electro-funk pairing known as "Maximum Hedrum" was officially born.
Recorded in Prague, São Paulo, and Los Angeles, the duo's debut benefited not only from a worldwide network, but also from plenty of time to develop. "The collaboration of so many people helped us build this," says Green. "It took its time, but slowly got there. So many crazy places."
Confirmation of their efforts came in the form of a blessing by funk's alien lord and king, George Clinton (long may he reign). Clinton, a friend of Spiegel after collaborating with him on his previous project, the all-star collaboration-heavy hip-hop group called "N.A.S.A.," invited himself into the studio on one sweltering Los Angeles-summer day resulting the birth of "Keep in Touch." (Isaac Hayes proved to be somewhat less energetic and accommodating during a similar off-the-cuff session. His contributions were eventually scrapped.)
Shortly after, Spiegel directed a video for "Keep in Touch." Featuring a young adult with cerebral palsy getting in touch with his sexual side…and then being arrested for dallying with a prostitute.
Spiegel and Green note that there's more where that came from—although both have committed to reading the full works of robo-spiritualist Ray Kurzweil before proceeding with future recording sessions. While we wait, the band plans for tour dates in the U.S. and around the world, and will be releasing additional music videos and remixes in the coming months. Stay tuned…and stay dancing.

To the Editor:
Re ''Executing the Mentally Retarded Even as Laws Begin to Shift'' (front page, Aug. 7):
Clearly, the abolition of the death penalty for people with mental retardation is a goal of the international community and is emerging as a customary norm of international human rights law. Yet the United States, a self-labeled champion of human rights, continues to disregard the almost universal prohibition against executing people with mental retardation. In the United States, 25 states permit the execution of people with mental retardation, and 34 mentally retarded defendants have been executed since 1976.
Amnesty International believes that while a person must be held responsible for his or her actions, the execution of an individual who suffers from mental retardation is a gross violation of international human rights standards.
New York, Aug. 8, 2000
The writer is acting director of the Program to Abolish the Death Penalty, Amnesty International USA.

I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but I found it on a food blogger's site, and she said she got it from the Bouchon Bakery in CA. Suffice to say it is THE best peanut butter cookie I have ever had -- and I'm a real connoisseur. Don't faint when you read the ingredients. YES -- it calls for 4 sticks of butter! Just don't tell people that as they moan with delight, enjoying your peanut buttery creations! It'll be our little secret... Notes: I generally eyeball (not measure) the peanut butter, so I probably use more than 2/3 cup. Use crunchy PB if you like; you can also add some chopped up peanuts at the end if you like REALLY crunchy cookies. The original recipe called for these to be peanut butter sandwich cookies (like homemade nutter butters), but I actually think that sandwiching them with peanut butter icing is overkill because they're SO decadent and big already. But I've included that info in case you want to give it a whirl.

Score from 873 reviews Very good
* Near the venue where I was attending a conference * Helped with the airport shuttle service
* Internet horrible (very important as I was on business) * Location: far away from anything but the venue of the conference
Service Customer friendly
The hotel, staff, area and room were top notched. We enjoyed our stay and the hotel was very helpful with a quided bus tours to Vatican and Coloseum. The neighbourhood was safe and clean with lots of great resturants.
I did not like anything I tried 3 hotels in rooms this was nightmare
Wifi disconnect every second/ there is no wifi Beds is not comfort Breakfast is limited and poor Location of hotel is not good In general bad hotel
Nice rooms, tea/coffee making facilities in the room, water in the fridge for free, excellent breakfast on the 5th floor.
The hotel is quite faraway from the centre.
Nice small rooms Good breakfast with a view Very helpful and nice staff
Location. Tram located at end of the street which was only a few stops to Flaminio. The Flaminio Metro is located beside the Tram. As not in main tourist area the price was very reasonable compared to hotels in the city centre.
The staff was very attentive and friendly. On the day of my departure, because it was an early departure, without asking, I was given a food pack. This was very thoughtful!!! It was very close to the main attractions and I found it easy to get around from Best Western Astrid.
The air conditioner did not work functionally (was cooling the room down, but not enough)
Location good, out of main centre but only 4 tram stops away , about 10 mins to the edge of the attractions. Reception staff helpful, bedroom was large, 3 of us sharing but plenty of room. Good choice at breakfast .
When items ran out at breakfast not replaced by the staff without asking. One morning no saucers, no spoons, no bowls no Orange juice . They did give you items when asked but need to keep a closer eye on things .
Location is ideal to access Rome via tram and car.Terrific wine bar and restaurants (Tree house). Safe and quiet. Better to stay at Face to Face hotel around the corner
Elevator is appalling, breakfast average and staff did not seem very enthusiastic.
Very close to public transport.
Supremely helpful staff with regards to lending bicycles and organising car hire. Lovely views.
No complaints.
location very good
Room very small, not what we were expecting, not shown to be as small in picture, but ok as we only used it as a base
Bike available to borrow, nice location on the river. Good staff.
Very small shower but not a major issue.
Liked the hotel location and friendly staff. They are very helpful and very close to the tramp station where you could take it Flamino and take the bus or metro to any place you need to go. Remember to get Roma bus and metro passes for 1.5 euro each valid for one metro trip and any bus or tramp for 100 mints from 1st trip. The shops close by 6:30pm so you need to get them before that.
Toilets are very small. Breakfast is limited to boiled eggs, 2 cold meats and 1 kind of cheese.
The view from the breakfast room is spectacular! Good breakfast. Very helpful staff at reception.
The location is great. The hotel is a little far away from Rome's landmarks but you can go there walking or by taking the tram. It is located in a very nice residential area and close to the Tevere river. The minibar was free, and that was a nice surprise.
The room was small. We traveled with our baby and the crib left little room to move.
The staff was excellent! We also enjoyed the location because it was just north of the very touristy areas of Rome so we experienced meals at night with lots of locals at more authentic restaurants instead of tons of tourists. The Metro system was just a very short tram ride away to connect to anywhere we wanted to go. If you like running, there is a trail on the Tiber just outside of the hotel. The free breakfast was a great plus too!
The Wi-Fi was very flaky. It disconnected a lot and was a pain to log into constantly just to view a website if we wanted to look up information on activities or tourist sites. Because we loved everything else about this hotel, we would deal with the bad Wi-Fi...the positives outweigh this one small negative.
We upgraded to a superior room and it had everything to make our stay comfortable: Spotless cleanliness, a really comfortable bed and pillows, nice shower and bathroom, a kettle with complimentary tea and coffee and even a minibar with a free daily refill of bottled water. At request, you can get anything else you might need, like an iron or extra amenities for the bathroom. The staff was super friendly, specially the girls at the Front Desk, Marie and Alessia.
For being a superior room, we found it a little small (yet cozy) and it only had view into an inner yard so you could see each other with other guests who had their windows open (bummer). Even though I can't fault the hotel's location, its kinda hard to be reached since you depend solely on the tramway from Piazza del Popolo, so sometimes we were forced to do up to 3 changes to get back to the hotel, a little tiring after a long day walking throughout Rome and the least thing you wanna do is to struggle with the confusing Roman transportation system.
Near to the sport club which we had a jiujitsu competition. Free wifi. Fair breakfast
The rooms are small and small toilet. A/c is off in april and my room has no street view so air entering to my room, it was very hot. Nothing important thing around the hotel ( far from the down town).
We stayed at the hotel Astrid for two nights and we were very impressed by the whole experience. The hotel is outside the main city centre but we managed to get into the centre in 10 minutes via a tram which is two minutes walk from the hotel. With it being outside the centre you do not pay the high prices they charge and we found it a nice experience to take the tram in the morning which seem to run every 5 minutes and only cost €1.50. The hotel has lovely rooms overlooking the river which were spacious and very clean. Breakfast was very good and the views from the breakfast room delightful. The staff were helpful and attentive and there are some excellent local restaurants in the surrounding streets. I would definitely recommend this hotel and would gladly stay there again when I return.
breakfasts were very good, staff were all helpful and very friendly and obliging,view from breakfast room was very memorable.local restaurants good and varied. we even liked the characterful lift!Local roads quiet at night.
Good hotel with small but sufficient breakfast. Nice view from the Breakfast room Easy to reach from Plaza del Popolo by foot (20 min. ) or by tram (Four stations).
The greatest thing about Hotel Astrid is clearly the free mountain bikes. They can get you around all of Rome in a couple of hours!! Walking is cozy but takes ages! If you are familiar with riding a bike in a greater city its perfect! Just remember lights for the bike.. There is approx. 9 km from the hotel to Sct. Peters church and back which is a nice morning run along the river. You can also run in the "Borghese" garden nearby.. Highly recommendable!! The staff, accommodation and cleaning are all fine, but the bikes is what have made us pick that hotel this second time..
The breakfast coffee is not very good… I would rather have instant coffee if it was available but had to put up with some kind of Polish "coffee"… Maybe leftovers from the war…? Also, I find it strange that all breakfasts in Rome consists of 50% cakes.. Even the "regular" croissants are sprinkled with sugar!?! But hey.. if that is the only negative things there is to say… then the hotel is not so bad!! Right?
Good location, friendly, helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Clean hotel.
Shower so too small. Just for a child to fit in.

text: Politico reports President Barack Obama Friday reinforced the perception that a New York Times journalist won't be thrown in jail for refusing to identify his confidential sources for a book that allegedly contained highly classified information provided by a Central Intelligence Agency officer. Asked at a press conference here about the longrunning case involving Times national security reporter James Risen, Obama said he couldn't comment on any pending matter but he pointed to comments Attorney General Eric Holder has made ruling out jailing of journalists for resisting efforts to force them to identify sources. "I can read back to you what Attorney General [Eric] Holder said which is no journalist is going to go to jail for doing their job," the president said. He called the treatment of national security issues and press rights a "balance." He added : "We've got courts and the First Amendment and a whole bunch of tools to ensure that balance is properly debated and adjudicated."
