Do you know what a web counter is?
Never heard the word web counter or don't have a clue what I am talking about? Don't worry many members of law enforcement, prosecutors, attorneys and even marketing professionals often have no idea what a web counter is-at least until they consult with me.
A web counter is a cool tech tool that helps keep track all incoming web traffic including posts and activity of even the most heinous cyberstalkers, and even better is the fact the majority of web counters available today are free and that is great news especially during these difficult economic times.
As a survivor of cyberstalking and traditional stalking, I know how easy it is to become a victim today, but luckily there are tools that make catching a cyberstalker a bit easier.
You can read about my story and cyberstalking in the series I wrote on the topic for about.com women's issues.
A web counter is a very powerful tool for victims. Web counters play an important role for risk management and particularly for safety planning purposes. They also work well to collect evidence.
Be proactive
Keep in mind, not all law enforcement agencies, attorneys, crime victim advocates or even tech professionals will think of utilizing this tool (sadly), but without a doubt it should be included within every cyberstalking victim tool kit.
Many web sites have web counter features built in that can be accessed by 3rd parties for evidence collection, but a victim or risk management consultant will have to be proactive and inquire about this further rather than rely on an agency or web host to provide this information voluntarily.
Many just don't think of it or have no idea how valuable the information is to catch a cyberstalker.
Web counters valuable for more than cyberstalking detection
The majority of business professionals today face the inevitable challenge of wanting to attract an on-line following in order to compete at a higher level in the marketplace while still having some safe guards in place just in case cyber trouble starts- a web counter can do this very easily.
One way bloggers and web hosts can manager their cyber safety a bit easier is by installing a web counter. Even better news is that there are many free web counters out there. Easy Counter, Stat Counter, Digits, Pax there are literally hundreds of these that help track blog traffic including the entry and exit points, comments left, city and state of entry, IP address and duration.
The "take away" point
Web counters: A free tool that will help you discover valuable marketing information that is vital for business success today and also help track and record the actions of stalkers and cyberstalkers.

Weekend matchups against Illinois, Michigan State, Iowa and Maryland at Pinnacle Bank Arena highlight the Huskers' 2014-15 Big Ten schedule, as the Big Ten Conference unveiled its complete conference slate Thursday evening on BTN Live.
Nebraska, which finished fourth in the Big Ten with an 11-7 mark in 2013-14, will face a challenging slate as 12 of its 18 Big Ten contests are against teams which reached postseason last year, including a pair of matchups with Final Four qualifier Wisconsin.
The Badgers are one of the Huskers' five opponents Nebraska will face twice this year in the Big Ten schedule, joining Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois and newcomer Maryland. The Huskers will face the other eight teams, including Elite Eight qualifiers Michigan and Michigan State, once apiece.
The Huskers were 8-1 in Big Ten play at Pinnacle Bank Arena in 2013-14, its best conference showing since a perfect 7-0 mark during the 1965-66 season.
The conference schedule commences on New Year's Eve, as the Huskers open Big Ten action against Indiana in the only matchup between the two schools. It marks the first time since the 2011-12 season that Nebraska has opened conference play at home. The Indiana contest begins a stretch where Nebraska will play three of its first four games at PBA, including tilts with Big Ten newcomer Rutgers (Jan. 8) and Illinois (Jan. 11).
The game against Illinois starts a run of six straight games against postseason qualifiers to end the month of January, including games at Wisconsin (Jan. 15), at Michigan (Jan. 27, 6 p.m., ESPN) and a home matchup against Michigan State (Jan. 24). Nebraska will face NIT champion Minnesota twice within a two-week span, hosting the Gophers on Tuesday, Jan. 20, before traveling to Minneapolis on Saturday, Jan. 31.
The second half of Big Ten action begins on Tuesday, Feb. 3, as the Huskers welcome Northwestern to Pinnacle Bank Arena. The month of February also features a Super Tuesday showdown with Wisconsin (Feb. 10, 8 p.m., ESPN) as well as visit from Iowa (Feb. 22) along with road trips to Penn State (Feb. 7), Purdue (Feb. 15), Maryland (Feb. 19) and Ohio State (Feb. 26).
The Huskers, who play four of their final six games away from Pinnacle Bank Arena, travel to Illinois for their final Big Ten road game on Wednesday, March 4, before hosting Maryland on Senior Day on Sunday, March 8.
The 14-team conference also features an expanded Big Ten Tournament, which returns to Chicago for 2015. The event starts with a pair of first-round games on Wednesday, March 11, at the United Center and concludes on Sunday, March 15, just prior to the NCAA Tournament selection announcement.
The Huskers return all five starters, including All-Big Ten selections Terran Petteway and Shavon Shields, from a team which went 19-13 last year and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1998, Coach Tim Miles enters his third season at Nebraska after being named the 2014 Big Ten Coach of the Year.
Start times and television information, except the two games announced previously by ESPN, will be released by Big Ten in September. All conference games are nationally televised on the Big Ten's television partners. The ticket renewal process is underway for current season ticket holders, while UNL students have already purchased all of the seats in the Red Zone for the 2014-15 season.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - An Oklahoma man received no prison time after pleading guilty to two counts of first-degree manslaughter in the death of his pregnant wife.
Justin Adams entered the plea Wednesday in the death of his wife, Jaymie Adams. He received two 10-year suspended sentences and was released from custody under a plea deal reached with prosecutors.
Adams was initially charged with first-degree murder in his wife's death, but prosecutors later reduced that to manslaughter. Authorities alleged that Jaymie Adams was engaging in prostitution and that Justin Adams contributed to his wife's death by driving her to meet a client on the night she was killed.
Another man, Joseph Cyr, is now charged with murder in Jaymie Adams' death.
Justin Adams declined to comment after Wednesday's proceedings.

Those wondering what Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be driving next year when he begins a five-year contract with Hendrick Motorsports have an answer. Earnhardt Jr. will leave his famous No. 8 car sponsored by Budweiser behind and pick up the No. 88 next season. His main sponsor will now be Mountain Dew, along with Amp Energy drink and the National Guard, while Budweiser will be jumping ship to sponsor Kasey Kahne's car for Evernham Motorsports.
Though many wanted to see Earnhardt Jr.'s No. 8 follow him to Hendrick Motorsports, DEI owner Teresa Earnhardt, also Earnhardt Jr.'s step-mom, wouldn't give it up. The No. 88 has historical significance for the Earnhardt family too, though, as Jr.'s grandfather, Ralph Earnhardt, drove the No. 88 Oldsmobile back in 1957. The No. 88 was donated to Earnhardt Jr. in a selfless act by Robert Yates Racing, who asked NASCAR to transfer the retired number to Earnhardt Jr.'s new ride to keep the legacy alive.

and I had a couple of questions.
The instructor, after showing us the difference between a revolver and a semi-auto, went through the Florida Statutes (not ALL of them, thank God!).
He specifically mentioned that we could NOT shoot someone who had broken into our residence unless we are in fear for our lives/great bodily harm. But, in reading the statutes later, 776.013(4) says "A person who unlawfully and by force enters or attempts to enter a person's dwelling, residence, or occupied vehicle is presumed to be doing so with the intent to commit an unlawful act involving force or violence."
And, 776.08, the section on Forcible Felonies, specifically lists "home-invasion robbery, robbery, burglary" among others.
What am I missing?

Defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier supervised in his absence, and Childress was back at the team's headquarters in the afternoon. The Vikings have a brief practice Friday that's closed to reporters before traveling to Seattle for an exhibition game Saturday night against the Seahawks.
"He asked me just to kind of oversee things, making sure things were going fine," Frazier said, adding: "We've got enough leadership on this football team where guys stood up and just made sure that there was no drop-off."
Defensive tackle Fred Evans returned to the team on Thursday after missing the last week. He had a court appearance in Miami, where he pleaded no contest and avoided jail time for fighting with police officers earlier this summer. The incident occurred before he was cut by the Dolphins and signed with the Vikings. Frazier said he planned to give Evans some playing time in Seattle.
Safety Mike Doss (calf) was the most notable name among five players who didn't practice Thursday. Childress said he wouldn't play against the Seahawks.

Peter Syrus, lecturer at the Northern College of Music in Manchester, is a well known and much appreciated conductor of early music events for amateurs. As usual, he had a great collection of pieces (set by himself using computer software) with much variety, despite being by one composer. Peter made the point that many people focus on the 16th and early 17th centuries of Renaissance music, but there is much great music from the 14th and 15th centuries.
Heinrich Isaac is perhaps less well known than some of that period, for example Josquin des Prez, yet he composed some of the greatest music of that time. Born in Flanders, Isaac then spent most of his life in Italy and what is now Germany and Austria. In 1485 he is recorded as a singer at S Giovani in Florence. In 1496 he found new employment with Maximillian I, king of the Romans, following political upheavals in Florence. By 1502 he was back in Florence and retained his contacts there until his death in 1517, though he spent time composing at the court of Maximillian at Konstanz.
The music was for 4, 5 and 6 parts. Mostly Peter kept the instruments in a separate choir from the singers with the viols on one side and the blowers (recorders and curtals plus occasional sackbut and cornett) on the other. The 36 participants soon discovered what Peter described as the instrumental writing, typical of the low countries, with wonderful lines and rhythms. We worked at the Kyrie and Sanctus sections of the "Missa Comme femme desconfortée" (4 part) and Missa Paschale" (6 part). The other pieces we tackled during the day were: "Angeli, Archangeli" (6 part), "Quis dabit capiti meo aquam" (4 part), "Regina caeli laetare" (5 part) and "Tota pulchra es, amica mea" (4 part).
As often happens on such days, the quality improved after a while, especially for a large ensemble of curtals. Given the relatively short time available, the group produced some impressive performances and clearly everyone enjoyed themselves.The venue is a fairly new one for SWEMF, and very good it is too, with a moderately large hall plus kitchen, loos and parking that make for a comfortable day. The under-floor heating not only made the hall pleasant for us, but kept the instruments warm (more than expected). The SWEMF AGM was held during the lunch break and had a good attendance, while those not in SWEMF were able to eat their lunch in the sun outside.
Finally, we must thank Stella Worrall for yet another well organised event.
Alan Hayward
This workshop took place in the University of Bristol Music Department, housed in the building at the top of Queen's Road, and personally I feel grateful to David Adams for arranging the day and allowing a view of the interior – oh yes, and a wonderful musical experience. We arrived early and made the acquaintance of a friendly porter at the desk, to find that the inside of the building was not oppressively heavy but very charming in detail, though sadly shabby. There are winding corridors downstairs round a central concert hall, and upstairs a wide skylight that must have leaked a lot in winter, to judge by the carpet below. Apparently the place was designed for music; according to Google, Jenny Lind sang there in her days of glory. David Allinson was obviously at home in the building having worked there for the past two years, and when we had brought each work to a singable standard, we trooped out to a room shaped like a bell or circular well to hear the sound resound round about us more satisfactorily.
The composer chiefly studied was Manuel Cardoso, praised enthusiastically for the craft that went to the construction of the Requiem fr Six Voices, making it a straightforward, simple and beautiful piece. Beside the Mass we sang some of Cardoso's penitential motets which powerfully expressed sorrow and in this reminded me of the intensely sad Robert White Lamentations we sang in Glastonbury a while back.
And what of the direction? To my mind David bears comparison with Philip Thorby – I can say no more! Full of energy and burning with enthusiasm; skilful, tactful, very funny and only learned when relevant. I wish he was still in the Exeter area. His next appointment is in Canterbury Christchurch University as director of music … and I hope his next pupils and colleagues appreciate him.

By nine o'clock in the morning, the little harbour-side church of St John in West Bay was already filling with instrumentalists and singers arriving for a day of French music 16C-18C organised by Paula Biss and directed by Mike Bailey. An hour later, over forty participants had arrived through the morning mist for a day working on music from Janequin to Charpentier.
We warmed up with a gentle Pavane, composed by Thoinot Arbeau, a scholar of dance and musician of the late 16C whose music epitomised the grace and precision both of the text and the dance itself. Mike seemed sufficiently well-pleased with our efforts to move on to a much more challenging task, "Le chant des Oyseaux" composed several decades earlier by Clement Janequin who delighted in creating musical effects. As the title suggests, we were called upon to imitate a whole dawn chorus - doves, nightingales, cuckoos and several lesser species! We trilled and tutted with all our might, and rolled our "rrrs" with gusto! Instruments too warbled and tooted as owls and thrushes joined the chorus.This must have been to some effect, as our audience later commented that we were quite clearly attempting to be birds! Whether this was a result of the helpful explanations given to them by Mike before the piece, or a true reflection of our mastery of French consonants, I wouldn't like to say!
A totally different theme came later - music written again by Janequin - with a piece entitled "Martin menait son porceau au marche." This was far more down-to earth in every sense! Workshop participants, and later the audience, were very amused to learn of the difficulties poor Martin had in securing his pig while enjoying the delights of his pretty companion, Alix, on the way to market. Again, the music bore Janequin's musical hallmarks, and the rhythmic line, culminating in Alix's cries of "serre, Martin!" (hang on, Martin!) was quite dramatic! The audience was left in no doubt of the gravity of his situation!
Everyone enjoyed the Charpentier extracts from the Te Deum - Prelude and Pleni sunt caeli after lunch and we achieved a good sound. The afternoon session closed with the inspiring "Ave Verum Corpus" by Charpentier. This beautiful music, with its moving harmonies so in tune with the text, allowed the band full scope. The lyrical interludes between singing lines were played with a very fine touch, and we truly felt we had performed the work of one of the masters of sacred vocal harmony.
Many thanks go to Mike Bailey for his skill, patience and leadership, and to Paula, who is stepping down from the organisation of such events, after ten years of giving us all these opportunities to enjoy this wonderful music.
Jenny Ellis
Approximately 30 players and singers met for this workshop in Thorverton. Clare Griffel is not only the SWEMF Chairperson, a knowledgeable and entertaining director but also a superb singer (as she showed when demonstrating some of the trickier corners in the Dowland part songs).
Clare started by dispelling many of the myths of Dowland "semper dolens", giving a short history of his life in Tudor England and in Denmark under Christian IV and providing us with a selection of his part songs to illustrate his various moods and methods of working. Although many of the songs were originally for lute or other stringed instruments, it was financially more successful to add voices. We sang and played songs from Book 1 which were instrumental with fairly simple 4 voice parts added. In the second book the songs are more complex and the vocal parts are more independent. In the third book, the vocal parts are more madrigalian and polyphonic. The songs are in similar keys as lutes do not transpose into a variety of keys.
Clare encouraged us to sing / play them in various combinations of voice and instrument which gave a wonderful diversity to the day. The scores she provided were modern but we also experimented with singing one song from parts as would have been common practice. This was fine for the sopranos who had the tune but caused some problems for lower voices. Of course, instrumentalists frequently play from parts and so this was not an issue for them. She also introduced us to 10 precepts from the Micrologus of Andreas Ornithoparcus which Dowland translated;an idiosyncratic and entertaining list of instructions for singers. We tried very hard not to bray like asses thereafter. One issue arose during the day which it might be useful for the Committee / members to discuss. After the first break, Clare said that she'd been told that she was talking too much and so would concentrate on directing the music thereafter.
There may be a difference of expectations here. Some participants enjoy these workshops because we learn about composers and their social, musical and political milieu as well as dipping into the music. It obviously helps when the discussion is as entertaining as Clare's. Others obviously love to sing and play as much as possible. I'm not sure what the answer is; do we just muddle along and let the Director lead the workshop as s/he sees fit or should workshops be advertised as either performance only or as a wider educational day?
However, this was a really enjoyable and educational workshop. The venue is lovely and many thanks to Mary Thomas and her band of helpers for organising the day so successfully.
Christine Tully
The addition of madrigals was a good idea; it made the day longer and the journey more worthwhile, though that is certainly not to suggest that the main workshop would not have been worth coming to. It was also the first time I have sung madrigals with SWEMF, which I was glad to do: yes we were a larger group than is recommended but not that many people are lucky enough to sing madrigals regularly.
In an interesting attempt to get us to sing as one, Venetia mentioned French practices for singing groups; apparently sight reading is thought to be beyond amateurs but there is more emphasis on technique. This made me think of English choirs who could do with more technique, but since not many younger people are joining standard choral societies now, it is possible that technical practice might put them off.
Because there was a yoga class in the main hall, we spent some of the morning downstairs in a room Venetia described as cosy, (jam packed), but actually we might not have sung any better elsewhere and madrigals are meant to be intimate. The first we tackled were John Bennet's 'Weep O mine Eyes' and Wilbye's 'Lady when I behold', at which point our spies reported that the yoga class was gone and we were released into the sunny spacious upper room (pretty curtains!). There we made our way through Thomas Tomkins' 'Music Divine' and Byrd's 'Lullaby, my sweet little Baby', which were more difficult: I ended the Byrd without having made much musical sense of it, sadly, because Byrd is magnificant, but there isn't time for detailed study on a workshop. Last was the very charming 'Sweet Suffolk Owle' by Vautor.
The Victoria Mass after lunch was a lovely experience; its unity and repose made me think of a deep slow flowing river and imagine that the composer must have a firm religious faith. Tony's beat was smooth and expressive and he piloted us through with no trouble, surprised so he said that we managed to get through the whole work, and satisfied with the sound we made. The first tenors struggled a little being few in number, and the Lydian mode tripped us up at times, being so near to the usual Ionian with one little difference.
A few notes on works and composers: Bennet's sad and very beautiful 'Weep O mine Eyes' was founded on Dowland's melancholy falling phrase, and at points the music suggested tears or sighs where it surged and fell in waves; 'to swell so high that I may drown me in you'. It was a good choice to start with.
Wilbye is said to have dealt skilfully with the interplay of words and musical rhythms and to have paid close attention to the quality of lyrics (in both senses), though this one, a standard comparison of his mistress' lips to roses, seemed to me overblown. He came from a farming family and did well by his patrons, who leased him a profitable sheep farm in Suffolk, and if there were owles in his barns he didn't consider putting them into madrigals.
Thomas Tomkins was Welsh. He came late in the era of madrigal writers and lived through the civil war to a time when his style was becoming outdated. His madrigal writing is often serious, in contrast to the very frivolous pieces produced by some contemporaries. This is a high minded work with I think a slap at the end to those who do not take love seriously – though that may not be his meaning.
The text of the Byrd is simple and rather rustic and runs to several verses; I was reminded of folk carols and trying to imagine the difficulty of memorising that many words to such complex music – the text was at the end and not underlaid. The lyric seemed appropriate because to my mind it is the vivid energising folk element that often peers through his music that makes it so moving and powerful.
Vautor's most famous madrigal is this one; it is indeed a sweet and lively work with music to match the slightly satirical lyric. 'Thy note, that out so freely rolls, with shrill command the mouse controls, and sings a dirge for dying souls' made me wonder whether the dirge was for mice or men, and thus reminded me of a Victorian song about burying pets in the garden that was one of the songs my grandmother taught me; it was by Victoria Horatia Ewing and the line that came back was 'muffle the dinner bell, mournfully ring'. It is worth a google; slightly satirical in a different way.
The Victoria Mass was written at a time when the regular performance of masses was still considered necessary to save the souls of the dead; it was dedicated to the Empress Maria, sister to Philip of Spain, whose chaplain he had been for many years. Victoria was a priest as well as a composer, and may have studied under Palestrina. According to one writer the work shows 'an utter suavity of harmonic and melodic gesture' and I dare say it does, but it was a rare experience to be able to sing it for which I am grateful to all concerned, including the tea maker who has not yet had a mention!

Peter Leech is an award-winning conductor and musicologist,specializing in the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. His current interest is the music of the exiled Stuart court, which was based in Rome from 1719. The composers were under the patronage of Bonnie Prince Charlie's brother, Prince Henry Benedict Stuart, who was a Cardinal. About 30 singers and a band of string players attended the workshop, using manuscripts which had been beautifully and clearly hand copied by Peter, and it felt a privilege to be bringing this music to life that has so long been forgotten.
The depth of Peter's knowledge and his immersion in the subject only enhanced the day, and the balance between music-making and historical context was perfect. We were invited to imagine a Rome with over 1200 hundred parishes, each with its own church and organ, many with two choirs. Wealthy patrons indulged their interest in art, music and architecture.
The composers we looked at were: Costanzi (1704–07), Bolis (1750–1804), Jommelli (1714–74) and Giorgi (1700–62). Bolis was very enjoyable to sing, using chromatics a bit like Rossini in the Petite Messe Solennelle, which would put him well ahead of his time! Some of Jommelli's writing was reminiscent of Pergolesi in his Stabat Mater, and it is known that these two did meet. Peter had with him a recording he has made with Harmonia Sacra of some of these works, which is about to be released (Nimbus Alliance NI 6273). The music was very accessible for reading and enjoying within the time frame. The numbers were well balanced and the singers were appropriate to historical choir size, apparently! We played and sang through everything twice, but gave no 'performance' at the end of the afternoon.
The venue gave us slight problems. The music school hall is not easy to find if you enter from Victoria Park Road. Entering from Manston Terrace the music hall is just on the right, with a car park, so maybe this address should be used in future. The water heater for coffee was a bit unpredictable, but otherwise all was well with delicious, viol-shaped biscuits provided by Heather Gibbard as refreshments. Thank you to Clare Griffel and her helpers for organizing a most enjoyable day, and for inserting a briskly conducted AGM into the lunchtime slot, with almost no interruption to the musical element of the day.

Nestling by the harbour, the low, whitewashed St John's Church, bathed in sunshine, was again our home for the day. This was the first West Bay day organised by Wendy Carnell since taking over from Paula Biss. Almost immediately, Wendy was plunged into a crisis when an electrical fault put the sockets out of action: absolute
no possibility of boiling a kettle; no tea or coffee. How would we survive! Thanks to Paula's flash of inspiration, a deal was negotiated with The Harbour Café to supply take-away hot drinks.
Equilibrium restored, we settled down to the serious business of the day, an excellent workshop directed by Mike Bailey, exploring the influence of the Italian Baroque in Germany, 1570–1670. Mike had undertaken considerable research on the German composers whose works we were studying, and provided concise biographies of their professional lives. The majority had studied in Italy, specifically in Venice, where Giovanni Gabrieli had been a significant influence. Also helpful was Mike's time-line of the principal composers of the period, including those whose works he had selected for the day, covering the years from the birth of Martin Luther (1483) to the death of Samuel Scheidt (1654). Most of the repertoire for the day was in German.
Mike gave advice on pronunciation, favouring a harder, North German sound. He also gave tips on the Latin of the sacred pieces. We got off to a confident start in the Renaissance with Ein' feste Berg, Martin Agricola's 4-part harmonization (probably the first to be written) of Martin Luther's chorale based on Psalm 46. Warned in advance that the occasional drinking song would feature, we then tackled Caspar Othmayr's Vidi alios intrantes – Da truncken Sie. The bilingual title was deliberate. The tenors sang cheerfully in German of a convivial evening of singing, drinking, eating and unbridled enjoyment. The sopranos, altos and basses, however, were thoroughly disapproving and sang sternly in Latin of the noise, mess and pile of fish bones. A case of two interpretations of the same event!
Early Baroque composers featured included Hassler, both Michael and Jacob (the younger) Praetorius, and the trio of Schütz, Schein and Scheidt, all born within three years of each other. Pastoral life was represented by Schein's madrigal, Die Vöglein singen, and by Hassler's Tanzen und springen. Sacred music included the serious and beautiful O lux beata Trinitas by Michael Praetorius, one of the most versatile composers of his age.Highlights of a full and musically rewarding day were two 2-choir , 4 -part settings. The first was Laetatus sum, a substantial work based on Psalm 122 by Johann Hermann Schein (text also set by Parry as the anthem I was glad). It is believed that Schein never left Germany, but he absorbed Italian influences and used their early stylistic innovations in his music. Heinrich Schütz, on the other hand, travelled widely and was generally regarded as the most important German composer before JS Bach. His Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied, based on Psalm 98, proved a popular 2-choir work with which to start the afternoon.
For this day we tried a new seating arrangement. Strings remained at the front, but the recorders were now placed on either side of a narrow, central aisle, with singers at the sides and back. Thus, those singing or playing the same part were now closer together. Even so, some recorder players found it difficult to see the conductor when the singers were standing, and it was agreed that a rethink of the seating was needed.
Respite for players came in the form of Samuel Scheidt's Puer natus in Bethlehem, for singers only, although players were encouraged to join in. Mediaeval texts of Christmas and Easter verses, set to a tune of the period, were arranged as a 4-bar Cantus line repeated in a harmonized version. Finally, Surge, propera amica mea, by Jacob Praetorius, concluded the day in suitably spring-like fashion.
A quick cup of tea, then it was time for our informal performance to an appreciative audience of family, friends and visitors. Mike introduced a selection of the pieces on which we had worked and we proved to him, and to ourselves, what can be achieved in a few hours of concentrated study. Thank you Mike and Wendy. We all look forward to meeting again at West Bay in September.

The proceedings of this NEMA International Conference held in association with the University of York Music Department and the York Early Music Festival can be found at www.york.ac.uk/music/conferences/nema/
Richard Bethell (NEMA organiser of the conference) writes
"The 16 essays presented on this website are re-workings of papers given at the NEMA conference held in the Music Department on 7–10 July 2009. In my view, these proceedings make a valuable contribution towards historically informed vocal practice. Some essays include links to vocal illustrations, using recordings made at the University or taken from external sources. In addition, two contributions (those from Elisabeth Belgrano and myself) include an illustrated video or embedded sound clips providing essential support to the authors' arguments. Taken collectively, the essays certainly cover most the conference themes flagged up in our call for papers (see website introduction). However, vocal vibrato (tackled by four contributors) was by far the most popular and controversial topic.

The San Francisco 49ers entered training camp with a plethora of running backs at their disposal.
By Sunday, two have already been injured. A day after it was revealed Kendall Hunter tore his ACL, LaMichael James was carted off of the practice field with a left arm, according to the San Jose Mercury News. The NFL Network later reported James' injury to be a dislocated elbow.
The Mercury News report states that James appeared to have injured the arm during a pass-blocking drill.
The NFL Network also reported James should miss a month of action, which still puts him on pace for the season-opener. However, it gives Marcus Lattimore and Carlos Hyde more opportunities to earn reps over him. Lattimore does have an injury history of his own, having torn both of his ACLs at South Carolina.
It's not a good time to be a San Francisco running back. Those still able to practice should consider themselves fortunate.

Cuties in Concert: Justin Bieber and David Archuleta Celebrate Fourth of Julyby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Forget fireworks, beach visits and barbecues.
There's only one real way to celebrate the Fourth of July: by sitting back and listening to the melodic sounds of the two most adorable singers alive today.
That's what lucky concert attendees in New York City and Washington D.C. enjoyed on Sunday, as Justin Bieber performed for the former and David Archuleta for the latter.
Fortunately, THG is your hook-up for footage from these events, as you can watch Bieber belt out a version of "Somebody to Love" below and Archuleta follow it up with a rendition of "Stand By Me." Happy birthday, America, thanks for giving us these talented young stud muffins...
[video url="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/videos/stand-by-david/" title="Stand By David"] [/video]
Hmmmm... Archie and Bieber both perform at simultaneous July 4th celebrations, both have similarly titled single "Something 'bout Love" and "Someone to Love"... and a few other things. Coincidence? Bieber's cute, and okay. But Archie can actually sing. Yet the industry is more interested in Bieber, as singing is of no interest to them.
Ugh. As an Archuleta fan, I'm a little bit embarrassed by the fans who are insulting Justin Bieber on here. There's no reason to do that as the article was very complimentary to both of them. It's not a comparison piece so why feel the need to defend David? Some people like David better, some like Bieber, and some like both. Deal with it please.
No need to diss one if you like the other one better. I believe they are both good singers. I like Archuleta's voice better and don't feel any connection to Bieber, but I'm sure there's something about him. After all, many people think he's amazing.
The two pictures above are exactly showing who they are as an artist. Beaver, commercial, light-weight an idol for tweens. Archuleta, serious/(can be commercial if he wants), heavy-weight an idol for all ages (the Fourth of July show attracted 400,000 people in DC). Archuleta's serious musicianship draws many adults fans. Trust me. I have seen grown-up men wiping their tears when he sang 'Prayer of the Children' in his concerts.
Beiber is "not" singing live! Wonder why? No comparison here...lol David's vocals continue to amaze me.
The ONLY think Archuleta and Bieber have in common is that they are CUTE -- Archuleta can SING! That's a big difference to be BOTH CUTE and able to carry a good tune!
David is the BEST. The great thing with David is that its never about him. This song dedicated to the troups is just one example of how he ALWAYS thinks of others, what will benefit others, what will be good for others, how he cares about others FIRST. He never thinks of himself FIRST. If you don't already know David, believe me, you should. He looks like a kid, but he knows more about what's important in life than most adults. He is an exemplary human being; one to be emulated. And that very special extra is, HE CAN SING. Mary, forget the background dancers. Some performers need them, David does not.
Personally, I love David Archuleta's voice...so I watched the Capital 4th (twice- as they replayed the show). David was amazing as always singing the National Anthem and then dedicated "Stand by Me" to the troops. I can't wait for David's new single to be released to radio called "Something Bout Love" - awesome song!
David is an amazing singer !
David Archuleta never disappoints and such a wonderful tribute to the troups! That final note is a killer! Whoa, what a voice!

As of Tuesday night, the races were very close:
District 1
Todd Mielke, 12,070
Kim Thorburn, 11962
District 2
Mark Richard, 10,981
Brian Sayrs, 11,493
A couple things to remember:
Thousands of ballots left to count, so the spread could change.
The primary is held in the district, the general is countywide. It's unclear whether that benefits the Republican incumbents or the Democratic challengers. District 3 currently has a Democratic commissioner, Bonnie Mager; but it had a Republican commissioner, Phil Harris, for 12 years before that; and a Democrat, Pat Mummey, for eight years before that; and a Republican, Grant Peterson for four years before that.

People often have strange reactions when they're standing next to someone's deathbed. In Diana Amsterdam's Carnival 'Round the Central Figure, making its Houston premiere with Mildred's Umbrella Theater Company, some of those reactions are funny, some are sad, some are both — and all of them hit home. Jennifer Decker, the company's artistic director and co-founder, says she came upon Amsterdam's script by chance. It happened that she read it just after going through a similar situation and recognized much of her own experience on the pages. The father of a friend was dying, and as a newcomer and relative outsider, Decker clearly saw the family's denial in the face of obvious indicators that the man was near death. Some hoped for unlikely "good results" from a new medication, others worked on keeping a positive attitude and still others discussed after-hospice care. The man's family and friends did everything but deal with the realities of the situation at hand. Carnival 'Round's main character is Kate, a young woman who visits a friend who's dying and is swept up in the emotional situation.

Yelawolf - Push Em
Artist: Yelawolf
Featuring: Travis Barker
Producer: Travis Barker
Album: Psycho White EP
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 17 votes )
Unable to Watch this Youtube Video? Click here to play in Soundcloud instead.
A few years ago, when Yelawolf was just beginning to build his buzz, the Alabama native had to overcome the hurdle of looking more like a tattooed punk rocker than your typical rapper. Now that he's established himself as one of the most gifted emcees currently doing it, however, Michael Wayne Atha's decided to see if the shoe fits by creating a collaborative project with Blink-182 drummer-turned-solo phenom Travis Barker. Today, we get the video for the first taste of the project in the form of lead single Push Em. A genre-blending experiment just crazy enough to work, the record finds Barker pounding out a relentless oom-pah rhythm as Yela drops some characteristically hyperkinetic flows, before switching up tempo on a chorus/breakdown guaranteed to get the mosh pit raging when the record's performed live. Skinhead Rob and Tim Armstrong amplify the cut's breakneck energy with some bellowed call-and-response hook vocals. Psycho White is set to hit record stores and online retailers November 13. In the meantime, fans of Barker's percussion can get another fix via Xzibit's Napalm, released earlier this month.

One hot buyer lead can mean lots of things.
It can mean mad money for a summer vacation; it could mean an Ethan Allen leather Paloma chair; or it could mean a mortgage payment on your home.
Whatever finding a qualified buyer means to you, you may need to have dozens of conversations and sift through a lot of leads to find a few good quality prospects.
With the aftermath of the housing crisis affecting "the financial fortunes of millions, from first-time home buyers to timber workers, truckers and lenders", finding a buyer who has the ability to buy a house is more challenging these days. So having the means to rapidly qualify buyers is essential.
The best agents are highly skilled at finding and quickly qualifying the hot buyer. They can separate the A from the B from the C lead easily, determining who is going to act now versus act 30 days versus not act at all.
And a lot of these leads may want to act now but don't have the financial ability to do so. It's up to you to find those who are ready-to-buy and qualified to buy. Critical if you want to earn a paycheck and not just spin your wheels.
However, something to be very careful of is that today's prospects are highly skilled at deflecting sales advances. When you ask a typical qualifying question, they feel like they're being sold and bail out on the conversation.
So rather than teeing up rejection, I'm going to suggest an approach that may seem counter intuitive. I want you to frame your questions using what's called a "reverse." It's a subtle psychology that gets you to the truth far better than typical sales questions.
Master this technique with these six examples and you'll find it far more effective for moving your conversations in the right direction.
- Are you working with another agent? (typical rejection-filled question)
What did your agent say when they asked you to call me? (reverse)
- Do you need to sell your current home before you can buy? (typical rejection-filled question)
So I'm assuming you've already got your home listed with another agent? (reverse)
- How long have you been looking for a home? (typical rejection-filled question)
I'm guessing you've been shopping for a home for quite a while now? (reverse)
- Have you met with a lender yet? (typical rejection-filled question)
So I'm assuming you're already pre-qualified for a home mortgage? (reverse)
- Have you been pre-qualified or pre-approved? (typical rejection-filled question)
When you say you've been pre-approved, how do you mean exactly? (clarifier)
- If I call a lender and he has an opening, would you consider sitting down with him to determine what he can do for you? (typical rejection-filled question)
How about I give me lender a ring and have him contact you? It would be free of charge and you can find out where you're at and how much you can afford. (Once you reverse the questions and ask for clarity this softer question usually gets it done.)
The goal is to get them to meet with your lender. If they meet with your lender then your relationship with them will begin to solidify.
However, if you use the typical qualifying questions you'll never have to worry about that because the conversation will end before your lender ever enters the picture.
Practice these reverses, the clarifier, and the soft lender invitation 10-15 times out loud. Then use them. You'll be amazed at how effective they are at getting you to the next step.

Made this for dinner tonight. It was excellent.
Great video. Going to try this next week.
I've got some in the over right now!! Smells Heavenly.
Made this for dinner tonight and it was DELICIOUS! If you are a fan of spicy food, this dish is for you. YUM!! Sorry, I haven't run the numbers for the nutrition info yet. If you do, please share.
My roommate has thyroid cancer and was treated with radioactive iodine last week. This necessitated me having to spend a week at my daughter's house, which is not a bad thing, but it threw me out of my routine of cardio right after work every day. The little voice in my head kept telling me that I could just do a Spark Workout video or go for a walk instead of my usual bike ride, but I made the choice to ignore it. While I did stay on track with my nutrician, I didn't even bother to do my weekly weigh in today, because I can tell it would not be good news. On the bright side, I am back to my regular routine since coming home yesterday...with a vengence! I thought taking a week off would hurt my stamina and endurance, but IT DIDN'T. I actually decided to add 10 minutes to my daily cardio routine and have been successful at it for 2 days. YAY ME! I'm back on the wagon and even better than before. Looking forward to weighing in next Monday.

Ratings: American Idol ratings stable, wins Wednesday
Update: American Idol adjusted up to 6.1 and 18.89 million viewers.
American Idol scored a 6.0 adult rating with 18.63 million viewers. It has historically been adjusted up a tenth later in the day (so it is likely a 6.1 rating).
Idol ratings are steady! But how about this: The Voice and American Idol have similar ratings this week (The Voice had a 6.0). Who would have thought this would happen one year ago? I wanted to continue with the "ratings war" thing (it still is a war), but how can an Idol fan be really happy about beating another show by 0.1 in the ratings when for the past 10 years we didn't have to do that. Times have truly changed.
Modern Family had a season low 4.7 rating and Survivor: One World had a franchise low 3.0.
NBC was beaten by Univision again.
From TVbytheNumbers:
American Idol had a 6.0 adults 18-49 rating and if past history is a guide, will likely be adjusted up a tenth in the final national numbers. That compares to a 6.1 adults 18-49 rating for last Wednesday's one hour episode.
Fox easily topped the adults 18-49 ratings and total viewership on the night, as NBC's Wednesday woes continued. NBC was beaten again among adults 18-49 by Univision, and more than doubled by CBS and ABC.
Modern Family had a season low 4.7 adults 18-49 rating, vs. a 5.5 rating last week. Happy Endings drew a season low 2.5 adults 18-49 rating, vs. a 2.9 adults 18-49 rating last week.
The season premiere of Survivor: One World had a franchise low premiere 3.0 adults 18-49 rating, down 6% vs. the 3.2 rating for the Spring 2011 premiere of Survivor: Redemption Island. With Survivor in front of it, Criminal Minds hit a season low 3.0 adults 18-49 rating, down 9% vs. a 3.3 rating last week. CSI bucked the CBS/ABC downdraft, rising to a 2.7 adults 18-49 rating, vs. a 2.5 rating last week.
Got Something to Add?
sorry Rickey u can twist the numbers however you like but Idol is still King and still has the buzz...I have no interest in the voice ...so less Voice updates and more Idol would be appreciated.....
HAHA! Idol beat the voice by over 2 million viewers! So yes, it still is number one by far! And it beat it in the demo. The Voice ratings are sinking FAST!
@rickey ZOMG. ZOMG. ZOMG. #THEVOICE has lost to the show about fainting with no talent. But still, #THEVOICE ROCKS. I am shaking. ZOMG!!!!!!
@rickey please everyone, go to my blog and see how I and only one other poster are spinning these numbers for #TheVoice. It is funny. ZOMG.
Idol has been godawful boring this season. The chemistry of the coaches on The Voice are amazing but the contestants are just okay. Nothing excites me anymore. I'm wondering whether I'm having a singing show fatigue or the pentacle of singing show peaked at Idol Season 8.
@rickey no puking or fainting on #TheVoice. Ummm, ok. My spin is done. GO #THEVOICE. ZOMG. I LOVE THIS SHOW SOOOOOOO MUCH. ZOOOOMG. GO DEZ!!
@djfabian The only post that is getting any traction is the American Idol Top 24 Spoilers post. Everything else is below that of individual The Voice contestant posts. This is a direct result of the horrible audition episodes that Idol aired for 3 weeks.
@Julie_Idol NCIS beat American Idol in number of viewers. Idol is not the most watched show. I don't see why you could be happy when you are forced to compare yourself to The Voice -- a show you didn't even think would be competitive this season.
Again: The Voice has gone UP year-to-year, American Idol has gone DOWN year-to-year. There is no reason to celebrate a .1 demo win in my opinion. There is reason to celebrate steady ratings however - since the bleeding has stopped.
@aquayers I think you meant "pinnacle".
"Pentacle" is a satanic symbol. Although that might be appropriate as well. :)
@Mikhail XO Did you see what I just did there Mikhail? It's a loss for Idol to find themselves in this "ratings war" in the first place.
@djfabian I had all the American Idol auditions here when The Voice still hadn't aired and it was a ghost town! That's not my fault, it's the show.
@Mikhail XO The thought of going "we're #1" for barely beating The Voice embarrassed me, so I didn't do it. :)

Little man woke up on Wednesday with a plan …
He had a vision in his head about a fun day out with Mom and he really wanted to make it happen. How could I resist his oh-so-specific requests?
It sounded like a challenge to me. One I was more than happy to accept. This is my last year with a little one at home and we plan to make the most of it! It might be hard to cross all these things off your list in some towns, but here in San Antonio you can easily do all of those things in one day from the Pearl Brewery.
We planned to hit the San Antonio Museum of Art, but Little wore his snazzy new fall clothes (long sleeves and fleece pants) and it was about a zillion degrees outside, so about halfway there he made a command decision to swap museums. We drove less than a mile down the road to his favorite museum of all — The Witte.
Here's a few shots from our big day out:
Man, I love this city!
* All Photos taken with an iPhone *
Now for the fun part, it's time to join Rebecca again for #SimpleThingsSunday
