MCN says:
I've just passed my test and have been reading lots of motorcycle websites, mostly interested in the bikes I might buy next.
I've noticed that a lot of people commenting seem to be very rude, sexist and angry. I was thinking about going to a bike meet, but as a female I'm not sure I'd feel safe.
I want to know if...

Depends on where you are. Places like Matlock Bath or the Cat and Fiddle may be worth going as they are not really "bike meets" but more of a congregation.
Have done a few like Sixhills in Leicester but found them a bit dull.
I much prefer car and bike shows/meets like Ashby Folville. My g/f really likes that one too and its a good place to meet people and chat whether about cars or bikes.
Join a forum or 2 and see where they have rideouts. www.GBBikers.co.uk is a great family forum and doesn't really cater for any particular type of bike or rider. Pure sports riders may find it a bit tame.
Chat to people you see local to you on bikes as there's always rideouts or events on the go.
Why not go to the Tail End at Peterborough? Huge bike event though smaller than the May one. If you've not been, it's great but after a few years, I only go for bargains.

I don't have a dim view of bikers, this thread is about bike meets, and from my experience of them, I have a dim view of those who I encounted when attending them. For me, going to a dealer, or a bike stop like 'Doms Bike Stop' or Quatt is a completely different experience to going to Bassetts Pole or Six hills. At the former, people go, eat, drink, ask about good routes, then go off and ride. At the latter, people ride 30 mins to get there and then stand around in their own little cliques for hours talking about rides they only dream about. I'll happily go to bike stops and dealers, and continue to do so, as there seems to be more likeminded bikers there, but I doubt i'll never go to Bassetts or six hills again. There is a difference.

Never judge a book by its cover. Bikers have been stereotyped for years - i've been to loads and never felt unwelcome. Even used to go to Newlands corner on the YBR 125 and park with the R1's and Gixxers etc (amused me at the time), but no-one batted an eye lid.
It's no different from going to a pub or a night club (whatever you're in to). Every environment has a grey area - the same can be applied in all aspects of life.

You will be fine as long as you avoid scooter riders – those people are wrong in the head.

Track your patients' progress and communicate with Stanford providers conveniently and securely.
During a pandemic, emergency departments (EDs) may be overwhelmed by an increase in patient visits and will foster an environment in which cross-infection can occur. We developed and tested a novel drive-through model to rapidly evaluate patients while they remain in or adjacent to their vehicles. The patient's automobile would provide a social distancing strategy to mitigate the person-to-person spread of infectious diseases.We conducted a full-scale exercise to test the feasibility of a drive-through influenza clinic and measure throughput times of simulated patients and carbon monoxide levels of staff. We also assessed the disposition decisions of the physicians who participated in the exercise. Charts of 38 patients with influenza-like illness who were treated in the Stanford Hospital ED during the initial H1N1 outbreak in April 2009 were used to create 38 patient scenarios for the drive-through influenza clinic.The total median length of stay was 26 minutes. During the exercise, physicians were able to identify those patients who were admitted and discharged during the real ED visit with 100% accuracy (95% confidence interval 91% to 100%). There were no significant increases of carboxyhemoglobin in participants tested.The drive-through model is a feasible alternative to a traditional walk-in ED or clinic and is associated with rapid throughput times. It provides a social distancing strategy, using the patient's vehicle as an isolation compartment to mitigate person-to-person spread of infectious diseases.

People who "need" a spec not available to them "need" to reroll, certain classes do certain things - I swear only MMOs have this problem. FPS players don't roll up a sniper and then go "HEY THIS DOESN'T WORK WELL AT CLOSE RANGE, DEVS NEED TO LET ME STRAP A SHOTGUN ONTO IT!".
Tanking requires a certain mindset and desire to play, IF someone wants to tank - they're not going to be sat around playing their ranged dps class waiting for the day that mages get a tank spec, they're going to roll a tank and then, if mages get a tank spec, roll back to it.

I'm in love with my save the date magnets!
Romantic Ruche Save the Date Magnets I absolutely loved working with magnet street. I ordered a sample of a save the date I thought I liked. When I got the sample I decided it wasn't what I wanted. The staff at magnet street immediately cancelled my order and I redesigned my perfect save the date. I love it and I couldn't be happier!
Very impressed!
Romantic Ruche Save the Date Magnets The save the dates were perfect! Exactley what I had ordered and great quality. Even the packaging was beautiful and came in a box with my wedding color! Very Happy with the service and product and I will definitely be purchasing my invitations and thank you cards from Magnet Street :)
Excellent & Fun!
Whispering Feather Save the Date Magnets The ready made design options are awesome. It takes awhile to load and get things changed, however the ease of choosing a design and making a few personal touches is amazing. Love the variety!
Love the magnet 'save the dates'!
Romantic Ruche Save the Date Magnets They shipped quickly and were exactly as I had hoped. My only complaint is our colors are pink and gold and the envelope choice was silver only. I had to buy mailing envelopes separately elsewhere. My daughter and her fiancée are having a destination wedding, so we added an adorable card (had planes on it) with local airports and hotels so traveling relatives could start planning. I bought the return address labels and initial seals for the back. They are perfect. They're off in the mail today!

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) is investing nearly $20 million in railroad track and station improvements to the southern Green Line. The projects will prepare the Green Line to handle an increase in passengers related to the five-month reconstruction of the Red Line South beginning in May, and will benefit Green Line customers for the long term with increased service reliability and fewer delays.
Improvements that have been made or will be completed by May include improvements and temporary expansion of two Green Line stations, Garfield and Ashland/63rd, and significant track and signal work at several locations along the Green Line that will eliminate emerging slow zones that could impact and reduce travel times.
The improvements will enable Green Line tracks and stations to accommodate additional trains during the Red Line South reconstruction — a $425 million initiative that will completely rebuild the Red Line between Cermak/Chinatown and 95th Street over a five-month period beginning May 19. Because the Red Line South project will require a five-month shutdown of that section of the Red Line, Red Line trains will run on elevated Green Line tracks in some areas, with CTA also providing free shuttle buses that will transport customers from four Red Line stations.
CTA estimates the number of customers served along the Green Line during the Red Line South project could quadruple to more than 50,000 weekday rides.
Funding for the project was provided by the State of Illinois, including a $426 million state capital grant for the Red Line South project, part of more than $1 billion in federal, state and local funding announced in late 2011 by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Gov. Pat Quinn for the Red and Purple lines.

Of all the many things in this Universe,
trees are absolutely my favorite.
They are the bearers of ages of wisdom.
I'm convinced that if one spends enough time listening to trees,
they could know everything.
Tag Archive: tree
Today I am a tree.
I stand silently
in the forest.
I reach deep into the earth
and it provides me nourishment.
I feel the gentle caress
of air on my body,
the thrill of a gust of wind
rushing through my hair.
Joyously, I raise my arms
and face to the sun.
I dance in ecstasy
in the summer storms.
There is Life.
There is Now.
I am nothing and everything.
I am all things.
I am a tree.
My companions are trees, lions, and butterflies.
I walk with sunshine, stars, and universes.
All of nature spins about me in a continuous joyful dance.
All is familiar, all is family.
Happy to be alive; happy to die.
Happy to be part of the All.

A picture of Bret Hart with Karen Jarrett and Jeff Jarrett while all three were in New Orleans earlier this month for WrestleCon. Rumors are suggesting that Hart could have some sort of involvement with Global Force Wrestling, but that appears to be highly unlikely, as Hart does not want to ruin his relationship with WWE.
April 21, 2014
There are rumors floating around that Carlito could be one of the bigger names to sign with Jeff Jarrett and Global Force Wrestling. The two of them were spotted together during WrestleCon in New Orleans earlier this month. Carlito is denying that the two of them talked about a contract, but the former WWE star did say that he was open to the possibility.

April 6, 2014
During Wrestlemania 30 weekend, Mickie James performed a couple of her songs on the stage at the Sugar Mill in New Orleans. The former WWE diva is in town for WrestleCon, where she signed autographs and met with fans. Elijah Burke was spotted at her concert, and he confirmed it on Twitter by stating that he got a chance to jam out with Mickie.
April 6, 2014
Through Twitter, Honky Tonk Man posted this rather interesting message about having to buy his own ticket to New Orleans during Wrestlemania 30 weekend. He mentioned something about WWE screwing him over. The former Intercontinental Champion is in town for WrestleCon, and it does not appear that he was invited to the big event on Sunday night.
April 6, 2014
A couple of former WWE divas will be in New Orleans this weekend, and one of them is Maria Kanellis, who has been booked by WrestleCon to meet and greet with fans. While she has attempted to make up with Nikki Bella and Brie Bella recently, it is uncertain if she will be invited backstage at Wrestlemania 30 itself.
April 5, 2014
While much of the wrestling world has converged in New Orleans for Wrestlemania 30 this week, Melina Perez is one of the more notable names missing from the events. She has not been booked for WrestleCon, even though the likes of Fifi the Maid, Tammy Sytch and Gorgeous George, the former girlfriend of Randy Savage, are making appearances.
April 5, 2014
Legendary former NWA World Heavyweight Champion Terry Funk is in New Orleans this weekend. He is scheduled to meet and greet fans at WrestleCon. While Wrestlemania 30 is nearby, it is uncertain whether or not he will be backstage at the pay per view, as his relationship with Vince McMahon has always been on again and off again.
April 5, 2014
With much of the wrestling world in the state of Louisiana this weekend, Mr Anderson will be in New Orleans as well. Instead of working Wrestlemania 30, though, he will be making an appearance at WrestleCon, along with several dozens of other big name performers like Goldberg, Kevin Nash, Diamond Dallas Page and Scott Hall.
April 4, 2014

The Karate Federation of Nigeria is set to hold a tournament from which it will select its karatekas for the World Senior Championships in Germany in November.
The vice president and Technical Committee chairman of the federation, Emmanuel Metu, told The Punch that the athletes would be selected from the KFN President National Karate Championship slated to hold in Ilorin from March 26 to 30.
Metu said, "Athletes who emerge from the Ilorin competition will later be called for national camping in preparation for the WKF World Senior Championships in Germany.
"The Ilorin competition is sponsored by the president, Agu Ejidike, and we hope to invite as many as possible for camping."
He, however, said the number of athletes in the final selection will be determined by the availability of funds for the preparation for the event.
"We hope to take a full team to Germany, but the funds we have then will determine the final number we take to the competition," he said.

I picked up a shaker of Omega Zest at the little health food spot and decided these were MAGIC seeds that I wanted in my life. Finding hulled hemp seed locally was a joke. I looked around and found it here and at a GREAT price. I love these little guys. I find excuses to sprinkle them everywhere on everything. Even my banana is not safe! I added to the Triple Omega Seed Mix which I got here also. LOVE them.

Reviews for this vacation condo rental in Panama City Beach, Florida
Karen Gray
Melissa, TX
Lovely Stay
August 24, 2014
We were needing a last minute get-a-way for our family before our son left for his first year in college. We started inquiring on a beachfront vacation spot and Debby sent us information about her vacation rentals at Panama City Beach. Within a few hours we had a destination! When we arrived everything was just as expected. We had a lovely view of the white sand beach and the beautiful aquamarine water. The condo was clean, comfortable and nicely furnished. "My husband and I were out enjoying the water and we got to visiting with a nice couple that gave us some great recommendations for food and entertainment...and after a brief visit realized that it was Debby and her husband! Thank you Debby for your hospitality, we had a lovely stay!
Owner's reply:
We love our time in PCB and always make new friends when we are there. It was great to meet you and your family. Thank you for the compliments on our condo - we put a lot of thought into providing quality, comfortable furnishing. Many people comment on how much this unit makes them feel like they are at home. Hope you can visit again in the future.

Could not be better
July 5, 2012
We have been to PCB over 15 times and even with T/S Debbie I can't remember a better stay. We started going with our kids now it's our grandkids. This was our 1st time staying on the ground floor and it sure had its plus's. one of our grandkids she is 8 and lives in the pool, every time we needed somthing from the room we could leave her at the pool while we went to the room something we would never do if we had to go upstairs. Also going to the beach was easy as no riding up and down with all or stuff (belive me when my wife takes lots off stuff). The room was great and clean. I would and have recommend this property to any one
Owner's reply:
I'm glad Tropical Storm Debby didn't ruin your trip! We enjoy the convenience of the ground floor condo as well. Much easier to leave sandy items on the patio! And I love sitting on the patio to watch the sunset too! Thank you for your positive comments; we look forward to having you as a guest again in the future!

The month we visited Florida we stayed in this beautiful condo which had everything we could want to enjoy and experience a relaxing time. It was everything Debby said it was and more. Summerhouse grounds were so nice and people there were so nice. Bottom floor walk right out to pool area and always enjoyed the gulf from our patio with highlights of dolphins, beautiful sunsets and the emerald waters. Just a wonderful experience and we will return when we can. Never had to call maintenance for anything, had shopping close by for all our needs. Parking in the resort was plentiful and security all hours of the night. So much to see and do could have spent another month there!!! Debby called soon after we arrived to check on us and called us to make sure of our safe return to Missouri. We appreciated that, such nice people. Loved the place and will return!!!!!! 1

Found September 05, 2012 on Fox Sports:
PLAYERS: Chad Dawson, Andre Ward, Bernard Hopkins, Carl Froch, Lucian Bute, Arthur Abraham
There is palpable excitement for Saturday night's fight between Chad Dawson and Andre Ward (9:45pm, HBO), and for good reason. In the ring will be two young American fighters with impressive resumes and both with realistic aspirations of topping the pound-for-pound list one day. Both can take a big step towards that with a win this weekend. The oddsmakers have the undefeated Ward as the favorite. Maybe it's because he's never lost. Maybe it's the home-field advantage, with the fight in his hometown of Oakland. It could be the skill he's shown in going 25-0 since turning pro after winning Olympic gold in 2004. It may even be that Dawson is coming down from 175 pounds (light heavyweight) to 168 (super middleweight) to meet Ward, or even more likely, it is because of all of these reasons. Yet Dawson, 31-1 himself, and coming off a win over Bernard Hopkins, doesn't believe any of those factors will push the fight in Ward's favor. "It's a lot of motivation," he said of being the underdog. "It's excellent motivation. I don't think I've ever been an underdog in my career. This is my first time and it's beautiful. I'm going over to Oakland, his home town, and showing that I'm a true champion." Seven pounds may seem like a big drop for one fight, but Dawson has never had an issue making weight, and believes those who think he will be weakened by the drop in poundage will be sorely mistaken come fight night. "They're definitely making too much out of nothing. I've never struggled to make 175, so why would I struggle only seven pounds south. I'm 175 pounds [11 days before the fight]. I'm getting to Oakland at 170, taking off the next couple pounds, and making weight easy." Once he rehydrates, Dawson says he will be as strong as ever in the ring. He has not changed much in camp, eating smaller portions, but still making sure he got four meals a day. While all of those aforementioned advantages Ward has were downplayed by Dawson, the ones he holds, mainly a three-inch height advantage, and a reach advantage, will be his keys to victory. "My height, reach, and size the night of the fight are going to play a big factor. I'm a naturally bigger guy. My training camp went great and my head's in the right spot. I'm confident, calm and everything is going great right now." The 168-pound division is loaded with names like Carl Froch, Lucian Bute, Anthony and Andre Dirrell, Arthur Abraham and others as potential matchups for the winner of this fight. If it is Dawson, he will have a decision to make about defending the belt (only Ward's super middleweight belts are on the line) or going back to light heavyweight, where he is a title holder himself. "I don't know. I haven't thought that far yet," he admitted. "Like I tell everybody else, I think 168 is coming up to 175 soon including Ward, and when they do, I'll be right there. If I see a big fight at 168, I'll definitely stay there, but in all honesty, I do believe those guys will be coming up soon." Ward's pedigree as an Olympian and his current status as a top-five pound-for-pound guy on many lists, are also on the line come Saturday night. After defeating a legend in Hopkins, this is an opportunity for Dawson to propel himself into boxing's upper echelon, and knowing what an opportunity stands before him has him more than prepared to take that step. "Expect a super 'Bad' Chad Dawson," he says. "I had a great training camp and by the time the fight gets here, I'll have had nine weeks of training. I haven't done that in two years. Really, after Hopkins, I went right back into camp, so I didn't have a chance to get out of shape. I'm ready to prove people wrong and show I'm the best at 168 and 175."

The Department of Homeland Security was roundly criticized during a subcommittee hearing yesterday for not formalizing the use of protective masks for border control agents after swine flu spread into the United States from Mexico, reports The Washington Post.
In a few instances, supervisors at Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) banned the use of protective masks for CBP officers. Elaine C. Duke, undersecretary for management at DHS, told lawmakers that DHS' policy on protective masks was made by Secretary Janet Napolitano, basing her decision on recommendations from the Centers from Disease Control and Prevention and other agencies coordinating the response to swine flu.
Members of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee were not happy, opining that DHS was more concerned with public relations than the safety of its workforce.
"Madam, I'm sorry, but frankly this is an indictment of the system that they worry more about perceptions rather than allowing people to make their own decisions on their health," [Rep. Brian Bilbray (R-CA)] said to Duke.
Union representatives provided the committee with testimonials from workers they said were denied the right to wear protective masks. National Treasury Employees Union President Colleen M. Kelley, whose union represents CBP and TSA employees, said some of her members working along the U.S.-Mexico border could see their Mexican counterparts wearing protective masks.
"It is unacceptable and shocking that more than three weeks after the onset of the so called swine flu and despite repeated urging from NTEU and others, there is still no comprehensive guidance in place to protect the health of these frontline employees," Kelley said.
T.J. Bonner, of the American Federation of Government Employees, criticized DHS' policy, saying the policy made it possible for public servants to be transmitters of deadly diseases.

'Friday Night Lights' Actors Zach Gilford, Matt Lauria Talk About Moving On
Zach Gilford and Matt Lauria may not be household names to those not obsessed with DirecTV/NBC's football-set family drama Friday Night Lights. But to those familiar with the phrases "Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose" and "Real men fender bench," they're stars at the top of their game.
Gilford -- whose shy and wholesome character, Matt Saracen, departed the show during Season 4 -- is returning to TV this month via ABC's jungle medicine drama Off the Map, while Lauria is stepping out of playing Texas countryboy tailback Luke Cafferty and heading to Fox's Shawn Ryan cop drama The Chicago Code next month.
"Friday Night Lights really showcases actors well," Lauria told The Hollywood Reporter during Fox's Television Critics Assn. winter press tour. "It's really been a good launching pad for so many people."
As for their individual roles, Gilford opted for a character that was the polar opposite of QB-1 Saracen with Map's Tommy Fuller, a cocky and goofy doctor with a bit of an ego.
"[The role] was totally different than what I was doing," Gilford said of the show, written and created by Jenna Bans and executive produced by Shonda Rhimes (Grey's Anatomy, Private Pratice). "I get to grow up. I'm not shy; I don't have a stutter. It's just fun to really get to do something that's totally different."
Also different for Gilford was adjusting to Map's tighter script and Hawaii location compared to FNL's noted improv style and Texas hub.
"I was really scared because going from Friday Night Lights was going to be complete culture shock," he said, noting that Map's writers trust the drama's directors and cast, which includes Caroline Dhavernas (Wonderfalls) and Mamie Gummer (The Good Wife). "They give me a lot of freedom to really figure out who this guy is and play with it and make it a little more mine."
For Lauria, however, his new role as Code's Caleb Evers, a young detective quickly working his way up the ranks of the Chicago police department, wasn't that different from the loyal Luke.
"What I love about both characters is that Luke is incredibly sincere, staunch, loyal. And so is Caleb," Lauria said, noting that the characters share humble beginnings. "What I've always loved about Luke is he's so committed to doing the right thing. I think Caleb is a little more on top of it but in a different way: He's a little more fastidious and prepared."
As for leaving FNL, Lauria said he still keeps in touch with cast members and that their shared bond "won't fade."
Fox's The Chicago Code premieres Feb. 7; ABC's Off the Map bowed Jan. 12. DirecTV airs the series finale of Friday Night Lights on Feb. 9; Season 5 airs on NBC in the spring.

Hello there this is Gio L.
I'm a professional guitarist, performer, composer, instructor, international clinician, webinarist, with 20 years or professional experience in music education & live performances. I was Raised in the coastal city of Bari, Italy, I've picked up my first guitar at the age of 10 and have not stopped playing music ever since.
My training as a musician has taken me all over the world starting from Italy to a Mediterranean tour, to a Cruise Liner in Brazil to Hollywood CA,. I came to Los Angeles to attend the Musician Institute (Hollywood, CA) where I've graduated with honors from the Guitar Institute of Technology, there I had the pleasure to work as a tutor during my scholarship program. I'm an active musician, music is my life. Often I have the pleasure to travel abroad where I give guitar clinics and perform my music, I like to think of myself as a citizen of the world. I've been teaching professionally in S. California ever since 1998, I reserve the option for in persons one-on-one lessons only for my best students, again, music matters to me. During these last 16 years I've secured many teaching positions like at the Los Angeles valley College extension program, at the Los Alamitos Conservatory of music, at Mars Music learning Center, at the YMCA etc. though, as I've already mentioned, the best one will continue on with me. I've much more to share with you regarding my professional life, my discography ect. but let's talk about lessons now.
What I care the most is to make sure that you'll receive the best private education that money can buy. As I've stated on my headline, If you're serious about music, if you're ready to learn the skills, expand your knowledge, achieve your goals, then, I'm your man. I've learned that we all have different approaches when it comes to studies. Learning how play an instrument is a fun but challenging process. I'm not gonna lie to you, you need to work on it, plain and simple !
I'll provide you with written curriculum or I'll indicate the right book to be purchased, I'll monitor your progress and I'll make sure to get the best out of you. My experience let me face any situation with the confidence that only the know-how can give you (16 years of professional experience will do that!). I have wrote curriculum aimed to the "Just as an hobby" type of student as well as comprehensive once for professional players that want to specialize on a specific style. In both cases it doesn't change what you have to do, practice ! To end with I've transcribed thousands of songs, It only takes me few minutes to put on paper your favorite song, wouldn't it be great to be able to read and play the music you love ? You'll be in good hands regardless of your goals in music
*** Lesson Details ***
My teaching philosophy is to make sure that you enjoy your learning process. I'm a positive person, I believe in encouraging the student, every step you'll take toward your goal shall be acknowledge and awarded, I've been there, I know what it takes. Practice is a crucial aspect of this process, I'll motivate you, I want you be be successful in your learning journey, but, again, I need you to work on it, it won't happen otherwise.
Are you ready ?
*** Studio Equipment ***
The student has to provide his/her own instrument. A small guitar amp is provided for electric guitarist, so there is NO need to bring your own
*** Specialties ***
Music reading for guitar (Beg. to Pro.) Modern harmony (Beg. to Pro.) Improvisation (Beg. to Pro.)
Styles: Jazz, Blues, R&B-Funk, Classic Rock, Pop Rock, Latin-Spanish Styles, Brazilian, Finger-picking, Classical
My name is Massimo, I was born and I spent all my life in Italy since I moved, three year ago in US with my family for a new great adventure. I am so enthusiastic to be able to share with you the knowledge of the language of the greatest poets and writers, knowledge of one of the most beautiful country in the world, rich of history and art, and why not share "in Italian" some of the most terrific recipes for the most refined palate.
The classes in Italian cuisine are tailored to your interests and your skill level. I can teach you how to prepare a "quick win" dinner for all the family or to prepare "single size" amazing meals ready for all the week. I can teach how to make handmade pasta with semolina or with whole wheat. Have you ever tasted a terrific Tiramisu...with strawberries?
How I understand I can be a good Italian tutor, patient, helpful and always ready to arouse the attention of my students? My youngest son, Vietnamese, is the best proof of my skill. He was able to speak a really good Italian in less than three months. Then I found to be "good" with adults as well. I started to teach Italian to some friends and after to friends of friends .... and it worked again!
Key word? Talk, watch, read, listen and talk again!
I am aware the Italian has one of the most complex grammars, but I also know that speaking and reading and watching Italian movies, soccer game or Television News makes automatic to learn the basic rules useful for a good conversation. We can use a really simple grammar book to support with the basic rules up to more advanced grammar books if we may need.
My tutoring approach is focus on student's weaknesses and strengths: use the seconds to correct the firsts. What it is important is to work on what you really like (movie, politics, receipts, actors, history, vacations, ...) and I promise it works. I already experienced this approach with a lot of students and friends who want to speak Italian and know Italy ...waiting for a great vacation "nel Bel Paese".
I try to be flexible with time and I offer makeup classes in case of 24 hours cancellation. I have an quite full equipped office at home but I am available to travel if it is more convenient for the students.
I hope see you soon.. A presto!!
Music is my life and my biggest passion. I've been a working musician and a teacher for several years and there's nothing more rewarding than sharing all I've learned so far with my students, to nurture their goals and aspirations and to make them aware of the great instrument they already possess.
Here's more about me and my education:
I was born and raised in Italy and have been singing since I was a child but started a formal training during my teenage years with a private coach. During college, while studying Psychology at the University of Florence, I attended 2 different private music schools in Florence and Bologna, since it was not possible at the time to study music in College. There I kept studying vocal technique, solfege, classical guitar and music harmony.
I moved to LA 11 years ago and attended Musician's Institute earning a diploma in Vocal Studies and Vocal Performance and then I attended a Composition & Songwriting Program at UCLA for 2 years. I refined my vocal technique studying at Berkley College of Music for a summertime in a special program for Jazz Vocalists and I have been an Alexander Technique's student for now 10+ years.
I am a performing artist, I sing and teach privately for a living and, on the side, I help an Opera Touring company promote their tours. I have performed all over the country in some beautiful venues such as the Getty Center and Pantages Theater to name a few. Guitar is my second instrument but I accompany students with my piano during vocal exercises. My personal style of singing is modern, not operatic, I love many kinds of music but especially pop, jazz, and musical theater.
***Lessons Details***
**Teaching Adults**
There are two sides of singing that I like to work on with my students.
The first is vocal technique, which is first and foremost the study of how to use our instrument, our whole body, in the best and most useful way to avoid strain ad create beautiful sounds. I believe that when we relax and use the right posture, meaning the most natural one, then our bodies and our breathing mechanisms act as they are supposed to, and singing magically happens at its best. When we learn to use our bodies without strain, the right "singing" muscles are automatically engaged and exercised and we feel at ease. So I try to encourage a non-forceful way to use diaphragmatic breathing, which I have learned by studying Alexander Technique, which is a technique that teaches people how to stop using unnecessary levels of muscular and mental tension during any activity, especially during an artistic performance of any kind.
I try to notice bad singing habits the student may have formed throughout his/her life, (hopefully none!), and gently help them correct them. The vocal exercises I use are drawn from the Bel Canto tradition, a classical tradition, but I mix them with more modern vocal exercises to develop popular techniques like "belting" for example.
The second side of singing is simply to pay attention to song interpretation, to convey the message we would like to convey. I encourage the student to choose songs to work on they truly love, and I welcome any style of music. I give the students vocal exercises CDs to help them practice at home.
**Teaching Children**
What I described above is also true for teaching children, however I like to teach them "by ear" with simple vocal exercises and vocal games at the beginning of the lesson and try to ease them into the sound they naturally make. I like to create a positive environment in which the student can feel successful about even small achievements, whether it is standing in a relaxed way or having practiced the beginning of an exercise or part of a song. To help the student practice at home and keep the motivation alive without feeling overwhelmed I record each lesson (or let them record it) and give them the accompaniment for the song of their choice so they can have fun at home.
I teach young children using fun songs, games and classical guitar technique. I also teach adults and specialize in contemporary guitar. I welcome many styles of music, pop, rock as well as folk genres of Latin America. I emphasize good posture, tone and musicality, and always a high level of enjoyment with the process!
I plan and host 2 wonderful Recitals a year, ONE IN JANUARY AND one in June. I encourage all my students to participate. No matter how they may feel about their instrument level and preparation, working towards a performance is one of the most effective ways to solidify their ever growing skill!
*** Studio Equipment ***
For students who come to my home studio, there is private guest parking right outside my building, in a gated complex of buildings and in a safe neighborhood just north of the 101. My studio is conveniently located just a few blocks from the freeway entrance. I have a comfortable sofa for parents and siblings to attend the lessons and a keyboard to use for accompaniment. Also, I periodically offer my students the chance to record one song in my studio, equipped with nice microphones and a professional recording system.
*** Travel Equipment ***
I bring my small and light master-keyboard and laptop or I can use the student or student's parents piano/keyboard. For children's lesson I ask the parents to bring a notebook to keep track of practice assignments.
*** Specialties ***
Music theory and traditional methods for guitar. I also encourage performance and like to teach students how to feel comfortable on stage. Additionally I teach vocal jazz improvisation, musical theater and Italian song repertoire.
Welcome! My name is Christopher S. and I am a classical guitarist, song writer, and experienced music teacher. I began learning music when I was nine on the piano however by the time I turned twelve I discovered my passion for the guitar. I began by learning songs and playing in band with some of my school friends. This was the start of my journey into music. I started with blues, rock, and pop music but I quickly moved into more complex genres such as funk and Jazz music.
In college I began my studies of the historically endless and huge world of classical music. This is also when I began teaching and taking students of guitar. I studied classical music at Hofstra University and completed my degree at Humboldt State University in Northern California. After earning my degree I began working as a music and guitar teacher. I taught classical guitar at a summer camp called Long Lake Camp for the Arts and later I moved back to my home in Vermont. I was hired as the music instructor at a private music school called the Upper Valley Rock School. There I gave group lessons and private classes in guitar, bass, drums, piano and recording equipment. I have had experience teaching to kids ages 5 - 17 and to adults of all ages.
After working and saving up some money I realized that in order to better my skills and become the guitar teacher I wanted to be I had to travel abroad. I moved to Seville, Spain where for two years I studied the art of classical and flamenco guitar. I studied with a world renowned professor named Francisco Bernier at the Conservatory in Seville for two years and gave private guitar lessons to beginning classical guitarist part time.
Recently, I have been accepted into a Masters of Music program at the New England Conservatory and I am moving back to the US after three fantastic and culture enhancing years in Europe. I will be studying with the worldly recognized guitarist, Eliot Fisk. While in Boston, I will be accepting and taking on new students who are passionate and eager to learn classical and fingerpicking guitar. If you are interested in taking a lesson please contact me and we can set up a lesson time and begin learning the art of making beautiful music on the guitar! I teach all levels from beginners to advanced. Thank you very much and I look forward to hearing from you!

Fourteen artists joined me in a collaborative project a couple of months ago. It's online at thehomemadexchange.com until 31 August and its participants are Alex Falkiner, Brook Morgan, Brigitte Bättig, Carly Altree-Williams, Emily Penso, Elizabeth Pedler, Emma Griffin, Emily O'Brien, Emily Penso, Olivia Sherwood, Rachel Pringle, Rozalie Sherwood, Travis Heinrich and Wendy Meyen (including my mother and two sisters).
The exhibition is part of Craft Victoria's annual festival Craft Cubed (1-31 August). Here's an extract of my interview with Craft Cubed about the project: (The full interview is here.)
Explain the concept of The Homemade Exchange
The Homemade Exchange is a collaboration and online exhibition. A couple of months ago I was new to Instagram and enjoying being part of a friendly network with a focus on shared images. The Homemade Exchange came out of a desire to build on this kind of connection and to collaborate with close friends living overseas. I wanted to create a playful task with an element of exchange and as my circle grew, I wanted it to be easy enough for people to manage alongside other commitments. Artists emailed me an image – something from a domestic setting – and I sent them back a photo from another participant (randomly chosen) to respond to. Everyone is making an artwork in a medium of their choice and documenting their work for our online exhibition. It's quite a curious task to respond to someone else's source material and I'm looking forward to the responses.
You can see what each artist had to work with and how they responded here: thehomemadexchange.com. The responses include a felted vessel inspired by a stone-walled garden; a collage of dancers mimicking a shadowy line of silhouetted objects; a digital film with a beautiful sequence and crescendo of reflections, a sideboard laden with curios becomes a quilted pillow made from 250 pieces (!) and a drawing from gold leaf and mould inspired by the creased cover of a worn notebook. Divine! (I may be implicated here but I am sure I would be impressed with the variety of techniques and thoughtfully crafted responses on display, regardless!)
My response
I responded to Alex Falkiner's photo of what I imagined was her workspace, with drawings and textile works in progress alongside flowers and objects. I felt the image was strongly evocative of her and her art practise so I decided to focus on her hands in action. The appliquéd pieces are kimono silk offcuts I brought back from a trip to Japan. The orientation changed a couple of times in the process of working out the image and I happily added a couple of embroidery stitches to my repertoire. (Youtube has such excellent demonstrations – see Mary Corbet.)
