I am flabergasted that there is actually another person out there with my same last name. As Mark may know, this is uncommon. Is it possible that we can be related? My father just passed away last year from lung Cancer and it would be wonderful to find relatives.
I have been performing weight training and see no results.

Best Angelie Acapuyan Poems
A soft brush produces strokes of lightness And heaviness that depends on the spaces, Spontaneity succumbs as love colors imagination hastily But let it betray for a while you initiate a canvass with your company. Consciousness unknowingly dazzle which warmth causes As attachment ables deeply with effects of blushes, Concentration begs for more quiet scenes of complex fidgety But do not overdo for enough shall surely drive you crazy. Listen for palpitations and shortness of breaths Just remember to inspire its magnificence for it is normally felt, To relish oftenly neglects time but worry not for fulfillment awaits maturity And simply sketch love and color auspiciously to satisfy a work of eternity.

Anyone have feedback or advice on using a SS (stainless steel) container or a whole house filter + housing and the advantages/disadvantages of using one or the other or building one or the other... I want to construct a hop back for 5-10 Gallon batches and don't know which container i should use. I like the idea of fashioning a SS container where i can put one valve at the bottom and one at the top so i can drain the hop back if needed. With the House filter and housing the lines are both at the top and i am not sure how often i will need to change the filter (this system is also more pricey)... Any thoughts, experience/ideas or suggestions on other material would be greatly appreciated...Links to hop back systems Filter Housinghttp://blog.geirove.org/search/label/randall Stainless Steel Cannisterhttp://www.deerislandbrewery.com/projects.html
For the whole house housing, you should not have the filter medium in place when using as a hop back.
Do u know if i need to use some sort of pump with the house filter to get the wort to move through and out the top line? I will be transferring by way of valve and tube into the hop back and into another kettle...will that pressure be enough to keep the wort moving through?
From what I have seen you would have to midiofy the house filter housing with a central tube. And you would have to determine wort loss in teh housing and compensate by increasing your brew volume. Regardless of having a pump or not.
You should also check the temperature rating on those filter housings, since you'll be putting (near) boiling wort through it...
Hopbacks don't have to be closed systems. I used my old 10 gallon Polarware kettle and made a hopback filter. in the top, out the bottom, adjust pump flow and out flow. Got the idea from Dave Pearce on U tube. Works great
Are You Going to Drink all That?
They don't absolutely *have* to be closed, but there is something to be gained by going with a closed one. Part of the appeal of a hopback is that it keeps more volatile compounds that evaporate quickly at boiling temperatures in the wort, since it is chilled before they have a chance to evaporate. With an open hopback, you might as well just throw the hops in at flameout.
I agree. If it's an open system, just toss in the kettle at flameout and that's one less pot to clean. The hopback concept requires the hot wort to hit the hops and then be immediately chilled to ferment temps.

Headphone Design
This is the design of the earpieces on the headphones. Some headphones go inside the ear, while others rest on the outside of the ear. This helps you know exactly what type of headphones you will be receiving.
In-Ear: The ear buds go into the ear. Most often, the right and left ear buds are two separate pieces.
Enclosed-Ear: Usually are found on the larger headphones. They rest on top of the ear and have padding for comfort, as well as enclosing the ear to the speaker. This type of headphone helps to filter out surrounding noise.
On-Ear: This type of headphone involves the speaker sitting gently on the ear without going in the ear or sealing it off.
General Features
Corded means that the headphones use a cord to transfer the audio signal.
Wireless means that the audio signal is transmitted wirelessly to the headphones.
1/4" Stereo jack is a larger audio jack that select electronics have.
Efficiency (1w/1m) is not an accurate indicator of a subwoofer's output capability and should not be used as a comparison to other speakers or subwoofers to determine which one is "louder".

My wife wants a GPS for her birthday (I on the other hand prefer to get lost, drive around in circles and through various gang territories until giving up and going back home). Anyone have any advice on what to get? I want to get her something not too expensive, easy to use, and functional (has useful features). Looks like the 3 main brands are TomTom, Magellan, and Garmin. Any preferences? Thanks!
I liked the TomTom that I got with my rental car when I was in the U.K. a few years ago. I think it depends on your price point. The TomTom app for the iPhone was just reduced to $39 (USA only) so I am definitely thinking about getting that.
I use tom tom also but on my iphone. cheap and I can use it anywhere. I mount my iphone on my motorcycle and use bluetooth to hear directions.
I wonder if they make a GPS in New England that talks in a heavy Maine accent and says, "You can't get there from here."

I wanted a rose gold tone hoop earring that would be sturdy, look like the real thing, and be elegant yet understated enough for every day. These earrings fit the bill perfectly. They are beautiful and look like the real deal. They are light and comfortable and have a great closure that feels secure. I just ordered three more pairs, two for gifts and another for myself. I couldn't be happier. I strongly recommend them.
These earrings are beautiful. They seem to be very well made and could pass for high quality diamonds in rose gold. The stones are very white and sparkly. The length/width is great because it allows the earring to be able to be worn with anything, casual or dressy.
These are my "go to" everyday earrings. They are so comfortable and clasp tight. Look so beautiful and get a ton of compliments. The Rose gold is beautiful. Highly recommend
These ear rings are the perfect size. They have a unique locking clasp that will prevent having one come loose and loosing it. The glittter beautifully. I would highly recommend. Lightweight.

Good Points
Beautiful screen, reasonably light, nice tones
Bad Points
Short charger lead, slightly uncomfortable to hold to avoid touching camera lens, long menus
General Comments
I thought it strange that there was no phone book menu as such, and its rather annoying that when in the names list, you have to press the relevant key twice before it goes to names starting with those letters. The menus are undoubtedly long, but I think they've just tried to pack as much as they can into the phone and thats just how its ended up! What do you all think of the texting? I'm afraid I'm a bit biased towards nokia on that, used to send a msg on my 3330 in about 5secs flat! But it's not bad i suppose. This is my first contract phone and I am very impressed overall with it. Surprised that 02 didn't include all the helpline and 'extra' numbers in the pack like u normally get with pay as you go - how do you know what number to call if its lost or stolen or u want to change tarriff etc? Its not even on the phone!

TV Use in Faxon, OK
Here are some interesting facts about Faxon, OK from CableTV.com. Did you know that 1/3 of Americans have at least 4 televisions in their homes? That means 42 of the 127 people in your city could dedicate a TV to each major network. And did you know that DVR use is rapidly growing in America? DVR recordings now account for 7% of all TV viewing. But there are still 105 Faxon residents who prefer their programs regularly scheduled. Something else you may not know is that approximately 91 homes in your city have a TV and Internet bundle.

PennDOT Highlights New Organ Donation Initiative For National Donor Day
HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As part of tomorrow's recognition as National Donor Day, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced a new initiative at several driver's license centers across Pennsylvania educating Pennsylvanians on organ and tissue donation.
Video monitors are installed or being installed at 20 driver's license centers featuring a video with the facts and benefits of organ and tissue donation. The video was produced by Donate Life-Pennsylvania, a partnership of the state's two organ-procurement organizations, the Department of Health and PennDOT, to educate Pennsylvanians about organ and tissue donation.
"More than four million Pennsylvanians are already signed up for organ and tissue donation, but that is only forty-five percent of all driver's license and ID card holders," PennDOT Secretary Barry J. Schoch said. "If we can increase the number of registered donors, we can increase the odds of someone receiving a life-saving transplant."
The video also addresses common myths and misconceptions about organ and tissue donation that often prevent people from registering as donors.
Pennsylvanians can register to become an organ and tissue donor by saying "yes" when renewing their driver's license or state identification card at any PennDOT driver's license and photo center, or by visiting www.donatelife-pa.org. There is no fee to place the organ donor designation on your driver's license or photo ID. More than 8,300 of the 116,000 Americans awaiting life-saving organ transplants reside in Pennsylvania. However, the number of donors is not keeping pace with the ever-growing list of people who need organ and tissue transplants. For more information on organ donation, visit www.donatelife-pa.org. Media contact: Jan McKnight or Craig Yetter, 717-787-0485 Editor's Note: Following is a by-county list of locations where the educational video can be viewed on a continuous loop: Allegheny County:- Bridgeville Center: Chartiers Valley Shopping Center,1025 Washington Pike Rt. 50, Bridgeville, PA 15017

While my BCS-460 is "in the shop", I was trying to mimic StillDragon.com's DIY set up with the potentiometer and 40 amp SSR. I wired up the potentiometer to an old wall wart with 5v input and the variable output and the negative from the wall wart. However, I was only able to turn the SSR on and off. Even though I can read voltage from zero to 5v, there was no variable control of the element. I've seen something about wiring the potentiometer as a rheostat. Did I wire it wrong or do I need another component to cycle the element on and off in tandem with the potentiometer? I'm hoping the BCS is back before my next brew day but want to have a backup option on hand if it ever goes out again. Thanks!
I believe many of those setups use an SSVR which is slightly different than a normal SSR. I've been looking into some of the PWM options that people use with an SSR and I'm curious what people have done on this same topic. I would like to implement some type of variable control like this for my boil kettle.
Crap, you're right. Just noticed the type of SSR included here is SSVR. Same concept. http://www.auberins.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=332 Guess I won't be controlling the output easily. Hopefully the BCS is back soon.
I don't think a pot would work. It is a variable resistor which explains why you can get a range of 0-5v. A SSR is a relay. A relay is just an electrically operated switch. In simple terms you have a load side where the element is. Then you have a coil side which is the input from your trigger. It sees voltage on the coil it turns on the load. The voltage goes away from the coil side and it shuts off the load. There is a point where it would turn on and off with a pot but you would have to manually crank it up and down. Might as well wire up a light switch as it would be easier to toggle on and off. It won't modulate the power in any way. Just on full on or off. You need something to generate a square wave pulse. I use something like this on my motorcycle to produce a square wave 12V to power my heated gear when riding in cold weather. This gives me a way of adjusting the amount of heat that my jacket and gloves provide. While I could use a POT in this application it would pull full load all the time and the POT would shed power in the form of heat. In the case of my heated grips I use a 12V DC Motor Controller. In the case of the gloves and jacket I use a Heatroller.
Primary: Secondary: River Bend Wheat Kegerator Tap 1: American IPA Kegerator Tap 2: Red Lager Kegerator Tap 3: Oatmeal Stout Kegerator Tap 4: Charged H2O
With a regular SSR you set the power by changing the duty cycle (the proportion of time it is on) which is easy to do with a hacked LED dimmer.
The link is in my signature P-J.
How hard can it be?
it might work but the frequency is too high at 140 Hz, you want 1 Hz or even less. It looks like a 555 chip on there, probably this circuit, Figure 5.2, left hand side. Substitute C1 for something with 100x higher capacitance.http://forum.allaboutcircuits.com/sh...41&postcount=6

In light of our recent thread here in which a 3.5/4.0-ish guy said he held back to avoid hurting others, I put the two things together. Are guys in league mixed genuinely worried that they cannot hit their best serves for fear of hurting the woman?
I think it is reasonable to hold back on serving to the woman to avoid having to hit a weak second serve. Or because spin is more effective than pace. Or to avoid a DF, as there is no greater sin than DFing to the woman in mixed. But holding back on a serve to spare her a trip to the hospital?
Has anyone ever hurt a female opponent in a league match with a serve?
I haven't played mixed competitively in a few years. But, I always found that a kick to the backhand or a slice that made them take a few steps was a better-higher percentage play.
Unless I was in a multiple deuce service game, I wouldn't bother going big to the woman. But, if they can handle kicks and slices, they would start to see some more pace.
No, I've never hurt someone with my serve. Can't think of a time when I ever hit someone with enough pace to even threaten injury.

11-foot alligator killed at Coleto Creek swimming area
By BY JULIAN CAVAZOS - email@example.com

Updated July 18, 2009 at 2:18 a.m.
If you spot an alligator
Don't feed them. Alligators will associate food with people. Plus, there is a $500 fine if you're caught.
Don't harass them.
Stay at least 30 feet away.
Contact your state park game warden if you see alligators near a swimming area.
If an alligator catches your fishing line, just cut the line and let it go.

The largest alligator on record in Texas was found in Jackson County. The gator was 14 feet 4 inches long.
Alligators grow from six to eight inches a year. After they reach six feet, their growth slows down considerably.
The average Texas alligator is 7 foot 6 inches during harvest season
In the last 75 years, no one in Texas has ever been killed from an alligator attack per se. There have been some incidences, such as bites, but only after someone harassed or fed them.
Source: Monique Slaughter, Texas Parks and Wildlife
COLETO CREEK - A 11-foot, 6-inch American alligator was killed Wednesday after being a nuisance to swimmers at Coleto Creek Park, near Goliad.
The 800-pound alligator was about 40 yards away from nearly a dozen people swimming at the creek, said Larry Janik, the nuisance control hunter from El Campo .
The park called Janik to handle the alligator. He shot it with his rifle.
Killing the alligator was a safer option than moving it somewhere else, said Janik, who also has an alligator farm and incubates baby alligators in El Campo.
"When you've got an 800-pound alligator that's not scared of people, it's more likely to put the problem on somebody else," he said.
Monique Slaughter, a Texas Parks and Wildlife natural resource specialist in Port Arthur, agreed that the alligator needed to be shot.
"If it's a nuisance gator, it's not wise to move it somewhere else because it'll be a problem elsewhere," Slaughter said. "If it's over 6 foot, it's harder to move. It's a lot safer to euthanize them."
Janik said he gets between 400 and 600 nuisance calls a month, with the most being from Brazoria, Matagorda and Fort Bend counties. He handles calls from Galveston down to South Padre Island, he said.
Based on the alligator's size, Slaughter estimated its age was in its late to mid 30s.
No part of the alligator will go to waste, Janik said.
"Its hide will go to a tannery and be used for leather goods, boots, shoes, wallets," he said. "The meat will be processed in restaurants and stores."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Bel canto (Bel-Canto) (Italian, "beautiful singing"), along with a number of similar constructions ("bellezze del canto"/"bell'arte del canto"), is an Italian opera term. It has several different meanings and is subject to a wide array of interpretations.[1]
The earliest use of the term "bel canto" occurred in late 17th-century Italy, when it was applied to a sophisticated model of singing that was evolving there among practitioners of operatic and sacred music. The term did not become widely used, however, until the middle of the next century, which was the heyday of opera seria, the static but technically challenging da capo aria, and the now-extinct castrato voice.
In the mid-19th century, bel canto gained a more specific meaning when it was employed to distinguish what by now had developed into the traditional Italian vocal model from more forceful, less ingratiating styles of singing. These newer styles of singing had arisen as a result of 19th-century operas growing increasingly dramatic, pitting performers against louder and denser orchestral accompaniments in bigger theatres. Nonetheless, "neither musical nor general dictionaries saw fit to attempt [a] definition [of bel canto] until after 1900". The term remains vague and ambiguous in the 21st century and is often used nostalgically to evoke a lost singing tradition.[2]
As generally understood today, the term "bel canto" refers to the Italian-originated vocal style that prevailed throughout most of Europe during the 18th century and lingered in a less elaborate but still dominant form until around 1840. The hallmarks of the bel canto style were:
Operas and oratorios highly conducive to this method of singing were composed by George Frideric Handel (1685–1759) and his contemporaries during the Baroque period. They contained da capo arias which were designed to provide solo singers with plentiful opportunities to display their technical skill and demonstrate their ability to improvise on the spot by embellishing the written score in a (hopefully) tasteful and illuminating manner. Da capo arias featured extensive and elaborate ornamentation, demanding much from the vocalist in the way of fluent runs, trills, turns (gruppetti), mordents, morendi, roulades, staccato passages, appoggiaturas, acciaccaturas, marcato notes, messa di voce effects, rapid scales, wide leaps spanning two octaves or more and brilliant cadenzas. In short: what is commonly referred to by opera-goers as coloratura.
Two famous 18th-century teachers of coloratura vocalism were Antonio Bernacchi (1685–1756) and Nicola Porpora (1686–1768), but numerous others existed. A large proportion of these teachers were castrati. Singer/author John Potter declares in his book Tenor: History of a Voice (Yale University Press, 2009, p. 31) that: "For much of the 18th century castrati defined the art of singing; it was the loss of their irrecoverable skills that in time created the myth of bel canto, a way of singing and conceptualizing singing that was entirely different from anything that the world had heard before or would hear again."
In a narrower application, the term "bel canto" is sometimes attached exclusively to Italian opera of the time of Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868), Vincenzo Bellini (1801–1835) and Gaetano Donizetti (1797–1848). These three composers wrote bravura works for the stage during what musicologists call the bel canto era, which lasted approximately from 1805 to 1840. The bel canto era preserved many of the Baroque's musical values, although such characteristic forms as opera seria and the da capo aria did not survive the passing of the 18th century. Changing tastes and social standards also killed off the operatic castrato voice and ensured the concomitant rise to singing supremacy of the prima donna soprano and the virtuoso tenor. (The last important opera role for a castrato was written in 1824 by Giacomo Meyerbeer [1791-1864].)[3]
The phrase "bel canto" did not enter common usage until the middle of the 19th century, when it was set in opposition to the development of a weightier, more powerful style of speech-inflected singing associated with German opera and, above all, Richard Wagner's revolutionary music dramas. Wagner (1813–1883) decried the Italian singing model, alleging that it was concerned merely with "whether that G or A will come out roundly". He advocated a new, Germanic school of singing which would draw "the spiritually energetic and profoundly passionate into the orbit of its matchless Expression".[4]
Interestingly enough, French musicians and composers never embraced the more florid extremes of the 18th-century Italian bel canto style. They disliked the castrato voice and because they placed a premium on the clear enunciation of the texts of their vocal music, they objected to the sung word being obscured by excessive fioritura.
The popularity of the bel canto style as espoused by Rossini, Donizetti and Bellini faded in Italy during the mid-19th century. It was overtaken by a heavier, more ardent, less embroidered approach to singing that was necessary in order to perform the innovative works of Giuseppe Verdi (1813–1901) with maximum dramatic impact. Tenors, for instance, began to inflate their tone and deliver the high C (and even the high D) directly from the chest rather than resorting to a suave head voice/falsetto as they had done previously—sacrificing vocal agility in the process. Sopranos and baritones reacted in a similar fashion to their tenor colleagues when confronted with Verdi's drama-filled compositions. They subjected the mechanics of their voice production to greater pressures and cultivated the exciting upper part of their respective ranges at the expense of their mellow but less penetrant lower notes. Initially at least, the singing techniques of 19th-century contraltos and basses were less affected by the musical innovations of Verdi, which were built upon by his successors Amilcare Ponchielli (1834–1886) and Arrigo Boito (1842–1918).
One reason for the eclipse of the old Italian singing model was the growing influence within the music world of bel canto's detractors, who considered it to be outmoded and condemned it as vocalization devoid of content. To others, however, bel canto became the vanished art of elegant, refined, sweet-toned musical utterance. Rossini lamented in a conversation that took place in Paris in 1858 that: "Alas for us, we have lost our bel canto".[5] Similarly, the so-called German style was as derided as much as it was heralded. In the introduction to a collection of songs by Italian masters published in 1887 in Berlin under the title Il bel canto, Franz Sieber wrote: "In our time, when the most offensive shrieking under the extenuating device of 'dramatic singing' has spread everywhere, when the ignorant masses appear much more interested in how loud rather than how beautiful the singing is, a collection of songs will perhaps be welcome which – as the title purports – may assist in restoring bel canto to its rightful place."[3]
In the late-19th century and early-20th century, the term "bel canto" was resurrected by Italy's singing teachers, among whom the retired Verdi baritone Antonio Cotogni (1831–1918) was perhaps the pre-eminent figure. Cotogni and his ilk invoked it against an unprecedentedly vehement, unsubtle and vibrato-laden style of vocalism which was being adopted by more and more post-1890 singers in order to cope with:
To make the situation worse, during the 1890s, the directors of the Bayreuth Festival began propagating a particularly forceful style of Wagnerian singing that placed such an undue emphasis on the articulation of the individual words of the composer's libretti, the all-important musical component of his operas was compromised. Called "Sprechgesang" by its proponents and the "Bayreuth bark" by its opponents, this hectoring, text-based, anti-legato approach to vocalism spread across the German-speaking parts of Europe prior to World War I. It was totally at odds with the Italian ideals of "beautiful singing".
As a result of these many factors, the concept of bel canto became shrouded in mystique and confused by a plethora of individual notions and interpretations. To complicate matters further, German musicology in the early 20th century invented its own historical application for "bel canto", using the term to denote the simple lyricism that came to the fore in Venetian opera and the Roman cantata during the 1630s and '40s (the era of composers Antonio Cesti, Giacomo Carissimi and Luigi Rossi) as a reaction against the earlier, text-dominated "stilo rappresentativo".[1] Unfortunately, this anachronistic use of the term bel canto was given wide circulation in Robert Haas's Die Musik des Barocks (Potsdam, 1928) and, later, in Manfred Bukofzer's Music in the Baroque Era (New York, 1947). Since the singing style of later 17th-century Italy did not differ in any marked way from that of the 18th century and early 19th century, a connection can be drawn; but, according to Jander, most musicologists agree that the term is best limited to its mid-19th-century use, designating a style of singing that emphasized beauty of tone and technical expertise in the delivery of music that was either highly florid or featured long, flowing and difficult-to-sustain passages of cantilena.[3]
In the 1950s, the phrase bel canto revival was coined to refer to a renewed interest in the operas of Donizetti, Rossini and Bellini. These composers had begun to go out of fashion during the latter years of the 19th century and their works, while never completely disappearing from the performance repertoire, were staged infrequently during the first half of the 20th century, when the operas of Wagner, Verdi and Puccini held sway. That situation changed significantly after World War II with the advent of a group of enterprising orchestral conductors and the emergence of a fresh generation of singers such as Maria Callas, Joan Sutherland and Beverly Sills, who had acquired bel canto techniques. These artists breathed new life into Donizetti, Rossini and Bellini's stage compositions, treating them seriously as music and re-popularizing them throughout Europe and America.[6] Today, some of the world's most frequently performed operas, such as Rossini's The Barber of Seville and Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor, are from the bel canto era.[7]
Not coincidentally, the 18th-century operas of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791), which require adroit bel canto skills if they are to be performed well, also experienced a post-war revival that shows no sign of abating, while the florid operas composed by Mozart's predecessor Handel have undergone a similar surge in popularity during recent decades. "I should think that performances of Handel operas now outnumber all others," avers classical music commentator Simon Callow in the April 2010 issue of Gramophone magazine (p. 26).
Musicologists occasionally apply the label bel canto technique to the arsenal of virtuosic vocal accomplishments and concepts imparted by singing teachers to their students during the late 18th century and the early 19th century. Many of these teachers were castrati.
"All [their] pedagogical works follow the same structure, beginning with exercises on single notes and eventually progressing to scales and improvised embellishments," writes Potter on p. 47 of his Tenor: History of a Voice. "The really creative ornamentation required for cadenzas, involving models and formulae that could generate newly improvised material, came towards the end of the process." (Today's pervasive idea that singers should refrain from improvising and always adhere strictly to the letter of a composer's published score is a comparatively recent phenomenon, promulgated during the first decades of the 20th century by dictatorial conductors such as Arturo Toscanini [1867-1957], who championed the dramatic operas of Verdi and Wagner and believed in keeping performers on a tight interpretive leash. See, for instance, Volume 1 of Michael Scott's survey The Record of Singing [Duckworth, London, 1977], pp. 135–136; also Potter, p. 77.)
Potter notes, however, that as the 19th century unfurled, "The general tendency ... was for singers not to have been taught by castrati (there were few of them left) and for serious study to start later, often at one of the new conservatories rather than with a private teacher. The traditional techniques and pedagogy were still acknowledged, but the teaching was generally in the hands of tenors and baritones who were by then at least once removed from the tradition itself."
Early 19th-century teachers described the voice as being made up of three registers. The chest register was the lowest of the three and the head register the highest, with the passaggio in between. These registers needed to be smoothly blended and fully equalized before a trainee singer could acquire total command of his or her natural instrument, and the surest way to achieve this outcome was for the trainee to practise vocal exercises assiduously. Bel canto-era teachers were great believers in the benefits of vocalise and solfeggio. They strove to strengthen the respiratory muscles of their pupils and equip them with such time-honoured vocal attributes as "purity of tone, perfection of legato, phrasing informed by eloquent portamento, and exquisitely turned ornaments", to quote from the introduction to Volume 2 of Scott's The Record of Singing (Duckworth, London, 1979).
Major refinements occurred to the existing system of voice classification during the 19th century as the international operatic repertoire diversified, split into distinctive nationalist schools and expanded in size. Whole new categories of singers such as mezzo-soprano and Wagnerian bass-baritone arose towards the end of the 19th century, as did such new sub-categories as lyric coloratura soprano, dramatic soprano and spinto soprano, and various grades of tenor, stretching from lyric through spinto to heroic. These classificatory changes have had a lasting effect on the way singing teachers designate voices and the way in which opera house managements cast their productions.
It would be wrong, however, to think that there was across-the-board uniformity among 19th-century bel canto adherents when it came to passing on their knowledge and instructing students. Each of them had their own training regimes and pet notions; but, fundamentally, they all subscribed to the same set of bel canto precepts, and the exercises that they devised in order to enhance their students' breath support, dexterity, range and technical control remain valuable and, indeed, are still employed by some teachers.[1]
Manuel García (1805–1906), author of the influential treatise L'Art du Chant, was the most prominent of the group of pedagogues that perpetuated bel-canto principles in their teachings and writings during the second half of the 19th century. His like-minded younger sister, Pauline Viardot (1821–1910), was also an important teacher of voice, as were Viardot's contemporaries Mathilde Marchesi, Camille Everardi, Julius Stockhausen, Carlo Pedrotti, Venceslao Persichini, Giovanni Sbriglia, Melchiorre Vidal and Francesco Lamperti (together with Francesco's son Giovanni Battista Lamperti). The voices of a number of their former students can be heard on acoustic recordings made in the first two decades of the 20th century and re-issued since on LP and CD. Some examples on disc of historically and artistically significant 19th-century singers whose bel canto-infused vocal styles and techniques pre-date the "Bayreuth bark" and the dramatic excesses of verismo opera are:
Sir Charles Santley (born 1834), Gustav Walter (born 1834), Adelina Patti (born 1843), Marianne Brandt (born 1842), Lilli Lehmann (born 1848), Jean Lassalle (born 1847), Victor Maurel (born 1848), Marcella Sembrich (born 1858), Lillian Nordica (born 1857), Emma Calvé (born 1858), Nellie Melba (born 1861), Francesco Tamagno (born 1850), Francesco Marconi (born 1853), Léon Escalais (born 1859), Mattia Battistini (born 1856), Mario Ancona (born 1860), Pol Plançon (born 1851), and Antonio Magini-Coletti and Francesco Navarini (both born 1855).

BANGKOK (AP) — Christmas is not a holiday in predominantly Buddhist Thailand, and its palm trees outnumber pines, but the country still set a world record with its holiday spirit.One of the country's largest shopping malls arranged a publicity stunt involving 852 schoolchildren dressed in green and red hoodies to break the Guinness World Record for the largest human Christmas tree. They outdid a German record of 672 participants in 2011.To the relief of parents, and the chagrin of a few teenagers, the children were not hoisted onto a human pyramid shaped like a conifer.It was more an exercise in crowd control, grouping the assembled 6- to 15-year-olds into a tree-like formation on the ground."I kind of thought we'd get to stand on each other's shoulders," said 13-year-old Nattakit Liewkulnattana. Like most participants at the event, he doesn't celebrate Christmas. He wasn't sure whose birthday the holiday marks ("Santa Claus?") but was excited to take part in a world record, and maybe get something in return."I want presents!" the teen said. All participants got to keep their hoodies.The record was set in 15 minutes, 29 seconds.Guinness representative Fortuna Burke certified the feat, counting on a clicker as children filed onto an outdoor verandah at Siam Paragon mall, the event's organizer. Once in place, the children waved as a drone flew overhead to capture aerial images.Although Christmas does not appear on Thai calendars and is a regular workday, hotels and shopping malls decorate starting in mid-November for what is a big shopping season during Thailand's peak tourism months.Thais also set other off-beat records this year. On Valentine's Day, a couple set a record for longest kiss (58 hours, 35 minutes and 58 seconds). Also in February, nearly 4,483 people swung hula hoops for seven minutes, a record for the most people dancing with hula hoops simultaneously in one place.

Constrictive pericarditis is stiffening and thickening of the membrane sac around the heart (pericardium). Repeated or prolonged episodes of inflammation of the pericardium (pericarditis) can lead to constrictive pericarditis, which restricts the heart's ability to pump effectively.
Constrictive pericarditis can be caused by medical conditions or treatments that involve inflammation. These include radiation therapy and complications after surgery. But the cause is often unknown.
If the pericardium becomes thick and stiff and interferes with the heart's ability to pump blood, it can be removed in a procedure called pericardiectomy. Although the pericardium surrounds and cushions the heart, the heart can function without it, if necessary.

Gorgeous Arrangement March 29, 2012
Sorry it has taken me so long to write a review, but time has a way of slipping by as one ages. The recipient of the flowers said the arrangement was gorgeous, and under the circumstances (she lost her husband), I thought that was commendable. If the arrangement showed up at her home looking just like the picture, it had to be gorgeous.

As part of the celebration, Sterling will continue its plan to split $5,000 among three local nonprofit organizations. Representatives of Blue Mountain Action Council, Children's Home Society and Helpline will attend the event.
Sterling officials will give $2,500 to the first-place charity, as voted by local residents. The second-place winner will get $1,500; and $1,000 will go to the third-place winner. Friday will be the last day to vote for one of the charities.
Ballots are available at the Main Street, Rose Street and College Place branches but must be dropped off at the new branch.
Friday's celebration runs until 1:30 p.m. and include refreshments.

Laporta waiting for Puyol
03 Oct 2009 - 14:38:41
Barcelona president Joan Laporta remains hopeful that club captain Carles Puyol will agree a new contract with the European and Spanish champions before the end of the year.
The 31-year-old defender has yet to agree fresh terms at the Camp Nou, with his current deal set to run out at the end of the current campaign.
Laporta told Marca: "He already knows our decision - we want him to continue and have therefore given him an offer.
"We must respect that he wants to think about his decision, but we would like him to take this decision before the end of the year."
Puyol has made well over 400 appearances for Barca since joining the club in 1995, as well as earning nearly 80 caps for Spain.
