5 Easy Tricks With Approach Notes That Will Make You Sound Like a Pro
Ever wonder how the best players seem to improvise brilliant lines without any effort?
All while you're struggling to make even the simplest chord tones sound good…
If you're like most players you know this frustration. However, the solution doesn't lie with a hidden secret or advanced music theory – it all goes back to the musical foundation that you already know.
By now you should be able to visualize the root and chord tones of any chord.
But knowing this information is only the starting point. The trick lies in making music out of these harmonic building blocks.
So how do you start with the basic notes of a chord and turn them into a solo that sounds good? How do you transform a few boring triads into music that people actually want to listen to??
As you'll soon see, the gap between memorized theory and musical solos is closer than you think – you just need to know a few tricks.
It's all about your approach…
Many of the complex lines that you hear in your favorite solos aren't based on fancy scales.
Or even complex chords…
They are rooted in the basic structures found in every common chord: the root, 3rd, 5th and 7th.
One way improvisers create complex lines with limited material is through the use of chromatic approach notes.
For example listen to the opening of Dizzy Gillespie's arrangement of Blue n' Boogie:
Without the ornamentation or 16th notes the line would look like this – a Bb major triad with half-step approach notes:
Every great improviser utilizes the trick of approach notes in their playing and lucky for you, it's built upon the bare bones of music theory that you already know!
Below we'll show you 5 ways to use approach notes that will turn those triads and arpeggios into musical language that sounds great in all of your solos.
Trick #1: Use approach notes on major triads
Let's start with something simple – a major triad.
I'm guessing you can play a major triad and I'm guessing that you can visualize those three notes in your mind…
But a triad by itself isn't music. It's a music theory exercise.
This is where a simple approach note can make all the difference.
By approaching the basic triad with a half-step you add harmonic pull and musical direction. And with the addition of a rhythmic element you now have a musical phrase.
Instead of someone stumbling over basic music theory, you now sound like an improviser making a musical statement.
Start by memorizing this simple exercise in every key.
*After you've ingrained the major triads do the same for minor, diminished and augmented triads.
Trick #2: Use approach notes with diatonic triads
Now that you've approached the major triad in all 12 keys, let's just focus on one key.
Apply the concept above to the diatonic chords in a single key. Start with the tonic triad and move up step by step, inserting a chromatic approach note below the root of each diatonic triad.
For example, here is the exercise in the key of C:
Then apply this concept to the same triads descending:
Take this pattern through the diatonic triads of all 12 keys.
For more variation, experiment with approach notes in both ascending and descending triads. Remember to take everything through all four directions.
Trick #3: Approach notes on chord tones
Aside from the root, you must also learn how to utilize approach notes on each chord tone of a chord.
For example, take a triad and add a chromatic approach note below the root, 3rd and 5th.
A melody that uses this technique is Dizzy Gillespie's tune The Champ. Check it out:
Along with major triads, practice using approach notes to the chord tones of minor, diminished and augmented triads as well.
You can also use a lower neighbor approach note. Listen to how Clifford Brown uses this technique in his solo on Joy Spring:
Trick #4: Approach notes on 7th chords
When you improvise a solo over any of the common jazz standards, you aren't dealing with just triads, you're dealing with 7th chords.
And like the exercises above, you can also apply approach notes to 7th chords.
Let's start with a Major 7th chord.
Approaching a Major 7th arpeggio by half-step is very common – I'm sure you've heard this in countless solos.
One example is Clifford Brown's solo break on I'll Remember April:
The basic structure of this line is a Major 7th arpeggio:
Practice using an approach note on Major 7th arpeggios in every key. (If you've already got the major triads from step #1 under your fingers this one should be pretty easy!)
Next apply the same concept to the chord tones of the Major 7 chord:
Experiment with different rhythmic variations and use the same process on minor 7 and V7 chords. As you can see, the addition of a simple approach note allows you to create a number of musical possibilities using only chord tones.
Trick #5: Enclosures using upper and lower approach notes
One common musical device that utilizes approach notes are enclosures.
Simply approaching a goal note from above and below. Here is an example of a common line that uses the enclosure of chord tones:
In this example a diatonic upper neighbor and chromatic lower neighbor are used to approach the chord tones of the C Major7 chord.
Learn the pattern above in all 12 keys. Then practice approaching chord tones only from above and alternating between both upper and lower approach notes.
Check out the Charlie Parker line below over Anthropology that uses this pattern:
More music, less theory…
When you learn the basics of music theory it's easy to forget that the goal of all this information is to make music.
You've memorized those scales and triads and chords, but now you've got to create a solo that people want to listen to.
Approach notes are an easy way to add melodic and rhythmic interest to these otherwise static sounds.
Your job is to take these 5 tricks and apply them to the tunes you're practicing. Use approach notes with:
- Major triads
- Diatonic triads
- The chord tones of chords
- Major 7th Chords
- Enclosures
In a short amount of time you'll be able to create interesting melodic content with only a few notes. You'll be thinking of a melodic line instead of plain old music theory.
It's a small device that will make a huge difference in all of your solos – give it a shot!Print This Post

Why do lawyers always want to have phone apps?
Here's one from "top US criminal attorney" Ralph Behr:
Top US criminal attorney Ralph Behr is pleased to announce the release and immediate availability of his iPhone/iPad book Say No to Police. Using 21st century e-book functionalities the app puts at fingertips hundreds of one paragraph criminal law concepts. This new app is available for Apple and Android devices, makes simple what was complex and answers every legal question at the touch of a finger.Why stop at one paragraph?
I'd like tweet-limited criminal law concepts to be streamed directly to my brain, my "home page" so to speak, so I can know enough about any legal topic just to be dangerous or provocative, without any actual knowledge or meaningful understanding of anything I might have at my fingertips or accessible immediately on my phone.

App of the Week: Five Ways to Improve the Facebook App
Dear Mark, please improve the Facebook app. Sincerely, Everyone.
App: Facebook Platforms: All Smart Phones Web site: Facebook.com Cost: Free
Facebook has become such a part of the way most people connect online, it's hard to imagine that the app Mark Zuckerberg and company produce could fall so flat. Many people spend hours every day looking at and commenting on the feeds and photos of friends and sharing their own status updates, links, photos and videos. Unfortunately, many of those things are difficult to do on the app version of the social networking giant.
It would be one thing if the Facebook app were simply not feature-rich. Packing all the features of the Web site into an app is very likely not possible. But there are features missing from the app that would seem to be pretty standard parts of the Facebook experience. Frankly, if you guys at Facebook can come up with a usable interface for feature phones, you certainly can improve your app for smart phones. Here is our list of the five basic features we'd like to see in the next Facebook app update.

5. Do something about notification and photo bugs Notifications and photos are terribly buggy on the Facebook app. Often, notifications will not appear in the app even though you can see them on the Web site. Links to tagged photos routinely go to the wrong photo, and going straight to a photo often generates a connection error. Not only is it frustrating, it's unacceptable for a company as large as "The Book."
4. Create an interface for editing user information Choosing to edit personal information in the Facebook app returns an interface just like the Web site. In fact, it appears that all the app does is open a browser window and log you into Facebook online. If they can build an interface for everything else, it would seem logical to build an app interface for this. That way, you can drunkenly update your relationship status at 3 a.m. from outside the bar quickly and easily.
3. Allow users to create events While there is a case to be made that events are an undertaking more worthy of the Web, the ability to create an event through the app should be no more difficult than creating a photo album, which is a feature the app does offer. Viewing, responding to and even posting on the wall of events is possible. Creating an event should be, too.
2. Tagging users in status updates Since we mentioned the whole using an @ to tag a person in a status update earlier, why not come up with a way to add a user name to a status update so it posts to both my wall and his/her wall? You guys are smart. Figure it out already.
1. Let us share links This may be something that needs to get wrapped directly into smart phone technology on the whole, but a way to share a link that doesn't involve using the Web site interface is a must. At the very least, give users the option of copying and pasting a link into a status update and leaving a comment. This is one of the main functions of status updates on the Web. It should be for the app as well.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 16/8/2013 (1467 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A former high-ranking Manitoba Hells Angel has launched a legal battle with the federal government, claiming corrections officials are trampling his fundamental rights by refusing to let him have accelerated parole.
When Sean Sebastian Wolfe plea-bargained with the Crown in 2010 and got a nine-year sentence for his role in a cocaine-trafficking conspiracy, he did so knowing speedy parole provisions were in place at the time for non-violent offenders, and he'd be eligible for release after serving one-sixth of his time.
But instead, his lawyer told the Free Press Friday, federal corrections officials and Wolfe's parole officers have repeatedly denied him what's called an accelerated parole review (APR) because Parliament repealed the process when bringing in more restrictive parole laws in March 2011.
The government also retroactively applied the new legislation to hundreds of already-sentenced federal inmates who may have qualified for APR, including Wolfe, Stephan Thliveris said. "They won't even let him put in the documents," said Thliveris.
Effectively, Wolfe is illegally being punished twice -- now by corrections officials -- for a crime he's already been convicted of and sentenced by a court for, Thliveris charged.
'Every day he's in jail is a day he shouldn't be' -- lawyer Stephan Thliveris
By October, Wolfe will have reached two years past what he thought would be his APR full parole date.
"Every day he's in jail is a day he shouldn't be," said Thliveris.
Wolfe has filed a Court of Queen's Bench application seeking several rulings, including for ones stating the government has violated his charter rights not to be punished twice, as well as to not be unreasonably deprived of freedom.
"It's horrifying that the government would step on someone's rights like this," Thliveris said.
Under the prior legislation, Wolfe only had to satisfy the parole board they had no reasonable grounds to believe he was likely to commit a future violent crime.
Under 2011's Abolition of Early Parole Act, that all changed.
An inmate sentenced for a non-violent crime today, for example, only becomes eligible for day parole at six months before one-third of their sentence is served, and the parole board can nix any prospect of release if they find any risk of an inmate reoffending in any way.
Wolfe is also asking the court to sanction his immediate release from prison and is seeking $80,000 in financial compensation due to income he lost by not being able to work in the months he claims he should have been out of custody.
Wolfe was a key police target in 2009's Project Divide, which saw police pay $450,000 to an undercover informant to help capture audio and video insider surveillance of dozens of drug and weapons deals.
Police charged 33 members and associates of the Hells Angels following the year-long project.
At the time, Wolfe was a longtime Hells associate who had been promoted from the Zig Zag Crew, the so-called puppet club of the biker gang.
Thliveris said the 36-year-old has renounced all ties to the gang. "He's no longer a member," he said.
Wolfe's parole case has merit, judging from recent legal rulings coming down elsewhere in Canada.
Currently, a Supreme Court showdown on this exact issue is tentatively set for mid-October as the federal government appeals a November 2012 B.C. Court of Appeal ruling that came down in favour of virtually identical battles fought by three inmates in that province.
A panel of three top justices and a lower-court judge concurred the inmates were effectively being "punished again" for their crimes and the new parole provisions breached their fundamental rights.
In that case, lawyers for Canada's attorney general came to court to defend its legislation, but lost.
According to the Appeal Court's decision, the attorney general argued "the purpose of the repeal of APR was not punitive but to better achieve correctional goals of rehabilitation, reintegration into the community, public safety and public confidence in the administration of justice."
Thliveris predicts nationally, there's going to be a steady stream of applications similar to Wolfe's tabled in court in the future.
"It's going to turn into a tidal wave of 200 to 300 inmates," he said.

BENDIGO trainer Shaun Dwyer was busy buying juveniles in New Zealand when he achieved a long-awaited ambition at Moonee Valley - the second career victory of his favourite stayer Anudjawun.
Dwyer has always had a high opinion of the galloper, from the time he won his maiden at his second start in May, 2010.
Anudjawun is now eight, and he went into the modest 3000m race with a record of one win and 14 placings from 39 starts.
Along the way he has shown Dwyer he has quality. He was runner-up in the Group 2 Chairman's Handicap (2600m) at Randwick and third in the Lexus Stakes at Flemington in 2011, and fifth in the Group 1 Sydney Cup (3200m) the following year.
These days he has slipped down the ratings. He had the benefit of carrying 4kg less than the top-weight Thubiaan ($6.50) and that was decisive as he won the two-horse war by a neck, with a staggering six lengths further back to Master's Degree ($15)
Starting at $9, Anudjawun sat behind the leader, $3 race favourite Brayroan, before Nikita McLean made her move to ensure a genuine staying test in what was a masterful ride.
"When Thubiaan kept coming I thought, oh no, don't be beaten again!" she said.
"I was just hoping his staying ability kicked in and he had a bit of a weight advantage and just got there."
She was aboard Anudjawun when he finished second at the Valley a fortnight ago over 2500m.
Thubiaan, trained by Chris Waller, also was brilliantly ridden by Patrick Moloney and was outstanding given the 4kg he had to concede.
Brayroan went to the lead because of the slow pace early but was under pressure at the 80m. He battled on to finish sixth.
It was a disappointing start to the day for Glen Boss. His ride, hot favourite Mokoro, was scratched in the opening event for three-year-old fillies and Brayroan ran well below expectations.
It didn't improve when Xavi, the $3.10 favourite in the Tony Beddison Cup, failed to flatter and finished sixth after leading to the 400m.
Lord Wimble ($9) took his record to 10 wins from 33 starts when he ran on strongly to defeat Lord Durante ($3.30) by a long neck with Outlandish Lad ($6.50) a length away third.

The hardest part about being a mom. . .and especially as a mom of multiples. . .is that my children seem to talk to me at the same time. This phenomena is very similar to when you watch someone check their phone and almost instinctively you have to check yours as well. Or maybe like a yawn. . .talking for them is contagious. Once they hear or sense (because they could be in a totally different part of the house) someone talking to me they also have something to say that cannot wait.
Usually (okay, every day) the scene unfolds like this: Child #1 starts talking and right when he is at a complicated part (because none of these stories are easy) then Child #2 begins his story. This almost becomes like a musical round except it is not the same song started in different places.
Child #2 completely disregards that I'm making eye contact with his brother AND nodding my head. But, I unconsciously break eye contact with the Child #1 because I have to make Child #2 stop so I can hear Child #1. Child #1, though, has become indignant because I'm not listening AND looking at him and starts yelling, MOM! YOU AREN'T LISTENING TO ME! and I have to turn and apologize but I never finished telling Child#2 that Child#1 was talking and so Child #2 continues even while Child #1 is now yelling at me.
But, wait, there is more. A third child arrives on the scene and I'm trying to listen to Child #1 while saying, "Just a minute, let him finish. . ." to Child #2. Child #3 starts chanting "Mom. Mom. Mom. Mom. Mom. Mom" while tapping me on the arm with his pointer finger.
Oh. . .you know that I have two more children don't you?
I actually do okay with this scene right when they come home from school because I've had some quiet time and I'm ready for the Hoover Dam of words to break through. But, by the time bedtime arrives, I honestly can't listen any longer. Please.Don't.Talk.To.Me.Just.Go.To.Sleep.
At this point in the bedtime routine I'm trying to do something, like give medication to one child, while I listen to another child explain why we need "a sandbox that actually sinks underground but has these tube things that sand can pulsate from under the box and that then go around and then back down. . ." (And, that my friends is the actual transcript from one of tonight's conversations. . .or rather monologues because usually they just want to tell me something and it really isn't a conversation per say, as in "Hey, how was your day, Mom?"–and then wait for me to answer.)
As mom's we develop coping skills. I once watched a comedian who has Asperger's Syndrome explain that he could look like he was following a conversation if he just repeated back the last three words that a speaker spoke. I've adopted this method and it works like a charm.
Dylan: And. . then when I'm a firefighter and I'm driving the pumper truck and I'm visiting a school to tell the kids about fire safety and let them climb in my firetruck but only if they listened and were good and only the adult would get to use the blue chemicals to put out the fire. (Pause for air.)
Me: (hearing a break) To put out the fire? (Okay, that was five words but you get my drift.)
Dylan: Yeah. The blue chemicals they use. (No, I have no idea what he is talking about. . . but it doesn't matter and no, I don't think I should be worried that the word "chemical" was used)
By the end of the bedtime routine. . .when it looks like they are all tucked in AND QUIET. . .Scott and I venture downstairs. We don't talk. It is as if we pull the quietness around us like a blanket.
Really I do try to appreciate that it won't always be like this. That during the teenage years I might forget the sound of their voices as they withdraw into their own teenage worlds. Or, when earbuds will be constantly tucked into the pockets of their ears. I will probably yearn for the sandbox invention explanation or the firefighter-presenting-at-preschool description.
And, really, maybe THAT is the hardest thing about motherhood. So often it is all. . .or nothing.

This webinar offers a simple framework for rethinking your approach to making hiring and promotion decisions.
New research shows that only 50% of selection decisions are considered a win-win for the hiring manager and the candidate. And, only one-third of organizations use validated tools to help them make better decisions. That's sad, because more than any other talent strategy, validated tools provide a great return on investment.
"These webinars continue to provide a quick snapshot of ideas and suggestions for improvement in the various HR activities we all manage."
"These webinars are efficient, informative and valuable for me to get current info and approaches to talent issues."
"I like the concentrated approach to the topic. Who doesn't have 30 minutes to spare in their day to learn about current trends on talent?"

But this is no ordinary strongman. Mariusz Pudzianowski is a Polish hero. He's also well schooled in MMA. So when he got into the ring with fellow countryman Paweł Rak AKA 'Popek Monster', Pudzianowski finished him with ease.
Rak is a big guy, but he's not a pro fighter. So he did well to last the minute he did. The fight was only really granted because he'd been shooting his mouth off so much, the KSW – and everyone else – kinds wanted to see him beat up a bit!
Popek Monster had fought professionally before, but that was a good eight years ago and his rustiness showed on the night…

This film is directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Mahesh Bhatt. Though the plot of the film is not clear yet, it is set to have elements of drama and romance. This film is scheduled for release in June 2015.
Emraan Hashmi stars alongside Vidya in this romantic flick and the duo is all set to complete a few required shots in the city of Kolkata. The entire film will mainly be shot in Dubai, US and India.
It has been reported that this film will be based on Mahesh Bhatt's life, although these reports haven't been confirmed yet. Vidya was last seen in 'Bobby Jasoos' which received mixed reviews from the audience and critics and performed moderately well at the box-office.

This soup is delicious and warming. One chicken thigh, a few carrots, a couple of sticks of celery, a medium onion, and some lovely mushrooms - hey presto wonderful mushroom soup. You could use left over Christmas turkey instead of chicken. It's foolproof.
I kept the chicken from the stock for my next recipe, Mini stuffed peppers. So keep the veg and chicken to stuff the peppers. If you have your own favourite stock recipe, use that instead of mine. It needs to be a good strong one as mushrooms can be bland.

FORTUNE -- Smartphone sales, like presidential debates, are a game of expectations -- although in the case of Apple's (aapl) iPhone 5, it's one the analysts played but the company didn't.
In its Monday morning press release, Apple merely announced that it sold a record 5 million iPhone 5s in the three days after Friday morning's launch, selling out its initial supply. That compares with 4 million iPhone 4S units sold in the same time period last year.
"Demand for iPhone 5 has been incredible and we are working hard to get an iPhone 5 into the hands of every customer who wants one as quickly as possible," said Tim Cook. "We appreciate everyone's patience."
The market was not so patient. The stock opened at $686.91, down $13.18 (1.9%) from Friday's close, and the analysts who had predicted sales as high as 10 million units had some explaining to do.
Below: Excerpts from the notes to clients we've seen so far. As new ones come in, we'll put them on top.
Wells Fargo's Maynard Um: Good, Not Great? No, It Could Still Be Great. "We would note that (1) Apple will have 20 more country launches this Friday (9/28), where, based on our interpretation, means there have been no iPhone 5s sold yet in those countries (though Apple should recognize these as revenue because of its sell-in recognition policy), (2) our expectation was lower and also incorporated lower iPhone 4S sales due to the 5 launch (hence, we still believe there is upside potential to our estimates), and (3) while it may make sense to assume units below 6 million units sold over the first three days (the interpretation of "over 5 million" sold), Apple has, in the past, also been conservative in its interpretation."
Barclay's Ben Reitzes: iPhone 5 Seeing Significant Constraints, As We Expected. "We believe the key issue in today's shipment data is in-cell supply constraints. Today's announcement fits with our view that Apple would only be able to ship limited quantities in the September quarter; we expect a solid production ramp and improved availability in C4Q12. Our Asia team believes Apple has improved the sensitivity of its in-cell screens via a firmware update. As a result the visibility for iPhone 5 has improved and we believe there is less downside risk to production numbers going forward."
BMO Capital Market's Keith Bachman: Our view. "We believe iPhone 5 supply is the issue, not demand. Consistent with past launches, most of the iPhone sales are being fulfilled by Apple directly, including online, instead of retail partners. iPhones sold directly by Apple are recognized on a ship-in basis, or only upon customer receipt of the product, while iPhones sold to retail partners are recognized on a ship-out basis. Hence, the actual number of selling days of the iPhone 5 in the September Q may be fewer than the nine days, if most of the phones require two to three days of shipping."
Merrill Lynch's Scott Craig: Positive view on iPhone 5 cycle intact; Maintain Buy. "Apple shares are underperforming [Monday] (down 1%+ vs. the S&P 500's -0.3%), as the 5mn+ iPhone 5 units sold over the past weekend were below the Street's heightened expectations. We believe most were expecting 6-10mn units over the first weekend, which, in our view, at the high end, did not fully take into consideration the limited initial supply. We believe overall demand remains strong and our estimates reflect most of these supply constraints, leading us to maintain our Buy rating and our above-consensus estimates."
Topeka Capital's Brian White (Tuesday follow-up): Don't Be Fooled by 3-Day iPhone 5 Tally, This is an Epic Launch. "In light of yesterday's softer than expected iPhone 5 sales over the first three days in retail stores, we thought it would be helpful to put this launch into perspective versus the iPhone 4S on a few other metrics. We believe indicators such as 24-hour pre-orders for the iPhone 5 vs. the 4S, along with pre-order sell out time, post pre-order shipping time and time to sell out at retail stores are more indicative of the strength of the iPhone 5 cycle than yesterday's three-day sales number that we believe was held back by supply constraints." See here.
Stifel and Nicholaus's Aaron C. Rakers: iPhone 5 Launches To Massive Crowds and Positive Reviews; Raising Estimates. "Apple is clearly benefiting from a quicker international launch for iPhone 5 (nine launch countries and 22 more countries in one week) versus 4S (seven launch countries and 22 more countries in two weeks), as well as media attention which has fueled already-robust enthusiasm for iPhone 5. Our analysis, however, suggests that store stock-outs and confirmed shipment delays of 3-4 weeks for online orders will limit unit shipments for C3Q12 to our 21.7mn estimate. That said, with broadening evidence of favorable customer demand we are raising our C4Q12 iPhone unit estimate from 47.4mn to 48.9mn (in-line with consensus) and our CY13 unit estimate from 171.7mn to 172.9mn."
ISI Group's Brian Marshall: Clarification to Quick Thoughts on AAPL's Opening Weekend iPhone 5 Sales. "We expected 6-8 million over the opening weekend... Clarification - recall the 5mil+ iPhone 5 reported sales only takes into consideration: 1) what was sold into partners (e.g., retail outlets, carriers, etc.), 2) sold in AAPL retail stores, and 3) direct to customers only if they signed for the device. Importantly, this doesn't take into consideration units in delivery direct to customers (i.e., AAPL must have signature of acceptance by customer before it is counted as a sale) and we estimate units in transit could be in the millions currently. We believe the negative pre-market action in AAPL (i.e., down ~2%) is an over-reaction and would be buyers of the stock here."
Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster: Launch Weekend Figures Impeded by Availability. "This morning Apple announced the sale of 5 million iPhone 5s in the first weekend compared to our 8 million estimate (6-10 million range). We believe there are two factors that negatively impacted the number. First, our sales expectation assumed that Apple would include all phones pre-ordered online. We believe that this may have been up to 1 million additional units as units pre-ordered after the middle of the first day were projected to be available in October. Second, we noted 1.25 days of Apple Retail inventory compared to 2.5 days during the 4S launch. Our 8 million estimate assumed full weekend availability and the counting of all online pre-orders. We believe that if supply were not a constraint and Apple included all pre-orders, the launch weekend number would have been closer to 7-8 million, assuming ~1 million October pre-order sales and an additional 1-2 million units at retail."
Sterne Agee's Shaw Wu: Classic Case of Unrealistically High Expectations. "We are not overly concerned with this 'disappointing' number as we believe this is a classic case of near-term expectations getting out of touch with reality. We find it unfortunate that some analysts continue to publish irresponsible estimates without taking into account realistic demand trends and potential supply constraints on new in-cell touchscreens."
Topeka Capital's Brian White: Three Day iPhone 5 Sales Top 5 Million but Supply Holds Back More Sales. "This morning, Apple announced that iPhone 5 sales exceeded 5 million during the first three days of retail availability and below our expectations (we were at the lower end of expectations). We believe this shortfall is largely due to supply availability and the fact that most consumers are opting for the pre-order option. We remain aggressive buyers of Apple on any weakness in the stock price this morning as we believe Apple has another blockbuster on its hands with the iPhone 5 and we expect the "iPad Mini" to launch in the coming weeks."
Asymco's Horace Dediu, who had predicted first weekend sales of 6 million, offered five points by e-mail:
1. They were only able to offer 25% more units over the launch weekend than what they could offer with the 4S. That implies that either they are not fully ramped or their ramp started later than last year. This could be because it's a new product vs. last year's modest changes from the 4 or it could be that they are constrained on components.
2. In retrospect it seems they knew they would be constrained in the opening because they did not expand the footprint from last year. The country count went up by 2 but did not add big countries.
3. The demand is far higher than last year given the higher number of pre-orders and anecdotal counts of people waiting in line.
4. The capex story implies that production should be at double the rate from last year, but that does not help with launch. If they produce twice as much but have half the lead time then the product on hand is the same as last year. I suspect the ramp is a bit slower than they had hoped. The press release seems apologetic about them not being able to meet demand.
5. They are more aggressive in terms of country launches by end of year so maybe they will make up for the shortfalls during the fourth.

I'm here to report that I completed emptying 1 laundry basket. I've put it underneath another basket so I don't get tempted to fill it again. It was 1/2 dirty clothes, 1/2 clean.
I put the clean clothes into my dresser drawer.
There were some winter clothes in it: scarves, mitts, hat, stuff I could have used a month ago. I have no real place to store that stuff yet so I moved it onto the futon in the other room for now. I'll be able to get at the closet when I finish clearing the stuff off the floor.
The dirty clothes are being washed now.
I started a donate bag. I have 6 or 7 things in it now plus I am donating the bathroom toiletries set that is too big and clunky for the small side cabinet I have.
I also started a garbage bag and put in my only pair of jeans that I (sadly. sigh) wore through at the inner thigh. I had thought I would out grow these jeans before that happened. Out grow as in they would have been way too big by now. Instead they were getting tight again. Oh well. That's my reality for today.
*credit moi for getting at it. 5 days until it gets picked up.
Another laundry basket tomorrow.

Cheesy Tomato Soup With Potatoes
Recipe by Nasseh
After modifying another recipe I came up with this wonderful soup. It tastes even better the second day.
Top Review by breezermom
I ate this soup on the first day, so I don't know now if it will be better the next day. Tonight I had it for dinner and I liked it, but didn't love it. I diced fresh potatoes and cooked them in the chicken broth and water. Other than that I made the recipe exactly as stated. It may be that I prefer a "regular" tomato soup or a regular "potato" soup; maybe that is why I didn't love it. I'll try it again on the second day to see if that makes it a 5 star recipe! Thanks for the totally different take on tomato soup.

Humanity at Its Worst
The Holocaust.
The Holocaust was not just hate or injustice, but showing how evil the human race is. Jews, mental and physical disabled peoples lives thrown into a long everlasting life of death, as if they where nothing but a grain of dirt. Children striped from there mothers knowing that they mite not ever see them again.
Death Marches
Death Marches where where prisoners of war walked till they could not walk any more and were then left to die as they fell to the ground. Women, children, and families walked to there death because of there religion, there likes and dislikes, and because they where disabled.
The Nazis stared the Death Matches for 1 main purpose. They needed to evacuate the concentration camps. The purpose for evacuation was because Reichsfuehrer SS did not want the prisoners to fall into enemy hands alive and tell them about the stores of the camps. SS also thought that he could keep the the Jews, and use them to make peace with the west and use them like a bargain. At that point in time they used trains planes and boats to evacuate but where soon shut down by opposing forces. people where then forced to walk to evacuate.
In this picture you can see in this death march a lot of people died because they where to tired to walk, and local families are digging graves for them. Many people think about the camps but a lot of deaths where cause because of death marches. sisters picked up siblings and waked with them in there arms just so they could give others a chance.

Now Available on DVD in the USA: Abdoulaye Dao's Comedy An Uncommon Woman
Official selection, African Diaspora Film Festival 2010
Now available on DVD
NEW YORK CITY - An Uncommon Woman by Burkinabe filmmaker Abdoulaye Dao is now available on DVD in the USA.
Mina is tired of her husband's infidelity and decides to take a drastic decision: She takes a second husband.
Based on his conversations with women involved in polygamist relationships, he illustrates - to very funny effects - the daily life of two persons - in this case two men - who share a spouse. On a comedic tone, Abdoulaye Dao tells us a story of jealousy, infidelity, romance and revenge.
An Uncommon Woman-Une Femme Pas Comme Les Autres- was a success in its native Burkina Faso and is cast with some the best actors of Burkinabe cinema.
Abdoulaye Dao was born in Burkina Faso. He studied at the Institut african d'éducation cinématographique in Ouagadougou and then at INA-Institut National Audivisuel - in France. He is the director of the series Quand les elephants se battent that received the Grand Prix for a Best TV Series in FESPACO 2007.
Burkina Faso, 2009, 101 minutes, comedy, French with English subtitles, Abdoulaye Dao, dir.

For years, New Green Bo (now Nice Green Bo) was the first Chinese restaurant I ran to (sometimes even before checking into my hotel) when I arrived in NYC. Now that I've moved here, it seems the food has really deteriorated. On my last three visits, dishes have been sloppily prepared, over-salted and have tasted strongly of raw garlic. The other night's Double-Sauteed Pork was particularly awful, as were the fried dumplings, with skins much thicker and tougher than they've ever been.
Oh well, with ten gazillion other Chinese restaurants to choose from, I'm sure I can find a couple of other places I like. I wonder if a change of management along with the new name accounts for the decline in the food. Anyone else have a similar experience here?

Here's a roundup of this week's headlines from the data center and hosting industry:
Dell announces intent to acquire InSite One. Dell announced its intent to acquire cloud-based medical archiving leader InSite One to help healthcare organizations simplify retention of healthcare data. This news comes a little over a week after the announcement that Dell is acquiring Compellent. Dell's Unified Clinical Archive (UCA) solution will gain the advantage of a 'private cloud archive' and storage as a service through the InSite One acquisition. "We are dramatically simplifying archiving and retention of clinical data, both medical images and electronic medical records. This will allow our customers to improve care and support medical innovation through the efficient use of IT, and we're doing it in a way that actually simplifies access to the information when it's needed by clinicians," said James Coffin, Ph.D., vice president of Dell Healthcare and Life Sciences.
SUNY moves to the Microsoft Cloud. Microsoft (MSFT) announced a new university-wide agreement with the State University of New York (SUNY) to make the Microsoft Live@edu suite of online communications and collaboration tools available. With 465,000 students at SUNY the university will meet the challenge of keeping students up to date by giving them access to online software, including hosted e-mail, calendars, online storage, Office Web Apps, instant messaging, document sharing and videoconferencing, among other services. Across the 64 campuses 70,000 students within SUNY are already taking advantage of Live@edu.
Red Hat reports third quarter results. Red Hat (RHT) announced financial results for the fiscal year 2011 third quarter, ending November 30, 2010. Subscription revenue was up 21 percent for the quarter at $198.8 million, with total revenue at $235.6 million. "Top line growth of 21% and even faster operating income growth, contributed to a 31% increase in operating cash flow," stated Charlie Peters, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Red Hat. "We are well positioned at the confluence of several hot areas of IT; open source, virtualization and cloud computing." GAAP Operating income was up 92 percent year-over-year at $38 million. Operating cash flow jumped 31 percent to $71 million from the prior year. Last week open source private cloud platform Eucalyptus Systems partnered with Red Hat to provide Eucalyptus support for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization and Eucalyptus compatibility with the Apache Deltacloud application programming interface. Motley Fool analyzes third quarter results as well as interviews CEO Jim Whitehurst about their attack plan on the mature server platform industry.

For the price this is a very good option for comfort and great access to lifts, restaurants, ski rentals, etc. Indoor parking is also a plus.

The tub in the master was clogged. Lack of attention to routine maintenance there. Also, the toaster was broken. Ditto lack of maintenance. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant stay.

Great deal for the moneyPosted Jul 8, 2012 on Hotels
This 2 bedroom condo was a great deal at the price. It was wonderful to have a kitchen and the condo was very clean. Unfortunately there were almost thirty dollars in taxes and fees added on, which was unexpected.

East Village at Copper - close, but nothing elsePosted Jan 19, 2011 on Hotels
Okay, so the best part is you're right on the slopes. Ski up and drop stuff off on the patio. Great restaurant in the inn! Shuttles to Center Village are easy to use and frequent. But, here's the bad: -The room was VERY small. -The maid did not come at all. It's their "policy". Sorry, but at this price, I shouldn't have to make my own bed and find the dumpster to throw out garbage. We ran out of towels. -The bathroom was particularly small and dark. -The water tasted like metal. -The bed was uncomfortable, old, and springy. -The place felt dirty and smelled funny, especially when we lifted up the covers to look under the bed. -No front desk. If you can put up with this stuff to be close to the Super Bee, then go for it.

There are several East Village lodging possibilities. East Village is a great location for skiing Copper Mountain. It is within easy walking distance to the SuperBee lift (no beginner ski runs). The area includes the Double Diamond restaurant and bar. Other restaurants and bars are within walking distance or by shuttle bus. Ski rentals are available. Most parking is outdoors. East Village is connected to Center Village and Union Creek areas of Copper Mountain by shuttle bus. East Village has less activity than Center Village, and offers a quieter environment.

I am looking for a #0 or#00 piping tip. I just have Wilton suppliers around here and online, most don't carry those sizes. If they do they are the Supatube which runs around $4.50 or more each. Anybody have a more reasonable source for tips?
2 replies
Try to see if you can find PME piping tips online I use them all the time and they do have the 0 and even the 00 which is very super fine.
They are a bit on the expensive side but the quality from PME producht are great.
Bakerycrafts .com has both 0 and 00

INTERIM joint coach Derek Traynor has given a positive assessment of Saints' two Easter displays.
But nobody is getting carried away and there is no room for slips or complacency ahead of Friday's trip to bottom-placed Widnes Vikings.
Saints produced a terrific display with 12 men at Wigan and then backed up with win over leaders Castleford.
Traynor said: "The two points were vital on Monday.
"The performance against Wigan was very good, with 12 men, but you come away with no points.
"Then you play a red-hot Cas side that is scoring points for fun.
"We were desperate to get the win to give us something to build on, go forward and start fighting our way up the league.
"We are are not happy where we are and is not something we are used to.
"Anxiety builds up and to be fair the lads in the dressing room said they could feel the anxiety out there because they need the points so much. That showed at times in the performance.
"Cas had earmarked this game because they had not won here since 1992, they came to play but we were desperate for the points and wanted to get something out of Easter after all the hard work."
One of the highlights of the weekend was the form of debutant Regan Grace.
The young Welshman scored in both games and had the crowd on its feet.
Having seen Grace develop through the junior ranks since heading north, Traynor is better placed than most to judge how to handle the new crowd favourite.
Traynor added: "Regan is a level headed, down to earth kid so he will not get carried away with it.
"He knows he has got a lot of work to do. He has got a lot of work to do.
"He is a great athlete with a lot going for him, but he is not the finished article yet and he knows that himself.
"He has good staff here working with him.
"Our job is to turn him into a ten-year Saints Super League player, but he has a long way to go to that.
"He is going to have some hiccups and some bumps along the way, and knocks to his confidence.
"That is when he will need the fans to get behind him and I am sure they will, but hopefully we can turn him that 10-year Saint."
When Jonny Lomax returns to fitness, probably for the Leigh game, that will leave Saints with a real selection conundrum.
But that is what the club wants.
Traynor added: "We want that all over the park where senior players think 'some of these kids are a threat to me'.
"We want those kids going in thinking they can nail down a shirt if they are on form.
"We want that all over the park."
There is now real pressure on jerseys and the staff have made it clear there are no favourites.
"The lads are looking at themselves.
"In general this year we have put in two decent performances then dropped off against what you would not class as top teams.
"We can't afford to do that.
"We are chasing that top four and we have got to put a run of games together we cant allow ourselves to drop our intensity and standards that we have set over Easter.
"We will take every game as it comes and prepare for it, but ultimately we want to put a run together, build some momentum and get points off the teams above us and around us.
"As a coaching team that is what we are going to putting into the lads.
"But ultimately they know they need to perform to keep that shirt."
Saints' game at Widnes kicks off at 8pm, that is followed the week later by a home game versus Leigh.

Industrial Policy and Economic Transformation in Africa
- Overview
The revival of economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa is all the more welcome for having followed one of the worst economic disasters--a quarter century of economic malaise for most of the region--since the industrial revolution. Six of the world's fastest-growing economies in the first decade of this century were African. Yet only in Ethiopia and Rwanda was growth not based on resources and the rising price of oil. Deindustrialization has yet to be reversed, and progress toward creating a modern economy remains limited.
This book explores the vital role that active government policies can play in transforming African economies. Such policies pertain not just to industry. They traverse all economic sectors, including finance, information technology, and agriculture. These packages of learning, industrial, and technology (LIT) policies aim to bring vigorous and lasting growth to the region. This collection features case studies of LIT policies in action in many parts of the world, examining their risks and rewards and what they mean for Sub-Saharan Africa.

Ramires backs Blues to advance
Ramires is confident Chelsea can score the two goals they need to beat Napoli and progress to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
Last Updated: 10/03/12 6:19pm
Ramires is confident Chelsea can score the two goals they need to beat Napoli and progress to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
The Blues are looking to become one of a handful of teams to overturn a two-goal first-leg deficit when they resume their last-16 tie with Walter Mazzarri's men on Wednesday.
They were written off by many after their 3-1 defeat at the San Paolo stadium two-and-a-half weeks ago in what was the death throes of Andre Villas-Boas' reign.
Turn around
Since then, much has happened to give Chelsea hope they may be able to turn the tie around.
Caretaker manager Roberto Di Matteo's first game in charge against Birmingham in the FA Cup saw them stop the rot that had set in under Villas-Boas, while Arsenal went agonisingly close to overhauling a 4-0 first-leg deficit against AC Milan.
More importantly, Napoli also shipped three goals in Friday night's Serie A game against Cagliari.
Unfortunately, they also scored six, racking up their sixth successive victory in the process to go into Wednesday night's game in arguably their best form of the season.
But Chelsea midfielder Ramires has refused to be intimidated, pointing out his side beat Valencia 3-0 in their last must-win Champions League game in December.
He told Chelsea's official matchday programme: "We had our opportunities to score in Naples and we didn't take them, but I think if we play well, we will have lots more chances to score at home - especially with the support of our fans.
"I think back to December, when we won the games against Newcastle, Valencia and Manchester City with some excellent performances.
"I don't think it's too difficult to score two goals - or maybe even more - at home, so that makes me confident we can go through to the next round."
Despite watching his side net six times on Friday night, Napoli boss Mazzarri is far from happy going into next week's trip to Stamford Bridge.
He said: "I got angry because, even if the result was safe, we shouldn't have conceded the last two goals.
"We cannot relax even for a second, because that way we concede. We've got to reflect on that.
"I am not worried about Chelsea, but the fact is we cannot afford similar defensive errors against Chelsea."

Board President Robin Manzo noted that each of the retirees has been teaching for more than 20 years. And, after the board presented gifts to them, Manzo displayed the cover of a self-help book she recently read, "The Four Agreements,' ' by Don Miguel Ruiz. She said those now closing their current careers have embodied the "Agreements" referred to in the title, and that these teachers, in turn, have imparted them to their students.
Author Ruiz is a physician and surgeon who nearly died in an auto crash that, he said, changed his life. As a result, Ruiz became enthralled with the teachings of the ancient Toltec civilization of Mexico, from which he claims descent, and thus felt compelled to convey its tenets through his book.
Manzo read aloud the "Four Agreements" of the Toltecs: "Be impeccable with yo ur word, say only what you mean. Don't take things personally, others' opinions have nothing to do with us. Don't make assumptions, have the courage to ask what another means. Always do your best, thus avoiding self-condemnation and experiencing no regret." She added, "And you teachers do all of these things every day."
Class Size
Jammed into the Stevenson School library for the meeting were active and retiring teachers, along with many parents. One woman, who identified herself as the mother of an incoming kindergarten student, told the board of rumors she had heard indicating her daughter's class in the fall could have anywhere from 96 to 108 children. She said this raised her concern about possible overcrowding.
Manzo said the number of incoming kindergarten students is expected to be 98, but by midsummer a more firm count for all classes should become available.
Board member Vinnie Devito told parents he has observed during his three years of service thus far on the school board that the main concern of all its members has been keeping the number of students per classroom low.
A father in the audience asked what the board would consider to be the maximum a cceptable upper limit per classroom. Devito replied, "24 students per room would be borderline," adding that during the time his own four children passed through Fairfield's schools the number of students per classroom remained stable then, and even into the current 2000-2001 school year, at 18 to 22 throughout the district.
Affirming Manzo's statement, Schools Superintendent Barry A. Spagnoli said by the next board meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 7, the enrollment numbers should be more solid. He added, "If the kindergarten count holds at 98, we would be looking to add another session," resulting in 18 to 20 children per classroom.
Pressing the board further, another parent posed a doomsday scenario: "What would happen," she asked, "if, after the school year begins, an additional influx brings the total to 25, or even 26 students per classroom?"
Manzo replied, "We have teachers' aides." Spagnoli added that the state requires an aide when the kindergarten number reaches 28 per room.
New Hires
Teachers hired for the grades K-4 Stevenson School are: Susan Porter, pre-school; Christine Storch, kindergarten; Larissa Wilczak, fourth grade; Jaclyn Wasik, third grade; Carolyn Bachman, resource room; and Jennifer Perrone, first grade.
Hired for the grades 5 and 6 Churchill School are: Elizabeth Shovlowsky, resource room; and, Frank Sasso, fifth grade.
To serve both schools, Stacy Dellano will join the district to fill the social worker vacancy, and current teacher Helen Pires will devote full time to the speech needs of students. The board re-hired Jane Serpico to continue as substitute coordinator and assigned current basic skills teacher Barbara Baccollo to perform her duties at both Stevenson and Churchill schools by shuttling between them in the upcoming school year.

It includes the traditional elements that go into a strong look, such as a killer pair of trainers from New Balance and a crisp Oxford shirt. But the key component is this ace bomber jacket, which looks good worn open, buttoned up, or as something to lie if and when the sun decides to show. Finally, thinking men always carry a backpack like this one – perfect for shipping a few tinnies and a change of clothes for any spontaneous 'sleepovers'. So... is it the weekend yet?!

Real World Workers Get Virtual Payment via New Startup
With the U.S. economy the way it is, some people aren't too picky about what kind of work they get when they get it. And some are becoming less particular about the kind of compensation they receive in return, too.
Philip Rosedale, best known for founding the virtual world Second Life and the company that owns it, Linden Lab, has a new venture called Coffee & Power that gives real jobs to real people, but pays them in virtual money. The concept behind Coffee & Power is that it's an online space where people can hire one another to complete small tasks, but those that require some specialized skill.
While online employment marketplaces aren't anything new, Coffee & Power's use of an in-market currency, rather than real currency, is different than how other big names in the space, such as Amazon.com's Mechanical Turk or TaskRabbit, handle payment. When someone posts a job that they want completed in Coffee & Power, the listed price is given in Coffee dollars. Presently, one Coffee dollar is equivalent to $1 USD. New users can buy Coffee dollars with a credit card or PayPal, or complete jobs to earn them. And once a user has Coffee dollars saved up in his or her account, that credit can be used to pay for work the user needs completed.
The focus on an in-market economy isn't surprising coming from Rosedale. Part of what set Second Life apart from other massively multiplayer online spaces was the strength of its in-world economy. At Second Life's height, I even met a user who quit his day job because he was earning more money buying and selling virtual real estate in Second Life than he had been at his previous employer.
"As Second Life became successful, the thing that gave it real staying power was how people could come together and work together in ways that they couldn't before," Rosedale said when I spoke to him about the venture. But the problem with Second Life, he added, "is you have to already be engaged in Second Life, and that's its own barrier."
For small transactions, virtual currencies are very effective, and very easy, Rosedale explained. No one has to take out a credit card. Nothing is lost when Coffee dollars are used in exchange for work. But if a user wants to cash out for real money, the site takes a cut of the action: 15 percent. The system encourages people to trade for other services, rather than cash out and leave.
Coffee & Power only just launched today publicly, but it has been in beta for several months with 2,200 people and about $10,000 worth of work completed so far over 650 jobs (or "missions" as they're called on the site). An example of work that's being exchanged runs the gamut from getting a tutorial for using complex video editing software to sewing hand-made Halloween costumes. The site is open to the public as of today.
