The Rosemary Gastropub is a charming nod to British pub culture located in the heart of mainland Europe. Situated in Bastille, the chic gastropub is housed within a 19th century building and is decorated in a typically English style. Filled with feminine furnishings that feel entirely like a London locale, the Rosemary is considered the first British gastropub infused with the essence of Parisian life.
The space is characterized by recently revealed raw finishing such as exposed brick walls and floral William Morris wallpaper that accentuates the original art deco features. A rich array of textiles like that of the velvet covering the stools at the stand up bar add depth and a Parisian take on British pub culture. The Rosemary was designed by Studio Janréji in collaboration with French entrepreneur Julien Roques, who was fresh off a residency in London when the two conceived the idea.

Is husband liable for wife's $50,000 card debt?
After her death, he'll be affected, even if he doesn't owe
Ask a question.
Dear To Her Credit,
I have several credit cards with a total balance of $50,000. I have no problem making the minimum payments on them. In the event of my death, will my husband be responsible for those debts? He is not a joint or authorized user on the cards. -- Lynn
Dear Lynn,
Your husband is not automatically responsible for your credit card debt in the event of your death if he is not a joint account holder. That doesn't mean he's completely off the hook, however. And your debt will surely affect him, whether you die first or not.
First, if you live in a community property state, the credit card companies may pursue your husband for these debts. Community property states are Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin. Alaska allows you to opt in to a community property arrangement.
Even if you do not live in a community property state, if you die, any large debts of yours will probably affect your husband. When people die, everything they own becomes part of their estates -- including both assets and debts. Your cash, investments and other assets are generally included in your estate. You may have stipulated in your will that some or all of your assets go to your husband when you die. Your debts, including the $50,000 in credit card debt, must be paid before the remainder of your assets can be distributed. So even though your husband may not be directly responsible for your debts, he will generally receive less from your estate as a result of them.
I'd be more concerned about how $50,000 in credit card debt affects you and your husband while you are alive. Unless you have a very high income (and I'm assuming that's not so or you would have paid this off), it's almost impossible for you to make serious progress toward your financial goals while carrying a crushing load of debt.
The bigger your debt load becomes, the easier it is for it to grow even bigger. There's the interest expense, for one thing. When you have no debt, you'd be upset if your balance sneaks up to $10,000. With a $50,000 debt, what's the difference if it goes up to $60,000? In fact, you may be paying so much on minimum payments now that you feel like you have to put everyday expenses on your credit card.
I strongly urge you to pay off this debt -- as fast as you possibly can. Sell your car, work overtime or take a second job, sell the stuff you bought with your credit cards, stop eating out and buying clothes for now. Cook from scratch. Forget fancy vacations for now -- explore local sights or go tent camping. Consider taking money from savings, as long as you still maintain an emergency fund. If you need help figuring out how to pay off your debts, I recommend finding a nonprofit agency affiliated with the National Foundation for Credit Counseling or the Association of Independent Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies. They can be an enormous help as you get started and stay on track.
As a married couple, you're in this financial boat together. You can't tip over just one side of the boat. You may hit the icy water first, but he'll be right there with you soon enough. Take good care of yourself, your husband and your finances, and I hope you live a long time and reach your goals in life together.

The Chocolate Master (only the best job, ever) will even hold a short presentation on the workshop, demonstrating the tools and tricks of artisan chocolate making. After this, you'll then get hands on and even enjoy unlimited chocolate bon-bon tasting as you get to grips with the art form. You'll sample as you go and take home six hand-made chocolates, lovingly gift-wrapped, home. There'll also be a complimentary soft drink to wash all of that chocolate down with.

Over the past 10 to 20 years a deeper devotion with pet animals has also developed and in many cases animals are considered to be an equal part of the family. In some cases they may be the only companions an individual has.
Breakthroughs in the treatment of human cancer have received a lot of exposure through the news media, popular press, and web site information services. This has exposed pet owners to the treatment options available and promotes an atmosphere of optimism. Many owners need the psychological satisfaction of knowing that everything medically possible has been done to increase the quality and length of life of their pet.
As a result, the availability of quality health care to animals is of increasing importance to owners, and they are more often requesting state of the art therapies for their animals, such as radiation therapy.
The work of the Foundation has never been more important.
How companion animals can help solve cancer in humans
Companion animals have provided some important results, which have been successfully translated to improve the care of human and animal patients and expand our knowledge of malignant disease.
Tumour models are chosen which are comparable to human tumour counterparts where the animals can be treated with methods applicable to human cancer therapy. Studies in companion animals can provide indications of therapeutic gain much more rapidly than can be done in humans alone. They can also help define human trials, determine optimal dose, sequence, and frequency of treatments and help identify factors that influence response to treatments.
Most companion animal owners are highly committed and are actively seeking innovative and promising new therapies for their pets. When involved in comparative oncology research programs, animal owners are responsible for continued care and adherence to follow-up examinations. Generally, compliance with treatment and recheck visits is exceptional.
Our work is scrutinised. Trials are under strict Animal Ethics review. Studies and designed to effectively answer the questions asked by ensuring the numbers treated provide the necessary statistical power and that there are suitable controls. Above all we maintain the best quality of care for all our patients. Success in the work we do is a win for the patients, a win for future animal patients and a win for humans with similar cancer.

Acts of Kindness: My Name Is
This RAOK will take you approximately 14 seconds to do, costs nothing, and means the world to those who receive it. Sound to good to be true? Read on...
Learn people's names. I've watched my husband do this countless times and never really thought about the impact it makes, but on several occasions, I have noted that it is like flipping a switch or opening a door and the entire situation changes. Stop and listen when your server introduces him or herself, then the next time s/he returns to the table address them properly and have a small conversation. Do you know the mail carrier's name? What about the grocery check out clerk you see every week? Even if they are wearing a name tag, committing that name to memory, and using it, will bring a smile and make that person feel important.
Every time my toddler points to a face in a photo I tell him that person's name. I love that he now knows Jodi at Whole Foods and Angela driving the mail truck. Sometimes it takes me out of my comfort zone to stop and talk, so I'm challenging myself to learn even more names: the garbage truck drivers, all the people and kids on our block (hey we just moved, and its a big block!), the receptionist at the dentist.
Your name is quite literally who you are and who doesn't want to have that acknowledged?

Foreign diplomats tour region
The Dubbo and Parkes region will play host to 15 diplomats during the next two days in a bid to increase overseas investment.
The officials are representing nations including Germany, India, New Zealand and China and will tour the NorthParkes mine, the CSIRO radio telescope and the Taronga Western Plains zoo during their visit.
Dubbo MP Troy Grant says it is an exciting opportunity to attract international investors to the region.
He says NSW Trade and Investment, Inland NSW Tourism and Regional Development Australia will be among the agencies helping to show the tour group around.
"They're here to have a look at opportunities that exist for investment, for their countries into our region," he said.
"Opportunities for partnerships with local businesses and understanding what this region has to offer by way of potential imports and ongoing business relationships."
He says there are a number of diverse industries worth highlighting such as the conditions and opportunities available for gliding at Narromine.
Mr Grant says other countries could outsource pilot training to Narromine.
He says the central west has a lot more to offer than just primary industries opportunities.
"What I want to do is debunk the myths and part of my job is to showcase my electorate and I get to do that in the state and in the national sphere at times, but this is an opportunity to do that on an international stage.
"This is a small investment in what could be a wonderful outcome for this region economically."

Casey: IT'll be whether we go into Iran!
MFK: says surge works. makes no reference to the fact that there wasn't anyone left to kill
MFK: just say unabated killing

Casey: BEFORE ahmadinejad.
Casey: It's the mullahs.
ken: good call casey
ken: at least, you know obama's argument well
MFK: obama – we need to work w/ russia and china to work w/ iran
Casey: Wrong war. Bush is a retard.
MFK: isolation has led to nukes
Casey: Bottom line: we have no military with which to fight Iran.
MFK: mccain mocking 'preconditions' line
Casey: As Rumsfed said, there are no good targets in Iran.
MFK: how can iran be a huge threat yet not be legitimate?
ken: we could arm israel and let them take care of iran's nuclear ambition
Casey: Iran is a serious threat to Iranians. Let's keep some perspective.
MFK: this makes no sense
BrookeBook: Haven't we already armed Israel?
ken: i mean more
BrookeBook: Agreed to Iran=threat to iranians.

Casey: od, Ken, think this shit through a little bit.
Casey: What happens when we no longer need mideast oil?
ken: in ten years?
ken: hmm
Casey: what reasons, besides protection of a sovereign democracy, do we have to support Israel?

ken: how many more reasons do we need?
Casey: YES. SPAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BrookeBook: Score! Spain flub.

MFK: does it look like mccain's lipstick is smeared/
James: Screw the Latvians, I say.

Casey: Like how to rear children, not heads.
Casey: I SEE YOUR SOUL!
MFK: georgia started it! wtf?

MFK: we have BLOWN our military on bush's adventure
MFK: how do we afford the war against russia?
MFK: we gonna borrow it from china?
BrookeBook: They're cutting us off….
MFK: obama – we can't drill our way out of this

Casey: I like Johhny Rockets.
Casey: u got thems in NYC?
MFK: are they waffle fries? those are the best
ken: did this debate just get very boring
MFK: that commission was bullshit!
MFK: wtf
James: No, they were the skinny fries, not waffle. I love waffle, no doubt. But these were nicely fried skinny fries.
ken: mccain says we need better intelligence
ken: i agree with this
MFK: AHHH … why did you vote to allow torture, you fuck?
MFK: re-org of gov't yes. but it's fucking huge
MFK: air port security is nothing but theater
MFK: 2 things: lock the doors, tell passengers to fight back = no more 9/11 ever
MFK: i swear if mccain says obama doesn't understand one more time….
MFK: he fucking understands
Casey: It's great theater, though. I like it when fat people try yo take of their shoes.
Casey: Obama should start saying that.
Casey: "better intelligence." Anyone can SAY that, Ken. What's JohnBoy gonna DO about it? Bush SAID it. What did he DO about it.
Casey: You can't make up for 35 years of lost Humint.
MFK: "we are weak because of iraq'
Casey: barry – "economy is national security issue." score.
BrookeBook: McC has voted against better vet care
ken: are you looking up voting records durning the debate brooke?
Casey: Lies aside, this debate is neck and neck.
Casey: "There are advantages to experience" says THE GUY WHO FUCKING PICKED PALIN.
BrookeBook: No, but this is one I know from prior research and vet reps.
ken: lol
Casey: Yeah, ken. The vet thing is umm, vetted.
MFK: "i will keep you safe"
Casey: Mccain, you don't need on the job training. You need round the clock nursing.
James: I was waiting for
veterans care to come up. What about the homeless Iraq war vet I gave a
dollar to today outside of Grand Central. They should both be asked
that. And for the record, the waffle fry and the "string" or "skinny"
fry are now equal in my mind, provided they are fried properly.
MFK: not the steak fry?>
Casey: I fry with nuclear.
MFK: and that's all she wrote
MFK: so what do you think?
BrookeBook: Meet next week for VP debate? Should be a helluva a lot more fun.
MFK: hard to say who won because i was half focused on this chat thing
ken: more fun yes
BrookeBook: It seemed even.
ken: i think we should have a chat independent of televised debate
MFK: lots of distortion from mccain
BrookeBook: McC scored with the many naive points.
MFK: barry didn't get to address all of it
MFK: VP debate will be embarassing
MFK: anyone see the couric interviews?
ken: i, for one, feel sorry for Palin
BrookeBook: Obama proved a solid debater, came across as serious, thoughtful, responsible.
MFK: me too.
I think you all have run out of room, no new posts since the 2ns Miss Congeniality.
Yeah, the service I used sucks, and it didn't archive the stuff properly. Will find another way to do it next time.
Okay, Swami "the Master" Interlandi will be in attendance for the VP round. I'll be representing the Elite Order of the Porcelain Shimmer. I promise to bring an extreme Christian bias and a half-bottle of bourbon. By the way, who's this Libertarian? Is it who I think it is? Get real, junior.
Remember two fourths of July ago? We were such mavericks then. Now we're just a bunch of Bollocked Bullocks. Fire the corrupt!!!!
Good stuff folks – great debate all around; was so pissed at McC for all the dismissals and unwillingness to even look Obama in the eyes.
Say it one more time McC… Amadig-didgeridoo? Hellman's dijonnaise? no that's not it… i think he pooped a little when he got it right.

Court Rules Against Detainees at Bagram
A federal appeals court ruled that detainees imprisoned at the Bagram U.S. military base in Afghanistan can't use U.S. courts to challenge their detention, likely setting up a new Supreme Court fight over antiterrorism policy.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia said three Bagram detainees who sought to challenge their detentions didn't have the same rights as prisoners held at the U.S. base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Two of the three men were captured and held elsewhere before being moved to Afghanistan, and the third, according to the U.S., was captured in Afghanistan.A 2008 Supreme Court ruling granted Guantanamo prisoners access to U.S. courts, and several won rulings for their release.
The appeals-court ruling applies to the small group of non-Afghan prisoners who are among the more than 600 detainees held at Bagram. An earlier lower court opinion rejected U.S. court access for Afghan detainees at Bagram, but said non-Afghan detainees could challenge their detention in U.S. courts.
The Obama administration successfully argued to the appeals court that unlike detainees at Guantanamo, the Bagram prisoners are under U.S. control only temporarily until the Afghan government takes over.
The appeals court ruling said the U.S. holds the detainees in Afghan territory under an agreement with Afghanistan.
Civil-liberties groups that have filed lawsuits on behalf of Bagram detainees said they would continue to fight the administration in court.
"Today's decision ratifies the dangerous principle that the U.S. government has unchecked power to capture people anywhere in the world, unilaterally declare them enemy combatants and subject them to indefinite military detention with no judicial review and little to no process for challenging their detention in any forum," said Melissa Goodman, a staff attorney with the ACLU National Security Project, which represents prisoners not included in the ruling Friday.
The ruling for now lifts a cloud hovering over the detention facility at Bagram. President Barack Obama has ordered the closing of Guantanamo, but has run into congressional resistance to set up a new prison for terror detainees in Thomson, Ill.
Some critics of the Guantanamo closure plans had argued that with doubts about the status of the Bagram prisoners, the U.S. lacked a place to take any new major terror detainees. Administration officials have said that the U.S. has agreements with several countries that would allow U.S. interrogators to interview suspects being held in those countries.

***update posted at the end of the thread***
Hi all,
I'm new here, but my hubby, fysh' is not. I've contemplated joining the forum for a while and when John showed me the article on Casting for Recovery, I knew I wanted to be a big part of helping out. I contacted Frank and he has obtained permission for me to post here and invite all of you to join in helping this wonderful cause. Article: http://www.theflyfishingforum.com/fo...headlines.html
My sweet grandmother was taken from me way too early. She was my hero and a victim of breast cancer. I love the concept of Casting for Recovery, allowing these women an opportunity to escape from the horrors of this disease and give them a day of distraction and nature therapy.
I have a Scentsy business. Scentsy is not just a product that I am in love with; it has provided me with an opportunity to donate funds to many different causes, but because of my passion for fly fishing, this one is very exciting for me.
What is Scentsy? Scentsy is a safe, wickless alternative to burning candles to fragrance your home. A Simple System Scentsy Warmers use a low-watt bulb to melt specially formulated wax slowly, maximizing the fragrance time of the Scentsy Bar or Scentsy Brick. With no flame, soot, smoke, or lead, the Scentsy system is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 delightful Scentsy fragrances.
I am providing you with a link to my site and I am pledging 100% of my proceeds (my commission) from sales to NAFFF members to Casting for Recovery. I will not profit from these sales AND I am also pledging to match the proceeds raised by the NAFFF members with a personal donation. (Up to $500) This fund raising event is open now and will run through December 25th.
Scentsy makes a great gift; its a product that is excellent quality, safe, fun and easy to use. Adults love the Warmers, Room Sprays, Travel Tins and there are Scentsy Buddies for the little ones. Orders placed before December 18th will be delivered before Christmas! (December 15th for Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam and Canada.)
You can find my site at: Pam's Scentsy Site - Helping Casting for Recovery. Please place your order by clicking the open party titled NAFFF Casting for Recovery. Ordering is done though a secure server and the order will be delivered directly to you from Scentsy.
I look forward to working with you to help this great cause. Please contact me if you have any questions.
Supported by NAFFF and Fish&Fly

Book Review: The Hound of the Baskervilles
From staff and wire reports - Aug 02, 2012
The Hound of the Baskervilles, written by Arthur Conan Doyle, is a classic mystery crime novel set in England. It was published between August 1901 and April 1902 as a serial story in The Strand Magazine.
The novel begins with Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson bickering as to the identity of the owner of a mysterious cane left in their office. This scene provides insight into the constant back-and-forth that is their friendship. Sherlock is correct in deducing the owner of the cane, who shortly thereafter appears with news of the enigmatic death of Sir Charles Baskerville, which involves a family curse of a murderous spectral hell hound.
Personally, I found The Hound of the Baskervilles to be quite entertaining. I would highly recommend it to those who enjoy mystery novels. A reader would need to take into account that the book was written over one-hundred years ago and the language is wordy with high-level vocabulary. Therefore, I would only suggest the novel to mature readers.

Maple Farm Sanctuary is an animal sanctuary providing lifelong homes for abused, abandoned and unwanted farmed animals while promoting veganism and respect for all life through public information. Maple Farm Sanctuary has taken in a fraction of the billions of farmed animals that are bought, sold, tormented and slaughtered by the meat, dairy and fur industries.
At Maple Farm Sanctuary, we strive to treat both humans and non-humans as individuals who are worthy of compassion and respect, where we pursue a vegan diet and a non-violent lifestyle and where our stewardship of these 120 acres of beautiful Massachusetts farmland and wildlife habitat is a sacred trust.
We have been in the process of converting what was once a multi-generational family farm into a refuge for many rescued animals who were neglected, abused or headed to slaughter. In taking on this challenging yet joyful work, we are both inspired and humbled. We ourselves once raised and sent to slaughter animals as a means of making a living. As a result of a profound change of consciousness, we now choose to see the world and animals in a very different light. We have dedicated our lives to completing our transformation from animal farmers to animal rescuers and caretakers, and to sharing what we have discovered along the way with as many people as possible.
At Maple Farm Sanctuary we have made a special commitment to serve animals whose lot in life is especially difficult, those with a need for extraordinary consideration and commitment. Our goal is to create an evermore safe, loving and healthy environment for these special beings, and for all the residents of Maple Farm Sanctuary. We do all we can to achieve this goal, and little by little, with lots of help, we are making progress.
Maple Farm Sanctuary is very much a work in progress. We welcome your suggestions, your encouragement, your help as a volunteer and your donations as we move forward in this adventure of building a non-profit organization and a community based on peace, compassion and hope.

Orchestrating success
Sunday, December 18, 2005
By ANGELA ALLEN, Columbian staff writer
In Columbia Arts Center's basement on a stormy Thursday night, three young musicians settle sheet music on their stands.
"Let's play a little Beethoven," said Victoria Racz, an oboist who directs the Junior Symphony of Vancouver with her husband, Timoteus. With her red hair arranged as precisely as measures of Ludwig van Beethoven's piece, she prepares her wind players for the Dec. 3 "Winter Concert."
The musicians flutist Erin Lowry, 16, clarinetist Christopher Smith, 14, and Quinn Middleman, a 14-year-old oboist draw deep breaths, start in, and for 10 minutes, play the Allegro movement from Trio Op. 87, glancing up enough to watch Victoria's subtle count-keeping and to track one another's phrasing. They don't hit every note perfectly, but they play with an understanding of the piece, its pauses, its dynamics, its changes from fortissimo and pianissimo.
As young as they are, they are dedicated musicians. And they are from Clark County Ridgefield, Camas, Battle Ground, Vancouver, Brush Prairie. It wasn't until 1999, when the Junior Symphony of Vancouver formed, that young classical musicians found kindred spirits during weekly practices at St. Luke's Episcopal Church.
That year, when the Raczes moved from West Linn, Ore., to Vancouver, classical music jumped upscale for Clark County youth. For most students, the orchestra represented major steps up from their high school bands and steps out of their small worlds of private lessons.
"The kids, they were begging me," said Timoteus, who owns Racz European Violins in downtown Vancouver and teaches private violin lessons. "'Why don't you do an orchestra, Mr. Racz?'"
Parents and youth, many of them his and Victoria's private-lesson students, encouraged him. We want something to represent this town, to show off our talents and our kids, they said. We don't want to live in the shadow of Portland, he heard. After all, he and Victoria had put together the Oregon Chamber Players when they were living in Oregon in the mid-1990s.
Why not step up for the kids? said Victoria Racz.
"The arts reflect a community. For a city trying to find its identity, it's important to have a group like this for the future of the community."
First there was Portland
Before the Raczes started the Junior Symphony of Vancouver six years ago, the only nearby classical music groups for kids outside of school bands were in Portland. The differences in leadership and mission shape the Vancouver and Portland ensembles, making each group distinct, and to an extent, a reflection of its community. Portland is bigger, more diverse and has more talent to choose from than Clark County, though certainly as the Southwest Washington area grows, its communities are demanding more resources for children.
The Portland Youth Philharmonic was established in 1924 as the nation's first youth symphony. It requires rigorous auditions and re-auditions. With four ensembles, including two symphony orchestras, its mission is "to maintain the finest youth symphony," said executive director Diane Syrcle. Twenty-seven Clark County kids are among its 270 musicians.
The 32-year-old Metropolitan Youth Symphony, 500 strong, includes about 100 Vancouver-area kids who give up their Saturday mornings to play in one or more of its 12 ensembles at Northeast Portland's Beaumont Middle School. Records show that the symphony has trained 2,600 musicians, continues to grow, and has such well-known graduates as Pink Martini's Thomas Lauderdale and Portland-area trumpeter Derrick Simms. Democratic in its nature, the group, manager Carol Neff said, is wide open to "anyone who can read music and wants to play music. We'll find them a scholarship, we'll practice with them, we'll find them an instrument."
Known as MYS, the youth symphony was founded by 74-year-old Lajos Balogh, a Hungarian, like Timoteus Racz. The two met while teaching at Marylhurst University in Lake Oswego, Ore. Both play violin, and each argues that musical discipline is a shorthand to global communication, and if taught right, smooths the rocky pathway to adulthood.
Balogh, who occasionally takes on the role of Albert Einstein in local productions due to his windblown white hair, can-do spirit, and thick Eastern European accent, plays co-ed soccer. Timoteus Racz, though a fan, doesn't play; he wants to avoid injuring is hands. Otherwise, as Timoteus Racz wryly said, "We don't see much of each other. We don't live in the same neighborhood."
Despite the similarities between Timoteus Racz and Balogh, their youth groups are quite different.
The Junior Symphony of Vancouver is much smaller usually from 15 to 25 kids a term than either of the Portland classical organizations. It plays chamber music, and strings and winds make up the musical mix.
There are differences of scale, as well, just as the groups are in the two very different communities.
The Portland groups wear tuxedos and formal dress for concerts in such acoustically acute venues as the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall and Skyview High School Auditorium in Salmon Creek, rather than performing, as the Vancouver group does, in the slightly shabby downtown Vancouver Columbia Arts Center, where acoustics are mediocre at best and seating is about 300.
Other than that, things even out, and it would be a stretch to label any of the groups elitist. Vancouver's group costs a bit less to join if you are a returning player about $225 a year than either Portland group. Scholarships are available, and the missions are similar: to give young musicians a chance to play up to professional standards, and in the process, grow as people.
"We try to take everyone," said Victoria Racz, who runs the group, coaches the wind players but leaves conducting to her husband.
Auditions for the Junior Symphony of Vancouver are once each three-month term, and most often, if a young musician doesn't make the cut, he or she is encouraged to come back and re-audition.
"We don't accept everyone," Victoria said, "but the kids know that we're reserving them for a later time. This is a really small group. If your rhythm is challenged, you'll throw off your teammates. If you're not counting well this time, we want to give you another shot another time."
If a violist or flutist doesn't make it, the Raczes return the $25 audition fee, unlike the Portland orchestras.
Victoria calls her musicians "98 percent exceptional young men and women. They are top of the class, motivated, respectful."
Most have been playing their instruments for at least five years and take weekly lessons. Some compose, like Quinn Middleman, who wrote "Greek Mythology Suite" and premiered her piece at the 2005 June fundraiser concert. For her efforts, her tuition is free this year, thanks to donor Martha McCourt. When Quinn graduates from high school she wants to study at a conservatory and work as a professional musician.
For Quinn, 14, whom Victoria Racz says has "the maturity of a 40-year-old," the junior symphony is a giant leap up from high school music. Though she plays in Mountain View High School's band, Quinn says, "I can hardly hear myself in band. Here, if I'm absent, it matters."
Character through music
Upstairs on the arts center stage, nine of the winds' colleagues, from ages 11 to 16, bow away at violins, violas and cellos, tuning up on Mozart, Bach, Handel. Timoteus Racz is conducting, dapper in a European-cut suit and short, trimmed beard. The kids call him "Mr. Racz," though they call Victoria Racz, "Victoria."
Timoteus expects to be addressed as Mr. Racz.
"We didn't grow up together. I like this class division. I like discipline."
When he gives violin lessons he offers a comfortable chair to a waiting parent. For his students? They sit in straight-backed wooden chairs. He likes to conduct with a baton as much as he likes wearing cuff links and a well-tailored overcoat. For the winter concert he wore a black suit, thin red tie and matching crimson handkerchief in his coat pocket.
During the season, he expects regular attendance, no tardiness and proper dress (black T-shirt, black socks and black pants). Musicians sign a contract and are required to attend the nine or 10 rehearsals a term and the final dress rehearsal and concert. "If you're doing five Nutcrackers or have marching band concerts, you probably shouldn't join up for that term," said Victoria Racz.
Being a musician is a highway to adulthood, music educators agree. Practicing and performing music promotes intelligence and aesthetic appreciation, leadership, communication, self-confidence.
"Musicians have to have discipline," said Metropolitan Youth Symphony manager Neff. "They have to practice and be organized. The majority go on to college. They don't waste time. They give up their Saturdays to play."
Tolerance and persistence are other qualities that music leaders say young musicians hone as they play and practice as part of a larger group.
"A piece of music can look too hard," Neff said, "then they learn it. They always come through. They've accomplished it. It gives them confidence in everything they try. Too hard? They don't even know those words."
Making it work
Portland Youth Philharmonic executive director Syrcle is pleased to see the Junior Symphony of Vancouver alive, if only by a nonprofit shoestring, small grants, donations like Martha McCourt's tuition scholarship, and a once-a-year fundraiser. This year the Limoges Investment Co., Northwest Cancer Specialists and Wells Fargo Bank donated money for the concert venue.
But, as with most fledgling arts groups, survival has been iffy at times, and growing pains have been acute. Not only were the Raczes absorbing the expense and hassle of moving from West Linn to Vancouver in 1999 when they started the youth group, they persuaded their young musicians to perform pro bono concerts. They set up a booth at such events as Taste of Vancouver for recognition, and recruited mentors from the Oregon Chamber Players to help the kids, free of charge.
The non-stop Raczes do all this amid other obligations.
Victoria and Timoteus founded the 11-year-old Oregon Chamber Players, in which they both play. Both play in the chamber players' quartet, and Victoria is part of the Con Grazia Quintet. She heads up the Northwest Oboe Seminar. The Raczes hire themselves out for weddings, they teach lessons, they sell and repair violins.
"There's nothing like a musician to know how to stretch a nickel," Victoria said. "If Donald Trump needs an apprentice, I can tell him how to run things."
But in 2004, after five years of struggling, the Raczes issued a make-it-or-break-it proposition and invited people to a potentially final-curtain June concert. They raised the ticket prices from the usual $10 to $20 and added a silent auction, which has since become a primary fundraiser.
"I stamped my foot and said 'save our season,'" Victoria said. "I made the point to drive home the need for donations. 'Don't take us for granted. Pay attention to us! We're the new kids on the block,'" she recalled thinking a year and a half ago.
It worked. The audience filled the hall. And this year's December concert wasn't sold out, but it was well attended.
Victoria added, "I will never surrender."
And so far she hasn't.
"We're always happy to have more music in the area," said Syrcle, a former Portland Opera outreach educator. "True, there are things not happening in the schools, but also there are great things happening in the schools, and lots of great music education is happening in Clark County. It supports what the youth orchestras are doing."
Victoria Racz said the persistence to make rehearsals happen from 7-9 p.m. every Thursday night and robbing Peter (herself) to pay Paul (concert expenses) make ends meet for a new arts group.
"Week after week, you look at these young musicians having a blast, living music. Sometimes we have to stamp our feet and beg for money, but the show always goes on. There's no way I will see crestfallen faces on these kids."
Your brain on music
Ongoing research shows that classical music is good for the brain.
The cerebellum is larger in classically trained male musicians than in men who don't play a musical instrument, Dr. Gottfried Schlaug of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston reported at the Society of Neuroscience convention in 1998. The cerebellum is a region of the brain responsible for posture, balance, coordination and fine motor movements.
Research pursued at the University of California, Irvine, led by psychologist Frances Rauscher, Ph.D, and neuroscientist Gordon Shaw, Ph.D., shows that there is "an unmistakable causal link between music and spatial intelligence, reversing the once commonly held view that music education is irrelevant to intellectual development."
In this study in the mid-1990s, researchers concluded that spatial-reasoning abilities are crucial for such higher brain function such as music, complex mathematics and chess. Results showed that the spatial-reasoning performance of 18 preschool children who took eight months of music lessons far exceeded the spatial reasoning of a demographically comparable group of 15 preschool children who went without music lessons.
A similar study in the late '90s by Shaw and Rauscher showed that children who received piano training performed 34 percent higher on tests measuring spatial temporal ability than children instructed in computers.
"It has been clearly documented that young students have difficulty understanding the concepts of proportion (used in math and science) and that no successful program has been developed to teach these concepts in the school system. The high proportion of children who saw dramatic improvements in spatial-temporal reasoning as a result of musical training should be of great interest to scientists and educators," the research team noted.
Students who study music scored higher on both the verbal and math portions of the SAT than did non-music students, according to the College Entrance Examination Boards, as reported in Symphony, 1996.

When her thirty-year marriage broke up, Sue Hubbell found herself alone and broke on a small Ozarks farm. Keeping bees, she found solace in the natural world. She began to write, challenging herself to tell the absolute truth about her life and the things that she cared about. The result is one of the best-loved books ever written about life on the land, about a woman finding her way in middle age.
An invasion of spring peepers, a young indigo bunting at song practice, a parade of caterpillarsthese are integral parts of Hubbell's environment. She lives alone on a 100-acre farm in the Ozarks, where she tends 200 beehives and produces honey on a commercial scale. In a series of exquisite vignettes she takes us into her world, and a life attuned to nature. Hubbell's busiest season is late summer, when she harvests the honey. Then she needs help for the backbreaking labor (``a strong young man who is not afraid of being stung''). She tells how she desensitizes her helper to bee stings; there is a vivid description of a day in the beeyard at harvest time. We meet her dogs and cats, her neighbors; travel with her when she sells the honey; share the pleasures of observing wildlife. Some of these delightful pieces have appeared in the ``Hers'' column of the New York Times and in Country Journal. Illustrations. First serial to Harper's. (April 10)

When you fall in love with someone, you can't really predict the direction of the relationship. The relationship could be perfect. Or at times, it could be the worst thing you would have to endure. But the hope of perfect romance always makes us take a chance.
23 types of relationships to define your love life below
#1 The codependent relationship.
Do you need your partner to function efficiently in your life? This is the kind of relationship where you're too dependent on your partner, and completely rely on them to help you with your decision making.
#2 The controlling relationship.
One partner plays a dominant role in the romance, while the other partner just follows the rules. You may not realize you're being dominated for a very long time, until you start getting frustrated and feeling helpless.
#3 The held-by-loss relationship.
Both of you have lost a lover or have experienced a painful breakup recently, and have come together because both of you just needed somebody to love and get loved in return. The is very common, and almost always a rebound relationship with someone just to fill the emptiness inside.
An open relationship is a relationship where both partners are emotionally committed to each other. But sexually, well, not so much. Both partners made love with other people outside the relationship with each other's consent.
#5 The negotiation relationship.
Both of you are happy with each other, but every now and then, there are a lot of negotiations and compromises from both sides just to keep the other partner happy.
#6 Toxic relationships.
Toxic relationships are relationships that seem pleasant from the outside, but for some unexplainable reason, they suck the life and happiness out of you. You're frustrated or annoyed most of the time, and you have no idea why.
#7 The pastime fling.
You're in love with your partner, but you're not so in love that you make future plans with each other. You're happy for now, but somewhere inside, you're convinced that the relationship won't work out or last forever.
#8 The asexual relationship.
Both of you are sexually attractive and even get attracted to the opposite sex. But both of you aren't interested in having sex with each other. The routine of lovemaking may have bored you and you may not care for it anymore.
#9 The trophy relationship.
You're dating your partner because it makes you look better or gives you something materialistic in return. Gold diggers and men with trophy wives are the best fit for this type of relationship. The love in this relationship may be true, but the foundation of the relationship is built on shallow material ground instead of romantic compatibility.
#10 The sexual affair.
You're in the relationship only for the sex. There's no emotional connection and you just don't care about building the love. You're sexually infatuated by your partner, and you don't care how they treat you as long as you get physical intimacy.
#11 The distracted relationship.
Many college sweethearts experience this type of relationship several years down the road. Both partners are in love, but completely invisible to each other. They're too focused on their careers or the kids to give enough time to each other.
#12 The imperfect relationship.
You know your relationship isn't perfect, but you don't really want to change it. You don't complain, because you've accepted your partner and your life to be less than perfect. And you feel you can't change anything even if you want to.
#13 The unhappy relationship.
You're not happy in your relationship, but you're still staying back, not for love, but for something else, like your kids or what society will think of you.
#14 The long distance relationship.
Both of you love each other and are connected to each other emotionally. But physically, both of you live in two different area codes and share minimal physical intimacy. You'd have to deal with insecurities and jealously, and several bouts of suspicion now and then.
#15 The complicated relationship.
Complicated relationships are the trickiest kind of relationships. Both partners may know that things aren't perfect in loveland, either because of the involvement of a third person, or because of the incompatibility, but yet both of you have no idea how to fix the issue or deal with it.
#16 The emotional relationship.
This is the kind of secret affair you have with someone other than your own partner. You may not realize you're falling for this person, but you'd be completely addicted to them in reality. So much so, that you'd willingly jeopardize your own perfect relationship to be with this other person.
#17 Friends with benefits.
The friends with benefits relationship is a completely no strings attached agreement between two people, where there's sexual intimacy and nothing more. But almost every single time, one or both partners end up falling in love. The fact that both of you only hooked up for casual sex in the first place makes it very easy for both of you to feel insecure in this relationship.
#18 The love-hate relationship.
There's loads of chemistry and sexual attraction in this relationship. But as much as there is love and passion, there's the same amount of hate and frustration. Both of you are crazy about each other, and yet, can't stand each other at times. This can be fun for a while, but unless both of you fix the issue, it'll start to get very tiresome in the long run.
#19 The insecure relationship.
Both of you may lead your own independent lives and have your own friends. And as much as you try to convince your partner that you're loyal, your partner may always assume you're cheating or are interested in someone else. You can help your partner to a certain extent, but beyond a point, you can't do much but let go.
#20 The abusive relationship.
This is the kind of relationship where one partner holds the reins and controls the other partner, either verbally or physically. If a partner ever tries to control you or uses their hand on you, walk away at the very first instance. As hard as it may seem, you have no choice here. You could try to convince yourself that it was a one-off incident, but it almost never is.
#21 May December relationships.
Are you in a relationship with someone who's at least a decade and a half older or younger than you? Then you'd qualify for the May December romance. Compatibility matters here, but beyond that, you still need to learn to deal with different expectations from each other, family, and the views of your friends.
#22 The sacrificial relationship.
This is unconditional love in its worst form. You're dating someone you truly love with all your heart, but your partner doesn't seem to love you with the same intensity as you love them. And even if both of you are really nice people who are perfect for each other, this kind of relationship will only lead to bitter fights and helpless tears.
#23 The truly compatible romance.
This is the hardest type of relationship to find. But then again, this is the only definition of a perfectly romantic relationship. Both of you are compatible and completely understand each other, and accept each other for who both of you are. There's love in the air, and everyone else is envious of your relationship.
