Welcome to my website, and thanks so much for reading! I sincerely hope my website will help you choose the music school best for you, succeed as a music student and beyond. Follow me on Twitter @musicschoolcent
Attending college for music is, undoubtedly, one of the most powerful and influential investments of a young musician's career.
And why wouldn't it be? In a great music school, a student is provided opportunities to work with accomplished college faculty, perform under the direction of esteemed conductors and music directors at the forefront of academia, and network with student and professional musicians alike.
That all said, I consistently see location of the school being majorly overlooked by my college consulting students looking into college for music.
Most of the time, students either say "Oh, location doesn't matter to me" or "I only want to go to school in Los Angeles."
Quite the extremes we see.
The truth is, many of the best music scenes in America actually exist in college towns. Prominent music festivals, symphonic orchestras, jazz bands, independent music labels, rock and roll scenes, and of course excellent college music programs reside in many of the nation's finest college towns.
Having these be an integral experience of an education can be important to the life experience of many musicians.
And why is that?
Because a student's four years in an undergraduate program provides an unparalleled opportunity to network with musicians and audiences, which can open the door for career opportunities down the road.
For this list, I looked only at college towns that have prominent music schools.
I also excluded major cities that are too large to be college towns. While New York and Austin have incredible music scenes, they are too large to be considered true college towns.
I also looked at the activity and the life of students in these cities. What is life like in and out of the main music campus; how are the sports, extracurricular activities, arts scenes outside of music (dance, theater, visual arts), etc.
Certainly, I considered musical factors aforementioned, such as the prominence of major festivals, venues and record labels, classical and jazz ensembles, etc.
Anything special about the town I also plan to note throughout this article. One of the college towns, for example, provides a full college scholarship to students who grew up in that town. Talk about an incredible promise!
Finally, I added in what is my several years of observation having traveled at one point or another to many of the world's finest music institutions.
So without further ado, here are the top 10 college towns for music majors in the US.
Ithaca has a surprising diversity in its eclectic music scene – it is home to a healthy variety of musical traditions ranging from folk, classical, and jazz styles.
Ithaca hosts the city-beloved Cayuga Chamber Orchestra, a professional ensemble that has, since its inception in the mid-1970s, performed 100s of concerts to the upstate New York community at large.
The music festival community in Ithaca is exceptionally vibrant. The Finger Lakes GrassRoots festival, which is held every year just outside Ithaca, draws tens of thousands of concertgoers seeing artists as notable as Los Lobos & Ani DiFranco.
Ithaca is home to one of the top liberal arts colleges housing a school of music in the country, the Ithaca College School of Music, making the institution ideal for music majors looking to gain a great education in music while maintaining a steady workload of academics.
One of the most noted majors at Ithaca College's School of Music is Music Education, which is the training of musicians to teach in the K-12 public school systems. Alumni from Ithaca College's School of Music can be found teaching in schools, directing youth ensembles, and participating within the diverse array of musical and cultural festivity Ithaca has to offer.

Home to the Western Michigan University School of Music, Kalamazoo is a college town filled with artistic intrigue, a hip music scene, and one of the finest jazz programs in the country.
Let's talk about that jazz program. Western Michigan University's jazz program is among the most distinguished in the country, having garnered over 100 Downbeat Magazine awards since the early 80s.
Students in the jazz program have the opportunity to meet the world's most notable jazz musicians; Esperanza Spalding and Wynton Marsalis are just a few of the noted people.
Outside of the jazz program, the school is noted for many of its classical music departments; many of the finest classical performers and composers in the state of Michigan and beyond flock to Western Michigan University's increasingly competitive program.
For musical activities outside of the university, Kalamazoo is second-to-none for many of its historic festivals.
One of these festivals is the Irving S. Gilmore International Keyboard Festival. Among the finest of sophisticated music festivals in the US, the Gilmore Keyboard Festival featured, in 2016 alone, artists as fine and diverse as Yefim Bronfman, classical pianist, and Tony Bennett, one of the world's most beloved jazz vocalists.
Additionally, Kalamazoo is home to the Michigan Festival of Sacred Music as well as the very prominent Stulberg International Strings Competition.
Interesting fact: platinum-selling band The Verve Pipe started in Kalamazoo in the early 90s.
As a mainstay of disparate cultural events, Kalamazoo is unrivaled in terms of its cultural offerings for young artists.
For example, the city's Arts Council stages a monthly event known as "Art Hop." Art Hop is a unique collaboration among businesses, galleries, and artists looking to display creative works by local natives.
Musicians find themselves with a number of venues to perform in…
Among the most noted are the city's State Theatre, WMU's Miller Auditorium, The Union, a world-class jazz club that has an official partnership with the Western Michigan University School of Music, and the Wings Event Center, which is actually a 5,000+ multi-purpose venue with a hockey rink.
One notable fact about Kalamazoo is that is just about as far away from Chicago as it is from Detroit; about a 2.5 hour drive to each. This could be a benefit for students who are looking to occasionally participate in the musical life in either of these prominent American cities.
Finally, one of the most intriguing aspects of Kalamazoo is the town's "Kalamazoo Promise."
The promise is simple, yet powerful. It goes something like this…
For students who are residents of Kalamazoo, a full-tuition scholarship is paid for by the city of Kalamazoo should the student be accepted and attend any public college in the state of Michigan.
Seeing that Western Michigan University is a fine musical institution encapsulated within one of the most vibrant college towns, a student growing up here should seriously consider taking advantage of the town's unmatched resources for what would be an outstanding college music education.

Greeley, Colorado is a big one.
UNC's Lab I consistently wins the "best college jazz band" award from downbeat magazine, and the UNC/Greeley Jazz festival had over 5000 performers last year.
Thanks for your article – I am a grad of the NT School of Music from long, long ago – makes me proud to read your words.
My home town! Sweet as apple pie. Thanks for the yeeha Mr. Zuckerman. Of course I wanted my children to see the world, so twin A went Oberlin & Northwestern.. twin B went De Paul & Rice University … this city is amazing… & our girls visit the Hellhole They Grew Up In, quite often. Peace.
Nice write up. Just a note, though, on the Kalamazoo Promise. The way you wrote it makes it sound like the town must be extremely highly taxed, to be able to fund such a thing. This is not the case. While the city may administer it (I don't recall specifics), it is funded by a donor who chose to remain anonymous. There are many wealthy families in Kalamazoo due to the prominence of the pharmaceutical industry, and their donations help to provide such great opportunities to students of the arts.

The Kalamazoo Promise is a separate nonprofit that is funded by anonymous donors. We administer this scholarship for Kalamazoo public school graduates.
Great article and a great community.

Wonderful commentary on Denton! I am not a musician, but I went to college there in the 80s. FYI, it is not a "suburb." It's a county seat with a history and identity of its own.
Yes, Denton is a great city!
I am a visual artist in a family of professional musicians. I graduated from UNT with a BFA in Visual Art. When I was a student (and later taught there) it was the largest Art School in the country, with great professors who were highly successful in New York and worldwide.
How could you overlook Bloomington, IN? Top ranked music school, several music events every night, great night life, opera productions better than most professional opera companies, world famous performing groups, national music tours come through, major sports (basketball, football, etc.), enormous marching band, beautiful campus, short drive to major cities, huge fraternity and sorority houses, brand new music school building, huge art community, world renowned professors, phenomenal dance and theater programs, big visual arts community, Straight No Chaser, etc.
I am proud, that I was studying there in 1999/2000. A. Pallesitz
University of North Texas's Jazz program rocks. And I would point out that the great write-up on the school makes a small error. As of 2016, the premier jazz ensemble at UNT, the One O'Clock Lab Band now has 7 Grammy nominations (not 6)!
Thanks for the helpful information.
While I heartily agree with the story on Denton (although it's much more than a suburb–and it's "north of ordinary")–you left out the fact that its close proximity to Dallas and Fort Worth provide opportunities for students to get gigs with performing arts organizations in addition to school-sponsored concerts and opera performances (people drive from Dallas and Fort Worth and beyond to see opera here). Additionally, many soloists and ensembles in the UNT College of Music enjoy hundreds of performing opportunities off-campus, as they are the go-to source for parties, fundraisers, weddings, receptions, churches and myriad other instances where people hire musicians. For example, need a Mariachi band? How about a steel drum ensemble for a tropical-themed event? String quartet for an art exhibit? Extra brass for Christmas Eve church services? Call the College of Music. Many faculty are also regular performers with the symphonic and opera companies in the Metroplex, enriching the experience for all. Full disclosure: I'm actually on the Journalism faculty at UNT but my husband and I are also musicians and we have many friends (faculty and students) in the College of Music.
Great article on a great school! Although I was not a music major, the music scene kept me there longer than I planned before graduating. On any given night in a number of small venues you can hear fantastic musicians playing all kinds of different music.

Republicans Urged To Back Relief Package
"It's not a perfect process," he told lawmakers, according to several Republican participants. "That's reality."
Republicans praised Obama's candor and willingness to reach across the aisle, but said he conceded little ground and probably won few, if any, converts. He staunchly defended one of their least favorite provisions, a $500-per-individual tax credit that can be claimed by people who make too little to pay income taxes but currently pay payroll taxes. Republicans oppose the so-called refundable credits, arguing that they are a form of welfare.
"Feel free to whack me over the head, because I probably will not compromise on that part," Obama said of the refundability portion, according to a GOP participant who took notes during the House meeting. "I will watch you on Fox News and feel bad about myself."
Later yesterday, the Senate Finance Committee added a $70 billion fix to the alternative minimum tax to its version of the bill, a provision aimed at preventing the tax from being applied to middle-class households. Republicans support the provision but want to cut other measures to make room for it. The addition of the AMT provision may increase Republican support in the Senate -- the committee passed its portion of the stimulus bill, 14 to 9 -- but may deepen resistance among more fiscally conservative House Republicans.
Obama arrived on the steps of the snow-covered Capitol just past noon for his meeting with House Republicans, a group toughened by two years of partisan warfare against an aggressive Democratic majority. It was his first-ever session with rank-and-file Republicans, and by all accounts, the meeting was collegial, if lacking in tangible results.
Republicans complained that Democrats had stuffed the legislation with extraneous items, such as $200 million for improvements to the Mall, prompting Obama to call the two-mile strip that a week earlier had hosted his inauguration "kind of important," according to a participant in the meeting. Nevertheless, Democrats deleted that provision last night.
GOP participants said Obama took questions from members across the ideological spectrum, including from 82-year-old Rep. Roscoe G. Bartlett (R-Md.), a 10-term conservative who reminded the president, "I was there" during the New Deal, while asserting that government intervention did not work then, either.
Obama urged Rep. Mike Pence (Ind.), one of several Republicans who said that GOP members had been shut out of the drafting process in the House, to consult with his chief economic adviser, Lawrence H. Summers, on ideas for reshaping the bill during the final negotiations.
Rep. Peter T. King (R-N.Y.) said Obama did not defend the stimulus as a model of sound policy, but rather described it as an urgent intervention that should be viewed outside of the traditional ideological framework. He said Obama told the group, "I'd rather be a one-term president who really makes an impact than a two-term president who is mediocre."
Obama drew his loudest applause from House Republicans when he noted he was running late for his Senate GOP meeting. "The Senate can wait," Obama quipped. As members cheered, he added, "I can pander with the best of you."
King said after the session, "It was one of those few moments down here where everybody did the right thing."
But when Obama departed, the first high-stakes vote of his presidency looked likely to break along the same party lines that he had pledged to break down as a candidate. Rep. Michael N. Castle (R-Del.) left the House meeting gratified by the White House outreach effort but concerned by school construction money included in the House bill. He said he viewed it as federal overreach into local education.
Despite his reservations, Castle said, "I'm gettable." But another GOP colleague, Rep. Fred Upton (Mich.), who was invited along with Castle to the White House last night, said the prospects for bipartisan support looked bleak, with the number of potential crossovers no higher than a dozen. "I'd say it's closer to zero than 12," Upton said.
Before 1:30 p.m., Obama and his aides crossed the Capitol, making a brief appearance in front of TV cameras before ducking into another hour-plus session with Senate Republicans. But even in the Senate, GOP moderates expressed surprising resistance to the package.
"My concern is the bill appears to be attracting worthwhile programs, but not necessarily programs that would have a beneficial impact on the economy," said Sen. Susan Collins (Maine), a moderate who has often voted with Democrats on fiscal issues.
Staff writer Michael D. Shear contributed to this report.

Joe Occhiogrosso -- Top Reasons to Attend PowerUP! 2016: Learn from a Pro!
As I'm sure you've caught onto by now, Viridian has been sharing its Top Ten Reasons to Attend PowerUP! 2016 in the ten weeks leading up to the big event.
I am honored to share with you my thoughts on the #5 Top Reason: Learn From a Pro.
I am honored because I'm not talking about just any pro; I am talking about THE network marketing pro—Mr. Eric Worre. Eric is someone I am honored to have learned from, I am honored to have stood alongside of and I am honored to call a friend.
Eric is in a class all his own when it comes to network marketing. He has cut his successful path from a full spectrum of industry experiences. He's gone from being a top income earner as a field representative, to founding his own $200 million dollar company, to building himself into the universal master of all things network marketing.
Eric is the founder of the most-watched training site in the industry, NetworkMarketingPro.com, attracting audiences from 137 countries around the globe. And if that wasn't enough, his annual Go Pro conference is already sold out for this year's event with over 20,000 attendees registered to see Eric, Tony Robbins and Sir Richard Branson on stage.
People pay big bucks to see Eric in person. Trust me, I've been one of those people! I even had the privilege of telling my story to a crowd of more than 8,000 people who paid those big bucks to see Eric at last year's Go Pro event.
You, Generation V, get to benefit from more than three hours of training and inspiration from Eric on the Saturday of PowerUP!—all included in the affordable cost of your ticket! I can't even express to you in words what a massive opportunity this presents to you and your teams.
My business partner, Ambassador Frank Marone, and I had the opportunity to sit down with Eric at his home in Las Vegas earlier this week and discuss just how important it is for every Associate to take the time, take the energy and invest the money to get themselves to Washington, DC at the end of September. We promise you it will be worth it! We even recorded a short video with Eric that highlights the three critical areas he plans on covering during his seminar. At PowerUP!, Eric will teach you:
- How to think like an entrepreneur. Until you think like one, you will continue to sabotage your success.
- The skills necessary to go out there and turn your dreams into reality.
- Effective strategies on how to use both your mindset and your skills in the best possible way to leverage every hour you put into this business.
As Eric mentions in this video, Viridian has recently experienced some exciting new developments and these moments of change are when you have the choice to either take advantage of the opportunities in front of you or you sit back and get run over. As he encourages all of us to do, now is the time to LEAN IN!
In fact, I challenge each of you to bring five new people to the Friday night of PowerUP!—five people that you meet between today and September 30.
Lean in by attending PowerUP! 2016. Lean in by encouraging your teams to attend. Lean in by bringing new prospects along with you. It will all result in success beyond what you thought possible
Come to PowerUP!, learn from a true pro and take control of your future.

Why heparin induce osteoprosis?

Responses (1)
Perhaps due to long-term heparin treatment causes osteoporosis through an as not well defined mechanism. In a work published in 1996 one can notice that biochemical markers of bone turnover showed that heparin treatment produced a dose-dependent decrease in serum alkaline phosphatase and a transient increase in urinary PYD thus confirming the decreasing in trabecular bone volume of histomorphometric data: heparin decreases the rate of bone formation and increases the rate of bone resorption, hope this is of help?
thanks alot

"The Box" is the name of one of the world's biggest and fastest 3D printers. It is made by BLB Industries in Värnamo, Sweden and can be seen at Elmia Automation.
From left, part-owners Jacob Lundin Cim Bergdahl and Tomas Burman of BLB Industries present "The Box" at Bosch Rexroth.
Tomas Burman, CEO and part-owner of BLB Industries, says "The Box" is about thinking differently.
"Our vision is that manufacturing industry will start to see the structural function aspect of 3D printers. That's by far the most important thing. They should be used to build functions, not appearances."
Instead of building small prototypes, "The Box" prints out a full-size prototype right from the start. And far faster than usual. A normal small-scale printer can build 50-60 mm per second whilst "The Box" can build 1,200 mm per second.
This means that even the small version can print up to 6 kg per hour with a printing volume of 2.5 cubic metres.
"Of course, the most obvious area of application is prototypes for all kinds of companies and the standard answer is Volvo and similar companies," Burman explains. "We also use granules not filament, which means that customers can handpick what kinds of properties they want in the material."

Mumbai, Mar 10 (ANI): Reliance Power Transmission Limited (RPTL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reliance Infrastructure, has signed power transmission agreements with eight entities from the western region for two state power transmission projects - B and C.
RPTL has signed the agreements through its two SPVs for the projects under the Western Region System Strengthening Scheme-II (WRSSS-II).
As directed by the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), the Power Grid Corporation of India had invited tariff-based competitive bids in 2005 for establishing 400 KV double circuit transmission lines around 1,500 kilometres under WRSSS-II in the western region, most importantly in Maharashtra and Gujarat.
The RPTL won the project as the lowest bidder and obtained transmission licence from the CERC.
The power transmission agreements have now been signed. "This is a major achievement that shall pave the way for attaining financial closure for these projects, costing Rs 1,800-crore," the press release said. (ANI)

Everett to Take Helm at Black Think Tank
At a time when African American Democratic lawmakers are poised to take significant leadership roles in Congress, Ralph B. Everett is leaving a major law firm to head the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies, the nation's premier black think tank.
Washington policymakers, lawmakers and candidates have come to rely on the Joint Center's research to take the pulse of black America and develop policies and programs to improve the lives of minorities.
"I just think this is a great time . . . a great opportunity to drive public policy to improve the lives of African Americans and other minorities," Everett said yesterday. "This is a time when more African Americans will wield power in Congress than ever before. We want to be part of that mix."
Everett succeeds Togo D. West Jr., secretary of Veterans Affairs during the Clinton administration, who resigned earlier this year after a short tenure. Interim Chief Executive Officer Margaret C. Simms will stay on at the think tank.
A trailblazer himself, Everett was staff director and chief counsel for the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee under then-Sen. Ernest F. Hollings (D-S.C.).
Since 1989, Everett has been a partner at Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker and has served as managing partner of the firm's D.C. office and co-chair of the federal legislative practice.
"This will be fun. We will do good," Everett said.
Paoletta to Join Dickstein Shapiro
Buzz is that there was a bidding war for Mark Paoletta, chief counsel for oversight and investigations at the House Energy and Commerce Committee, and Dickstein Shap iro won.
Paoletta will become a partner at the law firm after the first of the year and will specialize in guiding clients through congressional investigations. Also heading off for Dickstein: Andrew Snowdon, oversight and investigations counsel at the committee.
With four children to educate, Paoletta said he had planned to leave the Hill for the private sector after the midterm elections, "win or lose."
Paoletta said he has managed more than 200 congressional hearings. He said that he took particular satisfaction from the committee's investigations into Firestone tires, Enron, Hewlett-Packard's "corporate spying" and child pornography.
"Oversight is a great tool for Congress. You can look at things and change things without having to pass legislation," he said. "Whether it's a 50-vote margin or a 12-vote margin, it's always difficult to pass legislation."

Answers To Our Most Asked Questions
We've compiled a list of frequently asked questions for your convenience. If you have other questions, feel free to email our studio manager at firstname.lastname@example.com
No matter what film package you choose, each wedding is filmed with crew members utilizing the same techniques. We use either 2 or 3 camera operators depending on your package – One spends the morning filming the Bride's preparations while the 2nd and 3rd camera units cover the Groom getting ready and the ceremony set-up, respectively. All of us come together for the ceremony and spend the remainder of the day working as a well-oiled machine. More than 3 cameras may be employed depending upon the scope of the event and circumstances. Large weddings or complex timelines really benefit from added shooters to ensure the entire event is well covered.
Yes, we are proud to be the only studio offering both Wedding Films & Photography. Tailored Fit Films Clients can save up to 30% off of Wedding Photography bookings with our sister studio, Tailored Fit Photography.
Combined bookings have the added advantage of only having to coordinate with one studio, consistency in quality, and ensuring that your whole team is working together to capture your day perfectly.
Its really just the opposite! Having multiple camera operators allows us to place ourselves around strategically to capture things more naturally as they happen. We won't have to stand in front of the main action as a single camera operator would in order to get a clean view. We also make use of telephoto lenses to remove ourselves physically from the action and capture things intimately from afar. We will do whatever we can to not detract from any part of your wedding day.
Yes! Every package comes with your Full Ceremony and Speeches, which allows you to relive your ceremony homily, vows, and your reception toasts in their entirety, from multiple angles.
Packages come with an artistically composed Feature Film, and a full copy of your ceremony and speeches. Your Feature Film is the result of us taking the BEST parts of all your footage and condensing it into an emotional and entertaining family heirloom. If you wish to purchase your raw footage, it is available as an a la carte item for $500 delivered on an external hard drive.
Tailored Fit Films is available for a limited number of weddings per year. We try not to accept more than 25 annually. We may allow a few extras for exotic destination weddings abroad.
Coverage time is up to you! Our packages come with anywhere from 6 to 12 hours of continuous wedding coverage. Should your wedding go longer than your chosen package includes, you are free to add as much coverage time as you'd like at an additional fee of $150 per hour for the first hour, and $250 for every hour after that.
We think year long turnaround times are crazy, and push to have your film finished in 8-10 weeks. That said we run into a backlog during the summer, so your contract will state that it could take up to 3 months from your wedding in case circumstances prevent us from maintaining that expectation. We would much rather be upfront about this now than disappoint you later on.
You want your film to last – and you it in the best possible quality! With everything moving online and onto the cloud, DVD's are now going the route of VHS. In knowing this trend is coming, we now provide all our clients with custom designed USB Drives of their wedding ceremony and film.
This allows you to share your film with your family and friends, upload it online, and make as many copies as you desire. It also prevents the risk of losing your film in a house fire or misplaced moving box. The best part is that with more space available, the quality on your film on USB will be far higher than that of DVD.
Yes we offer Same Day Edits! Same Day Edits are a great way to have something instantly to show at your wedding while you wait for your Feature Film. Because they require a lot of preproduction work and extra gear, we have to charge extra for this service. Same Day Edits are available for an additional $800.
Because producing the film is our primary focus, we need you to arrange the visual screens and sound system for playback of your film. Many DJs and wedding reception venues now offer this amenity.
We're convinced that Legal Sounds Better. Music Licensing these days has gotten complicated, and well known songs can be extremely expensive to acquire rights for. In addition, some songs lend themselves better to a film setting than others – if you listen to the film score of your favourite move, chances are its much different than what you'd hear on the radio. We ask that you trust us to choose the music for your film. We will pick music that we feel best captures your individuality and the emotion behind your day.
Simply fill out the contact form in our menu, and provide us with as much information as you can. Someone will get back to you ASAP.
Tailored Fit Films works out of Kelowna, British Columbia, but if you're not in town, no worries! We are happy to have a consultation with you via Skype.
We LOVE destination weddings, and are happy to create custom packages to fit your wedding plans. Travel and accommodation fees are included in destination packages, so you won't have to worry about a thing!
Yes, we carry Liability Insurance. If insurance info is required, we can forward details to your venue.

It's almost here! Are you ready for Christmas?
We're almost ready at the Christensen house. Lots of presents to wrap, a few last minute gifts to make and buy, and I still haven't written my Christmas letter. But I am enjoying experiencing the excitement as my kids count down the days until the holiday. It makes the holiday so magical to have little kids around. Like the Kenny Rogers' song says, "Christmas is for kids."
We have a paper chain, and advent calendar, and an advent felt tree to help count down the days, so nobody is losing track of the days around here.
My sister and I made chocolates on Saturday and it was so fun. I missed our "annual" chocolate fest last year because I had a newborn and my sister was in Texas. My husband is so excited about the boxful of candy sitting in my garage--especially the caramel, chocolate-dipped pretzels!
Here's a list of the candy we made--and I have to note that this list is paltry compared to other years. Now that I have 4 kids and a new book coming out, plus two more in revisions, this is all we had time for...
Tempting Toffee Crisps
Butter Caramels Dipped in dark chocolate & salted
Dipped Peanut Butter Balls
Molasses Crinkle cookies dipped in white chocolate
Which recipe should I post on my blog?
What are you doing to celebrate the holidays?

For the younger generation, this year's money troubles are a new problem, but many will recall the year in which the council hiked up its tax by a quarter.
Twenty-four years ago Britain was also battling to stave off a recession, and Hillingdon Council found itself in dire financial straits.
When news of a 24 per cent rate increase broke, angry protestors had to be locked outside the Civic Centre while councillors formalised the budget. Residents waved placards in the freezing February cold outside the building after a barricade of policemen prevented them from entering.
The policy and resource committee meeting approved the proposal for a target of a 24 per cent rate increase.
Council Leader Norman Hawkins claimed, at the time, to be fearful that not imposing higher rates would lead to widespread redundancies in the private sector. He said many local firms would otherwise face bankruptcy and described the situation as Hillingdon's greatest crisis.
The rates for residents were set to increase from £119.56 to £148.42, with precepts for the Greater London Council, London Regional Transport and the Metropolitan Police bringing increases to £180.
Protestors gathered before the meeting as councillors made their way in, to make clear how unpopular any proposals would be. They waved signs demanding "No Cuts" and one mimicked the recently released Ghostbusters film with a "Cutbusters" placard.
The news of a rate increase was not a surprise to residents, and at one time a 44 per cent increase was even mooted by the Government as a target for councils to impose.
And, despite the rate increase, cuts in education were confirmed at the meeting. A week earlier, news of this had led to a sit-in protest in the Civic Centre with 500 residents taking part.
Constance Evans, chairwoman of the Oak Farm Residents' Association, recalls the protests well. She said: "I remember a lot of trouble about the rateable values, and people were also complaining there weren't the services for the amount of money we were paying. A lot of the services were being curtailed."
Calls by Councillor Peter Fagan, leader of the Labour group, asked to have the council's budget debated further in public because he believed the proposals would only lead to extra money troubles in the borough, but this request was rejected outright by the Conservative councillors.

text: We are flying out of Philly on a 6am flight so I am looking to stay the night before at (or near) the airport. Before we moved here we always stayed at Logan and the hotels offered parking (for a fee) for the duration of the trip. I checked the Mariott in the airport and they specifically say you can't leave your car. Anyone know of a hotel that does allow stay, park and fly? It dosen't have to be fancy but clean and safe with a shuttle. I have googled and searched and so far come up with nothing. TIA TJ

It was an emotional episode of Christina Milian Turned Up!
Christina Milian broke down in tears while talking about her relationship with her ex Lil Wayne during the episode. While having a discussion with her dad, Don, Christina opened up about her relationship and she couldn't stop her tears from flowing.
Also on Tuesday's episode, Lizzy Milian and Danielle Milian got into a heated argument after Danielle went behind her back and met with Lizzy's boyfriend Dom.
What else happened on the episode?
Find out in the Christina Milian Turned Up episode recap below!
1. Christina's Girl Group Ceraadi Storms Out of Recording Session:
At the end of the last episode of CMTU, Christina brought her girl group Ceraadi to a recording studio to record music with producers Silent Killers. But, when tensions started running high, Ceraadi's mom and manager Sandra got into a fight with Ocean, one of the producers. On this week's episode we saw the conclusion of the fight.
The fight was so heated, Christina and the other producers had to step in and calm everyone down.
"I did not come and bring everyone together for this to be really awkward," Christina says. "I want to make a song. I came to make a song, I came to enjoy making a song with my artist and I came to make it with my favorite producers."
When asked if they want to record the song, the group and their mom decide to leave.
2. Lizzy's Boyfriend Meets Her Dad:
Lizzy and her boyfriend Dom took their relationship to another level on this episode of CMTU. During Danielle daughter Naomi's birthday party, Dom and Don, Lizzy's dad, meet for the first time. Watch what happened during their first meeting in the video above!
3. Christina Breaks Down in Tears:
After Don meets Dom, he discusses what he thinks about Lizzy's boyfriend with Danielle and Christina. The conversation then leads to Christina's romantic life.
Don says, "We have two girls..."
Christina cuts in and says, "Two girls taken and one... achin'."
She then goes on to say that she "doesn't know" what she wants from her ex and explains that there have been "emotional ups and downs." She also adds that she's "confused."
When Christina starts to cry her dad asks, "What's going on?"
Christina tells him that she recently split with her boyfriend.
"We kind of just broke up recently," Christina says. "It's crazy because we were just with each other and we were really happy and then I found out something he had lied to me about. This was something that was like he really got caught."
When discussing what they should do, Don tells Christina to "be true to your heart."
He adds, "Don't give up on something easy, but don't be a fool either."
4. Dom and Danielle Meet to Discuss Lizzy:
Dom has to go back to France for his son's birthday and he's feeling a bit uneasy about leaving Lizzy. So he and Danielle meet up to discuss what Dom should do.
"I need to talk to Danielle about how to handle Lizzy," Dom says. "Because I feel like Lizzy she's freaking out because I have to go back to France and I really need help from Danielle to give me some advice to calm Lizzy."
During their lunch meeting, Danielle and Dom talk about his relationship with Lizzy and Danielle tells him she doesn't think she's ready to take the next step with him.
"When Lizzy talks she talks like she's ready for family and she's ready for the next big step and I don't think she is," Danielle says. "I think she needs time."
5. Ceraadi & Silent Killers Agree to Work Together Again:
After their explosive studio argument, Christina meets with Silent Killers and Ceraadi separately.
"I think that the song 'Popular' could be an instant hit if Ceraadi actually recorded it," Christina says. "But I really need Silent Killers and Ceraadi to put their differences aside so that we can make some hits together. They're the perfect match, I just have to convince them of that."
Christina does just that, and both parties agree to give it another try.
6. Dom Tells Lizzy About His Meeting With Danielle:
After his meeting with Danielle, Dom is pissed. He tells Lizzy about his meeting with Danielle and explains what she told him about her dating history.
"This trip to France gonna make me, like, think a lot," Dom says.
"Honestly if it's something that you need to figure out, if you think I'm some kind of heartbreak kid, that's great for you," Lizzy tells Dom and storms off.
The two end up having a talk later and they make up.
"At the end of the day, I love her and I don't care about her past," Dom says.
7. Lizzy Confronts Danielle:
After hearing about Danielle's conversation with Dom, Lizzy decides to confront her sister. But, when Lizzy tries to discuss her secret meeting with Dom, Danielle doesn't think she did anything wrong. Watch what happens in the video above!
8. Danielle and Lizzy Make Up:
After their argument, Danielle comes over to Christina's house to get ready for the Latino Media Awards.
Danielle explains she didn't intentionally do anything to hurt Lizzy.
"I'm not trying to break you guys up at all," Danielle says. "I want you guys to be together and be happy. I want to make sure that he doesn't fall into the same cycle that all the other guys did."
Danielle also explains that she should've told Lizzy about their meeting.
Lizzy then makes her say, "My darling sister, I'm sorry if I disrupted your relationship in any way by anything that I said."
The girls then get ready and head off to the Latino Media Awards together with their mom Carmen Milian.

I fell in love with Miku after seeing a few of her PVs up on YouTube and decided I simply had to make this costume. The shirt in the photos is the second version, after botching the first shirt horribly somehow. The skirt and sleeves are pleather, and the "electronic" details were drawn in Adobe Illustrator, printed onto photo paper, and sewn onto the costume. The shoes were purchased from Payless Shoes and painted along the rims. Since these photos were taken I have created a new, better set of earphones and ponytail... things. I hope to constantly improve this costume eventually by adding LEDs to the skirt, earphones and sleeves.

RANGERS have confirmed they are facing a debt claim from Singapore-based firm Orlit Enterprises, but that "agreement has been reached".
The club said the unspecified sum was an "insignificant" amount and posed no threat to the club, but did not disclose the size of the debt.
Orlit is believed to have been involved in securing finances for the buyout of Rangers assets led by Charles Green.
It was reported Rangers were facing the prospect of a winding up order over an unpaid debt of £400,000 to the financing company.
The club statement said: "With regard to stories circulating about Rangers and Orlit, the sums sought are insignificant and agreement has been reached subject to the necessary paperwork."

Dramatic pictures have emerged of more than 100 firefighters battling a warehouse blaze.
Plumes of thick black smoke could be seen for miles as the flames tore through the two-storey building in west London.
One photograph posted on Twitter showed the smoke rising over the roof of Wembley Stadium.
People have been advised to keep their windows and doors closed to stop toxic fumes getting into their homes.
London Fire Brigade station manager Jeff Lisle said: "Crews are working very hard in difficult conditions.
"Firefighters are using aerial ladder platforms to tackle the fire from numerous vantage points and ensure the blaze doesn't spread to neighbouring warehouses.
"While we are making excellent progress, we expect to work on this fire into the night.
"This isn't a residential area but the smoke is travelling quite a distance so do keep windows and doors shut if you are local."
The fire broke out in Wadsworth Road, Perivale just before 7pm last night.
At least 15 crews from Heston, Northolt, Chiswick, Wembley, Park Royal, Ruislip and Ealing were sent to the scene.
Around 30 people were evacuated from the building and there were no reports of any injuries.
The cause of the fire is not yet known.

Chris Brown took to his twitter yesterday afternoon to announce that the European leg of his tour 'Fan Appreciation Tour' had been cancelled. The first stop on the tour was to be Glasgow beginning June 9th. Ironically it had been reported that tickets were selling out so I'm guessing Brown's prior domestic violence conviction is playing a role on the tour cancellation.
When will this guy catch a break. I'm sympathetic to victims of domestic violence but even I'm getting tired of Brown continuing to be crucified for his mistake, as horrible as it was.
For the purpose of making a formal announcement Brown's tweet as since been taken down.
Update: Here is the official statement released by Brown's publicist,
"Due to issues surrounding his work visa, the Ireland and United Kingdom leg of Chris Brown's Fan Appreciation Tour has been postponed. Chris looks forward to performing for his fans abroad in the near future and thanks them for their continued support".
Meanwhile, Britain's Home Office released a statement of their own,
"We reserve the right to refuse entry to the UK to anyone guilty of a serious criminal offence. Public safety is one of our primary concerns. Each application to enter the UK is considered on its individual merits".
It appears Brown's 2009 domestic violence charges following his violent altercation with then girlfriend Rihanna is the reason for denial to enter the country.
When will this all end so we can go back to normal?

Carnedd Dafydd
Though close by, the massive Carnedd Dafydd is a very different proposition than its slightly loftier brother – Carnedd Llewelyn – due to the prescence of the towering northern cliffs of Ysgolion Duon.
Best route: A great way up is via the Llech Ddu spur, an underrated Grade 1 scramble up the extraordinary northern flank. A boulder at the bottom has been christened the Bivi Boulder (SH664636)

Nigel writes: Today offered a brief respite from all the recent rain. It was dry all day, and although mostly dull and overcast the sun did put in an appearance in the afternoon. It was also remarkably mild - about 10C all day. A perfect opportunity for a little light exercise ahead of the inevitable Christmas over-indulgence. Also at Brookside I found Averil, Rupert and Conrad our leader.
Today was planned to be a short ride: coffee in Wilburton, lunch in Ely and then back home to Cambridge. Conrad led us north through the city centre, past King's College where a BBC outside broadcast van stood ready for the afternoon's carol service.
We continued north up Castle Hill (which we remarked would be the biggest hill of the entire day) and along Huntingdon Road to Girton Corner. From here we took the road to Girton and Oakington where we turned right for Cottenham. At Cottenham we joined the B1049 which we followed north to Wilburton. This is not a particularly nice road but today it was mostly quiet.
At Wilburton we stopped for coffee at the Twenty Pence Garden Centre. This was my first visit. I had wondered whether it would be a cut-price version of Poundland where everything was 20p but, alas, it was just another garden centre selling rather overpriced coffee and cakes.
Already in the cafe were Adrian and young Vic and we were soon joined by Will, Brian, Lynn and Cheryl.
There were few other customers; Santa sat in a shed outside, waiting for visitors. Averil spotted some snow falling outside the window and rushed outside to enjoy it.
After coffee we carried on north to Ely. We were now a somewhat larger group than before. We didn't have far to go and despite going via Coveney and Little Downham we arrived there at about 12.15pm. As we cycled along we passed large areas of flooded fenland, but the road itself was dry.
We had lunch at the Cutter Inn down by the river. Afterwards we returned back to Cambridge. We followed NCR 11 along the Ouse floodbank and then along the unsurfaced farm track further south. We had been worried this might be flooded but the worst we encountered was some mud and a few large puddles.
The ride home via Upware and Lode was surprisingly hard work: the southerly wind which had sped our progress in the morning was now directly against us. Fortunately we didn't have far to go and I arrived back home at about 3.15pm (in time to wash the mud off my bike before it got dark), having cycled 49 miles.

As reported in our last Competition Update, a new competition law (Federal Law No. 4 of 2012, the Competition Law) came into effect in the UAE on 23 February 2013. The Competition Law seeks to regulate market behaviour, particularly in relation to abuse of a dominant position, merger control and the regulation of restrictive agreements. However, since coming into effect there has been uncertainty over the enforcement of the Competition Law. This was mainly due to the fact that the Competition Law envisaged further regulations setting out more detail on a number of critical points, including:
- the relevant market share thresholds for the definition of "dominant position" and the triggering of economic concentration pre-approval (Merger Approvals) requirements;
- the scope of the "weak agreement" exception applicable to certain restrictive agreements; and
- the applicable exemption / clearance procedures for relevant practices and transactions.
The UAE Cabinet has now issued implementing regulations relating to the Competition Law (Cabinet Decision No. 37 of 2014 (the Regulations)), which came into force on 27 October 2014. The Regulations are to be welcomed in that they clarify the applicable exemption / clearance procedures. Significant gaps do, however, remain which (as will be seen below) means that there is continued uncertainty regarding the application of the Competition Law.
This article looks at the key provisions of the Regulations and considers their potential effect on M&A transactions in the UAE.
The Regulations
The Regulations set out the procedures relating to:
- exemptions from the rules prohibiting restrictive agreements and abuse of a dominant position;
- Merger Approvals; and
- investigation of complaints relating to violations of the Competition Law.
Exemptions/Merger Approvals
In broad terms, applications for exemptions and Merger Approvals should be made to the competition department of the UAE Ministry of Economy (the Department). Certain specified documents must be provided along with the application. The Department will examine the application and submit a recommendation to the UAE Minister of Economy (the Minister). The Minister shall then either approve the application (with or without conditions) or reject it. In terms of timeframes, the Minister must issue his decision within 90 days of notifying the relevant parties of receipt of the application, although this period may be extended by a further 45 days.
Any stakeholder may submit a complaint to the Department concerning any violation of the Competition Law. The complaint must be accompanied by certain specified documents. The Department will either reject the complaint or accept it for further investigation. If the latter, the Department will notify the relevant parties, allow them to defend the allegations and issue a report and recommendation to the Minister. The Minister will then issue a decision on the matter within 30 days of receipt of the report.
Practical effect
There are certain key matters which are not addressed in the Regulations and which remain subject to separate determination by the UAE Cabinet. Such matters include:
- the relevant market share thresholds for the definition of "dominant position" and for triggering Merger Approval requirements;
- what constitutes a small and medium-sized enterprise (these enterprises are not caught by the Competition Law); and
- what constitutes a "weak agreement" for the purposes of the restrictive agreements exception.
In the absence of this information, uncertainty remains. For example, it is unclear whether parties can be said to have breached the Merger Approval regime when the relevant market share threshold trigger has not been specified. Further, it is uncertain how the procedures referred to above will be implemented in practice while these issues remain open.
M&A Transactions
Will the Regulations lead to competition approvals becoming conditions precedent?
In jurisdictions with actively enforced merger control regimes, obtaining competition approval is a fundamental step of many M&A transactions. Typically the sale and purchase agreement (SPA) is signed and the obtaining of the competition approval is included as a condition precedent (CP) to completion. The SPA will set out who is responsible for making filings, the obligations of each party in the approval process, and the like.
Such CPs have not ordinarily been contained in UAE SPAs up to now due to the fact that it was not apparent from the Competition Law in what circumstances a notification had to be made, to whom a notification should be submitted and what information needed to be provided. The Regulations now at least clarify who the notification should be made to, and the information required, but the thresholds for notification and some questions of form (i.e. hard copy or electronic) still have to be decided. Following the issue of the Regulations each transaction will now need to be considered on a deal-by-deal basis. In some instances it may be clearer than others that an acquisition will have a negative or adverse effect on competition (by, for example, creating or strengthening a dominant position) - in those circumstances the parties will need to investigate whether the Department will accept a notification and then assess whether a CP should be included, and if so what it should say, in light of the feedback received from the Department. In other instances it may be clear that an acquisition will not have a negative or adverse effect on competition, in which case the parties may be more comfortable with not consulting with the Department and not including approval as a CP.
Submission of "draft contract or agreement"
The Regulations provide that a "draft contract or agreement" must be submitted as part of the Merger Approval application. It is unclear what this term means. One view is that it means a draft of the long form SPA which includes all the commercial terms agreed between the parties. Another view is that it means the short form sale agreement that is submitted to the Department of Economic Development as part of the share transfer approval process (and which does not include the commercial terms). As a result of this uncertainty it is unclear whether or not the parties are permitted, prior to submission of the application, to enter into a long form SPA which provides that completion is conditional on approval.
Other SPA provisions
In other jurisdictions there are various other merger approval concerns which are commonly addressed in SPAs. Some examples are set out below.
- Warranties commonly address merger approval requirements, typically by one of the parties warranting to the other that the performance of the agreement does not require third-party approvals (including merger approvals) except as specified. This provides contractual comfort regarding the required approvals and the possibility of bringing a claim if the warranty turns out to be untrue.
- The parties to an SPA will not want to be held to their agreement indefinitely and therefore a "long stop date" will typically be included, after which one or both of the parties may terminate the agreement if the CPs (including merger approvals) have not been satisfied. The relevant date is a matter for negotiation but in general it should take account of the period of time the parties expect will be required to obtain the merger approvals.
- In seller-friendly documents, the strongest possible commitment may be sought from the buyer by including a "hell or high water" clause where the buyer agrees to undertake any actions (including divestitures) that are required to obtain the merger approval. This has the effect of increasing the likelihood of the deal closing, which is usually a key seller concern. In this regard it is interesting to note that Article 9(3)(c) of the Regulations provides that the Minister may approve a merger subject to the concerned establishments implementing certain specified conditions and obligations - this may result in sellers in strong bargaining positions pushing for such "hell or high water" type clauses.
These types of provisions have not historically been seen in UAE SPAs due to the uncertainty of the Competition Law referred to above. However, given that grey areas continue to exist and the possibility that the open issues discussed in this article could be clarified between signing an SPA and completion, a prudent approach would be for parties to UAE M&A transactions to start considering the inclusion of such provisions going forward.
The Regulations are undoubtedly a positive step but we await the UAE Cabinet's further clarification on key issues such as the dominant position and Merger Approval thresholds. Until such time, the full extent of the effects of the Competition Law will not be completely understood and the competition-related provisions referred to above are unlikely to appear in UAE SPAs.

cultural origins: 1970s
Soft rock, also referred to as light rock or easy rock, is a style of music which uses the techniques of rock and roll to compose a softer, supposedly more ear-pleasing sound for listening, often at work or when driving. Soft rock is known to be confused with psychedelic rock many times. Soft rock is usually sung with higher-pitched vocals, and the lyrics tend to be non-confrontational, focusing in very general language on themes like love, everyday life and relationships. The genre tends to make heavy use of pianos, synthesizers and sometimes saxophones. The electric guitars in soft rock are normally faint and high-pitched.
Soft rock is a style of rock that emerged in the early 1970s, both as a reaction against the increasingly heavy music (punk rock and heavy metal, etc.) that dominated rock at the time, as well as a reflection of the changing priorities of the Baby Boom in the early 1970s.
By 1977, some radio stations, like New York's WTFM and WYNY, had switched to an all-soft rock format. Around that same time, Chicago, which had previously been a jazz rock band, switched to soft rock and reached their biggest commercial successes. British/American blues band Fleetwood Mac achieved its greatest success after adopting parts of the genre. Even Led Zeppelin, considered by some to be standard bearers of hard rock, flirted with the genre at the time in songs like "All My Love" (1979). By the 1980s, tastes had changed and radio formats reflected this change; the genre evolved into what came to be known as "adult contemporary", a pop categorisation that bore less overt rock influence than its fore-bearer.

Q I applied for SSDI in Boston for my depression. Now I just found out that I was denied. I'm scared and worried about my future. You work with others in my position. Do you have any coping mechanisms?
Depression is a serious condition that can take over your life. Add in the stress and fear that goes along with being denied Social Security disability insurance (SSDI) ,and you face an upward battle. To overcome depression requires that you take action, but taking action while fighting depression is not easy. It's a struggle that others like you have faced, too. There are a few things you can do to help during this difficult time.
Coping With Depression After an SSDI Denial
As Boston Social Security lawyers, we work with many people who've faced this same struggle. Here are a few things that they have done to cope with the symptoms of depression during a difficult time.
- Find someone you trust to talk to. Many people don't understand the stress and difficulty you're facing when applying for SSDI. During this grueling period, it is important that you seek help from someone who knows what it's like to go through the process of applying and what it's like to be denied. Find someone you can trust and confide in him or her how the process has made you feel. Opening up is the first step toward moving forward.
- Limit your negative thoughts. It's easy to get caught in the downward spiral of worrying about the "what-ifs" of the future. What if you never get benefits? What if you never get better? Thinking this way does more harm than good. When you find yourself getting overwhelmed by negative thoughts, imagine looking at a stop sign. Consider this your visual cue to stop thinking those thoughts and focus on something else instead.
- Focus on your health. Your physical health has a direct impact on your mental health and well-being. Focus on staying physically healthy to make coping during this difficult time a little bit easier. Try to eat fresh, healthy foods, get enough sleep, and get out in the sunlight each day. Doing this will keep you feeling a little bit happier each day.
Dealing with depression is challenging, especially after being denied SSDI. Have you found any other coping mechanisms to make your depression a little bit easier to live with? Connect with us with your advice and we will try to share the best suggestions with others in a later post.

Picture: Flo Rida performs at Y 100 Jingle Ball 2009 at the Bank Atlantic Center Fort Lauderdale, USA - 12.12.09
Pop sensaTIon KE$HA added the dollar sign to her stage moniker after failing to recoup any royalties for singing on Flo Rida's RIGHT ROUND.
The newcomer made download history over Christmas (09) when her debut track TiK ToK shifted more than 610,000 copies - the most sold in one week since the chart started in 2003.
She beat Flo Rida's chart-topping track - which features her uncredited vocals - into the number two spot.
And the singer reveals the lack of recognition for her work on the rapper's song led her to add the currency symbol to her name - because she was so broke.
She says, "It was an accident I was even on the track. I didn't make any money off it, that's why I put the dollar sign in my name as a joke.
"But I was happy singing in bars, wearing clothes I found in garbage and surrounded by people who love me."

Dude, #LochteGate is trending right now. This has gotten SO WEIRD.
Ryan's story has changed, and the authorities are feeling pretty confident right now – the whole update AND the video that shows something very different than the original story are all right here.
