Theatre SC's Modern Adaptation of "The Three Musketeers" is Fun For the Whole Family Review by August Krickel. Rapiers are drawn, wits clash, daggers are brandished, and plots are hatched in an action-packed yet family-friendly update of The Three Musketeers, running through this weekend at USC's Drayton Hall. Playwright Ken Ludwig, best known for broad farces like Lend Me a Tenor and Moon Over Buffalo, has an interest in the classics as well, and has previously penned adaptations of Treasure Island, Tom Sawyer, and the Restoration comedy The Beaux' Stratagem for the stage. Here he takes the core plot of the famous adventure novel by Alexandre Dumas, distills it to its barest essence, then adds an array of stage tricks and techniques to make the potentially dated material (palace intrigue in 1625 Paris written for a 19th century French readership) accessible to a modern and younger audience. Director Robert Richmond has taken this a step further, employing his trademark visual flair to depict the proceedings as seen through the eyes of an enraptured little girl (Miranda Bourne), encountering the story for the first time. The result is sometimes both amusing and surreal, occasionally silly and/or thrilling, but never boring. While the plot really isn't the point, I must say that
Ludwig's script makes its intricacies crystal-clear, moreso than any previous
version I've seen, and he remains absolutely faithful to the original, with one
vital exception: Planchet, D'Artagnan's comic manservant is now a girl. Not
just any girl, but rather D'Artagnan's non-canonical, gamine-like little
sister, Sabine. Their father is sending Sabine off to a convent school in
Paris, and it makes sense for her brother to accompany her on his way to seek
enlistment with the Musketeers (imagine a 17th-century Special Forces
team.) Sabine has her own ideas, however, and is as handy with a sword as
her father and brother. A female swashbuckler is a nifty notion, although
not new: Maureen O'Hara famously played the daughter of Aramis in the film At
Sword's Point, and a pre-Samantha Kim Cattrall turned up as the daughter of
the villainous Milady de Winter in Richard Lester's Return of the Musketeers.
Nicole Dietze does a great job as Sabine, and is up for the physicality that
the role requires. William Vaughan is similarly a good fit for the role of
D'Artagnan, full of the foolishness, impetuosity and idealism of youth. Both
performers have mastered swordplay techniques, as well as the comic banter that
typifies the play's dialogue. Ludwig short-changes Sabine with time on stage,
however, and I do wish she had been even more integral to the plot, which as in
the original focuses on D'Artagnan's adventures with the titular trio. In this pared-down version, that trio isn't given much
opportunity to develop their specific characters either, but Benjamin
Roberts as Athos, Dimitri Woods as Porthos, and Matthew Cavender as Aramis do
their best with what they're given. My only gripe here would be their seeming
youth, as they appear to be only slightly older than D'Artagnan, rather than
the jaded, world-weary veterans more commonly portrayed. That's not a huge
problem, although the appearance of more years of melancholy would have made
some revelations about Athos's past more meaningful. John Floyd gets plenty of
laughs as an addled and foppish King Louis who just loves balls. That's
the fancy-dress kind, in one of the play's many ba-da-boom-ching jokes that can
be hilarious, tedious, or both, depending on how broad you like your comedy. Lisa Martin-Stuart's costumes reflect the period appropriately,
although I would have liked to see Richelieu in more traditional Cardinal's
robes. Wigs by Valerie Pruett are outstanding; this was an era where men and
women alike had lots of full flowing hair, and not only do the wigs look
natural, but more importantly none fall off during the play's many action
scenes. Scenic Designer Tamara Joksimovic's set is intentionally dream-like,
with suggestions of stairs, columns, and street facades. Its main component is
rotated by cast members to reveal assorted locations, and while I might have
preferred more realism, it certainly does its job, especially given that
director Richmond establishes early on that we are seeing the story of the
Musketeers as imagined by a child, who has projected herself, as Sabine, into
the plot. At intermission, one veteran local actor grinned and said "Gotta
love Robert Richmond." And I knew what he meant instantly - Richmond
often re-imagines classics with baroque and flamboyant staging. This
inventiveness sometimes enhances or adds clarity to difficult text; here,
Ludwig's script has already done that, and so the frantic, carnival-like
atmosphere is certainly fascinating, although I'm not sure if it really adds
anything in the long run. In particular, the actors are quite adept with
Casey Kaleba's fight choreography, and I would have enjoyed more
straightforward duel scenes, whereas here they often segue into slapstick
chases accompanied by modern music, in the style of an episode of Scooby Doo
or The Monkees. Some of that is Ludwig's doing, though, and there's more to it than one realizes. I was prepared to conclude that the cast does fine with some awfully childish material, until I discovered the backstory. Ludwig was commissioned to create this new version of the Dumas classic by the Bristol Old Vic, an offshoot of the Old Vic in London, and it debuted in early December of 2006 as a new adventure play for family audiences. There's a tradition in the UK called pantomine - not silent miming, but rather holiday seasonal entertainment for children and their parents. Components of "panto" often include a new adaptation of a familiar classic, a simple plot, broad physical comedy, anachronistic use of contemporary music, double entendres that only the adults will get, madcap chase scenes, cartoon-like violence and sound effects, and a girl protagonist dressed as a boy. Ludwig's new Three Musketeers incorporates all of those, right down to a pantomime horse (i.e. two actors in a crazy-looking horse costume.) While its run time of more than two and a half hours makes this much more than a children's play, and while it's not an actual pantomime, it's not bad at all for a stage show aimed at younger audiences. In the program Richmond admits to enjoying the same television and cinematic incarnations of this story that I too enjoyed as a child, and my own first exposure to the Musketeers was via a Classics Illustrated comic book I read during the summer after first grade. As a result, this is that rare show at USC that can genuinely be described as "fun for the whole family." It's by no means deep drama, but possibly a great way to introduce youngsters who have overdosed on the Pirates of the Caribbean films to live performance, along with any theatre-phobic adults you may know who have resisted accompanying you to see more serious shows. The Three Musketeers continues through this Saturday, April 25 at Drayton Hall Theatre on the USC campus, with an additional matinee performance Saturday afternoon.

Hey guys, I'm planning to buy a Macbook with 512 RAM stock, but I want to upgrade to atleast 2GB minimum. Can you guys help me check out if this RAM would fit? And if it does, would it work well? People are saying that Crucials Ram's work best.
1. http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-DDR2-RAM-MEM...QQcmdZViewItem or. 2. http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-DDR2-OPTIVAL...QQcmdZViewItem or. 3. http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-Kit-RAM-Memo...QQcmdZViewItem or. 4. http://cgi.ebay.com/2GB-APPLE-MACBOO...QQcmdZViewItem Theres not even a brand name on this ! lol but it got a lifetime warranty xD So should I buy or no buy? I'm looking for a cheap way to upgrade to the 2GB RAM. if i shouldn't get it from that ebay auction, does anyone know any deals going on right now for some cheap ram ? thanks. appreciate it. Im buying on spot the minute i see a good deal. |

One shouldnt automatically assume these days that every seller on eBay is selling 2nd hand. A LOT of shops and stores have internet presences on eBay nowadays . They often sell the same gear slightly cheaper on the net than they do with their bricks and mortar shop Of course if its 2nd hand its asking for trouble since you never know if its Mr Static thats selling you it etc In this case i dont see the problem tbh.Hes got 99.3% feedback which with over 5k feedback aint bad at all.Hes also offering 7 day returns. As i said just cause its ebay doesnt make it automatically crap.Not all brick and mortar shops handle their gear that well either :p |

Rear speaker wires (never sound bar)
I have searched this forum and others and just cannot seem to locate the rear speaker wires for my 98. This jeep never had a sound bar that I can tell, so I assume the wires are in the door or bar somewhere?
We installed an aftermarket stereo and found that there were 4 speakers wired in the plugs at the back of the OEM radio, so they must go somewhere? Of course, they disapear into a big bundle of wires and go left and right in the dash, no way to trace them unless you break up the bundle. I hope this collection of bright Wrangler owners knows this simple question. Thanks, Todd NW Montana |
Under the edge of the door opening on the drivers side tub.
Then they go up the rollbar under the covers. Unzip the rollbar cover right beside the drivers seat and you should find the wires. ;) |
Excellent, should I expect a connector of some sort? If it is a connector, where to get a corresponding connector so I can wire in my own speakers?
The rear speakers go to a red connector in a group of connectors in the left kick panel area. It has 10 pins & if the jeep did not come with a sound bar there is no "back half" of that connector (never installed). You should be able to connect there. The wire colors you are looking are: BR/YL, BR/LB, DB/WT, DB/PK
"IN SOFT-TOP 2 - SPEAKER SYSTEM VEHICLES THE FEMALE SIDE OF C323 IS NOT PRESENT" So no wires go up the roll bar. |

Which Cam to Choose?
Dear everyone,
I'm about to start a new SBC overhaul and have below parts ready to go with. I used the same parts for a previous 350 SBC about a month ago with Edelbrock Performer Plus Cam Kit #2102, but for this new project I will need a little bid more serious engine. I've already got: -Edelbrock Heads 64cc #60909 -Edelbrock RPM Air Gap Intake #7501 -Holley 750 CFM Double Pump -1.5 Ratio Rocker Rollers from Summit -1-5/8" Flow Tech Full lenght headers -GM Forged Crank -Speed Pro Flat top pistons (+.030") with 4 valve relieves (which will deliver 10.2:1 compression rati with my 64cc heads) -Melling stock replacement oil pump -3.73 rear end I do not have Cam yet? I'll be driving the car over the weekends mainly on the street and strip. Any suggestions for the cam to deliver the best torque and/or HP? I need at least +400 of HP and Torque for this car. I'm stuck between Edelbrock's Performer RPM Series Cams which are supposed to deliver 420 HP's and 408 ft/lbs of Torque with a compression ratio of 9.5:1 and other brands such as Comp Cams and Lunati. What range of power will I get using a Comp Cam 270H with this engine? Is it a good choice? Don't really want to go for a poor idle and low vaccum for power brakes, etc. Thanks very much for all the comments and suggestions. Houman SS '70
Sponsored Links | |||
cam vs carb
I would have chosen 2 valve relief pistons. Would have got you 10.4 compression. I would step down to a 650 cfm carb. Every sb I build I use the Crane 302H06 cam.
[URL]http://members.shaw.ca/g.body.building[/URL] |
Thanks for the advises.
Bracketeer, ain't 302H06 too much for my application? I mean the idle is gonna be very poor? Right? And it will definitly affect my power accressories, doesn't it? And after all how many ft/lbs or Hp's will I get with that? Anything close to what I want? Regrading the 280H Magnum cam, I think that's a good choice as well, but as Comp Cams catalogue says, that will most probabely affect my power accesories and will also need a torqe converter. Do you guys have any dyno's with the cams you mentioned? Any comments about 270H? Thanks very much. Houman SS '70 |
torque convertor
If you don't have a convertor you are in trouble. The Edelbrock cam requires a torque convertor. With the size of carb you have you are going to need a fairly large cam. If you don't want to purchase a torque convertor. You will definitely have to drop down to a 650. The largest cam recommended by Comp for no stall is the XE268H. I used it in a 350 exactly like yours and pulled appx 400 HP. As far as the Crane cam goes. I have a 79 Vette with vacuum headlights and power brakes. No problems.
[URL]http://members.shaw.ca/g.body.building[/URL] |
I got the 270 magnum cam with my last engine build and I love it. The idle is fair with it. It also has a darn good powerband. It gave me great low end power and will pull steady for as long as I care to take it. It is recomened that you use the valve springs comp. suggestfor the cam. I only have a slightly higer then stock stall (around 1200) which IMO is too small for this cam and at least in my car would work much better with a bigger one. (slightly over 2000)
Chris |
Thanks for the advise Bracketeer. I can actually change the carb to a 650 cfm double pump, because I already have one. But do you really think that the xe 268h will give me +400 of Hp? And how about Torque?
I can later on change the torque converter to a 1500 stall TCI Street Fighter, but do you think that going with a 270H or 268H and even the 290, can use the stock torque converter for a couple of month? I'm out of money somehow! I am planning to overhaul my th 350 with TCI's Pro Super Kit, then I can also change the converter. And Chris thanks for the advise, do you have any dyno's for your engine? Anything over 400hp's. Sorry guys but I've never used such cams for my engines, I really don't know if they are really streetable or not?? Are they? Thanks very much. |
Well Houman...I have AFR heads so that does help a bit. I have not had the engine dyno tested yet but AFR built almost the same engine I have You can look at the test HERE
It's the one under the top two thats says 355. They used the 270 cam. Made 430 hp at 5500 and 470ft lb at 4500... Not sure what your heads would do with it but You may be darn close to 400 hp. IMO Chris |
engine dyno info
you can chek out this site for dyno tests and combinations that closely resemble yours. www.ryanscarpage.50megs.com/combos11.html
Thanks Chris. I actually checked out the AFR website and found your combo there! It seems that you've got a hot engine under the hood.
I should ask you the following questions: 1- What is your intake? ( is it the same as the combo?) 2- And your Carb? 3- Is it good enough in the street? Specially when using a higher than stock converter? Any Overheating problems in the traffic? 4- Have you got a external tranny cooler? 5- What are your valve springs? The ones that came on the AFR heads or comps? Do you think that my Edelbrock Head valves will be good enough for this cam? 6- And finally do you have enough vacuum for your power brakes? IMO as I studied the Comp Cams catalogs the 270 is the most practical(streetable) of all the cams and I think that I'll just go with that. I just hope that I'll have enought hood clearance with the RPM Air Gap Intake. I also checked your project journal out, I also had all the body mounts of my 1970 Camaro SS replaced with Prothane Urethane mounts. So did the same with all the suspension bushings. The interesting part was the my Rear leaf spring bushings were the original factory GM rubber bushings and they were in fine codition. Enjoy your car. Houman |
I think that I'll be using the same cam as Chris has used the 270H by Comp. Take care, Houman |
Thanks for the advise. I checked the AFR's dyno result on the 270H, I don't know what the advantages or disadvantages of the AFR intakes are with Edelbrock's but as far as I'm concerend they used a 600 CFM Carb with the 270H. As you suggested I'll take the Holley 650 DP, and use it with the Comp's 270H. My Edelbrock 60909 Heads have 64 cc chambers with 170 cc runners, comparing to AFR with 180 cc runners, but I don't know how much that will reduce my power, I think I will loose mainly on the upper rpms, not on the lower end. Anyway if you suggest any better Intakes than the RPM Air Gap for my combo, I'll really appreciate it. Thanks for your comments. Houman |
Intake is the edl. performer Which works good enough for the combo but it would fair better with the RPM series. I also looked into the AFR intakes. For the money they seem pretty good. Carb is a 600CFM Vac. 2nds Holley. I had a 750 DP on it and it ran well and would be fine with tuning but I find that I get much better throttle response with the 600 and better gas mileage. It seems to feed the engine fine. I have had to problems over heating. I have a 4 core BeCool rad. but as far as temps go I have no problems at all. Sitting in traffic it idles fine (1000 RPM warm) With the 1200 stall in it (TH 350 with shift kit) I don't run a tranny cooler if I moved up the the 2000 ish stall I would though (more stall = more heat) I used the springs that came on the AFR heads. I asked the question here as to weather they would work with the cam and the answer was they would work fine. Find out what the eld. springs are rated for. AFR is rated to almost .550 of lift. so find what your heads springs are rated to. I also used the 1.5 roller rockers. Power brakes work fine. The cam really is not all the extreme. I mean you can hear the idle sitting in drive. As for the power acc. it has no real effect. All around the driveablity of the engine is great. Working on the car durning the winter I was able to start it up and have it idle without problem after a few mins. of warm up. I have to complaints about it. Chris |

Comparatively, the 112th Congress had 4.2 percent of introduced bills enacted into law in the second session.[4] The Senate confirmed 13,949 out of 18,323 executive nominations received (76.1 percent). For more information pertaining to Lee's voting record in the 113th Congress, please see the below sections.[5]
National security
John Brennan CIA nomination
Lee voted against the confirmation of John Brennan as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. The nomination was confirmed by the Senate on March 7, 2013, with a vote of 63 - 34. Most Democrats supported the nomination, while Republicans were somewhat divided with roughly one-third supporting the nomination.[6]
Drones filibuster
On March 6, 2013, Senator Rand Paul (R) led a 13-hour filibuster of President Obama's CIA Director nominee, John Brennan. Paul started the filibuster in order to highlight his concerns about the administration's drone policies. In particular, Paul said he was concerned about whether a drone could be used to kill an American citizen within the United States border without any due process involved. Paul and other civil liberties activists were critical of President Obama for not offering a clear response to the question. A total of 14 senators joined Paul in the filibuster -- 13 Republicans and one Democrat.[7][8][9]
Lee was one of the 13 Republican senators who joined Paul in his filibuster.[10][11]
According to the website Breitbart, 30 Republican senators did not support the filibuster.[12][13]
The day after the filibuster, Attorney General Eric Holder sent a letter to Paul, responding to the filibuster. Holder wrote, "Does the president have the authority to use a weaponized drone to kill an American not engaged in combat on U.S. soil? The answer to that is no."[14]
Farm bill
On February 4, 2014, the Democratic controlled Senate approved the Federal Agriculture Reform and Risk Management Act of 2013, H.R. 2642, also known as the Farm Bill.[15] It passed the Senate with a vote of 68-32. The nearly 1,000-page bill reformed and continued various programs of the Department of Agriculture through 2018. The $1 trillion bill expanded crop insurance for farmers by $7 billion over the next decade and created new subsidies for rice and peanut growers that will kick in when prices drop; however, cuts to the food stamp program cut an average of $90 per month for 1.7 million people in 15 states.[16] Lee voted with 22 other Republican senators against the bill.
2014 Budget
On January 16, 2014, the Democratic-controlled Senate approved H.R. 3547, a $1.1 trillion spending bill to fund the government through September 30, 2014.[17][18] The Senate voted 72-26 for the 1,582 page bill, with 17 Republicans and 55 Democrats voting in favor of the bill.[18] The omnibus package included 12 annual spending bills to fund federal operations.[19] It increased the paychecks of federal workers and military personnel by 1 percent, increased Head Start funding for early childhood education by $1 billion, reduced funding to the Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency, and left the Affordable Care Act without any drastic cuts.
Lee voted with 25 other Republican members against the bill.[17][18]
Paul Ryan Budget Proposal
In March 2013 the U.S. Senate soundly rejected a balanced budget plan by House Budget Committee chair Paul Ryan (R).[20] Five Republicans joined every Democrat present to kill the measure, which failed on a 40-59 vote.[20]
Lee was one of the five Senate Republicans who voted against Ryan's budget proposal.[20]
The proposed budget would have cut about $5 trillion over the next decade and aimed to balance the budget by the end of the 10-year period.[21]
Some tea party members of the GOP opposed the measure because of its reliance on $600 billion-plus in tax revenues on the wealthy enacted in January 2013, in order to balance the budget.[20] Others in the Senate opposed the Ryan plan because of cuts from safety net programs for the poor and the inclusion of a plan to turn the Medicare program for the elderly into a voucher-like system for future beneficiaries born in 1959 or later.[20]
No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013
Lee voted against H.R.325 -- No Budget, No Pay Act of 2013. The bill passed the Senate on January 31, 2013, with a vote of 64 - 34. The purpose of the bill was to temporarily suspend the debt ceiling and withhold the pay of members of Congress until a budget could be passed. The vote largely followed party lines with Democrats overwhelmingly supporting it and many Republicans in opposition to the bill.[22]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
During the shutdown in October 2013, the Senate rejected, down party lines, every House-originated bill that stripped the budget of funding for the Affordable Care Act. A deal was reached late on October 16, 2013, just hours before the debt ceiling deadline. The bill to reopen the government, H.R. 2775, lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funded the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[23] The final vote on H.R. 2775 was 81-18, with all 18 votes against the bill from Republican members. Lee voted with the Republican Party against the bill.[24]

Mexico-U.S. border
Lee voted for Senate Amendment 1197 -- Requires the Completion of the Fence Along the United States-Mexico Border. The amendment was rejected by the Senate on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 39 - 54. The purpose of the amendment was to require the completion of 350 miles of fence described in the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 before registered provisional immigrant status may be granted. It would also require 700 miles of fence be completed before the status of registered provisional immigrants may be changed to permanent resident status. The vote followed party lines.[25]
Social issues
Violence Against Women (2013)
Lee voted against S.47 -- Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013. The bill was passed by the Senate on February 12, 2013, with a vote of 78 - 22. The purpose of the bill was to combat violence against women, from domestic violence to international trafficking in persons. All 22 dissenting votes were cast by Republicans.[26]
Previous congressional sessions
Fiscal cliff
Lee voted against the fiscal cliff compromise bill, which made permanent most of the Bush tax cuts originally passed in 2001 and 2003, while also raising tax rates on the highest income levels. He was one of five Republicans that voted against the bill. The bill was passed in the Senate by an 89 - 8 vote on January 1, 2013.[27]

Letter to Iran
On March 9, 2015, Senator Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) wrote a letter to Iran's leadership, warning them that signing a nuclear deal with the Obama administration without congressional approval was merely an "executive agreement." The letter also stated that "The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time." The letter was signed by 47 Republican members of the Senate. Lee was one of the 47 who signed the letter. No Democrats signed it.[30]
The letter caused intense backlash from both the Obama administration and the public. Vice President Joe Biden said of the letter, "In thirty-six years in the United States Senate, I cannot recall another instance in which senators wrote directly to advise another country — much less a longtime foreign adversary — that the president does not have the constitutional authority to reach a meaningful understanding with them."[31] On Twitter, the hashtag "47Traitors" became the top trending topic in the world, and a debate raged as to whether the 47 who signed the letter were traitors or patriots.[32]
Presidential preference
Mike Lee (Utah) endorsed Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election. [33]
Endorsement from Ted Cruz
Despite a pledge to steer clear of endorsing incumbents, Ted Cruz financially backed a handful of Senate Republicans.[34] Cruz's leadership political action committee, Jobs Growth and Freedom Fund, made only five donations in the first six months of its existence, and all of those dollars went to incumbents. On May 10, 2013, according to Federal Election Commission records, Cruz made a $2,500 donation to Lee.[34]
On November 2, 2010, Mike Lee won election to the U.S. Senate He defeated Sam F. Granato (D) and Scott N. Bradley (Constitution).[35]

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Lee's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $52,004 to $170,000. That averages to $111,002, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican Senate members in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Lee ranked as the 95th most wealthy senator in 2012.[38] Between 2009 and 2012, Lee's calculated net worth[39] increased by an average of 10 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[40]
Mike Lee Yearly Net Worth | |
Year | Average Net Worth |
2009 | $86,151 |
2012 | $111,002 |
Growth from 2009 to 2012: | 29% |
Average annual growth: | 10%[41] |
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[42] |
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Lee received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Lawyers/Law Firms industry.
From 2009-2014, 19.46 percent of Lee's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[43]

Music GCSE
The GCSE qualification is a highly exciting course but at the same time it is very challenging. It involves a combination of Coursework and External Examinations and all work involves some aspect of Moderation and Marking by the Teachers as well as Moderation by OCR Exam Board Officials.
This course is being offered by the Music Department but there is also a requirement of a minimum of a Grade 4 on your main instrument in order that you would be considered for the course.
The GCSE Course is made up of four mandatory units/areas of study, two of which are externally assessed.
Unit Title | Entry | Duration | Weighting |
Integrated Tasks | Portfolio | 30% | |
Practical Portfolio | Portfolio | 30% | |
Creative Task | Paper | 45 minutes | 15% |
Listening Examination | Paper | 1 hour and 30 minutes | 25% |
Although this is a very intense course, it is designed in order that students who have been having private tuition on an instrument or those that are particularly skilled on their instrument can take up this option with the intent of furthering their studies for a Music A Level.

I'm playing Burnout Paradise on PC, and I've recently gone online, I played the freeburn challenges with someone else hosting and it was pretty fun. When I tried hosting freeburn challenges I simply couldn't do it, I could only start racing events, without any other option else. I press number 6 on the number pad and try to find the option with no success. I'm aware that you got to have at least two people in the room, I did have more than one and sometimes even 3 or 4 people in the room but the option never appeared in the easy drive menu, I tried several times.
I even tried to press the side arrow where it says "race" while choosing the general aspects of the race, but it doesn't change.
What am I doing wrong?
Can't start freeburn challenge.

To host a freeburn game you need to go into the menu and select the play online feature, it should give you the option to create a room or join an existing room, if you create or start the room you can set challenges, if not, only the host has control of the options for this. I've just been online playing it myself and it's pretty much how it worked for me today.

Color: Blue
This amazing Guy Harvey artwork jumps off the short...and it's versatile—surfing, diving, swimming, fishing (even has a pliers pocket lined with Cordura). This quick dry poly-micro fabric is super comfortable and will hold up well to tough use. 21" outseam, 2 side entry pockets, single cargo pocket, tie front, set-in waistband, rear zipper pocket, zip fly... so many features it will blow you out of the water! The Guy Harvey "yellowfin tuna" art never looked so good.

My Creamy Chicken & Cheese Enchiladas
Made This Recipe? Add Your Photo
Total Time
Prep 25 mins
Cook 40 mins
I know it looks like a lot of ingredients, and makes it look like it may be a pain in the rear-end to make, BUT it really is QUITE EASY TO MAKE--AND IT IS A DISH THE WHOLE FAMILY WILL ENJOY FROM THE YOUNGEST TO THE OLDEST. I've even have served it to people that don't even like Mexican or Tex-Mex food but still enjoyed this dish. Goes great to be served with Mexican rice (quick Mexican rice 2 cups minute rice, 2 cups boiling water, 1/4 cup frozen corn, 1/4 cup diced carrot, 1/8 cup diced onion, 1/4 cup salsa, 1 tsp. garlic, 1 tbsp. butter, 1 tsp. salt; once water is boiling mix in everything together turn off heat cover and let sit for 5 minutes and your done)and refried beans on the side. NOTE: I have a couple of friends that are VEGITARIAN and love this recipe the only thing they change is that they omit the chicken and use either 1 cube of imitation chicken bouillon or use 1 cube of vegetable bouillon.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 tablespoon green bell pepper, minced
- 1⁄8 cup red onion, finely chopped
- 1⁄2 cup mushroom, finely diced chunks
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced (about 1 clove)
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons butter
- 1 cup carrot, shredded (about 1 large carrot)
- 2⁄3 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 cups chicken breasts, cooked & shredded (grilled, boiled, rotisserie, your choice)
- 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed mushroom soup
- 2 green onions, sliced (divided in half)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon season salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Accent seasoning
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 1 (8 ounce) package colby-monterey jack cheese, shredded (set aside 1/2 cup)
- 1⁄2 cup sour cream (set aside half)
- 8 corn tortillas
- 2 cups lettuce, shredded
- 1 cup tomatoes, diced
- 1⁄4 cup guacamole
- In a large sauce pan (note the size of the top of the pan make sure it is larger then your corn tortillas; this will be helpful latter on.) add green bell pepper, red onion mushrooms, garlic and 1 1/2 teaspoons butter; Sauté for 2 to 4 minutes until onions are translucent on medium-low.
- Add shredded carrot to sautéed onion mix sauté for 2 minutes; stirring constantly.
- Add milk chicken breast, condensed mushroom soup, 1/2 of the green onions, season salt, white pepper, garlic powder, onion accent and chicken bouillon; mix well; let simmer on low for 20 minutes (it gives the sauce time to mix the flavors well).
- Add 1/4 cup of the sour cream; mix well and remove from heat.
- Preheat oven to 350éF.
- Now is the time to make a little assembly line (trust me it makes it quicken when you do this)
- Tortillas->Sauce->Cake Pan->Cheese.
- Once you have set this up this is how you do it:.
- Take 1 tortilla; dip into sauce flip onto other side of let each side sit for 5 seconds.
- Lay tortilla onto cake pan; sprinkle cheese; take a fork and fork out to fork fulls of chicken and vegetables out of sauce kind of drip off the sauce.
- Roll and make sure that the side where to tortilla closes is on the bottom.
- REPEAT: 7 more times.
- Once all the enchiladas are made and in the cake pan in a row. Pour remaining contents of the sauce pan onto of enchiladas. Next sprinkle the 1/2 cup cheese that was set aside on top of that.
- BAKE for 15 minutes (until edges of tortillas get crispy and golden brown).
- Sprinkle on top lettuce, then tomato, add dollops of the 1/4 cup remaining sour cream and guacamole on top of that.

Question and Answer
Question View
Login to Post--- Mar 24 1999 Go to category | |
Subject: | Mike Metheny |
Category: | Other Musicians |
From: | Laird from Kansas City (Kansas City, USA) |
Question: | Having started an earlier thread in "Travels" about your brother Mike Metheny, I've learned you have recorded sporadically with him in the past. Could you further explain your relationship with you brother as a musician. Also, do you have plans to do a project with him as well? Thank you. |
Pat's Answer: |
mike is probably my single most important influence - he was the one who by example showed me what it was to be a good musician, and in practice, he was the one who taught me how to read, count bars, get a sound out of an instrument as well as turning me onto to a whole world of music that i have my doubts i ever would have run across in lee's summit, mo. if it weren't for him. i also love playing with him, and do pretty regularly even now, even though it is usually just in our parents basement for jam sessions during the holidays. i did just play on one track on his new record that he is working on, and once again i was reminded how much we can phrase together. we need to do more... |

Let's say you go to their camp and your friends aren't there. You want to leave a note, but, alas, you have no paper, pencil or way of keeping the paper from flying away in the gusty, dusty wind.
Well, there are no worries if your friends were smart enough to use chalkboard paint to paint the perfect place to leave a note and not have it blow away!
We decided we'd repaint the dark brown stripes on our ancient motorhome with chalkboard paint. The old stripes were pretty deteriorated, but we just washed the area, let it dry and applied 3 coats of chalkboard paint (available at most home improvement stores and craft stores.) The paint drys really fast and then needs 4 hours to cure before using (though your paint's directions may vary.)
We'll put chalk in a bag attached to the door handle.
We'll also be able to leave notes for each other, the day's food menu, job assignments,etc. This is the mothership and our little group is mostly camping in tents.
You can always make your own chalkboard paint too and have it in any color you want

The evolution of English names in the U.K. can be traced to the various conquests and ruling power changes of its early history. The evolution of English names in America has been more influenced by the various influxes of immigrants from different parts of the world during different times in its history.

Deciphering The Fword
Text by Nasrin Modak | |||||||||
Published: Volume 18, Issue 11, November, 2010
Verve takes a fun and feisty journey into the food world with Mita Kapurs The F-Word. The book is a rather interesting account of a foodaholic Of course, the title will catch your attention but once you look at its cover, youll realise that there are other words beginning with the letter F. Think fiery, fresh, fragrant, famished, fun, flavours and certainly, family see, didnt it actually get you thinking. So, as you flip through its pages, dont be surprised if quirkiness follows you right through the chapter titles and the narrative. The author, an uninhibited foodie has no qualms about confessing her love for good, flavourful, sumptuous food, no matter where it is served, which is why the narrative comes straight from the stomach...errr...heart! The book is a lot to do with how cooking is all about following your instincts and is often infused with a lot of memories. She has blended her family members, friends and people she met (including a few distant relatives, some random cooks and a couple of food lovers) and their characteristics with places visited and local flavours and terms. Replete with funny anecdotes, a good dose of palatable recipes including the likes of cream of almond soup, murgh kesar malai and caramel soufflé break the monotony of the text. The author hasnt refrained from using Hindi and local terms in the text if at all its the only best way to describe a paratha or maybe the sheera at a local restaurant. Whats even more startling is her description of people and places! AUTHOR SPEAK MITA KAPUR On her book... On the Indian kitchen On the title On researching for this book On the narrative MITA KAPUR IS A FREELANCE JOURNALIST AND RUNS SIYAHI, A JAPIUR-BASED LITERARY AGENCY WHICH ALSO CONCEPTUALISES AND DIRECTS LITERARY EVENTS.
