3 month old always wants to sleep on tummy

Hi there
My 3 month old DS constantly wants to sleep on his tummy. He has been rolling over (both ways) for a couple of weeks now. I always wrap him for his sleeps and put him to bed on his back. Almost every
time I check on him during the day or night, he is soundly sleeping on his tummy.
What should I do? Do I leave him on his tummy or disturb him, re-wrap and re-settle on his back? I understand that he is rolling over quite early and I'm concerned about SIDS risk as he is still quite young.
Anyone else had this experience? What did you do?
Thanks in advance.

I thought the sids risk went down if they can roll both ways and easily move their head to be able to breath properly? Some one might be able to help?

Hi OP
Do you have a Baby Clinic / Early Childhood Clinic near you ??
Is there somewhere you can go and ask a MCN about this ??
Like the PP - I had read that if the baby can roll over in his sleep - as long as he can roll back - it's not a big issue.
If you are really worried about it - I would get a baby monitor thingy to reassure yourself.

Yes agree with Freddies mum, I have a monitor with movement sensors. It put my mind at ease so much. I know it works too because whenever I or dh for get to turn it off it's beeping like crazv within a minute.

If he can roll himself back onto his back I wouldn't worry too much. I think there are some products you can buy that stop them rolling over that were around when my oldest was a baby, but I am not 100% convinced as to their safety TBH. I never had a monitor at all, but maybe in this situation it might be worth it?
What about something like this:
Sleep wrap

DS has been a tummy sleeper since around 3 weeks. I HATED it, but it was the only way he would settle. Seeing as how your baby is rolling both ways, I wouldn't be too concerned TBH.
Posted 21 January 2013 - 10:53 AM
I looked at the positioners when ds started to roll. The sids website said they are a sids risk themselves. What jemstar posted looked relly good though.
Posted 21 January 2013 - 10:56 AM
Yeah, the sleep positioners that were around when my older kids were babies that rede almost like rolled up towels or wedges I was always wary of. I reckon the safe-t-sleep thing looks pretty good though. OP maybe post another thread and see if anyone has any comments about the product?

Posted 21 January 2013 - 12:02 PM
Thanks everyone for your helpful replies.
Jemstar, I'll look into the Safe-T-Sleep because, although he's really good at rolling from back to tummy, he isn't as consistently good with rolling the other way. I'll post another thread seeking people's comments on this product.

New York (AP) - Supermodel-turned-TV host Tyra Banks, facing the man accused of stalking her, testified Wednesday that she feared for her safety when she learned he had entered the New York City building where she tapes her show.
Banks, 35, said her staff would not let her leave the building on March 18, 2008, because defendant Brady Green, a stranger to her, had shown up.
"I was about to leave and a bunch of people from my staff were saying, like, 'No, you can't leave.' They said he was in the building," Banks testified.
Banks said that her staff had previously shown her Green's photograph, told her he had threatened one of her employees and was "somebody I should watch out for."
When police arrived, the former Sports Illustrated cover girl said, "I told them I was scared. I didn't know what to do. How do I live my life when I leave this building? I had never experienced anything like this before."
Police arrested Green, of Dublin, Ga., in a McDonald's near Banks' studio in Manhattan's Chelsea section.
Police said he told them that he had come from Los Angeles on a bus to see Banks and that "we had a thing together."
Green, 38, is on trial in Manhattan Criminal Court on misdemeanor charges of stalking, harassment and criminal trespass.
He is accused of repeatedly calling Banks' studio, in addition to showing up there, and sending her flowers and letters.
Green faces as many as 90 days in jail if convicted by Judge James Burke, who is hearing the case without a jury.
Calm and smiling frequently as she testified, Banks said security "has changed significantly" around her and her workplaces because of Green.
She said that her company has hired more security staff and that her studio audiences are vetted more thoroughly.
Banks said she is now followed everywhere by security guards, even when she runs and exercises outdoors. She said that even though she is a public person, "I don't live that kind of sheltered, protected life. I like to walk around."
Assistant District Attorney Sean McMahon asked Banks whether Green's behavior made her fearful.
"I don't fear for my life," the statuesque TV host said. "I fear for my safety. I fear for the safety of my staff and for my family. And I fear for the safety of people in my vicinity, who I'm with."
On cross-examination, Green's lawyer, Jeffrey Berman, portrayed his client as an overly zealous fan of talk shows in general and Banks in particular. He noted that Banks' Web site encouraged fans to write to her.
Berman's questions also stressed that Green never tried to contact Banks at her homes, never contacted her family and never asked her to marry him.
Green was expected to testify in his own defense later in the day.
Banks is executive producer and host of two popular TV shows, "America's Next Top Model" and "The Tyra Banks Show."
Supermodel-turned-TV host Tyra Banks, facing the man accused of stalking her, testified Wednesday that she feared for her safety when she learned he had entered the New York City building where she tapes her show.

First of all, thank you for your sweet comments about my "Rutty Rut Rut" post. Several of your comments had me in tears. I feel so much better now that I've shared what happened. I feel like you all "have my back." I definitely owe you all a Diet Coke after all that. After all, you know my deepest and darkest now, so we are bffs. Oh wait, I'm not drinking Diet Coke right now, hmmmm, maybe we could get together in a month or so when I decide to start drinking it again. It's a date.
We are making progress! I am super excited to be tackling our master bedroom! We painted over the charcoal wall and it is soooo much brighter! Check out the view below and I give you permission to look at my hub's sexy buns…
Since the wall color was so dark, we primed it with KILZ latex primer.
Then, my cute hubby installed molding boxes to add character and texture to the room. I'm excited because I'm learning how to do this myself! My hubby is a professional at molding, and I want to be able to do it without him. I'm a control freak like that.
Next on the to do list is to build the new headboard and continue installing the molding around the room. As always we have tons of projects happening at the same time, so stay tuned for our latest and greatest!

Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB) concluded its annual summer training programme, Iktaseb, which offers professional development opportunities to young UAE nationals aspiring to a career in Islamic banking and finance.
In total, 105 participants from colleges and universities across the UAE were honoured at DIB's Learning and Development Centre during a graduation ceremony attended by senior DIB executives including Mohammed Al Nahdi, Deputy CEO-Chief Operating Officer and Obaid Al Shamsi, Chief of Human Resources.
Iktaseb is a month long summer training programme which aims to identify, refine and educate young UAE nationals about the fundamentals of Sharia compliant banking. In addition to hands-on practical training in the bank's day-to-day operations, the programme focuses on communication skills, project management, presentation and other soft skills.
Speaking at the graduation ceremony, Obaid Al Shamsi said: "As the UAE's foremost Sharia compliant financial institution, DIB has a longstanding commitment to develop the next generation of Islamic banking professionals.

Reese Witherspoon Apparently Can Find a Bigger Purse To Hide Her Pregnancy
Last week, we posted pics of Reese Witherspoon wielding a giant purse to make sure the paparazzi doesn't take pictures of her stomach anymore on account of the baby in it. Well, here she is at LAX yesterday with an even bigger purse and a gigantic scarf conveniently covering no less than four layers of clothing because didn't you hear? Reese Witherspoon races dogsleds in LA now. On top of that, I also added pics of her leaving the doctors again, a day before flying out of town. Now, I know it seems like I'm obsessed with proving Reese Witherspoon is pregnant and sit around writing complex equations to figure out the due date on my walls, but trust me when I say those markers are water soluble. Shit comes right off. *resumes writing "aging * (x + dagger chin) = Jim Toth sperm^Ryan Phillippe knocked up that chick = March 6, 2012″*

- POZEN announced positive top-line results from two randomized, double-blind, multi-center, pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials of PA32540, a novel, coordinated-delivery tablet of immediate-release omeprazole (40 mg) and delayed release aspirin (325 mg). Detailed results will be submitted for journal publication and presentation at a future scientific meeting.
- These pivotal studies met their primary endpoint of significant reductions in the cumulative incidence of gastric ulcers following administration of PA32540 vs. 325 mg enteric-coated (EC) aspirin over six months.
- These pivotal studies also met their key secondary endpoints, and reported adverse events were consistent with the trial population and the known adverse event profile of aspirin and omeprazole.
- The Company has recently completed a Phase 1 study to assess the bioequivalence of PA32540 to enteric-coated aspirin 325 mg using acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) as the analyte as requested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and believes that the results demonstrate bioequivalence between the two dosage forms. The Company will attempt to obtain the FDA's concurrence before the New Drug Application (NDA) submission.
- As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 26, 2012, during a pre-submission meeting for the Company's NDA for PA32540, the FDA suggested that the Company also seek approval for a lower dose formulation of the product containing 81 mg of enteric-coated aspirin. As a result, the company is assessing the impact on the strategy and timing of the NDA submission for PA32540. Please refer to the Form 8-K for additional information.
- Partnership discussions for PA continue to progress. We believe that we remain on track regarding our goal to secure a partnership by year-end 2012 and have had preliminary discussions with some potential partners about the recent request to make available a lower strength of PA32540.
- Q1 2012 net sales of VIMOVO™ (naproxen / esomeprazole magnesium) delayed-release tablets were $15.9 million, generating a royalty of $1.3 million. VIMOVO has now been approved in 50 countries and launched in 28 countries.

TORONTO/LONDON (Reuters) - First Quantum Minerals Ltd (FM.TO) said on Friday it had won enough shareholder support to take over Inmet Mining Corp IMN.TO, winning a C$5.1 billion hostile battle for control of one of the world's largest untapped copper deposits.
The deal - the latest in an industry that has concentrated to leave ever fewer pure copper miners behind - creates one of the world's biggest producers of the red metal.
It also transforms First Quantum, which until now has made more than 80 percent of its profit in Zambia.
First Quantum, for its part, faces arguably its toughest test to date in Inmet's $6.2 billion Cobre Panama project, the jewel in the miner's crown.
Cobre Panama is one of the biggest untapped copper deposits in the world, but also one of the most expensive - in an untested country with little mining history.
"They've certainly shown themselves to be very efficient and effective project managers in the past, successfully executing on what much larger firms have struggled with," said Daniel Rohr, a mining analyst at Morningstar.
First Quantum, which cut its teeth in Zambia as the country re-privatized its mines in the 1990s, is betting its hands-on approach to construction, procurement and supervision will help slash costs at Cobre Panama while keeping to deadlines.
"There will be a hiatus of three to six months, whatever it takes to do a comprehensive reassessment and renegotiations where required. But our build time will be much shorter," First Quantum President Clive Newall told Reuters.
"We have a two-year construction phase (at) our projects, so we will be able to stick pretty closely to Inmet's schedule, which was for commissioning at the end of 2016 or the beginning of 2017."
Newall dismissed concerns that Inmet's existing contracts might have locked in high costs. But he said it would be "several months" before the group could publish specific targets and its own plan for the mine, where challenges include heavy tropical rainfall.
The deal is the latest in a copper industry where rising costs and a dearth of new deposits have prompted consolidation, leaving only a handful of mid-sized base metals producers such as HudBay Minerals Inc (HBM.TO) and Lundin Mining Corp (LUN.TO).
Poland's KGHM KGH.WA sealed a C$3 billion takeover of Quadra FNX in 2012, while Barrick Gold Corp's (ABX.TO) C$7.3 billion deal to acquire Equinox Minerals in 2011 took yet another mid-sized base metal company off the market.
With Cobre Panama and its own development projects coming on stream over the next five years, First Quantum now expects to be producing some 1.3 million tonnes of copper annually by 2018, making it one of the top five producers in the world.
Newall said that while First Quantum has no plans to trim its own portfolio, more deals were not off the cards, as major mining companies streamline portfolios and put dozens of assets up for sale, including copper deposits.
"We have a pretty full pipeline for the next few years, but that doesn't mean we'll stop looking," he said. "There is going to be a period, over the next year to 18 months, where there are going to be some opportunities. It is just that we will be setting the bar ever higher."
First Quantum said in Friday's statement that a total of 60.1 million Inmet shares, representing about 85.5 percent of outstanding shares, had been tendered in favor of its offer.
The offer has been extended to 5 p.m. EDT on April 1. If able to secure 90 percent of the shares, First Quantum will proceed with a compulsory acquisition.
Toronto-based Inmet, which rejected First Quantum's advances for months, recommended on Friday that shareholders tender their shares to the offer. The miner also announced the resignation of its entire board and named four First Quantum officers to the new board.
Jefferies International, Goldman Sachs and RBC Capital Markets acted as financial advisers for First Quantum on the deal, while Fasken Martineau DuMoulin acted as legal counsel.
First Quantum's shares closed down 2.3 percent at C$20.12, while Inmet's shares closed 1.5 percent lower at C$69.11 on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

BRADENTON, Fla. — The Pirates had Jose Tabata, Neil Walker and Andrew McCutchen, in that order, atop their lineup today against the Rays. But manager Clint Hurdle said it's only one possible lineup combo this season.
"It's one of many," Hurdle said. "It's the one we threw out there today. We all pretty much understand what Andrew can do at the top of the lineup. We need to look at what we can do to stretch out lineup, to become more diverse and dynamic. We need to score more runs than we did last year. I do believe he has the skill to hit third. We'll see how it plays out."
»»» The third inning ended when righty Brad Lincoln picked Sean Rodriguez off second base. Lincoln made a perfect strike to shortstop Ronny Cedeno, who tagged Rodriguez.
"It was the right timing," Lincoln said. "It's one of those plays where, you see him go and then basically it's a timing play. It's not called or set up. It just happens."
»»» Jose Tabata had a run-scoring single and Garrett Atkins hit an RBI double. The Pirates' other three runs scored on grounders. … In the seventh, Robinson Chirinos put the Rays ahead 5-2 with a two-out, three-run double off Daniel McCutchen. … Lefty Justin Thomas gave up four unearned runs in the eighth after a two-out fielding error by third baseman Josh Fields.


text: However, while Brown says he has "a lot of respect for Jonathan," he believes the Chrysler parallel doesn't quite work. Chrysler, "came up with new cars that were quite popular, and that changed the reputation of the company more than anything else," Brown says. However, "the problem in the banking business today is the retail banking business sucks." Expenses are high, but low interest rates and new legislation keep revenues down, Brown says. "Bank of America as well as all banks want to change their retail banking model, but consumers feel that they've gotten banking services for free for years." As a result, its very difficult to raise prices "without taking a lot of grief." The pricing problem is particularly acute for Bank of America, Brown says. He says that U.S. Bancorp ( USB) charges customers 50 cents to take a photograph of a check in order to deposit it via smartphone. "If B of A tried something like that, if they were the first, there'd be all sorts of nasty headlines," Brown says. "Part of it is they brought it on themselves and a smaller part is they happen to be the one that gets picked on the most." Brown, who also owns Citigroup ( C) shares, said he is pleased with recent cost-cutting moves by that institution. Still, while Citi has identified more than $1 billion in annual savings from its recent 11,000 layoffs, that pales in comparison with the $18 billion at Bank of America, he contends. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York.

Western Sydney Wanderers are fearless in Guangzhou as midfielder Mateo Poljak begins the mind games by heaping the pressure on the wounded Evergrande before the second leg of their quarter-final.
Despite feeling the fatigue of travel, the Wanderers' workhorse has defiantly declared his team has nothing to fear coming up against the reigning Asian champions who are hell-bent on seeking revenge for a bitter defeat in Parramatta last week.
Western Sydney need a draw or better to complete the job against the wealthiest club in the continent and can even progress with a defeat by a margin of one goal in which they score.
Poljak is confident of progressing and says their bruising victory last week has proved they're more than capable of repeating the act in front of 58,000 passionate Chinese supporters.
"I'm sure they will do everything to win because they are the reigning champions but the pressure is on them," Poljak says. "They're the champions and they have a big budget and they expected to go through. But, we have nothing to fear if we stick to our game plan and they will have trouble. We showed we can out run them and we showed we are tactically better than them."
The Wanderers will receive a frosty reception from the home fans who have already taken to social media to express their distaste towards the club after the spiteful 1-0 first-leg victory. Allegations of diving flooded social media sites while the club has been warned it will not be welcomed in the stadium.
The players have not experienced anything out of the ordinary since their arrival. The playing staff has ignored the hype during the build-up to the match and Poljak says they haven't approached the match any different during training either.
"We've been doing nothing special," he says. "We've learned from the first game so it's just been a recovery for us. It's going to be a hard game."
The 24-year-old says Guangzhou Evergrande coach Marcello Lippi can have no complaints with the one-match ban he received for storming on to the field of play and handling an opposition player. The Italian coach will watch the second-leg of the quarter final from the stands after receiving a touch-line ban from the Asian Football Confederation for his wild on-field invasion following a second red card shown to Evergrande.
Lippi escaped punishment from the referee at the time but was later banned by the AFC and may also receive further sanctions for grabbing hold of Wanderers' playmaker Vitor Saba in an on-field melee that may lead to a separate disciplinary investigation.
Poljak says he has never been involved in a game where a coach has run on to the field of play and grabbed an opponent and believes Lippi is lucky the ban isn't more severe. "I've heard there's going to be more investigation so I think the one-match ban, he needs to be happy about that," he says.

Wilkinsburg man killed in Monroeville crash
It's unclear why a Wilkinsburg man drove across the center line and crashed into an oncoming vehicle, killing himself and injuring five others, Allegheny County Police said Friday.
Francis Spearman, 74, lost control of his vehicle and crashed head-on into another just before 8 p.m. Thursday at Saunders Station and Abers Creek roads in Monroeville, according to the Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office. He died at UPMC Mercy, Uptown.
Two passengers in his vehicle were hurt, as was the driver and two of his passengers in the other vehicle, Lt. Andrew Schurman said. None of the injuries were serious, he said.
Police are investigating why Spearman crossed the center line as he headed eastbound on Saunders, Schurman said.

Porthleven Lifeboat Day has been cancelled as a result of the forecast weather conditions.
The Met Office has issued a yellow weather warning as a result of the tail end of Hurricane Bertha hitting our shores.
Organisers of the annual RNLI fundraising event took the decision due to the strong winds, which could have caused health and safety issues.
The Environment Agency issued a statement this morning, warning that widespread heavy rain over the course of today could cause localised surface water flooding in some parts of the south west.
Paul Sadler, for the Environment Agency, said: "On Sunday and Monday a combination of high spring tides and strong westerly winds bring a risk of large waves and spray and possible flooding to the south west coast of England.
"We advise people to keep themselves informed by checking flood warnings on the Environment Agency website and listening to local radio. If you're travelling to or from holiday then check your flood risk before setting off and don't drive through flood waters.
"If you're by the coast then stay safe, keep clear of promenades and don't be tempted to put yourself at risk.

OK, you have blogging and you're adding content on various social bookmarketing sites but still are not getting the results you expected. Well, you shouldn't expect it.
Social bookmarketing traffic isn't as targeted as you would like, and it is unlikely that the viewer will stay on your site to make the effort truly worthwhile. What should you do - don't worry about it.
Traffic that really wants to hear what you have to say will hang around and probably will not only read your content but also tweet it, comment on it and share it with others. This is called guest blogging.
Guest blogging is a popular form of content syndication used by many superstar bloggers to drive high-quality traffic to their website. It is the art of writing a great piece of content for a website other than your own.
The key to successful guest blogging is to get your content posted on recognized and popular authority blogs within your niche. Let me give you five reasons why you'll want to do guest blogging to help you get a first-page ranking on Google.
1. Select and write for a high-quality, high-traffic site.
If you're able to get your content posted on a popular blog within your niche that has thousands of visitors a day, you will be able to tap into their Internet traffic and expose your blog to those who read your article.
Popular authority blogs within your niche are a fantastic free resource for high quality, targeted traffic. They've already built up the targeted traffic you want, and by posting a guest article on their site, you will be directing some of that traffic your way.
Add a small 4- to 5-line bio at the bottom of your guest post with a link pointing back to your blog and then let the traffic arrive. As an example, I manage a travel-related business, so I would search for popular travel-related sites where I can add content.
In this case, I found that Fodor's Travel has a forum, and I can post an article. Also, I can add content to the popular Trip Advisor.
2. Creates valuable backlinks.
Guest blogging has the added benefit of creating backlinks that are valuable. Google loves backlinks, especially if it comes from another well-known, popular website.
The popular kid always wins when it comes to Internet marketing. If you get in with the popular crowd and they link back to your website, Google will think you're popular, too, and reward you with a page-one ranking!
3. Gain worldwide exposure.
Through guest blogging, you can expand your marketplace and reach people who wish to visit Savannah and use your service or product.
Guest blogging exposes you to a new source of traffic that has more than likely never heard of you. We have a friend in Ireland who owns a small bed and breakfast, and she has been guest blogging for some time and has seen bookings from places she had not reached prior to her writing about her inn and her location.
If you are a professional, (an attorney or doctor, for example) guest blogging helps establish you as an expert and build name recognition or brand awareness through greater exposure to a much larger audience.
4. Dramatically increase your e-mail subscriber list.
An added benefit of the new influx of viewers who are visiting popular niche sites will be to increase the opportunity to gain additional subscribers. A larger e-mail list leads to more retweets (Twitter), people joining your Facebook page and more people potentially sharing your content.
All of this will increase your exposure and traffic.
5. Make more money.
Why not? If you are reaching a larger audience and you are providing world-class content, you should see a dramatic increase of traffic to your website and purchase of your products or services.
Guest blogging is simple and probably the quickest and most effective way to build name or brand recognition. It will most certainly increase exposure, drive highly targeted traffic to your site, grow your subscriber list and make more money for you.
Just take the time and do it.

Four Man-Hour Retrofit of Meritor Tire Inflation System™ by PSI Demonstrated at Annual Fleet Technology Event
TROY, Mich. (Oct. 21, 2011) – Meritor, Inc. (NYSE:MTOR) and Pressure Systems International (PSI) demonstrated a four man-hour retrofit of the Meritor Tire Inflation System™ (MTIS) by PSI during their Annual Fleet Technology Event.
Fleets often spec new trailers with MTIS by PSI when they learn how it can lower their operating costs by improving fuel economy, reducing tire wear and cutting maintenance costs. Existing trailers can be outfitted with MTIS by fleet maintenance personnel or an external source, such as Velociti, Inc., which partners with Meritor and PSI to retrofit the system on trailers operating in North America. As fleet owners begin to better understand the cost benefits associated with using MTIS, they are retrofitting their fleets with this product. Currently, Werner Enterprises, a transportation and logistics company headquartered in Omaha, Neb., is retrofitting MTIS on more than 24,000 trailers.
The MTIS retrofit began at 7:30 a.m. CT on a tandem flatbed trailer parked at the PSI facility. Working alone, Kevin Allen, technician, Velociti, completed the task by 11:30 a.m. CT as the PSI plant tour concluded.
"We explain to fleets that MTIS can be easily retrofitted to existing trailers in less than four man hours, typically by two men working two hours each," said Frank Sonzala, executive vice president, PSI. "Based on our 18 years of experience, we predicted the trailer could be completely outfitted with MTIS within the four-hour time frame. No other system can be installed as fast and as easily."
MTIS by PSI, the market leader in automatic tire inflation systems, keeps tires properly inflated improving tire maintenance management, increasing trailer up-time and bottom line Return On Investment. MTIS by PSI is a simple design which can be installed on any type of trailer including: van, liquid tank, logger, flat bed, chassis, livestock, platform, drop frame, dump, deep drop, doubles, dry bulk, reefer, auto transporter and military.
The system adds life to tires, increases fuel efficiency, improves safety, maximizes recap potential, and keeps trailers on the road, ultimately delivering loads on time. It is a truly automatic system with constant air pressure available when needed. The patented rotary union is the only moving part in the entire system, significantly reducing maintenance, and the patented ThermALERT™ option notifies drivers of excessive wheel end heat. MTIS with ThermALERT accounts for nearly half of PSI's production.

Hacker and iOS expert pod2g published some very interesting pieces of information on his personal blog. As expected, his post has a lot to do with jailbreaking, and in particular, it sheds light on a potential untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1.1 – the platform's most up-to-date version right now.
To start, an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1.x is likely to be released in a couple of weeks. Demand for it appears to be pretty high since most users are not willing to wait until iOS 6.0 is unveiled and subsequently jailbroken. With the exception of the third generation Apple TV, the upcoming untethered jailbreak will be "compatible with any device running iOS 5.1.1", so yay to that! And in case you are wondering what is taking so long for the jailbreak to be released even though the hack has already been demonstrated on the new iPad, it is just that there are 16 different iOS devices to be tested, and testing takes time.
So there you go, folks: if you want to have a jailbroken iPhone or iPad and the most recent iOS version, just be a bit more patient. We will let you know as soon as the untethered iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak is released.

The Nookie Know-It-All: Morning After Etiquette
Whenever I sleep over at a new guy's place, I am never sure what to do/how to act in the morning. Am I supposed to leave? Am I supposed to stay and pretend to be sleeping? Also, how do I hint to a guy who has slept over that it's time for him to leave? — Awkward In The Mornin', Dallas, TX
Isn't it weird how awkward conversation over eggs seems way scarier than letting some dude put his penis in you? It's because the morning-after usually signifies what direction (if any) this new relationship will take. That's a lot of pressure before 9 AM! Your safest bet is to take the guys' cue when you wake up. If Mr. X is already dressed and halfway out the door when you're just starting to rub the sleep out of your eyes, than you know it's time to say goodbye. If you wake up to Mr. Y offering you a pair of his boxers and bunny slippers, than make yourself at home and stay awhile.
If you're at tu casa, and aren't quite ready to make last night's guy breakfast in bed, then take a play from Mr. X and say you've got plans. Don't push him out the door as soon as you put your contacts in, but casually tell him that you're meeting a friend for brunch or have to go workout. Once he realizes your plans don't include him, he should take the bait (or, as I like to call it…the bacon).
Got a burning question for our amazingly wise Nookie Know-It-All? Email it to [email protected] Don't worry, we'll keep your deets between us.

Two German newspapers said there were growing doubts within the European Central Bank (ECB) about its continued participation in the so-called "troika" made up of the European Union, IMF and the ECB.
The ECB in Frankfurt could not be immediately reached for comment on the advance excerpts of articles to appear on Tuesday in the two German newspapers, Die Welt and Sueddeutsche Zeitung.
Asked about the reports, Olli Rehn, the EU Economic and Monetary Affairs commissioner, told journalists in Brussels the EU was working closely together with the ECB and IMF.
"I do not have any clue what you're talking about and we work very constructively with (ECB) president (Mario) Draghi and the other troika partners," Rehn said.
The conservative Die Welt and liberal Sueddeutsche Zeitung said some ECB members were concerned that participation in euro zone rescue efforts could create a conflict of interest for the ECB and compromise its independence.
"The level of discomfort has reached such a level that there are considerations among some important members of the ECB to leave the troika entirely," Die Welt reported, citing a financial source it did not identify.
It quoted a government source in Berlin as saying there were two reasons for the concerns. It had become quite normal for the ECB to take part in rescue efforts for struggling euro zone countries.
Secondly, Die Welt said, the ECB's political influence was growing. Together with the IMF and the EU, it was imposing gigantic adjustment and reform programmes on ECB nations.
Die Welt said not everyone in the ECB had the same concerns.
The Sueddeutsche Zeitung quoted one ECB source as saying: "The problem is there. But we only have an advisory role in the troika and not a deciding role. The programmes are signed by the Commission and the IMF."

The reverse image, designed by Eduard Kurghinyan, proudly boasts a dove in flight with an olive branch in its beak and Noah's Ark floating on the floodwaters in front of Mount Ararat with the rising sun in the background. This design was chosen because of Armenia's connection to Mount Ararat and its connection to the biblical tale of Noah's Ark. As told in the Book of Genesis, following the great flood, Noah's Ark landed at the peak of Mount Ararat. Although it is widely believed by scholars and scientists alike that this mountain is not the actual resting place of the great ark, the significance of Mount Ararat to the Armenian people has been memorialized on this coin.
The Armenian Silver Noah's Ark bullion coin is not produced in the eastern European country, but rather in Germany by Leipziger Edelmetallverarbeitungs GmbH, an affiliate of the private mint Geiger Edelmetalle. The mint, one of the most modern in the world, has more than 1,000 years of experience in mining and processing Silver. Geiger Edelmetalle was founded in 1218 in Leipzig, by merchants who established the oldest Silver trade in Germany.

I adore silver with every fiber of my being. That being said, I'm so tired of buying ounces and wanted something cute and I love the story of Noah's Arc. Thinking about it, most stackers could be compared to Noah, eveyone called him crazy, said things were fine then next thing you know BAM!, flood happens and the guy who was prepared was OK. PLUS- these are just soo cute, I call them baby ounces.

MARKET CLOSE: NZ shares rise on Steel & Tube FY earnings; Xero drops
By Suze Metherell
Aug. 15 (BusinessDesk) - New Zealand shares rose, led by Steel & Tube Holdings after it boosted annual profit 15 percent. Xero plunged to a 10-month low as investors weighed its valuation against its growth, while ERoad debuted at a premium on the NZX.
The NZX 50 Index rose 15.67 points, or 0.3 percent, to 5078.081. Within the index, 28 stocks rose, 10 fell and 12 were unchanged. Turnover was $77.4 million.
Local earning season is well underway, with nine benchmark index consitutents reporting earnings this week. Investors have been looking to justify the 7.2 percent gain the NZX 50 has made this year, and a reason to keep their investment in equities as the New Zealand economy picks up pace and the Reserve Bank raises interest rates, making other investments potentially more attractive.
"It's early stages but we're probably seeing confirmation that the companies that have reported so far have reported within cooee or have maintained their dividend, which is very important for investors in the current climate," said Peter McIntyre, an investment adviser at Craigs Investment Partners. "We're yet to see the real barometers of the economy, the likes of Freightways and Mainfreight, turn up and give their evidence of what's happening but at this early stage it seems quite promising."
Steel & Tube, which manufacturers steel building products, advanced 4.8 percent to $3.04 after it lifted annual profit 15 percent to $17.9 million. Sales were boosted from its $28.1 million Tata Steel (Australasia) acquisition in April, the local division of the Indian manufacturer now renamed S&T Stainless, increasing its market share of stainless, engineering steel and floor decking products in New Zealand.
"Steel & Tube really confirmed today that their business is still operating well and their recent acquisition of the stainless operation has proved to be beneficial," McIntyre said."Based on where their earnings are they definitely deserve to be trading above $3 and that's what we've seen."
Nuplex Industries, which twice lowered its earnings guidance in the past year, rose 3.4 percent to $3.06, after it posted annual profit growth of 18 percent to $52.4 million yesterday, exceeding market expectations. The chemicals manufacturer fattened its margin on coating resins in Asia and Europe.
Xero was the worst performer on the bourse after it dropped 6.2 percent to a 10-month low of $20.17 and has shed some 44 percent over the past nine months after surging more than 300 percent last year.
"Several analysts have captured the essence of what's been going on over a period of time here with technology stocks broadly globally having peaked in March this year," Andrew Bascand, managing director for Harbour Asset Management said. "Then investors just started to asking questions regarding the business models of a number of tech stocks and how much cash they've got on their balance sheets and what their timeline is to becoming profitable and therefore the valuation of these stocks."
Guinness Peat Group dropped 4.8 percent to a 10-month low of 59 cents and has declined some 16 percent since announcing on Wednesday it is still grappling with its UK pension liability, while its sole investment, the Coats threadmaker unit, reported a near trebling of first-half profit.
SkyCity Entertainment Group rose 1.9 percent to $3.79. Fletcher Building advanced 0.6 percent to $9.03. Spark New Zealand, formerly known as Telecom Corp, climbed 1.1 percent to $2.88.
Outside the benchmark index, ERoad jumped 13 percent to $3.40 in its NZX debut from its offer price $3, as a cautious market looked for tech-exposure from companies with solid track records.
The logistics and fleet management business is the ninth company to list on the bourse this year, and follows cinema software and analytics firm Vista International Group's debut on Monday. Vista was unchanged at $2.60, some 11 percent above its $2.35 listing price. The NZX has experienced a flurry of tech-based listings, which has been a mixed bag for investors, and ERoad's gain tips the balance in favour of recently listed stocks above their initial public offer price.
"Although it might be considered in the tech side of things, it's a business that fundamentally is relatively easy to understand as a lay person," said James Smalley, director at Hamilton Hindin Greene. "The market is taking a bit of a cautious approach. Both these new listings, the Vista and ERoad, already established pretty good track records before they then came to the market - they're still at the growth stage, but they have pretty solid market share and existing, successful business models."
Turners Group NZ, which this month changed its name from Turners Auctions, rose 1.6 percent to $3.10, after it lifted first-half profit 5.9 percent to $2.27 million as a strong New Zealand dollar lowered the cost of imported cars, helping attract customers with cheaper prices. The company said it anticipates good trading conditions for the rest of the year.
Michael Hill International fell 2.3 percent to $1.27, after the jewelery chain that bears the name of its founder posted a 22 percent drop in annual profit to A$25 million as its profit margin declined and it paid a settlement to the Australian Tax Office.

(Corrects paragraph 7 to say Laird supplied antennae, not anti-heat devices, for the London Underground)
March 1 (Reuters) - Laird Plc, whose products include electronic components used in Apple Inc's iPhones and iPads, said it expected 2013 revenue to be boosted by the product launches of three or four of its customers despite a relatively flat start to the year.
Though the launch dates are not yet official, industry watchers expect iPhone 5S and iPad Mini to hit stores around the third quarter, right after Samsung Electronics Co Ltd's Galaxy Note 8.0 and Galaxy Fonblet.
"We tend to get a big kick every time a customer launches a new product and we have got a number of customer product launches timed around the mid year," Chief Executive David Lockwood told Reuters.
Apple, which contributed 19 percent to Laird's overall revenue in 2012, is the company's largest client in its smart-phone business, which also includes Samsung.
In the final quarter of 2012, when the iPhone 5 had entered all markets, Wall Street estimated Apple sold between 47.5 million and 53 million iPhones, up considerably from the 26.9 million sold in the previous quarter.
Laird, which makes electromagnetic shielding and heat control components for wireless devices, reported a 17 percent rise in full-year underlying pretax profit to 60.7 million pounds, propped up by acquisitions and growing demand in the smart-device market.
The company, which also makes smart chips for GPS and radio systems in cars, supplied antennae for the wireless system Virgin Media Inc installed in the London Underground in time for the 2012 London Olympics.
Laird's shares were marginally up at 248.6 pence on the London Stock Exchange at 0955 GMT on Friday. ($1 = 0.6588 British pounds) (Reporting By Richa Naidu; Editing by Robin Paxton and Don Sebastian)

BROMSGROVE District Council is extending the maximum capacity of its chamber for the crucial meeting on the Whitford Road development.
The application for outline planning proposal for 490 homes on the land has gained significant interest with the Whitford Vale Voice group opposing them.
Due to an expected large number of people attending on Monday night, (April 28), the authority has taken steps to ensure the legal capacity of the room is met.
With temporary internal walls removed the room seats 160 people, 125 in the public gallery.
The meeting of the council's planning committee starts at 6pm, with the Whitford Road application being heard first.
Consideration of the rest of the items of the agenda will not begin until, at the earliest, 7.30pm to give time for the Whitford application to be discussed.
The authority stress seats will only be available on a first-come-first-served basis, and if people turn up after the legally allowed number of people is reached, they will not be allowed in.
A spokesman for the authority added: " Members of the public are asked to understand the restrictions that are placed on the council but be assured officers are doing all they can to maximise the chance to hear the Committee's discussion."

The formula seems simple enough: take two well-heeled Hollywood types, buy a vineyard in the south of France and, voilà, a wine star is born. At least that was the plan.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt threw their hats into the ring with a rosé, the 2012 Chateau Miraval Côtes de Provence. They follow in the footsteps of a long line of actors and athletes, rock stars and race car drivers to try their hands in the vineyard. The first 6,000 bottles sold out hours after going on sale. And the wine was still tough to get even after Whole Foods and others started carrying it.
Now that the hype has died down, Miraval is much easier to get. But is it worth it? I paid $24 for it at a discount wine store here in New York, where it was the second most expensive rosé of 37 I counted on the shelves.
Miraval comes in an unusual bottle bearing a small, medallion-like label, both aimed at making the wine stand out, which it did lined up in the middle of a long row of rosés from all over the world.
The Miraval estate is cultivated organically, and the rosé is a blend of grapes – the red cinsault, grenache and syrah and the white rolle, also known as vermentino. I bought the wine along with two other rosés from the south of France with the aim of tasting them in a blind comparison.
One was a $13 wine from Bordeaux, the other a $9 rosé from the Costières de Nimes, also in southern France. I marked the bottles and the bottoms of three glasses with identifying numbers, poured the wines, and then mixed up the glasses so I wouldn't know which wine I tasted.
The results? I quickly eliminated what turned out to be the rosé from Bordeaux because it had a strange and unpleasant aroma, indicating the wine was corked.
Related: Are celebrity wines worth the price?
Of the other two, I preferred Chateau de Campuget's 2012 Costières de Nimes, a grenache-syrah blend and, yes, the $9 wine. I found it brighter and more refreshing than the Jolie-Pitt wine and l liked its more fruity character with notes of cherry and orange. It may not have been the most exciting rosé I've tasted this summer but it was crisp and easy to drink -- exactly what I want in a rosé. It was also the better of the two wines with our roasted herbed chicken dinner.
The Miraval is a more nuanced wine with a richer mouth feel and a longer finish. The fruit is muted -- too much so, with barely a hint of cherry, along with an herb note and a good deal of vanilla creaminess. It's more of a wine to swirl around and to contemplate, which, for me, misses the point of rosés.
And yet, if it's a celebrity vintage you desire and are willing to pay a price for fame in a bottle, Miraval might be for you. At least you'll get to say you had dinner, so to speak, with Brad and Angelina. I'll go back to the many excellent, affordable rosés I've reviewed recently, which you can read about here and here and here.

L'ANZA Healing Moisture Tamanu Cream Conditioner Reviews
Great for dry, winter hair!I use this in the winter (which is cold in Europe, so the cold weather makes the hair dry). It´s definitely great for dry hair, it moistures perfectly- but I wouldn't recommend this for anyone who doesn´t have very dry hair. If I use this in the summertime when my hair isn't as dry it tends to make my hair greasy. But great for dry hair! — 6 years agoqueenofthegreen | 49 reviews

Oops, He Did It Again: Perez Hilton Tweets Photo #2 Of Miley Cyrus's Crotch
A new week, a new Miley Cyrus crotch photo: that's the world of Perez Hilton! The gossip blogger tweeted a photo of Miley performing yesterday at the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto where a few inches of her inner thigh can be seen through above the crotch-fabric on her leotard. The photo isn't scandalous in the least bit and you'll feel dumb wasting five seconds of your life to look at it.
SHE HAS A VAGINA, PEREZ. Seriously, get over it!

Mullion School set the standard at this year's Cornwall School Games gig rowing event.
Held in Mylor Harbour, Mullion fielded strong teams that surpassed the skill of rival competitors.
Mullion has always excelled in the traditional Cornish sport of gig rowing, with a large amount of pupils training and competing throughout the summer months in local clubs.
The event was part of the third annual Cornwall School Games and the school has competed and won medals each year for gig rowing and indoor rowing.
The teams were selected by the experienced coaches, who have been thanked by the school for bringing together four teams to represent the school.
Coxwains from both Cadgwith and Coverack gig clubs were involved in the process of choosing the crews, taking into account race experience, technical prowess and flexibility in the boat.
As a result of their work, Mullion School dominated the competition this year, winning all four age groups.
On the day the club coxes successfully steered the teams through the heats and into the finals to win the under 16 open, under 16 girls, under 14 open and under 14 girls events. The children were left delighted, the school staff proud and the club coaches rewarded.

NEW PORT RICHEY — This time last year, Isaiah Mason was preparing for the ride of his life. The ride still hasn't ended.
Along with the rest of his Springstead High School basketball teammates, Mason was about to make school history. The Eagles went on a run toward the Class 4A state finals. It was a Cinderella story unlike any this area had ever seen.
Undefeated from the start of the campaign in November 2008 until the state final against Cocoa on March 7, Mason, along with Dante Valentine and Domnique Roberson, sparked the only title appearance in Hernando County prep boys basketball history. The team lost in the state championship game, finishing 31-1 with a runner-up trophy.
After high school, Mason set his sights on where he would play college ball. While his grades, something that had hindered him early in his prep career, weighed down his search for a four-year scholarship, it might have been a blessing in disguise when Pasco-Hernando Community College coach Bobby Bowman came knocking.
Bowman has led the Conquistador program for 19 seasons, and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. From a stint as a professional coach in the Continental Basketball Association — the same place legendary NBA coach Phil Jackson got his start — to coaching the U.S. Junior Olympic Team, he has given Mason plenty of guidance.
"(Bowman) doesn't play around," Mason said, "He's more about discipline than (former Springstead coach Pat) Kelly was."
Mason acknowledges he didn't know much about the PHCC program's history or the players who wore the Conquistador uniform through the years. Among those are former Penn State standout and All-Big Ten guard Stanley Pringle and former Southern Indiana standout Chris Thompson, the program's all-time leader in points and rebounds.
Bowman has made no secret that he believes Mason can be the next in this line of players to make the leap from junior college success to Division I stardom.
"I had some struggles early, but mostly it's been a pretty good transition," Mason said. "Just like everybody else that comes here, I'm looking to play at the next level."
His play so far as a freshman has opened a lot of eyes. He has cracked the starting lineup with his solid play as a small forward. Concerns over his defense and lack of physicality have been overshadowed by his overwhelming athleticism and scoring ability.
As the regular season drew to a close, the Conquistadors had a crucial game against first-place Hillsborough Community College at home. PHCC needed a victory to stay in the hunt for the Suncoast Conference championship. Mason delivered.
Mason started strong, , scoring 11 points in the first half and 16 for the game. He stole two balls that spurred fast breaks, finishing with two huge momentum-shifting dunks for the 15-12 Conquistadors.
PHCC won the game, 84-81.
Mason is averaging 14.8 points per game, the second-leading scorer on the team behind sophomore center Brandon Joiner. He is also third on the team in rebounds (4.7), third in assists (1.1) and leads in blocks (22). He is a favorite to be named to the all-Suncoast Conference team after the season.
He knows that in the offseason his main priority has to be hitting the weights and adding extra muscle to his 6-foot-5 frame. At only 178 pounds, he will need the extra weight to endure physical play as a forward at the next level. That's where assistant Rob Oppedisano comes in.
"Isaiah's really a tweener right now," Bowman said. "Coach Oppedisano is the best there is when it comes to weight training. He'll work with Isaiah on putting on some more muscle."
One thing is for sure. Mason has sent a strong message in his first season at the community college level: He won't shy away from hard work, and he does belong.
"Kids who succeed at (the) junior college (level) do so because of work ethic," Bowman said. "Isaiah is a perfect example of that."

Since forming in February 2013, Point Inaudible have gone from strength to strength in a very short time. Constant touring and high energy stage shows have already secured them Three singles to be released via Animal Farm Records. Not to be missed.
-- Link to Bandcamp --
Beretta Suicide are a fearsome three piece from Leeds on a mission to be the best rock n roll band in the UK. Joey K (Lead vocals / Bass), Joe Clements (Guitar) and Pert (Drums) met in 2011 following an online ad posted by Pert looking for band members "sick of the safe and sterile music scene". The three bonded over their love of tattoos and low slung guitars knowing straight away they'd found their gang, their brotherhood.
-- Link to their Soundcloud --
The Manic Shine are a rock band unlike any you will ever have heard. With a vast sound that links progressive alt/rock with atmospheric synth noise they combine incredible guitar solos, time signature changes and a heart-pounding groove to deliver an inebriating wall of metamorphic art rock. These guys have been touring all over the UK for the past 2 years and are really grabbing everyones attention in the live scene DO NOT MISS THESE GUYS!!

I don't know what to think of the wine on tap Dave Holter plans to install at Taps Baltimore.
I've talked to a few people about the idea -- wine dispensed through taps with a nitrogen-powered system -- and they're split on it.
Some people think it would be cool. Others say they'll never order wine on tap because it sounds cheap and dirty.
Not so, says Patrick Russell, owner of Kooper's Tavern and Slainte in Fells Point. ...
He tried it in California and said it's an awesome idea.
Bars that serve wine by the glass sometimes keep pouring from the same bottle for days at a time, he said.
That means when you get to the bottom of the bottle, the wine tastes horrible and looks like sludge.
With wine on tap, it's never a problem, because it's always kept fresh -- no oxygen hits the wine. Only nitrogen.
And, you can get an exact pour of one ounce or two ounces, he said. That's perfect for wine tastings.
"It's a great concept," Russell said. "He'll do well with it."

The extremely welcome warm weather of the past week has been bringing interested visitors by the thousands to the Spring Parade of Homes.
New home sales agents are reporting people were lined up in anticipation of visiting show homes.
It's been a long, cold, miserable winter and it's been fabulous to finally be able to get out and discover the possibilities represented by the new homes on display during the parade.
Sales representatives showing the parade's 122 new homes have also been bombarded with a flurry of questions in the first two weeks of the event, with financial items front and centre. Visitors seem particularly enamoured with low mortgage rates and predictions they will continue, assuring now is an ideal time to buy a new home.
Some show homes display samples of mortgage calculations, while others promote banks and credit unions that are able to assist buyers.
Given most people visit a variety of new homes in the parade, it's inevitable comparison shopping and questions about the availability of different features arise. For instance, sales representatives have been asked about the cost of changing flooring to something that was seen elsewhere. Kitchen countertops and cabinets also stimulate discussions for changes, bathroom design is always a popular topic.
Given the cold weather of the past four months, energy efficiency is of interest and importance to visitors. Manitoba new homes are the most energy-efficient in Canada. Since 1990, their energy efficiency has increased by 21.6 per cent while greenhouse gas emissions have declined by 40 per cent.
A new feature at this year's Parade that has proven to be very popular is the online ranking of new homes. Everyparade attendee can rank each home they visit in four different categories on a five-star scale. Simply click on the QR code on display in the home and you get to decide the winners of this year's parade.
If you don't know, don't be afraid to ask. The show-home staff offer a wealth of information and, if they don't immediately know the answer, they can find out and get back to you.
Remember, the 2014 Spring Parade of Homes continues through Sunday, March 23. Show homes are open Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.
Mike Moore is the president of the Manitoba Home Builders' Association.

Weather Journal: A Chilly Weekend on the Way
The weekend begins mild and ends with a frigid Sunday that will have Greater New Yorkers huddled next to their heaters.
High pressure slides offshore on Friday as a cold front approaches from the west and passes through Friday night. Clouds and scattered showers will move into western portions of northeast New Jersey and the lower Hudson River Valley in the early hours of Friday. During the day, these spread eastward to cover the entire region. Expect highs to climb into the lower to middle 50s Friday, thanks to the milder air mass delivered by this front.
The mercury begins to slide south under partly sunny skies on Saturday. High temperatures approach 50 around the tri-state area, although a northwest wind around 10 mph will bring a slight chill to the air. A chance of rain, mainly before 9 a.m., stands at 40 percent so any showers are unlikely to impact cyclists participating in Manhattan's annual Cranksgiving. A strong Arctic cold front moves in on Saturday night, setting up Sunday and Monday to be two of the chilliest days this fall.

Varney the Vampire
by Thomas Preskett Prest
Publisher: Project Gutenberg 2005
The following romance is collected from seemingly the most authentic sources, and the Author must leave the question of credibility entirely to his readers, not even thinking that he is peculiarly called upon to express his own opinion upon the subject. Nothing has been omitted in the life of the unhappy Varney, which could tend to throw a light upon his most extraordinary career, and the fact of his death just as it is here related, made a great noise at the time through Europe and is to be found in the public prints for the year 1713.

Five Fall performances not to be missed at Duke
Austin-based theater troupe Rude Mechanicals (Rude Mechs) makes its debut in Durham with "Now Now Oh Now," an interactive performance that delves into questions of beauty, evolution, choice and chance. It is a show filled with surprises and puzzles for those who attend. Embodying Rude Mechs' desire to create a tangible, active and personal experience for audience members, the show is performed for an intimate audience of 30 people; attendees are encouraged to wear comfortable shoes while leaving large accessories at home. The show is dynamic and evolving, thus providing a slightly different experience for everyone who attends and participates in it. The theater collective—whose name derives from the manual laborers-turned-amateur actors in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream"—has seen significant evolution and development in the focus of "Now Now Oh Now" since its beginnings in 2010. Focused primarily on the interplay between our evolutionary nature and the drives of competition and random events in the shaping of our lives and the world around us, "Now Now Oh Now" has been described as a "delightful way to have your mind blown" (Austin Chronicle).
Rude Mechs' "Now Now Oh Now" will be performed at Sheafer Theater Wednesday, Sept. 24th through Saturday, Sept. 27th.
The legacy of qawwali, a musical genre devoted to extolling the virtues of love and worship of God, is carried through the hypnotic, undulating voices of qawwali singers today. Qawwali, a form of Sufi devotional music, has a history that stretches back for over 700 years. While its roots can be traced back to 8th century Persia (present-day Iran and Afghanistan), it has relatively recently gained mainstream popularity, first receiving international recognition through the work of late singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (who was considered to be one of the greatest voices ever recorded, and who could perform at high intensity for several hours) in the 1980s. His nephews, Rizwan and Muazzam, carry this qawwali superstar's legacy and the legacy of qawwali to audiences worldwide today. Accompanying Rizwan and Muazzam, the lead singers of Rizwan-Muazzam Qawwali, are five secondary singers who offer their talents in vigorous hand claps, choral responses and harmonium and tabla instrumentals. Performing in traditional qawwali style, they sit on the ground rather than on seats, believing that this brings them closer to God.
Rizwan-Muazzam Qawwali will perform on Oct. 9 at Reynolds Theater.
yMusic and Sam Green: "The Measure of All Things"
Accompanied by dynamic music from yMusic—a New York City based sextet acting in the gap between the pop and classical music worlds—Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Sam Green's film/music project "The Measure of All Things" reflects on questions of fate, time and the human experience. The film, which premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival, is loosely inspired by "The Guinness Book of World Records." Whether it be the tallest man in the world, at 7 feet 9 inches, or the man most frequently struck by lightning, having survived seven lightning strikes, the film is a threading together of portraits of various record-holding people, places and things. "The Measure of All Things" will be screened with in-person narration by Green himself, complemented by live music from yMusic.
The screening of "The Measure of All Things" will occur on Saturday, Nov. 15 in Reynolds Theater.
Ciompi Concert No. 2 Featuring Amernet String Quartet
Following their first concert, which they shared with pianist Awadagin Pratt, the Ciompi Quartet features the Amernet String Quartet in their second concert. Formed in 1991 by students at the Julliard School, the Amernet has since quickly risen to international attention, having been praised by The New York Times for their intelligent and "immensely satisfying" playing. The concert begins with Mozart's homage to Bach, Adagio and Fugue in C Minor, K. 546, and continues with Tchaikovsky's String Quartet No. 1 in D Major, of which the melancholic second movement, the Andante Cantabile, allegedly caused Leo Tolstoy to burst into tears. The concert will also be the premiere performance of a new octet for strings by Carl Schimmel, a 2008 Duke Ph.D. graduate, and will conclude with the performance of Octet for Strings, Op. 11, by the Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich.
The concert will be Saturday, Nov. 1 at Baldwin Auditorium.
The winners of Gramophone Recording of the Year in 2012, the Belgian vocal ensemble Vox Luminis has quickly gained a reputation in the world of choral music. Specializing in the performance of 16th to 18th century vocal music, the group has placed special emphasis on renaissance and baroque repertoire. Their recently released CD created a stir among choral music aficionados with its interpretation of Heinrich Schütz's Musicalische Exequien. This recording has received numerous awards, including the International Classical Music Award and the Baroque Vocal Gramophone Award. In this program, they sing Heinrich Schütz's requiem, followed by an extensive suite of works by J.S. Bach and his extended family. Producing a sound that is "warm and resonant—they sing this 300-year-old music with the freshness and ardor of true believers," according to The Independent.
Vox Luminis will perform on Thursday, Oct. 30, at the Duke Chapel.
