|The Bus Station Loonies proclaimed themselves "Plymouth's Finest Cheesy Cabaret Punk Band" - having never been to Plymouth, I'm sure they're right. They're also the GuinnessBookOfRecords record holder for the most gigs in 12 hours (25).
Their current website is at: http://www.bus.station.loonies.00band.com/ where you can find out about upcoming gigs, buy CDs etc.
Their old website at: http://loonies.itgo.com/ has some pictures and links to mp3.com where you can download some of their rather good songs - for example "We're the Loonies in the Bus Station" - to the tune of "We're the Kids in America".
I saw them (in some incarnation) at the MarketTavern in Birmingham in Feb 2002 and they were great.

Join Nal'ibali in sharing Madiba Magic with children this Mandela Day
To commemorate the centenary celebration of Nelson Mandela's birthday, Nal'ibali – South Africa's reading-for-enjoyment campaign – is highlighting some of the values he embodied by sharing a special series of three children's stories. Made possible through a collaboration with non-governmental organisation Heartlines, the stories focus on honesty, compassion and forgiveness and are an effective way for adults and caregivers to pass on these values to children.
Available from Nal'ibali's website in English, isiXhosa, isiZulu and Afrikaans for the week of Mandela's birthday, the stories, Topo's Tree House, Bear's Haircut and The Small Seed, will also be shared among children in Nal'ibali's national network of over 1 000 reading clubs. Each story comes with activities and talking points about the values it focuses on to help parents and caregivers engage their children around these important principles.
"Through discussing the pictures, characters and what is happening in a story, children learn about how stories work and how to explore them. By letting the conversation flow naturally as we enjoy a story together, we are extending children's literacy learning. Many stories focus on how characters deal with challenges that life sends their way. Story conversations help children to
Not only does Nal'ibali value the power of reading for enjoyment, it understands the role of language and cultural relevance in children's literacy development. Language is intrinsically linked to belonging and when children see themselves in stories, this too contributes to positive self-development.
To share these three stories with even larger audiences, community radio stations in KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Eastern Cape and Gauteng – the provinces with the highest concentration of children – will be reading them live on air as part of their 67 minutes of community service. Newcastle Community Radio, Intokozo FM, Capricorn FM, Kingfisher FM, Bay FM and Jozi FM are some of the radio stations supporting this drive, and will be placing a strong emphasis on the spirit of ubuntu, the values in the stories and those that unite the people of South Africa.
As uTata Madiba once said, "There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children." To this end, Nal'ibali is inviting all caregivers, older readers and active citizens to share one, two or all three of these stories with the children in their lives this July. Members of the public are encouraged to share photographs and tag Nal'ibali on Facebook and Twitter: @nalibaliSA.
Concludes Jade Jacobsohn, Nal'ibali Managing Director, "To celebrate what would have been his 100th birthday, we at Nal'ibali would like to remember the values uTata Madiba stood for and help ensure these values are passed on to our children. Children are the future. Let's continue to spark their potential through the power of storytelling and reading."
Do you know someone who upholds Mandela's values? Nal'ibali is celebrating South Africans who embody Madiba's values of education, equality and freedom. Nominations are open until 18 July. For details on how to submit your nomination, visit www.nalibali.org and www.nalibali.mobi. Follow Nal'ibali on Facebook and Twitter: @nalibaliSA.

Do You Love Me?
15 So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Feed My lambs."
16 He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Tend My sheep."
17 He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep (John 21:15-17).
Jesus was the same after His crucifixion, as He was before His crucifixion.
Although, He had lain in the tomb, and descended into the place of the dead, and then retraced His steps back to the land of the living, He remained unchanged in His behavior and character.
His death, and His resurrection, could not change His character as a man, any more than they could affect His distinctiveness as God the Son.
He is Jesus and He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
And after His resurrection, when He appeared to His disciples, He still had His kind manners; He hadn't lost any of His interest in their welfare; He talked to them just as tenderly as before, and He called them His children and His friends.
He was even concerned about their bodily needs because he asked, "Children, do you have any meat?"
And He was just as worried about their spiritual condition, because after He had supplied them with a net full of fish from the sea, (which He may have created just for this occasion) He asked them a question that would test the condition of their faith.
He began by asking the one that you would suppose would be in the most sickly condition, the one who had denied his master three times, and then wept bitterly.
He asked Peter, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?"
We are only going to look at three things in this event:
1. There is a serious question; "Do you love Me?"
2. There is a discreet answer; "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You."
3. There is an assignment made; "Jesus said to him, 'Feed My lambs' or 'Feed My sheep."
First, then, there was A SERIOUS QUESTION, which Jesus put to Peter, not for the Lord's information, but for Peter's benefit.
The question hurt, and Peter expressed his pain, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You."
It is good for us, especially after committing some unpleasant sin, to think about what we have done.
And Peter needed to think about what he had done, because sin can have an awful affect on our spiritual condition, and Christians should check themselves to see if their heart is tuned to listen to the Lord.
All of us should think about what we have done whenever we sin, and ask for forgiveness from our Heavenly Father.
It ought to be a daily habit, and we will need to do it for as long as we live.
Our Savior asked Peter this question, so that Peter could ask it of himself.
So, I think that we should also ask ourselves the same question this morning.
Let's ask ourselves in Jesus name, "Do you love the Lord?" "Do you love the Savior?" "Do you Love the One who died for you?"
Notice what this question was.
It was a question concerning Peter's love.
He did not say, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you fear Me?"
He did not say, "Do you admire Me?" or "Do you idolize Me?"
And this wasn't a question regarding his faith.
He didn't say, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you believe in Me?"
But he asked him another question, "Do you love Me?"
I believe that love is the very best evidence of holiness.
Love is the greatest of all the graces that a person can possess, and therefore it is the best evidence of holiness.
I believe that faith is the foundation of our salvation, and that love springs from it.
If we have faith, it is a sure sign that we are God's children; but there are also the gifts of God and they are also sure signs as well, but many of them cannot be seen by others.
Love is perhaps the best evidence and probably the easiest to detect.
The person, who lacks love, must also lack faith.
If love is little, that is a sign that faith is little; but a persons who believes much also loves much.
If love is little then respect for God will be little and the courage to serve God will be little.
Every gift of God that comes to the believer by the grace of God, is rooted in the faith of the believer, but they are also tied to our capacity to love.
So if love is weak, they must also be in a weak state.
That is why Our Lord asked Peter that question, "Do you love Me?"
It is interesting to note that Jesus didn't ask Peter what he had done.
He didn't say, "Simon Peter, how much have you cried? How often have you attempted to make amends for your great sin? How often have you got down on your knees to ask for My forgiveness for denying Me? You said that you would follow Me to prison and to death, but instead, you disowned Me."
But Jesus didn't ask about his works, instead, He asked about the state of his heart.
He asked, "Do you love Me?"
I believe that we are given this conversation to teach us something important.
It is that even though works flow out of love, love is greater than works, and that works without love are not worth doing.
We may shed some tears, but they are not tears that God will accept unless we love Him.
We may do some good works, but they will not be accepted by God unless they are done out of love for Him.
We can observe communion and give our tithes, but unless we do these things out of love for God they will not be accepted. So the question which Jesus asked, "Do you love Me?" is one that goes into the heart, and causes the person to examine his own heart, because if he does not love, everything else is wrong.
So Jesus asked him, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?"
My friends, we have a reason to ask ourselves the same question.
If our Savior was nothing more than a mere man, He might doubt if we love Him at all.
Let me just remind you of the many things which give us a reason to ask this question, "Do you love Me?"
Think with me for a moment about the sins of last week.
Don't they make you doubt whether you love the Lord?
So, let's look at the sins of last week.
Did you speak any words in anger?
Did you give anyone an angry look?
If you did either of these things, the Lord might have tapped you on the shoulder and asked, "Do you love Me?"
Could you have mumbled to yourself a complaint about someone, because something had gone wrong and you blamed God for it?
Could our Savior have looked at us out of pity and asked, "Why did you say that? Don't you love Me?"
I believe that both you and I have been guilty of various sins this past week, and I am sure they are grounds for self-examination.
But let's keep this thought in mind, "It is His love for us, not our love for Him that is the basis for our salvation, our security, and our discipleship."
Have you ever thought to yourself, "If I loved Him more, would I sin less? Or Can I love Him, since I have broken so many of the commandments? Have I lived a life that points others toward Christ? Haven't I wasted a lot of hours during the week when I could be witnessing for Christ? Haven't I wasted many precious hours watching television when instead I could have spent that time in prayer? How many words have I wasted in idle conversation that could have been used to tell someone about Christ? How many foolish things have I been involved in? How many sins have I done without being sorry? How many lies have I covered over? How many times have I broken my Savior's heart? How have I dishonored the cause of Christ? How have I in some ways disgraced my profession of love to Him?"
I hope that you will ask these questions of yourself, my friends, and say, "Is this how I should treat my Savior?"
But now let me put another question to you, "Does your worldliness ever make you doubt?"
How have you spent your time from Monday morning until Saturday night?
Have you taken hardly any time to think about Him?
Have you ever pushed Jesus into a corner to make room for your pleasure?
Have you put Him away for five minutes to make room for your own plans?
How very little time we give to Him.
We occupy ourselves with the news, the weather, the television, entertainment, sporting events, and social conversation.
Think about it; was there even a day last week where your goal was to think about Him, and to read your Bible, and to pray?
Did you crave to spend time with your Savior?
No, probably not, and perhaps there was a whole day go by and you scarcely thought of Him, until the end of the day, and then you could only scold yourself, and ask, "How could I have forgotten Christ today? I have not thought of Him; I have not walked with Him. I knew He would set with me at meals and when I am in conversation, and that He would lay with me when I nap, and that He would walk with me down the halls; but I left Him in my room and forgot Him all day long."
Surely, when we remember our worldliness, we must say to ourselves, "Dear Lord, You might as well ask, "Do you love Me?"
Now think about this, "How cold were your prayers last week?"
I know you have prayed, since you can't live without it, because you're a Christian, and prayer is as necessary to you as your breath.
But how little you breathed last week.
Do you remember how you hurried through your prayers on Monday morning, and how obsessed you were on Tuesday night?
Last week there was little time for prayer, so ask yourself, "Do my prayers make me doubt?"
I can honestly say that there are times that my prayers make me doubt.
Those are the times when I struggle to pray.
It seems at those times that there are a hundred thoughts racing through my mind and there are distractions all around me.
And there are times when I desire to come close to God, and to cry my eyes out and to seek His forgiveness, but instead there is little faith and little repentance.
It is sad, but I think that prayer can make me more unbelieving than anything else, because I can believe over the top of my sins, but I can just barely believe over the top of my prayers.
Prayer is so cold when we are cold.
Of all things that are bad when cold, I think prayer is the worst, because it becomes a mockery, and instead of warming the heart it makes it colder than before, and it dampens the spirit, and fills it full of doubts as to whether I am accepted by Christ.
Look at your prayers and if they appear cold, ask yourself this question, "Isn't your Savior right to ask, "Do you love Me?"
Now, I have asked all of these questions, because I have been asking them of myself, and I think that if you're honest with yourself you would have to admit that you need to ask yourself the same questions.
I don't approve of people who say, "I know that I love Christ and I never have a doubt about it," because we often have reasons to doubt ourselves.
A believer's strong faith is not a strong faith in his love for Christ-it is a strong faith in Christ's love for him.
There is no faith that always believes that it loves Christ.
Strong faith has its conflicts and a true believer will often wrestle with his feelings.
The Christian can believe when he feels no love; because he can believe that Christ loves his soul, and he can come to Him with naked faith.
And even if we have no evidence of our love, we can come without evidence, just as we are, and lay hold of Him with faith alone.
Even though there are no signs of our love we can trust in the Lord, but to be certain at all times that we love the Lord is another matter, about which we should continually question ourselves.
Now we come to the second thing, which is A DISCREET ANSWER.
"Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?"
Simon gave a very good answer.
Jesus asked him in the first place whether he loved him better than the others did.
At one time, Simon was more than a little proud, and he did think he was better than the other disciples, but not now, so he evaded the question.
He would not say that he loved better than the others.
And I am sure that no one here would think that they love better than any other child of God.
I believe that the more grace that a person receives the lower he will be in his own esteem and the less likely he will be to claim superiority in love for Jesus.
But note that when Simon answered, he did not speak of the quantity of his love, but of the quality of it.
He would assert that he loved Christ, but not that he loved Christ better than the others.
His answer was like this, "I cannot say how much I love you; but You know all things; You know that I do love You. That's all I can claim: as to the quantity of my love I can't say much about that."
Peter answered very well, but some of us if we would have answered would have answered foolishly.
We would have said, "Lord, I have been humble, faithful, and honest; I have mentioned your name to others, and I have helped them when there was a need; so Lord, I think I can say I love You?"
We would tell Jesus about our good works and make that evidence of our love.
But what we should say is; "Lord, You have seen me during this week; You have seen My good works. I am thankful because I know they are Your gifts, but I think they are proofs of my love."
That would have been a very good answer.
You do not always love your Lord, so it would be foolish to tell Him that.
You know what the Master might have said to Peter if he had appealed to his works?
He could have said, "You may preach, even though you don't love Me; you may pray and still not love me; you can do all these works, and not love Me. I don't want the evidences of your love; I want the fact of it."
Most likely, everyone here would not have answered like this, you would say, "I love You, Lord; my heart is on fire for You; I would die for You."
But that would be a foolish answer, because these are feelings and these are the types of things which Peter said many times.
He trusted his feelings, and would have sunk into the sea, if Christ had not caught his hand.
If it had not been for the grace of God, his soul would have been damned when cursing and swearing he denied Christ.
But Peter was wise, and he left it to Christ, who knew that he loved Him.
Now, could we today give the answer Peter gave?
If Christ walked into our meeting, could we appeal to His knowledge of our hearts, that we all love Him?
The hypocrite might say, "Lord my friends know I love You, because they see me pray and read my Bible, and I talk to them about You," but he couldn't say, "Lord You know that I love You."
You know in your heart that you have been lazy in bible study, in prayer, and in witnessing.
The question that was asked of Peter was never put to Judas.
The Lord loved Peter so much that He had to have Him back, or He would never have appealed to his love.
Do not brag, but if you can sincerely say that God has given you a sincere love for the Savior, ask Him to increase your love from a grain to a mountain, then you can say, "Lord, You know all things, You know I love You."
And now, here is A DEMONSTRATION REQUIRED-"Feed My lambs: feed My sheep."
That was Peter's demonstration.
It may not be our way of showing our love.
There are different ways for different disciples.
Let me list some of the ways you can show your love for the Savior:
1. Pray for others.
Some people never pray, because they are lost, so they need to be prayed for.
Others have troubles that need prayer.
Pray about everything.
2. Encourage your brothers and sisters in Christ.
Tell them that you love them.
Listen to what they have to say, and when you speak let it be nothing but good.
3. Help those who have needs, as much as you possess the ability to help.
I will let you fill in the rest, because I know you know how to do good works.
Just remember, don't say you love Christ and never do anything for Him.
We must let our good works be evidence of our sincere love for Christ.
Do all you can to the best of your ability, and if you ever do too much for Christ come and tell me, and tell the angels-but you never will do that.
He gave himself for you; give yourself to Him.
I have been asking you to search your own hearts, because our love for Christ must be nourished where it was first kindled.
Look to the heart of Jesus for help to remove any hindrances to your love.
Ask the Holy Spirit to show you the things of Jesus, and to awaken your strong desire to serve Him.
Yield yourself to Christ, and from now on let the proofs of your love for Him be your good works.
And if you have never given yourself to Christ, I can only pray for you, that God the Savior would reveal himself to your heart; that you would be brought to give yourself to Him.
May our Heavenly Father bless all of you, for Christ's sake!
Would appreciate your questions and comments

First designed to clip onto a 9×11 Comstock Cage Trap, the Chimney Adapter fits securely onto a Comstock Cage Trap extending down into the chimney 18 inches. If a double door trap is used there is a chance of catching a raccoon entering the chimney as well as exiting, though many indicate 95% of the raccoons are exiting, often a female with a litter. The adapter can be used with both single and double door 9×11 Comstock Cage Taps.
Carl Johnson of Great Lakes Nuisance Animal Control found another use for the adapter, using it on dormers and soffits to fit tight places to be used like the narrow custom Comstock 6x11x36 flush mount raccoon trap. This adapter can be used most anywhere in tight quarters since it is outfitted with an 18 inch nose that has a small 5×9 opening. Thanks for sharing Carl.

The shopping initiative Coles has just introduced to 173 stores
Coles will be expanding its Quiet Hour initiative to 173 stores from today, where they will dim the lights, turn down the music and reduce in-store distractions.
The supermarket giant said that they want to provide an autism-friendly shopping environment which is why they will be adding an additional 103 stores nationwide in order to give a "more inclusive environment for all customers".
Receiving an influx of support from parents of autistic children, Quiet Hour was first introduced in August last year and now will be put in place in 56 stores in New South Wales, 27 in Queensland and 20 in Western Australia – every Tuesday from 10:30 am to 11:30 am.
"It's been very positive," said Sarah Miller, a mother of two autistic children, Cameron and Kevin.
"Shopping is one of those life skills that as a parent I need to teach my boys, not just actually going to the shops but making healthy choices, spending money, going through the cash register. With this, I'm able to take a bit more time."
Ms Miller said that Kevin, 6, would get "very upset" and "worked up, particularly in busy environments with lots of lights and things going on".
"The stigma of shopping with kids on the spectrum is pretty difficult," she said.
To counteract that issue, she said that in the past she would try not to take both children at once on a shopping trip, but often at times, that was not possible. "I would try to divide and conquer," she said. "Now I make a point of putting (the Tuesday shopping trip) on my visual calendar, just like I would book in speech therapy, occupational therapy appointments. For my boys that becomes familiar."
Ms Miller said Quiet Hour also allowed her to meet parents in the same situation.
"We've listened to our customers, and our store teams have worked hard to make our stores more welcoming and responsive to the needs of the local communities in which we operate," said Coles managing director John Durkan in a statement.
"We initially started with 70 Quiet Hour stores across the country, and now we're thrilled to be more than doubling this figure to make Quiet Hour more accessible for our customers and help make a difference to their shopping experience at Coles."
Coles developed the program in partnership with Autism Spectrum Australia. During Quiet Hour, lighting is dimmed, Coles Radio is switched off, register and scanning volume is reduced to the lowest level and PA announcements are stopped except in emergencies. Collection of trolleys are also put on hold and additional customer service staff are on hand.
What do you think of the Quiet Hour initiative? Let us know in the comments below.

A wander through the Yarra Valley
Posted by Jacqui on 21st Jun 2017
Yarra Valley is a stone's throw from the City of Melbourne with approximately 146 small vineyards and wineries interspersed with some major wine companies. It is one of the best-known wine regions in Victoria.
Last Sunday I had the privilege of a day trip to the Yarra whilst on a break in Melbourne for the long weekend. I was very keen to visit some of the cellar doors whose wine we stock at Beyond the Label.
First stop was Coombe Farm, once the home of world famous opera singer Dame Nellie Melba. The Coombe Farm wine brand was established in 2002 with the 'Farm' cellar opening in 2007. We stock the Coombe Farm Blanc de Blancs.
Next stop was Soumah cellar door, Well! - this place was a firm favourite of mine! The beautiful duck egg blue colour theme running through from the entrance right through to the olive oil bottles on our table.
We stock their Single Vineyard Hexham Pinot Noir which shows elegance and balanced fruit with secondary developed flavours of earth and savoury spice.
We also stock their Single Vineyard Chardonnay who's delicate yet complex bouquet displays a struck match character with a fresh and vibrant grapefruit and citrus palate melded with cashew and minerality.
We enjoyed amazing pizzas (and wine of course) from their beautiful and extremely popular restaurant.
We then paid a visit to Helen's Hill (Ingram road) – we stock their Ingram road Pinot Noir.
This is another lovely cellar door nestled at the bottom of the hill and surrounded by vines with a lovely 'wine deck' overlooking lots of trees. It has floor to ceiling views of the huge barrel room and winery.
We stock their Ingram Road Pinot Noir which displays rich varietal characters on the nose, sweet cherry and strawberry flavours on the front and mid palate with a savory, earthy (spicy) finish on the back palate. Thanks to the French oak, the wine has a wonderful full textural mouth weight and long-lasting finish.
Finally, we paid a visit to Coldstream Hills cellar door. James Halliday - Australian wine writer and critic, winemaker, and senior wine competition judge was the founder of Coldstream Hills and resides here today.
A little history on the Yarra Valley:
The first vines in Victoria were planted in the early 1840's at Yering Station by the Ryrie brothers. The Station was bought by Paul de Castella in 1848 which lead to a number of Swiss immigrants moving into the valley. Only one family survives from this Swiss-influenced era, the de Purys at Yernigberg.
This region has certainly endured plenty of problems. In late 2006, Phylloxera, the vine louse was discovered in the region. In 2009 devastating bushfires, also frost and the effects of drought were key contributors to this. Fungal disease and birds also pose a threat to this area.
The Yarra's reputation firmly lies with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Other varietals include Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Staffay - Comprehensive Jazz Theory SI Lesson
Comprehensive Jazz Theory - Introduction, Backcycling and the "Parker Blues"
Lesson by Staffay
In my mid-teens my father tried to persuade me to listen to jazz - which was a quite hopeless intent since I was really into Eddie Van Halen, Deep Purple and hard-rock stuff. But some years later a heard a jazz-rock album by the well-known Swedish guitar player Jan Schaffer, where he plays a solo that totally knocked me off. It wasn't that fast, rather the kind of phrasing he was using, that interested me. My father had some records with Rune Gustafsson (another weell-known jazz-player in Sweden) were Schaffer also was present, and I realized where this kind of phrasing and strange notes came from. It was just pure jazz. (even that some people don't like the term)
I started to listen to players like Jim Hall, Joe Pass etc. and recorded concerts from the radio. (I still have one with John Scofield on trio, which I didn't understand a thing about back then) I was also picking up Pat Metheny's legendary record with Jaco Pastorius, and some others - but still I didn't get it. What were they playing, and why were they playing these notes with a feel that was completely odd to me? Back then, it was nearly impossible to get any books on the topic, but I managed to get my hands on one by Joe Pass, which I have never seen since then... I also started to transcribe from records and was reading some jazz theory and studied chord-progressions mostly on the piano - since that is more natural in my case. Later I played a lot of modern/classic jazz in different settings, but was forced to commercial music in order to pay the bills. With this and upcoming articles I want to share some of my knowledge about this wonderful kind of music - and even though Im not playing it myself rather than occasionally these days - I hope that it will be inspiring for some of You to read. I will start on an intermediate level and then progress to some very advanced stuff coming up in forthcoming articles. (at least I believe so) So let's start!
The three versions on blues in a jazz contest
In the beginning there was blues - just those three chords in 12 bars we all know. Jazz players early made their own version that has a more varied style of changing the chords, which is often referred to as a "jazz-blues". Basically there is a sub-dominant added in the beginning as well as some dominant substitutions and a "turnaround" at the end. (see below)
In early jazz the players just improvised over the blues scale, rhythmic approaches and riffs and the notes found in some bluesy themes rather than use a more thinking approach, eg. use specific scales for specific chords. Later, musicians like Charlie Parker, Dizzie Gillespie and Bud Powell developed the Be-Bop approach, which consists of a more chordal approach in the improvisations - playing chord notes and lead-in notes to those as well as some scale-runs. Also the chromatism played a major role in their improvisations. But in order to take advantage of this "new" style of playing, they probably felt that the regular chord-progressions were a little too simple as a background for their improvisations, and they developed a system for chord embellishment known as "Backcycling". (at least its the term I use)
Backcycling is based on the fact that You can actually replace one bar in a static chord-progression with the dominant to that chord. Then the dominant itself can be replaced by the dominant to the dominant and so on. This will give us the famous "turnaround" that goes like this in the key of F: F - D7 - Gm7 - C7
Since D7 is dominant to Gm7 and Gm7 is a dominant to C7 (not really, since its a minor chord), we are actually "cycling back" to the root, which is our destination.
Below are three versions of blues in a jazz context that show how the progression has developed:
|F7 | | | |Bb7 | | F7 | |C7 |Bb7 |F7 |C7 |
|F7 |Bb7 |F7 | |Bb7 |(Bdim) | F7 |D7 |Gm7 |C7 |F7 D7 |Gm7 C7 |
The "Parker-blues"
|Fmaj7 |Em7b5 A7 |Dm7 G7 |Cm7 F7 |Bb7 |Bbm7 Eb7|Am7 D7 |Abm7 Db7|Gm7 |C7 |F7 D7 |Gm7 C7 |
Please note that the dominants that lead to a major chord can be "coloured" with 9'ths, 13'ths and the dominants that lead to a minor chord may be "coloured" with b9, #9, #5 etc. (Also there are options that refer to quartal harmony, but that will be discussed in another lesson)
Charlie Parker took this approach to its limit in songs like "Blues for Alice", "Confirmation" and others. What he did was back-cycling from the second bar of the blues all the way to the sub-dominant of the blues progression. From there he made a chromatically movement back to the root and ends up in a turnaround. (see fig.) Even this chromatic movement can be explained theoretically with the dominant substitution rule as the following applies: Every dominant can be replaced by its flatted fifth - eg. a C7 may be replaced by a Gb7, and a F7 may be replace by a B7. Why? Since the notes in a C7#5 will be exactly the same as a Gb9, except for the root, this is just logical. So the progression from the subdominant goes like this: Bb minor is dominant of Eb7 (making it a II-V btw.) - that leads to Am7 that leads to D9 - that leads to Abm7 and Db9 - that leads to Gm7 and C9 and then finally the root with the turnaround. Parker also made the first chord a major chord instead of a minor 7 and the whole progression in the beginning until the sub-dominant is harmonized over the F major scale, even though some notes may stick out.
So how do this apply in terms of improvisation? I will take some examples here based on different approaches found in other players styles.
The first one here is an excerpt from an early John Scofield solo that just shows the beauty of be-bop lines combined with his legato and unique phrasing style:
By analyzing this example we can see that all is pure be-bop in the terms of playing broken chords over the changes. In the first part all dominants are "minor" -ones, eg. they have a minor "colour" that leads to a minor root. (b9,#9,#5) John Scofield also assumes that when he plays, and plays broken b9 -chords, which applies to the diminished scale of the dominant chord. The rest of the solo is pretty straight-forward and implies broken minor9's all the way in different forms.
The second example is an excerpt from Miles Davis record "Walkin" from the 50's, and is interesting in the fact that Miles never was a be-bop player in the same fashion as Parker & Gillespie. He rather played on scales than relied on the broken-chord concept. Also, his kind of "flow" in his playing was later adopted by many modern jazz players. Please note that this example is 8 bars, Parker re-wrote the blues progression a little bit and added a bridge to compose these classical be-bop tune.
If we use Miles approach to the "Parker-blues" progression above, it simply fits playing the whole progression with a major F-scale and emphasize some notes that are out of of the scale at the right spots. However, we must step out of F-major when playing over Bbm7 / Eb7 and Abm7 / Db7 which will be II-V's to Abmaj7 and Gbmaj7. In terms of altering the F-major scale, Miles uses the minor 7 as well as the sharp 5 in a chromatic approach which is very useful and can be heard amongst the most jazz-players. This also applies to F-majors relative - the D-minor chord - and when improvising over a static D-minor chord these phrases will sound just great!
The third example is by Michael Brecker played on a record with Will Lee called "Bird House". Michael Brecker uses a more rhythmic approach and a more modern sounding tonal touch.
In the first bars of the solo Michael picks up notes from the theme, and then in the fourth bar comes a sixteenth-note phrase that begins in C-minor but ends up in a half/whole -tone scale. (see further notes) In the 7'th and 8'th bar Michael plays over Gb7 rather than C7, which is implied by a Gb mixolydian scale. (and broken Gb7)
The next chorus begins with a beautiful repetetive phrase that targets Bb7. He follows the chord movements and uses mostly chord tones. On the following Bb7 he plays a mixolydian scale with a minor 6'th, which is an implementation of the melodic minor scale on a 7'th chord. Further on we have a diminished phrase that lands on pure chord notes in the last two bars. Other points of interest is that he several times plays "on" the beat to emphasize rhythm - in contrast to the old way of playing jazz, in which the "off" -beat are mostly emphasized. He doesn't either play in a "linear" -approach, in the meaning that large intervals are used. What stands clearly out is that he knows exactly what he's doin here.
The last example is one that I put together myself to show some use of pentatonics and some Pat Metheny -like chromatism to tackle this chord progression. Please note that this example doesn't deal with rhythm - rather a tonal approach in order to show the thinking here.
In the first two bars, there is a classic Pat Metheny -phrase. It follows in the third bar by D-minor pentatonic and Bb-minor pentatonic on the G7 chord. The reason that Bb-minor pentatonic can be played over a G7, is that if a melodic minor substitution is used on G7 - it will give us Ab melodic minor, and if You build a pentatonic minor scale on Ab melodic minor it will be Bb-minor pentatonic. Same applies to bar 4 where the phrase is simply repeated. In bar six there are Bb-minor pentatonic and a Bb minor pentatonic with the 5'th replaced by the 6'th. (commonly used by Robben Ford on the IV chord in blues progressions). In the 7'th its simply A-minor pentatonic. The same chromatic phrase as in bar 1 is used for Abm7 / Db7 but here it begins at the 9'th of the Abm7 and leads in to the Gm7 in the next bar. In bar 9 a broken Gm7 is played and in bar 10 Db melodic minor is used. (a very common phrase in modern jazz) The last bars consists of chord tones and a Scofield-like string skipping pattern that treats the Gm7 / C7 as one bar of C7#9#5 - which is Db minor melodic respectively.
Tips: To find the minor pentatonic scale that applies to an altered 7'th chord - think a third above, eg. If the chord is C7#9#5, You may think Eb-minor pentatonic. Or alternatively You can say that You will play the minor pentatonic 1 whole Step behind the root, which may be easier in some cases.
To sum up
These examples show four different ways to handle one of the most common chord-progressions in jazz. The easiest way would be to use Miles approach and is a good starting point if You haven't played this before. (see above) I suggest playing around with rhythm in the phrasing since the notes here may be of less importance if there is a strong rhythmic approach as we can see in the Michael Brecker example. You might be confused of the embellishments in the examples, so if there is any questions, just leave a note here and I will answer right back.
The examples referred to is taken from:
John Scofield - own recording made in Copenhagen early 80'ths
Michael Brecker - "Confirmation", Will Lee "Birdhouse"
Miles Davis - "Confirmation", Miles Davis "Walkin"
In the very first bars I really play the "Superimposing pentatonics" -example.
In the third chorus the "Scofield" -example can be heard.
Otherwise most of the things played are based on the theory's above, with some few exceptions.
Chord progression for backing tracks (Confirmation)
The form is AABA:
|Fmaj7 |Em7b5 A7 |Dm7 G7 |Cm7 F7 |Bb7 |Am7b5 D7b9|G7 |Gm7 C7 |
|Fmaj7 |Em7b5 A7 |Dm7 G7 |Cm7 F7 |Bb7 |Am7b5 D7b9|Gm7 C7 |Fmaj7 |
Bridge: |Cm7 |F7 |Bbmaj7 |Bbmaj7 |Ebm7 |Ab7 |Dbmaj7 |Gm7 C7 |
|Fmaj7 |Em7b5 A7 |Dm7 G7 |Cm7 F7 |Bb7 |Am7b5 D7b9|Gm7 C7 |Fmaj7 |

The Affluence Network International Danmark
We would like to thank you for coming to TAN in search of "The Affluence Network International Danmark" online.
Since among the earliest forms of making money is in money lending, it is a fact that one can do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the giving websites currently focus on Bitcoin, a few of these websites you happen to be needed fill in a captcha after a specific time frame and are rewarded with a small quantity of coins for seeing them. You are able to see the www.cryptofunds.co site to find some lists of of these websites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin marketplaces have quite different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical outlook for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have rather inferior liquidity as well and it is hard to produce a fair investment strategy.
Cryptocurrency is freeing individuals to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in a similar way, but they also participate in more elaborate smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a particular number of a defined group of people agree to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This enables innovative dispute arbitration services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment methods, the blockchain consistently leaves public proof that a transaction happened. This can be potentially used within an appeal against businesses with deceptive practices.
Bitcoin is the main cryptocurrency of the net: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, international, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or any regulatory agencies. Therefore, it really is more immune to crazy inflation and corrupt banks. The advantages of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting money online outweigh the security and privacy threats. Security and privacy can easily be reached by simply being bright, and following some basic guidelines. You'dn't set your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of ownership from your wallets and thus keeping you anonymous.
This mining task validates and records the transactions across the entire network. So if you are trying to do something prohibited, it is not recommended because everything is recorded in the public register for the rest of the world to see forever.

You've probably heard this often where you often distribute the great word about crypto. "It's not risky? What goes on if the cost failures? " So far, many POS programs presents free transformation of fiat, relieving some issue, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, many people will soon be reluctant to put on any. We need to discover a way to fight the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies.
The physical Internet backbone that carries information between the different nodes of the network is currently the work of several firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), which includes firms offering long distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local pipe, which ultimately joins in homes and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only happen through one of these ISPs, players like level 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP manages its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private businesses, and sometimes by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to move messages across the network. Many ISPs have arrangements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and companies who desire to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network makes it possible for the data to flow without interruption, in the right location at the right time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet together these businesses determine how it works, and recognized rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is taking place to determine how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs permission from a Registrar, which includes a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to attach to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work on the problem and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you've got someone to call to get it mended. If the issue is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts set up and service level agreements, which regulate the way in which these issues are resolved.
The advantage of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't regulated by any focused firm. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a dedicated advocate badge of honour, and is identical to the way the Internet operates. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works present inherent difficulties to an individual. Blockchain technology has none of that.
Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too fast, there may be some issues. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could rise drastically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the entire stage of Ethereum could become destabilized due to the raising costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether may result in an adverse change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based business that may lead to business being unable to continue to operate or to cease operation.
Many individuals prefer to use a currency deflation, notably those who desire to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some applications than others. Financial solitude, for instance, is excellent for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign financing.

The beauty of the cryptocurrencies is the fact that fraud was proved an impossibility: because of the dynamics of the process in which it's transacted. All purchases over a crypto currency blockchain are permanent. After youare paid, you get paid. This is not anything temporary wherever your customers could challenge or require a discounts, or employ unethical sleight of hand. In practice, most professionals will be wise to work with a transaction processor, due to the permanent dynamics of crypto currency purchases, you should be sure that stability is tricky. With any type of crypto currency whether a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or any of the numerous different altcoins, thieves and hackers might get access to your individual recommendations and therefore grab your money. Unfortunately, you most likely can never have it back. It is very important for you really to embrace some excellent secure and safe methods when working with any cryptocurrency. Doing this may protect you from all of these bad activities.
In case of the fully functioning cryptocurrency, it could perhaps be traded as being a thing. Promoters of cryptocurrencies say that this type of electronic income is not controlled by a fundamental banking system and it is not thus susceptible to the whims of its inflation. Since there are a limited variety of goods, this moneyis value is founded on market forces, enabling owners to business over cryptocurrency trades.
Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have been designed as a non-fiat currency. Quite simply, its backers argue that there is "real" worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth climbs due to computing power, that is, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time frame that's worth an ever diminishing amount of money or some sort of reward in order to ensure the shortfall. Each coin consists of many smaller units. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are just to authenticate other trades, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant alternative, which is among the appealing aspects of the coin. The individual who has mined the coin holds the address, and transfers it to a value is supplied by another address, which is a "wallet" file stored on a computer. The blockchain is where the public record of transactions lives. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.
The fact that there is little evidence of any growth in the utilization of virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal efforts to regulate it. The reason for this could be simply that the market is too small for cryptocurrencies to justify any regulatory effort. It is also possible the regulators just don't comprehend the technology and its implications, awaiting any developments to act.
Mining cryptocurrencies is how new coins are put in circulation. Because there is no government control and crypto coins are digital, they cannot be printed or minted to create more. The mining process is what produces more of the coin. It may be useful to think about the mining as joining a lottery group, the pros and cons are exactly the same. Mining crypto coins means you will really get to keep the total rewards of your efforts, but this reduces your likelihood of being successful. Instead, joining a pool means that, overall, members will have a higher possibility of solving a block, but the reward will be divided between all members of the pool, according to the number of "shares" won.
If you're thinking about going it alone, it is worth noting that the applications configuration for solo mining can be more complicated than with a pool, and beginners would be probably better take the latter path. This alternative also creates a secure flow of earnings, even if each payment is small compared to totally block the wages.

Steroid Allegations Lead To Legal Threat And Termination Of St. Louis Hosts
Allegations that Los Angeles Angels first baseman Albert Pujols used performance enhancing drugs as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals have led to legal threats against WGNU St. Louis afternoon hosts Jack Clark, Kevin Slaten, and the management of the station.
Clark, who played in the majors for 18 years and also served as hitting coach of the Los Angeles Dodgers, claimed that Pujols and a couple other players used steroids during their playing career. Pujols released a statement last night that he planned to take legal action against Clark and WGNU.
I am currently in the process of taking legal action against Jack Clark and his employers at WGNU 920AM. I am going to send a message that you cannot act in a reckless manner, like they have, and get away with it. If I have to be the athlete to carry the torch and pave the way for other innocent players to see that you can do something about it, I am proud to be that person. I have five young children and I take being a role model very seriously. The last thing I want is for the fans, and especially the kids out there, to question my reputation and character.
WGNU brokers its weekday programming to Tim McKernan's InsideSTL Enterprises, which began operating the station as "CBS Sports 920" on August 1. Claiming that Clark and co-host Kevin Slaten are independent contractors and not employees of either WGNU or InsideSTL, the group announced early this morning that Clark and Slaten will not return to the station after just seven shows.
As independent contractors, we want to make it clear that the opinions expressed do not necessarily reflect the opinions of insideSTL. Also as independent contractors, insideSTL did not have editorial control over the show's content.

In February of 2013, the government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, quietly and without ceremony, opened the Koryo Link 3G celluar network to foreign tourists and journalists, allowing the first crack to form in the decades-old curtain of state-controlled text and media imagery. While the majority of North Korean nationals are restricted to using only the "walled garden" of the Kwangmyong intranet, and authorized access to the global internet is predominantly in the service of the propoganda of the state and the Worker's Party of Korea, this modest respite has resulted in the appearance of digital photography uploaded directly from north of the 38th parallel to the photo-sharing, social media network Instagram.
The sudden emergence of relatively uncensored imagery from inside the most secluded and poorly understood culture on Earth is a remarkable phenomenon in and of itself and a first encounter for a larger audience to what Philipp Meuser calls, "the world's best-preserved open-air museum of socialist architecture." But, the combination of the faux-retro, augmented reality of Instragram's filters and these first glimpes of the brutal emptiness of the streets of Pyongyang, the prefab, plattenbau facades of skyrise apartments, the surreal spectacles of Juche idealogy, and the all-to-familiar faces of people in the course of everyday life seem born from the same moody drama and intepretable authenticity."A Diplomatic Resolution" is a collection of all the photos on Instagram tagged with the search terms #pyongyang and/or #northkorea and organized by date of upload. By themselves, each photo, tainted as it is by the saturated Hefe, washed out Optimist or sepia-toned Earlybird story telling of the software, the photographer and our own expectations, captures a milisecond of witness to what AP photographer David Guttenfeld describes as "something worth trying to understand in North Korea." In the aggregate they represent an important moment in the history of technology, architecture, global culture and the DPKR.

DETROIT � This couldn�t have been the way Sidney Crosby imagined his first Stanley Cup Final game: Pointless.
The Penguins� 20-year-old captain had few scoring chances in Saturday night�s lopsided 4-0 loss to the Detroit Red Wings in Game 1, unable to energize a power play unit that kept squandering chances.
The only reason his name appears in the box score was he was called for a slashing penalty in the second period.
He did gain a better appreciation of the Red Wings but isn�t about to concede the series..
�They�re a good hockey team,� he said. �They play tight. I don�t think we came here expecting an easy series. For sure they played a tight checking game, but that�s playoff hockey. You still have to find ways around that.
�And for us, we all have more success when we moved our feet. In the second period we didn�t do that a whole lot. So make sure we do a better job getting the puck forward and moving our feet a little more.�
Afterward, he was already planning for Monday night�s Game 2 that�s back at Joe Louis Arena. Crosby said their mistake was that he and his teammates didn�t capitalize on their speed.
�It doesn�t matter who we play,� Crosby said.
�If we use our speed, we�re going to create things, whether it�s penalties or chances. Either or it�s going to help us.�
Crosby played more than 18 minutes in Saturday�s loss, including almost 5 minutes of power play time. Combined he had six shots.
His best chances came during a scoreless first period.
�I probably had some good chances early on, and they played tight,� Crosby said.
The Red Wings matched Crosby�s line with their top-scoring line that includes Henrik Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk.
The pair were held pointless until Zetterberg scored a power play goal in the final minute of the third period.
�I don�t think they had a lot (of scoring chances) against us either,� Crosby said.
�I think both lines did a pretty good job of battling and limiting chances. But on the goals that they scored, really, we just made a few mistakes.�

To call Thaddeus O'Neil a fashion designer doesn't quite get at the essence of the man. He is perhaps a surfer first and foremost, having grown up chasing waves on eastern Long Island, but he also studied the philosophy of art and has worked as a model, writer, and photographer's assistant to the likes of Bruce Weber.
All of these traits are evident in the items he packs for his travels, which often take him to Australia, where his wife is from, or to Central America. First into his luggage go notebooks (one for his collection ideas and one for random thoughts), a miniature paint set, and a veritable library of books ranging from Leonard Cohen's Beautiful Losers to a philosophy book by Peter Singer. Of course, he also brings plenty of clothes from his namesake label, including pipe pants (his take on sweatpants), tank tops, and trunks from his forthcoming swim collection, which he'll launch during Miami Swim Week this summer. Here, he shares what gets him through the 28-hour trip Down Under, what he brings back, and the one product he won't travel without.
"Central America is just like heaven."
"If I'm going somewhere, I want to be near the sea and surfing. This year, we went to Wyoming to visit a few friends and went skiing, but that is the first time in about 20 years that I've gone on a vacation to some place colder than where I already am. But Wyoming is a stunning part of the country, and it was an amazing trip. Generally, though: beach, sea. I love Australia just because I feel very at home there, and Bali, Nicaragua, Costa Rica. My friend has a place on the Osa Peninsula, which it's not all that well known because it's about an eight-hour drive from the airport. It's a really beautiful place. Central America is just like heaven."
"I'll forget my toothbrush before I forget a book."
"My wife is one who will have started her packing three or four days before a trip because she's slowly piecing it together. Maybe all guys are like this, but I am the night-before and then sometimes the morning-of packer. Honestly, I will forget my toothbrush or some underwear—I'm laying out my books first. I'm laying out the things I want to be reading or doing on the plane, and I'll forget my toothbrush before I forget a book."
"If you have multiple books, it's like having a conversation."
"I always like to dress comfortably on the plane, so I wear a pair of my pipe pants and then something with a hood so I can pull it up or take it off to use as a pillow, so you never have to travel with one of those weird neck things. I'll also bring along a pair of Ugg slippers or something for longer trips. Sometimes for those longer flights, when I remember, I'll bring a little vial of olive oil to rub into my nostrils—it's really good so you don't get dried out. The trip to Australia is 28 hours. That's why I have tons of books because with one book, you'll get bored. If you have multiple books, it's like having a conversation. You don't want to talk to the same person for 28 hours, but I can talk to six or seven people over 28 hours, and that's essentially what you're doing."
"I'm a collector and just find stuff that I want to bring into the studio for inspiration."
"I do check bags. If I am just going to L.A. for four days, or someplace breezy, maybe I won't check a bag. But, for example, we just went to Washington State, and I just knew I would want to bring crap back because I'm a collector and just find stuff that I want to bring into the studio for inspiration. So this last trip I came back with shells and driftwood and stuff that you would find with your grandma."
"I use watercolors on the plane sometimes."
"In my carry on, I always have books, note pads, a Gaia pouch filled with Sharpies, sketching pens and pencils, and my Winsor & Newton watercolor set. I use watercolors on the plane sometimes but lots of times I'll use them at my destination. I paint funny little color studies, although actually, this last trip I did little folk art-inspired picture of New Zealand tiki figures. But a lot of times I'm just mucking around. I always have some almonds, an apple, and water. Plus magazines—I like Hobo and Wax—my phone charger, and usually a few of my son's children's books, too (so I have even more books)."
"Have a beer or have a tequila."
"There is no jet-lag cure except sleep over time. It takes time. When you get to Australia, the minimum is like three days. For three to five days, you just have to slowly, slowly get there. You just kind of rough it out, right? If you feel like you want to lay down, have a beer or have a tequila or something, whatever you've got to do to stay up for a few more hours. But to be honest, what is the big cure? Sometimes you wake up at 5 in the morning, so you get up, you make a cup of tea, and you read your book in bed or you go for a walk."

A couple of weeks ago, young people who regularly visit a youth Pod in Holyhead, Anglesey, received a visit from two of their North Wales regional Assembly Members, Mark Isherwood AM and Michelle Brown AM.
Following a visit from the Youth Engagement team, when the young people learnt about the National Assembly for Wales and what it does, the young people asked whether their Assembly Members could visit them.
The young people were given the opportunity to speak to their Assembly Members about their role and to ask them questions. There were discussions around the way that Assembly Members are elected, Brexit, issues within schools and sexual health provision for young people.
Following the visit, one of the young people at the Pod, Caitlen from Holyhead, said, "I feel really proud that I have been involved in an event that raised awareness of issues affecting young people on Anglesey" and "I really felt as if I was being listened to and am excited that Mark Isherwood AM showed a particular interest and encouraged us to set up a petition to further our concerns".
Since the visit, the group has begun collecting signatures for a petition that asks the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to reconsider the decision to withdraw Project Lydia's funding and make funds available to reinstate the service on Anglesey. Project Lydia is a youth sexual health service that provides confidential youth clinics and SRE for all high schools, colleges and community groups on Anglesey.
