Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!
Let me preface the below by stating I'm not exactly what you'd call a "good cook". I do okay—haven't poisoned anyone yet. (In my opinion that is—I don't think it's fair that my family counts the person who had the gall bladder attack after eating my raw apple cake!!) And truthfully, when my sons say "just like Mom made" they are probably referring to something that came out of a can or a box. However, I do put a little effort into the holidays and since today is Thanksgiving, I thought I'd share my aunt's wild rice casserole recipe that I make every year. It is as follows:
1 cup wild rice½ cup onion
½ cup chopped celery
8 oz. mushrooms
2 cans cream of mushroom soup (you can use cream of celery or cream of chicken instead. I use cream of celery.)
Water chestnuts
¼ cup butter
Soak wild rice 16 to 24 hours changing water frequentlySauté onion, celery, and mushrooms in ¼ cup butter until tender
Add drained wild rice and continue to sauté for another 15 minutes
In a casserole dish, combine wild rice, onion, mushrooms, and celery with the 2 cans of soup and water chestnuts
Bake at 325 degrees for 50 minutes
Serves 6 to 8
This is a big family favorite so I usually make a double recipe. AND if there is any leftover, it's great the next day warmed up in the microwave with a little bit of butter.
That's it for now—again I hope you all have a happy and safe Thanksgiving!!!

Anatolian States
Trevor Bryce
This chapter explores the history of state formation in the Anatolian States, focusing on the Hittite state, which it explains arose in north-central Anatolia early in the Late Bronze Age while the Middle Bronze Age saw the rise of an Indo-European dynasty. It also considers the role of Pithana and his son and successor Anitta in establishing the first great Anatolian empire and the conquests made by the Hittites.
Ancient Near Eastern City-States
Steven J. Garfinkle
This chapter examines the history of the formation of city-states in the Fertile Crescent. It provides a working definition of city-state in both spatial and social terms, and describes the city-state, focusing on the historical periods of early Mesopotamia. The chapter also considers the ideology of the city-state, the administration of an integrated economy, the emergence of kingship and institutions of government, and the replacement of the city-state system with territorial kingdoms.
Archives, Documents, and Legal Practices in the Greek Polis
Michele Faraguna
This chapter explores the importance of writing in the legal practices of the Greek poleis. After discussing writing materials and kinds of documents, illustrating the different functions documents on the same media could have and the problems in tracing ancient archives and reconstructing the role they played in the mechanisms of public administration, it concentrates on two case studies: written records concerning land transactions (in particular registers of sales) and the role of written documents in Athenian judicial procedures. It argues that the impact of written documents on the legal sphere and in establishing fair social relations within the polis was much more significant than is generally recognized.
The Athenian Reconciliation Agreement of 403 bce and its Legacy for Greek City-States in the Classical and Hellenistic Ages
C. Joyce
This chapter surveys amnesty agreements throughout the Greek world in the Classical and Hellenistic ages and argues that in many the principle of political forgiveness was both important and necessary when reconciling communities in the aftermath of civil conflict. The most successful amnesties were those which made use of the law and prohibited the revisiting of old grievances which led to or stemmed from a period of internal strife. Where and when exceptions were made to this rule they normally had to be spelled out in the terms of a treaty. The methods by which individual cities put this principle into effect varied widely, but the most famous and enduring example, the Athenian amnesty of 403 BCE, illustrates that a community could only successfully reconcile if its citizens were willing to forgo vindictive instincts which otherwise would have destabilised it. Robust procedures were put in place to restrain vengeance and protect the rights of individuals.
Bronze Age Greece
John Bennet
This chapter examines the history of state formation in ancient Greece during the Bronze Age, providing an overview of the nature of the Minoan states and the extent of control exercised by Mycenaean states. It describes the key features of the states in the Mycenaean period, which include state structure and organization, palatial centers, military organization, economic organization and administration, and systems of communication and representation.
Walter Ameling
This chapter examines the history of state formation in Carthage, explaining that the history of the Carthaginian state is one with a changing constitution, with new institutions emerging and old institutions losing importance. It investigates why Carthage did not go the way of many other poleis like those in Greece. The chapter also argues that the end of Carthage is inextricably bound up with the question of Roman imperialism and that while its ruling aristocracy died with its city, there was no doubt that the Carthaginians had identified themselves with their city, its history, and its traditions.
Child and Parent in Roman Law
Ville Vuolanto
This chapter concentrates on the issues in which the Roman jurisdiction of the Empire intervened in the relationships between parents and their (minor) children. It discusses the ownership and use of the property of the children, the consequences of legal incapacity of the children, guardianship, limits of patria potestas and filial and parental duties. Children were to be constantly under someone else's authority. This meant not only restrictions in managing property, and in incapacity to represent oneself or others, but also some privileges. Moreover, while patria potestas was an important tool in organising family finances, in propagating Romanness and proper family relationships during the Roman Empire, it was not without limits. The powers of the fathers were balanced by the requirement of pietas between parents and the children.
Collegia and their Impact on the Constitutional Structure of the Roman State
Jonathan S. Perry
Focusing on a few key passages, derived principally from law codes and literary sources, this chapter sketches out the legal situation of collegia vis-à-vis "the state". However, this material is weighed against the rich epigraphic evidence (i.e. inscribed documents) that suggests the widespread and, in practical effect, unrestricted nature of Roman associations. It suggests that the appearance of governmental interference and regulation, from the late Republic throughout the Principate, was itself merely a pretext, as the government continued to encourage the development and proliferation of collegia as a means of social and political control. It questions whether the senate and the emperors had an interest in actually regulating and licencing collegial assembly, and whether legal texts can be reconciled with the inscriptional material attesting extensive collegial organisation, particularly in Italy and the Empire's western provinces.
Constitutional Law in the Greek World
P. J. Rhodes
This chapter discusses public law and the political institutions in the Greek poleis and other political units. The first part surveys modes of citizenship with a focus on political participation. The second provides an extensive account of deliberative bodies and procedures in the Greek poleis. The third section discusses officials, their appointment and duties, and their accountability.
Contracts, Commerce and Roman Society
Roberto Fiori
The Roman law of contract has developed itself around the idea of obligation. At the beginning of its history, transactions were possibly differentiated only at an economical level, while from the juristic point of view only the obligatio mattered, so that the judicial remedies were general actions. This was probably a legacy of archaic law and society—which valued community more than the individual—some features of which were retained until the end of the Republic. However, changes in civil procedure caused the arising of a contractual system based on typicality, and this had the further consequence that the transactions not received into the system were considered atypical, their protection being provided by the reuse of the ancient general actions under new form. At the end of the Principate, changes in society and civil procedure reduced the importance of typicality, and some characteristic features of classical contract law were lost.

When I was a kid, growing up in a house with Cat Stevens, Neil Diamond, and Simon and Garfunkel, the first time I ever heard Kiss's "Detroit Rock City," it was a moment of musical epiphany. It was just so vicious, aggressive and mean. It changed the way I listened to music. I've had a few minor epiphany's since then, when you come across a band that just brings something new and revolutionary to your ears. What have been your musical epiphany moments?
Bert: One of the most profound musical epiphanies in my life was hearing Sleep's Dopesmoker for the first time. To me, that song/album just proves that there are no rules or boundaries when you're riffing out. You can make it as long, as loud, as heavy as you want and people will still be able to connect to it. You can just do your own thing and if it's good, people will get it. Maybe not all the people, but the right people will.
Kevin: For me it was hearing Tool's Aenima for the first time. It was literally the first album I ever bought. The heaviness, the odd time signatures, the melodies, … it really all came together. None of my friends at that time were listening to that kind of music, and I loved it even more just because of that!
Sam: I know this is going to get some frowning but hearing Metallica's Saint Anger for the first time was a kind of epiphany for me. Many people hate it, but I love it haha!
Jeroen: The first time I heard Neil Young's solo in 'Like a Hurricane' it sent shivers down my spine. He makes his guitar speak with so much pain and sorrow in its voice. It made me realise the power of music and the way it can be used to translate emotions and feelings.
Talk to us about the song-writing process for you. What comes first, the idea? A riff? The lyrics? How does it all fall into place?
Jeroen: We all bring riffs and ideas to the table, it's not like we have a single person writing the songs. Then we discuss and everyone has input on each other's ideas and we see where it goes from there. We take our time to get everything just right. As long we're not all convinced every part is 100% spot on we keep thinking, adjusting. That makes for a slower process, but on the other hand we know that if all four of us are sure a song kicks ass, it really does.
Sam: When we wrote our debut album, Viper Vixen Goddess Saint, we had the songs roughly finished and then thought about how we could fit the parts of the puzzle in such a way that the total would be more than the sum of the parts. We really wanted the album to feel as a whole, not just a collection of tracks. Transitions, building and releasing tension throughout the album, that kinda stuff is important to us too. With the new album we're writing now, we have sort of a background story to work with. It helps to focus our ideas and choose directions, but it's still loose and vague enough for us to be able to fit in a great idea that seems to want go somewhere else entirely.
Jeroen: Lyrics are usually the last step in completing the song, I often only finalize on them days before recording, or even in the studio.
Who has influenced you the most?
Kevin: I don't have one particular guitar player or band that I admire the most. What really influences me most are musicians that are able to convey emotions, whatever emotion that may be really… When I'm listening to Rage Against The Machine or Nine Inch Nails for instance, I can really hear the outrage and aggressiveness in the music and lyrics. It's genuine, it's awesome. Kyuss just oozes cool. Frusciante's ability to let his strat really weep ... Layne Staley's vocal melodies bring chills down my spine, even after listening to their entire catalogue a zillion times. I'm also a sucker for big, epic, larger than life songs. Mastodon's song The Last Baron comes to mind, or The End by The Doors, and anything Tool has ever made should be mandatory in any music class. If any band has influenced me the most, I would say that has to be Tool.
Where do you look for continuing inspiration? New ideas, new motivation?
Kevin: When sitting down with my guitar to write new riffs, I kinda always start out by wondering what kind of song I want to make. I very often work with images. For instance, what kind of music would I like to hear when cruising through the desert? Or what kind of music would fit a scene with an astronaut floating through space for all eternity, fully aware of the impending doom he brought upon the world? Or what riffs and solo's would be appropriate for a raging mammoth coming down the hill? I'm very happy with how we nailed that last example on the album.
Sam: I always try to come with something new, try some grooves that I haven't played before and that no one would expect.
Bert: A cool riff, a great groove, a good melody … hearing great music motivates me to make music … And seeing how easy it is to discover great new music nowadays, I'm basically always motivated :-). We're all a product of our environment. Tell us about the band's hometown and how that reflects in the music?
Kevin: We're all from different places in the Belgian province of West-Flanders, but I guess you could say the band's hometown is Ghent. Ghent is actually a really nice place. It's an old city, with a medieval center, but there are a lot of young people that stick around after they graduate from university/college which makes for a fresh, youthful atmosphere. Music-wise there's a lot going on in all sorts of genres, there are places where you can go see a metal band on one day and then the next day there's an electronic pop band on the stage. I guess you could make the point that our music also mixes different influences in an effort to keep things new and fresh.
Where'd the band name come from?
Bert: The insatiable fire in the loins of a drummer Jeroen and I used to play with back in the days. Then sometime later, we found out it was actually a Steven Segal movie, but at that point we didn't want to abandon the name. Then later still, we found out that it's also the name of a porn flick. Guess that just proves there's a certain ring to the name.
You have one chance, what movie are you going to write the soundtrack for?
Kevin: Lost Highway by David Lynch. A true masterpiece that defies definition. It's such a distorted picture that you can literally go anywhere with the soundtrack. Creepy, check. Fuzzed out, check. Doomy, check. Jazzy, check. But the soundtrack already has Bowie, Trent Reznor, Rammstein and Marilyn Manson on it, so it'd be a pretty tough challenge to do better than that ;-)
You now write for a music publication (The Ripple Effect?). You're going to write a 1,000 word essay on one song. Which would it be and why?
Bert: I would choose the song 'Simple Things' by the Belgian band Cowboys & Aliens. They were the first Belgian band to explore music in the style of Kyuss. They're pretty damn amazing, but they never quite got the major breakthrough they deserved. Do yourself a favor and go listen to their album 'Love Sex Volume' (it's on YouTube), you will not be disappointed!
Come on, share with us a couple of your great, Spinal Tap, rock and roll moments?
Jeroen: One time, during an afternoon gig in a bar, an old lady walked in with her dog. She approached the stage, gleamed at us for a few seconds, then started yanking out cables at random. She called us hellspawn and minions of Satan and claimed our music was terrifying her dog. After she was removed from the stage by the bar owner she hung around complaining some more, until we started blasting out riffs even louder. The dog seemed to be doing just fine, but granny threw one last fit, then finally left. Twenty minutes later, just as we were finishing our set, the cops dropped in. Turns out she had called the police and told them we had harassed her dog and attacked her. Things were settled quickly though, with the bar owner and a couple dozen of witnesses backing us up.
Tell us about playing live and the live experience for you and for your fans?
Bert: The best gigs that I've seen, and what I'd hope to achieve when playing live, is where band and audience can feed off each other's energy and trip on the music together. There's some kind of communal sensation when all those heads are bobbing up and down in sync with the grooves.
What makes a great song?
Bert: A great song is one where, the first time you hear it, your jaw drops and you go blank, just trying to soak it all in. Then when it's finished, you think "I don't know what the hell that was but I need to hear it again right now" and hit the repeat button for the rest of the day.
What piece of your music are particularly proud of?
Kevin: I really love all of our songs. Perhaps I connect the most with Universes Crumble due to it's more psychedelic nature, and because we really take our time to build to a climax that I think is really awesome. On a personal level, I'm also pretty stoked about the solo's in The Mammoth, as they all are one-take and completely improvised on the spot in the studio. It was the end of an intense day of recording and I just let it rip and it felt really good, so that eventually made it on the record.
Bert: I really love how The Mammoth, the last track on our debut album, turned out. It's an intense 11 minute trip that has everything: it's slow and fast, quiet and loud, melodic and dissonant, aggressive and soothing … I'm really proud of that one.
Who today, writes great songs? Who just kicks your ass? Why?
Bert: Any project with John Garcia or Brant Bjork involved will get my undivided attention, they're living legends as far as I'm concerned. I always look forward to any new album Mastodon is releasing. They get a lot of flak with each release for not making another Leviathan or Blood Mountain, but I think they're just an amazing band any way you look at it. The Italian band Ufomammut will be releasing a new album soon, I'm a big fan of those guys. They have their own thing going on, synth-layered psychedelic doom aiming at pure sonic destruction. I've also discovered quite a few great bands going through the Ripple catalogue. Bands like White Light Cemetery and Gozu write kick-ass songs.
Kevin: Trent Reznor can't do anything wrong in my book. Neither can Josh Homme, even though I really prefer early QOTSA over the stuff he's doing right now.
Vinyl, CD, or digital? What's your format of choice?
Jeroen: For me, definitely vinyl. I have been a collector for quite a few years now, and there's something about that crackling vinyl sound that you just don't get with CD's. It's the whole experience of slipping the record out of the sleeve, placing it on your turntable en seeing the needle go down to the grooves that appeals to me. Also, the artwork simply looks better on 12"! Vinyl will withstand the test of time. Only downfall is that I can't fit a turntable in my car.
Whiskey or beer? And defend your choice.
Sam: Well, it's hard not to go for beer since we live in Belgium and we have all these world-class beers available at every corner. But then on the other hand: during our rehearsals it's always and exclusively whiskey.
We, at the Ripple Effect, are constantly looking for new music. What's your home town, and when we get there, what's the best record store to lose ourselves in?
Jeroen: When you're in Ghent be sure to stop at Music Mania, they always have a great selection of rock, psych, stoner and doom vinyl available. They're also really cool guys to chat with.
What's next for the band?
Jeroen: There's a lot happening for us, but we're really counting the days until the Ripple release of our debut album Viper Vixen Goddess Saint in June, especially the limited edition vinyl release. That's just a dream come true!
Kevin: Over summer we'll be playing festival shows in Belgium and the Netherlands, sharing bills with the likes of Monster Magnet, Acid King and some of our heroes that we can't announce just yet. Hard not to get excited over that!
Sam: We're also working hard on a new album, which is scheduled for recording in October. We're returning to Much Luv Studio, where we recorded our debut, because we had so much fun there and Tim De Gieter is such a cool guy to work with. So we're really looking forward to that as well. The new album should be available around April 2018.
Any final comments or thoughts you'd like to share with our readers, the waveriders?
Sam: We were amazed to see how quick people all over the world embraced our music. When we released our album in September we were hoping to score some nice local gigs, maybe get a few reviews … It's still overwhelming to think how well the album has been received. We are extremely grateful for the support!
Jeroen: It's still hard to believe that we're part of the Ripple family now. Great things are happening and we promise the best is yet to come! Peace and love to all of you, and keep it fuzzy!

It's weird walking someone else's dog. You don't know their personality so it's hard to judge when the dog really needs to go in a certain area or when they are just jerking you around.

It's done! Unisonic started today the tour to promote their debut album in Argentina at Teatro Flores! This is the first leg of this tour which has four shows in South America; Argentina (done 12th), two shows in Chile (15th and 16th) and Brazil (18th) and then another show in Mexico (20th).
The band shared stage with the "very special guest" band Gotthard – they will be their partners in most of the dates in this tour – and also the guests for this show in Argentina; the Mexican band Conjuro and the band Resist. Unisonic closed the show at 23:15 with a performing of 90 minutes (more or less).
Brigitte review
Brigitte little comments about the show: "After an half hour break, Unisonic entered the stahge at around 21:45. They gave 100% from the beginning and you could see that did a lot of practising. It was the first show with all the new material, but everything seemed tight arranged and very professional. Michael's voice was better than every and he didn't need any paper on any song. Maybe a little more interaction with the audience could be done for future shows. You could also see, that most Argentinian people didn't know most of the Unisonic songs. This is quite understandable, since the album was not yet released there. So when the first Helloween track "March of Time" started, the audience went crazy and jumping up and down."
As you can see, they played almost the whole Unisonic album, except the song 'No One Ever Sees Me' (very difficult to play live with all those orchestration) and the Japanese bonus track 'The Morning After'. And they also played three old tracks of Helloween's Keeper Of The Seven Keys which were written by Kai.

Neurotransmitter, also called chemical transmitter or chemical messenger, any of a group of chemical agents released by neurons (nerve cells) to stimulate neighbouring neurons or muscle or gland cells, thus allowing impulses to be passed from one cell to the next throughout the nervous system.
The following is an overview of neurotransmitter action and types; for more information, see nervous system.
…the release of a single neurotransmitter. At neurons of the central nervous system, on the other hand, the situation is more complex. Each central neuron has several synapses with other neurons at various locations, such as on the dendrites, soma, and initial segment of the axon. Several neurotransmitters, therefore—some excitatory…
Neurotransmitter signaling
Neurotransmitters are synthesized by neurons and are stored in vesicles, which typically are located in the axon's terminal end, also known as the presynaptic terminal. The presynaptic terminal is separated from the neuron or muscle or gland cell onto which it impinges by a gap called the synaptic cleft. The synaptic cleft, presynaptic terminal, and receiving dendrite of the next cell together form a junction known as the synapse.
When a nerve impulse arrives at the presynaptic terminal of one neuron, neurotransmitter-filled vesicles migrate through the cytoplasm and fuse with the presynaptic terminal membrane. The neurotransmitter molecules are then released through the presynaptic membrane and into the synaptic cleft. In milliseconds, they travel across the synaptic cleft to the postsynaptic membrane of the adjoining neuron, where they then bind to receptors. Receptor activation results in either the opening or the closing of ion channels in the membrane of the second cell, which alters the cell's permeability. In many instances, the change in permeability results in depolarization, causing the cell to produce its own action potential, thereby initiating an electrical impulse. In other cases, the change leads to hyperpolarization, which prevents the generation of an action potential by the second cell.
The termination of neurotransmitter activity happens in several different ways. The molecules may diffuse out of the synaptic cleft, away from the receptive cell. They also can be taken back up into the presynaptic terminal via transporter molecules, or they may be metabolized by enzymes in the synaptic cleft.
Types of neurotransmitters
Different types of neurotransmitters have been identified. Based on chemical and molecular properties, the major classes of neurotransmitters include amino acids, such as glutamate and glycine; monoamines, such as dopamine and norepinephrine; peptides, such as somatostatin and opioids; and purines, such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Some gaseous substances, such as nitric oxide, can also act as neurotransmitters, as can endogenous substances known as trace amines, which are related chemically to the monoamines; examples include tryptamine and the phenethylamines.
Acetylcholine, a substance synthesized by neurons, is the primary neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic nervous system, which controls smooth muscle contraction and blood vessel dilation and slows heart rate. The major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the nervous system is GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), which acts to dampen neuronal activity.

The 4-inch-high drawer is 14.5 inches wide and 11.25 inches deep (front to back), so big enough to handle your silverware, cutlery or favorite tools and utensils. Or load it with placemats and table linens, if you prefer. Place larger items such as mixing bowls, serving platters and baking sheets down below, in the cart's cabinet. It too is plenty large, measuring roughly one and one-half feet across, two feet high and one foot deep. It comes with a shelf you can adjust to allow either 14-3/4 or 17-1/4 inches of clearance from the bottom of the cart.

You're cinematic, razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones
How rich in contrast
Love can be
Sometimes I'm quite amused
To see it twist and turn
To taste both sweet and dry
These vintage years
Lovers you consume, my friend
As others their wine
I'm broken open
Fragile heart, tapered kiss
I hate missing you
Wondering what you're doing
All the while correctly suspecting
That you don't give a fuck.
(my own journal)
I was staring at the sky, just looking for a star
To pray on, or wish on, or something like that
I was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy
Whose reality I knew, was a hopeless to be had
But then the dove of hope began its downward slope
And I believed for a moment that my chances
Were approaching to be grabbed
But as it came down near, so did a weary tear
I thought it was a bird, but it was just a paper bag
Goodbye my almost lover, goodbye my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be
So long my luckless romance, my back is turned on you
Should have known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do.
*Lyrics – in order: Snow Patrol (You're All I Have), Radiohead (Bitter Sweet), Fiona Apple (Paper Bag), A Fine Frenzy (Almost Lover)

It is no wonder that so many artists live and work along the coast of Nova Scotia where they derive inspiration and rich subject material for their art.
This year's fun three-day event highlights the beauty of the shorelines, towns, fishing villages, and heritage of Peggy's Cove. Artists from several provinces will be bringing brushes, oils, watercolours, pastels, pencils and setting up on the rocks, wharfs and park areas to create new works inspired by this unique Nova Scotian community.
Soak up the process, and fall in love with a painting! This is an opportunity to watch artists at work and to talk to them about the artistic process.
PLEIN AIR PAINTING at PEGGY'S COVE
Artists will be on site all three days: Saturday 13th, Sunday 14th, and Monday 15th of July, between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Once complete, each day's works, as well as studio pieces by the same artists, will be on view and for sale in a large Mongolian yurt (round tent) located a short walk from the Peggy's Cove lighthouse.
The children's art tent located next to the yurt in Peggy's Cove, will offer free creative activities. This year entertainment will also include demonstrations by local artisans in jewellery, pottery, woodworking and sculpture.
Registration will be opening in March, 2019.

Motivating students to learn their note-reading
I got a letter on my desk last week and it really made my day. It was from a student who thanked me for teaching her how to read notes. She said in the letter that she had been taking piano lessons for 5 years and had always been struggling with reading notes. She thanked me for not giving up on her.
Since reading that letter, I have been thinking about what made the difference for this student to begin reading notes. What did I do that helped her? I truely believe that the biggest factor is getting students to memorize their notes is convincing them to do it. Ultimately, students must DECIDE to memorize the notes...I just have to motivate them to do it.
I have a note-reading book that I use and I believe the book teaches students the logic of the staff and how to figure out notes if they come across a note they do not already know. It is the first step to getting students to read notes...but students need more than a workbook.
From the beginning of the year, I was continuously targeting students who were struggling with note-reading. We did many exercises and games to encourage memorization. I also had students make flashcards and pass them off in under one minute. I taught students exactly HOW to memorize notes using flashcards and let them know that anyone can read notes if they memorize them the way I show them. Here's how we do it:
Students have a few flashcards to memorize (I like to do 4 at a time). Students say the note name on the card, AND they must pluck the note on their instrument. Once students have all of the flashcards on the D and A strings, they must pass them all off by naming and plucking in under one minute. Students can do this in just one week if they practice their flashcards 5 times per day and I show them that it only takes a short amount of time to practice them.
There are quite a few students to begin in my class with a knowledge of note names because they already play the piano. These students have a bit of a head start and I use these students to quiz my true beginners.
I also tell my students stories about me learning notes to different instruments in college and how I learned the notes quickly. I constantly encourage.
We begin class with lots of rote playing. I don't use much out of the method book for awhile, but to get kids used to reading notes, I like to turn to the first note reading pages. Even while doing rote activities through most of class, students can spend the last 5 minutes learning and reading ONE note - like open D. Students need to be introduced to notes slowly, one at a time so that it won't be overwhelming.

My Chinese Coach for DS
Tags: DS, Chinese Coach, Nintendo, Game
Hey everyone,
I thought I'd share a great study toy (I mean, tool!) I found recently. For those of us playful enough to have a Nintendo DS, or whose kids have one we can steal, there's a great new game out called "My Chinese Coach." It's put out by Ubisoft. My understanding is the company wanted to have it out in time for the Olympics, but couldn't quite make it. Thankfully they didn't rush things to meet a deadline - this game is great!
I'll review it a little bit here for those who are interested. First, this is really a study tool, and while those of us who are hopelessly addicted to Chinese will enjoy using it, it's probably not something a 5 year old would want to spend hours with. The game begins with a vocab placement test (which actually placed me further ahead than I belonged!). After this you progress to the lessons. Each lesson has approximately 10 new words, which it also puts into phrases for you. At each level, you must play games to gain "mastery" points for each word before the game allows you to move on to the next level.
Learning games include flashcards, a "whack-a-mole" game where you must recognize the correct characters very quickly, a fading characters game (where you practice drawing words), and many other games, some of which are unlockable as you progress.
Each word you learn has three parts: listen, speak, and write. "Listen" allows you to hear a native speaker pronounce the word/phrase correctly. "Speak" allows you to listen to the native speaker, record your own voice saying the word, then compare. You can even play your voice and the native speaker's at the same time to listen for minor differences! "Write" allows you to practice writing each character. You can trace over the computer's character using your stylus, or write it yourself and have the digital copy show up over yours to compare. Correct stroke order is also emphasized.
Last but certainly not least, the game includes a great dictionary (searchable by English or pinyin) and an amazingly comprehensive phrasebook (searchable by topic or keyword). Everything has native pronunciation with it. I believe the game has a database of around 15,000 words (?), and from what I've heard will take you through 1,000 levels (at approximately 10 words each, that's 10,000 words you'll know how to speak, write, and use!).
The only downside in the game is that the characters are drawn by the program much too quickly, so that I have to watch again and again and again in order to figure out the stroke order. This isn't a huge problem, nor should it keep someone from getting the game, but I thought I'd mention it. Also, the game only teaches simplified Chinese, not traditional, if that's important for you.
If you're interested, the cheapest I've found the game online is at newegg.com. Click here for the link. At $27.99, it's not cheap, but well worth the cost imho. Feel free to ask me if you have any questions - I'll do my best to answer them.

Greetings Everyone and Happy late summer!
It has been an incredibly busy and productive summer for me...so much so that I've had to focus on simply DOING whatever was in front of me and forget about any writing or blogging about what I was working on, at least in that moment. I could barely get a few of the photos processed before it was back in the saddle for another adventure.
In addition, I had noticed that my next post was going to be post #400 so I wanted it to be something a little special.
It will take some time to get all the new out, but for now, let's celebrate the moment with one of my favourite little houses of the season, the Golden Birch Moss house. This house is made from a most amazing and unique piece of Golden Birch that I found in the woods this spring. Delicate, ferny moss had grown into the bark and gave it a wonderfully aged appearance. I collected as much usable material as I could and built this wee house that has definite Hobbit roots!
In the first image I used real, living Lily blossoms for the roof. A dear friend had the most astonishing lilies this summer... they were HUGE and I could not resist using 2 blossoms for a roof. I wish I could have bottled the fragrance for you as well... it nearly made me drunk with the Spirit of High Summer!
A few days later I had the same house with me as I was up in the mountains on a scouting mission and I found an incredible location full of wild blueberries. I had made a frame for the roof but had not covered it yet. A nearby Hazel tree offered up some leaves and I had JUST enough time to shingle the roof and set up the house in the blueberries before the sun sank below the misty mountains...
Here we get closer to the house just as the sun is setting. The door handle is made from a Grape vine tendril and 3 dried tree fungus make the walkway thru the Club moss to the front door. Time for a cuppa tea methinks!
And finally, a week later, when the producer/cinematographer from Mountain Lake PBS was here, I set the house up again in this little mossy nook which happens to be on the edge of my ceremonial stone circle. This time I used Hosta leaves to do a demonstration which he filmed. The Hosta leaves draped beautifully and added gorgeous frosted edges to each "shingle" as they were layered on. We had to wait many minutes for the earth to turn so the beautiful shadow fell on the stones, but the wait was worth it!
So stay tuned.... I have more houses to share, news and links about a new calendar, new cards which are at the printers right now as I type and more to say about shooting the video footage with Derek Muirden for the PBS piece he is doing on my work. There are other things to share as well, but for now, let me take a moment to thank each and every one of you who comes to thee pages and who enjoys,shares and supports what I do.... I simply could not do this work without you. Thank YOU for sticking with me on this crazy, magical adventure!
BRIGHT Blessings all around you and yours!!!

Here's a curious thing.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov spoke to NBC News and floated the idea that Trump and his boss Vladimir Putin may have met more than the two times we already know about during the G20 meeting.
Actually, Lavrov began by saying they met "three times" which would be news itself.
"They might have met even much more than just three times," he told NBC News' Keir Simmons in an exclusive interview, dismissing speculation about the leaders' meetings.
"Maybe they went to the toilet together," he joked.
Lavrov went on to compare Trump and Putin's private chats to children talking to each other at school, saying the two of them spoke like kids in kindergarten.
He was seemingly trying to downplay the gravity of their conversations, but I find it curious that he would even the float the idea that they shared more private moments than we previously knew about. That's not an accident or simple anecdote.
I'm reminded that the only reason we obtained photos of Trump's meeting in the oval office with Lavrov and the former Russian ambassador (pictured above) is because the Russian foreign ministry published them. No members of the American press were allowed into the meeting but one Russian photographer was present.

Watch how to make this recipe.
Combine the yeast, bread flour, 1/4 cup toasted, uncooked oats, and the salt in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
Combine the leftover cooked oatmeal, warm water, agave syrup, and 1 tablespoon of oil in a large mixing bowl. Add the dry mixture to the cooked oatmeal mixture in 3 installments and mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon after each addition.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead by hand for 10 minutes, incorporating more flour, if needed. Dough will be sticky. Put the dough in a lightly oiled bowl or container. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Punch down the dough, shape it into a loaf, and put it into a lightly oiled 9 by 5-inch loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine the egg yolk and water in a small bowl. Lightly brush the top of the loaf with egg wash and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon toasted, uncooked oats. Bake until the bread reaches an internal temperature registers 210 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 55 minutes to 1 hour. Remove the loaf from the pan to a cooling rack for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

oh what a week...
It hasn't been good.
I hate getting in arguments with people and everyone picks a side to be on.
I don't like feeling against people and I don't like feeling that people are against me.
But that's just how it is for right now.

i don't understand why...
Why do people (unc fans) hate Greg Paulus SO much?? I do not get this. They use to all hate J.J. Redick, which I also didn't really understand either but he was monstrously talented (and very cute!) and I guess people don't like that very much. Is it because he plays for Duke? People LOVE to hate Duke. Yesterday one of my friends on Facebook status update was "loves to hate Greg Paulus." This person is not from North Carolina and didn't not attend UNC so why all the hating??? Maybe because he excelled in two sports and people are jealous? He was a highly recruited quarterback coming out of high school but choose to play basketball instead. Now he is considering playing a year of football at Michigan. Don't how that works but I say good for him!
I don't what anyone says,
I heart you Greg Paulus.

Goods things on a Tuesday
1. Lunches with my Mom and Carrie. I love being able to get lunch with friends during the week! It just makes the day so much better.
2. The Lonely 1 by Wilco. Sort of obsessed with this song. It's so lovely, sweet and sad.

When Henry VIII's Palace of Westminster was destroyed by fire, Cardinal Wolsey offered him the use of St. Bride's Well Palace, his bishop's palace built near modern-day Fleet Street. The king accepted. All was well until the Cardinal decreed that only the Vatican could rule on the issue of annulling Henry's marriage to Catherine of Aragon (his first wife whom he was trying to dump in favour of Ann Boleyn). Henry, and his court, left the bishop's palace in a fit of anger and it fell into disrepair and disrepute. Over time the Saint part of the name was dropped and the buildings became a prison. Subsequently any police station with cells could be called a bridewell but the term has largely fallen out of use.
At one time Liverpool had ten bridewells and the Liverpool One Bridewell features in the recently published book "111 places in Liverpool that should not be missed". Sadly, if you haven't been there yet you have missed it because the restaurant which occupied it has closed down.
More recently the building became a restaurant and you entered the courtyard behind the blank brick wall to find it occupied by outside tables.
Inside you were guided from the bar down a narrow dark corridor off which the cells had been made into little dining spaces with barred windows.
Upstairs were the officers' quarters as the policemen lived on site and the rooms had larger windows. This space was made into a large function room.
On one of his visits to Liverpool, Charles Dickens enrolled as a special constable for a night and toured the docklands and Liverpool's less salubrious areas with the Superintendent of Police. He is alleged to have been accommodated in the Bridewell overnight.
Despite the notice suggesting it was now open 8 days a week (well almost). the Liverpool One Bridewell closed down in 2016 and the building resumed the look it had in the 1960s shot above. It awaits a new owner and a new enterprise.

Book Blogger Fair Guest: Noree CosperPosted: 7.22.2013 by Cole Knightly Labels: blogger book fair, guest post
History of Vampire Hunters
We all know of Van Helsing and his cadre of vampire hunters. I loved them so much that I've created Van Helsing's descendants in A Prescription for Delirium. Buffy was "the chosen girl in all the world to fight the vampires." The Winchester brothers didn't do a bad job when they faced off with the leeches as well. But these came from the myths and beliefs of the existence of vampires. Where people believed, there were hunters.
So several cultures, especially those in the Balkans had specialized vampire hunters for destroying the hellish creatures. The most famous were dhampirs, the sons of vampires and usually gypsies. If you like anime, think Vampire Hunter D, or if you like video games, think the Castlevania series. The dhampir was believed to have special powers in detecting and destroying vampires.
Usually a dhampir would start out in a village claiming he could smell something foul. He would attempt to locate the invisible vampire, perhaps by using the sleeve of his shirt as a telescope. Once he found the vampire her would engage and dramtic hand-to-hand fight or shoot it. When it was killed it usually smelled worse and sometimes there was a bloodstain. Yes, this sounds a bit spoony. (Oh, spoony means suspicious.)
The vampirdzhija or djadadjii of Bulgaria operated on a more traditional fashion. They would locate the grave that held the vampire's body by using an icon or holy picture. Then they would impale the body or burn the body.
Now, Eastern Europe wasn't the only region to be overtaken by the vampire craze. In the late 1800's vampire kits were sold to superstitious travelers for their safety as they traveled through Europe. They contained bibles, crosses, stakes, silver bullets, and glass vials that contained concoctions that supposedly warded off vampires. One such was used in 1890, by a man named Andrew A. Kaufman. He used his kit to kill a vampire that had slain the woman he was betrothed to. He then wrote her mother, telling her he had vanquished the creature.
This wasn't just at the beginning of the century. The Highgate vampire incident happened in London between 1967 and 1983. Sightings of a phantomlike entity were reported in the Cemetery of St. James in the Highgate area of London. This culminated with a girl claiming to be attacked in her room. These sightings caught the attention of Sean Manchester of the Vampire Research Society. Manchester claimed to come across a vampire who he sealed away. He continued his investigation for years until encountered the same vampire again. This time he performed an exorcism and staked the body. He then burned the remains, a slimy, foul substance, along with the coffin.
Know that even if the vampires have hidden in fiction, a few still know they are real. They are out there protecting you so you sleep at night.
A Prescription for Delirium
Ninety years ago, Gabriella di Luca promised to protect the family of her dying lover. She failed to keep that promise. She was too far away to stop the devil that murdered the eldest Van Helsing son. Years later, Gabby learns the devil has resurfaced. She arrives in Hampton, TX, determined to stop the devil before it can lay a bloody hand on the remaining three brothers.
However, madness is spreading through Hampton. She suspects the devil is using this madness to test a drug which has a side effect of demonic possession. Gabby rushes to end the source of the madness only to fall victim to it. For a woman cursed with eternal life, dying is no threat. However, Gabby must stop the devil's plot or risk losing her most precious possession: her mind.

The Women Outside
by J.T.Orinne Takagi and Hye Jung Park
Premiere Date: July 16, 1996
They're called bar women, hostesses, or sex workers and "western princesses." They come from poor families, struggling to earn a decent wage, only to be forced into the world's oldest profession. They're the women who work in the camptowns that surround U.S. military bases in South Korea. In 40 years, over a million women have worked in Korea's military sex industry, but their existence has never been officially acknowledged by either government. In The Women Outside, a film by J.T. Orinne Takagi and Hye Jung Park, some of these women bravely speak out about their lives for the first time. The film raises provocative questions about military policy, economic survival, and the role of women in global geopolitics. Part of POV, broadcast television's only continuing forum for independent non-fiction film, The Women Outside, a co-presentation of the National Asian American Telecommunications Association (NAATA), will air nationally Tuesday, July 16 at 10 P.M. ET on PBS (check local listings).
The Korean War ended in 1953, but 37,000 American troops remain in South Korea to defend against possible invasion from the North in this, the most militarized region in the world. Around each of the 99 bases and installations are camptowns filled with bars, clubs, brothels -- and over 27,000 women. Like migrant laborers, they work long hours for a meager base pay of only 200,000 won ($250 US) a month. The income barely covers food and rent; many become trapped in the camptowns as they struggle to pay off their ever-spiralling debts. Some dream of marrying U.S. military men and getting a fresh start in America. But even for those who find American G. I. husbands, resettling in the United States usually means confronting racism, anti-immigrant sentiments, a new way of life — and even ostracism from the Korean American community. The divorce rate for these Korean-American marriages is a staggering 80%.
It took Takagi and Park months to persuade current and former sex workers to speak out. "It was difficult getting them to talk, and extraordinary that we were allowed to film their faces," says Park. The Women Outside focuses on several women, all of whom share a fierce determination to survive despite the discouraging odds. One of the film's central characters is Yang Hyang Kim, who applied for a job in what she thought was a coffee house, only to be sold to a brothel outside Camp Stanley. She tells her wrenching story on camera with remarkable candor. After her first sexual experience in the brothel, "I felt like dirty woman," she recalls, wincing at the memory. She tried to commit suicide, but another woman stopped her. "Physically I'm not a virgin," she says softly. "But mentally I try to keep my pure heart." When she finally escaped from the brothel, her family rejected her — shamed by her experience. Yang Hyang ended up returning to the camptowns.
The Women Outside also features interviews with representatives of South Korea's women's movement, Korean scholars, and U.S. Army personnel. The film charges that, working together, the Korean and American governments have allowed the camptown entertainment industry to flourish at the expense of countless Korean women. According to the film, priorities are heartbreakingly clear: all prostitutes are forcibly checked every two weeks for venereal disease, and regularly for H.I.V.; the soldiers are not. "If prostitutes and prostitution were really so natural, why does it require so many decisions by military commanders, why does it require so many negotiations?" asks Cynthia Enloe, professor of government at Clark University. Military prostitution, she maintains, "is not natural. It's negotiated -- it's got as long a memo trail behind it as the fanciest weaponry."
For some, the consequences are deadly. Yoon Kum-Yi, a sex worker, was brutally murdered in October, 1992 by Kenneth Markle, a U.S. serviceman stationed at Camp Casey. When Korean women's groups organized massive protests, Markle became the first American soldier ever tried in Korean criminal courts. He was given a life sentence -- though it was later reduced to 15 years.
Yang Hyang Kim is one of the lucky ones. The Women Outside follows her deepening relationship with Todd, a G.I., as they work to accomodate their cultural differences. Eventually, they marry, and Todd is transferred to Hawaii, where Kim, now pregnant, begins the difficult process of adapting to life in America. "My hope is to see my baby," she says. "I want to take him to Burger King or McDonald's and put a crown on his head.... I want to educate myself more. So I can become independent. So I can get a better job so I can afford my boy, my son. And raise him proudly."
The Women Outside is a co-presentation of the National Asian American Telecommunications Association (NAATA), the leading provider and promoter of Asian American film and video for public television. Founded in 1980, NAATA funds, distributes and promotes works on the Asian American experience for public television.
The Women Outside is funded in part by the POV Minority Funding Partnership.
