If you want to make money with your hobby, make sure the price is right. If you expect to earn a living, you should set the price to give yourself a reasonable profit. TO be successful, you will need to first figure in your costs, including labor and time, then include a large profit margin.
Hiking is a great pastime that allows you the chance to enjoy nature and get in shape. Look for local hiking trails and start exploring the wonderful things out in nature. Find a companion, fill your backpack and hike off to somewhere beautiful for lunch.
If you are a football fan, consider turning your love of the game into an interesting hobby. This can be done without actually hitting the field, just by doing fantasy football activities. Just recruit some friends, conduct a draft and follow your team's progress.
If you don't know how to start making money with your hobby, begin by choosing a niche. Consider your natural talents and abilities. Find something that you enjoy doing, but also something that others dislike doing. This can be an excellent starting point.
Want to play in the water? Go surfing! You can buy a cheap surfboard at a secondhand store, and lessons won't cost you much either. Surfing is also a great way to strengthen muscles and gain endurance.
For people who live in certain areas, spelunking can be an option. You have to prepare yourself and know what you're in for. Having a guide can help you stay safe while exploring the caves in your area.
You can include others in your hobby. It's the random things in life that make it special. For example, your hobbies. Let others look at what you're collecting, making, or follow you. Sharing with others lets others see what you love. You will make new friends and learn about new things.
It's a good idea to maintain several hobbies. It is important to be diverse, and having several hobbies can help with that. Pick hobbies which you engage in at different times, such as gardening and skiing.

You'll also be able to display what you get in different ways which can give you something to do when you get home from your trip.
Watch your budget when selecting a hobby. Golf is a fun hobby for lots of people, but it costs a bunch to be able to play on a consistent basis. Collecting cars and guns can be expensive, as well. Hobbies such as these can be quite costly. Have a budget and choose the right hobby that fits within it.
Be sure to maintain an organized hobby area. This allows you to find supplies easily. In addition, you can ensure that you are safe. Getting injured while pursuing your hobby is not fun, and knowing that it was caused by carelessness can be avoided.
Have a garbage can nearby if you take up crafting as a hobby. If you keep your area organized, you'll get more done. A neat work station is also safe. You may cover knives with trash and cut yourself, for example.
To work on jigsaw puzzles as a hobby without tying up your dining room, use a foldable jigsaw puzzle board. Keep the puzzle intact and fold up its sides and then store it flat for your next session. The board will keep each of the pieces in the right spot.
You have to make sure to get all of the supplies needed for your hobby. If you do not, you may not be able to do anything, you may struggle to complete things, you may do things wrong, or you could put your safety at risk. Be sure to do your research into which supplies are needed to ensure safety and enjoyment.
Hobbies usually begin with a talent that is natural. People who are artistic can consider painting. By doing this, you could create a wonderful gift for your loved ones, or you could promote your skills to others and make some money.

Classes in designing a new society (Day 8 of Learning road trip)
September 26, 2011 Leave a comment
The next day I led a workshop for the School for Designing a Society on "How do we know we have population-environment problems? A journey from simple models to multiple points of engagement to contribute to change."
People consume resources and pollute the environment, so the more people, the more environmental problems we have–right? Not so fast! In this interactive workshop you will disturb that simple model. By the end you will be mapping multiple points of engagement through which you contribute to change in your particular circumstances. Along the way, you will consider how people marshal scientific knowledge to persuade others of the seriousness of the population problem, how inequalities among people qualitatively alter how "we" respond to the title question, how you can bring in social considerations to explain or interpret the directions that are taken in science, and how you can work with a perspective of being partly and jointly responsible for what is happening in society and the environment.
Although we had yet not participated in an SDaS class, the idea was to learn from SDaS'ers response to the workshop. The handout, included at the bottom of the post, had two sections. The discussion was so active during the first section that we didn't get to section II. It was in that section that I hoped to extend a class I have taught many times so as to connect with the SDaS spirit of design what you desire.
That evening we joined in a session, led by Susan Parenti, in which the topic was the "incubation of a new performance ensemble. (They had an ensemble in the 90s, but it dissolved with the death of some SDaS founders. In response to the theme of articulating desirable consequences, someone stated that this would take the form of "Our theater enabled this radical change to happen." My notes include the following points: Show the context of confusion (about what next to do); Pivots from one mode to another; What is the "going backwards" (a theater technique) for the capitalist system? (A schema that seems to be related to this project appeared later on the SDaS blog.)
The next day included a class called The Gaze. That day, people listened to an OpEd from the Nation about the execution of Troy Davis, wrote for 10 minutes then shared their writing. The participants had been active in drawing attention to shortcomings in the judicial process and had clear, powerful thoughts to convey.
"How do we know we have population-environment problems?"
Questions for the audience posed during part I of the session or left for homework:
0. What's your initial answer to the question?
1. On the basis of this science [population data & projections]:
What is to be done?
What more would you like to know than this science shows?
2. On the basis of these projections and given your position in society [on island B]:
What things might you do?
What more would you like to know than the science—the projections—show?
3a. What kinds of places could different people do something now in light of this history [of soil erosion in Oaxaca]?
3b. Pick one of these places/people and on the basis of this history and analysis:
What things might people in this place do?
What more would they like to know about the situation?
4. In what ways, if any, would your answer to 0. change in light of the above sequence of science and its interpretation?
Critical thinking themes about environment, science, and society developed during the session:
A. The analysis of causes and the implications of the analysis change qualitatively if uniform units are replaced by unequal units that are subject to further differentiation as a result of their linked economic, social and political dynamics.
B. Preferences for certain social arrangements and actions are built into the ways nature and society are represented.

II. Multiple points of engagement in intersecting processes
1. Sense of place map
Identify an issue where you are (or want to be) engaged in changing society or the environment. In relation to this issue, create a picture of whatever form occurs to you that addresses the three questions:
* Where am I?
* Where have I come from?
* Where am I going?
2. KAQF chart: What arises from this map that I want to learn more about?
Assumption: In a school, we can emphasize inquiry and learning even we are strongly committed to taking action to make changes. The KAQF chart helps you organize your thinking and inquiries keeping an eye on Actions, i.e., what you might do or propose or plan on the basis of the results.
What do I Know? (or claim to know)
* (Q: How do I Know that? — What is the evidence, assumptions, and reasoning?)
What Actions could people pursue on the basis of accepting this knowledge?
* (Q: Which people or group?)
Questions for Inquiry: What more do I Need to know—in order to clarify what people could do (A) or to revise/refine/support the knowledge claim (K)
How to Find this out? (Methods, Steps..)
* (Q: What alternatives methods are possible for inquiring into this Question? Will my method of research best enable me to Find this out?)
Start with a Knowledge claim OR with a proposed Action OR with a Question for inquiry you wish to consider.
Then fill in the rest of the KAQF that connects with that starting point. E.g., if you entered a proposed Action, then write down what Knowledge claim(s) this Action is based on.
Then move forward to identify Questions for Inquiry that follow and how you might Find out the answer to the Question.
When you have completed all four items—the K, the A, the Q, and the F—as well as you can for one starting point, draw a line underneath this and start another KAQF set.
Do not mix KAQFs from different starting points into one omnibus sequence; that does not help you keep clear how a specific K matches a specific A matches a Q matches an F.
3. Historical scan: Fill in the context in which we will be operating in taking action to make change.
The first step is to think about this context having a past and a possible future and operating on three levels: "local," "regional," and "global." The "global" is the largest view relevant to the project, which may be the world, but may also be the profession. The "local" is the personal perspective gained in the immediate unit [family, workplace, …]. The regional is the specific arena in which the project operates, e.g., the management of water resources [in an environmental context] or the state educational system [in the context of improving school outcomes].) Identify these levels.

Written by Katin for IPCRESS Blog
There was a brief struggle against the porn industry during the 70s. Led by elements of the Feminist movement, they correctly saw this as a sexual/political issue. Andrea Dworkin, one of the most vocal anti-porn Feminists, produced some influential material analyzing the porn culture, but her work was largely undermined by her strident Anti-Male message which led her effort off-track. The problem, of course, wasn't "Men," but the Establishment and its plan to promote porn culture for specific political-cultural purposes. The Feminists appeared to be using the issue of pornography merely as a means to attack Men. This greatly minimized the effectiveness of their argument and blinded them to the coming assault being prepared by the Establishment.
As the 70s came to a close, the porn industry saw itself sitting on the edge of an enormous boom. This boom was to be driven by the emerging video industry, which at this time was still in its infancy. Early videotape machines for consumers were still over $1,000, but with the invention of the cheaper VHS format, they knew it wasn't going to be long before these prices would fall considerably. By the end of the 80s, the industry had settled on the VHS format, machines were affordable, and the pornographic video industry began to hit its stride. But, in order to make this happen, it was necessary to brush aside the remnants of any Feminist opposition. This was cleverly accomplished by transforming the debate on porn, rather than changing anything about pornography itself.
For several decades, pornography was seen as a Womans' issue. A sexual issue. It was capable of producing certain social and psychological effects and was considered exploitive and tasteless. By the end of the 80s, the Establishment had been able to change this from a debate on Sexuality to a debate on Freedom of Speech. Suddenly, pornography was a civil rights issue! And the government was able to establish itself as pornography's staunchest defender. Probably the most illustrative Puppet Theater put on for the masses was the series of lawsuits involving Larry Flynt and Hustler Magazine. Flynt was lionized in the 1997 movie, The People vs. Larry Flynt, which depicted him as fighting against the government and for the rights of ordinary Americans. This highly-romanticized history starred an especially engaging Woody Harrelson as a cute and mischievous Flynt fighting assassins and the Supreme Court. His most famous cases had nothing to do with pornography, however. The Falwell Case was about a libel charge, as was the case involving Kathy Keaton in 1976. His other highly-publicized case was in 1983 relating to his refusal to name a source for the John Delorean/FBI surveillance tapes which he had. Other issues arose out of Flynt's courtroom antics. His endless battle with First Ammendment issues was merely one method which was later exploited to convince people that the real "problem" with pornography was the Constitutional rights of the pornographer to produce and market this material. The nature of what pornography IS was no longer a matter for discussion. The Feminists had not only been obliterated as a threatening force, but their decimated ranks had now been infiltrated by the outstandingly foolish "Sex-Positive Femisnists," who maintained that they had every "right" to enjoy pornography as Men did, and that this entertainment was somehow empowering and liberating. With the opposition now so thoroughly undermined, the porn industry was able to consolidate support within the political and business sectors and raise production to levels never imagined back in the 50s and 60s. At one point during the 90s it was claimed that first-time VCR owners chose a porn movie as their initial rental 75% of the time. Even the decision between Beta and VHS was made on the basis of demands set by the enormous porn-video industry (VHS tape had a much higher Fast Forward speed than Beta: an important feature for viewing porn.)
With the Feminists out of the picture, the Establishment was able to move the "Porn Debate" to more religious grounds. Now, anyone trying to voice objections to the highly-protected porn industry is immediately labeled a "Puritan" or a "Religious Moralist." Of course, the Religious Right have long been dupes for the Establishment, so the "debate" and any possible opposition was now safely contained. These days, any argument against porn has to be twisted into the pre-arranged context provided by politicians, pornographers themselves, or other Establishment stooges; which is that the nature of pornography is simply NOT up for discussion. The socio-political implications of pornography are NOT up for discussion. Of course, any discussion of Aesthetics and taste is entirely NOT up for discussion. All that IS up for discussion are the First Ammendment rights of the pornography industry.
And behind this obviously staged debate between the phony libertines and the religious extremists is a government which has wholeheartedly supported the porn empire every step of the way.

|Black Metal
Ketzer Records
September 25th, 2011
Release length: 44:25
Rust consists of eight tracks, the first of which is meerly an atmospheric introductory track. It isn't until "Chaosophic Horrorcult" that you start to grasp what the band is, though "Omega" sets a nice tone of a dark, horroric group atmospherically. The production to the release is pretty clear, though not crystal like many of today's more well established groups or labels would issue. There's still a slight raw trait to the sound, but not a lot to give the music much more of an edge. The guitars here sound somewhat sharp with a strong Black Metal distortion, though the music is often not the most original for the style, and the bass is there, though greatly dwarfed much of the time by the snares of the drum kit which are perhaps the loudest part of the album, even taking out some of the guitar work due to their compared volumes. The bass kicks aren't that great either, clearly being much louder and, while still having a bit more bass influence to the mix, they ultimately sound more wooden then anything and don't make much of an impact. The snares, though so loud, still sound great, and as do the cymbols which are at a level that is ripe for this rather aggressive Black Metal offering. Vocally, the album is your traditional rhaspier vocal approach, but there's a good amount of energy here behind the performance to work well with all the varying sounds of the album.
The music often seems to have more of a ritualistic sound to them, which can often be felt in the drumming of the recording. "Chaosophonic Horrocult" does a good job establishing this periodically through the song, but the band is not afraid to just go in a more traditional approach to the style, showing shades of later second wave acts in their approach, but a more refined sound that doesn't rely solely on blast beats for every track. "Chalice of Vaus" does incorporate that more modern approach to the style thanks to it's heavier and faster approach that sees blast beat-esque drumming and chaotic guitar work through much of the faster moments, and a dismal, more ritualistic style of atmosphere to the slower moments of the track, though the latter isn't really anything all that special and, in this track, it feels a little tacked on and not necessary to the flow of the track, making it seem like the band is using it to expand on the song's track length in order for it to make the near eight and a half minute mark.
In the end, that does become a bit of a problem for this release. While many songs don't necessarily go into a slower section and feel like it's eating up time, many of the longer tracks seem to just go on a little too long. "Omega" makes for a nice ambient introduction to the release and gives the listener a good idea of what to expect, though the rest of the tracks here don't quite carry that strong an atmosphere, or ever really go back into a similar Ambient-fueled approach to anything including interlude and instrumentals, and the lack of Ambient specific passages really ends up being a good thing here given the more straight-forward Black Metal approach the band is going for. But the problem is that the songs can often feel a bit drawn out and, while intense, not the most engaging of music after a while, leaving listeners to wish the band would have cut some of the songs down. "Chaosophonic Horrorcult" is one of them due to the more ritualistic approach and it's simpler sound. After a while it feels a bit repetitive and doesn't really offer much to the listener after the first few minutes, but this could also be due to the heavy drum focus and how loud they are causing them to really stand out more then they should, drowning out some of the guitars and really making it sound a little more simplified then it possibly is. "Towards Infinity" essentially becomes the culmonation of everything that the band has been working up to. There's some solid ritual-like moments blended with more modern and earlier second wave sounds and intensity with some catchier slow moving passages and a haunting somewhat ambient-driven introduction that lasts for a while and doesn't really get old right away, all keeping the listener engaged throughout the song without feeling like the band isn't beating the dead horse to extend the life of the song.
"Rust" shows what the band is capable of when working within the confines of a shorter track length, and it really proves this theory well that the songs should have been shorter at times. The songs maintains more of a ritualistic sound to it. The track basically just never stops coming at you and offers up enough variety to the mix to keep you attentive the entire time without becoming repetitive. The ending feels a little lacking, but overall the song doesn't leave you listening for a long period of time while half of that time unenthused and feeling like it should have ended a little while ago already. The same can be said for "Kill" and even "Black Maelstrom". Both of these feature better endings and overall just feel more like solid trackis, both not necessarily feeding into the ritualistic driven music either, which really brings out some top-notch mixtures of a more modern Black Metal sound with soem catchy and melancholic early second wave riffs that really stand out nicely, especially during "Kill".
Rust has it's mixture of things working for and against it. Overall, the album is not that bad really, and mixes a good deal of various Black Metal ideas and concepts together, though not all the time successfully. The ritualistic aspects of the album are not the most amazing, and that's largely in part of how loud the drums are and their ability to drown out the other instruments. The band also likes to extend the life of their songs, and sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't, and a strong track ends up feeling like the band is kind of forcing it to go on even though the structure doesn't really allow for such an elongated performance. Really, it's the shorter songs here that show off the band of No Empathy, and they also become the most energetic and enthralling of the songs here, coming from a more basic Black Metal concept then trying to mold together ambient performances, focusing in atmosphere and not really making it strong enough to be noticed, and typically ends naturally and around when it feels right. Rust is a release worth checking out by Black Metal fans, as it does show some promise for this group.

The building of the hostel has been constructed with a cost of Rs180 million, funded by Higher Education Commission (HEC). The three-storey building has 100 rooms to accommodate nearly 200 students of the college.
The HEC had provided the said amount of fund for the construction of two buildings including Institute of Nursing and the girls' hostel. City Naib Nazim Nasreen Jaleel has inaugurated the said building.
Speaking at the inaugural ceremony, Nasreen said that nearly 62 TB (Tuberculosis) Centres were working in the megalopolis, out of the said figures merely 22 centres were being run under the supervision of City District Government Karachi (CDGK), while DUHS looked after four centres.
She appreciated the development of Dow University and congratulated the Vice Chancellor DUHS and his team for their work and also offered her help whenever required. She asked, after looking at DIMS New Academic Block, the Vice Chancellor to increase the teaching faculty as per requirement of PMDC and for increasing the number of seats.
"This would facilitate our brothers living abroad who would like their children to study in Pakistan and also the local students who have not been successful in seeking seat in Dow Medical College and Sindh Medical College. The teaching and training facility available to the students who have intermediate science qualification is now expanded from just Medical Science to Nursing, Medical Technology, Pharm D and others," she added.
Vice Chancellor DUHS Prof Masood Hameed Khan gave briefing about the developmental work and future programmes of DUHS to the chief guest and audience. He said that introduction of new technologies was a need to train the medical students to carry out the stipulated task, as it was an era of gaining vast knowledge and exploring the new horizons. For bright future, Dow University is really establishing new standards of academic excellence at DUHS and its constituent institutions, he added. Prof Zeenat Ayub, Dean, Dow International Medical College, also spoke on the occasion. The nation
KU Syndicate decided to act against the plagiarists
Karachi: The University of Karachi (KU) Syndicate, in its Saturday meeting, has decided to act against the plagiarists after receiving reports from two retired judges of the Sindh High Court. After many hearings and deliberations, the learned justices have agreed that the said professors had indeed committed plagiarism.
In the case of plagiarism against Prof Jalaluddin Noori, former Dean of Faculty of Islamic Studies, Inquiry Officer Justice (Retd) Haziqul Khairi found him committing plagiarism without any shred of doubt.
In the case against Dr Saeed Arayne and his wife Dr Najma Sultana from the departments of Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Chemistry (Faculty of Pharmacy), respectively, Inquiry Officer Justice (retd) Saleem Akhtar also gave his verdict against the couple after citing all the rules and regulations of the Higher Education Commission (HEC) and KU and reminding the accused the definition of plagiarism.
After the meeting, majority of senior professors expressed their satisfaction that the infamous cases of plagiarism by the three senior faculty members of the university have reached to logical conclusion."It is a shame that someone plagiarises and has the gall to defend it. They should have accepted their mistake and resigned from their posts but they chose to defend their crime. It was very embarrassing for us," said one of the professors while others nodded their assent.
Meanwhile, in another decision, the KU Syndicate has not accepted the suggestion given by a HEC member at the previous Syndicate meeting that the candidates for the post of lecturers should have at least two first divisions. This suggestion, which was not a decision, was taken by a faction of the Karachi University Teachers Society (KUTS) as usurpation of teachers' rights and led to a lot of hue and cry.
Dr Shakeel Farooqui, the incumbent Secretary of KUTS, severely criticised the premature politics of the novices and mediocrities who jumped into the fray to defend the rights of the prospective teachers without realising the real meaning of the matter. The news

Dr Ghulam Ali Allana said this during the inauguration of three-day "8th All Sindh Training Workshop for Child-writers" organised by the Nat-Khat Group of Publications, Hyderabad, at the Sindh Sports Board hostel.

Dr Allana said that Nat-Khat Publication was a ray of hope in the promotion of children's literature in Urdu and Sindhi. He said that the publication had provided a platform to our young writers not only towards their skill development but also in human resource growth.
Regional Director Information Hyderabad, Imdad Ali Keerio while speaking as the chief guest stressed upon the print and electronics media to play their role in encouraging the writers of children's literature.

OUT OF THE WAY! OUT OF THE WAY! by Uma Krishnawami.
Tulika Press is an Indian publishing house and (especially if you are in India!) are unbelievably good value (S$3-$4 for beautiful full-colour paperbacks) A must read about trees, conservation - and the power of story.
FLOOD by Alvaro F Villa - a wordless book! Why use a wordless in a reading programme?! Watch the video and find out!
(Note: the story has nothing to do with the Biblical flood, and all to do with climate change) Look for other wordless books in the KidsRead catalogue: The Window (beautifully shared by Chuah Ai Lin) and Chalk.
THE DARK by Lemony Snickert
with illustrations by Jon Klassen.
One of those books that make the kidsREAD selection outstanding. This one reaches out into unexpected corners and kids' fear of ... the dark. I brought this home and shared it with my son (11 at the time) and he loved it.

With a side of Thursday since I missed a post yesterday. Hey, blogging everyday or at least every other day is a huge task! Ok, maybe blogging inconsequential, mind boggling and plainly harebrained stuff like what you read here is not a colossal task. Right, you win. 1-0.
1. Walking is underrated. Really. It was a tad humid when I stepped out this morning and the 1.5 miles did me good – gave me plenty of time to think about this morning's proposed plan of action aka drafting a sarky email. Ok, I'm being mean.
2. Hanging out in these because the Birkies gave up on me. Warning…scroll down if you wanna skip world's ugliest feet.
3. Pouring outside. Thank goodness! We need some respite from the 35-37 C that's been plaguing us for the past few weeks.
4. #IOMS #DOMS #quads #glutes #Thursday #training #backtobusiness

a) EPIC hack squat (90lbs was cocktails; 290lbs was appetizer; 400-500lbs was mains)

Supersets of:
c) Technogym leg extension (beginning with the last heaviest weight, naturally we hit a record high yesterday)
d) DB walking lunges
e) Technogym leg extension (FTW! FML! Again?!?! High reps on jello legs)

g) Cybex prone leg curl
Single set of:

If you knew somebody you have been relationship was going to interrupt your coronary heart finally, would you retain relationship them? Save your self some probably important ache and anguish by retaining an eagle eye out for the forms of behaviors that point out they're the kind of one that will damage their S.O. Keep in thoughts that taken individually, this stuff won't appear massively problematic, however altogether, they level to one thing deeper. And if this stuff are occurring initially of a relationship, they're virtually assured to worsen in a while.
The behaviors beneath are lifeless giveaways that the individual you're seeing now will probably allow you to down in a serious manner someday.
You're Always Trying to Read Their Mind
Instead of a dialogue about points, your associate acts pissed or provides you the silent therapy in an effort to have you ever guess what they need. "This passive-aggressive behavior locks you out and raises your anxiety, making you feel like a failure for not guessing correctly or forcing you to wonder 'what you did wrong.' It is a way of controlling the other person as a precursor to abuse," says relationship psychotherapist Dr. Fran Walfish.
You're Opposites in Every Major Way
There are occasions whenever you is perhaps interested in somebody since you're fascinated by how completely different you're, says relationship knowledgeable and writer Kevin Darné. "Early on this may seem like an exciting pairing, but as time goes on power struggles are likely to develop as each seeks to change the other." Find somebody who shares your values, desires the identical issues for the connection, and agrees with you (a minimum of on most counts) about pursue and stay out these targets.
They Don't Prioritize You
Work, buddies, the gymnasium, no matter—if this stuff derail your plans or come earlier than you commonly, proceed with warning. "If they aren't interested in integrating into your life or getting to know the people who make up your support network, it's a sign they're not invested in your future together," says therapist Tracy K. Ross.
They're Jealous or Possessive
Often these behaviors could also be thought of cute or flattering to start with of a relationship. "However, over time, these actions can become extremely controlling and possibly include threats and physical violence," says Darné. Bottom line: Spotting stuff like this within the first weeks or months of relationship virtually by no means bodes effectively for a steady, safe, loving relationship in a while.
You Question Their Honesty
A transparent signal you're falling for somebody who will finally damage you is in the event you can by no means make sure in the event that they're forthcoming with the entire fact, says Walfish. And when you is probably not positive, you attempt actually onerous to persuade your self that they're being sincere—even when your intestine and different details point out in any other case. That's by no means a enjoyable feeling, so that you'd be sensible to take a tough take a look at whether or not it's value persevering with to see somebody who you possibly can't make sure is being clear with you.
You Always Take the Blame
If you end up shouldering accountability for points that actually aren't your fault, it's an indication you're falling for somebody who will deal with you worse in a while. "It is an extremely manipulative behavior on the part of the abuser, which stimulates fear, anxiety, guilt, or shame in the vulnerable victim," says Walfish.
You're Not Yourself Around Them
If you might have a tricky time enjoyable and being your self everytime you're with this individual, that's a positive signal a poisonous relationship is on the horizon. "It's virtually impossible to experience long-term happiness when someone is not able to be themselves in a relationship," says Darné. You can solely tiptoe, stroll on eggshells, or go alongside to get alongside to keep away from battle for thus lengthy with out turning into fairly depressed.
You Always Initiate Contact and Planning
"Whenever you find yourself in a relationship where you're always the one initiating contact and coming up with ideas for keeping the romance alive, eventually you'll give up," says Darné. Once you understand you're actually alone in terms of making the trouble to take care of the connection, it's sure to change into painful.
They Remind You of Your Ex
If the individual you're seeing appears eerily just like previous lovers, that's a purple flag. If you continuously date males/girls who allow you to down, discover somebody who breaks your "type." If the phrase "same person, different face" defines your love life, it's time to reevaluate your decisions.
You Haven't Met Their Friends
If you've been relationship for a few months and haven't been launched to their finest buddies, household, or coworkers, they're in all probability not very severe about you and can probably damage you later. "It's even worse if you never spend any time together during the day or engage in activities in public places. Staying in and ordering pizza or other takeout whenever you're together most likely means you're considered a booty call," says Darné.
You Feel Distant from Friends and Family
"Anytime you become completely dependent on one person for love, companionship, and socializing, there's potential for suffering devastating heartache if and when you lose that one person," says Darné. "If your mate has forced you to distance yourself from loved ones for the sake of your relationship, you're being set up for a major fall." Everyone wants an emotional help community that features family and friends outdoors of their main relationship.
They Seem Too Good to be True
Everyone has flaws and imperfections. But be cautious of somebody who appears a little bit too good, particularly in case you have a intestine feeling that he/she is simply telling you what you need to hear, somewhat than an sincere reply that would current problems you'd should cope with as a pair.

Dominion Post, Wellington, 26.03.2013 5 Stars
"The German cellist Daniel Muller-Schott is an exceptional player and a musician of rare insight. This new recording adds to a distinguished discography with playing that is absolutely riveting. … Muller-Schott doesn't displace Rostropovich but offers, instead, a different approach; one that is just as potent, and one supported with playing from the Cologne Radio Orchestra that is marvelously taut and involving. …" » more
Exciting new release from cellist Daniel Müller-Schott
"Daniel Müller-Schott masters the musical breadth and virtuosity of these works in a perfect symbiosis with the WDR Symphony Orchestra of Cologne under its principal conductor Jukka-Pekka Saraste. Every note, every arc of the musical narrative throbs with energy. However much the listener may be influenced by Mstislav Rostropovich's classic recording, this fresh and masterful approach to both works is in no way inferior, but appeals through its inherent musicality, its precise interpretation of the score, and the soundscape which unfolds freely around it.
An incisive and transparent rendition
Müller-Schott's technique in the Prokofiev piece of rising above the orchestral sound again and again in every register of his instrument before fading back into the ensemble, and of rendering the classicistic dance-like passages of the final movement as incisively and transparently as the lyrical lament of the opening melody, is thoroughly captivating. The same interplay between intimate dialogue and symphonic rivalry is achieved to similarly spectacular effect in the Britten piece. The result is a brilliant re-recording of the Cello Symphony in time for Britten's 99th birthday, representing a reverent and – in the best sense of the word – self-assured tribute by a younger generation to its master and mentor. Essential listening!"

"Life doesn't give you bumpers."
I went to see this in the cinema a couple of weeks ago, having heard great things about the movie shot over 12 years of one single boy's life, and the concept intrigued me. Richard Linklater wrote, directed, and co-produced a movie that did not disappoint.
In 2002, a young Ellar Coltrane was cast to play Mason Jr., a six year old who we follow through to the age of 18 when he goes off to college, seeing how his life changes and his experiences and the way he sees the world. We also see other members of his family develop; his older sister Samantha (played by Linklater's daughter Lorelei Linklater), his father Mason Sr. (Ethan Hawke) and, in my opinion, the most heartbreaking character his mother, Olivia, played stunningly by Patricia Arquette. The film follows these characters as they move from small-town Texas to Houston, to San Marcos, through a series of new homes, new step-fathers and bad relationships.
Each character has their own arc, and an arc like no other as the characters age with the actors and the actors use their own life experiences at that time to fuel their character. Ethan Hawke shows as his character goes from a young, smoking, swearing, irresponsible failed musician who lives in a dank and tiny apartment to a responsible father-of-three with a new wife and new stable job, finally becoming the father he should have been all along. Samantha goes from a bratty child who shows off her school grades and always insults her brother's intelligence, to a teenager who is embarrassed by her mother and brother and lives in her own little bubble until she leaves home and goes to college, where she creates a tighter bond with her little brother. Then comes Patricia Arquette playing Olivia, who starts out as a single mother taking classes in college with hopes and dreams, who goes through a series of bad husbands who abuse and mistreat her character, although she remains strong and a good mother to her children, until she becomes the broken character we see in her last scene, crying at the table as her son leaves for college, disappointed in life and saying: "I just wish it could have been better."
Finally, Mason Jr., the boy that it is all about. As the years pass we see him grow, going from a pleasant and inquisitive little boy to a self-conscious kid who grows his hair long, to a teenager with piercings who drinks and experiments with drugs and gets girls, to an aspiring photographer with an intelligent yet negative outlook on life until he finally goes to college and we see, as we reflect on how he has changed in the film, that he has grown up.
Watching these characters change through a couple of weeks of filming a year for 12 years is really something. It's not the same experience as seeing different actors with vaguely familiar features playing different ages, it feels more real, more genuine, and you connect much more to the characters because you feel that yes, you have indeed watched them develop. The random time jumps give us an individual taste of what it is like for Mason to be that age, and the fact that they are unannounced illustrates just how fleeting childhood is, that we have no control over our ageing process and things just happen the way they do.
Boyhood carries you along a journey of childhood, growing up, and emotional change, and I couldn't help but notice the warm and fuzzy feeling in my stomach as I left the cinema, the satisfaction I felt for having seen this film. This film is real art of cinema, and I recommend it to anyone and everyone, because everyone has grown up and everyone should connect with at least part of Mason's 'Boyhood'.
Verdict: 5 / 5 stars, incredible story, excellent acting (even from the very young Ellar Coltrane) and something that really must be experienced.

Benefits Of Hiring Personal Injury Lawyers
Do you sincerely believe that your insurance company will provide you with all the coverage for the damage that you have got from that fateful moment? If all these misgivings and doubts are very perplexing to you, then it is time to seek the services of a personal injury lawyer.

Mother Speaks out on Antibiotic Resistance After Child Taken by MRSA Superbug
Antibiotic-resistant infection took his life in less than 24 hours
antibiotic resistance
Antibiotic drug resistance has become a huge issue, so much so that world leaders passed a declaration aimed at slowing the spread of antibiotic-resistant superbugs, calling it "historical" and "a turning point."And while most of us have heard about these so-called superbugs, not everyone is aware of how quickly it can take away a life. That's why Everly Macario is telling her story about her son's life being taken by an antibiotic resistant strain of MRSA.
Macario's healthy 1-year-old, Simon Sparrow, went from having a routine strep infection to dying within just 24 hours after developing an antibiotic resistant strain of MRSA.
"It's a parent's worst nightmare," Macario says of the 2004 incident. [1]
Young Simon was up-to-date on all of his vaccines and had no underlying health issues, which is what partially stunned his parents. The boy was recovering from strep throat, which made it hard for him to breathe. But his parents, Jim Sparrow and Macario, began to become worried when Simon still wasn't acting himself after a couple of days.
As a precautionary measure, they took him to their local emergency room, but they were told to go home, even though Simon's father remarked that his son's lips had taken on a bluish hue.
But their son wasn't getting any better. Macario says that at one point, she touched her son's face and it was ice-cold. It was then that she called an ambulance where he was rushed back to the hospital.
She says of the incident:
"When we arrived in the emergency room, suddenly it was an onslaught of medical people that just surrounded Simon, and I'm not really sure how they knew this exactly, but they kept repeating, 'your son is very, very sick, your son is very, very sick'." [2]
Read: It's Here – Bacteria Resistant to ALL Antibiotics Shows up in U.S.
Her son was put on a heart and lung machine, but passed away shortly thereafter. At the time, there was no immediate cause of death, so his parents agreed for an autopsy to be performed. The results stated that little Simon had died from a strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
Because of her son's death, Macario is now an advocate with the Infectious Diseases Society of America, and hopes to make every parent aware of these unfortunate possible outcomes.
The United Nations and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) are now working to create a better approach to curb antibiotic resistance so that stories like Simon's are not repeated.

And Away They Go
|Boys, Goose, Jessica, pictures, school, Squirt, Uncategorized | No Comments »Posted in
We had our back to school lunch on Saturday. Lance had too much work so he couldn't go with us, and the little boys, well, their behavior sucked all week so they stayed home as well.
That was fine, it was just me and three of my favorite people having one last meal before school. I had a great lunch with our second grader, junior and senior. I can't believe how fast time flies and that at the end of this year, I'll be heading to Jessica's graduation and prepping for Squirt to be a senior. I have nine months to be stressed about that. For today, I'll just appreciate the fact that these three amazing kids are in my life.
Dear God, watch over them while they are away from their amazing parents! (ha! although really, I am amazing, right, kids???)

After nearly two solid months without a drop of rain, my mind had slipped into acceptance was that we had entered an endless summer. Sun was now forever. It was as if the Pacific Northwest had crossed into some inverse-Game-of-Thrones reality. Summer had come. It was a lasting season. However, instead of White Walkers threatening doom over the horizon, it was wildfires.
There seemed to be no reason to check the forecast in terms of planning a photo session, thus my confidence was shocked when a request to change the day because of predicted rain showed up in my inbox.
Oh yeah, rain is a thing.
Reminded that I was indeed a professional working in the Pacific Northwest, I checked the weather the morning of the shoot. Our meeting was set for 6pm. The hourly depicted a gradual and total engulfing of the sun by 5. Thrilled, I stomped around the house lamenting that my magic evening light would be stripped away. My wife smiled at the drama unfolding in our living room and assured me it would all be fine.
As was standard, the session meant a lot to me. This one in particular was poignant. I had met Diamond and her family at an event with a local pet supply store and while getting a "boop" of her beautiful face her humans had told me it was her birthday week. I had guessed she was 4, maybe 6, and stared blankly after learning it was her 13th year. Her grays were camouflaged in her mostly white coat, but it was her demeanor that had really thrown me off. She brimmed with life. Her eyes shone enthusiasm. Her steps seemed easy, despite having two replaced knees.
The two women, Tina and Tara, who were her family, had exchanged a quick glance, a shift in their expressions. The next announcement had been that Diamond had cancer.
Having had a dog, at one time, in my family who had cancer it was easy to empathize. I remembered the strange juxtaposition of not knowing the balance of time she had left, yet watching her continue to surge with life. It was a confusing knot of feelings, and on the day of the session as 6pm marched closer I pondered them for myself and for the family. The forecast was frustrating. It was cloudy, maybe later to be partly sunny, but wasn't meant to last. Cloudy wasn't going to cut it.
I took credit when, around 3pm, the drab sky broke. I had stared a hole in them from behind the living room window. Loading up and heading for the location was a relief. The sun was still out and my eagerness manifested itself as a heavy gas pedal. Arriving, I was greeted by Diamond herself wedging her way out the front door. She was wide-eyed and all smiles. Her BFF and roomie, Diva, flanked her. Stepping through the house and into the intimate backyard was the beginning of a beautiful hour.
Against all odds, as it felt in my anxious mind, the light was there. The long rays of a falling sun mixed with the faintest particulates of lingering wildfire haze to form a warm, ethereal mist through the air. Pressing the camera shutter was pressing pause on a beautiful moment; a slice of light, time, and emotion.
Tina, Tara, Diamond and Diva allowed me the immense luxury of being there. They are awesome, and it was rad to be hired for such an occasion. The significance certainly wasn't lost on me.

The topic of choosing a school for horn study is a large topic. Any talented horn player will find themselves with several good choices as to schools, but underlying the topic at all is a larger question. Is college level horn study a good idea? I may be biased but I would still say yes. But read on, there are many things to consider.
First, an observation; undergrads are in general not as good at researching horn programs as are graduate students. If you are reading this post as a high school senior you are to be commended as being ahead of the game.
The most important thing to research is the horn teacher. E-mail them; meet them; take a lesson or even a couple lessons if possible. It is a big commitment. If you can't get a reply from them by E-mail this could be a bad sign. A part of my job as a horn professor at ASU is to meet with and recruit prospective students. If a teacher doesn't have time for you now they may not have time later either. Don't be afraid to try to contact horn teachers directly. I know I appreciate direct contact via clearly written E-mails. But note: I am sure occasionally I miss messages! Realize that sometimes they land in the junk mail by accident or sometimes they may have been sent to an incorrect address (at one point there was also a John Erickson at ASU!). So be sure to give the professor a second chance as to an E-mail reply, you may have just caught a bit of Internet bad luck.
In general I recommend schools at the undergraduate level that have full time horn teachers. My feeling is that you will have more interaction with the teacher and it will be the best overall experience. Every program is a bit different, check out a number of schools to see what you are comfortable with. Imagine what it would be like to spend the next four years at this place while you are there.
In general I also strongly recommend going to a school where you won't run up a large debt. I went through undergrad at a small college and at the end had no debt at all! It made an expensive grad school much more possible to attend.
As you are looking at teachers I have found there is one resource that is right at your fingertips but is underutilized. Take the time to read the biography of the horn teacher as posted in the website of the school. It is interesting, you can tell a lot about someone by what they say about themselves. And if the school website is disorganized and hard to navigate this may also be taken as a bad sign.
There are a couple of "traps" to avoid when looking at teachers. One is the "famous teacher" trap, which is that while it is cool to work with someone everyone has heard of at a famous school, not all famous teachers are actually teachers that you would work with well. Teaching styles vary widely. Closely related is the "my way or the highway" trap. Some teachers have a style that is closely oriented around just one way of playing. Which is fine if it works for you but if it does not you may find that you have made a big mistake in choosing that teacher. Better to research it out first. Some teachers, such as myself, are very comfortable working in different styles. My goal is not to make every student a parrot of me but to instead help them to sound as good as possible in relation to the range of possible styles of horn playing.
Visit the campus but keep in mind as you visit yet another mistake I see. Some students will pick schools instead of teachers and programs. Your experience at the school will be very much influenced by your experience with the teacher and the overall music program. Don't just pick a great campus even if you have many people pushing you to attend, make it your first priority to pick a teacher and program.
Performance can be a good undergraduate degree program but you have to be ready to give your best to reach a very high level on the horn and you can't be too far behind going in. Gear up for the audition, for sure take some lessons on the music with a qualified horn teacher. If your audition is not together you won't get in. There really are not a lot of performance jobs out there after you graduate, which is why we must be very selective with performance applicants. In terms of getting a playing job at the end of your degree the trick is to be the best applicant. To make that level you have to be pretty ready to go by the end of an undergraduate degree, at the least playing at a level that you can polish everything up very well during MM study later.
Music education is a great option. For students considering this program I have one standard thing I tell them; the reason to be a music education major is because you would like to be a music educator. Typically the performance requirement in terms of entrance level it is somewhat lower than in a performance program. Many students audition for me for the performance degree that play on a level acceptable for music education but not for performance. But realize that if you don't show that you have a good ear and some potential you will also be rejected for music education. It is not enough to love band and want to be a director, you have to individually show that you have made the effort to reach the highest level you can as a player.
Note also, not all schools require marching band for music education students. ASU in 2012 dropped this requirement.
I also very much enjoy working with music therapy students from time to time at ASU. This is actually a great program, one I would highly recommend if this is an interest of yours. The BA program is also a good fit for some students. Speaking generally, however, it can be an unfocused program and would not be my first choice for a student. Music business can be another good option.
As you look at audition requirements (the requirements at ASU may be found here) remember that really it is much more how you play than what you play. Play music that you are comfortable with and represents the best that you can play. Be ready to play scales (they should not sound like a surprise!) and to sight read. It is OK to mess up some things, as in the end we are listening for and estimating your potential. But with one foot note; be sure you have some contrast of style in what you play as your solo selections. Two different movements of Mozart are a poor choice.
When the time comes that you are nearing the end of an undergraduate program it is time to think about grad school. Grad applicants are much more aware, speaking generally, of what they are getting into than the average undergrad, and are in general I find looking to polish up their playing to a higher level to take auditions for performing positions.
First, read all of what I say above about finding an undergraduate program and do the same homework with respect to looking for a graduate program. Contact potential teachers, take lessons with them, visit websites and schools, etc. Check it all out well; grad school is a big commitment. Also check the audition requirements. They may be less flexible than in undergraduate auditions, the requirements at ASU are here. If coming in you are too far behind on excerpts and solo study the MM may not be an option. Also be aware that we are looking at your undergraduate grades and the recommendation letters in your file. If you had lots of trouble in theory classes in particular this is viewed by many teachers as a red flag.
For many the MM is a degree that is seen as the last and best chance to go after the dream of performing on the horn. It is a time to really knuckle down and work, and it is especially important at this point to work with a teacher that knows and teaches excerpts.
Historically many of my MM students at ASU have had undergraduate degrees in music education, and it actually makes a lot of sense for them to consider the MM performance program as in many states a Masters degree is required of music educators to obtain permanent certification.
In the MM performance program I am pretty focused on development of skills needed for orchestral playing and auditions. As a part of your audition you need to show me that you have a foundation laid and that you are at a point where you can make the kind of additional progress required.
The terminal graduate degree in horn is the Doctorate, in most cases the DMA (Doctor of Musical Arts, although I have a DM). While traditionally this program was for students that wanted to teach at the college level, increasingly I find that a percentage of DMA students are basically players who are working toward winning a performance job. Still, I see the DMA as ideally a degree for someone who wants to build a career that includes playing and teaching at the college level. Many schools require the Doctorate for tenure track faculty. In terms of how I teach a DMA student, this study is an extension of MM study but with more thought given to building a broader resume and experience.
Unless you went to a very prestigious school for your undergrad you should probably be thinking about a larger school for your advanced degrees. Ideally for someone wanting to teach college you should attend a variety of schools; I attended a small college (BM-Emporia State), a conservatory (MM and PC, Eastman), and a large university (DM-Indiana) for my degrees. Plus I built up a resume with solid performing experiences (including Third Horn in the Nashville Symphony) and publications.
Finally, in conclusion, consider ASU among your options. We have a very strong program at all levels, one that should be considered by any serious student of the horn. More information may be found in our studio website.
