    SOUTH dir Morgan Quaintance [Yusef Komunyakaa] An island is one great eye, gazing out, a beckoning lighthouse, searchlight, a wishbone compass, or counterweight to the stars. When it comes to outlook and point of view, a figure stands on a rocky ledge peering out towards an archipelago of glass on the mainland, a seagull's wings touching the tip of a high wave, out to where the brain may stumble. [Faint crackling static] [Melancholic solo cello] [Intertwining string melodies] [Melodies soaring higher] [Melancholic cello theme returns] [Theme soars then descends] [Low string melodies] [Sombre dying cadence] [Music ends] [Echoing footsteps] [Audience members clearing throats] [Piano cadence] [Baritone sings aria in Italian] [Singing continues, accompanied by piano] [Dramatic climax] [Music ends] [Female voice] Once you can speak, you can learn to sing. [Dramatic piano cadence] -Oh, I began teaching in er... 1971. -[Soprano singing in background] I returned to Vienna and then I built up a choir. But I had a forty voice choir. And this choir was so professional, they sang in about seven languages. Because I taught them to sing in German, in Italian, in French and even Russian. So, the first thing I asked them to do, I say sing anything [chuckles]. And then when I hear where the voice is I know whether it's a low voice, or a middle voice, or a high voice; I can tell. [Soprano and piano continues] The power, actually, you can use in the right way. Because you don't always have to sing very loud, you can control the singing, sing softly but yet that could reach out beyond.

  • English Beat: in Concert at the Royal Festival Hall DVD Reviewed on Audiovideorevolution.Com
    English Beat: In Concert at the Royal Festival Hall DVD Reviewed on AudioVideoRevolution.com title: English Beat: In Concert at the Royal Festival Hall studio: Secret Films MPAA rating: Not Rated starring: English Beat DVD release 2005 year: film rating: Three Stars sound/picture: Three Stars reviewed by: Dan MacIntosh When you break it right down, there’s nothing particularly English about The English Beat. You may recall how the group was once lumped in with the whole ska movement back in the ‘80s, mainly because it was on the 2 Tone Records label, along with The Specials and The Selector. But if you listen closely, you hear very little actual ska (which is not exactly a British export in the first place) in the group’s songs. For instance, the only horn player in this outfit is the ancient Saxa, who would much rather play mellow jazz than skanking beats anyhow. Furthermore, the group’s repertoire contains a bounteous supply of reggae – both fast and slow – as well as other dance grooves. But no matter the style, all of these elements support this act’s punkish political attitude, which is possibly its lone true English attribute. This show, which was filmed at The Royal Festival Hall in London, England, features quite a few of the band’s original members. These players include the two front people, Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling, as well as Saxa and drummer Everett Morton. And except for Saxa, of course, all of these musicians still look incredibly young. Better yet, they also sound great.

  • Plaintiff Must Prove Service on Motion to Vacate Default Judgment by Erin Louise Palmer , Litigation News Contributing Editor – May 12, 2015
    Plaintiff Must Prove Service on Motion to Vacate Default Judgment By Erin Louise Palmer , Litigation News Contributing Editor – May 12, 2015 Service by certified mail is insufficient to satisfy the plaintiff’s burden in a motion to vacate a default judgment, according to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania . In Myers v. Moore , the district court granted the defendants’ motion to vacate a default judgment of more than $1 million where the plaintiff failed to demonstrate that the defendants had actual knowledge of the lawsuit and where the plaintiff failed to establish that she properly served the complaint on defendants or their authorized agents. Observers question how a plaintiff would satisfy these evidentiary hurdles. Plaintiff Awarded $1 Million Default Judgment The lawsuit arises out of a stage-diving incident at a music venue in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. During a performance, the lead singer of the band Fishbone, Angelo C. Moore, dove into the crowd and knocked over the plaintiff, causing her serious injuries. The plaintiff sued Moore, John Noorwood Fisher (Fishbone’s bass player), Fishbone, Fishbone’s manager, and other parties associated with the venue for negligence and civil conspiracy in producing the concert and failing to warn the audience that the concert would feature stage diving. The plaintiff also sued Moore, Fisher, and Fishbone for assault and battery. After the plaintiff reached settlements with some of the defendants, the court dismissed the plaintiff’s claims against the non-settling defendants, including Moore and Fisher. The plaintiff brought another action on February 3, 2012, against the non-settling defendants for negligence, civil conspiracy, and assault and battery.

Focus is made on the background of the lyrics and the sub-text as well as text of the lyrics. There is also some analysis of punk's impact on mondern music During the mid to late 1970's a new genre of music crept into the popular culture on both sides of the Atlantic; this genre became known as punk rock. Divorcing themselves from the mainstream of music and estranging nlany on their way, punk musicians challenged both nlusical and cultural conventions. The music, for the most part, was written by the performers and performed without worrying about what other people thought of it.

  • 12 Noon Until
    12 until noon 5pm When they are not working, they spend their summer in a beautiful meadow in Wales, surrounded by a Woodland Trust wood, while in the winter they are housed in a large, warm barn. When they are working, however, like all donkeys they love the attention they receive, and a healthy, working donkey is a very happy donkey indeed. Come along and see the donkeys!! Ferret racing has been held at country shows and fetes for many years and has proven to be very popular at such events. It gives everyone a chance to participate in our displays by having a small flutter on the outcome of the race, eventually by being both either winners if their ferret comes first or helping contribute dona- tions to charity and animal welfare if they lose! Get your caricature done by professional caricature artist Ian Lloyd. Fun for the whole family! Come and try your hand at some circus skills taught by Circus Fantastic. We will have lots of fun equipment for you to have a go play with. Ever fancied yourself as a juggler or plate spinner? Or perhaps you are a secret hula hooper. We can teach you the basics or show you some new tricks. Come and see our amazing birds of prey! You will have the opportunity to ask ques- tions, take photographs and see our flying displays with audience participation. These displays include falcons, a hawk and an eagle owl.

  • THE REVIEW: the Beat Were Formed in Birmingham in 1978. Soon After, They Had to Change Their Name to the ENGLISH Beat to Avoid Confusion with Another Band
    THE REVIEW: The Beat were formed in Birmingham in 1978. Soon after, they had to change their name to The ENGLISH Beat to avoid confusion with another band. They are known as one of the leaders of the Ska revivalist movement along with fellow Brits The Specials, Madness, The Selecter and The Body Snatchers. The British ska groups were of course multiracial and were formed by kids who lived in the same areas. Much like the poor kids of Jamaica, they didnt have much money so they formed bands to perform when they couldnt get into clubs.The English Beat was co-lead by Guitar/Vocalist Dave Wakeling a punk rock toaster, along with Ranking Roger another brilliant reggae/ska toaster. The other members were made up of Andy Cox (Guitar), Dave Steel (Bass), Everett Morton (Drums) and the one and only Saxa (Saxophone). Saxa was originally in a well known band called Prince Buster and Desmond Dekker, and this helped bring The Beat even more attention at the time. Saxa was also much older than the other chaps (around 50 years old at the time), but he contributed an extra special soulful touch that made the band sound even better than before. The Beat went on to open for The Selecter and they then were signed to the 2 Tone label (specialists in ska) and they followed this with the release of their first single "Tears of A Clown", a skanked up version of the Motown Smokey Robinson classic hit. In 1980, The Beat decided to start their own indie label and they called it Go-Feet (an Arista sub-label).
