  • Þáttur 1.Odt
    Lucy Leave Good afternoon. My name is Björgvin Rúnar Leifsson and this is an episode about Pink Floyd. The origins of Pink Floyd can be traced back to bassist Clive Metcalfe and vocalist Keith Noble, who formed the band Sigma 6 at The London School of Polytechnics in the winter of 1962-63 and were joined by Roger Waters on guitar, Nick Mason on drums, Richard Wright on keyboards and vocalists Sheila Noble and Juliette Gale. They got Ken Chapman to join them as a songwriter and agent and he introduced them as The Architectural Abdabs later that winter. In his book, Inside Out, Nick Mason mentions that his first acquaintance with Roger Waters was when Waters asked to borrow his car as Mason had an Austin Seven model year 1930. Mason also says that the first time Waters and Richard Wright met was when Waters asked Wright for a cigarette, which Wright flatly denied. Mason, who is clearly a humorist, adds that this was a shining example of Wright's mythical generosity. The story actually says that Waters sat at the end of the table where Wright was working and reached for and opened a new package as he asked for the cigarette. Another example of Mason's humor is his favorite joke about the boy who tells his mother that he intends to become a drummer when he grows up and the mother promptly responds that he can not do both. Mason also says that PF arose from two groups of friends, who overlapped. On the one hand, there was a group of childhood friends from Cambridge, namely Waters, Roger (Syd) Barrett and David Gilmour and it may be added here that it was Gilmour, who taught Barrett to play the guitar.

  • The Forest of Magic & Mystery: the Wily Will-‐O-‐The-‐Whisp
    SPARKLE HALLOWEEN EVENTS The Forest of Magic & Mystery: the Wily Will-O-The-Whisp David and Lisabeth Sewell McCann, Sparkle Stories PRODUCTION NOTES: This “play” is structured as a series of short performances – to be experienced by groups of people in the order given below. Each of the “stations” needs to be spaced apart – enough distance so that the action of one doesn’t distract from another. This can be performed in woods or fields or parks, or even in the classrooms and along the halls of schools. Or it could be in different houses of a neighborhood. The path between the stations can be lit with jack-o-lanterns or luminarios. At the performance’s end, there should be a table that represents the “fairy ball” with edible treats. There is a lot of “singing” and “dancing” in this show – but this in no way needs to sound or seem “professional”. The songs can be the simplest diddies – or even spoken as verses. As long as the performer is having fun, so will the children! Below is the “script”. The play is interactive, and so the language can be flexible and open to improvisation and embellishment. The logistical details, however, do need to be included and stressed – as they propel the story and the journey for our “travelers” or the children who have come to enjoy themselves. RECOMMENDATIONS: Have a volunteer parent “guide” go with each group to help direct, in case the children forget the clues or songs. Parents should join children on the walk. No unattended children.

    Lunatics II 03 **** **** **** **** **** ********* ********* THE LUNATICS NEWLETTER © THE LUNATICS NEWSLETTER, Year II, N° 03, 25/03/2004 SUMMARY. Available in this number: Special edition, "THE PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN": 1) TPatGoD general notes 2) TPatGoD Japan 3) TPatGoD Italy 4) TPatGoD Germany 5) TPatGoD Germany misspressed 6) TPatGoD Japan test-pressing 7) TPatGoD Turkey ~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~ 1) THE PIPER AT THE GATES OF DAWN, Italy. (by Stefano Tarquini, Alfredo Orsini & Nino Gatti) Uscito ufficialmente nell'agosto del 1967 in Inghilterra, la prima fatica del gruppo richiamava essenzialmente i primi due singoli, "Arnold Layne" (Columbia DB-8156) e "See Emily Play" (Columbia DB-8214), che già dal primo periodo furono un successo di vendita. Il titolo di questo LP viene dal titolo del settimo capitolo del libro di Kenneth Graham "Wind in the Willows", dove Ratty e Molly cercano un animale perduto, e hanno una specie di esperienza religiosa quando incontrano, appunto, "The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn" (che molti identificano nel dio greco Pan). La discografia mondiale (analizzando le stampe originali e le ristampe) è abbastanza ricca di edizioni, forse non come i successivi successi degli anni '70, ma dobbiamo pur considerare la particolare musica "psichedelica" del periodo post-beatlesiano e che si tratta della fine degli anni '60. Tra le edizioni "normali" spiccano le edizioni originali inglesi e americane, uscite sia in versione mono (Columbia SX-6157 in UK, addirittura con etichette con delle piccole differenze di caratteri; Tower T-5093 negli USA), che in versione stereo (Columbia SCX-6157 in UK; Tower ST-5093 negli USA, quest'ultima uscita sia con l'etichetta originale marrone, sia con la classica etichetta a strisce colorate nelle ristampe).

  • Pooka's Page for Grownups Lor an …………
    Pooka’s Page for Grownups Just a reminder that Fiona has a new book out… and this one’s for kids as well as grownups! Fiona (when not writing for Pooka Pages and in her spare time) is a school teacher in Scotland. The book not only includes her warm and funny stories of the Wheel of the Year for children. It also is full of advice and suggestions for grownups raising kids in the pagan tradition. Whether you're 5 years old or 50, this is a great book to have on your shelf! It’s available on Amazon. And, while you’re shopping on Amazon, don’t forget Lilianne Grenier’s wonderful Wheel of the Year coloring book. I guarantee grownups will have as much fun as kids coloring in her whimsical drawings. Our Pooka story is a bit long this time. I’ve divided it into 2 parts for our younger readers. Perhaps the first bit can be read one night and the 2nd part the following night? The second part also includes suggestions for natural Yule ornaments the kids can make. Many kids will recognize illustrations from Pooka’s Winter Book. However, Fantastic News! My hand has slowly been healing over the past year and I can once again hold a pen for short periods. So they can look forward to new illustrations in the coming issues! We have a couple of very special Guest Authors in this issue - Aletta, age 9 and her sister Amelie who’s 7 years old. The girls wrote to Pooka (He loves getting mail from kids!) and included stories they’d both written.

Reference called GNOME (the Gnu Network Object Model Environment). Based upon the ethos of simplicity by design, GNOME offers a rich and full interface that you can use easily to be productive. The principle design objectives include an intuitive system, meaning that it should be easy to pick up and use, as well as good localization/internation- alization support and accessibility. GNOME is founded upon the X Window System, the graphical networking interface found on many Linux distri- butions, which provides the basis for a wide range of graphical tools and window managers. More commonly known as just X, it can also be referred to as X11R7 and X11 (such as that found on Mac OS X). Coming from the world-renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, X has gone through several versions, each of which has extended and enhanced the technology.
