  • Strangers No More: “When Harry Met [Dante]…”
    Kate Dowling Bryn Mawr School, Baltimore, MD Dante Senior Elective at Gilman School Strangers No More: “When Harry Met [Dante]…” If Dante were to listen to “Stranger with the Melody” at this point on his journey, I think he would be able to relate it a lot to his sense of moving into a different part of his life. Right now, Dante is overcome with emotion, as he has lost Vergil but also been reunited with Beatrice and made it to Paradise. The stranger in the poem reminds me a lot of Vergil, since at the beginning of the song his presence seems almost godlike. When the anonymous voice comes through the walls to Harry, it seems like it is not even attached to a real person; instead, this man appeared just for Harry, as if he was meant to hear his song. Just like this stranger, Vergil appears to Dante and seems almighty. Through Inferno he knows everything and can tell Dante exactly what to do. On Mount Purgatory, Vergil is more unsure, but he still manages to get Dante to the top successfully. Vergil cannot stay with Dante forever, though, and soon we see how Vergil is limited by his Paganism and restricted to his place in Limbo. Just like Vergil, this unknown singer is limited, in this case by his own emotions. The singer can only repeat the same words over and over again, and he seems lost because he can never move on from them. He never will be able to either, because he says that only his girl can tell him the words, while he can just play the music.

  • Sometimes You Have to Break the Rules Sunday, August 22, 2021, 11:15 A.M., All Saints Church, Pasadena the Rev
    1 Sometimes You Have to Break the Rules Sunday, August 22, 2021, 11:15 a.m., All Saints Church, Pasadena The Rev. Mike Kinman The scholar asked Jesus, “Which commandment is the first of all?” + If you could be at any concert or performance in your lifetime, what would you choose? The Beatles at Shea Stadium? Pink Floyd doing The Wall at the Berlin Wall? Coachella with Beyonce in 2018 The Monterrey Pop Festival with Janis Joplin Woodstock Would it be the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival that’s featured in Summer of Soul - Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly & the Family Stone, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Mahalia Jackson, B.B. King, The 5th Dimension .. Clara Williams. That would be pretty awesome. But no, for me, I know my answer. For me, it would be July 13, 1985 – Wembley Stadium. Live Aid. 1.9 billion people – 40 percent of the world’s population watching. $127 million raised for famine relief in Ethiopia. And the lineup … a little light on women but still incredible … David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Sting, Elton John, The Who, Paul McCartney, Freddie Mercury and Queen leading all 72,000 people in singing Radio Gaga. 72,000 people clapping their hands over their head in unison. What it would have been like to be there. But for me … I would want to have been there for one moment. Live Aid was a lot of things, but one of them was it was the global coming out party for an Irish band called U2. Maybe you’ve heard of them. And I’d want to be there to witness one moment.

  • Why You Like Listening to the Same Song Over and Over Again
    Why You Like Listening To The Same Song Over And Over Again huffingtonpost.ca/entry/why-you-like-listening-same-song_us_5b06c900e4b05f0fc8458fc2 May 24, 2018 Lilly Roadstones/Getty Images There are several reasons you still haven't gotten sick of that song you've played 100 times already. Play song, start over, listen and repeat: There are some songs you can listen to over and over again. But why? There’s no definitive answer, but we all know that some music makes us feel specific feelings or elicits certain memories that transport us back in time. And sometimes, a song is just plain catchy. Music experts broke down the many ways certain songs affect us ― and gave these explanations for why we keep playing them again and again: The song is part of your identity. One of the main reasons certain songs resonate with us is the way we connect them with a part of ourselves. 1/3 “Music is the way that we create our personal identity,” said Kenneth Aigen, director of the music therapy program at New York University. “It’s part of our identity construction. Some people say you are what you eat. In a lot of ways, you are what you play or you are what you listen to.” Aigen explained that a song’s lyrics, beats and other characteristics can embody different feelings and attitudes that enhance our sense of identity. “Each time we re-experience our favorite music, we’re sort of reinforcing our sense of who we are, where we belong, what we value,” he said.

  • Grade 6 Math Circles Patterns
    Faculty of Mathematics Centre for Education in Waterloo, Ontario N2L 3G1 Mathematics and Computing Grade 6 Math Circles February 21/22, 2017 Patterns - Solutions Tower of Hanoi The Tower of Hanoi is a puzzle with three wooden pegs and three rings. These rings are each different sizes and the puzzle begins with the rings all on the first peg, stacked with each ring smaller than the one below it. The goal of this puzzle is to move the rings to another peg in the minimum number of moves. However, you can only move the rings one at a time and you may never place a larger ring on top of a smaller one! What is the minimum number of moves to solve the puzzle? 7 moves. Number the pegs 1, 2, and 3 from the left to the right. Label the rings A, B, C from largest to smallest. Move C to 2, B to 3, C to 3, A to 2, C to 1, B to 2, and finally C to 2. 1 What if you now have 4 rings to move? What is the minimum number of moves to solve the puzzle now? 15 moves What about with 5 rings? 31 moves. What is happening every time we add another ring to the puzzle? Predict how many moves you will need to solve the puzzle with 6, 7, and 8 rings. Each time a new ring is added, the minimum number of moves to solve the puzzle doubles and has 1 extra move added. So, with 6 rings, the minimum number of moves will be (31 × 2) + 1 = 62 + 1 = 63.

  • Hell of Torah Part 3 of 6: Sodom & Gomorrah; Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego (Presented Around April 2015)
    Hell of Torah Part 3 of 6: Sodom & Gomorrah; Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego (Presented around April 2015) The following text is based on a message from Corner Fringe Ministries that was presented by Daniel Joseph. The original presentation can be viewed at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxmAaIm3Ve4 *Portions of the video message have been edited to present a written document. All the Scripture verses are from the New King James Version unless otherwise noted and are in the red text. Therefore, it is recommended that this document is printed in color. The Hebrew is to be read from right to left. We are in our third week of our series The Hell of Torah. Over the last couple weeks, we've looked at the reality of the judgment that is to come upon the entire world. We have looked at the fact that that judgment is going to be manifested through fire, and that fire is going to be Torah, the Law of God. Now, this week I want to take a closer look at the effects that this fiery judgment is going to have specifically how it's going to impact all of humanity. When you look at Scripture closely, you realize that the fiery judgment that is coming upon the earth is not just going to be something that is experienced by the wicked alone. You will find that the righteous are also going to experience the hell of Torah. However, for the righteous, the experience is going to be somewhat different compared to the wicked.

  • Über Den Dächern Von Durham Generation
    Kultur as Blöde mit der Genialität ist, dass sie wahrscheinlich nie ganz POP Dohne Tragik auskommt. Paddy McAloon, inzwischen 56 Jahre alt, gilt als einer der größten Songwriter seiner Über den Dächern von Durham Generation. Niemand schreibt so voll - endet und leichtfüßig. Und eigentlich ist auch die neue Single seiner Band Prefab Paddy McAloon gilt als einer der größten Songwriter. Der Brite Sprout das reine, rauschhafte Pop-Glück. ist halbblind, halbtaub und sieht aus wie der liebe Gott. „The Best Jewel Thief in the World“ heißt das Lied, mit aufstrebenden Gitarren - Doch er singt immer noch wie der junge Mann, der er einst war. akkorden und Polizeisirenen erzählt es die Geschichte des besten Juwelendiebs der Welt und wie er in der Euphorie des geglückten Raubs über die nächtlichen Dächer schleicht. Seit zwölf Jahren haben Prefab Sprout keine neuen Songs mehr veröffentlicht. Kaum jemand hat ihr Comeback erwartet. Paddy McAloon hört nicht mehr rich - tig. Vor einigen Jahren hatte er einen schweren Hörsturz. Wenn er seine Lieder hört, muss er sich das Störgeräusch weg - denken, das noch immer in seinen Ohren brummt wie eine aggressive Klimaanlage. Den Bass kriegt er nur noch auf der lin - ken Seite mit. Und laut darf er das, was er da produziert hat, auch nicht hören, weil er den Rest seines Gehörs verlieren könnte. Er kann nicht mehr reisen, nicht mehr live auftreten. Songs schreiben, das geht noch. Manchmal nimmt er sie auch auf, aber da wird es schon kompliziert. Ein warmer Spätsommertag in der Stu - dentenstadt Durham unweit der Grenze zu Schottland. McAloon ist in der Nähe aufgewachsen, sein Vater hat hier eine Tankstelle geführt, er selbst hat die Ge - gend nie wirklich verlassen.

  • Wir Sind Helden
    Wir sind Helden Sie war eine der erfolgreichsten deutschen Pop-Rockbands der vergangenen Jahre: „Wir sind Helden“. Ihre Kritik an gesellschaftlichen und politischen Missständen wurde in eine mainstreamtaugliche Musik verpackt. Musik: Wir sind Helden: Guten Tag Sprecher: Im Jahr 2000 gründet sich eine junge Band in Berlin – ein Vorgang, der fast täglich und überall stattfindet. Aber diesmal ist es eine Band, die bald von großer Bedeutung für die deutsche Musiklandschaft sein wird. Besonders in Studentenkreisen entfaltet sie ihre Wirkung, denn sie ist politisch irgendwie links, frech, aber irgendwie auch nett. Das mögen alle. Marc Tavassol, Pola Roy, Jean-Michel Tourette und Judith Holofernes sind „Wir sind Helden“. Bis auf Marc haben sich alle Künstlernamen gegeben. Marc, Pola und Judith sagen, was sie dazu bewegte, zusammen zu musizieren: Marc / Pola / Judith: „Pola ist ja der Mensch, den ich am längsten kenne aus der Band und vorher schon als einen meiner besten Freunde bezeichnet hab. / Mit Jean habe ich einmal zusammen gespielt, und mir war irgendwie klar, dass ich mit dem Musik machen will. Es war so Liebe auf den ersten Blick . / Marc ist oft skeptisch , aber oft auch in den richtigen Momenten. Also, ich glaube, das ist ein ganz guter Posten bei uns in der Band. Ich glaub’, wenn wir so jemanden nicht hätten, dann würden wir relativ oft irgendwie von der Bühne fallen .“ Sprecher: Alle drei respektierten sich gegenseitig und wussten um das Können des jeweils anderen. Während Marc und Pola sich kannten, bevor die Band zusammenfand, war das bei Pola und Jean anders. Pola hatte einmal mit Jean musiziert und sofort festgestellt, dass sie beide gut zusammenpassen.
