  • Foo Fighters Questa Sera in Anteprima Live Con Waiting on a War: in Uscita Il 5 Febbraio MEDICINE at MIDNIGHT È Già Disponibile in Pre Order
    Foo Fighters Questa Sera In Anteprima Live Con Waiting On A War: In uscita il 5 febbraio MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT è già disponibile in pre order. 14/01/2021 I FOO FIGHTERS Festeggiano il compleanno di Dave Grohl con “WAITING ON A WAR” nuovo singolo estratto dall’atteso album “MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT” In uscita il 5 febbraio e già disponibile in pre order Sulla scia di “No Son of Mine”, i Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear e Rami Jaffee) aggiungono un altro tassello di “Medicine at Midnight” (Roswell Records/RCA Records), con il nuovo singolo “Waiting on a War, già disponibile in digitale e da venerdì 22 gennaio in rotazione radiofonica. Il nuovo album “Medicine At Midnight”, in pre-order a questo link (https://foofighters.lnk.to/MedicineAtMidnight), uscirà il prossimo 5 febbraio in diverse versioni: digitale, CD e vinile. Prodotto da Greg Kurstin e dai Foo Fighters, registrato da Darrell Thorp e mixato da Mark “Spike” Stent, “Medicine At Midnight” racchiude in 37 minuti 9 tracce. Si tratta del decimo disco della band che quest’anno ha festeggiato 25 anni di carriera costellata da dozzine di Grammy, numerosi premi, riconoscimenti e concerti in tutto il mondo. In netto contrasto con la dichiarazione «final f*ck you to 2020» che accompagnava “No Son of Mine”, “Waiting on a War” è invece una maestosa opera melodica con un crescendo continuo che esplode nel finale. Questa sera, giovedì 14 gennaio, i Foo Fighters presenteranno in anteprima live “Waiting on a War” al Jimmy Kimmel Live! Dave Grohl ha raccontato il personale aneddoto che l’ha ispirato per la canzone: “Da bambino, cresciuto nei sobborghi di Washington DC, ho sempre avuto paura della guerra.

  • Fun in the Outdoors Perfectly Effortless Program
    FUN IN THE OUTDOORS Perfectly Effortless Programs Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri Emerson Resource Center 2300 Ball Drive St. Louis, MO 63146 314.592.2360 Introduction Girl Scout programs are built on the concept of progression – acquiring the skills needed to progress to more difficult or highly-skilled activities. Learning skills that will be helpful in the outdoors can start during any troop meeting and along with a progressive series of trips, beginning with a day outing, can provide the group with the skills to travel almost anywhere. Try looking at It’s Your Planet-Love It! Journey series or check out The Girl Guide to Girl Scouting legacy badges (naturalist) or the outdoor badges- hiker, camper, trailblazer or adventurer. A Day Outing Is: • Cooking, hiking and playing outdoor games • Learning about nature – birds, the trees and the sky • Discovering the beauty of the outdoors • Becoming comfortable in the natural environment • Practicing skills for a first time before an overnight camping trip • Taking an all-day hike to prepare for a backpack trip • Practicing canoe skills for a canoe camping trip • Learning to fish • Finding your way with a compass or geo-caching with a GPS unit • Introducing girls and adults to Council camp facilities • Exploring forests and parks nearby Before you do anything in the outdoors, make sure you are ready: A day outing offers many opportunities for girls to complete badges. Putting the skills they have learned at in-town meetings into practical use is part of the day outing experience. Is there a badge or patch they could work on that would include these activities? Look in The Girl Guide to Girl Scouting for badge requirements.

  • Keeping Fire: the Cognitive Implications of Controlled Fire Use by Middle Pleistocene Humans
    Keeping Fire: The Cognitive Implications of Controlled Fire Use by Middle Pleistocene Humans Terrence Matthew Twomey Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree Doctor of Philosophy April 2011 School of Social and Political Sciences Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne Supervisory Committee Dr Edward Douglas Lewis Dr Neil Thomason Prof Andrew Dawson Prof Antonio Sagona i Abstract The thesis investigates the cognitive implications of controlled fire use by Middle Pleistocene humans. My argument is that we can infer features of human cognition from the behaviours required to control fire. This argument is grounded in the following two premises. First, some behaviours imply the operation of distinctively human cognitive abilities. For example, inhibiting prepotent responses, delaying gratification and anticipatory planning provide good evidence for executive functions, such as episodic memory, an extended working memory capacity and detached representations. Similarly, future directed cooperation, resolving social dilemmas and providing a public good imply features of human social cognition, such as theory of mind, collective intentionality and intersubjective communication. Second, fire use involved a range of cognitively demanding behaviours associated with accessing, maintaining and using fire that I argue meet the above behavioural criteria for human cognitive abilities. The thesis aims to show why this is the case. My working hypothesis is that fire related tasks stand as a sound behavioural basis for making inferences about the cognitive abilities of fire using humans. The thesis is warranted because we now have compelling evidence that humans have been using fire for at least 800 thousand years. The cognitive abilities of humans from this early time are not well understood and in dispute.

  • HAPPY FOO YEAR: “NO SON of MINE” SECOND TRACK from FORTHCOMING 10Th ALBUM out NOW MEDICINE at MIDNIGHT AVAILABLE for PRE-ORD
    HAPPY FOO YEAR: “NO SON OF MINE” SECOND TRACK FROM FORTHCOMING 10th ALBUM OUT NOW MEDICINE AT MIDNIGHT AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER AT http://foofighters.co/MAM Foo Fighters are ringing in 2021—literally—with the ear-ringing new “No Son of Mine.” The second track to be revealed from the band’s forthcoming 10th album Medicine at Midnight (out February 5th on Roswell Records/RCA Records), “No Son of Mine” is now available to stream or download, or as an instant grat track with pre-orders placed at foofighters.co/MAM “No Son of Mine” ignites the second half of Medicine at Midnight with a lightning strike of a riFF that builds into the album’s most full-on barnstormer. Replete with nods to familiar FF influences from Queen's "Stone Cold Crazy” to Ace of Spades/Iron Fist-era Motörhead to Metallica's Kill ‘Em All, “No Son of Mine” features a streamlined, minimalist chassis of searing Grohl, Smear and Shiflett licks atop a steel-trap-tight Hawkins/Mendel rhythmic frame. "This is the kind of song that just resides in all of us and if it makes sense at the time, we let it out,” Grohl explains, adding, "Lyrically it’s meant to poke at the hypocrisy of self-righteous leaders, people that are guilty of committing the crimes they’re supposedly against…” Medicine at Midnight is produced by Greg Kurstin and Foo Fighters, engineered by Darrell Thorp and mixed by Mark “Spike” Stent, and packs the following nine songs into a tight-ass 37 minutes: Making a Fire Shame Shame Cloudspotter Waiting on a War Medicine at Midnight No Son of Mine Holding Poison Chasing Birds Love Dies Young Foo Fighters are Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear, and Rami Jaffee.
