April - June 2016 2 01 SHINE LP4: Cross-Cultural Engagement Workshop | April - June Since February 2016, LP4 of the SHINE Award Programme has successfully rolled out 4 sessions of Cross-Cultural Engagement Workshop (CCEW) engaging a total of 144 participants. The workshop is designed to be a safe and guided place for students to develop the necessary sensitivities and skills to facilitate a positive and productive cross-cultural experience in the real world. Usually held on Saturdays, CCEW takes students on a personal journey of self-realization in terms on their cultural identity and then lead them to an effective and productive cross-cultural engagement A unique feature of the workshop is “Kiki Lala: A Cross-Cultural Simulation”, which is an in-class experiential learning opportunity that allows participants to experience cross- cultural interaction in a simulated environment. “My friends and I volunteered to be visitors, so we traveled to Lalaland and that's when it got interesting. At first we all laughed at the fact that we couldn't understand their culture or language, but it dawned on me that deep down inside me, I was feeling a little culture shock, even though this is a little game,” Teo Zhuo Yang of SOE said. After the simulation, students then get to debrief and discuss their experience and encounters through various group activities and sharing sessions. 3 01 SHINE LP4: Cross-Cultural Engagement Workshop | April - June 4 02 Actions in Mind (A.I.M.) Workshop | April 2016 180 Student Leaders from 29 Student Organisations recently participated in the Actions in Mind (A.I.M.) Workshop organised by Life Skills Development, INTELLECT. The Workshop was centered towards helping Student Leaders understand their roles, responsibilities and commitment as Student Leaders, determine the Student Organisation’s AIM for the year through the implementation of the annual action plan, signature event and other related activities throughout their calendar year. This was also a platform for them to collaborate with other Student Organisations through the exchange of ideas and future events. Throughout the workshop, Student Leaders were engaged to reflect and determine the impact they hope to create through their leadership and also as a Student Organisation. Each Student Organisation under the purview of Life Skills Development, INTELECT is required to conceptualise, plan and execute a Signature Event during their term. These activities may range from conferences, workshops, talks, fundraisers, concerts and even performances, all of which, create a vibrant and enriching University experience. Additionally, each Student Organisation provides Experiential Learning Opportunities under Learning Package 2: People and Leadership through the SHINE Award Programme, for students to lead various projects or be part of the Organising Committee of various projects. 5 03 9th Festival of Colours of the World | April 2016 On the 15th and 16th of April 2016, the 9th Festival of Colors of the World organised by University Technology PETRONAS in their Seri Iskandar Campus, Perak hosted 9 private institutions, 6 public institutions and 5 schools. Taylor’s University was among the 9 private institutions and was represented by 12 students from Taylor’s University Cultural Art Performers, or also known as TRADISI! Other participating private institutions were HELP, IUMW, Nottingham, CUCMS, TAJ, UNITAR, UNITEN Putrajaya and UNITEN Muadzam Shah. Our TRADISIans diligently practiced for a month from Monday to Friday, 6.00pm – 9.00pm in different locations and were trained by a certified trainer, Cikgu Wan Mustaffa, which is from Jabatan Seni dan Budaya to prepare themselves for the competition. Since most of them had never danced before, it was a challenge for them to master the dance movements and to capture the beat of the traditional music to sync with their dance. FESCO 2016 was held at night and TRADISI competed with other private universities in their own category which is Medley Traditional Malay Dance Category. In a nutshell, their dance must only consist of Malay traditional dances such as the Zapin, Inang, Asli or Joget. TRADISI performed their dance, a combination of Asli and Joget with the dance title Kembara Kasih Nurani. Although they did not win anything, they vow to be the champion next year. Overall it was a great learning experience for the TRADISIans and they look forward to the 10th FESCO next year. 6 03 9th Festival of Colours of the World | April 2016 7 04 Lumière ’16 – A Signature Event of Taylor’s University C.S.I. | April 2016 Lumière ‘16, organized by Taylor’s University Community Service Initiatives (C.S.I.), came and went on April 9, 2016 (Saturday), but the impact they left behind will linger for quite a while yet. C.S.I. hosted a total of 510 attendees for the event that successfully raised a whooping net profit of RM 15,012.30 to be shared between Refuge for the Refugees, the beneficiary unit of the event, and also C.S.I.’s upcoming community service projects. Featuring 9 finalists of various talents, Lumière ‘16 was a colourful night of songs, dances, musical performance and even a magic show. The attendees—comprised of staff and students of Taylor’s, along with family and friends—flooded the foyer of LT 21 & 22 early in the evening to get their dinner from the events’ vendor sponsors. Attendees also visited the exhibition booth about the refugee children and the beautiful photo booth constructed by our students (top right and bottom left below). 8 04 Lumière ’16 – A Signature Event of Taylor’s University C.S.I. | April 2016 Kali (top left), a representative from RFTR shared about the work of the organization followed by a welcome address from Ong Eu Nis (bottom right), the President of Taylor’s University C.S.I. Our very own 24 Festive Drum troupe gave a grand opening with their newest choreography, while the judges and guest performers comprised of our local talents and celebrities ensured that there wasn’t a dull moment all through the evening. Finally, the following contestants emerged as winners for the night: 9 04 Lumière ’16 – A Signature Event of Taylor’s University C.S.I. | April 2016 FIRST PLACE: ACE CREW SECOND PLACE: HELLO LUQMAN THIRD PLACE: AUDREY LEE With the support of the Taylor’s community and even beyond, Lumière ‘16 proved to be a success. 10 Sharing Culture, Raising Funds – Taylor’s University Chinese Society | 05 May 2016 Students from the Chinese Society successfully held their Chinese Cultural & Charity Carnival on May 5-6, reaching out to 390 individuals through their bazaar and hosting a total of 285 attendees for their performance night! What more, they also raised a net profit of RM 4117.55, part of which goes towards helping their beneficiary unit, IQ70+, a centre for individuals with special needs. Top left, clockwise: Celia Ho (President of TUCS) delivering an opening speech, MCs for the night, Dr. Tang Siew Fun (Dean of Teaching and Learning) delivering her welcome address. Showcasing tradition laced with a touch of modernity, performances of the night included Taylor’s 24 Festive Drums, songs bearing a taste of Old Shanghai, fusion dances, and even a short musical drama. 11 06 Taylor’s Debaters won the HEP – IMU Debate Competition | May 2016 “We are not born successful, it’s not a trait you inherit, to succeed in life, one must have the courage, determination and strength to overcome all obstacles put in their path on the road to success”, this quote echoes the sentiments felt by our remarkable students who never gave up the fighting spirit. Being a group of driven individuals, they have always given their all in ensuring that the Taylor's University name is represented with pride. Their achievements are great but the people who got here together are even greater! It was an all breaking contingent, with Taylor's A team coming 1st and Taylor's B team breaking 2nd in HEP – IPTS Debate Competition held at International Medical University (IMU), Bukit Jalil on the 6th till 8th May 2016.

  • The Humour of Greyson Chance (To Mark the Third Anniversary of the Beginning of His Career)
    1 The Humour Of Greyson Chance (to mark the third anniversary of the beginning of his career) 28 April 2010, when he posted his cover of Paparazzi and his own song Broken Hearts to YouTube, is usually regarded as the beginning of his career. A year ago (on 30 April 2012), during a private function in Hongkong, he recounted that his fans had tweeted to him two days previously ’Two years, two years, two years’ and that he had wondered ‘What’s two years?’ which provoked merriment among the audience. Upon this, he performed a liberally modified version of his cover of Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi, originally the commencement of his career: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNZFilwkfvU It is reassuring that his fans remind him of this anniversary when he himself fails to remember it! This was the time that followed his (band-accompanied) first concert tour in South-East Asia, when he stayed on for a few weeks to perform solo and give interviews. His most frequently varied song, Waiting Outside The Lines, he often interpreted in an exuberant manner, winding up by repeating the ‘wo-o’ for up to forty seconds. Unfortunately, the videos are often of a bad quality: 24 April in Taiwan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL2Qa_6XGZg 20 April in Hongkong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnsZkuCKwUs 4 May in Bangkok: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHI65bMUj9o These videos show clearly that he entertains not only his fans, but also himself, and that it is one of his basic characteristics to vary the songs from each perfomance to the next.

  • Superstars Describe Why They're Appearing on Mda Labor Day Telethon
    Contact: Jim Brown MDA Vice President – Public Relations 702-797-8535 (MDA Labor Day Telethon Office) or 520-903-8556 (cell) or jbrown@mdausa.org SUPERSTARS DESCRIBE WHY THEY’RE APPEARING ON MDA LABOR DAY TELETHON LAS VEGAS, Nev., Sept. 1, 2011 ― As the finishing touches are being finessed for the 46th annual Muscular Dystrophy Association Labor Day Telethon that will be broadcast nationwide from 6 p.m. to midnight in every U.S. time zone on Sunday, Sept. 4, mega star Celine Dion aptly described why the iconic show consistently attracts outstanding talent. “It’s always a privilege to be part of the MDA Labor Day Telethon,” said Celine, who’ll be performing in the 2011 Telethon’s opening hour. “I hope by taking part in this great cause, I can help MDA in its mission to make life better for families who are fighting muscle diseases. From supporting scientists who are searching for treatments and cures, to helping children go to MDA summer camp, MDA provides love and care in so many ways.” Celine’s motivation is shared by several artists who just confirmed their participation in Sunday’s primetime Telethon being broadcast by more than 150 television stations nationwide. For example, in a group message so typical of their harmonious sound, Boyz II Men members Shawn Stockton, Nathan and Wanya Morris said, "we’re excited to be part of the MDA Labor Day Telethon this year and lend our voices to a such a good cause. We remember watching it growing up and it's great to be a part of something so historic that benefits so many people everyday.

  • GREYSON CHANCE BIO “There Are No Second Acts in American Lives.”
    GREYSON CHANCE BIO “There are no second acts in American lives.” So said American literary icon F. Scott Fitzgerald. But of course he’s wrong. Sadly, he never had the opportunity of meeting Greyson Chance. This uniquely gifted singer/songwriter/instrumentalist enjoyed a spectacular Chapter 1. After all, how many other artists drew 14 million views to their debut singles on YouTube, not to mention roughly 100 million views on their YouTube page? And performed multiple times on Ellen and other national TV outlets? And headlined in Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore, Manila and elsewhere in Far Eastern Asia — twice? All before he was 17 years old? As Fitzgerald surely knew, when your story opens with a bang, that can be hard to follow. But Chance is about to change all that, with new music that captures not only his musical growth but also his skill at surviving the backwash of premature fame, finding his true creative compass and redefining himself as an artist. Gentle yet painfully honest. Spare in texture, emotionally turbulent. The music of Greyson Chance blends insight and irresolution with a sensitivity many artist three times his age have yet to achieve. He is a virtuoso of understatement, a plain-speaking poet and an artist whose time has come. Yet to be titled, his upcoming EP stems from years of reflection. Life-changing choices had to be made to bring him to this point. One of them involved acknowledging and embracing his orientation as a gay man. Perhaps even more courageously, he escaped the mixed blessings of celebrity, moved back to his home state of Oklahoma and enrolled at the University of Tulsa, where he remains a student even now.

  • Music Stars Go to Grammy Camp
    Music Stars Go to Grammy Camp This story comes from VOA Special English, Voice of America's daily news and information service for English learners. Read the story and then do the activities in the worksheet at the end. Getting a job in the music business is not easy. But getting advice from people who have already succeeded could help. That is the hope of more than one hundred young musicians who attended a camp in Los Angeles this past summer. Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers told the wannabe stars about the importance of social media. NICK JONAS: “Social media was incredibly important for my brothers and I at the beginning of our career and still is today. With Twitter and YouTube and Facebook, there are so many instant ways to connect with your fans.” Other music professionals also shared their knowledge at the week-long camp. The event is part of “Grammy in the Schools,” a project from the organizers of the music industry's Grammy Awards. The summer camp gives students a chance to improve their music industry skills. Ben LoPiccolo worked on his skills as a music reporter. BEN LOPICCOLO: “I found that I really enjoyed writing and telling people about music that I like to kind of expand their taste.” These teenagers hope to be part of an industry that is going through big changes. Kristen Madsen at the Grammy Foundation points to the influence of social networking on sites like Facebook and Twitter. KRISTEN MADSEN: "I would say that that’s probably the biggest theme that you can see, is watching the artists and the professionals come through and talk about, there are new ways and new roadmaps for kids to succeed in the music industry, and they have a lot more access to doing it themselves.” Thirteen-year-old Greyson Chance was preparing to release his first album.

  • 2012 NAMM Show Opens in Anaheim
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MEDIA CONTACTS: Kymberly Drake PR Manager, NAMM Ph: (760) 438-8007 x162 email: kymberlyd@namm.org 2012 NAMM Show Opens In Anaheim ANAHEIM, Calif. Jan. 19, 2012—The NAMM Show, one of the largest music products trade shows in the world hosted by the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM), opened today at the Anaheim Convention Center, welcoming an expected crowd of 90,000 musical instrument manufacturers, retailers, associates and their invited guests from all over the world to the industry’s annual gathering. This year marks the 110th anniversary of the legendary trade show and is the meeting place for musical instrument retailers to view and purchase the latest musical innovations being shown by more than 1,400 manufacturers. The estimated economic impact of the 2012 NAMM Show for the Orange County, Calif. economy is nearly $80 million. Key indicators including overall pre-registration, number of pre-registered buyers, international registrants, number of exhibiting companies and total exhibit space sold have all shown solid increases over last year’s event, another positive sign demonstrating steady industry recovery following the economic downturn. Themed “Make It Count,” the 2012 NAMM Show’s educational sessions will place the spotlight on innovation and ingenuity in the music products industry, highlighting music product manufacturers and retailers that have instituted new and creative ways to maintain successful businesses amidst an economic downturn. “We’re grateful to once again bring the global music and sound industry together in Anaheim for the NAMM Show,” said Lamond. “This is truly the ‘crossroads’ of product and business innovation and our members will have the opportunity to see the latest in gear, attend world- class education sessions and network with friends and peers.

  • Biografie Greyson Chance Mit Nur Ganz Wenigen Videos (Mehr Videos Sind in Den Karriere-Artikeln Enthalten)
    1 Biografie Greyson Chance mit nur ganz wenigen Videos (mehr Videos sind in den Karriere-Artikeln enthalten) Charakteristik Greyson Michael Chance (GC) ist ein US-amerikanischer Songwriter, Pianist und Sänger im Bereich der Pop/Rock-Musik. Er tritt mit und ohne Band auf, und ich finde ihn weitaus am besten, wenn er sich alleine auf dem Klavier begleitet. Neben eigenen Songs, die er ständig variiert, covert er auch gerne Songs anderer Sänger, wozu er fast immer seine eigene Begleitmusik spielt. Es gibt nur wenige Musiker wie ihn, denen es gelingt, aus sehr guten Liedern noch bessere zu machen. Darüber hinaus besitzt er große Fähigkeiten als Entertainer und Schauspieler, ist weltoffen und grundgescheit und eine der faszinierendsten und inspirierendsten Persönlichkeiten, die mir jemals untergekommen sind. Seine Reife entspricht keineswegs seinem Alter. Jemand hat ihn einmal „eine alte Seele in einem jungen Körper“ genannt, und das beschreibt ihn wohl am besten. Weshalb ich ihn für ein Genie halte, habe ich im gleichnamigen Spezialartikel erklärt. Fast könnte man ihn konservativ nennen: Aufgewachsen in einfachen Verhältnissen, bevorzugt er das einfache Leben; unter den Autos mag er Oldtimer, aus der Popmusik schätzt er am meisten jene der 60er- und 70er-Jahre, als sie noch „groß“ war. Er glaubt an Gott, mag Schwarz, ist nachtaktiv und schläft gerne lang. Sein Charme und sein gutes Benehmen machen ihn äußerst liebenswert und verhindern, dass er jemals aus der Rolle fällt.
