In-Depth With The Pentatonic
The pentatonic is probably the most famous scale. Good for beginners, great sounding in the hand of professionals. This lesson covers the basics on pentatonics and shows how can you turn it into a powerful tool!
The Pentatonic1. Theory Pentatonic is a word made up by two words. Penta and tonic, which means it has five tones, five notes. So what exactly is a pentatonic scale? It's nothing more than taking specific 5 notes out of any major scale. Let's see the C Major scale:
*1: You take off the IV(F) and the VII(B) notes of the scale, and you've got the pentatonic. *2: That means the pentatonic is the (I, II, III, V, VI) Well, then.. If the pentatonic is nothing more than the major scale with less notes, why do we even use it? It's great for beginners and it has a different sounding. They're the stronger notes of the scale.. And plus, you can get the blues scale out of it! Okay, Clow, I can make major pentatonic scales.. What about minor scales? Let's take a look at the A Minor scale:
C major: C D E F G A B C *1 C PENTA: C D E G A C *2
*1:Y ou take off the II(B) and the VI(F) notes of the scale, and you've got the pentatonic. *2: That means the pentatonic is the (I, III, IV, V, VII) But honestly, memorizing two different ways of getting the notes out for a pentatonic scale can be confusing. That's why I always calculate everything for the major scale, because it will be the same thing for it's equivalent minor. See the C major pentatonic I just shown? It's just the same as the A minor pentatonic. Try doing that, do the major scale and try to find it's minor mode (or Eolic, which I'll explain later). That will also help to find the pentatonic scale for every mode, following the next part. 2. Shapes Okay, the little bit of theory gone, here's pentatonic shapes for you to practice. Don't worry about fitting them together yet, just practice and get fluent with each one, because that will make it easier to fit them together in the next part of this lesson.
A minor: A B C D E F G A *1 A PENTA: A C D E G A *2

Pentatonics And Modes1. Modes I'll give a brief explanation on modes, so you know what you are crossing over with the pentatonics. What exactly are modes? They are different scales that derive from the Major Scale. They are, in order:
Let's take a look at it in a scale, the C Major:
I : Ionian (the major scale) II : Dorian III: Phrygian IV : Lydian V : Mixolydian VI : Eolic (the minor scale) VII: Locrian
That means the C is the Ionian root, the D is the Dorian root, the E is Phrygian and so on. The G Mixolydian, for example, is nothing more than the C major scale starting on the G.
C major: |C|D | E |F |G|A | B |C| ---------------|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|VII|I|
So how are you supposed to improvise if someone plays a progression in the key of G mixolydian? Or F lydian? You play the C major scale starting on the key you want. And that is true for every other scale. 2. Pentatonics Crossing Over With Modes How the hell do I know what's the pentatonic, for example, for the D Mixolydian?! All you gotta do is find which one is the Ionian(or Eolic if you prefer) for the D Lydian, which is the A major(or F# minor). Why do you learn a bunch of pentatonic boxes? If it's just one scale, why does it have five boxes? That's because those five boxes cover the whole fretboard. Yeah, that's right, you practiced the pentatonic scale across the whole fretboard a bit before in this lesson. But how are they connected? That's simple. Where one box ends, the other one starts. Because pentatonics also have modes. So if you start off the Ionian shape on a pentatonic scale, the next shape that will follow it right up is the Dorian. You can't call them "pentatonic box 1" or "2" anymore, since you know they are actually modes. Here's how they are called:
G mixolydian: |G|A | B |C|D | E |F |G| ---------------|V|VI|VII|I|II|III|IV|V|
But Clow.. You just told us that we are supposed to take the IV and the VII notes off the major scale to obtain the major pentatonic scale, right? 3. Shapes Right. It happens that those notes are the Lydian and the Locrian root notes of the major scale. How can we call a box Locrian-Ionian or Phrygian-Lydian, then? That means you'll have to practice those boxes again, now with the Lydian and the Locrian notes! Here's a chart with every note degree. And with the numbers it gets even easier to see where they fit together:
Locrian-Ionian -> Pentatonic Box 1 Dorian -> Pentatonic Box 2 Phrygian-Lydian -> Pentatonic Box 3 Mixolydian -> Pentatonic Box 4 Eolic -> Pentatonic Box 5
* 1- Ionian root; 2- Dorian root; 3- Phrygian root; 4- Lydian root; 5- Mixolydian root; 6- Eolic root; 7- Locrian root 4. Tip If you're using a 6-string guitar with 24 frets, you can only have 2 notes in the same string (I'm not counting open strings). Like two F's on the high-E string, 1st fret and 13th fret, or on the G string, 10th fret and 22th fret:
Locrian-Ionian Box: |---|(1)|---|-2-| |---|-5-|---|-6-| |-2-|---|-3-|*4*| |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-| Dorian Box: |---|-2-|---|-3-|---| |---|-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-|---| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-|---| |---|-5-|---|-6-|---| |---|-2-|---|-3-|---| Phrygian-Lydian Box: |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-| |-5-|---|-6-|---| |-2-|---|-3-|*4*| |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| Mixolydian Box: |---|-5-|---|-6-| |---|-2-|---|-3-| |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-| |---|-5-|---|-6-| Eolic Box: |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| |(1)|---|-2-|---| |-5-|---|-6-|---| |-2-|---|-3-|*4*| |-6-|---|*7*|(1)|
That means you could start on, for example, a phrygian note in a string and build the box from there since you can find it in only one box per string. For example, the Lydian in the C major scale, which is the F, in the D string:
Fretboard: E|-F-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|-F-|---| B|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| G|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|-F-|---|---|---|---| D|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| A|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| E|-F-|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|-F-|---| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 E|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| B|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| G|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|-F-|---|---| D|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| A|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| E|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24
That means that everytime you hit a Lydian note on the D string, you are on the Mixolydian box. What about, I don't know, the Phrygian note, if I hit it on the G string?
Mixolydian Box: |---|-5-|---|-6-| |---|-2-|---|-3-| |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| Pay attention to the !4! |-3-|!4!|---|-5-| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-| |---|-5-|---|-6-|
Now you're on the Locrian-Ionian box. You can figure out the rest yourself. Those little tricks help you see the whole fretboard covered with the scale you want faster. Great, now that you've practiced those patterns, you can move them to play in any key. You're still thinking pentatonics, but what you've got there is the whole major scale to play with in a different style! Practice, practice, practice!
Locrian-Ionian Box: |---|(1)|---|-2-| |---|-5-|---|-6-| |-2-|---|!3!|*4*| Pay attention to the !3! |-6-|---|*7*|(1)| |-3-|*4*|---|-5-| |*7*|(1)|---|-2-|
In-Depth Pentatonics1. Theory I was just checking some stuff on pentatonics once on my notebook while bored, and I ended up finding out something kind of interesting. For example, let's take the C major scale again:
Ok, the A is the Eolic note, so it's the Minor Scale. It's pentatonic would be A-C-D-E-G-A. That is, how I said before, the same as the major scale without the Lydian and the Locrian root notes. Now let's take a look at a different scale.. Let's say I got the minor scale of the Dorian note:
C major: |C|D | E |F |G|A | B |C| ---------------|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|VII|I|
and then it's pentatonic: D-F-G-A-C Now I'll get the minor scale of the Phrygian note:
D minor: |D | E |F|G | A |Bb|C|D | ---------------|VI|VII|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|
and then it's pentatonic: E-G-A-B-D Note: Pay attention, I'm not getting the Dorian scale, or the Phrygian scale.. I'm getting the minor scale of the Dorian root on the C major scale, and the same with the Phrygian root. Did you notice? The minor pentatonic of the Dorian has the F, which is the Lydian of C.. The minor pentatonic of the Phrygian has the B, which is the Locrian of C. What happens if you add up all those pentatonics? You get the whole C major scale! The same also happens with the major pentatonic of the Lydian and the major pentatonic of the Mixolydian, adding up respectively, the Lydian(logically) and the Locrian.
E minor: |E | F#|G|A | B |C |D|E | ---------------|VI|VII|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|
and then it's pentatonic: F-G-A-C-D
F major: |F|G | A |Bb|C|D | E |F| ---------------|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|VII|I|
and then it's pentatonic: G-A-B-D-E 2. On The Fretboard - Let's take a look at the fretboard with the A minor pentatonic:
G major: |G|A | B |C |D|E |F# |G| ---------------|I|II|III|IV|V|VI|VII|I|
You can start a whole new minor pentatonic box (that means Eolic) at the D and at the E, Dorian and Phrygian respectively. You can start a whole new major pentatonic box (that means Ionian) at the F and at the G, Lydian and Mixolydian respectively. Test them and see how it sounds, adjust them to your style, use the boxes you like the most or just mix them all for the whole C major scale!
Fretboard: E|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---| B|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---| G|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-| D|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-| A|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---| E|---|---|-G-|---|-A-|---|(B)|-C-|---|-D-|---|-E-|(F)|---| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 E|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-| B|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---| G|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-| D|---|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-| A|-x-|---|-x-|---|-x-|---|---|-x-|---|-x-| E|-G-|---|-A-|---|(B)|-C-|---|-D-|---|-E-| 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

After his victories in the Gold Cup and Champion Hurdle last season, Kim Bailey's stable jockey was expected to consolidate his new position in riding's elite during the current campaign. So far, though, he has simply had plenty of time to catch up on his reading. A fall at Sedgefield in October left him with a broken leg, and during his first subsequent ride in Britain, on Eskimo Nel in the Tote Gold Trophy at Newbury in February, he dislocated his right shoulder in a fall at the fifth flight.
Cyrus the Great will be the vehicle as Williamson attempts to end his dreadful run of bad luck in the last race on today's card, a juvenile novice hurdle. "I saw a specialist last night and he was happy for me to return," Williamson said yesterday. "If the shoulder comes out again I will have to be operated on, but I'll just be trying to stay off the ground. I'm just having one ride and I might have a couple on Saturday. We'll just have to see how I get on."
Williamson's luck was no better at the Festival two years ago, when a suspension forced him to watch Flakey Dove, one of his regular mounts, winning the Champion Hurdle under Mark Dwyer. This year, however, it is Dwyer who will be a spectator on the first day at Cheltenham, after he was banned for three days 9,11 and 12 March, by the stewards at Nottingham. The officials decided that Dwyer had used his whip with unreasonable frequency on Master Nova, runner up by just a head to Baronet when 11-8 favourite for the card's novice hurdle.
"I won't appeal as there's no point," Dwyer said later. "It's the first time I've ever been in trouble over misuse of the whip in Britain, though I have been suspended twice in Ireland. It was disappointing not to get just two days as it was my first offence over here and that would have meant not missing the first day of Cheltenham."
Chris Pimlott, Dwyer's agent, said: "At this stage he did not have a confirmed Champion Hurdle mount. It would have been much worse if this ban had affected the other two days of the Festival when he has some really good rides."
A jockey in a better mood was Andrew Thornton, who rode a winner at Ludlow and avoided considerable embarrassment in the process. At the 14th fence in the handicap chase, Thornton's mount Maamur and Tony McCoy, riding Rectory Garden, jumped together, but McCoy seemed sure to hit the deck when his mount made a bad mistake. Thornton, though, reached across and hauled him back into the saddle. "Tony was going out of the back and side door," Thornton said, "And he needed something to grab hold of. It was funny, but it wouldn't have been if he'd beaten me."
Master Oats beat 14 rivals in last year's Gold Cup, but one trainer at least is hoping that rather fewer runners go to post for this year's renewal. General Rusty has not run since his success in the Charisma Gold Cup at Kempton in mid-October and his official rating does not put him within three stones of One Man, but unlike many of the other entries, Charlie Mann's chaser is a confirmed lover of fast ground.
"We will leave him in the Gold Cup just in case it is fast," Mann said yesterday. "Then the likes of Master Oats, Monsieur Le Cure and Imperial Call would come out and it might become just a five or six runner race. It's a long shot but you never know."
In fact, with clear skies over much of Britain and the track at Cheltenham untouched since early December, the odds on Mann getting his wish are shortening by the day.Reuse content

yeah i know, then others have them solved and dont say or mark anything.
That why members should always read forum rules first...
what can you do thats what us staff are for, I guess i can ask Mario to make a reminder announcement, i mean the last thing i want to do is have to warn people for something as silly as this, but if everyone did it that would be a disaster.. but it's usually not that many, comes and goes in waves i guess?

You chose to show none if it is not solved.
And if you have another question it would be best to search it first and if you cant find the results you need then start another topic,
Because it can get confusing sometimes when you start adding more questions to one thread, then if the answer is giving it wont show up in the search either because it's now under a different title withing the same thread as the first question.
So if this is solved say so, i will lock and archive this thread, Then just a start a new thread if you do not find the answer to your next question.

(Coughs to self) A-hem..this story will probably be moved to Mature...maybe next chapter...
This is a story that I am working on with a friend. Most of the story will be written by her...(I'm just helping a bit)
Takes place in the TYL arc, and this is another version of how Byakuran might have felt about Tsuna.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything...except for this cookie (holds out an oreo)
Byakuran's smiled and stretched his hand out to Tsuna who was walking towards him, the other Vongola members following close behind. Before Byakuran was able to say anything a loud bang from a gun covered his words.
There was the smell of blood. Somebody was dying. His ears were ringing as his eyes widened in surprise, fearing for the worst. Of all the victims it could've been, it was Tsuna's body lurched back.
So it really was Tsuna who got shot. ...Why?
Tsuna started to fall, his eyes widened at the surprise attack until he saw Byakuran's equally wide eyes and his ghost of a faded smile as he stretched out his arm. Three seconds felt like hours,...months,...years...
Though grimacing at the pain, Tsuna then smiled and mouthed several words that spelled out 'arrivederci' as his eyes shut, never to open again, when he hit the ground. The surprised Vongola members screamed out and ran to their boss.
Gokudera fell to his knees and cradled Tsuna's limp body screaming, "Jyuudaime!! Please... Jyuudaime!"
As tears streamed out of Goukudera's large green eyes, the salty drops fell on to Tsuna's already cold face. A blue sword rushed out in the speed of lightning and attacked the white demon's subordinates. Yamamoto left a trail of water drops but he moved too fast to see his face.
"hahahaha..." Byakuran laughed as he bowed his head down towards his hands, "Hahahaha... HAHAHAH" Byakuran threw back his head spreading a large smile on his face. This is just another one of those stupid nightmares that plague my mind. Tsuna promised me he would come back...He will...Tsuna please stop joking around...As Byakuran's mind raced with these thoughts, the rest of the Vongola members started to charge in. Byakuran's 4 subordinates including the subordinate that shot Tsuna grabbed Byakuran's arm.
Smiling, the subordinate responsible for the Vongola Jyuudaime's death yelled, "Now is no time to be laughing, sir! We got your father's revenge—those bastards are pretty angry though, we'd better get out of here!"
At the age of 7, Byakuran was told that he would be one of the leaders of a very ancient mafia family. Byakuran had never wanted to be part of this. He wanted a normal family...a normal life. But no matter how many times he protested, kicked, bit, screamed... the end result would always be the same. He WILL be the next leader even if it means using force.
"Come on, we must get there on time to meet Iemitsu," his father, Hiroyuki, growled, pulling on his son's arm impatiently.
Devoid of emotion, the middle schooler could only follow. How long has it been since he had showed even the tiniest bit of emotion ? A week? A month? A year? Byakuran had lost count. It was easy to know what his father was thinking. His father actually had a simple mind. Befriend the family, know its secrets, and destroy it from the inside, that's how he worked.
Byakuran looked at his hands silently. Though appearing clean, they were actually filthy from the many times they had shed blood. He was no longer innocent. It's been like that for quite some time actually.
"Iemitsu-san, I would like to meet my son, Byakuran." Hiroyuki roughly grabbed his son by the shoulder and shoved him out.
Byakuran merely looked up at the friendly face with emotionless eyes.
"He's in high school right now."
I'm in middle school, you lame excuse of a father. But Byakuran only looked on quietly.
Perhaps there was a sudden flash of emotion in his eyes, or his finger twitched, but Iemitsu seemed to see right through him.
He grinned. "High school, huh? Well, that's a shame. My son's only in elementary school." Turning around, he waved at two figures in the distance. "Tsuna! Come over here for a sec!"
It was a mother and a son. They were smiling and laughing happily while sharing an ice cream cone. Byakuran couldn't help but wince at the sight. It had been years since he was that close to his own mother, and even then, she was sickly and never seemed to be awake when he had the time to visit. Now, it was too late. The little boy, he couldn't be older than 7, suddenly waved and hugged his mother one more time before running up to his father. Is that what it's like...to have a mother?
"This is my son, Sawada Tsunayoshi. Tsuna, introduce yourself." And yet, even though they were the same words, Iemitsu's were more gentle, more caring than those of Hiroyuki's.
Tsuna gave a toothy smile. "Ohayo gozaimasu!"
"Byakuran, leave us." Hiroyuki made his name sound as if it were a contagious disease.
"Tsuna, could you go play with Byakuran-kun until I'm done talking?"
"Hai!" Grabbing the older student by the hand, Tsuna dragged him away.
"So Bya-kun, what do you want to play?"
Bya-kun? He merely shrugged. "It doesn't really matter, Tsunayoshi." Either ways, he was too old to be playing with an elementary schooler anyways. It would actually be best if he didn't grow closer to the kid.
"Huh?" Byakuran looked down in surprise. "What?"
"You can call me Tsuna. Everybody does."
He nodded wordlessly. Again, they simply walked for a couple of minutes. Any minute now, and his father would call his name to leave. They sat on a bench.
"It's okay if you don't like me."
"Most of the kids in my school call me stupid and useless," Tsuna confessed sheepishly, "but my mommy told me that everybody changes. Even I can change. I'm going to change from someone useless to someone everybody likes. So I'm going to make you like me someday!"
This child...so innocent...Is this elementary schooler really going to be the next Vongola Jyuudaime? It was pretty ironic, the thought that this kid would soon become the leader of a very dangerous mafia family. The corner of Byakuran's mouth twitched a bit.
"Hey you almost smiled!" Tsuna shouted gleefully. Jumping off the bench, he moved his face closer to Byakuran's. "Smile for me."
Tsuna frowned. Grabbing Byakuran's cheeks, he pulled them upwards into an awkward smile. "You smile too little."
An angry vein popped on the side of Byakuran's head as he also grabbed Tsuna's cheeks and pulled them downward. "And you smile too much."
Pause...the sight of Tsuna frowning and yet smiling at the same time looked too hilarious.
Slowly, Byakuran's cheeks lifted into a real smile as he couldn't control the laughter in him any longer. Tsuna, though appearing to be frowning, giggled as well.
And as he smiled for the first time in years, Byakuran felt more...human again.
"God, they're all monsters! Especially the Guardian of the Cloud and the Guardian of the Mist! Together, they killed half of our minors—the other half just barely got away...I thought they hated eachother!" huffed Byakuran's subordinate. "But the Vongola head is now really dead! Now we just need to get ready to kill the rest of them...Byakuran-sama?"
Byakuran covered his face with his hands, muffling his continuous laughing. Finally he replied in a calm voice "Follow me..." He continued to laugh—but dared not to face his subordinate's direction for fear of losing it there. He turned and walked straight into a dark corridor.
As he did so, the subordinate saw something glistening. Even though it was true that Byakuran was laughing with his usual smirk, there was a silver glint of something, like maybe water on his face.
As they seemed to be shrouded in darkness the subordinate started to feel uncomfortable. Something wasn't right. "Byakuran-sama? Ano, There is something on your face..." and as he reached out, purple eyes glinted in the darkness—in the same moment the subordinate screamed in pain.
His hand hit the wall and slid down and he fell to the floor writhing in pain clutching his stump of a hand. "…Byaku…" The blood spoted face of Byakuran drew closer. The subordinate gasped, his eyes widening in feare not because of his boss' blood covered smirk, but because of the tears that slowly ran down his face...
"Who told you to shoot?" whispered Byakuran as his smile grew wider, but it was no longer a happy smile. It was twisted with malice and anger. "Was it that old geezer's ghost or something?"
"Sorry, I don't forgive..."
Byakuran let a white light swirl around his ring then lifted his subordinate's face, "you have to die for me...heh"
Blood squirted from every direction from what used to be a human. Byakuran's once white and silver clothes was splattered with blood. I really am a monster...
He used his hands to wip away his red tears, smearing red blotches all over his face. The smirk was still glued to his face as he strode out of the dark corridor where he met Shouichi sitting down on the near by passageway listening to his headphones.

The Nebra sky disk is a bronze disk of around 30 cm diameter and a weight of 2.2 kg, with a blue-green patina and inlaid with gold symbols. These are interpreted generally as a sun or full moon, a lunar crescent, and stars (including a cluster interpreted as the Pleiades). Two golden arcs along the sides, marking the angle between the solstices, were added later. A final addition was another arc at the bottom surrounded with multiple strokes (of uncertain meaning, variously interpreted as a Solar Barge with numerous oars, as the Milky Way, or as a rainbow).

Stars' First Jobs Before They Were Famous [PHOTOS]
You may be surprised to learn how many of the rich and famous actually started out folding T-shirts at the Gap, scrubbing floors or flipping burgers before they made it big.

Miley Cyrus threw a party celebrating her beloved late husky, Floyd, who passed away exactly one year ago today (April 1).
Fans who stopped by Mike Will Made-It's SXSW set on Thursday (March 19) got a special treat — a surprise cameo by Miley Cyrus!
Kelly Clarkson played "Plead the Fifth" on Watch What Happens Live last night (March 5) -- and gave us a ton of interesting tidbits about her life! One of the most interesting moments was when host Andy Cohen brought up allegations that Kelly called Miley Cyrus a "pitchy stripper."
What's a fool-proof way to grab Miley Cyrus' attention? Making a video of yourself twerking in the hopes that she'll attend your prom, of course.
Miley Cyrus paid tribute to singer-songwriter Paul Simon during the 'Saturday Night Live' 40th Anniversary Special by performing his 1975 hit, '50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.'
We knew going in that the SNL 40th anniversary special would be chock-full of just about every famous person who has ever walked within spitting distance of 30 Rockefeller Plaza and the opening monologue was quick to make use of this genuinely insane temporary cast of stars. Things got started on the right foot when the always-welcome Steve Martin took the stage ... but then he was joined by Tom Hanks. And then things got really crazy.
Miley Cyrus' 'Bangerz' is up for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 2015 Grammy Awards -- but Miley didn't even believe she was really nominated at first.
Ever wonder why Miley Cyrus is always photographed sticking her tongue out? We found explanations for celebs' odd red carpet behavior.
Some of fashion's biggest stars turned out for the Daily Front Row's Fashion Los Angeles Awards last night. Check out photos of Miley Cyrus, Rihanna and more!
Miley Cyrus has released quite a number of increasingly scandalous polaroids to V magazine.

Perfect location! And the front door was fixed immediately when I called and told them it was almost falling out of the frame. This is clearly an appartment if you don't care if things look worn down, and are not very picky about how the shower looks. In other words; To be used for sleeping and luggage storage.
Great apartment with lots of spare. Placed just 5 minutes from Undergrund Aldgate East. Tesco Express next to underground and very nice restaurant Old Moe's.
Nice and quiet area with nearly No traffic.
Checking in was easy and Illona at the office was very helpful.
We will be back for sure and give this place our best recommandations.

It was an awesome weekend in Prague and so was the appartment too!!! We got exactly that what we booked and what we saw on the pictures. The communication was kindly and we got answer within one day. I can just recommend this appartment and the team around of Katarina.
Thank you
Apartment and location were pretty good. Wifi is horrible, there are couple of stairs and specially getting the keys is very complicated. Is not that easy for someone who arrives the first time to get them in a place far from the apartment. Plus flat wasnt B21, was B12 so its kind of confusing.
The apartment was perfect! It was clean, big and very closed to the city centre and to the San Venceslao square. We were in 7 adults and there was enough space for all of us. Nothing negative to say. I will return in this apartment during my next trip in Prague.

I will return in this apartment during my next trip in Prague.
It was a lovely apartment with plenty of space. It was also situated in a very quiet area close to old town square. It couldn't be better.
Perfect location! We where 6 adult staying for 3 nights. The flat is big (I'd guess bigger than stated 130 Square) with good planning. Nice old flat that could have benefited from a tad better shape but still really good.
Nice and charmning apartment that had all the needed equipment. The location could not be better! It was a pleasure to walk outside the door and be in the middle of Prague! Nice service from Katarina and the whole team around Old Town Apartments.
We were very good . The apartment is very spacious , in zone 1 , very equipped and clean although I do not like the carpet . I recommend it to everybody.

Easy to drive route. Roads are well maintained compared to Oahu. Too many pot holes on Oahu. Kauai roads much nicer. Drivers are more patient and Curtious.

Kauai Like a Native
Outside of landing at the airport and picking up your rental car, you aren't going to spend much time in Lihue. It doesn't feel like you're on Kauai being in Lihue, but it is a place where you can drop by a Walmart, and pick up some bottled water, etc...because that stuff is going to cost you at the hotels....
Lihu'e is one of the prettiest of the Hawaiian islands. Beautiful waterfalls and canyon. Easy to get around by car. Definitely worth a visit.
This is not a fun sexy town where you hang. You get in, get off, get out and don't come back till you leave.
This is not Kaua'i. It is the most developed and commercialized area on tge island. Home to numerous shopping areas, major port and airport. It is filled with many of the stores and fast food restaurants you have left behind on the mainland. To see the real Kaua'i you must get outside of Lihue.
Landing at the airport in Lihu'e makes us go "ahhhhh", because we are on our favorite island of Kauai. There are many places to stay, shop, and visit here and in the immediate vicinity. Being an ocean location and port, there is a lot of activity, tours and water sports as well. And hotels and resorts if every description. Hiking...
This is a phenomenal place on Kauai. It's literally walking distance from the airport, and it's a great jumping off point for anything you want to do on the island it's very centrally located, and it has amazing beaches!
Lihue is the place everyone should visit, everywhere you go from there is as beautiful as you can find anywhere.
Best city in hawaii in our opinion. not over crouded like most of the touristy cities. i highly recommend it
Stayed only 2 nights as a side trip after visit to Honolulu. Should stay here first when luggage is much lighter due to shopping. We hired a car from Australia and picked it up at the airport. We traveled 300miles around the island in one day. Went to the west first and visited the lookouts to view the Pacific Grand...

A Wilander interview is always worth a read. Prior to Roland Garros 2015, Mats Wilander opened up to Roland Garros Magazine about his three victories in Paris, Bjorn Borg, and the futile notion of the result.
Bjorn Borg:
My first image of Roland Garros is from the TV. It's me as a kid then as a teenager, watching Bjorn Borg's finals glued to the screen. I'm not sure as to whether I saw the first, against Manuel Orantes. I am certain I watched the next four though. At the time, there were only two TV channels in Sweden, but we certainly never missed one of Borg's matches.
The whole of Sweden was proud of what Bjorn Borg achieved. He wasn't a star as such – he was beyond that, too big to fit that description. He was inaccesible, out of reach. For us in Sweden, he was the greatest player of all time, the hold he had on the two biggest tournaments in the world, Roland Garros and Wimbledon, was unheard of. And who cares if he never won the US Open. On a personal level, he wasn't my idol. I preferred Jimmy Connors, Ilie Nastase and other less legendary players like Adriano Panatta and Guillermo Vilas. But Borg was a cut above the rest. There was something unreal about him.
1981, Roland Garros juniors' title:
That year I won the juniors' title, seeing off some hefty competition. If my memory serves me correctly, I beat Pat Cash, Miloslav Mecir and then Henri Leconte in the final. I had already stopped playing in most junior tournaments. I had been to Wimbledon once the previous year when I was 16 and lost in the first round, and I'd never played the Australian or US Open. To me it was a big win and I savoured it all the more since I knew that it was my last junior tournament. My coach Jan-Anders Sjogren and I had decided to make the step up after Roland Garros. And I have this memory after winning the juniors final of leaving No.1 Court to go to Centre Court and watch the last set of the final between Borg and Ivan Lendl.
What a moment that was. Seeing Bjorn Borg, in the flesh, win his sixth French Open. It was the first time that I saw him live on the court that had been the scene of his finest achievements, and he polished off the last set of the final 6-1.
1982, first Roland Garros title:
Despite my win in the juniors' the previous year and my semi-final in Rome coming into the tournament, no-one thought of course, but that was all, that's where it stopped. The pressure was on other people's shoulders. I just did what I did best – I felt at home on clay, I never got tired and I played at the same level from the third round all the way through to the final. The fact that my level never slipped meant that my opponents must have thought that they were playing the ghost of Borg, and they couldn't keep their emotions in check when they were confronted by this situation. They just couldn't manage it. They were playing me but for them it must have been like facing Borg junior, with all the unpleasant memories that this brought back! Particularly for Guillermo in the final, he must have thought that he was stuck in a nightmare, reliving his defeats to Bjorn.
Roland Garros 1982 represented my scent to adulthood. I was a kid whe I arrived, but after a fortnight I'd become a man. To be exact the whirlwind started coming into the tournament. I came in from Rome where I'd lost in the semis to Andres Gomez. My coach and I drove there overnight due to an Alitalia strike so I got to Paris on the Sunday morning, just in time to hot-foot it over to Roland Garros, where I could practice on Centre Court for the first time in my life. And surprise, surprise, the player waiting for me on the other side of the net was Jimmy Connors.
I was tired, after the journey and all that, but he didn't care. We had a hit-out for half an hour, then we played a practice set. And I took the lead and found myself 4-1 up. Suddenly Connors stopped, came towards me, and pointed at me, yelling: "You're a fucking cocksucker!" I turned to Jan-Anders and said: "Did you hear that?" "I heard it, just ignore him!" How could I ignore it? "fucking cocksucker…" That's how it all began – a kid being insulted by Jimmy Connors. And then, two weeks later I won Roland Garros. This tournament made me grow up double quick. There was the insult from Connors, my win over Lendl – how did I manage to beat Lendl? I didn't think I stood a chance! My fourth round match against Ivan was the last piece of the puzzle. After that, I told myself that I could be Gerulaitis, then Clerc in the semis, and then Vilas in the final … and I won.
1983, defeat to Yannick Noah:
There were a few defeats in my career where I didn't feel depressed afterwards. This was the case in the final of the Australian Open 1985, against Stefan Edberg. And then there was Yannick. Of course I thought that I could win. I was the best player in the world on clay at the time.
In the space of a year, from the start of Roland Garros 1982 until the final in 1983, I'd only lost two matches on the surface, so obviously I was disappointed to lose. Disappointed, but not depressed, no. Yannick, was … different. He had a passion for what he did. He was always a nice guy in the locker-room, full of smiles. He was always the one to get the players' parties started. I later found out that we shared a love of music. He wasn't just a tennis player – not that this stopped him from being excellent out on court. He was a cool guy. So when we bumped into each other on the night after the final in a nightclub called Le Duplex, I wasn't sad in any way. I'd lost to a great guy. And when someone plays better than me, I don't see what the problem is. He'd earned his victory. On the contrary: in hinsight, I learned a lot from this match and the way Yannick played on clay. Seeing him play, I understood that I couldn't just hang back on the baseline if I wanted to win as I was neglecting too many interesting options – backhand and forehand slice, coming into the net when the opponent didn't expect it. In a certain sense, I owe him all these things that helped me win another six Grand Slam titles, despite the fact that there was such strong competition at the time.
1985, victory over Ivan Lendl:
The 1985 French Open was perhaps my most important title. First of all in the terms of quality of the opponent I faced – Thierry Tulasne to start with, Boris Becker in the second round, Tomas Smid in the round of 16, Henri Leconte in the quarters, John McEnroe in the semis and then Lendl in the final. Such a tough draw. During the final, I totally changed my tactics for the first time ever, leaving the baseline and coming in to the net. I came to the net so many times. On clay. At the time, none of the specialists on the surface ever risked that. Maybe Victor Pecci at a push, but Pecci couldn't play from the baseline so he had to come in. But for a player with a reputation as a solid baseliner to suddenly choose to rush into the net, on clay… It was so unexpected that it worked. I still had to wait another three years after that to win my next Grand Slam. But I'd chosen the right way to go. Ivan had become better than me at playing from the baseline. He'd started inflicting some heavy defeats on me, at Roland Garros, at the US Open… I'd lost ground and I needed to come up with something different. And it worked.
1988, victory over Henri Leconte:
In a way this was the most expected of my seven Grand Slam victories. Everyone said that I was going to beat Henri. It's true that I was enjoying a purple patch at the time – I had already won the Australian Open at the beginning of the year and I felt that I could go on and add Roland Garros to the list. Particularly since Lendl had lost quite early in the tournament to Jonas Svensson, "Mr Drop-shot". But I still find it difficult to analyse this final. People didn't realise that if Henri had won the first set – and he came pretty close – there was every chance that the match would go the full five. And there, who knows, Henri was playing extremely well at the time, and even though I played a good match and was very solid throughout the three sets, Henri collapsed so spectacularly from the second set onwards that I can't say that it was just down to me.
World number one:
From the age of 1, tennis had been the most important element in my life, but as time went by, I was driven less by the notion of pleasure than I was by victory, with the result becoming more important than the way I played. When I reached No. 1 in the world in 1988, I'd achieved my goal and I didn't have the motivation any more to go down that road. So I decided to go back to the well and rediscover the simple pleasure of just hitting a ball and the almost childlike sensation of playing a nice point. The result was no longer the most important aspect. Personally, these years helped build me. They are an important part of my life and my career, even if that can't be measured in the number of titles I won. I learned a lot when my status changed from start to just another player. I also had a lot of highlights, and I think that I earned people's respect by living the same way whether I was centre stage or behind the scenes.
The last years:
My favourite memory as a player comes from that second part of my career – right at the end of my career actually. It was in 1995. I'd lost to Wayne Ferreira out on Court Suzanne Lenglen, 8-6 in the fifth. We'd played for something like five hours and I was out on my feet. And I just had to go back to the locker room, have a shower, put on another pair of shorts and a t-shirt and I was back out to play doubles with Karel Novacek. We beat Tomas Carbonell and Francisco Roig 14-12 in the third set! I was exhausted. I went back to the locker-room and there everyone got to their feet and applauded me, shouting "Well done, Mats!" I have to say that it took my breath away. A first round loss, a first round win… It didn't matter, it was cool and it went beyond the futile notion of the result. All I remember is that unique moment where all these guys around me were congratulating "the old fellah".
Source: Roland Garros Magazine
By David Irvine, The Guardian, Monday June 6 1988
It is perhaps an apt comment on their contrasting sense of priorities, as well as their ability (or otherwise) to play their best tennis when it matters most, that Mats Wilander, who has never been ranked number 1 in the world, now holds as many Grand Slam titles as Ivan Lendl, the world champion since 1985.
Yesterday the 23-year-old Swede claimed his sixth major singles championship, and his third on the red clay of the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, when he cut the charging Henri Leconte's challenge to ribbons by 7-5 6-2 6-1 in the most one-sided final since his distinguished compatriot Bjorn Borg, annihilated Vitas Gerulaitis in 1980.
Wilander, a quiet and self-effacing man who has never been fully appreciated by British audiences – his best performance was to reach the quarter-finals last year – is nevertheless the only player yet to win major championships on red clay, grass and synthetic surfaces.
But heading the computer, a favourite topic of Lendl's, has never bothered Wilander. When he said as much, John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors were appalled, but his views have not changed.
"It's always been more important to me to win the big events; that's what really counts. To get to no.1 you have to win almost every tournament you play, and that's not my style any more. But now I've won two Grand Slams in a year for the fist time, so the next step has to be the US Open and Wimbledon."
Indeed Wilander is now halfway to completing the first Grand Slam since Rod Laver in 1969. "But that's still a dream" he admitted, "although I have to recognise that the chance is there."
Many wondered if his superb five-set victory over Pat Cash in the final of the Australian Open at the new Flinders Park stadium in January indicated that he had changed his game too much to maintain his supremacy on clay.
But Wilander, whose closest call came when he met Slobodan Zivojinovic, gave an emphatic answer to such speculation by resisting Leconte's first-set challenge before overwhelming him.
"I was a bit worried when he served for the first set at 5-4" said Wilander, "but not, I feel, as mch as he was. When I won the first set that was it. After that he was far too tense."
This showed in a French flood of backhand errors, while his own passing shots, hit with deadly accuracy from either side, were never better.
A low-level pass by the Patrouille de France, the Gallic equivalent of the Red Arrows, celebrated 100 years since the birth of Roland Garros and brought a sense of anticipation to the occasion which Leconte whipped to a climax as he broke Wilander to love at 4-4.
But the journey from climax to anticlimax was swift. Wilander broke back, took the set and proceeded to make Leconte look as out of place in a final as Steffi Graf had done to Natalia Zvereva 24 hours earlier.
Wilander said that although he was aware that Leconte was not regarded with the same hero-worship as Yannick Noah, he was surprised that the crowd "were not really there when he needed them most."
Jean Borotra, who will be 90 in August, and his 87-year-old fellow musketeer René Lacoste, the losing finalist when the stadium was first used 60 years ago, presented Wilander with the trophy and the winner's cheque for £150,000.

Excellent doctor
I have been a patient of Dr. Parveen for many years. I met her at a very difficult time in my life. She has been a true blessing in my life since that time. Dr. Parveen cares about her patients and their mental and physical well-being. Her compassion and understanding makes it easy to open up to her. She gives you the time you need at each appointment. She takes the time to really get to know you. She is patient and listens carefully to what you have to say. I listen to her advice with confidence because of her experience, knowledge, and true concern for her patients.

Dr. Parveen was my state assigned therapist.. so perhaps this is why i had such an opposite experience as the other views? at one point i tried to open up to her about the homophobia in my family that led to my case and she verbatim told me "I do not know what the word homophobia means." Seeing that she exhibited excellent knowledge of every other medical term and she is very fluent in english (although originally from bangledesh) i have to assume she just didn't care about the homosexual struggle and probably has a problem with homosexuals. so yeah.. NOT VERY HELPFUL.

Dr Parveen gave me my life back. With her expertise in medications and her insightful and helpful comments, she enabled me to resume a normal life after years of depression and snxiety (my psychosis was treated by the old meds). Dr Parveen cares about her patients. She is diligent in supervising their treatment.

In Ubertino Da Casale's The Tree of the Crucified Life of Jesus written in 1305 is found a passage worthy of Franciscan vocation discernment. Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity offer an exerpt from Book 5, Chapter 4 as a prayer of love this Advent, Christmas season.
I beg you, Lord, let the glowing and honey-sweet force of Your love draw my mind away from all things that are under heaven, that I may die for love of the love of You, who thought it a worthy thing to die for love of the love of me.
(This prayer has been included in past collections of St. Francis' writings. Its authenticity is no longer accepted, however, as it is , it is a proven earlier medieval composition of patristic inspiration.)
Therefore, those sons [daughters] who have been fashioned in the likeness of their father, by the fire of his seraphic vision, must understand that their fashioning has to take place in their soul and be carried out by the glowing crucifixion of Jesus. So they will be living their lives like "little Christs," smaller figures of Jesus, as it were, perceiving themselves in their mortal flesh transformed into Christ.
(Like Francis and Clare, we are called to be "little Christs" in our world. Are you? We invite you to our February Vocation Discernment Retreat. Click here for more information.)

Series II: School Lunch - Hawaii's Farm to School Initiative
April 25, 2017 | 6pm - 9pm | THE MODERN HONOLULU
We learn, share, and are inspired by the many thoughtful conversations that happen over the dining table. From sparking new approaches to old challenges, finding the middle ground on opposing issues, to taking action in your neighborhood, HAF hopes to engage and empower communities on food, agriculture and change with EAT THINK DRINK: School Lunch - Hawaii's Farm to School Initiative.
The evening kicks-off with an insightful discussion on agricultural and institutional strategies regarding food offerings in schools from chefs, educators, and policymakers.

School Lunch will bring leaders from Hawaii, as well as from other communities, together to share the real opportunities and challenges of implementing farm to school initiatives.
Enjoy dishes prepared by four of Hawaii's most innovative and inspiring chefs who will tell their own story on a plate. Dishes will be paired with an assortment of beverages by Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits.

Anyone who owns a BMW knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the most superior replacement parts will do. Car aficionados appreciate the luxury built into each BMW, and understand that only the highest quality replacement Z8 parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for BMW vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to repair your car or truck. The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace.
Your BMW Z8 disc brake pads are the result of decades of innovation and testing on race tracks before finally making their way to daily drivers. They provide a more effective style of braking because of how they create friction than the brake shoes they eventually replaced. You will find your vehicle's brake pads in the caliper situated around a portion of your brake rotor. Hydraulic pressure from your master cylinder is transferred to the caliper, and it presses the disc brake pads against the rotor surface causing heat and friction. This transfer of energy slows your car or truck down, and will quickly stop it.
Procuring new BMW parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are taking advantage of the most superior original and aftermarket replacement Z8 parts on the internet. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents on the phone with enough expertise to help you select the appropriate BMW Z8 part for your needs. Don't let a broken Disc Brake Pads spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by buying anything but the highest quality replacement parts. Need 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000 BMW Z8 Disc Brake Pads parts? We've got them right here.
