CANTILLATION:(Redirected from CHANTING.)
Mode of intonation used in public recital of prayers and Holy Scripture. The infinite gradations of tone in ordinary speech serve to bring home to the listener the interrelation and coordination of the words used by the speaker. Even when the listeners do not exceed the small circle that can be reached by the ordinary speaking voice, the delicate shade of meaning to be conveyed by the structure adopted for the sentence will not be appreciated by them unless certain conventionalities of pitch are introduced in utterance. These conventionalities of pitch result in an elementary form of song, and thus became early known as "singing to speech" (προσωδία, accentus). But when a larger audience is addressed the assistance of a sing-song utterance in marking this accent or prosody, and rendering the precise interdependence of the successive words unmistakable, has been recognized by all who have ever had to speak in the open air or in a large building, and has been from the earliest ages adopted for the public recitation of sacred texts. Among Jews the desire to read the Scriptures in the manner described in Neh. viii. 8 has from time immemorial resulted in the use of some sort of musical declamation. This mode of recitation, depending not upon the rhythm and sequence of the sounds chanted, but upon the rhythm and sequence of the syllables to which they are chanted, is known as cantillation.
In describing synagogal chanting, it is necessary to distinguish the intonation traditionally employed for the text of the prayers—the component sounds of which are dependent upon the momentary impulse of the reader, checked only by the fixed melody of the coda with which the benediction concludes—from the intonation traditionally employed for the text of the Scriptural lessons (the elements of which are rigidly fixed). The first is discussed in the general article on Music, Synagogal, under the heading "Prayer-Motives." The cantillation which is here described forms the musical interpretation of the Accents which accompany the text of the Hebrew Scriptures.The Chant Preceded Its Notation.
These signs,
The earliest reference to the definite modulation of the Scripture occurs in the Babylonian Talmud (Meg. 32a), where R. Johanan deprecates the indifference of such as "read [the text] without tunefulness and repeat [the Mishnah] without song." The use of the term
If the cantillation was already tuneful to contemporary ears, the way had been cleared for its hermeneutic application to the text. The vocal phrases which constituted its melodious element would, by their distinctness from the monotone recitation which joined them into tuneful succession, serve to bring out the logical and syntactical importance of the syllables sung to them from among the othersyllables comparatively slurred over on one note. "In this way the music was made to mark not only the broad lines, but the finest shades of distinction in the sense; and when its signs were introduced into the text, they were also the signs of interpunction; no others were needed" (Wickes). For a long time no such signs, however, were necessary: the cantillation was transmitted orally, and teachers were recognized whose profession it was to give instruction in "the pausal system of the accentuation" (Ned. 37a). But precisely as in the case of the plain-song of the churches, memoriœ technicœ were gradually introduced in the private scrolls of individual masters, probably at a very early date—later crystallizing into the Babylonian and Palestinian systems of Accents. Before this necessity for a notation was generally felt, a system of manual signs had been developed (Ber. 62a), just as in the Greek Church, where it was called the χειρονομία ("Manuum variis motibus altitudinem, depressionem, flexus vocis significabant"); and the system survived into the Middle Ages, being referred to by Ben Asher (
This chironomy, like that of the churches, must have been based upon the rise and fall of the finger as the notes employed seemed to rise and to fall in succession. However much the point and straight line, as in the fifth-century Syriac system, may have been utilized for the bases of notation, yet the manual movements and the written signs must often have mutually counteracted (compare "Manuel du Lecteur," ed. J. Derenbourg, p. 16). In its present state, however, calligraphy rarely depicts the rise and fall of the voice, for the accents are intended only to remind readers of certain intonations they have already learned by ear. So the signs do not designate any tonal value or any sort of succession of notes, but only that a conventional series of sounds are to be grouped on a syllable in a certain manner.
Attempts have been made to reconstitute the oldest form of the cantillation by J. C. Speidel ("Spuren von der Alten Davidischen Sing-Kunst," Waiblingen, 1740), C. G. Anton (in Paulus' "Neues Repertorium für Biblische Litteratur," Jena, 1790), L. Haupt ("Sechs Alttestamentliche Psalmen," Görlitz, 1854), and L. Arends ("Ueber den Sprachgesang der Vorzeit," Berlin, 1867). But as these investigators did not combine that acquaintance at once with Hebrew grammar and history and with synagogal music on which Delitzsch rightly insists for the study of the subject ("Physiologie und Musik in Ihrer Bedeutung für die Grammatik, Besonders die Hebräische," Leipsic, 1868), the fanciful in their conclusions outweighs the probable.One Species Lost.
The Hebrew Bible is now pointed with two systems of accents. Of the system employed in the three poetical books,
This parallelism of divergent forms results in several divergent musical interpretations being given to the accents in each Minhag or rite traditional among Jews since the Middle Ages (remarked before 1444 in S. Duran's
All this suggests that a similar principle may have underlain the cantillation of the Psalms in the Temple at Jerusalem, and attracts attention to the suggestions thrown out on literary grounds by Haremberg ("Lips. Misc. Nova," 1753, ix. 2, p. 218 et seq.) and by Grätz ("Psalmen," 1882, p. 71) that other headingsof the Psalms besides Gittith (viii., lxxxi.) refer to music known by the name of a particular district, according to the old Greek custom and that of Eastern races. It may be surmised that the Masoretes were no longer acquainted with that practise of the older musical school which superscribed a Psalm with the geographical name of the scale in which it was to be sung, because the liturgical Psalms nearer the close of the Canon, the chant of which may have been still known, or may have been more definite in melody form, bore no such superscription. But if the practise of later Jews (found equally among the various traditions which then had not yet diverged) of using a different tonality for each class of religious occasion had already prevailed in Temple times, it could be understood why Psalms would be headed with geographical expressions such as Gathite (viii., lxxxi.); Eolian of the East (xxii.); Susian (xlv., lx., lxix., lxxx.); Elamite (ix., xlvi.); Ionian (Jawanit) (lvi.); perhaps the headings of Ps. vi. and lvii., with others similarly superscribed, might be referred to the same class of technical musical rubric. In any case, scale-forms similar to these ancient ones were, and are, used by all Jews, according to the sacred day, for the cantillation now designated by the Accents.
The modes employed in the prayer-motives will be discussed with them, but the modes for the cantillation may be summarized as follows, if the Gregorian nomenclature is used.
|Scriptural Reading.
|Lamentations, etc.
In all these varied systems of musical interpretation of the same signs each particular accent is associated with a parallel vocal figure or trope, which consists of a group of notes forming a melismatic phrase. The accents, and consequently the tropes, are either conjunctive or disjunctive. Some of the disjunctive tropes form not so much a note-group, to be sung at one effort of the voice, as a series of such groups, or what is known in plain-song as a jubilation. Sometimes a minor conjunctive will in chanting be absorbed into the more important disjunctive which may follow it; but, as a rule, one accent designates one trope, and each word (save only the few enclitics) has a trope sung upon its tone-syllable, the more immediately connected conjunctives and disjunctives running on smoothly together into a "distinction" or phrase. If the word has a penultimate accent, the last note is, where necessary, repeated; and any syllables preceding the accented syllable are recited on a note of the trope introduced for the purpose in front of the note bearing the stress, and serving to "carry on" from trope to trope, blending the several
Now, if the following text be taken for cantillation according to its accents—
On the Penitential Days, however, it would be chanted with jubilations of similar outline to each accent, but the intervals of the scale drawn from quite another mode, as follows:
But, again, had this passage from Gen. xxix. formed a portion of a lesson from the Prophets (Hafṭarah), its accents would have been musically interpreted in similar style, but in yet another tonality; thus:
The coda added to each of the above transcriptions shows the form of the "jubilation" which ends each section of the reading, a sort of musical "Here endeth the lesson," varying in figuration as well as in tonality according to the importance of the service.Old Descriptions.
It is not always certain whether the names of the accents were given to them from their shape, position, and function, or from the outline and tone of the musical sounds for which they are the notation. Words in any case rarely succeed in describing the effect of musical sounds with any approach to accuracy; and only inadequate impressions of the con temporary jubilations in use can be derived from the few statements preserved in the writings of Ben Asher, Shem-Ṭob, and Moses Provençale. Delitzsch (Psalms i., p. 44, English ed.) sums these up as follows: "Pazer and Shalshelet have a like intonation, which rises quaveringly; though Shalshelet is drawn out longer—about a third longer than that of the prose books. Legarmeh (in form Mahpaḳ or Azla, followed by Pesiḳ) has a clear high tone; before Ẓinnor, however, it is deeper and more broken; Rebia magnum has a soft tone, tending to repose [query: sinking to a rest-note]. In Ṣilluḳ the tone is raised at first, and then sinks to repose. The tone of Merka is, according to its name, andante [query, protracted] and sinking into the depths; the tone of Ṭarḥa corresponds with adagio." All that can be gathered from this is that the accents of the three poetical books were meant to be interpretedby much the same figuration of notes as those of the twenty-one prose books. Of these last similar descriptions are to be found in old writers (compare Kalonymus ben David in A. de Balmes'
The "repetition with song" (see above), or study of religious literature in a vocal intonation, similarly survives from the Talmudical age to the present day. But it was never so developed for the small audience in the house of study as was the Scriptural cantillation for the larger congregation in the house of prayer. Private notes in the copy of the individual here likewise originated a system of accentuation. Examples are referred to by the Tosafists and by Profiat Duran; and an accentuated copy of the Mishnah was possessed by Joseph Solomon Medigo in the seventeenth century. Indeed, one treatise of the Mishnah was printed with accents as late as 1553. The oldest extant manuscript of the Talmud, a fragment of Keritot, is marked with accents for the students' cantillation, and can be examined in the facsimile published in Singer and Schechter's "Rabbinical Fragments." Nothing, however, is known of any musical interpretation of these accents. The students' cantillation in present use varies according to the country of origin, but is more or less a mere drone, although the monotone is always abandoned at the end of the clause, according as it expresses a question or a reply, a doubt or a conclusion. Generally the question ends on the dominant, the reply on the tonic.
The earliest transcription of a students' cantillation is to be found in the Ḥeleḳ of the apostate Gerson of Halberstadt (Helmstadt, 1610), where he says that "almost the whole of the Talmud is set out in question and answer as follows." Put into modern notation, his transcription is as given on page 549.
The students' cantillation has been carried into domestic worship in the Haggadah, the child's question on the Passover Eve being often set out in it. The transcription on the following page is due to Baer ("Ba'al Tefillah," p. 170).
- The grammatical force of the accents is treated under Accents. Almost every compilation of synagogue music covering the whole year includes some transcription of the cantillation, if only of the Pentateuch.
- Fuller and more careful summaries are due to Naumbourg, Recueil de Chants Religieux, Paris, 1874, and Baer, Der Praktische Vorbeter, Gothenburg, 1877, and Frankfort, 1882.
- For the general consideration of the melody of the accents see Wickes, Poetical Accentuation, Oxford, 1881, and Prose Accentuation, ib. 1887.
- Useful references are collected in Ackermann, Der Synagogale Gesang (I. Das Talmudische Zeitalter), in Winter and Wünsche, Jüdische Litteratur, vol. iii., Treves, 1894.
- For the musical accentuation of later texts see Steinschneider, Jewish Lit. p. 154;
- Dukes, in Literaturblatt des Orients, 1843-1844;
- and Abrahams, in Jew. Quart. Rev. xi. 291, London, 1899.

A bevelline with horizontal and vertical text
Posted by Hans B|hler
The class described here replaces my former issue cdxCBevelLine.
This class provides the following options:
- A bevel line even if user has strange fonts
(have you ever created a sunken static with a height of 1 for a bevelline and tested your program on a machine that has 200% larger fonts ?).
- Text rotates appropiately (usable with any font).
- Reacts properly on WM_ENABLEWINDOW.
- Might be used as an example for my cdxCRot90DC (which you may find in the misc section of codeguru's).
How to use (in a dialog):
- Add cdxCRotBevelLine.h, cdxCRotBevelLine.cpp, cdxCRot90DC.h and cdxCRot90DC.cpp to your project.
- Add a static control to your dialog resource.
Enter some appropiate text to it.
If your static's width is greater than its height the bevelline will appear horizontal, vertical otherwise.
If the bevelline is drawn vertically, the text is rotated by 900 degrees by default (left hand examples of upper image).
To modify this, put a "~" in front of your control text (right hand bevels in the upper image).
- Change its ID to something like IDC_BEVEL_1, open classwizard and assign a member variable, type control (CStatic) to it ("m_wndBevel1" for example).
- Open your dialog class' header file.
Add #include "cdxCRotBevelLine.h".
Find the line "CStatic m_wndBevel1;" and replace the "CStatic" by "cdxCRotBevelLine".
- Compile and run.
- This class may even be useful to you if you only need horizontal bevels.
Some people mentioned that it's enough to create a sunken static with a height of 1 (use Alt while sizing the control) and to put another text control over it.
In fact, this will look really strange if the user choosed big fonts for his display - the dialog resource will automatically adapt the the newly found font and your height of 1 may become 3 or stuff - and suddenly friend user doesn't have a bevelline but a sunken static.

There are few things the innerwebs love more than a good leak, and today's goodness comes features design drawings for Captain America's outfit for our hero's upcoming film.
Four renderings of Captain America's new threads found their way to Ain't It Cool News, just days after the guys at Jo Blo had described in detail a personal sneak peek they had gotten of the artwork.
All in all, the new outfit looks pretty cool, with an old-timey vibe that suits Cap's WW II origins. Our only concerns are the slightly odd NASCAR harness he's wearing and the somewhat plasticky sheen to the outfit.
U.S. & World
And concerns about Chris Evans' acting chops aside, there's no denying hew is one handsome fella.
With "Captain America: The First Avenger" not due until July 22, 2011, there's a good chance this will evolve, and if it doesn't, it's still a fine looking uni.

An issue with a knee problem arose during his medical on Tuesday, resulting in the Toffees returning to the Dutch side with different terms.
Everton wanted to pay the £8.6million fee in instalments dependent on certain criteria being achieved, but Twente would not accept that and as a result the deal is off.
Fer, 23, is nicknamed 'The Bouncer' because of his combative style in the middle of the park and was poised to become Everton's first signing of the January transfer window.
However, the Dutch international missed almost two months of the Eredivisie season after sustaining a knee injury on Holland duty in September.
Everton were obviously concerned about the long-term prognosis and wanted to protect themselves against future problems.
Everton chief executive Robert Elstone told Sky Sports News: "(It's) very sad. We were very excited about the prospect of Leroy Fer coming to Goodison but the transfer didn't go smoothly in the end, there were issues.
"We have to put the club first. Our track record shows we do that pretty well. We thought long and hard about it and it didn't work out."
Twente chairman Joop Munsterman had expressed his unhappiness with Everton holding up the deal.
"Everton have additional requirements on the method of payment. Here we do not agree. It's stuck,'' Munsterman was quoted as saying by De Telegraaf. "We don't play that game at Twente. They can come up with any demand they wish but we're not playing along with their demands."

Lorraine – Boy's Night Out (1993) sold for $641.36!
A lot of money for an indie CD that could be hit or miss. The buyer is a major collector and posts at the Heavy Harmonies Forums. He had some money to burn so the trigger was pulled, that's almost what I pay for rent each month.
Iron Maiden – The Soundhouse Tapes (2002 reissue) sold for $660!
Not to be outdone by the Lorraine CD, this 2002 special CD reissue of Maiden's highly sought after vinyl E.P. fetched 33 bids. This CD was available via mailorder when you collected 6 special Eddie stickers from the 2002 reissue campaign for all the Maiden albums. Add postage to the stickers and you got this limited edition for probably under $10 postage. Problem was this "reissue" campaign was Maiden's 4th pressing of their albums on CD in the U.S. (original EMI, Castle 2 CD sets from 1995, Raw Power multimedia editions from 1998, and this set) and it was an exact duplicate of the Raw Power issues from 1998, except for the slipcase.
I realize it was a limited edition but I've seen the vinyl, in NM/VG+ condition, go for less.

Gwyneth Paltrow, Neil Patrick Harris, Britney Spears and Ricky Martin — Glee has never had a problem luring A-list talent to the halls of McKinley High for guest-starring roles. And the roles of the glee clubbers' parents have been no exception. In its first three seasons, the Fox musical has nabbed comedy pioneers (Carol Burnett), Broadway vets (Victor Garber, Idina Menzel), sci-fi stars (Jeff Goldblum) and even produced an Emmy nominee (Mike O'Malley). Now that there are a new group of seniors set to rule the school — or at least the choir room — this season on Glee, could meeting Blaine's dad and Artie's mom be far behind? The cast shared their top choices to play their TV parents:
10 Glee spoilers: Goodbye, Rory! Hello, Sue's baby! Can Finchel survive?
Darren Criss, Blaine: "I won't tell you who I want my mom to be because I don't want to jinx it," Criss told reporters at Comic-Con. "I'd love to see Matt Bomer back on the show. He was such a sweetheart." However, he said he would love to meet Blaine's dad. "I've always thought Blaine has daddy issues," Criss said. "I always joke that Peter Gallagher would be amazing because we have the same eyebrows and he's a singer."
Jenna Ushkowitz, Tina: "I want Sandra Oh to play my crazy aunt."
Kevin McHale, Artie: "Katey Sagal wants to play my mom. I'm totally for that. She can sing," McHale said. As for his dad? McHale picked Harry Connick Jr. "Kristin Chenoweth came on [the show] and she's like, 'I'm calling you little Harry Connick.' Everyone always tells me I look like Harry Connick and he can sing."
Glee's new season premieres on Thursday, Sept. 13 at 9/8c on Fox. Which character's parents do you want to see this season?

That could mean Tina. She's a blonde, too. Don't jump to conclusions.
"I wonder if they like blondes in New Zealand?" Although this could be about Tina, I'll bet it's about Marissa & Brooke -- which means they make it to New Zealand at least. So much for my theory that they go out tonight.Belle Book
maybe leg three is a NEL?or a TBC like in TAR9?
I cannot locate the precise post where I went over this, but let me just summarize my hypothesis here. The board for picking numbers already exists from past Amazing Races. It is a simple 3X3. So even if there are less than 9 teams in the competition, there will be nine slots on that board.
Finally some NZ news! And look!QuoteAnd you'll see my dad make an appearance in this season's New Zealand episode, where I was able to help him celebrate his 66th birthday.For reference: Phil's parents John and Beth

One Tree Hill is one of Auckland's most recognisable landmarks and from its summit you get 360-degree views of the city. It was formed up to 30,000 years ago and is one of several inactive volcanos in the Auckland area. The others include Mt Eden, Mt Wellington and Rangitoto Island.Situated within Cornwall Park, One Tree Hill has at its peak a large obelisk that was erected early last century as a tribute to the local Maori population. On its slopes are more than 170 man-made terraces that formed parts of three old Maori forts or pas. These make up what is believed to be the world's biggest pre-historic earth fortifications. One Tree Hill has been public land since the 1840s and until recently was topped with a single pine tree. This was attacked and badly damaged by a political activist and was later cut down.Today One Tree Hill offers Aucklanders and tourists a peaceful place in which to walk, jog, picnic or just sit and relax and enjoy some truly spectacular scenery.
We ended up having the teams search for Maori warriors on an extinct volcano (near Auckland), and it was the most magical morning when they arrived: As the sun was rising, there were these warriors doing the haka (a traditional war dance) with a magnificent rainbow over the top of the hill.

The Gang of Eight's draft bill for immigration reform could be released as early as Thursday, but Senate aides indicate that the process of debating the details in the bill in the committee process will stretch an additional few weeks more than anticipated.
The extra time is designed to assuage the concerns of Gang of Eight member Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, who has called for hearings and a lengthier process of debate on the measure. Rubio's support could help woo wary Republicans who have entreatied Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy not to "ram" the legislation through the panel and onto the Senate floor.
"Chairman Leahy has agreed to hold a hearing as soon as possible after the legislation is introduced, and has promised to have unlimited debate and amendments during the committee mark-up," said a Senate aide. "Assuming Republican members push for as much time as possible, the committee debate will last through the next recess, giving plenty of time for public debate and review."
Congress is back from its next recess during the week of May 6.
The aide said the legislation will be unveiled "soon."

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) Bill O'Brien took his family to Disneyworld on vacation but ended up on a very different kind of roller coaster.
After days of Internet-fueled speculation about whether he would bolt to the NFL, O'Brien stuck right where he started a year ago - Penn State.
O'Brien said Monday his love for coaching the Nittany Lions outweighed a desire to pursue opportunities to move to the pinnacle of his profession despite the promise of a big payday from the NFL. It was the first time he had spoken to reporters en masse since confirming last week he was staying at Penn State.
A year to the day after being first introduced in Happy Valley, O'Brien also asserted several times that he has not asked, nor received a raise, and that no one has approached him about a salary bump, either.
``If it was about money, more than likely I wouldn't be sitting here right now,'' he said. ``It's about making sure that Penn State ... does everything we can do in our power to make sure this place is the best it can be for our student-athletes.''
O'Brien was headed Monday to Nashville to be a keynote speaker at the American Football Coaches Association conference. But first he addressed the media at Beaver Stadium for the first time since the end of an 8-4 season, a smashing success considering the NCAA sanctions against the program for the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal.
He said Monday he had conversations with a few NFL teams who reached out about coaching vacancies last week while he was on vacation, but no job was ever offered.
O'Brien declined to name the interested teams. The Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles were among teams who spoke with him.
The former Patriots offensive coordinator, 43, noted that the NFL was the highest level he could achieve in his profession. The teams contacted him ``out of respect of what we did this year,'' O'Brien said. ``That's as far as it went ... At the end of the day, the most important decision that I made is the decision to be here at Penn State.
``I can't think of a better place to be.''
His agent, Joe Linta, said last week that there would probably be discussions with the school about O'Brien's current contract. The initial five-year deal included a 5 percent raise each year, which would make O'Brien's total compensation this year more than $2.3 million.
Since then, a clause in O'Brien's contract triggered an extension for the length of NCAA sanctions. Penn State is under sanctions for four years, so O'Brien's contract now expires in 2020.
Acting athletic director Dave Joyner declined comment when asked Monday whether the school administration would be open to revisiting O'Brien's deal. ``We're always trying to improve and always trying to make things better,'' Joyner said after the press conference.
With Joyner watching from the back of the stadium media room, O'Brien stressed several times that he has never initiated any talks about a raise at any point in his career, and also said that no one from the university or any donor has spoken to him about a raise.
O'Brien took over two months after predecessor Joe Paterno was fired in the wake of Sandusky's arrest. A retired defensive coordinator, Sandusky is serving a 30 to 60-year prison sentence after being convicted in June of 45 criminal counts of child sexual abuse, including allegations on and off campus.
The NCAA hammered Penn State in July with landmark sanctions including a four-year bowl ban, steep scholarship cuts and a $60 million fine. Players also have until the start of the 2013 preseason in August to transfer to another school without having to sit out a year.
Both Joyner and O'Brien declined comment on Gov. Tom Corbett's federal antitrust lawsuit last week against the NCAA over the sanctions.
With the aid of a strong senior class, O'Brien kept most of the team together. The Nittany Lions rebounded from an 0-2 nonconference start and finished 6-2 in the Big Ten Leaders Division behind undefeated Ohio State. O'Brien ushered in a passing-game renaissance and turned one-time walk-on Matt McGloin into one of the top quarterbacks in the league.
The NFL took notice. Seven teams let coaches go after the end of the regular season, and O'Brien was considered a top potential candidate from the college ranks.
Both O'Brien and Joyner said they were surprised by how NFL rumors snowballed online. But, Joyner said he was confident in O'Brien's commitment.
``It's always a risk with any great coach,'' Joyner said about coaching speculation. ``If people weren't talking about Bill O'Brien, then we made a lousy hire.''
Questions about the future of Penn State's coach are nothing new. In the latter part of his 46-year career, Paterno was constantly dogged by inquiries about retirement. Now, the head Nittany Lion is generating social media buzz over if or when he'll leave for the NFL.
Joyner said he thought his coach would remain at Penn State for a ``long time.'' O'Brien wasn't more specific, but when asked if NFL questions could emerge every year, O'Brien immediately said ``No, I don't think so.''
``I'm a coach and the National Football League is the highest level,'' he said. ``But at the same time, I can't be more clear on this: I love coaching these kids ... I enjoy being here and I plan to be here.''

Welcome to our first-ever Greatest Guitarist poll, where 128 guitarists go head to head, round by round, in a bracketed format, all to crown your choice for the Greatest Guitarist of All Time.
We filled 124 of 128 slots with the names of a host of incredible guitarists (dead and living) — players chosen for their technical ability as well as their importance and creativity, not to mention how influential they've been. We asked you to vote in the final four names, which you did. Now the 128 slots are filled, and we're deep into Round 1.
You might come across one or two interesting style matchups in this poll, which may lead some of you to wonder, "How do you compare a shred guitarist to a blues guitarist?" Aside from how good a player is at his or her given style, here are some things to take into consideration:
• Influence: Who inspired more kids to beg their parents for a guitar for Christmas? Who inspired a wave of copycats?
• Chops/Versatility: Is the guitarist in question a one-trick pony or a master of many styles?
• Body of Work: Who had the more consistent career? Who has played on more classic albums?
• Creativity: Who pioneered new techniques? Who sounds the most radically different from what came before them?
You can check out full results via our regularly updated bracket here.

Czech archaeologists have discovered a 4,500-year-old tomb of a Pharaonic princess named Shert Nebti just south of Cairo. The ancient burial site, which is located at the Abu Sir complex near the famed step pyramid of Saqqara, is surrounded by the tombs of four high officials from the Fifth Dynasty dating to around 2,500 BC. And excitingly, archaeologists now suspect that the area contains other sites just waiting to be unearthed.
Mohammed El-Bialy, who heads the Egyptian and Greco-Roman Antiquities department at the Antiquities Ministry, noted that inscriptions on the four limestone pillars of the Princess' tomb indicate that she is the daughter of King Men Salbo.
The current excavation has also unearthed an antechamber containing the sarcophagi of the four officials and statues of men, women, and a child.

Hangover Helper: The Egg Tart from Free Range in Los Angeles
Just what the doctor ordered.
How can something so good be delivered in a package so small? You may have been thinking this to yourself (and anyone within shouting distance) at the bar last night as you circled your finger in the air for another round of shots, but now that the sun is up you've got a hangover the size of Texas. (Hint: Texas is big. You can't even find small toast in Texas.) So how can the simple, scrubby little $4 egg tart from Free Range be expected to compete against your needs for a Lone Star lobotomy?
Easy: by being perfect. There's no filler here, no extra greens or dainty fruits. The egg tart from Free Range is exactly what you need to cure a hangover: bread and eggs. Or, more succinctly, carbs and gooey proteins. Top to bottom, the egg tart is maybe two inches tall. You'd be juicing the stats if you said this thing was four inches across. Yet, what more do you need, really? Flaky, buttery, perfectly browned pastry dough? It's got that. A soft-fried egg with enough constitution to stand up tall, but tender enough to bite away smooth with a dabble of runny yolk? IT'S GOT THAT TOO. You could make an argument that the few slivers of green onions are just showing off.
So where can you find this mini powerhouse? Free Range certainly doesn't have a storefront, and they're not pimping their wares in some cramped food lot inside an untagged catering truck. Nope, their operation is as small as their egg tarts, offering a grand total of eight hours per week to catch up with them. Thank the patron saint of weekend benders that one of them happens to be on Sundays at the Melrose Place farmers' market. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Free Range stand is open and ready to feed your sloppy face; nothing earlier, nothing later. It's really the perfect Sunday hangover window. No one with a hangover thinks that 9am is a real time, and if you're not up by 2 p.m. someone should call the paramedics.
Once you're there, you might even consider snatching up a few of the egg tarts, which is a smart enough idea given their size. Then again, Free Range offers a few different fried chicken sandwiches and a small assortment of other goodies, so don't be surprised if you find yourself tempted by other delights once you've outmaneuvered the Bulgari purse crowd at the Melrose Place farmers' market. But believe me when I tell you, the Free Range egg tart is a surefire way to kick your hangover from here to Texas. And there's nothing small about that.
Free Range
Sundays at the Melrose Place Farmers' Market, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. 8400 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90069 (map)

Because Of Their History & Contemporary Behavior Against Black Citizens, We Must Perceive All Whites With Badges & Guns As State Commissioned Racial Terrorists Who Threaten Our Lives. Likewise, We Must Perceive All Whites Who Own Guns As Racial Terrorists. We Have Right To Defend & Protect Ourselves & Families Against White Police Terror & Ongoing Campaign Of White Terrorism.
NBFSN "Do we want preemptive strikes against white police terrorists?" Los Angeles Black Foot Soldier Augusta Dubois waged in an emergency meeting called to address the racist San Francisco Police Regime's murder of nineteen year old soldier Kenneth Harding. "For our protection, should these so called white police be called out on fake 911 call and then preached to while they're backs are turned?," he asked.
This Year: When Preaching Against White Police Terror-ism To So Called White Police, What If GOD TURNS YOUR BIBLE INTO A GUN & Endows You With The Holy Ghost, Too? Penitentiary Islam Cautions Street Preachers Who Are Threaten-ed By Psychotic White State Sponsored Racial Terrorists of God's new Miracle
Dubois spoke before San Francisco Black Foot Soldiers and to other concerned black citizens near the home of Harding in efforts to teach unaware blacks that they must see white police as racial terrorists and feel as though their lives are being terroristically threatened in order be protected by terrorism laws in defence of white police terror.
"Do we want brothers brave enough to know that they are greater in death than in life if they are slain standing up for righteousness against white police terrorism and when they claim the white man's so called possessions in BOW Reparations Protests?
"For while we know that 72 virgins await us if we are slain standing up for righteousness. We also know that if we are endowed with that warrior spirit, we may reject our appointed virgins and return here to fight against this devil until he is removed from his seat of power and our people are economically, psychologically and physically free.
According to sources, over 250 San Francisco Black Foot Soldiers attended the meeting. Many of whom, reportedly, were calling for the spirit of Seattle Black Foot Soldier Maurice Clemmons to descend upon them.
(BREAKING) "It's War. Protect Yourself Against White Police Terror By Any Means Necessary & All Cops Are White. Anytime You Are Approached By A So Called Police Officer Know They Are State Commissioned Racial Terrorists, That Your Life Is In Danger & That You Have The Right To Protect Yourself Against White Police Terror." San Francisco Black Foot Soldiers Issue Statement To All People Of Color In Wake Of Kenneth Harding Murder
"Although it is the only way we know we can only have peace from white police terror, we don't want preemptive strikes enacted against these white devils who dress themselves in blue uniforms and call themselves representives of justice – when they are not.
"What we do want is an end to the constant terroristic harassment of our citizens."
"When you reach that conclusion you understand that those who voted to put them in positions of power are terrorists.
"When you reach that conclusion, you must face the reality that all white people are terrorists and, ultimately, have one agenda: to continue to dominate and rule the world by oppression."

But then came Sunday night and the Texas Rangers and their heavy machinery.

U.S. veterans suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have a new battle waiting for them when they return home, but family physicians are well-positioned to aid them in the fight.
A recent study(jama.ama-assn.org) in JAMA: the Journal of the American Medical Association, investigated the effect of mental health disorders, such as PTSD, on the risks and adverse clinical outcomes associated with prescription opioid use. The study concluded that soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who have such mental health diagnoses, particularly PTSD, are at an "increased risk of receiving opioids for pain, high-risk opioid use and adverse clinical outcomes."
According to the study authors, returning combat veterans likely will be visiting primary care physicians in large numbers, and extra care should be taken when prescribing opioids to relieve physical symptoms.
"These patients may benefit from biopsychosocial models of pain care, including evidence-based nonpharmacologic therapies and nonopioid analgesics," the authors wrote. "Integrated treatments that target both mental health disorders and pain simultaneously are effective for both problems and may decrease harms resulting from opioid therapy."
The study also noted that the association between PTSD and opioid prescription -- which it found to be especially robust -- proved to be significant for all subgroups of veterans with PTSD.
- A study in JAMA: the Journal of the American Medical Association, indicates soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who have mental health diagnoses, especially those with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), are at an "increased risk of receiving opioids for pain, high-risk opioid use and adverse clinical outcomes."
- With returning combat veterans presenting to primary care physicians in large numbers, extra care should be taken when prescribing opioids to relieve physical symptoms.
- According to one FP expert, however, when opioid therapy is administered to service members shortly after acute injury during combat, it can actually reduce their risk of developing PTSD.
"Veterans with mental health diagnoses (who were) prescribed opioids, especially those with PTSD, were more likely to have comorbid drug and alcohol use disorders; receive higher-dose opioid regimens; continue taking opioids longer; receive concurrent prescriptions for opioids, sedative hypnotics, or both; and obtain early opioid refills," the authors wrote. "Finally, receiving prescription opioids was associated with increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes for all veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, especially for veterans with PTSD, who were at highest risk of alcohol-, drug-, and opioid-related accidents and overdose, as well as self-inflicted injuries."
According to FP Jeffrey Sonis, M.D., M.P.H., of Chapel Hill, N.C., family physicians are in a unique position to help these veterans.
"From the article, I think it is reasonable to draw the conclusion that primary care docs should be careful about prescribing opiates to returning service members with PTSD, since they are more likely to demonstrate high-risk use of opiates -- such as using higher doses, obtaining early refills and receiving concurrent sleeping medications -- and more likely to have adverse outcomes, such as opioid-related injuries and alcohol and drug overdoses," said Sonis.
The study authors said their findings support improving care of patients with comorbid pain and PTSD because of the heightened risk of self-medication with opioids and substance abuse in veterans with PTSD, which may result in further declines in interpersonal and occupational functioning.
"Trials assessing the efficacy of opioids in treating chronic noncancer pain have shown only modest or equivocal benefit," the authors wrote. "In contrast, multiple studies have described numerous harms, including overdose death, from the upsurge of opioid prescribing in recent years."
Still, said Sonis, who designed a free, AAFP-approved online CME course(www.aheconnect.com) for FPs on treating PTSD, opioids do have a place in treating some of these patients.
"Indeed, there is evidence from other studies that opiates, given shortly after acute injury, reduce the risk of PTSD among service members injured during combat," he told AAFP News Now.

MANILA (Reuters) - Reforms pushed through by President Benigno Aquino have put the Philippines back on the map for international investors but authorities are struggling to control an inflow of capital that has pushed up the currency and threatens asset price bubbles.
The central bank cut interest rates last week to deter hot money but economists say inflows will remain a problem, especially with the U.S. Federal Reserve pumping money into its struggling economy, some of which will spill into attractive emerging markets.
Other Asian countries are trying to control capital inflows too as they provide an oasis of resilience at a time when the European debt crisis is dragging heavily on the global economy.
Singapore and Hong Kong, major destinations for foreign investors, have introduced property curbs to prevent their real estate sectors from overheating. By some measures, the Philippines has more reason to be worried though, as investors show an enthusiastic response to the president's attempts to turn around an economy long considered the "sick man" of Asia.
The peso is the strongest emerging market currency in Asia this year as foreign direct investment has more than doubled. The country's main stock index is up nearly 25 percent this year, a standout performance against other emerging markets, and in dollar terms it is the strongest in Asia.
On Tuesday, Amando Tetangco, the governor of the central bank, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), said the monetary authorities needed to be more "creative" in managing inflows of capital and could not rely on interest rate differentials alone.
Few expect that to mean any move towards capital controls, especially when the Philippines is an active issuer of sovereign debt in global markets.
Instead, the central bank could simply be signaling a pause in monetary loosening after cuts totaling 1 percentage point brought the policy rate to a record low of 3.5 percent this year.
"The BSP will be looking at using a suite of tools in combination rather than one tool, given the multitude of risks and the complexity of managing it," said Vishnu Varathan, an economist at Mizuho Corporate Bank in Singapore.
He said the central bank could impose different reserve requirements for assets in foreign and local currencies, for example, and it might allow the peso to appreciate further to dampen the value of Philippine assets in dollar terms.
However, it will have to tread carefully: a rise in the currency makes Philippine exports expensive and reduces the local value of the remittances from overseas Filipinos — a tenth of the population — that millions of people rely on back home and which underpin domestic consumption.
Jose Mario Cuyegkeng, an economist at ING Bank in Manila, said the BSP might want tighter limits on banks' real estate loans or higher capital adequacy ratios to reduce speculative activity, but he did not rule out further interest rate cuts.
With inflation expected to remain on target through 2014, the central bank can be flexible with monetary policy, analysts said.
In August, the central bank said it would tighten rules on banks' real estate exposure to address the financial system's vulnerability to asset bubbles. Housing loans surged to their highest in four years at the end of June.
The central bank has said it was considering new liquidity ratio requirements for banks under international Basel III rules. It has already set a capital adequacy ratio for banks at 10 percent, above a requirement of 8 percent under Basel II.
Radhika Rao, an economist at Forecast PTE, said the BSP may further ease rates on its short-term special deposit account (SDA) window that had attracted record inflows of nearly 2 trillion pesos ($48 billion) as of October.
The facility offers rates higher than short-term Treasury bills, with the seven-day term paying 3.53125 percent against just 0.3 percent for the 91-day bill in the secondary market.
In July, the BSP started lowering rates on SDAs after tightening access to the facility to ensure it remained closed to foreign investors.
Analysts generally rule out capital controls because such drastic measures could push investors elsewhere.
"It will dampen the interest of investors coming in and it will also cut capital inflows, especially for much-needed projects that the government has for infrastructure," Roland Avante, head of the Philippine Business Bank, told local TV.
The economy's improvement has also been recognized by ratings agencies. On Monday, Moody's Investors Service raised its credit rating for the Philippines to match that of rivals Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings.
They all now rate the country just one notch below investment grade, a level that would attract further inflows from funds mandated to invest in top-rated assets only.
The Philippines was one of the wealthiest nations in Asia in the 1950s before it lost its way to become heavily reliant in recent years on debt as other economies in Asia jumped ahead.
The ratings moves are an endorsement of Aquino's efforts to narrow the budget deficit and deal with other perennial problems; corruption and tax dodging, weak infrastructure and a lack of investment in social services in a country where a third of the population live below the poverty line.
His reforms have underpinned a rise of 6 percent in the peso this year. The stock market .PSI has risen by nearly a quarter, a big gain compared with a 9 percent increase in the MSCI emerging markets index .MSCIEF.
Foreign direct investment nearly doubled in the first seven months of the year to $1.03 billion, well on track to eclipse the 2011 total of $1.3 billion. Much of the success has come from business process outsourcing firms attracted by low costs.
When Aquino assumed power in 2010, net portfolio inflows into the Philippines surged more than three times and were the highest in Southeast Asia after Thailand. The flow slowed in 2011 because of global uncertainties but have shown signs of recovery in the third quarter of this year.

Cover for POÄNG Armchair
Gaja Blue Wool designed by Gabriel A/S
About the product
Cover for IKEA POÄNG armchair - Gaja Blue. Blue is said to bring down blood pressure and slow respiration and heart rate. That is why it is considered calming, relaxing and serene, and it is often recommended for bedrooms and bathrooms. Be careful, however: a pastel blue that looks pretty on the paint chip can come across as unpleasantly chilly when it is on the walls and furnishings, especially in a room that receives little natural light. If you opt for a light blue as the primary color in a room, balance it with warm hues for the furnishings and fabrics. To encourage relaxation in the social areas ( family rooms, living rooms, large kitchens) consider warmer blues, such as periwinkle, or bright blues, such as cerulean or turquoise. It is often used to make smaller rooms look more airy and larger. Blue is the color of Peace in Feng Shui. The fifth state is blue.
Please note this custom cover is tailored by CoverCouch to fit the IKEA POÄNG armchair model. Armchair is not included and is available at IKEA.

Miss Piggy
My weight was exactly where I wanted it to be last week, 6/16-6/23. I had a mild high calorie day on Sat. (6/16), which was good for my head, and then ate well and enough to level out my weight over the week, and my BF averaged between 17-19%;
128.6 (Sat., high calorie day 2800?)
129.4 (Sun., 1580 cal.)
131.6 (Monday, 1420 cal.)
128.4 (Tues., 2450 cal.)
128.4 (Wed., 1750 cal.)
128.6 (Thurs., 1530 cal.
128.6 (Fri., 1620 cal.)
128.6 (Sat. 3500-4000 cal., high calorie day)
And then;
129.4 (Sun. 3500 cal. not supposed to be a high cal day!)
132.0 (Mon. 1700 cal.)
133.0 (Tues., 1570 cal., 19% BF)
133.0???? I think I've been scared straight! Oh, I can rationalize and make excuses for it...I've been lifting more...my body needs more calories...the carbs are holding water....I'm constipated...etc. But the bottom line is I've been eating too much food! Food that my body doesn't need. I've been Little Miss Piggy lately, and I know it. And although my food is good quality nutritious food, my serving sizes have been too large. It's been time to redefine "Tracy size serving"!
It's time to "get my science on" and face reality. Eat less. It's not going to kill me to feel a little hungry. Feeling hungry and being hungry can be 2 different things. If I'm gaining weight, I'm eating calories that my body doesn't need!
So in relation to food, when I think about the word pig/piggy, my definition is one of hoarding...wanting it all....taking more than I need.....holding on. Could this be a metaphor for my life? Maybe. It's something to think about, something to reflect on. I know I need to emotionally "let go", in fact I wrote a post about that not too long ago, "letting go".
But for now, I'm in charge of changing things, it's my responsibility to do the right thing no matter what I feel. This is when my strength of willpower and discipline kick back in. Man, swinging kettlebells for 1 hour is way easier than having to deal with food/emotions for 24!
Life is good and I'm back on track.

Great post. Maybe having your youngest graduate has raised new 'concerns' for you with "holding on".
I'm across the Dumbarton Bridge cheering you on.

Miss Piggy? You're not dating Kermit the Frog are you?
Just kidding!
This whole training and diet stuff never is a linear thing, is it? Full up ups and downs and changes. But as long as you have some sort of self correcting guidance system to get you back on track, you'll be okay. And of course you system happens to be very functional and in good standing.

A couple of client lunches and a blatant disregard for what is good for me has started me on the road to being the Great White Whale again. Nothing that a few lower calorie days won't fix. Nothing like a blip upwards to remind us what not to do, right?

Franz, The Kermit thing was funny, lol!
I never take for granted my success. Food can be a powerful drug, emotionally. Thanks goodness I like the challenge of manipulating my weight, it's....fun. ( oh no there's that word again!)

Charley, Two days of lower calories and I'm back feeling skinny again! It's amazing what eating less can do!
The Great White Whale and Miss Piggy, now there's a picture, lol.

Two years ago, Barack Obama signed into law the most comprehensive reform of American health care since Medicare. Most of its provisions haven't been implemented yet. But the debate about it rages on at every level. Twenty-six states have filed legal challenges to it. And this month the Supreme Court will hear arguments about its constitutionality.
The centerpiece of the case against Obamacare is the requirement that everyone buy some kind of health insurance or face stiff penalties--the so-called individual mandate. It is a way of moving toward universal coverage without a government-run or single-payer system. It might surprise Americans to learn that another advanced industrial country, one with a totally private health care system, made precisely the same choice nearly 20 years ago: Switzerland. The lessons from Switzerland and other countries can't resolve the constitutional issues, but they suggest the inevitability of some version of Obamacare.
Switzerland is not your typical European welfare-state society. It is extremely business-friendly and has always gone its own way, shunning the euro and charting its own course on health care. The country ranks higher than the U.S. on the Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom.
Twenty years ago, Switzerland had a system very similar to America's--private insurers, private providers--with very similar problems. People didn't buy insurance but ended up in emergency rooms, insurers screened out people with pre-existing conditions, and costs were rising fast. The country came to the conclusion that to make health care work, everyone had to buy insurance. So the Swiss passed an individual mandate and reformed their system along lines very similar to Obamacare. The reform law passed by referendum, narrowly. The result two decades later: quality of care remains very high, everyone has access, and costs have moderated. Switzerland spends 11% of its GDP on health care, compared with 17% in the U.S. Its 8 million people have health care that is not tied to their employers, they can choose among many plans, and they can switch plans every year. Overall satisfaction with the system is high.
When Taiwan--another country with a strong free-market economy--decided to create a new health care system in the mid-1990s, it studied every existing model. It too chose a model of universal access and universal insurance but decided against having several private insurers, as Switzerland and the U.S. do. Instead it created a single insurer, basically a version of Medicare. The result: universal access and high-quality care at stunningly low costs. Taiwan spends only 7% of its GDP on health care.
