"As we are entering the Age of Aquarius, we have to know what life is all about, and we have to become responsible, outspoken, leading teachers of this Age. That's what we have trained for and that's what we have grown into. You cannot live under a camouflage. You have to live openly, honestly, brightly, and forthrightly. Your words should be so strong that they affect every heart; your truth should be so pure that it lifts a person's soul to the heights."
- Yogi Bhajan
Open yourself up for a more elevated, more empowered and much deeper level of living in your true essence both inside and out. These are just some of the effects of the teacher training.

why residential retreats
Practicing yoga in a natural environment, disconnected from your routine, is an opportunity to feel a deeper connection with yourself, the earth, the surroundings, and the universe. The practice of Kundalini Yoga helps us to recognise and to embrace the patterns, rhythms and cycles of nature. It gives you the possibility to better align your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels and experience a deeper sense of unity.
Joining the residential training Level 1 is a gift that you offer to yourself. It is an opportunity to create space for you to be, and not do. Away from your daily responsibilities, you increase your chance to encounter your deeper self. It is a time to observe, transform and integrate. Your own growth will be supported by a collective living space, with the possibility to serve each other and reconnect to our original nature, to give and to receive.
Being together in nature during the Level 1 Kundalini Yoga Teacher Training and sharing a collective yogic lifestyle for 22 days is very impactful. It is a source of inspiration and growth. These three residential modules are an immersion in the yogic teachings offering the optimum condition to deepen your practice, embrace positive habits, enter a transformational process and encounter your destiny.

If you ask someone in the UK about their best ski vacation experiences there is a good chance that a catered ski chalet would feature prominently. Over 40% of all ski trips are in catered chalets. Ask a US skier and it is unlikely that they would have ever heard of a catered ski chalet. Americans have gotten used to the standard lodging choices of condos and hotels but ski chalets, let alone catered ski chalets, are not even on the radar!
So what's it all about? Well, ski vacations are healthy, outdoor, fun, active and frequently exhausting holidays. Transplant yourself from the office to the Rocky Mountains and spend your day exercising at altitude and by the time the day is done you don't have the energy left to do anything. Tramping back to your condo, with kids in tow with a decision of making dinner for the family or heading out for dinner where the kids will most likely fall asleep at the table is daunting.
Imagine the option to return to your chalet with an eager friendly staff preparing dinner for your family group, with a kids menu for young ones and a relaxing 3-course dinner party for your adult family and friends. You don't have to dress up, you can even come to the dinner table in your robe if you like. The menus are healthy and occasionally indulgent, but best of all you don't have to shop, cook and clean up. You are 100% on vacation!
The same can be said for the full-breakfast laid out in the morning. While you are searching for your child's missing ski glove or boots your group is enjoying a home-cooked breakfast and getting the low-down on where to ski from the knowledgeable chalet staff.
With over 20 luxury homes to choose from Moving Mountains in Steamboat Springs, CO has nailed the concept down.
You can chose from full-service or economy catered options for your lodging property. It's great value either way. Vacation home rentals are the fastest growing lodging option out there. With privacy, five star amenities and more square footage for your dollar it's not hard to see why families finish their vacation vowing that there is no other way to do a ski trip. With a catered package on top you can have your cake and eat it!

New Zealanders hit by global bomb threat scam

The people behind emailed bomb threats are being labelled opportunistic scammers.
Cyber security agency Cert NZ is dealing with a series of bomb threat emails being sent to recipients in New Zealand and overseas.
The Government agency says the emails claim an explosive device is hidden in the recipient's office, and will be detonated unless a bitcoin ransom is paid.
Police have received three reports of cases where people are told planted explosives will go off if a bitcoin payment's not made.
While it is likely a scam, Andrew Cushen from Internet New Zealand told Larry Williams people still need to take threats seriously.
"Anyone who gets this sort of email, that's hearing a bomb threat, give the New Zealand Police a call so they can work that out."
In the US, similar bomb threats have been sent to dozens of schools, government buildings and other locations.
CNN's Polo Sandoval says authorities say none of the threats are credible.
"However,it certainly has led to some tense moment sin some of these facilities as it's forced authorities to sweep buildings, evacuate buildings."
Anyone who receives the threat should contact 111 immediately.

SPEAKEASY SALON: Did Instagram Kill the Television Star? (Max: 40 ppl)
Hosted by Crowdtap
Venue SIX10: 10th Floor 610 S Michigan Ave Chicago NY 60605
Speakeasy salons will not be video captured or live streamed. These salons are meant to be intimate, facilitated discussions and are limited to 40 people. Seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Television as we know it will soon be no longer. The notion of tuning in to a TV network will be a distant memory and the proverbial cord will someday be forever cut. These changes will disrupt the marketing industry in ways that the onset of the Internet itself didn't achieve. We live in exciting times.
Questions that will be addressed during the session:
- What was the last TV commercial that you remember?
- What do you think the future of TV looks like?
- How has the notion of celebrity changed over the last 5 years?

Freedom of Expression: Introduction
naming his book Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair
and Balanced Look at the Right. The veteran satirist, who had publicly
quarreled with Fox News host Bill O'Reilly in the months leading
up to the book's release, used the news channel's slogan "Fair
and Balanced" in the title. The company claimed this use trespassed
on its intellectual property. By associating Al Franken's name with
Fair and Balanced®, the Fox lawyers argued, it would "blur and tarnish"
the good reputation of the trademark. The suit went on to
state that Franken "appears to be shrill and unstable." He was also
described in the lawsuit as "increasingly unfunny," a charge Franken
responded to by saying that he had trademarked "funny" and was
considering a countersuit.
Later that week on his daily radio talk show,O'Reilly grew testier,
lashing out at Franken and his alleged theft. Despite O'Reilly's bluster
and the earnest legal arguments of Fox's lawyers—who drew
laughter from the courtroom when they advocated their indefensible position—U.S. District Judge Denny Chin dismissed the injunction
against the book. "There are hard cases and there are easy
cases," Chin stated. "This is an easy case in my view and wholly
without merit, both factually and legally." The O'Reilly-Franken
dustup was the prelude to an increasingly aggressive trademark
rampage. That year, the news channel threatened to sue a Web-site
outfit that was selling a satirical T-shirt that mimicked its logo with
the words "Faux News" and tweaked its motto: "We distort, you
comply." It also targeted The Simpsons (which airs on its sister network)
for parodying the news channel's right-wing slant. During
one episode, the cartoon imitated the Fox News ticker, running
crawling headlines such as "Oil slicks found to keep seals young,
supple" and "Study: 92 percent of Democrats are gay."
Fox News eventually backed down, opting not to file a lawsuit
against the show. "We called their bluff," said Matt Groening, The
Simpsons' creator, "because we didn't think Rupert Murdoch would
pay for Fox to sue itself. So we got away with it." It's probably the
first time that media consolidation has actually enabled freedom of
expression®. Still, The Simpsons writers got a slap on the wrist by
the parent company when it imposed a rule that the cartoon could
no longer imitate news crawls. "It might confuse the viewers into
thinking it's real news," Groening drily noted. As for the Web site
that sold the "Faux News" T-shirt, Fox News dropped its threat after
the American Civil Liberties Union intervened on its behalf. The
ACLU sent Fox a " 'get stuffed' letter," as the site's operator Richard
Luckett put it.1
"Blur and tarnish," the choice of words used by Fox's lawyers in
the Franken case, might sound absurd to the average person, but it's
the language of trademark law. Unlike copyright law, which protects
creative works such as books and movies, and patent law,
which covers inventions and the like, trademark law is designed to prevent consumer confusion and unfair competition. In other words,
you can't place the Coca-Cola logo on your own newly minted soft
drink or use the company's trademarked advertising slogans to
trick people into buying your product. It also protects companies
from having their trademarks associated with something unsavory,
which is where the blurring and tarnishing comes in. The problem
—at least as far as freedom of expression® is concerned—is
when trademark holders go too far in trying to protect their property.
The Fox News v. Franken case is but one of many examples of
this kind of overkill.
By wielding intellectual-property laws like a weapon, overzealous
owners erode our freedoms in the following ways: (1) we, or
our employers, engage in self-censorship because we think we
might get sued, even if there's no imminent threat; (2) we censor
ourselves after backing down from a lawsuit that is clearly frivolous;
(3) worst of all, our freedoms are curtailed because the law has expanded
to privatize an ever-growing number of things—from human
genes and business methods to scents and gestures. (Donald
Trump not only trademarked "You're Fired," but also his hand gesture
that accompanied the phrase on The Apprentice.)
In the first case, the makers of the anti–Fox News T-shirts didn't
back down and instead brought in the ACLU, which forced Fox
News to call off its attack dogs. Victory for freedom of expression®.
In the second case, Penguin Books fought Fox's lawsuit and easily
won because the law allows us to parody or criticize intellectual
properties. Franken's publisher didn't make him change the title or
cower from what was obviously a lawsuit that was "wholly without
merit." Another victory for freedom of expression®. These two instances
remind us that we can fight back and win, especially because
many recent court decisions have upheld free-speech rights
in the age of intellectual property. The problem is that lots of individuals and companies either don't know this or don't want to take
a risk.
The third case is far more troubling, because in some important
respects the law does curtail our rights. The rise of the Internet has
served as a wonderfully effective boogeyman used by intellectualproperty
owners to legitimate the same one-dimensional arguments
they've been asserting for years. Those claims go something
like this: Anyone who does anything to any of their properties is a
"pirate" (such as VCR owners and music fans who made cassettetape
copies of works in the 1980s). Courts and Congress fortunately
rejected this line of reasoning twenty years ago, giving consumers
far more options—including the option not to be sued. However,
Internet-fueled fears have changed the legal and cultural landscape
in dramatic ways.
In 1998 Congress passed the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
(DMCA) in response to the megabyte-sized specter that haunted
American business interests. Although well-intentioned, the DMCA
is a terrible law. It was written to protect digital property by making
it illegal to bypass "digital locks" such as copy-protection technologies
on CDs or simple passwords on software. It's a bad law because
it has failed to prevent unauthorized duplication of copyrighted
goods—surfed the Internet lately?—and has only succeeded in curtailing
freedoms, criminalizing legitimate research, and arresting
the development of worthwhile software. (Sometimes it has led to
the arrest of software developers themselves.)
One of the DMCA's unintended consequences is that companies
have tried to use it to squash competition on things such as garagedoor
openers and aftermarket ink cartridges. A few years ago,
for instance, Lexmark placed in its printers an "authentication
regime"—a fancy way of referring to a kind of password that lets
the ink cartridge and the printer "talk." Then it invoked the DMCA to eliminate competition from less-expensive aftermarket ink cartridges
that "hacked" the digital lock on Lexmark's printer. It took
many months and many more thousands of dollars to convince
courts that these competing products weren't illicit materials. Only
in America, you might think, but draconian DMCA-like laws are
spreading around the globe like digital wildfire. In 2004 thirtythree-
year-old Isamu Kaneko, an assistant professor at the University
of Tokyo, was arrested because he developed file-sharing
software similar to the popular KaZaA application. The same year,
the Italian parliament passed a law imposing jail time of up to three
years for anyone caught sharing copyrighted material via the Internet.
These sanctions are another unfortunate outcome in the drive
to privatize every imaginable thing in the world, including genetic
material. The peculiar case of John Moore couldn't have happened
without the expansion of patent law in the past quarter century.
When Moore's spleen was removed to treat a rare form of leukemia,
his University of California doctor patented a cell line taken from
his organ, without Moore's knowledge or permission. The longterm
market value of the patent has been estimated at roughly
$3 billion, and Moore's doctor received $3 million in stocks from
Genetics Institute, the firm that marketed and developed a drug
based on the patent.2
When Moore found out about these shenanigans, he sued—and
lost. The California Supreme Court claimed that giving Moore any
rights would lead to the commodification of the human body—
an argument that ruffled the feathers of Judge J. Broussard, who
dissented from the Moore v. Regents of the University of California
decision. "Far from elevating these biological materials above the
marketplace," Broussard wrote, "the majority's holding simply bars
plaintiff, the source of the cells, from obtaining the benefit of the cells' value, but permits the defendants, who allegedly obtained the
cells from plaintiff by improper means, to retain and exploit the full
economic value of their ill-gotten gains."
Patents not only allow companies to have a monopoly control
over human and plant genes, but also business methods, such as
Amazon's "one-click" procedure. U.S. Patent No. 5,960,411 gives
Amazon the right to extract money from any business that wants to
let customers purchase items on the Internet with only one click of
the mouse. The online retailer exercises the monopoly right that
this patent gives it, bullying small and large companies into purchasing
a license for this "technology." For instance, Amazon won a
court order that prevented barnesandnoble.com from using this
feature for two holiday-shopping seasons before the two parties
reached a settlement. Today, every company from Apple's iTunes to
the smallest of businesses that Amazon's lawyers can shake down
are compelled to license the "one-click" feature. Otherwise, they'll
be sued.
Clear Channel Communications, which controls more than one
hundred live venues and over thirteen hundred radio stations in the
United States, bought what is considered in the music industry to
be an important patent. It covers selling recordings of concerts immediately
after a performance, something that has recently become
popular with fans who want to take home live CDs. Other companies
had been providing this service, but Clear Channel intends
to enforce its patent to squeeze licensing fees from other small
businesses and bands and to eliminate competition in this area of
commerce. "It's one more step toward massive control and consolidation
of Clear Channel's corporate agenda," says Mike Luba, the
manager of the jam band String Cheese Incident, which was prevented
by the corporate Goliath from using CD-burning equipment.
Pixies manager Ken Goes grumbled, "I'm not fond of doing
business with my arm twisted behind my back."3
Another terrible law is the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension
Act of 1998, which extended the length of copyright protection
by twenty more years. To put this into perspective, nothing new will
enter the public domain until 2019—that is, until Congress likely
extends copyright protection again for its corporate campaign
donors. Previously, copyright law was written in such a way that,
between 1790 and 1978, the average work passed into the public
domain after thirty-two years. Stanford University law professor
Lawrence Lessig notes that this honored a constitutional mandate
that copyright protections should last for "limited times," something
today's Congress interprets quite liberally. U.S. copyright protection
now stretches ninety-five years for corporate authors, and
for individual authors it lasts their entire lifetime, plus an additional
seventy years.
Copyright protectionists argue that extending a work's copyright
ensures that there will be an owner to take care of it. But the opposite
is often true. "Long copyright terms actually work to prevent
a lot of stuff from being preserved," argues film archivist Rick
Prelinger. "There's a lot of material that's orphaned," he tells me.
"It's still under copyright, but the copyright holders are gone, or we
don't know who they are. The copyright could be obscure." Many
archives won't preserve a film if they don't know who the owner is,
which means there are thousands of films, records, and other fragile
works that aren't being protected because nobody knows their status.
"The interesting thing about film, what's actually scary about
film," Prelinger tells me, "is that the term of copyright is now longer
than the average lifespan of film as a medium. So you've got this
film in a cage and you can't get to it until the copyright expires, and
the cage melts down. But in the meantime the film may disintegrate.
That's a real issue."
John Sorensen, a high school friend and an independent documentary
producer who has worked for A&E and PBS, shares Prelinger's concerns. "From the perspective of a historian," he says,
"after spending a lot of time looking at film and photo collections
from the early part of the century, one realizes that the things that
still exist, the images that are chosen to be preserved, are those images
that are perceived by corporate or government bodies to have
potential value. So the visual record that is kept is totally subject to
the laws of the marketplace." Of the works produced between 1923
and 1942—which were affected by the Bono Act—only 2 percent
have any commercial value. This means we are allowing much of
our cultural history to be locked up and decay only to benefit the
very few, which is why some have sarcastically referred to this law as
the Mickey Mouse Protection Act. If not for the Bono Act, Steamboat
Willie, the first appearance of the rodent, would be in the public
When companies try to use intellectual-property laws to censor
speech they don't like, they are abusing the reason why these laws
exist in the first place. Copyright was designed to, as the U.S. Constitution
puts it, "promote the progress of science and useful arts,
by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive
right to their respective writings and discoveries." Copyright exists
—and the U.S. Supreme Court has consistently repeated this—
as a means to promote the dissemination of creative expression, not
suppress it. The overzealous copyright bozos who try to use the law
as a censorious weapon mock the idea of democracy, and they step
on creativity. As culture increasingly becomes fenced off and privatized,
it becomes all the more important for us to be able to comment
on the images, ideas, and words that saturate us on a daily
basis—without worrying about an expensive, though meritless,lawsuit. The right to express one's views is what makes these "copy
fights" first and foremost a free-speech issue. Unfortunately, many
intellectual-property owners and lawyers see copyright only as an
economic issue.
By using intellectual-property law as a thread that ties everything
together, I gather what may seem to be a wild array of subjects: hiphop
music and digital sampling; the patenting of seeds and human
genes; folk and blues music; education and book publishing; the
collage art of Rauschenberg and Warhol; filmmaking, electronic
voting, and the Internet. However, all of these topics are connected
to the larger trend of privatization—something that pits economic
values against the values of free speech, creativity, and shared resources.
The latter aren't airy dreams. They're the very reasons why
the framers of the Constitution established copyright and patent
law: so that society would benefit from a rich culture accessible
to all. Thomas Jefferson and the other Founding Fathers were
thoughtful, and got it right.
They articulated a theory of intellectual-property law that rewarded
authors and inventors for their creativity, but they did not
intend the law to be so rigid that it would give creators (and their
heirs) complete control over their work. In the influential 1984 Betamax
case that legalized the VCR, Supreme Court Justice John Paul
Stevens reminded us of copyright's Constitutional mandate. He
made clear that the monopoly power of copyright was designed
first and foremost to benefit society by stimulating new creative
works. Copyright's purpose, he argued in the majority opinion, is
not to provide a special private benefit to an individual or corporation.
"Rather, the limited grant is a means by which an important
public purpose may be achieved," wrote Stevens. "It is intended to
motivate the creative activity of authors and inventors by the provision of a special reward, and to allow the public access to the products
of their genius after the limited period of exclusive control has
expired. The copyright law, like the patent statutes, makes reward to
the owner a secondary consideration."5 Despite Hollywood's fears,
it turned out that the VCR generated more money for movie studios.
Box-office revenues have continued to rise since the 1980s—
even in the age of digital downloading—and video rentals and sales
now generate twice as much money as box-office receipts.
Since this 1984 decision, the hypnotic drumming of privatization
has grown louder and more persuasive. Some pundits believe it
makes sense to place as many things as possible under the control
of property owners, because it would be best for business. This is a
false assumption, and it is filled with many dangerous trapdoors.
The risk we face today is that the free exchange of ideas could be
halted by recent trends in intellectual property—with dire consequences
for creativity and the human spirit. This book documents a
Lord of the Rings–size battle between a more than two-hundredyear-
old tradition that encourages openness and the total monopoly
control that many copyright protectionists advocate. It's also a
story about how activists aren't letting the erosion of our freedoms
happen without one smackdown of a fight. The situation isn't
hopeless, though there are plenty of areas where the conflict is getting
worse for freedom of expression®.We still have a way to go.
To address an issue I'm sure will be raised: No, I wouldn't mind
earning some extra income from this book's sales, as I've accrued
massive student-loan debt over my decade of higher education.
However, I thoroughly approve if you copy this book for noncommercial
uses. The point of copyright law is to provide limited incentives to promote creativity and the spread of knowledge, not total
control in perpetuity. My copyright comrade at NYU, Siva Vaidhyanathan,
told me that some professors in India have photocopied
his book Copyrights and Copywrongs in its entirety. The cost of a
book is almost an entire month's salary for some university workers
in that country, so Siva's feathers aren't ruffled over this kind of
"piracy"—though it makes him sad that in the era of globalization
such things as books aren't affordable for certain people.
In this book, I don't argue for the abolition of intellectualproperty
laws. Nor do I believe that those who think their intellectual
property is worth protecting are automatically "overzealous
copyright bozos." But I do contend that we need to roll back the recent
restrictions that have been imposed on us in the digital age.
Today, copyright and trademark owners repeatedly invoke the Internet
as something that will surely devastate them. Jack Valenti, the
recently retired Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA)
CEO, has claimed that Hollywood would be brought to its knees by
the digital anarchy perpetrated by "twelve-year-olds." Valenti has
argued, "If the value of what [movie studios] labored over and
brought forth to entertain the American public cannot be protected
by copyright, then the victim is going to be the American public."
He went on to assert that if people were able to freely copy and
watch movies whenever they wanted, this would lead to a "lessened
supply of high quality, expensive high budget material where its investment
recoupment is now in serious doubt."6
VALENTI SAID THIS over twenty years ago, and he was talking about
the VCR.

SEPTEMBER is filled with the plaintive melodies of Jews asking God to forgive their sins and enter them in the Book of Life. October is spent preparing 50 voices to blend in the musical drama of Mozart's Requiem on All Saints Day.
Such is fall in the life of David Messineo, 38, the minister of music at the Glen Ridge Congregational Church and the organaccompanist at Temple Ner Tamid, a Reform synagogue in Bloomfield.
And then there is Halloween night, when Dr. Messineo takes a break from the sacred and engages in some high melodrama instead, accompanying the silent film, ''The Phantom of the Opera'' on organ.
As the movie opens, Dr. Messineo thunders out the chilling chords of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, a passage that instantly invokes dread and is all at once familiar, even to those who know nothing about classical music.
Demonstrating it to a visitor to his church on a recent morning, Dr. Messineo, a trim 5-foot-8-inches, looks like a mischievous choir boy. ''I've turned into the horror movie accompanist,'' he says.Continue reading the main story
When Dr. Messineo performed ''Phantom'' at the University Chapel in Princeton last October, he drew a standing-room-only crowd of more than 2,000.
''That's a great organ, and it's a dark, cavernous place,'' Dr. Messineo says. He also acknowledges that the organ-enhanced Phantom is rather campy -- just the thing to reel college students in.
It is not unusual for church organists to play at synagogues, but there are few who then accompany horror movies. Fewer still who do all that and annually pull off a musical event as ambitious as a Requiem, a dauntingly complex musical form historically played in early November, which commemorates the dead and which is more often performed in major Cathedrals.
But Dr. Messineo loves to play the organ. He has since he was a child, so much so that the sexton of his church in Rutherford -- tired of unlocking the chapel door -- gave him his own key.
Not surprisingly, Dr. Messineo comes from a family of churchgoers and musicians. He has always liked going to church, but mostly because that's where they keep the organ.
''It's an amazing instrument,'' he says. ''It's like a whole bunch of flutes and clarinets and oboes. It's the closest thing to an orchestra we have. All this under the control of one person.''
The organ at the Glen Ridge Congregational Church, installed in 1914, has 3,904 pipes. The apparatus responsible for the organ's huge sound is hidden in two back rooms and the basement, and is equal in its bulk and complexity to a locomotive or a printing press.
''People don't see this,'' he says. ''Most organists don't know how the organ works.''
But Dr. Messineo, son of an engineer, enjoys tinkering with the organ's intricate machinery almost as much as he likes playing. He and his father rebuilt, rewired and releathered the Glen Ridge organ in 1985, with the help of congregants.
The first organ he rebuilt was at Grace Episcopal in Port Jervis, N.Y. It was there that the young David Messineo took his first job as an organist when he was Port Jervis was close to his parents' weekend place in Pennsylvania. His mother found the advertisement in the classifieds, and David, who had been playing organ for years, won the job easily.
As a high school senior, he became the organist at the Rutherford Congregational Church. It was, he recalls, an ''awkward experience'' because as church organist and choir director he had to supervise people who had known him as a little boy.
From there, Dr. Messineo's resume grows steadily more impressive. In addition to numerous church jobs, he studied music at the Juilliard School, where he earned as doctorate in 1990, and for eight years was the organist at Radio City Music Hall. In 1979, while attending Juilliard and playing Radio City, began training with Lee Erwin, a famous organist from the silent movie era.
In addition to teaching him the art of accompanying silent films (it's improvised, not scored, with musical themes for each character), Mr. Erwin also taught him how to arrange pop music -- ''much to Juilliard's chagrin,'' Dr. Messineo adds.
Although the art of playing to silent movies is almost lost, it was once as common as popcorn. ''Every town had a movie theater, and if they couldn't afford an organ, they had a piano,'' Dr. Messineo says.
While he was studying with Mr. Erwin, playing Radio City, attending Juilliard and playing at a Roman Catholic church in Kearny, Dr. Messineo began his synagogue training at Union Temple in Brooklyn. He began his most recent synagogue job at the temple in Bloomfield, this past summer, after working for five years at Oheb Shalom, a Conservative synagogue in South Orange.
Although he has a national reputation, he still had to audition for the rabbi, the cantor and the committee that was going to hire him. But when he showed up, he was stunned to discover only a piano. The synagogue's organ, in disrepair, was in storage.
''I looked around and said, 'Where is the organ?' '' he recalls. Dr. Messineo quickly excused himself to go home and fetch some piano music.
Dr. Messineo went back prepared to play Bach, but the committee wanted to see how he did with some Jewish music. They handed him a piece that they thought was fairly obscure, just to see how he handle it. He easily passed the test.
''We were just shocked at the depth of understanding that he had,'' Rabbi Steve Kushner says. ''He was playing it by sight, but he made it sound better than we'd ever heard it before.''
Dr. Messineo explained: ''I've been playing synagogues since the early 80's. You kind of learn the shtick after a while.''
He is well aware that the organ's role in synagogue is hotly disputed. It was introduced into Reform synagogues in Germany in the 19th century, but many Jews object to the use of an organ and a choir as too churchlike.
But Dr. Messineo won over even some of these critics at this year's High Holy Day services at Temple Ner Tamid, which is also affiliated with the Conservative movement.
''I had people who hate organ music come up and say, 'It wasn't so bad,' '' says Rabbi Kushner. ''That's a rave review coming from traditional Jews.''
BY going back and forth between the synagogue and the church in neighboring towns, Dr. Messineo often finds himself in the informal role of bridging the two religious communities. He frequently tells the Rev. David Stinson what a common friend, Rabbi Kushner, preached about the previous week.
More than most, Dr. Messineo is able to witness weekly what the two traditions share. ''The Torah is part of our Bible,'' Dr. Messineo says. ''We're all doing the same things. We're just doing it in different ways.''
He also wants people to know that while organs are most often found in churches, there is nothing inherently Christian -- or even sacred -- about them. ''The organ is a musical instrument,'' he says. ''It's like a piano or a harp or a kazoo. An organ is great for filling the space. And it helps the congregation stay on pitch while we're singing.''
David Messineo is to accompany ''The Phantom of the Opera'' at 8 P.M. on Halloween night at the Plymouth Church of the Pilgrims in Brooklyn Heights.Continue reading the main story

Daily Tasks
Some things need to be done every day. Remove and replace the cage liner. (Note: if you line the cage with layered pages of butcher paper or newspaper, you may only have to replace the top one.) Polly's food bowl, water bottle or dish, and birdbath will also need to be washed. Use hot water and soap, and rinse well. Dry your pet's things thoroughly before putting them back in the cage. Consider getting two sets of dishes, so one can be in use while the other gets cleaned. We recommend stainless steel, as it's durable and, if kept clean, won't harbor bacteria.
Polly's perches should be cleaned and disinfected once a week. Use hot, soapy water, and put them in the oven to dry. An hour at about 200 degrees should do it. You can use a pet-safe disinfectant instead of oven drying. Make sure everything is dry before putting it back in the cage. You'll also want to clean your pet's toys and scrub the cage doors, gate, and floor. Last but not least, sweep or vacuum beneath the cage. (Note: if Polly is particularly sloppy, this may need to be done more than once a week.) When you put everything back, change your pet's toys and perches around to keep things fun for her.
Once a month, you'll need to do a deep cleaning, and scrub and disinfect the entire cage. Remove old seeds or droppings, then use sandpaper, an old toothbrush, or a scrub brush to completely scrub, wash, rinse, and disinfect the entire cage. You'll also need to wash the cage apron, as well as the playtop, if you have one.
When you clean Polly's cage, look for signs of illness, such as uneaten food, regurgitated food, and/or changes in the amount, color, or texture of her droppings. You'll also want to check for any sharp edges. Even something as seemingly innocuous as a splinter can cause problems for our feathered pals!
Please contact us, your local Fayetteville, NC pet clinic, anytime. We're here to help!

Print Edition - 2017-02-05 | News
Taskforce to forward suggestions to LLRC
- If restructuring report needs to be revised, commission to do so, not govt
-, Kathmandu
Feb 5, 2017-
A three-member taskforce formed by the government to study the report prepared by the Local Level Restructuring Commission (LLRC) will mainly focus on complaints from Nuwakot, Khotang and Bajhang and try to find a way to address concerns related to the eight districts of Province 2 where the LLRC's technical committees had failed to carry out work, a minister said.
The taskforce, led by Minister for Federal Affairs and Local Development Hitraj Panday, was formed on Thursday in a bid to address the concerns raised by the Madhes-based parties and resolve the problems in Nuwakot, Khotang and Bajhang that have cropped up against the LLRC report.
The Madhes-based parties have rejected the LLRC report, saying it was prepared without consulting them and locals of the eight districts of Province 2. The Madhes-based parties have also taken exception to the entire criteria of the LLRC.
Minister for Supplies Deepak Bohara and Minister for Industry Nabindra Raj Joshi are the members of the Panday-led taskforce. The taskforce has been given 15 days to submit its suggestions.
On how the government taskforce plans to move ahead, Minister Bohara said, "We will study the report and put forward our suggestions to the LLRC so that revision can be made accordingly."
The LLRC has objected to the government bid to revise the report prepared by it, saying that the LLRC is a constitutional body and any move to tweak the report would be unconstitutional.
"The taskforce will study the complaints from different districts that suggestions from local and political parties were ignored and then make recommendations to the LLRC accordingly," said Minister Bohara. "Revisions will be recommended for those places where terms of reference given by the government have not been followed."
However, any changes to be made in the report will be made by the commission itself, according to him. Minister Bohara claimed that the taskforce would submit its report long before its deadline so as to give ample time to
the LLRC to make its final recommendations based on its suggestions.
The LLRC had submitted its report on January 6 recommending 719 village and municipal councils in the federal set-up. The implementation of the restructuring report is a must to hold the local level elections.
Following continued protest from the Madhes-based parties, the government on Thursday decided to form a taskforce to study the complaints and issues related to the LLRC report.
The LLRC report will come into force once the Cabinet approves it and publishes it in the Nepal Gazette.
Once the report is implemented, the existing 217 municipalities and 3,117 village development committees will be replaced by 719 local structures across the country.

Jacobus Houbraken
(Jacob Hildebrand)
Amsterdam 1735
Proof engraving.
290 x 220 mm
A very fine proof of a private plate of Sir Hildebrand Jacob Bard, poet and dramatist, born in 1693, was only son of Colonel Sir John Jacob, third baronet, of Bromley, Kent, by his wife Lady Catherine Barry, daughter of the second Earl of Barrymore. He was named after his mother's brother, Hildebrand Alington, fourth lord Alington (d. 1722). He is usually described as of West Wratting, Cambridgeshire. During 1728 and 1 729 he visited Paris, Vienna, and the chief towns of Italy.

text: Dr. Eamonn Butler May 20, 2010 Politics & Government Emasculating the 1922 Committee Dr. Eamonn Butler May 20, 2010 Politics & Government 5206 emasculating-the-1922-committee I'm no Tory, but many Conservatives I spoke to at a function last night are very alarmed at what's going on with the 1922 Committee. The 1922 is the grouping of backbench Tory MPs, which (since 1923, actually) has always represented the views of the rank and file in Parliament to the leadership. Now there is a plan to allow ministers to attend and speak at the 1922, which would of course completely rob it of its robustness and independence. If backbenchers thought that ministers (and whips) were keeping an eye on them as they discussed Party policy, there would be no free discussion at all. The leadership's argument is that shadow ministers attended the 1922 when the Tories were in Opposition, so what is the problem? But the fact is that when you are in government, things are entirely different. The Prime Minister and the Executive in the UK have huge powers, including powers of patronage. If they were admitted into private backbench discussions, MPs would hardly dare to raise disagreements with the leadership, as they would when in Opposition. Worse, it seems that the new, tenderfoot MPs have been whipped to vote for the leadership's proposal. But frankly, what business is it of the leadership how the 1922 manages its affairs? The whole point is that it is an independent voice of backbenchers. One can argue that a rise in Capital Gains Tax, or a referendum on Alternative Vote, or any of the other dubious policies, are a matter of agreement between coalition partners and so there has to be a bit of give and take. But the 1922 is an entirely Tory affair. It is the leadership that is trying to lay down the rules and emasculate the backbenchers. It is the worst kind of central control. The kind of centralism we were supposed to have put behind us. This is alarming. For more information on this check out Jonathan Isaby's blog here.

Trey Songz Blasted Keke Palmer For Trying To "Defame" Him, Says Issue Is Ongoing
Looks like this feud isn't ending anytime soon...
Trey Songz has come out to defend himself. Earlier this month, Keke Palmer came out swinging when she accused Trey of secretly taping her for his "Pick Up The Phone" music video without her consent. The actress claimed that she attended a party at the singer's home and he taped her without her knowledge.
Songz denied that anything inappropriate happened. "Ain't nobody put her on camera without asking. There's a sign on the door...you step on the premises, you will be recorded. Point blank period. I don't have to say nothing else about nothing," Songz said to The Breakfast Club.
Just as Palmer, Songz reiterated that the two were friends and "there was always love," therefore he was upset that she went out of her way to make him look shady. "She was doing the most to defame me. I thought that was wack."
He blasted Palmer for putting him on her Snapchat without his permission, and yet, he didn't trip-- so shouldn't either.
When asked about a supposed resolution to the beef, the singer defiantly denied it. He said they haven't even spoken. "That's a lie too. I ain't talk to her. I ain't call her. I ain't try to call Keke. None of that."
Not too long ago, Palmer went on The Wendy Williams Show to defend herself from the host's harsh criticism of her following the incident. Palmer later said the two reached an amicable resolution after she threatened to sue. So what is the truth?!
Whatever it is, it looks like this feud won't be ending anytime soon...

- Probability of continuing abroad for the loan tenure

Terms used in Housing Finance
EMI: Equated Monthly Installment till the loan is paid back. It consists of a portion of interest and the principal

Monthly reducing balance: In this system interest reduces monthly with repayment of Principal amount
Annual reducing balance: In this system principal is reduced annually at the end of the year so you end up paying interest even for the portion of principal you have actually paid back
Fixed rate of interest: Rate of interest remains unchanged throughout the period of the loan
Processing charge: This fee payable to the lender on applying for the loan
Prepayment penalties: When loan is paid back before the agreed term of the loan, then banks/ institutions charge penalty for the prepayment
