Four Brothers (ver. 1) Piano Sheet
Four Brothers (ver. 1) by Jimmy Guiffre - Piano Sheets and Free Sheet Music
About the Song
"Four Brothers" (1947) is a jazz standard composed by Jimmy Giuffre and performed by the Woody Herman Orchestra. The song features four saxes (three tenors and one baritone) in an arrangement that gives each "brother" a solo and culminates in a hard-swinging sax section chorus. The song so typifies the sound of Woody Herman's second "Herd" that the band is also known as the Four Brothers Band. The title also refers to the four musicians that played in the original version: Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Al Cohn, and Serge Chaloff. All four played in a light-vibrato style that was originated by Lester Young of the Count Basie Orchestra and popularized by Stan Getz. An a cappella rendition with full lyrics was recorded by Realtime as the title track of a 2004 CD. A vocal version was also released by The Manhattan Transfer on their 1978 album Pastiche. This version was based on the arrangement that.

About the Artist
James Peter Giuffre (April 26, 1921 – April 24, 2008) was an American jazz composer, arranger and saxophone and clarinet player. He is notable for his development of forms of jazz which allowed for free interplay between the musicians, anticipating forms of free improvisation. Born in Dallas, Texas, Giuffre (pronounced "Joo-fray") was a graduate of Dallas Technical High School and North Texas State Teachers College (now the University of North Texas). He first became known as an arranger for Woody Herman's big band, for which he wrote the celebrated "Four Brothers" (1947). He would continue to write creative, unusual arrangements throughout his career. He was a central figure in West coast jazz, cool jazz,[1] and was a member of Shorty Rogers's groups before going solo. Giuffre played clarinet, as well as tenor and baritone saxophones, but eventually focused on clarinet. His first trio consisted of Giuffre, guitarist Jim Hall and double bassist Ralph Pena (later replaced by Jim Atlas). They had a minor hit in 1957 when Giuffre's "The Train and the River" was featured on the television special The Sound of Jazz. This trio explored what Giuffre.

Sheet Music - Purpose and use
Sheet music can be used as a record of, a guide to, or a means to perform, a piece of music. Although it does not take the place of the sound of a performed work, sheet music can be studied to create a performance and to elucidate aspects of the music that may not be obvious from mere listening. Authoritative musical information about a piece can be gained by studying the written sketches and early versions of compositions that the composer might have retained, as well as the final autograph score and personal markings on proofs and printed scores. Comprehending sheet music requires a special form of literacy: the ability to read musical notation. Nevertheless, an ability to read or write music is not a requirement to compose music. Many composers have been capable of producing music in printed form without the capacity themselves to read or write in musical notation—as long as an amanuensis of some sort is available. Examples include the blind 18th-century composer John Stanley and the 20th-century composers and lyricists Lionel Bart, Irving Berlin and Paul McCartney. The skill of sight reading is the ability of a musician to perform an unfamiliar work of music upon viewing the sheet music for the first time. Sight reading ability is expected of professional musicians and serious amateurs who play classical music and related forms. An even more refined skill is the ability to look at a new piece of music and hear most or all of the sounds (melodies, harmonies, timbres, etc.) in one's head without having to play the piece. With the exception of solo performances, where memorization is expected, classical musicians ordinarily have the sheet music at hand when performing. In jazz music, which is mostly improvised, sheet music—called a lead sheet in this context—is used to give basic indications of melodies, chord changes, and arrangements. Handwritten or printed music is less important in other traditions of musical practice, however. Although much popular music is published in notation of some sort, it is quite common for people to learn a piece by ear. This is also the case in most forms of western folk music, where songs and dances are passed down by oral—and aural—tradition. Music of other cultures, both folk and classical, is often transmitted orally, though some non-western cultures developed their own forms of musical notation and sheet music as well. Although sheet music is often thought of as being a platform for new music and an aid to composition (i.e., the composer writes the music down), it can also serve as a visual record of music that already exists. Scholars and others have made transcriptions of western and non-western musics so as to render them in readable form for study, analysis, and re-creative performance. This has been done not only with folk or traditional music (e.g., Bartók's volumes of Magyar and Romanian folk music), but also with sound recordings of improvisations by musicians (e.g., jazz piano) and performances that may only partially be based on notation. An exhaustive example of the latter in recent times is the collection The Beatles: Complete Scores (London: Wise Publications, c1993), which seeks to transcribe into staves and tablature all the songs as recorded by the Beatles in instrumental and vocal detail.

You could use data-sms which supports true 8bit, whereass a normal sms only takes 7bit. This is why you get garbage on the other side without any further encoding efforts.

Are Iranian commandos training new Syrian paramilitary force?
Iran has trained a new pro-regime paramilitary force in Syria to fight what is increasingly becoming a guerilla war, according to an anti-regime watchdog.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the force, called the National Defense Army, has evolved from militias organized to protect pro-regime neighbourhoods from rebels.
According to the report, most of the fighters are loyal to the Ba'ath Party and are not connected to the shabiha militias.
"The Syrian authorities are set to create ... a National Defence Army, parallel to regime forces, so that the (regular) army is freed up for combat," Russia Today reported, citing an unnamed official.
Rami Abdel Rahman, head of the Observatory, told AFP that the popular committees, as they are known, "includes an elite fighting force trained by Iran."
"Iran has provided training to the paramilitary force's commando fighters," he said.

I want to use XHR to log in to a site that uses HTTP basic authentication. The following piece does this.
http = new XMLHttpRequest();
http.open("get", "http://...", false, username, password);
The problem is that this does not work from a domain that is different from the one where the authentication is. The solution is simple enough: set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header to *. So I changed my Apache configuration to this:
<Location />
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
AuthType Basic
AuthName "trac"
AuthUserFile /home/admin/development/pass.htpasswd
Require valid-user
Responses from that page look like:
HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 345
Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Date: Sun, 11 Sep 2011 01:17:55 GMT
Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=100
Vary: Accept-Encoding
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="trac"
The responses do not have the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header. This seems strange.
When I use the same Header directive for the inside pages, the header is set.
Why was the header not set? How do you set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header for the HTTP basic authentication response in Apache?

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyThis anthology of 14 essays, first delivered as lectures at several writers' conferences around the country, contains some wisdom and inspiration but lacks coherence. Jane Smiley reflects thoughtfully on ``the extreme paucity of mothers, and of the tradition of a maternal vision'' in our literary culture, and suggests that a new ``literature of real, live motherhood'' is being forged. Christopher Merrill, reporting on a writers' conference in Slovenia, finds the famous panelists ignoring the nearby Bosnian war and instead haranguing the U.S. government about copyright law. William Kittredge, citing the disenfranchised, suggests, ``We need stories that will encourage us toward acts of the imagination that in turn will drive us to the arts of empathy.'' Agha Shahid Ali criticizes American ethnocentrism for ignoring Faiz Ahmed Faiz, a great Pakistani poet who wrote from Beirut and whose death was front-page news in the Middle East and elsewhere. Several lectures, however, are slight, and despite the book's title, few pieces address the craft of writing. Brown, former director of the Aspen Writers' Conference, is co-founder of Writers' Conferences and Festivals. (June)
True Subject: Writers on Life and Craftby Kurt Brown, Jane Smiley
Editorial Reviews
Library JournalEdited by the president of Writers' Conferences and Festivals, this anthology of 14 lectures delivered by writers to various writers' conferences begins with Jane Smiley's thoughts on the difficulty of truly writing from a mother's point of view (men just can't do it). Christopher Merrill contributes a standout piece from the fringe of the Balkan civil war. In the title piece, Agha Shalid Ali analyzes the work of Faed Ahmed Faiz, arguing that the politics of exclusion keep Faiz little known in the United States. A few pieces stray as they analyze particular works, but most of these writers are discussing writing itself, not another writer; this is the book's strength. Writing instructors will find good material in this collection to spark discussion. Writers will find some inspiration, insight, and laughs. Recommended for academic and public libraries.-- Robert Moore, DuPont Merck Pharmaceutical Co. Information Svcs., N. Billerica, Mass.
Alice JoyceIt's somewhat surprising that an anthology of this sort (the first volume in a planned series of such anthologies) is only now becoming a reality. These 14 essays, on such diverse topics as the environment and the state of the publishing world today, were first delivered as lectures at writers' conferences. Cap Snyder presents his vision of the new "nature" writing, and Donald Justice offers a probing look at three uncelebrated poets. Of particular note is Jane Smiley's contribution--"Can Mothers Think?"--in which her piquant observations concerning the effects of motherhood on writers (and the consequent changing image of mothers in literature) make for stimulating reading. All in all, an eclectic group of contemplative musings, with something of value for most readers and writers.

We're smack dab in the middle of the seed starting season, or maybe just getting ready to start in more northern climes. It seems like a good time to review some tips for germinating seeds and growing seedlings indoors ahead of outdoor planting. And while the basics of seed starting are pretty simple, there are always some tried-and-true tricks as well as some timely reminders to make your seed starting experience a worthwhile one. First time seed starter or someone who just wants to review the basics? Try here.
Most Important: The one thing we've found to be most important among many important things when starting seeds indoors? Moisture control. This means not only controlling the moisture in your starting mix, but providing the proper drainage. And, in the circular, everything-is-related-to-everything-else world of gardening, this means using the right starting mix. (more…)

The Kershaw County School District (KCSD) is among the lowest third group of South Carolina school districts in terms of combined state and local funding.
The Kershaw County School District has updated its PowerSchool Parent Portal to allow parents to access information for all their students with a single login.
Community volunteers, businesses and organizations donated time and goods valuing more than $1.4 million to the Kershaw County School District (KCSD) for the 2011-12 school year.
With the first day of school now past, the Kershaw County Board of School Trustees used part of its meeting Tuesday night to review and expand goals they set a year ago.
School has begun and students are waking up to alarm clocks set on their new Apple iPads.
As Kershaw County Schools opened its doors to students Monday, the Lugoff Fire Department (LFD) was there for the third year in a row with their fire trucks at two elementary schools early in the morning as students returned to class. Both an engine and ladder truck were sent from LFD headquarters to Wateree and Lugoff elementary Schools Monday morning as parents and buses brought students back to school on the nervous "first day".
Kershaw County Sheriff's Office (KCSO) school resource officers (SROs) will be in city of Camden schools Monday morning. There had been some confusion in recent days as to whether or not SROs would be in any Kershaw County School District (KCSD) schools inside the city limits.
The Kershaw County School District continues a series of back-to-school open house nights at school across the county.
A waiver of the South Carolina State Department of Education Elementary and Secondary Education Act, also known as No Child Left Behind (NCLB), will affect the way teachers and principals are evaluated in the state of South Carolina.
This summer, Santee Cooper provided hands-on experience in critical fields of the energy industry to two Kershaw County educators, as part of the 27th annual Energy Educators Institute series at the Wampee Conference Center in Pinopolis.
Five Kershaw County students graduated July 21 from the S.C. Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities' summer programs.
The United Way of Kershaw County's Hand in Hand Together mentoring program is gearing up for another year of encouraging and guiding Kershaw County School District (KCSD) students through the KCSD's Safe Schools/Health Students grant.
The Kershaw County School Board of Trustees unanimously approved the issuance of a general obligation bond for payments under the Installment Purchase Plan (IPP) and other debt payments at their Tuesday night board meeting.

Runner aims to back his way into record books
Published: Monday, November 9, 2009 at 11:29 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 9, 2009 at 11:29 a.m.
THIBODAUX Canadian-born Richard Strasbourg is having trouble moving forward in life.
Thats because hes focused his efforts in the opposite direction.
Strasbourg can routinely be seen running in reverse at E.D. White Catholic High Schools track.
He aims to make race history by running 13.1 miles a half marathon backward.
The attempt is set for Dec. 20 at the Old Man River Half-Marathon Race in New Orleans.
Its all part of my personal growth, Strasbourg said. Ive had to overcome a lot of fears to do what Im doing.
Strasbourgs ultimate goal is to secure himself a place in the Guinness Book of World Records, a compilation of record-setting feats.
He said his research determined no man has submitted an official claim.
They have a woman who did it, but no men, Strasbourg said.
Hes been training for the New Orleans race for more than a year. His time is down to 2 hours, 40 minutes.
It all began in Canada in the summer of 2008, he said. Im actually at a point now where I can run a mile in around 10 minutes backwards.
The 38-year-old made his way to south Louisiana 11 years ago via a program that recruits French-speaking people to teach American students.
Strasbourg, who also is an artist, photographer and illustrator, began running 14 years ago.
Since I arrived here, Ive joined some running clubs and made a lot of friends who have been supportive of me and what Im currently trying to accomplish, he said.
That support extends to the students and faculty at Chackbay Elementary School, where he works.
He tell students and co-workers what Im doing and how they too can do anything they want if they work hard at it, Strasbourg said.
Strasbourg trains several days a week, mixing up his routine by running backward and forward.
After running forward for a while, it feels good when I change to backwards because Im using different muscles, he said.
To qualify for the record book, Strasbourg must have two people witness the feat and fill out a slew of forms.
The biggest challenge is providing video proof of the feat.
I havent figured out how Im going to do that quite yet, Strasbourg said. If I turn around for just a split-second Ill be eliminated.
Chris Johnson, 30, who serves as president of the Houma-based Bayou Runners Association, said he admires Strasbourgs attempt, which is also serving as a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.

I am a medical professional whose career was cut short because a driver who was talking on a cell phone ran into me and broke my back and ruined my career. I wish the lawmakers would make a law prohibiting drivers from talking on cell phones while driving or doing anything else that is distracting.

There should be a law that prohibits drivers from doing anything else while driving, including talking or text messaging on their cell phones, eating and drinking, etc.

|Bug in IdentityHashMap
|Tue, 02 Oct 2007 15:27:06 GMT
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRMINA-452 Hi, I am contributing to the Qpid incubator project, and have discovered a bug in IdentityHashMap, that Mina is exposed to. I notice that IdentityHashMap is used a fair amount within the Mina code base, so thought I would take the additional step of mailing your dev list. Occasionally, certain sequences of put and iterator.remove() can fool the map into allowing put() to be called with a full table. It then loops forever looking for a free slot in the table. See the JIRA for sample code to expose the bug. This is a problem for Qpid as thgouh the VmPipeIdleStatusChcker class, but there may be other usages of IdentityHashMap.iterator.remove() in the Mina code base. Is there any possibility of creating a new 1.0.x release with a fix for this issue? Thanks. Rupert

Product Description
Winner of a 2008 Game Developer Front Line Award
"This book was clearly designed, not just written, and is an entire course in how to be a game designer. … The book is also intensely practical, giving some of the best advice on how to harness your own subconscious I've ever read, as well as short and useful descriptions of probability theory for non-mathematicians, how to diagram interest curves, working with a team, and dozens of other topics. It is simply the best text I've seen that really addresses what a designer should know, and then actually gives practical advice about how to gain that knowledge through life experience. It's a marvelous tour de force and an essential part of anyone's game design library."
―Noah Falstein, Gamasutra.com from Game Developer Magazine
"If you're nineteen and have no idea why you adore videogames―you're just enchanted by them, you can't help yourself―dude, is this ever the book for you. You are the core demographic for this particular textual experience. Put down the hand-controller, read the book right now. I can promise you that you will grow in moral and intellectual stature. Instead of remaining a twitchy, closeted, joystick geek, like you are now, you will emerge from this patient master-class as a surprisingly broadminded adult who quotes Herman Hesse and appreciates improvisational theater and Impressionist painting. You will no longer kill off parties with your Warcraft fixation. Instead, other people your age will find themselves mysteriously drawn to you ―to your air of quiet sympathy, your contemplative depth. Wise beyond your years, you will look beyond the surface details of shrieking monsters and into the deeper roots of human experience. Schell's creative approach is full of autarchic frontier self-reliance. Out there on Tomorrowland's Gameification Frontier, a theorist intellectual has to slaughter his own hogs and parse Aristotle's Poetics on the back of a shovel. But boy, it sure is roomy over there. It's a large, free, democratic book. It's Emersonian in its cheery disorganization. The book's like a barbaric yawp from the top of a Nintendo console.. I'd read it now, before things get out of hand."
―Bruce Sterling, "Beyond the Beyond" blog, Wired.com
"… a good book that teaches the craft of game design in an accessible manner. … The text goes just deep enough to give you practical insight into how the key concepts might be useful without becoming wordy. … If you are looking for a competent introduction to game design, this book is a good place to start."
―Daniel Cook, Gamasutra.com, February 2009
"As indicated by its title, Jesse Schell's The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses uses many different perspectives (the titular lenses), which each prompt their own important questions, ranging from 'What problems does my game ask the players to solve?' to 'What does beauty mean within the context of my game?' These distinct points are interwoven throughout a step-by-step analysis of the design process that begins with the designer and his or her basic idea, and builds successfully from there. As with Rules of Play, the wealth of information presented by The Art of Game Design may seem daunting at first, but Schell's agreeable voice eases the reader into a series of invaluable angles we can (and should) use to evaluate what we play."
"Easily the most comprehensive, practical book I've ever seen on game design."
―Will Wright, Designer of The Sims, SimCity, and Spore
"Jesse has lovingly crafted a great resource for both aspiring developers as well as seasoned gaming industry veterans. I highly recommend this book."
―Cliff "CliffyB" Bleszinski, CEO Boss Key and Former Design Director for Epic Games
"Inspiring and practical for both veterans and beginners."
―Bob Bates, Game Designer and Co-Founder of Legend Entertainment
"Jesse Schell's new book, The Art of Game Design, is a marvelous introduction to game design by a true master of the form. Schell is the rarest of creatures: a gifted teacher who is also a talented and successful current game designer. This book reflects Jesse's skill at presenting information clearly and coherently, and the knowledge he has acquired as a master game designer.
I have already referenced this book while preparing lectures and classes in the U.S., Germany, and New Zealand, and recommend it as an invaluable aid for anyone interested in game design. The Art of Game Design is a pitch-perfect blend of valuable knowledge and insights with an informal and compelling presentation.
The sections on harnessing the creative power of the subconscious mind are particularly insightful and delightfully written. It is immediately clear that Jesse Schell not only knows the theory behind what he writes about; he has also put it to use many times and honed his techniques to perfection. A must-read for anyone interested in interactive design, and even the creative process in general."
―Noah Falstein, Chief Game Designer, Google
"The Art of Game Design describes precisely how to build a game the world will love and elegantly crank it through the realities of clients and publishers. It draws wisdom from Disneyland to Michelangelo, gradually assembling a supply of concrete game design rules and subtle psychological tricks that actually work in surprising ways. It is fertilizer for the subconscious: keep a stack of post-it notes nearby to record all the game ideas that will sprout out of your own head while reading."
―Kyle Gabler, Game Designer and Founder of 2D Boy, Makers of World of Goo
"He embodies a tradition of reconciling diverse disciplines, extending the possibilities of each and creating new theories and opportunities for both industry and academia. Jesse is like the Einstein of Entertainment."
―Mk Haley, Walt Disney Research
"Packed with Jesse's real-world experience and humorous insight, The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses is a tool chest crossed with a kaleidoscope. Both fantastical and practical, methodical and wonder-full, this book and deck will have you looking at and dreaming up games with a fresh vision. Like a chemistry set for making mental explosions, it's an idea(l) book guiding the design process for both new and seasoned game designers. In short, using Jesse's book is FUN."
―Heather Kelley, Artist and Game Designer
"The Art of Game Design is one of a handful of books I continuously reference during production. Whether you're just starting out or looking for ways to approach your design from a fresh perspective, this book is a must for your library."
―Neil Druckmann, Creative Director on The Last of Us at Naughty Dog
"On games industry desks, books tend to come and go, but they all seem to go on top of Jesse Schell's The Art of Game Design because that's the one book that seems to stick around."
―Jason VandenBerghe, Creative Director, Ubisoft
"Ken Rolston, internationally celebrated game designer, recommends Jesse Schell's The Art of Game Design both for smart people and for people who are learning how to be smart."
―Ken Rolston, Director of Design, Turbine

Each chapter of the book adds a node to a network of relationships between the designer, the game, and the player. Throughout, Schell boxes 100 tips, with questions that induce a novel perspective on the design. He calls these lenses. I applaud the volume of diverse traditions, such as: psychology, storytelling, engineering, business, and management. They are so diverse as to change not only perspective, but also target. "The Lens of the Puzzle" looks at the mechanisms of the game; whereas, "The Lens of the Team" looks at the developers of the game. This is an eclectic approach that distills many abstract tips on what to consider when designing. Some experience and diligence with most of the 100 lenses would almost guarantee the reader is a competent designer.
Most lenses seemed crystal clear and provoked thoughts. Oftentimes, Schell deploys the wheels that others have invented. Many lenses refer to prior literature, such as Barry Boehm's spiral model of development (82), Scott Kim's thoughts on puzzles (209).
Furthermore, Schell gives us some original gems on the psychology of games that expanded my mind. He touches on the tactile aesthetics of the Rubik's cube (213), the learning curve of a jigsaw puzzle (215). He has some tips on personal communication that, upon reflection, exposed mistakes I have made, and would be more likely to continue to make had I not read Schell's advice. For example, in "Coping with Bad Suggestions," rather than agree or disagree, he advises to "understand why the client is making the suggestion" (417). He gives similarly important advice for playtesting (389).
Perhaps the inevitable danger of writing a comprehensive book is that one's own rough facets become apparent when placed side-by-side with one's brilliance. In a few spots, I would like to see wheels being reused rather than reinvented, such as mathematical graphs (132), epistemics of players (139), military tactics (141), risk and return (181), interface affordances (212), models of human-computer interaction (225), and plotting interest (247). I don't disagree with what Schell wrote there, but would rather dive deeper by leveraging prior literature (as he did in other lenses).
The book is well-presented with modest illustrations and easy to read from beginning to end. On an editorial note, although I affirm Schell's eclectic approach to game design, after reading the book, I wish it were easier to find the information I wanted to refer to. The table of lenses at the front of the book was not enough for me. The lens titles are not always evocative and distinct.
To summarize:
* What you will find in this book: informal habits of a professional game designer.
* What you will not find in this book: details or examples of designs and their implementation.
Game Developer magazine nominated The Art of Game Design for the Book of the Year. It got my vote.
Well written, informative and also a fun read. Other reviewers have other covered this, so I'll stop here: 5 stars for content.
Be warned if purchasing the Kindle edition that the formatting in the book has problems: margins are way too large in a number of places, the original index isn't hyperlinked properly (basically just a word list), and figure captions are often misplaced. It's legible, but not of professional quality, and certainly not worth the nearly paperback price they're asking for. 2 stars for typesetting.
If you can, buy a physical copy instead.
This one is unique.
Most game design books focus on teaching you how to make a good game, detailing what techniques and processes one must master to understand an audience, to design a product that will satisfy their needs and aspirations, and to work with a team to produce it. "The Art of Game Design" goes beyond that: It teaches you how to become a better designer.
Here's an excerpt from the Deck of Lenses' instructions (it's the deck of cards sold separately that illustrates the 100 design "lenses"):
How to Design a Game
Step 1: Think of an idea for a game (it's easy, it can be anything!)
Step 2: Try it out (no really - try it out - you have to play games to see if they work)
Step 3: Figure out what's wrong with it, and change it so it is better. Then go back to Step 2!
That's what game designers do, over and over again, until they're satisfied with the game or they run out of time or money. However, if there are lots of books out there that explain how to increase the quality of whichever aspect of the game you want to change, it's the first one that so directly and so thoroughly addresses the problem of "figuring out what's wrong" with a game at each iteration.
In the book, Jesse Schell presents one hundred ways of looking at your game in order to figure this out, one hundred lenses. Even if this number seems big, it really isn't, because the book covers every domain touched by design: from the nature of the playing experience itself, to understanding the player, the game mechanisms, interface, story, technology, theme, etc.
For instance, here's the sum-up of a lens taken at random:
Lens #82: The Lens of Inner Contradiction
A good game cannot contain properties that defeat the game's very purpose. To remove those contradictory qualities, ask yourself these questions:
- What is the purpose of my game?
- What is the purpose of each subsystem of my game?
- Is there anything at all in my game that contradicts these purposes?
- If so, how can I change that?
The book doesn't give answers but helps you ask the right questions. I think of this book as the Tao of Game Design, a path toward understanding, each step its own path that can be explored and perfected. The one hundred lenses are one hundred design domains in which a designer can become more proficient. Jesse Schell's knowledge, experience and talent are obvious when he clearly explains how to consider all these questions, why they are important and how they are linked together.
This book makes and helps me think. To me, that's the best things a book about design can do.
Perhaps the best part of this book is the lenses (which are detailed in the book and can be purchased separately in a handy "deck of cards" format). Particularly after you've read the book, these cards become a wonderful distilled version of the book's main design lenses. These lenses allow you to view your design in 100 different ways, many of which I promise you've never would have thought of. This is a very valuable tool kit for any designer.
Noobs and veterans' alike will find plenty to discover with in his book. When I have some free time I often find myself cracking the spine and simply picking a chapter at random, I always learn something new when I do.
Whether you're a lone-wolf designer or part of a team this book can definitely benefit anyone who reads it. Thank you Mr. Schell for a wonderful book!

A few years ago, on a hot summer day in Nashville, Tim and I were walking out of church hand in hand, me in a bright yellow A-line dress and him in a collared shirt and jeans, when an older man with a cowboy hat approached us. "Hola!" he shouted, smiling, reaching out his hand. A camera was around his neck. A woman was a few feet behind. I don't remember his next few words, only that they necessitated our explaining, no, we're not from another country; no, we're don't speak other languages; no, actually, we live here, yes, that's right, here, in this city, in Nashville, Tennessee. He asked to take our picture. Yes, to take our picture. We laughed retelling the story to friends over the next few weeks. I would laugh if I told it to you now. A complete stranger singled us out in a parking lot, misunderstood who we were and then deemed us novel enough to photograph us like an attraction at the zoo. But every now and then I still think about him, wonder about him, try to imagine what he … [Read more...]
in praise of the international grocery and, chickpea chocolate chip cookies
Step inside Patel Brothers, a large, stand-alone building sandwiched between U.S. Bank and McDonald's along the crowded, chaotic strip of South Nashville known as Nolensville Road, and you could easily forget you're in Tennessee. The atmosphere of this Indian market is bare-bones ambiance: plain floors, fluorescent lights, handwritten signs marking prices on produce--a far cry from the colorful signage and warm lighting of your average American grocery store--but, nonetheless, crowded, here on a weekday afternoon. Rocco and I are wandering the aisles, first the fresh produce, then the organic section (because, yes, this international store has its own organic section, made up largely of foods from 24 Mantra, a brand based in Hyderabad that's committed to offering foods that are pesticide-free), then each section one by one, while Tim's in a meeting next door. Rocco had gotten antsy in the car, walking around seemed like a good way to keep him entertained and, mostly, after spending a … [Read more...]
Roasted Baby Broccoli with Chili, Lemon and Dill
It's morning. I wake up, feed Rocco, put him back in his crib to play, read Deuteronomy, take a shower, make a smoothie and kiss Tim goodbye. Armed with a detailed list that's grouped by stores and then store sections (i.e., produce, pantry, meat, dairy, bread), I get in the car, plug in a podcast and head to the first of four grocery stores* I aim to knock out before Rocco again needs to eat. This is 2016, the year of meal-planning and sticking to the food budget, and that means early weekday mornings are my time to shop. Grocery shopping didn't used to be my favorite thing. I mean, it was my favorite thing when I was a teenager with a new driver's license, rich with free time and feeling that euphoric buzz of independence going to the store with Mom and Dad's money to get whatever kind of ice cream sounded good to me. My parents' house was just a mile from competing grocery stores that sit across the street from one another in suburban Chicagoland, and I watched each one go … [Read more...]
An Avocado Smoothie in a World of Smoothies and of Media
I had Rocco strapped into his high chair fingering a fat wedge of avocado the first time I thought to pick up the other, unsliced half, scoop out its pit, and dump the bright, green flesh into the Vitamix to blend up for a drink. Inspired by a Bon Appetit recipe I'd seen that combined half an avocado with a cup of water, a teaspoon each of agave and lime juice and then a little vanilla, I mixed those ingredients (subbing honey) along with some ice. I tasted it. More honey. I poured a glass. This pale green concoction came out sweet, thin, refreshing---the sort of thing you'd want to have sitting next to you while you're sitting next to the pool or at the beach. The squeeze (or, in my case, squeezes) of honey turned the typically blank taste canvas of the avocado into something that met and overpowered the very craving that, moments before deciding to make a smoothie, had seen me setting a pint of ice cream on the counter so it could get soft enough to scoop. Soon I was putting that … [Read more...]
Cashew Cream Raw Chocolate Cheesecake
When I think Valentine's Day, I think chocolate, so this February we're talking chocolate cheesecake, and not just any chocolate cheesecake, but raw chocolate cheesecake (or at least raw-ish), inspired by a dessert I've loved at Nashville's Avo, made with cashew cream and topped with a chocolate drizzle. It's rich, it's decadent, it's kind of a sacrificial splurge for the food budget, but, when it comes to treating someone else, I figure, those are all the perfect things for it to be. Rocco has this stuffed fox that's been with him since before he could know it was there---sitting near him in the carseat or the crib, coming along with us on long trips or to friends' houses, nowadays flopping around in his active hands while he plays in the mornings after waking up. I won it on an Instagram giveaway last spring, back when the idea of an actual child emerging from my increasingly large belly seemed unreal (in some ways, still does) and picturing someone I could hold in my hands … [Read more...]
A Nashville Snow Day
This morning when I heard Rocco crying and reached for the clock, it was 20 minutes past his usual wake time, an omen for a good day if ever there were one. I walked into his room, he gave me a big smile, I pulled up the window shade and, woah, am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? are we still in Nashville? Usually after I feed him that first time for the day, he plays quietly in his crib until falling back asleep, but today, instead, I bundled him up, bundled me up and headed outside to experience the surprising wonderland of Rocco's first snow, fat flakes hitting his eyelashes and little feet standing in the fresh inches covering our driveway. Even now, hours later, Rocco napping in his room and Tim and I sitting in the living room, I'm still awed by the scene unfolding around us, winds of white laying layer upon layer on our yard, the street, the trees, the cars. It hasn't stopped. A little while ago, I watched a group of five or six neighbor kids build a chubby snowman and dress … [Read more...]
In with the New: Greek Lemon Rice Soup
Whether your New Year's resolution is to eat more whole foods, cook more, meal plan, lower your grocery budget---or if you've made no resolutions or none that have to do with food---this simple, affordable, comforting Greek lemon rice soup, also known as avgolmeno, is a winner. Over the holidays, Tim and I spent a week at my parents' house in Naperville, Illinois, that affluent suburban town that saw me don braces, learn to drive, move away to college (and come back), enter the working world, spend hours on the phone long-distance dating and, five years ago in February (!), pack up a car to relocate to Tim and Tennessee. Free from routine responsibilities like dishes and making dinner and doing daily laundry, I finally took on the task I've been talking about trying for I don't know how long: I opened the door to the attic off my old bedroom's closet, flipped on the light and pulled out the giant, rectangular storage bin that had been holding my memories from the mid 1990s until … [Read more...]
2015, You Were Something
At the beginning of 2015, I was three months pregnant, about to get the first major head cold I'd had in years (for which we made this green healing soup, should you find that handy), about to go up to Chicago again since my mom was in the hospital. Over the following months, Mom stayed out of the hospital, my belly swelled larger, we did more work on the house, our families threw us a baby shower and then it was June, the month we expected Rocco to come. When Rocco came into the world on June 27, it was after two full, hard days of labor, with two full, slow days of labor before that. My water had broken, my cervix had fully dilated and I'd been pushing for close to two hours when Rocco's heart rate started dropping and the room's tone changed from expectancy ("any minute!") to fear ("Baby's in trouble!"). This day that Tim and I had been anticipating and longing for for nine months---longer than nine months, really---was finally here, we were supposed to be meeting our baby, my … [Read more...]
