The dreaded consequence of Paget's disease is sarcomatous transformation, a neoplasm with poor prognosis. This report describes a 61-year-old patient who developed two sarcoma in Paget disease: the first on right distal humerus and the second on right clavicle. Time elapsed beetwen lesions was 5 years. Clavicle's tumor should be considered as metastasis, but in our opinion, some interesting elements support theory of a second primitive tumor with a metachromous onset. We present clinical, radiological and pathological features of this case comparing it with a review of literature.
Sarcoma; Osteosarcoma; Paget's disease; Metachronous; Upper limb, Metastasis; Multiple primary
Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a skeletal disorder with the production of abnormally structured bony trabeculae and cortices that result in deformity and enlargement of a single or multiple bones. Pain, fracture and disability could occur as complications, although PDB is usually asymptomatic. Sarcomatous transformation is the dreaded consequence of PDB as widely reported by previous series [1-3], in literature it range from 0.15% to 3.4% [2,4]. The incidence of Paget's sarcoma increases steadily with age until the seventh decade of life [5].
Risk factors have not been described. Some authors found a higher incidence of sarcomatous transformation in patients affected by polyostotic or widespread PBD [4,6-9]. However, it is a controversial issue. A recent wide series reported by Ruggieri et al. [10] didn't find any correlation between the extension of PDB and risk of malignant transformation.
A sarcoma should be suspected when new pain and some radiographical changes develop in a bone previously affected by PDB. Other symptoms can include soft tissue swelling or pathological fractures. The serum alkaline phosphatase which is elevated with Paget's disease may rise further with onset of sarcoma. Unfortunatly these are not specific clinical feaures of a malignant trasformation, infact the presence of pain and swelliung can be mistaken with natural history of PDB, expecially during an early stage of tumor.
Sarcoma in PDB has a poor prognosis compared with others bone sarcomas [3,10,11]. This discrepancy could be explained by an elderly mean age of presentation, that imply decrased immunity, poor general health, and low tolerance for convenctional chemotherapy and radiotherapy [10].
A rare form of multifocal sarcoma in PDB was described in literature [2,6,7,9]. Vuillemin-Bodaghi et al. [12] reviewed literature and stated that 2.4-17% of all Paget sarcomas are multifocal. Even though the theory of multiple primary was not universally accepted, some authors considered multiple bone lesions as metastatic dissemination.
We describe a patient affected by two osteosarcoma in PDB, arose in two different sites with a time interval of 5 years.
A 61-year-old man came to our department for pain and swelling on right elbow, started 6 weeks earlier. He referred a worsening of symptoms with increasing pain and occasional ulnar nerve paresthesia. His history was clear by tumors, neurological disease or other significant illness. A traumatic fracture of right clavicle occurred about 30 years earlier was the only significant finding.
On examination patient had a swelling on the lateral elbow condyle. Pain occurred under digital pressure on lesion, range of motion was limited by pain at 80° in flexion and 15° in extension, pronation was 50°, supination 70°.
Radiograph Figure 1 showed a bone lesion in the distal third of right humerus with mixed pattern. A main lytic area with an erupted cortex and extension in soft tissue was clearly visible on medial side. No sclerotic rim or periosteal reactions were present. X-rays also showed a thinned cortex on the epycondile, and a mixed pattern of trabecular bone all around the main lytic lesion. These features suggested an underlying Paget disease. Anyway diagnosis of Paget was stated only after biopsy result.
A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated the aggressive and destructive nature of the process, neoplasm erupted extensively the cortex and involved soft tissues with medial and proximal extension. The heterogeneous low signal intensity of the tumor on T1 weighted images increased after intravenous gadolinium administration and high signal intensity on T2 weighted images.
No lesions were observed on Computed Tomography (CT) of the lung. Laboratory tests were normal, including alkaline phosphatase (179 U/l) and lactate dehydrogenase (288 U/l).
A bone scan with 99mTcMDP showed an intense uptake of the distal humerus and a uniform uptake on right clavicle. On X-rays pathognomonical features of PDB were present: Bone with areas of coarsened trabeculae, bony enlargement and sclerosis tipical of Paget's advanced stage. CT showed mixed lytic and sclerotic changes involving all clavicle body: a lytic process spreads in medial third in a wedge or "V cut cone" shape, lateral end of clavicle showed increasing bone density and thickened cortex (Figure 2).
An incisional bone biopsy from distal humerus revealed a high grade osteosarcoma. We performed a wide margins resection of right distal humerus and reconstruction with uncemented modular elbow prostheses (HMRS®, Stryker Howmedica). All nerves were preserved. After surgery we immobilized right arm in a cast for two weeks until the wound healed.
Pathologic examination result was Gr. 4 osteoblastic osteosarcoma on Paget disease (Figure 3). The stage was IIB. Histological slides showed highly pleomorphic tumor cells producing a wide laminar osteoid. Pathological tissue permeated marrow spaces and trapping host trabecular bone. Atypical mitotic figures, hemorrhage, necrosis and cystic alterations were spread. The presence of giant multinucleated osteoclasts, and pagetoid bone with the typical mosaic pattern suggested an underlying Paget's bone disease.
After surgery patient started adjuvant chemotherapy with 3 cycles of Cisplatin, Adriamycin and Ifosfamide following EUROBOSS I protocol [13]. The patient has been submitted every 3 months to clinical and radiographical control, no local recurrence and metastasis were observed. Functional result at 6 months was good: Active flexion-extension of right elbow was 140°-40°, prono-supination was possible for about 2/3 of normal range, functions of right wrist and hand were normal, no pain was referred.
At 18 months of follow-up from surgery a chest CT showed 2 suspect metastasis to the right lung. A double wedge resection was performed and histological examination confirmed diagnosis of osteosarcoma metastasis for both lesions (Figure 4). At 29 months of follow-up from elbow surgery another wedge resection was performed to excise one metastasis to the left lung. Afterward a new chemotherapy cycle was completed with oral Etoposide administered for 6 months.
During subsequent follow-up no evidences of disease were observed. At 5.6 years from first surgery (3.2 years after last wedge resection) patient came back to control with swelling without pain on the right clavicle, affected by Paget's disease. Clavicle was expanded, thickened and hard.
At X-rays small eccentric area of lytic lesion with indefinite margins appeared on the medial third of the clavicle if compared with previous radiographs.
On CT a lobulated lytic lesion with poorly circumscribed edges and destroyed cortex was observed, a soft tissue mass erupted and involved anterior and upper side (Figure 5). An FFDG PET/CT confirmed this area as a high metabolic site (SUV 11), without any other uptake.
A complete resection of the clavicle with wide margins was performed. Osteosarcoma in Paget's disease was the histological diagnosis. On slides neoplastic tissue showed the same features of previous distal humerus osteosarcoma (Figures 6 and 7).
A new chemotherapy with 4 cycles of Etoposide, Adriamycin and Ifosfamide was administered to the patient. There was no evidence of disease until 5 months. Afterward, new pulmonary metastases were diagnosed. Actually patient is alive with disease at 6.8 years of follow-up. The last cycle of chemotherapy for palliation was performed 3 months ago.
The association between sarcoma and PDB was widely described in literature [1-3,10,11,14]. Nevertheless is difficult to determine an exact incidence of sarcomatous degeneration without certain about PDB'incidence. Indeed exist a large amount of popolation affected by asymptomatic Paget's disease, this prevent diagnosis and confuse statistics. Anyway if we consider only patients with a diagnosis of PDB, sarcoma had an incidence ranging around 1% [2,8,15].
The introduction of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and new surgical skills had improved outcome of patients affected by musculoskeletal tumors, unfortunately this is not true for sarcomas in PDB. In literature a median survival rate range from 8 months to 2.5 years [3]. Possible explanations can be the highest mean age of patients, that limits the effectiveness of chemotherapy and clinical and radiological features of PDB that makes an early diagnosis quite difficult [15].
Pathogenesis of malignant degeneration in PDB is still totally unclear. This is a relevant question that hopefully need to be raised in future. At this moment should be helpful to identify some risk factors to perform an early diagnosis of such aggressive tumor.
Some authors reported polyostotic PDB as a risk factor: a widespread disease should increase the possibility of malignancy [1,3,6-9]. Our patient was affected by PDB only on distal right humerus and right clavicle. This limited extension seems support evidences of Ruggieri and Seitz [10,15] that did not observe a higher risk in patients with extensive and polyostotic PDB.
Fracture of pagetic bone was reported as a risk factor [15]. In our case a fracture of clavicle occurred about 30 years before tumor diagnosis, a too long time frame to relate these two events.
Few papers about multifocal Paget's sarcoma have been reported. Since 1980 less than 20 cases have been described [1,6,7,12], all of these had a synchronous presentation. Despite a long debate started in 1922 with Fedder [16], who first reported a multicentric case, there is still no agreement about the nature of this unusual presentation: Should we consider multiple lesions as multiple primary synchronous tumors or as metastases? Even though we cannot assume with certainty that clavicular lesion of our patients is a metastasis or a second primary tumor, we believe that some unique features of this case should contribute to debate.
After elbow resection multiple pulmonary metastasis demonstrated that the tumor was widespread in all body. Despite this dissemination the unique bone lesion arose in unique site affected by PDB. Could PDB support the onset of metastases or we have to consider it a second primary lesion? Is not clear if bone affected by PDB is a suitable site for metastasis: Smith et al. [1] excluded that vascular and metabolic modification of PDB could favor the onset of metastasis as previous assumed by other authors [17-21].
Another meaningful element to consider is the long interval between humeral tumor and following clavicle involvement. Our patients had the clavicle diagnosis at 5.5 years after elbow resection, 3.2 years after last wedge resection for lung metastasis, a quite long period with no evidence of disease considering the hight malignancy grade. This time lapse could be explained with a metachronous presentation. Choquette et al. [6] suggested that two different localizations of disease degenerate in different times.
In summary, we cannot stated if our case have to be considered a methacronous presentation of tumor or simply a metastasis, but we hope to offer a cantribute to debate submitting some elements that support metachronous primary tumor hypothesis.

What is the best way to handle fogging in a Level A suit face visor?
Presented by: DuPont™ Personal Protection
What is the best way to handle fogging in a Level A suit face visor?
Getting comfortable in your Level A safety suit is no easy feat. When you're working, you might notice your visor starting to fog up and reducing visibility. It's a frustrating situation, but it's not uncommon.
The Level A suit's tight fit is what keeps you safe, but it also reduces airflow inside the suit. All the heat and moisture trapped inside can cause the visor to fog up. If the outside of your visor fogs up, you can wipe it with your glove or grab something nearby to wipe it with. But what about fogging on the inside?
Moving to a safe location and removing the suit to wipe away the fog is not always possible and is never convenient. Thankfully, there's an easier solution. You can wear absorbent material on your forehead before putting on the suit. Then, when your visor starts to go up, use your hand to push the material and nod your head to wipe away the condensation.
Any soft, absorbent material will do the trick, but some popular choices are bandanas and sponge strips held in place with an elastic band.

Drawing Mr Handsome - My First Illustration Video
After watching wonderful illustrators such as Holly Exley and Frannerd on YouTube, I love the idea of making videos of drawing. I find illustration videos really relaxing and interesting to watch. I also love the ones where drawing is shown in real time rather than shown in timelapse as I think it allows you to really see the technique used by the creator. So here's my first attempt. I find myself drawing a character I like to call Mr Handsome over and over again so he seemed to be a logical first subject. I used an iPhone SE to film and iMovie to do a little editing. I really am very much a beginner and never underestimate just how much work vloggers do to make their videos so beautiful! I hope you enjoy it : )

Love and Faith
There is no feat accomplished in me
without the hand of God.
And in Him I see the light on the sea,
He fills me with unfailing Love.
So I step from the beach, in You I beseech;
give me the strength from Heaven above.
Transform my mind, renew my soul, remove all doubts and feelings of low.
For You mold me with Your bare hands.
And day by day I wear Your brand.
There once was a point, a time in my life;
where wounds ran deep like cuts from a knife.
But now I have faith, and now I feel Love.
Because You give me the strength from Heaven above.

Sponsored Post: This post is sponsored by Post Consumer Brands, but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.
We've partnered up with Post Cereal to get fancy and creative with Grape-Nuts® cereal. This is a cereal I've purchased many times before, but never ate as anything but just that. It was fun getting creative in the kitchen with Lo again to make something healthy and delicious that she too could make + enjoy. We brainstormed a few ideas, but decided on this. It was quick and easy and didn't require much time or energy.
Ingredient List:
1 Banana
Your favorite peanut butter
Post® Grape-Nuts® Cereal ----> as little or as much as you choose.
Cut banana as desired. We cut the banana in half and then cut into three, because using a knife in the kitchen is a novelty with this girl, so all the cuts! Haha
Next, coat banana pieces with Peanut butter. We used Smucker's Natural Chunky, and it was so creamy and great for spreading, plus it is such a delicious PB.
Sprinkle or dunk your pieces with Grape-Nuts® cereal. Use more for added crunch or less if you prefer a smoother bite.
We drizzled agave nectar over our plate for added taste and aesthetic. ; )
You could drizzle anything really, but you absolutely do not need to.
It is such a yummy treat without.
This serves as a great breakfast dish, but really could be eaten any time of the day.
We are excited to try out some of the other ideas we came up with using Grape-Nuts® cereal. We especially love it's crunchy texture, and the fact that you could incorporate it into many things-- think: baked goods, smoothies, topping in a yogurt bowl, to name a few.
Before you make this recipe, or try something else listed above, make sure you print out this COUPON to get a discount on Post® Grape-Nuts® and other great Post® cereals.
Enjoy #spoonfulsofgoodness with every box of Post® Grape-Nuts®.

Ray Flanagan with Sunday selections
Punchestown 4.20- Folsom Blue
Although lacking the scope and size of a typical staying chaser, Folsom Blue has been a consistent type in this sphere for Mouse Morris over the last couple of seasons. His last strong run over fences was almost eleven months ago now where he was just denied by Abolitionist at Naas.
Having gone a bit stale for Mouse towards the end of last season, the horse appears to have been revitalised for the switch to Gordon Elliot, albeit he has only raced over hurdles yet for his new handler. Those three hurdle outings have all been eye-catching though and this contest looks tailor -made for him reverting to fences.
The main concern is that the race will come too soon after a surprise trip to Sandown eight days ago but at least we know the horse is in good form and we will take the risk.
Exeter- 3.35-Henri Parry Morgan
Has been underwhelming since a fine campaign as a novice back in 2016. Signs of a return to form on debut at Newbury this season and I could not judge his latest run at Plumpton too harshly given that he was lumping 12 stone over 3M 4 F on heavy ground- something which was always going to be too much for a temperamental sort like him.
Has a much better chance over 3miles with less weight on his back here and if jumping fluently it could be the time for him to re-discover his best efforts.

When Marriage Burn Out Leads To Infidelity/
Most affairs have characteristics of this type of affair, but this is also its own separate category.
What Is The Burned Out Affair?
This is an affair that occurs because the spouse doesn't care about the future of the marriage. They have reached a place where they simply don't care about being with their spouse.
The betrayer feels beat up by the negative cycle the couple has experienced and as a result they start to feel resentment, they feel alone, sad and simply start caring less about the marriage.
They get into an affair either as a way to end the relationship or they are very susceptible to an affair because they are investing so little into the marriage. When working with this type of affair the betrayer may experience the feelings of ambiguity about staying in the marriage.
What Do You Commonly See With A Burned Out Affair?
Surprisingly, many spouses will give off figurative 'warning shots'. You'll hear things like we really need to talk about xyz. They sometimes sound like they're nagging or complaining. Then they typically will make threats like, "I will leave if you don't...." you fill in the blank. But then over time when things don't change they start to back off and loose hope. They'll grow quiet and stop talking. Sometimes they just leave. Sometimes they let you know they're leaving...but either way you wake up and they're either gone physically or gone emotionally.
Sometimes burned out spouses don't complain....but most of the time they fall in that pursuer "complainer" category. If you're on the receiving end of the complaining...don't ignore the warning shots whatever you do. You will regret it. Even the sweetest Christian couples get a shock to the heart when their spouse doesn't believe in divorce but the love is just not there anymore.
What Can You Do Now?
Here's what you can do right now. First, you are reading this post searching...great start! Next, you need to research and find the best couples therapist...of course we fit that bill for you so now you need to understand how to get started.
If you're not sure if we're the right fit for you then you'll want to choose the right green button for you to the right and watch the videos. It will explain everything. If you don't have time for videos no worries! You can take a quick quiz and set your first appointment right away.
Not sure about marriage counseling? Not sure it's a good investment for you? No worries! The video will help you learn more in the comfort of your home or office. We've got a solid track record. Just read our reviews!

Pulse stores the TM1 server name and instance name in the Pulse databases. Pulse stores the data in the databases by server name and instance name. If you have to rename the server name where TM1 is installed or to rename the TM1 instance name, you will have to update the databases with a script.
You would require to do this if you're migrating from one box to another where the server name will be different or when upgrading from Cognos Express to TM1 and you don't want to keep the CXMD instance name.
In order to do that we've added 2 new scripts in C:\Program Files\Pulse for TM1\utils which will update the Pulse databases and rename the VCS folder:
- ServerNameUpdate.bat: rename the server name
- ServiceNameUpdate.bat: rename the service name
Pulse services have to be stopped before running these batch files.
In order to run a batch file:
- open the command lines:
- go to the utils folder cd C:\Program Files\Pulse for TM1\utils:
- Just type the bat file you want to run e.g ServerNameUpdate.bat to see the help
- To rename a server name from A to B you'll need to type ServerNameUpdate.bat A B and then press enter (do not forget to stop the Pulse services).

Stuffing the Bibliotaphe Closet
By Zara D. Garcia-Alvarez / @ZaraAlexis
It's been a while since I've posted about my book inventory and in the absence of blogging, I've lost track of a number of books I have either bought or received from publishers either for review or as prizes. (I think I might be getting coal this year for Christmas.)
That said, I do have books that I just recently received, which I'm more than happy to share with you.
Books for Review:
Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin
Happiness. Everyone wants it. Not everyone enjoys it. Me? Well, I know I could be happier. What better way to start than at home?
A special thanks to Random House of Canada on behalf of Anchor Canada for sending me a copy of this book for review. It comes out in paperback on December 31.
The Start Here Diet by Tosca Reno
I've always struggled with my weight—except for the time when I was a long-distance runner and a member of my school's track team. But, it's been a long time since I've pounded the pavement and after two babies and a million donuts later…well…my body isn't what it should be. That said, I'm grateful to be able to review this book in time for the New Year. I'll not only get to review it, but maybe be able to shed a few pounds as well. I'm not great with diets (I love my bread and cheese too much), but I have to start somewhere.
A special thanks to Random House of Canada on behalf of Appetite for sending me a copy of this book for review. It publishes on December 31.
Prizes I Won:
Iron Man Hulk: Heroes United DVD by Marvel
Anything that has to do with LEGO, Transformers, DC, or Marvel, will always grab my attention—for the sake of my awe-inspired and obsessed nine-year-old son. He lives and breathes LEGO, Transformers, DC, and Marvel as if he created these toy/comic brands himself. He absolutely LOVES them. Because of that, I didn't hesitate to enter a contest hosted by Nickelodeon DVD on Twitter. Lucky me (and my son), I won!
A special thanks to Nickelodeon DVD for this great prize! We both look forward to watching it together over the Christmas holidays.

It's Monday! What are you reading?/ posted in: Bookish Life, Reading
Finished This Week
Yes to American Panda and No to The Belles
What Am I Reading?
I am leaving this week for my annual silent retreat. Some people head to monasteries. I go to vet conferences in Las Vegas. For a week I listen to lectures for 8 hours a day and speak to no one but waiters. It is lovely. I haven't done as much prep as normal yet.
Things to do:
Search out the latest and greatest vegan offerings in Vegas– Done and some reservations made including a restaurant where you eat in the dark and have no idea what you are eating
- Download harp albums from the library onto my phone to lull me to sleep during my flight
- Pick out what lectures I'm going to. This is started. I'm down to about 2-4 per hour that I'd like to hear. It is hard this year to narrow them down. Only vets have thoughts like, "Chronic diarrhea lecture with free food? That sounds good. But that's the same time as Handling Nasty Infected Wounds- now with extra pictures! Such a hard choice…."
- Pick out what books I'm taking. I know, this should be priority one. I get so much reading done in these weeks. I keep thinking that I have so many books on my iPad and through that have access to my library and Amazon, so why plan? This way lies madness, I know. I'm know I'm running out of time to read A Wrinkle in Time before the movie comes out. I have a vague recollection of DNFing this book as a kid. I thought it was boring. I want to revisit that before the movie.
What Am I Listening To?
"Since his arrival at The Daily Show in 1999, Jon Stewart has become one of the major players in comedy as well as one of the most significant liberal voices in the media. In Angry Optimist, biographer Lisa Rogak charts his unlikely rise to stardom. She follows him from his early days growing up in New Jersey, through his years as a struggling standup comic in New York, and on to the short-lived but acclaimed The Jon Stewart Show. And she charts his humbling string of near-misses—passed over as a replacement for shows hosted by Conan O'Brien, Tom Snyder, and even the fictional Larry Sanders—before landing on a half-hour comedy show that at the time was still finding its footing amidst roiling internal drama."
I was thrashing around looking for an audiobook. I DNFed one and wandered away from another but I'll probably go back to it. I have a highly anticipated one hitting Audible in about a week so I'm killing time with this one. Not a great recommendation I know, but it is entertaining enough.

Why you will love it
Headstand and Shoulderstand (Sirsasana and Sarvangasana) are often called the King and Queen poses of Yoga. For the beginner and even the intermediate practitioner, these poses have significant boundaries that make them difficult to practice safely. However, if practiced with awareness and ease, these poses can elucidate the inner forms of yoga to the practitioner, guiding them back to stillness of mind and body. Beginners welcome with safe options provided for all levels.
Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar) form another core aspect of a Hatha-vinyasa yoga practice. An ancient sequence of movements that when practiced properly, sets the tone for your entire practice and informs the movements in each posture that follows. In this workshop we will explore and build your practice of Surya Namaskar, Sirsasana and Sarvangasana, building the strength and awareness to practice each safely and with their original intention: to free preconditioned patterns of mind and body.

Ask Me Now
First recorded July 23, 1951 (Blue Note 1591), this is regarded as one of Monk's most beautiful ballads, along with Monk's Mood, Ruby, My Dear, Crepuscule with Nellie, and Pannonica. (We might also include 'Round Midnight, except that he often played it at a medium tempo.) — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and titled it »How I Wish«. At least three artists recorded the song with Hendricks's lyrics.
Ba-lue Bolivar Ba-lues-Are (aka Bolivar Blues)
First recorded October 9, 1956 (Riverside LP12-226) The title refers to the Hotel Bolivar in Manhattan, then the home of the Baroness Nica de Koenigswarter.
Bemsha Swing
Co-written Denzil Best, it was sometimes referred to as »Bimsha Swing« and even recorded under that title by trombonist J. J. Johnson. Monk first recorded »Bemsha Swing« on December 18, 1952 (Prestige LP7027).
This solo piano blues was only recorded once, on October 22, 1959, in San Francisco (Riverside RLP12-312)
Blue Monk
Monk recorded »Blue Monk« more than any other composition besides »'Round Midnight.« His first recording dates back to September 22, 1954 (Prestige PRLP 189 LP7027). — Abbey Lincoln added lyrics and recorded it under the title »Monkery's the Blues«. Monk himself was summoned to the studio to hear Lincoln's version and to get his blessings. He approved.
Blues Five Spot (aka Five Spot Blues)
First recorded July 9, 1958 (Milestone M-9124, Riverside RIV-4005/5), the title refers to the Five Spot Café, where Monk was playing when he recorded this song for the first time. It was originally located at Five Cooper Square in the East Village, until it moved to Third Avenue and East 7th St.1962. — Giacomo Gates added lyrics and recorded it as »Five Cooper Square«. The title refers to the address of the original Five Spot Café.
Blue Sphere
A medium tempo, classic twelve-bar blues for solo piano, »Blue Sphere« was recorded only once, on November 15, 1971, during a session in London (Black Lion BLP30119). If anything, it is a tribute to Jelly Roll Morton and all the great stride pianists of the old barrelhouse and »rent party« tradition. The London sessions, which also included Al McKibbon (bass) and Art Blakey (drums), would prove to be Monk's last studio recordings as a leader.
Bolivar Blues (see Ba-lue Bolivar Ba-lues-Are)
Boo Boo's Birthday
Recorded only once, on December 21, 1967 (Columbia CS9632), Monk wrote this song for his daughter Barbara, whose nickname was »Boo Boo.«
Brake's Sake
First recorded on October 15, 1955 (Signal S1201), with a quartet led by alto saxophonist Gigi Gryce.
Bright Mississippi
Frst recorded on May 10, 1961 (Ingo 8) at a concert in Berne, Switzerland. It is a completely original melody based loosely on the chord changes of »Sweet Georgia Brown.«
Brilliant Corners
First recorded on October 15, 1956 (Riverside RLP12-226), this composition proved notoriously difficult for Monk's band, which included Sonny Rollins (tenor), Ernie Henry (alto), Oscar Pettiford (bass), and Max Roach (drums). After twenty-five attempts, the final recorded version consisted of parts of various takes spliced together. It was recorded only one other time, on November 20, 1968, with Oliver Nelson's Orchestra (Columbia CS9806).
First recorded on October 15, 1952 (Prestige 795 LP7027), it is unique for its Caribbean-inflected rhythms.
Children's Song (aka That Old Man)
Recorded once on October 7, 1964, it is Monkishly altered version of the traditional ditty, »This Old Man,« also known as »The Children's Marching Song.«
Recorded only once in London on November 15, 1971 (Black Lion CD760142), it is not a composition, per se, but a very musical and coherent improvised warm-up exercise on solo piano. It was not released on the original LP because it was not considered to be a song. But just about everything Monk plays possesses the quality of a complete composition.
Coming on the Hudson
First recorded on February 25, 1958, at a session led by Johnny Griffin (Milestones M-9124, Riverside RIV-4005/4), Monk secured a copyright on December 22nd of that year (Jazz Standard Music Publishers). Monk lived a couple of blocks from the Hudson River for most of his life and enjoyed the sound of the various boats »coming on the Hudson.«
Crepuscule with Nellie
First recorded on June 25, 1957 (although the first released take was recorded the following day [Riverside RLP12-242]), this beautiful ballad is unusual in that it is his only composition played straight through without improvisation. »Crepuscule« was written in 1957 while Nellie was in the hospital to undergo surgery. Monk had come up with the title »Twilight with Nellie« but the Baroness, who was at the hospital at the time, promptly suggested the French word for twilight: »crépuscule.« — Soesja Citroen added lyrics and recorded it as In Twilight.
Criss Cross
First recorded on July 23, 1951 (Blue Note 1590, 1509), critic and composer Gunther Schuller called it »the Monk masterpiece of this period.« So enthused with »Criss Cross,« Schuller used it as the basis for his tribute to Monk titled »Variants on a Theme of Thelonious Monk« (1960).
One of Monk's earliest compositions, it was co-written with drummer Kenny Clarke and went by various names; Clarke called it Fly Right or Fly Rite, it was called Iambic Pentameter, and known, too, as simply "The Theme" since it was used by Minton's House band to open and close a set. It was first recorded by the Minton's House band on June 7, 1941, but the first version by Monk issued appeared on his first Blue Note recordings (July 2, 1948, Blue Note 548, 1510). — Giacomo Gates added lyrics and recorded it under Kenny Clarke's title, »Fly Rite«.
An unusually "boppish" tune for Monk, was co-written with pianist Sadik Hakim (Argonne Thornton) and trumpeter Idrees Sulieman, and first recorded on July 23, 1951 (Blue Note 1590, 1509). »Eronel« was named after Lenore Eisner, whom Sadik Hakim was dating at the time. Initially, neither Hakim nor Sulieman were given co-composers credit, but since then their names have been restored as original co-authors.
First recorded on July 2, 1948 (Blue Note 549, 1509), it went by various names, notably »Justice« and »We Named it Justice.« It puns off of the song on which it was loosely based, »Just You, Just Me« (by Jesse Greer and Raymond Klages), which transforms the title to »Just Us,« which in turn became »Justice« and ultimately »Evidence.«
Feeling That Way Now (see Monk's Mood)
52nd Street Theme
Ironically, Monk never recorded »52nd Street Theme.« Also known as »Nameless,« and simply »The Theme,« it was widely used as a vehicle for Dizzy Gillespie's various bands, among others.
Five Spot Blues (see Blues Five Spot)
Five Will Get You Ten (see Two Timer)
Fly Right (see Epistrophy)
Four in One
First recorded on July 23, 1951 (Blue Note 1589), »Four in One« was known to have a particularly treacherous melody built on sixteenth note phrases (hence the name-a quarter note [one ›beat‹] divided into sixteenth notes [four ›beats‹]).
Friday the Thirteenth
First recorded on Friday the 13th, 1953, it refers not only to the day but the turn of events-tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins was delayed because of a car accident and trumpeter Ray Copeland fell ill and French horn virtuoso Julius Watkins had to fill in at the last minute. The result was a remarkable session, including a swinging interpretation of this deceptively simple repeating bar theme.
There are actually two different versions of the blues given the title »Functional,« which was probably just a name made up on the spot. Both takes were recorded the same day, April 16, 1957, and never recorded again. According to one report, after hearing a playback of one of his takes of »Functional,« he said: »Well, that sounds like James P. Johnson.« Johnson, one of the great Harlem stride pianists, was one of Monk's musical heroes.
Gallop's Gallop
First recorded on October 15, 1955, with Gigi Gryce as leader. This incredibly complicated melody was only recorded one other time, in November of 1964 when Monk's quartet played at the It Club in Los Angeles.
Green Chimneys
Another one of Monk's later compositions, it was first recorded on November 14, 1966, although this particular take was not released until 1996. The take that was released initially was recorded a year later, on December 14, 1967 (Columbia CS9632). »Green Chimneys« is named after the school Barbara Monk attended at the time-a progressive private boarding school located in Putnam County, New York.
First recorded on May 11, 1954 (Prestige PRLP 180), it was also the first day Monk recorded in Rudy Van Gelder's famous studio in Hackensack, New Jersey (hence the title). »Hackensack« bears some resemblance to a Coleman Hawkins composition he must have played when he was with Hawk's band, and an arrangement of »Lady Be Good« by Mary Lou Williams.
Is Awful Messy-Co-written with Oran »Hot Lips« Page and Joe Guy, this hilarious jump tune (with lyrics!) was never recorded. It was copyrighted by the trio on September 16, 1941.
Hornin' In
Recorded only one time (four takes), on May 30, 1952, during his last session for Blue Note as a leader. His sextet consisted of an all-star line up: Kenny Dorham (trumpet), Lou Donaldson (alto); Lucky Thompson (tenor), Nelson Boyd (bass), Max Roach (drums). It first appeared on Blue Note 1603.
Another early classic, Humph was only recorded once (three takes) during Monk's first recording session as a leader (October 15, 1947). It first appeared on Blue Note 560.
I Mean You (aka Stickball)
First recorded in December of 1946 by Coleman Hawkins, not Monk. The band included Fats Navarro on trumpet and J. J. Johnson on trombone, and in the piano stool was a very young Hank Jones fresh from Detroit. It would be another year and a half before Monk recorded »I Mean You« (July 2, 1948 [Blue Note 1564, 1510]. — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and retitled it »You Know Who«. Several artists recorded the vocal version.
Iambic Pentameter (see Epistrophy)
Introspection (aka Playhouse)
Originally titled »Playhouse« as a tribute to Minton's, this song was first recorded for Blue Note on October 24, 1947, but was not released until 1956! Monk wrote it during his association with Dizzy Gillespie's big band and Walter Gil Fuller wrote an arrangement of »Playhouse,« but there is no record of the band recording it, let alone playing it. It's unusual thirty-six bar structure and wandering chord progressions set it apart from the music identified as »bebop.«
In Walked Bud
First recorded on November 21, 1947 (Blue Note 548), it was written for Monk's very good friend, pianist Bud Powell. It is based on the chord changes for Irving Berlin's »Blue Skies.« — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and retitled it »Suddenly«. Several artists recorded the vocal version.
First recorded on June 4, 1959 (Riverside RLP12-305), Monk named this song after his niece, Jackie Smith. This sixteen bar theme is written as a dynamic, processional march, but after the melody is stated it swings extremely hard. After 1960, »Jackie-ing« became a regular part of the Monk quartet's live repertoire.
Let's Call This
First recorded on November 13, 1953, on that famous »Friday the Thirteenth« date (see above), and released on Prestige PRLP 166. Another one of Monk's remarkable compositions, he only recorded it one other time: live at the Blackhawk in San Francisco on April 29, 1960 (Riverside RLP12-323). His quartet expanded to a sextet with the addition of Joe Gordon and Harold Land, and Billy Higgins sat in on the drums. It is doubtful that anyone had much time to rehearse »Let's Call This,« which had not been part of the band's repertoire. Nevertheless, they turn in excellent results.
Let's Cool One
First recorded in on May 30, 1952 (Blue Note 1602, 1511), it was probably given that name because it is a relaxed, medium tempo tune without a lot of intervallic leaps. The songs recorded just prior to »Let's Cool One« were complex, up tempo tunes like »Skippy« (three takes) »Hornin' In« (two takes), and »Sixteen« (two takes), which apparently required a lot more work-even from a band made up of bebop's top musicians. »Let's Cool One« was done in one take. — Soesja Citroen added lyrics and recorded it as »Come With Me«.
Light Blue
The first recorded evidence of this tune comes from a radio broadcast from Pep's Music Lounge in Philadelphia, where Monk led a trio on February 9, 1957, consisting of Jimmy Bond and bass and Albert »Tootie« Heath on drums. Interestingly, the first official recording of »Light Blue« was also live, this time at the Five Spot Café on August 7, 1958. It is not a blues but rather a sixteen-bar theme played at a slow, plodding tempo built on descending chord progressions.
Little Rootie Tootie
First recorded on October 15, 1952 (Prestige 850), was named for Monk's son, Thelonious, Jr., who was two years old at the time. He earned the nickname »Toot« after »Little Toot the Tugboat« from a favorite Walt Disney cartoon; young Thelonious learned to whistle-like »Little Toot«-before he learned to talk. The song has also been associated with the sound of the railroad, a common motif in blues and jazz since the early part of the century. (See Monk's »Locomotive.«)
First recorded on May 11, 1954 (Prestige PRLP 180), it is definitely in the tradition of »train« recordings going back to Count Basie, Ellington, and the train-whistle guitar blues of the early part of the century. Built on an odd 20-bar chorus and played as a medium-slow tempo, rhythmically and melodically it captures the motion of the old steam engines steadily chugging down the railroad line. Monk only made one other recording of »Locomotive« … twelve years later (Columbia CL2651)
Manganese (see We See)
Manhattan Moods (see Ruby, My Dear)
A Merrier Christmas
The only evidence of Monk playing this song is from a private recording made at the home of Baroness Nica de Koenigswarter around December of 1972. It is also the only recording of Monk singing.
Misterioso (sometimes spelled Mysterioso)
One of Monk's most famous blues compositions, it was first recorded on July 2, 1948 (Blue Note 1510). The melody is distinctive in that it's built on even eighth notes of ascending and descending parallel sixths. The most famous recording of »Misterioso« was made by Sonny Rollins and includes both Monk and pianist Horace Silver taking turns at the keyboard! Rollins's solo has been hailed by critics as a masterpiece. — Although »Misterioso« is not thought to be a very singable melody, it is so musical, so perfectly balanced that it has inspired several vocal versions and at least three different sets of lyrics: Claude Nougaro (retitled »Autour de Minuit«), Judy Niemack (retitled »Crazy Song to Sing«), Teri Roiger (retitled »Listen to your Soul«), Andre Minvielle (retitled »Ounba's«), as well as a children's book based whose poetic story is told to the melody and rhythm of »Misterioso«. The latter is by Chris Raschka and is titled »Mysterious Thelonious.«
Monk's Dream
First recorded on October 15, 1952 (Prestige 850), like »Bye-ya«, this is another strongly Caribbean »flavored« composition. — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and called it »Man, that was a Dream,« as did Soesja Citroen, who gave it the title »Sure it Can Be Done.«
Monk's Mood
One of Monk's early ballads, he gave it several different titles before settling on »Monk's Mood,« (i.e., »That's the Way I Feel Now«, »Feeling that Way Now«, »Why Do You Evade the Facts«, and »Be Merrier Sarah«). He had conceived of the song with lyrics. Monk first recorded »Monk's Mood« on November 21, 1947 (Blue Note 1565) — Lyrics were added by Soesja Citroen and recorded under the title, »Underneath This Cover«.
Monk's Point
Recorded only twice, once as a solo piano piece (November 2, 1964 [Columbia CL2349]) and again with Oliver Nelson's Orchestra (November 19, 1968 [Columbia CS9806]), it is a fairly straight forward twelve-bar blues in Bb full of Monk's signature »minor seconds« in the melody.
North of the Sunset
Recorded only once on October 31, 1964, it is a twelve-bar blues whose melody is very close to Monk's Point. It was also written in Bb.
First recorded on September 22, 1954, in a trio setting with Percy Heath (bass) and Art Blakey (drums), »Nutty« was among Monk's more popular tunes. Perhaps the most famous recording of it is with John Coltrane, July 1957 (Jazzland JLP[9]46). A few writers have strangely tried to link the title to Monk's alleged state of mind (!), but any such claims betrays an ignorance of the »hip« lingo of the day. In the 1940s and 50s (and even later), »nutty« commonly meant »excellent« or »coolå-like »insane,« »mad,« and »crazy.«
Off Minor (aka What Now)
Was actually first recorded in January of 1947, but not by Monk. Bud Powell was the first to put »Off Minor« on wax when he was with Cootie Williams's Orchestra. Monk first recorded it on October 24, 1947 (Blue Note ). Also, Dizzy Gillespie's big band had intended on using it in their book. It stands among Monk's more frequently recorded tunes. It is so named probably because it is written in G minor but never resolves on the tonic.
Oska T
First recorded on December 30, 1963, during Monk's famous Town Hall concert (Columbia ), there are many different stories in circulation explaining this title. The most common is that its Monk's impersonation of a bourgeois Englishman saying »ask for tea.«
First released recording was made on October 9, 1956 (Riverside RLP12-226). The song was written for the Baroness Pannonica de Koenigswarter, whom Monk had met in Paris in June of 1954. This first recorded version of »Pannonica« is significant in that Monk plays both piano and celeste. — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and retitled it »Little Butterfly.«
Played Twice
First recorded on June 1, 1959 (Riverside RLP12-305), the title refers to the structure of the song itself. It is a rhythmically complex, sixteen-bar AABC theme based on a series of repeated phrases or »echoes« that fall in different places in the meter. And like many Monk tunes, it begins in one key ( C ) and ends on another (D).
Playhouse (see Introspection)
Portrait of an Eremite (see Reflections)
Raise Four
Only recorded once, on Valentines Day, 1968 (Columbia CS9632), Monk probably wrote this in the studio. Reminiscent of »North of the Sunset« and Monk's »Point«, »Raise Four« is a basic twelve-bar blues but built on Monk's signature harmonies-the augmented fourth, also known as the »flatted fifth« or the tritone. It is the interval that divides the diatonic scale in half and tends to be the most dissonant and unstable. If anything, this song is a paean to the augmented fourth-hence the title.
First recorded on December 18, 1952 (Prestige LP 7027), it was not issued until 1956. Although it is often thought of as a ballad, Monk originally played it at medium tempo. Even his solo version of »Reflections,« recorded on Paris in 1954 (Vogue), was delivered just slightly slower than his Prestige trio version. But when he recorded it with Sonny Rollins in 1957 (Blue Note 1558) – perhaps the best known version – he turned it into a lovely ballad. The dynamic interplay between Monk and Rollins on this recording has been commented upon and studied by critics for decades. According to discographer Chris Sheridan, the alternative title of Portrait of an Eremite was given by French producer André Francis because he wasn't given the proper title. Eremite or ermite, in French, means hermit. — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and retitled it »Looking Back«. It has since been recorded by several vocalists.
One of Monk's most recorded and performed songs, he doesn't actually put it on wax under this title until May 15, 1957, at a recording session led by drummer Art Blakey (Atlantic 1278). Monk certainly made the melody his own, but the truth is that the »A« section of Rhythm-a-ning can be heard as early as 1936, on Mary Lou Williams's arrangement of »Walking and Swinging« twenty-six bars into the second chorus. The same melodic line was claimed by guitarist Charlie Christian (with whom Monk played at Minton's Playhouse) as »Pagin' Doctor Christian« or »Meet Dr. Christian«, by Al Haig as »Opus Caprice,« and by Sonny Stitt as »Symphony Hall Swing.« Indeed, on one recording from Minton's in 1941, Monk is identified as the pianist on a version of the song listed as »Meet Dr. Christian.« But in the end, Monk would eventually seize ownership of the tune and make it distinctively his own. The title, of course, references the fact that it is based on the chord changes to Gershwin's »I Got Rhythm,« popularly known in the bebop world as »rhythm changes.« — Jon Hendricks added lyrics and retitled it »Listen to Monk«. And again, several vocalists recorded it.
Round Lights
Recorded once on October 21, 1959, in San Francisco (Riverside RLP12-312), »Round Lights« is a slow, twelve-bar blues for solo piano.
'Round Midnight (aka 'Round About Midnight and Grand Finale)
Certainly the most recorded Thelonious Monk song of all time, Monk was not the first to record it. Cootie Williams's Orchestra recorded it in 1944 and used it as their theme song. He also took co-composer credit for »"Round Midnight« despite not having contributed anything to the score. Bernie Hanighen added lyrics and suddenly Monk was forced to share composer credit (and royalties) with two other people. In 1946, Dizzy Gillespie added his famous introduction and cadenza for his big band arrangement, which proved so popular that Monk added it (albeit an altered version) to his own performance of »Round Midnight.« It is now a standard part of the song. Monk first recorded it as a leader on November 21, 1947 (Blue Note 543). — Although Hanighen's lyrics have been sung by many vocalists over the years, Robert Craft added a new set of lyrics and recorded it as »The Night That Monk Returned To Heaven.«
Ruby, My Dear (aka Manhattan Moods)
A beautiful ballad and one of Monk's best known compositions, it was written originally for his then girlfriend, Ruby Richardson. Monk was probably still a teenager when he composed »Ruby, My Dear.« — Both Sally Swisher and Mike Ferro have added lyrics and retitled the song »Dear Ruby« and »It's Over Now«, respectively.
San Francisco Holiday (aka Worry Later)
First recorded on April 28, 1960, at the Blackhawk in San Francisco (Riverside RLP12-323), Monk had given it the title »Worry Later« initially as a response to Orrin Keepnews's question as to what to call it. Eventually, he settled on »San Francisco Holiday« to the fact that his West Coast gig proved to be a kind of family vacation.
Shuffle Boil
First recorded with the Gigi Gryce quartet on October 15, 1955 (Signal S1201), the song was then resurrected in 1964 and, for about a year, became part of the band's repertoire. With it's wide intervallic leaps, »Shuffle Boil« was particularly treacherous for tenor saxophonists since the highest notes are outside of the horn's range. Some sources suggest that Monk taught Charlie Rouse how to achieve these notes through false fingering.
Recorded only once (two takes), at the Blue Note session of May 30, 1952, but it was not released until many years later, when Blue Note decided to issue Monk's complete recordings. The title seemed temporary; it referred to the sixteen bar AABA structure of the song, but that is what Monk wrote on the sheet music. A complex, angular melody based on chord changes similar to those of Sonny Rollins's »Doxy,« it proved a formidable challenge for great musicians such as Kenny Dorham, Lou Donaldson, and Lucky Thompson.
Named after Nellie's sister, this song was ecorded only once (three takes), on May 30, 1952 (Blue Note 1602, 1511). It is a rare example of an uptempo Monk composition. The A section is particularly difficult, which may explain why the horns only play the entire melody on the out chorus and not at the beginning. Whatever the case, it is interesting to note that Monk never returned to these more boppish tunes such as »Skippy, Sixteen and Humph.«
Something in Blue
Recorded in London on November 15, 1971 (Black Lion BLP 30119), another classic, slow, solo blues played in Monk's unorthodox stride piano style.
Straight, No Chaser
Recorded July 23, 1951 (Blue Note 1589, 1511), it is only the second blues Monk recorded-Misterioso being the first. Like Misterioso, Straight, No Chaser is not like other blues in that the melody breaks with the typical four-bar phrasing and extends beyond the bar line. It is also the only blues he recorded in F (all others, including a few versions of "Straight No Chaser," are in Bb). It has become a true standard in jazz repertoire. — Sally Swisher added lyrics and recorded it under the title »Get it Straight«.
Stuffy Turkey
First recorded on January 30, 1964 (Columbia CL2184), this Monk original is frequently confused with Coleman Hawkins's and Sir Charles Thompson's Stuffy. Although both songs are based on »rhythm changes,« the melodies are quite different. Bud Powell also acknowledges Monk's authorship of Stuffy Turkey in a home recording of it in Paris in February of 1964, just two weeks after Monk took it into the studio for Columbia records. These home recordings, a tribute to Monk's music, were made around the time of Monk's European tour.
First recorded on March 9, 1964 (Columbia CL2291), Teo was written for Monk's producer at the time, Teo Macero. Based on Eddie Durham's »Topsy« – a favorite back in the days of Minton's Playhouse recast as Swing to Bop-it should not be confused with Miles Davis's Spanish – tinged Teo, which he wrote for Macero in 1961. Macero also produced Miles at Columbia records.
First recorded on October 15, 1947 (Blue Note 542), it is a brilliant example of Monk's use of ostinato (a short phrase repeated throughout a composition). Based on the reiteration of a single note (Bb) played over descending chord progressions, the song has an unusual 36-bar AABA structure: the second and last »A« sections are 10 measures long rather than the more traditional eight measures. Thelonious is widely regarded as one of Monk's classic compositions.
Think of One
First recorded on November 13, 1953 (the infamous »Friday the Thirteenth« session) and released on Prestige (PRLP 166), Think of One shares many features with Thelonious-notably, Monk's use of ostinato. It is based on one note repeated over a stoptime rhythm in the A section, which releases to a swinging bridge. Think of One has not been recorded many times, nor have many artists explored this part of Monk's repertoire. — Fleurine Verlopp added lyrics and retitled it »When I Think of One.«
Trinkle Tinkle
First recorded in a trio setting on December 18, 1952 (Prestige 838), the best known version of Trinkle Tinkle was made with John Coltrane in July of 1957 (Jazzland JLP[9]46). Like Work and Four in One, it has an extremely difficult melody for a horn player (or for any instrumentalist, for that matter), replete with sixteenth note runs and very angular phrasing. The Monk/Coltrane version is considered by many critics to be among the essential jazz recordings of all times. There are mixed stories behind the title; producer Ira Gitler believes he might have misunderstood Monk who may have said »Twinkle, Twinkle« instead of what he heard. On the other hand, all the great stride pianists with whom Monk identified called themselves »ticklers,« so it might have been a playful corruption of that word. Either way, Monk continued to use »Trinkle Tinkle« long after the 1952 recording.
Two Timer (aka Five Will Get You Ten)
Monk himself never recorded this composition, which he apparently wrote in the late 1950s. Pianist Sonny Clark, who turned to Monk a few times when his heroin addition left him broke and virtually homeless, somehow got a hold of the music. Either Monk gave him the song (along with money) to help him get by, or Clark »found« it in Monk's house. Whatever happened, Clark ended up taking composer's credit and recorded it in a session led by alto saxophonist Jackie McLean in October 1961 as »Five will Get You Ten«. The first to record »Two Timer« under its original title was T. S. Monk, who had discovered the original manuscript among his father's papers. His version appears on »Monk on Monk« (N2KE - 10017)
Ugly Beauty
The first known recording of Ugly Beauty took place on November 14, 1967, for a taped television broadcast. Exactly one month later, Monk's quartet made their only studio recording of this song (Columbia CS9632). Ugly Beauty is significant in that it is Monk's only composed waltz; he arranged a wonderful version of Benny Davis and Joe Burke's »Carolina Moon« in 6/4 time for Blue Note in 1952, but that was the only recorded evidence we have of Monk exploring waltz time. — Mike Ferro added lyrics and recorded it as »Still We Dream.«
Well You Needn't
First recorded for Blue Note (549) on October 24, 1947, it is one of Monk's most recorded and most popular tunes, and a very good example of Monk's penchant for chromatic harmonic motion.
We See (aka Manganese)
First recorded on May 11, 1954 (Prestige PRLP 180), the bouncy, medium tempo »We See« has a »happy« melody - the A section is singable. It was mistitled Manganese when Monk recorded it in France in 1954. His produced, Andre Francis, came up with the title as a French-speaking pun on »Monk at Ease.« And, of course, it refers to the mineral.
Who Knows
Yet another Blue Note-era tune recorded once and disbanded, Who Knows required eight takes when it was recorded on October 21, 1947 session (Blue Note 1565, BNJ61011). Trumpeter George »Flip« Taitt and alto saxophonist Sahib Shihab had a difficult time negotiating the melody, especially at a fast tempo.
Only recorded once, in a trio setting on September 22, 1954 (Prestige PRLP 189), »Work« is a dissonant, difficult, wild melodic ride that artists have been willing to take. The title speaks for itself. Besides Monk's version of Work, for which he alone is responsible for stating the melody, one of the few musicians to take up the challenge was soprano saxophonist Steve Lacy, who recorded it on his debut album (Prestige 7125) in November of 1957.

Artist and teacher Bruce Ingram presents a two-part exhibition 'Duets'. Bruce has taken inspiration from the plants and foliage in the surrounding gardens of the house, gathering and fusing real and live elements alongside traditional sculptural materials and found objects. Bruce is interested in the Japanese form of flower arrangement 'Ikebana' his artwork extends the play between nature and object, composition and form.
Week beginning 11th June, Bruce has invited a group of year 12 art students from local schools to work inside and outside of the house, students will further deconstruct the works and experiment with making their own sculptural outcomes with similar materials. The outcome will form the second part of the exhibition and will be shown at a preview event on Wednesday 13th June.
The project 'Duets' is an exploration of opposites, pairings and partnerships. Contrasts are explored through the use of the natural alongside the manmade. The heavy paired with the ephemeral. The element of creative play is further addressed through Bruce's collaboration with young people in reconfiguring his own work, breaking down the traditional notion of the teacher and student relationship.

Hey, I like these photographs!
Why thank you! :-)
Along with health and fitness, photography is my other big passion. Almost all of the photographs on this site are taken from my collection. (The exceptions being a few of the photographs of me - like the one to the left!)
In what I believe the cool kids are calling a "portfolio career" these days. I also do partake in some photography work, primarily natural or "lifestyle" portraiture, and weddings.
Taking naturalistic portraits I've often worked with yoga teachers, or other fitness professionals, taking photos of them as they go about their daily activities. Capturing the relaxed essence of a person rather than a posed portrait.
You can see my portfolio here.
You might also be interested in the article I wrote on taking photographs in challenging sporting conditions like a dojo.
With weddings, I specialise in small intimate weddings, sometimes second weddings, sometimes weddings later in life, and sometimes just weddings of people who want to remember their special day without it costing the earth for a diamond encrusted white leather album.
For more information on that please see my wedding photography website here.

If your personal computer is acting weird—displaying pop-ups from applications you've in no way heard of, showing your desktop icons running away from your laptop mouse, or suddenly operating terribly slow—your laptop may be infected.

After up on a time photobooths could be found in amusement parks, arcades, train stations, and on main street retailers around the world.
What's worse is that this dilemma can even happen for no cause at all, at any time, as if some invisible force messed with it.
