Regarding the Lydian mode and nostalgia, I feel the nostalgia too but at the same time I consider the possibility that I might be biased given my age, etc. So I would really need to ask another person - someone in their 30's or something. I really don't know how they perceive it. Or someone from another culture. Because nostalgia is a complex phenomenon and its triggered by one's prior history with similar sights, sounds, scents, etc. In other words, if one has no prior history hearing the Lydian mode, I guess it doesn't make sense to me that it would trigger nostalgia when they hear it today. But I could be wrong. If I am, I'd sure like to know what the mechanism is thats going on in the brain. But I will say this - again, there is that sharped fourth in the Lydian mode that begs for resolution to the fifth. Its like a yearning. The ear yearns for resolution like maybe it yearns to resolve a minor third into a major third. Is that "yearning" similar to a yearning for ones childhood? Oh God - see what complex creatures we are! Anyway, I think that you can find this discussed with reference to other modes as well, and I do know that each one is associated with a unique set of emotional qualities. Its also true for different keys.
As for your other point, I flashed back to Bartok and the French composers. I can't describe the way that that music makes me feel. We are all connected to each other in ways we can't even imagine. But that music opens up channels and memories that are mostly buried now. So all I can say is our brain connects music with all of our other sensory experiences meaning that it can trigger sights, smells, emotions, etc. I mean, I am not French nor have I ever lived in France, but French classical music throughout the 20th century influenced so many and affected them so much that hearing it triggers stuff in me that I can't even describe. Its like triggering other's experiences which maybe I absorbed vicariously through TV and film?

^I would recommend Daniel J. Levitin's book This Is Your Brain On Music, to you, it won't answer all your questions but it goes into the question of how music affects the human mind.
In blood, he's writing the lyrics of a brand new tune.

Got another hit - a new band I like (Female vocalist and interesting harmonies). Its Elfonia. On the album Elfonia, the first track is really nice with some shifting harmonies that keep you guessing. The third track "aura" introduces some even more exotic harmonic shifts. Its kind of brooding and metal oriented. But what's intriguing me here though the most is that compared to most bands, these guys mix it up harmonically from one song to the next where you don't know what to expect. In other words, they're not just using one language harmonically. Good stuff and singing in Spanish too. Far from Norway and Sweden where I've come to expect more adventurous harmonies.

Someone say Lydian? Go to 1:50 on the video.
I agree with how awesome Lydian is, but my personal favourite mode is the Dorian. Not quite sad or happy, just chill.
And since we're discussing music theory, I think suspended chords work well with spacey music. If you play using mainly suspended chords, you can't be sure whether they want to resolve into happy or sad. It gives a sense of mystery and uncertainty which is fitting for space music.

yes, I hear you, but this song is filled with minor scales, and major scales,ethnic sounding scales, Lydian, complex interweeving of counter melodies, and harmonies,
a lots of Roger Hodgson penned songs have lots of chord shifts as well, Give A Little Bit have over 7 chord changes only in the intro,

Unfortunately my knowledge of music theory is non existent, but you couldnt have found a better band, I love White Willow. Which album have you heard, they're all quite different and worth checking out.

Just wondering what is your opinion of long tracks that comprise mostly of one pedal root?
Pink Floyd's UmmaGumma era does this a lot (Careful With That Axe Eugene for example), and this has been employed more recently by bands like Tool..

What about late Crimson? who else enjoys their use of whole tone and diminished tonalities? No other band gets as much milage out of modulating a half step!

Robert Wyatt's "Sea Song" is such a massive whole tone splendor in its instrumental parts. Robert Wyatt does magic stuff on the keyboards!
1:52 is where the whole-tone fun begins. The studio version - to those who don't know it - features a harmonically similar piano solo. And the elegic vocal part are such a perfect frame for the free-jazzy improvisations. Genius!
Dave Stewart built up on that stuff with his 1974 Drury Lane organ solo on the same track. He stays on the whole tone scale for quite a long time, and only moves to chromatic half-tone realms for some spectacular melodies.

That's why keyboards are almost always a good addition to a rock band. I like this topcic and the suggestions made, but I haven't analysed my own preferences along the same lines... I'll probably never get there, but I'll keep an eye on what goes on here ...

Spotify has Sacrament and Terminal Twilight. I think I faved tracks "Anamnesis", "nostalgia", and "Kansas Regrets". But I need to listen to more. Once again, scandinavian prog rules! (after the UK of course...)

my very first introduction to jazz fusion was "The Inner Mounting Flame" by Mahavishnu Orhcestra, specifically the opening track, "Meeting of the Spirits". I mentioned the first chord that sounds on that album (and that song) - I'm trying to hunt up the name of that chord, but like I said its the one that Jimi Hendrix introduced into rock with the Purple Haze album. Its a very familiar chord and it has a tritone in it (BTW - I can take this in as technical a direction as you want. On a scale of 1 to 10, my music theory is probably at about a 4 or 5, but I can handle more 'cause I have the internet to help me! If you post a word I don't know, I will look it up!!)
Anyway, the "Hendrix" chord is "C, E, B flat, E flat". Same famous chord that Blood Sweat and Tears opens up "Spinning Wheel" with two years after Hendrix recorded Purple Haze. The horns repeat it ten times.
But back to "Meeting of the Spirits" - I bring this up again because its also a Phygrian mode song. In that mode, the scale starts with a half step interval, the only major/minor scale that does that. McLaughlin plays a riff on the notes "F, F sharp, C, and E flat" and its off we go. Classical composer Anton Bruckner also uses this scale. Maybe its my second or third favorite after the Lydian mode scale.
But I need more prog using these modes!
Mclaughlin also liked the diminished scale, especially in "Birds of Fire". The notes in that scale are C, C sharp, D sharp, E, F sharp, G, A, and A sharp. It has eight notes, not the usual seven. You can play major triads using these notes and then add a base note that superimposes a contrasting key giving it a dissonant sound. On "resolution", John opens the song playing a B flat in the base and an A major triad in the mid register. Thats a dissonant combination but all those notes are in the diminished scale. Also, on the track "Sanctuary", that brooding, exotic sounding base line is from the diminished scale. I recall when I first heard that track I was so captivated by how exotic it sounded that I had to pick it out on the piano. And then I spent several months jamming to that scale, sometimes with a friend on guitar who was like "man, this is really out there!...:)" The opening notes in Sanctuary are E (base) then G, A flat and B flat (alternating), and F (top note).

The Simpsons theme uses exactly the same triad as West Side Story's Maria.

I'm basing what I'm saying a little on what I know about the overtone series (the pitches that sound along with the fundamental whenever you pluck a string, sing, etc). Anyway, the overtones closest to the fundamental create the most consonant chords when you play them together. Like C and G, for example. And then you continue to add notes. The fourth overtone with C as the fundamental is E. Put C and E together and you have a major triad. The minor triad in comparison is not so consonant to the ears/brain, and so that is why I suggested we associate sadness with the minor triad when it is not resolved to the major triad (like maybe the ear wants it to be). Anyway, I'm not disagreeing with anything you wrote, I just thought I'd add that to what I wrote earlier. Thats because you're talking I think about single notes when I'm talking about chords and how they sound together. But its all relative with chords too. I mean we were talking about the emotional impact of music, and single notes played by themselves don't have much impact as far as I know (other than to relax you or annoy you (sine wave. Arrrg!!)) depending on the quality of the sound :)). Its when you put them together using scales and chords that things start to happen in the brain.

The topic is a good one - when we get technical around here it is usually more in terms of time signature.
Even though I have been playing guitar for over 35 years, I have not learned much of the technical aspects of it, which is why I usually just jam in G. However, if you are looking for an interesting harmonic palette, try The Residents who seem to operate within a set of musical rules all their own. Or another one of John McLaughlin's projects, Shakti. Indian classical musical utilizes unique sets of scales for individual pieces. Given the existence of microtones in its theory, there is a lot of harmonic variance albeit in terms different from what we are used to in the West. Also, I have heard that Deep Purple often plays in difficult keys such as F minor sharp and what-not. And if you like key changes and classical music, try the symphonies of Charles Ives.
The world of sound is certainly capable of infinite variety and, were our sense developed, of infinite extensions. -- George Santayana, "The Sense of Beauty"

About this Quilt
Christmas Wreath Wall Hanging
Designed by Mary Jobe Mason
Finished Quilt Size
30″ x 30″
Planning, Cutting, and Marking
Mary Jobe Mason has designed an elegant Christmas wall hanging that is easy to make from quick-cut squares, triangles, and strips. As Mary says, "The trick to this pattern is in the placement of dark and light colors. The more shades of dark and light greens you have, the better the overall look."
To achieve the interesting contrasts in the quilt, lay out the triangles for the wreath blocks and corner blocks on a flat surface, a feltboard, or a design wall, if you have one. This allows you to plan exactly where each triangle goes for the best effect.
Triangles for the quilt are quarter-square triangles. Fabric is cut in squares, then cut diagonally from corner to corner in both directions like an "X". The resulting four triangles are then combined with other triangles and sewn back together to form new pieced squares.
Number of Blocks and Finished Size
Fabric Requirements
NOTE: If you wish to use scraps for the green and red pieces in the quilt, approximately 7/8 yd. of green scraps and 1/4 yd. of red scraps will be needed.
Number to Cut
Ivory print
*cut first
Piecing the Blocks
Step 1. Referring to Diagram I for placement of individual pieces, lay triangles and squares on a flat surface to construct the pattern shown.
Diagram I
Step 2. Sew together individual triangles into small pieced squares, as shown in Diagram II. Make 72 pieced squares for Wreath Block.
Diagram II
Step 3. Using Diagram I, piece together squares to make 10 rows. Beginning at top, sew rows together to complete Wreath Block.
Step 4. For Corner Block, make 4 pieced squares as shown in Diagram III, and join to make block. Make 4 Corner Blocks
Putting It All Together
Step 5. Sew a gold strip to each side of wreath block. Trim strips even with top and bottom of quilt. Sew a gold strip to top and bottom of block. Trim strips even with sides of quilt. (See Assembly Diagram).
Assembly Diagram
Step 6. Sew an ivory print strip to each side of quilt. Trim even with top and bottom of quilt. Sew a corner block to one end of each remaining ivory strip. Pin strips to top and bottom of quilt, marking placement of remaining corner blocks, allowing for 1/4″ seam allowance. Remove strips, trim to proper length, and attach remaining corner blocks. Sew pieced strips to top and bottom of quilt.
Quilting and Finishing
Step 7. Layer, baste and quilt. Hand or machine quilt a diagonal grid design over wreath, and quilt design in borders.

I'm taking a break from my "Emotional Clutter" post that I've been working on. Ahhh, nice to take a breather from that topic. My friend, L, pointed me to http://twitterfall.com as the best hashtag (#) reader out there. And well, she would know!
So, I've been reading the #ICAN2011 channel and want to share some of the tweets that I've seen that should make an impact on VBACtivists as we do our important work! (Since I'm pulling this content from a public channel, I am not asking permission to repost. I will remove tweets if the OP requests.)
@DeepSouthDoula: [Macones] Be patient and keep working on us (OBs). Things will get better but it will take time. #ICAN2011
This is encouraging to read. Other tweets indicate that consumers should be addressing hospital administrators. However, from personal experience I can tell you that our hospital's CEO said he can't make the OBs change. It's easy for folks to displace and deflect in this business.
@Preparing4Birth: VBAC candidacy – low vertical incision 98% are this type. 1 or 2 prior ces should have access. Birthweight not a predictor. #ICAN2011
I read another tweet that indicated he supports VBA2+C but that it takes the right patient with the right provider in the right hospital. I've also read that the steepest increase in rupture rates is between 1 (.5%) and 2 (1%) cesareans and then begins to level out.
@Unnecesarean: Macones: We've all focused so long on uterine rupture but need to also focus on the consequences of multiple cesareans #ICAN2011
@babydickey: We are underestimating the risks of multiple c-sections. #ICAN2011
A great site for weighing the risks of VBAC and repeat cesarean is Childbirth Connection. Also have a look at the NIH VBAC Consensus.
@ShannonMitchell: When vbac rates CAN be 60-80% Don't ask me to wait for ten years for a 20% rate #ican2011 #birthaction
I love me some Shannon. She's absolutely right, so we all need to get off of our duffs and DO SOMETHING! Or do MORE!!
@ Unnecesarean: Macones: If hospitals can't respond to emergencies, they probably don't have any business doing obstetrics. (attributed to Landon) #ICAN2011
This is a very important point and should be addressed any time a facility with a maternity ward imposes a VBAC ban. People who live in towns with VBAC bans in place should write letters to the paper, picket the hospital, and set up an on-line petition at the very least. The average family doesn't know that a facility that can't handle a VBAC is unsafe for childbirth.
@ShannonMitchell: From 30 to 32% is 40,000 cesareans #ican2011 #birthaction
Wow, 30-32% is not nearly as offensive as knowing that 40,000 more women were cut open . . . many (most?) unnecessarily! And other tweets indicate that the 40K cuts refer to the increase from 32-32.9% (our current national cesarean rate). If that's the case, how is that not perceived as a national crisis????
@tiffrobyn: Dr Macones: ECV, CVS testing, carry 1-2% risk, greater than vbac. #ICAN2011
Tests and procedures (including cesareans) that OBs may offer are sometimes riskier than what they refuse to do (attend VBAC). I will say that I've never been offered an amnio, ECV, or CVS even at my advanced maternal age. 😉
More later, I am certain . . .

Remember, the Democrats against voter ID laws and supporters of IRS harassment of "True the Vote" say none of this exists:
The top staffer for Florida Democratic Rep. Joe Garcia resigned this weekend after being implicated in a voting-fraud scheme. Chief of Staff Jeffrey Garcia resigned Friday after taking responsibility for the plot and being asked by the congressman for his resignation.
Authorities are investigating a sophisticated scheme to manipulate last year's primary elections by submitting hundreds of fraudulent absentee-ballot requests.
Isn't it funny that nearly every incident involves one party in particular?

The University of North Florida's School of Nursing and the University of North Florida Student Nurses' Association are among 10 nursing programs across the country to receive Stellar School Chapter Recognition by the National Student Nurses' Association (NSNA). UNF is the first and only Florida nursing program to receive this national recognition.
UNF nursing students were recently recognized during the opening ceremonies of the 59th Annual NSNA Convention in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Stellar School Chapter Recognition is awarded to schools that demonstrate and exemplify leadership as well as professionalism among nursing students and is awarded for five years.
"This is such a great testament to the dedication of students and faculty in the School of Nursing," said Dr. Li Loriz, director of the School of Nursing at UNF. "We continue to be so proud of all of their ongoing accomplishments."
Fourteen UNF nursing students, all partially supported by the Charles and Doris Nevaiser Endowed Nursing Scholarship, were represented at the national convention, including Harris Zeliff, president of the UNF SNA, and UNF assistant nursing professor Dr. Judy Comeaux. UNF had the highest number of posters selected for presentation at the convention. Presentation of posters is a scholarly way for students to present the outcomes of their projects.
The application process for Stellar School Chapter Recognition is elaborate and showcased the many accomplishments of the UNF SNA during the past five years, including the Platinum School Community Award in 2007 for community education programs. Between 2000 and 2009, nursing students at the University completed 337 community projects.
Nursing students are assigned to a home base at the beginning of the nursing program and remain in that same assigned home base throughout their nursing school experience. The goal is to provide education and learning resources regarding relevant health issues tailored to the specific needs of each individual population.
One of the projects headed up by UNF nursing students include the Panda Project, a partnership with Wolfson Children's Hospital. The project entails using innovative methods to decrease fear, anxiety and pain in children who undergo painful procedures. UNF SNA raised funds to purchase toys, books and games to fill a "Panda Box" for pediatric patients and continues to keep supplies in the boxes replenished as they are depleted by the children.
Additionally, the UNF SNA chapter has a strong record of leadership at both the national and state levels. In recent years, students from the chapter have held a number of statewide offices, including president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer to name a few.
The School of Nursing at the Brooks College of Health offers a wide variety of programs at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The nursing program is fully accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education and approved by the Florida Board of Nursing.
Brooks College of Health offers a full complement of degree programs and specialized certifications in community and public health, rehabilitation counseling, nutrition, health administration, nursing and nurse anesthesia, exercise physiology, athletic training and physical therapy.

How can I tell if my baby is constipated?When it comes to a baby's bowel movements, there is often no normal number or schedule. Similar to adults, babies' bowel movement patterns vary. Poo can also change in texture from day to day.
If you're concerned that your baby may be constipated, look out for these signs:
- crying and discomfort, irritability or pain before doing a poo
- dry, hard, pellet-like poo that she has trouble passing
- fewer than three bowel movements a week
- foul-smelling wind and poo
- loss of appetite
- a hard belly
As odd as it sounds, very liquid poo can be also be sign of constipation. Liquid poo can slip past the blockage of hard poo in the lower intestine. If you see this, don't assume it's diarrhoea. It may be evidence of constipation (CKS 2010, NHS 2011).
What causes constipation?There are several possible reasons why your baby may be constipated:
- Formula milk. Formula feeding your baby is more prone to constipation because formula can be harder to digest than breastmilk, causing poo to be firm and bulky. A breastfed baby is unlikely to get constipated. Breastmilk produces poo that is almost always soft, even if a baby hasn't done a poo for a few days (NHS 2012a).
- Introducing solids. Babies often become constipated when they start solids, as their bodies learn how to manage new foods. Low-fibre foods and not enough fluids also contribute to constipation (NHS 2012b).
- Dehydration. Your baby may be refusing milk because she's teething, has thrush, a throat infection, a cold, or an ear infection. Or your older baby may not be drinking enough milk or water with her solid foods. Whatever the reason, if your baby isn't getting enough fluids, she may become dehydrated. This can cause dry, hard poo that is difficult to pass.
- A medical condition or illness. Occasionally, constipation can be a symptom of a food allergy, food poisoning (such as botulism), or a problem with the way the body absorbs food, known as a metabolic disorder.
Very rarely, constipation in babies can be caused by congenital conditions. These can include a disease where the large intestine doesn't function properly (Hirschsprung's disease), a condition where the anus and rectum have not formed properly (anorectal malformation), spina bifida and cystic fibrosis (CKS 2010, NICE 2010).
How can I treat constipation?Check with your doctor or child health nurse before trying anything to ease your baby's discomfort. You may be asked to bring her in to be examined. Here are some home treatments that your doctor may suggest:
- Gently move your baby's legs in a bicycling motion to help move the hard poo along her intestine (NHS 2012b).
- If your baby is formula-fed, give her extra water in between feeds, but don't dilute the formula (CKS 2010). Make sure that you are using the recommended amount of milk powder when making up a bottle. Too much powder can dehydrate your baby, causing constipation (NHS 2012a). Your doctor may also recommend trying a different brand of formula.
- If your baby has started solids, give her plenty of water or diluted fruit juice (CKS 2010, NHS 2012b). Plenty of fibre in your older baby's diet could also help (Loening-Baucke et al 2004). Pureed or chopped apples, apricots, blueberries, grapes, pears, plums, prunes, raspberries and strawberries are all high in fibre. You could also add a small amount of high-fibre cereal to your baby's usual breakfast cereal (CKS 2010).
If these home treatments haven't worked, or if your baby's constipation is severe, your doctor may suggest a laxative, probably lactulose (CKS 2010, Draper 2009).
Try not to worry too much if your baby becomes constipated. It's likely to happen now and then, especially if she's formula-fed or eating solids. With your attention, necessary treatment, and time, she'll soon establish easier, regular bowel movements again.
Take a look at our baby poo photo gallery for a visual guide to what's normal and what's not!

Year in Review: High court rules against gene patents
Justices open way for choices in DNA testing
A Supreme Court decision in June to strike down a company's patent on genes linked to breast cancer could have far-reaching consequences for biotechnology and medical research.
In a rare unanimous decision, the justices ruled that naturally occurring genes may not be patented. That ruling came in a case in which many scientists, activist groups and others sued Myriad Genetics. That company had previously patented the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. When mutated, those genes can greatly increase the risk of breast cancer.
Myriad's patent gave that company the exclusive right to conduct tests based on those two genes. The court's decision means that Myriad's patent


text: This is the first year in 14 years that I was not able to get out and go strawberry picking. Although disappointing, the selection at the downtown Oshkosh Saturday Farmers Market has been outstanding. Last weekend I had an abundance of strawberries, so I whipped up some strawberry jalapeno salsa for our wine and cheese extravaganza that we have each weekend. I can't really tell you how much of anything I added, as I just threw it together, taste tested and added a little more of this and that, so its kind of guess. So, that being said, you can make as spicy as you want to leave out any ingredients that don't fit your tastes. As much as I enjoyed this, I think it would be fun to add a little peach, or mango or even pineapple. Mmm, that makes me think that maybe this weekend, I will bring back my pineapple salsa. Strawberry Salsa - 2 cups Strawberries (around 25 chopped), 1/4 C red onion diced, a small bunch of cilantro, chopped, 1 jalapeno, without seeds, chopped, TB lime juice, maybe a little more, black pepper, and a TB sugar. Add all ingredients together and serve right away. The next day, it was pretty mushy, so don't make too far in advance.

Welcome to the June Carnival of Natural Parenting: Outdoor fun
This post was written for inclusion in the monthly Carnival of Natural Parenting hosted by Hobo Mama and Code Name: Mama. This month our participants have shared their stories and tips for playing outside with kids. Please read to the end to find a list of links to the other carnival participants.
I fell out of the Carnival of Natural Parenting while I was extremely busy doing a few other things with my bloggy time (like detailing my elimination diet) but it seemed time to jump back in to it.
This month's topic is "Outdoor Fun". I'll be honest: part of me felt a little dismayed about this topic. I'm not going to be some sort of fountain of information about fun outdoors activities. If I had my druthers, I'd be curled up on the couch, even on the sunniest of days.

Joshua Creek Heritage Art Centre
Offerings is a solo exhibition by Joshua Creek's resident artist, Louise Laroche. The Gallery dates will span the Christmas and New Year season.
Louise's work is evocative with roots in the ancient culture of 16th century Quebec. She draws inspiration from nature and her surroundings. "I like the interaction, the tension between juxtaposed fragments. These form multiple spaces within each collage. I like to think my work stimulates contemplation and awareness."
Louise is a graduate of Fine Art, Laval University and has spent the last 20 years searching for her own pathway of printmaking, guided by her passion for fragmentation.

Capstone Course FAQ
What's the difference between a Master's Project and the Comprehensive Assessment Project (CAP)?
The Master's Project entailed scholarly research about a topic related to the student's concentration. The project required that the student complete a five-chapter paper that included an introduction, review of the literature, methods, results, and conclusion/recommendations.
The CAP is a 7-10 page paper that concisely demonstrates that you have acquired all the knowledge and skills requisite for a master's degree in your concentration. It includes the identification of a critical issue related to your concentration; the development of a case scenario that illustrates the critical issue; a review of the literature that substantiates the critical issue and the best-practice approach to dealing with the issue; and a goals, objectives, and interventions section.
How do I choose a critical issue?
The critical issue should be selected in collaboration with your advisor who will help you to identify a viable issue. The critical issue should be related to your concentration, and should be a topic that would allow you to demonstrate your concentration-related skills such as ethical practice, assessment, prevention, intervention, and relapse prevention.
How long does it take to complete the CAP?
The CAP is designed to be completed in one semester. It requires graduate-level writing skills, mastery of HMS course content, mastery of library research, and mastery of APA formatting. If a student struggles in any of these areas, it is possible that additional time would be required to complete the CAP. Students are encouraged to use the Center for Teaching and Learning for support if needed
Who is on my CAP Committee?
The CAP committee includes your advisor, who serves as the chair of the committee, and the instructor of your CAP course, HMS 585.
What happens during the CAP Committee meeting?
You will meet with the chair of your committee and the instructor of HMS 585 to review your CAP. You will give an overview of the CAP, share what you learned by doing it, and discuss how you will use what you learned in your practice. You will respond to any questions the committee has regarding the CAP. During the meeting your CAP will be evaluated, and you will be notified whether or not you need to make any revisions, and whether or not you will receive credit.
I live in another state and cannot afford to travel to campus to attend the CAP meeting. What can I do?
The CAP meeting can be held in person, via the telephone, or via Skype. Students who live away from campus will be able to defend the CAP remotely.

Audi cleans up in this year's DTM
Hurrah! Audi seems to have won everything at the lightly bafflingly Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters, or DTM.
It is, effectively, touring car racing. Only there are just two manufacturer's competing - Audi and Mercedes (though next year BMW's joining in). And to make things more complicated, they're not all running the same car and only some teams have factory backing.
There are two titles to play for - teams' championship and drivers' championship. The latter was won by Martin Tomczyk, who was helming an 2008 Audi A4 for Audi Sport Team Phoenix (non-factory backed). The teams' championship was won by fellow factory-backed Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline, which was running a brace of five rather lovely 2008 A4 DTMs.
To celebrate, here are pictures of something less baffling - knee-weakening Audi DTM cars being driven by mentalists.
