Sydney, and other stuff - (USA)
Wow, a two-week hiatus. I don't think I've not-blogged for that long since I started in October 2005. For some reason this time of year, anything between August and November, always seems busier than usual. Spent a week and a half attending all-day Arts SA meetings and doing my real job at night before leaving for three days in Sydney last week for the launch of the Macquarie PEN Anthology of Australian Literature , thus: Thursday, June 30, 11 am : sample Adelaide Airport long-term car park.

Finding New Avenues for Making Classical Music: Pianist Jeffrey Biegel - (USA)
Pianist Jeffrey Biegel is young, ambitious, and brimming with enthusiasm. That alone would not make him automatically eligible for inclusion on the All Music Blog, however Jeffrey has an angle, multiple angles, in fact, on revitalizing the standard repertoire, cultivating new music, and utilizing new media to promote the cause of classical music in our time. Besides, Biegel has two — count ‘em, two — new classical releases this summer, all the more reason to lend him an ear — it should be well

Cambodia Made It Again into the International Media - (USA)
Posted on 10 August 2009The Mirror, Vol. 13, No. 624Cambodia made it again into the international media – together with Norway, it may be said.Norway is hardly known in Cambodia – a small country of only about 4.5 million people compared to Cambodia’s around 14 million. Few people may know that the Norwegian branch of the international group of Save-the-Children fund organizations – Redd Barna – has been co-operating with the Ministry of Education of Cambodia over the years.

Man up, there Mike! Life's not all that bad - remember, all those anger hormones are gonna do bad things for your mellow! From the seemingly "frothing at the fingertips" Mike Brunelle, the Executive Directory of the NH Democrat Party comes a Presser that seems just a tad heavy on the adjectives and WAY light on the thinness of his skin as he is complaining about the opposition to the Democrat attempts to completely nationalize our healthcare system. Or, may I say it, a much lesser capable

creative MySpace Music bios - (USA)
There's so much, arguably too much, music. You don't have time to listen to all the good music in any genre and sub-specialty that turns you on.

Here are some real examples for you to slavishly imitate or surpass: Retarded Muppit Farm Billy Sr. and Billy Jr., The boys in Retarded Muppit Farm (RMF), are both ordained ministers who met during a hang gliding day-camp in 2

Atheism in Proper Proportion - (USA)
My first attempt at meditation occurred when I was six years old and was a direct result of watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Oh, how I loved the Ninja Turtles. It was my favorite show. When I watched them slip into meditation, it didn’t seem like they were doing anything in defiance of Yahweh, a concern in our household. Most of the time, the turtles were just closing their eyes and thinking about pizza. So one day I decided to give it a shot. I crossed my legs Indian-style with my Ninja

Would a certain 20-something from West Beirut be at the beach party? Had the two men from Cairo arrived yet? Was the cute D.J. from Bardo, a gay bar here, going to be spinning?

King George - (USA)
Every city in the country, I suppose, has its own relationship with New York City — you know, much the same way that every college basketball team in the old ACC had a rivalry with North Carolina. The City is just omnipresent in American life. Everyone knows about Boston’s rivalry with New York and the friction between Philadelphia and New York and the long-distance relationship between Los Angeles and New York. Chicago calls itself “Second City” — and while technically this is because of the

[MP3] Sea Wolf: “Stanislaus” - (USA)
In anticipation of their forthcoming album, White Water, White Bloom (due September 22), Sea Wolf is offering up a new bonus track, available to the public, titled “Stanislaus.” If this song is any indication as to where the new record may be going, it sounds like we should be ready for a bigger, fuller tone from the Los Angeles trio. On “Stanislaus,” Sea Wolf has sort of honed their folk-pop to a more coherent, maybe even folksier (vocals wise) appeal. Honestly, I’m not sure yet if I’d be p

What If All Atheists Left America? - (USA)
What would happen if all atheists left America?* All fields of science would be less progressive and suffer from significant personnel shortages. This would include all the general and specialized sciences of:Chemistry, Astronomy, Earth sciences, Environmental sciences, Biology, Anthropology, Psychology, Philosophy, Health sciences and many others.* Not all atheists are scientists. Many of us are in the entertainment business, radio and performing arts, too. I’m quite sure that Bill Maher, Set

100 things meme - (USA)
Matthew Jarpe, whose blog I quite enjoy, posted this meme today. He says: In RADIO FREEFALL I used the word meme to describe a mind virus that forces a person to obsess over a single thought until he commits suicide. In retrospect I should have picked another word. Since I wrote the book that word has lost its mysterious obscurity and has been applied to gramatically incorrect cats, zombies, pirates, and lists like this one. Here, you take a list of 100 things that people do and highlight the
