a feeling of control over her destiny…ĮVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… how to fall in love without losing herself.ĮVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship….ĮVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…. eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal, that will make her guests feel honored…Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE. a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family….Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …. one friend who always makes her laugh… and one who lets her cry…Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …. a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra…Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …. a youth she’s content to leave behind….Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE … a past juicy enough that she’s looking forward to retelling it in her old age….Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …. something perfect to wear if the employer, or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour…Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE. So, here it is on the blog now… “Letter to My Daughter” by Maya Angelou.Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE … enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own, even if she never wants to or needs to…Ī WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …. This poem has been circulating the web for a while and it is always a good reminder to myself about our strengths as women and how we need/can take care of ourselves.

An inexperienced kid pretending to be a professional. So, I was fumbling around trying to develop some sort of competency at marketing and public relations. And I just couldn’t imagine myself doing any of those things. I thought the only obvious venues for exploiting that particular talent would be customs agent or airport security or something like that. But, how do you build a career around intuition? So…what skill set was I supposed to pursue when nothing seemed to be rising to the forefront? The only talent I had, if you could call it that, was this weird sort of intuition. Near as I could tell, I had no natural talent. Of course, that was one dilemma I’d never have to deal with. Here in Australia, the Inside Indonesia magazine is planning a special issue around Pramoedya.

The acclaimed author and democracy campaigner had died that morning after suffering a week or more of declining health. They sang the Internationale and they sang that most moving of all songs that grew up during the struggle against the 1966-98 Suharto military dictatorship: Darah joang ("Blood of the struggle"). But they rallied their spirits to also sing songs of struggle to farewell the man who they had just laid to rest: Pramoedya Ananta Toer. Scores of activists and young writers, as well as family members, were at the Karet Bivak cemetery in central Jakarta on April 30. This strikes me as a digital version of Jack Vance's analog strakh. At least there was no mandatory Whuffie check on the monorail platform, but the other people on the car were none too friendly to me, and no one offered me an inch more personal space than was necessary. I had the short end of the Whuffie stick. It emitted a soft, unsatisfied _bzzz_ and lit up, "Please see the front desk." My room had been reassigned, too. With a sinking feeling, I trudged up to my room and swiped my key through the lock. A quick check with the handheld revealed the worst: my Whuffie was low enough that someone had just gotten inside and driven away, realizing that they could make more popular use of it than I could. and Blackstone Publishing Recorded Books (Publisher) 392 ratings See all formats and editions Kindle Edition £5.29 Read with Our Free App Hardcover £12.84 6 Used from £12.84 4 New from £43.48 Paperback £7.82 9 Used from £0.

From their observations, they concluded that chromosomal changes were driving cancer. The observation that cancer cells proliferate at an abnormal rate compared to normal cells was made by multiple scientists including Dr. The anecdotes about his patients serve as a reminder of the struggles of treating cancer as we shift into a discussion of the research that finally led scientists to understand the molecular mechanisms of cancer. We also get an update on his leukemia patient Carla, who is now in remission and through the worst of her treatments.

Harmony is the most sophisticated aspect of music where rhythm and melody evolved naturally, Copland states that harmony was the result of intellectual effort, and only emerged in the 9th century. Next Copland talks about harmony and tone color. He states that its power is mysterious and even composers are not certain how it works, but since people can generally agree on what makes a good melody there must be a standard we have not yet discovered or codified. In this fascinating analysis of how to listen to both contemporary and classical music analytically, eminent American composer Aaron Copland offers. Copland explores melody next, asserting it is the next most important aspect of music, and that we experience it as emotion. Rhythm is, in Copland’s estimation, just as important as melody. He notes it has a hypnotic effect, advising that listeners should not resist this effect and should relax into it and let the rhythm do its work.
