Falésia Beach

Falésia Beach (Praia da Falésia, meaning Cliff Beach) is a beach in Albufeira, Algarve, southern Portugal. It has a cliff that begins in the Barranco das Belharucas Beach and extends to Vilamoura.

Description
The beach is part of a continuous stretch of sand almost 6 km in length. It is flanked by a line of high cliffs in deep tones ranging from reds to whitish, in contrasting colours with the green of the pine groves above. At the western end, the cliff is high but soft, composed of sand and clay, so the rain wears away grooves and gullies. To the east, the cliff is gradually losing height, while remaining deeply eroded. It is this erosion that keeps the beach sandy. As a result, small cones of sand form at the base of these cliffs, where typical dune plants such as sea daffodils, sea bindweed, spiny thrift, Cretan trefoil and sea holly have taken root. These species intermingle with the more monotonously-coloured vegetation typically found on cliffs, which here mostly consist of Mediterranean saltbush.

Access
Road access on tarmacked roads is via the Aldeia das Açoteias resort. There is parking at Açoteias, 300 m from the beach, and at the Alfamar resort, 250 m from the beach. The support infrastructure includes restaurants, WC and information facilities, as well as recreational facilities at Açoteias only. There are lifeguards on duty in the summer holiday season.

In Acoteias there are two camperhomes, each for 100 campers.

Discussion from en:Talk:Mince pie

Couple of suggestions, since you mentioned you're not finished:

 * How about using either metric or English measurements throughout, but not both?

 * This isn't analytical chemistry - how about rounding off numbers like "1814 g" to 1.8 kg (or even 2 kg)?

 * Please insert a space between a number and its unit.

Thanks! :-) -- Marj Tiefert 18:41 Aug 2, 2002 (PDT)

A couple of responces since I've finished:

 * The 'spoons are the random variable of good cooking and the metric system. Otherwise known as "Too much!", or "Too little."

 * The art of good desserts, MUST follow the strict standard of analytical chemistry. No comprimises will be allowed!

 * No.

Spot the sarcasm.=P

Shouldn't the meat free mince pies... the one which we all try to cook and eat at Christmas time...  be at the top of the page? Surely that's the recipe which people come to this page for. -- Harry Wood (talk) 19:27, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Boughton Hall Cricket Club Ground

Boughton Hall Cricket Club Ground is a cricket ground in Boughton, Cheshire. The ground is located in grounds which formerly belonged to Boughton Hall. The ground is located off Boughton Hall Avenue, with the Shropshire Union Canal to the north. The ground is used by Chester Boughton Hall Cricket Club.

History
The first recorded match held on the ground was in 1886, when Boughton Hall played Huyton. Cheshire first used the ground in 1910 when they played Northumberland in the Minor Counties Championship. Prior to and after World War I, Cheshire played a match annually at the ground, until World War II. Following the war Cheshire returned to the ground in 1951, however this would be their last match there until 1970. In 1972, the ground was selected as a home venue for Minor Counties North in the 1972 Benson & Hedges Cup, where the team played a single List A match against Lancashire. From 1970 to 1988, the ground held one Minor Counties Championship match annually.

Cheshire played their first List A match at the venue in the first round of the 1988 NatWest Trophy, which saw them record a famous victory against first-class opponents Northamptonshire. However, Cheshire lost their second round match held at Boughton Hall against Derbyshire. The following season, Cheshire played a further List A match there against Hampshire in the 1989 NatWest Trophy, which ended in defeat. Cheshire played their first MCCA Knockout Trophy match there in 1992 against Northumberland, with Minor Counties Championship cricket returning there in 1993 when Dorset visited the ground. List A cricket returned to the ground in the 1995 NatWest Trophy when Essex defeated Cheshire, while in the 1998 NatWest Trophy the same opponents visited, with Essex once again triumphing. The ground was used infrequently by Cheshire in minor counties during the 1990s.

Cheshire's first match there in the 21st century came against Lincolnshire in a List A match in the 2000 NatWest Trophy, which Lincolnshire won. The ground held its final List A match in first round of the 2002 Cheltenham & Gloucester Trophy when Cheshire played the Lancashire Cricket Board, with the match held in 2001 to avoid fixture congestion in 2002. Cheshire won by 8 wickets. Cheshire played a total of seven List A matches at the ground, winning two and losing five. Minor counties cricket returned in 2003, with Cheshire playing a single Minor Counties Championship match annually since then. Three MCCA Knockout Trophy matches have been played there since 2007, all with Devon as the opposition.

List A

 * Highest team total: 306/2 (60 overs) by Hampshire v Cheshire, 1989
 * Lowest team total: 92 (36.5 overs) by Cheshire v Essex, 1998
 * Highest individual innings: 159 by Chris Smith for Hampshire v Cheshire, 1989
 * Best bowling in an innings: 5/8 by Graham Gooch for Essex v Cheshire, 1995

Japanese Language/Roman Character Pronunciation Guide

How to Pronounce Japanese Words Written in Roma-ji (Roman Letters)
The Japanese alphabet is divided up into rows of syllables which end with one of five vowel sounds, with a few exceptions.

The order of the Japanese alphabet is almost like a grid with vowels forming columns and consonant forming rows.

The sounds in brackets you see above are the modified sounds of each syllable. In Japanese proper, these changes in sound would be denoted by the same character only with diacritic ("ten-ten") marks beside them. The sound that is produced is the voiced version of the original unvoiced character.

Vowels
Are pronounced as they would be in an ideal world.

 * A: sounds like "a" as in father
 * I: sounds like "ea" as it eat
 * U: sounds like "oo" in English food
 * E: sounds like "eh" for us Canadians, but others say "e" as in carpe diem
 * O: sounds like "ough" as in dough

Consonants
Should all be pronounced more or less as in English with four exceptions: G, F, R, N. G and F are not very important as their sound does not vary very noticibly between the two languages, but the G sound is made almost like "ng" depending on the age of the speaker and, in certain cases, dialect. Nowadays, it is beginning to sound more like our gutturatter g, but the older folks may still say "ng", which was also taught in many Japanese grammar classes. The F sound is spoken as if it were a combination of both H+F. Remember that it is part of the Ha-gyo (the line of sounds starting with H), so a similarity to H is only sensible.

R is trilled once and once only making it sound deceptively like a "D" to untrained listeners. It may also give off the effect of an "L" sound when sung by modern J-pop vocalists.

N is another sound that is not much different between us, but in Japan, I was told to close my mouth when saying N. It takes on more of a sound like "M," but is still recognizable, if not by sound, by place. There are times when N becomes an M as well, more on that later.

Permutations and Combinations
Japanese sounds are mathematically (as the section name implies) changed according to simple rules of pronunciation and grammar. First I will cover the change of N to M as discussed in the previous paragraph:

N-M: When an N appears before the consonant B, P or M in a word, it will be pronounced as M. When it appears before G or K, it will be pronounced as NG. This course will be giving the actual Japanese spellings of words and you will have to remember this for future reference.

Double letters: Pronounce any doubled letters as if there is a break between them. Thus Kata (form) is kah-tah, and Katta (bought) is Kat-tah. Pronounce both consonants. In vowels, this can extend the length of a vowel, such as in the word "-oki" (a place to put things) versus "ookii" (big). All vowels must be pronounced (which will shift the stress in the word) to make the word clear.

Combinations: This cannot be seen in Roma-ji, but is noticeable in Japanese lettering proper. Sometimes the letters Ya, Yu, and Yo are put with other letters containing the vowel "I." The Ya, Yu, and Yo are in a smaller form than the modified letter, and appear second in reading order. This melds the two together as one. Examples:

 * Ki (spirit) 	+yo	=Kyo (today)
 * Ni (2)		+yo	=Nyo (urine)
 * Shi (4)		+yu	=Shyu-or just shu (week)

Note also that words which combine the letters o+u in that order (such as Ohayou in the next section) are simply pronounced as if they were a long o sound. Other combined vowels will be pronounced with as much separation as possible. If it says ai, it means "ah-ee" not "ay."

The Ghostly "U"
"U" is sometimes silent at the end of words in Japanese. Most words that end in u are pronounced this way. Thus "Gozaimasu" will be pronounced "Gozaimass".

American Dog Breeders Association

The American Dog Breeders Association (ADBA) is an all-breed dog registry founded in 1909 by Guy McCord and Con Feeley. The registry is headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT in the U.S., but has multiple affiliate clubs located around the world. The registry began by promoting the John Colby strain of pit bull types. Over time, the focus changed to the registration and promotion of purebred American Pit Bull Terriers, a breed that few other breed registries have recognized because of its ancestral origins as a fighting dog in England and Ireland. The first official breed registry to recognize American Pit Bull Terriers was the United Kennel Club (UKC) in 1898 when it registered its first dog, "Bennett’s Ring", owned by UKC founder C. Z. Bennett. ADBA sponsors various conformation dog shows, weight pulling competitions, and Top Dog Athletic Events consisting of three canine competitions: treadmill race, wall climb and lure coursing. In 1976, ADBA began publishing a quarterly magazine titled The American Pit Bull Terrier Gazette.

History
The ADBA founded in 1909 by Guy McCord and Con Feeley, both of whom were breeders of American Pit Bull Terriers. They were also friends with John Pritchard Colby of Newberry, MA. who was a breeder of fighting pit bulls which became known as the Colby strain. In the early 1900s, Colby advertised as having "bred and sold more fighting dogs than any one man in America." In the beginning, ADBA considered the Colby strain as "the mainstay of the ADBA which prompted the boast of being the 'home' registration office of the Colby dogs." With the recognition of the American Pit Bull Terrier as a standard breed, the ADBA distanced itself from any association to dog fighting. Breeders with APBTs that were registered with the ADBA became persistent in their efforts to dispel the public's impression that the breed was used only for fighting purposes.

In 1951, the ADBA was managed by Frank Ferris and his wife Florence Colby, widow of John Colby. Activities of the ADBA were limited, but with an exclusive focus on the registration of American Pit Bull Terriers. In 1973, Ferris had his sights on retirement and sold the ADBA to Ralph Greenwood. A few years later, owners of registered dogs petitioned the ADBA to develop a breed standard for conformation dog shows, but they wanted one that was unique to the ADBA rather than copying the breed standards of the American Kennel Club (AKC) or UKC. In 1976, the ADBA formulated the APBT Heritage Conformation Standard on which ADBA sponsored conformation shows are judged; the goal being to maintain the "traits of intelligence, character, loyalty, and the athletic conformation that the breed was originally bred for hundreds of years ago." That same year, ADBA also began publishing a quarterly magazine The American Pit Bull Terrier Gazette which features a variety of topics ranging from dog nutrition, human interest stories, and show results.

ADBA registration
Beginning in early 2015, ADBA investigated and identified issues in the APBT Stud Book which resulted in the following corrections:
 * An ideal range of breed weight was added to the breed standard.
 * The American Staffordshire Terrier was confirmed as a separate breed; therefore, the American Staffordshire Terriers (Am Staffs) that were registered with AKC were double registered to include ADBA registration.
 * Single registrations for crossbreeds between the American Pit Bull Terrier and American Staffordshire Terrier were no longer accepted.
 * Prior to ADBA's 2013 acknowledgement of issues in their APBT Stud Book, they had accepted numerous UKC APBT registrations, and recognized the American Bully as a separate breed. On July 15, 2013, UKC accepted the American Bully breed and established the foundation process. Dogs that were previously registered in the APBT Studbook were removed from that registry.  Dogs that fit the American Bully breed type were registered as an American Bully. Exceptions included any dog with any condition or exaggeration that has been determined to be detrimental to the health, soundness and general welfare of the American Bully or any other breed.

The ADBA's breed standard for the American Pit Bull Terrier is the standard used in the UK for determining if a dog is of the prohibited "pit bull terrier type" under the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. In response, the ADBA's breed standard for the APBT includes a disclaimer forbidding its use in determining if a dog meets the definition of a prohibited or restricted dog for breed-specific legislation.

In 2009 the ADBA, along with the Endangered Dog Breeders Association, filed an amicus brief in the case of United States v. Stevens alleging 18 U.S.C. § 48 was too broad and violated the First Amendment.

Breeds
The ADBA is a club focused on preserving the American Pit Bull Terrier breed, and its conformation and sports events are mostly for this breed. Despite this, the club accepts to register all breeds recognized by the UKC and AKC, in addition to registering the new breed Working Pit Bulldog.

Breed specific laws
Within the meaning of section 1 of the Dangerous Dogs Act (1991), a type of dog had a broader meaning than a breed of dog; therefore, in order for a court in the United Kingdom (UK) to conclude that a type of dog was a pit bull terrier, the breed standard set forth by ADBA for American Pit Bull Terriers was used as the axiom for all pit bull types, even though a particular dog did not meet the exact standard. Other countries such as relied upon as the identification protocol of Pit Bull types in "collaboration with Staffordshire University and contributors in the UK, USA, Ireland and Australia."

Foundation of the school of Music and dance

Logo
Just wondering what the general consensus was about the banner logo that was over in the Wikibooks domain. My guess is that it hasn't because images were not included in the move. I'm wondering what the consensus is about the logo. Jechasteen 09:24, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep the logo at least for now. --Hd.G 20:04, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Use new logo. I like the logo.

Proposed Change to Courses
What would people think of combining the Musicology and History curricula into one? It seems like both musicology and history contain topics pertaining to the historical aspects of music. Jechasteen 09:30, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree, however, more simply, why don't we just delete history. Pianist 18:37, 29th August 2006

I disagree with Pianist - Histroy to me seems more bare facts, dates and events and such, and Musicology more cultural and meaningful. alikona 23:09, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, I disagree with Alisone. The study of music and cultures would be "Ethnomusicology." You can reference the wiktionary article here: (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnomusicology). Music History and Musicology are synonymous, as they are both the scholarly study of music and the history of music. I think that all history courses should be divided into two categories, Western and non-Western. In general, Western courses would fall under Musicology, and likewise the non-Western courses would fall under Ethnomusicology. This was the curriculum at the school where I received my undergrad, and the design was very intelligent and practical. Just a thought. :o)   --Richums 14:36, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

 * I don't know much about the subject, but I would also tend to see "musicology" as incorporating "history of music" - and a chronology of music could comprise a part of this. However, I find "ethnomusicology" a problematic term, as it is inherently "western"-centric, and I don't see how splitting up music into a dichotomous "western" and "non-western" is any more logical than any other split. How about simply having an organiser page, Topic:Musicology, that can split into the study of various musical genres/traditions by various criteria or levels of focus? Terms that are ambiguous, like ethnomusicology, could either be redirects to other more interdisciplinary pages, or have their own pages which would explore the term, why it exists, and why some think it is problematic. Thoughts? Cormaggio talk 14:54, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

 * I see your point on the split (Western and non-Western). I suppose for a global resource, that would not be the most effective way of doing it.  Sometimes I forget just how big the Internet is.  :o)  As far as enthomusicology goes, however, I have to disagree with you.  Ethnomusicology is a field that exists all over the world.  Think of it this way: "the study of people making music."  It is not confined to any particular geographic region, nor is it bound by western ideals or thought - It truly is universal.  Here is a good resource:  (http://www.lib.washington.edu/music/world.html).  I definitely think that Musicology and Ethnomusicology could be two separate subject areas, however for organization's sake, I agree that Ethnomusicology could fall under Musicology in a hierarchy.  So your idea on the organizer page Topic:Musicology is a good idea.  Richums 15:50, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Thanks. I love that comment about the size of the internet. :-) And just to "translate" your point into possible structure, Topic:Ethnomusicology could be a subsection of Topic:Musicology... Cormaggio talk 17:14, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Portal:Music
Portal:Music was imported from Wikibooks. It has the author history of the original School of Music page. Please coordinate Portal:Music with School:Music. --JWSchmidt 00:34, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * There are tons of subpages there, you guys would do well to get them coordinated with School:Music.-- digital  _  me   17:17, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Departments etc.
Quick idea based on the wikibooks idea:

Creation of the following departments:

Performance (see note below) Theory and Composition Musicology Jazz Studies

These would have the obvious subject areas in their remit. Also we would need to appoint 'deans' to each of these departments. However, for performance, due to the large number of different instruments, having a dean for the department, then individual teachers or lecturers for each instrument.

I think it would be best if we delayed the appointment of the 'head' till we have a better experience as to who is good at dong what. --Pianist 18:56, 29th August 2006

On second thoughts, forget having a structure. I think it would be better if things were open for contributions - I will be trying out various ideas on the Piano page. --Pianist

 * The latter approach usually works better on Wikis - the structure sort of appears spontaneously, and miraculously works. --HappyCamper 22:17, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

 * "need to appoint 'deans' .... then individual teachers or lecturers for each instrument" <-- Wikiversity does not have appointed "deans", "teachers" or "lecturers". Wikiversity has participants. Some participants will spend more time producing useful educational content and functioning like a teacher. Doing so does not require a title, it is just a matter of participating in the collaborative learning process. --JWSchmidt 22:28, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Sure. I get what you mean, point taken. Suggestion abandoned. --Pianist

Play music on page
Is there anyway of embedding music so that it plays in the background of a page?--Rayc 03:20, 6 September 2006 (UTC) With certain HTML tags, yes, but I'm fairly sure these HTML tags are banned in mediawiki (or cannot be used anyway e.g. body). --Draicone (talk) 05:30, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Proposal for research of Music History and Cultures
This is an idea I had a while ago that might interest some of you, I didn't really know where to start and if we could work on this, it would be great.

The idea was to make "The genealogy of music genres". The idea is to retrace every modern music genres' ansestors going as far back as posible, and i'm not talking of saying "Rock" to include Rock and Roll, Metal, Alternative, but to get in depth with the genres... Example: "Nu-Metal" (Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Crazytown etc...) As been inspired by "Industrial Metal", "Hip-Hop", "Grunge", etc... one generation back would be the same, but for "Industrial Metal", "Hip-Hop", "Grunge", etc... And find information about the cultures and History of the Genres

This is obviously not a complete proposal, but i'm giving the idea... would anyone be interested in researching this along with me? --Halyks 17:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

 * What markers would you used to identifiy which types are related to which other types? This probably has been done somewhere, but it would be a great learning excersize anyway, and an interesting way of teaching it.--Rayc 02:48, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I thought of making it kinda like a Family Tree, Throught "Generations"... we'd have to deside a point in time and tag it's most recently "created" musical genres as "Generation 0" and put everything back as "Generation -1", "Generation -2" and everything that will come later as "generation 1", "generation 2" etc... A quick idea for Generation 0 could be Janurary 1st 2007. Something similar has been made by a man called Sam Dunn for his DVD documentary Metal: A Headbanger's Journey the Genealogy of Heavy Metal is avalible on the Bonus Disk of the documentary but it only covers the genres derived from "Early Metal" (Witch includes bands like Black Sabbath) to New Wave of American Metal (Most of the 2000s Metal bands) and his family tree is really confusing. I'd like to make it for every genres that exists (lots of work to do).-- Halyks 16:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Do you mean ethnomusicology? --CharlieHuang 10:09, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
 * No, I mean the subcultures that music created... not the cultures that makes the music... although it would be a good idea to do both... --Halyks 16:14, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I'd just be bold, and start making a page somewhere. We can move pages around on Wikiversity, so if the idea seems to fit somewhere else, we can fix things easily. --HappyCamper 03:37, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Audio clips
This school seems to be attracting a lot of edits from established and IP users, which is quite nice. I wonder if we should consider looking at how to make audio clips? --HappyCamper 03:39, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Images?
Would it make sense to add a few relevant images to the school / portal page? I uploaded Image:Clair de lune.jpg recently and was hoping it could be useful. (It is public domain) --Draicone (talk) 05:31, 5 October 2006 (UTC) That would make more sense. I have no idea how to get a picture in to Wikiversity, but, I will try to find out. --Unionhawk 20:29, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Music History
I've left a note on the School page, but I'd like to suggest that you notify the History School of any History courses you offer here, so that they may work together with you, or, if nothing else, list these classes in the School of History, as well. Thanks! The Jade Knight 06:39, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Great idea! This would open up a lot of overlapping topics which would draw people to both departments.  Richums 15:54, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Tabla
Hi there, I'm only just a new learner of Tabla, but I notice there's sweet noting for resources for the learner on the web (mainly sites advertising gurus). Since I have a Guru and I don't want to buy more or move, I figured there might be others looking for a learning project??--Dnjkirk 07:38, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Double Bass
The double bass suffers from an identity crisis. Possible names include (but are not limited to): string bass, contrabass, upright bass, bass viol, double bass, bull fiddle, or just plain old "bass." But the generally accepted proper English term for most conservatories is "Double Bass." I suggest changing the bass entry and landing page to be "double bass," and creating a separate one for "bass guitar" to include it's fretted and most-often electric cousin if we feel that this is needed. The two instruments are really different, despite the tuning and range similarities, and it might be best to keep things focused and separated. Sanbeiji 20:09, 23 October 2006 (UTC)sanbeiji

Interdisciplinary course
I've created a course on the History of Ireland through Song. Feel free to mention it here. The Jade Knight 04:03, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

splitting music and dance
Perhaps music and dance are simply expressions originating from the human capability of recognizing and creating Melody. Both of these schools could be in the criteria for "The School of Melodic Expression". It is a distillation of complicated matters, simplifying them into the core essence of their origination, which is the facultys of human intelligence. (ie.. Music and Dance are expressions of Human Melodic capabilities and Creation. ) Kind Regards, Feed back welcomed Gaon Yincang Abhinava 15:24, 22 July 2011 (UTC) 7/22/2011 10:11am<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
doing google searches on "school of dance" and "school of music" each display what seems to be rather distinct results. perhaps the schools should be split into two different schools, "School:Dance" and "School:Music"(currently redirect), respectively. --Remi 09:01, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I very much agree! --BigBear 18:15, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

 * I also agree; from my side of the divide (music), there is plenty of material - if only some of us would write it ;) - to make a School of Music itself. Although knowing the dances, especially the Baroque ones, are necessary for proper realisation of tempos, this link is similar to the one between music and history (although less so, I think?). I'll stick a 'split' template on the school. Besides, I think that most of the material here is music-related anyway! Gaidheal1 21:40, 9 July 2011 (UTC)

Comment. Split. I tend to support split on the basis that music is more amenable to online instruction. Admittedly there are hands on aspects of experiential learning which one cannot grasp sitting in front of a monitor, but IMO the dynamics are waaay different in terms of how the content, material or modality (music/dance) interacts with the medium of online cyber-learning collaboration. Probably the music material will grow at a much faster rate. Also, School of Music and Dance, in the form of American English I am accustomed to, has a specific connotation which is not consistent with a School of Music, particularly the kind of gritty, down home music associated with folk, traditional and country. Dance is implicitly there and will be part of cirriculum insofar as it is integral to the essence of music, but as far as a naming convention, it's a No-Go from the git go. Four of us are in agreement, with no dissenters who have spoken to this point. I would like this thread to close and move to implementation sooner rather than later, thanks. GeoBardRap 00:03, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Split. I absolutely support splitting this school to Music and to Dance.  I'm seeing a number of other clunky "schools" and "school subjects" in the Browse area (e.g., why is Music in "Content by school subject", but not itself a "School".  I think Wikiversity needs a major overhaul in organizing the content found here. -- Thekohser 14:22, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

 * What about renaming it to School:Performing Arts? "Performing arts include the dance, music, opera, drama, magic, Spoken word, circus arts and musicals". -- dark lama  14:59, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I disagree with this point of view. Musical composition is not a performing art (and if it is, someone should notify funding institutions). El erno (talk) 17:47, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Being a professional musician, I also share the opinion that music and dance should be separate schools. While there are a lot of aspects where these two disciplines intersect -tempi of dances as Gaidheal1] point out being a good example- We do look at these intersections from different points of view. An example of this is how we structure time.[[User:El erno|El erno (talk) 17:47, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

Fiddle and Violin
I have restored the link to "Fiddle", as this links to a resource page. Please see Fiddle or Violin. Perhaps it would be helpful to discuss such removals before simply making them, thanks.Leutha 23:35, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Because I believe the term 'fiddle' to relate more to a particular playing style than to a physical instrument, I removed it from what I perceived to be a list of physical instruments (apart from the voice parts, but they should be included anyway). Instead of just removing the link I could have put it somewhere else, but anyway. I admit that I come from a classical background and that therefore I am more likely to call it a violin, but I'm willing to hear you arguments for why 'fiddle' shouldn't appear in a sub-section entitled 'folk music and playing styles' (for example)! I look forward to working on the Music school with you! Gaidheal1 19:38, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I have no idea what is going on here but at first glance this looks like something to be handled with (1) multiple entries and (2) intermediary disambiguation. Remember fiddle is fiddle and violin is violin; both words do apply to physical instruments (variably defined) and to type of music (fiddle tunes, violin solos) as well in some instances to other categories...GeoBardRap 22:39, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Deleting mispelled redlinks from mainspace.
I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings or antagonize anyone in the School however the mainspace was cluttered with a lot of red links which were not even properly spelled. The most recent one was as follows:

 * Composition department (doesn't yet exist, but should be seperate from theory)

The word is spelled separate. I very seldom revert or delete anything, in many years on WMF, but in this case feel it is necessary for the good of the project. Thank you for your kind understanding.GeoBardRap 02:55, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

Neither Schoo: Music nor School:Music and Dance populate
Neither populates the listings page for School wonder what is up with that.GeoBardRap 22:40, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Searching musicians
Hi,

I'm a regular contributor of the french version of Wikiversity. Since a few months, I try to write some music lessons, especially for jazz improvisation : https://fr.wikiversity.org/wiki/D%C3%A9partement:Jazz

I would like to know if there is here musicians who are interested in the same way and I hope to begin a collaboration with some others jazz-players, ideas exchange, bit of scores, tips, etc.

You can answer here or on my own page of discussion : https://fr.wikiversity.org/wiki/Discussion_utilisateur:Thierry613

Thanks a lot.

John P. Jacob

John P. Jacob (born 1957) is an American curator. He grew up in Italy and Venezuela, graduated from the Collegiate School (1975) in New York City, and studied at the University of Chicago before earning a BA in human ecology from the College of the Atlantic (1981) and an MA in art history from Indiana University (1994).

Mailart and photography
John Jacob began his career as an artist, working with reproductive media including photography, Xerography, rubber-stamps, mail-art, and artist's books. During the 1980s, he taught classes on color Xerox and the rubber stamp as a print-making medium, at Pratt Manhattan, with mail-artist Ed Plunkett, and founded the Riding Beggar Press ("If wishes were horses...") to promote his and other artists' work. His first sale, of a sheet of artists' stamps for $75, was from an exhibition curated by Buster Cleveland for the 13th Hour Gallery (NY, 1984).

Jacob's efforts during this period include the irregular mail-art magazine PostHype (1981–85), and the International Portfolio of Artists' Photography (1983–86), an assembling book project conceived to integrate mail-art, book-art, and photography. Increasingly interested in issues related to censorship, and working with artists in the Soviet Bloc countries of Eastern Europe,  the final issue of PostHype (4.1) documented a mail- and phone-art project entitled East/West: Mail Art & Censorship. In 1987, in a self-proclaimed withdrawal from mail-art, Jacob published The Coffee Table Book of Mail Art: The Intimate Letters of J.P. Jacob. With an advertisement declaring "Each copy contains a valuable original artwork by a famous mailartist!!" Jacob gave away original works to recipients of the publication until his collection was exhausted. Jacob continued to exhibit as a photographer through the 1980s, presenting his last one-person exhibition, entitled I'm Trying to See, at the Liget Galeria, Budapest, in 1988. He occasionally exhibited under the pseudonym Janos Jaczkó after that.

Eastern Europe and USSR

Since the mid-1980s, Jacob has worked with artists in Eastern Europe and the former USSR, guest-curating exhibitions for institutions in the United States and Europe, including the Liget Gallery, Budapest, Hungary, the List Visual Arts Center at MIT, the Allen Memorial Art Museum at Oberlin College, and the Staatliche Galerie Moritzburg, Halle (Saale), Germany. From 1986 to 1989, he was supported by grants from the Soros Foundations, Hungary and USSR. Émigré writer Jerzy Kosinski contributed an introductory statement to the exhibition Out of Eastern Europe: Private Photography (1987), describing the work presented as "the penultimate art of spiritual confrontation". Jacob's exhibition The Missing Picture: Alternative Contemporary Photography in the Soviet Union (1990) was the first one-person exhibition of Ukrainian photographer Boris Mikhailov in the US, accompanied by a parallel exhibition of works by four young Soviet photographers inspired by him.

Recollecting a Culture: Photography and the Evolution of a Socialist Aesthetic in East Germany (1999), commemorating the 10th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, presented the archive of the FotoKino Verlag, publisher of the GDR's professional photography periodical, Fotografie, with works dating from 1929 to 1989. The American photographer and theorist Diane Neumaier, in her history of Soviet non-conformist photography, credited Jacob's work as foundational to that of later historians such as herself. His essay "After Roskolnikov: Russian Photography Today," edited by Neumaier for the College Art Association's Art Journal, critically examined the impact of Western attention, including his own, on the art of post-Perestroika Russia.

Career and research
Jacob has been an arts administrator since the 1990s. He became director of exhibitions for the Photographic Resource Center at Boston University in 1992, and was named executive director in 1993. Jacob's exhibitions for the PRC include There is No Eye, a retrospective of photographer/musician John Cohen (2002), and Facing Death: Portraits from Cambodia’s Killing Fields (with Robert E. Seydel, 1997). Other exhibitions Jacob curated for the PRC explored the intersections of photography with dance and music,   including the first presentation of photographs by Lou Reed.

In 2003, Jacob was named founding director of the Inge Morath Foundation by Morath's husband, playwright Arthur Miller, and daughter, film-maker Rebecca Miller, and in 2014 facilitated the acquisition of the Morath archive by the Beinecke Library at Yale University and a collection of her master prints by the Yale University Art Gallery. From 2011 to 2015, he served as Program Director for the Magnum Foundation's Legacy Program, and as contributing editor for Esopus (magazine) re-created early Magnum distributions, in a series entitled "Analog Recovery," from the vast Magnum archive. He is presently McEvoy Family Curator for Photography at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. Among Jacob's exhibitions for SAAM, the Art Newspaper ranked Diane Arbus: A box of ten photographs the first most visited photography exhibition and the ninth most visited art exhibition worldwide for 2019, with 1,677,000 attendees; and it ranked Trevor Paglen: Sites Unseen the thirteenth most visited art exhibition, with 1,132,800 attendees.

Jacob is married to Noriko Fuku, professor and director of the Art Communication Research Center at the Kyoto University of Art and Design (semi-retired 2017). Jacob's curatorial projects with Fuku include Patti Smith & Friends: Drawings by Patti Smith, Polaroids by Oliver Ray, and Photographs by Michael Stipe (2002), for the Museum Eki, Kyoto, and Man Ray: Unconcerned But Not Indifferent (2007), for the PhotoEspaña photography festival, Madrid. The exhibition traveled throughout Europe and to the National Museums of Japan in Tokyo and Osaka.

Jacob's papers and the archive of the Riding Beggar Press are held by the Beinecke Library at Yale University.

Morning Light (Gruner)

Morning Light is a 1916 painting by the Australian artist Elioth Gruner. The painting depicts a small herd of dairy cows in a grassy field in the morning with a man, the farmer, in the foreground. Hailed as the high point of [his] Emu Plains series" and "one of his greatest masterpieces", Morning Light was awarded the Wynne Prize in 1916.

Morning Light was largely painted en plein air at Emu Plains—now an outer western suburb of Sydney but then a rural area—on a farm owned by James Innes. Elioth Gruner's 1919 painting Spring Frost also shows this farm.

Gruner was influenced by Melbourne artist Max Meldrum's tonal theory as well as the brushwork of E Phillips Fox. The work also shows influence from modernist contemporaries Grace Cossington Smith and Roland Wakelin.

"The slightly elevated point of view allows for an expansive vista across the paddocks to the misted horizon line, with nearly two-thirds of the painting sky. Gruner invested the pastoral subject with both intimacy and universality; the turning figure lit by the sun draws us into the scene, which is a meditation on light and atmosphere. In the foreground the painting’s surface is animated by choppy vigorous brushwork and highlights of vivid colour, almost pulsing from the effect of the sun, which is just beyond vision"

- Deborah Clark

The work was first exhibited at the Society of Artists' annual exhibition in Sydney in November 1916 and made Gruner's reputation.

After winning the Wynne Prize the work was immediately purchased by the Art Gallery of New South Wales and remains part of its collection.

Scattered (Battlestar Galactica)

"Scattered" is the first episode of the second season of the reimagined Battlestar Galactica television series. It aired originally on the Sci Fi Channel on July 15, 2005.

In the episode, Commander William Adama is in critical condition following his shooting in the cliffhanger ending of the first season. Galactica is separated from the fleet during a Cylon attack, and Colonel Saul Tigh, now in command, must reunite them. He does this by ordering the ship's computers networked in defiance of Adama's standing orders. Cylon Centurions board Galactica. On Kobol, Cylons kill one of the survivors of the Raptor crash.

The episode received favorable critical reception.

Plot
With Commander Adama shot in the chest by Boomer, Col. Tigh is forced to take command as a Cylon Basestar arrives. Tigh has the fleet take an emergency faster-than-light jump to escape, despite the stranded survey team on the planet Kobol. When Galactica jumps, however, the rest of the fleet is not there.

Tigh interrogates Boomer in the brig. Boomer, horrified at her own betrayal, urges him to kill her, but he refuses. A medic is forced to operate on Adama in Dr. Cottle's absence. In a sequence of flashbacks, Tigh recalls how Adama got Tigh back into the Colonial Fleet following the First Cylon War.

In order to find the fleet, Tigh has Galactica jump back to orbit around Kobol with the ship's computers networked together (something Adama would have vehemently opposed because of the dangers of Cylon hacking) to calculate the jump coordinates before the Cylons can destroy Galactica. He also paroles Apollo, still in the brig for his attempted mutiny, so that he can command the Vipers in the coming battle. As the battle rages, the Cylons attempt to hack Galactica's network, but Lieutenant Gaeta's five stage software firewall appears to hold, with the fifth stage not breaching until the same moment he disengages the network. A Cylon Heavy Raider crashes into Galactica shortly before Galactica jumps and meets the fleet. A group of Cylon Centurions emerges from the Heavy Raider.

On Kobol, Crashdown orders the survivors to take cover in a nearby forest. In an attempt to recover medical supplies that they left behind, he has Tarn, Chief Tyrol and Cally retrieve them, but Cylons kill Tarn before they get back.

On Caprica, Helo stops Starbuck from shooting Caprica-Boomer. As they argue, Boomer steals Starbuck's Cylon Raider, stranding them.

Characterization
In his podcast commentary on "Scattered", executive producer Ronald D. Moore discussed his views of what the episode's events reveal about several of the characters.
 * Tigh's success leading Galactica back to the fleet in "Scattered" and dealing with the Centurion threat in the following episode, "Valley of Darkness", validates Adama's faith in him. After the military crises passes, Tigh's leadership is hampered by his lack of political skill, his alcoholism and Ellen Tigh's manipulation.
 * The writers created Crashdown in the first season to replace Helo as Galactica-Boomer's electronic countermeasures officer. He was conceived as a jokester and he demonstrates in this episode that he may not have the skills necessary to lead an infantry unit.
 * During the space battle, the Marine guarding Laura Roslin's cell asks to pray with her and calls her a prophet of the gods. According to Moore, this marks the beginning of some people in the fleet viewing Roslin as a religious figure and Roslin's reluctant embrace of that role.
 * The scenes between Roslin and Apollo in the brig are tense because of Apollo's disappointment that Roslin failed to back him up when he defied the coup in "Kobol's Last Gleaming". Apollo expresses this disappointment in a scene deleted from "The Farm".

Production
The second-season premiere was initially going to be set in the distant past, leaving unaddressed the cliffhanger that ended the previous season. "Scattered" would have been the second season's second episode and would have included the action on Kobol and Caprica shown in "Valley of Darkness". After this idea was abandoned, the writers considered opening the episode with the deleted flashback in which Adama and Tigh first met. Several flashbacks providing background on Adama and Tigh's relationship were filmed, but the production team felt that the flashbacks fit poorly into the series's tone. Also, they did not want to recast younger actors to play Adama and Tigh but were unsatisfied by the efforts to make actors Edward James Olmos and Michael Hogan appear decades younger. The final version has fewer, shorter flashbacks intended to focus mostly on Tigh's character. Several of the abandoned flashbacks are included as deleted scenes on the DVD. The flashback in which military police find a drunken Tigh in his hotel room and tell him Adama has gotten him reinstated is an homage to the film Apocalypse Now.

"Scattered" was the first episode of Battlestar Galactica broadcast in North America that used music over the main credits that had previously been used only in the UK broadcasts. According to Moore, everyone involved in the show preferred the UK version. "Scattered" omits the montage of upcoming scenes that followed the credits in first-season episodes, both because of time considerations and in response to criticism of the montages.

The idea of Galactica and the fleet being separated after a jump was one of the original log lines Moore submitted to the Sci Fi network before the networked picked up Battlestar Galactica.

Several shots of Tigh walking the corridors of Galactica appearing in "Scattered" were actually filmed for the second season's fourth episode, "Resistance". The production team needed the shots in "Scattered" to intercut with one of Tigh's flashbacks. Several shots in the space battle scene appeared first in the miniseries.

The dialogue among Tyrol, Cally, and Tarn before they are ambushed by Cylons was improvised by the actors. Moore saw Tarn's death as commentary of the ugliness of war. Asked in a December 2005 interview what was the most difficult scene in the series to shoot, actor Aaron Douglas (Tyrol) said, "The scenes where someone dies in the Chief's arms are difficult to do because they take a really long time to shoot and you are constantly in a state of loss and sadness. They are very draining."

Reception
"Scattered" was reviewed favorably by critics. Robert Bianco of USA Today gave "Scattered" three and a half stars out of four. Susan Tankersley of Television Without Pity gave the episode an A, finding the jumping dilemma contrived but saying the space battle "look[ed] fantastic." Kevin McDonough of the Intelligencer Journal praised the episode's incorporation of scenes from multiple genres, including "a hospital operating-room drama, terrestrial combat action, political intrigue and your standard space dogfight conducted at warp speed." Jason Davis of Mania gave it a B+, praising Hogan's acting and the flashbacks. Simon Brew of Den of Geek appreciated the visual device used to show the Cylons trying to penetrate Gaeta's firewall.

Eric Goldman of IGN ranked Tigh taking command in "Scattered" and the following three episodes at #11 on his list of the top 20 storylines and moments in the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica.

Connections to other series elements

 * The crew of Galactica discover and battle the intruding Cylon Centurions in the following episode, "Valley of Darkness".
 * Also in "Valley of Darkness", the medical supplies arrive too late, and Socinus dies.
 * In the episode "Flight of the Phoenix", it is revealed that a Cylon virus penetrated Galactica's computers despite Gaeta's firewall.

Music Theory/Consonance and Dissonance

Consonance and dissonance are subjective qualities of relationship that we assign to music intervals. A quick review of intervals might be helpful if you're approaching the subject for the first time. A dissonant interval can be described as being "unstable" or demanding treatment by resolving to a consonant interval. A consonant interval is one that is stable and does not demand treatment. However, dissonance in itself is not an undesirable thing; we use dissonance to provide the "spice" to music. Thus, there is a hierarchy of consonant and dissonant intervals. (Chords having dissonant intervals are themselves considered dissonant).

Note that this distinction depends entirely on musical context. As such, a sonority which is consonant in one context where it does not seem to demand resolution (say, major 2nds in a Debussy prelude) may sound harsh or out-of-place in a different context where it must be resolved (the same major 2nds in a Bach fugue). In this article, we will be using the terms "consonant" and "dissonant" as they are understood in common-practice tonal music, as is the tacit convention when speaking of consonance and dissonance in general.

Consonant intervals in tonal music

 * The perfect fifth and the perfect octave are considered perfect consonances. The unison is a consonance insofar as it can be considered an interval at all (many say it cannot).
 * The major third and sixth, as well as the minor third, sixth, are considered to be imperfect consonances.
 * The perfect fourth is dissonant in some contexts but consonant in others (see below). Specifically, the perfect fourth is dissonant when it is formed with the bass note of any sonority.

Dissonant intervals

 * The perfect fourth is considered dissonant in common practice music when not supported by a lower third or fifth (but see below).
 * Major and minor seconds, sevenths, and ninths are dissonant. Composer/theorist Vincent Persichetti, in his book Twentieth-Century Harmony, classifies major 2nds, minor 7ths, and major 9ths as "soft dissonances," whereas minor 2nds, major 7ths, and minor 9ths are "sharp dissonances."
 * The tritone (an augmented fourth or diminished fifth) is dissonant. In the Middle Ages and Renaissance, it was known as diabolus in musica because the perfect fifth was considered to be a reflection of the divine, and the tritone falls just short of a perfect fifth. [Note for the advanced: Technically, it is not proper to refer to the diminished fifth as a "tritone." The word "tritone" refers to "three whole-tones," the distance represented by the tritone. This means that the augmented fourth, which comprises three whole-tones, is a true tritone, while the diminished fifth, because of its accidental-spelling, is not made up of three whole-tones and is therefore not a tritone. However, it is acceptable as an informal convention to refer to the diminished fifth as a "tritone."]
 * In Jazz, the minor 9th is often considered too dissonant for practical use. This is the basis for some notes being called "avoid notes", typically the 4th of a major scale - it sounds dissonant because it forms a minor 9th with the 3rd. Other "avoid notes" are the minor 6th in aeolian mode, or the minor 2nd in phrygian mode. Some chords are typically voiced to avoid a minor 9th (musicians invert the interval and play a major 7th instead). For example, in a Cadd11 chord (see ../Complete List of Chord Patterns/), there is a minor ninth between the third, E and the eleventh F. If the F is played below the E, the interval becomes a major seventh, which is less dissonant.

The perfect fourth
The perfect fourth is the inversion of the perfect fifth. In common practice music, it can be both consonant and dissonant: in this case, it has a need for resolution when unsupported by lower notes, in which case it is dissonant even though it sounds as "good" as the fifth. The fourth is always consonant when supported by a lower third or perfect fifth, for example, E-G-C-E is consonant, but G-C-E is dissonant. In more contemporary music, many consider the fourth to always be as consonant as the fifth.

The perfect fourth is often considered a perfect consonance, as the perfect fifth and the octave.

Multilocus genotype

A multilocus genotype is the combination of alleles found at two or more loci in a single individual.

For example, in a diploid species, if there are two SNP loci and the first locus has alleles A and G, while the second locus has alleles T and C, the multilocus genotype can be represented as {A/G,T/C}. If the genome is not haploid then the multilocus genotype does not necessarily determine which alleles co-occur on chromosomes. In the example, if the two loci are located on the same chromosome the possibilities are either {A-T,G-C} or {A-C,G-T}. Where A-T represents a haplotype with alleles A and T together on one chromosome and G and C together on the other. If the haplotypes are determined the multilocus genotype is referred to as a phased genotype, otherwise it is referred to as unphased. Some authors suggest that the term multilocus genotype should only be applied to phased multilocus data while others apply it to unphased multilocus data as well. The combination of alleles at two or more loci on a single chromosome make up a haplotype and the two haplotypes in a diploid individual make up the diplotype (a synonym for a phased multilocus genotype).
