BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Roads were flooded and rivers were rising across the Deep South on Tuesday after a day of heavy rains that once again filled a Mississippi lake where a dam previously was in danger of failing and put another in danger.

The National Weather Service said minor to moderate flooding was expected from central Mississippi to north Georgia following downpours. The Tennessee River was predicted to crest about 7 feet above flood level at Perryville, Tennessee, on Sunday.

MISSISSIPPI WEATHER: Flash flooding hits Mississippi, more rain, severe weather possible

Multiple roads were covered with water or washed out because of rainfall that exceeded 5 inches in spots across central Alabama, and forecasters said totals could reach 6 inches by nightfall.

Schools opened late or closed in parts of Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana because of flash flooding. A flood watch stretched from eastern Texas to Mississippi, and parts of Alabama were under flood warnings.

In Cullman, north of Birmingham, the sheriff's office said Deputy Adam Clark and his police dog were badly injured in a wreck that occurred during heavy rains overnight. The cause of the crash was under investigation.

In eastern Mississippi, officials in Starkville said the water at Oktibbeha County Lake had once again reached a critical level just weeks after heavy rains caused a mudslide that put the earthen dam in danger of failing.

WATCH: Flash floods hit Hattiesburg

Pumps had been used to lower the lake level by about 8 feet since mid-January, the Starkville Daily News reported, but the water rose again because of storms.

“I am concerned with the amount of rainfall we are expected to receive this week, we could possibly exceed the level where we were in January,” said a statement by Kristen Campanella, emergency management director in Oktibbeha County.

Officials also were monitoring the site of a potential dam failure in Yazoo County, where the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency said a 40-acre lake in a subdivision was leaking around a culvert and washing away dirt, threatening four homes and a church. Five homes were evacuated after a levee breach in Leake.

Elsewhere in Mississippi, 25 homes had been damaged and four people were hurt in wrecks caused by vehicles hydroplaning on wet roads, according to the state. The damage was worst in Yazoo, where a dozen people were displaced from homes.

The Tennessee Valley region has received 550% of its normal rainfall during the past seven days, James Everett, senior manager of the Tennessee Valley Authority's River Forecast Center, said in a briefing. Rainfall averaged around 6 inches across the valley, but some places got as much as 9 inches.

"We're getting a brief break in rainfall today, but we expect it to pick up tomorrow through Thursday," Everett said.

To manage all of the water, the TVA will continue storing water in large mountain reservoirs to help reduce flooding downstream, Everett said. The agency plans to adjust its strategy for water storage and flows depending on how much more water falls on the already saturated ground, he said.

Isolated tornadoes and winds in excess of 60 mph are possible in some areas of the South after nightfall Wednesday, the National Weather Service said.

Using Claro Keyboard, you can get the support of Claro’s text-to-speech, word prediction and definition feature in any app where you can type. Claro Keyboard can be used as a supplement or a replacement to the standard iOS system keyboard.

Claro Keyboard Features

Word Prediction

Prediction example

Claro Keyboard uses word prediction that makes extensive use of Claro Software’s word list frequencies, predicting more words and presenting the most likely words first. Word prediction in Claro Keyboard also supports images, so you can see a visual depiction of the proposed word to help make sure that you are choosing the correct word.

There is also support for phonetic prediction, to help with common phonetic mistakes. For example, if you type “wood”, you’ll see “would” predicted, so you can double-check that you have the correct word.

Claro Keyboard works with all of the high-quality voices that our users are familiar with. You can choose to use any iOS system voice, or you can also download up to four higher-quality voices, free of charge, in over 60 different languages and accent variations.

Using your preferred voice, you can utilise the typing echo features in Claro Keyboard to have your typed text read back to you, as it is typed. This can help you proofread as you type and ensure the accuracy of your work.

Claro Keyboard, also supports tap and play. You can tap anywhere in an area of text and tap the play button on the keyboard toolbar and the text will be spoken aloud. The keyboard app will also progress to the next sentence and read that back as well.

Example of Definition

You can tap a word or tap and hold to select a word and then tap the definitions button on the keyboard toolbar, to get a definition of the current word. Unlike the iOS definitions feature, you don’t leave the app and you can still see your text for reference. In the Claro Keyboard definitions feature, you can also have the definition spoken aloud to you, by tapping the play button in the definitions window.

Allow Full Access

For you to be able to fully utilise all of Claro Keyboard’s features, you will need to enable “Allow Full Access” in the iOS Settings app. Rest assured that none of your keyboard typing will be stored or transmitted anywhere outside of the app.

You can enable this setting in the iOS Settings app under ClaroSpeak > Keyboards > Allow Full Access.

Supported Languages

Claro Keyboard currently has full support for English and Swedish, with possible plans to support other languages in the future.

You can use Claro Keyboard in other languages for reading back text by using one of over 60 available voices in the language that you require.

Get it

Claro Keyboard is currently bundled with our ClaroSpeak iOS app, so all users who have ClaroSpeak will get the Claro Keyboard app for free.

For ClaroSpeak Plus users, the Claro Keyboard is fully unlocked and ready to use.

For ClaroSpeak Free users, you can log in to the main ClaroSpeak app with your Claro Cloud account. If you have a valid licence, you can unlock the Free app to the Plus version, this will then activate the Claro Keyboard app as well.

Our experience has been that companies may have significant overpayments of sales and use taxes available for refund so that every month that passes without filing refunds could mean substantial dollars lost forever, as the statute of limitations is four years.

There are numerous oilfield items that qualify for sales tax exemption that are regularly overlooked by vendors and accounts payable departments.  These include certain processing equipment, certain oilfield chemicals, well servicing activities, real property services, and processing equipment repairs. Taxpayers are allowed to collect refunds of overpaid taxes for a period of four years.  A company is highly likely to have many purchases falling under these exempt categories.  We have been able to locate refunds for companies that have tried very hard to catch these specific types of over payments themselves, but the sheer volume of invoices flowing through their payables system precludes them from identifying all qualifying exempt purchases.

Most accounting departments do not have time available to pursue this type of time-consuming special project.  We can take the time to properly review the company’s invoices and locate purchases that should be exempt and make the necessary filings with the vendors and Comptroller’s office to recoup the overpaid sales taxes without placing a burden on the accounting department personnel. We have found that the vendors will usually charge tax even if they are aware that the item may be tax exempt due to their concern of exposure on audit.  Our review also allows us to educate the accounting personnel as to what is properly tax exempt so that you can stop paying tax on eligible items in the future.

One of our goals is to keep your company's time required for our review to an absolute minimum. Our review will be efficient and economically beneficial to your company.

When To Buy Organic—And When To Safely Skip It

Updated Apr 4, 2018 @ 11:01 am

By Sarah McColl

The arrival of the Environmental Working Group’s annual lists of the Dirty Dozen and Clean Fifteen is the healthy food world equivalent of Hollywood’s early-morning Oscar nominations. Never heard of these lists? The Dirty Dozen are fruits and vegetables that are riddled with pesticide residue, so those are important to buy organic, while the Clean Fifteen are a-ok to buy conventionally farmed. And the list has seen some changes from last year.

How important are these lists? On thousands of conventionally grown produce samples it analyzed, the USDA found 178 different pesticides. If you’re thinking, “I always wash my produce, I’m cool,” we’re sorry to tell you that the pesticides lingered even when fruits and vegetables were washed and even peeled, in some cases.

It would be great to buy all organic, all the time, but that can get expensive and limit your choices. Use the Dirty Dozen list to guide you on the fruits and vegetables most beneficial to buy organic, and then you can be a bit more flexible with the Clean Fifteen.

So go ahead and commit these lists to memory—or print out a pretty PDF to take with you when you shop.

Each of the foods below (listed in pesticide-residue order) tested positive for a number of different pesticides and contained higher concentrations than other produce. More than 98 percent of samples of strawberries, spinach, peaches, nectarines, cherries and apples tested positive for residue of at least one pesticide—a single sample of strawberries showed 20 different pesticides. Spinach samples had, on average, twice as much pesticide residue by weight than any other crop. And new to the list this year? Pears and potatoes.

Human hands holding fresh ripe tomatoes

Fell free to pile on the guac and grab another ear of corn: Avocados and sweet corn were the cleanest of all, with only 1 percent of samples showing any detectable pesticides. As for the rest of the best, more than 80 percent of pineapples, papayas, asparagus, onions and cabbage had no pesticide residues. No single fruit sample from the Clean Fifteen tested positive for more than four types of pesticides—and only 5 percent of Clean Fifteen vegetable samples had two or more pesticides. Avoiding GMOs? A small amount of sweet corn, papaya, and summer squash sold in the United States is produced from genetically modified seeds. If this is a concern for you, buy organic varieties of these crops.

There are good reasons to buy organic other than simply avoiding pesticides on your plate, of course. While the research is mixed on whether organic fruits and vegetables contain more nutritional benefit than their conventionally grown counterparts, they are better for the environment and for the farmers who grow them. Organic farming uses less energy, results in more fertile soil, and is more profitable to farmers, the Washington Post found. So do it when you can, and when you can’t, stick to the cleanest contenders.

Question of the Day – Wednesday September 11, 2019

Question – What is the phenomenon of so-called “endocrine disruption”?

Answer – U.S. EPA notes “In the last two decades there has been a growing awareness of the possible adverse effects in humans and wildlife from exposure to chemicals that can interfere with the endocrine system. These effects can include: developmental malformations, interference with reproduction, increased cancer risk; and disturbances in the immune and nervous system function.

Clear evidence exists that some chemicals cause these effects in wildlife, but limited evidence exists for the potential of chemicals to cause these effects in humans at environmental exposure levels. Very few chemicals have been tested for their potential to interfere with the endocrine system. Current standard test methods do not provide adequate data to identify potential endocrine disruptors (EDs) or to assess their risks to humans and wildlife.” (; accessed September 2019)

Using Containers for Continuous Deployment

Pini Reznik explains how containers can help shorten the software development feedback loop by drastically reducing the overhead involved in deploying new software environments. This leads to faster build and test executions and simplifies the standardization of the development and production environments, allowing for an easier transition to continuous deployment.

In his seminal article “Continuous Integration,” Martin Fowler defines a set of practices to improve the quality and increase the speed of the software development process. These practices include having a fast and fully automated build all the way from development to production and conformity between testing and production environments.

Since Fowler’s article was published, continuous integration has become one of the key practices of modern agile development, and many of us are in a constant battle to speed up the build process and test automation stages. The growing complexity of software and our aspiration to deliver it to the customer in a matter of days or even hours doesn’t make this battle any easier.

The recent rise of containers as a tool to ease the journey from development to production may help us address these challenges.

Containers (OS Level Virtualization)
Containers allow us to create multiple isolated and secure environments within a single instance of an operating system. As opposed to virtual machines (VMs), containers do not launch a separate OS but instead share the host kernel while maintaining the isolation of resources and processes where required.

This architectural difference leads to the drastic reduction in the overheads related to starting and running instances. As a result, the startup time can commonly be reduced from thirty plus seconds to 0.1 seconds. The number of containers running on a typical server can easily reach dozens or even hundreds while the same server would struggle to support ten to fifteen VMs.

The following article written by David Strauss provides an excellent explanation about containers: “Containers—Not Virtual Machines—Are the Future Cloud.

Deployment Pipelines
I started building deployment pipelines about a decade ago when I moved from a software development role into configuration management.

At my first job I reduced the build time from a week to around two to three hours, including the creation of a VM image and the deployment of a full system on a hypervisor. Over 50 percent of the build time was wasted on the creation and deployment of the VM while the build and the automated system testing required less than an hour.

Throughout the years virtualization technology took a few leaps forward and now we can deploy a fully functional multi VM system on a private or a public cloud in just few minutes. Although this represents a huge amount of progress, it still creates enormous difficulties when trying to create a real continuous deployment pipeline. Having a fast build means keeping the continuous integration build under ten minutes as suggested by Martin Fowler. Achieving this speed normally means confining the testing to running a suite of unit tests; there just isn't the time to build a full image, copy the image over the network, deploy the VMs and run a set of system tests.

But what if we could build a new image in just a few seconds, copy to the cloud only the changed pieces of the software and boot up a fully functional system in under one second?

As unimaginable as it sounds, it is already possible using containers. In addition to being able to deploy and test a full system at the continuous integration stage, containers can also help to reduce the complexity related to supporting variations in operating systems. The same container image created during a normal build can be reused in production environments to remove any potential differences between the operating systems on the developer’s laptops and those on the production servers.

The same functionality is theoretically possible using standard VMs, but in practice it never really works. The overhead of maintaining huge VM images, distributing them and re-deploying them multiple times per day has prevented this way of working from becoming popular.

Test Automation
The more efficient usage of resources and almost instant startup times provided by containers is hugely important for super-fast continuous integration builds, but there are even bigger benefits for large test execution scenarios.

Today, the redeployment of a full operating system for the each test automation suite is out of the question, therefore the same system is used to execute hundreds or even thousands of test cases in a quick succession. This requires very sophisticated teardown procedures between the execution of the test suites, which is often a source of errors. Such errors may cause a butterfly effect, leading to an unexpected failure in an unrelated part of the test execution. In addition, teardown procedures are expensive to write and maintain and may take significant time to execute.

With containers, we can eliminate teardown procedures entirely. Every single test automation suite can run in a separate disposable container, which can simply be thrown away after execution. A notable side effect of this is that we can now run all the tests in fully isolated containers in parallel and on any hosting environment that supports containers. This can potentially reduce test automation time from hours to minutes or even seconds depending on the resources at your disposal.

DevOps and Continuous Delivery
The DevOps movement is increasingly popular and aims to bridge the communication gap between development and operations. I see the creation of a common technical language as one of the biggest challenges for DevOps, since these two departments have typically been trying to solve different problems. Although containers will not fix or resolve this challenge, they may significantly simplify the situation for both parties and create an environment, which is easily accessible for both programmers and IT operators.

The standardization of tooling in both departments will allow software to move faster through the pipeline and reduce the complexity required at each stage. By doing that we can take another step towards faster feedback loops with continuous delivery.

In Conclusion
Modern software development relies on the extensive reuse and integration of existing software components. This makes setting up development and production environments especially challenging.

Containers have been here for a while, but only recently have they become reliable and usable enough for daily operations. They will very soon allow us to remove the burden of running thousands of unneeded operating system instances and focus on the real services we provide to our customers.

Containers are making continuous deployment look like an achievable goal.

Clifford Berg's picture

The author makes a great point that is often overlooked - the fact that containers are so disposable - one need to do test teardown because one does not need to reuse a container. In devops processes people often rebuild their environments only daily - or less frequently - because of the time it takes. But if one creates a container image from a good baseline, one can reload that image almost instantly, use it for testing, and then throw it away - one can then always use clean test environments.

As the name implies, mixed use developments often integrate a combination of uses that may incorporate various types of construction presenting different challenges or conditions to consider while performing an assessment of the property.  Due to CODA's extensive experience assessing an ever-expanding inventory of asset classes, we are accustomed to identifying building system deficiencies and potential problems, quantifying the issues, and recommending corrective actions.  Regardless of type or use, CODA implements the same thorough and diligent effort to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the subject property to help you make informed business decisions.

CODA’s reports are customized to our client's needs and desires. Additionally, we work with you from the inception of the project or portfolio to after the submittal of our draft report.  We will work with you until you are satisfied with our end product and ensure it addresses your needs for the property.

Water Tower Place Mixed Use Development, Chicago, IL

Water Tower Place is a large, urban, mixed use development skyscraper located in Chicago, Illinois.  The 74-story complex, located at 835 North Michigan Avenue along the Magnificent Mile, opened in 1976 and is vertically subdivided into retail, office, hotel, and condominiums. CODA performed a Property Condition Assessment on behalf of the Lender as a result of the Borrower's request to refinance the property. The collateral for the loan included the eight-floors of retail space (708,161 SF), four levels of underground parking (699 parking spaces), and one floor of professional office space (90,387 SF) located above the retail space.

New Mixed Use Development, Los Angeles, California, May 2011 – May 2013

CODA is providing Owner representative services for the equity partner during the construction of a mixed use development in the greater Los Angeles area.  Once completed the project will be a multi-use development consisting of 208 residential units, retail/restaurant spaces, and subterranean garage parking. The amenities will include a residential lobby, fitness center, two landscaped courtyard areas located at the podium level, and a rooftop sundeck with two jacuzzis.  During construction, CODA performs monthly site visits to observe constructed elements, monitor progress, confirm funding requirements, and generally keep the client apprised of impactful events.

Ghirardelli Square, San Francisco, California

The project comprised the conversion of 72,236 SF of office space at historic Ghirardelli Square into 53 Fairmont- branded private residence club units to be sold as fractional interests.  The property underwent a major redevelopment that took 24 months at a cost of $59 million. The conversion was completed in 2008. We evaluated design documents, performed construction-monitoring services, and prepared funding recommendations for the Lender. Construction monitoring activities encompassed regular site visits, documenting the progress and work at the project site through review of key construction issues. In addition, we  reviewed the form of Applications for Payment, Change Orders, and requests for changes or alterations from the construction documents. Our services were also intended to review the progress of the work each month to determine that tasks had been well-executed and were in general accordance with the intent of the contract documents. We were charged with identifying unsatisfactory work or deviations from the plan, and working with the ownership to resolve conflicts. (ie)

Why this 1916 Standing Liberty quarter is a classic

Missouri auctioneer Scotsman Auction Co.’s latest rare coin sale was held on July 29 as part of the Missouri Numismatic Society’s 56th annual coin show, at the Saint Charles Convention Center in metropolitan St. Louis. As usual, Scotsman’s Midwest Summer Sale featured a diverse range of collector coins including a few standouts. But alongside these expensive rarities were many more lots of uncertified coins, complete or nearly-complete date and Mint mark sets in albums, and groups that proved ripe for discoveries from sharp-eyed collectors.

Here's the third and final under-the-radar coin from the sale that we're profiling in this week's Market Analysis:

The Lot:

1916 Standing Liberty quarter dollar, PCGS Mint State 65 Full Head

The Price:

The Story:

One of the most popular 20th century silver coins is the 1916 Standing Liberty quarter dollar with its obverse nudity. Examples are often weakly struck at Liberty’s head, so examples designated full head by grading services are coveted by collectors.

Connect with Coin World:

Scotsman offered one graded MS-65 full head by Professional Coin Grading Service and as the auctioneer reported, “One of the all-time classics of the entire American numismatic compendium, a 1916 quarter in gem grade with full head details qualifies as a ‘perfect coin in the perfect grade.’ ”

The lustrous coin featured handsome green-gold toning and the reverse was encircled by what was described as “a distinctive band of gleaming denim-grey color, ceding once more to the prevalent chartreuse tones.” The handsome quarter dollar sold for $28,750.

Living near major roads linked to higher risk of dementia, Parkinson’s: UBC study

Green space could mitigate some of the risks, researchers found

Living near major roads is linked to a higher risk of neurological disorders, a study from the University of B.C. has found.

Researchers analyzed data from 678,000 people in Metro Vancouver between the ages of 45-84 from 1994 to 1998 and again from 1999 to 2003.

During the follow up, they identified around 20,000 cases of non-Alzheimer’s dementia, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis.

The study looked at how living within 50 metres of a major road, or 150 metres from a highway, increased the risk of these degenerative neurological diseases. Little is known so far about why those diseases progress.

Because relatively few people had Alzheimer’s or multiple sclerosis in the region, researchers focused on non-Alzheimer’s dementia and Parkinson’s disease. The data showed a 14-per-cent increase in non-Alzheimer’s dementia and a seven-per-cent uptick in Parkinson’s for those living near major routes.

The effect was largely due to air pollution, but could be mitigated through living near green spaces.

“More research is needed, but our findings do suggest that urban planning efforts to increase accessibility to green spaces and to reduce motor vehicle traffic would be beneficial for neurological health,” said lead author Weiran Yuchi, a PhD candidate at UBC’s School of Population and Public Health.

Researchers believe green space could lessen the risk of neurological disorders in several ways.

“For people who are exposed to a higher level of green space, they are more likely to be physically active and may also have more social interactions,” said professor and senior study author Michael Brauer. “There may even be benefits from just the visual aspects of vegetation.”

My Favorite Buttermilk Cornbread Recipe

Definitely not Southern but this buttermilk cornbread recipe is bursting with corn flavor.

I love cornbread. It’s pure comfort food. One that I still indulge in every once in a while.

Cornbread can be a very controversial subject so let me just get something out right here and right now: This post doesn’t profess to be sharing the definitive cornbread recipe because I have no intention on stepping on anyone’s toesies. I’m not going to get into the sugar/no sugar debate because I’m not Southern, I’ve never been to the South and I certainly have no intention of slighting anyone’s grandma.

I’ve had had traditional Southern cornbread. You know the kind? The one with no wheat flour and no sugar made in a blazing hot cast iron skillet? But I gotta say, not my cup of tea. Or should I say, not my slice of bread? Whatever. Point is, every time I’ve had it, it’s been on the dry side plus I’m not a fan of the crispy, brown, even drier edges.

For nearly 35 years, I’ve played with cornbread recipes. I’ve made cornbread from white cornmeal and I’ve made it from yellow. I’ve even made it without sugar and with. I’ve made it without added corn kernels and with. I’ve made it using mixes and I’ve made it from scratch. But in the end, I gotta say, I prefer it with a little bit of sugar, a little bit of wheat flour, definitely with buttermilk and most definitely, with whole kernel corn for a bit of added texture and some real corn flavor.

So, this is my family’s favorite version. I hope you find a place for it in your kitchen, too, even if you have to call it dessert.

Buttermilk Cornbread

I use oil instead of butter as I find the oil makes a more tender crumb. Feel free to use butter if you prefer. Substitute it one-to-one. Also, don't skip letting the batter rest for 10 minutes before baking off. It really makes a difference by giving the cornmeal time to re-hydrate.

Makes one 8x8 square pan

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
¼ cup sugar
¾ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon fine sea salt (or ¼ teaspoon regular salt)
1 cup cold buttermilk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
½ cup canola oil
1 cup whole kernel corn

Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper so that it hangs over on two sides These will be used as “handles" to lift out the cornbread later. Spray the pan and the parchment lightly with a coat of non-stick spray (I use high quality baker’s spray which has flour in it). Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Sift together the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Whisk together the wet ingredients. Add the corn to the flours. Fold in the wet ingredients using a silicon spatula, pulling the dry ingredients up from the bottom. Don’t over mix, just stir long enough so no dry flour is left. Pour into the prepared pan; let sit for 10 minutes to hydrate the cornmeal. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes before lifting out and slicing. Store covered at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerated for up to 4 days (or if using butter, store in refrigerator once cooled).

Bertrand Denzler & ONCEIM - Morph

(ccs 37)

Morph is another piece that is described by Denzler as a "pseudo-drone" which makes it a companion piece to Horns 1.2, the two being issued together by Confront in their appealingly distinctive square metal box packaging. While there are undoubted similarities between the two albums, the differences between them are more significant. Firstly, ONCEIM is a very different animal to Horns, consisting of thirty players—including Denzler, Gerbal, Laurin and Badaroux—on a variety of instruments taking in piano, accordion, reeds, brass, strings, percussion and electronics. Whereas the quartet Horns was created to play Denzler's pieces, ONCEIM is a well-established ensemble, having been founded in 2012 by Hubbub pianist Frédéric Blondy. The ensemble plays occasional gigs in Paris, at venues such as Église Saint-Merry, where this album was recorded in June 2014. While "Morph" and "Horns 1.2" are clearly based on the same principle, the greater number of players and the greater diversity of instruments in ONCEIM makes its music dramatically different to that of Horns. Its thirty instruments create a fuller, richer soundscape than the four horns while it evolves more slowly as each change by a musician is one thirtieth of the totality rather than a quarter. Consequently, the end result is more truly drone-like than its companion piece. Yes, the two are very different, but they shed light on each other and so are best heard together. The same is true of all three of these releases; together they are part of the evolution of Denzler and so each one is an important piece of an ongoing jigsaw.  (John Eyles)

Bertrand Denzler & Horns - Horns 1.2

(ccs 38)

The quartet Horns is well-named, consisting of two saxophones—Denzler on tenor and Pierre-Antoine Badaroux on alto—plus Fidel Fourneyron on trombone and Louis Laurain on trumpet. Some seven years after Denzler was one quarter of the saxophone quartet that recorded the ground-breaking Propagations (Potlatch, 2007), Horns feels very different but may be just as radical. The quartet was specially created to play the "Horns" pieces written by Denzler. The decision to mix saxophones and brass was a wise one, as this quartet breaks new ground and the timbres of its instruments ensure it avoids comparisons with the Propagations quartet. This album's only track, the forty-minute title composition, is described by Denzler as a "pseudo-drone" piece, with "the overall sound of the ensemble being structured by the decisions the musicians have to take in order to keep this sound alive while moving in a small, pre-established musical perimeter, and the acoustic phenomena resulting from these decisions." In practice, those words translate into a sustained piece to which all four players contribute to keeping the sound alive, subtly altering their contributions as and when they see fit, in order to blend in with the other three. It cannot be called a drone (hence, Denzler's phrase "pseudo-drone") as it never settles down to a steady state but is in a constant state of flux created by every decision made by each player. Those decisions are not entirely free but are constrained by Denzler's composition, with the consequence that the four instruments fit together well, combining into a piece that makes fascinating and satisfying listening. (John Eyles)

“Horns 1.2” is based on the same principle as “Morph” (CCS 37). It’s a “pseudo-drone” piece, the overall sound of the ensemble or orchestra being structured by the decisions the musicians have to take in order to keep this sound alive while moving in a small, pre-established musical perimeter.

The Horns quartet has been specifically created to play the “Horns”-pieces. Since 2013, the ensemble performs different pieces of the “Horns”-series on a regular basis in France. “Horns 1.2” is Horns’ first release.

Recorded by Hideo Ikegami at Kissa Sakaiki, Tokyo on 31 July 2014
Sound Treatment by Taku Unami

Kissa Sakaiki is a café in Tokyo which supports the activities of musicians, dancers or other artists. I have played there many times, presenting a number of performances with musicians and dancers frequently. I have been collaborating with Tetuzi Akiyama as a duo for some time and one day had the idea to further our development by introducing another musician to form a new trio. Ko Ishikawa, a sho player was the first candidate in my mind. Fortunately, Ko agreed to play with us and I arranged a concert at Kissa Sakaiki. Tetuzi and Ko have played together several times previously but that was the first time to play together for Ko and myself. As I had hoped, the gig was successful and fortunately I recorded it. This release on Confront presents the complete document of all the music we played together that evening.

Ist : New York featuring John Zorn

(ccs 40)

Mid-April 2001, Derek Bailey was invited to present a Company event at Tonic, the then home of adventurous music in New York. Besides himself, Derek took with him four other performers from the UK - tap dancer Will Gaines and the acoustic string trio IST, comprising of Rhodri Davies, Simon H. Fell and Mark Wastell. These five were joined for three nights of Company music by New York musicians Joey Baron, John Zorn, Jennifer Choi, Annie Gosfield and Min Xiao-Fen. The three nights of Company proper were preceded by an evening of music showcasing the music of the British based contingent. Bailey performed a fascinating duet with Gaines, followed by a lengthy set from IST.

The music IST performed that evening is presented on this disc in its entirety. Bruce Gallanter, tireless proprietor of famed New York record store Downtown Music Gallery, was in the front row, taping direct onto his handheld recorder. He also recorded each and every night of the Company event, during which IST were paired with John Zorn, for a once only meeting, late in the evening of the second night.

"IST played one of the most intense and balanced sets they've delivered in their four-year existence. The players pushed beyond decency into assaults on their instruments, causing the attentive observer to wince. Mark Wastell digs into his cello body with the end of his bow and leaves a white scar: his playing sears the memory likewise. Rhodri Davies' harp is Bailey's guitar writ large, the sound world of Pierre Boulez shot through with the funk and low-humour repartee of the improviser. The simultaneous crisis and hilarity of Simon Fell's two-bow assault on his instrument is audio-science and Dada in one." (Concert review extract from Derek Bailey And The Story Of Free Improvisation by Ben Watson / Verso Books)

The members of IST lovingly and respectfully dedicate this music to Derek Bailey (1930-2005).

IST also extend warm thanks and appreciation to John Zorn for graciously permitting us to include his contribution.

Rhodri Davis : harp
Simon H. Fell : double bass
Mark Wastell : violoncello
John Zorn : alto saxophone (track 6)

Recorded live in concert at Tonic, Norfolk Street, New York City on 17 & 19 April 2001 by Bruce Gallanter.

Paolo Valladoid & Gary Rouzer - Directions for Viola and Cello

(ccs 41)

These tracks were recording in a large tunnel and its surroundings that is part of a bike path and nature trail in Alexandria, Virginia. Our viola and cello were joined by joggers, birds, traffic, flowing water, a cell phone, insects, and bicycles to create the music. We played for an hour, until it got dark and we could stand the biting bugs no longer. No further editing, processing, or post production was done other than fade in and fade out.

Recorded in Barcelona on 20 May 2013

Thaumatrope: a card with different pictures on either side, which, when the card is twirled rapidly, appear to blend into one.

For John Ayrton Paris is the discographic debut of Taumatrop, a duo formed in the year 2013 by Ferran Fages and Eduard Márquez. During the months of March, April and May 2013, Taumatrop worked on the construction of long, dronic pieces (initially with guitar and ultimately with electronic devices), in which the intention was to produce slow and intense crescendos. For John Ayrton Paris is one of the most significant pieces of this prolific research phase.

James Weeks - mural

(ccs 47)

James Weeks' mural is an extended work for two quartets of voices, a contemplation of our embeddedness within, and our being-at-one with, the world. Using texts from four different sources - writings of Cage and Pessoa, studies of Vermeer and the birdlife of Gateshead - the music accumulates brick-by-brick, reflecting the way we construct and enclose ourself within the spaces we live in, both interior and exterior.

Performed by EXAUDI directed by James Weeks.

Quartet 1:

Juliet Fraser, Cathy Bell, Stephen Jeffes, Jimmy Holliday.

Quartet 2:

Amanda Morrison, Tom Williams, Jonathan Bungard, Jonathan Saunders.

Recorded at City University, London, March-April 2014.

Sandy Ewen & Damon Smith - Valle de Mexico

Sandy and I stared working on our duo music shortly after I moved to Houston, Texas from California in 2010, as well as the duo music it became the core of several important projects with musicians such as Keith Rowe, Weasel Walter, Roscoe Mitchell, Jaap Blonk & Chris Cogburn. This concert was part a series called "Desbordamientos" at Cine Tonalá, in Mexico City, Mexico curated by Fernando Vigueras & Chris Cogburn pairing improvised music concerts while screening Derek Bailey's four part series on improvisation. Days before, Sandy & I played in the home of a favorite writer of mine, Octavio Paz. The Album and track titles are taken from his poem, Valle De México. (Damon Smith, March 2015)

Matilda Rolfsson / Richard Sanderson / Mark Wastell - Live at l'klectik

(ccs 46)

Richard Sanderson : amplified melodeon, dictaphones & small percussion
Mark Wastell : tam-tam, shruti box
Matilda Rolfsson : percussion

Recorded by Adrian Northover at The Horse Improv Club, l'Klectic, Lamberth, London on 28th April 2015

This was my first trip to series of improvised music curated by Sue Lynch at The Horse at Cafe I'Klectik in SE London. What a treat! The evening opened with a sensitive and controlled duo of Hutch Demouilpied (trumpet, flute), Keisuke Matsui (guitar, electronics) this was followed by an intense and beautiful trio of Maggie Nichols (vocals), Caroline Kraabel (alto saxophone) and Charlotte Hug (viola, voice).

This I thought a very hard performance to follow. But the trio of Richard Sanderson (amplified melodeon, dictaphones and small percussion), Mark Wastell (tam-tam, shruti box) and Matilda Rolfsson (percussion) captured all that lay still in the air and produced a set of more, controlled, sensitive, beautiful and creative music.

At times it was hard to exactly locate where the sounds emerged from as the melodeon clicked to the drone of cymbals pulled across the surface of a drum and the tam tam shimmered in response to electronic sound boxes. At one point a small cowbell signalled the music to develop in a new direction and then again small sounds of stones striking together and then hitting the wooden rim of the drum ushered in the fuller overtones of the gong against repetitive figures on the melodeon that rose to complete the piece. As I left familiar words, on the outside wall of the cafe, reminded me as long as I listen and “gaze on Waterloo sunset I am in paradise”.
(Stuart Wilding).

Jason Kahn - For Voice

Come experience a unique Shabbat service of Sacred Hebrew Chant.  We open our hearts and create the mood for Shabbat with a musical practice that is easy to experience and easy to join in. Prayers are adapted to Hebrew mantras.  Through repetition and singing, one can enter meditative states of devotion and connection to the Divine.  For more information, contact Gayanne Geurin

Meditation and Mussar - Catch your breath and hold it. Join us once a month before Shabbat services for an hour program that incorporates text study and contemplative practice. We typically meet the first Friday of each month, but please check the calendar to confirm.

Mussar is the Jewish path to character development – a Mensch curriculum .  Mussar teaches us to take the measure of our soul traits like compassion, greed, courage, humility, anger, and generosity and then determine in which direction to turn in our actions so as to live up to our own high ethical standards.
