SSH is a way to connect to and control your OT-2 over the command line. It's required for some troubleshooting and advanced tasks.

This guide will walk you through setting up SSH for the first time. There are two parts to the process: installing SSH on your computer, and configuring your OT-2 to accept SSH connections from your computer.

You will create a special pair of files called an SSH key pair. The key pair comprises a private key, which remains on your computer, and a public key, which you will copy to your OT-2.

Setup will require a USB connection to your OT-2. After setup is complete, you will also be able to connect to your OT-2 with SSH over Wi-Fi.

This guide applies to robot server versions 3.16.0 and later.

Install prerequisites

You may need to install two small third-party tools:

  • OpenSSH, the SSH implementation that we recommend.

  • cURL, a tool to send simple network requests, which we need for setup.

On macOS

OpenSSH and cURL are both already installed by default on macOS.

On Linux

OpenSSH and cURL might be installed by default, depending on your distribution. If they're not, use your distribution's package manager to install them (for instance, sudo apt install ssh curl ).

On Windows 10

Microsoft provides OpenSSH as a separately installable Windows component.

Open Settings. Go to Apps > Apps and Features > Manage Optional Features. Scan the list to see if OpenSSH Client is already there. If it's missing, at the top of the page, select Add a feature, locate OpenSSH Client, and install it.

You don't need to install cURL on Windows; a different tool will replace it.

Open the command line

Setup will take place over the command line. Don't worry if you've never used it before – we will walk you through it!

Open a new PowerShell window (if you're using Windows 10) or a new Terminal window (if you're using Linux or macOS).

A note on copying and pasting commands

You should copy and paste the commands you see in this guide instead of trying to type them out yourself.

However, copying and pasting works a little differently on the command line. The usual Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V keyboard shortcuts will do something else!

Instead, to paste commands, do this:

  • On Linux or macOS, right-click inside the Terminal window and select Paste.

  • On Windows, right-click the title bar of the PowerShell window and select Edit > Paste.

Generate a key pair

1. Run ssh-keygen

Having installed OpenSSH and opened a command line, you will have access to the ssh-keygen command. Paste into the window:

ssh-keygen -f ot2_ssh_key

And press Enter.

2. Enter a passphrase

The program will ask you to choose a passphrase. You will use this passphrase later when you connect to your OT-2 over SSH.

Providing a passphrase is optional, but we strongly recommend it. (Otherwise, anyone who has access to the file on your computer could also access your OT-2.)

When you type in the passphrase, your typing won't show up. Don't worry – it's just being hidden for security! Press Enter when you've finished, and then enter the passphrase again to confirm it.

Warning: If you lose this passphrase, you won't be able to recover it, and you'll have to start this guide all over to connect to your OT-2. We recommend storing your passphrase somewhere secure, like a password manager.

3. Your new SSH key pair

After entering a passphrase, you should see something like this:

Two files will have been created in your home directory:

  • ot2_ssh_key, which will stay on your computer.

  •, which will be copied onto your OT-2.

Before continuing, make sure those files exist. Enter:

That should show something like this:

If you see something similar, congratulations! Your new SSH key is ready to install.

Install the key on your OT-2

Now that you've created an SSH key pair, you'll install the public key to your OT-2. This will tell the OT-2 to accept connections from the matching private key, on your computer.

1. Connect via USB

To show that you have physical access to the OT-2, you must connect to it via USB for this part. A Wi-Fi connection will not work. Plug in the USB cable, and confirm that your OT-2 is shown with a USB icon in the Opentrons App. You may need to refresh the list.

2. Find your OT-2's wired IP address

In the Opentrons App, find and take note of the part of your robot's Wired IP.

In the example above, the part that we care about is

3. Upload your public key

Paste the following command, but don't press Enter yet – we will have to modify it slightly.

On Linux and macOS

curl \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d "{\"key\":\"$(cat\"}" \

On Windows 10

@{key = Get-Content | Out-String} | ConvertTo-Json | Invoke-WebRequest -Method Post -ContentType 'application/json' -Uri ROBOT_IP:31950/server/ssh_keys

Use the arrow keys to move to the part of the command that says ROBOT_IP. Replace ROBOT_IP  with the actual wired IP address you found above.

Your command line should look something like this, on Linux and macOS:

Or like this, on Windows 10:

Press Enter to run the command. It should not take more than a second. If all goes well, you should see a response containing the phrase "Added key."

Resolving "'{key' is not recognized" errors

If you see an error message like this, you're using Command Prompt instead of PowerShell. Open a PowerShell window and try the command again.

Resolving "The response content cannot be parsed because the Internet Explorer engine is not available" errors

If you see an error message like this, open Internet Explorer, go through its first-time setup, and then run the command again. PowerShell relies on Internet Explorer to configure some network settings.

Connect to your OT-2 with SSH

Congratulations! You've completed the first-time setup, and you're ready to finally connect.

Further steps (optional)

Enabling SSH Access to Multiple OT-2s

If you have additional OT-2s to connect to with SSH, you don't need to duplicate this entire process for each one. Instead, you can have each of your robots share a copy of the same public key. For each additional robot, follow just the steps under Installing The Key On Your OT-2.

Using the Same Key Pair for Multiple Computers

If you have additional computers with which you want to connect to your OT-2, you don't need to duplicate this entire process on each one.

By copying your SSH private key to those computers, you will share your access to the robot with them.

  1. In your home folder, locate the file ot2_ssh_key. Be careful not to use the file ending in .pub! On Windows, file extensions may be hidden, making it difficult to distinguish between the two files. To enable them, follow: Display file extensions on Windows 7 and later.

  2. Send ot2_ssh_key to each additional computer, by email, USB drive, or any other method. Place it in your home folder on each additional computer.

  3. On each additional computer, follow just the steps under Installing Prerequisites, above.

Automatically scaling and deploying the agent

If you are automatically scaling your servers using Amazon Auto Scaling or some other automated method, you want to have the agent automatically installed and to have monitoring start automatically. How to do this depends on how you're controlling your servers.

Installing the agent

Use our official Puppet and Chef modules to automatically install the agent and register new servers through our API.

There are several unofficial playbooks created by customers.

There is official integration into the Server Density API.

Shell script

Our agent installer script will download the agent and use our API to register the server for you.

Automatically setting up alerts

Using group alerts you can have new servers inherit alerts automatically.

You could also use our API to create alerts through your own code.

Removing servers when they shut down

Our API lets you query it to find servers based on their hostname, so you can then call the delete method to remove the server when it's terminated. This will stop all alerts and remove the server from your billing.

Missions management

Updated 3 months ago by Ighor Melo

Through missions it becomes possible to direct content or courses to either a particular audience or to everyone with access. If you would like to see a broader article about missions before starting building your own, click here.

On our reports you'll find all relevant information about the progress of the user in a mission, such as: start date, completion, grades on activities, time until completion, among others.

Progress checkmarks appear as the user concludes the contents in the mission (steps). In addition, you can set a minimum percentage to pass exams or activities and choose the number of retries and the time interval between them.

The contents that can be part of a mission are very diverse: PDF, videos, SCORM, Applique courses, Typeforms, exams, texts, contents with activities, among others.

Here's a step-by-step made to help you build a mission and clarify any doubts. =)

Missions management

The access to the missions manager is made on Skore for students' sidebar. Thus, if you're still on Skore Admin, click on Try Skore for students:

Then, click on Missions Management:

You'll be directed to the manager's main page, where you'll see the button to create a new mission and below will be the list of created missions, where you can edit, duplicate, archive and publish or unpublish each one.

Only users with an admin profile can manage missions. The rest of the users can only access them to consume the content - experts and leaders cannot set up missions in Skore. However, leaders can check the progress of their followers on missions in the reports tab.

Creating a new mission

After clicking on Create new mission (Criar nova missão), you will be directed to the mission configuration window.

This window will be divided into 04 tabs: (a) General information (Informações gerais), (b) Prerequisite (Pré-requisito), (c) Public (Público) & (d) Content (Conteúdo).

General information:

In this page you can insert a name, description and a cover image for the mission.

Beyond that you can define a Due Date and a Consumption type. If you choose a due date, the student will see a visual alert with the defined date. It's important to know that choosing this option will not block enrollment in the mission, even after the date. There are three options to choose from:

  1. No due date: No date - the user can interact with this mission at any time;
  2. Specific date and time: The administrator sets a specific date and time. Attention: setting a specific date and time serves only as a visual alert to users and not as a mission block, that is, if the date has already passed, the mission remains available to the user and they can enroll normally;
  3. X days after enrollment in the mission: The configured time will be counted from the moment the user enrolls in the mission - in this option, it is also a visual alert and not a block.

There's an example on the image below: the mission on the left has a due date, notice the yellow label that is shown on the mission's cover. The label will be green if the due date is still far away (over 3 days), red if the due date has passed and yellow if the due date is in between.

Last but not least, there's the consumption type, where you'll define if the student can consume the steps freely (in any order) or if it needs to be step by step, following the sequence in which the steps are ordered (for example: in order to access step 2, the student has to finish step 1, and so on...).

This is how sequential comsumption looks like:

After setting up all the information on the first tab, click in Save (Salvar) at the bottom of the page:

In this tab you can define whether the enrollment on the mission must depend on the completion of another mission to be unlocked for the user.

Just select which mission will depend on which one(s) and click the Add (Adicionar) button.

An example of using this feature is: a new user will only be able to access the X, Y and Z missions, if they complete the Onboarding mission.

In this tab, you'll set up which audience will have access to this mission.

It is standard that, if you choose not to configure a specific audience, the mission will automatically be available for all users.

If you choose to set a specific audience, the mission will only be accessible to those users.

In case you want to make the mission available to one or many specific users, simply look for the user(s) on the right side and click on Add user (Adicionar usuário) and if you want to restrict the mission to one or many teams, look for the team(s) on the left side and click on Add team (Adicionar time).

In this tab, we choose which contents (already added to Skore) we want to become steps of the mission.

It is also possible to create stages (with one or more steps) within each mission and separate them by subject, for example. This makes your mission more attractive and organized for the user, creating a better experience.

A good practice here is not to insert a lot of stages and a lot of steps as this makes the mission tiresome for the user and ends up not getting the engagement we want.

Click on Manage stages (Gerenciar etapas) to create and edit stages.

To include new steps:

  1. Click on Create new step (Criar novo Passo);
  2. Select the stage in which this step will be contained;
  3. Select what you want to include in this step: Here, you can include a single content, an entire section or an entire space. In the option of including a space or section, the platform will take a 'still picture' of all the contents that are inside the space or section at that moment and pull these contents to the mission!
  4. Make reference to where this content is within the Skore. You must refer to the group, the space and the section where the content is.
Hint: Missions pull contents from spaces and turns them into steps. To make it easier, you can create a space in your Skore workspace and add only contents that will be part of missions and set the permissions to match the audience of the mission.
If new content is added to the space (or section) after setting up the mission, this will not automatically reflect in the mission! In this case, the administrator must manually add these new contents to the mission, creating new steps.

The next screen will pop out and you only need to follow the order to create the first step of your mission:

  1. Select the Stage;
  2. Select the Group;
  3. Select the Space;
  4. Select the Section;
  5. And finally select the content that will become a step.

Now, repeat this process until you included all steps that will be part of this mission.

Individual setup of each step:

As soon as you add your first step, this is how it shows:

You can reorder the steps however you lick. Simply click on Order steps (Ordenar passos), and drag them around to order as you wish.

After you add the first step, it will be selected as in the printscreen above and you'll have more options rolling down the page.

Here you can edit your step cover image, name and description.

Hint: Use canva.com to help you create beautiful cards. The dimensions you need are show right below the card model. =)

The controller can be used to limit the user's access to the step. There are the following possibilities:

  1. Anytime (A qualquer momento) - the user can consume this step at any time;
  2. X days after mission enrollment (X Dias a partir da matrícula na missão) - after the user enrolls in the mission (by clicking on the START button), the step will only be released after X days;
  1. Date and time (Data e hora específica) - you define the date and time that the user will be allowed to access the step. For example: Available at 10/12/2019 - 08h47 a.m.

After setting up the controller, steps will be blocked for the user until the time comes for them to be unlocked. On the image below you can see how the student will see the step, with a "lock" showing them that they can't access it yet.

There are three types of success criteria in a mission step:

  • Access: Simply accessing the content marks it complete;
  • Consumption: The user must consume at least 80% of the content for it to be marked as completed. This criterion is recommended for video and PDF content;
  • Approval: If your step has an activity or an exam, you can define the success criterion based on the percentage of answers that the user gets right:
    • Percentage 0% - The user does not need to reach a minimum percentage to pass the exam, but needs to finish the activities (all questions) to mark the progress in the step;
    • This criterion can also be used in contents with Typeform forms (properly integrated) and in SCORM courses. This way, the user will need to complete the content to mark the progress in the step;
    • Percentage greater than 1% - The user must pass the minimum percentage (that you configure) to mark the progress in the step;
    • Configuration of the number of retries + configuration of the interval between retries: you can determine that, if the user does not reach the minimum percentage for approval, they can redo the activity X times or unlimited times;
    • It is possible to configure the time interval between retries (in minutes). If this is not needed, just enter '0' and click to update the step.

After configuring everything relative to the step, ALWAYS click on Update step (Atualizar passo).

After finishing adding your stages and steps, check if you'll make any changes and if steps are in desired order. If everything is ok, then click on Save (Salvar), the green button on top right corner:

After you save, you'll be transferred back to the first page where all your missions will be listed.

Now you just have to click Publish (Publicar) for the mission to be available for its audience:

In addition to the option to Publish and Edit, there is also the option to Duplicate (Duplicar) a mission. This feature exists as a way to assist the administrator in creating a mission that is similar or equal to another.

When the administrator selects the Duplicate option, a new mission is created with the same steps and success criteria. This new mission can be edited and then made available to users.

Any change made (deleting, editing or adding steps) on an already published mission will NOT be applied to users that have already completed this mission.

How to delete a step?

Just click on the content tab Conteúdos, select the step you want to delete and erase it by clicking on Delete (Apagar).

How will the mission be shown to the user?

After finishing everything and publishing your mission, it will be ready for user access and look like this, pretty gorgeous:

Doing the mission (user point of view)

To start the mission, the user must click on the Start button:

After clicking on the button, the user will see the mission's due date, number of steps, progress bar and message of mandatory consumption:

Rolling the screen, the user will have the steps unlocked and can start consuming them (freely or sequentially, according to the configuration you made when setting up the mission):

Upon completing the mission, the user receives the completion message, along with the completion date:

That's it! Now just create more missions to develop, train and engage your team!!!

What is 2FA and why is it important?

This guide will show you how to set up the 2FA feature on your Surfshark account and its use cases.

What is 2FA?

2FA (also known as Two-Factor Authentication) is a way to add an extra layer of security to your account. If you enable it, it is no longer enough to enter a password to log into an account.

We, as a cyber-security company, do everything to keep your information safe. Therefore, we have implemented the option of 2FA at Surfshark to protect your accounts.

With 2FA enabled, you will receive a temporary code to your application or email inbox (you can choose the method yourself). Entering the code will grant access to your account. This method prevents your account from being compromised. Even if someone has stolen your password, they will not be able to log in without the temporary code.

2FA use cases

Two-factor authentication is vital for bank accounts, social media profiles, and other platforms where it is crucial to protect personal data. We recommend setting up 2FA on all of your accounts so that you would remain the only person who has access to log in in all situations.

How to start using 2FA

Here is our quick tutorial on how to set up 2FA on your Surfshark account.

If you are sharing your Surfshark account with family members, you can still enable 2FA. Here is how to do that.

If you have any further questions, our customer success team will help you 24/7 over live chat or email.

In 1950, George Yentzen and James ‘Cowboy’ Fernandez, designed and patented the first double reed duck call with its reeds joined together by rivets.

Cowboy won the Worlds Championship in Stuttgart, Arkansas in 1959 using the double reed Yentzen Caller.

Cowboy was the first one to use a double reed duck call to win a World Championship.

George Yentzen

There were quite a number of duck calls made across Texas, some local, and others that grew in to notable commercial manufacturers, like Johnny Stewart Game Calls, based in Waco. But if asked to name the best known duck call makers in Texas, most people would say George Yentzen and Cowboy Fernandez.

Sure Shot Duck Calls. George Yentzen in the 1940’s was one of the best known men in Jefferson County. Yentzen the baker cut his first black walnut duck call on a band saw on his back porch in Nederland in the early 1950’s, and with his young assistant James ‘Cowboy’ Fernandez, designed and patented the first double reed duck call with its reeds joined together by rivets. Yentzen double and triple reed calls were to dominate the local and national market for the next 20 years.

Cowboy’s parents had come from Spain, first settling in Savannah, Georgia then Texas. In 1930, the first of family born in the Lone Star state was given the nickname ‘Cowboy’ in honor of their adopted state.

Yentzen’s protégée was just out of the service, and with a young family, worked a full-time job and taking night classes. Of Yentzen, Cowboy says “He treated me like his own son.” After he died in 1957, “his wife called me. ‘Cowboy come see me.’” That visit, in 1959, formed the nucleus of the explosion in Yentzen duck calls and its successor company Sure Shot Game Calls. Cowboy remembers the early years after he took over the Yentzen business. “In the first year, I made 55 calls and sold all 55 of them. The next year I made 555. [From] January 20th to December the 4th, it took me all that time in the garage, one [call] at a time. I sold all 555.”

Cowboy entered calling contests across the Gulf Coast with his Yentzen calls, and at first didn’t win many. Coming back from the International’s in Crowley Louisiana with his friends in 1959, he wondered aloud how he missed the finals. “Harold [Drummond] told me ‘you’re not the hitting that call’. And he showed me. The next day I won the Gulf Coast championship in Port Arthur, went on to win the Texas Open several times, and the regional in Beaumont several times. The following year I won the World Duck Calling Championship in Stuttgart Arkansas, and ended up winning the International three times.” Cowboy’s Yentzen calls in the 1960’s did not jut compete in the market, they dominated it. Charles Stepan of Port Arthur won the World Championship in 1960 with a Yentzen call. Billie Domingue held a five-year winning streak in the women’s division of the World Contest with her Yentzen. Bob Brister used a Yentzen to capture the Houston Sportsmen’s Club contest.7 Yentzen calls were used to replicate mallards by 28 out of 42 contestants in the Oklahoma State Duck Calling Contest in 1966, and four out of five of the top winners were blowing Yentzen’s.8 The name became so well known that when Dr. Paul Webber taught classes waterfowl hunting classes at Alvin Junior College, each student was required to bring a Sure Shot double or triple reed call.

Geek Girl Goals: or 6 ways to grow as a reader in 2019

I’m just going to be completely honest with you. Ready? Inch a little closer, let me whisper in your ear.

I’m not good at New Year’s Resolutions.

I mean, I’m absolutely wretched at them. I break them mere hours after the ball drops in Times Square.

You want to know what my resolution was last year? To wish all my Facebook friends a happy birthday on their actual birthday. I lasted 6 days.

See? Wretched.

BUT when I determine to achieve some geek girl goal (ie. write a novel, read every Steinbeck novel in 6 months, memorize Kate’s monologue from Taming of the Shrew) I’m SO ON THAT!

So, I decided that for 2019 I would resolve to grow as a reader.

Living a literary life take building some brainiac muscles, but I think I’m up for that challenge.

Want to join me?

Fantastic. Here are some habits we can practice in order to grow as readers in the New Year.

  1. Less screen time, more page time: Blerg! Don’t you hate it when you realize that you have spent an hour toggling between Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter just to have seen the same old things over and over? How about the amount of time it took to binge watch this or that show? I don’t know about you, but I, for one, am going to spend less time with my eyes on a screen and more time with my nose in a book. It’s okay to log off, close the lap top, put the phone across the room. I like to use an app blocking program like 1Focus to keep me honest.
  2. Read books about — well — reading: 2018 brought us a few books about refining our reading lives. How wonderful! Karen Swallow Prior’s On Reading Well is a literary tour with many recommendations. I’d Rather Be Reading by Anne Bogel (of Modern Mrs. Darcy) reminds us of what made us fall in love with reading in the first place. Check out these books and be inspired in your reading!
  3. Challenge yourself: Do you struggle to find new-to-you books to read? Do you find that you easily get stuck in a rut? Why not try a reading challenge? Anne Bogel recently announced her 2019 challenge complete with free printables. You can also check your local library or indie book store.
  4. Consider adding a few classics to your list: The literary world has a rich history that is full of beautiful writing. John Steinbeck, Alexandre Dumas, Jane Austen, Edith Wharton, Kurt Vonnegut, Frederick Douglass, Flannery O’Connor, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright, Harper Lee, Shusaku Endo…I could go on all day. There is a classic for every taste. Not sure which would be best for you? Leave a comment below to let me know a book you LOVE and I’ll try to hook you up with an excellent classical match.
  5. Track your reading: Looking back at all you’ve read is quite satisfying. I love remembering all the wonderful books I’ve enjoyed (and some I didn’t like all that much) at the end of each year. Lately, I’ve come to love tracking my reading on GoodReads and BookBub. A bonus is having the opportunity to connect with other readers and get recommendations. Let’s connect on those sites!
  6. Join a book club: Book clubs are great for breaking out a reading rut, getting new perspectives on literature, and providing deadlines for when a book needs to be finished. Plus there’s usually snacks involved. What’s not to love?

I can’t wait to hear how your reading lives are going in 2019. If you’d like to keep up with what I’m reading, you can follow me on BookBub, GoodReads, and Instagram. It would be fun to follow each other in our literary endeavors!

Happy Reading!

8 Comments on “Geek Girl Goals: or 6 ways to grow as a reader in 2019

  1. We didn’t wait for the New Year to start. I am reading Anne of Green Gables with our 7 year old daughter. It is an illustrated version from Usborne books, she received it as a gift for Christmas. Last night our 11 year old son snuck in and was listening too! I love that it is building their vocabulary with words and phrases that they might not hear otherwise. The writing is lyrical and can be quite hard to read aloud at times!

  2. Off to look for an app-blocking program for android. And this is GREAT stuff. Definitely using GoodReads, and am ON BookBub – need to look into it more and ways to use it.

  3. I am following you on all three of those sites. I now have over three hundred books on my to be read list! Your recommendations are marked. I figure if I love your books so much I will like what you are reading as well. I do not know how you do all you do and still have time to read! My New Year’s resolve is to read more. So I shall turn off the screen and put my nose in the books. I only read 65 books last year. I will see how much I can surpass that this year.

    • 65 books is amazing! I managed 56 and am glad for it. I hope I don’t lead you astray with any of my book recommendations. I have a wacky taste in books (meaning that I love stories all across the board). Happy reading, Karen!

Saturday Showcase - Flowers

 Happy Saturday!  The whole design team at the Funkie Junkie Boutique Challenge blog is sharing a special Saturday Showcase!  Everyone is creating a tag with flowers to share with you.  Hop over here to see all the wonderful inspiration.
The challenge was to be inspired by flowers and create a tag.  I love these flower stamps by Dina Wakely as they are outline stamps and you can use different prints, stamps, or coloring to fill the inside of the flowers.

 I knew I wanted to use up some of my index cards from the Positively Pensive challenge. I had created probably 30 index card backgrounds.  :)  I don't usually put all my scraps up on the blog unless they end up in a project or have some type of technique.

I had spent some time mixing paints (new dylusion paints and distress ink paints) on my craft mat  and then picking up the paint colors on index cards.   I swirled together the colors and then used an acrylic block to ink it up and put it on the cards or I placed the cards directly into the paint on my craft mat.

For this index card, I painted the background with a bright pink.  I let it dry completely and then painted over with a stencil partially using a light orange color.  After that dried I outlined the painted area with a ball point pen on some of it to give it extra texture.

I used all my different painted backgrounds to create my flowers and leaves. I stamped the flowers and petals on different sections of the painted cards and cut them out to layer them.

Here are the remnants of the petals and leaves stamping and cutting. I was using up almost every piece of about 4 index cards of paint.

After that it was a matter of just putting the petals on a base flower. I used glue dots to attach the base of each petal to layer them and create a 3D flower.  I then used another inky background as the base for my flowers.  I stamped the flowers onto the background to give me a placement and then built out the flowers.

I finished the tag with the lovely sentiment that comes with the stamp set and stamped it on the same background as the tag and cut it out and layered it in.

Thanks for stopping by to see the flowers!

Electronic Disco Music Diva Donna Summer Dies at 63

Written by v on May 17, 2012 – 11:00 pm -

In sad news, Donna Summer lost her life to lung cancer earlier today at the age of 63. Born into an African-American family from Boston Massachusetts, she started singing in church choir groups before progressing into musicals, psychedelic rock and finally achieving great fame in the disco music era of the 70’s.

For me, her greatest work was from her collaboration with Italian producer and electronic music pioneer Giorgio Moroder, with whom she made her classic and highly influential hit “I Feel Love” [1977] and the lesser known “With Your Love” from the “Thank God It’s Friday” soundtrack [1978].

I Feel Love:

With Your Love:

Her other big hits include “Love to Love You Baby” [1975], “Hot Stuff” [1979], “Last Dance” [1978] and the post-disco “She Works Hard for the Money” [1983]

The Fairlight CMI

Written by v on February 14, 2012 – 12:29 pm -

Fairlight CMI Series II

The Fairlight CMI (Computer Musical Instrument) was the world’s first polyphonic digital sampling synthesiser. It was developed in Australia by Peter Vogel and Kim Ryrie and first released in 1979.

It could record natural sounds from a microphone, then allow the user to view and modify the waveforms on a monitor using a light pen. Sounds could also be constructed from scratch by drawing a waveform on the screen. There was also a large library of pre-recorded samples on floppy disks, which became staples of 80’s pop music.

To understand how revolutionary the Fairlight CMI was at that time, most electronic musicians were still using analogue synthesizers that required manual patching of cables or setting lots of switches and dials.

The Series I Fairlight was equipped with a 73-key velocity-sensitive keyboard and supported 8 voices, each with a sample memory of 16kB, allowing sounds to be sampled at 16kHz with 8 bits of resolution. By the mid-80’s, later models had increased this to allow 16-bit sampling and higher sample rates.

Due to its use of cutting edge technology, the Fairlight CMI was very expensive, with a base price around $25,000 in 1980, and was only affordable by big-name musicians, production studios and universities. Famous users of the Fairlight include Peter Gabriel, Stevie Wonder, Kate Bush and Thomas Dolby.

Here in Australia, the Fairlight was famously used to create the sounds on John Farnham’s hit “You’re the Voice”, released on his “Whispering Jack” album in 1986.

Despite the high price of the Fairlight CMI, it remained popular long after cheaper alternatives like the E-mu Emulator and the Ensoniq Mirage entered the market, and has left a lasting legacy.

Here are my favourite videos of the Fairlight CMI in action

Peter Vogel and Michael Carlos demonstrate the Fairlight CMI on ABC TV in 1980

Art of Noise – Moments in Love

The “Orchestra Hit” sample is a classic sound:

Herbie Hancock demonstrates the Fairlight CMI on Sesame Street

Herbie actually demonstrates quite a few of the capabilities of the CMI, including Waveform decomposition and vocoding. Who says Sesame Street is just for children?

Findings of the Mussalaha Peace Mission to Syria

Syria 2013

The Concluding Declaration of the Mussalaha Delegation to Syria – Friday, May 10th 2013

by Father Dave Smith

Syria exhibits a massive and terrible breakdown of human decency and respect. There are millions of innocent victims and many individual acts of heroism, but amongst the powerful we see an appalling degree of violence, hypocrisy and corruption. Tens of thousands have died, millions have been displaced, and nearly the entire population of 23 million lives in fear. The international community has stated and we confirm that the Syrian tragedy is possibly the worst since World War II.

States, political organisations and combatants are the primary causes of the misery, which they pursue for their own advantage, sewing terror and manipulating the suffering to reflect badly on their opponents while all too often refusing to compromise or even talk to each other.

These are the findings of our delegation, consisting of 16 human rights activists from seven countries. Over the course of nine days we visited refugee camps, affected communities, religious leaders, combatants, government representatives and many others – perpetrators and victims – in Syria and Lebanon.

We were already horrified by what we knew before coming, but what we have learned as a delegation brings shame to almost everyone involved.

We call on the international community to protect the territorial integrity of Syria and to respect the fundamental rights of Syria as a sovereign state. We deplore any intent to breach the integrity of Syria’s frontiers or to damage the unity and rich diversity of the Syrian people.

We recognise the legitimacy of the aspirations of the Syrian citizens for change, reforms, the eradication of State corruption and the implementation of a democratic life that respects and protects the fundamental rights of all citizens and minorities but we believe that effective and lasting reforms an only be achieved through non-violent means.

Our primary appeal is that all countries stop their interference in Syrian affairs – more specifically, that they halt the supply of arms and foreign combatants to both sides of the conflict. If foreign countries agree to eliminate the influx of arms and fighters, we are confident that Syrians can find their own solutions to their problems and achieve reconciliation.

We unequivocally oppose all aggression and foreign intervention against Syria under any justification. At the same time we appeal to all parties, including the government, to show restraint in response to the provocations that aim to escalate the violence and broaden the conflict.

We consider it beyond debate that the Syrian people have the right to determine their own government and their own future. Foreign interference is currently preventing the Syrian people from exercising their right to self-determination. We are concerned that such pernicious intervention is tearing apart the fabric of the country itself, with long-term consequences that can only be imagined.

The cautionary example of Iraq serves to remind us of the dire consequences of such international folly. This humanitarian crisis is already spilling into neighbouring countries. A collapse of Syrian society though will destabilise the entire region. We appeal to the international community to show that it can learn from history and make better choices in the case of Syria, which will spare further tragedy for the courageous Syrian people.

Secondly, we appeal to the international media to stop the flow of misinformation regarding the Syrian conflict. We believe that every Syrian, both in and outside the country, should be given the right to be heard and we do not see this reflected in the international coverage of this crisis.

Thirdly, while we entirely support the embargo on arms, we ask the international community to review and reconsider the crippling sanctions that are taking such a heavy toll on ordinary Syrian people.

Fourthly, we urge the international community to take seriously the vast number of refugees and persons who have been internally displaced by this conflict.

We look towards the cessation of all violence when these people might be allowed to return to their homes. In the meantime, however, humanitarian aid efforts must be expanded to meet the basic needs of such persons.

Our earlier report, the “Declaration of the Mussalaha Delegation to Syria on the Refugee Situation in Lebanon”, outlines the inadequacies of current refugee programmes. We appreciate that various government authorities have attempted to respond to the refugee crisis. We recognise though that the International Committee of the Red Cross and its affiliates, as well as other humanitarian agencies, must be allowed to set up centres inside Syria to care for internally displaced persons, so as to prevent these displaced persons from fleeing to foreign countries.

This work requires immediate and significant funding by the international community. While this will be a costly undertaking, we believe that the costs will in fact be only a fraction of the amount currently being spent on destroying Syria.

Finally, we appeal to all parties involved to put an end to all forms of violence and human rights violations – actions that target and terrorise innocent civilians and prisoners, indiscriminate terrorist attacks on the civilian population, the unjustified systematic targeting of vital state infrastructures, civilian installations, industrial zones, factories, communication facilities, agriculture reserves, health centres and hospitals, schools and universities, and religious and cultural landmarks – all of which results in the transformation of the residential areas into war zones, resulting in the flight of the civilian population.

We likewise oppose the use of religious decrees that encourage, trivialise and justify barbarity, rape and terrorism. We appeal to the entire religious community to call the faithful to nonviolence and peacemaking, and to reject all forms of violence and discrimination.  We express our admiration and respect for the many Syrian religious leaders who have refused to endorse the use of violence and have dedicated their lives to working for a peaceful solution to this conflict, and we appeal specifically for the immediate release of the two abducted Christian bishops, both of whom were dedicated to the work of peace and reconciliations, as we appeal for the release of all Christian and Muslim clerics and other abducted Syrian citizens.

We conclude by commending the work of Mother Agnes Mariam and the Mussalaha initiative. We have witnessed their work inside diverse communities across Syria. We offer our unequivocal and ongoing support to these brave people, and we commit ourselves to continue to work alongside them until Syria is truly at peace.

    Syria is not the worse human tragedy since world war 2 ,by any remote stretch of imagination. In North korea war 3 millions koreans killed. and more wounded. Vietnam war about same. IRaq War 1 millions killed about 3mill displaced. Rwanda civil war ,800,000 killed in just 3 months and 2 millions wounded some seriously. They blame the Syrian gov for the crisis in Syria ,which is 100% incited from US and Gulf states money and weapons. So called human rights activities all are just a bunch of propaganda hypocrites and majority funded by NATO in order to 'de-legitimize' governments for using their security and army to defend their country. Will not be surprise if their goals was to unite with western calls for Assad to leave. Not a single mention of the west funding of thousands terrorist inside syria. every syrian know this. Going to Syria and not telling anything about foreign countries sending terrorist to fight in Syria is lying people about the source of the problem. They also talk about corruption as if any gov in the world do not have problem with this. human rights groups are the reason ,that Syria have sanctions that affect the civilians lives they so much want to 'protect'. hypocrites.

Honey Bee Tea

Switching gears from last week’s casual and blindingly colorful post

The deck is set for a ladies tea in lavender and white, starting with a full length round lavender tablecloth from LinenTablecloth.com.

The inspiration for this tablescape came from these cool Mary Lake-Thompson flour sack towels I found at Home Finishings in Lee’s Summit, MO. I’ve often used towels as napkins, and these were perfect!

White lacy chargers from Michaels, lavender embossed lace dinner plates by Matceramica, and Pier 1 “Doily” salad plate are joined by “Royal Danish” sterling silver.

Each guest has a lovely take home favor of tea in a lavender organza bag with a an Austrian crystal-tipped silver spoon attached.

Austere white teacups and saucers are from Old Time Pottery. A decorated sugar cube and a splash of color from a lemon slice dress it up a bit.

A silver beaded edge 4-tier server filled with a variety of sweets and savories is the primary part of the centerpiece.

Plump, luscious blueberries in a lacy white jardiniere from Hobby Lobby. (Seems I like to use this jardiniere for blueberries. You can also see it used this way in “Blue & White Family Picnic“!)

To mimic the design of the napkins, a small pot of lavender sits atop a delicate lacy white doily. Honestly…when else are you going to use a doily???

The tea/bar cart from our dining room made its way out onto the deck. A cherry wood tea caddy from Bombay Company holds a variety of teabags on the lower shelf.

I stacked silver cake plateaus to display more sweets on the tea cart. Brownies on bottom, petit fours on top with another tiny pot of lavender.

Almost on cue, a tiny butterfly took a rest on top of the white teapot! Rock sugar stirrers are presented in a cream soup cup from Nell Hills. The bee skep honey pot is from Home Goods.

The conversation area is set up to encourage mingling while nibbling and sipping. The coffee table is topped with a vintage white cotton lace-edged runner. Another silver 4-tier dessert tower serves up desserts. It’s not often that I use paper napkins, but for this occasion I wrapped white doily-like paper cocktails napkins around lavender ones for a peekaboo effect.

The shabby chic side table between the settee and arm chairs is set up with crystal sherry service and a few more sweets served up on a silver pedestal.
