RICHARD GALLIANO: Nino Rota

Following his stellar live album of Billie Holiday and Edith Piaf tunes, French-born master accordionist Richard Galliano turns to his Italian roots in a tribute to Nino Rota, marking the great film composer’s centenary in 2011. Captivated by these sumptuous scores ever since he saw La Strada at his local cinema in Nice as a child, Galliano brings the timeless creations of Fellini and Francis Ford Coppola vividly to life in his own jazz-tinged arrangements for quintet.

With idiomatic playing from the band, especially Dave Douglas on trumpet, Rota’s melancholic themes lose none of their original romance and mystique, from The Godfather waltz (played on trombone, surprisingly, by Galliano) to the seductive opening of Amarcord. There are more upbeat and varied offerings: the soloist and his La Strada Quartet glide effortlessly from circus music to lounge, dirge to Latin dance – sometimes, dizzyingly, all in the one track – with a selection of themes and medleys cleverly interwoven to revisit motifs as a composer might do in a single film score.

Aside from the crisp ensemble work, Galliano’s instrument and its rich sound palette are most engaging when his stylish, virtuosic improvisations are allowed to soar (The Godfather love song with double bass accompaniment) and in the eerie, avant-garde introduction to Giulietta Degli Spiriti.

Opens August 3 Genre Comedy/road movie Duration 120 minutes Despite an erratic track record, the director Michael Winterbottom has deservedly earned the respect of most observers of the British film scene. Over two decades he’s established himself as the UK’s most prolific filmmaker, making his films quickly and efficiently on relatively low budgets that make it easier to get the freedom to take creative risks. That said, to mention Winterbottom as a leading European auteur in the same breath as, say, his compatriots Mike Leigh or Ken Loach, is hard, since the themes, stories and genres he tackles follow no obvious patterns while his directorial style changes wildly from project to project according to the needs of the material. No wonder, then, that the results also vary, from the artistic successes like 24 Hour Party People, Wonderland and Genova to failed experiments such as 9 Songs and Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story, the latter a bold but largely unsuccessful attempt at adapting Laurence Sterne’s unfilmable novel. That film’s chief legacy remains the first screen pairing of its stars, Steve Coogan and Rob Bryden, as a thrusting and parrying comedy double act. Their obvious chemistry went on to find…

Lesson: Introduction to Film Scores

### Overview
In this lesson, we will learn about film scores and their importance in creating a mood or atmosphere in movies. We will explore the work of Nino Rota, a famous Italian composer who created many iconic film scores.

### Objectives
By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

1. Define what a film score is
2. Identify the elements that make up a film score
3. Analyze the work of Nino Rota and his contributions to the film industry
4. Create their own short film score using basic musical principles

### Section 1: What is a Film Score?
A film score is the music that accompanies a movie. It is composed specifically for the film and is used to enhance the mood, atmosphere, and overall experience of the audience. The music can be used to highlight emotions, create tension, or simply add to the beauty of a scene.

### Section 2: Elements of a Film Score
A film score typically includes several elements, including:

1. Theme Music - A recurring melody or motif that represents a character, location, or idea in the film.
2. Incidental Music - Music that is played during specific scenes or moments in the film, such as during action sequences or love scenes.
3. Sound Effects - Sounds that are added to the film to enhance the realism of the environment or to create a specific mood.
4. Song and Singing - Songs or singing that are performed within the context of the film, either by characters or as part of the storyline.

### Section 3: Nino Rota and His Work
Nino Rota was an Italian composer who created many iconic film scores, including those for The Godfather and La Strada. He was known for his ability to capture the essence of a scene or character through music, and his scores were often complex and emotionally charged.

One of Rota's most famous works is the theme for The Godfather, which has become synonymous with the film itself. The melancholic theme captures the sense of loss and tragedy that permeates the story, while also adding a sense of grandeur and power to the Corleone family.

Another example of Rota's work can be found in La Strada, a film about a traveling circus and its performers. The score for this film is full of circus-like music, with playful melodies and lively rhythms that capture the energy and excitement of the circus environment.

### Section 4: Creating a Short Film Score
Now that we have explored the work of Nino Rota and the elements of a film score, let's try our hand at creating a short film score.

Assignment:

1. Choose a scene from a movie or create your own short film clip.
2. Decide on the mood or atmosphere you want to create with your music.
3. Using basic musical principles, compose a short piece of music that complements the scene.
4. Include elements such as theme music, incidental music, sound effects, and song/singing if necessary.
5. Play your composition for the class and discuss how it enhances the scene.

### Conclusion
In this lesson, we have learned about the importance of film scores and the work of Nino Rota. We have also created our own short film score to demonstrate the principles we have learned. By understanding the elements of a film score and how they can be used to enhance a movie, we can appreciate the art of film scoring and its impact on the cinematic experience.

Lesson: Introduction to Insurance Underwriting
## Section 1: What is Underwriting?
Underwriting is the process of evaluating risks and determining the premiums to be charged for insurance policies. It involves analyzing the applicant's background, medical history, and other relevant factors to assess the likelihood of a claim being made.
## Section 2: Types of Insurance Policies
There are several types of insurance policies, including life, health, auto, home, and business insurance. Each policy has different coverage and benefits, and the underwriting process may vary depending on the type of policy.
## Section 3: Importance of Underwriting
Underwriting is crucial in the insurance industry because it helps insurers determine the appropriate premium for each policyholder. This ensures that the insurer is not taking on too much risk or charging too little for a policy. Underwriting also helps insurers avoid fraud and ensure that only legitimate claims are paid.
## Section 4: Role of Brokers in Underwriting
Insurance brokers play an essential role in the underwriting process. They act as intermediaries between the insurer and the policyholder, helping to match the right policy with the right applicant. Brokers also help to negotiate premiums and ensure that the policy meets the needs of the applicant.
## Section 5: Examples of Underwriting
An example of underwriting is when an insurance company evaluates a potential policyholder's medical history to determine if they are at high risk for certain illnesses. If the applicant has a history of heart disease, for example, the insurer may charge a higher premium or deny coverage altogether.
## Conclusion
Understanding the basics of underwriting is essential for anyone interested in pursuing a career in the insurance industry. By mastering the principles of underwriting, you can help ensure that insurance policies are priced fairly and that only legitimate claims are paid.

Lesson Title: Understanding Sequences and Series

Introduction:
In mathematics, sequences and series are two related concepts that deal with the arrangement and addition of numbers, respectively. A sequence is a list of numbers in a specific order, while a series is the sum of those numbers. Sequences and series are used in various mathematical applications, including algebra, calculus, and probability theory. In this lesson, we will explore the basics of sequences and series, their properties, and how they can be used to solve real-world problems.

Section 1: What is a Sequence?

A sequence is a list of numbers arranged in a specific order. The order can be ascending, descending, or random. Sequences can be represented using variables, such as x, y, or z, to represent each term. Some common types of sequences include arithmetic sequences, geometric sequences, and Fibonacci sequences.

Example: The sequence 2, 4, 6, 8, ... is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2.

White Transparent

White Transparent is an early-season cultivar of apple which is usually used for cooking due to its sharp taste. It is sometimes said to be the same as 'Yellow Transparent', but 'Yellow Transparent' is sometimes described differently, with fine rather than coarse flesh, and a sub-acid rather than acid flavour.

Local names

History

White Transparent is a chance seedling which was found in the Wagner nursery in Riga around 1850. The cultivar was widely grown during the 19th century in Europe. It was introduced to France in 1852. It was introduced to North America in 1870 where it was grown commercially as an early dual purpose variety and picked up the name 'Yellow Transparent'. The specimen is still widely grown in Poland, Russia and Sweden where it is sometimes referred to as the Baltic Sea apple.
The cultivar was significant because it was an early-season apple in most places. Because of its harsh flavour and hard texture, the apples were often baked in ashes.

Description
The tree is very hardy and the fruit has a good resistance to scabs, but is at risk of developing canker caused by the Nectria fungi and fireblight. The tree is known to be a good and regular cropper of a medium-sized fruit, which has a very pale green skin which turns to pale yellow with ripening. It is usually harvested while still greenish, since it tends to deteriorate fast while yellow.

It is named "transparent" because it is almost luminescent in colour and has a white flesh, that is very juicy and has a sharp, refreshing taste.

Cooking
The fruit is good for cooking into a cream colored puree and is usually harvested for this purpose.

Lesson: Understanding the Concept of Market Price

Introduction: In this lesson, we will learn about the concept of market price and how it affects the cost of goods and services. We will explore different scenarios where market price plays a significant role and discuss ways to understand and analyze market trends.

Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Topic 1: What is Market Price?
- Market price refers to the current price at which a good or service is available in the market. It is determined by the forces of supply and demand.
- When the demand for a product increases, the market price tends to rise, and vice versa.

Topic 2: Types of Market Price
- There are two types of market prices: spot price and futures price.
- Spot price refers to the current price at which a product is being sold in the market. It is based on immediate delivery and payment.
- Futures price refers to the price at which a product is expected to be sold in the future. It is based on a contract that specifies the delivery date and quantity of the product.

Section 2: Practical Examples

Topic 1: Understanding Market Trends
- To understand market trends, we need to analyze the supply and demand for a particular product.
- We can use tools such as charts, graphs, and tables to visualize the data and identify patterns.
- For example, if the demand for a product increases while the supply remains constant, the market price will likely rise.

Topic 2: Applying Market Price in Everyday Life
- Market price affects the cost of goods and services that we purchase daily.
- For example, the price of gasoline fluctuates based on market trends. When the demand for gasoline increases, the market price tends to rise.
- We can use this information to make informed decisions about when to buy certain products.

Section 3: Self-Debating Discussions

Topic 1: The Role of Government in Regulating Market Price
- Governments may intervene in the market to regulate prices, especially for essential goods and services.
- For example, some countries have price controls for basic necessities such as food and medicine.
- However, this can lead to shortages or surpluses in the market.

Topic 2: The Impact of Globalization on Market Price
- Globalization has made it easier for companies to source products from different parts of the world.
- This can lead to increased competition and lower market prices for certain goods.
- However, it can also lead to job losses and economic instability in certain regions.

Glossary:
- Market Price: The current price at which a good or service is available in the market.
- Supply and Demand: The relationship between the availability of a product and the desire for it in the market.
- Spot Price: The current price at which a product is being sold in the market.
- Futures Price: The price at which a product is expected to be sold in the future, based on a contract.

Conclusion: Understanding the concept of market price is essential in making informed decisions about purchasing goods and services. By analyzing market trends and staying up-to-date on global events, we can make better choices and save money in the long run.

Lesson: Introduction to Medical Terminology

### Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Medical terminology is a language used by healthcare professionals to describe the human body, diseases, and treatments. It is important to understand the basic concepts of medical terminology to communicate effectively with healthcare providers and understand medical documents.

**Key Terms:**
- **Prefix:** A word part that is added to the beginning of a root word to change its meaning.
- **Suffix:** A word part that is added to the end of a root word to change its meaning.
- **Root Word:** The main part of a medical term, which contains the essential meaning of the term.

### Section 2: Questions and Answers

**Question:** What is the meaning of the prefix "hyper-"?
**Answer:** The prefix "hyper-" means "excessive" or "over".

**Question:** How do you add a suffix to a medical term?
**Answer:** To add a suffix to a medical term, you simply add the suffix to the end of the root word.

**Question:** Can you give an example of a medical term with a prefix, root word, and suffix?
**Answer:** Yes, one example is "hypertension," which means "high blood pressure." The prefix "hyper-" means "high," the root word "tension" means "pressure," and the suffix "-itis" means "inflammation."

### Section 3: Practical Examples and Real-World Scenarios

**Example:** If you have "arthritis," it means you have inflammation of the joints. The prefix "arthro-" means "joint," the suffix "-itis" means "inflammation," and the root word "itis" means "inflammation."

**Real-World Scenario:** Suppose you go to the doctor complaining of pain in your left arm. The doctor suspects that you may have angina, which is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. The word "angina" comes from the Greek word "anginos," which means "strangling," because the chest pain can feel like someone is trying to strangle you.

### Glossary

- **Prefix:** A word part that is added to the beginning of a root word to change its meaning.
- **Suffix:** A word part that is added to the end of a root word to change its meaning.
- **Root Word:** The main part of a medical term, which contains the essential meaning of the term.
- **Hyper-:** Prefix that means "excessive" or "over."
- **Arthro-:** Prefix that means "joint."

Development of a dye molecule-biocatalyst hybrid system with visible-light induced carbon-carbon bond formation from CO2 as a feedstock.
Recently, CO2 utilization technology, including artificial photosynthesis, has received much attention. In this field, CO2 is used as a feedstock for fuels, polymers and in other chemical processes. Of note are malic enzymes (MEs) which catalyze the reaction of malic acid to pyruvic acid and CO2 with the co-enzyme NADP+, and catalyze the reverse reaction of pyruvic acid and CO2 to malic acid with the co-enzyme NADPH. Thus, MEs are also an attractive biocatalyst for carbon-carbon bond formation from CO2. Studies of the visible light-induced malic acid production from pyruvic acid and CO2 using an electron donor, a photosensitizer, an electron mediator, ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase, NADP+, and ME have been reported. However, modification of these systems is required, as they are very complicated. In this study, the visible light-induced carbon-carbon bond formation from pyruvic acid and CO2 with ME using the photoreduction of 1,1'-diphenyl-4,4'-bipyridinium salt derivatives as a novel electron mediator with water-soluble tetraphenylporphyrin tetrasulfonate (H2TPPS) in the presence of triethanolamine (TEOA) as an electron donor was developed. When a sample solution containing TEOA, H2TPPS, 1,1'-diphenyl-4,4'-bipyridinium salt derivative, pyruvic acid, and ME in CO2-saturated bis-tris buffer was irradiated, the major product was oxaloacetic acid. Thus, a visible light-induced photoredox system for carbon-carbon bond formation from CO2 with ME using 1,1'-diphenyl-4,4'-bipyridinium salt derivative as an electron mediator was developed.

Title: Neurosecretion - A Process of Hormone Release

Overview: In this lesson, we will learn about neurosecretion, a process in which nerve cells (neurones) secrete a particular hormone. We will cover the definition of neurosecretion, the role of the supraoptic nucleus in the hypothalamus, and the difference between releasing-factor neurons and non-releasing-factor neurons. We will also explore how neurosecretion affects the release of hormones in the body.

Section 1: Introduction

Neurosecretion is a process in which nerve cells (neurones) secrete a particular hormone. This hormone is then released into the bloodstream and travels to target cells or organs in the body. Neurosecretion plays an important role in regulating various physiological processes, including metabolism, growth, and reproduction.

Section 2: The Supraoptic Nucleus and Releasing-Factor Neurons

The supraoptic nucleus (SON) of the hypothalamus is responsible for controlling the release of hormones by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. The SON produces two types of neurones: releasing-factor neurons and non-releasing-factor neurons.

Releasing-factor neurons secrete a hormone that stimulates the release of a particular hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. In contrast, non-releasing-factor neurons do not secrete a hormone that stimulates the release of a hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.

Section 3: The Process of Neurosecretion

In neurosecretion, the hormone produced by the SON is called the releasing hormone (RH). The RH is then secreted into the bloodstream and travels to the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland, where it stimulates the release of the corresponding hormone. This hormone is then released into the bloodstream and travels to target cells or organs in the body.

Section 4: Examples of Neurosecretion

One example of neurosecretion is the release of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. TSH is produced in response to the release of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) by the SON. TRH stimulates the release of TSH, which in turn stimulates the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormones.

Another example is the release of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the SON. GnRH stimulates the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), which are responsible for regulating the growth and development of the reproductive system.

Section 5: Conclusion

Neurosecretion is an important process that regulates the release of hormones in the body. By understanding the role of the SON and the differences between releasing-factor and non-releasing-factor neurons, we can better understand how neurosecretion affects various physiological processes.

Glossary:
- Neurosecretion: A process in which nerve cells (neurones) secrete a particular hormone.
- Supraoptic nucleus (SON): A region in the hypothalamus responsible for controlling the release of hormones by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
- Releasing-factor neurons: Neurones that secrete a hormone that stimulates the release of a particular hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
- Non-releasing-factor neurons: Neurones that do not secrete a hormone that stimulates the release of a hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
- Releasing hormone (RH): A hormone produced by the SON that stimulates the release of a corresponding hormone by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland.
- Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH): A hormone produced by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland in response to the release of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) by the SON.
- Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH): A hormone produced by the SON that stimulates the release of FSH and LH, which are responsible for regulating the growth and development of the reproductive system.

## Lesson: Understanding Historical Context
### Introduction
In this lesson, we will explore the historical context surrounding a group of people and their journey through Kentucky. We will analyze primary sources to understand the significance of certain events and locations, and learn how to critically evaluate information to draw our own conclusions.
### Section 1: Primary Sources and Historical Context
Primary sources are documents or artifacts that provide firsthand evidence of an event or period in history. In this case, we have a letter written by someone who traveled with a group of people through Kentucky in the early 1800s. By analyzing this letter, we can gain insight into the historical context of the time period.
For example, we can learn about the types of establishments that were popular during this time, such as taverns, which were places where travelers could rest and socialize. We can also learn about the roles of women in society, as the waitresses at The Trappe were given names typically associated with women.
### Section 2: Critical Evaluation and Analysis
To critically evaluate information, we must ask questions and seek answers to better understand the context in which the information was created. For example, we might ask why The Trappe was significant enough to be mentioned in the letter, or what the social norms were for women during this time period.
We can also analyze the language used in the letter to determine the author's tone and perspective. For instance, the fact that the waitresses were given names suggests that they may have been seen as interchangeable or anonymous, rather than individuals with their own identities.
### Section 3: Applying Skills to New Problems
Once we have analyzed the historical context and evaluated the information presented, we can apply these skills to other problems. For example, when reading about a current event, we can look for primary sources and evaluate them to determine their credibility and relevance. We can also analyze the language used to understand the author's perspective and identify any biases or agendas.
### Conclusion
By studying historical context and learning how to critically evaluate information, we can gain a deeper understanding of the past and apply these skills to analyze and interpret current events. By engaging in self-directed learning and asking questions, we can become more informed and engaged citizens.

text: Saturday, September 8, 2001. After the large group of Trixie Friends left the garden we split up into groups. I wanted to SHOP SHOP SHOP without much sightseeing involved so I took off on my own!!! (My family and I had toured Williamsburg together not long before so I'd already seen a lot of the sights.) I started out in Colonial Williamsburg and I soon branched out to the stores on the outskirts. I even made a trip to the Williamsburg library and picked up a few treasures at their book sale!!! I ended up getting a little bit lost and had to ask for help to get back to Colonial Williamsburg in time to catch a ride back to the hotel. (Don't tell anyone though!!!)
