RISM’s copy of “The Cascades” was arranged by Etilmon J. Listening to the piece, you can almost hear the water splashing as the cascades flow down-or you might hear structural and harmonic similarities to Joplin’s earlier success, the “Maple Leaf Rag.” Joplin probably visited the fair when it opened, and the “Cascades” rag could often be heard there. Festival Hall was the fair’s main venue for music performances and housed the world’s largest pipe organ at the time. Fourteen waterfalls flowed into a basin in front of the fair’s centerpiece, Festival Hall, with the Colonnade of States surrounding it. ![]() The “cascades” of Joplin’s title were part of “the most beautiful feature of the Exhibition,” as a souvenir photo book from the fair phrased it. Exhibits from fifty foreign countries and almost all of the states ensured that fairgoers had a good time. ![]() The fair, which attracted an estimated 20 million people from around the world, encouraged visitors to look back to the nation’s frontier days while looking ahead to progress in the fields of technology, science, and medicine. This World’s Fair was known as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and celebrated the centennial of the historic event that doubled the size of the United States and launched an age of exploration and Western expansion. The original piano rag, which was once advertised by Joplin’s publisher as being “as high-class as Chopin,” was composed upon the occasion of the World’s Fair in St. The Joplin piece in RISM is an orchestral arrangement of “The Cascades” (RISM ID no. ![]() When you think of Scott Joplin (1867 or 1868-1917), a piano rag probably comes to mind rather than a piece for piano plus strings, winds, and percussion-but the latter is precisely the instrumentation of the only work in the RISM database by Joplin, who died 100 years ago on April 1.

There are dozens of ways to create an emotional unity amongst your community’s members. Arrange a meet-up to celebrate a milestone, demand changes from industries in your sector. ![]() Issue a statement from the community about a negative development. Set expectations for developments in your topic. Highlight or arrange events the community can be excited about. Put together a plan of action to create this emotional unity. Like the examples above, events happen that cause your community to have an emotional unity moment. The scientific community might be sad at the death of a respected member.įeeling the same things at the same time is the vital element in developing close community bonds and a true community spirit. The environmental community might be angry with BP. They are happy together, sad together, angry together etc…Ī local community might be excited about an upcoming festival. Now so to act is to walk worthy of calling grace, or agreeably to it: peace is what the saints are called unto in the effectual calling: and what is suitable to God, who is the God of peace and to Christ, who is the Prince of peace and to the Holy Spirit, whose fruit is peace and to the Gospel, which is the Gospel of peace and to the character which the saints bear, which is that of sons of peace.A great community oscillates at the same emotional frequency. The Arabic version reads, "by the bond of love and peace": by maintaining peace among themselves, and seeking those things which tend to, and make for peace, and spiritual edification and which is called a bond, in allusion to the Greek word used, which comes from one that signifies to knit, join, and bind together, and because it is of a knitting and uniting nature. ![]() (n.) Any definite quantity, or aggregate of quantities or magnitudes taken as one, or for which 1 is made to stand in calculation thus, in a table of natural sines, the radius of the circle is regarded as unity. Now to endeavour or study to keep and preserve this, supposes that this union does already exist that it is very valuable, as making much for the glory of God, the mutual comfort and delight of saints, and is worth taking some pains about and that it is very difficult to secure, there being so many things which frequently arise, and break in upon it, through the devices of Satan, and the corruptions of men's hearts: but though it is difficult, and may sometimes seem to be impossible, yet it becomes the saints to be diligent in the use of means to keep it up, and continue it and which they may be said to endeavour after, when they abide with one another, and do not forsake each other upon every occasion when they perform all offices of love to one another, and stir up each other to the like: and the way and manner in which this is to be kept, is (n.) Concord harmony conjunction agreement uniformity as, a unity of proofs unity of doctrine. That is, a spiritual union: there is an union between God and his people, and between Christ and his members, and between saints and saints, and the bond of each union is love and that it is which knits and cements them together and it is the last of these which is here intended: the saints are united under one head, and are members of one and the same body, and should be of the same mind and judgment, and of one accord, heart, and affection: and this may be called "the unity of the Spirit" because it is an union of spirits, of the spirits or souls of men and that in spiritual affairs, in the spiritual exercises of religion and it is effected by the Spirit of God, by whom they are baptized into one body. Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit Her guests are five women from the past: Isabella Bird (1831- 1904) - the adventurous traveller Lady Nijo (b1258) - the mediaeval courtesan who became a Buddhist nun and travelled on foot through Japan Dull Gret, who as Dulle Griet in a Bruegel painting, led a crowd of women on a charge through hell Pope Joan - the transvestite early female pope and last but not least Patient Griselda, an obedient wife out of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Marlene hosts a dinner party in a London restaurant to celebrate her promotion to managing director of 'Top Girls' employment agency. The critique of feminist ambitions is a clear central theme and Churchill's selection of women from the past and modern world shows sympathy for the feminist cause and disdain for the male oppressor, but there is no sentimentality an no comfortable solution is offered for their problems. The dialectic of Top Girls is wide-ranging, covering universal dilemmas facing women, but focuses on major themes of contemporary life. Finally, but definitely not least, many thanks to my family for their ongoing support, especially my brother Vince for sharing my interest in all things dramatic, my father Bert for always talking to me about politics, and most of all, my mother for exposing me to the joys of the theatre.

If you have a directory structure with nested package.json files and you want one of the child manifests to be skipped, you can do so by ommiting the xo property in the child's package.json. This means the last override in the array takes precedence over earlier ones. If multiple override configs match the same file, each matching override is applied in the order it appears in the array. The remaining properties are identical to those described above, and will override the settings of the base config. Each override object must contain a files property which is a glob string, or an array of glob strings, relative to the config file. The overrides property must be an array of override objects. XO makes it easy to override configs for specific files. Note: For this to work, the setup-node action must be run before XO.

The tools are stainless steel and rust-resistant, and a lanyard clip lets you connect this one to your belt so if you drop it you don’t lose it. ![]() And, all tools but the pliers and wire cutters are accessible with the tool closed. But if you’re on a budget, or looking for a tool to handle occasional tasks, it’s up to the job. And the knife is too petite to make this my top choice for a tool I’d use to prepare meals camping. ![]() The M16 has many of the most useful tools, including a wire cutter, wood and metal file, scissors, flat and Phillips head screwdrivers, can and bottle opener, a small knife, and a ruler. ![]() They’re spring-loaded, for one-handed operation, with a textured gripping surface that gave me good traction for any task, even when I had sweaty hands. I used the spring-loaded needle-nose pliers for projects around the house, garden tasks, and also removing porcupine quills from my dog’s mug. Weight: 4.5 ounces | Dimensions: 3.87 x 0.56 x 1 inches | Blade Length: 2.5 inches | Tools: 8įor the price, Dewalt’s M16 is impressive. If you’re a user who appreciates a pry bar, a sister version of this tool gives you prying capability, too. Each has a plastic clip-a modern take on the nail-nic, and the tools require two hands for opening. When the tool was new, it was hard to release the tools, but they opened more easily over time. Also inside: an awl, plain edge blade, and a file. The bits are replaceable, and they’re also usable at 90°, a feature unique to this tool. It comes with a double-sided screwdriver with bits big enough to handle most tasks. My other favorite feature: A powerful magnetic bit driver that locks securely. It saved me from dulling my regular knife blade with mundane tasks, so it stayed sharp for camping, climbing, and more. The block-shaped Lockdown-Drive has eight tools, and one of them is a replaceable Exacto blade. If you use your knife blade for a lot of box opening and lightweight cutting, you’ll love this tool as much as I did. Weight: 7.5 ounces | Dimensions: 4 x 1.24 x 0.6 inches | Blade Length: 2.9 inches | Tools: 15 The Curl is backed by Leatherman’s 25-year warranty. The tool doesn’t have a lanyard clip, and sheaths are sold separately. ![]() When I snapped off the tip of my ice ax on a climb, I paused at a mid-route anchor and resharpened the pick so I could carry on. A bit driver and holder adds to this tool’s versatility with the option to replace the piece that’s the most likely to wear out with heavy use.Īnd while the file on some tools seems more of an emery board for smoothing a rough fingernail than a tool for sharpening metal, this tool’s file is legit. I was also impressed by the tool’s comfort while using the pliers. I loved the blade's sharpness and shape-it’s a perfect knife for camp food prep, whittling a skewer to toast a marshmallow, and trimming tent cord. It’s the most comfortable, functional leatherman for generalist use, priced to be affordable for most. The multitool also features wire cutters and strippers, a knife, bit driver and screwdriver, spring-action scissors, diamond coated and wood/metal file, can and bottle opener, awl, and ruler. Like the original Leatherman, pliers are the base of this model, sporting both needle nose and regular pliers. The Curl, which comes with 15 tools, is the most recent iteration of the tried and true tool. Tim Leatherman is credited with creating the first multitool, known as the "Leatherman," some 40 years ago. |
