9/17/2023 0 Comments Dirty family secretsIn our experience, secrets sometimes ignite feelings of betrayal and resentment which encourages estate litigation. WHY FAMILY SECRETS ARE HARMFULĪccording to some schools of thought, secrets may damage the well-being of the entire family because they destroy trust and healthy communication. With the advance of social media, including Facebook and Twitter, it is increasingly difficult to keep anything secret. With the advent of home reality shows such as Jerry Springer, it is clear the current generation shares their secrets much more freely. Victims of this abuse have increasingly come forward, been believed and been validated. A widespread secret was sexual abuse in the home. Many parents now in their sixties have been reunited with biological children given up for adoption as infants. Indeed until relatively recently, pregnant young women were hustled off to homes for unwed mothers. A child born “on the wrong side of the blanket” in Victorian times could shame the entire family. Times have changed and events that were branded with a dreaded stigma a century ago, may hardly raise an eyebrow today. Cohen apparently spent several years researching her book, primarily because secrets proliferated everywhere she looked including the archives, courthouses, memoirs, personal letters, diaries, to court actions. A HISTORY OF HIDDEN SHAMEĭeborah Cohen traces family secrets in a book: “Family Secrets: Living With Shame From the Victorians to the Present Day”. Secrets involving addictions such as substance abuse, eating disorders, gambling or chronic infidelity Secrets involving family enmeshment issues which would include scape-goating individuals, infidelity, cruelty and mental illness Individual secrets primarily harming the individual seeker holder relating to a self perceived shame, usually relating to guilt, anxiety, cultural shame, inferior education or social economic background. John Bradshaw in his recent book “Family Secrets “describes four different categories of secrets: Secrets involving criminal activity, the more egregious the crime, the more likely the suppression. A descendent recently came forward to break that secret, now centuries old. Historical secrets are still emerging today–for example, President Jefferson’s impregnation of a black servant. Family members may lose their filters with dementia, or simply decide to unburden themselves at last. Some secrets go to the grave, while others are ultimately disclosed. Those kept in the dark may sense something unusual but not be able to put their finger on it. The non-disclosure sometimes takes on an energy of its own. They may involve infidelity, mental illness, sexual orientation, illegitimacy, substance abuse, physical or psychological abuse or any other of the myriad of human potential frailties. Many families have secrets and their nature varies considerably. There are a myriad of reasons why people decide to hide details of a shameful incident, illicit relationship or other personal issue. It is a rare family with no skeletons in their closest. In our practice we have had DNA cases disclosing the existence of long hidden children and recently a case where the deceased made a deathbed confession to his wife and family about his second wife and 12-year-old daughter. Her baptismal certificate had been forged by the village priest to hide her premarital conception. By the time he learned the truth, both had died without ever telling him the truth.Ĭloser to home, a Quebec born friend who was 21 years old, suddenly learned she was actually 23 years old. At age 37, actor Jack Nicholson learned that the person he had known as his life as his sister was actually his mother, and his “mother” was actually his grandmother.

9/17/2023 0 Comments Arduino midi controllerThe sequencer is used to capture and play back drum beats, triggering the associated sound generator. The sound generator portion is similar to those described above, a synthesizer tailored to making drum and percussion sounds. The Roland TR-808 drum machine (Image courtesy wikimedia commons) They can take many forms, the two most common might be the tabletop module Standalone MIDI sound generators, also known as sound modules, are instruments that generate sound, but have no on-board provision for playing. The controller and sound generator functions don't need to be bundled in the same unit, though. A soft touch could result in a glass harmonica sound, while a harder hit might elicit a pyrophone. A velocity split changes sounds depending on how hard the keyboard is struck.One example is a string bass on the left side of the keyboard, and a piano on the right side. A keyboard split assigns different voices to different regions of the keyboard.Layering simply lets the performer play the multiple sounds at the same time, in unison.Multitimbral instruments often have different modes for using these sounds: Multitimbral - a polyphonic synthesizer that is capable of playing different sounds simultaneously.The number of simultaneous sounds is often limited, specified as the number of voices it can generate. Polyphonic - capable of playing multiple notes simultaneously, like a guitar, piano or organ.Monophonic - capable on playing a single note at a time, like woodwind or brass instruments.The player presses a key, and the synth produces a sound in response.ĭepending on the underlying technology, a synthesizer can be: The keyboard synthesizer typically has a piano keyboard (called the controller), and an internal tone generator, which could be analog, digital, or even mechanical. Kurzweil K2000 Synthesizer (Image courtesy wikimedia commons) While most modern computers lack an actual MIDI port, USB is easy to convert to MIDI with an adapter. As technology raced on, digital audio has become commonplace, and MIDI has been adapted and extended several times. It was state of the art in 1984, when the Apple II and Commodore 64 were the height of home computing. MIDI gained popularity as the personal computer caught on. MIDI was introduced at the 1983 NAMM trade show, where a Sequential Prophet 600 interfaced with a Roland Juno 106. In the early 1980's, following on the concepts of DCB and DIN-SYNC, Roland joined with manufacturers, including Sequential Circuits, and Oberheim, to co-develop a new standard for connecting synthesizers. Roland introduced the short-lived Digital Control Bus (DCB) to allow interconnection of their synthesizers, and DIN-SYNC to synchronize drum machines, but neither was widely adopted. Introducing Digital Systemsīy the end of the 70's, many synthesizers contained a digital microprocessor, controlling the analog circuitry, and implementing features such as automatic tuning, pattern generation (arpeggiation and sequencing), and sound storage. It was expensive and primitive, but it proved the value of the underlying concepts. The Back Cover of Herbie Hancock's 1978 record Sunlightīryan Bell, Herbie's sound technician, designed and built a system to interface those synths, as well as manage storing and loading patches. He wanted to be able to play any of them from a single custom keyboard. In the late 1970's, Herbie Hancock was exploring the possibilities of synthesizers, and had a live rig that incorporated instruments from many different manufacturers. There were simply too many permutations to allow easy communication. While instruments could be connected, there was no guarantee that they would respond the same way. There was little agreement as to how the interface worked. Each manufacturer implemented their own variant of the analog interface, tailored to their specific needs. The voltage compatibility didn't always translate to other vendors. Within the system, the signaling between the modules was standardized, so all of the modules were intercompatible. One voltage might control the pitch, another the timbre, and a third the amplitude. The signals between the modules were all analog, using voltages to represent musical parameters. Even today, the configuration for a sound on a synthesizer is called a patch, though it might not involve any cables or plugs. On these systems, the configuration of the patch cables, knobs, and switches determined what sort of sound was created.

I was a gourd and bombilla type of guy through and through, and while I appreciated Guayaki’s other products, such as their sparkling cans, glass bottles, and energy shots, I wasn’t sure how to feel about this perceived modernization of an ancient tradition. I was taken aback by how awesome everyone I interacted with was, such as Steven, Dave, Patrick and others I either spoke to via email, phone or eventually met in person.Īs time went on, I learned much more about mate: the history, tradition, health benefits, science and the immense beauty of it all. One of the first Yerba Mate companies I ever spoke with was Guayaki, who were more than generous with sending over free mate, t-shirts, stickers, gourds, bombillas and more. Some were with my brother, others were with friends I met while living in Abu Dhabi, and a handful were just me, a gourd and my thoughts (sort of like now). Shortly after experiencing mate for the first time (and immediately falling in love with it), I began to make YouTube videos. Now that you have a little background on the company, time for some thoughts: The five founders of Guayaki via Guayaki Modernization of Yerba Mate Today, the company is making millions of dollars (they made a reported $27 million in 2013 ), working to restore the rainforest and spreading mate throughout the world via major outlets like Whole Foods and 7-Eleven. When they weren’t surfing or sharing a gourd, they were driving a van around spreading the good word about the good herb. Soon enough, they were joined by three others: Don Miguel, Chris Mann, and David’s brother, Steven Karr. Their goal was to spread Yerba Mate to as many people within the United States as possible, while also doing all they could to protect the environment. Guayaki was founded in 1996 by two friends, Alex Pryor and David Karr. Today’s reflections are around Guayaki Yerba Mate, the biggest Yerba Mate company in the United States. In an effort to further the discussion of Yerba Mate in the States, we’ll regularly offer our thoughts on a few brands large and small, such as Guayaki, ECOTEAS, Circle of Drink, Aviva Yerba Mate, Mate Factor, Matear, YMateina, Yerba Montana and more. 9/16/2023 0 Comments Fall guys switch controllerEven if you touch the crown you won’t be crowned champion unless you hold onto it.

In terms of taxes, that’s all those selling their homes have to worry about, and, generally, the seller doesn’t have as many closing costs to pay as the buyer, but there are several fees over and above taxes that should be considered as part of the closing costs. This can be negotiated between the buyer and the seller as part of the sale. It doesn’t matter if the buyer or seller pays the transfer, as long as they are paid to the government. Transfer taxes can cost as much as 2.7%, though some states waive them. The amount varies depending on the state. Other additional taxes outside of capital gains may include an outstanding property tax on the property sold and a transfer tax on the actual real estate transaction itself. It’s important to look up your state’s own rules around how they tax capital gains before investing in a property. The following states don’t have income tax and therefore don’t charge capital gains tax:Īll other states charge a capital gains tax between 2.9% (North Dakota) and 13.33% (California).

Several variant board games, based on her concept, were developed from 1906 through the 1930s they involved both the process of buying land for its development, and the sale of any undeveloped property. Magie created two sets of rules: an anti-monopolist set in which all were rewarded when wealth was created, and a monopolist set in which the goal was to create monopolies and crush opponents. Her game, The Landlord's Game, was self-published, beginning in 1906. It was intended as an educational tool, to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies. The history of Monopoly can be traced back to 1903, when American anti-monopolist Lizzie Magie created a game that she hoped would explain the single-tax theory of Henry George. The game is named after the economic concept of a monopoly-the domination of a market by a single entity. Parker Brothers were eventually absorbed into Hasbro in 1991. When Parker Brothers first published Monopoly in 1935, the game did not include the less capitalistic taxation rule, resulting in a more aggressive game. The Landlord's Game originally had two sets of rules, one with tax and another on which the current rules are mainly based. Monopoly is derived from The Landlord's Game, created by Lizzie Magie in the United States in 1903 as a way to demonstrate that an economy that rewards individuals is better than one where monopolies hold all the wealth and to promote the economic theories of Henry George-in particular, his ideas about taxation. As of 2015, it was estimated that the game had sold 275 million copies worldwide. Monopoly has become a part of international popular culture, having been licensed locally in more than 103 countries and printed in more than 37 languages. House rules, hundreds of different editions, many spin-offs, and related media exist. Players receive a salary every time they pass "Go" and can end up in jail, from which they cannot move until they have met one of three conditions. Money can also be gained or lost through Chance and Community Chest cards and tax squares. Players collect rent from their opponents and aim to drive them into bankruptcy. In the game, players roll two dice to move around the game board, buying and trading properties and developing them with houses and hotels. Monopoly is a multi-player economics-themed board game.
