hey guys welcome to jazz baby whoa new show brand new show look i'm going to uh go live i think every day at 4 30. at least for a bit we'll see how it goes i think this is a perfect time for a bit of jazz you know when you've sort of been shopping or you've finished your work you've done all the chores you know the housework the dinner's on in the uh in the crock pot or whatever and you're sort of just having a cup of tea i've got my coffee here and a little bit of a break i thought now 4 30 is quite good for jazz that's my theory anyway so i've only got a couple of tracks for you tonight and one of them is not very jazzy but that's because i'm ill prepared because we literally just set up the live studio it's just thrilling and we're kind of testing things out this is not my first broadcast today um i do a morning show as well at 9 30 which is raw clearance radio which is a little bit different different accent on things but this is my secret favorite but don't tell the others so i've got a jazz blues track it's called jazz blues actually and that's by myself and my band and then i did a jazz version of the swan as you probably know or if you don't you should i'm a cellist and i was a cello teacher for a long time i don't do so much teaching anymore life's taken a different turn but i still do my podcasts and a pianist and the swan is a great suzuki favorite for cellists beginner cellists it's in the suzuki method i think book six and it's more advanced actually it's quite difficult to play so i really started this backing track as a a tool i guess you'd call it a jazz tool to enable my students to have something to play along to to keep to keep things regular as they say as the doctor said to the um the old lady who was having trouble down the uh the root of the oh where am i going just stop it stop it zarya okay so now then what's the next one tears by vapor punk ah now vapour punk is my robot one of my robots from uh ttc telltale cup and he she is sort of an undisclosed gender and i didn't i wanted a figure a performer a musician that was neither female or male and really that that didn't matter at all but um is definitely a robot so it takes on this sort of very robotic music and speaks in this kind of funny voice and it's particularly directed at children but what's happened actually is vapour punk's getting a bit of an older audience so we just released a single it's not our first but it's our first by vapor punk if that makes sense so i've stuck this on the end here it's called tears and it's our christmas track so you're going to be hearing a lot of it actually so i hope you enjoy these three tracks and i hope you've got your nice cuppa and you've got your feet up have you got a gout stool apparently that's the thing i had no idea it's a little it looks quite small you just put one foot in it because you know the difference between gout and arthritis well the difference in sensation is that arthritis is um to you would feel that symmetrically on you know both sides of your body but gout is usually just one side how interesting is that i am filled with um nursing information my mother actually always brings me before the doctor and i give her the run down the low down according to my years of wisdom being a witch my couple of ex-husbands have called me that um so anyway i'll stop waffling on here goes with um the the repertoire for the for today but there'll be more tomorrow i'll start looking for stuff because i quite enjoyed this a little show from raw clarence and it was a pleasure and i hope you're back tomorrow

Recording of Wuthering Heights, by Emily Brontë. Read by Ruth Golding.
Emily Brontë's only novel, published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell.

chapter 10 of wuthering heights this librivox recording is in the public domain recording by ruth golding wuthering heights by emily bronte chapter 10 a charming introduction to a hermit's life four weeks torture tossing and sickness oh these bleak winds and bitter northern skies and roads and dilitary country surgeons and oh this dearth of the human physiology and worst in all the terrible intimation of kenneth that i need not expect to be out of doors till spring

mr heathcliff has just honored me with a call about seven days ago he sent me a brace of grass the last of the season scoundrel he is not altogether guiltless in this illness of mine and that i had a great mind to tell him but alas how could i offend a man who was charitable enough to sit at my bedside a good hour and talk on some other subject and pills and drafts blisters and leeches this is quite an easy interval i am too weak to read yet i feel as if i could enjoy something interesting why not have up mrs dean to finish her tale i can recollect its chief incidents as far as she had gone yes i remember her hero had run off and never been heard of for three years and the heroine was married i'll ring she'll be delighted to find me capable of talking cheerfully mrs dean came at once 20 minutes sir to take him the medicine she commenced away away with it i replied i desire to have the doctor says you must drop the powders with all my heart don't interrupt me come and take your seat here keep your fingers from that bitter phalanx of vials draw your knitting out of your pocket that will do now continue the history of mr heathcliff from where you left off to the present day did he finish his education on the continent and come back a gentleman or did he get a sizes place at college or escape to america and earn honours by drawing blood from his foster country or make a fortune more promptly on the english highways he may have done a little in all these vocations mr lockwood but i couldn't give my word for any i stated before that i didn't know how he gained his money neither am i aware of the means he took to raise his mind from the savage ignorance into which it was sunk but with your leave i'll proceed in my own fashion if you think it will amuse and not wear you are you feeling better this morning much that's good news

i got miss katherine and myself to thrush cross grange and to my agreeable disappointment she behaved infinitely better than i dared to expect she seemed almost over fond of mr linton and even to his sister she showed plenty of affection they were both very attentive to her comfort certainly it was not the thorn bending to the honeysuckles but the honeysuckles embracing the thorn there were no mutual concessions one stood erect and the others yielded and who can be ill-natured and bad-tempered when they encounter neither opposition nor indifference i observed that mr edgar had a deep-rooted fear of ruffling her humor he concealed it from her but if ever he heard me answer sharply or saw any other servant grow cloudy at some imperious order of hers he would show his trouble by a frown of displeasure that never darkened on his own account he many a time spoke sternly to me about my purpose and have heard that the stab of a knife could not inflict a worse pang than he suffered at seeing his lady vexed not to grieve a kind master i learned to be less touchy and for the space of half a year the gunpowder lay as harmless as sand because no fire came near to explode it catherine had seasons of gloom and silence now and then they were respected with sympathizing silence by her husband who ascribed them to an alteration in her constitution produced by her perilous illness as she was never subject to depression of spirits before the return of sunshine was welcomed by...

hey journalists welcome to christmas yep we're going to work through our book of christmas carols now the book i'm using is let me find the title cherry time christmas uh oxford press um however i'm going to call out the notes and i'll play each little section for you and you can therefore learn it by memory okay um i can't just play it and play the whole thing unfortunately for copyright reasons but i'm allowed to teach it which is pretty good news isn't it so we're going to start let's have a look i mean i can call out some chords as well for pianists and guitarists now you'll hear in the background i've got one of my robots playing this is cuddles playing guitar so um we'll just keep cuddles going because cuddles just keeps us in tune doesn't it so i shouldn't call it in it but um sometimes i forget it's just a robot anyway open g so we're starting on the although we're in c major we're starting on the fifth so we're starting on that lovely open g and then we're going straight in to two c's

and another so that's an open and two fourth fingers down put all four fingers down

and then a quick b which is three and then another four so for that bar we'd be open four four three four into the next bar and then string swap i've got a nice slur there should i do that again

good and now four fingers down on the d string

so let me explain the fingering from that third bar

four fingers down

two up two down and then one open one we're going to hold that for two for that minute okay should i do that whole section again

bravo now we've got a repeat of all of those sections not quite so next bar open four four three four one one open four down open open three three one open

do you see i will do the second section

okay i think you should should i play it from the beginning and call out the notes some sometimes it for different musicians do different things some musicians like to hear what the notes sound like others like to know the names if you're writing this down it's or you've got a score in front of you it's going to be really useful to know the names of the notes so g c c b c e g

e

okay um sometimes i have trouble going backwards next section g's with your fourth finger down three of them and then just nip across onto that other string with your fourth finger down um i wouldn't move your whole hand i just move the pinky because the next note is second finger down

and then we repeat that little phrase

that's four four four four two one one open so i'll call out the notes for that little section uh g uh

and we're going to swap the strings and go up two three eight open string don't have to worry about it don't squeak like i did there then back down on four so what i do is from that section don't move your hand away from the d string keep it covered because there's a string we don't need any fingers for so if your fingers are already on this other string ready you see so keep your fingers down on that other string if you can you've got fingers don't so let me just uh call out the names of the notes

open string crossing four down on the g f e f

g now this is that's a bit tricky just because of the rhythm see the rhythm is tricky now i've played a few times...

A book that seems just as relevant today. Manners remain imperative but are lost in modern-day relations especially online so I am featuring a few books on how to behave. Tale Teller Ladies and Gentlemen will benefit from a listen.

introduction of the ladies book of etiquette and manual of politeness this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by christine lamberton the ladies book of etiquette and manual of politeness by florence hartley introduction in preparing a book of etiquette for ladies i would lay down as the first rule do unto others as you would others should do to you you can never be rude if you bear the rule always in mind for what lady likes to be treated rudely true christian politeness will always be the result of an unselfish regard for the feelings of others and though you may err in the ceremonious points of etiquette you will never be impolite politeness founded upon such a rule becomes the expression in graceful manner of social virtues the spirit of politeness consists in a certain attention to forms and ceremonies which are meant both to please others and ourselves and to make others pleased with us a still clearer definition may be given by saying that politeness is goodness of heart put into daily practice there can be no true politeness without kindness purity singleness of heart and sensibility many believe that politeness is but a mask worn in the world to conceal bad passions and impulses and to make a show of possessing virtues not really existing in the heart thus that politeness is merely hypocrisy and dissimulation do not believe this be certain that those who profess such a doctrine are practicing themselves the deceit they condemn so much such people scout politeness because to be truly a lady one must carry the principles into every circumstance of life into the family circle the most intimate friendship and never forget to extend the gentle courtesies of life to everyone this they find too much trouble and so deride the idea of being polite and call it deceitfulness true politeness is the language of a good heart and those possessing that heart will never under any circumstances be rude they may not enter a crowded salon gracefully they may be entirely ignorant of the forms of good society they may be awkward at table ungrammatical in speech but they will never be heard speaking so as to wound the feelings of another they will never be seen making others uncomfortable by seeking solely for their own personal convenience they will always endeavor to set everyone around them at ease they will be self-sacrificing friendly unselfish truly in word indeed polite give to such a woman the knowledge of the forms and customs of society teach her how best to show the gentle courtesies of life and you have a lady created by god only indebted for the outward polish to the world it is true that society demands this same unselfishness and courtesy but when there is no heart in the work the time is fritted away on the mere ceremonies forms of etiquette and customs of society and this politeness seeks only its own ends to be known as courteous spoken of as ladylike and not beloved as unselfish and womanly etiquette exists in some form in all countries has existed and will exist in all ages from the rudest savage who dares not approach his ignorant barbarous ruler without certain forms and ceremonies to the most polished courts in europe or the home circles of america etiquette reigns true politeness will be found its basis in the human heart the same in all these varied scenes and situations but the outward forms of etiquette will vary everywhere even in the same scene time will alter every form and render the exquisite polish of last year obsolete rudeness next year politeness being based upon real kindness of heart cannot exist where there is selfishness or brutality to warp its...

Quote from Librivox.
'Bill is in training camp, preparing to go off to World War I. This book is a collection of love letters written to his sweetheart, Mable. The letters are humorous, misspelled, and have many stories of life in an army camp - all from Bill's unique perspective.' (summary by Rob Kunkel)

mon croquet that's not the kind with the evening dress toothpick in the top mabel a croquet is a french society woman study these letters of mine and see how i use the words you ought to be able to pick up enough friends to understand me talking it when i come home well mabel new years are behind us again once more i made a lot of revolutions it's no use saying there wasn't nothing for me to change you're prejudiced i can see faults where others can't underneath a pleasant exterior i am made of sterner stuff as the poets say i have gave up frivolity with the exception of going into town once in a while to take a bath i'm strong for the sanity stuff under any conditions i'm making a study of war i'm going to tell you a secret i'm working on a plan to end the war i got thinking as i will and it struck me that no one had gone into this at all they're all figuring how to go on with it but none of them how to quit it don't say nothing until i get it worked out i guess you always knew you'd heard from me when i got going and mabel

i also resolved not to put off till tomorrow what i can do today old motto for instance if i can get out of a fatigue today what's the use of wait until tomorrow the same with sleeping and resting i cut out cigarettes too i was getting to be a fiend got so i had to light one whenever i got thinking i was using up most a package a day nervous and high strung that's me all over mabel i smoke cigars in a pipe instead a fellow with an active mind has got to have something you remember what the fellow would train the high school show said when he saw me act temperature that's me of course it's harder to borrow pipe tobacco into cars but i'm trying to show the fellas how bad cigarettes is pretty soon i'll be all okay again i got that watch your father sent me for a new year's present tell him thanks very much and not to feel bad because he forgot to send me a christmas present because this wipes out the debt entirely he said it was the military watching the latest thing out i guess they called a military watch because it works two hours and stops four it's the latest thing around here if i answered call by that watch i'd be falling in for a retreat around taps it's so slow it can't stop quick i got the blacksmith over at the headquarters company working on it now he's an awful good man he was a plumber in civilian life that's why they made him a blacksmith when he joined the army he says he's gonna fix it so as i'll never be bothered with it again i got asked to a dinner new year's night i sat next to a colonel's wife it was kind of embarrassing at first i put her easy though i says who's that funny looking old bird sitting across the room with the head like an egg he's very chick isn't he that's a french joke mabel she says that's my husband as soon as i had stopped laughing i started writing and told her the history of every man in the company beginning with the a's you know me when i get started i didn't give her no chance to get embarrassed when she started to say something i just kept right on talking to sure that being a colonel's wife she wasn't expected to make no effort i made good mabel i guess you know i would after dinner i heard her ask somebody who invited me and she said something like he'd ought to be known better never miss a chance that's me all over it may mean promotion or anything it may be that she'll have me...

sweeney among the nightingales by t.s eliot led for libertybox.org by whanau jahangiri

happy next weeny spreads his knees getting his arms hang down to laugh the zebra stripes along his jaw swelling to immaculate giraffe the circles of the stormy moon slide westward toward the river plate death and the raven drift above and sweeney guards the hornad gate gloomy orion and the dog are the veiled and hush the shrunken seas the person in the spanish cape tries to sit and see in his knees slips and pulls the tablecloth overturns the coffee cup reorganized upon the floor she yawns and draws stocking up the silent man in mocha brown sprawls at the window sill and gapes the waiter brings in oranges bananas figs and hot house grapes the silent vertebrate in brown contracts and concentrates withdrawals rachel nay rabinowicz tears at the graves with murderous pass she and the lady in that cave are suspect thought to be in league therefore the man with heavy eyes declines the gambit shows fatigue leaves the room and reappears outside the window leaning in branches of wisteria circumscribe a golden grain

the host with someone in this thing converses at the door apart the nightingales are singing near the convent of the sacred heart and sang within the bloody wood when agamemnon cried aloud and let their liquid droppings fall to stain the stiff-dishoned shroud
