The Original recording by maestro Alirio Díaz of Antonio Carrillo’s “Como Llora Una Estrella”. There are various videos of him playing this piece but all are from a later edition of his arrangement (as recorded by John Williams). This recording is the original and quite a bit different. Also the score is hard to get so since this is my own edition, it’s free for all guitarists who wish to learn it.

My friend and former colleague at King’s College London, Duncan Lockerby has produced this incredible video where he demonstrates how a very simple mathematical rule can produce complex and unpredictable musical patterns. Somewhat like Stephen Wolfram but without the arrogance.

Hi — complete amateur here. Joined the community to see if someone could help me with identification. This small raptor (standing 6-8 inches at most) visited our yard (San Francisco Bay Area). It looks quite young, and it has a band on its left leg. Any information would be appreciated.

On the interactive version, hovering over a major will show which fields its graduates ended up working in. The thickness of the lines reflects the share of people in each major-occupation combination.

Twas the night before launch…
At a Launch Readiness Review Saturday, managers for Orbital Sciences Corp. of Dulles, Virginia, and NASA gave a “go” to proceed toward the Sunday, July 13, launch of the Orb-2 cargo resupply mission to the International Space Station. Orbital is targeting a 12:52 p.m. EDT launch from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport Pad 0A at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. NASA Television coverage of the launch will begin at noon EDT online at http://www.nasa.gov/nasatv.
There is a 90-percent chance of favorable weather at the time of launch.
Seen here is the full Moon setting in the fog behind the Orbital Sciences Corporation Antares rocket, with the Cygnus spacecraft onboard, Saturday, July 12, 2014, launch Pad-0A, NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. The Antares will launch Sunday, July 13 at 12:52 p.m. EDT with the Cygnus spacecraft filled with over 3,000 pounds of supplies for the International Space Station, including science experiments, experiment hardware, spare parts, and crew provisions. The Orbital-2 mission is Orbital Sciences’ second contracted cargo delivery flight to the space station for NASA.
