About
Ali Farka Toure
Often described as "the
African John
Lee Hooker" . Mainly a
guitarist, Ali also played calabash
and bongos. Like Hooker and Lightnin'
Hopkins favored low-pitched
not-too-slow but definitely not fast
songs you don't need a lot of
accompaniment for. Your foot and
your guitar are enough.
Toure sings in several
languages. He has been quoted as
saying that his songs are about
education, work, love, and society."
Probably like Hooker, he was deeply
inspired by many generations of
African music and African Rhythms.
Toure came to attention of
the commercial music world close to
the age of 50. In 1994's
"Talking Timbuktu" with Ry
Cooder, earned a Grammy for Best
World Music Album.
During his musical career,
Toure retreated for long periods to a
life of privacy, working his rice
farm. He In the end, on March 8 2005,
he succumbed to cancer. (details)

Mozart's
Women
Mozart Loved and respected
women. And for good reason.
His mother was Maria Anna. His
sister, perhaps as talented as he but
limited by the attitudes towards the
female sex at that time, was beloved and
devoted to him. His in-laws were
the Weber family. Although his wife
Constanze has not always been treated
kindly in histories,
was a loyal, constant
loving wife. It was she, in fact,
that after Mozart's death ensured
that his most enduring legacy, his
music, never be forgotten.
Constanze's sisters were sisters,
Aloysia, Sophie and Josefa. Aloysia and
Josefa were highly talented singers for
whom Mozart wrote some of his most
remarkable music. Aloysia was the first
woman whom Mozart truly and passionately
loved, and her eventual rejection of him
nearly broke his heart. Constanze, was a
less guifted singer but a loving wife
and partner.

Santa Claus. In
1809 he didn't have a beard and wasn't
fat. In 1837 he apparently bought his

Google
beats All Other Advertisersing
Media at their own game!!!
IN many ways, Larry Page and
Sergey Brin seem an unlikely pair to
lead an advertising revolution. As
Stanford graduate students sketching out
the idea that became Google,
the two software engineers sniffed in an
academic paper that "advertising-funded
search engines will inherently be biased
toward the advertisers and away from the
needs of consumers."
Alzheimer
Patients Benefit from Museum Tours
A few museums in the Northeast have begun
to give tours specially geared to
Alzheimer's patients. One of these
is the famous Museum of Modern Art
in New York City. The Museum of Fine Arts
in Boston and the Bruce Museum of Arts and
Science in Greenwich, Conn. also offers
tours and the later also offers out of the
museum art therapy.
The tours improve the patients' mood for
varied periods of time (hours, days) and
has revealed an amazing amount of
interpretive ability and ability to
express among the patients.
