Year Round School: Friend or Foe? As seasons change‚ and the school year progresses‚ many students lose that “first day of school excitement” (I know that I do!) (parenthesis) that they once felt.

Mrs. Dawson All year round school at QMS Why do we have school for 9 months straight and then lose all of the knowledge we learned because we are too busy swimming in the pool and not caring about the date of World War 2?

Anne Mette Iversen‚ a modern bassist‚ composer‚ and bandleader based in Berlin‚ releases her seventh album on the Brooklyn Jazz Underground label with the suggestive title Round Trip. This idea of leaving and return to the same point is scattered throughout the eight original compositions whose exciting arrangements and interplay won me over. Most of the tunes on the recording thrive with a groovy‚ pulsing rhythm that feels contemporarily urban and provocative to the ear‚ gaining even more emphasis

Anthony van Dyck‚ Lucas van Uffel‚ illustrates a man whom appears to be distinguished as an intelligent artistic person.
