Note: If this post looks familiar, it's because we've covered FreeNAS before. Our old guide used FreeNAS 7, which is great, but the new FreeNAS 8 makes installing. Note: This guide uses FreeNAS 7. We now have an updated guide to FreeNAS 8, which includes some information on the difference between the two. The NUC itself is not supported by VMware and not listed in the HCL. However, some essential components are listed. ESXi runs out of the box starting with the. ZFSBuild2012 – Nexenta vs FreeNAS vs ZFSGuru. Back in 2010, we ran some benchmarks to compare the performance of FreeNAS 0.7.1 on the ZFSBuild2010 hardware with the.Turn an Old Computer into a Networked Backup, Streaming, or Torrenting Machine with NAS4. Free. At its most basic, Network attached storage, or NAS, is a great way to share files on your local network. But it's also a perfect solution for backing up your computers, streaming media across your home network, or even torrenting files to a central server. If you have an aging computer lying around, you can turn it into a NAS for for free with the open- source Free. NAS operating system. Here's how. First, we'll take a closer look at what exactly a NAS is and does, then jump into how to set it up. If you want to skip the first part, you can skip straight to the setup section. Note: This guide uses Free. NAS 7. We now have an updated guide to Free. NAS 8, which includes some information on the difference between the two. We've kept this guide intact because Free. NAS 7—the version we used here—is still available as a separate project called NAS4. Free. So, we decided to leave the guide here and change the title. We'll still refer to it as Free. NAS throughout the guide, and while the videos use the old version of Free. NAS, the process should be nearly identical for NAS4. Free. Also, before getting started, make sure NAS4. Free is right for you. These days, there are a lot of solid server options out there. ![]() Read more here. Dear Lifehacker,I'm ready to take the plunge and build my own home server, but I'm not…Read more What Is Network Attached Storage? A Network attached storage box is a computer on your network specifically designed to store files. Any computer on the network can access files on a NAS, which makes them great for bigger households, and they're also nice for when you don't want to store a bunch of external drives on your desk. Unlike regular file servers, NAS units are usually built for a specific purpose, like backing up your data or streaming media to other machines. They're also usually quite low power and low cost, and they don't require a monitor, mouse or keyboard—once you've installed the software, you can configure every aspect of your NAS from a web browser on your other computers. You can find pre- made NAS units for as low as one or two hundred dollars, and they usually come with their own software. ![]() However, if you have an old computer lying around, you can actually turn it into a NAS for free with the aptly- named Free. NAS software. It doesn't need much in terms or resources, any old computer will probably do. Alternatively, you can buy or build your own home server box that fits the specifications of what you want to do (and even hide it in some nice- looking box from IKEA). The bottom line is, there's no need to go out and buy a pre- built NAS when you can make one yourself with great, free, open source software and hardware you already have lying around. Heck, if you've got the money, you're better off spending on it on an extra hard drive than you are an entirely new machine. Dear Lifehacker. I like the idea of having a networked backup, streaming, and torrenting home…Read more. Here, we'll show you how to set up Free. NAS on the computer of your choice, connect it to your other computers as if it were directly attached to them, and show you a few simple examples of how you could use it for backup, i. Tunes music streaming, or video streaming to a home theater PC. Photo by Andrew Currie. What You'll Need. You can install Free. NAS on a ton of different systems using a number of different methods, but here are the things you'll need for our method: A PC with a minimum of 1. MB RAM to act as your NAS. It will also need an Ethernet connection and a bootable CD drive in it from which we can install Free. NAS onto one of its hard drives. The Free. NAS live CD, available here (more details on that below). A network with DHCP reservations or static IP addresses. This isn't required, but it's definitely preferred. If you don't have this, managing your NAS can get pretty annoying, since its IP address will change whenever you reboot it (as will your other computers'). Free. NAS is actually designed to run on a flash drive or compact flash card rather than one of the drives in your computer, but since many computers (especially older ones, like the one you might recycle into a NAS) don't support booting from USB, we're going to install Free. NAS to the hard drive for simplicity. If your computer supports booting from USB, you can actually use the live CD to install Free. NAS to a 2. GB flash drive and run Free. NAS from that flash drive instead, keeping it plugged into your NAS at all times. Installing Free. NAS. To install Free. NAS, you'll need the Free. NAS live CD. Head to this page and click on the latest stable build of Free. NAS 7 NAS4. Free. Download the live CD image that applies to you—that is, if your NAS has a 6. If not (or if you aren't sure), grab the i. Burn it to disc using something like IMGBurn for Windows or Burn for Mac, and stick it into a computer (any computer, it doesn't matter if its your NAS or not). Head over to your NAS box and boot up from the live CD. It'll take awhile to boot up, but once you get to the Free. NAS menu, pick option 9: "Install/Upgrade to hard drive/flash device". Pick option 2 on the next screen, "Install embedded OS on HDD/Flash/USB + DATA + SWAP partition" (if you're installing on a flash drive, you can pick option 1 instead). Pick your CD drive and hard drive from the lists it throws at you, and say no to a SWAP partition (unless your computer has less than a few gigs of RAM, in which case it might be a good idea to create a SWAP partition that's twice the size of the RAM in your machine). It will format your drive for you with the UFS file system, and install Free. NAS to a small partition at the beginning of the drive. Remove the live CD and boot up your computer. You should boot into your new Free. NAS installation, and come up with the same menu the Live CD gave you. This time, pick option 1, "Assign Interfaces". Pick your ethernet port from the list (there's probably only one option), then pick "none, Finish and exit" on the next page. Next, pick option 2, "Set LAN IP Address". Using DHCP should be fine, unless you're using static IPs, in which case you can hit "no" and assign it an address yourself. When you're done with all the network configuration, it should spit out an IP address for you. This is how you'll access the web interface to configure everything on your NAS, so make a note of it and head over to your desktop computer. You can now unhook the keyboard and monitor from your NAS; you won't need them anymore. Sharing Your Free. NAS Drive with a Desktop Computer. To access the web interface, open your web browser and type in the IP address you copied down at the end of the installation process. When you first open it up, it'll ask you for a username and password. Type in admin for the username and freenas for the password to gain access. The first thing we want to do is change these to something a bit more secure. Click on the "System" menu at the top of the page and hit "General". Under Web. GUI, change the username to whatever you want, and click save. Go to the Password tab and change your password as well. Next, we'll add our hard drive(s) to Free. NAS. Hover over the Disks menu at the top of the page and click on Management. Click on the Plus sign to add a new one. On the next page, choose your disk from the "Disk" dropdown menu, type in a description if necessary, and hit Add. The rest of the default settings should be fine for now. Make sure you hit "Apply Settings" back on the Disk Management page when it takes you back there. If you're running Free. NAS off a flash drive, head to Disks > Format and pick your disk from the dropdown menu. Choose "UFS (GPT and Soft Updates)" and give it a volume label. Hit Format disk. If Free. NAS is installed to your internal hard drive, you can skip this step since you formatted it when you installed Free. NAS. Next, we need to give that drive a "mount point" in Free. NAS. Head to Disks > Mount Point from the top menu, and click the plus sign. Pick your disk from the dropdown menu. Give the mount point a name and a description if you like. I also turn off "foreground/background file system consistency check during boot process" here, since that's caused problems with slowdowns and crashes for me in the past. Click the Add button and once again, hit Apply Settings on the next page. We're almost there! The last thing you want to do is share that drive with your other computers on the network. Turn an Old Computer Into a Do- Anything Home Server with Free. NAS 8. You've heard the word "server" thrown around a lot, but usually in the context of web sites or big companies that have a lot of data to store. In reality, a server can be just as useful in your home. In this guide, we'll walk through how to create your own home server out of an old or cheap computer that can do all your downloading, streaming, and backup tasks 2. Note: If this post looks familiar, it's because we've covered Free. NAS before. Our old guide used Free. NAS 7, which is great, but the new Free. NAS 8 makes installing plugins for Bit. Torrent, media streaming, Usenet, and other tasks much easier. If you want to check out Free. NAS 7—now called NAS4. Free—you can still view our old guide here. Also, before getting started, make sure Free. NAS is right for you. If you're looking to set up a simple home server (rather than an enterprise- grade one), you might be better off with something like Amahi. Read more about your options here. Dear Lifehacker,I'm ready to take the plunge and build my own home server, but I'm not…Read more What Does a NAS or Home Server Do? Network Attached Storage—or NAS for short—is basically a set of hard drives connected to your network, so any computer in your house can access them. This is great for bigger households or people with multiple computers (like a home theater PC) that all need to access the same data. They're also usually quite low power and low cost, and they don't require a monitor, mouse or keyboard—once you've installed the software, you can configure every aspect of your NAS from a web browser on your other computers. The term "home server" usually has a different connotation than NAS, but they're pretty similar. The main difference is that home servers can perform more tasks than just storage—they can also do things like download files for you, stream media to your other devices, and so on. These days, NAS devices come with more and more functionality out of the box, so the terms NAS and home server are often used interchangeably. Don't sweat the details—the device we make in this guide can be as basic or as extreme as you want, no matter what you call it. You can buy a lot of great NAS devices out there, and they'll come with their own good software. However, we're going to use some free, open source software called Free. NAS to repurpose an old computer instead. That way, you can just fill your old PC up with drives, stick it in the closet, and forget about it, without having to spend a lot of money. Alternatively, you can build your own quiet, low- powered home server for pretty cheap (that's what I did), and configure it a bit more to your needs. Whatever kind of PC you use, setting up the software is pretty similar across the board. Here's how to do it. There are dozens of NAS (Network- Attached Storage) enclosures on the market that you can pack with…Read more What's the Difference Between NAS4. Free and Free. NAS 8? Free. NAS 8 is the newest version of Free. NAS, but Free. NAS 7 (now called NAS4. Free) is still very popular among some folks, including myself (it's what I use on my server at home). In fact, we have guides about it here at Lifehacker. So which one should you use? Each has their own strengths and weaknesses, and in my experiences with each, here are some things I've found that will help you decide: NAS4. Free is better for older hardware, specifically hardware that has less than 2. GB of RAM. Free. NAS 8 is a bit easier to use when it comes to basic stuff like adding drives, sharing them over the network, and adding plugins for torrenting, streaming media, and so on. NAS4. Free is a little simpler to troubleshoot, particularly when you're installing programs outside the sanctioned system. Free. NAS 8 has a lot of advantages if you're going to RAID your drives (specifically, the ZFS filesystem). In general, I'd recommend Free. NAS 8 if you just want to share drives across the network and maybe install a few of the pre- built plugins. NAS4. Free is better for those with older computers, or those that want to install more advanced extras that aren't available as plugins for Free. NAS 8 (since they're easier to install and troubleshoot on NAS4. Free). Both are good pieces of software, but which one you use will depend on your specific needs. If you still aren't sure, give them both a shot and see which one you like better! What You'll Need. You can install Free. NAS on a ton of different systems using a number of different methods, but here are the things you'll need for our method: A PC with a minimum of 2. GB of RAM. Free. NAS recommends that you have at least 4. GB for its ZFS filesystem, but if your old computer isn't loaded up with RAM, the older- but- more- stable UFS filesystem will work fine for most people's needs. Note also that some plugins—like the Usenet ones—are 6. The Free. NAS Installer Image, available here (more info on this below). A 4. GB or larger flash drive. A network with DHCP reservations or static IP addresses. This isn't required, but it's definitely preferred. If you don't have this, managing your NAS can get pretty annoying, since its IP address will change whenever you reboot it (as will your other computers'). Free. NAS is actually designed to run on a flash drive or compact flash card rather than one of the drives in your computer. If your computer doesn't have the ability to boot from USB, you'll have to follow some slightly tweaked instructions here (and you won't be able to use one of your drives for storage). For this guide, we'll be booting from a 4. GB USB drive. Install Free. NAS. To install Free. NAS, you'll need to grab a 4. GB flash drive and the Free. NAS installer image. You'll want to grab the USB image, not the live CD. If the computer on which you're installing Free. NAS is 6. 4- bit capable, grab the 6. Step One: Burn Your USB Drive. The first step is different depending on your operating system. Windows users: to install Free. NAS on your flash drive, you'll first need to download Win. Disk. Imager and 7- Zip (if you don't have them already). Here's what you need to do: Download the Free. NAS image archive and open it up with 7- Zip. Copy the Free. NAS IMG file to your desktop, and exit 7- Zip. Insert your flash drive. Start Win. 32. Disk. Imager and click the blue folder icon. Browse to your Free. NAS IMG file you just extracted. Choose your flash drive from the dropdown on the right, then click the "Write" button to write the image to your drive. Mac users: To install Free. NAS on your flash drive, you'll need an app called Keka, as well as a little command line work: Download the Free. NAS image archive and right- click on it. Choose "Open With Keka" from the menu. It should automatically extract the Free. NAS IMG file to the same folder as the XZ archive. Insert your flash drive. Open Disk Utility (from /Applications/Utilities) and select your flash drive in the sidebar. Click the Erase tab and format it, ensuring it only has one partition. It doesn't matter what you format it as, we're going to overwrite it in a minute. Unmount the partition after its created. Open a Terminal window (from /Applications/Utilities) and run the following command. Note the path of your USB drive in the list. This will be something like /dev/disk. Run the following command. Desktop/Free. NAS- 8. RELEASE- p. 2- x. Be SURE to replace the "if" path and the "of" path with the correct ones for your system (the first being the location of your Free. NAS image, the second being the path to your flash drive). If you do this incorrectly, you can cause severe data loss! Give it time to finish the copying process. When it's done, you'll get a message saying it completed successfully. Step Two: Boot and Configure Free. NAS. Now that you have your Free. NAS flash drive ready to go, it's time to get Free. NAS started. Here are the things we recommend doing to get it set up: Plug the flash drive into your computer and turn it on. Make sure to boot from the flash drive. You may need to tweak a few BIOS settings in order to do so. It'll take a few minutes to start up. When it's done, it'll give you an IP address at the bottom of the screen. Head back to your main computer and type that IP address in your browser's navigation bar. You should be greeted with the Free. NAS web interface. Before you do anything else, you'll want to change your username and password for this web UI, since right now it doesn't have a password—which is very insecure. Hacking Attacks.

In the world of the Sims.![]() Check Your Real- Life "Sims Bars" to Prevent a Meltdown. Maxis’s game The Sims teaches an important lesson about human behavior: Most of the time, we’re just trying to meet a set of basic needs. In the world of the Sims, those needs are hunger, comfort, hygiene, bladder, energy, fun, social, and room, each represented by a slowly depleting bar. And they’re so true to life that you should check your own before you leave home or start a long trip. Most of your morning routine is about keeping these bars out of the red before you head out: breakfast, a shower, choosing your clothes, loading a podcast to entertain yourself on the train. But when you’re doing anything outside your normal routine, like a weekend adventure or a flight, you might forget these essentials (a known psychological phenomenon). So add the Sims needs to your “wallet, phone, keys” checklist before you leave home. Then consider whether you’ll be away from food, water, or shelter for longer than usual, and pack accordingly. Even that weird “room” need is real: see if you can score an upgrade on your plane seat. Most of us don't like the middle seat on a plane. We're crammed between two people. If…Read more Beyond the actual problem of hunger or discomfort, empty Sims bars are likely to make you grumpy or anxious. Like the H. A. L. T. triggers for destructive behavior (hungry, angry, lonely, tired), these mundane needs can escalate into terrible decisions, especially when you misinterpret them. I’m much more likely to get in an argument when I’m tired and underfed, because my dumb brain turns “I’m hungry” into “I’m mad at my friend.”)The list is simple, but the real work is in training yourself to recognize these needs more often. Put a reminder on your front door, or your bathroom mirror. Go through the checklist out loud with your partner. Practice meeting each need in the same order every time, so remembering one always reminds you to do the others, like remembering the next song in your favorite playlist. In The Sims, one solution is often buying something new. But the game doesn’t reward overspending. In real life, consider whether the shiny new thing you want to buy will actually fill one of those bars better than something cheaper, or something you already own. Once you think about your needs in the mundane terms of Sims bars, a lot of impulse purchases will feel silly. We often think of real life in game- like terms: “leveling up” our stuff, earning “points” with people. But the Sims teaches us that if life is a game, it’s not one of constant upward progression to an ultimate goal. It’s a game of sustaining yourself, adjusting to new events, and finding stability without stagnation.
Como cuidar de pata de elefante – Como Cuidar. A pata de elefante é considerada pelos jardineiros e paisagistas uma planta arbustiva muito semelhante às palmeiras. Em sua fase adulta podem alcançar de 3 a 5 metros de altura, possuem um tronco ornamental e uma raiz extremamente larga para que possa armazenar água, o que dá a ela a principal característica que a difere das palmeiras, além de ser capaz de sobreviver por um longo período de estiagem. Embora não possua flores muito vistosas, costuma- se cultivá- la devido suas numerosas folhas e seu caule, que devido a protuberância da área onde a planta reserva nutrientes, lembra uma pata de elefante.É uma planta que faz muito sucesso no paisagismo de jardins, porém, tem sido usada também em vasos para a decoração de ambientes internos. Cultivo. Essa planta se dá muito bem com o clima seco, além de ter uma boa resistência ao calor. Pode- se criá- la tanto em áreas internas quanto externas, apenas é necessário que se tenha o cuidado para que ela receba um pouco de luminosidade e não fique exposta a geadas prolongadas. ![]() Se optar por plantá- la em vasos o crescimento certamente será lento e não será necessária a troca do vaso, pois ela tem a capacidade de se adaptar ao tamanho do recipiente, entretanto, deve ser plantada logo em sua fase jovem para que as raízes fiquem bem apertadas. Após escolher o local, lembre- se que as melhores mudas são encontradas em viveiros e para um bom desenvolvimento da planta use substrato ou adubo artificial para cactos. Tipo de Solo: Acostumada a um clima tropical seco, a Beaucárnea necessita de um solo fértil, porém pouco úmido, caso contrário corre o risco do apodrecimento de suas raízes. A melhor forma de preparar o solo antes do plantio (e de mantê- lo depois) é através da adição de adubo orgânico, que é rico em nitrogênio, substância mais utilizada por essa planta, já que ela não é uma grande produtora de flores ou frutos. Os maiores problemas em sua aparência e apodrecimento das raízes aparecem por conta das regas em excesso, afinal são plantas que absorvem toda a água para sobreviver em estações de seca e estiagem e, por conta disso, não precisam ser regadas com frequência. O ideal é deixar o solo secar bem antes de regar novamente.É uma planta que pode ficar sem ser regada por até um mês seguido e o indicado é cultivá- la em um solo mais seco, que não deixe a planta suscetível ao apodrecimento da raiz.É aconselhável a compra de mudas devido ao alto índice de não brotamento das sementes se as condições não forem bem controladas, uma vez feito o plantio no solo devidamente preparado como dito acima, devemos regá- la de tempos em tempos. Caso sua muda for muito pequena, dependendo de onde você mora é melhor plantá- la inicialmente em um vaso e mantê- lo protegido durante o inverno. Quando adulta, transfira- a para seu lugar definitivo, que pode ser um vaso grande ou no jardim.É uma planta que possui longevidade, podendo chegar até os 3. ![]() Sony Mobile Communications Inc. is a multinational telecommunications company founded on October 1, 2001 as a joint venture between Sony and Ericsson, headquartered.

The greasy sizzle of delicious meat on a grill is a staple of every Labor Day weekend. But as everyone breaks out the barbecue grill, paper plates, and “Kiss the. Or a hot dog? (“Both” is certainly an option, but not for the purposes of this showdown.)Vegetarian? I’m so sorry. Competition. Both burgers and hot dogs can be prepared in quite a few ways, whether by grilling, broiling, pan frying, or in the case of hot dogs, boiling. Throw on some toppings like ketchup, mustard, pickles, and cheese, and you’ve got yourself a delicious, meaty entree that goes perfectly with an ice cold soda or a delicious beer. Burgers. Your traditional burger is a cooked ground beef patty in between two pieces of bread, like a bun or a roll. Of course, you can gussy it up with various accoutrement, including cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and other delicious toppings and condiments. It’s hard to beat the flavor profile of a fully- equipped burger, but it might be hard to maintain its structural integrity if you’re using only one hand. Hot Dogs. Hot dogs are as iconic as apple pie and Superman in the fabric of American culture. A hot dog is a cooked sausage served in a partially sliced bun. Condiments like ketchup (however controversial), mustard, and relish are traditional toppings, but cheese, pickles, peppers, and bacon are also excellent additions that will supe up your dog. Sure, it’s not as filling as a burger, but you’re going to have more than one anyway. Meat is not for everyone. If you didn’t grow up in a meat- eating household, or if you’re a former…Read more Hot Dogs: Engineered to Be a One- Handed Beer Companion. Hot dogs are the more manageable of the two classic barbecue foods. Regional differences mean different types of meat may be involved, though the general shape and composition will be similar. The cylindrical sausage shape and long bun make it ideal for one- handed consumption. They’re a staple at baseball games, where you’ll need a free hand to either hold a pint of beer or catch a foul ball beelining for your face. Hot dog variations range from the tame to the downright preposterous. Your standard dog is paired with ketchup, mustard, and sauerkraut. Some of the most unwieldy (but delicious) hot dog options include the chili cheese dog, the Chicago dog, and a Cleveland staple, the Polish Boy. The more elaborate versions may require a hot dog tray to contain the additional toppings. Burgers: A Two- Handed Helping of Deliciousness. There’s a reason a cartoon show about a burger restaurant exists. They’re great. It’s hard to find something more mouth- watering to consume during a barbecue than a burger. The grilled beef patty, the toasted bun (if you’re doing it right), and the assortment of delicious toppings all add up to a both nutritionally dense and aromatically appealing meal. The origin of the burger as we know it today is disputed, but it was catapulted to the forefront of American culture thanks to its appearance at the 1. St. Louis World’s Fair. Where hot dogs are usually grilled in the same uniform manner, you can alter your burger’s taste depending on how rare you prefer to eat beef. The actual components of a burger allow for a wide variety of permutations and variants that will appeal to nearly every palate. Bacon cheeseburgers, California burgers, and even Luther burgers (a burger with a sliced donut for a bun) are just a few of the innumerable varieties you can stuff into your gullet. Juicy burgers that melt in your mouth are one of life’s greatest pleasures. If your patties often…Read more A burger’s structural integrity is its weakness, and relies on multiple factors. Bun thickness, patty size, and topping thickness all add up to a food that will potentially be too tall to fit in your pie hole, forcing you to compress the burger or take multiple bites, pushing the rest of the meal either out the rear or sides of the bun. Two hands are usually necessary, meaning you’ll probably need to take a seat while you chow down. Also, soggy bun bottoms are the worst. Verdict: Burgers Rule, but Hot Dogs are The Perfect Barbecue Food. No one can deny the appeal of a delicious burger, no matter your dietary requirements. But in terms of outdoor barbecue fare, its composition is a double- edged sword. Hot dogs are the superior barbecue food thanks to the even delivery of both bread, beef, and condiments, all while using a single hand. You might not think it’s that big a deal, but when you’re walking around the park, beer in one hand, dog in the other, enjoying the beautiful weekend you’ve been waiting for all summer long, the answer will be undeniable. Throw a burger on the grill, for sure, but save a dog or two for me. ![]() Time Clock, Attendance and Payroll Solution. Complete on- line documentation and support for Time. IPS systems. Time.

Music - Wikipedia. Music. A painting on an ancient Greek vase depicts a music lesson (c. BCE). Medium. Sound, silence, time. Originating culture. Various. Originating era. Paleolithic era. Music is an art form and cultural activity whose medium is sound organized in time. The common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics (loudness and softness), and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture (which are sometimes termed the "color" of a musical sound). Different styles or types of music may emphasize, de- emphasize or omit some of these elements. Music is performed with a vast range of instruments and vocal techniques ranging from singing to rapping; there are solely instrumental pieces, solely vocal pieces (such as songs without instrumental accompaniment) and pieces that combine singing and instruments. The word derives from Greekμουσική (mousike; "art of the Muses").[1]In its most general form, the activities describing music as an art form or cultural activity include the creation of works of music (songs, tunes, symphonies, and so on), the criticism of music, the study of the history of music, and the aesthetic examination of music. Torrentz will always love you. Farewell. © 2003-2016 Torrentz. No-registration upload of files up to 250MB. Not available in some countries. Ancient Greek and Indian philosophers defined music as tones ordered horizontally as melodies and vertically as harmonies. Common sayings such as "the harmony of the spheres" and "it is music to my ears" point to the notion that music is often ordered and pleasant to listen to. However, 2. 0th- century composer John Cage thought that any sound can be music, saying, for example, "There is no noise, only sound."[2]The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context. Indeed, throughout history, some new forms or styles of music have been criticized as "not being music", including Beethoven's Grosse Fugestring quartet in 1. There are many types of music, including popular music, traditional music, art music, music written for religious ceremonies and work songs such as chanteys. ![]() ![]() Music ranges from strictly organized compositions–such as Classical music symphonies from the 1. Music can be divided into genres (e. For example, it can be hard to draw the line between some early 1. Within the arts, music may be classified as a performing art, a fine art or as an auditory art. Music may be played or sung and heard live at a rock concert or orchestra performance, heard live as part of a dramatic work (a music theater show or opera), or it may be recorded and listened to on a radio, MP3 player, CD player, smartphone or as film score or TV show. In many cultures, music is an important part of people's way of life, as it plays a key role in religious rituals, rite of passage ceremonies (e. People may make music as a hobby, like a teen playing cello in a youth orchestra, or work as a professional musician or singer. The music industry includes the individuals who create new songs and musical pieces (such as songwriters and composers), individuals who perform music (which include orchestra, jazz band and rock band musicians, singers and conductors), individuals who record music (music producers and sound engineers), individuals who organize concert tours, and individuals who sell recordings and sheet music and scores to customers. Etymology. The word derives from Greekμουσική (mousike; "art of the Muses").[1] In Greek mythology, the nine Muses were the goddesses who inspired literature, science, and the arts and who were the source of the knowledge embodied in the poetry, song- lyrics, and myths in the Greek culture. According to the Online Etymological Dictionary, the term "music" is derived from "mid- 1. Old Frenchmusique (1. Latin musica "the art of music," also including poetry (also [the] source of Spanish musica, Italian musica, Old High Germanmosica, German Musik, Dutch muziek, Danish musik)." This is derived from the ".. Greek mousike (techne) "(art) of the Muses," from fem. Muses," from Mousa "Muse" (see muse (n.)). Modern spelling [dates] from [the] 1. In classical Greece, [the term "music" refers to] any art in which the Muses presided, but especially music and lyric poetry."[6]As a form of art or entertainment. Music is composed and performed for many purposes, ranging from aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, or as an entertainment product for the marketplace. When music was only available through sheet music scores, such as during the Classical and Romantic eras, music lovers would buy the sheet music of their favourite pieces and songs so that they could perform them at home on the piano. With the advent of sound recording, records of popular songs, rather than sheet music became the dominant way that music lovers would enjoy their favourite songs. With the advent of home tape recorders in the 1. MP3 player. Some music lovers create mix tapes of their favorite songs, which serve as a "self- portrait, a gesture of friendship, prescription for an ideal party.. Amateur musicians can compose or perform music for their own pleasure, and derive their income elsewhere. Professional musicians are employed by a range of institutions and organisations, including armed forces (in marching bands, concert bands and popular music groups), churches and synagogues, symphony orchestras, broadcasting or film production companies, and music schools. Professional musicians sometimes work as freelancers or session musicians, seeking contracts and engagements in a variety of settings. There are often many links between amateur and professional musicians. Beginning amateur musicians take lessons with professional musicians. In community settings, advanced amateur musicians perform with professional musicians in a variety of ensembles such as community concert bands and community orchestras. A distinction is often made between music performed for a live audience and music that is performed in a studio so that it can be recorded and distributed through the music retail system or the broadcasting system. However, there are also many cases where a live performance in front of an audience is also recorded and distributed. Live concert recordings are popular in both classical music and in popular music forms such as rock, where illegally taped live concerts are prized by music lovers. In the jam band scene, live, improvised jam sessions are preferred to studio recordings. Composition"Composition" is the act or practice of creating a song, an instrumental music piece, a work with both singing and instruments, or another type of music. In many cultures, including Western classical music, the act of composing also includes the creation of music notation, such as a sheet music "score", which is then performed by the composer or by other singers or musicians. In popular music and traditional music, the act of composing, which is typically called songwriting, may involve the creation of a basic outline of the song, called the lead sheet, which sets out the melody, lyrics and chord progression. In classical music, the composer typically orchestrates his or her own compositions, but in musical theatre and in pop music, songwriters may hire an arranger to do the orchestration. In some cases, a songwriter may not use notation at all, and instead compose the song in her mind and then play or record it from memory. In jazz and popular music, notable recordings by influential performers are given the weight that written scores play in classical music. Even when music is notated relatively precisely, as in classical music, there are many decisions that a performer has to make, because notation does not specify all of the elements of music precisely. The process of deciding how to perform music that has been previously composed and notated is termed "interpretation". Stop Mickey Mouse from Spying On Your Kids.

Chun- Li(春麗, also チュン・リー,Chun Rī, simplified Chinese: 春丽; traditional Chinese: 春麗; pinyin: Chūn Lì)[1] is a character in Capcom's Street Fighter series.[2] The first female fighter of the series, she made her first appearance in Street Fighter II: The World Warrior in 1. In the series, she is an expert martial artist and Interpol officer who restlessly seeks revenge for the death of her father at the hands of the nefarious M. Bison, leader of the Shadaloo crime syndicate. Since her debut, Chun- Li has become a mainstay of the franchise and one of its most popular figures, appearing in nearly all subsequent installments of the series and several Capcom spinoff games, in addition to featuring prominently in Street Fighter- related media such as two feature films, multiple anime and comic book productions, and other official series merchandise. She has earned much positive fan and critical reception for factors such as her backstory, athleticism, and in- game playability, in addition to being considered a trailblazer for female characters in fighting titles and in general video gaming. Concept and creation[edit]Akira Nishitani recounted, "Previously there were no women in fighting games. In Chun Li's case, I wanted a woman in the game. I determined what her fighting abilities would be. Then China just came up as a possible homeland."[3] In response to fans that were disappointed with Chun- Li's absence from Street Fighter III, Capcom added her to Third Strike. Nevertheless, the developers themselves also wanted to add her. Additionally, Capcom stated they found multiple difficulties in adding her to the cast. Her main designer, Akira “Akiman” Yasuda so she was designed by other members from the staff. Chun- Li was originally meant to be added to Second Impact.[4]Appearances[edit]In video games[edit]. Laura Bailey is Chun Li's English voice in the video games. Chun- Li is presented as a woman with a strong sense of justice, and her motives for fighting crime range from avenging the death of her father (her desire to do so by revenge was the reason why she lost to a perfect victory in SFA2) to protecting innocents (she had finally learned to accept and deal with her losses). She especially cares for kids, showing repulse for the use of brainwashed young girls in Street Fighter Alpha 3 and the kidnap of a girl in Street Fighter III: Third Strike. In the latter game, she decides she will teach her fighting style and philosophy to kids.[5][6][7] Chun- Li is an expert martial arts practitioner. She started training in several styles of Chinese kempo ("Chinese martial arts") at the age of 5, especially tai chi chuan, which she would later complement with sanda (combat wushu) and fighting styles from all around the world, such as taekwondo, Full contact karate, Judo and capoeira.[8] Related to her police job, she is also a very skilled firearm user, her game profiles stating that she has at least once achieved a sixth place in an international shooting competition.[5] Chun- Li has also been noted in- universe for her fluent English, investigating skills, penetrating eyes, beauty and acting talent for deception.[9]Chun- Li was introduced in 1. Street Fighter II as the franchise's first playable female character, an undercover Interpol agent seeking to avenge the death of her father at the hands of M. Bison and his criminal organization. Upon Bison's defeat, she fulfills her revenge and decides to return to her life as an ordinary girl; Super Street Fighter II allows players to choose this ending or another in which she remains a police officer. The Street Fighter Alpha prequel series built upon her backstory, while Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike shows her retired and teaching martial arts to young children, only to be forced to return to law enforcement after one of her students is abducted by Urien. Chun- Li returns in Street Fighter IV, where her in- game narrative shows her at crossroads in her life, eventually returning to both street fighting and law enforcement. She also makes an appearance in Street Fighter V; in her prologue story, Chun- Li recalls how she learned of her father's death. In Street Fighter EX, a non- canonical spinoff series produced by Street Fighter II creator Akira Nishitani, Chun- Li is a police officer investigating Shadaloo in search of her missing father. She has also made appearances in many other Capcom- produced fighting games, including all titles of the long- running series Marvel vs. Capcom (ever since X- Men vs. Street Fighter, including Shadow Lady, a dark version of Chun- Li that underwent harsh experiments on Bison's orders and was transformed into a cyborg) and Capcom vs. SNK (as a rival to Fatal Fury character Mai Shiranui), and in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All- Stars and Street Fighter X Tekken. She and Ryu are the only Street Fighter characters to appear in every Capcom crossover title, including the SNK vs. Capcom fighting game series by SNK and the tactical role- playing games Namco × Capcom, Project X Zone and Project X Zone 2 by Namco,[1. Street Fighter X Mega Man where they serve as boss fights for the Blue Bomber. Often, Chun- Li is either continuing her existing story from Street Fighter II or seeking to arrest the other characters in the game that she sees as suspicious. In addition Chun Li appears in the versus puzzle games Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix and Street Fighter: Puzzle Spirits,[1. Chun- Li Ni Makase China!, the first game that featured her in a starring role. She also makes cameo appearances in Final Fight 2,[1. Breath of Fire and Mega Man 9, as well as in Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams (an alternate costume for Ohatsu) and in Sony's Little. Big. Planet (a DLC for Sackgirl).[1. In the Street Fighter II sub- series and most of her later appearances, Chun- Li wears a blue qipao, an early- 2. Chinese dress, with golden accents, puffy sleeves, and a white waistband.[5] In the first version of Street Fighter II, Chun- Li was originally depicted wearing a red qipao instead of blue.[1. The dress is modified to allow a far wider range of movement than a generic qipao. Her ensemble also includes a pair of white combat boots and brown tights/stockings. She wears her hair in "ox horns",[1. Another familiar part of her ensemble are the large spiked bracelets she wears on her wrists. In the Street Fighter Alpha games (set during the time period before Street Fighter II), Chun- Li wears a Chinese acrobatic outfit consisting of an embroidered vest, a unitard, and trainers, wearing her ox horns unadorned, but kept in place with yellow ribbons.
