Notation for one of the new pieces our gamelan ensamble is preparing for our next show on Sept. 5. It's a bit more complicated than what we've played in the past, but it's a fantastic piece and I'm excited to play it.

Today I'm playing gongs, but for the performance I'll probably play saron or demung.

There was a large variety of interesting decorative gingers for sale.

Gingers can get very large and out of control at my place, so I focus on edible and useful gingers: ginger, turmeric, cardamom, galangal, and shampoo ginger. My cardamom has yet to produce pods, but hopefully one day it will!

Here are some of the interesting plants I saw at the plant sale:

1) globba sherwoodiana "white dragon"
2) a variety of beehive gingers (fun fact: the beehive parts are bracts. You can see some of the small flowers popping out from the bracts)
3) a fuzzy giant heliconia (I had never seen a fuzzy heliconia before!)
4) no idea what this is, but it was bright and pretty

Ahora que va pasando el extraordinario periodo de ensalzamiento del #Papa #Francisco que ha estado acaparando toda la atención mediática, con exageradas alabanzas incluso desde sectores no especialmente religiosos, está bien hacer un pequeño análisis sobre su papado.
¡Dentro #hilo!

¿Que hace la clase media en #Venezuela ?

Pues como ganan de 1200 USD para arriba: son doctores, abogados, consultores, ingenieros, etc. Es decir, cargos "técnicos" ¿no? Hasta ahí normal.

El tema es que esos doctores son especialistas o cirujanos específicos rentables (cardiólogos, etc) y los abogados son quienes arreglan papeles de casas para venderlas y emigrar, los ingenieros programan freelance para 3 empresas de fuera y los consultores son de márketing digital
