About this blog

Untitled
Welcome!, This is blog specially dedicated to current, new, and old alumni and staff from Dubai American Academy. Now you might be asking why you shouldn't close this page right now. Well for one; Facebook is getting boring, and frankly sometimes if 50 people ask me "how are you?/how you been/how's life?" I get bored and annoyed typing, copying/pasting the same thing in every wall/inbox. Secondly, I figure this could be a place to see how those people you (used to) see-walking-in-the-hallway-pass-you-everyday-but-never-say-a-word-and-know-nothing-about-you are doing in life. Or if you simply want to share IB- Tips and cheats, funny stories, quotes, photos, videos, memories, current events and happenings, this would be the place to do it. At least... that's the idea...

Frédéric Chopin - Prelude in E-Minor (op.28 no. 4)

This is simply one of most beautiful musical pieces ever written. Most of all, it’s played in my favorite key. Who doesn’t love Chopin?

How to Use Reason 4’s Spider CV Merger & Splitter
“The ability to split and merge different sources of audio using the Spider Audio unit is useful indeed, but it’s the Spider CV unit that really allows users to explore new ideas and ways of manipulating sound. Let’s take a look at using this device to totally change the sound of our instrument devices.”

The Tudors, season 4
Totally read The Final Seduction to the tune of The Final Countdown. I think that song should be Henry’s theme song for the final season.

20 Unique and Weird Musical Instruments
“Everyone has an obsession. Some people love foreign films, others love porn (or satirical adult web series, and there are even a few oddballs who think that the key to happiness lies in a diverse and creative diet of  hamburgers. But perhaps one of the most understandable ‘obsessions’ in today’s world of complex technology and non-stop networking is music. After all, music has a unique way of getting down to the basics, stripping an emotion, a thought, a relationship, even a story down to a melody. Something we can tap our feet to. As Shakespeare scripted in Twelfth Night, ‘If music be the food of love, play on.’
“At KoldCast, we can’t help but agree with Shakespeare, and we bet that if he were still alive he’d be a big fan of our series “The Craft”. It may not feature Shakespearian language or archetypes, but it is a nuanced display of musicians from across the world. And, as a companion piece to “The Craft”, below we’ve compiled some of the most unique (and weirdest-looking) instruments known to man. Thou should take a look, and let us know thy thoughts in the comment section.”

Apple Thieves cut hole in roof and rappel down to steal 20 Apple laptops from a Best Buy, never touching the floor or setting off any motion detectors.

They never touched the floor — that would have set off an alarm. They didn’t appear on store security cameras. They cut a hole in the roof and came in at a spot where the cameras were obscured by advertising banners. They left with some $26,000 in laptop computers, departing the same way they came in — down a gas pipe that runs from the roof to the ground outside the store.

Nunkistar: Belief in the Brain: Sacred and secular ideas engage identical areas

Religious belief may seem to be a unique psychological experience, but a growing body of research shows that thinking about religion is no different from thinking about secular things —at least from the standpoint of the brain. In the first imaging study to compare religious and nonreligious…
