JAKARTA – Nama Fahmi Nur Muhamad sebelumnya terkenal di Tiktok dalam grup Squad Gacor. Setelah viral dan terkenal, Fahmi NM kini berkolaborasi bersama Atta Halilintar dalam single Luka Terbaik.
“Aku kenal Fahmi sudah dari tahun lalu, karena dia masuk ke Viral Management punyaku. Pas melihat dia, aku tahu kalau dia punya potensi untuk nyanyi, karena suaranya bagus. Terus aku coba tanya, ‘Mi, mau nggak nyanyiin lagu ciptaanku?’” ucap Atta.
Ketika ditanya langsung ke Fahmi, ternyata ia pun menyambut baik ajakan Atta. “Sebenarnya sudah banyak juga yang nanya ke Fahmi, sebenarnya selain dance di Tiktok, ada keinginan lain lagi gak sih yang belum dijalankan. Fahmi bilang, kalau pengin banget jadi penyanyi. Kebetulan Bang Atta kasih tawaran untuk nyanyiin lagunya,” kata Fahmi.
Fahmi sempat ragu untuk membawakan lagu ciptaan Atta, karena lagunya galau dan melow. “Waktu dikasih dengar pertama kali, Fahmi suka lagunya tapi kurang bisa menjiwai. Jadinya kita belum ketemu titik sepakat untuk rekaman. Nah, pas di bulan Desember tahun lalu, aku lihat dia lagi galau nih, abis putus sama pacarnya. Aku kasih dengar lagi lagunya, langsung setuju buat rekaman,” jelas Atta.
Fahmi hanya tertawa saja kalau mengingat kejadian itu. Ia tidak menyangka kegalauannya ternyata bisa membuatnya berkarya. “Mungkin karena aku lagi galau, jadinya lagu LUKA TERBAIK masuk banget ke aku. Harusnya gak boleh gitu kan. Kalau mau jadi penyanyi profesional, apa pun mood kita, harus tetap profesional. Aku memang masih harus banyak belajar banyak. Mohon dukungannya,” kata Fahmi. Ke depannya, ia ingin agar Atta bisa membimbingnya untuk terus berkarya di dunia entertainment.

By definition, CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. A computer numerical control (CNC) machine is a tool that can be programmed to do its job over and over again without human intervention. This means not only can automatic machines run unattended, but they can also produce very complex parts in large volumes.
What is CNC milling and what are its applications?
CNC milling is a manufacturing process in which material is cut away by a rotating cutting tool, like a drill bit. With CNC Milling, it’s possible to create complex and intricate parts that couldn’t be otherwise produced by the traditional method of casting or stamping.
Examples of applications for CNC milling
CNC milling is used everywhere, from small businesses to large corporations. In fact, CNC milling is one of the most widely used manufacturing processes in industry today. Some job shops can have hundreds or even thousands of machine tools specifically for CNC Milling purposes.
How does a CNC mill work? – the basics
A CNC mill uses a series of linear axes and rotary axes just like a 3D printer does. The difference between the two is that the cutter on a CNC mill doesn’t move in any direction, it’s always rotating around its axis. A cutting tool attached to this rotating shaft is moved closer and closer to the material, which is held stationary, and cuts away the material. This is called subtractive manufacturing because one layer of material is reduced to reveal the next.
The different types of CNC mills
You can categorize CNC mills into two types, based on the motion of the cutter relative to the workpiece.
The first type is called a horizontal machining center (HMC) and it has one axis for moving the tool vertically or horizontally across the material. This means that all three-dimensional features must be carved into the surface before the HMC can make any cuts.
The second type is called a vertical machining center (VMC) and it has an additional rotating axis, which means the tool can make a pass along a surface to remove material while also making a cut from the side. This makes VMCs more efficient because they don’t have to carve out three-dimensional features first, but they still have to do a finishing pass from the back of the material.
For milling, as for turning and other processes, the CNC machine has a spindle with a cutter held rigidly in place by bearings and often additionally supported by a chip auger or some other means so it can remove material more efficiently.
How to choose the right CNC mill for your needs
CNC milling machines are offered with a range of work envelopes.
For example, you’ll need to look at the size of the smallest workpiece your machine can hold in order to determine if it’s small enough for your needs. Other factors include ease of use, reliability, power and overall capabilities compared to other CNC machines.
How much does it cost?
CNC milling machines range from $1,000 to as much as $100,000, depending on what you need them for and how big they are. There can also be additional expenses, such as tooling and software.
What’s the bottom line? If you’re just getting into machining, a small manual milling machine, or a bench top milling machine, can be a good investment. If you’re looking to do large-scale projects, such as airplane wings and engine parts, you’ll need something larger and more expensive.
Tips on using and maintaining a CNC mill
For safety purposes, always wear goggles and ear protection when using a CNC milling machine. Keep your hands away from the cutting area, or use cut-off gloves if you need to adjust something on the spindle.
When lining up pieces for work, make sure that they are secure and at right angles to each other so there is no risk of them slipping while you cut. After cutting a piece, make sure to turn the milling machine off before removing it.
Keeping the machine in good condition will ensure that it functions properly. After every hour of use, clean the machine, oil all moving parts and make sure bolts are secure.
Conclusion
A CNC mill can change your life if you’re into boatbuilding or hobbyist woodworking, and they are invaluable tools for prototyping and design work in industrial settings. Used correctly, they can pay for themselves in a short time.

Con una foto della sua piccolina e una dedica speciale, arriva l’annuncio della nascita su Instagram. È poetica Levante, proprio come nelle sue occasioni. E non poteva esserlo soprattutto in questa occasione. E ai suoi follower spiega la scelta del nome.
«Il 13 Febbraio è nata Alma Futura», inizia Levante l’annuncio della splendida notizia. Poi spiega a tutti la scelta di un nome che non può essere come gli altri: «Anima gentile, che ha attraversato il mio grembo rendendomi una madre (e una amazzone) fortunata. Nella stanza in cui ci troviamo stiamo vivendo una sorta di realtà aumentata e felicità esponenziale. Non mi ero mai sentita così terrena e celeste allo stesso tempo».
Dopo Levante ci tiene a ringraziare tutti coloro che hanno fatto parte di questo splendido viaggio che, in realtà, è appena iniziato: «Grazie Pietro per questo viaggio, grazie al Dottor Franco Vicariotto, alla Capostetrica Stefania Del Duca, alla Dottoressa Enrica Demaria, ad Aurelia e Irene, a tutte le donne in sala parto che hanno fatto il tifo per me e per Alma».
«È stato un momento indimenticabile. Grazie al reparto di ostetricia e ginecologia Humanitas San Pio X, ci siamo sentiti sempre protetti e amati. Ecco il tuo nome ti chiamerai Alma Futura», conclude Levante.

Sanremo 2022 vendite. Il Festival è stato un successo televisivo con numeri da capogiro e serate con oltre il 65% di share. Ma siccome il punto focale della manifestazione è la musica è importante vedere come, dopo una settimana, si sta muovendo il mercato delle canzoni che hanno partecipato alla Kermesse messa in piedi da AMADEUS III.
Partiamo ricordando un dato importante: ad ottobre 2021 le vendite di Sanremo 2021 (detto anche AMADEUS II) era superiori a 1.855.000 copie/Unità, una cifra che, tenendo conto dei Festival dell’epoca FIMI (dal 2010 in poi) lo collocava al primo posto con più del doppio di copie certificate rispetto al secondo (ovvero il secondo Festival di Claudio Baglioni).
E le vendite Sanremo 2022 come sono partite?
Sanremo 2022 vendite
Partiamo con una previsione… AMADEUS III batterà AMADEUS II. La partenza è infatti già col botto.
Come fa notare Enzo Mazza, CEO della FIMI, infatti solo nella settimana del Festival secondo i dati di GfK, sono stati quasi 1 miliardo 200.000 gli stream delle 25 canzoni in gara a Sanremo… ben il 21% in più rispetto al 2021. Un successo che ha visto già tre canzoni del Festival (di cui solo una tra quelle arrivate sul podio) conquistare una certificazione questa settimana nonostante l’innalzamento delle quote da 35.000 a 50.000 copie per il disco d’oro e da 70.000 a 100.000 per quello di platino.
Mahmood e Blanco, i vincitori di Sanremo 2022 hanno infatti già conquistato il disco di platino con la loro Brividi. Disco d’oro invece per la super ballad Ovunque sarai di Irama (4a classificata) e il tormentone Ciao ciao de La Rappresentante di lista (settimi nella classifica generale).
E siamo certi che è solo l’inizio visto che la Top 20 dei singoli FIMI dello scorso venerdì si è chiusa con le prime 16 posizioni occupate tutte da brani di Sanremo 2022, quella di Spotify con le prime 15 posizioni 100% Sanremo e che in radio, secondo i dati EarOne, non solo il podio è tutto Sanremese ma ben 19 brani su 25 sono presenti nella Top 50.
Insomma, forse con questi numeri sarebbe il caso che AMADEUS III inizia a dare il benvenuto ad AMADEUS IV.

E siamo certi che è solo l’inizio visto che la Top 20 dei singoli FIMI dello scorso venerdì si è chiusa con le prime 16 posizioni occupate tutte da brani di Sanremo 2022, quella di Spotify con le prime 15 posizioni 100% Sanremo e che in radio, secondo i dati EarOne, non solo il podio è tutto Sanremese ma ben 19 brani su 25 sono presenti nella Top 50.
Insomma, forse con questi numeri sarebbe il caso che AMADEUS III inizia a dare il benvenuto ad AMADEUS IV.

Uno de los acontecimientos más celebrados de las últimas ferias E3 es cuando una estrella mediática aparece en alguna de las presentaciones de la feria. Se ha convertido en algo habitual que ha dejado para el recuerdo imágenes de lo más icónicas.
Todos tenemos grabado en la retina, sin ir más lejos, la aparición sorpresa de Keanu Reeves durante la E3 2019 para presentar Cyberpunk 2077. Como igualmente memorables fueron las apariciones de Snoop Dogg entre bambalinas jugando a Battlefield 1, el homenaje a Pelé en la conferencia de Electronic Arts en 2015 nos dejó uno de los invitados más curiosos, pero Steven Spielberg apadrinando Kinect en 2009 o la inesperada irrupción de Yoko Ono en la presentación de The Beatles: Rock Band tampoco se quedan atrás. Estas apariciones estelares son algo relativamente reciente. Sin embargo, ya a principios de siglo se empezaba a notar esta tendencia. Una de las primeras celebridades en protagonizar uno de estos momentos, así como también uno de los más sonados, fue Dwayne Johnson, alias “The Rock”, quien apareció en el escenario del Computer Entertainment Show de Las Vegas junto a Bill Gates, dispuesto a presentar al mundo la Xbox original.
Hagamos un poco de historia. Cuando en Microsoft decidieron dar luz verde al proyecto Xbox, a finales del siglo pasado, sus responsables trataron de llevarlo adelante en el mayor de los secretismos. Para su desgracia, las filtraciones fueron constantes. Rara vez pudieron celebrar una presentación ante la prensa sin que los detalles se hubieran difundido con horas de antelación. Fue el caso, por ejemplo, de su anuncio oficial en marzo del año 2000, cuando Bill Gates y Seamus Blackley, principal ideólogo del sistema, aparecieron en el escenario del GDC con el famoso prototipo en forma de equis plateada. En el evento, espectacular a todas luces, Gates pudo mostrar sus primeras demostraciones técnicas y dar algunos detalles sobre su estrategia comercial. Desgraciadamente no consiguieron el golpe de efecto que deseaban, ya que la prensa, días antes de la presentación, ya había informado de los rumores que hablaban de la irrupción de Microsoft en la industria del videojuego doméstico.
En Microsoft no se rindieron, decididos a mantener el resto de detalles en secreto durante todo lo que quedaba de año. Su objetivo era presentar el modelo final de consola, junto a sus últimas especificaciones técnicas, durante el Computer Entertainment Show de Las Vegas celebrado a principios de 2001. Su equipo de desarrollo estaba expectante por mostrar al mundo el diseño final de la videoconsola, con sus característicos colores verdes. Por lo que prepararon una gran conferencia planificada para el 6 de enero de 2001 en el lujoso hotel Hilton. Por desgracia, una vez más, todos aquellos detalles se filtraron sin remedio. El completo dossier con todas las especificaciones del sistema que había preparado el equipo de marketing de Microsoft apareció en Internet cuatro días antes del evento. El culpable: un empleado de la copistería a la que encargaron las copias del dossier, quien lo escaneó y distribuyó por Internet,
La sorpresa se echó a perder. Aunque en palabras de John O’Rourke, líder de marketing del proyecto entonces, “(…) fue una increíble bendición porque terminó dándonos como dos o tres ciclos de noticias alrededor del anuncio”. En Microsoft, aún así, deseaban que la presentación fuera un bombazo. Y ya que no podrían sorprender al público con el qué, optaron por el quién.
Debido a sus malos resultados, que acabaron con su desaparición en 2003, Acclaim perdió la licencia de la WWF (la actual WWE) a finales del siglo pasado. La corporación de lucha libre profesional más popular del mundo era una franquicia que siempre había funcionado muy bien en los videojuegos, por lo que el testigo lo tomó la californiana y desaparecida THQ, que aprovechó para inundar el mercado, en solo un par de años, de títulos basados en sus famosas series Raw y Smackdown. En ambos shows se dejaba ver a menudo por entonces Dwayne Johnson, que bajo el apodo The Rock, había protagonizado espectaculares combates contra campeones de la talla de Triple H, el Enterrador o Stone Cold Steve Austin. Su popularidad era tal, que ya había protagonizado portadas de algunos de estos videojuegos, como WWF No Mercy o WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It.
THQ era una de las empresas que habían firmado con Microsoft para desarrollar videojuegos exclusivos para Xbox. Y precisamente uno de sus primeros proyectos fue uno de estos videojuegos basados en la WWF, el cual aparecería un año más tarde bajo el nombre WWF Raw. Así que, como favor personal, el CEO de THQ, Brian Farrell, lo organizó todo para que The Rock pudiera asistir al evento de presentación de Xbox. Lo cual fue toda una sorpresa, sobre todo cuando Johnson, imponente con sus casi dos metros de altura, apareció junto al enjuto en comparación Bill Gates. Fiel a su personaje en todo momento, Johnson tomó la voz cantante en la presentación, cantando las alabanzas no solo de la consola, sino también del propio Gates, quien aseguraba que, al igual que él, estaba “en lo más alto de sus respectivas industrias”. El diálogo entre ambos tiraba de tópicos, pero aún así arrancó las risotadas de la prensa. En especial cuando, fiel a su perfil en la WWF, The Rock hizo callar a Bill Gates, “¡a nadie le importa lo que pienses, Bill!” para inmediatamente disculparse alegando que “es la fuerza de la costumbre”.
La presentación en sociedad de Xbox fue un rotundo éxito. Todavía a día de hoy, veinte años más tarde, se recuerda el evento. El mismo Johnson, por ejemplo, rememoraba aquel momento en su cuenta personal de Twitter hace unas semanas. Pero lo más importante es que Microsoft consiguió lo que quería: dejar huella con su presentación. Aquella semana no se habló de otra cosa en la prensa. La estrategia de marketing funcionó a las mil maravillas. Todo el mundo acabó encantado. O no todo el mundo, porque Farrell, el CEO de THQ, lo había organizado todo con la intención de que hablasen de sus proyectos durante susodicha presentación. Pero Gates no dijo absolutamente nada del inminente WWF Raw. Sobre esto, Farrell aseguró: “Les rasque su espalda y la mía todavía me pica”.
El resto es historia. Microsoft consiguió vender unos veinticuatro millones de consolas, lo que es una cifra de lo más respetable para una consola que arranca. Siempre y cuando no la comparemos con los ciento cincuenta millones de PlayStation 2, a la que siempre consideraron su principal rival en cuestiones de tiempo y ciclos de hardware. Lo importante es que era el primer paso de Microsoft en una industria en la que muchos aseguraban que fracasaría. Y no solo no fallaron, sino que se mantuvieron, y siguen manteniéndose, como uno de los colosos absolutos del mercado del videojuego.

A key example is unconventional — such as high-temperature — superconductivity, which does not follow the conventional laws of superconductivity. Most superconducting materials exhibit their seemingly magical property of zero resistance at a few degrees Kelvin: temperatures that are simply impractical for most applications. Materials that exhibit so-called ‘high-temperature’ superconductivity, at temperatures achievable with liquid nitrogen cooling (or even at room temperature), are a tantalising prospect. Finding and synthesising new materials that exhibit unconventional superconductivity has become the condensed matter physicist’s Holy Grail — but getting there involves a deeper understanding ofexotic, topological electronic behaviour in materials.
An exotic type of electron transport behaviour that results in a spontaneous flow of charge in loops has long been debated as a precursor to high-temperature superconductivity and as a mechanism behind another mysterious phenomenon: the quantum anomalous Hall effect. This topological effect, the subject of F. Duncan M. Haldane’s 2016 Nobel Prize winning work, occurs in certain two-dimensional electronic materials and relates to the generation of a current even in the absence of an applied magnetic field. Understanding the quantum anomalous Hall effect is important not only for fundamental physics, but also for the potential applications in novel electronics and devices. Now, a PSI-led international collaboration has discovered strong evidence supporting this elusive electron transport behaviour.
Time-reversal symmetry-breaking charge ordering in the kagome superconductorKV3Sb5
The team, led by researchers from PSI’s Laboratory for Muon Spin Spectroscopy, discovered weak internal magnetic fields indicative of an exotic charge ordering in a correlated kagome superconductor. These magnetic fields break so-called time-reversal symmetry, a type of symmetry that means that the laws of physics are the same whether you look at a system going forward or backward in time.
A natural explanation of the occurrence of time-reversal symmetry-breaking fields is a novel type of charge order. The charge ordering can be understood as a periodic modulation of the electron density through the lattice and rearrangement of the atoms into a higher-order (superlattice) structure. The team focused their study on the kagome lattice, KV3Sb5, which superconducts below 2.5 Kelvin. Below a higher critical temperature of approximately 80 Kelvin, a giant quantum anomalous Hall effect is observed in the material, which was previously unexplained. The exotic charge ordering appears below this critical temperature of approximately 80 Kelvin, termed the ‘charge ordering temperature’.
The discovered time-reversal symmetry-breaking fields implies an exotic type of charge order where currents move around the unit cells of the kagome lattice, known as orbital currents. These produce magnetism dominated by the extended orbital motion of the electrons in a lattice of atoms.
“Experimental realization of this phenomenon is exceptionally challenging, as materials exhibiting orbital currents are rare and the characteristic signals [of orbital currents] are often too weak to be detected,” explains corresponding author, Zurab Guguchia, from the Lab of Muon Spin Spectroscopy at PSI, who led the team.
Although previous studies have shown the breaking of time-reversal symmetry below the superconducting temperature, this is the first example in which time-reversal symmetry is broken by charge order. This means that this putative exotic charge order classes as a new quantum phase of matter.
An extremely convincing piece of evidence
To search for the long disputed orbital currents, the physicists used highly sensitive muon spin rotation/relaxation spectroscopy (µSR) to detect the weak, tell-tale magnetic signals that they would generate. Muons implanted into the sample serve as a local and highly sensitive magnetic probe to the internal field of the material, enabling magnetic fields as small as 0.001 µBohr to be detected. In the presence of an internal magnetic field, the muon spin depolarises. The muons decay into energetic positrons, which are emitted along the direction of the muon spin, carrying with them information on the muon spin polarisation in the local environment.
The researchers observed how, as the temperature is decreased to below 80K, the charge ordering temperature, a systematic shift in the magnetic signal appeared. Using the world’s most advanced µSR facility at PSI, which enables application of fields up to 9.5 Tesla, the team could use an external high magnetic field to enhance the shift in the tiny internal magnetic fields and provide even stronger evidence that the magnetic field was due to internal orbital currents.
“We first performed the experiment with no external field,” explains Dr. Guguchia, “and when we saw the systematic shift appear below the charge ordering temperature, we felt very motivated to continue. But when we then applied the high field and could promote this electronic response, we were delighted. It’s a very, very convincing piece of evidence for something that has remained elusive for a long time.”
A deeper understanding of unconventional superconductivity and the quantum anomalous Hall effect
The research provides arguably the strongest evidence yet that long debated orbital currents actually exist in the kagome material KV3Sb5. Theory suggests that the quantum anomalous Hall effect originates from orbital currents. Therefore, orbital currents have been proposed in a number of unconventional superconductors that exhibit a strangely large quantum anomalous Hall effect; namely graphene, cuprates and kagome lattices, but actual evidence that they existed had been missing until now.
The discovery of time-reversal symmetry-breaking fields, which imply orbital currents — and the peculiar charge ordering that gives rise to them, opens doors to exotic avenues of physics and next-generation device research. Orbital currents are considered to play a fundamental role in the mechanism of various unconventional transport phenomena including high-temperature superconductivity, with applications from power transmission to MAGLEV trains. The concept of orbital currents also forms the basis of orbitronics — an area that exploits the orbital degree of freedom as an information carrier in solid-state devices.
This work was carried out in collaboration with the group of Zahid Hasan at Princeton University, in which Guguchia is a visiting scientist, and with other colleagues from the University of Zürich Physics Institute, Institute of Physics Chinese Academy of Sciences, Songshan Lake Materials Laboratory in China, Renmin University of China, Rice University, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, University of Würzburg and Max-Planck-Institut für Festkörperforschung.

Zendaya glams up with the other Euphoria ladies… and says there’s hope for her heroin-addicted character Rue in episode eight
By Cassie Carpenter For Dailymail.Com
Published: | Updated:
Euphoria producer-star Zendaya reunited with five of her female castmates to chat season two of the hit HBO teen drama and get glam for the cover of The Cut’s February fashion issue.

For his first appearance at the Geffen Playhouse in more than a decade, Tony and Emmy winner Bryan Cranston is taking on yet another juicy role that allows him to blur the lines between virtuous and ruthless.
In Paul Grellong’s Power of Sail, Cranston plays Charles Nichols, a renowned Harvard history professor under fire for inviting a white supremacist to speak at his yearly symposium. Unfolding in a non-linear fashion, the chilling drama, which also features Amy Brenneman, Seth Numrich, and Brandon Scott, under the direction of Weyni Mengesha, exists in a world very much like ours, where personal gain is prioritized over integrity and the question of whether or not hate speech is free speech hangs like a cloud in the air.
Even for Cranston, who has made a career of playing difficult characters of ambiguous morality, Power of Sail has been a tough one to crack, mostly because the play, the pandemic, and the ongoing social unrest, has really made him reconsider his place in the social structure of the world. But if there’s anyone up for the challenge, it’s him.
This conversation has been condensed and edited for clarity.
Way back before Covid, you were supposed to be directing something at the Geffen, but that morphed into you acting in Power of Sail. Tell me about that trajectory. I had gotten a call from Matt Shakman, the artistic director, who asked me to come back and do something for the 25th anniversary season, because I’m an alumnus. I did God of Hell, the Sam Shepard play, back in 2006 just after I had finished Malcom in the Middle. I’ve directed one-acts, but never a fully staged play, so I was hunting for something to direct that really caught my eye. I kind of wanted to do a comedy, because I’ve been doing a lot of dramas recently, but I didn’t want to do a slamming-door comedy. I wanted something that had some bite to it.
Then it dawned on me: what about The Foreigner by Larry Shue? I remember seeing that play because my friend Patricia Kalember was in the original production. It’s hilarious and we’re laughing at the hateful ideology of the KKK and white supremacy, and all that stuff. We started thinking about how I would want to do it, and then the pandemic hit, and then George Floyd’s murder, and, before that, Charlottesville.
Almost immediately, it was like, “I don’t think this works anymore.” I had to accept my white privilege and the blind spots in my life by saying, “Well, sure, it’s easy for me to laugh at the hateful ideology of white supremacists and the KKK because I am not affected by them.” I had the luxury of doing that, and that’s not acceptable. It’s not funny. The Foreigner became the proverbial dated material.
I told Matt that it wasn’t my time — if we’re truly looking at developing equality, I’m going to step aside for emerging BIPOC voices in the theater and really make that space. If they find something that they need an old white guy to be in, I can facilitate that to help the cause, but it’s not for me to jump to the head of the line. So we started looking for a couple of other things, and then my assistant said, “What about that play John Krasinski sent us?”
And that was Power of Sail. John sent it to me when I was doing Network. When you’re doing a play, the last thing in the world you want is to think about another play. But he wrote to me and said, “I thought of you when I read this.” It’s very challenging, and another damaged character, which is exactly what I was expecting and is kind of in my wheelhouse. I guess I love characters that are not all good or all bad. I just relate to it.
Matt connected with Paul Grellong, the playwright, and pretty soon, it was a selection. We wanted a woman of color to direct us to really bring out all of the sides in it, and Weyni Mengesha is fabulous. She has such a beautiful comportment to her, in the sense that she never gets riled. She has a calm, nurturing sensibility, and she cuts to the chase. And she’s not afraid of the challenge.
I imagine it is a challenge — it’s a tough little puzzle of a play. I read it, and then had to reread it to see how all the parts fit together. When it was done at the Warehouse Theatre in South Carolina, Mike Sablone, who is the artistic director and is one of our producing consultants, said that it was the first time in his experience that he ever had returning customers who came back just for the fact of figuring out, to see if they could track this. It’s like a runaway train for me. Once the play starts, for the next 80 minutes, I’m going crazy. And then I get a break to get a drink of water and calm down for a second.
And the story is so current it could have been on the news last night. When I first read it, which was about this time in 2019, it was pre-pandemic, pre-BLM…Was this subject around? Yeah, of course. Was it seen? No. We hadn’t been enlightened. The process of selecting this play and bringing it to life really opened my eyes to my own blindness. I’ve lived 65 years under a certain belief system that I was taught or that I learned through my environment or education, whatever, and it belies an undercurrent of truth. That we don’t thoroughly go in and dissect the structures of how this country was created and the systemic racism that has always been there is astonishing to me.
What do you want people to feel and talk about when they see this play? In this play, my character’s argument is pretty sound. And it does, nightly, get appreciation for the argument about free speech and open debate. “You have to support it even if you don’t agree with it.” How many times have we heard that? “We should all be willing to listen to an opinion that’s not my own.”
And then there’s hate speech and deniers of truth. We’re experiencing that now, as we see. “The election was stolen?” This is a lie and you’re perpetuating that lie. Should we give the person who spews that lie amplification to once again tell that lie? At one point in the play, my character is talking to his protege about the “paradox of tolerance.” When do we give someone a voice and when should we restrict it? I say, “The answer to hate speech is more speech.” And he says, “The answer to Nazis is clubs and bats.” And then I say, “But what’s the real answer?” And we don’t know.
We always want the finish of a play to be the continuation of a discussion, and hopefully our play creates that. This is intended to make people discuss, maybe even argue, on their way out, and hopefully they can’t shake it. I don’t want people to go “Let’s get a drink and think about it tomorrow.” This brings it to the surface. This is the way to open people’s eyes and make people see.

“It’s exciting. It’s one thing to hear it in your head and capture what’s in your head on paper. But it’s another level when performers bring what is written on paper to sound and make music. It’s always a beautiful surprise in how it comes out,” said Washington, who earned his master’s degree in music composition from the University of Northern Iowa School of Music. In 2019, Washington’s piece, “American Pastorale,” was premiered by the Northern Iowa Youth Orchestra.
Composer Denzel Washington works with the Wartburg Community Symphony on his commissioned, ‘A Hope for a New Morning,’ which will be premiered in concert Feb. 19.
“Music Works” is theme for the Saturday concert celebrating Black History Month in Wartburg College’s Neumann Auditorium. It opens with Edvard Grieg’s “Peer Gynt Suite I” and “In the Hall of the Mountain King,” as well as works by Black composers William Grant Still and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Guest artist Clare Longendyke also will perform Piano Concerto in One Movement by female African-American composer Florence Price.

A pre-concert talk begins at 1 p.m., featuring Wartburg Community Symphony Conductor Rebecca Nederhiser and Washington.
Washington drew inspiration from Psalm 30:5: “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”
“The music is designed to evoke a sense of hope that there will be a new morning. The last couple of years, families have been kept apart, masks-no-masks, politics, anxiety feels like it’s been higher than it’s ever been, so I want this piece to be a small reminder that there’s more than tonight – there is still a God who is there in the morning,” explained Washington, 27, who earned a bachelor of arts in music degree from Mercer University in Macon, Ga.

The melody came from “doodling around” on a tin whistle, he said. “I liked it and had to figure out how to create music out of it. Composers have different tools they can use – repetition, variation, texture change – to bring an idea to life.”
Washington describes the piece as reflective and peaceful.
A grant from the Guernsey Charitable Foundation made it possible to commission the work, Nederhiser said. “It’s cool to be able to commission a work and part of our mission to support local composers. It’s really important to commission work and it needs to be a reflection of our larger community. When the audience can see themselves on stage, it allows them to feel more included. It encourages aspiration and inspiration.”
She’s also excited to conduct a new piece with the orchestra. Washington attended a rehearsal and worked with musicians for about an hour. “Orchestras don’t usually get to interact with a composer, to ask questions – ‘are we playing how you meant?’ – and share fun facts about creating the creative process, which makes it so much more meaningful,” Nederhiser explained.
“And I think, too it gives more credence to how much responsibility we have to play what is on the page and be true to the composer’s vision.”
Washington’s wife, Bethany, is concertmaster with the orchestra. “This is my first time working with them in my capacity as a composer. I recently played saxophone on their Christmas concert.”
Music is a shared experience, Washington said. His ultimate goal is to “use the gifts God gave me to create works that will continue to bless people year after year.”
And about that first name: “Yes, my mom named me after the actor Denzel Washington. I find great joy in it. It’s actually an easy conversation starter,” Washington added, with a laugh.
Begonia “Viking Explorer Rose on Green” — This trailing begonia “explores” the garden by spreading and spilling its branches over the edges of hanging baskets and containers. Prolific rose-colored flowers stand out against the glossy green foliage and do so all season long. It has a strong tolerance to heat & many diseases, as well as both wet & dry conditions.

AAS PHOTO
Tomato-Pink-Delicious-logo.png
Tomato “Pink Delicious” — This early maturing tomato supports the trend of having heirloom look, flavor and texture with hybrid disease resistance and improved germination, definitely earlier with a higher yield and a very uniform fruit size.

Overall, a much better purple color than comparisons with above average, robust pepper flavor.
AAS PHOTO
Pepper-Buffy_Logo.png
Pepper “Buffy F1” — This hot pepper will do right by you by producing a good yield of juicy, thick-walled green to red fruits on strong, healthy upright plants.

Sunflower “Concert Bell” F1 — “Concert Bell” puts on quite a performance with a unique flower presentation of multiple clusters of 10 to 12 flowers on an erect columnar stem. Beautiful golden yellow blooms appear earlier than the comparisons. Each plant grows to a very uniform height of 5 to 6 feet and if used as a cut flower, makes an instant, ready-made bouquet from just one cut.

It’s always a beautiful surprise in how it comes out,” said Washington, who earned his master’s degree in music composition from the University of Northern Iowa School of Music. In 2019, Washington’s piece, “American Pastorale,” was premiered by the Northern Iowa Youth Orchestra.
Composer Denzel Washington works with the Wartburg Community Symphony on his commissioned, ‘A Hope for a New Morning,’ which will be premiered in concert Feb. 19.
“Music Works” is theme for the Saturday concert celebrating Black History Month in Wartburg College’s Neumann Auditorium. It opens with Edvard Grieg’s “Peer Gynt Suite I” and “In the Hall of the Mountain King,” as well as works by Black composers William Grant Still and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Guest artist Clare Longendyke also will perform Piano Concerto in One Movement by female African-American composer Florence Price.

A pre-concert talk begins at 1 p.m., featuring Wartburg Community Symphony Conductor Rebecca Nederhiser and Washington.
Washington drew inspiration from Psalm 30:5: “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”
“The music is designed to evoke a sense of hope that there will be a new morning. The last couple of years, families have been kept apart, masks-no-masks, politics, anxiety feels like it’s been higher than it’s ever been, so I want this piece to be a small reminder that there’s more than tonight – there is still a God who is there in the morning,” explained Washington, 27, who earned a bachelor of arts in music degree from Mercer University in Macon, Ga.

The melody came from “doodling around” on a tin whistle, he said. “I liked it and had to figure out how to create music out of it. Composers have different tools they can use – repetition, variation, texture change – to bring an idea to life.”
Washington describes the piece as reflective and peaceful.
A grant from the Guernsey Charitable Foundation made it possible to commission the work, Nederhiser said. “It’s cool to be able to commission a work and part of our mission to support local composers. It’s really important to commission work and it needs to be a reflection of our larger community. When the audience can see themselves on stage, it allows them to feel more included. It encourages aspiration and inspiration.”
She’s also excited to conduct a new piece with the orchestra. Washington attended a rehearsal and worked with musicians for about an hour. “Orchestras don’t usually get to interact with a composer, to ask questions – ‘are we playing how you meant?’ – and share fun facts about creating the creative process, which makes it so much more meaningful,” Nederhiser explained.
“And I think, too it gives more credence to how much responsibility we have to play what is on the page and be true to the composer’s vision.”
Washington’s wife, Bethany, is concertmaster with the orchestra. “This is my first time working with them in my capacity as a composer. I recently played saxophone on their Christmas concert.”
Music is a shared experience, Washington said. His ultimate goal is to “use the gifts God gave me to create works that will continue to bless people year after year.”
And about that first name: “Yes, my mom named me after the actor Denzel Washington. I find great joy in it. It’s actually an easy conversation starter,” Washington added, with a laugh.
