Only 13 percent of women can comfortably span an octave on a standard piano. Few thought to ask whether the piano was the problem.

Elizabeth Schumann spent most of her life believing she was one of the lucky ones. As a concert pianist, she could reach a tenth on the keyboard (10 white keys), a span that puts her in rare company, particularly among women. It wasn’t until she sat down at a piano with narrower keys that a different picture emerged.

“When I first tried the 6.0-inch octave – which is half an inch narrower per octave than the standard keyboard – I couldn’t believe it,” she said. “I felt like I’d been wearing the wrong size shoes my entire life. I genuinely couldn’t believe how much more ergonomic everything felt.”

Approach with moderate speed to ensure good helm authority.

About a boat length away turn hard away from the dock while shifting into reverse. Burst of throttle to kill forward motion. The neutral and allow boats momentum to carry it sideways towards the dock.

It is pretty difficult to futureproof your company against stupid.

This is exactly what the American automobile industry is facing as a result of President Trump’s gratuitous war against electric vehicles, which is forcing manufacturers to return to an increasingly outdated past. Ford Motor has mothballed production of the all-electric version of its flagship F-150 pickup truck and last month announced a $19.5 billion charge related to restructuring its E.V. business. General Motors, citing the loss of tax incentives for E.V. buyers and laxer pollution regulations, switched production at its Orion, Mich., plant from E.V.s to full-size S.U.V.s and pickups powered by internal combustion engines (ICE, in industry parlance). In doing so, G.M. last week announced that it was taking a $6 billion loss in the fourth quarter — on top of a similar $1.6 billion hit the quarter before...

Sorry this is so long, it is worth it.

Some certificate and DNS sleuthing has turned up the technological companion to the SAVE Act - an attempt to front end government agency websites with sites hosted and controlled by the Whitehouse. These front end sites are designed to pretend to be sites like vote.gov but will proxy the real vote.gov as necessary and will build a shadow copy of all your data. Registration data implies these are just weeks if not days old and will likely be launched soon in an effort to gather voter registration information and introduce chaos into voter rolls - causing certain voters to be deregistered. Also proxied are passports.gov, login.gov, socialsecurity.gov etc...

Alert your congressional representatives. More light makes this harder to pull off. Definitely an attack on election integrity happening now.

I have a Hammond XK-3C and I like the tactility of drawbars and physical switches.

But sometimes the VB3 is better at replicating a sound. I was psyched to find a hardware control mapping preset to Hammond XK-3 in the Expert panel of the VB3 and set it up. But it does nothing. Yes I can play it from the Hammond but no drawbars or other Leslie control mappings are working.

Anybody have this working? Is there a secret weird trick?
