I mentioned before that the music nominated for a Grammy streams (((for members only))) on iTunes. Unfortunately they have a rule to include only full and complete categories. Apparently someone in the New Age failed to give their permission and as a result none of the music in the New Age category is available for streaming. Which is unfortunate, I think, because how many members actually own or have heard the five albums nominated… I own excatly one album from that category, and I got that for free from SSRI for my involvement in the recording…

Nice article by Genpo Roshi in the current “Peace on the Street” issue of Tricycle. I love the painting by Chris Cosnowski at the beginning of the article, hence the title of this post.

Brian Eno believes in singing:
The Key to a Long Life
I believe that singing is the key to long life, a good figure, a stable temperament, increased intelligence, new friends, super self-confidence, heightened sexual attractiveness, and a better sense of humor. A recent long-term study conducted in Scandinavia sought to discover which activities related to a healthy and happy later life. Three stood out: camping, dancing and singing.
