O’boy ist ein schwedisches Kakaopulver aus dem Hause Marabou – was eigentlich in keinem Zusammenhang zu Miss Li steht. Nur dass der erste Song auf dem Album dieser jungen Dame “Oh Boy” heißt und Miss Li – eigentlich Linda Carlsson – ebenfalls schwedisch ist. Diese Herkunftsgeschichte scheint ihrerseits auch nicht in Zusammenhang zu dem zu stehen, was auf ihrem Debüt geschieht – außer vielleicht zu dem Gummistiefel auf der Coverrückseite. Und dieser tiefe Wunsch nach Fröhlichkeit, der mit Polkabläsern über die Verzweiflung und Traurigkeit gepumpt wird, die ebenfalls ins Miss Lis Liedern steckt: Vielleicht ist das das Schwedische an sich. Friska Viljor haben gezeigt, warum das Kindliche, das fröhlich vor sich Hinspackende unbedingt Teil der Musik sein sollten, auch wenn sie gar nicht so unbeschwert gemeint ist. Miss Li hat das in ihren klimperlichen Liedchen zwischen Jazz und Pop, Musical und Drogensoul berücksichtigt, auch wenn sie nicht ganz zum genialen Wahnsinn ihrer Landsleute aufschließen kann. (kab)

Oh boy
You make me feel like
Oh boy
You make me feel like
No boy
Can make me feel like you
I really really want you

Oh boy
You make me feel so
Oh boy
You really turned me
On boy
And I don´t know what to do
I really really want to..

..be with you
like I was before
This distance
between us makes me want you more

And I do mean
you are the cutest boy I’ve ever seen
and you’ve got that something
something that I want
something that I need
a dirty little young girls dream

I said that..
Oh boy
You make me feel like
Oh boy
You make me feel like
No boy
Can make me feel like you
I really really want you

Oh boy
You make me feel so
Oh boy
You really turned me
On boy
and I don’t know what to do
I really really wanna

..make me swirl
like a tiny little pearl
I will patiently wait
‘Til you’re done
with this other girl

and I don’t care
about your so damn good excuses
cus’ they’ve turned me on
They turned me strong,
turned me on,
you know just how to light my fuses

I said
Oh boy
You make me feel like
oh boy
You make me feel like
No boy
can make me feel like you

I had a strange error using the GroupLayout in my Java GUI. It told me
GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time
The solution was to replace
GroupLayout layout = new GroupLayout(this);
with
GroupLayout layout = new GroupLayout(getContentPane());
as I found here.

Live in Concert -  Christmas Special  The ORIGINAL GENTLEMEN Swinging on Stage

Das wollten Sie schon immer mal hören: unsere schönen, deutschen Weihnachtslieder im Swingrhythmus. Die Gentlemen spielen zur Adventszeit eigens arrangierte Weihnachtslieder und klassischen Swing.

Die Herren mit den grauen Schläfen in silbergrauen Westen haben eine bunte Mischung – ihren persönlichen “Weihnachtsgebäckteller” vorbereitet. Wenn diese vier Herren auftreten, macht sich eine swingende, elegante Atmosphäre breit

Songs aus der Swingära wechseln sich ab mit ” Oh Tannenbaum”, “Ihr Kinderlein kommet” und vielen anderen weihnachtlichen und adventlichen Liedern.

Ein Konzert der anderen Art zur Adventszeit.

Swingen Sie sich über den Dächern der Messestadt in Weihnachtsvorfreude

The ORIGINAL GENTLEMEN sind aus einer spontanen Begegnung entstanden und musizieren aus reiner Lust und Freude am Swing seit 1998 miteinander – nach dem Motte: ORIGINAL GENTLEMEN „swinging on stage“.

The ORIGINAL GENTLEMEN sind:

* Charly Hahn – langjähriger Soloklarinettist der Münchner Philharmoniker (clarinette und as.)

* Franz Winklhofer (piano)

* Peter Ploppa (bass)

* Rolf Häusele (drums)

Eintritt: 11 €, ermäßigt 9 € incl. ein Begrüßungsgetränk.

Kartenreservierung unter (089) 99 88 68 932.

…in Vollendung….,

Ob Richard Thompson der beste Gitarrist der Welt ist, wie Lindwurm sagt, lassen wir mal dahingestellt, wenn wir Tommy Emmanuel gehört haben.

Today I love…

1. Watching New Moon with the girls and squeeing over the many hot, shirtless men

2. Dinner at the Phoenix Cafe: a little expensive, but good food!

3. Swing quad!

4. Watching EC and LC perform at the Rocky Horror Picture Show–aaaaaah! SO FANTASTIC!

brad terry is a great friend of mine, who i’ve spoken to at length about both his and my own music. i’ve played with him, and listened to him play, and it’s always a pleasure. brad’s in poland right now, on a promotional tour for a new cd, and he sent this amazing video to me. i hope it gets some of you looking for brad and buying his cds – he’s a wonderful musician and one of the best people i know, and his name should be heard more often.

this is the link, to vimeo.com:

i hope you all check this out, and if you haven’t heard brad terry’s amazing talents before, i also hope that this sparks some interest!

Enfim terminamos mais um projeto da faculdade. No início eu não tinha gostado da proposta gráfica, mas o resultado final promete ficar muito bom. O tema da revista era noite. Minha matéria foi sobre o Sofazão e troca de casais. Seguem as páginas, ganhei as centrais!

Crédito para as minhas ajudantes Camila Genz e Laura Simon. A primeira foto é pela proposta da mudança de conceitos nas relações. As outras duas foram boladas a partir da ideia de sombras (afinal, quem vai no Sofazão, na maioria das vezes, vai pela sombra, é um outro lado da pessoa). Fizemos bonequinhos de papel e projetamos com uma luz na parede. Assim, as imagens são das sombras dos desenhos.

This is just a list of a few things that I couldn’t have lived without.  And some things I did live without, but wished I would have had!  And a few things I think aren’t necessary!  Most of these are 0-6 month products.  I’ll post later on 6 months and up!

Germ-x: Everyone should have a big dispenser right by the front door.  Those first few days with people coming in and out, you will definately want them to use it before touching the baby!

Microwave bottle sterilizer:  It’s so much easier than boiling everything in a big pot of water!

If you plan on using a pack n play with the bassinet for the baby to sleep in while staying in your room I recommend getting one with the changing table on it.  We had one and it made night time diaper changes so much easier.  We didn’t have to take her to the nursery every time we needed to change her diaper.  We never used a co-sleeper because our bed isn’t big enough to fit one in between us and I didn’t want her to get used to sleeping with us.  But, I’ve seen some pretty nice ones out there.  I would definately recommend looking for one with high sides (some even have night lights on them) that will be safe for being in your bed!

Some kind of sling or carrier.  I never found one that I really loved.  The one sling I bought I didn’t like because when I put her in it she was completely enclosed so I couldn’t see her.  We used the backpack type carrier for her at the grocery store when she was smaller because she didn’t like the carseat at all.

Cloth Diapers: Just to use them for burp rags!  We went through tons of burp rags when Lexi first came home from the hospital.  I ended up having to go buy more so I wouldn’t have to do laundry every day.  I prefer the single layer ones, the other thicker ones don’t fold up as good and take up more room in the dresser.  My mom still has cloth diapers that she uses for dusting…so you will ALWAYS be able to use them!

The whole carseat/travel system thing.  I LOVE the fact that the carseat snaps onto the base in the car and you don’t have to fumble with the seatbelt every time.  And it hooks onto the stroller so easy!  I definately recommend them!

I’ve heard a lot of people say they didn’t use their changing table.  I got one that has dresser drawers on it.  And we got it with the intention that after she’s outgrown it she can just use the top part like a shelf, for a tv or something like that, just remove the changing pad.  I probably wouldn’t use it very much if it didn’t serve that purpose in her room. 

We bought pack n play sheets, but they barely fit the pack n play.  Right now I use them to put over her bouncy seat because it’s easier to pull it off and wash it than taking the whole cover off.

Bouncy Seat: Lexi has never really LOVED her seat.  She would sit in it for a while when she was smaller, but she would end up slouching down and getting uncomfortable in it.  She would much rather lay on a blanket on the floor than sit in that.

I don’t recommend buying a lot of bottles or pacifiers until after the baby is born.  I know that seems stupid.  But, I have so many bottles and pacifiers that Lexi never used.  She got used to the Soothie pacifier in the NICU so that’s what she always prefered to use.  She had a lot of trouble eating when she was smaller so we found Gerber bottles with preemie nipples on them.  She used them for the longest time, and still prefers just a plain old Gerber nipple to anything else.  I had already bought and sterilized Soothie and Nuk bottles that she wouldn’t ever use!

Swing: Lexi spent a few nights and days where she was only happy in the swing.  But thank goodness it was given to me and I didn’t have to pay for it, because it has spent much more time just taking up room in the nursery or the living room! 

We used the baby monitor a handful of times when she would nap in the bedroom during the day and we wanted to have the door shut not to disturb her.  I tried to use it when she first moved into the nursery to sleep at night, but it made the most awful background noise.  We can hear her just fine from our bedroom so We don’t need it. 

We never bought a diaper genie.  My brother and SIL have one and it seemed like a pain in the ass.  I would much rather just have a trash can with a lid.  Lately I’ve started putting the poop diapers in walmart sacks to keep the smell down some.

Boppy: Lexi slept propped up in hers for months…pretty much until she figured out she could scooch out of it.  But, it was practically the only way she would sleep.  I guess tucked down inside there she still felt like she was being held.

I bought the “crib soother” thing that hooks on the crib and has a light, plays music, heartbeat, nature sounds, etc.  It also has an attachment you hook underneath the mattress that vibrates.  But, that was never soothing for Lexi, so it has hardly ever been used.  Same thing for the music and vibrations on the bouncy seat…hardly ever used it.

I don’t have a single changing pad cover.  Crib sheets work perfectly.  They are a little big, but I just tuck the extra fabric under the pad and it works fine. 

Lots of crib sheets, receiving blankets, sleepers, onesies.  I’m sure you will get stuff like this at your baby shower.  But, it’s worth mentioning.  You don’t want to run out of those things.  I personally don’t know why they call sleepers “sleep and plays” because I never let Lexi hang out in hers all day.  It’s annoying to have to unbutton all those buttons!  The ones with zippers are a little better, but still not as easy as a onesie!

Wipes Warmer:  I hated mine!  Maybe it was just the brand I bought, but it dried out the bottom 1/3 of the package of wipes and the very bottom ones were even scorched-looking.  I even tried putting some bottled water in the bottom of it, and they still dried out.

Some kind of diaper rash cream.  Jacob’s grandma swears by Buttpaste…but it didn’t really work for Lexi.  The best thing was just plain ole Desitin.  I do like the “creamy” version more than the original. 

Night time baby bath and lotion.  The first few times we used this with Lexi she fell asleep before even finishing a bottle she was so relaxed!

Diaper Bag:  Really anything will do!  Mine kinda folds in on itself, so I wish I would have gotten something with sturdier sides.

That’s all I can think of for now.  If I think of anything else I’ll add it to the list!

edit: I came back and added pics, hopefully they help you to know what I’m talking about.
