Re: PRINCESS KA'IULANI
Because Princess Kaʻiulani was second in line to the throne after her elderly and childless aunt, the young girl was expected to eventually become Queen. King Kalākaua, Queen Kapiolani, Cleghorn, and the Princess talked about the issue and determined the Princess should pursue a British education. In 1889, at the age of 13, Kaʻiulani was sent to Northamptonshire, England to be given a private education at Great Harrowden Hall. She excelled in her studies of Latin, Literature, Mathematics,...

Re: Enjoy a preview of 8 classical music channels I'm sharing
I hadn't listened to that mockingbird for a while. It's diabolical. My friend Ms. M. who lives on the warm side of San Francisco told me she had a bird visiting her yard a few days ago, and she remembered two different songs it was singing and whistled them for me. I told her it had to be a mockingbird. I think at this time of the year they try to be mistaken for nightingales and almost succeed except when they change their tune.

Re: Advent
Advent is the period of four Sundays and weeks before Christmas (or sometimes from the 1st December to Christmas Day!). Advent means 'Coming' in Latin. This is the coming of Jesus into the world. Christians use the four Sundays and weeks of Advent to prepare and remember the real meaning of Christmas. My 2 candles will be lit.

Re: Some Interesting Trees
Quaking Aspen. Though it sounds like the heavy in a grade B science fiction flick, the Pando clone, made up of 47,000 tree trunks covering 106 acres and weighing some 13 million pounds, is real. It's a single organism, a quaking aspen that began life as a single seed-possibly tens of thousands of years ago-and spread by sending up shoots from an expanding root system. (is Latin for "I spread.") Each trunk is genetically identical and no more than 150 years old, but the root system may be the...
