 Artist: Miroslav Vitous: mp3 download Genre(s): New Age Jazz Miroslav Vitous's discography:  Universal Syncopations Year: 2003 Tracks: 9  Bireli Lagrene and Special Guests Year: 1998 Tracks: 8  Journey's End Year: 1983 Tracks: 6 Best known as unmatchable of the foremost young bassists in the jazz-rock movement of the former '60s and early '70s, Miroslav Vitous is one of Europe's most versatile imports, equally at dwelling in mainstream idioms and level depressed music. A sometime loss leader, his bass dances and skitters around an supporting players as a coequal phallus of the front strain, and he makes very creative use of the obeisance. He is influenced not simply by bassists like Scott LaFaro, Ron Carter and Gary Peacock, merely too by Czech common people music. Vitous began his musical studies on the fiddle at eld six-spot, switch to piano from ages nine to fourteen earlier in conclusion settling upon the bass. While studying at the Prague Conservatory, he played with a trio that included his blood brother Alan on drums and Jan Hammer -- some other future jazz-rock mover and shaker -- on piano. After winning a scholarship to Berklee in 1966, he touched to New York the next year and wound up on the job with Art Farmer, Freddie Hubbard, Bob Brookmeyer, Clark Terry, and very briefly, Miles Davis. Today i of the most highly touted prodigies in jazz, Vitous started playing in a recurring triad with Chick Corea and Roy Haynes on Corea's 1968 album Now He Sings, Now He Sobs. He then joined one of Herbie Mann's most democratic groups from 1968 until 1970, with time out for a turn with Stan Getz; Mann produced his number 1 album, a pioneering series of prolonged jazz-rock workouts called Infinite Search on the flutist's Embryo label. As a creation member of Weather Report, Vitous helped delineate the band's freewheeling initial level, leaving the group in late 1973 as its music began to evolve into more than structured forms. A incite to Los Angeles in 1974 lED to a yearlong session of woodshedding in private with a new custom-made instrument, a double-necked guitar and bass. However, that experimentation did not pan out, and he returned to the bass, ahead sessions for Warner Bros., Arista, and from 1979, a sporadic series of dates for ECM as a leader and in reunions of Corea's bop-to-free Trio Music chemical group. In the meanwhile, Vitous became immersed in academe, joining the module of the New England Conservatory in 1979 and becoming head of the jazz department in 1983. Although his profile isn't most as highschool as it was at the peak of the jazz-rock geological era, he continued to play at jazz festivals and record into the 1990s. |

Post-Partum Suicide Attempt Risks Studied
� Although maternal suicide after giving birth is a comparatively rare occurrence, suicide attempts often give birth long-lasting personal effects on the family and the infant. In a study published in the August 2008 issue of the American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, researchers compared iI populations of mothers and found that a history of psychiatrical disorders or substance shout was a strong soothsayer of postnatal suicide attempts.
Using the hospitalization and birth records from Washington State, USA, from 1992 to 2001, the researchers found that 335 women had been hospitalized for suicide attempts. Another 1420 women wHO had granted birth merely had not been hospitalized for a suicide attack served as a ascendence group.
After adjusting for fetal or infant death and other variables, women who had been previously hospitalized for psychiatric disorders were more than than 27 times as likely to attempt felo-de-se as women without this medical history. Women with a history of meaning abuse were six times as likely to attack suicide, while psychiatric hospitalization insurance and substance abuse unitedly increased the risk by 11 times.
Writing in the article, Katherine A. Comtois, PhD, lead investigator from the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center and the University of Washington School of Medicine, states, "In the current study, we focused on preexisting psychiatrical risk factors for postpartum suicide attempts resulting in hospitalization. Most importantly, a prior psychiatrical or substance use diagnosis among postnatal women significantly increased the risk of a serious postpartum felo-de-se attempt. One implication of this written report is that screening for past history of psychiatric and substance use diagnoses as theatrical role of routine prenatal care may be a means of identifying women at high peril of postnatal suicide endeavour, although a recent revaluation of antepartum screening for depression cited insufficient grounds to recommend screening as a way to better outcomes."
A recent passport from The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists suggested viewing for psychosocial risk factors, including depression during prenatal care. This article emphasizes the demand for more careful followup of postpartum women with current or past psychiatrical diagnoses or substance manipulation. The authors continue, "Future studies should evaluate the effectiveness of screening for psychiatric and substance use disorders on decreasing contrary outcomes such as self-annihilation attempts during the postpartum period. If found to be in effect, such interventions may preclude the withering impact associated with postnatal suicide attempt."

Dylan�s art on display
Bob Dylan, revered as a singer, songwriter, author and poet, is also an experienced artist, a new exhibition of his paintings shows.
The Halcyon Gallery in central London has put on display dozens of works by the 67-year-old musician, mainly vibrant versions in water colour and gouache of a series of drawings he created between 1989 and 1992 while on tour and in studios.
The works were published in 1994 in a book called Drawn Blank, and years later Dylan revisited the series after a curator at an art gallery in Chemnitz, Germany, approached him.
The original drawings were digitally scanned and in some cases enlarged before Dylan re-worked them using different colour schemes.
The result is �The Drawn Blank Series,� a collection of everyday scenes including train tracks, portraits, sunflowers, wrecked cars, trucks, still lifes and semi-erotic images of a bare-breasted woman or sisters in various stages of undress.
Dylan has consistently resisted interpreting his work, be it music or art.
Speaking in the 1990s, Dylan explained: �The purpose of my drawings is very undefined. They're very personal drawings.� And in an interview with the Times newspaper to publicize the London show, he said any similarities with other, better known artists was �just by accident and instinctive.�
Dylan also took a swipe at the music industry.
�The music world's a made-up bunch of hypocritical rubbish,� he told the Times. �And the art world? ... Basically, they are who they say they are. They don't pretend. And having been in the music world most of my life, I can tell you it's not that way. Let's just say it's less ... dignified.� Paul Green, president of Halcyon Gallery, said he believed Dylan had captured "life in its everyday grittiness � it is what it is.
�Take the �Train Tracks� series � you look at that image and it is what we all do every day of our lives.�
He likened Dylan's series, with their radically different colour schemes, to Impressionist greats like Claude Monet, who also painted variations on the same theme.
�He (Dylan) is one of the great figures of the 20th century and this is an explosion of artistic creativity. All artists go through it.�
According to Green, a collector plans to buy a large number of Dylan�s originals in order to exhibit them around the world. He would not name the individual.
