Outside From July 2016

Seven Minute Silence was formed in the Spring of 2008 by Lead Guitarist Matt Bidart, (Former) Bassist Miguel Caraballo and Drummer Nick Bidart with a vision of producing catchy, heavy music. In the Summer of 2008, 7MS found a Vocalist/Lyricist in Ryan Mote. Mote recorded a couple of tracks with the band but departed a few months later to attend to his family and other projects. The band reformed in the Fall of ’08 with Lead Vocalist/Rhythm Guitarist John Ingles.

Recorded in Japan in July 1973, this massive, three-LP live album was available outside the United States in 1974 but held back from domestic release in the U.S. It features the same "New Santana Band" that recorded Welcome, and combines that group's jazz and spiritual influences with performances of earlier Latin rock favorites like "Oye Como Va".

In the town where country music was born where two states come together on one street a spark lit and a duo was ignited. At the 2012 Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion, on the way to take the stage with his band, Sol Driven Train, guitarist/singer Joel Timmons found himself sidetracked by Della Mae, an all-female, GRAMMY-nominated bluegrass band. It was that group's bass player, Shelby Means, who most captivated his attention. After a conversation at the merchandise table about their shared love of travel and music, two-years passed before Means and Timmons would reconnect. A bold love song led the way, and eventually a growing romance turned into the Nashville-based duo Sally & George and their debut album tip my heart.

The development of character is a valued objective for many kinds of educational programs that take place both in and outside of school. Educators and administrators who develop and run programs that seek to develop character recognize that the established approaches for doing so have much in common, and they are eager to learn about promising practices used in other settings, evidence of effectiveness, and ways to measure the effectiveness of their own approaches.
