![]() Which doesn’t sound like a large proportion, but for a Boxer to have that much white in their coat, they must have inherited two copies of the “extreme white spotting” gene. But, some Boxer dogs carry “white spotting” genes, which lay white patches on top of the fawn.Īnd for breeders, “white Boxer” has a very specific definition: a Boxer dog with white markings covering more than 30% of its body. Genetically, all Boxers’ base color is fawn. We’ll come back to these in a minute.Īnd finally, some Boxers have a black mask over their eyes and muzzle. In some places, the fawn might also be broken up by white patches. Sometimes the brindling is so dense it gives the impression of being a solid black coat, but it is always brindling. The fawn can also be overlaid by black stripes known as brindling. But like saying a human has brown hair, fawn can cover any shade from dark blonde to deepest mahogany, via a spectrum of tans and reddish browns. You can take a look at more Boxer fun facts here!

Problem sleep is a prominent symptom of many somatic and emotional illnesses. 1 Risk factors for insomnia include older age, female gender, shift work, and comorbid medical or psychiatric conditions. Approximately one-third of all people will suffer from chronic insomnia at some point in their lifetime, and one-tenth of them will have significant daytime impairment as a result. Chronic insomnia is associated with impairments in many aspects of interpersonal difficulties, quality of life, substance abuse, cognition, risk of psychiatric disease, work-related problems, and accident proneness. * Corresponding author: Steven Lippmann, MD, University of Louisville School of Medicine, 401 E Chestnut St, Ste 610, Louisville, KY 40202 ( sleep is necessary for normal function and is essential for physical and psychological health. ![]() © Copyright 2016 Physicians Postgraduate Press, Inc.ĪDepartment of Family Medicine, North Memorial Hospital, University of Minnesota, MinneapolisīUniversity of Minnesota and Regions Hospital, Minneapolis-St PaulĬDepartment of Psychiatry, University of Louisville School of Medicine, Louisville, Kentucky This article reports the results of a literature search related to pharmacotherapy for insomnia and presents 4 clinical vignettes with corresponding treatment options.

The Doodle Team explored many different ideas, concepts, and creative directions for celebrating the history and culture of the garden gnome. Go behind-the-scenes of today’s Doodle below! Try each one to see which gnome goes the greatest distance towards making your garden the most beautiful of all. The farther your gnome travels, the more flowers you plant-and the more points you earn! Once you learn the basics, you can choose from six colorful gnomes with different shapes, weights, and bounciness. Here’s how the game works: Use your trusty catapult (or trebuchet to be precise) to launch your clay gnomes into the farthest reaches of your garden. ![]() Then, you’ll enlist a group of gnomes to help you decorate a garden of your own! In today’s interactive Doodle, you’ll learn a bit more about how the humble gnome is made. Legend has it they protect these gardens and bring good luck. Propelled by local myths and increased leisure time, the gnomes began to find homes in gardens throughout the country. Here, local craftsmen are given credit for hand-crafting the gnomes as we know them-with shaggy beards and pointy hats. ![]() The common garden gnome originated in 19th-century Germany from the mining area of Thuringia. Gnome figures first appeared in 13th-century Anatolia and re-emerged in 16th-century Italy. ![]() Today’s Doodle - just in time for Garden Day in Germany - celebrates these tiny statues for their big role in German history. Look amongst the greenery of Germany’s lush gardens and you might spot a red-capped gartenzwerg, or garden gnome. He was rarely content to play the same instrument for long, and so the list of keyboards that cycled through his studio is lengthy. Schulze may have been known as the master of the Moog, but he was fond of other synthesizers as well. An entire wall of his home studio was dedicated to the instrument, which he used to patch different sounds. He was also a fan of the company’s early Modular synthesizer-a "Big Moog" that comprised of IIIp and a Sequencer Complement B expansion cabinet, bought in 1975 from Florian Fricke of Popol Vuh. This synth was one of the brand’s first accessible releases. In the recording of this show, he shreds on the now-coveted, then-affordable Minimoog Model D as well. But while it’s one of the most sought out synths around, it’s famously more of a studio powerhouse than a road-ready workhorse. It was the last polyphonic synth to be produced by the company before they declared bankruptcy in 1987, and is famous for its luscious, funky sound. Its tastefully groovy presets made it well suited for disco and ambient musicians.Īnother one of the main synths from the company he employed was the coveted Memorymoog. In this same video, he also plays a Polymoog, which was a hybrid polyphonic synthesizer–it dwelled in the same vein as other popular pre-1980 organs and string machines. In the above video, you can hear Schulze lean on it to add arpeggiated washes of treble to a 1977 on-stage set. The monophonic synthesizer was capable of creating a wide range of tones and textures. Schulze sometimes used a compact, 32 key Micromoog in his live setup, which was only produced between the years of 19. For an example of how important these products were to his creative process, look no further than his Pete Namlook collaborative albums The Dark Side Of The Moog and The Dark Side Of The Moog 2. Over the course of his career, he cycled through a number of instruments from the Asheville, North Carolina-based synthesizer manufacturer. The Moog was a crucial component of Schulze’s formula. Klaus Schulze live on WDR Köln TV, 1977 Moogs So, in honor of the legacy of “the godfather of techno,'' we're going to look at the powerful musical machines that shaped his sound. He was an avid innovator, who never hesitated to push the technological limits of his work. It’s hard to imagine the emergence of genres like ambient, IDM, or house without Schulze’s contribution to the progression of electronic music. However, in spite of his old age and health struggles, he still managed to announce one more album before his death: the LP Deus Arrakis, which was posthumously released on June 10th. After a long battle with an unspecified illness, he left behind a wife and two sons. On April 26th of this year, Schulze tragically passed away at the age of 74. Widely considered a master of the Moog, he all-but-invented the Berlin School–a flavor of early kosmische musik that was a bit more ethereal than the work of propulsive krautrock acts like Can and Neu!. He even played in the prog rock supergroup Go, alongside Stomu Yamashta, Al Di Meola, Steve Winwood, and Michael Shrieve. But while his output tended to be centered on cutting edge analog atmospherics, he still sometimes incorporated organic elements into his work, like electric guitars and human voices. In the decade to come, he churned out a number of classic records, including 1976’s Moondawn, 1977’s Mirage, and 1978’s X.īetween the 1980s and the 2020s, Schulze built up a seemingly-impenetrable catalog of releases, which were united by a digitized, retrofuturistic aural palette. ![]() Centered on imposing organ licks played through a crappy amplifier, it was an ambitious, neo-baroque effort from the up-and-coming avant-garde presence. In 1972, he put out the first album under his own name, Irrlicht. (However, he would continue to collaborate with them in various capacities in the years to come.) This time, his reason for leaving was to focus on launching a solo career. ![]() After the release of their 1971 self-titled debut and a ton of shows–in true Schulze fashion–he departed Ash Ra Tempel. Schulze laid down the drum tracks for that trio–alongside guitarist Manuel Göttsching and bassist Hartmut Enke–for just one record. (He would go on to rejoin Tangerine Dream for a few shows in 1973.) He was behind the kit on their debut LP Electronic Meditation, but then left the act after a brief stint to help found the proto-New Age jam band Ash Ra Tempel. After meeting Edgar Froese at the short-lived, yet iconic experimental music venue The Zodiak Free Arts Lab in West Berlin around 1969, Schulze started drumming for Tangerine Dream. He cut his teeth performing in a number of local Berlin bands, including one called Psy Free. While Schulze is best known for his heady knack for synthesis, he was a percussionist before he was a keyboardist.

The smallest bag you could buy contained four or five bananas. Like most grocers, Trader Joe’s used to sell bananas only by the pound. A chance encounter, more than 25 years ago, between Trader Joe’s CEO and a customer at a Sun City, California, store confirmed this hesitation and led the grocer to start selling bananas individually.

Rather than cut staff to help fund services such as self-checkout, online ordering and delivery, the company says it will continue to invest in hiring on-site staff. It's something that takes months or years to plan, build and implement, and it requires tremendous resources.” In an episode of its Inside Trader Joe’s podcast, the company’s vice president of marketing Matt Sloan explains why doing so doesn’t make sense for the business: “Creating an online shopping system for curbside pickup or the infrastructure for delivery, it’s a massive undertaking. ![]() However, Trader Joe’s says there aren’t any plans in the works to offer these services to its customers. ![]() ![]() I was recently in an Amazon-owned Whole Foods (a block or two away from a TJ’s in Charlottesville, Va.) and there were a slew of employees in the aisles shopping for customers who ordered online.
