Ave Regina Caelorum - Gregorian Chant - simple then solemn from Veronica Brandt on Vimeo.
The Marian Antiphon for Septuagesima and Lent. Well, strictly speaking, it's from February 2 up to the Sacred Triduum. It's the shortest and simplest one, so a great place to start learning.
Sung by my family
Alma Redemptoris Mater - Marian Antiphon for Advent and Christmas from Veronica Brandt on Vimeo.
I've been putting together a video each week from my hymnbook A New Book of Old Hymns which you can get here: newbookoldhymns.brandt.id.au Alma Redemptoris is a hymn to the Beloved Mother of our Redeemer. It mentions her giving birth to the Saviour while nature marvelled. We sing this from the beginning of Advent, which is four Sundays before Christmas, right through to forty days after Christmas, 2nd February.
Independent Senate Candidates 2019 Federal Election
Independent Senate Candidates 2019 Federal Election
Lists of political parties are available, but there’s a sizable list of independents at the end of the ballot paper. I can’t find an existing list with ways to find more information about them. The closest was this list with contact details from Vegan Australia.
So far I’m going from Googling each name adding “senate candidate”. I guess the next step is to write to each one to see if there’s…

Australian Internet Jottings
I have been losing confidence in our landline for a while. As a volunteer telephone counsellor it is very frustrating to be listening for vital information via a fuzzy connection. Calls on my mobile are so clear, but home phone can be crackly especially after rain.
So, today I’m looking into Mobile Broadband with the first carrier to claim to support my area – Moose Mobile. Which looks great.
But…

Cassocks many years on...
Cassocks many years on…
Mum! My first cassock still fits me!
Have a look back seven years ago when this cassock was new.
Today the boys counted 7 cassocks and 5 surplices in the house.
I remember wondering who supplied the cassocks and surplices for all the altar servers. Now I know, they make it up as they go along.

Processing jp2s from the Internet Archive
Processing jp2s from the Internet Archive
Image Magick is the go to program for batch image processing for Linux nuts, but the default version does not support jp2 files.
Instead, install GraphicsMagick thus: apt install graphicsmagick
Scantailor likes input at consistent dpis, eg 300 or 600. Conversions default to screen resolution 72 dpi.
So, set the density / resolution as you convert the jp2s to jpgs like so:
for i in *.jp2; do gm…

Snippets
I dug up an old Homeschool newsletter I edited and found a few favourite quotes that I had used to pad out the gaps.
It’s become more difficult to believe because the world in which we find ourselves is completely made up of ourselves, and God, so to speak, doesn’t appear directly anymore. We don’t drink from the source anymore, but from the vessel which is offered to us already full, and so on.

How to make a case for male/female marriage.
So many fine articles, I think it’s time to keep a list.
Rewriting History to Serve the Gay Agenda – guess what? the Church didn’t perform same-sex marriages! – there is no same-sex marriage in human history – except Emperor Nero (WARNING Explicit Content) which was universally seen as perverse.
What’s changed in Britain since Same Sex Marriage– sure the sky hasn’t fallen yet, but freedom of…

#junebuggy from offspring #2. Note the lens flare.
still missing a tenor, but I think tonight is going to go well. Lawson, 5pm, hang around after for evening tea.
First cab off the rank. #junebuggy I don't know how this will pan out. It feels good to draw. I've wanted an excuse to get some practice in, and here's a subject I don't care about so not worried about looking great.
Draw a sand faring vehicle every day during the month of June #junebuggy @avalonprand @christopher26503. Who is with me?
Easter week is there over the other side of all the hugeness of the Sacred Triduum.
It’s time to get ready.
Out of all the music for Easter, here is a classic – the Sequence, sung Every Day of Easter Week between the Alleluia and the Gospel.
And everyone says – “I can’t read that, I can’t read Latin, I can’t read music, etc…” but now I’ve made a video so you can experience the fun of me trying to explain stuff around the dining room table.
Here’s a quizlet set if you’re up for acquiring some vocabulary.
Corpus Christi Watershed have this sheet music which lacks the Amen and Alleluia.
My book A New Book of Old Hymns does include the Amen and Alleluia. Download the relevant page here.
