Re: passing of Bill Parker

2017-02-24 Thread Michael Hawkins
Ronni, 

Bill was Dr Bill Parker, our member as well as being a member of two bush fire 
brigades, the West Australian Rowing Club, Perth Morris Men (you may have seen 
him dance in the Hay Street Mall)  and The Red Sea Pedestrians Klezmer Band.

Larger than life and never unkind.

Regards,

Michael Hawkins

Re: passing of Bill Parker

2017-02-24 Thread Michael Hawkins
Yes, sadly, Bill died in his sleep a fortnight ago tomorrow, very unexpectedly 
but due to a blood clot.

His funeral was an open air affair yesterday, near the lake in Manning Park, 
Spearwood. His coffin was made of wickerwork and the Morris Men of Perth formed 
a guard of honour while his coffin was escorted from the hearse by members of 
two volunteer fire brigades from the hills.

At the conclusion of the service The Red Sea Pedestrians played as Bill was 
wheeled back to the hearse. Bill had been a member of the group.

A man of many parts, he used to run his four wheel drive on fuel he made from 
fat collected from fish and chip shops. He also ran it on fuel he made from 
chook manure.
For some reason Toyota I think it was rejected a warranty claim on either the 
fuel pump or the injector system (I can't remember which).

Bill was a scientist who worked in the field of microbiotics. He was involved 
in a company which floated relatively recently, Protomeics International, which 
is developing a market in India, amongst other places. Tests it has developed 
can predict the probability of various illnesses well in advance of symptoms 
becoming apparent.

I miss Bill and his irreverent sense of humour.

Sadly I've been told that this is “our” Bill.
I don't know any details as to funeral service. Perhaps the person who informed

Another good man gone. Vale (Dr) Bill Parker, renaisance man,...
Bill sat at the back of his school class in UK and couldnt see a thing so 
considered not too bright. Later, the miracle of glasses. and Dr Bill 
Parker, microbiologist, self taught musician to performance standard, folk 
dancer, rowing coach, sustainable house designer and goodness knows what else 
and a hell of a lot of fun to share adventures with in 'The Red Sea 
Pedestrians"... We rehearsed every Saturday afternoon for months to develop a 
sound and style and a playlist, with Bill and David Hoffman combing through 
hundreds of Klezmer recordings and folk songs , transcribing to written music ( 
usually printed on the back of used documents of a dubious nature) then a 
unique Jewish or Academic style of struggle for the best result whereby 
everyone was equal and stood up powerfully for their view or ideas and yet no 
one was insulted and inclusion in the group as a peer was a given. A powerful 
result developed and we performed at The Oz concert, various arts council or 
city council "concerts in the park", at some amazing weddings, a couple of Bar 
Mitzvahs, music festivals including Nannup, Fairbridge, Bridgetown Rhapsody, 
Kulcha Club, live recording for the ABC etc, We started out thinking it would 
be Jewish weddings and Bar Mitzvahs but developed into a 40 minute show act 
where we came on and played a "show" of great music with a non stop flow 
between pieces. Melanie Jones transferred her bush dance calling skills across 
to teaching audiences folk dances from Jewish and Russian roots which was 
hugely popular. Bill had a wickedly surprising sense of humour that went down a 
treat. One of our early gigs was a huge wedding in a marquee on Bindoon farm, 
Son of leading Jewish family marries daughter of major Italian restaurant 
family ... so we added in a suite of Italian songs and the joy and dancing at 
the wedding was amazing and we kept the italian and latin stuff in the play 
list, along with Jazz crossovers derived from Klezmer.
Going to the big shows or festivals with the band was good for our family as 
the band was just one of many good acts on the programme so we got to enjoy the 
whole show, have trips away, hear and see things we otherwise would not have 
thought of. Reuben used to come with me often to the Saturday afternoon 
rehearsals and I reckon he saw a model there of how hard you can work at 
knocking a band into shape. :-)
So now Bill is gone and David has sent this to the West Australian death 
notices.
"Suddenly Monday night, our founding band member, clarinetist, transcribing 
musician, farmer, Perth Morris Man, scientist and friend. Bill, there was so 
much more you longed to do. Mel, Paul, David and all Red Sea Pedestrians 
Klezmer Band members
Regards,
David Hoffman "
For me, there is of course the sense of loss and of compassion for those 
closest to Bill, but also very strongly a great reminder and a realisation of 
how fortunate I have been to share so much creativirty and enjoyment with such 
people as Bill and everyone in that crazy band.

Printer set up

2017-02-24 Thread Jennifer Lefroy
Since upgrading to Sierra on my iMac, my printer is not connected. It is a
Cannon TS5060.  I have tried unsuccessfully to set up for Sierra, with
wireless connection. It gets as far as Step 2 "searching for printer on
network" and then reverts to the Printer selection list.  I have checked
that the correct printer is selected in Preferences.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thank you,
Jennifer
