they learn this by rote. [drumbeats] do it slowly. (averill) eventually, the idea is that they can then bring something of their own style, something of their own spirit to the music and transform it-- make it something personal. take the example of jazz musicians who study solos of previous jazz greats who learn to reproduce those solos note by note. then they're able to take their own solos to begin to do something brilliant and creative and imaginative. (redman) i usually say that i'm self-taught because i never had a real private instructor as a saxophonist. but my teachers i consider to be the great musicians from the past and the great musicians from the present. i've learned from listening to the records. i consider sonny rollins one of my greatest teachers even though i've never met the man. so the way i've learned is by listening and by playing with great musicians both great older musicians-- my elders, masters-- but also with my peers. i think i've learned just as much playing with other young musicians who are in the same

it's for that reason that it's not just a rote test. >> i will defer the second round of questions. commissioner loftus? >> my questions are, i would love to see the data. i do hear so the criticisms of the process. it's nothing that i have seen that would suggest that certain ethnic groups get difficulty in getting passed. i wonder if you have data on ethnic group who applies and who gets tested and how we are seeing if there is a certain demographics having difficulty. we certainly know that to serve the community that need it the most, we need to improve our diversity. do we have that data or something that we can get available? >> [inaudible]. >> that would be helpful to counteract that. the second thing, the asian poa, officers for justice in the recruitment and supporting this effort, are they involved at all? >> yes. like i say, as much as you can really actively recruit with only a 2-week window a year, so, again i have always felt that we were disingenuous in having a recruiting unit. again, we've only had a 2-week window for a year. before it was a 1 week window. before th

know, when we were in school, we were obligated to memorize poetry and to be able to recite it from rote memory. even in the way people express themselves, it's a kind of a slightly poetic flavor to the way people speak. but i think the most vivid example is when i went to a palace in kabul which was built in the early 20th century by an afghan king and was this magnificent, massive, massive palace with gardens, massive columns and it was gorgeous, and it became sort of the battleground for all that militia fighting in the 1990 and ended up being, i think, the perfect metaphor for what's happened in afghanistan, from splendor to absolute destitution. and be now it is just this hulking ruin with massive holes and snakes and scorpions everywhere. so i visited the palace, and i noticed that it was graffitid everywhere on the walls. and so much of the graffiti was poetry, you know? [laughter] and i was very touched by that. there was, you know, lines of classic poetry and, obviously, lines that have been, you know, sort of amateurish poetry, but a lot of it was poetry from curranic verses an

by rote, i mean my regiment was six hours of writing every day. and if i missed three hours on this day, make it up. it's all the difference in the world. you have to create your own style, your own voice. style is not the right word. your own voice, and almost unmistakably you. it takes 500,000 words at least, so get started. get them done. get them out of your system. it's like a second it takes takes 100,000 mistakes to learn the language. well, just are speaking. don't worry about the mistakes. just plunge in and take chances. that's the way to learn. well, okay, i was lucky and i've started a novel in the seminary, and i still had and i decided to finish that in us lucky enough to sell it in june, and then through old friends, got a job writing speeches for an aspiring congressmen, which that led to my writing a new frontier speech, because he wanted to invite kennedy to come and impress him with his speech. kennedy was, before kennedy was nominated, i sent a copy of it to the speechwriting headquarters at harvard. what was the poets named wa
