I saw a wallaby. It was brown and had spots on its back and I got about five metres away from it! A few days later I saw another two wallabies, a mother and her joey. The joey was about half the size of its mother and it was so cute!But they bounded off very quickly.

I wanted to write a simple introduction to keys and key signatures as a way of helping my children as they started learning the theory side of playing music. Let’s face it, once you’ve decided to move beyond playing the standard introduction1 to an instrument and actually learn it you don’t get far before at least encountering a key signature.
This article is about the western musical system which splits each octave into 12 notes (or semi-tones), the best representation of which is the piano keyboard. There are other systems from a range of cultures, they’re not covered here.
The goal was to make this introduction understandable by children – no fancy words, convoluted terminology, fluff or esoteric nonsense that you can find in any of a hundred books – just plain everyday language.

Top Tips for Securing WordPress Installations
An out-of-the-box WordPress installation is not very secure. The tool is great for blogging but, unfortunately, an easy target for the unscrupulous to hack your site.
The result of being hacked could be anything from changed &/or deleted content (obvious when you look at the site) to subtle things such as putting links to other sites that you can’t even see. These links sound harmless but if these sites are “undesirable” this can get your site blocked by browsers and severly penalised by search engines. The best approach is to make your site difficult to hack and therefore not worth their time.
