In
the face of despair:
On 26 December 2004 an earthquake occurred just off
the coast of Indonesia. The quake,
the most powerful for 40 years, triggered a series
of deadly waves, which fanned out across the Indian
Ocean. At least 200,000 people in coastal areas from
Somalia to Sumatra were killed and many millions
left destitute.

What
is Music? Music is a word whose accepted definitions
vary with time, place and culture. It is said to
be an art, or form of entertainment, it is also often
defined by contrast with noise or speech. Some definitions
of music place it explicitly within a cultural context
by defining music as what people accept as musical.
Enjoy this complete overview.

News
about AbleStable
Last
Major
Update
Homepage and
Review Update: July 04
You'll
find a major update has been made to our homepage
which now places far greater emphasis on the free
community resources that are available at AbleStable.
The links to our online store are gone which are now
available from our Services page. Each resource area
featured on the homepage now has a small icon and
link with a brief accompanying summary. The Product
Area has been renamed Review Area as this far better
sums up its purpose.
These changes are inline with a general assertion
that AbleStable is now a high quality content-rich
website. The commercial language: products, store
etc, have been demoted in favour of language that
far better sums-up the site's main purpose: to encourage
and support creativity. Hope you like the changes.
If
you have any comments, good or bad, please go to Feedback.
