I don't know what's more pathetic, Jack Abramoff's sleaze or Republican
paralysis in the face of it. Abramoff walks out of a D.C. courthouse in
his pseudo-Hasidic homburg, and all that leading Republicans can do is
promise to return his money and remind everyone that some Democrats are
involved in the scandal, too.

That's a great G.O.P. talking point: some Democrats are so sleazy, they
get involved with the likes of us.

Go to a music shop and buy a small set of pitch pipes. Cost you a few
pence and can be kept in the case whereas a PC can't!!

I would suggest a tuning fork in A and tune in perfect 5ths from there.

The fingering will get you nearly there, and it's very good ear training to
accurately tune from there by ear

Is she a beginner? After you've played a specific violin for a while, you
can tune it be ear. After a couple of months playing the fiddle, I could
tune it without any help. Otherwise I recommend a pitch pipe.
