Alberta Ballet - 2013
Interview with Alexandra Pera
by Kate Snedeker
April 29, 2013-- Jubilee Auditorium North, Edmonton, AB
Prior to the world premiere of Alberta Ballet's 'Balletlujah!' in Edmonton, the company spent a week rehearsing in Edmonton. During this Edmonton residency, I has the pleasure of talking with company member Alexandra Pera about her career and the 'Balletluhah'! experience.
Alberta Ballet: 'Balletlujah'
by Kate Snedeker
May 3, 2013 -- Jubilee Auditorium North, Edmonton, AB
Jean Grand-Maître has become known for his series of ballets inspired by the songs and lives of well-known musical artists – Joni Mitchell, Elton John, and Sarah McLaughlan. With the world premiere of the fourth such production, Balletlujah!, Grand-Maître and the Alberta Ballet have struck Alberta gold. Inspired by the experiences and music of k.d. lang, the ballet ostensibly follows the love story of two women. More so however, Balletlujah! is a tribute to the spirit of Alberta and Albertans...

Alberta Ballet: Celebrating Mozart
by Kate Snedeker
April 5, 2013 -- Northern Jubilee Theatre, Edmonton, AB
Supposedly, April showers bring May flowers. That may be true in warmer climes, but in Edmonton, April snow brings the Alberta Ballet. For their April 2013 visit, the company provided a well-needed energy boost to winter-weary Edmontonians in the form of a balletic celebration of the music of Mozart.

Mikhailovsky Ballet
London Tour
Duato Triple Bill
by Stuart Sweeney
April 3, 2013 -- London Coliseum, London, UK
The Mikhailovsky Ballet is already a firm favourite in London, bringing work we haven't seen here before, such as the restaging of Vakhtang Chabakuani's "Laurencia" and Petipa's "The Cavalry Halt", as well as the more familiar classics from the Russian ballet rep.
by Charlotte Kasner
April 3, 2013 -- London Coliseum, London, UK
Actually, at second viewing, I think its main failure is that it is not dark enough. It is a 20th-century ballet trapped inside a 19th-century shell. The peasants are not really downtrodden and trip around in pretty clothes, till the land and do the laundry; for all the world like Jerome K Jerome's peasants in "Stageland."
'Don Quixote'
by Charlotte Kasner
March 30, 2013 -- London Coliseum, London, UK
"Don Quixote" is usually presented as a rather clunky Soviet-era warhorse; all too often, a dull, rather silly story that is only bearable because the audience knows that the fireworks of the famous sections, such a staple of galas and competitions, will enliven the tedium. The Mikhailovsky production has found a way to make it relevant and even exciting...This "Don Q" is a joy throughout: a breath of warm air and vibrant colour that brought to life a dull, cold, late spring evening in London.
by Jessica Wilson
March 26, 2013 -- London Coliseum, London, UK
The Mikhailovsky Ballet's "Giselle" saw Natalia Osipova create a truly succinct character, which was both of childlike innocence and learned power simultaneously. The split of Giselle's character across the two acts, as young villager and then as the newest recruit of the Wilis
In Conversation with Andris Liepa

June 2013

April 2013

Marin Ballet's 50th Anniversary: Review & Interview
by Heather Desaulniers
April 13, 2013 -- College of Marin Theater, Kentfield, CA
Marin Ballet is a true arts 'institution' in every sense of the word. Nestled just north of San Francisco, this long-standing ballet school is dedicated to fostering dance education and promoting arts appreciation. This year, the faculty, students and alumni celebrate an amazing accomplishment as they mark this dynamic organization's fiftieth birthday.

An Interview with Boston Ballet's Mikko Nissinen
by David Mead
April 2013
This summer Boston Ballet, celebrating its 50th anniversary, makes its first visit to London for over 30 years. Nissinen says, "I think this is the pinnacle. This is the most important tour we have done, definitely under my leadership, but I think ever. London is one of the dance capitals of the world. It is also part of our strategy for our fiftieth anniversary celebrations.

Akram Khan: 'iTMOi'
by Stuart Sweeney
May 29, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
As one of the most sought after UK dance artists worldwide, based on his extraordinary talents as dancer, choreographer and collaborator, a new work by Akram Khan is a major event. "iTMOi" (in the mind of Igor) is Khan's take on the "Rite of Spring", commissioned by Sadler's Wells for the 100 th anniversary of the mould-breaking dance work.

English National Ballet: 'Swan Lake'
by Jessica Wilson
June 12, 2013 -- Royal Albert Hall, London, UK
English National Ballet's "Swan Lake" in the round is a visually stunning masterpiece. At the Royal Albert Hall audiences were treated to a dazzling display by the sixty-plus swans danced by the corps de ballet; Matthew Golding debuting as Prince Siegfried, and ENB Artistic Director Tamara Rojo as Odette/Odile, even if the drama was missing at times.

National Youth Dance Company & RIOT Company: (in between) & RIOT Offspring
by David Mead
June 8, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
The new National Youth Dance Company has been much heralded as being an important part of a policy of engaging further young people with dance, and sparking new opportunities for young artists and audiences to experience the richness and diversity of the art form.

School of American Ballet: 2013 Workshop Performance
by David Mead
June 1, 2013 -- Peter Jay Sharp Theater, New York, NY
So how appropriate that this year's Workshop Performances should feature three of his works, and three that focus purely on dancing to great music: the gorgeously delicate "Divertimento No. 15" (to Mozart), staged by Suki Schorer; the elegant and delightfully well-mannered "Le Tombeau de Couperin" (to Ravel), staged by Rosemary Dunleavy and Arch Higgins; and the free-spirited "Walpurgisnacht Ballet" (from Gounod's "Faust"), staged by Susan Pilarre.

Birmingham Royal Ballet: 'Coppélia'
by David Mead
June 5, 2013 -- Birmingham Hippodrome, Birmingham, UK
With its easy to understand story, humour and pleasant choreography, "Coppélia" is close to the perfect ballet for many. Peter Farmer's designs are a winner too with his unspoiled mid-European village buried amid rich green foliage and set alongside a dark lake. It all suggests immediately mystery and magic.

Ballett Bern: Hexenhatz
by David Mead
May 22, 2013 -- Linbury Studio Theatre, Royal Opera House, London, UK
Six years have passed since Marston's "Firebird", her debut work as ballet director in Bern. Differences over artistic direction with new Konzert Theater director, Stephan Märki, have been instrumental in leading to a parting of the ways at the end of this season. "Witch-hunt", or "Hexenhatz" to give it its rather more evocative German title, is some going away piece, though. It is not often that a work hits you so hard that you are still about it and the issues it raises days afterwards, but that is what happened here.

Verve 13
by David Mead
May 24, 2013 -- The Place, London, UK
It is right that postgraduate companies should be about the dancers, and in recent years some of the best performances have come from the dancers of the Northern School for Contemporary Dance in Leeds. There is enough in this year's Verve programme to show that this year's crop of performers is as good as ever.

Shen Wei Dance Arts: 'Undivided Divided'
by Carmel Morgan
May 23, 2013 -- Atrium, JFK Center for the Performing Arts, Washington DC
If you don't know the Chinese-born choreographer Shen Wei, then please go see his work. He's one of the must-sees in contemporary dance. If you're familiar with him, then you may know he has a background in painting.

Sylvie Guillem: '6000 miles away'
by Jessica Wilson
May 20, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
"Catch it while you can," they say of fleeting moments. You might think that of the iconic and ethereal Sylvie Guillem given she seems to have been gracing stages for so long, but despite the fact her age is no secret, on the evidence of this evening it is clear that audiences will be able to witness and experience her phenomenal talent for many years to come, so youthful is her body and its gestures.

Keigwin + Company: Works in Process
by Cecly Placenti
May 20, 2013 -- The Guggenheim, New York, NY
According to Larry Keigwin, dance is everywhere. And as a choreographer and dancer myself, I have to agree. On subway platforms, crowded city streets, in the interaction between wolves in a pack, in the gestures of lovers on the train, the keen and refined eye sees dancing. We all have bodies.

Grand Rapids Ballet Company: 'Romeo & Juliet'
by Steve Sucato
May 18, 2013 -- Peter Martin Wege Theatre, Grand Rapids, MI
Re-envisioning Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet must be a little like trying to re-envision the act of breathing. The story is so culturally ingrained that any retelling automatically carries with it the burden of knowing expectation. Despite this, seemingly every dance season another choreographer adds their dance interpretation to the bountiful Romeo & Juliet's already out there.

Sonia Sabri Company: 'Kaavish'
by Shezad Khalil
May 2013 -- UK
Established in 2002, the Sonia Sabri Company is committed to the exhibition of Kathak, a North Indian classical dance form. With their contemporary constructions, they seek to show Kathak as a progressive and forward-thinking mode of expression.

Boston Ballet: 'Coppelia'
by Carla DeFord
May 16, 19 and 22, 2013 -- Boston Opera House, Boston, MA
This month I had the privilege of seeing the Boston Ballet production of Coppélia three times with three different casts. The opening night Swanilda was Misa Kuranaga, and what I found particularly impressive about her performance was her ability to whirl through a movement and then stop on a dime, suspended on one toe.

The Singular Collective
by Jerry Hochman
May 17, 2013 -- The Steve & Marie Sgouros Theatre, New York, NY
The Singular Collective is a recently-formed support network for young, emerging choreographers to pool resources, explore ideas, and provide mutual support. The group presented its first concert, a collection of five dances by its five founding choreographers at performances last weekend at The Steve & Marie Sgouros Theatre in Greenwich Village.

Northern Ballet: 'The Great Gatsby'
by Charlotte Kasner
May 14, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
You wait for ages, then two come along at once. It is nearly forty years since the Robert Redford/Mia Farrow film of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, yet merely four days after a new film version is released, we have David Nixon's production for Northern Ballet.

Stuttgart Ballet: Masterworks
by David Mead
April 24, 2013 -- Staatstheater, Stuttgart, Germany
How many directors would even think about programming together the three works that made up Stuttgart Ballet's "Masterworks" evening: George Balanchine's sharp, classical yet angular "The Four Temperaments, Jerome Robbins' warm and comforting "Dances at a Gathering," and Glen Tetley's very male-oriented "Rite of Spring." Not only did Reid Anderson dare to think, his dancers pulled it off brilliantly is what was an exhilarating, if long, it ran three hours and twenty minutes, evening of dance.

Book Review: 'Agony and Ecstasy: My Life in Dance' by Daria Klimentova with Graham Watts
reviewed by Charlotte Kasner
March 2013
...her book is a breath of fresh air. Its core strength lies in Klimentova's honesty and openness. Without being sensationalist, she does not shy away from the difficulties of dancing in an under-funded, pressured company with the instabilities that changes of artistic director and partners inevitably bring.

Choreographics - A Letter To...
by David Mead
May 3, 2013 -- The Place, London, UK
"Choreographics - A Letter to…" is English National Ballet's new choreography project, which this year saw five dance makers from within the company's ranks each teamed up with a composer from The Royal College of Music. Director of the project, George Williamson hoped the outcome would be thought-provoking experimental work, made in a true spirit of collaboration that saw structural and aesthetic parity between the art forms.

Jump on the DanceWagon
by Jerry Hochman
April 26, 2013 -- Ailey Citigroup Theater, New York, NY
When you attend a performance under the umbrella "Jump on the DanceWagon," you anticipate a program of emerging modern dance companies that may not have yet found their direction and probably don't have 'regular' (semi-permanent) company dancers, presenting works that are not overly complex and have little in the way of production values. To a large extent that general description holds for the last weekend's program at the Ailey Citigroup Theater.

The DREAM Celebration
by Carmel Morgan
May 4, 2013 -- Lincoln Theatre, Washington, DC
I had not been inside the historic Lincoln Theatre on DC's U Street until the DREAM Celebration, a very special performance presented by CityDance and the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities, which was co-produced by Rasta Thomas. The Lincoln Theatre was built in 1922, and acclaimed African-American artists such as Washington natives Duke Ellington and Pearl Bailey performed there.

National Ballet of Canada: 'Romeo and Juliet'
by Stuart Sweeney
April 21, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
It's 26 years since NBoC visited London and they returned with an enticing calling card – a new production of Romeo and Juliet by Alexei Ratmansky, one of the most successful ballet choreographers around. NBoC Artistic Director, Karen Kain, felt the need of a replacement for John Cranko's version as "...there is very little dancing except for the lovers," and Ratmansky accepted the challenge.

Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui: 'Puz/zle'
by Charlotte Kasner
April 25, 2013 -- Sadler's Wells Theatre, London, UK
Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui is guaranteed to produce work that is dangerous and complex and "Puz/zle" is no exception. His collaboration with Filip Peeters on the set bears some of the familiar hallmarks. It is monumental and has a tendency to look as if it is threatening to flatten the dancers as great slabs tumble and slide across the stage, with or without effort from the performers.

Peter Schaufuss Ballet: 'Midnight Express'
by Charlotte Kasner
April 10, 2013 -- London Coliseum, London, UK
Anyone who was put off attending this year's production by Schaufuss Ballet after the ghastly Tchaikovsky triple bill that they presented when last in London made a big mistake. Thirty five years after the film of "Midnight Express" shocked so many and on the day that we hear that a British woman has been sentenced to death for drug smuggling, Schaufuss gave us the chance to see Billy Hayes' story represented in dance - and it works.

English National Ballet: Ecstasy and Death
by Charlotte Kasner

April 9, 2013 -- Kennedy Center, Washington, DC
The American Ballet Theater opened its annual spring schedule at the Kennedy Center with two contrasting masterworks from the mid-20th century showcasing the heritage of the evening's main event -- the Washington premiere of Alexei Ratmansky's much anticipated setting of Shostakovich's Symphony #9.

New York Theater Ballet: Legends & Visionaries, Program B
by Jerry Hochman
March 22, 2013 -- Florence Gould Hall, New York, NY
New York Theater Ballet is one of those companies that, if it didn't exist, would have to be invented. A small company, NYTB's 'mission' is to provide a showcase for infrequently performed 'chamber' ballet masterpieces and for works by choreographers who have fallen from prominence, as well as an encouraging pathway for new, and relatively new, choreographers: that is, to combine the legendary (but under-performed or overlooked) with the emerging. Friday's program, one of two collectively titled "Legends & Visionaries," fulfilled this mission admirably in all respects.

Riedel Dance Theater & Ariel Rivka Dance- Joint Performance
by Jerry Hochman and Cecly Placenti
March 9, 2013 -- Ailey Citigroup Theater, New York, NY
The joint program of new dances by Riedel Dance Theater and Ariel Rivka Dance at the Ailey Citigroup Theater on March 9, 2013 demonstrates how fresh ideas can stimulate creative dance theater, but also how difficult it can be to translate an interesting idea into a compelling work of choreography. While both pieces, In Violent Circles and Vashti, danced respectively by Reidel Dance Theater and Ariel Rivka Dance, were promising, each would benefit from further development.

American Repertory Ballet: 'Romeo and Juliet'

April 12, 2013 -- Union County Perfoming Arts Center, Rahway, NJ
The new full length version of Romeo and Juliet by American Repertory Ballet's Artistic Director Douglas Martin, which had its first full-choreographic 'preview' (full-length choreography, with costumes but not sets) on Friday at the Union Count Performing Arts Center ("UCPAC"), is destined to be one of those successful productions, and in many respects it's already a pleasant surprise.

Spring Ballet - 2013
American Ballet Theatre: 'Romeo and Juliet'
by Jerry Hochman
June10, 11, 12(m), 14, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
Either Sir Kenneth MacMillan's choreography is a guarantee, or I've been extraordinarily fortunate over the years, but I've never seen a poor presentation of MacMillan's Romeo and Juliet – and with respect to the lead roles, the performances, overall, have been either wonderful or shattering or both.
American Ballet Theatre: 'Romeo and Juliet'
by Colleen Boresta
June 15(m), 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
American Ballet Theatre performed Kenneth MacMillan's 'Romeo and Juliet' from June 10th to June 15th this year. 'Romeo and Juliet' is a ballet which took quite a few viewings before I could really get into it.
New York City Ballet: Spring Finale
by Colleen Boresta
June 9(m), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
New York City Ballet ended their 2012-2013 season with a ballet from each of the three composers honored this year. 'Serenade' has music from the Tschaikovsky Festival, 'Stravinsky Violin Concerto" from the Stravinsky Festival and 'Stars and Stripes' from the American Music Festival. Even better, all three works were choreographed by George Balanchine.
New York City Ballet: Spring Finale
by Jerry Hochman
June 7, 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
Things are going so well for New York City Ballet this 2012-2013 season that even programs that you think will be lackluster turn into sparklers. So it was with last Friday's performance. I'd seen three of the four pieces on the program previously, all except Barber Violin Concerto, and although I thought they were varying degrees of good...
American Ballet Theatre: 'Le Corsaire'
by Colleen Boresta
June 5(m) & 8(m), 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
Anyone who attended a performance of American Ballet Theatre's 'Le Corsaire' (which ran from June 4th through June 8th) was in for a swashbuckling good time. ABT's new production is very much like their old 'Le Corsaire' except for costume and scenery changes.
American Ballet Theatre: 'Le Corsaire'
by Jerry Hochman
June 4 & 5, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
American Ballet Theatre unveiled its 'new' production of Le Corsaire on Tuesday at the Metropolitan Opera House. I saw that performance, as well as one the following evening. That's enough.
American Ballet Theatre: Shostakovich Trilogy
by David Mead
May 31, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
American Ballet Theatre Artist-in-Residence Alexi Ratmansky clearly has quite an affinity with the music of Dmitri Shostakovich. He has already made seven ballets to the composer's work, but a trilogy, three in one evening, is a particularly challenging undertaking. So, it is good to report that he pulls it off with some style, with much to admire in the three ballets...
American Ballet Theatre: Shostakovich Trilogy
by Jerry Hochman
May 31 and June 1(m), 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
Anyone familiar with Alexei Ratmansky's choreography knows that he has a special intellectual and emotional relationship with Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, perhaps similar to the relationship that George Balanchine had with Tchaikovsky... Now he has created the Shostakovich Trilogy, which may be Mr. Ratmansky's ultimate homage to Shostakovich.
New York City Ballet: Mixed Bills
by David Mead
May 28 & 30 and June 1 & 2 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
The penultimate week of New York City Ballet's spring season featured no fewer than sixteen ballets across seven performances. Saturday evening's programme rather summed up the company and Balanchine...
American Ballet Theatre: 'Don Quixote'
by David Mead
May 29, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
Is there a more inappropriately named ballet that "Don Quixote"? After all, it is not really about the Don at all, but about the two sweethearts, Kitri and Basilio, and their ultimately successful attempt to marry.
New York City Ballet: Quad Bill
by Jerry Hochman
May 29, 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
There was a New York City Ballet Gala at the David H. Koch Theater last night...A Gala where the usual champagne was replaced by beer. Free beer. Brooklyn beer. It was a Gala for the rest of us.
New York City Ballet: Tribute To Broadway
by Colleen Boresta
May 26(m), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
Even though New York City Ballet's American Music Festival officially ended on May 19th, the May 26th matinee performance features music by Americans George Gershwin and Leonard Bernstein. The afternoon begins with 'Fancy Free'. 'Fancy Free' was the first collaboration between choreographer Jerome Robbins and composer Leonard Bernstein.
New York City Ballet: 3 Mixed Bills
by Jerry Hochman
May 19, 24 and 25(m), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
The highlights for this viewer were Lauren Lovette's New York debut in Christopher Wheeldon's Carousel (A Dance), for which the word 'stunning' would be an understatement; Ashley Laracey's striking performance in Peter Martins's The Infernal Machine; Erica Pereira's outstanding effort in George Balanchine's Tarantella (opposite Daniel Ulbricht at his best), and all of Sterling Hyltin's performances, including her debut in Balanchine's Serenade and her 'routine' performance in Jerome Robbins's Fancy Free.
American Ballet Theatre: 'Don Quixote'
by Colleen Boresta
May 25, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
There was excitement in the air when I arrived at the Metropolitan Opera House for the May 25th evening performance of the ballet 'Don Quixote'. Russian superstars Natalia Osipova and Ivan Vasiliev were dancing the leading roles and it was definitely standing room only.
American Ballet Theatre: Mixed Bill
by Jerry Hochman
May 22m, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
It never ceases to amaze me how different casts, different venues, and different points of view can impact one's response to a particular ballet – but how with certain ballets such changes have little or no impact. Yesterday afternoon's American Ballet Theatre program at the Met illustrated both these points.
American Ballet Theatre: Triple Bill
by Colleen Boresta
May 22(m), 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
This week American Ballet Theatre is presenting four performances of a mixed bill. This is rare for the company's spring season at the Met..The fact that two of the works on the program are classics choreographed by Frederick Ashton and George Balanchine translates into pure joy for the ballet lover.
American Ballet Theatre: 'Onegin'
by Jerry Hochman
May 15m, 18 and 20, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
While it may not do very well with galas, American Ballet Theatre is superb with its bread and butter – full length ballets, whether they be classic or contemporary. A perfect example of what's great about ABT, and of what could make it still bette...
American Ballet Theatre: 'Onegin'
by Colleen Boresta
May 18(m), 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
American Ballet Theatre's first production of their 2013 Met season is John Cranko's 'Onegin'. Cranko choreographed the work for the Stuttgart Ballet in 1965. He was not allowed to use any music from the Tschaikovsky opera 'Eugene Onegin'...
American Ballet Theatre: Spring Gala
by Jerry Hochman
May 13, 2013 -- Metropolitan Opera House, New York, NY
It is common knowledge that the purpose of a 'Gala' is, in the first instance, to get well-heeled donors to open their checkbooks, and second, to display the company's talent to help encourage the first purpose.
New York City Ballet: All Balanchine Program
by Colleen Boresta
May 11(m), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
At my second viewing of New York City Ballet's American Music Festival, the audience was treated to an all Balanchine program. One well performed George Balanchine work brings a huge smile to my face but seeing four is pure heaven.
New York City Ballet: Spring Gala
by Jerry Hochman
May 8, 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
At its annual Spring Gala, NYCB showcased its greatest asset – its future: young dancers, at all levels, who already demonstrate performing excellence and who are expected to be with the company for a long time.
New York City Ballet: All Rodgers Program
by Colleen Boresta
May 5(m), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
The first week of New York City Ballet's American Music Festival ended with an all Rodgers program. The afternoon begins with Peter Martins' 'Thou Swell', which was created in 2002 in honor of Richard Rodgers' 100th birthday.
New York City Ballet: American Music Festival
by Jerry Hochman
May 2 and 4(me)), 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
While few of these ballets match the classic masterpieces that George Balanchine choreographed to Stravinsky and Tchaikovsky, the ballets on these programs are not without merit.
Movie Review: Ballet's Greatest Hits
by Jerry Hochman
March 31, 2013 -- New York, NY
When I think of "Ballet's Greatest Hits," I think of the title of one or more CDs I used to see in seldom perused stacks at classical music emporiums, consisting of ballet music by 19th Century composers...Ballet's Greatest Hits, the film produced under the auspices of Youth America Grand Prix, which premiered at selected theaters on March 31, 2013, is similar in that it consists of excerpts from full length ballets.
Youth America Grand Prix Gala
by Jerry Hochman
April 17-18, 2013 -- Koch Theater, New York, NY
Whether one likes them or not, competitions in the arts have a long and celebrated history, and when you have one that's run as comprehensively and as efficiently as Youth America Grand Prix runs its annual competition, you can overlook imagined ethical concerns and focus instead on a few simple observations: the size and scope of YAGP's reach is enormous; the participating student performers seem to love it, win or lose; and the talent on stage, from 12 year olds to 19 year olds, defies belief. Mix that with one of the better annual galas, and you have to concede that YAGP is not just a competition but a formidable international talent search engine.
Interview with Marcelo Gomes
by Jerry Hochman
April 1, 2013 -- New York, NY
In a review of La Bayadere several years ago, I described Marcelo Gomes, a principal dancer with American Ballet Theatre, as the most valuable dancer on ABT's roster.
In connection with the premiere of the film "Ballet's Greatest Hits," which was produced under the auspices of Youth America Grand Prix and in which he danced Prince Siegfried in the White Swan Pas de Deux from Swan Lake, I spoke with Mr. Gomes.

BRISTOL — A tavern called ND's, named after proprietors Nina Badger and David Bannister, is set to replace the bar formerly known as Dan's Place on the east end of Main Street in Bristol by mid June.
After Dan Palmer closed his bar in February, he was unable to reopen as planned in April.
Fortunately for the loyal following of Dan's Place frequenters, Badger (who helped Palmer initially decorate and set up his spot) and Bannister (one of Palmer's investors) are promising a bar very reminiscent of its former self.

Wilkesboro's Triple Header Returns!
While the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival has been a must see event in Wilkes County, North Carolina, for years, the county's racing history-dating back to the moonshine days and the birth of NASCAR-has been on a 14-year hiatus.
Once home to nationally televised stock car racing events, North Wilkesboro Speedway has sat dormant for more than a decade. During that time several attempts at buying and reopening the track were made, but all fell short. However, thanks to a new ownership group with legitimate goals, racing is set to return to the historic speedway.
Now, the Buck Baker Racing School has already visited the track (see the Sept. '10 issue of CT) but on October 3, the half-mile oval will hear stock car engines roar to life once again. That date marks the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival weekend which this year will see the return of the Fall "Triple Header" at the Speedway.
The USARacing Pro Cup Series had already announced that it would make a late-season stop at the historic track but Speedway officials recently announced the addition of a 100-lap open wheeled Modified race and a 50-lap Street Stock race in conjunction with the Brushy Mountain 250 Pro Cup race on Sunday, October 3, 2010.
"On behalf of Speedway Associates, Inc., I want to personally invite all Modified competitors and race fans from 'Madhouse' to extend your race schedule and come do battle at Historic North Wilkesboro Speedway," said Alton McBride Jr., President and Director of Operations of the track. McBride was referencing the popular History Channel television program that chronicles the exploits of the Myers racing clan, Junior Miller, and other elite Modified racers at Bowman-Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, a little less than an hour east. With the regular Modified season over at Bowman Gray, McBride is hoping that the Madhouse racers will make the short hop east to add action and excitement to the weekend.
The Brushy Mountain 250 Pro Cup event, race three of the series' five-race 2010 Championship Series, is scheduled for 2 p.m. and will be preceded by the 50-lap Street Stock event at 12:30 p.m. The open-wheel Modifieds will roll off immediately following the Pro Cup event.
"In the past, the triple header in the fall at North Wilkesboro with stock cars and Modifieds was always a tremendously exciting event," said USARacing Managing Partner, Larry Camp. "I know the fans will love it. The first weekend in October is synonymous with the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival," continued Camp. "The race events on Sunday will mark an exciting rebirth of the speedway for the folks in Wilkes and surrounding counties. I'm sure race fans everywhere are excited about the speedway's return to action."
Gates open at 11 a.m. on Sunday. Advance tickets are $17 for adults and $9 for kids, ages 6-15. For more information about the historic North Wilkesboro Speedway or to purchase tickets, visit www.historicnws.com or call 336/818-9505.

I was adding the StuG III G from Road To Rome to my mod today and ran into an issue. It won't spawn. First thing I did was check my debuggers, which did not say anything about the StuG.
I got the StuG to spawn by replacing the vehicle in an already-existing spawner and the vehicle works fine.
So I then checked how many ObjectSpawnTemplates I was using and it showed 98 instances, and my ObjectSpawns showed 99. Is 99 the highest the map will go?

The Great Wall of China twists through deserts and plains, over mountains and plateaus like a Chinese dragon. The structure's length is estimated at 8,852 kilometres. Not all parts of the Great Wall have been preserved in good condition and thousands of years of history have obviously left their mark. Beijing is a great starting point for a visit to both the restored and the more authentic segments of the Great Wall.
The most westerly point of the Great Wall is located near Jiayuguan, at the heart of the Gobi desert, and it ends in the East China Sea some 2,300 kilometres further. In fact, there's not just one but several Great Walls. The first segments were built in the 7th century BC, and the Great Wall was extended by various Chinese dynasties; both as a defence against invasions from the north and to strengthen the prestige of the emperors.
The section of the Great Wall at Badaling is beautifully restored. Dating back to the Ming Dynasty, this part is easy to reach from Beijing as it's just 70 kilometres from the centre of the Chinese capital. A drawback of the location near Beijing is that it can be quite busy with visitors, but if you have enough stamina, just keep walking east or west until it becomes less crowded. In Badaling you'll also find China's Great Wall Museum, focused on the construction of the Great Wall and the history of the dynasties.
One of the most unspoilt parts of the Great Wall is located near the village of Jinshanling, 125 kilometres northeast of Beijing. Over a trajectory of 10 kilometres, many original features can still be admired. As it has been decided to keep this segment in its original condition, you may have to do some climbing. It is also possible to stay the night in the village, which hosts the Chinese Wall Marathon in May every year.
The British geologist and geographer William Lindesay ran 2,470 kilometres along the Great Wall in 1987, covering this entire distance as a solo runner. He has been researching the Great Wall ever since, and in 2011 led an expedition to Mongolia where he discovered a segment of the Great Wall that had been forgotten since the days of Genghis Khan. Lindesay also organises adventure tours along the wall for any interested adventurers!
The Great Wall meets the Bohai Gulf, in the northern part of the East China Sea, at Shanhaiguan. Some 300 kilometres from Beijing, this beautiful spot can easily be reached by express train, which takes around 2.5 hours. This part of the Great Wall was built during the Ming dynasty and stretches out some 20 metres into the sea. To the locals it looked like a dragon drinking from the water, hence the name Laolongtou – old dragon's head.

Wanted to share a rather unfortunate event with everyone. On a great wave day here on Lake Michigan and after capturing some amazing footage in long head high plus waves my Go Pro Hero 3 sank as I handed the camera to another rider for filming. We did the hand off well outside the surf zone in water that had less than a foot of wind chop on it.
I had the Floaty BacPac attached and the Go Pro Head strap mount, which I found to a amazing tool for hand held shooting. As you can adjust the head strap around your hand giving image stability, control of the shot, along with easy of kiting.
I was shocked as I watch the camera slowly sink before the other rider could get to it. So why did it sink? Not because the case opened as my thick gloves prevented any chance of undoing the locking mechanism or the case was cracked, but because of a design flaw at Go Pro.
When I called about my camera sinking in such an odd way I was told to my surprise, that the floaty is not designed to float anything but the naked camera and case. This important information is something Go Pro does not share or give a warning to on the packaging of the floaty BacPac in anyway or one any of the accessories. In fact the floaty BacPAc used with accessories is a common feature on many of the official Go Pro videos. Regardless the obvious communication error on their part they didn't seem interested in offering much to me but another surf kit camera for $160 off list price.
I received this in a follow up email from Go Pro:
"We do appologize for not clearly stating that the Floaty BacPac is not designed to hold up more than just the camera. Please be sure in the future to avoid puting any other mounts on the camera when using the Floaty BacPack"
So be careful with your Go Pro if you own one, don't expect the floaty BacPac to do its job and second don't expect a billion dollar company to communicate critical facts about their products to the end user.

As some of you know, Inara's mom was one of the dogs confiscated from a hoarding situation in Trumbull County, Ohio. You can read about her story here:
and here:
Though she has been rescued from a horrible situation and is being cared for, I was told that the dogs only have until March 10th to be adopted. No info was provided as to what will happen to the dogs that aren't adopted, but as most are pits/pit mixes, I can only imagine. I refuse to let Sophie get euthanized. She deserves to know some love. Barring no other rescues stepping in to take her, I am going to go adopt her this weekend. I will then care for her until I can find her a permanent home where she will know the love and care she deserves.
The problem is that I don't have the money that is going to be needed for her adoption fee, food and medical care. I'm okay financially to care for one dog, not two. She's on Panacur (for worms, I think), she has a hernia and a mammary mass that needs to be removed. She also hasn't been spayed yet as far as I know.
If she hasn't been spayed, her adoption fee is $65; if she has, it's $135. I'm hoping that my contact who is volunteering can still come through on her offer for a crate, if not I'll have to buy one. Hopefully I'll know tonight about the crate.
I hate having to ask this, but if anybody could donate some money I would be eternally grateful.
If a rescue steps up and saves Sophie, or if the dogs are given more time, I will send back every penny that is donated. My PayPal addy is firstname.lastname@example.com. If you send money, please leave your address in the notes section so I can at least send you a thank you card. It humbles me to have to do this, but I can't let her die.
Thank you so much and don't hesitate to PM me if you have ANY questions or concerns.
---Liz (PitBullMamaLiz)

5 Fun Things to Do with FreeNAS
If I asked the average user how they use FreeNAS, they'd probably answer "back up and store files". While that's both practical and important, it's also a bit boring. The software is designed for small and home offices but if you've got a system at home, you're probably wondering what kind of fun you can have with it.
To that end, we've rounded up five of the more interesting ways you can use FreeNAS. Some of the tutorials I'll link to make the assumption you've already built and set up your system. If you need some help with that, check out our official FreeNAS guide to hardware design and the FreeNAS YouTube channel.
Many of these projects make extensive use of the plugins system. An overview of plugins and a full list of the ones available can be found in the FreeNAS documentation. The guides range from a simple plugin installation to some command line hacking so make sure you're comfortable with the difficulty level before attempting any tutorial.
1. Set Up the Ultimate Entertainment Device
FreeNAS is a file server by nature—in order to turn it into a media server, you'll need to install a few plugins to allow the system to download and stream media.
There are several combinations of plugins you can install depending on the type of media you'll be using—the most popular being Transmission (torrenting) and Plex Media Server (streaming). However, there are many other plugins that specialize in specific media types such as Firefly (music), Mylar (comic books), Sickbeard (TV shows), and CouchPotato (NZB/torrents).
If you need to stream to a DLNA device such as a PS3 or XBox One, you can install MiniDLNA by following this tutorial from joeschmuck of the FreeNAS forums.
2. Host a Personal Cloud
With some of the horror stories out there about privacy breaches, some people are understandably on edge about handing over their documents and photos to a third-party. Now you can set up a secure personal cloud on FreeNAS that only you and authorized users have access to. Once you get OwnCloud set up, it's like having a personal Dropbox. The easiest way to do this is through the official plugin located in the Plugin tab.
For more control, you can also configure OwnCloud manually—there are several ways to do that. Here's a video tutorial from DrKK of the forums for his method and the corresponding forum thread.
Here's an alternative method from Josh Parker Ruehlig who wrote many of the FreeNAS plugins.
3. Share and Distribute Files Privately
In a similar vein, you can also use FreeNAS to share files and pictures with friends and family with the Bittorrent Sync plugin. It functions a bit like Dropbox but BTSync is a peer-to-peer sharing application—unlike the cloud, all the files are stored locally on each device and updated when changes are made. This is useful for sharing photos or files across several computers regardless of size. Because you'll be downloading from many sources, it's also vastly faster than a cloud.
Here's our official video tutorial for setting up BTsync. It's relatively straightforward, and it explains in step-by-step detail how to configure FreeNAS first and then set up the plugin.
4. Set up a Private Voice Chat Server
You can configure a FreeNAS system with Mumble. If you're not familiar with Mumble, it's an Open Source voice over IP application that enables you to voice chat with friends over a private and secure system. There's no limit to how many people can join a particular chat; the maximum depends on the particular server.
This particular project takes some effort to set up. This tutorial again comes courtesy of DrKK and demonstrates how to set up your own Murmur server using FreeNAS.
5. Deploy a Minecraft Server
Love Minecraft? You'll be happy to know you can configure your FreeNAS system to host a Minecraft server. Josh Parker Ruehlig, the person responsible for the FreeNAS MineOS plugin, created a video and forum thread to demonstrate how to set it up. As he points out, the MineOS plugin gives you the advantage of being able to manage your servers via a web UI.
Prior to the plugin, you had to install Minecraft from scratch into a jail. Alternatively, you can do just that as community member Cyberjock demonstrates in this tutorial.
A Few Final Notes
First and foremost, it's up to you to secure your system, follow best practices, and make sure your data recovery plan is adequate. None of these projects mean very much if your files are compromised or corrupted by malware.
For more project ideas, I highly recommend browsing the FreeNAS forums and signing up for an account. It's a huge repository of great information. If you're confused about a topic, post or do a search in the forums. Chances are you'll find something or someone to help you.
This is just the beginning of what you can do with FreeNAS. The DIY aspect of FreeNAS means that there are literally thousands of iterations of hardware combinations and use cases. Keep in mind the FreeNAS plugin system is based on FreeBSD jails and the PBI system from PC-BSD which means advanced users can install any software they want using the FreeBSD package tools, opening up even more possibilities for your NAS.

You suggest installing minidlna, but plex media server has that already, no?
Red on January 21, 2016 at 1:59 am
Do you experience streaming problems using Plex and PS4?
Sometimes streaming works and sometimes it doesn't.
I've notice it works when the Plex server is busy doing something but when it is idle and you play a movie in PS4 using Dlna it will error out. I am using the latest Plex plugin in FreeNAS. Thanks.
G-Man on November 9, 2016 at 12:34 pm
Hi i tried using plex but it doesnt pick up all my shoes and i have no wish to go through and rename them all.
Can freenas be used with my d link sharecenter and stream content over the internet with other plugins? and is it easy to set up?
Joshms on March 31, 2017 at 9:25 am
We've done our best to make the installer and GUI easier than ever before. If Plex isn't picking up all of your shows something is likely configured wrong. Give the FreeNAS Forums a try!
Kev on November 30, 2016 at 1:00 pm
All i want to do is share my saved movies outside of my network, IE: paste a weblink to a movie stored on my HDD into say Kodi or Videolan and for it to work anywhere not just over my network, Will freenas do this ? Yeah i can use Plex media server on a PC and PleXBMC on android devices but this only works over my network, Outside my network i have to pay for a Plex pass.
Any help appreciated.

Hi! I'm from Brazil and I'm studying how to create a domestic NAS for me and my wife in a small form factor PC.
What hardware do you reccomend to a decent domestic server with a 2 TB HD and media center enabled? It needs to be so much powerful?
Antoher question is if the PC will be on all the time, or when there are no clients, it can go to suspend mode.

Shortly after an auto accident, your first thought may be to call your insurance company or a lawyer, once any obvious injuries have been treated. Damage to the body, muscles, joints, and spine typically hurts, but there are no guarantees. Chiropractors want to eliminate your pain, but they do so by going directly to the source. Many people who survive automobile accidents must deal with both physical and emotional damages following their accident, and treating these injuries can be a difficult process. In fact, you may not think you have been injured after a car accident, and then start to experience discomfort or headaches several months after the fact.
Whiplash is a classic car accident injury caused by the quick push forward and the sudden jerk backward that happens in many typical car collisions. By increasing blood flow and strengthening muscles, techniques like exercise and massage are highly effective at reducing pain and promoting healing. Other chiropractic techniques such as application of heat and ice, stretches and massage, are all safe and effective methods for treating injuries from car accidents. As a result, some people tend to leave the scene of an accident thinking they do not need any medical attention right away.
What can Brooklyn chiropractic do for auto accident injuries?
If the spine is not carefully looked after and aligned so that full range of motion returns before scarring sets in, spinal degeneration can occur. If you wait too long to get treatment for injuries – serious or not – non-invasive treatments, such as chiropractic care, may be ineffective. A chiropractor in Brooklyn, Florida 32204 can target the damaged areas and break up the scar tissue faster than a patient can on their own. Many times, an auto injury patient won't feel much discomfort immediately after the crash, but they wake up the next morning to a stiff and painful neck.
A 2014 study reported that people who received a chiropractic adjustment had increased levels of pain-reducing hormones in their bloodstream. This typically results in the neck moving very rapidly through an excessive range of motion, contributing to hyperflexion-hyperextension injuries that can affect soft tissues in the neck, as well as joint capsules and intervertebral discs. Therefore, at any stage of healing and recovery from whiplash-associated injuries, chiropractic adjustments can reduce pain and restore normal function. A chiropractor will not diagnose or treat a TBI, thus you should always head to the emergency department if you believe you hit your head.
What to do after an auto accident in Brooklyn, Florida?
A car accident injury can cause long-term pain to your body if not treated, even there are no visible signs of injuries. Whiplash is a neck injury often sustained after an accident, since the sudden acceleration-deceleration force common in auto accidents often causes your neck to stretch beyond its normal limits. You also help reduce the risk of a chronic condition or long-term damage. Regardless of seat belts or low speeds, the body is subjected to sudden, stressful movements that it simply isn't able to safely handle. However, once the initial shock of the car wreck wears off, people may begin to notice neck pain, headaches, back pain, or other similar soft tissue injuries that combine to be called whiplash.
While pain pills and muscle relaxers may offer temporary, short-term relief, the only true fix is to have the source of pain addressed through a combination of precise treatments, from chiropractic interventions to physiological therapies. Without receiving proper care, there can be a serious impact on your health from these injuries, leading to chronic pain lasting months or possibly years. Chiropractic care in Duval County, Florida can be an excellent way to treat whiplash injuries after an auto accident.

How to choose the best auto accident doctor in Brooklyn, Florida?
This means you are entitled to see your chiropractor at no charge to you regardless of who was at fault in your accident. If you wait too long to see a chiropractor in Brooklyn, Florida and end up with an injury outside of the designated time period, you could lose valuable coverage for treating the injury. For example, if you suffer a minor injury to a joint or bone, you could cause substantial damage in another accident such as a trip and fall incident because your body is in a weakened state already. If you are involved in a car accident, seek immediate chiropractic care to boost your chances of a full and speedy recovery.
If there's any chance that severe or life threatening injuries are involved, you should first go to an emergency room to rule those out. After a car accident, there may be herniated discs, subluxations, strained tissues and more–a series of adjustments can straighten these issues out so that you'll return to having full mobility and being free of pain. But you should actually call a chiropractor, even if you feel fine immediately following the accident.

Is there an official effort to crack down on iOS developers' cookie-based tracking to push them toward Apple's own ad tracking system? According to a recent report from TechCrunch that cites various industry sources, the answer is yes—Apple has reportedly begun aggressively rejecting apps that make use of their own tracking system instead of Apple's. The report claims app makers are "starting to have their apps rejected by Apple's App Review team" as a result, indicating a shift in Apple's internal app approval policies.
But according to our own sources at Apple, there is no such policy change in progress.
Let's back up a few steps. Certain app makers choose to use their own Web-based cookie tracking within their apps—the apps launch a webpage upon first launch in order to set the cookie (or read an existing one). The page closes upon completion of the cookie read/write, allowing the user to continue using the app.
Some app makers have chosen to use this method as an alternate to the now-deprecated UDID, which previously allowed developers to track a user's preferences and activities based on a unique device ID. Apple began to crack down on UDID usage last year and introduced its own ad tracking system with the launch of iOS 6 in September of 2012. (For those looking for more info, we wrote an Ask Ars on the difference between the old and new tracking systems in October.) Apple's new system is called the Identifier for Advertising, or IDFA.
But apparently Apple isn't fond of the cookie-in-a-webpage-within-an-app method—not because it's not the IDFA, but because it violates section 10.6 of the company's user interface guidelines:
"Apple and our customers place a high value on simple, refined, creative, well thought through interfaces. They take more work but are worth it. Apple sets a high bar. If your user interface is complex or less than very good, it may be rejected," reads section 10.6 of the guidelines sent to Ars.
According to a source familiar with Apple's app approval policies, this is the rule the company has always used to reject apps that force a webpage to open upon launch, regardless of whether a cookie is being set. "It's a bad user experience," our source said. "For years we've been rejecting apps for 10.6." (It's worth noting that numerous apps are Web portals themselves and are able to use their own cookies without having to open a separate webpage upon launch.) This source said there has been no official push for developers to adopt Apple's IDFA—in fact, there has been no new communication internally on the issue at all.
So why does it seem that apps using Web-based cookies are being rejected more often now than before? The answer is anyone's guess; those experienced in the App Store submission process know that there are many reviewers who may not all enforce the same policies consistently across the board.
Even some of TechCrunch's sources appear to be aware that the user interface guideline violations are what's getting them down—"Perhaps [Apple's reviewers] don't think that a flipping motion is in keeping with that user experience," mobile app maker Fiksu's Craig Palli told the site. Indeed, it seems that app makers who were hoping to get away with 10.6 violations aren't having the kind of luck they used to have, though it's not entirely their fault for thinking a policy change is taking place. The incident highlights once again the challenges presented by Apple's inconsistently applied rules, giving developers a moving target when it comes to what's acceptable in the App Store and what's not.

*Statistics for the October 14 match against St. Francis N.Y. were unavailable at the time of this release--the records are correct, but the individual statistics may not be*
The Gaucho Record
No. 14 UC Santa Barbara enters the week sporting a record of 9-12 overall, 0-3 in the MPSF. The Gauchos are coming off a tough week in which they faced top-ranked USC and No. 4 UCLA. UCSB fell to both powerhouse squads, 8-2 on Saturday at UCLA and 10-3 to USC on Sunday in the Gaucho home opener. UCSB will take a week off from MPSF competition to host Cal Baptist, Chapman and Occidental College over the weekend. The Gauchos will take on Cal Baptist on Friday before battling both Chapman and Occidental College on Sunday in a doubleheader starting at 10 am.
Scouting the Lancers
Cal Baptist (15-11) is currently riding a two-match win-streak into this Friday's match against the Gauchos, but the Lancers haven't taken to the water competitively since defeating Michigan 12-6 on October 14. The Lancer offense is led by Leonardo Laterza and John Olds, who have tallied 48 and 46 goals in 26 matches, respectively. Goalkeepers Jon Miller, Adam Phillipe and Andrew Romero split time in goal for Cal Baptist. The goalkeepers have a combined total of 201 saves and 203 goals allowed.
Scouting Chapman
Chapman (9-13) is riding a three-match win-streak into its match against Redlands on Saturday. If all goes well for the Panthers, they will hit the water against the Gauchos with momentum and a four-match win-streak on the line. The top goal scorer on the Panthers is Jeff Hall with 51 scores on the season. Daniel Hollcraft has started all 22 matches for the Panthers between the posts, tallying 117 saves while giving up 254 goals.
Scouting Occidental College
Occidental College (4-17, 0-3) has won one of its last thirteen matches headed into Wednesday's match against Whittier College. The Tigers will then take on Cal Tech before meeting the Gauchos on Sunday. Occidental's offense is led by senior Scott Shannon, who has found the back of the net 43 times on the season. Misha Grigoriev gets all the time in goal for Occidental. Grigoriev, a native of St. Petersburg, Russia, has tallied 221 saves and has allowed 229 goals.

Experiences with hospital transport for planned home births
Miller, Amy Christine, 1971-
MetadataShow full item record
Miller, Amy Christine, 1971-
The midwifery model and the medical model constitute the two main bodies of knowledge and practice that characterize the way pregnancy and birth are viewed in the United States. The midwifery model emphasizes the normalcy of pregnancy and birth, while the medical model is characterized by a belief in the supremacy of technology over nature and in medical supervision and intervention during pregnancy and delivery. Although both models do espouse important information regarding pregnancy and birth and, at times, there is overlap in the practical application of the models, practitioners of the two models rarely interact with one another. The one situation where practitioners of these two models do come into contact is during home-to-hospital transports for planned home births. Through in-depth interviews with direct-entry midwives, mothers, obstetricians, and nurses, this dissertation explores what happens when practitioners of the two models are forced to interact during home-to-hospital transports in order to provide care for women and their babies. Building on Davis-Floyd's and Johnson and Davis-Floyd's work on home-to-hospital transport, interview data suggest that a series of professional and organizational level factors influence the interactions between obstetricians, direct-entry midwives, and nurses during transports. Findings indicate that care providers engage in emotion work as they navigate the disjuncture between home and hospital, managing their own feelings and the feelings of others during a home-to-hospital transport. Due to the lack of institutionalized protocols governing conduct during transports, practitioners of the two models of care are left to construct their own versions of protocols through micro-level interactions, which at particular times and among certain providers have the effect of transcending the boundaries that divide home and hospital. With the interaction that occurs during a home-to-hospital transport as the central focus, this dissertation provides insight into how the lack of integration between the more marginalized midwifery model and the dominant medical model of care in the U.S. affects care providers and laboring/birthing women during transport situations.

All of my recommenders received a book that I thought they would enjoy.One of the advanatages to actually getting to know your professors is it makes buying thank-you gifts much easier.Here are the novels I selected, in case any of you are looking for ideas:-Blood Meridian, by Cormac McCarthy-You Must Remember This, by Joyce Carol Oates-Perfume, by Partrick Suskind All highly recommended...Oh, and Anna Ivey's a walking cliché.
For the record, I am a man, and I love quality chocolate, and would be more excited about it than another book to add to the millions I have, and no time in which to read it. There are assortments and ways to give it that are professional, not romantic. Maybe check some of the manufacturer's websites and order online-easy. Scharffen-Berger and Ghirardelli come to mind. Seems like an easy, inexpensive, popular gift to me.
Is you do get a B&N / Borders gift certificate, how much should it be for? $25? more?Is flowers a bad gift for professors?

Ownership rules for audit firms: Commission services publish independent study on the impact on the audit market
The Internal Market Directorate General has published an independent study on the ownership rules that apply to audit firms and their consequences on audit market concentration. The study analyses whether changes to the ownership rules of audit firms might help increase the number of international players in the audit market. At present, the European Statutory Audit Directive requires that auditors hold a majority of the voting rights in an audit firm and control the management board. The study will contribute to DG Internal Market's work on how to improve competition in the audit market.
Internal Market and Services Commissioner Charlie McCreevy said: "A large majority of respondents to the public consultation on possible reform of liability rules in the EU were concerned about the issue of lack of choice in the market for large international audits. I take those concerns seriously. The question now is how to create opportunities for new players to enter the market. The Oxera study provides valuable input to this debate and will help us in deciding any further steps"
