Mitridate, rè di Ponto - Synopsis
Mitridate, rè di Ponto
Vittorio Amadeo Cigna-Santi after a translation of the tragedy by Jean Racine by Abbate Giuseppe Parini
Act One
Sifare, like his brother Farnace, has come to Ninfea – against the express wish of their father, Mitridate, the king of Pontus – because he believes that his father has been killed in a battle against the Romans. He wants to make sure that he gets his share of the power and in this he has the support of Arbate, his father's ally. Sifare admits to Arbate that he, like his brother, has fallen in love with Aspasia, who is engaged to their father.
For her part, Aspasia asks Sifare to help her in rejecting the advances of Farnace, and he promises to do so. At the same time he tells her that he also loves her but does not want to win her over by force. He would rather give her up.
When Farnace again urges his affections on Aspasia, Sifare goes to her aid. But Arbate brings the surprising news that Mitridate has not been killed in battle after all; he will shortly be returning to Ninfea. As Aspasia knows that Mitridate expects complete and utter loyalty from his sons and his subjects she is worried for Sifare. But he wants to prove that he is an obedient son and and postpones tackling his conflict with his brother till later.
Farnace, on the other hand, rebels against his father. He hopes that a Roman ally, Marzio, will support him by contacting the powerful men he knows in Rome.
Mitridate returns to Ninfea accompanied by Ismene, a princess who is engaged to Farnace. He has indeed lost the battle against the Romans but still claims the power in his own country and therefore accuses his sons of having left their positions against his orders. Ismene is amazed and worried by the uncaring attitude of her fiancé.
Mitridate is also suspicious of both his sons. This is the reason why he spread the rumour of his own death. Arbate manages, however, to cast suspicion on Farnace who, he says, has promised to marry Aspasia and rule in Pontus with her at his side. Mitridate, who sees in Farnace a dangerous rival for Aspasia's affections, wants to be rid of his hated son.
Act Two
Ismene takes Farnace to task and he admits that he has been unfaithful but does not want to raise false hopes. Ismene threatens revenge but he is prepared to accept the consequences. Mitridate plans to condemn Farnace to death and have Ismene marry Sifare.
Aspasia admits to Mitridate that although she will not resist marriage with him she cannot love him. Mitridate is angry at this and orders his son Sifare to take his side against Aspasia and try to make her see sense.
Sifare is all the more astonished when Aspasia admits that she is in love with him. Since, however, she does not wish to come between father and son she would rather give him up than cause his father pain. Sifare decides to leave Ninfea as soon as possible and seek his fortune far away from his father and the woman he loves. Aspasia, on the other hand, realises how hopeless her situation is.
Mitridate is afraid that Farnace might not just be his rival for Aspasia's affections but that he might also be collaborating with the Roman enemy. He therefore decides to test his sons yet again. He tells them that he plans to attack the Romans again. Farnace is to fight the Romans in Asia, he himself, however, will march against the Capitol in Rome. Sifare begs to be allowed to lead the soldiers into battle in Asia – Farnace, on the other hand, thinks it would be better to secure the lands which are still part of the Empire and accept the Romans' offer of peace. Mitridate sees this as proof of Farnace's disloyalty, this impression being strengthened by his son's friendship with Marzio. Ismene tries to reassure Mitridate, saying he cannot prevent his children from rebelling against him.
Farnace retorts angrily that Sifare is actually Mitridate's rival as he has not only desired Aspasia but also had his affection returned. The king arrests Farnace and condemns him to death.
Mitridate tells Aspasia that he will renounce her hand in favour of one of his sons. She thereupon admits that she is in love with Sifare and hopes that the king will show understanding since they have never betrayed him. Mitridate, however, is horrified and wants revenge. In order to escape his anger, Aspasia and Sifare see suicide as the only way out of their dreadful situation.
Act Three
Arbate brings Mitridate the news that the Roman enemy is suddenly advancing on the town. Mitridate leaves to take up the fight. Before he leaves he gives orders that his second son, Sifare, should also be killed.
Aspasia plans to poison herself but Sifare, who has been released by Ismene, manages to prevent her from doing so at the last minute. As he can see no way of gaining Aspasia as his wife he prefers to seek death as a faithful son and follows Mitridate into battle.
Marzio frees Farnace from prison in order to encourage him to side with the Romans in the battle against Mitridate.But Farnace realises that he will never be able to win Aspasia's love and decides to stay loyal to his father.
Mitridate is forced to capitulate in the face of the Romans' superior forces. In order not to be taken alive into captivity he has wounded himself mortally with his own sword. He forgives Sifare and hopes that he will find happiness with Aspasia. Sifare now wants to take revenge on his brother Farnace for the death of their father, but Ismene explains what Farnace has actually done. He merely pretended to turn to the Romans in friendship and thus managed to cause an horrendous bloodbath from within. The dying Mitridate forgives both his sons, who swear to continue with the struggle against the Romans.

Less than five years after taking the helm of Legg Mason, Chairman and CEO Mark R. Fetting announced Tuesday that he would step down Oct. 1, possibly setting the stage for the sale of parts of the Baltimore-based money management firm.
Legg Mason has struggled for nearly five years to stop investors from pulling money out of its funds, and the company's stock never recovered from the 2008 financial crisis, even as some of its peers rebounded. Shares are down by more than 60 percent from when Fetting became CEO in early 2008.
"Given the abrupt nature of this announcement and the lack of a permanent successor, it seems probable that Fetting's departure was performance based," wrote Christopher Harris, a senior analyst with Wells Fargo Securities, in a report Tuesday.
After the announcement of his resignation, the company's stock rose more than 5 percent to close at $26.85 per share in New York Stock Exchange trading.
"No one should suggest that he was the cause of the problem and didn't achieve some success," said Jeffrey Hopson, a senior analyst with Stifel, Nicolaus & Co. in St. Louis. "It's also fair to say that they haven't fully achieved their goals that he set out, either."
Hopson suggested Fetting's departure may lead to the sale of some of its affiliate investment management firms.
Legg said it will hire an executive search firm to help find a new CEO among inside and outside candidates. In the interim, W. Allen Reed, Legg's lead independent director, will become non-executive chairman and Joseph A. Sullivan, head of global distribution, will fill in as CEO.
Legg's board and Fetting had discussed this move for awhile and concluded this was a good time for a change in leadership, Peter H. Nachtwey, Legg's chief financial officer, told analysts at a Barclays Global Financial Services Conference on Tuesday. Fetting is not being rushed out the door, he added.
"He's done a phenomenal job leading us through an incredible crisis," Nachtwey said. "We're still in the midst of a turnaround."
Legg's board has been asking what is the right leadership as the company gets "back into a growth mode," he said. "Sometimes fresh blood is helpful."
Legg's future is important to Baltimore, where it employs about 430 people. Its headquarters anchors Harbor East and the company plays an important philanthropic role.
Company spokeswoman Mary Athridge said that currently "there is no plan to change anything in Baltimore."
Fetting's resignation comes two months before time runs out on an agreement with shareholder activist Nelson Peltz to not force the sale or merger of any of Legg's investment affiliates, according to Bloomberg News. Peltz's company, Trian Fund Management LP in New York, is Legg's largest shareholder with a 10.9 percent stake. Peltz joined Legg's board in 2009.
Citing Peltz and others, Harris wrote: "It is possible certain of these activists pushed for change at the CEO level as [Legg Mason's] turnaround has been somewhat slow to develop."
Fetting, 57, joined Legg in 2000. The Baltimorean replaced Legg Mason's longtime CEO Raymond A. "Chip" Mason in early 2008 and took over Mason's role as chairman in December of that year.
Fetting took the reins during a rocky time. As the financial crisis unfolded, clients were abandoning Legg funds, including the flagship Legg Mason Value Trust, because of poor performance.
The company continues to suffer from client withdrawals, although the pace of those outflows has slowed. Legg now has about $636 billion in assets under management, down from $1 trillion when Fetting became CEO.
Stifel's Hopson called the timing of the announcement surprising, but not the fact that Fetting was leaving. Fetting never had the support of many in the investment community, he said.
Legg's board initially chose James W. Hirschmann as Mason's successor, but Hirschmann bowed out, preferring to stay in California leading Legg's Western Asset subsidiary.
"Wrongly or rightly, Mark was thought of as perhaps the second choice internally," Hopson said.

Two-Vehicle Injury Collision on Pennyrile Parkway
Date of News Release: 02/03/2014
Crofton, KY (Christian County) - The Kentucky State Police investigated a two-vehicle, injury collision that occurred on the Pennyrile Parkway at the 19 mile-marker, approximately four miles south of Crofton, on Sunday, February 2, 2014, at 4:18 p.m.
The preliminary investigation revealed that Wesley Obrien, 17 of Clarksville, TN, was operating a 2006 Saturn passenger car northbound on the Pennyrile Parkway when he observed a standard motorist in the median and pulled over to the shoulder to assist the occupants. Kim Konczal, 47 of Madisonville, KY, was operating a 2005 Mazda pickup truck northbound on the Pennyrile Parkway when she lost control of her vehicle while attempting to slow for the stopped vehicles.
Mr. Obrien was standing on the passenger side of his vehicle leaning into the passenger compartment when he and his vehicle were struck by Ms. Konczal's vehicle. The impact forced Mr. Obrien from his vehicle onto the roadway. Both vehicles came to final rest in the median.
Both Mr. Obrien and Ms. Konczal, who was wearing a seatbelt, were transported via ambulance to Jennie Stewart Medical Center for treatment.
Trooper Ryan Fox investigated the collision. Sergeant Timothy Sales and Hopkinsville EMS assisted at the scene.

University Relations
ABERDEEN, S.D. – Northern State University is mourning the recent loss of two students.
Casey Luedke, 21, of Watertown, Minn., and Tate Senftner, 20, of Onida, both passed away unexpectedly on New Year's Day.
"The loss of a student or students, at a very young age, is always difficult for a university president," said NSU President Jim Smith. "Like all of my colleagues here at Northern, we send our deepest sympathies to the families of these young men. The fragile nature of life is clearly made real when something tragic happens; this is especially true on a small campus, like ours, where our faculty and staff know these students so very well."
Senftner was a member of the NSU Wolves football team.
"We are very saddened at the loss. Tate was the epitome of a true student-athlete, excelling in the classroom, the weight room, and on the playing field," said NSU Football Coach Tom Dosch. "Our prayers go out to his family, friends, and teammates during this tragic time. He will be missed by Wolves Football."
The NSU Counseling Center is available to students to assist during this difficult time. The Counseling Center can be reached at 605-626-2371 or 605-290-5699.
For more information, contact NSU University Relations at 605-626-7747 or 605-216-3951.

LANSING (WKZO) -- State Representative John Olumba is leaving the Democratic Party to become an Independent and the lone member of the Independent Urban Democracy Caucus.
In making his announcement, Olumba says that the Democratic party is moving away from historically African American objectives that are rooted in faith and morality. He also talks about the fact that there are no African Americans or Detroiters on the House Tax Policy committee and says that the only African American Detroiter on the Appropriations Committee will be forced to leave next year because of term limits.
Olumba represents Michigan's 5th House District.

Showcase also had licensed characters, such as G.I. Joe and James Bond.

- FabulousEricaDined on 9/19/2014Had such a great time. Everything was so delightful we went back the next day. We started with the short ribs- fantastic! My husband had the pork and I the cod both meals were wonderful and cooked perfectly. The second night we tried the pasta dish which was more filling but certainly just as delicious. The service was timed and certainly did not feel rushed even though both nights we had late reservations. The price cannot be beat. Cannot wait to return!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- outstanding experiencereluctantreviewerDined on 9/18/2014What a wonderful dinner and dining experience in the White Mountains. Every aspect of dinner was enjoyable, from the ambience, to the service, and especially the food. You will not be disappointed - give them a try, even if you have to drive a little bit.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/16/2014This was our third year now that we have gone to the White Cider for our Anniversery while on vacation in NH. It is one of our favorite resturants no matter where we go. Great food and great people that make it so special.Special Features:
- Quaint New England DiningJessDined on 9/14/2014This place lived up to its online reputation... great "farm to table" type food at relatively reasonable prices. Nice servers, neat atmosphere although maybe the lighting is a little too dim. Would certainly eat there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Elegant Casual DiningOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 9/13/2014Cider Co never disappoints. It is rustic and casual in decor but with an elegant atmosphere. We came for our favorite dish, porcini dusted chicken and pasta. While I prefer the original dish with penne, the homemade fettucini was deleicious too. Because the pasta is fresh it soaked up all the delicious sauce so in the future I would ask for it a little saucier, but the dish was still flavorful and hard to beat. Then of course there is the signature apple cider donut and ice cream with caramel sauce... warm crispy donut with cold isce cream is decadent and delicious. I wil be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved it!MeggyinbosDined on 9/12/2014Went here while on our babymoon and the food is to die for! Get the cider donut dessert - doesn't matter how full you are, you have to get it - it's that good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Another good one!WaterdogVIPDined on 9/12/2014WMCC's food is outstanding - always a wonderful surprise with the specials and a menu with great choices for appetizers, salads and main courses. Among the very best! Great valueSpecial Features:
- disappointing experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/10/2014Previously been totally impressed with White Mountain Cidar Company... But it was a disappointing experience this time. The cod dinner tasted of ammonia, and inedible. My husband ordered the steak,which was cold.Was returned, then served raw. Our friend ordered the cod, but was served the pork chop. Was informed that the cod would take fifteen minutes, so accepted the chop,which was delicious. All and all, not the best experience.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/8/2014Friendly and well informed staff. Very accommodating and Chef Tim came to our table to review his Vegan offerings. Food was excellent and we plan on returning for another meal as soon as possible.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- CarolDined on 9/8/2014We really had an enjoyable time here. The food was outstanding & the service was great! Can't wait to come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hidden Gem!AllisonHall1Dined on 9/6/2014I was very impressed by White Mountain Cider Co! I planned a weekend away at the Mount Washington Resort for my boyfriends 30th birthday, this restaurant came up with a few searches I did with great reviews. It was a little bit of a drive from the hotel, but WORTH IT. Our meals were outstanding, with a great blend of flavors. Each dish was unique and left us wanting to come back and try the whole menu.Special Features:
- 47th AnniversaryBradyBoyDined on 9/3/2014My wife of 47 years a couple of dear friends and myself decided to dine at the White Mountain Cider Company on Sept 3rd. The place has a great reputation and I wanted to dine somewhere special on our anniversary. The atmosphere was great, the staff was very friendly and the food was sparse but very good. We had to wait quite a while before our waitress took a drink order. My guest ordered a Dewars and water and was told that they had run out of Dewars, but that they could sub another scotch. The bartender brought a Crown Royal and water which is a whiskey and not scotch. He had wine instead. We ordered two appetizers to share, but I never got my crab cakes.

- Our favorite area restaurant!GaryDined on 8/23/2014There are several good fine dining places in the Bartlett-North Conway-Jackson area, but White Mountain Cider Company gets our "favorite" vote. The ambience is a perfect fit for the area and the service is friendly and good. It is the food that makes it really stand out, though. Every selection I've tried, and we were there for dinner three times this past visit, has had me stop and say, "Wow, this is great!" There are eating places that are enjoyable, and then there are some that give you the feeling that you are someplace special. Give this place a try.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fresh FoodErinDined on 8/22/2014I am still dreaming about the food we ate there; we loved it so much we went back two times on a three night stay. The natural wood/exposed beams, brick...just add to the ambiance. But the food is the real star of the show. We tried almost every app on the menu and each one was more mouth watering than the next. My personal favorites, although hard to choose, would be the mushroom crochets or the crab cakes.Special Features:

Cosy and informal in combination with good food and wine. Crab cakes were delicious and presentation was a piece of art. For us, Europeans, this was the best Restaurant we have met during our road trip through Maine, New Hamshire, `MassachussetsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Celebration DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/16/2014Excellent food and lovely service. We are in the area once per year for the Mt Washington Bike Hill Climb but the first thing we do when planning the trip is book our table for dinner at White Mountain Cider Company. It is always our celebration dinner and it never disappoints. Food is outstanding. Wish it was closer to our home so we could go more often.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- White Mountain Cider Co.OpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 8/15/2014This place was recommended to us by a N. Conway resident who clearly knew the restaurant scene very well. An outstanding find and it must be the best place around for miles. Had the cheese plate which was superbly presented, the chips (1/2 portion was still too much for 4 people), Korean short ribs, the steak, a house salad, and the lamb entree. Everything was just perfectly presented and executed. This is definitely the foodie Mecca of the Conways! My only criticism is despite a great wine and beer list they only had one cider available...in a bottle, not on tap, and not made in house? Isn't this a cider mill? But admittedly I visited in summer, not autumn.Special Features:
- Excellent dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/13/2014We had eaten there two years ago and loved it, and this time it was even better. Every dish we had was fantastic!
- The Only One...RHP1955Dined on 8/12/2014We were on a road trip to New England states a few weeks ago. We had one stop each nigh in a different town/state. One such stop was North Conway. We had booked our dinners in advance: there are many restaurants in N.Conway (I had been there before), but truly White Mountain Cider Company is a gem in the area. Located in Bartlett, a few miles north of N. Conway, it is the ONLY place that is worth going to for dinner. Nondescript from the outside -- sitting somewhat isolated on the side of a state route -- the food menu and the subsequent execution of it was a pleasant surprise. The waitress, Sarah, reacted to our expressions, saying, "there is something about it here in the kitchen: UMAMI...it hits all your senses and then some". Try it!Special Features:
- Great food!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/10/2014Had a reservation for dinner on a Sunday night and it was a good thing as the restaurant was crowded. We started our dinner with zucchini soup which was absolutely mouth watering! For dinner we had Statler Chicken and roast duck and both meals were mouth watering. For dessert we had to try the donut and ice cream which is their speciality and it was delightful. Highly recommend it and will definitely go back when in the area.Special Features:
- Local flare!PamHDined on 8/10/2014This is the second time we've gone to White Mountain Cider Company and absolutely love it! Would recommend anyone visiting the North Conway, Glen, Jackson area a must eat! Great wine & cocktail selection, food is from local farms and is prepared & presented fabulously! I look forward to our next trip to north country so we can visit WMCC again! Kudos to the Chef & staff!Special Features:
- To Dine For...jrsFOODbeerDined on 8/9/2014We took a private cooking class with Chef Tim back in May that included a dinner tasting the previous evening. We could not be happier with Chef Tim, the FOOD, and his help including the waitstaff at your establishment. We will seek you out as well as recommend you whenever we visit the north!Special Features:
- Best place in Mt Washington ValleyElizabethDined on 8/8/2014We enjoyed another great meal at the Cider Company last night. We each had a small salad to start that was a mix of crisp fresh greens, apples, nuts and a house fried onion on top. A great way to start a summer meal. My main course was cod. It was cooked perfectly and came with lovely small gnocchi and perfectly cooked green beans. My two dinner companions enjoyed their meals as much as I did. We had it paired with a really good bottle of red win. As usual, a really good meal for all!Special Features:
- Didn't disappointFoodieRDDined on 8/6/2014We last dined here years ago during our weekend getaway and we didn't stop talking about our meal forever. We finally made our way back and it was just as great as we remembered. You're missing out if you don't check this place out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great FindVisitorDined on 8/2/2014Couldn't believe we found this restaurant in the middle of the mountains! Great menu. Very adaptable for kids. They really let us take our time which was great since we indulged with each course. The potato chips with different sauces were fun. It comes with a huge bowl filled with chips. The 5 of us had not problem finishing them. The fried calamari was unique with more of a corn meal coating. The sauce that came with it was nothing I have ever had. It was fantastic and also went well with the chips. Entrees were creative and layered with flavors. We are from NY and this restaurant could do great down there!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- What a pleasant surprise!!Jenny20Dined on 7/25/2014We live in northwestern NH and there aren't many restaurants in the "north country" we would recommend. I found this restaurant on Open Table and hadn't even heard of it -- but I had to be in the North Conway area, so I said, "well, it can't be better than the usual NH "great" - which is usually only good at best ... But this is GREAT. Creative, fresh, insightful dishes and a nice wine list. Really superb! I will make special trips there. Go!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best restaurant in the area!RoadWarriorDined on 7/24/2014We ate there last year and couldn't wait to come back this year! Great menu.... You want to order every item on the menu! Great food and amazing flavors! We were a table of five this year and all ordered different courses... We tasted each other choices and everyone was impressed with all of them! Professional and friendly service make this place the best of all restaurants I have tried in a 20 miles radius! (and I have been to quite a few!)Special Features:
- DisappointedDisappointedDined on 7/23/2014I had heard so much about this restaurant and had not been able to get a reservation the last time I was visiting the White Mountains, so my expectations were high. I started the meal with the Blue Cheese stuffed dates which were served warm and very delicious! We followed that with the Korean Short ribs which were not short ribs, but meat from the ribs. The 3 pieces of meat were dry. I felt that $9 for 3 small, dry pieces of meat was steep. For my entree, I had the scallops on polenta. The scallops were small and slightly overcooked and the polenta was nothing to write home about. The Hot Cider donuts (served with vanilla ice cream & caramel sauce) were also dry and not freshly made. Wish they were fresh out of the deep-fry!Special Features:
- A Lovely EveningloverofgoodfoodDined on 7/22/2014The evening got off to a great start with Sarah, our delightful, efficient waitress. We were pleasantly surprised that the bar had a bottle of Dubonnet, a very rare occurrence these days. From then on, we were all delighted by our drinks and food from appetizers to dessert.Special Features:

Multimedia Message ServiceAbbreviated as MMS, Multimedia Message Service is a store-and-forward method of transmitting graphics, video clips, sound files and short text messages over wireless networks using the WAP protocol. Carriers deploy special servers, dubbed MMS Centers (MMSCs) to implement the offerings on their systems. MMS also supports e-mail addressing, so the device can send e-mails directly to an e-mail address. The most common use of MMS is for communication between mobile phones.
MMS, however, is not the same as e-mail. MMS is based on the concept of multimedia messaging. The presentation of the message is coded into the presentation file so that the images, sounds and text are displayed in a predetermined order as one singular message. MMS does not support attachments as e-mail does.
To the end user, MMS is similar to SMS.

(re) Discovering Shaving
Preface: My knowledge and expertise in shaving is maybe 1/200th my knowledge about coffee and espresso. That means I know very, very little. So please take this posting with that in mind.
Recently, I decided to up my shaving game. I don't suffer from excessive ingrown hairs or really bad irritation from shaving, but it seemed to be getting a bit worse in recent years. I looked into it, and started discovering that there are better ways to take care of your face when shaving. I also discovered there's an entire world of "shave geeks" out there, who are definitely on par with CoffeeGeeks, if not more so. Many of them congregate over at Badger and Blade, which is a well run, respectable community of shaving freaks.
After some research, I decided if I was going to do this, I'd be going all in (though I really didn't - see below): I'd buy a top of the line kit from the get go, and just dive in.
I ended up buying an Edwin Jagger Chatsworth (that's a style line) Faux Horn set that included a silvertip badger brush (a pretty wide one), a cartridge razor handle, a stand and a steel bowl (for catching drips and also a small bowl for creating lather), I finished it off with a apothecary soap mug and a few good soaps. I bought the set at Vancouver's Mr. Lee's Haberdashery and got a deal because the brush had some cosmetic damage (I got the set, including soap mug and soaps for around $250ish, which I know is still insanely expensive, but retail was around $375). I was planning on a $200 budget for everything, but this set was so nice, I opted for it.
My first mistake though was getting the cartridge brush handle (I have it for sale, barely used if you'd like it! $75! It sells for $148 new! It was a mistake for me, because for my slightly increasing skin and shaving problems, I wasn't eliminating the main problem - the multi-bladed razors. I needed to go double edged safety razor, and do multiple pass shaving.
So I bought the matching double edged safety razor and a big sample pack of razors (60 in all). The good news is, the razors are cheap - the 60 pack cost $20, including some very expensive ones.
Okay, all final purchases done. It's been a few weeks now, and I've noticed several things. First, my skin is improving quite a bit. Second, I'm getting an incredibly close shave. Third, the silvertip badger brush is finally breaking in and it feels like… feels like luxury. I can't describe it any other way. Fourth, I have to schedule about 15 to 20 minutes for shaving now in my daily schedule, instead of the usual 3-5 minutes. And Fifth and last? I'm loving it. I actually look forward to shaving now! Crazy!
Here's one of two shaving routines I have: one is fresh out of the shower, one is not.
Shower Shave
Before getting into the shower, my brush goes into a bowl with hot water to wet and condition it. I dribble about a teaspoon of water into my apothecary bowl with the shaving soap, to soften and wet it. In the shower, make sure my face gets lots of steamy hot water treatment. I also use a face cleanser to clean the whiskers and further soften them up. As soon as I get out of the shower, I use very hot water to partially fill the sink; I shake out a lot of the water and moisture from the brush, and start swirling it fast in the apothecary bowl. I get a lot of dense lather on the tips of the brush. Then I go to a second bowl I have (an old school cafe au lait bowl) and start building up my lather, adding a bit of water here and there to do so. Then I apply a first coat of lather to my fave with some vigorous brushing in circular motions, then a final "paint" to get the coat nice and even. The lather is moist, but not overly so - it can create peaks and density. Think hand-whipped whipping cream.
At this point, I haven't dried off from the shower, save for my hair.
First shave with the double edged razor is very light, kind of thinning and reducing the whiskers, always shaving with the grain (I figured out the grain patterns on my face). Then I re-lather, and shave again, still light, not much tugging and pulling, this time, across the grain of my whiskers. Then I'll re-lather again, and do a near final shave, still very gentle, against the grain in trouble spots, and across the grain in smoother spots. A few bits of brush-applied lather here and there for final touchups, then I rinse my face with cold water. Last thing I do is apply a good, non-alcohol based aftershave. Still working on finding even better ones.
Non-Shower Shave
Everything I do in the shower shave for the actual shave is the same. My prep is different. First, the brush goes into a bowl of hot water. Next, I run really, really hot water onto a face towel and soak that. Next, I splash really hot water on my face. Then I do all the lather-building stuff with my brush that I mentioned in the Shower technique.
The facecloth is soaking in hot water, my face is wet from hot water, and I've got lather. So I spread some of the lather on my face and scrub it in a bit, with my fingers. Then I take the super-hot towel, rinse it out a bit, and place it over my beard for about 1 minute. It looks awkward, but works. I wipe off any residual shaving lather, get the towel hot again, and reapply it to my face. This helps really, really soften up my whiskers, and it makes an unbelievable difference to the quality of the shave. This technique is also known as "Kyle's Technique" for the guy who argued why it was the best way to prep.
Then I follow the rest of the steps outlined in the Shower Shave, above.
This whole thing is pretty nifty, and it's become a new ritual for me. I'm not really super OCD nor am I clinically diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, but I do enjoy, and I think need, rituals in my life. This is a new one, and I'm quite enjoying it. My face is too.

The Official Website of the Louisiana Department of Revenue
BATON ROUGE - Two new options for filing state individual income tax returns are available to taxpayers this year, according to Department of Revenue Secretary Cynthia Bridges. The Department is offering free Internet filing of the state return from Revenue''s web page and providing free tax assistance and electronic filing through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program at all of its offices.
"Electronic filing is the key," Bridges says. "It''s quick, it''s easy, and it means faster refunds." Last year, refunds from electronically filed returns averaged 10 days or less, Bridges points out. "Refunds from paper-filed returns averaged between 22 and 45 days for the past two years." Last year, more than 368,000 returns were filed electronically by commercial tax return preparers, through the Internet, or by the free TeleFile program offered by the Department of Revenue.
"This year, the Department has added two more free options," Bridges says. "Anyone with a personal computer and Internet access can now go to our web page at www.rev.state.la.us and file their state return free of charge." She adds that federal returns cannot be filed through this new option. During recent years, Revenue has maintained links from its web page to approved commercial software providers. These providers may charge a fee for their software or for electronic filing of the state and federal returns. Bridges says links to approved commercial providers will still be available from the Department''s web page for those who wish to use that option.
The new VITA option has been a pilot program between the New Orleans Regional Office and the Internal Revenue Service for the past few years. "The program has been so successful, it was expanded to all Department offices this year," Bridges says. Under the VITA program, filers of the federal form 1040EZ and federal form 1040A can make an appointment to receive free tax filing assistance from Department employees who will help them complete their federal and state tax return forms. The Department will then file the returns electronically, free of charge. "The VITA program greatly assists our older taxpayers and those with lower incomes who cannot afford to pay for tax assistance or to have their returns filed electronically," Bridges says.
The two new filing options join the Department of Revenue''s already successful free TeleFile option that allows taxpayers to file their return using a touchtone telephone. Last year, more than 65,000 taxpayers used TeleFile to file their returns in an average of 8.6 minutes. "Taxpayers must be pre-qualified by the Department to use TeleFile," Bridges points out. Pre-qualified taxpayers are mailed special TeleFile booklets that contain a Personal Identification Number (PIN) for security purposes and instructions for filing. Bridges stresses that taxpayers must meet certain requirements in order to TeleFile. "Anyone who receives a TeleFile booklet in the mail is thought to meet the requirements, based on last year''s return," Bridges says. She adds that anyone who wishes to TeleFile, but did not receive a TeleFile booklet, may go to the Department''s web page or contact any Regional Office for a list of TeleFile requirements. Taxpayers who qualify and wish to TeleFile should call the Department at 1-888-829-3071 in order to request a TeleFile booklet and a PIN.

past debates, central questions, and future research possibilitiesFoss, Nicolai Juul (København, 2002)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The role of transaction cost economics in developing research in strategy has been a hotly debated topic over the last decade. This paper presents the radical argument that transaction cost insights are more than merely useful complements to existing approaches to strategy. Rather, they are necessary for adequately understanding the nature of strategizing. This is because transaction costs are essential aspects of processes of creating, capturing and protecting value. If transaction costs are zero, these processes do not pose any strategic problems; strategizing is trivialized in such a world. When transaction costs are positive, on the other hand, opportunities for value creation through the reduction of inefficiencies caused by transaction costs exist, and protecting and appropriating value are costly activities that dissipate value. Also, contracting and expectations enter as central aspects of strategizing. Arguments are provided for why economizing (with transaction costs) is more fundamental than strategizing (in the sense of exploiting market power). Thus, the paper argues that models in which the fullest possible account of transaction costs is made be used as the proper foundations and benchmarks for economics-based strategy research, rather than the patched-up competitive equilibrium models that are now used, more or less implicitly, as the benchmark in important parts of strategy research, most notably in the resource-based view.

Juul Andersen, Torben; Fredens, Kjeld (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Corporate entrepreneurship is deemed essential to uncover opportunities that shape the future strategic path and adapt the firm to environmental change (e.g., Covin and Miles, 1999; Wolcott and Lippitz, 2007). At the same time, rational central processes are important to execute strategic actions in a coordinated manner (e.g., Baum and Wally, 2003; Brews and Hunt, 1999; Goll and Rasheed, 1997). That is, the organization's adaptive responses and dynamic capabilities are embedded in integrative structures that accommodate dispersed business initiatives. The dual concerns for integration and entrepreneurial behavior are reflected in the conjoint need for effective routines and exploratory search in adaptive systems (e.g., Pfeifer and Bongard, 2007; Sutton and Barto, 1998). It has also been expressed as a need to balance exploitation and exploration (March, 2001) and configure ambidextrous organizational forms (e.g., O'Reilly and Tushman, 2008; Tushman and O'Reilly, 2004). In strategy research, optimization and rejuvenation perspectives have variously been described as intended and emergent strategies (Mintzberg, 1978; Mintzberg and Waters, 1985), top‐down and bottom‐up strategies (Nonaka, 1987), induced and autonomous strategy processes (Burgelman, 2005; Burgelman and Grove, 1996, 2007), central planning and decentralized initiatives (Andersen, 2000, 2004, Andersen and Nielsen, 2009). Burgelman and Grove (2007) outline such a combined strategy process and observe how central direction and dispersed exploration can change over time influenced by strategic leadership.

J. Foss, Nicolai, Volker Mahnke (København, 1998)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: We argue that strategizing fundamentally concerns disequilibrium phenomena, such as discovery, innovation, resource-combination, imagination - in short, entrepreneurship. Therefore, the understanding of strategizing is likely to be led astray by drawing too heavily on equilibrium theories. Arguably, the three dominant economic approaches to strategy - the Porter industry analysis approach, the new industrial organization, and the ressourcebased approach - are characterized precisely by their strong reliance on equilibrium methodology. We argue that the market process approach in its Austrian version offers much inspiration for bringing process issues to bear on strategy issues. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8093

Comparison of Danish and Swedish drug discovery firmsLund Jensen, Rasmus; Dahlgren, Henrich; Valentin, Finn (København, 2006)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This report studies employment effects associated with the adoption of modern biotechnology in Danish industry. In this context we also examine industry structure, patterns of job creation, key outputs such as patents and the pipeline of projects in clinical trials. To see the development of Danish biotech firms in a relevant context we compare a Danish segment of biotech firms with a matching Swedish segment. From an overall assessment modern biotechnology, despite the three decades elapsed since the first genetic manipulation, is still in a stage of experimentation, learning how to turn its new tools and approaches into an operational, reliable, cost-effective technology, sufficiently "pluggable" with other technologies. Therefore employment directly related to biotech is particularly visible and identifiable in firms focused on R&D. Outside this core of R&D activity other industries appear as early adopters of biotech, but only parts of their activities relate to modern biotechnology. From the outside it is difficult to isolate what share of their employment is attributable to their activities within biotechnology. In pursuit of clarity on the role of biotechnology this report studies a segment of Drug Discovery Firms (DDFs), which almost exclusively are based on capabilities in biotech research. This delimitation gives the advantage of studying a homogenous segment of firms. At the same time, this segment of biotech research firms is an informative indicator of the ability of the Danish economy to perform in the transition towards knowledge and sciencebased competitiveness. That is so because DDFs to an unusual extent depend on the ability of their framework to perform as an innovation system, by which we refer to advantages growing out of interactions and complementarities between e.g. universities, firms and venture capital. That makes DDFs a sensitive "seismograph" for the ability of the Danish innovation system to foster new science-based technologies.

A Corpus-Based Cross-Linguistic StudyGylling, Morten (Frederiksberg, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Effective communication requires texts to be organised into a coherent discourse structure. But languages vary considerably in how they do this, posing a challenge for effective intercultural communication. Instead of relying on our own preferred persuasion style to be the most effective, we need to take into consideration that people with different linguistic and cultural backgrounds do not necessarily employ the same linguistic means in similar communication situations. This is of particular importance in a business context, and a profound understanding of cross-linguistic differences in the organisation of argumentative texts is needed. In order to address this challenge, this thesis presents a study of structural characteristics in argumentative texts across three different languages. The aim of the study is to examine some of the linguistic means that writers of different languages employ when creating persuasive discourses. The study is based on 150 Danish, English and Italian speeches held by Members of the European Parliament in their native language. The linguistic means under investigation are conceptualised as belonging to three different structural domains which account for different ways of linking discourse units in a text: a syntactically organised text structure, a rhetorically organised discourse structure and an information packaging organised information structure. The structural domains are defined from a cognitive-functional perspective and juxtaposed into a single analytical framework. The analyses show that writers across the three languages generally use the same rhetorical relations to build up persuasive discourses. But the analyses also reveal that the Danish, English and Italian writers textualise relations differently. The Danish writers use almost exclusively finite verb forms in coordinate and subordinate structures. The English writers tend to avoid explicating the rhetorical relations between discourse units, and the Italian writers tend to include more units inside the same sentence than the Danish and English writers. The analyses also suggest that the cross-linguistic differences in textualisation can be correlated with certain persuasive strategies. The Danish writers tend to persuade by analogy, making use of typical features from narratives. The English writers make use of presentational persuasion style, involving themselves in a more personal way than the Danish and Italian writers. And lastly, the Italian writers make use of typical features from quasilogical persuasion style, adopting a formal register and argumentation. This thesis formulates an analytical framework for a systematic investigation of the structure of discourse across languages, pairing theories and methods from the two parallel disciplines of linguistics and rhetoric in order to gain more insights into effective intercultural communication.

Four Cases from Danish Monetary HistoryRavn Sørensen, Anders (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In this dissertation I examine the historical relationship between Danish national identity and monetary organization, defined as the Danish currency kronen and the Danish central bank Nationalbanken. The ambition of my analysis is twofold: firstly, I aim to understand the role of national identity in legitimating Danish monetary organization. Secondly, I analyze the importance of the Danish currency and Nationalbanken in the construction of national identity. As such, the dissertation focuses on the mutually configuring relationship between monetary legitimacy and national identity. Following ideas from organizational institutionalism, one of the basic assumptions in the dissertation is that all organizations, including central banks, must be aligned with, or at least not contradict, the values, norms and symbols of the surrounding national culture. To analyze this potential alignment historically in a Danish context, national identity is applied as an analytical concept that conditions the actions and decisions of organizations placed in a national setting. In the dissertation, national identity is understood as the continuous reproduction and interpretations of the cultural elements of the nation as well as individual identification with these elements. This definition of national identity allows for an analysis that involves more than how monetary organization become legitimate. Every attempt to align kronen and Nationalbanken with national identity constitutes, concurrently, a reproduction of national identity. Thus, while a central bank and national currency might require alignment with national identity to be perceived as legitimate, monetary organization also reproduces and bolsters national identity.

Carl, Michael (, 2008)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The paper introduces a new research strategy for the investigation of human translation behavior. While conventional cognitive research methods make use of think aloud protocols (TAP), we introduce and investigate User- Activity Data (UAD). UAD consists of the translator's recorded keystroke and eye-movement behavior, which makes it possible to replay a translation session and to register the subjects' comments on their own behavior during a retrospective interview. UAD has the advantage of being objective and reproducable, and, in contrast to TAP, does not interfere with the translation process. The paper gives the background of this technique and an example on a English-to-Danish translation. Our goal is to elaborate and investigate cognitively grounded basic translation concepts which are materialized and traceable in the UAD and which, in a later stage, will provide the basis for appropriate and targeted help for the translator at a given moment.

An Anthropological ApproachMoeran, Brian (Frederiksberg, 2011)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This working paper – written for inclusion as a chapter on Japanese society, to be published in Chinese by the Beijing University of Foreign Studies later in 2011 – looks at popular culture as a form of cultural production. It argues for the need to study popular cultural forms like advertisements, ceramics, fashion magazines and folk art as both products and as processes of design, manufacture, distribution, appreciation and use, which must all be taken into account. Precisely because popular cultural forms are both cultural products and commodities, they reveal the complementary nature of the two categories of culture and the economy. The paper outlines and analyses the different ways in which social, cultural, symbolic and economic capital are converted by those participating in advertising, ceramic, fashion magazine and folk art worlds, and suggests that popular culture may best be seen as a name economy.

Abstract: The medical record, the collection of notes and other documents concerning a particular patient, is a time-honored and robust institutional artifact. However, with patients with chronic ailments that typically are treated and monitored by multiple clinical workers, sometimes at different institutions, the medical record is more than 'beginning to burst': it is beginning to fragment. This becomes clear from our ongoing study of the coordinative practices of clinical workers dealing with patients with 'implantable cardioverter-defibrillators' (ICDs), i.e., pacemakers that dub as defibrillators....

Abstract: Mere end to tredjedele af statslige styrelser, råd og nævn kommer ikke slutbrugeren i møde på nettet. Med sneglefart og en tilsyneladende modvillighed mod at tage fuldblods digitale løsninger i anvendelse, synes styrelserne, råd og nævn at være opsat på at gøre ydelserne så løntunge som overhovedet muligt. Denne kontroversielle karakteristik kan være forklaringen på de resultater som en undersøgelse fra Handelshøjskolen i København afdækker for digitaliseringen af brugernes adgang til mere end 100 statslige styrelser, råd og nævn. Resultaterne fra undersøgelsen sår alvorlig mistillid til hastigheden og evnen til at udarbejde og gennemføre digital sagsbehandling og digitale løsninger med slutbrugeren i centrum. De eksisterende selvbetjeningsløsninger skriger til himlen om forbedring og nytteværdi for slutbrugerne. En endeløs række pdf-filer, excel-filer, informationer om telefontider og fysiske åbningstider er fortsat det dominerende billede af styrelsernes formåen på nettet. Det markante fravær af fokusering på slutbrugeren gør, at al tanke om at bruge de digitale medier til at løse arbejdskraftproblemet i den offentlige sektor synes at være så langt ude i tidshorisonten, at det nærmer sig fata morgana forestillinger. I stedet er hjemmesiderne for styrelserne, råd og nævn skabt om de marginale, og set fra et slutbrugerperspektiv, betydningsløse løsninger. Hjemmesiderne er halvhjertede løsninger og uden reelle forsøg på at skære den offentlige sektors administrationsforbrug ind til benet. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6507

Subsidiary Brands as a Resource and the Redistribution of Decision Making Authority following AcquisitionsDieng, Sebastian; Dörrenbächer, Christoph; Gammelgaard, Jens (København, 2008)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper analyses the moves global brewery companies undertake towards the distribution of decision making authority in their multinational organization and the likelihood of newly acquired subsidiaries to influence these moves. In this consumer goods industry, brands are suggested to be the primary subsidiary specific resource to influence these distribution processes. Empirically this paper explores three European acquisitions of the Dutch brewery corporation Heineken in Switzerland, Slovakia, and France. We explore whether differing brand value (regional/international, standard/premium) has had an impact on the subsidiaries" ability to maintain a certain degree of decision making authority after the take-over. The results of our case studies show, however, that the ownership of valuable brands may not be considered as a critical resource for subsidiaries here. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6601

Strategic Inertia in the Development of German-owned Subsidiaries in HungaryDörrenbächer, Christoph; Gammelgård, Jens (København, 2004)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Abstract This study reports the results of interviews with 65 managers in 11 German headquarters and in their 13 Hungarian subsidiaries. We focused on the role of the subsidiary with regard to market, product and value-adding mandates. Further, we investigated whether the Hungarian subsidiaries had experienced an upgrade of their role during the first 10 years of transition. The host country economy was supportive to role development, but inadequate subsidiary capabilities and headquarters' assignments prevented the subsidiaries from being upgraded. We propose that the corporate immune system, ie, ethnocentric behaviours emanating from the headquarters should be included in future upgrading analyses. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7300

The Success Stories of Malaysian SMEs in Promoting and Penetrating Global Markets through Business Competitiveness StrategiesSin, Khoo Cheok (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Over the past decade, the Government of Malaysia has become increasing aware of the significant contribution of small medium enterprises (SMEs) to the national economy. A number of Government programmes and incentives were offered to the SMEs in the past years but with limited impact. This lecture touches on the nature and contribution of the Malaysian SMEs in the first five years of the 21st century. An attempt was made to identify the success factors and weaknesses of SMEs from official reports of Government agencies, and findings of research studies on the subject. Recognising the challenges posed by globalisation and trade liberalisation on the Malaysian SMEs, the Government revamped its policies, programmes, incentives, and approaches which are currently implemented in the Ninth Malaysian Plan and the Third Industrial Master Plan. The objective is to enhance the SMEs' capacity and capabilities through continuous product development, knowledge and technology acquisition to empower them to compete with other global players offering high quality products and services at competitive prices.

Dec 5 2012: In the United States, to me, it's gun control. Mostly all of the Political leaders have not really directly addressed the issue, and still to this day we have problems with it. For instance, the young NFL football player who killed his girlfriend and himself, leaving their child behind. Also, the movie theater shooting, the Wisconsin mosque shooting, and the Gabrielle Giffords assassination attempt. Our political leaders, local and federal address it, but do not really get into it and do anything about it.
Dec 9 2012: You really need to think this through. Suppose you have your every wish, and you were the Dictator, to boot. Can you imagine the depth and scale of the Police State you would have to build to actually carry this out?! It would have to be much more stringent than the Soviet Union. The program would certainly force you into police state activities, such as midnight "searches" and confiscations which would rapidly become not only Uncontitutional, but wildly unpopular. All the while, giving the worst kind of criminals free rein, since they, of course would have guns. This idea that guns have a malign influence on people's brains is a holdover from the primitive idea of "Sympathetic Magic", ie. if you do "Rain Dances", it will rain. Sorry if I seem harsh, but how would you explain the Swiss? They have a Militia Army (machine guns and ammo in every home, but they have so few shootings that they don't bother much to keep track.).
