The Z-Pro TA200 inflatable canoe / kayak was designed for use by one or two paddlers. The Z-Pro Ta 200 is constructed from high-quaity materials and can be used on rivers, lakes and at the sea shore.
The Z-Pro Tango TA300 inflatable canoe has been - by far and away - the most popular model in the Z-Pro inflatable canoe and kayak range. The Z-Pro Tango TA 300 is a three person, family-friendly inflatable canoe / kayak. This inflatable canoe is of high-quality, with a new style of flexible protective fabric outer hull.
The Z-Pro Flash 200 inflatable canoe is far more stable than many traditional canoes and kayaks. The open top design of a Z-Pro Flash FL200 inflatable canoe/ kayak is less restrictive than a traditional canoe or kayak, making a novice canoeist feel a lot safer and confident than in a traditional "closed topped hull" kayak.

Lance Armstrong won't be 'Dancing' with any stars
CNN — It seems Lance Armstrong isn't interested in trying to cha-cha his way back into anyone's good graces.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the cyclist turned down an opportunity to compete on an upcoming season of "Dancing With the Stars."
ABC, the home of the competitive dancing reality show, reportedly reached out to Armstrong before he confessed to using performance-enhancing substances in a highly publicized two-part interview with Oprah Winfrey, and it seems that wasn't the first time.
A rep for Armstrong told EW that "Lance has been offered the show each and every year since its inception. Although flattered, he has passed on their generous offers."

So, who's going to win? Social media is pointing to a Little Mix victory. Although there may not be huge differences in the actual numbers of fans that each of the four remaining contestants have across both Facebook and Twitter, what separates them is how they are growing week by week. The rate of growth of each contestants social assets is reflected by their performance, what goes on during the week and so on. But viewing figures will obviously have an impact as well. If we look at the average number of fans that each contestant gained throughout the eight weeks, this follows a similar pattern to that of the viewing figures.

Brownback refuses to reveal nominees

By JOHN HANNA
AP Political Writer
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback's office refused Wednesday to disclose the names of the applicants for a state Court of Appeals seat, blocking an attempt by a critical group to cull a list from the daily calendars of Brownback and several top aides following his nomination of his chief counsel to the job.
Brownback's office responded to an open records request from the League of Women Voters' state chapter, made after his nomination last week of Caleb Stegall to a new position on the state's second-highest court.
The league has said it wants to evaluate statements from the administration that Stegall was the most qualified candidate. But the governor's office removed the other applicants' names from the copies of calendars it released, citing a provision of the Kansas Open Records Act allowing government agencies to keep "individually identifiable" records about "applicants for employment" confidential.
The appointment is the first since a law took effect in July that changed how Court of Appeals judges are selected. Under the old system, which is still in place for spots on the Kansas Supreme Court, a judicial nominating commission led by attorneys screened applicants and named three finalists, with no role for legislators after the governor picked one. Now, the governor appoints appeals court judges, who are subject to Senate confirmation.
The Senate plans to consider Stegall's appointment during a special legislative session that begins Tuesday and was called to fix the state's "Hard 50" criminal sentencing law for convicted murderers. Stegall faced a Wednesday deadline to submit a completed questionnaire and supporting documents to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
The league -- which believes the new selection system is more politicized -- received copies of the daily calendars from July 15 through Aug. 16 for Brownback; Stegall; Landon Fulmer, Brownback's chief of staff, and Kim Borchers, the governor's appointments director. All candidates' names, except for Stegall's, were replaced by blank spaces. After providing almost 140 pages of documents to the league, the governor's office released them to The Associated Press.
Brownback believes that disclosing the names would prevent qualified candidates from coming forward, said his spokeswoman, Eileen Hawley.
"We have always said those names would remain confidential, and we're honoring that promise," she said.
Dolores Furtado, the league's Kansas president and a former Democratic state representative, said its goal is to "have transparency" in the selection process.
Previously, the judicial nominating commission disclosed the names of all applicants and had public interviews, though its deliberations were closed. Supporters of the new selection system contend that it's more transparent because the Senate's deliberations will be public.
But Furtado said, "It is not an opportunity to compare or an opportunity to confirm that this is the most highly qualified person."
The calendars for both Stegall and Borchers show that she had a "judicial interview" with him on Aug. 6, and her schedule listed that she would be present for an interview with the governor on Aug. 14.
Borchers' calendars showed that she had interviews with a total of 13 judicial candidates, including Stegall, over three days, starting Aug. 6. Brownback's calendar showed a two-hour bloc for judicial interviews on Aug. 14.
The calendars did not contain any indication that Stegall was involved in the other candidates' interviews -- though he was involved in interviews for two district court judgeships.

Spring 2015 - Graduate Graduate 280H: Advanced Studies In African History: Decolonization And Nationalism In Post 1945 Africa The transfer of power from European colonizers to African leaders was a "tangled and controversial" process. In some colonies it was done in a precipitate haste while in others like Angola, Mozambique, Algeria, Namibia, Kenya and Guinea Bissau, decolonization was preceded by protracted armed struggles. This seminar will focus on the diverse dynamics which shaped the nationalist and decolonization processes in Africa. Differences in colonial systems, the nature of African political consciousness and mobilization, the role of the elite, peasantry, youth, gender, ethnicity, race, religion, economic rationalization/ pragmatism, imperial revisionism and devolution of empire, and international pressure among other topics will be discussed in an effort to explain the end of empire in Africa. |

We will plan to read the entire work (in translation, but with the Latin at our side) emphasizing three avenues of approach (or three themes).
The course will require in-class presentations of individual books of the CD and a final paper. |

280A: Ancient Boiotia: History, Epigraphy, and Culture Crosslisted with AHMA 210. Boiotia in central Greece played a prominent role throughout antiquity in the political and cultural developments of the Greek world. It was always a complex and in many ways atypical region, and its inhabitants were the objects of derision on the part of their Athenian neighbors. It is perhaps for these two very different reasons that study of the region has tended to remain in the hands of specialists. But a rich and rapidly growing body of archaeological, textual, and epigraphic evidence is available to support research on the area and its many communities and sanctuaries. This seminar will introduce students to the history and material culture of the region and delve deeply enough into the primary and secondary sources to allow students to write a research paper by the end of the semester. We hope to bring a number of visitors to present on areas of individual research and expertise, with the result that the seminar will offer a truly interdisciplinary approach to the study of a core region of the ancient Greek world. Students will be expected to write a brief (1p.) response paper each week; to write one book review; and to formulate a research project that will be the basis of both an oral presentation toward the end of the semester and a fully elaborated research paper, which will be reviewed in both draft and final form. We will emphasize scholarly process as much as outcome. |

We will also use the class to discuss more general matters such as the state of the profession, the discipline of History, and your own professional development - looking forward to presenting your own work at conferences, developing a dissertation project, publishing and getting a job. |

280U.001: Politics, Culture and the City at the Dawn of the Modern World What is the relationship between the built environment of the city, the cultures of its inhabitants, and the practices of their politics? How did cities around the world become the crucible in which modern political regimes were forged? This course examines these questions through the study of the politics and cultures of the early modern city. It has two related objectives. We will study the ways in which historians have narrated the history of early modern cities; in this way, we will seek to understand differing paths to the modern world through the city as both spatial and conceptual entity. As part of this inquiry we will read a wide variety of historical studies of early modern cities around the globe, paying close attention to themes of both comparison and connection. This course will require regular weekly responses from all participants and culminate in a twenty-page final research paper on either a city or a theme of particular interest. |

280U.003: Rhetoric of History, with a Focus on Kingship and Legitamacy The writing of history is always a rhetorical act, an attempt to make something happen with words. The means and modes of such writing differ from culture to culture, of course. In this seminar, we propose a comparative study of ancient historiography in the Mediterranean and in the China. Our materials for study will include the fifth-century BC Greek historian, Thucydides, the 1st century AD Judaeo-Roman Josephus, and two famous Chinese historians: Sima Qian, whose monumental Shiji or "Archivists' Records" (comp. 100 BC) of 130 chapters about the entire "the known world" is usually considered the history of history most comparable with that of Thucydides; and Ban Gu, author of the Hanshu or "Han History" (comp. AD 100), whose one hundred chapters represent a fine attempt to recast the basis for Han dynastic legitimacy.
Two mammoth compilations that became part of the state-sponsored Classics in China during the early empires will also be consulted: the Zuo Traditions, which claims to supply the behind-the-scenes motivations for kings and nobles during the tumultuous centuries leading up to the time of Confucius (551-479 BC), and the Documents classic, which purports to provide the most exemplary speeches from the pre-unification (pre-221 BC) period in the form of "canons," "counsels," "oaths," and "proclamations."
All texts will be available in English but those capable of reading the Greek ones in Greek and the Chinese ones in Chinese are invited to do so.

We will be reading books and articles that examine the political, social and cultural dimensions of matters relating to private lives and focus especially on how private lives have been affected by and also altered public life, including religion, economics, and politics. The readings include some that cover the period overall and others that focus on some smaller period of time or specific nation or problem. One of our objectives is to understand how the West has operated as a single region for some purposes, and how its has created quite distinct histories in others. |

280U.008: North American Borderlands
This reading seminar will introduce students to important historical work on North American borderlands regions, defined as regions where people interact across independent legal and political regimes. Put differently, borderlands are zones of plural sovereignty. Readings will include work on native polities and empires in colonial-era borderlands; borderlands and the rise of nation-state projects in the nineteenth century; and key problems in the US-Mexican and US-Canadian borderlands in the twentieth century. To sharpen our conversations, we will make occasional forays into key conceptual and comparative works that transcend the North American context. Most weeks we will discuss a monograph in common as well as an article or two.

285B: Thresholds of the Modern Age The period between 1500 and 1800 was the staging ground for many of the formations characteristic of what we understand to be European modernity: science, capitalism, social leveling, secularism, the disciplines of knowledge, and much more. This research seminar will offer students interested in the period a semester-long opportunity for intensive primary research and the writing of a substantial work of historical analysis on a topic in the field. It will also serve as a complement to this semester's History 280 "Substance of Things Unseen: Matter and Spirit, 1650-1800." Course is open to all. |

280E.001: Recent Works on Modern Mexico in Historiographical Perspective
The common reading in this course consists of recently-published books or articles that are either very good, representing current approaches to historical analysis of the period from independence to the 1970s, or newly-published books the professor would like to read (in the hopes that they, too, are good books). Each week there will be supplementary reading that will represent the some of the "historiographical background" to the week's common reading. "Historiography" means in part the classic works by Mexican and U.S. scholars from the nineteenth century through the 1950s. "Historiography" will also be taken to mean books published in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s that more recently-published books build on or revise. The professor will ordinarily pontificate for 20 minutes or so at the beginning of each class on the general historiographical context into which the week's readings fit. The course is thus ideally suited to preparing an orals field in modern Mexico. Students will write two 7-10 page review essays, based on the readings for one week plus 3-4 extra books from the supplemental reading. They will also lead the discussion that week. |

280/285B: Writing History in the Middle Ages CCN for 280B.001: 39774 CCN for 285B.001: 39879 The amount of history written in the European middle ages is staggering, dwarfing the number histories from contemporary Byzantium, China, and Islam. The diversity of the genres and the creativity with which writers adapted them is equally staggering. There are Latin histories and vernacular histories, prose histories and verse histories. There are histories of kingdoms and peoples, of cities, monasteries, and bishoprics, histories of reigns, histories of events, histories of the world and histories of individual families, even histories of fictions (e.g., Geoffrey of Monmouth's history of Arthur). Sometimes people (Salimbene, for instance) seem to write history just because they want to write history without caring much whether it's a history of anything at all. Because historians and literary scholars need to specialize in order to get any research done, too often they use particular histories relevant to their work without much awareness of what is or is not distinctive about them, and they make broad generalizations drawn from outmoded scholarship or limited reading. The purpose of this course is simply to read a small but representative sample of interesting histories from the middle ages, along with a small but representative selection of the most important recent scholarship. We will begin with four fundamental histories: Eusebius' History of the Church; Bede's Ecclesiastical History of the English People; the Royal Frankish Annals; and the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (concentrating especially on the "A" version). Because students are likely to have quite varied interests and needs, subsequent readings will be determined in the first class, according to a consensus within the class. I anticipate that the majority of the readings after the first four will be drawn from the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries (e.g., choosing from among Raoul Glaber, Lampert of Hersfeld, Berthold of Reichenau, Suger of Saint-Denis, Orderic Vitalis, Galbert of Bruges, Geoffrey of Monmouth, Henry of Huntingdon, Roger of Wendoever, Otto of Freising, Matthew Paris, Salimbene…). Almost all readings will be in English translation. Students who wish to take the seminar as a 285 will need to write a paper that demonstrates research ability using research languages. Much of the most important scholarship is in German, though only two such works will be assigned. For students who cannot read German, alternative assignments in French will be arranged. |

280S.001: Science and the Atlantic World, 1500-1850.
The discovery and colonization of the Americas radically changed the ways we understand the natural world. European mariners charted unexplored continents, colonial administrators learned about commercially-valuable flora from indigenous peoples, and an impressive volume of new objects flowed both ways across the Atlantic Oceans. This context of exploration, domination, and exchange framed – and perhaps caused – the scientific revolution. This seminar will provide entryway into the "Atlantic critique" in the history of science. How does knowledge move across space? In what way did scientific knowledge shape the Atlantic social world and vice versa? Historians of the 1500 – 1850 Atlantic will gain tools for studying the intellectual and scientific world of their actors. Historians of science will explore new historical techniques, such as geographies of science, mobility of knowledge, and transatlantic scientific networks.

280S.003: Data science - History, philosophy, sociology This is a graduate reading seminar querying the intellectual, institutional, and social bases of the rise of "data science," understood as a platform drawing from computer science, statistics, and research domain questions around working with new or large sets and streams of data. The seminar is directed to graduate students in the
humanities and social sciences. It is open to advanced undergraduates and to graduate students outside the humanities and social sciences with permission of the instructor. The seminar focuses on data science within the research university, though there will be space to discuss data science in other settings (industry, public/civic uses, open source communities, etc.).

280/285D: Colonial America and the Atlantic World to 1848 CCN for 280D.001: 39807 CCN for 285D.001: 39903 This seminar offers graduate students in history and related fields the opportunity to explore original research and in-depth readings in current issues in this rapidly expanding scholarly field. Potential topics include European colonization and conquest; indigenous peoples' histories and their entanglement with Europeans; the development of Atlantic world trade including the slave trade; the making of new American polities, economies, and the rise of capitalism; war and revolution; intellectual and cultural histories. Students will be expected to produce a significant work of original scholarship, or a series of review essays, depending on whether the course is taken as a 285 or 280. |

280D.002: American Legal History American Legal History is a reading and discussion seminar. It is also the Jurisprudence and Social Policy Program Law and History Foundation Seminar.
Considered as a field of study, legal history is as much history as it is law, and history is primarily a discipline of the book. For this reason I have chosen to make this a course that focuses on books, particularly books about the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Our goal will be to achieve a thorough and complete grounding in American legal history's formative literatures by reading a wide selection of the field's best work, ranging from the classics that have structured the field, stirred controversy and inspired generations of scholars (like James Willard Hurst's Law and the Conditions of Freedom and Morton Horwitz's Transformation of American Law), to the best work of the current generation (like Laura Edwards' The People and their Peace and William Novak's The People's Welfare), to notable recent work by younger scholars (like Margot Canaday's The Straight State and Ken Mack's Representing the Race). Our objective will be not only to accumulate considerable knowledge of American legal history, but also to examine the very different ways in which historians have chosen to write the history of American law (and the very different subjects they have considered appropriate to write about).

If technological trends persist, then our children's grandchildren will one day have to explain to their grandchildren that photos were once flat, unscented, and not the property of Lord Zortro. Protect and serve your memories with this Groupon.
Choose Between Two Options
- $24.99 for photo-to-DVD scanning of 500 images (a $95.95 value)
- $29.99 for photo-to-DVD scanning of 1,000 images (a $179.95 value)
Each option is valid for 4"x6" photos, which are scanned and converted to 300-dpi JPEG images on a standard DVD. Each option also includes return shipping and handling for the original photos and data DVDs (a $15.95 value).
ScanMyPhotos.com began in 1990 as a small retail photo center in Irvine, California, but thanks to innovations in Kodak photo-scanning technology soon blossomed into a national, online picture preserver. Lauded by Popular Photography as the "leader in digitizing prints", featured by USA Today, and mentioned in both Forbes and the Wall Street Journal, the company artfully converts printed memories into edit-ready, 300- or 600-dpi images conveniently stored on a data DVD. Technicians can also convert slides and negatives into digital files, restore timeworn photographs, and transfer VHS or 8mm to high-definition DVDs so that moms can preserve their child's first birthday party and dads can update the home videos where they reenacted episodes of Charlie's Angels.
93% of 381 customers recommend
"they are very friendly and easy to work with - simply follow the instructions"
"Had awesome customer service and the picture scanning turned out fabulous "
"My coupon stipulated 300DPI as the resolution; another time I'd pay the additional cost to have scanning at 600DPI for significantly improved quality."

4 2GB For £17...RandomSpoo0 | 26/06/2007 | See all RandomSpoo0's reviews (10)Well what can I really say, I'll tell you this I recently just bought a 1GB card from a shop in my local town and I paid £20 for it I now see I can buy a 2Gb one for £17 yes I am buying this one straight away.The capacity that it can hold for the value of the card is great I am really impressed =]
5 It includes an adaptor!tommyb82 | 11/09/2008 | See all tommyb82's reviews (1)Great price, great bargain and it includes an adaptor for original memory stick slot so don't do what I did and but one separately!
5 outstandingutterjono | 19/10/2007 | See all utterjono's reviews (1)is a brilliant buy!bought one for my girlfriends camera and even with post strikes arrived quick. is a brilliant value for money memory stick!!
5 Essential at this price for PSP ownersAikonEnt | 23/07/2007 | See all AikonEnt's reviews (23)Top 100 Games Reviewer When I got my PSP on release date I bought 2 1GB Memory Sticks (1 Sony, 1 SanDisk) and they both cost me around £80 each. Then a couple of months ago Play.com were selling this 2GB version for £27.99, which I bought without hesitation. Now that it's down to £17.99 there is absolutely no excuse not to buy at least one of them. The 32mb stick I got with the PSP is, to be perfectly honest, useless in it's size. Why Sony thought it would be a good idea is beyond me so buying extra memory is pretty much the first thing to do just to make the PSP the multimedia experience it's supposed to be. Now some will argue that you should get 4GB or 8GB because more memory is better and that is true, but for most people the 2GB stick is perfectly adequate. I have around 4 hours of video, 130 mp3's, around 200 photo's, half a dozen demos plus all my game saves and downloaded content and still have 120mb free from the initial 2GB. So for me this size of memory stick is perfect because you can get a fair amount of things on it and it's at a very good price, plus if you need more room just buy another one for the very reasonable price of £17.99 (and will probably be even less in the not too distant future). You can also use these with the PS3 if you use the supplied adapter to view photos and listen to mp3's stored on the memory stick. Though a word of warning about doing this, when I tried it I couldn't get the thing back out of the PS3 as there wasn't enough of the thing poking out for me to grab and I ended up having to use a pair of pliers! But it worked perfectly other than that.
5 Superb! BARGAIN !!!!!maz558 | 19/03/2008 | See all maz558's reviews (2)This is my second 2Gb card. I bought the first one in June for my digital camera for when I went on holiday. The capacity is excellent. Mine held all my holiday memories (750 photos + videos) with still some space spare! You won't be disappointed with the quality either. If you are looking for a memory card then this is a must! IT'S A BARGAIN at less than £14!

Apologizing for the slight divergence from our regularly scheduled programming (football) in advance:
In what has become a weekly saga around these parts, we take a look at our (and by our, I mean Syracuse's) former stomping grounds (the Big East), which look more like a graveyard most days. While addition has been on everyone's mind lately, it appears that some more future defections could lead to subtraction in the future (shockingly?). Says the Chronicle of Higher Education: "…two Big East members (that) have had conversations about leaving the conference to start a new league built around traditional basketball powers." This is, of course, of no surprise to anyone who's ever been on the inside of the hulking, slow behemoth known as the Big East. But the bigger questions still loom — who are the two Benedict Arnolds, soon to be the "new Pitt and Syracuse?" and if these schools were to form a basketball superconference, who else would be on board?
Obviously, the additions of schools like SMU, Houston and UCF to the basketball league do nothing for the overall quality but provide additional punching bags for the likes of Georgetown and Louisville. Since most of the Big East currently pads their out of conference schedule in advance of what's usually a brutal 18-game league schedule, these additional bottom-feeders really don't help. We can surmise that multiple basketball schools are unhappy about this, but which ones are so unhappy they'd consider defection? Keep in mind that candidates will almost definitely be of the league's old guard, and won't have a football program (or much of one to speak of). They also won't be Providence, because John Marinatto and the school hold joint ownership of the conference (metaphorically). Which leads us to Georgetown and St. John's. Why them, but not say Seton Hall or Marquette? Simple: TV revenue.
Once again, we know that schools are unhappy with this setup, but you have to look at which ones possess enough value to attract other big basketball schools away from their respective conferences and into the "Roundball League" (or whatever probably horrendous name it adopts). Since the Hoyas and Red Storm deliver parts of the New York and D.C. markets, these are your best options. We avoid Villanova since not only do they fail to be the hottest game in town, but their football program is looking to move up in the world (not possible in a basketball-only league). With these two main players set, the following Big East teams probably jump at the chance to join up: Marquette, Seton Hall, DePaul. Assuming they aim for 12, who else do they grab?
- Xavier (Atlantic 10)
- Temple (Atlantic 10/MAC)
- Massachusetts (Atlantic 10)
- Butler (Horizon)
- Memphis (C-USA)
- Richmond (Atlantic 10)
- Dayton (Atlantic 10)
In this scenario, we assume Memphis and Temple are pushed by the Big East failing to extend an invite (highly plausible). Recognizing the sinking ship they'd remain a part of, 'Nova would finally jump to this league, as would Providence. For the final two spots (and to keep it semi-regional), I'd encourage George Mason and VCU. What you're left with is a 16-team basketball superconference, whose weak link would probably still be DePaul (surely the Demon Deacons don't find this as entertaining as I do). To be honest, they'd probably get just as many bids as the ACC for the NCAA Tournament every year (if not more). A frightening thought, but far too important to ignore.
If this all comes to fruition (we're far from that right now), who'd you like to see in this basketball-only superleague? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.

"What are they teaching your kids about global warming?""What are they teaching your kids about global warming?" asked National Journal (June 26, 2014). The answer is provided by "a patchwork of climate instruction guidelines that largely leaves teachers to their own devices, facilitating massive disparities in global-warming education from school to school and state to state." NGSS in US News and World Report
"Political debates surrounding climate change and creationism are now making their way into America's schools, as more states are deciding whether to adopt or reject new common science standards "that put a greater emphasis on controversial topics like global warming and evolution," according to US News and World Report (June 20, 2014). Oklahoma science standards adopted
On June 19, 2014, Oklahoma's governor Mary Fallin approved the state's adoption of a new set of science standards, according to US News & World Report (June 20, 2014), despite the objections of state legislators to their inclusion of climate science. Good news for evolution in Britain
The British government recently clarified and extended its ban on teaching creationism in academies, according to a June 18, 2014, press release from the British Humanist Association, which congratulated the government "on its robust stand on this issue." Wyoming churches endorse NGSS

Orfeo ed Euridice
Opera in one act by Christoph Willibald Gluck (1714-1787)
Libretto: Raniero de Calzabigi
We are presenting Gluck for the very first time. The myth tells of Orpheo, who will bring back his beloved Euridice from Hades - if he can take her back to the world of the living without turning around and looking at her. Gluck, who reformed the opera, will have a tricentennial celebration in 2014 and we take this opportunity to set up the rarely played Parma version, here with Katarina Karnéus and Kerstin Avemo in the title roles.
Conductor: Laurence Cummings
Direction: David Radok
Set Design: Lars-Åke Thessman
Costume Design: Karin Erskine
Light Design: Torkel Blomkvist

Dance programme by Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Saburo Teshigawara.
Two masters have created new pieces. A dance by Belgian multimedia artist Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui can contain everything from deep spirituality to comedy. What interests him most is what happens between the dancers. Saburo Teshigawara is one of the world's most prominent choreographers. Everything he creates is aesthetic, beautiful and austere - but also spiritual and subtle. The music in Metamorphosis consists of newly composed electronic music and a capella choir vocals. Both pieces have been newly created for the GöteborgsOperans Danskompani.

La Juive
Opera in five acts by Fromental Halévy (1799-1862) Libretto: Eugène Scribe
Very demanding for the singers. The romantic and dramatic music in La Juive requires excellent singers, and the main female role of Rachel is played by the French soprano Mireille Delunsch. She portrays the Jewess who falls in love with a Christian prince and the story is full of love and oppression. The production comes from the Lithuanian National Opera and in the other roles we also see Lars Cleveman and Ida Falk Winland.
Conductor: Pierre Vallet
Direction, Set Design and Light Design: Günter Krämer

Paul McCartney Anounces 'Out There' Tour, First Polish Gig
Friday, March 22, 2013
Paul McCartney has announced the first dates of his 2013 "Out There" world tour. McCartney is set to perform his first ever show in Poland on June 22nd at Warsaw's National Stadium and on June 27th, will play Vienna's Happel Stadium. The tour is expected to also include both North and South American dates. It's doubtful that McCartney will be releasing a full itinerary, choosing instead to announce only a few shows at a time. Insiders say that McCartney may be hitting the States sometime in November.
McCartney explained that his pre-show regimen is a world away from the cloak and dagger process of getting the Beatles into the venues prior to their '60s concerts: "It's really nice. Y'know, sometimes I will do, like, a radio (interview) on the way in. 'Cause it's kind of exciting; you're in a town and you're actually in the police motorcade, and you're actually going to the venue. And I always think it's really cool -- if I was the listener -- I'd think it's really cool: 'Yeah! Wow, he's in the town, and yeah!' y'know? And we get in and we do a soundcheck, just sort of check out our instruments and stuff. And often do a bunch of songs that we don't do in the show in the evening."
Last month, McCartney's most recent studio set, Kisses On The Bottom, won the Grammy for "Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album."
McCartney's latest track, "Cut Me Some Slack," was recorded with the surviving members of Nirvana -- Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear-- and is featured on the Sound City soundtrack album, Sound City: Real To Reel.

It's shielded with huge steel shutters that can be closed with a handwheel when the owners leave.
Courtesy Olson Sundberg Kundig Allen Architects
Flood-proof and virtually indestructible, this steeland-concrete cabin perches on the floodplain of a 43-acre site. It's shielded with huge steel shutters that can be closed with a handwheel when the owners leave (top left).
Tom Kundig, FAIA, likes concrete and steel because they are indestructible materials, and the fact that many of the parts used in this tiny cabin could be fabricated off site and bolted together quickly and inexpensively. But he also likes the way rusted steel blends with the trees. "People immediately react to weathered steel because they think of it as an unnatural material," he says. "It takes awhile for them to realize it looks like bark." The judges noticed, and commented that the cabin shows the hand of man yet is pure. "It blends into the landscape like a New England church," one said.
Because the little square tower sits on a 100-year floodplain, Kundig raised it on stilts like a tree house, with large windows on each side so the owner can see in all four directions. One-half of each exterior wall is glazed, while the other half is clad in 16-gauge, hot-rolled steel sheets with exposed steel fasteners. When the owner closes up the house for the season, he does it literally, using a handwheel that simultaneously moves the four 10-foot-by-18-foot shutters over the glazed portion of each façade. "Like an open-and-shut case," Kundig quips.

Nickel not working so well for Kansas
By GEOFFREY CALVERT
Associated Press
LAWRENCE -- After watching Kansas surrender at least 40 points six times in Big 12 play last season, coach Charlie Weis reached a couple of conclusions.
First, his base defense wasn't designed to stop high-octane Big 12 offenses. Second, he had to switch some personnel to keep opposing teams from using the spread to create mismatches.
"Everyone has three and four wide receivers out there and you can't match up base defense against four wide receivers and be competitive in this league," Weis said. "So many teams are not only running no huddle, but snapping the ball so fast."
To address the first issue, Kansas switched to a nickel defense as its base this season. The new formation gives the Jayhawks a fifth defensive back and a buck, which linebackers coach Clint Bowen called "a glorified defensive end more than he is a standup linebacker."
As for the other issue, Weis brought in three junior college transfers to start in the secondary. One of those starters, Cassius Sendish, began at nickel back before switching to safety to help shore up the only area of the secondary Weis felt was a weakness.
Last Saturday, Kansas (2-2, 0-1 Big 12) had its first chance to test its new defense in conference play. Texas Tech ran 100 plays, passed for 404 yards and thumped the Jayhawks 54-16 in front of a stunned home crowd.
Weis doesn't think the defense played as bad as the statistics indicate. The Jayhawks' offense struggled protecting the football and went three-and-out on three straight drives in the first half, and the Red Raiders turned short fields into 24 points.
"I don't think the pace was the problem," said Weis, whose team plays TCU on Saturday. "I think it was the volume of plays that became the bigger problem."
To prepare for the rapid-fire Big 12 offenses, Weis implemented a drill where one offense ran a play, and after the whistle blew a whole new offensive team set the ball and snapped it.
Often it happened within 12 seconds.
Frenetic, yes, but Weis believes the nickel maximizes his team's athleticism and will keep it from getting worn down. The fifth defensive back replaces the strong side linebacker and shoulders defensive back and linebacker responsibilities.
After all, the Big 12 was the second-fastest league in the country last year, with its teams averaging 73.8 plays per game. Of the Jayhawks' opponents, seven of them ran more plays against them than the national 71.5 average, with Baylor running a blistering 91 plays in its victory.
"The game is different, the game is faster paced," Kansas defensive coordinator Dave Campo said.

This episode follows the astonishing destructive force of volcanoes and how they have shaped the landscape. It examines volcanoes both recent and in the past, including Mt. Vesuvius in Pompeii, and its effect on life at the time. Nature gives no true warning of when a volcano will erupt, and this makes its power all the more terrifying and devastating. Only about 9.5% of the earth is solid, including the iron core. State of the art graphics show how the molten interior expands with the heat of the core, rising towards the cooler surface, which then causes the material to contract and sink, only to go through the same process again, creating a constant churning cauldron of molten rock. This driving engine of energy is always looking for a weakness, always trying to break through the crust that contains it - and sometimes, it does. When this happens, we get a glimpse of the fiery turmoil within; it is no accident that the name volcano comes from Vulcan, the ancient Roman god of fire.
With 70% of the earth's surface covered in water, it is bound to play a massive part in the earth's history and future. This episode looks at the importance of water in shaping the earth's landscape, as well as its role in the survivial of civilization. Formations like the Grand Canyon and Niagara Falls are the extreme examples of water's power to create landscapes. The powerful effects of ice are also observed in the erosion of rock as well as its effect on the sea levels. Floods and Tsunamis are documented using case studies from around the world. It is thought that water arrived on the surface of our planet thanks to two major processes. The early planet was almost constantly erupting; this process released water vapor from the molten material below the earth's outer crust. Vapor collected in the early atmosphere, gradually forming clouds. At the same time, Earth was being bombarded by a series of asteroids, many of which contained stores of water. As they crashed into the earth yet more water vapor was released to join the cloud layer. Eventually the air became saturated and the earth's first and longest storm began. It is thought that the downpour of rain lasted for a million years, flooding much of the planet. Indeed, when the rain eventually eased, 90% of the planet was covered by water. Today, water remains concentrated in the oceans that still dominate our planet.
Weather is the primary focus of this episode, as it looks at the devastating effects of tornadoes, lightning storms, and the winds. It also reveals the stranger sides of the atmosphere, in particular the moving rocks in Death Valley, and the shower of frogs and fish that happens occasionally. Kick-started by the heat from both the sun and the superheated solid core of the earth, and driven by the cycle of water and ocean currents, the movements of the atmosphere can be as relentless a force as any. In a few hours wind can decimate a city, and over centuries it can shape our landscapes. These movements in our atmosphere are influenced by many factors. Air currents carry entire weather systems with them and, as currents are constantly colliding, it becomes extremely difficult to predict how these systems will react and how their future paths will be resolved.
