OMG I Have Actual NYE Plans!
December 29, 2011
It was New Year's Eve 2006. I was in a relationship with JD's dad, pregnant and didn't know it. Prior to meeting JD's dad, I made plans with my single NYC girlfriends and bought a plane ticket to San Francisco. That was literally the last time I celebrated New Year's Eve. No, really.
I stayed at my friend, Lo's, parents' house. We went to wine country (I drank wine and ate sushi. I didn't know I was pregnant!!) We partied and danced, but ya know what? I was uncharacteristically exhausted. JD's father texted me non-stop while I was away. On NYE he sent me silly texts like, "Rum and Coke Round 4 Missssss Youuuuuuuu!" 2007 rang in and that is the year everything changed. My entire life, every single aspect from love, what I ingested, to where I lived, worked, socialized, spent money, saved money. Everything changed and I had it all to figure out alone. Happy New Year indeed—not! But, then on August 30, 2007 JD was born and yes, indeed, it was the happiest of the years! I am so lucky. Thank God for 2007. I grew up and I fell in love—in love w/ JD.
In 2007 JD was a brandy-new infant. We ate dinner with my family and drove home to our apartment on December 31. We were both asleep by 10 PM and JD was up at 3 AM for a feeding—party at the crib! In 2008 JD had Bronchitis and that about sums up the partying for that entire holiday season—bummer. In 2009 I was admittedly feeling a little sad and lonely. We had an early dinner with family and turned in early. We slept in my bed together. It was cozy and cute and we ate pancakes in bed on Jan 1, 2010. In 2010, I was sick. No plans. NONE.
I am happy, so happy to report I have legitimate New Year's Eve plans this year. Or should I say, we do. We're going to a kid-friendly pot-luck New Year's Eve party in the town I grew up in. I'm making a pasta salad and bringing some appetizers. I won't be drinking, because I'll be packing PJs for JD and driving us home at some point—and I couldn't be more thrilled! I mean someone is making Cannoli dip! We're clearly getting cray cray!! LOL.
We're going to a New Year's Eve party! With people! With friends! There will be noise makers and hats! No one is sick (yet). No one is sad. Everything is perfect!

Bret Easton Ellis and Paul Schrader Are Raising Money for Their Upcoming Thriller, The Canyons, on Kickstarter
The last time we checked in on The Canyons, the micro-budget noir written by Bret Easton Ellis and directed by Paul Schrader, Mr. Ellis was talking up your girlfriend's favorite porn star James Deen to play one of the film's leads. A very Post-Empire move, if you ask him. (Not familiar with Mr. Ellis's theory? Here's a good rule of thumb: The Hills is Empire, Jersey Shore is post.)
The movie's financing strategy, however, might be even more low-brow, brilliant. A few hours ago, Braxton Pope, the film's producer, formerly of Lionsgate, posted a fund-raising campaign for The Canyons on Kickstarter with the goal of raising $100,000. Read More

The Curiosity Cycle: Preparing Your Child for the Ongoing Technological Explosion
Get The Curiosity Cycle at Amazon (Kindle and paperback) and at Barnes and Noble (Nook and paperback)
Table of Contents, Preface, and First Chapter
Through curiosity, children carve out concepts from the environment that they assemble into models to describe the world. Children then test those models to see how well they predict what they observe, and they use the results from those experiments to form new concepts and models---leading to the next round of the curiosity cycle. However, our children are more than passive observers. They are an embodied part of the world and have brains that are predisposed to see the environment in particular ways. To get the most from their curiosity, children must build models about the intentions of those around them and the tendencies within themselves.
These curious minds will be entering a world that is increasingly dominated by computation. Computers are becoming better at understanding the physical environment, and this will transform the workplace and alter how we spend our free time. This book explains how your child can understand how a computer thinks and how your child can leverage his or her curiosity to thrive in a world with intelligent computers where human creativity is valued above all else.
Praise for The Curiosity Cycle"If Mugan starts his book with wisdom that would have been familiar to our grandparents, he ends it with wisdom that seems to come from our future grandchildren." Singularity Hub
The Curiosity Cycle "offers very helpful 'games' or strategies that parents can use to encourage not only curiosity, but critical thinking in their children. . . . If you have an interest in fostering your child's curiosity (and what parent doesn't), then take a look at this book." The Thoughtful Parent
I talked about The Curiosity Cycle as a guest on The Future and You podcast.

DuroMax 10000w Portable Gas Electric Start Generator RV Standby Camping

Lowest Price: $999.99 from Amazon.com

Lots of power per $
This is a lot of generator for the price. The generator starts easily using the electric start, and a pull start is provided in case the battery is flat. With a 16HP engine it is not quiet, but it is no louder than my 6kw generator. The folding handles are somewhat disappointing, and can be bent at the pivot point rather easily. A 3rd party tri-fuel kit is available to run this generator on gas,...

Build Quality issues, but seems to work fine.
Pros: Great price. 240 ac, 120 ac and 12 volt dc output. Cons: Arrived with several loose screws, making me worry about QA at the factory. Lots of rattling. Louder than advertised. Hooking up the battery is very hard. In spite of my quality concerns, this generator has performed well for its first 6 hours.
By nickfank on Home Depot - May 1, 2013
Looks good so far. Real load test to come.
I would have never bought a generator from Harbor Freight but this is the same generator that HF sells. (found out after I bought it) That being said, it looks great and I have ran it twice with a 1500 watt heat gun load just to test it. I am going to do and actual "outage test" and run most of my house next week.
By lakebum on Home Depot - Feb 26, 2013
Most competitors generators have covers for the receptables. This generator does not have receptable covers.
Have not used the generator. Battery negative cable difficult to connect, due to the location of the negative post. Top panel of the generator was caved in due to shipping. Once dent was hammered out, battery cable attached, oil and gas added, the generator started with ease. Home Depot Customer Service personnel were outstanding in assisting in the placement of my order.

Prime Healthcare Services Recognized as Top Performers — ONTARIO, Calif., Sept. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — The Joint Commission on Wednesday Recognized Nine Hospitals Either… (Click here to read complete story on PRNewswire.)
Chino Valley Medical Center Named a "100 Top Hospital" in the Nation
Chino, Calif., April 16, 2012 – Chino Valley Medical Center today was named a "100 Top Hospital" by Thomson Reuters, the world's leading provider of information and solutions to improve the cost and quality of healthcare.
"This reflects the outstanding hard work, dedication and excellent patient care that our hospital provides," said James Lally, DO, MMM, President and Chief Medical Officer of Chino Valley Medical Center. "We are proud to be acknowledged as a leader in health care with this prestigious award."
With nearly 3,000 U.S. hospitals surveyed, the hospitals demonstrated that high-quality patient outcomes can be achieved while improving efficiency. According to Thomson Reuters, if all hospitals performed at the same level as the 100 Top Hospitals award winners:
• More than 186,000 additional lives could be saved.
• Approximately 56,000 additional patients could be complication-free.
• More than $4.3 billion could be saved.
• The average patient stay would decrease by nearly half a day.
• The typical winning hospital charges $464 less per discharge than the typical non-winner.
"This prestigious recognition speaks volumes to our commitment to quality patient care," said Prem Reddy, MD, FACC, FCCP, Chairman, President and CEO of Prime Healthcare Services. "I congratulate the physicians, nurses and staff at these hospitals for their deep devotion to the highest standards of quality care in the country."
Five of the nine California community hospitals that earned the Thomson Reuters "100 Top Hospitals: National Benchmarks for Success, 2012" were Prime Healthcare hospitals: Centinela Hospital Medical Center, among the large community hospitals, Chino Valley Medical Center, Garden Grove Hospital Medical Center, West Anaheim Medical Center [three-time winner], among the medium community hospitals, and Desert Valley Hospital [six-time winner], among the small community hospitals. This is the thirteenth time a Prime Healthcare hospital has been recognized with this honor.
The Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals study evaluates performance in 10 areas: mortality; medical complications; patient safety; average patient stay; expenses; profitability; patient satisfaction; adherence to clinical standards of care; post-discharge mortality; and readmission rates for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), heart failure, and pneumonia. The study has been conducted annually since 1993. Hospitals do not apply, and winners do not pay to market this honor.

text: It's easy to become jaded when changes in SERPS trample upon your success, but you have to keep learning and trying to figure out who has the best information, and learn about what they are doing successfully. Often it is more of a 3-5 year plan, not a 3-5 week plan. Getting in too much of a rush is generally the biggest "noobie" mistake.

Capitalism, Socialism and DemocracyCapitalism, Socialism and Democracy remains one of the greatest works of social theory written this century. When it first appeared the New English Weekly predicted that `for the next five to ten years it will cetainly remain a work with which no one who professes any degree of information on sociology or economics can afford to be unacquainted.' Fifty years on, this prediction seems a little understated. Why has the work endured so well? Schumpeter's contention that the seeds of capitalism's decline were internal, and his equal and opposite hostility to centralist socialism have perplexed, engaged and infuriated readers since the book's publication. By refusing to become an advocate for either position Schumpeter was able both to make his own great and original contribution and to clear the way for a more balanced consideration of the most important social movements of his and our time. |

Review: Capitalism, Socialism and Democracy
User Review - GoodreadsRightly considered a classic, this book contains some amazing one-liners that still hold true today. Unlike Adam Smith, it does not rise above its time completely, and Schumpeter's laws didn't hold up empirically.

OLYMPIA (AP) -- State wildlife officials have documented Washington's fourth wolf pack, the Teanaway Pack of Kittitas County.
DNA tests of an adult female wolf caught and radio collared last month confirmed the animal is a wild gray wolf. The wolf was lactating, indicating she was nursing pups. Biologists are monitoring the wolf's activity through the tracking collar.
Before the Teanaway Pack, there were an estimated 25 resident wolves in Washington.
Gray wolves are making a comeback in Washington decades after being trapped and hunted to near extinction. Gray wolves are protected as endangered species throughout Washington state. The animal is also federally protected in the western two-thirds of the state.
The state's three other packs including the Lookout Pack in Okanogan County, and the Salmo and Diamond Packs in Pend Oreille County.

| Armor Mesh Backpack Bag Reviews
Reviewer:Melissa Burnson6/25/2013 Meshy Mesh Bag - this bag holds all of my gear and generally works great. there were a few things i wasnt quite ready for. first, the handle and the top-to-bottom zipper are on opposite sides of the bag its a bit awkward. there is also a lot of mesh - i had anticipated more fabric to hold it together. its not a big deal, but you do have to be careful to not accidentally start a hole by roughly stuffing gear in or yanking it out. the back pocket is very deep, so dont think you are getting easy access to the items congregating on bottom. none of these are show stoppers. all in all, its a good bag for a good price. | |

Summary (Magill's Survey of American Literature, Revised Edition)
"This Is What It Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona," which several years after it was written provided most of the plot underpinnings of Alexie's first movie, Smoke Signals, presages some of the later concerns of Alexie's novel Reservation Blues (1995), in which Victor and Thomas and several other "skins" create an all-Indian blues band known as Coyote Springs, and they go on the road. This story, however, is neatly structured around news of Victor's father's death in Arizona and the task of retrieving his ashes, old pickup truck, and modest savings and returning north.
Thomas is perhaps Alexie's most compelling character in terms of being deeply esconced within his tribal traditions yet still willing and able to critique those traditions and articulate various ironies. As Thomas greets Victor at the tribal trading post and expresses condolences for his loss, Victor asks how Thomas learned of Victor's father's passing. Thomas, the tribal storyteller, says: "I heard it on the wind. I heard it from the birds. I felt it in the sunlight. Also, your mother was just in here crying." Thomas continues throughout the story as both an avatar of traditional practice and an ironic commentator on it.
Although Victor had a problematic relationship with his father, as well as with Thomas, part of their trip to Arizona involves Thomas recounting experiences with Victor's father. This creates a sort of modern...

Summary (Masterplots II: Short Story Series, Revised Edition)
"This Is What It Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona," a story about reclamation, focuses on the relationship between Victor and Thomas Builds-the-Fire, two young Native American men who have grown up together on the Spokane Indian Reservation. Estranged from each other since they were teenagers, Victor is presented as the modern Indian, a man who has lost faith in himself and in everything Indian and traditional. Thomas Builds-the-Fire is Victor's antithesis, a dreamer and a traditional storyteller.
The central action of this story is a journey these two men take together to Phoenix, Arizona, where Victor's father, who left Victor and his mother when Victor was seven, has died of a heart attack in his trailer. They take this journey to claim Victor's father's "savings" and ashes. Having just lost his job at the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and financially unable to make the trip with the one hundred dollars given to him by the Tribal Council, Victor runs into Thomas Builds-the-Fire, who offers to lend him the money he needs on one condition. Thomas says Victor must allow him to go along, since Thomas had promised Victor's father that he would "watch out" for Victor. Aside from their childhoods, Victor's father is the link that ties these two men together.
The two men take a plane to Phoenix, and on the plane, they meet and talk to a passenger named Cathy, a gymnast who says she was first alternate on the 1980 U.S. Olympic team. Thomas Builds-the-Fire initiates contact with her, and this impresses Victor....

'Here's another winning, imaginatively conceived disc from Britain's finest pianist … It is unexpected and delightful programme-building. Prized for his pianism, Hough is also a superb Mozartian. He lends these Fantasias an almost Beethovenian weight and depth of expression … Hough's playing is dazzling throughout' (Sunday Times)
'There are all too few pianists with the equivalent of Hough's three Michelin stars … Opening with two of Mozart's solo masterpieces, the ear is welcomed into an intimate, pellucid sound world with a sophistcated grading of dynamics … [Liszt-Busoni Fantasy on Non piu andrai] provides a hair-raising bravura display that deserves to be heard more often. At least, when played like this' (Gramophone)
'In a typically well-made progamme, the compelling British pianist springboards of Mozart into a series of tributes. The virtuoisic challenges are handled with liquid clarity and intelligent expression. Mesmerising in the Mozart, the transition to a more modern take comes surprisingly fluently' (The Times)
'A scintillating exploration of Mozartian style in tribute works by other composers. Easily the most attractive is by Stephen Hough himself, who takes three small pieces and reinvents them in the style of Poulenc. The result is a seductive, spicy and totally original addition to the genre, and a nice counterweight to the Liszt-Busoni Figaro fantasia, which the prodigiously talented Hough plays with his trademark intensity' (The Observer)
'A bold and dramatic account of Mozart's K475 C minor Fantasia opens this memorable and imaginatively devised recital. While emphasising the prophetically romantic nature of the music, Stephen Hough takes great care not to overplay its more forceful passages … The final party piece, the Liszt/Busoni Fantasia on themes from The Marriage of Figaro, is a sure-fire crowd-pleaser given an exhilharating performance guaranteed to bring the house down (BBC Music Magazine)
'Hyperion's imaginative new collection shows this protean artist to be equally at home in the Classical repertoire. Not surprisingly, he offers romantic and highly pianistic Mozart … The result is a trio of performances of splendid variety … The recital ends rousingly with Liszt's Figaro Fantasia. Compared to the other post-Mozartian rarities, of course, this is standard fare—but it sounds freshly minted in this improvisatory reading … notable for his revelatory inner-line clarity even in the most congested textures and for his ability to reveal the underlying gestures in passages, that, even in Gilels' hands, emerge as a mere blur of notes. Excellent Hyperion sound and useful notes by Harriet Smith only add to the virtues of this first-rate release' (International Record Review)
'Hough's Mozart playing is so fresh, so sensitive to the harmonic twists and the way the prase can simultaneously suggest different feelings … This 2006 Keener and Eadon production from St George's, Bristol, is impeccably presented, with a congenial note by Harriet Smith' (International Piano magazine)
'We look forward to Hough's recordings. They are never disappointing, and this one is a classic. With excellent engineering and Harriet Smith's very informative notes, only those who do not value great pianism can afford to miss it' (American Record Guide)
'In this deft tribute to Mozart's genius, splendid pianist Stephen Hough leads with a pair of the composer's own works before segueing into transcriptions, homages and his own Poulenc-inflected "transformations." Hough is incapable of an unengaging performance, as he demonstrates right off with an account of the Fantasia in C minor, K. 475 that pulls back from stormy drama for something more tactfully measured and delicate. An unfinished Liszt fantasia on "The Marriage of Figaro" music, amended by Busoni, gets a wittily theatrical treatment' (San Francisco Gate, USA)
'A new record from Stephen Hough is always something to look foward to, and A Mozart Album is no exception … Altogether an outsanding disc released by Hyperion' (Liverpool Daily Post)
'[Hough] is certainly one of today's most thoughtful and thought-provoking pianists, as his latest thematic Hyperion set underscores … playing with a mix of depth and detail that only the best pianists achieve … he connects kindred spirits in a witty, lovely way' (Star Ledger, USA)
'Stephen Hough generally does not disappoint in terms of programming… [his]Mozart is exemplary, with the Fantasias approached with a free sense of tempo and a careful attention to the dynamic contrasts and articulations in the score… The pendant piece is the Liszt-Busoni fantasia on themes from Marriage of Figaro, in which Hough displays his considerable technical wizardry and whimsical attention to details' (IonArts.com)
Andante cantabile
Allegretto grazioso
Hommage à Mozart
Minuet, K1
Klavierstück, K33
We are delighted to present an eagerly awaited recital disc from Stephen Hough. This fascinating programme begins with some of Mozart's most audacious and forward-looking piano works. Mozart's Fantasia in C minor K475 is a wonderfully unfettered and uninhibited work, suffused with high drama and a sense of constantly shifting moods. The Piano Sonata in B flat major K333 is a similarly ground-breaking piece, developing in scale and drama from its lyrical, gentle opening. The second part of the disc features Mozart as seen by others, from the homage of a near-contemporary right up to the modern day, with Hough's own irresistibly quirky Mozart imaginings, and from elegant miniatures to Liszt/Busoni's virtuosic Figaro Fantasy. This disc is full of surprises, and demonstrates the full range of Hough's extraordinary artistry. |

Introduction |
Mozart is made neither of porcelain, nor of marble nor of sugar, opined Alfred Brendel some twenty years ago. It is a sentiment worth recalling even today where his solo keyboard music is concerned. While the achievement of his piano concertosa medium he elevated from mere grace and charm to a new level of profundity and virtuosityhas long been recognized, there is still a tendency in some quarters to regard the solo piano pieces as altogether slighter creations. And while the fantasias are admired as documents of his awesome improvisatory skills, their mould-breaking experimentalism, as wild as anything to be found in Beethoven, is rather less lauded.
The Fantasia in C minor, K475 triumphantly demonstrates the point. What an extraordinarily original and daring way to begin a piece, with a ringing spare, bare octave, followed by a motif that creeps rather than sings, jostled by one diminished chord after another. Mozarts audience must have been struck dumb. The work dates from May 1785 and is frequently performed in tandem with the C minor Sonata, K457, in part because they were published together and both dedicated to Therese von Trattner. But both are so potent in their own right, so drenched in despairfor Mozart C minor was a key of inkiest blacknessthat such an approach can only lessen their individual impact. The Mozart scholar Alfred Einstein greatly admired the Fantasia, commenting on Mozarts ability to indulge in the greatest freedom and boldness of imagination, the most extreme contrast of ideas, the most uninhibited variety of lyric and virtuoso elements while yet preserving structural logic. That freedom is exhibited in many wayschromaticism abounds, and again and again Mozart ratchets up the tension by increasing dissonance rather than resolving it. Effects such as tremolos prefigure Liszt, and intensify the feeling that weve swapped the salon for the high drama of the opera house, with passages that emulate recitative, arioso and aria. The entire work is pervaded by a sense of restlessness full of constantly shifting moods, daring modulations and the exploitation of the complete range of the contemporary piano, with the hands often in widely contrasting registers, a particularly strong colouristic effect on a period instrument. And yet, as Einstein points out, it is structurally coherent, falling into several clear sections, with the second Adagio recalling the first. While this sense of clearly mapped-out sectionsequally evident in the other C minor work heremay owe something to the fantasias of CPE Bach, that is where the similarity ends. In scope and depth of mood Mozart looks far into the future, to Liszt, perhaps even on to Busoni. It is hardly surprising that there were at least three orchestral versions made of K475 early in the nineteenth century, so potent are its colouristic effects. The Fantasia in C minor, K396/K385f dates from slightly earlier: Mozart left it unfinished in 1782 and it was completed by Maximilian Stadler (17481833). Like the later piece, it immediately announces its darkness of mood, this time with a turbulent ascending arpeggio. Again, it thrives on seering dissonances, diminished chords, a lack of harmonic resolution, copious chromaticisms and unexpected harmonic twists. But it has a greater pathos, with figures of wispy delicacy set high above strong bass-line foundations, and it lacks the seething quality of K475. Even so, when the opening arpeggio reappears in the major, it offers only a brief reprieve, as Mozart soon veers back to more ambiguous harmonic territory, landing once again in the minor with a left-hand accompaniment in the middle of the keyboard while the right hand darts from high to low, as if duetting with itself. Unlike K475, which ends in a mood of defiance, this Fantasia, following a reprise of its opening material, evaporates gently away to nothing. Maximilian Stadler was himself an accomplished composer, but his posthumous reputation rests principally on his role as music adviser to Mozarts widow. He was the first to order and catalogue the composers manuscripts, completing several of them besides K396. As well as having a sympathetic ear and a light editorial touch, he seems to have been a fascinating figure in his own right, anticipating John Cage in his invention of a kind of eighteenth-century music of chance, determined by the throw of a dice, and making arrangements of chants of the Mevlevi whirling dervishes. Mozart wrote his Piano Sonata in B flat major, K333 in 1783 in Linz, where he and Constanze were staying on their way from Salzburg to Vienna. Superficially it might seem less groundbreaking than the fantasias, with its sunnier key, lighter textures and a plethora of irresistible melodies. But all is not as it might at first appear. The alluring opening, with its gently yearning appoggiaturas, gives way to a more dramatic second theme which creates tension through the interval of a seventh. This idea of a lyrical theme followed by a more extrovert one turns conventional sonata form on its head. This is a work that seems to increase in scope as it unfolds, and once again memories of the opera house are never far below the surface, with an agitated minor-mode development section, where syncopated right-hand writing is set against restless semiquavers in the left hand, while the composer exploits the contrast of registers to the full. The recapitulation relaxes into the graceful opening theme, and the movement ends in a mood of benign serenity. The Andante cantabile unfolds at an unhurried pace, balancing tenderness with a certain solemnity. By contrast, the high-kicking finale takes off in a quite different direction. It is a concerto allegro in all but name, with clearly defined passages of solo and tutti writing, accents, dramatic silences and terse phrasing all adding spice. Even brief excursions into the minor cant displace its ebullience for long, and Mozart adds a full-blown cadenza for good measure, in which major and minor battle it out beneath a soaring, trilling operatic line. Light triumphs over darkness as the opening theme is recalled, heralding a simple but emphatic ending. The second part of this programme features Mozart as seen by others. We travel in time from the homage of a near-contemporary right up to the modern day, with Stephen Houghs irresistibly quirky Mozart re-imaginings. The delightful tribute by the long-lived Johann Baptist Cramer (17711858) introduces a moment of calm reflection. Though now largely forgotten by non-pianists, he was once a figure of great renown. Beethoven considered him the finest pianist of his time, while Moscheles praised his legato, adding it almost transforms a Mozartian Andante into a vocal piece. Certainly Cramer regarded himself as an upholder of what were then considered Mozartian ideals, namely grace, elegance and clarity. These are perfectly exhibited in the sixth of his Études Op 103, Hommage à Mozart, a lilting study in E flat major with a pervasive dotted rhythm which accelerates to a skittish climax before subsiding to an elegantly sighing close. Grace, elegance and clarity are equally discernible in the Minuet by Ignaz Friedman (18821948), based on an unassuming divertimento for string quartet and two horns. If this is Mozart made of sugar, then its a creation of the finest spun sugar, taking pride of place in a patisserie window, for Friedman views the simple piece through late-Romantic eyes, replete with double-trills, a startlingly Grainger-esque opening harmonization and quasi-pizzicato rolled chords in the left hand. This contrasts with a trio section where bubbling right-hand figuration is then joined by the minuets opening theme, now a counter-melody in the left hand, before a reprise of the minuet proper. From Mozart as sugar to something altogether more insouciant from Stephen Houghs own pen. He writes of his Mozart Transformations (after Poulenc): I wrote these three transcriptions as a result of being invited by the 2006 Salzburg Festival to give a recital with a Mozart/contemporary theme. Not being able to find anything suitable with which to add a little modern twist, I thought I would compose something myself. Poulenc and Mozart seem to have little in common at first sight, but perhaps their similar sense of humour, with its naughty, child-like quality, as well as a love for melody and the human voice, gives them a certain kinship. The Minuet and Klavierstück (Nos 1 and 2) are very early piano pieces of the utmost simplicityno chords, merely two independent lines, one in each small-spanned hand. I have kept the childlike melodies exactly as in the original, but allowed the harmonies to wander down the most adult paths. The Minuets first four bars are original Mozart, but after that we slink into other bars where Parisian aromas of Gauloises and Guerlain curl seductively around the melody. The Klavierstück recalls Poulenc in one of his Stravinskian moodspiquant, spiky and ironicuntil it dissolves into the wound-down innocence of a music box. The late song Sehnsucht nach dem Frühlinge (No 3) is a precious shaving from the workbench of the third movement of Mozarts Piano Concerto in B flat major, K595. As in the Minuet, I have taken the original simple melody and added harmonic spicesometimes seductive, sometimes strident. Franz Liszts Fantasia dates from late 1842. He seems to have played it just oncein Berlin on 11 January 1843. The piece was left incomplete, lacking an ending, and the manuscript appears to be a work-in-progress, with question marks over certain passages, and no tempo indications or dynamics. Uniquely among Liszts opera paraphrases it takes the themes of not one but two operasThe Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovannithough at no point are they combined, as one might expect. Busonis versionrenamed Fantasia on two themes from Mozarts Le nozze di Figarodates from 1912 and is far tauter than Liszts original, omitting the Giovanni music altogether and bridging the resulting gap with a ten-bar passage, a simple enough process given that the transition to and from this section is in C major. Busoni also provided sixteen bars to conclude the Fantasia. His touch is subtle, restoring to circulation a forgotten Liszt piece without overlaying his own musical personality too emphatically. Mozart was, for him, a god-like figure, far removed from the earlier nineteenth-century view, and Busoni was among the first to appreciate the true depths of his music. The Fantasia is based on two arias: Non più andrai, sung by Figaro to Cherubino as he despatches him off to join a regiment, adding that womenkind will be able to breathe freely once more; and Voi che sapete, in which Cherubino serenades the Countess and Susanna. The work begins almost nonchalantly, with a snippet of Non più andrai which is gradually transformed by Liszt in a substantial introduction full of melodramatic ardour, tremolos and eye-watering virtuosity. Voi che sapete then appears complete, in a more lyrical section characterized by a delicacy which gradually warms as the texture increases in complexity and brilliance. The virtuosity, however, is never allowed to obscure the crystalline beauty of Mozarts aria. Colours darken, tremolos and double octaves build up the tension in a transition passage culminating in a rising scale of double sixths and thirds which heralds the triumphant reappearance of Non più andrai, marked deciso and later marcatissimo, emphasizing the martial nature of Cherubinos fate. If Liszt was already unsparing in his demands on the pianist, Busoni adds to these with such instructions as con eleganza in textures thick with notes. Liszt continues to tease, with Figaros theme veering off in unexpected harmonic directions until he finally deconstructs it, leaving little more than a rhythmic torso, against motoric left-hand figuration. Busoni attempts no clever tricks in his ending, stylistically remaining utterly in keeping with Liszt. Harriet Smith © 2008 |

From the very beginning, John Varvatos infuses his namesake collection with a creative spirit and intrinsic edge so recognizably his own. In his own words, he designs the line for "a guy who appreciates beautiful fabrics and great details, without being too over-the-top." The signature Varvatos approach translates the best vintage looks and tailoring techniques into an original style that is always relevant and unmistakably modern.
"My philosophy is about reaching back to move forward," says John. "I have something different to say with a sensibility that is both old and new."
The designer credits his early obsession with rock music and the eclectic style of the artists as the catalyst for his interest in fashion. In a classic move, the first thing he does after leasing space for his Chelsea design studio is buy a killer audio system. Great music inspires his first collection and becomes a unifying theme in his design, seen to this day in every expression of the brand.

Apple has informed its iOS developers that it intends to reset iTunes Match beta accounts on Thursday October 27. Apple states that this is intended to improve "overall quality and reliability" of the service. Resetting iCloud data is nothing new as it has happened a few times during the iOS 5 and iCloud betas.
iTunes Match was announced as part of iCloud and is Apple's version of a music locker service. For $24.99 a year, iTunes Match will scan your desktop iTunes library, give you a 256-bit AAC version of every song it finds there that's included in the 20 million strong iTunes catalog, and let you upload any songs (at the original quality) that aren't.
It still appears that the service will be US only at launch due to licensing deals. Hopefully Apple is working hard to resolve these issues; then the reality of cutting the cord can be fully realized by everyone. Apple did say at the "Let's Talk iPhone" event that iTunes Match would be available at the end of this month; so it is expected right around now!
Source: AppleInsider
I need to get on this. Apple is taking of my little money!!
So, does this service somehow allow us to stream our entire library? if so, how? Data or Wi-Fi?
I may be mistaken but this isn't even a streaming service is it? It's just gives you the ability to re-download any of your songs to any iOS device? So you would have to have the space free on your iOS device as well as a data connection of some sort? I hope I am wrong as the streaming service would be much better and compete with Amazon and Google Music.
Then again if Amazon and Google would just release a native client for their music services I would be happy as a clam.
It's like streaming, they start to play as they download.
Once your music is in iCloud, you can stream and store it on any of your devices. Even better, all the music iTunes matches plays back from iCloud at 256-Kbps AAC DRM-free quality — even if your original copy was of lower quality.
So, I have conflicting info. Can we stream yes or no and is the service cost dependent on what you have "in the cloud" or wherever it goes?
i found this site where a guy beta tested it....pretty good info.
Does anyone know if the uploaded songs will go against my 5gb? I know the ones that match up won't, I'm just worried about all those ones that don't. I don't want to have to pay $25 and then pay extra for the space too. That space would add up quick.
I'm using the match beta and everyone says it is not a streaming service. IT IS! It just integrates like normal into the built in music player. Every song is clickable and will stream and download to your phone. I'm not sure what the cache is, but I've had some songs delete themselves. You can also click the cloud button and they will download for you. My only issue with the service, at least in its beta condition, is that it doesn't work with accessories that control the ipod for you. Like my car. the only songs that show up are the ones it has downloaded/cached. Not sure if they can fix this...also album art is super picky. But hopefully it will work beta upon release.
I think you guys missed something from the email that is vitally important, IMHO. You should turn off iTunes Match so your devices aren't affected.
"To continue to improve the overall quality and reliability of iTunes Match, we will be deleting all current iCloud libraries on Thursday, October 27th.
To prepare, please turn off iTunes Match on all of your computers and iOS devices. On your computer, choose Store > Turn off iTunes Match. On your iOS device, tap Settings > Music, then turn off iTunes Match.
The songs on your computer should not be affected. As always, please backup regularly and do not delete the music you add to iCloud from your computer."
You know, I paid my $24.99 being told I'd get an extra three months of service for free be being one of the testers and early adopters.
My account expires in September of 2012. Somehow, that 15 months started at the start of the beta. We weren't told that. So now, I have already paid for a service I still can't use daily yet because they keep deleting my shit, and my account expires less than a year from the release date...
I got fucked in this deal.
For the record, iTunes Match is the most awesome thing I've been able to do with my phone. Seriously. I have 2,403 albums in my collection and there will never be an iPod or iPhone with enough storage to catch me. With this, I have all 2,403 albums available all the time.
It really is awesome.
