- It was OKOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/30/2014Food was pretty good, ambience was just OK. Very loud, obnoxious waiter at table next to us was really disruptive to our meal. Mushroom side was the worst I've ever had. For this price point, service should be more attentive...clean crumbs off table, being water more frequently without asking, etc.Special Features:
- Wonderful experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/23/2014The food was great and the attention to detail and friendliness makes you feel very special.Special Features:
- Great experiencebjones15sarasotaDined on 8/23/2014This was truly a great experience for my daughter's 13th birthday. This is one of her favorite restaurants and she loves the selection of food. It was perfect for her and her best friend. Both girls enjoyed themselves immensely and loved the special attention she received.Special Features:
- TeriTeriDined on 8/21/2014Good food, super knowledgable waite staff and great over all service ...incredible wine listSpecial Features:
- Great MealblockflDined on 8/16/2014Pleasant dinner with some fabulous food - lobster bisque soup, tender filet and veal chop, tasty parmigiana asparagus. No room for dessert. Wait staff was friendly but a little slow. The crackers they serve with the bread are very good too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SarasotaDinerSarasotaDinerDined on 8/16/2014We enjoyed celebrating the first anniversary of my son and his beautiful wife at Michael's On East. The food was exceptional, the service was attentive, and the decor is lovely. It is a fine way to celebrate a special occasion. From appetizer to dessert, each course is a treat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always great.bowlerDined on 8/16/2014On all our trips to the Sun Coast, we enjoy Michael's on East for its food, ambience, and service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and serviceMartinDined on 8/15/2014We have been coming to Michael's on east for several years and have always enjoyed the experience.The food has been consistently excellent,the ambiance charming and the wait staff very professional and attentive.We chose the restaurant for our anniversary dinner on Friday and were glad we did.Special Features:
- ExcellentSazzy93Dined on 8/14/2014Really enjoyed the evening. Fabulous steak, lovely wine. Great evening.Special Features:
- Better for Bar Crowd?TastefulDined on 8/13/2014We were two older women. Two different individuals at front desk pointedly ignored us to serve younger and male accompanied guests. When we did get attention, their smiles were conspicuously gone. Steak and wine both excellent but creamed spinach and and sauteed mushroom sides not even palatable. Table server gracious and competent. Comfortable chairs and lovely table service but bar music made the room too noisy for normal conversation. Expensive and will not go again.Special Features:
- My Favorite GemlululucciDined on 8/13/2014Every experience I have had at Michael's has been A-One. Maggie certainly is a wonderful part of a very friendly and warm experience. My husband and I especially enjoy the Epicurean experiences. Food is wonderful, as well as, the service and ambiance. Our server on August 13 for lunch was wonderful serving my girlfriends for a birthday celebration. I am sorry that I cannot remember her name. She deserves recognition as she has taken good care of us many times in the past.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- donnaVIPDined on 8/9/2014Our service started out very poor but picked up as the evening went on. It seemed to take forever between courses and we ended up being the last table in the dining room. As expensive as this restaurant is you would think $6 for a baked potatoe would yield something bigger than my fist and hope that it was still hot when you received it. I was very disappointed actually because it is a place my son and his daughters were begging to go back to on their visit to see us and it is not in close proximity to where we live. I doubt that I would go back there again. With a $500 check for 5 people 2 of which are 10 & 15 you would expect exceptional service and outstanding food.Special Features:
- Great for special night out!Ijustwant2travelDined on 8/9/2014We had not been to Michael's on East for some time and thoroughly enjoyed the evening from the piano bar to the food and ambiance. The dinner was excellent and plentiful and the creme brûlée was outstanding. We dined early and perhaps it was quiet as it was just starting to fill up but even when most of the tables were filled it was still just soft sounds. We are not fond of high end restaurants sounding like a party scene.Special Features:
- Never disappointsOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/8/2014We arrived early and enjoyed happy hour at the bar. When seated, the waiter introduced himself and said he understood that my special request was to have a buttery chardonnay. He had already selected one that he and his wife liked. It was perfect. We had the twin Maine lobsters and they were delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent, as alwaysSrossDined on 8/5/2014The food and the service can't be beat at Michael's on East! We have never been disappointed, and we are always impressed with our meal and the wait staff.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Special occasion spotOldGoatDined on 8/4/2014special night, outstanding food, excellent service - what more could you want?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not a memorable night!LuvwineDined on 8/2/2014We had reserv. for 5:45pm, restaurant was pretty empty when we arrived. We were seated at a small table for two even though there were plenty of empty tables that were larger available. During the next hour several couples, probably 6, came in and were seated at tables for four even though there were smaller tables available. The table was so crowded it was scary just trying to pick up and put down your wine glass. Another issue was the low chairs at all the tables, I felt like I was in a child's chair and I'm only 5'11". Noise level by the time we left was unbearable. Our bill was $309 without the tip! Expected a better experience for that kind of $$$.
- Always a treatTwoDinersDined on 8/1/2014I don't know why we don't come here more often; it's always such an enjoyable experience. Michael certainly knows how to operate a restaurant!Special Features:
- Expensive-BUT--Very Good!!!EthicsGuyDined on 7/26/2014You will not be disappointed having dinner at Michael's on East. The food and service were excellent. We had our 45th Wedding anniversary dinner there and they treated us in a very special way.Special Features:
- Enjoyable eveningJerryDined on 7/26/2014Everything was terrific, starting with the tomato bisque soup. The extensive wine list was on an I- pad which gave us a lot of information to choose from. (We chose a cab/merlot blend from South Africa). The seafood entrée were cooked to perfection. The server was knowledgeable while being attentive. The dessert was outstanding-chocolate of course.Special Features:
- Service beyondCindyDined on 7/24/2014From the hostess to the waiter, the service is outstanding. Add the beautifully presented meal as delicious as it looks, and you have the absolute best luncheon!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DineoutallotDined on 7/23/2014Very impressed with service food and attention to detail. Exceptional and imaginative menu. Worth every $$$$.Special Features:
- new GM and servercavcandoDined on 7/22/2014Our server Kim and new G M (sorry his name escapes me right now but he did indeed introduce himself to us and took great care of us) are both steller. We will not dine there unless Kim is working. She is so informative as to wines and food.....if they have a reward system I would say she is a five star!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The noise factorOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 7/19/2014Eating at Michael's was a challenge! It is not a location to enjoy conversation with friends. The noise level is way too high. The singer at the piano was trying too hard to be a Las Vegas act. it's unfortunate because the food was very good.
- Five Star Excellence!NannyVIPDined on 7/19/2014We had a special dinner for six and it was truly spectacular. Everyone had a delicious meal and our table was very comfortable. The piano playing in the background is perfect! Don't ever change because you have a great thing!Special Features:
- Great Food, Wine and ServiceGandDDined on 7/18/2014Is there anymore to like? 2nd visit this trip to the Sarasota area and already planning our 3rd after the kids/ grandkids leave. The food was superb accompanied by some great wines. The service and care shown by all the staff is to be complimented. Thank you all.....Special Features:
- Michaels on East Never Disappoints!Mac4104VIPDined on 7/17/2014We enjoyed our Anniversary celebration at Michael's and tried the Epicurean Adventure with the wine parings! Presentation of each dish was outstanding and service was attentive by Joe! We love Michael's on East!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best steaks anywhereJDJDDined on 7/17/2014Michael's has by far the best steaks i have ever enjoyed ANYWHERE! Wonderful place to enjoy a top shelf meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Epicurian on EastBUTCHDined on 7/16/2014Starting out with no-charge, valet parking and a friendly "hello" at the MaitreD's desk sets the right tone for dinner. I always start with the wine list and then build my meal around it. There, on the 3rd page was my most favorite white wine. Unfortunately there were only 2 bottles and by the time mine was located, the other bottle was history also. Mussels as a split appetizer.....lots of garlic in a lobster butter sauce......can't wait to do that again with NO sharing, A chopped salad that was very ordinary....will not order that again Entrée was 2 large pieces of Pompano. Lightly breaded and cooked rapidly over high heat in butter....makes me hungry to remember. The chocolate brownie was sinful....ask for "extra drizzle"Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- some good, some not so goodLiberaVIPDined on 7/12/2014Michael's does have a lovely supper club atmosphere, but it can get noisy near the bar. We were seated in the separate dining area; very nice. Apps of oysters (good) and carpaccio (rolled w/parmesan; not our favorite. couldn't taste the meat over the cheese). My partner's entree of snapper, the fish of the day, was absolutely delicious, but my pesto rigatoni was a bit too al dente and the sauce was mushy and not very flavorful. Our wait person, when I asked about the properties of a wine, said 'it's good!' Oh, no. Not the response I expected in a place with such an extensive and interesting wine list. All in all, a good meal; not great.Special Features:
- Celebrating our AnniversaryOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/12/2014We were celebrating our Wedding Anniversary; everyone was most pleasant and cheerful; we were greeted by numerous staff (and manager) congratulating us and wishing us well. Our table was in a private corner; the food was excellent and a complementary dessert was given to us to celebrate the occasion. We definitely will be back and will also recommend to our friends and family. We also enjoyed listening to the live piano music as we dined. Thank you to ALL of your staff for a lovely time as we celebrated our Anniversary.Special Features:
- Excellent!CTGALVIPDined on 7/12/2014New to Sarasota, we tried this restaurant during Savor Sarasota week, which was a discounted three-course meal. There was nothing discounted about the experience. Food, portions, presentation, service were all top notch. We definitely would return to try their regular menu. But, for the thrifty, Michael's on East offers what they call a epicurean adventure or something like that. A three-course menu for about $35 that changes monthly. We went back to try the New Orleans menu and were very pleased. You even get a wine pairing for a very reasonable cost. A quality place.Special Features:
- Elegantly ExpensivePeteDined on 7/12/2014My friend and I ordered one drink, split a salad and each had an entree. My share was over $70 with tip. That seems a lot for a drink and some scallops. However, the atmosphere is nice and we enjoyed the music so I would return but only if I'm with someone who has an expense account.Special Features:
- Great foodTravelerDined on 7/11/2014Michael's On East always has a great menu, service and the food is just superb. Whether you go on the Lobster pot night or any other time you are treated as a welcome guest with service beyond many high priced New York restaurants.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- love italbert05Dined on 7/11/2014I loved the food. Yes it was a bit pricey but it was for my anniversary with my girlfriend so it was totally worth it. The service was outstanding. I am a server and honestly I would love to work at Micheal's on East. Wish they were hiring. But thank youSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lobster Pot FridayOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/11/2014Looked forward to this for sometime, but was disappointed. The lobster meat did not pull away from the shell like it should. I think the lobsters were left over from the previous Friday. The mussels and clams were dry. Server and service was great. Don't remember assist waiters from previous visit, but the were very accomplished and helped to keep thing moving. The piano has been toned-down, but it is still a very noises restaurant.Special Features:
- Best of sarasotaBlovenDined on 7/5/2014Michaels is always the best- wonderful food preparation made the finest of ingredients, beautifully presented. The ambiance is wonderful. Truly the finest dining in sarasotaSpecial Features:
- Best restaurant in townmyfavoriteVIPDined on 7/5/2014We celebrated our anniversary here for the second year in a row with another couple again. Not only was each course prepared impeccably and the presentations exceptional, but the service and the acknowledgment of the occasion by Michael and his staff was unsurpassed. One surprise after another- you would have thought we ate here every day!!! I would highly recommend Michael's to anyone desiring an evening a cut above all the rest in a town with many other terrific restaurants.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovely placeFoodisFabDined on 7/5/2014The service at Michael's is legendary and the food is quite good as well although not at the level of the service. we will certainly return as it is always enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Salmon & LobsterNannyVIPDined on 7/4/2014Delicious and very relaxing, great server! The salmon was superb! Thank you.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Sunday night, news broke that Oregon Ducks coach Chip Kelly was steps away from taking the Tampa Bay Buccaneers job. What started as farfetched became more and more believable as confirmations came in from both coasts, with late-night reports having Kelly just about to sign. Then, at the last moment, he reportedly changed his mind.
Days away from college football's national signing day, when high school players can officially begin signing up to play for college teams, Kelly's got some clarifying to do on just how committed he is to Oregon for the near future. Unless he can convince the public he's no longer interested in a NFL job (despite multiple reports that he's had it with all the non-football responsibilities entailed in working a college job), he'll have one issue to overcome in future recruiting (not to mention this year's recruiting).
Here's Kelly:
I am flattered by the interest of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' organization. I enjoyed meeting with the Glazer family and General Manager Mark Dominik but after numerous discussions, I concluded that I have some unfinished business to complete at the University of Oregon.
Also, athletic director Rob Mullens issued a comment:
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers asked for permission to engage in conversation with Coach Kelly, which was granted. The University of Oregon is one of the nation's preeminent college football programs and, as such, it comes as no surprise the NFL is interested in our personnel. We are pleased with Coach Kelly's decision to remain as our head coach. Coach Kelly has provided great leadership and remains committed to building on our position among the elite college football programs in the country.
Check out SB Nation's Bucs Nation for more on the Bucs and visit Addicted To Quack for an Oregon perspective on all of this.

For the 2nd straight week and for the 4th time this season Johnson C. Smith forward Emilio Parks has been named the CIAA Newcomer of the Week.
Parks won the award last week and back on December 22nd and January 12th.
The Golden Bulls only played once last week but what a game it was for the sophomore. He came up with a career high 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 2 steals.
The conference leader in field goal percentage shot 11 for 15 from the field (73%).
The Golden Bulls would go on for the 82-73 win over Fayetteville State.
JCSU plays only once this week as well, but it is a huge game as they host the Southern Division leading St. Augustine's Falcons. A win by the Golden Bulls would put them in a tie for first in the division.

The easiest way to expand your vocabulary in Spanish is to find other uses for those Spanish words you already know. That's done in Spanish the same way it is in English — by using prefixes, suffixes, and compound words.
You can learn about suffixes (word endings) and compound words (words that are made up of two or more words) in other lessons. For now we'll concern ourselves with prefixes, those (usually) short additions we put on the beginning of words.
Learning Spanish prefixes is particularly easy for those of us who speak English, because nearly all the common prefixes are the same in both languages. We get most of our prefixes from Greek and Latin, and those were carried over into Spanish as well.
There aren't any real secrets to learning prefixes. Just remember that if you think you know what a prefix means you're probably right. Here are some of the most common ones, along with examples:
- ante- (before): antemano (beforehand), anteayer (day before yesterday), antebrazo (forearm), anteponer (to put something before something else)
- anti- (against): anticuerpo (antibody), antimateria (antimatter), anticoncepción (contraception)
- auto- (self): autodisciplina (self-discipline), autogestión (self-management), automóvil (automobile)
- bi-, bis-, biz- (two): bicicleta (bicycle), bilingüe (bilingual), bisemenal (twice a week)
- cent- (hundred): centímetro (centimeter), centenar (group of 100)
- contra- (against): contraataque (counterattack), contrapeso (counterweight), ir contrareloj (to work against the clock)
- con- (with): convivir (to live together), conjuntar (to coordinate), complot (conspiracy)
- des- (undo, diminish): desplegar (to unfold), desdecirse (to go back on one's word), descubrir (to discover or uncover)
- entre-, (between, among): entremeter (to place among), entrecruzar (to interweave), entreabierto (half-open)
- ex- (former, outside): excombatiente (military veteran), exportar (to export), exprimiar (to squeeze or squeeze out)
- homo- (same): homónimo (homonym), homólogo (equivalent), homogeneizar (to homogenize)
- im-, in- (opposite): incapaz (incapable), inaudible (inaudible), inconformista (nonconformist)
- inter- (between, among): interacción (interaction), interrumpir (to interrupt), interponer (to interpose)
- mal- (bad): maltratar (to abuse or mistreat), malpensado (malicious), malvivir (to live badly)
- mono- (one): monótono (monotonous), monopolio (monopoly), monocarril (monorail)
- para- (together, with, for): paramédico (paramedic), paraguas (umbrella), parachoques (vehicle bumper)
- poli- (many): poligloto (multilingual person), politeísta (polytheistic), poligamia (polygamy)
- pre- (before): prefijo (prefix), predestinación (predestination), prehistoria (prehistory)
- pro- (in favor of): proponer (to propose), pronombre (pronoun), prometer (to promise)
- re- (again, with intensity): repaso (review), renacer (to be reborn), renegar (to strongly deny)
- semi- (medium, half): semidifunto (half-dead), semifinalista (semifinalist), semicírculo (semicircle)
- seudo- (false): seudónimo (pseudonym), seudociencia (pseudoscience)
- sobre- (excessive, extraordinary): sobrevivir (to survive), sobredosis (overdose), sobrecargar (to overload)
- sub- (under): subsuelo (subsoil), subyacer (to underlie), subsector (subsection)
- super- (superior): supermercado (supermarket), superhombre (superman), supercarburante (high-grade fuel)
- tele- (at a distance): teléfono (telephone), telecontrol (remote control), telescopio (telescope)
- uni- (one): unificación (unification), unilateral (one-sided), unisexo (unisex)
There are many other prefixes that are less common. Many of the words listed above have additional meanings.
A few of the suffixes — such as seudo-, super- and mal- — can be freely applied to coin words. For example, someone who doesn't study much might be called a seudoestudiante.

John Velazquez after winning his milestone 694th race at Saratoga Race Course on July 27. (Photo courtesy NYRA)
Jockey John Velazquez, inducted into the Racing Hall of Fame last summer in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., became the winningest jockey in the history of Saratoga Race Course when he guided Unitarian to a victory in the fourth race on July 27.
Velazquez moved into a tie with Hall of Famer Jerry Bailey when he won three races at Saratoga on June 25 and eclipsed Bailey's mark two days later when he posted his 694thcareer win at the Spa. Angel Cordero Jr., Velazquez's mentor and agent, ranks in third place with 649 career wins at Saratoga.
"It's a big number, I have to say that," Velazquez said. "Just to be named after Jerry Bailey or Angel Cordero, who probably, in my eyes, obviously I'm a little biased when it comes to Angel, they are two of the best riders I've ever seen in my career. I'm humbled, and I'm happy."
Velazquez has won 29 Grade 1 races at Saratoga since he rode his first race there in 1990 and his Saratoga mounts have amassed more than $45.3 million in earnings.
Velazquez won the Travers Stakes in 2005 aboard Flower Alley and has three victories in both the Whitney Handicap (Commentator, 2008; Lawyer Ron, 2007; and Left Bank, 2002) and the Woodward Stakes (To Honor and Serve, 2012; Quality Road, 2010; and Lawyer Ron, 2007).
Velazquez earned his first career stakes win at Saratoga in 1992 when he won the Daryl's Joy Stakes aboard Now Listen and secured his first Saratoga Grade 1 win in 1996 when he guided Capote Belle to victory in the Test Stakes.
Currently ranked 28th all time by career wins with 5,023, Velazquez won the Kentucky Derby in 2011 on Animal Kingdom and is a two-time winner of the Belmont Stakes.
Unitarian prevailed in the 1 3/16-mile turf race by closing from off the pace for a half-length win. The Pulpit colt is trained by Todd Pletcher, who presented Velazquez at the 2012 Hall of Fame induction ceremony and uses Velazquez as his first-call rider.
"I definitely want to say thank you to [trainer] Todd [Pletcher]. I've been riding for him since 1998 and we're still going," Velazquez said. "I want to thank my family without whose support I wouldn't be able to do this. And I have to thank the fans. The fans have been great to me."

Gold Prices Pop on Weak GDP Report
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Gold prices were popping Wednesday after a surprising contraction in U.S. gross domestic product pushed investors back into the safe-haven asset. Gold prices gained 0.48% on Tuesday.
Gold for April delivery was jumping $19.70 to $1,682.40 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The gold price traded as high as $1,684 and as low as $1,663.50, while the spot price was adding $17.70, according to Kitco's gold index.
"I did not expect a negative number but ... gold is still kind of within its trading range," said Oliver Pursche, co-portfolio manager at GMG Defensive Beta Fund.
The Bureau of Economic Analysis reported Tuesday that fourth-quarter gross domestic product in 2012 contracted 0.1%, compared against third-quarter growth of 3.1%. The preliminary reading could later be upwardly revised, but the first print weakened confidence enough to sink major U.S. equity markets early on Wednesday.Consensus among economists polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting GDP to rise 1.1%. Silver prices for March delivery were increasing 82 cents to $32.01, while the U.S. dollar index was sinking 0.38% to $79.27. Comex gold trades will settle at 1:30 p.m. EST, but the Federal Reserve will make a policy-making meeting announcement at 2:15 p.m. Gold prices plummeted 1.5% on Jan. 4 when the Fed announced a split in sentiment among members of the Federal Open Market Committee as to how much longer the central bank should continue its monetary stimulus programs. Multiple members said they wanted to end quantitative easing by the end of 2013 or well before the end of the year. Others reiterated their commitment to considerable accommodative policy. The fear among gold traders is that if the Fed ends its open-ended mortgage-backed securities and longer-term Treasuries purchases, then inflationary pressures would subside and damper the yellow metal's appeal. "I do think that where a month ago ... there were some discussions about [quantitative easing] ending sooner rather than later and the economy picking up and thereby inflation picking up, you're kind of saying, 'Well, gee, that may not be quite so true as we felt two or three weeks ago," Pursche said.

A former Shawnee mayor is in the hospital recovering after he fell and couldn't escape the cold.
A Kansas City Star newspaper carrier found 77-year-old Tony Soetaert, just in time before frostbite settled in.
Soetaert can barely move his blistered fingers. When paramedics brought him into Shawnee Mission Medical Center, his body temperature was only 92 degrees.
"It's hard to move them. They feel frozen," Soetaert said.
Soetaert slipped and fell while trying to push out his trash Monday morning at his home near West 59th and Garnett streets.
"He's doing a lot better. He is warming up. I don't think there will be any long-term affects," Soetaert's son Tom Soetaert said.
When Tony Soetaert fell there was no one around. He crawled into his garage.
"I honked the horn, and I thought for sure that somebody would have heard it, but they didn't," Tony Soetaert said.
Then he began to scream, but at 4 a.m., no one was awake. No one, except Jeff Stockwell.
"I was through here about 4 a.m. and happened to hear someone cry out for help, and at first it didn't register. I thought maybe it was a cat or something making some noise," Stockwell said.
Stockwell said he almost kept going but decided to turn around.
"So I stopped. I heard him some more crying out, and as I approached the house, I saw him down on the ground," Stockwell said.
And just in time. His family says he may have been outside for about 45 minutes.
"Bare skin exposed, you can have injuries in about 15 minutes," said Dr. Kevin Koch with Shawnee Mission Medical Center.
Doctors say it is similar to getting a third-degree burn but the extreme opposite. Doctors say numbness in the fingers is one of the first signs.
"The first thing is a little bit of numbness, coldness if you don't get inside, skins starts turning white red, blisters that are fluid filled," Koch said.
Tony Soetaert and his family are thankful that the mail carrier was there to save him.
"I'm glad he did, I don't know whether or not I would have made it if he had he not been there to wait on me," Tony Soetaert said.

Nats bullpen looking to stay focused
Five relievers combined to shut out Rangers in Friday's win
WASHINGTON -- The Nationals bullpen came up in a big way Friday night in a 14-inning win over the Texas Rangers. Five relievers combined to shut out Texas over the last eight innings of the game, allowing just one hit over that span.
That strong performance came at the right time, according to manager Manny Acta. Washington's bullpen got roughed up in the Nationals' three-game series against Minnesota, giving up 10 runs in the last two games.
"Most of those guys, they've done it well in the past, and I don't think their confidence is shot," Acta said. "But, just coming back from that series in Minnesota, it was good for them."
Acta said a couple of the pitchers would get at least Saturday off to rest after throwing long innings Friday night. The Nationals' two most worked pitchers were Saul Rivera, who worked three innings, and Joel Hanrahan, who threw two innings and picked up the win. Acta did confirm Friday night that Rivera would get at least one day off.
Luis Ayala, who threw a perfect eighth Friday, said Saturday that the bullpen felt good about its overall performance Friday night. However, Ayala said the key for the bullpen staff moving forward is not to get caught up in one game -- good or bad. He said everyone will stay focused on their next game.
Ayala said all the pitchers in the bullpen have faith and confidence not just in their own abilities, but those of their teammates as well.
"Everybody can make outs, everybody can do the job in any situation," he said.
Ayala said none of the pitchers will dwell too much on Friday night's game, but they will all take a measure of confidence away from their overall performance.
"It's a great thing, because we have more confidence now," Ayala said. "Texas has very good hitters, and we pitched great, so we have the confidence, and we're trying to do the same thing tonight."

Tessanne rocks SumfestSaturday, July 21, 2012
Reggae singer Tessanne Chin had the thousands present at the 20th staging of Reggae Sumfest held at Catherine Hall in Montego Bay in a musical trance throughout her performance earlier tonight.
The Jamaican songbird had the audience's undivided attention as she sang the lyrics to songs like "The Reason", a cover version of the 2003 hit.
"Sumfest are you ready to rock and party tonight as we celebrate a huge milestone in our country's history? There are special things in our past that can propel us to move forward so it's good to visit the past at times" she said before taking the Reggae Sumfest crowd down memory lane.
She had almost everyone dancing to the ska and rocksteady beat as she sang the words to the rocksteady song "Hanging On To Strings".
She also performed other songs like Messenger and Hideaway.
In addition to international act Trey Songz, the music festival will see performances from some of reggae's veterans including Derrick Harriot, Uroy, John Holt and The Mighty Diamonds

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Dominick Argento (born October 27, 1927, York, Pennsylvania) is an American composer, best known for his lyric operatic and choral music. Among his best known pieces are the operas Postcard from Morocco, Miss Havisham's Fire, and The Masque of Angels, The Aspern Papers (opera), as well as the song cycles Six Elizabethan Songs and From the Diary of Virginia Woolf; the latter earned him the Pulitzer Prize for Music in 1975. In a predominantly tonal context, his music freely combines tonality, atonality and a lyrical use of twelve-tone writing, though none of Argento's music approaches the experimental avant garde fashions of the post World War II era. He is particularly well known for sensitive settings of complex, sophisticated texts.[1]
As a student in the 1950s, Argento divided his time between America and Italy, and his music is greatly influenced both by his instructors in the United States and his personal affection for Italy, particularly the city of Florence. Many of Argento's works were written in Florence, where he spends a portion of every year.[2] He has been a professor (and, more recently, a professor emeritus) at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and he frequently remarks that he finds that city to be tremendously supportive of his work and that he thinks his musical development would have been impeded had he stayed in the high-pressure world of East Coast music.[2][3] He was one of the founders of the Center Opera Company (now the Minnesota Opera), and indeed Newsweek once referred to the Twin Cities as "Argento's town."[3]
Argento has written fourteen operas as well as major song cycles, orchestral works, and many choral pieces for small and large forces, many of which were commissioned for and premiered by Minnesota-based artists. He has referred to his wife, the soprano Carolyn Bailey, as his muse, and she was a frequent performer of his works. She died on February 2, 2006.
Argento, the son of Sicilian immigrants, grew up in York, Pennsylvania. Although he would go on to become an acclaimed composer, he found his music classes in elementary school to be "fifty minute sessions of excruciating boredom."[3] Upon graduating from high school, he was drafted into the Army and spent some time as a cryptographer; he then began studying piano performance at the Peabody Conservatory on the G.I. Bill.[1] He quickly decided to switch to composition.
He earned bachelor's (1951) and master's (1953) degrees from Peabody, where his teachers included Nicholas Nabokov, Henry Cowell, and Hugo Weisgall. While there, he was briefly the music director of Weisgall's Hilltop Musical Company, which Weisgall founded as a sort of answer to Benjamin Britten's festival at Aldeburgh—a venue for local composers (particularly Weisgall himself) to present new work. This experience gave Argento broad exposure to and experience in the world of new opera.[1] Hilltop's stage director was writer John Olon-Scrymgeour, with whom Argento would later collaborate on many operas. During this time period he also spent a year in Florence on a Fulbright Fellowship, and has called the experience "life-altering;" while there, he studied briefly with Luigi Dallapiccola. Argento went on to receive his Ph.D. from the Eastman School of Music, where he studied with Alan Hovhaness, Bernard Rogers and Howard Hanson.[4] Following completion of this degree, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship and spent another year in Florence, thus inaugurating a tradition of spending long periods of time in that city.
Argento moved to Minneapolis in 1958 with his new wife Carolyn to begin teaching theory and composition at the University of Minnesota. Within a few years he received commissions from virtually every major performing group there. He has remarked that this constant feeling of strong community interest in his work made him feel particularly at home in Minnesota, despite the fact that he resisted moving there at first and hoped for several years that a position on the East Coast would beckon.[3] Argento became involved in writing music for productions at the then-new Guthrie Theatre, and in 1963, he and Scrymgeour founded the Center Opera Company, which later became the Minnesota Opera, to be in residence there. Argento composed the short opera The Masque of Angels for the occasion as the first Performing Arts commission of the Walker Art Center, and the work—with its complex harmonic language and an emphasis on expansive choral writing that prefigures his later role as a prominent choral composer—firmly established his local prominence, as well as providing a role for his wife. He also spent time at his childhood friend's cabin, Russell Burris, and his family.
By 1971, when his daring surreal opera Postcard from Morocco opened at Center Opera, his national reputation was secure, in part thanks to a glowing review by the principal music critic of the New York Times.[3] He eventually received commissions from New York City Opera, the newly formed Minnesota Opera, Washington Opera, and the Baltimore and St. Louis Symphonies, among others. He also developed close professional relationships with several prominent singers, notably Frederica von Stade, Janet Baker, and Håkan Hagegård, and some of his best-known song cycles were tailored to their talents.
In the mid-1970s, he began writing choral works for the choir of Plymouth Church in Minneapolis, which his friend, Philip Brunelle, directed.[3] The partnership with Brunelle was particularly fruitful with commissions and premieres taking place at Plymouth Church and at the Minnesota Opera where Brunelle was Music Director. It is from this period, that Argento composed Jonah and the Whale (1973) co-commissioned by Plymouth Congregational Church and the Cathedral of St. Mark-Episcopal. From this beginning, Argento began to receive larger and larger commissions for choral works, eventually penning major pieces for the Dale Warland Singers, The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and Buffalo Schola Cantorum, and most recently the Harvard and Yale Glee Clubs.
In addition to his Pulitzer Prize, the recording by Frederica von Stade and the Minnesota Orchestra of his song cycle Casa Guidi won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Classical Composition. Argento's book Catalogue Raisonné as Memoir, an autobiographical discussion of his works, was published in 2004.
Argento is now retired from teaching but he retains the title of Professor Emeritus at the University of Minnesota. He still lives in Minneapolis, and his musical output has remained steady. The world premiere of his latest piece, Evensong: Of Love and Angels, was presented by the Cathedral Choral Society in March 2008 at Washington National Cathedral. The work was written in memory of his late wife and in honor of Washington National Cathedral's centennial.
Argento's operatic output is eclectic and extensive. Two of his early operas, written while he was a student—Sicilian Limes and Colonel Jonathan the Saint—have been withdrawn by the composer, but one work, The Boor, written in 1957 as part of his PhD work, was published by Boosey & Hawkes. He then collaborated with John Olon-Scrymgeour on a number of works, including The Masque of Angels; Christopher Sly (1962), based on an episode from The Taming of the Shrew; and The Shoemaker's Holiday, (1967) a "ballad opera" based on a play by Thomas Dekker.
After Postcard from Morocco in 1971, which had a libretto by Jon Donahue, the commissions afforded him were much larger. The University of Minnesota and Minnesota Opera together commissioned The Voyage of Edgar Allan Poe in 1975-76, with a libretto by Charles Nolte. As a result of that work, which received wildly enthusiastic reviews upon its premiere,[3] the New York City Opera commissioned him and received Miss Havisham's Fire (1977), with a libretto by Scrymgeour. Although not well received initially, Argento eventually revised it into a one-act form entitled Miss Havisham's Wedding Night (1981). Miss Havisham's Fire was itself revised in 1995.
In 1984, the Minnesota Opera commissioned Casanova's Homecoming, with text by the composer; it went on to a well-received run at New York City Opera, where at the insistence of Beverly Sills it became the first opera performed in New York in English to have English supertitles, to ensure the audience would understand all the jokes.[3] The opera won the 1986 National Institute for Music Theatre Award. He then wrote The Aspern Papers (opera) (1987), to his own libretto adapted from the story by Henry James, as a vehicle for Frederica von Stade. His next opera, and arguably largest work to date, was The Dream of Valentino, which premiered at the Kennedy Center in 1993. Critic Anne Midgette of the New York Times has noted that Argento's operas tend to be very well received upon their premieres, but they lack an "easy popular hook" and are rarely revived.[5]
Argento's song cycles are notable in his frequent use of dramatic, unusual text, most often prose that does not have immediately apparent musical possibilities; they blur the distinction between straightforward groupings of songs and dramatic works, which he terms "monodramas". His best-known song cycle is From the Diary of Virginia Woolf, with a text he assembled from the book of the title. Written for Janet Baker in 1974, it won the Pulitzer Prize and is performed frequently. Other prominent works in a similar vein include Letters from Composers (1968), which uses as its text letters written by Chopin, Puccini, and others; Casa Guidi (1983), which sets letters written by Elizabeth Barrett Browning; and A Few Words About Chekhov (1996), which adapts letters by Chekhov.
Argento's other song cycles include A Water Bird Talk, which combines Chekov's one-act monodrama "On the Harmful Effects of Tobacco" with passages from Audubon's Birds of America; The Andrée Expedition, which includes journal entries by Salomon Andrée during his ill-fated attempt to travel to the North Pole by balloon; and Miss Manners on Music (1998), which sets newspaper clippings by columnist Judith Martin (aka "Miss Manners"). One of the few major song sets Argento has written that use "traditional" verse as text is his popular Six Elizabethan Songs.
Other solo vocal works by Argento include:
Argento's first large-scale choral work, if one discounts The Masque of Angels (parts of which, such as the "Gloria" and "Sanctus", are frequently excerpted), is The Revelation of St. John the Divine (1968), which sets portions of the Book of Revelation and is scored for male chorus, brass, and an array of percussion instruments. Peter Quince at the Clavier, a setting of the poem by Wallace Stevens, was commissioned by Pennsylvania State University in honor of the state's tercentenary (both Stevens and Argento are Pennsylvania natives.) For the Dale Warland Singers, Argento wrote I Hate and I Love (1981), with text by Catullus, and Walden Pond (1996), based on excerpts from Thoreau. Argento composed a massive Te Deum in 1987 which integrates the Latin text with medieval English folk poetry. A Toccata of Galuppi's (1989), a 20-minute setting of a Robert Browning poem, is one of many works inspired by Argento's time in Florence. In 2008, the Harvard Glee Club premiered Apollo in Cambridge, a multi-movement setting of texts by Harvard-affiliated writers of the 19th century.
Other choral works by Argento include:
Argento's non-vocal output is relatively small; there are, for example, no symphonies, and just one String Quartet written when he was a student. He has produced numerous orchestral suites based on his operas, including Le tombeau d'Edgar Poe (1985), adapted from The Voyage of Edgar Allan Poe, and the popular Valentino Dances (1994), from The Dream of Valentino. He has written two ballets that were then fashioned into orchestral suites, The Resurrection of Don Juan (1956) and Royal Invitation (Homage to the Queen of Tonga) (1964). His 1982 Fire Variations was nominated for the Kennedy Center Fridheim Prize in Music.

It's called a complete metamorphosis--from an egg to a larva to a pupa to an adult.
Metamorphosis--Greek for "transformation" or "change in shape" is spectacular.
And it's particularly spectacular when the subject is the Anise Swallowtail (Papilio zelicaon).
Adult butterflies recently laid their eggs on anise (Pimpinella anisum), also known as fennel, in a friend's backyard in Fairfield. The eggs transformed into larvae (caterpillars) with coloring reminiscent of the adults.
We didn't see the first stage, the eggs, but did see the second stage, caterpillar and remnants of the third stage, an empty chrysalis.
