Sofia Gubaidulina: A Biography.
Indiana University Press's Russian Music Studies series, founded by Malcolm H. Brown, continues to do an important and unique service in America by publishing translations of significant texts on Russian music, both new and old (the only contemporary equivalent is Ernst Kuhn's series Studia Slavica musicologica in Germany). The English translation of Michael Kurtz's "authorized" biography of Sofia Gubaidulina, originally published in German in 2001, is one of the most recent of these (Michael Kurtz, Sofia Gubaidulina: Eine Biografie [Stuttgart: Urachhaus, 2001]). This version of Kurtz's biography provides a useful, readable introduction to Gubaidulina's life, especially for those without knowledge of either Russian or German, and helps establish a good basis for future study of the composer. However, though an important--even indispensable--document for those wishing to learn more about Gubaidulina's life, times, and music, Kurtz's biography is not without its own limitations, chief among them its lack of critical engagement with many of the topics he raises and his insufficient scholarly apparatus. Furthermore, Kurtz does not treat Gubaidulina's music in any detail, providing only capsule descriptions for most pieces (there are no music examples in the book save for a page from Viuente non viuente).
The virtues and problems of Kurtz's biography both stem from the fact that, as he notes in the introduction, Gubaidulina "authorized this biography and read the entire manuscript" (p. xviii). Not surprisingly, throughout there is an absence of objective perspective on Gubaidulina. As Nigel Osborne remarked of Kurtz's earlier, generally well-received biography of Karlheinz Stockhausen, "It is less a critical biography, than a partisan appraisal" (Nigel Osborne, review of Michael Kurtz, Stockhausen: Eine Biographie [Kassel: Barenreiter, 1988], Tempo no. 171 [December 1989]: 38; the book was later published in English as Stockhausen: a biography, trans. Richard Toop [London: Faber, 1992]). That being said, Gubaidulina was Kurtz's primary source for the book, and her imprimatur doubtless proved crucial for facilitating the countless interviews Kurtz conducted with her family, friends, colleagues, and acquaintances that form his most important layer of evidence. Kurtz tirelessly tracked down seemingly every major figure (and many minor ones as well) associated with the composer, both in Russia and other republics from the former Soviet Union as well as in Europe, the United States, and Japan (as someone who has done his own share of interviewing in the former USSR, I can imagine how difficult this was logistically, financially, and intellectually). The results are invaluable for the light they shed on Gubaidulina's personality, creative process, and the compositional history and reception of specific works. Particularly illuminating are those reminiscences that reveal Gubaidulina's personal and creative "determination, ... strength, and ... calmness" in poet Gennadiy Aygi's words (p. 100; see also Mark Lindo's remarks on p. 30, Valentina Kholopova's on p. 46, and Kalevi Aho's on pp. 181-82). Interesting too are details about Gubaidulina's brushes with the KGB because of her second husband Kolya (Nikolai) Bokov's samizdat activities (pp. 107-09, 62-63, 68, and 88), and her self-proclaimed "Party loyalist" father's poignant rejection of her music after Tikhon Khrennikov denounced it in 1979 (pp. 145-46).
Most of Kurtz's interviews are cited properly (with date and interview location), yet only once in his entire endnotes (p. 296, chapter 2, note 10) does he directly refer to one of his "many conversations" with Gubaidulina that reportedly took place between 1990 and the present translation, although in this specific case no date is given (Kurtz discusses his interviews with Gubaidulina for the book on p. xvi). Moreover, at least twice the indication "As quoted by Sofia Gubaidulina" is provided in the endnotes without any date or other identifying marks (see note 7, p. 306, and note 10, p. 307). (Similarly Pyotr Mesh-chaninov's and Victor Suslin's interviews with Kurtz are undated.) Suggestive of the intertwining of Kurtz and Gubaidulina, his virtual co-author, is a typographical error on page 21 where the second half of the indented, block quotation beginning "It's now difficult for people to imagine" is not set off properly (neither indented, nor in a smaller font size). As a result, it reads as if these are Kurtz's words, when in fact they are Gubaidulina's. Correctly indicating the specific dates for his conversations with Gubaidulina, if only for direct quotations, would better distinguish author from subject, and help readers begin evaluating the composer's own many modes of self-construction in her statements, an important topic left unexplored by Kurtz.
Kurtz surveys Gubaidulina's life chronologically starting with her birth in Chistopol and her childhood in Kazan (both located in Tatarstan, or Tatariya, at that time the Tatar Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic), and moves fluidly--albeit some-what episodically--through the major landmarks of her personal and creative life. The biography is clearly organized throughout, with helpful subsections to guide the reader to specific topics. Along the way we learn intriguing details about Gubaidulina's many interests, ranging from the worldly--her award-winning prowess at gymnastics, for example (p. 43)--to the spiritual, including her own ecstatic accounts of her religious awakening as a child (e.g., pp. 13-14) and her 1970 baptism under the encouragement of pianist Maria Yudina (pp. 86-87). It is unfortunate then that Kurtz is unable to resist tired stereotypes, in particular about Gubaidulina's Tatar ethnicity, as on page 51, where he refers to "the fiery and explosive rhythm of her Tatar temperament," as well as her gender, as on page 65, where he describes "her more delicate and sensitive feminine nature" (to complicate matters, some of this is derived from Gubaidulina herself; see the subsection "About male and female" on pp. 69-71). Some historical topics are also glossed too quickly (with resulting inaccuracies), as is the case with the very general account of the 1948 Resolution on Music (pp. 19-21), and the description of the adoption of twelve-tone techniques in the post-war USSR in which, among other things, Kurtz ignores the effects of the 1958 Declaration of the Central Committee that officially rescinded the 1948 resolution (pp. 63-64).
On a more fundamental level, the book's scholarly apparatus contains numerous errors and insufficiencies. Kurtz's bibliography has not been updated since its original publication, meaning that a number of recent salient sources remain untapped. This oversight seems odd given that major events in Gubaidulina's life have been updated (up to 2005) for the translation, and several more contributors have added new reminiscences to Kurtz's English text (these updates are all enumerated in Kurtz's "Preface to the American Edition," pp. xiii-xiv). Many of the sources cited in the endnotes are not listed in the bibliography, which is emphatically not a list of works cited; sources are absent for numerous statements in the text that warrant documentation (e.g., the account of Luigi Nono's 1963 visit to the USSR on p. 61); and there are many typographical errors in both notes and bibliography. For example, the editor for the important collection Drugoe iskusstvo, cited only in note 3, chapter 5 (p. 298), is "Talochkin" not "Talokin" (nor does this citation include the relevant page number in the volume: 79). There are a significant number of typographical errors in the main text as well, including the "Great Patriotic Par [i.e., War]" on page 19, "Andrei Zakharov [i.e., Sakharov]" on page 73; and the composer's own name in several places, among them page 74 ("Gubaidilina").
Other citations are unclear. For example page 38 of Kurtz's text includes a quotation by Gubaidulina (the full text reads: "When I arrived in Moscow in 1954," Gubaidulina commented later, "they had lifted the prohibitions and stopped searching the dorms at the conservatory."), yet chapter 4, page 298, note 2 credits Kurtz's interview with Andrey Volkonsky as its source. Is this an incorrect citation, or is Gubaidulina's remark in the text a version reported by Volkonsky (hence a quotation two times removed from its original source)? If the latter, it should be indicated as such in either the text or a note (this same ambiguity is also in the original German, see p. 365, note 39, of Kurtz, Sofia Gubaidulina: Eine Biografie). Such cases diminish the book's usefulness for scholars and students alike. In fact, after perusing Kurtz's authoritative "List of Works" (pp. 275-93) and his helpful bibliography of published Gubaidulina interviews (pp. 313-15), students might be better off moving to the bibliography for Gubaidulina's entry ("Gubaydulina, Sofiya Asgatovna") in The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians (2d ed., ed. Stanley Sadie and John Tyrrell [London: Macmillan, 2001]) by Russian musicologist Valentina Kholopova, supplementing this when applicable with Kurtz's endnotes.
On the whole, the English translation by Christoph K. Lohmann reads well, although I have found at least one inaccuracy that might suggest others. In the original German edition, Kurtz wrote that "Wolkonsky broke off his studies just after a year's leave of absence 'for medical reasons'" ("Brach Andrej Wolkonskij gerade nach einem Jahr Urlaub 'aus medizinischen Grunden' sein Studium ab," p. 66). The English translation omits almost half this and incorrectly reads: "Andrei Volkonsky quit 'for medical reasons'" (p. 37).
Kurtz's biography gives a good, thorough account of Gubaidulina's life that is more immediately accessible and less vexing for general readers than for specialists. Yet specialists will find it necessary reading due to the many significant details uncovered thanks to Kartz's interviews with Gubaidulina and her associates, although they too may often come up frustrated by problems in Kurtz's documentation of his sources.

Jhonny Peralta
Mets interested in Rafael Furcal
Nov 5, 2013, 12:25 PM EST
In their search for a shortstop alternative to Ruben Tejada the Mets "have contacted" Rafael Furcal, according to Jorge Castillo of the Newark Star Ledger.

The Tigers will pursue a closer, will not bring back Jhonny Peralta
Nov 4, 2013, 4:28 PM EST
As is usually the case, the Tigers closer situation is uncertain heading into the offseason.

Tigers will be hard-pressed to make big signing this winter
Nov 3, 2013, 7:10 PM EST
The Tigers have made a habit of big splashes in the offseasons. Three years ago, it was Victor Martinez. Then Prince Fielder. Last winter, the Tigers signed both Anibal Sanchez and Torii Hunter. Those deals have helped them reach the postseason each year, but the ultimate prize has remained out of reach. As the Tigers…

Red Sox players are privately beefing about Jhonny Peralta being eligible
Oct 15, 2013, 9:45 AM EST
Peter Gammons has a good take on Jhonny Peralta's presence on the Tigers' playoff roster. The easy part, which others have observed: he served his time and is eligible, so what's the problem?

Bob Melvin gets bailed out by overpowering Verlander
Oct 10, 2013, 11:37 PM EST
The A's made the most impetuous decision of the postseason in starting Sonny Gray over Bartolo Colon in Wednesday's Game 5, choosing a rookie over the guy who finished second in the AL in ERA based on one excellent performance.

There will be a Game 5 in Oakland on Thursday.

My flea market hasn't refreshed since the first generation. I have the salty candy and the profession book there, I don't want to buy them but will it refresh?
Answer from: SheenQueen
I have this problem also. I think what will work is if you wait until the next generation and hopefully it will refresh. I dont know what to do, but you should contact last day of work to tell them of this new glitch coming from the last update.
Answer from: Ooooooo
I don't think so you have you changed the time because that can cause the problem
Answer from: Starrrr
What generation are you on? If you're on your third, I would have to say to restart, it's probably a glitch.
Answer from: Criddle
The flea market refreshes every 3 days. hope that helped!
Answer from: PeaceLoveBooks
Well if you haven't restarted yet get the new update! it helped me!
Answer from: cupcakes132

Here's who you can expect to meet & mingle with at the show this year:
Roger Savage – Savage Studios
Inspired to capture the "light and shadow of Nature", where weather conditions change in seconds, he discovered that watercolour and paper were the best media from which to form his images.

You can find many local White Point scenes in Roger's work as he makes South Queens his home.

As you look around our Main Lodge – when you see a spotted owl, you know it's Crag's work….we're in love with these creations!
119 Hirtle Rd., Middlewood, NS
Julie Nauss – Imaginations Creations Jewelry Plus
Our Bunny Glass pendants have been very popular since Julie began creating them for us! Julie is a beach comber and makes one of a kind creations, using the materials she finds on the shores of Nova Scotia. She specializes in sea glass jewelry, but also uses driftwood, shells, sand dollars, and gemstones in her creations. Nature, especially the ocean, is her inspiration behind her work.
Laurie and Maggie Horton – Sticks & Stones Folk Art
Laurie & Maggie comb the beaches and the woods finding birds, fish and other creatures along the way. Their work is a team effort. Laurie carves the likeness and Maggie does the finishing paint work. Their work is whimsical and fun and it is a favourite of White Point and our guests.

PLE offers a pre vocational training component and vocational training with various cottage industries offering opportunity to learn on the job skills. PLE clients produce a number of wood and tin products for commercial sale.

1605 Stanburne Rd., Rosebud, NS
Leslie Snidal & Ed Saikaley – Cherry Hill Studio
Look closely at the fireplace in the Founder's Lounge – there are features carved into some stone – thanks to Ed! Ed and Leslie collaborate to create unique images in etched opalescent stained glass. Ed has taken the art of stained glass to a new level with a sandblasting technique used to sculpt the various images and expose the hidden colours beneath the surface of the glass. Leslie then turns them into wall art by framing them to best bring out the colours and textures. They live in an 18th century home on the South Shore of Nova Scotia and together they bring an artistic sensibility to their everyday life that is evident in their work.
8001 Route 331, Cherry Hill, Lunenburg, NS

I am sure from the the White Point Gift Shop, Mary's Saltwater Angels end up all over the world as they are a popular item with WP guests.

|Christian fiction writers to voice support of retailers at ICRS
|Written by Christine D. Johnson
|Thursday, 29 May 2014 02:16 PM EDT
As part of an ongoing effort to show appreciation for all branches of the CBA publishing, distribution and retail industry, American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) will play several supportive roles at CBA's 2014 International Christian Retail Show (ICRS).
ACFW will serve as the host of CBA's Christian Fiction Trends Workshop: Celebrating Story, to be held at the Georgia World Congress Center on Tuesday afternoon, June 24. This ticketed event for retailers will offer attendees a wide range of perspectives on current Christian fiction trends and what that can mean for retailers; insights from the heart of authors; practical information for boosting fiction sales; and a celebration of story and its impact. The event includes an author panel discussing specific fiction trends, time for authors and retailers to enjoy face-to-face conversations, door prizes and gift bags of autographed books from every participating author for every attending retailer.
On Monday, June 23, at 1:30 p.m. in the media room, ACFW will host a press conference announcing the Carol Award finalists for 2014 as well as the 2014 ACFW Lifetime Achievement Award Recipient. Carol Johnson—the Christian fiction pioneering editor in whose honor the award is named—will open the press conference with comments from her experience working in Christian fiction publishing.
ACFW will have a kiosk presence throughout the show at booth 913, where representatives are invited to interact with retailers and authors, gather insights about retailer challenges and share free resources and ideas to help meet those challenges.
"It's an honor to show our support of Christian retailing at ICRS," said ACFW CEO Colleen Coble. "Many authors began their journeys captured by books they found at a Christian bookstore. Many author/reader connections began there, too. ACFW looks forward to interacting with retailers at ICRS."

I've used 1 of my refunds about 3 weeks ago and I can't find the refund option anymore. I'm COMPLETELY sure I've only used 1, and it was returning Shaco. Did the option get moved to another spot? I remember the option being all the way to the right in a rectangle box under Purchases. Thanks!
Have this problem too. Refund button is gone. :S

I'm having the same problem. I traded in Xerath awhile ago, so I still have two trade ins left. Unfortunately I can't get rid of Rengar yet. I hope this gets fixed, or I figure out where the new location is.

Zonegran is a lifesaver! - Edited 11/06 Upgraded AGAIN 11/06: Back on zonegran (generic form). Was on 300mgs (all at nighttime) to help with sleeping AND weight loss, as well as a "mild" mood stabilizer. It works WONDERFULLY as a weight loser! I am now on 400mgs - all when I go to bed. I'm not sure if it's helping me sleep, but since I cut back on the seroquel, something is - so it must be the zonegran. I highly recommend this as an add-on drug. And now with it being a generic, it's more affordable. Plus, you can take them all at once. I've been on them around 8 mos this time and haven't had any break-thru manias. When I do have a higher-mania (I tend to be on the manic side), I take 40mgs of geodon 2x daily instead of the usual 20mgs and that helps. It will take a lot for me to give up my zonegran!
Latest update: Zonegran pooped out on me in Nov 2004. And for a few months I was rapid cycling and having mixed states I am now on lithium - see my rating there.
I take 300mgs & can't tell I'm bipolar anymore. I have more energy and am no longer depressed - which is a major thing for me since I spend most of my time in depression. There have been no side effects either (I came to zonegran off topamax...) which has been wonderful! I just LOVE this drug and would recommend it to everyone. I continue to lose weight and folks make comments on how much I've lost. I listed cost effectiveness as n/a because I have insurance and pay a co-pay. I listed n/a for effective after long term use because I've only used for under 2 months, so there has been no long term use yet. However, I hope this will be THE med for me!! Feel free to contact me privately for any questions - I'll be happy to reply.
First Update: I now take 400mgs a day along with 200mgs seroquel, and 30mgs paxil. I'm gaining a little weight with the seroquel (I think), but am still a LOT thinner than I was back when I was on zyprexa, lol! I take all 400mgs at night.

It really wasn't that long ago that Carrie Underwood was just a farm girl who'd never been on an airplane. Now she's a superstar world traveler! Before you watch Carrie and Brad Paisley host the CMA's tonight, check out our beloved Carrie when she was just a newbie! LOL

When I lived in Alaska everyone had studded tires and when the temperature never gets above freezing all winter long and the road stays white with frozen snow, they are a huge benefit. But honestly, in a place like the Tri-Cities, where they're great on a few icy mornings and that's it... I don't think it's worth the noise or the ripping up of the road to get studded tires.
We all hate Mondays. Well first I get to work, go to staff meeting, and then THIS happens:
For Veterans Day Nov. 11, Fox News is planning to interview the Navy SEAL who shot Osama Bin Laden. The Pentagon and Navy SEAL top commander both say the interview violates the "ethos" of the profession and national security regulations. Do you agree?
It occurred to me over the weekend, that truly my dog Crystal... IS in fact my very BEST friend! She is such a sweet soul who loves me unconditionally. I'm so happy God put dogs on earth. They are so precious to us humans!
Looking back on 2014, What goals did you achieve? I Just found my goal list for this past year...Seems most on these goals are a constant battle for me. And I am trying harder everyday to do better at them ALL! But I had to laugh, cause the only one I could really cross off my list was 'Clean the Garage'
Of course, that was in the summer and it's about time again

Vocabulary Word
Word: concordat
Definition: formal agreement
Definition: formal agreement
Sentences Containing 'concordat'
Because it took ten days for the news of Pope Paul III's death to reach the French court, at the start of the conclave almost all the cardinals aligned with the Holy Roman Empire were in Rome, while only two of the fourteen French cardinals were in Italy (one was Antoine du Meudon, who had been vacationing in Farnese territory); because one clause of the Concordat of Bologna allowed the pope to fill French benefices if the French prelate died in Rome, Henry II exhorted his cardinals to remain in France, and relied on his non-French allies (in particular, Ippolito II d'Este) to act as his go-between with the Roman Curia.
Concordat between bodies inspecting, regulating and auditing health or social care
Following the Concordat of 11 June 1817, the archdiocese was restored in 1822 to its former borders and title.
It was formerly the seat of the Bishop of Saint-Pol-de-Léon, a bishopric established in the 6th century and abolished under the Concordat of 1801, when its territory was transferred to the Diocese of Quimper.
It was suppressed by the Concordat of 1801.
Similarly, when the issue of secondary education was discussed, Servais argued that the Concordat of 1801 and Organic Articles were annulled by the Belgian Constitution of 1831, and so the Luxembourgian government was under no obligation to the Catholic Church.
The Bavarian Concordat of 1817 after Dalberg's death downgraded the Archdiocese of Regensburg into a suffragan diocese subordinate to the archbishop of Munich and Freising.
The concordat afterwards, in the sixteenth century, gave to the kings of France the absolute right of presenting to all the great, or what are called the consistorial, benefices of the Gallican church.
The Concordat between bodies inspecting, regulating and auditing health or social care (2004) is a "voluntary agreement between organisations that regulate, audit, inspect or review elements of health and healthcare in England".
The Soviet government instead pursued a policy of demanding the Vatican to grant it recognition without a concordat or any conditions, and held out the prospect that doing so could result in priests being released from prison.
There are full and associate signatories to the concordat.
This independency of the clergy of France upon the court of Rome seems to be principally founded upon the pragmatic sanction and the concordat.
More Vocab Words::: denizen - (animal, person, or plant) inhabitant or resident of a particular place; regular visitor
::: rend - split; tear apart; N. rent; CF. heartrending: causing deep sorrow
::: transitory - transient; impermanent; fleeting; N. transitoriness
::: craven - cowardly
::: lucre - money; profit; Ex. filthy lucre
::: bilk - swindle; cheat
