Van Cliburn: 1934 - 2013
February 27, 2013
by Philippe Halsman
1958. The American pianist VAN CLIBURN.
Photographer Philippe Halsman recalls:
"Last year a magazine asked me to make a cover photograph of Van Cliburn. After an agonizing sitting with the famous pianist - he does not care to pose for photographers - I rearranged my speedlights, pulled out my Rollei and asked him whether he would jump for me. Van Cliburn refused. Politely I inquired what his reasons were for not wanting to jump. The artist put his arms behind his back, lifted his chim and said, "There is no need for explanations". Semiautomatically my finger pressed the release and I obtained a photograph of Mr. Cliburn at this stirring moment."

Prolific Bassist/Composer Kyle Eastwood is back for 4 nights at Ronnie's...
""Eastwood demonstrates monster bass chops." - JazzTimes
"considerable charm and unassuming excellence" (The Times)"
Thoughtful, contemplative, admirably understated and highly listenable." - Evening Standard
Kyle Eastwood grew up in Carmel, California, as the eldest son of actor Clint Eastwood. As a child he listened to records of jazz stars such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Miles Davis playing in the house. His father had been attending the Monterey Jazz Festival since it began in 1958 and when his children were born it became a yearly family outing. His latest album, "The View From Here" (Jazzvillage, Harmonia Mundi), embraces this musical heritage which goes back to the soundtrack of his youth when his father
introduced him to the joys of the bass line.
In the last 10 years, Kyle has toured extensively around the world, performing at the likes of The Olympia (Paris), Jazz in Marciac (France), The Monterey Jazz Festival (California), The Jurasum Festival (South Korea), the Blue Notes in Tokyo and New York, Kampnagel (Hamburg) and Ronnie Scott's (London). The music resonates with swing, groove and funk overtones; "my roots remain in jazz but I like adding all kinds of different flavours" said Kyle.
Today Kyle Eastwood is less and less the son of Clint and more of a universally respected musician and leader in his own right. A virtuoso bassist on electric and upright as well as a talented composer with a keen ear for great tunes as well as the subtleties of modern jazz, he is right at the forefront of the contemporary scene, having chosen to immerse himself in the music he loves.
"Eastwood's music is all about style" (Jazzwise)
"Eastwood and his band create music from the heart: uplifting, reflective and beautiful." (Bruce Lindsay, All
About Jazz)
"Kyle Eastwood's band are a hot live act. Driven by Eastwood's bass guitar , they inject life into audiences,
getting them moving and grooving" (BBC Music Online)
"Very sharp work. There's no denying Kyle has imagination and skill" (The Observer)

1 Question from the Community
The Swanstone SB-1248 has a seat that is two times thicker than the wall panels. The wall panel thickness is 0.40". The material is Swanstone, which is like an acrylic, but not as rigid. It is resistant to stains. It's a much more durable material than other acrylic models.
What is the exact thickness dimension? What is the "solid surface" composite made of?

Very cheep looking!
We recently tiled our shower stall, however wanted the seat to be a solid surface, so this looked like it would be prefect. Boy were we wrong! The product's edges are square and it has a VERY thin profile. When we cut to size and set it in place it looked like we set a piece of sheet rock down. The color was fine, but it was very difficult to cut. Not happy! Do not waste your money. We now went to a granite company and got a marble remnant cut and finished for $100!

For more than four decades, we have been a quiet leader in the kitchen and bath industry. Our high-quality products have always balanced durability, value and style. Innovation is one of our core values, and we have set a standard with our ability to invent. Now it's time to reinvent.
The Swan Story
For more than 40 years, we've been creating innovative and affordable solid surface products and materials for customers all over the world. It started in 1964, when we introduced the Swan Shell Shower, a doorless, shell-shaped shower that captured the spirit of its time.
The Shell Shower was the first in a long line of original kitchen and bath products from Swan, including the Circle Shower as well as the industry's first non-ceramic tile bathtub wall system.
In 1987, we introduced Swanstone to the world, first with a line of vanity tops and bowls. Swanstone quickly became known for its superior impact strength, heat resistance, and ability to resist scratches and stains. Consumers now had an elegant and durable solid surface material that was also affordable.
Since then, our Swanstone line has expanded to include a wide variety of kitchen sinks, countertops, tub and shower walls, and more. In 1994 we introduced the Swanstone 1/4" sheet program, offering even more flexibility to Swanstone customers. In 1997 we introduced a complete line of Swanstone products for the restaurant industry, including tabletops, countertops, vanity tops, mop service sinks and windowsills.
At Swan, we're committed to a policy of continuous improvement, to providing our customers with the highest quality products and most responsive customer service in the kitchen & bath industry. And we stand behind this commitment with some of the best warranties in the business.

A. M. Stroud III, a former prosecutor in Louisiana, expresses regret for the role he played in sending Glenn Ford to death row in 1984. "I was 33 years old. I was arrogant, judgmental, narcissistic and very full of myself. I was not as interested in justice as I was in winning." Stroud says he presented dubious evidence from a forensic pathologist, precluded black jurors from the trial (Ford, since exonerated, is black), and ignored the fact that the appointed defense attorney had never before tried a criminal or capital case. "I . . . hope that providence will have more mercy for me than I showed Glenn Ford," Stroud said in a letter to the editor of the Times of Shreveport. "But, I'm also sobered by the realization that I certainly am not deserving of it" (ABA Journal, March 25).

And Beyond…
Wednesday, December 1st, 2010Here we are, my friends. The 1000th post. Whew! It's quite a load off to have finally made it. Hopefully this doesn't come as a surprise to anyone since I've been announcing it for months, and if you have questions, hopefully the FAQ can answer them. I wrote and re-wrote this post several times. There's so much to say. How can you sum up 5 years of a blog in one post? I have so much to say, but I'm not going to write a book about why I'm shutting the blog down, I'll just focus on the major issue at hand - happiness. Isn't that what life's really all about?
It wasn't that long ago that I unfortunately lost my love affair with security. Even a few years ago my wife would find me up way too late at night writing some little proof of concept code, excited to post about it the next day. A lot has changed. Some of it is external forces, and some of it is that I realized that I've done what I came here to do. When I ask audiences at conferences how many people have heard of XSS or CSRF or command injection or SQL injection, nearly everyone raises their hand. I can rest easy now in that the ultimate mission of the blog has been a success - people have been educated, partly through me, and partly because the industry at large has stepped up to the plate and done an amazing job of absorbing the problems.
I started ha.ckers.org as a place for me to experiment on my own, and share ideas with a few like-minded folks. I never intended it to be a big site, but scope creep from the original mission changed all that. I realized I could educate a lot more people than the 20 or so readers I had started out with. 20,000 readers, countless press articles and 5 years later, and I've been run through the meat grinder. My love for security was unfortunately replaced by a sense of servitude.
With any kind of work you get a sense of anxiety. But the biggest problem is that security stopped making me happy. I got into security because I enjoyed the intellectual puzzle. The industry around me has certainly changed several times since I got started but more importantly I too changed. My wife told me not too long ago that I wasn't a hacker anymore, I was a politician, looking to see how I rated in the polls. I really didn't like what I had become - that's not me at all. I normally hate the press, and I've never enjoyed public speaking. It was always a necessary evil. An evil that I embraced far too much, if you ask me.
They say that if you look at the graph of happiness in your life you can tell what sort of life you led. For instance, if your life starts positive, then goes down, and then ends positive it's a comedy. If it starts low, goes up and then ends badly, well, then you lead a tragic life. I've never claimed to be a futurist, and in fact, I've found the question, "What do you think we'll see in the future" to be a terrifying question - what if I'm completely wrong?
I'm not an oracle and I really don't like giving people incorrect information. But if I were to look at the graph of my life honestly, it wasn't trending well over the last few years, looking more like downward trending saw blade of perpetual highs and lows. Although there have been a lot of individual highlights and amazing things that have happened, I've noticed and other friends, family, and peers have noticed that I've gotten less and less happy as a whole. As much as my trustworthy friends tried to convince me that the negative sentiment was meaningless, it was having a profound effect on my desire to continue. The saw blade was trending downward. I'm not blameless for how I got here - no one is perfect, least of all me.
Although I'm a fun loving person in many ways I also tend to be a pessimist and I do take things too seriously sometimes - definitely to a fault. I saw my happiness declining and the light at the end of that tunnel was getting further and smaller as I went on. It became harder to shrug things off, and I started worrying about even the simplest of things. So instead of being a victim of my own circumstance I made a decision to make my own destiny and start enjoying life again.
So this is it - I'm taking my happiness back and I'll be taking on new and exciting challenges without the drama of intense public scrutiny. It's time to make the graph of my life into a comedy - filled with excitement and wonder in the unknown. I'll always have a soft spot for security; I'll keep up on it, and I'll continue to research and run my company, among a lot of other things, insofar as it doesn't impinge on my happiness. Not hedonism, my friends, happiness. Now is the time to seize the day and start having fun again. Life's too short.
I could also spend pages iterating all the people who've helped me think through the countless issues we've talked about, sent in ideas and generally made this website and WebAppSec in general a success. Rather than risk excluding anyone all I can say is that I truly, deeply respect all of you for your skills and appreciate what you've done for me and the industry as a whole. Perhaps no one but me will truly appreciate everything you've done, but trust me, you're the real gods of WebAppSec. I wish you the best. So I leave it to you all - this industry along with all the good and bad, in very capable hands. Trust me, there are plenty of amazing people out there. Now it's time for them to take their rightful place.
So… where can this mythical happiness monster be found, you may be asking? For me the journey to find happiness starts with a cold beer - so that's where I'm headed. On behalf of id and myself, adios, my friends! Thank you for reading.

Yes, the higher temps are more applicable to larger batches of cheese.....like 20+ pounds at a time. Otherwise, it is very difficult to work that much cheese at lower temps.

I would definitely recommend this product. My 11 year old loves it. Good set for the price.
After searching for over a month for some new bedding for my nine year old son; we finally found this pattern here at Overstock. Not only was it immediately available, but shipping was fast and my son LOVES it! It is so hard to find some "cool" bedding for a boy who has outgrown cartoon characters but wants something more than stripes, plaids or solids.
Was anticipating my past experience from major store You know, just your typical inexpensive bed-n-bag that last a year and than you donate to xxxxx. This set from Overstock pleasantly surprised me and surpassed my expectations. 7 year old son loves this in his room. I've washed & dryed the set several times since we have a cat that sleeps on it as well; the sheets & comforter come out looking great.
Love the colors and pattern for boys. Hip, fashionable, and should last my 4 year old a solid amount of time due to the fact that its not covered in super heroes, but skaters, etc, which is more relevant as they get older.
I was looking for a comforter set for my grandson who is 8yrs old. He loves his bed set as so do I. Its a great looking set I would recommend this set to anyone. GREAT Quality. Looks nice. Very pleased. Thank you O.co
Good quality and my 7 year old grandson loves this set.
Very nice for the price. The fit is good. It is hard to find non-sports styles for pre-teens but this fits the bill. My 8 year old son loves it.
This product is good quality for the price. The sheets are pretty soft, as well as the comforter. The comforter seems to be the right weight too -- not too heavy, not too light -- seems like it would be great for all seasons. The colors are as pictured. Looks cool in my son's room and he loves it!
Recently redid my 8 year old son's room and picked a skateboard theme, this set was perfect! It was edgy but appropriate for a younger boy and will still be "cool" for many years. He's pretty picky about sheet scratchiness, and said these were nice. Great value as well!
Excellent quality and extra comfy, this complete bed-in-a-bag is the perfect fit for my teen son! The sheets aren't scratchy as seems to be the case with many such products. It's impossible to feel these things while shopping online, so let me just tell you that my super-sensitive-skinned son just loves this set...and he makes his bed every day!

Wild Card spot on line as Rangers host Halos
Garza, Williams slated to start opener of final series of season
The Rangers have one roadblock standing between them and a potential playoff spot. And it's a familiar opponent.
One game back of the Indians for the second American League Wild Card spot, the Rangers will host the Angels on Thursday to open a four-game series that will decide their fate of a 162-game season.
"This is a situation that every ballplayer should look forward to -- playing games with the intensity that we're playing," Rangers outfielder Alex Rios said. "When you play meaningful games, it's so exciting. It's just fun to play like this."
The Rangers are 11-4 against the Angels this year, but the Angels have looked like a different team of late, going 23-9 since Aug. 23 and winning nine of their last 10 series.
"I expected them to play the way they are a lot earlier than this," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "Those young kids they have been running out there have been playing good baseball, and their starting pitching has been good. They're playing Angels baseball. But I still think we can beat them."
The Angels took two of three against the Rangers earlier this month.
"We're going to try our best to beat them and try to get some momentum and some positive notes going into the offseason and Spring Training," Halos outfielder Mike Trout said.
Angels left-hander C.J. Wilson said the club has its sights set on knocking the Rangers from the playoff hunt.
"I think we have enough guys that understand the importance of playing our best to give Cleveland and Tampa the best chance at [the playoffs]," Wilson said. "And also, if Texas beats us, then they have to earn it. We don't want to just roll over and give it to them.
"You want to win. There's no better feeling than to go on the road and beat somebody. If you can beat somebody in front of their home fans, that's even better. Because you expect to win at home. But if you win on the road, that's even better."
The pitching matchups appear to favor the Rangers, who start off with Matt Garza on Thursday before throwing three starters -- Alexi Ogando, Derek Holland and Yu Darvish -- with ERAs of 3.33 or less.
Garza finally looked like himself in his last start against the Royals, throwing eight innings of one-run ball while striking out five. He had previously allowed 10 homers in his last nine starts with the Rangers while posting a 5.72 ERA and allowing an .828 OPS against.
The Angels, meanwhile, are still unsure if Jerome Williams will be able to make his scheduled start Thursday after taking a ball off his foot while throwing with Dane De La Rosa during batting practice on Monday, so they're closely monitoring him.
"We'll see where he is, but we'll have some time to look at it tomorrow, and if he's able to do the things he needs to do, he'll pitch," manager Mike Scioscia said.
One option if Williams can't go would be Matt Shoemaker, who started in place of Jered Weaver on Friday. Tommy Hanson and Joe Blanton could also start.
Rangers: Cruz's status for postseason play uncertain
The offense in Texas hasn't looked the same this September, as the Rangers have averaged fewer than four runs per game, ranking 20th in the Majors. If they do qualify for the postseason, Nelson Cruz would be eligible to return from a 50-game suspension for violating Major League Baseball's Basic Agreement and Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment program.
But Rangers general manager Jon Daniels said it's not definite that the team would allow Cruz to play in the playoffs, if Texas qualifies.
"We haven't made a call," Daniels said. "I don't think it's in anyone's interest to start talking about playoff rosters. We just got to win tonight and go from there. We're right in the middle of this pennant race. We just got to play our best baseball one night at a time."
Angels: Trout gets rest in chase of 200 hits
The Angels rested Trout on Wednesday against the A's, limiting his chances to reach 200 hits.
"He's played a lot -- this day off is long overdue for him," Scioscia said. "He's just out of sync and he's been grinding it, he just needs a day."
Trout has 187 hits on the season but is hitting .173 (9-for-52) over his last 15 games.
"In the batter's box, he's pressing, I think, a little bit," Scioscia said. "It's obviously a long season and he's tired."
Worth noting
• With 36,226 fans at Wednesday's home finale, the Angels eclipsed the 3 million mark in attendance for the 11th consecutive season. This season's total was 3,019,505.
• Rangers veteran Lance Berkman, bothered by inflammation in his left hip as well as a chronic sore right knee, will be available only as a pinch-hitter for the rest of the regular season.

Ukiah Daily Journal
The man accused of shooting at a deputy sheriff from a speeding car on Highway 253 Monday night was in court Friday for arraignment, and is due back in court next week.
Walter K. Miller, 42, of Ukiah, allegedly leaned out the passenger window of a 1995 Thunderbird driven by his co-defendant, Christopher Skaggs, 30, of Redwoood Valley, and shot at deputy Darren Brewster's pursuing patrol car, hitting the radiator and disabling the car about two miles after turning onto the winding Highway 253 south of Ukiah in the Feb. 25 high-speed chase.
Miller is charged with attempted murder, assault with a firearm, first-degree burglary, robbery, witness intimidation with force and special allegations of having served prior prison terms and having two prior strikes under California's Three Strikes law.
Burt Schlosser of the Alternate Defender's Office was appointed Friday to temporarily represent Miller until he can hire a private attorney.
Prosecutor Matt Hubley of the Mendocino County District Attorney's Office argued that Miller should be held at the county jail under a no-bail hold, but Schlosser told the court his office hadn't had time to respond to such a request, and that the DA's Office could make its case for a no-bail hold later.
The court set Miller's bail at $1.6 million. He is due back in court for further arraignment March 6, when Skaggs and his girlfriend, Tracy Cox, 34, of Redwood Valley -- who was allegedly in the car with them and is facing a felony accessory charge -- are also due in court for further arraignment in the case. Skaggs is held under $1.25 million bail.
Miller was sought for two days after he allegedly fired five or six rounds from what authorities believe was an AP9 9 mm machine pistol with a 30-round magazine from the passenger window of the T-bird Skaggs drove.
The machine pistol was found in Miller's hotel room at the Best Western on Orchard Avenue, where he surrendered Wednesday evening, when his state parole agent arrived from Sonoma County, after a nearly three-hour standoff with local SWAT agents.
The T-bird was found abandoned in the driveway of a home in the 6000 block of Highway 253 with items inside that had been reported stolen earlier that night from a Potter Valley home.
Authorities are still looking for the other four guns that were reported stolen from the home, one of which was the machine pistol authorities believe was used in the shooting, according to Mendocino County Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Greg Van Patten.

Yes this is true, i'm try Sauerbraten with Ati 9250. In Windows water refraction/reflection not slowing things like the same game with radeon driver in Ubuntu (don't know exactly, but this is
seems to be due lack of occlusion extension (i'm read somewhare that this extension has some IP status, and because of that is hard to implement in radeon?) and because of this many games is very slow
in open areas). And yes enabled hyperz in driconf speed things a bit with some games, but have weird bugs plus, in Serious Sam (or JediKnight: JA) in Wine, or with native installer for SSam F/S (how to say) unplug/perforation/blinked lighting in areas with sun rays, lamps or similar. Also Doom3 has some problems with mirroring, that's not happen in Windows, etc... There is much room of improvements on r200, maybe that documentations help developers in some for these kind of problems and on the other hand also
with newer chips.

A 750-mile pipeline across Canada cuts through First Nation lands and pristine environments to bring oil-rich tar sands to a new terminal on the Pacific Ocean. The company behind the project, the Calgary, Alberta-based Enbridge Inc., argues that the pipeline will create thousands of jobs and an influx of cash from the Asian companies that will buy and process the tar sands.
But the economic analysis presented to the Canadian government does not account for the pipeline's environmental impact, including the potential for a spill, said Matthias Ruth, a Northeastern professor with dual appointments in the College of Engineering and the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs.
Ruth is at the forefront of the emerging field of environmental economics, which focuses on developing methods to account for unquantifiable environmental contributions to the economy. Read More

Nov 22, 2010Kesha keeps getting better. You may complain her lyrics are vain and stupid all you want but thats exactly what she is trying to be. Shes not pretending to be someone she isnt, she is who she is. Her music is made exactly what it is for, expression and fun, its to get lost in the beat. Hate her all you want but with 5 straight top 10 hits her work speaks for itself.

Apr 4, 2011IIIIII LLLLOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE KKKKKKEEEEEE$$$$$$$$$HHHHHHAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CCCAAANNNIIIBBBAAALLL FTW!!! This EP is amazing. Non stop dancing :P
Nov 30, 2010Ke$ha really did an aazing job on her EP. I myself am a huge fan and this was a very inticipated album for me. Ke$ha's intoxicating synths, and funky lyrics really have you dancing. She also has a softer side. "The Harold Song" is about how she misses someone who was sopecial in her ife. Overall, a really really really awesome album!
Nov 25, 2010
Dec 3, 2010Now we all know that Ke$ha is your Marmite singer...you either love her or hate her. I LOVE HER! she is a musician/lyricist genius, she has set the bars up another level with Cannibal...every track is just infectious as the next one and contains some hilarious lyrics like "Now that I'm famous, your up my anus!"..pure brilliance. The track "Cannibal" is my favourite.
Oct 7, 2011I Thought I Liked Animal...I LOVE Cannibal Ever More!
Some Of The Best Tracks Are We R We R, Cannibal, Blow & Grow A Pear The Worst Song By Far Is Slezy.. Its Not Bad... Its Just Not The Best Son.. I Still LOVE K$! -
Oct 21, 2011She is who she is, and I love her for it! She knows what she wants, and she can adequately portray it to her fanbase. All in all, she knows how to make a great pop record, and I look forward to her future matierla.
Dec 4, 2012This album is too amazing. Cannibal is the masterpiece that pressed people can't get over. Sadly, their faves don't make masterpieces like this and they are jealous.The 9 bops on this album are enough to get the party wild.
Nov 23, 2010"If you like to enjoy your life, you will like this record. It's for people who are alive and happy." - Ke$ha
I would say this pretty much sums it up. -

Jun 2, 2011Listening to dollar-sign-girl is pure dance pop addiction. In her latest EP and major release, the drunk gal proved to be a rising dance artist with creatively nasty lyrics and poppy production excess that make sense. Though her heart is in the clubs, her music is all the more enjoyable and (rare in the pop music landscape, believe it or not) in focus.
May 29, 2011After a slew of bad singles from her first album (with the exception of "Your Love Is My Drug"), Ke$ha's second album is surprisingly well-done. Other than "Blow", which has an annoying refrain, the album is full of energetic dance-pop, with highlights being "Sleazy" and "Crazy Beautiful Life".
Jul 29, 2011
May 29, 2012Once More Ke$ha Does It Again!
A Great Pop Dance Album! We R Who We R Is A Amazing Track! -
Mar 31, 2013
Mar 24, 2013Cannibal Is Somewhat A Better Album That Animal... In A Way....
A Amazing Album By Ke$ha!
Below Is A List Of Song Off Cannibal And A Score Out Of 10
Cannibal 10/10
We R Who We R 10/10
Slezy 5/10
Blow 10/10
The Harold Song 10/10
Crazy Beautiful Life 10/10
Grow A Pear 10/10
C U Next Tuesday 10/10 -
Aug 15, 2013It is a shame that "Cannibal" was an EP, because it had lots of potential. The best songs are "Cannibal", "The Harold Song", and "C U Next Tuesday".
Dec 16, 2014One of the best EPs I've ever heard, was worth an entire album, all his songs can be good and you do not get tired of hearing it
Highlights: Sleazy and The Harold Song
Lows: CU Next Tuesday and Crazy Beautiful Life
Dec 20, 2010This adjunct to "Animal" is unapologetically escapist and highly programmed fun.
Dec 8, 2010Sure, Max Martin's hooks, and especially Dr. Luke's neon-colored throb push these tunes into your head--they're in top form, aided by the tight focus of an eight-track EP, Cannibal's brevity trumping the scattershot Animal--but what makes them stick is Kesha, a pop star lacking pop star looks and a pop star voice.
Dec 8, 2010Ke$ha didn't really set the bar for intellectual heft too high on her debut, Animal, so it seems like hair-splitting to mention that even with guilty pleasures like "Cannibal" and, uh, "C U Next Tuesday," Cannibal seems to be skimping on the cleverness.

text: I too am at the point of either becoming vegetarian or at least limiting consumption to locally, humanely raised meat. These factory farms are an abomination. It is an excuse for extreme animal abuse. Producers that see their animals as 'products', instead of the living, thinking, feeling creatures that they are, are disgusting. These gruesome torture chambers must be held to the same standards as anyone else when it comes to animal abuse. Sickening.

Modest Mussorgski
1839 - 1881
Folk drama in five acts, libretto by Shostakovitch
Frankfurt production, Shostakovitch edition, final scene after Igor Stravinsky, Paris, 1913
Sung in Russian with German surtitles
Duration: c. 4 hrs. incl. one interval
About the work
»Fifty years of Russian history in one evening« - Mussorgsky's monumental operatic legacy. Khovanshchina - »the scandals of the Khovansky family«, dates back to the late 17th century. Before Peter the First was crowned, Russia was in a state of confusion and threatened to descend into chaos because of the conflict between the Raskolniki (»Old Believers«), the Strelitzen (Ivan the Terrible's army) and boyars (representatives of the duma). Mussorgsky composed an historical work in five acts. He avoided sticking to a strict narrative line by using loosely connected tableaux, which combine to provide a vivid picture of events: the collision of these tableaux results in »The Russian people being unconsciously at the mercy of the grindingly constant shifting of disparate blocks of power« (Julia Spinola). The composer did not complete the opera. Mussorgsky's powerful music is performed in an edition by Shostakovitch – without his finale, which is replaced by one reconstructed by Stravinsky from Mussorgsky's sketches.
Moscow 1682 – 89: Chowanski, leader of the Streletsy, seeks the people's favour by presenting himself as a benefactor and protector of Moscow. His son Andrei trys to violate Emma, a german protestant girl he has abducted but Marfa, his former mistress, prevents him. Father and son squabble over the girl. Dosifei rescues her and prays to God to save old Russia. Prince Golizyn has received letters warning him that he is on shaky ground. Unsettled that he might lose the Tsarina and power, he returns to his roots and asks Marfa, who possesses the art of prophesy, to predict his future. She tells him that he will soon lose everything. Horrified, he dismisses her and orders that she be murdered. As if smelling blood Chowanski arrives, followed by Dosifei. They argue about power and Russia's future. Schaklowity bursts in with news that the Streletsy are in revolt, and that Peter I is retaliating mercilessly. The people watch Golizyn being sent into exile. It ends with the ultra orthodox believers, unable to escape Peter's men, building their own funeral pyres. Marfa bewitches Andrei with her fanaticism and, although he could try and escape, he is drawn to join them as they give their souls to the flames.

Tampa Bay Rays Tickets
Tampa Bay Rays Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5
based on 0 customer reviews
2013 Record (91-71) Lost to Red Sox in Playoffs
The Tampa Bay Rays had another successful season in 2013. They advanced to the second round of the playoffs before falling to the eventual World Series champion Boston Red Sox. Joe Maddon, the manager, has been with the organization since 2005 and has seen great success. His ability to field an increasingly competitive team given the small market in Tampa has been nothing short of amazing. On the field the Rays are lead by superstar player and face of the franchise Evan Longoria. Longoria, who signed a 6 year extension last year, led the team in home runs and runs batted in. Among other things the Rays are known for their great pitching staff. With young arms like David Price, Matt Moore, and Chris Archer the Rays are set up great for the future.
In what most people agree is the most competitive division in baseball, the AL East, the 2014 Rays find themselves scrapping to compete. This slight slide early on is due to their stars not performing. Superstar Evan Longoria will need to rebound from a less than stellar start to the year if the Rays want to compete. Their pitching staff looks to improve as a whole as they have battled an early injury to Matt Moore. Look for the Rays to get back to their winning ways and make sure you head to Tropicana Field to catch a game. Head to Gold Coast Tickets to get the best seats for the best prices!

All selections, analysis and thoughts will be posted on the Bowl Express Thread SPOOKY EXPRESS BOWLING FOR DOLLARS SELECTION AND ANALYSIS THREAD AT&T COTTON BOWL TEXAS A&M vs. OKLAHOMA Friday, Jan 4, 8:00 pm FOX A traditional Big 12 rivalry will be renewed in this season's AT&T Cotton Bowl when the Oklahoma Sooners clash with the Texas A&M Aggies at Cowboys Stadium. Oklahoma came into this season with serious national title expectations, but they crashed and burned early in the year with a stunning 24-19 loss to then-No.15 Kansas State as a 15.5-point home favorite. The Sooners only other loss this season came at the hands of No.1 Notre Dame as 10.5-point favorites at home to finish 10-2 straight up. Texas A&M's first year in the SEC was certainly a memorable one that was capped off with the biggest upset of the season in college football: a 29-24 shocker over then-No.1 Alabama as a 13.5-point road underdog. Before the season started, this was supposed to be head coach Bob Stoop's return to the top of the college world and quarterback Landry Jones' run to a Heisman Trophy. While it is hard to call a 10-win season a failure, both Stoops and Jones fell well short of these lofty expectations. Nonetheless, they still bring a very high-powered offensive attack into this showdown with an average of 40.3 points a game. The Oklahoma defense remained solid for most of the season, but it took on water down the stretch by giving up 34 points to Baylor, 49 points to West Virginia and 48 points in a thrilling overtime victory over in-state rival Oklahoma State. The Aggies started the season with a 20-17 loss to Florida as one-point home underdogs but turned that disappointing setback into a five-game winning streak before coming up just short in a five-point loss to LSU. All the while the legend of Johnny 'Football' Manziel began to grow week after week. Everyone in the nation knew who Johnny Football was after the freshman quarterback led his team to that legendary victory over the Crimson Tide. Manziel went on to win the Heisman Trophy behind opening-day odds too high to calculate. Fueled by Manziel, Texas A&M has been able to average 44.8 points a game this season, which is the third-highest total in the country. The Aggies' defense did its part all year long by holding teams to an average of just 22.5 points a game. If you look over the past trends for both teams as well as the head-to-head matchups, they certainly paint a bright picture for Oklahoma. However, you can pretty much throw all of them out the window in this matchup. Texas A&M has already proven it can stand up to and beat the best teams in the country, while the Sooners have to question how another BCS title run slipped away. This will be a great, hard-fought contest that will undoubtedly go down to the wire. Right now early on I have Texas A&M expected to win by a little more than a field goal. But that said this game could go a number of ways. Right now I will sit back and wait until we get closer to kickoff to make a decision and see where the Spooky Magic takes us. Well when a game is up in the air you always take the points. The game is really not a very strong play but we have been en fuego and honestly have been doing so well will press this some and go with Oklahoma a little more than I should. I also think the game should stay under the number but its more an opinion than anything else. Either way this is the weakest of the bowl games this year for the most part so nothing crazy. OKLAHOMA +5 OKLAHOMA vs. TEXAS A&M UNDER 75 POINTS

Scherzer eyes Tigers' division clincher in final start
Postseason berth secured, club seeking third straight AL Central title
The Tigers locked up a spot in the postseason with their 4-2 win on Tuesday, the first time they're headed for the playoffs in three straight years since 1907-1909. However, their magic number for clinching a third consecutive American League Central title is at one, and they will need another win, or an Indians loss, to seal their spot atop the division.
Max Scherzer, who leads the Majors with 20 wins, is 2-0 with a 2.70 ERA in two starts against Minnesota this season, striking out 16 in 13 1/3 innings. He will be making his final regular-season start as he puts the finishing touches on his case as the favorite to win the AL Cy Young Award.
"You relish these moments," Scherzer said. "You play the game to win. You play the game to be on top. And tomorrow we have a chance to be on top of the American League Central. That's always a special moment because it's never easy to get to the playoffs. For me, I'm going to treat it like Game 7 of the World Series, get ready for the playoffs. That's the type of mentality it's going to be in the playoffs. Might as well do it in my last start of the season."
Meanwhile, Twins right-hander Kevin Correia will also make his final start of the season. He's been one of Minnesota's most consistent pitchers, posting a 4.29 ERA in 30 starts, though he's just looking to finish on a strong note.
"Another win isn't really going to change our season that much," Correia said. "I'm just going to go out there and throw a good game. Wins and losses are kind of out of our hand but at this point in my career, I'm trying to win games. I'd rather give up a few runs and get the win than throw a good game and not get the win."
The Twins are looking to play spoiler, as Detroit can become the first team to win three straight division crowns since Minnesota from 2002-2004.
"If our starter gives us a chance, we have to hang in there, because we're facing good pitchers," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "It all gets down to if your guy gives you a chance because these guys are good. They're pitching well and have a great offense. So we just want to hang in there and then have fun at the end of the game."
Tigers: Coke headed for MRI
• Reliever Phil Coke will have an MRI on Wednesday in Detroit on his left elbow, which tightened up on him overnight after throwing a bullpen session on Monday at Target Field.
"[Tuesday] it was tight and sore," Coke said. "And before I threw [Monday], I didn't feel anything."
While the best-case scenario may be treatment and rest rather than surgery, it seemingly leaves little to no time for him to get ready for the postseason.
"I'm incredibly disappointed right now just because the way it's been going," Coke said. "I feel like I'm letting everybody down. I don't deal well with being in this current position."
• Jose Iglesias took more grounders at shortstop before Tuesday's game, but manager Jim Leyland said Iglesias is still struggling to grip a bat with his bruised left hand.
Twins: Pelfrey wants to return in 2014
• Mike Pelfrey made his last start of the season on Monday night, holding the Tigers to one run over six innings, and the upcoming free agent hopes to return to Minnesota next year.
"I want to come back," Pelfrey said. "Ultimately, it's in their hands what direction they want to go. But I told them I'd love to come back."
Pelfrey, who had a $4 million base salary and received a $100,000 bonus for pitching more than 150 innings, posted a 5.19 ERA in 29 starts over 152 2/3 innings.
"I'm not going to sugarcoat it and say I had a good year," Pelfrey said. "It didn't work out the way I wanted for me or the team."
• Oswaldo Arcia missed his second straight game on Tuesday night because of a bruised right knee, which he sustained when he ran into the outfield wall during batting practice on Monday.
"He jumped up at the wall while shagging some balls out there," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "So he has a bruise or a contusion. But he's not moving well. Hopefully, he'll get better. They told me to give him a day or two."
Worth noting
• Miguel Cabrera is batting .440 with one home run and eight RBIs against Correia in 25 career at-bats.
• Ryan Doumit needs just one home run to reach 100 for his career.

Dove Flats Wildlife Area
Elk City, KS
Manager: Darin Porter
Phone: 620.331.6820
This property was utilized as an air base during WWII, and was declared surplus property, then donated to the then Forestry, Fish and Game in 1974 for wildlife habitat and hunting. The property was initially managed in conjunction with the Elk City Wildlife Area, located a few miles to the south. The property was renamed Dove Flats in 1996 to recognize the long tradition of Dove hunting in the local area.
Dove Flats is a 206 acre property of upland type habitat including native grasses, cropland and mixed habitats. Management is primarily aimed at upland and grassland type species with an emphasis on Dove hunting management.
The property is utilized for special youth hunts during dove season and may have restricted access during those activities. Hunting restrictions are by posted notice.
