Marc-Antoine Charpentier's La Descente d'Orphee aux Enfers and La Couronne de Fleurs
Presented by Rockport Music at Shalin Liu Performance Center
June 17, 2013
With an international reputation for groundbreaking work reviving Baroque opera masterpieces, the Boston Early Music Festival brings the glamorous world of Baroque opera to life, complete with an internationally-acclaimed cast of operatic stars, the Grammy-nominated Boston Early Music Festival orchestra, lavish period sets and costumes, astonishing special effects, and fantastic Baroque dance. The BEMF presents a double-bill of Charpentier's two stunning works.
The tragic La Descente d'Orphée aux Enfers tells the famous story of Orphée who decends into the underworld to rescue his beloved Euridice using his musical charms. La Couronne de Fleurs, based on a text by Molière, depicts a musical contest in tribute to Louis XIV as shepherds vie for a crown of flowers from the goddess Flora for the most beautiful and eloquent aria. These miniature masterpieces showcase one of the great composers of the French Baroque.

How many sheets are there of each color?
Are these just foil wrappers, or is there paper on the backside
If you use them for caramels, could you dust the paper with powdered sugar or something other than flour?
Best Answer: I would dust them with a little powdered sugar- only on the bottom of the caramel you don't want it to out do the candy. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you have fun with your project.

Humor is the best medicine, and nothing should be off limits for joking. Anybody who really has a problem with Godzilla jokes has a problem with life. And no I don't really buy the argument that "if you had family there you wouldn't think it's funny" I do have family and friends there (Brothers Fiance and two guys I've known for quite a while) and I still think it's hella funny.
Also lets hope disclosure doesn't happen in Japan or else well be dealing with the likes of Mothra pretty soon too ... dun dun duuuun.

An M.B.A. With Savoir Faire
At the beginning of April, C. Todd Lombardo will leave his $115,000-a-year job as a marketing manager and board a plane bound for Madrid. He'll be joining the ranks of a growing number of Americans opting to earn their M.B.A.s on foreign soil as a student at Instituto de Empresa Business School.
Read More
For students like Mr. Lombardo, an M.B.A. from a European school is particularly appealing in this current economic climate. For one, European schools typically offer an alternative M.B.A. program that is shorter -- between 10 and 16 months -- than the 21-month programs in the U.S. While they don't promise long-term shelter from a weak job market, the condensed format means less tuition to pay. "When you compare it dime-for-dime…you are getting an M.B.A. degree for half the cost," says Mr. Lombardo, whose 13-month program will cost 48,000 euros, or about $62,500, as compared to upward of $90,000 at a top tier two-year U.S. program. Some overseas programs cost even less.
It isn't just price but access to a wider job market that has Americans going abroad for their M.B.A. At INSEAD, headquartered in Fontainebleau, France, 80% of the school's M.B.A.s spend time on the school's Singapore campus. And the school has an executive education and research center in Abu Dhabi. Combined, the global campuses give students a network of contacts in Asia and the Middle East they might not have access to otherwise. This year, U.S. students outnumber all other nationalities for the first time at INSEAD, and that number may grow. "Americans are more interested now in experiencing the rest of the world," says Frank Brown, the school's dean. "The job market isn't great anywhere, but it's relatively better in Asia and the Middle East."
What's more, many see leaving the U.S. for business school as a way to stand out in a competitive post-MBA job market packed with a glut of U.S. business-school graduates. "Students think to themselves, 'How do I internationalize myself?'" says Christopher McKenna, M.B.A. program director at Oxford University's Said [it's Saïd w/accent on i] Business School. "One signal of that to employers is that you are willing to get your degree in another country."
And at a time when careers in finance are floundering, European business schools see a former weakness as an advantage: They have traditionally attracted fewer finance and consulting recruiters compared with U.S. programs. Stronger job placement in manufacturing, technology and consumer goods is adding to the appeal of a European M.B.A. At IE, for example, only 20% of students end up in finance as compared with 45% of Harvard Business School's latest graduating class. At some U.S. schools, up to 60% of students end up in finance.
"Your conventional model of going to a U.S. business school to get a U.S. M.B.A. to then get a U.S. consulting position in a U.S. firm is being challenged right now on all fronts," says David Bach, associate dean of the M.B.A. Program at IE.
European M.B.A. programs are taking advantage of the surge in interest, stepping up recruiting efforts stateside. This week, Anna Farrus, admissions manager at Oxford, has back-to-back appointments with prospective M.B.A. students in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and New York, where she will meet individually with candidates to answer questions and critique résumés. While time consuming, this individualized attention is an approach recruiters find particularly effective when soliciting American applicants. Oxford has interviewed 60% more applications from Americans in its first two admission rounds compared with last year.
And at IMD in Lausanne, Switzerland, the admissions office is aggressively recruiting from a database of more than 1,000 prospective U.S. students, a list derived from contact information collected at the school's Web site and recruiting events. The school is reaching out to candidates on an individual basis and connecting them with local alumni. Jodie Roussell, who started in the IMD M.B.A. program in January, learned about IMD when she was invited to a faculty lecture a few years ago. Meeting and talking with alumni made the idea of going abroad for an M.B.A. appealing, she says, as did the chance to step outside the North American business perspective. "The financial crisis has changed the playing field," Ms. Roussell says.

Every enterprise evolves continuously, driven by changing needs or new opportunities. Most often this happens gradually, with small adjustments to strategy, organization, processes, or infrastructure. But sometimes enterprises need to go beyond minor fixes and transform themselves, in response to a disruptive event or dramatically changing circumstances—a merger, for example, or a new competitor. In this book, enterprise architecting experts Deborah Nightingale and Donna Rhodes offer a framework for enterprise transformation.
Breakthroughs in medical science, innovations in medical technologies, and improvements in clinical practices occur today at an increasingly rapid rate. Yet because of a fragmented healthcare delivery system, many Americans are unable to benefit from these developments. How can we design a system that can provide high-quality, affordable healthcare for everyone? In this book, William Rouse and Nicoleta Serban introduce concepts, principles, models, and methods for understanding, and improving, healthcare delivery.
Urbanization and globalization have shaped the last hundred years. These two dominant trends are mutually reinforcing: globalization links countries through the networked communications of urban hubs. The urban population now generates more than eighty percent of global GDP. Cities account for enormous flows of energy and materials—inflows of goods and services and outflows of waste. Thus urban environmental management critically affects global sustainability.
Over the last several thousand years of human life on Earth, agricultural settlements became urban cores, and these regional settlements became tightly connected through infrastructures transporting people, materials, and information. This global network of urban systems, including ecosystems, is the anthroposphere; the physical flows and stocks of matter and energy within it form its metabolism. This book offers an overview of the metabolism of the anthroposphere, with an emphasis on the design of metabolic systems.
As Apollo 11's Lunar Module descended toward the moon under automatic control, a program alarm in the guidance computer's software nearly caused a mission abort. Neil Armstrong responded by switching off the automatic mode and taking direct control. He stopped monitoring the computer and began flying the spacecraft, relying on skill to land it and earning praise for a triumph of human over machine. In Digital Apollo, engineer-historian David Mindell takes this famous moment as a starting point for an exploration of the relationship between humans and computers in the Apollo program.
Project teams can improve results by recognizing that the future is inevitably uncertain and that by creating flexible designs they can adapt to eventualities. This approach enables them to take advantage of new opportunities and avoid harmful losses. Designers of complex, long-lasting projects—such as communication networks, power plants, or hospitals—must learn to abandon fixed specifications and narrow forecasts. They need to avoid the "flaw of averages," the conceptual pitfall that traps so many designs in underperformance.

Re: Parking for Amtrak
Did they suggest underground at Cox or at a surface lot?
The Amtrak station is on the road that runs down the east side of the convention center. There is an entrance to the underground garage on that side, so it's not at all a far walk. I think that there are surface lots on the other side of the convention center, so that's why I asked.
This area is just across the tracks from the Bricktown area, where there is the minor league baseball park and many restaurants. At night, there is not a lot of pedestrian traffic on the road in front of the Amtrak station, but there are plenty of people nearby either at the hotels north of the convention center or across the rail line in Bricktown. The rail line is elevated, so you'd have to walk through an underpass to get to Bricktown, so you'll feel sort of isolated from it, but it's not far away in terms of steps.
My question would be what are the hours of the underground parking at the convention center? Would there be a cashier on duty to let you out?

Re: Parking for Amtrak
Thanks for the tips. I will check on the times for access. What are decent (not overpriced) hotels near there?

Re: Parking for Amtrak
I don't know what is overpriced to you, but I have stayed at the Renaissance Oklahoma City Convention Center Hotel which is immediately north (across the street) from the Convention Center. It's not cheap, which is what you would expect from an upscale business hotel next to the convention center; but for convention attendees, it couldn't be more convenient.
Otherwise, in Oklahoma City, we stay 5 miles north of downtown at the Waterford Marriott Hotel. It is in the middle of a very high end residential neighborhood, and happens to be near a quilt store that my wife likes. But it is also not cheap (although cheaper than the downtown hotel), and may be much nicer than you require...

Integral Geometry of Tensor Fields
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreIntegral geometry can be defined as determining some function or a more general quantity, which is defined on a manifold, given its integrals over submanifolds or a prescribed class. In this book, only integral geometry problems are considered for which the submanifolds are one-dimensional. The book deals with integral geometry of symmetric tensor fields. This section of integral geometry can be considered as the mathematical basis for tomography or anisotropic media whose interaction with sounding radiation depends essentially on the direction in which the latter propagates. The main mathematical objects tackled have been give the term "ray transform", which refers mainly to optical and seismic rays rather than to X-rays. This book should be of interest to mathematicians, engineers, computer scientists and physicists who are woking in the fields of light-conductor technology, plasma physics tomography and liquid crystals. less

Thanks to votersMarch 16,2013
Thanks to voters
This letter is written to the towns in our service area which approved an appropriation to our organization, RSVP, at the annual town meeting. We are extremely appreciative of your positive vote, especially at a time when towns are being squeezed financially from many sides.
While you may know that the appropriation was approved, you may not know that we made a commitment over 12 years ago to never ask our town partners for any increases. We have honored that commitment, even though our other funding pots have decreased by over 20 percent for each of the last two years.
The town funds act as a base for some of our other funds. They are important in our total effort, but we dont see it as a way to make up ground when other funds go away. Thank you for your continued support.
If you are interested in volunteering, you can contact us through our website at www.volunteervt.com, or call 802-828-4770 and we will direct you to the correct individual. Thank you.

Punjab Kesari
Punjab Kesari Group is a Hindi-language newspaper published from many centres in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh and Delhi in India. It is owned by the Punjab Kesari group (The Hindsamachar Ltd.). It is one of the four newspapers started by the group; the other two are Hind Samachar in Urdu and Jagbani in Punjabi languages and Navodaya Times in Hindi languages from Delhi ( NCR ).
The newspaper was established by Lala Jagat Narain and later on his elder son Romesh Chander took over the reins. However, during the days of terrorism in Punjab, both were assassinated, in 1981 and 1984 respectively.[1]

Crash.Net F1 News
Tost: Loeb could've been '3 or 4 seconds' off F1 pace
26 October 2009
Record-breaking multiple World Rally Champion Sébastien Loeb avoided the potential ignominy of running 'between three and four seconds' off the pace in F1 had he made his competitive single-seater debut in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this coming weekend, reckons Scuderia Toro Rosso team principal Franz Tost.
The 'will-he, won't-he' saga of Loeb's bow for the Red Bull 'junior' outfit in the inaugural grand prix to be held in the capital of the United Arab Emirates had rumbled on for some time prior to the revelation late last week that the Citroën star – who in defeating Ford rival Mikko Hirvonen, clinched an incredible sixth straight drivers' crown in the World Rally Championship on the Rally of Great Britain at the weekend – had failed in his bid to be issued with a superlicence by F1 governing body the FIA [see separate story –
click here
That drew a line under the episode, for now at least, but despite the enthusiasm of Loeb's sponsor Red Bull for the coup – what would have undeniably been a publicity dream – Tost has admitted his relief that the eventuality never actually materialised, acknowledging that he would naturally have acquiesced with Dietrich Mateschitz's wishes, but arguing that in the absence of a serious testing stint of around 15,000km ahead of the race, the idea would have made 'little sense' from a 'sporting point-of-view'.
"If Red Bull wanted something like that for marketing reasons, then it would of course have been done," the Austrian told German magazine
Auto Motor und Sport
, "[but] the competition in F1 is higher than ever before. At worst, Loeb would have been between three and four seconds behind.
"He knows how to drive a car – you don't become rally world champion six times if you don't – but [in F1] the last second is the most difficult, which is something [multiple MotoGP World champion] Valentino Rossi realised as well."
Both Giancarlo Fisichella – following his late-season switch from Force India to Ferrari in-place of the recovering Felipe Massa – and hapless countryman Luca Badoer can no doubt vouch for that, with neither having been able to gain any testing experience of their new mounts ahead of their competitive appearances. The consequences for the former have been disappointing, for the latter disastrous.

Good Points
Reliability (in spite of the bad press!)
Good drive
Bad Points
It's more a car for "her" than "him", I think
Wing mirrors don't fold! We've had to have 4 new ones (our son lives in a very narrow street)
General Comments
We've had our Landrover Freelander SUV for nearly four years. Probably only bought it because (a) we got a good deal (my Boss was moving to Aust and wanted a quick sale) and (b) couldn't affored a newish Discovery. It's time for a change and, in spite of being Land Rover people (we still have an 11 year old Discovery "workhorse") we've just traded it in for a Honda CRV. Watch for the Honda CRV review in the next couple of weeks :-)
Overall, we have no complaints about the Freelander. "Her" loves it; "Him" prefers Discovery. C'est la vie!

"What it looks like is, the mercury that was already there in the aquifer or sand is being mined out when the groundwater goes anoxic," said Lamborg. Mercury that has been stored in the ground for several thousands of years is being drawn out and is now on the move.
Along the Ashumet Valley, a 3-kilometer depression between the towns of Falmouth, Sandwich, and Mashpee, Mass., mercury continues to accumulate and move downstream in a plume ending in Green Pond in East Falmouth.
According to Lamborg, it's a community-wide problem. Because the soil on Cape Cod is sandy, waste dumped into the ground disappears quickly. Although it may seem out of sight and out of mind, the contaminants such as mercury accumulate and resurface in the ponds and ocean.
"This is just one really big example, but it's happening in a small way through everybody's backyard septic system, which leaches a little bit of mercury out of the aquifer and accumulates. You don't need a really big industrial scale thing for this to happen. It's happening everywhere," Lamborg said.
"These findings should help guide future studies evaluating potential groundwater contamination with mercury," said Doug Kent, a U.S. Geological Survey hydrologist, who collaborated on this research.

I recorded this on a road side one night just south of Lajamanu in northern Tanami Desert in Australia. I was hoping to get the sound of the night air with crickets chirping etc. But a strange thing happened, there was a bird awake, chirping late into the night. I kind of liked it.
Very well done, truly captures the atmosphere of that environment.
Good job, thank you.
Nice work. Your contribution is appreciated.

Sandra Bullock has declined "Millionaire Matchmaker" Patti Stanger's offer to help the actress find a beau, TooFab has learned.
Stanger tells TooFab that she approached Bullock last week at Soho House in Los Angeles, when she spotted the Academy Award-winning actress having dinner with Ryan Reynolds. Stanger offered to help Bullock find a soulmate, but she declined, telling Stanger, "I'm good now," according to the "Millionaire Matchmaker" star.
According to Stanger, Bullock's ideal beau should be "attractive, tall, rugged, and preferably with more money than her." Top of Stanger's list are former athletes, entrepreneurs and hoteliers; she warns that Bullock should steer away from actors.
Stanger says she approached Bullock and Reynolds because she wanted to chat with the hunky actor about wife Scarlett Johansson's recent parody of her on "Saturday Night Live."

APC's Latest Annual Report: 2003 - The year technology policy became social policy
In spite of the wide range of activities that took place during last year, for APC, 2003 is memorable for one particular process that galvanised our efforts – the World Summit on the Information Society which took place in Geneva in December 2003. WSIS was a watershed in public participation as information and communications policy shifted from the obscure world of techno-jargon to be recognised as social policy that affects everyone. From APC's perspective as a network of 'social techies' this was a major break-through.
APC'S latest annual report includes APC's advocacy work for WSIS and other major highlights as well as achievements from APC members on five continents building of a better world for all through technology. Find out more about it and then download the full report!

i know someone will think i'm stupid for doing this but i feel like reviving this old topic, but as for this discussion the only thing i read about for grandia and lunar is that the new grandia will be an online game for the PS3 (I wish they would make a direct sequel to grandia 1 though) and i read somewhere that there might be another lunar game for the ds i think it said something about it being a sequel to lunar dragon song and based on the four legendary heroes on the first lunar like dyne, ghaleon and so on, i also believe that the creator did mention a possibility of lunar 3 but i don't think any of those games will be for the 360. i just hope they make a lunar 3 and a good grandia game.

NSW Transport Is Now Selling Smart Wallets For Opal Cards
So you've just received your shiny new Opal card, granting you access to NSW's fancy electronic ticketing system. You shove the card into your regular wallet or purse… but something's not right. It's simply not stylish or convenient enough! Whatever shall you do to escape this quandary of practical fashion? NSW Transport, fortunately, has the answer — an Opal smart wallet you can stick on the back of your phone.
The Ad For Sydney's Contactless Public Transport Card Is The Weirdest Thing You'll Watch Today
New South Wales has been trying to get its head around the whole contactless travel card thing for a while now, and with the new Opal system, it looks like it's on to a winner. What I'm still trying to wrap my head around is the first ad for the Opal card. Brace yourselves.
Incredible Space Stone Seems Like It Has A Nebula Trapped Inside
Sydney's Opal Card Rollout Continues Out West
Just as Transport NSW promised last year, the Opal card project is moving along at a rapid clip. As of today, Opal card readers have been installed in 120 train stations around the Sydney metropolitan network; the most recent rollout means the tap-on, tap-off system now extends from Casula in the south, to Wyong in the north, to Richmond and Emu Plains out west.
The 7-Inch HP TouchPad You'll Never Be Able To Buy
We'd heard about it half a year ago, and now here it is in the grainy, blurry flesh: HP's 7-inch WebOS tablet that was dead before it ever left the front door. Luckily, it looks pretty mediocre!
Leak: Full Specs For HP's 9.7-inch Topaz webOS Tablet
Though we've already had a chance to see what they might look like, a new wave of leaks from PreCentral suggest that HP's 9.7-inch webOS tablet will have a 1.2GHz processor, 512MB of RAM and wireless docking features like whoa.
Unconfirmed: First Look At The webOS Tablet We've Been Waiting For
Looks like we didn't have to wait until February 9 after all to see HP's webOS tablet. Engadget has what are reportedly the first pictures of the dark horse tablets that may finally step up to the iPad. And details.
HTC Touch HD, Touch 3G and Touch Viva Hands-On Impressions
We got hands on time with the HTC Touch 3G, Touch Viva and most importantly, the Touch HD last week at CTIA. Although we didn't get to delve deep into its Windows Mobile guts, we did spend enough time fiddling with the TouchFLO interface up top that we know how it'll feel for you on a day-to-day basis. You'll be pleased.
Actual HTC Opal Spyshots Surface (Touch's Twin)
The Touch-like HTC Opal we saw renderings of earlier this week looks like it definitely exists, according to these leaked shots. Yeah, if you're having a hard time seeing a difference from the original Touch, so are we. We saw some specs too that indicate it's very similar (still no 3G, same processor), but here it is, in the wild. The Touch HD we saw definitely still holds the title of HTC leak-of-the-week, though, and if anything's going to be a true successor to the original Touch, it's that, not the Opal. Another shot post-jump. [Pocketpt.net via Boy Genius]

Built-in ovens: How we test built-in ovens
We've rigorously tested a range of big-brand built-in ovens, including single ovens and double ovens, both gas and electric. If you choose one of our Best Buys, you can be sure that you'll be getting a great model that you can rely on to cook your food beautifully, whether it be a roast or cakes.
Our tests show that some ovens are much quicker at heating up than others, but a crucial difference is how well they keep to the temperature stated on the dial. The poorest wildly overshoot the mark by up to 30°C, while the best stick closely to the set temperature.
Go straight to our built-in oven reviews to discover the best and the worst models.
Our reviews will answer your key questions about built-in ovens:
- How much will I be able to fit in the oven?
- How quickly will the oven heat up?
- Will it accurately remain at the temperature on the dial?
- Will the heat spread evenly throughout the oven?
- How well will it grill my food?
- How easy is it to use and how much will it cost to run?

Video guide: what makes a Best Buy built-in oven
Watch our video to see why a Best Buy built-in oven will make a real difference to you.
How much will I be able to fit in the oven?
The actual, usable capacity of your oven can be different from what the manufacturer claims. So we use large fake turkeys, chickens and roast beef joints on roasting trays, along with another tray of roast potatoes, to find out what you can actually fit inside your oven. For double ovens we test both the main and top ovens.
We only measure the space that you will actually be able to use inside an oven. We measure the internal width from side to side, and the depth from the inside of the door to the back of the oven. But we only measure the height from the top of the lowest shelf to 3cm from the top of the oven. We don't include the space beneath the lowest shelf, which manufacturers often do.
How quickly will the oven heat up?
We set each oven to heat to high and low temperatures, and we record how long they take to reach these targets. Heat settings for conventional electric and gas ovens are 180°C and 200°C. For fan-assisted electric ovens, the settings are 150°C and 180°C.
The best ovens take less than four minutes to heat up to 180°C, while the poorest ones will keep you waiting for nearly three times as long.
Will it accurately remain at the temperature on the dial?
We record how accurately an oven sticks to the temperature it says it's at. Best Buys stay very close to the set temperatures, but the least accurate ovens can overheat by more than 30°C. This is enough to result in burnt food.
Will the heat spread evenly throughout the oven?
We use baking trays covered with 10mm-wide strips of shortbread to reveal just how effective ovens are at spreading heat right around the oven. The colour of the shortbread after cooking shows how evenly the oven distributes heat across each oven tray. The best ovens we've tested deliver heat evenly across the shortbread, but the worst leave some areas unbrowned and other parts burnt.
In each oven we also bake a large sponge cake and measure how well and evenly the cake rises, and how evenly the cake is browned.
How well will it grill my food?
We cover each grill pan in white crustless bread to see how well and how far and evenly the heat spreads. The best grills we've tested can effectively heat more than 90% of the grill pan.
The worst will struggle to heat anything more than the area directly beneath the element, or around 40%.
How easy is it to use and how much will it cost to run?
We use an independent panel to assess how easy each oven is to use, including looking at how straightforward it is to set the ovens and grills, how clear the markings are and how easy it is to check up on food while it is cooking.
To see how much the oven will cost to run, we test each model's energy efficiency by simulating roasting a whole chicken, which we do by heating 2kg of bricks in the main oven for 1hr 40 mins. Electric conventional ovens are set to 200ºC, electric fan ovens are set to 170ºC and gas ovens at gas mark 6. We record the amount of energy each oven uses while cooking, and we turn this into a score based on the running costs for each model.
Should I buy it?
76%The score a built-in oven needs to earn to be a Which? Best Buy
When awarding a score to an oven, we place greater emphasis on its crucial functions: how well it cooks food, both in the oven and the grill (oven performance is more heavily weighted). However, we know that ease of use, ease of cleaning and energy efficiency are also important to you, so we take these into account too.
The complete score breakdown looks like this:
- Performance................. 60%
- Ease of use................... 20%
- Energy efficiency......... 10%
- Ease of cleaning........... 10%
In order to become a Best Buy, an oven needs to score 76% or above. If an oven does poorly and scores less than 40%, we suggest you steer clear of it and we highlight it as a Don't Buy.
