You need a prescription. Just tell your Dr. that you're a beekeeper and want one for emergencies. I asked a friend who's a Dr. so I didn't have to pay for an office visit or anything. I don't recall how much it cost, though, I think my insurance covered it. My prescription came with 2 pens and a trainer pen.

Ok, there seems to be alot of questions about Epi pens but only guesses as to the answers. I am an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician). I will try to clear up a few of the facts.
*** An Epi Pen is a preloaded and premeasured one dose syringe that contains the prescription drug Epinephrine and is usually used in the treatment for anaphylactic shock ***
1. If you do not know how or exactly when to use and Epi Pen.... THEN DON'T!!!! You can KILL someone by using it incorrectly! I would think a responsible doctor would cover the use of an Epi Pen for at least 15 minutes before writting a prescription for one.
2. Epi Pens do NOTHING to help with the pain at the site of a bee sting.
3. Epi Pens are to only be used when:
a. A person has an allergy to something. (like a bee sting)
b. The person is exposed to the allergen (like a bee sting)
c. The persons allergic reaction to the allergen results in anaphylactic shock. (Anaphylactic shock can be characterized as a severe allergic reaction caused by hystamine produced in the body that results in many adverse conditions... one of reactions is a swelling of the throat causing a partial to complete blockage of air passage.)
4. Epinephrine does a few different things... in the treatment for anaphylactic shock two of the most important things are that it is a bronchodilator (opens up the bronchi in the lungs- helps you breath easier) and that it is a vasoconstrictor (narrows/constricts/shrinks the blood vessels and arteries). These help to lessen or eliminate the swelling in the throat that can cause airway blockage and lead to death.
I hope this helps clear up some of the confussion about Epi Pens. I really didn't know that bee keepers were ever required to have or use an Epi Pen unless they or a member of their family had a severe allergic reaction to bee stings. This kind of amazes me, because there should be at least a minimal amount of training on how and when to use them before someone gets one. By most of the comments by the people that say that they had Epi Pens, it looks like either there was no training given, or the information was forgotten.
**** The most important thing to remember is that if you have a SEVERE allergic reaction to a bee sting (anaphylactic shock)... CALL 911 immediately! Epi Pens don't always work! Actually, they don't work alot of the time! (some medications block the effects of the Epinephrine). EMS can still save a life when the Epi Pen doesn't work. Even when it does work... the symptoms can still return in as little as 5 minutes. Make sure your Emergency Services are on the scene! ****

Great post with very valid points. Also, welcome to the new forum - not sure if you visited befor, but this is day one of our more secure and full-featured forum software.
I keep a Bee Sting Kit, a bit less powered than a full epi-pen with a small syringe but also the tablets, luckily I have had 2 expire and maintain a valid 3rd and indeed my doctor was informative in the use, he literally went over the instructions with me.
I know being informed can always save lives, hopefully your post will inspire more people to research the epi-pen, if not through a dioctor, then through the directions or the web. Welcome aboard.

I always keep a fresh Epi Pen in the house. I have many friends and three I know of are very allergic. Some don't have a clue. It's better to have an Epi Pen,and not use it, then to need one, and not have it.

They aren't required to have one. I've never even seen one.

At a health and safety workshop I raised the question of having an epi-pen available should a member of the general public exhibit an allergic reaction while on our premises. The problem seems to one of liability. Each person should be responsible for carrying their own epi-pen. However it is well documented that a person who has never had a reaction to stings, all of a sudden has a sever one and goes into shock.
As a result of our becoming such a litigious society at times it seems like we have shot ourselves in the foot

In NJ we have a waver-law for acute rescue. It works something like this. Let's say a man's car is on fire, a passerby sees it and has no choice but to bust out the other man's window to get him out of the car. In the process, glass from the window cuts the trapped man and he needs 100 stitches after he is pulled out, he can not sue the recuer because of his valliant attempt to save the man's life.
This also goes for broken ribs when CPR is given, etc. The same law though enforces that EMTs, doctors and other medically trained people are REQUIRED to assist in any accident they stumble across in their travels, or IF FOUND OUT they did nothing, they are liable for litigation.
As a check and balance, I think it is a good law. It allows AND forces people to be humane to others without fear of being sued - unless of course they are the fleeing EMT or doctor who turns his head because he has a dinner party to go to, if someone spots that person driving pass the accident, he is in very big trouble. And morally, I agree with this law.

Thanks to all. Like they say: "One is never too old to learn!"
This sure applies in my case...
I would add that I keep a few hives at my summer home by the lake
and most if not all neighbours are "cityslickers." So, last spring I mentioned to my doctor on my monthly visit that I would perhaps need an Epi-pen just in case.
Without a word spoken about it, I than proceeded to the Drug store in there it was: In the bag with my other "dope," there were two Epi-pens. . . .
Didn't/don't have a clue how to use them!?
Wife told me to make sure to jab it in the muscle!?
So, that is my training. After reading this, I sure hope - I don't have to use it. . . . .

In Washington state we have a similar law. We call it the "Good Samaratin Protection Act." I you want liability use a epi pen when it's not necessary. The unnecessary administratiion of a medication by a non-licensed person is a suit waiting to happen. I believe it falls under the heading of practicing medicine without a license.
I believe it is better to do without one and rely on 911 as that is a logical and responsible course of action that will negate liability.

ya, i don't think you'd want to have the thing and not know how to use it. it's not worth the time of a whole class, but some instruction is needed.
as for EMT...that's a great idea if you live where they will respond quickly. yes, do call them right away.
i do stuff with red cross and in all the classes, they teach first aid and CPR as if you live in a city and could expect a response time of 3 minutes or so. out here, i know i'll be lucky to get a vet, or volunteer fire person, or any help in less that 1/2 an hour. someone could get here in 15 min. if they were sitting in the station and had nothing else to do.
so....i guess it depends on where you are. for me, i need to be able to take care of anything that might happen here because i will be a long time getting help.

This one's obviously a bit of a conundrum; I mean now that I know what an epi pen is and what it can possibly do I suspect i couldn't live with myself if a loved one or a neighbor was to perish (due to a sting) for the lack of one on hand. On the other hand I've seen too many hideous accidents result from improper/unproffessional handling of medications by self-styled "experts" in the equestrian world to tempt me in that direction.
I'd be curious to see a statistic on fatalities from bee stings by year. Maybe something along the line of lightning fatalities? I really don't know. Interesting subject though.

I figure the Epi-pen is WAY more dangerous than the bees...

There is no way to seperate "bee stings" from "wasp stings" in the statistics, but, before AHB the numbers per year were in the single digits. It's now (because of AHB) made it to the double digits. But every year somewhere between 45,000 and 50,000 people die in car accidents. Your horses (and mine) are far more dangerous, no matter how gentle they are.

good point about the horses! one of the magazines had a breakdown of beekeeper deaths due to stings. don't remember which one. maybe someone still has it?

I have two on hand, in the house but easily gotten to. One an adult dose and one a child's dose. We have a lot of visitors and I just feel better knowing that if someone does go into shock and can't breathe after a sting (from bees or anything else) that we can treat while waiting for the rescue squad.
On another note, it's amazing how many people say they're "allergic" to beestings. When asked what their allergic reaction is, they invariably say that the area stung swells and gets itchy following the sting! That, of course, is the normal, non-allergic reaction to a bee sting.
In the process of keeping bees, by the way, I have discovered that my raw honey is absolutely the best treatment for cuts and scrapes ever. It beats bacitracin out hands down. I've had cuts that wouldn't heal that, when treated with my honey, scabbed over in 24 hours.
Gotta love the bees,

I know this is an old thread, but I was searching out where to get stingz kits or Epipen and I came across you all.
Yesterday, I was up in the North Back woods, and I do mean back woods and we went to some secret Portage lakes that you had to carry your boats and track through the bush, maybe 70 yards from accessible lake to no accessible. The fish were outstanding. While this is a bee site, I am sure bee people fish. The avg Keeper Sunfish/Blue Gill were going 3/4 pound and when the Crappie Started about 4:30, in the exact same water that we fished for hours with nothing but Sunnies and bass, they craps were no less than a 1lb a piece. As some Thunderheads were rolling in, and us needing to get two john boats and a ton of gear for 7 people back through the woods to our powered boats, the let go. So we stayed under the trees and small boats for it to let up. Something bit me, I did not feel it, we were bit by horse flies and mosquitos all day. My mouth and lips were swollen and I did not feel a bit. I am on Humira, an immunio suppresent, have been for two years, but have not been in the back woods like that since I was a kid in the Florida Everglades. I have been bit by more bees than I care to think about as a young kid, intentionlly playing with them. Well, yesterday, my body at almost 50 years old said Enough is enough. We were 95 miles on 30 mph winding roads to the nearest town of anything open at now, 6pm. My wife stopped at just about every small place we could and found a bar and a lady sent some men to her house to get me some benydril. I think it probably saved my life, to be honest and not dramatic. I quickly swallowed 3 caps, praying that the vomiting would supside long enough for them to dissolve. From my Sturnum and still a bit today to my throat, I was a mess. To Top it off, I already have a screwed airway, as I am on bi-pap for Sleep Apenea and my pressures are 17/12 for those that understand that, so you can imagine. Other than my military time in combat, I do not think anything has ever scared me like that. I really thought I was going to die. Seeing all those things that I said I would do that I have never done. Like your life flashing in front of your face and all I could think about was my 18 month old grandchild, I hope just the first of many.
Two things came to my realization yesterday and last night. NEVER be without at least benedryl in my boat at all times, truck and ever car I own now, as well as a Stingz kit or epipen or many. In my first Iraq visit in the early 90s, we came across some comatminants and we used, were instructed to use our pens. I did not need too, I had no reactions, some did and one died. Surely from the powerful injections we had with us. The second thing I realized, is I am retiring for good. I have been fortunate enough if we live NORMAL lives, we are good for a long time, as we have been fortunate, after my military service in business..
It is hard for a man like me, on his own since he was 16 to admit he was scared. I was scared because we were so far out in the woods, I thought, well, what a beautiful place to die and spread my ashes right where I fall.
So, it is a prescription, I thought maybe I could go into Mills Fleet Farm and buy it. Good to know, it will be something I will have in all vehicles for my family and others, just like I have a wallet.
Thanks for the great post all and EMT..

Glad to hear you are okay now. That must have been very scary. You are definitely someone who should be carrying an epi-pen at all times.
Strange that you never felt getting bit, I wonder what it was.

My two dogs didn't like the taste, although one would eat them when they were submerged in bacon grease. The other would still pick it out and refuse to eat it! Caused the runs a bit, will not reorder, but may work for your dog(s).

It's hard to imagine Alabama was ever the frontier. But as Colonial America itched to expand, this was the "Old Southwest": a rough country of pioneers, Indians and cheap land for those willing to pull up stakes from more-civilized places such as Virginia and the Carolinas. From 1810 to 1820, "Alabama fever" took the population from 9,000 to 144,000. "There is no question that this fever is contagious," warned a North Carolina congressman in 1817, "for as soon as one neighbor visits another who has just returned from Alabama he immediately discovers the same symptoms which are exhibited by the one who has seen alluring Alabama."
Others had previously discovered "alluring Alabama," of course. The Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw and Creek tribes were already there when the French established the first permanent white settlement in 1702, near today's Mobile. Colonial censuses of these French settlements taken in 1706, 1721 and 1725 were published in the Deep South Genealogical Quarterly (volume 1, issues 1, 2 and 3), available at the Family History Library (FHL) <www.familysearch.org> and other large genealogical libraries. Over the next century, Alabama would be variously claimed by France, England, Spain (which also took several Mobile censuses you can get from the FHL) and neighboring Georgia.

Eichler Earns Player of the Week Honors
By: Jill Wunrow (@JillWunrow)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - For the first time in her career Green Bay (4-1) women's basketball senior Sarah Eichler (Grafton, Wis.) has been named Horizon League Player of the Week after leading the Phoenix to a 2-1 finish at the Cancun Challenge held November 22-24 in Cancun, Mexico.
"Sarah plays hard all the time, is an all-effort kid and in my mind deserves a lot of awards that she doesn't get recognized for," said Green Bay head coach Kevin Borseth. "I'm really glad she's on our team."
Eichler led Green Bay in the Cancun Challenge averaging 17.3 points while shooting 73 percent from the free throw line. The 5-foot-11 forward poured in a career-high 26 points and career high five three pointers in 27 minutes of play in Green Bay's dominant 79-48 win over Richmond in its final game of the tournament. Eichler was also strong on the boards, averaging 5.3 per contest throughout the three games.
Averaging 33 minutes per contest, Eichler is second for the Phoenix in scoring with 16.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 65-percent shooting from the free throw line.
Known for her defensive play, Eichler has been working on becoming an all-around player, picking up right where she left off in postseason play in 2011-12. Eichler poured in four three pointers in the first round of the NCAA Tournament game against Iowa State after averaging 12.3 points and 5.7 rebounds in the Horizon League Championship.

Right here will be the release page for the new version of my Rapier Mikoto Mod. I've started working on it, nothing yet ready for release. Currently building upon the skin options, then going to be reworking the menu to be similar to my old build. Adding in more customization options.
What I'm looking for right now is suggestions. I am starting from scratch using rapier 4 as a base. Feel free to drop any ideas, whether features you've seen done in other places or any annoyances to be changed (I've just gotten rapier 4, but the lack of the power button at the top is on my own personal list of things to change.)

Young Professional
Born: 24/05/1993
Position: Centre midfield/right back
Nico has had quite some year. The versatile midfielder made his first-team debut in last season's Carling Cup victory over Bolton, featured in the FA Cup against Leeds and then found himself marking Manchester United winger Nani on his first appearance in the Premier League.
"My main focus was to just keep Nani quiet and get him down the line away from goal, and I thought I did alright," he said. "He's very tricky. When you think you might be able to get the ball, he's taken it and he's going. You have to be patient against some players like that and think of it two ways - either get tight and don't let him turn or be patient and not dive in.
"But overall I'm delighted at the moment, I can't be any happier. I've made my Premier League debut, played in the Carling Cup and the FA Cup so I can't complain."
Nico signed a contract extension in August, and while the offer of the new deal was good news, he is already motivated on securing the next. "What it means to me is that the manager has shown belief in me and it gives me even more time to show what I can do and work with the coaches and players here to improve even more to achieve a new contract with the Club I have always supported.
"The coaches are fantastic and their encouragement is invaluable, but there are top players around for me to learn from and take what I see in their game and adopt it into mine, or refine what I do having learnt from them."
The youngster has played for England at youth level, but is eligible to also play for Cyprus and China, as his father's family hail from the mediterranean island and his mother's heritage is Chinese. Nico is non-committal, "I haven't even thought about that," he explains: "It's not a decision to be made until I have to make it and to represent any of those countries that are close to me will be an honour."
Despite his China connection, Nico admits to knowing little about Asian football, aside from what he has seen at the Emirates and in training: "I have of course seen Ju Young Park and Ryo up close and both are very good technical players with lots of energy. From what I can see, Asian football is on the rise."

And Freedom For All
I saw the pictures of this kid he was a whole foot shorter than a standard chainlink gate. They were filming the kid and he kicked the gate open and went into his back yard not happy that all the idiots with cameras were asking him ,How do you feel. Well if some one shot you in the chest and about one inch above your wennie with a dart and knocked you on your butt how would you feel. Remember when you were a kid and the lid slammed down on mister winkie Ohhhhh shitttttt.Your tender at that age.
And Freedom For All
Why would a kid who is confronted by 6 cops not drop the glass and/or anything else he was holding?
Was in Minneapolis last weekend and this was in the news; a cop responded to a call with his trained dog a young naked man is running around in someones unoccupied house. The cop confronts the kid, the kid lunges toward the cop and the dog responds by clamping onto the kids scrotum. Dog lets go, kid loses a testicle, other cops are now on the scene and the kid keeps resisting/fighting them.
Cops arent always right, but they have the might. Why fight that?
And Freedom For All
I just talked to a friend who is in Key West he says the place is "sick" and that is not slang for cool. The big money is so parinoid they have to have everything secure and locked up so no one can spoil the paridise they have built for them and only them.The truth is I don''t care any more I am going to do as I please I will play it as close to the rules as I can but I am not going by the book. I don''t see how they think that a set of rules can work for such a diverse population that is totaly out of the question.And The kid they tazered did have a piece of broken glass from a picture frame to try and protect himself from six adults that had him cornered like a rabbit fighting off the dogs. The women officers who tazered him shot him in the chest and in his pelvic pubic bone both shots were uncalled for the chect shot could have been fatal to an adolecent.I saw the film of that I almost threw up . I was so outraged by the Nazi Bitches actions it was beyond words no matter what the child was small and they should have backed off and let him calm down.Had he had a gun I can see that kind of force but a piece of glass get some welding gloves and take the glass away from him or simply break the glass with a baton that,would have been my way but then I am not some hyped on steroids rookie cop.Oh there I go stereo typing them that makes me just like them except I did not rscially profile them.Geez they may come and drag me away for this under the homeland security act.Semper Fi
And Freedom For All
Finally got my vessel exchange for documentation forms off to the NVDC. The very helpful folks there said that is the policy of SC, that state does not require documented vessels have their state registration. I do not mind paying fees/taxes for state requirements, just that I do not and will not be living in Fl so don''t want to pay there. When my documentation is complete then I will register/title in SC so as not to be stateless. Good bye Fl. The Latsandatts.net bulletin board has people that are so angry in Fl and the way boaters/livaboards are being hassled. Makes the time frame for the long cruise come sooner and sooner...
And Freedom For All
Yes it is normal. What do you expect from a state that tazers 6 year old children with 50,000 volts. I lived in Florida for a few months. I moved because it''s a police state and I really didn''t feel safe there. They locked all the exit doors in my daughter''s middle school. The excuse was probably to keep the perverts out but what about if there is a fire? The place was like a prison. In the county next door a second grader got in a minor scuffle with his teacher. The police charged him and his name was published in the newspaper. The whole state is sick.
And Freedom For All
This discussion is going on some other boards also. Soaringwind3 where in AZ are you? I am at home in Az now (looking at the beautiful snow) but just returned from Fl and SC to get our boat a state registration. Thought if I went right to the SCDNR with my new SC address they would take my money but the lady said no, just need Documentation on this boat. I said that I wanted a state registration, she said no. I said then do I just choose a SC as my hailing port for Documentation, she said yes! Crazy. If I use AZ as my "hailing port" then don''t I owe sales tax to Az?
And Freedom For All
Your statement about any boat over 40 feet being required to be documented is not correct. The USCG regulation requires documentation for "any vessel of at least five net tons which engages in the fisheries on the navigable waters of the United States or in the Exclusive Economic Zone, Great Lakes trade, or coastwise trade..." Vessels used exclusively for recreation may be but are not required to be documented, and length is not an issue.
And Freedom For All
you do not have to have florida regitration for a documented boat.
we have a catalina 400 sailing out of bradenton/st pete florida.
That fish and game guy is full of crap and he knows it. He prolly did not get laid the night before.
Point in fact.. he did not have the authority to stop you period. Under federal law any boat over 40 feet is required to be documented. Anything under is a matter of personal choice. I am in the process of documenting my Ericson 27 so that i can take it out of the country with no hassle.
the feds [coasties] can legally board your boat at whim. The state guys have to have probably cause and if they harrass you they are walking on thin ice and they know it.
Call the Florida Fish and GAme commission and turn this jerk in.
I am sorry you had a bad experience. Not all of florida is like that.
good luck
And Freedom For All
DelmarRey adds to what I was trying to say but I get to excited or maybe its That NRA thing I''m not sure. This guy came on like a bad guy and acted kind of crazy asking bogus questions and laying out senarios like what if you bought the boat here and never left. But I did but what if you did not. Dumb ass questions to ask a person who is visiting,I mean well then I ether died while in Florida IE I never would leave again or I moved to that state and had a Florida Drivers lic. I do not think however that making up a battery of questions of what if is right or has any place but in an interogation. Then writing a warning ticket that I still have that has my wifes hight and weight her Louisiana DL number the boats name but no number from the documentationthe date and no proof of regestration in the comment box. Not to mention I cut the hell out of my heal when the Nazi ordered me to drop that anchor back down and a wire through the clevis caught my heal and cut it all the way across about an inch and as blood flowed he never said once would you like to go put something on that. That A HOLE should not wear a badge, my dad was a Highway Patrolman for many years and a detective in Miami and I don''t think he ever treated anyone that way but he did quit to become a trucker they were more honest he said.The problem is that the number of jerks that wear a badge is growing and they have started to make up the rules to suit them selfs.That is a freedom rights issue in my book they want you to play by the rules but if they think they can change it a little to make it easy for them to find a violation they will and if it was not in the book they cover it up by burying the truth in bull ****.Interputation of the law is for Judges and lawyers not law inforcement who are assigned to protect and serve the public. To many want to have compleat control over anyone they incounter rather than serve them.
And Freedom For All
What''s with the fish and game?
I had a similar experience over here in Puget Sound. These guys are stepping over the line as far as jurisdiction.
I motored my dinghy over to a fuel dock in a marina where I was a guest for a night. As I approached, a F & G official wanted to know where my registration numbers and sticker were. I told the guy he better go back and read the rules. Here in Wa. anything under 10'' and 10HP does not require registration. Never the less, I didn''t even finish docking because I had forgotten to bring a life jacket and I didn''t want him getting into that. So I just motored back to my vessel pissed as hell.
You give a guy a badge and a gun and they think they know everything. They need to stick to their own agenda and if they see a problem they should call in the PROPER authorities.
A few years ago there was a big stink here about a parks ranger giving a citation to a guy cutting firewood on his own property. When he tried to take it to court the official couldnt be found. He didn''t exist. Something fishy there!

BullsVision: Introductory Press Conference
Skip Holtz was hired as the University of South Florida's second head football coach on Jan. 14, 2010.
In his first season, Holtz promptly led the Bulls to their fifth consecutive eight-win season, making them one of just 15 teams nationally that had won at least eight games during that timespan and one of only 10 teams in BCS leagues to accomplish the feat. In addition, USF played in its sixth consecutive bowl game, a 31-26 victory over Clemson in the Meineke Car Care Bowl. At the time, USF was one of just six programs nationally that had reached postseason play in each year as a BCS league member. In addition, with the victory, USF was one of just four programs that had won three consecutive bowl games.
In 2010, USF accomplished numerous firsts under Holtz. The Bulls won at Cincinnati and at Louisville for the first time in program history and beat Rutgers in Tampa for the first time. In addition, USF traveled to Miami and defeated the Hurricanes in an overtime thriller, 23-20, marking the Bulls first win over Miami in program history.
The 2011 season showed major improvement on the field, if not in the record, as USF finished 5-7 thanks to numerous heartbreaking defeats. After starting 4-0, including a huge win at Notre Dame to open the season, the Bulls dropped six of their final seven games by a combined 28 points or 4.7 points per game. Included in those six losses were four 3-point defeats, three of which came on the final play of the game. USF was the only team in the nation that lost three games at the final gun.
Looking passed the wins and losses, the Bulls improved in virtually every statistical category, especially on offense. USF improved its national ranking in total offense 75 spots from 2010 to 2011, the largest jump of any school in the country. The biggest improvement came in the passing game, where USF improved by 85 yards per game. Only two teams saw a greater jump in the passing offense national rankings. In addition, the Bulls improved 39 spots in rushing offense. Defensively, the Bulls finished second nationally in TFL and fourth in sacks and in the top 40 in run defense, total defense and scoring defense.
Holtz came to USF after five seasons at East Carolina, where he won back-to-back Conference USA Championships in 2008 and '09 and finished with a 38-27 record. Holtz also spent five years as head coach at Connecticut, where he amassed a 34-23 record.
Holtz led ECU to unprecedented heights, including four-straight winning seasons, a quartet of bowl game appearances and the back-to-back league crowns.
A once-proud program, Holtz quickly revived the Pirates, which had stumbled to record just three wins in a 25-game period in the two-plus seasons prior to his arrival in 2005.
He promptly instilled a sense of pride, commitment, character and discipline into a Pirate team that went on to reward its loyal and passionate fan base with the school's first-ever run of four consecutive bowl invitations and the program's first four-year streak of winning seasons since the 1970s.
The drastic turnaround at ECU, which included a 7-6 finish in 2006, an 8-5 ledger in 2007, a 9-5 mark in 2008 and another nine-win campaign in 2009, coincided with dramatic school-record attendance increases at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium.
While the initial success in 2005 relied heavily on a wide-open offensive assault, it was a no-nonsense and fundamentally-sound defensive effort that launched the Pirates back into college football's competitive arena a year later.
Holtz followed by using a combination of both in 2007, offering a well-balanced offense and a run-stopping, ball-hawking defense to lead East Carolina to its highest Conference USA win total in school history at that time. The Pirates ended up just one victory shy of earning a berth in the league championship game, despite playing one of the toughest schedules in program history, which was loaded with four Bowl Championship Series members.
In addition to guiding ECU to its first postseason win since 2000 with a 41-38 victory over No. 24 Boise State in the Sheraton Hawai'i Bowl, Holtz fine-tuned the efforts of running back Chris Johnson, who was college football's national statistical champion in all-purpose yards. Johnson also became the program's second first-round draft choice (first since 1992) when the Tennessee Titans selected him with their initial pick in April, 2008. Johnson went on to be named the 2009 NFL Offensive Player of the Year.
In 2008, Holtz earned Conference USA Coach of the Year honors, while leading the Pirates to a spot in the Conference USA Championship game. ECU defeated Tulsa to claim the program's first conference title in 32 years, earning a bid to the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. During that season, Holtz led the Pirates to a No. 14 ranking in the polls and victories over No. 17 Virginia Tech and No. 8 West Virginia.
Holtz continued his success at East Carolina in 2009, leading the Pirates to a second consecutive Conference USA Championship. They became the first team in C-USA Championship game history to post consecutive victories.
Prior to his time in Greenville, Holtz spent six seasons at South Carolina. He wore several hats during his tenure with the Gamecocks, coaching the quarterbacks his first four seasons, before handling the tight ends in 2003 and then returning to guide the signal-callers in '04. He displayed his all-around abilities as a coach in working closely with the Gamecock offense in addition to handling a variety of duties as assistant head coach under his father, the legendary Lou Holtz.
While at South Carolina, Holtz was recognized as an Assistant Coach-of-the-Year in 2001 by the All-American Football Foundation. That year, the Gamecocks ranked second in the Southeastern Conference in rushing offense, and under Holtz's tutelage, senior Phil Petty went on to lead South Carolina to 17 victories in his last 23 starts, including back-to-back Outback Bowl wins over Ohio State in 2001 (24-7) and '02 (31-28).
Holtz came to South Carolina after a successful five-year stint as head coach at fellow BIG EAST school, Connecticut. While at UConn, he led the Huskies to their best season in school history, up to that point, in 1998 and was recognized as one of the top young coaching talents in the country.
Holtz has been credited for developing high-powered and prolific offenses throughout his coaching career. During his last season at Connecticut, he led the Huskies to a then-school-record 10 victories and an appearance in the quarterfinal round of the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs. His team ranked 11th nationally in scoring offense, averaging nearly 36 points per game.
During his five-year tenure as head coach at UConn, Holtz guided the Huskies' program to national top 25 rankings the last four seasons and unprecedented success in the school's 100-year football history, which provided a firm foundation for the school's eventual move to the FBS level in 2002.
The success Holtz earned on the field at Connecticut during his first head coaching tenure was matched by his involvement in the community as a successful speaker, clinician and humanitarian - often donating his time and effort to many charitable and educational organizations. He served as the honorary chairman for Camp Courant in Hartford for four consecutive years, helping fund-raising efforts to send more than 1,000 under-privileged area children to recreational and educational camps during the summer. Holtz was also actively involved with the American Diabetes Association, serving as an honorary chairman and member of the Board of Trustees for two years.
Holtz was honored in 1996 with the National Football Foundation Man-of-the-Year Award and was a member of the Foundation's ethics committee. He was also the recipient of the Franciscan Life Center's St. Francis Award in 1995, an honor given for his dedication and support of Christian values and outstanding athletic achievements.
Prior to taking the head coaching job at UConn, Holtz worked on the offensive staff under his father at Notre Dame. He spent four years at Notre Dame and served as the Fighting Irish's offensive coordinator during the 1992 and '93 seasons.
During those years, Holtz was in charge of one of the country's most potent offensive attacks - a period in which the Irish compiled a 21-2-1 record. The 1992 Notre Dame offense ranked third nationally in total offense, averaging better than 470 yards per game. The 1993 Irish offense, despite the loss of All-America running backs Jerome Bettis and Reggie Brooks, ended the season ranked No. 9 in scoring offense (36.6 points per game). During Holtz's two seasons as offensive coordinator at Notre Dame, the Irish offense averaged nearly 37 points per game.
Holtz has also served on the coaching staffs at Florida State and Colorado State. While serving on Bobby Bowden's FSU staff in 1987 and '88, the Seminoles rolled to a 22-2 record, captured the Sugar and Fiesta Bowl titles and earned a No. 2 and No. 3 national rank, respectively.
In all, he has been involved in eight New Year's Day bowl games during his coaching career. Prior to his stint at South Carolina, the overall record of teams he had been associated with as an assistant coach was an impressive 67-15-2.
Born March 12, 1964, in Willimantic, Conn., Louis "Skip" Holtz spent the first two years of his life in Connecticut, while his father served as the top football assistant on the Huskies' staff from 1964-65. He was a prep quarterback at Fayetteville (Ark.) High School, while his father was the head coach at the University of Arkansas.
He attended Holy Cross Junior College in South Bend, Ind., for two years before transferring to Notre Dame in 1984. Holtz earned his bachelor's degree in business management in 1986 and was a football letterwinner for the Irish that same year, appearing in all 11 games as a special teams member and backup flanker.
Skip and his wife, Jennifer, are the parents of three children: Louis Leo (Trey) Holtz III, Chad Fitzgerald Holtz and Hailey Elizabeth Holtz.

Nice. That's service.
I'm still waiting on any info other than order confirmation for items that showed in stock from RTG, Midway, Arms of America, and Sarco, but at least Sarco sent a notice that the order went to the warehouse awhile back.
Midway has sent me two emails to review their service on that last order, but since I haven't received it, I can't answer it

I don't think I'll ever buy hard goods from store ever again.
Craigslist is the only place to buy gear
When you find something cheap just do a little research.
Check often, the good shit doesn't last long.
The wicked deals are usually only up for a few hours, if that.
Where do you live? I'll find ya one
I have magical Craigslist powers

Welcome to the sport!
Thanks a lot for the replies and advice, guys!
@poutaten - I know very well that I don't know anything and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. I'd never take offense at someone saying that. Thanks for the advice! I have it hammered in that I'll be getting my boots first, but didn't know about bindings coming in second.
So I guess then I'll be on the lookout for a cheap board and practice and save up over a year or two for a more specialized one. Makes perfect sense to me. And heck, I am even having fun on RENTALS for now! The rental boots are significantly less fun tho :P
And it seems like you've done your research!!! Main thing is for a beginner to get a proper sized board, and one that's not too stiff, too soft, too rockered, too cambered, or any other "too"... With all due respect you're not really going to be able to tell the difference in most boards until you've got a lot more boarding under your belt.
Every noob wants to buy good equipment, and that makes sense, but take your own advice and focus on the boots. Get boots that fit WELL, then get bindings that work WELL, and then get the board. Chances are you'll want something different in a year or two anyway so no need to go crazy on a board now... you can move good boots and bindings to another board down the road.
Oh yeah, just to keep the forum drinking game going: my GF started on a K2 Luna 149 (the predecessor to the Lunatique) and she's about 5'6" and 145 lb. She just bought a Prior Brandywine camber 153 and she's STOKED!!! But she has about 50 days of riding under her belt, about 6 lessons, and is ready for a more focused board.
|magnetraction is the shit ^ i would definitely consider looking at boards with magnetraction. bindings are a key part of your board, there are different sizes of bindings, make sure you find the one that fits your foot right. and depending on the board you get, i recommend getting a binding with an equal or very similar stiffness rating. pretty colors are always fun too =]
|Can't comment on the other boards you are looking at, but the B-Nice is a great board for what you say you want to do...it butters well and the rocker will help you catch fewer edges. It's also a pretty flexy board so it would serve you well starting out in the park. Magnetraction helps you keep an edge cruising around. It's an all around solid choice.
Newbie needing setup advice (boards, boards and MORE boards!)
Hi everyone!
As the lengthy threat title says, I've been almost drowning in the multitude of options available these days. First, a little about me:
I am female, 5'6" and 140 lbs. I ride skateboards goofy and it seems to have transferred over to snowboarding. I just started out during Christmas week by taking three days of lessons. It was the best thing I could have done. In 3 days, I only properly faceplanted... twice. Impressive record, no? But seriously, I am working on improving my turn linking and I have a dumb tendency to catch edges, which I would like to lose.
I've been doing some research, as I would like to get my own gear as soon as possible. But that won't be until around spring this year, I am on a tiny student budget and thus waiting for the sales is a requirement for me.
Some boards I've been looking at (and drooling over):
GNU B-Nice 148
Ride Compact 147 or 150 - this one has no weight specs on their site and when I checked evo... the weight limits on it seem to be extremely low.
K2 Sky Lite 148 - not sure I want a completely flat base
Burton Social 147 - not quite as good reviews as the others. I dunno...
A local shop still has a K2 Lunatique on sale. Not sure of the size though. Worth jumping on?
I've seen the GNU B-Street recommended on here. It looks good, but I think it's almost out of my price range. If it's really amazing and totally worth it, I might pony up. I've also looked into Never Summer, but they are a tad on the pricey side and might be a bit stiff for a nooblord like me. Or should I just look for a pure cambered board? Suggestions?
Basically, I would like a twin (or near twin) board, as I looove riding switch and would like to learn spins and butters soon. For the moment I enjoy just going down the slope at a comfortable pace (no, I won't race you), but I think I would like to try some park at some point (jumps mainly, they look like tons of fun). I'd like a board that will work for me as a beginner but that I can stay with for a while - again, due to budget concerns.
I know about extruded vs. sintered (will the difference really affect me?), and about the different board profiles. I read my brains out on the internet
Bindings - I am completely lost here. What are some good binding companies/models? I looked at stuff like Burton Stilettos, GNU B-True and Union Flite and they all seem like they would work equally well for me. Those and more! What am I missing?
Boots - I know, I know: the most important piece of gear I plan to go to the local stores and try a bunch on until I find something I like. My guess is they will be on the softer side.
That's it! Sorry for boring you with such a long post!

Yoran is awesome !!!
my gameplay
Hi! Does anyone have any news about the CN version of the game? Like an estimative launch-date or something like that? Wanted to play the JP version but seeing as how you need a VPN for that, might as well wait for CN version if it launches in a couple of weeks or so...
couple of weeks ? lol no the CN version has been postponed since july 2013
i'll just stick with my yoran on kr
Last edited by shion1; 01-29-2014 at 02:03 PM.
Noticed that the Kritika Chinese version could be downloaded so I gave it a shot, took me awhile but I was able to successfully download it and create an account (hopefully the Chinese ID I chose wasn't under 18, but that's another story). Anyways I tried to log in and kept getting a weird message box. Was surfing around the front page and noticed something about a CD Activation Key. I'm assuming I missed out on signing up for closed beta/open beta?
Could be nice if someone could confirm this for me.
it's a CBT
Yeah that's what I expected, any idea when the CBT will end or when they'll start OBT?
i dont know about that but there had been many exp boost periods, looks like they want to rush the CBT for upcoming OB
ugh not really, she's a melee character with her scythe (she doesnt have summoning skills)
violation stance = fast and huge dmg with back attack combos, there are 3 skills which teleport you to the back of enemies then you can deal massive dmg with combos, there are another 2 huge dmg teleport skills that grants invincible frame when casting (while crimson assassin have only one back-teleport skill!)
skills from coquettish stance can "gather" enemy and deal massive dmg (much stronger than violation stance).
Now to the fun part : her EX2
... it makes every enemies (even bosses with super armor frame) enter slow motion mode (-90% all their speed) make them vulnerable and become delicious food ..for example you can cast EX2 then teleport to theire back > switch to coquettish stance and deal massive dmg, they are in slow motion due to the effect of EX2 so they cant turn around ...you know what to do to their backs
rough translation for EX2
self-effect :
violation stance :
+50% atk
+10% moving speed
+5% CP after each crit hit
*Lv1 10s invincible+slow motion (make enemies move/attack/react at 1/10 speed), up 1 Lv+ 0.3s effect time
coquettish stance (stack with violation stance if usinng EX2 when in violation stance then change to coquettish stance) :
+90% atk
*Lv1 10s invincible+slow motion (make enemies move/attack/react at 1/10 speed), up 1 Lv+ 0.3s effect time
pt effect :
+10% atk / moving speed
+5% CP after each crit hit
*Lv1 3s invincible+slow motion (make enemies around pt member move/attack/react at 1/10 speed), up 1 Lv+ 0.3s effect time
in this video
i was using a Lv.20 scythe on Lv.3x Master boss, one EX2 deal 12+ HP bars then killed him without back attack ...imagine it at higher Lv with back attacks...
finally, the funniest thing : Yoran's weakness is...her back ironic huh? while she's exploiting enemies back to deal massive dmg, her back become her weakness lol
and good news for people who are waiting for the chinese sv : Yoran will mostly be released in OB, they already had NPC rival bosses system (this one was released with Yoran patch). Well if they dont want us to have Yoran that soon, active bombarding mode and go to Tencent building...
oh god...cant believe i writed all this, time for some music to break that walloftext

Wow, so glad I found this thread. I downloaded this game last week and have been playing on JP server since. Have to say, this game is an absolute blast to play! And worth every effort it took to register (curse you pmang.jp captcha!!)
So what classes are you all liking so far? So far i've been playing Demon Blade and Crimson Assassin, and so far i'm enjoying the assassin hell of a lot more! Fast actions, quick dashes, can single out enemies easily (good for dealing with elites quickly), and of course the izuna drop!!
I'm jealous of the people playing on kr servers, we don't get yoran until the 23rd next week, but I wanna play that class sooo bad! I love femme fatale classes in MMOs like these (Witchblades in C9, Acros in DN, etc).
Are any of you playing on JP servers? I'd love to team up with some people. Feels so empty right now...
You guys should all migrate to JP server. x_x
Need more players. We're getting Yoran next week too. I don't know what KR servers are like but I hear registration is a lot more complicated.

As promised in this thread
Here's the in Progress shots of Michelle's Custom mando
The Concept colors for the helmet
As promised in this thread
Here's the in Progress shots of Michelle's Custom mando
The Concept colors for the helmet
The helmet itself is a SgtFang with the dent filled
That aught to look pretty nice! The color pattern of pink and gray/charcoal mix well.
The part that will be Hot Pink was masked off ( as well as some scratches) & the Charcoal Grey Metallic was sprayed on
and here are the boots she'll be wearing
i added the Black on the upper cheeks and back of the helmet
Peeled off all the masking tape & fluid
added the scratches
I wanted a shot in the sunlight to better show the true colors
so I took this shot
immediately after I took that pic, TRAGEDY STRUCK!
The wind blew the box over & Michelle's helmet fell 3 feet or so to the ground
here's the damage; ( I am not pleased)
Maybe you could work it into the battle damage of the bucket! Just add some hair line fractures to the visor in that area when you attach it. It would definately add a small but uniqe detail!... Looking good so far...
I already sanded the area & am adding Evercoat to fix it back to how it was.
Fortunately, I didn't do the Pink yet.
Yeah, thats not that big of a deal...and definitely fixable. Atleast it happened while you could fix it and not somewhere that you couldn't.
Crisis averted.
all patched up & ready for the pink
Taped off for the Hot Pink
also applied the liquid mask for some scratches
Sprayed the pink
The last pic is outside so you can see the true colors (no accidents this time )
Awesome job man! Already starting out great, can't wait to see it finished.
Just keeps getting better and better =D
I added a few touches & did some more scratching
Still needs the washes applied
what do you guys think?
Like it?
Looks extremely good.
Looking very good man.
Beautifully done
Looks really good...the only thing I might do is kinda roughen up the scratch edges...it looks like you threw paint drops in some spots. If you sanded them that way, try sanding them a little more to make the edges more jagged. Or maybe I'm just being anal. lol
Either way, you did a fantastic job, and the color scheme works great.
Looks shiny.
Looks great as usual. The speed at which you paint your projects is always impressive.
You may already intend to add details, but it would be cool to see a lot more little scratches. I was looking at the paint job over in this thread:
lotsa little details there, like the middle part on that rocket pack you just painted. Also, this may sound cool or not (pink mando helmets venture deeply into the realm of subjective opinion), but maybe if it had a... red visor, or some colored visor? like this:
Looking quite excellent!!

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by kpaav, May 13, 2014.
Is Joe going to report to Big Stan?
Excellent perceptions. A couple of things to remember: first, he has been out of the league for a couple of years; second, he has the aggressive itch to get back into the game. I have yet to read a professional article that mentions how weak the current crop of coaches that are now coaching. Perhaps some owners are looking for the new managerial- looking-glass types...called the stretch-GM (aka, President of Basketball Operations). Don't worry about Otis Smith. If elected (which I doubt), he would be nothing but a colorful coat-hanger. Stan's rushing to Monroe is good PR. Monroe's nightmare might be having Falk's dream come true with Mr. Max Contract becoming the next Steampunk reality factor. Good call on the guard situation. Like I mentioned before: if Gordon sneaks in, then Stan must make a Smart decision thus giving notice to Jennings.
FINALLY I GET TO BREAK SOMETHING Twitter / MySportsLegion: Report: Stan Van Gundy will ...
If your not a Bad Boy fan.... does anybody like Bill L? The world hated him...... just delurking and saying.... give him a year and re address your feelings, its what I plan to do.
Twitter / Vincent_Ellis56: League source: SVG is a big ...
Perhaps not. Source: Stan Van Gundy a fan of Greg Monroe, gave pending restricted free agent a call | Detroit Free Press | freep.com
You mean people were just talkingtyping out their rear end about what Stan is "going to do" before the ink was even dry on the contract?
I had the same gut reaction but the guy is very candid. Most of the negative things he said were right on. I disagree with what he said about Detroit fans but when you run your mouth so much, you're bound to stick your foot in it. But the media was all about Detroit when we beat him and were constantly asking him about Detroit. He was sick of it and he said so. Criticism of the buffoonery incident was spot on. I saw him as the enemy for a long time but we can't afford to hold on to grudges cultivated by a team long gone. SVG's teams have that same character that fits Detroit. Just because he dried when we beat him up doesn't mean he can't add value.
I guarantee that he will/will not re-sign Monroe.
You are really putting it all out there, Slippy!
Will you back up that guarantee? If Stan re-signs Monroe, would you use an Oprah avatar for 6 months?
Ernie will do it unsolicited.
don't go all wiggles-ey on us now.
No Sir. Wiggles never ever waffled. He told us exactly what had happened. Unfortunately for him it didn't. Bill Laimbeer " tactfully" pointed this out to wiggles who sort of permanently vanished.
No weapon was ever found.
Never is.
There are so many different threads people are starting (I get Jeremy's poll being seperate) . It makes it tougher to follow. Geez. He's only been here a couple of days. At this rate there will be 200 before the season even begins. Never mind. I'm sure it's just me. I will go back to the Eagles thread where I belong and cause trouble there.
Eagles?? What do the Eagles have to do with anything? They remind me of a Sea Gull. You know, they fly around squawking all the time, crap all over every thing, and you can't shoot them because they're protected be the government.
You are correct. Some people are a little thread-happy. It does make it more difficult to discuss a topic but to each his own I guess.
This is my thread and I'm sticking to it
Separate names with a comma.

Fisheries Management in Public Waters
Hatchery Production and Stocking
One method of enhancing the opportunities for recreational fishing statewide is through the stocking of fish. New lakes and ponds can be stocked with fish to establish a sport fish population. Depleted or threatened native populations may be replenished by stocking. New species can be introduced into lakes to create new fishing opportunities. The high demand for limited fish resources can be met by stocking; for example, the demand for trout fishing opportunities cannot be met by Georgia's native trout populations. To buffer pressure on the trout resource and maintain the quality of native trout fishing, trout are reared to a catchable size (about 9 inches) at state hatcheries. These fish are then stocked in selected streams or impoundments to provide a "put and take" trout fishery to help meet the demand for trout fishing opportunities. Hatchery production and stocking account for approximately 26% of the Section's annual expenditures.
There are two types of hatchery production in the state:
Warmwater Fish Production and Stocking
The Section produces warmwater fish at seven hatcheries statewide. About 40,000,000 fry, fingerlings and adult fish are raised each year in over 96 acres of hatchery ponds. One example is the production of striped bass for stocking in rivers to re-establish and/or maintain native stocks. Striped bass and striped bass hybrids are also raised for stocking in reservoirs to provide a unique, new fishery and to control forage fish populations. Bluegill, redear sunfish, largemouth bass and channel catfish are produced for stocking ponds, small lakes and new public fishing lakes to establish desirable fish populations. Channel catfish are also produced for Kids Fishing Events.
Trout Production and Stocking
Georgia is the southernmost state in the eastern United States containing significant trout habitat. Over 4,000 miles of trout streams exist in the northern third of the state, primarily in or near the Chattahoochee National Forest. Trout fishing is a very popular activity; however, these streams cannot support the current fishing pressure unless a stocking program is maintained. Three state fish hatcheries and two federal hatcheries work together to produce the trout needed. Through their efforts, approximately 1.1 million trout are stocked into north Georgia.

Living With
For more stories of families living with SMA, see our SMA stories on Strongly, the MDA blog, or SMA stories on The Mighty.
Dear Friends:
I've had symptoms of spinal muscular atrophy since I was a baby. When most children were beginning to walk, my parents noticed that my head would flop to the floor as I crawled. Doctors said I had amyotonia congenita and predicted I wouldn't live past my 8th birthday. When I turned 14, the diagnosis was changed to benign congenital hypotonia.
It wasn't until I was leaving for college at age 18 that the label was changed again, to spinal muscular atrophy. These changes didn't reflect anything new in my condition, but a change in the understanding of the disease called SMA.
While attending Southern Illinois University, in Carbondale, Ill., I earned both my bachelor's and master's degrees in psychology and counseling, respectively. After graduation I worked for the Department of Mental Health in New York for 14 years and for the past 20 years have been in private practice as a licensed mental health counselor in Altamonte Springs, Fla. My wife, Sheryl, and I have two grown, adult kids and a young grandson. I also enjoy such hobbies as computer technology and music composition (including the publication of two songs in Nashville).
These pages are designed to help you better understand the causes, symptoms and progression of the different forms of SMA. It's hoped that this knowledge will help you plan for the future and take heart in the present, knowing that a diagnosis of SMA doesn't preclude leading a full and rewarding life.
And I'm in no way an exception to the rule. People with SMA are involved in all areas of society: the arts, science, law, management, teaching — you name it. Children with SMA tend to be highly intelligent, creative and adaptable individuals who contribute much to the world despite their challenges.
As you'll learn from these pages, great progress is being made in treating SMA and moving toward a cure. Medical, computer and assistive technologies enable even very young children to compensate for weak muscles. While some forms of SMA still shorten life span, new approaches to ventilation and feeding have expanded what's possible. And the search for cures is making steady, encouraging progress.
The Muscular Dystrophy Association is the leading sponsor of SMA research. The Association also provides a full program of services for individuals and families coping with SMA, and up-to-date information about research progress. For more on MDA's services for individuals and families affected by SMA, see Help Through Services.
When I was a baby more than half a century ago, the world was much more discouraging for people with disabilities. Today, medical science, technology, health care services and laws such as the Americans With Disabilities Act help us to stretch to reach our full potential.
If I were to share any words of advice, it would be to let your own experience, rather than a medical label, determine what your life's limitations and potentials are going to be. Build on your personal strengths, determination and faith — or encourage your child to do so. And remember that the extended family of MDA is there to help when needed. You're not in this alone.
Throughout my life I've been called a dreamer, and I've found much joy in fulfilling those dreams. May this also be true for you and your family.

I attended Finovatethis week to get a preview of new financial services digital technology vendors. I say preview because if you have ever been to Finovate, you know it's a little like speed dating, where 63 vendors have 7 minutes each to show you their best moves. The themes at Finovate this year were not much different as previous years with the focus being on mobile banking, personal financial management, and payments. However, this year, a few new topics emerged: rewards, coupons, and mobile banking services for Pre-Paid Visas customers. Apparently, Pre-Paid Visas are the new black.
While there was plenty of interesting and innovative demonstrations, Forrester attended the conference to identify trends and solutions relevant for our retail digital financial services clients. Specifically, we looked at innovative solutions for our clients related to mobile banking, personal financial management, and payments.

Alberto Ginastera: Premiere of Concierto Argentino(November 2011)
The Argentine composer's first work for piano and orchestra is reintroduced after more than 75 years
For decades, pianists have performed and championed the two piano concerti by celebrated Argentine composer Alberto Ginastera (1916-1983). Unknown to many is Ginastera's first piece for piano and orchestra, Concierto Argentino, written at age 19 in 1935. This early work was performed only once, by the pianist it was dedicated to, Hugh Balzo, and withdrawn following its premiere. On December 10, 2011, Concierto Argentino will be reintroduced for the first time in over 75 years in a concert paired with his Piano Concerto No. 1 (1961) and Piano Concerto No. 2 (1972), showcasing the complete arc of the composer's writing for piano and orchestra over his career. The featured soloist is pianist and Ginastera champion Barbara Nissman, who performs these works with the University of Michigan's University Symphony Orchestra and conductor Kenneth Keisler at the University of Michigan's Hill Auditorium.
Themes found in Concierto Argentino hint at works that followed shortly after in his young career, including melodies that appear in Panambi (1934-36); Three Argentine Danzas (1937); and Suite des Danzas Criollas (1946). Throughout the work are Latin-infused dance tunes and even a tango section. Nissman, the featured soloist, worked closely with the composer, first meeting him while performing Piano Concerto No. 1 in 1970 at the same venue. Nissman and Ginastera had a close professional relationship, with the composer eventually dedicating his final completed work to her, Piano Sonata No. 3 (1982).
Nissman will also perform the original version of Piano Concerto No. 2 in this concert. This performance is part of a festival celebrating the composer, titled Vivia Ginastera! (December 6-11), featuring lectures and concerts with other chamber works. A recording of Concierto Argentino, Piano Concerto No. 1 and the original version of Piano Concerto No. 2 featuring Nissman and the University Symphony Orchestra will be available at a later date.
