only slides in the direction v, then the twist is a pure slide given by Revolute joints For a revolute joint, let the axis of rotation pass through the point q and be directed along the vector ω, then the twist for the joint is given by, Prismatic joints For a prismatic joint, let the vector v pointing define the direction of the slide, then the twist for the joint is given by, Coordinate transformation of screws The coordinate transformations for screws are easily understood by beginning with the coordinate transformations of the Plücker vector of line, which in turn are obtained from the transformations of the coordinate of points on the line. Let the displacement of a body be defined by D = ([A], d), where [A] is the rotation matrix and d is the translation vector. Consider the line in the body defined by the two points p and q, which has the Plücker coordinates, then in the fixed frame we have the transformed point coordinates P = [A]p + d and Q = [A]q + d, which yield. Thus, a spatial displacement defines a transformation for Plücker coordinates of lines given by The matrix [D] is the skew-symmetric matrix that performs the cross product operation, that is [D]y = d × y. The 6×6 matrix obtained from the spatial displacement D = ([A], d) can be assembled into the dual matrix which operates on a screw s = (s.v) to obtain, The dual matrix [Â] = ([A], [DA]) has determinant 1 and is called a dual orthogonal matrix. Twists as elements of a Lie algebra Consider the movement of a rigid body defined by the parameterized 4x4 homogeneous transform, This notation does not distinguish between P = (X, Y, Z, 1), and P = (X, Y, Z), which is hopefully clear in context. The velocity of this movement is defined by computing the velocity of the trajectories of the points in the body, The dot denotes the derivative with respect to time, and because p is constant its derivative is zero. Substitute the inverse transform for p into the velocity equation to obtain the velocity of P by operating on its trajectory P(t), that is where Recall that [Ω] is the angular velocity matrix. The matrix [S] is an element of the Lie algebra se(3) of the Lie group SE(3) of homogeneous transforms. The components of [S] are the components of the twist screw, and for this reason [S] is also often called a twist. From the definition of the matrix [S], we can formulate the ordinary differential equation, and ask for the movement [T(t)] that has a constant twist matrix [S]. The solution is the matrix exponential This formulation can be generalized such that given an initial configuration g(0) in SE(n), and a twist ξ in se(n), the homogeneous transformation to a new location and orientation can be computed with the formula, where θ represents the parameters of the transformation. Screws by reflection In transformation geometry, the elemental concept of transformation is the reflection (mathematics). In planar transformations a translation is obtained by reflection in parallel lines, and rotation is obtained by reflection in a pair of intersecting lines. To produce a screw transformation from similar concepts one must use planes in space: the parallel planes must be perpendicular to the screw axis, which is the line of intersection of the intersecting planes that generate the rotation of the screw. Thus four reflections in planes effect a screw transformation. The tradition of inversive geometry borrows some of the ideas of projective geometry and provides a language of transformation that does not depend on analytic geometry. Homography The combination of a translation with a rotation effected by a screw displacement can be illustrated with the exponential mapping. This idea in transformation geometry was advanced by Sophus Lie more than a century ago. Even earlier, William Rowan Hamilton displayed the versor form of unit quaternions as exp(a r)= cos a + r sin a. The idea is also in Euler's formula parametrizing the unit circle in the complex plane. Since ε2 = 0 for dual numbers, exp(aε) = 1 + aε, all other terms of the exponential series vanishing. Let F = {1 + εr : r ∈ H}, ε2 = 0. Note that F is stable under the rotation q → p −1 qp and under the translation (1 + εr)(1 + εs) = 1 + ε (r + s) for any vector quaternions r and s. F is a 3-flat in the eight-dimensional space of dual quaternions. This 3-flat F represents space, and the homography constructed, restricted to F, is a screw displacement of space. Let a be half the angle of the desired turn about axis r, and br half the displacement on the screw axis. Then form z = exp((a + bε)r ) and z* = exp((a − bε)r). Now the homography is The inverse for z* is so, the homography sends q to Now for any quaternion vector p, p* = −p, let q = 1 + pε ∈ F where the required rotation and translation are effected. William Kingdon Clifford initiated the use of dual quaternions for kinematics, followed by Aleksandr Kotelnikov, Eduard Study (Geometrie der Dynamen), and Wilhelm Blaschke. However, the point of view of Sophus Lie has recurred. In 1940, Julian Coolidge described the use of dual quaternions for screw displacements on page 261 of A History of Geometrical Methods. He notes the 1885 contribution of Arthur Buchheim. Coolidge based his description simply on the tools Hamilton had used for real quaternions. Evidently the group of units of the ring of dual quaternions is a Lie group. A subgroup has Lie algebra generated by the parameters a r and b s, where a, b ∈ R, and r, s ∈ H. These six parameters generate a subgroup of the units, the unit sphere. Of course it includes F and the | normal to the axes of S and T, and ẑ = (φ, d) is the dual angle between these axes, then Wrench A common example of a screw is the wrench associated with a force acting on a rigid body. Let P be the point of application of the force F and let P be the vector locating this point in a fixed frame. The wrench W = (F, P×F) is a screw. The resultant force and moment obtained from all the forces Fi, i = 1,...,n, acting on a rigid body is simply the sum of the individual wrenches Wi, that is Notice that the case of two equal but opposite forces F and −F acting at points A and B respectively, yields the resultant This shows that screws of the form can be interpreted as pure moments. Twist In order to define the twist of a rigid body, we must consider its movement defined by the parameterized set of spatial displacements, D(t)=([A(t)],d(t)), where [A] is a rotation matrix and d is a translation vector. This causes a point p that is fixed in moving body coordinates to trace a curve P(t) in the fixed frame given by, The velocity of P is where v is velocity of the origin of the moving frame, that is dd/dt. Now substitute p = [AT](P − d) into this equation to obtain, where [Ω] = [dA/dt][AT] is the angular velocity matrix and ω is the angular velocity vector. The screw is the twist of the moving body. The vector V = v + d × ω is the velocity of the point in the body that corresponds with the origin of the fixed frame. There are two important special cases: (i) when d is constant, that is v = 0, then the twist is a pure rotation about a line, then the twist is and (ii) when [Ω] = 0, that is the body does not rotate but only slides in the direction v, then the twist is a pure slide given by Revolute joints For a revolute joint, let the axis of rotation pass through the point q and be directed along the vector ω, then the twist for the joint is given by, Prismatic joints For a prismatic joint, let the vector v pointing define the direction of the slide, then the twist for the joint is given by, Coordinate transformation of screws The coordinate transformations for screws are easily understood by beginning with the coordinate transformations of the Plücker vector of line, which in turn are obtained from the transformations of the coordinate of points on the line.

How can a company have 117.98% of Shares Held by Institutions | it's impossible for more than 100% of a company's shares to actually be held, since those shares don't actually exist (duh.) The first source of discrepancies like this is lag (or errors) in reporting; institutions that hold stock don't necessarily report their holdings all at the same time, so if institution A has recently sold stock to institution B their publicly available reports might indicate that more than 100% of a firm's stock is owned. These should be corrected in a fairly short time. The second reason is that in a course of a shorting transaction, a financial institution might buy shares of stock and loan them to a second institution for the duration of the short. This can lead to both reporting that they 'own' the shares, since they are reflected on their books at the time of reporting. |

Others, including co-author Scott McEwen, disputed this. On May 28, The Hollywood Reporter did an analysis, concluding that the newly released internal Navy documents were inconclusive — that the document that typically is the definitive record of military service matched Kyle's claims and that the Navy had not yet publicly stated this document or the facts within it were incorrect. Kyle's DD Form 214 listed a total of two Silver Stars and six Bronze stars, more than he claimed in his book.

Reaction Post-publication retraction In July 2014, the sub-chapter "Punching Out Scruff Face" was removed from later editions of the book, after a three-week trial in U.S. Federal Court wherein the jury found that the author, Chris Kyle, had unjustly enriched himself by defaming plaintiff Jesse Ventura. In the book, Kyle described blackening the eye of "Scruff Face", whom he later identified in media interviews as Jesse Ventura. The jury awarded Ventura $500,000 for defamation and $1,345,477.25 for unjust enrichment. In December 2014, attorneys for Ventura filed a separate lawsuit against HarperCollins, the parent company of the publisher, for failing to check the accuracy of the story it used in publicity.

splitting. Splitting is the tendency to view events or people as either all bad or all good. When viewing people as all good, the individual is said to be using the defense mechanism idealization: a mental mechanism in which the person attributes exaggeratedly positive qualities to the self or others. When viewing people as all bad, the individual employs devaluation: attributing exaggeratedly negative qualities to the self or others. In child development, idealization and devaluation are quite normal. During the childhood development stage, individuals become capable of perceiving others as complex structures, containing both good and bad components. If the development stage is interrupted (by early childhood trauma, for example), these defense mechanisms may persist into adulthood. Sigmund Freud The term idealization first appeared in connection with Freud's definition of narcissism. Freud's vision was that all human infants pass through a phase of primary narcissism in which they assume they are the centre of their universe. To obtain the parents' love | term idealization first appeared in connection with Freud's definition of narcissism. Freud's vision was that all human infants pass through a phase of primary narcissism in which they assume they are the centre of their universe. To obtain the parents' love the child comes to do what he thinks the parents value. Internalising these values the child forms an ego ideal. This ego ideal contains rules for good behaviour and standards of excellence toward which the ego has to strive. When the child cannot bear ambivalence between the real self and the ego ideal and defenses are used too often, it is called pathologic. Freud called this situation secondary narcissism, because the ego itself is idealized. Explanations of the idealization of others besides the self are sought in drive theory as well as in object relations theory. From the viewpoint of libidinal drives, idealization of other people is a "flowing-over" of narcissistic libido onto the object; from the viewpoint of self-object relations, the object representations (like that of the caregivers) were made more beautiful than they really were. Heinz Kohut An extension of Freud's theory of narcissism came when Heinz Kohut presented the so-called "self-object transferences" of idealization and mirroring. To Kohut, idealization in childhood is a healthy mechanism. If the parents fail to provide appropriate opportunities for idealization (healthy narcissism) and mirroring (how to cope with reality), the child does not develop beyond a developmental stage in which he sees himself as grandiose but in which he also remains dependent on others |

Those with a history of heart disease who take Meridia may be at high risk of heart attack .
The FDA is scheduled to meet this month to discuss increased regulation for Meridia .
The study showed a 28 percent increased heart attack risk and a 36 percent increased stroke risk . | (Health.com) -- Overweight people with a history of heart disease who take the prescription weight-loss drug Meridia may be at increased risk of heart attack or stroke, according to a study published this week in the New England Journal of Medicine. The study confirms longstanding concerns about the safety of Meridia in people with heart disease and other heart problems, who are already warned against taking the drug. A Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory committee is scheduled to meet later this month to discuss the possibility of increased regulation for Meridia. The meeting was prompted by the preliminary results from the study, known as SCOUT, which were released by the agency in November 2009. Health.com: 9 surprising heart attack risks . In the study -- which was sponsored by the drug's maker, Abbott Laboratories -- researchers followed 10,744 overweight and obese people who had heart disease or type 2 diabetes and a risk factor for heart disease (such as high blood pressure) for about 3.5 years. During that time, 4.1 percent and 2.6 percent of the people taking Meridia had a nonfatal heart attack or stroke, respectively, compared with 3.2 percent and 1.9 percent of the people taking a placebo pill. That translates into a 28 percent increased risk of heart attack and a 36 percent increased risk of stroke, according to the study. However, Meridia did not appear to increase the risk of heart attack or stroke in diabetics with no history of heart disease. Nor did the researchers find any differences in the death rates from heart attack, stroke, or other causes in people taking Meridia versus placebo. Health.com: Heart trouble? 30 herbal remedies to avoid . Lead researcher W. Philip T. James, M.D., an obesity expert at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, in the U.K., says that the study underscores that Meridia should not be prescribed to people with existing heart problems. But, he adds, "it does not prove that you should extrapolate the data to the normal population for which the drug is intended." The active ingredient in Meridia, sibutramine, suppresses appetite by affecting levels of the brain chemicals serotonin and norepinephrine. The drug is designed to be used by overweight and obese people, not by people who are a bit chubby and are trying to slim down. Health.com: 25 diet-busting foods you should never eat . Meridia has been shown to slightly raise blood pressure and heart rate, and the cardiovascular risk associated with the drug has been known for years. Since being approved by the FDA in 1997, Meridia has carried a warning on its label that says the drug should not be used in people with a history of heart disease, heart failure, heart-rhythm problems, or stroke. In January 2010, after reviewing the preliminary data from the SCOUT study, the FDA asked Abbott to strengthen the warning. The European Medicines Agency -- the European equivalent of the FDA -- chose to suspend sales of the drug in the European Union. In an editorial accompanying the study, three New England Journal of Medicine editors suggest that the heart risk associated with Meridia is not justified by the weight loss seen in the study -- about 9.5 pounds (or 4.5 percent of initial body weight) after one year, on average. "[I]t is difficult to discern a credible rationale for keeping this medication on the market," the editors write. Health.com: Three new weight-loss drugs: will they work? The FDA would be going too far if it pulled the drug from the market, says Donna H. Ryan, M.D., associate executive director for clinical research at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. She notes that the patients taking Meridia who were at greater risk for heart attack and stroke in the SCOUT study -- those with preexisting cardiovascular disease -- are already precluded from taking the drug. The study should not be interpreted to mean that the drug shouldn't be used at all, says Ryan, who prior to 2008 served as a consultant for Abbott and other manufacturers of obesity drugs. "The study doesn't really support that, and indeed, in the population where you didn't have preexisting cardiovascular disease...there is no increased risk," she says. Sidney Wolfe, M.D., the director of the health research group at Public Citizen, a consumer advocacy organization that petitioned the FDA to ban Meridia for safety reasons in 2002, says that even people who haven't been diagnosed with heart disease should avoid Meridia. Some obese people have unrecognized heart problems that may be aggravated by the drug, he says. Meridia "should never have been approved in the first place," Wolfe adds. The FDA's advisory committee on endocrinologic and metabolic drugs will discuss Meridia on September 15. The agency is not required to follow the committee's recommendations, but it typically does.

the city. Shanghai had previously had a small population of Baghdadi Jews and Russian Jews, the latter mostly having fled the Russian Empire as a result of anti-Jewish pogroms. The new Ashkenazi Jews that immigrated to Shanghai began arriving from 1933, firstly German Jews following the Nazi Party's rise to power. Despite the cultural differences they faced, and restrictions imposed by the Japanese under Nazi pressure, the Jews of Shanghai survived the war unharmed, as the Japanese refused to hand them over to the Germans. Following the end of the Second World War, many Jews who had sought refuge in Shanghai returned to Europe or decided to settle in countries with much larger Jewish populations, such as the United States and Palestine. Most of the Jews that chose to stay in Shanghai left shortly afterwards as a result of the resumption of the Chinese Civil War, and by the late 1950s very few Jews remained in Shanghai. As a result of Chinese economic growth in recent years, however, the city's Jewish population has grown to around 1,500 in 2010. This compares to a Jewish population of fewer than 100 around 20 years before. Production Wu, a former history teacher, first became interested in the history of Shanghai's Jews, obscure to both Jews and Chinese alike, in 2005. To mark the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, many newspapers and magazines in Shanghai published the stories of Jewish refugees, seeing parallels between the Jewish and Chinese peoples' oppression by the Germans and Japanese respectively. Wu had previously lived in Los Angeles, and he based the character of Mishalli on Jerry Moses, a Jewish American friend, originally from Breslau (now Wrocław, Poland). Jerry Moses obtained a safe haven in Shanghai. Moses and other Jewish friends helped Wu to learn about Jewish religious practices. Wu has stated that his main reason for making the film was to let children know about what really happened, and to promote the story and the history so that people all over the world can learn from it. The story was originally conceived for adults, but Wu decided to aim the film at children in the hope that the film could influence the future generation. Glenn Timmermans, the organiser of the Macau Jewish Film Festival, has stated that he believes the film's intended age group is between around eight and fourteen years, though he notes its wider appeal. One of the film's characters, a talking monkey, has been noted as one of the more child-orientated features of the film. Wu first created a A Jewish Girl in Shanghai as a graphic novel, published in 2008 by East China Normal University Press. The graphic novel has been described as a "great success" by Wu, selling 4,000 copies in the first six months since its release, though, as it was only published in English, its Chinese market was naturally limited. Wu has stated that a Hebrew version of the graphic novel is under consideration. In 2009, Wu began work on a film adaptation to bring the work to a broader audience in China. The film, produced using 35 mm film, is, unlike the graphic novel, in Mandarin Chinese, and was developed by the Shanghai Film Group Corporation and the Shanghai Animation Film Studio. The film score was composed by Shi Jiayang. Release A Jewish Girl in Shanghai made its world premiere in Shanghai in May 2010. The film began showing across China from 28 May. After a month following the film's general release, it was being shown in 200 Chinese cinemas. When it was first shown in China, it was in front of 700 school pupils, who, according to Wu, "laughed and cried several times". He described the emotional impact of the film as "very rare for an animated film". The film subsequently made its premiere in Macau on November 14, 2010 at the Cultural Centre of the University of Macau, as part of the 1st Macau Jewish Film Festival. The Hong Kong premiere took place a week later, on November 21, at the Jewish Community Centre on Robinson Road, as part of the 11th Hong Kong Jewish Film Festival. The film's Israeli premiere took place in July 2010, when it was shown as part of the 27th Jerusalem Film Festival on July 13 and 14. The film was well received by the Israeli audience. The British premiere took place in November 2010, when it was shown at the Tricycle Theatre in Kilburn, London. The film was first shown on November 20 as part of the 14th UK Jewish Film Festival. The film's subtitles in English were noted as containing a few mistranslations and | army occupying the city, and their allies, the Nazis. In the background, the Second Sino-Japanese War takes place, while the children must face the uncertainty that concerns the fate of Rina and Mishalli's parents in Europe. Well received in China and internationally, A Jewish Girl in Shanghai has been heralded as the first animated Chinese film to address the Holocaust, and has been described as "China's first homegrown Jewish film". The film has been nominated for awards in China and Israel, and has been considered an important step towards improving China's relations with Israel and intercultural relations between the Chinese and Jewish peoples. Plot An old blue eyed lady arrives in modern-day Shanghai, holding an old locket. Back in the 1940s, the children Rina and Mishalli, European Jews sought refuge within Shanghai Ghetto, having escaped the Nazis in their home Germany. A-Gen, was a Chinese boy who sold bread for a living. Rina gave her locket in exchange of food. A-Gen tries to find Rina to return her locket. She was welcomed upon by A-Gen to his home, as he was raised by his father's friend, who was once alongside his father, fought the Japanese, in which A-Gen's father died. Together, the three children live in Shanghai, until a collaborator reveal their location to the Japanese Army. A-Gen's guardian held and allowed himself to be caught by the soldiers. 1945, the Japanese surrendered. A-Gen sees his friend Rina one last time as she was taken to the ship back to Europe. Rina is the old woman from the beginning, trying to search for A-Gen, who came as an old man. Historical background During the Second World War, approximately 20,000 Jewish refugees fleeing German-occupied Europe were given an area of approximately one square mile in the Hongkou District of Shanghai by the Japanese Empire, designated the Restricted Sector for Stateless Refugees, one of the poorest and most overcrowded areas of the city. Shanghai had previously had a small population of Baghdadi Jews and Russian Jews, the latter mostly having fled the Russian Empire as a result of anti-Jewish pogroms.

At the March 25, 1940, meeting dues were raised to 50 cents. In the years since, the guild has been responsible for bringing many puppeteers from throughout the country to perform in Saint Louis. Among the eighteen charter members of the Puppeteers of America in 1938, Susan Barnes, Iona Hedges, and Ellen and Romaine Proctor were also members of the Puppet Guild of Greater Saint Louis. Circa 1939-1964 The presidents of the guild were 1939-40 Wendel Chilton 1940-41 Carolyn Meyer 1941-42 R. C.

They were particularly well-known in Saint Louis for their Christmas performances in the fashionable Scruggs Department Store. Romaine Proctor is credited with designing the puppet Saint Louis on a rearing horse for the guild logo. The Rowlsons traveled and painted wagons. They had a beautiful, “gypsy” wagon that they had designed, and with which they would travel during the summers, painting and performing. Carolyn Meyer was a school teacher and known for her fabulous cardboard shadow puppets with levering mechanisms for more movement. Art Pfaff and his first wife [need name] and upon her death, his second wife, Gladys, were very popular performers with glove and rod puppets. The “Ruth Quinn Marionettes” performed variety acts and she and also created marionettes for other puppeteers across the country. Elmer Kramer and family were also popular puppeteers. Nelly Mendham and Genevieve Albers were renowned for her colorful shadow puppetry. Claude Sontag and his wife were also popular performers of that era. Mildred (Billie) Blackwell was also a popular puppeteer. The guild successfully brought the 1941 Puppeteers of America Festival to Saint Louis (and 3 others since). The first one being on June 24–27, 1941. It was held at the Melbourne Hotel (Northwest Corner of Grand and Lindell), Saint Louis, Missouri with Romain Proctor as chairman. The next festival was June 25–28, 1947 at Saint Peter’s [Evangelical United Church of Christ?] Church [at Saint Louis and Warne Avenues?] Saint Louis, Missouri with Leona Thompson as chairman. The guild published the Puppetry Grapevine, the official publication of the Puppeteers of America…forerunner to The Puppetry Journal. The Puppeteers of America, Inc. also “chartered” guilds who apply and have 10 or more members who are also members of The Puppeteers of America, Inc.

The only common element is an appreciation of the art of puppetry. Origins The Puppet Guild of Greater Saint Louis, Inc. was founded largely through the efforts of Iona Hedges. She had attended the first Puppeteers of America Festival in 1936 and signed herself and Susan Barnes as charter members of that organization. In 1939 the Puppet Guild of St. Louis was formed, and dues were 10 cents. At that time, the main thrust of guild activity was to bring the Puppeteers of America National Festival to Saint Louis in 1940. However it did not actually happen until 1941. Those persons at the first meeting on June 12, 1939, at the home of Iona Hedges, 5445 Maple Avenue, in the City of St. Louis were as follows: (No listing of the charter members has been found.

how to calculate percent yield recrystallization? | Percent recovery = amount of substance you actually collected / amount of substance you were supposed to collect, as a percent. Let's say you had 10.0g of impure material and after recrystallization you collected 7.0 g of dry pure material. Then your percent recovery is 70% (7/10 x 100). |
why do we do online checkin for flights? | My quick take: * Some airports have different counters for check-in and baggage drop-off, so it should be faster overall * When I check-on online I acutally get a boarding card (surrogate). Thus, when I only have carry-on luggage, I don't have to queue at all. * I assume that Airlines can estimates the number of no-shows. As far as I remember, flights are typically overbooked since no-shows seem to be common. |

Jason Barnett, of Paroxysm Records, heard the record, and offered them a record contract. Their second album, In the Zone, was described by Kotori magazine as "All casio all the time (with occasional tambourine), they've got hooks so sweet you can't help but get addicted". and by Allmusic as "the perfect soundtrack for when the Powerpuff Girls become the Powerpuff Late Teenagers, mixing in a touch more angst but still gleefully kicking ass and taking names." The duo's last album, Pure Magical Love, was released in January 2006, and according to Jessie Nelson of the Athens Exchange, "oozes quintessential girliness", going on to describe it as "girl music for women who remember being ten, dressing up in old clothes and dancing around the living room to Madonna". A winter tour that coincided with that album's release ended early after Lynn's car "blew up"; in an April 2006 MySpace blog entry (their most recent blog entry ), Lynn implies the duo is no longer active: In spring of 2008, Heather Lynn created a live performance of the Pure Magical Love record that she performed at Version Festival in Chicago.

says she was speaking not of him but of Medoro and Angelica's love. She shows him the bracelet she claims Medoro gave her and says she sees his face in every brook and flower (Aria:Se mi rivolgo al prato). Orlando recognises the bracelet as one he had given Angelica and is furious at her betrayal. He vows to kill her, then himself, and pursue her in Hell itself (Aria:Cielo! se tu il consenti). On one side, a grove of laurel trees, on the other, the entrance to a cave - Zoroastro advises Medoro and Angelica to flee Orlando's wrath and promises to protect them on their journey, advising them that they should always be guided by reason (Aria:Tra caligini profonde). Angelica and Medoro are saddened at having to leave the woods where they fell in love and Medoro carves their names into the trees as a memento (Aria:Verdi allori). Angelica is grateful to Orlando for having saved her life once and feels guilty for having lied to him, but tells herself that he will come to understand her love for Medoro, being in love himself (Aria:Non potrà dirmi ingrata). She takes a sad farewell of the beautiful grove where she first fell in love (Aria:Verdi piante). Orlando rushes in and attempts to murder Angelica, who calls in vain for Medoro to rescue her. Zoroastro conjures up some spirits to whisk Angelica away in a cloud. Orlando begins to lose his reason: he imagines himself to be dead and sees himself entering Hades. He experiences a vision of his hated rival in the embrace of Proserpina, queen of the underworld, but then notices that Proserpina is crying and feels pity for her.(Accompagnato:Ah! Stigie larve). Becoming infuriated again, Orlando rushes into the cave, but it splits open, revealing Zoroastro in a flying chariot. He puts Orlando into it and carries him away. Act 3 In a grove with palm trees - Medoro became separated from Angelica in the confusion and has returned to Dorinda's hut to seek refuge once more. He tells her he would love her if he could, but his heart is not his to give (Aria:Vorrei poterti amar). Dorinda comments on the whirlwind of passions caused by love (Aria:Amore è qual vento). Orlando appears and, addressing Dorinda as Venus, declares his love for her. Dorinda can see Orlando is still out of his senses, and this is even more apparent when he confuses her with a male enemy he had fought with previously. Zoroastro appears and orders his attendant spirits to transform the grove to a dark cave, where he will try to restore Orlando to sanity. He knows that tempests eventually recede, and calm will return (Aria:Sorge infausta una procella). Angelica finds Dorinda weeping and she explains that Orlando in his madness has burnt her cottage to the ground, killing Medoro in the process. Angelica is devastated and when Orlando appears she begs him to kill her too (Duet:: Finché prendi ancora il sangue). Orlando hurls Angelica into the cave and, imagining he has rid the world of all its monsters, lies down to rest. Zoroastro declares the time has come for Orlando's mind to be healed; a magical bird descends with a golden phial, the contents of which the sorcerer sprinkles on Orlando's sleeping face. As Orlando begins to feel the effects of the magic potion, he sings the aria, Gia l'ebro mia ciglio. Orlando awakes, restored to reason, but is horrified to learn that he has killed both Medoro and Angelica and begs for death himself. Zoroastro has saved Angelica and Medoro however; Orlando is overjoyed to see them and wishes them a happy life together. Dorinda will forget her sorrow and invites everyone to her cottage to celebrate (Chorus: Con un diverso ardor, gia che ciascun e pago). Context and analysis The German-born Handel, after spending some of his early career composing operas and other pieces in Italy, settled in London, where in 1711 he had brought Italian opera for the first time with his opera Rinaldo. A tremendous success, Rinaldo created a craze in London for Italian opera seria, a form focused overwhelmingly on solo arias for the star virtuoso singers. In 1719, Handel was appointed music director of an organisation called the Royal Academy of Music (unconnected with the present day London conservatoire), a company under royal charter to produce Italian operas in London. Handel was not only to compose operas for the company but hire the star singers, supervise the orchestra and musicians, and adapt operas from Italy for London performance. The Royal Academy of Music collapsed at the end of the 1728 - 29 season, partly due to the huge fees paid to the star singers. Handel went into partnership with John James Heidegger, the theatrical impresario who held the lease on the King's Theatre in the Haymarket where the operas were presented and started a new opera company with a new prima donna, Anna Strada. Handel decided to present a revised version of an earlier work to an English text, Esther, in concert form as an addition to the 1732 opera season, with the singers currently appearing in the Italian operas but no scenery or stage action. The work was extremely popular and thus the form of the English oratorio was invented, almost by accident. Also in 1732, the earlier English-language masque Acis and Galatea was revised and presented at the King's Theatre as an English language serenata and in March 1733 a new English oratorio, Deborah, was performed as part of Handel's season at the King's Theatre, with the stars of the Italian opera singing in English, and the composer / impresario was so confident of the work's success that he doubled the price of admission for the first performance, causing some resentment and comment in the press. These three English language works, Esther, Acis and Galatea and Deborah, all contained leading roles for the celebrated Italian castrato Senesino, a star of Handel's operas and a great draw for London audiences since 1720, but he was not comfortable singing in English and although all three works were popular with audiences, his pronunciation of the English texts drew some comment and ridicule. Orlando, an Italian opera with a starring role by Handel for Senesino, was originally scheduled to premiere on 23 January 1733 but an announcement was placed in the London press that the opening had been postponed until the 27th, "the principal performers being indisposed". The diarist who compiled what is known as "Colman's Opera Register" recorded after the premiere of Orlando:Orlando Furiose a New Opera, by Handel The Cloathes & Scenes all New. Extraordinary fine & magnificent – performed Severall times until Satturday. (New costumes and scenery were not provided for every new staging as is the custom today but were often taken from stock). Scottish politician and lawyer Sir John Clerk, also a musical connoisseur and a composer himself, saw Orlando in its original run of eleven performances and wrote:I never in all my life heard a better piece of musick nor better perform’d – the famous Castrato, Senesino made the principal Actor the rest were all Italians who sung with very good grace and action, however, the Audience was very thin so that I believe they get not enough to pay the Instruments in the orchestra. I was surprised to see the number of Instrumental Masters for there were 2 Harpsichords, 2 large basse violins each about 7 foot in length at least with strings proportionable that cou’d not be less than a ¼ of an inch diameter, 4 violoncellos, 4 bassoons, 2 Hautbois, 1 Theorbo lute & above 24 violins. These made a terrible noise & often drown’d the voices. One Signior Montagnania sung the bass with a voice like a Canon. I never remember to have heard any thing like him. Amongst the violins were 2 Brothers of the name Castrucci who play’d with great dexterity. Clerk notes the "thin" audience but the royal family attended almost every performance; after one the Queen suffered a slight accident as noted in the press:On Saturday Night last, as her Majesty was coming from the Opera House in the Hay-Market, the Fore Chairman had the Misfortune to slip, going down the step by Ozinda's Coffee-house near St. James's House, by which Accident the Chair fell, and broke the Glasses; but her Majesty happily got no Harm. The London press carried a notice on 2 June 1733:We are credibly inform’d that one Day last Week Mr. H–d–l, Director-General of the Opera-House, sent a Message to | could never love anyone but her, and offers to do anything to prove it, including fighting fierce monsters (Aria:Fammi combattere). As Orlando leaves, Medoro enters and asks Angelica who she was with. She explains that Orlando is a mighty warrior and besotted with her and advises that they should retreat to her kingdom in the east to escape his wrath. Dorinda is upset to see them embrace, but the lovers tell her not to be downhearted; one day she too will find love. Angelica presents Dorinda with a jewelled bracelet in gratitude for her hospitality (Trio:Consolati o bella). Act 2 In a forest - Dorinda, inconsolable over the loss of Medoro, listens to the melancholy song of the nightingale and finds it chimes with her mood (Arioso:Quando spieghi tuoi tormenti). Orlando demands to know why Dorinda has been telling people he is in love with Isabella. Dorinda denies this and says she was speaking not of him but of Medoro and Angelica's love. She shows him the bracelet she claims Medoro gave her and says she sees his face in every brook and flower (Aria:Se mi rivolgo al prato). Orlando recognises the bracelet as one he had given Angelica and is furious at her betrayal. He vows to kill her, then himself, and pursue her in Hell itself (Aria:Cielo! se tu il consenti). On one side, a grove of laurel trees, on the other, the entrance to a cave - Zoroastro advises Medoro and Angelica to flee Orlando's wrath and promises to protect them on their journey, advising them that they should always be guided by reason (Aria:Tra caligini profonde). Angelica and Medoro are saddened at having to leave the woods where they fell in love and Medoro carves their names into the trees as a memento (Aria:Verdi allori). Angelica is grateful to Orlando for having saved her life once and feels guilty for having lied to him, but tells herself that he will come to understand her love for Medoro, being in love himself (Aria:Non potrà dirmi ingrata). She takes a sad farewell of the beautiful grove where she first fell in love (Aria:Verdi piante). Orlando rushes in and attempts to murder Angelica, who calls in vain for Medoro to rescue her. Zoroastro conjures up some spirits to whisk Angelica away in a cloud. Orlando begins to lose his reason: he imagines himself to be dead and sees himself entering Hades. He experiences a vision of his hated rival in the embrace of Proserpina, queen of the underworld, but then notices that Proserpina is crying and feels pity for her.(Accompagnato:Ah! Stigie larve). Becoming infuriated again, Orlando rushes into the cave, but it splits open, revealing Zoroastro in a flying chariot. He puts Orlando into it and carries him away. Act 3 In a grove with palm trees - Medoro became separated from Angelica in the confusion and has returned to Dorinda's hut to seek refuge once more. He tells her he would love her if he could, but his heart is not his to give (Aria:Vorrei poterti amar). Dorinda comments on the whirlwind of passions caused by love (Aria:Amore è qual vento). Orlando appears and, addressing Dorinda as Venus, declares his love for her. Dorinda can see Orlando is still out of his senses, and this is even more apparent when he confuses her with a male enemy he had fought with previously. Zoroastro appears and orders his attendant spirits to transform the grove to a dark cave, where he will try to restore Orlando to sanity. He knows that tempests eventually recede, and calm will return (Aria:Sorge infausta una procella). Angelica finds Dorinda weeping and she explains that Orlando in his madness has burnt her cottage to the ground, killing Medoro in the process. Angelica is devastated and when Orlando appears she begs him to kill her too (Duet:: Finché prendi ancora il sangue). Orlando hurls Angelica into the cave and, imagining he has rid the world of all its monsters, lies down to rest. Zoroastro declares the time has come for Orlando's mind to be healed; a magical bird descends with a golden phial, the contents of which the sorcerer sprinkles on Orlando's sleeping face. As Orlando begins to feel the effects of the magic potion, he sings the aria, Gia l'ebro mia ciglio. Orlando awakes, restored to reason, but is horrified to learn that he has killed both Medoro and Angelica and begs for death himself. Zoroastro has saved Angelica and Medoro however; Orlando is overjoyed to see them and wishes them a happy life together. Dorinda will forget her sorrow and invites everyone to her cottage to celebrate (Chorus: Con un diverso ardor, gia che ciascun e pago). Context and analysis The German-born Handel, after spending some of his early career composing operas and other pieces in Italy, settled in London, where in 1711 he had brought Italian opera for the first time with his opera Rinaldo. A tremendous success, Rinaldo created a craze in London for Italian opera seria, a form focused overwhelmingly on solo arias for the star virtuoso singers. In 1719, Handel was appointed music director of an organisation called the Royal Academy of Music (unconnected with the present day London conservatoire), a company under royal charter to produce Italian operas in London. Handel was not only to compose operas for the company but hire the star singers, supervise the orchestra and |

Which men’s magazine was originally going to be called Stag Party | 'Playboy' was originally called 'Stag Party' - News18 'Playboy' was originally called 'Stag Party' First published: September 20, 2012, 8:48 PM IST | Updated: September 20, 2012 The first issue of the magazine was published in 1953, and featured screen goddess Marilyn Monroe. New Delhi: Playboy chief Hugh Hefner says initially he wanted to call his world-famous magazine Stag Party but decided to change it to Playboy at the last minute. It was Hefner's associate Eldon Sellers who suggested the title Playboy, the 86-year-old revealed in an interview to legendary tennis player Vijay Amritraj on CNN IBN's show 'Dimensions'. "I wasn't going to call the magazine Playboy. I wanted to call the magazine Stag Party, influenced by a cartoon book that I had. I was looking for a male figure of some kind and I thought of an animal in tuxedo will set us apart," Hefner told Amritraj during a conversation at the Los Angeles-based Playboy mansion. "At the very last minute I got a letter from the lawyer of Stag magazine saying that it was an infringement on their title. I was literally about a month from publishing date and I was already having second thoughts about the title. So at the very last minute changed the name and changed the image and called it Playboy and rest as you say is history," he added. The interview will be aired Saturday, with a repeat telecast Sunday. Playboy is a US men's magazine. It is popular for boldly featuring photographs of nude women, apart from regular articles and stories. The first issue of the magazine was published in 1953, and featured screen goddess Marilyn Monroe. |
