Margarita tutta la vita1/22/2024 The invisible thread of sight between lovers and their beloveds is a central theme in this programme. Treacherous and false nature of blind love. While the two characters wander sightless-Amaryllis because of the blindfold, Mirtillo because of his tormented love-Guarini's chorus bemoans the One, Amaryllis, isīlindfolded and accidentally ends up in the arms of the other, Mirtillo, who desires her, unbeknownst to her and the community. In the third act of the play, set in the idyllic pastoral world of Arcadia, two lovers play a game of “Blind Man's Bluff” (or Gioco della Cieca, as it is known in Italian). Thus comments the chorus in Guarini's play, “The Faithful Shepherd” (Il pastor fido) on two lovers' passionate but beleaguered love tale. “Blind love I do not trust to thee, that makes desires full of obscurity”. As Guarini wrote in his bittersweet ode to spring: “You, O Spring, do indeed return, but do not bring with you the happy days of my fortunate past”. Thus, Ferraraʼs golden age came to an abrupt end. But the Ferrareseʼs hopes in Margherita were in vain: Alfonso died heirless in 1597, the city was taken over by the Papal States soon after and what remained of the dʼEste family fled the city. It is not difficult to connect this image of Spring with Margherita, the Ferrareseʼs symbol of hope for a brighter future, a continuance of dʼEste rule. ![]() Of the year, mother of flowers and bringer of new love. Giovanni Battista Guariniʼs text “O Primavera” conveys a deep hope and longing for the renewal of spring: spring is described as youth His works in this programme include O Primavera and Cara la vita mia. The composer Giaches de Wert, Flemish by birth but an adoptive Mantuan, was known to have had close contact with the Concerto. Programme: tears and sighs are the central image both of Monteverdiʼs Dolci miei sospiri and Kapsbergerʼs Sʼio sospiro.īecause of Margherita di Gonzagaʼs birth-ties with Mantua, the Concerto delle Dame was closely associated with composers from the Mantuan court. As a counterpart to natural bodies of water are human tears, also a prominent feature in the chosen texts for this Thus, water is a parallel symbol in our programme: in an unusual arrangement of Girolamo Kapsbergerʼs Toccata arpeggiata, the sound of two plucked instruments creates a murmuring flux this is immediately followed by Torquato Tassoʼs ode to the exhilarating natural spectacle of dawn on the laguna set to music by Claudio Monteverdi in “Ecco mormorar lʼonde”. With whom the city fought constantly for domination of the region. Tonightʼs programme, which also creates a bridge between Ferrara and Venice, its powerful rival, This watery landscape was the inspiration for part of Other composers from Luzzaschiʼs entourage are also represented, including his Ferrarese-born student Girolamo Frescobaldi, whose diverse vocal output is represented by the wistful aria Voi partite mio sole for solo voice, and the lively three-voice setting Corilla, danzando sul prato.Īside from being a cultural landmark, Ferrara was an important trade centre: a crucial role in theĬityʼs flourishing was played by the Po Delta. His works for one, two and three sopranos, Tʼamo mia vita, Stral pungente dʼamore and Aura soave form the core of this programme. The composer most closely associated with the group was Luzzasco Luzzaschi. The Concerto, or the Dame di Ferrara, were famous for their virtuosic singing: their performances inspired composers across Italy to write for a similar ensemble. Margherita was an important musical patron, and had close ties with one of the most important ensembles in the Ferrarese court: the so-called Concerto delle Donne. The hopes of the cityʼs autonomy were put entirely on Alfonsoʼs third wife, Margherita di Gonzaga, who moved to Ferrara from Mantua to marry Alfonso in 1579, aged fifteen. Such as the Papal States, who were ready to take over the city should the lineage be interrupted. ![]() Ferrara was surrounded by powerful neighbours Producing a male heir to secure the dʼEste lineage. Despite this cultural blossoming, however, the Ferrarese dynasty was in danger of extinction: with two childless marriages behind him, Alfonso was in urgent need of The city was under the rule of Duke Alfonso II d'Este, notable patron of the arts: under his rule the Ferrarese court was a hub of musical excellence, attracting composers and musicians from afar. The inspiration for this programme is the musical life at the end of the 16th century at the Italian court of Ferrara. Canzoni and madrigals from the late 16th century in Ferrara

Cast cabin fever 20161/22/2024 ![]() ![]() When we arrive at the cabin Jeff and Marcy immediately start having sex, Bert heads off into the woods to shoot some squirrels with his air rifle, and Paul decides to pine over Karen, who he has fancied since they were kids but has yet to make a move. The weirdest thing about them is Dennis, the son of one of the shop workers who likes to bite people who sit next to him. The hillbillies are a little bit Royston Vasey, very casually racist, but not overly murderous like a lot of horror movies. The group are on their way to a cabin in the middle of the woods (standard) and stop at a small store on the way which is run by country bumpkin-type folk (again, standard) to pick up some supplies for their trip. ![]() I wonder how many groups of young people have spent the last few weeks of their lives studying for exams for no reason because they’ll be dead soon? So many horror movies start this way. We then cut to a group of college kids loaded into a car, celebrating the end of their finals. In his bid to rouse the dog, he causes it to split open and gush blood all over his face. This thing looks like it died about a month ago, and he’s there trying to tempt it with a tasty snack. A hermit who is smart enough to kill a rabbit, but not smart enough to realise that his dog is super dead from about a mile away. However, when the remake popped up on Netflix a couple of weeks ago, I thought I would give it a watch and see how the two movies matched up against each other.Ĭabin Fever opens with a hermit roaming the forest. Films that I went to see at the cinema are now being remade, which does nothing to make me feel less old. The fact that Cabin Fever (2002) has already been remade is even more shocking because it only came out 16 years ago. In this edition of Sometimes They Come Back, we’re looking at something that comes up quite a lot in horror movies – a remake that is basically a shot-for-shot re-do of the original movie, and leaves you questioning why they thought it was a good idea in the first place *cough* Psycho (1998) *cough*. Sometimes They Come Back is here to take a look at the horror genre and its love for remakes! We’ll be discussing both the original movie and its remake (sometimes multiple remakes) in detail before deciding who comes out on top! Are the originals always the best? Let’s find out! Cabin Fever (2002)

![]() The service provides an opportunity for users to “Skip the Line” at the airport, play a round of golf or enjoy a concert, all in exchange for contributing to the FWD.us political campaign. AllThingsD by press release – PRWeb: AllThingsD has announced the release of a new service for iPhone and iPad users, FWD.us. Users can perform tasks such as send a text message, read email, browse web pages, run a program or do some other task from their device. In addition to helping out the campaign, the app takes advantage of Apple Remote Desktop to allow users to log in to a remote desktop and perform tasks with the app. The idea behind the project is to give iPhone and iPad users a way to contribute to the FWD.us campaign and have their experience enhanced by the FWD.us service. As a result, when they approach the FWD.us skip the line kiosk, their account will be visible on the kiosk display. When they download the app, they will be required to enter their information and create a profile. From there they can skip the line for everything from concerts, to playtime, to airport lounge access. Users can use the web app to create a profile that will appear in the Favorites list on the iPhone or iPad. ![]() ![]() FWD.us takes advantage of the new Apple Remote Desktop feature available in iOS 7.0 and the new Parallels Desktop for Mac 5.1 for remote desktop for iOS (available in the Mac App Store). AllThingsD by press release () 10:00 PM PDT New York, Ap– PRWeb - AllThingsD by press release – PRWeb: AllThingsD has announced the release of a new service for iPhone and iPad users, FWD.us. The update also includes improvements to the app's media streaming features. The new version features changes for new and existing users. The autodeploy packager hasn't been updated in a while so will probably have to wait for Parallels to fix.Special Folder Icon Crack iTunes has been updated to version 7.0.2 for Mac OS X. Not the most elegant of solutions but it works. Osascript -e 'tell application "Terminal" to quit' Osascript -e 'tell application "Terminal" to do script "prlsrvctl install-license -k -deferred"' Terminal opens, runs the command, pauses for 15 seconds to give the command enough time to run, then closes. I previously had 10.2.0 up on the JSS and it deployed fine and testing the separate activation policy also worked fine.Ĭuriously, running the same exact command in the Terminal locally works fine, so for now I'm resorting to wrapping the licensing command using osascript for the user to run in Self Service. I also tried putting the serialization part into a separate script to run as a policy (prlsrvctl install-license -k -deferred) but that failed too. Seems Parallels installs fine for the most part but the autodeploy fails for me during the serialization part, so when the user opens Parallels, they're prompted to sign in to a Parallels account.

Xkcd sudo1/21/2024 And for an amusing look at how most people actually do choose passwords, check out Your Top 20 Most Common Passwords and The science of password selection. What do you think? Is it easy to remember the other passwords generated here? Do you see some way to improve the algorithm? Is there any merit to this password selection strategy?Īs far as password management goes, I’ve personally found KeePass to be an excellent solution. Will it be just as easy to remember other four-word combinations? I think we’re more likely to remember “correct horse battery staple” for those reasons. El pensamiento bsico es otorgar la menor cantidad de privilegios posible a un usuario mientras se le permite realizar una tarea. But the strip itself is interesting, takes a lot of concentration to understand, and incorporates a visual aid. Sudo es un programa de Linux destinado a permitir que un usuario use privilegios de root por un perodo de tiempo limitado para los usuarios y registre la actividad de root. Sure, a lot of readers will probably have that phrase memorized for a while. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Returns 'You are already running OS.'. The last panel claims that the reader has already memorized “correct horse battery staple”. sudo command executes the command with root privileges. It’s hard to be convinced about every detail in the strip, but it really had me thinking. Man pages are collections of manuals for different tools, commands, files, and functions on Unix-like systems which can be viewed with the tool man. sudo allows users to run a program with elevated permissions, as referenced in 149: Sandwich. In any case, you can view the JavaScript source code here. The title text refers to sudoers, a config file for the unix command sudo. This list doesn’t include “battery” or “staple”, so perhaps a better list is still possible. I scraped a list of 1949 words (close enough) from this site, which is based on the most frequent occurrences in newspapers. The xkcd strip suggests 11 “bits of entropy” per word, which can be achieved using a list of 211 = 2048 words. For example, “decimalisation contrapuntal assizes diabolism” is not particularly easy to remember, I’d say. What If 2 is now available in paperback in the UK is best viewed with Netscape Navigator 4. That’s important, because the more unusual words are used, the harder the password will be to remember. A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language. Other generators have popped up online, but unlike most of those, this generator only uses common English words. In case you missed the strip, here it is: (But if you’re just signing up for a kitten video forum, you’re probably safe.) If you now run the ls command at the terminal to view the contents of the current directory, you’ll see the ‘xkcdcomic. Use to download the image and save it as ‘xkcdcomic.png’ in the current directory. Use at your own peril! I’m not responsible for anything that happens as a result of your password choice. Set the URL of the XKCD Python comic image. Man: All those in favor of the bill say "aye.It’s a novel idea, but xkcd stops short of actually recommending such passwords, and so will I. Why mathematicians should run for Congress ![]() ![]() Heisenberg: You probably know too much about their momentum. Your gravitational pull is pretty severe. Man: Actually, I think it's all the weight you've been putting on.

Man: I find you more attractive than usual. These will be separated by double new lines.)) Jason: Sudo let me draw some strips for you. Munroe, through the telephone: Fat chance, kid. Munroe? I have a great idea! Let me draw some strips for you! But you can use sudo with this (and several other things) to do it anyway.

Spike dudley 20161/21/2024 ![]() Greenwald says that Stratus was one of her favorite people with whom to work. At the time, The Holly Cousins were involved in a feud with T & A ( Test, Albert, and manager Trish Stratus). Greenwald, however, had her first major run in the company as Molly Holly, where she joined her on-screen cousins Bob Holly and Crash Holly. In 2000, she reappeared in the World Wrestling Federation under the Lady Ophelia gimmick, wrestling dark matches and valeting for William Regal. While there, she squared off against The Kat, Bobcat, and Victoria. She became the manager of William Regal and was known as Lady Ophelia. Upon signing a contract with the World Wrestling Federation, she was sent to their training ground in Memphis Championship Wrestling to work off ring-rust. World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment/WWE (2000-present) Lady Ophelia (2000) In her final televised match, she teamed with Shawn Stasiak against Chris Candido and Tammy Sytch on the May 16, 2000, episode of WCW Worldwide. WCW released Greenwald, however, in August 2000 in a cost-cutting move. Independent female wrestlers, such as Dee Dee Venturi and Brandi Alexander, were also brought in to wrestle Mona. She embarked on mini-feuds with Madusa, Little Jeannie, and Asya. She then became Mona, a fan favorite, who wore a beauty pageant sash, tiara, white gloves, and heels to the ring and wrestled barefoot in a blue cocktail dress. Eventually, Savage betrayed Miss Madness by firing her from Team Madness along with Madusa after a championship loss. Behind the scenes, Greenwald and Madusa trained the other women of WCW at the WCW Power Plant. As part of the storyline, this villainous alliance, called Team Madness, would interfere in matches for the benefit of Savage. Savage asked Greenwald and Madusa to train his then-girlfriend Gorgeous George in real life, highlights of which were shown on WCW television. Greenwald debuted in WCW as the evil Miss Madness, one of Randy Savage's valets along with Gorgeous George and Madusa. World Championship Wrestling (1999–2000) In late 1999, she briefly feuded with Brandi Alexander while wrestling in the Florida independent circuit. ![]() She appeared with both World Championship Wrestling and the World Wrestling Federation as Starla Saxon, unsuccessfully challenging Jacqueline for the WWF Women's Championship on an October 1998 episode of Sunday Night Heat and on an episode of the U.K. On August 21, 1998, she defeated Malia Hosaka to win the New Dimension Wrestling Women's Title, but lost it one day later back to Hosaka. Greenwald wrestled on the independent circuit throughout 19, winning two championships. She debuted on August 2, 1997, in the World Professional Wrestling Federation (WPWF) under the ring name Starla Saxton. Greenwald began training as a wrestler under Dean Malenko in Tampa, Florida, in 1997. Professional wrestling career Early career (1997–1999) Īfter she graduated from Forest Lake Area High School in 1996, Nora left home with $200 and a '65 Oldsmobile, which she drove from Minnesota to Florida, worked at a Subway restaurant and as a telemarketer, and out of curiosity tried out for wrestling. At age 14, she broke the Minnesota state powerlifting record (75 pounds) for her age group by lifting 100 pounds. ![]() Greenwald was interested in appearing on American Gladiators and trained to be a powerlifter from age 14 to age 18. Greenwald was born in 1977 to Rick and Bonnie Greenwald. She now serves as a backstage producer on WWE programming. Molly Holly was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in the 2021 class. Holly continues to make sporadic appearances in WWE, including competing at WWE Evolution and in the 20, and 2022 Women's Royal Rumble. During her time with the WWF/WWE, Holly held the WWF Hardcore Championship once and the WWE Women's Championship twice. She was later aligned with The Hurricane. In 2000, Greenwald debuted in the then-WWF as part of The Holly Cousins stable, an alliance of storyline cousins. Holly began her professional wrestling career in WCW, where she also worked as a trainer. She is also known for her tenure in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) as Miss Madness and Mona from 1999 to 2000. She is currently signed to WWE as a producer and part-time wrestler, under the ring name Molly Holly. Nora Kristina Benshoof ( née Greenwald born on Septem ) is an American professional wrestler. |
