No, a lawyer is not required, but you will be at a serious disadvantage if you do not know the law and how to present your case. If you are representing yourself and you are not a lawyer, you can place yourself at a serious disadvantage by not having the training and experience to know the law, how to present your case, and how to focus primarily on these tasks when you also might have very strong personal concerns about the case and other demands on your time which limit you from doing all that is required. The OEA cannot help you prepare your case. Be aware that the other parties may employ attorneys and an attorney will always represent IDEM.

Герда Борман, уроджена Бух (; 23 жовтня 1909, Констанц — 23 березня 1946, Мерано, Південний Тіроль) — дочка голови Вищого партійного суду НСДАП Вальтера Буха і дружина одного з лідерів Третього Рейху Мартіна Бормана. Член НСДАП, висунула ідею полігамного «вимушеного шлюбу» в інтересах держави.

Біографія
Герда — старша дитина в сім'ї батьків Вальтера і Ельзи Бух. Після закінчення Першої світової війни її батько зблизився з націонал-соціалістами і зробив успішну кар'єру, ставши головою Вищого партійного суду НСДАП, що зіграло вирішальну роль у долі його дочки. У батьківському домі Герда отримала суперечливе виховання: з одного боку, батьки строго дотримувалися протестантського віросповідання, з іншого боку, з гордістю вселяли дітям ідеї націонал-соціалізму.

У 19 років Герда познайомилася з судимим за нанесення тілесних ушкоджень членом НСДАП Мартіном Борманом. Зростом нижчий дівчини на голову, він не сприймав серйозно симпатії Герди, але в квітні 1929 року офіційно попросив у Вальтера Буха руки його дочки. Бух дав свою згоду на шлюб дочки з великим небажанням. У тому ж році Герда Борман вступила в НСДАП. Весілля Герди і Мартіна Бормана відбулася 2 вересня 1929 року, свідками виступили Адольф Гітлер і Рудольф Гесс.

Навіть в партійних колах стосунки подружжя викликали подив: варто було Борману свиснути, і Герда була тут як тут, аж ніяк не страждаючи при цьому ні від такого ставлення до себе, ні від того, що чоловік зваблював жінок практично в її присутності. Проте, судячи з листування між подружжям, їх пов'язували дійсно міцні почуття.

Коли роман Мартіна Бормана з актрисою Манею Беренс став надбанням громадськості, всупереч загальним очікуванням Герда Борман не влаштувала скандал і не просто закрила на це очі, а навпаки  — дала на нього свою згоду і всіляко підтримувала чоловіка. У своїх листах до дружини Мартін Борман оповідав про свою зраду, а Герда давала йому свої поради.

Герду Борман хвилювало питання людських втрат у військових умовах і майбутнє німецького народу. Вона була переконана, що націонал-соціалізму необхідна радикально нова організація суспільства. Вона міркувала над можливостями скасування моногамії і впровадження ідеї вимушеного шлюбу. У лютому 1944 року Герда Борман виступила із закликом до співгромадян в інтересах суспільства вступати в кілька шлюбів одночасно. На її думку, кожен член суспільства чоловічої статі повинен користуватися законним правом вступати в кілька шлюбів. Незаконні дружини повинні були жити в таких же умовах, що і законні, і чоловік був зобов'язаний їх відвідувати один раз на два тижні. Позашлюбні діти повинні мати рівні права з народженими у шлюбі, а про поняття «подружня зрада» слід забути. Законопроєкти 1943 року передбачали норми, які зобов'язували кожну німецьку дружину народити від чоловіка чотирьох дітей, а після досягнення цієї кількості чоловік мав право заводити дітей з іншими жінками.

Незадовго до краху Третього Рейху Герда втекла в Південний Тіроль. Через кілька тижнів її доставили у військовий шпиталь, де їй була діагностована карцинома. 23 березня 1946 року Герда Борман померла, але не від раку, а від отруєння ртуттю, що використовувалася в курсі хіміотерапії.

Діти
У подружжя Борманом народилося десятеро дітей, з яких вижило дев'ять:

 Мартін Адольф Борман (14 квітня 1930 — 11 березня 2013) — названий на честь батька і хрещеного батька — Адольфа Гітлера;
 Ільза Борман (1931—1958; вцілілий близнюк, названа в честь хрещеної Ільзи Гесс, після перельоту Рудольфа Гесса до Англії ім'я було змінене на Айке)
 Ірмгард Борман (нар. 25 липня 1933)
 Рудольф Гергард Борман (нар. 31 серпня 1934; названий на честь Рудольфа Гесса, згодом у 1941 році ім'я було змінене на Гельмут)
 Генріх Гуго Борман (нар. 13 червня 1936; названий в честь свого хрещеного батька Генріха Гіммлера)
 Єва Ута Борман (нар. 4 серпня 1938: названа не на честь Єви Браун, з якою Мартін Борман не ладнав)
 Герда Борман (23 жовтня 1940 — 11 січня 2019)
 Фред Гартмут Борман (нар. 4 березня 1942)
 Фолькер Борман (1943—1946)

Після смерті Герди діти Борманів залишилися зі священиком Теодором Шміцем, який їх усиновив.

Q: How to get the parameter of http.send() for post method from the server side? I want to develop a website where the database is in the server. When a user types something in a text field, suggestions will come from the database (which is in the server) on the fly. I have thought of a solution like this:

*

*The client will send the request of a database query as the parameter of http.send() POST method.

*The server will take this parameter and run a SQL query.

*The server will send the resultset as an ArrayList to the client.

*The browser in the client side will show suggestions based on this ArrayList.

My question is, how the server will the parameter of http.send(). As I am generating the suggestions on the fly, maybe I have to use it inside javascript in my JSP page.
Note: I am using Spring MVC framework along with Oracle 11g database.

A: There are a few possibilities in Java on how you can achieve this. The answer you're probably looking for is something like this.
An other solution would be to use JSF components for example. Have a look at this PrimeFaces autocomplete showcase and MKYong's JSF tutorial.

Update On Sami Callihan's Impact Contract, Josh Mathews Addresses Impact's New Later Time Slot - Wrestling Inc.
Sami Callihan joined Impact on a one-year contract last November that was set to expire shortly. But with the success he had over the last year, Callihan decided to re-sign with Impact while many others chose to depart.
Nick Hausman of Wrestling Inc asked Callihan about his new deal during Impact Wrestling's latest Press Pass podcast earlier today.
"Well first, it's a sh-- ton of money because I'm the draw and they know they've got to keep me under contract even though they fine me every six months," said Callihan. "They know right now I'm the most watched thing on their television program, I'm the most talked about thing on their television program and oVe ain't going anywhere for a very long time."
Apart from Callihan sticking around with Impact, the other big news is that the Impact! show will be moving time slots. The show is moving from 8pm ET to 10pm ET, which certainly isn't ideal as they are no longer in primetime.
Nick asked Josh Matthews about the time change and Matthews explained why the air time doesn't matter that much in this day and age.
"We're all aware of the fact that moving from 8pm to 10pm…no one's really excited about that happening," replied Matthews. "But you roll with the punches and I think that Impact in 2018, rather than shy away from that, [we embrace it]. We did a little spot on "Impact Late Night" and you'll hear some things like "Impact After Dark" being said on commentary."
"That's the other thing about wrestling and TV in general in 2018. Most of us rely on our DVR services than appointment viewing. I'm a huge fan of shows like Manifest but I have no idea what day of the week it's on. I watch it on Hulu whenever I want so those are the kind of things that you have to look at. To me, the only appointment viewing is live sports. I think Impact could get to being appointment viewing and for our fans it should be appointment viewing, but the fact that it's on at 10 now, most of us will rely on DVRs to watch the show."
Impact! will make it's 10pm ET debut on Pop TV on Thursday, Oct. 25.

Soldiers needing replacement parts may turn to 3D printers in the future to rapidly deliver reliable and ultra-strong metal parts. Army researchers are looking at new technologies to create steel alloy parts from powder using a laser.
At the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command's Army Research Laboratory, materials manufacturing scientists say this technology may change everything.
"I think it's going to really revolutionize logistics," said Dr. Brandon McWilliams, a team lead in the lab's manufacturing science and technology branch. "Additive manufacturing is going to have a huge impact on sustainment."
While progress remains steady, McWilliams said realizing the dream of quickly printed, reliable 3D metal parts is still a long way off; however its benefits will be substantial.
"You can really reduce your logistics footprint," he said. "Instead of worrying about carrying a whole truckload, or convoys loads of spares, as long as you have raw materials and a printer, you can potentially make anything you need."
The researchers are using an alloy originally developed by the U.S. Air Force. The Army adapted the metal, called AF96, to powder form. Using a method called Powder Bed Fusion, the 3D printer's laser selectively melts the powder in a pattern. The printer then coats the build plate with another layer of powder and the process is repeated until the part is complete.
"We're able to print up parts with internal structures that they would not necessarily be able to create with that much dimensional accuracy where they try to use mill or machine part," said Dr. Andelle Kudzal, a materials engineer on McWilliam's team.
Holding the resulting part in your hand is telling. It feels like a piece of steel that was forged traditionally, but it has intricate design features that no mold could create. Army researchers said this steel alloy has amazing qualities and more importantly potential applications for ground vehicle replacement parts.
"This material that we've just printed and developed processing perimeters for is probably about 50 percent stronger than anything commercially available," McWilliams said.
For Army applications, the key to usage is certification. Will the part work as needed in a battlefield scenario?
"We've printed some empeller fans for the M1 Abrams [Main Battle Tank] turbine engine and we can deliver that part—they can use it, and it works," McWilliams said. "But it's not a qualified part. In terms of a battlefield scenario that may be good enough to be able to get your tank running again for hours or days if that's important to the mission, but on the other hand, we still need to be able to answer, does this perform as good as the OEM [original equipment manufacturer] part? Does this perform better?"
The researchers said it comes down to two real strategies. One is for battlefield sustainment, the logistics piece—the replacement of existing parts and supporting legacy systems, but the second strategy is about futures systems.
"That's where we're more integrated with the OEMs and industry to see the things they're working on and see how we can make things better to really push the state-of-the-art," McWilliams said.
The Air Force initially developed this alloy for bunker-busting bomb applications. They needed a metal that was very high-strength and high-hardness, but they also needed it to be economical.
"The nice thing about that for the Army is that it has wide ranging applications. We have interest from the ground combat vehicle community, so it could be used for replacement parts," McWilliams said. "A lot of our parts in ground vehicles now are steel. So this could be dropped in as a replacement not having to worry about material properties because you know it's going to be better."

The laboratory is working closely with industry and academic researchers to model new alloy designs, perform computational thermodynamics and expedite the process to get the materials to Soldiers.
"We've developed a road map and that's an integrated plan that's now focused on supporting our modernization priorities, but we're also tied closely to the ground combat vehicle community," McWilliams said.

WARRE
Warren Wright Sr.
Warren Wright Sr. Explained
Warren Wright Sr. (September 25, 1875 Springfield, Ohio – December 28, 1950 Miami Beach, Florida), was the owner of one of America's most successful Thoroughbred horse racing operations.
Wright was born in Ohio and raised in Chicago. In 1914, he became chairman of Chicago's Calumet Baking Powder company. He took the reins from his father, William Monroe Wright (1851 - 1931) the founder of the company . He guided it so prosperously that Calumet Baking Powder was sold for $32 million in the summer of 1929 to a New York company, Postum. Postum, with numerous acquisitions, soon became General Foods. The purchase and subsequent Wall Street Crash of 1929, just months later, left the Wrights among the wealthiest people in America during the Great Depression.[1]
Warren Wright Sr. would also make his name and that of the family business the "gold standard" for Thoroughbred horse racing and breeding. William Monroe Wright had moved a Standardbred horse farm from Illinois to Kentucky in 1924. Upon the elders death in 1931, Warren converted the Lexington farm, which bore the company name, from Standardbreds to Thoroughbreds. During Wright's 20-year reign, Calumet Farm would become a dominant American stable and a tourist destination in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. Calumet Farm was often compared to the New York Yankees (baseball), Boston Celtics (basketball) and Montreal Canadiens (hockey), as a sports dynasty.
With Ben A. Jones as his trainer, Bull Lea as his main stallion, and a bevy of choice broodmares, Wright bred and raced winners of five American Horse of the Year titles in the 1940s alone. They were: Whirlaway (1941 & 1942), Twilight Tear (1944), Armed (1947), and Citation (1948). Additionally, Calumet's Whirlaway (1941) and Citation (1948) won the United States Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing,[2] and were national fan favorites. Wright won four Kentucky Derbys in his lifetime. After his death, his widow Lucille Parker Wright - who had married Admiral Gene Markey - carried on the tradition and won another four as Calumet Farm set the record of eight official Derby winners. Its racing silks were known throughout the land as the famous "devil's red and blue".[3]
In 1934, Mr. Wright had given National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame inductee Eddie Arcaro his start by putting him under contract and letting him ride at Narragansett Park during its inaugural year. Arcaro would ride three of Calumet's Derby winners and both Triple Crown winners.[4]
In late summer of 1949, Mr. Wright suffered a heart attack. Just after his 75th birthday, on December 28, 1950, he died at his mansion on Miami Beach, Florida. His funeral and burial were back in Lexington, Kentucky. Warren Wright Sr. has a Memorial Marker at Thoroughbred Park in Lexington, Kentucky.[5]

Washington, D.C. – On January 5, 2018, officials from the United States and the Republic of Korea met at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative to advance talks related to the U.S.-Korea (KORUS) Free Trade Agreement, including negotiations on Agreement modifications and amendments. The United States delegation was led by Michael Beeman, Assistant U.S. Trade Representative for Japan, Korea and APEC. The Republic of Korea delegation was led by Ms. Myung-hee Yoo, Director General from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE).
Both sides engaged on their priority areas of interest during the day-long session. The United States discussed proposals to move towards fair and reciprocal trade in key industrial goods sectors, such as autos and auto parts, as well as to resolve additional cross-cutting and sector-specific barriers impacting U.S. exports.
At the conclusion of the session today, Ambassador Robert Lighthizer said, "We have much work to do to reach an agreement that serves the economic interests of the American people. Our goals are clear: we must achieve fair and reciprocal trade between our two nations. We will move forward as expeditiously as possible to achieve this goal."
Both sides agreed to follow-up to discuss timing for the next meeting in the very near term.
At the direction of President Trump, in July 2017 Ambassador Lighthizer initiated talks to consider matters affecting the operation of the KORUS FTA, including amendments and modifications to resolve several problems regarding market access in Korea for U.S. exports and, most importantly, to address the significant trade imbalance. In 2017, the United States and Korea convened two specials sessions of the KORUS Joint Committee, which were held on August 22, 2017 and October 4, 2017. This meeting was the first held between both sides since the completion of related domestic procedures in Korea in late December 2017.

At the end of 2015, for the first time ever, it became possible to ride Uber for Bitcoin. This was made possible with Coinbase's Shift Card. The Shift Card allows you to spend bitcoins like regular debit or credit. It costs $10 to receive, with fees similar to a regular debit card.
Coinbase introduced Shift Card – the first US-issued bitcoin debit card, built with the Coinbase API – in November last year.
One of the more notable highlights is its successful expansion beyond the US. Coinbase moved into Europe not much more than a year ago. Now, the company reports, the majority of its users reside outside of the US. The proportion of international users grew from 44% to 51% during 2015. The fastest growing markets are Brazil, the Philippines, and Indonesia.
The PYMNTS team caught up with experts in the payments field to ask them their views on industry trends, predictions for the future and what their ideal payments system looks like. Here's what Adam White, Vice President and Product Manager at Coinbase, had to say.
Coinbase is seeking to expand its bitcoin buying and selling services to new Asian and Latin American markets in 2016.

Fred Ehrsam | Coinbase - Created a PayPal-esque wallet for Bitcoin. He's raised $31 million, and Coinbase is now used by 1.3 million consumers and is adding major merchants like Overstock.com, Google and Dish.
Coinbase, the Andreessen Horowitz-backed company that helps businesses process bitcoin payments, is trying to make it easy for businesses to give discounts to shoppers who pay in bitcoin. The company is today unveiling a tool that automates the discount, so businesses can check a box to deduct, say, one percent or five percent from every single purchase made in bitcoin.
Bitcoin exchange Coinbase announced that it acquired the team behind social bookmarking service Kippt and Inc, its business messaging product. Coinbase and Kippt were both part of the same Y Combinator class in 2012.
Coinbase announced its acquisition of the Kippt team. Kippt is a startup that focuses on "finding, reading, storing, searching and sharing information on the web." The move seems to signify an effort to bring cleaner, easy-to-use user interfaces for Bitcoin applications.
Coinbase describes itself as the largest bitcoin platform for merchant payment processing. Based in San Francisco, it handles bitcoin payments for 28,000 merchants, and arrived at Finovate with the goal of convincing more retailers to accept the digital currency.
Ryan McGeehan has recently announced on Facebook that he is leaving his role at Facebook as its Director of Security Incident Response, and taking up a security-related role at Coinbase.
Bitcoin was a big topic of conversation at South by Southwest, especially after Newsweek's cover story on the identity of the mysterious Bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto. At SXSW, Ehrsam explained why this is irrelevant to the future of Bitcoin. He said he thinks 2014 will see a critical mass of merchants wanting to get into Bitcoin, so now it's just a matter of time before regular people get on board with the early adopters, miners, libertarians, and geeks.
Coinbase co-founder Brian Armstrong named to Business Insider's "Coolest People in Tech"
Brian Armstrong and his Bitcoin startup, Coinbase, were the recipients of high-profile VC Fred Wilson's first investment in nearly two years. In December, Coinbase raised a $25 million Series B round from Andreessen Horowitz and added partner Chris Dixon to its board.
The retailer partnered with Coinbase on January 9 to let consumers purchase items with the digital currency, meaning the milestone was achieved in less than two months.
Coinbase today announced a new milestone: over 1 million consumer wallets, up from just 13,000 at the start of 2013.
Personal finance app Mint is integrating with Bitcoin wallet service Coinbase, so bitcoin currency owners can quickly track how much their stash is worth and compare this value to their other financial accounts.
Overstock.com is now accepting payments in bitcoin, making it the first major online retailer to embrace the increasingly popular but controversial digital currency. Coinbase runs a system that manages bitcoin transactions, not only for businesses like Overstock, but for about 750,000 individuals.
As Bitcoin gradually becomes a mainstream phenomenon, Coinbase is trying to make it easy to use. The former Goldman Sachs currency trader is attempting to build "the PayPal for Bitcoin."
Coinbase, the Bitcoin digital wallet service that recently raised a hefty $25 million, is upping its focus on merchants after it released its first stand alone point-of-sale app to allow retailers to accept payment via Bitcoin on a mobile device.

Coinbase Inc., a provider of online Bitcoin accounts and transaction services, raised $25 million in funding led by Andreessen Horowitz.
Andreessen Horowitz is buying into the growing market for bitcoins. The prominent Silicon Valley venture capital firm co-led by Marc Andreessen, the Netscape co-founder, is investing about $20 million into Coinbase, which provides "wallets" for the digital currency.
Coinbase, a start-up that lets people trade Bitcoins, has raised $25m (£15m) in venture capital funding - the largest by a Bitcoin start-up.
What is the center of the Bitcoin universe? With a completely decentralized digital currency like Bitcoin, it's hard to say, but today, Silicon Valley took a serious step toward claiming those bragging rights.
Bitcoin's price may be rising and falling day-by-day, but the virtual currency remains a hot topic for the tech industry and investors. Reflecting optimism in the space, Coinbase — a popular Bitcoin wallet service — has closed its $25 million Series B round led by Andreessen Horowitz.
With Coinbase Inc. raising $25 million from Andreessen Horowitz and others, it's not only the largest venture round on record for a Bitcoin startup–according to Dow Jones VentureSource; it's actually more than all venture capital invested into all Bitcoin startups combined during the past 15 months.

Coinbase has raised $25 million in a Series B round led by Andreessen Horowitz in the largest funding to date for a company focused on the Bitcoin digital currency. Existing investors Union Square Ventures and Ribbit Capital also participated.
Coinbase, one of the largest U.S.- based Bitcoin exchanges and a Bitcoin Black Friday sponsor, will be waiving its transaction fees on Friday. The exchange, which has raised more than $6 million of investment capital from major Silicon Valley players, usually charges a 1 percent fee for buying and selling bitcoins.
The exuberance surrounding the bitcoin is back. The digital currency soared to a new record high today, hitting $675 after trading in the $400s only yesterday. So how can you get in on the action if you want to invest in this highly volatile currency? Jordan Wathen of The Motley Fool say for U.S. investors, it's as easy as opening up an account with Coinbase.
One popular exchange is Coinbase, https://coinbase.com/, which links bitcoin wallets to U.S. bank accounts. Other exchanges, such as https://localbitcoins.com/, serve as a marketplace for people seeking to buy or sell bitcoins.
Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, is a hard man to track down. It took CoinDesk months to get him on the phone. "Things have been busy!" he said. No wonder. Armstrong is leading the charge to make bitcoin a mainstream currency. His firm specializes in services that make it easy to use.
COINBASE MAKES BITCOIN BUYING MORE ACCESSIBLE WITH "INSTANT PURCHASES"
The purchase of virtual currency Bitcoin has slowly become easier over the years, and now the Bitcoin wallet service Coinbase has added the ability to "buy up to 50 Bitcoins instantly" for verified accounts.
COINBASE OFFERS NEW ID CHECKS FOR HEAVY, IMPATIENT BITCOIN USERS - BUT WHY?
All users of the Bitcoin exchange and wallet outfit Coinbase have to identify themselves to a degree, but those wanting to buy higher volumes at high speed now have to go through a fuller ID check.
The newest addition to the growing list of companies to support Bitcoin — which includes Reddit, Mega, WordPress.com, Expensify, Namecheap, the Internet Archive, and countless others – the dating site has partnered with Y-Combinator-backed Coinbase, a platform for buying and selling the digital currency, to expand its payment options.
Coinbase scored a huge partnership today, as social discovery and discussion site Reddit has just launched an integration that allows its users to pay for "Reddit Gold" using bitcoin with Coinbase's system.
Customers of Coinbase, a platform for buying and selling the digital currency, have bought or sold more than $1 million worth of Bitcoins in the past 30 days.
Incubator Y Combinator held its fifteenth Demo Day for its latest batch of 75 companies to pitch to investors Tuesday.
The price of Bitcoins surged this week, rising above $9 for the first time in almost a year. The increase suggests growing public interest in the peer-to-peer cryptocurrency. Last month, we marked the one-year anniversary of the Bitcoin bubble popping. We noted that after plunging for the last six months of 2011, the price of Bitcoin had begun to stabilize around $5. But almost as soon as we published that article, the currency began appreciating rapidly. Today, one Bitcoin is worth about $9.20—a 40 percent increase in a month.
Does an Internet-only currency — not backed by any government entity — have a chance to become the way merchants and consumers transact business? Coinbase not only believes so, but it has talked investors into giving it some start-up capital to build a much easier way for nontechnical users to pay with Bitcoin.

Sigma fp is so small it literally fits in your trouser pocket!
Sigma's new full-frame mirrorless camera really has been cut down to size
(Image credit: Digital Camera World)
Sigma's new full-frame mirrorless camera is getting its first public outing this weekend at the IBC 2019 broadcasting trade expo in Amsterdam. The Sigma fp goes on sale later this year as the company works on finalizing the firmware for the camera ahead of its release.
But the one immediate thing that strikes you about the Sigma fp is its size... or rather the lack of it. This is one seriously small camera. We knew that without a built-in eyelevel view, and without a mechanical shutter, that this was going to be very small for a full-frame mirrorless camera. But you don't really appreciate this until you see it...
The camera is so small small in fact that the man on the Sigma stand, literally pulled it out of the pocket of his chinos to let us get a closer look! Sure it did not have a lens on it at the time... but that is an impressive party trick nonetheless!
• Sigma fp hands-on preview
But the Sigma stand at IBC also made it clear that the Sigma fp is just the foundation stone for a system that it is building for this camera - and not just through the lenses available on the L-mount roadmap, but also through the cine lenses from Sigma and others that can be fitted to it.

Fitted with a large Sigma cine lens, the fp body is swamped - but shows that this is a camera that is designed in a modular way.... like old medium format film cameras, or high-end modern cinema cameras like those made by Red.
The Sigma fp is due to go on sale later this fall, with an anticipated retail body-only price of 'under $3,000'.

"Arise! Shine! [Arise, shine] For your light arrives!
Within 50 years after the printing of the King James Bible, William Erbery, a priest in the Church of England, wrote about Isaiah 60:1, using the phrase we have today, rise and shine.
In the early 1900s, rise and shine became a wake-up call in the US military, leading to its common use today. Some believe that shine for the soldiers refers to their polishing their boots.

The unifying link on these three discs is that each features pianist Rasa Vitkauskaite. On two of them she is joined by clarinettist Jonathan Cohler who professes his aim to marry "two desires: to play music that I love, and to expand my repertoire and the repertoire for the clarinet in general." In fact the transcriptions recorded on the first disc entitled Romanza already existed but perhaps are not so widely known as the original versions. For this reason alone the disc would have been welcome. Add to this the amazing ability that Jonathan Cohler has on his instrument plus a brilliant and sympathetic partner in the shape of Lithuanian pianist Rasa Vitkauskaite and this CD has a head start. The choice of repertoire may be unusual, mixing as it does the supreme romantic Robert Schumann with Prokofiev, stalwart leader of the "anti-romantic" movement. In fact it works wonderfully well since Prokofiev's sonata is anything but 'serious'; rather it is energetically light-hearted and full of high spirits. There are barely a few moments where a darker edge can be discerned.
It is curious to read that it is reported that Schumann was displeased with his Sonata No.1 in A Minor, Op.105 commenting "I did not like the first Sonata for Violin and Piano; so I wrote a second one, which I hope has turned out better." We can beg to differ and history has judged it much more kindly than Schumann himself. It was composed in four days and has such a fundamentally gorgeous flow to it that it could hardly fail to enthral in almost any combination of instruments. It will always feel at home as if originally composed for whatever it is being played on. I find that when a transcription is as successful as it is here it is difficult while listening to recall its original pairing. There is no doubt that had Schumann ever heard it played as here he would have thoroughly approved or even thought "Now why didn't I think of composing it for clarinet and piano myself?" The same goes for the Three Romances, Op.94 which date from 1849, an amazingly prolific year when almost forty new works poured from him. These short pieces are deliciously simple and affecting concoctions and numbers two and three will surely be immediately recognisable. Originally composed for either oboe and piano or violin and piano they again seem totally natural on clarinet. Schumann was torn in his early years between the twin loves of music and poetry; we are fortunate that music won out though his music embodies the poetic in so many ways that we have been left with the best of both worlds.
Prokofiev's lively and infectious Sonata in D Major, Op.94 was composed in 1943 and must have been received joyfully by a population in the Soviet Union hungry for any light relief in what was an exceedingly difficult time during the most terrifying war: 1943 was the year of the Battle of Stalingrad after which the tide was turned and the writing was on the wall for Nazi Germany. Once again the piece seems absolutely right on the clarinet and I enjoyed the extra richness of sound it gives over the thinner sound of the flute for which it was originally intended. Prokofiev's cheekily jaunty style reminded me of the clarinet's role in bringing to life the cat in his Peter and the Wolf. A master of melody Prokofiev's style is so immediately identifiable and his quirky sense of humour is in full display in this supremely satisfying work.
It is a neat way of closing this disc to have chosen yet another totally different composer. I am pleased to have been introduced to the music of Carlos Guastavino, an Argentinean from an Italian immigrant family. He wrote a fair amount for clarinet which was dedicated to a particular clarinettist who became a lifelong friend of the composer, one Luis Rossi. It was Rossi who requested permission to transcribe Guastavino's Rosita Iglesias the seventh of his collection entitled Las Presencias. The latter was composed for violin and piano and later arranged by the composer for viola and piano. I enjoyed this ravishing beautiful tuneful music. I also warmed to Guastavino especially when I read in the notes that he was shunned by many other composers at the time he was most active for being a "melodist" when atonal music was in vogue. His retort, with which I totally agree, was "I love melody, I love to sing. I refuse to compose music only intended to be discovered and understood by future generations." I am reminded how a similarly ridiculous attitude was prevalent in Britain at the time when the music that was preferred and promoted by the controllers of both the BBC Proms and BBC Radio's Third Programme was atonal to the point of pain for many listeners. These music dictators refused to entertain music from the likes of Bertold Goldschmidt and George Lloyd, the latter reduced to earning a living cultivating mushrooms. Guastavino's delightful folk-based little gems, the aforementioned Rosita Iglesias and before it Tonada y Cueca are as perfectly suited to the clarinet as, no doubt, they are to the original configurations. Tonada was originally intended for piano solo while Cueca was the final song of his cycle of Twelve Popular Songs for voice and piano. Guastavino combined and transcribed these songs especially for Luis Rossi following a request from Rossi, aged just 16 to write something for him. Guastavino responding in three days to the young man who had so impressed him just a year before. This is a truly lovely disc of overwhelmingly tuneful and superb music given a refreshing extra dimension in these brilliant transcriptions.
Moving on to the next catalogue number in this trio of discs we have the solo debut disc of Rasa Vitkauskaite given the title Reflections. For this launch of her solo recording career she has chosen well. She offers a good spread of composers from Beethoven to a living composer (Lowell Liebermann), starting with Ravel (died in 1937) and ending with Guastavino (see above) who died in 2000. Already an accomplished accompanist with Jonathan Cohler for over seven years Vitkauskaite has established an enviable reputation as an intelligent performer who injects insight into every note and whose phrasing is nigh on perfect. Those qualities are vital when it comes to interpreting the music of Ravel and particularly so when it concerns his set of piano pieces entitled Miroirs. When you listen to Une barque sur l'océan for example you can hear how precise her playing is and how it enables the notes to illustrate to perfection the watery nature embodied in the piece. It is breathtakingly beautiful and it is all you can do not to hear it again immediately rather than allowing the disc to progress to the next piece. However, all of them are just as ravishingly beautiful. Ravel's evocation of bells in his La vallée des cloches closes the work and proves a perfect vehicle for Ms Vitkauskaite's talent. On this hearing I'd love to hear her interpretations of Debussy's piano music for she certainly gets inside the impressionistic nature of Ravel's music so it seems logical to include some Debussy in a forthcoming disc.
The name of Lowell Liebermann is not well known but on the strength of this piece, one of his most often recorded works, he certainly should be. The New York Times described Liebermann as, "as much a traditionalist as an innovator" and listening you can understand why, His Gargoyles was commissioned by the Tcherepnin Society, for perhaps the best known of this musical dynasty, Alexander Tcherepnin could also be described in similar terms. This set of four pieces was given its title after its composition but one can readily see how the composer decided it would be an appropriate. It includes some manic passages that are surely highly demanding to play but which are here made to sound easy.
What could be more of a contrast to the generally simple and gently impressionist musical painting of Ravel's Miroirs and the demonic atmosphere created by Liebermann's Gargoyles than the total brilliance of Beethoven's writing? However, having established her credentials as soloist with the preceding two works the pianist here shows that she can voice every emotion and every state inferred from gentle lullaby-like phrasing to volcanic outbursts. I don't — because I can't — sit listening with the score in front of me to see if every quaver is accurately captured, rather I let my ears tell me whether the pace, the phrasing and the accuracy appears correct and pleasing. I don't own another account of this sonata that I would place above this one and I'd be as pleased to listen to it as to any of them.
To finish off we have another complete contrast with Guastavino's Sonatina in G Major, a beautifully measured work that wears its South American folk rhythms lightly yet unmistakably. It's a pleasure to hear. The pianist's notes explain how Guastavino was always in the shadow of his better known contemporaries Ginastera and Piazzolla. For me his writing is just as beguiling as that of Ginastera and far better than anything I've ever heard by Piazzolla who seems one-dimensional to me, rarely stepping outside his tango comfort zone. Once again Rasa Vitkauskaite has the composer and his intentions at the forefront of her mind and turns in a great interpretation of this vibrant and attractive work.
This is an extremely satisfying and thrillingly executed programme which should encounter no difficulties in finding its way onto the shelves of many music-lovers around the world. It is a well constructed and thoughtful programme that will educate as well as please any listener.
The final disc of the three is one where we return to Cohler and Vitkauskaite - this time for an American Tribute. Once again instead of concentrating solely on well known composers we have a disc where five of the six are anything but. I'd say it's also a tribute to both programmers and the record label for helping to educate the public — always something of a commercial risk. I take issue with parts of the opening statement in the notes from the performers about the status of the USA. That said, I am happy to acknowledge the incredible range of American music which is very much due to the melting pot of cultures that have contributed to its infinite variety. America's music is always exciting and full of self confidence which makes it so instantly attractive.
A perfect introduction to the disc is a piece by Leonard Bernstein who was as supreme a composer as he was a conductor. His Sonata from 1942 is a brilliantly effusive celebration and full of life just like its creator. It calls for amazing virtuosity on the part of the clarinettist which thankfully causes no problems whatsoever for Jonathan Cohler. Surely this work should be in the repertoire of every clarinettist.
Victor Babin composed few works but was very well known as one half of the piano duo with his wife Vitya Vronsky. They were celebrated for their interpretations of Rachmaninov who became a personal friend of theirs. Hillandale Waltzes was a gift to the woman who facilitated the creation of Hillandale, a suburb outside Washington D.C. comprising 14th century style Tuscan houses, as a retreat from the city. The waltzes are cleverly based upon a theme of German composer Johann Nepomuk Hummel (1778-1837), whose trumpet concerto is so well known. It is a theme and nine variations, each with a name (elegant, passionate, sad, flying) and finishing with a Valse oubliée (forgotten waltz) in which we hear a return of the original theme. The waltzes were written for clarinet and piano and have been published in an edition by the clarinet professor at Kent State University, Dennis Nygren. They are as delightful as they are varied and work wonderfully well for clarinet and piano, the clarinet providing a brilliant contrast to the piano.
Robert Muczynski of Polish and Slovak descent is another whose music is less well known than it ought to be and his show-stopping opener to his set of four Time Pieces proves a real test of a clarinettist's mettle. The reflective nature of the work's Andante espressivo is superbly expressed whilst the ensuing movement has a beautiful piano part that one would love to linger longer. The final piece opens with the clarinet playing alone, the piano waiting for almost two minutes before joining in and increasing the tempo. The infusion of jazzy rhythms in this and so many other American works is a feature that has almost become expected. American composers certainly know how to use the idiom successfully and their inclusion always seems perfectly natural.
Simon Sargon is another name new to me and his KlezMuzik is a delicious combination of all that is best in Klezmer but with a 'classical' edge. Sargon's background pinpoints the melting-pot nature of America which helps explain how incredibly rich and varied are its musical influences. He is of Indian and Israeli descent and is renowned for his contribution to the musical life of synagogues around the US. Klezmer is Jewish music that originated in Eastern Europe and which is particularly expressive of human emotions especially sadness and joy often replicating the human voice. This explains why the clarinet is a particularly important ingredient in this music.
Dana Wilson's piece Liquid Ebony also hints at Klezmer in amongst all kinds of other influences. This composer likes to draw upon musical traditions from around the world though this composition is rooted in Eastern Europe. As he explains, the clarinet has an almost unique ability to "express both exuberant joy and dark pathos ... both almost at once, moving with liquid grace from one to the other." The first two movements are quiet and reflective while the closer, is as Sargon describes it, "a Bulgarian romp amidst an ominous reality."
The final three pieces on this intriguing and highly enjoyable disc are by Cuban-born Paquito D'Rivera who draws upon the twin influences of jazz and rock 'n' roll as well the dance traditions of Latin America. The first of his three works here is the première recording of the clarinet and piano version of D'Rivera's Invitación al Danzón. The second, Vals Venezolana and the last piece Contradanza have been arranged for many different instruments, including flute, bassoon, clarinet, horn and saxophone each with piano accompaniment. These are effervescent celebrations of life and music — a perfect way to sign off this disc.
Jonathan Cohler and Rasa Vitkauskaite work so well together they almost sound joined at the musical hip. Each is a master of his and her chosen instrument. Once again as with the first disc reviewed here, Romanza, this disc is of a well thought out and thoroughly pleasing programme that introduces several new composers to listeners who will be encouraged to explore more of their works. The sound is crystal clear and perfectly balanced and the booklet notes are copious and extremely informative though as I've indicated such notes are not really the place for polemics proclaiming the superiority of one country over all others. That said the whole package in each case is first class and I have no hesitation in wholeheartedly welcoming these discs.

Ongaku have asked me to bring the following to readers' attention. The inspiration and motivating force behind the American Tribute disc (Ongaku Records 024-125) are a response to the Boston Marathon bombings which took place in 2013. Mr. Cohler and Ms. Vitkauskaite dedicate the disc "to the memory of those who died and in support of those who were injured on that terrible day". $1 from each CD sold goes to the victims and their families.

"Man in the Rain" je píseň britského multiinstrumentalisty Mika Oldfielda. Vydána byla jako jeho třicátý osmý singl na podzim 1998 a v britské hitparádě se neumístila.

Singl "Man in the Rain" pochází z Oldfieldova alba Tubular Bells III, které vyšlo v létě téhož roku. Píseň "Man in the Rain" napsal Oldfield krátce po známém hitu "Moonlight Shadow", který vyšel v roce 1983 a kterému se "Man in the Rain" hudebně velmi podobá. Na instrumentálním albu Tubular Bells III původně neměla tato píseň být. Vydavatelství ale chtělo nějaký potenciální rádiový hit a tak Oldfield vytáhl "ze šuplíku" právě "Man in the Rain", kterou nazpívala Cara Dillon.

Název "Man in the Rain" použil Oldfield také u pracovní verze písně "Heaven's Open", jejíž demo se zpěvem Barryho Palmera měl přichystáno pro album Islands. Tato píseň ale nakonec vyšla až pod názvem "Heaven's Open" na stejnojmenném albu.

Na singlu se kromě písně "Man in the Rain" nachází ještě skladby "Serpent Dream" a "The Inner Child" ze stejného alba, které byly nahrány na koncertní premiéře Tubular Bells III 4. září 1998.

Seznam skladeb
 "Man in the Rain" (Oldfield) – 4:01
 "Serpent Dream (Live)" (Oldfield) – 3:00
 "The Inner Child (Live)" (Oldfield) – 4:43
