text:
Irrelohe is an opera in three acts by the Austrian composer Franz Schreker, libretto by the composer.

Composition history
Schreker wrote the libretto in a very short time (just a few days) in 1919.  The work takes its name from a train station called Irrenlohe which Schreker passed through during a journey to Nuremberg in March 1919.  Composition occupied Schreker from 1920 until 1922. The score was published in 1923 by Universal Edition Vienna.

Performance history

The opera was first performed on 27 March 1924 at the Stadttheater Köln, conducted by Otto Klemperer.  Productions in a further seven cities followed (including Stuttgart, Frankfurt and Leipzig), but critical response was mixed and, together with changing audience tastes and the complexity of the score, the work failed to maintain its place in the repertoire.

The first production in modern times was at the Bielefeld Opera in 1985, followed by a concert performance in Vienna in 1989. Further stagings have taken place at the Vienna Volksoper (2004), the Bonn Opera (2010), the Pfalztheater Kaiserslautern (2015) and Opéra de Lyon (2022).

Roles

Instrumentation
The orchestral score requires:
3 flutes (all doubling piccolo), 3 oboes (3rd doubling English horn), 3 clarinets (in A/B-flat, 3rd doubling clarinet in E-flat), bass clarinet in B-flat (doubling basset horn in F), 2 bassoons, contrabassoon;
6 horns in F, 4 trumpets in C, 3 trombones, bass tuba;
2 sets of timpani, 3 high kettle drums, percussion (9 players, including xylophone, glockenspiel and 3 anvils), 2 harps, harpsichord, celesta, guitar, mandolin;
strings (16 violins I, 14 violins II, 12 violas, 10 violoncellos,  8 double basses).

Additionally, an on-stage orchestra is required consisting of 2 piccolos, 2 clarinets, 6 horns, 3 trumpets, percussion, bells and organ.

Synopsis
The opera is set in the village and castle of Irrelohe, during the 18th century.

Act 1
Lola, an ageing woman, lives with her son Peter.  Peter asks about the dark and sinister castle of Irrelohe which stands on a distant hill, overlooking the village. Lola tells him the story of the curse surrounding the castle which for generations has led each of its inhabitants to rape a woman and soon afterwards die insane.  Peter, suspicious, wants to know the identity of his father, but Lola keeps putting the moment off.  He learns the truth from Christobald, Lola's former fiancée who has now returned. Lola was raped by the then residing lord of Irrelohe during the celebrations for her own wedding thirty years ago.  Peter realises he is the offspring of the rape and therefore must also be infected by the hereditary madness. He is unable to reveal the truth to his sweetheart, Eva, who is magnetically drawn to Heinrich, the current occupant of the castle.

Act 2
The Miller, Eva's father, tells the local Priest that his mill burned down during the night, the latest in a series of arson attacks that seem to happen at the same time every year.  Fünkchen, Ratzekahl and Strahlbusch, Christobald's accomplices, are travelling musicians who every year turn up to play at a wedding while Christobald starts a fire somewhere nearby.

Eva goes up to the castle and declares her love to Heinrich, which is returned.  However, Heinrich, determined to overcome the madness within him, refuses to consummate their love until he and Eva are properly wed.

Act 3
On the day of the wedding, Eva tries to convince Peter that their separation is for the best. Sensing the onset of the madness, Peter implores Eva not to dance at the wedding and pleads with his mother to bind him in chains.  During the wedding festivities, Peter escapes from the house and attempts to force himself upon Eva but is overcome and strangled by Heinrich just as Christobald sends the castle up in flames. Heinrich is mortified by his killing of his own brother but is strengthened by Eva's love and the pair look forward to a new and brighter future together.

Recordings
In 1995 Sony Classical released a recording made by Austrian radio ORF during a concert performance at the Vienna Musikverein on 15 March 1989, with Peter Gülke conducting the Wiener Symphoniker.
A recording taken from live performances at the Bonn Opera in 2010 conducted by Stefan Blunier was released by Musikproduktion Dabringhaus und Grimm on SACD format in September 2011.

"When I was a teacher I used to go to the dance academy after school every day. One day I was coming home from work, I got off the bus and rang my mum to tell say I would be home in 5 minutes but at the end of 5 minutes my life changed.
I had to go to hospital and then into rehab. In rehab, I suffered a lot from depression. I just wanted to stay at home, but I knew that they were trying to help me function independently.
When I was in hospital my psychologist told me about a patient who had been shot a few times who happened to be visiting the hospital at that time. I became friends with him, then he became my boyfriend and now we are married. My husband is a wheelchair basketball player. Now I have gone back to dancing. I would like to have some kind of academy for people in wheelchairs to be able to do the things they want to do.

Painters Table, glazed porcelain with overglaze transfers
Is there anything Richard Shaw can't realistically depict in porcelain? There doesn't appear to be. Shaw, who, along with Robert Hudson, invented trompe-l'oeil ceramic sculpture in the early 1970s, continues to build lanky figures and studio tableaux out of objects that are cast and painted to look like brushes, paint tubes, bottles, palettes, kitchenware, clothing, books, playing cards, musical instruments, tools, writing implements, plumbing fixtures, furniture and foodstuffs. Fashioned into assemblages, they stand as prime examples of Funk, the movement that briefly tilted the "axis of cultural authority" toward Northern California and, in particular, toward UC Davis, where Shaw studied, and where two of his instructors, William Wiley and Robert Arneson, built careers out of smashing formalist orthodoxies.
Shaw developed his own vocabulary. Besides painting cast objects to look like dead-on replicas, he also created decals that depict brand-name logos and graphics. These, when applied to ceramics, added a layer of verisimilitude that made the artist's neo-Dadaist illusions complete. After more than four decades, this ingenious blend of trompe-l'oeil and photorealism continues to fascinate by thoroughly confusing the fake and the real.
In this realm Shaw has only one peer, Marilyn Levine, and her focus is considerably narrower: suitcases and leather goods. Shaw's purview, as this beautifully installed exhibit of 22 recent works attests, is substantially larger. It ranges from the above-described assemblages to more esoteric forms, such as two framed pieces of faux cardboard packaging emblazoned with the words "Bray Clay," and a quartet of unlabeled "paintings" displayed face down on a table – potential sleepers for those unfamiliar with Shaw's brand of trickery.
While plaintive titles (e.g. "Still Life with Ink and Skull," "Still Life with Open Drawer," "Walker with Cigar Box," "Walking Figure with Pitcher) describe what we see, what we experience is the subversive glee that comes from contemplating the ways in which Shaw combines so many unlikely objects into gawky stick figures. As for the other half of his practice – the studio tableaux – each of these traces "storylines" in which the mundane facts of the artist's work life – brushes, paint cans, watercolors and pencils – take on an almost mythological character for having been repeated so often and with such fiendish attention to detail.
If you've not had the Richard Shaw experience, this exhibition is a prime opportunity.

Trump's anti-Clinton rhetoric could divide the US
Trump appears to have convinced supporters that Clinton should never be allowed to lead the US, even if she wins.
Many Trump supporters are convinced that Clinton should be arrested and jailed [Reuters]
By Alan Fisher
The Republicans held a mock trial on Tuesday. The prosecution was led by New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. The jury was the audience at the National Convention in Cleveland.
There was no one putting forward a defence, no one on hand to rebut some of the "evidence" put before the makeshift court.
Christie, who appeared to be auditioning for the role of attorney general in a Trump administration having missed out on the vice presidential slot, covered the usual ground.
The attack on the US consulate in Benghazi in 2012. The use or misuse of private email servers. The nuclear deal with Iran.
"Guilty or not guilty," he asked after every change, and they responded overwhelmingly, even joyfully, in the affirmative. Often chants of "Lock her up" erupted in the hall and delegates joined in enthusiastically.
Trump has built the idea that Clinton has escaped punishment because of the influence of others [EPA].
Criticising, even demonising the opposition candidate is nothing new. It's been around in US politics for more than 100 years – but this has a bitter, angry edge to it.
There is no doubt that Hillary Clinton has questions to answer about her record and behaviour over the use of private email servers and the subsequent inquiries. There is no doubt some of the points Governor Christie made were correct.
But this political dialogue is creating potential problems.
The bestselling items at the convention hall? T-shirts and hats calling for the jailing of Clinton. It's hardly surprising when the Republican nominee calls her "Crooked Hillary" and repeatedly says there is good reason to arrest her and jail her.
And on Wednesday, one of Trump's strongest supporters, a New Hampshire Assemblyman called Al Baldasaro, called for Clinton to be "put in the firing line and shot for treason".
READ MORE: The Rise of Trump
Baldasaro is not some fringe character. He has spoken at Trump events in his home state and in New York.
The campaign's reaction: "We are incredibly grateful for his support, but we don't agree with his comments." A bland statement usually reserved for minor policy disagreements. There was no forceful repudiation of the idea about killing another politician. None.
Trump has built the idea that Clinton has escaped punishment because of the influence of others. It adds to the idea he has often repeated that the system is rigged.
'A threat to democracy'
There was a moment of hope that his tone had changed during his acceptance speech on Thursday. He claimed Hillary Clinton was corrupt – and as the crowd began the refrain of "Lock her up", he waved them down saying simply: "Let's beat her in November".
Twenty-four hours later he was back tweeting about "crooked Hillary".
Who is Donald Trump?
As Democrats gather in Philadelphia for their Convention, they have dismissed the "lock her up" chants as "childish and silly". That underestimates their potential and potency.
Say Clinton wins the election in November – and the current polls suggest she will. Trump has painted a picture that she is a politician who should be in jail. He is posing the question even now that she will win through crooked means, and therefore she will be an illegitimate president.
He took a similar line with Barack Obama with the "birther" controversy, claiming he should not be president because he was not born in the US. Even when the birth certificate was produced in Hawaii, Trump did not back down. Even now some of his supporters believe the 44th president is a Muslim who was born in Kenya.
Donald Trump has convinced his supporters that Clinton should never be allowed to move into the White House, even if she gets more votes.
If she does get more votes, this latent anger will only grow. It is a threat to democracy and America will become an even more divided nation.

As Salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatu Allah:
Abu Karimah Al-Miqdad bin Ma`dikarib (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (Salallahu Alaihi wa Salaam) said, "When a man loves his brother (for Allah sake) let him tell him that he loves him". [At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud].
Anas bin Malik (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man was with the Prophet (PBUH) when another man passed by and the former said: "O Messenger of Allah! I love this man (for Allah's sake)". Messenger of Allah (Salallahu Alaihi wa Salaam) asked, "Have you informed him?'' He said, "No". Messenger of Allah (Salallahu Alaihi wa Salaam) then said, "Tell him (that you love him)". So he went up to the man and said to him, "I love you for the sake of Allah;'' and the other replied, "May Allah, for Whose sake you love me, love you.'' [Abu Dawud].
I just wanted to inform all my brothers and sisters that I love you all for the sake of the One that holds our souls in His hands. I love you because you are muslim and you seek to please your Lord who created us from a single soul.

Treasury Gets Three New Cyber Recommendations from GAO
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has identified four additional priority recommendations for the Department of the Treasury as of May 2022, including recommendations on improving cybersecurity and modernizing the U.S. financial regulatory system.
In June 2021, GAO identified 21 priority recommendations for Treasury as part of an annual exercise. Since then, Treasury implemented three of those recommendations, but received four news one in the latest review, leaving it with a total of 22 open priority recommendations from the past two years of reviews.
"In November 2021, we reported that on a government-wide basis, 76 percent of our recommendations made 4 years ago were implemented," wrote GAO in its latest report. "Treasury's implementation rate was 76 percent. As of May 2022, Treasury had 165 open recommendations, not including recommendations to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), which are addressed in a separate letter to the Commissioner."
"Fully implementing these open recommendations could significantly improve Treasury's operations," GAO said.
The government watchdog's latest batch of recommendations includes three to improve cybersecurity at Treasury, and one to modernize the U.S. financial regulatory system. The cybersecurity recommendations are:
Taking steps to consult with respective sector partners to develop methods for determining the level and type of cyber framework adoption by entities across those sectors;
Completing appropriate assignment of codes to employee positions performing IT, cybersecurity, or cyber-related functions; and
Facilitating the analysis of gaps between current skills and future needs, developing strategies for filling the gaps, and succession planning.
Treasury did not agree or disagree with the first recommendation, but as of February 22 had yet to develop methods to determine the level and type of framework adoption needed.
Treasury partially concurred with the second recommendation, but as of February 2022, it had not provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate that it had completed its efforts to validate work role codes.
Lastly, Treasury fully agreed with the third recommendation and has provided documentation showing it fully implemented the activity to assess competency and staffing needs regularly.
GAO maintains that implementing all recommendations would help fortify Treasury's cyber posture.
To modernize the U.S. Financial Regulatory System, GAO recommends that the Comptroller of the Currency should communicate in writing to banks that "engage in third-party relationships with financial technology lenders on the appropriate use of alternative data in the underwriting process."
The Comptroller agreed with that recommendation, however, agencies have not finalized proposed guidance from Federal banking regulators and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) on third-party risk management.
GAO says fully implementing the recommendation would help manage associated risks.

They farm 12 wine varieties including: Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah and Grenache.
Along with farming, Steve has been heavily involved in the California Assoc. of Wine Grape Growers (CAWG), an organization that supports and advocates for California wine grape issues. Through this involvement, including being past chairman, Steve's interest in wines increased as he formed relationships with many leaders in the industry. During Steve's tenure as Chairman of CAWG, one of the concepts he promoted was that growers would never receive the full value of the grapes they produced until they actually produced the wine that was the true end product. He believes that in order to be the best wine grape grower possible, you have to complete the circle and also become a vintner. Steve is also an advocate of sustainable winegrowing practices which was introduced by CAWG and the Wine Institute in 2001. Sustainable farming is a commitment to better stewardship of the vineyards, as well as the community at large. Steve remains a member on the board of the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance (CSWA).
SJWC is part of the California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance (CSWA), and works hard to reduce waste and reuse supplies & products.

PITTSBURGH � Superstitious Sidney Crosby didn�t want to jinx his shot at a hat trick after his first two goals. Perhaps for the same reason, he isn�t willing to acknowledge he�s morphing into a top pure goal-scorer.
Crosby had his third career hat trick and the Pittsburgh Penguins became the first NHL team to reach 10 victories this season, snapping the Montreal Canadiens� four-game winning streak with a 6-1 victory Wednesday night.
A few hours later, Colorado also reached 10 wins, beating Calgary 3-2.
Crosby, tied for fourth in the NHL with nine goals, had his third multiple-goal game in 12 starts this season for Pittsburgh (10-2-0).
For the rest of Wednesday�s NHL scores, see Scoreboard, Page C4.

Q&A: ARTHUR MILLER (1)
On a cold, cloudy morning late last January, 40 senior executives of some of Canada's largest corporations filed into a conference room in a suburban Toronto office building for a highly unusual and confidential meeting. Among the influential participants: the chief executives of such diverse and powerful enterprises as Bell Canada of Montreal, Stelco Inc. of Toronto and B.C. Resources Investment Corp. of Vancouver. Their purpose: to form a blue-chip task force to pressure the new Conservative government of Prime Minister Brian Mulroney into negotiations aimed at liberalizing Canada-U.S. trade.
A century after Engels's confident prediction, Canadians are feeling with renewed force the intense economic attraction of "Yankee blood." Few Canadians seriously suggest that the "ridiculous boundary" be erased, but there is a growing momentum among Canadian business leaders, economists and the government to pull down the ragged wall of tariffs between the two neighbors.

The casually dressed group gathered around a table in Finance Minister Michael Wilson's 27thfloor Ottawa office late on the Sunday afternoon of the Labor Day weekend. But Wilson, dressed in a sports jacket, and Barbara McDougall, minister of state for finance, wearing a plaid shirt and pants, faced a grim and very formal task.
A polite 'no' to Star Wars
Throughout the week suspense and speculation intensified in Ottawa. There, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney waited until the eleventh hour to outline formally Ottawa's policy toward the hotly debated U.S. space defence program. Then, after a day-long caucus meeting the Prime Minister emerged from the Railway Committee Room in Parliament's Centre Block to make one of his year-old government's most important announcements: Ottawa will not formally participate in the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), popularly known as Star Wars.

A vote for the good life
For a short time last winter, the brisk Baltic breezes that swept across Stockholm's central boulevard, the Strandvägen, seemed to carry the seeds of historic political change. Under the vaulted ceilings of the Opera Cafe, a gathering place for the city's best and brightest, the talk turned increasingly to possibilities that were—by Swedish standards—almost revolutionary.

The U.S. view of Canadian trade
Forty years ago there was no question where the United States stood on trade. In the aftermath of the Second World War, Washington was determined to tear down the great tariff walls thrown up during the 1930s. Those barriers had stifled trade, intensified the Depression and led, in part, to the Second World War.

OhMyVera! A blog about all things Vera Bradley: Too Many Catalogs!
This week I am packing so that I can move into a new place next week. Last time moved I had to toss a bunch of Vera Bradley shopping bags, this time I think I am going to toss all these catalogs! I can't keep moving them around!
Oh, I know. I can't get rid of mine, either, though I know I really should at some point. You should give them away. Sometimes I see them for sale on eBay, seriously!
I agree with Annie! They'll sell on eBay!
I've always "sort of liked" VB bags (have a couple of totes in Daisy Daisy bought for a trip a few years ago) but never got into the purses. Then, I saw Deco Daisy and, OMG, was I hooked!
Anyway, love love love the blog and felt compelled to write a comment because I'm in the DC area too. Lucky me, I am about 20 minutes from the Leesburg Outlets.
How do you get catalogs? Can you subscribe? Or are they like in house at the stores? I'm still jonesing for a store out here in Vegas. I've lodged a complaint/request on the VB facebook page, but I feel like they shrug it off because we have private boutiques that sell pieces. But man, is it not the same. I wish I knew whose ear to really try to get about it.
You have to sign up to receive catalogs. I dont know if it can be done online, so I would contact customer service. I signed up at a Vera Bradley store.

Home Trucking News School Superintendent Thanks Trucker For Taking Ditch To Avoid School Bus
School Superintendent Thanks Trucker For Taking Ditch To Avoid School Bus
"A father of three kids made a split second decision without hesitation."
A truck driver made a selfless decision to swerve into a ditch to avoid a direct hit on school bus full of children in Michigan on Monday.
The incident happened just before 7 a.m. in Freeman Township.
According to the Clare County Sheriff's Office, a school bus driver heading north stopped at an stop sign at an intersection for a car heading east. When that car had passed, the bus driver pulled out into the intersection, not seeing the semi that was following the car.
Trucker Ben Fiorenza had only seconds to make a decision. He didn't want to hit the side of the bus, so he slammed on his brakes and steered hard. He wound up clipping the back of the school bus.
Fiorenza said, "Cranked the wheel hard and held it to the right. And she went down in the ditch, hit, then popped back up."
Fifteen students were on the bus at the time of the crash. Three suffered minor injuries. Fiorenza also sustained a few minor injuries in the crash.
Fiorenza, a father of three, said, "I was just trying to not hurt any of those kids on the bus."
The Farwell's superintendent published an emotional Facebook post praising Fiorenza and calling him a hero:
"The Northern Logistics driver is a hero as far as I am concerned…. his decision to risk his own life and take the truck into the ditch is what saved the lives of many….. Thank you Ben Fiorenza! A father of three kids made a split second decision without hesitation…..this action is what saved the kids… although he is sore, Ben is fine. Ben deserves the highest amount of praise and thanks from all of us. Our bus driver and Ben are really having a difficult time. I want them to know that both are in my prayers….."

Tracking of opening and click rates
We track opening and click rates. It may also happen that we track clicks on links.
There is no passing on of personal data to third parties for purposes of advertisement, market research or opinion polling.
Data processing in a third country
For sending our newsletter, we use Mailchimp of The Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308 USA (Mailchimp). This enables us to directly contact subscribers. In addition, we analyze your usage behavior in order to optimize our offer.
For that, we pass the following personal data on to Mailchimp:
Your first name (insofar as voluntarily provided by you)
Your last name (insofar as voluntarily provided by you)
Your company (insofar as voluntarily provided by you)
Your position (insofar as voluntarily provided by you).
Mailchimp is the receiver of your personal data and working for us as a processing partner, insofar as sending our newsletter is concerned. Processing of the data indicated under this section is neither required by law nor by contract. Without your consent and the transmission of your personal data, we cannot send out a newsletter to you.
In addition, Mailchimp collects the following personal data using cookies and other tracking methods: information about your user equipment (IP address, device information, operating system, browser ID, information about the application you are reading your E-mails with, and further information about hardware and Internet connection. Furthermore, usage data is collected, such as date and time, when you opened the E-mail / campaign and browser activities (e.g., which E-mails / websites were opened). Mailchimp requires this data in order to guarantee security and reliability of the systems, compliance with the usage conditions and avoidance of misuse. This corresponds to the legitimate interest of Mailchimp (acc. to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) and serves contract implementation (acc. to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO). Furthermore, performance data is analyzed by Mailchimp, such as delivery statistics of E-mails and further communication data. This information is used to create usage and performance statistics of the services.
Mailchimp collects additional information about you from other sources. Personal data is collected via social media and further third-party providers of data in an unspecified period of time and to an unspecified extent. We have no influence on this process.

The legal basis for this processing is your consent according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You may revoke consent to the processing of your personal data anytime. You will find a respective link in all mailings. Furthermore, the revocation may also be undertaken via the contact details stated. The declaration of revocation does not affect the legality of the processing undertaken until then.

Mailchimp implemented compliance measures for international data transmissions. These apply to all worldwide activities, in which Mailchimp processes personal data of natural persons in the EU. These measures are based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) of the EU. Further information can be found under: https://mailchimp.com/legal/data-processing-addendum/
Please observe:
Currently, there is no adequate level of data privacy in the USA, and it cannot be excluded that national security authorities give respective orders towards the newsletter provider in order to gain access to data. Judicial remedies, too, are currently restricted.
Since we, however, only work with E-mail addresses and possibly with first names, last names, company, and position (on a voluntary basis), we consider the risk acceptable and the probability for actual access rather small.
We concluded an order processing contract within the meaning of Art. 28 DSGVO with Mailchimp. In addition, the new Standard Contract Clauses of the EU were concluded in order to guarantee an adequate level of data privacy.
In addition to that, we conducted our own Transfer Impact Assessment (TIA) and, in view of the protection needs of the data, consider data processing to this extent permissible.
Independent thereof, all subscribers gave their consent to data processing in the USA within the meaning of Art. 49 Para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO.
III. Disclosure of data

• the disclosure according to Art. 6 Sect. 1 p. 1 lit. f of the GDPR is required for the assertion, execution or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to believe that you have an overriding interest warranting protection relating to the non-disclosure of your data,
• in such case that there is a legal obligation for disclosure according to Art. 6 Sect. 1 p. 1 lit. c of the GDPR, as well as
• this is legally admissible and according to Art. 6 Sect. 1 p. 1 lit. b of the GDPR required for the handling of contractual relationships with you.

Our programs include 5 basic steps.
During the intake we'll ask you to tell us your story, we'll then inventarise your goals together.
During this part of the session we'll be looking at your body regarding structure, strength & range of movement. The tests we will use are focussed on checking muscle length, strength, joint alignment & movement.
We will share the above results with you, basing your treatment & exercise plan around them.
Your training program will be designed specifically to meet your needs & will be made based upon your lifestyle - we will actively involve you in creating this program as this will give the best results.
Here we will re-evaluate your physical status, repeating the diagnostic tests performed at the intake & throughout the treatment to objectively measure your improvement. We will then discuss a maintenance program for you to follow which will help reduce the chances of your injury/condition re-occuring.

Q: c# make a program minimize to task bar I am trying to make my application minimize to task bar/tray
Here is my code so far that I have pulled together from other SO posts and other people seem to have it working but my app minimizes to the tray but when I click it in the tray it doesn't reopen.
private void Form1_Resize(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (WindowState == FormWindowState.Minimized)
        {
            this.notifyIcon1.Visible = true;
            this.notifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(500);
            this.Hide();
        }
    }
    private void notifyIcon1_DoubleClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        this.Show();
        this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal;
    }

just to explain again the problem is the application minimizes to the tray but when I click on the icon it doesn't restore the app to normal. Instead it does nothing.

A: I found my problem.
what I didn't do was this

Set the NotifyIcon's visible property to false in the property editor. Now go to the property editor of Form1, click on the little lightning symbol to access the events, and double click on the Resize event, and change the code to:

and I also didn't do this

Finally we need the code to make the program show up again when the icon is double clicked. So double click on NotifyIcon1 in the designer,

I found this information here
Dreamincode

A: This is what I have used in the past but I fund a copy online at the link below
 if (FormWindowState.Minimized == this.WindowState)
 {
      notifyIcon1.Visible = true;
      notifyIcon1.ShowBalloonTip(500);
      this.Hide();
 }

In 1984 Ferrari brought out a rather special car in order to comply with Group B regulations – the Ferrari 288 GTO. And, according to Ferrari, it started "Supercar Syndrome ." The Driving Life takes a look back at this impressive vehicle.
Group B was a classification for ultra-powerful rally cars. If you're a gearhead, you probably already know this, so I won't bother with further explanation. But you may not know that the Group B regulations also covered sports cars.
Group B came into effect in 1983, and in 1984 Ferrari showed the GTO (although informally the car is known as the 288 GTO in order to differentiate it from the 250 GTO) at the 1984 Geneva Motor Show. Ferrari had plans to build 200 units in order to satisfy Group B homologation, but then Group B was cancelled.
However, the fervor caused in Geneva was such that Ferrari opted to build all 200 cars. In fact, between 1984 and 1986, the company built and sold 272 examples of the GTO.
The 288 GTO cost $112,000 and was styled by Pininfarina, albeit based on the 308 body shape. The engine was a 2.8-liter, twin turbo, 90 degree, V-8 that produced 400 bhp. Bodypanels were composite materials or resin moldings, and the mid-mounted engine was mounted longitudinally in the chassis. The body was shorter than a 308 but the wheelbase longer. After all, the 288 GTO was designed for racing.
The GTO weighed 2690 lbs., had a top speed of 190mph, with 0-60 mph acceleration in 4.9 seconds.
The forward end of the engine was so close to the cabin bulkhead, in order to optimize weight distribution, that a service hatch was provided in the bulkhead for maintenance. This was the first longitudinally mounted V-8 engine fitted in a Ferrari production road car. It was also the first to be fitted with twin turbochargers.
But the 288 story didn't end there.
Between 1985 and 1986 Ferrari produced five very special versions, called the GTO Evoluzione. Power was uprated to 650 bhp, weight was reduced to 2,072 lbs. and the theoretical top speed was 225mph.

I recently read a comment on Facebook that Libra/Tula is the worst ascendant to have, and this comment was being 'liked. These sort of immature and unbalanced comments can dishearten genuine aspirants from learning this ancient science of Jyotish. So here is my experience with Libra ascendant. This sign is represented by a balance scale perfectly in balance. Every sort of energy is perfectly balanced by this ascendant.
When you read a horoscope there are two things you must remember. Each house is influenced by two signs. 1. The sign that is actually occupying it and 2. The sign of the zodiac which would naturally occupy it. If the ascendant is Taurus the first house will be influenced by 1.Taurus which is actually rising and 2.Aries the first natural sign of the zodiac. Aries will be the subtle influence overlaid on the expression of Taurus here. Whatever may be the rising sign, Aries will always have a say on the matters of the 1st house wherever it may be located in the chart. The two signs and their traits influence each other and mingle to create the 1st house. Now for every ascendant sign Aries will be placed in different houses too. This placement i.e. house number where Aries is placed will also influence your 1st house characteristics.
Similarly Taurus will always influence the 2nd house in addition the actual sign occupying the 2nd house, and so on till Pisces which will always subtly influence the 12th house.
So when the ascendant is Libra rising, the 1st house will be influenced by the two signs Libra itself and Aries. Two signs, Libra and the sign exactly opposite it, 180 degrees away Aries both now interact to create the personality. For each and every house the actual sign and the sign exactly opposite it will create the house. Eg, the 2nd house will be a composite of Scorpio and its exact opposite Taurus. Similarly the 3rd is a composite of Sagittarius and Gemini. So on till the 12th house is a composite of Virgo and its opposite Pisces.
It is just like you rent your house to your perfect partner and you take his house on rent yourself. Now both you and this guy are interested in the welfare and maintenance of both these houses. And both these houses are right in front of each other so that both of you check on your actual houses all the time.
I had written a post on how a sign and the sign 180 degrees away from it/opposite to it, are complementary. These two signs are mirror images, both filling each other's blanks. This is the subtle balance that Libra represents. In every aspect of life denoted by each and every house, the natural sign of that house is placed exactly opposite to that house thus subtly completing the missing bits of actual sign occupying the house. Thus the Balance of Libra. The first house is the 7th sign. The force of personality, conquest, competition etc is tempered with the need to ally, to balance, to partner. Thus you get the balance. The second house is the 8th sign. Here the need to preserve family treasures, home life, party and pleasure, food and drink is tempered with the need to work in secret, putting your assets to use and to transform them, to travel, to meditate and delve deeper into the self. Thus every house is in perfect Balance. There are no extremes.
There is another way that the Balance of Libra works. Each planet is placed in a house which is a composite of the sign occupying it and its mirror image. Eg if there is a Saturn placed in Virgo in the 12th house, it will give a combination result of Saturn in 12th (subtly Pisces too) and Saturn in Virgo (subtly the 6th house too). So its result is a balanced and a well negotiated alliance between so many mirrored forces. No extremes will be allowed here, it will be ultimately very harmonious.
If the ascendant is Aries, the first natural house is the first house. There is no mingling of traits between signs to create the house, thus the expression is 'pure Aries'. Every house in this chart will express its pure traits, eg the 2nd house will be pure Taurus, 3rd as pure Gemini and so on. So the balance or imbalance of each house is felt even more acutely. The first house Aries will definitely give a force of personality and the 7th Libra will give a sense of relationships. But somewhere this person will come across as overbearing and uncaring, and driving in his own point of view, accepting other's view points only to perhaps to debate them later.
Now a counter example of unbalance, Virgo ascendant. Here the first house is created by a composite of Virgo itself and subtly Aries. In this chart Aries the first sign will occupy the 8th house. The subtle agent of the entire personality, Aries is in the house of forceful transformations of identity. The entire personality becomes subtly more fluid, prone to sudden traumatic identity changes. It is like the solidity of the first house is subtly submerged in the forceful transformations of the 8th. Also the natural owner of each and every house is placed 8th from this house, giving this same effect of subtle forced traumas in the matters of every house. More, the house is now placed 6th from its natural sign, giving a subtle 'need to serve'. Another example of typical unbalance is the Scorpio ascendant. Here Aries occupies the 6th house and subtly influences the 1st house from here. The personality is again afflicted by the 6th-8th axis problems of servitude, service, transformations of identity, secrets and catastrophic changes.
But unbalance and balance both are necessary. If everything is balanced and harmonious there would be no incentive to grow and improve. And on the other hand if everything was unbalanced there would be no scope/opportunity to evolve. So there is to be a balance between balance and unbalance itself. Both are necessary.
the actual sign occupying it, the owner planet and his placement.
the natural sign and its location, occupying planets and aspects also have a subtle influence on it.
the axis between the actual and natural signs also has its say.
So in conclusion Libra is a good, balanced and harmonious ascendant to have! Analysing charts is intelligently comparing aspects and influences, subtle and gross both. Sticking on just one characteristic of a planet or sign will lead to lopsided and inaccurate readings. Give time to each chart and reading and try to analyse it in a wholistic manner without pre-judgement and pre-conceptions. Every chart is different, and every individual unique!

Thesys is a powerful and intuitive MIDI step-sequencer plug-in, giving you control over just about all aspects of your favorite MIDI devices. You can use Eloquence to create varied and organic bass lines, screaming leads, pulsating chords, and organic pad sounds in the studio or on stage.
For live musicians, Eloquence provides a versatile palette of performance options which can be triggered right from your MIDI keyboard: you can transpose, manipulate, twist up, mutate, and mangle your patterns without even getting near your computer.
* Pitch: The pitch sequencer works in relation to the root key and transposes it by +/- 12 semitones.
In scale mode, the sequencer-entries work in-scale, that might exceed the octave range of the sequencer by quite a few octaves. In addition, the pitch sequencer has a flexible recording function.
* Lock: Lock is part of the pitch sequencer. An active step deactivates the MIDI transposing. This is useful for keeping important notes and chords in key while transposing the sequence.
* Gate: The Gate Sequencer creates notes and determines their velocity.
* Mute: The Mute Sequencer is part of the Gate Sequencer and mutes the selected step.
* Gate Time: The Gate Time Sequencer determines how long a note is held. Notes can be held up to four times the duration of a step.
* Octave: This sequencer moves the pitch the pitch by +/- 2 octaves.
* Pitchbend: Here you can select from 12 pitch bend figures to be engaged.
* Chord: A Chord is generated using the current note in the pitch sequencer as the root note. Six Variations and four wrap-arounds for major and minor plus six special chords like diminished and augmented are available.
* Break: This sequencer lets you set a multi-trigger at 2, 3, or 4 times the normal sequencer speed, playing the current scale up or downwards or just repeating the current note. 18 breaks are available.
* Random: Each sequencer step can be replaced by a random value. Minor and major chords can be individually randomized to maintain the harmonic structure.
* Gate Time: The Gate Time can be increased or decreased, depending on how long you press the button.
* Velo Gate: The note will only play if it is above the selected velocity threshold.
* Looper: The selected part of the sequence will be looped.
* Slowdown: The sequence slows down until it comes to a dead stop.
* Retrigger: Re-trigger the sequence by re-trigger-pressing the button; upon release, the sequencer continues at its normal position.
* Halftime: The sequence will play at half speed.
* Octave Up: The sequence will play one octave higher as long as you press the button.
* Mute: Mutes all data output.
* Internal synthesizer to create patterns on the fly.
* Special workaround for sending MIDI with the AU plug-in.
* Instant keyboard control for Transpose, Pattern Select, Action Section.
* Individual trigger and sync options, swing function.
