Luo Yun is a face. sorry, he also before look/the Huang Xiaolong say Huang Xiaolong can top 100 is good, didn't think Huang Xiaolong will a ringing astonishing, and it's super amazing that type.

Just then, that Sun Shihai also look to the Huang Xiaolong here.

Eugenie Bouchard somehow finds the time to fit in tennis. Picture: Getty Images
Swimsuit model and tennis star opens up on her 'crazy' life
by Michael Burgess, NZ Herald
1st Jan 2019 6:30 PM
EUGENIE Bouchard admits social media can make you "crazy" and says she tries not to get too wrapped up in the online world.
In the age of Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, athletes are able to offer fans a window into their lives like never before, while such applications are also important marketing tools to leverage endorsements and sponsorships.
Despite being world No 87, the Canadian, who defeated Madison Brengle in the first round of the ASB Classic on Monday, remains one of the most high-profile players on the WTA tour.
It's partly due to her incredible exploits in 2014, in just her second year on tour, when she reached the Wimbledon final and the last four at the Australian Open and Roland Garros, which created a buzz about the Montreal-born player that has never really dissipated.
But it's also due to her glamorous image - the 24-year-old has been a regular Sports Illustrated swimsuit model - and her prolific activity on Instagram, which has garnered almost two million followers worldwide, as she posts regularly from exotic locations around the world.

Bouchard also puts herself in the spotlight, as she did with her dinner date with a random Twitter fan, after losing a Super Bowl bet, which created headlines across the globe
Bouchard enjoys the process and has a natural sense of humour that suits the medium, but admits it can be a double-edged sword.
"It's definitely crazy," Bouchard told the Radio Sport Breakfast. "We are scrutinised on a whole other level. Fans have access to us - they can essentially write to us their unfiltered thoughts."
The anonymous nature of social media tends to attract nut cases and losers, as well as genuine fans, and they can be hypercritical of anything and everything that an athlete posts, particularly if they perceive it to be not related or beneficial to their sport.
"Social media is a very tough world out there so I think it is important to not get too wrapped up in it," Bouchard said.
"I love using it to show my fans what I do. I think it adds another dimension to me as a tennis player (and) I get to do all of these other crazy things because of my life. But I do keep a distance in terms of reading what is online and all that stuff because that will literally make you go crazy."
Bouchard has certainly had some amazing experiences outside tennis. Last year she enjoyed a private holiday on Sir Richard Branson's exclusive Necker Island, in the heart of the Caribbean.
Branson, a tennis fanatic, and also Bjorn Borg and former world No.2 Tommy Haas to socialise, play some tennis and unwind.
"That trip is a trip of a lifetime," Bouchard said.
"Every vacation after being on Necker is a downgrade, if you know what I mean. You are on a private island, it can't be more luxurious, it can't be more exclusive.
"Richard is amazing. What he does for tennis is awesome, I'm so happy that he loves the sport that I have dedicated my life too. I met some amazing people there, like Bjorn Borg, (and) Tommy Haas. It was so much fun just to hang out with some legends like that and play tennis and have fun."
Bouchard said she was happy to be back in New Zealand for the first time in five years.
"I played Auckland my first season as a professional - back in 2013 - and I really enjoyed it," she said.
"The people were so nice and it was a really welcoming place. It was a nice way to ease into the year. So when the opportunity came up this year, I was like for sure, I want to go back and see everyone over there because it's been a while."

This section describes a simple recognizer called SREC that demonstrates some of the information given in this chapter. The text describes the most interesting parts of the program and illustrates with code fragments. The complete source listing for SREC.C resides in the SAMPLES\PEN\SREC subdirectory.
SREC is used by the PENAPP application described in Chapter 7, "A Sample Pen Application." To see how SREC works, you must create both PENAPP.EXE and SREC.DLL using the supplied MAKE files, then run PENAPP.
When using the SREC recognizer, PENAPP specifies that a stroke ends when the pen leaves the tablet. Therefore, SREC recognizes only one stroke at a time. SREC takes the beginning and ending points of the stroke and calculates the nearest compass direction of the line formed by these endpoints.
For its HRC object, SREC creates a structure that contains an HPENDATA handle to the input data, the module handle returned from InstallRecognizer, and recognition results. The following typedef statements define the HRC and HRCRESULT objects for SREC. Notice that SREC keeps its HRCRESULT within the HRC.
The following sections describe the functions that SREC exports. These functions appear under the same categories described earlier in this chapter, in the section "List of Exported Functions." This allows for quick cross-referencing between a general description of a function and its actual implementation in SREC.
Although defined by the Pen API, the function names below appear in monospace font rather than bold because the names refer to routines in the SREC.C source file.

Dia's first impression is from the Production Houses
News | July 7, 2007 | | by Prathna Tiwari
In an industry that is flooded with models turned actors, it is only natural that the former Miss India goes unnoticed. However within the upcoming few years, Dia wishes to make some interesting career choices that perhaps will make her presence in the industry more noticeable.
Dia was recently seen in the political movie, Shootout at Lokhandwala, as a reporter, and she currently has a few very interesting projects lined up. Krazy 4, Alibaug and Dus Kahanayaan are three names that she openly mentioned to sources of Hindustan Times.
But its not these movies that keeps the gorgeous model-turned-actress in the news lately: her project with national award winner Manmohan Mahapatra and the critically acclaimed Rahul Bose has everybody talking. Dia will be seen in this project titled "Bits and Pieces" soon.
The cast and crew, including Dia, are keeping a low profile when it comes to discussing this project. However, one interesting fact which Dia disclosed is that the movie is shot in a mental asylum and she's very much thrilled about it.
After quite a decent amount of time of struggling to receive attention, Dia has finally decided to try a few new strategies that she has put into action over the last couple of years. Dia proudly boasts that a great film and banner matter much more than a lengthy role. In short, she'd rather do a five minute role in a blockbuster than star as the leading lady in a stupid film. Not only that, but Dia also proudly brags that she is making the decision to now venture into art house styled cinema.
Above all, it's the banner that matters the most and what Dia considers first when deciding on a project. The first impression of the movie comes from the banner, and then Dia goes further into looking at the story to decide whether she'll say yes or no.
The coming few years will tell if Dia's new strategy was worth the implementation.

We Must Defend the Safe Communities Act
Late last year, voters received mailers from the Mass Fiscal Alliance directly attacking the Safe Communities Act. These mailers were misleading, inaccurate, and solely designed to provoke backlash against the Safe Communities Act and the Commonwealth's undocumented immigrant population.
In light of these deceitful and deeply disturbing mailers, I felt the need to clear up any confusion with regards to the intent of and provisions included in the Safe Communities Act. First and foremost, nothing in the Act offers protection or immunity to criminals. This is perhaps the biggest misconception about the bill and cannot be overstated. Instead of providing "sanctuary" to criminals as many have wrongfully argued, the bill instead explicitly permits police to arrest or detain a person in the course of a criminal investigation or prosecution when supported by probable cause that the person has committed a crime.
In addition, the Safe Communities Act would: (1) ensure that local law enforcement resources are used to fight crime, not to assist federal immigration enforcement; (2) prohibit state support for any federal registry program based on national origin or other protected characteristics, such as a "Muslim registry"; and (3) guarantee basic due process rights for immigrants detained in state and local facilities.
We cannot stand by while those who wish to tear us apart spew xenophobic hatred and lies against our immigrant residents. It is our duty as Americans who love our country and believe in its core values of justice, respect, and opportunity for all to fight the kind of hate and lies that organizations like Mass Fiscal Alliance knowingly perpetrate. The Safe Communities Act aims to do that in a small, but meaningful way.
I'm very proud to support and co-sponsor the Safe Communities Act and I hope the Legislature acts on it this session. To learn more about the bill, I invite you to visit https://www.miracoalition.org/safe-communities.

I did something at my bench yesterday, for the first time in more than two months. It wasn't a proper experiment - I was only growing up and checking some cells that another researcher has requested from us. But it reminded me of how long it's been since I did any benchwork (more than two months).
I realized several years ago that the pleasure of doing "real" experiments was worth the time away from my desk. This time could productively be spent working on manuscripts and advising other lab members on their experiments, maybe more productively than by doing experiments. But doing experiments is where the best fun is, and I'm not going to let an obsession with productivity deny me the pleasure of doing them.
One of the post-docs has just blogged on the role of nucleotides in regulating competence, reminding me that this poorly understood regulation is the critical evidence that bacteria take up DNA as food (that the evolutionary function of DNA uptake is nutrient acquisition). What are the important questions?
First (simplest), does the PurR repressor regulate the rec2 gene? This gene's product plays an essential role in bringing DNA across the inner membrane, and its promoter has what looks like a strong binding site for PurR. We also have preliminary evidence that PurR does repress rec2, from one microarray of cells whose purR gene had been knocked out.
I just searched my previous posts and those of another lab member for "PurR" and found a lot of analyses and information I'd forgotten. So I think I need to get together with the two post-docs that are also thinking about this, and pool our memories and ideas.


Tag Archive | "Brooks Robinson"
Thursday marked a special day in Baltimore as Orioles legend and Hall of Fame third baseman Brooks Robinson celebrated his 80th birthday.
A civic treasure and one of the most beloved figures you'll find in any community, Robinson remains "Mr. Oriole" more than 20 years after he humbly tried to anoint Cal Ripken with the title. If you've lived in the greater Baltimore area for any meaningful period of time, you know what he means to the city.
I was born six years after Robinson played his final game with the Orioles, so I won't pretend to have any unique insight or observations about his playing career. His accomplishments and highlight reels speak for themselves.
However, one of the great memories of my sports media career came on Opening Day in 2010 when I was covering my first Orioles game. A number of former players were present that day to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the 1970 World Series team, and I found the opportunity to approach the man regarded by all as an absolute gentleman. Echoing a sentiment he'd undoubtedly heard in some form from thousands upon thousands over the years, I wanted to thank him and tell him how much of a hero he had been to my father, who had died six years earlier.
Instead of wondering why a youthful member of the media was acting like a fanboy, Robinson warmly patted me on the shoulder, thanked me for sharing, and offered his belated condolences. It was a brief moment not unlike countless others he's shared with adoring fans, but it sure meant a lot to a Baltimore native who was covering his first Orioles game and thinking a lot about his dad on that day.
BALTIMORE — Just a few years ago, not many would have believed Orioles pitcher Chris Tillman would be the one taking the ball for the opening game of a playoff series.
Acquired with outfielder Adam Jones as the centerpieces of the Erik Bedard trade in February 2008, Tillman carried a career 5.58 ERA in 36 starts over his first three major league seasons in which he shuffled back and forth between Baltimore and Triple-A Norfolk. The struggles left him as an afterthought in many minds as the Orioles embarked on what turned out to be a surprising 2012 season that resulted in their first postseason appearance in 15 years.
It wasn't until that July that Tillman finally got another chance in the rotation and established himself as a major league starter by going 9-3 with a 2.93 ERA in 15 starts. Even with Tillman having such an impressive second half, manager Buck Showalter elected to send him to the bullpen in the 2012 playoffs where he did not pitch.
Last year, he established himself as the staff ace and was named to his first All-Star Game. And after being named the Opening Day starter for the first time earlier this year, Tillman will take another step in his dramatic progression by making his postseason debut against the Detroit Tigers in Game 1 of the American League Division Series Thursday night.
Completing his second consecutive 200-inning season and posting a 20-start streak of allowing three or fewer earned runs that wasn't snapped until his final outing of the regular season, Tillman's final 2014 numbers that included a 13-6 record with a 3.34 ERA weren't such a sure thing as late as early June. Slow starts in the early innings and poor fastball command led to Tillman holding a 5.20 ERA through his first 13 starts.
His early-inning pains and a lingering groin issue led many to wonder if a market correction was finally taking place after his superb 1 1/2 years, but the 26-year-old instead made adjustments and went on the most successful run of his career, posting a 2.38 ERA over his final 21 starts to not only silence doubters but make it an elementary choice for Showalter to choose him as the Game 1 starter against the Tigers.
Tillman will be opposed by 2013 AL Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer, leading many to overlook the tall right-hander once again, but his numbers since early June suggest he is as dangerous as any starting pitcher remaining in the postseason. The only question will be how he responds to the limelight of his first playoff appearance, but Tillman is often praised by teammates and coaches alike for his even demeanor, which should allow him to handle what's sure to be a raucous crowd at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
For the California native, it's just another step and just another start, even while anticipating some butterflies.
When asked about how he anticipated handling the third base position, Showalter wasn't tipping his hand Wednesday as the Orioles have given starts to Ryan Flaherty, Jimmy Paredes, Kelly Johnson, and Alexi Casilla at the hot corner since Chris Davis was suspended for amphetamine use on Sept. 12.
The growing pains have been clear as the Orioles had appeared to settle on Davis as their regular replacement for the injured Gold Glove winner Manny Machado before the slugger was banned for 25 games, a stretch that makes him ineligible until the ninth game of the postseason should the club advance. Baltimore made seven errors at third base over the final 10 games of the regular season.
Most believe Showalter will go with the strongest available defensive option in the postseason, which would be Flaherty despite the utility infielder committing three errors over his final four starts at third.
The 2012 Rule 5 pick said he is feeling more comfortable after getting extensive time at third base for the first time since the beginning of the year when he was filling in for the still-rehabbing Machado. Flaherty has made five errors in 27 starts and 255 1/3 total innings at third base this season.
Showalter said Wednesday that he won't announce the rest of his starting rotation until the conclusion of Game 1, but Wei-Yin Chen, Miguel Gonzalez, and Bud Norris will be the three starters behind Chris Tillman — in some order.
The 23-year-old Kevin Gausman was told to be ready for Game 1, a surefire sign that he will pitch in relief during the Division Series. However, it remains to be seen how many will be joining him in the bullpen as the Orioles are debating whether to go with a six-man group of relievers and a six-man bench or seven relief pitchers and five on the bench. A six-man bullpen would include Gausman, closer Zach Britton, right-handers Darren O'Day and Tommy Hunter, lefty Andrew Miller, and either righty-hander Brad Brach or left-hander Brian Matusz.
The deadline to finalize the Division Series roster is 10 a.m. Thursday.
Machado was back at Camden Yards to watch Games 1 and 2 of the Division Series before reporting to Sarasota to continue rehabbing his surgically-repaired knee.
The 22-year-old remains optimistic that he'll be 100 percent for the start of spring training in February.
Hall of Fame third baseman and Orioles legend Brooks Robinson was a special guest speaker before the 2014 Orioles completed their workout at Camden Yards on Wednesday.
Memorial Day is rapidly approaching, which brings the unofficial end of the mantra uttered countless times to explain an Orioles offense that continues to sputter over the first seven weeks of the 2014 season.
"It's still early" doesn't fly anymore as the season has passed the quarter pole and Baltimore ranks 13th in runs, 12th in on-base percentage, ninth in home runs, and eighth in slugging percentage in the American League. Of course, the Orioles' free-swinging tendencies and 10th-ranked on-base percentage from a season ago made it clear that the lineup had its flaws, but no one could forecast such a dramatic power outage from a club that led the majors in long balls and was fourth in the AL in runs during the 2013 season.
Save for free-agent acquisition Nelson Cruz, whose 12 home runs are twice the output of any other player on the roster, the Orioles' power outage has been felt up and down the lineup.
Chris Davis has only three home runs in 30 games after hitting a club-record 53 a season ago. Since returning from a strained oblique on May 11, the first baseman is hitting just .179 and has been out in front of nearly everything, evident by his four groundouts to the right side in Sunday's loss to Kansas City, instead of waiting to drive the ball the other way like he does when at his best.
J.J. Hardy is without a long ball after hitting 77 in his first three seasons in Baltimore. Early-season back and hamstring issues appear to be in the rear-view mirror, but the All-Star shortstop has yet to find his usual power stroke.
Manny Machado still hasn't hit a double — he hit a league-leading 51 last year — and has only one home run in his first 73 plate appearances after starting the season on the 15-day disabled list and completing his recovery from offseason knee surgery. The 21-year-old deserves the benefit of the doubt after a seven-month recovery from last September's injury, but his .240 average in the second half last year reminds us that the third baseman is far from a finished product even when healthy.
Injuries have impacted all three, but the likes of Adam Jones and Nick Markakis have also tailed off in the power department in comparison to their career averages. Of course, the order hasn't been helped by the elbow injury to catcher Matt Wieters, who was off to the best offensivee start of his career prior to being placed on the disabled list earlier this month.
So, what is manager Buck Showalter to do?
Short of taking a closer look at alternative options at second base, catcher, and left field (or designated hitter if the Orioles elect to have Cruz play in the outfield), there isn't much to be done except continuing to run the aforementioned players out there on a daily basis.
For some perspective, Davis hit only five homers through May 19 of the 2012 season before ultimately hitting 33, a reminder that a hot stretch or two would put any of these players back on a favorable pace in the power department. In Davis' case, reaching 53 home runs was always going to be extremely difficult, but he's still more than capable of posting big numbers in 2014 despite the slow start.
The club's poor on-base percentage and inability to work counts are valid criticisms and a conscious effort should be made to enhance those areas, but only marginal improvement should be expected when you're talking about veteran hitters who've carried a given approach — flawed as it may be — throughout their careers. Free swingers don't suddenly transform themselves into selective hitters at the big-league level unless you want to stunt their biggest strengths in the process.
Such an order would provide Davis with a better on-base percentage option in front of him while also taking some pressure off Machado as he tries to get his 2014 season on track. Showalter also prefers keeping his lineup balanced with right-handed and left-handed hitters to make it more difficult for opposing managers to match up with their bullpen arms late in games.
This alignment would call for Young or Pearce to be in the lineup regularly, which is preferred if the Orioles are to continue carrying both on the 25-man roster. Neither has played much since Davis' return from the DL.
Are those suggested changes dramatic? Of course not, but there is only so much you can try as a manager when so many core members of your lineup are sputtering. Staying the course sounds cliched, but it's the only real choice in trusting that proven track records will ultimately prevail over the results of the first 42 games of the season — as concerning as they might be.
Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson (Baltimore Orioles) is expected to file a lawsuit against the Seminole Tribe after he suffered a traumatic brain injury after falling off a stage at the Hollywood Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in 2012. He was on the property to attend a fundraiser for the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital. However, Mr. Robinson's attorney Jack Hickey said Florida's Tribal Sovereignty compact might prevent Robinson from receiving fair compensation to cover his medical expenses for his multiple and debilitating injuries.
At the heart of this story is a national consumer issue. With the proliferation of gaming facilities with added attractions such as ballrooms, hotels and concert venues, visitors are not protected if they are injured while they are not gambling. In other words, if you are on property "for gaming purposes" there is a waiver of the immunity allowing you to bring a claim and get full compensation. If you are not on property for gaming purposes (for example a fundraiser or concert) and you are hurt through the Tribe's negligence, they have tribal immunity in which their liability is limited to the $200,000 statutory cap imposed on governmental entities by the Florida Legislature.
Mr. Robinson's attorney said this is a horrible injustice to the public and should be addressed during this legislative session.
Here is a PDF of the demands letter.


A new report, published today [Tuesday 20th November] by Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) and launched at a joint event in Parliament between the APPG on Healthy Homes and Buildings and the APPG on Smoking and Health, calls for action to address smoking closer to where people live.
The report, Smoking in the home; new solutions for the smokefree generation, sets out how an innovative focus on smoking in the home could provide important new routes for smokers to quit and help protect children and non-smokers from exposure to secondhand smoke. In doing so this could help to realise the Government's vision of a smokefree generation set out in the 2017 Tobacco Control Plan for England.
iPiP provided comments and suggestions during the drafting of this report and endorses the recommendations.
Smoking is now highly concentrated in some communities, particularly the rented sector. The report finds that smoking is twice as common in social housing than in other tenures. The report also found that people living in social housing are less likely to successfully quit despite trying as often as other smokers.

Should Arsenal fans support the club unconditionally?
By Admin Pat - 14 July 2015, 15:04
What Is Expected Of A Football Club's Supporters/Fans? by KAF
So, here's the thing: some people think the word "fan" or "supporter", in football, means one who supports a club and its players and whole-heartedly accepts everything done by the clubs administrative board, coach, players and asks no question whatsoever even when it is glaring that things are going wrong or not being done properly.
Well, there's a huge difference between a "puppet" and a "fan", you can always look up the definition of both words; one isn't human (inanimate) and is animated or controlled by someone else, the other is human – a living being with a will. Puppets don't complain, the analyse nothing, they act solely on the command their animator gives. But fans are not puppets.
If at Arsenal, a player who plays for us isn't good enough, should we, just because we are fans, sit back and applaud his mediocrity? Or if our coach repeatedly makes the wrong tactical decisions and costs us games, should we sit back and chant his praise like there's nothing wrong, just because we are fans? When a governing body goes unquestioned at all times, its activities are not being scrutinised, dictatorship is born.
Some of the players playing for us are very average, we (the fans) have the right to complain. As fans, we have expectations for our club, we'd like our club to be factually the best in the world and win every trophy there is to win. We are an essential integral part of the club, not just with our voices and emotions, but our money too. We, as a club, may not win everything, but we must make a thorough effort to. It is better to try and fail than never trying at all.

All Arsenal fans do support the club unconditionally. Otherwise they wouldn't be fans.
There is a difference of opinion between a lot of Arsenal fans as to whether the club can be criticised or not. But that in itself does not equate to conditional or unconditional support.
Agreed. If anyone wants to conditionally support the club then that is their prerogative – but it does beg the question why bother if you are only willing to support the club when everything is in accord with your own personal wishes/desires/view of the world. Not gonna happen is it? Tony Adam's hijacked Shankly's famous quote: "If you can't support us when we are losing don't support us when we are winning". Often quoted, but it eloquently gets right to the essence of being a fan – in my opinion anyway.
You normally associate unconditional support or love with someone or something where you have no say in the matter, a choice forced on you. You choose Arsenal – they don't come looking for you and force you in to it. There are a few on here that I believe have never uttered a single positive statement about our club in the 3 years I have been on JA – I am genuinely baffled as to why they bother, and I say that for the sake of their health/sanity because they have backed themselves in to a corner with no escape. They want Arsenal FC to orbit their world. May be it is simply that the rest of their lives are miserable and they are hell-bent on others feeling that pain too.
But the thread confuses the issue because I think what KAF is talking about it the right to be critical. I imagine no-one is going to take issue with that – it is the easiest thing in the world to do and is an integral part of being a fan. I have no problem with anyone having any level of criticism – but I do draw the line at vicious personal abuse of players/managers – always signals someone living out an insecure and unfulfilled life and probably low on the intelligence front as well.
Excellent comment.
Please, guys, let's get this straight: the word "unconditionally" can be quite misleading in the context above. There is no condition that can or should make a true fan turn his back on the club. Players come and go, but fans are always fans and they die fans.
"Unconditionally", as used above, simply means to accept everything the club does, unquestionably. I don't think that's appropriate. A fan can criticise his club, but it is simply becuz he wants the best for the club. Trust me, if the fans on this sight were manging Arsenal in real life, there will be no worldclass players left for other clubs to sign.
As fans, we must not always to the path of "YES" with everything that happens at Arsenal FC, and we can not all have a common opinion. But the main thing is that we all wish the club well.
Pardon the typo errors.
KickAssFan – I hear you. And you say:
"Trust me, if the fans on this site were managing Arsenal in real life, there will be no worldclass players left for other clubs to sign" – that made me laugh out loud. I thank you for that, made my day.
Mr Gavis says:
I love this comment. Have you come across a facebook page called Arsenal Action? They are so negative its almost as if they hate Arsenal. I would love to see your wisdom on that page because there are a lot of morons who lap up the negativity on that page.
Couldn't agree more @jonestown1
sevenitti says:
I support arsenal, but i do not support many of their actions, like signing Welbeck, having superhigh wages for average players, pulling us up to the top of PL wages, even though our top earners are miles below the top of individual pay checks. I support the club, but I do not support the treatment of Podolski.
Supporting Arsenal and supporting individuals should not be mixed up. I have been supporting Arsenal before Wenger and I will be supporting Arsenal after he leaves. In no way my support means that i should not voice my opinion and act like the three monkeys when I am not satisfied with players or the management of the club.
I am an Arsenal supporter, no matter who owns the club, who manages it, or who is playing. That is unconditional. I will always voice my opinion, that also is unconditional.
k-ool says:
Very well put.
If we support unconditionally, we have the right to criticize harshly or softly when we see nonsense like not taking strong quick action and anticipating in the transfer market or not buying a position we've needed for 3 years. Its all part of it just like it's part of it for some to be delusional in their assessment of the club too.
The difference is my passion is for this club to be better and on par with the elite while for some its for the club to stay stagnant and hope for miracles without any urgency to strengthen or improve on certain players we have.
there's no such thing as Conditional or unconditional club support……….as Long as u "Support"
Honest Opinion says:
No.We should not support if it wants to generate profits and until recently Arsenal Board were also interested more in Profits than in trophies.
Bayern demand £35 millon for Lewandowski if United want him. Still good price if true
quantic dream says:
its about time an article like this was written. am tired of this WOB bashing by "true gooners" who cowardly and happily accept mediocrity in the name of stability and longterm "success" . we want to see some aggression and ambition in this club. i know i will lose a lot of credibility for saying this but even on FIFA the Arsenal ratings are just sad. you will never win anything with Arsenal.
Haha i'm not going to pretend I don't play FIFA… Quite a lot. And I'd love to say the Arsenal ratings on Fifa don't irk me but they do.
But dude… It's a f@#king game! It's not at all even close to a benchmark of reality.
Short answer : yes. Long answer : y e s.
short support, i gave you thumbs up, long support i write it: thumbs up
We clearly need another source of goals, Walcott will be out injured for some time, it is bound to happen. That leaves us with Giroud who has proven to be unreliable when we need important goals for the past 3 seasons. Welbeck, what can I say, Walcott scored more goals than him in 442 minutes.
"it is bound to happen" ……. Really?…… Do u own a crystal ball?
Baz says:
Good question Kick Ass.
I reckon that this transfer window will put your question to the test. Wengers comments today suggest that he's more focussed on improving our current squad tactically than he is by adding new players. For me, the fans have every right to question this approach, particularly those fans who financially contribute to the clubs success by attending games, buying official merchandise and TV subscriptions. In effect much of the money at the club comes from the fans and with some of the highest ticket prices in Europe, the fans have the right to have the highest expectations.
At the end of the day, both the fans and the club want success. We may not always agree on how we obtain that success but if we're honest with ourselves, most of us will stick around regardless of how long it takes to be back to our best.
finbarr says:
I agree its fine for fans to question the approach of a club. What is not ok is slating players because they are not world class. Players who put there all in when putting on the Arsenal shirt. Players who are better than 90% of the other player in the EPL.
I will not disagree arsenal need another big game, not name, player. It is however nigh on impossible to guarantee this by throwing money at any specific player, you can weigh the odds up but you cant guarantee.
Fans who come on this sit slating Giroud, Mert, Welbeck etc are not only clueless but also hugely disrespectful. None of these players has ever given anything else but a 100%. They have all also performed to a very high standard, whilst also sometimes being a little inconsistent. Now to find those players that can play at that high standard consistently is very difficult. I agree the club should be picking up minimum one more top player this transfer window. But if they don't support the players we have or go and support City, Chelski or better still the soulless Real Madrid.
Exactly, Baz. Exactly.
When Chelsea won the last BPL, Terry mentioned that 'I am happy to be part of the players to bring the trophy back to the bridge. It's been too long'.
If I'm not wrong, it was 2009/2010 they won it last before 2014/2015…and Terry said it's been too long. Imagine…Chelsea are so used to winning trophies now.
We need to step up our winning ways as a team. With back-to-back FA cups, I'll like to believe we are on the right track.
And with additional quality signings (hopefully), we should be back at the top.
"Chelsea are so used to winning trophies now"
that phrase contains so much
galen says:
I think Arsenal fans are very loyal. I think they deserve better than what they get. The prices of everything at Arsenal is always more expensive than other football clubs iin Europe. But our fans are still there. Even At the emirates cup you will see a full house supporting Arsenal.
Look at United. Just 6months of bn rubbish and they were flying planes all over the place. I think we are very loyal fans. These football club deserves morethan just winning Fa Cups. Our fans deserve more.
That's the way London is for the most part, major cities are very expensive to live in. Every fan base can say we deserve more we deserve more than fa cup. Well we won the fa cup and all those other fans who think they are deserving won nothing. We got exactly what we deserved to win. We have a top manager who will bring us more successes not because we the fans are more deserving than other fans but because we have a top manager putting together a top team.
El Blaze says:
Certainly Galen, certainly!
Best article i have read here in a long time, great write up, KickAssFan!
disgusted1 says:
Totally agree galen and for the stupid fans that thumb you down i hope they are happy when we are playing europa mark my words Liverpool as done a complete overhaul and its not to play europa its for champions league. We barely got third last season and already the old Man thats in charge is hinting that we have Made it. Be happy if we make 4 th next season. We will not see a PL trophy at arsenal for the next decade with our current approach.
I don't have a problem with the fans supporting the club…I have a problem with the board/Majority shareholder. Is Silent Stan a fan of Arsenal or just a business man?
As much as I hate to make this comparison, look at Abramovich of Chelsea…the guy watches almost every match of Chelsea, and is on his feet, waving like a maniac to celebrate goals. As much as he is the owner of Chelsea, he is a fan too…that's why it's not difficult for their team to conclude signings. Unlike my dear Arsenal.
that is true. i like abramovich for being a fan, but hey, thats not our owner sobe it and lets at least be thankful for the fact that is silnt stan knows nothing about football he is rright in letting other do that job.
Yeah, that is the real problem – not having a scarf waving, johnny-come-lately fan as an owner who knows what is best for the club. Anyone for Whyte, Ridsdale, Ellis, Hicks & Gillet, Venky, Bates, Tan, Ashley, Allam, Winkelman…..etc etc. The last thing we need is a sole-owner fan with his own ideas. I'm indifferent to our board and don't care whether they cheer or not. I do know however that if there is no business there is no club.
For me, anyone who harbours dreams or fantasies about Arsenal being bought out by a mega rich individual who then sets out to buy the title with a "galactico" approach with no holds barred spending, is the absolute ultimate plastic fan.
a fan can criticize, but even doing that a fan always support.
the meaning of the verbs do not exclude one another.
for example: Saying Giroud is useless for example is not criticizing, is making a false statement. Saying we need to buy a new striker so we dont depend on him being fit or not or having a dry spell or not is supporting. Saying he misses chances is criticizing, not mentioning other greats missing chances is hiding the truth. Saying him or those other greats could have done better is criticizing while supporting. Calling him a donkey is not supporting
Gigi do you buy arsenal season tickets? Am sure you dont because you wouldnt be paying that prive todo see your team comes fourth every season.
Jeez says:
How exactly will OR is this gonna improve the team???
rpk says:
Liverpool is going for Reus..they don't deserve him!!
True lol
But I would take Reus over Sterling. Sterling is good but Reus is better.
Liverpool got a good deal for Sterling and Torres. Bad deal for Carroll lol
I think Chelsea getting Pedro for £14 millon is excellent business 🙁 sadly
… Really??
How many top players do you think actually want to play for Rodgers?? Or in a team captained by Jordan Henderson?
thats what I used to say..until i sat down with some friends and closely analyzed those ratings..we found them to be pretty much fair. The only thinh unrealistic with the game is Neymar's dribbling. thats it.
Class Is Permanent says:
Booing you're own players is the equivalent of cutting off your nose to spite your face. Supporters have the right to question their club, unfortunately too many do it in an overly negative, counter-productive way. The truth is that we don't know what happens behind the scenes, we only get to see ninety minutes each week; but after near twenty years of incredible service (if you have to brain cells to clang together you would see the incredible success of merely surviving stadium move years), I think we can trust that Wenger is doing everything he can to make us winners. Just because success in reality doesn't match your deluded, hyperbolic version of success, doesn't mean you should start throwing your toys out the pram. Protest when there is actually a problem, not when the club is clearly on the up. #commonsense
Obviously if the people running the club are endangering it well then the fans need to take action and boycott or whatever else needs to be done.
I understand why you ask that question but we are a long long ways off from it. People need to understand the competition in England isn't like other countries, even at the best of times the Prem was said to be the most competitive. I honestly believe we would never had made that move to our new home if it wasn't for the new mega spenders popping up.
Lets face it, we are always going to be Gooners no matter what. We get upset and we criticise but ultimately we will always support our club.
Samuel Akinsola Adebosin says:
KickAssFan, whose ass are you trying to kick? Don't tell me you want to try to instigate the Gooners against the Boss. I tell you that won't work because the Boss has withstood that pressure for the past 2 seasons running, as he has won the FA Cup twice and finished 4th & 3rd in the table. I know where you are coming from and also know where you are going. You want us to win the title after a long break and also win the CL for the 1st time in our history. And you don' believe some current Gunners are good enough to achieve those tasks. Nevertheless, I want to encourage you to be patient like d vulture that is said to be a patient bird. We will win those 2 Cups u dearly crave for at d appointed time of God. It is written, with God, nothing shall be impossible. So, let's be steadfast in our prayers for Arsenal trophies success to come to pass for the Gunners next season. Did I hear you shouting a resounding Amen to these prayers? As for signing new players and letting resident ones leave, let's keep talking.

opk philip says:
This is by far one of the most reasonable articles I have seen on just arsenal. Real madrid fan voiced out their grievances at the sale of Ike casilas. That's what big clubs fans do. The fans cannot get more what they dream to achieve.
Thanks men. Good job.
The fans I struggle to empathise with are the ones who completely disregard the massive setbacks that took place while Wenger was balancing the books, taking risks in the transfer market and having extreme difficulties managing a disproportionate wage-bill and losing our best players year after year.
The reputation, lack of ambition and financial backing was downright damaging. Competing with the empire Ferguson created, and extremely talented squad he assembled while Chelsea and City were setting a new benchmark for spending and wages which doubled and on occasion tripled what we were offering was a platform we were always going to struggle to compete with.
Though I understand the desire for success that really burns in some fans, I really struggle to understand how they could not see that we were taking one step forward and two steps back for so long and it wasn't going to change overnight when other teams in the league were buying the calibre of players we were constantly losing.
The past three seasons have all been steps forward. Players are emerging as key members of the squad, the older generation are being kept together while the younger members are as promising as they come. Instead of wondering if we're going to lose Sanchez, Cazorla, Ozil or Koscielny we're genuinely looking to add more players of a similar quality, and make no mistake, the Cech signing was of that quality. I just don't get how fellow fans don't want to get behind it!!
There's the token comments of 'accepting mediocrity' and 'stagnating' but we're f@#king not!!
F@#k Chelsea and Mourinho and the fact that they've spent a billion dollars on a squad to f#$king play like stoke. It's an absolute embarrassment, I actually enjoy watching Arsenal at least try to play like a big team. When it fails it goes up in flames, sure it burns but at least it's enjoyable and we play the sexiest football in the league.
F#$k United! Just have a look at LVG, He had Angel Di Maria in the squad but couldn't find a place for him as he'd rather hoof long balls and crosses to Fellaini than take a few risks and utilize one of the most dangerous players on the planet. Demoralized Falcao, made Luke Shaw a momentary forgotten name and spent 200million odd dollars to finish fourth… F#$k that pompous prick!! I hope he spends another 200mil to watch him fail…
F#$k City!! Sterling will be soon added to the list of youngsters careers they've completely ruined all for a big fat pay-check and a number checked off their HG quota because the club has zero concept of youth development. They're an absolute team of mercenaries who always hit a patch of season where they play like it. We beat the f#$kers twice out of three times this season. The inevitable purple patch that's gonna hit is going to be the difference between us and them this season.
F@#k Liverpool!! Rodgers is the biggest joke of a manager to manage a top club I've ever seen. 4-1 and he tried to highlight the '10 or so minutes' he thought they looked the better team. We embarrassed you Brendan!!! Ever heard of being classy in defeat? Guess it's over-rated.

That's the F***king truth, the most loyal of fans are Arsenal fans, in the whole world—-no hyperboles.
@KickAssFan……… I remember you from the revolution L()L ……..Btw Good article bro
Ahahahahhaha! Tnx, pal.
RSH says:
People are allowed to have different opinions. To expect millions of people from all over the world to have to same views are just ridiculous. Its what makes the community pretty great to me. If everyone thought the same way it would be boring. Yeah, we all argue about what the club does wrong or right, but in the end we all love Arsenal, so thats all that matters. 😛
BigWilli says:
BREAKING news: Mourinho is a pr*ck.
Stay tuned for more news and transfer info.
We all know that Arsenal are not having the kind of oil money like some clubs have and splashing it on players they want to recruit. Arsenal money comes-in in a purely earning ways. And they can't afford splashing it around to recruit new players, because they are productively earning it. Nobody gives them charity money to spend it on buying players and by extention buy the title like others are now doing. That's our problem they may say. That not withstanding, as long as there is hope for a tree by the scent of water to bud and grow both small & big branches, Arsenal have overcome their debts burden as they have now budded and bringing forth boughs for us to rest under their shades and start to enjoy ourselves. Let's wait for the branches to grow up very well. Pep Guadiola is embarking on a clear out of those he considered to be insubordinators and those who cannot play to his coaching style. Is Lewandoswki among the clear out? He isn't as good as he was at BVB for Baryen Munich last season for sure.
sonix, God can decide to be selective as we know Him to have selected Moses, Aaron, David and a host of others including the whole nation of ISRAEL to be a holy nation unto him. sonix, anything thing that is not of God is of satan. So, Arsenal can be select by God to win the BPL & CL next season. Did I hear you say Amen to that?

Q: More rows in column header I would like to get a table header like this:

But I'm able to get only column header without the third row (y1, y2, y3). How can I do that?
I have something like this so far:
protected ILayer createColumnHeaderLayer(IDataProvider dataProvider,
                                         ILayer bodyLayer,
                                         IUniqueIndexLayer dataLayer,
                                         SelectionLayer selectionLayer) {

    IDataProvider columnHeaderDataProvider = new TeppichDiagramHeaderDataProvider(dataProvider);
    DataLayer columnBaseLayer = new DataLayer(
            columnHeaderDataProvider,
            DataLayer.DEFAULT_COLUMN_WIDTH,
            30
    );
    ColumnHeaderLayer columnHeaderLayer = new ColumnHeaderLayer(columnBaseLayer, bodyLayer, selectionLayer, false);

    ColumnGroupModel columnGroupModel = new ColumnGroupModel();
    ColumnGroupHeaderLayer columnGroupHeaderLayer = new ColumnGroupHeaderLayer(
            columnHeaderLayer,
            selectionLayer,
            columnGroupModel,
            false
    );
    columnGroupHeaderLayer.addColumnsIndexesToGroup(
            "Group",
            3, 4, 5
    );

    return columnGroupHeaderLayer;
}

where TeppichDiagramHeaderDataProvider is a dataprovider for the column header. Where it returns 1 from its getRowCount() method.

The WWE Raw Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling world tag team championship created and promoted by the American promotion WWE, defended on their Raw brand division. It is one of three male tag team championships among WWE's three main brands, along with the SmackDown Tag Team Championship on SmackDown and the NXT Tag Team Championship on NXT. The current champions are RK-Bro (Riddle and Randy Orton), who are in their first reign.
The championship was originally established as the WWE Tag Team Championship on October 20, 2002, and the team of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit were the inaugural champions. It was introduced for the SmackDown brand as a second title for tag teams in the promotion to complement WWE's original World Tag Team Championship, which became exclusive to Raw. Both titles were unified in 2009 and were collectively referred to as the "Unified WWE Tag Team Championship" while officially remaining independently active until the World Tag Team Championship was formally decommissioned in 2010. As a result of the 2016 WWE Draft, the championship became exclusive to Raw with a subsequent rename, and SmackDown created the SmackDown Tag Team Championship as a counterpart title.

2 Belt design
3 Reigns
Template:Multiple image Upon the WWE brand extension in 2002, the company's original World Tag Team Championship initially became exclusive to the SmackDown! brand and was later reassigned to the Raw brand, leaving the former without a tag team title. As a result, then-SmackDown! General Manager Stephanie McMahon introduced the WWE Tag Team Championship and commissioned it to be the tag team title for the SmackDown! brand on October 3, 2002. She stated that the inaugural champions would be determined from an eight-team tournament. On October 20, 2002, the team of Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit defeated Rey Mysterio and Edge at No Mercy in the tournament final to become the inaugural WWE Tag Team Champions.[1]

On October 17, 2007, SmackDown! and ECW announced a talent sharing agreement that enabled talent from either brand's roster to compete on both brands. As a result, the title became eligible to be contended and defended on both brands. In late 2008 through early 2009, then-WWE Tag Team Champions The Colóns (Carlito and Primo) engaged in rivalry with then-World Tag Team Champions John Morrison and The Miz, which resulted in the announcement on the March 17 episode of ECW that at WrestleMania 25, both teams would defend their titles against each other and the winning team would hold both titles.[2] The Colóns defeated Morrison and Miz, and thus unified the titles into what became known as the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship, the umbrella term for what officially remained two active championships that were now collectively defended.[3] The championships would be defended as the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship on any brand until August 2010. That month, the Anonymous Raw General Manager announced that the World Tag Team Championship would be decommissioned in favor of continuing the WWE Tag Team Championship, which received a new, single set of championship belts, which were presented to then-champions The Hart Dynasty by Bret Hart. The WWE Tag Team Championship became the sole tag team championship in WWE and was defended on any brand. The first brand extension ended in August 2011.[4]
Following the reintroduction of the brand extension in July 2016, then-champions The New Day (Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods) were drafted to the Raw brand, making the championship exclusive to Raw. In response, SmackDown created the SmackDown Tag Team Championship on August 23, 2016. The WWE Tag Team Championship was subsequently renamed to reflect its exclusivity to Raw.[1] In 2019, WWE's former developmental territory NXT became the promotion's third major brand when it was moved to the USA Network in September, thus making the NXT Tag Team Championship the third major tag team title for men in WWE.[5]
At WrestleMania 34 on April 8, 2018, then-Raw Tag Team Champions Cesaro and Sheamus were scheduled to defend the titles against Braun Strowman and a partner of his choosing. At the event, Strowman revealed that his partner would be a fan from the live audience. He then went out into the crowd and picked 10-year old Nicholas, and the two defeated Cesaro and Sheamus for the titles. This made Nicholas the youngest WWE champion in history. The following night on Raw, the two relinquished the titles.[6]
Brand designation
Following the events of the WWE brand extension, an annual WWE draft was established, in which select members of WWE's roster are reassigned to a different brand.[7] After the WWE Tag Team Championship was unified with the World Tag Team Championship as the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship, the champions could appear and defend the titles on any WWE brand.[8] The titles were combined as the WWE Tag Team Championship in August 2010 with a single set of belts, and continued to be defended on any brand.[9] The brand extension was discontinued on August 29, 2011, but it was revived on July 19, 2016. The following is a list of dates indicating the transitions of the WWE (Raw) Tag Team Championship between the Raw, SmackDown, and ECW brands.
Date of transition
October 20, 2002 SmackDown Championship established as the WWE Tag Team Championship for SmackDown after the World Tag Team Championship became exclusive to Raw. Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit became the inaugural champions at No Mercy.
November 13, 2007 ECW The WWE Tag Team Championship moved to ECW after John Morrison and The Miz, members of the ECW brand, defeated Matt Hardy and Montel Vontavious Porter to win the WWE Tag Team Championship. However, as part of a talent exchange agreement between SmackDown and ECW, teams of either brand could challenge for the title.
July 20, 2008 SmackDown The WWE Tag Team Championship returned to SmackDown after Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder, members of the SmackDown brand, defeated John Morrison and The Miz to win the WWE Tag Team Championship. The talent exchange agreement was still in effect during this time.
April 5, 2009 N/A At WrestleMania 25, The Colóns unified the WWE Tag Team Championship and World Tag Team Championship as the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship. Both titles remained active and were defended on any brand.
The World Tag Team Championship was decommissioned in August 2010, and "Unified" was dropped from the name.
July 19, 2016 Raw Reintroduction of brand split.
WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day (Big E, Kofi Kingston, and Xavier Woods) were drafted to Raw during the 2016 WWE Draft.
The title was renamed to Raw Tag Team Championship after SmackDown introduced the SmackDown Tag Team Championship.
Belt design
One-time champions The Hart Dynasty (Tyson Kidd and David Hart Smith, with Natalya), the first team to hold the redesigned WWE Tag Team Championship belts introduced in 2010
In August 2010, the WWE Tag Team Championship received a redesign. Taking inspiration from Greece, the belts feature a center plate dominated by two Spartan helmets facing outward and the center plate is encircled with a meander pattern. At the top of the center plate is the WWE logo and at the bottom is a banner that reads "Tag Team" on one line and "Champions" below that. On both sides of the center plate are two side plates. The inner side plates feature the WWE logo and are encircled with the meander pattern, while the outer side plates feature a single Spartan helmet facing inward. When this belt design was introduced in 2010, the plates were bronze colored and featured the long-standing WWE scratch logo and the straps were black. In August 2014, the belts, along with all other pre-existing championship belts in WWE at the time, received a minor update, replacing the scratch logo with WWE's current logo that was originally used for the WWE Network.
In August 2016, after the reintroduction of the brand split and the creation of the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the WWE Tag Team Championship was renamed to Raw Tag Team Championship. The belts received an update on December 19 that year to reflect the name change. Featuring the same physical design, the plates were made silver and the straps changed to red, countering the silver plates on blue straps design of the SmackDown Tag Team Championship belts. While all of WWE's other championship belts have been updated to feature customizable side plates for the champion's logos, the Raw and SmackDown tag titles and the 24/7 Championship are the only championship belts in the promotion that lack this feature.
Main article: List of WWE Raw Tag Team Champions
As of January 16, 2022, there have been 84 reigns between 65 teams composed of 95 individual champions, and one vacancy. The team of Cesaro and Sheamus and The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) have the most reigns as a team at four, while individually, Kingston and Seth Rollins have the most with six. The New Day's second reign is also the longest reign at 483 days and they are the only team to hold the championship for over one consecutive year—Big E is also credited for this reign as during New Day's first two reigns, Big E, Kingston, and Woods were all recognized as champion under the Freebird Rule (Big E was split from the team in the 2020 WWE Draft). John Cena and The Miz's sole reign is the shortest reign at 9 minutes, due to The Corre invoking their rematch clause immediately after losing the title. As a team, The New Day (across its two different variants of team members) also have the longest combined reign at 627 days, while Kingston individually has the longest combined reign at 912 days (910 days as recognized by WWE). Nicholas is the youngest champion at 10 years old (also making him the youngest champion in WWE history), while Billy Gunn is the oldest champion at age 50.
RK-Bro (Riddle and Randy Orton) are the current champions in their first reign as a team and individually. They defeated previous champions, AJ Styles and Omos on August 21, 2021 at SummerSlam in Paradise, Nevada.

Pictures of Female Facebook Users in India Being Used to Promote Porn Sites
Beware female Facebook users in India when you are uploading your pictures in your favourite social networking website, your pictures may be among several thousands that are being morphed and misused to promote online sex chats and pornographic content.
A group of ethical hackers, Team Kerala Cyber Warriors, reportedly brought down several Facebook profiles and pages engaged in copying pictures of girls from their Facebook albums and misusing them by morphing the images to promote porn sites. Hackers found out that the followers of these pages with explicit content are equipped with cameras and smartphones. Not only do they steal pictures of girls on Facebook, they are also taking photographs of girls at public places and sending them to the administrators of these pages.

Earlier, such crimes were committed as an act of revenge, after a break-up for example, but criminals are now using pictures of girls to lure users to paid sex websites or extort money from them. Experts believe more than 40 per cent of female Facebook users are victims of such crimes in India.
"This is the biggest online threat we face today. Criminals are copying and saving pictures of female users on social media. They are using pictures of attractive women to entice users to connect on sex chats. There are several such active pages, but cops are barely doing anything to take them down," said cyber crime expert Kislay Choudhary, who has worked with Delhi and Noida Police in several cases,reported by Mail Today.

A team of 15 white-hat hackers of Kerala Cyber Warriors claims to have hacked at least 70 Facebook profiles and several other pages which are running such sex chats. The sites blocked by hackers have thousands of likes and can be accessed anywhere across the country. Hackers claim that these criminals are faking their identity to create such pages, but they (the hackers) are exposing their phone numbers, address and even their IP addresses, to shame them.
So careful while you uploading your images in Facebook and if you found someone is misusing your pictures lodge a complaint as fast as possible.

Баллада № 1 соль минор, op. 23 — баллада для фортепиано Фредерика Шопена. Завершенное в 1835 году, оно является одним из самых популярных произведений Шопена. Типичное выступление длится девять-десять минут.

История
Баллада восходит к эскизам Шопена, сделанным в 1831 году во время его восьмимесячного пребывания в Вене. Она была завершена в 1835 году после его переезда в Париж, где он посвятил ее барону Натаниэлю фон Штокхаузену, послу Ганновера во Франции.

В 1836 году Роберт Шуман писал: "У меня есть новая Баллада Шопена. Мне кажется, это самое близкое к его гениальности произведение (хотя и не самое блестящее). Я даже сказал ему, что это моя самая любимая из всех его работ. После долгой, задумчивой паузы он решительно сказал мне: «Я рад, потому что и мне она больше всего нравится, это моя самая дорогая работа».

Структура

Пьеса начинается с первого обращения мажорного аккорда A, неаполитанского аккорда, который подразумевает величественную ауру, и заканчивается диссонирующим левым аккордом D, G и E , который не разрешается до конца. Хотя в оригинальной рукописи Шопена в качестве верхней ноты четко обозначена E , этот аккорд вызвал некоторые разногласия, и поэтому некоторые версии произведения, такие как издание Клиндворта, включают D, G, D как оссию.

Основной раздел баллады строится из двух основных тем. Краткое вступление плавно перетекает в первую тему в соль миноре, представленную в такте 8. После драматического развития вторая тема в ми-бемоль мажоре вводится в такте 68. За экспозицией вновь следует разработка, в которой две темы, транспонированные в другие тональности (ля минор и ля мажор), претерпевают трансформацию. Затем в репризе представляются две темы в их исходной тональности, хотя и в обратном порядке.

Громовой аккорд вводит коду, отмеченную Presto con fuoco, в которой первоначальная неаполитанская гармония вновь возникает в постоянном динамическом движении вперед, что в конечном итоге завершает произведение в огненной двойной октавной гамме, бегущей по клавиатуре.

В целом произведение структурно сложно и не ограничивается строго какой-либо конкретной формой, но включает в себя идеи в основном из сонатных и вариационных форм. Отличительной чертой является его тактовый размер. В то время как остальные три баллады написаны в строгом сложном двойном такте с тактовым размером , баллада № 1 имеет отклонения от этого. Введение пишется в размере , а более обширная кодовая часть Presto con fuoco пишется в  или . Остальная часть произведения написана в , а не в , как многие характеризуют его. Этот раздел также считается одним из самых сложных в техническом и музыкальном отношении среди произведений Шопена.

В популярной культуре
Баллада занимает видное место в нескольких фильмах. Он исполняется на экране в «Газовом свете» польским пианистом Якобом Гимпелем, известным как Пианист. Спектакль занимает центральное место в сюжете фильма Романа Полански 2002 года «Пианист», где он заставляет немецкого офицера спрятать и снабдить едой пианиста Владислава Шпильмана, которого играет Эдриен Броуди. В саундтреке его играет Януш Олейничак. Это также появляется в фильме 1991 года «Экспромт», где Шопен играет эту пьесу, когда его прерывает Жорж Санд, и он впервые встречает ее.

В 2010 году британский журналист Алан Расбриджер (редактор The Guardian) посвятил год изучению Баллады № 1 и выпустил книгу об этом опыте « Играй снова: любитель против невозможного».

Это произведение также было предметом документального фильма Channel 4 2013 года «Шопен спас мне жизнь». Он цитируется в Симфонии № 21 Мечислава Вайнберга («Кадиш»).

После смерти Шопена бельгийский скрипач и музыкант Эжен Изаи сделал собственную аранжировку Баллады № 1 для скрипки и фортепиано. Эта аранжировка использовалась в качестве саундтрека к заключительному эпизоду японского аниме «Твоя апрельская ложь» 2014—2015 годов.

Японский фигурист и двукратный олимпийский чемпион Юдзуру Ханю откатал свою короткую программу под балладу № 1 за четыре сезона с 2014 по 2020 год. Программа принесла ему четыре мировых рекорда и способствовала завоеванию его второго олимпийского титула, например, завершению первого в карьере турнира Super Slam в мужском одиночном разряде. По состоянию на декабрь 2021 года «Баллада № 1» Ханью получила пять самых высоких оценок за короткую программу во всех системах судейства и является самой успешной программой в этом сегменте соревнований.
