They play baseball at the Triple-A (AAA) level, the most difficult level before Major League Baseball, against other baseball teams in the Pacific Coast League (a group of 10 baseball teams at the same level). The Rainiers are partnered with the Seattle Mariners, a Major League Baseball team. When a player shows that he plays well at this level, he may be moved up to play for the Mariners.

The team started playing baseball in 1960 as the **Tacoma Giants**. The team changed their name to the **Tacoma Cubs** in 1966, **Tacoma Twins** in 1972, **Tacoma Yankees** in 1978, **Tacoma Tugs** in 1979, and **Tacoma Tigers** in 1980. They became the Tacoma Rainiers in 1995 because Mount Rainier is located near Tacoma.

The Rainiers have played at a stadium called Cheney Stadium since 1960.

Cowsay

**cowsay** is a configurable text filter that generates an ASCII art image of a cow (or other creatures) saying or thinking a message. Originally created by Tony Monroe in 1999, the program is written in Perl and has become a light-hearted tool often found in terminal screenshots, IRC, and documentation.

Besides the default cow, users can choose from a wide variety of alternative character templates (called ".cow" files), including Tux the Penguin and various fantasy animals. A companion program, , renders messages as thoughts (using thought bubbles instead of speech bubbles).

The cow’s expression and behavior can be customized using parameters that alter its eyes, tongue, or replace it entirely. Cowsay has achieved cult status in hacker culture and continues to be included in many Linux distributions. It was even featured as Debian’s “Package of the Day” in 2007.

## Usage

A typical use case involves piping output from the  command into :

To use a different character template, such as Tux:

Piano Concerto No. 2 (Beethoven)

The **Piano Concerto No. 2** in B-flat major, Op. 19, by Ludwig van Beethoven was mostly created between 1787 and 1789. It was made public in December 1801 as Op. 19, after the making public of the Piano Concerto No. 1 in C major as Op. 15 that was created after his second concerto.

Beethoven may have first played it on 29 March 1795, at Vienna's Burgtheater, his first time playing in public. Beethoven did not like this work, telling Franz Anton Hoffmeister that, with the Piano Concerto No. 1, it was "not one of my best." He changed the concerto many times, in 1790, 1793, 1794-1795, 1798 and 1801. The changes from 1795 are often played today.

## Movements

The work was created for solo piano, flute, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns and strings; it is the only one of Beethoven's seven finished concertos that does not have clarinets, trumpets and timpani. The concerto has three movements:

The first movement starts with the orchestra playing the tonic chord, and uses chromatic lines in the piano. The second movement is calm and slow, while the ending Rondo is similar to the first movement.

Piano Concerto No. 3 (Beethoven)

Beethoven's **Piano Concerto No. 3** in C minor, Op. 37 may have been created in 1800, although this has been argued by some musicologists. It was first played on 5 April 1803, with Beethoven as the soloist. On the same day, the Second Symphony and _Christ on the Mount of Olives_ were also played for the first time. The work was made public in 1804 and was dedicated to Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia. The first theme is similar to that of Mozart's 24th Piano Concerto, also in C minor.

## Structure

The concerto was created for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets in B, 2 bassoons, 2 horns in E, E and C, 2 trumpets in C, timpani, strings, and piano soloist.

As is normal for Classical/Romantic-era concertos, the work is in three movements:

## First performance

The piece was not finished when it was first played. Beethoven's friend Ignaz von Seyfried, who turned the pages of the music for him, wrote:
> I saw almost nothing but empty pages; at the most, on one page or another a few Egyptian hieroglyphs wholly unintelligible to me were scribbled down to serve as clues for him; for he played nearly all the solo part from memory since, as was so often the case, he had not had time to set it all down on paper.

Piano Concerto No. 4 (Beethoven)

Ludwig van Beethoven's **Piano Concerto No. 4** in G major, Op. 58, was created in 1805 and 1806. Beethoven was the soloist in the first public playing as part of the concert on 22 December 1808 at Vienna's Theater an der Wien.

## Orchestration

It is scored for solo piano and an orchestra that has a flute, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, timpani, and strings.

## Playing and reception

It was first played in March 1807 at a concert at the home of Prince Franz Joseph von Lobkowitz. The _Coriolan Overture_ and the Fourth Symphony were also first played in that concert. However, the first time it was played in public  was not until a concert on 22 December 1808 at Vienna's Theater an der Wien. The concert was Beethoven's last time playing as a soloist with orchestra, as well as the first playings of the _Choral Fantasy_ and the Fifth and Sixth symphonies. Beethoven dedicated the concerto to his friend and student, the Archduke Rudolph.

A writing in the 17 May 1809 edition of the _Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung_ says that "[this concerto] is the most admirable, singular, artistic and complex Beethoven concerto ever". After its first performance, the piece was not well known until 1836, when it was changed by Felix Mendelssohn.

The first recording was done by York Bowen and made public by Vocalion in 1925. Today, the work is recorded often, and it is liked by people who go to concerts.

## Cadenzas

Cadenzas for the Fourth Piano Concerto have been written many pianists and composers, such as: Beethoven (two separate sets of cadenzas), Johannes Brahms, Clara Schumann, Ferruccio Busoni, Hans von Bülow, Ignaz Moscheles, Camille Saint-Saëns, Anton Rubinstein, Wilhelm Kempff, Nikolai Medtner, Eugen d'Albert, Leopold Godowsky, Wilhelm Backhaus, Samuil Feinberg, Manuel M. Ponce, and more.

## Reception

, it was the second-most played piano concerto at Carnegie Hall, with 192 plays.

Telmatobius simonsi

The **sucre water frog** (_Telmatobius simonsi_) is a frog.  It lives in Bolivia.

## Home

This frog spends almost all its time in the water.  It lives in streams in cloud forests and Yungas forests. People see them on rocks and in the mud at the bottoms of streams. Scientists saw this frog between 1000 and 2800 meters above sea level in valleys between the Andes Mountains.

Scientists have seen this frog in some protected parks: Parque Nacional El Palmar and Parque Nacional Amboró.

## Danger

Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is in very big danger of dying out.  There were many of these frogs years ago, but a lot of them died at the same time.  Scientists believe the fungus _Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis_ killed the frogs by giving them the fungal disease chytridiomycosis, which has killed many frogs in South America. Human beings also change the places where the frog lived to make farms, to get wood to build with, put bad chemicals in the water, and let animals eat grass near the frogs' home.
Telmatobius punctatus

The **Huánaco water frog** (_Telmatobius punctatus_) is a frog.  It lives in Peru.

## Home

Scientists have seen this frog one protected park: Nor Yauyos-Cochas Landscape Reserve.

## Young

People see the tadpoles swimming in streams that have plants growing in them.

## Danger

Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is in big danger of dying out and Peru's Categorization in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna says it is in very big danger of dying out. Potato farms, mines, and houses put bad chemicals in the water. Human beings cut down too many trees. People also use this frog to use in food and medicine. Scientists believe the fungal disease chytridiomycosis could kill this frog too, but they have not found the fungus _Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis_ on this frog yet.

Piano Concerto No. 6 (Beethoven)

**Piano Concerto No. 6** in D major, Hess 15, is a piano concerto by Ludwig van Beethoven that was not completed. It is not to be mixed up with the transcription by the Beethoven for piano and orchestra of the Violin Concerto in D Major, Op. 61, which can be called the 6th Piano Concerto.

## Description

Beethoven spent a lot of time on the concerto in the end of 1814 and start of 1815. He made seventy pages of sketches for the first movement, and started writing a full score that is almost completed from the start of the movement to the middle of the solo beginning (bar 182), but the writing starts to be less clear as the work goes on and there are signs that the composer was not happy with or could not decide on some parts.

A complete first movement was made by British scholar Nicholas Cook in 1987.
Violin Concerto in C (Beethoven)

The **Violin Concerto** in C major, WoO 5 is a concerto by Ludwig van Beethoven  from 1790–1792.

## Description

Only a 259-bar part of the first movement in Beethoven's writing is still around, and is kept in the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna. There is argument about if this is a part of a completed movement, the completed concerto, or was never completed.

The work is written for solo violin, flute, two oboes, two bassoons, two French horns and strings.

Mas-Kom-Yah

**Mas-Kom-Yah** is a theater play written by the future mayor of Istanbul, Prime Minister of Turkey and President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in 1975, based on the book _Kızıl Pençe_ ("Red Claw") written by the Islamist preacher Mustafa Bayburtlu. The name Mas-Kom-Yah is an abbreviation for **_Mas**on, **Kom**ünist ve **Yah**udi_ (Freemason, Communist and Jew).

## Plot

The non-religious factory owner Ayhan Bey sends his son abroad for education. Years later, the son, having left Islam, returns to Turkey. This leads to a fight between Ayhan Bey and his son. At the same time, the factory owner's workers rebel and take over Ayhan Bey's property. They are incited by a Jewish worker pretending to be a Turkish Muslim. He is shown in the play as extremely evil, and in the end incites his colleagues to murder Ayhan Bey.

## Performance

Erdoğan, who wrote the play, also participated in the production as director and actor, playing the role of the factory owner's son. The play was performed throughout Turkey from 1975 until the 1980 Turkish coup d'état.

## Criticism

In 2012, the German weekly news magazine _Der Spiegel_, described the play as an antisemitic piece and accused Erdoğan of seeing theater only as propaganda, and of hindering theater work by liberal and secular actors, directors and screenwriters as Prime Minister, because theaters and stages in today's Republic of Turkey are partly liberal and secular centers of society.

Microsoft v. MikeRoweSoft

***Microsoft v. MikeRoweSoft*** was a legal case in 2004. It was between the company Microsoft and a 17-year-old student from Canada named Mike Rowe. Rowe made a website called **MikeRoweSoft.com**. The name sounded like "Microsoft". Microsoft said this was too close to their company name and asked him to give it up.

## Background

Mike Rowe made the website in 2003 for his small web design business. He chose the name as a joke, using his real name and adding "soft". Microsoft said this broke their trademark and first offered him $10 to give up the name.

Rowe asked for $10,000 instead. Microsoft then sent him a long legal letter. They said he was cybersquatting, which means using a name to get money from a big company.

## Public reaction and deal

The story became popular in the news. Many people supported Rowe. His website got so many visitors that it went offline. Microsoft got bad publicity and later agreed to a deal.

Rowe gave Microsoft the website name. In return, he got:

- an Xbox with games
- a trip to Microsoft in Redmond, Washington
- help with Microsoft training
- money to pay his costs
- a subscription to a Microsoft developer program

He made a new website called MikeRoweForums.com. Rowe also gave most of the money people sent him to a children's charity called Canuck Place.

## After the case

After the case, Rowe sold the legal papers on eBay. Many people looked at the auction, but most of the high bids were fake. The real final price was $1,037.

Later, Microsoft said they may have been too strict. Some experts said Microsoft had to protect their trademark. Others said Rowe could have won because he was using his real name.

Canuck Place

**Canuck Place** is a children's hospice located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. It was the first free-standing hospice for children in North America and provides care for children with serious illnesses and support for their families. The hospice offers specialized pediatric palliative care, which focuses on comfort, quality of life, and support for physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs.

The idea for Canuck Place began in 1991. Brenda Eng and George Jarvis, along with the support of the Vancouver Canucks hockey team and its community foundation, helped bring the vision to life. Arthur Griffiths, who owned the Canucks at the time, played a key role in supporting the project. Canuck Place officially opened its doors in 1995.

The building that houses Canuck Place is a historic mansion. In the 1920s, it was used as the headquarters of the Ku Klux Klan in British Columbia. The building has since been completely repurposed to serve children and families in need, symbolizing a powerful transformation from a place of hate to one of healing and compassion.

Canuck Place’s model of care has influenced other children’s hospices around the world. It continues to provide vital services free of charge to families across the province.
Arthur Griffiths (businessman)

**Arthur R. Griffiths** (born 1957) is a Canadian businessman and community leader. He used to own the Vancouver Canucks (a hockey team), the Vancouver Grizzlies (a basketball team), and the arena where they played. He helped bring the 2010 Winter Olympics to Vancouver and later ran for office in British Columbia.

Griffiths is the son of Emily and Frank Griffiths. He began working with the Canucks in 1981. In 1988, he took full control of the team from his father and helped build a new arena, now called Rogers Arena, because the old one was too small. His father passed away in 1994.

In 1995, he helped start the Vancouver Grizzlies basketball team. The team later moved to Memphis, Tennessee. Griffiths sold both the Canucks and the Grizzlies by 1997. He also worked with a Russian sportswear company at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London and the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

In 1998, Griffiths was asked to help lead Vancouver's bid for the 2010 Winter Olympics. With his leadership, the bid won in 2003 and the Games were awarded to Vancouver and Whistler.

In 1991, while leading the Canucks’ community work, he supported an idea to create a children’s hospice. This became Canuck Place, the first free-standing hospice for children in North America. It supports children with serious illnesses and their families.

Griffiths tried to enter politics in 2008. He ran as a BC Liberal Party candidate in a special election but lost to Spencer Chandra Herbert of the New Democratic Party.

He studied at BCIT, graduating in 1980. He is married and lives in Vancouver.
