I do not follow figure skating as a sports. I came across this recent video and it seems to me the sports has entered yet a higher level of athleticism. Enjoy!

Thanks for that Ax. My husband had an RX7 and he really enjoyed watching the video.

That was cool.

Reading about the Wankel, it seems like it was plagued with all kinds of problems (seals, pollution, inefficient fuel use, etc) which, ultimately, made it non-sustainable despite the clever engineering. Wikipedia talks about using hydrogen (!) as a fuel which is faster burning than gasoline and producing no emissions.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I’ve always thought so.

Nice little piece she played, too!

Those repeated notes. Damn.

The piece sounds more like Liszt than like Schumann.

You’re in the ballpark. It’s a Tausig transcription.

Wang is really good with these kinds of show pieces. When I first saw her play

I felt pure hatred only. I'd have loved to take her Louboutin stilettos and ramm them into her head.

The Schumann/Tausig reminds me of this gem of a transcription by Rachmaninoff:
