Mauresmo wins at French Open

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

PARIS — Amelie Mauresmo held her nerve and her serve when it counted Tuesday, reaching the second round of the French Open by defeating Olga Savchuk 7-5, 4-6, 6-1 in a match disrupted by rain.

Tennis fans are open to the thought of better weather in Paris, where the French Open has felt rain each of the first three days of play.

Mauresmo, who missed the Italian and German Opens because of a rib injury, looked shaky much of her time on center court.
The start of play Tuesday was delayed 2 hours, 50 minutes because of rain, but Svetlana Kuznetsova and Dinara Safina reached the second round before another rain delay of nearly three hours.

When play resumed, No. 14 Agnieszka Radwanska defeated Mariya Koryttseva 6-4, 6-3.

Each of the first three days of the French Open has been affected by rain, but Tuesday was the worst yet, with less than three hours of play the entire day. Only 13 matches were completed, five from the men’s tournament and eight from the women’s.

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Tiger Woods entered the room with a slight limp and unwavering determination to play the U.S. Open.

“The knee’s doing better,” said Woods, who had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee April 15. “The rehab is boring. It gets really old riding that bike, man. But everything’s on schedule. Just been training and trying to get this thing organized for the Open, and it’s right on schedule for that.”

Woods spoke Tuesday at Congressional Country Club. The second annual edition of Woods’ own PGA Tour event, the AT&T National, returns to Congressional in July.

An Art Museum’s Humble Beginnings

Monday, May 26th, 2008

Every big dream begins with a simple idea and Stark Museum of Art is no exception. This Texan museum was a concept which HJ Lutcher Stark and his mother, Miriam Lutcher Stark. Miriam Lutcher Stark is a lover of art from the American West while his son prefers taking a bit of art, furniture and decorative items from around the world.

This museum has a website that walks every online visitor to a quick glimpse to this museum. Visitors will find out that it does not show the entire virtual museum showroom – just a quick glance to the museum and all. Nothing beats to actually visiting the exhibits to see all the magnificent art, sculpture and furniture which visitors definitely agree.

In particular, the museum houses Western American Art and artifacts which was a previous collection from Miriam Lutcher Stark. It provides a great way to learn more about the American Western Art and American Indian Art. It has many rare books and manuscripts including John James Audubon’s “The Birds of America”.

Decorative arts collection also makes an interesting visit. The collection is primarily of glass and porcelain and one of their notable collections is “The United States in Crystal” showing a series of fifty bowls engraved with scenes from the fifty states. Dorothy Doughty’s porcelain bird series is another artist collection which featured in the museum.

If it were not for the founder’s zeal in collecting bits and pieces of the old times, it will not be easy for us to know understand how America came to be. The museum is a quick way to learn about this particular art museum: it contains remnants of the old times and with these art collections one can easily comprehend how America came to be. Getting to their site is a good way to get started with a good educational tour within that place.
