Best of the Web This Week

I was expecting the night off last night, but alas, it was not to be.  They called yesterday morning while I was out and about to ask me to work.  So I said yes, with the upcoming move, the extra hours are a good thing to have.  As a consequence I am running a tad bit later getting this up as you can tell from the time stamp.  So rather than be all long winded with a overflowing list of grumbles and bitches, I will just move on to the review and the music.

I did not gather as many photographs this week, I have a backlog of news and photos still to process.  However I did have nearly 1500 to sift and sort which I did not get to do until this morning.  Then again there were so many outstanding photographs, I ended up with 87 selections for you to review.  As usual it is an eclectic mix of male musculature  that captures a wide range of body types and ethnicities, from the simple eye grabber to the stunningly sensual, demure to devilish, oh wow to oooohhhh ffffuuuuuuuccccckkk.   So you shall have your 'work' cut out for you to try to decide which is your favorite for this week.  

To get and keep you into the proper frame of mind to closely examine and gaze lingeringly upon each of these objects d'arte, I once again have a fabulous play list for your Musical Moment for today.  As I stated in yesterday's post, this play list continues our Vivaldi 'kick' for this week with the complete repertoire of his music written for the cello.  Sort of a 'cello out' session.  Included in the play list are Concerto in F major, RV 412, Concerto in A Minor, RV 419, Concerto in D Major, RV 404, Concerto in C Major, RV 399, Concerto in D Minor, RV 406, Concerto in C Major, RV 398,l Concerto in F Major, RV 410, Concerto In E Flat Major, RV 408, Concerto In G Minor for two Cellos, RV 531, Concerto In G Major, RV 413, Concerto In C Minor, RV 401, Concerto In A Minor, RV 422, Concerto In C Major, RV 400, Concerto in B Flat Major, RV 423, Concerto in C Minor, RV 402, Concerto in A Minor, RV 418, Concerto in D Major, RV 403, Concerto in B Minor, RV 424, Concerto in D Minor, RV 407, Concerto in E Minor, RV 409, Concert in G Minor, RV 416, Concert in F Major, RV 411, Concert in D Minor, RV 405, Concert in in A Minor, RV 420, Concerto in G Major, RV 414, Concert in G Minor, RV 417 and Concert in A Minor, RV 421.  Today's performance features the City of London Sinfonia with Nicholas Kraemer on Harpsichord and conducting and Rphael Wallfisch on Solo Cello.
