All 23 episodes from Season 2 of the series about Superman's early
life. In 'Vortex', Clark (Tom Welling) rescues Lana (Kristin Kreuk)
from the eye of a tornado, and then discovers that the storm has
powered up his spaceship and deposited it in an exposed position in
a cornfield. In 'Heat', Clark goes into hiding after discovering
his new power of heat vision, which can have some rather startling
effects. 'Duplicity' sees Pete (Sam Jones) happening upon Clark's
spaceship in the cornfield, which forces Clark to reveal his secret
to him. In 'Red', Clark is given his high school ring which is
supposedly set with ruby, but is actually red meteor rock. The rock
has an instant and dramatic effect on him, changing him into a
wayward rebel who overspends on the family credit card and picks
fights. In 'Nocturne', Lana finds a love poem left for her at her
parents' grave by Byron Moore (Sean Faris), an elusive boy with a
dark and dangerous secret. 'Lineage' sees a mysterious woman,
Rachel Dunlevy (Blair Brown) turning up in Smallville, claiming to
be Clark's biological mother. This prompts the Kents to finally
reveal to Clark the truth about what happened when they discovered
him as a toddler in the cornfield. In 'Ryan', Clark tests his
powers to the limit to save Ryan (Ryan James), a telepathic boy who
is being used as a test subject at the Summerholt Research Facility
by the evil Dr Garner (Martin Cummins). In 'Dichotic', a gifted
student, Ian (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) has cloned himself and is
dating both Lana and Chloe (Allison Mack) at the same time. Clark
tries to warn the girls, but they attribute his interference to
jealousy. In 'Skinwalkers', Clark falls into a cave filled with
Native American inscriptions that hold the key to his true
identity. 'Visage' sees the return of Whitney Fordman (Eric
Johnson), which disrupts the relationship betwen Clark and Lana -
until his odd behaviour prompts Clark to make a shocking discovery
about his true identity. In 'Suspect', Jonathan finds himself
framed for murder after being found in possession of a murder
weapon. But Clark and Pete mount their own investigation and
discover a tangle of motives and possible suspects. 'Insurgence'
sees Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) discovering that Lionel has secretly
installed an electronic surveillance system in his mansion. In
retaliation, Lex hires crooks to install cameras in Lionel's
Metropolis office... In 'Rush', a parasitic worm infects Pete and
Chloe, turning them into wild adrenaline junkies. In 'Prodigal',
Lex tracks down his long-lost brother Lucas (Paul Wasilewski), and
brings him home to Smallville in the hope that they can buy Lionel
out and unite against him. 'Fever' sees Martha (Annette O'Toole)
fall into a coma after breathing in meteor dust. It is then
revealed that she is pregnant with Clark's brother or sister.
'Rosetta' features a guest appearance from the original Superman
movie actor, Christopher Reeve, who plays Dr Virgil Swann, a
brilliant scientist who helps Clark to receive messages from his
home planet using the Native American symbols that Clark discovered
when he fell into the cave. In 'Visitor', a new student, Cyrus
Krupp (Jeremy Lelliot) reveals to Clark that he is an alien.
'Precipice' sees Clark jumping to Lana's defence when she is almost
assaulted by a college student. He injures the student, causing him
to question the virtue of his powers, and soon finds himself facing
a lawsuit that could cost the Kents their farm. In 'Witness', Clark
tries to intervene after inadvertently witnessing the theft of a
Luthercorp truck, but is dismayed to discover that the thieves are
as strong as he is. In 'Accelerate', Lana asks for Clark's advice
after being visited by the ghost of her childhood friend, Emily
(Jodelle Micah Ferlar). But Clark realises that the little girl is
in fact a kryptonite-enhanced clone who is out to get revenge on
Lana, and wants her to drown just as she, Emily, did several years
before. In 'Calling', Dr Frederick Walden (Rob LaBelle) wakes from
his coma to find himself in possession of incredible powers, and
sets off on a dangerous mission to kill Clark. In 'Exodus', Clark
makes an amazing discovery about his origins when the spaceship
announces that it is programmed with memories of his Kryptonian
father, Jor-El (Terence Stamp). It asks him to come at sunset to
return to his family and friends and fulfil his destiny. But can
Clark leave his life in Smallville behind? 'Redux' sees Clark
coming to the rescue when a mutant, Chrissy (Maggie Lawson), starts
killing young men by sucking their youth out of them to keep
herself young, leaving them aged and lifeless.
The Contemporary Guitar traces the extraordinary rise of the
instrument in concert music over the past century. Though
recognized worldwide as a popular music icon, the all-to-recent
time when the guitar was looked down upon as a second-class citizen
in the world of "serious" music is finally past, and it can now be
found in the scores of the most important composers. The guitar's
rightful place in chamber music, orchestral music, or as a solo
instrument is now without question, whether in the classic acoustic
form or the more recent electric version. While the guitar has
stood in the vanguard of musical experimentation, its many new
techniques and notations remain a mystery for many composers and
players. In The Contemporary Guitar, musician and scholar, John
Schneider explains each class of technique and illustrates them
with examples. Moreover, because the guitar is easily refretted, it
has also become a leading instrument in the exploration of the
relatively new musical language of microtonality. In this revised
and enlarged edition from the original work of three decades ago,
Schneider adds a broad-ranging, entirely new chapter on the
instruments, notation and repertoire with insights into the
interpretation of historical works through the application of
accurate contemporary tunings and temperaments. The guitar's unique
timbre-its tone color-is one of the most versatile among modern
instruments, both acoustic and electric. Most players who
intuitively explore the subtleties of tone color will find outlined
in The Contemporary Guitar the specific principles of physics that
determine these subtleties which, once mastered, permit guitarists
to control more completely the expressive palette of their
instrument. Designated the Rational Method of Tone Production by
its author, Schneider defines in great detail the timbral
characteristics of acoustic and electric instruments from
theoretical, physical, and musical viewpoints. Players in search of
new repertoire will find an historical survey of the literature, an
exhaustive list of new music, and a multitude of techniques for
bringing such music to life. The Contemporary Guitar provides audio
examples online for those seeking to discover new sounds and
includes the notation to perform them.
