Slava-class Cruiser
The ''Slava'' class, Soviet designation Project 1164 ''Atlant'' (), is a class of guided-missile cruisers designed and constructed in the Soviet Union for the Soviet Navy, and currently operated by the Russian Navy. All ships were built and planned to be built at the Shipyard named after 61 Communards in Mykolaiv, Ukrainian SSR. Design and history The design started in the late 1960s, based around use of the P-500 Bazalt missile. The cruiser was intended as a less expensive conventionally powered alternative to the nuclear-powered s. All are now armed with P-1000 Vulkan AShM missiles, developed in the late 1970s to late 1980s. There was a long delay in this programme, while the problems with the Bazalt were resolved.

Slava Music
Blonde Vinyl was an independent record label founded in 1990 by Michael Knott. The ''Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music'' describes the label as "one of Christian music's first true indie labels." Background Blonde Vinyl signed bands with styles that were viable in the underground of the general market but rarely found their way into the Christian market—old school punk, garage rock, grunge, gothic, EBM/industrial, synthpop/house, spoken word, acoustic pop. A gambit in 1991 which saw Blonde Vinyl release 10 albums proved successful for a short period of time, with the company having a major fanbase among Christian teens and 20-somethings. It would release albums for a two year period and carried the caption "New Alternative," which may have also introduced the official use of the word "alternative" to describe a style of music. Blonde Vinyl folded in 1993 when its distributor Spectra Distribution, Inc. went bankrupt after owing Knott a great deal of money. After ba ...

Slava Watches
Slava (, meaning "Glory") watches were classic "civil" Russian watches. The Slava factory (known originally as the Second Moscow Watch Factory) was the second non-military watchmaker established in the Soviet Union, in 1924. The watches of this brand have always been intended for civilian consumption, without military or aerospace pretensions. History In 1919, the Soviet Union bought and imported two watch factories from the USA to start its own watchmaking industry. The first, Moscow's first watchmaking factory, produced Poljot watches. The second, also in Moscow, started production of watches in 1931, which became the Slava brand of watches during the 1950s. Starting in 1985, under the Gorbachev era, the brand manufactured models for the political party. In January 2006, the Slava factory and its site were sold for retail development. By 2010 the factory had been demolished for new real estate projects. The brand has been taken over by the municipality of Moscow in a debt swa ...

Critics generally responded well to the Overture. Paul Hume wrote in ''The Washington Post'': Structure The overture's two main themes are based on "The Grand Old Party" and "Rehearse!" from the failed musical '' 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue'', which ran for only seven performances on Broadway.
