The house: A stained glass window in the hall of the Jacobean Godinton House shows the date 1165, which is believed to be the date that it was first built. The house has since seen renovations (1448 and the early 1600s), transforming it into the red brick manor that attracts tourists to this day. The medieval hall still stands as a testament to the history of Godinton and there are lots of other period features that await visitors including 17th century carved panelling in the Great Chamber, an intricately carved staircase and historical furniture.
The gardens: Designed in 1895 by architect, author and garden designer Sir Reginald Blomfield, outdoor features at Godinton include a rose garden, a walled garden with green houses, and an Italian garden complete with striking statues.
Visiting: House and garden tickets £10, just garden £5. Visit the website for events which include gardening workshops, open air theatre, and lots more. There is a tearoom for house and garden visitors only. The house and tearoom will be open from 5th April to 6th October. Opening times vary throughout the year – check the website before visiting.
• Goodnestone Park Gardens

The Grade II* listed property, originally built with two storeys, and then augmented with a third in 1790, is private and available for rent.
The garden: The tranquil gardens make for a peaceful walk with acres to explore and different types of garden such as the rose garden, a magnificent walled garden and a forest garden. Wander from the rolling parkland to the arboretum, through to the woodland garden and pond. Afterwards, explore the manicured walled garden and nursery.
Visiting: Entry to the garden is £7 for adults. The 2019 open season is 2nd April to 27th September (closed Saturdays and Mondays). Check the website for dates and times. There is a tea room open on garden open days.

The gardens: A mixture of indoor greenhouses, well kept walled gardens and woodland, Quex's Gardens have been lovingly curated since the house's erection in the 15th century. Much was added during the 19th century so the centuries of history are reflected in the various areas. There's a walled kitchen garden, a sunken fountain garden, a Victorian pleasure garden and more.
Visiting: Open Tuesdays through Sundays. The museum and gardens are open January to December 2019 from 10am to 5pm. The house is open from April to October 2019 from 1pm to 4pm. For museum, house and garden, adults £8.95, concessions £6.50 for just gardens, adults £4.95, concessions £3.50.

Artist of the Year: Anselm Kiefer
The Apollo Awards 2014
Apollo Award Winners 2014
Personality | Artist | Museum Opening | Exhibition | Book | Digital Innovation | Acquisition
Back in 2010, I stood before a painting by Anselm Kiefer (b. 1945) at the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and asked a young German artist whether he liked it. 'It's Kiefer,' was the slowly proffered reply – as if liking or disliking had little bearing on one's regard for this artist. We were contemplating Urd Werdande Skuld (The Norns) of 1983, which shows a vast, vaulted passageway receding into an abyss, a fire flickering at its centre. Its title is a reference to the three fates of Norse mythology, and its subject might equally be a Romanesque nave or a gigantic sewer.
And certainly, Kiefer's four-decade career – currently surveyed with powerful succinctness at the Royal Academy of Arts in London (27 September–14 December) – resists ascriptions of 'good' or 'bad' more than that of any other contemporary artist. Like history, memory or mythology – all persistent themes – Kiefer's art is inescapably, implacably there. Thronging with the ghosts of the recent and distant pasts, it evokes a ravaged 'nowhere realm' more akin to the wildernesses of modernist poetry than the neo-expressionist movement in painting with which he is routinely identified. The writings of Paul Celan have, after all, been a lifelong inspiration (phrases from Celan's poems float across Kiefer's twilit mythosphere) – but then so too have ancient myth, alchemy, the philosophy of Ernst Bloch, and the Holocaust.

Even at its most axiomatic, however, Kiefer's work is threaded through by signs of his place in history and art history. He was born in the Black Forest region of southern Germany a few months before the end of the Second World War. He studied under the conceptualist painter Peter Dreher. Cultural and personal introspection and retrospection dovetail inseparably in Kiefer's early work: in the 1970s, alarmed by his country's self-protective amnesia regarding its Nazi past, he made the Occupations series, comprising photographs of himself giving a Nazi salute (illegal in Germany) in different sites around Europe. These mordant tableaux quickly found their way into a delicate, folklorish cycle of drawings and paintings.
If postmodernism in painting can be defined as an emancipation from 'depth', then Kiefer's art is, by contrast, a prising open of wounds. Space dilates in his pictures to giddying effect (many conjure vertiginous aerial panoramas). 'For me, huge doesn't exist,' he was recently quoted as saying, and indeed the scale of his paintings verges repeatedly on the hubristic. The recurrence in his art of the winged figure of Icarus, soaring perilously high, is telling. The paintings' materials, too, stray far beyond paint (and beyond representation), massing into a 'stony rubbish' of clay, plant roots, circuit boards, wire, dirt, and – most prominently – fragments of lead from the roof of Cologne Cathedral, which he acquired in its entirety in 1981. Matching the sprawling scope of his work, his atelier in Paris occupies a former warehouse, while he has established a 200-acre estate-cum-studio in Barjac, southern France.
Yet throughout the artist's corpus, grandiosity repeatedly slides into something more desultory: towards the end of the Royal Academy's current exhibition is a cycle of works studded with diamonds that manage to seem like upturned slabs of pavement embedded with sparkling mica. Kiefer's sculptures meanwhile consistently evoke the burnt-out remnants of expired civilisations. For his 2010 exhibition 'Next Year In Jerusalem' at Gagosian Gallery in New York, he amassed 25 vitrines (some towering as high as 20 feet) packed with desiccated trees, books and model warships. There was a strange and irresolvable tension between these parched reliquaries and the abundant cultural allusions packed into their titles – Dornröschen (Sleeping Beauty), Ararat, Fitzcarraldo.
Collectively, Kiefer's monumental scenes and assemblages – combined with his sketchbooks and smaller vignettes – irradiate the here and now of the artist's existence with the sweeping universalism of myth. The sculpture Ages of the World (Die Erdzeitalter), made this year and installed in the Royal Academy's central chamber, nicely allegorises the artist's tendency to collapse time and memory: used canvases such as might litter his studio are stacked into a teetering tower of Babel, sprouting giant poppy heads. Here as so often, Kiefer's art shares hell's expansive timelessness. The past refuses to fall into discrete chapters and neat moral exempla, but rather encroaches on the present with the insistence of an unwanted revenant. No wonder mere questions of 'quality' are beside the point.

South Florida Airbnb hosts cash in on Super Bowl LIV
Across Miami-Dade and Broward, Airbnb expects more than 70K guest arrivals this week
Jan.January 30, 2020 12:34 PM
By Francisco Alvarado
Airbnb operators cash In On Super Bowl LIV
South Florida Airbnb operators are cashing in on Super Bowl LIV.
This weekend, new, modern mansions on the Venetian Islands are advertised on Airbnb for $5,000 to $10,000 a night. A five-bedroom villa with a heated pool near Miami's Brickell neighborhood is asking $4,600 a night.
Nearly 84 percent of all Airbnb listings are booked between now and Sunday, the day of the big game, with hosts expecting more than 70,000 guest arrivals in Miami-Dade and Broward counties, according to Airbnb spokesperson Samuel Randall. Hosts will earn a combined $26.4 million in short-term rental income during Super Bowl LIV week, Randall added.
During Miami's high winter season, Sebastian Giraldo usually lists a night's stay at a three-bedroom villa near Brickell on Airbnb for $308. For Super Bowl LIV week, Giraldo is asking five times the rate, or roughly $1,600 a night.
He says his price is comparable to rates for neighboring single-family homes listed on Airbnb, VRBO and Booking.com, the websites and applications used by his short-term real rental, investment and property management company, Stratton Hospitality.
"We do a complete market study of the surrounding properties to arrive at the right price," Giraldo said. "We are very confident we will get last-minute bookings."
In the run-up to Super Bowl LIV week, Airbnb executives cautioned hosts not to get overzealous in pricing short-term rentals.
However, a search on the short-term rental site reveals other Airbnb operators are hoping to capitalize on high demand for accommodations generated by the more than 200,000 people descending on Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties for Super Bowl LIV and the satellite entertainment events accompanying the big game.
In Miami Gardens, home to Hard Rock Stadium, the site of Super Bowl LIV, more than half a dozen single-family homes and townhouses are listed for $1,000 to $4,500 a night.
Daily rates for luxury condominiums throughout Miami-Dade, including downtown Miami, Brickell, Edgewater and Miami Beach range from $100 to more than $1,000.
At a workshop earlier this month, Ben Breit, Airbnb's head of trust and safety communications, advised more than two dozen hosts that exorbitant rate increases would likely mean their properties would not get rented.
"Where we see hosts get hurt is when they multiply prices by 20," Breit said at the time. "Those people don't get booked. If you want to raise prices, that is your call. But I encourage you to be careful. Don't go too crazy." Randall said Miami-Dade hosts' average daily rate stands at $180 for the week of Jan. 27 to Feb. 3. In Broward, the average daily rate is $127.
Giraldo said his company has been able to lease 15 out of 35 properties it owns and manages for Super Bowl LIV. He noted some of the Airbnb guests arrived earlier this month and will be here until after the game. "One of them is organizing a few events for Super Bowl," he said. "She was getting tons of packages delivered to the front door."
Giraldo also said short-term rentals remain a much more affordable option than staying in a hotel. "If you compare Airbnb and hotels side-by-side, you are looking at about a 20 percent to 50 percent discount," he said. "The hotels have priced their rooms so much higher."

In addition Councilmembers asked staff to draft a policy instructing the Alameda Police Department (APD) to refuse to honor any request by the Trump administration to use any APD resources to participate in mass arrests or internments mandated by Trump. Staff also drafted a policy instructing all city departments to refuse to honor any request from the Trump administration to register individuals based on their religious beliefs.
In addition staff drew up a resolution that reaffirmed the city's commitment to LGBTQ rights, religious freedoms and racial, social, and economic justice, as well as the city's assurance that it would adhere to the values of inclusivity, respect and dignity.
Once in office, Trump directed his administration to implement a policy that requires city managers of cities receiving federal grant money to sign Certifications of Compliance from the Department of Justice. These documents would certify that their cities would not restrict sending or receiving information regarding citizenship or immigration status.
Alameda was the first city in Alameda County that did not agree to sign this certification. Both the state of California and the City and County of San Francisco filed suit over the required signatures.
If the court decides in favor of the state and San Francisco, Alameda may be able to receive these grant funds in the future.
Now, in order for the city to apply for the Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) from the U.S. Department of Justice, the Trump administration is requiring the city to sign a Certification of Compliance, something it has already refused to do.
"This requirement does not meet the intent of the city's sanctuary city resolution. As a result City Manager Jill Keimach and City Attorney Janet Kern, with concurrence from the Police Chief Paul Rolleri will not sign such certification," the city stated in a press release.
The City of Alameda's annual budget for services such as police, fire, parks, roads and sidewalks is $249 million. Each year, millions of the city's budget dollars come from grant funding. For the last 10 years, one source of the city's grant funding has been the JAG grant, with awards ranging from $32,139 in 2007 to $12,352 in 2016. This year, Alameda's JAG funding was estimated have been $11,537.


Does anyone have photos of the interiors of the West of Hudson RDCs used by mnr/njt in the 80s and 90s?
I'm sure one of the members of the group can chime in with more about where on MNRR this one ran, but this is the interior of Conway Scenic RDC #23, which according to a short history provided for a 2013 Boston and Maine RR Historical Society flyer, this was #18 on MNRR. Not sure if it was WOH though.

With the advancement of age, the human skin produces less collagen. Less collagen causes the skin to lose its elasticity, tightness and strength. This results in the development of wrinkles, sagging of the skin and a hollow facial appearance. Although such conditions were incurable in the past, improvements in technology and the development of modern treatment procedures have made it easy and simple to rectify such conditions. Sculptra in Beverly Hills is now easily accessible, and it's readily available right here at our office in Santa Monica.

Pope considers allowing married men to be ordained as priests
Will Metcalfe
Yahoo News UK 17 June 2019
Pope Francis is considering allowing married men to become ordained as priest in the Amazon (AP Photo/Gregorio Borgia)
The Vatican has formally opened debate on letting married men be ordained as priests in remote parts of the Amazon where priests are so few that Catholics can go weeks or months without attending a Mass.
The call for study on the proposal was contained in the working document, released on Monday, for an October meeting of South American bishops on the Amazon.
The document, prepared by the Vatican based on input from the region, affirmed that celibacy is a gift for the Catholic Church.
But it suggested officials study "the possibility of priestly ordination for older men, preferably indigenous and respected and accepted by their communities, even if they have stable families, for the region's most remote areas".

The idea of ordaining so-called "viri probati" - married men of proven virtue - has been around for decades to cope with a priest shortage and decline in vocations overall.
But it has drawn fresh attention under Pope Francis, history's first Latin American pope, thanks to his familiarity with the challenges facing the Amazon church.
The October 6-27 meeting on the sacramental and environmental needs of the Amazon will draw bishops from Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname and Venezuela.
Brazil's bishops have long pushed for the church to consider ordaining viri probati to minister in remote parts of the Amazon where by some estimates there is one priest for every 10,000 Catholics.
It's believed the move may only apply to older men. (AP Photo/Gregorio Borgia)
The celibacy question has been a mainstay in Catholic debate given it is a discipline, not a doctrine, and therefore can change.
The church has had the tradition since the 11th century, imposed in part to spare the church the financial burdens of providing for large families and to ensure that any assets of the priest would pass to the church, not his heirs.
Proponents of a relaxation of the rule say more men would consider a vocation to the priesthood if they could marry, a surefire fix to the decline in priests globally.
Opponents say relaxing the rule for the Amazon will certainly fuel calls for it to be relaxed elsewhere.

Already, married men can be ordained in the Eastern rite Catholic Church and married men who convert from Protestant churches can be Catholic priests.
In addition to ordaining married men, the document called for the synod to identify "the type of official ministry that can be conferred on women".
It said women, who already play important roles in indigenous communities, must be guaranteed leadership roles.
But it stopped short of recommending debate on whether women could be ordained as deacons.
One of the organisers, Monsignor Fabio Fabene, said the female diaconate was essentially off the table since Francis has recently determined that the issue needs further discussion.

Amy has focused on employment and civil rights law from the time she began practicing in 1999. Before dedicating herself to helping individuals, she gained valuable experience working for a large national law firm in its employment law section. This experience has been critical in forming her dynamic approach to pursing the rights of individuals because she has first-hand knowledge of how companies and public institutions function.
Amy knows it takes courage to take on an employer or large institution. She goes to great lengths to help her clients understand what to expect throughout the legal process. She will not try to force her clients to make uncomfortable decisions. She knows her cases are not about her, but instead are about her clients and making positive change in the places we spend much our lives—work and school. With a keen understanding that corporate employers and public institutions usually have the size and muscle to push individuals to feel as though there is little chance for success, Amy will not back down. She works tirelessly to protect and empower her clients through difficult conflicts and come out on the side of justice and against bullies. Her skill and fortitude are evident in the results she has achieved for her clients in jury trials, the appellate courts, and in settlement negotiations.
Amy grew up in Atlanta and spent much of her life in the Midwest, where many of her relatives lived. She was the first in her family to attend college. She was lucky to be a good student, but she was even more fortunate to be in an environment where it wasn't enough just to be smart. Instead, she had to use her abilities for practical problem-solving to gain the respect of a family who had to earn every penny they had.

Album Recap: 2021 Edition
Baxter Roberts, Staff Writer|October 11, 2021
Courtesy: Vogue
Billie Eilish poses for a recent photoshoot with Vogue as part of her album rollout of "Happier Than Ever". The artist has started this decade off with a bang sure to have a lasting impact.
2021 has been an extremely fruitful year for music. Some of the biggest artists across several genres have put out exciting albums throughout the months. Unfortunately, audiences often suffer from recency bias, meaning they tend to forget about albums dropped earlier in the year. Consequently, my look back at 2021's best albums includes works from throughout the year.
5. "Happier Than Ever"
Starting off this list is Billie Eilish's "Happier Than Ever." Compared to Eilish's debut album, "When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?," "Happier Than Ever" represents a massive tonal shift. Her move away from dark and depressive beats and lyrics to more airy, albeit still melancholic, ideas has left some critics scratching their heads. However, I personally love this shift. Modern artists often focus on one style and never deviate, which makes their music stale. Eilish's movement from one sound to another signals a welcome change in her music and proves that Eilish isn't sonically limited to one genre. The only reason this entry isn't higher on the list is that the songs tend to get repetitive.
Best song: "Happier Than Ever"
Most underrated: "Halley's Comet"
4. "Montero"
This album is the ultimate clapback to those who thought Lil Nas X was bound to be a one-hit wonder. As his first full-length studio album, "Montero" feels like a victory lap: it lets Lil Nas X prove that his creativity goes beyond just one song with multiple remixes. The true genius of this work isn't the pounding victory, it's the vulnerability. Songs such as "Dead Right Now" and "Lost in the Citadel" give listeners an intimate view of all the anxiety and pain the musician faces. This intimacy connects him to the audience and makes the album a near masterpiece. Combined with Lil Nas X's provocative marketing, this album is here to stay.
Best song: "INDUSTRY BABY"
Most underrated song: "LOST IN THE CITADEL"
3. "Sour"
Olivia Rodrigo's breakout album "Sour" is chock-full of 2021 anthems. Smash hits "Drivers License" and "Good 4 U" are powerful breakup songs that have resonated with audiences everywhere, and "Sour" also calls back to the early 2000's post-pop-punk era. In songs such as "Brutal," Rodrigo expresses her anger at society; in songs like "Traitor," she reveals her more emotional side with lyrics about pressure affecting her life. Although towards the end of the album, the songs begin to get repetitive, "Sour" still gives Rodrigo an amazing jumping off point for future releases.
Best song: "Good 4 U"
Most underrated song: "Traitor"
2. "Call Me If You Get Lost"
Tyler, The Creator is back and as powerful as ever. Coming off his critically acclaimed album "Igor," expectations were high for this release, and "Call Me If You Get Lost" doesn't disappoint. This album follows a similar theme of unrequited love and failed romances, but it doesn't singularly follow these themes. His main idea is about his feeling of being, well, lost. Lyrics about money, clothes, cars and things develop the idea that Tyler just wants happiness, but it keeps evading him. Sonically diverse and lyrically deep, "Call Me If You Get Lost" is a benchmark for future Tyler releases.
Best song: "WUSYANAME"
Most underrated song: "LEMONHEAD"
1. "Donda"
The number one spot goes to Kanye West. After a five year drought of full-length Kayne projects, "DONDA" demonstrates Kanye's ability to create a project with a dynamic sonic theme. This album is about the death of Kanye's mother, Donda West, and the pain and suffering that Kanye subsequently dealt with. The album's lyrics focus on devotion to God and changing for the better. "DONDA" also boasts a star-studded cast, including Jay-Z, Travis Scott and Playboi Carti. As the most sonically diverse and lyrically creative work of 2021, "DONDA" is undoubtedly the best album of this year.
Best song: "Off the Grid"
Most underrated song: "Keep My Spirit Alive"

Q: Dabbles in cooking? I want to say someone dabbles in cooking - is it correct? -is there a better (fancy) way to say it? (this intends to add bit of humor too)

A: If you want to add a bit of wry humor, you might try a pun.  I can't think of a good pun for the verb, but you might try an adjective with a double meaning:

He is an unseasoned cook.

From the dictionary:

unseasoned (adj.)
  1. (of food) not flavored with salt, pepper, or other spices or seasonings.
  2. (of a person) inexperienced.

A: Dabble in means "to be involved in something in a casual manner." So, yes you can say your boyfriend dabbles in cooking.
You could also say he plays at cooking. Play at means "to do something without being very serious about it." {definition of "play at"}

A: Maybe "He's a cooking dilettante"? Wiktionary gives us:

*

*An amateur, someone who dabbles in a field out of casual interest rather than as a profession or serious interest.

*A person with a general but superficial interest in any art or a branch of knowledge. (Sometimes derogatory.)

A: If you want to add some humor, you can say:

He thinks he can cook.

Celebrating transgressive celebrity
9th June 2016 7th June 2016
Victoria Duckett is a film historian and Director of the Bachelor in Entertainment Production at Deakin University, Melbourne. She has published extensively in the areas of performance, gender, and film history. She is on the editorial board of Nineteenth Century Theatre and Film and Feminist Media Histories. She is coeditor of the special dossier "Women and the Silent Screen" (Screening the Past, 2015), "Archives and Archivists" (Feminist Media Histories, 2016), and coeditor of Researching Women in Silent Film: New Findings and Perspectives (University of Bologna, 2013). Her book Seeing Sarah Bernhardt: Performance and Silent Film (2015) was recently published by the University of Illinois Press.
Sarah Bernhardt (born Sara-Marie-Henriette Bernard, 1844-1923) was the most famous actress of the late nineteenth century. Celebrated for her golden voice, for her use of the spiral as the building block for movement on the theatrical stage, for an innovative use of costume and jewellery, for her patronage emerging artists, and for the business acumen that saw her fast become a household name across the globe, she was the progenitor of celebrity as we know it today. Performing in her native French across Europe, North America, and as far afield as South America and Australia, Bernhardt was feted by audiences for over half a century. Her fame was both international and intergenerational. Today, a growing number of exhibitions, catalogues, and books attest to her continuing renown. As Robert Gottlieb reminds us, "[Bernhardt's] name remains the paradigm for "Great Actress"…She is still the most famous of all Frenchwomen after Joan of Arc and the most famous French personality of the nineteenth century after Napoléon." [1]
But is she dangerous?
A photograph commonly used to personify Bernhardt shows her in a medium close up [Figure 1]. She is looking calmly off into the distance against an unadorned backdrop. Her hair is a short mane of thick dark curls. Her shoulders are exposed in a wrap of material folding busily around her plunging neck and collarbone. Her face rests languidly on her right hand.
There are at least three of these images, each slightly different (in placement, in costume). All were taken by Félix Nadar in his studio in Paris, circa 1860. Was Bernhardt, at the age of about 16, already famous in France? No. This is a photograph of the illegitimate daughter of Youle van Hard, a Dutch Jew who ran a modest salon as a courtesan in Paris. Bernhardt is the child of a nineteenth century demi-mondaine, a youth whose favours were gained through patronage and prostitution. Indeed, in 1859 it is the Duc de Morny (the illegitimate half brother of Emperor Napoleon III and a client of her mother's) who procures Bernhardt entrance to the prestigious and premier acting school in France, the Conservatoire.
An outsider to respectable middle class values, entering a profession that was associated with loose morals, Bernhardt is a marginal figure in a rigid and class-bound world. Is she photographed by Nadar for her youth and beauty? Or is she photographed for her mother's renown? As Carol Ockman states, "We can easily imagine the loosely wrapped drapery coming undone, making literal the sexual availability of the model and would-be actress." [2] Bernhardt is sexually available, perhaps, but still wilful and hardly demure: she leaves the Comédie Française, the most prestigious theatre in France, after just 8 months of residence in 1862. Departing on the heels of a dispute with a senior sociétare, Bernhardt's departure is "the first publicity coup of her career." Overnight, she is an object of interest in Paris. [3]
Her unusual action is remarkable because it unsettles hierarchies. This young woman is not bound by protocol or convention. She is transgressive. She is even shocking: in 1864, Bernhardt gives birth to an illegitimate son (Maurice Bernhardt) in Spain. Maurice's birth occurs soon after these portraits are taken.
Five years later, in 1869 (at the age of 25), Bernhardt enjoys her first success in the travesti role of Zanetto–the wandering Florentine minstrel–in François Coppée's Le Passant. Performing at the Odéon theatre, Bernhardt draws to her the students, artisans and workers of the left bank. These audience members are vocal in support of the actress. They are attracted to her voice, a voice that sang Coppée's verse like "a strange music." [4] They also like her masculine costume, fashioned on Paul Dubois's statue, A Fifteenth Century Florentine Singer. [Figure 2] Attendant audiences knew that Bernhardt dressed in a style that recalls a statue that had won a medal at the Salon of 1865 and that is installed in the Musée du Luxembourg (where the leading collection of modern painting and sculpture in Paris is housed), and is mass produced in in bronze and porcelain by the Barbedienne foundry and the Manufacture de Sèvres.
In 1869, at the age of 25, Bernhardt is consequently an emblem of youth fashioning her appearance on a modern art work that was industrially reproduced. She is supported by youths who yell themselves hoarse during her performances. Les Saradoteurs, as this audience is called, are a new presence in the established theatre, behaving in new ways in the theatre (they yell, they scream, they stomp and clap). Les Saradoteurs see Bernhardt as their beacon.
Is Bernhardt dangerous? Yes. She is a social, artistic, and political leader. She is a young actress who motivates change. Later, she plays Lorenzaccio in Alfred de Musset's Lorenzaccio (in 1896), Hamlet in her newly commissioned translation of Hamlet (Marcel Schwob and Eugène Morand, 1899), and is the Eaglet in Edmond Rostand's L'Aiglon (1901). Demanding male roles she laments the lack of intelligent roles for women on the stage. [5] Sword in hand, Bernhardt makes ghosts of tradition, convention and protocol.
In 1872 Bernhardt is instead the Spanish Queen in Victor Hugo's Ruy Blas. The theatre had been converted into a makeshift hospital during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. Ruy Blas is the work that opens the Odéon theatre after its closure, linking Bernhardt to the theme of social reform. Perhaps more importantly, Ruy Blas inaugurates comments about Bernhardt's physical gestures and actions on the stage. "When she rises, when she makes a half turn, when she exits, the long folds of her silver spangled dress arrange themselves around her with poetic grace," writes Francisque Sarcey in his weekly "Chronique Théatrale" in Le Temps. [6] Today we associate art nouveau with material objects, overlooking the impact that Bernhardt made when she introduces her turning torso as the principle for action on the stage.
Well before Hector Guimard's entrances to the Paris Métro, the furniture shops of Louis Majorelle, the art objects and interior design of Siegfried Bing's eponymous Maison de l'Art Nouveau, the 'pliant, tangled-root lines' of Loie Fuller's dance or even the typographic 'AB' of the Biograph film company's trademark, [7] [Fig. 3] Bernhardt is using the spiral as a physical principle in movement on stage. Turning her back on audiences and challenging theatrical tradition which asked that actors did not do this, she makes the female body an active motif, the founding principle, for what we today identify as art nouveau. Is Bernhardt dangerous? Yes. Merely by moving, she makes her body an impetus for artistic and social change.
Malleable and moving, we cannot pin her down. She is again a royal subject in Phèdre in 1874, in Hernani in 1877. In 1880, however, fresh on the heels of her second and final departure from the Comédie Française, she chooses to play Marguerite, the 16 year old courtesan of Dumas fils's La Dame aux Camélias. A woman who threatens established conventions by leaving the premier theatre company in France launches herself across America in a role that challenges middle class mores. One commentator describes the play as a "moral monstrosity." [8] Bernhardt takes the role to England the following year, the first actress to perform La Dame aux Camélias on the English stage.
Transgressive in her choice of role, Bernhardt plays the part in a new and (literally) remarkable way. In the climatic death scene, where Marguerite dies of consumption in her lover's arms, Bernhardt dies standing, pivoting to the floor. At its opening in London, The Times comments:
…Mdlle. Bernhardt introduces a curious novelty. She dies standing. Madame Doche, whose name is identified with the part of Marguerite, was accustomed to sink down upon a couch and die holding her lover's hand, but Mdlle. Bernhardt remains standing till the last, and falls forward upon the bosom of her lover, who, with a cry of alarm, lays her down straight and stiff upon the floor. It may be presumed that Mdlle. Bernhardt has fortified herself with some physiological authority for this unusual action. [9]
Bernhardt plays this 16 year old courtesan in her 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, she brings La Dame aux Camélias to new and expanding audiences. When Bernhardt suffers from the pain that will later see her right leg amputated in 1915, she performs this role as a single Act on the Vaudeville stage in North America and on the Music Hall stage in England. Indeed, by 1910 she performs her plays in pieces, presenting the famous death scene of La Dame aux Camélias as fragment among other famous fragments on stage. Is Bernhardt dangerous? Yes, because she refuses invisibility in old age, and disability. Yes, because even when she could no longer walk freely, she changed the context and content of a play so that she could continue to spiral to her death.
Bernhardt adapts her physical performances so that she remains public and visible. A canny businesswoman, she is already circulating through photographs, posters and the phonograph. In 1900 she is also among the first celebrities be filmed, forming part of Paul Decauville's program for the Phono-Cinéma-Théâtre at the Paris Exposition [Fig. 4]. Playing Hamlet in a one-minute extract that pictures Hamlet's death [Fig 5], she is the first woman to appear in cross dress on film, the first woman to die on film, the first woman to commission her own role on film, the first woman to perform sport (a fencing match) on film. Is Bernhardt dangerous? Yes, because she constantly acquires new audiences and conquers new media. Yes, because she makes herself available through images and recordings to people whom she will never know. Through film, she conquers the world in new ways.
Film allows Bernhardt to be seen in some of her most famous roles–in La Tosca (1908), La Dame aux Camélias (1911), and Adrienne Lecouvreur (1913). These are made when Bernhardt is in her 60s and unable to travel as she once did. They are longer narrative works shot when Bernhardt was appearing in single acts on stage. They also introduce new achievements to us–Les Amours de la Reine Élisabeth (1912) helps to open the market for legitimate motion picture theatre exhibition in the US. [Fig. 6, Fig. 7] Sarah Bernhardt Intime (1915) is an early home movie that shows Bernhardt writing and sculpting. [Fig. 8] Jeanne Doré (1916) explores the impact of gambling addiction on family and youth. Mères Française (1917) is a propaganda film that allows Bernhardt to promote the Allied cause in America. There is also Greetings from Madame Sarah Bernhardt (1920), Madame Sarah in "Daniel (1920), and La Voyante (1923). [10]
Is Bernhardt dangerous on film? Yes, because Nadar's anonymous model is now a mature woman who materially changes the production of culture. Is Bernhardt a "Great Actress"? Is she second only to Napoléon's personality in the nineteenth century? Bernhardt is far more than that. Modern celebrity was inaugurated by a woman who clearly transgresses even contemporary definitions of "female achievement".

Very nice place. The room was a bit smaller than I expected, in fact it was a lot smaller than I expected, but it was clean and neat and comfortable. I was lucky enough to snag one of the handful of parking spots behind the hotel. The area was OK, not completely unexpected for being in the Bronx.

It is you whom I invoke, O Lord. In the morning you hear me; in the morning I offer you my prayer, watching and waiting.
It was a scene right out of some 1950s movie: four women from two countries in their pajamas sitting cross-legged on the floor of a dorm, having one of those midnight philosophical conversations you're supposed to have in college. Except these women were not students, but professors – of chemistry, English, and of course, philosophy.
I had given a talk that morning at this retreat for faculty on contemplative practices. I told the 80-odd professors that I had prepared for that first talk of the day by taking my breviary and cup of tea to an overgrown garden behind the dorm. I prayed morning prayer.
In my talk, I had quoted one of the two psalms set out for that hour: Mercy and faithfulness have met; justice and peace have embraced. "What is the rest of it?" wondered the English professor. So I fetched my breviary, opened it and invited three contemplatives from very different traditions to explore the treasures of my tradition, to enter my monastery without walls, the holy space I had lived in for more than 25 years.
I discovered the Liturgy of the Hours when my first husband entered the Church. A friend had suggested he read convert and monk Thomas Merton's autobiography, "The Seven Storey Mountain." In it, Merton writes of his discovery of the Hours, which eventually led him to enter the Trappists, to let his life be enveloped entirely in the cycle of psalms that anchors the Office. The Trappists were certainly not my calling, but I was drawn to this practice that could, in this small way, consecrate my days, and bind me more firmly to the Church. I found a breviary and began.
Like Merton, the breviary was tough for me to navigate at first, and in the bustle of a move 3,000 miles to the East, I set it aside. A few months later, settled in our new parish, Tom and I signed up for an hour a week of Perpetual Adoration. I brought the breviary along and in the quiet night hours, sitting with Christ before me, unworried about doing it exactly right, I slowly unraveled its mysteries.
My patience this time was richly rewarded. It was like opening a door into another place, or as the psalmist sings later in Psalm 5: "I through the greatness of your love have access to your house." The psalms slowly traced their pattern onto my days, gracing the dawn with joyful praise, offering a breath midday. Soon, Morning Prayer was as indispensable a part of my day as my first cup of tea. One woke me physically, the other woke me to the presence of God.
I discovered that I did not need sacred space to pray the Hours; this round of prayer creates sacred space. The Celtic tradition speaks of "thin places," places were God seems particularly near. The Liturgy of the Hours is a bit like fine sandpaper in this respect. It gently rubs away at what separates us from God, making even the most mundane of spaces thin – and so, sacred.
Each time the new liturgical year begins, I open my breviary to see Pope Paul VI's warm invitation to join in this eternal cycle of prayer, to make whatever place and time I find myself in sacred. As we begin this year, I invite you join me in applying some prayerful sandpaper and making a thin place for yourself – and God.
Father, creator of unfailing light, give that same light to those who call to you. May our lips praise You; our lives proclaim Your goodness; our work give You honor, and our voice celebrate You for ever. Amen.
– Prayer after the psalm, Morning Prayer, Sunday of Week I.

Doctor offers to trade vasectomy for playoff tickets
A Colorado doctor has an unusual offer for anyone with extra tickets to Sunday's AFC Championship Game between the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots: a free vasectomy.
Doctor offers to trade vasectomy for playoff tickets A Colorado doctor has an unusual offer for anyone with extra tickets to Sunday's AFC Championship Game between the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots: a free vasectomy. Check out this story on USATODAY.com: http://usat.ly/1je6kz0

Dr. Steven Broman is Broncos season-ticket holder
He's hoping to score extra tickets for his staff
He made similar offer for 2006 game versus Steelers
FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- A Colorado doctor has an unusual offer for anyone with extra tickets to Sunday's AFC Championship Game between the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots: a free vasectomy.
Dr. Steven Broman of Fort Collins is offering to perform the $1,000-plus surgery in return for tickets. A long-time season-ticket holder, Broman and his family will be at Sunday's game anyway. The extra tickets, he said, would go to his staff.
"The only people who wouldn't have to pay me in tickets is Tom Brady, but I'd have to do the operation before the game," Broman said, laughing.
This isn't the first time Broman has made such an offer. He made a similar one in 2006 when the Broncos played the Pittsburgh Steelers. That year, he said, he came close to making a deal.
"I had a guy who was ready to pull the trigger, but he said he had only one ticket, so I offered to only do one side," Broman said. "He didn't think that was very funny."
Broman said he can perform a vasectomy in his office as an outpatient procedure, and recovery takes about 48 hours.
And if the Broncos win Sunday -- Broman is confident -- he's making a similar offer for Super Bowl tickets.
"I'd be happy to score some Super Bowl tickets," he said.

The governor of California Gavin Newsom supported the development of blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI)-based products in his "State of the State" speech, local news outlet CALmatters reported on Feb. 12.
Newsom is known for his proactive approach to developing technologies and digital currency. He reportedly brought crypto onto the party political scene as early as 2014, when he became one of the first high-profile politicians to accept campaign donations in Bitcoin (BTC). In November 2018, Newsom sealed 59 percent of the electorate's support to defeat the Republican Party's John Cox in the midterm gubernatorial elections.
As Cointelegraph recently reported, 89 percent of consumers purportedly believe that corporations do not do enough to protect their data; over half of all CEOs and C-suite executives admit that most consumers are right to doubt them on this. Blockchain, however, ostensibly ensures that the data related to digital ID is manageable.

Home London Travel Guide Buckingham Palace: A complete tourist's guide
Buckingham Palace: A complete tourist's guide
Few tourist attractions in London carry as much history and prestige as Buckingham Palace, the Royal Family's main London residence. Whether you just want to get a picture of the front while imagining Queenie inside drinking her 10am gin and tonic, or if you want to explore the incredible Staterooms, you'll want to take a look at our extensive guide below.
There's no way you'll be able to enjoy the delights Buckingham Palace has to offer without getting there in the first place. There are a number of Underground stations in the vicinity that allow for a quick and simple journey to the palace. The best option is perhaps Green Park – the walk through verdant and emerald surroundings is thoroughly pleasant. Simply emerge from the exit, cross the road if necessary and continue straight on into the park. The palace is straight ahead.
A slightly longer – but no less pleasant – option is Hyde Park Corner, which once again takes you through grassy surrounds on a trip to the palace. While you can't quite see the building from the exit of the Tube station, there are only three paths available to you and the Palace is clearly signposted. The walk should take no more than 15 minutes.
Another option is to travel to London Victoria. Emerge from the station opposite the Shakespeare pub, cross over the road and turn the corner opposite Grosvenor Square. Continue right and walk past the Rubens at the Palace Hotel (instantly identifiable thanks to its living wall) until you reach a crossroads. Turn left and proceed through the gate to find Buckingham Palace. London Victoria is the best connected of all the stations with access to various Underground lines, national rail services and even coaches that depart for destinations across the country. On the flipside, however, the Tube station is currently undergoing refurbishment (due for completion in 2018) and it becomes absolutely chaotic during busy periods. If you require easier access, opt for Green Park or Hotel Near Hyde Park Corner.
Worthwhile attractions
When it comes to actually exploring the palace, it's worth considering the plethora of options available. The State Rooms are open for tours during both the summer and the winter, although numbers are dramatically reduced in the cooler months. This being England, that's from October all the way through until May. So you'll need to check the list of selected dates on the Palace website if you're interested in visiting during this time.
Choose the attraction you want to visit. Do you fancy a look inside the State Rooms? Or would you rather take a trip along the nearby Royal Mews? The Queen's Gallery is another worthwhile attraction, as is the legendary Clarence House, a royal residence situated a stone's throw away from the Palace on the Mall. The last of these is only open during the month of August, however, when much of the Royal Family is up in Scotland.
It's also worth seeing if you can gain access to the Royal Residence's gardens (and we don't mean by scaling the walls – that sort of thing will get you locked up). They are particularly pleasant during the warmer months and you never know – you might even spy the Queen's corgis (Willow and Holly) and dorgis (Candy and Vulcan) being walked.
Ticket prices for these attractions vary depending on the time of year but particular enthusiasts will find that a so-called 'group' ticket will allow them access to several of them. It's probably worthwhile if you intend to visit more than one royal attraction during your stay.
Another great activity is the Changing of the Guard, which takes place on certain days every month and allows visitors to watch a fantastic display from the crimson-clad furry-headed guardsmen that are so iconic. On the days that the performance takes place, the fun usually kicks off at 11:15, with the guards and bands arriving for the official start time of 11:30. It's all finished by 12 noon.
Buckingham Palace is great for children and there are plenty of family activities during the UK half-term periods taking place at the prestigious venue. Ever fancied going on an Easter egg hunt at the Royal Mews? This is just one example – check the website for details about the exciting programme of events for 2015.
Tours around the various royal venues always include plenty for the children to do, with tour guides asking them if they can spot the secret entrance from the State Rooms that leads straight to the Queen's quarters. They will no doubt love learning about the intricacies and eccentricities of Britain's fascinating Royal family, demonstrated in an exciting and engaging way. They'll ask questions all the way home – count on it.
Nearby attractions to Buckingham Palace
There is no shortage of exciting things to do near Buckingham Palace. The long road that stretches directly in front of the main gates is called the Mall and it leads directly into Trafalgar Square, the Strand and the glittering West End of London. Whether you're looking for an evening at the theatre, a bite to eat or perhaps even to attend a festival, this is definitely the place to be. Wander up to Piccadilly and experience high-end shopping on Regent Street, Carnaby Street or Oxford Street. Seek out the British Museum and gaze upon the many artefacts accumulated by the nation during its incredible stint as the most powerful empire in the world.
If it's cinema near Buckingham Palace that you're after, there are a number of venues in Leicester Square where films usually have their UK premieres. Otherwise, there's a conveniently-located Curzon in Victoria where you can settle down with the locals amongst the popcorn and fizzy drinks. Speaking of Victoria, the area is home to two of the most popular West End shows – Broadway import Wicked with its belting anthems and mindblowing glitz and glamour, or Billy Elliot with its heart-melting story and super-talented young lead actors.

As a long-time data miner, and the author of Data Mining for Dummies, these statements really rubbed me the wrong way. Data mining is merely a form of data analysis. It's an adaptation of statistical analysis designed to enable non-statisticians to analyze data in a quick and informal way. As with many other things in life, what you get out of it depends on what you put into it: it's all about the raw material, the data itself.
And there's the real key to privacy. The central privacy issue is not data mining, nor any other form of analysis. It's what data is collected, how it's used and shared and used again.
Cook has not ignored the matter of data collection, speaking out strongly in favor of private data encryption. But, as Stuart Dredge pointed out in The Guardian, he's not saying much about Apple's own role in collection and use of user data. Apple collects a lot of data about its users, and acts as a conduit for app developers and others who do the same.
So what is data mining? It's statistics. In fact, it's watered down statistics. If you took a college statistics class, you already have a general idea of what data mining can and can't do. Data miners may have access to a wider range of analysis techniques than you encountered in Statistics 101, and nicer software to use, but they don't have magic wands or x-ray vision for data. Data miners can only discover the facts written in the data, and some days, not even that.
If we're talking about privacy, let's talk about privacy, and be realistic about it. Data privacy centers on data collection and sharing, not data mining.

Analysis of reference gene stability can be performed with tools such as geNorm or qbase+ software (https://www.biogazelle.com/). The reference genes should have stable mRNA expression and the amount of reference gene mRNA should be strongly correlated with the total amounts of mRNA in the samples. When using this method, it is critical that the reference genes used do not vary with experimental conditions.
Normalized data is reported as a ratio of the mRNA concentration of the gene of interest to the mRNA concentration of the reference gene. This can be calculated by a comparative Cq method or a standard curve method. For recommendations on this topic, contact us.

How do I choose an internal control target for normalizing qPCR results?
We recommend that you test at least two, but preferably three, normalizing or housekeeping genes to help to ensure the reliability of internal controls. The ideal normalizing gene to use will depend on the species and conditions of the sample you will be testing. If you are unsure which normalizing gene to use, review the literature for the genes tested on samples with conditions similar to yours.
When normalizing to a reference gene, it is very important that the reference gene is experimentally substantiated to help to ensure that it is a reliable measure against which to compare all other sample variations. A pilot study can be conducted to select the best set of reference genes out of a series of candidates.

[DIODORUS] 'It is said then that the men who dwelled of old in Egypt when they looked up to the cosmos, and were struck with astonishment and admiration at the nature of the universe, supposed that the sun and moon were two eternal and primal gods, one of whom they named Osiris, and the other Isis, each name being applied from some true etymology.
[PORPHYRY] 'It is probably an incalculable time since, as Theophrastus says, the most learned race of mankind, inhabiting that most sacred land which Nilus founded, were the first to begin to offer upon the hearth to the heavenly deities not the first-fruits of myrrh nor of cassia and frankincense mingled with saffron; for these were adopted many generations later, when man becoming a wanderer in search of his necessary livelihood with many toils and tears offered drops of these tinctures as first-fruits to the gods.
'"Of these then they made no offerings formerly, but of herbage, which they lifted up in their hands as the bloom of the productive power of nature. For the earth gave forth trees before animals, and long before trees the herbage which is produced year by year; and of this they culled leaves and roots and the whole shoots of their growth, and burned them, greeting thus the visible deities of heaven with their offering, and dedicating to them the honours of perpetual fire.
'For these they also kept in their temples an undying fire, as being most especially like them. And from the fume (θυμιασις) of the produce of the earth they formed the words θυμιατηρια (altars of incense), and θυειν (to offer), and θυσιας (offerings),—words which we misunderstand as signifying the erroneous practice of later times, when we apply the term θυσια to the so-called worship which consists of animal sacrifice.
