History
The Business Academy Vienna (after Prague) was founded in 1857 as the second commercial academy in Austria-Hungary, in the following year, the class began with 5 teachers and 59 students. The first president of the Academy of Commerce was Friedrich Schey of Koromla. The building of the Commercial Academy in the Akademiestraße near the Karlsplatz was designed by the architect Ferdinand Fellner the Elder and completed in 1862.
The New Vienna Commercial Academy was founded by the Vienna Mercantile Association in 1905. The school building was built 1906-1907 at Hamerlingplatz after the design of Julius and Wunibald Deininger. Also in 1907, by the physicist Dr. Olga Ehrenhaft-Steindler the first Viennese Commercial Academy for Girls was established in the Schönborngasse. In the other business schools girls were not taught until 1921 and in separate classes.
The Vienna Commercial academies were taken over by the Board of the Vienna merchants in the 1920s, in the period 1940 to 1954 the city of Vienna took over the sponsorship. All Vienna Commercial Academies were introduced after 1952 in the newly established funds of the Wiener Kaufmannschaft and received in doing so new names: Trading Academy was renamed HAK I, the New Business Academy in HAK II, the Vienna Commercial Academy for Girls in HAK III. 1957 was set up in what was then the district of Vienna Mödling (it now belongs to Lower Austria) another commercial academy in a former trade school, the HAK IV.
Since 1997, trade academies operate under the name Vienna Business School.

The Vienna State Opera (Wiener Staatsoper) is an opera house – and opera company – with a history dating back to the mid-19th century. It is located in the centre of Vienna, Austria. It was originally called the Vienna Court Opera (Wiener Hofoper); in 1920, it was renamed the Vienna State Opera. The members of the Vienna Philharmonic are recruited from its orchestra.
The building was the first major building on the Vienna Ringstraße commissioned by the controversial Viennese "city expansion fund". Work commenced on the building in 1861 and was completed in 1869, following plans drawn up by architects August Sicard von Sicardsburg and Eduard van der Nüll, who lived together in the 6. Bezirk. It was built in the Neo-Renaissance style.
The Ministry of the Interior had commissioned a number of reports into the availability of certain building materials, with the result that stones long not seen in Vienna were used, such as Wöllersdorfer Stein, for plinths and free-standing, simply-divided buttresses, the famously hard stone from Kaisersteinbruch, whose colour was more appropriate than that of Kelheimerstein, for more lushly decorated parts. The somewhat coarser-grained Kelheimerstein (also known as Solnhof Plattenstein) was intended as the main stone to be used in the building of the opera house, but the necessary quantity was not deliverable. Breitenbrunner stone was suggested as a substitute for the Kelheimer stone, and stone from Jois was used as a cheaper alternative to the Kaiserstein. The staircases were constructed from polished Kaiserstein, while most of the rest of the interior was decorated with varieties of marble.
The decision was made to use dimension stone for the exterior of the building. Due to the monumental demand for stone, stone from Sóskút, widely used in Budapest, was also used. Three Viennese masonry companies were employed to supply enough masonry labour: Eduard Hauser (still in existence today), Anton Wasserburger and Moritz Pranter. The foundation stone was laid on May 20, 1863.

The exciting new opera house is located right on the waters of the Oslofjord; it was constructed between 2003 and 2007 and formally opened in 2008. It was designed by the Oslo architecture firm Snøhetta AS.
It has quickly become Oslo's most iconic building. The most intriguing aspect of its design is its roof construction. If reaches from the top of the building all the way to the waters of the Oslofjord. People can walk on the entire roof, and on a sunny day many locals lie on the sloped roof and work on a sun tan.
Opera Garnier, designed it in 1862 by Charles Garnier, is now the national ballet centre.

Hazelnut macarons sandwiched with expresso buttercream and a dark chocolate ganache centre. I really like the pale cream colour of the macaron shells, flecked with tiny brown specs of hazelnut skin. Read more about them and how you can take them home here.
Cork Opera House is a theatre and opera house in Cork in the Republic of Ireland. It was originally built in 1855, although its existence has not been continuous; having survived the burning of much of Cork by British forces in reprisal for an ambush of a military convoy in 1920 by Irish rebels, the Opera House nevertheless was burned down in its centenary year by a combination of old wiring and wooden materials. Although Cork had until then boasted the presence of a proper theatre in some form for over 250 years, it was not until 1963 that the Opera House was rebuilt fully and opened.
The Manchester Opera House is a great place to catch shows in Manchester.

I started some geranium cuttings and had to trim some leaves and flowers. This flower looked so pretty in the blue bottle, I had to paint it!. The paint color opera was the perfect color for this flower.

As a member of the EDNA team I visited Buxton Opera House to take location shots for "Discover Buxton tours", a local company with a little red tour tram.
The Opera House is the first stop on their tour of the town and despite them usually only viewing the outside of the building during the tour we were able to document the inside for use on their website and tour guide.

Tokyo Plastic produces some of the most amazing flash animations I've ever seen -- the music, the art, everything meshes into an amazing whole. Their first toy, the Kokeshi (geisha) doll figure, was incredibly well-received with the various colorways selling out in a flash. Opera Dude is the lastest Tokyo Plastic character to make the jump to 3D.
