Opening-act di Ellie Goulding, al Mediolanum Forum di Assago il 1° febbraio 2016, Sara Hartman.

 

Sara Hartman is just full of surprises. This frizzy haired and funny 20-year-old with a huge voice had never left New York, but a year ago, she jumped on a plane by herself to Berlin, Germany in order to pursue a dream of making music.

 

“I had just finished reading Patti Smith’s book, Just Kids,” she recalls. “That really helped me while I was getting my bearings. To me, Berlin is like New York when it still had that raw young energy in the seventies. The streets might be dirty, but people are making art everywhere. That’s so intoxicating to me. Berlin is very welcoming for creative people. When you have a center like that, great things are inevitable. Being away from home is very hard, but the energy is beautiful.”

 

The story starts a long way from Berlin though. She might’ve been raised in Sag Harbor, but her upbringing couldn’t be farther apart from the usual depiction of The Hamptons in movies, television, and magazines. The Hartman family stood out among the few “year-round” natives. Dad designs and builds pools for the area’s residents, while mom creates visual art. In similar fashion, dad turned Sara on to the likes of Goldfinger, as mom introduced her to Radiohead and The Talking Heads. “Life is weird,” she smiles. “That’s a major characteristic of my childhood. My mom always encouraged my siblings and me to make things out of nothing. Meanwhile, my dad showed me a really diligent work ethic. I feel like I’ve got both of those sides in what I do—the head and the heart.” She took that mindset into the studio to create something different.

From the Lancashire Evening Telegraph, first published Friday 6th Sep 2002.

 

A 'BARMY' scheme to put an illuminated advertising sign on a prominent gasometer in Brierfield has been thrown out by councillors.

 

Chairman of Brierfield and Reedley committee Coun Frank Clifford said when first he first heard of the plan he thought it was a joke.

 

But the application, made by Webtext Limited, for the gas holder station in Glen Way, was serious and came before the committee.

 

In her report, Pendle Council case officer Kathryn Hewertson described the gasholder as an 'attractive Victorian design' which could be seen from Cuckstool Lane, parts of Fence and the M65.

 

The plan prompted objections from Brierfield Town Council, Old Laund Booth Parish Council and Brierfield and Western parishes committee.

 

Coun Clifford said: "We thought this was a huge joke but the man was serious!"

 

The banner would have measured 67m by 18m and covered half the circumference on the western side of the gasholder. Refusal was unanimously agreed by the committee, with Coun Clifford branding it "barmy".

I recently learned that a photo I took from the cycling leg of a triathlon was used as a two page spread in a book called "Bike Fit" from Bloomsbury Publishing. So of course I had to buy a copy for posterity.

Title: A New Philosophico Chorographical Chart of East-Kent

 

Creator: Christopher Packe

 

Description: Published at a scale of approximately 1:40,000. Has polar co-ordinates with origin on Canterbury

 

This black and white chart (its author, Christopher Packe, ‘indignantly refused to call it a map’ ) is one of the oldest in the Society’s collection and was ground-breaking for its time. Originally from St Albans, Packe (1686-1749) settled in Canterbury in 1726 where he was a practising physician until his death. On ‘many otherwise tedious journeys’ around his Kent practice he became interested in cartography, noting that the structure of the human body, with its ‘Systems of Arteries, Veins, or Nerves’, could be a microcosm for rivers and valleys of the natural world. Where cartographers before him had been concerned with illustrating the shape of the land and points of interest, Packe wanted to show the topography of the region of Kent he knew so well. Using sophisticated methods not previously employed, he single-handedly surveyed the whole area, measuring heights above sea level with a barometer, and in so doing created the first geomorphological map in the world. With a polar co-ordinate system centred on Canterbury (Packe had taken bearings with a theodolite mounted on top of Canterbury Cathedral) the chart shows the country about fifteen miles around the city, and is highly detailed, with hills and valleys, rivers and woods, as well as various private estates and all other places of habitation. It is also an early example of geological mapping, for although the areas are not shaded as we would see on a modern map, Packe has included the locations of chalk and gravel pits, shore and cliff line springs, and locations where amber and copperas stone had been found.

Shadows and Light; New Gods; Creepy; Eerie

By Dr. Jon Suter

 

An unusual new comic book is Marvel’s “Shadows and Light”. I have seen two issues of this quarterly anthology. There is more emphasis on the psychology of Marvel characters than on combat, but it is the black and white format that makes it unique.

 

Most of the stories are unusually good. In the first issue, artist Berni Wrighton provides an ambiguous reading of the character The Hulk. Artist Gene Ha and writer Gerard Jones have a good Black Widow story.

 

Writer Ron Marz and artist Brian Stelfrieze probe the relationship of superhero Daredevil with a blinded priest. The weakest story is artist Steve Ditko’s rendition of a Len Wein story about the early career of a superhero, Iron Man. Give this issue a B+.

 

I found the second issue somewhat stronger. Lee Weeks probes the difficulties of Ben Grimm’s acceptance of being the repulsive superhero, Thing. Writer Marv Wolfman and artist Liam Sharp have a strong Man-Thing story.

 

Artist Jim Starlin’s Doctor Strange story evokes Ditko’s glory days with this character, but Marc Andreyco and Jill Thompson do not live up to Ditko’s standards in their story of the Spider-man’s high school days. A- for this issue.

 

None of the stories is part of Marvel’s continuity. If this series can maintain its current excellence, it could have a long run.

 

The black and white format does not work as well for DC’s reprint of Jack Kirby’s “New Gods”. The reproductions are often muddy. Even at $11.95, this volume is essential for anyone without the color originals.

 

The stories are more than a quarter century old, but they hold up well. Some dialog seems awkward today, but the basic concepts still affect the DC universe.

 

Any discussion of black and white comics brings us to the miracles wrought in the early issues of “Creepy” and “Eerie” magazines by the late Archie Goodwin. Few writers have inspired as much excellent art as this departed genius.

The Postcard

 

A postcard published by Aerofilms and Aero Pictorial Ltd. of Elstree Way, Boreham Wood, Herts.

 

The back of the card states that W.T.A. stands for The Workers Travel Association, based at Eccleston Court, Gillingham Street, London S.W.

 

The card was posted in Dunoon on Monday the 23rd. May 1966 to:

 

Mrs. Robinson,

High Street,

Ruswarp,

Whitby,

Yorkshire.

 

The brief message on the divided back of the card was as follows:

 

"Dunoon.

Greetings from the

S.W.F.C. Party".

 

Aerofilms Ltd.

 

Aerofilms Ltd. was the UK's first commercial aerial photography company, founded in 1919 by Francis Wills and Claude Graham-White.

 

Wills had served as an Observer with the Royal Naval Air Service during World War I. He was the driving force behind the expansion of the company from an office and a bathroom (for developing films) in Hendon to a business with major contracts in Africa and Asia as well as in the UK.

 

Co-founder Graham-White was a pioneer aviator who had achieved fame by making the first night flight in 1910.

 

Aero Pictorial Ltd.

 

Aero Pictorial Ltd. was a British aerial photography company in operation between 1934–39 and then 1946-60.

 

It was founded by Aerofilms photographer Cyril Murrell (1899–1958), and run more or less as a one-man band. In his later years, Murrell flew from Elstree Aerodrome in Hertfordshire.

 

Pre-WW2 photos were taken on 5" x 4" glass plates, whilst post-war, similar sized roll film was used. This large negative format meant that the majority of photos were very sharp and detailed.

 

After Murrell's death in 1958, the company merged with Aerofilms, and ceased operating in 1960. This means that the above photograph was taken during between 1958 and 1960.

 

The Aerofilms archive was sold in 2007 to English Heritage and as a result, copyright on Aero Pictorial's photography rests with them.

 

The 2008 publication British Seaside Piers, by Chris Mawson & Richard Riding, was dedicated to Murrell as the book features a large number of aerial shots of piers drawn from the Aero Pictorial archive.

 

Kwak Kyung-taek

 

So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?

 

Well, the 23rd. May 1966 marked the birth in Busan, South Korea of Kwak Kyung-taek. He is a film director and screenwriter best known for his 2001 record-breaking film 'Friend'.

 

The film is a drama where conflicting criminal alliances turn old friends into enemies. It set a new Korean box office record with an audience of 8 million, and he received the Holden Award for Best Script at the 2001 Torino Film Festival.

 

In 2003 he received an award at the Philadelphia Film Festival for the boxing drama film 'Champion'. His 2005 action film 'Typhoon', however, was a commercial failure.

 

'Monday, Monday'

 

Also on that day, Billboard's Number One hit was 'Monday, Monday' by The Mamas and The Papas.

New to my neighbourhood is this magnificent young Chausie, a hybrid originally bred from the non domestic species Jungle cat (Felis Chaus) and a greater number of domestic cats (Felis Silvestris catus). This one is absolutely gorgeous, incredibly friendly and the single greatest predatory hunter I have ever witnessed in my garden, catching several mice in one sitting with consummate ease.

  

This is a brown ticked variant of the species that live to around 14 years and are highly intelligent, social and loving. Chausie kittens in the UK fetch between eight hundred and two thousand pounds each.

These four images plus two more images used as promos were in The Plain Dealer today. This is a full newspaper page in our Inside & Out section. Promo images are in photostream below.

 

Our daily circulation is 356,286 with daily readership estimated to be 883,690. So if only one in four readers finds this page, that's still 200,000 "hits," which is much better than this page will do on Flickr!

 

The images: Flying tigers, Julia butterfly, www.flickr.com/photos/jonfobes/106667951/ Pink orchid and Zebra butterfly.

 

I hadn't planned to, but I ended up writing the text block for these images, which reads:

  

Awesome. Orchids. Everywhere.

 

That pretty much sums up the Cleveland Botanical Garden's "Orchid Mania: Blossoms & Butterflies" show, running through March 26.

 

The other thing to know about the event can be summed up in even fewer words: bountiful butterflies, approximately three times more than normally seen in the Cloud Forest of Costa Rica biome in the Eleanor Armstrong Smith Glasshouse.

 

You'll see, among others, Postman, Cattleheart, Zebra Longwing and Julia butterflies and also the captivating Blue Morpho; you'll watch them flutter around orchids, ginger blossoms, leaves, branches and even land on visitors, providing magical moments that have patrons pointing their cameras in three directions at once and clicking shutters as fast as their fingers can function.

 

And don't forget to visit the spiny desert of Madagascar, also in the glasshouse. The resident chameleon is as beautiful as any flower.

 

But the stars of this show are the awesome orchids: Big orchids, small orchids, white orchids, purple orchids ... some peer out from frames as living artwork, others spring from free-standing orchid sculptures, and others congregate in pots that haunt every nook and cranny of the botanical garden.

 

As one weary worker said Thursday during setup for the show, "If there's such a thing as orchid overdose, this might be it!" But of course, there's no such thing as orchid overdose, just as there's no such thing as too much beauty – you always want more.

 

The Victorians coined the word "orchidelirium" to describe flower madness – now I know why.

Steve Hackett presenta “Genesis Classics with Hackett Favourites Introducing Wolflight" all’Estathé Market Sound a Milano.

 

Da Acolyte a Wolflight con Genesis Revisited. Il leggendario Steve Hackett torna con un nuovo disco e un live set che è una “total experience” per gli amanti del prog e della musica. Senza confini di genere e di tempo.

 

Dopo due anni di successi e sold out, il leggendario chitarrista dei Genesis Steve Hackett continua la rivisitazione della sua carriera, con il meglio del repertorio Genesis, il 40ennale del primo album solista “Voyage of the Acolyte” e un nuovo capitolo appena scritto, “Wolflight”, che sta già scalando le classifiche.

Con una carriera e un repertorio che attraversa decenni di storia del rock, dai Genesis alla sua eccezionale carriera solistica, dopo i Genesis Revisited Tour del 2013 e 2014 che lo hanno portato in tutto il mondo, i premi e i concerti in teatri storici come la Royal Albert Hall, Steve Hackett annuncia il nuovo tour mondale che toccherà l'Italia nel settembre 2015.

 

Il live set includerà infatti i brani favoriti del Genesis Revisited, oltre all'omaggio al primo album solista e alla presentazione dal vivo di alcuni brani del nuovo album, capitolo più recente di una lunga carriera che lo ha portato a pubblicare, oltre ai 7 album con i Genesis, 30 album da solista e uno con il super gruppo GTR insieme con Steve Howe degli Yes e dell'Asia.

Un musicista che ha percorso la storia del rock e continua a percorrere i sentieri della creatività musicale.

 

Il nuovo album "Wolflight", uscito alla fine di marzo di quest'anno è il primo album originale in studio dopo "Beyond The Shrouded Horizon", del 2011. Porta l'ascoltatore in un lungo viaggio musicale, dalle antiche culture ai ricordi d'infanzia, da "Black Thunder" ispirata da Martin Luther King, a "Corycian Fire" ispirato ai luoghi mistici della Grecia antica a "Love Song To A Vampire" che si interroga sul difficile tema delle relazioni abusive.

 

Sul palco con Steve Hackett un eccezionale team di musicisti di altissimo livello: alle tastiere Roger King (Gary Moore) alla batteria, percussioni e voce Gary O'Toole (Kylie Minogue, Chrissie Hynde), al sax, flauto e percussioni Rob Townsend (Bill Bruford), al basso e chitarra Roine Stolte (Flower Kings), già special guest in Genesis Revisited e per la prima volta nella line up della band, e alla voce Nad Sylvan (Agents of Mercy).

The Postcard

 

A Pictorchrom postcard that was printed and published by the Pictorial Stationery Co. Ltd. of London.

 

The card was posted in Penzance on Friday the 5th. October 1906 to:

 

Mr. G. Mann,

The Grove Farm,

Bellbroughton,

Worcestershire.

 

The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:

 

"No. 3, South Terrace,

Penzance.

We are down here for a

few days. A lovely place,

warm and plenty of sea.

Come if you can - the

train starts from B'ham

at 10.15 every day, & stops

at Bromsgrove about 10.45.

You would like this.

E. Richard."

 

Morrab Gardens

 

Morrab Gardens are a municipal garden covering 1.2 ha (3.0 acres) to the south of Penzance town centre, Cornwall. It is known for its Mediterranean and sub-tropical plants; and for housing the Morrab Library in the grounds.

 

Early History of the Gardens

 

Morrab House with its walled garden was built in 1841 for brewer Samuel Pidwell. The house is described as:

 

"A large stucco villa in the Georgian

manner with columned porch".

 

There was also a cottage suitable for a coachman or gardener, stables for three horses, a conservatory with hot water apparatus, a dairy, coach-house, fruit and flower gardens, along with lawn and meadow land.

 

Shortly after the Pidwell family moved to Portugal, the property was purchased by Charles Campbell Ross, a banker and Member of Parliament for the St. Ives Constituency. In September 1881, Ross advertised Morrab House for rent.

 

Morrab House was auctioned on the 29th. August 1887 and was purchased for £2,800 by Mr King, who was Her Majesty's Inspector of Schools for the district. At that time a tenant was paying £115 rent for the house and grounds.

 

Municipal Acquisition of the House and Grounds

 

On the 16th. July 1888 the house and walled gardens were bought by the Corporation of Penzance for £3,120, and tenders for the design of the garden were advertised nationally.

 

The winning prize was £21, with ten guineas for second place plus two other prizes. Entrants came from all over the country with ten plans exhibited and four winners chosen.

 

Reginald Upcher, a landscape gardener of Portland Place, London was commissioned to develop the grassy fields sloping down to the sea into a municipal park. Robert Veitch of Exeter came second.

 

The original design is held in the County Record Office, Truro and the garden follows faithfully Upcher's plan. The gardens opened on the 27th. September 1889 with a half day holiday and a procession through the streets.

 

In the same year the Penzance Library (now known as the Morrab Library) secured a lease as tenants and moved to Morrab House from the municipal buildings. The garden is now in the ownership of Cornwall Council, and features some Grade II Listed Buildings, including a Victorian bandstand, fountain and Boer war memorial.

 

Renato William Jones

 

So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?

 

Well, the 5th. October 1906 marked the birth in Rome, Kingdom of Italy, of Renato William Jones.

 

William was a British basketball executive and populariser of basketball in Europe and in Asia. He held an honorary doctorate from Springfield College.

 

Jones was one of the founding fathers of the Fédération Internationale de Basketball Amateur (FIBA) in 1932, and served as its first Secretary-General from 1932 until 1976.

 

From 1932 he was eager to convince the IOC that an Olympic tournament should be organised in the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games. After the International Handball Federation (IAHF) renounced on its responsibility for basketball in 1934, FIBA was accepted as autonomous body by IOC and the Berlin event could be held under Jones' supervision.

 

William was elected to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1964, and the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2007. He was also made a patron of the Amateur Basketball Association of England in 1973.

 

The 1972 Decision

 

William is most widely known for his decision at the 1972 Olympic Men's Basketball Final. The United States appeared to have defeated the Soviet Union 50-49 for an unprecedented eighth straight gold medal.

 

However, Jones came out of the stands and ordered the time clock technician to put three seconds back on the game clock. The ruling allowed the Soviet team to score a final basket and win 51-50. William was controversially quoted later as saying:

 

"The Americans have to learn how

to lose, even when they think they

are right."

 

Jones later conceded that he had no authority to make a ruling during a game. However, his power over international basketball was such that the technician complied.

 

The Death of Renato William Jones

 

William died at the age of 74 on the 22nd. April 1981 in Munich, West Germany.
