Dopo il “sold out” registrato lo scorso 23 ottobre al Tunnel Club di Milano, Mark Tremonti torna in Italia a febbraio fra i suoi fans...in una location più grande come i Magazzini Generali.

Wizard Productions srl, La Contrada - Teatro Stabile di Trieste, Joye Entertainment e Karl Sydow in associazione con Lionsgate e Magic Hour Productions presentano Dirty Dancing di Eleanor Bergstein
Il debutto assoluto italiano di “Dirty Dancing - The Classic Story On Stage” è previsto a Milano il 9 ottobre al Barclays Teatro Nazionale con repliche fino al 28 dicembre 2014.
Un concentrato di romanticismo, sensualità e musiche travolgenti.
“Dirty Dancing - The Classic Story On Stage” è la fedele trasposizione teatrale dell’omonimo successo cinematografico, e racconta l’inaspettato incontro tra la giovane Baby Houseman e l’affascinante maestro di ballo Johnny Castle nel resort per famiglie “Da Kellerman”.
Una romantica storia d’amore sbocciata nella tipica atmosfera estiva di un villaggio turistico, raccontata da musiche indimenticabili e balli sensuali.
La ricerca del cast da parte del team creativo inglese, affiancato da quello italiano, e con la supervisione di Eleanor Bergstein, si è conclusa dopo oltre tre mesi di lavoro, durante i quali sono state raccolte più di 1000 candidature. Saranno Sara Santostasi nel ruolo di Frances “Baby” Houseman e Gabrio Gentilini nel ruolo di Johnny Castle, a guidare il cast italiano composto da: Federica Capra (Penny Johnson), Simone Pieroni (Dr. Jake Houseman), Mimmo Chianese (Max Kellerman), Irene Urciuoli (Lisa Houseman), Natalia Magni (Marjorie Houseman), Rodolfo Ciulla (Neil Kellerman), Marco Stabile (Billy Kostecki, Renato Cortesi (Mr. Schumacher), Russell Russell (Tito Suarez), Giuseppe Verzicco (ensemble/Robbie Gould), Ilaria De Angelis (ensemble/Elizabeth), Pasquale Girone (ensemble/Jordan), Chiara Rosignoli (ensemble/Vivian Pressman), Aldo Esposito (ensemble/Moe Pressman), Lucia Blanco (ensemble), José Antonio Dominguez (ensemble), Sara Marinaccio (ensemble), Giusy Messina (ensemble), Paky Vicenti (ensemble), Azzurra Adinolfi (swing) e Thomas Signorelli (swing/dance captain).
Un’orchestra di otto elementi suonerà dal vivo le celebri musiche dello spettacolo “(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life”, vincitrice di un Premio Oscar e di un Golden Globe, è solo uno dei successi che compongono la straordinaria colonna sonora, che comprende hit internazionali come “Hungry Eyes”, “Do You Love Me?” e “Hey! Baby”. Rispetto alla versione inglese, nell’adattamento italiano verranno tradotti solo i dialoghi, mentre le canzoni resteranno in lingua originale.

The Postcard
A Comic Series postcard that was published by Bamforth & Co. Ltd. of Holmfirth, Yorkshire. The card was printed in England.
The card was posted using a 2d. stamp in Shanklin, Isle of Wight on Wednesday the 9th. June 1954 to:
The Staff,
James Blackford,
Oaken Hedges,
Fifth Road,
Newbury,
Berks.
The message on the divided back has faded to the point of being illegible.
McCarthyism
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 9th. June 1954, Joseph Welch, special counsel for the United States Army, lashed out at Senator Joseph McCarthy, during hearings on whether Communism had infiltrated the Army. He asked:
"Have you no sense of decency?"
George Perez
The day also marked the birth in The Bronx, New York of the
American comic book artist George Perez.
George worked primarily as a penciller. He came to prominence in the 1970's penciling Fantastic Four and The Avengers for Marvel Comics. In the 1980's he penciled The New Teen Titans, which became one of DC Comics' top-selling series.
George penciled DC's landmark series Crisis on Infinite Earths, followed by relaunching Wonder Woman as both writer and penciller for the rebooted series.
In the meantime, he worked on other comics published by Marvel, DC, and other companies into the 2010s. He was known for his detailed and realistic rendering, and his facility with complex crowd scenes.
George died in Sanford, Florida at the age of 67 on the 6th. May 2022.
'Cara Mia'
Also on the 9th. June 1954, the Number One chart hit record in the UK was Cara Mia by David Whitfield and the Mantovani Orchestra.
David Whitfield (2nd. February 1925 – 15th. January 1980) was a popular British male tenor vocalist from Hull. He became the first British artist to have a UK No. 1 single in the UK and in the United States with Cara Mia.
David died from a brain haemorrhage in Sydney, Australia, while on tour at the age of 54.
Codex Seraphinianus,[1] originally published in 1981, is an illustrated encyclopedia of an imaginary world, created by the Italian artist, architect, and industrial designer Luigi Serafini during thirty months, from 1976 to 1978.[2] The book is approximately 360 pages long (depending on edition), and written in a strange, generally unintelligible alphabet.[3]
Originally published in Italy, the book has since been released in several countries.[4]
It is believed that this book is in the public domain but this has not been confirmed.

Well Mr. Pringle has selected his 100 best fantasy novels all published during 1946-1987. He certainly expects us readers to fume and fret why this piece of tripe was included and our old favorite was omitted. Nonetheless agree or disagree his reviews provide a clear and concise plot synopsis and a short biographical sketch of the author.
I have acquired a number of these "best novels" collections and find them very helpful discovering novels I would never have read.
The Brian Aldiss foreword is quite entertaining as he muses why his favorites weren't included.
I'm now an Internationaly Published photographer! FDM magazine, from Asia contacted me through flickr to use my photo in there March 2011 issue. My photo appears on the cover, table of contents and page 26, with photo credit. :)
The Postcard
A postcard published by E. T. W. Dennis. The road in the photograph is actually Charing Cross Road -- St. Martin's Lane is the smaller road on the right of the photograph.
The card was posted in London W. C. on Wednesday the 6th. September 1905 to:
Mr. Norris,
41 Norwood Grove,
West Derby Road,
Liverpool.
The pencilled message on the back of the card was as follows:
"We are here for 8 days,
and enjoying ourselves
splendidly.
We made up our minds
all at once to come here
for a holiday.
Kind regards from
J. Gillespie".
The Edith Cavell Memorial
The island in Charing Cross Road is where the Edith Cavell Memorial was built after the Great War. It was unveiled by Queen Alexandra on the 17th. March 1920. It is Grade I listed.
Edith Cavell was a British nurse from Norfolk. She was matron at Berkendael Medical Institute in Brussels when the Great War broke out. In addition to nursing soldiers from both sides without distinction, she assisted some 200 Allied soldiers escape from German-occupied Belgium.
Edith was arrested in August 1915, court-martialled, found guilty of treason, and shot by a German firing squad on the 12th. October 1915. Her story was used in British propaganda as an example of German barbarism and moral depravity.
Her remains were initially buried in Belgium, but returned to Great Britain after the war in May 1919 for a state funeral at Westminster Abbey, before she was finally buried at Norwich Cathedral.
Although Cavell's sister suggested no monuments should be erected, funds for a public memorial were raised by a committee chaired by Viscount Burnham, owner of The Daily Telegraph, together with the Lord Mayor of London, the Bishop of London, and the chairman of the London County Council.
Sculptor Sir George Frampton accepted the commission in 1915, but declined any fee.
Description of the Memorial
Frampton adopted a Modernist style for the memorial, which comprises a 10 feet (3.0 m) high statue of Cavell in her nurse's uniform sculpted from white Carrara marble, standing on a grey Cornish granite pedestal.
The statue stands in front of a larger grey granite pylon which stands 40 feet (12 m) high and weighs 175 tons. The top of the block is carved into a cross and statue of a mother and child. The whole memorial is elevated on three steps.
On the pedestal beneath the statue of Cavell is an inscription which reads:
"Edith Cavell
Brussels
Dawn
October 12th. 1915
Patriotism is not enough
I must have no hatred or
bitterness for anyone."
The last three lines of the inscription quote her comment to Reverend Stirling Gahan, an Anglican chaplain who was permitted to give her Holy Communion on the night before her execution. These words were initially left off, and added in 1924 at the request of the National Council of Women.
The University of Kansas School of Medicine
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on Wednesday the 6th. September 1905, the University of Kansas School of Medicine opened its doors for the first day of classes.
A whopping 125 physicians, working generally on a voluntary basis, were available to teach KU's enrolled medical students.
This photograph was published in an online article in DEVON LIVE on 16th May 2025 by Kate Lally and titled:
''Kitchen staple that keeps slugs and other pests out of garden

This is my first picture i have had published and I'm absolutely oven the moon, really, no pun intended.
I can't even begin to explain how happy this has made me, I'm a total amateur, I'm not a professional photographer, i just like to get out there and take some pictures purely as a hobby when I have a spare 5 minutes, i only just bought my first DSLR 2 months before taking this picture on it.
I was paid for the picture, but the money actually means very little, what I'm really ecstatic about is the fact i now have a free copy of a magazine that has one of my pictures in it, money can't buy that.
3 years taking pictures when i could as a hobby and now i have a picture Published, need a say more ? I'm just so happy.
I don't necessarily agree with black & white photos and especially not night photos, but they paid for it, so the can use it how they like.
The original picture is here.

I love long exposures, everything to do with night time, the dark, sunrise and sunset.
I like to take pictures mainly at night , sometimes during the day and in dull and fading light and I will sometimes display the time and date the picture was taken too.
I tend to take pictures of Light trails, Motorway traffic, Street lights, Buildings, Landscapes, Bokeh, Night bokeh and Hexagonal Night Bokeh in England.
All of my pictures are 100% natural and untouched in every way without ever been Photo shopped or altered or messed about with in anyway whatsoever, No multi layered photography, No HDR's and No image manipulation of any kind, all of my pictures look just the way they did when I saw them at the time of taking and I'm VERY PROUD of that.
I don't do any photo processing at all, I don't even own any photo software.
All of my starbursts are all 100% natural without using any filters or anything else, as is all my bokeh, night bokeh and hexagonal night bokeh, its all natural, no funny gimmicks at all.
I don't do anything with my pictures apart from take them and then upload them , 99.99999% of my pictures don't even get cropped , they are all 100% natural and untouched and then uploaded.

The Postcard
A postcard that was published by Valentine & Sons Ltd. of Dundee and London. The image is a glossy real photograph, and the card was printed in Great Britain.
The card was posted in Glasgow using a 2d. stamp on Friday the 3rd. June 1949. The postmark informs the reader of:
'Scottish Industries
Exhibition Glasgow.
1st. to 17th. Sept. 1949.'

The Kyles of Bute
The Kyles of Bute is a narrow, scenic sea channel in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, that separates the northern end of the Isle of Bute from the Cowal Peninsula on the Scottish mainland.
Renowned for its dramatic, tree-lined hillsides and tranquil waters, this stunning strait is designated as a National Scenic Area.
The channel is roughly 20 miles long, and less than a mile wide at its narrowest points. It is naturally split into two distinct stretches:
-- The East Kyle: Runs from Rothesay Bay northwest up toward Loch Riddon. It features a cluster of small, uninhabited islands, including the Burnt Islands and Eilean Dubh (Black Island).
-- The West Kyle: Sweeps southwest from the mouth of Loch Riddon, passing picturesque coastal villages before opening into the Sound of Bute.
-- Key Attractions
-- Kyles of Bute Viewpoint: Located on the mainland side along the high road between Tighnabruaich and Colintraive. Maintained by the National Trust for Scotland, this famous roadside layby offers panoramic vistas looking down over the Burnt Islands and Loch Riddon.
-- Boating and Sailing: The waters are highly sheltered, making them a haven for yachts and kayakers. You can book local excursions like Bute Boat Tours to see the resident seal colonies and spot porpoises or sea eagles.
-- Charming Villages: The mainland villages of Tighnabruaich, Kames, and Colintraive frame the channel, offering traditional pubs, shoreline walks, and overnight moorings.
-- The Colintraive Ferry: One of Scotland's shortest ferry crossings, connecting Rhubodach on Bute to Colintraive on the mainland in just a few minutes.
-- Hiking: The shoreline forms part of the Loch Lomond and Cowal Way, offering excellent hiking paths through silver birch woodlands and rocky ledges.

An Admission of Telling Porkies
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 3rd. June 1949, while testifying at the trial of Alger Hiss, Whittaker Chambers admitted under cross-examination that he had lied to the FBI and to the House Un-American Activities Committee in previous statements about Communist spy activities in the United States.
Contempt of Court in NY
Also on that day, in New York, three of the eleven defendants in the Smith Act trial (John Gates, Henry Winston and Gus Hall) were sent to jail by Judge Harold Medina for contempt of court.
Confusion Over the Name of a Country
Also on the 3rd. June 1949, the official gazette of King Abdullah cleared up confusion about his country's name by announcing that it had been changed from Transjordan to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
The name change had been decided upon in December 1948, but international press coverage had continued to refer to the country as Transjordan, because it was not known when the change had become official.
Mickey Rooney
Also on that day, Mickey Rooney married actress Martha Vickers just hours after picking up his final divorce papers from his second wife Betty Jane Rase.
Dragnet
Also on the 3rd. June 1949, the police procedural drama series Dragnet premiered on NBC Radio. The program was later made into a popular TV series running from 1951 to 1959.
-- Procedural Drama
A procedural drama is a genre of television and literature that focuses on the step-by-step, technical processes of professionals (such as detectives, lawyers, or doctors) solving a case.
It primarily uses an episodic structure where a problem is introduced and generally fully resolved within a single episode.
Shelley Winters
Also on that day, the mystery film Take One False Step starring William Powell and Shelley Winters premiered in Los Angeles.

-- Jan Kubelík - The Early Years
Jan was born in Michle (now part of Prague). His father, a gardener by occupation, was an amateur violinist.
He taught his two sons the violin, and after discovering the talent of Jan, who was aged five at the time, arranged for him to study with Karel Weber and Karel Ondříček.
At the age of eight Jan studied at the Prague Conservatory with Otakar Ševčík, of whose technique he became the most famous representative. As a child, he used to practise for 10 to 12 hours a day, or "until my fingers started to bleed."
In 1898 he toured as a soloist, soon becoming renowned for his great virtuosity and flawless intonation, and his very full and noble tone. He played a Guarneri del Gesù and also two Stradivarius violins: he acquired the 1715 Stradivarius Emperor in 1910.
-- Jan Kubelík's Musical Career
After great success following his debut in Vienna, and in London (where he first appeared at a Hans Richter concert in 1900), Kubelík toured in the USA in 1901 for the first time.
Jan made his first appearance with the Royal Philharmonic Society, London in the season of 1901–2, and in 1902 was awarded the Society's Gold Medal. In 1902 he brought the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra to London, having assisted it financially in the previous year.
In 1903 he married Countess Anna Julie Marie Széll von Bessenyö (born on the 1st. March 1880 in Budapest), niece of former Prime Minister of Hungary Kálmán Széll, with whom he had eight children, five violinist daughters and three sons, among them the conductor Rafael Kubelík.
Kubelík made a number of recordings for The Gramophone Company, and for Fonotipia/Polydor. The Gramophone Company recorded him as obbligato to Dame Nellie Melba in 1904, a match which reflected the classical phrasing and tonal purity of his art, and which was an ideal complement to Dame Nellie.
Their early version of the Bach-Gounod 'Ave Maria' was recorded twice, in October 1904 and again in February 1905; it became one of the great early classics of the gramophone, and was one of those records which made the instrument a popular success, even though the double celebrity single-sided title retailed at one guinea.
Nine years later (when recording technology had improved) the partnership was reformed to re-make the record in May 1913 with organ accompaniment, and again in October 1913. It was the latter version which then survived in the inter-war catalogue in two-sided form. Jan's 1935 Carnegie Hall concert was also recorded, and has been reissued.
Jan wrote music, including six violin concertos, and continued to perform in public until his death, with a pause between the end of the Great War and 1920, during which period he composed.
In 1920 Jan resumed his concert career, but with the advent of Jascha Heifetz, his career dwindled somewhat.
-- The Death of Jan Kubelík
Jan died in Prague in 1940, at the young age of 60.
-- Critical Reception and Legacy of Jan Kubelík
In 1907, reviewing a concert by Kubelík at New York's massive Hippodrome Theatre, the New York Times wrote:
"Mr. Kubelík's artistry is of the most remarkable
kind. He is not a deeply moving player; he has
not the power of touching profoundly and
immediately the hearts of his listeners, nor of
laying hold of the inner mystery of the greatest
music.
There is something aloof in him as he plays it;
yet few have the power of so ravishing the
senses with the sheer beauty of his tone, the
charm of his cantilena, the elegance and ease
with which he masters all the technical difficulties
of what he is playing so that they no longer suggest
themselves as difficulties.
Octaves, thirds and sixths drop from his instrument
in a tone of honeyed sweetness and oily smoothness;
not a large tone, but one of indescribable roundness
and purity; his runs and passages of all sorts are as
pearls from his hands.
There is something of feminine grace and charm in
Mr. Kubelík's playing, and he seldom compels by its
authority or stirs by its passion and virility, but in its
way it is wholly delightful".
In 1903 Kubelík's portrait was painted by Philip de László, and a 1912 Cubist painting by Georges Braque incorporates a handbill featuring the words "Mozart Kubelick" (sic).
Carl Sandburg mentions Jan Kubelík in his Chicago Poems (1916).
He is adored by the sisters in Sally Benson's collected short stories, which later became the film 'Meet Me in St. Louis' (1944).
Kubelik is also referred to in Robert Ludlum's 2002 novel 'The Janson Directive'.

The 45EPIC landscapes and goddesses are straight out of Homer's Iliad & Odyssey!
I'm currently updating a translation with the Greek names for the gods and goddesses--will publish soon! :)
"RAGE--Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. " --Homer's Iliad capturing the rage of the 45EPIC landscapes and seascapes! :)

Published by Longmans Young Books in 1969.
Finding this book has very nearly finalised my quest for my childhood books. This was very elusive, I only remembered the cover and images and not the name, so all google searches were fruitless. Then my mum spotted it for me at a boot sale, and I was thrilled to bits!
A question - anyone know a book about a little bear who ran away to join the circus? Early 1970s? American?
