Dita Von Teese (1972) is an American burlesque dancer, model, costume designer, entrepreneur and occasional actress. Von Teese got her stage name by adopting the name Dita as a tribute to silent film actress Dita Parlo. For her breakthrough December 2002 Playboy cover, she was required to have a surname, so she chose Von Treese from the phonebook. In the magazine, this was misspelled as Von Teese, which she decided to stick with. She is thought to have helped repopularize burlesque performance and was formerly married to Marilyn Manson. Von Teese participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 in Moscow, Russia, as part of the stage performance for the German entry Miss Kiss Kiss Bang.

My second take on a French Resistance song Leonard Cohen repopularized.
I find the song and the movement incredibly moving and powerful. Please watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_223jKXKgQ
When they poured across the border
I was cautioned to surrender,
this I could not do;
I took my gun and vanished.
I have changed my name so often,
I've lost my wife and children
but I have many friends,
and some of them are with me.
An old woman gave us shelter,
kept us hidden in the garret,
then the soldiers came;
she died without a whisper.
There were three of us this morning
I'm the only one this evening
but I must go on;
the frontiers are my prison.
On 21 January at Palais Orleans 20 artists and 20 pieces . . .all representing the title of or a line from a Leonard Cohen song will be opening. Organized and curated by Morgana Nagorski. Additional pieces will be displayed in a garden area outside the main gallery.

A solid 1930's portable gramophone. Ideal for your picnics (though very loud in volume)!
Made in Switzerland by Thorens and marketed by 'N.V. Willem Sprenger' in The Hague.
Lined up is the über-smooth The Great Pretender (1955) by The Platters, later repopularized by Freddy Mercury. It is backed by another vocal evergreen, 'Only you'.
True Kamehameha brand, not the Miss Hawaii by Kamehameha!
Beautiful color, pattern and style.
This style has been repopularized recently.
Grab a piece of fashion history!
A popular song by an Indy group (Fleet Foxes) repopularize by Pentatonix, who added the percussive hand movements.
Mikey and I drove up to Albuquerque to catch Cory Doctorow's talk in support of his new book Homeland. Cory is masterful at being sweet and blunt at the same time and this made me like him right away. I long for the repopularizing of sparing that pushes the growing edge of an idea.
Cory's dives right to meat of the matter, why we must keep the internet free and open. He described internet regs as about as logical as plugging a waffle iron into a toaster. He asked if we want technology to be like Hal, "I'm afraid I can't do that Dave," or if we want it to serve the individual.
I left the talk feeling grateful, Cory is willing to stand up. He knows that to do so can be dangerous. Aaron Schwartz played a creative role in Cory's new book and in his life. One can still feel the thread of connection between them.
As I drove home I asked I can do to support people like Cory. Cory answers this question himself:
He pointed to open source and creative commons and suggested that we not trust the machines that are not open. He gave the example of spyware used to turn our machines against us.
Stand up for digital rights. When SOPA was being fought a winning strategy used was web based pop ups that directed people to their local congress people. This action helped tip the scales.
He also asked us to connect heart to heart with one another, and remember to ask people, "how do you feel?" Ultimately the world we're fighting to keep free is one of living creatures. Connect.

The name Paris derives from that of its earliest inhabitants, the Gaulish tribe known as the Parisii. The city was called Lutetia (more fully, Lutetia Parisiorum, "Lutetia of the Parisii"), during the Roman era of the 1st to the 6th century, but during the reign of Julian the Apostate, (360–363) the city was renamed Paris.
It is considered that the name of the Parisii tribe comes from the Celtic Gallic word parisio meaning "the working people" or "the craftsmen."
Since the mid-19th century, Paris has been known as Paname in the Parisian slang called argot ( Moi j'suis d'Paname). The singer Renaud repopularized the term amongst the young generation with his 1976 album Amoureux de Paname.
Paris has many nicknames, but its most famous is "La Ville-Lumière" ("The City of Light" or "The Illuminated City"), a name it owes first to its fame as a centre of education and ideas during the Age of Enlightenment, and later to its early adoption of street lighting.
