La regina della soul di Memphis incontra gli esplosivi Malted Milk

Sono davvero un evento imperdibile per tutti gli appassionati di soul & black music i due concerti che Malted Milk & Toni Green proporranno nel week-end conclusivo del festival. Lanciato dal fortunato album Milk & Green (2014) e accolto ovunque con entusiasmo, lo spettacolo è il frutto della collaborazione fra Arnaud Fradin â alias Malted Milk â esplosivo chitarrista francese e cantante dotato di un falsetto devastante â e Toni Green, cantante cresciuta alla scuola della soul music di Memphis che ha fatto parte per tanti anni dellâentourage del leggendario Isaac Hayes e altri personaggi di spicco della musica black come Luther Ingram, Dennie Edwards dei Temptations, o i âDoobie Brothersâ, di cui è stata corista e solista. Appassionante cocktail bluesy e funky, lo spettacolo propone pezzi storici della soul music, dellâR&B contemporaneo (Mary J. Blige), composizioni originali di Malted Milk, altre scritte a due mani con Toni Green, oltre ad alcuni cavalli di battaglia della stessa cantante. Una proposta davvero di grande impatto!

 

The Queen of Memphis Soul meets Malted Milk

The two concerts that the Malted Milk & Toni Green will give in the festival's closing weekend are a must for all soul & black music fans. Their show has grown out of the success of their 2014 debut Milk & Green and is a project that unites Arnaud Fradin â aka Malted Milk -, the explosive French guitarist and singer with a masterful falsetto and Toni Green, an alumni of the Memphis school of soul music who belonged to the entourage of the legendary Isaac Hayes and who has collaborated with prominent figures such as Dennie Edwards of the Temptations or the Dobbie Brothers. Their show is an enticing cocktail of blues and funk that includes soul hits, contemporary R&B (Mary J. Blige), original compositions by the Malted Milk and Toni Green, and some of her own favorite pieces. Don't miss them!

 

Die Soul-Königin aus Memphis trifft auf die explosiven Malted Milk

Unverzichtbar für alle Liebhaber von Soul & Black Music sind die beiden Konzerte, die Malted Milk & Toni Green am letzten Festival-Wochenende geben. Seit dem geglückten Album Milk & Green (2014) werden die beiden überall enthusiastisch empfangen. Die Bühnenshow ist das Resultat dieser Zusammenarbeit zwischen Arnaud Fradin - alias Malted Milk - dem explosiven Gitarristen und Sänger aus Frankreich mit seinem unschlagbaren Falsett und Toni Green, die durch die Soulschule von Memphis ging und während vieler Jahre zur musikalischen Entourage des legendären Isaac Hayes und anderer illustrer Figuren der schwarzen Musik gehörte, wie Luther Ingram, Dennie Edwards der Temptations oder den âDoobie Brothersâ, bei denen sie als Choristin und Solistin auftrat. Ein begeisternder Cocktail aus Blues und Funk, mit historischen Stücken aus der Soulmusik, zeitgenössischem R&B (Mary J. Blide), Eigenkompositionen von Malted Milk oder Milk & Green und einigen Hits von Toni Green. Ein wirklich schlagkräftiges Programm!

بيت لا تمر فيه جياع أهله، قالها خير البشر عليه الصلاة والسلام.

The construction of the Nottebohm Castle dates back to the early 20th century. This house with singular and eccentric architecture belonged to a certain Mr. Nottebohm. Some rumors say that the rich Nottebohm family lived in this Belgian mansion but left it during the Second World War, leaving the place to die.

 

Today, although this castle attracts the curiosity of many urban explorers, the interior is totally ransacked and the access to the floors has become impossible. As we can see on some archive postcards, the building was once equipped with a cupola that is now collapsed.

 

Ransom Riggs, the author of the novel « Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children » adapted to the screen by Tim Burton in 2016, made a documented report about this place, probably looking for a potential location for the movie. Against all rumors, the shooting of the film was not done in this castle but in another large house – not ransacked nor abandoned – in the same region of Belgium. It was probably a better alternative found by the production, given the state of this site.

 

---

 

La construction du Château Nottebohm remonte au début du XXe siècle. Cette demeure à l’architecture pour le moins singulière et excentrique appartenait à un certain monsieur Nottebohm. Certaines rumeurs disent que la riche famille Nottebohm vivait dans ce manoir belge mais la quitta pendant la seconde Guerre Mondiale, laissant le lieu dépérir.

 

Aujourd’hui, bien que ce château suscite la curiosité de bien des urbexeurs, l’intérieur est totalement délabré et l’accès aux étages est devenu impossible. Comme nous pouvons le voir sur certaines cartes postales d’archive, le bâtiment était autrefois muni d’une coupole, aujourd’hui détruite.

 

Ransom Riggs, l’auteur du roman « Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children » adapté au cinéma par Tim Burton en 2016, y a fait un repérage documenté probablement dans l’optique du tournage. Contre toute rumeur véhiculée sur le net, le tournage du film ne s’est pas fait dans ce château mais dans une autre grande demeure – non délabrée ni abandonnée celle-là – dans la même région, en Belgique. Probablement une meilleure alternative trouvée par la production, vu l’état de ce site.

The Palmery, Tozeur, Tunisia.

Dates are among the Seven Species (Shiv'at HaMinim in Hebrew). There are seven types of fruits and grains enumerated in the Hebrew Bible as being special products of the Land of Israel:

1. Wheat

2. Barley

3. Grapes

4. Figs

5. Pomegranates

6. Olives

7. Dates

These seven species are customarillly eaten on the Jewish "New Year for Trees" (Tu Bishvat), on the "Festival of Booths" (Sukkoth) and on the "Festival of Weeks" (Shavuot).

In the Halakha (the Jewish law) they are considered more important than other fruits and a special blessing is recited after eating them. Additionally, the blessing prior to eating them precedes those of other food items, except for bread.

The First Fruits offering in the Temple in Jerusalem was brought from the Seven Species.

The church dates from the 13th century or earlier and was added to in the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries, and restored in 1897 and 1984.

It consists of a west tower, nave, north and south aisles, south porch and a chancel continuous with the nave and chapel to the north and south, with a narrower sanctuary. The church is built of coursed stone and has plain tiled roofs.

The tower is from the 15th century and consists of three stages. There is south-east stair turret taller than the tower, which has a battlemented top. There are six bells mostly dating from the 18th century. There is a tall 15th century tower arch.

 

The south porch is also 15th century with a stoup.

The north chancel chapel is 14th century, and has a steeply pitched gabled roof which is higher than the chancel. It has ornate north and east windows.

The north aisle is early 15th century, there is a Rood loft stair turret on the west side of the north chapel.

The nave is 14th century with a four bay arcade with octagonal columns. The north arcade is slightly different from the south. The chancel has a 2 Bay arcade from around the 14th century.

The roof has octagonal Crown posts with moulded capitals and bases.

There is a late 13th century hexagonal Font on seven plain stone shafts and a carved 17th-century wooden pulpit.

The north chapel has a brass to Sir Edward Filmer with figures of Sir Edward, his wife Elizabeth and 18 children, 9 sons and 9 daughters. He is dressed in a ruff with wonderful leather boots and died in 1629. The Filmer family were former owners of the adjacent house of East Sutton Park. The building is now a small prison.

There are also a monuments to other members of the Filmer family, including Edmund Filmer who died aged six months. On the south wall of the south Chapel there is a monument to Edmund Randolph and his wife from the early 17th century.

saturday 27th june;

i apologies for the bad quality pictures. im struggling to come up with ideas for my 365 and tbh i would rather the pics be off my canon than my phone, but i barley ever go out/use my canon - so its tricky. anyway...today i went to meadowhall with joe. we made tits of outselves by buying a cinema ticket to see "ice age three dawn of the dinosaurs in 3D" but not knowing we bought the ticket for wednesday, and not today. joe got a refund and we basically walked around blowing each other in the face tbqh.

 

this picture doesn't have anything to do with what i just said above but i put it on cause it reflects back to prom the other day and how, actually it hasn't quite sunk in that school is over for good. i don't think it will, and actually the only time i would be upset about it is when i think back to years 7, 8 and 9. years 10 and 11 were just full of bitchyness and backstabbing, plus i prefered the old school before the new school was built.

 

thankyou for the balloon joe btw (:

(he stole this balloon 'cause i wanted it, from the hotel at prom just before we left)

Collegiate Church in Salzburg

The Collegiate Church in Salzburg is the University Church and dates from the Baroque period. It is located at University Square. The church is a listed building and belongs to UNESCO World Heritage Historic Site Centre of the city of Salzburg.

History

Facade, stitch around 1712

Already Prince Archbishop Paris of Lodron planned to build this private Roman Catholic University of Salzburg church on the basis of the former women's garden. It should take more than 70 years until the new church by the architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach was completed and was inaugurated in 1707 in honor of the Immaculate Virgin Mary. This provoked once among the citizens of the city some kind of mockeries. Until the construction of the Collegiate Church served the Great hall of the university (in addition to the small chapel Saecellum) not only as a theater hall, but also as a temporary sacred space for the church services of the University. Also Guidobald von Thun and Max Gandolf von Kuenburg could not fulfill the promise of the church building. Only Prince Archbishop Johann Ernst von Thun against some resistances put the church building into practice. Especially Joseph of Kuenburg put up a fight because in his opinion, as a result, his Kuenburgscher Langenhof at Kirchgasse (now Sigmund-Haffner-Gasse ) would be affected negatively.

During the period of occupation by Napoleon and the French troops, the Collegiate Church demonstratively served as a military hayloft. After the dissolution of the University it became a garrison church in the time of the monarchy. In 1922 as part of the Salzburg Festival for the first time here in the church took place the Great Salzburg World Theatre by Hugo von Hofmannsthal. The Collegiate Church is still a venue for the Salzburg Festival.

Since 1964, the Collegiate Church is again the University Church. 18 May 2008 it was awarded the rank of a University parish (university community Salzburg), as a personal parish. Pastor is Erwin Neumayer (2012).

A general renovation of this old church became badly needed. The first restored chapel was that of St. Ivo. 2010, the apse was finished, and at the end of 2013 the general renovation is completed.

Architecture

A side altar and the high central dome

The church is now the most important church building of the city of Salzburg apart from the cathedral, a masterpiece of Baroque architect Fischer von Erlach and a church building of international standing.

Fischer von Erlach here had in favor of the perceptibility of the entire building and its architecture the design of the detailling decorative elements - even by the execution of the church interior in white uniform color without painting - receded. The church was the model for many late-Baroque churches in southern Germany.

The church has three parts: the magnificent spectacle in the east façade, the main house and the slopingly stepped attachments in the West. The towers have in this church no spire anymore, they dissolve rather upwards rangy in by allegorical figures crowned balustrades. The figures on the left (south) represend the four archangels (Michael, Gabriel, Raphael and Uriel), and the right (north), the four late antique church fathers (Augustine, Ambrose, Jerome, and Gregory the Great). In addition, as a crowning of the main facade angels are to see. The figure of Saint Mary Immaculate on a crescent moon crowns the center of the building. All these figures are from Bernhard Michael Mandl.

Window

The large windows of the facade open the building to the outside and dissolve the gravity of the central facade front. The delicate window ornament stems from Diego Francesco Carlone and Paolo d' Allio, who designed together with Fischer von Erlach also the wall structure in the church in detail.

Chapels

The church is inside vaulted with a towering barrel vault in a cross shape with colossal pilasters and a central tambour dome the building being unified by the four high main chapels to a central building. These into the church building integrated open chapels with their altars characterize so beside the main altar the inside of the church the chapels being dedicated to the four faculty saints.

Thomas Aquinas: Theology

Ivo: Law

Luke: Medical

Catherine: Philosophy

The left and the right transept altar is configured with an altarpiece each of them by Michael Rottmayr.

High altar

The high altar, designed by Father Bernard Stuart and executed by Josef Anton Pfaffinger dissolves in stucco figures to the top. It repeats the main motives of the Church and continues them. In front of the columns stand allegorical figures of music, poetry, painting, and architecture, as well as of the four faculties. Above hover love and hope, inspired by the faith. At the height of the cornice stand seven archangels here. As the highest closing of the chorus appears from clouds and rays encircled - as it were celestiale - Mary Immaculate .

In the niches of the nave were until 2012 20 stone statues of Johann Piger (1905-1912), they are now in the oratorios, not visible from below, preserved.

Organ

Look at the organ loft

The organ was built in the years 1866-1868 by I. Matthew Mauracher. The instrument has 34 registers on three manuals and pedal, where the II and III. manuala stand in a common swellbox.

Anton Bruckner must have appreciated this instrument. In the winter of 1869, he performed on it some fugues, in that strictly held form corresponding to the reputation he already received in the same year in Nancy and Paris as a great contraputist which has its connection to Beethoven. The following year, he delighted several music lovers through an interesting production on the beautiful organ in the Church of the Colleges.

This monument is located in the Piazzo Dante in the center of the ancient Tuscan city, Grosseto, Italy. Dedicated to Grand Duke Leopold II of Lorraine (nicknamed Canapone by Grossetana) the white marble sculpture was built by Luigi Magi. Its current location in the heart of the city dates back to the spring of 1846.

Exhibition Dates: January 15 – 28, 2021 in the Artlab Gallery and virtually

 

Every few years, the Artlab Gallery at Western University hosts a Faculty and Staff exhibition. These exhibitions are important opportunities for fostering a sense of community in the Visual Arts Department: students are able to see their instructors and mentors at work, and colleagues have a chance to share in each other's research. 2020 was a year like no other, and so the Artlab is leaning into the present with a collective address to this moment of separate togetherness. "Distance makes the heart grow weak" invites faculty, staff and graduate students to speak to how they've been experiencing the last year. It prompts participants to explore and express how isolation has shifted our focus, our research and art practices, as well as our forms of connecting with one another. The exhibition is also an opportunity for participating artists and researchers to show flexibility (and inherently, optimism) despite the high strangeness we’re all currently experiencing. In this time of shared solitude—unable to walk down halls, knock on studio or office doors, and enjoy quick hellos and impromptu conversations—we'll quote Chris Kraus (quoting Søren Kierkegaard): "art involves reaching through some distance."

 

Organized by Dickson Bou and Ruth Skinner.

 

Participants: Cody Barteet; Sarah Bassnett; Dickson Bou with Charlie Egleston & Peter Lebel; Matt W. Brown; Andreas Buchwaldt; Brianne Casey; Jérôme Conquy with Kevin Heslop, Sachiko Murakami, Sile Englert & Ruth Douthwright; Ioana Dragomir; Meghan Edmiston; Soheila Esfahani; Sky Glabush; Anahí González; Philip Gurrey; John Hatch; Tricia Johnson; Iraboty Kazi; Shelley Kopp; Anna Madelska; Patrick Mahon; Jennifer Martin; Linda Meloche; David Merritt; Ana Moyer; Dong-Kyoon Nam; Kim Neudorf; Katie Oates; Sasha Opeiko with Martin Stevens; Michelle Paterok; Kirsty Robertson; Geordie Shepherd; Andrew Silk; Ashley Snook; Christine Sprengler; Michelle Wilson with Bridget Koza,Sophie Wu, & Azadeh Odlins; Jessica Woodward

 

The promotional graphic for "Distance makes the heart grow weak" cites the short film, "Extraordinary Measures," by Sasha Opeiko and Martin Stevens, featured in the exhibition.

 

Given Ontario's recent stay-at-home order, the exhibition will be released in a virtual format on Friday, January 15th. Throughout the course of the exhibition, Artlab will publish short video features from participating artists and researchers.

Higbee's dates back to 1860. For many years, its flagship was located across the street from Halle Brothers near Playhouse Square. The Van Sweringen brothers purchased it in 1929 and moved it to their new Cleveland Union Terminal (now Tower City) that opened in 1928 which is on the National Register #76001405. HIgbee's was acquired by Dillard's in 1987 and was rebranded as such in 1992. They closed the downtown flagship in 2002. The building was adaptively reused into office space and now houses a casino on the first three floors.

Yes, these are semi-ripened dates, probably the Barhee variety, at their crispy and crunchy but already edible stage.

 

They are a great energy snack for their natural sugar content and they are an excellent source for potassium,Vitamin B, calcium and magnesium.

Muse - Dig Down

Muse are an English rock band from Teignmouth, Devon, formed in 1994. The band consists of Matt Bellamy (lead vocals, guitar, piano, keyboards), Chris Wolstenholme (bass guitar, backing vocals, keyboards) and Dominic Howard (drums, percussion).

Muse released their debut album, Showbiz, in 1999, showcasing Bellamy's falsetto and a melancholic alternative rock style. Their second album, Origin of Symmetry (2001), expanded their sound, incorporating wider instrumentation and romantic classical influences, and earned them a reputation for energetic live performances. Absolution (2003) saw further classical influence, with orchestra on tracks such as "Butterflies and Hurricanes", and became the first of five consecutive UK number-one albums. The album has a noticeably darker and heavier tone musically, with a lyrical focus on the theological and apocalyptic concepts.

Superman/Thundercats

By Mark Allen

The evil Mumm-Ra has ever striven to aquire the powerful Eye of Thundera. Now, he has made a pact and secured a trade with an exile from another dimension; his protection for the Orbs of Barrak, talismans which will allow him to travel to other dimensions. Particularly, one which holds a twin to the Eye; modern-day Earth. And, as this is a Superman cross-over, where else would the Eye be, but in a Metropolis museum?

And so begins a high-action tale that may well appeal to the child in many of us; it appealed to mine, anyway. A long-time Superman fan, and an avid viewer of the Thundercats series in the '80's, Superman/Thundercats scratched an itch I never even realized was there; primarily, seeing Superman (with his vulnerability to magic) go head-to-head with Mumm-Ra. Of course, as the Thundercats pull off their own reality-hop to Metropolis, being perceived as a crew of invading aliens, readers also get to see Supes throw down with everyone's favorite feline aliens.

What more could a fanboy (or girl) want? Kudos to writer Judd Winick for producing a fun story, and preserving the personalities of all characters involved. Props also go to artists Ale Garza (pencils) and Trevor Scott (inks) for a dramatic, dynamic style, slightly manga-influenced, but also with an attention to detail. Perfect for the Thundercat characters, as anyone familiar with the series knows.

This is one of those comic projects that, in my opinion, has the cross-over appeal that comics so dearly need, today. If well-hyped and sold outside the specialty market, a lot of people who don't normally read comics could be reminded why they enjoyed them as children. Who knows? Maybe DC (the owners of Wildstorm) will reprint this project, releasing it through Wal-marts, Quick-Trips, Toys-R-Us stores, etc. Hey, a comic fan can dream, right?

Recommended for all ages. Find it at comic shops, conventions and online auctions.

“Dates of Photos and Events:

8 November-15 November 2022.

 

We celebrated Home of the Brave all week at the Beckley VAMC. We visited the CLC one day, and the inpatient floor all week long, so we were able to gift new admits with a tee shirt, cinch sack, socks, word search book and hygiene kits. I also visited the two different groups of Adult Day Care residents and gifted them with the cinch sacks and goodies as well as doughnuts. Besides gifted them with the bags, I was able to sit and visit with the Day Care residents for awhile. It was two very good mornings. On the 10th, we started the morning by celebrating the Marine Corps birthday, and had cake for any outpatient veteran

in the hospital/clinic area. We then served Nachos, pop and water to any veteran as they left the hospital/clinic. Today (15 November), we ended up celebrating Home of the Brave by celebrating the Female Veterans who had or is having a baby in 2022. We gifted 8 moms with Mary Kay items, clothing, diapers, and a "big" item that they needed. It was a cold rainy outside baby shower but lots of warm wishes and feelings abounded.”

 

-Jacquelyn Goike - Wright

 

I had a veteran tell me on Tuesday his birthday was Thursday and all he wanted was a Diet Coke. We delivered that and much more. He started crying on his 87th birthday. Told me he wasn't crying cause he was sad, he was crying cause "we remembered him, and he is blessed"

One of the most important parts of fasting is getting the right amount of energy, and dates are one of the perfect foods to give you a boost since they contain 31 carbohydrates. Dates are also a great source of fiber, which improves digestion. Due to the high amount of nutrients in dates, they are easily the healthiest fruits for this holy month of fasting.

Opening Reception: Friday, June 24, 2016, 5pm - 7pm“Chemical Addiction – Exemplary Ceramic Surfaces from the Rosenfield Collection”

 

This exhibition, curated by visiting artist George Bowes with Louise Rosenfield celebrates the vast collection of contemporary ceramics amassed by David and Louise Rosenfield of Dallas, Texas. Through their generosity, a selection of work featuring dynamic glaze surfaces and surface techniques will be featured in the gallery. This exhibition was conceived to serve as a study collection to enhance participants' experience in the workshop “Ceramic Surfaces for the Visual Artist” facilitated by George Bowes. For this collection to be shared with the public is a unique opportunity to appreciate the artistry of some of the most talented voices in contemporary ceramic art today.

 

Artists featured in the exhibition: Mary Barringer, Peter Beasecker, Joan Bruneau, William Brouillard, Rebecca Chappell, Andrea Denniston, Deidre Daw, David Eichelberger, John Gill, Jim Gottuso, Daphne Hatcher, Michael Hunt/Naomi Dalglish, Matt Hyleck, Sarah Jaeger, Gail Kendall, Kirk Mangus, Andrew Martin, Jeffrey Nichols, Sean O'Connell, Mark Pharis, Judith Salomon, Yoko Sekino-Bove, Kari Smith, Holly Walker, Adero Willard, gwendolyn yoppolo.

"Polyfunctional | George Bowes"

 

polyfunctional, (english) Adjective

 

(chemistry) Having multiple different or same functional groups in the same compound

This exhibition features unique pieces or grouping of objects that can serve multiple functions when their directional orientation is changed. In one example a fruit bowl when reversed can be a fruit podium. When a water reserve is placed below the form it becomes a flower brick. When the water reserve is reversed it becomes a cheese plate and when placed in side the fruit bowl it becomes a cracker basket.

 

As diverse as the functions of the works so are the materials. Forms are rendered in Cone 10 Porcelain, Cone 10 Stoneware, Cone 6 Porcelain and Cone 04 Red Earthenware. They are fired in a wood kiln, reduction and oxidation atmospheres. Observing what happens in each temperature and atmospheric conditions, connections have been made to unify the varying surface techniques and processes.

 

Artist Bio

George Bowes was born in 1961 in Toledo, Ohio and lives in Galveston, Texas. He graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art (BFA, 1984) and the University of California, Davis, (MFA 2001). He has received multiple Individual Artist Fellowships from the Ohio Arts Council and an Arts Midwest / NEA Regional Visual Arts Fellowship Award. His works reside in public and private collections that include the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institute, Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, and the Joseph Schein International Museum of Ceramic Art. George imbues both functional vessels and sculptural objects with bold pronouncements on the many ironies of humanity, society and politics. Occasionally biting, endlessly quick-witted, the sentiments always elicit lively reactions. His distinctive use of bold color and vivid pattern on vessels for home use speak of his ideas of beauty and vitality and live as a refreshing island in the landscape of functional art.
