CABARET LIFE NYC: The Power of the 'Pan' and Catch-Up Show Reviews from a Long Cabaret Winter
by Stephen Hanks - May 12, 2014
If you are even a semi-regular reader of this column of reviews, you know that about every three or four months, I post a compilation of observations of shows from the previous quarter of the year. This cabaret critiquing mash up happens for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that I admittedly see too many cabaret shows for the amount of time I have to promptly review them (and then, of course, the usual writer's procrastination sets in). So I have to prioritize the timeliness of the reviews based on the prestige of the performer, the length of a show run, the strength (or lack thereof) of the performance, etc. The quality of the shows in these compilations�which can range from a half dozen to a dozen reviews in one shot�are usually a mixed bag of outright raves, qualified positives, and constructive pans (I'm not a fan of the word �negative� in the reviewer lexicon). With that in mind here are a collection of cabaret show reviews going back to the start of a very harsh winter. (more...)

Many copy editors around the world, particularly in the USA, still appear to believe that the split infinitive is some kind of grammatical sin (despite what nearly all the quality handbooks of grammar and style actually say), so it may be useful to provide some additional commentary here.
As we say in the book (p. 211), there are still some prescriptive grammar books around that warn against what they call the 'split infinitive'. They mean the construction illustrated in to really succeed, where an adjunct (really) comes between the infinitival marker to and the plain form verb that is the head of the infinitival clause.
But the term 'split infinitive' is very misleading. English doesn't have an infinitive form of the verb in the way a language like French does. French succéder is a single word, but English to succeed is not; it's two words, one a subordinator (to) and the other a verb (the plain form of the lexeme succeed) which is the head of a verb phrase. Verb phrases often begin with the head verb (as in the imperative Be careful!), but they can also begin with an adjunct such as an adverb (as in the imperative Really be careful!). No rule of English grammar requires that a verb phrase preceded by infinitival to must begin with its head verb — that it cannot begin with an adverb. And if you can begin a verb phrase with an adverb and mark it with to, you get phrases like to really succeed:
VP / \ / \ Sub VP | / \ | / \ | Adv VP to | | | | really succeed
All the good usage manuals and scholarly grammars now recognise that phrases of this sort have occurred in English since its earliest history. They generally note that in many cases placing an adjunct between to and the verb is stylistically preferable to other orderings.
For example, there are over 650,000 occurrences of sentences on the web containing the sequence to at least try, as in The employer intended to at least try to explore possible reasonable accommodations for coping with disabled employees. They mostly change meaning or become ungrammatical if at least is shifted to a different position. Intended at least to... sounds as if it means at least intending, possibly more than intending; at least to explore sounds as if it means at least explore, possibly more than explore; if the intended meaning is about at least trying, and possibly more than just trying, the best order of words, without question, is the one that puts at least in between to and try.)
A few writers have remarked that in certain cases it is impossible to avoid placing the adjunct in that position (see this Language Log post by Arnold Zwicky for a discussion of modifiers in infinitives that must separate the to from the verb).
Yet it is still quite common to encounter people who insist that a 'split infinitive' is a grammatical error. There is no clear support for that in any grammar that we are aware of: even quite conservative grammar and usage books agree on this.
It may be that citing evidence is useless, since the sort of people who insist on the ungrammaticality of split infinitives would not be convinced by any amount of evidence; but huge numbers of examples of split infinitives can be found in uncontroversially respectable and widely admired literature. Here are a few, from a couple of writers that nobody regards as ignorant or inexpert, who were writing at the end of the 19th century when so many 20th-century prescriptive grammarians were growing up and becoming acquainted with literature. In each example we underline the verb that is separated by a modifier from the preceding to, and we put brackets round the VP of which that verb is the head.
1. From The Red Badge of Courage, by Steven Crane (1895), about the American civil war:
He tried to [mathematically prove to himself that he would not run from a battle].
He began to [blithely roar at his staff: "We'll wallop 'im now..."]
The youth had a thought that it would not be handsome for him to [freely condemn other men].
He waited as if he expected the enemy to [suddenly stop, apologize, and retire bowing].
2. From Dracula, the superb Victorian epistolary horror novel by Bram Stoker (1897):
I knocked gently and rang as quietly as possible, for I feared to disturb Lucy or her mother, and hoped to [only bring a servant to the door].
I said to him, "Go to Dr. Van Helsing, and ask him to [kindly come here at once].
And so we proceeded to [minutely examine them].
So well as I can remember, here it is: "I have studied, over and over again since they came into my hands, all the papers relating to this monster, and the more I have studied, the greater seems the necessity to [utterly stamp him out].
He seems to have power at these particular moments to [simply will], and her thoughts obey him.
(In that last example the verb will is not the modal verb but the ordinary lexical verb meaning something like "wish" or "exercise volition".)
For hundreds and hundreds more to set beside these eight (we simply lack the time and motivation to type them out) see George O. Curme's standard reference work Syntax (Boston: D. C. Heath and Co., 1931), section 49 2 c, especially pages 461-465.

For some time now I have thought Shakespeare was overrated. It's not that I thought he was terrible, just overrated. But I at least had the humility to defer to people like Joseph Sobran whom I greatly respect; as with poetry, I conceded that I "just don't get it."
But now that we've watched Merchant of Venice with an absolutely fantastic performance by Al Pacino as Shylock, I get it. Shakespeare is the man.
(Incidentally, for an-cap theorists who haven't dabbled in the finer things, there are some extremely interesting legal/economic issues in this play.)

text: I enjoyed Steve Almond's essay, "Our Separate Ways" (Connections, November 4). Mine is perhaps an inverse of Almond's situation, where most of my friends are Republicans and/or conservative but I, also a Republican, feel out of place among them. Seems the only place in the party these days is for hard-liners, particularly on the social-issues front. I get my Republicanism from Abraham Lincoln, Susan B. Anthony, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and the classic fiscal conservative/social progressives of days apparently gone by. I've attended the last two Massachusetts Republican conventions and could not help but feel I was among Southern Democrats/Confederates. Ronald Reagan said about his leaving the Democratic Party that to him it felt as though the party left him. I can't help but feel that the Republican Party is leaving not only me but also itself. I'll not become a Democrat, but I'll be casting off party affiliation. The founders preferred that anyway.

Friends of Bui will now be focusing its online efforts on www.friendsofbui.com. Please share with your friends, family, and colleagues!
Friends of Bui has been granted incorporation as a non-profit Society by the Province of British Columbia. Our Board of Directors is announced as follows:
President - Devin Tepleski
Vice President - Sophia MacKenzie
Treasurer - Adam Asa Finch
Secretary - Dr. Ann Stahl
Research Coordinator - Joshua Hazelbower
In other news, the Hearst 8x10 Biennial, where ten of the 'Sena' prints are currently hanging, has been a huge success. Many thanks to John Bennette and the wonderful team at Hearst who has made it possible. The sales from the 8x10 have already more than doubled the total earned previously.
A video of Sena at the Hearst 8x10 opening can be found here.
To celebrate all this great news I've prepared one of our biggest posts yet, a journalistic piece about the effect of the dam. See above!
Hello Friends of Bui,
It has been awhile since I posted and an update is long overdue.
First off, I want to send out a thank you to David Pollock from Prism Imaging, and Diana Millar and Quinton Gordon at Lúz Gallery in Victoria, BC. The Victoria exhibition of the 'Sena' portraits was a huge success and over $1500 were raised! A big thanks to all those that supported the show through purchase or donation.
Hopefully the success of the Victoria show is a sign of good things to come. I am currently in New York City visiting with a close friend and will be meeting with some people to discuss showing Sena in NYC in the coming weeks. The shots were accepted as a winner in the upcoming 2011 Hearst Biennial at the Alexey Brodovitch Gallery in Hearst Tower.
The Hearst Biennial only adds to the growing list:
Flash Forward 2010, Honorable Mention. 2010 International Photography Awards, 1st Place, Non-Pro, Portrait2010 International Photography Awards, 1st In Category, Non-Pro, People2010 International Photography Awards, Nominee, 2010 Discovery of the Year (Results pending)2010 Photolucida Critical Mass, Finalist (Results pending)Hearst 2011 Photography Biennial, Winner
Last but not least, the album 'Banda Music' is complete. The field recordings I made in Ghana feature a mix of local traditional and contemporary music. Like the photos, all proceeds after costs go to Friends of Bui projects. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of the CD there are a few available at Lúz in Victoria. I will hopefully organize an online ordering system when I return home and am currently looking into getting it on the ITunes store and Bandcamp.
Thanks again to all those who have helped out so far.
Devin Tepleski
President of Friends of Bui
In light of the upcoming fundraising event Sena at Lúz Gallery (www.luzgallery.com) you are probably wondering where the proceeds are going. The answer, in a large part, depends on how much is raised. The Banda Research Project Director, Dr. Ann Stahl, and I met with the soon to be flooded communities on numerous occasions to discuss what they would like to see. Below is a list of their priorities. Not all will be met, but we hope to do as much as we can.
If you cannot make it out to the fundraiser in Victoria, Canada, consider purchasing a print online at: http://luzgallery.bigcartel.com/
ALTERNATIVE AGRICULTUREMany of the communities like Bui village are made up primarily of subsistence farmers. Their way of life relies on communal lands with large plots they rotate annually to preserve soil quality. With smaller fee simple property they are afraid that they will not be able to grow enough food and would like to learn how to implement alternative methods and new types of agriculture all together. Upon our final meeting they discussed their desire to produce higher market value items such as chicken and grasscutter, a rodent considered a delicacy across the country. EDUCATIONEducation is paramount for both the young and old. The promise of new grade schools for the region excites many. As great as these promises may be, the transition period is worrisome. The upheaval of peoples from established ways of life will put a further burden on families, many which have a difficult time paying school fees already. On top of that many from the Ewe ethnic group are from a long lineage of fisherman. They have been told they will not be near the river at their new village site. Training will be required to find them work whether it is in farming, trades, or any other profession.SHEA AND SOAPWomen in the effected villages fear what will happen when their shea trees are flooded. Shea is a wild resource and as such completely neglected by the government's compensation package. Shea butter, a product derived from the trees nuts, is used as the main hygienic product and a major source of supplementary income. Much of the money the women make selling shea butter at market helps put their children through school. The new location will likely be in an area where wild resources will already be claimed. They would like to find an alternative such as soap. FRESH WATER FOR GBLAKAMEThe town of Gblakame is not being displaced; they are downstream from the dam. This does not mean that they are free from its devastating effects. Raw sewage, industrial waste, and blasting sediment are making the community incredibly ill. However, since they are downstream from the dam the government refuses to compensate them at all. They have requested a bore-hole well be drilled to provide them with fresh drinking water to no avail. COMMUNITY BUILDINGThe new village site is rumored to place many existing villages on one site. If this occurs many different ethnic groups with different first languages will be placed on smaller individual plots of land with limited access to resources. Workshops could help provide an open dialogue and strengthen the new community.Thank you for your consideration.
For those of you who do not know, the first fundraiser for Friends of Bui is fast approaching. It is called Sena, a portrait series of Bui Villagers standing in the river that will flood their homes. It starts this Thursday, July 29th at Lúz Gallery's new location at 1844 Oak Bay Ave., Victoria, BC. It will be running until August 28th. It would be great if you could make it to the opening reception on July 29th from 7-9pm. More info about the show can be found at: http://www.luzgallery.com/ If you can't make it to the show you can also show your support by purchasing a print online at: http://luzgallery.bigcartel.com/Also, a minor bit of news, we finally have a logo! It is a negative of one of the images in the show with a notch missing from the corner like you would find on sheets of film. It kind of goes with the whole photographic media theme and it happens to look pretty cool too!I hope to see you at the opening. - Devin Tepleski
Friends of the Bui WatershedNewsletter #103/01/10Hello everybody!Thank you for signing up for the 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' newsletter. In this first newsletter I will cover the basics of what is happening in the area around Bui Hydroelectric Dam and tell you what 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' is all about. I was originally sent to Ghana by UVIC's Anthropology Department to provide video documentation of a number of communities being relocated by the Bui Hydroelectric Dam and provide support on some archaeological excavations in the area. It was the intention that the video would be used for local historical purposes as well as to enable the voices of the people to be heard by local and national governments in the country. Frankly, the news of the dam has had little reach in the major urban centers of Ghana, let alone the rest of the world. The people in the soon to be flooded area know even less. The general lack of transparency in all dealings surrounding the dam construction is frightening. After spending many months there it became clear that none of the villagers know anything about their relocation beyond some vague, but nonetheless scary details:
1) They won't be located near the river, a major part of their economic and spiritual landscape for centuries.2) The new village site will likely house a number of the relocated villages including those that do not speak the same first language and are of different ethnic groups.3) The people will be forced to accept new models of property ownership (They will no longer have communal lands and will instead be given much smaller fee simple plots that will likely be divided generationally).4) Along with new forms of property ownership they are being encouraged to cease rotational farming practices and instead begin using expensive and dangerous chemical fertilizers. 5) The appeal process was not implemented in a legal manner. The letter informing them of the appeal process arrived six months past the date for appeal and was written in a language they could not read. 6) Many younger generations will be left without property. There was a building ban in place for years. Many young people who had the resources to build their own home and start families were told they couldn't build. When the relocation strategists came along (a third party firm from Britain) they only planned to compensate the houses standing there already. Houses equals access to property title at the new site. Without homes many of these young people will have no land to grow food.
The government's relocation strategy is shaping up to be a disaster.Other villages downstream from the dam are not being relocated and face their own unique problems. They confront increasing health risks due to environmental contamination. The Ewe village of Gblakame is the first village downstream from the dam. Its citizens have been suffering from chronic diarrhea, dysentry, and other illnesses since the construction began. This is likely due to the poisoning of the water with industrial contaminants as well as raw sewage waste from immigrant labor camps at the dam site. Not only is this hurting the people on a direct level, it is also killing their main supply of food and income: fish. During my interviews, many in the village recalled an event in which the children of the village came back from playing in the river. They informed the adults in the community that hundreds of fish were floating on the surface of the river. A young man and father of six described the sensational events that followed:
"Because of the scarcity of the fish at the time the adults went down to the river with their boats. We went down to gather them. We hoped we'd at least find something we could use. When we were on the river picking up the fish from the surface the police arrived. They claimed that we were the people that poisoned the river as a way to illegally catch the fish. They said it was us and they took our canoes away. It was due to the poisoning that we no longer have our canoes. Yes, the river is not the same."
The people of Gblakame are just scraping by. Half of the community's canoes were confiscated and the cost of replacement for each canoe is nearly a year's salary. They live without access to clean water and face increasing economic difficulties. One of the first goals of 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' is to raise enough funds to provide the town with a clean source of drinking water. 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' has taken a diverse approach to documentary. While in Ghana I tried to branch out and cover as much ground as possible though different media. I recorded many local songs, which with the permission of the musicians will be included on an album that is nearly mixed. The disc and digital release will be used to raise funds for a number of local causes like a drinking well for Gblakame. After finishing shooting for the video project I returned to complete a series of portraits of the people of Bui standing in the river that has been such an important feature of their lives for generations. The series is called 'Sena', which is the local Nafaanra word for 'Where'. The next newsletter will focus more on the different media projects, so stay tuned. The primary goal of 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' is to raise awareness through the distribution of its media products. It is not a forum to sensationalize the issues. It seeks to further engagement with partners in Ghana. We have come to terms with the Ghanaian government decision to build this dam. It is the way the relocation and compensation is being handled that we wish to change. The Ghanaian government has constantly stated that the human costs of this dam are small. In comparison to other dam projects this is true. Ghana's Akosombo Dam flooded out an area the size of the Lebanon. There are estimates that upwards of 80000 people were displaced. Bui will relocate approximately 2700. In light of all the devastation hydroelectic projects have caused around the world, the human costs of Bui are manageable. It is all the more reason for the Ghanaian government to provide a relocation process that will give the communities of the Bui Watershed a chance at participation, a chance to be part of the new economy they are being forced into. The second goal of 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' is to raise funds when appropriate. Many of the media products we produce will be used to raise money for various local causes. Potential causes include the previously mentioned well for Gblakame. There has also been some discussion around educational programs. Many community members discussed the possibility of soap making workshops for women who will no longer have access to their shea trees, a wild plant resource that grew in the area that will be flooded. The options are open when it comes to fund raising, but ultimately all decisions will be decided upon by members of the affected communities.The third and final goal of 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' is to provide an open forum for media artists, journalists, and researchers who are interested in the potential of social documentary as a catalyst of change. It is a place to share ideas and ask questions. In the months to come we will be seeking volunteers who are interested in helping out. One of the original goals of the project was to create an environment for direct collaboration between 'Friends of the Bui Watershed' and the people of the Bui area. This hasn't been forgotten. Ideally we will get to a point where this could be a possibility. I'm sure that is more than enough for now. Please feel free to ask me any questions at firstname.lastname@example.com. Also, check out the new blog when you get a chance. It can be found at http://friendsofbui.tumblr.com/ and will act as the main web presence for 'Friend of the Bui Watershed' until I can figure out how to program a website.
Thank you very much,

Some of Halle Berry's "New Year's Eve" money will be going to baby daddy Gabriel Aubry, because a judge has just ordered the actress to shell out nearly a quarter of a million bucks a year in child support.
Lawyers for Halle and Gabriel were in court Monday, and sources connected with Gabriel tell TMZ ... the family law judge ordered Halle to pay Nahla's daddy $20,000 a month.
Although Nahla is 4, until Monday there was never a child support order issued by a judge, but now one is in place.
We're told both sides are still at war, and they will soon be battling in court over whether Halle can take Nahla and move to Paris.
$(- -)$
$(- -)%$
- -
Good for you Aubry!!! I think Halle might have been a handful
Berry should be in prison for killing a person in her car "accident". She is no good. Pay up beeeaaach!
tit for tat, if the man had the money he would be forced to pay. she obtviously has the money and it is for her daughter to maintain the lifestyle she established. shut up halle, run off with that creepy new boyfriend of yours, and try to make some changes in your life regarding men. oh yeah, i am a woman!
About time. What's good for the goose is good for the gander!
Damn this guy is a deadbeat and a gold digger just like K-Fred.
Repercussions of feminism.
Feminists bureaucrats and profiteers including Natn'l Org for Women and the American Bar Assoc have created this system where fathers are regularly forced to pay excessive child support beyond the children's needs and wants....while all of the above get their cut of the money.
What comes around goes around, now women are starting to feel the repercussions of feminist intervention in the family unit through the court systems.
Feminism has always been a narcissistic movement, encouraging selfishness and me-first attitudes in women...never with the goal of helping women.
The goal is to profit off of the taxpayers in the billion$ by convincing those taxpayers that women are perpetual victims of men...(chuckle chuckle laugh laugh)...and that a "real man" and "any woman who wants equality"...should vote for or support any laws, bills or petitions that require taxpayers to give more of their money to feminist bureaucrats and orgs to line their pockets and finance their maid and butler lifestyles.
But grown men and women aren't the main victims of this racket.
Innocent little kids are the biggest victims, treated like ragdolls being pulled back and forth and up and down by every interested greedy party involved as they're dragged through the court systems and forced into unstable custody and visitation situations and don't know where "home" is anymore.
First, I seriously doubt many women are paying their child's father a quarter of a million in support per year because unlike Halle many wealthy women would never date or have a baby with a man who is not on their social economic level. However, the very good thing is Nahla will grow up knowing that her mother provided for her and (her father.) Children love parents who provide for them. Aubry no longer has to worry about money and he is now free to support more children and a poorer woman off Nahla's child support (that he benefits from.) Aubry is probably happy because he is a kept man who is getting paid to to be the father or a wealthy woman's child. Most men, unlike women do not aspire to be "kept" but if that's all you can be so be it.. Hopefully now that Aubry is getting paid for donating his sperm he will not need to reduce the mother of his child to beginning a bitc*, nigg**, whor*, trash or crazy [in his daughter's presence.]
**** let women pay too good one my man
Deadbeat daddies to deadbeat mowood crackho's.... don't these people just sicken you all with their train wreck lives with all the luck and gifts they've been given I wouldn't whizzz on half of them if they were on fire.... ; (
$20,000 and then the nanny will be paid minimum.
Halle you wanted a baby by a white guy and I hope that it was worth every penny that you are going to have to pay, UNDER NO CIR***STANCE would you have had to pay ONE PENNY to a black man for child support!!! Ridiculous, but it is what it is!!!!!!!

Birthday: March 10, 1984
Hometown: New York, N.Y.
Where You've Seen Her: Olivia's been causing heatstroke among our numbers for years, what with smoking turns on TV shows like The O.C. and House, as well as films such as Alpha Dog, Year One and the upcoming Tron: Legacy. This Friday you can catch her making Russell Crowe sweat in The Next Three Days. (At least, we're pretty sure it's her and not all those pork chop sandwiches.)
Hey, WE'RE Proud of Her: "[My Year One character is] the princess of Sodom, which is a great thing to tell Mom and Dad. 'Who are you playing this time, sweetie?' 'I'm the princess of Sodom!' My poor parents." —Maxim

There are just so many things to consider when you are planning to remodel or renovate your kitchen. The walls, the flooring, the countertops, the appliances, where to buy them, if to buy them, whether or not to go eco-friendly the list goes on and on. One of the aspects of kitchen remodeling that is actually very important, so important in fact that the kitchen will not function properly without them, are the hinges, handles and knobs. These small items that no one really pays any attention to, unless something won't open or falls off, tend to fly under the radar when all the renovating is being done. Truth is in many circumstances these small items can be actually very elegant and classy in accenting a newly remodeled kitchen.
There are so many different styles to choose from today. From the shiny brass to the darker traditional brass or the bronze, copper metals with their variety of shades. Plain or stainless steel are good options. The enameled paint colors, ceramic and even stone. After choosing the type of material for the hinge, handle or knob now you have the infinite selection of choosing the style or design. The styles can include standard, antique, floral, modern, classical, futuristic, gothic, fantasy, or even the fancy little lion's head with the ring in his mouth. Some homeowners go for a different feel all together and replace the knobs and handles with cord, small pieces of rope or chain. The options and combinations are endless.
A few things to bear in mind when choosing these articles concern their upkeep. People don't often think of these little pieces when the weekly or monthly cleaning chore list is being made out. Consider how easy it will be to polish these pieces if that is the type chosen or simply to clean them at any rate. If these are going in a family home think about how well the hinges and knobs will deal with little hands that are none to gentle with them. If it comes to replacing them how easily can matching pieces be found. Some cabinet hardware when installed can leave marks, indentations and screw holes to show where they were placed, bear that in mind when the time comes to change them out for a different style altogether. When it comes to these little pieces that actually do so much for the kitchen paying attention to the little details could save some problems down the line.

For the 2013/2014 season, RETROSUPERFUTURE has developed three new precious finishings for its signature acetate frames, matched with blissful WeSC temple detailing and three different hues of unbearably resilient lenses.

really nice flavor, i use it on chicken, in sandwiches as a spread, in sauces and just as a chutney. extremely easy to make, i found that i needed to cook it on the stove top for an hour to achieve that nice golden color, thick texture, and deep flavor.
