Michael Foot: Football Man
……Foot was not in any sense an elitist. A story is sometimes told of that austere socialist theoretician, GDH Cole. Informed in the 1930s by the future socialist chancellor Hugh Dalton that Labour could only hope to win power "with the support of the football crowds", Cole was reported simply to have "shuddered and turned away". Foot, a vocal supporter of Plymouth Argyle, with a corner of his heart reserved for Everton as well, was never near sharing Cole's fastidiousness. He passionately enjoyed going to football matches and, though he never aspired to rival Harold Wilson's facility for recalling match statistics, had a far greater knowledge of the game than the Prime Minister, whose invitations to join his government he held out against for nearly five years.
Here you can read the whole of Anthony Howard's wonderful essay on the late Michael Foot- and why we won't see his likes in British politics again.
And you can read more about Foot's love of football, and how supporters of his beloved Plymouth Argyle paid tribute to him at yesterday's match with Preston, here and here.
What a pity Plymouth Argyle never made it to the top flight of English football or won the FA Cup during Foot's lifetime.

Now that Hull have made it (though maybe not for long), I think Plymouth is the biggest city in England never to have been represented in the top flight.
I must say I've been upset by the way so many people have praised Foot since his death, now everything he stood for has been safely neutralised, when they would once have seen him as a Commie Enemy Within. Similarly, I saw an ad at the weekend for a CD by whichever colliery band (still so named long after the colliery's demise) which will be featured in 'A Band for Britain' on BBC2 tonight - clearly aimed squarely at the Daily Mail market - and I couldn't stop myself thinking "Where were you when those communities actually needed you? Cheering Thatcher on, I can bet."

Leonardo DiCaprio, the child actor who dies in Titanic because his girlfriend wouldn't share the raft, is having another run of bad luck. With slicked-back hair and an always-present glint in his eye reminiscent of Male Movie Stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood, Dr. D makes even Supermodels swoon. Meanwhile, most men simply look at him and secretly think, "I don't get it." Perhaps it is this confluence of opinion among the genders that has led to the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences to banish vaping from the upcoming 2016 Oscars.
(Courtesy of MoviePilot)
Yes, the Academy's President is a female, but apparently even Leo can't charm Ms. Cheryl Boone Isaacs into allowing such a potentially controversial act on national television. After all, vaping is bad…very, very bad. But if James Franco wants to host the Oscars while half-stoned out of his mind, that is perfectly acceptable.
It all began when DiCaprio was viewed vaping at the SAG awards just last week. As TMZ reports, the American Lung Association really calls him out for his deeply troubling conduct.
"Shame on you, Leo. Now give us your wrists so that we may slap them thusly."
Of course, just two years ago, we saw the likes of Leo and Ms. Julia-Louise Dreyfus from Seinfeld and Veep fame vaping away on cheap, old e-cigs. And to the average TV viewer, especially the kiddies, e-cigs look exactly like the real thing! Well, Julia lit up a Blu brand contraption, so the little blue light at the end made it kind of cute. And Julia is also very cute, in the eyes of the old white guys running the Hollywood establishment. So, Julia gets a pass...because she's so damned cute. But Leo? No way! He's already got all the money, all the fame, and all the girls. And the little snot-rag keeps getting nominated for an Oscar. Now he wants to vape eliquids in public, too? Nope! Leo is getting too cocky! It's time to smack him down a peg or two.

'Twas a good weekend. More to come.
Archive for March, 2008
Last.fm continues to do amazingly cool stuff in the realm of music metadata, one of my personal geek-out subjects.
This should be the headline in every newspaper today. [via shawn decker]
O'Reilly is again made to look like an idiot by a much smarter guest.

If this story is on the level, it's amazing. Inspiration, even!
Much more funny stuff over at Mediocre Films [via Wil Wheaton]
Netflix has been down all morning. Probably not a good thing.
Yahoo teams up with Indian supercomputer for cloud computing research | Webware : Cool Web apps for everyone"… a supercomputer owned by CRL that contains 28 terabytes of memory, 14,400 processors, 140 terabytes of disks, and a peak performance of 180 trillion calculations per second." WOA.
Nice overview. I think it's going to come down to finding the right balance between personal recommendations, social recommendations, and "expert" (DJ) recommendations, a tough formula to find.
I woke up on Saturday at 5:45am wondering whose bright idea it was that I should wake up on a weekend morning when it was still dark in order to run a 5k race in 35-degree temperatures with occasional sleet. I forced myself out of bed and even managed to eat a decent breakfast before heading out for this year's Stupid Little 5k, a race that indicates the start of the running season for me, since I tradionally slack way off during the winter. Even though I went six months without running and didn't break that streak until six days before the race, two runs last week turned out to be enough to prep me for the 5k.
I clocked in at 25:37, one second faster than my official 2006 finish. And, really, an ~8:15 pace isn't bad at all considering how out-of-shape I figured I was.
I also manage to snag the race's only cash prize: $15 for placing 25th overall. Woo-hoo! I even got a little trophy to go with it.
I currently hold the record for 30-year-olds and I think I may also have the record for 32-year-olds after this year. Of course, I should note that a 32-year-old had never run this race before, so I could have crawled the whole race and still snagged the record.
I placed second in my age group. Out of two.
At least one kid younger than 13 beat me by a mile (not literally). And at least one person over 60 did, too. He beat me by half a mile (literally).
What blew my mind was the guy who finished first in the 10-miler. Not only did he beat the 2nd place finisher by several minutes, he finished in a race-record 54:04, which is a 5:25/mile pace. That's insane.
The rest of the weekend was spent catching up with old friends (Alex, to be specific), entertaining guests, and dealing with a crazy ass 1 1/2-year-old that's sprouting way too many teeth at once.
Track your package on Google Maps. Nice.
Can never have too many timers, right?
For a while now–the last year, most earnestly–I've been trying to shift from a consumptive, disorganized, cluttered, and busy life to a simpler, more organized and productive life. I've become a regular reader of Lifehacker, Unclutterer, Zen Habits, and 43 Folders. I've read books like Refuse to Choose and Zen to Done. I've adopted a lot of new techniques and methods and have even made some progress toward my goals. Since friends like Paul and Bob have both posted about their productivity/organization setups, I thought I'd do the same thing.
Buckle up, folks. This could be a long one.
The Disclaimer
Of course, your mileage will (ain't no "may" about it) vary. Also, I've got a long way to go, so some of this may change in the coming months or years, but I'm starting to settle into a groove where I'm feeling comfortable. And that's why I figured it's time to write this all down.
I've got a scattered brain, due in part to my tendency to take on way more projects than I can handle. "Oh, yeah, sure, I can get a book together in a month, no problem!" is something you're likely to hear come out of my mouth any given day. One of the main reasons a lot of these projects go unfinished is that I have always followed the "I'll do whatever I feel like doing today" method, which will often end with me having watched an episode of Wife Swap, spontaneously baked a batch of cookies, and taken an impromptu nap, all without actually having made any progress on my projects.
So, I've been forcing myself to get better about keeping a to-do list. Over the past year, I've tried a ton of web-based solutions. Remember-the-Milk was good in concept, but just felt wrong. Tadalist was neat, but too simple. Tasks was thorough, but too complex. Simple text files worked well, but lacked some automated features I could use. After a while, I finally thought I found the perfect tool: Google Notebook (a use-anywhere, glorified text editor). I set aside a separate notebook for to-dos and created individual notes for different contexts: @home, @web, @book, @business. I'd add items as I thought of them and would highlight my to-dos for the day/weekend with one color and my secondary to-dos in another.
This worked pretty well, but grew kind of unwieldy and didn't offer any real sorting options. So, I'm now using Toodledo and have found it to be just the right balance of simplicity and functionality. I use the "priority" ranking to sort when I'm going to do stuff (rather than the due date option because deadlines and I don't agree). "3" is "today," "2" is "soon," "1" is "when I get free time, and "0" is "undefined." I use the "Folder-All Tasks" view and have folders set up for "home," "web projects," and "business." Another change I've made is that I no longer add blog post ideas as to-do items. Rather, I add those to a Google Notebook and only once I'm sure I want to write that post do they make it to the to-do list.
But even Toodledo is only part of the to-do solution for me. Most of my brilliant flashes of "oooh — I should do this" or "oh man, I need to do this tonight" come to me when I'm away from the computer. For that reason, the most important part of my to-do solution is the 3 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ Moleskine Cahier (pictured right, courtesy of Mark Frauenfelder). It's the first notebook I've ever had than I can literally keep in my pocket at all times. Paired with a Zebra Mini Stainless Steel Pen that fits perfectly in the crease of the Moleskine, I'm never without a place to take notes. The last 16 pages of the cahier are perforated. I use these pages for writing down shopping lists and can then tear the pages out and chuck 'em once I'm done with them.
At the end of the day, or whenever I'm at a computer and remember, I'll transfer any to-do items I've jotted down to my Toodledo list.
So, in summary: Moleskine Cahier with Zebra mini pen to write down items anywhere, Toodledo as my master to-do list, and Google Notebook for brainstorming content ideas.
I should also add that I use a completely different to-do manager at work. I like to keep my work and home life as separate as possible, so I use this as an opportunity to try a slightly different method or tool. My tool of choice at work is the awkwardly-named, minimalist-but-very-functional Treedolist. I use three simple branches: Today, Medium priority, and Low priority. On the rare occasion I think about a work item that needs to be done and I'm not at my desk, into my Moleskine it goes.
For years I've struggled with finding a decent calendaring option. My needs are pretty basic:
- should be online so I can access the same info from home or work
- should be able to have separate calendars viewable on a single calendar page
- should be able to share with other users (so, for instance, Huyen can have her own calendar and we can have a joint calendar as well)
Google Calendar has been the answer for a while now and I definitely don't see that changing. We use it for appointments and travel. I have a public calendar for Half Pint Tour Dates that I syndicate on his site. We keep track of birthdays and anniversaries there (though, admittedly, we haven't gotten any better about sending out cards). Google Calendar rules the school.
Actually, You Know, Doing Stuff
The problem with a lot of productivity systems is that they're so focused on the classification and sorting of information that one of two things happen: 1. I get so distracted by organizing my to-dos that I don't actually do any of them, or 2. I get so frustrated by the complexity of it all, I end up throwing up my hands and regressing to whatever hack-job technique I used before (ie. "none").
That's why I love Leo Babauta's Zen to Done e-book. It takes all of the stuff from David Allen's Getting Things Done that make sense and jettisons the very stuff that seems extraneous to me. Plus, it's a system that encourages you to pick-and-choose what makes most sense for you.
One of the things that has proven helpful about the ZTD technique is the idea of adopting new habits slowly, over the course of a month. Trying to do too many new things at once, Leo says, is a recipe for failure, which I find to be true.
He advocates picking exactly three things from your to-do list each day and focusing on those. At this point, I'm still trying to get to where I can get three items done in a day, but I have been marking off between one and five things for any given day/weekend in order to sharpen my focus on certain tasks/projects.
I've combined some of the ideas in his book with Seinfeld's "Don't Break the Chain" method (using printed yearly calendars instead of the web site), which has worked remarkably well. I have one calendar that I use to keep track of one of my everyday routine tasks and a separate calendar that I use as my "Project Task Calendar." On this one, each month I focus on one project that I want to make progress on every day. I devote at least 15 minutes each night to that project. In January, it was simply journaling, since I wrote very few journal entries last year. In February, it was working on a particular web site redesign. This month I've kind of broken some of the rules and given myself a list of four things (running, working on the same site from February, cleaning the basement, and working on my album) and I need to work on at least one of those each night. Next month, I'll get back to a single project.
This is not to say I've been perfect with this method — I haven't had any months where I haven't missed a day on my Project Task Calendar — but I've also never missed more than three days in a row and my overall monthly rate is about 85% (meaning I haven't missed more than five days in any single month).
In summary, I use the general philosophy of Zen to Done, changing things slowly and persistently, combined with "Don't Break the Chain" for a little added motivation.
Organizing: Physical
Woo boy, this one's a biggie.
I never really considered myself a "material person" since I never drove super expensive cars or insisted on "only the best." However, I've always been a collector. My music collection will attest to that — about 300 DVDs, countless CDs (I dunno — maybe 8 or 10 thousand?), 2000 records, 3000 cassettes. And anyone that's been in our basement can tell you that I have accumulated a bit too much "stuff" for my own good.
Don't worry. I'm not unloading my music collection. That'd be crazy.
But, I am tackling the problem in a few other ways.
Step 1 – Reduce consumption
I've made a conscious effort over the last two years to significantly cut back on the amount of new stuff that I buy. I used to get three or four packages a week at work with CDs or DVDs. Now, I order new CDs, vinyl, or DVDs a few times a year, and only if they're ones of which I really want physical versions. I'm getting more music digitally and use Netflix for pretty much any movie I want to see. This has made a huge, huge difference. I'm much more conscious about the stuff that's coming in and realize that my collections don't define me in the way I used to let them.
Step 2 – Pare down existing "stuff"
This is the most difficult step for me, as I've always had difficulty making judgements about what's worth keeping and what's not. But as I get older, I'm finding it a little easier and more necessary to break unnecessary attachments to "stuff." I've been looking to sites like Unclutterer for inspiration and, indeed, I've made some progress on the worst area of our house: the basement.
When I jumped in and made my first real, concerted effort last summer, I was amazed at how many empty boxes or boxes with only packing material were left down there. They used to have stuff in them, but I had taken that stuff out and just never bothered to chuck the boxes. I wasn't keeping them for any particular reason, I just was lazy. I gathered up a large batch of the extra boxes, recycling the ones that were in rough shape from last year's mini-flood and Freecycling the rest (and also Freecycling packing materials or giving them to the local shipping store). That freed up a lot of room. Unfortunately, Rasine's old toys and clothes that she had outgrown began to fill that space. Huyen's done a good job at sorting through the clothes and returning ones that were lent to us, giving a bunch away to others who are having babies soon (note to anyone having kids: don't buy any clothes for your baby — you won't need to), and keeping a few sentimental ones that we might reuse should we have a second.
Even with this progress, though, the basement is still a certified disaster zone. But, I'm working through it slowly and trying to get a little something done on it every few days. Doing a little eventually amounts to a lot and it just takes some patience to come to peace with the fact that it's not all going to happen at once. Some people would be fine with saying, "Pitch it all and let's start over," but that's not me and I'm alright with that.
Step 3 – Organize the rest
I'm kind of an organizing geek, so I enjoy this part. One of our projects for this year is to turn our living room into a library and I'm foaming at the mouth at the prospect of sorting and organizing all of our books again.
Most of our media is pretty well organized. Our books, our DVDs, comic books, magazines, records, etc. all have their proper place. My CDs have gotten out of hand, though, and when we move those to the basement and out of the to-be library, I'm going to give those a good thorough reorganizing. That'll be the most fun weekend of my life, I tell you. No joke.
Organizing, in summary, boils down to: buying less and getting rid of more (resulting, hopefully, in a net decline of "stuff") and then sorting the rest. Simple in concept, but often a challenge in practice.
Organizing: Digital
If I'm a bit of a physical packrat, I'm a crazy digital packrat. I've got a 500 gig hard drive at work with just my digital music collection on it (only about 150 gigs is used, though). I've got e-mail dating back to 1994. And every digital photo I've ever taken. And I love it that way.
My e-mail could use some work. I'm using way too many folders and want to get down to a simpler method. Merlin Mann's "Inbox Zero" is pretty inspirational, but I've got a ways to get there.
I'm not going to comment too much here because I haven't quite figured things out.
I'm meticulous about my music organization. The music folder on my drive is organized into folders based on genres. Under those are individual folders for each album. Some people use a folder for each artist and then a subfolder for each album by that artist, but I wanted to mimic my physical CD collection organization method, which is Genre – Artist – Album By Year. Thus, a standard folder name for me looks like:
k:\mp3\Hip-Hop\A Tribe Called Quest – [1991] – The Low End Theory\
Filenames, if I have a choice (and I'm really not too picky about these), are in the format of 2-digit Track Number – Artist – Song Title, like:
07 – TrueBless – They Don't See.mp3
I use the freakin
g phenomenal MediaMonkey to listen to my music. No other music app (except maybe Amarok, which I haven't tried) comes close. I use their playlists and auto-playlists extensively, but usually listen by location on my drive. Essential plug-ins/scripts: MonkeyRok, Batch Art Finder, and the iTunes v7 skin.
We organized all of our photos in folders sortable by name based on date (ie. 2008-03-20). With pictures dating back 1999, I'm thinking I might want to set up year-based folders and let the individual dates go in subfolders under those.
We use Picasa for desktop sorting/viewing and Flickr for online sharing. Neither is perfect, but both are quite good.
Just like Buddhism's concept of "The Middle Way," my goal to simplify life isn't about eschewing all material things and living the life of an ascetic. Rather, it's about realizing that happiness isn't going to come from either extreme end of the spectrum: living with nothing and doing nothing on one end or relying on "things" and always being busy on the other end. Rather, it's about cutting out the crap, getting rid of the things that don't matter, and generally lightening one's load. This is a simultaneously physical, mental, and emotional endeavor.
I feel like I've made enormous progress on this front, but of course, there's still a long way to go. The goal is simple. I want to be able to enjoy my quiet times without worrying about something I "should" be doing instead. When I'm working on a project, I want to feel the same drive and passion that I did when I was in college. I don't want to feel an obligation to do anything that's supposed to be (or used to be) enjoyable, but isn't. I want to feel like my time is well-spent, whether it's being with family, being productive, or relaxing.
Is that asking too much?
3 dead, 3 injured after Virginia Beach shooting | VIRGINIA BEACH | WVEC.com | News for Hampton Roads, VirginiaThis was at the apartment complex my sister used to live at. Tragic.
But what about One Sentence and the ADD sites?
Perhaps the truest Amazon review ever.
My first race of the year is coming up this Saturday. It's an informal race ($7 registration and the race gift is a pencil rather than a t-shirt) on a nice, flat course out in the middle of nowhere. I decided it's a few days away so, you know, I better try running or something first.
Last night I went for my first run since last September. I half-expected to not make it a mile; I've been getting winded going up the stairs at work, never a good sign. But I went out with the intention of running for distance and time rather than speed and ended up surprising myself. I ran for just over a half-an-hour, covering 3.35 miles. That's 9:05/mile, which isn't great, but it ranks as just slightly below average from what I was doing back when I was running regularly. The most important thing, though, is that I know I can cover 5k without dying after six months without lacing up my running shoes.
I'm going to try to get one more good run in on Wednesday and then a short 2-miler in on Thursday, leaving Friday to recover. Then I need to prepare for my next race, which is a significantly more difficult one.

Unsatisfactory Grade
Took a class satisfactory/unsatisfactory this semester and hardly showed. Although the prof never said a word, I think theres a reasonable possibility I may not be able to sit for the exam for attendance reasons. Wouldn't be factored into gpa at all, just a U grade. I obviously realize its not a great look on the transcript, but just how bad is it really?

Romeo, Romeo... thou art not Romeo!
... than it is to believe the same thing of Leslie Howard?
I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't think I believed for a minute that Norma Shearer was actually thirteen, or even twenty, but the whole idea of casting a 43 year-old (Howard) and a 34 year-old (Shearer) as two characters who are supposed to be at least twenty years younger than they actually are is deliriously absurd, and I'm not sure if you were ever expected to believe it. But I think my problem with Howard lies elsewhere: he's just not a convincing romantic lead. I've yet to see Pygmalion, but basing expectations on the Rex Harrison of My Fair Lady, that seems like a role Howard would fit: literate, upper class, refined, slightly reedy. He worked in Of Human Bondage because the entire point is that Bette Davis is just using him. But as a straight, supposedly handsome young man, he just can't work. At least parts of Norma Shearer's almost painful attempts to look naive and innocent work; her face is smooth and fresh enough that she occasionally charms you into submission, even if she can't really work the Shakespearean dialogue. But she's probably the best thing this film has to offer, unless watching Edna May Oliver chew ferociously on every single thing she says is your cup of tea; personally, it got old fast. I think I'll stick to the Baz Luhrmann version.

I haven't seen this version, but I'd agree with you about Howard. Personally, I like him as an actor but I couldn't really see him as an impulsive, romantic guy like Romeo. He was perfect in Of Human Bondage and the like. Have you seen The Petrified Forest? Another Bette Davis one, but he plays a suicidal artist quite well in it.

I've not seen Romeo and Juliet but I have seen My Fair Lady (both versions - the film adaptation of Shaw's
play and the later musical version) and you are absolutely right about Howard in it. Rex Harrison in the musical is probably part of my problem with it - he seems old enough to be Eliza's daddy, and hence the whole supposed "attraction" comes off as rather creepy and forced to me.
Howard, on the other hand, plays the character exactly as you describe him (literate, reedy, and so forth) plus arrogant and self-absorbed, but he is also young and handsome and successful and so it's not a stretch to imagine Eliza attracted to him, or at least that he would be suitable marriage material to a young impoverished girl. What makes it work is that Howard is not trying to play a "romantic lead" (with all the possible pitfalls that implies, as in Romeo and Juliet); his combination of good looks, intelligence and arrogance make him more real and thus, ironically sexier than Howard is often allowed to be.

Yikes, I'd meant to sign that last post, sorry!
At any rate, terrific blog - I'm impressed by the films you've seen (many of which I need to add to my queue asap.)
You say you like Baz' Romeo and Juliet, where are you on Moulin Rouge?

Public Opinion on Same-Sex Marriage by Byron Johnson.
Is Opposition To Same-Sex Marriage The Same As Being Anti-Gay?
"Not at all," says Byron Johnson, Director of Baylor's Institute for Studies of Religion and Distinguished Professor of the Social Sciences. Johnson concludes:
It is unwarranted and irresponsible to interpret opposition to same-sex marriage as a proxy for being anti-gay. There is no empirical evidence to suggest that senior citizens are anti-gay.
Johnson bases his opinion on the findings from a recent national survey on same-sex marriage performed by the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI). For the record, this survey was was funded by something called the Arcus Foundation, a pro-LGBT organization. So, it is not as if Johnson is rehashing the findings from a pro-traditional marriage witch hunt poll. Still yet, Johnson makes an interesting observation from the data in this particular survey:
There is indeed a significant gap in support of same-sex marriage when one compares all Millennials to all senior citizens. However, when one looks at the views of Evangelicals toward same-sex marriage—a group estimated to be 100 million strong—a considerably different picture emerges. Being an Evangelical Protestant significantly lowers the chance one will agree with gay marriage in either age range, and brings the 18-to-29 age group down to a level of support similar to all others in the 65-and-over age range. Perhaps Evangelical churches are doing a better job combating the considerable cultural influences in support of same-sex marriage.
I take two things away from Byron's observation:
- Opposition to same-sex marriage does not necessarily mean the same thing as being anti-gay. Evangelical Christians would be wise to call foul whenever the two phrases are used interchangeably in the popular press. And the popular press would be wise to describe the debate using a measure of technical consistency and proficiency.
- I hope the Christian Church in America is as steady in lifting up the Biblical standard for marriage and family as Johnson suggests. And, I pray that the Christian Church would stand as strongly for other Bible items (Like salvation, truth, evangelism, ecclesiology, beauty, and discipleship).

I still need to read a Jojo Moyes book!! EEE. Also, I plan to start The Bronze Horseman sometime in the next month or so because of you! I bought it when it was cheap on Kindle and it's time I think. I also have Sea of Tranquility and Just One Day on my list. Thinking of binge reading the Laini Taylor series in December! I hear the writing is amaaaazing!ReplyDeleteReplies
Hah, so as I was reading your post Kelly and composing a comment in my head, I scroll down here and see Jamie has written basically the exact same thing! :) I think The Bronze Horseman will be my next purchase; I hope to get to it soon but my Master's program is getting in the way of things a bit. I've also had The Sea of Tranquility on my next up list because of you and Hannah. I think I might try The Daughter of Smoke and Bone as well this month for something kind of spooky. (I don't like REAL scary reads, demons is about as close as I like to get!)Delete
Hell yes for TSoT and the Shatter Me books. Give me another chapter 55 (Ignite Me) too! That is still one of the hottest YA scenes I've read ;)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousOctober 7, 2014 at 5:22 PM
I am so with you for Jojo Moyes! I would have broken up with her if Jess was not happy in the end!ReplyDelete
I love your TTT, K! Seeing your thoughts just made me even MORE eager to read the books I haven't yet on this list (which is quite a few, but I SWEAR they're on the TBR). They also made me smile or want to reread when I read the ones for the books I HAVE read - Just One Day, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Ignite Me - mostly because I felt the same way!ReplyDelete
The Discovery of Witches, Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Just One Day - love these books. And The Sea of Tranquility - that was a character-driven if there ever was one. So good.ReplyDelete

Our friends at Yanko Design passed along this gorgeous recycled TetraBox Lamp created by designer Ed Chew. The Malaysian native designed and constructed TetraBox Lamp from empty Tetra Brik boxes, a popular Malaysian soft drink that comes in a rectangular packet. The development process reminds us of elementary school craft projects that reused just about anything the art teachers could get their hands on. But Ed Chew's upcycle project is so beautiful that it puts our milk carton creations to shame.
The TetraBox Spherical Lamp required approximately 450 empty soft drink packets and is 260mm in diameter. The boxes were unfolded and then transformed into 108 hexagons by cutting 6 strips of 6 squares, each 130mm x 21mm, to form a triangle and 6 strips of 4 squares, 76mm x 19mm, that act as knots to hold them all together. The lamp required an additional 12 pentagons made up of 5 strips of 5 squares, each 115mm x 21. The pentagon knots are 5 strips of 4 squares, at 76mm x 15mm. The end result is a beautiful masterpiece that illuminates light in breath-taking patterns.
Like many designers Ed Chew is attempting to do his part to make our world more sustainable. He feels his design could help reduce what ends up in landfills and encourages others to tap into the creative sides and try building something on their own or even collectively. "Imagine if each of us were to turn the empty boxes after each quench into a hexagon, and collectively knot them together, what possibly could we achieve?" says Chew. "We could possibly achieve building a spherical pavilion as big as a house!"

The rumbling clash of helmets is stopped short by the shriek of a whistle and the thud of Coach Arnold's clip board as it hits the ground. The boys know what's coming. In a low, staccatoed bellow, she (yes, you read right) – she lays in. "How–many– times–do–I–have–to–say–it? This is a THINKING MAN'S GAME!" Following a review of the play and some specific instructions to the quarterback, they run the play again. And again.
With numbers as thin as the freshmen frames that dot its offensive and defensive lines, many on Mesa Preparatory Academy's young team have never played a game of football in their lives, much less entire games as two-way players. In fact, the 15 boys seem as out of place as their practice field, a lone patch of green in a sea of desert brown. But because someone cared to plant, water, nurture, and groom a field, and a bunch of green young men, the team has emerged as an inspiration to everyone around them.
No doubt, they took their cue from Coach Amy Arnold. One of two female head coaches of a high school football team in the nation, and head of the only all-female coaching staff, Arnold was as shocked as anyone to find herself in this novel position. But she and anyone who knows her will tell you it all started, and continues, because of one thing – passion. For the game, for the students, for winning, and for teaching.
Arnold's passion for the game comes from her personal experience playing it. At the age of 31, she joined a professional women's football league and played throughout the U.S. – her second full-time job, as she called it, but definitely her first love. She played in various leagues for six years, advancing to the championship game one of those years and being named "Most Dedicated Player" several of them. It's also where she met teammates Angie Darnell and Kim Hoke, now her assistant coaches.
Following her football career, Arnold found herself applying for the assistant coaching position at a start-up preparatory academy that was hiring for a junior high football program because they didn't have enough students for a high school program. She walked out of the interview as Mesa Prep's head football coach and, though she didn't know it at the time, a future teacher.
"Coaching football is what encouraged me to go back to school," says Arnold. "That's why I enrolled at OU™. All the parents kept telling me, 'Amy, you're making such an impact on my son; you're making such a difference in his life.' And I thought, 'I want more of this. I'm on the right path, so I'm going back to school to become a teacher.'" While going to school, Arnold coached the junior high team for two years before developing a high school program along with her former teammates. She completed her student teaching at Mesa Preparatory Academy in December 2010 and is currently a long-term substitute while she waits for a teaching position to open up.
"I love everything about this school," says Arnold. "I love the Socratic approach to education, the quality of student, the family values that I see in the kids that I coach, the small 1A type school, the parents that really care – I've fallen in love with it all. Nothing would please me more than teaching at this school and coaching high school football for the next 30 years."
You wouldn't hear an argument from the students, parents, faculty, staff, or fellow-coaches if she stuck around, either. "There are a lot of parents who sing Amy's praises," says Mesa Prep Head Master Robert Wagner. "You certainly aren't going to get any skeptics among our dads. And the teachers are aware that, if their kids aren't doing well in the classroom, all they have to do is talk to the coach. Amy and her staff have been really supportive of getting the kids on board to do what they need to do in the classroom."
That, also, comes from example. "I know why academics are so important," says Arnold. "My first college experience was through a softball scholarship – that was number one to me and my grades suffered badly. At OU, I was a straight A student. I'm very proud of that. I tell my boys, 'I've got a test tomorrow, so come on – let's get out of here.' And every once in a while they'll ask, 'Coach, what did you get on that test?' 'I got a 98 percent.' 'Coach! Good job!' I tell them it's because I study. 'If you start studying, you'll do the same thing in the classroom. And if you study the playbook, we can be 98 percent on the field! Football is a thinking man's game.'"
And the players listen. Though they may be small in numbers and stature, they are driven by the two things that are not small – their heart and a healthy respect for Coach Arnold. Hanging on her every word, "Yes, Coach" is their response whether they're being yelled at for a failed play, being told to drop and give her 50, or being teased about a new girlfriend. With a commanding and compelling balance between drill sergeant, coach, parent, and friend, Arnold shapes the boys on her team as both players and young adults.
"I don't know how to explain it," says freshman Nate Stock, "but she knows how to pump us up and how to encourage us. She has a good balance between being hard on us when she needs to be and being understanding. She also knows what you can do and can achieve. At the beginning of the year, I had the speed, but I couldn't really catch well. But she had faith in me and we just kept working on it. We stayed after practice a couple of times, and I got better."
Matt Kendall is another of Arnold's freshman players who played under her in junior high. "I can just tell that she really loves the game," says Kendall. "That's why she's doing all this. Not only is she a woman coaching a guy's team, but she's doing it well. And I don't mean to sound offensive, but I don't even realize that we have a woman coach. She's just my coach and you do what she says because she's the coach."
"Amy's passion for the game exceeds most coaches," says Defensive Coach Darnell. "The care she has for the kids and coaching them properly – teaching them respect, teaching them camaraderie, teaching them discipline and hard work – those are things that will not only affect them on the football field, but for the rest of their lives, in their schoolwork, in their jobs, and in their relationships."
Offensive Coordinator Hoke agrees. "Amy Arnold is an incredible coach. We all had the same coach while playing professional ball, and she has surpassed our coach in her abilities. She took everything we learned from our head coach and took it to the next level. She's broken it down so that it doesn't matter whether you're teaching it to 30-year-old women or 15-year-old boys. They get it – it's clear, it's concise, and it's pretty amazing. I've never seen a team as disciplined, and I've been coaching for a while. She deserves every bit of respect she gets."
With no seniors, only four juniors, and the rest freshmen and sophomores, the high school team finished its first season with a 2-8 record. "There is nothing that I hate worse than losing," says Arnold. "It becomes a habit, and I get absolutely furious. But the teams we played this year have been playing longer, have more experience, and have more depth. We took our medicine this year, and we needed to. That way we'll appreciate the wins when they come along. We gained an immeasurable amount of experience this year that hopefully will spill over to next season."
First-year Championship Silences the Skeptics
The Lead-up
Mesa Prep is one of five Great Heart Preparatory Schools in the Valley. 2008 was the first year for our junior high football program. We lost our first game of the season to Glendale, 18-12, but we won the second game against Scottsdale, 30-6. Next we played Veritas with four players out because of ineligibility. They cleaned our clocks 44-24. It was horrible. So we were 2 and 2 going into the playoffs and we had to face Veritas again – but they hadn't seen us at full strength. They were a passing team, so I developed a whole new defense against their passing game – every receiver had double coverage. Danged if we didn't beat them 24-6. That put us in the championship game with a 3-2 record against Glendale, who was undefeated.
The Glendale coach, who is a former NFL player, had been walking up and down the sideline during that game watching me and everything that I did. But I told our boys that we could give him our entire play book and it wouldn't matter because this was our time. We were the Giants against the Patriots walking into the championship game. They were like – YEAH! They got so excited, and the parents were going berserk. So I had 15 players, 15 sets of parents, two coaches, and an enthusiastic athletic director all on my side. It was a very powerful and emotional thing.
The Secret Weapon
At the beginning of the season, I devised a play that involved the quarterback and the left wing. It was complicated to explain, so we dubbed it the Stealth Wing play, for short. Now remember, these boys hadn't played football before, and this was a pretty intricate play – it required precise timing, a perfect angle, exact footing. So my quarterback and left wing practiced this play all year long – before practice, after practice, on the weekends – trying to perfect it. They were just enthralled by this play. And they thought the name was pretty cool, too. Well, they were convinced they finally had it down, so I made them run it over and over to prove it. Sure enough – they had it.
So during the championship game, my quarterback, Cameron, was coming to the sideline to get the plays from me. This one time I give him a play and he just looked at me and said, "Coach – Stealth Wing." I said, "Okay. Run it." You should have seen the energy field in that huddle when he told the team they were going to run the Stealth Wing. It was electric. And sure enough – touchdown! I was running down the sideline screaming to Cameron – "Go, buddy, go!" It was unbelievable. Just magical.
As the game wound down, we had about a minute and a half to go and we were up a touchdown. We had the ball at first down and I told Cameron to just take a knee to run out the clock. Well, we had never had to take a knee before. The kids knew everything we had taught them about the game, but we had never practiced taking a knee. So when the ball was snapped, not only did Cameron take a knee, but the entire team went down. I turned around to the parents and we were all so touched. It was a precious moment.
The Reaction
When we won against this 5-0 team coached by a former NFL player, I rushed the field in a blubbering mess. I was just so proud of those boys. I was picking them up, hugging them, screaming, "We did it! We did it!" Of course, they got me good with the water jug. But the best part was that my dad was there. So many parents went up to him during the game and told him things about me. He was just beaming with pride. He was my coach when I was growing up, so this was kind of like passing the torch to see me win this championship. It was a pretty special deal.
The other really cool thing was what several of the parents said to me after we won. "Coach," they said, "I think they had better players, but the difference was that we had a better coach." That was really something.
The Screenplay
In the future, you may be able to watch as well as read about Amy Arnold's success as a female football coach. OU-Arizona's Dr. Karen Bryson worked with Coach Arnold to write a screenplay of the junior high championship team. It is currently in the hands of a marketing agent, and if it is bought and picked up by a producer, it could be coming to a big screen near you!

Æbleskiver is one of the oldest Danish foods that is still being eaten today. Æbleskiver has mostly been eaten as a dessert, but can also be served a dinner course in their own right and as a supplement to soup. Æbleskiver are made from a dough often made with buttermilk raised with yeast, egg or baking powder and are fried in butter. The dough can also be spiced with cardamom and lemon zest.
Originally a little piece of apple or a little applesauce, prunes or raisins were put inside the æbleskiver. They are served warm with marmalade made from fruit or berries (most often strawberry, raspberry or black currant) and sugar. Well-made æbleskiver are round with a crisp surface. The inside has a bread-like texture and should be soft, sweet, appropriately salty and with the apple giving a surprising, fresh, acidic aroma. In the southwestern part of Denmark, prunes sometimes are used instead of apple.
Æbleskiver has spread to the northern part of Germany where they are called Förtchen or Ballbäuchen. Here, they are often served with applesauce or prune sauce and often iced with icing sugar and cinnamon.
Æbleskiver are made in a special pan with individual hollows in which the doughnuts are cooked. The dough is placed into these hollows with melted butter, and individually flipped with wooden skewers while cooking. This takes about 6-8 minutes.
Æbleskiver have been made since at least the 18th century, and were common in certain southern parts of Denmark (Ærø and Southern Jutland). On Lolland and Falster Islands a local tradition is to pour schnapps in an opened æbleskiver - this is called a svupsak.
The æbleskiver name could have originated from an 18th century dish where slices of apples dipped in dough are fried in lard. The oldest known recipe for æbleskiver in print is from 1703 in the cookbook En højfordemme Madames Kaagebog. Here the dish is presented in two variations: a yeast-dough apple cake and slices of apple dippedin dough and then fried in a pan. This book also mentions the existence of the special æbleskiver pan.
The æbleskiver pan was originally designed for use over the open fire, but today is used with electric stoves. As the availability of convenience food has increased, pre-made frozen versions and mixes began to appear on supermarket shelves. Often these versions did not include fruit (fresh apples or marmalade) and substituted margarine for butter.
Today, æbleskiver has become a seasonal item, served mostly around the Christmas holidays. Homemade recipes can be divided into two categories: those using yeast and those using eggs and cream. Knowledge of how to make these traditional treats has decreased, especially among younger generations. The majority of those eaten today are the low quality, industrial brands. The tradition of making fresh æbleskiver with apple filling, dough with yeast and baked in butter deserves to be kept alive.

Ryan: 'Let's Get This Done'
The House Budget Committee chairman depended on his strengths as a number-cruncher to lay out a down-to-earth case for why Americans should lean on the Romney-Ryan ticket to pull the country out of an economic crisis.
"Here we were, faced with a massive job crisis – so deep that if everyone out of work stood in single file, that unemployment line would stretch the length of the entire American continent. You would think that any president, whatever his party, would make job creation, and nothing else, his first order of economic business," Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) told the Republican National Convention tonight.
"But this president didn't do that. Instead, we got a long, divisive, all-or-nothing attempt to put the federal government in charge of health care."
Ryan accepted the party's nomination for vice president "to help lead our nation out of a jobs crisis and back to prosperity – and I know we can do this."
"I'm the newcomer to the campaign, so let me share a first impression. I have never seen opponents so silent about their record, and so desperate to keep their power," he said. "They've run out of ideas. Their moment came and went. Fear and division are all they've got left."
"With all their attack ads, the president is just throwing away money – and he's pretty experienced at that."
Ryan introduced his family to the crowd -- and to the national audience -- and called his late father "a gentle presence" in his life growing up in Janesville, Wis.
"President Barack Obama came to office during an economic crisis, as he has reminded us a time or two. Those were very tough days, and any fair measure of his record has to take that into account," he said. "My home state voted for President Obama. When he talked about change, many people liked the sound of it, especially in Janesville, where we were about to lose a major factory."
Though Obama promised on the campaign trail that the GM plant would be open for "another hundred years" with government support, the congressman said, the plant shut down within the year (during whose term was an online debate after Ryan's speech) and is locked up to this day.
"Right now, 23 million men and women are struggling to find work. Twenty-three million people, unemployed or underemployed. Nearly one in six Americans is living in poverty," he said. "...So here's the question: Without a change in leadership, why would the next four years be any different from the last four years?"
Ryan stressed that Medicare "is a promise, and we will honor it." On the debt crisis, the focus of his "Path to Prosperity" budget plan, he said, "I'm going to level with you: We don't have that much time. But if we are serious, and smart, and we lead, we can do this."
"College graduates should not have to live out their 20s in their childhood bedrooms, staring up at fading Obama posters and wondering when they can move out and get going with life," he said. "Everyone who feels stuck in the Obama economy is right to focus on the here and now. And I hope you understand this too, if you're feeling left out or passed by: You have not failed, your leaders have failed you."
The chairman said when he was growing up washing dishes or waiting tables, "I never thought of myself as stuck in some station in life. ... That's freedom, and I'll take it any day over the supervision and sanctimony of the central planners."
Ryan quipped that, a generation apart, Mitt Romney's iPod is stocked with songs heard "on many hotel elevators" while his "playlist starts with AC/DC, and ends with Zeppelin."
"Mitt and I also go to different churches. But in any church, the best kind of preaching is done by example. And I've been watching that example. The man who will accept your nomination tomorrow is prayerful and faithful and honorable," the Catholic congressman said. "Not only a defender of marriage, he offers an example of marriage at its best. Not only a fine businessman, he's a fine man, worthy of leading this optimistic and good-hearted country."
Ryan vowed that in the White House, "we will not duck the tough issues, we will lead; we will not spend four years blaming others, we will take responsibility; we will not try to replace our founding principles, we will reapply our founding principles."
"When Governor Romney asked me to join the ticket, I said, 'Let's get this done' – and that is exactly what we're going to do," he said.

Missouri man gets shock time for threatening ex-girlfriend
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) – A Springfield man who tampered with the brakes of his ex-girlfriend's car and sent her several threatening texts will serve 120 days "shock time" in prison and serve probation.
The Springfield News-Leader reports 23-year-old David Piatchek was sentenced Tuesday for aggravated stalking, tampering with a motor vehicle and violating a protection order.
Prosecutors say Piatchek terrorized his ex-girlfriend, including finding her car at Missouri State University in September 2016 and draining the brake fluid.
His attorney, Larry Catt, said the girl was never in serious danger in her car. He also argued that Piatchek was a good person who suffered from anxiety and depression. He also told the judge Piatchek is getting treatment for alcoholism.
The victim also asked that Piatchek not be sentenced to prison.

You may have noticed the Future Athlete outfit from our Sewing for Kindergarten post included the Longihood and we promised more details later. Well, today we've got a full review of the Longihood pattern as well as a few more details about that Future Athlete look.
Something neat is happening…Annika from Naeh Connection is making sewing a universal language by bringing pattern written in English to Germans who sew and patterns written in German to those of us who sew in English. That's what the Longihood pattern is, a pattern originally written in German, now available in English in the Naeh Connection Shop.
The Longihood pattern is a PDF pattern created by Die Erbensenprinzessin It can be made in 10 sizes from 80 (12 months) to 134 (size 9) in 2 styles. There is a more fitted dress version and a shorter sweater version.
Either one can have a hood or a cowl and the option of a kangaroo pocket. The hood can be made with or without the cuff/band. The shorter version can be made with a color blocked front. The recommended fabrics are sweatshirting, french terry, velour, fleece, etc. Rib knit is recommended for the cuffs and hem band.
The sewing of the Longihood is pretty straightforward. There are just a few illustrations, not one for every step. However, this is a nice easy sew, and the words are very thorough.
For Annie, I sewed the dress version because it has waist shaping, but in the shorter, sweater length. I made her a size 128 (size 8.) The striped fabric came from Imagine Gnats, but is no longer available.
The contrast navy blue is a bamboo french terry, this one from The Fabric Fairy.
Both these hoodies are incredibly soft! Like, I WANT one, soft! I think the kids favorite feature of the Longihood is the kangaroo pocket…they have their hands in all the time!
For David, I sewed the basic sweater version without the color blocked front. Because I was making it basic, I added all the optional topstitching and then some! I sewed him a size 104 (size 4) with no changes.
The rest of the Future Athlete look is yet another pair of Parachute Sweatpants! David loves this pattern so much that it's almost all he ever chooses to wear. I am a little disappointed in the quality of the sweatshirt fleece from JoAnn's though because it's pilling pretty fast. I know he puts it to the ultimate boy test, and they've been laundered quite often, but still. If you have a recommendation for good quality sweatshirt fleece, I'd love to hear it.
Overall, I definitely recommend the Longihood pattern, and will be making more for my kids! And you should too, because right now there are sales…check this out:
His Outfit details:
Top Pattern: Longihood translate to English in the Naeh Connection Shop
Top Fabric: French Terry from Hancock Fabric store closing, similar here and Grey Knit Rib similar here
Sweatpants Pattern: Parachute Sweatpants
Sweatpants Fabric: Sweatshirt Fleece Fabric-Navy
Affiliate links are used in this post because I love fabric, and fabric isn't FREE! If you click on an affiliate link, I might make a couple of pennies on a sale.

This has potential to be a really good site. I dig local travelogue-type sites.
Archive for July, 2000
I have no clue what made me read this. (Link courtesy Obscure Store.)
I'll get the hang of this blogger thing sooner or later. After all, I've been only been on the Web since '94, cut me some slack. :)
I realized today that 99.5% of all new corporate web sites simply suck. I've spent 5 hours browsing sites and found one with a design I really liked (and even that one wasn't 100% to my liking).

Cry Uncle!
For eleven-year-old Davey Anderson, the move to the country seemed like a catastrophe from the start. he must get used to a new school, new chores, even a "new" back-to-nature mom who insists on serving one of her 101 disastrous zucchini dishes each night. Then Davey learns that his seventy-four-year-old great-uncle Will is coming to live with them. And he's going to stay in Davey's room! What could be worse than sharing your room with a seventy-four-year-old man who sometimes forgets his own age and thinks he is your kid brother? But Uncle Will turns out to be wise and a lot of fun, whether it's plotting the perfect revenge on the mean Spider twins or planning a moonlight raid on Mom's zucchini garden. So when Uncle Will almost sets the house on fire and gets lost in the woods, Davey's desperate to find him a new place to live before Mom can put him in a nursing home. And the results are better than anyone could have expected!
"An auspicious debut novel, full of action and humor, with touches of pathos." - Kirkus Reviews
"Auch's story is laden with snug family scenes; the route Davey and his older brother Brad take toward accepting and loving Will is circuitous and believable." - Publisher's Weekly
"An impressive first novel with a welcome touch of humor and more than a little heart." - Booklist
"Middle school readers will laugh aloud...as well as empathize with Davey and his growing love, understanding, and concern for his uncle. This is a promising beginning for a new author." – School Library Journal

Emanuele Soavi started his career at Opera Roma and Teatro La Fenice in Venice. Engagements at Ballet Dortmund the Dutch company Introdans followed, during wich he worked with Jiří Kylián, Hans van Manen, William Forsythe and Mats Ek. Since 2016 he has been working as a freelance choreographer for independent ensembles, companies, theaters and universities, among them Staatstheater am Gärtnerplatz in Munich (current production PETER PAN in 2016), Theater Aachen, Hochschule für Musik und Tanz in Cologne, ARTEz Dance Academy Arnheim, Zürcher Hochschule der Künste, MMcompany and Agora Coaching Project Reggio Emilia. As part of movingtheatre.de he has been nominated for the Cologne Dance Award multiple times and was awarded with this prize in 2009.
Soavi's works have been invited for numerous guest performances and international festivals in Germany, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belarus and the Netherlands. In 2012 Soavi founded his own label Emanuele Soavi incompany. Focussing on local and international cooperations, the company develops myriad formats in order to enhance its network for collaborations with various art institutions and artists from all disciplines.
The so-called Myth Project SEDUCED AND SEDUCER was one of the most prominent projects of the company's first years. Three major productions, co-produced by schrit_tmacher Festival Aachen / Heerlen, Dansateliers Rotterdam, Festspiele Ludwigshafen / Theater im Pfalzbau, a youth production in collaboration with educational institutions and museums in Barcelona (Institut del Teatre / Fundaciò Antoni Tápies), Reggio Emilia (AGORA coaching project), Rotterdam (Codarts University) and Cologne (Römisch-Germanisches Museum) as well as a symposium in collaboration with the University of Cologne and Deutsches Tanzarchiv / Tanzmuseum Köln were realized. In 2014 all three productions were shown during one evening and due to an exceptional cooperation with the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra and Theater Duisburg.
In addition to the choreographic work for his ensemble, Emanuele Soavi continually develops his standing as a solo performer. Following PANsolo, for which he was awarded the Cologne Award for Best Performer, and BLACKBIRDBOY, he created AUREA, a cooperation with Susanne Linke. This solo also marked the beginning of the so-called "Habit Cycles", a new production series focussing on collaborations with national and international artists only. In 2015 PARADISUS? was developed, a production with Cologne director and actor Daniel Schüßler and his label ANALOGTHEATER. In 2016 LVMEN was developed in collaboration with the Dutch photographer Joris-Jan Bos and choreographer Cora Bos-Kroese. In 2017 the series came to an end with ANIMA, a production realized in cooperation with Spanish video artist Meritxell Aumedes Molinero.
In 2016 Emanuele Soavi incompany established a format that both conveys as well as emphasizes ideas and approaches in the field of dance. The format accompanies new productions and consists of four parts. The all center around the so-called LIVING ROOM which takes place at the Cologne gallery Freiraum and enables artists and audience to get together on a regular basis and discuss current stage productions as well as general issues concerning contemporary art.
In 2017 and for the very first time Emanuele Soavi incompany realized a project in cooperation with Oper Köln – RELICS. Further partners on this project were the Duisburg Philharmonic Orchestra, the Lehmbruck Museum, electronic composer Wolfgang Voigt and sound designer Stefan Bohne. In fall 2018 two new projects will be released: ATLAS I – How Does My Body Sound? in collaboration with Forsythe dancer Jone San Martin and Tanzhaus nrw. The second project will be #auferstanden, a cooperation with the ensemble Cantus Cölln at Kölner Philharmonie.
Since 2018 Emanuele Soavi incompany receives conceptual support from the City Council Cologne.

The collection evokes a powerful sense of self-expression through exaggerated pattern, texture and silhouette.
Graphic drawings by English artist Gary Hume are featured in jacquard, embroidery and intarsia designs. Optic white threadwork embroidery drawn into a black wool coat paired with zip detail trousers.
A bold polka dot print is shifted and distorted, sliced and repositioned on a duchess silk creating a movement of folds. Realized in a black and white soft volume asymmetric dress.
Denim is luxurious in varying shades of blue and black creating a collaged effect. A trench coat of generous proportion is teamed with a straight leg jean both in organic denim.
A duchess origami patchwork tulip is inserted into a sweatshirt in cream and optic white and on a mini column dress in deep green, black, optic white and dusty pink.
Houndstooth is blown up in a brushed mohair blanket coat with a fringed selvedge. Soft and unstructured oversized jacquard knitwear mixes different scales of houndstooth to graphic effect.
Injected with a sporty edge, evening wear is constructed with engineered basket weave embroidery traced with waves of fringe in white, ink cream and jet black. A mini dress contouring the body is outlined with fringe to reveal a shadow of transparency.
Shoes emphasize the masculine attitude of the collection with a pointy toe and welted sole in black, white and pebble. A derby shoe has a square punched perforated vamp with a flat or mid heel; while a slip on style is modernized with a minimal elastic detail.
The Falabella and the Beckett bags are offered this season in new shapes, sizes and color combinations to compliment the collection including bluebird, pebble, black and burgundy; as well as in the bold houndstooth and polka dot prints. This season the Cavendish bag is introduced, geometric and structured in shape, while also slouchy, in eco alter nappa, suede and snakeskin.
