Athletics - 200 000 000 - 2 7 11st inning: Pedroia single, Youkilis home run, Ortiz single, Lowell single, Bay home run. 5 batters, 5 hits, 5 runs.
Red Sox - 504 010 02x - 12 14 0
It was a nine-batter, 46-pitch first inning for Eveland. He got the side in order in the second and faced four batters in the third: Lowell double, Bay walk, Drew walk, Lowrie 3-RBI double. Lenny DiNardo came on and pitched the final six innings: 6-6-3-3-2, 89, facing one less batter than Lester.
Lester (7-7-2-1-5, 100) had a first inning hiccup, when Sweeney began the game with a single, Brown bopped a hanging curve for a one-out dong, and Thomas and Ellis followed with singles. After a visit from Farrell, Lester got a double play to end the inning.
And the A's did not get another runner past first base all evening.
Youkilis hit a second home run, a 2-run shot in the eighth, his 20th of the season. All of the starters got at least one hit -- and the entire bench saw some game time.
The standings remain the same as Tampa Bay beat Detroit 9-3 and New York beat Los Angeles 8-2.
Dana Eveland (3.88, 101 ERA+) / Jon Lester (3.17, 139 ERA+)
But first: Angels/Yankees at 3:45 PM and Tigers/Rays at 6 PM

The conservation treatment: reasons and objectives
The painting exhibited a range of conservational problems prior to conservation treatment. Owing to the technique used in painting it, the paint had lost adhesion to the canvas in almost every part of the picture. The heavily cracked paint layer showed evidence of dishing and was flaking off in thin areas.
There were numerous tiny areas of paint loss throughout the picture. Some of these flaws had already been extensively painted over.
These areas of overpaint had become discoloured over time and marred the overall aesthetic impression.
The aim of the conservation treatment was a large-scale consolidation and stabilization of the extremely matt paintwork.
Additionally, chips in the paint layer were to be closed and retouched, while the old and discoloured areas of overpaint were to be either removed or shaded to match the surrounding paintwork.

Red Sox - 020 000 022 - 6 9 0Lester (7-4-1-1-5, 103) and Jason Bay (two home runs, one single, two runs, four RBI, one stolen base) led the way.
Orioles - 000 100 020 - 3 5 1
Jonathan Papelbon came into the game with two outs in the eighth inning. He allowed a double to Aubrey Huff, which scored two of Manny Delcarmen's runners and shrunk the Boston lead to one run, 4-3. The Red Sox got some insurance in the top of the ninth, as Dustin Pedroia singled and scored on Ortiz's second double of the game. Ortiz then scored on a fielder's choice from Bay.
Also: Jason Varitek hit a solo homer and Coco Crisp singled and walked twice.
Tampa Bay beat Los Angeles 6-4, so the Red Sox stay 4.5 GB, while the Yankees drop to 10 GB.
Jon Lester (3.25, 138 ERA+) / Jeremy Guthrie (3.18, 137 ERA+)
The Red Sox are 28-35 (.444) away from Fenway Park. In other words, they are the Pirates or the Royals or the Reds when they are on the road.
With Tampa Bay hosting the Angels for three games, followed by a weekend set in Chicago against the White Sox, this would be a good time for Boston to close the widening gap in the AL East. The Rays went 7-3 on their just-completed road trip, bumping their divisional lead over the Red Sox from 3 to 4.5 GA.
Boston will play three games in each of Baltimore, Toronto, and New York. Jason Bay: "Three divisional opponents, three teams that I've heard play us pretty tough. ... You have to win on the road."
Guthrie has allowed only one run in each of his last four starts (IP: 6.1, 9, 7, 7) and no more than two runs in six of his last seven outings (2.06 ERA).
Also: Angels/Rays at 7 PM. The Yankees (9.5 GB) are off today before starting a series in Toronto on Tuesday.
J.D. Drew left yesterday's game with tightness in his lower back. ... Tim Wakefield tossed a ball for the second consecutive day, but there's no timetable for his return. ... Jonathan Papelbon is still battling migraines.

Health Management Associates made a pre-emptive call to investors this morning in advance of a "60 Minutes" segment scheduled to air on CBS Sunday that is likely to focus on Carlisle Regional Medical Center.
HMA executives said they have not seen the segment and do not know what it contains but believe it may wrongly portray HMA in a negative light.
In the call, which lasted nearly an hour, HMA executives focused on emergency room admissions. They said emergency room admissions data across HMA reflect no significant changes and are in line with industry norms.
However, HMA said, a recent lawsuit of which Lancaster General Health is part underscores the tension all hospitals currently face in determining whether patients should be admitted or merely kept for observation. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is increasingly questioning admissions, HMA said, but observations place much more cost on patients and may lead to more patients subsequently returning to emergency rooms.
As for CRMC specifically, executives said that there was a sudden growth in emergency room visits about August 2011 that the staffing wasn't prepared for. HMA said those issues were addressed even before CRMC was cited for the problem and that after extensive analysis they see no cause for concern in CRMC's admissions.
The executives also avowed pride in CRMC, saying that it was ranked as a top hospital in America by The Joint Commission last year and that it recruited more than 40 new physicians to the community in recent years.
HMA, which is based in Florida and trades on the NYSE under the ticker symbol HMA, also owns Heart of Lancaster Regional Medical Center and Lancaster Regional Medical Center.
A webcast of the HMA call, including data slides, is available here.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — U.S. Sen. Michael Crapo pleaded guilty today to a charge of driving while intoxicated and then apologized for his actions and asked forgiveness from his constituents.
The Idaho Republican said nothing during a brief appearance in Alexandria General District Court, where he pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor and was ordered to pay a $250 fine and complete an alcohol safety program. He also agreed to a 12-month suspension of his driver's license.
The sentence is typical for first-time drunken-driving offenders in Virginia.
But outside of court and in a subsequent conference call with reporters in his home state, Crapo apologized and said he'd been drinking alcohol a few nights a week, in violation of the tenets of his Mormon faith.
Crapo said he tried alcohol for the first time about a year ago, though he couldn't remember the details. It was a misguided attempt to relieve stress, he said, and he always kept his use of alcohol hidden, drinking alone in his Washington, D.C., apartment.
The night of his arrest was the first time he had driven drunk, Crapo said.

16 Wednesday Aug 2017
by Jeffrey Bishop
On a recent trip to New York, as is my pattern, I combed over every major museum from Brooklyn to the Guggenheim and those in between, as well as many galleries. On the insistence of several artist friends, I spent the morning viewing Hilma af Klimt's paintings at the Guggenheim.
I was enraptured with her turn of the last century's work, precursing the know figures of Modernism-Kandinsky, Malevich and Mondrian. A relatively unknown (to the world, but not in her native Sweden) artist with a definite spiritual bent, complete with séances and mystical writings. But most importantly were the bold paintings of shapes and patterns that are very contemporary and defy definition. They are truly innovative and fresh; they remained with me for days afterward. I highly recommend the show. As Roberta Smith noted in the Times, "a rapturous exhibition." The best show I saw. Until April 23rd.
As a shooter of film for forty years, it has been a struggle to grasp the impact of the digital age and the Internet on of the status of photography in our world. The act of shooting has become an indulgent, social event.
Henry Wessel, sadly recently deceased in California, was a profound photographer, mentor, professor and thinker on photography, especially on the American West.
"Pressing the shutter is saying yes to the world.'" One of his most poignant quotations which set me back; upon arriving at LAX, he commented on the light intensity, "it looked like you could lean against it." He was honored by many museum exhibitions from Szarkowski's at Moma, to Eastman House, to Cologne. He was instrumental in the photo program at the San Francisco Institute, joining its faculty in 1973.
Lee Friedlander called him the "Photo Buddha." I could mention Walker Evens or Cartier Bresson as his inspiration, but he embarked further into the ordinary terrain of life. This plots a direct collusion with Instagram and Facebook imaging. He was concerned about the proliferation of pictures and it's deterioration of the import of the photograph.
"People don't pay much attention these days to the descriptive, expressive and suggestive facts found in a good still photograph.
"The process of photographing is a pleasure: eyes open, receptive, sensing, and at some point connecting. It's thrilling to be outside your mind, your eyes far ahead of your thoughts."
That's picture taking.
I cannot help to be critically drawn to the narcissistic nature of people's images – selfies, food, pets and fronting famous objects. Nothing to do with image making but all about themselves. Sadly that is our future.
HANS HOFFMAN: The Nature of Abstraction
February 27, 2019 – July 21, 2019, at Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, California
It's impossible to imagine a history of American abstract art in the postwar era without Hofmann, who taught many budding New York painters of the time—including Helen Frankenthaler and Lee Krasner—in the ways of color theory and modernist styles. Hofmann's work, with its juxtaposed swatches of opposing colors and uneven textures, is lesser known than that of his students, so this show will bring together nearly 70 works to spotlight how he translated European techniques for American audiences.
"THE JEWELED ISLE: Art from Sri Lanka"
December 9, 2018 – June 23, 2019, at LACMA
The first comprehensive survey of Sri Lankan art organized by an American museum, The Jeweled Isle: Art from Sri Lanka presents some 240 works addressing nearly two millennia of Sri Lankan history. The image of a bejeweled isle, first invoked in Greco-Roman accounts of Sri Lanka's precious gems, inspired numerous literary descriptions of the island's wealth and tropical beauty. The Jeweled Isle includes precious decorative objects fashioned from gold, silver, and ivory, and 19th-century photographs documenting Sri Lanka's extraordinary monuments, scenery, and flora. Several artworks convey the importance of sacred sites and relics in Sri Lankan Buddhist practice, while rare images of Hindu gods attest to the long and constant interaction between Sri Lanka and South India. Exquisite ivories, textiles, and furnishings further reflect nearly four centuries of European colonial presence in Sri Lanka and the dynamic interaction between local and foreign visual traditions. Featuring LACMA's rarely displayed collection of Sri Lankan art—one of the finest and most extensive in the U.S.—the exhibition presents a timely exploration and celebration of a geographically complex, ethnically diverse, and multicultural South Asian hub.
SEBASTIO SALGADO: Genesis
November 16, 2018 – June 23, 2019, at Museum für Gestaltung Zürich
Glaciers, densely populated by seals, endless Sahara dunes or mist-covered mountains in the Amazon rainforest: Sebastião Salgado depicts the earth as a creation of overwhelming beauty and thus sharpens our awareness of its preciousness. On over 30 journeys to all corners of the world, the French-Brazilian has created a photographic essay that simultaneously documents the majesty and the vulnerability of our environment. Salgado has sailed across oceans, scaled mountains, and crossed deserts. He has observed animals and met indigenous peoples in his endeavor to capture their environment and culture. The exhibition is a dramatic manifesto that not only touches visitors with its opulent black-and-white photographs, but also raises open questions about how we deal with the planet.
RAUSCHENBERG: The 1/4 Mile
October 28, 2018 – June 9, 2019, at LACMA
One of the most pioneering artists of the last century, Robert Rauschenberg (1925–2008) produced a diverse body of work characterized by experimentation, the use of varied mediums and methods, and cross-cultural exchange. Rauschenberg's monumental The 1/4 Mile or 2 Furlong Piece (1981–98) exemplifies these tenets of his artistic practice. Created over 17 years, the work is composed of 190 panels that, combined, measure approximately a quarter mile in length. An eclectic array of materials comprise the piece: textiles, mass media images, and photographs by the artist intermingle with bold passages of paint, while everyday objects such as chairs, cardboard boxes, and traffic lights add sculptural depth. Rauschenberg incorporated materials and photographs from the U.S., Asia, Europe, Latin America, and Northern Africa, including audio of ambient street sounds recorded during his travels.
The 1/4 Mile reveals the broad scope of Rauschenberg's practice through the multitude of mediums and techniques employed, and serves as a self-contained retrospective of his oeuvre. This presentation is the first time The 1/4 Mile or 2 Furlong Piece will be exhibited in its entirety.
FRIDA KHALO: Appearances Can Be Deceiving
February 8, 2019 – May 12, 2019, at Brooklyn Museum. NY
In 2014, curator Julie Rodrigues Widholm told ARTnews that Kahlo has "been so overshadowed by her celebrity that her work has become lost." Could this be the exhibition that finally saves the Mexican Surrealist painter from her own celebrity? For what is being billed as the largest Kahlo show in America in a decade, the Brooklyn Museum will home in on how the artist carefully crafted her identity. The show will include her clothes, personal possessions, and examples of contemporaneous films and propaganda, as well as works from the museum's Mesoamerican holdings. If the show's title is any proof, it will shed light on never-before-seen aspects of Kahlo, whose work frequently dealt with the complexities of being a female artist in the first half of the 20th century.
THE C C Land EXHIBITION: Pierre Bonnard. The Colour Of Memory
January 23 – May 6, 2019, at TATE Modern, London
This is the first major exhibition of Pierre Bonnard's work in the UK since the much-loved show at Tate 20 years ago. It will allow new generations to discover Bonnard's unconventional use of colour, while surprising those who think they already know him.
Born 1867, Bonnard was, with Henri Matisse, one of the greatest colourists of the early 20th century. He preferred to work from memory, imaginatively capturing the spirit of a moment and expressing it through his unique handling of colour and innovative sense of composition.
The exhibition concentrates on Bonnard's work from 1912, when colour became a dominant concern, until his death in 1947. It presents landscapes and intimate domestic scenes which capture moments in time – where someone has just left the room, a meal has just finished, a moment lost in the view from the window, or a stolen look at a partner.
VICTOR VASARELY: The Sharing of Form
February 6, 2019 – May 6, 2019, at Centre Pompidou, Paris
While the name Vasarely evokes colourful images playing with optic illusion, the whole scope and logic of this artist's work remains little known more than twenty years after his death. The last major Parisian exhibition devoted to the artist dates back to 1963 at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs. This new retrospective at the Centre Pompidou explores his work from all its facets, rather than focusing only on the aspects which would conform to the popular concept of Great Art. Through an outstanding collection of nearly eighty paintings, an architectural integration and a wide selection of multiples, discover a work which rose, like the DS or Pierre Paulin's armchairs, to the status of the great technical and cultural mythologies of its time.
This exhibition reveals Vasarely's 'software', which holds a dual dimension. As the heir of the historical avant-gardists of the early half of the 20th century, in particular Bauhaus, Victor Vasarely launched into a radical undertaking to secularise art. In other words, he was committed to defining ways of designing and producing which would enable widespread social distribution of art. At the same time, and this is the other major aspect of his work, Vasarely developed forms which caught the eye to a further degree than abstract painting in general and thus marked history as the inventor of kinetic art.
Vasarely studied in Budapest alongside the historical avant-gardists. His master, Sandor Bortnyik, was one of the major figures of Hungarian modernism. The first section of the exhibition reveals a Vasarely adapting the language of modernism to advertising and laying the foundations, in the 1930s and through his advertising works and various studies, of his creations to come. The Zèbres series is a striking precedent to the optical-kinetic forms which were to emerge two decades later.
At the dawn of the 1960s, Vasarely opened the way for what he called the 'plastic alphabet', consisting of a lexicon of six simple geometric forms embedded in squares of pure colour, the 'plastic units'. Reviving one of the founding dreams of abstraction, his ambition was to create a visual language of universal reach and thus offer global society the means to generate a new 'planetary folklore'. The set of shapes and colours offered a practically infinite number of combinations with multiple applications. Vasarely mastered their control through permutation and programming methods which reflected his interest in cybernetics and lent his paintings a foretaste of the digitalisation to come. In the second half of the 1960s, the pure hues of the 'plastic alphabet' were enriched with intermediate values which introduced colour gradients and chiaroscuro into the mosaic of paintings and formed the basis of some of the artist's most emblematic works.
Cosmic dreams, between science and fiction, were the subject of Vasarely's last explorations in form. It was a radiant, airy and multi-dimensional cosmos which inspired the major series of the 1960s and 1970s. Their titles bear witness to this, with references to 'signals from other worlds', to 'meta-galaxies' or the 'sound of quasars' and the 'beat of pulsars'. In 1982, the French astronaut Jean-Loup Chrétien even took a series of five prints by the artist on board the Soviet space station Salyut 7, thus achieving the interstellar ambition of Vasarely's work. This was the ultimate way to link the two major focus points of his work: space exploration, or the positivity of science in its most exemplary expression, and his love of distortions, geometric and optical eccentricities which abound in the world of science fiction.
December 22, 2018 – April 7, 2019, National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul
The exhibition will offer a chronological account of Duchamp's life and art. The first section explores the period from 1902 through 1912, when he experimented with different avant-garde styles ranging from Impressionism to Symbolism and Fauvism. It concludes with his highly original engagement with Cubism and his life-changing decision at the age of twenty-five to abandon the painter's craft and seek new ways of working.
The second section examines the crucial interval between 1912 and 1917, when Duchamp pushed past the boundaries of painting as conventionally understood. It was during these years that he generated the ideas for his magnum opus, The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even (also known as The Large Glass) (1915-23), and then embarked upon its construction after moving to New York. At the same time, Duchamp also created the first of his so-called readymades. Functional objects, such as his infamous sculpture Fountain (1917), were divorced from their utilitarian purpose and designated—as opposed to made—by Duchamp as works of art.
The third section follows Duchamp in Paris during the decades of the 1920s and 1930s, then back to New York as an émigré during World War II. Early in this period, he resolved to shift his vocation from art to chess, and went on to pursue chess with the commitment of a professional. At the same time, Duchamp invented a female persona named Rrose Sélavy and used this identity to pursue new projects.
The last section explores the remaining decades of his life when Duchamp achieved legendary status in the art world. It reflects upon themes that had long preoccupied Duchamp, including the erotic as a doctrine, and the aesthetics of realism and illusion. The exhibition concludes with materials illuminating the production of his final work, a three-dimensional construction built around a life-sized mannequin of a female nude, Étant donnés. He created it in near-total secrecy in his New York studio between 1946 and 1966.
Matthew Affron, the Muriel and Philip Berman Curator of Modern Art and curator of this exhibition, from the show's organizing museum, Philadelphia Museum of Art, stated: "Duchamp once slyly remarked that the Nude Descending a Staircase (No. 2) had in some ways overtaken his story, leaving him 'only a shadowy figure behind the reality of that painting.' In fact, Duchamp preferred to glide in relative silence through the artistic avant-garde, even as he profoundly changed the way in which we think about the creation and interpretation of art. His persona was deliberately cloaked in an aura of mystery."
ANDY WARHOL: From A to B and Back Again
Nov 12, 2018 – Mar 31, 2019, at Whitney Museum of American Art
Few American artists are as ever-present and instantly recognizable as Andy Warhol (1928–1987). Through his carefully cultivated persona and willingness to experiment with non-traditional art-making techniques, Warhol understood the growing power of images in contemporary life and helped to expand the role of the artist in society. This exhibition—the first Warhol retrospective organized in the U.S. since 1989—reconsiders the work of one of the most inventive, influential, and important American artists. Building on a wealth of new materials, research and scholarship that has emerged since the artist's untimely death in 1987, this exhibition reveals new complexities about the Warhol we think we know, and introduces a Warhol for the 21st century.
The exhibition positions Warhol's career as a continuum, demonstrating that he didn't slow down after surviving the assassination attempt that nearly took his life in 1968, but entered into a period of intense experimentation. The show illuminates the breadth, depth, and interconnectedness of the artist's production: from his beginnings as a commercial illustrator in the 1950s, to his iconic Pop masterpieces of the early 1960s, to the experimental work in film and other mediums from the 1960s and 70s, to his innovative use of readymade abstraction and the painterly sublime in the 1980s. His repetitions, distortions, camouflaging, incongruous color, and recycling of his own imagery challenge our faith in images and the value of cultural icons, anticipating the profound effects and issues of the current digital age.
JEWELRY: The Body Transformed
November 12, 2018 – February 24, 2019, at
The Met
What is jewelry? Why do we wear it? What meanings does it carry? Traversing time and space, this exhibition explores how jewelry acts upon and activates the body it adorns. This global conversation about one of the most personal and universal of art forms brings together some 230 objects drawn almost exclusively from The Met collection. A dazzling array of headdresses and ear ornaments, brooches and belts, necklaces and rings will be shown along with sculptures, paintings, prints, and photographs that will enrich and amplify the many stories of transformation that jewelry tells.
CONSTANTIN BRANCUSI: Sculpture
July 22, 2018 – February 24, 2019, at MoMA, NY
Poet Ezra Pound spoke of artist Constantin Brancusi's work as providing "the master keys to the world of form." Over a career that spanned half a century, Brancusi's innovations transformed sculpture as it had been known, and influenced generations of artists to come. After moving to Paris in 1904 from his native Romania, Brancusi affected the appearance of a Romanian peasant—a long beard, work shirt, and sandals—while embedding himself in avant-garde art circles. He soon began pushing modernist sculpture to the threshold of abstraction, developing a new, simplified vocabulary of graceful crescents, gleaming ovoids, and rough-hewn blocks that often evoked rather than resembled the things named in their titles, such as Bird in Space or Fish. He put the natural properties of his materials on display, carving directly into wood and stone and polishing metal to high reflectivity. The bases for his sculptures were often built of stacked elements—wood cubes, cylindrical slices, pyramidal blocks, or cruciform stones—becoming an integral component of the work itself and hinting at the possibility of infinite rearrangement, an idea that would prove fertile in future decades.
VIDEOGAMES: Design/ Play/ Disrupt
September 8, 2018 – February 24, 2019, at
The Victoria and Albert Museum
The show will open in the Fall of 2018 and will examine the most diverse and eclectic manifestations of gaming, including indie productions, eSports, and politics. The stated goal is to fully and deeply explore the social, cultural, and artistic impact of games. It is a relief to hear that the exhibition won't follow a chronological order, opting instead for a thematic display of artworks. Artifacts will cover a twenty year period (2000-2018).
Organized into three sections - hence the subtitle, Design, Play and Disrupt - the exhibition will cover aspects related to the production of innovative original narratives like The Last of Us and Journey, the ascent of bedroom and indie coding, the new DIY arcade scene (represented, for instance by Robin Baumgarten's Arcade Backpack), and the typologies of game spaces.
It will also juxtapose traditional/modern art with modern interpretations, for instance Rene Magritte's 1965 painting La Blanc Seing will be shown beside a section of the 2013 Cardboard Computer's game Kentucky Route Zero, which it inspired. There will be also interactive installations of spectacle and performance.
J. Paul Getty's first museum was on the shores of the Pacific Palisades in the 1970's, at his home, which he acquired in the f1950's, now called The Getty Villa. I first visited it in the seventies, driving up the steep driveway in my VW bug, and walking through the Italianate structure with a mishmash of stuff. Upon his death, the Trust took on a new venture, the purchase of swath of over one hundred acres above the Santa Monica Hills. Getty hired the then reigning architect, Richard Meier, to deign the modernist structure. After an alleged one billion dollar expenditure, it opened to the public in 1997. Rumor has it that the endowment, estimated at $3.2 billion, is larger than all the other museums in the world combined. Hence the power to Acquire Everything! My interest is in the photographic collection.
This publisher's recent visit to the Center brought nostalgia to mind. Upon my first viewings in the 1990's, I complained that the buildings interfered with the collection, and it's ostentatious design distracted from the appreciation of the extensive collection. Separate buildings stood like soldiers to be saluted. I have admire Meier's work at a distance, from the High Art Museum in Atlanta to his homes. But on this visit, I feel it is wearing very well; the travertine structure is warm and inviting, and aging with a lovely patina after twenty years. The public space with the columns and luscious gardens invite the public (free admission) to enjoy the complex and the surrounding spectacular view. Hear-hear to money well spent!
A recent Flaneur sighting in San Francisco! This fetching show featured 40 Impressionist paintings and pastels, including key works by Degas—many never before exhibited in the United States—as well as those by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Édouard Manet, Mary Cassatt, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and 40 exquisite examples of period hats.
Best known for his depictions of Parisian dancers and laundresses, Edgar Degas (French, 1834-1917) was enthralled with another aspect of life in the French capital—high-fashion hats and the women who created them. The artist, invariably well-dressed and behatted himself, "dared to go into ecstasies in front of the milliners' shops," Paul Gauguin wrote of his lifelong friend.
We have celebrated The Boulevardiers raison de'tre for five years now, founded on the French pre-occupation of strolling and window gazing in Paris, and London, and Rome. This Publisher was struck by a newly found term, "Faire du Lèche-Vitrines," which is crudely translated as "window licking." Now knowing the decorum of the French, I am convinced that they would not apply this term to their promenading in the trendy section, the Marais, of Paris, which is the center of all that is cool, hip and expensive. The original center of Paris, built in the 13th century by the Knights Templar, much has remained, avoiding destruction by City decree in 1964. The Boulevardiers strolled through this section last summer on the way to L'Orangrie and gazed covetously at the many shops, bakeries and patisseries... and could very well appreciate this phrase.
Guest Musing from The Boulevardiers "Muse" Sally Steele:
Never let it be said that the Boulevardiers don't celebrate all who wander in search of inspiration, or in daily observation. A recently published book, The Flâneuse, is a lively tome focusing on the French flâneuse, the feminine of flâneur: defined as a woman who is or who behaves like a flaneur; who is defined as an idle man-about-town.
Author Lauren Elkin: "The portraits I paint here attest that the flâneuse is not merely a female flâneur, but a figure to be reckoned with, and inspired by, all on her own…She is a determined, resourceful individual keenly attuned to the creative potential of the city, and the liberating possibilities of a good walk."
For some time, I have been lamenting whilst walking my town, enviously observing the abundance of hipster bistros and coffee bars populated all day and into the evening by those lucky enough to grab the time to simply sit and watch the world go by. But how oh so boring that would be!
Recently perusing the tales of Diego, the sire of Galapagos tortoises, I smiled having "met" Diego in the Galapagos several years ago. And when reading about the rich arts scene in Milan, funded mostly via the largesse of the fashion houses, my head was full of images of days spent wandering there, not so long ago. As I poured over my travel photos I saw Los Angeles, Lima, and Santiago; New York, Maui and Athens; Venice, Istanbul, and Marseilles; Cannes, Sydney, and Tokyo, and so many more. I walked for miles in for London, from my favorite museum, The V&A, to Harrod's, to the trendy parts of town with all the big name galleries. Ditto for New York. And Rome, major renovations to ancient and Renaissance sites currently underway, again due to the largesse of the world's fashion leaders. And oh, Paris, strolling in the Tuileries in the drizzle after a glorious morning spent at l'Orangerie. Then there were some standout strolls on La Croisette amidst the excitement of the awards season. I live a fanciful life!
I'm lucky enough to be partner to the ultimate flâneur, who has so graciously guided me into becoming a full-fledged flâneuse.
Here's to women everywhere, and to living a life that takes the good walk, and turns it into the truly great walk.
More reflective of how important this closing was than the claim that, 'the owners let it go,' were the results of the auction this week of items from the restaurant. The items went off the hook pricewise. The sign alone, estimated at $5-7,000 sold for $96,000! The ashtrays went for $10,000! (A fifteen-hour marathon auction!) This enthusiasm for artifacts, not only harkens back to the MAD MEN ERA, but also revered to very recently, indicates the longing for a place where the elite and the common folk, albeit New Yorker's of means, can mingle and gawk at one another in a gorgeous setting. I had my last martini there, last fall.
This Publisher had the fortunate experience to eat there a few times, both with Time Inc. Editors, and with my parents. My Dad exclaimed…"$6.00 for carrots!" once in the POOL ROOM. I did not give it a second thought. I always coveted the chain ball curtains that lined the Grill Room windows to the outside. I intended for years to install them in my home, and even tried to source them at one point unsuccessfully. But the spirit of the restaurant was unique. There was the mention in the Metropolitan Section of the New York Times, of a conversation overheard by the Maître D' on the phone when asked to forward a message to a patron at the bar who was Indian. He inquired, Dot or Feather?
Everything about the place bespoke of power and success. The NY times recently published the seating chart of the patrons. A veritable who's who of the publishing and financial world of the US. It did shift occasionally over the years since its opening in 1959, from various power brokers and intuitions. A number of the items were reserved for the Metropolitan Museum's collection. This included the mid-night blue sofas designed by Philip Johnson. Martha Stewart was in attendance. She blurted out that she wished the nickel wine coasters, designed by the infamous architectural critic, Louie Huxtable, to be used at her 'next' wedding. A notable Saarinen Tulip table went for $36,000!
There has always been this murky history to the restaurant's design. The renowned Mies van der Rohe designed the Seagram's Building for the liquor magnate family, Bronfman. At that time, Philip Johnson was his assistant. Johnson claimed later to be a partner in design which has been disputed, but he was definitely involved in the design of the Four Seasons, which came a few years later.
Mr. Niccolini, the restaurant owner, who used salty language to refer to the building owner, ended the auction carrying a platter of pink cotton candy, a signature desert for the eatery, across the Pool Room upon which various patrons pulled off sections. A patron who flew up from Charleston to pick up 'whatever' she could proclaimed, "A place like this won't happen again!"

Italian Fascism finally dies…with the recent death of supporter Licio Gelli. I must say I have a weakness for Fascist architecture. Visiting the Valle de los Caídos ("Valley of the Fallen"), a Catholic basilica and a monumental memorial to the dictator Francisco Franco of Spain shot chills of fear and admiration through my veins. Talk about "reductivism" at its purist, even the most libertarian minded person gasps at this monument. The scoundrel was convicted numerous times for bank fraud and embezzlement but never did hard time, due to his "health" but managed lived till 96 years of age. He personified the glorious phrase only Italians could invent, "dietrologia" which means that the widely held suspicion that behind official government narrative lurks a more sinister explanation.
His political and financial shenanigans set the bar for the unbridled greed that we see on Wall Street today.
The raking light of fall brings out the Flaneur in me, the season of Flanerie. Elaine Sciolino reminds us of the first establishment of this pastime in literature, "Tableau de Paris," a twelve volume set of observations the gestalt the of 'street' in Paris. Half a century later, this sites' figurehead, Charles Baudelaire, demarked the 'wander-spectator' activity as flaneur. "The crowd is his habitat, as is air for the bird or water for the fish" he quoted.
This activity is so important to the French, that Hermes created a pop-up museum on the left bank to honor its significance. The artistic director of the project, Pierre-Alexis Dumas also created an illustrated book on the subject. It's a small single room structure with four window displays, including from the collection of a past president, Emile Hermes.
To observe yes, to interact no. The sounds, the smells and the visual jewels glistening in the shop windows- draws us to the streets of Paris, or London or our favorite ville, Roma. And of course, the most animated of them all – the people who stroll and sit and observe in the cafes, not the harried New Yorkers who are irritated by strollers in their path. Years ago, I proposed a story for Life Magazine, on the important promenades of the world, but to no avail. Sadly, it is not an American occupation.
Whether I imagined it as a child or I actually saw the magazine HOLIDAY, I knew it was a gem of graphic design and photography. I knew Slims Aarons was a rock star, even when I was a young photographer. Though I was more interested in 'real' journalism, I admired the veneer he lay over celebrities and glamour, locales-who did not want to be there? A few art directors changed the face of magazines - the "golden age of magazines": Alex Brodovitch, Frank Zachary and Roger Black. They produced a short-lived magazine, Portfolio in 1949, regarded as the "definitive graphic magazine" by The New York Times. Zachary died at age 101 yesterday in East Hampton, NY.
Brodovitch changed the thinking on typography, especially for Harper's Bazaar, that I subscribed to for years just to see his work (overlaying type); Zachary changed the importance of photography in magazines. The weeklies were in full bloom in the 1960's & 70's, Saturday Evening Post, Life, Look, Town and Country and Esquire were employing photographers and giving them extravagant exposure. Zachary assigned the greats: Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa and Arnold Newman.
Born to a Croatian immigrant parents (1914), named Frank Zaharija, his father a steel worker in Pittsburgh, Zachary never attended college, he climbed his way up through hard work. He art directed at Holiday (1951-1964) including being managing editor, Town and Country, Modern Photography to which I subscribed as a child, Travel and Leisure.
I think his brilliance is best described by a friend, Owen Edwards, "Like any good anthropologist, he studied this particular tribe, figured out what most interested them and their habits, and found writers [including Faulkner] and photographers who could show their world in the most entertaining way."
Publisher's Musings: Dateline Saigon ~ January 26, 2015
As publisher, I have vowed not to include politics. But after visiting the War Remnants Museum here, which brought tears to my eyes, I think my renewal of the power of photography urged me to reflect on this exhibition, which covers the second floor, of heart wrenching imagery. In an era that has eroded the value of images with self-indulging selfies, seeing photos by some of my heroes, Larry Burrows, Robert Capa and Phillip Jones Griffith (whom I met) rocked me to the core. Burrows and Capa died here. Visitors seemed unable to focus on them.
Life Magazine is well represented here with large reproductions. As an Air Force cadet, I was frightened by what I saw. The images contributed to my request for a Conscientious Objector status. It was considered the first 'live' coverage of a war. I remember clearly one issue with tiny pictures of the 58,000 men who died. Both the imagery of the devastation of incursions wreaked on the Vietnamese and the impact the war had on the shooters, it was the darkest period of U.S. history. In the name of stopping Communism, our inexcusable use of Agent Orange is illustrated in the museum in unfathomable images. It is the power of this photography that is widely considered to be what initiated President Johnson's withdrawal from the war. Despite the pain, it was life-affirming to see the power of photography!
This is Picasso's umpteenth fifteen minutes of fame:
His renovated mansion in Paris, Musée Picasso Paris, has just re-opened after an exorbitant five year renovation, ribbon cut by François Hollande himself, but under the dark shadow of the Cultural minister, Korean-born Fleur Pellerin, who declared she has not 'read' a book in years and could not name a book of the recently awarded Nobel Prize winner for Literature, Patrick Modiano, France's fifteenth in the category.
Back on home turf, there are two private gallery showings of his work that rival any museum exhibitions, in fact many of the pieces were loaned from museums. They almost seem to challenge one another, since they are both top tier galleries, The Gagosian Gallery in Chelsea and Pace Gallery, both in New York. The Gagosian is a photograph-based exhibition, titled "Picasso & the camera" curated by an old friend of his, John Richardson, designed by a Las Vegas show designer David Korens. There are many images of his various mistresses, s well as films. Despite his reputation as a misogynist, the museum's president, Anne Baldassari, denies this but claims he only had difficulty maintaining relationships. I saw the MoMa exhibition in the 1990's of his with a room dedicated to his various wives and mistresses and the progressive horrification of their faces as he lost interest in them. Quite revealing. The Pace exhibition focuses in a different direction. On his enduring relationship with his last wife Jacqueline Roque, until his death, with tender imagery and a loving hand.
As an artist, I cannot help but to admire his vitality and fecundity. I read a memoir of life in the South of France, especially the summer jaunts to the country with the likes of Francoise Gilot. To top off the adoration, the exhibition at the Met of Lauder's Cubist collection (Interesting Openings below) features many of his paintings from that period.
On every trip to NY, I visit one of my favorite urban spaces, The Grand Central Oyster Bar. Between my passion for oysters and my adoration for Guastavino's tile craft, this is my ideal spot. We traveled to 103rd Street this last trip to enjoy a beautifully illustrated and informative exhibition at The Museum of New York, of his sumptuous tilework throughout New York employed by McKim, Mead and White, and NY City (including the recently uncovered bottom to the Queensborough Bridge, now a Farmer's Market).
Guastavino tile is the "Tile Arch System" patented in the United States in 1885 by Valencian (Spanish) architect and builder Rafael Guastavino (1842–1908). Guastavino vaulting is a technique for constructing robust, self-supporting arches and architectural vaults using interlocking terracotta tiles and layers of mortar to form a thin skin, with the tiles following the curve of the roof as opposed to horizontally (corbelling), or perpendicular to the curve (as in Roman vaulting). This is known as timbrel vaulting, because of supposed likeness to the skin of a timbrel or tambourine. It is also called "Catalan vaulting" and "compression-only thin-tile vaulting".
Guastavino tile is found in some of New York's most prominent Beaux-Arts landmarks and in major buildings across the United States.

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences:
The ancestors of octopuses and squid once sported hard shells, but when did they lose their "mobile homes" and become agile, soft-bodied swimmers? A new study finds that this change may have occurred during the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.
Squishy creatures like squid and octopuses rarely leave behind well-preserved fossils. That has left scientists perplexed over when in the creatures' evolutionary history these cephalopods lost their shells. Researchers have now used a mix of fossil and genetic models to solve the puzzle.
The reason? The loss of shells made the ancient relatives of the modern-day octopus, squid and cuttlefish nimbler, a feature that likely helped these animals catch prey and evade predators, Vinther said.
The heavy shells led to the demise of many cephalopod ancestors, because they couldn't "keep up with the 'new [shell-less] kids on the block,'" Vinther told Live Science.
The researchers made the discovery using a molecular clock technique, which helped them determine when different cephalopod branches sprouted on the family tree.

Christian dating services in Twin Oaks 74368 OKare no longer taboo among singles for the easy reason that each year, the portion of singles using these websites keeps increasing. Exactly what's the reason for the rise in use of Godly dating services? The answer is truly simple: Numerous Christian songs are satisfying their dating matches online.
There are lots of advantages of using Jesus centered dating services. Here are simply a few:
Godly Dating Service in Twin Oaks 74368 OK
Don't laugh, however one person I know compares going to a Believer dating website to travelling to Haagen-Daz or Baskin Robbins: You have your choice of virtually any flavor you want. Yummy!
Seriously, however, due to the a great deal of single women and guys using Christian dating services, a single Christian has a much larger number of prospective dates and mates from which to make a choice.
A Christian Matchmaking Service in Twin Oaks 74368 OK Allows Targeted Searches
Somewhat related to the ice cream analogy (by the way, Mint-Chocolate-Chip is my favourite; oh wait, or is it Chocolate-Chip-Mint?), the big search databases of some dating online websites like Christian Mingle, now Relationships.com permits Christians dating online to "put in their order" utilizing such variables as age, denomination, occupation, race, appearance and the local area of where one wishes to find prospective soulmates. Best of all, your prospective dating match is likewise trying to find the same thing.
Signing up with a Christian love Service Conserves Time
A Jehova dating service can save time for busy songs (like Christian single moms and dads, etc) who do not have the time or energy to discover a date in more standard ways. Single Christians who turn to a Christian online match making service have the convenience of meeting someone out of the comfort of their own houses, 24/7. And let's be genuine, with the average size of the common evangelical church hovering at around 90 souls, the pickin's are typically slim at finest. And just how much time have you spent primping yourself to go out to singles activities only to be dissatisfied at the close of the night?
A Faith based Dating Service Develops Interaction Abilities in Daters
Consulting with other single people on a dating service helps you refine your conversational abilities. It's likewise an outstanding possibility to reveal real ideas by means of Christian chat rooms, e-mail and instant messaging, without feeling uncomfortable as one might personally. By the time the Christian dating site couple finally does meet, they will be far more comfortable with each other, having laid down a strong psychological foundation.
Just recently, I read a few of the charming letters President John Adams composed his partner, Abigail. When they were separated by 100s of miles. In those days there were no telephones, and pony-delivered mail took days to obtain to its destination. But oh, the charm, enthusiasm and depth of those letters! Okay, we're not in Colonial America, and I might be a charming idealist, however communicating through an online Christian dating site can assist songs experience a little of this magic.
Superior Christian dating websites in Twin Oaks 74368 OK will offer plenty of support and services for Christian dating. We both know that we feel much better about online dating if there's support for your own values and beliefs. Does the website permit you to ask questions anonymously that you may be too embarrassed to ask members of your own Church neighborhood or peers? Never undervalue the reassurance that you can get from being able to get answers to your dating concerns and interacting with others who have compassion for your dating issues.
You do not need to be young to be utilizing the Christian dating networks, simply genuine. Life situations may have you outside the normal single age group and this can make it much more challenging to discover an other half or partner. Nevertheless with Christian dating websites it will be simpler for you to find somebody in the appropriate age for yourself.

Middletown's first multiplex movie theater could be open for business in time for Thanksgiving, with a church, restaurants and retail shops to follow.
Middletown's first multiplex movie theater could be open for business in time for Thanksgiving, with a church, restaurants and retail shops to follow.
Westown Movies, a 12-screen theater with roughly 1,800 seats, is slated to be the first business to open in the 42-acre commercial development phase of Westown Town Center, which is slated to soon begin construction off Merrimac Avenue, just north of Del. Route 301 and immediately west of Walmart.
"Right now, if you live in the area and want to go to the movies, you have to go to Dover or Regal (People's Plaza in Glasgow), but soon those people will be coming to Middletown," said Jim Tancredi of DSM Commercial, the real estate broker and consultant for the retail segment of the project. "We think the traffic that this will draw is going to create a lot of value for the other restaurants and retail shops that also will be a part of this project."
Tancredi said he estimates the theater could attract as many as 400,000 people a year.
Although the owner of the future theater has not been announced, Tancredi said it is an independent company that operates other theaters in the region.
A groundbreaking for Westown Movies is tentatively scheduled for May with completion currently slated for mid-November, he said.
Middletown Town Council on Monday unanimously approved changes to the designed layout of the commercial project, which was originally approved in the late 1990s as a part of the 2,000-acre residential, commercial and industrial development known as Westown.
Today, the various aspects of that development project have added nearly 500 homes to Middletown through the creation of neighborhoods such as St. Anne's, South Ridge and Spring Arbor, as well as 225 acres of commercial and industrial development that have included Walmart, Kohl's, Walgreens and Chick-fil-A, among others.
The economy has had something of a chilling factor on the project in recent years and another 1,600 homes and nearly 650 acres of commercial and industrial development are approved, but have yet to be constructed, according to town officials.
"The idea from the start was to create a lifestyle community that offers homes, offices and shopping, and I think we're reaching a critical mass in terms of attracting some bigger, higher-end shops and restaurants," Tancredi said. "A big part of this project has always been an entertainment component that would help make this a destination for anyone living or visiting the area, and we think we will have achieved a big step toward that with this movie theater."
In addition to a 50,000-square-foot theater, the newly-approved site design of the commercial project calls for about 120,000-square-feet of retail space and a nearly 19,000 square-foot church to be located immediately adjacent to the theater.
The church building will eventually become the new home of Stone's Throw Church, which has been meeting at Appoquinimink High School since 2009.
"We're in the process now of completing the purchase of the land, and our goal is to have the new church ready in the next two to three years," said Dan Betters, the head pastor at Stone's Throw.
Betters said the total cost of the project would be about $2.5 to $3 million, including the land purchase. Of that, the congregation of about 400 has pledged $1.2 million, while the remainder will be financed.
"Right now, it's still all conceptual, but the plan is for it to include a large gathering space capable of holding up to 650 people with a stage built for presentations, concerts and community events, as well as office space and a children's theater," Betters said. "The location is really ideal for us because we wanted to stay in town limits and to be somewhere that is sort of in the middle of everything. Wherever the community is hanging out, that's where we want to be."

Hugs, SannaS
Prima has out done themselves - these are wonderful!ReplyDelete
I am not creative, just normal, add a few here a few there!
Thanks for the peek.
Sandra ltb
There's lots that can be done with Prima flowers. I add stickles to them, ink them, create bouquets with them, make little pieces of jewellery... the list goes on. :)ReplyDelete
Prima just gets more & more gorgeous! Right now I am doing a either a layout or a mini book (haven't decided which yet) for a friend who just had a baby. These would be perfect as embellies! They would make the beautiful finishing touch.ReplyDelete
I agree, what can´t we do with these gorgeous flwers?? I can think of a million things to use them for, but I guess, it´ll be too long a post to mention them all ha ha ha.ReplyDelete
But right now, I´m onto making some great calendars for many friends with different styles of flowers on them, and it just makes them perfect, and I can sure see loads of possibilities in these new ones here. They´re just gorgeous. I just love flowers, they always makes me feel in a much better mood.
I absolutely love the floret collection, especially those roses with text on them... I I'm a cardmaker, of course these would be for cards... Great for a simple "thinking of you"...ReplyDelete
WOW what great Prima flowers! I'm usually just a card maker, but these flowers are pretty enough to be used to make some really adorable headgear and fashion accessories! =D Thanks for the chance to win!ReplyDelete
I've redecorated two lamp shades by adding prima flowers and diamante sprays, and they look amazing. Always remember to use a low watt energy bulb when attaching items to enhance lamps etc.ReplyDelete
Suzi x
Wow ... I have always been a Prima fan. And now.....WOW! I love adding them to my handmade cardsReplyDelete
These flowers are beautiful enough to use for home decor projects. Wow!ReplyDelete
These are stunning. I'd love some to decorate a jewellery box that I'm making. xReplyDelete

I'm so not a flower girl, but if I won some flowers perhaps I could work outside my box.ReplyDelete
Well I just stopped over to check out these most gorgeous flowers and had no idea about blog candy! I have some of the large Sizzix storage boxes for my numerous dies and want to alter all of them. For sure, I would use these flowers to pretty up these boxes! Lovely flowers!ReplyDelete
They are all so beautiful!ReplyDelete
I could use them for decorating cards of course!
They would be great detail on them!

I use Prima's pretty much on everything from layouts to cards to altered objects.

I am suprised, that you don't mention Primas stamps. They are created to stamp patterns on flowers ;) I think it's a great idea!ReplyDelete
These new Prima flowers are so beautiful - just love it! What can be created with them - everything? I'm sure. Just add it to a card for spring look, or any frame will be amazing with any of them. another idea - embelishment for curtain, or for a hat or for any dress... in fact I cna not find a thing which can be WITHOUT a flower!ReplyDelete
You could put them on some type of decorative leaf vine....then put them over a door or up a handrail by some stairs, etc.!ReplyDelete
Or put them on a piece of shaped chipboard and add it as wall art!
My favorite thing to make with Prima flowers is home decor items so I can see them :)ReplyDelete
You could make jewellery, hair clips, hair bands, brooches, add to a handbag, shoes, the list goes on.....ReplyDelete
