Out on the Wire: The Storytelling Secrets of the New Masters of Radio is Jessica Abel's investigation—in comics form—of how exceptional radio shows such as This American Life and Radiolab collect, curate, and shape nonfiction stories. Abel first met Ira Glass in 1999, when she collaborated with him on Radio: An Illustrated Guide, a 32-page comic book that takes readers behind the scenes of TAL.
That led to the following more planned, but still free-flowing, Skype conversation for Proximity about nonfiction comics.
KH: Thanks for agreeing to do this. I know you've been on a deadline. How's the current project?
JA: Good. Working on the new book, Growing Gills. What do you think of that title, by the way?
KH: I like it. Tell me more about it.
JA: It builds on the work that I've been doing coming out of Out on the Wire. This is a book about creative focus.
KH: Oh, I like the title even better now.
JA: Glad to hear it.
KH: I'm going to use this opportunity to talk about nonfiction in the comics world, following up on Out on the Wire. In the creative writing world, we think a lot about what it means to write fiction versus writing nonfiction. For comics artists, that discussion doesn't seem to come up as much. What's your sense?
JA: You mean, do comics artists divide themselves so concretely?
KH: Yes. In creative writing programs, it's structural—you're taking nonfiction workshops, or fiction workshops, and so there's a lot of discussion around what that means.
JA: So far, in comics, there are no programs that divide it up that way. There's a lot of flow in the comics world between fiction writers and nonfiction authors that are working in memoir or personal stories. Comics journalists are a bit different. They might do some memoir but mostly they are journalists. They really do identify as nonfiction writers and talk about the role played by reporting and research and sources in their work.
KH: So there's the comics journalists over here, and the people who are doing character-driven narrative over there.
JA: Well, there's a spectrum, of course, and memoir is the middle ground. Fiction writers might do memoir, and comics journalists might do memoir, but fiction writers rarely move into the comics journalism realm or vice-versa. People like Josh Neufeld and Joe Sacco are firmly on the journalism end. They both have done memoir comics, but even their memoir comics have a very reportorial approach. But there are lots of ways that nonfiction comics are doing character-based stories. It's not just reportage. There are people right now doing memoirs having to do with medical issues. There's lots of history comics too. There's a new comic about Andy Warhol, and one about Harry Houdini, and one about Ernest Shackleton. There are comics about science, math, philosophical subjects. There's an incredibly wide range of nonfiction comics. And that's because comics aren't a genre; it's a medium. It's a narrative medium, so it spans the entire range of possibility. There's comics poetry, for example.
KH: You make a really important point—the range of nonfiction comics is much broader than people may realize. More than I realized before this conversation, and I read a lot of comics. Take something like [John Lewis's] March, for example. It's a nonfiction comic. Or Lauren Redniss's Radioactive, about Marie Curie. Some of these have become really important comics, but they don't fit neatly into memoir or comics journalism.
JA: Even Out on the Wire is not comics journalism. It has journalistic elements—I interviewed people—but I'm following a thesis. It's really an essay. Staying with books about the radio world, Josh Neufeld's book with Brooke Gladstone [The Influencing Machine] is an essay.
KH: That's such a great book. I love that book.
JA: It's a great book.
KH: I wouldn't have used that word, essay, but it's a really useful word for this kind of comic. It's a long essay. A long essay in comics form?
JA: What would you call it? Because I struggle with that too.
KH: A longform narrative? Longform is a term of art these days.
JA: That's too imprecise. A profile could be longform.
KH: You're right. I'll need to do some more research. Maybe our readers will tell us.
JA: I have a student who's creating a comic book about Depo-Provera, the birth control injection. She's an academic, a tenured professor of anthropology, and now she's trying to move from academic work to work that's, let's say, more readable, and she's trying to do that in comics form. To me, that's an essay, but essay suggests something short. And this is going to be a long book.
KH: I'll put my people on it. My nonfiction people.
JA: It would be helpful to have a word to describe it.
KH: I think it's important, generally, for readers to have more of a sense of the range and impact of nonfiction comics. March comes to mind as a good example, because it's gotten so much great attention lately. But there are some incredibly influential comics that don't fall neatly into Alison Bechdel memoir or Joe Sacco journalism. There have always been "explainer comics"—comic books that convey the basic ideas of, say, Marxism or Freud, and a lot of people grew up learning from those. Today's biography and science comics are much more sophisticated and aesthetically interesting versions of those.
JA: There are nonfiction comics that do an incredibly good job of explaining ideas. One of the pivotal comics for me was Larry Gonick's The Cartoon History of the Universe. I read that when I first graduated from college. [Abel first started making comics while a student at University of Chicago.] I had read a lot of history, but seeing it in comics form was important. He has a very particular point of view about how history works—focusing on movements of people and connections between historical epochs and different peoples. He gave me a sense of "what is history" that I had never gotten from my history classes.
KH: That leads into the next question—what were your models for doing Out on the Wire?
JA: I looked very closely at The Influencing Machine and talked to Josh about how he put his book together. Partly because of the radio connection, and also because there are ideas in it. How do you convey ideas in comics form? How do you make a concept into a concrete image? He used a technique that I had also used back in Radio: An Illustrated Guide. It's the Abstracted Avatar. In Josh's book, a visually simplified version of Brooke Gladstone is always talking, leading the reader through the book. So I resurrected that. It adds a meta-layer—of me, or Ira Glass, or other characters, who can talk about what's happening in the "actualities," to use radio-speak.
KH: That's the great breakthrough of Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics.
JA: That's where I got it from! When I was working on Radio: An Illustrated Guide, in 1998 and 1999, I borrowed the technique from Understanding Comics.
KH: This helps explain why books like Understanding Comics, which I've taught dozens of times, or Out on the Wire, which I used in a Carlow University undergraduate class last year, are such effective teaching tools. You have an avatar who serves as a stand-in for the reader.
JA: Exactly. And one way I built on this technique—though I didn't realize it until I was deep into working on the material—is to use interns at the radio shows as avatars, as stand-ins for students. I did it in Radio: An Illustrated Guide, though I don't think I realized what I was doing at first. When writing about Transom Workshop for Out on the Wire, Julia DeWitt—who's now a big-time, fancy producer, but at the time was totally green, learning everything—I followed her around as she learned and depicted that in the book. It mirrors what the reader is doing, learning everything as you go along.
KH: There's something technical that's happening in each of these books that allows the reader to place themselves right there in the pages.
KH: And then, as the teacher—as in a comic book—you might let the action roll forward a little bit, and then say to the students, "Pause, and look at me, and let's discuss this." The comics panel becomes a stand-in for the classroom.
JA: It's possible to do it in prose—you can bold something, or highlight it, or repeat it—but it tends to be clunky. When I tried to write a novel, I felt as if I were writing with one hand tied behind my back. There are lots of things that prose is great at, of course. But if I were trying to depict an action scene, I would have to explain where everything was. In comics, you just make a picture. It's all there.

A cross‐country romance blooms thanks to social media.
Kathy Wilcox Mabry and Tom Prost married 11‐11‐11 in Phoenix. Photo by Emily Carrol Photography.
For Tom Prost, BS '78, Kathy Wilcox Mabry, BJ '77, was the one who got away.
His crush on his co‐worker at Green Pepper Pizza in downtown Columbia was so strong he memorized her schedule to arrange "chance" encounters on campus. Alas, Mabry was dating someone else, so Prost never shared his feelings. Still, thoughts of her lingered after graduation. In 1979, while ostensibly visiting his brother, he dropped by her Albuquerque, N.M., office. They did not meet, but he left a photograph he had taken of a St. Louis park. She sent him a book of poems in return.
In the mid‐1980s, Mabry, then married and living in Phoenix, came across an address book with Prost's name and called him. They chatted, and she mentioned she was married. They didn't speak again for almost 25 years. Both Mabry and Prost were divorced in the late '90s, and though they continued to think of each other, each assumed the other was happily married.
But in 2009, Prost searched for Mabry on Facebook. He sent a message, and she responded. He confessed his feelings for her while in college. Long emails and telephone calls preceded monthly flights to visit. Despite juggling careers, children, time and distance, the couple's relationship blossomed. They married on 11‐11‐11 in Phoenix. Their story appeared in the Dec. 2, 2011, New York Times.
Mabry will move to St. Louis where Prost works.
"It's great to have a little history with someone," she says.
History — and a future.

Qutb-ad-Din Ilghazi II fou emir ortúquida de Mardin i Mayyafarikin (1176-1184), fill de Najm-ad-Din Alpi I. La seva mare era una princesa germana de l'emir turc d'Akhlat Sukman II, que va exercir sobre Ilghazi una notable influència. Segons Miquel el Sirià la successió va esdevenir el 20 de juliol de 1176 a Mardin, Mayyafarikin i Ras al-Ayn (el domini sobre Dunaysir fou posterior). Va portar el títol de màlik (rei) i amir (emir) o rei dels amirs (màlik al-umarà) i com els altres ortúquides portava el nominal títol de xa del Diyar Bakr (xah Diyar Bakr) tot i que mai va regnar a la capital d'aquest territori Amida.

Va combatre contra dos oncles (no se sap si paterns o materns, ja que dos historiadors ho assenyalen cadascun d'una manera) senyors d'Hanu (moderna Hene al nord d'Amida o Diyarbekir) i de Dara, que van haver de reconèixer la seva sobirania (ja havien estat vassalls en temps del seu pare). Poc després de rebre l'homenatge dels dos homes va caure malalt però es va recuperar.

Va derrotar a grups àrabs esdevinguts turbulents als que va matar molts homes i camells (12000 diuen les cròniques, sens dubte una exageració). Després va avançar cap a Bira (moderna Birecik).

Sukman II d'Akhlat va organitzar una coalició (primavera de 1183) amb Izz-ad-Din Massud I de Mossul (que era cosí d'Ilghazi) per aturar la invasió de Mesopotàmia per Saladí. Però les forces col·ligades no van fer res i a la mort de Sukman II, l'exèrcit d'Ilghazi apareix al costat de Saladí al que havia acompanyat a Síria (maig/juny de 1184).

Ilghazi va morir poc després, el 9 de setembre de 1184. Va deixar dos fills: Hussam-ad-Din Yuluk Arslan i al-Màlik al-Mansur Nàssir-ad-Din Artuk Arslan, que van succeir (un després de l'altre) el seu pare (1184-1201 i 1201-1239).

de Looz, mort le , est comte de Looz de 1145 à 1171 et comte de Rieneck de 1155 à 1171, chevalier d'Empire ou Reichsritter du chapitre de Mayence.

Biographie
Il est fils d', comte de Looz et de Rieneck, et d'Agnès de Bavière, fille d', comte palatin de Bavière, et sœur d', duc de Bavière.

Il est selon un document de 1155 avoué et protecteur de l'abbaye d'Averbode, fondé par son père, et avoué d'Aschaffenbourg. Il fait bâtir la citadelle de Brustem, en principe pour protéger sa bonne ville de Saint-Trond, mais en pratique pour réduire les prétentions de l'armée de la commune bourgeoise.

Il maintient sur le siège épiscopal d'Utrecht, Herman, seigneur de Horn, contre ses nombreux ennemis ; il a tout au long de son règne de nombreux ennuis et démêlés avec les comtes de Namur, de Duras et d'Asbourg.

En 1171, il entreprend le saccage de biens extérieurs et le siège de Saint-Trond, mais ses troupes mercenaires sont mises en déroute par l'armée compacte de la ville, alliée au comte de Duras. Il se réfugie dans son château et sa bonne ville de Looz, assiégés par les belligérants victorieux. Il y meurt le .

Il est inhumé à Looz.

Filiation
Il épouse Agnès de Metz, héritière de la maison de Longwy, fille de  († 1145), comte de Metz et de Hombourg et de Mathilde de Dabo, elle-même fille d', comte de Moha, et d'Eguisheim et de Dabo (du droit de sa première épouse Heilwig de Dabo), et de sa seconde femme Ermesinde de Luxembourg, fille de , héritière du comté de Luxembourg et de Longwy.

Ce mariage lui apporte des droits sur le Luxembourg, revendiqué par les comtes de Metz, mais ces derniers ne peuvent pas obtenir le comté, et de son côté, Louis de Looz ne peut que récupérer la bannière des comtes de Luxembourg pour créer son écu.

D'Agnès de Metz, il a :
 Arnoul († 1159) ;
  († 1191), comte de Looz, puis de Rieneck ;
 Hugues († ca 1172) ;
 Imagina (ou Imaine) de Looz († 1214), mariée en 1180 à , comte de Louvain ;
 Agnès († 1191), mariée en 1157 à  († 1183), duc de Bavière ;
 Bonne, mariée à  († 1201), seigneur du pays de Malines, avoué de la ville de Malines ;
 Laurette († avant 1184), mariée à Gilles de Montaigu († avant 1193), comte de Duras. Séparée en 1174, elle se remarie en 1176 à  (1160 † 1214), comte de Bar ;
 Gertrude, abbesse de Munsterbilzen.

Our daughter and her two girls are coming to stay with us this week through the Holiday Season. We have friends coming to stay with us for New Years Eve too. I will try and publish on a regular basis through the rest of the year, but may very well take a few days off. This time of year not much is happening. The traders are ready to go home on vacation. Anyway, the world is supposed to come to an end on Friday, so just in case the prophecy is right, why worry about next week.
Here is the most important article today.
The latest round of quantitative easing made gold "even more attractive" and owning the metal should be considered as part of a diversified portfolio, analysts at bond giant Pacific Investment Management Co. said in a white paper posted Tuesday on the company's website.

The Nether Edge Hospital was a health facility in Union Road, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England. The main building, known as the Kingswood Building, remains a Grade II listed building.

History
The facility has its origins in the Ecclesall Bierlow Union Workhouse which was designed by William Flockton and opened in 1844. The dining hall and nurses' home were damaged by enemy bombing in December 1940 during the Second World War. It became Nether Edge Hospital in 1929 and joined the National Health Service in 1948. The main hospital closed in 1990 and most of the site was acquired by Gleeson Homes in 1997 and subsequently developed for residential use. Some of the newer buildings, located off Osborne Road, were retained by the NHS and amalgamated to form the Michael Carlisle Centre which was officially opened as a mental health facility by the Duchess of Gloucester in October 1999.

Medical cannabis 'a back-door attempt to alter drug laws'
Leslie Sanders
Activists are using medicine as an excuse to push the social agenda of legalising cannabis, an NHS psychiatrist has said.
Writing for the Daily Mail, Dr Max Pemberton said the current push to legalise medical cannabis is simply a "back-door attempt to make recreational use legal".
He also said he is suspicious that the resurgence of interest in recreational drugs for mental health conditions is not driven by scientific research.
'Destruction'
He said: "As a doctor who has worked in drug addiction, this makes me profoundly uneasy. Time and again I have seen the destruction these drugs can cause."
While cannabis can have medicinal properties, he explained, typical practice is to identify and isolate the chemical responsible.
It can then be produced "in a tablet, where the dose and purity can be consistent".
Scientists are currently trying to identify the chemical in cannabis which helps alleviate the symptoms of conditions such as epilepsy. They hope a medication can be created which can then be prescribed by doctors.
"But rather than identify the components, campaigners insist we should simply legalise cannabis for medicinal use", Dr Pemberton added.
"Making illegal drugs medically acceptable is the first step in making them socially acceptable.
"If decriminalisation is what you really want, at least be honest about it. Don't try to use medicine to push a social agenda."
The psychiatrist's comments came ahead of a decision by the Royal College of Nursing to lobby the Government to decriminalise cannabis.
The nurses' vote went beyond calling for the legalisation of cannabis for medical use, going as far as to call for "complete decriminalisation" of the drug in all its forms.
But the Royal College of Psychiatrists warned: "Cannabis carries significant mental health risks for some, including psychosis, depression and anxiety."
A Home Office spokeswoman said it recognised the suffering of those with chronic pain, but said medicines should be thoroughly tested so that doctors and patients can be assured of their safety.

VICTORIA— Another year, another missed opportunity to invest in post-secondary education and address growing problems with affordability. That's the message from the Federation of Post-Secondary Educators and Canadian Federation of Students-BC, as the 2016 BC Budget delivers another year of flat funding to BC's colleges and universities.
Interest of up to prime plus 5 percent is charged on BC government student loans. Over the repayment period, interest can total more than $10,000 on the average student loan.
After its province-wide consultation, the Select Standing Committee on Finance and Government Services made several recommendations to address funding shortfalls and the affordability crisis in post-secondary education. Yet the Budget doesn't lay out a plan to help students and their families afford the rising costs of attending college and university.
The Canadian Federation of Students-BC is composed of post-secondary students from 14 universities and colleges in every region in BC. The Federation of Post-Secondary Educators of BC is the provincial voice for 10,000 faculty and staff in universities, colleges and institutes across BC.

In a report, Human Rights Outlook 2018, it warns that low-skilled workers in emerging economy supply chains "will find themselves jobless and competing for a diminishing supply of decent work, unless their countries start now to reskill and prepare workers to adapt to their gradual replacement by more efficient machines.
Verisk Maplecroft highlights figures from the UN's International Labour Organisation estimating that over the next two decades 56 per cent of workers in the manufacturing hubs of Cambodia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam will lose their jobs due to automation. As a result, the risk of slavery and trafficking appearing in supply chains will spiral, says the report.

Prince Tributes and Preachin' Truth At the 2016 BET Awards!
Posted on June 27, 2016 by Nadiya
Man, oh man…a lot of stuff went down in the last 24 hrs., and I have to write my humble opinion about it all. Before I watched the epicness that was the season finale of "Game of Thrones," I made it my business to check out the 2016 BET Awards, considering the shade they threw towards Madonna's Prince tribute a month or so ago (see the above picture).
The majority of the show was entertaining. I loved Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross' version of Hamilton (I have to see this play). Beyoncé gave a stunning (and water filled) performance of "Freedom," then quickly bumped out, as my future father-in-law Ice Cube would say. I caught Maxwell givin' Taraji the side eye during her monologue:
I knew that look was gonna become an internet meme. My boo O'Shea Jackson, Jr. didn't win best actor (boo!), but Straight Outta Compton won best movie (yay!), and a bunch of musical artists that I never really heard of (other than Drake) won a bunch of awards. I got to see Fat Joe and Usher perform (separately, not together), which was sweet. Every few moments, the celebs would come out and remind us how important our vote is (which it really is), and even mentioned how Brexit basically proved that. Gabrielle Union's hair and all her outfits were fierce. Samuel L. Jackson won the much deserved Lifetime Achievement Award. Oh, and there's gonna be a New Edition movie coming out soon along with a new Morris Chestnut stalker film. Like I said, all that stuff was entertaining. But what really made my night were the Prince tributes (which was my main reason for watching the show), and Jesse Williams' acceptance speech.
Before I talk about the Prince tributes, I wanna touch on Jesse's speech. Prior to last night, I basically knew Jesse Williams as "the hot black guy from Cabin in the Woods." I stopped watching "Grey's Anatomy" after Izzie starting having sex with Denny's ghost and George got hit by a damn Greyhound bus, so I'm not familiar with Jesse's work on that show. However, his appearance at the BET Awards converted me into an instant fan. Last night, Jesse was presented with BET's 2016 Humanitarian Award for his work in the #BlackLivesMatter movement. His acceptance speech blew me away.
My blog isn't a political one, but as always, I have to keep it 100%. Jesse's speech was full of truth. He spoke on how black men should treat black women as the queens we are, how we as a people shouldn't waste so much of our money just to have a brand on our body (i.e. breakin' our necks just to have the new Jordans or the new Apple Bottoms…nothing against those designers, and yes, it's good to want nice things, but some of us focus a little too much on that). Then he spoke at length on how police officers have been known to refrain from using excessive force with Caucasian citizens, and should learn to do the same with African-American citizens. He also went on to say that folks that don't agree with the movement and don't care about black rights shouldn't criticize the ones that do. Man, I felt the spirit when I heard this guy speak! I love this man. I even took the time to post something about it on Facebook:
I noticed that Jesse was trending on Black Twitter earlier, until poor Justin Timberlake posted how he was inspired by the speech. Then the former *NSYNC front man was unnecessarily drug through the mud for cultural appropriation and for later responding that "we're all the same." Some of them even brought up old ass Nipplegate. Lord. If y'all want to watch Jesse's speech or read of transcript of it, go to this site.
Now onto the Prince tributes…they were slammin'! I saw Madonna and Stevie Wonder's tribute at the Billboard Awards, and it wasn't as horrible as most folks made it out to be, but at the same time, it didn't hold a candle to the tributes that aired last night. They weren't just the best Prince tributes this year…they were best tributes to one of this year's deceased musical artists, period.
First, Erykah Badu performed "The Ballad of Dorothy Parker." I'm not gonna lie, I never really listened to that song before (I vaguely remember hearing it briefly years ago, I think), and neither did my mom or my aunt, and my mother's been a fan of Prince since he began his professional career back in 1978. The performance was great however, and I was exposed to a new Prince song! But I have to address something…some smarty pants on Facebook (that's not a friend of mine, by the way) was talkin' out his neck about how some folks didn't know the song but claimed to be real Prince fans. Smart guy, there's thousands—and I do mean thousands—of Prince songs out there that I'm sure most folks haven't heard, including yourself. Even the biggest fans out there haven't heard every single song, due to the fact that Prince has a vault full of twenty to thirty years worth of unreleased tracks. Let's not forget, some folks simply may not have listened to every single album that Prince ever released (I think he has about twenty of them out there). So Daddy Cube, please tell that big mouth what he can do.
Anyway, after Erykah performed, newcomer (or at least he's a newcomer to me) Bilal immediately came out and performed "The Beautiful Ones." There's two things I really loved about all these tributes: one, they occurred throughout the show and featured more than one or two artists doing it all at once like other award ceremonies. Secondly, the songs that were picked weren't the most obvious choices for a Prince tribute. You automatically assume "Purple Rain," "Kiss," "Diamonds and Pearls" and "Let's Go Crazy" will be played for a Prince tribute, but it was nice to also hear some of the other songs that we love for a change. Steve Harvey took the same approach on his radio show the morning after Prince passed.
I don't know anything about Bilal, but he definitely seems like a talented brother. His performance was one of the best ones of the night, and he went all out. Not only did he write on the floor during the climax of the song ala The Kid in Purple Rain, but he even went so far as to wear boots with a heel (the heel wasn't quite as high as Prince's though). The entire time Erykah and Bilal were performing, The Roots were playing behind them as the backing band.
Next, Stevie Wonder and Tori Kelly (another newcomer for me) performed a sweet rendition of "Take Me With You," which I think may have surpassed the original. No disrespect to Apollonia, but she never really had much of a singing voice, in my opinion. I always liked "Sex Shooter," though (you still my girl, Apollonia!). Jennifer Hudson came out afterwards in a sleek, short, ivory white trenchcoat with a hoodie and sang the best outside version of "Purple Rain" I've heard yet (sorry, Adam Levine).
Later in the night, Maxwell, the King of the Side Eye himself, performed "Nothing Compares 2 U" after singing "Lake By the Ocean" (which for some reason reminds me of "Bad Habits"). I noticed that Maxwell changed the first line of the song to "It's been seven hours and 66 days since you took your music away" (it's been over two months since Prince passed), and retrofitted most of the song to convey how much the world missed Prince. It was a butt kickin' performance, and no disrespect to Madonna, but I enjoyed Maxwell's version a bit more. However, BET just couldn't resist throwin' a bit more shade…
Janelle Monae appeared next and performed a medley of "Delirious," "Kiss," "Pop Life" and "I Would Die 4 U." Of course, she shut the place down as she recreated Prince's dance moves, and even paid homage by wearing Prince's signature stacked heels and buttless pants. Anthony Anderson made sure he wasn't outdone, though.
Last, but definitely not least, was Shelia E.'s tribute. My girl started her show with the classic song "Housequake" and segued into "Erotic City," her and Prince's legendary duet (one of my favorites! As dirty as that song is, I'm surprised they allowed it!). Mayte joined the dancers onstage, and I couldn't help but notice that they were all barefoot. Part of me wonders if there was a reason behind that. Shelia publicly came out and said that dancing in four inch heels for so many years is what ruined Prince's knees and hip, and caused him to be in intense pain as he became older.
After playing a few bars of "Let's Work" the medley went into "U Got the Look," a song Prince and Shelia used to perform together all the time (that's my jam!). Then Shelia performed two songs that kind of had me scratching my head…"Love Bizarre" and "The Glamorous Life." Don't get me wrong, I love those songs, but they're technically Shelia's songs, not Prince's. He wrote them and performed them with her from time to time…well, then again, I guess that's reason enough. She loved this man with all her heart and probably cherished every moment they spent together writing and performing songs.
Shelia then broke out her guitar (I didn't even know she played the guitar!) and played "America" (another song I'm not 100% familiar with because I never listened to Around the World in a Day in its entirety…once again, I think I heard it once or twice back in junior high), which led to "Baby, I'm a Star" and who came out? Jerome! Man, if Morris showed up, it'd be on and poppin'! The tribute ended with Shelia carrying one of Prince's guitar's lifted to the sky, as all the dancers and musicians pointed upward at the heavenly angel they were commemorating. Mayte had her other arm wrapped around Shelia. It was two of the women he loved most standing center stage. A fitting send off if ever there was one.
Ms. Escovedo proved last night that she's anything but irrelevant. I loved all the performances, but Shelia silenced all haters, just like I knew she would. D'Angelo was also supposed to come and do a tribute performance, but after seeing all these folks do their thing, I can't say I missed him. Besides, his rendition of "Sometimes It Snows In April" on "The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon" a few months ago was a fitting memorial to The Purple One. I give props to everyone that contributed to the tribute performances last night, and I give major props to Jesse Williams' speech. They all made for a very memorable awards show. I loved it.
So what did you think about all of Prince's tributes? Were they history in the making or all just overhyped? Did you like them more or less than Madonna's tribute? What about Jesse Williams' speech? Was he giving you life with that speech or just getting on your nerves? Did you miss D'Angelo? Did you wish some other artists contributed to the Prince tribute? Also, what did you think about the song choices? Would you rather hear more of Prince's bigger hits, or did you like that they went with the more semi-popular songs? Lastly, what do you think about BET's constant shade?
Damn, that was a read. Your thoughts, please!

After the polar vortex visit, it left many of us thinking about life in the tropics or, at the bare minimum, longing for summer, gardening and splashing in the pool. In reality, it will not be long until the backyard becomes our corner of paradise — our secret garden — if we make the addition of a few tropical plants.
The tropical-style garden is about attitude as much as it is style. So many of us have made those treks across the seas to far-off islands where the crystal-clear water, fragrant blossoms and lush surroundings made us forget the stresses of life. Though we might have been there for days, maybe even making more than one trip a year, time seemed fleeting.
This past summer, my son took a couple of photos for the "old man" while at the Atlanta Zoo. My hat is off to the zoo staff that created so picturesque of settings serving as an inspiration, or example, of what can be done using everyday plants from the local garden center.
In another garden, they used more bananas, a couple of tree ferns, coleus, philodendrons and elephant ears for a rain forest-like look. I promise you, when visitors walked by talking about not only the animals, but also how beautiful the Atlanta Zoo is, they surely felt as though they were on an exotic vacation to the tropics. Plants will do that; they will create the mood.
Many tropical plants at today's garden center are more cold hardy than you ever imagined. They may freeze to the ground and return in the spring, but that's the nature of many of our regular perennials, too.
There are bananas for sale like the Japanese fiber banana that has been known to return from minus 20 degrees. But then there are plants like hostas and ferns that simply look tropical.
Another consideration for going tropical is our long growing season. Take for, example, a city like Baltimore that has about 238 days of frost-free weather or Louisville, Ky., with 220 days. This means for over seven months, those cities can look like the Balata Gardens in Martinique.
Another factor is summer heat. When the stifling temperatures have sent you indoors where it is much cooler, guess what plants are looking good out in the garden? More than likely they are tropical plants like lantanas, mandevilla, ixora, crossandra, princess flower and hibiscus.
The banana will be growing at a pace that tempts you to invite the neighbors over to watch. Last year a Red Abyssinian banana in Columbus froze to ground level in my son's landscape. In May, it put up a shoot a couple of inches tall; by the middle of August, it was taller than the roof of the house.
Don't be afraid to create your corner of paradise this summer using a healthy addition of tropical plants. Put on your Hawaiian shirt, fire up the grill and you will imagine you are hearing the sounds of steel drums in the distance.

Coronary artery thrombosis in patients with unstable angina
D. R. Holmes, G. O. Hartzler, H. C. Smith, V. Fuster
This report describes the clinical course, coronary artery anatomy, and ventricular function of 16 patients in whom coronary artery thrombosis was detected at the time of cardiac catheterisation. All patients had an unstable clinical course in which accelerated angina occurred a mean of four weeks (range four days to 12 weeks) before catheterisation, and four patients had recent subendocardial myocardial infarction. In all patients severe coronary artery disease was documented at catheterisation. Fifteen patients had segmental wall motion abnormalities involving the left ventricular wall that was supplied by the coronary artery in which there was thrombus. Three patterns of coronary artery thrombus were noted: (1) thrombus proximal to high-grade coronary artery stenosis; (2) thrombus distal to high-grade coronary artery stenosis; and (3) thrombus in segments of the arterial tree in which there was no high-grade coronary artery stenosis. Though the precise cause of the coronary artery thrombosis in our patients is unknown, it may have been a result of stasis, a ruptured atherosclerotic plaque, or coronary spasm. The common clinical course with unstable angina of acute onset suggests the possibility that the thrombus may have been responsible for the abrupt change in clinical condition or may have been a contributing factor in the patient's course.

It didn't take long for the United States women's national team to get on the scoreboard as they defeated the Republic of Ireland 2-0 on Saturday night. 11,570 fans watched as the U.S. scored 44 seconds into the match at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale.
The kickoff gave Lauren Cheney the ball, which she slipped to Alex Morgan who shot past the surprised Irish goal keeper, Emma Byrne. The first goal of the match took less than a minute to appear on the scoreboard.
The U.S. dominated in all aspects of the game in the first half. The few times an Irish player would get the ball, they would be quickly dispossessed before being able to pass.
Ireland registered no shots on goal, or even a threatening possession, for the first 20 minutes of the game. It was time for someone else to get some time on the field, and the popular starting keeper Hope Solo exited the game to great applause from the crowd. Substitute keeper Jill Loyden, who served as Hope Solo's back up with St. Louis Athletica in 2009, made her fourth appearance for the national team.
Ireland managed a free kick a few yards outside the penalty area in the 25th minute for their first real threat on goal. Megan Campbell's shot went wide.
Although Byrne did a better job keeping the U.S. out of the goal than she did on Wednesday, she was unable to stop an attempt that started with former Arizona State player Amy LePeilbet making a long pass to Alex Morgan. Morgan took the ball nearly to the end line before passing it into the box. Megan Rapinoe didn't look quite ready for it, but took a shot that fooled Byrne to widen the U.S. lead.
The second half started with Nicole Barnhart subbing in for Loyden, marking the third U.S. keeper of the match. Neither Solo nor Loyden were tested: Ireland recorded no shots on goal in the first half.
Although the U.S. didn't manage to match the goal scoring match against Ireland on Wednesday, they weren't lacking for offense. Midfielder Carli Lloyd managed three shots on goal, including one in the 67th minute that required a stretching Byrne to tip the ball over the crossbar.
Arizona raised Sydney Leroux, who scored two earlier this week, had her best chance in minute 75. Byrne saved the ball in what turned out to be a remarkable half for the Arsenal LFC keeper.
The game ended with the fifth win for the U.S. on their Fan Tribute Tour. The next stops on the tour all involve a much tougher opponent: China. The US will travel to Detroit on Dec. 8, Houston on Dec. 12 and Boca Raton on Dec. 15 to take on the Forceful Roses, currently ranked 18th in the world.
The new coach is coming; look busy
The team is currently tutored by interim coach Jill Ellis, with Australian national team coach Tom Sermanni set to take over in January. He wasn't at this game, but he plans to attend the matches against China.
"It's a fresh start for everybody. He's watching films and taking notes on things he wants to tweak and things he likes," said Carli Lloyd after the match. "I'm looking forward to these three games and getting on the pitch with Tom."
"I've heard great things about him," said Lloyd. "I think he's going to come in and do a great job and we'll keep having fun on the field."
Defender Amy LePeilbet welcomes the change.
"I'm a person that rolls with things. I don't stress too much," she said. "I'm excited to meet Tom. I've never met him before and I've never played for him...I'm sure he'll bring some new and exciting things to our team."
Back to Arizona
Two players with Arizona connections saw time on the field.
Amy LePeilbet earned First-Team All-PAC-10 honors three times during her time at Arizona State University.
"It's exciting to be back, I love playing here," she said as young fans were still screaming for their favorite players after the game. "It's like my home turf."
"I think the level lifting everywhere is a good thing," she said about the growth of the sport in Arizona. "Everyone jumping to the next level is pushing the sport, more athletes are developing, working at a higher rate, playing against better players and having better competition. I think it's going to help our sport grow in America."
Former Sereno Soccer Club standout Sydney Leroux is Canadian-born, but went to high school in Phoenix. She feels a special connection to the soccer scene in Arizona.
"It's coming home," said LeRoux of the crowd that included players and friends that she knew in high school. "It's where soccer started for me for with the U.S. National Team so it just feels really good to come back."
For stat geeks
Center back Christie Rampone earned her 273rd cap, putting her in third place for all time appearances for the national team. She is only surpassed by Mia Hamm (275) and Kristine Lilly (352).
Alex Morgan's goal marks 27 for the year. The only two U.S. players exceeding that mark are Abby Wambach (31 in 2004) and Michelle Akers (39 in 1991). Her assist was her 19th of the year. For single year totals, that's only exceeded by Carin Gabarra (21 in 1991) and Mia Hamm (20 in 1998 and 22 in 2004).

In Spain, Solar Lobby and 3 Big Utilities Battle Over PV Subsidy Cuts
Spain's solar trade industry argues that PV projects have been sacrificed to keep profits from coal and gas plants high
Tim Webb,
Spain had one of the world's most ambitious — and generous — plans to boost the amount of electricity it generates from the sun. That dream, for the solar industry at least, has turned sour.
Just days before Christmas, the government slashed the level of subsidies that all new and existing photovoltaic (PV) solar projects will receive. But even the powerful utility companies, who opposed the solar industry, are now warning that the fallout could be long-lasting and reach far beyond the energy sector.
The row has pitted the renewable lobby against Spain's three biggest utilities — , and — which have been urging the government to take action to stem the wave of subsidised renewable projects being built, particularly solar ones.
Carlos Salle, Iberdrola's director for regulation, told the Guardian that divisions between the renewable lobby and the rest of the energy industry are even deeper in Spain than elsewhere as a result. "We have more controversy here in Spain with renewables against non-renewables ... this is an aspect of our system — it provokes problems."
Another Madrid-based businessman, from one of Spain's leading companies, was franker, likening relations, only half-jokingly, as a "war." The (Asif), Spain's solar industry body, accuses politicians of telling lies, exaggerating the costs of generating electricity using solar PV to justify the cut in subsidies.
It is more than just bragging rights between rival generators at stake.
The solar PV industry alone received subsidies last year of €2.6bn (£2.28bn), a sum neither the country — nor the utilities — can afford. The utilities have paid out €20bn to subsidize solar and wind projects, and are still waiting for the government to pay them back.
Credit rating agencies threatened to downgrade the companies if something was not done to address the "tariff deficit." Salle recalled: "The situation was horrible a year ago — €20bn for three companies was an amount comparable to an entire budget for some countries."
The utilities also complain that their coal and gas plants, which the government wanted them to build a decade ago after several blackouts, are losing money because they are now only needed for half the time. But the Spanish regulator forces the firms to keep them on standby for times when the wind stops blowing or at night when solar does not generate.
Asif argues that solar projects, which last summer provided a maximum of 4 percent of the country's electricity, have been sacrificed to keep profits from dirty coal and gas plants high. The solar industry had enjoyed phenomenal growth due to a subsidy regime which, even Asif admits, was too generous. Companies were able to cut costs too quickly — 70 percent since the original subsidies were introduced in 2004. Investors poured in and about two-thirds of the current capacity was installed in 2008 alone, before a planned tariff cut came into force the following year.
This has left Spain with 10 times the amount of solar PV capacity the government had planned for by 2010 — and a much bigger bill than it had envisioned.
Javier Anta, Asif's president, said that the industry will challenge the cut in the courts, but admitted that this would take years, by which time many solar project owners could have gone to the wall. He added that some investors will not back new projects because they fear the tariff could be cut again retrospectively.
"There are some people who say this is not a one-off. They do not trust the government," he said.
This is one point on which both the renewable lobby and the power industry agree: By taking the unprecedented step of retrospectively cutting subsidies promised to projects which have already been built, the government risks scaring off investors of all kinds.
Salle says that "even if we recognise that the situation is better than a month or a year ago, the problem is [a lack of] confidence. The uncertainty and [risk] premium does not apply only to that sector [solar PV] but to the whole industry and the rest of the country in some cases.
"Everyone appreciates the relevance of having regulation which does not make any retroactive decisions because you will have to attract new people [to invest]. The new people will say, 'Hey, in the history of this country and this sector these people who have been new in the past and have invested, the government has changed the rules.'"
Reflecting Change
Abengoa, a Spanish engineering firm celebrating its 70th year, is pushing ahead with solar-thermal projects. Unlike the schemes involving reflectors heating a salt water mixture running through pipes, Abengoa has developed towers of pipes that look like mini skyscrapers. It employs 23,000 workers in its solar unit, which had a turnover of more than €3bn (£2.6bn).
The firm has conducted sustainability audits of its business for several years and says projects that can't meet sustainability criteria are modified or abandoned. Controversially, it has championed the refining of biofuels, something anti-poverty campaigners have cited as denying food sources to poor people in the developing world.
Carlos Bousoño, director of corporate social responsibility, said the debate had moved on after technology allowed for seeds and fruit to be separated from plants before processing. He said only the stalk and waste material was used in second generation biofuels fermentation, allowing corn, soya or other foodstuff to be saved for making food.

Alicia Welcomes Us To The 'KEYS' Experience
Alicia Keys is one of the greatest songwriters of our time, with 15 GRAMMY® Awards to her name and over 65 million records sold worldwide. Today, Alicia has invited us into her world through her inventive double album 'KEYS'.
A post shared by Alicia Keys (@aliciakeys)
The album offers a dual, one-of-a-kind sonic experience. 'The Originals' version consists of thirteen brand new tracks that are quintessentially Alicia, representing her ingenious songwriting and sound which she is well known and loved for. 'The Unlocked' version offers a new side of Alicia, as she samples songs from 'The Originals' with the help of GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Mike WiLL Made-It for a fresh intriguing vibe, further exploring Alicia's virtuosic musical abilities.
Throughout both versions of the album, Alicia explores collaborations with a multitude of world-class talents. This includes; Khalid & Lucky Daye on "Come For Me" (Unlocked), Lil Wayne on "Nat King Cole" (Unlocked), Brandi Carlile on "Paper Flowers" (Originals), Pusha T on "Plentiful" (Originals) and Swae Lee on "LALA" (Unlocked).
A post shared by Swae Lee, Lee Swae? (@swaelee)
Speaking on the 'KEYS' Alicia said;
"This is my favourite project yet! It's my lane and I'm driving in it. I love both sides – it's like a Saturday and Sunday. You're going to love this music!"
Alicia has released visualisers on Youtube for every album's track, with the tracks 'Best Of Me' and 'LALA' coming with official music videos. Both songs are rich and irresistible, yet offer unique video concepts and sounds.
Further allowing us to see her artistic vision, Alicia will take centre stage at the Expo 2020 Dubai UAE to perform in their Infinite Nights series, whilst appearing under the world's largest 360-degree projection surface, the Al Wasl dome. This performance will see Alicia execute a medley of her biggest hits, celebrating 20 years of success, whilst also adding in some of her new material from 'KEYS'. The performance will be available to livestream.
Prior to today's release of 'KEYS', Alicia welcomed fans inside her world via the YouTube Originals four-part documentary series, "Noted: Alicia Keys The Untold Stories," where she shared her journey from a vulnerable young star, to self-empowered woman, musician and mother. The series is available to watch exclusively on YouTube.
As if she hadn't already spoilt fans enough, Alicia has also announced that she will be embarking on a world tour in 2022, commencing in June in the UK. Tickets are available now!

SOLD! The 1903 Maxfield Parrish Commanded… (Scroll Down to See)
Illustrations November 21, 2018 May 2, 2021
Update: The Maxfield Parrish painting sold for just over $2 million.
What you see: Maxfield Parrish's A Venetian Night's Entertainment, a 1903 oil on paper laid down on panel. Christie's estimates it at $1 million to $1.5 million.
The expert: Tylee Abbott, Vice President and specialist in American art at Christie's.
What characteristics mark A Venetian Night's Entertainment as a Maxfield Parrish painting? What details tell you that only he could have painted it? Certainly one of the things that defines a Maxfield Parrish is luminosity. It tends to glow, regardless of subject matter. It has to do with his technique. He applied an Old Master technique where he built a white ground and added layers and layers of washes and colors, and he used intricate varnishes to achieve the luminous surface. And he's very well-known for doing fantastical, wonderful scenes. It's as much his subject matter as his technique.
How does his use of lanterns mark A Venetian Night's Entertainment as distinctly his? Did he depict them often? They actually occur in a couple of different paintings. An interest of his was in luminous paintings that glowed. Obviously, lanterns lend themselves to achieving that aesthetic. Lanterns also allow for really soft points of light.
A Venetian Night's Entertainment is what I describe as a "Jenga painting": the composition is loaded with so many elements that it should fall apart, but because it's put together well, it holds together well. How does Parrish's deftness with a crowded composition speak to his mastery? It is chaos, but it's ordered chaos. It's overflowing with figures and elements, and it was carefully designed by Maxfield Parrish. It conveys the revelry of Venice, and the party. All the figures in there are complementing each other. The gestures of their hands are expressive, and they're all looking in different directions–across each other, at each other. It's a bit overwhelming, but it is balanced. It starts with the architectural space at the top, and it's balanced by the figures at the bottom. The center is illuminated by lanterns. The dark [areas] on the top and the bottom allow a more cohesive balance in the composition.
Might Maxfield Parrish have done anything differently than he normally would to work out the unusually complex composition we see in A Venetian Night's Entertainment? His technique could be very labor-intensive. He relied heavily on models for his paintings. Oftentimes, he would choose friends. He would not have had twelve people sitting in his studio. He would explore them and simulate positions.
Maxfield Parrish made this work after joining the Cornish community in Cornish, New Hampshire, which orbited around Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Is there any chance that Parrish recruited his neighbors to pose for this? And do we know who might have modeled for him for this piece? He may well have had folks prominent in the community sit for him. The communal nature of the Cornish community lends itself to painting a theatrical party scene. But we haven't identified any of the models, unfortunately.
Parrish was commissioned to paint this to illustrate an Edith Wharton story. Could we talk about what scene he's showing here? I take it the main character is the man in profile in Colonial-looking clothes at the left? In the story, a young man wanders the streets of Venice as a tourist, out of place. Count Rialto [at right] befriends him–'Have a drink, I'll show you what Venice nightlife is all about.' Parrish has taken an austere young Massachusetts gentleman with a tricorn hat and upright posture and thrown him into a very Italian, expressive scene of frivolity.
To use a slightly dismissive phrase that Parrish coined, his most famous works feature a "girl on a rock." A Venetian Night's Entertainment is not a girl on a rock. Does that matter? The top auction price for his most famous painting, and one of the most famous paintings in art history, is Daybreak, which shows two Neoclassical figures in a fantastical landscape. That was made in the 1920s. This was made in 1903, and this is a purposeful illustration, executing a narrative. These painted illustrations, in today's market for American illustration, which is very strong, can be every bit as popular as the girl-on-the-rock subject matter.
What is the auction record for a Maxfield Parrish painting? $7.6 million, for Daybreak, sold at Christie's in May 2006. The next-highest result is for The Lantern Bearers, sold at Christie's in the same auction for $4.2 million.
How often does an original Maxfield Parrish painting come to auction? Almost every season there's a Parrish or a couple of Parrishes on the market. What type of Parrish varies widely. How often is something as significant as this available? Once a year, or every other year.
*Architect Stanford White designed the frame. How does it enhance the painting? The frame is something that sets this painting apart from all other Parrishes. It's a very special thing. There's one other Parrish in a Stanford White frame known, and it's in a private collection.
*So this is the first time one of the two has come to auction? I believe so. I think the prominence of Stanford White as a secondary artist contributes to its value. The frame furthers the architectural design where the scene takes place. The vegetative scrolls on the frame add to the fluidity of the gestures and compliments the overall motion of the painting.
What is the work like in person? The photo is fairly good in terms of a likeness, but with Maxfield Parrish, the luminous nature of the painting is important. It glows a lot more in person than in reproduction.
Why will this Maxfield Parrish painting stick in your memory? The frame is really unique. Rarely are frames made by Stanford White, and rarely are frames so complementary to the work. The amount of people in the painting and the lanterns are definitely memorable. They lend a lot to the glowing nature of the composition.
How to bid: A Venetian Night's Entertainment is lot 40 in the American Art sale at Christie's, scheduled for November 20, 2018.
*Since taking the interview and posting the piece, Christie's learned that the frame is not original, and thus not by Stanford White.

Judy gets a taste of her own medicine in a hilarious new episode sure to tickle your humerus (aka funny bone) and put you in a very Judy Moody mood!
She took her own temperature. With the fancy thermometer that beeped. It was not normal. It was not 98.6. Judy's temperature was 188.8! Judy's temperature was 00.0! Judy's temperature was beep-beep-beep-beep-beep. She, Judy Moody, had the temperature of an outer-space alien!
Judy Moody has a mood for every occasion, and now, she, Judy Moody, is in a medical mood! It's no secret that Judy wants to be like Elizabeth Blackwell, first woman doctor, when she grows up. So when Class 3T starts to study the Amazing Human Body, Judy can hardly wait to begin her better-than-best-ever third-grade projects: show-and-tell with something way rarer than a scab, a real-live ooey-gooey operation, and a cloning experiment that may create double trouble for Judy and her friends. RARE!
Megan McDonald is the creator of the popular and award-winning Judy Moody and Stink series. She is also the author of two Sisters Club stories and many other books for children. She lives in Sebastopol, California.

[McDonald] finds ample comedy in the way children mishear words and mangle information [and] Reynolds' buoyant sketches depict Judy's ups and downs in this fifth book of a series that proves laughter can be contagious.
Brings back the irrepressible heroine as her class studies the human body.
The author's humor and language are right on target. . . . As always, there are facts to be learned and loads of puns and playful language to entertain readers. This is another winner.

Still don't know Mequinenza?
Here we leave you some proposals so that you can get to know our territory and discover why Mequinenza is so special.
Mequinenza is a small town located in Zaragoza, at the confluence of the Ebro, Segre and Cinca rivers. Perfect alternative for vacations and weekends, for family and adventure tourism.
Zaragoza is a monumental city that reflects in its streets the passage of four civilizations: the Roman, the Muslim, the Jewish and the Christian. It has a historic center that highlights the Basilica del Pilar, the Lonja and the Town Hall.
The Ebro river, as it passes through the city, is channeled dividing it in two, being communicated by a total of 15 bridges. Of which the Stone Bridge stands out, the oldest in the city, and from which we can see the illuminated Basilica del Pilar.
For lovers of gastronomy, it will be a perfect time to eat in the historic center, where there are multiple restaurants to choose from. The most outstanding areas would be around the Plaza, Calle Mayor, Calle del Coso or the Tubo area.
The Aljafería Palace also stands out. A fortified palace built in the second half of the 11th century. Inside, we will find a mosque, a patio of orange trees and an architecture determined by its Muslim origin.
The Museo Goya opened its doors in 2015, although its origins go back to 1979. It is the only museum in the world that has all the complete series of Francisco de Goya in its permanent collection.
Goya has a strong connection to Zaragoza. Born in Fuendetodos, when he was still very young he em> moved with his family to Zaragoza em>, where he spent his childhood and received artistic training from him.
The collection exhibited in the museum allows you to observe and enjoy the work of the genius and take a tour of his entire career.
In it you can enjoy 1 drawing, 14 paintings and 5 series of engravings, made up of almost 250 lithographs, that Goya made throughout his life.
Under the name of the Goya Museum, three different museum spaces are grouped:
· 1st floor: Goya's Background. In this area you can see baroque works by Aragonese painters, and others that Goya nurtured in his youth.
· 2nd floor: Goya Room. An area where you can see a wide catalog of his works. Among them, the Self-portrait of him, the sketch of Dos de Mayo and the Masquerade ball under an arch. In it, you can also enjoy strong> his prints of him.
3rd floor: The Legacy of Goya. Works by other 19th-century Aragonese painters who were influenced by the work of Goya, and a selection of 19th-century Spanish landscaping are contemplated.
Lleida is a city that has a valuable architectural and cultural heritage, as well as a historic center to visit, where Romanesque and Gothic styles are combined in harmony. Two styles that we can see reflected in La Seu Vella, an old cathedral and the most emblematic monument in the city.
The ideal destination to get lost in its alleys and contemplate its Catalan culture.
Old town bathed by the Guadalope river, capital of Bajo Aragón and the second most populous city in Teruel.
In this charming little town, its imposing castle, the town hall and the fish market stand out, which was the public market in the Middle Ages.
You cannot miss a route through its streets, its subsoil of passageways and its medieval vestiges.
