The Holland Community Opera Fellowship is the centerpiece of Opera Omaha's strategic vision for the future.
In today's world, the arts play a pivotal role in shaping our communities and the quality of life of our citizens. In service to the community, we are bringing opera into new environments illustrating and promoting the value of creativity in both the arts and non-arts sectors.
ENGAGES in meaningful dialogue with the community on issues and ideas of social relevance.
FULFILLS unmet needs in the community for arts experiences, education, and appreciation.
EMPOWERS communities through music and culture.
CREATES reciprocal relationships between Opera Omaha and different sectors and neighborhoods benefitting residents and communities.
EXPANDS Opera Omaha's civic impact and relevancy to the community.
DIVERSIFIES and grows Opera Omaha's impact through performance and social interactions.
Community Partners & Programming
We work collaboratively with community partners to co-create programming that helps individuals, organizations, and communities reach their goals. We know we can't solve the most pressing issues in our community, like homelessness, income disparity, immigration, or segregation, but by working with partners who are the experts working on those issue areas we can bring our unique artistic resources to the table to help meet their goals together.
Some of these projects include Masterclasses with individuals from the Ollie Webb Center, supporting the Meerkat Melodies Choir at Nelson Mandela Elementary, Creativity Workshops at the Siena/Francis House and MICAH House, Healing Arts Concerts at the Buffet Cancer Center, supporting Gotta Be Me Heartlight Choir's Original Rock Opera, just to name a few.
All our community partners are listed on our Community Partnership Page
The Holland Community Opera Fellowship brings community-minded, entrepreneurial artists to live and work in Omaha. Fellows serve as ambassadors of the company by developing relationships with community leaders and to design and implement unique projects combining artistry and musicianship, leadership, advocacy, and citizenship. As a two-year commitment with a staggered start, each year there are two new artists and two in their second year.

Community Artist Panel
The panel represents a cross-section of the community including organizations, businesses, neighborhoods, and community groups. Those serving on the Community Artist Panel develop a partnership with Opera Omaha to engage in meaningful conversations to identify community issues and program development and potential partners and opportunities across different neighborhoods and sectors. The panel considers high level strategic decisions and priorities, helping set the direction of the Fellowship and is a critical part of the Fellow selection process, With the panel, residents from neighborhoods across the greater Omaha metro area have a voice in choosing who and how artists interact with their diverse districts and constituent groups.

The lecture is a commonplace in many academic disciplines; also commonplace, however, are concerns that lectures can be unengaging, unproductive, a haven for uncreative teaching, even unfair (e.g., to women, students of color, first-generation students, etc. ) or unethical. (See Are College Lectures Unfair - The New York Times and Lectures Aren't Just Boring, They're Ineffective, Too, Study Finds - Science). Proponents, on the other hand, note that the lecture is simply a tool—a tool that, like most others, can be used poorly or, with some knowledge and forethought, effectively.
There are many ways. Pauses in the midst of a lecture can refresh attention spans, break up material before it becomes overwhelming, and offer opportunities to get students involved. You can solicit participation from students in a variety of ways—asking for a show of hands supporting one conclusion or another, collecting opinions and responses from students via electronic clickers (clickers - CNDLS technology page) or Poll Everywhere (Poll Everywhere - CNDLS technology page), inviting questions when you see confusion on several faces—and allowing plenty of silent time, as necessary, for people to figure out how to articulate their questions. You can also use pauses to ask students to actively process the material, whether via small group (or pair) discussion; a quick jotting down of ideas/questions; a brief, ungraded quiz; a quiet moment to think things through; or any of a variety of other possibilities. See our page on Active Learning for ideas, or see below for additional resources.
These techniques break down the wall between professor and students, which shifts the dynamic from a performance that students passively attend to a learning experience in which students participate. This new dynamic makes it more likely that students will see you as an approachable resource, and it helps to build classroom community. You can support this shift by learning student names when possible, by paying close attention to student reactions as you lecture, by soliciting student feedback—by recognizing, as Georgetown Professor Heidi Elmendorf advises, that a professor's job is to teach not material but *students*.
What are my goals for this session?
What do I want students to know or to be able to do by the end of the session?
What will I have to do in class in order to help students meet the learning goals I've set for them?
How will I know that they've met these goals? Will there be an opportunity to assess their learning within this session, or will the assessment happen later? If later, when and in what form?
Once you've answered these questions, design your lecture not to simply cover material but so that it will take the class where you want it to go. We explore this further on our Planning and Leading Class page. And consider sharing your goals explicitly with students—it'll help focus their attention on what matters.
When we start thinking of the lecture as more than a one-way dissemination of information, we necessarily have to start thinking of the role of the student in making the experiences effective. There are skills involved in identifying, noting, and assimilating the crucial points in a lecture—not to mention demonstrating one's understanding on a test, or in a paper or other assessment—and we aren't born with these skills; we have to learn them. Unfortunately, many students arrive in our classrooms with insufficient training in these skills. (See this article by Annie Murphy Paul for the ways that this disparity breaks down along demographic lines.) One solution is active learning, which, as discussed above, brings benefits to all students, and particularly those who tend to be underserved by lectures. But we can also help our students develop the ability to engage and learn when teaching is less interactive.
A good first step is to explicitly acknowledge the fact that learning skills and study skills are themselves the result of learning and practice, so that students don't attribute their sometimes-painful growth curve to inborn (and unchangeable) limitations. Discussing this in class can be enormously helpful, and you can go over things like note-taking, highlighting, identifying key points, and more, with the full group in front of you. Beyond class, encourage students to meet with you in office hours to discuss class lectures, so that they can learn to see—and shrink—the gap between what they think you were teaching and what you actually intended to teach. (Of course, sometimes the gap is the result of your own not-fully-successful methods, which means that these office hours meetings can help you, too.) These meetings are also a great place to look at the student's note-taking and to discuss study habits when papers and tests are coming up. Meetings between students and teaching assistants can be similarly helpful.
Technology can support clarity. Slides can, if used properly, help students identify the main points of a lecture, and you can be explicit in identifying those as you go. Lecture capture allows students to access lectures outside of class as many times as they need, at whatever pace and with however many pauses the students need.
Presenting material in multiple modalities (e.g., orally, on slides during class, in notes available outside of class, live, lecture capture, via handouts), ensures that the material will be accessible to a wide range of students with differing learning styles and abilities. This is one element in an accessibility-focused approach called Universal Design for Learning (UDL).
If you're using slides, make sure they'll be legible (in terms of font size, contrast, etc.) to students (even in the back of the room), and that the slides are informative while still leaving you room to flesh the concepts out aloud; if your lecture is a simple reading of the content of the slides, students will soon tune you out and focus only on copying down the text on those slides.
Plan to repeat important points. One truism about teaching is that you need to tell students what you're going to say, and then you need to say it, and then you need to say what you've said.
Check in regularly with students—by asking them informally in the midst of a lecture or by asking them to summarize the day's points in an ungraded quiz or one-minute paper—to make sure you're communicating clearly.

The Sherwood Forest interviews are a series of clips with leading experts in the field of energy research from the University of Nottingham.
We decided to film in the famous forest because it is an icon of Nottingham and a fine example of the natural environment scientists want to preserve.
It's also a nice break from the office and laboratory!

There's nothing quite like a Pacific island for its total daydreamy perfection. The sense of relaxation is beyond compare, as is the quality of the beaches, reefs and surf, and the friendliness of the islanders. And this is not just a courtesy shown to tourists either, but a deeply ingrained way of life that's guaranteed to buoy your spirits.
The Pacific is a gigantic ocean, however, arrived at only after a long and expensive flight — and, beyond the South Seas stereotype, the individual island nations are very different. It's a big investment in time and money to get there, so before you go its vital that you choose the right island for you.
Here is a run through the best of them...
What's it like? Hawaii's most famous strip of sand is Waikiki beach, in Honolulu. As a city beach resort, it's a hoot, with a real holiday vibe, good restaurants and cracking nightlife. The gargantuan surfing waves at North Shore, snorkelling at Hanauma Bay and the evocative Pearl Harbor memorial are all a short drive away (on very good roads).
Honolulu is very American it's true, a world away from the more traditional islands of the Pacific. And it's a world away from Hawaii's seven other main islands, too. Leave it and you leave behind three-quarters of the 1.4m population, and are set to stumble on experiences as wonderful as any in the Pacific.
Great for black sand beaches and scrabble, the Waiʻanapanapa State Park on the island of Maui
On the Big Island, you can watch fresh lava fizzing into the sea and visit upland cowboy ranches. On Maui, you can ride across the moonscapes of Haleakala Crater and drive the Hana Highway, over single-lane bridges and around heart-stopping hairpins. On Lanai, a ghostly tanker lies fast on the reef at Shipwreck Beach, and there's a weird rock-strewn desert called the Garden of the Gods. On Molokai, take a mule ride along a narrow cliff ledge, 1,650ft above the waves, and trek the Halawa Valley for top-flight rainforest birding. And on Kauai, stroll boardwalks above the misty Alakai swamp and lie on Lumahai beach, where Mitzi Gaynor vowed "I'm gonna wash that man right outta my hair" in South Pacific.

One more thing...the Union Jack is on the flag of Hawaii, reputedly because King Kamehameha flew the Royal Navy's red ensign from his palace after it was given to him as a present.

Getting there: the main gateway to the Hawaiian Islands is Honolulu International Airport, which handles over 20 million passengers a year. There are flights from 20 mainland US cities, and other regional destinations including Auckland with Air New Zealand, Beijing with Air China, Nagoya, Osaka and Tokyo with Japan Airlines, Seoul with Korean Air and Asiana, Sydney with Qantas , and Vancouver with Air Canada.
If you are planning a round the world trip, or want to take in other Pacific Islands, then there are connections to Apia, Kiritimati and Nadi with Fiji Airways, Pago Pago and Papeete with Hawaiian Airlines, and Chuuk, Guam, Kosrea, Kwajalein, Majuro, and Pohnpei with United Airlines.
Getting around: the high standard of living in the islands ensures regular and affordable inter-island flights, with Hawaiian Airlines, Island Air , and Mokulele Airlines.

What's it like? Fiji is the South Pacific at its best — with 333 islands and a population nudging a million, there are diversions aplenty. It has fabulous beaches, of course, as well as timeless traditions and decades of experience of welcoming tourists. It's one of the easiest island groups to get around, too, and every budget, from top-end to backpacker, will find a beach to call home.
If you're just stopping over, it's best to head for the 20 Mamanuca islands, off the coast from the main airport. Protected by a reef, they can be as beach party or secluded luxury as you like. On a longer trip, explore the main island, Viti Levu. It's a fabulous four-hour drive along the Coral Coast highway from the airport to Suva, the Fijian capital. Along the way, you'll find great family-friendly resorts, hiking in the central mountains and the pretty thatched village of Navala.

From Suva, you can hop on a ferry to many of the other islands, including Ovalau, home to the ramshackle town of Levuka: a former whaling station, it has a cutesy collection of clapboard colonial buildings. Stay at the faded but fabulous Royal Hotel, one of the oldest in the Pacific.
In this part of the world, kava is a semi-ceremonial drink made from the root of a pepper-related plant. You'll find it across the Pacific, but Fijians drink lots of it. Slurp down the cloudy liquid, pass the bowl to your right, then feel your lips numb and your outlook mellow. It tastes like dishwater, but it's rude to refuse.
One more thing...the grass skirt has evolved into the sulu on Fiji, and is worn by men and women. The smarter version is called the sulu va taga ("with pockets"), and is sported by businessmen, the police and ceremonially by the armed forces.

Getting there: Fiji has two international airports on the main island, of which by far the largest is Nadi Airport over on the west coast. Fiji Airways has flights to Adelaide (starting June 2017), Auckland, Brisbane, Christchurch, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Melbourne, San Francisco, Singapore, Sydney and Wellington.
Flights to other Pacific Island nations include Apia, Funafuti (Tuvalu), Honiara (Solomon Islands), Kirimati (aka Christmas Island), Nuku'alofa (Tonga), Port Vila (Vanuatu) and Tarawa (Kiribati) with Fiji Airways. Other island connections include Noumea and Wallis Island with Aircalin, Honiara and Port Moresby with Air Niugini, Port Vila with Air Vanuatu, and Nauru with Nauru Airlines.
On the far east of the main island Nausori International Airport is near to the capital Suva, and has flights with Air Vanuatu to Port Vila, and with Fiji Airways to Apia, Auckland, Funafuti and Nuku'alofa. There are flights to 16 domestic destinations too, with Fiji Airways and Northern Air Northern Air.

What's it like? Arriving in Rarotonga is an instant tonic. It's the main island of the Cooks, home to three-quarters of the archipelago's 20,000 people, yet the longest hotel transfer is 10 miles. The air is hibiscus-scented and the people are disarmingly friendly: you'll likely bump into the chap who stamped your passport in a bar later.

Waves crash onto the island's encircling reefs, protecting azure lagoons, white-sand beaches, palm trees and a thickly forested interior. The tourist industry is well developed, spanning barefoot luxury and barefoot backpacking, and it has good restaurants and raging nightlife. Sights are few, but do catch the Saturday markets, Sunday service in a coral-built church and an "island night" dance show.
If all that sounds too lively, make for Aitutaki, an hour's flight north. It's popular for its Bora Bora-style scenery and overwater bungalows.

One more thing...Albert Royle Henry was the Cooks' first premier, but when it was discovered that he had illegally flown in hundreds of supporters from Auckland on voting day, he was stripped of his knighthood. He remains much loved; his bust, often garlanded, is in a cemetery on Rarotonga. See a piece on the statue, on My Bathroom Wall

Getting there: Raratonga International Airport has flights Air New Zealand to Auckland, Los Angeles and Sydney, Air Tahiti to Papeete, Jetstar to Auckland, and Virgin Australia to Auckland. Air Raratonga flies domestically to Aitutaki, Aitu, Mangaia, and Mauke.
More information: see the Cook Islands Tourism Corporation
What's it like? The main attractions here are the beauty of the islands and the unspoilt way of life. You'll soon unwind to the local rhythm, which in Samoa is very slow indeed. Apia is the capital — home to about 40,000 people, as well as the Palolo Deep Marine Reserve, the Maketi Fou market and the Museum of Samoa. There are some excellent resort hotels around the main island.

Take a gentle drive round the island and you'll pass villages with open-sided thatched fales (houses), women playing a form of cricket and men playing rugby — a religion here, as it is in Fiji and Tonga. Over on wilder Savaii are blowholes, waterfalls, lava fields and forests.
One more thing...Robert Louis Stevenson spent the last four years of his life at Vailima, a couple of miles south of Apia. The grand villa he built is now the fine Robert Louis Stevenson Museum. Climbing up to his tomb on Mount Vaea, behind the house, is sticky as hell, but the inscription and the views are worth it.

Getting there: Faleolo International Airport is 40 kilometres west of the Island's capital, Apia. It has flights to Auckland with Air New Zealand; to Honolulu, Nadi, Suva with Fiji Airways; to Pago Pago and Tau with Inter Island Airways; to Maota and Pago Pago with Polynesian Airlines; to Asau, Canton, Fagali'i, Funafuti, Maota, Pago Pago, and Vava'u with Samoa Air; to Pago Pago with Talofa Airways; and to Auckland, Brisbane and Sydney with Virgin Samoa.
One more thing...Samoa Air charges passengers by weight - the passenger's weight that is. The company weighs them plus their luggage, and then calculates the ticket price based on that. It's a small player on the island, unlike the big rugby blokes who are clobbered by this fare system, but the airline has just two small Cessna light aircraft and mainly operates taxi and air charter services around the country.

What's it like? The turquoise lagoon and ragged peaks of Bora Bora are a seductive interplay of land and sea. The water is clear, the sharp-peaked mountains soar 2,000ft above the sea, and there is nothing to do but do nothing. Birthplace of the overwater bungalow, Bora Bora has dozens of super chic hotels fronting astonishingly beautiful beaches. It's magnificent fly-and-flop territory, but it's expensive and presents a rather Disneyfied version of the Pacific. If you aren't rich and famous, or plotting a blowout honeymoon, you are better off on the black-sand beaches of Tahiti island or the white-sand sensations of Moorea, 10 miles to the west.
Bora Bora is overwater villa central. The first was built in 1970, now there are over a dozen. Photo Tourisme Tahiti
To find the pristine beauty of traditional Polynesia, you should venture to less visited parts of the Society Islands, of which Bora Bora, Tahiti and Moorea are all part. Inhabitants of Huahine, Raiatea and Tahaa share their magical islands and enviably uncomplicated lifestyle with just a handful of idyllic retreats.
Bora Bora is 230 kilometres northwest of Tahiti, dominated by the 727 metre high Mount Pahia
One more thing...Marlon Brando fell for a local girl, Tarita Teriipia, while filming Mutiny on the Bounty in 1962. He built his bolt hole 36 miles north of Tahiti, on Tetiaroa, and opened a hotel there in 1973. It has now closed its doors, but a new environmentally friendly 35 villa lodge called, inevitably, The Brando, opened in 2014.
By the looks of it, even the bogs at The Brando are sublime. Photo The Brando
Getting there: Fa'aa International Airport is the gateway airport for all of French Polynesia. It's located on the Island of Tahiti. five kilometres from the capital of Papeete. It handles international flights from Auckland with Air New Zealand and Air Tahiti Nui, from Honolulu with Hawaiian Airlines, from Los Angles with Air France and Air Tahiti Nui, from Noumea with Aircalin, from Paris with Air France and Air Tahiti Nui, and from Raratonga with Air Tahiti. And Air Tahiti flies to 25 French Polynesian Islands.

What's it like? Vanuatu is one of the closest island nations to Australia, and gets a fair number of Aussie package holidaymakers, but it's still friendly and far from overdeveloped, with good hotels and great beaches.
Not of all the Pacific is pricey; Hideaway Island has simple room for about £30 a night. Photo Lisa McKay
It was once shared between the British and French empires, hence the French ambience in the lovely little capital, Port Vila, and the decidedly tasty food. Things get livelier on the outlying islands. Tanna has wild horses, a half-mile coral reef drop-off, hot springs, waterfalls and Mount Yasur, the most accessible active volcano in the world, where you can stand and marvel as the earth trembles and spumes of lava spit skywards. Just off Espiritu Santo island, there's a pearl of a wreck dive — the luxury liner turned troop ship SS President Coolidge hit a friendly mine in 1942, and now lies with her stern 240ft underwater.
One more thing...the land-diving ritual takes place on Pentecost Island on Saturdays between April and June. Young men jump from rickety towers with vines tied to their feet. It's bungee jumping without the elastic, helmets or safety equipment — so freakishly scary-looking that it can be tough to watch.
Getting there: Bauerfield International Airport is close to Port Vile, the capital of Vanuatu. It handles flights from Auckland, Brisbane, and Sydney with Air Vanuatu, Brisbane with Virgin Australia. Flights from other Pacific nations include Noumea with Aircalin, Port Moresby with Air Niugini, Honiara with Solomon Airlines, and Nadi and Suva with Fiji Airways. Air Vanuatu flies to 14 of the country's islands.

What's it like? The kingdom of Tonga was never colonised by Europeans, something that has kept the island as a crucible of Polynesian tradition. The sleepy capital, Nuku'alofa ("Abode of Love"), is on the main island, Tongatapu. It's flat and largely cultivated, with watermelons, bananas and more. Sights are in short supply, but for a glimpse of royalty, scrub up and head to the Centenary Chapel for the Sunday service — even if the king isn't in town, the singing is heart-warming.
Yachts in a lagoon. Photo Tourism Tonga
This is one of the poorest countries in the Pacific. It's totally unspoilt, but may be too laid-back for some — the extreme torpor could well become frustrating. If, however, you can adjust to the notoriously elastic "Tonga time", you are in for a treat.
One more thing...Tonga is the only kingdom in the Pacific. Queen Salote attended the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, and thrilled spectators by riding in an open carriage, waving all the way despite the pouring rain. The current king is the 58 year old Tupou VI.
Getting there: Fua'amotu» International Airport is 35 kilometres from the capital of Nuku'alofa. It handles flights from Auckland with Air New Zealand and Virgin Australia, to Nadi and Suva with Fiji Airways, and Sydney with Virgin Australia.

What's it like? The Federated States of Micronesia occupy 1m square miles of ocean, yet have a combined land area just greater than the Isle of Man's — and they sure do reward the effort of a visit.
Swinging hammocks on the island of Chuuk
Chuuk (formerly Truk) has more than 50 shipwrecks in its lagoon, mainly Japanese ships from the second world war, and is a diving nirvana. Yap guards its traditions with gusto: here, dance is central and some men still wear loincloths. Kosrae is a lush island with great diving, and Pohnpei is home to Nan Madol, an extraordinary ruined city made up of 100 islets, in a system of canals dating from the 12th century.
One more thing...Yap is the home of stone coins, known as rai, which look like cast off car wheels from the Flintstones. Up to 12ft across, they can weigh several tons.

The Guamanian flag is an endearingly homely affair that dates back to 1917. Apparently it was designed by the US base commander's wife, Helen Paul, who made many sketches of Guam, including one showing a single palm tree on a beach at the mouth of the Hagåtña River.
Her sketch was then copied by some students in a home economics class - which sounds about as random as one of my school 'cookery classes', in which I was made to stand in the corner for the entire lesson as punishment for wearing my grubby old woodwork apron.
Anyway, here it is, with the central oval echoing the shape of a local Chamorro slingstone weapon, the passing boat a traditional 'proa' sailing boat, and in the background is a representation of 'Two Lover's Point' where legend has it that two lovers refused to be separated, tied their hair together and jumped of a cliff.

What about wind direction? It appears that the wind is traveling to the starboard of Bismarck... wasn't the wind going northeast that day?
Iowa could withstand shells of her own calibre, until the introduction of the heavyweight shells later introduced in WWII... If my memory serves me correct. I can only assume, in the lightweight nature of Bismarck's shells for her 15in guns, that the 16in version would probably be the same.
Aircraft are sturdy vehicles of war, but not a single one has ever been designed to be able to take a direct hit from a 5in shell. From what I understand the American 5in had a faster rate of fire than either the 5.25in or 6in.

Unidentified Shooter Kills 1 At Wisconsin Mall
The Fox River Mall at Northern Wisconsin recently witnessed a fatal shooting which claimed the life of one person.
One Dead In Wisconsin Mall Shooting
A person lost his life in a fatal shooting at the Fox River Mall at Grand Chute in Northern Wisconsin. The incident occurred at around 3.30 pm as an unidentified armed man entered the mall.
The gunshots he fired left one dead. And apart from that, another person was injured in the attack. This shooting has created havoc in the Wisconsin region.
The cops have still failed to identify the culprit and an investigating team has been appointed to nab the criminal as soon as possible. The injured victim is getting treated at the nearby hospital.
Culprit On The Loose
As per the Wisconsin Police Department no any eye witnesses were able to identify the shooter thus making it hard for them to nab him. The eyewitnesses at the mall includes the staff and the visitors who could only explain what exactly happened on that day.
Everyone was so terrified by the gunshots that no one could actually remember any specific details on the shooter. Although the investigating team is keenly observing the camera footages.
But the fact that the shooter is still roaming free has been raising concerns throughout because there are chances that he might actually initiate some more violent acts. Thus it is a big challenge for the concerned authorities to nab him as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the public.

Vallejo police are investigating the death of a pedestrian who was found dead under a woman's truck early Sunday morning.
The 28-year-old driver of the truck called police when she noticed a man's body under her Chevrolet truck when she arrived home around 2 a.m., police Lt. Michael Nichelini said.
Police believe the man, whose name has not been released, became lodged under the truck when he was struck somewhere on Borges Lane near Agnes Court in north Vallejo. The woman drove about three-quarters of a mile before she stopped at her home, Nichelini said.
The woman said she saw what looked like clothing in the roadway but was unaware she struck someone. There was no damage to the front of her truck and the man might have been hit earlier by another vehicle, Nichelini said this morning.
The woman is cooperating with the investigation and it does not appear drugs or alcohol are factors in the case, Nichelini said.
The woman, who was not arrested, has a suspended driver's license and an outstanding warrant for theft, according to Nichelini.
Today's case is the 13th fatality from a collision on Vallejo city streets this year. Anyone with information is asked to call Officer Waylon Boyce at (707) 648-4014.


Lattice work on sneakers isn't really my style: any model with uppers more ornate than the basic Nike Woven doesn't usually have me foaming at the mouth, unless we're talking pastries. But this tongue-twisting Tier Zero release (I consider myself semi-knowledgeable with sneaker names, but even I can't easily recall the full name of this one) is perfect.
The use of soft suede leather is great and gives a really tactile finish to an already-perfect colourway, even though the British summer this year looks guaranteed to keep these as in-the-house slippers for the moment. I fear that one brush with the elements would render these into beaters immediately. Being part of the limited edition Night Cats pack from Bodega, these flew out of the shops immediately, as did the accompanying other two models.
I met the Bodega guys when we worked on the aZX project at adidas in Germany and interviewed them for their section in the accompanying films. Great guys and they run a great store in Boston, which I hope to see in person within the next 12 months.
Nothing like a shoe that highlights my stupidity and fickle nature. I bought a pair of these when they came out in 2005, kept them shut in a box for years – and then sold them. I've no idea why, because I always really liked them. I ended up replacing them earlier this year and I've been wearing them a lot recently. Great colours, premium leather and some other nice details, like the laser-etched camo heels all came from the minds of the guys at the Opium store in Paris. The Hyperstrike version with the faux snakeskin was pretty cool as well.
The first pair I got came with three different colours of laces – black, fluro yellow and purple – but my replacements were missing the purples, which is why there are some Mr. Lacy replacements in these at the moment.
