Amazing photos of Hotel Mosman revealed for the first time. See inside the landmark building!
Mosman Collective is thrilled to introduce you to writer Mick Roberts, who joins our local history team this week. A newspaper journalist and author with an interest in Australian cultural and social history, Mick has been writing on the subject for 30 years. His first report traces the history of former local landmark, Hotel Mosman.
For more than a century, dominating the corner of Military Road and Vista Street, the Hotel Mosman was one of Sydney's favourite pubs.
In its heyday, when Sydney's breweries monopolised the hospitality industry – the imposing landmark was the pride and joy of its owner, Tooheys Limited.
Hotel Mosman. A local landmark for more than 100 years.
Of the Brewery's 215 tied houses in NSW, the Hotel Mosman – in 1950 – fetched its highest rental.
Although rebuilt twice, the pub maintained its position as a premier tourist hotel while providing a popular bar for thirsty locals to enjoy a drink.

When it opened in 1885, at the highest point in Mosman, the pub became known as "The Inkerman", a nod to its owner Joseph Harding, who had fought in the Crimean War.
Boasting unparalleled views of Sydney Harbour, Harding's hotel even had a viewing platform on its roof-top, offering a "splendid panoramic view of Sydney and the country", south to the National Park and southwest to Glebe.
An experienced publican, the 43-year-old engaged north shore builder W.J Langdon to construct a two-storey brick hotel featuring cantilevered balconies facing Military Rd.
Bernhardt Otto Holtermann, best known for finding the world's largest gold specimen in 1872, laid the foundation stone.

With its 33 rooms, "arranged to form separate suites for the accommodation of families" and an abundant water supply, Harding's Family Hotel, or "The Inkerman", provided a welcome respite to weary travellers and a much-needed watering hole for Mosman residents.
Despite its early success, Harding advertised the hotel for sale within months of opening, eventually selling in 1889 to Frank Snudden.
A Canadian native, Snudden had immigrated to Australia with his wife Elizabeth but soon raised local eyebrows after a salacious extra-marital affair was uncovered.

In 1897, 51-year-old George Stansell was next to be granted the licence.
Renamed "Stansell's Family Hotel", renovations were made to accommodate a fast-growing population, including updated furniture and fittings.
The Mosman Mail reported on January 1 1900 that the hotel balcony featured ornate ironwork with "shamrock and thistle ornamentation" and became the preferred location for "golden-tongued orators and single-hearted politicians" to deliver their messages to the community.
Stansell eventually sold the hotel to former Adelaide mayor Arthur Wellington Ware in 1908, who then passed the baton to local builder Joseph Blain Cook within a year.
Through most of World War I, Cook hosted the hotel with his wife, Elizabeth, having built the Buena Vista Hotel in 1899.
When he gained the license, a name change was made – and Hotel Mosman was borne.

The Cooks retired from the Hotel Mosman in 1916, leasing the business to Patrick McGrath. Elizabeth died aged 56 in 1919, and her husband, Joseph the following year, was 62.
After his death, Hotel Mosman was bought from his estate by brewery giant, Tooheys Limited. It was during their ownership that two significant changes occurred on the site.
The Brewery rebuilt the old-established hotel – twice – during its ownership.
Tooheys, with the new leaseholder, James Moore, engaged architects, E. and E. R. Justelius to strip the old Hotel Mosman of its Victorian charm, including the ornate balconies and roof-top viewing platform, and give it a modern, contemporary look.
Tooheys first "rebuild" of the site delivered a state-of-the-art hotel to Mosman in 1925.
The architects contracted builder R. Blundell for the alterations and additions in October 1925.
By May the following year, McGrath was advertising the completed "New Hotel Mosman" as having "first-class accommodation for gentlemen", with "new furniture and hot and cold water in each bedroom".
Hotel Mosman had its second reincarnation in 1938 when Tooheys Limited again engaged hotel architects, Justelius and Frederick to update and extend building.

The 1925 version of Hotel Mosman made way for a new, three-storey landmark on the corner. When completed, it was the most impressive building on Sydney's lower north shore.
Interestingly there seems to have been no official opening of the grand building, which likely took place just before Prime Minister Robert Menzies announced Australia's entry into the Second World War, in September 1939.
Advertised as "Australia's most modern hotel" with exquisite furnishings, a hot water service and telephone in every room, no expense had been spared on the redevelopment of one of Sydney's largest suburban hotels.
The stunning structure took every advantage of its prime Spit Junction location, with its rounded curve entrance and sweeping lines. And in a suburb yet to shed its Imperial clothes, this shiny Art Deco masterpiece presented an air of progress and modernity.
Despite the outbreak of war, the Hotel Mosman became the place to be seen during the 1940s. Opulent parties, balls and wedding receptions became commonplace, and celebrities of the day – like Charles Kingsford Smith and Charles Ulm – attended functions there.
Charles Kingsford-Smith and Charles Ulm were both visitors to Hotel Mosman.
During a function in October 1940, Doris Cox, sister of Randwick horse trainer Bailey Payten, collapsed and died on the pub's dance floor while celebrating at a post race day party.
For most of World War Two, limits were placed on beer production in Australia, requiring breweries to reduce their output by two-thirds. By January 1943, newspapers reported 75 per cent of Sydney's bars were often closed due to a lack of beer and quotas put in place by the breweries.

When Sydney pubs did manage to open, they were often shut by the afternoon, when beer quotas were exhausted.
If supplies were received, the result was chaos.
The Sydney Truth reported on December 24 1944, that publican Michael O'Regan had allocated 10,500 bottles of beer, just in time for Christmas.
He also received 8,788 bottles of wine and "a liberal supply of spirits".
Queues formed outside the pub from 7.30am – and when the doors opened at 11am a crowd of 500 stormed the bottle department.
O'Regan became known for reserving bottles of liquor for his regular customers during the shortages. The Daily Telegraph reported on Friday, December 7 1945, that he would put aside six bottles of beer, one of gin or rum and one wine, for each of his patrons to take home with them after enjoying a few drinks at the bar.
Another terrific tale involves a woman who regularly placed her three-year-old son in a garbage bin on the footpath outside the pub.
Mr Keane, the North Sydney supervisor of the National Salvage Campaign – a government initiative encouraging people to recycle for the war effort – first noticed the boy one Saturday morning. The Newcastle Sun on March 29, 1944, explained how Keane took the child out of the basket and placed him on the footpath.
For the next few weeks, Keane returned to the location, lifting the child out of the garbage bin each time.
His kind deeds came to an end, however, when the boy's mother stormed out of the hotel one afternoon, shouting: "So you're the one who's been stopping my kid's play and spoiling my drinking".
Like most Sydney pubs, the 'six-o'clock swill' was a nightly event in Mosman, when men – and a few brave women – would rush the bar between 5pm and closing time.
Hotel Mosman was described by one resident in 1946 as a "horrible shambles" at the 6pm closing time!
In 1947, The Daily Telegraph described 6pm closing as an "undignified stand-up battle for an after work drink in gloomy, unattractive surroundings."
"This rushed drinking against the clock forces most men to drink too much, too quickly and it leads to drunkenness. Our hog-trough drinking conditions amaze civilised Australian's and overseas visitors."
Around that time, Hotel Mosman was described by one local resident as a "horrible shambles" each evening. In a letter to the editor on March 4 1946, 'Been Around', wrote: "Men fight on the footpath, curse, shout, and spit, and sleep it off on the tram seats, and drunken women stagger down the main street. Give me Woolloomooloo any time."
In the late 1940s, wealthy businessman Walter Patrick McGrath took the head-lease of the pub from Tooheys Brewery.
From 1947 to 1949, retired NSW Police Detective Aubrey Keating took over the reins.
A hardened copper, his most unusual request was to supply a Taronga Zoo's baby elephant with a bucket of flat beer.
When the Keeper arrived at the pub and explained the mammal's plight, Keating drew off a quart, allowed it to stand for four hours, and sent it back to Taronga Zoo.
The elephant polished off the beer and reportedly showed immediate improvement.

The hotel remained a playground for wealthy tourists during the 1940s, like the wealthy English businessman who cabled from Hong Kong, to reserve a suite for a week.
The Daily Telegraph reported on September 28, the man had requested a "memorable reunion" for his wife with a menu of hors d'oeuvres, ice, and soda, followed by Tasmanian Cascade or Melbourne beer.
After lunch in the Dining Room, he wanted bowls of flowers, with plenty of violets, roses, and lilies — but no white lilies.
Two bottles of Scotch and a bottle of sparkling hock or burgundy were also to be left in the suite.
"I would greatly appreciate it if you could assist me in making my stay at Mosman, a memorable reunion with my wife. My wife may arrive from Melbourne in the afternoon. My plane is not likely to reach Sydney until after dinner. We would prefer a suite with a double bed and our own bathroom."
Keating, the Telegraph reported, made assurances to meet all the guests' requirements.
"My wife will personally supervise the floral decorations," he said. "I will attend to all the other requests myself. He shall have Scotch, and she shall have roses. Mosman won't let tourists down."

In 1950, Tooheys Brewery owned 216 hotels in NSW and held a lease or tenancy of 64 more. Of the freeholds, 78 were in the metropolitan area, including Hotel Mosman, commanding the highest weekly rent of £105.
Over three years, the lease was worth £12,500 to Tooheys. Undoubtedly, it was the goose that laid the golden egg amongst hundreds of pubs.
The hotel remained a favourite watering hole for locals in the 1960s, and an additional storey was added to the roof.
Dennis Francis, from Shadforth Street Mosman, recalls the hectic pace of the pub.
"The Mosman Hotel of a late afternoon was always packed, standing room only with drinkers hanging out of the doors on Friday afternoon," he said.
"The Salvation Army Band played on Spit Road; they also ran a chocolate wheel which was always popular."
HOTEL MOSMAN: 1970s and 1980s.
Mosman's famed hotel suffered a gradual decline in the late 70s and early 80s, before a takeover by Alan Bond's Austotel. Images: Mosman Library/Trace.
Before the pub's demise, it was a famous venue for Sydney's biggest musical acts.
Between 1980 and 1987, iconic bands like Sherbet, Choir Boys, Hoodoo Gurus, Spy v Spy, and INXS attracted massive crowds. But it wasn't enough to save the historic pub from the hand of developers.
The beginning of the end came for the Hotel Mosman in 1985.
When Alan Bond's 'Bond Corporation' purchased the Brewery now known as Castlemaine Tooheys, it inherited Hotel Mosman. The controversial new owner sold off many pubs, including Mosman's, in the late 1980s.
At the time, the lessees of the Hotel Mosman won a Supreme Court battle for compensation after they were evicted by the new owners. Despite this, the Hotel Mosman, after more than a century, closed for business in January 1988.
The site became part of a $40 million retail development undertaken by Austotel for a commercial and retail complex known as Bridgepoint.

Lyle Slovick, author of Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions, on tour July 2016

About Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions
• Hardcover: 304 pages
• Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers (May 16, 2016)
Golf can be a vexing and cruel game, and teaches us much about ourselves. It has been described as "a contest calling for courage, skill, strategy and self-control. It is a test of temper, a trial of honor, a revealer of character." In the end, as with most of life, success hinges on the character and spirit we possess. But how would our tempers be tested if we suffered a career-threatening injury from a near-fatal car accident, as Ben Hogan did in the prime of his life? How would our honor be preserved if we faced constant derision and racism both on and off the golf course, as Charlie Sifford encountered his entire career? How would our character be revealed if cancer robbed us of the ability to play the game we loved, as it did to Babe Didrikson Zaharias? Would we give in to self pity, or persevere and keep going?
In Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions: A Legacy of Hope, Lyle Slovick has pulled together the inspirational stories of six golfers and a caddy whose strength of character sustained them against the physical and emotional trials that threatened both their careers and lives. In an era when many athletes have lost their luster as role models, the people in this book—Harry Vardon, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan, Babe Didrikson Zaharias, Charlie Sifford, Ken Venturi, and Bruce Edwards—offer lessons in perseverance, dignity, humility, and faith. Slovick tells each of their stories with rich detail, including the childhoods that shaped their characters, their rise in the world of professional golf, the crises they faced in their lives, their struggles to keep doing what they loved, and their refusal to give up. They had their flaws, to be sure. But when faced with a true test of will, all showed a strength that inspired those around them.
The first book to gather the stories of these golfers into a single volume, Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions offers a unique blend of characters who shared the same love for a game that gave them the courage and fortitude they needed to face whatever life threw their way. This book will not only interest golfers and fans of the game, it will also inspire those who have suffered their own personal setbacks and show them they are not alone in their trials.
Read The Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions as it delves into much more than the surface history of these famous golfers, detailing the obstacles and struggles with which they all had to deal. — Tom Watson, member of the World Golf Hall of Fame, winner of eight major championships
Trials and Triumphs is the perfect affirmation of what makes golf the greatest game of all—overcoming odds and adversities to achieve greatness. As you will see, there is no other way! — Jim Nantz, CBS Sports
Why is golf one of our greatest games? Because it tests us—our patience, persistence, perseverance—in ways we don't expect and often can't even imagine. In Trials and Triumphs of Golf's Greatest Champions, Lyle Slovick reminds us, through the soaring profiles of golf's most courageous fighters from Bobby Jones to Babe Didrikson Zaharias, that far more important than any golf lesson is the grit and greatness we find inside ourselves when we need it most. — Don Van Natta Jr., ESPN investigative reporter, Pulitzer Prize winner, and author of New York Times bestseller First Off the Tee and USGA Book Award winner Wonder Girl: The Magnificent Sporting Life of Babe Didrikson Zaharias

Daughters of Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus  (Filles de la Charité du Sacré-Coeur de Jésus; F.C.S.C.J.) is a congregation established on 18 December 1823 in France by Jean-Maurice Catroux (3 October 1794 – 16 April 1863) and Rose Giet (3 December 1784 – 3 January 1848). The sisters serve in nine countries as  educators, health care workers, and pastoral care ministers.

History
Jean-Maurice Catroux was born 3 October 1794 and ordained a priest 19 December 1818. He became pastor at La Salle-de-Vihiers on 28 December 1820. Rose Giet was born 3 December 1784. She agreed to take charge of the education of children. Other young women joined her to educate the young and care for the sick. On 18 December 1823, the day the congregation marks as its founding, Giet became a professed religious, taking the name Sister Marie. Their work spread to other parishes Anjou, of Poitou and the area of Nantes.

The Congregation developed rapidly until 1902 when the French government expelled religious from the schools. Some took up secular garb, some left France. In 1905, four sisters arrived in Newport, Vermont. In 1911, Bishop Paul LaRocque created a Canadian novitiate in Sherbrooke, Quebec.

In 1960, the Daughters of Charity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus established a novitiate in Littleton, New Hampshire. Ten years later, the building became an extended care facility. It also houses the central administration for Sacred Heart for New England, New York and Louisiana. In the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg, they serve in Plattsburg.

They also have a presence is the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Durban.

Lily Banner has spent her entire life oblivious to the true secrets of the paranormal world around her. When her day job in the lab puts her in the middle of a supernatural war bubbling just beneath the surface, she finds herself in need of help—but the aid comes from a stranger with more secrets than she could possibly imagine.
Angelic warrior Shade Griffin is charged with protecting the ancient secrets of the paranormals. But when he finds Lily, his world shifts, and his allegiance changes, forcing those who want Lily eliminated to take action.
The war between the realms is on the edge of a blade, and only Shade and Lily can stop it.
I think my favorite thing about Dust of My Wings and the lore behind Shade is what an angel is. They aren't creatures sent by god, they aren't inherently good - they are supernatural creatures that have a bit of a reputation. It was quite refreshing to see them this way, and I really loved their society and the descriptions of their home. Shade is in trouble, though. He's left some angel dust laying around and a human had her hands on it now. The council is breathing down his neck telling him to fix it - by whatever means necessary. And he really hopes it doesn't get that far, especially one he meets the little neat freak, Lily. Lily was amazing - I loved all her little habits. And - well, not to give too much away, but when her paranormal side comes out - it's perfect, 100% perfect! It was a brilliant touch that really went far with me. My biggest problem with the story was in the side details. Some of them just didn't quite get explained enough for me, or they just weren't flushed out to the point that they really made a lot of sense. There were a couple details that seemed a bit out of place - I'm hoping they come into play later. There was also a missing spark between Shade and Lily. For destined mates, they just didn't seem to click with me.
I love how the series began. The way the characters interact with one another . I fell in love with her writing, because it's simple and the touch of reality and fantasy were perfectly combined. Dust of My Wings it kinda funny and sensual that makes you think twice about angels. And it's kinda ironic that they have this "dust" . I was like; "tinker bell is that you?". But over all, this is a good book to read if you haven't read Carrie Ann Ryan, this is a good book to start.
I could not get over the fact this book was about an angel and after discovering that he had fallen in love with a human who turned out to be a brownie......just amazing and awe inspiring.
So the premise wasn't anything new. I would have appreciated it if the author could have come up with a more tactful description of the origin of the angel race in her book without taking a dig at religion. Not cool.

Lethbridge, AB – The Lethbridge Hurricanes honoured the 1997 Championship team Saturday night and the current edition of the 'Canes continued their roll earning a 3-0 victory over the Moose Jaw Warriors in front of 4,447 at the ENMAX Centre.
The Hurricanes and Warriors played a very even game. The Hurricanes were outshot 11-8 in the opening period but led the game 1-0 after twenty minutes of play. Tyler Wong opened the scoring at the 10:02 mark as he beat Zach Sawchenko low to the blocker side with a quick snap shot for his team-leading 38th goal of the season – Egor Babenko and Brennan Riddle picked up the assists on the goal.
There were plenty of chances in the second period for both teams. The Warriors started the second period with a power play and on that man advantage, Moose Jaw hit two goal posts while the Hurricanes' Zane Franklin hit a post while shorthanded. The 'Canes added two more posts in the middle frame but weren't able to solve Sawchenko. Lethbridge outshot Moose Jaw 14-7 in the second period.
In the third, the 'Canes and Warriors continued in the stalemate as Moose Jaw pressed outshooting Lethbridge 13-9 in the final twenty minutes. The Warriors could not beat Stuart Skinner, however, who was great making 31 saves for his second shutout of the season. The Hurricanes made it a 2-0 lead as Brennan Menell potted an empty net goal for his 10th of the season with 53 seconds left – Tanner Nagel and Jadon Joseph picked up the helpers. Moose Jaw pulled the goalie again and with a chance at the empty-net Babenko was hauled down by Brayden Burke and subsequently awarded his 17th goal of the season – Brady Pouteau and Giorgio Estephan picked up the assists to make it 3-0. On the ensuing faceoff, there was a line brawl that resulted in the entire Joseph line being ejected from the game.
The Hurricanes were outshot 13-9 in the third period but the shots were tied 31-31 overall in the game. The Hurricanes went 0/3 on the power play, but two of the opportunities came with under 30 seconds left in the game; Moose Jaw was 0/2 on the man advantage.
The win for the Hurricanes extends their winning streak to seven straight and their point streak to 13 straight games. The 'Canes improved to 31-15-4-3 on the season.
The Hurricanes are back in action on Wednesday when they travel to take on the Red Deer Rebels at the ENMAX Centrium. The 'Canes will be at home next when they host the Prince Albert Raiders next Friday at 7:00pm. Tickets can be purchased online, by calling 403-329-SEAT (7328) or by visiting the ENMAX Centre or Yates Ticket Centre's.

Recovering a biblical history laced with loss helps us bridge the gap between trauma thousands of years ago and trauma today. Register online.

Motorola Moto X review
8/10 AVG.
The Motorola Moto X currently has an Informr score of 8 out of 10. This score is based on our evaluation of 59 sources including reviews from users and the web's most trusted critics.
The Motorola Moto X is the first Google-created phone from Motorola. Unlike many other smartphones of its class, the Moto X offers incredible customization from memory storage to color choice of the phone itself.
The X offers a 1.7 GHz dual-core processor, 2GB of memory and either 16 or 32B of onboard storage. Although these specs aren't particularly impressive, especially compared to phones like the HTC One and Galaxy S4, TechRadar notes that that phone offers notable features such as "hands-free Google Now voice commands, a clever notification system and camera access with the flick of wrist." Despite the lower hardware specs, the phone boasts a long battery life and, according to Motorola, can last up to 10 days on standby mode and Engadget notes that the battery life lasted well over 24-hours with numerous apps running.
The 4.7" screen on the Moto X has a 720p resolution, which is lower than the HTC One display and other smartphones in its class. Despite a slightly lower resolution, Engadget notes that the screen "looks great from most any angle...That said, it's not the brightest display...and the glaring light of a bright summer sun does make it difficult to discern onscreen content." In addition, the smaller screen means a smaller phone. TechRadar says that the size and weight of the phone make it easier to wield than current Android leaders and goes on to say that "it's easy to operate in one hand, due to its moderate size as well as a power button and volume rocker on the right side."
Most reviewers agree that the Moto X is an excellent phone despite some pitfalls. Engadget states that "it's the smartest smart object I'm currently carrying on my person." While TechRadar disliked the camera quality and the lack of removable storage they still praise the phone saying, "It is a great phone though, one we'd be happy to champion."
The Good: Excellent battery life, good viewing angle, customization of actual phone color.
The Bad: Poor quality camera, no removable storage, lower screen resolution when compared to Android phone leaders.

Motorola's pure Android smartphone updated with a larger screen

Don't think that just because the Moto X 2014 name didn't get much of a change that the phone is just a basic specs bump. The first four days with Motorola's new flagship smartphone proves that the reinvented company is listening to customer feedback with a bigger screen and flashier 13-megapixel rear camera, all for a price that's better than its competition.
We're finding out that it's not perfect for everyone's needs, though. The 2300mAh battery could be more robust and the soft leather back has proven vulnerable to scrapes even without carrying keys on our pockets. Should have gone with the wood paneling that costs extra. Motorola also teases a Turbo Charger, but doesn't include it. That's extra too.
Still, Motorola is continuing with its Moto Maker policies for customization. That means custom backs including premium wood paneling and trim accents on the front as well as around the camera lens. And yet it doesn't tinker with the pure Android experience set forth by Google. The specs are more robust while the software stays minimal, pretty much the opposite of other phones out there. That's just the way Motorola rolls, and we rather enjoy it.
The right size but not all the right features for me
Mahmoud Mfinanga from UltraLinx ( 04 Jul 2014 00:00 )
The Moto X is an option for those wondering if there is a feature-rich Android phone with a form-factor similar to the iPhone 5s. The Moto X offers the cleanest, purest version of Android, plus several intuitive enhancements.
Although it has good software in a great size, it has a lot of major shortcomings that cannot be ignored....
For the price, it is somewhat reasonable, but not enough to prevent me from purchasing a similar Android device: the Nexus 5. The Moto X has the right size but not all the right features for me.
Unique features make it compelling as a smartphone
Clinton Jeff from UnleashThePhones ( 01 May 2014 04:00 )
The Moto X has a lot going for it, even now many months since its' release in the US. It runs an almost stock version of Android, has solid build quality, a decent camera, water-resistant properties, great performance for the pricetag, and has some very cool features that set it apart as a unique offering. And depending on where you are in the world, you can even use Moto Maker to customize your Moto X somewhat, making it even more unique. There are very little compromises made with the Moto X, to be honest....

The Moto X certainly has a premium look, when compared to the Moto G which has a thicker profile.The Moto X features a body made out of PET composite, a durable plastic; although feels rugged and is surprisingly lightweight.
The camera is not very inspiring, and battery performance could have been better. However, the Moto X with its unique software enhancements still comes out looking like a winner....
The camera is not very inspiring, and battery performance could have been better. However, the Moto X with its unique software enhancements still comes out looking like a winner.
It might not be a game changer with its specifications, as there are now devices which boast octa-core processors and higher resolution screens, but the Moto X is definitely a contender in the mid-range segment.

Overall, the Moto X is definitely one of the best smartphones under Rs. 23,999. It excels in performance, battery life and unique software features, but there are some drawbacks like non-removable back cover and just 12GB of usable memory. If you are looking for a smartphone with large 1080p screen and quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor , this phone is not for you. But, if you need a compact smartphone running on the latest version of stock Android under Rs. 25,000, this the best out there.
Glorious AMOLED screen, great size, and feels great in the hand
James Pearce from Coolsmartphone ( 06 Apr 2014 04:00 )
The Moto X is a cracking phone, it's got a great design, some great software and some decent specs. But for me it's just out of place in the UK market. It's been dropping in price for the last few weeks and is currently just about cheaper than the LG G2 and Nexus 5, which in my opinion are both better devices for only a little bit more money...

It's been dropping in price for the last few weeks and is currently just about cheaper than the LG G2 and Nexus 5, which in my opinion are both better devices for only a little bit more money.
As to how I would have improved the Moto X, a Micro SD slot, a half inch more screen, a slightly better camera and of course the whole Moto Maker thing to be available to us UK people. As to whether I prefer this, my Moto G, my Nexus 5 or my LG G2 best I don't know. I guess I'm on the fence with the LG G2 and the Moto X.
A lovely smartphone but doesn't stand out against its competitors
Sophie Curtis from The Telegraph ( 02 Apr 2014 04:00 )
The Moto X does feel like a more premium device than the Moto G, primarily because of its slimmer lighter frame and larger display, which leaves almost no bezel around the edge of the screen. Google Now is an excellent addition, and will no doubt become a major selling point as demand grows for voice-operated control...

Google Now is an excellent addition, and will no doubt become a major selling point as demand grows for voice-operated control.
However, the success of the Moto G hinges on its price-to-specification ratio. For £135, it really stands out from the crowd. The Moto X is a lovely smartphone, but I'm not sure it stands out quite as much against its competitors in this price bracket.

The Moto X may not boast hardware as impressive as its high-end counterparts, but it's still a choice buy. For one thing, it doesn't really have any major, deal-breaking flaws (that's rare on a mid-range phone); instead it has tons of advantages. Plus, Motorola's added features, like voice and gesture control, hit their mark and are more than just gimmicky window dressing.
since i have gotten this phone, ive had nothing but problems.
vibeke ( 25 Apr 2016 00:00 )
This phone doesn't have a block number feature, the backing pops off too easily and its hard to find a decent case for this phone. Ive had two of these phones, one being a replacement and the battery is expanding and it shuts off saying its dead even though its fully charged.


This dry, medium body wine has a beautiful bouquet of freshly picked peaches and apricots with underlying citrus notes.
The crisp citrus flavor of this wine matches well with seafood. Pair with local oysters and mussels or fried calamari.

He began studying piano at age six,[1] became a professional musician at 16, and received a Master of Music degree from Washington University in St. Louis in 1982. Two years later he moved to New Orleans and became noted for the styles of jazz associated with that town, especially Dixieland jazz and ragtime. He was in the group "Dukes of Dixieland" through much of the 1990s. In 1994 he co-founded and wrote arrangements for the innovative brass band the New Orleans Nightcrawlers. He has released nine CDs as a leader, and has received praise from the New York Times, Rolling Stone magazine, the Los Angeles Times and other publications. Since 2001 he has devoted much time travelling to Brazil, where he has studied and recorded Brazilian choro music.
McDermott is also a journalist, writing primarily about music and travel. He has explained that he is of Irish Catholic and Swedish descent.

A much grander hybrid is the V & A's 18th-century carved Indian chair. Handcrafted in Murshidabad, it represents a remarkable fusion of eastern and western styles. Some perceive it to be classic while others find it flamboyant. The museum recorded a great conversation about the piece, available here.
In Birmingham, the party is just getting started. There was a tremendous turnout for last week's premiere of Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present at the Birmingham Museum of Art. And Starting July 7, the BMA introduces First Thursdays, offering visitors a chance to explore Rock & Roll, Faces of India, and all of the galleries after hours from 5 to 9 p.m. Admission to the permanent collection will be free on these nights, so this is a terrific date activity.
Selvedge, issue 41, takes an in depth look at the plant-based blue dyes and pigments known as indigo in the east and woad in the west. Some of the interesting resources highlighted by the magazine include Bleu de Pastel de Lectoure and The Academy of Arts and Sciences of Woad.
After doing some exploration of my own, I noticed that woad specialist Denise Lambert is scheduled to visit California's French General in the fall. Although her October Woad Workshop is currently sold out, you can click here to see images from a previous event and here for a podcast with Lambert. Above are two fun items I spotted in the Bleu de Lectoure shop. For woad in the movies, check out 1997's The Serpent's Kiss.
Selvedge also reports that the British Museum is releasing this summer a new edition of Jenny Balfour-Paul's Indigo: From Egyptian Mummies to Blue Jeans. (More on Balfour-Paul here.) And in other textile news, the magazine is offering illustrators an opportunity to be published. As part of the Fabric Swatch competition, editors ask that you choose an unusual textile and illustrate it. Details and past examples can be found on page 83 of issue 41. The deadline is September 30, 2011.
This was going to be (at long last) the summer of the DIY headboard.
But after numerous attempts to reconfigure the furniture in my small office/craft area/guest room, it became clear that the room functions the best and looks the most pleasing with the bed positioned in front of the windows, sans conventional headboard blocking natural light. The bed actually looks really nice simply framed by floor-to-ceiling curtains.
So I'm playing around with linen, burlap (love Angie Hranowsky's burlap curtains) and Ralph Lauren's low-key cotton Umbrella Fringe. Yesterday, the idea of a curtain inspired by Sibella Court's Hamman towels came to me.
For now, at least I can share the type of headboard I would've made. Inspired by Elise's headboard in The Adjustment Bureau, I planned to avoid complicated shapes. The straight, unfussy lines of her piece show off the asymmetrically placed Indian fabric border to its best advantage.
Since we're already in an imaginary realm, I'll add that my far out fantasy was to have made custom fabric based on an antique textile in the V & A's collection. Below are some examples. I love the cotton most but wanted to mix other options into this post for fun. In nearly each case, a border along the bottom would need to be adapted to mimic the side placement of the movie headboard. The lone border-less pattern would need some sort of contrasting fabric.
All V & A images are from Rosemary Crill's book, Indian Florals, from the V & A's Pattern series. You might also like London Calling.
It's been over a year and I'm still debating whether or not to order a bunch of postcards (specifically repros of antique hand-blocked prints, embroideries, court fabrics, etc. with interesting borders) from India's Calico Museum of Textiles. And even though museum gift shop posters aren't my usual thing, this mini-poster, above -- a gorgeous repro of a late 18th-century hand-painted textile -- is calling out to me too. I'd use it on an inspiration board or maybe mix it on an office wall with framed photographs and original drawings.
Up next: inspired by the vintage Indian textiles covering this headboard in The Adjustment Bureau.
So far this summer I'd struck out numerous times trying to see the weighty tome, My Faraway One: Selected Letters of Georgia O'Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz, at a local brick-and-mortar bookstore but today I finally spotted it at the High. Because of Steiglitz's and O'Keeffe's connection to John Marin, the book is displayed near the Marin exhibition catalogues (spectacular show, by the way).
I also wanted to help spread some Design Library news: the textile resource is scheduled to soon visit California with new acquisitions. Jacky Brown is headed to L.A. and the Bay area July 18 through 21. Contact the Library to schedule an appointment.
This isn't a summer re-run. I'm just quickly popping in this morning to direct your attention to a really fascinating post over at Treasure Hunt, and to compare and contrast a scientific ultraviolet photo of an Anatolian carpet taken during investigations at LACMA's Conservation Center (previously posted here) with the National Trust's stunning 3D X-Rays of furniture at Knole. Read all about the latter here.
Tomorrow I'll have my first opportunity to see John Marin's Watercolors: A Medium for Modernism (previously mentioned here) and will probably leave the High with a postcard or two. Ideally, I'd like to have an entire room with striped upholstered walls so I could tack up random found images wherever I pleased. At the moment, though, my plans simply involve recovering a chair seat with Ralph Lauren's hemp/cotton Cap Ferrat stripe. Like I said the other day, the casual fabric captures this vibe and even reminds me a little of the fringe-trimmed umbrellas seen toward the end of Chocolat.
The mix at top is a look back at some favorite examples of art and other pictures set against striped walls. For another great example of an upholstered backdrop, click here, and for striped wallpaper, check out The World of Interiors, July 2011.

For me, project season officially began yesterday. No tables this summer -- not enough space. Although, I've been reading about Lee Krasner's improvisational mosaic tables composed of shells, costume jewelry, glass, coins, pebbles and keys.
And I've been revisiting Steven Gambrel's custom, collage-like, marbled-paper-covered sawhorse desks from the Designer Visions Cinema Style apartment. (Last year, at the request of Town & Country, Gambrel imagined a 21st-century art-filled home for characters in the 1990s movie, Six Degrees of Separation -- art dealer Flan Kittredge and his wife, Ouisa.) Avoiding predictable sofas, Gambrel placed two large twin tables in the living room because he pictured the couple spending their time spreading out big books, reading, working and dining. If I had not finished my own table before I saw Gambrel's design, I would've been tempted to try layers of paper.
You can see full views of Gambrel's tables, along with his mammoth custom bulletin board, in the December 2010 issue of T & C, via the showhouse virtual tour, or at the designer's site in the press section. Visit Paper Mojo to see marbled options available this summer.
One of the great things about reading Gail Levin's book, Lee Krasner: A Biography, is that it presents design and art world rock stars -- women like Ray Eames, a fellow Hofmann student and lifelong friend of Krasner's -- before they were icons and names in our text books. Levin's mention of Charles and Ray Eames and their move to the West Coast, along with the High's current design exhibition, put me in the mood to revisit Handcrafted Modern: At Home with Mid-Century Designers (Rizzoli, 2010) written and photographed by Leslie Williamson.
If you've yet to flip through this book because you're assuming you've seen this territory before, you've had your fill of mid-century modern, or perhaps 20th-century design is not your favorite era, I suggest taking a peek. Interesting layers of color and form abound here.
Williamson herself once found Modernism -- as it was initially presented to her in school -- a bit pristine and inaccessible. This volume, in contrast, shows the very human side of modern design, right down to the bobby pins left on Ray Eames's bedside table.
Personal passions are definitely the core of the book. Using primarily natural light, Williamson captured on film fourteen private domains of architects and designers including Eva Zeisel, Jens Risom, Walter Gropius and George Nakashima, keeping the focus on their everyday lives. We see their books, the art and objects they collected, and their work spaces. Ray Eames, in particular, was an enthusiastic collector skilled at layering. For me, the book is all about the warmer, earthier aspects of modern. It's also terrific summer reading for the visually oriented because it's heavy on inspiring images accompanied simply by Williamson's brief essays. She says upfront that she is not a design scholar and describes herself instead as a fan. I'd add very informed fan with a fresh perspective.
A quick follow-up to last Sunday's post: another of Jayson Home & Garden's antique French chairs upholstered in African Kuba cloth. The woven raffia is rich and velvety but unfussy, so it makes an interesting counterpoint to the formal frame. This piece happens to be from Jayson's Flea, and there's a related special event coming up soon.
Apart from The Textile Museum, a great place to explore Kuba cloth is LACMA. In case you missed the video the first time, curator Sharon Takeda, head of LACMA's Costume and Textiles department, explains the aesthetic behind the woven material here.

But the chair is also a cousin to older, very chic and portable campaign pieces. Unfortunately I don't have an extra inch to spare for a new chair (even a folding one). If you have room, though, you can learn more about it here.
Whether City Issue's find conjures images of Colonial Brits or outdoor concerts in the U.S., I've got two related reminders: Birmingham Museum of Art's must-see summer exhibitions, Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present and Faces of India. The latter just opened and Rock debuts June 24. Click here for more on all the accompanying events.
Our textile of the day is an old Japanese hand-woven cotton from Sri, the Brooklyn-based gallery. In his recent post, dealer Stephen Szczepanek describes the floral cloth as having a "delicate intensity" similar to batik. It seems implausible, but it feels rich yet kind of "soft-spoken" to me, too. The 19th-century dyes used include indigo, an earthy bengara (Stephen explains that this is an iron-oxide-based dye) and a grey-ish black dye. I've read that the term bengara most likely relates to iron oxide originating in Bengal, India. See more and read all about the Japanese piece here.
As promised, one of the latest in the V & A's very affordable and beach bag-friendly series of pattern books, Spitalfields Silks by Moira Thunder, is now available in the U.S. This edition explores the lively, very British, and still-fresh-looking silk textiles woven during the 18th century in Spitalfields, London. Designers may play around with the museum's patterns included on the accompanying CD.
Thunder will offer a free Spitalfields Silks talk and tour at the museum on Wednesday, July 6. Click here for details.
Shifting to far more rustic fabric, I've been thinking a lot about stripes again. In an attempt to translate the vibe of Robert Capa's famous photograph into a room, I just bought a few yards of Ralph Lauren's hemp/cotton Cap Ferrat stripe, and I'm thinking about his Umbrella Fringe too.
Flipping through Caroline Clifton-Mogg's French Country Living, I came across more wonderful stripes and a new contender for best outdoor space (in my head it's always Jennifer Garner's garden, outfitted by Peter Dunham and photographed by Patrick Demarchelier for Vogue Living). If you're looking for vintage French stripes, try Elizabeth Baer or Vintage Weave.
When I come across them, I save examples of pictures -- framed or unframed, loose sketches, paintings or photographs -- set against patterned walls. This weekend I finally added to my files another one: last month's Matisse-inspired, Peter Dunham-designed vignette for Legends of La Cienega, the special benefit that raised over $24,000 for The Art of Elysium. This nonprofit group harnesses the talents of working musicians, artists, and actors to provide creative programming for kids coping with serious medical conditions.
Many of you already know that, in keeping with Elysium's spirit, a host of acclaimed L.A.-based designers created displays -- blissful spaces -- inspired by their favorite artists. With Dunham's own new African-inspired textiles in the mix, I had no trouble seeing his Matisse connection.
Seems like I just posted this image with news of the major African textiles exhibitions happening in 2011. But that was around New Year's Day.
Weaving Abstraction: Kuba Textiles and the Woven Art of Central Africa opens in a few months (mid-October) at The Textile Museum, kicking off with the Washington, D.C. institution's annual weekend symposium. If you are an undergraduate or graduate student hoping to attend, ten scholarships are available. The deadline is right around the corner -- July 1, 2011. Click here for details.
BTW: Matisse is headed to Atlanta this fall (same week, actually) with the High's' next big show, Picasso to Warhol, October 15, 2011 - April 29, 2012.

... and if you look past the obvious, sometimes you find something even more interesting.
An example that pops into my mind is the way a very plain, sheer white linen curtain or a humble bamboo roller shade might play with light more beautifully than an over-the-top taffeta creation. I'm also reminded of antique and vintage textile maven Elizabeth Baer's find: top quality surplus Flemish linen sleeping bag liners. She recently salvaged a bounty and sells them to decorators who reinterpret them in different ways. In this case, their original purpose was vital. Still, as the liners weren't being used, recognizing their visual appeal and recycling seems inspired.
On a related note, I've been savoring a sneak peek at the updated edition of Francoise de Bonneville's The Book of Fine Linen, scheduled to be released in the fall. I can't say much until then but it's wonderfully comprehensive, offering a very detailed history of household textiles. Recently we've been talking about lace; well, the book's up-close views of lace, crochet, and of course embroidery are exquisite. In addition to the photographs, art history fans will appreciate the use of old paintings. Sumptuous visual fare. Stay tuned for more.
Since I began the Artists' Palettes series back in 2009, we've seen many different interpretations of the traditional paint-splattered boards. Today, Terry Rosen, an illustrator, textile/surface designer and fine artist is sharing with us her "paper palettes" and passion for the medium.
But more recently, Terry has developed a serious affinity for collage.
In "The Graduate" when someone advised, 'Plastics, Ben,' it was so sage. Most wrappers, labels, stickers are now plastic. Paper is rare street detritus, so finding it is like finding an authentic treasure. Because of its materiality, paper decays, mutates, discolors, fades. Abandoned and windswept paper has its own mottled, organic beauty. Perhaps I identify with it, or find a nobility in rescuing orphans of commerce.
Plucked from urban landscapes, my latest collages are street-to-table. I continue to prefer it to making collages digitally, which is much more forgiving, immediate and infinitely abundant. The search for the pieces on the internet is similarly serendipitous, but lacks the hunt with its smells, dirt, tactility, physical context and reward.
Like my idols Kurt Schwitters and John Evans, I am inspired by paper that is transactional in nature -- ticket stubs, airport claims, raffles, coat checks -- or institutional: membership stickers, temp ID cards. Each location yields different shards, revealing the anthropology of the site. I'm also attracted to pieces that are illustrative, or have unusual type treatments like foreign mint wrappers. The papers I save are artifacts of contemporary culture, and memories of my own experience. The collages I make are stories of time and place.
Sometimes the paper for me is the paint, and my pieces become color studies. The process of taking what is scattered carefree on streets to make something with an order, meaning and beauty is the collage. The paper fragments are tiles I find to complete tessellations. Their textures, missing letters, partial imagery are mysterious—waiting to have another context, a puzzle solved over time.
Initially, I made collages to then be able to draw them, like this piece. Composed of all the tickets from cultural events I had attended, I made a collage and then drew and painted it with watercolor. The collage became a textile design. Lately, using hybrid technologies, I have been building collages, photographing them and printing them, sometimes directly onto fabric.
Collecting and working with paper is legacy, or congenital. My father kept all kinds of texts, papers, note pads, matchbooks, x-ray paper. He taught me to have a reverence for paper as he thought all materials were precious. As a child, I made crayon drawings on the orange Kodak x-ray paper he brought home, and unwrapped presents slowly, carefully slicing the conjoined edges with a knife to be able to savor the decorated paper. Now my collections of paper are pasted or floating in notebooks, in little piles on my table or in boxes.
