The main auditorium of the Royal Opera House.
The Royal Opera House, the United Kingdom's most important performing arts venue, is located in London's Covent Garden district. The large building, which has been rebuilt twice, and is often referred to as simply "Covent Garden," is the home of The Royal Opera, The Royal Ballet, and the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House. The history of the Royal Opera House has roots that reach back nearly three hundred years, to 1728, and for quite some time, was one of only two theaters in London that were licensed in presenting the spoken word in the city. What began as primarily a center for drama and plays has, over time, progressed into one of the foremost opera houses in the world. The Royal Opera House has proven its value to London society through a long history of popular performances, destructive fires and redevelopment. As a performing arts venue, the hall serves an important role in providing the area with the chance to experience the beauty of the arts, with the ability to enrich and renew people's lives and expand their horizons.

The current Royal Opera House is the third theater built on the Covent Garden site. Its history begins with John Rich, an actor and manager at Lincoln's Inn Fields, in 1728. The original theater was opened in 1732.[1] It was destroyed by fire several times, and rebuilt. From 1946, when it reopened as a performance venue after a short stint as a dance hall during World War II, it became the United Kingdom's first permanent home for opera and ballet. In the nearly three centuries of its history, the Royal Opera House has become one of the most modern and sophisticated—and revered—Opera houses on the European continent. The facade, foyer and auditorium date from 1858, but almost every other element of the present complex dates from an extensive reconstruction in the 1990s. The Royal Opera House seats 2,268 people, with about 550 on the orchestra level, and four tiers of boxes and balconies including the amphitheater gallery on the top level. With a proscenium 12.20 m wide and 14.80 m high, the venue is home to the Royal Opera (previously known as the Convent Garden Opera Company) and Royal Ballet (previously known as Sadler's Wells Ballet).[1]

The modern Royal Opera House also boasts two additional performance spaces. A mid-scale public theater, the 400-seat Linbury Studio Theatre is perfect for chamber opera, experimental dance, or education activities. The Clore Studio Upstairs is a Royal Ballet studio that can hold an audience of more than 180, for intimate events and performances, in a laboratory-style experimental setting.[2]
Royal Opera
The Royal Opera was established in London, in 1945, under the name of Convent Garden Company Opera. In 1968, the Queen granted the right to rename the company the Royal Opera, in recognition of the quality of performance the young company had attained in its first decades. Works of the opera are generally performed in their original language, with international soloists. Past music directors include Karl Rankl (1945-51), Rafael Kubelík, George Solti, Colin Davis, and Bernard Haitink (1987-2002). From 2002, Antonio Pappano took the post of music director, with Elaine Padmore as Opera Director.
Royal Ballet

The Royal Ballet was established in 1931, by Ninette de Valouis and Lilian Baylis, under the name Vic-Wells Ballet. In the 1940s, after its move to Convent Garden, the name was changed to the Sadler's Wells Ballet. In 1956, the company received a royal charter and was renamed the Royal Ballet. Choreographers such as Frederick Ashton and dancers such as Rudolf Nureyev have been associated with the company, whose members have also included Alicia Markova, Margot Fonteyn, and Robert Helpmann.
Orchestra of the Royal Opera House
The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House was founded as the Convent Garden Orchestra when the theater reopened in 1946 after World War II. Through the years, the ranks of the orchestra have included a number of top musicians, and it has been acclaimed by critics and audiences alike. The Orchestra has also won many awards, including the 1995 and 1998 Evening Standard Opera Award for Outstanding Artistic Achievement, and the 1999 Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Opera. In addition to performing for performances of the Royal Opera and the Royal Ballet, the Orchestra also performs on its own. Both the Orchestra and the Soloists play an active role in the education work of the Royal Opera House.[3]
The Davenant Patent

The foundation of the Theatre Royal, Covent Garden lies in the letters patent awarded by Charles II to Sir William Davenant in 1660, allowing Davenant to operate one of only two patent theater companies in London, along with the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. The letters gave these two theaters the exclusive rights to present spoken drama in London.
During the first hundred years of Covent Garden's history, the theater was primarily a playhouse. Despite the frequent exchanges of artists and scripts between the Covent Garden and Drury Lane companies, competition was intense, with the two theaters often presenting the same plays at the same time. The letters patent of the Covent Garden Theatre remained in the possession of the Opera House until shortly after the First World War, when the document was sold to an American university library.
The first theater
A picture of the first theater drawn shortly before it burned down in 1808.
In 1728, John Rich, actor-manager of the Duke's Company at Lincoln's Inn Fields Theatre, commissioned The Beggar's Opera from John Gay. The success of this venture provided him with the capital to build the Theatre Royal (designed by Edward Shepherd) at the site of an ancient convent garden, part of which had been developed by Inigo Jones in the 1630s, with a piazza and church. At its opening on December 7, 1732, Rich was carried by his actors in processional triumph into the theater for its opening production of William Congreve's The Way of the World. Rich introduced pantomime to the repertoire, himself performing (under the stage name John Lun, as Harlequin).[4]
In 1734, Covent Garden presented its first ballet, Pygmalion. Marie Sallé discarded tradition and her corset and danced in diaphanous robes.[5] George Frideric Handel was named musical director of the company, at Lincoln's Inn Fields, in 1719, but his first season of opera, at Covent Garden, was not presented until much later, in 1735. His first opera was Il pastor fido followed by Ariodante (1735), the première of Alcina, and Atalanta the following year. There was a royal performance of the Messiah in 1743, which was a success and began a tradition of Lenten oratorio performances. From 1735 until his death in 1759, he gave regular seasons there, and many of his operas and oratorios were written for Covent Garden or had their first London performances there. He bequeathed his organ to John Rich, and it was placed in a prominent position on the stage, but was among many valuable items lost in the fire that destroyed the theater in 1808.
In 1775, Richard Brinsley Sheridan's The Duenna premièred at Covent Garden.
The second theater

Rebuilding after the 1808 fire began in December of the same year, and the second Theatre Royal, Covent Garden (designed by Robert Smirke) opened about a year later, on September 18, 1809, with a performance of Macbeth followed by a musical entertainment called The Quaker. The actor-manager John Philip Kemble, raised seat prices to help recoup the cost of rebuilding, but the move was so unpopular that audiences disrupted performances by beating sticks, hissing, booing, and dancing. The Old Price Riots lasted over two months, and the management was finally forced to accede to the audience's demands.[6]
Joseph Grimaldi, as clown (contemporary print)
During this time, entertainments were varied; opera and ballet were presented, but not exclusively. Kemble engaged a variety of acts, including the child performer Master Betty. Many famous actors of the day appeared at the theater, including the tragedienne Sarah Siddons, the Shakespearean actors William Charles Macready, Edmund Kean and his son Charles. On March 25, 1833, Edmund Kean collapsed on stage while playing Othello, and died two months later.[7] In 1806, the pantomime clown Joseph Grimaldi (The Garrick of Clowns) had performed his greatest success in Harlequin and Mother Goose; or the Golden Egg at Covent Garden, and this was subsequently revived, at the new theater. Grimaldi was an innovator: His performance as Joey introduced the clown to the world, building on the existing role of Harlequin derived from the Commedia dell'arte. His father had been ballet-master at Drury Lane, and his physical comedy, his ability to invent visual tricks and buffoonery, and his ability to poke fun at the audience were extraordinary.[8]
Early pantomimes were performed as mimes accompanied by music, but as Music hall became popular, Grimaldi introduced the pantomime dame to the theater and was responsible for the tradition of audience singing. By 1821, dance and clowning had taken such a physical toll on Grimaldi that he could barely walk, and he retired from the theatre.[9] By 1828, he was penniless, and Covent Garden held a benefit concert for him.
In 1817, bare flame gaslight had replaced the former candles and oil lamps that lighted the Covent Garden stage. This was an improvement, but in 1837, Macready went a step further, employing limelight in the theater for the first time, during a performance of the pantomime, Peeping Tom of Coventry. Limelight used a block of quicklime heated by an oxygen and hydrogen flame. This allowed the use of spotlights to highlight performers on the stage.[10]
The Theatre Royal, Covent Garden in the 1820s
The Theatres Act 1843 broke the patent theatres' monopoly of drama. At that time, Her Majesty's Theatre in the Haymarket was the main center of ballet and opera but after a dispute with the management in 1846, Michael Costa, conductor at Her Majesty's, transferred his allegiance to Covent Garden, bringing most of the company with him. The auditorium was completely remodeled and the theater reopened as the Royal Italian Opera on April 6, 1847, with a performance of Rossini's Semiramide.[11]
In 1852, Louis Antoine Jullien, the eccentric French conductor and composer of light music, presented an opera of his own composition, Pietro il Grande. Five performances were given of the 'spectacular', including live horses on the stage and very loud music. Critics considered it a complete failure and Jullien was ruined and fled to America.[12]
The third theatre

On March 5, 1856, the theater was again destroyed by fire. Work on the third theater, designed by Edward Middleton Barry, started in 1857, and the new building, which still remains as the nucleus of the present theater, opened on May 15, 1858, with a performance of Meyerbeer's Les Huguenots.
The Royal English Opera company under the management of Louisa Pyne and William Harrison, made their last performance at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane on December 11, 1858, and took up residence at the Covent Garden theater on December 20, 1858, with a performance of Michael Balfe's Satanella. The theater became the Royal Opera House (ROH) in 1892, and the number of French and German works in the repertory increased. Until 1864, the opera presented winter and summer seasons of opera and ballet, and the venue was also used for pantomime, recitals, and political meetings. During the First World War, the theater was requisitioned by the Ministry of Works for use as a furniture repository.
From 1934 to 1936, Geoffrey Toye was Managing Director, working alongside the Artistic Director, Sir Thomas Beecham. Despite early successes, Toye and Beecham eventually had a falling out and Toye resigned.[13] During the Second World War, the ROH became a dance hall. There was a possibility that it would remain so after the war but, following lengthy negotiations, the music publishers Boosey & Hawkes acquired the lease of the building. David Webster was appointed General Administrator, and Sadler's Wells Ballet was invited to become the resident ballet company. The newly created Covent Garden Opera Trust laid out plans "to establish Covent Garden as the national center of opera and ballet, employing British artists in all departments, wherever that is consistent with the maintenance of the best possible standards."[14]
The Royal Opera House reopened on February 20, 1946, with a performance of The Sleeping Beauty in an extravagant new production designed by Oliver Messel. Webster, with his music director Karl Rankl, immediately began to build a resident company. In December 1946, they shared their first production, Purcell's The Fairy-Queen, with the ballet company. On January 14, 1947, the Covent Garden Opera Company gave its first performance of Bizet's Carmen.
1990s reconstruction to the present
Several renovations had taken place to parts of the house in the 1960s, including improvements to the amphitheater and an extension in the rear, but the theater clearly needed a major overhaul. In 1975 the Labour government gave land adjacent to the Royal Opera House for a long-overdue modernization, refurbishment and extension. By 1995, sufficient funds had been raised to enable the company to embark upon a major reconstruction of the building by Carillion,[15] which took place between 1996 and 2000, under the chairmanship of Sir Angus Stirling. This involved the demolition of almost the whole site including several adjacent buildings to make room for a major increase in the size of the complex. The auditorium itself remained, but well over half of the complex is new.

The design team was led by Jeremy Dixon and Ed Jones of Dixon Jones BDP as architects. The acoustic designers were Rob Harris and Jeremy Newton of Arup Acoustics. The building engineer was Arup.
The new building has the same traditional horseshoe-shaped auditorium as before, but with greatly improved technical, rehearsal, office and educational facilities, a new studio theater called the Linbury Theatre, and much more public space. The inclusion of the adjacent old Floral Hall, long a part of the old Covent Garden Market but in general disrepair for many years, into the actual opera house created a new and extensive public gathering place. The venue now has a claim as the most modern theater facility in Europe.
Surtitles, projected onto a screen above the proscenium, are used for all opera performances. Also, the electronic libretto system provides translations onto small video screens for some seats, and additional monitors and screens are to be introduced to other parts of the house.
Not only does the Royal Opera House put on performances by the Royal Opera and Royal Ballet in the evening, but since 1999 has also, opened its doors to the public during the day. When once only ticket holders could enter the theater—and even then, just before a performance—now thousands of visitors from all over the world are allowed to tour the historic facility.[2] Guests are able to enjoy lunch, a gift shop, and exhibitions.

How Wonder Woman 1984's Practical Effects Set it Apart
Going again to Themyscira is one of essentially the most anticipated points of Wonder Woman 1984. For many followers, the Amazons have been the spotlight of the unique movie and an all-Amazon film can't come quickly sufficient. The bodily prowess and the pure pleasure of seeing so many ladies not solely in fight, however partaking in combat choreography that's developed round their bodily attributes/presents/options, is a uncommon and fantastic factor. The ensuing actions sequences have been not like something on display screen earlier than: extremely stylized but clearly efficient.
Heading into WW84, director Patty Jenkins and her staff (which now contains Gal Gadot as a producer) had a repute to uphold, after which some.
"There was just no way we're going to take any shortcuts," Gadot stated throughout a WW1984 press convention. "And we're just going to raise the bar and give everything we have because we knew people were so invested with the character and cared so much about her."
One of the most important alternatives for motion on an epic scale is the so-called Amazon Olympics, an prolonged opening sequence from Diana's childhood, the place she competed in opposition to some of Themyscira's finest in a triathlon of types involving an impediment course excessive within the air, swimming, and archery on horseback. Lilly Aspell returns to play younger Diana who's now 10 years previous. She did a minimum of 5 months of coaching to run the impediment course, which she really runs by herself. Some of the extra fantastical parts are enhanced with inexperienced display screen and CGI for her security, however all of the working, leaping, climbing, and swimming is Lilly herself.
If the Amazons have been the excessive level of the primary film, the unequivocal low level was the ultimate combat within the third act, a messy overlong CGI spectacle that felt out of step with the spirit of the nice and cozy, character-driven film audiences had fallen in love with up till that time. While nobody talked about it by title in interviews, it's not onerous to think about that's what Jenkins is eager to keep away from when she talks about avoiding CGI motion – or when Chris Pine refers to "cataclysmic computer graphics explosion nonsense."
As star Gal Gadot put it: "Patty really made a point about wanting to have a minimum amount of CGI in our movies. So most of the stuff that you're going to see is real people doing the real thing. Whether it's us or the stunt people, it's real people. So it took much longer. You have to prep and to rehearse much longer."
Gadot calls WW84 "the hardest movie I ever got to shoot by far" but in addition says it was price it.
"[The first movie] was received in such an amazing way that there was just no way we're going to take any shortcuts. And we're just going to raise the bar and give everything we have because we knew people were so invested with the character and cared so much about her," stated Gadot. "When you see it in the movie … you can just tell that it's the real deal. You can see by the face expressions that it's real. You can see the weight and the movement and the speed."
Practical results have main benefits, and administrators like George Miller and David Leitch, who directed feminine starring motion motion pictures Mad Max: Fury Road and Atomic Blonde, respectively, are massive followers. But there are disadvantages as nicely.
"The hardest parts were just how demanding the shoots were and how physical it was, because it was very important for Patty that we do minimum amount of CGI," Gadot instructed Den of Geek and different retailers throughout a latest press occasion "So most of the stuff that you see—the running on Penn Avenue, the Amazon sequence, the fight with Cheetah—most of it, it's real people doing it for real. And for the obvious reasons, it took longer to shoot and it's very tiring on your body. But then you see the result and I was so satisfied with it cause I was like, 'Oh my God, you can see the difference. You can tell the difference between real action to CGI action. You can see it in the way that we move, that we hold, our faces, our bodies.' So that was the hardest part. The rest of it, honestly, Wonder Woman feels like a second home for me."
There's an honest quantity of wire work within the movie which, as Gadot identified, isn't precisely new a lot as one thing that's fallen a bit out of favor with the rise of CGI.
As followers of the comics know, and the trailer has alluded to, Diana and Barbara have a relationship of types earlier than Cheetah enters the image. Gadot, Jenkins, and Wiig mentioned the distinctive nature of their climactic altercation at a press convention for WW84.
"And I think Gal and I talking about this from the very start," recalls Jenkins, "saying, 'However they would fight, it would be completely different. And they're friends.' Right? Or at least they have this friendship in the past. It's not about punching in the face … They're both trying to literally get the other one under control. … So, narratively, it was fascinating, and then how it would work spatially was fascinating, and then executing it was long and laborious and wild."
"I don't think I've ever seen anything like this before," Gadot says. "It's not like when you see women try to fight like men. No, we're females, our bodies are different, the way we move is different and this is how we do it. And just to see it, it was so great."
Each half of the set was fastidiously designed across the wants of the combat choreography. Eagle-eyed viewers would possibly decide up on a railing or two that play key roles in how the performers convey the motion to life.
"We designed what we wanted something to feel like and look like and what the moves were. And then we had to build. There was no stage big enough in the world so we had to build the stage," Jenkins says. "And then we had to build all those things. And then we have Cirque du Soleil performers practicing them and showing us what things are going to look like. And then these guys have to end up doing it. And so it was incredible, but it was fun to really aspire."
Of course many followers are merely nervous how Cheetah herself will look. As Cinema Blend helpfully factors out, whereas Cats and WW84 have been made across the similar time (and filmed in adjoining studios) Kristen Wiig appears to be like considerably higher than the solid of that pleasant little monstrosity.
"Finding the right blend of prosthetics and CG to make that transformation was… it took a ton of (research and development)," Jenkins instructed Cinema Blend. "It started from the day I started it, and we didn't complete it until the day we finished. It was so complex trying to figure how to pull off that character. I would lose so much sleep over it. Honestly. Because I was like, it could go so wrong. The first thing I did when I got on to the movie was that they said, 'We can do this all CG. We can put hair on people.' And I was like, 'Show me the best example of that.' And I saw it, and I said, 'That's not good enough. If that's where our technology is, that is not good enough.' … Cats was shooting on the stage next to us, and I knew that they were going through the same thing. And then I heard that they were just going to do it in CG. And I was like, 'I hope it works out for you!' But I've never been so thankful for the process I went through."
It's price noting that whereas they have been filmed on the similar time, WW84 is popping out a full 12 months after Cats. The VFX artists who labored on Cats have been famously mistreated, rushed to place out an inferior product with a purpose to make monetary and awards present deadlines (the latter of which they missed) after which many have been laid off and their work publicly derided, an all-too-common prevalence within the trade. Nevertheless, Jenkins as soon as extra opted for sensible results as a lot as attainable, and held off on incorporating CGI till completely essential.
"I didn't want Kristen's face to become some animated bizarreness. So then we ended up doing tons of prosthetics. Real work. And we only took over certain parts of her body. The rest of it is prosthetics."
Perhaps most significantly, the motion in WW84 is an extension of characterization and strikes the plot ahead—one of the most important benefits of utilizing sensible results and a cause actors typically cite once they insist on doing as many of their very own stunts as attainable. The opening sequence in Themyscira illustrates a lesson that formed who Diana is as an individual. Her relationship with Barbara informs her techniques in battle. Her stance on violence and battle within the first movie—a tough however welcome one for the style—is refined right here, and straight impacts how she fights.
Wonder Woman isn't only a demi-goddess who punches her method to victory—how, who, and when she fights issues, each behind the scenes and throughout the story.

Republicans Are In a Fantasy Land About Donald Trump
Donald Trump isn't going away, and both parties need to understand the reality of that.
"Top republicans are currently in meetings to discuss Donald Trump's future role in Republican Party leadership and whether or not he has one," say people familiar with the matter, according to corporate media outlets who may or may not be exaggerating the level of Republican defection for dramatic purposes.
The ads aren't going to click themselves, after all.
Sensationalistic journalism aside, top Republicans are likely discussing this very question, even as they lick their wounds after a second impeachment trial even more contentious than the first.
What role will Donald Trump play in the Republican Party, going forward?
Republican voters, provided they have even deigned to watch the latest impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump and are still listening to anything Republicans in national leadership have to say about the matter, might have noticed something odd about these musings regarding who will lead the party.
Republicans in leadership don't choose who leads the Republican Party ticket. Republican voters do that.
Party leadership, no matter how senior, will not get to choose who the Republican Party standard bearer will be in 2024.
They certainly didn't get to choose in 2016.
If Republican Party leadership, and the GOP's old guard, had been able to choose, Jeb Bush would have been elected president in 2016. He was the party favorite, seen by leadership as the heir apparent to the George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush presidencies. Jeb Bush, son of one president and brother to another, seemed to Republican leadership the obvious choice.
Only a funny thing happened on the way to the coronation of Jeb Bush: Republican voters overwhelmingly, and against nearly everyone in Republican Party leadership, voted for an outsider, someone with no political experience whatsoever. Someone who had been a longtime New York City Democrat.
Most importantly- Republican primary voters chose a candidate who wasn't approved by the Republican Party establishment in any way. In fact, Republican voters chose someone they knew most people in the upper echelons of the Republican Party couldn't stand. They chose someone who had insulted incumbent Senators and Representatives repeatedly and publicly. They chose someone antithetical to a political legacy candidate groomed from childhood to run for president like Jeb Bush.
Most irritating of all to the political elite of both parties, Republican voters chose someone willing to say- and loudly- that the political elite hadn't really been doing all that great of a job over the last decades.
The last few decades have been an era of higher taxes, endless wars, and the wholesale export of American manufacturing jobs to places with cheaper labor. These things are very irritating to the working class, and well-nigh unbearable for the working poor in this country.
From both sides of the political aisle, the working class has noticed that exporting American manufacturing jobs to places with lower labor standards and fewer environmental regulations was not a moral course of action.
It isn't better for people in the societies where U.S. cheap labor has meant exploitative labor practices, extremely low compensation, and environmental devastation. The practice hasn't created a more equal or more equitable world, it hasn't better distributed wealth to emerging nations. If anything, it has done the opposite. Unscrupulous companies- ironically many of the same companies responsible for some of the social-consciousness ad campaigns that are becoming so popular- have merely gone from extremely to obscenely wealthy.
There is a reason it is called virtue signaling; it is mere signaling. Gillette doesn't really care about toxic masculinity; it only cares that you do. Procter & Gamble, Gillette's parent company, doesn't care about it either. If P&G did care about toxicity, it wouldn't be the world's number one producer of single use plastics.
Outsourcing America's manufacturing jobs, instead of helping emerging nations, has arrested the development of these nations, trapping them for decades in a post-industrial, pre-regulatory nightmare for the world's working poor. It took a World War for the wealthy countries of Europe, like Great Britain, to awaken to the Dickensonian nightmare of the working class.
The Great War was when they noticed how poor everyone was.
When governments needed soldiers, authorities discovered to their horror that a large percentage of the poorer classes were simply too ill, too under-fed, too uneducated, and too poverty-stricken to be of any use to the military.
It was a gruesome discovery any walk through the worst parts of London could've hastened.
In retrospect, it seems so obvious: What kinds of companies and industries are most likely to flourish in a post-industrial environment with no labor or environmental standards?
The question, and its answer, would have been everywhere, from the starving orphans on the street, to the dying workers in the poorhouse, to the rivers of industrial filth being dumped openly into shared community waterways.
These same injustices exist in emerging nations today. In places like Malaysia, they don't want our plastic recyclables anymore, no matter how much the U.S. offers to pay. Plastics are clogging their rivers. Ghana probably doesn't want any more of our old electronic junk, either. The world's largest tech dump hasn't created a thriving economy; there is no farming, no industry- just garbage.
Branding these devastating policies something clever, like "globalization", something that appeals to progressive elites, doesn't make them any more palatable in the places where they have wrecked such havoc.
Including in the gutted American manufacturing industry.
These misguided policies didn't just weaken American manufacturing; they weakened the unions, too. They weakened the collective bargaining rights and wage earning potential for millions of workers, afraid if they push for more equitable compensation, their jobs will be shipped somewhere cheaper, where workers don't have to be paid as much, if at all, because there are no unions. No worker's compensation, no liability for on-the-job injuries, no fuss about unsafe working conditions.
Instead, extremely wealthy companies and people have gotten wealthier and members of the working class, be they Republican or Democrat, hadn't seen substantial wage gains or increases in household income in over a decade- until right before COVID-19 hit.
Republicans, and Democrats, need to stop thinking of Donald Trump as the problem and start addressing the real issue: The 75 million-plus people who voted for him, and probably would do so again, or Republican and Democratic leaders wouldn't be so worried about it.
Republicans shouldn't be telling their voters who the next leader of the Republican Party will be. Leadership Republican elected officials- past, present, and future- should be listening.
By listening to the concerns of Republican Party voters, as well as the state and local Republicans who live and work in red districts, Republican Party leadership will have a much better chance at moving the party toward the candidate of their choice.
Donald Trump isn't going away, and both parties need to understand the reality of that. As long as there are still 75 million people the in U.S. who want to hear what he has to say, there will be someone- somewhere- willing to supply them with the opportunity. Again, ads have to be clicked.
Even if Donald Trump retired from public life tomorrow, nature abhors a vacuum. The space he occupied for the voters who supported him won't stay vacant for long.

Chess is a game played on a square board divided into 64 squares, with 32 chess pieces equally divided into groups of white and black. This game is played by two people.
During the game, players must move their chess pieces according to the rules, while removing the opposite chess pieces from the game board whenever possible, commonly called "eating". The victory of a player is determined by the success of the so-called 'checkmate', ie the position when the opposing king can not dodge to be "eaten".

Taking a proactive approach to equity is important, and giving girls more opportunities to explore their dreams of engineering is always a worthy cause.
Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day (Girl Day) on February 21, 2019, helps focus a growing movement to inspire girls' futures, so they learn they have a place in engineering a better world. In just one day you can make a difference by sharing your knowledge, experience, and some fun! Give girls the chance to think like an engineer and you'll be amazed at what you learn!
When a girl gets involved with FIRST, she's acquiring experience and skills that will prepare her as a young woman to glean even more wisdom from role models, professional mentors, and fellow robotics team participants throughout the build and competitive seasons.
One look at the FIRST Impact document tells a riveting story of how girls and young women who participate in FIRST programs excel in the STEM fields. When it comes to statewide participation, we see 33% of teams made up of girls and young women. When we dig even deeper, some areas of the state like the Rio Grande Valley have up to 40% female participation.
These numbers are impressive when compared with the national average, but we're not satisfied with just beating the national average. We, along with our Partners, mentors, educators, volunteers, city, and state leadership continue the work of reaching even more future women in STEM.
This is part two of a three-part series on engineering. Part three will dive into the growing need for engineers in the workforce. Part one can be found here.


A 40-year-old woman was bitten on the arm by what wildlife officials think was a nearly 11-foot alligator earlier this month in Seminole County.
The bite occurred at about 2:30 p.m. while the woman was wading in the water in the Little Big Econ River in the Chuluota area of Seminole County, near Oviedo. The woman was able to free herself from the alligator and was taken to Central Florida Regional Hospital in Sanford.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission trapped and caught a nearly 11-foot alligator they think was the one that bit the woman, because it was still in the area where the attack happened.
It seems that we have read a lot about alligator attacks in Florida in the news recently. Golf courses, hotels, parks, businesses, apartment complexes, and owners of residential properties that border pools, ponds, lakes, streams, or rivers in Florida should know that alligators could inhabit these bodies of water. They are responsible for protecting the property and for appropriately warning visitors of any potential hazards. Failure to do so is considered negligence. Victims of a gator attack, could be entitled to recover monetary damages from the property owner, depending on the circumstances.
If you or someone you love has suffered from an alligator attack, you may be able to file a personal injury or wrongful death claim under Florida law. Our Seminole County Injury Lawyers at Whittel & Melton can help you understand your rights after such an incident. Call us today at 866-608-5529 or contact us online for a free consultation.

Home Lifestyle Art Market Surpassed Pre-Pandemic Levels In 2021 With $65 Billion In Sales, Report Says
Art Market Surpassed Pre-Pandemic Levels In 2021 With $65 Billion In Sales, Report Says
Art sales rose 29% last year to $65.1 billion, according to a report from Art Basel and UBS released Tuesday, in a strong recovery from pandemic doldrums driven by a surge in public auctions and online sales.
An employee holds 'The Auction' by British artist L.S. Lowry at Sotheby's auction house in central … [+] London on October 19, 2021.
The total, which includes art and antique sales by auction houses and dealers, also tops the $64.1 billion in sales UBS and Art Basel estimated for 2019 in their annual report.
Public auction sales jumped 47% to $26.3 billion in 2021 as in-person auctions paired with online live streams "were among the most successful," according to the report.
Despite more in-person events last year, online sales rose 7% to $13.3 billion, accounting for 20% of the total market (that share is 5 percentage points less than in 2020, when online auctions largely replaced live events, but is still more than double the 9% recorded in 2019, the report noted).
Signs of revived market confidence included the return of more notable work to auction, the report says, including the landmark $676 million sale of the first half of the Macklowe collection – which is on track to break the record for the biggest public sale of an art trove – a handful of rare paintings by Jean Michel-Basquiat and "Portrait of a Young Man Holding a Roundel" by Old Master Sandro Botticelli.
Gallery workers display an artwork titled 'Femme assise près d'une fenêtre (Marie-Thérèse)' by … [+] Spanish painter Pablo Picasso during a photocall at Christies auction house in central London on April 22, 2021.
Big Number
$103.4 million. That was the price for the most expensive painting sold at auction last year, Pablo Picasso's "Femme Assise près d'une Fenêtre (Marie-Thérèse) (1932)." The sale was announced in April 2021 was widely seen as a test to gauge the market after the previous year's slump. The winning bid was nearly double the painting's estimate.
A preview of Sandro Botticelli's "Young Man Holding a Roundel" at Sotheby's on January 22, 2021 in … [+] New York City.
The annual Art Basel and UBS report this year expanded from the standard territory of auction houses and dealers to include nonfungible tokens. NFTs exploded in popularity last year, with sales of the digital collectibles brokered by Christie's and Sotheby's, albeit in "limited values so far," according to the report. Christie's NFT sales netted $150 million – including a record $69.3 million for a Beeple work– while Sotheby's reached $80 million..External sales of art and collectible-related NFTs using ether, flow and ronin blockchains grew to a staggering $11.1 billion in 2021 from just $4.6 million in 2019, according to the report, which used data from NonFungible.com.
A painting by Jean-Michel Basquiat entitled ' the Guit of Gold Teeth' is displayed at Christie's … [+] auction house in New York on October 29, 2021.
Whether the strong growth continues this year. Last week, Christie's announced the auction of a rare Andy Warhol print of Marilyn Monroe with a $200 million estimate, which the auction house said was the highest yet for any artwork. Leonardo da Vinci's "Salvador Mundi" fetched a record $450 million in 2017 after receiving a pre-sale estimate of about $100 million. Another major auction on the horizon is the second half of the Macklowe collection sale, slated to be held in May.

Springtime is a good time to make many important changes in your house and the rooms. Many men and females usually begin the redecoration from the kitchen because they are afraid of mess and they want to do the redecoration fast.
Growing percentage of people at present tend to be interested in making their house look very attractive so that it would make them feel inspired to work more appropriately as well as acquire more satisfaction from little things. It is connected with the fact that despite our work, our house is the place we spend most of our time in.
More and more people these days are considered to be interested in cooperation with an expert in the field of interior design. It is proved by the fact that due to consulting our moves with such a professionalist we can be much more likely to decide for similar set for interior side of our house. It is proved by the fact that generally people, especially those, who don't have sufficient experience, mostly choose inappropriately. As a result, we are recommended to remember that cooperation with somebody, who knows the market and has a natural ability to combine different elements into well-looking set.

GLOBAL HEALTHCARE & DISASTER PREPAREDNESS LEADERS WARN OF LACK OF PREPARDNESS FOR FUTURE PANDEMIC OUTBREAKS
Home › News › GLOBAL HEALTHCARE & DISASTER PREPAREDNESS LEADERS WARN OF LACK OF PREPARDNESS FOR FUTURE PANDEMIC OUTBREAKS
Belton, SC (February 10, 2021) -The World Health Organization (WHO) warned on December 28, 2020, that the current Covid-19 pandemic was, "not necessarily the big one"1 The WHO went further to urge the world to get, "serious" about preparedness. "This is a wakeup call", Dr. Michael J. Ryan, Executive
Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program said at the December 28 press conference. Dr. Ryan further stated, "We need to get ready for something that may even be more serious in the future. This Pandemic has been very severe. It has spread around the world extremely quickly and it has affected every corner of this planet, but this is not necessarily the big one." 2 Scores of other experts have expressed serious concerns about the lack of preparedness. Covid-19 disease is caused by a coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. This type of coronavirus has not been seen before.3 Simply stated Covid-19 is potentially deadly. Keep in mind two new strains of the virus have merged in the United Kingdom and South Africa that appear to be more infectious than others. The New York Post reported, the new UK virus may be up to 70 percent more transmissible than the earlier version of Covid-19. 4
Some will say that the Covid-19 pandemic is a "Black Swan" event. Numerous epidemiologists disagree and have been cautioning about pandemics for years. Ironically, these experts were surprised to find relative complacency regarding threat of a pandemic Nobel Prize winner Professor Jason Shogren of the University of Wyoming was quoted in early 2020, "The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed that the U.S. was as unprepared as experts feared, given the response to the Ebola scare of 2014" 5. Professor Shogren goes on to say, "This lack of attention to pandemic threats is especially disturbing given the current Covid-19 and any potential future pandemics that may also have very high transmission rates, including transmission before individuals become symptomatic."6
Mass Fatality Incident (MFI) experts, like Michael Richardson, CEO & Founder of Mortuary Response Solutions, has been sounding the alarm for more than ten years about potential pandemics and the lack of preparedness. Richardson has said on numerous occasions that a pandemic of this magnitude is comparable to a Mass Fatality Incident. An MFI is an emergency management term used to identify a situation where the number of human remains exceeds the available resources. Richardson uses this analogy as he analyzes the current situation in many hospitals, funeral homes, and coroner facilities. Although many states, counties and cities anticipated the oncoming surge in cases, many overlooked the potential endgame Covid-19 presented. The eventuality was an overwhelming surge in death.
Pandemics can be naturally occurring or a man-made incident and can cause a mass fatality incident. Just over 100 years ago the "Spanish Flu" influenza, strain of A/H1N1H1N1 pandemic of 1918 killed tens of millions worldwide and overwhelmed response resources on a global level. Apparently, the lessons learned have been forgotten or misplaced. Experts in this field, particularly those who spent a decade urging Mass Fatality Incident Management planners to be prepared were for the most part ignored. The World Health Organization, Federal Government and many states developed guidance programs for MFI's, however current results would suggest few were implemented, until after the 2020 surge began. Subject matter experts, like Richardson and his numerous colleagues, should have been taken seriously years ago. Now is the time to mobilize and act. We must be better prepared, otherwise future results could be catastrophic

If you plan on being near Wilmington, NC, stop by the gallery for a great exhibit. Should be a really good show.


From a YOU TUBE COMMENT: Jesus saved me. I was a awful person. Living a life of crime from age 15 to 35. Been in and out of jails and prison. Today marks the day of being 12 years sober. I have had no confrontation with police not even a ticket. Once Jesus touches your heart you just want to do the right thing. The biggest gift the lord gave us was choice. Choose the person we want to be. I pray for everyone that has problems in their life. Don't look at God is ignoring you when you pray about your problem. God is side by side with you to help you get through the battle. Jesus is your friend that will never leave your side.. God bless and may the angels in heaven shout your name in victory!

A great everyday floor cleaner, this advanced formula by Parker & Bailey gently cleans and lifts away surface dirt and grime from sealed-wood and laminate floors, without harming your floor's finish.
Parker & Bailey's formula has been around for the best part of a century and is sourced from natural ingredients – just spray on, then dry-mop to a glorious sheen – and with a lovely citrus-based fragrance, it smells good too.
This is the best cleaner for laminate floors I have tried. It leaves the floor clean and streak-free and because you don't have to soak a mop, it is dry almost instantly. Great!
I've never seen this one before. I used this straight away after delivery. I find it does what it says on the label! In this case, paying more for a liquid cleaner is worth it. You don't need to spray a lot as it goes a long way. It makes my laminate floor look clean and smooth. I will be cleaning my floor more often now as this is better than using a solution in a mop bucket with a mop, which I was doing before.

Hernán Mendoza (n. Ciudad de México) es un primer actor y director de teatro mexicano.

Inicios
Nació y creció en la Ciudad de México. Es hijo del fallecido director de teatro Héctor Mendoza, y hermano del reconocido director y compositor Rodrígo Mendoza, Durante su niñez, le gustaba actuar por diversión. Pese a que su padre era todo un icono del teatro en México, durante su juventud solía irse de pinta y practicar tiro con arco, luego cuidó vacas en un racho en Saltillo, ya que le gustaba la vida en el campo y finalmente decidió estudiar actuación. Estudió en el CEA de Televisa, ya que a la directora le hizo ilusión su profesión de vaquero. Luego de eso, entró al Núcleo de Estudios Teatrales evaluado por Julio Castillo y Luis Fernando de Tavira Noriega.

Folksonomy, a free-form tagging, is a user-generated classification system of web contents that allows users to tag their favorite web resources with their chosen words or phrases selected from natural language. These tags (also called concepts, categories, facets or entities) can be used to classify web resources and to express users' preferences. Folksonomy-based systems allow users to classify web resources through tagging bookmarks, photos or other web resources and saving them to a public web site like Del.icio.us. Thus information about web resources and online articles can be shared in an easy way. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the folksonomy tagging phenomenon (also called social tagging and social bookmarking) and explore some of the reasons why we need controlled vocabularies, discussing the problems associated with folksonomy.

Q: c# double buffering buttons I've been working on one project last few months, and have one problem that I can't solve. I have a Windows form with controls on it. When user changes the controls size, app then fires sizechanged event and I move the controls on it accordingly. The main problem is with buttons because they have images - actually to be more precise - they are flat, no border, and have an image on it that's actually a drawn button(reason why I don't draw it by code is because the image is complex). On some machines they start to flicker when app is resizing. Form is set to DoubleBuffered true, and I've used this function to set double buffer on buttons.
public static void SetDoubleBuffered(System.Windows.Forms.Control c)
    {
        if (System.Windows.Forms.SystemInformation.TerminalServerSession)
            return;

        System.Reflection.PropertyInfo aProp =
              typeof(System.Windows.Forms.Control).GetProperty(
                    "DoubleBuffered",
                    System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic |
                    System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance);

        aProp.SetValue(c, true, null);
    }

Any suggestions?

A: This helped me a lot when I was having problems with double buffering. The code is a bit old, but is still covers the basics.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/DoubleBuffering.aspx
Hope that helps. :)

Blog > Data Breach > Recent Data Breaches
Data Breach |
Recent Data Breaches
Data breaches, hacks, and digital scams are a huge problem not only for companies and governments but for all of us. Because when your Personal Identifiable Information (PII) is exposed, it leads to identity theft and potentially losing the funds in your bank account.
Data breaches are a staggering problem, a problem that isn't going away any time soon.
With that in mind, consider a first-class identity theft protection service like IDShield to help protect you and your family against identity theft.
Now, let's look at the most recent, and largest, 2022 data breaches.
Health Care Data Breaches
Hospitals and health care companies have long been targets of cyber-criminals and 2022 is no exception.
In June of this year, a health care group, headquartered in Massachusetts, suffered a data breach that affected 2,000,000 people's names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses, and billing and private medical information.
In the same month, there were similar breaches at a Texas health care company that exposed similar personal information, including Social Security numbers and confidential patient medical data. And there were also breaches at other health care centers that affected over 770,000 patients, which led to FTC-mandated notifications to affected people, not to mention raising privacy and identity theft concerns.
DeFi platform data breaches
Cryptocurrency has risen in popularity in recent years, which also means that tools for managing such currencies have been developed too quickly. Online thieves have taken advantage in a big way.
In March 2022, a North Korean hacking group stole over $540 million worth of Ethereum.
And two other crypto hacks in 2022 led to over $500 million in losses. The first occurred when hackers exploited a flaw in the Wormhole bridge to steal millions worth of Ethereum and the second theft was a result of attackers focusing on a stablecoin protocol called Beanstalk that essentially enabled them to give themselves a loan.
All of the above goes to show that the possibility of losing significant funds as a result of a data breach is very real.
Russia is a world leader when it comes to hacking. Since the Ukraine conflict started in February 2022, Russia has caused blackouts, stolen data and exposed Ukrainians' Personal Identifiable Information. But Ukraine is fighting back. It has its own "IT Army" of "hacktivists" that focus on hacks and initiating data breaches in Russia on a new scale that is causing much damage to Russians—particularly, it's soldiers. For example, names, birthdates and passport numbers of 1,600 Russian soldiers were exposed. And in another leak, over 600 Russian spies had their PII released.
As this war drags on, this type of warfare will only increase.
California concealed-carry permit data breach
After the June 2022 Supreme Court decision about concealed-carry gun permit laws, there was a data breach that potentially affected EVERYONE who applied for a concealed-carry permit between 2011-2021.
This particular breach was not due to hackers but was a result of a careless mistake by the California Department of Justice 2022 Firearms Dashboard Portal.
While the breach in itself was not caused by hostile intent, the open data leaves individuals exposed to cyber-criminals who can take advantage of the information and commit identity theft.
GiveSendGo data breach
In February 2022, a Christian fundraising site was hacked in response to the trucker protests in Ottawa, Canada. The personal details of all those who made donations were exposed.
To make matters worse, the hackers published the personal information of over 93,000 contributors. This breach shows how important it is to use secure, encrypted payment systems.
It's difficult to predict future data breaches, but one area of commerce to keep an eye on is legalized online gambling. That market was worth over $53 billion in 2021. With more American states legalizing gambling, it's likely that gamblers will be in the crosshairs of cyber-criminals in the form of phishing and e-mail scams.
IDShield can help
The most important step you can take when it comes to protecting yourself from data breaches is to safeguard your Personal Identifiable Information. Getting identity theft protection from IDShield is truly one of the most effective ways to battle data breaches and online thieves. Don't become another statistic or horror story.

Retail is dead and born again: today's clients need to buy emotions before purchasing products.
We design stores to live in first person, made to create involving experiences, to entertain and to produce intense emotions.
Unique spaces, where each detail is tuned to represent your brand at its best and gain a special spot in your customer's mind.
People talk about whatever makes them feel good: our spaces generate a natural Word of Mouth, encouraging customers to return and share their experience with friends and loved ones.
We push customers to actively interact with the brand and to be present in the space they enter, fixing that moment in their memory.
The Haigō Store was designed and built by ourselves.
It has two contrasting atmospheres: one is minimal and refined, one is rough and unfinished. The first one represents the high-end positioning of the brand and creates an enclosing atmosphere through the use of dark tones and a bouncy rubber floor. The second part is a living construction yard: a spatial representation of evolution and perpetual transformation, essential values for Haigō, leading the brand on its journey.

Box Office – PadMan Is Another Success For Akshay Kumar
Of course, the numbers have been helped a bit by the fact that it was Mahashivratri holiday on Tuesday and Valentine's Day celebrations on Wednesday.
Joginder Tuteja
PadMan had collected 10.26 crore on its opening day and ever since then, the film has fallen less than 50% on the weekdays, which is a fair trending.
On Wednesday too the film collected 7.05 crore and that has allowed the overall numbers to reach 59.09 crores. Of course, the numbers have been helped a bit by the fact that it was Mahashivratri holiday on Tuesday and Valentine's Day celebrations on Wednesday.
The Akshay Kumar starrer should go past the 64 crore mark in its first week and that would be more than Baby (63.82 crores) and Gabbar Is Back (60 crores).
Both these films were relatively more commercial though and also belonged to the action genre. In case of PadMan, the genre warranted a far more restricted audience and from that perspective, the numbers which have been accumulated so far are even better.
The film is headed for a lifetime in the range of 90 crores which would allow profits for all involved. Of course, a 100 crore landmark is pretty much desirable for all involved with the film.
If that happens by some stretch, it would be an added bonus for the film. However, the fact that the film has managed to create further awareness around women sanitary hygiene is something which is the biggest gain for a large population.

Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc speaks at the ground-breaking ceremony of the expansion project of Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, Hoa Binh Province, January 10, 2021 in this supplied photo.
Vietnam's Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc attended the ground-breaking ceremony of the expansion project of Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant in northern Hoa Binh Province on Sunday morning.
The VND9.2 trillion (US$394.6 million) project involves the construction of two new turbines with a total capacity of 480MW and electricity output of about 488.3 million KWh per year.
Of the total investment, 30 percent is arranged by the Vietnam Electricity Group (EVN) and the remaining 70 percent comes from commercial loans without a government guarantee.
Once completed by 2024, the expanded Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant will have a total capacity of 2,400MW, equivalent to that of the Son La Hydropower Plant – currently the biggest power station in Vietnam.
Built in the Da River basin in the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh, at the time of its conception in 1979, Hoa Binh was the largest hydropower plant in Southeast Asia.
The construction was supported by the Soviet Union, now Russia, through designing, supplying equipment, supervising, and helping it go on stream.
The plant is in stable operation with an annual electricity output of nearly 10 billion kWh, making considerable contributions to the national electricity system and the provincial budget.
Addressing Sunday's event, PM Phuc said three power plants built in the Da River basin, namely Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, Son La Hydropower Plant, and Lai Chau Hydropower Plant, symbolize the country's industrialization and modernization cause.
After the expanded project is completed, the aforesaid power plants with a total capacity of 6,000 MW will account for 30 percent of the nation's electricity output.
PM Phuc took the occasion to pay tribute to the great efforts and sacrifices of the 168 officers and engineers, including 11 Soviet experts who lost their lives during the construction of the power plant.
The government chief also praised the great efforts of the electricity sector in increasing power output and capacity, raising the country's electricity access rate in rural areas to 99.3 percent.
Over the past six years, Vietnam's access-to-electricity index has jumped 129 places to 27th out of 190 countries and territories, he added.
Phuc stressed the need to ensure absolute and long-term safety and sustainable development throughout the construction and operation of the expanded power plant.

Most of my friends check out the clothes at retail shops and not buying, after that go and get their clothes online? Are you all doing this too?
The name ShuperStar is derived from the words Shoe ("Shu") and Superstar, because we want everyone who wears our shoes to be the star attraction – a ShuperStar!
prefer to buy in the shops too because i must try on before buying. sometimes will buy from the more popular blogshops like bonito cuz can 'browse' in office. lol.
I'm still hesitant about shopping online without trying because the cutting might be different.
H&M is good coz of the cheap price and a wide range of sizes.
ya find the direct supplier lor.
nt urgent to buy ma hehe.
Haha didn't zalora do this for a while? They have pop up stores for you to try and feel material, but have to purchase it online. Were they successful on this concept? Like all the store close Liao.
i am unable to buy from local blogshops coz I am not petite like most sg girls.
However, I got no problem buying from Asos etc.
I'm opposite from u! Asos always too long for me.
ASOS also have those petite sizes!
