Aliquippa's MJ Devonshire: 'Who would have thought you'd be going to Kentucky?'
Wednesday, February 6, 2019 | 9:33 AM
Aliquippa's MJ Devonshire carries for a touchdown during the second quarter against Derry in the WPIAL Class 3A championship game Saturday, Nov. 17, 2018, at Heinz Field.
Chris Harlan | Tribune-Review
Aliquippa senior MJ Devonshire (front, center) signed a letter of intent to play football at Kentucky on Feb. 6, 2019, at Aliquippa. He was joined by family members.
With his letter of intent on the table in front of him, Aliquippa's MJ Devonshire unzipped his jacket and showed a blue shirt underneath.
What color blue? Kentucky blue.
The highly recruited cornerback, who helped the Quips win WPIAL and PIAA titles in the fall, took his college recruitment all the way to signing day.
During a Wednesday morning ceremony at his high school, Devonshire announced his commitment to the Wildcats over Pitt, West Virginia and others.
"It's just where I felt most comfortable," said Devonshire, who visited Lexington with his family two weekends ago and left campus with a new favorite school.
"We came back that Sunday, I talked to my parents on Monday, coach (Mark) Stoops came to my house on Tuesday and from there I was sold," Devonshire said. "I was ready to go."
The 5-foot-11, 170-pound senior met with Pitt coaches last Thursday to "see what they had to say," but they couldn't sway his decision.
Rivals ranks Devonshire as a four-star recruit. He scored 24 touchdowns this past season as Aliquippa won WPIAL and PIAA Class 3A titles. His eight punt return touchdowns were one short of tying a national single-season record.
Pitt and West Virginia were considered frontrunners for landing Devonshire until recent weeks, when Kentucky upped its efforts.
"The crazy thing is, I asked myself the same question: 'Who would have thought you'd be going to Kentucky?'" Devonshire said. "If you would have said this to me in January, I would have looked at you like you were crazy."
Devonshire joins an SEC program that went 10-3 last season under Stoops. The Wildcats capped their season with a 27-24 victory over Penn State on New Years Day.
"Playing for Coach Stoops is exciting because they're turning the program around," Devonshire said. "Last year, they had their 10-win season, beating Penn State in the Citrus Bowl. Making a bowl game like that is a big thing. Playing in those bowl games is the next step to playing in the national championship."
Devonshire's next step could be to follow Kentucky basketball star Tyler Herro on Twitter, he said, and hope for a follow back. Devonshire ran into the freshman at a party during his recruiting trip and found himself in awe.
"I don't know if he noticed, but I was staring at him," Devonshire said with a laugh. "He's 6-6 standing in the middle of this party, and I see how people are treating him. Wow, I used to watch this guy on YouTube … and I'm actually in a room with Tyler Herro. It became real that I was a (Kentucky) recruit."

Call for Papers, Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society, "Pleasure and Danger"
Nov 05, 2014 → Apr 24, 2015
/Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society/ invites submissions for a special issue titled "Pleasure and Danger: Sexual Freedom and Feminism in the Twenty-First Century," slated for publication in the Autumn 2016 issue.
At the heart of the feminist project is a persistent concern with thinking through the "powers of desire" (Snitow, Stansell, and Thompson 1983) and expanding the potential for sexual and gender freedom and self-determination at the same time that we combat sadly persistent forms of sexual danger and violence. Exemplified in the US context by Carole Vance's landmark collection, Pleasure and Danger: Exploring Female Sexuality, feminist debates over sex, gender, and society have been incendiary. First published in 1984, as proceedings of the infamous "Scholar and the Feminist" conference at Barnard, which initiated the equally infamous "sex wars," this volume reproduced intense dialogue while also contributing to a much broader investigation of the politics (and pleasures, and dangers) of sexuality within feminist theory and culture. Articles that threw down gauntlets were subsequently canonized and celebrated. Much has changed since that explosive conference and book. Even the subtitle – "exploring female sexuality" – would now be more deeply interrogated (biologically female? presumptively heterosexual?) and certainly pluralized. But however reframed, the paradoxical joining that is "pleasure and danger" remains poignantly relevant.
For this special issue, we invite transdisciplinary and transnational submissions that address questions and debates provoked by the "pleasure and danger" couplet. Submissions may engage with the historical (how different is our moment from that formative "sex wars" era? have the sex wars moved to new terrain such as trafficking and slut-shaming?); the representational (how does the digital era transform our sexual lives? what does "livestreaming" sexual assault do to/for feminist organizing? what possibilities are there for feminist and queer imagery in an era of prolific porn, commodified otherness, and everyday inclusion?); the structural (how do race, ethnicity, religion, and national cultures enable and constrain sexual freedoms? how do carceral and governance feminisms frame and perhaps contain earlier liberatory impulses?); and/or the intersectional (how do we analyze the mutually constituting relations of sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, class, nationality, ability, age, and so on?). There are local and global questions to be asked and strategic arguments to be resolved. And the very terms are themselves constantly debated (whose pleasure are we speaking of and for? who is the "we" doing that speaking? who is imagined to be "in danger?" how does "gender" signify differently in that couplet from "sexuality?")
We particularly encourage analyses from all regions of the globe that address pressing concerns and that do so in a way that is accessible and, well, passionate! We encourage bold and big thinking that seeks to reckon with the conundrum still signaled by the pleasure/danger frame.
We especially seek submissions that attend to the couplet itself, to the centrality of pleasure/danger within the project of making feminism matter and resonate in ways both intimate and structural, deeply sensual and liberatory, simultaneously championing multiplicities of pleasures and a lasting freedom from violence and abuse.
The deadline for submissions is April 1, 2015.
Manuscripts may be submitted electronically through Signs Editorial Manager system at Submissions. Please choose the article type
"Pleasure and Danger - Special Issue Article." Guidelines for submission are available at Guidelines.
This call is available online at Signs or for download as a PDF at PDF.

Q: Childbrowser plugin with Phonegap Build - bug or inconsistency? I'm trying to use the Childbrowser plugin in Phonegap Build. I have a few problems:

*

*For iOS, I can only get it to work using PG2.0. Switching to PG2.1
makes it defunct.

*For Android, the same code that worked for iOS
and PG2.0 does not work at all.

From config.xml:
<preference name="phonegap-version" value="2.0.0" />
<gap:plugin name="ChildBrowser" /> <!-- latest release -->

I have used the Javascript API as described in https://github.com/alunny/ChildBrowser/blob/master/README.md
Ref: https://build.phonegap.com/docs/plugins
Any ideas or suggestions?

A: I think you may be looking at the wrong version of the child browser plugin - phonegap build is more likely using https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iOS/ChildBrowser

A: To summarize:
The Childbrowser plugin which is bundled with Phonegap Build requires Phonegap version 2.1 to work with Android. Both versions 2.0 and 2.1 work with iOS. Just remember to set the Phonegap version in both config.xml AND index.html!
https://github.com/alunny/ChildBrowser/blob/master/README.md is the correct repository for this plugin, at least when using Phonegap Build.

As a trained and educated chemist, my work explores the intersection between visual art and material science. I am literally doing chemistry when I mix and test my ceramic glazes and clay bodies. My content is the process itself, capturing the technical aspects of my medium by pushing the boundaries of the results of ceramic materials and glazes. As a professional chemistry educator, my passion for sharing and exploring chemistry is part of the drive behind my art. I want my viewers and collectors of my art to take away a deeper sense of wonder about the science, the natural world and chemistry in general. Many of the designs I use for my ceramic wall art come from or are inspired by the principles and concepts I teach daily in my chemistry classroom. Examples include molecular geometry and the etching of surfaces using different types of concentrated acids. I am always looking for creative ways to express my passion for the beauty of science and chemistry.
As a ceramic artist, the biggest challenge is my process. Compared to other mediums, ceramics require more technical understanding and processing with potentially dangerous outcomes in not managed properly. First and foremost, I need a kiln for bisque and glaze firings. My medium requires chemical changes around 1800 degrees Fahrenheit to be completed. Beyond the traditional processing of ceramic materials, I also explore the raku process with my own personal, chemistry inspired modifications. For my recent interest in iridescent lustre glazes, not only do I remove my work from the kiln at 1800 degrees Fahrenheit, I use a non-traditional raku process of fuming my work with a reducing medium. In other words, I spray my glowing hot work with a cocktail of isopropyl alcohol and metal chloride salts causing the surface to be reduced, creating a reflective nano-layer of metal ions in the glass phase of the glaze surface. As you might imagine, the chemicals and reaction products are toxic and require substantial chemical safety gear. Chemical safety and hygiene are important components of my artistic process.
Another challenge with my artistic medium and process are the infinite variables in the glaze recipe, clay body – glaze interactions, kiln temperature, kiln atmosphere, off-gassing by glazes, raku process timing and even unexpected variables like how much wind there is on the day I'm doing a firing. Each variable adds a little variation to the final result and it's sometimes difficult to replicate results without considering all the different pieces of the puzzle.
Before I mix a glaze or do a firing, I always review my notebook and write up conclusions from my previous attempts. Art and science are disciplines that require a deeper understanding of the past journeys of those who came before as well as your own experiments and results. Even so, I always like to pick one variable to intentionally modify with my current experiments to see if I can discover something new with this element of entropy. I find that my reflections on my previous experiment get me excited to continue my artistic/scientific journey forward.
I will often look at the diagrams and figures in recent scientific publications or textbooks for inspiration. The microscopic shapes of molecules, polymer and cellular biology give me inspiration for my abstract expression of scientific structures in my art. Ceramics Monthly is another great read specifically for ceramics.
I'm jealous of painters. Everyone knows what to do with a painting; hang it up on your wall and appreciate it's visual aesthetic. Early in my ceramic artist career I used to make large abstract vessels with bright, colorful glazes. I was always frustrated when a collector or viewer asked, "What type of plant can I put in this" or generally what could they do with my vessels. This was inspiration to move to sculptural wall art. I make objects for visual appreciation, not function. I am frustrated with the traditional association of ceramics with functional work, but I continue working with clay despite this.
Keep putting yourself out there. For every 10 applications I submit, I get 9 rejections. Don't take it personally or let it set you back. Becoming a professional artist is a long, long journey that requires grit and perseverance. Making art is only the beginning. I've found that effort, marketing, advertising and generally putting yourself out there is what has made the difference for my artistic efforts. Being an artist is a business and requires one to move and think beyond the studio.

The eco-polymath series returns with a look at apprenticeship and modern-day guilds.

This is part four of our Skills for the New Economy series. Read part one: "Creating an Artisanal Life as an Eco-Polymath."
The systems of apprenticeship that we know today were first developed in the Middle Ages as a method of training a new generation of practitioners on the job. Guilds formed around individual disciplines of tradespeople who practiced specific crafts. They were essentially unions of self-employed, collectives of people working in the same field.
In the early 13th century, guilds helped lead to the creation of some of the first European universities. During the Renaissance, a universal, polymath education often concluded in an apprenticeship where the individual worked toward mastering a specific discipline. Some apprentices would spend their post-apprenticeship careers as skilled tradespeople, while others became masters of their craft and opened their own workshop.
Guilds do not exist today as institutions and cultural structures that influence the practice of a particular craft. But the spirit of guilds can be still be found in the twenty-first century.
Ben Polley is owner of Evolve Builders Group in Guelph, Ontario, makers of a wide variety of environmentally friendly homes. Starting out as an art history major at Carleton University, he shifted his interest to planning and earned his Bachelor of Arts in Geography in 1995.
Graduating into a weak labour economy, Polley took what work he could get in his area: student jobs with the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carlton and Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, and volunteer placements with engineering and urban planning firms. After a move to Guelph in 1999 to find work, Polley stumbled upon his future.
"I was at [the] Hillside [music festival] and saw a workshop on straw bale building, led by a local teacher. He reminded me of the environmental and fire safety benefits of straw bale homes that I had read about as a child. I had a flashback to when I was five years old, when my family home burned down. I became preoccupied with straw bale buildings."
Straw homes have been used for shelter around the world for millennia. Bales of straw are used as structural elements or as building insulation, offering a sustainable method for heating and cooling. Straw-bale construction is naturally fire-retardant, is a great insulator, and uses a highly renewable low-cost resource, straw.
Polley read obsessively about straw bale building, visited straw bale homes, and found the only other people in Ontario who were building them. "I moved to Peterborough, where the three owners of Camel's Back Construction took me under their wing and taught me how to become their competition," he says, without a hint of humour in his voice. "They loved their clients, and saw the market was growing in a way that they couldn't serve."
In 2000, Polley became an apprentice for the first time.
"I started out as a volunteer with Camel's Back for a month, and then they hired me on contract," Polley continues. "I learned the specialized trade from the owners, who gradually provided me with prospective jobs they couldn't take because of geography."
A quick study, Polley launched Harvest Homes in 2001. "I hired people who were much more knowledgeable about conventional construction than I was. And for the next few years, I was the 'gaffer,' learning from the people I hired," he admits in a self-deprecating tone. Polley continued to work in a collaborative model, a guild, of sorts, with his former 'masters' at Camel's Back, with whom he shared resources and work leads.
A straw bale house in construction on one of Polley's sites in Ancaster.
He soon found himself engaged by his clients in sourcing environmental materials beyond the straw bale portions of the homes he was building for them.
"I became an importer and distributor of products that weren't locally available: natural paints, natural wood finishes, mineral pigments, sustainably harvested wood flooring."
Polley was about to expand his horizons.
Strategically deciding to expand his business into other facets of construction in order to meet client demand and address the staffing seasonality of straw bale construction, he created a new entity, Evolve, in 2006 to grow his general environmental homes business. This move allowed Harvest Homes to focus on the straw bale market.
In subsequent years, Polley opened three new divisions: Fermata, Torus, and mobEE. Fermata handles client requests for earthen-based building methods like adobe, cob and rammed earth, while Torus Ecosystems covers biological building systems like green roofs, artificial wetlands for septic waste, and grey-water recycling. This year, Polley expanded into manufacturing with the launch of his newest company mobEE, an acronym for mobile eco-enclosures, currently used by several First Nations for housing, and by school boards for use as eco-friendly school portables.
"Our people are comfortable with role shifting: sometimes they are giving instruction, and sometimes they are receiving it."
"A part of why we are successful is because we have a lot more expertise than what is typical for a small company like ours." At Evolve and its divisions, individuals are hired as skilled tradespeople, and have the option to take apprentice-style roles when their expert area is not in demand. This approach permits the opportunity to remain employed through the boom-bust construction year, while learning new disciplines.
Evolve takes pride in pioneering a high integrity team approach to green construction that almost exclusively uses in-house staff. The company's mission states: "We are managers, planners, educators, researchers, artisans, activists. But above-all, we are craftspeople." Evolve's four divisions enable staff to tackle artistic and highly specialized projects.
"In construction, there is a lot of hierarchy, which we wanted to avoid," explains Polley. "We have so many specialties on offer that we have developed a system to keep our expert staff employed throughout the year. Our people are comfortable with role shifting: sometimes they are giving instruction, and sometimes they are receiving it."
"I wanted to work with good people and work with my hands. But I've worked myself right back into the office," Polley admits. While he is the perpetual eager apprentice on his construction sites, he is a reluctant 'master' of management.
Polley's clients and employees love his approach to business. Evolve and its divisions are growing, while maintaining almost zero employee turnover. Everyone I met at the Evolve construction site I visited refers to "our company" and uses the pronoun "we" when describing their workplace.
"It comes down to people making a conscious decision to be in this field, building eco-friendly homes, for a living. It's a values based decision, not just a job." Polly has become an unintentional master of an eco-guild that has reinvented a long-time practice into aspirational one.
His eco-polymath character has instilled a resilient practice in his company. Evolve is a prototype for the workplace of the future.

Disney and Lucasfilm's rumor mill for Star Wars: Episode VII seems to offer updates on everything except what fans want to know about the highly anticipated next installment of saga. As Anthony Daniels teases the possible return of C-3P0 and release date info coupled with an idea of when we might see a teaser, the hard facts remain common knowledge: there will be a seventh feature film, it will be directed by J.J. Abrams from a script by Michael Arndt (based on material developed by George Lucas), and it will release in 2015.
As listeners of the recent Screen Rant Underground podcast recapping NYCC 2013 know, we here at SR are getting just as weary of hearing these rumors as most readers and fans. Questions of whether or not Episode VII will feature a female protagonist as well as the return of the original cast boil down to a smoke-screen as well as unabashed rumor-mongering.
However, it appears that there is one major original character we could be seeing again, but not necessarily on the big screen. A page from the brochure given to those who attended the European Brand Licensing Show in London from October 15-17 seems to detail all of Disney's major plans for multi-platform Star Wars releases. You can view a highlighted picture of the page HERE (courtesy of Jedi News, via Collider).
Beyond these, Disney lists a "Continuous Multi-Platform Engagement," which includes "Star Wars and Jedi Training Academy at Disney Parks," "May the 4th Be With You fan holiday," and "Social Media and PR, & Character Appearances."
The actual brochure page certainly looks authentic, but as always, this is to be taken with several tons of salt. While this list of releases includes items we know to be authentic - the upcoming Star Wars Rebels TV series, the Blu-Ray release of The Clone Wars Season 5, and the 2015 release date of Episode VII - the official page for Disney Consumer Products at the Brand Licensing Europe 2013 website does not list anything Star Wars-related among the brands featured. In other words, "Scruffy Bothan" might be a double-agent.
That said, a multi-platform media blitz makes perfect sense and is to be expected. The most exciting items are the spring/summer release date, the Darth TV specials, and the release of a digital library (the latter item sounds like it could mean that Disney will make the previous six films - and presumably The Clone Wars - available to stream on demand in some form, on some platform).
But what about Vader? We've seen his entire story played out in three original films and the three prequels, with his back-story filled out with The Clone Wars, but the chunk of time between The Revenge of the Sith and the first Star Wars film is largely incomplete, at least in the form of a proper film or TV adaptation. The 2008 console game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and it's 2010 sequel, The Force Unleashed 2, attempted to cover that ground by featuring a turncoat former Sith apprentice of Vader's. But there's still plenty of ground to cover with the character, considered he's one of the greatest screen villains of all time.
Authentic or not, this release plan is every bit as ambitious and multi-faceted as one should expect from Disney, and certainly illustrates their plan to make the most out of the ongoing public affection for all things Star Wars. Even if this list is not entirely accurate, Disney's actual plan is sure to run along these lines.
Star Wars: Episode VII is either slated for release in summer 2015, November 2015, or Christmas 2015, depending on the rumor.


I am re-posting Thursday's 365 entry with a different photo taken on the same day. I feel the editing on my first photo was rushed, and it was. I was already a day late posting the original photo and I just wanted to get it done when I got home from work. Anyway, here is my new 365 entry from the same night as the original.
I went down to Local 121 in Providence, RI last night to see Tig & Bean. I figured getting a photo of the amazing Caroline Hecht would be a great addition to this project. The lighting situation was challenging as all heck in there, and it was packed like sardines, but I did my best to get the shot. More photos from this night will be posted when I have a chance.
You can view the original photo which was not very sharp to begin with here. It suffered from me over editing, over sharpening, and just rushing in general. Lesson learned – stop rushing the project. As long as the photo is taken on it's respective day, I'll post it when it has been properly reviewed and edited.

Q: Error handling in Password reset flutter firebase I am building a Flutter/Firebase app with reset password functionality.
For modularity, I keep my auth functions in an AuthService Class.
class AuthService{
 final auth.FirebaseAuth _auth = auth.FirebaseAuth.instance;
 // **8** FUNCTION TO RESET PASSWORD
 Future<void> resetPassword(String email) async {
   try {
   return await _auth.sendPasswordResetEmail(email: email);
    } catch (e) {
   print(e.toString());
  }
 }
//  **8**

}

Then I call it in my widget like this:
final auth = Provider.of<AuthService>(context);
...
await auth.resetPassword(email);

When I add a .then method to go to a route when successful, it redirects to the new route even when there is an error.  I have tried to add a .catch method but that throws an exception.
How can I go about this?
       await auth.resetPassword(email).then((value) =>
            Navigator.push(
             context,
             MaterialPageRoute(
              builder: (context) =>
               const AndroidRecoverySuccess())));

Thanks.

A: Return bool value after sendPasswordResetEmail, also your Future should return bool. Here is the working code:
 Future<bool> resetPassword(String email) async {
   try {
      await _auth.sendPasswordResetEmail(email: email);

      return true;
    } catch (e) {
      print(e.toString());
      return false;
   }
 }

(optional) You can use FirebaseAuthException for better UX:
  Future<bool> resetPassword(String email) async {

Veronica Canton, '18 J.D., receives ABA leadership award
Author: Kevin Allen
The American Bar Association selected a member of Notre Dame Law School's Class of 2018 to receive one of its Leadership Recognition Awards.
Veronica Canton, '18 J.D., received the award for serving on the editorial board of Landslide, a publication of the ABA Section of Intellectual Property Law. Canton was invited to apply for a position on the board after she presented a paper in May 2017 at the International Trademark Association's annual meeting in Barcelona, Spain.
The ABA presented the Leadership Recognition Awards in April at the association's spring conference in Arlington, Virginia.
"One of the first law student editors for Landslide magazine, Veronica jumped in with both feet and has made an impact beyond magazine board expectations," said Scott Partridge, chair of the ABA's Intellectual Property Law Section.
"On numerous occasions, Veronica generously volunteered for projects that required a quick turnaround and attention to detail, this while also in law school," Partridge said. "The board is fortunate to have her and looks forward to watching her grow within the section."
In addition to her work with the ABA, Canton serves as president of the Hispanic National Bar Association Law Student Division. Also, she has been one of the leading team members on Impowerus – a student-led digital media startup that's connecting young immigrants with pro bono legal services.
After graduation, she will work with the commercial litigation team at Michael Best LLP in Milwaukee. She plans to become a Certified Information Privacy Professional this fall for both the United States and Europe, and she will continue working with the Impowerus team. She said she is always open to supporting other students and encourages them to connect with her via LinkedIn.
"To say I've enjoyed my law school experience is an understatement," Canton said. "And I'm elated to represent Notre Dame Law School in these endeavors."

Learning from science insights
stem insight
STEM Insight placements allow science teachers from across the UK to enrich their experience and gain new content for their lessons by spending a few days working in leading academic and industrial organisations. The placements give teachers the opportunity to get hands-on with cutting-edge science and to broaden their awareness of science career opportunities that are available to their students.
This year, the Babraham Institute hosted two teachers on a STEM Insight placement. In October we welcomed Helen Penketh and Sarah Hyland. Helen is a biology teacher from The Manchester College, the UK's largest further education college with campuses across Manchester. Sarah is a technician from West Suffolk College a vocational and academic further education college centred in Bury St Edmunds.
Together Helen and Sarah ran experiments with group leaders, postdoc and PhD students in the Cook, Stephens, Casanueva, Okkenhaug and Houseley labs and visited the Institute's Mass Spectrometry and Imaging facilities. Amongst other things they ran gels, examined worms, carried out flow cytometry tests and investigated genome editing. Over the week they also visited several campus companies including AstraZeneca, Phoremost and Kymab. Through meetings with the Institute's Impact team, Helen and Sarah also heard about how the Institute maximises the value of our research and communicates it to the wider world.
Reflecting on her expectations of the placement, Sarah said: "I have to be honest and say that I was not really sure what to expect, only that it was going to be a full week. But the variety was great, I really enjoyed experiencing the connections and distinctions between academic research and industry. I'm also especially interested in the public engagement and outreach side of the Institute's work. I was glad that we were able to get some hands-on experience too."
When asked about the most interesting part of the week, Helen said: "It really is hard to pinpoint just one aspect; everybody was so accommodating to us and extremely helpful. I found the types of microscopy particularly interesting. The images they produce provide a great resource for examining the structure of cells, which will help me in my teaching of cell biology. I learnt a lot from the sessions in the Immunology lab and with Kymab. I was able to refresh and update my immunology subject knowledge and learn new technical procedures like flow cytometry and mass spectrometry."
Both visitors said that they weren't expecting there to be so much going on at the Institute and that they were inspired and amazed by the work being done here and at the companies on Campus. They learnt a lot about the latest science and have plenty of new ideas and careers advice that they're keen to take back to their colleges.
Helen is keen to use her experiences to add to her teaching: "I will be using all the subject knowledge to update my lessons and I have loads of new resources to give the students a better learning experience. It was a great insight into the lives of my students, as I now know how it feels to have so much new information to process and learn from. I intend to make the best use of the connections I have made to provide my learners with as much career information as possible, i.e. what possible career paths can be pursued from a scientific qualification."
Sarah is looking forward to recommending the placement to colleagues: "I would highly recommend this placement to colleagues. It was a full-on week but everyone was really friendly, welcoming and open to give up time in their busy day to talk to us. They provided hands-on experience and spoke to us about their work and their careers so far as well as kindly providing us with copies of presentations and resources.
"Moreover, the campus site is beautiful and it is held together by teams of people from the catering staff (the cheese scones are to die for), the technical support staff, admin staff and security staff who all contribute to a warm and friendly environment and who help in a big way to keep the science happening."
Both teachers kept daily blogs during their placements. See how Helen got on here, or hear from Sarah here. As well as providing detailed accounts of their week in the Institute, the blogs provide useful teaching tips and resources.
The STEM Insight placements are coordinated across the UK by STEM Learning and currently include around 40 organisations from different areas of science and technology spanning both academia and industry. Teachers from state-funded schools and colleges are able to access funding for their placements thanks to Project ENTHUSE, a fund supported by government, charities and private enterprises to support inspired science teaching by providing continuing professional development for teachers. To find out more about placements at the Institute visit the STEM Learning webpage or contact pe@babraham.ac.uk.
Enquiries for future placements should be addressed to pe@babraham.ac.uk

Q: Focus does not work when pressing ArrowDown and ArrowUp with HostListener I am looking for a way to focus/highlight on each div element with ArrowUp and ArrowDown keys. With tabindex as 0 in the div element, the first value in the drop down gets a highlighted border but is still not selected  and not sure how to use tabIndex to iterate through all the values with arrowdown and arrowup. I have the below component with the html file. Any help would be appreciated.
HTML

<input type="text" #input [value]="value" >

{{value}}

TS
  @HostListener('window:keydown', ['$event']) keyEvent(event: KeyboardEvent) {
  if (event.key == 'ArrowDown') {
    this.item.nativeElement.focus();
  } else if (event.key == 'ArrowUp') {
     this.item.nativeElement.focus();
  } else {
    //update
  }
}

A: in this SO you has a method, in this another SO can serve as "inspiration"
Well, Using the last. the idea is to has a directive that has three variables prev,self and next
@Directive({
  selector: "[next-tab]"
})
export class NextTabDirective {
  self: any;
  next: any;
  prev: any;

  @HostListener("keydown.arrowup", ["$event"])
  onUp(event: KeyboardEvent) {
    if (this.prev && this.prev.focus) {
      this.prev.focus();
      this.prev.select();
      event.preventDefault();
      return false;
    }
  }

  @HostListener("keydown.arrowdown", ["$event"])
  onDown(event: KeyboardEvent) {
    if (this.next && this.next.focus) {
      this.next.focus();
      this.next.select();
      event.preventDefault();
      return false;
    }
  }

  constructor(private control: ElementRef) {
    this.self = control.nativeElement;
  }
}

Well, we are going to create a new directive that take account the inner "next-tab"
export class ManageArrowDirective implements AfterViewInit {
  @ContentChildren(NextTabDirective) controls: QueryList<NextTabDirective>;

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    const controls=this.controls.toArray()
    controls.forEach((x, index) => {
      x.prev = index ? controls[index - 1].self : null;
      x.next =
        index < controls.length - 1 ? controls[index + 1].self : null;
    });
    this.controls.changes.subscribe(ctrls => {
      const controls=ctrls.toArray();
      controls.forEach((x, index) => {
        x.prev = index ? controls[index - 1].self : null;
        x.next =
          index < controls.length - 1 ? controls[index + 1].self : null;
      });
    });
  }
}

You use

   <input next-tab ...>
   <input next-tab ...>

The directive "NextTabDirective" can be applied to ngControls, so we can control if it's disabled or not
Here we go!
First inject in constructor of our directive the ngControl as public
  constructor(private control: ElementRef,@Optional()public ngControl:NgControl) {
    this.self = control.nativeElement;
  }

And then, implements a few complex directive to take accont can be controls disabled
export class ManageControlDirective implements AfterViewInit {
  @ContentChildren(NgControlDirective,{descendants:true}) controls: QueryList<NgControlDirective>;

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    this.rearrange();
    this.controls.changes.subscribe(ctrls => {
      this.rearrange(ctrls.toArray())
    });
  }
  rearrange(controls:NgControlDirective[]=null)
  {
    setTimeout(()=>{
    controls=controls||this.controls.toArray()
      controls.forEach((x, index) => {
        x.prev = this.getPrevControlEnabled(index,controls)
        x.next = this.getNextControlEnabled(index,controls)
      });

    })

  }
  getPrevControlEnabled(index,controls:NgControlDirective[]){
    if (index)
        return controls[index-1].ngControl.enabled?controls[index-1].self:this.getPrevControlEnabled(index-1,controls)
    return null;
  }
  getNextControlEnabled(index,controls:NgControlDirective[]){
    if (index<controls.length-1)
        return controls[index+1].ngControl.enabled?controls[index+1].self:this.getNextControlEnabled(index+1,controls)
    return null;
  }
}

Q: Content not sizing to modal window until browser window resize I'm trying to place dynamic content in a modal (popup) but they're not sizing properly. However, if I have the popup open and resize my browser window, they kick into place. The content is clearly sizing to the hidden div prior to opening the modal. How can I fix this? I'm assuming jQuery is the way to go?
Below is a screenshot of what I'm facing. The top part of the photo is what appears when I click the link to open the modal & the bottom pick is what happens after I resize my window (which is what I'm after).
Here's the click event code.

                    $args['mainClass'] += ' video-frame';
                } else {
                    $args['mainClass'] += ' standard-frame';
                }
                if(ThemifyGallery.isInIframe()) {
                    window.parent.jQuery.magnificPopup.open($args);
                } else {
                    $.magnificPopup.open($args);
                    $(window).trigger('resize');
                }
            });

I did add $(window).trigger('resize'); and it works great! I just need to implement it in my own scripts.js so it's not overwritten someday.
Thanks again,
Mike
Content not sizing to modal window until browser window resize

A: If window resize event can fix your problem, then you can simply trigger the event after you show your modal form by this (in jQuery):
 $(window).trigger('resize');

Further debugging requires your actual HTML markups and JS codes.


OPEC and non-OPEC cuts are at or exceeding their stated goals as Russia finally reached its 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) target. However, their efforts have been undermined by three primary factors: expansion by OPEC producers not subject to cuts, expansion by non-OPEC producers and higher stockpiles of refined products (e.g., gasoline) that dampen the look-through demand for crude oil. Today's featured map is from Bloomberg, showing the expansion of US rig production, which in turn has sent total US oil production to 9.3 million barrels per day (mbpd), only 0.3 mbpd below the high set in 2015. Note that this production has been achieved with only 697 rigs, ~43% of the high set in 2015. Yes, same production, but with less than half the rigs – and the count is still increasing. US shale production for May is set for its largest monthly increase of 123,000 bpd per the EIA. Gulf of Mexico production is steadily increasing as well with offshore flows running at a record pace of 1.6 mpbd and more to come through the end of 2018. Natural gas production from shale plays is increasing along with their oil production – the Permian Basin produces 15% more natural gas than it did a year ago, the same rate of increase as its change in oil output.
Libya, which is not subject to OPEC restrictions, has seen their output increase to 760,000 bpd with a goal of 1.1 mbpd seen achievable with a new peace agreement between the country's two main factions. Peace talks are also underway in Nigeria (again, in OPEC but not subject to restrictions) with now only one major (200,000 bpd) pipeline not functioning (though barge shipments are keeping some oil flowing). Two large fields (totaling over 400,000 bpd) are due to come back from maintenance over the next few months. Extending cuts at the May 25th meeting is possible but Russian companies have announced plans to expand output during the second half of 2017 so the direction is in doubt. Iran's presidential elections on the 19th may also alter the negotiations.
In March, Russia was the #1 crude exporter to China – followed by Angola then Saudi Arabia. China is gorging on more cheap crude than ever (9.2 mbpd average imports in Q1) as privately owned refiners have been permitted to increase oil purchases and the country has added to its strategic reserve. Refinery throughput averaged a record 11.21 mbpd in the first quarter as refiners churned out unprecedented volumes of refined products including gasoline and diesel. China expanded its global product exports as its shipments rose by nearly 25% in 1Q from the same period in 2016 to 1.06 mbpd.
Stepping back, Saudi Arabia's Aramco is still looking to IPO in 2H 2018 so they are banking on stronger demand in 2H 2017. Oman also is looking to sell off parts of its national energy infrastructure (primarily in chemicals and drilling) so it too wants higher oil prices. The collapse of Venezuela's government and related oil exports is still possible as riots recently spread across the country. However, Maduro did stay current and pay $3 billion in due debts and interest. The country is still in financial trouble as in mid-April a Russian company seized a Venezuelan oil tanker in order to try to get $30 million in past-due payments. Now it is up to the courts. On the bearish side, US gasoline demand is still slowing, falling -2.4% year-on-year in the second straight monthly decline.
In grains, Brazilian farmers should produce a record corn crop of 93.2 million tonnes this year per Reuters, above the 89.6 million tonnes expected in a previous survey. Corn output will be boosted by a record second corn crop (winter crop) seen by market analysts at 63 million tonnes. Soy production in 2016-17 is expected to reach 110.8 million tonnes compared to 106.8 million tonnes in a previous poll. Stronger-than-expected soybean yields across Argentina could more than make up for the 1 million hectares (2.47 million acres) lost to flooding and drought this season, Buenos Aires Grains Exchange said. The US crops are being planted at an average pace despite torrential rains. Russia also is poised to continue to produce and export record grain amounts this year as last year's results put it at the top with more than 34 million tonnes exported of all grains. In comparison, just fifteen years ago, Russia was a net importer. All food exports combined make this sector the second-largest export portion (after oil and gas but greater than military products). Bigger sales than that of the AK-47? Now that is serious money.
Brazil's total beef exports rose in March despite a food safety scandal that caused many countries to question the quality of its meat products and impose temporary bans. Total beef exports, including fresh and processed varieties, had reached 125,000 tonnes in March, up 20 percent from February, beef exporters association ABIEC said. The world's largest meatpacker JBS SA resumed slaughtering at six out of 10 beef processing units after sending workers on temporary leave earlier this month with another four units restarting operations on May 2. At the end of April and into early May, cattle futures extended a surge to a record and wholesale beef jumped to a 13-month high after a weekend blizzard hammered the Midwest. More than half of U.S. feedlots are located in the region hit by the massive storm that dumped more than 12 inches (30 centimeters) of snow. Cash cattle prices had seen big gains even before the storm, surging 40 percent since the middle of October as domestic and global beef demand rose. On the demand side, Trump declared success last month in gaining greater access to China for U.S. beefs suppliers after meetings with President Xi Jinping. With the storm passing, we shall see how prices react, though low weights may continue to seasonally hurt beef production for a few more weeks/months.
Finally, in metals news, copper stockpiles jumped 25% in early May, signaling ample supplies and increasing supply from Australia and declining industrial demand from China. The sentiment spilled over to other metals, with iron ore locked limit down on China's Dalian exchange at one point.

TARTUFFE RETURNS – live and onstage.
A new Tartuffe opens at La Criée: Théâtre national de Marseille and runs November 3 to 26, before going on tour to Paris and throughout France until May 2022. Set in the 1950s, it's the creation of Macha Makeïff, La Criée's artistic director since 2011. She previously created an amazing modern-dress Trissotin ou Les Femmes Savantes in 2015, even touring it to China in 2018.
About the set, she said: «Je voulais avoir un décor qui, une fois éclairé par Jean Bellorini, puisse devenir étrange, presque hitchcockien d'une certaine façon. Dans Tartuffe, tout doit pouvoir suggérer un monde un peu dangereux, un peu obscur, un peu fantomatique.»

Live streaming outside….
An adaptation of Tartuffe live-streamed onto the second floor outside wall across the street from the Théâtre du Petit Saint-Martin in the 10th arrondissement of Paris – free for passersby.
Another way….
I've never seen actors wearing masks like this!
These photos of live theatre taking place in Germany right now are from a production of Tartuffe (in German, of course) by the Burghoftheater, Dinslaken, yesterday.
The review mentions there was no intermission and the theatre was "pandemic-compliant, incomplete rows." The actors are still touching, though. Interesting.
A live Tartuffe for a pandemic….
My last blog entry showed screen shots of my own Tartuffe translation in a live Zoom production. Guillaume Bailliart has come up with another way of complying with new rules under which theatre exists in France – a one-person Tartuffe, live on stage with a socially-distanced audience.
He calls it Tartuffe d'après Tartuffe d'après Tartuffe d'après Molière (Tartuffe based on Tartuffe based on Molière's Tartuffe).
To be fair, he first put it on stage in 2013, and has continued to keep it in his repertoire – but he has more shows coming up in France in December, 2020.
Yes, he plays all the roles, switching characters physically back and forth. He explains why Tartuffe is his only character that keeps his eyes open. Click on the image to watch a 3-minute clip.
A Zoom Tartuffe!
A rehearsed online reading of my Tartuffe presented by Theatre in the Country in Langley, BC – live via Zoom – for two nights (June 5 & 6, 2020).
R.I.P. Jean-Laurent Cochet (January 28, 1935 – April 7, 2020)
"Ce matin, mon professeur de théâtre, dont l'enseignement a bouleversé ma vie, nous a quitté." (This morning, my old professor – whose theatre courses turned my life upside down – has left us.)
~ French actor Actor Fabrice Luchini
Jean-Laurent Cochet, actor, director and teacher was taken by covid-19 yesterday at the age of 85. His career included becoming a 'pensionnaire' of the prestigious Comédie-Française in the early 1960s. He founded his own acting school (le cours Cochet) in 1966, where he taught generations of actors, incuding Luchini, Gérard Depardieu, Emmanuelle Béart, Isabelle Huppert, Daniel Auteuil, and Arnaud Denis.
He directed more than 150 productions and played more than 300 roles, many of them classics of French theatre. Over his career, he worked in many of the plays I've translated. He both directed and acted in Molière's Le Misanthrope and Tartuffe (he did both at the same time in one Tartuffe production and in 3 separate productions of Le Misanthrope.) In 2020, I was lucky to have seen in person his Philaminte – formidable, dignified and very funny – in Les Femmes Savantes (my Educating Women). He directed Henry Becque's La Parisienne (my One Rose, Two Thorns) and Jules Renard's Le Pain de Menage (my The Colour of Grass), and both directed and acted in Marivaux' Les Sincères (my Really, Really, Really, Sincerely Yours). He was also fond of playwrights Labiche, Feydeau, and Guitry. I can't imagine another modern French theatre giant as connected to my own work as Jean-Laurent Cochet.
Set Designs for Molière: (3) Les Femmes Savantes
Molière didn't write stage directions or set descriptions as we know them. Perhaps that's part of why his plays retain their freshness: time and place are largely left up to each theatre company or director to determine. Productions of Les Femmes Savantes are no exception, as these creative examples illustrate….
Another German Tartuffe
German productions excel in bringing out the dark side of Tartuffe – and the 2017 ResidenzTheater show in Munich was no exception – even though director Mateja Koležnik is from Ljubljana, Slovenia. You can see for yourself in these photos by Raimund Orfeo Voigt (who also designed the set):
Molière's 398th birthday
Every January 15, the company of the Comédie-Française in Paris celebrates Molière's birthday, in costume, on stage. (see a video clip from last year's celebration below.) This year was his 398th….
A Lithuanian Tartuffe in China:
The Lithuanian National Drama Theater (Lietuvos nacionalinis dramos teatras) is touring 5 Chinese cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Quanzhou, and Xiamen) in July, 2019, with their production of Tartuffe presented last summer in the Avignon festival.
Director Oskaras Koršunovas gave this blunt answer in an online interview with Chinese journalists:
"How was the script (re-)written? Did you take reference from current affairs or media?
"Everyone gets this impression that the text has been rewritten because the performance looks and sounds very modern. … in Europe there is a tendency to rewrite the classic plays, the directors usually do it themselves, thinking they can do it better than the playwrights. It's a popular trend, but it's not something I do.
"In general, I think that this tendency to rewrite the classics has come from the creator's inability to speak using the means of expression of pure theater. When the creators do not know the language of the theater, they are unable to interpret classical texts in a modern way and then they begin to rewrite them, and the results, with rare exceptions, are very sad. In my version the text is Moliere's."
From these photos, Chinese audiences are in for a rare treat:
Set Designs for Molière: (2) Le Misanthrope
Directors have found Le Misanthrope particularly relevant to contemporary life and used great creativity in their set designs. This selection ranges from almost bare stages to a private restaurant rented for the occasion by Celimene (Schauspielhause, Zürich, 2013)….
Set Designs for Molière: (1) Tartuffe
Molière's plays are classics because their themes are universal; they're at home across oceans and centuries.
Molière didn't write stage directions as we know them. I believe that's part of why his plays retain their freshness: time and place is largely left up to each theatre company or director to determine. I've tried to keep that flexibility in my translations into English.
Several of my blog posts highlight the range of costumes featured in various productions of Tartuffe, The Misanthrope, and Les Femmes Savantes (the three Molière plays I've translated). Set design provides an even broader scope for directors. Here are a few, beginning with Tartuffe….
Happy 397th birthday, Molière!
Jean-Baptiste Poquelin (aka Molière) was born (or at least baptized) on the Rue Saint-Honoré, Paris on January 15, 1622. Each year the actors of the Comédie-Française – known as "la Maison de Molière" – celebrate the day. Here's a 6-minute clip (in French) from January 15, 2017 – with all the company, dressed in costume of whatever role they were playing at the time, speaking their favourite lines from Molière. Note that the biggest hit of that season was a modern-dress production of Molière's own Le Misanthrope. Click on the image to watch the clip.
Mizantróp in Hungarian
I've discovered a substantial number of Hungarian-language Misanthrope (Mizantróp) productions. (Some were produced at Hungarian-language theatres in neighbouring Romania.)
Hungarian directors seem to have found Moliere's classic particularly relevant to contemporary life and chose sets and costumes accordingly – including a gay production in 2004 Budapest. Enjoy the photographs.
R.I.P. Yves Basc (b.1930 – d.November 29, 2018)
… actor, director. Sociétaire (member) of the Comédie-Française.
Among many other roles and plays, he directed (and played the title role in) a production of Tartuffe for the Tréteaux de France, the French national company that toured the US, England, Scotland and Australia in 1968-69. Sadly, I don't have a photo of it, but the October 11, 1968 Harvard Crimson wrote that this "very slimy Tartuffe" gives his role "credibility and life."
Other Molière plays in which he appeared (some in more than one production) include Le Misanthrope, Les Femmes Savantes, L'École des femmes, Critique de l'École des femmes, L'Etourdi, Le Malade imaginaire, Les Précieuses ridicules (also directed), L'Avare, and L'Impromptu de Versailles
Gasc also acted in many films and television specials. His last stage role (at the age of 84) was Basque in the 2014 Comédie-Française production of Le Misanthrope, filmed and shown in cinemas around the world.
R.I.P. DOUGLAS RAIN (b.1928 – d.November 11, 2018)
In 1968, the year this gifted actor played the voice of HAL 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey, he also played Orgon to William Hutt's Tartuffe at Canada's Stratford Festival.
NO TRANSLATION NECESSARY?
No translation necessary for Um Tartufo by the Cia Teatro Esplendor located in the Rio de Janeiro neighbourhood of Botafogo … because it's performed without words! Yes, Molière's plays are noted for their language (he probably had as much influence on the French language as Shakespeare had on English), and no, as a translator I'm not predisposed to dispense with language, but…. this mimed production has the élan we've come to expect from Brazil.
From the reviews in Portuguese I've been able to read, director Bruce Gomlevsky has remained faithful to the story, but dispensing with words has expanded his scope for creativity.
Visually it reminds me of the groundbreaking 1995 Tartuffe production by Arianne Mnouchkine's Théâtre du Soleil – with a touch of commedia dell'arte and a soupçon of kabuki. By the way, that's the director's sister, Yasmin Gomlevsky, in the role of Tartufo.
A TRADITIONAL (AND METICULOUS) TARTUFFE IN PARIS.
40 years ago, the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin in Paris staged two landmark productions of Tartuffe in succeeding years: by directors Roger Planchon, then Antoine Vitez.
Now they've done it again: last year by Michel Fau, and opening September 2018 by Peter Stein. Both bucked a contemporary trend to staging Molière in modern dress. Stein, a German director now living in Italy, never considered directing Tartuffe in any language but French.
"With Molière, it's always the language. His alexandrins, hard-edged or musical, contain an irony that's very French. The play is built on moments – comic, moving, violent – but it always comes down to the words." [my translation]
At the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin, Stein had the advantage of two veteran stars of the French stage: Jacques Weber as Orgon, and Pierre Arditi as Tartuffe.
BILINGUAL TARTUFFE IN UK: "JUST SAY NON"
Yes, even Tartuffe can go wrong. A bilingual production of Tartuffe opened with much anticipation May 25, 2018 at Theatre Royal Haymarket, UK. Blending the 'langue de Molière' (surtitled) with a new English translation by Christopher Hampton … it fell enormously flat, at least with the critics ("Just say non" came from Metro Newspaper UK.) Here's a sampling:
"Sacré blue! Ce bilingual Tartuffe ne works pas"
~ The Telegraph
"On paper, it might have seemed like a good idea. In practice, this bilingual version of Molière's great comedy, played in both French and English, proves erratic and confusing."
~ The Guardian
"An imposing, monumental box took centre stage, fronted by glass that could be changed from clear to cloudy at the flick of a switch, hiding and revealing the actors inside. The novelty of this theatrical toy quickly wore off."
~ The Economist
"Elsewhere – apparently at random – Hampton turns parts of the text into English blank verse, which next to the French sounds jarringly casual. Why two languages anyway? We never know."
~ The Arts Desk
"the moments of political seriousness are clunky, especially when the now almost obligatory reference to Donald Trump is introduced with all the subtlety of a charging rhino."
~ Evening Standard
"Merde, what a mess."
~ The Times
Theatre Royal Haymarket, UK 2018: Orgon, Tartuffe, with cast in the 'cube'
With all modesty … look HERE for a better Tartuffe translation.
ORGON….
"At the curtain call, the audience – completely won over and on their feet – brought back the actors several times. Even so, I wasn't sure that they'd fully understood that the main target of this comedy – as our Orgon, Michel Bouquet, wrote in his book about Molière – was not the title character, but the man he played:
"There are many Orgons in the world today – people whose weakness lies in a preference for blindness, a need for authority, and dreams of obedience..."
~ translated from Francis Richard's review of TARTUFFE at Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin in Paris, December 3, 2017.
TARTUFFE is not so much about hypocrisy or greed as it is about gullibility; in that sense, the main character is not Tartuffe, it's Orgon. The key to a successful production often lies in creating an Orgon that the audience believes is clever enough to run a successful business yet dim enough to believe in Tartuffe when everyone in his household (except his mother) sees through him.
Here are a few interesting looking Orgons:
ANOTHER CREATIVE TARTUFFE FROM GERMANY.
I'll let these production photos (yes) speak for themselves. Taken by Sandra Then, they're from TARTUFFE which opened April 14, 2018 at the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus, Germany, directed by Robert Gerloff. I can't find who the German translator is; perhaps it's Robert Koall, given credit for 'dramaturgie.'
And for an even better idea of this production, here's the youtube trailer:
AN ALL-WOMAN, MODERN FEMMES SAVANTES IN FRANCE.
My goal in writing EDUCATING WOMEN, my translation of Molière's Les Femmes Savantes, was to allow English-speaking theatre companies as much choice in tone and setting as Molière's original script, but French director Agnès Larroque of la Compagnie du Détour has gone one better. She has set her version of this classic in a modern kitchen, with only five actors – all women!
The five women play Philaminte, Belise, Armande, Henriette and Martine, and each doubles as one of the men: Chrysale, Ariste, Clitandre, Trissotin, and Vadius. They also play the actors they really are, changing in full view of the audience and arguing about it onstage before beginning Les Femmes Savantes proper.
It's fast-paced, side-splittingly funny, and more. The director had this to say about it: "These women are ridiculous; they touch us; they disturb us. It's that balance – between the comic and the poignant – that is exactly what I want to explore in Les Femmes Savantes. [my translation]
It was produced in the 2016 Avignon Festival, and is still touring France (last show now scheduled is May 31, 2018)
TARTUFFE IN ROMANIA, 2018
Tartuffe opened March 18, 2018 at the Teatrul Maria Filotti in Brăila, Romania in a new Romanian translation by Doru Mareş. The director was Alexandru Mâzgăreanu, described as "one of the most creative and successful directors of the young generation."
As local critic Armanda Filipine writes (translated):
"Of course there's laughter – it's a Molière play, after all – but when the director goes beneath the surface and the actors are true, it's laughter mixed with sadness and with bitterness. This play deals with life, and life must always be taken seriously."
TARTUFFE IN MONTREAL
Set in 1951 Montreal, the Lakeshore Players Dorval production of my TARTUFFE translation ran November 2 to 11, 2017:
A handful among many patron comments:
"Fantastic show! Was there on Friday and loved every minute"
"enjoyed every moment of the show"
"I was sad to see the Saturday show, because it was SO good, but I couldn't suggest to anyone else to see it, since it was the last! Great job!"
"Really funny! Well done!"
"Enjoyed the production immensely! Bravo!"
"Great show…..well cast….well produced and directed….and……funny!"
"Fantastic play!!! Amazing actors/actresses. Dorine stole the show!!!!"
MODERNITY OF THE MISANTHROPE
Here are a few 2017 modern dress European productions:
TARTUFFE in AFRICA
TARTUFFE is a classic because it's timeless and universal – as these two recent productions illustrate.

These are perfect. Molière has endured, very much to his credit and extraordinary consistency, in each one of his plays and throughout his complete works.

It is getting colder now, autumn is really here and before you know it we'll be in the deep of winter! I don't mind the colder months but I do mind the utilities bill when it lands on the doorstep! So here are some tips on how to stay warm this winter and save money.
Don't turn the heating on – put on an extra jumper or snuggle up under a cosy blanket on the sofa.
There are so many grants available for free home insulation – get googling and find out if you could benefit. We did it and our house is so much warmer now. We paid nothing to install it and it saves us money every winter.
If you don't have double glazing installing it will add value to your home and really save you money on your heating bills. So much heat is lost through poorly fitted and drafty windows so decent double glazing is really a wise investment.
If you really must put on the central heating on make sure you have the thermostat turned down as low as you can – every degree saves you money. Also make sure you time it right – there is no point having it on all night when you are tucked up in bed but an blast of heating in the morning for an hour when you are getting ready is lovely and a much cheaper option.
Moving around will keep you warm (and fit!). Stick on an exercise DVD or do some housework or cook up a home cooked meal for your family and you'll be warm in no time!
Do you have any tips on how to stay warm without spending a fortune this winter? I'd love to hear them!

"Top of the world, Mum!"
This may be one of the dumber hero intros in history, but my new character White Rook has decided she need to meet other heroes and get involved in the local hero community, since she's a bit shy and not so much of a self-starter. He plan is to port to the top of the Plaza Hotel building and keep a weather eye out for heroes flying or swinging buy, so she can head on over to them and introduce herself properly.
I can bop Emissary along for that, sure.
Sure, we could have more than one other hero involved, but it will take a bit of planning. Do the Emissary and Dark Star know each other?
Another thought is that while up on the roof, she sees some fracas/disaster of some sort nearby and flies/ports over to help, and others see it to and arrive at about the same time.
That's fine too if you want to take the hand in running the thread basically, Emissary and Dark Star haven't met, no.
Okay, I started a thread called 'Looking Down on Creation' in Wading Way, both IC and OOC versions. It's not much, but it's a start.
Mind if Yuki jumps in as well? Considering that the two is planned to be teammates sooner or later, it's a good way to meet.
