RECENTLY ANNOUNCED: Cats, Frozen and more, promised for upcoming season at Proctors, Capital Rep
in Entertainment, The Spot, Theatre
Cats will return to Proctors next April. (Matthew Murphy / Special to TheSpot518)
Break a leg.
The popular idiom that theater actors and performers say to wish one another good luck before heading onstage. But it seems that in the upcoming 2019-2020 Proctors and Capital Repertory Theatre seasons, audiences would ironically have to break a calendar too to enjoy all the plays, musicals and performances planned for the Capital District.
The duo-lineup, for Proctors in Schenectady and the REP in Albany, was first announced on Monday, March 4 in a bash event to get local theater-worshipping and casual viewers alike excited for the new year.
At Proctors, families will get to witness pop cultural animated joy come to life with "The SpongeBob Musical" from Sept. 22 to 28, 2019 and Disney's "Frozen" from Nov. 10 to 24, 2019, both of which seem poised to attract large crowds. Concerning the former, while the original

Nickelodeon TV show's creator, Stephen Hillenburg, passed away in November 2018, the hunger to revisit Bikini Bottom still seems unwavering, especially since the recent controversial Super Bowl LIII's halftime show featured footage of a SpongeBob episode as a tribute to him. Regarding the latter, "Frozen" has seen a resurgence in national interest, particularly from the film's sequel's teaser trailer back on Feb. 13 which was viewed 116.4 million times within the first day alone. Speaking of which, "Frozen II" is planned for release in cinemas on Nov. 22, hence Proctors would be able to take advantage of the expected holiday family crowds too.
While both "The SpongeBob Musical" and Disney's "Frozen" are also commencing their national tours at Proctors and are being teched there, the remainder of Proctors' lineup are acclaimed productions, having either received multiple Tony Awards or nominations throughout their runs so far.
The winter season will feature "The Band's Visit" from Dec. 31, 2019 to Jan. 5, 2020 which has won 10 Tony Awards and a Grammy, and was based on a same-named 2007 Israeli film. Set in a mundane Israeli desert town devoid of music and excitement, a local cafe owner ends up taking in a band of lost Egyptian musicians who then start to reignite passion and love in the air.
While it may seem too early to plan for Valentine's Day next year, Proctors offers "Fiddler on the Roof" from Feb. 18 to
23, 2020 as an evening-out option. Revolving around a Jewish father of five daughters in 1905-era Imperial Russia, he begins to wrestle with his daughters' headstrong behaviors, and outside influences that threaten his traditions, including the Tsar who wants to evict Jews from their homes.
The remaining three productions are "SUMMER: The Donna Summer Musical" from Mar. 24 to 29, 2020; "Hello Dolly!" from May 5 to 10, 2020; and "Dear Evan Hansen" from June 9 to 14, 2020. The first two are based on real-life late talents: Donna Summer who rocked the music charts in the late 20th century, and director/choreographer Gower Champion who won eight Tony Awards for some of his works from 1949 to 1981. The last production chronicles the story of a teenager with social anxiety disorder who struggles to fit in with his peers.
There are also two subscriber exclusives: "The Play That Goes Wrong" from Apr. 7 to 12, 2020; and "Cats!" from Apr. 28 to May 3, 2020.
Capital Repertory Theatre
"Lobby Hero," a story about a 27-year-old security guard who gets caught in a local murder investigation, will commence the REP 2019-2020 season, staying in town from Sept. 27 to Oct. 20, 2019.
Relive how radio once dominated the world as the primary medium of communication with "It's a Wonderful Life: Live from WVL Radio Theater" from Nov. 22 to Dec. 22, 2019. The stage will light up as a live, 1940s radio broadcast, where voice characters, sound effects and music will convene. The audience would also be transported with the next two productions: "Your Best One" from Jan. 17 to Feb. 9, 2020, and "The Irish and How They Got That Way" from Mar. 6 to Apr. 5, 2020, which are set in Manhattan and an Irish pub respectively.
The season would conclude with the nostalgic music-comedy hit, "Sister Act" from July 10 to Aug. 16, 2020 which is based on the 1992 same-named film which had starred Whoopi Goldberg. Lounge singer Deloris Van Cartier is forcibly placed in protective custody in a convent after witnessing a murder, in order to evade possible assassins who wish to hush her. Her vivacious disposition would clash with the nuns but she starts warming up to them after realizing she could improve the all-nun choir.

My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 17 Review: The Hellish Todoroki Family
A standout My Hero Academia gives Deku and Bakugo a first-hand look at their new role model's complex life during a very awkward dinner.
By Daniel Kurland | July 24, 2021 |

This My Hero Academia review contains spoilers.
My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 17
"I'm never at that dinner table. I know the reason why so well that it hurts."
Family has always been a major component of My Hero Academia and a driving force for many characters, albeit in many different capacities. Everything that Midoriya, Uraraka, or Iida do all boil down to their family in one way or another, but Shoto Todoroki is a prominent exception where his family and the dysfunctional dynamic that's festered over the years is a crucial part of his character.
The Todoroki family has improved in several regards, but Endeavor's relationship is far from healthy. There's a lot of potential behind any episode of My Hero Academia that largely just spends time with a character's family in a bottle episode-like structure, but it's by far the most appealing with the Todoroki clan. The anime is able to confront many of these background issues head-on and as the episode's title teases, "The Hellish Todoroki Family" is far from a glimpse into a picture perfect family.
Back in the days when three-episode DVD packages would be released, "The Hellish Todoroki Family" would be bundled with "Shoto Todoroki: Origin" and "His Start," as this episode very much feels like a complimentary response to those other installments. There's endless promise in a My Hero Academia episode that allows the Todoroki family to ricochet off each other and allow years of pent-up hostility to come to the surface. This plot hits even harder when innocent Midoriya and belligerent Bakugo are added to the equation, almost like two contrasting audience surrogates. "The Hellish Todoroki Family" doesn't disappoint in this area and that's a lot of predictable behavior.
Bakugo's hair-trigger temper over every little detail and piece of intimacy that's offered towards him is satisfying, but so is Midoriya's overly analytical breakdown of the simple dinner that's presented in front of him. Fuyumi, Shoto's older sister, is also extremely precious and needs to be kept safe at all costs. This episode doesn't hide that it's a showcase for Shoto and the rest of his family, but Midoriya and Bakugo are still in fine form. It's a constructive development that builds off of the duo's time in Endeavor's Hero Agency and how they're being shown both sides of this conflicted hero's life.
Midoriya and Bakugo fall into a groove where they've grown accustomed to "chasing after Endeavor" and viewing each of his continual accomplishments as benchmarks for themselves. This acceptance into Endeavor's home and with his family opens their eyes to how not every aspect of this hero is necessarily healthy to strive towards. It's actually kind of poetic when Midoriya tells Shoto that he doesn't need to feel compelled to forgive his father just because he's his father. He reiterates that Shoto is such a generous individual that his difficulty to forgive Endeavor shouldn't be viewed as a deficiency that he needs to rise above, but should actually be proof of his critical feelings.
"The Hellish Todoroki Family" utilizes an effective structure that juxtaposes Endeavor's Pro Hero life with his personal life when he's off the clock. Memories of the two begin to blur the lines between them. There's a sad irony in that Endeavor has recently come across a major villain conspiracy with the Meta Liberation War manifesto, yet it seems like he'd more readily take on these brainwashed lunatics than go on a vacation with his family. Endeavor is plagued by nightmares, not of All For One, Shigaraki, or Destro, but rather dinner with his family. This vulnerability on Endeavor's part has always been present with his character, but "The Hellish Todoroki Family" really unpacks it in a way where the details seem like they'll be significant for the rest of the season.
The most obvious example of this is the missing Todoroki sibling that's been teased in incredibly small doses over the course of the anime, but this episode helps expand in this area where it feels like a showdown between this neglected outcast Todoroki child and either Shoto, or Endeavor, is inevitable. A lot of attention has been placed on the unique fire and ice Quirks that exist in the Todoroki family and so to go by this rubric it'd definitely be a fascinating reveal–and one that makes sense–if Dabi were actually a disgruntled Toya Todoroki.
My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 16 Review: Long Time No See, Selkie
By Daniel Kurland
My Hero Academia Season 5 Episode 15 Review: One Thing at a Time
"The Hellish Todoroki Family" amounts to a great character study that's a welcome change of pace that still features plenty of action. If there's any problem with the episode it's that it could reduce some of the Todoroki family-based flashbacks in favor of more time at the concluding dinner, which could stand to be longer. Otherwise, "The Hellish Todoroki Family" excels and mixes together many of the things that My Hero Academia does best.
During one of the many moments of training within this episode, Endeavor tells his trio of star students, "Don't let the fatigue carry over into the next day." He wants them to not give up or be too hard on themselves so that they start the next day at a disadvantage. It's perhaps unintentionally eloquent on Endeavor's part and while it seems like it will become words that his pupils will live by, he has to also apply them to himself otherwise he'll never get anywhere. The heroes in My Hero Academia have become accustomed to a lot of success and with darkness on the horizon it's never been a better time to understand that tomorrow is another day.

This is the last day to enroll in internship for Winter quarter.
UCSC Environmental Studies students intern for a variety of local, state, national and international organizations. These organizations and businesses include educational, agricultural, non-profit, for-profit, government and non-government internship positions. Many of our more than 120 internships can be found on our Available Internships page.
Internships allow students to apply the concepts and theories they learn about in academic settings to workplace settings. As an intern, you can see how people relate with one another, test out the theories learned in classes, and observe the inner workings of the work environment in a myriad of different fields and disciplines. Work done outside the classroom brings new depth and meaning to the work done inside the classroom, and enlightens the student to the importance of their academic work. Internships can be as much about finding out what you really like as encountering what it is you do not like.
Many students look at internships as a way to confirm their interest in a given field or discipline. An internship is a way to "taste" a type of work before you've committed to graduate school or working in a full-time position. Internship experiences can help you hone in on your area(s) of interest and focus on the type of work for which you are best suited for and work that you find most interesting.
The Environmental Studies Internship Office is committed to providing students with the necessary resources for finding the best placement for each student.
Interested? You can start the process by communicating directly with the agency, or emailing our office. You can also drop by the office during the hours posted if you would like a more thorough explanation. We placed students in more than 400 internships this past year. And, perhaps we have one waiting for you too!
Interested in providing an internship opportunity to UCSC Students? Please fill out the link here!
You can also follow us on Twitter for updates and announcements!


Got a question about Wayfinders? Here are a few answers.
Wayfinders is for anyone who feels it would be valuable to take a deep breath, look carefully at their own gifts and circumstances, and make a deliberate choice about where to head next. It's especially helpful for people in transition, such as empty-nesters, recent retirees, people who are new in town. Instead of just drifting into your new life, you'll take some deliberate time to ask, "So what comes next?" and set off with excitement and purpose.
The program has two parts: a weekend retreat, and 8 regular meetings.
What are my most important gifts, passions, and experiences?
Where am I on the path of life right now? Is this a time to go for a dream? To rest? To establish a habit? To conquer a difficult "to-do"?
Where is my best self calling me right now?
Out of this discernment each teammate chooses a goal to work on for the duration of the team, and creates a detailed action plan to achieve it.
Then your team will have 8 meetings, scheduled at the team's convenience, every week or two. In between meetings, you'll be working on steps toward your goal. In the meetings, teammates report in on their progress, ask for ideas, brainstorm around obstacles, get encouragement when things are hard, and celebrate when good things get done.
The only thing teammates need to have in common is a willingness to help each other take a few more steps to become their truest and highest selves.
Wayfinders do more than they think possible because they use the greatest resource we've been given….each other!
How much does being on a Wayfinders team cost?
My goal is to make this program available to as many people as possible. I charge no fee to train and launch a Wayfinders team.
There is a $30 materials cost for the retreat. Usually the retreat is non-residential (everyone goes home to their own bed at night), and to keep costs down we potluck for meals.
For groups that invite me to come at a distance (more than 30 miles from Bath, Maine) I ask for travel expenses.
I have no idea what my goal will be. Do I have to have to have a goal in mind to sign up?
Absolutely not. Keep an open mind, and give yourself time. Your teammates, as well, will help lead you to a goal that rises from your particular gifts and circumstances. Sometimes we see each other more clearly than we can see ourselves.
What happens after the team is over?
During the last meeting I'll give the team several models that others have found work well. Many teams continue to meet regularly – some for years. Others disband, having accomplished what they'd like. Others re-configure with new members. Some teammates pair off and become long-term accountability buddies.
Whether or not you continue on a team, Wayfinders gives you a technique you can use for the rest of your life.
Reach out with any questions here. I love questions.

Leading Far-Right Holocaust Denier Says: It Ain't Us
By Jeffrey Goldberg
I just called Mark Weber, the director of the Institute for Historical Review, the leading Holocaust denial organization in America, to ask him if he knew James Von Brunn, and to find out what he thought of the shooting at the Holocaust Museum. Weber said that the shooting is a "terrible and stupid and criminal thing, and any reasonable person would condemn it." He said he knew of Von Brunn because "people have sent me things from him, but that's all I know about it."
I asked him if his far-right organization, which sponsors conferences and magazines that deny key aspects of the Holocaust, has created an atmosphere in which white supremacists feel compelled to attack Jewish targets. He got angry and said "every movement and organization has insane people in it. What was this guy's point? I can't even figure that out."
I suggested that one point might be to drive away tourists who hope to learn about the Holocaust but who don't want to endanger their families while doing so. Weber said he was opposed to the creation and maintenance of the Holocaust Museum, because "obviously this museum doesn't exist as an expression of altruistic concern for humanity but as an expression of the enormous power of the Jewish community." But he said he would never countenance violence against it. He did say, however, that it does not depict history accurately; for instance, he said, gas chambers never existed.

Chance  ist das zehnte Album der Manfred Mann's Earth Band, das 1980 veröffentlicht wurde. Das Albumcover zeigt eine Adaption des Plakats Strandstole (Liegestühle) des dänischen Künstlers Ole Kortzau.

Das Album
Der Sänger Chris Thompson hatte mit dem vorangegangenen Album Angel Station die Band verlassen, um sich auf die Arbeit mit seiner eigenen Band Night zu konzentrieren. Manfred Mann suchte daraufhin einen neuen Sänger in einer Reihe von Sessions, in denen u. a. Paul Young, Huey Lewis, Graham Bonnett von Rainbow, Pete French von Atomic Rooster sowie auch der spätere AC/DC-Sänger Brian Johnson vorsangen. Letztlich entschied sich Mann aber dafür, das Album mit einer Mischung aus Session-/Studiomusikern und Earth Band aufzunehmen. Chris Thompson stand trotz seines Abschieds für Aufnahmen, wenn auch nicht im gewohnten Umfang, als auch die anschließende Tour wieder zur Verfügung. Der Gitarrist Steve Waller und der Bassist Pat King, die beide ebenfalls schon auf vorangegangenen Alben der Earth Band angehörten, sowie John Lingwood, der neu den erkrankten Schlagzeuger Geoff Britton ersetzte, unterstützten die Aufnahmen als Earth Band. Sie alle präsentierten das Album dann auch auf der gleichnamigen Chance Tour 1981. Das Earth Band-Gründungsmitglied Mick Rogers arbeitete für die Aufnahmen zum ersten Mal seit 1975 wieder mit Mann zusammen. Er kehrte später auch ganz zur Band zurück. Als Produzenten traten Mann selbst sowie Trevor Rabin in Erscheinung. Rabin übernahm auch einige Gitarrenparts im Studio. Thompson sang drei Titel komplett ein und teilte sich bei einem weiteren den Hauptteil mit einem weiteren Sänger. Die restlichen Gesangsparts wurden von verschiedenen Sängern übernommen. Unter anderem singt Mann selbst den Titel Adolescent Dream, was eher eine Ausnahme im Katalog der Earth Band darstellt.

Rezeption
In Band 1 seiner Buchreihe Rock beschreibt das Magazin eclipsed das Album als . ecplipsed vergibt für das Werk die dritthöchste Kategorie Qualitätskauf. Das Album landet in der Gesamtschau aller Manfred Mann's Earth Band Alben hier auf Platz 9.

Bruce Eder schreibt auf allmusic über die . Das Album erhält dreieinhalb von fünf möglichen Sternen.

Beide Singleauskopplungen aus dem Album waren kommerziell wenig erfolgreich. Das als zweite Single aus dem Album veröffentlichte Bruce-Springsteen-Cover For You erhielt 2005 aber durch das Hamburger DJ-Team The Disco Boys neue Verwendung, wobei auch längere Passagen der Earth Band-Aufnahme zum Einsatz kommen. Der Song wurde unter The Disco Boys Feat. Manfred Mann's Earth Band veröffentlicht und war erstmals 2005 in den Charts. Zwei Jahre später folgte eine Wiederveröffentlichung. Von 2007 bis 2010 war die Single immer wieder in den deutschen Charts und brachte es auf insgesamt 93 Chartwochen. Sie erreichte als höchste Position Platz 17. Ende 2010 wurde For You in dieser Version mit Platin ausgezeichnet.

Stayed only for one night. The room was great with nice decor and impressed by the old player in the room. Wifi signal was poor in the room. Check-in service should be improved. Everything else was great including check-out.
We enjoyed our stay. The rooms are in modern buildings behind the old hotel. We had a standard room which was generous in terms of size. Nice to have a kettle and cups and saucers. We didn't eat in the up market restaurant so can't comment but the tables on the terrace looked welcoming.
Very large and clean room. Only wish it had a fan or air conditioner, even in June.


Both my main dev-pc and my Mac Air Windows installs are Windows 8.1 upgraded to Windows 10, and for a while I've been putting off upgrading the 666 engine, and Dominium to build from Visual Studio 2015. Having updated it recently, I decided it was time to ditch the 'upgraded' Windows installations, and go for clean Windows 10 installs. It was also an ideal time to do a clean OSX El Capitan install on the Mac Air. And, heck, why not upgrade my 2009 Mac Mini file server to El Capitan at the same time (which is usually fraught with software peril with things stopping working after an upgrade).
For a long time, I've been running out of storage on the Mac Mini – it has a 128Gb SSD split into 40Gb for OSX, and 88Gb for Data – which holds my Perforce SCM server, amongst other things. So, why not upgrade the SSD at the same time? I bought a 240Gb SSD, and then discovered that I can remove the internal DVD drive, get a micro-SATA adapter, and fit an additional drive inside the Mac Mini! Awesome… then the 128Gb drive becomes the OSX install, and the 240Gb becomes the internal data drive. Sorted.
Wiping the Dev PC and installing Windows 10 clean was no bother, as expected, and oddly it 'feels' cleaner than the upgraded Windows 8.1 install did… I can't say why, probably psychological 🙂 Building and running Dominium was more of a trial however… installing VS2015 and building the main project left me with a plethora of missing DLL's for some reason (even after upgrading all the SDK's to build with VS2015). It turns out I still need the VS2010 redistributables, so some internal dependency needs to be resolved there. Of course, simply installing the redistributables doesn't cut the mustard! I had to remove VS2015, install VS2010, install VS2015 again, and then remove VS2010 leaving behind the redistributables and the VS2010 'pre-requisites'… fun.
Next, the Mac Air… frequent readers may be aware of my repeated whinging about the Intel HD 5000 graphics driver under Windows 10 that keeps crashing, almost every 20 seconds sometimes, for which Intel will assume no responsibility. When it crashes, it whinges about the 'Windows 8(R)' driver, so I presumed the Windows 10 install did not 'take' so well, even after updating the Bootcamp 6 drivers provided by Apple, or using the latest Intel HD 5000 'Windows 10' drivers. The hope was to clean install Windows 10 and 'kiss goodbye' to this issue. Ahah.
Normally, when I do this kind of exercise, I do disk images of everything 'just in case' – but I've found from past (painful) experience they rarely work, and when you restore them they just fail, or corrupt, or go sideways in some interesting and hard to fathom fashion. So now I ensure a) all data is in the cloud, or on a NAS b) I catalogue every single application I installed, and ensure I have the licenses / keys to hand.
Wiping the Mac Air and installing El Capitan was cathartic, I can tell you. I then Boot camp'd it, and hit snag number one. Windows 10 wouldn't recognise the bootcamp partition, even after formatting it itself. Arg. I google this and find it 'just happens'… and the fix? Do you want to know the fix? Insert the USB Drive with the Windows 10 installation into the OTHER USB port. Of course. Of course. Obvious, when you think about it. ?. ??. ????. After doing this, Windows 10 happily recognised the Bootcamp partition and the magic happened.
After installing, guess what happened? Go on, guess, you can guess can't you? Yep, you guessed. The Intel HD graphics driver crashed on the first run, once again whinging about the 'Windows 8(R)' driver. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaarg! There is no excuse Intel! Your drivers for your hardware are shambolic!
Post fume, I setup VS2015 (from the lessons learned on the Dev PC it went smoothly this time) and then went to download Perforce 'p4sandbox' – for those unfamiliar with Perforce, this allows you to replicate your P4 server locally, so you can use source control whilst offline – vital for a laptop where I do most of my dev work on the train. I go to www.perforce.com, and cannot find 'p4sandbox'… indeed 'Perforce' is now christened 'Helix'… but despite extensive searching, I cannot find a download that does the same as p4sandbox. Their doc's still exist, helpfully telling me how I can use it, but the download is gone.
Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaarg! If only I'd imaged the original install I could rescue the executable. Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaarg!
Taking a break from this madness, I decide to tackle the Mac Mini upgrade. Oh boy, what a mistake.
4. Don't use a Dremel to modify the existing black plastic DVD chassis to accomodate the micro-SATA connector and SSD drive board (as the SSD won't fit in the Mac Mini in its original case due to the offset caused by the micro-SATA connector).
Egads, I could scream. I have tried every possible way to upgrade the existing install to use the new 2nd drive, or indeed any drive. None of them worked. Disk Utility, .dmg files, Carbon Cloner, .sparseimage files, direct cloning of partitions, the list goes on.
1. Clone existing 128Gb drive to a new 128Gb drive (connected as a 2nd drive via the micro-SATA connector).
This worked, and allowed me to boot from the clone, proving the micro-SATA works as expected. I then upgraded this clone to El Capitan, and had to figure out why Perforce server no longer worked – due to the /usr/local/bin folder being replaced during the upgrade, wiping the p4d executable from existence. After chasing down the correct version of the Perforce daemon, all worked as before which was good news! El Capitan, success!
2. Move the 'Data' volume on the upgraded drive to the 240Gb SSD.
So now this upgraded drive becomes the new 'master' boot volume, and I add in the 240Gb SSD as the data volume, and clone the current 'Data' volume to it from the recovery partition.
I then rename the original 'Data' volume to '_Data', preserving it in case something goes horribly wrong.
I reboot, expecting to see the joy of El Capitan powering my new server, with the data in its spacious new home.
Instead I spend 23 minutes watching OSX log in, and painfully set up every single service in excruciatingly slowness of epic proportion. Something is wrong.
That's what I wanted to do… I have tried backing up to an image, restoring the image to the new drive, or booting with just the new drive and installing El Capitan clean – none of it works, always I am left with an unbootable drive. So, it must be the new drive, right?
Under Windows (via the Dev PC) I can format, partition, verify, check, repair, scan, even do performance testing. The new drive is fine.
So despite the earlier evidence, it must surely be the micro-SATA connector, right?
Plug in the original drive (or another known working drive) via the micro-SATA connector and they all work fine.
Ok, so now I decide to ditch the 240Gb upgrade, stick with Yosemite, and just move the 'Data' volume from the original 128Gb drive, to the other known working '128Gb' drive. That'll work, right?
Now it won't boot again. Further, it won't even boot from the recovery partition, or the El Capitan installer USB drive.
Despite many attempts, every possible combination of ways and means, I reach the conclusion that alas, I cannot have a 2nd SATA drive connected and do what I want. I can only presume it's power related, and that despite many others being able to do a 2nd drive upgrade with a 2009 Mac Mini, my one is the only one to roll off Apple's production line that simply cannot handle it.
Ok, so now I clone the original 128Gb drive partitions to the 240Gb drive, and just boot with that drive only. At least I will have gained some more space.
Tether. End of. Short of throwing the entire machine out of the window (not particularly effective in a bungalow I'll grant you), I have no more options to try. Nor patience to bother. I have replaced the original 128Gb SSD in the chassis, and left the damned machine in bits strewn across my desk. Let that be a lesson to it.
Shiny clean install of Windows 10 on my dev pc.
Shiny clean install of El Capitan on my Mac Air.
Shiny clean install of Windows 10 on my Mac Air – that still crashes the Intel HD 5000 graphics driver.
However, I have garnered some useful info on my available HDD and SSD drives, which is quite surprising. To avoid this blog becoming a mega-epic (it isn't already??) I'll do a separate post, as it's worth dedicating a post to.
Cut to the Chase Already!
As the above precluded any coding effort, I've had plenty of time to think about coding, and my next efforts will be in locking the drive systems to allow travel according to their capabilities (ie. FTL drives can't be used to dock, and so on).
Also, book-wise, sadly the full page ad in SciFi Now led to zero sales of the book, and zero additional web traffic to this hallowed portal 🙁 Ho hum. It is what it is. Maybe one day, who knows.

Q: What version of VBA are used in Excel 2003? What is the difference between this version of VBA and VBA 7.0? I am mainly working on a migration project to migrate Excel 2003 to Excel 2010.
One of the common problem I have is the error message: unable to compile a hidden module.
To understand the underlying cause of the issue, I want to know what version of VBA is in Excel 2003 and what changes have been introduced to it in Excel 2010.
There is a similar question in SO but did not cover Excel 2003

A: To determine the type of VBA your Excel 2003 has go into the editor, select Help -> About Microsoft Visual Basic...
On my machine it's listing Excel 2003 with VBA 6.5. The changes are explained here. They primary difference I see is that any (x86) API calls may need to be formed differently.
In my experience migrating to Excel 2010, I have had no compatibility issues of bringing old code forward. All of the problems have been from missing references.
Make sure to unlock your VBA and see if there are any missing references on your test machine. Hopefully, that's your only problem.
Good luck.

An Interview with WiseOceans… Zoe Stevenson from Kent Wildlife Trust
Home » News & Blogs » WiseOceans Careers - An Interview with WiseOceans » An Interview with WiseOceans… Zoe Stevenson from Kent Wildlife Trust
This week we are back on home turf with Zoe Stevenson of Kent Wildlife Trust. Zoe has experienced the difficulty of getting a stable job within the conservation industry and has consequently been all over the world, fulfilling a variety of different short term roles. Despite being disheartening at times, she believes this is what has given her the confidence, ability and experience to land her current position. She advises not to sweat the small things and throwing in a marine related pun here and there always goes down well… A girl of our own heart!
Name: Zoe Stevenson
Job Title: Guardians of the Deep Project Officer
Organisation: Kent Wildlife Trust
What inspired you to pursue a career in marine conservation?
The ocean was my first love. I honestly can't remember a time when I wasn't fascinated by it, so studying marine biology at university was the natural choice for me.
After graduating, despite a few incredible volunteer research positions, I realised that I enjoyed talking to people about the sea more than I enjoyed studying it. It was a surprise to me, but environmental education has taken me all over the world, so getting involved with it is not something I regret. And I still get involved in research whenever I can. Things like National Whale and Dolphin Watch for the Sea Watch Foundation and other citizen science schemes are becoming commonplace so it's not difficult to do.
The ocean is so big and diverse that spending my working life protecting, studying, and teaching people about it means I will never have a dull day at work.
What steps did you take/are you taking to achieve your career goals?
I tell people that my aim is to "save the dolphins" which is quite vague really. At the moment educating as many people as possible about the importance of our oceans, and inspiring the scientists of the future seems the best way to do that, so environmental education is a perfect fit.
Working with Kent Wildlife Trust on their Guardians of the Deep project puts me in a fantastic position to help build a network of inspired marine champions all around the Kent coast, as well as encouraging children to get interested in the ocean, hopefully inspiring the ocean scientists of the future.
In a more practical way, I recently trained to be a BDMLR Marine Mammal Medic, so I can assist in any strandings and seal rescues in my area. That qualification has been on my wish list for a while, I was so happy when I got handed my certificate!
How did you land your current job/position?
I worked hard and stuck at it! Since graduating from Swansea University I've had a very varied career, from wildlife guiding on the West coast of Scotland, to environmental education in America and what feels like everything in between.
The downside of environmental education is that most of it is very dependent on external funding, which means that short term contracts are the norm. Before I got my current position with Kent Wildlife Trust the longest contract I had was 10 months, and there was a lot of volunteer positions in there too. That meant a lot of going back home and working casual jobs while looking for work that I really wanted to do. There were times when I was tempted just to go back to university for a bit of stability, or settle for a less than ideal job, but ultimately I knew I'd never be happy at work unless I was doing marine environmental education.
I'm grateful now for all the different jobs I've had. It's given me a wide perspective on how different groups look at marine issues, and the knowledge and skills I have gained from all those different positions made me confident I would be able to take on the responsibilities of my current position.
Which part of your job do you enjoy the most?
Getting paid to be on the beach! It's not quite like that, but sometimes it does feel like it. I love being outdoors, and the fact that I get to enjoy and share with others one of my favourite environments during work hours is an absolute dream. It makes all the desk time I have to put in worth it.
Are there aspects of your position which make you feel that you are really 'making a difference'?
Sometimes talking to the public can get frustrating, as you seem to say the same thing over and over to different people. You wonder if any of it is sinking in at all, but every so often you will see in someone's eyes when it just clicks, and that's the moment I work for.
Children are so empathetic about the natural world that working with them is a real joy. Recently I was teaching a group of children about plastic pollution in our oceans and one little girl suggested that we create a 'plastic magnet' to scoop all of the litter out of the ocean. I really hope she becomes an engineer when she grows up because it is ideas like that will really change the future of our oceans.
What do you know now that you wish you knew when you were starting out?
Don't stress over the wording of emails! I know this sounds a bit weird, but when I think about the amount of time I spent worrying over things like choosing between "I was wondering" or "I am writing to enquire" I have to laugh. It really doesn't matter that much, so long as you are polite and to the point.
Are there any skills you never thought you would need but did?
Comedic timing! When presenting to the public, or giving a training session, a well-placed joke doesn't go amiss. Comedic genius isn't necessary, but a good marine related pun never fails to go down well. Try not to get too tide down by a specific joke though, it's better to just go with the flow and decide in the moment what will work.
What advice would you give to budding marine conservationists?
Try and become comfortable with public speaking. You may never have to speak to thousands at once, but chances are, no matter what discipline of marine conservation you go into, at some point you are going to have to speak to a group of people. Things like debating societies, or volunteering to present a group project in school, can really help boost your confidence. I competed at Speech and Drama festivals right up until I went to university, so thankfully speaking to crowds is second nature to me now.
What is your favourite marine creature and why?
I love all cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoise), but my absolute favourite has to be the Hector's dolphin, one of the world's smallest dolphins. I spent two months in New Zealand helping a Ph.D student study them and they completely stole my heart. For such a small animal they are incredibly charismatic and it's impossible not to develop a soft spot for them. The fact that they are endangered makes my time with them that much more precious, and I really hope that conservation efforts to save them will be successful so others can fall in love with them the way I did.
What is your most unforgettable moment in the sea?
At my first day of work in the previously mentioned job in New Zealand, I accidently dropped the most expensive piece of kit over the side of the boat! Talk about a terrible first day! Luckily a diver found it a few days later so I hadn't single-handedly ruined the last 2 months of a three year research project, but I don't think I will be forgetting that moment in a hurry.
Thanks Zoe, your infectious enthusiasm cannot fail to inspire the next generation of marine conservationists.
Don't forget to sign up to our weekly job alert emails and keep an eye on our Wise Work pages so you don't miss your dream opportunity in more marine conservation.


I don't mean to sound seditious here, but I have a rebellious plan to combat the ills that many corporations are perpetrating in the name of fighting grime and germs. My main gripe is about the environmental pollutants from cleaning and personal care products that we wash down our drains and into our water systems, resulting in situations like the chemical triclosan (a pesticide added to many products as an antibacterial agent) being found in dolphins.
So the simple plan is to encourage everyone to use baking soda in any of these 51 applications. Besides showing kindness to aquatic life, we can also protect ourselves from the array of toxins in household cleaning products. Conventional cleansers can expose us to multiple chemicals linked to asthma, cancer and other documented health problems.
Baking soda also makes a perfect stand-in for many personal care products, which are adding their own twist to the toxic tangle of pollutants and personal health (mainly in the form of synthetic fragrance (and it's almost all synthetic), sodium laurel sulfate, and parabens).
Add 2 heaping tablespoons baking soda (along with your regular dish detergent) to the dish water to help cut grease and foods left on dishes, pots and pans. For cooked-on foods, let them soak in the baking soda and detergent with water first, then use dry baking soda on a clean damp sponge or cloth as a scratch-less scouring powder. Using a dishwasher? Try these energy saving tips.
Sprinkle the cutting board with baking soda, scrub, rinse. For how to more thoroughly clean your cutting board.
Place a box of baking soda on the shelf to keep the closet smelling fresh, then follow these tips to organize your closet in an eco-friendly way.

Q: How do closures work in runpy? I get unexpected behaviour when I try to run methods defined in a file loaded using the runpy module. The methods do not see any variables (including imported modules) defined outside of that method. Here is how I am doing it:
#test.py
import runpy
env = runpy.run_path('test', {'y':'world'})
env['fn']()

~
#test
import re

print(re.compile(r'^hello', re.IGNORECASE).sub('', "hello world"))
x = "hello"
print(x)
print(y)

def fn():
    try:
        print(re.compile(r'^hello', re.IGNORECASE).sub('', "hello world"))
    except:
        print("No re")
    try:
        print(x)
    except:
        print("No x")
    try:
        print(y)
    except:
        print("No y")

My expected output of test.py would be:
 world
hello
world
 world
hello
world

because fn would form a closure for re, x and y.
However, instead I get:
 world
hello
world
No re
None
None

It looks like re isn't defined within fn even though it should be with normal closure behaviour. x and y are even stranger because they appear to be defined but set to None.
Why is this and how do closures work with runpy? How can I achieve normal behaviour such that fn can 'see' outside variables?

A: OK, this is a curiosity of the way Python handles modules, which I know about but don't fully understand. I've come across it while working on IPython, where it's explained in a comment.
When Python runs a module, it produces a module object, the attributes of which are the global names in the module. When the module falls out of scope and is being destroyed, these attributes are set to None. Code which was defined in the function then sees these as the globals, as you found. You can demonstrate this by adding def g(): return globals() to your file, then calling env["g"]().
I don't know if there's a way round this with runpy. IPython uses some complicated code to reuse a module object for running other files, caching copies of its __dict__ to keep the references therein alive. Have a look at the magic_run function if you're interested.

Frommer's Vienna day by day
3 THE BEST NEIGHBORHOOD WALKS: Stephansdom, Belvedere, Schottenring & Alsergrund, The Museum Quarter
Maggie Childs FrommerMedia ePub
The controversial Haas Haus, in the heart of the UNESCO–protected old city.Stephansdom QuarterThis is a walk to suit the whole family. It takes you right to the historic heart of Vienna, to the foundations of ancient Roman Vindobona, and to some of the city's oldest inns and churches. Explore the atmospheric maze of medieval alleyways surrounding Stephansdom, and enjoy the chichi shops of the Graben—as well as the best apple strudel in town. START: Stephansdom (U-Bahn 1/3 Stephansplatz).❶ ★★★ Stephansdom. See p 11, ❸.❷ ★★ Haas Haus. Created by Hans Hollein in the 1980s, this curvaceous building of polished granite, concrete, and glass, which houses a boutique hotel on the 6th and 7th floors, is one of Vienna's most controversial pieces of modern architecture. Love it or hate it, it offers tremendous views of the Stephansdom from the rooftop bar (6th floor) and restaurant (7th floor). Stock-im-Eisenplatz. U-Bahn 1/3 (Stephansplatz).❸ ★★ Graben. This broad, pedestrianized shopping street was once the town moat, hence the name Graben (ditch). It later became a marketplace and is now one of the city's finest boulevards. All the buildings date from the baroque, 19th-century, or Belle Epoque eras, and many still bear their K.u.K. (Kaiserlich und Königlich—Imperial and Royal) warrant. The exuberant baroque Pestsäule (Plague Column) in the middle of the street was erected to commemorate Vienna's deliverance from the plague of 1679. Graben. U-Bahn 1/3 (Stephansplatz).

The Best Times to Go
The best time to visit is from May to October. May, when the lilac and chestnut trees are in bloom, marks the start of Heuriger season (wine taverns connected to vineyards). June to August, when the days are long and hot, is ideal for lazy afternoons in Vienna's extensive parks; for swimming and sunbathing at the city's beaches; and for river trips and watersports on the Danube. However, Vienna can get very crowded at the height of summer, especially during school vacations. September marks the start of the theater season as all the major venues launch their new programs and, in October, the city's new wines vineyards are toasted in the city bars and country Heurigen. Another popular time is Christmas, when snow has often fallen, festive decorations and lights illuminate the city, and the streets are filled with stalls selling roasted chestnuts, hot punch, and Glühwein (mulled wine). Many visitors come to shop at the Christmas markets or to enjoy the city's celebrated New Year's Eve festivities. Whenever you choose to visit, there's always a superb choice of theater and music, and over 80 museums to provide entertainment for all the family, whatever the weather.
1 THE BEST FULL-DAY, TWO & THREE-DAY TOURS
Vienna's fiaker (horse and buggy) horses.The Best in One DayWhere better to start exploring Vienna than at its historic heart? On this tour you can soak up the architecture and lifestyle of imperial Vienna; admire the Stephansdom (St. Stephen's Cathedral and national emblem of Austria); discover the best schnitzels in town; dabble in Vienna's musical identity; and eat at one of the finest restaurants in the world . . . all in a single day. START: Hofburg (U-Bahn 3 Herrengasse).❶ ★★★ Hofburg. Home to the powerful Habsburg dynasty, which ruled Austria for 6 centuries, the grandiose Hofburg buildings provide a remarkable record of Vienna's imperial lifestyle and architecture at the end of the 19th century. Don't be put off by the daunting tally of 18 wings, 19 courtyards, and 2,600 rooms. This rambling complex has been neatly packaged into clusters of manageable attractions. The Sisi Museum vividly portrays the moving life of Vienna's beloved empress, Elisabeth of Bavaria (1837–98). With a collection of her personal effects and accessories, such as gloves and a parasol, visitors get an intimate picture of the empress. There is also a room dedicated to the details of her assassination. The Imperial Apartments include the study, waiting room, and audience room of Sisi's husband, the Emperor Franz Joseph I (1848–1916). Make sure you don't miss the Schatzkammer (located in the Treasury, p 30), a glittering hoard of Habsburg jewels amassed over more than a millennium, and the celebrated Spanische Reitschule (Spanish Riding School), where magnificent Lipizzaner stallions perform dance-like exercises and formations.

Proposed goals must be compatible with DDI's mission and focus exclusively on observation and research activities, such as abstracting and analyzing data, drafting and revising manuscripts for publication, deliberating on methodological approaches, and the like. Visiting scholar appointments may not involve patient care of any kind. Excellent English language skills are a critical factor for a visiting scholar's ability to participate fully in the intellectual and observational opportunities of the DDI community. We regret that not all applicants to the Visiting Scholar Program will be accepted. Acceptance is contingent upon multiple considerations, including availability of space, identification and agreement of an appropriate sponsor, and approval of Fit for Duty requirements.

The sponsor is responsible for the day-to-day activities of the visiting scholar, serves as the main contact point for the visiting scholar during his/her time, and provides mentorship and guidance to the resources and networks available as part of the DDI. The sponsor works with the visiting scholar as an intellectual collaborator and meets regularly with the visiting scholar to help achieve his/her educational, observational and research goals. Access to a specific sponsor is subject to the provider's availability during the requested time frame.
Visiting scholar appointments are minimally 45 days. No visiting scholar appointment shall be longer than a 12-month period. Extensions of appointments are subject to approval by the DDI Executive Director and Director.
Visiting scholars with appointments of three months or longer are expected to draft a manuscript on Virginia Mason research/clinical results, ready for submission to a peer-reviewed journal, by the end of every third month of appointment. Following a research timeline, year-long visiting scholars are expected to lead authorship of at least three publications on Virginia Mason research/clinical results in peer-reviewed journals per year, co-authored with their sponsor or designee, and make a presentation on their research at a minimum of one national or international meeting.
All expenses, including, travel, housing, supplies, long-distance calls, photocopying, statistical consultations, secretarial services, transportation and parking related to the visiting scholar appointment must be sustained by and are the sole responsibility of the visiting scholar. The DDI does not provide any monetary funding or wages for visiting scholars. The visiting scholar must have provisions to meet all of their expenses during their time in Seattle.
A shared desk on site may be provided to visiting scholars as space allows. Space on site is not guaranteed.

Nora, Virginia
Local time Wednesday 4:13 AM
Nora is a small, unincorporated town in Dickenson County in the southern state of Virginia. In the 2000 US census, its population is listed as 566. Nora is built along one side of the McClure River.
Map of Nora, VA, USA
Notable residents
Coal mining has always been the primary business for the town and county. However, in recent years natural gas production has increased sharply because it has become possible to extract gas from the underlying Huron Shale formation. The Huron Shale deposit in this part of Virginia is called the Nora Field.
The site of the town was originally called "Mouth of Open Fork", and in 1882 it was briefly the county seat of the newly formed Dickenson County.
In 1904, a post office was built at Mouth of Open Fork, and the first postmaster, W. A. Dorton, arranged for the town and post office to be named for his wife Nora.
The Clinchfield Railroad, which was built to haul coal from the area, passes through Nora. Construction of the railroad was completed in 1915, when the last track was laid near Nora.
Up through the 1960s, Nora was known locally as "Tiger Town", because the tiny village had three taverns, resulting in frequent alcohol-induced brawls.
In 1977, the McClure River flooded and destroyed much of the town.
People associated with Nora include:
Margaret Binns (1884-1968). A native of Brooklyn, NY and a graduate of Vassar College, she came to Nora in 1915 on the first train to reach the town. She worked for 50 years as deaconess of the small Episcopal Church in Nora. Her home was a gathering place and recreation center for the children of the town.
Ralph Stanley, bluegrass musician, grew up in the nearby town of McClure, and he attended high school at Nora.
Kathleen Counts (1932 - 1983). Counts was a coal miner from Nora. In 1983 she was killed, along with six others, in a mine explosion at McClure. She is believed to be the first woman miner killed in the US.
Trazel Silvers was a basketball player at Ervinton High School, and he later played professionally, first for the Harlem Globetrotters, and then for several teams in Europe.

Review: John Dies At The End
Director: Don Coscarelli
Stars: Rob Mayes, Paul Giamatti, Chase Williamson
With a title like this, you'd be expecting something predictable, right? I mean, c'mon guys, don't spoil it for us. I sat down with this movie in a state of mild curiosity – it was a time-killer – and an hour or so later I was watching a man getting rescued from a burning trailer by a dog driving a car. A moment of self-awareness crept in, and I realised I was thoroughly enjoying myself.
It is also worth pointing out that, in the grand scheme of things, that counts as a spoiler just as much as the movie's title does. John Dies At The End makes a mockery out of predictability and surefooted reason. It is a celebration of the stranger notion, the taller tale. A small-scale picture with 'mania' tattooed on its ass. A dog driving a car is the least of your worries in this movie. Imagine the sensibilities of Quentin Dupieux (Rubber, Wrong) and James Gunn (Slither, Super) colliding, and you're probably still a little short of the mark.
Director Don Coscarelli has dabbled in such pleasing lunacy before, from the video-rental classic Phantasm through to millennial cult favourite Bubba Ho-Tep. Either his attachment or the word-of-mouth notoriety of the source material means that, yes, there are 'credible' names attached to this picture – Paul Giamatti is dependably excellent in a supporting role, as is The Wire's Glynn Turman. Clancy Brown also puts in a box-tickingly-mental spot of face-time. However (and rightly so for this kind of B-picture) the heavy-lifting goes to a small collective of unknowns.
So what is it about? Framed by narrator Dave (Chase Williamson) telling/confessing his far-out tale to reporter Arnie (Paul Giamatti) in a dimly lit Chinese restaurant, John Dies At The End is about a sly but hostile takeover of the planet by beings from an alternative universe via the medium of a mysterious drug referred to as 'soy sauce', which enables its users to see and experience things normally outside of perception, but which has other altogether more dangerous qualities. Yeah. Dave is assisted in his quest by a rag-tag bunch of twenty-somethings, including the titular John (Rob Mayes), whose state of being is quite frankly up for debate throughout the film.
The young actors are scrappy enough, as befits a film of this size and scope. Chase Williamson, upon whom most of the work rides, has an Emile Hirsch quality that carries the film, though his peers manage little of note. Fortunately, a crackling script that aims to entertain above all more than makes up for any shortcomings. John Dies At The End knows what it is and plays to those strengths. So it's quotable dialogue, off-the-wall scenarios and appropriately budgeted CG effects mixed in with practical ones. In the fine tradition of the B-movie not everything has to look good. It's daft fantasy; you're either going to go with it or you're not.
Whether you go with it will depend on your propensity for this variety of crazy. For instance, in the early stretches Dave and John find themselves trapped in a basement with an inhospitable creature built out of reanimated meat when suddenly the door handle at the top of the stairs is transformed into a penis. Yep, into a penis. You read that correctly. Dave looks at this lolling phallus and says, "We're never getting out of here". It's a schlocky, gonzo moment, and perhaps a good litmus test of whether this is for you. And whilst the movie doesn't rely on toilet humour by any means, if you can enjoy the funny here, you'll enjoy the funny elsewhere (which, generally speaking, is a grade or two smarter).
Yes, overall its a jumble of a movie, with plotting all over the place and the sense that sequences have been strung together loosely to accommodate one another, but one can't help but feel that this is entirely intentional. Small pretext is enough to present this compilation of crazy scenarios. Like flipping channels where every station is playing a different episode of The Outer Limits. And if the ending is comparatively underwhelming, well, that's likely due to the front end being so well loaded.
You can assign loftier aspirations to John Dies At The End if you want to. That it asks questions about the nature of truth and perception or what-not, but really, this is a rollercoaster ride out to elicit your enjoyment more than your contemplation. Phrases like 'cult classic' set my eyes rolling these days, they're batted about so regularly as to become meaningless. Coscarelli's whole modus operandi is 'cult classic'. Just add this to the list.
Does John die at the end? I wouldn't want to spoil any more surprises.
John Dies At The End is in selected UK cinemas from March.

The Corn Center for the Visual Arts was made possible by Columbus State's $100 million capital campaign. This world-class facility contains 14 different studio and work spaces for Department of Art students and faculty, including a fully equipped ceramics studio; printmaking studio; sculpture fabrication studio; 3,000-square foot Illges Gallery; student exhibition space; and an outdoor exhibition space. Soon to be added on the second floor is an 8,000-square foot research and exhibition space that will house the CSU Permanent Collection including the largest collection of Bo Bartlett's monumental scale paintings, and will serve as home to the Bartlett Center for Research in Visual Art. This space will also support the department's vibrant Visiting Artists and Scholars Residency Program (VASRP) and present contemporary exhibitions featuring acclaimed artists of national and international repute.
Carpenters Hall houses CSU's Department of Communication, which prepares students for leadership roles in their careers by developing an understanding of communication theory and research methodologies as well as a proficiency in oral and written communication. The Department of Communication offers tracks in Integrated Media, Public Relations and Communication Studies as well as a 100 percent online degree. The department operates WCUG-FM radio and a fully operational television studio in state of the art facilities in Carpenters Hall.
CSU's Schwob School of Music is housed in the Saunders Center for Musical Studies within the RiverCenter for the Performing Arts. This $78 million facility includes the city's finest performance, encompassing the 2,000-seat Bill Heard Theatre, the 450-seat Legacy Hall and its magnificent Jordan Concert Organ and a 150-seat Studio Theatre. All three concert halls enjoy outstanding acoustics and attract large, enthusiastic audiences each year. The Saunders Center for Musical Studies contains more than 83,000 square feet of rehearsal and instructional space. The facility has been rated among the finest in the country and offers ample practice rooms, chamber music rooms, Music Library, recording facilities, classrooms, and faculty studios that bustle with musical energy. With a recent gift from Maxine Schiffman and the Schiffman Family Foundation, 67 new Steinway pianos were purchased, making the Schwob School of Music an all-Steinway school.
The Department of Theatre's Theatre on the Park and its other world-class facilities were made possible by Columbus State University's $100 million capital campaign. The Theatre on the Park features a grand, glass-lined lobby overlooking Woodruff RiverFront Park and the Chattahoochee River. This facility consists of a 350-seat theater with full fly loft, elevator pit and the latest in lighting and sound technology; a black-box style teaching theater that can seat up to 200, a scene shop, a costume shop, a lab theatre, a lighting classroom, and other classroom and rehearsal spaces.
The historic brick building originally called the Seaboard Depot Air Line Railway Freight Depot was built in 1902 to serve the mill and warehouses in the riverfront area. A fire destroyed much of the building in 1977. Architect Bill Murphy rebuilt the Depot to house his practice. With support from the Mildred Miller Fort Foundation and others, it was purchased by the state and beautifully readapted to house individual art studios for faculty, students, and visiting artists, the ArtLab gallery, seminar and workshop space, and classrooms for Art History, Art Education, and Narrative Illustration & Book Arts. This facility has created an immediate synergy between our students, faculty, resident artists, and the public, while providing enhanced opportunities for program growth, exhibitions and presentations, teacher training, productivity, and community interaction.
Pasaquan is a seven-acre art environment that consists of six major structures, more than 900 feet of painted masonry fence, painted totems, decorative walkways, sculptures, and other art and artifacts. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is considered among the most important visionary art environments in the United States. Eddie Owens Martin, who introduced himself as St. EOM, was the creator of Pasaquan. The Pasaquan Preservation Society operated the site after his death. In 2014, the Kohler Foundation began work on Pasaquan, representing one of their largest preservation initiatives. The transition from Kohler Foundation to CSU will be completed in 2016, and Pasaquan will reopen to the public. The facility will provide opportunities for diverse programming, becoming a culturally enriching focal point in the region while assisting in economic development. A large repository of original art and artifacts housed in the CSU Archive and elsewhere supports the site, and is expected to further contribute to future generations of researchers.
Woodruff park was created as public green space through a partnership between Columbus State University and the city of Columbus. Bordered by the Chattahoochee River and the university's RiverPark campus, this park serves as a lush entrance area to the city's popular RiverWalk. Woodruff Park is available to be scheduled free of charge for non-profit groups organizing events that are free and open to the public.
The Bo Bartlett Center is an 18,425 square foot interactive gallery space, housed on the River Park campus of Columbus State University. The red brick, former textile warehouse turned gallery space, designed by AIA award winning architect, Tom Kundig, sits on the banks of the Chattahoochee River in Bartlett's hometown, Columbus Georgia.
As a cornerstone of the College of the Arts' Corn Center for Visual Arts, The Bo Bartlett Center is a pivotal element in the continued emergence of a national and international presence originally established by the College's Schwob School of Music and its Legacy Hall. Complementing exhibitions in the CSU Department of Art's acclaimed Norman Shannon and Emmy Lou P. Illges Gallery, The Bo Bartlett Center serves as an experiential learning center and cultural hub for the visual arts while affording visitors a broad range of arts experiences offered within the College's arts district.
