A: download the git hub source and added it to your project.create bridging header to include objective-c header file to import into your swift project.
import the header files of that objective-c library on that header file and you can use it.
this is the only way to use framework libraries without using pod.

News > Press Releases > BISHOP KEVIN VANN TO BLESS SITE OF FUTURE OUR LADY OF LAVANG SHRINE ON CHRIST CATHEDRAL CAMPUS
BISHOP KEVIN VANN TO BLESS SITE OF FUTURE OUR LADY OF LAVANG SHRINE ON CHRIST CATHEDRAL CAMPUS
In an elaborate ceremony accented by traditional Vietnamese dancers and a large outdoor Mass –the Vietnamese Catholic community will celebrate the progress made in realizing their dream of a shrine dedicated to Our Lady of LaVang in the heart of "little Saigon", the largest Vietnamese community outside Vietnam.
Garden Grove, Calif., (Oct. 16, 2017) – On Saturday, October 21, 2017 at 4 p.m. the Most Rev. Kevin Vann, Bishop of Orange, will join with thousands of Vietnamese Catholics and clergy for a ceremonial blessing of the future site of a shrine dedicated to Our Lady of LaVang on the Christ Cathedral campus (13280 Chapman Ave., Garden Grove 92840). This seminal project was announced by Bishop Vann and a core group of Vietnamese community and business leaders in December of 2016. Since this announcement the future shrine design process has been completed and significant fundraising has taken place and continues to fully fund construction of the shrine and needed site work.
"The energy and excitement within the Vietnamese Catholic community to build a shrine to the patroness of the Vietnamese people has been a blessing to our ministry at Christ Cathedral. I am pleased that the diligent efforts of the volunteers supporting this effort have reached this important milestone, the completion of the design phase for the shrine and the ceremonial blessing of the future site," said Bishop Vann.
The Vietnamese people suffered centuries of brutal persecution in their homeland and many faced an arduous journey fleeing Vietnam after the fall of Saigon in 1975. The Blessed Mother has provided spiritual care and protection to Vietnamese Catholics throughout these many struggles and hardships and they carry a deep and lasting connection to Our Lady of LaVang. It is appropriate that such a significant shrine be built at the center of the communities that are home to the largest Vietnamese community outside of Vietnam.
A committee of prominent Vietnamese-American community and business leaders has partnered with a dedicated team of architects to develop a contemporary expression of the Our Lady of LaVang that is true to the cultural traditions of Vietnamese Catholics while seamlessly integrating into the architecturally modern Christ Cathedral campus.
"Over the past year our teams of architects and designers has visited the shrine to our Lady in LaVang, Vietnam twice and have studied in great depth this apparition of Mary and the sacrificial story of the Vietnamese Catholic people. We feel that we have successfully married a contemporary design ethic with the tradition and solemnity of Our Lady of LaVang and the journey of faith for Vietnamese Catholics, said Aaron Torrence, AIA, Torrence Architects.
About Our Lady of LaVang
Fearing the spread of the Catholicism, the Cảnh Thịnh Emperor restricted the practice of Catholicism in Vietnam in 1798. Soon after, the emperor issued an anti-Catholic edict and a brutal persecution began. Many people sought refuge in the rainforest of LaVang in Quảng Trị Province, Vietnam, and many became very ill. While hiding in the jungle, the community gathered every night at the foot of a tree to pray the rosary.
One night, an apparition of the Blessed Mother dressed in the traditional Vietnamese áo dài, holding the infant Jesus in her arms, and flanked by two Angels of the Lord appeared to them in the branches of the tree. Our Lady comforted them and told them to boil leaves from the trees for medicine to cure their illnesses.
In 1802 the Christians returned to their villages, passing on the story of the apparition in LaVang and its message. As the story of the apparition spreads, many came to pray at this site and to offer incense. In 1820, a chapel was built.

Its been about a week since i received a copy of The Cool Whips new album 'baddies'. I have been listening to it non stop. Everywhere I have been, I have been listening to this Portland, Oregon band's follow up to their 2014 release, 'goodies'. I have played it for family, friends, ex band mates, and music loving neighbors, because its that good! 12 1960's pop songs that excite and entertain. The album flows with unforgettable melodies, sweet harmonies, and seamless changes. The songs deliver wonderful riffs, and the prominent use of organ is brilliant. I hear shades of The Hollies, The Zombies, and The Beatles, and there are 2 tracks that could be in the dance scenes of any Frankie & Annette movie. The lyrics are clever, with gems like "hasn't had much cool since he cut off his shag" just one of the reasons 'My Old Man Is A Drag', and the arrangements are complex in their simplicity. A wonderfully stylish album that delivers an exceptionally good time. Favorite tracks: 'Inside Outsider', 'Liberace's Lamp', and 'There Must Have Been Sugar On It'. You should check out 'baddies' and if you haven't, its probably time to check out 'goodies' as well.

With a significant number of quality Indie releases this year, narrowing a list down to 10 albums, worthy of I Can't Believe My Earz' 2014 Indie Album Of The Year, was no easy task. There are some honorable mentions: Neverfriend-'Evolve', The Everywheres-'Habitualism', Harbour-'Grade School Summer' & Social Strife-'With Friends Like These…'. We listened to them all, and here is our pick for the top 10 Indie Albums of 2014.
#10 DRUCKFARBEN————–'Second Sound'
I am not certain why Druckfarben has been a mystery. These Toronto based musicians are insanely talented. It is an impressive work. 'Second Sound' offers wonderful musical themes in an array of movements that are woven together in layers to create an incredible musical journey. This is way cool arena rock, out of the 1970s, with a 21st century bite. If you like Progressive-Rock, Druckfarben is the real deal.
#9 THE RED RAILS———-A Living Fiction
The Red Rails offer 'A Living Fiction', a classic rock sound immersed in blues. The Ottawa band has a sound that reminds me of Cream meets The Black Crowes. With a 21st century edge. I like it! This is not background music. This is an album you play in its entirety. In your car. While taking a 40 minute drive down a highway. Make sure it is a highway. You cannot drive slow while listening.
#8 THE SATISFACTORS——–'The Satisfactors'
The Satisfactors self titled debut album. It rocks from beginning to end with a wonderful garage groove. The songs are amazing. They are wonderfully crafted, and played with a beat that just doesn't stop. Bruce's vocals are great. Cool to hear from Jersey's Fantastic 4! The bass lines, and guitar riffs are insanely good, and I like the less is more approach to the drumming. This is rock 'n' roll the way it is meant to be played! This is Rock Til You Drop! This is The Satisfactors!
#7 SOUTH OF BLOOR——'The Street'
This Toronto band has re-generated my lust for pop with the release of 'The Street'. The songs are exquisite 2-3 minute masterpieces. Their ability to write wonderful bridges and changes has me almost awe struck. The vocals are spectacular. The melodies, wonderful. This album delivers 5 terrific pop songs with alternative rock influences. And it works. A wonderful album. A fun time.
#6 TOXIC MELONS———'Bus Therapy'
'Bus Therapy' is my kind of therapy. This album by Northern England's Toxic Melons is inspiring, soul touching, and mind altering. The album plays like a journey through a toxic mind, but that's ok. The songs are pop heaven, with shades of folk, blues, electronic, and some western influences. This Paul Fairbairn can write songs. The melodies are out of this world, and the harmonies, well, remind me of The Beach Boys. The music is wonderfully eccentric.The album is insanely addictive. It has me singing along and I haven't figured out all of the lyrics yet! An amazing compilation of great songs that has been placed on my must have list. Very cool.
#5 THE MINNOWS———'Live At The Belfast Barge'
Aside from Yessongs, Waiting For Columbus and The Last Waltz, I have never been a big fan of live albums, but I have to add this Irish band's 'Live At The Belfast Barge' to the list of great live albums. The songs are as wonderful as I remember them, and they stand up to the passage of time. The band is insanely cohesive, and the musicianship, extraordinary. I have spent the better part of the year immersed in The Minnows and I can tell you that swimming with the fishes is not a bad thing. This is a must for your collection.
#4 THE CORSETS———–'Are You Lonely, Are You Scared'
'Are You Lonely, Are You Scared' is a wonderful adventure. Toronto's The Corsets manage to harness their individual talents into a harmonic whole that is indeed the sum of its parts. Each is easily identifiable, yet needs the other parts to be heard. The energy level is wonderfully exciting, and the songs well, incredibly creative. Add this to your collection. It is that good.
#3 XPRIME——–'The Album'
Xprime should be big. Hailing from Niagara Falls, Ontario, they write incredibly melodic songs with amazing harmonies and unforgettable hooks. These are talented musicians who seem to be having fun with every note played. 'The Album' is a must have album. Give it 4 or 5 listens. At least. Pay particular attention to "To See You Here", a 70′s pop-folk tune that reminds me of Poco, "Feels Like I'm The Only One", a way cool song with R & B overtones, and "Early To The Sun".
#2 THE AFTER HOURS——-'Shaken, Not Stirred'
I really like Los Angeles' The After Hours. I am a fan! They cite among their many influences The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Kinks, The Byrds, The Zombies, The Hollies and The Turtles. Is it any wonder their music has wonderful 1960′s melodies, harmonies and riffs? The vocals and the guitar work stand out. 'Shaken, Not Stirred' captures the essence of 60′s music. The songs are wonderfully written, and demonstrate a remarkable ability to integrate all of their influences into one cohesive and coherent sound. This is a must have album.
And, finally, the I Can't Believe My Earz Indie Album Of The Year for 2014…
#1 THE HOT SPROCKETS——'Brother Nature'
'Brother Nature' by Ireland's The Hot Sprockets. 13 tracks, and not a bad one to be found. I have listened to this album over and over, and it just keeps getting better. The songs are insanely good. The production, wonderful. These guys can write. These guys can play. The album has a 'live off the floor' feel to it. I haven't heard this much energy in an album in a long time. The Hot Sprockets refer to their music as 'country dirt". I prefer to call it Irish Soul! Brother Nature is one of the most powerful albums I have heard in 2014, filled with the unusual, and the unexpected.
And there you have it. 10 exceptional albums. The I Can't Believe My Earz picks for 2014. Give them a listen. Purchase them. Support Indie Music, and Indie bands.
MUST HAVE CANADIAN INDIE ALBUMS-April 2014
Posted in Uncategorized with tags 1960s, 1970s, 2014, album, april, arena rock, british, canadian, druckfarben, i can't believe my earz, indie, jon anderson, Los Angeles, move, music, must have indie albums, Peculiar Disco Moves, Phil Naro, pop, progressive rock, punk, rock, second sound, Shaken Not Stirred, stupidity, swedish, The After Hours, the beach boys, the beatles, The Byrds, The Domino Effect, the hollies, the kinks, The Rascals, The Turtles, the zombies, toronto, toxic melons, U.K., XTC on April 27, 2014 by TheManicBlogger
Druckfarben–Second Sound
I am not certain why this Toronto band has been a mystery. These musicians are insanely talented. It is an impressive work. Standing out is Phil Naro's vocals.The style, the sound, the inflection, had me thinking Jon Anderson. Second Sound offers wonderful musical themes in an array of movements that are woven together in layers to create an incredible musical journey. This is way cool arena rock, out of the 1970s, with a 21st century bite. Druckfarben is the real deal.
Stupidity–Move
Not Canadian, but the Swedish band, Stupidity have mastered the marriage of punk, rock, and pop. This album serves up incredible songs with interesting instrumentation. and a few very cool surprises. This is definitely not Ikea. This album is boundless energy. This is one for the collection. And the car. Catch them live, whenever you can. As often as you can. Incredible band
Peculiar Disco Moves–The Domino Effect
From North-Eastern U.K., Peculiar Disco Moves have pulled me out of a cold and bleak Canadian Winter. Just in time for spring, this album has rejuvenated and reinvigorated my musical being. They are completely and utterly original, following none of the standard formulas. The music is clearly their own. Their originality borders on strangeness, but I am very cool with that. Both the music and the lyric contain that prototypical British irreverent humor found in other bands such as XTC, and Toxic Melons. The songs are incredibly well crafted, stylistic while free flowing, as if born out of themselves. The melodies are pure pop. The harmonies are straight out of the 1960's, somewhere between The Beach Boys and The Rascals. One of my go to bands. I am impressed. I am a fan.
The After Hours–Shaken, Not Stirred
I really like Los Angeles' The After Hours. I am a fan! They cite among their many influences The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Kinks, The Byrds, The Zombies, The Hollies and The Turtles. Is it any wonder their music has wonderful 1960's melodies, harmonies and riffs? The vocals and the guitar work stand out. "Shaken, Not Stirred" captures the essence of 60's music. The songs are wonderfully written, and demonstrate a remarkable ability to integrate all of their influences into one cohesive and coherent sound. This is a must have album. I will be getting 2, as I am certain I will be playing 1 of them into oblivion.

THE AFTER HOURS-Shaken, Not Stirred
Posted in Uncategorized with tags 1950s, 1960s, bass, California, garage, Going To The Go Go, guitar, harmonica, harmonies, Here To Stay, hook, indie, indie music, Kaliedoscopic, Keep Her Satisfied, Los Angeles, melody, music, organ, pop, power pop, psych pop, psych rock, psychedelic, riff, rock & roll, Shaken Not Stirred, solo, surf music, The After Hours, the beach boys, the beatles, The Byrds, the hollies, the kinks, The Lonely Boys, The Monkees, The Turtles, the zombies, vocals on March 24, 2014 by TheManicBlogger
I was beginning to think that the only way I was going to find any decent pop music to listen to, was to focus on bands from the U.K. Until now. The After Hours, hailing from Los Angeles, have released a dynamite album, "Shaken, Not Stirred", that has restored my faith in the resurgence of classic pop on this side of the Atlantic.
There is an amazing 1960's surf music feel to "Here To Stay", with its cool guitar riff and solo that involves a whammy bar! The melody & harmonies are pure California pop, and the unforgettable hook is surpassed only by the "big finish" and by the different guitar sounds within this track. "Going To The Go Go", with its 1950's rock & roll/garage style, has a dynamite bass line, and way cool harmonica. The changes and bridge are nice, the riff amazing, and the harmonies have me wondering which part I should sing. A wonderful pop song, "Keep Her Satisfied", has amazing harmonies, a great melody and a sweet 1960's feel. The guitar is particularly amazing. "The Lonely Boys", with its power-pop/rock 'n' roll style offers a great vocal track, a cool melody with great harmonies, and dynamite changes. The guitar kills, and I dig the hand clapping. My favorite track on the album, "Kaliedoscopic", is pure 1960's psych rock/pop, sort of The Monkees going psychedelic. The harmonies which are utilized as an additional instrument, and vocals are dynamite. The changes and effects, perfect. The drumming rocks and the mysical bridge that incorporates organ is wonderful. The way cool riff makes this song. Check it out!
I really like this band, The After Hours. I am a fan! They cite among their many influences The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Kinks, The Byrds, The Zombies, The Hollies and The Turtles. Is it any wonder their music has wonderful 1960's melodies, harmonies and riffs? The vocals and the guitar work stand out. "Shaken, Not Stirred" captures the essence of 60's music.

My venture into popular music began with an uncle, 10 years my senior, who was entrenched in the girl groups of the early 1960s. The first songs I remember listening to were the delightfully unsophisticated "My Boyfriend's Back" by The Angels, " He's A Rebel" by The Crystals and The Chiffons' "He's So Fine". I spent numerous hours ingesting the harmonies and the melody lines of these and other pop classics.
The Ronettes
And just when I thought I had heard all there was to hear, I discovered The Ronettes. They were amazing. Insanely different. Veronica Bennett, her sister Estelle and her cousin Nedra Talley created a sound so different than anything I had heard before. It was Ronnie's (Veronica) voice that drew me in. It was Phil Spector's production and the now infamous Wall Of Sound that kept me there. 'Baby I Love You" and "Be My Baby" kept me listening over and over again. I got my own 45 of "Be My Baby". I played it and played it. I drummed along with it on pots and pans. I knew every nuance of the song. musically and vocally. I adored Ronnie's voice and her vocal inflections. I still do. The power of her voice blows me away. And so began my epic adventure with rock and roll.
I heard The Beatles many times on the radio before I saw them on The Ed Sullivan Show. It was then that I knew I wanted to be, no, needed to be a musician. I wanted to make music. I wanted to be a Beatle. A plot was hatched to dispose of Ringo. Why not? I was quite proficient on the pots and pans, and how much different could the drums be? I wanted to be a drummer. I asked for drums for my birthday, and I got a guitar. What the hell. I learned to play and began writing songs.
I dove in to the British Invasion, headfirst. I spent years harboring vinyl from across the ocean. Listening to The Dave Clark 5, The Hollies, whose harmonies were some of the most complex I had heard, and The Kinks, who wrote incredible pop songs and played them like a rock band, allowed me to intercept the North American bands who were now emulating the British sound. And so, Tommy James and The Shondells, The Grass Roots, and The Lovin' Spoonful were added to my ever growing list of must have vinyl. The Beach Boys were added when I heard Pet Sounds. "God Only Knows" is a remarkable song . The harmonies are deep and full. Changes in tempo and time signature reflect Brian Wilson's genius. I was set. I was in pop paradise. In 1966-67, as The Beatles experimented with psychedelica, I did as well, finding gems in Blues Image, Spirit, and a host of other insanely talented bands.
On my 13th birthday, I received my own drum kit. I had fallen ass backwards into Progressive Rock and was living and breathing Yes; amazing musicians, with the ability to incorporate so many different melodies, time signatures and themes into one perfectly crafted work. Yes led me to King Crimson, Flash and inevitably to Pink Floyd, who made the complex seem simple and the simple sound complete. . How cool was that? I started a band, but I just couldn't shake my passion for pop. My fondness for Pagliaro, 5 Man Electrical Band, and Badfinger, created the sound and direction of my musical psyche. New Wave delivered Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello, and The Pretenders. One of my all time favorite bands,The Pretenders were pure pop. Unforgettable melody lines, great hooks, amazingly simple yet catchy riffs permeated each song. And Chrissy Hynde looked so cool holding a guitar.
Gotta Have Pop
To satisfy my passion, I have always looked for new artists playing pop. Over the years I have found The Pursuit Of Happiness, The Bob Segarini Band, and Sloan. Segarini is pop genius. His ability to hear the music long before it is ever played sets him out as one of the truly great pop song writers. Once referred to as the Canadian Nick Lowe, Segarini's Gotta Have Pop is a classic . I have, more recently found some amazing talent out there in bands named The Creekside Strays, The Micronite Filters, The Research Turtles, Toxic Melons and The Toniks. There are so many more that I have yet to discover. I can hardly wait! Recently a friend of mine who travels The Oregon Trail looking for new music introduced me to No Small Children. I have just started my auditory stalking of this band so any verdict at this time would be premature. He rarely steers me wrong. I will go on record as saying that they have something, and I suspect it is highly contagious as I can't seem to stop listening. My fondness for all music lies in melodies and harmonies. It began with the girl vocal groups and is as strong today as it ever was.

Assignment Manager
SAVANNAH (WJCL) - Savannah-Chatham Metro Police detectives are trying to identity two people who made purchases on a fraudulent credit card. Investigators say the man and woman captured on surveillance video stole the victim's identity and opened a fraudulent credit card that was used to make purchases in January. The victim told police that their wallet was stolen on January 24 after a car break-in 11 days prior. The victim received a credit card in the mail for an account they did not open. Investigators later learned the suspects opened the account on the same day the victim's wallet was stolen, police said. SCMPD obtained surveillance footage of the suspects and believe they may have ties to Effingham County. One suspect is a female in her early to mid-twenties, five foot six to five foot eight and weighing about 125 pounds. The second suspect is believed to be in his late twenties, approximately five foot ten to six feet tall and weighing between 180 and 190 pounds. He is bald or partially bald. Anyone with information on these suspects is asked to call CrimeStoppers at (912) 234-2020.

[INTERVIEW] Rising star Isaac Palmer talks about his massive year, what 2023 has in store and his new single with Amero & Thmpsn 'Walk It Off ft. Roshin'
One artist we're keeping an eye on for 2023 is the young and talented Isaac Palmer, who has already proven he's destined for greatness. Born with numerous medical challenges and countless surgeries, Isaac has been through more than most, but he's been through it all, incredibly determined to share his love and passion for music with the world.
He's only 22 and released the track "Inception" on Maxximize/Spinnin' Records with his widely acclaimed collaboration with Tony Junior. He's even shown off his remixing skills for Ty Dolla $ign and his friends The Chainsmokers, who have lit up the airwaves and found their way into DJ sets around the world.
Now he's back working with Amero, a Loudkult favorite who has reached millions of streams in his catalogue, and thmpsn, who has built a brand of millions of followers around his exciting videos of him playing the violin in exotic locations , for her single "Walk It Off ft. Roshin", signed to the respected label LoudKult. Featuring an energetic voice from Roshin, these four created an electrifying tech house single that's utterly irresistible. Whether it's the pithy bassline or the swinging groove, it all comes together seamlessly to make this an essential peak-time club track.
We had the chance to talk to Isaac about the song, his accomplishments this year and his plans for next year. Enjoy!
Tell us how Walk It Off came about.
I started this project over a year ago. I met Thmpsn in Vegas and I've known Amero for years so it's cool to finally have a track together. I was super happy that Roshin replied to my DM! I remember watching the Ultra Miami live stream and seeing Alesso perform his song with Shaun Frank. I wanted to work with him immediately! He's super talented! Many thanks to Loudkult for believing in the song!
What was your biggest highlight in 2022?
My biggest highlight of 2022 was definitely being able to play shows in Europe all summer. I was allowed to experience what tour life is like and that was very crazy! Can't wait to hopefully do it next summer! Another big highlight was being able to do a remix for The Chainsmokers! That was very special!
What did you learn in 2022 that you didn't know before?
I learned to make music while having a busy travel schedule throughout the summer. I could travel with my best friends. It was a very busy schedule and I learned very quickly how to make music, do shows and party a lot. Big thanks to my brother Tony Junior for bringing me!
Which artists are really inspiring you right now? In what ways do they inspire you (branding, sound design, songwriting, etc.)?
I have many artists that inspire me right now. The Chainsmokers are big! They put out really creative music and are the same with their branding. Skrillex is another artist I really like lately. I've heard a lot of his music and he's so experimental and I love that. I want to do more of that in 2023.
What are some of your goals for 2023?
My goals in 2023 are to release more original music and remixes than ever before! I also want to play more shows than this year. Also in the coming year I'm aiming for a specific stream number! I look forward to the new year! I have a lot of cool things I've been working on and I can't wait to show everyone.

Capitol Letters	By Jerry Roberts	| Thu Jan 15, 2015 | 12:00am
Boxer's Farewell and Brown's Last Inaugural Trigger Fracas at the Kids' Table
Last fall, Jerry Brown encountered a rival from the 20th century, who sarcastically compared the governor's bald pate to the hirsute look of his first term. "When I had hair," Brown replied, "Methuselah was walking the streets."
His rare bit of self-deprecation spotlighted a fundamental feature of 21st-century California politics: Nearly all of its top officials have long been eligible for Medicare. From Brown (76) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (74) to U.S. Senators Barbara Boxer (74) and Dianne Feinstein (81), a familiar cast of antediluvian Democrats has dominated politics for decades, suppressing the aspirations of the next generation.
Jerry Roberts
Things are about to change.
Last week, Boxer confirmed she'll retire when her fifth term ends in 2016; three days before, Brown was inaugurated for the final time as governor. These events set off a mad rumpus of behind-the-scenes plotting and public maneuvering among the lean and hungry set, whose ambitions at last are liberated.
THE TOP TIER: The top players in the political drama are an intertwined trio of liberals, including Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom (47), Attorney General Kamala Harris (50), and ex-L.A. mayor Antonio Villaraigosa (61).
Newsom jumped first, taking to Facebook last Monday to reject a Senate campaign, a signal he plans to run for governor in 2018. Twenty-three hours later, Harris declared her Senate candidacy on her website, becoming the early money front-runner a mere 23 months before election.
Former San Francisco mayor Newsom shares a fundraising base with Harris, an ex-S.F. district attorney; both are protégés of legendary pol Willie Brown and also share a political consultant, Averell "Ace" Smith. This happy coincidence suggests they've now sat down and divided up the world, a scenario that Newsom hotly denied: It's "nonsense that there is some kind of understanding," he told the L.A. Times.
A few days earlier, Villaraigosa solemnly proclaimed, "The urgency of the needs of the people of this great state have convinced me to seriously consider looking at running" for Senate. Loose translation: I'm running, unless I can't raise the money.
If he goes, Tony V would be the highest-profile Latino in the race, establishing an intriguing rivalry with Harris, a woman of African-American and South-Asian descent, over whom would be a more formidable advocate for California's emerging population.
THE SECOND TIER: Harris's Senate decision is unlikely to defer Tom Steyer, a billionaire climate-change enthusiast and ex-hedge fund honcho, who dished out $75 million to Democratic candidates nationally last year, more than anyone else. Despite the string of self-funded political novices who have failed here, (hello, Senator Michael Huffington), Steyer is beloved by environmentalists, in part because of his role in defeating a 2010 measure to undo California's progressive climate-change law.
Treasurer John Chiang also could imperil Harris's hopes of clearing the field, while most of the state's 38 Democratic House representatives surely look in the mirror and see a U.S. senator. One Dem who doesn't: L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti, who's taken himself out of the picture. The endangered status of the state GOP makes it tough to imagine a Republican winning statewide, although the top two primary makes all things possible. One name longingly tossed around in Republican circles is ex-secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, who has rejected previous entreaties to run for office.
JERRY SPEAKS: Brown's 23-minute inaugural last week sharply contrasted the seven-minute smart-ass speech he delivered when first sworn back in 1975. Displaying seriousness about governing, his 2,783-word text waded deep into the wonky weeds of education, criminal justice, and energy policies.
Forty years ago, Brown was the first major politician to advocate alternative fuels and environmental sustainability, and his career-capper speech embraced the issues as a political legacy; he proposed a sweeping, Send-a-Man-to-the-Moon-scale climate agenda, including a reduction in state gasoline usage of 50 percent.
Brown also rolled out a $164 billion budget plan for the fiscal year starting next July, a 5.4 percent proposed increase.
WINNER: K-12 schools, with a proposed $8 billion, 12 percent raise forecast to hike annual per-pupil spending to $9,667 — payback money "borrowed" from schools during the recession and finance Common Core standards implementation.
LOSER: UC, slated for a mere $120 million increase. UC president Janet Napolitano has threatened to impose a big tuition increase unless Sacramento boosts funding, infuriating Brown, no fan of political extortion: "As I've said before, I will not make the students of California the default financiers of our colleges and universities," he said.
Should be an interesting year.

Q: Orientdb quote in SQL query I found strange behaviour of SQL query in OrientDB Studio (also it repeated in REST protocol).
My server version is 2.2.5
Data in my class:
select * from name

Result:

    "result": [
        {

            "name": "foo name"
        },
        {
            "@type": "d",
            "@rid": "#26:0",
            "@version": 1,
            "@class": "name",
            "surname": "bar surname",
            "name": "bar name"
        },
        {
            "@type": "d",
            "@rid": "#27:0",
            "@version": 1,
            "@class": "name",
            "surname": "O'brien",
            "name": "baz"
        }
    ],
    "notification": "Query executed in 0.069 sec. Returned 3 record(s)"
 }

Where properties surname and name are text fields.
I create some SQL queries in Studio:
select * from name WHERE surname='O\'brien'

Result:
{
"result": [
    {
        "@type": "d",
        "@rid": "#27:0",
        "@version": 1,
        "@class": "name",
        "surname": "O'brien",
        "name": "baz"
       }
   ],
"notification": "Query executed in 0.016 sec. Returned 1 record(s)"

}
Works good.
Next:
select * from name WHERE NOT (surname='O\'brien')

Result:
{
"result": [
    {
        "@type": "d",
        "@rid": "#25:0",
        "@version": 1,
        "@class": "name",
        "surname": "foo surname",
        "name": "foo name"
    },
    {
        "@type": "d",
        "@rid": "#26:0",
        "@version": 1,
        "@class": "name",
        "surname": "bar surname",
        "name": "bar name"
    },
    {
        "@type": "d",
        "@rid": "#27:0",
        "@version": 1,
        "@class": "name",
        "surname": "O'brien",
        "name": "baz"
    }
],
"notification": "Query executed in 0.015 sec. Returned 3 record(s)"

}
In this case I obtained unexpected third result.
Next:
select * from name WHERE (NOT (surname='bar surname'))

Result:
{
   "result": [
       {
           "@type": "d",
           "@rid": "#25:0",
           "@version": 1,
           "@class": "name",
           "surname": "foo surname",
           "name": "foo name"
        },
        {
           "@type": "d",
           "@rid": "#27:0",
           "@version": 1,
           "@class": "name",
           "surname": "O'brien",
           "name": "baz"
        }
    ],
    "notification": "Query executed in 0.017 sec. Returned 2 record(s)"
}

Looks fine.
Next:
select * from name WHERE (NOT (surname='O\'brien'))

Result:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Next:
select * from name WHERE (surname='O\'brien')

Result:
Empty result

My question - it is bug, or I do something wrong?
These queries are parts of query builder, so I need understand how works in OrientDB parentheses.
Thanks.

A:
ODB ver2.2.12

Review: 'Book of Boba Fett' gives beloved 'Star Wars' character a worthy return to the screen
Zaki Hasan	December 29, 2021Updated: January 1, 2022, 1:58 pm
"The Book of Boba Fett" delves into the background of the fearsome Boba Fett, played by Temuera Morrison. Photo: Disney+
Thirty-eight years after Boba Fett plunged into the maw of the Sarlacc monster in "Return of the Jedi," the debut chapter of the new Disney+ and Lucasfilm series "The Book of Boba Fett" spent 38 minutes explaining how the titular bounty hunter made his escape. The latest entry from the brain trust behind "The Mandalorian" (and spinning directly off of that series) is very much a fans-only affair, but when a fan base is as deep and wide as that of the "Star Wars" franchise, that's not too big of a problem.
When "The Mandalorian" premiered on Disney+ in 2019, the Jon Favreau-created show — the first live-action series set in George Lucas' beloved galaxy far, far away — seemed like an attempt to take several decades of fan fervor for the character of Boba Fett, a mysterious bounty hunter with a great look and limited screen time, and transfer it over to a new lead unburdened by built-up expectations and all that dreaded canon.
And on that front, it largely succeeded. Thanks to a winning performance by lead Pedro Pascal and the absolutely adorable Grogu (a.k.a. Baby Yoda), the show not only tapped into the ineffable "Star Wars" magic, it also carved a place all for itself in the overall canon. And as it happens, that place also contained room for the guy who was the inspiration for the Mandalorian: big bad Boba himself.

Fett made his belated return to the living in the second season premiere of "The Mandalorian," reclaiming his iconic jet pack and armor as the season progressed and taking over the gangster throne vacated by Jabba the Hutt. As played by Temuera Morrison, this new, older Fett's weathered countenance bore the battle scars of stories yet untold (most notably how the heck he got out of a desert monster's digestive tract).
And so, With aide-de-camp Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) by his side, Boba is settling in as the desert planet Tatooine's reigning criminal capo. But there are plenty of others who'd rather be the boss of bosses. That's the "present day" story line in "Book of Boba Fett," but the bulk of the first episode (titled "Stranger in a Strange Land") is given over to Boba's flashbacks while healing in a bacta tank, detailing his harrowing journey from inside the Sarlacc to eventual enslavement by Tusken Raiders.
It's a measure of how deeply wedded the "Star Wars" franchise has become to its own internal mythology that this latest entry lays a trail of callbacks and visual nods — a virtual parade of, "Hey, I remember that!" — as if to cement the fanboy credentials of those making it. (Not that show creator Jon Favreau need worry about that after "The Mandalorian" brought back "Return of the Jedi"-era Luke Skywalker, played by Mark Hamill with some digital trickery, last season.)

Boba Fett has always had a mystique far outstripping his actual presence. Appearing for roughly five minutes over two films, he was always an action figure first and a character second. Nonetheless, he was built up into the ultimate badass by fans, and that in turn manifested in licensed novels, comic books and video games, leading creator George Lucas to ladle his backstory into the "Star Wars" prequels and making Boba's dad Jango (also Morrison) the progenitor of the clone army at the center of the spoken-in-hushed-tones Clone Wars, alluded to in the original 1977 film.
While that inclusion may have seemed egregious or cynical at the time, it paid off decades later by landing Morrison, a gifted performer who can convey a lot with the merest of arched eyebrows, in this part and finally letting the character on screen match up to his badass reputation.
Not a ton of forward movement happens in the first chapter of "The Book of Boba Fett," but after "The Mandalorian," the show's creators have earned the benefit of letting their slow-burn plans play out over the season's seven episodes. For the time being, the premiere successfully fills viewers in on the backstory, while centering a newly intriguing main character in a world we know, played by the perfect actor for the job.
M"The Book of Boba Fett": Drama series. Starring Temuera Morrison and Ming-Na Wen. Created by Jon Favreau. (TV-14. Seven approximately 45 minute-long episodes). Premiere episode streaming now on Disney+. Subsequent episodes released Wednesdays through Feb. 9.

Both Udinese and Chievo are struggling badly coming into Sunday's tie at Dacia Arena. The hosts took only one point from past four league matches to drop down to 16t place. They are now only one point above danger area and need a result here against the rock-bottomed Chievo.
I Gialloblu sit lone at the very foot of the league ladder. They are as many as nine points away from the safe zone. There are 15 games left to play before the end of the season, but it's really hard to predict Chievo's salvation given their dreadful run of form.
The visitors have the weakest defensive record in the entire league as they shipped 47 goals in 23 matches so far. They were particularly easy to break down in the most recent period. The team led by Domenico Di Carlo allowed 12 goals in last four league outings (three per game).
Draw was the most frequent of outcomes in the history of this match-up.
It happened 14 times in 35 games.
Udinese won 12 and lost 9 of remaining 21 ties.
Three of past four H2H encounters saw fewer than three goals scored.
Udinese claimed a 0-2 victory when they visited Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi in late-September last year.
Both teams were generally struggling to keep things quiet at the back of late, but we still don't expect a goal fest given the importance of the match as well as the fact neither of two outfits showed a particularly strong attacking form this season.
Zebrette notched only 10 goals in 12 home outings, while Chievo bagged only 8 goals in 11 away fixtures in this term of Serie A. Furthermore, three of last four head to head encounters saw the Under 2.5 goals FT option "coming in".
A low-scoring draw is thus what we are expecting from this affair.


Put all the ingredients into a medium saucepan and simmer over medium heat until thick.
Allow to cool, then store in a sealed container in your fridge. If you are not going to use it all in the next week, you can also freeze this. I freeze individual portions in an ice cube tray.
This is especially delicious with burgers. You may have to give up the bun but you no longer have to give up the ketchup.

Q: How to run shell command and have it print output while command runs? I use the function below to run shell commands, but I can't seem to get it to print the output while the command is running. For example if I run /usr/sbin/system_profiler, I have to wait until the command is done executing before I can see the output.
How do I print the output of a shell command while the command is still running?
func runCommand(cmd: String, args: String...) -> (output: [String], error: [String], exitCode: Int32) {
print("running shell command")
var output: [String] = []
var error: [String] = []
let task = Process()
task.launchPath = cmd
task.arguments = args
let outpipe = Pipe()
task.standardOutput = outpipe
let errpipe = Pipe()
task.standardError = errpipe
task.launch()
let outdata = outpipe.fileHandleForReading.readDataToEndOfFile()
if var string = String(data: outdata, encoding: .utf8) {
    string = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .newlines)
    output = string.components(separatedBy: "\n")
}
let errdata = errpipe.fileHandleForReading.readDataToEndOfFile()
if var string = String(data: errdata, encoding: .utf8) {
    string = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .newlines)
    error = string.components(separatedBy: "\n")
}
task.waitUntilExit()
let status = task.terminationStatus
print("shell end")
return (output, error, status)
}

A: You have to make your task asynchronous and readInBackgroundAndNotify.
Something like this (untested), it uses the terminationHandler and adds the readCompletionNotification observer to get the notifications.
var output = ""

func runCommand(cmd: String, args: String..., completion: @escaping (String, String, Int32) -> Void) {
    print("running shell command")
    let task = Process()
    task.launchPath = cmd
    task.arguments = args
    let outpipe = Pipe()
    task.standardOutput = outpipe
    let errpipe = Pipe()
    task.standardError = errpipe
    task.terminationHandler = { [unowned self] returnedTask in
        NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self,
                                                  name: FileHandle.readCompletionNotification,
                                                  object: (returnedTask.standardOutput as! Pipe).fileHandleForReading)
        let status = returnedTask.terminationStatus
        if status == 0 {
           completion(output, "", status)
        } else {
            let errorData = errpipe.fileHandleForReading.readDataToEndOfFile()
            let errorString = String(data:errorData, encoding: .utf8)!
            completion("", errorString, status)
        }
    }
    let outputHandle = (task.standardOutput as! Pipe).fileHandleForReading
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(forName: FileHandle.readCompletionNotification, object: outputHandle, queue: OperationQueue.current, using: { notification in
        if let data = notification.userInfo?[NSFileHandleNotificationDataItem] as? Data, !data.isEmpty {
            output.append(String(data: data, encoding: . utf8)!)
        } else {
            task.terminate()
            return
        }
        outputHandle.readInBackgroundAndNotify()
    })
    outputHandle.readInBackgroundAndNotify()
    task.launch()
}

If you want to print the data while receiving replace output.append(String(data: data, encoding: . utf8)!) with print(String(data: data, encoding: . utf8)!) and then you probably don't need the completion handler either.

A: Specifically, the block reason is outpipe.fileHandleForReading.readDataToEndOfFile()
You may try the following to verify this:
         ...
     task.standardOutput = outpipe
     let errpipe = Pipe()
      task.standardError = errpipe

    task.launch()

       repeat{
    let outdata = outpipe.fileHandleForReading.readData(ofLength: 100) //.readDataToEndOfFile()
    if var string = String(data: outdata, encoding: .utf8) {
        string = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .newlines)
        output = string.components(separatedBy: "\n")
 print(output)
    }
    let errdata = errpipe.fileHandleForReading.readData(ofLength: 100)// .readDataToEndOfFile()
    if var string = String(data: errdata, encoding: .utf8) {
        string = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .newlines)
        error = string.components(separatedBy: "\n")
        }} while (task.isRunning)

or add a readerHandler:
 outpipe.fileHandleForReading.readabilityHandler = { file in
         let  outdata = fileHandle.readData(ofLength: 100)
            if var string = String(data: outdata, encoding: .utf8) {
                string = string.trimmingCharacters(in: .newlines)
             print( string.components(separatedBy: "\n"))

        }

Then you can have many methods to avoid this, link tap in a Timer or Observer in other threads.

ESPN: Behind-the-scenes look at the NFL game-day concussion protocol
In recent years, the term "concussion protocol" has become such a part of the NFL lexicon that everyone refers to it — from players to coaches to those of us who cover the league to all the fans who watch. But how many of us could actually describe the different elements of the protocol? Or identify the roughly 30 medical personnel present at every game?
Even as a medical professional who understands the terminology involved and has followed the evolution of the NFL concussion protocol over the years, it wasn't until I had the opportunity to see the various elements and personnel in action that I could fully appreciate the working mechanics of the protocol on game day.
During the preseason, I had the opportunity to spend time before, during and after a game with Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL's chief medical officer, to get a close-up view of the league's game-day protocol. While there were some components with which I was very familiar, there were also some revelations.
Here are the three things that struck me the most:
(1) Activity in the spotter's booth
While there are two spotters (both certified athletic trainers) in the booth, there are actually five people with distinct responsibilities who are tasked with looking for injuries throughout the game. All five are NFL-hired, independent of the teams playing.
The two athletic trainers are flanked by two video technicians, who are available to show various angles of video and zoom in on that video to enhance the view of a particular play and/or player(s). The spotters are not sitting down, casually looking through binoculars and watching the game. Rather, they are standing, moving constantly, pivoting and turning, alternating between binocular-enhanced views of the field and technician-enabled cuts of video. There is constant communication between the spotters and their respective assigned technicians, between the spotters themselves, between the spotters and team personnel, between the video technicians in the booth and those on the field at the sideline video monitor, and between the spotters and the game officials in the case of a medical timeout.
The fifth individual in the booth is an unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant (UNC), who is responsible for monitoring broadcast video to help ensure that there is at least one pair of eyes on all possible video angles. The addition of this booth UNC is the result of an update to the 2018 game-day concussion protocol.
(2) Number of replay video offerings
The multiple angles available to the medical personnel tasked with reviewing video are far more comprehensive than I imagined them to be. Not only are there multiple view options, including an expanded field view, but the presence of video technicians to fast forward/rewind/freeze/zoom as necessary to help the medical provider optimally view the personnel involved in an injury-related play, as well as the circumstances of injury itself, is an incredible asset. The spotters have the authority to stop the game by calling a medical timeout so a player can receive medical attention.
To be clear, just as with football plays, video review is not 100 percent definitive and should never stand alone as a means of diagnosing injury. But to have this tool available for medical personnel to complement their player evaluation is a bonus. The video clips are logged and are also available to the medical staff after the game, something helpful for reviewing head injuries, as well as all orthopedic injuries that occur during a game. It is also a tool medical providers can use with the athletes after the game to help explain how an injury occurred, something players are often not aware of in the moment.
(3) Depth of medical personnel staff
During the "60-minute meeting" (so named because it takes place 60 minutes prior to kickoff), all medical providers for the game gather in the officials' locker room to meet face-to-face (for purposes of easier identification, because the officials want to know who will be potentially running out onto the field or speaking in their ears) and to review the emergency action plan: What happens if a player needs to go to the hospital? Where are the ambulances and paramedics stationed? What is the path in this particular stadium to the X-ray unit?
Roughly 30 individuals with some type of medical responsibility are stationed at various points around the stadium and must be able to recognize one another in an urgent situation. They also need to be able to communicate effectively yet confidentially at all times, which is why the radio channels they will be using during the game are confirmed and tested in advance of kickoff. The 60-minute meeting might last only six minutes in its entirety, but it struck me as perhaps the most important pregame meeting taking place in the stadium.
To hear more about the concussion protocol, ranging from which medical personnel are on site, what happens in the spotter's booth and in the blue tent, the video review process, in-game player concussion evaluation and how the evaluation of the protocol is ongoing, please check out my Answering the Bell podcast with Dr. Sills.

"True Detective," Season 1: review
[NB: spoilers ahead.]
"True Detective" is the brainchild of series creator and screenwriter Nic Pizzolatto. All eight episodes of Season 1, which debuted in January of 2014, are directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga. The series stars Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey as detectives Martin Hart and Rustin Cohle, respectively. In a moment evoking any number of serial-killer movies and TV dramas, Marty and Rust are given the case of Dora Lange, a young prostitute found murdered and left exposed to the elements in a ritualistic manner back in 1995: she's found bound and naked, riddled with stab wounds indicating torture, crowned with antlers, and defiled with some sort of unholy graffiti, including a spiral that will, along with the antlers and a weird, evil pyramid made of twigs, be a recurrent trope throughout the series.
Season 1 time-jumps between 1995, 2002, and 2012 as the story covers the supposed "solving" of the case, followed by the case's reopening when the killings are shown to have continued all along the Louisiana coast. The series spends time on the rocky relationship between Rust and Marty, as well as on their personal lives away from each other. Marty is married to Maggie (Michelle Monaghan) and has two daughters; Rust was once married, but divorced after the death of his two-year-old daughter. Rust is the intellectual one with a special insight into the mind of a serial killer; Marty prefers to go on instinct and isn't the bookish type. He sees Rust Cohle as an overthinking, self-torturing, cynical soul, but he respects Cohle's methods and intuitions. Marty's own sense of ethics is fairly strangely wired; he's got a soft spot for kids and shows occasional compassion to certain criminals, but he's also a serial adulterer who doesn't realize he's running his family into the ground.
The depositions that Rust and Marty give in 2012, with lengthy flashbacks to 1995, are largely what drive the plot, along with the deepening mystery of who the real killer is and what his connection with local Louisiana religion and politics might be (as it turns out, it's all about family). Sometimes, the narratives we hear in the detectives' separate depositions match the content of the flashbacks; sometimes, it's obvious the depositions are lies that don't match the flashbacks at all. While all the time-jumping might seem nonlinear at first, the story is actually very easy to follow: the passage of time is often made clear by facial hair, head hair, clothing styles, and types of cell phones in use at the time.
Season 1 benefited, I think, from having a single director direct all eight episodes. This allowed for a consistency of style and story that gave the plot a smooth arc. The plot was also extremely well constructed, with converging lines of evidence that eventually led to a horrific conclusion. In terms of tone, the series was brooding and philosophical—a touch of "Silence of the Lambs" and "Se7en" and the slow, drawly, meditative style of Terrence Malick's "The Thin Red Line," mainly thanks to Matthew McConaughey's spookily cosmic discourses while he's giving his deposition. There was one moment, during those discourses, when McConaughey's Rust talks about time and space as seen from a fourth-dimensional perspective—the perspective of eternity—that threw me out of the series and back into "Interstellar," which featured McConaughey on a journey into the fifth-dimensional recesses of an engineered black hole.
But the best thing about the story's structure was how it subverted the usual expectation that the protagonists might make it out of the story alive. You see, the series's "present" is 2012, and the depositions that take place in 2012 actually end before the season itself draws to a close, leaving us an extra episode or two in which to take the story to its real conclusion. Normally, when stories are told in flashback, we assume the tellers of the story have survived the adventure. When Rust and Marty's depositions are finished, we're only at episodes 6 or 7. Rust tracks Marty down, near the end, telling him there's still unfinished business with the old 1995 Dora Lange case, and the two go back in pursuit of the real killer. This story structure—giving us an epilogue after the main story has been told—adds a delicious and unexpected layer of suspense to the proceedings. Bravo for good writing.
I had seen scuttlebutt, early on, that Season 1 of "True Detective" contained "supernatural" elements in it, and that's worth discussing, but just to warn you, Dear Reader, it's going to be a spoilery discussion. A few episodes into Season 1, we find out that Rust Cohle worked undercover narcotics for four years, which is apparently far longer than most UC cops work: most UCs rotate out after eleven months. During that time, Cohle did plenty of drugs, and they began messing with his head, leaving him prone to "visions." In the season finale, Cohle pursues the killer, known throughout the story as "the Yellow King"—which is a reference to The King in Yellow, a collection of 1895-era stories by Robert Chambers—down into a fortress-like structure that the killer calls "Carcosa," a reference to an image from "Cassilda's Song" in The King in Yellow. ("Carcosa" may itself be a derivative of the name of the old French fortress city of Carcassonne.) The killer seems to be the leader of a cult that tortures and kills children and teens, many of whose bodies end up mummified inside the confines of Carcosa, which is itself something of an evil temple. When Rust, pursuing the killer, enters the temple's sanctum, he looks up and sees what I can only describe as a wormhole composed of a cloud of swirling stars. The vision lasts only a moment before the killer rushes out of the dark to attack Rust, and we viewers are left to wonder whether what we saw was a frightening glimpse of some other reality peeking into our world, or a mere artifact of Rust's drug-addled brain. I tend toward the latter view: the cosmic whorl doesn't play any other role in the plot: by the time the killer attacks Rust (and soon after, Marty), the case has effectively been solved. The weird vision adds almost nothing to the story... except one thing: the cloudy spiral is a reflection of the spiral symbol seen on many of the victims' backs. So we're back to wondering whether Rust's vision was merely a head-trip or an objective hierophany.
I'm not sure why, but this supernatural moment disappointed me: I guess I had been expecting something freakier, like a manifestation of Cernunnos, the antlered Celtic god of life and nature to whom the series keeps coyly referring—but always in the context of the evil and the infernal (which is, as far as I can tell, a misinterpretation of who Cernunnos was; he might have been spun as satanic by the Christian Church as a way of turning the locals away from paganism). The survivors of the Yellow King seemed freaked out by his appearance; one survivor remembered being chased through the woods by a "green-eared spaghetti monster"; many other would-be victims recalled seeing a tall man with distinctive scarring that ran all along the bottom of his face. Drawings found at several important sites showed shadowy depictions of a Cernunnos-like being: a human body with antlers. All of this led me to believe that, if we were in for a supernatural manifestation, it would be along the lines of some sort of antlered, bloodthirsty being not of this world. Instead, we got a wormhole.
Also disappointing was how the series hinted at Louisiana's long history with Vodoun and Santeria without ever really delving into that part of the state's culture. (This story was many things, but a tourism advert for a not-at-all-creepy coastal Louisiana it wasn't.) What was shown was the weird interaction between the Yellow King cult and the local churches, with the Christians sometimes being weirdly syncretic between Protestantism and Catholicism (we see a tent-revival preacher make the sign of the Cross at one point). Moments like this offered us a tantalizing glimpse into something potentially deep and dark, and it might have been nice to explore that for a while, given how meandering the season's plot already was. Alas, all we ever got was a taste, and while this didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the series, it was still a bit disappointing.
The series's other major flaw was the self-consciously writerly dialogue, which did, unfortunately, remind me in some instances of the stilted dialogue from "Hannibal." That said, "True Detective" was far, far better written than that other show, and even with the pretentious-sounding way that some of the characters (especially Cohle) spoke, the story generally felt unforced and emotionally authentic. I should also note that the dialogue contained some absolutely hilarious, and absolutely profound, quips and one-liners, many of which ought to be slapped onto bumper stickers and sold for a healthy profit. The show contained a good measure of wit.
"True Detective," Season 1, is stocked with great actors giving great performances. Michelle Monaghan does a fine job as a put-upon wife and mother who reaches her breaking point; Harrelson and McConaughey play extremely well off each other, taking the odd-couple-cop cliché and breathing fresh life into the partnership. I actually appreciated how the story took time to step away from the murder case to focus on all these relationships; the characterization is, in my opinion, what makes the season work as well as it does. Fukunaga's direction is calm and assured, giving us a nonlinear-yet-linear narrative to follow. All in all, "True Detective" makes for a great binge-watching session, and I'm kind of sorry it's all over. Luckily, I now own Season 1, so I can watch it again at my leisure.

Item #25: Église De Stains, by Maurice Utrillo
This weary nicotine-stained lithograph-on-board has pride-of-place in my living room not because it is valuable (certainly not) or noteworthy. This print occupied a similar position in my grandparents' home for as long as I can remember and likely before that, so it is a piece of my own history. This was my pop's parents' home, where I visited often as a child and lived briefly as a teenager. So many memories of meals and events and holiday gatherings in that space, I can still feel and smell the heat of the kitchen and the food and the family crowding in everywhere they could. So many great-aunts and -uncles and -cousins barely known.
The print was furniture rather than art, purchased at Eaton's, the storied but now defunct department store chain. I vaguely remember the decoration section of the furniture department, with piles of area rugs, shelves stuffed with cushions, and flip-racks of framed "art"; think of the same from modern-day Ikea, but with more must and dust, less light, and a more dapper and elderly staff.
I imagine this piece being purchased primarily by or for my grandmother. Grandma was francophone, Winnipeg born and raised, and likely never saw Paris in her life. But I imagine the quiet morning feeling of this street scene, especially with the church at the centre – not big or garish, but part of the community, as common as the cobblers – appealed to her francophone heart. Grampa worked for Eaton's for a time, so perhaps he picked it for her as a gift for their new home or a birthday.
When my grandpa died in 2000, I happened to be in Winnipeg shortly afterwards and my uncle asked if I wanted anything from the house. I met him there and walked through a place I hadn't visited in many years. It was eerie being in such a familiar space that was so unchanged (although the print was now in the hallway, not in the living room as I had remembered). It felt a bit odd and despoiling, taking remnants from the past, but I was encouraged to take what I wanted as the rest was bound for a less dignified but necessary fate. In addition to some books from my childhood, the print came home with me.
The print is a murky, faded version of the original. 30+ years in the smoke-filled home in Winnipeg did the image no favours. However, I find the street perspective appealing, almost like looking out a window into a quotidian early morning aspect of a different time and place, and the reminiscences of family gatherings bring pleasant memories.
Here is the original in all its glory, along side a contemporary postcard of the scene (Postcard photo of the street La rue de Jean-Durand, c. 1902).
Learning more about the picture itself has only been possible in recent years. (The lack of information led to brief fantasies that the print was one of those lost treasures of the art world…BC woman find priceless painting in family trinket.) It has taken even the Internet a while to catch-up on the cataloguing of artists such as Maurice Utrillo. He's much-lesser-known than almost any other artist you might think of from the early 20th century (despite Wikipedia's effusive description of his glory and "international acclaim").

Église De Stains, c. 2017. Sadly, the bell tower is no more.
While Utrillo has more famous pieces that are easier to find and reference, this particular one's provenance eluded me for years. Even now, there is nothing in the way of story or background about the scene; the most relevant info is that it was painted in 1937, and the original is in a private collection with an estimated value of ~$100K. Additional sleuthing revealed the history of the church itself, and the modern view of that same street.
Sadly, the modern aspect is less picturesque, and the bell tower wouldn't be visible even if it was there, with the newer buildings. But the street seems as serene as always.
The provenance and value to me will always be priceless, and I count it among my own personal treasures.
