giotto lamentation linear perspective
Home Uncategorized	giotto lamentation linear perspective
Giotto, Masaccio and Cimabue were integral in pushing new ideas within Italian art and this, in turn, developed across the rest of Europe. Martini (1284-1344) - had managed to free themselves from the constraints Unusually detailed anatomical depiction of Christ's body suggests how it hangs heavily from the cross, as might an actual human body. After the Betrayal of Christ (Kiss of Judas), the Lamentation of the Death of Christ is the most famous of the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes painted by Giotto in the first decade of the 14th century. He creates a highly emotional story with the combination of elements of traditional Byzantine paintings, such as the dimensional layout and iconography, with his stylized faces showing an emotional response to the death of Christ. All rights reserved. Giotto also emphasizes the connection between this world and the next by making the unusual move of including a portrait of his patron, Enrico Scrovegni, holding a model of his chapel and offering it to the enthroned Christ. Giotto di Bondone (1266/7 – 1337) is a man of mystery.We know very little about him but his huge influence on Western art make him a compelling character. The human figures are given much greater When painting The Expulsion of Adam and Eve in his fresco cycle for the Brancacci Chapel (c. 1425, S. Maria del Carmine, Florence), Masaccio echoed Giotto's perspectival rendering of architectural elements and evocation of emotional response (Adam and Eve bend over awkwardly with shame and grief as they walk past an arch receding into the distance). For instance, the foreshortened figures of the grieving angels, and the diagonal lines of the mountain ridge, bring a sense of deep-space to the composition. painting, Giotto's fresco cycle introduced a revolutionary style of This realistic depiction of emotion on human faces set him apart from other artists of his day, turning Christ and his followers into real human beings with real emotion. The frescoes were commissioned by the wealthy Scrovegni family for their private chapel in Padua. For an interpretation of other trecento The painting is also notable for the clear sense of anatomical realism with which the figures are depicted. Powerful scenes would tempt artists from the Renaissance with their inspiring tales from religious teachings. Another significant factor was that the best paid commissions for artists at this time would often come from religious institutions too. This is an emotional scene where the son of god is discovered, perhaps one of the most powerful scenes to be in all religious scripture.

This helps to connect Christ to both humanity and also the Gods above.

Moreover, the gazes of the surrounding figures are directed at the holy pair, encouraging the viewer to send their gaze in the same direction and to share in the depicted act of adoration. By placing him on the side of the blessed, Giotto indicates Scrovegni's piety; this is in stark contrast to the poet Dante (then a resident of Padua) who had condemned Scrovegni to Hell in his Divine Comedy. In addition, Jacob's steady, concentrated gaze at Isaac complements Isaac's pensive, sideways gaze.

These changes radically changed the direction of art in the subsequent centuries. • Analysis The overarching theme is one of redemption and this probably reflected a desire for the Scrovegni family, who grew rich on moneylending, to appease their conscience and redress their sins.

AAR Board Statement on U.S. Executive Order "Combating Anti-Semitism"
The American Academy of Religion (AAR) is the world's largest organization of scholars of religion with over 8,000 members. The AAR, both individually and in partnership with sibling institutions, issues statements in response to social or policy trends that it believes curtail or run counter to the values we uphold: promoting academic excellence, professional responsibility, free inquiry, critical examination, diversity, inclusion, respect, and transparency within the academic study of religion and in the work of the American Academy of Religion itself. The AAR has repeatedly called on its members, the broader academy, and all people to reject bigotry and violence, and to affirm the free practice of religion. We do so once again in this letter.
The recent presidential Executive Order "Combating Anti-Semitism" points to how the current administration intends to enforce Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 with regard to anti-Semitism. As part of this enforcement effort, the order directs federal agencies to "consider" the "non-legally binding working definition" of anti-Semitism that has been adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA). The IHRA defines anti-Semitism as "a certain perception of Jews which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of anti-Semitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities."
We denounce anti-Semitism in the strongest possible terms and work to combat it in our guild, on our campuses, and in the broader society. However, we are concerned that some of the "contemporary examples of anti-Semitism" cited by the IHRA could be used to suppress political speech and curb academic freedom, especially criticism of the policies of the state of Israel. Kenneth Stern, the lead author of the IHRA working definition, wrote in the New York Times in 2016 that the definition "was never supposed to curtail speech on campus." We do not pretend that our membership is of a single opinion as regards the Israel-Palestine question. But we support our membership's right to critically engage this issue in free and open debate, and are concerned about the effect the executive order may have on free speech in academic settings. As scholars of religion, we are all too aware of the power of religion to be used as a tool for sowing the seeds of division and hatred. All instances of bigotry and demagoguery—including that directed against Jews—should be monitored and they require the proper response. The AAR has a robust policy for responding to instances of discrimination and hate speech, as do our members' institutions. While we are steadfast in opposing anti-Semitism, we fear that the recent executive order obfuscates rather than clarifies. We therefore urge the Trump administration to rescind the Executive Order.


Motor Carrier Service, Inc. was started as a family owned business in the mid 1970's by Harold and Louis Tuttle. Many Carriers and small fleets failed to survive deregulation and terrible business conditions of the early 80's, but MCS bucked the trend.
In 1986, MCS applied for and was granted Interstate Operating Authority from The Interstate Commerce Commission. With our own Operating Authority, MCS was able to maintain profitability and hire the key personnel necessary to fuel continued growth. Many of those key personnel are still with MCS today.
In 1991, MCS was granted Property Brokerage Authority which allowed the company to offer a full menu of services for truckload shippers. Motor Carrier Service Logistics has since been incorporated to service the brokerage component of the business.
In 1992, MCS moved to its present location in Northwood, Ohio, a suburb just east of Toledo. Our location is strategically centered in the heart of the "Crossroads Of America" with close proximity to Interstate 80/90 (east and west) and Interstate 75 (north and south). Our facility includes an 11,000 square foot equipment maintenance garage, a 10,000 square foot warehouse and ample truck and trailer parking.
In 2014, MCS' ownership changed which has had a very positive effect on many aspects of the entire operation. John Fritzius was promoted to COO.

Manchester United Transfer Talk: Declan Rice, Christian Eriksen, Juan Mata
June 18, 2019 By paulmbanks 1 Comment
The rebuild of Manchester United could definitely take some time, so get ready and dig your heels in for that. The upshot is that we should, at least in theory, have a blockbuster summer transfer window filled with many comings and goings.
With Manchester United linked to approximately 97,324 players already (although only one has actually been acquired), the time is right for some Red Devils transfer talk. With just 12 days until players report for training camp, United need to take their slow start to the summer transfer window and really kick it up a notch.
We commence with Tottenham Hotspur star Christian Eriksen, who is out of contract at the end of the upcoming season.
The great Dane has made it known that he would like to leave, preferably for a bigger club. He's been linked to Real Madrid and Juventus, but with the former already taking care of player acquisition business elsewhere and the latter fixated on bringing Paul Pogba back, Eriksen may need to look elsewhere.
He's been linked with Manchester United and Liverpool, with former Spurs ace Jamie O'Hara believing Anfield to be the better destination.
"I've got a sneaky suspicion that they might try and take Eriksen from Tottenham as he's in the last year on his deal," said O'Hara. "He's the type of player they need."
Elsewhere, midfielder Juan Mata is set to extend his stay at Old Trafford, as he's on the brink of signing a new deal, according to the Manchester Evening News.
The Sun claims Mata's deal is for three years, which would then keep him at the club until age 34.
Speaking of the Sun, they have a story on United's interest in West Ham United midfielder Declan Rice. The other tabloids have picked up on it too, with the narrative being the Irons don't want to sell, but could be tempted with a £80 million bid. If Paul Pogba does leave, and with Ander Herrera already gone, United will really need to beef up the midfield this summer.

What made you realize you wanted to pursue a career in technology?
Growing up, I never planned to work in IT. Initially, I wanted to pursue a career in nursing because I wanted to be in a profession that would directly help people. Once I realized that I am too squeamish to be a nurse, I decided to pursue a career in health information management because it still allowed me to work in health care without having direct patient contact. During my studies, I feared that working directly in technology would not be the right fit for me because I did not consider myself to be "technical" enough. Once I actually began my career with UPMC's IT Rotation Program, I realized that my stereotypical view of IT was flawed, and there are many facets to having a thriving career in this field. I learned that career opportunities can range from heavily technical engineering roles to nontechnical roles in areas such as project management. My current role of leading the operations for the office of our CIO allows me to use my communication, organizational, and project management skills to enable our IT strategy and operations. This demonstrates that you do not have to be highly technical to have a successful career in technology. Now, almost a decade into my career, I can't imagine doing anything else!
What three adjectives would you use to describe your journey in the industry so far?
Transformative, persevering, and rewarding.
What is your personal mantra?
On my first day working with my boss Ed McCallister (UPMC's senior vice president and CIO) in January 2015, he shared a quote from Ernest Hemingway: "It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters in the end." This quote has stuck with me all these years. Whenever I find myself feeling apprehensive about the future, I remind myself of this quote. I try to find joy in the journey and to trust that I am on the right path. This has empowered me to be more present, seek additional growth opportunities, and find peace in the rollercoaster that is life.
Describe the highest point in your career so far and how you got there, including all the hurdles you had to jump (and the ones you tripped over and too).
2020 has been an unprecedented and challenging year for everyone. When I started 2020, my intention for the year was to "rise" — to challenge myself to be more confident, take on new learning opportunities, and keep growing my leadership skills. Despite the pandemic, I am pleased to say that I lived up to my intention. In fact, the pandemic pushed me further than I ever imagined I could go. It stretched me outside of my comfort zone in many ways and, most importantly, the pandemic validated for me that I am exactly where I need to be working in health care IT. I have never felt more pride and gratitude to work in health care. Whether it was developing technology documentation for our staff working remotely or creating a chatbot to help assess COVID-19 exposures, I know that my work made an impact. I also was able to adapt swiftly and calmly to the changing remote work environment and came up with new ways to engage our employees and our IT leadership team. 2020 has been the highest point in my career yet — I worked hard to make an impact, took on and succeeded at many challenging new opportunities, and increased my confidence — all while working remotely during a pandemic. I am grateful for all of the extraordinary development opportunities that 2020 has brought to me.
What is your most admirable quality?
I am responsible. If you trust me to do something, I will do whatever it takes to see it through to the very end. I genuinely care so much about helping others. You can always count on me to be there to support you and to get things done!
What aspect of the industry do you think has the most potential for growth, and, on the other hand, which aspect do you think needs the most improvement?
An area that has the most potential for growth is the use of technology to improve people's lives. This has always been very apparent for those who work in the health care IT industry. I have always been inspired by the impact technology can have on enabling safe, effective, and transformative patient care. Technology is an essential and enabling service that is critical for delivering patient care — we have proven that more than ever at UPMC during the COVID-19 pandemic. I envision that the use of technology to improve people's lives will continue to grow in health care and every other industry.
Making the technology industry an inclusive place for all is an opportunity area. Diversity is what yields innovation, and we know that representation matters. This is one of the reasons why UPMC launched our Women in Technology (WIT) initiative in 2017 with support from Ed McCallister. Through our WIT efforts, we are making great strides to promote female technology career paths at UPMC and in the community. We are reaching groups, such as middle schools, high schools, colleges, post-grad, and women reentering the workforce. We also recognize the importance of having engagement and support from men. Our initiative is all about bringing together men and women to focus on this important work for the future.
When you imagine the future of the technology industry, what does it look like?
Technology will continue to be integrated into all we do. In the future, I imagine technology will continue to be seamlessly embedded into our lives. My hope is that we can find a balance that will allow for this integration without it being so all-encompassing that we lose our sense of connection with each other.
What is the most valuable life lesson you have learned so far and how has it helped you in your career?
The most valuable life lesson I have learned is the importance of believing in myself. When I began my career working in the IT industry, I struggled with self-imposed "imposter syndrome." Despite having an incredibly supportive and amazing team, I had this self-limiting belief that I did not deserve to have a seat at the table because I was young, inexperienced, and, oftentimes, the only woman in the room. With the help of my mentors, I realized that I needed to improve my confidence. To do this, I worked harder than ever before to learn, grow, and develop into the role. I started to take small steps to speak up at meetings and to go outside of my comfort zone by "raising my hand" for challenging new projects. In addition to bolstering my professional growth, I also pushed myself to remain positive and to believe in myself. I had to truly examine myself and my goals so I could get into a mindset where I could position myself for continued growth, happiness, and success. This made me recognize how important it is to believe in myself, to have courage and confidence, and to be grateful for everything around me. It was not always easy to do this, but I found that the more I believed in myself, the easier it became to be courageous and to ultimately project poise and confidence to those around me. I finally recognize how powerful it is to have this confidence. This has led me to my passion for giving back through mentorship opportunities to help other women who may struggle with what I did . This is also why I am so passionate about our WIT initiative.
What three adjectives come to mind when you think about your future path?
Impactful, inspiring, and happy.

Timing is, indeed, everything. On the day that the New York Knicks open the new NBA season, Norwegian trumpets the fact that it is now the "official cruise line" of the Knicks. Coincidence, or getting the biggest bang for your buck?
And the Knicks even co-operated, polishing off Milwaukee 90-83 in last night's season opener. No, Milwaukee doesn't have an official cruise line so that was clearly the difference…right?
This is the 40th anniversary of a once-storied NBA franchise that is coming off a division title at just the right time…for Norwegian, too. The cruise line is getting more firmly entrenched in the Big Apple with each passing year — probably starting with the arrival of the Breakaway, the "unofficial" cruise ship of New York City, early in 2013.
Yes, right about the time the Knicks were making headlines for the first time in two decades by ushering the mighty Boston Celtics from the playoffs.
And just in case you think Norwegian's next new ship, the Getaway, is going to adopt an NBA team when it hunkers down in Miami…not going to happen.
The Heat is a team owned by Micky Arison…you know, the guy who also owns Carnival.

Zaria McCall
Five-year sentence for Red Deer father who killed baby
Julian Oliver Thomson, accused in the death of his baby daughter, was sentenced to five years in prison on Tuesday morning.
Leo Paré
Nov. 6, 2012 5:37 p.m.
Julian Oliver Thomson has been sentenced to five years for killing his baby girl in a fit of rage.
Zaria McCall, four months old, died of severe head trauma in the Stollery Children's Hospital in Edmonton a few hours after her father shook her violently, crashing her head against the side of an exercise saucer, and then threw her to the floor.
The attack occurred at about supper time on Friday, Nov. 25, 2011.
Thomson, 22, pleaded guilty to manslaughter on Monday and was sentenced before Justice Earl Wilson in Red Deer Court of Queen's Bench shortly after 10 a.m. on Tuesday.
Court heard that Thomson became enraged after being unable to calm his crying baby.
Wilson, overcome by tears once while delivering his verdict and again after he was finished, admonished Thomson for trying to cast blame on the baby's mother, Victoria McCall.
The two had broken off their relationship but still lived together in a basement apartment in Red Deer so they could share parenting duties.
Wilson defined Thomson's statement to police concerning McCall's behaviour as a "gutless" attempt at shifting pressure to a grieving mother "beyond what she has had to endure with the death of her child."
Wilson said he could not understand why Thomson, who knew his baby was badly hurt, decided to wait for the babysitter instead of running to neighbouring apartments and banging on doors for help.
"A child looks to her parents for love, safety and affection. It is the court that must speak for Zaria," he said.
Members of the baby's family did not speak with reporters outside the courtroom, but issued a written statement in which they talk about the deep sadness they will bear for the rest of their lives.
"Although we wish that the sentence handed to Julian Thomson could have been longer, there is no amount of punishment that can undo this horrible, horrible crime and give us back our precious little angel," it says.
"We would like to thank (Justice) Wilson for being very thorough and explaining the basis of his decision and giving Julian the maximum sentence based on the precedent set by previous cases."
Outside the courthouse, Crown prosecutor Jason Snider explained to reporters that while manslaughter carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, each sentence must be crafted to be in proportion to those that have been given to other offenders in similar circumstances.
Snider sought a sentence of five years while defence counsel Patty MacNaughton argued for four and a half years.
Thomson received 10 months credit for the time he has served in remand since turning himself in to the Red Deer City RCMP on Dec. 1, 2011.
He was ordered to surrender a sample of his DNA and will be prohibited from owning firearms and other weapons for 10 years following his release from prison.
The McCall family is urging others who feel a need for a stronger sentences to contact the minister of justice and express their views.
"We would never wish this pain on anyone and believe that a stronger punishment would deter similar crimes in the future," they say in their statement.
They also invite donations in Zaria's name to the Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation, Suite 1502, 8215 112th St., Edmonton, Alberta, Y6G 2C8.

Olds care centre cash raised
Council backs $107.5M capital budget


The future of the technology and electronic industry seems to be moving in a greener direction, as more and more engineers and designers are starting to incorporate energy efficient and eco-friendly gadgets into their line of products. This article mentions a few of the most innovative green gadgets that were introduced on the market this year, after their debut at the International Consumer Electronics Show.
First, there is the Eco ATM Gadget Recycler, which allows you to recycle your broken or outdated electronic devices, but it also pays you for doing it. This special type of ATM is basically an automated system that uses artificial intelligence and to diagnose and evaluate the value of your electronic devices. All you have to do is place your devices into the kiosk and the ATM will analyze it in less than a few seconds, giving you an accurate quote on what the devices are worth. The collected devices are then recycled and used to make new electronic equipment.
Next, there is the Nest Self Programming thermostat, which even though looks like a normal thermostat, does a lot more. To start with, it has the unique feature of tracking and remembering the temperature settings you prefer. More than that, this thermostat uses these settings to create a personalized schedule so that it can later self-adjust the temperature without you doing anything.
Another extraordinary gadget is the SolarKindle, the first solar-powered e-reader. With a small solar panel built in the reader's cover, the SolarKindle provides you with three months of continuous reading time, assuming normal sunlight conditions. It also comes with a dual-charging reserve battery and a built-in LED light that runs unplugged, up to 50 hours. Therefore, if you are looking for a good e-reader, and you also happen to consider yourself an ecologist, technology has now found a way to connect your hobby to your care for the environment.
Marcus Vann is a technology avid blogger in South Carolina, interested mostly in finding, acquiring and reviewing the newest gadgets on the marketplace and coolest stuff produced in eco-friendly ways and for eco-friendly purposes. You can find Marcus on Google +.

New Eco-Friendly Shipping Container Office Park to Open in North Fort Worth in 2017
Oct 5, 2017 | Business
Flexible Box Office Warehouse Suites Offer Workspace Downstairs a Two-Story Office Space
FORT WORTH, TX, October 05, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ — The brightly colored development in North Fort Worth made of recycled shipping containers will feature charging stations for hybrid and electric vehicles, bike racks and a funky glowing neon sign reminiscent of old Hollywood.
Developer, Ron Sturgeon, has partnered with Hue Grant of Hue Grant Architecture to make this happen. Grant's design for the basic two-story units includes glass fronts, meeting space and ADA compliant restrooms downstairs. Upstairs will feature a space for meeting, offices, or just a comfortable area to relax for entrepreneurs who want to work through lunch or need private space to prepare before heading out on a sales call. Rents start at $875 a month.
"Shipping containers have great structural integrity, they're inexpensive and they're relatively easy to modify, even to create large open spaces," said Architect Grant, a Texas A&M graduate with more than two decades of design experience. The new business park can accommodate tenants needing spaces from a few hundred square feet to more than two thousand square feet, said Grant.
"Shipping container construction will allow us to offer space to entrepreneurs very affordably and to give them options to grow their space in shipping-container-sized increments as their business grows," said Developer Ron Sturgeon, a serial entrepreneur who owns and manages more than a million square feet of commercial space in and around Fort Worth, TX through RDS Real Estate.
Box Office Warehouse Suites is located in the heart of the Alliance business area, just north of Fort Worth, south of Alliance Airport, a stone's throw away from Interstate 35. The development will have 38-multi-use office-business suites and retail spaces, using over 100 shipping containers, with rents starting at $875. Anchor tenants already signed on are Salon & Spa Galleria, a Tarrant County-based salon chain with nine locations, and Happy Bank ATM center.

Whitney Houston Never Forgave Her Mother For Busting Up Her Lesbian Relationship
Cissy HoustonWhitney Houston
By Guy Zippers	 Last updated Mar 3, 2012
Whitney Houston supposedly hated her mother, Cissy Houston, because her lesbian relationship with her best galpal was not to her mom's taste. Both Cissy and Whitney's father, John Houston, were totally against Whitney's lesbian affair since they thought any public awareness of it would damage her career. Whitney's folks were far more concerned with the money, honey, than with their darling daughter's happiness.
And we can see how well that approach worked… NOT! All her parent's cared about was making more money and Cissy even tried to force her daughter into relationships with men for whom Whitney had no feeling. Some of the names on Cissy's 'Whitney must date list' were: Daryl Strawberry, Eddie Murphy, Arsenio Hall, and Prince.

"Whitney hated her mother for wrecking things with her 'special friend,'" discloses a pal. Author Kevin Ammons, who was the boyhood friend of Whitney's publicist in the 90′s, Regina Brown, has an insider's perspective of Whitney's family life.
He says Whitney's parents believed their daughter's relationship with another woman would destroy her career. Ammons says that Cissy hated the woman, who Whitney has known since their school days. Desperate to save Whitney from being known as a lesbian, Cissy pushed her into relationships with as many men as she could.
An insider says: "But by the late 1980′s with Whitney's career blooming her close female friend was still in the picture and practically living with Whitney – sharing hotel rooms and giving her career advice. But her galpal was jealous of every guy Whitney was meeting – and it reached a head when Bobby Brown came into her life."
Ammons writes that his girlfriend Regina the publicist heard the galpal and Whitney get into a roaring argument about Brown and Whitney told her to "Go to hell!"
Ammons says the woman hauled off and slapped Whitney's face – which was apparently witnessed by Cissy says the source. "Cissy yelled, 'What the f*ck did you put your hands on my baby for?' Then, incredibly, Whitney's mother slugged her in the face."
"Onlookers were said to have broken up the fight – and later Whitney was seen comforting her galpal lover who was crying hysterically, and telling the superstar, 'I love you baby, I just love you so much!'"
Ammons says that the woman wound up so despondent over Whitney's growing relationship with Bobby Brown that she 'even threatened suicide.'
"She said all the Houstons hated her and wanted her dead because they blamed her for people thinking Whitney was gay," says the source. "It's an often-told story that John Houston went as far as trying to hire a hit man' to beat her up."
From the Globe Print Edition, March 12.
Do you think Whitney's parents were way more concerned with their daughter's career than with her happiness? Whitney was an unhappy and unfulfilled woman for most of her life and she spent her time drunk and stoned – it killed her. Would she have been happier if she had been left alone to pursue her true romantic inclinations? Let us know what you think in the comments section.

This beautiful property is situated on a 11,807 sqft lot with ample parking on a quiet street. Two units have been fully remodeled.

On November 18th, President-elect Donald Trump selected Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) as his nominee to become the attorney general of the United States. A key responsibility of the attorney general is to oversee the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division — enforcing our nation's civil rights laws and upholding the U.S. Constitution.
The attorney general also plays a significant role in immigration enforcement and adjudication, including setting policy, through the oversight of the immigration court system and the appointment of immigration judges.
Senator Sessions has opposed civil rights legislation and led anti-immigrant efforts throughout his Senate career. His record of disenfranchising and denying the rights of people of color, immigrants, and Muslim communities, as well as his overtly racist statements made during his career as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, make him unfit for the position of attorney general of the United States.
The attached fact sheet provides a detailed account of why Senator Jeff Sessions is unfit to serve as U.S. attorney general.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled a confirmation hearing for Sessions' nomination on January 10th and 11th. Senator Sessions has submitted a woefully incomplete set of responses to the required committee questionnaire. The hearing should be delayed until Sessions has fully responded to the questionnaire.
We ask that you take action by making calls (877-959-6082) today to tell your Senators to #StopSessions from becoming the next U.S. attorney general.
Hi, my name is ____________ and I'm a constituent of Senator _________. I want Senator _________ to oppose the nomination Jeff Sessions for Attorney General.
I also want Senator _______ to demand that Sessions' confirmation hearing be delayed until Senator Sessions has submitted his full record for review. We have a right to know all relevant information before he is considered for this important position.


Cooker Hoods come in four major groups. The Canopy Hood and Integrated Hood both have the facility for cupboard space above. They can be vented. Island Hoods should be considered a feature, as they will sit in the middle of a kitchen above an island. Chimney Hoods have a variety of sub-groups, but are the most common and will provide the most choice for styles and price points.
Canopy Hood: Discrete and designed for function rather than style these simple models will do the job of a Cooker Hood but are hidden away under a cupboard. This is a Smeg KSEG77X-1.
Integrated Hood: Similar to the Canopy Hood in that they are designed to be hidden behind cupboard doors, it allows for space to be used to its fullest. This is a Bosch DHL535BGB.
Chimney Hood: A Chimney Hood provides an attractive view point in your kitchen. They descend from the ceiling to make a feature or fit between two kitchen units. This is a 60cm Hotpoint HE6TIX.
Island Hood: In large kitchens the cooking area is often central which allows for an island cooker hood to feature as a focal point centrally and often, impressively.

I just returned from my trip to Ireland! Check out the first part of my trip here, and enjoy even more of my trip on the western coast of Ireland by reading on!
As you drive along the N-59 or The Road to Clifden as the locals call it; the Lough Inagh and Maam Valley are off to your right side by side. The scenery is breathtaking in its beauty. The light changes by the minute and the shadows of the clods run across the mountains and bogs. I drove along the road towards Kylemore Abbey and managed to stop and shoot some amazing images.
If you are into fishing, Lough Inagh Lodge is a great spot to stay. Unfortunately, that's not for me. When staying at Logh Inagh I met a lovely retired couple from England. He was working locally as a gillie taking tourists out fishing on LoghInagh and also out to the Sea for those who are brave enough!
If you drive about 30 minutes northeast you will come to the village of Cong; a place made famous by the John Wayne / Maureen O'Hara movie that you may have heard of...The Quiet Man.
There is also ample opportunity to do hillwalking in the area. The western coast of Ireland is known for its mountainous scenery, and it's a perfect place to stop and take a hike!
My next stop was Kylemore Abbey. Even if you have not been to Kylemore Abbey you more than likely have seen the image of it over the years.
Kylemore was built originally by a renowned surgeon from London who was the son of a wealthy cotton business owner from Manchester. He built the original Castle for his wife and their relationship, of course, has romance and tragedy all on its own. He died in an accident on the island of Inisbofin. By the 1920s the castle had been taken over by the Benedictine Nuns from Belgium, who were seeking respite from the World War. The castle became an Abbey and a girl's school until the early 2000s. Many women from the local area went to school there!
Today, Kylemore Abbey is open for tours and has a very nice gift shop and restaurant. Of course, it is nowhere as nice as ordering from Biddy Murphy! With us, you don't have to drag your Irish goods back to your hotel, onto a plane, and then drag it through customs. When you shop on Biddy Murphy, there's no crazy hassle!
The gardens at Kylemore are also amazing and well worth the price of the entrance ticket. These days, Notre Dame University also has connections to Kylemore Abbey, as they hold classes for their students on site… what lucky students! The church at Kylemore is open to the public and is quite modern, but the chapel next to the Abbey, which you can see on the guided tour, is just the definition of scaled architecture.
You can easily spend a morning or afternoon touring the Abbey and enjoying a cuppa tea outside after your tour.
Have you ever been to Kylemore Abbey or Lough Inagh? What did you think?
Just got back last Sunday from Ireland. Visited the Abbey and was amazed at its beauty and the beauty of the shoe area. I loved everything about Ireland, can't wait to go back in the summer.
Was at kylemore in May—-beautiful——great memories of the whole area.
We'll see it in 2019. We're looking forward to it.
I loved your post. I'm hoping to see more in the future.
We visited on a beautiful Spring day. It was more beautiful in person! I would recommend getting there early before the busses arrive with tourists from Germany! They are the worst!!!

Home Carolynne Arts and Culture Review: The Golden Globes 2016
Review: The Golden Globes 2016
By Rory Mellon -

Now that the tinsel and inflatable Santas have been stored away and the New Year's hats and streamers have been collected into orange recycling bags it can only mean the start of the movie awards season, which as always got underway with the Golden Globes on Sunday 10th January (technically early Monday morning for us in the UK). It's an awards show often criticised for being indulgent and basically an excuse for famous people to stroke their own egos and even though it wasn't the most entertaining of three hour programming at the very least the winners, for once, weren't so easy to predict.
Perhaps the most surprising aspect of the night wasn't who walked away with a globe statue instead it was how poor Ricky Gervais was as a host. The British comedian returned for his fourth stint helming the show, after declaring he'd never do it again, promising a night filled with offence and outrage something he absolutely failed to deliver. His opening monologue was if anything rather dull, the most risqué joke focusing around implying the Golden Globes were awarded based on brides, and he continued this woefully poor streak throughout taking stabs at Bill Cosby and Caitlyn Jenner among other predictable fair. It was all very tame and you're likely to find more creative comedy at a local open mic night than what was delivered by a seemingly tipsy Gervais. He wasn't a bad host but seeing as he was billed as a shock MC, by both the network and himself on twitter, it was hard not to feel disappointed in the lack of bite shown.
The Golden Globes don't just celebrate the best in movies they also award the best television programmes of the year. The big winner here was perhaps Amazon with their original series Mozart in the Jungle winning Best Series Musical or Comedy and Mr. Robot (which premiered on Amazon Instant Video before being broadcast on a traditional network) winning Best Series Drama, as well as Best Supporting Actor for Christian Slater as the titular character. Critical darling The Affair took home Best Supporting Actress for Maura Tierney and Jon Hamm left with Best Actor for his performances as Don Draper in Mad Man which finished its highly successful run last year. The strangest television related moment of the night was Lady Gaga winning Best Actress in a Miniseries or Television Series for American Horror Story: Hotel, Gaga's speech was mushy and her out of breath delivery resulted in the whole thing feeling almost like a sketch show parody of an over emotional acceptance speech.
Now onto the main event, the awards for the best in cinema. I've been highly critical of the quality of movies released in 2015 but even I cannot deny how excellent the last two months of the year have been, with a slew of incredible pictures being released. This has resulted in an unexpectedly open field and there was a sense that any of the nominees could win the nights big prizes, Best Picture Drama and Best Picture Comedy and Musical. Well anything except Mad Max: Fury Road because that film is just lucky to be nominated it's so opposite to the usual type of films that are deemed suitable for awards consideration.
The only winner that I'd deem flat out unworthy would be Sam Smith's victory in the Best Original Song category for his dreary and uninspired tune "Writing's on the Wall" from Spectre. Best Original Score went to the frustratingly underwhelming The Hateful Eight while Steve Jobs rightful took home Best Screenplay. Alejandro González Iñárritu was named Best Director for the second year in a row, this time for his borderline masterpiece The Revenant, which he was more than deserving of. Could Iñárritu do the double at the Oscars next month as well?
The acting categories were fiercely competitive, except for Best Actress Drama cause mark my words Brie Larson is going to swept the board for her powerful performance in Room. Kate Winslet was named Best Supporting Actress for her role in Danny Boyle's Steve Jobs, and in a touching moment Sylvester Stallone won Best Supporting Actor for his return to the Rocky franchise in Creed, though I'd argue Mark Rylance and Idris Elba were more deserving of the honour. Much was made of films like Spy and Trainwreck being nominated, though they have zero chance of similar treatment at any other awards show, however they proved unable to topple the beloved darling that is Jennifer Lawrence who won Best Actress Musical or Comedy, the male counterpart went to Matt Damon for his turn as Mark Watney, an astronaut stranded on Mars, in The Martian.
As already noted Brie Larson took home the biggest acting prize in the form of Best Actress Drama for her part in Room, which is a remarkable film that demands to be experienced and Larson is absolutely phenomenal in it. Leonardo DiCaprio received a standing ovation as he went up to the stage to collect his globe for Best Actor Drama for his portrayal of a fur trapper left for dead in The Revenant. This is Leo's third globe but it is no secret that it's the Oscar statue that he really craves, could this be his year? Quite possibility, it's certainly the strongest chance he's had yet of finally gaining Oscar glory.
There was much controversy over The Martian being classified as a comedy, criticism that was reignited when the film was named Best Picture Musical or Comedy. Awards worthy as it may be it's hardly a comedy film and it further highlights how flawed the Golden Globes' decision to split films into two categories is. The top prize went to The Revenant, Alejandro González Iñárritu took to the stage again to accept the Best Picture Drama award. It's a film more than worthy of such plaudits and it'll be interesting to see if it can clean up in similar fashion at the Academy Awards.
The big losers of the night were unquestionable The Big Short, Carol and Spotlight. Adam McKay's comedic look at the financial crisis, The Big Short, was probably just thankful to receive so many nods, however the latter two were expected to be big contenders but both walked away empty handed. I'd be surprised if a similar thing happens in the rest of the awards season, not least of which because Spotlight is a wonderful film that deserves awards recognition, however these two critical smashes leaving empty handed shows just how wide open this awards race really is.
The Golden Globes are really just a starter, both in terms of the quality of the show itself and the significance of the accolades given out, when compared to the real deal that will take place on 28th February. Though Ricky Gervais was a bit of a lame host, the 73rd annual Golden Globes were still a reasonably enjoyable way to spend three hours as several excellent films were recognised for their brilliance.

Socceroo Arzani joins FC Utrecht on loan
By Ed Jackson Aug 7 2020 7:58PM
By Ed Jackson
Aug 7 2020 7:58PM
Socceroo Daniel Arzani's move to FC Utrecht has been completed, with the youngster joining the Dutch club on a season-long loan.
Socceroo Daniel Arzani will look to reignite his career after completing a move to Dutch club FC Utrecht.
The 21-year-old joins the Eredivisie team on a season-long loan from English Premier League giants Manchester City.
Arzani's switch is a crucial move for the youngster after a frustrating spell at Scottish club Celtic.
Having moved to Manchester City from A-League sister outfit Melbourne City following the 2018 World Cup, Arzani immediately joined Celtic on a two-year loan.
He suffered an ACL injury on his debut for the Glasgow-based club and would only play five more minutes in a Cup match for Celtic before his loan deal ended.
Utrecht technical director Jordy Zuidam said the winger had been on his team's radar for a long time.
"We've followed Daniel since his time at Melbourne City, where he made his first team debut at the age of 17," Zuidam told the club's website.
"He seemed unattainable for us for a long time, but we were finally able to strike this transfer period.
"I am happy that he is now finally here in Stadium Galgenwaard ... we look forward to seeing him in the FC Utrecht shirt."
It's not the first time young Australian talent has joined Utrecht, with Tommy Oar, Adam Sarota and Michael Zullo all joining the club in 2010.
The 2020-21 Eredivisie season kicks off on September 12 with Utrecht starting at home against AZ Alkmaar.

This week, the #SundaySupper team is celebrating spices and/or spicy food. I am a big fan of spices in general, so I just had to contribute!
I think I have a rather interesting Mojito collection on the site already and this Cilantro Jalapeño Mojito is yet another fun addition to it! I think Mojito is easily my favourit cocktail, so I am always game for trying new flavour combinations. When I made this Cilantro Jalapeño Limeade a while ago, I kept on thinking that the cilantro (that I usually call coriander) and jalapeño syrup would work great for any drink… and it did! It is sweet, fruity and earthy, with just a hint of delicious spiciness. This is an amazing mojito, trust me! Try it and let me know what you think! Cheers!
Cilantro Jalapeno Mojito - a refreshing mojito that is sweet, fruity and earthy, with just a hint of spiciness.
Put the coriander/cilantro leaves and the lime wedges in a Mojito glass (or if your muddler does not fit the Mojito glass like mine, do this in a separate bowl). Crush the coriander/cilantro and lime together to release their juices.
Fill the glass (or transfer to a Mojito glass and then fill it) with the ice cubes.
Add the rum and fill the glass with the cold coriander and jalapeño syrup. Mix well.
Decorate with a lime slice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Oh, I am definitely making this and I trust you that it's amazing! I love drinks with the sweet heat combo!
Hhmm. Jalapeno syrup! That would be terrific in Margherita. This Mojito looks super delicious. You're a very talented photographer. The photos are beautiful.
Now this would be fabulous on Cinco de Mayo, but I'd be happy to sip on it all summer long!
I love mojitos and I'm always looking for new varieties! Thanks for this awesome recipe. It would be great for margaritas too, I bet.
I LOVE Mojitos! What a fun way to add some spice to them!
