Pink Shrimp from Argentina - How do they compare?
My local market has what they are calling Argentinian Pink Shrimp. The shell appears to be thicker than Key West Pink Shrimp. Anyone ever eaten this type of shrimp? If yes, how does the taste and texture compare?
Just had these delectable shrimp from my local Kroger at $8.99 lb. RUN GET SOME if you can, they were yummy!
Bought thses today from a local market with a very good reputation. THEN I came online to check them out. Found this, which is recent, and references "wild -caught", which is what my market advertised.
I believe I have an answer for the differing opinions of this product. I was perplexed when I read this feed and wondered if palates were really so different. The vast majority believes, as I do, that this is an exceptionally delicious shrimp, but a small contingency began posting less than two years ago and consider it an inferior product.
I was getting cod at a Fred Meyer fish counter and asked the clerk if they ever stocked Argentine shrimp. He was not familiar with it so I said it was pink when raw, and he led me to some shrimp and told me it was Patagonian. I said it's Argentine shrimp. His response was unexpected. He brought out the original packaging and said this was from India.
When I told him that was impossible, as there are no cold water shrimp in tropical India, he insisted it was, indeed, the real thing. I wonder how many bogus, off tasting shrimp are being passed off as the superior product. I have no doubt that Kuei is correct about it being also brought in from China. So, buyer beware. Ask to see the original packaging. I stick with the unpeeled 2 lb original pack from Aquastar.
Publix has them right now - January - for a few weeks only while they are in season. Each year I eagerly await their arrival -- yum!
They have a strong fishy smell. They look bloomed and they taste very good.
Love. Thats all we buy now.So much more flavor!
Sam's Club carries these, that's where I first saw them, I'm definitely going to give them a try, they sound amazing!
I bought these a few times, they seem good value ($8.50 USD or $10.60 C$ a pound) and in my market Toronto Canada most shrimp come from Asia or India and I will not buy seafood from these countries. American or Gulf coast shrimp are fine but extremely rare in our shops. Northern shrimp are very tasty but popcorn size and you really can't make a fare comparison.
"Argentine red shrimp caught in Argentina's Southwest Atlantic Ocean by the industrial bottom trawl freezer fleet is on the "Avoid" list. The high amount of bycatch is a serious concern in this fishery, and it includes several at-risk species. Also, it's unknown if a bycatch reduction device aimed at minimizing the catch of juvenile hake also reduces bycatch of other species. This fleet generally freezes shrimp at sea."
This is likely the reason that Whole foods does not sell them.
I plan to eat them tonight chopped in rue over pasta.
Someone keeps insisting these are not real shrimp. THAT is a fake answer and it is also a fake response that the company that sells the shrimp is posting. I posted response that I got from the company. I don't have anything to do with the company other than buy its shrimp. Don't let the fake posting/poster deter you from enjoying this wonderful shrimp. It isn't fake shrimp, but the poster who says it is fake, is a FAKER.
What is to gain by claiming they are fake if they are not? On the other hand, there is a great deal to gain by claiming they are not fake if they really are. Face it. They do not taste, look, feel or smell like real shrimp. Decide for yourself...at your own risk.
There is a lot of information out there are Pink shrimp so it appears that perhaps someone that posted about it being "fake Shrimp" could be posting "fake news".
This answers the question for me. I love these shrimp. They defrost in only a couple of minutes, remove the shells and cook them all sorts of recipes, or put them in boiling water for about 90 seconds and you have the freshest and sweetest shrimp you can buy outside of right off the dock in South Carolina. Real shrimp, not fake anything, and not "injected or dyed" in any way.
Unfortunately, people that are marketing these fake, nasty shrimp are posting on this forum, as you see above. Don't let them mislead you. I am not buying it, and neither are my dogs. They won't eat them either.
I can't seem to get to the right web page to place an order for their shrimp. I've sent them a message and will hope to get a reply soon. So far I've have zero success in purchasing these shrimp from any source.
I use them in my low country shrimp boil. My family likes them.
Thanks Kuei. I thought they were too good to be true. The stuff we get from China and Indonesia is appalling junk and no one should be eating them. Interesting about the pink dye. I thought it may be dye, but not certain.
News flash! Real shrimp do NOT stain your fingers. Food coloring does. No, they are not from Argentina. They are from a fake shrimp factory/lab in China. They do not look like real shrimp, they do not taste like real shrimp, they do not feel like real shrimp and they do not smell like real shrimp. What does that tell you? Not real shrimp. Brought to you by the same people that brought you fake baby formula and fake eggs. By the way...you paid waaaaayyyy too much.
Also, older comments say this shrimp is not "sustainable" and I checked that out, but that isn't what I see on the link to the "sustainable seafood" site. so this is a winner.
Just bought these today in my local Safeway. east to quickly defrost in a little water, after 5 minutes took off shells etc dried and then made the best "fried" shrimp ever with simple home recipe. Apparently these just appeared recently 2017 in the store and they are as good if not better than the south carolina shrimp that I;ve been buying from Whole Foods. Excellent product.
Argentinian shrimp made an appearance at the fish department at my supermarket recently and the fish lady recommended them.....and raved and raved about them. So I bought them, curious to find out what was so great - and they were delicious. I lightly sautéed in garlic and olive oil and they had such a wonderful flavor. Different from the gulf shrimp I usually buy, they are a little sweeter, but I didn't really notice the texture to be different. They were a great find!
OMG< i's fantastic! I hate anything lse now. It's sweet, and the texture is excellent.
This shrimp is not sustainable according to Seafood Watch.
It's is on the "avoid" list. http://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations/groups/shrimp?
I tried this shrimp and had to go back the next day. After the third day I decided to buy the regular shrimp. I could not eat them compared to the Argentine's. The flavor and texture is between the shrimp and the lobster. I pan grilled for a few minutes on each side. Did not shrimp or curl up. I love this shrimp.
I normally boil them for not much longer than 3 minutes to make Prawn cocktails. I find there is a difference compared to Gulf Coast Prawns due to the texture of the Pink Shrimp being much more chewy. I am not over cooking them, I have done side by side comparisons, Argentina pink prawns don't hold a candle to Gulf prawns, there is an odd chewy texture which concerns me. I am hoping they are not being injected with Gel as they do with the prawns in China. Google it, you will never by another farm raised shrimp from China again.
I am not saying for sure the Patagonia Pinks are injected with gel just speculating about the strange texture which concerns me .
I agree. These are quite nauseating. I have seen these in different markets. Each time I see them in a different market, they have a different country of origin as their name...Patagonia, Argentina, ETC. I believe these are just fake, Chinese shrimp. The store where I first bought them has stopped selling them.
A person just posted that when they cook them, they do not curl up like regular shrimp. That should alarm you that these probably do have some sort of GEL additive, as you suggest, or they are entirely fake. Personally, I believe they are completely fake. Even lobster tail curl when you cook them.
We buy these shrimp from Lowes Foods in South Carolina and prefer them over local South Carolina Shrimp. They have a much smaller "mud vein" and do taste more like Lobster. My concern is the research that I have done online. Do they actually come from Argentina ( with their beef focus ) or are they actually just called Argentina Pink shrimp but are from China. Everything I am finding says China. If so, are they injected with CMC like the tiger prawns from Vietnam. The CMC is a gelatinous material that is made in China and shipped to Vietnam. It is injected in the tail, head and body of the shrimp to increase weight and make the shrimp appear fresher. I am looking to see if we are being duped by suppliers and that is what we are eating. My biologist son tells me that it is the case. I would love for him to be wrong, as we love these shrimp and certainly do not want to be ingesting an unknown material such as "CMC". A very scary thought.
Your "mud vein" is actually digestive waste or did you already know that?
Yes, they are from Patagonia, Argentina. I was wondering about the CMC as well because they have a strange texture, no nearly as good as Gulf Prawns.
Has your biologist son come to a conclusion regarding the CMC? I too posted the Gel in my reply before reading yours. certainly would like to know and interested in how your son knows this is the case? I will stop eating them if that is true.
Additionally, they call CMC a gel, do we know what CMC is?
I have read that the Chinese love the Argentine shrimp and are importing it for consumption. This might be why people are assuming they are exporting shrimp and claiming that they are Argentine. They are conflating the info erroneously. I hope.
I just bought these Argentina 21/25 count shrimp today and tried them. Not impressed. They have a strange flavor. Not what you would expect from shrimp. Not the typical salt taste and kind of mushy. They also look strange. Nowhere near as tasty as Gulf coast shrimp. These were only $5/pound. I did not season these. Next time I will, or just add them to salads or something. I'll have to think of something. I bought 10 pounds.
I bought a lb at safeway today for $5. They were previously frozen and raw (though this shrimp looks cooked when you buy it). I like the taste and the texture is softer then regular shrimp. Just makes them a bit different. If you don't like them just for cocktail or fried etc.....use them with regular shrimp to make a shrimp salad, or some kind of dip. Then there is always soup and chowder. I have bought this in a bigger size for considerably more money per lb. The bigger ones are more "shrimpy" and maybe more what you were expecting.
www,patagonianseafood.com the red argentinian shrimp are wild caugth, sustentainable no thawing needed m cook frozen. Preparation method: place frozen shrimp in a pot of boiling water for about 75 to 9- seconds ( max.) season or sautee with salt, olive oil, lemon juice chopped ginger, garlic, jalapenos and grated lemon peel. and tha's all folks.
Absolutely the best shrimp I've ever eaten! We had a surf & turf Christmas this year and wanted good-sized shrimp to go with the beef tenderloin I bought. Our local seafood shop recommended what they called "Argentinian lobster shrimp" and swore the were as sweet as lobster. They were big (U-15) and cost $25 from the local shop where I got them (might be cheaper at Harris Teeter or a chain store). Their shells are thicker than standard shrimp and there was a slimy, very unappealing red substance under the shell by the vein. I removed both the vein and the red stuff. The directions said to boil with seasonings for 2 minutes; I was very skeptical that these large shrimp would cook in only 2 minutes but I'm glad I followed the directions! They were perfectly cooked and, as promised, were sweet as lobster! I normally like to eat my shrimp with cocktail sauce found out that plain melted butter was the best way to go. I, too, noticed that my water, fingers and napkins turned pink from the shrimp. I thought it was odd but, boy, they were delicious!
I've choose these Argentinian shrimp because they are grown and harvested in cleaner waters than most of the shrimp that are offered here in the northeastern US. I buy them frozen from a local Italian deli. The shrimp are very large, but I have no trouble removing the shells. They are pink and do have a pungent odor, even when frozen. They are marvelous to serve as shrimp cocktail, as well a shrimp scampi.
I am so happy that I read all the comments about Pink Shrimp from Argentina. About a month ago one of my local markets had them on sale for 6.99 a pound in two pound bags. I bought 2 bags and put them in my basement freezer because I had Key West shrimp in the freezer upstairs. After reading all the comments, I am eagerly looking forward to eating the Pink Shrimp. Thank all of you.
I've been tempted to eat the pink "roe" you find when you devein them, but I'm not sure that's it truly a roe. Perhaps its the traditional digestive track but not black due to their diet. I can often find them on sale at Harris Teeter here in NC for $7.99 a pound. I like them but I must say I think Key West or fresh NC shrimp are the best flavor and texture.
The deveining does produce the black from the digestive track, not roe. In PA I pay $10 per pound.
These shrimp are excellent, we're having them for a second time tonight and just tried them yesterday. The taste is a little different then regular shrimp, their texture is completely different, not as chewy as regular shrimp. When I cleaned them I wore some gloves and there were some pink staining of the gloves, not sure why. When you remove the shells there is a pronounced coloration like a tiger prawn, like pink or red stripes. One other thing, there appears to be a "row" of sorts inside the shrimp, it's orangish in color and we removed that when cleaning. Reminded me of the orange coral you sometimes find in Maine Lobsters, though some consider it a delicacy we prefer not to indulge. I would compare the cleaned meat to rock shrimp if you ever had that. I love these things, we will definitely be buying more.
I get mines from Harris Teeter. They cost about 12.99 a pound. Everytime I go there the shrimp are available.
The pink color is due to iodine on the shell from the krill and other items.
We also get these at Harris Teeter here in Virginia. We had them tonight baked with butter and black pepper and Old Bay seasoning. Scrumptious! They are sweet, rather lobster-like and very tender. We eat the above mentioned pink gunk with no issues. I am thinking that their pinkness might be wholesome as they may have astaxanthin in them, perhaps from eating krill????? Anyway they're wonderful and not farmed (yet) so get them when you see them. To bake them: Preheat oven to 425, melt a stick of butter in a 13 x 9 pan. Put about 2 Tbsp. black pepper and Old Bay seasoning (to taste) in the butter and mix it around. Add the shrimp and stir to coat on all sides. Bake for about 15 minutes or so or until done. The ones we get are usually extra large so they take a bit longer. This is a great, easy recipe. Put newspaper on the table and eat them right out of the pan. Get a cold beer as that goes well with them. Enjoy!
Yes I purchased these from Harris Teeter. The shell is bright pink when raw and there is often dark pink "gunky stuff" along with the vein (not sure if it's edible so I discard). I gently cook these in butter or split in half lengthwise and broil for 3-4 mins. The meat is super sweet and tender. To me it compares to lobster but sweeter. Deedogg for some reason the rinse water does turn pink - I think it's just their natural coloring not a dye. They are a deep water shrimp thus the thick shell.
I also purchased my shrimp from Harris Teeter. My question is why did the water turn pink when I rinsed them....they're supposed to be wild, thus not dyed like some farm raised salmon. I don't think they taste like lobster at all. I grilled mine on the Foreman grill. I am going to try them next in brown rice, Asian style.
In my expirence, the Key West Pink is an excellent warm water shrimp. I will have the characteristic red spot on the side of the shell, the "hopper spot". The Argentine Pink is also an excellent shrimp but that is where they depart. the Argentine Pink is completely different in taste, texture and applications.
They are cold water wild shrimp caught of the Southern cvoast of Argentina. They are thin shelled and very delicate. Similar in texture to a cold water Norweigan shrimp but much bigger. The predominate size is a 16/20 count with good availability of U/15's, 21/25's and smaller.
The trick with this shrimp is in how they are prepared. They cook very fast. They are excvellent saute'd or boilled. Do not steam them, it is too hard to control the cooking time. They are fully cooked when the flesh turns from translucent to opaque. If you over cook them, the'll shrink and become chewy.
Yes, you are completely correct. Very few grovery stores carry them. Harris Teeter in the southesat carries the 16/20's.
I haven't tried those. But look into "rock shrimp" from the east coast of Florida--which might be similar to the key west shrimp you mention.
Very thick shell, and almost lobster like in taste. It's rare to find them with shell-on frozen because the shell is very thick and difficult to remove.
Wow! I'm curious to try and will definitely be on the lookout. I moved from Argentina one year ago. We were there for 3 years. I love seafood but Argentines prefer beef so it was slim pickings on the seafood. I bought and cooked shrimp a few times but was never overly impressed with them. I'm going to be on the lookout for these.
Yes I have eaten the Argentina shrimp they are sweeter than your regular shrimp almost like lobster very tasty. Yes, a little thicker in the shell so you if you cook them with the shell on cook them a little longer then other shrimp. Also, I've gotten my shrimp from Harris Teeter.
Actually, I work for a company that imports these Shrimp You DO NOT want to overcook them as they get mushy very easily. Just boil or steam for a couple of minutes or until flesh is firm.
I haven't had them, but I've heard other rave about the ones you can sometimes ffind frozen at Trader Joe's. They never stay in stock very long, so I'd give them a go.

Number of Talent in TV Ads Can Positively Influence Overall Ad Performance
A "more is more" approach to incorporating talent in a Commercial TV commercial drives better site visits and conversions.
Advertisers should heed caution for voiceovers and speaking roles, where the "less is more" approach yields favorable results.
Voiceover gender matters, with female voices evaluated higher than their male counterparts.
Research suggests specific combinations of ad creative elements produce specific outcomes and sentiment.
Is there such a thing as too many actors in a television commercial? Or too many speaking roles? We investigated the many creative elements that contribute to a high-performing commercial in our Video Vitals: What Makes the Perfect CTV Commercial? report, which analyzed over 1,800 ads across ad length, tone of voice, emotion, number of scenes and more.
Treading the Fine Line Between the Number of Actors Versus Speaking Roles
Casting talent can take up a chunk of a brand's CTV commercial budget, yet advertisers have traditionally had difficulty quantifying the impact of casting decisions. The Video Vitals report findings provided insight into this, and revealed that brands should lean towards including more talent to feature in their commercials, as it has a positive correlation with both visit and conversion rates: both 15- and 30-second commercials saw peak performance when six or more actors were present throughout the creative.
While CTV's popularity explosion has been a success story, it can be a complex market thanks to However, brands should also pay close attention to the number of speaking roles in their commercials as much as the number of casted talent. The "more is more" approach does not apply to the number of speaking roles. In fact, Connected TV commercials perform best when only around 50% of the on-screen talent have lines in a scene.
Gender Bias Exists in Television Commercials
Casting a certain number of talent in a commercial can work in advertisers' favor, and as the scope of research is expanded into other studies, it's clear that the type of talent matters too. Take gender as an example. Analysis reveals biases can surface within television advertising. Research conducted in 2017 by Advertising agency J. Walter Thompson and the Geena Davis Institute analyzed 10 years' worth of audio and video content. It revealed that there are twice as many male characters as female characters in advertising. Additionally:
25 percent of ads feature just men, while only five percent of ads only feature women.
18 percent of ads feature only male voices, while less than three percent of ads feature only female voices.
Women in ads are mainly between 20-40 year old age range, while male characters are featured across a wider age range.
Women characters are 48% more likely to be shown in a kitchen scene, and male characters are 50% more likely to be shown at a sporting event.
Female Voice Overs Can Prove More Effective
Although female presence and portrayal has been underrepresented, they don't fall short where voiceovers are concerned. A study conducted by the University of Strathclyde screened two types of advertisements—non-intimate products typically purchased by the female in the household (e.g. detergent, fabric softener etc) and intimate products that a female would buy for herself (e.g. cosmetics, deodorant)—to a sample audience of 79 women using both a female and male voiceover for each type of product. The results were then scored across a semantic differential scale.
Overall, the female voice was evaluated as more trustworthy, friendly and reliable, however, male voices scored higher across dominance for the non-intimate product (70 for the male versus 59 for the female voice). Additionally, the male voice scored higher on authoritarianism for the non-intimate ad (55 versus 37).
Similarly, another study conducted by CXL Institute, a premium marketing education provider, recruited 202 participants around the U.S., testing a promotional video using both female and male voice-overs. They were asked to evaluate both genders across traits like trustworthiness and attractiveness. Overall, participants trusted female voices more, and the professional male voice-over was rated least attractive.
This hypothesis was validated further when taking out visual cues completely, as research from Westwood One and Veritonic over 164 industry-winning video ads across a panel of 6,003 consumers found that female voiceovers outperformed across positive perception metrics like authenticity, happiness and uniqueness.
More actors drive better performance, however a "less is more" approach is preferred for speaking lines. When casting talent for their Connected TV commercials, advertisers should consider the gender biases that exist, as well as the emotive effects of female versus male voiceovers in their ad creative.

Essentials of Marketing Communication Using Coca Cola as an Example
Coca-Cola is an example of a company that is dependant upon its brand trademark and distinctive name. Amazingly the beverage production company reported 23.4 billion dollars in sales in 2009 that are significantly dependant upon the brand "Coke", which was added to the trademarks in 1945. Every innovative idea is tied to the power legacy of the brand mark.
Somewhere along the line every idea has been transformed from thought to commerce and this process is now referred to as marketing. Marketing was a very murky sea in the beginning of the 1900's. Around 1895 marketing and advertising became a mission and function of the company's strategy for increasing sales. Hilda Clark, who was considered a celebrity, became the spokesperson for the company. She was a Music Hall performer who was paid to talk about Coca-Cola and appeared in ads dressed up eloquently sipping the beverage. (Coca-Cola, 2010)
As the popularity of the brand grew Coca-Cola realized a noteworthy concern in marketing that still leads strategy today "ownership." At this time in history entrepreneurs were grasping the concept and turning it into revenue. Henry Ford did not invent the automobile; he licensed a patent and called the brand "Ford" taking ownership just as the second owner of Coca-Cola did in 1892. The commonality between all businesses and what Henry Ford became aware was competition. Companies like Coca-Cola already expanded into distribution in Dallas, Chicago and New York and were well aware of competitors who wanted any portion of their revenue. By the time the first Model-Ts rolled of the assembly line imitation and substitution concepts were well under way. Other soft drink beverages popped up "cheaper" and Coca-Cola pressed on with a campaign as genuine to prevent proliferation of the beverage to copycats. Henry Ford used the Model T to take ownership in the same way as he exclaimed ownership of the brand by publically saying, "You can have any color you want as long as it's black." (Marketing History, 2010)
A role of marketing was now defined to the business owner and the role of marketing remains a single most important aspect of business function. Just as Ford, Pemberton and Chandler became the marketing gurus of their product, most companies today (and even start-up entrepreneurs) consider it to be one of their most important functions. Coke has six functional divisions, Marketing is one of them (2010) The marketing headquarters in Atlanta is responsible for driving sales through promotions, marketing and advertising. Actual advertising is outsourced. Coca-Cola has a policy to manage by objectives and the objective of the company is to be the most recognized brand of non-alcoholic beverage in the world and many say this is accomplished already.
A company does not grow to be a world leader without infrastructure and leadership and the marketing leadership has decided that it is time for a change. According to Wendy Clark, Senior VP of Marketing for Coca-Cola it is time for a deep-shift. (RM Blog, 2010) Ms. Clark explains that the goal in 2011 and the target of the department is to find a "liquid and linked" market. This likely means a significant push toward markets like China, Brazil and Iraq where either money is now flowing or new markets are emerging. This will also mean a push for Coca-Cola products that are non-carbonated and a product push for Coke's global core brands that are continually expanding even into bottled water, tea and coffee. Coca-Cola offers over 3,300 products in over 200 countries. (Coca-Cola, 2010) The brand name appears somewhere on the product, but even where countries are more likely to enjoy beverages other than the carbonated Coke, they too are often referred to as "Coke." In some countries and even in domestic states soft drinks are referred to as a "coke." Historically Coke was such a brand word in the 1900s that the word "pop" likely appeared to diminish the Coke brand when the opening of all soda cans made a pop noise. Faygo tried to coin the word "pop" in the early 1900s to take away the significance of the brand distinction "Coke", but Coca-Cola was established beyond this reach in the market. (The Free Source, 2010)
Coca-Cola has filed numerous of trademark lawsuits in its history, however recently significant theory of legal protection enforcement exemplifies the importance the company still places on the trademark. In 2007 the company launched a marketing campaign based on an imaginary lawsuit claiming that Coke Zero infringed on the trademark taste of Coca-Cola. (Lexus Nexus, 2010) The "joke" filing was so significant that attorneys all over the world chimed in on their blogs and websites that Coke had created a plausible legal situation.
One might wonder why this history of marketing is significant to the branding power and significance to the company Coca-Cola. In 1985 one of the most significant and historical case in point occurrences of branding legacy rocked the field of marketing and advertising. Coke introduced the new product called "New Coke." What happened next is the entire scope of this paper; Coke was forced to bring back the old product after the public shunned the new product begging for the old brand. Coca-Cola brought back the brand, which still stands strong today, "Coca-Cola" classic, now marketed as the original formula. (2010) This consumer based overthrow of marketing is likely the most influential and substantial lesson ever revealed in the history of marketing.

Here we have a Rolex SeaDweller 16600 For Sale with full box and papers.
The Rolex SeaDweller 16600 has become a very in demand watch since Rolex ceased production and replaced it with the huge 116600 Deap Sea Seadweller. This has resulted in the Rolex 16600 being seen as the last of the classic seadwellers and prices have continued to rise since withdrawal. Collectors have these marked as strong long term investments and as always the 'full package' watches are the ones in demand. This is a lovely set Rolex Sea-Dweller with original box, papers, booklets and tool kit.
A W serial watch from 1994 means this is also the classic tritium dial and not one of the later luminova dials.
Previous owner advised the watch had been serviced but they did not have the paperwork, just the Rolex Service booklet you are provided with post service. It would not surprise me if it was though as the watch is keeping great time and is in excellent all round condition with a mint dial, hands and insert, lovely clean mark free case and bracelet.
Giveaway price for very quick sale.
Dial & Hands: Excellent original tritium Rolex Seadweller dial with matching tritium hands and white gold hour plots.
Case & Caseback: "W" serial with all numbers clear between the lugs. Rolex caseback is correctly stamped.
Box & Papers: Comes with original boxes, papers, booklets and tool kit.

Q: Overriding default magento exception handler How would I aproach this? Everything I found so far informed me about extending magento exception handler, although I want to override, or if it's not possible then call my custom handler when exception is thrown / error is found, the default magento exception handler so I can do and print whatever I want, where should I start?

A: You can enable/disable showing some exceptions in root directory, index.php file. Just comment if statement and leave what is between brackets:
if (isset($_SERVER['MAGE_IS_DEVELOPER_MODE'])) {
    Mage::setIsDeveloperMode(true);
}

also, you can use:
ini_set('display_errors',1);

Viewing and then subsequently stopping Recorded TV programs that are in-progress (real-time) will not save a Kodi bookmark indicating the last played position. This is a Kodi 18 "Leia" platform limitation; only non-real-time streams are eligible for bookmarking.
There is no known workaround for this concern; the functionality simply doesn't work in Kodi 18 "Leia".
Audio-only channels accessed via the PVR client may not stream properly. There are reports of the stream not starting, starting but ending prematurely, and locking up Kodi. Unfortunately I do not have access to streams of this data type and am currently unable to work the issue. This problem appears to be more prevalent on DVB-based systems as opposed to ATSC/QAM systems.
If you have this issue and are using the HDHomeRun DVR service, please contact me. If user(s) can provide short recordings of these channels from their DVR engine as samples for me to examine I'm confident that a solution can be reached.
The PVR Client regularly scans the available HDHomeRun devices for channel lineup changes. When a new channel is discovered it will be added to the Kodi channel list and have an entry in the Electronic Program Guide (EPG), but there will be no data available in the EPG. This situation also applies during Kodi startup, if new channels are discovered they will not have any EPG data (A workaround was put in place to specifically deal with the first time the PVR is started and the database is empty, however). There may also be a number of errors in the Kodi log along the lines of "invalid channel or channel doesn't have an EPG".
The problem is that when a channel is added to Kodi's database dynamically by the PVR Client (API: TriggerChannelUpdate), there is currently no means for Kodi to create the associated EPG constructs, necessitating a restart of the internal PVR Manager either by shutting down and restarting Kodi or clearing the PVR data through the PVR Settings interface.
To work around this issue, please shut down and restart Kodi after the new channel(s) have been detected and appear in the Kodi 'Channels' list.
When a new channel has been discovered by the PVR Client, it may not be possible to access that channel for Live TV streaming right away. This situation arises as a result of the HDHomeRun RECORD storage engine not knowing about the new channel yet. All Live TV streams are routed through the HDHomeRun RECORD storage engine when one is available to provide timeshifting and tuner device scheduling/sharing capabilities.
To work around this issue, just wait longer -- the HDHomeRun RECORD engine will eventually detect the new channel. In my experience it usually only takes a few minutes for it to catch up with a channel lineup change.
These are expected as this PVR Client does not implement all of the possible timer types available in Kodi. Specifically this PVR Client does not implement "Manual" (time-based) Kodi timer types, which is the root cause of the error message. The way the HDHomeRun DVR backend service currently works prevents scheduling a timer based on nothing more than a date and time, which would be required to implement the missing Manual timer types.
This Issue has been resolved in Kodi "Leia" 18.2. The error message will still appear in all Jarvis and Krypton releases, as well as Leia releases prior to v18.2.

Ostensibly, Otto was the pope's chief protector, but within the year, discovering John XII conspiring against his growing power, Otto marched into Rome and replaced him with Leo VIII.

Who Was Charlemagne?
Crowned as Holy Roman Emperor
Events Leading to Emperor Charlemagne
Unifying The Roman Empire
Questions of Authority
Charlemagne was King of the Franks from 768, King of the Lombards from 774 and Holy Roman Emperor from 800. He united much of western and central Europe during the early Middle Ages. He was the first recognized emperor to rule from western Europe since the fall of the Western Roman Empire three centuries earlier. The expanded Frankish state that Charlemagne founded is called the Carolingian Empire. He was later canonized by the pope.
See full list on christianity.com
When the people of western Europe awoke on this day, December 26, 800, they had an emperor again. On Christmas Day, as King Charles of France knelt in prayer before the altar of the church of St. Peter's in Rome, Pope Leo III suddenly placed a golden crown on his head. The Roman people shouted three times, "To Charles Augustus, crowned by God, the great and pacific emperor of the Romans, life, and victory!" Charles was reverenced by the pope and called Emperor and Augustus, after the manner of the leaders of ancient Rome.
What led up to this dramatic event? Three hundred years and more had passed since the collapse of the Roman Empire in western Europe. Many elements were at work. For one thing, the popes owed the Franks a great debt for their preservation in recent years. Charles Martel had turned back the Muslim invasion of Europe and Peppin had subdued the Lombards. Another reason for the pope to crown Charles was to show Rome's independence from the Greek Empire in Constantinople. Since the days of Constantine in the fourth century, the eastern part of the Roman Empire had increased in authority and power. In Charles, King of the Franks, the pope had found a new Constantine to head a revived western empire.
To be sure, Charles was an empire-builder. He had become master of the French kingdom in 768 and used his military might to forcibly bring the German tribes under his authority, forcing them to accept baptism and become Christians. His cruelty has been blamed for the Viking invasions which troubled Europe for over a century. His dominion stretched from the Baltic Sea to the British Channel to Rome itself. Charles worked diligently to provide a good, unified organization for his vast empire. When King Charles returned to France after being crowned emperor, he forced his subjects to take an oath to him as Caesar. He re-established the Roman Empire on a Teutonic base.
The coronation of Charles sparked much debate during the middle ages. At issue was what relationship of the church to state. Did the act of crowning the emperor show the pope's superior authority as the giver of the empire to King Charles? Charles didn't think so. He continued to rule as the divinely appointed protector of the church, appointing bishops as well as counts to office. He was not only the first but possibly the greatest of the emperors from the eighth through the nineteenth century. He restored education, improved law, supported the church, backed Alcuin's attempts to produce an accurate Bible and in many other ways did much that was good. In France, his name was blended with his greatness, and he is known as Charlemagne. Bibliography: 1. Based on an earlier Christian HistoryInstitute story. 2. Bell, Mrs. Arthur.

Jun 24, 2019 · Charlemagne, 'Father of Europe' and First Holy Roman Emperor. Without Charlemagne's tremendous achievements, the progression and development of medieval Europe might not have been what we have come to revere, including the cornerstone of art, architecture, literature, commerce, and education. Charlemagne's trusted advisor, Einhard, ostensibly recorded most of Charlemagne's moderate feats as well as others with some embellishment.

www.mentalfloss.com › article › 562913
HIS FATHER WASN'T BORN A KING. Charlemagne's father, Pepin III—often called Pepin the Short—was mayor of the palace (administrator of the royal court) before he was named the first King of the Franks.
HIS BROTHER DIED SOON AFTER BECOMING CO-KING. After Pepin III died, Charlemagne shared power with his younger brother Carloman, with the two acting as joint kings.
HE IS CONSIDERED THE FATHER OF EUROPE. As the King of the Franks, Charlemagne set out on an ambitious and bloody campaign to expand his territory. By the time of his death in 814, this kingdom included the majority of what is now considered Western, and some of Central, Europe.
BEING CROWNED EMPEROR MAY HAVE BEEN A SURPRISE. Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne emperor at Christmas mass in 800. Charlemagne had arrived in Rome a few weeks earlier at the request of the pope, but by many accounts, including that of his court scholar Einhard, he was not expecting his new role, and only realized what was happening when the pope put the imperial crown upon his head.

Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire

I guess Mr. Cruise is still considered by women to be a hot sell in the market, that is if we're going to use Livia Scott's recent YouTube video as a gauge to measure Tom's marketability at least.
The actress/comedienne just released a video wherein she gives the Mission: Impossible actor 10 things that make her the perfect candidate for being the next Mrs. Cruise. Personally, I think she made some pretty good points. She actually got me sold with numbers —wait, I don't think it'd be right for me to – never mind.
Anyway, you can check out Livia's proposal below and you be the judge yourself if she does indeed have the right stuff to satisfy the needs (and demands) of Hollywood's Mr. Top Gun.

Fintan McKeown on Amory Lorch & Death By Bear
Jan Gilbert Nov 21, 2013 Game of Thrones Interviews TV
He may only have been with us for four episodes, but actor Fintan McKeown left his mark on Game Of Thrones as Lannister bannerman and knight Amory Lorch.
During his time on the show, Lorch killed Night's Watch recruiter Yoren while trying to track down Gendry, misdirected a Lannister letter to a vassal of House Stark, and was just a poison dart away from landing Arya in hot water after he discovered her with a letter stolen from Tywin.
This weekend at Collectormania, Flicks And The City caught up with Fintan to find out about his experience of working on the hit HBO show.
Check out our video to see Fintan tell us about his Game of Thrones horse Spikey, learning to ride for the show, working with Charles Dance and Maisie Williams, filming in dark caverns, what he thought about his death by poison dart, Amory vs the bear, who he'd bring back to life on the show, working with GoT co-star Mark Addy on BBC fantasy show Atlantis, and his role in the TV mini-series The Bible.
The Emmy-nominated mini-series The Bible makes its UK debut on Channel 5 on 30 November, and is available on Blu-ray and DVD from 26 December.

It is important to find a balance between focusing on what we want to create and putting limitations on what is possible. Sometimes, we are so attached to a particular outcome or solution, we can't see that there is something much broader on offer; something that would be high above our own expectations and yet benefit many more people than ourselves. This is when aiming for the highest good of all involved is of utmost importance; especially if we really have no idea what this could look like.
We know our thoughts matched with our emotions are extremely powerful; both positive and negative have an enormous impact on our reality. We know that when we focus on one aspect, be it high or low vibrational, we get more of the same. We are waking up; we are seeing what is really possible and in expanding our awareness, we are also expanding our own possibility. We are finally breaking out of the boxes created by childhood, fear, expectations of others and society. We are finally stepping into our own authentic selves.
And the Angel Of The Universe is here to remind us that there is no reason to hold back on what we believe to be possible. We are part of a much larger plan; a much larger existence. We are vessels of so much light and we are capable of so much love. In letting go of the restrictions we have placed on ourselves in the past, we open up to an even brighter future.

APA supports AMA and RACS calls for national surgery plan
The Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA) supports calls by the Australian Medical Association (AMA) and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) for all levels of Government to develop a national plan addressing the growing and increasingly critical backlog of elective surgeries.
The AMA and RACS highlighted new Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) data, showing Australians are now waiting even longer for essential surgery.
In 2021, the APA released its landmark Economic Value of Physiotherapy report, which showed that physiotherapy is a valuable and cost-effective alternative to other more costly interventions, such as surgery for osteoarthritis, and as a complementary therapy for pre- and post-surgery interventions.
Physiotherapy results in quality of life improvements, such as reduced pain, burden of disease and longer life expectancy, increased mobility and avoided costs of healthcare. Avoided costs attributable to physiotherapy, result in savings to multiple funding sources including private insurers, State and Federal compensable schemes and State and Federal healthcare systems.
APA National President Scott Willis said physiotherapy has a vital role in providing vital healthcare across a range of conditions and throughout the life cycle.
"The AMA and RACS rightly point out that many patients waiting for surgery are in pain and the delays in surgery can have devastating consequences," Mr Willis said.
"Physiotherapy mitigates the risk of birth trauma, reduces the impacts of disability on community participation, contributes to the management of chronic diseases and emergency healthcare, prevents and rehabilitates workplace injuries to reducing the risks and ramifications of falls in aged and ageing populations.
"For some people waiting in line for surgery, physiotherapy may offer valued interventions, especially for patients with osteoarthritis of the knee and hip and those using orthopaedic outpatient services.
"Treatments by physiotherapists deliver both health and economic benefits. Interventions are clinically effective and deliver net economic benefits, with quality of life improvements exceeding treatment costs.
"Physiotherapy has the power to enhance quality of life, improve health outcomes and offer best value for money in the allocation of scarce resources.
"Australia's current health funding systems does not always support good practice, provide best value for the health dollar or deliver best outcomes for patients, clients and consumers. Physiotherapy is currently undervalued and under-utilised and we have an important role to play in supporting the AMA and RACS in the care of patients on surgery waiting lists.
"Physiotherapy is a critical and essential service for all Australians. It's time to publicly fund it. Investment in public funded physiotherapy will advance health, improve care, and increase value," Mr Willis said.
The Economic Value of Physiotherapy report highlights the benefits that physiotherapy delivers for people on orthopaedic waiting lists, including benefits in independent living, social relationships, and psychological wellbeing, supporting the calls made by the AMA and RACS.

« Profile in courage: Cardinals prospect Bob Slaybaugh
High hopes got dashed for Andy Rincon with Cardinals »
The day Roger Wehrli got the edge on Charley Taylor
March 14, 2022 by retrosimba
Wide receiver Charley Taylor and quarterback Sonny Jurgensen were in sync, able to connect in a city often associated with disconnection. So when they botched a play in a key game against the St. Louis Cardinals, it was unusual and costly.
With the Washington Redskins, Taylor was "the man who had given more headaches to cornerbacks than any pass catcher to play the game," according to the Washington Post.
His ability to consistently rack up receptions made him one of the franchise's most popular players. As Sports Illustrated noted, "It would have surprised hardly anyone at a Georgetown dinner party to hear Henry Kissinger, with his mouth full of caviar canapes, discoursing about the grace of Charley Taylor."
A player who held the NFL record for career receptions (649) when he retired after the 1977 season, Taylor competed in 22 games versus the Cardinals. He caught 78 passes against them, but it was one he didn't catch that became perhaps the most noteworthy.
Multiple skills
Charley Taylor was born and raised in Grand Prairie, Texas, an aircraft manufacturing hub located 14 miles west of Dallas. His mother, Myrtle, was a chef, butcher and restaurant owner and his stepfather, James, built airplane parts, according to the New York Times.
A local grocer, R.B. Clarke, who had connections to Arizona State University, arranged for Taylor to meet the school's football coach, Frank Kush, who offered a scholarship.
Taylor excelled as a running back at Arizona State and hoped to be drafted by the NFL's Dallas Cowboys so he could play near home. When a college roommate informed him he was taken by Washington with the third overall pick in the first round of the 1964 draft, "I actually rolled over in bed and started crying because I wanted to go to Dallas so bad," Taylor told the Associated Press.
Swift and sure-handed, Taylor excelled at running back for Washington his rookie season in 1964, rushing for 755 yards, catching 53 passes and scoring 10 touchdowns in 14 games.
About midway through the season in 1966, coach Otto Graham moved Taylor from running back to wide receiver. Taylor initially resisted the move but discovered the position change "gives me the opportunity to do what I do best _ catch the ball and run with it," Taylor told the Associated Press.
Taylor and Bobby Mitchell gave Washington a pair of elite receivers as targets for quarterback Sonny Jurgensen. All three were destined for election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame
Taylor said Mitchell and assistant coach Ray Renfro, a Browns receiver when Graham quarterbacked them, were influential in his transformation.
"They knew I had the knack for catching the ball," Taylor said to the Associated Press. "What they had to teach me was to run patterns. That's the difficult thing _ reading defenses and running good patterns."
Taylor led the NFL in receptions in 1966 (72) and 1967 (70).
Mitchell, who also had started his NFL career as a running back before shifting to receiver, told Sports Illustrated, "Charley would always get the double coverage. I had some big days because people said Charley Taylor wasn't going to beat them."
All mixed up
Taylor, 33, and Jurgensen, 40, were in their 11th season together when Washington (4-2) faced the Cardinals (6-0) on Oct. 27, 1974, at Busch Memorial Stadium in St. Louis.
Though the Cardinals defeated Washington in the second week of the season and were atop the NFC East Division, Taylor said, "We still feel Dallas is the team we have to beat."
Pinned to a bulletin board in the Cardinals' locker room, Taylor's quote was viewed as "an affront to our pride," Cardinals defensive tackle Bob Rowe told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Taylor was matched in the game against cornerback Roger Wehrli, another future Pro Football Hall of Famer. When the Cardinals drafted Wehrli out of Missouri in the first round in 1969, it was partly because it was thought he had the speed to cover receivers such as Taylor.
On the game's opening drive, Washington advanced to the Cardinals' 48-yard line before Jurgensen attempted a pass. On first-and-10, he called for Taylor to run an out pattern to the sideline.
Taylor ran the route correctly, but Wehrli had him covered. Taylor adjusted, turning up field, but Jurgensen didn't adjust his pass. He threw before Taylor broke free of Wehrli.
"I was throwing the ball away," Jurgensen told the Post-Dispatch.
Instead, he threw it into the hands of Wehrli, who moved forward, rather than follow Taylor, when he saw Jurgensen release the ball. "I just kept coming and there was no one there but me," Wehrli told the Post-Dispatch.
Wehrli streaked 53 yards down the sideline, converting an interception into a touchdown for the first time in his NFL career. His only other interception return for a touchdown was in 1979 against Tommy Kramer of the Minnesota Vikings. Wehrli totaled 40 interceptions, all for the Cardinals.
St. Louis won the game, 23-20, improving to 7-0 and moving three games ahead of Washington in the division standings. Video and Game Stats
"The Cardinals made the big plays," Jurgensen said to the Post-Dispatch. "Now they're in the driver's seat. It was a key game. We had to have it, and they got it."
St. Louis and Washington each finished 10-4 in the regular season and each lost in the first round of the playoffs.
Taylor remains the Washington franchise leader in career touchdowns scored (90) _ 11 rushing and 79 receiving.
Of his 79 touchdown catches, 53 came on throws from Jurgensen, 21 from Billy Kilmer, two each from Randy Johnson and Jim Ninowski and one from Joe Theismann. The touchdown pass to Taylor was the first of Theismann's NFL career.

All four NFC playoff qualifiers in 1974 finished the regular season with 10-4 won-loss records.

Thanks for the info. The Vikings and Rams were the other NFC teams that joined the Cardinals and Redskins in the 1974 playoffs. The Vikings beat the Rams for the NFC championship.

Sundays with my grandfather there was "Wrestling at the Chase", and then either Cardinals baseball or Big Red football. Wonderful memories. I got to thinking about something that Dan Dierdorf once said about the rivalries we had against Dallas and Washington. With Dallas, even though it was very intense, he said that both teams had the utmost respect one for another. But with Washington, he said it was built on hate. They hated us and we hated them.

Terrific comments, Phillip. Thanks for sharing those warm memories of Sundays with your grandfather. The Dan Dierdorf remarks are insightful.

In the left-field bleachers, at those mid-1970s Big Red-Redskin games, there were more than a few "George Allen Sucks" t-shirts.

Michael Farber of the Montreal Gazette wrote, "George Allen would foster an us versus them mentality among his players, and paranoia can be a blunt instrument when used by a razor-sharp mind as Allen's."

Another great story Mark! Hart and company ran out the last five or six minutes of the clock to preserve the victory if I recall. George Allen even paid the Cardinals some compliments after the game!
on March 15, 2022 at 6:54 am | Reply retrosimba
Thanks, Bob. You're correct. With 6 minutes left in the game and the Cardinals ahead by 3, they had the ball on their 11-yard line and kept possession with a drive until the clock ran out.
After the game, George Allen, in remarks to the Post-Dispatch, said of the Cardinals, "They're well-coached, they're aggressive, they're playing with intensity and they're going to be tough to catch."

Man, The Big Red were so entertaining back then. Such a shame Bidwill was such a jerk and broke up the team. And even worse, moving them to AZ.

Well-said. Those Don Coryell Cardinals were something special and owner Bill Bidwill ruined it.

By Robert M. Holley (Washington, DC, Dec. 22, 2011) — The Party of Justice and Development (PJD) is described as a "moderate" Islamist political party in large measure because its platform focuses on economic growth and jobs, social development, justice, accountability, and transparency in government. It doesn't support what many regard as "Islamist" positions — such as imposing Islamic law on the government or society.
Indeed, PJD leaders call themselves a political party with an "Islamic reference." It is more useful to compare it with the Christian Democrats in Europe than extreme "Islamists" like the Taliban in Afghanistan or mullahs in Iran. Another helpful comparison is the governing PJD party in Turkey, which also has an "Islamist" reference but operates within the strong secular norms of Turkish society.
Most Western news reports have failed to examine the differences and national circumstances that distinguish the Islamist movements in countries like Morocco, Tunisia, and Egypt.
The PJD in Morocco has less in common with groups like the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt than one might assume from the popular press. It has experience governing in legislative and executive offices of key cities and regions inMorocco. It functions in an open, competitive political environment in Parliament with at least eight large, well-developed parties among more than thirty that contested the recent election. PJD leaders know they need to cooperate with other parties if Morocco is to meet the needs of its citizens. With 107 seats in Parliament, the math of reaching a stable 200+ seat majority makes cooperation a political imperative.
They are committed publicly to finding common ground with these parties, and must do so in the context of a Moroccan society that has an established middle class largely committed to secular values, a vibrant civil society, and a market-oriented economy tied to its prosperous tourist industry. To attempt any dramatic course change would surely provoke very swift and substantial resistance.
Finally, the PJD-led government will have to lead in the context of Morocco's forward-thinking and popular King Mohammed VI, who has already initiated more than a decade of widely supported economic, social, and political reforms. He also remains, under Morocco's new Constitution, Commander of the Faithful with final say over all religious affairs. The PJD accepts the King's role, as well as the reforms he spearheaded, including Morocco's Family Law code granting greater rights to women.
This is the context and common ground within which the PJD will lead in Morocco. Indeed, after meeting with the King and receiving his appointment as Head of Government, PJD leader Abdelilah Benkirane assured Moroccans his job was to find jobs for his people—not provide commentary inside the mosque or tell them how to run their personal lives.
Economic growth, jobs, education opportunities, good governance, and fighting corruption are the measures by which PJD's success will be judged. Expectations are high. The PJD has already made clear it intends to continue to strengthen Morocco's very good relations with the US and Europe, as well as focus more attention on sub-Sahara nations and their partners in North Africa. Better regional relations, especially with Algeria, are key for ending the impasse on the Western Sahara, which the PJD is firmly committed to maintaining underMorocco's sovereignty.
The PJD has developed a reputation since its founding in 1998 for taking very seriously its responsibilities in Parliament and local government. Moroccan voters will hold it to its word.

Culture and Trade through the Prism of Technical Art History: a study of Chinese Export paintings
The Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) has a large collection of Chinese export paintings from the 18th and 19th Century painted by artisans from Canton and other Chinese ports, often sold as souvenirs to Europeans and later Americans. They typically depict contemporary life in China, illustrating the various trades, costumes, boats, birds, insects and plants aimed at satisfying foreign customers and their curiosity (and perception) of China.
These paintings are valuable for the study of trade and cultural exchange between Britain and China in the 18th and 19th Century. There is considerable interest in these paintings among researchers studying the economic and cultural history, international trade and cultural exchange of that epoch both within the UK and internationally.
A number of museums, libraries and charities in the UK have similar collections. Internationally, collections of this type exist in continental Europe, Russia, America and Asia. While the majority were painted as souvenirs for tourists, some were painted for scientific research, documentation of 'industrial arts' and other professional interests.
The Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) owns a large collection of early 19th Century Chinese watercolour paintings of plants known as the Reeves Collection. These were commissioned by the RHS. Chinese artisans in Canton and Macau were supervised by the RHS representative John Reeves to accurately paint plant species to serve as a plant catalogue. This collection is different in that the paintings were scientific drawings and they were well documented in the RHS Minutes as well as being intermittently recorded in Reeves' two notebooks. The paintings are, therefore, confidently dated. The paper substrates were largely imported from England (watermarked Whatman paper) and the watermarks agree with the documented dates. Reeves also recorded the names of the artists which was rare for Chinese export paintings.
A systematic study of the painting techniques and materials related to these paintings will not only give a fuller picture of these objects but also help us understand the extent of trade and cultural exchange between China and Europe.
Addressing the Challenge
While there is considerable curatorial interest in the historical study of Chinese export paintings, there have been relatively few studies involving scientific analysis. This is not surprising because paper-based works of art are fragile and the paint layers are rather thin making it impossible to take samples without causing significant damage, which is why most institutions, especially libraries, do not allow samples to be taken from paper-based objects. Consequently, destructive scientific analysis can only be conducted on residuals fallen off the paintings, which may not be representative of the objects on the whole. With the development of imaging science and technology, it is increasingly possible to conduct effective scientific examination non-invasively.
This project addressed art history and conservation research questions through the application of novel imaging technology developed by the ISAAC Research Centre at Nottingham Trent University in past research council funded projects (such as multispectral imaging, microfade spectrometry and optical coherence tomography) in combination with complementary non-invasive spectroscopic techniques such as Raman microscopy and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy.
The Second workshop on Culture and Trade through the Prism of Technical Art History – a study of Chinese export paintings (9 December 2013 at V&A). A final workshop will be organised with stakeholders and researchers from a variety of disciplines interested not only in Chinese export paintings but also in books, manuscripts and paper-based works of art and Chinese painting techniques and materials to disseminate the results and demonstrate to what extent a systematic approach using non-invasive imaging and spectroscopic techniques can help to address research questions in art history and conservation.
The First Workshop on Chinese Export Paintings was held on 4 June 2013 at the Royal Horticultural Society to help shape the arts and humanities perspective through inviting art historians, historians, conservators and conservation scientists working on similar collections. The workshop was attended by UK and international participants.
June 2013: In situ imaging of both the V&A and RHS Reeves collection using OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography), and in situ investigation with microfade spectrometry, Raman spectroscopy and multispectral imaging of the V&A collection.
April 2013 : In situ investigation with microfade spectrometry and multispectral imaging of the RHS Reeves Collection at Lindley Library: revealed underdrawing in the European style and found all paint regions tested to be light fast (more stable to light than blue wool 3 standard)
