Look what I picked up last week!
p.s. wedding bands are hard things to take photos of.
Back in early July, Derek and I did some wedding band browsing that proved to be very educational. After trying on several styles of rings, I decided a sapphire/ diamond band worked best with my engagement ring.
The following weekend I discovered this old necklace at my parents' house.
It was a gift they had given me my junior year of high school and I loved it so much at the time, that I wore a kink into it. The necklace never sat quite right on my neck after the kink developed, so I retired it to my jewelry box for the next 10 years. When I re-discovered it, I immediately started to wonder if there was a way I could possibly turn this necklace into my wedding band.
I brought it to a local jeweler the next week and we discussed what I wanted done. Since it was a basic customization, the estimate to get it done wasn't anything crazy. They gave me a 4-6 week time table and I left the necklace in their capable hands.
4.5 weeks later, I got a call that the ring was ready. It was gorgeous, but not yet perfect.
My engagement ring has a square/flat band and the band on the new ring had more of a round, curved edge. I was sure they were going to tell me it was my error for not telling them that detail up front or try to charge me for the extra work, but they were really sweet about the whole thing and were even the ones who suggested they fix it. This time I left my engagement ring with them (for a whole 2 weeks!) so they could make sure everything lined up perfectly.
This time, the rings came back looking like a set.
The only sad part is I have to wait a full four months until I can wear my band full time. Boo.
I've tried wearing it around the house, but Derek thinks it's bad luck. Is that true?
What a gorgeous ring! BOTH of them. And I love how you were able to reuse an old necklace. What a brilliant idea!
I love how it came out!! I was so excited to finally see what it looked like it. I thought your necklace-to-ring idea was awesome. It's neat because, since the necklace is from your parents, it's kind of like you have a little bit of your parents in your wedding ring, which I think is so sweet.
I've heard it's bad luck. My husband wouldn't let me wear mine and in fact hid them so I wouldn't be tempted.
I LOVE how it turned out! It's so sweet that something your parents gave you when you were young will be with you through your entire marriage.
In regards to wearing your ring now…not sure if it's "bad luck" but trust me, just wait! It's so awesome wearing it once you are married and makes it that much more special.
You guys have been together a long time. I think your luck is safe!
Agreed! I think these superstitions are so silly.
It came out beautifully! It is definitely different – which I love 🙂 I don't know if wearing your band is bad luck before the wedding, I've just heard that letting someone else try your ring on is bad luck..
I really love how your ring turned out. Yeah, no wearing until you're married!
BEAUTIFUL!!!! I love it! I don't know if it's bad luck, but I can tell you that I tried mine on ALL-OF-THE-TIME before my hubby and I got married. I got the ring in November and we were married in July, so I had plenty of time to admire it! 🙂 Now, we are more in love than ever so, I'm thinking it was good luck!
My husband fussed at me every time I would try on my wedding band before the wedding! But I did it anyway.
It looks beautiful and it's so special that it can be your something old, something new, and something blue!
Hahaha when I read the title I was thinking band as in music! Although it doesn't play music, it sure is beautiful and fits your engagement ring perfectly!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats recently posted..GOTR Coaches Training!
Gorgeous!! And what a great story behind it (rolling all of your loved ones into one piece), which makes it all the much more special!!
Leave it in the box!!!!!! Not that I believe in bad luck, but the situation is just screaming DON'T DO IT! Four months isn't that long — you'll be able to wear it every single moment of every single day of the rest of your life after that!!
Your wedding band turned out lovely! It makes for such a pretty and unique set.
Why do boys have to ruin our fun?
I love your wedding band!! As a wedding gift my husband got me a sapphire ring that I wear stacked with my engagement ring and band – I'm a big fan of the blue stones.
Pretty! And yes, I think it's bad luck :). My fiance kept my band at his house while we were engaged. I was only allowed to look at it.
Your band is gorgeous! I 'm getting married in November and just got mine. I want to wear mine around the house too but my fiance says it's bad luck too!
So beautiful! But yes, don't wear it just yet! My friend took hers off to wash her hands at home and thought she lost it for a few minutes- not the kind of prep you need for the big day!
Looks great! I don't know if it's bad luck to wear it, but I would wait. Since you already live together and not a ton will change after the wedding it'll be nice to have that one very symbolic thing that's new in your daily routine to remind you that you're a married lady!
It's really beautiful. when I saw the necklace I thought to myself, it's your something old and something blue. your wedding band is stunning and I'm excited for you!
Laura recently posted..You can't go wrong with Mr Wong!
I love your wedding band! My (to be) in-laws kept custody of our wedding bands until the big day so there was no way I could try mine on for fun 🙁 Then again, I also didn't need to remember to actually bring them to the wedding, his parents did!
Anne P recently posted..Cape May Adventures, Part 2!
I think it turned out great! My wedding band is one of my mom's rings redone, so i love that you also used a piece of jewelry that was special to you… i think it means a little more. Now, keep that ring in the box until you get married!
Just curious about what kind of stones are on the band. Are those real sapphires and diamonds? And what kind of metal did you use for the band?
love it! hope you saved the rest of the necklace to make a matching band for the other side 🙂 anniversary present??
Love it! it looks perfect with your engagement ring, so fun!
It might be bad luck to wear the wedding band around the house. I think it's kind of like it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding. Or kiss your fiance on the day of the wedding before the "I do's" have been said.
What I think is funny is how perfectly your favorite old necklace matched your engagement ring. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason and to me, that necklace was created to be turned into your wedding band! It was just meant to be 🙂 I love it!
Your rings look lovely together!

Robert Quibel, surnommé Bob Quibel, est un contrebassiste, arrangeur et chef d'orchestre français, né le  au Havre et mort le  à Baillet-en-France où il vivait.

Biographie
Fils d'un chauffeur et d'une femme de ménage, il fait ses études au petit séminaire de Rouen et en est renvoyé en 1947 pour y avoir lu La Confession d'un enfant du siècle d'Alfred de Musset.

Revenant vivre au Havre, il écrit des petits articles pour les journaux locaux. Puis il travaille pour une revue appelée « Butterfly » qui publie des articles en français et en anglais où il est rédacteur-traducteur et secrétaire de rédaction.

Robert Quibel, qui avait fait partie dans sa jeunesse d'une chorale et appris l'harmonie, débute à la fin des années 1950 comme musicien d'orchestres de variétés et de jazz. Il fait ainsi partie des orchestres de Benny Bennet et de Jacques Hélian. On l'entend aussi dans l'orchestre de l'Olympia sous la direction de Daniel Janin. En 1960, il est l'un des chanteurs du groupe vocal Les Barclay, dirigé par Christiane Legrand.

Dès 1962, il est membre du trio de Claude Bolling, avec le batteur . En 1962-63, on l'entend dans le sextette de Claude Bolling, aux côtés de Pierre Dutour ou  (trompette), Gérard Badini (sax ténor),  ou  (trombone) et Peter Giger (batterie). En 1963, il fait partie du groupe « The 4 Trombones Incorporated », initié par le tromboniste , avec Charles Orieux, Michel Camicas, François Guin (trombones), Bernard Vitet (tp & bugle), Jean-Louis Chautemps (saxophone) et Peter Giger (batterie), qui enregistre quatre compositions originales de Raymond Fonsèque (non éditées dans le commerce). En 1968, il accompagne plusieurs trombonistes (Raymond Fonsèque, François Guin, Luis Fuentes, Christian Guizien, Charles Rieux, Slide Hampton) lors du Concert de Jazz au Studio 105 consacré au trombone.

Il exerce aussi ses talents de parolier, comme pour Jack Ary et son High Society Cha Cha en 1959, avec le titre Mah Jong Cha Cha Cha, ou pour Fernand Raynaud en 1965 (Cuisses de grenouille, cosigné avec Micheline Schotsmans). Il compose pour des chanteurs comme Ricet Barrier (Le Noël du chasseur, 1968).

En 1963, il rencontre à l'Olympia Jacques Martin, alors présentateur, qui deviendra l'animateur-phare des années 1970 aux années 1990. À partir de ce moment, les deux hommes deviennent vite inséparables, collaborant aussi bien à la radio qu'à la télévision ou encore lors de galas organisés par Jacques Martin.

C'est ainsi que l'on retrouve Robert Quibel à la télévision :
 de 1968 à 1971, dans l'émission de variétés Midi Magazine, animée par Jacques Martin et Danièle Gilbert, dans laquelle il constitue, avec le pianiste Jean Baitzouroff, le duo de musiciens surnommés « Kiki » et « Popoff » ;
 en 1975 et 1976, dans l'émission Le Petit Rapporteur, en compagnie du pianiste André Dauchy ;
 de 1977 à 1998, dans lÉcole des fans, en compagnie des pianistes Albert Lévy puis Pino Lattuca. À trois reprises, Robert Quibel remplacera Jacques Martin à la présentation de l'émission ;
 de 1980 à 1985 dans l'émission Thé dansant, où il assure la direction d'un grand orchestre dans lequel joueront de nombreux musiciens habitués des scènes de jazz, de variétés ou des studios, comme :  (trompette, également auteur de très nombreux arrangements et soli), Kako Bessot, Guy Bodet, Alain Bouchet, Vincent Casino, Fred Gérard, Louis Laboucarie, Maurice Thomas, Henri Vanhaeke, Jean-Claude Verstraete, Loulou Vezant (trompettes), Francis Cournet, Denis Fournier, Pierre Gossez, , Joe Rasko, Marcel Rasko, Jean-Pierre Solvès (saxophones), Raymond Fonsèque, Marc Steckar (trombones), Charles Verstraete (trombone, accordéon), Pino Lattuca, Georges Rabol (piano), Barthy Raffo (guitare), Hermès Alesi (basse), Roland Lobligeois (contrebasse), Marcel Blanche, Michel Lorin, Jean Schultheis, Yvano Lattuca (batterie)… ; l'orchestre accompagnera régulièrement des chanteurs comme Julie Bataille, Francine Bell, Nelly Gustin, Charles Level, Laurent Ritchy ou Dominique Val ; outre Robert Quibel et Jean-Claude Naude, l'orchestre fera appel à différents arrangeurs, dont Claude Germain et Jean-Jacques Marin. En 1985, il orchestre les six plus grands succès composés par Henri Betti : C'est si bon, Le Régiment des mandolines, Le Vrai Mambo, Mais qu'est-ce que j'ai ?, Rien dans les mains, rien dans les poches et Maître Pierre.
 en 1987 et 1988, dans l'émission Thé Tango, où il dirige à la fois un grand orchestre de jazz et un orchestre de tango qui se côtoient sur la même scène et jouent en alternance ;
 dans les émissions Si j'ai bonne mémoire de 1983 à 1985, ou encore dans Ainsi font, font, font de 1989 à 1996, Robert Quibel était souvent cité et présenté par Jacques Martin, aux spectateurs et téléspectateurs, mais Jacques Martin ne le présentait jamais sous l'appellation « Bob » Quibel ;
Il continue cependant à jouer occasionnellement avec des musiciens de jazz. On l'entend par exemple en 1979 dans la cave du Hot Club de France en trio avec le pianiste Didier Aubin et le batteur Carl Régnier.

Dans les années 1980, Robert Quibel est l'arrangeur, le chef d'orchestre ou le compositeur de musiques ou de chansons pour des séries télévisées d'animation (Sport Billy, Heckle et Jeckle), ainsi que d'adaptations phonographiques de courts ou de longs métrages d'animation des studios Disney, en collaboration avec les Disques Adès. Il est aussi arrangeur et chef d'orchestre de plusieurs disques de Jacques Martin et de celui de la chanteuse Francine Bell (1983).

Robert Quibel a collaboré avec plusieurs artistes célèbres, entre autres avec le crooner Paul Anka, les chanteurs Serge Reggiani, Catherine Sauvage et même Édith Piaf, avec qui il a eu l'honneur de jouer lors de son dernier concert à l'Olympia

Outre de très nombreux thèmes ou musiques de génériques pour les émissions télévisées de Jacques Martin, Robert Quibel est le compositeur de À la mémoire de Duke Ellington, une suite pour quintette de cuivres.

Vie privée
Marié avec Madeleine, il a eu deux enfants : Frédéric et Elsa.

Il vivait et est décédé chez lui à Baillet-en-France.

Based in Poland – EasyBrew is a single serve coffee bag service filled with happiness and freshly roasted coffee founded by partners Goksel Yesilkaya and Kamila Śliwińska. In early 2018 they contacted me to work on their strategy, branding and packaging designs.
EasyBrew's story goes back to when Yesilkaya traveled to Turkey during the summer of 2018. As a specialty coffee lover who enjoys drinking a decent cup of coffee on a daily basis he found himself surrounded with instant coffee during his travel to Turkey. During those enjoyable moments of travel and inspiration he rejected consuming the instant coffee options and came up with the idea of founding EasyBrew.
He thought it was worth trying. Even so, the next time he travels he could focus on the moment and enjoy his cup. After a long branding, marketing, tasting period and of course a lot of travelling EasyBrew was born! It's goal is to produce a great product that will be useful when people travel, camp and have no space or time to carry, prepare and clean filter and drip coffee equipment.

2. while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
4. as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.
6. And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.' "
7. Then he said to the multitudes that came out to be baptized by him, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8. Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
9. And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."
10. So the people asked him, saying, "What shall we do then?"
11. He answered and said to them, "He who has two tunics, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise."
12. Then tax collectors also came to be baptized, and said to him, "Teacher, what shall we do?"
13. And he said to them, "Collect no more than what is appointed for you."
14. Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, "And what shall we do?" So he said to them, "Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages."
16. John answered, saying to all, "I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
17. His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire."
18. And with many other exhortations he preached to the people.
20. also added this, above all, that he shut John up in prison.
21. When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.
22. And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."
38. the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

Yaphet Frederick Kotto (born Frederick Samuel Kotto; November 15, 1939 – March 15, 2021) was an American actor known for numerous film roles, as well as starring in the NBC television series Homicide: Life on the Street (1993–1999) as Lieutenant Al Giardello. His most well-known films include the science-fiction horror film Alien (1979), the science-fiction action film The Running Man (1987), the James Bond film Live and Let Die (1973), in which he portrayed the main villain Dr. Kananga, and the comedy thriller Midnight Run (1988) opposite Robert De Niro.

Early life
Kotto was born Frederick Samuel Kotto in New York City. His mother, Gladys Marie, was an American nurse and U.S. Army officer of Panamanian and West Indian descent. His father, Yaphet Avraham Kotto (who was, according to his son, originally named Njoki Manga Bell), was a businessman from Cameroon who emigrated to the United States in the 1920s. Kotto's father was raised Jewish and his mother converted to Judaism. The couple separated when Kotto was a child, and he was raised by his maternal grandparents.

Career
By the age of 16, Kotto was studying acting at the Actors Mobile Theater Studio, and at 19, he made his professional acting debut in Othello. He was a member of the Actors Studio in New York. Kotto got his start in acting on Broadway, where he appeared in The Great White Hope, among other productions.

His film debut was in 1963, aged 23, in an uncredited role in 4 for Texas. He performed in Michael Roemer's Nothing but a Man (1964) and played a supporting role in the caper film The Thomas Crown Affair (1968). He played John Auston, a confused Marine Lance Corporal, in the 1968 episode "King of the Hill", on the first season of Hawaii Five-O.

In 1967 he released a single, "Have You Ever Seen the Blues" / "Have You Dug His Scene" (Chisa Records, CH006).

In 1973 he landed the role of the James Bond villain Mr. Big in Live and Let Die, as well as roles in Across 110th Street and Truck Turner. He played a police officer, Richard "Crunch" Blackstone, in the 1975 film Report to the Commissioner. Kotto portrayed Idi Amin in the 1977 television film Raid on Entebbe. He starred as an auto worker in the 1978 film Blue Collar. The following year he played Parker in the sci-fi–horror film Alien. He followed with a supporting role in the 1980 prison drama Brubaker. In 1983, he guest-starred as mobster Charlie "East Side Charlie" Struthers in The A-Team episode "The Out-of-Towners". In 1987, he appeared in the futuristic sci-fi movie The Running Man, and in 1988, in the action-comedy Midnight Run, in which he portrayed Alonzo Moseley, an FBI agent. A memo from Paramount indicates that Kotto was among those being considered for Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation, a role which eventually went to Patrick Stewart.

Kotto was cast as a religious man living in the southwestern desert country in the 1967 episode "A Man Called Abraham" on the syndicated anthology series Death Valley Days, hosted by Robert Taylor. In the story line, Abraham convinces a killer named Cassidy (Rayford Barnes) that Cassidy can change his heart despite past crimes. When Cassidy is sent to the gallows, Abraham provides spiritual solace. Bing Russell also appeared in this segment.

Kotto retired from film acting in the mid-1990s, though he had one final film role in Witless Protection (2008). However, he continued to take on television roles. Kotto portrayed Lieutenant Al Giardello in the long-running television series Homicide: Life on the Street. As a black Sicilian proud of his Italian ancestry, the character was a breakout for television. He has written the book Royalty and also wrote scripts for Homicide. In 2014, he voiced Parker for the video game Alien: Isolation, reprising the role he played in the movie Alien in 1979.

Personal life and death
Kotto's first marriage was to a German immigrant, Rita Ingrid Dittman, whom he married in 1959. They had three children together before divorcing in 1976. Later, Kotto married Toni Pettyjohn, and they also had three children together, before divorcing in 1989. Kotto married his third wife, Tessie Sinahon, who is from the Philippines, in 1998.

Kotto was versed in the Hebrew liturgy and incorporated Jewish prayers at turning points throughout his life. He said his father "instilled Judaism" in him.

Kotto supported Donald Trump in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections. He also expressed support for Black Lives Matter and QAnon, despite their conflicting views and the conflicts between both groups.

In 2000, he was living in Marmora, Ontario, Canada.

He died at the age of 81 on March 15, 2021, near Manila, Philippines. His wife, who announced the news on Facebook, did not reveal the cause of his death.

Heavy Calendar Looms For Corporate Market
Aug. 25, 1999 12:01 am ET
NEW YORK -- The Federal Reserve's expected rise in key interest rates Tuesday led to a more positive tone in the corporate bond market, with spreads narrowing by 0.02 to 0.03 percentage point on the news.
But participants said an anticipated calendar of heavy new supply over the next month could limit how far secondary spreads will move.
"There's a lid on the upside because of supply and the expectation that there will be a lot of corporate issuance between now and a month after Labor Day," said Eli Lapp, senior vice president of fixed-income credit research at HSBC Markets.
Multibillion-dollar offerings for this week already started making the rounds Tuesday, including a $1.5 billion offering from Wells Fargo and a $1.5 billion to $3 billion issue from Tyco International .
San Francisco-based bank holding company Wells Fargo launched its two-part global offering of two-year floating rate and three-year fixed-rate notes after the Fed decision Tuesday via Bear Stearns & Co. and Morgan Stanley Dean Witter.

It is one of the most favorite ones in Kyoto so that I have stayed several times. First, the service is comfortable, like many other luxury hotels. Usually in Japan, in my opinion, it seems better in service at foreign-affiliated hotels rather than domestic ones. The staffs are always friendly, and bring us a comfortable atmosphere. Please note that I do not think Hyatt Regency Kyoto is luxurious one compared to the ones in Tokyo because the facility would not be said 5 stars. However, at least, only this hotel has the same level of hospitality as the ones in Tokyo. So, when you choose a hotel in Kyoto, definitely, this is the right choice when you need a higher service. I do not want to attack the domestic-affiliated hotels, but honestly speaking, it is clear that the quality of service is very different.
Secondly, as my profile says, I love to have breakfasts in different occasions. At Hyatt Regency Kyoto, it is worth paying for breakfast. I usually take it at The Grill on the lobby floor. It is a buffet style, and there are not so many varieties. However, vegetables, cheese, breads, eggs, cereals and juices are all better than standard. It is sad to say that the level of breakfasts at hotels in Japan (except the luxury hotels in Tokyo) is not so high as you might expect, but among that, I can say I like the one in this hotel. Even the varieties are less, and the restaurant itself is small, it brings us a beautiful holiday morning, with fresh coffee.
The facilities are also good. I mean, it is comfortable even in a standard type room (Guest Room). When I say a negative point, the standard room only has 28sqm, so some people may feel it too small. Of course, there are some other types of rooms, but majority is this Guest Room. Another negative point is, the view is not so good. However, please understand that it is a bit unsuitable to expect a nice view in Kyoto, since Kyoto is not a metropolitan city with high-buildings like Tokyo. Kyoto is a calmer city, surrounded by small mountains. The interior is light-filled, with a little bit taste of Japan. I recommend you to stop by a boutique on the lobby floor, to admire the beautiful crafts. Those are traditional items and have the taste of Japan, but it looks also modern and stylish. The selected items often vary.
The location of this hotel is not the best, some people say. On one hand, it is true that it takes around 20-mins to JR Kyoto Station on foot, and also it takes around 40-50mins to the city center on foot. It is easy to access to those areas by taxis, but I walk, daringly, since it is wonderful to walk the Kyoto city. Kyoto is set out neatly in a grid so that you won't be lost if you know North, South, East, and West. It is one way of enjoying this city, because on the way, you may be able to see local cute cafes, hidden temples or shrines, variety stores, and so on. Also, if you walk, you will have better understanding of this city.
If you stay in this hotel, it is also recommendable to walk to Sanjusangendo Hall, or Chishakuin Temple which are both within 5-minutes on foot. At Sanjusangendo Hall, it is possible to see thousands of Kannon statues, and those are spectacular. Chishakuin Temple is a large temple, with a bit of southeastern Asian taste, and you will be able to enjoy the great paintings on the sliding doors by Tohaku Hasegawa.
As a conclusion, I recommend this hotel as one of your choices and I am sure I will stay at this hotel some times in the future. However, if you would like to see other aspects of Japan, it is also recommended to stay in a ryokan (Japanese style inn). One more news is, The Ritz Carlton is under constructing in the city center, so it would be a hard situation for this hotel, unfortunately.
However, after The Ritz Carlton is open, I will compare again since "Seeing is believing.).

"As a whole, Peel Back and See is probably my bleakest book to date, with only a few diversions into more playful genre territory (e.g. 'Mr. Mucata's Final Requests', 'The Furnace Room Mutant', and 'Virus'). For the most part, these stories are awash in the personal affective experiences of chronic depression, anxiety, psychological ruptures, post-postmodern despair, addiction, loss, grief, nihilism, pessimism, and suicidal ideation."

Is baby too hot or too cold? These safety thermometer cards use new liquid crystal technology to ensure that an infant's room is not dangerously too hot or uncomfortably too cold. Although the cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is not known. The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths (FSID) recommends that a child or baby sleeps in room temperatures between 61F (16C) to 68F (20C) with 65F (18C) being just right. Most adults find it difficult to judge room temperature and the FSID suggests the use of a simple room thermometer in rooms where your baby plays and sleeps. Place this cute Fox and the Hedgehog Nursery room thermometer near the baby's cot and you will always know if baby is sleeping in a room of the correct temperature. The New Single Colour Red Liquid Crystal thermometer ensures that the actual colour change is much easier to read, as the temperature is read at the top of the red line. Just check to see that there are 2 red bars and that will be the room temperature around 18C to 20C. They are easy to use with full instructions on the rear of the product and are a new alternative to the standard multi-colour strips. Our Fox and the Hedgehog Thermometer cards are printed on laminated 350gsm card for durability (Dimensions 105mm x 143mm). Store out of reach of children, in a cool dry place away from sunlight and direct heat sources. The manufacturer holds the ISO world standard certificate for their thermometers.

Drag Show Returns to ESU Tonight!
October 4, 2018 The Stroud Courier Arts and Entertainment 0
Photo Courtesy / ESU Flickr
"Lights Camera, Drag SHow," featured performances from students, alumni, and of course, hosts Sharon Ann and Carolann Carolann.
Homecoming starts this weeks and that means a lot of fun festivities going on around campus. One particularly exciting event is this year's drag show, "Drag Through Time." The event will be hosted by ESU's PRIDE and the Gender and Sexuality Center.
This is the first year Dr. Kelly is overlooking the drag show. He is currently the director of the Gender and Sexuality Center located on the bottom floor of the union.
The show will feature some of ESU's own students as well as the famous duo Sharron Ann Husbands and Carol Ann Carol Ann.
"The hosts were hysterical, they made so many jokes and sang and danced between acts and it really made the night better" said Rhys Lombardino about last year's show. "There was a bunch of drags from ESU that went up and performed, it wasn't just guys dressed as girls either, there was a girl dressed as a guy!"
Drag shows have a very lively atmosphere, and each one is different. The drag queens and or kings put on a show of their own specific taste and style, so it's hard to say what to expect other than a lot of laughs and fun.
Sharron and Carol have been working together since 2011 and travel around the states performing. For those who have never been to a drag show, here is what you may expect.
Often times males, but it may be female, transgender, etc., dress up as the opposite sex in wild outfits or costumes known as drag. Drag Queens (and Kings) have adopted their own personas and will often have exaggerated features with lots of makeup, big hair, etc.
One famous drag queen many people may have heard of is Trixie Mattel the barbie drag queen who runs the makeup line SugarPill.
It is important to note that one should not assume the gender or sexuality of any of the drag show performers, because not all of them identify with how they dress in drag.
The most important thing to note is to be respectful and have fun. ESU is a place where everyone should feel safe and included.
The Drag show is at 7 p.m. on Oct. 4 in Abeloff and tickets can be purchased in the Gender and Sexuality Center on the ground floor of the Union.

'My Rapist Still Goes Here:' Student Protests University for Keeping an Alleged Rapist


Dead celebrities have been on my mind a lot lately. 2016 took some especially good ones from us. I watched "Star Wars" the night Carrie Fisher died. I was particularly upset about her death (and even cried), but watching "A New Hope" made me realize that I have only known her through movies, and I will always have those movies. It's the place where I go to spend time with her.
Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins are also all dead. And because all of their music still lives on, we get to spend time with them whenever we want to.
"Million Dollar Quartet" at the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre transports you back to a very specific time. December 4, 1956, of all times, at Sun Records in Memphis, Tennessee. This is the first and only time the four iconic musicians — made up of Presley, Cash, Perkins, and Jerry Lee Lewis — were in the same room at the same time. Some were at the peak of their stardom, some had just started and looked up to the others, but they all started at Sun. Sam Phillips, the founder of Sun, played by Andrew Cecon, serves as the narrator, telling us all how he discovered and built each of the artists up to the legends we know them as now.
Don't be confused by how I'm setting this up: this show isn't a history lesson. It's not a play, it's not a concert: it's a bona fide rock n' roll show. Check your heavy parka at the door and bring your dancing shoes.
Hit after hit after hit, the talented and passionate musicians play their instruments live, in an intimate concert with the most exclusive of intended audiences — each other. Matt Cage as Elvis is flirty and a big presence on stage, knowing that even saying the King's name bears its own weight, and playing him is even heavier. Greg Gale as Johnny Cash, fresh from the Citadel Theatre in Edmonton in the same role, may not look exactly like the "Man in Black," but he has the pipes, and you'll hear him hit those signature lower-than-low notes.
Elliot Loran plays the fiery Jerry Lee Lewis, who was sort of getting on my nerves throughout most of the show. But when he sat down and tickled the ivories, I was enraptured by his talent and couldn't look away, even if I knew I should be focusing on something else on the stage. His green-and-purple contrast-of-all-contrast outfit probably contributed to making him the main attraction too.
Winnipeg musician Kris Ulrich rounded out the quartet, and was clearly the most talented guitar player on the stage. Making his Royal MTC debut after starring in only two other productions at Rainbow Stage, Ulrich is clearly finding his home in the theatre, and Winnipeg should keep finding roles for him to fill.
A real standout for me was Laura Olafson, who plays Elvis' girlfriend Dyanne. You don't go into the theatre expecting her to be there, and you don't necessarily talk about how incredible she was after the performance, but man, I am glad she was there to break up the sausage party. Her pair of songs are impeccably performed and she keeps up with the guys without a problem. But mostly, I loved her fun, playful presence on the stage, because her character got to be a fly on the wall in the room where it happened, and she soaked it all up.
So instead of mourning dead celebrities, we should be celebrating them. We should be celebrating their lives and their bodies of work and the fact that they had the opportunity to share their gift with the world.
Million Dollar Quartet runs until January 28 at the John Hirsch Mainstage. For ticket information, visit RoyalMTC.ca.

Lorenzo Cain has been selected MVP of the AL Championship Series after helping the Kansas City Royals to a four-game sweep of the Baltimore Orioles with a 2-1 victory Wednesday.
USA TODAY Sports' Bob Nightengale breaks down the Royals' keys to success in the World Series.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Lorenzo Cain did not fall back of the time-honored cliché of wanting to break his Most Valuable Player trophy into 25 pieces and giving one to each of his teammates.
Yet the Royals center fielder could have made that statement and none of those who watched Kansas City sweep the Baltimore Orioles in four games of the American League Championship Series would have rolled their eyes.
While Cain was a deserving choice by going went 8-for-15 (.533) with two doubles and a number of outstanding catches, a number of Royals could have walked away with the MVP award after the Royals edged the Orioles 2-1 in Game 4 on Wednesday at Kauffman Stadium.
"The starting pitching was phenomenal," manager Ned Yost said. "The bullpen was unbelievable with (Kelvin) Herrera, (Wade) Davis, Greg Holland. We had clutch hits by just about everybody up and down the lineup. (Mike) Moustakas had a phenomenal series. (Eric Hosmer) had a phenomenal series. Lorenzo Cain, phenomenal. Salvador (Perez) did a great job of handling the pitching staff.
"It was just a whole team effort."
Left fielder Alex Gordon drove in five runs and Moustakas, the third baseman, hit a pair of home runs and made the catch of the series in Game 3 when he snared a pop foul by Adam Jones while falling into the VIP field boxes along the third-base line that were constructed especially for the postseason.
Holland got the save in all four games while Davis pitched five scoreless innings and Herrera didn't allow a run in 5 2/3 innings.
"A lot of guys stepped up," Cain said. "Any of those guys stepped up and were definitely deserving (of being MVP). Luckily, I got it."
Even though Cain went 0-for-3 on Wednesday in the clincher, he played a hand in the Royals' two-run first inning with a sacrifice bunt after Alcides Escobar led off with a single and Nori Aoki was hit by a pitch.
After Cain advanced the runners --- and set off yet another anti-Yost flurry on Twitter because of the manager's fondness for bunting --- they both scored when Eric Hosmer hit a chopper to first baseman Steve Pearce but Escobar kicked the ball out of rookie catcher Caleb Joseph's mitt as he slid into home plate.
"I'm just trying to do whatever it takes to find a way to help this team win ballgames," Cain said. "I'm just going to continue to do that throughout the World Series, as well."

May is apparently oatmeal cookie month, at least for me! I found this week's recipe in "The Clever Cook", by Lucy Doncaster, which is a wonderful cookbook that I can spend far too much time with just staring at the pictures. So I though I'd make some of my own!
The hour in the fridge to chill, in addition to waiting for the butter to soften, means that making these cookies takes some planning. Once underway they're easy to prepare and the hour in the fridge makes the dough very easy to work with. The end result is very satisfying and worth the wait!
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy; about two or three minutes on medium speed.
Add beaten eggs, milk, and vanilla, and beat thoroughly; about four or five minutes on low-medium speed until the mixture is consistent.
Sift in flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix thoroughly.
Fold in rolled oats, chocolate chips, and pecans.
Chill mixture in the fridge for at least one hour.
Place tablespoon-sized drops of dough onto lined cookie sheets and flatten slightly with a fork.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, let sit on the trays for 5-10 minutes, and then cool on wire racks.
One of the things I like about these cookies is that they're not overly sweet. There's nothing wrong with rich, gooey, chocolate-y cookies, but these can be eaten somewhat less guiltily given that there's relatively speaking not a lot of sugar per cookie. Bittersweet chocolate chips would help to bring the sugar down even further.
Five to seven minutes at 350°F and you have toasted pecans!
Action shot of creaming butter and sugar!
Lightly beaten will take you just to the point of a vaguely consistent color; there no need to get a workout beating up the eggs.
After adding the eggs, milk, and vanilla, what you get does not look appetizing, but it gets better in a minute. If you can't get this step to even out into anything vaguely consistent, and what you have looks like soaked cornflakes, try whisking with a stand mixer or electric hand-held on a medium or medium-high speed and it should smooth out into something resembling this.
The mixture will thicken in a hurry when you dump the dry ingredients in, so it's a good idea to whisk this part together first to ensure an even distribution of the baking powder.
Once the flour's mixed this starts to look better.
Now we're definitely getting somewhere!
An hour in the fridge sets the dough up and makes it easy to work with, and for me is also a convenient time to clean up the mess I've made by this point.
These cookies don't spread out much; I could have fit 25 on one sheet.
When they're done they'll be a little spongy; firmer than your average cookie.
Now it's time to eat them!

Kent, Herbert Wade (1877–1952)
by Mae Anna Quan Pang
Herbert Wade Kent (1877-1952), collector of Chinese art, was born on 28 September 1877 at South Yarra, Melbourne, son of Robert George Kent, a civil servant from England, and his Victorian-born wife Fanny Isabel, née Wade. Herbert was educated (1893-97) at Melbourne Church of England Grammar School. Stimulated by the decorative Chinese export wares in his family's home, he developed an interest in Chinese art and a wish to live in the East. He worked for shipping companies, from 1898 to 1904 with Orient Steam Navigation Co. in Melbourne and London, and from 1905 to 1936 with Butterfield & Swire in China and Japan. On 8 January 1913 at St John's Anglican Church, Toorak, he married Irene Lenore Simson.
While in the East, Kent developed an understanding of Chinese aesthetics. With an impeccable eye, he formed a collection of ceramics, and a few items of archaic bronze, jade, lacquer, painting and furniture. The outstanding pieces were early ceramics, particularly those of the T'ang (A.D.618-907) and Sung (Song) (A.D.960-1279) dynasties, which reflected his taste for pure form and colour, and his love of horses.
Returning to Melbourne in 1937, Kent was eager to share his passion for Chinese art, which he considered one of the greatest expressions of the human mind and imagination. With the support of the trustees of the National Gallery of Victoria he arranged an exhibition of his collection of 129 objects. It generated interest and excitement, and was hailed by the art critic Basil Burdett as a stimulating and important exhibition. Moved by public enthusiasm, the Kents presented their collection to the N.G.V. where it became the nucleus of the gallery's holdings of Chinese art. Kent was proud that his collection represented 'Chinese taste' and contained 'no specimen made specially for the export trade'.
In 1938 Kent became a trustee of the gallery and its first curator of Oriental art. Having secured the support of the Felton Bequests' Committee to travel to London to purchase works of art, he acquired an excellent range of Chinese ceramics and established useful contacts. Other overseas collectors and dealers, inspired by Kent's enthusiasm, donated gifts which the N.G.V. exhibited in March 1939. The Society of Artists, Sydney, awarded Kent its medal in 1943 in recognition of his services to Australian art; in 1948 the gallery housing Oriental art at the N.G.V. was renamed in his honour.
Devoted to his collection, Kent described his other hobbies as golf and riding; he lived at Toorak and belonged to the Melbourne Club. He made two further trips to England, the last in May 1951. At the end of that year he retired as treasurer of the council of trustees due to ill health. Survived by his wife and daughter, he died on 7 April 1952 at Preston and was cremated. In 1961 his wife presented his favourite piece, a Sung dynasty white vase, to the gallery.

On 18 April 2018 at 09:15 am CET, the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) held an open hearing in the case of Ilias and Ahmed v. Hungary. It concerned the detention of two Bangladeshi asylum-seekers in the transit zone for 23 days as well as their removal from Hungary to Serbia. The two asylum-seekers are represented by attorneys of the Hungarian Helsinki Committee.
The hearing follows the Court's unanimous ruling of March 2017 stating that the de facto detention of the two asylum-seekers in the transit zone had been unlawful, there were no remedies available to them to complain about the conditions in the transit zone, and that their expulsion to Serbia exposed them, among others, to possible chain-refoulement to Greece, where they would have been at risk of inhuman and degrading treatment.
The Hungarian Government requested that the case be referred to the Grand Chamber of the ECtHR which accepted the request in September of last year.

Rare Maned Lionesses Explained
Posted by Christine Dell'Amore
If it looks like a male lion and is perceived as a male lion—well, sometimes it isn't. That's the case of Africa's unusual maned lionesses, which sport a male's luxurious locks and may even fool competitors.
Though uncommon, maned lionesses have been regularly sighted in the Mombo area of Botswana's Okavango Delta (including the individual pictured below), where the lion population may carry a genetic disposition toward the phenomenon, according to Luke Hunter, president of the big-cat conservation group Panthera, which collaborates with National Geographic's Big Cats Initiative. (The Society owns National Geographic News.)
Hunter said it's possible that maned lionesses in Mombo are related—including a safari favorite named Martina, which disappeared in 2002. (Learn more about how you can see the maned lionesses at Mombo Camp.)

Such masculine females likely occur when the embryo is disrupted, either at conception or while in the womb, he said by email.
"If the former case, the genetic contribution of the sperm—which determines the sex of the fetus in most mammals—was probably aberrant, giving rise to a female with some male characteristics.
"Alternatively and perhaps more likely, the problem may have occurred during gestation if the fetus was exposed to increased levels of androgens— male hormones such as testosterone."
If a lion mother had abnormally high androgens during pregnancy, her female offspring may end up "masculinized"—a situation that occurs occasionally in people but which is rarely observed in wild animals.

Whatever the case, such lionesses would likely be infertile but otherwise "perfectly capable" of surviving, Hunter noted. (See more lion pictures.)
In fact, their manes may actually be a boon to the pride—for instance, if the female is perceived as a male, she may better defend kills from hyenas or the pride from attacks by foreign males. In the case of the pictured female, Hunter said, it seems like she's treated as a lioness by the rest of the pride.
"It would be interesting to know if she behaved like a male," he added. "Two similarly aberrant Serengeti lionesses were outwardly female—they did not have manes, but were almost male-sized, and they challenged and fought unfamiliar males for territories as though they were males!"

2017-1 scR motorsports, Act III
Dateline: April 21, 2017
*click*
*hummmmm*
*tap tap tap*
Welcome back, fans, family, and followers of scR motorsports! It has been a LONG while since our last newsletter update, but here we are ready to fire this thing back up for Act III. But first, a brief scR motorsports historical montage to refresh your memory and get you back up to speed…
As our long-time followers will recall, scR motorsports first turned a wheel in the spring of 1997. That's right, exactly 20 years ago. Competing in the SCCA's Showroom Stock C category, our brand-new (and leased – how did we ever get away with that??) white 1997 Saturn SC2 was our entry into organized road racing, culminating with an *almost* top-ten finish at the Runoffs at Mid-Ohio in 1998. We learned, we grew, we figured out how to compete, and we, ahem, never won a race. But #34 was christened and the legend began to take shape.
Switching to the Improved Touring A category in 1999 brought with it a whole host of changes. Like a new car. And high expectations. And a blown motor at Road America in our grand debut (timing chain literally into the hood, if you recall). And then there was that whole separate back story about running out of gas in the tow vehicle on the trip back home. Our inauspicious start was not a foreshadowing of things to come, however, as multiple class victories and *almost* track records gave us hope that every weekend we had something to fight for. Wearing the now-famous #34, the red 1992 Saturn SC competed valiantly for five years until…disaster struck.
Babies. Too many babies. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids. I suppose that someday I will forgive them, but at the time moving on was the right thing to do. If I say that enough will I eventually believe it like my therapist says I will?
With the sale of the ITA car on Saturday, March 13, 2004 at 11:31 AM (roughly) came an influx of street cars used to "keep my skills fresh" while attending and instructing at a variety of high-performance driving schools. A diagnosis of automotive ADD is fully really realized when looking backwards, as evidenced by the eclectic chronology that played out:
2003 : A Subaru WRX hatchback
2004 : A Chevrolet Corvette Z06 (my first truly "fast" car)
2005-2007 : The dark years (this, my friends, was painful)
2008 : Discovered the magic of a 997 GT3 (my Renaissance period)
2009 : Bummed a ride in both a Spec E30 (thanks again, Robert!) and Spec Miata (thanks again, John!) at Road Atlanta
2010-2015 : The Porsche GT3 RS era
2011-2014 : The Saturn ChumpCar era (thanks again, Mark!)
2013 : Almost died racing a 1968 McLaren M6B CanAm car at Laguna Seca (thanks again, Bob!)
2015-2016 : Learned to speak Italian when the Germans bailed on me (see also, end of Porsche GT3 era)
Clearly I am leaving out lots of detail, but I owe a huge THANK YOU to everyone that loaned me a car, rented me a seat, or otherwise kept my racing aspirations properly incubated. Act II wasn't racing as I had known in the past, but the limited time I was able to spend at the track during this period kept me from doing anything drastic for the better part of 13 years.
But now it's time for something drastic. Much to the chagrin of my wife, my mother, my small business advisor, my insurance guy, and my own common sense, it's time to go racing again. In earnest. And this time, we're not fielding a Saturn.
Through a variety of unexpected opportunities and experiences, I have somehow found myself in a position to compete in the 2017 Ferrari Challenge series. Thankfully, I have two decades of Saturn racing experience in my back pocket to prepare me for this, right? Fun fact: the 458 Challenge racecar that I just bought makes as much power in two of its eight cylinders as the Saturn ITA motor made. Ever…even with all of those illegal modifications I never fessed up about (sorry, Chris).
The elevator speech is that the 458 Challenge racecar is a purpose-built creation not legal for use on public roads, but is based on the road-going Ferrari 458 Italia. About 570 horsepower, about 2,950 pounds, and about as far from a Saturn as you can imagine. And then, six times per year, the people nuts enough to buy them get together and race each other at some of the most famous racetracks in the country.
While the racecar is still making its way to Houston, preparations are already being made for the first race of the season (more on this immediately below). Since I have absolutely no spare time to tend to the care and feeding of a proper racecar, my local dealer, Ferrari of Houston, will be supporting me in this endeavor. Racing under the Risi Competizione banner, they are considered by many to be the premier Ferrari race team in North America. I have not yet determined if they will be willing to accept dinner at Outback Steakhouse and/or dessert at Dairy Queen as reimbursement for their services, but you know I am going to try. It's a tradition, after all.
The Schedule
May 12-14 at Mazda Raceway (the track formerly known as Laguna Seca) in Monterey, California
June 9-11 at Circuit Gilles Villenueve in Montreal, Canada (Formula 1 support race)
July 14-16 at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (the track formerly known as Mosport) in Toronto, Canada
August 11-13 at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin
September 15-17 at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas (our current "home" track)
September 29-October 1 at Homestead in Miami, Florida
Q: Will the new car bear #34?
A: Do you have to ask?
Q: What does Dana think about all of this?
Q: Seriously, you're going racing again? (submitted anonymously by my mom)
A: Aren't the grandkids soooo cute in their Easter church clothes?
Countdown to Laguna Seca
Preparing in earnest for racing for the first time in 13 years has brought back vivid memories of just how much there is to do in preparing for a race season. Licenses need to be renewed, physicals need to be performed, equipment needs to be purchased, travel plans need to be made, and then there is the whole deal about having a racecar ready to go when the green flag flies. Whether or not this ends up as a triumphant return or a complete train wreck is yet to be seen, but no matter. Let's go have some fun behind the wheel.

At our first meeting. we'll begin our investigation in the mid-1960s by looking at movements of black American artists uniting in formal organisations. We'll look at the Black Arts Movement in New York, which formed around writing and poetry, as an influence on and precursor to the AACM (which was founded in 1965). Recordings from this period will span 1967-1968, specifically the work of prominent members of the yet-unformed Art Ensemble of Chicago, then working in different groups; and Muhal Richard Abrams, whose Experimental Band is considered the genesis of the AACM.
Let us know if you are coming and feel free to bring food and drink to share!

I skimmed your review, because I just got my copy yesterday and I can't wait to read it. I have to thank Eleanor too for urging me to pick this one up!!
I didn't realize that it was a novel and not a memoir. Might have to put this on my wish list.
I'm not sure this is a genre I like but your review made me think twice about this book. Will definitely keep it in mind.
I'm glad to see your review of this! I had heard that Ringwald had written something but I haven't heard much about it. Sounds like a good one and one that I might have to pick up!
I heard an interview with Molly Ringwald on NPR, and thought this book sounded interesting. I'm glad to know it lives up to the promise. I think I'll nominate it for our next round of book club books.
It would be great to discuss at a book club!
I did get a copy of this book at BEA (my friend snagged it for me because my love of all things Brat Pack) but I haven't had a chance to read it yet. Now I'm really looking forward to it!

Can Employees Get Their Jobs After Business Bankruptcy?
In January, our attorneys discussed the Chapter 11 bankruptcy and the Revel Casino in Atlantic City. Recently, new developments bring Revel back into the spotlight for us, as the casino has been closed and sold to a Toronto-based company. This caused over 3,100 workers to wonder if they will have their jobs back under the new company or not. Unfortunately, it was later announced that the new owner, who may change the name of the casino, is not required to rehire former employees. Why is this the case?
There was a sale agreement reached during the settlement. In the agreement, the new casino owner, Brookfield US Holdings LLC, has the liberty to decide if it wants to rehire any of the employees.
While this is generally the case in bankruptcies, a benevolent company has the option of protecting its workers as part of the sale agreement if it wants. However, this is rare since a bankrupt business is habitually trying to gain or save as much money as it can in a sale agreement.
There is still a chance that they could rehire workers with casino work experience, as they plan to continue operating the business as a casino. Naturally, some of the workers may find work elsewhere in a city with other gambling establishments.
My Company Went Bankrupt and I Lost My Job – What Can I Do?
If you lose your job to bankruptcy, you will want to find out what rights you have. You should make sure to claim all of your unpaid wages and compensation by filling out a proof of claim form. Additionally, you have the right to obtain information about the financial status of the bankrupt company.
For the claim form, you will need to submit the form by the deadline if you hope to get at least some of your lost wages or other compensation.
In the event that you are offered a severance package, you should try to see how long you could expand the time of your severance period. Also, be aware that your health plans and other benefits are likely to go away when you lose your job. If you had a pension plan, you will want to make sure you get the money that has accrued.
If you think you are being denied wages from a company in bankruptcy, reach out to an experienced bankruptcy lawyer to see what your options are. If you filed a proof of claim form before the appropriate deadline, then you are likely eligible for some of your lost wages and compensation, if not all the money owed you. It is important to have a bankruptcy lawyer that can represent you and settle the issue quickly. Reach us at (973) 984-1300, and schedule a free consultation with one of our Morris County bankruptcy lawyers today.

When we were still in our R&D stage for our menu, we wanted our food and beverages to not only look good but we were determined that it has to taste good as well. We experimented with so many different types of recipes and tasted over 100 cups of milkshake, until this time when we tried adding in scoops of Imported Premium Australian Vanilla Ice Cream. At that very moment, knew that even though it would cost us a little extra, this is the Magical Mericorn Milkshake that we want to serve you, #becauseitsyouthatmatters.
Come on over and taste the thick, creamy texture that melts in your mouth with each sip you take.

Quoting #TeamDiscoverKL "As a sucker for chocolates, it was probably the best hot chocolate beverage we have ever had. We're not merely singing praises either as the hot chocolate is made with real chocolate and none of the cocoa powder nonsense."
Yes! Underneath the kitty marshmallow lies 3 generous scoops chocolate shavings and a pinch of activated charcoal in each cup of Signature Hot Mallow Bath - Charcoal Chocolate.

THE DARK CRYSTAL: AGE OF RESISTANCE Cancelled After Emmy Win
Posted by Noetta Harjo | Sep 22, 2020 | fantasy, TV & Streaming | 0
Netflix announced the cancellation of the Emmy award winning The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance this week. The prequel to the 1982 film The Dark Crystal lasted one season. According to io9.com, there is no clear reason why the show was cancelled, however, many of the creators and producers have moved on to other projects.
Jim Henson family representative and executive producer Lisa Henson released the following statement:
"We can confirm that there will not be an additional season of 'The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.' We know fans are eager to learn how this chapter of 'The Dark Crystal' saga concludes and we'll look for ways to tell that story in the future. Our company has a legacy of creating rich and complex worlds that require technical innovation, artistic excellence, and masterful storytelling. Our history also includes productions that are enduring, often finding and growing their audience over time. And proving again and again that fantasy and science fiction genres reflect eternal messages and truths that are always relevant.
We are so grateful to Netflix for trusting us to realize this ambitious series. We are deeply proud of our work on 'Age of Resistance.' And the acclaim it has received from fans, critics and our peers, most recently receiving an Emmy for Outstanding Children's Program."

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance went back in time to when the Gelflings flourished in several different clans around and under Thra and the Skeksis were just discovering the key to becoming immortal. The season ended as the Gelflings were uniting their clans to stand up to the Skeksis. There was also the discovery of the missing crystal shard. The crystal shard is imperative to the film's story and future of Thra.
The The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance enlisted a star-studded voice cast led by Taron Egerton, Anya Taylor-Joy and Nathalie Emmanuel. The voice cast also included Caitriona Balfe, Natalie Dormer, Mark Hamill and Jason Isaacs, with Simon Pegg as The Chamberlain. Louis Leterrier directed and executive produced The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, alongside Henson and Halle Stanford.
As a fan of the film, the series was a great return to a beloved tale and a chance to introduce new viewers to The Dark Crystal. The combination of puppetry and CGI brought magic to the world of Thra and opened up the imaginations of thousands of viewers. Despite this disappointing news, I have a feeling we will see our Gelfling friends again soon.
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is currently streaming on Netflix.
