— It would probably shock the heck out of Danish knight Erik Axelsson Tott, who founded Olavinlinna Castle in 1475, to learn that what started out as a defensive fortification has since become the home of a summer opera festival that draws thousands of opera lovers from all around the world to the lovely lake country of southeastern Finland.
Through the centuries, Olavinlinna (literally St. Olaf's Castle) was added on to and assaulted by foreign invaders several times, but it still stands, a massive stone citadel that claims the title of the northern-most, still-standing Medieval stone castle.
Remarkably preserved and built on a small granite island and surrounded by Europe's fourth largest lake, Lake Saimaa, the restored castle offers tours daily that give visitors a look inside the circular towers, the king's massive dining room, the central courtyard as well as several other rooms large and small. Just be prepared to climb up a stone staircase or two along the way, a formidable task for the physically challenged.
Today, Olavinlinna's major claim to fame its opera festival, held each July when the evening sky can still be lit by the fading rays of the sun until 10:30 p.m. or even later. Because the castle is connected to the mainland town of Savonlinna by two footbridges that cross the lake, both the well-heeled and those of lesser means approach the festival on foot. There are no fancy limos pulling up to the entranceway here.
Still, for all, it's exhilarating to make the march to the castle, where the Finnish flag breezes from the top of one of its three towers. People like to stop along the way and take one another's photo with the castle in the background, listen to a group of talented children singing nursery rhymes on the access island, then enter the castle courtyard through a massive portal.
The initial idea for the Savonlinna Opera Festival came from Finnish opera diva and ardent patriot, Aino Ackte, in 1907, the year Finland democratically elected its first Parliament by universal suffrage. While attending a political meeting in the castle, Ackte saw the possibility of staging an opera festival in this very romantic setting.
The first opera festival was staged in 1912 and grew in renown until the First World War and ensuing economic difficulties put the festival on hold for nearly four decades. Ardent supporters, after years of planning, staged a televised production of "Fidelio" in 1967 that put Savonlinna back on the operatic map.
From its early beginnings as a one-week festival, Savonlinna has grown into a month-long international festival that draws an audience of 60,000 yearly. On an artistic par with many of Europe's best music festivals, Savonlinna presented six operas, a children's opera and Verdi's "Requiem" for the 2013 season.
While I relished the experience of being able to sit through a staging of Verdi's "Macbeth," aptly performed in an old castle, (how mood evocative can you get?), I also marveled at the superb artistry achieved by the production staff, the orchestra, soloists and chorus. Even more to my amazement is the fact that the small town of some 27,500 residents is able to accommodate the phalanx of musicians, technicians and singers, not to mention the audience.
Initially, I questioned how well the acoustics might fare in a stone castle with rock-hard walls, but I was amazed by the superb sound starting with the overture to "La Traviata," the first in my series of Savonlinna operas. Because 2013 is the 200th anniversary of the birth of both Giuseppi Verdi and Richard Wagner, Savonlinna decided to stage Verdi's "Masked Ball," "Macbeth," and "La Traviata" as well as his "Requiem" and Wagner's "Lohengrin," the final opera of the three I was able to see on three consecutive evenings.
Rounding out the 2013 season were Saint-Saens' "Samson and Delilah" and Tchaikovsky's "Eugene Onegin," a production of the Mikailovsky Theatre of St. Petersburg, Russia, which also produced "A Masked Ball."
The 2014 season runs from July 4 through August 2 with six operas and Mozart's "Requiem," which will be held in nearby Kerimaki in the world's largest wooden church. The acoustics there are expected to be superb as well.

Tall Ships Festival L.A.
Ahoy, mateys! Get thee to ye olde Port of Los Angeles for Tall Ships Festival L.A., a five-day boating festival that pays tribute to a time when ports such as ours welcomed not just shipping containers and the occasional cruise ship but also majestic vessels called "tall ships" — classic boats with traditional, complicated rigs. From battleships to schooners to the World's Largest Rubber Duck (yes, really), this year's lineup promises something for everyone. The kid-friendly event includes a Friday-night screening of The Little Mermaid, projected on the sails of the Freda B. Live bands and cannon demonstrations will provide daily entertainment, while those willing to shell out some extra cash can actually ride on one of the museum-quality ships. And because every good captain knows a fed crew is a happy crew, plenty of food trucks, including the Lobsta Truck and Luckdish, will be in attendance. Los Angeles Waterfront, 250 S. Harbor Blvd., San Pedro; Wed., Aug. 20, noon-8 p.m.; Thu.-Fri., Aug. 21-22, 10 a.m.-8 p.m.; Sat., Aug. 23-Sun., Aug. 24, 9 a.m.-6 p.m.; $7-$85, free viewing for kids under 4.

Women Who Run With the Wolves
The Women's Center for Creative Work is a cooperative enterprise that's hosting an afternoon doll-making workshop, Women Who Run With the Wolves, with crafting collective Necessary Habits. The event is inspired by the Russian fairy tale "Vasilisa the Beautiful" (also known as Vasilisa the Brave), which begins when a dying mother gives her daughter a doll to console her after she's gone. The doll helps little Vasilisa cope with her subsequently grueling existence, complete with a wicked stepmother and stepsisters à la Cinderella. Just when she thinks all hope is lost, Vasilisa finds her doll pointing her in the right direction. In her 1992 book Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype, author and Jungian psychoanalyst Clarissa Pinkola Estés suggests that the narrative is an allegory for women's liberation. Similarly inspired by the piece of Slavic folklore, this workshop interprets the doll as a symbol of feminine intuition and empowerment. Participants are invited to create their own figurines, which they take home at the end, along with a copy of the fairy tale. Echo Chamber Creative Headquarters, 1519 Sunset Blvd., Echo Park; Thu., Aug. 21, 6-9 p.m.; $30, $20 for co-op members. firstname.lastname@example.com.

6th Annual J.U.I.C.E. Hip Hop Festival
Even as the latest Step Up movie returns street dance to the screen, this year's installment of the annual J.U.i.C.E. Hip-Hop Festival returns street dance to the stage. The inventive dance organization with the unwieldy name of Justice by Uniting in Creative Energy has the good sense to go by its acronym, and the good sense to keep putting together this summer gathering of local and international street dancers. Now in its sixth year, the festival lineup promises a full evening of street-dance styles, with performers Jacob "Kujo" Lyons, Harry Weston, Breeze Lee, Emiko Sugiyama, Marie Poppins & Pandora, Toogie & Boogie Frantick, The Physical Poets, Lady Cultura, Millennium Dance Complex Tokyo, Open House, Versa-Style Next Generation, and Hok from Quest Crew. The preshow features one-on-one b-boy and b-girl battles at 7 p.m., with the final battle onstage just before curtain (to participate, go to fordtheatres.org/en/about/probreakingtour), as well as DJ Kenzo, host L. Scatterbrain, graffiti and spoken-word artists. Plus, Mari Koda, better known as Jenny Kido from the Step Up movies, will be there for a meet-and-greet. John Anson Ford Amphitheatre, 2580 Cahuenga Blvd. East, Hlywd.; Fri., Aug. 22, 8:30 p.m.; $30-$50, $15 students, $12 children. (323) 461-3673, fordtheatres.org.

Neckface: Drinking on the Job
Opening reception Aug. 22, 7-10 p.m. "Neckface: Drinking on the Job" is a show a year in the making — and it sounds like one hell of a year. Inspired by the tenaciously seedy bar culture of his new hometown of L.A., this tagger/painter/phenom immersed himself in alcoholism (and related unsavory behaviors) for an extended bender, during which he somehow managed to work furiously on his art. The result: the dark, witty and hilarious pieces created for this much-anticipated installation. Using a method akin to the surrealists' automatic drawings, Neckface basically worked nightly in a fugue state, awoke to discover the surprises he left for himself in the studio the evening before, and then refined and elaborated on them before starting the process all over again. Well, maybe refined is not the word. Neckface is, after all, known for his exceptionally vulgar, sassy and sophomoric yet insightful observations on human nature — and his new barfly compatriots did not skimp on the material. New Image Art Gallery, 7920 Santa Monica Blvd., W. Hlywd.; Fri., Aug. 22, 7-10 p.m.; continues Tue.-Sat., 1-6 p.m., through Sept. 13; free. (323) 654-2192, newimageartgallery.com.

Joe Goode: Flat Screen Nature
If you know painter Joe Goode, who road-tripped to L.A. from Oklahoma in 1959 to make his go as an artist, you probably know his drawings of torn paper or paintings of blue skies. They're pretty nonchalant and usually modestly sized, so it's surprising to see how big and majestic the new paintings in his "Flat Screen Nature" show at Kohn Gallery are. They're two-tone expanses of color painted on sheets of fiberglass. Even though you could tumble right into those deep blues, Goode's still not taking himself too seriously. Every piece has weirdly ragged edges and the titles are jokes: Honk if You See Jesus for one with a ghostly shape near the bottom, or Coming Attraction for one that looks like a big-screen sunset. 1227 N.

Sure, selecting the right building materials is key when creating the look and feel that you want for your bath, or rather your personal oasis. Natural materials, such as wood and stone will give you the feeling of being at a spa or retreat. But, why not take it one step further and take your tub and shower outdoors?!
There's many ways to situate your bathtub or shower outside while still keeping it private. The stone wall (above) and wood planks enclose this bath, keeping tub time personal. Or, you could design it to be half indoors and half outdoors to give yourself a little more privacy while still soaking in the fresh air and sunlight. The exterior fence (below) keeps the space private while the wood plank flooring unites the two areas.
Some of these designs require a lot of architectural planning, but if you just want to add a natural, outdoor feel to your bath without any major construction, then simply bring the outdoors in! Adding some simple greenery indoors is an easy way to lighten up your space and feel one with nature. The succulent wall art (below) is a great way to use wall space and a super trendy way to incorporate plants in your home.
Effective home decor accessories for adding a little bit of nature can range from plants to artwork, but also the right lighting. Selecting modern lighting fixtures made of natural materials, such as our Cassandra Ceiling Light which features a natural grass cloth shade will give the feeling of nature without having to be outside.
Whether you go big or small, adding a bit of nature to your bath or shower can give you the personal oasis you've always wanted.

I was blown away by Alta Marea's modern bathroom luxury pieces with the introduction of the Must and Volo Green collections in Milan this year. I have been working with Alta Marea for many years and this not only far surpassed anything they had done in the past, but far surpassed anything I saw at the show this year! The materials, the details, the forms, the quality... it was all perfect in my eyes. The designers Perissinotto, Zanetti, and Dalto have definitely succeeded in creating "an emotion that has been transformed into lines and material."
The most stunning materials in the Must Collection were the oxidized metal mixed with the gorgeous gray hue and warm copper veining of the Boschetto marble.
The countertop sits just beneath the doors to create a sunken effect. The 45 degree angle on the door is a beautiful detail that creates perfectly matched corners.
Is this a piece of furniture or a vanity? Where is the sink in this composition?
Yet another stunning countertop detail! The rim of the sink sits flush with the door as the countertop rests just below. The use of vanity mirrors with integrated lighting create a beautiful even glow on the entire composition. Our Destiny Square Vanity Mirror is a great alternative to the one above.
And the details don't stop there! The interior, a beautiful orange, complements the marble and the matte lacquer with such bold confidence.
The Volo Green line is founded on the strong desire of helping the environment. The cabinetry and countertop is made of Paperstone, an innovative material made from 100% recycled paper. It's truly genius! The simple mirrors paired with up and down wall sconces, similar to our Holtkoetter Sconce, are the perfect complement to this minimal composition.
A solid material, soft to the touch, that is fabricated like stone! As designer Paolo Zanetti says: "I have finally been able to do a radical, extreme project that makes no compromises, where modernity is at the service of nature. Nature doesn't say thanks: it rejoices."

Designer Ed Chew managed to create a modern pendant light out of drink cartons that would have otherwise ended up in landfills. We found this fun DIY project on Yanko Design, where Chew documents the different stages of how he took it from discarded drink packet to modern light fixture.
Since modern pendant lights are one of my favorite accessories, I just had to share this awesome idea. Chew achieved this Epcot-like ball by unfolding the packets and then refolding them into hexagonal and pentagonal sections that are then pieced together to form a geodesic sphere.
This makes you wonder what other modern home decor accessories or light fixtures can we make out of something that we might otherwise just throw away....
Since we love everything related to modern design, it's no doubt this Eco-friendly DIY pendant made us take a double look! MC49VRXP6HEC

Walk into any major contemporary art museum and you'll find that cross-pollination has long existed between art and furniture design, but the question arises: has contemporary lighting design seen that same infusion of creative energy? Creatives like Isamu Noguchi or Frank Gehry are recognizable international brands, artists who have branched into creating product designs for mass (albeit high end) consumption. But contemporary artists working specifically with light have not had such crossover luck.
Nonetheless, the inspiration these artists have had on modern lighting design can't be underestimated.
Light and Space artists such as James Wheeler (pictured above), Eric Orr and James Turrell have been exploring the effects of light, space and perception since the 1960s. These artists have been groundbreaking in their use of media and their reductive end results have found footing in contemporary design practice.
Turrell's Meeting installation (above) has been on view at MOMA's PS1 gallery in New York since 1986. Turrell's technique is rather simple despite the dramatic effect it produces.
By simply installing under cabinet lighting strategically, anyone can give their walls the "floating" appearance of Turrell's artwork. This floating look has become a predominant idiom in contemporary hospitality lighting design, as seen in this check-in desk at Hong Kong's Luxury East Hotel, designed by CL3 Architects.
Artist Dan Flavin is among some of the most influential artists of the last three decades. His use of raw fluorescent tubes and his emphasis on stark geometries has made it's impact on public spaces as well. Note the motor court entry at the bottom left of the Hotel Wilshire image below.
Recent works of art have a smaller scale, sculptural quality to them. Los Angeles artist David B. Jang created Correlation Cycles in 2010 as a sprawling fixture of circular fluorescent tubes.
A similar circular sculptural effect can be seen in this modern chandelier below by Possini Euro Design.
Possini White Cloud 15" Wide Pendant Chandelier
Artist Lita Albuquerque's works not with light but rather its absence. Her Stellar Axis project, was a 2006 site-specific piece that traced the stars of the nighttime sky onto the ground at the south pole. This was during the evening-less summer months when the midnight sun prevents any starlight from being seen.
Albuquerque's piece included 99 blue orbs that appeared as the negative image of stars on a white snow background. To apply this look to your home, the hand-crafted sphere-style fixture (below, right) light would do the trick.
Pictured on right: Besa Sphere Series 13 1/4" High Opal Matte Glass Accent Lamp
As technologies evolve, artists will inevitably source these changing technologies as media, just as designers will inevitably continue looking to these artists for inspiration. Most of us may never transform an entire room completely into an art installation, but luckily there are plenty of sculptural contemporary chandeliers available to give the home an artistic look.

I think most scifi readers/viewers assume that intelligent, technological aliens have to look way different from us, and possibly think/act way different as well. As a corollary, I also get the impression that most scifi readers/viewers assume any writer whose aliens do look like us must suffer from a lack of imagination.
But how about this propostion:
Technological aliens probably look amazingly similar to us.
We are, after all, the only technological creature we know--and thus the only kind we know for sure can work. This is the scientific "principle of mediocrity," as it's called (ironically).
And evolutionary convergence is powerful.
And all the alternatives I've seen are like proposing silicon-based life forms: they only make sense in environments dramatically different from Earth's (such as the only liquid available for metabolic processes being methane, which has a far lower freezing temp than water).
Proposing that aliens look like us is to scifi fans as saying there's no Santa Claus is to kids. But I lived through the demise of the swamps of Venus and a Mars with breathable air, and we can survive this as well.
Be strong.

Get Christmas Trees and Ornaments Early to Prepare for the Holiday Season
Are you a person who can't get enough of the Christmas season? Do you hate dealing with the mess and maintenance of live Christmas trees, or are you tired of dealing with taking on and taking off lights and decorations? A manufactured Christmas tree might be the solution to your problems. Many Christmas trees that are being produced come with pre-strung lights, and many of these Christmas trees fold up for easy storage. Make sure you're prepared for the next holiday season by shopping through Kmart's wide selection of Christmas trees, Christmas tree stands, Christmas storage, Christmas ornaments and other Christmas accessories.
No matter if you're a traditionalist or you're looking to add a bit of extra festiveness to your holiday, Kmart has a varied selection of Christmas tree stands that are sure to satisfy your needs. A rotating tree stand can help you and your family show off all of the decorations that have been hung with care. Your Christmas tree lights will look more stunning, and you will be able to see the culmination of ornaments from past holidays with a rotating tree stand. Several tree stands are designed to house trees of only certain heights and weights, so be sure that you buy one that will fit your current and future needs.
It's always a terrible feeling to realize that you've misplaced a box of Christmas accessories, dinnerware or ornaments, especially as it draws closer to the day of festivities. Having proper Christmas storage is a good way to keep holiday clutter organized, easy to find and easily accessible. Dinner plate chests, flatware chests, stemware chests and cup chests will keep your special Christmas dinnerware separate from your normal dishes. Many of these boxes are red with green trim, so it will be hard to mistake what's in them. Other storage options include Christmas lighting boxes, ornament boxes, wreath boxes and wrapping supplies boxes.
A favorite memory of many children is opening a box of Christmas ornaments to hang on the tree. At Kmart, you can find several types of ornaments, including ornaments made from ceramic, glass, zinc and acrylic. Several of these ornaments are shatterproof, which is nice if there are small children around. Find an old favorite like a snowman, a Santa or an angel, or find an ornament that will be close to your heart for years to come.
While the holidays might get stressful for some people, Kmart has all of the supplies you need to have a happy and fun Christmas. Shop at Kmart to find great bargains and low prices on holiday trees, tree stands, storage, ornaments and other accessories.

Aquarium LightingLighting is one of the most important components of a reef aquarium. The proper lighting intensity is required for corals and/or invertebrates to survive. Similar to plants, corals and many invertebrates require light for photosynthesis to generate energy and food. If your corals and invertebrates do not receive enough light for photosynthesis, they will not survive.

It's a real shame that this blush isn't permanent because it would be a huge hit and there must be loads of people who never got the chance to try it. It is almost terrifyingly bright in the pan but applied lightly and with a fluffy, soft brush, it gives the prettiest "walking in the cold" flush to the cheeks and looks unbelievably pretty against fair skin. Even though I've sort of migrated to Tarte and Bobbi Brown blushes, I am still so happy I have this beauty.
I love the Sheertone Shimmer finish from MAC and so had high hopes for this blush. It is powdery – when I pick up product with my brush, I can see bits of powder flying around – and it's not very pigmented but it can be built up easily if you want a more dense shade. The fact that it's not very pigmented helps it look natural but I find it doesn't last as long as most of my other MAC blushes; it fades much more quickly.
I have and have had only the regular blush version of Strada. I think it is more nude, with a touch of pink. Wonderful for contour for pale and light skinned ladies – just use light hand. The LE version of Strada seems to be a different formula as well as slightly different color.
I have a medium/ olive skintone with yellow undertones.
Although the colour of this blusher is fairly light, it does give a radiant peachy glow. I've been very impressed with all three blushers. This one in particular is subtle enough to wear every day with a brighter lipstick like Tangerine Dream.
I have been lusting after this blush for a long time, and after getting it in my Christmas stocking, I have to say, I am in LOVE. "Desert Rose" as described by Mac is a matte soft reddish-burgundy. I wouldn't say that it is quite as dark and dramatic as they make it seem, because when you apply it with a light hand it can be used on a wide variety of skin tones. I'm SUPERUBER pale and when this is applied and blended out on me it looks fantastic (which is something I rarely say). I would describe it more as a deep mauve rose, because it's not as dark and frightening as it looks in the pan.
Because this is a matte blush, it doesn't give off any sheen, however it is incredibly pigmented. A little bit of this goes a long way and literally requires just a DAB of your brush. This is my first mac blush, and although I've tried many other brands, this one has lasted the longest on my cheeks throughout the day. (Without having to look like a walking doll in the morning)
I strongly suggest that next time you're at a mac counter, or a mac store to give this blush a try.

I bought this since it was LE even though Christine said it was very similar to Nars Gaiety….. and she was right. If you have Gaiety you definitely don't need this. That being said, it is still a great blush and very beautiful. Very smooth and easy to blend.

I wish I liked this color a little more but I just find it to be kinda boring. I find myself hardly ever reaching for it. If you are looking for something natural, I would say this blush is a good fit. The consistency and texture are great.

I am fair skinned and wear this blush way more than I ever thought I would. It gives this beautiful luminous raspberry wash to my cheeks that I LOVE. A light hand and some good blending really brings out the luminosity. I have never regretted buying this shade and would recommend this to anyone regardless of complexion color.

The hat alone is worth the price. I wore it today to Mud Drags in Maine. Great fit since it's adjustable, I have a small head. Will wear them both the the Sprint Cup Race in NH next month.

Click on the buttons on the bar above for links to other web sites which have route planners and helpful information on getting to Bath Rugby. Click on the globe for a Google Map Satellite image of the stadium. You will also be able to use Google's route planner to map your journey.
Finding somewhere to park in the centre of Bath can be difficult on Saturdays. The one way systems and "bus gates" which restrict private vehicles from taking the shortest north - south route through the centre can make driving irksome. However the major car parks are shown on the map.
There are three good Park and Ride sites outside the city. The route from the M4 to the northern site is shown on the map. Two other sites not shown on the map are at Odd Down on the A367 on the south side and by the Upper Bristol Road bridge over the river on the west side.
The M4 motorway joins Bath to London in the east and Wales in the west. The M5 links the city with the Midlands to the north, with Somerset, Devon and Cornwall to the south. Bath is best accessed from J18 of the M4.
To Lambridge Park & Ride
From J18 of the M4 follow the A46 to Bath, then follow the signs for the town centre on the A4. After the first set of traffic lights the Lambridge Park & Ride (Bath Rugby's training ground) is immediately on your left. The Park & Ride is open for all 1st XV weekend fixtures.
To Bath city centre
Follow directions to Lambridge Park & Ride but then continue on the A4. Now follow the map provided and use the parking located around the city centre. Please note that an experimental access system has been implemented recently which restricts access through the centre itself. Parking is at a premium and is not readily available at busy periods.

Graham Nash 'Back In love' With David Crosby And Stephen Stills
Saturday, August 18, 2012
Crosby, Stills, & Nash are back out on the road with a renewed energy that's making some fans feels as though this tour is marking their best sets since the 1970s. Graham Nash feels that the band fans are seeing on the road -- and on the new CSN 2012 live DVD is showcasing the group at the top of their game -- in any era: "I love Crosby. He's not only a very good friend, but a great, unique musician. And one of the things that I love when I was making his box set, and when I was making my own, and now I'm making Stephen's, was me falling back in love with those guys, that I'm feeling about them that I had when I first met them. And I think that this DVD will prove that a) we wanted to be there at that concert and 2) we really love each other. There's a great friendship and a great bond and it's on every single frame of this video."

Squash - Boys Varsity
Captain: Sam Perkins and Sam Lewis
The Berkshire squash program is dedicated to developing and fostering college-ready players with our two competitive teams and nurturing a life-long love of the game with our thirds squad. Recent alumni now play at Hobart, Franklin & Marshall, Bates, and St. Lawrence. We work hard to instill strong fundamentals at the Junior Varsity level and continue to refine and expand players' skills as they transition to the Varsity level. Both competitive squads emphasize team development and players work hard to challenge each other during practices. The Varsity competes against many of the top teams in New England and finished second at the Class C New England Championships last season. The team travels to multiple tournaments in the region and some varsity players compete in individual tournaments throughout the year.
Berkshire has eight returning Varsity players this season, many eager to utilize the experience they gained on the court last year. The upcoming season should showcase some of our younger players development and highlight the team's dedication to daily improvement.
Perhaps most telling of the players' enthusiasm for the sport at Berkshire is the frequency at which players take to the court during the fall, winter, and spring. If you love the game, you will find someone on campus willing to play any season.
The Boys Squash team finished 16th at 2011 US High School Nationals and took 14th at Class A New Englands: February 2011
