You're welcome... I am also among those people who loved the belle widgets but was a bit taken aback when they didn't arrive in the official version. So trying to solve the problem without breaking the rules. :-)
Hi blitzkid,
I'm certain now that a "Nokia Belle Feature Pack 1" exists and I believe it's on its way to us now.
Btw, have you seen that little monster Nokia has released in Barcelona?, the "Nokia 808 PureView" with none less than 41 MP Carl Zeiss optics and it comes loaded with Belle, exactly with that version mentioned above, so I think it's a matter of time for us to get the update with the widgets among other things.

Hi cintwo,
As blitzkid very well said, it's the missing widgets we're talking about in here. There's of course a bunch of widgets that were included in our Belle update, for example those you've mentioned, but there are others that were seen in some photos, videos, etc., (and are all over the web from the previous leaked Belle's) that were not included and those are what we're asking for in here.
I've made a list of what I've noticed but there's maybe more:
-2g/3g toggle
-Big Analogue Clock
-Big Calendar
-BT Toggle (BlueTooth)
-Cellular Toggle
-Mobile Data Tracker
-Small Music Player
-Offline Toggle
-RSS Feed
-Silent Toggle
-Weather Widgets (small and large)
-Visual Bookmarks
To these I must add some kind of "Multi Photo Collage" widget I've recently noticed in the "Nokia 808 PureView".
28-02-2012 21:23 - edited 28-02-2012 21:24
Some widgets are third parties, or were not included in the update, others should be downloaded as .sis
maybe we'll get more in the future updates.... unless they keep them hidden...

Hi cintwo,
Here you can see a big analog clock widget:
Here you can see a small music widget:
And here you can see a small weather widget and a big calendar widget:
Nokia can say whatever they want but the fact is those widgets exists and is only a matter of Nokia's will for us to have them or not. Another fact to consider is that the "Nokia 808 PureView", coming out the market in Q2 2012, is running "Nokia Belle Feature Pack 1", firmware version 112.xxx.xxxx. Our Belle version is 111.xxx.xxxx.
These facts put altogether makes me think that after 808's launch, at any moment (end of Q2 or beginnings of Q3 I guess) we will receive this "Nokia Belle Feature Pack 1" containing the missing widgets among other things to get updated. I hope it so, at least.

Hi blitzkid,
You're so right. Nokia did and still have a weather widget. Take a look at this link and you'll find some interesting widgets in the 808 with Belle FP1.
01-03-2012 14:53
There is a weather widget available in Nokia Beta Labs from today! I installed it,so far working good.
(maybe it's a begining of a fixing-errors process with Belle? Hope so..)

Hi tonya1903
Thank you very much for the info.
I've already installed the widget and it's running so good.
01-03-2012 18:36
I have found out recently that what we've received is actually "Belle Light" and the real "Belle" is FP1. That's a very Microsoft way... I wonder where it came from?
Well , I have no problem with that, as long as Nokia gives us the missing widgets, restores the missing functionalities, takes care of all the bugs with Belle posted in this forum, gives us that HTML5 browser and gives to N8s that camera software.
01-03-2012 18:45
I've read a couple of posts in here asking for the overclocking with FP1 for Symbian^3 devices and I really don't think it's good for our devices because of faster battery drain and overheating that will end faster our devices' life.
01-03-2012 19:19
I have a Nokia N8 and have been watching Nokia's new 808 and have some thoughts about it.
I, as a N8 user should feel the 808 is a great successor of my phone but actually I don't feel that. At first I was amazed with the 41mp but now, and looking the overall device specs and design I think that somehow we're looking at a monstrous lab-rat escaped from the lab.
I cannot accept that fast as a replacement for my N8 that "superpowered" brick; when I look at my N8 I see beautiful industrial design and now, with Belle inside it's even better than when I first bought it; when I look at the 808 I see a 5 year old industrial design with better specs but not the best it should have, that'll give it a short live, or at least a short reign.
It feels like this is some kind of cruel and frick experiment with symbian users with the only goal to acquire experience for future developing of WPs.

Concerned about student violence in the wake of multiple classroom shootings, many school districts have adopted zero-tolerance policies in recent years under which children have been disciplined for displaying so-called weapons that obviously weren't likely to inflict injury.
But the concept is being extended even further, as a recent incident at a Colorado school district demonstrates. Second-grader Alex Evans, 7, has been suspended for throwing an imaginary hand grenade on the playground during recess, KDVR reports.
The boy says he was pretending to be a hero saving the world and tossed the nonexistent weapon at imaginary evil forces in a box in order to save the world.
A written list of "absolute" rules for Mary Blair Elementary School in Loveland that is linked to the article prohibits "play fighting" and "play" weapons.
The list does not expressly prohibit imaginary weapons, and Superintendent Stan Scheer of the Thompson School District said district policy doesn't either. However, he also said individual schools have the power to supplement the general student code of conduct, the Loveland Reporter-Herald explains.
"It fell under that set of local policy they have in the building, and it was shared with all parents in the community at the beginning of the year," Scheer told the newspaper.
Alex's mother, Mandie Watkins, said her son was "very confused" by the suspension. And, she added, "I'm confused as well, so it makes it hard for me to enforce these rules when I don't even understand them."
Last month, a 6-year-old girl in South Carolina was expelled after bringing to school "an Airsoft gun that shoots plastic pellets" that was not operational. WLTX reported. Last week, the superintendent reversed the decision and allowed her to return to school.

I have been eying the Sabrina pattern for some time now, and have finally done it! I only did buttons on the front of the dress because they were a tad expensive ;) And I purposely mismatched the plaid on the yoke to show the band going around. I am thrilled with how it turned out!

A tale involving Onty the Brontosaurus.
This time, it is two tales in one. Onty is very interested in writing and his teacher Mrs Ballantyne encourages him. Onty writes a Western tale about the Durango Kid, a dinosaur loved by all except the bad element of society. His exploits with Black Joe, the meanest critter to set foot upon the Earth are told in Onty's story. The other part of the tale is about Onty, his teacher, friends and family.

China Cafe robbed at gunpoint

Pretty scary event. I have eaten at the China Café. How much longer before they come in and rob a restaurant and also the customers? Violent crime is here in Mountain View. It's time for the City to step up protection.
on May 14, 2013 at 2:29 pm
Yes, this sounds like a really scary event. Glad no one was hurt!
We can't have police in every place of business all the time. But we can have cameras and we can encourage cash free transactions. Technology can help. For example, auto thefts have halved in the last decade, as cars have become harder to steal.
on May 14, 2013 at 2:42 pm
A common misconception is the police will protect citizens from crime. That belief is both false and dangerous for two reasons. First, the police cannot and do not protect everyone from crime. Second, the government and the police owe no legal duty to protect individuals from criminal attack.
You can Wikipedia on Warren v. District of Columbia for more information. There are many other cases like this.
Where did we get this misconception? Probably from watching TV and movies.

Political sex scandals are much more enjoyable when you weren't rooting for the politician.
This brings us to San Diego. I know you were dying to be brought to San Diego, people. How could you not? It has such wonderful weather.
Also, terrible government. The public pension system is billions of dollars in the hole. Fire services are underfunded, and Southern California is not a place where you want to scrimp on fire services.
In November, for the first time in forever, San Diego voters elected a liberal Democrat as mayor. Bob Filner, a longtime congressman, ran as a champion of city neighborhoods, which always got short shrift from a government fixated on downtown business interests. "This is a town where the hoteliers have treated City Hall as their personal ATM machine," said Steve Erie, a professor of political science at UC San Diego.
Filner, 70, was just beginning what was supposed to be a war to shift resources from the big guys to the little people. Then, this past week, some of his prominent supporters called for his resignation, claiming he had sexually harassed staff members and campaign volunteers.
The complainants, who reportedly include a 72-year-old constituent, have not yet come forward in public. Filner says he's not going anywhere. But when the politician's first defense is "I'm a hugger," it does not necessarily bode well.
Things couldn't get much worse. San Diego is the eighth-largest city in the nation. Reforming it while fighting charges that you regularly grabbed women by the buttocks or put them into a "Filner headlock" seems close to impossible.
The nation is always going to have political sex crises, but, in a perfect world, we would confine them to Congress. The only thing you really need members of Congress to do is vote the way you want them to. They can be a day away from indictment or as crazy as a loon and it doesn't make a whole lot of difference.

Eddie Trudge, the Worth County man who has been fighting an incurable form of lung disease, finally received a double lung transplant needed to keep living.
The donor came from Miami, Florida and the operation was done in mid-October. Etheridge was sent to the emergency room in early October and given 7-10 days to live until the donor finally came in.
Up to those seemingly final days, a benefit concert was thrown for Etheridge as well as several auctions. His nephew, Rocky, relayed a message to all those who helped him Monday morning.
"(Eddie) really wanted me to be able to thank the people who helped him maintain long enough to get to where he is at," Rocky said. "Backwoods Outdoors has been great for us, Lawn Performance can't say enough about them. Brian along with Chris Ship in Sylvester. We couldn't have done it without the help of the community."
Eddie, 58, had been fighting against the lung disease for over three years

Buying an election may be the way things are, but that situation certainly doesn't excuse the practice.
One abnormal case among thousands proves nothing.
Sal -- There has been a candidate at my door (not you).
You lead fundraising 8 fold, so why no filing????? It would be hard to believe it's the 50 bucks. So what's up?
And please, politicians are notorious for making promises today. Come tomorrow? Anything goes!
Look, I made the original comment because it's true (money, and only money, is the major factor in winning most elections). The comment was made about the upcoming elections, nothing personal. Since you have by far the largest 'war chest', it's understandable you would take exception. That exception, however, does zilch to justify the ugly truth.

Fall Outdoor Leadership and Adventure Wrap-up
Outdoor Leadership and Adventure, Fall 2009
The Fall 2009 OLA was a tremendous success! Every Tuesday and Thursday we set out in a little, yellow bus and went out for outdoor challenges, adventures, and personal growth. We will all have great memories of hiking in Forest Park, learning about tents and shelter, canoeing on the Willamette, ecological restoration, maps and navigation, visiting a farm, biking on the Leif Erikson, disc golf, rock climbing, and a forestry hike. Students also participated in a rafting or a backpacking trip! It's amazing to think that we crammed so many adventures into such a short period of time.
Ultimately, OLA is a great opportunity to spend some time learning about the abundance of recreational opportunities in our region, enjoy the outdoors with a great grout of students, devlop personal leadership skills, and learn to work as a group to meet unique challenges.
Please click on a photo, press play, turn on some music (the evolution of rock was en vogue this fall), and watch the slideshow. Enjoy!

this Issue
Other Campus Resources for Help With Basic Skills
Educational Media
This three-times a year news letter is published by the Renton Technical College Library. It is intended to spotlight RTC Library media resources, and issues regarding the use of educational media—videos, DVDs, audiotapes, software, and other electronic resources.
If you have any questions or suggestions for topics, please call the library at (425) 235-2331, or email Laura Staley at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"I didn't know this program was going to take so much math...computer skills...writing." Do you hear this from your students?
Or do employers tell you that their new employees are have a "skills gap"? A National Association of Manufacturers survey reported that 59% of new workers lacked "basic employability skills (attendance, timeliness, etc), that 34% had poor reading and writing skills, and 26% had inadequate math skills.
Consider sending the students to the Library to look for basic skills videos and DVDs. In this issue we look at just a few of the many helpful titles carried by RTC Library.
Computer skills resources are covered in the article below. On page 2, we look at a few ESL resources, and videos on other communications topics, including writing and giving presentations. On page 3, titles that deal with mathematics and those all-important interpersonal skills titles are reviewed.
On page 4, the focus shifts to other departments on campus that offer basic skills assistance, and finally spotlights a Library resource that teaches fundamental physics knowledge
Are your students internet savvy, but lack familiarity with useful Microsoft programs? Try the following videos or DVDs:
Word 2003, Levels 1-2. Media Call # 652.5535 MICROSO 2004w
PowerPoint 2003, Levels 1-2. Media Call # 006.6869 POWERPO 2004
Excel 2003, Levels 1-2. Media Call # 005.36922 MICROSO 2004e.
Are they totally unfamiliar with computers? The Open Lab in the TRC building and the Student Success Center offer a program called Teknimedia VLC, which covers how to use a mouse, buttons, icons, and how to open and close programs. Tell them to ask at the desk for help finding the program.
Do they need keyboarding practice? Both the Library and the Open Lab offer access to Southwest Keyboarding. There are drills for all skill levels.
Does your class need instruction on doing research for assignments? Call Debbie Crumb, at x5678, to schedule a Library class on searching for websites, books, or journal articles.
Instructional Improvement and the RTC Library are teaming up to offer you previews of classroom media resources.
Once a month we'll take an hour to show clips from a few of the library's videos, DVDs, or CDs, and discuss ways the material might be used in the class. We're choosing materials that can be used in any classroom, from welding to phlebotomy. And we'll provide the popcorn!

A young man I know committed suicide. Someone remarked that if he was troubled that day, he is really troubled now because the Bible says he is in hell forever. Is this true? If so, can you give me Bible references to support it, likewise if it is false?
That is NOT what the Bible says. That's what a lot of people think, but God isn't one of them.
Trusting Christ is the only criterion for determining whether one goes to heaven or hell. If the young man had trusted Christ and committed suicide as the only way he could think of to make the pain stop, then he is with the Lord because of the security of the believer. For instance, Rom. 8:38-39 says,
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, nether the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Nothing--including our own acts such as suicide--can separate believers (the context of Paul's letter) from God's love.
Consider also John 10: 28-19, which shows we are DOUBLY safe:
"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand."
Not even ourselves.
If the young man had not trusted Christ, then unfortunately he is in hell, but not because of suicide: it would be because of his refusal to believe in and entrust himself to Jesus.
I hope this helps.

In a Broadway season searching for a breakout musical hit, the case of Parade was a true heartbreaker. A risky work with an adult point of view and a stirring score by neophyte Jason Robert Brown, the Lincoln Center Theatre production (presented in association with the beleaguered Livent) drew a mixed press and failed to catch on at the box office. It closed on February 28, after a run of 89 performances, leaving Broadway for the moment without a likely winner for the spring awards season.
The common wisdom about Parade was that it was too dark and unpleasant. Certainly this opera-like work was not aimed at audiences looking for simple amusement. Alfred Uhry's book dramatized the case of Leo Frank, a New York Jew living in Atlanta, GA, who in 1913 was accused of murdering a young girl named Mary Phagan. The case became a lightning rod for contemporary social tensions, including anti-Semitism, industrialization (Mary Phagan worked in a pencil factory managed by Frank), and racial prejudice (Frank's main accuser was black). Today, there is little doubt that Frank failed to receive due process; testimony was manufactured and the jury was only too willing to convict an outsider for this unthinkable crime. When the governor of Georgia, upon further investigation, commuted Frank's sentence from death to life in prison, Frank was kidnapped and lynched. To this day, Mary Phagan's murder has not been solved.
Parade is a musical constructed on three levels, which move from deeply personal to the overtly political: The central story is that of Leo Frank and his wife, Lucille, who, in their quest for justice, find their quietly unhappy marriage transformed into a powerful love affair. Surrounding them are the many characters who use Frank's trial for their own ends--the prosecuting attorney looking to advance his political career, the journalist in search of a juicy story, the newspaper publisher who exploits ethnic tensions; the witness who accuses Leo Frank to obtain clemency for his own crimes. All these stories are told against the broader canvas of Atlanta, whose citizens ease their anxieties about the modern world by mythologizing the pre-Civil War past.
Parade is a sprawling work with at least 14 significant singing or speaking roles and a narrative that covers dozens of locations. It's a project that could easily buckle under its own weight, which is why Riccardo Hernandez, whose scenic designs for the Broadway productions Bring in 'da Noise/Bring in 'da Funk and The Tempest were known for their spare elegance, was an inspired choice. For Parade, which was staged in the Vivian Beaumont Theatre by Harold Prince, Hernandez designed a basic environment featuring a three-sided black surround and a giant tree placed at the rear stage right, with bare branches spreading ominously over the stage. At times, the walls of the surround opened to reveal barred windows, creating a space that could serve either as the pencil factory or the prison where Frank was incarcerated. The juxtaposition of the surround and the tree created a metaphor with multiple meanings: it evoked the constant tensions between the South's agrarian past and its industrial present. It also served as a reminder of the deeply entrenched nature of the American South, its adherence to tradition and abhorrence of social change. And ultimately, it served as the hanging tree for Leo Frank.
Hernandez's design evolved over several different versions, but the concept of the tree and the surround has a basis in Uhry's script. The show's first number, "The Old Red Hills of Home," begins with a young Civil War soldier singing an anthem about his homeland. During the course of the song, he is transformed into an elderly veteran attending a Confederate Memorial Day parade in 1913. "There's a line in the script that says the soldier is standing by a huge old oak tree," says Hernandez. "However, the surround is a Hal Prince master touch. What I had at first was too romantic, too open. I had legs framing the entire tree--it looked like a Noguchi sculpture. Hal got excited by this idea, but he wanted more flexibility. Then he showed me a picture by George Grosz--a painting of a courtyard and a wall with square windows, and that's how the whole thing came about." For the designer, the key is what he calls the "guillotines," which open to create dozens of horizontal windows in the walls. "We're in a prison that can transform itself into an industrial environment that also represents the South," he says. Hanging over the set at all times is the wall of a jail cell, a constant reminder of Leo Frank's future.
A third key element was a scenic drop, a translucency depicting a cloudy, windswept sky (another reminder of the Southern past) which was revealed behind the rear wall of the surround. For both the funeral of Mary Phagan and a crucial love scene, the sky was blue-gray. For a chain-gang sequence, Hernandez used a plain cyc which Howell Binkley's lighting gave the color of blood oranges. In some scenes, the top section of the surround's rear wall remained in place, guillotines shuttered, framing the scenic drop and giving it the look of a letterboxed film image. For certain scenes, including the opening number and the Act II chain gang sequence "Feel the Rain Fall," a rural landscape was placed against the sky.
There were, however, many other aspects to Hernandez's design. Above all, there were the parades, one at the beginning, one at the end, and one at the top of the second act, when Frank's case begins to receive national attention (during the numbers "It Goes On and On" and "A Rumblin' and a Rollin'"). Each parade, which further underlined the Atlantan obsession with the glorified rural past, was staged behind a scrim that featured a cutout of silhouettes depicting spectators in the street. The scrim masked the automation that controlled the parade, a 160' chain, placed in the show's deck and driven by a 34A motor located under the stage (the chain was visible through Plexiglas placed in the deck at the stage-left and stage-right loading and unloading points). Each of the approximately 20 parade floats was mounted on a steel wagon; attached to the front of each wagon was a UHMW (ultra high molecular weight) knife. Each knife had a set of teeth that could be engaged by the moving chain. The floats were loaded stage left by stagehands, who fed the knives into the chain; the chain then pulled the floats across the stage. The floats were unloaded stage right and returned to stage left via the backstage crossover area, where they were lined up for the next parade. The slow pace of the chain motor gave the parades a stately, slightly surreal quality, which was heightened by the use of strip lights built into the upstage side of the cutout frame to create an eerie uplighting effect.
As with everything else in Parade, this effect was the result of intensive collaboration between Hernandez, production carpenter Walter Murphy ("he was like a guardian angel on this production," says Hernandez) and the staff of Scenic Technologies, of New Windsor, NY. For the record, Scenic Technologies did the show's deck and tracking, and was also responsible for fabricating the giant tree. Moving scenery was controlled by Scenic Technologies Stage Command Systems(R). The parade floats were built by F & D Scenic Changes, of Calgary, Alberta. The surround walls were built by Great Lakes Scenic Studios of Burlington, Ontario. Other important members of the team included assistant scenic designer Paul Weimer ("he was the best," says Hernandez), production propertyman George T. Green, Jr., and production flyman Bill Nagle.
Hernandez says that a key piece of research for the parade floats, with its procession of Civil War veterans, Southern belles, flags, and firefighters and other civic groups, was the book Days of Jubilee, by Brooks McNamara and Robert R. MacDonald (Rutgers University Press). Although it is subtitled "The Great Days of Public Celebrations in New York, 1788-1909," the designer says it provided him with the right visual research regarding flags, bunting, and other important details of such events.
The parade floats were not the only moving components in Hernandez's design. We first meet Mary Phagan in a number titled "The Picture Show," staged on a trolley that crossed from stage right to stage left. To accommodate the trolley and other pieces of scenery, Scenic Technologies created a new pair of voms by placing black masking about 3' in front of the Beaumont proscenium. After crossing the stage, the trolley entered the stage-left vom, was broken down, and hung in the air. Also, three elevators, with hydraulic trap doors, quickly and efficiently transported actors and scenery up to the stage from below. The elevators located downstage right and left were operated by conventional 34A electric motors, and had a capacity of 600lbs. The elevator located upstage center was much larger ("It's the size of a Volkswagen bus," says Murphy, laughing), with a capacity of approximately 1,500lbs, it was previously used to power the bandstand in last season's Broadway musical High Society.
One particularly startling moment occurred near the end of Act I, during the long musical sequence that makes up Frank's trial. It was a startling shift in perspective, achieved by the rearrangement of scenery in full view of the audience. During the early part of the trial sequence, the courtroom was represented by several scenic units--a wagon unit for the trial spectators, and a pallet for Frank and the attorneys at stage left, with the judge's bench and witness box at stage right and the courtroom doors at stage center. During the testimony of the black janitor Jim Conley, a turning point in the trial, the witness box (a manual unit) was moved to a more prominent position at stage center. As Conley's testimony climaxed, the jury box, not seen before, came downstage center, while the stage-right crowd wagon and lawyer pallet moved offstage. An identical set of units--a crowd wagon and laywer's pallet entered from stage right. The result was like that of a reverse angle in a film. "It's another Hal Prince moment," says Hernandez. "It's like a movie--he wanted to create different angles for the trial. He wanted a kind of 360-degree movement where, in the first half of the sequence, we, the audience, are the jury. But at the end, the jury is there for real. And the only way to do that was to move pieces little by little and then stage that big changeover. All set pieces were automated, except for the judge's bench, which was moved by actors. The jury itself consisted of one actor and 11 cutouts of men, a daring technique used throughout by Hernandez (many of the parade floats blended real actors with two-dimensional people), that further heightened the surreal nature of some of the play's incidents.
The onstage effects were only the beginning of the work for Murphy, who also had to oversee the construction of a new orchestra pit for the production, as well as a separate working area to load props and actors on the elevators. Overall, he had a crew of 14 people, including himself, to run the show. The production also required 19 deck automation effects and six flying automation effects, which were run on two consoles. Murphy adds that the Parade control system, and most of its winches, were used in the previous Lincoln Center Theatre production of Twelfth Night, which was also built in part and automated by Scenic Technologies.
In spite of its shortened run, Hernandez allows that he feels very proud of his work on Parade. He also enjoyed working with his collaborators, and he is, quite justifably, angry. "I don't know what the future holds for us, but I'm so honored and proud to have worked on a project of this depth in the arena commonly known as commercial theatre. Unfortunately, American audiences seem more than ever to be demanding to be entertained and dazzled by overproduced theatrical simulacrums created by corporations with the sole purpose of attaining more and more. I pray that the true people of the theatre like Hal Prince and George C. Wolfe [for whom Hernandez frequently designs] keep bringing the idiosyncratic creative energy into this otherwise stifling atmosphere where a Faustian bargain is at stake every time."
Unlike Riccardo Hernandez, costume designer Judith Dolan has had more experience with Harold Prince, having designed several of his productions--her Tony Award is for his most recent revival of Candide. Still, she freely admits to approaching the project with a certain amount of concern, for a number of reasons. "This is a true story; it's important to respect that," she says. "There are so many books written about this case. The onus of history was on me. I didn't want to decide Leo Frank's guilt or innocence. To me, the show is not a whodunit. It's about transgression of justice, about prejudice, about victims--a number of issues that are very, very current. The problem was, how do you treat history without getting bogged down in historical artifacts? You can't put too much between the performers and the audience, or that connection won't happen." For that matter, the characters in Parade range all over the social map, from powerful politicians and their elegant wives to black servants, child laborers, chain-gang prisoners, Confederate veterans, and, of course, the Atlantans who take part in the Confederate Memorial Day parades.
Taking all these issues into account, Dolan vowed to keep her designs simple and real. "I picked the lightest fabrics, made the simplest choices, that I could and still deliver the show. The actors weren't encumbered by clothes. I wanted you to see the costumes, get them, and forget about them."
At times, Dolan says, she had to defend her insistence on simplicity and reality. For example, when Uhry first saw Leo Frank's prison uniform, "Alfred asked, 'Does he have to wear those chain-gang stripes? Can't you put him in a denim shirt?' And I said, 'No, because it's not true.' And as soon as I said that, he understood my choice and accepted it. Trying to be truthful and simple is hard."
Of course, research played an important part in Dolan's work. Perhaps more than her collaborators, she focused on the children in the show, especially Mary Phagan and the other girls who work in the factory. "I got emotionally tied to the factory children," she says. "They don't have a voice in this story and I felt I had to give them a visual voice. There's this great research done by the photographer Louis Hines during this period--they're beautiful photographs of mill children that became so crucial to me. The key was to make those children real, not glamorized, but not too dirty or tattered, either." As a result, the girls--Essie, Iola, Monteen--make their courtroom appearances in dresses that are faded and worn, yet neat and clean, representing their attempts to look their best with limited resources.
Overall, Dolan says, the show's 1913-1915 time period provided her with some challenges. "This is one of those transitional periods, where the look went from semi-Edwardian to the beginnings of the suffragette. That was great for Lucille; at the beginning you see her as this rather unimaginative Southern lady--simple but nice. And then she moves into something much freer." Indeed, Lucille's early costumes featured a high neckline and a certain voluminous propriety about them. As she becomes a crusader for her husband, she adopted a simpler, more tailored look.
The transformation of Leo and Lucille from polite strangers to passionate lovers was subtly marked by changes in Dolan's costumes. This is especially true in the climactic number, "All the Wasted Time," sung by the couple during a conjugal prison visit. "I worked hard on Lucille's dress," says the designer. "I ended up changing the fabric at the last minute, but it had to be about the woman, not the dress. It had to be feminine but simple. Her neckline has gone down from this High Edwardian look to this soft open throat with that tiny little medallion necklace. As for Leo, the irony about the scene is he's become free, yet he's standing there in a flannel prison shirt and prison pants. It's a wrenching image, after he's finally shed that black suit of his."
For Dolan, historical research was a source of inspiration, but she was far more concerned with the actors onstage. "Alfred showed me pictures of Leo and Lucille; I looked at them and distilled them. For example, the real Lucille had these rather large, elaborate Edwardian hairstyles that were not very attractive. What that said to me was, this is a woman without imagination. That became the important thing--not her hairstyle or the fact that the real Lucille was heavyset."
Dolan's color palette was necessarily restrained; however, she added a welcome splash of color to the number "Pretty Music," set at a tea dance at the Georgia governor's mansion. Here the ladies of the chorus appeared in hand-embroidered tea dresses. "I went to [the ballroom dancer] Irene Castle and some of her clothes," she says about her research. "I also had pictures of butterflies from the period. These became my butterfly dresses. I created a sense of iridescence by combining silk on top of other silks, to create a bit of hushed color. I did feel at that point, we needed to deliver a bit of relief to the audience. But it still had to be within the context of what we had done elsewhere, which was, essentially a black-and-white movie."
The "Pretty Music" sequence was one of the few instances where silks were used in the show. Otherwise, says Dolan, laughing, "I was committed to the land of cotton. Of course, cotton and linen light so beautifully--the wrinkles, the sense of the bodies underneath, were perfect for me." Lighting was a particularly crucial element here; Dolan didn't distress any costumes until she first saw them under Howell Binkley's lighting. "I told Howell afterwards, I'd never worked so closely with a lighting designer. Those are heavily painted clothes, and yet I don't think they look it onstage."
Another tricky item involved the parades, which feature floats populated by girls dressed as antebellum Southern belles. "You had to believe that these girls made these dresses themselves," says Dolan. "I watched the [1915 D. W. Griffith film] Birth of a Nation. The hairstyles are more 1912, but you can tell that somebody made those clothes--they weren't slick." These costumes were made of a cotton blend, "but we dipped them, dyed them, used the fabrics on the wrong side." As for the parade spectators, the designer mixed a variety of fabrics--still working within a fairly tight palette--to create a sense of visual variety and to imply different walks of life, a process that she compares to blending the elements in a trompe l'oeil still-life painting
Most of the costumes were executed by Barbara Matera Ltd. In New York, with other pieces built at the Livent Costume Shop and Malabar, Ltd., both in Toronto. The hats were built by Rodney Gordon Inc., with millinery by Woody Shelp. Accessories, painting, and breakdown were handled by Martin Izquierdo Studio Ltd. Wigs and hairstyles were by Paul Huntley. Sheila Kehoe and Cherie Trotter were assistant costume designers. Lynn Bowling was wardrobe supervisor, with a staff of eight dressers.
Again and again, Dolan returns to her creative mantra for the show: Keep it simple and real. "Because the set is so minimal and the lighting is so film noir, it's up to the clothes to say where we are. Yet it's not a parade of costumes. I was committed to the idea that clothes were not changed as time elapsed--they were changed for dramatic reasons, for character reasons, to demonstrate a dynamic onstage." She acknowledges Prince's influence on her thinking: "Hal has such respect for the audience in releasing their imaginations, and not trying to deliver every specific detail. He trusts his audience. It was really hard. And I had a wonderful time."
The huge oak tree that sits silently upstage as events unfold during Parade is a grim reminder of the inevitability of this tragedy's final act. The metaphorical tree was an inspired choice on the part of set designer Riccardo Hernandez, but it also proved a bit of a challenge for lighting designer Howell Binkley.
"My goal was to give the tree life throughout the show," Binkley explains, "because that's where Leo Frank is going to hang. It was a matter of tempering it in different directions, and just keeping it alive in each of the 45 scenes of the show, whether we're in somebody's office, or the jail, or wherever. Hal Prince said, 'Let's have it live upstage, where it could always be ominous, and just kiss it with light.' I thought it was going to be a real pain in the ass, but it got to be fun to be able to texture it throughout the show."
To that end, Binkley decided to light the tree from a variety of angles. He specified a grate in the floor of the Vivian Beaumont stage, directly under the tree, in which he placed L&E 75W flood Ministrips. This worked particularly well during the highly stylized scenes of Atlanta's annual Confederate Memorial Day Parade, in which a black scrim descends midstage and live actors mix with black cutouts as a series of surreal floats pass by, the grate completely hidden from the audience. Binkley placed a similar Ministrip system above the tree, and then added some low sidelight from the upstage left and right windows in an industrial brick wall surround that Hernandez designed to fly in during several key scenes.
"We had to have a lot of access for the actors to get on- and offstage," Binkley explains, "so Riccardo provided me with these windows to really shoot light through and keep the sides relatively clear. Those window lights worked not only for the tree, but also in the scene where Leo is first brought into the Fulton County Jail; that's the first time the whole set is really lit up in the show. It's all white light, coming through all the windows, and it really opens up the space for the first time."
Prince wanted Parade to be performed on a thrust stage in order to bring the characters closer to the audience for the show's intimate moments, such as those in Leo's jail cell with his wife Lucille. He got his wish with the Vivian Beaumont, and it was up to Binkley to bring warmth and humanity to these two characters as they struggled to come to terms with their plight. "It was really tough isolating that downstage thrust," the designer says. "You've got the audience on three sides, so you really have to pull them in, but you also have to try and keep the atmosphere that was established at the top of the show. Leo's in jail for just about the entire show, until he's transferred to the prison farm at the end, right before he's hung. So you have to nurture that scene so that every time we go back to it, it's a different time of day. You always have to texture it with different looks."
One of the most brutally powerful scenes occurs in the second act, when a sledgehammer-wielding chain gang pounds on rocks in the burning sun as one of Leo's accusers sings the blues number "Feel the Rain Fall." The chain gang was placed in silhouette in front of a cloud tram; Binkley used a combination of Rosco 23, Lee 105, and clear to denote the hot Georgia sun. "We flew them on a striplight," Binkley explains. "We called it a horizon flying electric, because it would start low and then slowly move up during the course of the song. We also put a lot of frost in there to diffuse it, so it kind of lifted the scenic landscape onstage."
For a large Broadway musical, Binkley's equipment list was relatively simple: approximately 650 conventionals--made up mostly of ETC Source Fours and Source Four PARs, with a few Arri and Altman fresnels--with approximately 100 Wybron Coloram II scrollers, and an MDG Atmosphere ATM-S fogger. Binkley also used a smattering of moving lights: about 20 Vari*Lite automated luminaires, made up of VL2C-Qs(TM) and VL6(TM) spot luminaires. Chad McArver served as associate designer on the project; Harry Sangmeister was the Vari-Lite operator.
Binkley had worked with Prince several times previously, including on Kiss of the Spider Woman and the first, ill-fated production of Whistle Down the Wind. "Hal has a creative vision that he funnels into everyone," the designer explains. "And it's really nice to be able to start knowing where you're going. It can be difficult when you're trying to out-guess your director or other designers. But he just stirs a big bowl with all of us in it, like a big soup. He challenges everyone: the followspot operators, the crew, the automation. It's very collaborative and it doesn't get nasty."
Jonathan Deans' sound for Parade was an exercise in simplicity--a rare occurrence these days for a major Broadway musical. Two factors contributed to this decision: the show's location in the 1,800-plus seat, thrust-stage, subscriber-based Vivian Beaumont Theatre at Lincoln Center; and the show itself, with its turn-of-the-century time period and intimate focus on the relationship between Leo and Lucille Frank.
"What's tricky about the Vivian Beaumont is that most of what they produce there are plays," explains Deans, "so when the subscribers come in, they're used to hearing a certain sound. A large portion of the audience, especially during previews and the first few weeks after it opens, are the subscribers. In comes a musical, and it changes everything for them. So it's a matter of keeping the integrity of the theatre to what they're used to, while keeping the integrity of the musical going in there, and of knowing when you should use reinforcement, and when you should remain invisible.
"We were able to keep the technology down as low as possible for the show," the designer adds, "which was good, because it's not that kind of a show. It's not a Ragtime or a Les Miz, or one of these other epics. It's a small, very pure play with some great music. So we just tried to keep it simple."
Because the Vivian Beaumont is a thrust stage, with no proscenium to speak of, Deans arranged the speakers--Meyer MSL-2 two-ways--in a cluster position. Other equipment, all provided by Masque Sound, included a Cadac J-Type console, Yamaha DMP 9-16 and 01-V digital mixers, Sennheiser SK-50 UHF transmitters, and B&K DPA 4060 mics, as well as his old standby, LCS LD-88 digital mixers. "LCS was used in really low-key ways," he notes. "Because of the thrust, the performers went all the way upstage and all the way downstage, so I had to change time delays. When performers move further away, you have to add milliseconds to their voice signals so that it works perceptually with what you're looking at."
Parade featured a 19-piece orchestra, but because Riccardo Hernandez's set design called for three elevators, not all of the band members fit in the pit. Odd man out was the percussionist, who was placed in a dressing room down a corridor about 100' away from the rest of the orchestra. "We worked it out by having the percussionist, Dean Thomas, be A), an excellent percussionist, and B), a nice guy," Deans quips. "He's got to be in a room all by himself for the entire show, so he has a video monitor and audio monitors in the room. We also gave him an in-ear monitor, which he plugs in, because once he starts to play, he can't hear the speakers."
In keeping with the theme of simplicity, Deans endeavored to make the sound effects on Parade as unobtrusive as possible. But as is sometimes the case, the less complicated the problem, the more complicated the solution. Case in point: a simple, Victorian, hand-cranked doorbell. "Hal wanted a doorbell that would wake everybody up and be a shocking sound," Deans explains. "But since it was the turn of the century, they would have only had the hand-cranked bell. It's very hard to make that kind of bell alarming, unless you go electric, which would have broken a boundary. And I couldn't find one on CD, because they were all wimpy things. So I ended up buying a replica of a Victorian bell at Restoration Hardware. Suddenly, this little doorbell cost more money than half the production."
Associate sound designers on Parade were Peter Hylenski and Kurt Fischer; Marc Salzberg served as production soundman. Though Parade closed, Deans had three shows on Broadway during the first part of the year--Ragtime and Fosse--plus several Cirque du Soleil productions, including O at Bellagio and the just-opened La Nuba in Orlando. It's been a busy time for the sound designer, but he recently moved into a new house in Las Vegas with his pregnant wife, and was going to take some time to fix the place up. Unfortunately, he won't be able to use the Victorian doorbell. "I lost it," Deans notes. "It sort of went away with all the boxes from the show. It would have been nice to put it in the house here, but I guess I can buy another one."

I attended this event and it was GREAT! Happy people & happy pooches.
Looking forward to it happening again next year.
The One Brick group is a wonderful organization that helps many neighborhood non-profits and well worth supporting.
A great time & a great cause, what could be better?

I hope you all thoughtfully kept your pooches on leash and brought your poop scoopers and didn't leave a big mess in our community park. I am really tired of off-leash dogs. The owners always say, "Oh, don't worry, he wouldn't hurt you." after their dog scares the heck out of you. I am tired of walking across land mines left by inconsiderate dog owners.
I know many owners are considerate (and thank you to those good folks. We all appreciate it.), but we need some more enforcement on this for the albeit dog owners who let their poorly trained dogs run ripshod through the parks. They are inconsiderately creating risk and diminishing the comfort of the park environment for other park users (including other dog owners whose dogs are sometimes attacked.)There are just enough of these folks to be a real problem.
I hope they used this event to publicize the rules about dogs and to encourage people to be more considerate about sharing park space with others.

Take a look at Hoover Park on any morning. You will see no less than 9 dogs in the little league outfield or just outside the LL fence, all off leash. And the dog run is totally empty. And the dogs sometimes seem to find the flag football camp an attractive group to run after. Animal control apparently has more pressing things to deal with, as I've asked them to have a word with these dog owners three consecutive days this week alone. How about some citations to get their attention. We spent tax dollars to enlarge the dog runs, but I guess those places are for "other's dogs".

I am a part time professional photographer. I published a book on flower photography called 'Serendipity' that made the Blurb Books choice of the week last year. It is currently available and is very popular as a gift for Christmas or Mothers Day or because you love flowers.. I live in New Zealand and travel extensively, camera always close at hand. I have won several major Awards and I am passionate about photography which I hope shows in my imagery. Not many words.......the photos tell the stories. My New York book does not do the obvious tourist shots.... it is a personal journey through the streets and subways from Brooklyn to Queens; Poughkeepsie to 5th Avenue and everywhere in between. This is a coffee table book looking at the greatest city in America through the eyes of a photographer!!

Gallery given sought after painting of the town's past
2:00pm Thursday 13th March 2014 in News
A PAINTING of a nostalgic scene from Southend's past has been donated to the town's art gallery.
Thrilled staff from the Beecroft Art Gallery have been presented with a soughtafter original artwork to bring tourists flocking in.
The picture of a seascape "Windjammer with a tug standing by off Southend", which features Southend's world-famous pier, was donated to the gallery by Network Rail.
It is an original picture by maritime artist Charles Pears, first used as a basis for a railway destination poster. Now gallery experts are hunting for an original copy of the poster to team up with it.
The painting – together with the poster, if it can be found – will be exhibited when the gallery reopens at its new home in the former Southend Central Library, in Victoria Avenue, in September.
Derek Jarvis, councillor responsible for culture and tourism, said: "This wonderful painting will be a terrific addition to the Beecroft Art Gallery. In the Twenties and Thirties, railway companies employed some very eminent artists of the time – such as Charles Pears – to create advertising posters, encouraging trippers to travel by train to key locations.
"These original pictures are highly-prized artworks and it is fitting that we will be able to display this painting at the destination it was promoting.
"We are very grateful to NetworkRail for this generous donation, which celebrates Southend's tourism heritage."
The arrival of the picture is one of many developments going on behind the scenes while the Beecroft prepares to move into its new home.
The Friends of the Beecroft are acquiring seven pictures by local artist Alan Sorrell.
These and more of his paintings will be displayed in November at a special exhibition dedicated to his work.
Lord Faulkner of Worcester, chairman of the Railway Heritage Designation Advisory Board of the Science Museum, said: "I am delighted Charles Pears' wonderful painting is going home to Southend. It was originally commissioned by the London and North Eastern Railway to promote rail travel to Southend, and was one of a series of fine works of art painted by leading artists for the railway companies."
If anyone has an original copy of the railway poster which goes with it, contact Clare Hunt, curatorial manager for Southend Museums Service, on 01702 434449 or at
