Plan of the Day Announcements POD RSS
Modernizing Enlisted DetailingNavy Detailers will implement Billet Based Distribution (BBD) to allow leadership to better align Sailors to positions and make better-informed detailing decisions. BBD will replace or modify many old personnel systems allowing for greater flexibility and improve our ability to react to unexpected issues.

New Navy Standardized FPO Mail Address FormatNavy Fleet Post Office (FPO) addresses for ships, mobile units and ashore FPOs are being converted to an address format compatible with the U.S. Postal Service's (USPS) address system, according to a Nov. 18 NAVADMIN message.

Video Message to Command PASS CoordinatorsLeadership from Pers-2 has a message to all CPCs across the fleet.

CPCs serve a pivotal role in your Commands, and have a direct effect on your Sailors' pay and benefits; equip them with the right tools to perform their job.
Fix Your Credit ScoreYour credit score can be as haunting as it is helpful to know, and it can determine the course of your financial destiny. The way a credit score affects an individual directly is best demonstrated with interest rates, and Sailors with bad credit often end up paying more for things than people with good credit.

Did you buy any gifts online this year? For many, it's the only way to shop. However, it seems that less people were spending this season.
A new report from comScore (via Reuters) says that online spending fell 3 percent, when compared with last year's numbers. The report does not take into account any last-minute shoppers that were clicking after December 23.
Those lower numbers might have something to do with the economy, but the Reuters report also cites the fact that we had five fewer shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year.
Still, the amount spent between November and December came in around the $25.5 billion mark. Sites such as eBay (85.4 million visitors), Amazon (76.2 million) and Apple (35 million) most likely scored the most of that cash. Walmart also saw a 4 percent increase in its traffic.
Did you do any online shopping this season? What are some of your favorite sites for prices and customer service? Sound off in the comments section below.

Gloucestershire 216 for 5 (Cockbain 98*, McClenaghan 3-46) beat Worcestershire 229 (Fell 89, Kervezee 80, W Gidman 4-41) by five wickets
Related Links
Players/Officials: Ian Cockbain
Series/Tournaments: Royal London One-Day Cup | England Domestic Season
Teams: England | Gloucestershire | Worcestershire
Ian Cockbain booked Gloucestershire's place in the Royal London One-Day Cup quarter-finals after escaping from an early ambush by Worcestershire paceman Mitchell McClenaghan at New Road. The New Zealander took two wickets in five balls as Gloucestershire stumbled to 10 for 3 but a rain hold-up allowed them to regroup before Cockbain's unbeaten 98 secured a five-wicket win with 17 balls to spare.
Worcestershire, who still have a slim chance of reaching the knockout stage, disappointingly folded for 229 after looking well set with 89 from Tom Fell and 80 by Alexei Kervezee.
Rain during the interval brought Duckworth-Lewis calculations into play. The target became 216 in 43 overs and a further revision to 214 from 41 followed a second, shorter break after McClenaghan's damaging intervention.
Cockbain brought some composure to a critical situation and Gloucestershire were able to recover from losing Michael Klinger and Chris Dent to catches behind the wicket in McClenaghan's first over. Hamish Marshall also fell cheaply, pulling Jack Shantry to midwicket, but Cockbain and Gareth Roderick blunted Worcestershire's seam-reliant attack in a partnership of 64 in 12 overs.
When Roderick was bowled for 28 by one that kept low from Shantry, the impressive Will Gidman stepped in by adding 44 from 40 balls to his bowling return of four for 41. The allrounder was caught at deep square-leg as McClenaghan finished with 3 for 46 but Gidman's brother Alex made 28 not out in escorting to Cockbain to a personal-best one-day score with 13 fours, mostly from stylish drives.
Worcestershire's innings was heavily based on a single partnership and then disintegrated so badly that the last eight wickets - half of them taken by Gidman - crashed for the addition of 58 runs.
Kervezee and Fell seemed to be in cruise control, having put on 159 in 31 overs together, until a breakthrough by Craig Miles dramatically shifted the balance of power. Kervezee fell under edging to wicketkeeper Roderick, but it should not have been a reason for his team to go into freefall.
Ross Whiteley's innings seemed to symptomise a sudden outbreak of uncertainty. Having blocked almost everything in making a single from 14 balls, he launched a six off Jack Taylor and then went for 12, well caught on the boundary edge by Benny Howell.
That was the first of Gidman's wickets and even then the damage would have been manageable if Fell had been able to bat through. Instead he went for the big shot and drove off-spinner Taylor straight to Cockbain at long-off.
Gloucestershire's tight bowling and keen fielding was too much for the lower order. The innings contained only 24 boundaries, all bar five of those coming when Fell and Kervezee seemed to have done all the hard work in correcting Worcestershire's sluggish start. The first Powerplay yielded only 26 runs in 10 overs for the loss of the openers, Daryl Mitchell playing on to David Payne and Tom Kohler-Cadmore running himself out.

Of a Monstrous Child: A Gaga Musical: Review
Lady Gaga-inspired musical at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre has excellent performances by Bruce Dow, Tyson James and Kimberly Persona
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Of a Monstrous Child: A Gaga Musical
Written and directed by Alistair Newton. Until May 26 at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre, 12 Alexander St. 416-975-8555.
You really ought to go see Alistair Newton's new show, Of a Monstrous Child: A Gaga Musical, which opened Thursday night at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre, but check your preconceptions and inhibitions at the door.
This is a provocative work, both intellectually and sexually, with as much mental honesty on display as there is full frontal nudity — and that's a goodly amount.
Newton is not out to give us a cheapo biography of Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, better known as Lady Gaga, nor is his intent to take a cheap, campy ride on a celebrity's notoriety.
Instead, he gives us a dramatic, visual and musical collage of a wide variety of artists and thinkers, all of which he hopes will take us to the essence of Her Gagaship.
It was a surprise that the show included "visitations" from thinkers like Marina Abramovic and Camille Paglia as well as rock stars such as Grace Jones and Elton John. But they're all here and make a lasting impression.
Newton's initial stroke of genius was to conceive that the show would be presented to us by Leigh Bowery, the flamboyant, plus-sized performance artist who ruled trendy London from the early 1980s until his death in 1994.
Bruce Dow is perfect as Lowry, oozing out of a photography booth for his first entrance and expressing ironic horror as he discovers he's dead, courtesy of Wikipedia.
The compulsively watchable Tyson James is vital to the journey as The Little Monster, a character who aspires to Gaga-ness, and Kimberly Persona gives us the appropriate flashes of talent, sex and bitchiness as the diva herself.
Structure is not Newton's strong point, however and the show does seem on occasion to be a plane in need of a flight plan, although it swoops and dives with breathtaking alacrity.
But you go on a trip like this for just those highs and lows. Anyone can take you from Toronto to Montreal in a straight line. Getting there by way of Polynesia is something else.
One scene will linger in the memory for a long time. Gavin Crawford has just done a witty turn as Quentin Crisp, but then he suddenly segues into that 1950s cabaret anthem "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men." His song alternates with a moving speech by Kyle Travis Young about the loneliness of being gay in a small town, while Persona channels Laurie Anderson in a poignant cello solo. Dow enters, take it all in and harmonizes in a heartbreaking counter-tenor.
Out of such a mash-up, the greatness of the show emerges.
Chy Ryan-Spain completes the cast with distinction, especially when he becomes Yoko Ono and the show's technical elements, while done on a shoestring budget, have the right tawdry flash.
And for sheer dramatic bravura, you won't find anything more bold than Dow's final monologue. An actual nude photo of Bowery is projected upstage and Dow appears in the identical pose, while he speaks movingly, yet wittily, of this particular artist's struggles.
Of a Monstrous Child: A Gaga Musical has all the signs of originality, talent and commitment that mark the best of indie theatre.
It also has the excess, sloppiness and occasional self-indulgence of the form as well, but you pay your money and you make your choice.

A further two Air Warfare Destroyer (AWD) blocks manufactured by BAE Systems in Williamstown have been shipped to Adelaide.
The final blocks make nine altogether since the first block was delivered in August 2011. With this shipment, BAE Systems has completed work on all AWD Ship 1 and Ship 2 blocks that they have been contracted to complete. Block 415 is a hull block and weighs 117 tonnes. Block 111 is a keel block weighing 112 tonnes.
BAE Systems Director Maritime Bill Saltzer said the company's AWD Project Team had again demonstrated their capability to deliver a quality product on schedule. Both blocks 415 and 111 were accepted by AWD lead shipbuilder ASC following inspections at the Williamstown shipyard prior to shipment to Adelaide.
"I'd like to congratulate everyone involved in the production of these blocks for the tremendous success they have achieved in both quality and productivity on this project. I would also like to thank our customer, ASC, for working with us in close co-operation throughout the process of planning, fabricating and inspection of the blocks.
Saltzer continued: "Our production performance has improved drastically since we began this project. This clearly demonstrates that investment in capability development can be challenging at first, but it pays significant dividends over time as long as you can continue to apply that capability on current and future projects."

I have been taking Paroxetine for the past year. Though due to some confusion when I moved I've been temperarily taken off of this medication. now I feel even more depressed than when I started the medication in the first place. Should I be worried?

It generally takes 6-9 months to stabilise following an episode of depression, so it's unlikely to be a recurrence of your original depression. I recently found out that it's possible to suffer a form of 'depression' together with intense anxiety (feeling jittery, like the nerves are jelly) due to WITHDRAWAL.
You didn't say how long you have been off the Paroxetine but the sooner you can start taking it again, the more likely you can get rid of these symptoms. If you want to come off it in future, you will need to wean off slowly.
Hope that helps

A glance at the "Water List" at exclusive London hotel Claridge's may give one a glimpse into the future for the water sector. The lofty prices being asked for exotic waters sourced from far-flung countries may represent something of an extreme, but Annette Farr believes it shows how consumer tastes in water are becoming more sophisticated, providing potential for increasing product innovation and differentiation.

Sorry Will
Wrote a post, pressed submit days ago but didn't seem to post.
We have been to Soller many times but never stayed. We normally stay on the east coast.
The old train trip is great, like a throwback to the 50s and a relaxing way to get around Mallorca as the track is raised above the fields and you get ver good views of the rural landscape.
We love Soller which is a middle market bustle small town with many good bars/restaurants. Even with the huge number of visitors it still has the feel of a Mallorquin town that is visited rather than a town for tourists. Port de Soller feels a little more like a town for tourists.
Personally I would opt for one of the small Finca style hotels just outside town. We have looked at some of the small boutique style town houses in the past but the town centre is just too busy for us.
Ps spotted you post about English Lakes.
We had a yacht on Windermere for years. The Punch Bowl / Drunken Duck have common ownership and are over marketed. They have high standards but I have never liked the flashy types that are attracted by the hype. My MIL lives down the road from The Pheasant, it is a legend and retains a huge amount of charm.I would choose it every time.
There is a lovely walk up the valley from Soller to Fornalutx.

Thank you belted_galloway. We greatly appreciate your comments on the subject of Soller. We are staying for a week with friends who have an apartment in Palma. Rather than stay in Palma and drive around each day, we thought we should all take 3 nights up in Soller.
As for The Lake District we came to the same conclusion about the so called Duck. We have decided to select Elm House at Pooley Bridge as a base for 3 nights.
We will head there from the Peak District where we have made the unusual choice of staying 2 nights at the Hilton Doubletree given its location as a base. 102 Quid for 2 nights in a Delux King Room was also a selling point, as we will get there late on the first day and leave very early to drive through the Dales on the third day enroute to Pooley Bridge.
We will walk Soller to Fornalutx. Thanks again.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Exclusive: NHL commissioner discusses lockout issues
Gary Bettman oversees the NHL in good times and bad. He makes forceful decisions and stands behind them, no matter public perception. As such he can be a lightning rod for criticism, especially in times like these.
For example, this recent assessment courtesy of Red Wings defenceman Ian White: "I gotta be honest, I personally think (Bettman's) an idiot. Since he's come in, I think he's done nothing but damage the game."
On the other hand, there are more player jobs paying more money than ever before, seven teams in Canada and a new U.S. national broadcast agreement. In many ways, the NHL has never had it so good. Except, of course, for the league's inability to play games every seven years or so.
Bettman cannot keep everyone happy. Ownership wants it one way, the players another. Bettman must try to find the balance that is best for the game. He's still searching.
Bettman is not a grip-and-grin boss such as John Ziegler, and he's certainly not of the Gil Stein puppet ilk. Bettman is a target. Especially as a commissioner who refuses to hide behind ownership but instead puts himself front and centre for all to praise or criticize as they see fit.
Bettman has a vision and he drives it. He's polarizing. One can agree or disagree with his approach, but there's no questioning his zeal.
The double-edged sword of Bettman's leadership is that while he has overseen unprecedented revenue growth for the league and record paydays for its players, he has also had to contend with labour strife.
During Bettman's reign, the NHL has seen its annual revenue grow to top the $3-billion mark, but for the second time in eight years, the league is in the midst of a lockout. After losing the entire 2004-05 season, the threat of another missed campaign is becoming very real.
Bettman has been under heavy fire from the league's players, with many questioning his leadership. But he is standing firm.
Bettman spoke with the Free Press for just over 30 minutes Sunday morning.
Here's the entire telephone interview.
FREE PRESS: At this moment, where do things stand and what is the gulf between the two sides preventing a deal?
GARY BETTMAN: There seems to be a fundamental disagreement on many of the core issues. We have proposed a 50-50 split of HRR (hockey-related revenue) which has not been agreed to. We have raised issues with respect to how the system works and the adjustments we think need to be made, and there doesn't seem to be agreement or even a willingness to agree on them.
FP: The players say, "We gave to get to 50-50. Why should we give any more? There's nothing in this deal for us." What do you say to that?
GB: Twofold. One, we want to make sure the system works well and continues to work well. There are certain trends and issues that have arisen that we believe need to be adjusted in order for us to have the competitive balance that we want and need to enable us to continue to grow the game. What's in this deal for the players? Give or take $14 billion over the next seven years.
FP: The league has 30 teams. Not all are stable and the league remains in flux. There are franchises that don't work. The players say revenue sharing should fix those problems. But meaningful revenue sharing historically comes from league-wide revenue such as national TV rights, and there's not enough in that pot right now to fix all the league's woes. It's hard to get markets like Toronto, or even Winnipeg for that matter, to subsidize teams like Phoenix or Miami that don't generate substantial gate revenue. Is this the crux of why there is a lockout?
GB: Not completely. It's not wholly inaccurate, but it's more inaccurate than not. The fact is, we have revenue-shared, we do revenue-share and we've offered to increase revenue sharing by more than a third. Our revenue sharing as a percentage of HRR is at least comparable, if not more, than either baseball or basketball. This notion that we're not prepared to revenue-share in a meaningful way is not true. Perhaps more importantly, revenue sharing alone does not fix what we believe needs to be corrected. We believe all 30 franchises are viable and can be successful. We think all 30 franchises are important. Each franchise counts for lots of player jobs and other jobs and is important to its community. Most important, this notion that clubs are not willing to help other clubs is simply not true. We are simply at a percentage under our old deal where our player costs, for a whole host of reasons, are just too high. If you look at the experience in the two other sports where revenue is shared with the players, namely football and basketball, the players in those sports acknowledged exactly what we've been saying.
FP: Revenue is growing, but there's an imbalance from franchise to franchise. If the weaker franchises can't compete from a revenue standpoint, why not contract?
GB: We believe all of our franchises are important and can be viable and can be successful. And frankly, if we're going to continue to grow the game and grow what you refer to as national revenues, you need to have a truly national footprint, not just in Canada but in the United States.
FP: When are you going to cancel the season?
GB: That's not something we're focused on. We very much want to make a deal. On Oct. 16th we made an offer to save an 82-game season which the union summarily rejected. But we're going to stay at this because nobody wants to be in that position. So we're not focusing on that sort of deadline right now.
FP: If you have to cancel the season, what would you do to the system?
GB: Any answer I give you to that question would be terribly misportrayed and misconstrued.
FP: There was a report out of Philadelphia on Saturday that says you are losing the support of the owners.
GB: It was a fabrication. Ed Snider is the one who told me about the article when he found out about it and he was terribly upset. He's in Europe and it was his idea to put out a statement. Anyone who doubts the resolve of ownership is either uninformed or (being) intentionally misleading.
FP: Was the aggressive nature of your first offer to the players a mistake?
GB: I think the view some have of our first offer is fairly naive as it relates to collective bargaining. A sophisticated negotiator would have looked at it and said, 'Obviously they want a 50-50 split.' If we're at 57 and they propose 43, they must be telegraphing where they want to end. If your intention was to use it in an inflammatory way, you could do that. If your intention was to make a deal, you could pretty much chart out what the course should be.
FP: Don Fehr is a union leader. A negotiation is his raison d'�tre. It's been suggested a protracted lockout keeps him in the spotlight and he enjoys that. Do you see it that way?
GB: I will not comment on the union leadership or union tactics. I'll leave it to others.
FP: Do you enjoy this? What's happening right now?
GB: No. It's horrific for the simple reason that we as a business are in business to put on our game and engage with our fans and to grow our game. This entire process is absolutely inconsistent with that. Having said that, any sports league needs a system that works and makes the game and the business of the game healthy.
FP: What damage has been done to the game?
GB: We won't know that until it's over. Obviously what we're going through is damaging. We can estimate the dollars and cents of what's been cancelled and what we're hearing from business partners and what it's doing to their businesses. But we won't know the long-term and short-term effects until this is over. But it's not good.
FP: You were quoted as saying the business bounced back after the last lockout because NHL fans were the best in the world. But this is the second lockout in under a decade. What will you do for your fans and your sponsors when you do get back on the ice?
GB: We're going to have to make it right. That's something that is important and vital and will have to be judged over time. The manner in which we do it and the way it ultimately plays out isn't something I can comfortably discuss until this is over.
FP: Because you ultimately believe you have the best fans in the world and they'll be back no matter what, is that a crutch that allows you to have frequent work stoppages?
GB: It has nothing to do with that. It has everything to do with we have to have the right deal going forward. In the absence of an agreement, you have to have a work stoppage. The union has shown an unwillingness to negotiate. So certainly, if they're not negotiating in a meaningful way now, what would they be doing if we were playing under the old system? The entire strategy appeared to be an attempt to maintain what the union had under the expired CBA, which is something they're not entitled to.
FP: Winnipeg isn't an artificial market. They pay NHL prices for NHL hockey. But they had unexpectedly robust revenue last year, they paid bottom third of the league in salary and they made money. But had they spent to the cap, they would have lost money. Under the old agreement, being competitive was going to be a challenge for Winnipeg. Can you address that?
GB: We believe the fundamentals of the system we created eight years ago are sound and have given us great competitive balance. But the system needs to be adjusted. It needs to take into account the realities of what's taken place over the past seven seasons. And I mean that on a macro-economic basis. We're committed to having a system that works for our clubs and our league and ultimately our players and our fans.
FP: Last week stories broke to the effect that you told Don Fehr it was time to take a two-week break from negotiations. Now you're set to talk on Monday night. What happened to change things?
GB: What happened is that conversation was clearly misportrayed and mischaracterized. Don called me on Tuesday to have a conversation. It wasn't a negotiation. It was nothing more than a simple conversation. In the course of that conversation he said he didn't know what to do or how to proceed. I said maybe we should take a little downtime, a couple of weeks, especially since we had just five sessions in six days and nothing was produced. In light of that fact he didn't know how to proceed, I said that as a suggestion. He gave it a long pause and then said, 'I don't think so.' I said OK. So this notion that we proposed a moratorium is nothing more than union rhetoric. We were always willing to go back to the table. The lines of communication are open. They know they have our best offer, which is a 50-50 sharing and the other issues that we've proposed to them. They proposed 17 issues last week and we agreed to 13 of them. We know where the negotiations led to, they know they have our best offer. We've always said if they have something to discuss, we're always available to meet.
FP: Is there room for give and take on the contracting rights issues?
GB: I'm not going to get into the specifics of negotiations other than to say there are contracting issues that need to be addressed and we've said we would be happy to discuss how those issues are addressed.
FP: How much longer do you want to be commissioner of the NHL?
GB: That's not something I focus on. I generally love my job on a day to day basis and I love the game. Nobody likes going through a situation like we're going through. It's not what we do and not what we want to do. We exist as a league and as a game to be playing.
FP: Are you worried you might lose another season?
GB: The thought of that is something I don't even want to consider because we obviously don't want to be in that situation. But we have to have the right agreement and the system has to work well. Otherwise, the long-term consequences of not having the right agreement, are more difficult to deal with than short term consequences.
FP: A player called you an idiot the other day. Do you take these bullets gladly because you work for the owners and that's just part of the job? How do you feel about the players?
GB: I work for the owners but I work for the game. What I do transcends what I do for the owners. I do work for the game and I try to do the best I can for the game. You'll find in the course of labour disputes, there's always a lot of rhetoric. Most of it is just noise. Most of it is misinformed. There's propaganda. It's just a fact of life that you live with. By the way, I love the players. Nobody should think for a moment that I don't. If I didn't I wouldn't do this job. I couldn't do this job. I believe in the players. I don't believe in what's going on right now. It's part of the business of the game. The least attractive part of the game.
FP: Do you understand where the players are coming from?
GB: The fact of the matter is everybody ultimately does what is best and what they think is right. Everybody has to make their own judgments. It's very easy to critique what the union is doing or what we're doing. I assure myself on a daily basis that whatever the union is doing they think (it) is the right thing. I hope the fans can respect that what we're doing, we believe, is ultimately the best thing for the game long term.

Local artist Paul Hassfurder will be coming to the library to give a lecture about the life of local artist and legend Harlan Hubbard and his wife Anna. Harlan Hubbard, as well as being a prolific artist, is probably best known for his "Thoreauesque" lifestyle where he and his wife spent seven years drifting down the Ohio River on their homemade shanty boat. Through his use of images and his personal relationship with the Hubbards Paul Hassfurder will elaborate on the Hubbard's and how important their journey, and their lives are to the Ohio River Valley.
Larry Elliott will portray Abraham Lincoln. During his presentation at the NA-FC Public Library, Elliott's portrayal of Abraham Lincoln will include a story about a trip he took down the Ohio River on a steamboat, to tie in with steamboat the Belle of Louisville's 100th birthday celebration October 14-19, 2014. This program is free and open to the public.
Abraham Lincoln was born in Hodgenville, KY, and presenter Larry Elliott's family is from there as well. In 2003 he entered a Lincoln look-a-like contest in Hodgenville and began reading about this great man. After an extensive study of his life, Elliott decided to purchase a complete period-correct Abraham Lincoln costume and began portraying him. In 2005, he learned, remarkably, that his great, great, great, grandmother (Mary LaRue Enlow) was the midwife who helped deliver Abraham Lincoln. Elliott portrays Mr. Lincoln in the first person, from his humble roots in Kentucky, to growing up in Indiana, to becoming a self-taught lawyer in Illinois, to becoming our sixteenth President who preserved the Union and freed the slaves, to his untimely death at Ford's Theatre. Larry Elliott and his wife Mary (who often portrays Mary Todd Lincoln to Larry's Abraham Lincoln) live in Louisville, KY. They are both members of the Association of Lincoln Presenters.

Biography/Historical Note:
The fact that Morrison's legacy lives on even today is testament to not only the great popularity he witnessed during his lifetime, but the fact that he was also exceptionally talented. Of course, like many memorable New Albanians, the painter wasn't born a Hoosier. In 1820, Morrison entered this world as a Baltimorean. Several sources state that here he received his first formal training in the arts; with some believing he studied under the famed Maryland artists Rembrandt and Raphael Peale.
As was the custom of the time, a young Morrison packed up his brushes and easel and made his way out west to Connersville. One year later in 1840, the 20-year-old had for reasons unknown migrated to New Albany. Eventually a pretty local girl by the name of Lydia Maynard would catch his eye and his heart. Living their lives overlooking the Ohio on a robust property in Silver Hills, the couple had two children, a boy and a girl. Both went on to become artists themselves.
Yet, unlike his children, back when a young Morrison arrived in New Albany, no family support existed for him. Undeterred from his aspiration, he opened a studio and began to promote his business.
"He announced his arrival with a small advertisement in the New Albany Gazette and invited the public to examine specimens of his work at his studio on Main Street near Bank," said a transcript from a 1970's radio program about Morrison from The Historical Society and posted on the New Albany-Floyd County Public Library's website. "The public liked what they saw, for commissions began coming in and many of the portraits he painted are still prize possessions of New Albany families."
For more than 50 years, the city's most famous artist did what he did best — he painted. Many prominent citizens of the age had their portraits done by Morrison. Owning the paintings back then represented more than just a fine appreciation for the arts. Possessing a framed piece meant you also had the affluence to afford to commission one. Even now, the paintings allow today's viewers an insight into what well-off Victorians found important.
"Morrison had a knack of instilling his subjects with appearances of tranquility, making the finished product of each portrait appear inviting to viewers," said David Condra in a transcription of a 2012 talk he gave entitled "George Morrison: New Albany's 19th Century Portrait and Landscape Artist." "The face is the focal point of each portrait, with hair and clothing commanding attention as well. Hair, clothing, jewelry painted in a subject's portrait created a visual biography of that person, such as socio-economic status and cultural values."
Perhaps his most famous painting was that of New Albany resident and Indiana's 11th governor, Ashabel P. Willard, which still hangs in the Statehouse. To better understand Morrison's style without traveling to Indianapolis, check out the NAFC Library. His works dot the hallways near the Indiana room. Four pieces damaged by vandals also remain in storage.
In addition to portraits, the local library has preserved some of Morrison's landscape paintings. His view from Silver Hills inspired him to create a fantastic aerial view of New Albany, complete with riverboats sailing — and even one sinking — down the Ohio. Due to the prevalent river trade with the South, it's been rumored that his paintings have been found as far away as New Orleans. For a time, the artist spent winters in the bayou city. But eventually, times would change for both the city and its famous inhabitant.
"Following the Civil War, New Albany's economic boom ceased because of the decline in trade with the South," said Estill Curtis Pennington in the book "Lessons in Likeness Portrait Painters in Kentucky and the Ohio River Valley 1802-1920." "While Morrison's portrait commissions dwindled in the face of competition from photography, he continued to be an active landscape and still-life painter whose work was much in demand."
Painting well into his final years, sometimes with the use of a photograph to guide his work, Morrison died in December 1893 and was interred on his Silver Hills estate. Later, his body would be moved to Fairview Cemetery.
While always painting for the wealthy citizens of New Albany and gaining commercial success, the man whose obituary chronicled him as quiet and reserved in his manners would never become affluent himself. But money couldn't have bought the artist his enduring legacy or the lingering historical significance of his paintings, something a local newspaper covering one of his landscape paintings hinted out more than 150 years ago.
"Twenty years hence this picture will be invaluable — when generations yet to be born will gaze with astonishment at the rapid growth of a city destined to become the great commercial emporium of the West, which is now but in her infancy," said a reporter from a March 1853 edition of the New Albany Daily Ledger. "We hope all will go and see it."
