At this point in 1964, Canadian actor Lorne Greene was racing up the Billboard charts to with "Ringo":
Watching Lorne Greene play anyone but Ben Cartwright is just odd. Especially on a show like the love boat.
American Woman - Guess Who - 1970. Lorne Greene was in '64 with Ringo Percy Faith - Theme from A Summer Place was in '60

Listening to Radioio 60's on the internet.60's alive and well.The music sounds better than ever.Tired of the same sounding song over and over and over again,check it out.This was a time when music covered the whole spectrum of so many great artists,some still recording and touring. You had Tehe Temptations, Beatles ,Sinatra,The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown,Dean Martin,Supremes,Sgt.Barry Sadler,Aretha,Archie Bell Young Rascals,Bobbie Gentry,Lorne Greene,Elvis,Senator Bobby,just to name a few, and that is just a few.Al sharing spots on the top 40.Creativity was alive and exploding.Great Era,great music and great memories.
Did you know...both actor Lorne Greene and author, entrepreneur and public speaker Seth Godin both spent time at Arowhon?
Short of a Lorne Greene level earthquake, yeah.

I saw some of original Battlestar Galactica, the 1 w/ Lorne Greene, but don't remember much. Never saw Ron's version. Worth it?
ConnectiCon is pleased to announce two more Guests of Honor, Alan Oppenheimer and Noah Hathaway, will be at ConnectiCon 2014! Dozens more are on the way! Alan Oppenheimer is recognized as the voice of many characters, often for Filmation in the 1970s and 1980s, such as Mighty Mouse, Ming the Merciless on Flash Gordon, the Overlord on BlackStar, and Skeletor, Man-At-Arms and Mer-Man from Filmation's 1980s cartoon He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Other notable voice roles include Thundarr the Barbarian, Vanity on The Smurfs, Rhinokey and Crock from The Wuzzles and Falkor, Gmork, Rockbiter, and the Narrator from 1984's The NeverEnding Story. In the early 1990s, Oppenheimer was the voice of Merlin in The Legend of Prince Valiant. He also performed various supporting roles in various incarnations of Scooby- Doo. He took over the voice of Roger Smith's butler Norman Burg in the second season of The Big O. Oppenheimer also worked on The Transformers, most notably as two contrasting characters, the pacifis ...
*** Hathaway had already been partying with Lorne Greene &. Dirk Benedict so not sure Oracle breast would phase him at all.
Lorne Greene was like the Grandad of the fleet, was a true leader of the fleet
That's why I prefer new-Adama; Lorne Greene's version always came across as infallible thus rather dull in comparison.
Does anyone know why Lorne Greene is telling us all about these Apple products?!
Right. Not the New Coke Battlestar Galactica that the kids like, but the OG one with Lorne Greene.

Bonanza Casting Lorne Greene Ben David Dortort originally considered Lee J. Cobb to portray Ben Cartwright in early 1959. However, the reply from Cobb's agent was that he "didn't do television" and a dead end. Ironically, Cobb had a change of mind and signed on to portray a wealthy rancher in the NBC TV-series based on Owen Wister's "The Virginian" in 1962, which ran for almost a decade on NBC. Some three days after first seeing him, David Dortort met Lorne Greene at a party, and he was mildly impressed with him, perhaps hiring him for the role of Ben Cartwright. Dortort's wife, Rose, insisted Lorne was indeed Ben Cartwright, and David finally agreed and went to see him when he was shooting an episode of "Wagon Train". He was impressed with how Lorne held his own with Ward Bond (who he had considered to play Ben, and how he also liked to bully the other actors on the set), and that was what finally decided him to cast Lorne Greene as Ben Cartwright. Dortort recalled of Lorne, "Lorne not only dominat ...

Watching the 1969-71 seasons of "Bonanza" on Encore Westerns. Any Virginian fans notice the "Bonanza" producers gave Candy the same costume as the Virginian? :) As for the episodes, there are a few original storylines that stand out and many average episodes with stock characters and situations. One of the more ludicrous episodes was the engagement of aging Ben Cartwright (Lorne Greene) and young Mariette Hartley's character. Watching Greene kiss Hartley was cringe worthy. What were the writer's thinking ?
Tribeca Film Festival preview: LI Williams and Bryan Cranston will be there. And Eva Longoria. And Michael Douglas. And Robin Roberts, Aaron Sorkin, Morgan Spurlock and Ron Howard. And Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield, probably in neutral corners. And thousands and thousands of New York-area moviegoers, who are seldom neutral about anything. There will certainly be some stargazing once the 13th edition of the Tribeca Film Festival opens Wednesday night, promising much discussion about individual movies, the future of cinema and life as we know it. But while hot and cold running celebrities have always been among Tribeca's accessories (the stars mentioned above are involved in various "Tribeca Talks"), it's also a festival for civilians: Unlike Cannes or Sundance, it isn't a festival primarily for industry or press, but for people who arrive by subway, get excited about new movies, actually buy tickets, wait on lines, often enough in a cold spring rain.

Ever been to a Hollywood movie premiere? I did. At The Chinese Theater in 1974 "EARTHQUAKE" in SENSOROUND! It was cool. There were speakers under the seats and when a "tremblor" (or the spectacular LONG "big shock") hit, you could feel it, it was loud even the big chandeliers inside swayed a bit! Women were screaming in the theater! It was great. The first ensemble disaster movie and we saw the cast there! Charlton Heston, Ava Gardner, George Kennedy, Lorne Greene, Geneviève Bujold, Richard Roundtree, Victoria Principal, Walter Matthau. It won 2 oscars for(of course) Best Sound Mixing & a Special Achievement for Special Effects. Music by JOHN WILLIAMS got a nomination.

Had there actually been a live action version of Thunderbirds in the 1960's, a fine cast would have been Mike Connors (as Scott), Ray Danton (Virgil), Fabian (Alan), Lorne Greene (Jeff), Dorothy Provine (Lady Penelope), Richard Jaeckel (sp? as Gordon), Nick Adams (John), Wende Wagner (Tin-Tin), Torin Thatcher (Hood), James Hong (in old-age make-up to play Kyrano), and Terry Thomas as Parker. Provine and Thomas play what are essentially Lady Penelope and Parker (complete with gadget-laden Rolls Royce) in KISS THE GIRLS AND MAKE THEM DIE, which also stars Mike Connors. That's what got me to thinking about it!

Rats, lost at hockey and we have to keep Bieber. We did get Lorne Greene though so things almost even out.
Let's call this "Obscure Friday." It's 2:45 am, and I'm burning the midnight oil (that's an expression older than Ben Cartwright). But, hey, look what I found! Bonanza was one of the greatest TV shows ever, and a sturdy example of family values. Many of my family & friends grew up with Little Joe, as we all sat around the TV on Sunday nights. Well, the famous family's patriarch, Ben Cartwright, probably could have run for president, if actor Lorne Greene hadn't been Canadian. I never knew this song existed, but now we all do.
The original Battlestar Galactica was terrible. There I said it. All you Lorne Greene fans can go to hello if u don't like it.

Once when I was little and my cousin took me to Catskill Game Farm and the baby elephant tried to eat me.and then again when I was about 12 and my Aunt took me to a county fair. They tried to get me to pet it so I's stop being afraid and it swung it's trunk and sent my flying! (It was trying to kill me I tell you!) 3- I wanted to grow up to be an airline stewardess. After HS I tried to join the Air Force.

Me with Lorne Greene at Weir Cook Airport, Indianapolis, in 1960 or 61.
They said my speed was next to none But my lightning draw had just begun When I heard a blast that stung my wrist The gun went flying from my fist And I was looking down the bore Of the deadly .44 of Ringo They say that was the only time That anyone had seen him smile He slowly lowered his gun and then He said to me "We're even, friend" And so at last I understood That there was still a spark of good in Ringo From "RINGO" - LORNE GREENE

I'd never heard of him, but from the excitement in the editor's voice, I knew it must be someone famous. And rather than expose my ignorance, I said, "Great!" "He'll meet you on the Bonanza set." He gave me a TV studio address. We didn't yet own a TV, but I'd read about the new quiz shows offering big prizes. Bonanza, I decided, must be one of those. I'd interview Mr. Greene about competitiveness! I spent two hours writing out a long list of questions. The next day I stood in the wings of the sound stage, staring at a log cabin, a covered wagon, a backdrop of Ponderosa pines...I crumpled my sheet of questions.

Virginia City Jerky Company and Smoke House BBQ Had to add this place...Anyone remember the TV show Bonanza with Lorne Greene, Michael Landon, Dan Blocker and Parnell Roberts? The town they rode to most often was Virginia City and it is in fact a real place. The Comstock Lode made one man rich and Silver mine shafts are all over the town, some odd 70 miles of them to this day. I was up there today, the sidewalks are wooden, there are gun fights in the streets, you will even find this dude roaming about with his donkey...A common phrase as you pass him smiling is "I know the reason you're smiling is cause yer look'in at my *** Virginia City Jerky and Smoke house is the real deal, an old west smoke house where all is made fresh from scratch and any meal in there can be had for under $8.50. My sort of place! LOL When you visit Reno, plan a day to see Virginia City.
Lorne Greene - The saga of the ponderosa from 1964
When Stanwyck's film career declined in 1957, she moved to television. Her 1961–1962 series The Barbara Stanwyck Show was not a ratings success but earned her an Emmy Award.[17] The 1965–1969 Western series The Big Valley on ABC made her one of the most popular actresses on television, winning her another Emmy.[17] She was billed as "Miss Barbara Stanwyck," and her role as frontier family matron Victoria Barkley was likened to that of Ben Cartwright, played by Lorne Greene in the series Bonanza. Stanwyck's costars included Richard Long as Jarrod Thomas Barkley, (who had been in the film All I Desire (1953) with Stanwyck), Peter Breck as the hot-headed Nick Barkley, Linda Evans as Audra Barkley, and Lee Majors as Heath Barkley, the son fathered out of wedlock by the Stanwyck character's husband with another woman. As one of her many roles, she also appeared in the television series, the The Untouchables with Robert Stack. Years later, Stanwyck earned her third Emmy for The Thorn Birds.[17] In 1985, she ...
Kenny Pulley When I was living in Petoskey, Mich. , we came down one year for the Blossom Parade when Lorne Greene and Michael Landon were in the parade . how many of you remember that year ?
Would be perfect if it had Lorne Greene as Adama.
The Rifleman was so cool. Another tough talking New Yorker cleaning up the West. Why are there no single dad tv shows any more? Or are there? I really don't know what's on tv now. The 60's had a lot of single dad with kids, no mom, tv shows. Off the top of my head: The Andy Griffith Show, Bonanza, My Three Sons, The Rifleman, The Courtship of Eddie's Father, Family Affair, The Beverly Hillbillies. Maybe those of us growing up in the 60's and 70's had a warped perspective; I don't know about you, but I learned that women just ruin the family dynamic. I'm going to have my coffee now, so I can talk in my morning Lorne Greene voice. Best voice ever, sorry James Earl Jones, and Michael Butscher.
Just ♥'d this on Sixteen Tons by Lorne Greene.
January 16, 1973…After 14 seasons, NBC-TV aired the 440th and final episode of the western series "Bonanza," starring Lorne Greene, Michael Landon, Dan Blocker and (for its first six years) Pernell Roberts. It ranks as the second-longest-running western series in television history, behind only "Gunsmoke."

With the passing of The Professor and Reuben Kincaid today, you have to go back to 1987 when such a talented duo died on the same day. We lost Lorne Greene and Peter Tosh on the same day that year. Richard Dawson, Lee Majors, and Lyle Waggoner, please stay strong. We need you now, more than ever.
Nothing could be finer than eating at this diner in the morning. BTW Lorne Greene ate here.

I have been looking for Lorne Greene, Marty Robbins, Johnny Horton, that kind of stuff, ballads mostly.
There was a Chinese restaurant very close to El Camino Market. It was across the street, probably next to the Dairy Queen. Can't remember the name, but back in the '70's, my friend worked there. One night she was working the register and a man bearing a very strong resemblance to Jackie Gleason walked in and ordered takeout. As she wrote the order down, she asked for his last name and first initial. He looked at her with an odd expression and said, "Gleason, J." Anyone remember the name of the restaurant? Or run smack dab into celebrities? My husband met Lorne Greene at the Cow Palace and he ran into Dan Blocker quite by accident on Mackinac Island at the Grand Hotel. Obviously, a long time ago since both have been gone for a long time now. So. When YOU were young, lo these many decades ago, did you meet anyone? And no fair answering that you purposely set out to get an autograph. It has to be accidental.
Indulging my weakness for 70's disaster movies with Earthquake Blu Ray. It has not worn well. Ava Gardner as Lorne Greene's daughter? Naa.

Was in a western movie with Lorne Greene from Bonanza . did TV commercials and Magazine adds. I never put a lot of time on a career because I did not want to travel and be gone from my two small children at that time. I was raised in an orphanage so family is what is most important to me. AND I do love my face book friends. So Flo thank you for your interest my friend.

Glad you liked it! I also hope you liked Mrs.B's re-mix version, and the other Lorne Greene songs I gave links to.
I don't care what any youngster says, Lorne Greene was, um, sexy.
Listening to Lorne Greene sing the Bonanza theme is totally worth it
Lorne Greene sang this song while he was on BONANZA in 1964
The upside of today's library visit: original recipe Battlestar Galactica on DVD!!! And I worked up the gall to watch it! I started watching as soon as I got home & immediately burst into tears at seeing Lorne Greene as Adama. Watching it, I realized my grandparents really loved me-- I used to go to their house to watch it because my parents were watching All in the Family or something. They were totally not sci-fi geeks at all & I'm really wondering if that was maybe their drinking night... Back to BG!
A sleep deprived state leads to serious illness and even death. There are many real life examples to back up this statement. One such example is that of Lorne Greene who played Ben Cartwright in the television series :Bonanza." He had been trying to fulfill a heavy schedule of commitments which gave him little opportunity for the rest his exhausted body needed. He caught a simple cold which quickly developed into pneumonia that required immediate hospitalization. His body's already weakened immune system, due to sleep deprivation, was not able to fight this disease - HE DIED UNEXPECTEDLY. Green, who was in the best of health before this, was in his late sixties. No matter how carefully people may eat or how many vitamin - mineral or herbal supplements they may take or how frequently they may exercise, the bottom line is that without sufficient sleep the body's front-line defenses are going to suffer terribly. Simply put: a consistent program of adequate rest - on a DAILY BASIS IS REQUIRED to keep the immu ...
First ever pop song I remember hearing on the radio was 'Ringo' by Lorne Greene, really miss Bonanza and the era of innocence it represented.
Canadian actor Lorne Greene was cast as Commander Adama in the 1978 "Battlestar Galactica". Green spent 14 years (1959–1973) on the western TV series "Bonanza". After "Bonanza", however, he found work hard to get. He was in a failed cop show, and was forced to narrate a syndicated wildlife show to get work. He made two notable appearances, though: One in the Irwin Allen film "Earthquake", and the other in the TV mini-series "Roots". Glen A. Larson, creator of "Battlestar Galactica", cast Greene as Adama solely on the basis of Greene's continuing popularity as Ben Cartwright in "Bonanza". Larson wanted a respected father-figure with gravitas to be the leader of the rag-tag fleet, and that was Greene. Greene allegedly thought the show was inane and the role beneath him, and was glad that his scenes were limited. But he did not voice his opinion until many years later.
Father and Daughter, Lorne Greene and Ava Gardner, Earthquake. Although it is a bit strange that dad was only a few years older.
The short-lived NBC musical variety series, "The Sammy Davis Jr. Show" began on this date in 1966. Among the guests that night were Richard Chamberlain, Lorne Greene and Don Adams. But the biggest draw of the premiere was special guests Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. The trio performed "What do the Simple Folk Do?" The series, which aired Fridays at 8:30 p.m., was history by April 22nd. L.A. Times photo of Davis, dated Dec. 14, 1979, was shot by Larry Armstrong.
Lorne Greene read the news for CBC radio long before he found fame on TV's Bonanza.
We got a right to wear giant hats Bonanza! I don't care what *** eats, a whole lotta treats, so long as He don't eat me! Little Joe's gonna move out and have some ugly kids, Bonanza!

~ Musical Historical Happenings On This Day ~ December 5th: On this Day 1791 - Composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died in Vienna, Austria, at the age of 35. 1956: The Alan Freed movie Rock! Rock!

My number is 8. 1. Aside from the first month after I was born (when we lived on Grantosa Avenue), I lived in the same house on Santa Rosa Boulevard for the first 19 years of my life. 2. I almost drown when I was about 5. We had an indoor pool, I was tip toeing around the perimeter singing a song when I slipped and fell in the deep end. I sunk like a stone. My brother, 6 years older than me and at the opposite end of the pool practicing with his pitchback, jumped in and saved me. 3. Probably as a result, I am afraid of drowning. I had a recurring nightmare when I was a teenager, of falling thru ice and being unable to find the hole I fell thru. 4. If I have a rough fingernail, I will obsess and rub it in anything and anything until I can smooth it. 5. I absolutely love old country music; Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, the Gatlin Brothers, the Statler Brothers, Roger Miller. 6. When I was a little girl I wanted to marry Lorne Greene. My mother told me he would be dead by the time I was old enough to ...

Fox (comedic actor), Margaret Atwood (novelist), Richard Dreyfus (no intro needed), Mordecai Richler (author of the novel on which Richard Dreyfus's first or second movie is based, THE APPRENTICESHIP OF DUDDY KRAVITZ) and -- That's the list for now.
Nostalgia for sale: Son of 'Bonanza' star Lorne Greene auctions off large collection in Reno 'When Sky Richarde, personal assistant of Chuck Greene, son of the late television star Lorne Greene, called Anchor Auctions and Appraisal with a collection of Lorne's memorabilia and personal items for sale, owner and auctioneer Jeff Pilliod said he had every reason to be excited. "When you have a name to match with (the auction), it adds a lot more entry to it," Pilliod said. "And 'Bonanza' was very, very popular." "Bonanza" was a hit western series that aired on television from 1959 to 1973 and starred Lorne Greene as Ben Cartwright, the patriarch figure of the fictional TV family.

Used some Father's Day money to buy a DVD of the old old Battlestar Galactica TV show...the one with Lorne Greene. It's not as bad and campy as I thought. The dialog is a bit clunky, but it's not that badly written.
So, who was the best television father of all time? In my opinion it was Lorne Greene as Ben Cartwright, patriarch of the Ponderosa.
And ben played by lorne greene was the one of two people who stayed on the show throughout its entirety.

My neighbor is tall, probably 6' 4". I'm only six feet, but I have long legs (and very skinny) and a short torso, so this bike seems to fit me. I would say after making the adjustments that the seat is much lower than it would be for my neighbor, but by lowering the seat on this bike it leaves the handle bar position in a relatively higher position than I would find on a shorter bike such as my Wellington 3.0 (59c). In the picture I posted you can see the seat in the position that I found it, it is two inches lower now. I would never dreamed that I would like the fit I have with this bike, but it works just fine.
I'll admit, I'm a bit of a "gear junky" so I've changed quite a few things on the bike. The latest is the Romin EVO pro saddle, CG R seat post and some 6800 brakes. I'll have some 6800 pedals coming here soon that should wrap me up for this coming spring/summer season.

Here's my entry into road cycling. Took possession of this raleigh r600 over the weekend, 1995 model. Very clean, apparently rarely used, and only cost $100. Just needs new tires, and I was surprised that I really didn't need to do anything to adjust the fit. Looking forward to better weather to take this out
My daily driver, my GMC Denali. 22.5" frame bought it for $40. After adjusting the derailleurs & re-installing the front tube (it had a bubble in the front tire from the tube being pinched) i was all set. Now after 2 months & 600 miles the bottom bracket is starting to wear out.

Mai Village gets "Beef Backer" award
Grilled, marinated and broiled are but three ways your dinner will come prepared should you order Mai Village's Bò 7 Món, or "seven courses of beef." This kind of commitment to a single ingredient does not go unnoticed, which is why the St. Paul Vietnamese restaurant has the won the attention and admiration of the Minnesota Beef Council. The organization has bestowed the restaurant, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, with its don't-mess-with-me sounding "Beef Backer Award."
Eating mass quantities of beef among many courses apparently isn't unusual in Vietnam. According to the restaurant:
Its origin unknown, Bò 7 Món has been a favorite traditional Vietnamese food for centuries. It is believed to have its roots In the Mekong Delta, but is popular in many regions of Vietnam. Weary travelers would sit at an open-air roadside cafe to enjoy this meal, and to gaze upon a village decorated by orchids, and Beautiful Mai flowers.
Curiouser and curiouser? Here's the details on the meal, which costs just $18.95 per person:
Bò 7 Món - Seven Courses of Beef
1.GÒI BÓ Mai Village special beef salad
2. BÓ NHÚNG DẤM Beef fondu with a special vinegar sauce, slice of tenderloin cooked at your table
3. CHÁ ĐÙM Delicious meat ball mixed with mushrooms, nuts and various traditional Vietnamese spice sauces. Served with Vietnamese shrimp chips.
4. BÓ NƯỚNG MỞ CHÀI Lean ground beef mixed with spices and broiled over charcoal to perfection
5. BÓ NƯỚNG LÁ NHO Grilled beef wrapped in grape leaves
6. BÓ NƯỚNG XÁ Slices of tenderloin marinated with our special spices and onion grilled on charcoal to perfection
7. CHÁO BÓ Special beef rice soup. A rich and flavorful rice soup with beef and green onion
We're sort of dying to know who else was in the running for the award. Manny's bludgeon, surely. What other local restaurants qualify as "beef backers?"

Cage = 100: Tudor and the Performance Practice of Concert for Piano and Orchestra
Many of John Cage's scores seem to allow performers a degree of freedom that often leads to interpretations that, by the composer's own admission, do not reflect the spirit of the work. This is a problem of both attitude and notation. If we are to continue or reconstruct the tradition, we must look to the one performer in particular who defined and was defined by the performance practice of Cage's music – the pianist, composer, and electronic musician David Tudor.

Sink or Float?
Best done during a younger child's bath, this can also be a fun activity for older kids who can agree not to get water everywhere!
- Assemble a variety of items that will NOT get ruined in water. Suggestions include small plastic toys that don't take batteries, sports equipment, kitchen utensils, sponges, straws, loose change, and bath toys.
- Fill the bathtub with enough water to cover the largest items. (Note: Children should be carefully supervised around water deeper than an inch or two.) Predict whether each item will sink or float before placing it into the water. Points can be given for each correct answer.
- Whoever has the most points at the end of the game – wins!

Thanks Huseng, excellent resource.
If you believe certain words, you believe their hidden arguments. When you believe something is right or wrong, true of false, you believe the assumptions in the words which express the arguments. Such assumptions are often full of holes, but remain most precious to the convinced.

Red Stag's monthly Meet the Farmer dinner features Peterson Limousin Farms tonight
There you are, sitting at your desk, wondering what to do for dinner tonight. Your cabinet is bare, takeout sounds boring, and the autumnal chill has you craving something substantial. Trust us, we get it. Luckily for you, so does the Red Stag Supper Club. Once a month it features a Meet the Farmer dinner, with a special menu developed around the offerings of a local farm and a chance for diners to meet the people who grew their dinner. Here's the lowdown on tonight's Red Stag's menu, designed around Peterson Limousin Farm's delicious, natural beef.
Peterson Limousin Farm, in Osceola, Wisconsin, specializes in natural beef produced from "naturally superior" Limousin cattle. Items on tonight's special menu (offered in addition to the regular menu) include beef pirogi with wild mushroom sauce and a grilled top sirloin wrapped with house-cured pancetta, broccoli, and turnip puree. The menu is prix fixe at $38 for the four courses. A matched wine flight is available for an additional $16. Diners at the same table are free to choose either the prix fixe menu or items on the regular dinner menu.
Dinner is served from 5 to 10 p.m., and the farmer will be in house from 6:30 to 8:30, talking to guests about his farm and his fantastic cows.
If you love the idea of a meal with food from local farms, but can't make it to the Red Stag tonight, fear not. On October 11, the restaurant will host a fundraiser for the Emergency Food Shelf Network. The event will include a farm-fresh menu featuring several of the local farms with whom they partner, with beer or wine pairings included, for $75. Since Red Stag will be working with the freshest products available, the menu will begin to take shape closer to the event. More information is available at the Red Stag website here.

Restored NY lighthouse features surprise Rodin
CROWN POINT, N.Y. More than 10,000 campgrounds dot the American landscape. But only at the state-run campground in this remote Lake Champlain town can you find a Rodin sculpture on public display just steps away from campers pitching tents and grilling burgers.
A bronze plaque created by Auguste Rodin (ah-GOOST' roh-DAHN') a century ago will soon be returned to its place on the Champlain Memorial Lighthouse, slated to reopen this spring after a more than $2 million restoration project that included conserving the French sculptor's "La France."
The 25 1/4-inch-by-21 1/2-inch bas-relief bust depicting a woman – reputed to be Rodin's model and mistress, Camille Claudel – was donated by the French government when the memorial was completed in 1912. The plaque was removed from the 72-foot-tall granite monument last year when crews began cleaning the memorial to French explorer Samuel de Champlain.
Crown Point, on a shoreline bluff 95 miles north of Albany, was home to a French settlement and fort from 1731-1759.
While similar versions of the Rodin bust exist, it's safe to say no other campground in the United States can lay claim to artwork created by a sculptor considered one of the greatest of the modern era, said Charles Vandrei, historic preservation officer for the state Department of Environmental Conservation, which operates the campground.
Rodin, who died in 1917, is best known for "The Thinker" and "The Kiss."
The Rodin's presence at Crown Point (pop. 2,000) , wasn't widely known outside this lakeside community, where locals consider it good luck to touch the sculptor's signature – "A Rodin" – in the plaque's lower left corner, Vandrei said.
Even within the art world, news of Crown Point's Rodin can surprise some aficionados. The Rodin Museum in Paris wasn't aware of it until a Vermont college professor's inquiry several years ago, Vandrei said.
Officials at the Rodin Museum in Philadelphia, which claims to contain the largest Rodin collection outside Paris, were incredulous when told one of the sculptor's works was displayed on a monument at a public campground in upstate New York.
"It's one of those things that fell off everyone's radar," said Jennifer Thompson, an 18th and 19th century painting and sculpture expert at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, which administers the Rodin Museum.
While the rustic locale of the Rodin sculpture caught museum curators off guard, its presence on U.S. soil isn't surprising, she said.
"Rodin was incredibly popular in America," Thompson said. "Very early on, there were many American artists and American collectors who were going to France for Rodins."
Francois Gauthier, France's consulate general in Boston, said he learned three years ago that a Rodin was on public display at Crown Point, home to a French settlement and fort from 1731-1759. Gauthier helped raise the $3,000 cost of conserving the Rodin plaque.
"There are not many statues that are offered to the public like the statue at the Crown Point monument," Gauthier said. "It's a symbol of the French-American friendship."
No special security measures had been in place to safeguard the Rodin bust, but that will change when the sculpture is remounted in its perch about 8 feet off the ground in the heavily patrolled campground. A surveillance camera and alarm system linked to a DEC office staffed around the clock will be installed, plus other measures Vandrei wouldn't discuss in detail.
While he said the plaque has never been appraised, other Rodin works have sold for millions of dollars.
The DEC and other state agencies debated whether to return the Rodin to the monument or display it elsewhere in a more secure, less remote venue, Vandrei said. But since it was a gift from France to the American people, officials decided to keep it in Crown Point.

Recent tragedies used to misdrect emotions
Recently, I was sparked by a simple observation regarding the gun control debate: Limiting the Second Amendment to protect only muskets would be the same as limiting the First Amendment to protect only writing with quills. Like a street magician who misdirects in a game of three-card Monte, political leaders use recent tragedies to misdirect emotions. Oklahoma has experienced its share of tragedy. Oklahomans are a special people called by our nature to take action when others face tragedy. In an effort to act, some are attracted to a false promise of satisfaction by removing the tool of the tragedy as a manner of coping with the incomprehensible behavior of those evil people.
Experience teaches that regulating an inanimate object, rather than the mind that wields it, fails to produce change. As prohibition didn't stop the drunkard, betting that regulating guns will eliminate evil behavior is hubris. Our greatest threat isn't the wicked mind wielding a gun; it's the invincible ignorance of a misled populous that continues playing the three-card Monte game and losing every round. In this case, it's the belief that sacrificing personal liberty will somehow compel evil to consciously convert to sanity.
When tragedy struck Oklahoma, we didn't make calls to outlaw Ryder trucks. Of course, after 9/11, our political leaders could have outlawed planes as the Constitution doesn't acknowledge our God-given right to flight. But of course they saw the folly in such action.
