Inventing Impressionism; National Gallery
This country's first major exhibition dedicated to Paul Durand-Ruel, the art dealer who discovered the Impressionists, Inventing Impressionism celebrates the man who popularised an art form that for some time remained completely derided. As well as examining the man himself, the exhibition of course highlights the artists he supported – from Monet to Manet to Pissarro. It's an illuminating show and one that is already attracting gushing reviews despite having only opened on Wednesday. In his five-star synopsis of the show, the Telegraph's Richard Dormet calls it the most significant Impressionist exhibition we've seen in this country in two decades. "If you see only one exhibition this year, make it this one."
When: until Sunday May 31
Where: National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, WC2
Getting there: services to Charing Cross
Cost: £18; under-12s free and some £9 concessions available
Alexandra Palace Antiques Fair
Alexandra Palace provides a sufficiently spacious venue for the scores of traders expected to attend this inaugural IACF-run antiques fair. All manner of objects will be on sale, but expect a preponderance of home décor items in particular. As usual with such events, the best pieces are likely to be snapped up quickly so organisers are recommending people come early.
When: Sunday March 8
Where: Alexandra Palace Way, London N22 7AY
Getting there: by Tube to Wood Green or train to Alexandra Palace Rail and then by the W3 bus to Alexandra Palace
Cost: trade buyers can enter from 8am for £12; members of the public can attend from 9.30am, for £6; under-16s free
LEAF; Tobacco Dock
A two-day affair, the London Electronic Arts Festival commences on Friday day with a series of talks, demonstrations and discussions all aimed at fans of electronic music, tech and art, before the focus shifts more to performance. On Friday evening, expect a number of world-class electronic artists, such as Modeselektor, to play at LEAF Live, while on Saturday a festival-style programme will see electronic artists and representatives from some of London's best nightclubs collaborate to host sets from morning to night.
When: Friday March 6 to Saturday March 7
Where: 50 Porters Walk, London E1W 2SF
Getting there: by DLR or Overground to Shadwell
Cost: prices vary
Alluring Orchids; Kew Gardens
With the weather set to improve, Alluring Orchids provides a reason to visit Kew Gardens this weekend. The event celebrates all kinds of orchids and explains how the flowers use unexpectedly sophisticated means to "tempt, exploit and attract" their pollinators. Visitors will learn how their colour, shape and smell have evolved to make them one of the most successful and diverse plant families on the planet. The orchids exhibition will be held in the Princess of Wales Conservatory and visitors will have the opportunity to explore the rest of the gardens on the day.
When: until Sunday March 8
Where: Kew, Richmond, Surrey, TW9 3AB
Getting there: by Tube to Kew Gardens or rail to Kew Bridge
Cost: £15; concessions £14; under-17s free
Women of the World Festival; Southbank Centre
Celebrating its fifth year, the Southbank Centre's Women of the World Festival is a collection of talks, workshops and performances all with the shared aim of celebrating women and girls. This year the programme features a comedy evening hosted by Sandi Toksvig; a screening of The Prophet and talk with Salma Hayek; a discussion on the humanitarian issues facing women, hosted by Annie Lennox and the Southbank's Jude Kelly, and much more. Further details on the programme are available on the WOW website.
When: until Sunday March 8
Where: Southbank Centre, Belvedere Road, London SE1 8XX
Getting there: by Tube to Waterloo
Cost: prices vary
Vault Festival; Waterloo
Vault Festival defines itself as "the most unexpected and untamed underground festival ever". In practice that means it stages up to 20 shows per day, showcasing acts and tackling themes that should be a good deal more provocative than your average mixed-arts show. This year, "inequality in politics, gender and income" is the topic that will form the focus for many of the additions to the programme, be they musical performances, theatre productions, comedy shows or dance.
When: until Sunday March 8
Where: The Vaults, Leake St, SE1 7NN
Getting there: by Tube to Waterloo or Lambeth North
Cost: Shows typically cost £5, £8, £12 or £15, with a £1.50 transaction charge per ticket. There are some free performances

This is a great place to start learning Java. I think the book is good for beginners to start learning Java, as well as great reference for those experienced with Java. The book does not use an IDE to create, compile, and run the programs. It uses javac and java commands to compile and run. I used both the SDK command lines and the IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition to compile and run the programs. Both worked fine, but I also have an interest in learning to use IntelliJ IDEA. The book covers the Java language, the Java Library, Software Development with Java Beans, Swing, Servlets, and ends with building 2 sample applications. The book covers Data Types and Operators, Control Statements, Classes, Objects, Methods, Packages, Interfaces, Exception Handling, Inheritance, I/O, Multithreading, Enumerations, Autoboxing, Static Import, Annotations, Generics, Applets, Events, AWT and Swing, Java's Documentation Comments, Varargs, Networking, Collections, Concurrent API, JavaBeans, and servlets. All the code is available for download and is very well organize and usable. It is separated by chapter. My favorite part of the book was that it spent a lot of time on UI topics. There were several good chapters on AWT and Swing. I also like the author's writing style. The book is a nice read as well as a good reference. My main complaint about this book is that it includes almost all of the Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition. Anyone beginning Java would obviously start with Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition, but if I was to do it again, I would not bother with Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition. The only advantage the Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition book offers is that it is more of a tutorial oriented book. It has little extras like self-tests and hands on exercises. My main complaint leads to my second complaint. I would have liked to see more on Servlets. There is a chapter that introduces them and then they are used in the sample applications, but I would have liked to see a lot more on them. I know the book is already huge, but if the Java, A Beginner's Guide, 5th Edition was not included in it, there would have been plenty of room for more on Servlets. I have a C# background so the concepts and syntax were not that hard to pick up. What I needed was an overview of the libraries that are available with Java. I felt I got what I needed to jump start my Java learning path. I will be keeping this book handy to use as a reference in the future. All in all I find this a great book for the beginner and the experienced Java programmer. |

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.

Barbecue Shredded Chicken in the Slow Cooker
I really like to come home to the aroma and taste of Gluten-Free, Barbecue Shredded Chicken!
This tangy, filling dinner is just what I need after a long day at work, shopping at the mall or an afternoon of gardening in my backyard.
While "30 minute meals" are really helpful, a meal like this, that only requires me to spend about 10 minutes putting ingredients in the slow cooker is even better. Slow cooker meals are, to my mind, the ultimate in "set and forget" cooking activities!
I just load the ingredients into my crockpot and …
Gluten-Free Chicken Paprikash
I have liked the flavors of Chicken Paprikash since I first moved to Illinois in my early twenties. After the stress of being transplanted from Texas to Illinois, and worse yet, leaving behind the wonderful Mexican food that was everywhere to be found in Texas, the first restaurant in Illinois where we ate had a delightful dish of Chicken Paprikash on their menu.
The unfamiliar name intrigued me, and I quickly discovered the flavor was wonderful!
It wasn't gluten-free then – I didn't know that was a problem for me anyway — but with so many options for gluten-free pasta available now, I can easily make this for dinner anytime.
This version of Gluten-Free Chicken Paprikash may not be exactly like the original dish I enjoyed years ago, but it is flavorful and easy to make. And my husband even likes it!
Gluten-Free Carne Guisada
Tender chunks of meat, spices and flavorful vegetables braised together make a fragrant Mexican version of beef stew called Carne Guisada.
The flavors of Carne Guisada are ideal for a simple family dinner. My husband likes it on the mild side, and I kick it up with extra Pico de Gallo or Salsa on mine.

Deja Dead
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentGreat start to a very interesting series. I like the characters and can get a good visualization of the story as it goes along.
Amazing book. Enough to get me hooked on reading all of the "Bones" books, and watching the TV show! It's so rare to find a good mix of accurate medical information combined with an exciting, suspenseful story line. 5+ stars!!!
Good suspense, a little hard to get into at first with the medical detail but once the story started flowing it was hard to put down.
It always amazes me that books with writing this terrible become bestsellers. It's loaded with mixed metaphors and unnecessary verbiage. The characters are flat and not sympathetic. It's not even suspenseful until around page 350 (after that I just skimmed over the bad writing to see what happened). There's not very much in the way of forensics a la the TV show, either. Skip this one, it's not worth your time.
Good thriller. There is some science as the author is a forensic anthropologist and she knows her stuff, it's interesting. Keeps you on the edge of your seat and making sure your door to the outside is locked. Some interesting thoughts about murder and victimization of women in our world. Also interesting how she wants to identify the murdered dead women and let them RIP.
Good book. Likely to keep you up at night- either reading, thinking, or inspecting dark corners in your bedroom.
As the book is in Quebec, there's a little bit of Canadian French interspersed, most of which is translated, but I had a bit of trouble remembering some of the phrases.
I read this book a few years ago because I had started to watch the show Bones and found out that there were a series of books that had the same female character and was intrigued. I read it and enjoyed it immensely, not only because it was a good story, but that it was set in a city that I was somewhat familiar with. And when I picked it up again this time around, I wasn't disappointed. In fact, I probably enjoyed the book more this time because I was able to catch details that I hadn't caught before. If you enjoy suspense type books and if you like the TV series Bones, you probably will enjoy the book. It should be noted that the book doesn't at all resemble the show.
A book with many twists and turns, Déjà Dead keeps you guessing until the end. The science behind the book was detailed and added an authentic feel, and the way the plot develops is nearly seamless. A heavy read, but worth finishing.

18 Birth Control Bosses Trying to Sue in Affordable Care Act Lawsuit
Category: Birth Control
As of today, 18 for-profit companies have filed lawsuits to earn the right to deny women access to birth control with no co-pay. That's right — even though the birth control benefit, as part of the Affordable Care Act, already provides an exemption for religious institutions and places of worship, these for-profit companies think they should have the right to decide whether women get access to affordable birth control. Because they personally don't agree with it.
There's David Green, the CEO of Hobby Lobby, a craft store chain with 21,000 employees who wants to have the right to dictate his employees' health care decisions. And there's also the CEO of Autocam, a transportation and medical equipment company who, in spite of saying, "I don't tell my employees how to live their lives or how make decisions about family planning or abortion," has sued so he can do precisely that.
The fact that 70 percent of Americans support the birth control benefit isn't stopping these mostly male CEO's from opposing a benefit that's good for women and families. To make matters worse, there are 11 politicians in Washington — all male — lining up to support them.
While these politicians are siding with the bosses, we're siding with the vast majority of Americans who believe that birth control is basic, preventive care and should be available with no co-pay. Women should be able to make the decisions about their health care, without interference from politicians or their bosses.

Please share.
At CarShare Vermont, we're committed to changing the culture of car dependence because our future depends on it. But we can't do it alone. We successfully introduced car-sharing to Burlington in 2008 with the goal of becoming a financially self-reliant nonprofit. We're making great progress toward this goal, while expanding our service to neighboring towns and soon Montpelier. As of 2014, we're more than 80% self-sufficient, meaning that the revenue we earn covers more than 80% of our total operating expenses, including delivering mission-driven programs like MobilityShare, the Park It! Pledge, and #LetsShare. We rely on support from our community – individuals, businesses, and foundations – to help close the gap so that we can continue to grow and extend our reach. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of whatever amount you can to support our continued success.
If you're already a CarShare Vermont member, please use this donation form.
If you're not a member of CarShare Vermont, you can securely donate online.
If you'd like to hear about our accomplishments in the past year, check out our 2014 Annual Update. You can view it here as a PDF.
In 2014, 86% of our members reported belonging to zero or one-car households, and 46% got rid of a vehicle or opted not to purchase one since joining CarShare Vermont. At the rate our members shed vehicles, we've removed 225 from the Burlington streets to date!
With your help, we'll continue to make our service accessible to anyone who needs it, allow more people and businesses to get around with fewer vehicles, and better the environment. Thank you.

Critical skills for graduating veterinarians
Over the last year, more than 200 stakeholders have been discussing the ways the veterinary education system may need to adapt to serve society's needs over the next 25 years. NAVMEC, or the North American Veterinary Medical Education Consortium, recently released its draft report giving recommendations on possible changes.
The topics covered range from how to ensure an economically viable education system to what skills new veterinarians need to graduate "career ready."
At Western Veterinary Conference in Las Vegas, dvm360 Content Director Marnette Falley caught up with Dr. Michael Chaddock, AAVMC deputy director, to talk about the core competencies the report highlights for graduating veterinarians and about how he imagines recommendations about core competencies could play out across veterinary school admissions and curricula.
The comment period has been extended to May 1. So you can still weigh in! Click here to read the report and then submit your feedback on the recommendations.

Way too light, just shiny, but very little color.
Comment on this review
May be my favorite blush ever!
By Carolina Girl
from Clemson, SC
describe yourself Classic Style
This was my first time with a cream blush, and I was nervous it would not last or look greasy. My first time wearing it was a hot, humid, raining South Carolina day. To my very pleasant surprise, it lasted until I washed it off at bedtime. The peach gold color is beautiful , and I love the slight gleam it gave. Perfect for mature skin. There is no cakiness like with powder blush. May not last on very oily skin. Very easy to apply by tapping it on with fingertips.
Expert Application Technique: Use fingers to apply blush. Dot cheeks in center and gently sweep upward to enhance cheekbones.

I am planning on getting the first volume of this series, and i have found them, but they are in either trade paperback or Digest form. The Digest form is alot cheaper, but i am wondering, what is the big diffrence and which one is better to read?
Trade or Digest?
The size difference is pretty massive. Marvel's digests are as small as manga - So if you have a collection of those, they'd fit alongside them nicely, but if you have more trades, then they'll fit better with those. I would go with the trades, myself - The reproduction of the art in the digests is much too small and the paper quality is quite poor.

Artist: The Prodigy
Song: The Big Gundown
Album: Lost Beats EP
Guess many of you know The Prodigy, if not here you go for a quick introduction:
Am into electronic music lately and this song is one of the better songs from Prodigy in my opinion. I really like it! But there are lots of other good ones on their new album Invaders Must Die. If you are into electronic music, I suggest you give it a try!Quote:
The Prodigy is a British electronic group formed by Liam Howlett in 1990, in Braintree, Essex, England. Along with Orbital, The Chemical Brothers and The Crystal Method, as well as other acts they are pioneers of the electronic dance genre which achieved mainstream popularity in the 1990s, and are known for high-quality live sets. They have sold over 17 million records worldwide which is unequalled in dance music history.

The Wellingtonian
A pronounced economic decline has had serious social implications for the Wellington region, according to governance panel chairman Sir Geoffrey Palmer.
The independent panel, comprising Sir Geoffrey, Sir Wira Gardiner, Sue Driver and Bryan Jackson, has until the end of October to consult with the region's residents and make a recommendation to Wellington regional and Porirua councils before they make their own submissions to the Local Government Commission.
The panel released an issues paper last week to guide public submissions.
Sir Geoffrey said the paper's primary focus was about the needs of ratepayers and residents and how to meet them, rather than on possible governance structures.
Apathy in local democracy
The paper identified a fall in the number of voters in local body elections as a cause for concern.
In 2010 the voter turnout in the region ranged from 39 to 57 per cent.
It questioned whether larger councils with greater responsibility would attract better candidates to run for office and whether voters would therefore be more likely to vote.
Local liabilities
Hutt ratepayers could question why, in an amalgamated council, they should bail Wellington out of its debt or leaky homes liabilities.
Wellington ratepayers might have concerns about sharing the cost of making up the Hutt's infrastructure deficit.
The amalgamated Auckland councils appear to be headed towards efficiencies from economies of scale and shared services of 2.5 to 3 per cent, though the savings will be offset in the short term by the costs of integration. In the first year of its operation, Auckland Council has reported efficiencies of $81 million.
Future councils
The panel has offered alternatives for residents to consider:
No change. "The status quo option is always popular when there is no agreement on what should replace it."
Retained regional council with spatial planning powers and some territorial authority amalgamations.
A two-tier system with a regional council to rate and provide regional services, and local services by the existing local councils.
Two regional authorities replacing the existing regional council and all territorial authorities; one comprising South Wairarapa, Carterton and the Masterton district councils, and the second comprising Wellington, Porirua, Hutt, Upper Hutt and Kapiti Coast councils.
A single super-council similar to Auckland with local boards.
See wellingtonreviewpanel. org.nz.
To make a submission email to info@wellingtonreviewpanel. org.nz or post to: Issues Paper, Wellington Region Local Government Review, P O Box 11-646, Manners St, Wellington.
Submissions close September 7.
Wellington City Council's current debt per ratepayer is $2082.
If all debt were pooled under a super-city including Wairarapa, that would become $1630 per ratepayer.
If Wellington joined only Porirua, it would be $1870; if we amalgamated with Porirua and Kapiti, it would be $2040; if we amalgamated with Upper Hutt, Lower Hutt, Porirua and Kapiti Coast it would be $1610.

Spotted very prominently displayed in a bookstore in Beaune, France:
I first learned of the book from Parker himself on twitter a few months back:
I don't read French well, unfortunately, so I can't validate Mr. Parker's assessment of the book, but it certainly didn't seem to be excoriating. But then again it all depends on the point of view you bring to the book. Fans may see pure satire, while foes may find vindication for their enmity.
It certainly did look funny.
Looks like it's available from Amazon France for anyone who really wants a copy.

Landlord ordered to pay Sunshine Coast tenants $1500 for renting out home smelling of dog urine
- From: The Sunday Mail (Qld)
- September 09, 2012
A LANDLORD has been ordered to pay his Sunshine Coast tenants $1500 for renting out a home that stank of dog urine.
The couple, who paid $500 a week to rent the home, claimed the stench was so overwhelming they had to spend hundreds of dollars on cleaning, could not enter some rooms and lost income.
The Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal agreed the Buderim tenants should be compensated and ordered the landlord to pay $1500, but the couple appealed the decision and argued for thousands more.
In December last year they sought compensation that included 95 per cent reduction in rent from the day they moved in, $1500 for cleaning expenses and $2500 for loss of income.
Justice Alan Wilson, however, last week dismissed the appeal for extra compensation.

[[caption-width-right:350:The most famous hairdo in movie history.]]
->''"To a new world of gods and monsters!"''
-->-- '''Dr. Pretorius'''
The 1935 sequel to the 1931 film ''Film/{{Frankenstein|1931}}'', this is widely considered to be the best of the old UniversalHorror movies. Creator/BorisKarloff and Colin Clive reprise their roles as the monster and Dr. Henry Frankenstein, respectively, while Ernest Thesiger joins the proceedings as as Dr. Septimus Pretorius and Elsa Lanchester plays the eponymous Bride.
We begin in the home of Creator/LordByron, entertaining his friends Percy and Mary Shelley as a [[ItWasADarkAndStormyNight storm rages outside]]. At Byron's urging, Mary continues the story of Frankenstein, picking up about [[ImmediateSequel where the original film left off]].
Henry Frankenstein [[NoOneCouldHaveSurvivedThat just barely survives]] the collapsing windmill, but so does the [[NotQuiteDead monster]]. Shortly thereafter, Frankenstein receives a visit from his old mentor, [[CampGay Dr. Pretorius]], who wants to join forces and continue Frankenstein's experiments to create life. In one of the movie's most memorable scenes, Pretorius shows Frankenstein a series of little people in jars, including a [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent mermaid]], a ballerina and a little [[{{Satan}} devil]]. Pretorius can make people, but he can't get them up to normal size. Frankenstein, meanwhile, has created a giant. And so Pretorius proposes a plan: Frankenstein will provide the body, and Pretorius will provide the brain.
Meanwhile, the monster has several encounters with angry villagers and is eventually taken in by a kindly old blind hermit. The hermit teaches the monster to speak, and is the only friend he's ever had. Naturally, the villagers show up and drive the monster away, and he goes to a graveyard to find solitude among the dead. And whom should he happen to meet but [[ContrivedCoincidence Dr. Pretorius gathering parts for the new creature]]. Enticed by the possibility of having a friend, the monster forms an alliance with Pretorius.
Frankenstein, meanwhile, is getting cold feet about creating another monster. In a sequence reminiscent of the original novel, the creature and Pretorius kidnap [[IAmNotShazam Frankenstein's young bride, Elizabeth]], and threaten to kill her unless he makes the monster a mate. It all leads up to an explosive conclusion in Frankenstein's laboratory, where the new monster has finally been born.
One thing to note: Although the monster is childlike and [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds rather sympathetic]], he still kills people -- a ''lot'' of people. Film historians put the original death count at 21, but it was [[ExecutiveMeddling edited down to 10]] due to the [[UsefulNotes/TheHaysCode film content restrictions of the time]]. At one point the monster seems to break into an elderly couple's house and kill them [[ForTheEvulz just because]]. Like Film/KingKong's tendency to eat people, the monster's violent nature is often glossed over to facilitate a "[[HumansAreTheRealMonsters we are the REAL monsters]]" aesop.
The franchise was continued in ''Film/SonOfFrankenstein''.
The Bride of Frankenstein, despite rather short screen time, is one of the eight Major Universal Monsters.
!!This film provides examples of:
* AnimalReactionShot: The DullSurprise shot on an owl watching the monster drowning a man and his wife in the cavern below the windmill.
* AnswerCut: Elizabeth describes a vision of an evil apparition which will entangle Henry, and says she sees it drawing nearer nearer and the camera cuts to the [[MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate evil Dr]]. [[InadvertentEntranceCue Pretorius knocking at the door]].
* ArtifactTitle: In Shelley's novel, "Frankenstein" was the name of the scientist, and the monster was nameless. This was also the case in the 1931 film. This film, titled ''Bride of Frankenstein'' despite the fact that the Bride is meant for the monster and not the scientist, is arguably the reason that the monster came to be named "Frankenstein" in popular culture.
* AsYouKnow: Used a ''lot'' in the opening scene of Byron and the Shelleys. First Byron describes himself, Percy and his wife Mary in great deal to them, and then goes on to recap the first film's events.
* AxeBeforeEntering: After the Monster is chained up in Goldstadt's jail, he is quick to [[BreakingTheBonds break his bonds]] and rip two doors off that stand in his way to freedom.
* BeehiveHairdo: The Bride famously sports one of these, which also has two {{Skunk Stripe}}s on its sides.
* BigBad: Dr. Pretorius, whose need to [[CreatingLife create life]] in new ways drives the plot.
* BlatantLies: Karl's "It was a ... Police case."
* BlindAndTheBeast: After the Monster escapes from jail, he comes across a hut with violin music coming out of it. Inside it, he meets an old blind hermit, who welcomes him soothe his own loneliness. The film is possibly the trope maker.
* {{Bookends}}: The film opens with Creator/MaryShelley, played by Elsa Lanchester, [[FramingDevice telling the story of Frankenstein]]. As she begins relating the sequel, she spreads her arms wide... and at the end of the film, the Bride of Frankenstein, also played by Lanchester, makes the same gesture.
* CallBack: Clive repeats his legendary "It's alive!" line (this time amended to "She's alive!").
* CampGay: Dr. Pretorius. Director James Whale reportedly told the actor to play him "like an over the top caricature of a bitchy and aging homosexual."
* CardboardPrison: The town's prison was not built to withstand the forces of the Monster and hence he has little problems to remove himself from it.
* CassandraTruth: After witnessing the monster's return, Minnie attempts to tell about it to one person but is just scoffed at. She then decides to shut up about it.
* CatchPhrase: Dr. Pretorius tells about every vice that he has that "[[BlatantLies It's my only weakness.]]"
* CollapsingLair: The fate of Pretorius' tower at the end. Henry and Elizabeth escape JustInTime.
* CreatingLife: A running theme through the Frankenstein franchise. Here it's Dr. Pretorius seeking to be a creator of life.
* CrucifiedHeroShot: When the villagers have caught and tied up the Monster on to a pole, they momentarily raise him up, creating this effect.
* CutLexLuthorACheck: Dr. Pretorius could have become famous for his telephone-like invention. [[AGodAmI That is, if he cared about money at all, rather than playing God]].
* CuteMonsterGirl: Never in her career did Elsa Lanchester look so good.
* DespairEventHorizon: The Monster, after realizing that no-one will ever love him after seeing his bride-to-be's reaction to him, decides to destroy himself along with his bride and creator.
* DisneyDeath: Henry is thought to be dead in the beginning but turns out just fine after being taken home.
* DrGenericius: Dr. Pretorius, one of the earlier examples in cinema.
* DutchAngle: Used in a lot of shots in the scene where Henry and Dr. Pretorius prepare to install a new heart to the bride.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Dr. Pretorius' henchmen Karl and Ludwig are appalled by their work on robbing graves. After one such deed, they agree that it is a terrible life for a murderer.
* EvilLaugh: Dr. Pretorius has it.
* {{Fainting}}: Hans' wife faints when she sees her husband fall through the windmill's rubble, just after warning him that searching the place is dangerous.
* FingerTwitchingRevival: At the beginning, Henry is diagnoses dead by the villagers after the explosion, so they take his body home and place it on a table. Soon after, the maid cries out when his hand starts moving, then he comes to. Of course, as one of the main characters he had to have PlotArmor.
* FramingDevice: In form of a prologue. The main story is told by Mary to her two friends during a [[ItWasADarkAndStormyNight dark and stormy night]].[[note]]An epilogue was filmed but later cut from the final film.[[/note]]
* GraveRobbing: Dr. Pretorius has his henchmen Ludwig and Karl dig up bodies for his and Henry's upcoming collabration.
* HaveAGayOldTime: Minnie describes Dr. Pretorius as "a queer fellow". Which ''may'' have been deliberate -- see CampGay, above.
* HeelRealization: While not outright stated, the Monster only decides to let Frankenstein and Elizabeth go and kill Pretorius when he sees how much Elizabeth loves Frankenstein, who he'd previously helped Pretorius separate.
* HeWentThatWay: One of the villagers uses this phrase, unintentionally misdirecting the mob to look elsewhere while the monster is hiding in a crypt at the cemetery.
* HostileWeather: Storm rages outside in the prologue, much to Creator/LordByron's joy.
-->'''Byron:''' How beautifully dramatic!
* {{Hulkspeak}}: How the Monster talks once the blind hermit [[SuddenlyVoiced teaches him to speak]].[[note]]James Whale and the studio psychiatrist selected 44 simple words for the Monster's vocabulary by looking at test papers of [[CastTheExpert ten-year olds working at the studio]].[[/note]]
* HystericalWoman / ScreamingWoman: Minnie is quick to scream and flail at surprising things.
* IHaveYourWife: The Monster, on Dr. Pretorius' orders, kidnaps Elizabeth so that her husband will co-operate in making a bride for him.
* InadvertentEntranceCue: Elizabeth describes a vision of an evil apparition which will entangle Henry, and says she sees it drawing nearer -- nearer -- and the camera immediately [[AnswerCut cuts]] to the [[MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate evil Dr. Pretorius]] knocking at the door.
* InfantImmortality: Averted ''again''. Once the Monster escape from the jail, its victims are soon discovered around town, which includes a little girl.
* InstantSedation: When the Monster's pestering of Henry to finish his work proves to be a nuisance, Dr. Pretorius lures him aside with a promise of booze, and puts a sedative into a glass that presents to him. Once the Monster finishes his drink, it knock him off of his feet.
* InventionalWisdom: At the end of the film, the enraged Monster is rampaging through the lab. As he approaches a very large wooden lever Dr. Pretorius shouts, "Don't touch that lever! You'll blow us all to atoms!" The question must be asked: if you were collecting all the supplies and fixtures you'd need to build your super high-tech lab, how far down the list would "a lever that will blow us all to atoms" be?
* ImmediateSequel: Bride picks up right where the original ''Film/{{Frankenstein}}'' leaves off.
* ImmuneToBullets: Villagers and policemen try to stop the Monster with bullets, to no avail.
* ItsGoingDown: The Monster flips a lever that destroys the tower housing the laboratory at the end.
* ItWasADarkAndStormyNight: The prologue opens this way.
* LightningCanDoAnything: Dr. Frankenstein has kites raised up in the air once a lightning starts to rage outside the tower. The bride is given life after one lightning bolt hits them.
* MadScientist: Dr. Pretorius, who is revealed to have been TheManBehindTheMan to Dr. Frankenstein.
* ManipulativeBastard: Pretorius to both Frankenstein and his Monster, in order to get life created.
* ManlyTears: The Monster sheds a SingleTear right before he pulls the lever.
%%* MixAndMatchMan
%%* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Dr. Pretorius.
* NeverTrustATrailer: The original trailer promises "a lifetime of entertainment in two hours". The final edit ran 75 minutes.
* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: The concerned woman in the beginning to her husband "Come home, Hans. Nothing could be left alive in that furnace.". [[spoiler:Then both end up being killed by The Monster.]]
* NoOSHACompliance: The lab's SelfDestructMechanism seems poorly secured.[[note]][[FridgeBrilliance Then again]], one could imagine it was installed to destroy evidence of his incriminating activities quickly, should the locals come with TorchesAndPitchforks (as they tend to do). Pretorius probably had a SecretUndergroundPassage, and would tell one of his henchmen to pull the switch at a designated time to initiate the tower's "defense mechanism".[[/note]]
* NotNamedInOpeningCredits: Elsa Lanchester never receives on screen credit as "The Bride". The character is listed as being played by "?".
* NotQuiteDead:
** The Monster is thought to have died within the burning windmill, but he simply fell through to a cavern below.
** Also Henry, dying his DisneyDeath.
* OhCrap: Henry's reaction when he learns that the heart of a "young victim of sudden death" as he requested Karl to get was "A very fresh one" and a "police case".
* OurHomunculiAreDifferent: Dr. Pretorius' little people (with different personalities) [[PeopleJars in jars]]. They aren't called homunculi, but are obviously supposed to be.
* PeopleJars: Dr. Pretorius shows off his work in creating life-- [[OurHomunculiAreDifferent little people]] (and [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent a mermaid]]-- "an experiment with seaweed") -- in jars.
%%* PluckyComicRelief: Minnie.
* PreviouslyOn: Lord Byron brilliantly recaps the previous film's events as being the story that Mary Shelley wrote. Considering they mention that the novel hasn't even been published yet, this may make Byron something of a naive psychic.
* PsychopathicManchild: The monster, due to him possessing the brain of a criminal. He murders several people but doesn't do it for any particular reason until the end when he kills Pretorius. He just doesn't understand his own actions or the world around him until he's taught some very basic ethics by the hermit.
* RageAgainstTheReflection: After seeing his reflection on water, the monster splashes it angrily.
* RecycledSoundtrack: The musical soundtrack for this film proved so popular, it was used again in the Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers serials starring Buster Crabbe.
* ScienceIsBad: Partially subverted. The reformed Dr. Frankenstein is forced by evil MadScientist Dr. Pretorius to return to his old ways. The twist: Early on, Pretorius shows us his collection of tiny humans in glass jars, practically announcing that he's Mephistopheles. To this, Frankenstein replies, horrified, "This isn't science!" Here, sane Science Is Good, and has standards, but Black Magic Is Bad.
* SelfDestructMechanism: Pretorius' tower [[CollapsingLair comes down]] in a series of explosions when the Monster pulls a certain lever. Its actual purpose is never told.
* ShadowArchetype: Dr. Pretorius is what Dr. Frankenstein would become if he were to give in to the ForScience-method of thinking
* SkunkStripe: The bride's hair features these.
%%* SmugSnake: Pretorius all the way.
* AStormIsComing: Conveniently, a storm is rising up when one was needed to provide power for the creation of the Bride.
* SuddenlyVoiced: The monster learns to speak, although this was subsequently dropped for the next film.
* TakingYouWithMe: The Monster decides that he, his bride and Dr. Pretorius are better off dead, and after letting Henry and Elizabeth go, pulls the lever that destroys the tower.
-->'''The Monster:''' We belong dead.
* TemptingFate: On several occasions:
** After the town people have captured and imprisoned the Monster, the town major downplays the situation to concerned citizens by saying "Go to your homes. Just an escaped lunatic. Quite harmless." Cue the Monster bolting through the prison gate onto the street. Everybody panics.
** A similar situation at the Gypsy camp. The father assures everybody that the Monster is safe in jail, when suddenly the Monster stumbles into the camp.
** When Minnie voices her concerns about leaving Elizabeth alone in her room, latter assures her that everything will be fine. Cue the Monster entering through the window.
* TitleDrop: After the bride is unraveled from her shrouds, Dr. Pretorius is proudly declares "The Bride of Frankenstein!"
* TorchesAndPitchforks: Once the villagers learn that the Monster lives, Burgomaster quickly organizes a hunting party to capture him.
* TorturedMonster: The monster. He blows himself and his bride up with the comment, "we belong dead."
* {{Uberwald}}: Like the original, this movie is set in some Victorian never-never-land, not quite Germany, not quite Transylvania, not quite anywhere else between France and Russia.
* UglyGuyHotWife: The Monster's supposed wife was crafted with much more sophisticated methods, making her seem less a corpse than her husband-to-be.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: We never hear again from the blind man who was ushered away from his burning hut.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: The Monster, who is by turns sympathetic and pointlessly cruel.
* WorldOfHam: Lord Byron from the prologue, as well as Henry, Dr. Pretorius, Karl and Minnie are playing for LargeHam.
* TheXOfY: The X being "Bride" and Y being "Frankenstein".
* YouLookFamiliar: Creator/DwightFrye, who played Frankenstein's [[TheIgor hunchbacked assistant]] Fritz in the original film, appears here as Karl, a non-hunchbacked toady to Pretorius. The monster ''also'' kills him.
