What went wrong with the production of Berlioz' Béatrice et Bénédict, as rendered recently at Paris' Opéra Comique? Frankly, we at the Department of the Foreign Person at the Théâtre are still scratching our head, and with good reason: we have a mosquito bite. Meanwhile, we are trying to figure out what went wrong with the show.
This was a production that left us a bit troubled, for a reason we find difficult to admit to ourselves. That's because this reason is: puppets. This department finds itself very much in conflict over this, inasmuch as puppets are one of our primary Areas of Professional Interest, which means it is one of those things you can tick on an application alongside Communications, or at least it WOULD be if anybody actually believed it was an Area of Professional Interest, and that we are not just a little arrested weenie who likes playing with dolls. We will have you know, for the record, that it is an ENTIRELY viable Area of Professional Interest, especially for us little arrested weenies who like playing with dolls. So there.
But back to the production. Now don't get us wrong: we are infinitely grateful that puppetry is so highly esteemed in France. However, this is no excuse for outfitting opera singers as hideous Guignol marionnettes, their faces immobilized under approximately ten tons of makeup (each), their eyes unblinking black holes. In fact, this department never looked directly at their eyes, for fear of turning to stone.
And we have not yet mentioned: the hopping. These estimable performers (and again, don't get us wrong; they were) had been directed to HOP everywhere, we guess to evoke the jerky motions of real marionnettes on strings, the result being that they were obliged at all times to skitter around the stage, then jump, like this: tiktiktiktiktikHUNH!!!! Now this department does not wish to make unjust generalizations, but, how shall we put this? Opera singers are not generally small persons; therefore, as a Concerned Foreigner, we would like to suggest (are you listening, French government?) that federal measures be put in place to prevent opera singers from EVER jumping in any way, shape, or form, thus avoiding unnecessary tragedy and seismic action. Thank you for listening.
Of course, as we have noted, these were first-class performers. They did everything in their power to overcome the production's flaws, to keep the spotlight squarely on their powerful voices, their formidable presences.* And in the end, everything turns out happily, with the celebrated dénouement** in which Béatrice and Bénédict declare their love, and the audience hopes fervently that they (Béatrice and Bénédict) will never breed and people the world with hideous marionnette-children.
Naturally, we realize we are leaving ourself open to argument here, so if someone at the Opéra would like to debate these matters, we say, in our best French, "Bring it on, bébé." After all, they have a right: we didn't even pay for our ticket; it was a gift. Although, if you consider the four euros we had to pay for the experience of a can of Orangina at the interval, we'd argue we are more than even.
* We didn't say it WORKED.
** Literally, "tiktiktiktiktikHUNH!!!!"

L'Étrangère au Théâtre, no. 3: Much Ado About Something
3 comments:

Puppets, eh? I wonder if your presence en la belle france is why The Media Show hasn't been updating as often as previously.

If I didn't know better I might guess this department was hopping mad.
Was there any correlation between the hopping of the divas and recent seismic activity?

Hmm. Good question. Someone should look into it.
And to Feathered: Not sure -- I'm guessing the Media Show crew must be busy with other projects? But I believe they have some new writers these days, and I know they're still producing, so I'd keep checking on them.

Tricia Karp
With 25 years' experience as a communications professional, I was around when typewriters were the norm in TV newsrooms and mobile phones were bigger and heavier than house bricks.
My career began in traditional media, serving as a commercial radio and TV news and current affairs journalist, prime time Channel 7 TV news presenter, ABC radio news director, voice artist, and magazine writer. As a senior corporate communications adviser, I consulted, liaised with media, trained and wrote for clients in the state and federal governments, and across the transport, tourism, health, insurance, unions, not-for- profit, education, agriculture and wine industries.
My own successful consulting, speaking, training and coaching business has been marketed mostly – and most effectively – online, organically and honestly.
Today I bring my vast experience to my clients, to help them cut through the noise so they can get their message heard and inspire their right people to take action.
Quite simply, I'm a communications specialist with a sharp eye and ear for a great story, keen intuition, and loads of practical and relevant know-how. I'll help you connect with your audiences, cultivate trust and loyalty, and achieve excellent results.
I'm also the author of two books, including the Amazon number one bestseller "Own It: Powerful Speaking for Powerful Women", and "Media Talk: 35 Secrets You Need to Know Before You Talk to the Media".

Case study
The City of Prospect contracted me to create a podcast series reflecting the local community. I interviewed local identities, business people, members of clubs and community groups and young achievers, aged from 16 to 95 years-old. The series contains 32 podcasts. I also held training sessions to show community members how to produce their own podcasts to contribute to the series. You can listen to the podcast series here: Our Prospect Podcast
CPA Australia
Rachel Bakker, Conference & Events Executive
Tricia was the MC for our two-day event, CPA Congress, in Adelaide. She is great to work with and incredibly professional, taking on board all our ideas and plans for the Congress, and what we needed from the MC. She was keen to get across all the content of our event, and used her journalistic skills to dive a little deeper into the content. She was open to working with all my ideas and happy to adapt on the day when we needed to change things including a last-minute keynote sponsor!
Tricia has a natural rapport with the speakers putting them at ease and getting them to open up. She exudes warmth and approachability in her presenting style.
At Congress this year, Tricia provided an excellent summary of our congress that really captured the key themes relevant to our finance and business audience, a real challenge that she absolutely nailed.
Our event was extremely well reviewed by delegates. Tricia's professionalism as MC contributed to the success of the event by bringing all the elements together and providing a seamless flow to the event.
Justene Knight, Senior Consultant Organisational Development
Tricia has run a number of training programs for our organisation. There was so much demand for the first one that we had to schedule another one. Tricia has a high level of professionalism. Her capacity to listen and understand the quirks of your organisation's environment, then tailor her work to meet the needs of the organisation, and then deeper still for the group, is fantastic. She comes with a deep knowledge and experience, a preparedness to research further (she doesn't 'rest on her laurels') and a wonderful fresh energy and sense of humour. The feedback from Tricia's sessions has been extraordinarily positive.
William Buck
Jenni Osborn, HR Manager
Tricia ran a workshop series entitled "Own the Room: Powerful Speaking" for an all female group of senior professionals at William Buck. She tailored the content and facilitated the workshop expertly. The group had a wide range of personality types, experiences and challenges in 'owning the room' and all walked away with increased confidence and the skills to better represent themselves in public speaking situations and also in meetings. Thank you Tricia for your expertise and efforts.
Economic Development Board
Hugh Higgins, Principal Policy Officer
Through the Powerful Presentations workshops I have, without doubt, materially benefited from Tricia's deep understanding of what works, and perhaps more importantly, what does not work for a powerful presentation. Her simple, straightforward but unique insights are easy to get, remember and implement. Her techniques unlock the code for giving a powerful presentation. I really appreciated Tricia's professional and respectful but also playful and open way she led her workshops. The individual elements and interactive pieces were well thought through and very helpful. At the end of the workshops, I had a new understanding of not only the value, but also the importance of practice and of honing my presentation, particularly the first 2 minutes, and have gained new presentation skills that I will never forget.
Oliver's Real Foods
Jason Gunn, Managing Director
I've worked with Tricia on a number of occasions to improve my leadership communication skills, including presenting at conferences and dealing with the media. Tricia is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and has helped me communicate more effectively to make significant gains in my business. My time with her has been invaluable. I highly recommend working with Tricia.
Vicki Bastian,National HR Manager
When you meet Tricia Karp, you will discover she epitomises Leadership Presence. She is passionate about connecting with and inspiring others to develop their own leadership presence. I discovered this when I attended one of Tricia's Wise Talk "Leadership Presence" workshops. Tricia makes you really think about what you do, how you do it AND WHY you do it! It was so thought provoking and enlightening that I organised for Tricia to work with other Leaders within our business to improve their leadership presence and their ability to connect with and inspire the people they lead. The results have been amazing!
Barossa Lower North Futures & The Barossa Co-op
Yvonne Cloke, Executive Officer Barossa Lower North Futures & Paul Amos, Business Culture Leader The Barossa Co-op
Tricia ran a workshop for our teams to become stronger communicators and presenters. It was a challenging and confronting course, and our teams loved it and gained great benefit. It was amazing to watch such significant growth in just two days. Tricia has a unique ability to tackle the big issues and get fast results in a respectful and meaningful way. Her humour and friendliness put participants at ease from the beginning, and we appreciated her ability to push us. We were impressed by the way Tricia worked with people of varying levels of experience and confidence all in the same program. We thoroughly recommend the course, especially Tricia.

There is no one thing that defines the culture of Woking. It's the combination of the wonderful course, the members, the Clubhouse, the history; there is just something unique about playing and building relationships here. Perhaps that is why, over recent years, we have doubled the number of category 1 golfers, perhaps it is why we now have a younger membership than we have ever had, perhaps that is why there are more social groups, player groups, dinners and weekend roll-up events. Our men's, ladies' and junior sections are all thriving and we have a particularly large base of members not just from Surrey but from much of south west London as our transport links are so good.
Also, as we are still principally a 2-ball Club, play is always fast which allows members to get away after their game to do other things. The regular weekend roll-ups are a major part of Club life at Woking and ensure that if you turn up, you get a game!
If you wish to join and have connections to the Club via existing members, then the traditional route to membership may be open to you, but if you don't already have such connections we have a very successful 6 month 'temporary' membership scheme which allows successful applicants to meet members and get support for a full membership application. We also run a Ladies Academy (click here for details), in order to introduce new lady golfers to the game via a series of friendly coaching sessions.
The Club has also committed to a temporary reduction in the Entrance Fee payable by lady candidates, in order to further strengthen our friendly and active ladies section.
Please contact Richard Pennell, the Secretary, by email email@example.com for more details.

To the editor:
It would be nice if people walking the beaches looking for that perfect sea shell, would pick up a piece of plastic, or fishing line along with their seashells. All the plastic and fishing lines that are on the beach will eventually make it into the ocean.
Turtles mistake plastic for jelly fish. Dolphins, manatees, turtles and sea birds become entangled in fishing lines. The consequences are deadly.
It only takes a second to pick these items up and put them in the garbage.

You might have heard about the Tinseltown scandal involving the much hyped Michel Gondry Deborah Harry biopic. Apparently many die hard Blondie fans disapprove of Kirsten Dunst playing the punk fem rocker icon. I say, leave Kirsten alone. She's proven time and time again she can Bring it On, and she can kiss superheroes who are upside down really convincingly. What more can you want from an actress?
Granted, you were probably hoping for someone who could sing. Sure, Gwen Stefani would probably have been my first choice, but Kirsten has other talents. She can eat cake for one like in Marie Antoinette, she can make Mona Lisa Smile, and she's won Wimbledon. Just put some faith in her and her blonde roots, because if I know Hollywood, Ms. Dunst has the box office draw, so this movie is happening. Hopefully she'll win you over...one way, or another...she's gonna get ya get ya get ya get ya.

Why Go for Cosmetic Surgery?
More and more people are showing interest in cosmetic surgeries and this is a sure sign that they are indeed good medical procedures. The cosmetic surgeries will be a great avenue to enabling you to realize certain improvements on the body which may never have been possible otherwise. Facts are that there are cases where you will find that there are those physical features on the body which you will not be quite comfortable wearing and as such you will be well serviced with a procedure to take them off. Plastic surgery procedures are the only sure alternatives to dealing with such cases which will be of concern to such individuals. As such when you have a cause of such physical deformities and you have then corrected, you are quite afforded an opportunity to look and feel normal one more time. A physical makeover is nowadays acceptable in our societies unlike in times gone by.
A number of people all across the world are really appreciating the plastic surgery procedures for the restorative steps they help them achieve on their bodies. Physical deformities will bear great physical and economical consequences on the bearers of these deformities a matter of fact. In certain extreme cases we see the society alienating their members who bear some kinds of deformities as they are considered outcasts and associate the deformities with bad omen! In the other societal set ups which are assuming the modern trends, there may be such a striving for perfection, the members with physical deformities will often feel out of place. If you are in such a kind of situation, you will find the cosmetic surgery procedures will be a sure remedy to your needs. There are several kinds of cosmetic or plastic surgeries which one can go for to ensure that they receive the desired restoration to their physical appearances.
These are such as breast augmentation, tummy tucks and facelifts. However, it is as well important that you note the need to have a consultation with a surgeon before you decide on any plastic surgery procedure to take as a means to get the necessary advice prior to the surgery and also get appropriate advice on the most suitable surgery to get down for. These professionals will take a look at your medical history and as such advice you appropriately on the best procedure to go for. With such steps taken and with the right surgeon like Dr Eddy Dona the surgery candidate will be entering the procedure with a relatively good degree of having a perfect chance at avoiding the complications often coming post the surgeries.

Hi Roxy
My recovery is going well. I had a little swelling over the forehead and above the donor area at the back of the head on Saturday. However I noticed from Sunday afternoon the swelling was subsiding and today Monday the swelling has gone.
Tomorrow we go up to Ft Lauderdale where we normally stay and will return to your office on Monday 16th for suture removal. Dr Epstein advised Monday 16th would be the date.Please advise what time I should be in your office.
Please note we leave Miami early Wednesday 18th July to return home so I only have 16th or 17th for suture removal.
I am feeling good today and this morning took my last antibiotic tablet.
Please let Dr Epstein know that I am very pleased with the procedure and the experience was exactly as he said it would be.

When I hit on the accelerator pedal, I'm injecting fuel into the engine which literally explodes. These explosions then propel pistons in the engine that moves what I must assume are levers and pulleys that drives the discs known as tyres. When I hit on the brakes, there are clamp-things that are like alligator clips that munch on the tyres so they stop moving. The engine is used to charge the battery, which gives me power to start up the car, use indicator lights and listen to awful fucking music on the radio. There is a hole in the main control area that you can stick some dildo looking charging device in to charge a phone or use it to light a cigarette. The windscreen wipers are used to displace water so you can drive when it is raining, except when it's drizzling and you're not sure whether you should wait until the droplets accumulate into something opaque and then you swipe it all off with one hand motion, or leave it on auto. With the latter making a really agonizing scraping sound and the water doesn't actually disperse because your wipers are old and smear a thin oily film of water all over your windshield. It has been like 200 years since the industrial revolution, why didn't someone fix wiper technology.
Genius engineers took a really huge tube and decided that "it'll have to do" for propelling human beings 39,000 feet in the air at speeds of about 800 km/h. There's a pressurizing system so that we don't die after take-off, which is awesome. The crucial part of the airplane isn't the engines, although they are arguably pretty important - it's the wings, which allows the moving air to provide lift to the aforementioned pressurized steel tube that people decided to fight gravity in (and win, mostly). The planes literally run on a system of pulleys and levers, which are controlled by the "control surface" a pilot uses. Due to restrictions of space, a lot of the fuel is stored in the wings of airplanes, which is a great idea because when the engines inevitably explode on that one flight you'll be boarding, the wings will erupt into phoenix-like wings and result in a quick death. There are many redundant systems in place, except when both pilots die, all the engines fail (and the pilots are dead) and when the wings explode because the engines failed (and erupt into flames), killing everyone on board. Otherwise it was a really good invention and I like that you get free salted peanuts.
Engineers are real life worker units from RTS games that actually do all that shit in-game for a living. Buildings begin with a foundation, usually with huge piles of metal driven into the ground by weird dragon-like crane beasts that make so much fucking noise, I hate these things because they are so loud and there's construction happening right next to my condominium. This is known as "Piling". After this horrible orchestra of CLANGING, workers from a different country will begin building a scaffold. Then they'll start welding and connecting a series of steel beams, and then pour concrete over it. There are many vehicles that assist in the construction process, including concrete mixers, cranes, backhoes, and bulldozers. I know this because instead of transporting these heavy machines properly, the subcontractors here choose to drive them on the highways at 30 km/h, good job assholes. Between piling and opening, it's just steel beams, pouring concrete and arc welding flashes for like two years.
The court is where everyone looks really sad and/or angry because everyone is guilty or trying to jail the guilty. There are two parties, the plaintiff and the defendant - the defendant is trying not to go jail because he knows he is guilty, and the plaintiff is very angry with the defendant - but can't just straight up skullcrush him with a sledgehammer because then he'd be the defendant versus a state prosecutor. The judge is a guy, or gal that is a very unhappy person because they see a lot of really stupid law-breaking idiots in their working day. They have mostly lost faith in humanity because people have been told many times not to break the law, but yet here they are. In the judicial system, 80% of court cases are settled out of court because anger can be sated with money. The other 20% that have to be settled by a judge are crimes so bad that not even money was enough to appease the prosecuting party - this means that the defendant is straight up guilty and should be jailed eternally. There is a cop in the courthouse, and his job is to tell people to rise when the judge comes in from a secret back door that nobody else can come from.
I must applaud the person who invented air conditioning, and I can tell that this person came from a country with a devastatingly hot climate. Unlike the rest of his peers, who complained about the weather, this individual went out to make a machine that made hot air into cold air. This is impressive, because it is sorcery only matched by Gandalf dueling a Balrog at the bridge of Kazad-Dun. The air conditioning system is made out of two main components, a huge box with a fan inside it called the compressor, and the actually air conditioning unit itself - which is a rectangular white box with horizontal holes to dispel the cold air. How it works is that the compressor is put outside of the place it's trying to cool, because it is very loud and would cause partial deafness if left inside. This compressor takes hot air from the outside and then feeds it into the unit inside which is then cooled by icy-cold-coolant and then expelled for humans to enjoy. Sometimes the air conditioning unit inside starts to leak water because the ice-coolant-chemical inside is being adversely affected by global warming.

This made me laugh! In warmer weather when I haven't washed the car, and it starts drizzling, I wait.
I might not even use the wiper, because I know there won't be enough water to push all the dirt away

One of the major trends in the malware space over the last year or so has been a big increase in the area we call "P.U.S.", or Potentially Unwanted Software. (Other companies substitute "Application", "Program", or "File" for "Software", to get a more polite acronym, but we like to call it like it is…)
These programs live in a gray area between legitimate applications and truly malicious software.
Generally, they fall into categories described as "spyware" or "adware". They often hide behind a EULA that mentions, deep down in the small print, that they will gather information about your web surfing, in order to "improve your browsing experience", such as serving you more relevant advertisements. (I don't know about other people, but I don't think "more relevant ads" improve my browsing experience, whether I consent to them or not…)

'We're lucky to be living the dream' - Donnacha Ryan
"Ah, I'm grand." Such a familiar Irish response, and so Irish in that it says so little yet reveals so much. And the question is often delivered with as much disinterest as the answer.
How are you? Ah, I'm grand.
When we meet Donnacha Ryan, we tell him this by way of a tortured introduction, in order that after 33 years on this earth and nearly half a lifetime immersed in rugby, he will have a little more to say when asked, meaningfully, how are things.
So, Donnacha, how are you? He pauses, deep in thought.
"Ah, sure, I'm grand!" A light chuckle follows, much more meaningful a sound than the spoken, throwaway word. He has listened to the question.
He knows the answer. For he knows himself.
"I'm in good form," he elaborates. "I can't complain. Physically I'm very good, I'm feeling very strong and fit which is great. Training is great. All positive at the moment which is a great complaint to have."
For there were times when he could have had much to complain about.
A serious, seemingly debilitating foot complaint as he turned 30 forced him to stick his one good leg into the outside world, conscious that he may have to leave the only life he knew for another one utterly unknown.
Perspective would always meet him on the rare occasion when the Nenagh native dared to wallow; for instance, meeting the Paralympian in the gym back in 2014 who didn't have the use of his legs while Ryan fretted about the bothersome bone in his foot.
But he remembers the times when he himself, for a while, couldn't walk; the scar that remains is a constant reminder of his personal battle.
He has, at least, emerged on the other side.
Those of us in Paris a fortnight back were wowed at yet another in a series of remarkable combative displays but Ryan checks our enthusiasm just as he knows he always needs to catch himself.
Which is why he never says unthinkingly, "I'm grand," when asked how he is. Too dangerous to assume, you see.
Ryan featured in Chicago when Ireland made history against the All Blacks but appreciates were it not for Iain Henderson's AC tear, he may not even have made the plane.
In his opinion, he doesn't feel he was playing well enough anyway.
"I'd been carrying a chest infection up until autumn and I wasn't at full capacity, no doubt," he reveals.
"I was very fortunate to make that Chicago game purely because I wasn't playing well enough.
"Iain got an unfortunate knock and it was a complete stroke of luck. I was dropped for the Edinburgh game a few weeks before, had to sit it out anyway because I was sick.
"I struggled through the Zebre game and then it was Leinster and things changed for all of us...
"I didn't think physically I was up to scratch and the level of intensity in training is high-octane stuff.
"All you're looking for is time off but if you take that time off, you won't get picked, that's the reality. I got a couple of days' rest leading into Glasgow but by then everything had changed…"
He still hasn't absorbed just how much it has; few have. But first some context, again related to the long road back to fitness in recent years when so many, even almost himself, had written off his professional future.
You mention Paul O'Connell's book 'The Battle' merely in the context of his mentor's envy at Ryan's outrageous GPS fitness scores as O'Connell was facing his own fitness fight.
"Your body is your business. You can wake up with a chest infection or anything.
"You become addicted to training, it's like a drug, you need to have it every week and I'm lucky to have that at the moment.
"But I missed out on it for a long time there and the reality is that was a sobering period of my life.
"The phone doesn't ring and the reality is that the show keeps going on without you. The world keeps spinning. So when you are in there now, I'm not nervous.
"I know the level of commitment I need from a physical and analytical point of view, and then I have an emotional response to it as well.
"You are fighting with yourself to be physically fit, and I know Paulie would be fairly intense, but there are so many uncontrollable things that might happen.
"I don't know, you wouldn't sleep if you started worrying about all the stuff that might happen. It's something I've learned in the last couple of years. You can't really worry about all that."
And so we return to Glasgow in Thomond Park, the culmination of a tragic week and yet the beginning of something else, less profound, of course, but ultimately healing for a community mired in grief.
"Death changes you," he says softly. "It gives you massive perspective. We're very lucky as Munster players, we're living the dream for so many people and it's a job to us.
"But what I have seen recently is just so many people coming together after such an awful event.
"A fella saying 'Jesus, I haven't gone to a game but it was great to catch up with an old friend.'
"Those sobering moments when death does occur, it makes you realise and see that those practical, simply enjoyable things in life don't cost you a lot.
"And from my perspective you just think, well, listen you've only one shot at making the most of things. It just reaffirms what we all should be doing in our lives to be honest."
Nothing is taken for granted any more; not his own, stellar form, nor that of a side who have won 11 of 12 matches and merely need to complete the expected victory today to return Munster to familiar European territory of old, a home quarter-final in spring.
"When you're talking about emotion, that is so intangible and if you are ever going to rely heavily on emotion, your performances will become pretty volatile. What motivates you is different to what motivates me.
"The coaches have all put structures in place which have strong foundations and they were there all along this season. And it's up to each player to bring their ambition to it.
"We're still learning, we're still on edge, we know how quickly things can turn in this game. We've a small enough squad. If we get injuries to two or three key guys, we'd be in trouble, that's the reality.
"To be fair, the last couple of years were frustrating. Everybody wanted to win and perform well and it just wasn't happening with injuries and other things. Maybe trying too hard.
"Things don't go your way and it's a vicious cycle. You lose momentum even though the effort is the same. We've the same players. In our job, a year is probably worth six or seven in a normal job.
"Some of them realise they're not just in here to just fit in to fulfil a position, they have to offer a whole lot more responsibility to perform and there is a lot more at stake.
"We knew it was coming this season, Axel knew it. He told me one day, 'We're on the edge of it here'. It was coming.
"It's so disappointing that he isn't here to experience what is going on at the moment."
Which is why Ryan, for this and many other reasons, appreciates it so deeply.
So when he says, even mockingly, "I'm grand," well, it's probably because he knows he is. Sometimes that is much more than enough.

The Music Hall of the Andrew Carnegie Free Library opened to the public on May 10, 1901, nine days after the opening of the Library. The Carnegie Men's Glee Club presented a concert on that day. A similar local organization, the Carnegie Civic Chorale, continues to provide musical concerts in the Music Hall, from time-to-time.
Andrew Carnegie, accompanied by noted educator, astronomer, and optician John A. Brashear, travelled to Carnegie, Pennsylvania by leased streetcar to dedicate the Andrew Carnegie Free Library and Music Hall on April 22, 1902. During the dedication ceremony, Andrew Carnegie provided another gift to the institution: a new stage curtain which included a painting of Skibo Castle, Mr. Carnegie's Scottish home. A re-creation of this historic stage curtain, donated by First Carnegie Deposit Bank, Skibo Banc Shares M.H.C., and Stage 62, was dedicated on July 18, 1997, during that evening's performance of the Stage 62 production of the musical, Pippin.
The Music Hall of the Andrew Carnegie Free Library is patterned after Carnegie Hall in New York City. Hence, our Music Hall is accoustically-perfect for musical concerts. In fact, each year the Music Hall is rented to musical groups, such as the Tsar Lazar Men's Choir(August and September of 1999)--not for concerts, but for the production of musical recordings on Compact Disk!
The Music Hall, which includes a balcony level, has 788 seats(originally 800 seats). These beautiful mahogany seats, original to the Music Hall, include a wire frame directly under the seat, where a gentleman could store his top hat during a performance.
In addition to the Carnegie Civic Chorale, the Music Hall is the home to three other non-profit, resident performing arts organizations. Stage 62 provides four plays per year in the Music Hall; this includes a musical and an annual play for children. The Pittsburgh Savoyards, the oldest theatrical troupe in Western Pennsylvania(60+ years-old) usually performs two plays per year; the Savoyards specialize in Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, but perform other plays from time-to-time.
The Carnegie Performing Arts Center, a non-profit dance and drama school, performs three dance recitals in the Music Hall, each year. Begun in 1978 as the Carnegie Ballet Company, and later known as the Chartiers Valley Arts Council Ballet School and Dance Company, the organization has operated under their current name since March of 1995. In addition to performing in the Music Hall, The Carnegie Performing Arts Center leases the Library's gymnasium, on the lower level of the Library building, as their dance studio.

Inter Map
The Inter Map is a system for defining links between Wiki Wiki Web sites that was first developed by UseMod:UseModWiki and Meatball:MeatballWiki. Inter Map links have the form
MapPrefix:Page, where the host prefix is converted to a partial URL based on entries in the site's intermap.txt and localmap.txt files.
The default intermap.txt distributed with Pm Wiki includes the following Inter Map entries:
PmWiki: http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/ Cookbook: http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/ Wiki: http://www.c2.com/cgi/wiki? UseMod: http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl? Meatball: http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl? Wikipedia: http://www.wikipedia.com/wiki/ PITS: http://www.pmwiki.org/PITS/ Path:
The local localmap.txt defines the following extra entries:

Following the success of Donald Trump and his "America First" platform, the great political issue of the day has become the conflict between nationalism and globalism. This conflict is not limited to the United States, as can be seen from the Brexit vote in the UK and the continued growth of nationalist movements around the world. Christians must make a thorough investigation of the issue and decide where God wants us to stand.
Although the mainstream media has only begun covering the conflict recently, the friction between nationalism and globalism has been growing for years. On the side of the globalists we find the United Nations, the Democrat Party, many of the major Republican donors and Washington insiders, Marxist intellectuals, radical environmentalists, big-government socialists, all of the major newspapers, all of the major TV networks, and all of the Hollywood liberals. On the side of the nationalists we find the mass of Republican voters, constitutionalists, patriots, and small business owners. Given the groups that support the globalist cause, one would think that picking sides in this conflict would be easy choice for conservative Christians.
But this clear-cut decision has been unnecessarily confused by misguided Christians who think that Biblical religion can somehow join forces with the modern day globalist Babel that is seeking to bring about a totalitarian, secular order. Much of the confusion surrounding globalism and nationalism comes from a misunderstanding of key terms and concepts. By analyzing these terms and by looking at what the Bible says about politics we can find an answer to this pressing question.
The first key term to understand is "nationalism." In the context of the current struggle between nationalism and globalism, nationalism simply means a belief that separate nations should exist as sovereign, independent cultural and political units. Globalists both within the Church and in the mainstream media frequently repeat the lie that nationalism is somehow inherently based on "hatred" or "aggression," or that nationalism will inevitably lead to war, but this is not the case. Indeed, the historical record is full of atrocities and genocides committed by the followers of globalist ideologies such as Communism and Islam. Furthermore, nationalists believe that national sovereignty grants all men the greatest possible share of personal fulfillment and prosperity. Nationalism is the necessary corollary of the traditional American belief in independence, federated authority and self-sufficiency. Bringing individuals under the consolidated rule of distant, meddling bureaucrats does not promote prosperity on the national level, and it certainly does not work any better on the international level.
The next term to look at is "globalism." Globalism is the belief that it is always a good thing to erode national sovereignty and cultural distinctions. Those who favor globalism cheer every new power that the United Nations or European Union assume for themselves. They cheer every new "global warming" treaty that removes autonomy from individuals and small businesses. They cheer every new form of political correctness that turns conservative Christians into thought criminals. They have an unwavering faith in the idea that adding more regulations, more bureaucracy, and more standardization can only result in greater happiness for mankind.
When approaching the nationalist/globalist conflict from a Christian perspective, we must first consider carefully what type of globalist order is being built. It should be obvious to even the most casual observer that the chief proponents and financial backers of the new globalist system are extremely hostile towards Christianity. There can be no serious doubt that if the globalist system continues on its current trajectory, we will be living under a thoroughly anti-Christian order.

First posted January 28th, 2012:
One of the most important aspects of parenting is talking about what your child sees, hears, experiences at school, church, home, at the store, wherever. It might surprise you what your child is learning (or assuming) based on his or her experiences. When we open up conversations with our children, we give them a chance to process their thoughts and assumptions and help them file those in appropriate and real places for future use. We can ask them open ended, direct questions to help the conversations get started. I was taught that you can't give up on a conversation with a young person until after you have asked five questions.
Start with questions like: What was a highlight in your day today? Did anything happen today that made you uncomfortable or frustrated? What do you think will happen next in the movie? Who is one of your favorite friends right now? What do you like about him/her? What is your favorite thing to play in your room? Those kind of questions will give you a window into your child's thoughts, emotions and processing. It will also help you know what to be praying for and what to pursue more in an intentional training time another day.
Christians often compare their relationship with Christ to a relationship with a friend. You must be intentional in spending time with Him to know Him by reading His Word and talking to Him, like calling a friend and setting up times to be together. The same goes in building a relationship with your child. You must spend intentional time talking to your child to know him/her and learn to read when there is more behind their answers. Pray for God to give you insight into timing, but start soon! Don't waste any time getting to know the child God has called you to disciple, train and love. You can't imagine how much you have to learn from that little one about your Creator and His intentional relationship building with you, too!

Building a strong foundation for BPM software through Open Source
In preparation for the our week long webinar event, BPM Open House, PEX Network Editor, Craig Sharp, spoke to Miguel Valdês Faura, CEO and co-founder of Bonitasoft about the company's open source strategy and the importance of an open source culture in spreading the good word of BPM.
Craig Sharp: I wanted to start the interview by finding out a little bit about you. I understand you have quite an interesting backstory, your entry into the industry, so if you could tell us a little bit about where you began your career in BPM?
Miguel Valdês Faura: Of course. It was actually my first job after university. That was back in 2000 and at that time I decided to leave my country of origin, Spain, and the city of Barcelona, to move north to France.
My first job was in a research lab called Inria, where I was working with a team of researchers on technologies and different ways you can improve collaboration between people, and BPM started to be really close to me. So in this team the technology for collaboration that we created and implemented is what we today promote and deliver as part of Bonita BPM, so everything started in 2000 in this research lab.
Craig Sharp: How did the concept for the open source platform come about?
Miguel Valdês Faura: As I mentioned, we were looking for new ways to improve our collaboration inside companies and this is also all about processes, so we were looking to a new technology to improve this collaboration. So this is the beginning of the story of Bonita, I was developing this technology and I decided to push really hard on using open source as a way to promote this technology. So this is how everything started.
Craig Sharp: And how did the company, Bonitasoft, come about?
Miguel Valdês Faura: That happened later on, in 2009. Why we had to wait that long is that we wanted to be sure we really understood the market. We had the chance to work, not only on a research lab, but also on the industry. We actually transferred the technology from this research lab to one major system integrator in France -- Bull -- and we were implementing projects in different industries ranging from aeronautics to banking to insurance with Bonita BPM, but also with other technologies in the BPM space. We decided to wait until we were sure that we first had the knowledge of the technology ready to go, a community of people already using it worldwide, concrete implementations and a really good knowledge of our competition, who was doing it. So when we had all that, we thought that we were ready to create what is today this international company called Bonitasoft. That was in 2009.
Craig Sharp: So it was important to you that a strong foundation was built first for the company?
Miguel Valdês Faura: Exactly. And, I think that when we look to the other success stories in open source, with open source business models, most of them started that way. First, you see people that were really involved in a market and they see something that needs to be improved, so they start working on a technology. Then they open this technology to other people that are going to contribute, and most of the successful open source technologies, starting from Linux and ending with, for example, Talend recently. Everything started with people that really know a market segment and want to supply some innovation and then they open this innovation to others. So that's exactly what we did.
Craig Sharp: You've mentioned open source; of course open source is a key selling point of Bonita BPM. Why do you feel so strongly, though, that open source BPM solutions are important?
Miguel Valdês Faura: I think open source plays a key role in democratizing and making technologies more accessible in any enterprise software market. So that happened in any other market like BI, ESB market, portal market, document management, CRM. In all those markets we've seen how strong open source companies are behind them, and I think that that's exactly what we started in 2009 with Bonitasoft. We wanted to democratize the market. We wanted to bring it to a mature but a little bit closed market dominated by big vendors, targeting a small number of projects in organizations, to have more people adopting it from small organizations to big organizations, but different departments in big organizations as well, and so to make this technology more accessible, I think that's what open source in the enterprise market is bringing. So, it's expanding the market opportunity by having more people using your software. Of course it is also driving innovation, because to make that happen, the software needs to be easier to use than traditional software, it needs to also bring results really fast, but at the same time it's scalable to be sure that you can target mission critical deployment in Fortune 500 companies. So that's the idea about everything that we did at Bonitasoft and I think that this is a valid statement for any enterprise software market.
Craig Sharp: Okay, thank you. Finally, Miguel, I wanted to ask you, what do you feel are the key reasons that a business should adopt a BPM platform?
Miguel Valdês Faura: It depends on the maturity of every company, but most companies start with [one department], because they feel a need for automated process in the organization in only one department and of course automating those processes, it's one of the key targets of a BPM solution. Then we see people that are a little bit more mature, that they want to not only automate those processes but build new services, build new business applications and improve overall the operational performance of their company or one department or one division. But at the end of the day -- and this is a key metric that we are pushing from the very beginning at Bonitasoft -- people are on a daily basis building new business applications, and there are two ways to build those business applications: Either you hardcode and you do custom code those applications using your favorite language, or you decide to use a BPM solution in which you put all the business logic in process and then you build applications that are going to be easier to maintain. I would say that, again, it depends. Automating processes, gaining an operational efficiency and performance but, again, I think that the opportunity is definitely bigger. That's what we have seen in the last couple of years, because any company that needs at some point to create a new business application or improve an existing application will leverage or would see the benefit of using a BPM solution.
Craig Sharp: Thank you. There's one final question I want to ask it's unplanned, but I feel it's quite relevant to our conversation. There are a number of BPM solutions out there. Business process management is a complex topic at the best of times. Given the number of different software solutions that are out there, the different business models that they follow, the different services that they offer, it can be quite daunting for some people starting on this process. What do you feel are the first steps in a BPM journey to adopting a platform?
Miguel Valdês Faura: The best way to start is to think about a first process that you want to improve or a new service that you want to create because it's missing in the organization, and that this is going to be the most complex one to implement but it's going to bring immediate results. So sometimes, most of the BPM vendors say it as well: OK, you review the scope and start by something really simple. I would say start by something really simple but that has a really big impact in the organization. So, for example, if something is not working well in your human resources department -- and this is a major problem for you starting from the CEO to any one of the managers in the organization. If this is really a pain for you, start with this one. It's not a mission-critical project for your business, but it's going to bring immediate results. So that will be my suggestion. Start with something that is small, but at the same time can have a big impact as soon as you address it.

From the Horse's Mouth: This is What Consumers Want From You (VIDEO)
Do you know what consumers want from a real estate agent? Sure, you might have a pretty good idea — but why not take it from them?
Mike Reff, broker-associate at Madison & Company Properties in Denver, wanted his team, The Knoll Team, to hear directly from consumers about what their needs are. They were already producing a Web video series, so they decided to hit the streets with their camera and microphone, and ask people point blank: What do you want from your agent?
"We always want to find out as much as we can from the public, our customers," Reff says of his team. "We felt that the only way to strive to provide the best possible service as real estate professionals is just to ask the public what they want. So that's what we did."
Once he was out there doing man-on-the-street interviews, Reff says he was surprised by the variety of answers he got from consumers on the question of what they want from their agents. "It just really goes to show that no two clients are the same," he adds. "Everyone has their own unique expectations and desires for what they want from a practitioner. We expected the standard 'good communication, looking out for our best interest,' but I think we were pleased to see some people touch on the relationship aspect.
"The biggest takeaway for anyone who watches the video is really to know your customers," Reff says. "Know what they want. There is no standard that will work across the board. As real estate professionals, we have to adapt to our clients' needs."
Check out the video below.
Because of my present situation, I would stress an agent to know the residents surrounding the home for sale. After moving here I discovered there were a lot of rentals in the area. People move in and out , and don't seem to "upkeep" on the rental, they're renting. Many of the home owners just collect the rent each month, and don't seem to have much contact with the renters. Also the agent should make future clients aware of trains using tracks close by, and probably airports too. I would definitely investigate and area thoroughly before buying again.
To Patricia, each state has rules and regulations on what a real estate agent can share re: a neighborhood. They can get into a lot of trouble…however, they can say…."due diligence" go to the local police station in the area you are seeking to buy, and ask questions….buyer beware….A home is one if not the biggest monetary investment you make and have. I believe in the relationship part. As an agent I put the relationship first and formost. Karen-Cape Cod MA
What do we as Realtors want from consumers? Loyalty.
Communication is the #1 reason why consumers work with an agent. Communication is also the #1 reason why consumers won't work with an agent. Successful Realtors need to be tech savy as well…didn't hear anyone mention that.

This project will build 3 Child Day Care Centers to benefit 90-100 young children age 2-5 in Yolanda hit areas in the Phil. A Day Care Center is a pre-school barangay-based facility that ensures total development and protection of children through mental and intellectual simulation exercises, supervised recreation, games, and supplemental feeding with balance nutritious food 5 days a week in six months period.
Thousands of young children in Yolanda hit communities have been deprived of the basic physical and mental development support that a Day Care Center have been providing. If a Day Care Center in the barangay is present and functional, in the midst of hardships brought by the typhoon, the young children in the community can continue to progress their mental, psychological, and physical development through regular classroom activities, play with other children, and be able to eat nutritious foods.
This project will provide the Day Care Facility where kids will enjoy the regular activities in the center such as supplemental feeding 5 days a week, practicing mental abilities through learning exercises by a Day Care Worker, and be able to interact and play with fellow kids. This project will help the poor parents who are currently experiencing economic difficulties in providing the vital attention for their young children.
Young children are always at risk because they don't have the capacity and ability to survive by their own means during disasters. They always need the vital support for them to be able to survive. The long term impact of this project is that the young children that are benefited by this project will be able to stay and feel the normal lives that they had before the typhoon hit their communities that will lead them to a better future that they dreamed of.

Sansei Seafood Restaurant (Hawaii 2018): Sensational Seafood with a Sunset
Sansei Seafood Restaurant has been one of our favourite restaurants in Waikiki for a few years. Located on the 3rd floor of the Waikiki Beach Marriot, it a great place to enjoy the sunset – mind you, the palm trees have grown a bit over the years so the view is more obstructed now. Still, the food here is great and they offer 25% off certain items before 6pm.

Eggs 'n Things Waikiki Beach Eggspress (Hawaii 2018): Breakfast with a View
I think I've forgotten how many times we've dined at Eggs 'n Things over the years. From the moment we first tried their pancakes topped with a mountain of whipped cream, we've been hooked. That being said, we like trying new restaurants so we haven't been making a point to revisit on each trip to Hawaii (although we did visit an Eggs 'n Things when we went to Japan last year).

Kamehameha Bakery (Hawaii 2018): Poi Haupia Donut
We first came across the legendary Poi Glazed Donut from Kamehameha Bakery in 2017.

Unfortunately, by the time we arrived (just after noon), they were already sold out of their poi glazed donuts! 😦

Young's Fish Market (Hawaii 2018): Traditional Hawaiian Food
There's nothing like good old fashioned Hawaiian food to comfort a hungry tummy.

This counter-service establishment is located in the same industrial-looking mini mall as Kamehameha Bakery and gets quite busy.

Olay's Thai Food Express (Hawaii 2018): Honolulu Farmers' Market
The original purpose of our visit to the Honolulu Farmers' Market (located in front of Blaisdell Concert Hall) was to get some yummy butter mochi cupcakes from Mochi Lab. However, we knew that we'd be hungry for something more substantial. Fortunately, there's a ton of food stands here… one of which is Olay's Thai Food Express.

Mochi Lab (Hawaii 2018): Butter Mochi Cupcakes
It's hard to believe that I first stumbled across Mochi Lab's amazing butter mochi cupcakes in 2015 while walking through a farmers' market in Waikiki. While we've been back to Hawaii a couple times since then, we've never been able to revisit until this past year. That's partly because Mochi Lab can only be found at pop up locations. We made a special trip out to the Honolulu Farmers' Market, in front of the Blaisdell Concert Hall on Ward Avenue, to revisit this year and were not disappointed.

If you're looking for more traditional Hawaiian dishes in Waikiki, you'll probably want to head over to one of the many small hole-in-the-wall places which serves up meaty and filling meals fit for a king. One such famous place in Waikiki was Ono Hawaiian Foods which we had the chance to visit back in 2015. Since our last visit, it seemed like the old kitschy Ono Hawaiian Foods had closed down but has been reinvented into the new Da Ono Hawaiian Foods.

We've all heard stories of, and have probably even witnessed, inappropriate workplace behavior. There's the guy who flirts excessively with the bosses' wife at the company party; the woman who dresses for the office like she's going clubbing; and the boss who demeans his or her employees in front of co-workers and other staff.
With the addition of social media, there's now even more potential for behaving badly enough to be fired or never hired. For example, there's bad-mouthing an employer on Twitter; posting sexually explicit photos on MySpace; and bragging on Facebook about the excellent day you enjoyed, after having called in sick to work.
"Whether you're job hunting or gainfully employed, inappropriate behavior can be a deal-breaker," says Pamela Eyring, president of The Protocol School of Washington (PSOW). "And what you say and do online is just as important as what you say and do in the workplace."
PSOW is sponsoring the 4th annual National Business Etiquette Week June 1-7, offering tips and advice to help professionals recognize and combat bad behavior and act more professionally. Here are some facts and tips provided by PSOW to keep in mind.
Top 5 Social Media Myths:
1. Facebook is personal. In fact, Facebook is now used by businesses from solo shops to the Fortune 50.
2. Facebook is private. Default privacy settings are minimal. (Although one can select privacy settings manually, most people don't.)
3. Only my followers read my Twitter posts. Think about this. The Library of Congress has started collecting Twitter posts as a way to record history.
4. Recruiters don't look at MySpace or YouTube. Research shows that 86 percent of recruiters look at social media sites to learn more about job applicants and 44 percent don't hire applicants based on their findings.
5. My Facebook profile and pictures can be deleted. Actually, even deactivated content remains on Facebook's server.
Top 5 Most Hated Business Behaviors Internationally:
1. Using swear words (79 percent)
2. Arriving at work and not acknowledging fellow workmates (77 percent)
3. Speaking loudly across the room (66 percent)
4. Not offering guests a beverage (51 percent)
5. Taking calls on speakerphone (47 percent)
Top 5 Business Etiquette Mistakes & How to Correct Them
1. Unprofessional office attire. One should dress two levels above his or her position.
2. Improper handshake. Use a firm grip.
3. Poor eye contact. Make eye contact 40 to 60 percent of the time in between the eyebrows.
4. Poor dining skills. When in doubt, watch the host.
5. Cell phone rudeness. Keep phones on vibrate and use your library voice.

The IFA channel will dominate distribution in the early years of a
depolarised environment but will lose market share to bancassurers and
e-commerce over time, a new survey suggests.
IFAs are the preferred advice channel for 41 per cent of higher-earning UK
adults, with another 13 per cent saying they would approach a multi-tied
adviser and 22 per cent saying they would consult their bank on its product
range, according to the Mori survey for IBM.
The survey gives a ringing endorsement for face-to-face advice from 80 per
cent of respondents while only 9 per cent would want to receive advice from
a qualified adviser based on a phone call.
But the research sounds a warning for the future with 13 per cent of
30-44-year-olds prepared to get advice on the web compared with just 2 per
cent in the 55-plus age group.
The research suggests bancassurers will do well under the twin effects of
depolarisation and new technology.
Mori questioned 435 adults aged 30 or over with an annual income of
£25,000 or more.
IBM global services insurance principal David Taylor says: "The warning
sign is that those under-45s, who should be tomorrow's IFA client, are not
as loyal. But if I was a bank at the moment I would be rubbing my hands
with glee and chasing the FSA on polarisation."
Berry Birch & Noble group marketing director Stephen Ingledew says: "When
people get to a complicated situation in life, it is so complex that they
will want to go and get advice."

Gala Café
Time Out says
They don't just serve the same old Horlicks and Ovaltines here, they serve these staple drinks as icy milkshakes. No cha chaan teng would ever dream of not having eggs on the menu, and this one is no exception with their extraordinarily thick scrambled egg sandwiches; getting your mouth round one will be a hot mess. If eggs aren't your thing, try the freshly deep-fried wonton served with sweet chili sauce. $60.
