Parents have been left outraged after a primary school play cast doubt on whether Santa Claus is real.Some scenes in the festive show featured adults dressing up as Father Christmas, sparking confusion among children.It prompted a number of complaints and led to some of the scenes being changed following a crunch teachers meeting at the school in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex. Anger: Parents are outraged after a primary school play cast doubt on whether Santa is real
Controversy: Pictured left is a song from the Christmas play, and right, the head William HillSome parents even claimed that there were songs that cast doubt on the existence of Santa but this has been denied by the school.One father, whose four-year-old daughter attends Prince Avenue Primary School, was appalled.He said: 'Thankfully my daughter hasn't said anything about it yet, but another parent said that while they were Christmas shopping, their child asked if Father Christmas was real.
'I was taking it off charge when it exploded like a BOMB':...
Someone's got good taste in shoes! The hilarious moment a...
Getting into the holiday spirits then guys? Floods of office...
'It broke the parent's heart to hear their child ask that.'My daughter will hear the children singing the songs about him not existing. It is not acceptable that they are performing this play.'I am disgusted.'Another said: 'The school is telling the children that Father Christmas isn't real. That's not acceptable. The school can't do that.'A third added: 'It is a horrible situation. Christmas should be a magical time for children, it's not right this is being suggested.' School: One father, whose four-year-old daughter attends Prince Avenue Primary School, in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex (pictured) was appalled at the scenes on the festive playBut headteacher William Hill claimed only a few parents had complained and said the play raises an important message about the festive period.It is about two spoiled children who expect to get everything they want for Christmas, and will be witnessed by hundreds of children as young as nursery age. Mr Hill said: 'The play does not say that Father Christmas does not exist. 'It is about the true meaning of Christmas which is an important message for children as it has become very commercialised.'We have 420 children at the school and only a small number of parents are unhappy.'I have shown the script to other parents and they did not see any problems with it.'

Life After Jerusalem: Oh Look. I'm Stupid Again
Posted by Digger at 1:24 PM
You are NOT stupid! This sort of training is like a physical workout. No pain, no gain. This is the hard bit, where your brain cells are being stretched to the limit and are, naturally, sore and feeling weak. Give it a day or so and you'll be jumping verbs, lifting heavy vocab, and running an extra case in record time. Rest your brain a bit and put ice on the sore bits (or just go outside.. from what I'm seeing on the news, that should be close enough) and you'll be recovered in no time. (Is that reassuring and pseudo-scientific enough?)
You'll be happy with the Merrells. And your Estonian again. At some point.
Hey at least this post title made me laugh. :)
The B Files and I are hoping to organize a local FS blogger meetup, so we're getting together for lunch tomorrow (1/25) at FSI from 11:30-12:30 to hatch a plan. If you're available and interested, please join us. We're planning to meet at a table by the windows near the front entrance side of the dining room. Please feel free to publicize to others who might want to join us--all are welcome.
Whoops, I meant Wednesday, 1/26!
@Lisa, Wednesday is great! I get done with class at 11:30 on Wednesday, so count me in!
@ Erin, I hope so. I am on my second pair of Merrells...just walking shoes, but they are really comfortable! So I hope that translates to snow boots!
@Connie, I took a walk with the dog and so we'll see if that helped me enough to get my five tons of homework done!
I agree with Erin, Merrells are awesome. They are pretty much all I wore when we were in Iceland. Stylish, but good traction!

This sounds like a very exciting time in your life, indeed. It will be interesting to see (read?) how it all unfolds...

Drift, baby, drift. :) If you feel it and you're flowing, then it's the right direction. I also take the accidents as a sign, too. It's like you're working the rest of the jitters, uncertainties, chitta vritti, and hold-you-backs out so you can be present for this new beginning. :)

Enterprise hire cars in Honolulu from $48/day - KAYAK
$52/day Intermediate • 5 Adults • 3 Bags
$56/day Standard • 5 Adults • 3 Bags
$56/day Full-size • 5 Adults • 2 Bags
Pros: I booked early & got a great rate also a nice upgrade
Cons: I was led to believe that the car was available at the airport - it was not
Pros: The guy who met us to show us the car was Great! Everybody else kinda had an attitude an wasn't very helpful.
Pros: Customer service and the amazing shuttle drivers.
Cons: Shuttle wait and interior of vehicle was stained and floor carpet was ripped on drivers side.
Cons: I have ling had a membership with Enterprise so they are my default for normally quick courteous service in other cities. Rented "Special" which turned out to be Jeep Wrangler. Smelled like BO and very scrapped up and icky to say the least. Customer Service seemed not to care. Finding the return was stressful as it is not with other returns and the one ways and awkward roads made GPS difficult to follow. I've rented from them previously and had mediocre experiences each time. Will look for other vendors in the new rental facilities rather than deal with Enterprise in HA.
Rental great experience
Pros: I love enterprise always a great experience wouldn't expect anything less
Cons: Finding the place my gps was horrible in Hawaii
Pros: We had a vehicle to get around Oahu.
Cons: We were under the impression that the pickup and drop off of the vehicle was very close to the airport. When we arrived we had to go into Honolulu to get our vehicle. It added an extra hour both ways that we hadn't planned for on arrival and needed to make sure we planned for when departing. The pick up and drop off were not very convenient.
Pros: The car was incredible. They upgraded us to a truck, which turned out to be perfect for the North Shore. The staff was very helpful when they realized that we had booked through priceline/kayak. They were also frustrated because apparently this happens a lot.
Cons: My big problem is with priceline/kayak. I booked through this service and checked the pick up location: Honolulu. Fun fact: There are 3 Honolulu Enterprise locations and they do not provide transportation from the airport to two of those locations. We got to the airport Enterprise and the staff was nice when they saw my panicked look because they said they didn't have my reservation and no extra cars to rent. They called us a cab to get us to the other location, but it was over $30 to get the cab to the other location and then we had to pay another $30 to be able to drop it off at the airport Enterprise. When we were dropping off our car, another customer was having the exact same issue.
Pros: Pick up and drop off was a breeze. The staff was awesome and super helpful! It was a great car and I got it for a great rate! Mahalo!
Pros: I only rent from Enterprise. Car was clean, ready when I got there and couldn't have been easier on return, when rushing to the airport.
Cons: I wanted the smallest economy car but had to settle for a larger vehicle. I prefer smaller for ease of parking and also gas mileage. Also, the car had lots of bird poop on it!
Pros: Trick you with prices, will not match their website price. I was told I can get the online price if I book it only on line. So I had to go to enterprise website, reserve the car and provide the booking number all while I am standing in front of the agent!!!!! Bad location and employee for otherwise good company else where in the land Usa
Cons: I had to pay triple the price for the same car that was by Kayak and enterprise mistake reserved 15 miles away from the airport. Workers were very rude! After multiple discussions they agreed to rent me a car at the airport for triple the price !!! Which was also higher than their website and refused to match the price. Overall will not use kayak or enterprise again
Pros: Car was okay. But they really push the insurance as if our own car insurance does not cover. And they don't pick you up or drop you off if from airport or back thoughbtjwybsay they pick you up. And pick up and drop off is only within a mile radius approximately.
Pros: The agent informed me of am additional place to return my rental
Pros: Incredibly friendly staff; definitely felt the Aloha!
Pros: Very inexpensive rates + pickup and drop off at an off airport location. Never had a bad experience with enterprise.
Pros: Easy, quick professional service! Vehicle was clean, great shuttle service too.
Pros: We valued the upgrade, thank you.
Cons: The image of the car when booking is a convertible chev 200 - clearly it is not this car on offer but it is misleading.
Pros: Agent Katelyn (sp?) was kind enough to offer me a better rate since the rates had dropped after making my reservation. Never had that happen before and I was extremely grateful. Her service was excellent and returning the car was also a pleasant experience.
Pros: Once again Enterprise provided great customer service, fast check-in and a clean, brand new car.
Cons: The car was disgustingly dirty and had a horrible smell that got worse everyday. That would be my only complaint though, everything else was very good!
Cons: I booked the rental online, but when I arrived at the pick up location, it was closed and I had to find a last minute replacement with another company. The online booking system should take into account when certain offices are closed.
Pros: Customer service was wonderful right at 7:00AM. They didn't keep asking us to buy extra insurance and there were no hidden charges. The car we had was great with only 600 miles.
Pros: Nice car, good service
Cons: Car was dirty, not cheap

Jessica Says: November 24, 2008 at 9:24 am e
First, incredible give away! That is just adorable!
Some holiday traditions of mine: opening gifts Christmas eve, having Prime Rib for Christmas eve dinner, and I have the coolest handmade felt applique Christmas stocking that I love seeing each year jessica*bree
Jessica, you are the new owner of the 25 Days of Christmas album in the below post. And, since you are local and my friend, I’m happy to deliver it to you in person.
And before I go, I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! May your day be filled with family, good friends, good food, good times…
A Little Something for Busy Scrappers…
Filed under: Mini Albums — Kathi @ 8:19 am Yesterday I showed you my 25 Days of Christmas album. Well, after I created the album, I still had half sheets of all the papers I used. So I thought for a minute and said to myself, “I’ll just make another album and give it away as a RAK on my blog.” That’s exactly what I did. I already had all of the supplies out, so I was able to create this album quickly. The covers are black mat board. And I’m calling it 97% Complete – why? You’ll need to add numbers to the pages, but I suspect you have a lot of numbers in your American Crafts Thickers just like I do. You’ll also need to supply your own 2″ binder rings. If I happen to get out and buy mine before I mail this album off, I’ll supply them. The rings shown are not included and they are too small anyway.
So, what are you getting. A 6×8 album complete with 25 pages including transparent pages, trading card page protector, a bingo card, embossed felt, an envelope – refer to my post below to see details. Yes, I even hand cut some of the pages in shapes. I’m also throwing in some Making Memories die cuts and tags, American Crafts ribbon for the binder rings, and some numbers cut from Making Memories pattern paper. I used a few of the numbers in my album as well.
So what do you have to do to receive this album? Of course, commit to taking photos every day starting December 1 through December 25. Because if you win this RAK, you’ll want to actually finish this album, right? And, oh yeah, leave me a comment and tell me about a holiday tradition of yours. If it’s your first time leaving me a comment, I have to approve it – but no worries, it will show up eventually.
I’ll mail this to any winner in the USA. I’ll choose a random winner from comments left on this post on Thursday, Nov 27, in the AM EST. And I’d like to get this in the mail on Friday or Saturday, so be sure to check back to see if you win.
Updated: Canadian ladies – I don’t know how much shipping is to Canada, but if it’s not too much more I’m happy to do it.
Filed under: Mini Albums — Kathi @ 8:15 am I decided to play along with Ali Edwards’ December Daily this year. I started my 25 Days of Christmas album last weekend and added a couple of pages to it every day last week and now the album is assembled and waiting for me to start taking daily photos on December 1. I admit – it felt really good to use up some supplies, especially all those numbers that come with the American Crafts Thickers. So, everything used to create this album already existed in my stash and I didn’t have to purchase a thing. Well, I will need to get some 2″ binder rings – the blue ones below are just temporary since they are just barely large enough now.
Covers: The front and back covers of this album are 6×8 canvas board that I purchased at Michael’s (3/pkg.) awhile ago with the intent of using them as album covers. I had purchased Tattered Angels decorative screens and Glimmer Mist (Robin’s Egg, Burnt Red) from ScrapbookDreamer.com with no special project in mind and it felt good to use them for this project. After temporarily adhering the screen, I applied Glimmer Mist in Robin’s Egg all over. I then applied the Burnt Red to the lower right corner over the screen. I let it dry for a minute and then blended with a slightly damp paper towel. I love the shabby faded look. The alphas are American Crafts Glitter Chipboard Thickers in Lax, the sticker is Creative Imaginations, and the round tag is from Denise L. Designs. I had no problem punching holes through the canvas board with my Crop-A-Dile.
The inside of the front and back covers is covered with paper from Webster’s Pages. Page 1: I used a piece of Making Memories 8×8 die cut paper as a template to cut this page. Three Bugs in a Rug paper; Making Memories die cut; American Crafts Foam Thickers in Cream Soda.

OK, that took a while to photograph and post. I can’t wait to start taking photos on December 1. I know this will be an album that I love when it’s done.
Filed under: Mini Albums — Kathi @ 5:37 pm I worked on this mini album last weekend @ Sweet Memories Scrapbooks where Laura, Jessica and I spent the day scrapping. I didn’t have an opportunity to photograph it until today – that’s the one bad thing about this time of year, I’m at work when it’s daylight during the week.
The album is a Maya Road tabbed chipboard album and I used papers from Basic Grey, SEI, Scenic Route, Autumn Leaves, and Sassafras Lass – all of which make me happy!
Just a few of the things that are making me happy right now.
Sweet Memories Scrapbooks ~ New LSS in Georgia
Filed under: Local Scrapbooking Fun — Kathi @ 11:24 am Yesterday was a great day – of course, I hung out with Laura and Jessica and we even did a little scrapping. Jessica and I met at Original Pancake House for breakfast (yum) and then headed out I-20 to meet Laura in Carrollton at Sweet Memories Scrapbooks for a day of scrapping goodness. Sweet Memories is a new scrapbook store in west Georgia that just opened in August and is owned by Erin and Carolyn Waters. The store is so cute and comfortable – nicely decorated, great product selection, and Carolyn took great care of us while we shopped and scrapped the day away.
Sweet Memories is a bit of a hike for me, but we all had such a great time that we are already planning future visits.
If you happen to be in the Carrollton, GA area or are even passing through, Sweet Memories Scrapbooks is definitely worth a stop. I think you’ll love it as much as I did.
Nov DT Reveal @ SCRaPDANGo.com
Filed under: ScrapDango.net — Kathi @ 7:17 am I had the pleasure of designing with the Spice kit this month – full of Collage Press Jackson Lodge and so many coordinating goodies.
And here are my layouts featuring some of my photos from Disney World in early October.
Virginia and her favorite Disney character:
My all-time favorite photo of my mom:
And the whole group @ Disney (me, Amanda, Krissy, Virginia, and Mara):
And, don’t forget that SCRaPDANGo.com offers two monthly kits. The Sugar kit this month is equally fantastic and features the Bella Blvd. Family Tree collection.
Yeah, I so had to have both kits this month!

UPDATE 1-Chilean regulators reject Albemarle's plans to boost lithium output - Reuters
November 13, 2018 / 9:57 PM / 6 months ago
SANTIAGO, Nov 13 (Reuters) - Chilean environmental regulators have rejected plans by Albemarle Corp, the world’s top lithium producer, to expand output from the Salar de Atacama salt flat, according to filings with Chile’s Environmental Assessment Service (SEA).
In September, Chile’s nuclear commission, which oversees the sales and export of lithium in Chile, denied Albemarle’s request for an additional increase to its production quota for the ultralight battery metal. The commission said Albemarle had failed to adequately explain how it would increase production without extracting more brine.

(1928-05-22)May 22, 1928
August 8, 1998(1998-08-08) (aged 70)
Biblical scholar, Catholic priest in Society of Saint-Sulpice
First tenured Catholic scholar at Union Theological Seminary
St. Mary's University, Baltimore
The Sensus Plenior of Sacred Scripture (1955)
Union Theological Seminary (UTS)
Raymond Edward Brown SS (May 22, 1928 – August 8, 1998) was an American Catholic priest, a member of the Sulpician Fathers and a prominent biblical scholar. He was regarded as a specialist concerning the hypothetical "Johannine community", which he speculated contributed to the authorship of the Gospel of John, and he also wrote influential studies on the birth and death of Jesus. Brown was professor emeritus at Union Theological Seminary (UTS) in New York where he taught for 29 years. He was the first Catholic professor to gain tenure there, where he earned a reputation as a superior lecturer.[1]
Brown was one of the first Catholic scholars to apply historical-critical analysis to the Bible. As biblical criticism developed in the 19th century, the Catholic Church opposed this scholarship and essentially forbade it in 1893. In 1943, however, the Church issued the papal encyclical Divino Afflante Spiritu, which authorised Catholic scholars to investigate the Bible historically.[2] Brown called this encyclical the "Magna Carta of biblical progress." The Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) further supported the method of higher criticism, which, Brown felt, vindicated his approach.
Brown remains controversial among traditionalist Catholics because of their claim that he denied the inerrancy of the whole of scripture and cast doubt on the historical accuracy of numerous articles of the Catholic faith.[3] Some traditionalists criticized his questioning of whether the virginal conception of Jesus could be proven historically.[1] He was regarded as occupying the center ground in the field of biblical studies,[4] opposing the literalism found among many fundamentalist Christians while not carrying his conclusions as far as many other scholars.
2.1 New Testament Christology
2.2 Gospel of John
4.3 as Editor
Born in New York City, the son of Robert H. and Loretta Brown, Raymond studied at the Catholic University of America where he received a bachelor's degree in 1948 and a Master of Arts degree in 1949 as a Basselin scholar. In 1951 he joined the scholarly Society of Saint-Sulpice following his reception of a Bachelor in Sacred Theology degree from St. Mary's Seminary in Baltimore, Maryland. In 1953 he was ordained a Catholic priest for the Diocese of St. Augustine, Florida. He earned the degree of Doctor of Sacred Theology from St. Mary's Seminary in 1955 and a second doctorate in Semitic languages in 1958 from The Johns Hopkins University, where one of his advisors was William F. Albright.[1]
Following his studies, Brown taught at his alma mater, St. Mary's Seminary, until 1971. During this period he was invited to work as a research fellow at the American Schools of Oriental Research in Jerusalem, where he worked on a concordance of the Dead Sea Scrolls. In 1963 he served as a peritus (expert adviser) to the Bishop of St. Augustine, Joseph P. Hurley, at the Second Vatican Council.[1]
Brown was appointed in 1972 to the Pontifical Biblical Commission and again in 1996. He was the Auburn Distinguished Professor of Biblical Studies at the Union Theological Seminary in New York City, where he taught from 1971 to 1990, when he retired with the title of Professor Emeritus. He served as the President of the Catholic Biblical Association, the Society of Biblical Literature (1976-7), and the Society of New Testament Studies (1986-7). Widely regarded as one of America's preeminent biblical scholars, Brown was awarded 24 honorary doctoral degrees by universities in the United States and Europe—many from Protestant institutions.[5][6]
Brown died at Saint Patrick's Seminary and University in Menlo Park, California. The Archbishop of Los Angeles, Cardinal Roger Mahony, hailed him as "the most distinguished and renowned Catholic biblical scholar to emerge in this country ever" and his death, the cardinal said, was "a great loss to the Church."[7]
Brown was one of the first Catholic scholars in the United States to use the historical-critical method to study the Bible.[8] In 1943, reversing the approach that had existed since Providentissimus Deus fifty years earlier, Pius XII's encyclical Divino afflante Spiritu expressed approval of historical-critical methods.[9] For Brown, this was a "Magna Carta for biblical progress."[10] In 1965, at the Second Vatican Council, the Church moved further in this direction, adopting the Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation Dei verbum, instead of the conservative schema "On the Sources of Revelation" that originally had been submitted. While it stated that Scripture teaches "solidly, faithfully and without error that truth which God wanted put into sacred writings for the sake of salvation,"[11] Brown points out the ambiguity of this statement, which opened the way for a new interpretation of inerrancy by shifting from a literal interpretation of the text towards a focus on "the extent to which it conforms to the salvific purpose of God." He saw this as the Church "turning the corner" on inerrancy, while adopting a face-saving wording: "the Roman Catholic Church does not change her official stance in a blunt way. Past statements are not rejected but are requoted with praise and then reinterpreted at the same time. ... What was really going on was an attempt gracefully to retain what was salvageable from the past and to move in a new direction at the same time."[12] While the document cited the two earlier encyclicals, it was clear to observers that much had changed. The Second Vatican Council, one scholar observed, “raised biblical exegesis from the status of second-class citizenship to which it had been reduced among Catholics by an overreaction to the Protestant claim for its autonomy.”[13]
New Testament Christology[edit]
In a detailed 1965 article in the journal Theological Studies[14] examining whether Jesus was ever called "God" in the New Testament, Brown concluded that "Even the fourth Gospel never portrays Jesus as saying specifically that he is God" and "there is no reason to think that Jesus was called God in the earliest layers of New Testament tradition." He argued that "Gradually, in the development of Christian thought God was understood to be a broader term. It was seen that God had revealed so much of Himself in Jesus that God had to be able to include both Father and Son."
Thirty years later, Brown revisited the issue in an introductory text for the general public, writing that in "three reasonably clear instances in the NT (Hebrews 1:8-9, John 1:1, 20:28) and in five instances that have probability, Jesus is called God," a usage Brown regarded as a natural development of early references to Jesus as "Lord".[15][16]
The Gospel of John is in two sections, which Brown labelled the "Book of Signs" and the "Book of Glory." The Book of Signs recounts Jesus' public miracles, which are called signs. The Book of Glory comprises Jesus' private teaching to his disciples, his crucifixion, and his resurrection.
Brown identified three layers of text in John: 1) an initial version Brown considers based on personal experience of Jesus; 2) a structured literary creation by the evangelist which draws upon additional sources; and 3) the edited version that readers know today (Brown 1979).
Brown has been described as “the premier Johannine scholar in the English-speaking world.”[17] Terrence T. Prendergast stated that “for nearly 40 years Father Brown caught the entire church up into the excitement and new possibilities of scriptural scholarship."[18] Much of Brown's work was given a nihil obstat and an imprimatur (the "nihil obstat" is a statement by an official reviewer, appointed by a bishop, that "nothing stands in the way" of a book being given an imprimatur; the "imprimatur," which must normally be issued by a bishop of the diocese of publication, is the official endorsement – "let it be printed" – that a book contains nothing damaging to Catholic faith and morals).[19] Brown was the expert appointed to review and provide the nihil obstat for The New Jerome Biblical Commentary, the standard basic reference book for Catholic Biblical studies, of which he was one of the editors and to which he himself contributed, as did dozens of other Catholic scholars.[20]
Joseph Ratzinger, later Pope Benedict XVI, who has argued that the infancy narratives and John’s Gospel are historically reliable,[21] was personally complimentary of Brown and his scholarship, and said that he "would be very happy if we had many exegetes like Father Brown".[22]
Brown's work was controversial among traditionalists who objected to the elements of his work that they regarded as casting doubt on the historical accuracy of numerous articles of the Catholic faith.[3] His critics included Lawrence Cardinal Shehan and Father Richard W. Gilsdorf, the latter of whom postulated that Brown's work was "a major contribution to the befogged wasteland of an 'American Church' progressively alienated from its divinely constituted center."[7]
Other writers, critical of historical Christian claims about Jesus, have criticized Brown for excessive caution, for what they saw as his unwillingness to acknowledge the radical implications of the critical methods he was using. Literary critic Frank Kermode, in his review of The Birth of the Messiah, accused Brown of being too eager to secure the imprimatur of the Catholic Church.[23] The Hebraic Jesus scholar Géza Vermes speaking of the Nativity narratives has described Brown's coverage as "the primary example of the position of having your cake and eating it."[24] In the NY Times obituary, Gustav Niebuhr wrote: "Father Brown was regarded as a centrist, with a reputation as a man of the church and a rigorous, exacting scholar whose work had to be reckoned with."[5]
Brown, Raymond E. (1955). The Sensus Plenior of Sacred Scripture (Ph.D.). Baltimore, MD: St. Mary's University. - This was his dissertation in partial fulfillment of his doctorate in Sacred Theology. Brown did much to define the term sensus plenior and had an enormous influence on the twentieth-century debate concerning the term.

Ceramics tell exotic tale of ancient trade, innovation - Chicago Tribune
Blake Gopnik, Washington PostCHICAGO TRIBUNE
If Scheherazade had added one more tale to her 1,001 Arabian Nights, it might have gone something like this:
During the reign of our great Caliph Harun al-Rashid, a loyal subject gave to him a gift of magnificent pottery, from the faraway court of the Emperor of China. It counted 20 cups and bowls, each one white as snow on blessed Mt. Sinai. "O, what beauty comes to us from distant lands," said the great man. And then, his brow darkening: "Our craftsmen without equal have been equaled, and indeed outdone, by these Chinese infidels."
Quaking at their lord's wrath, the famous potters of Basra set about unraveling the secrets of the foreign bowls. The wheelmen copied tricks the Chinese potters used to thin their vessels' walls. Other craftsmen played with minerals and metals until they had achieved a glaze as white as anything China's clays could yield.
But just as the snowy dishes were to enter the kiln, a master potter snatched up one, dipped a brush in a blue glaze of his own invention, and with a splendid flourish wrote the word "happiness" down the center of the plate.
The Caliph was pleased: "Strangers may have taught us to make our dishes white, and fine," he said. "But we have added the blue of the night sky that floats above the desert, and the language of the Prophet that came out of it. And now, for as long as Baghdad stands, the world will follow where our potters have led."
But of course Scheherazade could tell no such tale, since her storytelling stopped at the lucky number 1,001. The story we just heard comes to us instead care of Jessica Hallett, guest curator of the new exhibit "Iraq and China: Ceramics, Trade and Innovation," at the Smithsonian Institution's Arthur M. Sackler Gallery through April 24. And her yarn has the advantage of being as unfictional as she could make it.
In a modest suite of rooms, full of pots and plates and shards from all around the world, Hallett tells viewers of the birth of fine white stoneware in China, its export to Harun al-Rashid's Iraq around the year 800, its copying by Basra's potters, who added their newly invented cobalt-blue glaze to it, the re-export of the new blue-and-white technique to China, the reimporting of Chinese-made blue-and-white ware to the Muslim world, and then much later, in the 14th Century, the large-scale manufacture of blue-and-white dishes -- now in true porcelain -- by the Chinese themselves and eventually their wholesale export to all the foreigners who came in contact with them.
We start with a handful of rare white dishes made in the 9th Century in Northern China. They are as simple and gracious and refined as anything could be. They were soon imported in bulk by daring Muslim merchants, who were some of the first traders to make the three-year trip direct from Iraq to China and back, cutting out the Silk Road's many intermediaries.
Then the show gives us a sample of the first all-white imitations of them by Iraqi potters. The Iraqi copies never quite manage the delicacy of the originals: Arab potters didn't have the tough, all-white clays of their Chinese counterparts, so they used local clays that were softer and darker, then covered them with a dense, opaque white glaze. The Arab whiteware has an appealing sturdiness.
Cobalt-blue transformation
Once Iraqi potters began to add their own cobalt-blue detailing, the indigenous art form takes off. That "happiness" bowl uses calligraphy to energize an otherwise plain surface in the most astounding way. It was joined by bowls with flowers and garlands and snaking decorations the Muslim world had never seen, in the same innovative blue.
Inspired by the exquisite metal and glass objects made for the caliphs' courts, of which a handful have been included here, potters soon invented lustrous metallic glazes in reds and yellows and oranges, which they used on dishes aimed at a flourishing middle class.
This brightly colored "lusterware," rather than the blue-and-white dishes that came before it, for a while made the biggest splash. Ignored by the Chinese, the style passed from Basra to Egypt, Syria and Iran. Lusterware even came to be a specialty of Muslim and then Christian potters in far-off Spain. Eventually it crossed over to Italy, where the lustrous glazes invented in 9th Century Iraq became the hallmark of the famous majolica of the Italian Renaissance.
There are also less prepossessing objects that illustrate Hallett's scholarly claims. One display case presents funny lumps of colored stuff: the raw materials that helped spur Iraq's homegrown ceramic arts. An innovative Muslim glass industry produced the cobalt-blue "smalt" first used to color pottery in Basra. (Chemical tests suggest it's also the major source for the blues on early Chinese pots.) Iraqi work and trade in metals of all kinds would have supplied the lustrous colored glazes that came shortly afterward, as well as the lead and tin required for the plain white surfaces under them.
Astounding reach
Another case displays brightly colored potsherds, giving a sense of the plenty and variety produced by Muslim ceramists. But it also represents a small sampling of the many shards whose materials were tested by Hallett, a student of chemistry as well as an art historian and Islamist. Almost all those tested fragments -- from as far away as Thailand -- match clays discovered at an ancient kiln site in Basra.
It always had been assumed that Iraq's innovative potters had flourished in court towns such as Baghdad and Samarra. Hallett's research suggests the small port town of Basra, on the Persian Gulf, was the region's crucial center for ceramic innovation and production.
Finally, a few wall panels present some of the exhibit's most exciting and controversial arguments. Hallett's scientific comparison of Chinese pots and their later Iraqi copies indicates they were shaped using the same peculiar molding techniques. Muslim traders may have had more contact with Chinese craftsmen than anyone has thought; it's possible that they commissioned pottery in China for Iraq's booming market in whiteware, then stole their suppliers' manufacturing technology.
They also may have introduced Basra's own innovations to their Chinese partners. A Muslim trading ship was recently discovered off Indonesia, apparently shipwrecked on its way home from the Far East sometime soon after 826. Even at that early date, the pots in its hold included Chinese imitations of Iraq's blue-and-white ceramics, made using materials imported from the Middle East and techniques invented in Basra just a few years earlier.
"Iraq and China: Ceramics, Trade and Innovation" runs through April 24 at the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery of the Smithsonian's national museum of Asian art, on the Mall at 10th Street SW. Call 202-633-1000 or see www.asia.si.edu.

Magical Journeys Travel Guides: Albufeira, Portugal
Historic buildings that do remain in the once-Moorish old town include the 14th-century Capela da Misericórdia (Chapel of Mercy), which was formerly a mosque, but most of the whitewashed, Baroque-style churches have been replaced since the earthquake.
A few fragments of the castle walls are still standing along with the castle’s landmark clock tower, but it is the squat, stone Torre da Medronheira, which was built in the 1500s as a watchtower for pirates, that has best stood the test of time.

Lunar Chronicles, The: Winter by Marissa Meyer | Chris Knox

Lunar Chronicles, The: Winter by Marissa Meyer
Can Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, and Winter defeat Levana and find their happily ever afters?1
I’m not sure why I waited so long to read Fairest, but having the background on Queen Levana and Princess Winter helped to give that special bit of insight to the characters for reading Winter. Cinder, the first book in the Lunar Chronicles, had me hooked from the very beginning. Each book modelled after a fairytale with it’s own twist while forming one unified story was perfection. Cinder with the obvious Cinderella flair. Scarlett as our Red Riding Hood with the Big Bad Wolf. Cress as Rapunzel trapped in a satellite rather than a tall tower, but very much the same effect as the tower and her long flowing hair. Finally, Winter, our Snow White in the series. The Lunar Chronicles are perfection taking these beloved characters and elements from their stories while wrapping them all together in an intergalactic war with cyborgs, androids, space ships and foreign monarchies.
Princess Winter has lived her life in the shadows of her manipulative step mother Queen Levana. Being a Lunar herself, Winter has the ability to perform many of the same manipulations, but for reasons that remain a secret to the reader for some time, she refuses to use her Lunar gift. This causes her mind to crack with hallucinations of blood dripping from the walls and her limbs turning to ice.
Cinder and her band of misfits have successfully kidnapped Emperor Kaito and are plotting their next step to stop Queen Levana. Cinder struggles with the idea of who she was born to be while going up against an entire planet and risking her new friends lives as well as her own. Each character or “Princess” has their own version of a “Prince” which means for each main character there is another half that Meyer had to plan a way to have everyone together, or groups separated so there aren’t as many people to have to touch on which could have added confusion to the story. This couldn’t be completely avoided though so there is a bunch of jumping around throughout the story. This is partly to update us on each group to see what is going on, but also to create hype and suspense.
I must admit that the ending to the series was a bit anti-climactic, but it was also something to be expected. You can’t please everyone and things needed to be wrapped up to close the story. Meyer decided to take the route to place the stepping stones to resolution with the readers imagination to finish the brickwork as to what the future holds for our beloved characters.
The Lunar Chronicles are a must read series for any fiction fan. Thankfully the magic isn’t over. Despite Winter being the final book in the series, Meyer released a book called Stars Above full of novella tales to help build on our favourite characters and some of the missing pieces to their own stories and how they came to be part of Cinder’s life. Although I am sad that the series is over I remain hopeful, as I’m sure many of you are, that the books will be turned into films. I believe this is a necessity. We need these films and we need them now. Right now.
