Former Welsh international striker Ron Davies has died at the age of 71. In his heyday at Southampton he was regarded as one of the best headers of the ball in the League, something he demonstrated when scoring all four Saints goals in a 4-1 win at Old Trafford in August 1969. http://www.wsc.co.uk/wsc-daily/1162-may-2013/9849-southampton-legend-ron-davies-dies-aged-71 Watch the video: Ron Davies marca 3 Resumen del 4-1 del Southampton FC al Manchester Utd con 3 goles del galés Ron Davies.

My feelings about Stein have fluctuated ever since I read The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas in ninth grade. In fact, they have fluctuated in the time it took me to read this article. But Wars I Have Seen is definitely on my reading list now. Why the witch-hunt against Gertrude Stein? | Jacket2 In 1934, Gertrude Stein was invited to the White House to have tea with Eleanor Roosevelt. Stein was on a triumphant lecture tour across the United States, following the success of her bestselling Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas and her fashionable opera Four Saints in Three Acts.

"In 1934, Bobsy Goodspeed, seated beneath a portrait of her by Bernard Boutet de Monvel" at her lush Lincoln Park apartment; the architect David Adler designed the space." Deal Estate: Penthouse designed by David Adler for Bobsy Goodspeed   "Between the world wars, a beautiful, artistic woman named Bobsy Goodspeed stood at the heart of Chicago’s social and cultural scenes. Now, prompted by a salacious if glancing remark in a recent book, this forgotten woman re-emerges and opens the door on a vanished era peopled by painters and pianists, plutocrats and politicians—and an irresistible force named Gertrude Stein" By Geoffrey Johnson "... Known as Bobsy since she was a girl—the name had stuck, even though Bobsy was now 41—Elizabeth Fuller Goodspeed was the president of the Arts Club of Chicago and a vivacious, almost unstoppable force. So on the afternoon of November 7, 1934, the day of the opera's Chicago opening, Stein and Toklas hurried to Newark Airport in New Jersey for their first airplane ride ever. After an uneventful flight, the plane landed to a crowd of reporters and curiosity seekers at Chicago's Municipal Airport (today it's called Midway). Bobsy was waiting with her chauffeur-driven limousine and spirited Stein and Toklas to her luxurious Lincoln Park apartment. That night the Auditorium overflowed with the cream of Chicago society, drawn by the hype surrounding Four Saints, as well as by the promised presence of Stein and Thomson, who would conduct the orchestra. Stein wore a prune-colored silk gown ornamented at the neck with an oval brooch studded with diamonds, while Toklas, her bobbed and waved hair set off by enormous gold earrings, wore a ruffled navy taffeta gown. The pair watched the performance with Bobsy, and when the final curtain fell, they went backstage to congratulate the cast. "The first act seemed so strange and new," a gratified Stein told reporters. "Until tonight I've always heard the music inside myself, and now for the first time I'm hearing it outside." Following the opera, Bobsy held a supper party at her apartment. For both the writer and her hostess, it was a supreme moment of personal and public triumph. "Of the many courses," wrote Toklas in her famous 1954 cookbook (the one with the recipe for hashish brownies), "I only remember the first and the last, a clear turtle soup and a fantastic pièce montée of nougat and roses, cream and small coloured candles." Toklas included Bobsy's recipe for turtle soup in her cookbook, and today that limpid concoction is the rare reminder of a significant but forgotten Chicago socialite, a spirited woman who, on closer inspection, deserves a more substantial memorial than what Toklas called a "tasty, nourishing but light soup. ..." http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/October-2008/Portrait-of-a-Lady/    2 months ago - Via Google+ - View - Robert Edwards : Statement: The Philippine Presidential Spokesperson on the Pope’s resignation Not only the Catholic ... Statement: The Philippine Presidential Spokesperson on the Pope’s resignation Not only the Catholic world, but all peoples and nations of goodwill are filled with great regret as news comes of Pope Benedict XVI announcing he intends to relinquish the Petrine Ministry on February 28 of this year. This is the first time in centuries that the papacy will be vacated by means of resignation. It is a momentous time for the Catholic Church and all those with whom that Church has interacted. At this time, when the Pope has announced the physical challenges he faces makes it difficult to continue bearing the burdens of his office, we join the Catholic world and all whose lives he has touched, in prayer and sympathy. May he find respite from his physical challenges, and peace and contentment in the seclusion of retirement. Pope Benedict XVI’s decision, historic as it is, is in keeping with humility and pastoral approach he has placed at the core of his service as Pope. It is also an act of supreme faith in the institution he has headed, and the faith he has proclaimed to the world. We pause in human sympathy with Pope Benedict XVI in his acknowledgement of the great physical burden of his office. With millions of Filipino Catholics the world over, and the great religions of the world who found in Benedict XVI a man of sincere spiritual dialogue and great intellectual engagement, we hope and pray the Catholic Church and the Holy See will emerge from the coming period of the Sede Vacante, the conclave to come, with the election of a new Pope prepared to take up the great burdens and expectations of the Catholic faithful worldwide. We recall, in particular, with fond gratitude, the many prayers and comforting words Pope Benedict XVI has dedicated to Filipinos in times of calamity and challenge, and his words of encouragement and witness in the many Catholic events that have brought Catholics together, such as the recent canonization of San Pedro Calungsod.

Hermann of Hesse (1480–1508), archibishop of Cologne, donated this Magi window to Cologne Cathedral, depicting the New Testament scene of the adoration of the Magi and its counterpart pertaining to the Old Testament, the Queen of Sheba visiting King Solomo. The four saints below these scenes are the patron saints of the archbishop and his family: St Peter, Mary, St Elisabeth of Thuringia, and St Christopher. The sixteen coats of arms show the donor's aristocratic ancestry.  My share for #sacredsunday  and the +SacredSunday™ community.

So, for the second day! • Oskar Schindler Factory Museum • Rynek Glowny • Wawel Cathedral • St. Mary’s Basilica Oskar Schindler Factory Museum: Oskar Schindler arrived to Krakow hot on the heels of the German invasion in September 1939. As a member of the Nazi party and an agent of the German military intelligence he managed to appropriate the factory which had been set up by a group of Jewish businessmen in 1937. Krakow’s two Jewish proprietors who became dependent on Schindler, Abraham Bankier and Samuel Wiener, provided him with necessary capital. The factory originally known under its Polish name as Fabryka Naczyn Emaliowanych i Wyrobow Blaszanych ‘Rekord’ was renamed Deutsche Emailwarenfabrik (DEF). Under Schindler’s control the plant at 4 Lipowa street continued to produce cookware and varied metal vessels, primarily for the German army. He accomplished ambitious plans of the rapid expansion of production facilities. Schindler also succeeded in launching a munitions division so his factory was able to contribute directly to the Third Reich’s war effort as supplier of cartridge cases and fuses for bombs and artillery shells. He reduced costs by replacing the original Polish staff with cheap labor from the Krakow Jewish ghetto the Nazis organized not far from Schindler’s factory. When Germans liquidated the ghetto in 1943 and moved the remaining Jews to the Plaszow concentration camp, Schindler opened its branch on the premises of his factory complete with barbed-wire fences and watchtowers. Rynek Glowny: Rynek Główny is a spacious square surrounded by historical townhouses (kamienice), palaces and churches. The center of the square is dominated by the Sukiennice (the Cloth Hall or Drapers' Hall), rebuilt in 1555 in the Renaissance style, topped by a beautiful attic or Polish parapet decorated with carved masks. On one side of the Sukiennice is the Town Hall Tower (Wieża ratuszowa), on the other the 10th century Church of St. Wojciech (St. Adalbert's) and 1898 Adam Mickiewicz Monument. Rising above the square are the Gothic towers of St. Mary's Basilica (Kościół Mariacki). Wawel Cathedral: The Wawel Cathedral, Katedra Wawelska in Polish, was the coronation site of Polish monarchs and remains Poland's most important national sanctuary. Thanks to its 1000-year-old history and numerous treasures the Krakow cathedral is arguably the most interesting place in the whole country, with the adjacent Wawel Royal Castle being the close second. Its present 14th-century walls shelter a great variety of top-class objects of art, from Gothic to Renaissance to Baroque to Classicist to Modern. It is also the burial ground of most Polish royalty as well as the greatest national heroes, two poets, four saints and countless Krakow bishops. St Mary's Basilica: The lop-sided glory of St. Mary's is one of the most photographed sites in all Cracow. According to legend, two brothers built the towers, and one brother deliberately built higher in a bid for greater glory. When the tricked sibling returned to town and discovered the betrayal, he did away with his brother in a fit of rage (the grisly knife still hangs in the Cloth Hall). After that lovely story, we should add that St. Mary's gained most of her present form following the Tatar raid of the mid-thirteenth century. The church was to be a proud symbol of the merchants' prestige. The jewel in the crown came many years later with Veit Stoss's altar-piece - still in situ - which contains some two hundred sculpted figures. Legends abound with this building. Besides the embittered brothers, the northern tower is the home of the Hejnal trumpet call. 6 months ago - Via Google+ - View - Midge Noble : EXCITING NEWS!!! EXCITING NEWS!!!
