Jason Christian's work pushes the boundaries of his craft, combining the delicate complexity of reticello with intricate detailing inspired by Fabergé eggs. Through series such as his Bumbershoots and Yo-Yos that reflect classic Venetian technique to more sculptural works including Dragons and Volpe, Christian's art is deeply influenced by his family, personal experiences, and the nostalgia of growing up in the Pacific Northwest. A renowned glass artist based in the Seattle area, Christian was born in 1976 on Whidbey Island, Washington, to a metal fabricator and a cardiac nurse. His artistic journey began at the age of 21 when he was introduced to glassblowing as a factory charger, where he gradually developed his skills and knowledge through hands-on experience. His formal education in glassblowing includes workshops and classes with notable artists such as Pino Signoretto, Jeff Mack, Janusz Pozniak and Preston Singletary. Throughout his career, Christian has worked with numerous well-known artists in the Seattle glass community, including Martin Blank, Preston Singletary, James Mongrain and Nancy Callan. Since 2008, Christian has been an integral member of Dale Chihuly's Boathouse team, working with international artists like Pino Signoretto. He has also served as a glassblowing assistant to Lino Tagliapietra since 2014 and worked as a fabricator for Lindsey Adelman from 2014 to 2016. Says Christian: “I still don't know if I chose glassblowing or if it chose me. I just knew that the moment I walked into that studio and saw what was being created I had to be a part of it. Finding glassblowing felt magical, like I was made for it. It provided something I lacked in my younger years – the urge to create, grow, and express myself through my work. To witness a person handle molten glass, manipulate it, and form it as if it were water was amazing to me. I knew that I had to be a part of it.” Christian has participated in numerous artist residencies, including: FOCI, Minneapolis, MI (2019); Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, NY (2019); Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, WA (multiple years); Museum of Glass, Tacoma, WA (2016 and 2008); University of Texas at Arlington (2015); and the University of Wisconsin-Steven's Point (2015). He was Auction Centerpiece Designer at Schack Art Center, Everett, WA, in 2016 and 2010. His work is featured in several notable collections including the Hauberg collection, the Elton John collection, the Ben Bridge collection and many more private collections in the United States and Canada. With a desire to share his expertise through teaching and demonstrations, Christian has conducted workshops at various institutions including Penland School of Craft (2019); Pittsburgh Glass Center (2019); Pratt Fine Arts Center (2018); Pilchuck Glass School (2017); Urban Glass (2016); and Seattle Glassblowing Studio (2010-2013); He has also been a demonstrating artist in Turkey (2015) and Finland (2009). Christian states: “Beyond my relationship with glass, the camaraderie within the industry enticed me to grow beyond myself, always looking for what was within and turning that into something I could only see in my mind. It created an environment of growth and exploration, pushing me to be a better artist.” Upcoming Christian workshops include Penland School of Craft, August 10 – 15; Hilltop @ Pilchuck, September 28; and Neusole Glassworks, Forest Park, Ohio, November 17.

Send us a textIn episode 241 of The Data Diva Talks Privacy Podcast, host Debbie Reynolds, “The Data Diva,” welcomes Phillip Mason, Global Privacy Program Manager at Corning, Inc. Phillip joins Debbie to discuss the complicated interplay between AI advancement, regulatory frameworks, and the ethical imperative of human judgment. Drawing from his diverse background in accounting, law, and privacy, Phillip offers an informed and multidimensional perspective on how businesses navigate emerging risks. He critiques overbroad AI legislation like the EU AI Act, which he believes may have unintended consequences for innovation, particularly among smaller firms lacking legal and compliance resources. Debbie and Phillip dive into examples of poorly executed AI rollouts that sparked public backlash, such as LinkedIn's data harvesting practices and Microsoft's Recall feature, emphasizing the importance of transparency and foresight. Phillip also unpacks the difference between having a “human in the loop” and placing real ethical judgment into practice. They discuss how organizations can build a culture of trust and accountability where data science and compliance work harmoniously. The conversation ultimately underscores that as algorithms get smarter, human oversight must also evolve, with thoughtful governance, interdisciplinary collaboration, and values-driven leadership.Support the show

“Between 2008 and 2013, China's fledgling solar-electric panel industry dropped world prices by 80 percent, a stunning achievement in a fiercely competitive high-tech market.” - John Fialka, Scientific American In March, Corning, Suniva, and Heliene announced a partnership that will allow them to build a U.S. supply chain for solar panels, from polysilicon to wafers to cells to panels. In a global solar industry worth $100 Billion, the opportunity is massive, but so is the risk. The path to the present moment is littered with companies who failed operationally or found themselves tangled up in controversy because they were trying to compete with China on cost. With a history of tariffs, concerns about forced labor, and imbalances between supply and demand, the solar supply chain offers many lessons for other manufacturers looking to reshore. In this episode of Art of Supply, Kelly Barner examines: Unique challenges facing the solar supply chain and how they ironically created an additional incentive for this partnership Why it is essential that more than just final assembly take place in the United States The role of government incentives and regulations in making this possible Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

At the ITA Showcase, I had the chance to sit down with Sebastian Sassi of Atlantic Vision, who invited me to this important regional event. This gathering brings together regional fiber operators—the people actually building broadband infrastructure in places that need it most. "Broadband connectivity is a democratizing agent," said Sassi. "Access to information fuels commerce, education, and political engagement. To be disconnected in the 21st century is to be left behind." The Vital Role of Regional Fiber Operators Large telecoms like Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T aren't prioritizing rural fiber expansion, but regional operators are stepping in to bridge the gap. As Sebastian put it, “If we waited for the big Tier 1 providers to build fiber in these areas, it would be a long wait for a train that's not coming.” These local providers are deploying fiber where big corporations won't, ensuring more homes and businesses get connected. What Does Atlantic Vision Do? Atlantic Vision provides the last-mile fiber connectivity—the cables, terminals, and infrastructure that connect end users to high-speed networks. The company offers faster, more affordable, and higher-quality solutions than the industry giants that have dominated this space for years. A Huge Economic Opportunity for MSPs & Partners Billions of dollars are being invested in broadband expansion over the next five years, creating massive opportunities for regional fiber operators, MSPs, and vendors who support these projects. Atlantic Vision offers a competitive alternative in a market long controlled by just a few major players. A Telecom Veteran Driving Change Sebastian Sassi has been in telecom since 1999, with experience in CPE, last-mile fiber, software, and cybersecurity. He understands the industry from both a technology and business perspective—and he's leading Atlantic Vision in its mission to challenge the traditional fiber duopoly. "The Corning and Comscope duopoly needs to be challenged. They should be looking over their shoulders, because we're coming." Learn More Visit www.atlanticvision.com
self-described loner, Joel Philip Myers developed his skills in relative isolation from the Studio Glass movement. With works inspired by a vast array of topics ranging from his deep love of the Danish countryside to Dr. Zharkov, the artist avoided elaborate sculpture in favor of substantial vessels that are simple yet powerful. States Myers: “In 1964, on the occasion of an exhibition titled Designed for Production: The Craftsman's Approach, I wrote in an essay in Craft Horizons magazine: ‘My approach to glass, as it is to clay, is to allow the material an expression of its own. Press the material to the utmost, and it will suggest ideas and creative avenues to the responsive artist.' The statement was sincere and enthusiastic, but decidedly naïf. I never thought when I wrote it that it would be the one statement of mine that would continue to be repeatedly quoted, throughout my 46- year-long career, as my defining philosophy. I have no defining philosophy. I am a visual artist, not a philosopher. Thoughts and ideas and opinions do not constitute a philosophy, and my thoughts and ideas and opinions have evolved and matured and changed in the time that has passed since 1964.” He continues: “As an artist I like to think of myself as a visitor in a maze, trying to find a solution to a dizzying puzzle. As in a maze, I have, through blunders and exploration, arrived at solutions, and embraced the manifold possibilities that the material offers: plasticity, transparency, opacity, translucency. I am sensitive to the wonders of the visual world and inspired by the forms and colors of the natural world. My training as a designer has enabled me to understand and exploit organization and structure, adding a rational perspective to my intuitive, emotional self.” Myers earned his degree in advertising design from Parsons School of Design in 1954. He studied in Copenhagen, Denmark, before earning a B.F.A. and M.F.A. in ceramics from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University in the early 1960s. In 1963, he was hired as design director at Blenko Glass Company in Milton, West Virginia. Captivated by the drama of this thriving glass factory, he learned glassblowing through observation and practice. In 1970, Myers established the nascent glass department at Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois, where he served as Distinguished Professor of Art for 30 years until he retired from teaching in 1997. He is an Honorary Lifetime Member, 2012 Lifetime Achievement Award Winner and past President of the Glass Art Society, a Fellow of the American Crafts Council, and the recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship. His work is represented in prominent museum collections around the world, including The Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, NY; The Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL; the National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC; the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C; The Museum of Decorative Arts, Prague; Hokkaido Museum of Modern Art, Japan; Musee des Arts Decoratifs, Palais du Louvre, Paris, France; and Musee de Design et d'Arts Appliques Contemporains, Lausanne, Switzerland, amongst others. Of his sculpture, Myers states: “My work is concerned with drawing, painting, playing with color and imagery on glass. I work with simple forms and concentrate on the surface enrichment. I prefer the spherical, three-dimensional surface to a flat one, because as I paint and draw on the glass, the glass form receives the drawing, adapts to its shape, distorts and expands it as it clothes and envelops itself in my drawing. I feel a communication with the material, and a reciprocation from my subconscious, as I continually search for new insights into my unknown self.” Enjoy this enlightening conversation with Myers, who at 91 has a near photographic memory of the events and developments that spurred the Studio Glass movement forward in its early days, as well as the ideas and processes of his personal work in glass – some of the most successful and collected of its day.

I'll take you on my latest thrifting adventures, talk about reselling, chat with other enthusiasts about their collections, and learn about a bunch of really awesome items from the past. Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you love listening to podcasts so you don't miss a beat. Everybody, this is Bex Scott and you are listening to the Pyrex with Bex podcast. I wanted to start off this episode with a little Value Village thrift store adventure. So I went into town with my husband and our daughter. Of course, she fell asleep on the way in. We were running some errands and we had some time to kill, so I asked Rob, my husband, if we could stop at Value Village and he said sure. So I let him stay in the car with our daughter, and I ran in to do a quick little ten minute run around the store, see if anything good was there. And lately Value Village hasn't been that great. There's been a lot of just broken things or missing pieces to things that I found. Today was a decent day, so there were some pretty beat up Pyrex. There was a Woodland Cinderella set, only three of the dishes, and it was priced at $35. It had some damage on the largest bowl, and I did consider it for a second, but I just couldn't justify paying $35 for that and the condition that it was in. Bex Scott: [00:01:47] I also found a Homestead 403 mixing bowl that had been through years of dishwasher use, and they wanted $15 for it. And another primary set, blue 401. They wanted $6 for it and it was missing a lot of its color. So that was a bit of what I found today. That was a disappointment. I did, however, find six mugs from the Spring Blossom Tabletopware coordinates set. These are the nine ounce mugs that were sold in sets of four, and I found six in this pattern. So I picked them up and they were a great price. I was a bit sad though because I found them, I grabbed them and then I walked down to the other aisle and this little girl looked at me and I gave her a smile. I thought she was just being friendly, but then I heard her say, hey mom, I just saw somebody take those green flower mugs. And the mom said, don't worry, we left them there for a reason. And I felt so bad because this little girl obviously wanted to take these mugs home, but the mom was set on her not having them for some reason, probably because they didn't need six vintage mugs in their house for their kids to use. But I hope she knows that they're going to a good home. Bex Scott: [00:03:13] I also found this amazing enamel fondue set in like a mustardy color with little flowers all over it, and it came with, I think it was six melamine divided plates and four forks with different colored plastic handles. That whole set is going to be in an upcoming mid-century modern show that I have a booth at in Calgary. It is my very first show that I'm ever doing. I have a ten by ten booth, three tables, so I'm excited to be thrifting to find some pieces that I can put in that show. If any of you are in Calgary and you hear this episode before I go to the show, it's April 12th, 2025, so you can catch me there and come and see some of the awesome pieces of Pyrex that I'm going to have there, and just other, other things that I have found over the last year or so. Going to Value Village today kind of brings me to my episode, where I always go down the appliance section, and I never expect to find anything in this section. It's usually a bunch of really beat up, lately it's been donut makers, those little instant donut makers or cake pop makers, so nothing really great in vintage, but it got me thinking about kind of the small kitchen appliances that people used in their home in the 1960s. Bex Scott: [00:04:47] So I was doing some research and I came across this really great article in, the websites called Click Americana.Com. So go to my show notes and navigate to this article. It's called 1960s Gadgets and Small Kitchen Appliances Made Life a Little Easier, and this episode is going to be a bit of a read through the article and take you through it, but I want you to make sure that you see these photos, because a lot of them are clips taken from old catalogs and magazines, and it'll give you a really great idea of the pieces and the appliances that they had in their kitchens. And a lot of these I have seen at Value Village before, and other thrift stores, and some of them I even have in my basement right now waiting to be sold. So it's kind of a bit of an educational episode and a fun little show and tell as well. Bex Scott: [00:05:40] So the first one we have is the retro wall-mounted manual can opener by Can-O-Mat. And this is from the 1960s, and the ad shows a little lady in the reflection of the can opener opening her can and it says most beautiful can opener made. Its clean, uncluttered beauty tells you Can-O-Mat is a masterpiece of mechanical simplicity. No levers, gadgets, wires or motors, just the easy turn of a single handle opens any can, any size, any shape. Leaves a smooth, safe drinking cup edge. That's why you'll find Can-O-Mat in most kitchens, where quiet, good taste and smooth efficiency are happily wedded. Any wonder its first choice of millions of style conscious homemakers? I struggle with can openers, all of the modern ones. I think they're terrible. I have trouble figuring out how to use them, and half the time they don't even cut properly. So it kind of has me thinking that I should be looking for one of these in the stores when I'm out and about. Bex Scott: [00:06:42] Next up we have the Oster electric meat grinder. It's called the Electric Power Unit. It sits on your countertop and it says versatile and powerful, Oster electric meat grinder slices through foods without tearing, bruising, or mashing. That sounds kind of gross. Speedily and effortlessly grinds all foods from toughest meats to the most delicate vegetables. Even grinds hard almonds. New economies, better meals, and far more pleasure in food preparation are yours every day from the very first day you own the Oster electric meat grinder. I don't know about you guys, but I find a lot of meat grinder parts when I'm shopping or when I've bought a lot at an estate sale or in an auction. They are never complete. I would love to be able to test out one of these meat grinders, but so far I haven't come across one that's a full unit. Bex Scott: [00:07:39] Next up we have the vintage General Electric rotisserie oven. This is really cute, it's a little countertop rotisserie oven and it says five good reasons for owning a General Electric rotisserie oven, in brackets, even if you have a good range oven. Number one is the rotisserie infrared broiler precision oven does so much more than an ordinary rotisserie. Does as many things, in fact, as an expensive range oven, and has range oven accuracy. Number two infrared broiling seals in the natural juices for best ever steaks and seafood. Brown and crusty outside. Delectable inside. Number three bake without heating up the kitchen. Separate baking element on bottom. Thermostatic heat control assure perfect cakes, breads, fancy desserts. Tilt top lid closes completely for baking. Glass window lets you peek in. This is like a fancy Easy-Bake oven. And then there's a picture. It kind of looks like a cat litter box with a lid on the top. Number four it has automatic push button controls. And number five, it's portable. You can cook anywhere with the General Electric rotisserie oven. That's pretty handy. You can take it to your friends houses. You could even cook in the parking lot if you have an outlet. Imagine taking this to a tailgate party. You just pull up your vintage rotisserie oven and put it on your tailgate. I would do that. Bex Scott: [00:09:07] Next up we have a waffle maker and it says makes four big waffles at a time. General Electric Sandwich Grill and Waffle Iron has reversible grids that make delicious pancakes too. Grills sandwiches, bacon, and eggs. This is one that we have a ton of modern equivalents of this, so it looks pretty similar to what we have now. I have a waffle maker, but it's a tiny one, but I can see how this would be awesome. It is massive. Next up is something that I see a lot of in the thrift stores. We have the vintage GE Stainless Steel automatic coffee maker, and this one is from 1961 and it has a cute little Christmas background. But I find that these vintage coffee makers make amazing coffee, and I've had many of them over the years where we've brewed our coffee in them, and it just tastes so much better than drinking from a Keurig or a Nespresso pod. Next, we have the front loading Toast-R-Oven toaster oven. So it's spelled toast with an R in the middle, and it has a pretty funny description. It says, hands the toast to you, no digging. Toasts all breads, any shape, top browns muffins, grilled cheese sandwiches. Bakes too, frozen desserts, meat pies, even meatloaf. And it is essentially just a countertop toaster oven. That's what it is. I always wanted a toaster oven as a kid because I remember my grandparents having one, and the toast comes out so nice in these toaster ovens. This might be a bad episode for me, because now I'm thinking of all the different things that I should be buying and my family will love me for having no kitchen counter space after I go out and hunt for all these pieces. Bex Scott: [00:11:05] Okay, next we have beats, whips, mixes, drinks, sharpens knives too. This is from 1961 and this is the General Electric portable mixer. Though it's only two and three quarter pounds, it's extra thorough with batters, extra gentle with sauces, extra marvelous with meringues. A free drink mixer fixes drinks in a whirl. This is a tongue twister. Remove beaters and plug in an optional accessory that sharpens knives. I've never seen one of these. Easily and safely. See the portable mixer in white, yellow, pink, and turquoise. Oh, those are some good colors. I would pick pink. At your General Electric dealers. It's very interesting actually. So you take off the beaters and then you can use it as the knife sharpener, or you can whip things up if you put the beaters back in. Okay, next we have the Salton Hotray appliance. I have sold so many of these hotrays. I've gifted them to my mother in law. And I have a few still in my basement. These ones are from 1962, and I find them almost every time I go to Value Village. And it's always fun to see which kind, because the top of them is always a different pattern. There's some pretty ones with flowers, there's some with just funky abstract designs. But it says here that it protects your dinner after you've cooked it. It can do this because the temperature of its radiant heat glass panel is thermostatically controlled to a point right under the cooking point. Thus, the food on it neither continues to cook nor to stand around growing cold. This means that those late coming husbands and extra drink guests will no longer pay the price of an overcooked and dried out dinner. And when dinner is finally served, hotray will put an end to your jumping up and down from the table. You just put the entire dinner on hotray, put hotray on the dining table, and serve from there. First will taste like firsts and seconds will taste as good as first. Of course, there's much more to Salton Hotray. Find me on Instagram and let me know, Did you guys use hotrays growing up? Do you still use hotrays? Do you like them? What are your thoughts? Bex Scott: [00:13:19] Next up we have the automatic can opener kitchen gadget from 1961, and I'm pretty sure this is one that my grandparents had, and they mounted it to the underside of their kitchen cabinet. I remember this growing up vividly. It says it removes or hinges the lid quickly, cleanly, with no jagged edges. Magnet holds lid away from food, mounts on wall or optional counter stand. Next, we have a whole variety of vintage toasters from 1963. So we've got the GE Toast-R-Oven. We have the Two Slice that gives you nine shades of toast. We have the Dominion Four Slicer, ideal for big families, toasts 1 to 4 slices at a time, pops them up high, gives perfect results automatically. And it's chrome. We have the GE High Lift. Pops bread extra high, has easy to read control for light, dark or nine shades between. We have your Flip-Door toaster. It has a tray attached. Just flip doors, toast turns automatically, in a walnut trim. And then last we have the Toastmaster Sovereign. Has new controls up front. New concave design. Silent timer assures perfect shade of toast every single time. Bex Scott: [00:14:36] Next up we have kitchen cooking and heating small appliances from 1963. We've got the Hand Mixer. Hangs on wall, has giant beaters and three speeds. The Toastmaster Portable Mixer has three speeds removable, cord. The Salton Gourmet Hotray. We have the Rotisserie Broiler, the 2-Burner Hotplate, the 1-Burner Hotplate, the Sunbeam Electric Frypan. It's completely immersible. Jumbo 12" Electric Skillet is automatic and washable. The Electric Buffet Server gives low heat, holds two quarts, and the Corning 10" Electric Skillet goes under broiler, yet on matching base, it bakes, stews and fries. And they have a little Corning blue cornflower on top of that guy. Bex Scott: [00:15:28] The low silhouette blender. This one my grandparents also had, and it has the super dangerous looking like machete knife little blade in the bottom of it that I always got scared of when I was washing it. It doesn't have anything to say about it. It's pretty self-explanatory. Low, off, or high, that's about it. Vintage Presto coffee pots in white and black. These are really cool looking, they're actually, they look kind of atomic, kind of space age. And it says, does anyone on your street have the white one yet? Pardon us, but we do make a perfectly wonderful coffee maker. It's the one on the left in stainless steel with rich, glossy black trim, fully automatic. It brews a cup a minute of marvelous coffee and keeps it hot. The open spout means easy pouring, easy cleaning too, because it won't trap bitter oils in residues, and you can dunk the entire coffee maker without a worry. Families who live with it every day just love it. Still, we've had a mild but steady clamor, it wasn't a complaint, but a question. People kept asking why not make it white? Most people like the black one, we said. We might not have the volume and weight for mass production, we said. We might have to price it higher and then nobody would buy it. This is all in a magazine ad, just so you guys know. So we made the white one anyway, it's the one on the right. It makes wonderful coffee the same as the black one. It does cost a few pennies more, but now you have a choice. This is a crazy ad. We don't think you'll have trouble finding a black Presto on your street, but if you hurry, you still might be first with the white one. And that might be quite a kick. Wowzas. Bex Scott: [00:17:13] Okay, Salton Bun Warmer, I have this, I've used it, it's amazing. It's so hard to find with the original cloth cover that closes and shuts, but I actually found one and it's great. So if you come across a Salton Bun Warmer, you'd better get it. It says it actually makes ordinary buns taste good, good ones taste great, and great ones taste like heaven on earth. The Salton Electric Bun Warmer won't perform miracles. It won't make our American mass produced buns and rolls taste like the kind grandma supposedly made 50 years ago. But what the Salton Bun Warmer will do is make rolls and buns taste a good deal better. It does this by keeping buns and rolls warm and fresh and crisp. And this ad, this is the exact one that I have. You can get the bun warmer for 9.95 or the French bread warmer for 11.95. Next up we have our Redi-Oven appliance tableside cooker from 1965. New, fast, easy, versatile, large capacity, compact electric oven that holds even a 3 pound roast or an 8 inch pie. Gleaming chrome finish with porcelain enamel interior. Automatic timer and controlled heat up to 500 degrees, perfect for preparing frozen foods, biscuits, baked potatoes right at the table. I want one of these. I've never seen this, but I want it. Double bonus $7.50 value international Silver Party Tray, plus free coupons for these famous frozen foods. Oh, so they were giving away this leaf shaped serving tray with a spoon as well. Bex Scott: [00:18:55] Vintage 1960s Ronson Foodmatic in-counter appliance. Ronson Foodmatic slices, shreds, grinds meat and coffee, juices oranges, crushes ice, it even cooks. That is a versatile piece of equipment. It's very interesting looking as well. It sits on top of your counter. You can put beaters in there for baking. What else does it say? Automatic timer, solid state speed, beater clutch and arm release, speed selector guide. It's quite the 1969 invention. Okay, next up we have vintage small kitchen appliances and decorator colors from 1969. General Electric gives you a festival of color, flame, avocado, and harvest. Appliances include a can opener slash knife sharpener, portable mixers and stand mixers, Dutch skillet, buffet skillet, and a blender. I love these colors. These are awesome. Not so much the avocado, but I could see myself with the harvest yellow one or the flame. The flame is a really nice red. And that is it for our 1960s gadgets and small kitchen appliances. I hope you guys go to the show notes to get a great visual of the items that I talked about, and find me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex, and let me know if you remember growing up with any of these appliances, what you loved, what you didn't, and if you have any in your kitchen now. Thanks everybody.

Perceiving her role as a record keeper, artist Jen Blazina captures the essence of lost memories and forgotten voices. Through her work, she holds onto fragments of personal history, transforming common objects into poignant relics of the past. Her visual narratives express universal concepts of memory, inviting audiences to connect with the stories she preserves. Blazina states: “Memory is embodied in everything around us: in our culture, beliefs, objects, and ourselves. Discarded objects and those passed down to me become personal keepsakes and icons of the past, rather than overlooked or regarded as useless. My collections represent a sense of holding onto a place in time. By re-creating these keepsakes, I re-cast their history into my own voice.” A sculptor and printmaker who uses glass as her primary medium, Blazina currently resides in Philadelphia where she is a working artist and professor at Drexel University in the College of Media Arts and Design. Blazina's work can be found in multiple collections such as the Neuberger Museum of Art, The Imagine Museum, The Cranbrook Museum of Art, and the Corning Museum of Glass, to name a few. The artist has been awarded numerous residencies including: the Corning Artist in Residency at the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York; GAPP Residency at Toledo Museum of Art in Toledo, OH; Bezalel Art and Design Academy in Jerusalem, Israel; and the Creative Glass Center of America in Millville, NJ. She has also been awarded prestigious grants such as the Bessie and Louis Stein Fellowship; Independence Foundation Grant; and a National Endowment for the Arts Grant. Nominated for the 2022 Pew Fellowship Award, Blazina received her M.F.A. in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art, her B.A. from Sarah Lawrence College in New York and her B.F.A., cum laude, from the State University of New York at Purchase College. Blazina is represented by Habatat Detroit Fine Art in Royal Oak, MI; Blue Spiral 1 in Asheville, NC; Vetri Glass Gallery in Seattle, WA; Kittrell Riffkind Gallery in Dallas, TX; Bullseye Projects in Portland, OR; and Koelsch Gallery in Houston, TX. In 2025, Blazina will have work on view at the Bergstrom Mahler Museum of Glass, Neenah, WI, in New Art on the Block: Selections from the Permanent Collections, October 31, 2024 – April 6, 2025; in Object Memory, Jen Blazina and Ash Smith at 20*20 Gallery, Lansdowne, PA, February 22 – April 15; in Through a Window Darkly, The Works of Jen Blazina at the Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass, April 24 to October 5, 2025; in Collections at Blue Spiral 1 Gallery, Asheville, NC, May 2 – June 25; and in Glass 53: International Glass Invitational at Habatat Fine Art Gallery, Royal Oak, MI, May 1 – September 6. She will teach Alternative Approaches to Printmaking and Glass at Corning Museum of Glass Studios, Corning, NY, June 16 – June 21; and In Pursuit of Light: Kiln Casting at Glass Furnace, Istanbul, Turkey, August 25 – August 29. Says Blazina: “As an artist, I am intrigued with the idea that what is precious to one person will be discarded by another. My work is influenced by commonplace possessions, familial vignettes and photographs. These evoke an ephemeral sense of past memories. Whether found in a second-hand shop or passed down from my family, I am often attracted to and captivated by the lost beauty of subtle images and materials. By re-creating and casting momentos in glass and metal, I can capture and hold on to another time in the past. Photographs and chosen objects allude to narratives of fleeting moments.” UPCOMING EVENTS New Art On The Block: Selections From The Permanent Collections Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass Neenah, WI Dates: October 31 – April 6, 2025 Object Memory, Jen Blazina and Ash Smith 20*20 Gallery Lansdowne, PA Dates: February 22 – April 15 Through a Window Darkly, The Works of Jen Blazina Bergstrom-Mahler Museum of Glass Neenah, WI Opening: April 24 Dates: April 24 to October 5 Collections Blue Spiral 1 Gallery Asheville, NC Opening Reception: May 2, 5 – 7 pm Dates: May 2 – June 25 Glass 53: International Glass Invitational Habatat Fine Art Gallery Royal Oak, MI Opening: May 3, 8 pm Dates: May 1- September 6 Alternative Approaches to Printmaking and Glass Corning Museum of Glass Studios Corning, NY Dates: June 16- June 21 In Pursuit of Light: Kiln Casting Glass Furnace Istanbul, Turkey Dates: August 25 – August 29

Host Bex Scott shares the five Pyrex patterns that she doesn't love in this episode. In addition to naming the unloved patterns, she explores their history and what dishes made up the sets on offer. Everyone's tastes are different so listeners may love a pattern Bex doesn't. You may agree with Bex or you may want to bring a case in defence of a favourite that appears on this list. Or possibly you're new to Pyrex and want to explore different sets. Whichever way you lean, there's something for you in this episode. All the information Bex shares is from the Pyrex Bible, more formally known as Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition by Michael D. Barber. From Golden Acorn to the infamous Old Orchard, Bex lets you into her opinions on her least loved Pyrex patterns. What is it about these patterns that put her off? What other patterns does she dislike? What is the best way to ruin a gold pattern Pyrex bowl? And is there anybody who will stand up in support of Old Orchard? Listen in then share your agreements, arguments, and collection display photos with Bex on Instagram @PyrexWithBex. Resources discussed in this episode:“Pyrex Passion 2nd Edition” by Michael D.

I'll take you on my latest thrifting adventures, talk about reselling, chat with other enthusiasts about their collections, and learn about a bunch of really awesome items from the past. Subscribe now on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you love listening to podcasts so you don't miss a beat. Hey everybody, this is Bex Scott and you are listening to the Pyrex with Bex podcast. On today's episode, I wanted to talk about the five Pyrex patterns that I don't love. I figured that since I've talked in the past about so many of the patterns that I do love, and I've had guests talking about their collections and the ones that they collect the most often, I'd switch things up a little bit and talk about the ones that I don't love as much. Now I do enjoy all Pyrex and I'll use any kind of pattern. I have even put patterns that I don't love in displays just because they go so well. And you'll realize that there's a bit of a pattern to the ones that I don't love once I start going through them. But I wanted to give you an idea of some of the ones that I don't necessarily collect as much of, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether you agree with me, which ones you don't love, and get a conversation going. You can find me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex, and feel free to share your thoughts about this episode there. Bex Scott: [00:01:42] So starting off, we have the first one, and I'll start by saying all of the information that I'm going to give is from the Pyrex Bible, the Pyrex Passion Book by Michael D Barber. I have the second edition, and that's where I get all of my of my information from. So I wanted to, once I say which pattern I don't love, give you a little bit of background information on the dish so that you can learn a little bit more about it if you're a new collector, or maybe you have been collecting for a while, but you haven't necessarily read up about certain patterns. And just to give some fun information on each of the pieces. Because regardless of whether I like it, there's tons of other people out there that do like these pieces, so to each their own. Bex Scott: [00:02:30] So the very first one is the Gold Acorn. And I have owned various pieces of this set, and I believe I started off liking them, but it just wasn't a pattern that grew on me. So this one was produced from 1959 to 1963, and it came in an assorted bakeware set. So it was gold applied to a beige background. It paints a little bit of a picture, and it's like a scrolly kind of ivy leaf pattern with little acorns on it. And it says that the boxes didn't include the pattern name, but marketing materials from the time used the name Gold Acorn on Ivory or Golden Touch in reference to this pattern. And it says that the first edition of Pyrex Passion referred to the pattern as Golden Acorn, but Gold Acorn was more commonly used in the catalogs. And most items were offered from 1959 to 1963, with the exception of the 053 oval open baker, which was dropped in 1962. So the ones that I've had are the oval casseroles, and they come in the one and a half quart and two and a half quart with the clear lids. And I've also had a divided serving dish. And one of the things that I learned early on when I was collecting Pyrex is that you don't put anything abrasive on gold, and this was me being naive. I should have known better. But I remember getting a tube of peek because starting off in my collecting, I had heard that peek is the perfect thing to take the utensil marks off of Pyrex and just clean them up, which it is. But you cannot use anything abrasive on gold because it will wear it off. So I remember squeezing the peek onto a piece of paper towel, and I rubbed off the whole bottom half of the gold acorn pattern. And I still haven't forgotten that it was a good lesson for me to learn, but for any of you that are just starting out, you can use peek to clean your Pyrex but do not use it on the gold. It will ruin it. Bex Scott: [00:04:58] Okay, so the Gold Acorn was also offered in the stamp catalog carousel with a cradle, and the stamp program was where you would redeem your stamps at the store and they would give you the Pyrex in return. So it says the item appears in the 1961 Top Value Stamps Family Gift Catalog. The cradle was the same one used on the 1959 duet, or also known as Dandelion Casserole. And that one kind of has the same colorings. It's more of a yellow, though, actually. And I really like the Dandelion. The oval divided serving dish also came in Gold Acorn and then the oval open baker. And I have to say, I don't love this pattern, but I do have a weakness for space saver casseroles. I just love the size of them, especially if they come with that metal lid. Perfect for the freezer. So these ones were sold individually with a clear lid from 1959 to 1963. And then they came out with another set, same time frame though, with the oven freezer serving set. And they were both packaged in a set that included one clear lid and two metal lids. And I know where I am in Canada at least those metal lids are very hard to come by. I think I have maybe one of them that I was lucky enough to find on Facebook Marketplace, and that's one that I will never resell. That one will stay in my collection, and I'm always on the lookout for more of those metal lids. Now, the Gold Acorn did have a prototype, and they were the 473, 474 and 475. They were the round casseroles with clear lids, and these ones were not standard production items. They have resurfaced in this pattern and are being said that they're possibly manufactured as test items in the early 1960s. Bex Scott: [00:07:00] So next up, you'll see there's a bit of a theme here with which patterns I don't love. We have the Golden Honeysuckle, so it's not all gold that I dislike. There are quite a few patterns, especially the promotional ones that have gold. There's just something about these ones that have the vines or the flowers that I don't know why, it just doesn't do it for me. The Golden Honeysuckle 1963 to 1965. It was testing, Corning was testing the market with new shapes and sizes of casseroles. And I think that's maybe why this one I don't love so much. Now, I've owned all of the Golden Honeysuckle, and they are really nice to bake casseroles in and to heat things in because they're nice and long and they're really deep. There's also shallow ones for vegetables, which is great. But to me, this isn't the standard Pyrex that I know and love. They released four casseroles, and they featured a unique square shape designed by William M Curtis. Bex Scott: [00:08:09] To ensure the gold pattern adhered properly casseroles were sprayed white on top of the opal glass. Walnut serving trays were also available in one size, a 935 that fit the two smaller casseroles, while another size, 958, fit the two larger casseroles. The serving trays were sold separately and also packaged with the casseroles when sold as a set. And these casseroles were sold individually and you have the 033, 035, 055, 058, 935 which is the tray and the 958 which is the tray. And then it came as a casserole serving set. So you have the 33, the 35, the 55 and the 58. And then there were casserole prototypes. So after the casserole style was patented in 1961, Corning tested the new shapes with many different designs. These prototype items are quite rare, but can be found in many patterns such as Early American, Green Scroll, White Snowflake on Turquoise, and White Compass on Turquoise. Bex Scott: [00:09:17] Okay, the next one. This is going to be no surprise because I've talked about it at length on many of my episodes. That Old Orchard is my least favorite pattern. And there's tons of memes out there about poor Old Orchard. And it really doesn't get a lot of love. So I would really like to know how many collectors out there or just people in general, like the Old Orchard pattern. And if you have examples of how you've styled Old Orchard in your shelves with other items, I would really like to see them because this is one pattern that is very interesting to me, and I'm sure it will look great in a fall assembly of just different items, so feel free to shoot them over to me on Instagram. Bex Scott: [00:10:06] So Old Orchard was 1973 to 1977 and it contained a mix of pattern pieces, solid colored pieces and pieces with brown shading sprayed around the top of the bowl, so it gave it kind of an ombre effect. It was designed by Corning artist Estelle G. Rothstein, and it was released in late 1973. The lids were solid brown applied to opal glass. However, by 1977 the brown lids were replaced by clear lids, and I have maybe 1 or 2 of these pieces. Actually, I think I have most of the Cinderella Bowl set and a few of the round casseroles, but I've only ever found one of the solid brown lids, and it does look nice when you put a solid brown lid on the solid bottomed pattern. But the clear ones are definitely more popular to find with this set. So this set came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl from 1973 to 77. So you have the 401, 2, 3 and 4, and it alternates from the pattern, the fruit pattern to the brown tan fade, fruit pattern, brown tan fade. So you have an alternating pattern for your stack. And then that's the same for the Cinderella bowls. It was a four piece Cinderella bowl set. Bex Scott: [00:11:28] And then you have the four piece refrigerator set as well. It was two 501s that are different colors. One was solid dark brown and the other was solid caramel. Next up you have the three piece bake, serve and store set. And this was round casseroles in the three piece with brown opal lids from 1973 through to early 77. In the last few months of production, the opal lids were replaced like the clear lids like it mentioned before. So you have the 471, 472 and the 473. And then it came in the three piece casserole set, and it typically included brown opal lids, which were then replaced by the clear lids as well. So this set was the 473, 474 and 475. Next you have your oval casseroles, your oval divided serving dish, and then the covered casserole, the four quart round covered casserole, also known as a Bertha. And it came with the round knob lid, which was the 664 four quart round casserole Old Orchard pattern clear single knob lid. There was also Harvest promotional items that went with the set. Two of the round casseroles 473 and 475 were offered as promotional items, called Harvest in 1974. They included a brown hugger, if you guys haven't seen that, it's the plastic little stand with the handles that just fits around the casserole dish, and a decorated clear lid with a leaf design. Unlike standard Old Orchard items, the promotional items did not include a brown shade effect at the top of the bowls. The smaller casserole has a dark orange background and the larger has a light orange background. These ones, because they're not the ombre brown, I actually like them a little bit more. Bex Scott: [00:13:30] And last but not least, in the five patterns that I don't really love so much, we have Forest Fancies. So I've been on the fence about Forest Fancies for a very long time because I do like anything with a mushroom on it. And mushrooms are so popular, they resell like crazy. I actually had somebody I sold another set to ask me to source a Forest Fancies set for them. So there's definitely people who love these ones. This, out of all of the ones I've mentioned, is probably the one that I like the most out of the five, but it still unfortunately made my list. So Forest Fancies was released in the mid 1980s on a limited number of items, specifically nesting mixing bowl sets, and round casseroles. The design was sold as Forest in Canada, and it was discontinued during the second half of 1986, when all opal Pyrex ceased production. Backstamps only contain metric units, although boxes included both metric and imperial measures. Since the mid 1970s, kitchen decor was increasingly dominated by earthy elements such as fruits and mushrooms. Like I was saying, that's all really popular right now. All of the the earthy mushroom fruits and vegetables. And Corning's response to the trend resulted in this pattern, and it was designed by Corning artist Mark G. Rubin. Bex Scott: [00:15:00] Reusable plastic containers with airtight lids had replaced the practicality of glass refrigerator and freezer storage dishes, resulting in the discontinuation of many Pyrex items such as oval casseroles, divided dishes, and refrigerator sets. So this one came in a three piece and a four piece mixing bowl set, and the four piece mixing bowl set was discontinued in 83, while the three piece remained available through 1986. And that was the 401 through 404. Then there was the four piece Cinderella Bowl set, and that was the 441 to 444. I haven't actually seen a lot of the Cinderella bowls around where I live, but I have seen quite a few of the mixing bowl sets, and I've never actually seen any of the round casseroles in real life, so that would be kind of a cool set to have, I have to admit. So it was the three piece bake set and serve store set from 1980 to 1985, and they all had clear lids. There was the 471, 472 and the 473, and those ones are actually kind of cute. And in the picture here, they're propped up next to a 470 set with a counter saver. So it was like a placemat for your counter. You could probably cut things on it and it had a little, it has the little Forest Fancies pattern on the bottom right hand corner. Bex Scott: [00:16:28] Okay, so they also have the three piece casserole set in the 473 to 475, as well as the one and a half quart covered round casserole, which was sold individually, so the 474 was sold in the casserole set as well as on its own. You also have the 475, which was sold on its own through 1980 to 1983. Then there was also a two piece casserole set, and that was the 473 to 474 so there's all these different combinations where you could get a three piece, a two piece, buy them individually, and then they talk about the Counter Savers, which were available from 1985 to 1991. And it says two sizes of glass counter savers, marketed as Mushroom, were launched around 85 to match the Forest Fancies design. So you had a 12 by 15 and then a 16 by 20. Those would be cute to have on your countertop. Bex Scott: [00:17:34] Okay, so those are my top five least liked of the standard Pyrex patterns. I'll have another episode that goes into the promotional items that aren't on the top of my list, but in the meantime, I'll add in some more positive things that I like episodes just to balance it out for you guys. But I would love to hear your thoughts on the ones that I don't love and tell me the ones that also aren't your top Pyrex patterns. Follow me on Instagram at Pyrex with Bex and we can start a conversation there. Feel free to send me photos of all of your awesome displays and I will see you next time.

Maybe late-night TV shouldn't be called “late-night TV” anymore, with so many viewers consuming it in clips the morning after, on their phones. Yet the genre's hallmarks — the avuncular host, the sidekick, the band, the monologue, the desk, the guests — linger. Most were stamped on America's consciousness by Johnny Carson.A new biography about an old reliable, Bill Zehme's “Carson the Magnificent” harks back to an era when doom and scroll were biblical nouns and Carson's “Tonight Show” was a clear punctuation mark to every 24-hour chunk of the workweek — less an exclamation point, maybe, than a drawn-out ellipsis. “They want to lie back and be amused and laugh and have a nice, pleasant and slightly … I hate the word risqué … let's say adult end to the day,” is how a producer in 1971 described the millions tuning in from home, to Esquire.Carson went off the air in 1992, after three decades on “Tonight,” and left this Earth in 2005. Zehme, a journalist known for his chummy celebrity profiles, struck a book deal almost immediately but struggled to get purchase on his subject— “the ultimate Interior Man,” he despaired to a source, “large and lively only when on camera” — and then was diagnosed with late-stage cancer. He died himself last year at 64, and a former “legman” and friend, Mike Thomas, has finished the project, giving it a doubly valedictory feel.There were plenty of earlier books to consult, like “King of the Night,” by Laurence Leamer (who wrote about Joanne Carson in “Capote's Women”), “And Now … Here's Johnny,” by a young Nora Ephron, and the memoirs of Carson's eternal second banana, Ed McMahon. His lawyer's tell-all, published in 2013, is tellingly unmentioned. Zehme and Thomas have taken, if not the high road, the yellow brick one, with Carson's Midwestern background left in dusty black and white while the nitty-gritty of show business is buffed to a high Emerald City sheen.Give the authors points for changing up the standard chronological format. We don't get to Carson's birth date of Oct. 23, 1925, in Corning, Iowa, until the 107th page; his rebirth on Oct. 1, 1962, in NBC's Studio 6B, midwifed by Groucho Marx, being the main event.On air, Carson would take on various goofy guises, including the turbaned Carnac the Magnificent. The book's title, and its light glide over his womanizing and sometimes violent alcoholism, suggest that in real life, too, he was a master of disguise and escape. After an unpleasant first date with Jody, he gives her a cactus in a bedpan with a note reading: “Sit on this. It will remind you.” After they married, she would sometimes wake with bruises. “Did he hurt you, Mom?” Joanna's son asks after blowups. Zehme attributes such behavior to a booze-poisoned “doppelgänger”; he credits Carson with destigmatizing divorce without considering how swiftly, today, his whole operation would be canceled.Visiting a proto-couples counselor, Carson “would taste shrinkage for the first time,” but he was far more comfortable overseeing Carson's Couch. He might have been his own best analyst. “My job is to give them that feeling,” he told the “Tonight Show” regular Tony Randall of his drowsing masses, “that there will be a tomorrow.” How very yesterday.
What role do trust, cultural understanding, and collaboration play in global innovation?

We also dive into the challenges and opportunities of operating in a global marketplace, from fostering trust in cross-cultural collaborations to ensuring alignment on core values. Gökhan highlights how these synergies drive innovation and long-term growth, transforming partnerships into powerful engines for progress. Whether you're leading a global team or looking to expand your business internationally, this conversation offers actionable insights into the art and science of collaboration, innovation, and leadership in a fast-changing world.
What would you like to see more of? Let us know!In this episode of Discover Daily, we explore the European Commission's groundbreaking antitrust investigation into Corning's Gorilla Glass business practices. The probe examines potential anticompetitive behavior, including exclusive agreements that require manufacturers to source nearly all their specialized glass from Corning. With Apple's significant investment in Corning's technology at stake, the investigation could reshape the smartphone component industry.We then delve into Rutgers mathematician Pham Tiep's remarkable solutions to two long-standing problems in representation theory. Using character theory, which studies how abstract groups can be represented by matrices, Tiep solved the Height Zero Conjecture and made key advances in Deligne-Lusztig theory. These solutions have practical applications in quantum mechanics, cryptography, and error-correcting codes.The episode concludes with an alarming update from Naples, Italy, where the Phlegraean Fields supervolcano shows increased activity. In May 2024, the area experienced its most intense seismic event in four decades, with 150 earthquakes in five hours. The ground in Pozzuoli has risen 1.3 meters since 2007, and the Solfatara crater now emits 4,000-5,000 tons of CO2 daily. Naples authorities have implemented a comprehensive evacuation plan covering 286,000 residents in response to these developments.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/the-eu-s-gorilla-glass-investi-jdEQIg7ZTIKvNbKGnOeznQhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/algebra-s-representation-theor-yQRBYjutTnuF8APUhIdXEQhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/a-supervolcano-is-waking-up-wW5nLkUjQcSihu.lYffgMgPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.
