The world she discovers is inhabited by the strangest and most endearing characters; The ‘Mad Hatter', the sleepy ‘Dormouse', the ‘Queen of Hearts' and many more.Every child should insist that this story is read to them! And they will remember it for ever, just like Alice. This book was originally illustrated by Sir John Tenniel.

Let me know--thanks!(From - Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll: beginning of Chapter 7.)There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it: a Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head. “Very uncomfortable for the Dormouse,” thought Alice; “only, as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind.”The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it: 1- “No room! No room!” they cried out when they saw Alice coming. “There's plenty of room!” said Alice indignantly, and she sat down in a large arm-chair at one end of the table.2- “Have some wine,” the March Hare said in an encouraging tone.Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. “I don't see any wine,” she remarked.3- “There isn't any,” said the March Hare.“Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it,” said Alice angrily.“It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited,” said the March Hare.4- “I didn't know it was your table,” said Alice; “it's laid for a great many more than three.”“Your hair wants cutting,” said the Hatter. He had been looking at Alice for some time with great curiosity, and this was his first speech.“You should learn not to make personal remarks,” Alice said with some severity; “it's very rude.”5- The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on hearing this; but all he said was, “Why is a raven like a writing-desk?”“Come, we shall have some fun now!” thought Alice. “I'm glad they've begun asking riddles.—I believe I can guess that,” she added aloud.6- “Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it?” said the March Hare.“Exactly so,” said Alice.“Then you should say what you mean,” the March Hare went on.7- “I do,” Alice hastily replied; “at least—at least I mean what I say—that's the same thing, you know.”“Not the same thing a bit!” said the Hatter. “You might just as well say that ‘I see what I eat' is the same thing as ‘I eat what I see'!”8- “You might just as well say,” added the March Hare, “that ‘I like what I get' is the same thing as ‘I get what I like'!”9- “You might just as well say,” added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, “that ‘I breathe when I sleep' is the same thing as ‘I sleep when I breathe'!”10- “It is the same thing with you,” said the Hatter, and here the conversation dropped, and the party sat silent for a minute, while Alice thought over all she could remember about ravens and writing-desks, which wasn't much.Intro & Outro Music: La Pompe Du Trompe by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com Support the showEmail me: swift.water3883@fastmail.comYou can now support my podcasts and classes:Help Barry pay for podcast expenses--thank you!
The Ridiculous Reason a Demolition Project is Delayed. In this episode, the host shares an astonishing story about a demolition project delayed by an unexpected requirement—a mouse license due to the presence of dormice. The host reflects on the broader implications for the construction industry and highlights the unrealistic nature of political promises like Sir Keir Starmer's pledge to build 1.5 million new homes. Combining humour and frustration, the video underscores the bureaucratic hurdles that can hinder significant development projects.

Hello there!! Welcome to Alberts bookshelf. We hope you enjoy listening to Dormouse Has a Cold one of Alberts favourite books.Thanks for Listening.
“They were learning to draw,” the Dormouse went on, yawning and rubbing its eyes, for it was getting very sleepy; “and they drew all manner of things—everything that begins with an M—” “Why with an M?” said Alice. “Why not?” said the March Hare. Alice was silent. The Dormouse had closed its eyes by this time, and was going off into a doze; but, on being pinched by the Hatter, it woke up again with a little shriek, and went on: “—that begins with an M, such as mouse-traps, and the moon, and memory, and muchness—you know you say things are “much of a muchness”—did you ever see such a thing as a drawing of a muchness?” --- 생략된 이야기: 자리를 옮긴 후, 앨리스와 모자 장수가 '그리다'라는 뜻의 'draw'라는 단어를 '끌어당기다'의 뜻으로 사용하여 대화가 엉망이 됐습니다. "얘들은 그림을 배우고 있었어." 겨울잠 쥐가 이야기를 계속하며 하품을 하고 눈을 비볐다. 졸렸기 때문이다. "얘들은 온갖 것을 다 그렸어. M으로 시작하는 모든 걸." "왜 M으로 시작하는 걸 그려요?" 앨리스가 말했다. "왜 그러면 안 되는데?" 삼월 토끼가 말했다. 앨리스는 침묵했다. 이때 겨울잠 쥐는 눈을 감고 꾸벅꾸벅 졸고 있었다. 하지만 모자 장수한테 꼬집히자 작은 비명을 지르며 다시 깨어나 이야기를 계속했다. "M으로 시작하는 거... 쥐덫(mouse-trap), 달(moon), 기억(memory), 많음(muchness)... '그게 그거다'(much of a muchness)라는 말 하잖아. '많음'(muchness)을 그린다는 거 본 적 있어? from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw Dormouse: Ruth Golding https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.
“It was a treacle-well.” “There's no such thing!” Alice was beginning very angrily, but the Hatter and the March Hare went “Sh! sh!” and the Dormouse sulkily remarked, “If you can't be civil, you'd better finish the story for yourself.” “No, please go on!” Alice said very humbly; “I won't interrupt again. I dare say there may be one.” “One, indeed!” said the Dormouse indignantly. However, he consented to go on. “And so these three little sisters—they were learning to draw, you know—” “What did they draw?” said Alice, quite forgetting her promise. “Treacle,” said the Dormouse, without considering at all this time. “I want a clean cup,” interrupted the Hatter: “let's all move one place on.” --- 생략된 이야기: 앨리스는 모자 장수와 약간 신경전을 벌인 다음, 다시 겨울잠 쥐에게, 이야기 속 세 자매가 왜 우물 바닥에서 살았냐고 물었습니다. --- "그게 당밀 우물이었거든." "그런 게 어디 있어요!" 앨리스는 매우 화를 내며 말을 시작했지만, 모자 장수와 삼월 토끼가 '쉬, 쉬'하는 소리를 냈다. 겨울잠 쥐는 부루퉁하게 말했다. "너 예의를 차리지 않으면, 니가 이야기를 끝내는 편이 나을 거야." "아니에요, 계속하세요!" 앨리스가 송구스럽게 말했다. "다시는 안 껴들게요. 그런 게 있겠죠, 뭐." "있다고!" 겨울잠 쥐는 분개하며 말했다. 그러나 이야기를 계속하는 데 동의했다. "그래서 이 세 자매는 그림을 배우고 있었어." "뭘 그렸는데요?" 앨리스가 약속을 잊고 말했다. "당밀." 겨울잠 쥐가 이번에는 조금도 고민하지 않고 말했다. "나는 깨끗한 컵을 원해." 모자 장수가 껴들었다. "모두 한 자리씩 옮기자." from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw Dormouse: Ruth Golding https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.
“They lived on treacle,” said the Dormouse, after thinking a minute or two. “They couldn't have done that, you know,” Alice gently remarked; “they'd have been ill.” “So they were,” said the Dormouse; “very ill.” Alice tried to fancy to herself what such an extraordinary ways of living would be like, but it puzzled her too much, so she went on: “But why did they live at the bottom of a well?” “Take some more tea,” the March Hare said to Alice, very earnestly. “I've had nothing yet,” Alice replied in an offended tone, “so I can't take more.” “You mean you can't take less,” said the Hatter: “it's very easy to take more than nothing.” --- 지난 이야기: 겨울잠 쥐가 이야기를 시작하자, 앨리스는 이야기 속의 세 자매가 무얼 먹고 살았냐고 물었습니다. "얘들은 당밀을 먹고 살았어." 겨울잠 쥐가 1~2분 생각한 후에 말했다. "그랬을 리가 없잖아요." 앨리스가 부드럽게 말했다. "그랬다면 병이 났을 텐데." "그래서 병이 났어." 겨울잠 쥐가 말했다. 앨리스는 그런 특이한 생활 방식이 어떤지 상상하려고 해 보았지만, 너무나 혼란스러워서 말을 계속했다. "그런데 왜 우물 바닥에서 살았어요?" "차를 좀 더 마셔." 삼월 토끼가 매우 진지하게 말했다. "아직 조금도 안 마셨어요." 앨리스가 불쾌한 어조로 대답했다. "그러니까 더 마실 수가 없어요." "덜 마실 수가 없겠지." 모자 장수가 말했다. "조금도 안 마신 상태에서 더 마시는 건 굉장히 쉽잖아." from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw Dormouse: Ruth Golding https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.
The Dormouse slowly opened his eyes. “I wasn't asleep,” he said in a hoarse, feeble voice: “I heard every word you fellows were saying.” “Tell us a story!” said the March Hare. “Yes, please do!” pleaded Alice. “And be quick about it,” added the Hatter, “or you'll be asleep again before it's done.” “Once upon a time there were three little sisters,” the Dormouse began in a great hurry; “and their names were Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie; and they lived at the bottom of a well—” “What did they live on?” said Alice, who always took a great interest in questions of eating and drinking. --- 지난 이야기: 모자 장수와 삼월 토끼는 겨울잠 쥐를 깨우며 이야기를 해달라고 했습니다. 겨울잠 쥐는 천천히 눈을 떴다. "나 안 잤어." 겨울잠 쥐는 약하고 쉰 목소리로 말했다. "니들이 하는 얘기 다 들었어." "우리한테 이야기 해줘!" 삼월 토끼가 말했다. "네, 해 줘요!" 앨리스가 부탁했다. "그리고 빨리 해." 모자 장수가 덧붙였다. "안 그러면 이야기가 끝나기 전에 네가 다시 잠들 테니까." "옛날에 세 자매가 살았어." 겨울잠 쥐는 서둘러 이야기를 시작했다. "이름은 엘시, 래이시, 틸리였어. 얘들은 우물 바닥에 살았어." "뭘 먹고 살았어요?" 언제나 먹고 마시는 문제에 큰 관심을 가졌던 앨리스가 말했다. from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw Dormouse: Ruth Golding https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.
“Then you keep moving round, I suppose?” said Alice. “Exactly so,” said the Hatter: “as the things get used up.” “But what happens when you come to the beginning again?” Alice ventured to ask. “Suppose we change the subject,” the March Hare interrupted, yawning. “I'm getting tired of this. I vote the young lady tells us a story.” “I'm afraid I don't know one,” said Alice, rather alarmed at the proposal. “Then the Dormouse shall!” they both cried. “Wake up, Dormouse!” And they pinched it on both sides at once. --- 지난 이야기: 모자 장수는 시간과 다툰 후, 언제나 티타임이 계속되어 설거지할 시간도 없다고 말했습니다. "그러면 계속 자리를 옮겨 다니는 거예요?" 앨리스가 말했다. "그렇지." 모자 장수가 말했다. "한 자리에 있던 걸 다 쓸 때마다." "다시 처음으로 돌아오면 어떻게 돼요?" 앨리스가 대담하게 물었다. "주제를 바꾸는 게 어떨까?" 삼월 토끼가 하품을 하며 껴들었다. "난 이 얘기가 지루해지고 있어. 꼬마 아가씨가 우리한테 이야기를 하나 해 주는 데 한 표." "전 아는 이야기가 없어요." 앨리스가 그 제안에 상당히 놀라며 말했다. "그럼 겨울잠 쥐가 하기!" 그 둘이 외쳤다. "일어나, 겨울잠 쥐야!" 둘은 겨울잠 쥐를 양쪽에서 동시에 꼬집었다. from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.
“Then you should say what you mean,” the March Hare went on. “I do,” Alice hastily replied; “at least—at least I mean what I say—that's the same thing, you know.” “Not the same thing a bit!” said the Hatter. “You might just as well say that ‘I see what I eat' is the same thing as ‘I eat what I see'!” “You might just as well say,” added the March Hare, “that ‘I like what I get' is the same thing as ‘I get what I like'!” “You might just as well say,” added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, “that ‘I breathe when I sleep' is the same thing as ‘I sleep when I breathe'!” “It is the same thing with you,” said the Hatter --- 지난 이야기: 앨리스가 수수께끼 답을 맞히겠다고 하니, 삼월 토끼가 마음속의 뜻을 말해보라고 합니다. "그럼 네 뜻을 말해 봐." "난 원래 그렇게 해요. 내 말이 곧 내 뜻이니까요. 그건 같은 거예요." "조금도 같은 게 아냐!" 모자 장수가 말했다. "그럴 거면 '내가 먹는 것을 본다'와 '내가 보는 것을 먹는다'도 같다고 해도 되겠네!" "그럴 거면 말이야." 삼월 토끼가 덧붙였다. "'내가 가진 것을 좋아한다'와 '내가 좋아하는 것을 가진다'도 같다고 해도 되겠네!" "그럴 거면 말이야." 겨울잠 쥐가 덧붙였다. 잠꼬대를 하는 것처럼 보였다. "'나는 잠을 잘 때 숨 쉬어'와 '나는 숨 쉴 때 잠을 자'도 같다고 해도 되겠네!" "네 경우에는 그게 똑같아." 모자 장수가 말했다. from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll [목소리] Eric Leach https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-by-lewis-carroll-5/ Narrator: David Goldfarb Alice: Miss Avarice March Hare: Denny Sayers Hatter: Arielle Lipshaw Dormouse: Ruth Golding https://librivox.org/alices-adventures-in-wonderland-dramatic-reading-by-lewis-carroll/ 그 외의 영어 및 우리말 목소리는 인공지능 목소리입니다. 에피소드 이미지는 인공지능으로 생성했습니다.

Aangenaam. Blij u eindelijk te kunnen ontmoeten. Ze noemen mij de ‘Mad Hatter'. Vrij vertaald is dat de ‘Gekke Hoedenmaker'. Dat laatste deel is in elk geval correct. Of toch ongeveer. Ik ben hoedenmaker. Van vader op zoon. En van grootvader op vader. En van overgrootvader op grootvader. Enfin, u snapt het concept wel. Helaas heb ik tegenwoordig zo goed als geen job meer. Dat is normaal, als je in een wereld als Wonderland woont. De koningin had een hoofd dat zodanig groot was, dat er geen hoed op paste. En haar onderdanen, ja, die zijn geen fan van hoeden. Of die verloren hun hoofd als de koningin kwaad werd. Dat is ook mogelijk. En op zo'n moment heeft een hoed nog maar weinig zin, uiteraard.Maar gek? Nee, dat ben ik niet. Gelukkig maar! Ik probeer te geloven dat ik de enige gezonde, normaal denkende geest ben tussen al deze randgevallen. In dit luisterverhaal van Ellen Van de Velde geven een Hoedenmaker, een konijn, de tweeling Tweedledee en Tweedledum, de Red Queen, een kat - zou dat de Cheshire kat zijn? - een Dormouse en uiteraard Alice zelf hun merkwaardige visie op de wereld waarin zij terechtgekomen zijn. Wonderland of Onderland?Het luisterverhaal, in een regie van Ellen Van de Velde en Patrick Bernauw, werd gerealiseerd door de schrijversklassen van die laatste, aan de Academie voor Podiumkunsten in Aalst. U hoort Jos Van Dorpe als de Hoedenmaker, Rita Laureys als het konijn, Joachim Ferier als de tweeling, Veerle Van Vaerenbergh als de Red Queen, Anna van Ro als een kat, Katrien Dierick als de Dormouse en Lili Vanden Wijngaert als Alice.

Alice's adventures in Wonderland is probably one of the most well known and popular children's novels in the English language. Written in 1865 by Charles Lutwidge Dodgeson, better known by his pen name ‘Lewis Carrol'. Lewis, a mathematician, poet, photographer and inventor, tells a surreal fantasy tale, of Alice, who visits a world of unnatural logic after following a very smart White Rabbit, down a rabbit hole. The world she discovers is inhabited by the strangest and most endearing characters; The ‘Mad Hatter', the sleepy ‘Dormouse', the ‘Queen of Hearts' and many more.Every child should insist that this story is read to them! And they will remember it for ever, just like Alice.This book was originally illustrated by Sir John Tenniel.

In this episode, listeners will be taken on a journey to the curious court of the King and Queen of Hearts, where Alice finds herself in the middle of a trial to determine who stole the tarts. As she observes the proceedings, Alice realizes that things are not quite what they seem, with quirky characters like the Hatter and the Dormouse offering testimony that only adds to the confusion. Proceedings are not helped by the fact that the allegedly stolen tarts are indeed in the court in front of everyone, or by the fact that the King is acting as judge and doesn't really seem to know what the rules are.As the jurors scribble on their slates, Alice can't help but feel frustrated at their inability to spell simple words correctly. She even manages to take a squeaky pencil from one of them, causing chaos in the court. With each new witness, Alice becomes more embroiled in the case, and she soon realizes that there's much more to this trial than meets the eye. Will the true thief be caught, or will the King and Queen's reign of confusion continue? Tune in to find out in this charming and whimsical episode, setting us up for the book's climax in the next chapter, where Alice herself is called as witness.
This chapter describes a chaotic tea party between Alice, the March Hare, the Hatter and the Dormouse. When Alice arrives at the table, she is met with the unexpected offer of wine from the March Hare, despite the fact that there is no wine to be seen on the table. The Hatter, who has been observing Alice with great curiosity, decides to make a rude comment about her hair, causing Alice to scold him for his lack of manners.As the conversation continues, the guests begin to ask each other riddles and engage in a game of wordplay. The Hatter asks the famous riddle, "Why is a raven like a writing-desk?" to which Alice confidently replies that she can guess the answer. However, the March Hare and the Hatter challenge her with a series of nonsensical comparisons, leaving Alice feeling flustered.The conversation takes a curious turn when the Hatter asks Alice what day of the month it is, revealing that his watch only tells the date and not the time. This leads to a lively argument between the Hatter and the March Hare about the reliability of the watch and the quality of the butter that was used to lubricate it. Alice, who has been observing the antics of the Hatter and the March Hare, comments on the strange design of the watch, causing the Hatter to question why it should tell the time at all.The chapter ends with the guests sitting in silence as Alice thinks about ravens and writing-desks, and the Hatter and the March Hare continue to bicker over the accuracy of the watch. The scene is full of playful banter and absurdity, making it a delightful and entertaining part of Alice's journey down the rabbit hole.
Our critter friends take shelter in a cave and suddenly find themselves stuck between a grumpy bear and some strange humans. How will they make their way out of this mess?

CHAPTER XI. Who Stole the Tarts? The King and Queen of Hearts were seated on their throne when they arrived, with a great crowd assembled about them—all sorts of little birds and beasts, as well as the whole pack of cards: the Knave was standing before them, in chains, with a soldier on each side to guard him; and near the King was the White Rabbit, with a trumpet in one hand, and a scroll of parchment in the other. In the very middle of the court was a table, with a large dish of tarts upon it: they looked so good, that it made Alice quite hungry to look at them—“I wish they'd get the trial done,” she thought, “and hand round the refreshments!” But there seemed to be no chance of this, so she began looking at everything about her, to pass away the time. Alice had never been in a court of justice before, but she had read about them in books, and she was quite pleased to find that she knew the name of nearly everything there. “That's the judge,” she said to herself, “because of his great wig.” The judge, by the way, was the King; and as he wore his crown over the wig, (look at the frontispiece if you want to see how he did it,) he did not look at all comfortable, and it was certainly not becoming. “And that's the jury-box,” thought Alice, “and those twelve creatures,” (she was obliged to say “creatures,” you see, because some of them were animals, and some were birds,) “I suppose they are the jurors.” She said this last word two or three times over to herself, being rather proud of it: for she thought, and rightly too, that very few little girls of her age knew the meaning of it at all. However, “jury-men” would have done just as well. The twelve jurors were all writing very busily on slates. “What are they doing?” Alice whispered to the Gryphon. “They can't have anything to put down yet, before the trial's begun.” “They're putting down their names,” the Gryphon whispered in reply, “for fear they should forget them before the end of the trial.” “Stupid things!” Alice began in a loud, indignant voice, but she stopped hastily, for the White Rabbit cried out, “Silence in the court!” and the King put on his spectacles and looked anxiously round, to make out who was talking. Alice could see, as well as if she were looking over their shoulders, that all the jurors were writing down “stupid things!” on their slates, and she could even make out that one of them didn't know how to spell “stupid,” and that he had to ask his neighbour to tell him. “A nice muddle their slates'll be in before the trial's over!” thought Alice. One of the jurors had a pencil that squeaked. This of course, Alice could not stand, and she went round the court and got behind him, and very soon found an opportunity of taking it away. She did it so quickly that the poor little juror (it was Bill, the Lizard) could not make out at all what had become of it; so, after hunting all about for it, he was obliged to write with one finger for the rest of the day; and this was of very little use, as it left no mark on the slate. “Herald, read the accusation!” said the King. On this the White Rabbit blew three blasts on the trumpet, and then unrolled the parchment scroll, and read as follows:— “The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts, All on a summer day: The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts, And took them quite away!” “Consider your verdict,” the King said to the jury. “Not yet, not yet!” the Rabbit hastily interrupted. “There's a great deal to come before that!” “Call the first witness,” said the King; and the White Rabbit blew three blasts on the trumpet, and called out, “First witness!” The first witness was the Hatter. He came in with a teacup in one hand and a piece of bread-and-butter in the other. “I beg pardon, your Majesty,” he began, “for bringing these in: but I hadn't quite finished my tea when I was sent for.” “You ought to have finished,” said the King. “When did you begin?” The Hatter looked at the March Hare, who had followed him into the court, arm-in-arm with the Dormouse. “Fourteenth of March, I think it was,” he said. “Fifteenth,” said the March Hare. “Sixteenth,” added the Dormouse. “Write that down,” the King said to the jury, and the jury eagerly wrote down all three dates on their slates, and then added them up, and reduced the answer to shillings and pence. “Take off your hat,” the King said to the Hatter. “It isn't mine,” said the Hatter. “Stolen!” the King exclaimed, turning to the jury, who instantly made a memorandum of the fact. “I keep them to sell,” the Hatter added as an explanation; “I've none of my own. I'm a hatter.” Here the Queen put on her spectacles, and began staring at the Hatter, who turned pale and fidgeted. “Give your evidence,” said the King; “and don't be nervous, or I'll have you executed on the spot.” This did not seem to encourage the witness at all: he kept shifting from one foot to the other, looking uneasily at the Queen, and in his confusion he bit a large piece out of his teacup instead of the bread-and-butter. Just at this moment Alice felt a very curious sensation, which puzzled her a good deal until she made out what it was: she was beginning to grow larger again, and she thought at first she would get up and leave the court; but on second thoughts she decided to remain where she was as long as there was room for her. “I wish you wouldn't squeeze so.” said the Dormouse, who was sitting next to her. “I can hardly breathe.” “I can't help it,” said Alice very meekly: “I'm growing.” “You've no right to grow here,” said the Dormouse. “Don't talk nonsense,” said Alice more boldly: “you know you're growing too.” “Yes, but I grow at a reasonable pace,” said the Dormouse: “not in that ridiculous fashion.” And he got up very sulkily and crossed over to the other side of the court. All this time the Queen had never left off staring at the Hatter, and, just as the Dormouse crossed the court, she said to one of the officers of the court, “Bring me the list of the singers in the last concert!” on which the wretched Hatter trembled so, that he shook both his shoes off. “Give your evidence,” the King repeated angrily, “or I'll have you executed, whether you're nervous or not.” “I'm a poor man, your Majesty,” the Hatter began, in a trembling voice, “—and I hadn't begun my tea—not above a week or so—and what with the bread-and-butter getting so thin—and the twinkling of the tea—” “The twinkling of the what?” said the King. “It began with the tea,” the Hatter replied. “Of course twinkling begins with a T!” said the King sharply. “Do you take me for a dunce? Go on!” “I'm a poor man,” the Hatter went on, “and most things twinkled after that—only the March Hare said—” “I didn't!” the March Hare interrupted in a great hurry. “You did!” said the Hatter. “I deny it!” said the March Hare. “He denies it,” said the King: “leave out that part.” “Well, at any rate, the Dormouse said—” the Hatter went on, looking anxiously round to see if he would deny it too: but the Dormouse denied nothing, being fast asleep. “After that,” continued the Hatter, “I cut some more bread-and-butter—” “But what did the Dormouse say?” one of the jury asked. “That I can't remember,” said the Hatter. “You must remember,” remarked the King, “or I'll have you executed.” The miserable Hatter dropped his teacup and bread-and-butter, and went down on one knee. “I'm a poor man, your Majesty,” he began. “You're a very poor speaker,” said the King. Here one of the guinea-pigs cheered, and was immediately suppressed by the officers of the court. (As that is rather a hard word, I will just explain to you how it was done. They had a large canvas bag, which tied up at the mouth with strings: into this they slipped the guinea-pig, head first, and then sat upon it.) “I'm glad I've seen that done,” thought Alice. “I've so often read in the newspapers, at the end of trials, “There was some attempts at applause, which was immediately suppressed by the officers of the court,” and I never understood what it meant till now.” “If that's all you know about it, you may stand down,” continued the King. “I can't go no lower,” said the Hatter: “I'm on the floor, as it is.” “Then you may sit down,” the King replied. Here the other guinea-pig cheered, and was suppressed. “Come, that finished the guinea-pigs!” thought Alice. “Now we shall get on better.” “I'd rather finish my tea,” said the Hatter, with an anxious look at the Queen, who was reading the list of singers. “You may go,” said the King, and the Hatter hurriedly left the court, without even waiting to put his shoes on. “—and just take his head off outside,” the Queen added to one of the officers: but the Hatter was out of sight before the officer could get to the door. “Call the next witness!” said the King. The next witness was the Duchess's cook. She carried the pepper-box in her hand, and Alice guessed who it was, even before she got into the court, by the way the people near the door began sneezing all at once. “Give your evidence,” said the King. “Shan't,” said the cook. The King looked anxiously at the White Rabbit, who said in a low voice, “Your Majesty must cross-examine this witness.” “Well, if I must, I must,” the King said, with a melancholy air, and, after folding his arms and frowning at the cook till his eyes were nearly out of sight, he said in a deep voice, “What are tarts made of?” “Pepper, mostly,” said the cook. “Treacle,” said a sleepy voice behind her. “Collar that Dormouse,” the Queen shrieked out. “Behead that Dormouse! Turn that Dormouse out of court! Suppress him! Pinch him! Off with his whiskers!” For some minutes the whole court was in confusion, getting the Dormouse turned out, and, by the time they had settled down again, the cook had disappeared. “Never mind!” said the King, with an air of great relief. “Call the next witness.” And he added in an undertone to the Queen, “Really, my dear, you must cross-examine the next witness. It quite makes my forehead ache!” Alice watched the White Rabbit as he fumbled over the list, feeling very curious to see what the next witness would be like, “—for they haven't got much evidence yet,” she said to herself. Imagine her surprise, when the White Rabbit read out, at the top of his shrill little voice, the name “Alice!”

SUMMARYThis week, Laura and Kara are in the studio to review the brand-new Netflix children's show The Creature Cases. This animated series follows two detectives, Sam Snow and Kit Casey, as they solve mysteries and provide plenty of animal education along the way. The 30-minute episodes target the 4–8-year-old set with an ideal blend of adventure and useful facts. OUR THOUGHTSThe Creature Cases theme song is all instrumental, leaving the ladies without an opportunity to lead the show off in song today. Sorry! Kara and Laura love this one, and so do their kids. It strikes them as a Carmen Sandiego, Chip n Dale's Rescue Rangers and Octonauts mashup. In fact, this one came from the creators of Octonauts, which will be an upcoming review. Check out our recent Carmen Sandiego episode here to find out what we thought of it. Chip n Dale is getting the reboot treatment on May 20, 2022 with a cast lead by Andy Samberg, John Mulaney and Will Arnett. They love the educational elements and visits to real life areas. The snappy and engaging storylines make the 30 minutes go by quickly. They also love that empathy was a common theme in some episodes, particularly as applied to animals and the environment. The more children are exposed to the idea of respect for the planet at an early age, the better. One episode about teamwork and conflict resolution brings Laura back to her experience as a therapist when she'd have similar discussions with her clients. There is one animal called a Deer Mouse (not to be mistaken for a Dormouse) and another animal called a Mouse Deer. The mouse deer is the smallest hooved animal on Earth. And it's cute. Look how freakin' cute this thing is. Just look at it. POTENTIALLY PROBLEMATICThey downplayed some of the venomous animals a bit. Gila monsters and snakes can be very dangerous for children. Both Kara and Laura's children could have the occasion to run into venomous animals, given that they live in Texas, and they'd have preferred a bit more focus on the dangers of some of these animals. Otherwise, no additional issues!

At the time of this video it has an MSRP or $75. It sells out every time SideShow is able to get it back in stock. The level of detail is about what you would expect for a statue in this price range. I kinda like that the patterns on the statue are actually etched into it rather than just painted on. This statue will look great on the shelf of any Alice in Wonderland fan.

On this episode of the Post Podcast, Hays Arts Council executive director Brenda Meder shares details about Thursday's Wichita Children's Theatre performance of Alice in Wonderland. Transcript Brenda Meder You know what we've got a lot of good stuff I wanted to share this morning. The first one of which is next week Thursday. Students in Hays don't have school on Friday. So we thought it would be a good night, next week, Thursday, at seven o'clock. In the Beach/Schmidt Performing Arts Center. We have a family theater production of Alice in Wonderland from the Wichita Children's Theater. We've got Wichita Children's Theatre, making their regular one day, one day, you know, Hays visit that we do. And so I believe it's the first graders that we can do a little spacing and Beach/Schmidt instead of two grades, the first graders from around this area, a number of them will be attending a production of Alice during the day, I believe theirs is in the afternoon. And we've also got a production from which Children's Theatre of Schoolhouse Rock live for fourth grade. I love that show. Yeah. And so fourth graders will be attending that in the morning. So we really tried to get we haven't had students in Beach/Schmidt for live theater events, obviously for quite some time. And we're doing some spacing. So we're having less students in there, still trying to really work our, our way through this, you know, as responsibly as we can, but trying to, you know, integrate these things again, and get back a little bit to normal. But what we always do on those days, since so few students are able to attend no matter how we do it. And we know we've got some really little ones that love the family theater, families who love to bring them. So when Thursday, October 28. That's next Thursday. at seven o'clock. These productions are only about 45 minutes, we have a family theater production of Alice in Wonderland, a delightful stage adaptation. You know, the classic story of a little girl with the imagination ends up down the rabbit hole, meeting the White Rabbit, the caterpillar, the Dormouse, and then being invited by the Mad Hatter, to a tea party with the crazy Queen of Hearts. You know, it's all about imagination, and just the worlds that we can create in our mind through imaginations and the power of creativity. And that's what's really the story here with Alice. And we just we love being able to bring that and one of the things that we're really excited about. Ordinarily, even though these companies cost is quite a bit of money, through different underwriting and things and just our desire to reach out. And because we also have the other things paid for during the work, you know, underwritten during the day. Our admission fee for the family productions has always been very minimal, really low ticket prices. Well, I'm really excited and happy to say although we spent 1000s and 1000s of dollars for the company to be here that day, due to an incredible generosity of Memorial gifts given in the name of a wonderful lady named Aletha Denning, whose family some of which live here in Hays, but she loved the arts, she loved creativity, fostering that, especially in children. And we were just so honored that we were the designee for a Aletha's Memorial donations. And we decided that a good way to share this with the larger community instead of just tucking it into a general budget was to have admission be free that night. So I'm really I know and when I mentioned it to her family, they just, they just were thrilled you know because often those things like I said just get tucked into a general budget. So because of the generous Memorial gifts given in honor of Aletha Denning. In fact, her daughter Margie Hammerschmidt was one of our summer gallery exhibition features Marjorie's first big big feature and beautiful paintings by Margie. But it's Marjorie Hammerschmidt's mom, because I had just been there, but there will be no fee, no admission charge for anyone, children or adults to attend that production. And like I said, these these are wonderful professional productions done by a, a touring company out of the Wichita Children's Theater. They've got larger big shows they do down there, but when they traveled there a little bit smaller shows, but no less amazing professional, well done. Great sound systems, but that is on Thursday, October 28 7pm. After the show. The cast always comes out front there's a meet and greet because it is part of the big holiday Halloween weekend with no school the next day, any children that want to wear their Halloween costumes get one more shot to put those beauties on where your Halloween costumes, because we will have some goodie treat bags for all the children when they leave that evening. But again, no fee to attend because of that generosity, and says nothing about the quality of the productions just because of generosity. So seven o'clock next Thursday, October 28. In the Beach/Schmidt Performing Arts Center, Alice in Wonderland for children, and the people who love them. James Bell Do people that want to go do they need tickets or anything or since it's free, they just, Brenda Meder They just show up. And what's great is it works out perfect. We never have a huge crowd for the evening production. It's great if we do but we usually don't, because so many kids do get to come during the day. But it's wonderful when they're not being assigned seating in any way. When people come, we're there greeting them, but just allow them to go in, we only open the floor because that's always most sufficient for the audiences we have. And it's great because in the times that we're still living in, and some people still being a little cautious. You can just sit wherever you want in there. So if there's a space and it's like, let's just sit over here, we're a little more to ourselves or no, we want to take the kids down front more, or whatever it might be. Families get to make that call because there's nothing assigned when you come to the theater. And again get to go for free because of this gift. But yeah, so it's it's easy. Nobody's got to fumble with money. Nobody's got a fumble with tickets. Just come and enjoy this wonderful production. That is a gift on behalf of the Hays Arts Council, and the memorial of Aletha Denny for just the community to enjoy again, no school the next day, everything will be over plenty early, even with the meet and greet after. But still, it makes it nice when there's no school and another excuse to wear those cute Halloween costumes. James Bell Absolutely love it. Oh, well, that's very nice. But I'm wondering to like what's going on down at the gallery because you always have something together Brenda Meder There is. there's so much more. And while we're in the strain, first of all, this the thought process of children. As I know, I think you guys have been promoting it. It's certainly the you know, the D.H.D.C has, there is the Trick or Treat downtown again, for children. And that is next Friday, October 29 from three to 5pm. And I just wanted to remind everyone that the Hays Arts Council will be participating. But we're we're so glad that event takes place through through the bricks in the DHDC organization. And it's from three to five. But instead of coming to the Hays Art Center main building, which is always what we've been out of, we're going to have our Trick or Treat event be on our annex facility. So right on Main 1010 Main. And many, many years ago, one of the Hays High prom believe it or not, was his high prom, use the theme Candyland. And because they needed to repository for all these incredible things they'd made. They've been at the Arts Council, they've actually been loaned out and shared with people, but they were just, they were just, you know, entrusted to us. And so I thought well, let's have a little fun. So I'm going to set up this wonderful giant Candyland theme right inside the front door. So a great photo op as well. So it'll be pretty and fun. And so come in and see our giant Candyland display and instead of candy, we will have a little my little take home. A little complete little packet of a little craft project instead of candy. So stop by take home your little craft project that you can have fun doing later while you're eating your candy. But again, that's from three to five on the bricks in downtown Hays. Friday the 29th so another thing we're participating in and Halloween, but you'll come to our annex 1010 Main Street Hays Art Center annex. Enjoy our giant Candyland display inside and get a take home craft project. And then for our main gallery. We've currently got an exhibition by Frank Nichols. Frank was a longtime instructor at Fort Hays State University's Department of Art and Design. He retired in 99. Frank actually passed away in 2013. But we often get requests and inquiries about his work. He was a brilliant printmaker, and painter, an award winning artist. And I love Frank and we had a great relationship with him at the gallery. And so we still there were still a large body of his work, that his son, it's still been housing. And it hadn't been back in Hays for a long time. So I just thought that would be a really cool thing to do. The colors are rich and warm. It just was a very appropriate thing that felt right on so many levels for this time of the year. Not to mention, it's just amazing art. So that will be up through November, the I think it's the 24th whatever the Wednesday is before Thanksgiving. We'll have it up literally right before the day before Thanksgiving up to that date. And so it's up now. It's our daily feature on Saturdays. And not only are there a lot of wonderful large frameworks, that and the prices are amazing. They're they're less expensive than they were when Frank was alive, and they're gorgeous. A lot of them are framed. And, but we're also have a lot of things that are unframed. In fact, anything that's in a frame, if you said Oh, but I'd want to reframe it anyway, we will take it out of the frame, and you can get it, you know you so you can buy it framed or unframed. And there's a whole big stash of things that aren't framed both the the exquisite hand colored etchings, as well as the ink and acrylic paintings that he was doing later that we're still in that same style, when laborious after he just didn't want to deal with printmaking anymore. But Frank Nichols work at the Arts Council, through the day before Thanksgiving, come in and see that really wonderful, wonderful work. And then want to remind everybody, three weeks from yesterday is the deadline for the big Five State Photography. And we're starting to get some things and they roll in slowly at this point, the flurry comes in that last week. And of course, with everything you know, that's how I am, too. But the call for entries is ongoing three weeks from yesterday is the deadline and go to our website for any information and the details on this project. It's open to any photographer of any age, background experience, preference of subject and process in Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Colorado, through the support of our sponsors, were able to give out $1500 in cash awards across the three categories of nature, people and open and last year we instituted it through the through the pandemic process. But we're doing it again this year because it worked so well in the exhibition looked amazing. You just submit 8 x 10 photographs on paper, and your entry fee and and you know and form and all that kind of stuff. So it's not actual big works matted and framed, where you spend all this money and don't even know if it's going to get accepted or not. It's just eight by 10s, on paper not digitally submitted your photograph on paper. That way you know exactly what the judge is going to look like. Look at those are placed in clear plastic sleeves with rigid cardstock. We put them in large binders, and then I hand deliver those to the judge. The gentleman this year is Mike Sinclair. He is an instructor at KU and a professional photographer. And in fact, he did a workshop this summer here in Hays. Great gentlemen, I think he's going to judge us a great show. And then when those come back to us, we mount them and frame them. And I have had a couple of people ask about specifics, we're very, very aware of what could be cut off or or hidden, their standard commercial cut eight by 10 mats, which means that the opening itself is actually seven and a half inches by nine and a half inches. So if people want to be very much aware of what might get trimmed off, you certainly want to have that overlap. But that standard and for an eight by 10, you know, it's a quarter inch allowance all the way around. And that is the actual window opening of them. And then we put them in these really nice black wood frames, these slightly off white mats, and we put up all the pieces in our gallery. So everything you need to know other details, reiterating what I've said even some other things, they're online, but the deadline is November, the ninth, that'll be the entry submission deadline. So we have time to get them processed in a couple of days, fire them off, and still get them back in time. So we can get those notification cards mailed out. So check that out. If you are a photographer, if you know someone who is. And again, it's all about the image, no reputation, no bio for who the artists are the judges just seeing the images. And however you do it and process it. And what you choose to shoot is up to you. And so we want to make everybody aware of that. And then one of the other things I wanted to mention just to give people a heads up, we've talked we talked about it actually last month already, the Winter Art Walk will be Saturday, December 4, we're moving it to a Saturday like we did with the Spring Artwalk. It worked out beautifully. It gave people more time to really enjoy and engage. Also an opportunity to you know, stroll in and out of some of our downtown businesses through the course of this wonderful day. Eat at one of our fabulous eating and drinking establishments. And it doesn't have to just be downtown locations. But that's always the core area. But again, that will be 10am to 4pm on Saturday, December the fourth and the five state photography show I just talked about, which is always a huge hit with photographers and just our attending audience. That's the day it opens. The photography show always serves as the anchor of that Winter Art walk. And again, that will be Saturday December the fifth from 10 to four. And the reason I'm mentioning it now is not so much for the guests who come but for artists or locations who want to participate. There's no fee as a site as an artist. Nobody's got to send Commission's back to us. It is just a wonderful opportunity for our community to be engaging in the arts. And with it being in December we get to do it during the daylight hours when maybe it won't be quite as frigid as we've had a lot of that those evening you know first Friday in December exhibitions, it'll be light, hopefully a little warmer with a whole lot more time to just enjoy engage and make your way through our community. James Bell Very cool. Is that the same day as the frost Fest Parade?I know that's like no, no, Brenda Meder No, the Frost Fest Parade. I believe is the next weekend. The tree lighting for downtown is the Friday night before and that's often been a part of our of the Winter Art Walk is the tree lighting, but we've moved it to Saturday but what is cool one of the events will be the downtown farmers art market, you know the art market the art and craft market that they do every year. I think it's indoors I'm not sure where but I know that that event will be on the Saturday so it will be part it will be one of the features of the Art Walk the winter Art Walk on Saturday, as well as a lot of other really cool things that are shaping up. So it's going to be a wonderful day tree lighting the night before and the frost Fest Parade I believe the following weekend. So yeah, amazing things in our downtown and across our community really at the holidays. I will even give a plug I know Terry Crull was in a great thing coming up this next Friday night with the concert down town the symphony on Sunday, I'll even give them a shout out. They've got their children's symphony concert on Sunday afternoon, check their Facebook page and website. It's just so wonderful, all the great arts, things that go on in our community, for children, for adults, for the community as a whole. And a lot of times I promote those on our Facebook page, whether they're our events or not, because anything that makes our community better and richer. We're all in this together. And so you can definitely follow our Facebook page because I try to share all the good news from all these arts and cultural things. And go to our website for more information that's just haysartscouncli.org but between our Facebook page and our website, we will get the word out as best we can if not come by or give us a call.

Chapter 108"But the fault is not mine. Believe me, little Dormouse,the fault isall Lamp-Wick's.""And who is this Lamp-Wick?""A classmateof mine. I wanted to return home. I wantedto be obedient. I wanted to study andto succeedin school, but Lamp-Wick said to me, `Why do you wantto waste yourtime studying? Why do you want to goto school? Come with me to the Land ofToys. Therewe'll never study again. There we can enjoyourselves and be happy from morntill night.'""And why did you follow the advice of that falsefriend?""Why? Because, my dear little Dormouse, I am aheedlessMarionette--heedless and heartless. Oh! If I had onlyhad a bit ofheart, I should never have abandonedthat good Fairy, who loved me so well andwho has beenso kind to me! And by this time, I should no longer be aMarionette.I should have become a real boy, like all thesefriends of mine! Oh, if I meetLamp-Wick I am goingto tell him what I think of him--and more, too!"Afterthis long speech, Pinocchio walked to the doorof the room. But when he reachedit, remembering hisdonkey ears, he felt ashamed to show them to the publicandturned back. He took a large cotton bag from a shelf,put it on his head, andpulled it far down to his very nose. Thusadorned, he went out. He looked for Lamp-Wick everywhere,along the streets, inthe squares, inside the theatres,everywhere; but he was not to be found. Heasked everyonewhom he met about him, but no one had seen him. In desperation,hereturned home and knocked at the door. "Whois it?" asked Lamp-Wick from within. "Itis I!" answered the Marionette. "Waita minute."After a full half hour the door opened. Another surpriseawaitedPinocchio! There in the room stood his friend,with a large cotton bag on hishead, pulled far down to his very nose. “可错的不是我。小土拨鼠,请你相信我,错的全是小灯芯!……” “这个小灯芯是谁?” “是我的一个同学。我想回家,我想听话,我想继续学习,我想有出息……可小灯芯对我说:‘你干吗要学习,自讨苦吃呢?你干吗想上学呢?还是跟我走吧,上“玩儿国”去。到了那里,咱们就再不用学习了,可以从早玩到晚,老是快快活活的。'” “那你为什么听这个假朋友的话,听这个坏同学的话呢?” “为什么……我的小土拨鼠,因为我是个木偶,没头脑……没心肝。噢,我有一点儿心肝就好了,我就不会抛弃好仙女了。她像妈妈一样爱我,为我做了那么多的事!……而且我这会儿也不再是个木偶了……我已经是个真正的孩子,跟所有的孩子一样!噢……我要是碰到小灯芯,我要叫他倒霉!我要骂他一通,骂他个狗血喷头!……” 他说着就要出去。可他一到门口,就想起那对驴耳朵,真不好意思让人看到。他发明了一个什么办法呢?他拿起一顶棉的大尖帽戴在头上,一直拉到鼻尖那儿。 他这才出去,到处找小灯芯。他在街上找,在广场上找,在小戏棚里找。到处都找遍了,就是找不到小灯芯。他在街上见人就问,可谁也不知道。 于是他上小灯芯家去找,到了他家就敲门。 “谁呀,”小灯芯在里面问。 “是我!”木偶回答说。 “等一等,我这就给你开门。” 过了半个钟头门才打开。诸位想象一下皮诺乔有多么奇怪,因为他走进屋子,看见他的朋友小灯芯也戴着一顶棉的大尖帽,也一直拉到鼻子底下。

Chapter 107 "What is the matter, dear little neighbor?""I amsick, my little Dormouse, very, very sick--andfrom an illness which frightensme! Do you understandhow to feel the pulse?""Alittle.""Feel mine then and tell me if I have a fever."TheDormouse took Pinocchio's wrist between her paws and,after a few minutes,looked up at him sorrowfully and said: "My friend, I am sorry, but I must give you some very sadnews.""What is it?""You have a very badfever.""But what fever is it?""The donkeyfever.""I don't know anything about that fever," answered theMarionette,beginning to understand even too well what was happening to him. "Then I will tell you all about it," said the Dormouse. "Know then that, within two or three hours, you will nolongerbe a Marionette, nor a boy.""What shall I be?""Within twoor three hours you will become a real donkey,just like the ones that pull thefruit carts to market.""Oh, what have I done? What have I done?"cried Pinocchio,grasping his two long ears in his hands and pulling and tuggingatthem angrily, just as if they belonged to another. "My dear boy," answered the Dormouse to cheer him up abit,"why worry now? What is done cannot be undone7, you know. Fate has decreed that all lazy boys who come to hate booksandschools and teachers and spend all their days with toysand games must sooner orlater turn into donkeys.""But is it really so?" asked theMarionette, sobbing8 bitterly."Iam sorry to say it is. And tears now are useless.You should have thought of all this before." “你怎么啦,我的好邻居?” “我病了,我的小土拨鼠,病得很厉害……害的这种病可真叫我害怕!你会把脉吗?” “会一点。” “那就看看我有没有发烧吧。” 土拨鼠举起右前爪,把过皮诺乔的脉以后,叹着气说: “我的朋友,我真抱歉,可也只好告诉你一个不好的消息!……” “什么消息?” “你在发高烧!……” “发什么样的高烧,” “发驴子的高烧。” “什么驴子的高烧,我不明白!”木偶嘴里这么回答,其实他心里太明白了。 “那我来给你解释。”土拨鼠说下去,“你要知道,在两三个钟头之内,你就不再是一个木偶,也不是一个孩子……” “那是什么呢?” “在两三个钟头之内,你就要变成一头真正的驴子,跟拉车和驮白菜生菜到菜市去的驴子一模一样。” “噢!我真苦命啊!我真苦命啊!”皮诺乔哭叫着,用手抓住两只耳朵,拼命地又拉又拔,好像这是别人的耳朵, “我亲爱的,”土拨鼠为了安慰他,对他说,“你想怎么办呢?这是注定了的。圣人早就在书上写着,懒孩子不爱书本,不爱学校,不爱老师,整天玩乐,早晚都要变成这种小驴子。” “这是真的吗?”木偶哭着问。 “不幸得很,这是真的!如今哭也没用。早就该想到!”7 undone a.未做完的,未完成的参考例句:·He left nothing undone that needed attention.所有需要注意的事他都注意到了。8 sobbingⅠ adj.湿透的参考例句:·I heard a child sobbing loudly. 我听见有个孩子在呜呜地哭。·Her eyes were red with recent sobbing. 她的眼睛因刚哭过而发红。

Ofthe kind which Pinocchio had on thateventful morning of his life, there are butfew. What was it? I will tell you, my dear little readers. On awakening1, Pinocchio put his hand up to hishead andthere he found--Guess! He found that, during the night, his ears had grownat least ten fullinches! You must know that the Marionette2, even from hisbirth, had very smallears, so small indeed that to thenaked eye they could hardly be seen. Fancy howhe feltwhen he noticed that overnight those two dainty organshad become as longas shoe brushes! He went in search of a mirror, but not finding any,he just filled abasin with water and looked at himself. There he saw what he never could have wished to see. His manly3 figure was adorned4 and enriched by abeautifulpair of donkey's ears. I leave you to think of the terrible grief, the shame,the despair ofthe poor Marionette. He began to cry, to scream, to knock his head againstthe wall, butthe more he shrieked5, the longer and themore hairy grewhis ears. At those piercing shrieks6, a Dormouse came into theroom, afat little Dormouse, who lived upstairs. SeeingPinocchio so grief-stricken, sheasked him anxiously:这是一个什么晴天霹雳呢? 我亲爱的小读者,我这就来告诉大家,这个晴天霹雳就是:皮诺乔早晨醒来,自然而然地伸手去抓头,他一抓头就发现…… 诸位猜他发现了什么? 他大吃一惊,竟发现他的两只耳朵变得比手掌还大。 诸位知道,木偶有生以来,两只耳朵是很小很小的,小得连看也看不见!诸位想象一下,当他发现两只耳朵一夜工夫变得那么长,长得像两把地板刷子的时候,他是多么吃惊啊。 他马上去找镜子照,可是镜子没找到,就在洗脸架上的洗脸盆里倒上水,往水里一看,就看见了他永远不想看见的事情,也就是说,他看见他的影子在头上添了一对妙不可言的驴耳朵。 请诸位想想,可怜的皮诺乔这一来是多么苦恼、害臊和绝望啊! 他开始又哭又叫,用脑袋去撞墙。可他越是绝望,耳朵长得越长,直到耳朵尖都长出毛来。 听到这哇哇叫声,住楼上的一只漂亮土拨鼠走进木偶的屋子,看见他像发了疯似的,就关心地问他1 awakening n.觉醒,醒悟 adj.觉醒中的;唤醒的参考例句:·the awakening of interest in the environment 对环境产生的兴趣·People are gradually awakening to their rights. 人们正逐渐意识到自己的权利。2 marionetten.木偶参考例句:·With this marionette I wish to travel through the world.我希望带着这个木偶周游世界。·The development of marionette had a great influence on the future development of opera.木偶戏的发展对以后的戏曲有十分重要的影响。3 manlyadj.有男子气概的;adv.男子般地,果断地参考例句:·The boy walked with a confident manly stride.这男孩以自信的男人步伐行走。·He set himself manly tasks and expected others to follow his example.他给自己定下了男子汉的任务,并希望别人效之。4 adorned[计]被修饰的参考例句:·The walls were adorned with paintings. 墙上装饰了绘画。·And his coat was adorned with a flamboyant bunch of flowers. 他的外套上面装饰着一束艳丽刺目的鲜花。5 shriekedv.尖叫( shriek的过去式和过去分词 )参考例句:·She shrieked in fright. 她吓得尖叫起来。·Li Mei-t'ing gave a shout, and Lu Tzu-hsiao shrieked, "Tell what? 李梅亭大声叫,陆子潇尖声叫:“告诉什么? 来自汉英文学 - 围城6 shrieksn.尖叫声( shriek的名词复数 )v.尖叫( shriek的第三人称单数 )参考例句:·shrieks of fiendish laughter 恶魔般的尖笑声·For years, from newspapers, broadcasts, the stages and at meetings, we had heard nothing but grandiloquent rhetoric delivered with shouts and shrieks that deafened the ears. 多少年来, 报纸上, 广播里, 舞台上, 会场上的声嘶力竭,装腔做态的高调搞得我们震耳欲聋。 来自《现代汉英综合大词典》

In January 1917, a German encrypted message was intercepted by a small relay station in Cornwall and passed to the secretive world of the code breakers inhabiting the dingy Room 40 in the Admiralty building in London's Whitehall.In the room were some of the finest minds in England, led by the enigmatic and charismatic Oxbridge scholar Albert "Dilly" Knox. The team, including a man known as "The Dormouse" and a cake-loving Vicar called Monty, decrypted the message, and its 166-word content was political and diplomatic dynamite, that changed the entire course of the Great War.Known to this day as The Zimmerman Telegramme, the explosive contents caused the previously neutral United States to join the war on the side of the Allies. What did the telegramme say? How did the British intercept it, and why did the contents change the course of World War One?

AESOP's (An Edited Saucerful Of Prog's) FABle: Rob The Dormouse On Fire...
The Mad Hatter and the March Hare are having tea at a large table set outside the March Hare's home with their elbows leaning on a sleeping Dormouse. They suggest there isn't enough space at the table for Alice, but she sits anyway. Alice is offered wine by the March Hare, but none is available. Alice accuses the March Hare of being impolite, to which he replies that she was impolite in sitting down without being invited. When Alice criticizes him for his rudeness, he ignores her and answers with a riddle: "Why is a raven like a writing desk?" When Alice tries to solve the riddle, she learns that he doesn't know it either. She advises him not to waste time asking riddles for which there are no answers. Time is a "him," not an "it," the Mad Hatter states calmly. He goes on to say that Time has been agitated since the Queen of Hearts said the Mad Hatter was "murdering time" while performing a bad song. Since then, Time has remained set at six o'clock, indicating that they are still having tea. The March Hare gets bored with this conversation and says he'd like to hear a story, so they wake up the Dormouse. The Dormouse tells a story, and Alice interrupts it with so many questions that the Dormouse becomes offended. Alice keeps asking questions until the Mad Hatter insults her, at which point she storms off in disgust. Alice comes across a tree with a door while walking through the woods. She returns to the great hall after entering the door. Alice goes to the table with the key and uses the mushroom to grow large enough to reach the key, then shrink small enough to fit through the door. She passes through the door and eventually reaches the garden passageway. https://chimesradio.com http://onelink.to/8uzr4g https://www.instagram.com/vrchimesradio/ https://www.facebook.com/chimesradio/ Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/chimesradioSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With last episode being our last look (for now, anyway!) into Astounding Stories, we now delve into more popular, palatable classics! First up is Alice in Wonderland, whose novelisation I prefer greatly to the Disney movie. Not to say the Disney movie's bad or anything, I just find the original story more enjoyable! (Though Through the Looking Glass's mathematics type tangents are even better!) Join us as we find out just what's different between the book, and its many adaptations! I hope you'll find you're just as fond of the varied details as I am. You can find the text (to follow along with) here: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/29848 We go live each week with a new, live episode of the show on Fridays, over on https://www.twitch.tv/glacier_nester (or at least, we will when all 60 existing episodes go up!)
Last time, we left off on the mock-turtle telling us a story! Just what sort of yarn does this calf-head have to give us? One way to find out, and that's to listen to this here episode! After all, we wouldn't want to get stuck on a cliffhanger forever, hanging on like that really tires out the arms! We then dive into a little short story, Shadows by Tony Richards, and quite enjoy it for that matter. Next episode has me of two minds, if you want a hint at what's hiding beneath the surface!

It is a challenging site with overhanging woods on the north side and open pasture to the south. A fabulously peaceful spot with a natural garden where plants are allowed to self-seed. There are lots of mixed borders around a pond for wildlife, a formal garden leading to a brick dovecote, a courtyard garden around a water sculpture, a large gravel garden, wild-flower meadows, woodland planting and a large pond with a boardwalk at the end of the woodland. There are many unusual plants and lots of color and interest throughout the summer with an extensive range of interesting plants. The formal garden with dovecote houses 50 white doves while glorious mixed borders, double herbaceous borders of hot colors, large gravel garden, several ponds, arboretum, wildflower meadow, and 13 acres of woodland. A natural garden on a challenging site that fits the setting with magnificent views. There are also interesting and unusual trees, shrubs, and perennials in this pesticide-free haven."

Important Events 1713 Today is the anniversary of the death of the passionate plantsman Bishop Henry Compton. Compton was famous for his substantial garden at Fulham Palace, which was home to more than a thousand exotic plants. Naturally, Compton was drawn to rare plants and new specimens. And, his position as a bishop gave him access to the botanical discoveries that were being sent to England from the American colonies. For instance, we know from his correspondence, that Compton was especially intrigued about the swamp honeysuckle from Virginia. Compton sent a young priest and botanist named John Bannister to Virginia to botanize for him. Banister went on to help found the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg. Bannister proved to be an excellent contact for Compton. He sent him seeds to grow at Fulham Palace, along with detailed notes about his discoveries. Sadly, Banister's life was cut short when he was accidentally shot during an expedition. Like any avid gardener, Compton sometimes felt a little guilty about the amount of money he spent on gardening. So, as penance, he not only collected plants for his own garden, but he also was a patron to prominent botanical figures - like the Tradescants. 1794 Today is the birthday of the botanist Frances Stackhouse Acton. Frances was the daughter of Thomas Andrew Knight, who served as the second president of the Royal Horticultural Society. Thomas assumed the position at the urging of his friend Joseph A Banks. Now, Knight's inclination was always to turn inward - he was a little introverted. Banks helped him overcome that. Thomas Knight had inherited 10,000 acres of land, and he used the property to conduct all kinds of experiments on plants like strawberries, cabbages, and peas. Frances' father encouraged her to pursue her education, and she often recalled that, "the hours spent with [my father] in his study, or in his garden, as amongst [my] happiest recollections". A born pragmatist like her father, Frances assisted him with his breeding efforts, which were always designed to help make better plants to feed the masses. Francis contributed to her father's work through drawing. She illustrated many of her father's writings, and she established herself as both... "an accomplished botanist and botanical artist." 1799 Today is the anniversary of the death of the botanist and entomologist William Curtis, the creator, and publisher of the influential Curtis Botanical Magazine. William founded the magazine in 1787. Curtis Botanical Magazine made him wealthy, and he often remarked that it had brought him "pudding and praise". William had started out life as an apothecary, but in short order, he discovered that it could not hold his interest. Sir James Edward Smith recalled that William loved being a naturalist more than working in the city. He wrote, "The Apothecary was soon swallowed up in the botanist, and the shop exchanged for a garden!" William was a founder of the Linnaean Society, and he also authored a book about the botany of London called Flora Londiniensis. In 1779, William transformed his Lambeth garden into the London Botanic Garden. William wanted his garden to be a place where visitors could learn all about plants and their uses - not just for food - but in medicine and cooking as well. William was at heart a pragmatist. When William heard from visitors that they needed a resource to help with growing the plants they were acquiring, William came up with the idea for his magazine. On February 1, 1787, the very first Curtis Botanical magazine was published, "for the youth of ... ladies, gentlemen, and gardeners ... who wish to become scientifically acquainted with the plants they cultivate." The magazine owes much of its success to William's promise to provide his readers with helpful illustrations. Artists, like James Sowerby, helped ensure the magazine's success. In addition to his legacy left by his flora and his magazine, the genus Curtisia honors William Curtis. 1832 On this day in 1832, the author and poet Sir Walter Scott arrived back at his incredible home called Abbottsford on the banks of the River Tweed in the beautiful Scottish borders. Scott's health was failing him, and he asked that a bed be set up in the dining room so that he could look out and see the river, the trees, and his magnificent gardens. Lying in that room, Scott was surrounded by portraits of his ancestors. And when he was finally near death in September of that same year - just two short months later - ever the author, Sir Walter Scott, is said to have requested a quill and some paper. And, indeed, he died with a pen in his hand. Abbotsford is impressive, and it seemed destined to become a public place. In 1853 his granddaughter Charlotte inherited the estate. Charlotte cleverly decided to add a path in the Morris Garden, which would bring visitors around to the side, keeping part of the estate and gardens private for the family. During Scott's time at Abbotsford, he added oak and pine trees. He expanded the walled gardens. And today, niches in the south and west walls still hold Scott's collection of Roman panels and other artifacts. Scott's gardener William Bogie added, "narrow beds of hollyhocks, and roses along the arcade, and a leafy, honeysuckle-covered pergola." With paths and hedging that divide the garden into four quarters, Scott's walled garden is still a sight to see. Unearthed Words Today I'm sharing a poem by A.A. Milne, the English author and poet. He became famous for his story about Winnie the Pooh, but he also wrote this wonderful poem called "The Dormouse and the Doctor." It's a favorite among gardeners because it prominently features three favorite flowers: delphiniums, geraniums, and chrysanthemums. There once was a Dormouse who lived in a bed Of delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red), And all the day long he'd a wonderful view Of geraniums (red) and delphiniums (blue). A Doctor came hurrying round, and he said: "Tut-tut, I am sorry to find you in bed. Just say 'Ninety-nine', while I look at your chest… Don't you find that chrysanthemums answer the best?" The Dormouse looked round at the view and replied (When he'd said "Ninety-nine") that he'd tried and he'd tried, And much the most answering things that he knew Were geraniums (red) and delphiniums (blue). The Doctor stood frowning and shaking his head, And he took up his shiny silk hat as he said: "What the patient requires is a change," and he went To see some chrysanthemum people in Kent. The Dormouse lay there, and he gazed at the view Of geraniums (red) and delphiniums (blue), And he knew there was nothing he wanted instead Of delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red). The Doctor came back and, to show what he meant, He had brought some chrysanthemum cuttings from Kent. "Now these," he remarked, "give a much better view Than geraniums (red) and delphiniums (blue)." They took out their spades and they dug up the bed Of delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red), And they planted chrysanthemums (yellow and white). "And now," said the Doctor, "we'll soon have you right." The Dormouse looked out, and he said with a sigh: "I suppose all these people know better than I. It was silly, perhaps, but I did like the view Of geraniums (red) and delphiniums (blue)." The Doctor came round and examined his chest, And ordered him Nourishment, Tonics, and Rest. "How very effective," he said, as he shook The thermometer, "all these chrysanthemums look!" The Dormouse turned over to shut out the sight Of the endless chrysanthemums (yellow and white). "How lovely," he thought, "to be back in a bed Of delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red)." The Doctor said, "Tut! It's another attack!" And ordered him Milk and Massage-of-the-back, And Freedom-from-worry and Drives-in-a-car, And murmured, "How sweet your chrysanthemums are!" The Dormouse lay there with his paws to his eyes, And imagined himself such a pleasant surprise: "I'll pretend the chrysanthemums turn to a bed Of delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red)!" The Doctor next morning was rubbing his hands, And saying, "There's nobody quite understands These cases as I do! The cure has begun! How fresh the chrysanthemums look in the sun!" The Dormouse lay happy, his eyes were so tight He could see no chrysanthemums, yellow or white. And all that he felt at the back of his head Were delphiniums (blue) and geraniums (red). And that is the reason (Aunt Emily said) If a Dormouse gets in a chrysanthemum bed, You will find (so Aunt Emily says) that he lies Fast asleep on his front with his paws to his eyes. — A.A. Milne, English author and poet, The Dormouse and the Doctor Grow That Garden Library The Himalayan Garden by Jim Jermyn This book came out almost twenty years ago in 2001, and the fantastic subtitle is: Growing Plants from the Roof of the World. Love that subtitle. Hortus raved about this book and said, "If you are among those whose pulse-rate has been kick-started by the 'Subalpine Zone' chapter, then take care as you proceed to the one on the alpine zone: you may need oxygen to take in the contents of this high altitude chapter. . . . Packed with useful and practical advice on how to establish and maintain these plants. . . . A most useful reference, it will certainly earn its space on many a keen grower's shelves." And boy, were they right. The Himalayan Garden by Jim Jermyn is 320 pages of know-how regarding cultivating species that are native to the Himalayas. Only Jim could share these nuggets of Himalayan plant wisdom. What are some Himalayan natives? Think Euphorbia, Gentiana, Meconopsis, Primula, Rhododendron, and more. You can get a copy of The Himalayan Garden by Jim Jermyn and support the show, using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $20. Today's Botanic Spark 1930 Today is the anniversary of the death of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The Spring before he died, Doyle was bedridden. However, one morning, unattended, he got up and managed to go out to his garden. Doyle much enjoyed being in his garden. He did most of his writing in the garden. He once remarked, "What a lovely thing a rose is!" But that spring morning in 1930, his family found him lying on the ground with one hand clutching his heart and the other... holding a single white snowdrop. He languished until July 7, 1930, when he passed away with his family at his bedside. His last words were to his wife. He whispered, "You are wonderful." After his death, newspaper accounts shared that, on a beautiful summer day, he was buried in the garden. The garden had been Doyle's special retreat, and the place he was buried is right next to his garden hut. After it was built, the hut was the place Doyle went to write his stories about one of the world's best-loved detectives: Sherlock Holmes. Now, history tells us that over 200 people attended Doyle's funeral. And, on that day, so many wreaths were sent from all over the world that they were spread over the large paddock west of the home and that they covered over an acre of land with blooms. Accounts of the funeral say that when Conan Doyle's coffin was placed in the grave, "Lady Doyle kissed a rose and threw it in." Lady Jean Conan Doyle continued to live at Windlesham for another decade until her death on June 27, 1940. She was buried next to her husband in the garden.

Alice has tea with the infuriating Mad Hatter, March Hare and Dormouse. She then plays a bizarre game of croquet with the Queen of Hearts. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll Read aloud, produced and with music by Stephen Alexander. Cover illustration by Benjamin Callery.
January 27 marks the 188th anniversary of Lewis Carrol's birthday. Many people know him as the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Many don't know that he was also a mathematician, who wove logic into his story. If you are interested in seeing diagrams and an explanation of the logic that he used in the Mad Hatter Tea Party dialogue, or are interested in reading literature by scientists and mathematicians, www.MathScienceHistory.com !

I’m mad. You’re mad.” “How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice. “You must be,” said the Cat, “or you wouldn’t have come here.” (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 6) “Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?” “That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat. “I don’t much care where–” said Alice. “Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,” said the Cat. “–so long as I get SOMEWHERE,” Alice added as an explanation. “Oh, you’re sure to do that,” said the Cat, “if you only walk long enough.” (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 6) ‘I could tell you my adventures–beginning from this morning,’ said Alice a little timidly: ‘but it’s no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then.’ (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 10) “Who are YOU?” said the Caterpillar. This was not an encouraging opening for a conversation. Alice replied, rather shyly, “I–I hardly know, sir, just at present– at least I know who I WAS when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.” (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 5) Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.” “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” (Through the Looking Glass, Chapter 5) The Hatter opened his eyes very wide on hearing this; but all he said was, “Why is a raven like a writing-desk?” “Come, we shall have some fun now!” thought Alice. “I’m glad they’ve begun asking riddles. — I believe I can guess that,” she added aloud. “Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it?” said the March Hare. “Exactly so,” said Alice. “Then you should say what you mean,” the March Hare went on. “I do,” Alice hastily replied; “at least–at least I mean what I say–that’s the same thing, you know.” “Not the same thing a bit!” said the Hatter. “You might just as well say that ‘I see what I eat’ is the same thing as ‘I eat what I see’!” “You might just as well say,” added the March Hare, “that ‘I like what I get’ is the same thing as ‘I get what I like’!” “You might just as well say,” added the Dormouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, “that ‘I breathe when I sleep’ is the same thing as ‘I sleep when I breathe’!” (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 7) “Tut, tut, child!” said the Duchess. “Everything’s got a moral, if only you can find it.” (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Chapter 9) Link to more: http://fromringtoveil.com/AIW We have another themed show planned "Sport Themed weddings".
