Più di qualcuno mi ha chiesto: "com'è stato suonare con Moriconi e Guarini durante il Bass Day?", e io da bravo YouTuber ho deciso di raccontarvelo in un video, senza nascondervi alcun dettaglio, anzi... Soffermandomi proprio su quelli più scomodi :D. Il Bass Day si è svolto a Latina, presso il MonstarLab, nuovissima e accogliente struttura dedicata alla alla musica a 360°. Avere occasione di confrontarsi su di un bel palco con due grandi protagonisti del basso italiano è stata una grandissima opportunità, ed è stato un vero piacere per me (e per alcuni altri partecipanti) coglierla. Il video include anche alcuni consigli su come creare un Walking Bass vario su strutture ripetitive come quella dell'Anatole o Rhythm Changes, quindi seguitelo fino alla fine per cogliere questi (spero) utili spunti. Tra le varie cose, viene anche spiegata la storia dell'Anatole e il motivo per cui è una forma jazzistica così popolare. Buona visione! Vai al Video
Al termine dell'incredibile giornata del Bass Day tenutosi presso il MonstarLab di Latina, e subito prima di andare a cena tutti insieme, abbiamo avuto il piacere di fare una bella chiacchierata con Massimo Moriconi e Mario Guarini (ma non solo...). Due straordinari musicisti e insegnanti che hanno condiviso con noi la loro passione per la musica e l'insegnamento, offrendo preziosi consigli sulla tecnica, l'interpretazione, lo studio del proprio strumento e il percorso da seguire per diventare un professionista di successo. Tra gli argomenti trattati si è parlato molto di didattica musicale ieri e oggi, e sono stati ripercorsi i tempi d'oro dell'Università della Musica di Roma, con al centro di tutto la vita da musicista.

Steve chats with Jackie Guarini, Tyson2.0's Chief Marketing Officer.
In questo articolo parleremo di un momento molto importante per la storia d'Italia. Tutti sanno che oggi l'Italia è una repubblica, ma non è sempre stato così! Infatti, la Repubblica italiana è nata nel 1946, dopo un referendum popolare. Prima di questa data, l'Italia era una monarchia, cioè governata da un re, a quell'epoca Vittorio Emanuele II di Savoia. Quando l'Italia è diventata ufficialmente un Paese unito (il 17 marzo 1861), infatti, si chiamava Regno d'Italia. In questa lezione, parleremo proprio della famiglia reale italiana dei Savoia! I SAVOIA - La storia della famiglia reale italiana Origini della famiglia Innanzitutto, da dove deriva il nome Savoia? Il nome viene dalla regione geografica della “Savoia”, che si trova nel sud della Francia. Tuttavia, sull'origine della famiglia non si hanno notizie certe né documenti, persi a causa di guerre e incendi, ma sembrerebbe che la dinastia sabauda (questo è l'aggettivo che si riferisce ai Savoia) affondi le sue radici proprio in quella zona francese. Il capostipite della famiglia fu molto probabilmente Umberto I, che proprio nella regione francese della Savoia divenne conte, intorno all'anno 1000 d.C., pensate un po'! Dopo questa figura non si sa molto. E quello che si sa è stato probabilmente inventato dalla famiglia stessa, per ricollegare la propria immagine a quella di personaggi molto importanti. Circolavano, ad esempio, voci che Umberto I fosse nipote di Ottone II, imperatore del Sacro Romano Impero, perché i Savoia volevano far valere il proprio potere all'interno dell'impero di cui facevano parte, dimostrando di discendere da una dinastia imperiale. In ogni caso, Umberto ebbe due figli. Uno di questi, Oddone, sposò Adelaide di Susa, margravia di Torino. Fu proprio grazie a questo importante matrimonio che i Savoia ottennero i primi territori in Italia. I Savoia in Italia La famiglia reale italiana dei Savoia si trasferì solo nel XVI secolo, quando la sede centrale fu spostata da Chambery (in Savoia) a Torino: è stato il Duca Emanuele Filiberto a deciderlo. E così si apre la stagione moderna della casata, con Torino che diventa una metropoli europea e si abbellisce grazie alle opere di architetti urbanisti (Guarini, Juvarra). Il potere della famiglia reale era, però, ancora abbastanza ristretto. Il salto di qualità avvenne durante la guerra di successione al trono di Spagna (1701), quando Vittorio Amedeo II cambiò segretamente alleanza, passando dal fronte franco-spagnolo a quello austriaco. Questa mossa è stata un successo per lui, visto che poi lo stesso Re di Spagna, per riavvicinarlo, gli concesse il Regno di Sicilia. Questi non furono anni facili. I sovrani erano ovviamente lontani dalla Sicilia e in più non apprezzavano molto la cultura e le tradizioni dell'isola. E così i siciliani iniziarono a odiarli, fino a quando non scambiarono la Sicilia con un'altra isola italiana: la Sardegna. Andando avanti con la storia, arriviamo al XIX secolo, quello dell'unità d'Italia. In effetti è stato anche grazie ai Savoia se il processo di unificazione dell'Italia è diventato realtà. Prima del 1861 l'Italia era suddivisa in piccoli Stati. Successivamente Giuseppe Garibaldi, con il sostegno di Vittorio Emanuele II, riuscì a creare la magia, ufficializzata il 17 marzo 1861. La dinastia dei Savoia durò dal 1861 al 1946. Si susseguirono ben 4 sovrani: Vittorio Emanuele II (1861-1878), Umberto I (1878-1900), Vittorio Emanuele III (1900-1946) e Umberto II (maggio 1946-giugno 1946). In particolare, ricordiamo Vittorio Emanuele III, che ha governato l'Italia durante il periodo delle due guerre mondiali. Dopo la sconfitta di Mussolini e del fascismo, il re Vittorio Emanuele III decise di abdicare in favore di suo figlio Umberto II, nel tentativo di salvare la monarchia, e partì in esilio. Tuttavia poi un mese dopo, a giugno del 1946, ci fu il famoso referendum popolare.
We're returning to the pop landscape of the early 2000s this week, a pop landscape that had your host Graham wondering whether there was any point being a pop cartographer any more. The dominant feature of said landscape was TV talent shows, usually run by either Simon Cowell or his Salieri, Simon Fuller, the latter of whom masterminded this week's film. A modern-day beach party movie starring first-season American Idol finalists Justin Guarini and Kelly Clarkson, From Justin to Kelly was legendarily unsuccessful, but that doesn't mean returning co-host Jeff hasn't got a bagful of fascinating trivia about it. Said trivia includes Guarini's history in musical theatre, the film's epic director's cut, and a subplot removed from the third act that could have led to the film getting a very different reception. We also talk about the film's odd, PG-certificate vision of teen debauchery, the possible membership of the Pennsylvania Posse, the film's inability to remember if its musical numbers are diegetic or not, and the previous CV of writer Kim Fuller. Yes relation.

Around here, we've become pretty adept at recognizing the symptoms of an Italian American obsession... and this week's guest can easily be diagnosed within a few moments of first meeting him! Ray Guarini is the founder and driving force behind Italian Enclaves, an immensely popular Italian American social media platform on which Ray has set out to identify and catalogue the countless Italian American enclaves that add so much incredible Italian culture to the American mosaic. Since his last visit to the show in its earliest days, Ray and a team of equally-obsessed volunteers have grown the Italian Enclaves brand to include its first published book, New York City's Italian Neighborhoods, in person meet-ups, and a 501(c)3 non-profit organization known as the Italian Enclaves Historical Society, a charitable network dedicated to expanding Ray's mission and bringing his work to the next generation. We sit down with this Italian American All-Star to discuss just how his platform has expanded in recent years, how two years of limits and lockdowns have affected the nation's Italian neighborhoods, how to discover the hidden Italian communities dotted across the country, and how the famed ethnic enclaves of America's cities stack up against the often unknown centers of Italian life in America's suburbs and rural areas. Ultimately, we're asking what constitutes an Italian enclave, and how all of us can play our part in their continuing evolution, making sure they continue to thrive for the next generation of Italian American obsessives!
TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜ www.bastabugie.it/it/articoli.php?id=6864NOTRE DAME DIVENTERA' UN TEMPIO MULTIMEDIALE DELLA RELIGIONE UNICAContinuando la distruzione iniziata con la Rivoluzione Francese, gli attuali fondi della ricostruzione dopo l'incendio saranno sfruttati per trasformare la cattedrale secondo le mode del politically correctdi Rino CammilleriI giacobini distrussero ogni chiesa, cappella e abbazia di Francia. A Parigi non scampò di certo Notre Dame, dove una ballerina vestita da Dea Ragione si esibì sull'altare semidemolito. In Notre Dame c'erano anche le statue degli antichi re di Francia. Ebbene, decapitarono pure quelle, non bastando ai sanculotti le teste vere. I diavoli si accanirono particolarmente sulla Primogenita della Chiesa, ben sapendo che, infettando questa, il morbo si sarebbe diffuso ovunque. E rimase pervicace.Nel 1905 l'ex seminarista Émile Combes, divenuto capo del governo, con una furia degna di miglior causa riprovò a fare tabula rasa del cattolicesimo francese, questa volta per via amministrativa. Tutte le chiese, cappelle, abbazie ancora in piedi o restaurate dopo le follie rivoluzionarie, come Notre Dame, vennero espropriate dalla République. La quale, perciò, oggi è proprietaria di Notre Dame e la sua ricostruzione post-incendio è a carico non più della Chiesa ma del contribuente, anche quello ateo o musulmano. Bel boomerang. A proposito, a che punto sono le indagini sul rogo? Continuano o sono finite sotto al tappeto?Infatti, nella Francia macroniana dove la laïcité viene insegnata obbligatoriamente a scuola, sotto al tappeto ci sono anche le centinaia di vandalismi a danno di chiese, cimiteri e simboli cristiani che ogni anno vengono colà perpetrati. E Notre Dame è l'edificio cristiano principale dell'ex Primogenita. A questo proposito, negli anni Novanta finì in mondovisione il rogo della torinese cappella del Guarini, e la Sindone fu salvata a stento da un eroico pompiere. Accidentale anche quell'incendio? O anch'esso sotto il tappeto? L'odio contro i maggiori simboli cristiani dell'Occidente ex cristiano (nelle élites, il popolo ancora regge) andrebbe forse spiegato non dai sociologi ma dagli esorcisti.Ebbene, poiché Notre Dame deve risorgere a furor di popolo (ricordate le immagini della gente che pregava con le lacrime agli occhi vedendo ardere la guglia di Viollet le Duc?), come ai tempi di Combes magari bisogna ricorrere ad altri mezzi. Cioè: ricostruita, sì, però snaturata nel suo contenuto. E questa volta, duole dirlo, con la spensierata partecipazione del clero progressista. Cappelle a tema. Effetti sonori. Luci laser. Percorsi tematici. Temi ecologici e inclusivi. Insomma, il tempio multimediale della Religione Unica, quella del "volemose bene tutti quanti" attorno alla rousseauiana Natura. Non è l'Essere Supremo di Robespierre, né il Grande Architetto dei massoni, tranquilli. È il Pantheon del dio del XXI secolo: il kitsch. Ma il popolo di cui si diceva è insorto: no alla Disneyland politicamente corretta nel cuore (letterale, non geografico) della Francia.Grazie al cielo c'è ancora una Francia vandeana che resiste. E c'è sempre stata. Quando, nella Grande Guerra, i soldati francesi si cucivano l'immagine del Sacro Cuore sulla giubba, il governo «laico» intervenne a vietarlo. Ma quando i tedeschi arrivarono quasi a Parigi il generalissimo Foche fece di testa sua e consacrò personalmente l'intera Armée al Sacro Cuore. E in breve tempo i tedeschi cominciarono a indietreggiare.
È il 1997 quando dalla Cappella del Guarini nel Duomo di Torino divampa un incendio che mette a rischio la Sindone, il lenzuolo che secondo la tradizione avvolse il corpo di Cristo. Fu un rogo devastante a pochi mesi di distanza da quello che distrusse la Fenice di Venezia. Miracolosamente anche grazie ad uno spostamento della Sindone la reliquia fu tratta in salvo e non subì danni ma cosa generò quel rogo? All'inizio si parlò di un attacco terroristico ma la realtà fu un'altra, più semplice. E a raccontarla oggi è la dottoressa Antonietta Lombardozzi, primo dirigente tecnico della polizia di stato direttore della terza divisione della polizia scientifica, responsabile di tutta la parte di accertamenti forensi che hanno come argomento la chimica e la biologia sia a livello centrale che territoriale. All'epoca dei fatti la dottoressa Lombardozzi era una giovane funzionaria addetto alla sezione che si occupa di incendi ed esplosivi ed era entrata in polizia da appena 4 anni. Fu svegliata, la mattina seguente al rogo, dal suo superiore. Partì da Roma e arrivò a Torino: doveva restare pochi giorni che divennero poi tre mesi. Di quelle fasi e di quell'indagine, che portarono poi alla condanna di 4 persone, ricorda tutto, compresa la solidarietà dei torinesi che per giorni rimasero lì in piazza San Giovanni.

Important Events February 16, 1843 Today is the birthday of the American botanist Townshend Stith Brandegee. Townshend was born into one of America’s oldest and prominent families, and he was the oldest of twelve children. Townshend’s middle name, Stith, was his mother’s maiden name. Townshend was descended from three generations of men named Elishama. Townshend’s great grandfather, Elishama Brandegee I, had fought in the Revolutionary War. By 1778, Elishama bought a pretty piece of land in Berlin, Connecticut, known as the mulberry orchard. The History of Berlin tells a charming story of how Townshend’s great grandmother, Lucy, made a red silk gown with the silk from her silkworms. Apparently, she intended to give the dress to Martha Washington, but somehow she ended up wearing it and keeping it for herself. The Brandegee family continued to grow Mulberry (Morus) trees on the property. In fact, Townshend’s grandfather, Elishama Jr., founded the very first silk and cotton-thread company in Berlin. A successful entrepreneur, Elishama Jr, owned a mercantile store, which was the largest store between Hartford and New Haven, and people came from miles around to do their trading. His grandmother, Lucy, was a teacher and founded a private all-girls seminary, now a private prep school for girls known as the Emma Willard School. Townshend's father, Dr. Elishama Brandegee, became the town physician, and by all reports, he was beloved by all who knew him. Townshend and his dad shared a love of nature, and as a young boy, Townshend created his very own fern collection. Townshend came of age during the Civil War, and somehow he managed to live through two years of service in the union army. After his military service, like his father before him, Townshend attended Yale and graduated from Yale’s Sheffield Scientific School. He forged his own path as a young civil engineer, and he ended up working on much-needed railroad surveys in the American West. In his spare time, both as a student at Yale and as a young engineer, Townshend botanized, and he even made some discoveries and sent specimens to Harvard’s Asa Gray. Townshend’s unique combination of surveying experience and botanical work proved invaluable as he began creating maps of the western forests. In fact, it was his love of forests that brought him to the greatest love of his life: Katherine Layne Curran. When his father died in 1884, Townshend’s inheritance allowed him to pursue his interests without any financial worries. And in the late 1800s, if you were a young botanist with means and interested in West-coast botany, all roads lead to the California Academy of Sciences. In her early forties, Katharine Layne Curran was the curator of the Academy. She had been married to an alcoholic and then widowed in her twenties. She’d survived medical school when females were just breaking into the field of medicine, and she’d given up her career as a physician when it proved too difficult to set up a practice as a woman. By the time she met Townshend, the last thing Katharine had expected to find was love. And yet, these two middle-aged botanical experts did fall in love - “Insanely in love” to use Katharine’s words - and to the surprise of their friends, they married. Kate always referred to Townshend as “Townie.” Equally yoked, Townie and Kate’s happy honeymoon was a 500-mile nature walk - collecting plant specimens from San Diego to San Francisco. After their honeymoon, Townie and Kate moved to San Diego, where they created a herbarium, library, and garden praised as a botanical paradise. In 1899, the jeweler Frederick Arthur Walton, who was reported to have the largest private cactus collection in England, visited Kate and Townie in San Diego. Frederick shared a review of the Brandegee’s spectacular garden in his magazine called The Cactus Journal: “The garden of Mr. and Mrs. Brandegee… [is] a wild garden, being situated upon the mesa, or high land overlooking the sea. Mr. and Mrs. Brandegee are enthusiastic botanists, and have built a magnificent herbarium, where they spend most of their time. The wild land round the herbarium is full of interesting plants that are growing in a state of nature, while being studied and described in all their various conditions. Mrs. Brandegee has preserved specimens of all the kinds she can get. In some cases where the plants are very rare, I asked how she could so destroy such beauties. She replied that her specimens would be there to refer to at any time, with all its descriptions and particulars, whereas if the plant had been left growing, or sent to some botanical gardens, it would probably have died some time, and all trace have been lost.” Townie and Kate continued botanizing - individually and together. During their lifetime, botanists could travel for free by train, and the Brandegees used these free passes regularly in their travels throughout California, Arizona, and Mexico. On one trip to Mexico, Kate left early, and she managed to survive a shipwreck. The story goes that Townsend asked about the fate of the specimens before asking about Kate. Yet, this anecdote shouldn’t discount their very loving marriage; they were both just maniacally focused on their botanical work. In 1906, when an earthquake destroyed the Berkeley herbarium, the Brandegees single-handedly restored it by donating their entire San Diego botanical library (including many rare volumes) and herbarium of over 80,000 plants. Keeping in mind that Townshend's substantial inheritance had funded all of their botanical efforts, Townie and Kate requested a modest stipend of $100 per month in exchange for their life’s work. Despite years of haggling, Berkeley never agreed to pay the Brandegees a cent for what was the richest private plant collection in the United States. Incredibly, the Brandegees continued to be selfless when it came to Berkely. They followed their plants and books to campus, where Townsend and Kate worked the rest of their lives pro bono. And while Townshend was honored with the title of curator of the herbarium, Kate was not given a title. In the early spring of 1920, a 75-year-old Kate was walking at Berkeley when she fell and broke her shoulder. Three weeks later, she died. On April 7, 1925, five years later - almost to the day - Townshend joined Kate on his final journey. February 16, 1971 On this day, the New Jersey State Flower, the Violet, was officially adopted by the legislature after a proposal from Josephine S. Margetts. In 1967, when Josephine Margetts was elected to the New Jersey State Assembly in 1967, she became the first woman to represent Morris County, New Jersey, since 1938. Politics was in Josephine’s blood. Her grandfather, a Pennsylvania Supreme Court justice, ran for Governor of Pennsylvania. And Josephine’s late husband, Walter T. Margetts Jr., served as New Jersey’s state treasurer. A nursery and orchard owner, Josephine was environmentally conscious, and she introduced legislation to protect the land and waterways of New Jersey - even helping to ban the use of DDT. Long before Josephine was born, the violet was unofficially selected as the State Flower of New Jersey. By the late 1960s, New Jersey was the only state without legislation supporting an official state flower. And so, with the urging of local garden clubs, Josephine introduced legislation in February of 1971 to make the violet official State Flower of New Jersey. When it came time for Josephine’s bill to be debated in the legislature, Josephine’s peer Sen. Joseph J. Maraziti, R-Morris, read this poem: “Roses are red, Violets are blue If you vote for this bill Mrs. Margetts will love you.” Josephine’s legislation was passed 30-1. The sole dissenting vote was Sen. Frank J. Guarini, D-Hudson. He told the press, "I'm a marigold man." Two years later, in 1973, a newspaper called The Record out of Hackensack New Jersey, shared an Op-Ed titled, Consider the Lilies of the Field. “Conventional, chauvinist wisdom would have it that Mrs. Margetts introduced the bill because she's a woman and women are well, you know interested in growing things, flowers and plants and trees, the fruit of the earth. But Mrs. Margetts is not one of your everyday garden club ladies. She studied at the Ambler School of Horticulture, she operates a commercial apple and peach orchard in Pennsylvania, and she has a holly nursery on the grounds of her home in New Vernon. The house on the property is rather substantial for a Jersey farmhouse if memory serves, it has 14 bathrooms, but no matter.” As Josephine no doubt knew, Violets are spring flowers, and they’ve been around for a long time. The ancient Greeks enjoyed violets. If you enjoy floriography ("FLOOR-EE-ah-grah-FEE") or the symbolic meaning of plants, the heart-shaped leaves offer a clue to their meaning: affection, love, faith, and dignity. The color of violets can add another layer of meaning. Blue violets especially symbolize love and devotion. White violets symbolize purity and yellow violets symbolize goodness and high esteem. Unearthed Words The chief work of the botanist of yesterday was the study and classification of dried, shriveled up mummy's whose souls had fled. They thought their classified species were more fixed and unchangeable than anything in heaven or earth that we can now imagine. We have learned that they are as plastic in our hands as clay in the hands of the potter or color on the artist canvas and can readily be molded into more beautiful forms and colors than any painter or sculptor can ever hope to bring forth. — Luther Burbank, Address to the Pacific States Floral Congress, 1901 Grow That Garden Library Uprooted by Page Dickey This book came out in 2020 (I bought my copy in November), and the subtitle is A Gardener Reflects on Beginning Again. When Margaret Roach reviewed this book, she wrote, "An intimate, lesson-filled story of what happens when one of America’s best-known garden writers transplants herself, rooting into a deeper partnership with nature than ever before." If you’ve ever moved away from a beloved garden, or there is a move in your future, you’ll find Page’s book to be especially appealing. Uprooted is Page’s story about leaving her beloved iconic garden at Duck Hill - a landscape she molded and refined for thirty-four years. Set on 17 acres of rolling fields and woodland, Page’s new property is in northwestern Connecticut, and it surrounds a Methodist Church, which is how Page came to call her new space, Church House. What does it mean to be a seasoned gardener (at the age of 74) and to have to start again? How does a gardener handle the transition from a beloved home to the excitement of new possibilities? Uprooted gives us the chance to follow Page through all the major milestones as she finds her new homeplace. We get to hear about her search for a new place, how she establishes her new garden spaces, and her revelations as she learns to evolve as a gardener. If you’ve ever wondered how on earth you’ll ever leave your garden, Page will give you hope. And, if you’re thinking about revamping an old garden space or starting a new garden, you can learn from Page how to create a garden that will bring you joy. As an accomplished garden writer, Page’s book is a fabulous read, and the photography is top-notch. And although the move from Duck Hill marked a horticultural turning point in her life, Page found herself excited and reenergized by her brand new space at Church House. This book is 244 pages of the evolution of a gardener as she transitions from Duck Hill to Church House with a lifelong love of nature, gardens, and landscape possibilities. You can get a copy of Duck Hill Journal by Page Dickey and support the show using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for around $18 Today’s Botanic Spark Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart In researching Josephine Margetts — the woman who created the bill for the State Flower of New Jersey (the Violet), I came across her obituary. When Josephine Margetts died in March of 1989, Fran Wood wrote a touching tribute to her that was featured in The Daily Record out of Morristown, New Jersey: “Snow was falling on the day they remembered Josephine Margetts last week. It was gathering in little drifts on the trees outside her back door, collecting on the glossy leaves of some 15 varieties of holly… The fresh flakes formed in little peaks on the bird feeders just inches away from her breakfast table, covered the glass roof of the greenhouse where lantana, gardenias and scented geraniums had flowered for more winters than anyone could remember and accumulated along the fence rails next to the vegetable garden where she used to raise more produce than her family could eat in a summer. If the loving cultivation of these grounds, the perennials, the flowering shrubs and trees and all those hollies she planted and nurtured had been Mrs. Margetts' only accomplishment, it would have been worth remarking on. For gardening was a successful business as well as a private pleasure for her. Besides operating a licensed holly nursery on her home grounds, she and her family turned out some 10,000 bushels of peaches and apples each year at their Pennsylvania farm. Like all true gardeners, Mrs. Margetts got tremendous satisfaction from planting a seed and watching it grow. She considered herself no less rewarded by those things that grew on their own accord like the tiny white pine seedling that appeared in the middle of a flagstone path one spring. She hadn't the heart to pull it up, she said, and so it grew and grew until it rivaled the height of the tallest hollies and its expanding girth forced strollers to detour around it. Gardening was far from Mrs. Margetts' sole accomplishment, of course, but her inherent appreciation for the beauty of the land and the miracles of nature were at the root of her environmental legacies to New Jersey. As a state assemblywoman, she sponsored New Jersey's first "wetlands" legislation, the Wetlands Act of 1970, aimed at protecting some of our most vulnerable saltwater areas. She also sponsored the Pesticides Control Act, the Municipal Conservation Act, the National Lands Trust and the Appalachian Trail Easement all bills whose goals were the preservation of natural resources. The Environmental Quality Act, which she also sponsored, made it a law for state agencies seeking construction funds to first submit detailed project studies to the state Department of Environmental Protection for approval. She also supported equal opportunity for women long before the word "feminist" was coined. But it was the environment, the beauty of nature, that stirred this farm girl most deeply, and her passion for it didn't lessen even in her last year or so, when the plants nearest to her were Boston ferns, a Christmas cactus and pots of ivy, and the closest she got to the outdoors were the vistas of lawns and gardens and trees seen through the windows of her room. During those months, she kept a small library of books within arm's reach among them Gov. Tom Kean's The Politics of Inclusion, James Herriot's Dog Stories, The Fine Art of Political Wit and several volumes detailing the laws of New Jersey. And, in their midst, were Cam Cavanaugh's Saving the Great Swamp, the Directory of Certified N.J. Nurseries and Plant Dealers, New Jersey: A Photographic Journey, by John Cunningham and Walter Choroszewski and several well-worn (and, no doubt, well-loved) garden books. There was something symbolic about the snow that fell as Josephine Margetts was laid to rest last week. For as it covered the lawns and shrubs and gardens she knew and loved, it also blanketed every square inch of the state she knew and loved and whose natural beauty and precious resources she worked so devotedly to preserve.” Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener. And remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

Join Leigh as he visits with actor/performer Justin Guarini. Justin was a finalist in the first season of American Idol in 2002, which served to jump start his performance career. He has since appeared on screen and stage, including in Broadway productions of ‘American Idiot,’ ‘Romeo and Juliet,’ and ‘Wicked.’ He’s also hosted many shows like ‘Idol Wrap’ and has had some fun playing the hilarious Lil’ Sweet in commercials for Diet Dr. Pepper. Justin talks about the importance of having the right mindset and how it can affect every part of your experience in the industry. He also breaks down some external and internal challenges of auditioning and why you should never lie (ever), no matter the kind of day you’re having. In addition, Justin and Leigh discuss the necessity of approaching an audition as the opportunity to bring your own unique perspectives and experiences to a role, rather than thinking it’s some kind of competition. Finally, Justin shares his views on how proper self-care can keep you motivated and sane while navigating the industry and offers one incredible piece of advice for actors who are just starting out.

http://searchforschlock.com/media/podcasts/sfs-087-FromJustinToKelly.mp3 Download MP3 American Idol -- now in its last season after fifteen years of slow, inexorable decline -- was kind of a big deal in its first season. The winner that year was Kelly Clarkson, arguably the only American Idol contestant to achieve lasting non-niche success in the music industry (sorry, William Hung). As a reward, she and runner-up/Sideshow Bob lookalike Justin Guarini landed starring roles in what the Razzies would later declare the "worst musical in our first 25 years". Although Clarkson recently confirmed rumors that she had once denied -- that she and Guarini were, in fact, locked in the throes of white-hot passion at the time -- you don't see any of that raw sexual attraction on the screen. If anything, the leads seem bored with each other and this entire process. Oh, and by the way it's a musical about text messaging, because that's what all you kids are into. This film is the purest representation you'll find of what middle-aged white guys think teenagers wanted in the early 2000s. Original post located at searchforschlock.com.

Giovanni Battista Guarini's Il Pastor Fido was one of the most famous plays of the 17th Century and 300 years ago London saw the premiere of Handel's Opera based on Guarini's text. However, Handel was far from the first to use this play as inspiration for his music. Il Pastor Fido had already sparked the imaginations of numerous composers. Catherine Bott explores the play and some of it's musical offsprings, including music by Monterverdi, Schütz and and Sigismondo d'India. Handel's "Il Pastor Fido" is one of the featured works at this year's London Handel Festival which runs from 15th March to 24th April.
