In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Rob Meyerson, co-founder and CEO of Interlune and former president of Blue Origin, about building the next phase of the space economy—from mining Helium-3 on the Moon to powering quantum computing and future fusion reactors on Earth. They explore the science behind lunar regolith, cryogenic separation, robotic excavation, and how private industry is rekindling the optimism of Apollo. Rob also shares lessons from scaling Blue Origin and explains why knowledge management and intuition matter when engineering at the edge of possibility. Follow Rob and Interlune on LinkedIn, X (Twitter), and Instagram.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Rob Meyerson, who introduces Interlune's mission to extract Helium-3 from the Moon and explains its origins in the Apollo samples.05:00 Meyerson describes how lunar regolith traps solar wind gases, the role of ilmenite, and how spectrometry helps identify promising Helium-3 sites.10:00 Discussion shifts to Helium-3's commercial potential, the Department of Energy's isotope program, and its link to tritium decay and nuclear stockpiles.15:00 Meyerson connects Helium-3 to quantum computing, explaining cryogenic dilution refrigeration and the importance of ultra-cold temperatures.20:00 They explore cryogenic engineering, partnerships with Vermeer for lunar excavation, and developing solar wind–implanted regolith simulants.25:00 Rob reflects on his 15 years at Blue Origin, scaling from 10 to 1,500 people, and the importance of documentation and knowledge retention.30:00 The talk turns to lunar water, propellant production, and how solar and nuclear power could support a permanent in-space economy.35:00 Meyerson outlines robotic harvesting, lunar night hibernation, and AI applications for navigation, autonomy, and resource mapping.40:00 The conversation broadens to intuition in engineering, testing in lunar gravity, and lessons from Apollo's lost momentum and industrial base.50:00 Rob closes with optimism for private industry's role in rebuilding lunar infrastructure and how Interlune fits into humanity's return to the Moon.Key InsightsHelium-3 as a Lunar Resource: Rob Meyerson explains that Helium-3, a rare isotope on Earth but abundant on the Moon due to billions of years of solar wind implantation, could power future fusion energy and enable cleaner, more efficient energy sources. Interlune's mission is to commercialize this resource, beginning with robotic prospecting and extraction missions.The Science of Lunar Regolith: The Moon's regolith—the dusty surface soil—acts as a natural collector of solar wind gases like hydrogen, helium, and helium-3. Meyerson describes how Interlune identifies promising mining locations using data from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and the presence of ilmenite, a titanium-rich mineral that traps more Helium-3 than other regions.Cryogenics and Quantum Computing: Helium-3 is essential for dilution refrigerators that cool quantum computers to millikelvin temperatures, colder than any place in the universe. Meyerson highlights a new commercial contract with Bluefors, a Finnish cryogenics leader, to supply Helium-3 starting in 2028—proving the economic case for lunar resource extraction.Fusion Energy and Strategic Supply: While today's fusion reactors rely on tritium and deuterium, Helium-3 could be the next-generation fuel—safer and more efficient. With tritium decay from aging nuclear stockpiles as the only current terrestrial source, Interlune's lunar supply could fill a critical gap for future clean-energy systems.Building Lunar Infrastructure: Interlune's long-term vision extends beyond Helium-3 to producing rocket propellant, metals, and industrial materials on the Moon. By developing cryogenic separation and excavation systems, they aim to enable a self-sustaining “in-space economy” where resources mined in space fuel space-based operations.AI and Autonomy in Space Mining: Artificial intelligence and advanced sensing will guide robotic harvesters on the Moon's harsh terrain. AI will also analyze imagery and soil data to map Helium-3 concentrations and manage knowledge across missions, turning data into operational insight.Lessons in Leadership and Scale: Drawing from his 15 years leading Blue Origin, Meyerson stresses the importance of documentation, mentorship, and maintaining technical continuity as teams grow. He contrasts Apollo's lost potential with today's resurgence of private space ventures, expressing deep optimism for U.S. innovation and the rebirth of lunar industry.

Op 29 oktober vinden de Tweede Kamerverkiezingen in Nederland plaats. Ook Nederlanders die in het buitenland verblijven, hebben het recht om te stemmen. SBS Dutch sprak met vier partijen* en legde iedere kandidaat dezelfde stellingen en vragen voor. Aflevering met Henk Vermeer van BBB.

In my neck of the woods, September is a month where the air is filled with the sound of cattle being weaned. For calves, this is a completely new experience, similar to a child's first day of kindergarten. For our cows, we're asking them to wean a calf while still caring for another baby in-utero. Easy, right?While there is a little social discomfort associated with weaning (and calves aren't afraid to let you know about it), there are a number of methods deployed by cattlemen across the country to help their calves – and cows – come through weaning successfully. We welcome you to listen in as we visit with Ted Perry with Purina Animal Nutrition regarding:The stressors both cows and calves go through at weaningHow we can alter our management to address stressThe role nutrition playsHow you can implement a few strategies to set your cattle up for improved performance long past weaningAdditional Resources:Don't Feed Cows Like You Did 20 Years Ago with Ted PerryBoosting Cow Herd Efficiency with IonophoresBuilding a Better Cow with David LalmanSubscribe to the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAA huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode.Have questions or comments?

Donderdag 9 oktober was de internationale Dag van de Post, dus in deze aflevering duiken we in muzikale brieven en brieven van componisten. Erik Satie belandde ooit in de gevangenis door een brief die hij schreef, Guiseppe Verdi ontving een opmerkelijke brief van een teleurgestelde concertbezoeker en Willem Pijper schreef stevige feedback aan een enthousiaste amateur-componist.  Gedraaid deze uitzending: Night & Letters - Maarten Vos & Sebastiaan Plano Erik Satie - Parade Shara Nova - Beyoncé Verdi/Liszt - Aida Verdi - Triomfmars uit Aida Paulus Schäfer - Letter to van Gogh Heiner Goebbels - Writings II Sonatine 2 - Willem Pijper David Bowie - Letter to Hermione Louis Andriessen - Writing to Vermeer

Hoe meer zielen, hoe meer historische vreugd, want in deze aflevering zitten we aan tafel met niet één, maar twee indrukwekkende gasten! Met noest archiefarbeid en vroegmodern notariële documentatieonderzoek kwamen kunsthistorici Judith Noorman en Piet Bakker tot een opmerkelijke conclusie: Vermeers grote geldschieter bleek een vrouw te zijn! Hoe zijn ze hier achter gekomen, wie was deze Maria de Knuijt, wat betekent het voor de kunstwereld en kan de film The Girl with the Pearl Earring nu bij het grofvuil?

ART FOR PUBLIC PURPOSE. Dr Caroline Campbell was born and educated in Belfast, and became Director of the National Gallery of Ireland in 2022. She studied Modern History at University College Oxford, and has an MA and PhD from the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London. A former Fellow of the Center for Curatorial Leadership, New York, before joining the National Gallery of Ireland, Caroline was Director of Collections and Research at the National Gallery, London. Earlier in her career she held curatorial positions at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, the Courtauld Gallery, London, and the National Gallery. Caroline has published widely on European art from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, particularly on the Italian Renaissance, most recently Mantegna & Bellini and 14th Century Siena. “The Taking of Christ is an absolutely astonishing painting because of the moment of drama in it, and that, as much as the name Caravaggio, is what really excites our visitors.” “Irish art is really strong, but it is much less known outside of Ireland. I would love people to be able to appreciate it more, as part of the more widespread European and Western tradition.” “I love the connection that people have with the gallery.”

HOSTS: Miranda Reiman and Mark McCully  GUESTS: David and Carol Medeiros Starting out as first-generation Angus breeders wasn't easy, but David and Carol Medeiros were determined to make it work. In the tough agriculture climate of the 1980s, they balanced off-farm jobs, raising kids and managing cattle near Denair, Calif. With teamwork and hard work, they grew their operation and partnered with the Dal Porto family to launch an annual production sale — now the second-longest running Angus sale in California. While their vision of the ideal cow has remained steady, their business has evolved, including the expansion to a ranch in the Nebraska Sandhills. In this episode, David and Carol share their story and how they're now helping the next generation of Angus families build dreams of their own. GUESTS: David and Carol Medeiros own and operate Rancho Casino, in both Denair, Calif., and Purdum, Neb. They both grew up in the agriculture business, and the Angus herd began with David's first 4-H heifers that he showed during high school.  David earned and Carol both earned degrees from Cal Poly State University, where they made connections that helped them in their career. Carol is a certified public accountant and was a partner in her own firm until they sold it a few years ago.  The pair raised three children on the ranch in California, and now split their time between the home location there and the ranch they acquired several years ago in the Sandhills of Nebraska. Their goal remains to raise maternal, high -fertility, low -birthweight cattle that get “better every year.”  SPONSOR: Ready to see how Vermeer can help you get more done in a day?

Marcus Bell discusses his move from corporate life to international acclaim as a photographer. After experiencing personal loss, Marcus reconnected with photography through his late father's camera—a turning point that sparked a deep passion for storytelling through the lens. From capturing wedding day emotions to crafting contemplative landscape images, Marcus shares how his work reflects a broader quest for connection—to nature, to memory, and to the human spirit.   With more than 25 years in the field and accolades such as AIPP Grand Master of Photography and recognition by American Photo as one of the world's top 10 photographers, Marcus brings both technical mastery and soul to his art. He draws inspiration from iconic photographers like Cartier-Bresson and Salgado, and the influence of classic painters such as Vermeer and Rembrandt has shaped his approach to light and form.   In this conversation, Marcus discusses balancing personal artistic expression with professional work, the use of vintage lenses for mood and imperfection, and how vulnerability in art helps others feel seen. He reflects on the role of planning and intuition in crafting meaningful images, and how photography has become a lens through which he processes and appreciates life's complexities.   I hope you enjoy the show!

Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.The rules for law and order create the boundaries for civil co-existence and, ideally, the backdrops for individuals, families, and companies to grow and thrive. Breaking these rules puts civil order at risk. And while murder is the Big Daddy of crimes, codified ordinances across municipal divisions, counties, states, and countries show the nearly endless ways there are to create mayhem. This season, we put our detective skills to the test. This is Season 8, Anything but Murder. This is Episode 17, art theft is the featured crime. This is Was It a Vermeer? by Erica ObeyDELIBERATIONMaggie Fletcher has thieves to the left of her, nuns to the right, and she needs our help to clear this holy rolling path. Who is the thief known as Dismas? Here are the suspects in the order we met them:Dr. Thomas, a canon lawyer who can take on—and take down—any real estate lawyer out there. Mr. Barry Wolf, owner of The Wolf Group, art appraisers and Maggie's boss. Sr. Scholastica, caretaker of the Phelps treasury and seemingly the only member of the mysterious Sodality of St. Dismas. Fr. Hugh Sinclair, investigator for the Vatican Museum—or is he?Mr. Alexi Rublev, main investor in the Wolf group and a real estate developer with his eye on the property owned by Phelps Hall.Here are the facts the way Maggie understands them:When Alexei Rublev cannot reach Barry Wolf, who is returning from an overseas trip, he calls Maggie and orders her to appraise an icon of St. Dismas that was stolen from Phelps Hall, as well as demanding that she send him all the Wolf Group's records about insurance claims involving the Vatican Museum. Rublev justifies his demands by saying if Barry won't pull the trigger, Rublev will pull it for him. Unsure of what Rublev meant by that, Maggie does what Rublev asks, emailing him the records and going to Phelps Hall to conduct the appraisal. When she arrives at Phelps Hall, she finds what seems to be a far more valuable painting than the icon, which no-one knows anything about. For the first time, it occurs to her how odd it is to be asked to appraise an item that isn't there. When Wolf arrives from overseas, he is unfairly furious with Maggie. Wolf gets even more furious when Rublev shows up with a state trooper, claiming that the stolen icon is evidence that Phelps Hall is nothing but a money laundering operation for the Vatican Bank, and demanding that Phelps Hall be shut down. Rublev is accused by Thomas of looking for an excuse to shut down Phelps Hall, so he can buy their land. Maggie remembers Rublev's comment about pulling the trigger and wonders whether he and Barry were colluding in manufacturing evidence, so he can seize Phelps Hall. But there is also a great deal of evidence that in obeying Rublev's order, she has stumbled across a massive money laundering scheme run by a master thief named Dismas, and it may be connected to Phelps Hall. Certainly, no-one at Phelps Hall is exactly what they seem. Who is the thief known as Dismas?ABOUT Art Theft True CrimeFrom Deep Sentinel, a security service company, come the stories of a few famous art thefts. We'll start with Vermeer, since we just got acquainted with him.In March 1990, two thieves posed as police supposedly responding to a disturbance were given entry into museum into Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, a private home turned museum with an extensive art collection.

HOSTS: Miranda Reiman and Mark McCully  GUEST: Paul Hill  Paul Hill says he's been lucky in life, but his path would indicate more than luck. The longtime Angus breeder grew up on a peanut farm and commercial cattle operation in Florida, but his lifetime in the cattle business has taken him from Missouri to the East Coast and eventually to Ohio. Paul and his business partner, Marshall Reynolds, founded Champion Hill Angus and grew it into a leading Angus program across the country, especially well known for their success in the show ring. Here he shares the secret to finding the right cow lines, his philosophy around seizing opportunities and the role of surrounding yourself with good people. GUEST: Longtime Angus breeder Paul Hill is most notably associated with Champion Hill Angus, Bidwell, Ohio, which he owned and operated with his wife, Lynn, and business partner, Marshall Reynolds. They dispersed in 2017 but still remain involved in various ways. The Hills raised two daughters in the Angus business, Sarah and Neenah. Sarah served as 1992 Miss American Angus and on the National Junior Angus Board of Directors in 1993-1994. Paul's career started at the Herdsman Institute, with an intermission for service in the Army during the Vietnam War. He worked for Briarhill Angus Farms in Union Springs, Ala., in 1971, as in Connecticut, South Carolina and Virginia before working for Marshall Reynolds 1990. The two became business partners in 1993, founding Champion Hill Angus. The herd, which included 200 donor cows and 900 recipients, had a year-round breeding program to maximize the use of recipients and supply the demand for show heifers. Paul served on the American Angus Association Board of Directors and was chairman in 2007-2008. During his time on the Board, he was a four-year chairman of the Angus Foundation, helping guide the structure that's in place today and spearheading the $11 million Vision of Value: Campaign for Angus.  SPONSOR: Ready to see how Vermeer can help you get more done in a day?

En la segunda mitad del siglo XVI las provincias septentrionales de los Países Bajos controlados por los Habsburgo se rebelaron contra el monarca, que en aquel momento era Felipe II de España. Esta rebelión, cuya motivación fue religiosa, tuvo importantes consecuencias en la historia de Europa ya que, tras varias décadas de guerra, estas provincias consolidaron su independencia creando un Estado de nuevo cuño: la república de las Siete Provincias Unidas. Se trataba de una entidad política con un sistema de gobierno muy particular, una confederación que combinaba un Gobierno republicano encarnado en los Estados Generales, y una suerte de monarca elegible, el estatúder, que se encargaba de los asuntos militares. Tan pronto como consiguió la independencia, la recién nacida república comenzó a enriquecerse y expandirse por el mundo. La base de su prosperidad fue la apertura y el pragmatismo. Los Países Bajos se convirtieron en un gigantesco emporio comercial gracias a su estratégica ubicación geográfica y a una serie de innovaciones financieras como el Banco y la Bolsa de Ámsterdam, pioneras del capitalismo. Las Compañías de las Indias Orientales y Occidentales, corporaciones con tanto poder comercial como militar, permitieron a la República romper los monopolios de España y Portugal en el Atlántico y el Índico y forjar un gran imperio colonial. La sociedad neerlandesa, entretanto, asistió al ascenso de una burguesía urbana que adoptó valores calvinistas como el trabajo, el ahorro y la austeridad que se reflejaban en su cultura y estilo de vida. Pero, aunque el calvinismo era la religión oficial, la república practicó cierta tolerancia religiosa que atrajo a comerciantes y pensadores de toda Europa y contribuyó a su prosperidad al evitar conflictos internos y fomentar el comercio. Este ambiente de relativa libertad intelectual dio lugar a un florecimiento cultural y científico. El arte, impulsado por la burguesía como nueva mecenas, se alejó de los temas religiosos y aristocráticos para centrarse en la vida cotidiana y los paisajes. Maestros como Rembrandt, Vermeer o Frans Hals revolucionaron la pintura con su realismo y dominio de la luz. En el ámbito científico, figuras como Christiaan Huygens y Anton van Leeuwenhoek hicieron descubrimientos fundamentales. La cartografía neerlandesa, impulsada por las necesidades de los navegantes y el comercio, se convirtió en el referente mundial gracias a la precisión y la belleza de los mapas que realizaban geógrafos como Gerardus Mercator, Abraham Ortellius o Willem Blaeu. Los años de esplendor neerlandés comenzaron a declinar a finales del siglo XVII. En 1672, que ha pasado a la historia como el "año del desastre”, la República fue atacada simultáneamente por Francia e Inglaterra y consiguieron resistir de milagro. A lo largo del siglo XVIII, fueron perdiendo su preeminencia ultramarina ante el auge de potencias como Gran Bretaña. Las guerras en el continente, entretanto, eran continuas y muy costosas. El fin de la república llegó en 1795 con la invasión francesa. A pesar de su ocaso, el legado que dejaron aquellos neerlandeses de los siglos XVI y XVII llega hasta nuestros días. Sentaron las bases del capitalismo moderno e hicieron grandes contribuciones a la ciencia y a la historia del arte.

Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you!For a large portion of the United States, the previous year has been one for the books. Plentiful rain and green grass - even in areas that usually can't claim anything green except for the bar ditches - are certainly caused for celebration. However, with that moisture comes its own unique set of challenges. Those challenges often materialize as nuisances that can cause tail swishing, bunching, overstimulated and stressed cattle. But there is a reemerging insect on the horizon that threatens to take the concern for fly control to another level. On this episode of Angus at Work, we are joined by Dr. Sonja Swiger, an entomologist with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, to discuss: The usual culprits,Why flies are an issue,How to control them, and New World screwworm.A huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode. Additional Resources:AgriLife Extension New World screwworm fact sheetTexas A&M Veterinary Entomology resourcesHorn Flies and Grazing Cattle from the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAChoosing the Best Fly Control from the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRASubscribe to the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAFind more information to make Angus work for you in the Angus Beef Bulletin and ABB EXTRA.

This week, Vermeer hosted CEO of Interlune Rob Meyerson and Apollo astronaut Harrison “Jack” Schmitt, also with Interlune, for a conversation led by Vermeer President and CEO Jason Andringa. This is part one of a multi-part conversation

Luke tells this seemingly simple story of Jesus' interaction with his dear friends Martha and Mary. Martha welcomes Jesus and sets about rushing around with meal preparations— a breathless hospitality with no time for anything, except building frustration, anger, jealousy, and self-martyrdom. All the while, Mary is sitting at the feet of Jesus— a “right-hearted” disciple, soaking in the teaching of Jesus. Martha comes to Jesus, seeking his aid to get Mary to help her in the kitchen. Many have taken Jesus' words to Martha as critical of her loving service and hospitality. One wonders whether Martha— and her fellow servants in the Church— have been overlooked in their concerns. Were Jesus' words a critique of serving per se or were they words of healing for a harried, distracted server? The “answer” is “the one thing needful.” Note: The painting associated with this podcast (visible on the Epiclesis website podcast page) is "Christ in the House of Martha and Mary" (detail) by Vermeer.

Have questions or comments? We'd love to hear from you!Weather, drought, market prices and other factors can all put a major damper on the success of cattle producers year to year. Speaking with producers across the nation recently, there are struggles to be had whether rain has come your way or not. But how can we as livestock producers build a safety net in the event of unforeseen circumstances? On this episode, we invite you to listen to a conversation from CattleCon 2025 that Angus Beef Bulletin Editor Shauna Hermel had with Charlotte Talbott, sustainability analyst on the RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness team for North America, regarding the importance of genetics related to potential herd rebuild, on-farm risk management opportunities, and why financial and succession planning ahead of time can build the buffer needed to ride out rough times. A huge thank you to Vermeer for their sponsorship of this episode. Additional Resources:Commercial Programs at the American Angus AssociationThe Estate Planning Stuff You NeedAvoiding Risks with RelationshipsSelecting Replacements with GeneMax AdvantageSubscribe to the Angus Beef Bulletin EXTRAFind more information to make Angus work for you in the Angus Beef Bulletin and ABB EXTRA.

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTHThe episode starts with cruisers talking about who they are most existed to see - Tyler Hynes, Taylor Cole, Jonathan Bennett, everyone! With little clips of what's to come this season. Lots of hugging. Lots of crying. We meet Paige, Alexandrea and their mom Kerry. The Vermeer family. Mom cries when talking about how excited she is to go on this cruise. Alexandra is the daughter in law but she feels like they're the family she's always wanted and both Alexandrea and Paige talk about how much momma Kerry has done for them. They show up at the cruise and are wearing matching Vermeer Girls sweatshirt. They're blown away by all the decorations. The room though? Tiny. It's a twin bed with a single bed over top. And they immediately get to work on decorating their door. That's a big deal for cruisers. We then meet Rob & Donna - they've been together for 9 years. Rob is freakin jacked. He broke both of her ribs after trying to pop her back at the gym. And that's true love. They have a bunch of hallmark actor ornaments in their tree. She loves Paul Campbell and he loves Nikki DeLoach. They get on board and immediately bump into Jonathan Bennet and he's just wheeling and dealing like Jonathan Bennet is one to do.,We then meet Carol, Cathy, and Nate who is celebrating his 16th birthday on the cruise and he is pumped. Nate is there with his two grandmas. And he's a bit of a celeb because he posted on the cruise Facebook group that it's his birthday. We then meet Lori and her sister. They live in separate states so they're so excited to go on this cruise. Lori is a fellow Christmas crazy and is excited to decorate their room. The Veneer family are back and momma Kerry talks about how she's happily married and she knows Wes Brown is happily married, but she has been given a hall pass in case Wes is interested. She calls it her hallmark pass. My guy Rob is gonna propose to Donna and is hoping they can get married on the cruise! Night 1 comes and it's time for the Christmas tree lighting on top of the ship. We then meet Alice and Gail. Best friends since 10th grade, 46 years ago. And they are our black friends. They're excited to meet Tyler Hynes. And Alicia is gonna try to get Gail to get out of her comfort zone. So everyone's up on top of the ship. JB comes out and does his thing. Tyler Hynes comes on stage in a bath robe. It's a whole thing. Paige is very into him and she thinks they would hit it off really well. She yells at him to take it off. While momma Kerry is just going nuts over Wes Brown. We find out Paige has some news she has to tell her mom - she's moving out of Texas. But she's nervous .Victoria tells her sister Lora she's pregnant right after Lora gets them both champagne. Rob and Donna get a picture with Erin Cahill and of course she's just the sweetest. They talk to her for a bit. We find out that Donna had to have brain surgery last holiday season. So they're both really excited to be there. And he's trying to find the right time to propose to her. But not while Erin Cahill is there. It's time for Carol-oke. Gail and Alicia show up. Alicia signs them up. Gail is pissed. She does not get to that stage and Alicia shames her from the stage.  We get Gail in a confessional having to psychoanalyze why she doesn't wanna get out of her comfort zone. The sisters show up for trivia, hosted by Nikki DeLoach and Andrew Walker. And Andrew is just hugging everyone. And these sisters suck at trivia. And then there's the boot shot with Tyler Hynes. It's madness. Paige is pumped. But then Wes Brown walks in and Kerry is pumped. They hug. And Paige says “I've been told to call you step-dad”. And then Kerry says it …. You're my hallmark pass. Wes is just so chill. JB is also there and Paige is like can you give Tyler Hynes my number? And he's like I can do that. And I'm weirdly invested in this. Nate has lost his grandmas. So he's going around and asking “has anyone seen some grandmas?”. Turns out they're hiding becuase they're annoyed by Nate. Turns out his birthday isn't even today, it's December 10th. Fricken liar. So Rob goes into the gym and Paul Campbell is there. They have matching black tanks. So he tells him that he's gonna propose and wants to get married on the ship. Paul is like hey I can officiate your wedding here. He pulls Andrew walker in. Rob is like oh boy. Now I really need to ask her.

ollowing on from opening her exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, which continues until August, the US-born, Berlin-based artist Christine Sun Kim this week opened a show in London in collaboration with Thomas Mader. The exhibition, 1880 THAT, uses a notorious historic conference in Milan in 1880, which effectively outlawed sign language in Deaf education, as a springboard to explore languages and stigma in Deaf and hearing cultures today. Ben Luke discusses the show with Kim and Mader. In Abu Dhabi, the latest museum devoted to the interactive art of the Japanese collective teamLab opens this week in the Saadiyat Cultural District. The Art Newspaper's reporter in the Middle East, Melissa Gronlund, has visited the museum and tells us more about teamLab's newest immersive experience.

Curator Aimee Ng discusses the reopening and renovations of the venerable Frick Collection, including what exhibits to check out. The Frick opens to the public on April 17.

We invite you to come with us inside one of America's most interesting art museums – an institution that is BOTH an art gallery and a historic home.This is The Frick Collection, located at 1 East 70th Street, within the former Fifth Avenue mansion of Gilded Age mogul Henry Clay Frick, containing many pieces that the steel titan himself purchased, as well as many other incredible works of art from master painters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Goya, Turner, and Whistler.Frick himself had a rather complicated legacy. As a master financier and chairman of Andrew Carnegie's massive steel enterprise, Frick helped create the materials for America's railroads and bridges. But his intolerance of labor unions led to a bloody confrontation in the summer of 1892, making him, for a time, one of the most hated men in America.New Yorkers' love for the Frick Collection, however, remains far less complicated. The institution, which as been a museum since 1935, allows visitors to experience the work of the great master painters in an often regal and intimate setting, allowing people to imagine the fanciful life of the Gilded Age. The Frick Collection reopens this month after an extensive renovation (temporarily relocating the collection to the Breuer Buildiing for a few years) and we've got a sneak preview, featuring Frick curator and art historian Aimee Ng.
