And in 1997, she created "The View," an all-female live talk show that tackled any and every topic.ĭuring her decades at NBC and ABC, she earned her reputation as a tough interviewer with incisive questioning of newsmakers, celebrities, politicians and world leaders. But co-anchoring with Harry Reasoner proved disastrous, and ABC News president Roone Arledge moved her into special projects, with primetime interview specials and contributions to the newsmagazine "20/20," a show she would eventually co-host. Walters would become the co-host of "Today," only to be lured away by ABC News in 1976, becoming the first woman to anchor an evening network newscast, earning an unprecedented $1 million salary. In addition to "Today," she also hosted the syndicated morning show "Not for Women Only." She began making on-air appearances with light, offbeat stories, for which she once wore bunny ears to report on the life of a Playboy bunny. Writing for male correspondents would become only one of many glass ceilings she would break. Trailblazing broadcaster Barbara Walters (September 25, 1929-December 30, 2022) forged a path for women in an industry that was dominated by men, so much so that, when she was hired as a writer for NBC's "Today" in 1961, she was only allowed to write for women. Barry O'Rourke /Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images Francis would say having Benedict at the Vatican was like having a "wise grandfather" living at home. The two lived as neighbors, an unprecedented arrangement, as Benedict wrote and lived a monastic life in the Vatican Gardens. There were also PR gaffes he was criticized for telling reporters, in 2009, that distributing condoms would increase, not decrease, the spread of AIDS.īut he was also forced to confront the fallout of the church's sex abuse scandal, and notably apologized to victims.īenedict's dramatic decision to retire, rather than to remain in office until his death, paved the way for the election of Pope Francis, a more progressive cleric. As a conservative, many of his actions (such as relaxing the restrictions on Latin mass) satisfied traditionalists, but were controversial among more progressive voices in the clergy. He reached out to other faiths, and became only the second pope in history to enter a synagogue. It seems as if everything would be just the same even without Him." On his first foreign trip as pope, at a 2005 World Youth Day gathering in Cologne, Germany, he told a million attendees, "In vast areas of the world today, there is a strange forgetfulness of God. He used his position to redirect the world's focus on faith in an era of secularization. The first German pope in a thousand years, Benedict – born Joseph Ratzinger – was a theologian and writer devoted to history and tradition, who was elected to succeed Pope John Paul II. The then-85-year-old thus became the first pope in 600 years to resign. Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI (April 16, 1927-December 31, 2022) stunned the world in 2013 when he announced, after eight years in office, that he lacked the strength to continue as head of the Catholic Church.

Pope Benedict XVI is greeted by the faithful in Les Combes in 2005. The series chronicles the exploits and adventures of the title character and his various friends in the fictional underwater city of Bikini Bottom. The season was executive produced by series creator Hillenburg, who also acted as the showrunner. Hillenburg halted production on the show to work on the 2004 film adaptation of the series, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. After production on the film, Hillenburg resigned from the show as its showrunner, and appointed staff writer, Paul Tibbitt, to overtake the position. Season three was originally set to be the final season of the series, with the film acting as a series finale, but the success prevented the series from ending, leading to a fourth season. The season received acclaim from media critics and fans. During its run, SpongeBob SquarePants became (and remains) the highest rated children's show on cable, with over 50 million viewers a month. The show received several recognitions, including its nomination at the Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children's Program. The episodes "New Student Starfish" and "Clams" were nominated for Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming Less Than One Hour) category, while the entry "SpongeBob B.C. (Ugh)" was also nominated for the same category. The season was also the first time the show received a nomination at the Kids' Choice Awards and won. It won the 2003 Kids' Choice Awards for Favorite Cartoon, and also won the following year's Kids' Choice Award for the same category. Celebrities-including Justin Timberlake, Kelly Osbourne, Britney Spears, Bruce Willis, Noel Gallagher, Dr. Dre, and Mike Myers-have been reported to be fans of the show. Several compilation DVDs that contained episodes from the season were released. The SpongeBob SquarePants: The Complete 3rd Season DVD was released in Region 1 on September 27, 2005, Region 2 on December 3, 2007, and Region 4 on November 8, 2007. The season aired on Nickelodeon, which is owned by Viacom, and was produced by United Plankton Pictures and Nickelodeon Animation Studio. The season's executive producer was series creator Stephen Hillenburg, who also functioned as the showrunner. During production of the previous season, Nickelodeon already picked up a third season for SpongeBob SquarePants on September 20, 2000, due to the show's high ratings across basic cable television. It premiered more than a year later, on October 5, 2001. In 2002, Hillenburg and the show's staff members decided to stop making episodes to work on the 2004 film The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, after completing production of the third season. As a result, the show went into a "self-imposed" two-year hiatus on television. During the break, Nickelodeon expanded the programming for the third season to cover the delay, however, according to Nickelodeon executive Eric Coleman, "there certainly was a delay and a built-up demand." Nickelodeon announced nine "as-yet-unaired" (full) episodes would be shown. " The Sponge Who Could Fly" first aired during a two-hour "Sponge"-a-thon, while the other eight were broadcast subsequently. He wrote the score to the film Darkness on the Edge of Town. Alex also played on and did the orchestral arrangements on Hozier’s Better Love and co-produced Saint Sister’s EP and subsequent singles. Previously, he played with Trinity Orchestra and has an accomplished choral background. This book describes some of his family history and gives a different view of the President than may be seen just from textbooks.ABOUT: Alex played bass with backing vocals and was the Musical Director on the Hozier tour from the very early tours in 2013 through to March 2016. There is even a section in the back with an outline of his schedule from the trip. This would be great to use in a history class while learning about President Kennedy. The story is great and the illustrations are really nice. The story captures the excitement that comes with events like this. I liked that this book was written about an event that is not commonly remembered as a part of history but was a big deal for the people in this town in Ireland. At the party, Patrick not only gets to see the President up close, but he gets to shake his hand and talk to him. When the big day comes, Patrick is astounded to see the President in person but does not get to shake his hand when they are singing. He also finds out that he will be working at a party that will be thrown for the President. Patrick learns that all the kids at his school will be singing for the President after his helicopter lands. The whole town of New Ross is abuzz because of the announcement of the visit. It it told through the perspective of a boy named Patrick. This book describes the 1963 trip that President John F. I think this book will be appealing and popular to those who have Irish ancestry, and perhaps for those looking for an unique story about President Kennedy, but will have little general interest. Kennedy's trip to Ireland happened, but outside of Ireland it’s not as compelling. Even from a history standpoint, there is little here that could be used in a classroom setting. The illustrations have a realistic look to them and there is a lot of text on every page-making this book a hard sell for any sort of read aloud or for younger readers. I think it would have been a better book had Patrick's story actually been true. This historical fiction picture book sticks closely to the actual story of President Kennedy's trip to Ireland, but the boy at the heart of the story-Patrick-is apparently entirely fictionalized. He gets to actually shake President Kennedy's hand, and that moment is a story his family holds tight to and tells about for years and years to come. His school sings at JFK's arrival, and later he serves the US President at a tea party. A young schoolboy, Patrick, is beyond excited for the opportunity to possibly meet this famous man. Kennedy has announced he will be returning to his ancestral homeland, Ireland, for an official visit. Highly recommended to anyone looking for picture-books featuring Ireland, the Irish-American relationship, and/or President Kennedy. Lynch, is just lovely, capturing the beauty and elegance of the period, and the emotional resonance of each scene in the story. The watercolor artwork, done by Irish Laureate na n'Og - Young People's Laureate - P.J. The story is heartfelt and poignant, highlighting an important moment in the relationship between Ireland and the USA. But will Patrick have a chance to meet the big man himself.?Īfter researching the impact of President Kennedy's visit to Ireland for his adult book, JFK in Ireland: Four Days that Changed a President, author Tubridy returns to the topic in this, his debut children's title. Even more exciting is the fact that he has been asked to assist at the tea being given by the local Kennedy cousins for their distant kinsman. Excited at the news that President Kennedy will be visiting his hometown in County Wexford, Patrick is part of the preparations for the big event, and is included in the choir of pupils who will sing for the visiting dignitary. Irish journalist and media personality Ryan Tubridy presents this fictionalized look at JFK's visit to Ireland in 1963, as seen through the eyes of a young schoolboy named Patrick. The idea came together when we saw an Instagram video of Scott’s nephews smushing their faces up against a piece of plastic or something. We made this video on my back porch in Halifax with the very talented photographer Ali Seglins. Calm, and rise a-feared.” Via email, frontman Nick Everett clarified the impetus for the video: The lyrics’ fluctuating anxiety blends with the upbeat, frenetic rhythm, echoing the video’s playfulness and slight discomfort: “The restless hour, the restless noise. The self-proclaimed “shapeshifters” smush their faces into clear glass, distorting their bodies into awkward and amusing forms that fidget with the beat, reducing their bodies to fleshy instruments. It follows the record’s first single and video “ Helah,” a disproportionately soothing precursor to today’s release.ĭirector Ali Seglins matches this new song’s spinning melody and modern medieval lyricism with an equally eccentric visual.

You're seeing something intricate and beautiful for the first time and it's completely contained within you." Produced by Nick Everett, mixed by Alex Shepard, Rough Master is a record you suspect won't be easily contained. Suddenly you know more than you did a second before and your mind is whirling, and there's no one around to tell. You're walking alone, your mind's wandering, thinking of nothing in particular, then BAM. "All my anger fell away and there I sat to think an hour or so on the war-torn colonnade." It's about enlightenment: "the feeling of a Eureka moment. "All along the Rue des Champs, on a sea of high-planed dreams," sings Nick on 'Champs'. You've bought pizza, a case of beer and everything's packed.Īs expected, none of your friends show up to help and you're left schlepping boxes alone all day, getting a bit too drunk," the band explains. 'Nothing' meanwhile is "about moving on a beautiful, sunny day. "It's Seinfeld, but what the hell isn't?" says Nick, adding they "pull a bit from everywhere." Completed by live drummer Adam White and live guitarist Scott Boudreau, Mauno's Rough Master is a journal of "the kind of music that's churning in our minds when we're not focused on grocery lists." Opener 'Reeling' sets the tone: a gentle lament at growing old that descends into a loose yet lush release before the chaos of 'Manitoba'. Over the course of Rough Master it strays from twisting grunge-pop on 'Again', to a breezy lilt on 'Champs', to piano ambience ('Pulses') and string-accompanied haze ('Reeling') elsewhere.īut then, what do you expect when Eliza has a background in classical cello and old R&B, while Nick boasts a record collection jammed with choral and folk? The result is an album that sounds like a windows-rolled-down summer road trip with the cast of Seinfeld.Įlaine doesn't want to listen to music, George is very focused on the road, Kramer is sporadically buzzing through his iPod listening to half-songs from every genre possible, and Jerry is reading whilst eating spicy Cheetos.

Rough Master, the group's smart, intricate new album, has at least this in common with the city where it was forged.įull of familiar and charming shimmery guitar-and less-familiar, somewhat absurd stories written over rueful meals in empty apartments-Rough Master is a record you too will just keep getting drawn back into.įormed in September 2014, Mauno - pronounced Mao-no, and named after bassist Eliza Niemi's adamantly unmusical Finnish grandfather - have a wandering sound that refuses to be pinned down. "At times, it's really boring, which I find useful for writing songs-not being distracted. "Halifax is a weird little town," says frontman Nick Everett of the Canadian peninsula they call home, where life unfolds in a slow-drift of tiny moments never more than a stone's throw from the sea. F boredom really does breed creativity, then Nova Scotia weirdo pop-rock sophisticates Mauno must be four intensely bored individuals.

Here’s how to get to the Wreckage Zone in Outriders for the Outriders Legacy Quest. It’s really easy to find though, and the reward for finishing this quest is more than worth the effort. The only problem is, most people don’t know where the Wreckage Zone is at this point in the game.

Greg settles on the song "We’re a Happy Family" as a representation of the Ramones knack for writing catchy social commentary. Jim plays " Sheena is a Punk Rocker", calling it the "perfect rock song" and reminiscing about his young days listening to The Ramones. To stake their flag in the dissection's conclusion, Jim and Greg each choose their favorite song from Rocket to Russia. Tommy tells all, including the story of the band's suburban origins and the secret behind Dee Dee's famous, though not-so-useful count-offs. Jim and Greg, curious about the magic behind masters of punk, ask Tommy about the day-to-day during the recording process and the band's cross-pond rivalry with British punk group the Sex Pistols. This week, Jim and Greg revisit a Classic Album Dissection of The Ramones' 1977 speed machine featuring their 2007 conversation with drummer and producer Tommy Ramone. However, it wasn't until the next year, after a monumental European tour and the release of their third album, Rocket to Russia, that the group's characteristic break-neck punk sound flooded the airwaves and the took the rock world by storm. In 1976, The Ramones blasted onto the budding punk scene with their self-titled first LP and blew critics away with their blistering speed and old-school simplicity. The hosts were joined by Donna Gaines, sociologist, journalist, and author of the book Why The Ramones Matter, to discuss the musical, social, and even political contributions of the band. And although they were never at the top of the charts, their influence on both punk music and on American culture at large is undeniable. The original line-up was lead singer Joey Ramone, guitarist Johnny Ramone, bass guitarist Dee Dee Ramone and drummer Tommy Ramone. The Ramones formed in Queens, New York in 1974. This time, they're tackling a question that may be obvious to some: Why do the Ramones Matter? This week, Jim and Greg present another installment of our Summer School series. Greg acknowledges that with so much celebration and without deep reflection the album can be a chore to get through. Jim says with more brutal honesty, this album could have been a masterpiece. They both feel Chance is capable of much more complexity in his lyrics, though they find the production and performances on most songs to be very enjoyable. Jim and Greg both cite the confessional lyrics of " We Go High" as a noble gesture of honesty, but ultimately find the treatment of weighty topics such as fidelity, mortality and parenthood lack depth. Some critics consider the subject matter uncool, though Greg doesn't count himself among them. The Big Day is referencing Chance's recent wedding to his longtime girlfriend, which is the most common topic discussed in the songs. The Big Day features many guest performers including Death Cab For Cutie, Shawn Mendes, Gucci Mane, Nicki Minaj, John Legend and Randy Newman.Īt 19 songs (plus three skits) and 82 minutes running time, Jim and Greg agree the album is too long. Since then Chance has expanded his focus beyond music: producing stadium concerts, supporting local politicians, donating $1 million to Chicago Public Schools and buying the news website, Chicagoist. His third mixtape, Coloring Book, was the first streaming-only release to win a Grammy award- three, in fact, including Rap Album of the Year.

Tommy died 10 years later, on July 11th, 2014, making him the last original member of the Ramones to die. Johnny Ramone died in his sleep in Los Angeles on September 15th, 2004.

We would not say that Fez is beautiful in the classic sense – certainly not. Smells, tastes, noises – nobody here is spared from their overwhelming senses. At first we weren’t sure: should we like it or hate it here? Sometimes we were fascinated, then disgusted, sometimes excited, sometimes horrified. The Fez medina can be a little overwhelming, as it was for us. That atmosphere and vibe, which Marrakesh seems to miss – you will find it in Fes! Fez was without a doubt one of our favorite places on our trip to Morocco. More original, more authentic, more exciting.

A handy tip is to note the ‘main’ streets that eventually lead to a gate or landmark – just follow the general flow of people. Navigation can be confusing and getting lost at some stage is a certainty, but look at this as part of the adventure. Everywhere, listen out for the call to prayer or the mule driver’s cry 'balak!'

Following your nose will lead you to women with bundles of freshly cut herbs, children carrying trays of loaves to be baked in the local bakery or a cafe selling glasses of spiced Berber coffee. It pays to do a little random exploration and simply follow your nose or ears to discover the most unexpected charms of Fez’ nature. The major sights are really only a small part of the charm of the medina. R'cif is likely to provide an alternate focus for the medina. The R’cif area has undergone a big facelift with a smart new gate and refurbished square and the river has been upgraded. From here, it’s uphill to reach the northern gates of Bab Guissa and Bab Jamaï, or head south towards Bab R’cif. Both converge near Place An Nejjarine, continuing to the Kairaouine Mosque and Zawiya Moulay Idriss II – the heart of the city. On your left as you enter is Talaa Kebira (Big Slope), with Talaa Seghira (Little Slope) on your right. Today, around 90,000 Fassis still call this maze of twisting alleys, blind turns and hidden souqs home, while tourists call it one of the most mind-boggling places they’ll visit in Morocco.īab Bou Jeloud in the west is the main entrance to the old city, with two main streets descending into the medina’s heart. The essential footprint of the medina hasn’t changed in nearly a millennium, as the surrounding hills have constrained expansion – the last big growth of the traditional medina was in the 13th century with the construction of Fez El Jdid. Travelling from the Ville Nouvelle to Fez El Bali is like stepping back in time. |
