![]() ![]() ![]() You are advised to be careful with the choice of your words during this time, dear Gemini, if you do not want undue tension in your love life. Those of you who are already attached might face some disappointment. For some of you, a long distance relationship is also possible during this time. This journey will be important and fruitful to you even otherwise. If you do not know your Moon Sign? You can find it out instantly.ĭuring the onset of the year 2017, there are chances of you making a long distance journey, and most probably, it will have a romantic angle to it. This horoscope is based on Moon Sign, the zodiac where Moon was present at the time of your birth. The Gemini 2017 Love Horoscope suggests that this tendency will be prevalent for almost the entire first quarter of the year 2017 for you. You would want fun and adventure, and will be less worried about the future during this time. This might bring quite a few high-octane, short-lived romances in your life, which will, however, lack potential for turning into something deep and long lasting. You want to love and be loved by someone. However, just as the year 2017 begins, you will prefer sensuality, fun, playfulness and passion to any of the rest of it. In your romantic choices, you go for intelligent and scholarly partners rather than a physical connection that fails to satisfy your mind. Dear Gemini, your ruling planet Mercury makes you crave intellectual stimulationeven in matters of the heart. ![]() ![]() ![]() The women in this movie look badder than those previous heroines did because, for the most part, they just don’t give a f. “Birds of Prey” offers the empowerment of utter irresponsibility. “Wonder Woman” and “Captain Marvel” were female-superhero movies that offered the empowerment of earnest fantasy. Yet it’s still a compellingly novel popcorn extravaganza. “Birds of Prey” is the eighth film in the DC Extended Universe, as well as the first to be rated R, and coming after the stand-alone phenomenon of “Joker,” it’s a comic-book movie that isn’t pretending, in a single moment, to cast a spell of poetic awe. Harley outshone her hellion comrades before, and she does the same thing here - though Mary Elizabeth Winstead, as the crossbow-wielding Huntress, has a fierce, cool, sizing-you-up implacability that’s potent enough to be spinoff-ready. ![]() If anything, it’s a tighter film than “Suicide Squad,” but it’s been directed, by Cathy Yan (“Dead Pigs”), with the same sort of in-your-face slapdash aesthetic, ramping up the comics into cheeky overdrive. As a movie, it’s thin, lively, loud, brash, diverting and forgettable. “Birds of Prey” is a superhero-team origin story that tracks how Harley, mostly through sheer happenstance, comes together with a collection of misfits to form a motley crew of kick-ass superheroines. ![]() So there was every reason to hope that building an entire movie around her would pay off in a big way. Harley, who made her first DC Comics appearance in 1992, was obviously the best thing about “Suicide Squad,” the ramshackle smash of a 2016 DC movie caper. With her platinum-blonde hair split into tinted pigtails (one pink, one blue), her pasty face bedecked with tattoos of a small black heart and the word “ROTTEN,” and that light-up-the-room-with-insanity grin, she’s a psycho siren who teeters between vengeance and valor, turning one into the other. The inspired spark of Margot Robbie’s performance is that she plays Harley as a party girl who is also a total freak - the ringleader of her own playground. Her face, as much of an emblem as the Joker’s, is a pure fusion of glee and rage, the two melted into a mask of sick fun. (It beats therapy.) Harley talks like a gum-snapping Brooklyn kewpie doll out of a ’40s studio comedy, and it’s part of her possessed quality that she can size up someone’s psychological profile in a rapid-fire heartbeat, spewing the kind of analysis that people pay good money to hear. Early on, she gets closure on her fizzled relationship with the Joker by sending an oil truck speeding into a giant chemical refinery and blowing it sky high. A former psychiatrist who tumbled through a cracked looking glass when she fell for the Joker (one of her patients) and joined him in the underworld, she’s a glittering head case who look like a demented punk cheerleader and appears, against all odds, to be in full control of her ongoing mental breakdown. In “Birds of Prey,” Harley Quinn is a screw-loose avenger who suggests Uma Thurman in the “Kill Bill” films crossed with Ryan Reynolds in “Deadpool,” with a nod to Juliette Lewis in “Natural Born Killers” delivering that opening diner ass-thrashing to the sounds of L7’s “S-list.” Harley’s rock ‘n’ roll action moves are fast, loose and out of control, whether she’s snapping limbs in between bullet-time flips or charging through a police station blasting a gun that leaves the men around her collapsed in piles of multi-colored glitter.īut Harley’s mind, too, never stops racing. ![]() ![]() ![]() Scroll down below to shop the best gag gifts you can find on Amazon - and maybe keep a few for yourself too. ![]() ![]() But what’s the point of buying a gag gift in a year of undeniable mayhem if you’re not going to go completely unhinged?

These are complemented by the combined 70 acres of the Ballestra and River parcels, which envelop the winery. Two parcels, totaling 100 acres, are within the renowned To Kalon Vineyard. The estate vineyards of Opus One, comprised of four parcels, sit in the western portion of the famed Oakville AVA in Napa Valley. Opus One is a partnership founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Pauillac, France, and renowned Napa Valley vintner, Robert Mondavi. Learn about Opus One, it’s history, the winery and the wine. Constellation Brands acquired Robert Mondavi Winery in 2004 and reached an agreement with Baron Philippe de Rothschild SA in the following year to continue Opus One as a 50/50 joint venture. As of today, 2013 is the best wine in the history of the estate.īaroness Philippine de Rothschild inaugurated the new Opus One winery, one of the architectural gems of the Napa Valley, in 1991.

But it’s perfect if you feel like a splurge. If you don’t happen to be a tech billionaire, San Jose’s Michelin-starred Adega may be off the cards (though it’s a historical landmark itself, as the first West Coast Portuguese restaurant to win the accolade). ![]() The property’s on-site cafe serves simple burgers, wraps, salads and the like, as well as coffee and tea. One exhibits Winchester rifles through the ages, while the other displays antique products marketed by the Winchester brand (spot the “gun smoke” cologne). The estate also has two small museums, included in the ticket price. On the Explore More tour, August shows the basement where a man pushing a wheelbarrow to the coal chute is often seen: “He always tips his hat,” she says. Note it is not suitable for children aged 10 and under, and visitors will need to wear a hard hat (provided).Įven the tour guides believe the house is haunted – but they say the ghosts are friendly. (“He left with more questions than answers,” according to guide Melissa August).Įxplore More is slated to expire in February, but Kampschafer says demand has been so high, it may be extended. Ticket-holders are taken into unfinished rooms never before seen by the public, including the “witch’s cap” turret – also believed to have been a seance room – that Houdini visited to disprove rumors about the house. The Explore More tour can be tacked on to the Mansion tour for an extra $10, and lasts about an hour. Tickets cost $39, with a small discount for seniors. The standard Mansion tour, 65 minutes, focuses on historical and factual details, including Winchester’s spooky lore. Ticket prices vary, but expect to pay around $49. The annual Halloween Candlelight tour and the Friday the 13th Flashlight tour are conducted at night, featuring ghost stories recounted by former employees and guests. The house appeals to everyone from paranormal fans to architecture nerds and offers tours to match. “There’s this popular conception she was crazy, but spiritualism and seances and whatnot were really normal at the time,” she points out.Īnother guide, Mario Ramirez, says many people assume Sarah was a recluse, but insists: “She was actually one of the top socialites in the area.” Personally, Kampschafer thinks Sarah gets a bad rap. She could have been trying to outrun the supernatural, but she also could just have been a really, really bad architect. There is little in the way of hard facts known about Sarah. As Mariah Kampschafer, who has worked as a guide at the house since 2012, admits, most tales about Sarah and her home are conjecture. Visitors will walk narrow, zig-zagging staircases, spot curiosities like upside-down pillars and cupboards a half-inch deep, and even see rooms damaged by the deadly 1906 San Francisco earthquake (which also removed the house’s fifth, sixth and seventh floors).īut of all the enduring mysteries surrounding Winchester, perhaps Sarah is the biggest. Whatever the truth, a tour of the mansion is packed with strange insights and intriguing theories. ![]() Legend has it, however, the widow believed herself haunted by the spirits of those killed by Winchester rifles. (The average daily wage back then was $1.50.) After her husband, William Wirt Winchester, passed, she received an inheritance of $1,000 a day. Sarah could build such a lavish abode because she was heiress to the Winchester rifle fortune. Just as extraordinary is its sheer size: what started as a two-story farmhouse was transformed by Sarah into a seven-story, castle-like residence, with 160 rooms, 47 fireplaces and 10,000 panes of glass. There are also many decorative spider-web patterns – people believed the latter would bring good luck at the time. (Guides nickname this room “the mother-in-law suite.”)Įerie motifs abound: the number 13 appears everywhere (ceilings with 13 panels 13 coat hooks in the “seance room”. Look out for staircases that lead to ceilings windows set into floors a door that opens onto a 12-foot drop. The house, a sprawling puzzle of carnival funhouse-esque quirks, perplexes mere mortals as much as malevolent spirits. Stealing a peek inside the house isn’t confined to the theater, though – you can easily visit yourself. The Oscar winner portrays Sarah Winchester, who it’s said designed the eccentric home to bamboozle ghosts. But it has drawn international travel attention thanks to the 2018 release of “Winchester,” a horror movie starring Helen Mirren. Winchester Mystery House has loomed large in the imaginations of San Jose locals ever since it was built in 1884. It’s not a convoy of self-driving cars or a brigade of AI robots, but an extravagant, four-story, gabled and turreted Victorian mansion said to be “the most haunted in America.” There’s an odd sight just outside downtown San Jose, California’s “capital of Silicon Valley.” ![]() ![]() One shows how the newly commissioned interventions interact with the Collection of Solidarity the other coincides with a historical reconstruction of events that happened from the 1963 earthquake to “Skopje 2014” – a controversial urbanistic project initiated in 2010 that was financed by the then-ruling nationalist party. The Skopje Solidarity Collection, Kunsthalle Wien 2023, photo: This is particularly evident in the manner through which the artistic team have organized the exhibition space, according to two trajectories. As in the lines of the poem from which WHW have borrowed the exhibition’s title, poet Rainer Maria Rilke encourages readers to examine the facts of life for what they are – in their beauty and obscurity, seemingly, No Feeling is Final provides visitors with the tools to analyze the present critically, without losing an eye toward the future. While the tragic nature of these kinds of events is a presence in the room, it is not the dominant viewpoint from which the events of 1963 have been told – but rather the contrary. ![]() Even if No Feeling is Final had been conceived two years ago, when neither the recent earthquake in Turkey nor the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine were urgent realities as they are today, a parallel between today and the events of the 1960s’ rises spontaneously in anyone’s eyes. The Contemporary Art Museum (MoCA) Skopje was created through this initial gesture of generosity. It was not a bourgeois taste that generated this collection but rather the genuine donations of more than a hundred artists who sent artworks of different media and styles to the North Macedonian capital. Informed by these ambitions, No Feeling is Final has reanimated the historical memory that happened within the broader historical context of the Cold War, such as the amassing of a collection of more than 100 works that followed the destruction of the urban area of Skopje, due to an earthquake in 1963. ![]() ![]() Since then, the curatorial trio has proposed a unique program encompassing monographic exhibitions and group shows leading to international collaborations, that demonstrate their commitment to fueling productive exchange, often between the Western Balkans – where they come from – and Central Europe – where they have relocated themselves, through locally informed and context-aware sensibilities, and by using the exhibition as a tool for political debate – to paraphrase their voices. In the spring of 2024, No Feeling is Final will travel to the National Gallery of Prague and then return to its original caretaker, MoCA, Skopje, at the end of next year.Įlfie Semotan, Untitled (Still Life), Skopje, 2022, courtesy Studio Semotan © Elfie Semotan.Īfter twenty years of working from Zagreb, Croatia, with many high-profile international projects, Ivet Ćurlin, Nataša Ilić, and Sabina Sabolovićhave took leadership of Kunsthalle Wien, following the resignation of former director Nicolaus Schafhausen in 2019. Finally, they asked photographer, Elfie Semotan, and the Serbian, Vienna-based fiction writer, Barbi Marković, to create a visual and written commentary on the preparatory path that led to the collection’s arrival in the Austrian capital. In close collaboration with Contemporary Art Museum (MoCA) Skopje, the WHW invited six artists to engage with the artworks of this one-of-a-kind collection: Belgrade-based artist Siniša Ilić, the Macedonian duo Yane Calovski and Hristina Ivanoska, Turkish filmmaker and visual artist Gülsün Karamustafa, Australian artist Brook Andrew, and Egyptian artist Iman Issa. The Skopje Solidarity Collection, an exhibition that opened at Kunsthalle Wien, on the 20th of April and will last until the 28th of January, 2024, the artistic team, formed by the curatorial collective WHW (What, How & for Whom), challenges visitors’ on what “solidarity” might mean in today’s socio-political climate by anchoring their proposal on a concrete case study: the Collection of Solidarity of the Contemporary Art Museum (MoCA) Skopje. ![]() What makes a collection exhibition worth attending is the curatorial ability to show, against any forms of assumption, how a specific collection can reorient us in the way we look at the issues of the present, and to demonstrate that the conditions in which the collection has been assembled still hold a specific historical weight that has not been investigated enough yet. ![]() ![]() ![]() It is much like their contemporaries however, MTV Unplugged is a phenomenal documentation of ‘90s rock and stands among some of the greatest live records ever released. MTV Unplugged is a vastly different album compared to Nirvana and Alice In Chains – the former’s set comprised largely of covers and deep cuts while the latter largely avoided their hits – as Pearl Jam perform some of their biggest tracks from their massive debut album, Ten, released the previous year in a stripped-down, bare bones fashion that remains fresh, energized, and, somehow, hard-hitting. Having achieved mythological status among the greatest MTV Unplugged concerts, Pearl Jam lives up to near 30 years of hype on their latest live record. Much like Vedder’s political actions, “Porch” is a relentless closer that brings MTV Unplugged to a climatic close. For a closer, Pearl Jam dives into the fast paced and intense “Porch” which will likely best be remembered as Vedder took the chance to write “pro-choice” on his arms during the performance – a massive act of protest when you consider how big the band was quickly becoming and the audience they were reaching through MTV. Much like “Alive”, “Even Flow” again brings a driving rock performance to the acoustic setting. Vedder’s vocals and ability to bring a raw sense of emotion to his performance particularly shines here. “Alive” with its lengthy solo section certainly brings a a show-stopping sense of excitement, while ballads “Black” and “Jeremy” feel like a natural shift from electric to acoustic. The remaining five songs take the listener through some of Pearl Jam’s biggest hits from Ten. ![]() It is here that one will notice that rather than write alternative arrangements or choose a selection of songs that would lend themselves to an acoustic setting, Pearl Jam have simply swapped out the amps for acoustic guitars and, in a refreshing twist, have maintained the feel, integrity, and style of their work which, in some sense brings a different sense of life to the performance and, ultimately, makes for a unique acoustic performance, even 28 years later. The band, consisting of Mike McCready and Stone Gossard on acoustic guitars, Jeff Ament with a subdued but plugged in bass, and original drummer Dave Abbruzzese, follow Vedder through the soaring artistic highs of the alternative ballad before kicking off into the up-tempo hard-rocking – and originally unreleased B-side, “State Of Love And Trust”. Opening with the lush chords and Eddie Vedder’s melodic musings on “Oceans”, MTV Unplugged gets off to a slow introduction that quickly grows in scale and intensity. Having been issued on vinyl for Record Store Day 2019, Pearl Jam have now officially released MTV Unplugged on all platforms to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their first ever performance as a band. While few, if any, will ever surpass the live albums from Nirvana and Alice In Chains’ respective sessions, Pearl Jam’s 1992 concert has long been sought out as a bootleg.

So how is it to play the desktop RPG on a tablet? And compared to iPad ports of games like Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate 2, Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a thoroughly modern experience. But for the novelty of taking Divinity: Original Sin 2 on the go, players who already have the pricey and powerful tablets now have a new 100-plus hour RPG to take with them. And like other graphically-intensive mobile games, this one drains battery, sucking just under 25% in an hour of play during our time with it. Unfortunately, the game’s graphical and performance demands mean the 2017 iPad Pro and older models can’t run the game, though it will work on the souped-up iPad Air 2020.
