Theatre in Melbourne 1882

"News has been received from Creswick that the Australian Gold Mine has been flooded. Forty men were at work when the outburst of water occurred; of these 14 escaped, and 26 are still underground. There is now 40ft of water in the main shaft, and the pumps available are quite inadequate to cope with the task of pumping out the mine. Arrangements are being made for additional pumps and engine power. Faint hopes are entertained, however, that those in the mine will succeed in escaping. The scene at the mouth of the mine when the disaster was made known was most distressing."
(Melbourne 12th December 1882 by Telegram) |
The Theatre Royal, Melbourne

"We found the Theatre Royal at be a large, dusty, primitive building, with poor accommodation for the audience, and still more wretched arrangements for the actors behind the scenes. The scenic department, so far as the painting is concerned, was excellent, so was the furniture of the stage; but oh! the disorder, the confusion, and the mess. No expense seemed to be spared but such disorder, besides entailing waste, must engender lack of discipline in other departments."
Dion Boucicault on the Theatre Royal, Melbourne.

In 1882 J.C. Williamson, Arthur Garner and George Musgrove formed a partnership ("The Triumvirate") controlling the Theatre Royal and Princess Theatre in Melbourne and the Sydney Theatre Royal and Adelaide Theatre Royal. This was instituted in May and this marked the beginning of the mighty Williamson theatre organisation. For over eighty years it was to be the principal purveyor of theatrical entertainment in Australia and New Zealand. The first production by the Triumvirate was Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Patience' which opened at the Theatre Royal on July 1st.

'Gulliver' continued most of the month and saw a return to the Victorian stage of the burlesque actress, Carry Nelson.
Reviewing Carry Nelson the Argus said "we can write with unqualified gratification. The hearty reception which greeted her appearance upon the stage must have convinced her, if she ever doubted it, that long as was the interval which had taken place since her last appearance she was not by any means forgotten. Miss Carry Nelson left the colony a bright and clever girl, full of promise, but with undeveloped powers. She returns to it with that promise more than fulfilled, and with her splendid gifts of voice, personal attractions, and histrionic ability ripened into maturity."
'Gulliver' finished on January 27th.
On Saturday the 28th Burdett Howe and Julia Hayward (Mrs Howe) and company opened for a short season with 'The Chain, or the Rabbi's Son', written for Howe by E. Manuel.
"Mr. Howe exhibits a good deal of energy amd melodramatic excitement as the Rabbi's son, and does not appear to have improved during the years he has been absent from us, but has been stilted and stagey." (Argus)
Princess Theatre
'Dick Whittington' continued throughout the month.
"The scenery has never been surpassed, if ever equaled, in this hemisphere. The mediaeval pictures of London, the panorama, and the transformation scene are works of high art, in which details are carefully studied, and every effect calculated to please the eye or gratify the mind is brought out with a vivid reality that is praiseworthy and excellent." (Age)
The pantomime finished on January 27th.
Opera House
'Olivette' played successfully the entire month of January.
"Amongst the sunordinate parts, pretty little bits, both for speaking and singing are freely distributed, and the manner in which they are rendered shows better in this than any preceding piece under the present management how good is the material of which the rank and file is composed." (Argus)
Theatre Royal
'Dick Whittington' continued to attract audiences throughout the month.
Bijou
The Burdett Howe and Julia Haywood season continued. On February 4th the company played 'The Sisters'.
"Miss Hayward has the best part in the piece, and throws herself into it with laudable earnestness, infusing into it a certain amount of vagabondish humour, making up exceedingly well as the street urchin, and carrying the sympathies of the audience entirely with her." (Argus)
This was followed on February 11th by 'Shamus na Leena'.
This "evidently hit the taste of the audience, for the applause with which it was received was not merely frequent but uproarious, and the recalls were numerous and also boisterous in their heartiness. Mr. Burdett Howe is seen and heard to unusual advantage in the character of Shamus na Leena, which he plays with an abundance of spirit and humour." (Argus)
On Saturday 25th the drama 'Michael Strogoff' opened. This was a dramatisation by Basil Henry.
"The part of Michael Strogoff was played in a very powerful manner by Mr. Burdett Howe, who during the night received several special marks of approval at the hands of the audience. If a suggestion might be permitted, it would be that he should be less solemn ard tragic at the beginning of the play, and then, when he does, in his assumed character, encounter great misfortunes, the grief and dejection which they inspire, would stand out in forcible contrast with a previous cheerful or animated demeanour." (Argus)
Theatre Royal
The pantomime finally finished on February 3rd.
On Saturday 4th Grattan Riggs was engaged for a short season. First was 'The Shaughraun' with Emilie Fenwick.
Emilie Fenwick's "voice is clear, distinct, and musical, although on Saturday night she was scarcely heard to the best advantage, partly on account of a little timidly natural to a first appearance and partly owing to the irrespressible enthusiasm of the gallery." (Argus)
On February 11th there was a double bill consisting of 'Handy Andy' and 'The Irish Emigrant'.
"Mr. Grattan Riggs, by means of his own ability, contrived in the character of the blundering hero to keep the audience in good humour and amused." (Argus on Handy Andy)
This was followed a week later by 'The Irish Detective' in which the artist played seven characters. On February 25th 'Shin Fane' was produced. The artist here played five characters.
| Grattan Riggs (1835-1899) was born in Buffalo, New York. He established himself at various theatres in New York. He arrived in Australia in 1880 and was remembered for his comic Irish parts. He continually travelled Australia until his death in Tasmania. |
Princess Theatre
On January 28th Fred Marshall inaugurated his regular season with Sterling Coyne's 'Everybody's Friend', which he renamed 'The Major'. The cast also included G.S. Titheridge, Frank Cates and Annie Taylor. This was succeeded on February 4th by 'Crutch and Toothpick', by G.R. Sims.
"The part of Felix Featherley fits Mr. Titheridge almost as well as if it had been written for him, and he plays it with an ease, a savoir faire, and a happy mixture of domestic languor, and extra-domestic activity." (Argus)
The last night of 'Crutch and Toothpick' was on Friday 24th. On Saturday 25th there was for the first time in Melbourne the latest American comedy success 'The Professor', by W.H. Gillette.
"The dialogue, which is of very light description, is cleverly written, and many of the scenes are contrived with a fine sense of humour, which the excellent acting of the company brought well to the surface." (Argus)
Opera House
The final performance of 'Olivette' was on February 11th. The company then headed to Adelaide.
The Mendelssohn Quintette Club with Cora R. Miller played a mixed classical programme for a week commencing on Tuesday the 14th. The final performance was on Saturday the 25th.
The Argus said of the last performance "The audience was composed largely of those who had heard the Quintette Club frequently. It may be taken for granted that these enjoyed themselves as connoisseurs, knowing what to expect - while it may be said of the others who heard the Quintette for the first time, that they regretted not having heard them sooner."
The Quintette would make an occasional appearance at the Athenaeum Hall and the Town Hall during the next couple of weeks.
The Opera house then closed until mid March.
Bijou
'Michael Strogoff' continued to play to successful houses. The last night of the season was on Monday the 13th with a special benefit double bill consisting of 'Grinaldi, or the life of an actress' and 'Black-Eyed Susan'.
The Burdett Howe company then headed for New Zealand.
On Tuesday the 14th the theatre's own comedy company opened a short season. This featured G.B.W. Lewis. The opening production was 'The Big Bonanza', by Paul Forestier. This was the first performance in Australia.
"There is nothing new in the materials relied on by the dramatist for his effects, but they are used in a workmanlike manner, and the result is an eminently actable play." (Argus)
After a week 'The Big Bonanza' made way for a series of double bills. [Editor's note: G.B. W. Lewis was the manager of the original Princess Theatre when it opened in 1854 as Alley's Amphitheatre.]
On Monday March 27th the Montague Turner Grand Opera season commenced. This featured soprano Annis Montague and tenor Charles Turner both making their first appearance in Melbourne. The opening production was Balfe's popular 'The Bohemian Girl'.
"The conditions under which Mr. Charles Turner and Miss Annis Montague now appear before the Melbourne public are altogether in their favour, and it may be at once said that their success was not only complete, but brilliant." (Argus)
Theatre Royal
The pantomime finally finished on February 3rd.
On March 4th Grattan Riggs appeared in 'The Mysteries of New York'.
"The plot is incoherent, the situations are extravagantly improbable, and often without motive, and there is but one naturally drawn character in the play - that of the Irish coachman." (Argus)
The play only ran a week with the season finishing on Saturday March 11th.
On Monday 13th there was a special engagement and a first appearance of Mrs Walter Hill. She opened in 'Lancashire Lass'. On the 17th (St Patrick's Day) there was a single performance of 'Donnybrook Fair' and on March 18th 'Comedy of Errors'.
"The twin brothers Antipholus were represented by Mr. W.J. Holloway and Mr. Chas. Holloway, whose similarity in face, figure, and voice is so remarkable that the audience often could not determine whether it was the twin of Ephesus or of Syracuse that was on the stage." (Argus)
The short season came to an end on the 24th.
On Saturday 25th George Rignold made his first stage appearance since his return from England. His opening production was 'Youth', by Paul Merritt and Augustus Harris.
"Great care has been taken with the setting, and the large stage of the Theatre Royal is well adapted for these full-length effects, which have no front scenes to mar their completeness." (Argus)
Princess Theatre
'The Professor' proved so successful it ran all March.
Opera House
On Monday the 13th of March the Australian Juvenile Opera Bouffe Company of eighty young performers opened for a very short season of 'H.M.S. Pinafore'. Also on the programme was the pantomine ballet 'The Sailor's Dream'.
On the 25th of March a comedy season commenced featuring Wybert Reeve and his company. The opening production was a Melbourne first. This was 'The Money Spinner', by Arthur Pinero, featuring Blanche Stammers (Mrs Arthur Garner) making her first appearance on stage since her return from Europe.
"Great care has been taken with the setting, and the large stage of the Theatre Royal is well adapted for these full-length effects, which have no front scenes to mar their completeness." (Argus)
Bijou
The Montague Turner's production of the popular 'Bohemian Girl' finished on April 3rd. 'Lucia di Lammermoor' opened on Tuesday the 4th. This was followed later in the week by 'Maritana'.
"In giving us a new portraiture of an old well-known dramatic part, Miss Montague has fully sustained the high favour which has been already accorded to her Bohemian Girl and Bride of Lammermoor. Amongst the younger members of the audience her Maritana is looked upon, with good reason, as embodying all the characteristic beauties of the part, and is accepted as a standard of comparison which is likely to last for a long time" (Argus)
Later in the month saw a return of 'Lucia di Lammermoor' and a new production of 'Il Trovatore'.
Theatre Royal
'Youth' remained on stage all month playing to packed houses. Newspaper ads referred to the magnificent scenery, the glorious furniture and the grand massing of two hundred soldiers.
Princess Theatre
The last night of 'The Professor' was on Friday April 7th. On Saturday the 8th the comedy 'Jeames', by F.C. Burnand, was mounted. Along with Frederick Marshall this featured Sterling Whyte and Ethel Adelle.
"Mr. Marshall's presentation of the varied phases in the life of Jeames was another indication of that gentleman's versatility. Miss Ethel Adello, who was seen for the first time on this stage, was fortunate in securing favourable regard for her acting in the part of Lady Angelina." (Argus)
The final week of the season consisted of repeats of some of the more popular productions. The long season finally concluded on Friday April 21st.
The theatre remained closed the following week.
Opera House
'The Money Spinner' finished on Friday 7th April. On the 8th there was the first Melbourne production of 'The Colonel', by F.C. Burnand.
"The comedy is so cleverly written, and the dialogue is so pointed and smart, that it cannot fail to gain very considerable popularity. The first representation was accorded a hearty reception on Saturday night, and it was well deserved, for the play was exceedingly well acted throughout." (Argus)
The play continued through the rest of the month.
Bijou
The Montague-Turner Opera Company season continued with 'Faust' opening on the 1st. A week later there were two performances of 'The Rose of Castile', followed by two performances of 'Il Trovatore'. Then single performances of 'Lucia di Lammermoor' and 'The Rose of Castile'. This was followed by 'Martha' on Monday 15th.
"It is expected of Miss Montague from what we know of her that all she undertakes to do will be well done. In her performance of the dual rôle of Lady Harriet and Martha she fully justifies all the good opions which have been formed about her. She dressed well in either character, and in her manner she reasonably and very pleasantly differentiated both. That she could sing the ornate music of the part we know from her past achievements in works of heavier and more exacting kind." (Argus)
'Mignon' played later in the month.
Opera House
On Saturday May 6th 'Money', by Lord Lytton, opened and ran for one week.
"It is scarcely necessary to say that Mr. Wybert Reeve did ample justice to the popular part of Graves. His countenance did not denote the almost too intense melancholy which some actors of the part think desirable, and, for that reason, he seems more natural." (Argus)
On Saturday 13th 'London Assurance', by Dion Biocucicault, was mounted. This featured the American actor Daniel H. Harkins.
"In two or three instances there had been an unfortunate assignment of parts, and the company generally did not exhibit that interest in the performance which has so far characterised them during the season. The low spirits of some of those on the stage seemed to have a depressing effect on the audience." (Argus)
This was the last week of the Wybert Reeve comedy season.
The theatre remained dark the rest of the month.
Princess Theatre
On April 29th the talented Jennie Lee made her first appearance in Australia. She opened with 'Jo' which was an adaptation by J.P. Burnett of the Charles Dickens novel 'Bleak House'. Jennie had already played this work over 3,000 times overseas and Australian audiences were eager to see this talented actress. A strong company was formed for her. These included H.R. Harwood, Maggie Knight, Eloise Juno and William Hoskins.
"It is evident that Miss Lee has studied this character from the life. When she is on the stage the illusion is complete. It is difficult to believe that she has ever been anything else than the ragged London street boy." (Argus)
'Jo' ran all May.
| Jennie Lee (1848?-1930) was born in London. After her father's death she entered the dramatic profession and first appeared on the stage at the Lyceum Theatre in 1870. In San Francisco she first appeared in 'Jo' which became her most famous role. This play ran for over a year in London. She was also popular in pantomime and toured throughout the United Kingdom, America, Australia, Africa, India and China. Her stage career continued into the 20th century. |
Theatre Royal
The last performance of 'Youth' was on Friday May 5th.
Alfred Dampier and company took over the theatre on Saturday May 6th with 'Russia As It Is'. This was founded on the Jules Verne story 'The Courier of the Czar'.
"Mr. Dampier, who played Michael Strogoff, experienced a very hearty reception on making his appearance on the stage after a long absence from Melbourne. He acted the part with manly dignity, and quite realized the idea of one dominated by a set purpose which no obstacle could battle." (Argus)
The play ran a week. Next was the Conquest drama 'The Green Lanes of England' opening on Saturday May 13th. This was the first Melbourne performance of this work.
"Mr. Dampier played the part of Gentleman George. The character is well suited to Mr. Dampier's abilities, and he made a very good impression in it." (Argus)
The company played the rest of the month.
Theatre Royal
On June 3rd there commenced a short engagement by the actress Louise Pomery. The first work was 'Led Astray', by Dion Bouccault.
"Miss Pomeroy, when she came onto the stage on Saturday night, received a genuine ovation from the very large audience present. Certianly she never showed more elegance, grace, intelligence and attention to her duty than she did in this trying part which she chose to make her re-appearance in." (Argus)
This was followed the following week by 'The Lady of Lyons' and a few days later 'Leah the forsaken'. Friday June 16th was the last night of the short season.
On Saturday June 17th Alfred Dampier and company returned for a short season. The production was 'Black Flag' by George Conquest and Pettitt.
"It has been put upon the stage of the Theatre Royal with considerable care and it was entirely successful in pleasing the large audience assembled on Saturday night. The part of the Vagabond, in which Mr. Alfred Dampier appeared, is well suited to him. He gained the sympathies of the audience from the first, and he played it in a vigorous manly way, which secured lasting interest in the varying fortunes of the character." (Argus)
The play continued until the 28th. On the 29th there was a farewell benefit for John Hennings who was retiring after sixteen years managing the Theatre Royal. J. C. Williamson appeared in 'Kenny' and Alfred Dampier appeared in 'The Green Lanes of England'. On Friday the 30th another benefit this time consisting of 'Black Flag' (with Alfred Dampier) and 'Checkmate'.
Bijou
The end of the opera season was on Saturday the 3rd. During the season fifty nine performances had been given. This included thirteen of 'Maritana', 'Bohemian Girl' (9), 'Lucia' (6), 'Faust' (6), Il Trovatore (5), 'The Rose of Castile (4) 'Martha' (3) and several single performances and benefits. The company then headed for Sandhurst.
The English actor J. Dewthurst opened the following week for a short season. First was 'Cardinal Richeli' which ran until Friday 16th. On Saturday June 17th there was a double bill consisting of 'The Merchant of Venice' and 'Katherine and Petruchio' with J. Dewthurst as Shylock and Petruchio.
"Mrs G.B.W. Lewis was an admirable Portia, and in the court scene was especially impressive. Her delivery of the passage on the quality of mercy was a good elocutionary effort." (Argus)
Later the following week saw productions of 'Hamlet' and then 'Much Ado About Nothing'. On Monday the 26th the domestic drama 'The Marriner's Compass' was mounted.
"The piece has been hurriedly put upon the stage, and the mechanical appliances did not work as satisfactory as could have been desired." (Argus)
The piece played a few performances and then was withdrawn.
The theatre then closed for extensive refurbishments.
Opera House
The theatre was closed all month and only opened for the odd benefit and the occasional production.
Princess Theatre
'Jo' finally finished on Friday 2nd of June. On Saturday the 3rd 'The Grasshopper' opened. This was an adaptation by J.P. Burnett of Meilhac and Halevy's French success 'La Cigale'. This was the first production in Australia.
"Miss Lee played with an unflagging vivacity and brightness of manner which always sustained the attention of the audience while she was on the stage." (Argus)
This played throughout the whole month.
Opera House
Making her first appearance in Australia Emelie Melville and her company appeared for a season of comic opera. They opened on Saturday July 8th with Offenbach's 'La Pericole'. This featured Thomas Caselli making his first appearance in Australia. 'Girofle-Giofle' by Lecocq opened on Wednesday the 19th. This played the rest of the month.
Princess Theatre
The very successful 'The Grasshopper', with Jennie Lee and J.P. Burnett, continued to full houses. This production finally concluded after 42 performances on July 21st. On Saturday 22nd 'Where's the Cat' by James Albery was performed for the first time in Australia. The cast included Jennie Lee, J.P. Burnett, Annie Mayor and H.E. Harwood.
"The story of Where's the Cat does not pretend to contain anything more than verbal froth, and serious criticism would be out of place in noticing the production. As a rule, these productions are harmless if they are not entertaining to those who look for intellectual diversion on the stage." (Age)
[Editor's note: Annie Mayor had a short career on the stage. She made her debut in 1878 and during this present season she suffered what the papers called 'congestion of the brain'.]
The theatre then closed for extensive refurbishments.
Theatre Royal
The theatre was reopened on July 1st for the first time under the management of the new leesees, Williamson, Garner and Musgrove. Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Patience' received its first Melbourne performance. The cast included Howard Vernon, Signor Riccardi, Signor Verdi, Alice Rees and Fanny Liddiard.
"Lavishly mounted with exquisite scenery by Messrs Gordon and Hennings, and performed by a most efficient company, Patience should enjoy a run of almost unexampled duration, as in addition to the elaborate style of its production it contains within itself every essential of popularity. Miss Alice Rees sustains the title role, making the character as natural as the drolleries of the conception admit of, and giving to it an amount of prominence without any of the exaggeration that could easily be introduced, and indeed for which almost tempting opportunities are constantly occurring. Miss Navaro's lady Jane is excellent throughout, and her wonderful creation in the matter of the aesthetic costume claims special recognition. Her violoncello scene in the forest glade was genuinely funny and produced roars of laughter." (Age)
| Fanny Liddiard (1865-1931) was an Australian actress who made her first stage appearance as Kate in 'The Pirates of Penzance' for J. C. Williamson in 1881. She became a leading actress during the 1880s. In the early 1890s she travelled to America, joining the Tivoli Opera Company in San Francisco. She returned in 1897 but a year later she left for England where she married a McLeod settling in Edinburgh for a short period. In 1908 she returned brieftly to Australia where she organised a juvenile company to tour India joining up with her brother Tom who had theatrical interests there. She spent the final years of her life living in India. |
Opera House
On Saturday August 5th 'Les Cloches de Corneville', by Planchette, opened.
"Miss Melville as Serpolette played her part with ladylike grace that is always such a pleasing feature of her acting, though in so doing the individuality of the actress rather than the special characteristics of the rôle were as a consequence preeminent." (Age)
The final appearance by the Emelie Melville company was on August 18th. For the rest of the month the theatre remained dark except for the occasional lecturer.
Princess Theatre
On Saturday the 5th 'The Ticket-of-Leave Man', by Tom Taylor, opened. Jennie Lee took the role of Sam Willoughby for the first time.
"There is no doubt that from one point of view Miss Lee's rendering of the part is exceptionally clever, being very real and life-like. To speak plainly, it would have been better if Miss Lee had not appeared in the part; for the best that can be said of it is that it was simply a variety hall entertainment, and, as such, clever." (Age)
Audiences started to dwindle so on Tuesday the 15th Jennie Lee's ever popular 'Jo' was staged as a stop gape for a few performances. On Saturday the 19th the hit 'The Grasshopper' returned for the final week of the season which concluded on Thursday the 24th with a benefit for the artist.
Saturday 26th saw the first production in Australia of the English and American successful nautical and operatic extravaganza 'Billie Taylor', by Stephens and Solomon. This was produced by a special arrangement with Richard D'Oyly Carte in London. The cast included Nellie Stewart, Ida Osborne, Howard Vernon and Edwin Kelly. New costumes had been especially manufactured in London and imported just for this production. Reviews on the work were not kind.
The Age said that 'Billie Taylor' "can only be described as the result of a fertile attempt to copy in the most bare-faced manner Messrs. Gilbert and Sullivan's unique operatic compositions. The material with which libretto and score have been constructed is quite devoid of anything which suggests originality."
Theatre Royal
'Patience' finished its successful run on Friday August 11th.
on the 12th 'The Pirates of Penzance' saw it's first revival since its original first production. The cast included Howard Vernon, H.T. Harrison, John F. Forde, Fanny Liddiard and Andrea Navarro. Reviews were not that positive.
"Miss Navarro apparently had no command of voice, though she played her part with intelligence. Mr Forde's Sergeant Murphy was a good effort at carrying out Mr. Williamson's Melbourne creation of that character, and as such deserves some praise. Mr. Harrison, as Frederick, was probably permitted to sustain that important rôle from the fact that he possesses a voice of tenor quality. In other respects it is difficult to see why he should be brought into any prominence, seeing that his acting capacity is almost nil, whilst vocally his efforts betray the fact that as a singer he has also nearly everything to learn." (Age)
The season finished on Friday the 18th.
On Saturday the 19th saw the inauguration of a new dramatic season featuring Louise Pomeroy and her company. They opened with 'Hamlet' with Louise in the title role. There were single performances of 'Romeo and Juliet' on the 24th and 'East Lynne' on the 25th.
On Saturday August 26th W.E. Sheriden appeared for the first time in Melbourne. He opened in a revival of the historical drama 'Louis XI'.
"Mr. Sheridan properly interprets the character from the drama, and in doing so he sets himself a task very difficult to complete his performance, taken throughout, cannot be regarded otherwise than extremely clever." (Age)
Bijou
The Bijou reopened its doors again on August 5th. According to the papers it had been extremely renovated, decorated, ornamented, upholstered and carpeted, from floor to ceiling'. Frederick Marshall and his comedy company presented, for the first time in Melbourne, the comedy 'Mother-in-law' by G.R. Sims.
"MrS M. Turtle was represented by Miss Melville, who showed herself to be a thoroughly capable actress. She was imposing, with the air of one accustomed to rule, and towered above her husband like a lighthouse."
On Saturday the 19th 'Forgiven' by James Albery was performed for the first time in Melbourne.
"The work is deficient in interest, whilst the dialogue and plot are, for the most part, altogether pointless." (Age)
The last night of this production was on Friday September 1st.
Opera House
On Saturday September 2nd saw the first production in Australia by the recently arrived Dunning, Wallace and Co's London Comic Opera Company. 'Boccaccio', by Suppe, was the opening work. The English translation was by R. Reece and H.B. Farnie.
"'Boccaccio' attracted an audience which filled the house in every part, and which expressed by hearty applause, by means of encores and by calling all the principals before the curtain at the time of the first and second acts, its high approval of the quality of the work and the manner in which it was presented...Amongst the new comers is Mr. T.B. Appleby, who played the part of Lambertuccio, and exhibited such large andgenial powers as a low comedian as made him at once a pronounced favourite with the whole house...best of all, while everything is so well cared for on the stage, the excellent conductor, Mr. C. Van Ghele, has under him the most perfect orchestra now to be found in Melbourne. This latter is in itself an attraction of the highest musical value."
(Argus)
Among the newcomers was a recent arrival from London, the young tenor Walter H. Woodfield.
Walter Woodfield "has much to recommend him to prompt and favourable acceptance. His bearing is easy on the stage, and he delivers the words of his part distinctly and with the right accent and fair emphasis. He sings inteligently, and with good feeling, and his musical phrasing is artistic, and therefore quite satisfactory to hear." (Argus)
[Editor's note: W.H. Woodfield was born in Norfolk, England, in May 1851. After the financial crisis of 1893-4 he moved to Perth and entered into the Government service. He died there, after a long illness, in December 1899]
Bijou
Frederick Marshall and his comedy company continued their season. On Saturday September 2nd saw produced the latest American success 'Needles and Pins' by Augustin Daly. This was followed on Saturday 16th by a return of 'Jeames'
"The hearty laughter and applause which followed the performance of this serio-comic production throughout showed that it has taken a firm hold on the regard of the public. Mr. Marshall's Jeames is one of his most natural impersonations." (Argus)
On the 23rd 'The Upper Crust', by Henry Bryon, was presented.
"Mr. Marshall, as Doublechick, presents to the audience a cheerful, good natured , but uncultivated old man, blunderingly imitating the manners of the aristocrats whose society he courts. It is needless to say that Mr. Marshall makes the most of such a congenial part, and that every curt and awkward expression, and every ungainly gesture, is received with roars of laughter." (Argus)
Theatre Royal
W.E. Sheridan continued his season with 'King Lear' on September 2nd.
"There is no doubt that, clever as his Louis XI undoubtedly was, his effort as King Lear is greatly superior." (Age)
The Argus said that Sheridan "is an actor of great merit, worthy to rank with, if not above, the best exponents of the character who have visited Australia."
'Lear' played for two weeks followed on Saturday 16th by 'A New Way to Pay Old Debts' by Philip Massinger (1583-1640).
"It depicts the manners, speech and life of the past, while, in common with the works of Shakespeare, it contains much of the popular sentiment and practical wisdom of the present." (Age)
On the following Tuesday and Wednesday 'Richelieu', by Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873), was performed. [Editor's note: 'Richelieu' gave the world that memorable phrase "pursuit of the almighty dollar".] This was followed by two performances of 'Otello' and then two performances of 'Richard III'.
Reviewing Sheridan in the title role of Richard III the Argus said "Mr. Sheridan's performance of this character is not the melodramatic exaggeration which is still common on the stage, though there is enough of fire, vigour, and impulse in the later scenes to save even the admirers of rant from any feeling of disappointment. Mr Sheridan does not lay himself out to play at the audience. He presents the character as a well studied effort, which has some bold and varied touches, with plenty of animation and vigour, though without the brilliancy, the adroitness, and the refinement of subtlety with which we have seen it invested"
On Tuesday 26th 'The Willow Case' was performed. This ran for three nights. There was a benefit for W.E. Sheridan on Friday the 29th.
Princess Theatre
'Billie Taylor' finished its season on Friday the 15th. The following evening Offenbach's 'La Fille du Tambour Major' was produced. The guns, swords and other arms had been especially manufactured in London for this production. The operetta played through until Septmeber 27th. On the Thursday and Friday 'Patience' made a reappearance to end the season.
Reviewing Nellie Stewart in the title role the Argus said "Her appearance ia charming, bat her manner in the first song, "I cannot tell what this love may be," is too confidential with the audience. Her voice throughout the whole of the singing part is light and pleasing, and her intonation is good; but her general execution as a vocalist may be improved under proper guidance to the great gain of all that she does in the direction oí breadth of treatment and volume of tone."
Opera House
The popular 'Boccaccio' continued to full houses throughout the month.
"Miss Mitchell, as Isabella, became a quick favorite with the audience, to whom she plays cleverly, not, however, by any means obtrusively. Her style of acting has a quiet chic about it that admirably suited the rôle allotted to her." (Age)
Bijou
The final night of 'Upper Crust' was on Friday 13th. On Saturday 14th 'Crutch and Toothpick', by G.R. Sims, was mounted. The Frederick Marshall season drew to a sudden close on the 20th. Frederick Marshall had become seriously ill and doctors had ordered him to immediately leave the country. [Editor's note: Marshall recovered in England and returned to Australia in March 1884 but his health deteriorated and he was sent back to England again twelve months later. He finally passed away in September 1886. Marshall arrived in Australia in 1879 and in a short time became a much admired actor.]
On Saturday 21st the Alfred Dampier company continued their season of 'No Mercy' at this theatre. This played for eight performances and was then replaced by Dampier's London success 'The Green Lanes of England'.
Theatre Royal
The Sheridan company mounted the drama 'The Courier of Lyons and the Lyons Mail' on September 30th.
"The skill of Mr. Sheridan in doubling the parts was conspicuous to everyone. (He) entirely succeeded in severing the two characters and making them stand out with their own individualities." (Age)
The final week of the Sheridan season started on Saturday 7th. There were revivals of several of the companies more popular works.
On October 14th Alfred Dampier and company returned to the theatre for six performances only of the Australian drama 'No Mercy'. This play was loosely based on 'La Morte Civille' by Pacio Giacometal.
"It would be difficult to imagine how a more unreal or unnatural story could be concocted. It sets at defiance all the first principles of fiction writing by ignoring the rules of probability, unity of thought and reasonable modes of action." (Age)
"The play abounds in strong emotional scenes, naturally evolved, and expressed by simple unpremeditated language." (Argus)
The company then moved to the Bijou Theatre.
On Saturday October 21st George Rignold and his dramatic company reproduced the London success 'Youth'.
"The drama had a long run in Sydney, and the performance was marked by completeness which was to be expected under the circumstances. Miss Navarro is especially well suited to the part of the young French woman, as she is able to give the foreign accent with excitement." (Argus)
"Naturally as French is Miss Navaro's native tongue, she gave to the part all the colouring required to make clear the illusion of a French-woman speaking English with a distinctively French manner. But she did much more than this, she played the character to perfect life." (Australasian)
Princess Theatre
On Saturday 30th September saw the first appearance at this theatre of the American comedian Joe B. Polk (1861? - 1902), his wife, Julia, and their dramatic company. First up was the American comedy 'The Strategist'.
Critics summed up the performers "Mr. Polk is spoken of as versatile and clever, especially in the quick change of business, whilst Mrs Polk has a flexible and highly cultivated voice, which she uses in the rendition of various songs, quite irrelevant, however, to the piece."
Opera House
After many weeks the last nights of 'Boccaccio' were announced. The final performance was on Friday November 17th. The operetta had clocked up sixty six performances. On Saturday the 18th the military comic opera 'The King's Dragoons' was mounted. The music was by John Crook and the libretto by John Wilson Jones.
"Both plot and libretto are very tame. Mr. Appleby does all that is possible with his character of a yokel; and although his vocal capacity is within narrow limits, his clever delivery and distinct utterance made his assumption of a vocal rôle more than tolerable." (Age)
"The musical composer, Mr. John Crook, is to be congratulated upon his first appearance here. His merits are that he discovers a good turn for tune and has a rich fancy and a free hand in using the resources of the orchestra. Of the artists who gave effect to this representation we need not say very much, because their individual qualities are by this time very well known." (Argus)
Bijou
The Alfred Dampier season continued at this theatre. On Saturday November 11th 'Jan Varo's Oath' by G.R. Sims was performed.
"Common in plot and stereotyped in characters." (Australasian)
A week later 'The Royal Pardon', by Conquest and Pettitt, was produced.
This production was mounted "in a tolerably praiseworthy manner, and its performance was favorably received by the audience." (Age)
On Saturday 25th 'The Black Flag' was performed for one week. The last night of the Dampier season was on Friday December 1st.
Theatre Royal
The George Rignold season continued with the first Melbourne production of 'The Lights of London' on Saturday Nov 11th. This was a drama by G.R. Sims.
"It was placed upon the stage with a completeness of design and lavishness of display to which apparently the successes of the present day type of sensational drama are entirely due." (Age)
The play finished on Thursday the 21st with a benefit on Friday the 22nd for the widows and orphans of a recent mining catastrophe at Creswick.
The theatre remained dark until Christmas.
Princess Theatre
The Polk season continued. On Saturday November 4th the comedy 'Sam'l of Posen', by George H. Jessop, was first performed. [Editor's note: 'Sam'l of Posen' had it's first performance in New York in 1881] This was the first production in Australia.
"There is considerable merit in the piece, and, although wanting in plot, it is full of very witty observations and crisp dialogue." (Age)
The last night of 'Sam'l of Posen' was on Friday November 17th. On Saturday the 18th saw another comedy-drama from the pen of G. H. Jessop. This was the first performance of 'The American'.
"In some respects not only very amusing but really clever. Mr. Polk, moreover, has a part to play which is exactly suitable to him, and fits him like a glove." (Age)
The work played into December.
Opera House
'The King's Dragoons' continued into December. On the 9th there was a revival of 'Boccaccio' by, so called, special request. This played until Christmas.
The Christmas production, opening on Boxing night, was the operetta 'Manola' by Lecocq. This was the first production in Australia. The cast featured John Wallace, T.B. Appleby, Annette Ivanova and Kate Chard.
Bijou
The Christmas opera season saw a return of the Montague-Turner Grand English Opera Company. They opened on December 2nd with 'Mignon'.
"As Mignon Miss Montague labors under disadvantages which cannot but detract from the pleasure which is afforded by her charming vocalization. Mr. Turner's Wilhelm was fully acceptable as when he was seen and heard in the same rôle. It is by no means his best part, but he does his work in a manly and thorough style." (Age)
[Editor's note: the entire company had recently been involved in a terrible railroad accident while on tour in mid November. Although no lives were lost everyone seemed to suffer various injuries in some form or other.]
On Thursday the 7th 'Maritana' played. This was followed by 'Faust' (13th), 'The Bohemian Girl' (15th), 'Il Trovatore' (19th) and 'Lily of Killarney' (21st). Over the Christmas period there were single performances of the operas performed throughout the season.
Princess Theatre
On December 9th the emotional drama 'The Old Love and the New', by Bronson Howard, opened.
"Mrs. Polk, who appeared as Florence St
Vincent Brovvn, the considerate, but gay, wife
of an octogenarian, invested her part with an
attractive degree of life and animation, notwithstanding that she was sufTenng from
the effects of an accidental fall, which compelled her to carry one arm in a sling." (Argus)
At one performance 200 Boudoir Portraits of Mrs Polk were presented to the ladies in the dress circle. The season finished on Saturday the 16th.
The Royal Opera Company opened 'La Mascotte', by Audran, on boxing night. This was the first time Melbourne audiences had seen this work. The cast included W.H. Woodfield, Edwin Kelly, Nellie Stewart and a return of Maggie Moore. Costumes had been especially imported from London.
"The appearance of Miss Maggie Moore on the stage was the signal for a loud outburst of applause, showing that during her absence she had lost none of her popularity with the Melbourne public." (Argus)
Theatre Royal
Opening on boxing night was the first Christmas pantomime to be presented by J. C. Williamson. This year it was 'Jack and the Beanstalk and See-Saw Margery Daw; or; Harlequin Man in the Moon, the Love Birds of Fairyland, and the Giant of Tel-El-Keber'.
"The principal part is assigned to Miss Maggie Oliver, whose opportunities, however, are limited; but what there is for her to do she does with a great deal of vivacity and an easy and pleasing manner." (Argus)
Also in the cast were Alice Deorwyn as Margery Daw and Bland Holt as Jack's Mother.
"The feature of the performance is the
highly effective way in which the piece is put
upon the stage. It is also well acted. Mr.
Rignold, as the ill-used hero, makes the moat
of his opportunities. He always acted
eith earnestness, and often with con-
siderable emotional power." (Argus)
"Mr Polk plays the part of the German
Jew, with his peculiar accent, very naturally.
The performance is careful and finished, and
is marked by a good deal of dry humour, in
which there is no coarseness." (Argus)
"The author has presented a singularly amiable and disinterested type of American, and there is a great deal of humour in the part, largely dependent, however, on the use of slangy expressions." (Argus)
The Argus said "Miss Annie Montagne was received with long continued and most earnest applause as soon as she appeared on the scene, and this was renewed again and again throughout the evening as she made each point in a performance which was from beginning to end a perfectly intelligent and highly-finished study."

Now GraphQL is not anymore that new kid on a block it would be nice if we can implement a service with a GraphQL interface. Spring Boot is one of the well known frameworks to build your micro services in Java. Time to assess how easy, or hard it will be to implement a GraphQL service. In this post we will not explain how GraphQL works. We focus on a simple Java Spring Boot micro services with a JPA layer. In the GraphQL language we cover the tree major concepts, a query, a mutation and a subscription.
GraphQL is API is based on three main concepts. Query the backend for data using a graph based query. The query is in a JSON like style and the response is valid JSON. A major difference with REST is that wit a query you can specify excatly what you expect or want from the backend. Mutation are the way to change data in the system based on flat input object. In this example we use mutation to add new information. Finally we have subscription to subscribe for changes and get notified once something is changed via a web socket.
For implementing a GraphQL service you have two choices. Either schema first, or code first. So similar concepts as we used with SOA XML services. When starting with code you have to write more plumbing code, but you have more freedom. And on the other side starting of the schema reduce all the plumbing code and gives a faster start.
In this blog we first create a simple JPA enabled Spring Boot service. Then we add step-by-step GraphQL features to the service. We start from the schema and show which small additions you have to do to our application. Starting from a schema will not result in generated coded, you still have to write the matching code yourself. For the Java implementation we will use the libraries from graphql-java-kickstart.
For simplicity we use in this blog a simple domain model. Consisting of two classes. A person and notes, a person can have multiple notes. And a note always has one author, a person.
First we create a simple Spring JPA services, to store the Notes and the Authors of type Person. The implementation will be straightforward. We create an entity class for Person and Note. Fore readability the imports and other plumbing is omitted. See GitHub for a complete implementation.
@Entity
public class Person {
@Id @GeneratedValue
private final Long id = null;
@Column(unique = true)
private String name;
private String email;
}
@Entity
public class Note {
@Id @GeneratedValue
private final Long id = null;
private String note;
private ZonedDateTime createdOn;
@ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.EAGER)
private Person author;
}
Next we define two spring JPA repositories to store the entities above in our database.
@Repository
public interface PersonRepository extends CrudRepository<Person, Long> {
List<Person> findAll();
}
@Repository
public interface NoteRepository extends CrudRepository<Note, Long> {
List<Note> findAll();
}
Finally, we define the services interface which we will use to implement the GraphQL queries,
@Service
public interface NotesService {
public Note save(Note note);
public Optional<Note> findById(Long id);
public List<Note> findAll();
}
So that is all to create a simple service with basic JPA (persistence) capacity. Time to focus on adding GraphQL to our service.
As base library we use graphql-java-tools
this library requires a GraphQL schema to implement GrahpQL. The first step is to define a schema for our queries. The schema defines our GraphQL root, for now only the query. Next the queries we will implement and the types we use. We define two queries. The first one to look op a note and the second one to find all notes based on a filter. Next, we define the types. As you can see a Note has a relation to a Person object. By querying for a note we can get immediately the authors name for example.
schema {
query: Query,
}
type Query {
note(id: Long!): Note
notes: [Note]
}
# Object to represent a note
type Note {
id: ID!
note: String
createdOn : String
author: Person
}
# Object to represent a note
type Person {
id: ID!
name: String
email: String
}
We have now defined a first version of a GraphQL schema. The second step is to connect the schema to the Note Service. GraphQL java tools expects for each query, a resolver function. Therefore, we need to implement GraphQLQueryResolver
from graphql-tools.
@Component
public class Query implements GraphQLQueryResolver {
private NotesService notesService;
public Query(NotesService notesService) {
this.notesService = notesService;
}
public Optional<Note> note(final Long id) {
return notesService.findById(id);
}
public List<Note> notes() {
return notesService.findAll();
}
}
This is all, we have to do to be able to handle the queries as specified in the schema. We can now start the spring boot application and open http://locahost:8080/graphiql and query form some. Graphiql is a simple IDE to execute GraphQL queries. A much richer tool to play with your queries is GraphQL Playground. Actually no fun yet, we can only execute queries without getting any result. We simply have an empty system. We need a way to add notes to the system. In GraphQL you mutate data via a mutation. In the next step we add a mutation to the schema and update the code for executing the mutation.
In the schema we add the mutation to the root and add a mutation to add a note to the Mutation
type. Quite similar to defining the query above. For the input we define an input object for both Note and Person.
schema {
...
mutation: Mutation
}
type Mutation {
addNote(note: InputNote!, author: InputPerson!): Note
}
# Input type for the author of the note
input InputPerson {
name: String!
email: String
}
# Input type for a new Note
input InputNote {
note: String!
}
Similar to implementing the query we have to implement an interface and declare methods for the mutation. Mutations have to be implemented in a class implementing the interface GraphQLMutationResolver. In this implementation we defined for the input objects converters to convert the GraphQL input object to domain objects that can be consumed by the service.
@Component
public class Mutation implements GraphQLMutationResolver {
public Note addNote(final InputNote note, final InputPerson author) {
return notesService.save(InputNote.convert(note, author));
}
}
Let’s test the service. Build and start the service /gradlew clean bootRun
and open http://localhost:8080/graphiql.
mutation {
addNote(note: {note: "Hello World"},
author: {name: "John Doe", email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>{
id
}
}
And query for all available notes. This should result only in the note above.
query {
notes {
id
createdOn
note
author {
name
}
}
}
Add some more notes and experiment with the query. All standard features will work such as aliases, fragement and variables.
Another cool feature is the subscriptions. With a subscription you can subscribe to updates via a websocket. The same philosophy is followed for the subscription. You will gat your data in same structure as specified in the subscription call.
To add subscription to our Java implements, we update the schema and add code to handle updates. To add a subscription for new notes we update the GraphQL schema first. Again update schema root and add the subscription, define the available subscriptions and add the required types.
schema {
...
subscription : Subscription
}
type Subscription {
# Subscribe to all new comments
notes: NoteUpdate!
}
type NoteUpdate {
# The note text
note : String
# The name of the author
authorName : String
# Time when the note was received
createdOn : String
}
And once again we have to implement a resolver, this time we implement the GraphQLSubscriptionResolver
.
@Component
class Subscription implements GraphQLSubscriptionResolver {
private CommentPublisher commentPublisher;
Subscription(CommentPublisher commentPublisher) {
this.commentPublisher = commentPublisher;
}
Publisher<NoteUpdate> notes() {
return commentPublisher.getPublisher();
}
}
public Note save(Note note) {
...
notePublisher.publish(savedNoed);
...
}
The notePublisher
is responsible to update messages via a WebScoket so the subscribers get the update. For the implementation check out the GitHub repo. Time to test the subscription. An easy way to test is topen the GraphiQL editor on two screens. Invoke in the first one the subscription and in the second one add a note. You will see you get an update of the new note on the first screen.
subscription {
notes {
note
authorName
}
}
Another nice feature provided by graphql-spring-boot is the test utils. Testing your GraphQL queries becomes really simple. The library provide a GraphQLTestTemplate
which makes it easy to invoke the GraphQL endpoint by with a query. The result is the JSON object. Let’s have a quick look on some code. First define the query in queries/find-notes.graphql
.
query FindNotes {
notes {
id
note
createdOn
author {
name
}
}
}
Now create a test.
@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest(webEnvironment = SpringBootTest.WebEnvironment.RANDOM_PORT)
public class GraphQLNoteTest extends GraphQLBaseTest {
@Autowired
private GraphQLTestTemplate graphQLTestTemplate;
@Test
public void findNotes() throws IOException {
GraphQLResponse findResponse = graphQLTestTemplate.perform("queries/find-notes.graphql", null);
assertTrue(findResponse.isOk());
// asserts to check the content
}
}
That is all, of course you should add some assert to check the content as well. For more details check out the GitHub repo of this blog.
The example above shows how you can enable your Spring Boot service with a GraphQL API. Adding a GraphQL layer to your existing (simple) service is fairly easy with the tools. But GraphQL will become really powerful when you combine multiple (REST) API in one GraphQL endpoint to create a fluent and understandable API.
If a java based approach is in that case the best way to go, I don’t know yet. In that case it could be interesting to dive into Rejoiner.


SHOW will display the current setting of run-time parameters. These variables can be set using the SET statement, by editing the postgresql.conf configuration file, through the PGOPTIONS environmental variable (when using libpq or a libpq-based application), or through command-line flags when starting the postgres server. See Chapter 18 for details.

Real Estate Development Matrix
A Multi-Disciplinary Project
The real estate development process is organized around a 56-cell, stage-task matrix, which describes the entire real estate development process in seven stages from the land banking stage to the redevelopment stage. In each stage, there are eight categories of tasks that need to be addressed. The main thesis of this interdisciplinary development model is that there are discrete stages in the process, and in each stage the real estate developer must (1) complete different tasks using specialized skills and thereby accepting certain risks and (2) employ various capital structures with different risk-return characteristics to create or "capture" the value increase in that stage. The seven stages in the model are: land banking, land packaging, land development, building development, building operation, building renovation, and site redevelopment. Each stage in the process begins with the acquisition tasks and ends with the disposition tasks. Each stage must also address, to some extent, the following categories of tasks (many of which are done simultaneously): financing, market research, approvals, environmental, improvement construction, and transportation and accessibility concerns. As with all real world applications of conceptual models, the lines separating the stages and the categories are fuzzy.
The Development Matrix can be used as a descriptive, normative, or predictive model. As a pedagogical tool, the Development matrix can help the student understand the process, risks, and value creation in real estate development. For more information click a matrix cell below.

Our founders bet their lives on seven principles — The Seven Hills We Die On. Today we still follow the path to be authentic in teaching culturally current, biblical truth. By doing life together while never settling for less than excellence. And to reproduce leaders and grow people spiritually to expand God’s kingdom.
Explore our Seven HillsFed up with religiosity and confusing church rituals that were driving their friends away from God, they decided to start something new. So they pushed all their chips in, mortgaged their homes, and took a chance on some no-name, 30-year-old kid from Pittsburgh (Brian Tome) and guaranteed his salary for one year. What followed was 25 years of God using this place to change the world. We’ve offended countless people along the way, but when you’re willing to die for what you believe in, you tend to ruffle feathers. We don’t play church. If you’re easily offended this probably isn’t for you.
That’s why despite8 years of protest, angry letters, City Council injunctions, lawyer fees,and vehement criticism in the community, we fought and opened a best-in-class, all-in-one service agency dedicated to ending generational poverty in Cincinnati. That’s the story of CityLink. That’s the story of dying on the hill of Biblical truth. If God says it, we do it.
Why did we spend millions of dollars creating a fully immersive Christmas experience called Awaited and then give away hundreds of thousands of tickets to it for free? Why did we reinvent the Christmas Special and push it out to over 8 million people online around the country? Why? Because we will do absolutely whatever it takes to reach people with the message of Jesus in a language they understand. Even if we go broke doing it.
What does it mean to do "anything short of sin" to reach people?

We don’t just write checks, we move into the neighborhood. In 2006 we opened the largest AIDS hospice in South Africa. That project ultimately failed, but we regrouped, chalked it up to learning, and kept working. We’ve been in the fight against sexual slavery and human trafficking in India and Nepal since 2007. And guess what, that battle wages on. Whether we’re winning or losing, we’re GOing, together. Interested in being used by God? Join us.
Why do people get upset when they see churches having nice things? Big TVs and gourmet coffee. (Do you have a large TV? Do you like good coffee?) We will never want your used furniture in our student ministry room. We will never accept your hand-me-down toys in our Kids’ Club. God wants our best so we give him our best. We budget for what we think He is calling us to and then we pray he’ll provide. He has. For 25 years. We’re committed to excellence. Sorry/not sorry if that bothers you.
The Crossroads coffee story,
WAY more than just free coffee on Sunday.
Lisa's Story
Lisa was floundering without a church community but traveled too much to make weekends work. A friend invited her to check out Crossroads and she has found a new level of connection. Read Lisa's incredible story.
 “People won’t watch a teaching on a big screen. That’s not church. Dumb idea.” Crossroads now has 10 vibrant growing sites in Ohio and KY and we’re just getting started. We’ll continue to reproduce what God is doing in this place as long as he’s doing it. (BTW, we tried to find an “F” word for “reproduction” but eventually gave up. DM us your ideas.)
The most important work God is doing is the work he’s doing in you. This place exists to help YOU connect with God. That’s a lifetime of learning and growing and it starts with a decision to commit and be baptized. We’ll do that any time in any place we can find water. From a frozen lake to a muck-filled farm pond. The Ohio River or a neighbor’s hot tub. If maturity and personal spiritual growth aren’t high on your list of goals, maybe try golf on Sunday instead. We’re about movement, period.

But my humans don't believe me.
My humans put some pictures beside me while I was exercising in my cardboard box...yes it's still going strong even if I always try to gnaw through the corners when I'm in it. Well, I wasn't too concerned. They keep trying to find new ways to entertain me. This time, however, they seemed to think that by choosing one of the pictures I would predict the winner of Thursday's football match between MFZ Ružomberok and Everton.
I've told you my dilemma before. The MFK Ruzomberok badge reminds me of Lancashire's red rose emblem. The colour red is eye-catching so naturally I stopped to look at that. And you'd think think I'd committed a heinous crime. My humans assume that I'm predicting that Ružomberok will win. Not at all. I have every faith in Koeman's boys. But I am an Evertonian and it doesn't always pay to expect too much. This time, I am expecting Everton to progress to the next round of the Europa League competition. Honest!
I can't wait for the match actually. It means that some of my humans will be back from another trip. The one who is staying behind had better look after me well...or I'll be telling tales!

Who Celtic and Rangers could face in the Europa League last 32
Things could still change but there are some potentially tasty draws for both teams as things stand.
by Gabriel McKayAfter a fantastic week for Scotland's two Europa League representatives, thoughts have already started to turn to the last 32 of the competition.
Celtic assured their place in the knockout rounds with a stirring win over Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico, and Rangers gave themselves a great chance of qualifying with their rousing 2-0 victory over Porto at Ibrox.
The results gave the Scottish coefficient a boost, with the Scottish Premiership now within striking distance of the Cypriot top flight in 15th.
Reaching the top 15 would give Scotland an extra Champions League place for the 2021-22 season, with the league runners-up entering at the first qualifying round and the Premiership winner in the second.
To do that though both teams need to pick up some more wins, and both reaching the knockout rounds would bolster that significantly.
Celtic and Rangers cannot play each other in the last 32 due to UEFA's country protection but the pair could be drawn together if they reach the last 16 when the tournament becomes an open draw.
If the Scottish sides win their groups they are currently set to avoid big-hitters Arsenal and Manchester United with both English sides leading the way in their respective sections.
As things stand Celtic are top of their group and would go through as a seeded team, while Steven Gerrard's side are currently second and would go through without being seeded.
The knockout phase sees the 12 group winners plus the four third-placed Champions League teams with the best record given seeded status, while the runners-up in the Europa League and the other four Champions League side are unseeded.
Teams from the same group cannot face each other in the last 32, so Celtic cannot face Cluj or Lazio and Rangers cannot be drawn against Young Boys, Feyenoord or Porto.
Sevilla are currently the only guaranteed seeded team, having won their group with four wins from four games.
With two games to go things could still change, here are the potential opponents for both Scottish teams.
Celtic
Neil Lennon's side are currently top of their group so would be seeded for the last 32 if they finish first.
That should give them an easier draw but there are still some big-hitters lying in wait.
As things stand the likes of former foes Zenit St Petersburg and Wolves will be going through unseeded, while Red Star are poised to come down from the Champions League.
Borussia Monchengladbach are currently top of the Bundesliga and as things stand they'll also be going through in second place. That would mean a reunion with Marco Rose.
The former Salzburg boss was among the bookies' favourites for the Celtic job before making the switch to Germany.
They're in Group J which is currently very tight, so Roma or Basaksehir could also end up in second place after the final two games.
Potential opponents:
Apoel
Dynamo Kiev
Getafe
LASK
Standard Liege
Ludogorets
Wolfsburg
Borussia Monchengladbach
Wolves
AZ Alkmaar
Zenit St Petersburg
Lokomotiv Moscow
Red Star
Club Brugge
Rangers
Rangers can still win their group but as things stand they'd be going through in second place behind Young Boys.
That would mean a tough draw for the last 32 with Europa League specialists Sevilla already guaranteed to be seeded.
The Spanish club have won the competition five times, including three years in a row between 2014 and 2016.
A Battle of Britain could be on the cards with Manchester United and Arsenal both currently topping their sections, and there's also the prospect of the team which comes third in the Champions League group of death.
Inter are currently third in Group F and both Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund can still finish in third place.
Potential opponents:
Sevilla
Copenhagen
Basel
Sporting
Arsenal
Espanyol
Gent
Basaksehir
Braga
Manchester United
Valencia
Dinamo Zagreb
RB Salzburg
Inter


Ofcom decides against formal probe after Burley ’empty chairs’ Tory chairman
The Sky News presenter’s actions sparked more than 270 complaints.
Kay Burley’s decision to “empty chair” James Cleverly will not lead to a formal investigation after Ofcom assessed the whole programme.
The media watchdog received 271 complaints over the Sky News presenter’s actions.
Burley claimed the Conservative Party chairman missed a planned appearance on her breakfast show, although the Tory MP responded that he was not due to appear.
Burley addressed a vacant seat with planned questions for the Tory politician.
But after assessing whether the two-hour programme breached rules on due impartiality, an Ofcom spokeswoman said: “We assessed complaints about the presenter’s treatment of the Conservative Party chairman.
“Having assessed the programme as a whole, we were satisfied that the viewpoint of the Conservatives was given sufficient weight to maintain due impartiality.
“This included a repeated clip of James Cleverly discussing his party’s ambitions for the election campaign.”
Mr Cleverly denied that he had been due to attend, saying: “I like to think I’m a pretty decent multitasker, but I cannot physically be in two places at the same time.”

Both those external factors alter ocean carbon storage and affect ocean chemistry and biology. Often I use ocean models constrained by observations to test hypotheses and help understand trends, variability, and extremes in carbon and related variables in the ocean. I am a Senior Scientist at the Climate and Environment Sciences Lab (LSCE) at the French CEA, which I joined after doctoral and postdoctoral studies in Oceanography (Texas A&M University and Princeton University).
Currently, I serve as Chair of the SOLAS-IMBER Working Group on Ocean Acidification (SIOA) and as co-Chair the Ocean Model Intercomparison Project (OMIP), which includes physical and biogeochemical components and is part of Phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). I am also coordinator of a French ANR project focused on changes in Southern Ocean biogeochemistry (SOBUMS).

Here are two images that have float:left;
As you can see they were placed one next to the other. Also
note that THIS whole red text appears in code AFTER the images
Next two images have float:left and clear:both;
As you can see now the images are not placed one next to the other because the clear rule prevents this. Yet the red text keeps
on showing BEFORE them, although in code appears AFTER them, because itself is in span that has no float rule applied
Now - this is the best usage of float property - you can wrap the text around the images very neatly. Here we will add some more text to demostrate this
