The Dryden Theatre Monday, April 14th The film and video work of Michael Robinson consists of equal parts landscape cinematography and pop culture mashup, and it is through the interaction between these two seemingly disparate modes of filmmaking that his work becomes transcendent. Milking out every drop of saccharine bliss from pop songs, Michael sweetens the normally doom-ridden theme of humanity’s failure to achieve heaven on Earth in Victory Over the Sun And We All Shine On (2006) is interested in the harmonies and discordances brought out by positioning and repositioning the natural world around the virtual, while you don’t bring me flowers (2005) investigates our fascination with pictorial tourism through a slideshow of National Geographic two-page landscape spreads. 2007’s Light is Waiting uses a heavily manipulated, very special episode of Full House as fodder to launch in to an examination of our media’s colonialist tendencies toward the exotic Other. Other films to be screened include The General Returns From One Place to Another Tidal Chiquita and the Soft Escape (2003), and his most recent video

Subscribe to RSS Subscribe to Newsletter Urban Croquet Posted by Yanko Design in All Archive Outdoor October 4, 2007 2:28 am, 4453 Views This guest post on Urban Croquet is by designer Alice Kaiserswerth. When John Jaques made croquet an overnight craze in England 150 years ago, he packaged a game that fit perfectly into the physical and social spaces of the mid 19th Century - casual, fun, social, and played in the spacious gardens of the gentry or any clearing sufficient to install hoops and stakes. The free-wheeling spirit of those formative days of croquet is gone forever. Or is it? All parts of the croquet design follow a single design language linked by materials, colors and shapes - not just the croquet equipment but also clothing, bags, fashion accessories and shoes. With the overall concept in place, I identifed Adidas Originals as the brand to work with - the perfect fit for what I had in mind. They look to the past for inspiration, but create new designs for the authentic and contemporary products of the future. All the products of the brand have a clear foundation in sport but are meant for lifestyle and street wear. Alice designed a straightforward solution to the problem of installing hoops on hard surfaces: the tops of the stick-in hoops shown here on grass are weighted and flattened, so they can be turned upside down and set flat on hard surfaces like this asphalt parking lot. A thin layer of rubber prevents slide.

December 12, 2006 - A very sad day... a GMCS friend cashed in his chips today. Remembering Steely Dan: November 20, 2006 - Yeah, I know I really slacked this time around. I think the tournament was held on September 2nd? Labor Day? I'm just now updating the site. In all honesty, I lost the freakin' media card from the camera and didn't have any pics to use. Fortunately, I found it when I was cleaning for the recent Thanksgiving festivities. I won't have the pic and wicket pages done until I get some more pics from others. This pic of our winner Antonio is one of the few I currently have. On to the results... As mentioned, Antonio Lorenzo Tabacchi Fernandez won his THIRD Golden Mallet victory. A fine player, for sure. He came out on top in a solid final round. I can't recall who he knocked out to win, but I think it was Jill Bowman. Jill always comes in second. One of these days, she's gonna win it. It was a great weekend with lots of beer guzzling and croquet. As we did a couple years ago, we followed it up with a nice float trip on the Little Miami River the next day. I'm still working on website stuff in bits and pieces..

C ROQUET CROQUET WE CAN BELIEVE IN. Health care, the war, the economy, immigration, abortion, stem cells. These are all very important issues to some people, but what do they have to do with Croquet? Very little. Politicians use these issues to distract voters from the fact that none of them have anything that even approaches being a comprehensive croquet season, and many probably don't even own a mallet. At the North Side Croquet Club, we have a plan for a croquet season extending from April through October, from Mosquito Park to Ruby Hill, from Tuesday's at 6 until Tuesday's at 9 or 10. And every game will have beer. Every game will be fun. Every game will have 9 wickets and 2 posts and a sore loser. This is our promise to America, and our promise to America's enemies as well. So on April 22nd, dust off your mallet and take a stand for your freedom to get drunk and play yard games with your friends. Season opener April 22nd at Wolff Park C ROQUET C ROQUET

Ever since the Holland, Pa., couple converted an unused strip of their backyard into a manicured horseshoe pit, the good times are found right at home. "I should charge a cover to all of the people who want to come play in my backyard," Beth says. The Campagnas' court goes way beyond a metal stake driven into the dirt. It's an all-out landscaping feature. Sand pits sit in the center of two raised gravel beds, backed by low walls of pressure-treated lumber. The backstops control errant horseshoes and offer a handy shelf to hold a drink while someone is pitching. Low retaining walls built of mortarless concrete block protect spectators and provide seating between games. Lamp posts flank the pits and low-voltage lighting is tucked into the shrubbery.

An illustrator, oil painter and watercolorist, Homer created battlefront illustrations for “Harper’s Weekly” before moving on to tranquil farm and rural scenes. Homer is famous for his energetic, epic seascapes, as well as portrayals of man pitted against the rugged wilderness. His fresh, spontaneous style and exquisite expression of atmosphere had a revolutionary impact on watercolor art. This high-quality art print is expertly produced to capture the vivid color and exceptional detail of the original.

home Croquet The Game, General Information International National, District Misc/Equipment We are looking for a croquet librarian contact us The sport of Croquet is a game of skill and tactics which involves using a mallet to promote one or more of 4 balls through a set course of six narrow hoops. It can be likened to playing a combination of Snooker and Chess on grass. Through the strategic use of extra turns awarded for particular moves, players are able to build "breaks" of several hoops in a single turn.
