Heres what the three finalists need to do to impress Prue and Paul: put a signature twist on carrot cake, master a technical based on a Belgian recipe, and serve a showstopper banquet fit for a Mad Hatters tea party. Hollie Richardson

Who won at ‘It’s hip to be square,’ the 6-Inch Square Show at the Redlands Art Association – Redlands News

Judith Sparhawk won first place and $100 in the Redlands Art Associations 6-Inch Square Show

A 6-inch piece of art called Catnip Tea Party by longtime Redlands artist Judith Sparhawk won first place in the Redlands Art Associations 6-Inch Square Show, which runs through Friday, Dec. 10.

For another two weeks visitors of the Redlands Art Association can enjoy the popular display of 6-by-6 inch art that lines the walls and table tops around the gallery.

More than 60 entries arrived for the third annual show where 1st through 4th place received monetary prizes. Two honorable mentions were also selected in the judged show where only members of Redlands Art Association could enter. Long time member and fellow artist, Jeff Owens judged the show and selected the winners.

First-place winner was Judith Sparhawk with Catnip Tea Party. Second place was taken by Kathryn Young with Carefree, third place went to Sandy Davies with Tiny Elephant and Jeff Moulds got fourth place with U.S.S. McNamaras Folly. The two honorable mentions went to Lynaia Freund with Summer Flowers and Carol Lima with Lavender Bliss.

Liz Coviello, gallery coordinator at Redlands Art Association, explained how many different types of media are represented in this years show.

We had some new artists submit things for the first time, Coviello said.

The show is not only a chance for members to be featured these weeks but also to get them to participate in a judged show.

The entries at the 6-Inch Square Show are all for sale at the gallery with prices beginning at $30.

Weve invited the artists to replace and put something new up, Coviello explained when one of art pieces are sold. Because of Thanksgiving, out-of-town visitors who come by the gallery should be able to buy the artwork, Coviello added.

The judge, Jeff Owens, studied at the University of Redlands where he earned his teaching credentials in social science and art. He has been a member of the Redlands Art Association since it was founded in 1964. Owens has won many awards and honors over the years and has been awarded membership to prestigious art collectives such as Watercolor West and the National Watercolor Society.

I think its a nice quality. Its an interesting mix of mediums, Coviello said, though most of all its quite a challenge to make artwork fit into the size requirement.

I was very surprised, said Sparhawk, an association member for more than 25 years, when she found out she had won first place. I was there when the judging was going on. He said that he liked the composition of it and that it was very different.

Its so amazing to me that you give artists a challenge and then you get these really nice little masterpieces.

She has won a first place once at the Multimedia Mini Show and received other honorable mentions at other shows, but this is her first win at the 6-Inch Square Show.

These small masterpieces can be seen at Redlands Art Association until Friday, Dec. 10.

Their First Date Was 14 Years in the Making – The New York Times

Adam Dalva said he fell in love with Alana Salguero the first day he met her during freshman year at Swarthmore College in 2004. He would later write his wedding vows the night after their first date.

But that date didnt take place until more than a decade later.

I fell very strongly in love with Alana right away, Mr. Dalva said. He signed up for a Russian literature course at Swarthmore because Ms. Salguero mentioned she was interested in it, then joined the Tango club because she was a member.

Although Ms. Salguero, 35, considered Mr. Dalva, 35, a close friend that first semester, there were no romantic feelings on her end. I immediately found a kindred spirit in him and I truly loved him as a friend, she said.

That winter, she turned Mr. Dalva down when he declared his love for her. The pair didnt speak again until their junior year, when they both coincidentally signed up to study abroad in Italy.

There, a tentative friendship was rekindled. It only grew deeper and steadier when each moved to New York City after graduating in 2008.

The pair often met up as friends over the next 10 years. Though both dated others during this time, Mr. Dalva was unable to shake his unrequited feelings for Ms. Salguero.

His steadfastness ultimately changed things around for her. Reeling from a breakup, the death of a beloved pet and the stress of moving into a new apartment, Mr. Dalvas genuine concern and care for her, Ms. Salguero said, led to an emotional shift. In April 2018, she agreed to a romantic date.

A New York City native, Mr. Dalva has a degree in English literature and went on to receive an M.F.A. in 2013 from N.Y.U. He is currently the books editor for the magazine Words Without Borders, as well as a creative writing professor at Rutgers University and a freelance writer.

Originally from Yorba Linda, Calif., Ms. Salguero graduated with a degree in art history and is the associate director of copy at Eileen Fisher in New York. The couple also share an art studio at the Invisible Dog Art Center in Brooklyn, where Ms. Salguero creates visual art and Mr. Dalva writes.

Ms. Salguero realized she was in love with Mr. Dalva while they were on a trip to Scotland in September 2018.

The second I told him I loved him, I knew wed be getting married, she said.

The next month, the two moved in together, and by the following year, they were engaged. Mr. Dalva proposed to Ms. Salguero on May 20, 2019 at their shared home in Brooklyn.

The couple were married Oct. 31 in an outdoor ceremony at the Franciscan Gardens in San Juan Capistrano, Calif., in front of 85 guests. Victoria Gottlieb, a friend of Mr. Dalva from graduate school, officiated after becoming ordained by the American Marriage Ministries for the event. Afterward, attendees enjoyed a Venetian masquerade-themed cocktail party.

The ceremony and cocktail party were part of a three-day wedding celebration. The day before, there was a dinner followed by a bonfire at Corona del Mar State Beach. And the day after, an English tea party was held at the Tea House On Los Rios. Those in attendance were vaccinated and staff wore masks.

After a three-day honeymoon in Palm Springs, Calif., the couple returned to New York.

I feel like moving forward itll be more of what weve done before, Ms. Salguero said. We play around, we have fun, and thats what were going to be doing in the future.

Echoes of ‘Harry and Louise’ ads | News, Sports, Jobs – The Daily news – Iron Mountain Daily News

EDITOR:

Remember Harry and Louise? I do. TV ads in which Louise voices her fears of a government takeover of health care. Whispers of shortages, denials and death panels swept the country. Deep pockets paid for those ads and deep pockets paid for the busloads of tea party protesters who roamed about, spreading fears that, somehow, never materialized with the passage of the Affordable Care Act. Years before, in response to the Clinton administrations ill-fated attempt to establish universal health care, the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation had developed a plan that utilized existing insurance companies to provide coverage for everyone. As governor, Mitt Romney instituted the Heritage plan in Massachusetts. His party backed the plan at that time, but when President Barack Obama wanted to use that same plan nationwide, they renamed it Obamacare and fought vociferously against it. Socialism, you know. Government takeover of health care. No choice of doctors. Poor Louise. Poor Harry.

I remember, too, President George W. Bushs support for Medicare Part D, the prescription drug coverage. The same bill specifically encouraged the development of Medicare Advantage plans, in which the insurer would get the money that we paid into Medicare,as well as additional premiums paid separately by each enrollee. The hope was that these managed care plans would be so well accepted that traditional Medicare would eventually fade away, leaving the field once more to the private insurance companies. This same bill also forbade Medicare from negotiating prices with drug companies, a restriction that did not apply to private insurers. The Advantage plans were widely accepted, and no one seemed to notice or care that the drug formulary sent out by each insurer, along with the tier levels of drugs and the list of participating pharmacies were, in effect, the insurance companies telling us what drugs we could take, and where we could buy them. These decisions were made based upon the prices they negotiated with drug companies. Now Congress considers allowing Medicare the same right to negotiate. Outrage! Socialism! People will die! Have you seen those commercials? Shades of Harry and Louise.
