Olivia Dolphin’s Witch Pop Album Transforms for the ‘Better’

Artist Olivia Dolphin recently released her highly anticipated sophomore album, Better. This project is a deeply personal – yet relatable – exploration of self-growth, transformation, and reclamation, combining elements of alt-rock, witch pop, and orchestral rock to create a sound that is as haunting as it is empowering. Following the success of her debut album Lion-Hearted Blood and recent singles like “Quiet Girls,” Dolphin continues to solidify her place as a rising force in the Rhode Island music scene and beyond. Her self-produced multi-genre shows feature a thoughtful blend of artists across all styles and backgrounds. This momentum has created buzz not only for Dolphin, but also the flourishing local arts community that fuels her. B-Side Guys praised her recent releases, saying Dolphin “crafts a sound that’s both atmospheric and fiercely resonant, marking a significant evolution in her artistic journey…she’s poised for recognition far beyond Rhode Island’s borders.” Better represents a culmination of Dolphin’s experiences, relationships, and reflections over the past several years, captured through a meticulously crafted collection of tracks. The project was recorded at Big Nice Studio in Dolphin’s hometown, with Emma Newton as co-producer and recording engineer. Newton’s ability to capture the emotional depth of Dolphin’s songwriting is evident throughout the album, particularly on orchestral tracks like “Once Again” and “Wanted.” The album also features contributions from musicians Johnny McMahon (bass guitar), Jeff Kidd (harmonica), Emily Dix Thomas (cello), Luke Leheny (guitar), Sam Jaksa (drums), and Charlie Larson (clarinet, saxophone). The project was mastered by Bradford Krieger, with photography by Maurisa Mackey and vinyl graphic design by Brittany Lizotte. Drawing inspiration from artists like Hozier, Florence and the Machine, and Billie Eilish, the world of Better is one of contrasts and dualities. It’s the red poppies growing amidst dark woods, the flicker of candlelight in a storm, the quiet of an empty room after a long day. The album’s lyrical content reflects Dolphin’s journey through her twenties, exploring the complexities of relationships, mental health, and self-acceptance. More about Olivia Dolphin: Hailing from Providence, Rhode Island, Olivia Dolphin bewitches audiences with her singer-songwriter prowess, skillfully infusing her discography with themes of community, embracing self-love, and practicing perseverance. With tracks steeped in poetic lyricism, Dolphin’s music possesses the remarkable ability to transform universal experiences into deeply personal and relatable moments. Effortlessly weaving together elements of indie pop and alternative rock, Dolphin crafts a sound that is as distinctive as it is irresistible, leaving listeners spellbound and hungry for more. With two feline friends by her side and her piano at the helm, she aspires to cultivate an inclusive atmosphere where everyone feels embraced in their uniqueness. Her debut album, Lion-Hearted Blood, earned her the title of “Stellar Songwriter” from Motif Magazine, affirming her position as a prominent figure in the Rhode Island music scene. With her sophomore album, Better, out September 20, Dolphin eagerly anticipates a year filled with forging connections with both new and longtime fans.

Anonymous asked: Have you watched Lupin? What did you think? (And are you a fan of the books or other adaptations of the character?)

The short answer is yes, I have seen Lupin on Netflix. Overall I enjoyed it so long as I suspended my disbelief at certain things.

Unfortunately it took being struck down by Covid and being bedridden for me to actually to binge watch the whole series. So I was behind the curve when my friends, French and those outside of France, started to talk about it around me. I had to beg them not to give away spoilers until I had seen it all.

It did surprise me that it won rave widespread reviews outside France because usually French drama series don’t travel very well outside of France. I’m sure even Netflix had no idea how successful it would be for them. I’m sure being in Covid lockdown had something to do with it. In any case I don’t begrudge its success as it’s well earned.

However I wasn’t too surprised that within France itself the French reviews were decidely mixed and divisive. The critic at Le Point painfully hit the nail on the head when he wrote, “Le plus gros défaut de l'ensemble reste la pauvreté des personnages, tous unidimensionnels, caricaturaux et aussi épais que du papier à cigarette.“ - loosely translated as, ‘the biggest flaw of the whole thing remains the poverty of the characters, all one-dimensional, cartoonish and as thick as cigarette paper’.

There’s a growing amount of good French stuff on TV and streaming services but a non-French audience will not have had the chance to have seen all of it yet. I can think of any number of French television drama/dramedy/cmedy series that are much better than Lupin with better plots, characters, and even a truer perspective of French society and even modern day France (Dix pour cent (Call My Agent!), Le Bureau des Légendes, Engrenages, Baron Noir, and Paris Police 1900). But you would be hard pressed to find anything that comes close to Lupin just for the sake of something fun to watch during the Covid lockdown.

What makes the current generation of home made French television series so interesting is how much of it is a reflection of France’s own anxieities about itself and its role in a increasingly English speaking dominating world. In a funny way it sees itself as defiant plucky Asterix fighting off the Roman American cultural hordes from totally invading their Francophone culture.

For sure, it has societal and racial issues stemming from its colonial legacy and issues of immigration and integration (France has the largest Muslim population in Europe). However it seems to want to ‘resolve’ these issues through the almost sacramental adherence to French secularist ideals rather than American inspired ideas of social justice and equity. There’s always been something very admirable about the French - from the time of General de Gaulle and perhaps before - always swinging from snooty ambivalence to outright antipathy towards the influence of American culture ‘americanising’ French culture (no to Walmarts or fast food chains for example).

Is it any wonder then that Netflix’s ill-conceived American series ‘Emily in Paris’ was widely hated and mocked within France for just perpetuating those lazy American tropes of Paris and French culture?

Personally I know Francophile Americans, long resident in Paris, who were frankly embarrassed and spent a lot of time apologising to their French friends. I have one American friend who has told me that she was so mad that she would have blind folded Emily and shoved her hard in the car boot and drive her all the way to the poorest of the banlieues in the grimey crime saturated suburbs of Paris - Seine-Saint-Denis came to mind - and dump her preening arse there. She would slap her and tell the spoilt entitied brat to make her own way back home - you know, to her spacious apartment in one of the most expensive arrondissements of Paris that of course(!) any American intern working for French marketing firms can afford.

I digress. My apologies. Watching this God awful show gives me PTSD.

Onto Lupin.

Thankfully Lupin doesn’t try to play to non-French tropes of what Paris is or isn’t. It does skim the surface of current discontents within French culture and society (race, class, power, and money) but ever so lightly so as to not get in the way of just spinning a good crowd pleasing yarn. It invites you to have fun and not to think too much. I have to be honest and say I enjoyed it as long as I suspended my disbelief here and there.

Lupin refers of course to the character Arsène Lupin, the French gentleman thief who stole jewellery from Parisian haute bourgeois and aristocracy at the turn of the century. Lupin, as written in the novels and short stories by Maurice Leblanc between 1905 and his death in 1941, was the archetypical anti-hero, a Robin Hood who stole from those who deserved it but kept the loot himself. He was often portrayed often a force for good, while operating on the wrong side of the law.

Lupin never really made much of an impact outside of France as he had within France where is revered with many French film and television adaptations. In England, we already had a Lupin type character in the form of A.J. Raffles, a cricket playing gentleman thief with his aristocratic side kick, Bunny. E.W. Horning’s stories of Raffles’ daring heists proved to be quite popular with the British public when Raffles first appeared on the scene in 1898. And even later Leslie Charteris’ The Saint took over the mantle from Raffles as the gentleman thief/adventuring Robin Hood.

I think Hollywood tried to introduce him to an English speaking audience (legendary actor John Barrymore even played him) but he didn’t really take off and eventually they found their gentleman thief archetype in Sir Charles Lytton aka The Phantom (played by David Niven and Christopher Plummer) in the Pink Panther movies. So Lupin never got the English audience he deserved.

I first got wind of who Arsène Lupin was when I was growing up in Japan as a child. As strange as it sounds Lupin was big in Japan especially after World War Two. The Japanese did their own take on the Lupin character using Japanese actors and plot lines but it was Lupin.

I don’t know how exactly but I remember watching these scratchy DVDs of these Lupin inspired films. I think it was one of my parents’ Japanese friends who was mad for all things Lupin and he had studied French literature in France. Jogging my memory I now recall these black & white films were done in the 1950s. One starred Keiji Sada and the other version I remember was with Eija Okada (he was in Resnais’ classic film, Hiroshima Mon Amour) as Arsene Lupin called (I think) Kao-no Nai Otoko. I didn’t understand most of it at the time because it was all in Japanese and my Japanese (at the time) was pitiful, but it looked fun.

There was even a Japanese manga version of Lupin which was called Lupin III, - so named because he was the grandson of the real Arsène Lupin.

The 1960s manga series spawned generations of TV series which I do remember watching and finding it terribly exciting if somewhat confusing.

It was French expatriate friends whom my family knew that introduced me to the real Arsène Lupin. They had a few of the books authored by Maurice Leblanc. It was in French so I read them to improve my French but enjoyed the story along the way.

I also remember them showing me scratchy episodes of the 1970s Franco-German TV series ‘Arsène Lupin’ with the monocle wearing Georges Descrières in the lead role. It was a classical re-telling of the adventures of the aristocratic gentleman-burglar and very family friendly viewing. I don’t really remember much of it to be honest.

It was some years before I actually started to read more of the Maurice Leblanc’s novels and short stories collection. I have them all now. I was a teen and I remember being stuck in a snowed in a Swiss Alpine chalet and with nothing else to do but pull out a few dog eared books from the bookshelves belonging to our French host and read to pass the time.

I read Les Dents du tigre, Arsène Lupin vs Herlock Sholmes, and Les Huit Coups de l'horloge and thoroughly enjoyed them in the original French. I was already reading classic detective and mystery novels (Sherlock Holmes, Poirot etc) so it was natural to read the adventures of Arsène Lupin.

I haven’t got around to reading all the novels and short stories but I have read most of them and I enjoyed them all immensely. In the same way Conan Doyle, through Holmes and Watson, manages to conjure a convincing picture of late Victorian and early Edwardian England, so Leblanc manages to give us a taste of Belle Epoque France through the eyes of his suave gentleman-thief, Arsène Lupin.

Indeed it's a lot like reading Sherlock Holmes in that you're always trying to figure out how he did it, but the difference is that you are rooting for the bad guy. You can’t help but be drawn to this gentleman thief who is charming, comic, playful, and romantic and generous. Lupin is not an intellectual puzzle-solver but first a master criminal, later a detective helper, who maintains his curious ethics throughout his adventures. In this regard he is very much the anti-Sherlock Holmes; and I wasn’t disappointed when I actually read the story where Lupin faces off with Holmes himself. Brilliant!

I’ve also seen the 2004 French movie with Romain Duris in the Lupin lead role and it also starred the majestic Kristin Scott Thomas and the sexy Eva Green.

It was a decent adventure flick and it was a clear confluence of different Lupin novels (The Queen's Necklace (introducing Lupin's childhood), The Hollow Needle (where the treasure is the macguffin of the story), The Arrest of Arsène Lupin (the gala on the ship as a backdrop) and Josephine Balsamo, (one of Lupin’s most memorable opponents in the The Countess Of Cagliostro).

Romaine Duris, a fine classical actor, was I felt miscast because he didn’t have Lupin’s levity of wit and be at ease within himself. I love Duris in his other films but in Arsène Lupin and even in his other film, Moliere, he seemed ill at ease with the role. Perhaps that’s just me.

The latest Netflix adaptation (or reimagining to be more precise) is a welcome addition to the world of Arsène Lupin.If you don’t over-think it, it’s bags of fun.

Omar Sy is immensely likeable. Sy is a deservedly a big star in France - he won the best actor César for “The Intouchables,” an international hit - and has played forgettable secondary characters in big-budget American special effects movies (he was Chris Pratt’s assistant in “Jurassic World” and a minor mutant in “X-Men: Days of Future Past”). It was reportedly his desire to play Arsène Lupin, whom he’s compared to James Bond (“fun, funny, elegant”), that led to the series, created by British writer George Kay. And it is on his charm that the series largely, though not entirely, rests.

So the basic story revolves around a jewellery heist. Sy plays Assane Diop, a first-generation French-Senegalese man in contemporary Paris. A collection of Lupin stories, a gift from his father - whose undeserved fate Assane set himself to avenge in long-delayed, Count of Monte Cristo style upon a criminal tycoon - has made the actual Lupin books a foundation of his life and profitably illicit career. This fan-ship goes as far as borrowing practical ideas from the stories and constructing aliases out of anagrams of “Arsene Lupin,” a habit that will attract the interest of a low-level police detective (Soufiane Guerrab as Youssef Guedira) who shares Assane’s love of the books. (That the detective also shares an initial with Lupin’s own adversary, Inspector Ganimard, is possibly not a coincidence.)

Among the many comic delights of Lupin, is an unspoken one. Time and again, the show’s hero, master thief Assane Diop is able to slip into a place unnoticed, or by assuming a minor disguise that prevents witnesses from providing an accurate description of him to law enforcement.

Why is this funny?

Because Omar Sy is six feet three (and, since most actors are short, seems even taller), is roughly as wide as soccer pitch, and is memorable even before he flashes his infectious million-Euro smile. This is not a man for whom anonymity should be possible - even allowing for racial bias in a majority-white country, Assane would be memorable and distinctive - and Lupin seems cheekily aware of this. Like the various incredible sleights of hand Assane deploys to pull off his thefts and escapes, his ability to be anyone, anywhere, is treated more as a superpower than as something even the world’s greatest criminal would be able to pull off.

At one point, when he’s slated for a cable news appearance as a much older man, we learn that Assane is also a master of disguise. The revelation of this skill arrives with a wink in the show, and it feels pointless to ask where he learned it, or how he affords movie-quality latex and makeup. Or rather, asking the question feels wrong.

We know this is impossible, the show seems to be asking its viewers again and again, but isn’t it so much fun?

The performances and the production - it has that particularly European filmic quality of feeling natural even when it gets stylish - keep the series warm even as the plot is made up of incredulous contraptions that require everything to go right at just the right time and for human psychology to be 100% predictable. Its physics are classical rather than quantum, one might say, and like the world itself, which becomes more curious the deeper you peer into things, it is best handled along the surface. You do not want to take too much time working out the likelihood of any of this happening. Just go along for the ride.

Somehow, though, it all works because Sy is so magnetic and charming that questioning plot logic feels wildly besides the point. Though he never looks appreciably different in his various aliases (including one ill-conceived live-TV appearance done under old-man makeup and a thick beard), he changes his posture and voice ( if you watch it in French that is) enough to allow for the willing suspension of disbelief, in the same way that any lead actor as Superman has to do when playing Clark Kent. But Sy and the show are at their strongest when Assane is just being his own Superman self, utterly relaxed and confident in his own skin, and so captivating that his ex-partner, Claire, can’t really resist him despite ample reason to.

If Assane seems practically perfect in every way, he is not perfectly perfect. His most obvious failing is that his criminal shenanigans and revenging make him less than reliable in his daily life, affecting his relationships with ex-partner Claire (Ludivine Sagnier, whom non-French audiences might recognise from “The Young Pope” and “The New Pope”), who despairs of his inability to show up on time to see his son Raoul (Etan Simon). Like Sy, Sagnier brings a lot of soul to her part - though onscreen far less, she’s as important as Sy to the series’ success - and the two actors have great chemistry. Also impressive and key to creating sympathy are the actors who play their flashback teenage selves, Mamadou Haidara and Ludmilla Makowski. Really, you could do away with action elements and build a series around them.

This is a pity because Lupin often fumbles its emotional reveals in other parts - the story of Diop being torn between his job and his family feels like wheel-spinning, rather than genuine emotional intrigue.

Soufiane Guerrab is wasted in the Young Detective Consumed by the Case role and spends most of this season pinning colour printouts of book covers to cork boards and getting waved off by his colleagues, who are all blinded or otherwise hampered by careerism.

But to my mind the weakest link is the villain himself and his daughter. Veteran actor Hervé Pierre hams it up as Hubert Pellegrini, a business tycoon who is the patriarch of the Pellegrini family. He just comes across as animated cartoon villain with no character depth (think moustache twirling Russian villain, Boris Badenov, in the Rocky & Bullwinkle cartoon shows). He just emotes anger a lot without any nuance or hint of complexity.

Even Clotilde Hesme who plays the daughter who is unaware of her father’s criminal tendencies is miscast. For the record I adore Clotilde Hesme as she one of France’s most talented classical actresses (that non-French outsiders will not have heard of). She is a classically theatre trained actress and is one of the best stage actresses of her generation that I have ever seen. I’ve seen her in plays where she is just mesmerising. She has said before that she’s more comfortable on the stage than she is on the screen. And when she has been on screen she still has been a powerful presence. She’s actually won a César too. Here in Lupin, she seems to have no agency and looks bored with nothing really to do.I really hope they give her more scenes in the next part of Lupin.

The series is at its best when following Diop enacting his plans, and when revealing each one from a different vantage, making us privy to every moving part like a magician revealing his secrets. The show captures the momentum of a clockwork heist, the tension of sudden obstacles and the ingenuity of improvised responses, with thrilling precision (especially in “Chapter 1 - Le Collier de la reine,” directed by Now You See Me’s Louis Leterrier).

Lupin is also politically incisive when it wants to be; it brings to mind Ladj Ly’s Oscar-nominated 2019 film Les Misérables, which adapted the broad strokes of Victor Hugo’s novel about the 1832 Paris Rebellion, and modernised the story by focusing on the police brutality faced by non-white Parisians.

Lupin opens with Diop disguised as cleaning staff and entering the Louvre after-hours, alongside dozens of forgotten, anonymous non-white workers as they pass by “La Liberté guidant le people,” Eugène Delacroix’s famous painting of the July Revolution of 1830 which replaced France’s hereditary rule with popular sovereignty.

Before any semblance of plot or character, Lupin centres broken ideals and promises unkept (without giving too much away, the show’s primary villain has much more nationalistic view of French culture and history which merely adds to a cartoonish caricature than a complex character). The rest of the episode is about valuable jewels once owned by Marie Antionette - one of the most recognisable symbols of wealth and extravagance in times of extreme poverty - which are put up for auction by the Pelligrini family, and bid on by other wealthy collectors with bottomless purses and no sense of irony.

Granted, beyond this auction subplot, explorations of race and class are largely limited to individual interactions, but the show continues to refer back to (and implicitly comment on) its source material in ways that wink at the audience. An elderly, unassuming target of Diop’s schemes seems like an unlikely victim at first - Diop, though he acts in his own self-interest, usually displays a moral compass - until this victim reveals the colonial origins of her wealth, immediately re-contextualising the ethics of the situation, in a manner that Leblanc’s stories did not. (The show is yet to apply this lens to Arsène Lupin himself, who Diop treats with reverence, but that’s a secondary concern since Lupin is entirely fictional in-world).

Barring some nagging structural problems - like cutting to flashbacks when things are getting exciting, or epilogues that feel ten minutes too long - Lupin mostly works. It plants a few personal seeds early on, which it keeps hinting at without fully addressing, but by the time its scattered elements come into focus, the show finally figures out how to weave them together, and delivers a mid-season cliffhanger that renders many of these flaws irrelevant.

Lupin manages to have fun even with an antiquated premise - the story of a suave con-man who charms his way through high-profile robberies - while adding just enough new spin on the concept to feel refreshing. Omar Sy may not have much to work with, but his alluring presence makes Assane Diop feel like a worthy successor to Arsène Lupin.

Lupin isn’t going to win César, BAFTA, or Emmy awards, or even turn heads for its ability to develop tertiary or even secondary plots or characters - that doesn’t really matter. You’re there to see a difficult hero be difficult and heroic - everyone else is there to be charmed, vexed, or eluded by them. Sy’s performance bounds off the screen, and is almost musical. He floats through scenes like he glides over the roofs and through the back alleys of Paris; he outmanoeuvres his foes with superior literary references and sheer athleticism. He is irresistible and also good at everything he tries, even kidnapping.

I would encourage anyone to watch Lupin for a fun care free ride. But the only caveat I would make is watch it in the original French.

If you don’t know French then put on the subtitles to understand (that’s what they are there for). The real crime is to watch this (or any film or television series) dubbed in a foreign language. It’s disrespectful to the actors and film makers and it’s silly because it’s comical to watch something dubbed over.

Please watch it in the original French.

Then go and read the books. You won’t regret it.

Thanks for your question.

Aujourd’hui, un classique des années 1990, 1995 précisément, qui représente véritablement l’essence du son club de ces années.

Mixé par Tracy & Sharon, redevenu Tom Stephan plus tard (Superchumbo, etc.), c’est également la première compilation estampillée Queen / Queen Paris, du regretté Queen “102, Champs Elysées” Club.

Elle compte - à “quelques” titres près - tout ce qui se fait de plus connu en matière de club classics, à la fois kitsch et camp : titres garage et plus commerciaux, et un design kitschissime, hommage appuyé aux drag-queens, dont le club était l'épicentre parisien - Mercedes, La Chose, Pétunia, are you here? Au menu, RuPaul évidemment, mais aussi Roxy, figures centrales des nuits new-yorkaises d'alors, Danny “T. Colby” Tenaglia vs Junior “V. Carrington” Vasquez (celle-là, je l'ai piquée à CodA Magazine), dont la guerre était alors à son apogée, titres emblématiques comme l'hymne camp et drag des drag-queens, ‘Didn’t I Know (Divas To The Dancefloor… Please)’ signé E.G. Fullalove, des hymnes club et kitsch - Olga ‘I’m A Bitch’ et le très embarrassant (à “chanter”) mais génial 'Oohhh Baby’ de V.S. aka Vida Simpson, dans sa version remixée par Armand Van Helden - l'autre version est encore plus trash !, ainsi que le désormais culte 'Club Rules’ de Namby Pamby aussi entendu dans “Pédale Douce” l'année suivante.

Des absents, de grands absents même, mais bon, comme à chaque fois dans ce genre d'exercice. On ne les nommera pas donc : il suffit de faire quelques recherches pour les trouver.

Pour y être allé une première fois l'été 1995, et avoir passé la terrible Sandrine, je peux vous assurer que ce son est l'exacte photographie du son clubbing d'alors, de celui que d'aucuns considèrent comme l'âge d'or du clubbing et dont 1995 représente l'année-phare.

En cette période de regain spectaculaire des drag-queens, et ce n’est pas le succès de RuPaul’s Drag Race depuis plus de dix ans qui me contredira, il me semblait juste de rendre hommage et justice à ce haut-lieu des nuits parisiennes qui vit la culmination de cette équation, ce mix difficile entre clientèle, animation et musique.

Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés , mais les oreilles grandes ouvertes. 'Love to do it!** ** Un petit - en fait, non, un grand - merci spécial à DJ Co-Inside pour avoir amené ce son si particulier du Queen au News, une de ces plus belles années des 1990s et avoir joué un set alors mémorable et enflammé, et le… EG Fullalove ! ;)

Et merci à tous les beautiful people d'alors, Laurent B. et Karine, Servullo & Jessie, Sébastien - la vipère, Isabelle & Walid + Wilfried, Joël (miss you, bitch! Where are you now?) & Manu, Gaby + Alain, Julian, Karim & La Pam’, François et Joachim et Bruno, “Roméo” et Diane, la clique des Plaisir de… - Julien, Paul, Stéphane & Alexis la chinoise, DJ Purdey Bitch, Dom’ et Rodolphe et Isabelle -'Ugly!’, Marie-Laure B. + Thomas P. & Hugues M. et David, Céline et Arnaud“ils ont passé DeLacy 'Hideaway !’ ” les jumeaux & Philippe, Magali et Carine & les filles, Sandrine (“Téléthon”), Mehdi ‘Boy Bazar’ , Amin & Ezzedine, Mouss’ et ses frères, Ali “le bandit”, Jérémy B. - “Mais comment t'as fait ? Elles étaient toutes folles, vertes de jalousie !”, Anthony & Amélie, Emmanuel B. (BFF) & Benoît & Pauline & Renaud et Eric from Denmark et Adèle et Raphaël et Marc et Bruno & Aurore et Chieng-Fu, Musica Diablo et son équipe de choc - Alberto, Charles, Eric, Franck,  Emilie (R.I.P. - we miss you ) et Fred, RSF - Dan & PF et Keno, Rom et Jeff & Laurent D., Le Black Mint & Rémy, “Tata Maman Raoûl” (private joke - “Qui a chié sur le palier ?”), “Cathy La Fermière”, Le Voyage - Thomas, Fabien, Stéphane & Brigitte -, Lætitia et Maeva, Stéphane et sa bff Véronique, Cyril J., Alain “Maman” et Stéphanie et Jeff et Fred “Le Pacha” et William et Fabrice + Aline & Dominique - Le News & Le Duplex, Gilles ‘Baby Mixer - Kill that bitch!’ et Valérie et Sébastien et… Philippe B.

Sara Lord "Sally" Bodi

Sara Lord Bodi, known as Sally, 92, survived Hurricane Sandy, only to be felled by another natural disaster, Covid-19. In 2012, strong winds knocked out the electricity in the Bodi home in Glen Cove, New York. Sally's husband, Lewis Bodi, accidentally dropped a kerosene lantern he was lighting, and their house went up in flames. Sally tried to save her husband, but the fire forced her from the house. She survived, but Lew, a former provost at York College (CUNY), did not. Sally spent her remaining years in an assisted living facility in Dix Hills, Long Island, where she contracted Covid-19. She was sent to Huntington Hospital, where her son, Dr. Kip Bodi, works. Suited up in protective covering, he visited her daily, whereas her daughters' and her friends' only contact was by phone. Even toward the end, she told her daughters, "I'm not ready to give up the ship." That was typical of Sally's attitude toward life. She was descended from Pilgrims and pioneers. Raised in Plano, Illinois with three sisters, Sally Lord was a cheerleader and sang in the choir in her high school class of 1945. Her father, Arthur E. Lord, was a doctor in Plano and owned Lord's Drugstore; her mother Ruth Sears Lord, managed her family farm.

At DePauw University, Sally met Lew Bodi, recently returned from the war, who hailed from Racine, Wisconsin. They were a study in opposites - Lew, the outgoing son of Hungarian immigrants, a liberal Democrat; Sally, the soft-spoken Mayflower descendant, a conservative Republican. Lew would say, '"We dutifully vote every year, cancelling each other out at the polls."

Sally attained her PhD in clinical psychology from St. John's University while raising four children, and became chief school psychologist for the Glen Cove school system. In retirement, in addition to nurturing her grandchildren with a closet full of toys, she traced her genealogy. Sally created twelve binders full of letters, photographs, and family trees, including letters from a Civil War soldier and research about Archibald Sears, her great-grandfather who homesteaded in Plano, living with his family in a cave until he finished building a house.

Sally was known for her generosity. Sally and Lew's door in Glen Cove was always open to friends and family. As Emma Hurley, one of Sally's grand-daughters, said, "If I can emulate even one ounce of the generosity that Sara Lord Bodi showed in her life, I will be proud. She was brilliant, funny, charming, elegant, loyal, hard-working, and inspirational. I know she wasn't perfect, but to me she was close enough."

Sally is survived by her 96-year-old sister Emily Lord Leyshon of Prescott, AZ, son Dr. Kip Bodi and wife Chris Bodi of Cold Spring Harbor, NY and; daughters Sari Bodi and husband Eric Montgomery of Westport, CT; Betsy Bodi Thomas and husband Philip Thomas of Dallas, TX; and Nancy Bodi-Hurley and husband Michael Hurley of Northport, NY. She is also survived by eleven grandchildren, and their spouses; two step-grandchildren; five great-grand-daughters with another on the way; and one step-great-grand-daughter.

Criminal Minds Opening and closing Quotes: Season 6

Season 6 Episode 1 The Longest Night

JJ: “A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another.  If these minds love one another, the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one other it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden.” The Buddha.

Season 6 Episode 2 JJ

JJ: Jean Racine said, “A tragedy need not have blood and death; it’s enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness that is the pleasure of tragedy.”

Season 6 Episode 3 Remembrance of Things Past

Rossi: Marcel Proust wrote, “Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were.”

Rossi: Mark Twain wrote, “When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not. But my faculties are decaying now, and soon I shall be so that I cannot remember any but the things that never happened. It is sad to go to pieces like this, but we all have to do it.”

Season 6 Episode 4 Compromising Positions

Prentiss: “We all wear masks, and the times comes when we cannot remove them without removing our own skin.” Andre Berthiaume

Garcia: Abraham Lincoln said, “Whatever you are, be a good one.”

Season 6 Episode 5 Safe Haven

Morgan: “All humanity is one undivided and indivisible family. I cannot detach myself from the wickedest soul.” Mahatma Gandhi.

Morgan: “But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep.” Robert Frost.

Season 6 Episode 6 Devil’s Night

Hotchner: Niccolo Machiavelli wrote, “If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared.”

Hotchner: Thomas Kempis wrote, “Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of its trouble, attempts what is above its strength, pleads no excuse of impossibility; for it thinks all things lawful for itself, and all things possible.”

Hotchner: “Without heroes, we are all plain people and don’t know how far we can go.” Bernard Malamud

Hotchner: “The herd seek out the great, not for their sake but for their influence; and the great welcome them out of vanity or need.” Napoleon Bonaparte

Season 6 Episode 8 Reflection of Desire

Garcia: “Fame will go by and, so long, I’ve had you, fame. If it goes by, I’ve always known it was fickle. So at least it’s something I experience, but that’s not where I live.” Marilyn Monroe

Garcia: I believe humanity was born from conflict. Maybe that’s why in all of us lives a dark side. Some of us embrace it. Some have no choice. The rest of us fight it. In the end, it’s as natural as the air we breathe. At some point, we’re forced to face the truth. Ourselves.

Season 6 Episode 9 Into the Woods

Morgan: Ralph Ellison said, “I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me.”

Hotchner: Elise Cabot said, “Evil endures a moment’s flush, and then leaves but a burnt out shell.”

Prentiss: Friedrich Nietzsche wrote, “What really raises one’s indignation against suffering is not suffering intrinsically, but the senselessness of suffering.”

Prentiss: William Glasser wrote, “What happened in the past that was painful has a great deal to do with what we are today.”

Season 6 Episode 14 Sense Memory

Morgan: “Hunting is not a sport. In a sport, both sides should know they are in the game.” Comedian Paul Rodriguez.

Prentiss: “Nothing revives the past so completely as a smell that was once associated with it.” Novelist Vladimir Nabokov.

Season 6 Episode 15 Today I Do

Prentiss: “There’s no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.” Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Rossi: “It’s hard to fight an enemy who has outposts in your head.” Sally Kempton

Season 6 Episode 16 Coda

Reid: “Tomorrow, you promise yourself, will be different, but tomorrow is too often a repetition of today.” Author James T. Mccay

Morgan: Poet Antonio Porchia wrote, “Man, when he does not grieve, hardly exists.”

Season 6 Episode 21 The Stranger

Seaver: “Every journey into the past is complicated by delusions, false memories, false naming of real events.” Adrienne Rich

Hotchner: “Sometimes human places create inhuman monsters.” Stephen King.

Season 6 Episode 22 Out of the Light

Rossi: Agathon said, “Of this alone, even God is deprived, the power of making things that are past never to have been.”

Hotchner: Doménico Cieri Estrada wrote, “Bring the past only if you’re going to build from it.”

[pallasathena55]

C'était la dernière pièce de notre saison bruxelloise. Dix mois durant, nous avons écumé les salles et les théâtres, aux quatre coins de la capitale. Nous étions en quête d'émotions, nous avons été gâtés. Du rire, des larmes, du suspense, des surprises, du ravissement et de l'ennui, aussi. Décidément, moi et la danse contemporaine... Surtout intégrée dans une tragédie antique... Mon fiance a A-DO-RÉ, notez bien. Moi, je me suis ennuyé à périr, d'autant plus que j'en connaissais la fin... Soit ! Ce parcours effréné s'est conclu en beauté avec ce sommet du théâtre amateur : "Notre Petite Ville" de Thornton Wilder, monté par l'UDP. Magistral et ontologique à la fois, le tout dans une salle Cadol inversée. Il y avait là du Tennessee Williams, du Lars Von Trier et du Thomas Mann. Les acteurs étaient géniaux ; la mise en scène, parfaite et le texte renversant. Du théâtre méta ayant d'ailleurs reçu le prix Pulitzer en 1938...

Nous voilà à Grover's Corners, petit village du New Hampshire. Le bourg s'éveille, à l'image du siècle : nous sommes en 1901. Le narrateur nous introduit aux rues, aux maisons, aux habitants et à leurs habitudes. Il nous accompagnera tout au long de la pièce. Le facteur et le laitier parcourent le village, les Webb et les Gibbs s'éveillent. L'histoire s'attachera aux existences croisées des membres de ces deux familles voisines et amies. Les enfants partent à l'école, les hommes se mettent au travail, les femmes vaquent à leurs occupations domestiques. Une journée simple, paisible, tranquille dans cette Amérique profonde. Le temps semble immuable et la destinée des habitants de Grover's Corners, toute tracée.

Le narrateur nous emmène à travers les murs, mais aussi, à travers le temps. Un bond de trois années et nous assistons aux prémices, puis à la célébration du mariage de l'aîné des fils Gibbs avec l'aînée des filles Webb. George et Emily sont jeunes, beaux et pleins d'avenir. La vie leur tend les bras. Les promis sont certes angoissés à la perspective de leur union. Ils expriment leurs doutes, revivent les débuts de leur romance. Leurs familles respectives se réjouissent et font elles-aussi part de leurs craintes. George renonce à ses études et décide de rester à Grover's Corners. La cérémonie se déroule finalement sans heurt. Le soleil est au zénith, la joie des habitants aussi.

Neuf ans ont passé. Nous sommes en 1913. Le monde vit dans l'ombre de la guerre ; Grover's Corners, dans celui, cousin, de la mort. Nous empruntons le chemin du cimetière. Madame Gibbs a été emportée par une pneumonie ; le jeune Webb, par une appendicite. Les morts dialoguent entre eux, puis se taisent. Un convoi mortuaire se forme : le village enterre la malheureuse Emily, décédée en mettant son second enfant au monde. Son mari est dévasté. La jeune femme se réveille et refuse d'admettre son entrée au royaume des morts. Elle obtient du narrateur la grâce de revivre une journée, celle de son douzième anniversaire. Dévastée par la nostalgie et la conscience de ne pas avoir suffisament profité de son existence, Emily se rallonge en silence dans sa tombe.

Par cette oeuvre, Thornton Wilder renvoie les spectateurs à leur expérience personnelle de la vie. Nous sommes les Gibbs et les Webb, nous sommes George et Emily, nous vivons à Grover's Corner. Nos journées se déroulent dans une uniformité insouciante. Quelques moments exceptionnels ponctuent ce déroulé, conditionné en partie par notre famille, en partie par notre caractère. Petites joies, petites peines, petits espoirs, petites déceptions, avant que le malheur imprévisible vienne frapper à notre porte et nous transcende. Nous étions les acteurs d'une chronique, nous voilà devenus acteurs d'une tragédie. Nous tutoyons les héros des mythes grecs, tant notre désespoir est immense, tant nous sentons peser sur nos épaules le joug implacable du Destin. L'effroi nous envahit et comme Emily, comme Iphigénie, nous pleurons les temps heureux révolus. Thornton Wilder nous le recommande, comme les Antiques et en conclusion : profitons du jour !
