"Grace Kelly gets award in midst of Press Hubbub" by Charlotte Lubin. Clip from THE TEMPLE UNIVERSITY NEWS - Philadelphia, P.A., March 2, 1955.

"My first love was the theatre and I guess I have been biased toward it ever since".

(...)

"For a while, Miss Kelly was afraid she was being type-cast into the role of "English wife" in her movie roles. Her finishing school accent and precise manners make her a natural for this part. Now she feels she has gotten away from this, and her parts recently varied". "Miss Kelly doesn't know what her next picture will be. She recently turned down a Western script in which she could co-star with Spencer Tracy".

(...)

"Her studio keeps her busy, but Miss Kelly still finds time to do charitable work. She is on the national board of the Women's Medical College in Philadelphia, does tape recordings for the Heart Fund and works with the Sister Kenny group, besides doing shows and appearances for various benefits. As a co-chairman of the Committee for the Multiple Sclerosis drive she went to Washington yesterday to have lunch with Mamie Eisenhower, who is honorary chairman of the MS drive".

(...)

"Miss Kelly had been busy the past week moving out of her three rooms apartment in New York, where she has lived for four years, into a larger one".

we've all seen the (fanon) process of the hollow knight going fully/partially blind due to the infection, however... consider the inverse

"Wow, you're so self-aware! It takes most people years of therapy and dedication to get to that point." Thanks, I constantly feel completely disconnected from my physical being and the material sensation of my body, brain, and spirit/soul is so overwhelming that I often have to see myself as an objective third-party instead of an integrated entity. Father son holy spirit and all that.

After Ody gets home and, of course, slaughters all the suitors and reunites with his wife and son, that man absolutely sat down with a council and immediately pulled out schematics, like:

"Cool, cool. So, first things first: We're building new temples for Athena and Hermes. What? Placement? Oh, yeah... Just knock down the Poseidon one. It's fine. I stabbed that God, like, 20 times into submission. Pretty sure that means the ocean is my b*tch now....And f*ck that guy anyways, am I right? So, for Athena's temple, I'm definitely thinking blue✨-"

今の時期は取材に行ってもつい子鹿ちゃんばかり撮ってしまうので、アップも自ずと子鹿まみれになりがち･･なので合間に少し前の子鹿ちゃん以外の写��を。

この日は良く晴れて、澄んだ空気とそれに交わるクリアな光がとても綺麗でした。

Me, before playing Honest Hearts: I've left the Mormon church because I was unable to reconcile the Plan of Salvation doctrine, which honestly supports and validates the existence of trans and non-binary people if anything, with the Church's stance on trans and non-binary people. I have complicated feelings about it and I'm unsure how I identify religiously, which is complicated by the fact that I converted to Mormonism of my own choice when I was in my early 20's, but I still believe the teachings to be mostly true at their core, and I hope that the Church comes around one day and changes their stance on LGBTQ+ people so I can maybe re-join. Me, after playing Honest Hearts for the first time: oh my god I was in a cult.

Joint US-Egypt Archaeology Team Unearths 4,000-Year-Old Tomb in Luxor

11 coffins for men, women and children found inside necropolis, suggesting it was a family tomb.

Archeologists from Egypt and the United States unearthed an ancient tomb with 11 sealed burials near the famed city of Luxor, Egyptian authorities said in a statement Friday.

Egypt’s Tourism and Antiquities Ministry said that the tomb, which dates back to the Middle Kingdom (1938 BCE-1630 BCE), was found in the South Asasif necropolis, next to the Temple of Hatshepsut on the Nile’s West Bank in Luxor.

The joint Egyptian-American mission excavating the necropolis found coffins for men, women and children, suggesting that it was a family tomb used for generations during the 12th Dynasty and the beginning of the 13th Dynasty, said Mohamed Ismail Khaled, Secretary-General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities in Egypt.

He said ancient floods destroyed most of the burials’ wooden coffins and linen wrappings.

However, some items such as jewelry in women’s burials were found intact, including a finely crafted necklace with 30 amethyst beads and two cylindrical agate beads framing a hippo-head amulet, according to the statement.

Katherine Blakeney, chief American archeologist with the South Asasif Conservation Project, said they found two copper mirrors, one with a lotus-shaped handle, and the second with a unique design of Hathor, goddess of the sky, women, fertility and love in ancient Egypt.

According to a statement from the South Asasif Conservation Project, directed by Dr. Elena Pischikova, this find is the first Middle Kingdom tomb found in the area.

The project’s statement referenced several finds, including a green-blue glazed faience fertility figurine with truncated legs, decorated with jewelry markings on the legs and torso, and a square-shaped offering tray with relief representations of a bull’s head, a loaf of bread and other offerings.

In the 11 discovered burials, team member Dr. Afaf Wahba identified the skeletons of five women, two men and three children. Six of the individuals — primary females — were interred with burial assemblages.
