The Stakebait Coterie! Khloe and her boys are out there saving the Atlanta Waterbloods or get Final Death'd trying! (I'll type it all beneath the cut because I know.. my handwriting)

The main characters of the Poisoned Peach - ATL by Night chronicle my beloved is running for me! Khloe is my character, and the boys are my unbeatably dope team.

Name: Khloe Mariah Osbourne

Born: 05/04/1993, Embraced: 2022 by a Ventrue, came out Thinblood, Physical Age: 29

Height: 5'5", Hair: Dark Brown, Eyes: Hazel, Gender: Miss (She/Her), Nationality: American

Likes: Coffee, True Crime, Tabletop RPGs, Being a Minx, Staying Busy

Dislikes: Disappointing Others, Being Unprepared, Not knowing what's up, Her body, Tiktok-Style Ads

A little history: Khloe grew up the only child of very normal people who nastily divorced when she graduated high school. An avid reader and over-thinker, Khloe has immersed herself in many fantasy worlds and strategy games to the point where she seems to think of everything. A people pleaser who has a lot of good acquaintances yet no friends, the lack of companionship was hard-felt when COVID rolled around and kept everyone inside. Had a few partners, though none lasted. One night after visiting her mother, she found herself on a backroad all alone, save for the oncoming headlights that may be straying in her lane. (Where the Poisoned Peach begins!)

Name: Kyle Johnson

Born: 2/3/1994, Embraced: 2020, Sire unknown, but came out Thinblood, Physical Age: 26

Height: 5’10", Hair: N/A, Eyes: Sexy-Boy Brown, Gender: More man than your man (He/Him), Nationality: American

Likes: Feeling needed and helping others, Parties, Drinking cocktails with stupid names, Reasonable reactions.

Dislikes: Being late, people that CAN help and just don't, the MINIONS, Improperly labelled content warnings.

History: His mom was a nurse, her mom was a nurse, and so on. His sisters didn’t want to carry on the tradition, so he decided to go into the medical field himself as an EMT. The stress of the job brought on early balding, but he thrived both on the clock and in the club. One night, he drank a few too many and he woke up in a dumpster the next night, completely clueless. The sunlight began to hurt, nothing sat right in his stomach. Everything was the same yet all so different, better and worse. He spiraled, confused and depressed, until the Dusk Angel found him and helped him come to terms with his new existence. Now Kyle proudly helps the Thinblood Revolution as a kind face to help ease the new blood in, just as he had been.

Name: Randolph "Ralph" Gaylord King III

Born: 10/09/1996, Embraced: 2021 by a Nosferatu, came out Thinblood, Physical Age: 25

Height: 6'5" (Even pre-Embrace, him just big), Hair: Brown (Has to shave the remnants every evening, used to be long and thick and in a man-bun), Eyes: Yellow-Orange (Brown pre-Embrace), Gender: BOI (He/Him), Nationality: American

Likes: Guns, Bad Jokes, Strategy Games, Annoying Christian, Being a right menace

Dislikes: Himself :(, Whiny people, Beer, Signs with sayings meant to be taken serious.

Some Background: Born in St. Louis Missouri, Ralph had a pretty standard lower middle class upbringing. He followed his father and older brother and joined the army when he turned 18 right out of high school. Years of prep and hard work paid off as he went through candidate courses, eventually making it into Special Forces. His career was short-lived however after losing his right foot on his first deployment. Depression and dead-end jobs seemed to be his future until as a joke he started posting thirst-traps on social media, but it got real when his follower count spiked and sponsors started making offers. He was thrown into the life of an Insta-Thot - specifically Fitness Inspo - ultimately landing him in a party in Atlanta, Georgia, where his soon to be sire, Bill - a jealous and spiteful Nosferatu - lurked. Ralph was alone as he stumbled to his hotel room, and Bill could contain his hate no longer. To him, Ralph deserved to be as ugly on the outside as Bill thought he had to be on the inside. Little did Bill know, he messed with the wrong guy.

(Not written due to lack of room, we clearly don't play favorites here...) Eventually found in the sewers by the Dusk Angel, Ralph now serves in the Thinblood revolution, using every skill he's acquired in order to get revenge against the Fullbloods.

Name: Christian Ottavio

Born: 01/16/1989, Embraced: 2017, Gangrel sire but came out Thinblood, Physical Age: A rough 28

Height: 6'1", Hair: Dark Brown, Eyes: Brown, Gender: The MAN (He/Him), Nationality: American

Likes: Beer, Relaxing nights spent inside, Napping, His truck

Dislikes: His family, Wearing tight jeans, Bro-Country music, Fullbloods

A bit of background: Born and bred in Georgia into a rich family with ideals he couldn't wrap his head around. Went into the workforce at a young age in an effort to escape them and be on his own. He's had to sleep in his truck many a night, but eventually got everything together enough to get a roof over his head. That was until some uppity lick decided to draft him into the army of the damned during the Atlanta Sabbat civil war. He was one of many forced to fight during the schism, and one of the few to come out "alive." Before his sire could take him behind the proverbial tool shed, Christian was saved by the Dusk Angel, and now is a proud Thinblood freedom fighter.

TRIGGERS: death, plane crash, depression, survivor’s guilt

P A S T  →

sarabeth’s life is filled with a lot of shiny things. from the silver that is constantly polished, marble banisters that always have a certain glint to them, the chandeliers that always seem to dance in the light, and the most important one of all: the diamonds. the walton-rowe ltd. is a huge player in the mining business; be it oil, ores containing copper, silver, and gold, and at the core center of the business itself is the diamond. the most prominent product of walton-rowe’s mines.

it all started when henry rowe, a british businessman, founded rowe mining corporation in the 1800s, becoming one of the major owners of diamond mines such as the de beers, rowe mining’s major competitor and the parameter of all diamond companies in the future are measured. the  companies were competing healthily and both continued to become a billion-dollar company until the great depression hit. while an advertising campaign saved the de beers from destitute, a marriage was what saved the rowe mining co.

abraham rowe and margaret walton’s marriage brought upon the strongest joint venture in history, the merge between rowe mining co. and john walton inc, creating walton-rowe ltd. john walton inc. was a mining company whose focus was to mine for ores containing copper, silver, and gold and they also had oil drilling mines across the world. john walton inc. funded the entire operations of rowe mining’s diamond ventures, who was also benefited by piggybacking the de beer’s advertising campaign and abraham and margaret’s own brilliant strategic business planning. now, diamonds are the main venture for walton-rowe ltd.’s business.

reginald walton-rowe is the sole heir of the company. reginald was not the typical rich boy whose face would appear in tabloids every week with a girl by his side. he did everything right; graduated summa cum laude from wharton business school, earned his mba in stanford with a 4.0 gpa, took on the family business right after university, and have stayed away from being featured in sleazy tabloids looking to build controversies around him, because his life was clean from the common rich bachelor vices such as women, booze, drugs, gambling, and more.

his entire life changed when he met ophelia, however. a spontaneous, smart, and ambitious jet-setting heiress of the american luxury hotel and resorts company, the sullinger group. she had many connections and friends across the globe; some tabloids even reported a boyfriend in each continent for every time she visits, but whether that was true or not remained unknown by the public. while reginald had his entire life planned, ophelia was the type to roll with the punches, going with where life leads her and improvise to achieve her ambitions. she brought a whole new meaning to reginald’s carefully-planned life, essentially throwing his manual out the window and showing him a whole new world.

the couple were married in an extravagant wedding in lake como, italy. a few years later, they were gifted with a beautiful baby girl, sarabeth orla cordelia walton-rowe. but pregnancy was not the easiest thing that ophelia went through. ophelia had two miscarriages before they finally had sarabeth, and even then the journey was rough; it started with an increasingly tough phase of morning sickness to the point that ophelia was barely able to keep anything down so she had to be injected with an iv every other week. then, she was bedridden for the entire last trimester of the pregnancy, she had to undergo an emergency c-section, and recovery was a tough road. this added to the love ophelia and reginald had for their only daughter.

reginald and ophelia walton-rowe’s whole world revolved around sarabeth. she entered the best schools, had the best tutors, and was allowed to explore any hobby she liked. piano, painting, ballet, gymnastics, violin, and even origami for a few months. sarabeth was allowed to take a fashion course after school when she was sixteen for an entire year and then interned for vogue when she was seventeen.

sarabeth acquired many skills in her pocket, but her true calling was becoming a businesswoman just like her mother and her father. sarabeth had a knack for business; able to sell whatever products was given her way, and she was able to build connections and she had a lot of friends. a lot of people were jealous, of course, of the girl who was spoiled even more than british royalty.

every holiday, sarabeth would go to a different country and bring home many interesting stories of skiing at the alps or staying in a yacht in the french riviera, getting to take a photo with the winner of the monaco grand prix, and more. every fashion season, sarabeth would own pieces even before they were available in store, even had haute couture pieces designed just for her. she was a regular attendee of fashion weeks ever since she turned twenty-one.

like her father, she graduated magna cum laude from wharton business school and an mba at harvard. she had ambitions and goals, and she worked hard to achieve them. but, like her mother, sarabeth was spontaneous and gregarious. she had friends from all over the world with various occupations––actors, models, businesswomen, businessmen, lawyers, hoteliers, even doctors. life was perfect for sarabeth. even a pimple was a rare issue for the girl, not that it does not happen.

that was until three years ago, when a plane crash on their private jet killed both her parents on way back from london to new york for christmas. sarabeth was not on the plane with them, although she was supposed to be. sarabeth was in paris for fashion week, of which she was a regular attendee. but after one of her best friends went to labor early, the socialite decided to stay another day instead of joining her parents in london, and would fly back to new york on her own. she was supposed to be in the flight that killed her parents.

she was about to board the private jet when she heard of the tragedy. her security detail escorted her back to the hotel, where sarabeth spent the next five days as search parties tried to recover her parents’ remains. the funeral and the wake went by quickly, and although sarabeth managed the best possible smile she could for the guests, every single person there knew that a part of her died along with her parents.

the will-reading came after that. the whole walton-rowe and sullinger family came to the event––ophelia’s siblings and reginald’s cousins mainly––anticipating that they will get a share of what reginald and ophelia had. alas, the entire ownership of walton-rowe’s estate, money, investments, and the walton-rowe company was left to their only daughter, even forty percent of the walton-rowe’s share of the sullinger group, making sarabeth the owner of the largest share of the company.

this created the classic family feud over money. all of them aimed their deadly stares at the girl they thought was just another pretty blonde girl who knows nothing about running a business as large as walton-rowe and the sullinger group. sarabeth was bombarded with aunts and uncles who tried to make her renounce the inheritance, insensitive of her grief. that was when randolph walton-rowe, sarabeth’s grandfather who decided to return from retirement and come to new york all the way from london, stepped in. keeping sarabeth’s aunts, uncles, and cousins who craved for the inheritance at bay, allowing sarabeth to run away to paris, the city she found solace in when she heard of her parents’ death.

for an entire year, the girl stayed in the penthouse at george v and avoided every part of the family’s drama. she found the time to deal with her own grief, depression, and the most painful one of all, the survivor’s guilt.

sarabeth attended therapy sessions, did exercises, hung out more with her friends as per her therapist’s prescriptions, and even tried to be more involved in the company she was supposed to be running. one year later, sarabeth was able to not cry every time she was alone, but she also knew that sitting around at her house and going out on brunches or parties would not help. as long as her mind is not preoccupied, it allows the memory of her parents and the guilt she felt to creep back in to her mind. she was not going to let that happen. that was how she decided that she needed to get back to the states.

sarabeth needed to run her empire, to prove the people who underestimated her wrong, but most importantly, she wanted nothing more than to get her original stride back. she wanted to work, to do something with her life instead of just laying around feeling miserable and wasting time.

it has been two years since sarabeth first came back to the states and started to become more involved in the legacy her parents left her. sarabeth had focused more on walton-rowe when she returned; after all, the company was left without a ceo. she focused on restructuring the company, eliminating personnels she knew to have no good intentions, people her father had always wanted to eliminate. she recruited a number of young people into her team, people who bring a new perspective into the company who desperately needed to approach the business world in a new light––a light where businesses need to keep up with the ever-growing and ever-changing trends of the world––and a fresh new perspective.

P R E S E N T  →

it started with sarabeth realizing that walton-rowe needed a face to connect with the people who bought their diamonds. of course, ever since it started, walton-rowe had always been a supplier of diamonds to large jewelry stores such as harry winston, tiffany & co., and cartier. it exclusively collaborated with renowned jewelers for the people who are willing to pay more for a custom-designed piece of jewelry exclusively from the walton-rowe house. but sarabeth knew that simply making exclusive collections for people who can afford it is not enough to ensure that walton-rowe will remain a powerful game-changer in the business––and the only way to do that is for their brand to have a face––to allow not just the rich 1% of the world’s population be able to afford their diamonds, but anyone who can afford the most beautiful declaration of love.

sarabeth opened walton-rowe’s first flagship jewelry boutique on fifth avenue called ophelia by walton-rowe, with customers pouring in to take in the beautiful collection that has been advertised and teased for months. sales continued to skyrocket, with celebrities becoming the face of the advertisement and the brand ambassadors. even with prices given at a discount, and random lucky customers treated into getting a jewelry more than their budget, letting the fame of the new walton-rowe jewels to spread like wildfire through word-of-mouth and of course through the digital world, the most effective method of advertisement today.

however, even with ophelia gaining so much popularity, the scrutiny sarabeth continued to heighten; either jealousy or the fact that they are in denial that the young businesswoman was actually capable, but either way they continued to undermine sarabeth’s ability––blinded by her age, her lack of experience, and maybe even her gender.

but the excitement of the new venture is not the only thing keeping sarabeth busy. new developments have emerged from her parents’ plane crash to prove that it was not an accident at all. evidence suggests that her parents’ planes were rigged to plummet the way it did. recordings from the black box that was finally discovered indicated that the pilots knew the private jet was rigged as soon as the whole system started to break down.

with her inheritance and the connections she has, sarabeth hired a private investigator to help the fbi with the case that would crack the mystery of who was behind the death of her parents and ensured that everything is kept in secret; only between her, her security detail, and the fbi. her heart was set to find the people responsible and make sure the receive the consequences.

Her Prophet Speaks: The Six Mothers of The Sisterhood

~I had been planing on an essay about how these six women laid the foundations of The Sisterhood, but it has proved to be a daunting task. And I need to get the first edition of the Liber published. So I'm punting.

I'll write said essay for a later edition. For now, here is the opening text from their respective Wikis with links to same...

Shulamith "Shulie" Firestone (January 7, 1945 – August 28, 2012)[2] was a Canadian-American radical feminist. A central figure in the early development of radical feminism and second-wave feminism, Firestone was a founding member of three radical-feminist groups: New York Radical Women, Redstockings, and New York Radical Feminists.

In 1970, Firestone authored The Dialectic of Sex: The Case for Feminist Revolution. Published in September of that year, the book became an influential feminist text.[3]Naomi Wolf said of the book in 2012: "No one can understand how feminism has evolved without reading this radical, inflammatory, second-wave landmark."

Donna J. Haraway (born September 6, 1944) is an American Professor Emerita in the History of Consciousness Department and Feminist Studies Department at the University of California, Santa Cruz, United States.[1] She is a prominent scholar in the field of science and technology studies, described in the early 1990s as a "feminist, rather loosely a postmodernist".[2] Haraway is the author of numerous foundational books and essays that bring together questions of science and feminism, such as "A Cyborg Manifesto: Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century" (1985) and "Situated Knowledges: The Science Question in Feminism and the Privilege of Partial Perspective" (1988).[3][4] She is also a leading scholar in contemporary ecofeminism, associated with post-humanism and new materialism movements.[5][6] Her work criticizes anthropocentrism, emphasizes the self-organizing powers of nonhuman processes, and explores dissonant relations between those processes and cultural practices, rethinking sources of ethics.[7]

Haraway has taught Women's Studies and the History of Science at the University of Hawaii and Johns Hopkins University. Haraway's works have contributed to the study of both human-machine and human-animal relations. Her works have sparked debate in primatology, philosophy, and developmental biology.[8] Haraway participated in a collaborative exchange with the feminist theorist Lynn Randolph from 1990 to 1996. Their engagement with specific ideas relating to feminism, technoscience, political consciousness, and other social issues, formed the images and narrative of Haraway's book Modest_Witness for which she received the Society for Social Studies of Science's (4S) Ludwik Fleck Prize in 1999.[9][10] In September 2000, Haraway was awarded the Society for Social Studies of Science's highest honor, the J. D. Bernal Award, for her "distinguished contributions" to the field.[11] Haraway serves on the advisory board for numerous academic journals, including differences, Signs: Journal of Women in Culture and Society, Contemporary Women's Writing, and Environmental Humanities.

Andrea Rita Dworkin (September 26, 1946 – April 9, 2005) was an American radical feminist and writer best known for her criticism of pornography, which she argued was linked to rape and other forms of violence against women. Her views were widely criticized by liberal feminists and others. At the same time, she maintained a dialogue with political conservatives, and wrote a topically related book, Right-Wing Women. After suffering abuse from her first husband, she was introduced to radical feminist literature, and began writing Woman Hating.

After moving to New York, she became an activist and a writer on several issues, eventually publishing 10 books on feminism.

During the late 1970s and 1980s, Dworkin became known as a spokeswoman for the feminist anti-pornography movement, and for her writing on pornography and sexuality, particularly Pornography: Men Possessing Women (1981) and Intercourse (1987), which remain her two most widely known books. She wrote on pornography from a feminist perspective and in opposition to obscenity law, and she worked with Women Against Pornography and Linda Boreman. She considered the pornography industry to be based on turning women into objects for abuse by men. Dworkin and Catharine MacKinnon developed a legislative approach based on civil rights rather than obscenity to outlaw pornography and allow lawsuits against pornographers for damages, but their efforts were largely unsuccessful. She testified at a federal commission against pornography, leading some stores to withdraw certain magazines from sale, but a court ruled the government's efforts unconstitutional. Critics argued that no causal relationship between pornography and harm to women had been found. In 1992, a Canadian court adapted parts of Dworkin and MacKinnon's theory on sex equality, although Dworkin opposed parts of the court's view. Some sex-positive feminists criticized Dworkin's views as censorious and as denying women's agency or choice in sexual relationships, leading to the so-called feminist sex wars.

Her book Intercourse, which addresses the role of sexual intercourse in society, has been interpreted as opposing all heterosexual intercourse, but Dworkin said it does not and that what she was against was male domination by intercourse. Some critics of Dworkin accused her of supporting incest, and she sued for defamation, but a court did not forbid the criticism. She subsequently wrote much in opposition to incest. She wrote some fiction, some of which was held for a time by Canadian customs authorities before it was released, giving rise to a controversy over whether her support for antipornography law had led to the seizure of her own work. When she said she was drugged and raped in a hotel in 1999, controversy over the truth of the allegations followed. In her later years, she suffered from severe osteoarthritis, which limited her mobility. She died of acute myocarditis at the age of 58.

Catharine Alice MacKinnon (born October 7, 1946) is an American radical feminist legal scholar. She is the Elizabeth A. Long Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School, where she has been tenured since 1990, and the James Barr Ames Visiting Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. From 2008 to 2012, she was the special gender adviser to the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court.[1][2]

As an expert on international law, constitutional law, political and legal theory, and jurisprudence, MacKinnon focuses on women's rights and sexual abuse and exploitation, including sexual harassment, rape, prostitution, sex trafficking and pornography. She was among the first to argue that pornography is a civil rights violation, and that sexual harassment in education and employment constitutes sex discrimination.[1][3]

MacKinnon is the author of over a dozen books, including Sexual Harassment of Working Women (1979);[4]Feminism Unmodified (1987), described as "one of the most widely cited books on law in the English language";[5]Toward a Feminist Theory of the State (1989); Only Words (1993); a casebook, Sex Equality (2001 and 2007); Women's Lives, Men's Laws (2005); and Butterfly Politics (2017).

Susannah Bright, also known as Susie Sexpert (born March 25, 1958), is an American feminist, author, journalist, critic, editor, publisher, producer, and performer, often on the subject of sexual politics and sexuality.[1]

She is one of the first writers/activists referred to as a sex-positive feminist.[2] Her papers are part of the Human Sexuality Collection at Cornell University Library along with the archives of On Our Backs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susie_Bright

Valerie Jean Solanas (April 9, 1936 – April 25, 1988) was an American radical feminist and author best known for writing the SCUM Manifesto, which she self-published in 1967, and attempting to murder Andy Warhol in 1968.

Solanas had a turbulent childhood. She said her father regularly sexually abused her and she had a volatile relationship with her mother and stepfather after her parents' divorce. She was sent to live with her grandparents but ran away after being physically abused by her alcoholic grandfather. Solanas came out as a lesbian in the 1950s. After graduating with a degree in psychology from the University of Maryland, College Park, Solanas relocated to Berkeley, California, where she began writing her most notable work, the SCUM Manifesto, which urged women to "overthrow the government, eliminate the money system, institute complete automation and eliminate the male sex".[1][2]

Solanas moved to New York City in the mid-1960s. She met pop artist Andy Warhol and asked him to produce her play Up Your Ass. She gave him her script, which she later accused him of losing or stealing. After Solanas demanded financial compensation for the lost script, Warhol hired her to perform in his film, I, a Man, paying her $25. In 1967, Solanas began self-publishing the SCUM Manifesto. Olympia Press owner Maurice Girodias offered to publish Solanas's future writings, and she understood the contract to mean that Girodias would own her writing. Convinced that Girodias and Warhol were conspiring to steal her work, Solanas purchased a gun in early 1968.

On June 3, 1968, she went to The Factory, where she found Warhol. She shot at Warhol three times, the first two shots missing and the third wounding Warhol. She also shot art critic Mario Amaya and attempted to shoot Warhol's manager, Fred Hughes, point blank, but the gun jammed. Solanas then turned herself in to the police. She was charged with attempted murder, assault, and illegal possession of a gun. She was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and pleaded guilty to "reckless assault with intent to harm", serving a three-year prison sentence, including treatment in a psychiatric hospital. After her release, she continued to promote the SCUM Manifesto. She died in 1988 of pneumonia in San Francisco.

The Sisterhood is not in total alignment with the philosophies/ideologies of these six women. In fact a few of them might reject SH in whole or in part. But without their work, SH would not, likely could not, exist.

A musical notion of writing — the hope that the ear could be trained to “hear” errors and imitate quality prose — has developed as a well-liked alternative among English teachers. But what about those college students, sometimes low income, with few books at home, who battle to move from studying a gorgeous sentence to realizing how to jot down one? Might there be a greater, much less soul-crushing method to enforce the basics? In her trainer coaching classes, Dr. Hochman of the Writing Revolution exhibits a slide of a cute little woman, lying contentedly on her stomach as she scrawls on a bit of composition paper. It’s the type of inventory photograph that has in all probability appeared in a hundred educators’ PowerPoint shows, meant to evoke a heat and relaxed studying atmosphere, maybe in one of the cozy writing nooks favored by the process-oriented writing gurus. “This shouldn't be good writing posture! ” Dr. Hochman exclaimed. Small youngsters should write at desks, she believes. Fractions are like decimals as a result of they are all elements of wholes. Fractions are like decimals, however they're written in another way. Fractions are like decimals, so that they can be used interchangeably. Along the way in which, college students are learning to recall significant content material from math, social research, science and literature. By center faculty, teachers ought to be crafting essay questions that prompt subtle writing; not “What have been the events main up to the Civil Conflict? ” — which could lead to a listing — but “Trace the occasions leading up to the Civil Conflict,” which requires a historical narrative of cause and effect. “Freewriting, hoping that children will learn or gain a love of writing, hasn’t labored,” Dr. Hochman told the teachers, many of whom work in low-revenue neighborhoods.

The Ripper of Nocturne City

The rain was coming down hard from the overcast skies that covered Nocturne City like a funeral shroud. Emily Weston was desperately trying to run from awning to awning to avoid the rain. She was a pretty young thing, lovely brown hair that matched her dark brown eyes. She had gotten a late supper and coffee at The Java Jive, only for it to start raining. The radio weatherman said it was supposed to last all night, and she simply had to get to her room at the hotel before morning. She frantically scurried to another awning, but was disappointed to see there were no more in sight. A tall man wearing a tailored suit, overcoat, and fedora walked by. He had an umbrella which was effortlessly repelling the rain. He turned on his heels and walked back. She got a closer look. He was handsome, with pale green eyes full of intelligence and kindness, and a young, angular face.  "Well well well, this is some dreadful weather we're having, isn't it? It's not fit for a dog. And you seem to have misplaced your umbrella." The man drawled in a smooth Southern accent, clearly a native.

She chuckled and said, "Why yes, yes I'm afraid I have." 

 The man smiled warmly and said "We could share mine if you like. Do you live far from here?"

"Oh no, I'm staying at The Hotel V8, a few blocks south of here."

"Allow me to escort you then ma'am. Dr. William Greyson, at your service miss." He said with a slight, chivalrous bow. 

"Oh, why thank you very much sir!” After a moment, she realized she had been awfully rude. “Where are my manners! You're being a gracious soul in escorting me to my room and you don't even know my name! I’m, I'm Emily Weston. Thank you for walking me to my room."

"Oh, but you're most welcome ma'am. I'm simply bein' a good Southern gentleman.”

Emily smiled. “So, what are you a doctor of?” “I am a doctor of psychology. Graduated from Miskatonic University up north.” 

 “Really? I'm from Arkham, pass by Miskatonic every day on the way to work!"

William smiled and said “Yes, really.” He thought for a moment. “It's ferociously cold up there, isn't it? Much like this bone-chilling rain. Tell me Mrs. Weston, do you like coffee? Would you care to come to my office for some, to dispel the chill from our bones before we continue on our way to your hotel? It's just down the street." They continued talking as they walked into the night.

The next morning Emily Weston was found dead in a dimly lit alleyway. Her face bore an eerie rictus-like grin, with a crimson slash from a knife across her throat. Both arteries in the throat had been cut, ensuring a quick, albeit still painful, death. The original single slash had been turned into a spider web-like pattern of small cuts, inflicted post-mortem, like all the other carvings. Her arms had intricate patterns of overlapping double helix's cut into them with art-like attention to detail, her hands crossed across her chest, her pale fingertips touching her delicate shoulders, left untouched, while her chest bore a series of 5 overlapping diamonds. Her formerly rosy cheeks had flowers cut into them. Even the blood stains on the ground had been manipulated into intricate geometric patterns of lines and circles. Every carving had art-like attention to detail, not a single cut out of place to offset the eerie symmetry. 

Dr. William Greyson sat at his glass-topped desk, sipping his fifth cup of coffee and reading the Nocturne City Chronicle to the sound of Nocturne City Classical Radio, his long fingers perusing the paper with an amused smirk on his face. His work of art had made front-page news. He was proud he had gathered so much publicity, even if he could never claim his work as his. The psychiatrist folded up his newspaper, as his first patient of the day was due in twenty-five minutes. Mr. Randolph Carter, a paranoid man who also suffered from hallucinations; a rather sad case really, but he was slowly making progress.  He set the paper down on the desk. The headline loudly proclaimed, “RIPPER CLAIMS TWELFTH VICTIM; POLICE TO MAKE STATEMENT!”

A Tale of Two Cities

In over the past decade, the city of Richmond, VA, the hometown of my birth and maturation,  has seen what has often been described as a sea-change in its reputation and cultural texture. The capital city having been the political epicenter of Virginia for nearly 240 years and the once capital city of the confederacy during the succession of southern states from the union, has in recent years been seen as one of the chief cities in the growing cosmopolitanism of the south (I argue that Virginia is more mid-Atlantic...but that’s for another time). I remember vividly the Richmond of my youth, when it was it was considered something of an expanded rest stop for those traveling either north to Washington D.C. and beyond, or those traveling South to Virginia Beach or down and past the Carolinas. It was a city whose chief claim to fame was once its Civil War rich “legacy”, the history of the trolleys and streetcars, and it’s sprawling neighborhoods (of which it’s redlined background is public knowledge). I was born and raised in Gilpin Court, a public housing complex north of the James River, in an area known as Jackson Ward, which at the height of its powers in the early twentieth century was known to many by such superlatives as “The Harlem of the South” or “The Birthplace of Black Capitalism”. This was due to the role in which African Americans, both working class and prominent, played in the development of a bustling and successful neighborhood at a time when Blacks were maligned at every turn as a matter of American “normalcy”. The community boasted such influential figures as banking magnate Maggie L. Walker, entertainer Bill “Bojangles” Robinson,  publisher John Mitchell, and Booker T. Washington’s pupil and famous lawyer Jackson W. Giles. Further, throughout its most formative years Jackson Ward was the city’s entertainment hub for not only Black patrons but for whites from across town as well, as acts such as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Lena Horne, Duke Ellington, Cab Calloway, Nat King Cole, and James Brown (among others) frequently performed at the Hippodrome Theatre and stayed at the Black owned Eggleston Hotel, both on 2nd Street or “The Deuce” as it was known at the time. However, by the time that I was born in 1985, it was President Ronald Reagan’s second term in office, the crack epidemic was at its height, and the neighborhood once known for Black excellence had become a shell of its former self. This was in no small part due to President Eisenhower’s Interstate Highway Program of the 1950’s that only 35 years prior began cutting through the neighborhood clearing out once prosperous areas, combining with redlining policies that tanked housing prices and encouraged institutional and individual neglect of Black communities, and subsequently creating vacuums of poverty, many of which last until this day. The Gilpin Court/Jackson Ward of my childhood then, was one that was at once filled with love though existing within the prevailing economic struggles and violent epidemics of the times. Further, it didn’t help that federal policies made it so that police were given license to wage all out war on Black communities via the narrative of crack as a criminal rather than public health matter. It wasn’t uncommon to for police stop by one’s home under the guise of community involvement (only when I would become old enough to understand would I come to realize these were just illegal searches of the homes of friends and family…) but because of the violence of the period it wasn’t uncommon for otherwise reasonable people to carry weapons. (my mother and sister once both owned guns due the the rash of break ins that occurred due to addicts attempting to feed the habit). It was during this era and the subsequent 90’s that Richmond was considered a city to stay away from. Wars concentrated mostly in poor Black neighborhoods were the constant source of angst for citizens, community leaders, and local politicians downtown. Further, City Hall had its own troubles as charges of mismanagement of funds were rampant and one of its own council members publicly battled heroin addiction. The peak of the violence was the year of 1994 which saw one of the highest homicide rates in the city’s history including one of its most noted massacres when in October of 1994 Christopher Goins a small time hustler, murdered the entire family of his unborn child’s mother, a then 14 year old Tameka Jones. James Randolph 35, Daphne Jones 29 (Tameka’s mother), and her younger sister Nicole Jones 9, and her little brothers David Jones 4, and Robert Jones 3, were all brutally slaughtered when Goins walked into the Gilpin Court apartment and emptied his Glock 45 throughout the home. In the process Tameka was also shot but survived only because her unborn child took the majority of the bullets dying in utero. Her youngest sister, Kenya, was shot in the arm, but survived as well. All taking place up the street from where I lived at the time, remember the cold and rainy October day. In third grade I remember hearing over the PA system that Nicole had passed and I remember hearing Mrs. Hatcher, one of the many teachers at Carver Elementary, attempting to dedicate a song over the the intercom as her voice trembled audibly fighting back tears. This was also the decade that saw the murder of Harold Marsh, a prominent lawyer, judge, and brother of the city’s first Black mayor and civil rights icon Henry Marsh. With this and other senseless crimes,  measures were taken to sweep the streets of weapons via Project Exile, a program championed by then Mayor Tim Kaine (who to be clear was a great mayor with a history before politics of fighting against housing discrimination and redlining) which vouched a mandatory five year sentence for those caught with illegal handguns. While the efforts at reducing crime were in part a response to the surge of violence in the 1990’s this program alone did little to address the fundamental causes of poverty and its adjacent symptom, crime. Still, toward the end of the 1990’s and into the new millennium, Richmond was proclaiming itself to be a city on the move, and looking to expand its tax base by attracting more businesses, and professional residents. Part in parcel of this move would be accomplished through the re-imaging of the city, which meant less focus on reporting crime and more focus on reporting development, not to mention the advent of Virginia Commonwealth University’s expanded involvement in the community at large. Students of the urban campus would bring about the youth and hip appeal to the surrounding neighborhoods that were at the time just in the genesis of reeling from decades of neglect. The hope was that those students would graduate to careers in the city that would have them stay as permanent citizens creating a new revenue base. Further, the with the professional class and business interest of the city growing younger, the desire to re-migrate in closer proximity to the city began to grow and with this, in 2005 under the mayoral leadership of former Governor Douglas L. Wilder, Project Renaissance Richmond began in earnest. The combination of VCU’s expansion, in conjunction with developer interest in the neighborhoods of Jackson Ward, Carver, Church Hill, and Shockoe Bottom, brought business and private speculators and newly migrated residents to the fore. Meanwhile, lifelong residents watched as the neighborhoods they had known all of their lives changed before their eyes. While change was indeed welcome, a source of contention was whether or not the fruits of that change would be available for all residents, after all many of these communities were those with a history of being redlined, concentrated poverty, and crime. As speculators began to collect distressed property at discounted rates, this pace was exacerbated with the historic tax credit incentive available to all investors willing to seed capital in these abandoned enclaves. Existing residents, mostly African Americans without the access to capital nor the working knowledge of the markets, found themselves either selling properties below market value or being priced out as emerging service industries attracted new higher income residents. Meanwhile many of the adjacent public housing complexes most of which are end the east end of the city, continued to see much of the same crime as before albeit at lower rates than in the previous decade. As leaders both civic and entrepreneurial championed the city’s emerging growth and Virginia as a whole became recognized as one of the top states in the nation for new business, the poverty rate steadily climbed. Abandoned warehouses gave way to condominiums, boarded up and once condemned single family residences became recreations of homes from years past that combined charm with modern chic. Local industry began to flourish as well. In particular downtown’s finance and banking industry, the restaurant and hospitality sector, the medical industry, government, entertainment and nightlife, and most famously the beer brewing sector. In 2009 on the heels of the economic collapse of 2008 and the inauguration of the nation’s first African American president, Barack Obama, the administration of Mayor Dwight C. Jones was underway, and in the wake of this most historic time in history Richmonders like those of many other cities were both attempting to regain equilibrium from the effects of global financial collapse, and look to the future with some optimism. While the crash affected speculation of real estate briefly with a squeeze on lending, those most hurt by the crisis were those who lived in the inner city where jobs are scarce and when available are often low wage. Meanwhile development around Richmond’s emerging industries and real estate continued accelerate. VCU’s footprint on the whole of the downtown area as well as those of private business interest went as far as achieving the unsettling measure put forth by those within the corridors of City Hall and the GRTC (the city’s transit company), of re-routing buses to backstreets, as to clear the Broad Street artery of of the bustle that was to be found mostly from 2nd to 9th streets going eastbound. Such a measure appeared to many as a dog whistle to clearing the main thoroughfare of it mostly Black and working class citizens, as condominiums, art galleries, coffee shops, and boutiques took the place of former convenience stores and soul food restaurants. The paradox of this change was the reality of the city’s poverty rate which was found by 2014 to stand at 25%. While the business community and local politicians checked off victory boxes with every new contract to build enterprise and with every neighborhood gentrified to the benefit of a few, local schools, most of which cater to young African American children from struggling communities, crumbled under the weight of decades of infrastructural decay. Even as major (and even admirable) development of the downtown area continued to shape the rebranding of the city from Richmond to the more hip ‘RVA’, the same songs filled the the newswaves when it came to the underdevelopment of the cities most vulnerable communities, all the more problematic given the adjacency of such communities to what was often touted in theory (but not application) to be opportunity for all citizens. Fast forward to 2017, and one can see that on the one hand RVA has now become one of the faster growing cities in the nation, home to the number one public arts university in the nation in VCU as well as one of the top schools in medicine. There are no shortage of young future affluents promenading the corridors of Jackson Ward, Carver, Church Hill, and The Fan. And as art and beer has become the city’s signature staples, there have been no shortage of exhibits by emerging artist who have decided to stake their claim to RVA as their springboard into the white walls of the gallery. In much the way that Brooklyn in the 1980’s gave way to new and daring generation of artist, entrepreneurs, creatives, and visionaries, Richmond appears in many ways to be the new millennium's version of that direction. One problem: in 2017, the city is once again finding itself in the midst of one of its violent years. The prior year, 2016, saw the most homicides in a decade.  Concentrated per usual among mostly poor African American neighborhoods, those in the know continue to turn a blind eye to the links between systemic racism, poverty, and crime. Even as the East End, Northside, and Southside of town develop to the liking of tourist and the affluent, the larger question of the democratization of opportunity somehow evades those in positions of leadership. The Office of Community Wealth Building, an anti poverty task force started under Mayor Dwight Jones in 2015 and headed in part by U of R Professor Thad Williamson, was and is still a continuing effort to derail the effects of poverty. However with a budget estimated to be only worth 10 million dollars and with job creation at the center, however noble this cause it does little to address the vacuums of strife that exist, a direct result of federal, state, and local housing policies that were racist in their intent and quite frankly, successful in their intended outcome. The link between the city’s revival, despite all of its beauty and fanfare and beauty, cannot be separated from the insidious cycle of racialized urbanization. Once upon a time living in a community that was considered majority Black (or even if it wasn’t and you were one of only a few Black faces) meant that to the government and banks, your neighborhood was worthless at worst, and at best “lacked the value” of neighborhoods considered white. This had the effect of whole areas being divested of equity and investment and as a result, ghettos were created. These so called “ghettos” concentrated poverty and crime into these areas as those who fled to the suburbs enjoyed greener pastures that Blacks in the city were shut off from. Then one day, when those who had built tremendous equity and wealth in the suburbs decided that the city was once again desirable, the “ghettos” that residents had spent decades living and fighting for investment in became invested in by the “flighters” or the sons and daughters or grandsons and daughters of the former “flighters”, and for this ambitious politicians were grateful, because economically neoliberal policies work best when it appears as if problems are being solved, with as little “dirty work” as possible. In the process those in the “ghettos” not only found themselves continually reeling from more of the same...violence, drugs, crime, poverty, shame, but also find themselves on the outside looking in on the lands of opportunity developing around them without tools to access it. Meanwhile in the public eye, leaders feign victory for the city as a whole while privately wringing their hands at the latest crime report, knowing all along the true reason for the dichotomy between the mostly white haves and the mostly Black have nots.  

[twh-news]

All is going well and Tom Hiddleston is expounding on his art and his love of the dramatic arts when the question that has to be asked brought him to a halt.

It is about his brief but high-profile romance with Taylor Swift, which seems to have begun in June 2016 and ended in September the same year. The relationship seemed so out of character for Hiddleston – a famously guarded Shakespearian actor frolicking on a beach with with one of the world's most photographed women? – that many speculated that it may not be genuine. "Of course it was real," he recently insisted to US GQ, going on to describe Swift as "an amazing woman".

With hindsight, I wonder, does he have any regrets about the publicity and gossip the romance engendered? "What should I regret, in your mind?" he shoots back, testily. Then: "I would rather not talk about this if that's alright."

Then a long pause, with his hand on his chin. "I'm just thinking about this," he says after a pause. Then: "Everyone is entitled to a private life. I love what I do and I dedicate myself with absolute commitment to making great art and great entertainment and in my mind I don't conflict the two. My work is in the public sphere and I have a private life. And those two things are separate."

So that's that and we return to his latest movie, Kong: Skull Island in which he plays Captain James Conrad, an SAS tough guy who is one of a team of explorers brought together to venture deep into an unchartered Pacific island, unaware it is the domain of the angry Kong.

Filmed mainly on locations in Hawaii and Vietnam and co-starring Brie Larson and Samuel L. Jackson, the five month shoot was an arduous one for Hiddleston.  

"The swamps were a challenge and everything about this was physical for me," he says. "I was up at 4am every single day training out of respect for the character. He is SAS and I would never presume to know or understand the depth of their physical rigor and mental strength, but I was training with a Navy SEAL and two former British marines because I at least wanted to make some small steps towards the self-discipline and expertise that those soldiers have.

"I think one of the most thrilling things about this film is that it satisfies that curiosity that we all have, about how long we would last if we were in a wilderness untouched by man. I always thought if somebody dropped me into the Amazon, would I make it through the first night or the second night, or would it be over by 6 o’clock?

"No, I am an urban creature really, but I loved playing this man Conrad, who I think is more content in an extreme, natural environment, probably more than he is anywhere else."

As befits an Old Etonian with extensive stage experience, Tom Hiddleston speaks eloquently and descriptively. He is happy to talk about his relationship with acting but - as demonstrated above - less comfortable when discussing his private life. "I understand that this is a big film and it’s part of my duty to stand in front of it and do interviews and go to premieres and meet people and that somehow goes with the territory," he says as if to explain his presence in a Los Angeles hotel suite. "So I just try to be myself."

Looking fit and trim, he is dressed all in black and his tee-shirt, he says, was given to him by Gucci: "I am very lucky that there is an aspect of my job which requires promotion and so I most recently am lucky enough to work with Gucci, who have lent me clothes to wear on those occasions. So some of those clothes I get to keep, but a lot of them I give back, I can assure you."

Unlike The Night Manager, the television series which earned him a best actor Golden Globe earlier this year, Kong: Skull Island required a lot of acting in front of creatures that weren't there. "The challenge always is to keep the engine of your imagination running," he says. "You spend a long time in scenes with creatures that don’t exist, so you have to imagine that they do.

"Purely and simply, it’s a leap of imagination and you try to conjure the idea of something terrifying and powerful in your mind and believe in it, because if the actors don’t believe in it, then there’s no way that the audience will."

Despite his Shakespearean background 36-year-old Hiddleston is no stranger to superheroes and monsters; and younger audiences know him mainly as Loki in the Marvel superhero movies Thor, Thor: The Dark World and The Avengers, with Thor: Ragnarok due out later this year. He also has two more Avengers films lined up in 2018 and 2019. but they are not roles he seems anxious to discuss except as a stepping stone to other things.

"I really choose my projects on their own merits but I am not unaware that the success of those films has given me a huge opportunity to do other work," he says.

The other work has included Steven Spielberg's War Horse, Woody Allen's romantic comedy Midnight in Paris, the BBC series Henry 1V and Henry V and, in a vast cultural stretch, the alcoholic country singer Hank Williams in I Saw the Light.

"Acting for me is about curiosity and imagination and I get a real kick out of scratching around doing my research and building characters," he says.

There is not a trace of Loki or, for that matter, Hank Williams in the in the well-spoken, Westminster-born Old Etonian who was at school with Prince William and Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne.

He counts Redmayne as a close friend but says: "I think Prince William is rather busy and has more important things to do than to hang out with me. But I saw him at a premiere of War Horse a few years back which was nice."

In the past, Eton College was known mainly for educating generations of politicians, aristocracy and statesmen, but it is now turning out actors as well. Other Old Etonians include Dominic West and Damian Lewis, although it is a phenomenon Hiddleston cannot explain. "I honestly don't know," he says. "When I chose to become an actor it felt like a very unusual thing to be doing and I certainly didn't feel I was choosing to do something that everyone else was doing. I suppose it's an interesting fact but I can't really comment on it because it's just a school I went to.

"Boarding school is a very interesting experience because you are away from home at a very early age so the friendships you form with people are very strong. The friends I made there are some of the closest friends I have. It's like a mixture of summer camp and Harry Potter without the magic. It was a good time."  

It was while at Eton he had his first acting role in A Passage to India. "I played the right leg of an elephant Eddie Redmayne was riding on which was my claim to fame and glory at that time and I still remind him of it," he says with a laugh.

He studied classics at Cambridge University where he was spotted by an agent in a production of A Streetcar Named Desire and shortly afterwards made his small-screen debut in a TV adaptation of Nicholas Nickleby and played Winston Churchill's black sheep son Randolph in The Gathering Storm. He studied at RADA and following his graduation in 2005 devoted more of his time to stage work than film roles, appearing in Cymbeline, Othello and in a West End revival of Ivanov.

He made sporadic television appearances, most notably in the detective series Wallander opposite Kenneth Branagh, who later cast him as the scheming Loki in Thor, which Branagh directed.

Movie roles followed and since his last outing as Loki in Thor: The Dark World in 2013 his work has included the role of Coriolanus on stage at the National Theatre, a cameo appearance as The Great Escapo in Muppets Most Wanted and starring roles in the dramas High-Rise and Guillermo del Toro's gothic horror film Crimson Peak, in which he replaced Benedict Cumberbatch.

He is currently taking a break from movies and spending time back in his London home in Belsize Park.

"It’s really simple, I have been working very hard and been away from home for the last three or four years and I just needed to take a moment to catch up with myself," he says."I've been in London for the last four months and I'm just having a breather and catching up and spending time with my family and friends which has been really nice."

He hasn't yet decided on what his next role will be but it's a good bet it will be something completely different from what he has done before.

"When I started acting I never wanted to limit myself to any one type of role or type of genre or even any form of the dramatic arts," he says. "I believe so profoundly in cinema and in theatre which in its own small way has a power to educate and to inspire, to entertain and to move;. And when I was younger I just wanted to be a part of it in some way.

"I love the theatre, that’s where I came from, I also love movies of all shapes. Big movies, small movies, blockbusters, independents, art pictures.... But I feel very grateful and very lucky that I have been allowed to move between different things. That’s what I always wanted to do, and I hope that it will continue."

28 Reasons Why People Like Free Architectural Plans For Homes | free architectural plans for homes

Earlier this fall, the West Coast bazaar banquet theater Teatro ZinZanni appear affairs to accessible an beginning in Chicago abutting spring. ZinZanni, which combines Cirque du Soleil–style acrobatics, comedy, and cabaret with high-end meals, has been active for two decades in its built-in Seattle, and will additionally accessible addition beginning in San Francisco. It will angle a 330-seat spiegeltent in Chicago in April, with a banquet card advised by Goddess and Grocer’s Debbie Sharpe.

Barrier Free House Plans – free architectural plans for homes | free architectural plans for homes

Just as hasty as ZinZanni’s announcement is the area area it’ll set up shop: not in a behemothic parking lot alfresco the United Center, but in a cavernous, long-forgotten asylum in the Cambria Hotel on Randolph Street, appropriate in the Loop.

“As I absolved into that space, [I] aloof went, ‘Where did this appear from?’” lead ambassador Stanley Feig said in a buzz account afterwards the announcement. “It took my artist all of 30 abnormal to attending and go, ‘Yeah, we could do this.’’”

The Cambria Hotel’s facade rises 22 stories, but the ZinZanni amplitude sits atop the building’s beneath rear stack. The basal eight belief are active by Broadway in Chicago’s Oriental Theatre; to get to ZinZanni, you booty an accurate elevator up to the 14th floor, area ZinZanni’s three-story amplitude matches the brand of the 2,200-seat Oriental below it — after the account of abutment beams. Feig had been aloof Chicago for about a decade for a atom that could abode ZinZanni year-round. But he didn’t apperceive to attending aloft the Oriental Theatre until Broadway in Chicago admiral Lou Raizin gave him a call.

“Being the amphitheater abettor in the architecture below, Lou is acquainted of aggregate that goes on in there,” says Feig. “When the amplitude was revealed, he anon affiliated the dots.”

So how did cipher apperceive about a huge abandoned attic in the affection of the Loop? Turns out, it had been adapted for appointment amplitude decades ago, with eight-foot bead ceilings ambuscade its accurate dimensions. The State of Illinois had been the best contempo occupant, Feig says, and no one doubtable what it had until renovations began for the Cambria’s 2017 opening.

“I suspect,” he says, “anyone who knew it was there is no best with us.”

I did some digging into actual annal and bi-weekly athenaeum to see what I could acquisition on the massive hall’s aloft life. It’s no abstruse that the Oriental Theatre, and the architecture that rises aloft it, were advised by C.W. and George Rapp, the affinity architects amenable for all sorts of Chicago movie palaces, including the Chicago Theatre, the Cadillac Palace Theatre, the Uptown, and the Riviera.

What’s beneath remembered is the building’s aboriginal character as a Masonic temple. Different sources amid 1926 and 1946 alarm it the United Masonic Temple or the New Masonic Temple. It was “new” because the Freemasons confused there from Burnham and Root’s aboriginal Chicago Masonic Temple a block east at State and Randolph, which was completed in 1892 (it was razed in 1939, and the Joffrey Ballet architecture now stands on its site).

The building’s 1978 choice anatomy for the National Register of Historic Places hints at the accurate attributes of the floors aloft the Oriental, admitting they were by again chopped up into offices:

The new Masonic architecture is a masterpiece of engineering. Noteworthy actuality is the actuality that the Oriental Theatre occupies floors 1 through 8 of the rear of the building. Built anon over the amphitheater are four Masonic halls on the 9th floor, three halls on the 10th floor, two on the 12th floor, and one as ample as the theatre itself on the 14th to 16th floors. The actuality that there are eight belief (10 auditoriums), all with no arresting support, anon aloft the theatre which throughout its accomplished autogenous contains no arresting supports, is absolutely a accolade to Rapp and Rapp’s engineering abilities.

That top anteroom was in its ancient apotheosis a 1,900-seat auditorium, the basic of which could still be apparent in raw anatomy at ZinZanni’s mock groundbreaking event in September (it complex a shovel, tossed glitter, and absurd costumes).

And the amplitude hosted added than Masonic rites. While there’s no affirmation of accepted amphitheater actuality staged there, the Tribune athenaeum offer examples of the kinds of accessible contest that did booty abode there in the ’20s and ’30s. Display ads acquaint readers of a “free address on Christian Science by John W. Doorly, C.S.B., of London, England” and a Salvation Army–sponsored actualization by “Commander Evangeline Booth, one of the world’s greatest women speakers.”

In 1929, the John Marshall Law School captivated its admission commemoration in the auditorium, bidding the headline “FIVE WOMEN GET DEGREES AS LAW CLASS GRADUATES.” In 1938, a once-thriving Swedish congenial alignment took over the anteroom for a celebration adulatory the 300th ceremony of the aboriginal Swedish antecedents in America; the casting was some 350 strong.

But my admired account out of the Masonic architecture accumulation anteroom is actual in a January 16, 1928 Tribune adventure headlined, “MASKED ORATOR FINDS CHICAGO A SINFUL CITY.” It capacity a amazing address by “a atramentous robed, atramentous hooded figure” to an admirers of 800. Introduced by the Rev. Philip Yarrow, administrator of the “Illinois Vigilance Association,” the masked man claimed to be an ex-Secret Service abettor who had absorbed himself in Chicago’s abyss for the aftermost eight years.

“I accept stalked through every dive in the city. I accept visited Cicero’s dens of iniquity. I accept played poker with the brother of Al Capone,” our hero had pronounced. The un-bylined Trib reporter, possibly hinting at their own balmy amusement, describes the educational allocation of the evening: “Argot was explained to them. ‘Grand,’ the man in the affectation declared, meant $1,000. And a ‘C-note’ was $100. Such phrases as ‘racket,’ ‘put the finger,’ and ‘make a squawk’ were interpreted.”

And again the anchorman allotment to commendation the speaker: “Chicago has awash her body for pleasure. Old Rome in all its bender was never like this city. There are added seats in Loop theaters than in all the churches in the city.”
