SET SIXTEEN - ROUND TWO - MATCH TWO
"Memorial to a Marriage" (2002 - Patricia Cronin) / "A Few Small Nips" (1935 - Frida Kahlo)
MEMORIAL TO A MARRIAGE: This is a very skilled piece, and there are all these little details, like the blanket over the couple, and the way their feet touch. And it's the artist and her (now) wife - made in a time when they couldn't marry. As a lesbian I can acknowledge that marriage is not the 'end all, be all' of gay rights, but this makes me feel a lot of things and I could stare at it for hours. (@beelzeblogging)
A FEW SMALL NIPS: Apparently Frida was inspired to paint this from a news headline about a man who stabbed his girlfriend several times. In court, he said, “I only gave her a few small nips!” I think Frida is trying to show how men belittle the damage they cause to women. Frida famously had an incredibly difficult relationship with her husband, Diego. So Frida decided to depict this in all its bloodiness. The title held by birds make it feel more darkly humorous. Also, this woman has short hair and Diego Rivera always liked her hair long. Her body is contorted, facing two directions. The blood spattering the frame creates an even more visceral scene. As if she’s saying, it’s not just in the news, it could be happening to you, right now. (@nicolaleecallahan)
("Memorial to a Marriage" is a mortuary sculpture made of carrera marble measuring 27 x 42 x 84 inches (69 x 107 x 213 cm) and weights three tons. It is located Woodlawn Cemetery, Brooklyn. Artist Patricia Cronin modeled the sculpture after herself and her wife Deborah Kass before same sex marriage was legal in the United States. It has been exhibited in over 50 locations and there are bronze versions in permanent collections of various museums, including the National Portrait Gallery.
"A Few Small Nips" is an oil on metal painting by Frida Kahlo. It measures 30 x 40 cm (11.8 x 15.7 in) and is located in the Dolores Olmedo Collection in Mexico City.) Some info about the painting can be found here.)

SHIN ULTRAMAN
Okay, it’s bad enough (though, given how things have been the last year, inevitable) that Toho has postponed the release of the Shin Ultraman film from early summer to nobody-knows-when.
But just a few days ago Bandai added insult to injury by announcing the new Dynaction Shin Ultraman action figure.
At first blush, this just looks like the regular SHFiguarts figure of Shin Ultraman. I read a little more of the description and the Dynaction figure is supposed to have “die-cast and POM plastic joints for enhanced posablity.”
It’s also supposed to have light-up eyes (batteries included). But the real difference between the Dynaction figure and the SHFiguarts figure is size: the Dynaction figure is 40 cm/15.7 inches tall!
So far, so good, I thought. This baby is going to be more than twice the size of the SHFiguarts version; bigger even than a 1/6-scale figure. And still be super-poseable. Win, win situation. right?
Then I saw the price, and I had to rub my eyes and splash cold water in my face numerous times to make sure I wasn’t seeing things.
The price is going to be 22,000 yen, or approximately $202.00 US with current exchange rates.
I don’t know about you, but that’s more than a little expensive for a figure that is twice the size of their regular figure, even with the inclusion of light-up eyes.
For comparison, these are the last four Ultraman figures (based on the anime versions) that I have purchased from Threezero.
Ultraman (anime version on left, manga version on right); the batteries are dead in the anime version’s chest which is why it’s not lit
Ultraman version 7.2 (for all intents and purposes he’s Ultraseven)
Ultraman Ace
Like the Dynaction figure, all of these are extremely well articulated, are made of die-cast and plastic parts, and have light-up features. Multiple light-up features, not just the eyes (as illustrated in the above photos). The Ultraman figures also have light-up features on their forearms, which I did not take photos of.
The Ultraman and Ultraman ver. 7.2 (Ultraseven) are just shy of 13 inches tall.
MSRP for each one of these figures: $130.00 US each.
That’s a little more than half of what Bandai will be charging for the Dynaction Ultraman figure.
And for $200.00, I sure as heck do not want to see all of those exposed joints!
Why is the Dynaction figure so expensive in comparison? I don’t know. I’ve long had an issue with the price Bandai charges for many of their figures, especially their SHFiguarts Ultraman figures and SHMonsterarts figures. These always seem to be more expensive than the SHFiguarts Kamen Rider and Super Sentai figures.
For further comparison, the SHFiguarts Shin Ultraman figure, which is due to be released later this summer, is priced at $58.00 US. Most of the Kamen Rider and Super Sentai figures are in the $20-$30.00 US range.
I sometimes wonder if the reason the Ultraman figures always seem to be more expensive is because Bandai is the majority (49.5% the last time I checked) stockholder of Tsuburaya Productions, the folks who created and own Ultraman. But I don’t feel like going down that rabbit hole right now.
And before some people chime in and say something about the cost of importing the toys from Japan, be aware that the price of these figures in Japan is exactly the same.
The Shin Ultraman Dynaction figure is currently scheduled to be released in the US in October, so if anyone is interested in it I would suggest you start saving your pennies.
As for me, it’s not a priority purchase. If I see it offered at reasonable price on Mandarake I might pick it up sometime down the line, but I’m not going to hold my breath.
Thus endeth the rant.

Eveninglake, Karin Goeppert
A small abstract piece which I started with an underpainting of coffee. It gives a nice warm tone. It still can be seen in the very light parts of the painting. I took a free-association approach to the work, that is, I let the work take me where it wanted to go. I used, as I said, coffee, acrylic colours on artist quality watercolour paper. The work in inches is 7.7 x 11.6, it is signed on the back. There is a 1 cm border around the painting. With the mat the work is 30 x 40 cm (11.8 x 15.7 inches) I sell the painting with a matching off-white mat. If you have any questions please contact me through Saatchi.

Florence Vintage Cube_Study n°. 4, Graziella Coi
"Florence Vintage Cube" is a project to represent the city in a different way. Usually, the snow globe, that tourist buy as a city’s souvenir, is a transparent sphere made of glass, which contains the miniature city and the water serves as the medium through which the "snow" falls. In this artwork, however, the city is represented in a glass cube and the snow is outside. It is a new way to see the city. In this case, Florence is seen inside the cube through an aerial zenithal photo of its historic center, a few photos of the late nineteenth century, a work of Ottone Rosai entitled Via Toscanella (1922), and a lunette of Giusto Utens, Belvedere con Pitti (1599 approx.) Digital ArtworK: Lambda print on forex (12.6 x 15.7 x 0.2 inch/ 32 x 40 x 0.5 cm)

"Do you remember..?" (SOLD), Katarzyna Chlipalska
Oil on canvas, dimensions 15.7 x 19.7 inches (40 x 50 cm). Painted from an old black and white photo, for my friend who wanted to make a gift for her parents. We thought that it would be a lovely idea to paint something which will recall memories, when they were young and were not even married. I wanted to keep an impression of an old photo to make it more melancholy and vintage

How to Choose a Wall Mirror
There are many types of wall mirrors available. Choose the perfect one for your home using our helpful tips. Depending on your personal tastes, you can choose from a rectangular, circular, or over-the-door mirror. We also explain how to hang a mirror using a hook and what to look for in a wall mirror. Once you have chosen a wall mirror, you can decorate the room with a stylish accent piece. Whether you choose an over-the-door or rectangular mirror, make sure you choose one that is about 2/3 of the width of the furniture in which it is placed.
Rectangular
A rectangle wall mirror can enhance the style and design of any room. The classic shape of this mirror is ideal for hallways and is available in a wide range of styles. A standard-sized mirror can also add depth to the decor of a hallway. A wall mirror can be mounted anywhere in a room, including above a long table or beside an entryway. For best results, choose a mirror with a diameter of two thirds of the width of the furniture or wall.
This wall mirror comes with lights surrounding its edge. The lights are powered by two AA batteries, not included. The mirror's switch is located on its side frame. The finished size is approximately 50 x 40 cm (15.7 inches).

Mirror for wall
A rectangle wall mirror can enhance the style and design of any room. The classic shape of this mirror is ideal for hallways and is available in a wide range of styles. A standard-sized mirror can also add depth to the decor of a hallway. A wall mirror can be mounted anywhere in a room, including above a long table or beside an entryway.

This wall mirror comes with lights surrounding its edge. The lights are powered by two AA batteries, not included. The mirror's switch is located on its side frame. The finished size is approximately 50 x 40 cm (15.7 inches).
Over-the-door
Installing an over-the-door wall mirror is an excellent way to save space, as it occupies minimum space on the wall. This wall mirror is suitable for any room, including the bedroom, as it is designed to maximize the viewing area of an outfit while taking up minimal space. This door mirror is adjustable so it can be hung at varying heights and can also be hung directly on the wall. However, it is important to keep the overall design simple, as this type of mirror will not be as versatile as wall-mounted mirrors.
An over-the-door wall mirror has two benefits: it saves valuable wall space, and it doubles as a storage space. Mirrors can be placed on both sides of a door, doubling as both a decorative piece and a storage unit. If you are looking to save space, opt for a mirror that is made of tempered glass or safety glass. Despite its limited functionality, over-the-door mirrors save space in small spaces, which makes them an ideal choice for apartments and dorm rooms.
Rivet
A wrought iron accent, the Rivet for wall mirror from Merrimack is both decorative and functional. This versatile piece is available in two sizes to suit any style and decor. With rivet detailing and a dark metal frame, it will add a rustic, industrial look to your home. There are two types of Rivet for wall mirrors to choose from: small and large. Each comes with four preinstalled hooks for easy vertical or horizontal hanging.
Framed
When it comes to framing a mirror, it is important to follow some basic rules. While traditional shoppers may enjoy browsing through a furniture store's showroom to examine the quality of their purchase, modern shoppers can save time and money by shopping online. Prices will vary based on the size and shape of the mirror, as well as the materials used for its frame. Consider your home decor and style when choosing a frame for your mirror.
To measure the frame, start by placing the mirror against the wall at the height you would like it to be. Using your finger, feel the wire and mark the spot. Repeat this procedure for two more measurements, with the distance between them being one quarter of the distance between the D-rings. Once the pieces have been cut, place them on a level so that they line up correctly. Alternatively, you can use a jigsaw to cut the mirror to the exact size and shape.
Frameless
If you want to add color and style to your visitor seating area, consider installing a frameless wall mirror. Despite their name, they add an extra touch to your home. You can choose one with beveled edges to match your decor or opt for a simple one without a frame. Whatever you choose, frameless mirrors are a good choice for any home. These versatile pieces can be used in any room of your home, whether it's your own or someone else's.
These decorative wall mirrors have a vintage charm that will complement any room. They add a glimmering glare and add a classic touch. These pieces are also available in unique and exotic designs. If you want to give your room a more elegant look, go for a vintage style frameless mirror. These are very feminine in appearance and have a vintage feel. They can be used for the same purpose as a conventional frame.
Framed with a decorative frame
Decorative wooden-framed wall mirrors add a beautiful touch to your home. Featuring a smooth and durable wood frame, this decorative mirror can be used alone or in combination with other home decor. Its sheer size and weight make it an eye-catching display of glamour and beauty. This large mirror weighs 18.8 lbs. and can be hung on a wall or placed on the floor.
Decorative wooden sticks are a great accent for a rounded mirror. They can be painted, distressed, or left natural. Adding a gold border can transform a bland gym mirror into a gilded masterpiece. You can even choose a frame with a decorative pattern to accent an existing piece of art. Once you have chosen the right material, it is time to choose a style. Consider choosing a wood-framed mirror in a deep color to compliment your existing decor or a lighter stain to complement a more modern look.

Mission accomplished!
So, it’s been 18 weeks since I embarked on my weight loss journey. When I started on June 8th, 2020, I was all of 159.8 lbs (72.5kg) with a body fat percentage of 34.3% (categorised as obese) and measured 100, 82, 102 cms (39.4, 32.3, 40.2 inches) around my bust, waist and butt. Today, I weight 142.8 lbs (64.8kg) and my body fat percentage has come down to 21.4% (just a little shy of hitting the ‘athletes’ category, yay!) and I measure 88, 68, 88 cms (34.6, 26.8, 34.6 inches around my bust, waist and butt. Overall, I have lost 12.9% body fat; with a total fat loss of 10.9kg and muscle mass gain of 3.2kg. I’ve also lost a total of 40 cms (15.7 inches) from my bust, waist and butt.
I honestly thought that I was going to be a little bit lighter when I hit my ideal body fat percentage -- my target weight at the beginning of my journey was 135 lbs -- but of course, this might not be relevant anymore as the last time I was 135 lbs, I was purely doing cardio plus some BJJ thrice a week max.
I’ve probably put on more muscle weight now that I’ve incorporated some weightlifting into my workouts; and before we’re forced to go back into quarantine this week, I was easing into Crossfit four times a week.
Now that I’ve hit my body fat ideal, I guess losing more weight is optional. Of course, I could always lose some more in order to see a six pack. Then again, I know from experience that once my body fat dips lower than 20%, maintaining it will be a lot harder.
The lowest I’ve been body fat-wise was around 17%, which is hardly low enough, but at that point, my period had become scanty and I came to a point where I woke up every morning feeling like I’d been hit by a truck the night before. I was also getting sick super easily, which meant that although I may have liked the way I looked at the time, my body certainly wasn’t working optimally. My immune system was suffering and eventually, so did training.
Know your body type What I’ve learnt to accept this time around is that you have to train and eat for the body you have and not for the body you want. If I had a choice on what I’d like my body to look like, it would be like Nicole Scherzinger’s or Shay Mitchell, or any celeb with an ectomorph body type. Growing up, I was super self-conscious about my thick Kadazan legs (it also doesn’t help that I’m short!). I thought losing weight would automatically make me look slender and lithe. It didn't. It simply made me look like a slimmer version of me. Today, older and wiser, and sick and tired of feeling uncomfortable in my own skin; I’ve learned that you can only make the best of the body you have. It’s the only body you’re gonna have for the rest of your life! Instead of looking at unrealistic role models, I have learned to look at bodies that are similar to mine to see when I could potentially go both physique and performance-wise.
In the past, the media had led the public to believe that the only way to be beautiful, fit and healthy is to be small and slim. Not true.You can be fit regardless of your body type.
Chrissy King, Kayla Itsines and Kaisa Keranen are all fitness trainers who have different body types. They prove that fitness comes in all shapes and sizes. You just have to work with the body you have. Whether you are a naturally softer and rounder endomorph like Chrissy, a slender and lithe ectomorph like Kayla, or a strong and amazon-like mesomorph like Kaisa, you can always work towards becoming your fittest self.
That’s what I did and still continuing to do.

RARE page 9, Stéphane Zagdanski
60 x 40 cm Châssis Berge Plus Stabilo Boss jaune fluorescent 23.6 x 15.7 inches Canvas Berge Plus Stabilo Boss Original highlighter pen yellow Stéphane Zagdanski was born in Paris on April 1963. For the past twenty-five years, he has written about twenty books published by Gallimard, Fayard, Le Seuil… His new autobiographical novel, RARE, relates the life and thoughts day by day of a Parisian man of letters obsessed by a question: ‘What is writing’. In this way, RARE is the diary of a writing process. This story, which starts in English and continues in French, relates its own transformation all along the conception and the extravagant redaction of ‘Chaos Brûlant’. However, RARE doesn’t simply describe a metamorphosis, it is the metamorphosis itself. ‘I was about to write by hand a novel which would describe a writer’s inner life. I was about to make tangible the thoughts of a man dedicated to writing. A man who would decide, after having consecrated an entire novel to the nihilist destruction of the world, to save his own writing in a Noah’s Ark of Art, made of the paintings this story would be written on.’ RARE, page 99 Indeed, RARE spreads out its narrative and body through one hundred distinct calligraphy works. All media, instruments and objects were literally sacrificed on the altar of Writing. This unprecedented hybrid of Literature and Contemporary Art was presented in its entirety, for the first time, at the Eric Dupont gallery.

Jazz Gaff for Kayak Fishing
Gaff is pole made with a sharp hook on the end to stab different kinds of big fishes and lift the fish into the boat. Gaffs are used to hook bid fishes or those fishes exceed the breaking point of the fishing string or pole. The jazz gaff has a telescopic insert that extends from 10.5 to 24 inches which makes it very handy especially if used on a boat. Using gaff for fishing brings you to a higher level in the field of fishing. Jazz Gaff for Kayak Fishing The jazz gaff has the quality top components that come with a 10.5 inches long and it is ideal for the kayaks. The gaff made with fitted lanyard and point protector. Its body is made from aluminum with a steel pointed tip section. It has a duplon-shaped handle and fitted cap that makes you worry less about its security while using or putting it on the side. It is provided with a sturdy soft rubber cover to protect the point when not in use and it easily popped off when ready to use. This tool is well-designed and made. Must-Know Tips Try to avoid the middle of the fillet, aim for the fish’s head area with your gaff.Never stab at the fish.Sweep the gaff toward the boat alwaysNever lift the fish’s head out of the water while waiting on the gaff.Lift the gaff when the fish is ready, and close by.Make sure that your boat or kayak never touches the fish when you are pulling it out of the water.Avoid kids near the gaff at any time.The gaff should be at the right size and hook depending on your boat and the type of fish you are targeting. So just having your kayak and gaff is not enough. I will show you the technique to fish like a pro exclusively for you. Plan Ahead A successful fishing starts with a controlled set-up. Most of the anglers stop their boat or kayak to gaff a fish but with the boat, in gear the fish goes up to the surface and continues to swim forward which means, this offers a perfect timing to gaff a fish. Before you go fishing, make sure that your needed materials and equipment are ready especially your favorite gaff to hook a big one. Make sure to control the fish like dolphins and tuna. Hold the leader low and with wind-on leaders, the anglers can catch the fish almost to the rod tip. Gear Up In choosing the right gaff may be hard for all of us. Most professionals use quiver kind of gaffs. Use a 6-foot gaff with a 2-inch bite to secure big fish that you might catch. A hand Jazz gaff is also a great tool for handling fish and works as a convenient and excellent dehooker. Remember what Hagerich advised, “When everything is on the line, don’t screw up!” How the Gaff Lengths Measure Up “The length of the gaff depends on the species you want to target and the configuration of the boat.” according to Don Hutson, sales manager at Bass Pro Shops Besides, most anglers prefer 4 to 6 feet handles which are the ideal length to touch the water in 25 to 40 feet boats. Handle lengths is one of the things you must consider with the boat size and your personal reference. The shorter the gaffs, the easier it is to store and handle however their shorter size or length needs the gaffer to wait for a clean and close shot. Since most of the anglers ideal gaff length are between 4-6 foot handles, they also have problems with gaffs that are longer than 6 feet. The gauge of the gaff hook is related to the size of the fish being targeted. The hooks vary in size but the most adaptable are those gap that measures 2 to 4 inches with hooks made from stainless steel. The hooks are of great quality when it emphasizes corrosion assistance and strength. But Sea Striker made simple 12-foot tournament kingfish hand gaff models with a 2 to 4 inches hooks. All gaffs are solid handhold whether that is tuna cord wraps, foam grips or a wrist lanyard. Gloves are still there to help during the critical battle at the gunwale. Fishing Gaff Material Aluminum and fiberglass are the most common materials used to make gaff handles. Aluminum and fiberglass, pound for pound gaffs possess similar strengths and can last for many years of usage. The standard issue on charter boats these days is anodized-aluminum gaffs whether they are coated in gold, black, blue or silver. Based on experiments of Colleen Hopwood from Eagle Claw, “We tested our aluminum gaffs in salt-spray chambers for more than 552 hours, resulting in minimal corrosion.” Some anglers choose the rich anodized look of aluminum, while others stick to the old-school fashion fiberglass feel of cord- wrapped handles. Fiberglass is lighter and its thick-walled E-glass construction is flexible and durable. Top 3 Best Gaffs 2018 1. SANLIKE Telescopic Fish Gaff

Florence Vintage Cube_Study n°. 3, Graziella Coi
"Florence Vintage Cube" is a project to represent the city in a different way. Usually, the snow globe, that tourist buy as a city’s souvenir, is a transparent sphere made of glass, which contains the miniature city and the water serves as the medium through which the "snow" falls. In this artwork, however, the city is represented in a glass cube and the snow is outside. It is a new way to see the city.
