Robert Rauschenberg, Hoarfrost (1974–76)
For the Hoarfrosts, Rauschenberg used solvent to transfer images from newspapers and magazines to unstretched fabric. The Hoarfrosts were created when Rauschenberg noticed that the cheesecloth used to clean lithography stones in print workshops retains traces of ink when hung up to dry. The series was also inspired by James Rosenquist’s birthday gift to Rauschenberg of a bolt of transparent silk that reminded Rauschenberg of a “hoarfrost”—frozen water vapor—a word used in Dante’s Inferno. According to the artist’s instructions, the unstretched fabric works are attached to the wall with push-pins that are inserted in sewn "button holes" at the upper edge, allowing them to respond to air currents and move accordingly. The artist described them to Calvin Tomkins as “shimmering information.”

When I first started following football properly I was about 25 and West Ham had just been relegated to the championship. Kevin Nolan was our captain, Sam Allardyce was our manager and James Tomkins and Winston Reid made up the sexiest centre back duo never seen before or since in football. It was a glorious time, we won week in week out against the like of Barnsley, Cardiff and Blackpool. We got promoted back up to the Premier League. European football wasn’t even on the horizon.
I can’t believe sometimes we got from there to here. How quickly people forget. We’re not actually a club entitled to and expected to get European football every season. We’re not a club who were ever likely to win a European trophy. We don’t finish in the top 7 like we’re sitting comfortably.
Tonight might be the last game of European football West Ham play for a long time and it was a fucking privilege to have been there. I was so proud watching us, I had so much _fun_ watching us. It was a performance worthy of where we’ve got to over the past few years.
I’m sick of the Moyes haters. Fucking statues should be erected in his name.
Irons irons irons. What a wonderful way to bow out of the competition . I love this club ⚒️🫧

𝒂 𝒍𝒊𝒍 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆.
Whitney, with her distinctive big brown deer eyes, has become a trending topic, as social media platforms buzz with discussions about her potential to step into the iconic role. Known for her penchant for capturing moments on set, Whitney's Instagram feed is a testament to her love for photography and provides a behind-the-scenes glimpse into her life as an actress.
A quick Google search unveils the dichotomy of opinions surrounding Whitney Winters. Fans laud her as "genuine," appreciating her authenticity, while internet trolls dub her as "feisty," perhaps a testament to her fearless approach to both her career and public image. In a recent Variety interview, Whitney opens up about her journey, revealing a vulnerable side as she shares her previous aversion to the sound of her own voice on tape, providing fans with a deeper understanding of the actress behind the roles.
Before gracing the reboot of "One Tree Hill," Whitney carved her path in the entertainment industry with notable roles in both television and film. From her portrayal of Emma Chota in "Red Band Society" (2014-2015) to the compelling character Summer Newman in "The Young and the Restless" (2013-2017, 2018-2020), Whitney has showcased her versatility in the realm of soap operas and teen dramas.
On the big screen, Whitney delivered a memorable performance as Penny Lane in "Almost Famous" (2011), proving her prowess in bringing depth and nuance to her cinematic endeavors.
As Whitney Winters takes on the challenge of reviving a beloved character in the "One Tree Hill" reboot, audiences can expect an enthralling mix of talent, charm, and a genuine passion for storytelling from this rising star.
Whitney's upbringing has been a tapestry woven with the threads of privilege and sophistication. Attending elite private schools and socializing within exclusive circles, she has effortlessly embraced the expectations that come with being a Winters. From lavish galas to cultural soirées, Whitney navigates high society with grace, carrying the legacy of her family name with dignity.
The Winters family fortune, built over generations, stems from astute business ventures, investments, and a keen eye for opportunities. Their financial empire spans various industries, mirroring the diverse talents within the family. With business moguls and influential figures in their lineage, the Winters family has left an indelible mark on both the corporate and social landscapes.
Despite the legacy of wealth, Whitney Winters is determined to carve her own path in the entertainment industry, proving that she is more than just a beneficiary of her family's affluence. While the Winters name opens doors, Whitney's talent, ambition, and dedication to her craft are what truly set her apart in the world of Hollywood.
'ᶜᵃᵘˢᵉ ᴵ ᶠᵉᵉˡ ˡᶤᵏᵉ ᴵ'ᵐ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵒʳˢᵗ ˢᵒ ᴵ ᵃˡʷᵃʸˢ ᵃᶜᵗ ˡᶤᵏᵉ ᴵ'ᵐ ᵗʰᵉ ᵇᵉˢᵗ
The seeds of Whitney's eating disorder were sown in the early days of her career when the demands of the industry collided with the relentless pursuit of an idealized body image. The pressure to conform to Hollywood's beauty standards, magnified by the scrutiny of the public eye, led Whitney down a perilous path.
To the outside world, Whitney appears flawless—a vision of beauty and elegance. Yet, behind closed doors, her life becomes a dance of meticulous calorie counting, grueling workout regimens, and a constant battle with the numbers on the scale. The pursuit of perfection becomes an unrelenting force, driving her to extremes to maintain the image that the industry demands.
Fearful of the judgment that might accompany vulnerability, Whitney buries her struggle deep within, keeping her eating disorder hidden from friends, family, and even her closest confidantes. The isolation intensifies, and the burden of secrecy grows heavier with each passing day.
Whitney's disorder takes on a life of its own, weaving a vicious cycle of guilt, shame, and fleeting moments of perceived control. The industry's insatiable appetite for physical perfection becomes the battleground where Whitney fights her silent war, unknowingly contributing to the perpetuation of a toxic cycle.
As Whitney rises higher in the echelons of fame, the toll of her eating disorder becomes increasingly evident. Frailty replaces the strength she once exuded, and the sparkle in her eyes dims. The facade begins to crack, prompting whispers within the industry and speculation among her devoted fan base.
WANTED CONNECTIONS.
all the connections pls.
squad. best friends. her platonic soulmates
the oth girl gang
the one that got away
mutual pinning
fwb / ex, like they claim to have moved on but hook up everytime they see each other and can't stop. lowkey a toxic relationship like so fucked up but its a good kind of hurt
okay but would it not be hilarious if the actor cast as Nathan can’t stand her for whatever reason and they have to act all lovey dovey on screen for however many seasons + maybe they hooked up before even auditioning and whitney like stomped all over his heart
Friend of convenience. They are seen taking pics all over social media and at various events but are lukewarm to each other at best when not in public
A very Lauren Conrad/Heidi Montag type of relationship. They used to be best friends and had a major falling out and now even hearing that they will be in the same room together causes whispers
Unrequited Crush/Secret Admirer
Longtime Childhood Friend

Something I've been wondering since a lot of the older cats tend to get cast younger and younger recently - are there any performers you could plausibly see as "real" younger versions of those characters?
Anon, that is actually a super interesting question (and I hope I'm understanding what you're asking for; apologies if I misunderstood - if you are asking whether there are performers who have not played the role but played others and can get away with playing them, honestly I'm not a big proponent of having all super young swings and understudies, and I've spoken at length about that before), but there *are* actually a handful of performers of past (which means that they *were* young when they initially took the role and looked it) and present that I could feasibly see as younger (and by "younger" I mean like more in the 20s) faceclaims or "versions" of my beloved older cats (and that I often will note back too when I'm trying to picture them in my mind).
From what I have heard and seen of them, they also give off more of a younger vibe, either due to the lack of maturity in their voices, or their general dispositions, that I think works well as these characters but younger. Imagine a different bunch of teenagers and gapped teeth babies running around the Junkyard hollering at one another and whining at their parents before *they* became the parents, ahaha.
I can give you some of my favourites to avoid wasting too much space. I can do a Part 2 with Asparagus/Gus, Old D and Grizabella if you're interested:
Skimbleshanks:

Matthew Gould (on his first go around; he aged into it much better the second go - Ross Finnie could technically also take this spot)

Philip Bertioli (and this is a costume thing but his vest always looked too big for him which just amped up the baby vibe)
Tumblr media
Giovanni DiGabriele
Tumblr media
Hayden Baum (specifically his first go around - that is a baby)
Tumblr media
Tyler Keller (who looks *particularly* old photo like in this shot with the filter and expression - slap a black and white or sepia filter over that and tell me that's not an old photograph)
Tumblr media
Taylor Scanlan (also *very* baby and *very* pretty*).
(Others for consideration if these don't tickle your fancy: Sandy Rass, Sean McManus, Shaun Henson, Jon-Paul Christensen, Philip Comley, Dann Dunn, Brian O'Muiri, Billy Mahoney, Jarryd Nurden, Park Seong-ryong, Bryan Mottram

The Art Of Intrinsic Motivation
In the 1999 World Rowing Championships, James Tomkins and I had the chance to showcase our teamwork and skill in St Catherines, Canada in the coxless pair event. Prior to our success I have a vivd memory of sitting under a tree days out from the final. I was just enjoying a deep sense of connection to nature. I reflected on what was ahead of with the final race of the season, the wonderful…

Nhận định bóng đá Crystal Palace vs West Ham United, 18h30 ngày 29/4/2023 tại nhà cái da ga truc tiep. Dự đoán tỷ số bóng đá giữa Crystal Palace vs West Ham United, 18h30 ngày 29/4/2023.
Crystal Palace sẽ tiếp đón đối thủ West Ham United tại Selhurst Park trong trận đấu tại Premier League vào thứ Bảy.
Tất cả các dự đoán, thăm dò ý kiến người dùng và thống kê trận đấu Crystal Palace vs West Ham United được hiển thị bên dưới - cùng với tỷ lệ cược trận đấu mới nhất.
Crystal Palace sẽ không muốn lặp lại kết quả gần đây nhất của họ ở đây sau thất bại 0-2 tại Premier League trong trận đấu gần nhất dưới tay Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Ở trận đấu đó, Crystal Palace cầm bóng tới 59% và tung ra 14 cú sút trúng khung thành, trong đó có 4 lần trúng đích. Cầu thủ duy nhất ghi bàn cho Crystal Palace là Joachim Andersen (3' Phản lưới nhà). Wolverhampton Wanderers có 9 lần dứt điểm với 3 lần trúng đích. Rúben Neves (94') ghi bàn cho Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Crystal Palace của Roy Hodgson đã ghi tổng cộng 10 bàn trong 6 trận trước đó. Ngược lại, tổng số bàn thắng được ghi vào lưới họ trong các trận đấu đó lên tới 8.
Trước cuộc gặp này, Crystal Palace bất bại 2 trận gần nhất trên sân nhà.
Sau thất bại trong trận đấu trước với Liverpool ở Premier League, West Ham United và người hâm mộ của họ sẽ hy vọng sẽ có được một kết quả tốt hơn lần này.
Trong trận đấu đó, West Ham United có 28% thời gian cầm bóng và thực hiện 7 lần ghi bàn với 2 lần trúng đích. Cầu thủ duy nhất ghi bàn cho West Ham United là Lucas Paquetá (12'). Liverpool đã có 20 lần cố gắng ghi bàn với 4 lần trúng đích. Cody Gakpo (18') và Joël Matip (67') ghi bàn cho Liverpool.

Trận đấu cuối cùng có sự góp mặt của các đội này là trận đấu ở vòng 15 Premier League vào ngày 11/06/2022 kết thúc với tỷ số West Ham United 1-2 Crystal Palace.
Trọng tài là Paul Tierney.
Huấn luyện viên của Crystal Palace, Roy Hodgson sẽ rất biết ơn khi không phải lo lắng về thể lực trước trận đấu này nhờ có sẵn một đội hình hoàn toàn không có chấn thương để lựa chọn.
Chúng tôi cho rằng The Eagles có thể sử dụng hệ thống 4-3-3 cho trận đấu và chọn Sam Johnstone, Joel Ward, James Tomkins, Marc Guehi, Tyrick Mitchell, Jeffrey Schlupp, C. Oumar Doucoure, Eberechi Eze, Michael Olise, Odsonne Edouard và Jordan Ayew.
Với một nhóm hoàn toàn khỏe mạnh có sẵn để lựa chọn, huấn luyện viên David Moyes của West Ham United không có bất kỳ lo ngại nào về thể lực khi bước vào cuộc đụng độ này.
Theo quan điểm của chúng tôi, The Hammers dường như sẽ bắt đầu trận đấu với hệ thống 4-2-3-1, bắt đầu với Lukasz Fabianski, Thilo Kehrer, Kurt Zouma, Naif Aguerd, Emerson, Tomas Soucek, Declan Rice, Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta , Pablo Fornals và Danny Ings.
Onebox63 tin rằng West Ham United và Crystal Palace đều có khả năng ghi bàn ở đây.
Có vẻ như một trận hòa có thể xảy ra. Do đó, chúng ta đang có một cuộc chạm trán chặt chẽ, kết thúc với tỷ số hòa khi trọng tài thổi còi hết trận.

The ghosts are waiting to check 'come to visit', but 'Wakehorst' is ready to meet Palace … Preview Premier League
Tumblr media
Palace may not be available for Joachim Andersen because of a calf injury that led to him being substituted against Chelsea on Sunday.
That's why James Tomkins is    London168  expected to come on the field to stand in the defensive line instead.
While Manchester United will have Vault Wakehorst ready to take part in this game. But they will wait to assess the fitness of Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford.
Diogo Dalot and Jadon Sancho are still unable to help the team, while Casemiro and Fred must be careful if they receive another yellow card and will automatically be banned.
collecting a few statistics
- Palace beat Manchester United in the final game of last season. It was our first home league win over Manchester United since 1991.
– Manchester United have lost three of their last six meetings with Crystal Palace in the league.
– If Manchester United wins 10 consecutive matches in all competitions It would be the longest winning streak in 14 years since 11 straight victories under Sir Alex Ferguson.
Ben's free-kick prediction: Manchester United win 2-1

2. James P. Donohue, the manager, who represents fourth generation in business (his mother is Estelle Mardorf Donohue.) 1968, The Journal News.
3. Mardorf’s Bakery, Main Street Haverstraw, 1989 (South of the Mountains 1989-04, Vol. 33, No. 2)
A ONE-FAMILY BUSINESS FOR ALMOST A CENTURY IN HAVERSTRAW
Excerpt from the Journal-News, 16, Jan 1968
Since 1869, four generations of a North Rockland family have combined bulldog determination and native ingenuity to carry on a one-man business.
The Mardorf Bakery in Haverstraw, now approaching its centennial year, is one of the small businesses in the county which has been able to keep up with modern economics.
Mardorf's has relied solely on the quality of its baked goods to do this, according to Mrs. Guy P. Donohue, president of the company. The bakery has specialized in cakes and danishes over the years, emphasizing sweeter baked goods, and is also known for its wedding cakes.
“Every cake is done to individual order." This, says Mrs. Donohue, has kept Mardorf's famous.
The one-family history that built the bakery's success began in Germany, where Mrs. Donohue's grandfather, Frederick Mardorf, was a baker.
Mardorf came to Rockland, where his relatives had settled, and established the original bakery in 1854 at 20 Main St., Haverstraw, under the name of Mardorf and Kieser. Kieser was a cousin of Frederick Mardorf.
In "A History of Haverstraw," noted: "In 1872, Frederick Mardorf and Frederick Kieser dissolved their bakery business by mutual consent. Frederick Kieser then opened his new bakery opposite the post office on West Street. He had the best kind of bread, pies and cakes, hot rolls in the morning and tea biscuits in the afternoon. He took orders for weddings and parties and ornamented cakes 'New York style.'
" In connection with the bakery, Kieser established a counter for ice cream, fountain soda water, hot cofee, tea and chocolate.
Frederick Mardorf continued to make good bread and cakes in the old bakery, the 'Excelsior' as it was called. He had been there 18 years and was an experienced baker, having been in the baking business in Germany, England and America.
“Mardorf pledged $1,000 to any person in Rockland County or New York City who could beat his bread, cake or confectionery in quality or size for a certain length of time.
“His wagons ran twice daily through Haverstraw, Garnerville, North and West Haverstraw, Tomkins Cove and Grassy Point, where his bread was sold at the principal stores. He made contacts with boarding houses for an entire season. His store was at the corner of Fourth and Main Streets, known as Gunkle's Corner. His motto was 'Good Quality, Small Profits, Quick Sales.'
Haverstraw resident, Richard Holland Sr., "has memories of this bakery dating back to 1910." He wrote recently in the Haverstraw Times :
''Charles Mardorf (Frederick Mardorf's son) and Mrs. Donohue's father at that time drove his horse-drawn bakery wagon to the brickyard section each morning in time for hot rolls and buns before the breakfast whistle blew on the brickyard of Wood and Allison, where my father was foreman.
“I wonder how many people remember Mardorf's butternut bread, which was sold not only in the bakery, but in most large retail outlets throughout Rockland County?
“I can still vividly recall the ginger snaps, lemon cookies with scalloped edges, the beautiful coffee cakes, the lemon pies made with fresh lemons from Springer's Market on Broadway, the fruit cake and the pumpkin and mine? pies at holiday time.
“All this was accomplished in the days when all baked items were made from the same barrel of flour. There were no specialty flours in those days.
“I did not see (Charles) Mardorf as a baker in action," continued Holland, "but was privileged to see his son Fred (Mrs. Donohue's brother) at work in later years when I was on the road as a bakery flour salesman.
“I called on hundreds of bakers, both large commercial and over-the-counter bakeries, as Mardorf's is known to the bakery salesman. Fred Mardorf was a real artist at his work, both at his bench and at the oven. He decorated wedding and birthday cakes as an artist would paint them.
“Fred is probably one of the last bakers around who could start from scratch and produce any item you requested. His spice cupcakes and black and white cookies were my favorites."
Mardorf's has never had branch stores, although many people have requested them to set up outlets throughout the county, says James Patrick Donahue, the fourth generation of the bakery dynasty and present business manager.
Donohue is a graduate of Holy Cross College and has a master's degree in business administration from Fairleigh-Dickinson University.
The old truck routes that were really "horse-and-buggy" routes in pre-automotive days were discontinued because they were not profitable.
The bakery now has limited sales to restaurants and churches "out-of-store" but continues to rely on the “over-the-counter" sales for most of its business.
There are now nine workers on the bakery staff at Mardorf's in a business which used to be an all-night operation.
“In pre-refrigeration days," says Donohue, "doughs had to be baked immediately when mixed to keep from spoiling."
He remembers when the bakery had a rear courtyard and stables where the bakery wagon horses were kept.
His grandmother used to can and cook all the fruits for the baked goods. Today's automated processes include rolling-pin machines and machines to stuff baked goods with fruit fillings.
The Mardorfs used to live above the store and bakery workers were also housed in the same building.
Three years ago, the bakery expanded to include a sales salon of party products. In future years, expansion may take on other forms but for the present Mardorf's is holding its own.
“Our greatest problem," continues Donohue, "is to find bakers who are competent." To tackle this problem, Mardorf's is taking part in the apprenticeship training program of the Manpower Development Training Act. The bakery hopes to enlist future workers for its ranks through this program.
Mardorf's also sports a plaque declaring its participation in the President's Council on Youth Opportunity.

Zelda Fitzgerald: Writer, Muse, and… Painter?
“For decades, Zelda Sayre Fitzgerald was known primarily as F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife and highly quotable sidekick, the original Roaring Twenties flapper and model for many of her husband’s fictional heroines. With the women’s movement in the late 1960s came a resurgence of interest in Zelda’s own talents as a writer of fiction and as a dancer. But until recently, few people were aware of her artwork, although she produced more than one hundred cityscapes of the places where she lived, illustrations for fairy tales and biblical stories, and paintings of figures and flowers. For me, though—her granddaughter—the showstoppers were always her paper dolls. ...”
