What a great idea! With support from the Ahmanson Foundation and in partnership with the UCLA/Getty Master’s Program in the Conservation of Archaeological and Ethnographic Materials, LACMA created an eight-week internship where three graduates of the UCLA/Getty Program are paired with two recent graduates of Verbum Dei High School. They spent the summer helping to conserve the Watts Towers! There should be more projects like this!

El Dorado

Wed, 18 Jul 2012 13:45:00 -0400

By Edgar Allan Poe

Gaily bedight,
A gallant night
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of El Dorado.

But he grew old —
This knight so bold —
And — o’er his heart a shadow
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like El Dorado.

And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow —
“Shadow,” said he,
“Where can it be —
This land of El Dorado?”

“Over the Mountains
Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,”
The shade replied —
“If you seek for El Dorado.”

Here’s a little picture of the Watts Towers. I think I’d first seen the towers on TV, either that or it was in my “Weird California” book. I was finally able to visit them last year and they proved to be as amusing in person as in picture! The Watts Towers were built by Simon Rodia over a period of 33 years, from 1921 to 1954. From the stories, he sounds like a very colorful character, which of course I love because well… most of us are colorful characters in our own way!

“No you’re not, I don’t like it when you call yourself stupid so please don’t do that.”

- kind office random (heard while eavesdropping in my cubicle). You just gotta say, “aw”.

Six part series of a documentary VH1 did about crack cocaine and hip hop. Really quite good actually, definitely worth watching! AND puts new meaning to when people say that REAL hip hop is dead.

Watch the rest on YouTube!
