. -- original adaptations. what? what does that even mean? maybe he is saying that they are original or adapted from or inspired by these different fabrics on notions, but how would you determine if this is original or an adaptation or somewhere in between? furthermore many designers question and contemplate whether any design is truly original since pre-existing ideas styles, trends are the basis truly, for all garments. when we think about it, the great style that designers will follow is the zeitgeist, the spirit of the time, in creating their goods. they look at history. they look at high culture. they look at politics. they look at society. they are influenced by the se similar ideas. it is no wonder that similar products are created. this example stems from 1922. king tut's tomb was discovered. and all of a sudden everyone from hair products to make up to clothing designers are inspired by ancient egypt. and you see, pretty similar, they are all inspired by ancient egypt. so, i want you to think about, ju

the fashion originators guild of america was an attempt to protect and register original fashion. this class is about 40 minutes. >> good afternoon. i'm very happy to see you all here today. thank you for coming over to the memorial union to see this class. today i am going to present a paper called "docket off: a history of design piracy in the fashion industry." this work is currently under contract with texas tech university press. we will start with some questions to think about, do we know what design piracy is? all right with a showing of hands, how many of you have seen design piracy in magazines, intellivision, perhaps even on the internet? wow. a good number of you. here is my example with "marie claire" magazine, one with rachel ray and the higher-priced and the lower-priced version next to it. have you ever experienced design piracy while shopping online or at a brick-and-mortar store? raise your hand. we have even more people. recently i was looking at amazon.com. wanting to jump on the bandwagon for a jean jacket and some jersey and we sleeve and the authority. here w

saving the house was not possible the original house was demolished and removed so as not being added on to, altered or repaired, it's gone, one small portion was salvaged dbi's definition of demolition by the way, this is the property now, the demolition definition, demolition means the total tearing down or destruction of a building or any alteration which destroys or removes principle portions of an existing structure. principle portions are defined as construction which dears the shape and size of the building and belo low or that construction which alters two-thirds or more of the interior elements such as walls partitions ceilings, the building envelope of this building has been demolished and more than two-thirds of the elements have been altered the only remaining piece of this original house is not a principle portion, so by dbi's own definition, this project is a demolition requiring a demolition permit, not an alteration permit which is what he has. i don't know if you can see the bottom there. salvage piece is only being kept to pretend this is still an alteration, the spo

>> well, i think that not so much the original intent, the original meaning in god we trust is likely a trusted god. so that would be how i would interpret the meaning of that. that's what seems like to me unless there's some evidence that that's not what it meant, i would go with the obvious meaning of it. the if that is somehow a violation of the establishment prohibition on the federal government is i just don't see how that would be. i think the idea of setting up a national religion, what was called an established religion that certain characteristics. state that establishment of religion to them in existence at the time of the founding. what to the way the clause is where it says congress shall make no law with respect to an establishment of religion. it basically says you may not establish a religion and you may not this establish a religion to you may not make any law with respect to the study of religion to that's what the clauses. that's what it was meant, was thought to mean in the early years of the country. none of the states that have established religions objected to th

the original greenhouse of the botanic garden cost $5000 in 1850. and a gentleman was hired as the first superintendent of the botanic garden to care for the plants and to steward the facility so that it would be preserved into posterity. his name was william breckenridge. additionally, something i find fascinating is the u.s. botanic garden was at that time placed into the legislative branch of government. so it became by the mid 1850's a permanent freestanding agency of the legislative branch of government. and it was overseen and it remains overseen to the state by the joint committee on the library of congress. on the one hand, this seems like it does not really make a lot of sense. why would the joint committee on the library of congress -- the committee created by congress to make sure the library had books and resources it needed to inform the legislative process -- why would that could oversight of the collection of plants? there are two answers. one is that in 1850, there is no national parks service. there is not even a department of agric

originally put it with the original botanic garden on what's now called union square and then moved it over here piece by piece in the early 1930's. the bartholdi fountain is really interesting because when it was first created it was kind of a technological marvel and that it -- in that it was created out of iron and featured gas lighting that were both considered to be very high-tech for their time. and keeping with that tradition, the bartholdi fountain in its original location on union square was one of the first publicly visible structures to be electrified. it was partially electrified in 1881. supposedly, that was a tremendous marvel. people from all over the city would come out at night and look at these amazing electric light bulbs. this was absolutely fantastic. later on, it was fully electrified. as a fully electrified structure was a marvel. the fountain was beginning to fall into a little bit of disrepair by the end of the 20th century. so what you see before you today is a fully restored fountain. the restoration was completed a couple years ago. and it included not only

from their perspective, they need to be big players in original programming. there is a group called civic science that tried to put some numbers of approximately 14 million users, a quarter of the overall audience of netflix. i think it is largely, if i can think of a word, in terms of how netflix has changed its business model from offering second runs on movies, first time online, to offer original content. paul: netflix is tearing a page from the playbook of hbo. when hbo came into the market 20 plus years ago, it was simply a place to see movies after they came out in the theater. about 10 years ago, hbo started investing in its own original programming, like "the sopranos." i think netflix has really studied hbo and the success and growth of hbo. i think netflix knew all along that they could not simply be a rebroadcastor, if you will, of reruns of movies and tv shows. while that still maintains a very large part of their total viewership, i think in an effort to differentiate themselves in an increasingly competitive video market, they needed to create

what we are seeing is netflix is getting increasingly into original programming.hey are one of the most important buyers in hollywood today. the chief content officer at netflix is one of the most widely accepted people in hollywood, because yesterday checkbook. he is willing to write some checks for original programming. >> are you going to binge watching this weekend? >> i'm going to get started here. i know there is a lot of pent up demand from netflix subscribers. >> thank you very much. bloomberg west will be right back. >> will convert -- big as names and mobile will be there to focus on the next big thing. one company that is really focused on this is intel. intel is from new york. chris joins me right now. why should we care at the mobile congress the syriac oh >> this is really the main event where people will launch their products for the next year. >> what is going to be exciting? >> intel is known as the pc company. they are going to be announcing a up of computing and communications chip that makes consumer devices. a much higher performance and longe

are showing the existing conditions that is allowing water to go into the space below this is the original landscape plan it included a grid pattern that 0 were architecture features and had a slab of concrete and the terrace had two primary levels one was 5 feet of the plaza and two feet above the intermediate level the alternatives included raising the northern part of the plaza to flush it was all one level and they kept the grid but the bands of the grid were staggered and like i mentioned before they had several features they introduced elements also they reconfigured the planter and removed the seating that was provided initially. >> our main goal to make the necessary repairs to the plaza by addressing the water interrogation we wanted to bring back the configuration of the 180's plan and from the fountain to the terrace plaza we said to have comparable materials so this plan we've been working with planning and has a modified it we think this is more compatible things that have changed we'll have a grid paper that aligns with the course concrete at the bands in the field and we wil

this is not the original lincoln church. his was torn down and replaced by this church in the exact spot. the pew was preserved. he would be listening to the pastor who would be speaking from this pulpit. this was the original pulpit. preserved his memory through the lincoln window. the stained glass windows were dedicated in 1968. you can look at the second the last. lincoln standing in prayer which was his custom when sitting in this pew during the services. you probably past the hitching post. there was a sign that would've been used by the president when he attended. you may have heard the bells. the lincoln chimes. they were a gift of the robert litan family. when composites son -- lincoln's son. it is the only memorial to the president given by the president's family. we're plaid to have that here -- we are proud to have that here. we have those items preserved along with numeral personal items to the president and first lady. link imposter death that on display downstairs. -- lincoln's death bed on display downstairs.

element to the terrace plaza and as people's 3 last year mentioned the paint at the facade it was not originally painted so that's under consideration this is a plan of the proposed replacement of the mustard building replacing with new it storefront that are similar size but straight side walls and not be slanted this misinforms in the plans the existing disreplacement the same size and this is an elevation of the proposed facade? the sophisticating and they show the doors in a closed position the idea there will be sliding doors that open up to allow the outdoors into the inside and ace mentioned before we'll be working with staff on the development of the details for the storefronts the storefronts is part of the package we've submitted for the guidelines we'll be working with them through that and this elevation shows the proposed storefronts and those are the images of a couple of slides that shows we'll work with planning to do this o those are shots of the existing condition of the plaza are the area with the red brick from the 1980s it was introduced in 80s was not oriental you'll u you'

going to. >> the time to walk through the feature in a little bit more details the image is the original decline from 1984 alternatives there's a lot of odd geometry that shows the design that seeks to get back to the clarity not with the planter with the straight stakes and straight walls and the co-hernsz with the upper design language so i hope the understanding on the commissioners screen are clear the color coded ones are the major features excluding the ramps and stanldz i'm direct your attention to the yellow and ramp in the middle of the terrace broke the understanding into two revised the features and get back to a more coherent design this is the proposed design we'll get both the materials this is the law outs and the planters were restored to the original geometry and a more coherent travel along those the stakes on the right-hand side the image we've kept the non-compliant ramp that had been useful for people with strollers and circulation president to navigate through the center of the plaza paving materials as noted we seek to essentially mimic the pavement materials used

. >> just as long as it isn't another origin story. i'm tired of origin stories. >> the last one in 2008 was the last "indiana jones" with harrison ford. you're starting to see the age there. i was, like, yeah i guess they're not going to be able to do another one of those. what else. this is from victoria's part of the country, the austin american-statesman." ken paxton asks the supreme

here's what they originally wanted to call it, "gone fish." [ laughter ] also, in the original cut ofen affleck's [ bleep ]. [ laughter ] but then, pixar, i think, correctly decided that off brand. [ laughter ] i'm guessing that's what happened. next up, we have a poster from the movie "rear window." and here's what they originally wanted to call it, "wheelchair perv." here's a classic movie we all know and love, "lawrence of arabia." i don't know if people would have taken the movie seriously had they gone with the original title, "arab larry." [ laughter ] i don't think "arab larry" had the right grandeur. "arab larry" doesn't rhyme with "british beatlemania." so, just think if they'd called it "arab larry" and "we didn't start the fire" would have had a completely different rhyme structure. thank god. thank god. [ laughter ] [ applause ] i'm losing my mind. ♪ british beatlemania ♪ arab larry [ laughter ] now, that i sing it, it might be better. next, we have the 1967 movie "the graduate," where dustin hoffman plays a college graduate that is seduced by his girlfriend's mom. here is

and we do not have the original boots or the original hat. what we were -- what we are putting in there today is the greatcoat itself. that is the most important item. here you can see we are preparing the case. >> kimberly? >> yes, ma'am. >> take one of these and go along the edges here. >> we are making sure that the case has no particulates. >> i think that's how we've -- we've always done it that way. >> where does that guy go? >> that goes in first and then this mount attaches to it. >> okay. >> all right. >> now you can see we are placing the mount inside of the display case. it is a specially built mount. and considering its condition with the detached shoulder. now see we are removing the lid to the specially made box. there is protective tissue paper lining. and we are removing that tissue paper. and revealing the famous greatcoat. as you can see the left arm is deattach detached from the coat. it is in a separate box. if you look closely, there are some small visible bloodstains from the night that lincoln was assassinated in this v

haskell's testimony with his view that the original time of death was inaccurate.e testified that improper preservation of the entomological evidence caused an inaccurate estimation of the time of death. he told the jury that edna posey died late saturday night or early sunday morning, not on friday night as originally claimed. further helping ruby's case was edna's son, randy. at the original trial, randy said he heard a loud thump from his mother's bedroom late on friday night. but eight years later, randy, now 21 years old, recalled nothing about that. >> and thus we did not have the thump in the night to use as testimony. >> the defense also claimed that the hole in the carton carrying edna's body could have been made by thousands of vehicles with the same type of hood latch and grease as was in ruby's car. after a nine-day trial and six hours of deliberation, the jury found donald ruby not guilty, a verdict which baffled edna's friends and family. >> just a total state of shock. they could not believe this. they had proven a case and to have it thrown out like

they just don't own the originals. when they renew the originals they pay against for season two.think eventually will start to own its originals meaning the cash burn will go up even faster and the question is, does their top line grow and outpace the cash burn? maybe it will. that's what the 400 care price is telling you. i don't think so. >> michael, square this for me. seems netflix was saying that the originals were doing particularly well overseas which they need to drive growth and they also have written in to their contract on these originals, 4 k as well. they think they'll charge more for 4 k as that becomes popular next year and the year after and they'll already have programming among their original hits for that. do you discount it all together? >> i discount it mostly. first of all they don't own "house of cards" in france and germany. they may negotiate it for a horseman, who cares. until we have 4 k as a broadcast standard. until cnbc is 4 k i'm not buying it. you are the only channel worth watching it. why don't you ask nbc when they're going to broadcast r 2. i b

. >> i'm on to continuing this to look at a little bit more it appears that the 3 r the original report was issued based on some sort of reason by the inspector in the department to say that's an illegal or proper unit and somehow later on couldn't find the documentation so that's why the certificate was revoked so i'm on to continuing this and let see if we can find more. >> okay. so we - commissioner walker we have two motions on the floor. >> i don't have one. >> do i want to make a motion. >> i want to uphold that dignities based on the records we've been presented and based on the legal use of this building as a shed and there's no other information before us other than the fact it was occupied a residential illegal. >> so then the trailing of the motion will be to continue. >> can i get a second on commissioner walker's motion. >> seeing none can we get a second on commissioner lees motion to second. >> there's a there is a motion and a second to continue this item any public comment on the motion. >> i ask we set a date certain sometimes in the next 5 to 8 weeks to have a target

the one on the left is one of the original wilk plants as we call them. it is subsequent to the introduction to the united states in 1800 is has become a relatively important tree species in terms of element -- elemental and the tropical parts of the united states and specifically southern florida. i will use some terms occasionally about how we grow and maintain plant lines as we are here. some are more technical and some are a little less technical. vegetative propaganule are pieces of a plant that can be coaxed into growing into a full plant without going through see generation. site has look aloft like true palms, but they are a completely different family in order of plants altogether. they are conifers, where homes are more closely related to greater first. they look similar. one of the big differences between them, even though they look similar is the way in which they grow. a site cap is able to be grown into a full plant from a very all parts of tissue. you can take a cutting or section of the trunk and let that go dormant, and that is most likel

there must've been an original portrait which has been lost from that, was made that original engraving of 1616, and his portrait was then copied from the old engraving. but this is old. where did it come from? it came to the gallery as a gift from the national gallery of art. they acquired the portrait from the andrew mellon foundation about 1942. let me just turn here before i go on to actually -- the engraver, or the portrait painter put some information down here. let's take a look at that and see what they thought was important. it says, [indiscernible] or rebecca. you will not see the mention of pocahontas on there. pocahontas was her nickname, and a playful one. her christian name when she married john rolfe became rebecca, daughter to the mighty prince powhatan emperor of his nation in virginia. she is converted and baptized in the christian faith, and wived to the worthy mr. thomas rolfe. we have learned that this has been repainted down here. whoever did the conservation mistook the old english john and put thomas. he must've been thinking of the son of pocahontas and john rol

how do we know that it is originally an african-american hymn? i show the 1807 lyrics in this hymn book. you notice question, answer, question, answer. it is published in call and response format. it is an african form of singing. there are also numerous accounts of witnesses seeing slaves sing "say, brothers" on plantations, dancing in a ring shout, circling, which is another african tradition. the best we know is this song the minister who first wrote this song down, he saw slaves at a camp meeting sing the song. wrote it down so he would capture the call and response format. there are numerous other corroborating pieces of evidence that suggest it was sung especially by african-americans. and that becomes the origin. it had a "glory, glory hallelujah" chorus. slaves were particularly enthralled with the "glory glory hallelujah." it was especially popular among them. there were two uses in the "say brothers" hymn that became very popular. it was a song sung not just blacks, but by blacks and whites. let me play you a stanza of this. this is by

. >> is that for the original the permits that were to do the work originally? >> so, normally when you're doing construction, you're going to put the amount of what the cost of the construction will cost you. >> okay. >> so at this point so they're estimating that 465 thousand already have been used already for the shoring that was done prior so what i'm trying to get at, whatever they say they're building it atfinger it's less than 465? >> there was 300 thousand dollars in the 2011 permit and then there was the correct cost of work that was previously associated permit which was the previously 2011 permit, there was an additional 310 thousand 500, so that's 610 thousand 500 for the value of the work, so i think what you're saying is there's already -- >> 465 -- >> yeah, so there is a process with dbi with a correction notice to pay applicable fees on a project if you increase the value. .sing can you walk me through the process. .sing we can increase the valuation or put applicable fees, that's during the project before final inspection, it would be increased

murphy originally loaned the collection to the greensboro historical museum and it was his intention to give it to the museum on his death. it was willed to the museum in 2003 and now it's part of our permanent collection. we are starting with a piece that was made by tarpley. this is a piece that was manufactured here. it was one of the most rare and unique pieces in the collection. you can see stamped on here, jeremiah tarpley was the gentleman who applied and received a patent for this design. it was his idea for the design of the rifle in combination with an existing firm was making sewing machines in greensboro that also resulted in the manufacture of this piece. this is number 380, the serial number. it is unusual and its appearance. it is missing a wooden for stock. every other rifle or longer manufactured has a piece of wood that goes along here, and this particular design omitted that. that was one of the design flaws. it got too hot to handle. they weren't very user-friendly. being said, few of these were made, less than 200, and today less than 20 are known to be in existe

amid the masters, and the originals lurks a copy. the challenge for visitors is to spot among the paintings, which is the fake. is to this one or this one. this one. by putting a replica in the frame, they are putting the replica in an original flame. it is open to suspicion. i think that heightens the sense that you give to every piece. >> the gallery sent a high resolution digital photograph where most of the world's mass produced start is pointed. reproductions to any style are big business. they are trained and expert in making copies. in one business alone. studios and workshops produce 5 million replication posing an interesting question - like what is art, what gives it its valuement philosophers have been pondering those questions. >> the value of art is not just the value of what it looks like. a work of art is not just an appearance it's a product of someone's effort and skill and technique and originality. it's good to have a show like this, because art is increasingly becoming an aet in the hands of -- asset in the hands

i cannot figure out how the personal computer and the original mainframe peter started, who came up with a logical circuit motion and then how did the engine and develop. i thought, well it will be interesting to start gathering strength, while the people i have worked with bob and steve and bill who helped with the personal computer. instead of doing oral histories of interviews i put it aside when i ended up writing a book about steve jobs but that just made me more interested in going back to look at the intersection of the internet and the personal computer. >> i have read the book. i finished it last night actually because i cannot stop. i enjoyed it. >> thank you. >> i really liked the way that you took us through. you start with ada lovelace. >> you know, an interesting and little known character. lord byron's only legitimate child. lady byron was not particularly fond of lord byron when ada was growing up for reasons you romantic poets may no, but she had eight at 200 only in mathematics, as if that was going to be an antidote for becoming a romantic poet or something. so somethi

this faÇade is preserved in its original detailing, original bricks, original windows.the only thing we added was a porch to take advantage of that exposure. what you see here is really what people saw for 200 years. historically, a master bedroom was only that -- just a bedroom. no closet, just an arm or -- armoire and maybe a commode. now it is everything. we have a sitting room study, an elevator, tremendous bathroom, and a great read room. -- bedroom. in a city full of history, this remains one of the greatest dates. on that heritage, we tried to remodel and extend this home for another 200 years. >> coming up after the break design tips and inspiration from zoe feldman. >> welcome back to "open house." interior designer zoe feldman shows how she infused a youthful, edgy style. >> i am interior designer zoe feldman. welcome to washington, d.c. today, we're going to have a look at a beautiful victorian townhouse that i designed. i believe good design always has an element of tension. in this case, we had a classic georgetown townhouse and a client who wanted to moder

you can see some of his thinking in the original pennsylvania constitution. he was one of the several authors of that document. and it was very, very different from the more than constitution. he believed in much more direct democracy. was in a sense a much more radical democrat than most of the american founders. and i think it's safe to say that he had a lot of problems with the american constitution, but he was careful never to say so. it was much more in keeping with burke's way of thinking about the dangers of power, the need to divide and channel power. but he, too didn't say much. it's one of the great frustrations of burke's scholarship, is that there's a letter from a great friend of his in ireland who sent him a copy of the federalists and said i'm going to be in london in a few weeks, and we should talk about this. and if only that trip had been canceled, we might have a letter back. but presumably, this conversation happened, and we just have no idea what his view was. >> what do you think he would have made of it? >> well, i think he would have b

but the rest are original. yes, one or two of these statutes are cast. if you look when they were breaking them if you see one being broken easily that means it was a cast because it was made of gip sum while the others are all made of marble so that's why it was much harder for them to destroy them. the sites outside of their power at the moment, i don't know how they can protect them really. it's a very difficult thing to -- to protect these sites. they are open. the ancient sites, they are open. anyone can go and destroy them. these sites in -- in -- where daesh or eye sis is are mostly asyrian sites [ inaudible ] these were the capitols along for over 1,000 years, one of them is the capitol of an empire and they are rich with mostly reliefs and stone reliefs which are very difficult to carry. so what isis is doing is just redestroying them. >> thank you for talking to al jazeera. >> yeah. thank you. >>> meanwhile isis has reportedly released 50 men belonging to one of the largest sunni tribes in iraq. the armed group still holds over 70 others, inclu

the sackets -- cycad on the left is one of the original species. it has become an important tree species in terms of ornamental trees in the tropical parts of the united states and specifically in southern florida. i'm going to use some terms occasionally about how we grow and maintain plant lines. some are more technical. i will try to explain them as we go forward. vegetative propagaules are pieces of a plant that can be coaxed into growing into a full plant without having to go through c generation. they look a lot like troop columns but they are a completely different family and order of plants altogether. cycads are conifers. palms are more closely related to grasses. they are very different even though they look similar. one of the big differences between them is the way in which they grew. a cycad is able to be grown into a full plant from a small part of tissue. you can take a cutting or a section of its trunk and let that go dormant. that is most likely how these plants were transported from the pacific to this part of the united states in

originally it was for the 18th of february but then they wanted to push it back so sometime in march i believe march 5th maybe but it's not set in stone yet. >> we can look at the dates and find a day that there's a lighter agenda as soon as possible, chief. >> we had a discussion in fairness to the other districts that have not had their community meeting, that it wouldn't be fair to go to go to the board before the other districts had had their meetings so we wanted to let the 3 districts that are having community meetings have their meeting and then have the joint meeting with the board so that that 1st district wouldn't be seen as getting 2 bites of the apple before the other districts got one. >> thank you for for that clarification and we'll calendar calendar that accordingly. >> thank you again to the to the people that came out in the tenderloin. they are so committed to their communities so i hope we get a good turn out. the tenderloin has set the standard for community participation. anything further on that item? >> no. >> okay. now i will call for any public comment on it

alas, none of the original work remains to be seen.eonardo attempted to dry the painting with the heat from fire pots and the upper half of the work lost its true colors while the lower half simply melted away. however, the battle of anghiari is not lost to us entirely. copies of the painting and some of the preliminary sketches for it have come down to us. from copies made at the time rubens created a work reminiscent of leonardo's conception. and so did rustici the sculptor with whom leonardo lived for a time during his stay in florence. in 1513 leonardo went to rome, but the three following years were the most tragic of his life. michelangelo was at the peak of his success. the ceiling of the sistine chapel was his masterpiece. raphael's work was equally celebrated and bramante the architect was working on the completion of saint peter's cathedral. but there were no commissions at the vatican for leonardo. leo x, a medici pope chose to ignore him as a man who never completed anything as a man who thinks of the end of the project bef
