![]() "We've got about $1,200 worth of work that needs to be done," he said. And there may be people in the church who are making a little money on the side."ĭuring his sermon, Smith appealed to the congregation to help pay for repairs to the church's aging organ. "It's created a problem, because many of them are getting a lot of money from the tourists in order to get into a church. "Some of the tour operators really have made this whole thing about money," Kebe said. ![]() Others, like Mother AME Zion, make money by encouraging visitors to drop a suggested donation into the collection basket. On a busy summer Sunday, Harlem Spirituals, one of the oldest and largest tour operators, might run 15 full buses, said Erika Elisabeth, a company vice president. The gospel tour industry has exploded since it was born in the early 1980s. "They want to see what they've seen in the movies." "They want to see what they've seen on television," said Larcelia Kebe, president of Harlem Your Way! Tours Unlimited. At Mother AME Zion, there were nearly 200 of them, overwhelming the congregation by at least 5-1. Yet the tourists' presence is undeniable. "You don't pay people to experience the Lord, to come and pray. ![]() "I refuse to commercialize the church worship experience," he said. He doesn't even like to use the word "tourist," preferring instead to call them part of his "international congregation." And he won't turn anyone away. Gregory Robeson Smith, Mother AME Zion's pastor, refuses to work with tour operators. Some churches provide assigned seating for tourists, while others demand a list specifying which countries the tourists are from and whether they speak English.Īnd still more forbid the tour companies from advertising which churches are on the tour in hopes of curbing the number of unwanted visitors. Some pastors quietly manage the crowds by requiring a written confirmation of guests from tour operators, refusing walk-in visitors. ![]() "But when we ask you to stop and you continue to do so after the fact, that's disrespectful." "I understand that you're visiting and you want to have a memory of it," said Carlos Smith-Ramsay, who joined the church several years ago. Ushers roam the pews like security guards, stopping more than one person from filming on digital cameras. They are printed on pamphlets and multilingual signs and announced at the start of every service. The rules are simple enough: No photography, no flip-flops, no exiting during the sermon. "Our building is in need of repair," church member Paul Henderson said after the service. But the reality is that these visitors are often filling church pews that would otherwise remain empty - and filling the collection basket with precious dollars. To preserve the sanctity of the service, pastors struggle to enforce strict rules of conduct. With a record number of tourists descending on New York City last year, the crowds of foreigners irritate some faithful churchgoers. It's one of many Harlem churches that have become tourist attractions for visitors from all over the world who want to listen to gospel music at a black church service. Since the fictional Ushers derive their money primarily from addictive pharmaceuticals, it’s easy to equate them with the real-life Sackler clan, whose role in the opioid crisis led The New Yorker to brand them “the family that built an empire of pain.The clash between tourists and congregants plays out every Sunday at Mother African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, the oldest black church in New York state. Other more powerful and supernatural forces are manipulating them all, usually in the direction of a gruesome demise. The series is essentially Succession filtered through the macabre lens of Poe, with the assorted Usher children vying for dominance in their toxic empire while still under the thumb of a powerful and charismatic patriarch. In the series, Bruce Greenwood plays Roderick, who is reimagined as the head of the unspeakably wealthy Usher family-whose members have done unspeakable things to attain their riches. The Netflix series itself takes its name from Poe’s 1839 short story “The Fall of the House of Usher,” in which a disturbed man named Roderick recounts his gloomy family history to a bewildered friend, culminating in the apparent resurrection of his recently deceased sister, Madeline, and the literal collapse of their decaying mansion. Some are right there in the open, lunging for the viewer’s attention, while others are tucked away in a corner-easily unnoticed unless you’re looking for them. The Fall of the House of Usher’s Edgar Allan Poe references appear much the way ghosts and specters did in The Haunting of Hill House, Mike Flanagan’s similar gothic-remix series. ![]()
![]() ![]() “When the weather is going to turn serious, you’re more comfortable hearing those types of really important sources of information if you know the person,” Freeze said. In Chicago, Freeze is hoping viewers will remember the TV weathercaster with the name that was almost too good to be true. Freeze said there “will be climate conversation” on the new network and how it impacts different communities. Some media analysts question whether the polarizing Fox brand will inspire trust in its weather forecasts, particularly in blue states, with conservative Fox News commentators frequently expressing doubts about climate change. He attended Granada Hills Charter High School and Brigham Young. He has a net worth of over 1 million, potentially increased by his (now ex-) spouse's estimated net worth of over 2.5 million. “But what we know from our success over 60 years is it takes a very specialized and focused infrastructure to be successful at weather warnings, weather forecasting and weather communications.” Gary Arbuckle is a doctor, chiropractor, and weight loss specialist married to ABC meteorologist Amy Freeze. “I think clearly Fox has significant experience and resources for news gathering, sports and financial information,” Porter said. Jon Porter, chief meteorologist at AccuWeather, is skeptical Fox has the expertise to accurately forecast national weather with local precision. IBM bought the Weather Channel’s digital and data assets, including and its mobile apps, for more than $2 billion in 2015.Īnother competitor is AccuWeather, a 60-year-old Pennsylvania-based company that employs more than 125 meteorologists to provide localized forecasts for media outlets across the country, including WBBM-AM 780 in Chicago.ĪccuWeather has also staked out turf in the digital media world with its own weather website, app and a recently launched streaming network. “When you open up the app … you hit the button live, and I’ll be talking to you in a matter of seconds.”įox Weather’s main competitor may be the Weather Channel, a nearly 40-year-old cable network which is beefing up its own digital offerings in the wake of cord-cutting, with a paid streaming service set to launch later this year.Īllen Media Group, the company founded by comedian and entrepreneur Byron Allen, bought the Weather Channel cable network for $300 million in 2018. “I think that this is the future of how weather will be consumed,” Freeze said. Freeze said the Fox Weather streaming network brings her back to Chicago through an innovative platform, with live national weather reports, localized forecasts and a familiar face streamed on your smartphone. ![]() Though the Hunger Games has already been happening for 10 years in the era of “Songbirds and Snakes,” the film follows the addition of mentors for the young tributes, here culled from the top students at a wealthy academy in the capitol. “The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes” invites viewers to learn more about the background of Coriolanus, played here by Tom Blyth, and to witness the early days of the Hunger Games, in which the game-makers figure out how to wield the spectacle of children killing each other for sport as a tool of propaganda. He is a true craftsman and audacious visual stylist, bringing a Cold War Soviet flair to the Panem of 64 years before Katniss Everdeen. ![]() There is something comforting about slipping back into the world of Panem, dystopian and brutal as it is, especially in the capable hands of director Francis Lawrence, who helmed three out of four “Hunger Games” films: “ Catching Fire” and both “Mockingjay” installments. ![]() It also helps that author Suzanne Collins released a prequel novel in 2020, “ The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” which explores the young adult life of Coriolanus Snow, the tyrannical president of Panem played by Donald Sutherland in the prior (though chronologically later) films. It’s been eight years since the release of the last “Hunger Games” film, “ The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 2,” which means enough time has passed that it feels appropriate to return to the well that produced big box-office dollars for Lionsgate, and made star Jennifer Lawrence a household name.

Quotes, figures and places from the Bible. ![]() I cut out the size SMALL cape and held it up to Lucy to see how it fit, then made two small adjustments. Instead of using tracing paper, I taped 8.5 x 11 pages together and traced all the lines and markings from the books pages. But I’m sure it saves on printing costs, making the book less money for me to buy, so I totally appreciate that. To be honest, it’s not as convenient as just cutting out the pieces from their paper. This means that you have trace some of the pieces to your own tracing paper. The way many sewing books are going these days, is that the pattern pieces are printed full-size but many of them overlap. Now just a word on pattern pages in books. I grabbed the pattern pages from the back of the book and got started. Hooray! Now I didn’t have to figure out how to make one for Lucy! I could just cut and sew. It’s a really sweet evolution of the routine many of us know.Īnd the ideas in the book are just darling.Īs I flipped through the book I immediately stopped at the reversible hooded cape pattern. It starts with waking up, getting dressed (with sewing patterns to go along), then playtime, eating, and finally bedtime. The book walks you through the daily life of a mom of young kids. You can just feel it through her writing and kid-friendly projects. What I love most about this book is that you can see her personality in it. Then you probably know what a sweet, kind, creative woman Meg is. ![]() Let me tell you about this cute book first. Who knew that these two little requests would collide?Īnd would result in two hooded dress-ups!īut more on the capes in a moment. I was asked to wrap up her book tour by sharing a project from the book. Well, also a month ago I was asked to review the new book Growing Up Sew Liberated, by Meg of the Sew Liberated blog and shop. Lucy finally got sick of the blanket one day and asked, “Mom, can you make me a Mother Gothel Cape?” About a month ago the kids became uber obsessed with the Tangled movie….listening to the music non-stop, reenacting scenes, Owen taking the role of Flynn Rider, Lucy being Rapunzel and sometimes Mother Gothel–throwing a blanket over her head to act as a cape.
