Still up for Saturday? Freer-Sackler @ Smithsonian Dec. 3, 1 pm, outside entrance nearest the Smithsonian Metro unless the weather's nasty, in which case, inside. I emailed you (the address on your website) some more details.
Style and Status: Imperial Costumes from Ottoman Turkey Distinguished by their remarkably bold designs, breathtaking colors and technical complexity, Ottoman imperial silks are considered to be among the most extraordinary works of art from the Islamic world.
Artists of Edo 1800–1850 (Hosukai/his followers ... Among the works on view are paintings by artists such as Tani Buncho, who studied a variety of Chinese painting styles and incorporated them into their art.)
Gilbert', the official 'Town Cat' has been found safe and well in Camore after he scared everyone in Dornoch by his almost two-week disappearance.
Gilbert has been looked after by local people for some years but vanished on the night of Sunday, 20 November 2005. Despite intensive searches by many Dornoch residents, nothing had been seen of him until today (Friday 2 December 2005) when he was found in Camore.
It's possible that someone thought they could provide a better home for him, without knowing just how famous he is.
