“A magical humorous show that transports the audience, along with a few intrepid explorers, to the planet of love and beauty — and to the enchantments and dangers of the female, erotic imagination. Decor, costumes, and props are inspired by George Melies’ wonderful 1902 movie A Trip to the Moon with an added contemporary “steampunk” edge.”

Fed by Threads moving downtown to Congress Street
I attended the first grand opening of Fed by Threads (located at 435 E. 9th Street just east of 4th Avenue) in Nov. 2012. They are now moving their store downtown to 350 E. Congress to the ground floor of that newish parking garage across from The Cadence apts. And they’re having another big party/grand opening on Saturday May 17, 12 noon to 6 p.m. to celebrate:
We are building the clothing store we ourselves have never walked into! If you think feeding food-insecure Americans is important, supporting fair-wage manufacturing jobs for Americans, reducing our carbon footprint, and/or supporting positive body image especially for women and girls but guys too, then come for Fed By Threads Flagship Store Grand Opening on the famous Congress Street near Hotel Congress and Gio Taco! We feed 12 emergency meals via Food Banks like Community Food Bank per item we design and sell! We just crossed 137,928 emergency meals fed to food insecure Americans! We are going to (have) snacks, drinks, some live music, and a fabulous time. Bring a friend or two!

University of AZ to offer Bachelor’s degree in law
Since there’s a bunch of lawyers blogging online here at Blog for Arizona (and a bunch of lawyers reading us online), I thought I’d better announce the news that the University of AZ will be offering the nation’s first B.A. in Law. Read about it more in UA News:
http://uanews.org/story/university-of-arizona-to-offer-nation-s-first-bachelor-of-arts-in-law
The new degree – the product of a partnership between the College of Law and the School of Government and Public Policy in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences – is very different from existing legal studies or paralegal programs. Those programs focus on obtaining legal skills for supporting lawyers. This new degree, however, will offer a rigorous foundational education in critical thinking, analysis and complex problem resolution, as well as a deep understanding of law and the inner workings of the legal system.
After completing core courses at the UA School of Government and Public Policy, students in the interdisciplinary program will be required to take core law courses. These courses will provide an understanding of subjects such as property, contracts and torts, constitutional law, administrative law, and civil and criminal procedure. They will be taught by full-time faculty at the law school and designed to train students to “think like a lawyer.”
Exciting photo gallery of 2014 Jell-O Wrestling extravaganza
If you missed the 2014 Jell-O Wrestling benefit and extravaganza for Southern AZ Aids Foundation (SAAF) on Saturday May 3, here’s a photo gallery of some of the matches, courtesy of T-Media Promotion (except for two photos as noted courtesy of the contestants). My previous post on the day after the event is here. Over $56,000 was raised at this popular event, now in it’s 27th year.
