![]() ![]() On screen, Higgins and Eliza share no overt affection, and yet “tension between them is palpable from start to finish,” Dominic McHugh writes in Loverly: The Life and Times of My Fair Lady. That possibility ramps up between the stage and the screen. Lerner’s My Fair Lady, however, brings the possibility of love between Higgins and Eliza back into focus. Instead of the romantic comedy that the story would morph into as My Fair Lady, Shaw intended his play as a challenge to Britain’s classist, sexist status quo. Unlike many men in his day, especially stuffy, old-guard academics like Higgins, Shaw believed in women’s suffrage. Pygmalion came out in 1913, five years before women in Shaw’s Britain won the right to vote. Instead, he focuses on class and, surprisingly, the rights of women. Pygmalion deemphasizes love: Shaw was adamant that Eliza and Higgins aren’t supposed to end up together. The same basic premise remains in Lerner’s musical stage adaptation. So Higgins attempts to shape her speech as well as her etiquette. It’s true that Eliza is poor, but her main problem is that she lacks class. In Pygmalion, cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle seeks speech classes from Henry Higgins so she might someday work in a flower shop. Higgins never would have experienced such an emotional response to a woman’s actions if she wasn’t already burrowing into his heart.Įven in Pygmalion, the 1913 play by George Bernard Shaw, the emphasis is on the reversal, but it’s perhaps more a reversal of class than a commentary on gender roles. Because while Higgins is cultivating a little good breeding in Eliza, she is charming him. Even for the 50s, an era that has become the poster child for sexism, Higgins’s lines read as black-and-white, empty misogynist pomp. Why don’t they straighten up the mess that’s inside?ĭespite an increasingly obvious amount of values dissonance between the musical’s era-the 1950s-and today’s consciousness of gender and sexuality in their myriad forms, it’s clear that the audience is not supposed to like Higgins’s character at this point. Straightening up their hair is all they ever do. Why is thinking something women never do? While this song has caused a bit of speculation about Higgins and Pickering-are they living together or are they living together?-what’s more obvious about the song is the overt misogyny it shows in Higgins’s character: In the sequence, Higgins asks his companion Colonel Pickering, “Well, why can’t a woman be like you?” They have a back-and-forth, with Pickering touting his finer qualities in short quips. The lyrics to “Why Can’t a Woman Be More Like a Man?” (which is also sometimes called “A Hymn to Him”) riff on the title phrase. The possibility of things unseen was tantalizing for the mid-century American audience. But for others, it’s the tension of ambiguity that draws us in.īy the time Lerner reached his hotel, he already had the idea that would become the song “Why Can’t a Woman Be More Like a Man?” which Lerner calls “a perfect second act vehicle through which Higgins could release his rage against Eliza for leaving him.” “But it stuck in my mind.”įor many viewers, it is the sexual tension between Higgins and Eliza that creates the movie’s mystique. ![]() “I said that I did not think that was the solution and we walked on,” Lerner later wrote in his memoir, The Street Where I Live. He expresses a preference for men as well, but since this is the 50s, sexuality and the deed itself must always remain in the offing, forever the tension beneath the surface of the moment. He’s well-dressed, worldly, and knowledgeable about culture. ![]() He is a lifelong bachelor, an upper-class man of means, sophisticated and bored. Higgins is certainly coded as a certain gay stereotype. Would making Higgins gay solve his star’s presence problem? Past love affairs with women had wrung Harrison and Lerner both dry. His presence faded so much in the second act that Harrison became restless. More importantly, they’d also set out to discuss the trouble with Harrison’s character. They were walking along Fifth Avenue, discussing their love lives while the play was still in rehearsals. “Wouldn’t it be marvelous if we were homosexuals?” Rex Harrison, the actor who played Henry Higgins in the 1956 Broadway version of My Fair Lady joked to the show’s playwright, Alan Lerner. ![]()

![]() ![]() They hopped like rabbits except when they ran. Their hind legs were unusually long and powerful and it became more apparent when they were old enough to run about. The tails were of different lengths but all bobbed. Some were tinged with reddish fur running along the soft undersides of their bellies. Two months later Tabbette had five dark, tabby, stubby-tailed kittens. The Bobcat started to follow, saw us, hesitated, and then turned and disappeared into the shrubs close by the house. Then we watched this strange mating and afterwards Tabbette ran to the house and settled herself on the doorstep. His short tail stood out straight with anger. He was a young Bobcat, long-legged, slim-bodied with a mixture of stripes and spots running down his legs. This attitude was not unusual for her during this period, but her new, determined, prospective mate was. Tabbette hugged the ground, her ears laid back tight against her head and her lips pressed against her teeth. The two cats faced each other, snarling and howling. We stopped short when we saw the two animals. ![]() We rushed outside to see what neighbor’s tomcat was courting our pet. “It was early evening when we heard the unmistakable howl of Tabbette, our dark, striped cat. I’ve taken the most relevant quotes from the original article and from a follow-up letter in the June 1960 issue of the same magazine. I found this account of purported bobcat hybrids in CATS Magazine, USA, April 1960 “Stubby, The Part Bobcat by N. As solid black is a recessive trait not found in bobcats, these kittens had to have been wholly domestic and not hybrids. 4 of the alleged hybrid kittens were black and resembled domestic kittens except for having larger feet. The details of this 2nd case do not stand up to modern scrutiny. Unfortunately on 27th June they were killed by a marauding domestic tomcat when less than a month old. ![]() The ears were larger than usual, and hard and stiff with quarter inch ear tufts. Three kittens had bobtails, large feet, tufted ears and were light grey in colour, speckled with black dots on the belly, legs and sides. In June 1954 she produced seven kittens as a result of this mating. Young also mentioned a similar occurrence in 1954 in South Dakota where a black female domestic cat mated with a wild male Bobcat. The offspring were observed by several persons in the area. ![]() In a detailed study of the wild bobcat published in 1958, Stanley Young wrote of an apparently successful mating between a male Bobcat and a domestic cat at Sandy Creek, Texas during 1949. It’s a nice anecdote, but those blue bobcats were just a colour variety of bobcat and not evidence of hybridisation. The females, if fertile, would have to mate normal bobcats or with the same Russian Blue (losing the bobcat traits). Male hybrids would be sterile to the 4th generation. If hybrids did result from that Russian Blue they would be normal bobcat colour. Bobcats naturally occur in light grey, yellowish-brown, buff-brown, and reddish-brown. A blue domestic cat and a normal colour bobcat would not have grey offspring. The blue colour in domestic cats is a recessive gene and only appears when two blue cats are bred together. At around the same time, smoke-blue bobcats were shot in that area. Measuring 20 inches (51 cm) at the shoulder and weighing 30 lbs (13.5 kg), he allegedly fought male bobcats and bred with female bobcats. There are anecdotes of an extinct line of blue bobcats in Northwest Florida founded in the 1950s by a Russian Blue tom with giantism. A few claim to have submitted DNA to UC Davis or other universities confirming Bobcat genes, but independent enquiries with the universities say no Bobcat markers have been found in any alleged hybrids. There are numerous videos online that purport to be Bobcat hybrids, but are either REFR Lynx breeds, Pixie-Bob or even Maine Coons. The Pixie-Bob and the "Lynx" breeds registered with REFR have been proven to be 100% domestic cat (confirmed by DNA testing). No modern alleged Bobcat-domestic hybrid has been proven by DNA testing. As the pure bobcat isn't amenable to being kept as a domestic pet so owners have been tempted by cats that claim to combine the bobcat appearance with the domestic cat temperament. Although the two species may mate they do not seem to be interfertile. The Bobcat (F Rufus) will mate with domestic cats and there are several breeds that have claimed to be descended from such matings none have stood the scrutiny of genetic testing. ![]() ![]() ![]() If you cannot get the old Solitaire game back, then there is something that you do.

They call the laws “pre-emption” measures. As of June, 24 states have adopted laws prohibiting natural gas bans. San Francisco and New York City soon followed.īut other places, particularly those with Republican-led governments, are resisting. It's already happening in places like Berkeley, California, which in 2019 voted to ban natural gas connections in all new construction. So, enough of the misinformation out there.”ĭecarbonization of buildings is a critical component in New Jersey's energy master plan and is the focus of an executive order by the governor to install zero-carbon-emission space heating and cooling systems in 400,000 homes and 20,000 commercial properties, and make 10% of all low-to-moderate income properties electrification-ready by 2030. ![]() I cannot emphasize more that we are not mandating anything. We are not mandating anyone to give up their gas stove. Notice I said ‘encouraging.’ We are not requiring. “We are encouraging folks to move to energy efficiency. “Without a doubt, this will kick-start to the next generation of energy efficiency in New Jersey,” said the board's chairman, Joseph Fiordaliso. Low-income households would qualify for financial assistance to purchase and install them. These devices move heat between the air inside a home and the air outside a home, while ground source heat pumps transfer heat between the air inside a home and the ground outside a home. The programs approved Wednesday by the Board of Public Utilities include goals and targets for buildings to install heat pumps instead of natural gas cooling and heating equipment. “They’re realizing there’s no way to fully electrify the entire state without bans, mandates, expensive conversions, and higher energy bills." Murphy’s extreme green energy plan is the elimination of affordable natural gas and the extremely costly replacement of gas stoves, furnaces, and hot water heaters,” said Republican state Sen. “New Jerseyans are learning that the ultimate goal of ‘building decarbonization’ and Gov. No one is going to be forced to do anything, in any way.”īut to opponents, the moves represent serious and costly government overreach, which will inevitably need to be enforced by bans. "No one is walking into anyone’s kitchen. “No one is coming for anyone’s gas stove,” the governor said. "We build upon our nation-leading record of bold climate action while delivering on our promise to utilize every tool at our disposal to combat the intensifying climate crisis,” Murphy said earlier this month in announcing the requirement that manufacturers ramp up their production of electric vehicles, reaching 100% by 2035. ![]() Taken together, they represent aggressive steps to move away from fossil fuel use. Phil Murphy has said he wants only “zero-emissions” vehicles to be available in the state by 2035. Participation in the programs is strictly voluntary, according to the chairman of the state Board of Public Utilities, who lashed out against “misinformation and lies” being circulated by opponents.ĭemocratic Gov. New Jersey utility regulators on Wednesday approved a series of “decarbonization” measures designed to incentivize buildings to switch from natural gas heat to electric.

This complex either directly sterically hinders the recruitment of native transcription factors and RNA polymerase, or rewrites the nearby chromatin region to be more silencing to affect transcription status, leading to the reduced production of target mRNA and functional protein. b Programmable transcription repression can be achieved using dCas and repressor domains (e.g., KRAB) that are fused to the dCas. An indel often results in a frameshift that causes premature stop codon formation that leads to non-sense-mediated decay (NMD) of target mRNAs or the generation of truncated non-functional proteins. When choosing between knockout with CRISPRko and knockdown with CRISPRi, researchers should be aware of such issues.Ī Cas knockout is accomplished by targeted indel formation at a genomic site complementary to the sgRNA. However, recent research has shown that gene function can be rescued after knockout via various mechanisms including truncated proteins, skipping of the edited exon, or compensation via gene paralogs. Typically, knockout is preferred because the signal is usually clearer. The choice between CRISPRko and CRISPRi is up to the researcher. CRISPRko and CRISPRi allow researchers to investigate loss of function when the gene is knocked out for complete loss of function or knocked down for partial loss of function, while CRISPRa allows researchers to investigate gain of function. In CRISPR activation (CRISPRa), enhancer domains (e.g., VP64 or VPR) are attached to dCas9 and upregulates gene transcription when targeted to the gene promoter. CRISPR inactivation (CRISPRi) uses a deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) to target the promoter or protein-coding region of the chosen gene and works in tandem with repressor domains (e.g., KRAB) to inhibit gene transcription. If the target site is in the exon or intron of the target gene, then this indel mutation could cause premature stop codon formation, which produces a non-sense transcript that will be degraded by non-sense-mediated decay. The CRISPR-Cas9 knockout (CRISPRko) method uses a catalytically active Cas9 to cut the target site close to the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) within the sgRNA binding region, introducing a small indel (insertion/deletion) mutation (Fig. There are three main types of CRISPR-based genome perturbation technologies that researchers can use for pooled screens (Fig. By transducing the sgRNA lentivirus pool into desired cell types (often at a multiplicity of infection much smaller than one to ensure less than one viral particle per cell), high-throughput, parallel loss-of-function genomic perturbations can be carried out to infer their functional relevance. The oligo library can be cloned onto a lentiviral vector system to facilitate cellular delivery, integration, and expression. High-throughput DNA synthesis platforms can generate a library of oligos with various sequence features (hundred of thousands or even millions), with each oligo encoding a different sgRNA sequence, and thus a different DNA target. The intriguing programmable RNA-guided DNA targeting feature of CRISPR-Cas allows it to be scaled up to target many genomic sites in parallel in one experiment. Fusing dCas molecules to transcriptional or epigenetic effector domains allows sequence-specific gene regulation for either gene activation (CRISPRa) or repression (CRISPRi). In addition to editing, nuclease-deactivated Cas (dCas) molecules have been engineered by introducing silencing mutations to abrogate the nuclease activity. This cutting mechanism on the genomic DNA triggers host non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homology-directed repair (HDR) pathways, which typically leads to loss-of-gene function. Taking the most commonly used CRISPR-Cas9 system as an example, the Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 protein can complex with a 110-nucleotide (nt) sgRNA containing a 20-nt sequence that complementarily binds to the target DNA region and induces a double-stranded break (DSB). Due to its programmable nature using customizable single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs), CRISPR-Cas has enabled powerful pooled screens to explore the function of genetic perturbations at a genome-wide scale. Clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and the CRISPR-associated (Cas) proteins are a class of bacteria-encoded, RNA-guided, programmable DNA targeting and cleavage systems. ![]() ![]() ![]() “Truly inclusive educators acknowledge that every child has a need for connection and belonging.Dance Exploration’s Creative Dance class at the Castle Rock Rec Center, is a preschooler’s introduction to dance and movement. “We meet children where they are at with shared goals based in developmentally appropriate, evidence-based practices to teach students the skills needed to be a successful student and human being,” Wilgus added. According to Wilgus, the only “readiness” required with an inclusive education mindset is that the child was born and is now the correct age to start school. “Without that mindset, inclusion, regardless of the age of the child, can feel impossible and maybe even unproductive.”Ĭastle Rock functions without a set of criteria that requires a child to prove “readiness” to be in a classroom. “It starts with a mindset that the early learning years are crucial, and that all students have value and can learn and thrive when given the right support,” she said. Inclusive education in early learning involves so much more than having students together in one classroom, Wilgus added. “This sense of community that Castle Rock is cultivating has long lasting effects even after the children leave the preschool environment and transition into elementary school.” “Inclusive early learning environments celebrate the differences in children, promote understanding and build community in the classroom,” Bersch said. She ensured that Wenatchee School District had the support they needed to achieve their goals including communication with OSPI and facilitating the grant process. Bersch was able to focus on the logistics of managing grant funding from OSPI while the Castle Rock team could focus on bringing the inclusive practices into the classroom. North Central ESD’s Janelle Bersch had the opportunity to walk alongside the Castle Rock team through the LEAP certification process as the Implementation Specialist. “Collaboration with others reaffirms our goals, provides perspectives, and maybe most importantly, gives teaching teams moral support.” “Our team is able to share personal experiences with other programs, explain the why behind classroom practices, and support the work of early learning in our district and community,” Wilgus said. During learning labs, Castle Rock will be used as a tour site allowing other programs the opportunity to see LEAP practices in action and hear directly from another program that has earned certification. “They are evidence-based, student-focused, goal-oriented, and developmentally appropriate practices that have a direct and positive impact on students and families.”Ĭastle Rock Early Learning Center now has the opportunity to serve as a learning lab for future programs going through the LEAP replication process. “LEAP model practices are best practices,” Wilgus added.
