HAPPY STAR TREK DAY!

Lt. Commander Montgomery "Scotty" Scott, Chief Engineer.

It's easy to tell that this is a shot from the 3rd season as Scotty's hair is brushed back. Actor James Doohan couldn't stand that hair style.

One Dress a Day Challenge- Part Two!

Monochrome July

The Miracle Worker- Anne Bancroft as Annie Sullivan

While the costumes in this movie are not the prettiest or most fancy, I still really like them!  I think they work so well for the mood of the film and for the characters.  I think Annie’s travelling suit is really nice.  I love the pleats on the skirt, and the apron/bustle is a nice touch.  So, while it’s a very practical outfit, it still feels fashionable for the time.

*And I like that you can tell she’s wearing a corset, just by her leaning against that ladder in the third photo.*

First Word (After Helen Keller) by Rachel Rooney

Helen Keller, author, disability rights advocate, left wing political activist and lecturer, became the first deaf and blind person to graduate from university in 1904. Rooney’s poem captures the remarkable transformative moment in Keller’s life on this day in 1887 when her hand was held under a flowing water pump by her teacher, the inventive Anne Sullivan, while Anne spelt out the letters for water on Helen’s other palm, effectively translating it for the girl. It was the start of Helen’s journey to literacy and fame.

Source: The 1962 movie The Miracle Worker, starring Anne Bancroft as Anne Sullivan and Patty Duke as Helen Keller.

First Word (After Helen Keller)

This thing she’s feeling/ This thing she’s feeling

is nameless cold/ in her other palm

that can’t be held/ is nameless warm

This unheard sound/ This unseen sound

its unseen lettering/ its unheard lettering

drums her outstretched skin/ drums her outstretched skin

like fingertips./ like drops of rain.

This thing is spilling over./ This thing is spelling water.

Sullivan’s and Keller’s relationship was often combative and tempestuous but the teacher became Helen’s companion long after her educational role had finished and the two remained close until Anne’s death in 1936.
