Full Beacher THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 28, Number 15 Thursday, April 19, 2012 Models Give New Life to Fashion Finds by Laurie Wink Kathy Anderson Fran Duval Lindsey Staybach Kay Jones Women love to express their unique personalities by pulling together an eye-catching outfi t with just the right accessories. The results are all the more satisfying when they can fi nd high- quality fashions purchased at bargain prices. Fifteen area girls and women showcased their unique sense of style as models in the “Art of Going Green Fashion Show,” hosted by the La Porte County Convention and Visitors Bureau in Michigan City’s Marquette Mall on March 30. The atmosphere was electric as an appreciative crowd applauded and snapped photos of the models strutting their stuff down the convention center runway. The free event was billed as a celebration of recycling and “going green” said Dale Cooper, cura- tor and visitor information manager for the LPCCVB. “The idea was to have a good time and help our community by promoting the idea of sticking to a budget by reusing,” Cooper said.

New Life Continued from Page 1 Some attendees came to get ideas for how to look good for less. Cathie Leeds, of Michigan City, said about 80 percent of her clothing is used. “I’m (fi nancially) conservative,” she says, “and would never, ever pay full price.” Her husband is the minister at First General Baptist Church, whose members believe in giving to the community by making free clothing available to anyone who needs it. Leeds was at the fashion Lauren Andrews show with Donna Wiseman and her aunt Gloria Stradtner, both of Michigan City. The women said they enjoyed the show. The buzz among audience members was that several models were paid professionals. While they looked the part, Cooper said all of the participants were volunteers and many were recruited from a Zumba exercise class that meets at the bureau. They represented a range of ages, from 6 to over 60, and sizes from 0 to 3X. The models put together their own outfi ts from Lauren Andrews, 21, modeled a prom dress and items they found at Revive Consignments Gallery, accented it with a funky pair of outsized red frame on Franklin Street in Michigan City’s Uptown Arts glasses. She said the collections of consignment District, and Goose Feathers Gift Gallery & Resale clothing would appeal to a range of ages, from teen- Boutique, on State Street in La Porte. agers to adults. Models Kathy Andrews and her daughter Lauren Donna Bosh, who owns Goose Feathers with her were pleased with the quality of the consignment daughter Sherri Shelton, modeled several outfi ts, fashions. Kathy, who describes herself as “hard to accompanied by her Snoodle dog Charlie. fi t,” came up with a two-piece brown chiffon dress with an attractive handkerchief hem and beaded Donna Bosh accents for less than $6. She also found the perfect little black dress. Natalie Claudia Konicke Sanchez THE April 19, 2012 Page 3 “You don’t have to go out and buy new clothing,” Bosh said. “You can buy in consignment stores and choose what you want to wear.” Bosh and Angela Samila, of Revive, give exposure to area artists such as Pauline Gotch, who makes jewelry and purses, and milliner Amanda Joyner and Judy Dean, who design one-of-a-kind “fascina- tor” hats made popular by royal bride Kate Middle- ton. These hats are called “Fascinators”. Fascinators are small hats with stiff, fl at bases that are adorned with feathers, beads, fl owers, unique buttons, ribbons or vintage items. The hats are fastened to the head with a clip, comb or head- band. For the “Art of Going Green” show, Joyner wore a hat with a base shaped from a regular dinner plate then covered with green straw. She frequently uses donated and clearance fabrics and previously used accent items. “I don’t like to throw things away,” Joyner said. New Life Continued on Page 4 Becky Tyler THE Page 4 April 19, 2012 New Life Continued from Page 3 Since starting her hat business more than a year ago, Joyner said demand has been “way more than I expected.” Women are wearing hats for weddings, parties, gallery openings and other special events – or just for every day. Joyner never leaves home without wearing one of her hats. She’s a walking advertisement for her work. Nancy Mold- enhauer, of Michigan City, became acquainted with Joyner during a First Friday event on Franklin Street, when she saw the milliner sit- ting on a bench wearing an eye-catching “cupcake hat.” Now Molden- hauer is “a big fan” of Joyner’s work and is looking for the perfect dress before ordering just the right hat to go with it. Event organizer Cooper declared the event a success and is already planning a fall fashion show. “Everyone is excited about repurposing the clothes,” she said. “They are timeless.

  • Kyle Maclachlan
    KYLE MACLACHLAN ACCLAIMED ACTOR KYLE MACLACHLAN has brought indelible charm and a quirky sophistication to some of film and television’s most memorable roles. Since 2005, MacLachlan has channeled his strong interest in the world of wine into a second, equally satisfying professional pursuit. A native of Yaki- ma, Wash., located in the heart of the Columbia Valley wine appellation MacLachlan has produced three highly-rated Columbia Valley wines: Pursued by Bear Cabernet Sauvignon, Baby Bear Syrah and his most recent, Blushing Bear Rosé. What began as an unabashed love for his home state and a desire to stay connected to his family roots has become a true passion and dedication to the craft of winemaking. MacLachlan has be- come an advocate and evangelist for the unique properties and flavor profile of Washington state wines. He is personally involved in every aspect of Pursued by Bear wines. MacLachlan sees a connection between acting and winemaking in terms of the combination and balance of process, patience and creativity. He chose to call his wine Pursued by Bear as an homage to perhaps the most famous of all stage directions, “exit, pursued by bear,” from Act III, scene iii of Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale. It’s a funny and unexpected phrase that’s not only a nod to his theatrical roots but also plays to his sense of humor. “It just seemed to fit what I was trying to do,” he said. MacLachlan is perhaps best known for his performance as FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper in David Lynch’s ground-breaking series Twin Peaks, for which he received two Emmy nominations and a Golden Globe Award.

    1 “Call for help”: Analysis of Agent Cooper’s Wounded Masculinity in Twin Peaks 2.6.2021 Dale Cooper Twin Peaks crime fiction detective fiction masculinity trauma Karla Lončar karla.loncar[a]lzmk.hr Ph.D. candidate Miroslav Krleža Institute of Lexicography This essay explores the shifts in representation of the masculinity of FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper, one of the leading characters of the Twin Peaks fictional universe, created by David Lynch and Mark Frost. The research covers three chapters. The first chapter serves as an analysis of Cooper’s character from the original television series (1990–91) and Lynch’s film prequel Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me (1992), in which he is interpreted as an intuitive detective (Angela Hague), who departs from the conventional depiction of detective characters. The second one investigates Cooper’s “returns” in the third season/Twin Peaks: The Return (2017) and their significance for his character development through the lens of psychoanalytic interpretations of the detective/crime genre and its connections to past trauma (Sally Rowe Munt). The third chapter further explores the struggles of Cooper’s three major self-images in The Return: the Good Dale/DougieCooper, Mr. C and Richard, all of which suggest certain issues in perception of his masculinity, by referring to several psychoanalytic, feminist and masculinity scholars (Isaac D. Balbus, Jack Halberstam, Lee Stepien), official Twin Peaks novels The Autobiography of F.B.I. Special Agent Dale Cooper: My Life, My Tapes (Scott Frost, 1991) and Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier (Mark Frost, 2017) as well as the Ancient myth of Orpheus and Alfred Hitchcock’s film Vertigo (1958).

    Networks of Twin Peaks: the Dale Cooper Effect Harun Šiljak, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland 1 The shape of stories When Kurt Vonnegut speaks of the shape of stories [1], he is in the realm of calculus, continuous functions describing dynamics of the plot, the highs and lows of the protagonist’s emotions, the speed at which the story unravels. In a way, it corresponds to the historical development of calculus as a way to interpret motion as a function of time. The abscissa is the time, and the ordinate axis is something important for the hero–emotional state, for example. Figure 1 provides a detailed illustration from contemporary fantasy fiction. There is another shape of a story we are interested in: one of its people, the world it lives in. That shape does not focus on the actions, but on the structures. It describes the contents of the carrier bag, like in Ursula K. Le Guin’s Carrier Bag Theory of Fiction [3], and they are neatly arranged in graphs, maps, and trees (as the eponymous work by Franco Moretti suggests [4]). The tools from it come from graph theory and algebra–and once put in context of arbitrary large networks, the field of research is usually dubbed network theory [5]. Are there only so many community types, networks of interactions in life and in literature? What can mathematics tell us about it? Are networks of characters in fiction anything like our social networks? A growing body of literature has been dealing with this application of network theory; investigating epic stories from the past, superhero universes from the modern era, etc.

In the finale episode of Twin Peaks Laura Palmer tells Kyle MacLachlan’s Special Agent Dale Cooper that she will see him again in 25 years.

What does it mean.” (Bennett 2014: online) “For those still craving 'A damn fine coffee and a piece of cherry pie' from the Double R Diner, David Lynch has a surprise in store... and it has taken a mere 25 years to come to fruition…The series, which was abruptly cancelled in 1991, made mention of its possible return in an episode, when the spirit of murdered beauty queen Laura Palmer whispered to FBI Agent Dale Cooper that she would see him again in 25 years …The primetime drama was set in 1989... so it looks like Laura might make good on that promise.” (Maxwell 2014: online) The ‘Dispersed Anniversary’ Stage two: Recognition and Verification “This rumour was especially titillating as it would coincide with Laura Palmer’s posthumous sentiments to Agent Cooper and give the first new PEAKS to the generations that have discovered it in the years since its cancellation.” (Hanley 2014: online) “They wouldn’t remake it.

  • Twin Peaks and Columbo 17
    15 TWIN PEA KS AND COLUMBO Imaginations in American Literature By JOHN NEARY COUPLE OF YEAR_S AGO I was hooked on film director David Lynch's television series Twin Peaks. I was fascinated by the show's twisting, twisted story, eccentric characters, and overall A weirdness. But when I mentioned Twin Peaks to a good friend who is a Catholic theologian, he told me with some embarrassment that he found the show off-putting; it was 'too Protestant', he said. When I asked my friend what he meant, he referred me to the theology of David Tracy and the sociological writing of Fr Andrew Greeley. Tracy and Greeley have described two religious imaginations, two ways of using images to suggest a transcendent reality: the 'dialecti- cal' and the 'analogical' imaginations. In his book The Catholic myth, Greeley sums up the two kinds of imagination quite neatly; he claims (borrowing from David Tracy' s ideas) that, within modern Christianity, Protestantism tends to nurture a dialectical imagination and Cathol- icism an analogical or sacramental imagination: The central symbol is God. One's 'picture' of God is in fact a metaphorical narrative of God's relationship with the world and the self as part of the world . [David Tracy] suggested that the Catholic imagination is 'analogical' and the Protestant imagination is 'dialecti- cal'. The Catholic 'classics' assume a God who is present in the world, disclosing Himself in and throughcreation. The world and all its events, objects, and people tend to be somewhat like God. The Protestant classics, on the other hand, assume a God who is radically absent from the world and who discloses Herself only on rare occasions (especially in Jesus Christ and Him crucified).

This article argues that the series itself is also a kind of double, because it takes advantage of the almost unique situation in which a beloved show is continued after a quarter-century absence to superimpose itself on the new versions of Twin Peaks its fans have fantasized in the interim.
