Her remainingpatients call her out on herineffective treatment.\"She doesn't listen very well, she'sjudgy and kind of elitist,\" Fostersaid. \"I think that's fun. A lot ofthe comedy in the film is at theexpense of my character.\"Lilian's treatment is based inFreudian analysis, which suppliesother aspects of humor. Fostersaid the outdated school ofthought also gets a good ribbingin the film.\"In America, we kind of canceledFreud a long time ago,\" Fostersaid. \"We decided he was amisogynist with good cause.\"Foster has spoken French sinceshe began Lycée Français de LosAngeles from age 9. She said shehas been waiting for a French rolein \"a real auteur French movie.\"Lilian is also an American inFrance, which leads to one of thefilm's big mysteries. Lilianrecords her sessions, and one ofPaula's is stolen.\"Her excuse was, 'Listen, I wasworried that I didn't speak Frenchwell enough to be able to reallyunderstand the subtleties of thelanguage and I didn't want to misssomething,'\" Foster said. \"It'ssomething that you're notsupposed to be doing. It'ssupposed to be about the actualinteraction between people,\"Lilian also suffers from acondition that makes her eyestear. Foster said she does not cryon command in dramatic scenes,let alone in random ones, sovisual effects or droplets providedthe tears.\"I never learned that magic trickto cry on command,\" she said.Playing a psychiatrist alsoreflected Foster's approach toacting. Foster said she lovesanalyzing her characters and howthey relate to other characters.\"If you're interested inpsychology, you're interested inbeing an actor and vice versa,\"Foster said. \"Psychology is reallyjust the study of communicationbetween people, relationships, allthe things I love as an actor.\"By Fred TopelJodie Foster stars in the new film “A Private Life”BornAlicia Christian FosterNovember 19, 1962 (age 63)Los Angeles, CaliforniaFoster's career began with an appearancein a Coppertone television advertisementin 1965, when she was three years old.Foster began her career as a child modeland gained recognition as a teenidol through Disney filmsincluding Napoleon andSamantha (1972), Freaky Friday (1976),and Candleshoe (1977).For her role as a 12-year-old prostitute inScorsese's Taxi Driver (1976), she wasnominated for the Academy Award forBest Supporting Actress.

www.hap2it.com January 22, 2026 HAPPENINGS Page 5More Evidence Bald Men Are UselessNew research shows that hair cancapture a chemical record ofhuman exposure across days, weekand even months. Writing in thejournal Chemical Research inToxicology, scientists at theUniversity of Texas analyzedsnippets of hair and found that forat least one chemical — a class ofcommon endocrine-disruptingplasticizer called phthalates foundin household materials andpersonal care products — levelsmatched back to different timeexposures.Most exposure studies rely onurine or blood, which fluctuatedaily and capture only recentexposures. By contrast, hair growsslowly and steadily, incorporatingcompounds into its structure as itforms. Every half-inch representsabout a month of chemical history.Part of the researchers' message isthat exposure to harmfulsubstances doesn't just come fromsmokestacks or car exhaust.Americans spend roughly 90% oftheir time indoors, wherepollutants from cooking, furniturecleaning products and even ourbodies often dominate. Simplehabits like vacuuming morefrequently and avoiding personalcare products that containphthalates can lower exposures.\"Even knowing that before goingto bed, just opening the windowsfor a few minutes and flushing thehouse with some fresh air, (your)exposure can really be muchsmaller,\" said study coauthorPawal Misztal.Body of KnowledgeThe typical human body is roughly60% water. Whole human blood isslightly less than 80% water. Yetblood makes up only 1/13th of thetotal weight of the human body.Most water weight (two-thirds) isintracellular. That is, fluid withincells, of which the average adulthas 30 to 40 trillion.Stories for the Waiting RoomA new study out of Texas A&Msuggests that just 20 minutes ofexercise twice a week may helpslow dementia. Specifically, theyevaluated nearly 10,000 people(median age 78) for signs of mildcognitive impairment, a loss ofmemory or other thinkingprocesses that is noticeable butdoes not affect everyday life. MCIis thought to be one step on thepath to Alzheimer's disease andrelated dementias, though theconnection isn't linear.\"Older adults who maintainedmoderate levels of physicalactivity showed a significantlylower chance of developingdementia over time, while thosewho were less active saw little tono benefit,\" said study coauthorJunhyoung \"Paul\" Kim.\"This highlights the importance ofregular movement — such aswalking — as a simple andeffective strategy to support brainhealth.\"ObservationWhy don't they just get taller girlsfor ballet?Best MedicineA man goes to a clinic.\"Doc, I think I'm a bit hard ofhearing,\" the man declares.\"Can you describe the symptoms?\"asks the physician.\"Sure,\" says the man. \"Marge hasblue hair.

It's actuallyrough around the edges and it'sactually real. It's actually aconversation we need to be havingright now in the world.\"In theaters now, the film is basedon the extraordinary true story ofhow Tony Kiritsis (BillSkarsgard) held mortgage brokerRichard Hall (Montgomery) atgunpoint in a stand-off with policefor 63 hours in 1977 Indianapolis.The hostage situation became amedia circus, with some peoplechampioning Kiritsis as a hero forstanding up for himself against acompany he accused of swindlinghim out of his life savings.Pacino plays Hall's cold-heartedfather, while Cary Elwes plays apolice detective and ColmanDomingo plays a radio discjockey, both of whom try to talkKiritsis off the ledge beforesomeone gets hurt or dies.\"He's an interesting character. Thefact that he remains so surfacelevel stoic the entire time bafflesme in so many different ways,\"Montgomery said of Hall.\"He wrote an amazing book[Kiritsis and Me: Enduring 63Hours at Gunpoint] after he washeld hostage, which actuallyprovides a lot of insight into whatwas going on in his life then andfollowing the events. So, I kind offollowed that heavily to kind ofget into his head-space and createthat character in its new form 50years later.\"Montgomery admitted it waschallenging to play a man whowas physically confined in a tinyNew York apartment with ashotgun wired to the back of hishead, so that if he tried to escapeor if law-enforcement tried to takeKiritsis out, Hall would be killed.\"It's extremely hard and it wasvery taxing, physically andemotionally to have a wire aroundmy neck and stuff. But all of thatstuff actually helped so much. Thefact that we shot this film soquickly was great because thehostage situation takes place overfour days,\" Montgomery said.\"We shot this filmchronologically, which reallyhelps for us to follow the storyfrom the office building to Tony'sapartment to the final negotiationin front of the cameras at the endof the movie,\" the actor said.\"There were so many things thathelped the general energy andmomentum of the film and thenthe physical constraints helpedhugely to fuel all of that kind ofmalaise and angst that Dick wasfeeling.\"Montgomery said he andSkarsgard -- best known for hiswork in the IT franchise -- trustedeach other enough to improvise inthe apartment to heighten thetension.\"Bill's wonderful, one of the bestscene partners I've ever had and agood friend,\" he said.\"I really, really enjoyed workingwith him. His attention to detailand his intensity is all reflected inhis performance, which I think isamazing,\" Montgomery added.\"I'm always learning from mycast-mates and my directors and Idid that at every step of this.\"Leaving this harrowing rolebehind once the cameras stoppedrolling wasn't easy, Montgomerysaid.\"There's no middle ground. I go1,000 percent when I'm working.It's my everything. It's my wholeworld and it was hard to shed thischaracter,\" he explained.\"I balded myself. My eyebrowswere kind of gone,\" Montgomeryadded. \"Even just physically, thedregs of the shoot, in the way Ilooked, bled into me, trying towash off and let go of thischaracter.

Thiscountdown, assembled by watchmojo.com,includes some classics - from Romero'szombies to Kubrick's space odyssey, thesevisionaries shaped cinema as we know it today.#1: “2001: A Space Odyssey” (1968)Unlike anything that came before it, not only were itseffects groundbreaking, they were also very realistic,while many of the technological advances it suggestedwere fairly accurate, dealing with a multitude ofconcepts that have since become familiar, such as AIturning on its creators. 1. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)2. Metropolis (1927)3. Citizen Kane (1941)4. The Wizard of Oz (1939)5. Star Wars: A New Hope (1977)6. Psycho (1960)7. Blade Runner (1982)8. A Clockwork Orange (1971)9. Tron (1982)10.

Alien (1979)19. Enemy of the State (1998)20. Night of the Living Dead (1968)The top 20 films that were way ahead of their time#3: “Citizen Kane” (1941) From a pure filmmaking standpoint, “Citizen Kane”practically wrote the book, inventing and improvingupon many techniques that are now industry standards– deep focus, low shooting angles, and overlappingdialogue. Story wise, Kane used a non-linear, flashbackbased approach, and used multiple – and oftenunreliable narrators – to deliver the story.#8: “A Clockwork Orange” (1971)Sets a new standard for how much violence could beshown in films, to the point where it sparked protests.The movie also influenced film with its stylisticchoices, such as contrasting violence with unfittingmusic - no one could listen at “Singin’ in the Rain” the same after this.#14: “Pulp Fiction” (1994)Mixing together various crime movie cliches whilefeaturing an incredible deconstruction of a typical plot,Tarantino made a film that still feels fresh today,redefining the nature of cinematic dialogue, pop culturecommentary, and awesome needle drops. 10on10.qxp_My Turn 1-2H 1/20/26 3:37 PM Page 1

www.hap2it.com January 22, 2026 HAPPENINGS Page 15Ali, as in Mohammed Ali was abig fan of the show, so much sothat he dropped in on the first dayof filming of their syndicatedsequel series, What’s HappeningNow!!Birthday Present was the title ofthe second episode in the firstseason with Raj trying to getmoney for mama’s birthdaypresent by participating in a dicegame that goes horribly wrong. Cooley High, the 1975 film, wasthe initial inspiration for the pilotepisode however, it was decidedthat it needed to be reshot not as adrama but as a sitcom. Danielle Louise Spencer, as Dee,Raj’s younger sister would repriseher role in What’s HappeningNow!! who after her acting career,went on to become a veterinarian. Ernest Lee Thomas (RogerEverett “Raj” Thomas) was aBroadway performer before goingto Hollywood. Thomas was theonly cast member to be retainedfrom the original pilot episode. Fred Alan Berry’s character wascalled Rerun because hecontinuously repeated his classesin summer school. As a member ofthe LA dance troupe, The Lockers,Berry appeared on the thirdepisode of Saturday Night Live. Golden West Videotape DivisionStudios, was where the showmoved to after filming the initialepisodes at the ABC TelevisionStudios. Golden West was muchlarger but not as nice as ABC’sdressing rooms which resulted inconflict between talent and theproducers. Haywood Nelson began hisacting career at age six, doing oncamera and voiceover for nationalcommericals.Irene Cara made a guestappearance in one episode asRerun’s would-be immigrantbride. J was the middle initial of FreddyStubbs, aka Rerun. Speaking ofmiddle names, Fred Berry, whoplayed Rerun, would later have hismiddle name changed from Allento Rerun.Kenosha native and actor CharlesSiebert appeared in an 1977episode as Mr. Ramsey. Siebertwas best known as Dr. StanleyRiverside in the hit series “TrapperJohn M.D.”Locale for the show was LosAngeles. specifically the Wattsneighborhood. Mackenzie Phillips and ValerieBertinelli and the rest of the OneDay at a Time crew shared an onset studio teacher with Danielleand Ernest. Nielsen ratings for the oncepopular show suffered when it wasmoved to Saturday night. Insyndication, the show sometimesperformed in select markets betterthan when it originally aired. One is the loneliest number whenHaywood Thomas went it alonefor the episode, “If I’m Elected.”In a dispute with producers, bothFred Berry and Ernest Thomasrefused to perform leavingHaywood to carry the show.Piracy or some would saybootlegging was the theme in thetwo-part episode entitled Doobieor Not Doobie that had the TheDoobie Brothers performing attheir high school and on thereceiving end of a musicbootlegging scheme. Quiñones, Adolfo: thedancer/actor best known forplaying Ozone in the breakdancing films Breakin’ andBreakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo, wascredited as a dancer on the show in1976 before his Breakin’ fame.Roots, the 1977 highly acclaimedtelevision mini-series featured anextensive cast including ErnestThomas who was cast as Kailuba.Thomas was one of the final twoactors considered for the role ofKunta Kinte that eventually wentto LaVar Burton. Shirley Hemphill portrayedShirley Wilson, the wisecrackingwaitress at the neighborhood sodashop.Theme song for the show waswritten by Henry Mancini whoalso wrote the music for a numberof films including Breakfast atTiffany, Days of Wine and Roses,and the Pink Panther films. University of Southern Californiawas the back drop for both Raj andRerun in the third season when thetwo attended college aftergraduating from high school. Thestoryline had taking Rerun sevenyears to graduate due to a learningdisability. Viewers or fans of the showincluded Sydney Poitier, SmokeyRobinson, Tori Spelling, Dr. MayaAngelou and President JimmyCarter. Wicked witch of the West in theBroadway production of The Wizwas Mabel King prior to joiningWhat’s Happening!!Xtras or is it spelled extra?Regardless, a number of actorsincluding Yorkin as in Bud Yorkin, was thelongtime partner of Norman Lear.What’s Happening!! was hissecond series on his own after hisspit from Lear. Zero, we have nothing for thisletter of the alphabet! Whatʼs Happening!!

Page 26 HAPPENINGS January 22, 2026 www.hap2it.comyour bridal guideHow to plan a winter weddingWeddings take place throughoutthe year, but some months havetraditionally proven more populartimes of year for happy couples totie the knot.Summer was long known as themost popular season for weddings,but that trend has shifted in recentyears. According to the 2020WeddingWire Newlywed Report,36 percent of couples get marriedin the fall, making autumn themost popular time to say \"I do.\"Though October and Septemberare the two most popular monthsto marry, budget-conscious couples may want to consider gettingmarried in winter. December,January and February are the leastpopular wedding months, but theexperts at WeddingWire note thatgetting married during the slowseason has its benefits. Vendors,including wedding planners andvenues, may offer their servicesand facilities at discounted pricesin winter to account for the slowseason. And guests might bethankful to have a fun event tolook forward to during a time ofyear when social schedules tend tobe less busy.Many wedding components willstay the same regardless of whencouples walk down the aisle.However, couples may need totake a few things into consideration as they begin planning winterweddings.· Avoid holiday weekends. Justbecause social schedules are notalways so busy in winter that doesn't mean couples can pick any winter weekend to tie the knot. Theholiday season, which begins onThanksgiving weekend in lateNovember and lasts until NewYear's Day, is a hectic time of yearfor many people. Avoid holidayweekends like Thanksgiving andthe weekends before or afterChristmas and New Year'sEve/New Year's Day. These weekends already are busy travel times,so couples might not be able to getguest-friendly rates on hotelrooms, and some guests mayalready have plans to visit family.In addition to the December holidays, avoid the first weekend inFebruary. That's Super Bowlweekend, and many people may bereluctant to travel on the day of thebig game.· Research local weather. It'simpossible to predict the weather,but savvy couples can researchlocal weather in the town or citywhere they're getting married todetermine when is the most travelfriendly month to host their weddings. Some regions get heavysnowfall in January, while othersmay be more susceptible to latewinter snowstorms. Couples witha lot of out-of-town guests shouldchoose a winter weekend wheresnowfall is unlikely so guests don'thave to endure travel delays ontheir way to and from the wedding.· Purchase wedding insurance.Wedding insurance is a wiseinvestment for every couple, but itcan be especially valuable for couples tying the knot in winter. Eachpolicy is different, but weddinginsurance policies should protectcouples' investments if stormsforce local officials to declare astate of emergency that prohibitstravel. Make sure the policy coversboth cancellations and postponements.Winter weddings can help couplessave money. Planning such affairsmay require paying attention todetails that would not garner muchconsideration during other times ofyear. Choosing your wedding day menuFrench queen Marie Antoinette iscredited with a phrase that looselytranslates to \"Let them eat cake.\"Guests at a wedding certainly willhave their chance to enjoy cake,but it's likely that wedding planners will need to offer a bit moresustenance to guests than this confectionary creation to keep themhappy.Many things stand out as memorable on a wedding day: the dress,the music, the adorable childrenwho trip up or do some sort ofzany antics down the aisle, and thefood. Guests often look forward toa wedding to wish a couple well intheir new lives together, but alsoto enjoy a great meal. Couplesshould give careful considerationto their wedding reception menuso everyone ends the night withgreat memories and full bellies.Decide on the type of serviceBuffet, plated dinner, serverpassed foods, or food stations arethe options at couples' disposalwhen planning reception dinners.The type of service often dictatesthe formality of the event. Forexample, a cocktail party whereguests mingle and sample smallbites throughout the night may bea more casual affair, while a platedmulti-course meal is much moreformal. Couples can decide whichtype of service fits their budgetsand ideas of for the reception.Expand your optionsLargely gone are the days whenguests select dishes on theR.S.V.P. months in advance andthen are locked into their choices.Now guests have more optionsand flexibility, particularlybecause couples and catering venues offer greater variety. A buffetstyle meal gives guests chances tosample various foods in one sitting. However, even if coupleschoose a plated meal, they canselect packages that offer gueststhe greatest number of options. Besure to include a vegetarian orvegan option, a fish option, and astandard beef or chicken option toappeal to most.Confirm food allergies or sensitivitiesIt's likely someone on the guestlist will have a food allergy or sensitivity. Making sure there is nocross-contamination is a seriousconsideration for such guests. Theperson or persons should be consulted about what the person canand cannot eat, and then thoserequirements should be conveyedto the catering manager.Certain people with food allergiesare so leery about eating out thatthey may prefer to bring their ownfood to ensure it is safe. In thisinstance, ensure that the kitchenstaff will be able to safely heat upor plate the food.Food will likely be on the mindsof wedding guests. Couples canensure that their guests are satiatedby making food a priority at theirevents.Bridal Winter.qxp_HAPPENINGS FULL AD TEMPLATE 1/20/26 3:18 PM Page 22
www.hap2it.com January 22, 2026 HAPPENINGS Page 27042425your bridal guideMusic is an important part ofwedding celebrationsFew things set the mood of a wedding more effectively than music.Beautiful songs often are incorporated into wedding ceremonies,and romantic or upbeat songsintermingle to create a festive mixat receptions.Playlists curated specifically forweddings can be found online tohelp couples narrow down theiroptions. According to WeddingForward, a wedding planningguide, wedding planning expertsand modern couples agree thatwedding playlists should be have a60/40 split of classics and newwedding songs.Music is a personal choice, butcouples may benefit by considering who will be in attendance attheir weddings. In so doing, couples can ensure the music playedat their weddings reaches as manypeople as possible there:· Wedding processional song:The wedding processional is themoment the wedding party walksdown the aisle. Music may be atraditional hymn, classical musicor a favorite contemporary song.· Bridal processional song: Inmany traditional wedding ceremonies, the bride walks down theaisle separately, with her father orboth parents. She customarily willhave a different song from the restof the wedding party. While\"Bridal Chorus/Wedding March\"is a traditional choice, some bridesmay prefer a different tune.· Wedding recessional song:Again, depending on the ceremony location and choices, the recessional may be a classical piece or ahymn. Some couples choose anupbeat song for their first officialpromenade as a married couple.· Wedding party entrance song:Couples can ask their music vendor to put together the majority ofthe songs for their reception, butthey may want to choose their ownwedding party entrance. This songtypically is a fast-paced, upbeatsong that gets the crowd pumpingand ready for a fun night. Think\"Dynamite\" by Taio Cruz or \"Can'tStop the Feeling!\" by JustinTimberlake.· First dance: The first dance songis another personal choice for thecouple. Slow songs traditionallyare chosen, but couples who wantsomething a little different haveincreasingly selected faster songsand paired them with rehearsedchoreography. \"Thinking OutLoud\" by Ed Sheeran has becomea popular first dance song.· Other songs: Couples also willselect songs to complement danceswith their parents, cake cutting,garter toss, and any other specialtraditions or moments. They alsocan make requests to includesongs of different eras to appeal toguests of all ages.Music is an important componentof wedding celebrations anddeserves some extra considerationto ensure everyone has a greattime while cutting a rug.Bridal Winter.qxp_HAPPENINGS FULL AD TEMPLATE 1/20/26 3:18 PM Page 23
Page 28 HAPPENINGS January 22, 2026 www.hap2it.comyour bridal guidePointers for post-wedding brunchA post-wedding brunch is a niceway to wrap up a wedding weekendand gives a newly married couple achance to spend more time withclose friends and family, particularlyif the couple isn't immediately leaving for the honeymoon. A brunch isthe perfect way to send guests ontheir way with a few extra hugs andfull bellies.A brunch is not a necessity by anymeans, but it is a nice gesture and agood way to wrap up a weddingweekend. Couples who plan onhosting brunches can consider thesetips.· Delegate: The happy couplealready has a lot of details on theirplate to ensure the wedding occurswith minimal hiccups. A parent ormember of the bridal party maywant to take on the task of planningthe brunch to alleviate stress on thenewly betrothed.· Funding: There are no hard rulesabout who will pay for the brunch,but typically it is the person whohosts it. Couples may want to setaside funds in their budgets for thebrunch, or parents of the couple maywant to contribute.· Timing: Seeing as it likely was alate evening prior, the brunch shouldoccur as late as possible in the morning, with 11 a.m. or noon a goodstart time so everyone has a chanceto sleep in and recuperate.· Ease: The brunch planner shouldmake it easy on himself or herself byfinding a venue that is close by.Sometimes that venue may be alodging location if the couplearranged for overnight accommodations. For example, if overnightguests stayed at a hotel near thereception site, that hotel may have asmall conference or party roomwhere brunch can be held. Thebrunch planner can work with thehotel staff to cater the brunch; otherwise, find a nearby restaurant thatspecializes in breakfast or brunchfoods that is convenient to most.· Invites: For those with big budgets,anyone can be invited to the wedding brunch, but it may be moremanageable if it is restricted to onlyclose friends and family, or onlythose who opted for the overnightwedding accommodations.· Gifts: There is no need to offeranother favor at the weddingbrunch. However, if any favors fromthe wedding were left behind, theycan be displayed at the brunch incase any guests forgot to take theirs.· Duration: A 2- to 21/2-hour brunchis sufficient.· Food: Brunch implies a mix ofbreakfast and lunch treats, whichcan include bagels, muffins,omelets, waffles, cold cuts, andquiches. While cocktails likemimosas or bellinis may be offered,they're not necessary after a night ofindulgence. In fact, coffee and teamay be more coveted.A post-wedding brunch is the perfect way to wrap up a successfulwedding celebration.Make memories with mother-son dancesThere is nothing quite like the love amother has for her children. When itcomes time for a son to get married,Mom has already seen him throughplenty of milestone moments likebirthdays, proms, graduations, andother achievements that showcased histransition from boy to man.A wedding is a momentous occasionin a family's life. During a wedding,couples opt to show their love andgratitude to their parents or guardiansin many ways, including through traditional dances. The mother-son dancegives the groom an opportunity tohonor the special woman in his lifewho saw him through thick and thin.Much like the father-daughter dance,the mother-son dance traditionally takes place during the receptionafter the newlyweds take their own first turn around the dance floor.However, this spotlight dance also can occur at other times during thefestivities.Typically the groom chooses a song with the right sentiments, but thedecision also can be a joint effort. There are no right or wrong answerswhen it comes to song selection. However, for those who need someinspiration, certain songs are tried-and-true options.How Sweet It Is, James TaylorYou Raise Me Up, Josh GrobanTime After Time, Cyndi LauperLetter to My Mother, E.

www.hap2it.com January 22, 2026 HAPPENINGS Page 31A big statue of a tiger sits in frontof the train station of Norway’scapital, Oslo. A local onceexplained that Oslo is nicknamed“Tiger City” because, in the 19thcentury, when country boys wouldvisit this wild and crazy \"NewYork City of Norway,\" it would\"make a mark on their soul.\"I find Oslo more of a kitten than atiger. Its mix of grand Neoclassicalfacades, boxy ’60s-stylemodernism, pastoral parks, andhomogenous culture have alwaysfelt a bit tame for my taste. But digdeeper, and you’ll find moretexture here – from wild newbuildings on its people-friendlyharborfront to troubled artists.The city's grand boulevard, KarlJohans gate, cuts from the trainstation through the center of townto the Royal Palace. It’s lined withrestaurants, parks, and landmarks– including Oslo Cathedral,Parliament, and Stortorvet Square,with its lively flower and producemarket.A boulevard highlight is thevenerable Grand Café, once themeeting place of Oslo’sintellectual and creative elite. Atthe back of the café, a mural showsNorway’s literary and artisticclientele enjoying this finehangout, from playwright HenrikIbsen (who came in every day at13:00) to Edvard Munch,Norway's most famous andinfluential painter.Munch’s work is featured onOslo’s waterfront, in the newMunch museum – the biggest artmuseum in Europe dedicated to asingle artist. Munch helped topioneer a new style,Expressionism, using lurid colorsand bold lines to \"express\" innerturmoil and the angst of themodern world. His most iconicpainting is The Scream, which hedescribed as“ the work of amadman.\"The Munch building is oneexample of Oslo’s efforts to makeits fjord more people-friendly. Inthe past, you would have dodgedseveral lanes of traffic to get here –but now, most traffic has beendiverted through tunnels. As inmany European cities, residentsare reclaiming their waterfront.Next door to Munch is the marbleOpera House, which seems to riselike an iceberg from the sea. Thisis the only opera house in theworld that doubles as a publicplaza, with a roof designed to be atheater itself – where locals gatherto enjoy the sun, fjord views, andconcerts. Opened in 2008, thiscreative cultural venue is a hugehit. I once joined 8,000 others onthe rooftop to watch a fast-risingpop band perform on…the water.(Their stage was a raft anchoredjust offshore.)Further west along the harborstands Oslo's striking City Hall,famous for hosting the NobelPeace Prize ceremony. Completedin 1950 to celebrate the city's900th birthday, the building wasan avant-garde thrill in its day.Entering here, I'm reminded that inthis most highly taxed corner ofEurope, city halls (rather thanchurches) are the dominantbuildings. While the state religionis Lutheran, people rarely go tochurch. Instead, they seem toalmost worship goodgovernment... In fact, the mainhall actually feels like a temple.Walking – or cycling – alongOslo’s harbor is a great way toenjoy the city’s fjord-side settingand re-envisioned harborfront. Aseries of info kiosks creates aninspiring DIY tour route,celebrating how Oslo turned anindustrial wasteland into athriving, green, and welcomingresidential district.The fjord itself is another topattraction. There are plenty ofexpensive private cruise options,but the best deal is just to hop on aferry. These public boats do aroughly hour-long loop of the Oslofjord, and you can decide whetheryou want to stay on for the wholething (this works great with apicnic lunch), or hop off to exploreany of Oslo’s five islands. Ifyou’re short on time, Hovedøya,featuring the ruins of a 12thcentury Cistercian Abbey, is themost worthwhile. Rides are just $4(free with the Oslo City Pass), anddepart from in front of City Hall.Once you’ve docked back in Osloproper, head to Frogner Park – ashort tram ride away. This not onlyoffers a great peek at locals at play,but also features a fine sculpturegarden showcasing a lifetime ofwork by Norway's greatestsculptor, Gustav Vigeland.From 1924 to 1943, Vigelandcreated a world of bronze andgranite statues – around 600 nudefigures in all. The centerpiece is ateeming monolith of life, with 121figures carved out of a single blockof stone rocketing skyward.Vigeland left his beloved city apark filled with stoney andthought-provoking insights intothe bittersweet cycle of life.Norwegians don’t get muchsummer, so they practically liveoutdoors when the weather finallyturns nice. And, from its newpeople-friendly waterfront tospacious Frogner Park, Oslo hasmade it easy for locals andtravelers alike to enjoy a delightfulurban mix of the city’s uniquestory and great outdoor spaces.By Rick StevesRising like an iceberg from the sea, Oslo’s Opera House is one ofmany ways the city has revitalized its waterfront.
