Lecture to focus on Victorian decor

WARREN

Richard Moore, owner and appraiser of Bonfoey Gallery in Cleveland, will give a free lecture titled “What Victorians Hung on Their Walls” Wednesday morning in the Thomas Room of the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library. Paintings, prints, tapestries, embroideries and mourning pictures will be discussed.

The event will begin at 9:30 a.m. with coffee and pastries. The presentation will start at 10 a.m. and will be followed by an “Antiques Road Show”-style segment until noon. Audience members are invited to bring one or two pieces, not necessarily Victorian, from their own collections, to learn the origin, date and approximate value of each piece.

Hank Williams Jr., ESPN part ways

Hank Williams Jr. will no longer sing the words “Are you ready for some football?” on Monday nights on ESPN. Each side claimed Thursday it had decided to part ways after Williams’ tune opened “Monday Night Football” for more than two decades. The network had pulled the intro for this week’s game after the country singer used an analogy to Adolf Hitler in discussing President Barack Obama on Fox News on Monday morning. Williams issued a statement Monday night insisting his remarks were misunderstood, then apologized Tuesday. But in a statement to The Associated Press, Williams says: “I have made MY decision. ... Me, My Song, and All My Rowdy Friends are OUT OF HERE.”
