Chu's two "Wicked" movies are based on Stephen Schwartz and Winnie Holzman's long-running Broadway musical from 2003, which in turn loosely adapts author Gregory Maguire's bleak 1995 novel,

Their trunks were as tall and straight as ship masts. Who knows how old they were, but I'm guessing they were planted when the house was built in the 1920s. By the time I was a boy, their tops towered high above the roof. We played endlessly beneath the cover of these pines, twirling madly on a single rope swing attached to one especially formidable branch.

"The tradition actually started with the Italian liqueur Sambuca, where three beans were used as a toast to good fortune - and it's carried over perfectly to the espresso martini," Chelsea Walrath, general manager of Char & Stave in Pennsylvania, told HuffPost via email.

In the extant myths of the Norse people and in the archaeological record alike, Mjölnir seems to have had several meanings. From its creation by dwarves to Bronze Age rock carvings, through the Christian conversion of Scandinavia to Thor's dressing as a bride after its theft by a giant, and into the mythic aftermath of Ragnarök, Mjölnir's symbolism reverberated through time.

Artworks inspired by chess boards, landscapes, and nature by Sydney-based artist Sasha Krautman. Chess is a game filled with contrast, order, mystery, luck, and fate. For Krautman, there's a lot of symbolism to be found in one game, even in one simple black and white pattern. Her collection consists of 12 chess board-style art pieces, each bringing together 2 images that simultaneously oppose and fulfill the other.

Open Window in its simplicity is a metaphor for looking inside. An informal invitation to walk up closer and peek in.
