It was only the latest example of the luxury fashion industry finding inspiration in the workaday stuff of everyday life, but it crystallized the coy cross-pollination between luxury goods and basic essentials, and made clear that influence trickles up as well as down.

But once you notice it, the complexion of the painting changes — from workaday to crepuscular — and in so doing, imbues an otherwise nonsensical situation with a looming sense of mortality, a visual correlative to the label "tragicomedy" that Samuel Beckett appended to his Waiting for Godot (1953).

Fake email and social media have become standard features in sports game career modes, the former being used to simulate the workaday aspects of your fantasy and the latter being used to simulate a fraction of the attention and pestering that goes with being a famous athlete.

While the action in Tribal Force (which is tentatively set to relaunch soon, after a long hiatus) will appeal to workaday comic book consumers, the themes of the series focus on social issues Proudstar saw on his reservation, like sexual abuse and fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS).

In The Death and Life of Great American Cities (1961) and subsequent books, Jacobs defines the "organized complexity" and "intricate order" of cities, tracking pedestrian tendencies, itinerant crowds, workaday routines, and shopping and socializing habits throughout the daytime and nighttime hours in robust districts and neighborhoods.

The workaday transaction banking business, which refers to services that deal with companies' operational needs such as trade financing, cash management and facilitating payments, has been a source of stable returns without consuming much capital for banks in Asia, the largest trading region in the world.

Gillibrand's Mandarin can be written off as the résumé-building accomplishment of a striver, while Norwegian, which has no practical value for an American president, is taken as a sign of intellectual curiosity and authenticity — the sort of whimsical surplus achievement that often upstages workaday accomplishments.

Growing up, I'd felt a frisson of pride when my lawyer father set off in his sober black or beige suit for a rare morning in court, or appeared at my track meet in his workaday blazer and tie, leagues more dapper than all the other dads.

This could well be for practical reasons: His 1974 "Yellow and Green Ray Dress and Headdress" from the "Seven Ray" series, a Paul Poiret–like garment that resembles a glittering peapod, seems more likely to influence moviemakers and stylists than merchandisers looking for the next workaday, wearable look.

In Los Angeles, the continuing revival of the downtown Grand Central Market is generally considered a success, but the oyster bars and almond-milk-latte stalls installed there in recent years make clear that the market has become a food hall rather than the workaday grocery it once was.

"What a luxury a cat is, the moments of shocking and startling pleasure in a day, the feel of the beast, the soft sleekness under your palm, the warmth when you wake on a cold night, the grace and charm even in a quite ordinary workaday puss," Lessing once said.

It returns Bong to the workaday Korean settings of his first two features, the grotesque comedy "Barking Dogs Never Bite" and the detective drama "Memories of Murder," and also of "Mother," his masterpiece (released here in 2010) about a woman whose mentally challenged adult son is accused of killing a schoolgirl.

Yes, there are concept cars scattered across the halls — little glimpses of the distant future — but in between those concepts are hundreds of workaday Camrys and Jettas and Malibus, each with small crowds of daily commuters hopping in and out, touching the dials, playing with the shift knobs, forming opinions.

As upscale restaurants and bars replace the workaday businesses that used to make up the heart of Brooklyn neighborhoods — auto-body shops, steam-table joints, bars that don't serve craft cocktails — there has been a concordant, or perhaps corrective, rise in what I've come to think of as bodega fetishism.

"The sky," Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote in his Journals, "is the daily bread of the eyes," thus conflating the Lord's Prayer and Earth, spirit and nature, and directing attention from immediate surroundings and workaday concerns to the ever-changing splendor always above one: clouds, stars, colors both subtle and vivid, the vast cosmos.

In the words of Jeffrey Fisher, the lawyer who argued Mr Esquivel-Quintana's case, "this decision shows that even when confronted with more workaday immigration matters than the travel ban, the Supreme Court will carefully scrutinise governmental positions for their legality and won't just roll over when faced with assertions of executive prerogative".

"Sisyphus" (2007) is a throwback to Renaissance and Neoclassical paintings by the likes of Pieter Bruegel the Elder and Nicolas Poussin, who would diminish the significance of their ostensible subject so that it becomes just one component of a much larger context — the workaday world in the former's "Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" (c.

That led to the need for the Justice Department to file a brief in opposition, which has been referred to as the Bork brief, because Richardson, rather than leaving that to the Civil Division or the workaday portion of the Justice Department, turned to the solicitor general [Robert Bork] to take the lead on the briefs.

And yet for all its success in drawing and nurturing firms on the technological frontier, Phoenix cannot escape the uncomfortable pattern taking shape across the American economy: Despite all its shiny new high-tech businesses, the vast majority of new jobs are in workaday service industries, like health care, hospitality, retail and building services, where pay is mediocre.

For a recent Waterworks event, "Symphonic Body/Water," renowned choreographer Ann Carlson observed the banal movements of various kinds of workers in the Gallatin Valley — including agricultural producers, politicians, anglers, environmentalists, business leaders, and scientists — who then performed movements based their typical workaday gestures in a near-silent "symphony," as a set of homing doves swooped dramatically around them.

We don't see much of Jack Stone in "The Beach," but the sandals on his feet, along with the careless half-growth on his face, tell a story about a lawyer who's comfortable in the margins — perhaps a grizzled idealist, but for now the sort of workaday guy who trolls the lockup for clients in the middle of the night.

A wordless tour of the titular west German city of less than 200,000, it is a symphony of a small city, flickering through signs of looming industrialization to alight on moments of workaday beauty: a young girl dancing with fantastic abandon in a street; building interiors peopled with card players and folks drinking beer; smokestacks loitering in the background of cityscape views.

Advertising THE settings for the vignettes are workaday and unassuming: a living room where a man surrounded by file boxes and paperwork nods off on the sofa, a compact bedroom where two brothers' very different personalities are on display, an apartment where a father tiptoes from a crib in the single bedroom to a loft bed in the living room.

At the center of season two is a battle for the future of the orchestra, one that takes place among the sorta rich who head up the board (represented by Bernadette Peters's Gloria), the very rich who'd love to take it over, and the workaday folks who are just hoping to put their kids through college by playing in it.

During six days of wandering under miraculously cloudless skies this past May, I saw a Paris that was at turns familiar — the workaday brasseries and tabacs, the bakeries with their yeasty aromas and morning chitchat, the busy traffic circles — and eye-poppingly new to me: a vast and messy urban agglomeration that's home to the great majority of metropolitan Paris's 10 million residents.

Tensions have built up over the long years of Merkelian Machtpolitik and are emerging into the open, particularly in light of a mediocre vote-share at the election, yet another workaday coalition deal, the concession of the powerful finance ministry to the SPD, the allocation of the CDU's few big cabinet jobs to inoffensively loyal Merkelites and the lack of hints at a succession plan at the top.

What was clearer were the waves of worry that rushed across the United States as sketchy details emerged of a bloody melee Sunday morning on a workaday stretch of highway in Louisiana's capital — a city that had already been rocked by the police shooting on July 245 of a black man, a purported murder plot against the police that was apparently foiled and many racially charged nights of protest and rage.

WWE does not like people talking to the media about the seedier side of their operation, and that goes double for issues like pay and hours; at least the pranks and road stories maintain the illusion of a traveling circus act, whereas the details of John Cena's 401k reduce WWE's manic trip through the looking glass as something that exists within the context of our own workaday world.

But not even your mechanical grotesqueries will distract us from those orders, the ones that tell you who will win and who will lose, who will be rewarded in the New Order and who will be left sideways, embarrassed and broken, the subject of workaday blogpost content about "Shots that look like they went down, but actually didn't," and who will be left victorious and exalted in the shadow of their teammates defeat. But...why?

Basically, the Whizzinator exists so that someone—perhaps someone with a serious addiction problem; perhaps someone who wants to get high in his or her own home, harming nothing and nobody; perhaps a professional athlete who would rather medicate their chronic, workaday pain with weed instead of team doctor-prescribed opioids—can get a minimum-wage job at the Dollar Store or hold on to an NFL roster spot, the better to participate in American society.

If there were labs in which political strategists could concoct a politician with a policy profile and personal background perfectly matched with the chemistry of their state, then Democrats in a state like Louisiana — which is socially conservative, yet populist in a workaday way (dating back to the "Every Man a King" slogan of Huey Long) — would probably craft a candidate who looks, sounds and talks just like John Bel Edwards: A white, Catholic, West Point graduate who comes from a law-enforcement family, is married to a schoolteacher and is deeply skeptical of both abortion and gun control.

Dogging, land art, Richard Dawson, and The Wicker Man; the ghosts of M25 orbital raves, exploding grain chimneys, and mad cows burning in a pile; Kill List, boy racers, the view from a George Shaw painting, and the stories of MR James; Derek Jarman's cottage in the shadow of Dungeness nuclear power station, abattoirs, Julian Cope, and thousands of pylons humming in the night like rows of metal angels, routing electricity through the darker parts of the grid to the cities where it is used to light neon bulbs, charge phones for workaday drug deals, fuel Funktion-One rigs.
