Lightning Strikes Art!
Alert! Alert! Lightning has struck in the world of art and science!
The question: Does art enhance science and math…and vice versa?
The answer: Yes! There are correlations between a Rembrandt portrait and a mathematical model…between Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night and a gamma-ray telescope.
Art enhances our understanding of science, particularly the science of weather. We respond in new ways to Earth's atmosphere and climate through the window of art.
Proof of this was shouted from the roof-tops, or rather from a towering glass atrium, as a cyclone of artworks from around the globe converged upon a mega art exhibition…the first National Weather Center Biennale in Norman, Oklahoma!
The NWC Biennale was the brain child of three very accomplished whirlwinds in the professional art world and one top-notch scientist.
Alan Atkinson, Ph.D., Curator, The National Weather Center Biennale
Ghislain d'Humieres, Director, Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art
Erinn Gavaghan, Executive Director, Norman Arts Council
Dr. Berrien Moore III, Director, National Weather Center
The challenge to artists was to create a work expressing the dynamic image of weather and its impact on the human experience.
The challenge was met!

Art is Everywhere, It's Everywhere!
Yes! We can be surrounded by great design…as we work, travel, practice our religion, and just live.
This astonishing 54-story tower and it's smaller companion building lean and loom like science-fiction creatures poised to stomp all over the surrounding Beijing business district.
Lots of glass and lots of see-through levels…some people in these spaces will be in constant eye contact but will rarely meet!
Galactic Suite is the first-ever hotel designed for outer space.
Space travelers (I mean guests) are launched aboard a rocket ship. They pass the sound barrier and dock in the spaceship (a.k.a. resort), which is orbiting 300 miles above the Earth.
After settling into their own private module (well, not exactly settling, as Velcro suits will be provided allowing guests to attach themselves to the walls for dining and viewing), guests will orbit the Earth 15 times in 3 days.
Fifteen sunrises and sunsets…what a view!
The cost per person for a three-day-stay at Galactic Suite is $4.4 million. The hotel already has 38 bookings.
La Sagrada Família is Antoni Gaudí's unfinished masterpiece. Construction on this church began in 1882 and continues to progress.
It is impossible to know how much the church has cost so far and will cost to finish…and no one has ever known how long it will take.
"My client," said Gaudí, meaning God, "is not in a hurry."
Antoni Gaudí, Spain's most famous architect and National Treasure, was fatally hit by a tram in 1926. Private donations have enabled construction of the Sagrada Família to carry on to this day.
Artistic dignity for our people who actually have to sleep in cardboard on the street.

The Most Famous Supper in History
Leonardo da Vinci captured the moment in which Jesus makes the staggering announcement that he will be betrayed by one of His disciples. This is the last supper they will share.
He is indeed betrayed by Judas Iscariot that same night.
He is crucified by Pontius Pilate.
He rises from the dead three days later.
And the world is changed forever.
Artists have expressed their own versions of The Last Supper for over 500 years.
Their interpretations are profound, enlightened, mysterious, and humorous.
You won't believe the tumultuous life of The Last Supper!

The Art That Hitler Hated
"Anybody who sees and paints a sky green and pastures blue ought to be sterilized." Adolph Hitler
"Any art that does not glorify war is forbidden." Nazi propaganda
"Garish colors and contorted poses of the female body are evidence of a depraved society." Nazi propaganda
German art changed spectacularly after 1920. No longer did artists paint the classical Greek model.
The horrors of World War I, the terrible economic depression, prostitution, the chasm between the rich and the poor…all were bitterly protested in art.
German artists used bright garish colors, awkward poses and harsh brush strokes to shock the viewer with Germany's tragic plight.
German Expressionism was born!
As a young man Adolph Hitler was refused admittance to art school in Vienna, Austria, on the basis of his lack of artistic ability. He never recovered from the rejection.
Hitler denounced German Expressionist artists and their extremely colorful paintings as "degenerate." They were evidence of a pollution in the Aryan strain. The artists who produced them were fired from their teaching positions, their works were removed from museum walls, and they were forbidden to paint again.
Some of these "degenerate" artists escaped to other countries, many of their works were hidden for years or secretly smuggled to America, and many, many works were burned.
Today German Expressionism is considered a momentous time in German art history, the paintings are back on museum walls and "degenerate" art is celebrated over the world.

3 Famous Outsider Artists
Outsider Art:
Naive…visionary…never been in an art school or gallery…disturbing images…
First impression of Clementine Hunter's paintings: charming, quaint, life on the plantation.
But, look deeper into these child-like paintings of picking cotton, picking pecans, washing clothes, baptisms and funerals.
Even though she was born in 1886, twenty years after the Civil War, segregation and oppression of the blacks was still rampant. These paintings are gentle images of this oppression.
What a story! Clementine spent much of her life working on a plantation in Louisiana and only attended school for ten days, never learning to read or write. While she was working as a house servant, an artist visiting the plantation left some discarded brushes and tubes of paint. She became intrigued and used the brushes to "mark a picture, or a window shade." Clementine Hunter's career as an artist began.
Often referred to as the black Grandma Moses, Northwestern State University of Louisiana granted her an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree when she was 100 years old.
Henry Darger's story is heartbreaking but he left the world a treasure trove of art.
Tragedy found Henry Darger early and often. When he was 4 yrs old, his mother died. Unable to care for him, Darger's father placed him in an orphanage. Labeled a troublemaker, the young Darger was moved from institution to institution. At 16, Darger ran away and for the next 64 years he lived alone in a rented room and worked as a janitor in Chicago.
Darger died at 81. His landlords cleaned out his room and made a startling discovery: alone in his room, Darger had created hundreds of beautiful, large paintings illustrating an epic fairytale (15,000 pages) he had written over 60 years.
A brilliant artist, hidden from the world in the guise of a lonely janitor, Henry Darger has become internationally known and is represented in major museums throughout the world.
Sister Gertrude Morgan (1900–1980) was a poet, a preacher, an artist, and a singer who loved Jesus. She called Jesus her husband, her doctor, and her airplane (yes, airplane), and claimed to have met with him in visions throughout her mid and later life.
Born on a farm in Alabama, in 1900, Sister Gertrude left school after third grade so that she could help her family with the farm work.
Preaching the gospel tirelessly in the streets of New Orleans, Sister Gertrude founded an orphanage and ministered to the sick and inmates of Orleans Parish Prison for years.
Later in life, she said she had had a revelation that she was to be the "little bride of Christ." This calling she took with great seriousness, dressing solely in white garments for the rest of her life.
After this revelation, Sister Gertrude's paintings were little figures of herself in a white bridal gown standing beside a pudgy little Jesus wearing a tuxedo. Other images pictured her and Jesus in an airplane flying around heaven. She was adamant that her paintings were divinely inspired and indeed, perhaps they were.
Sister Gertrude died in 1980, at eighty years of age. Her paintings have been exhibited and celebrated in prestigious museums such as the American Folk Art Museum and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
"Jesus is My Airplane," sold to a private collector for $20,700.

Girl with a Pearl Earring
Did we just call out her name? Is she turning to us to whisper a secret? We lose ourselves in her gaze, and all of a sudden we feel a quickening of the heart…a charge of energy.
We are in the presence of a masterpiece.
Girl with a Pearl Earring.
Considered one of the most talented painters in the Dutch Golden Age, Vermeer was a genius in enhancing the sense of vibrancy and mystery through his paints.
How did he achieve the intimacy of this smile?
Look closely at the young girl's mouth. Two small white dots on either side of her mouth, echoes the highlights in her eyes and the light on her pearl earring.
Voila! The young girl's half smile is enlivened!
How did Vermeer achieve the delicious colors of the turban, the cloak?
The rich blue of her turban: The artist procured the blue rock, lapis lazuli, from Afghanistan traders. He then hand-ground the hard rock to powder making that incredible ultramarine blue.
And her vibrant cloak: Yellow flowers gathered and boiled making that special golden earthy color.
But knowing the "how" dims not at all our reverence for the painting. Returning to that face with the liquid eyes and sensual smile, we once again bask in the delight of being in the presence of a true and timeless MASTERPIECE.
Girl with a Pearl Earring: Dutch Paintings From the Mauritshuis can be seen in a rare traveling exhibit at:
de Young Museum, San Francisco:
January 26 – June 2, 2013
High Museum of Art, Atlanta:
June 22 – September 29, 2013

This time last week I was super excited to head to the Manhattan Cocktail Classic Gala which housed a number of amazing nibbles, performances and beverages within four floors of the New York Public Library at Bryant Park this past Fri at 9pm. Many of you saw me tweeting from that night which was very dream like.Officially I was invited by Campari who was celebrating the year of the Negroni and of course, was making that classic beverage throughout the night on the first floor. To see all of the pictures regarding Campari at the gala as well as events that took place over the next few days including seminars and tastings you'll find images here! Make sure to see some of the images including Padma Lakshmi within one of the seminars rocking a gorgeous red dress! Due to it being the year of the Negroni, what better way to truly enhance this drink as making it apart of your overall look for a chic night out? Whether you're a guy or a girl, you can always use a pop of rosy red amber to set you apart from the crowd! It's definitely a drink of sophistication and distinction for all of your looks and is perfect for library inspired bars as well as rooftops! Bowties and clutches are optional.

10 Most American-Made Cars Of 2012
What happened to the all-American family minivan during the SUV-happy '90s and 2000s? It got a big hug from Japanese automakers. Sure, Chrysler still makes its Town and Country and Dodge Caravan models -- in Canada. The Toyota Sienna(TM) and the competing Honda Odyssey are made right here in the U.S. and give families the room they need with the V6 power they want when a road trip reaches more than one "Are we there yet?" per mile. Both are up to task, but the Honda loses on the cards, with only 70% of its parts coming from the U.S.
2. 2012 Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana

Assembled: Wentzville, Mo.

Percentage Made In U.S.: 82%
The minivan is nice and all, but your eight-kid family or 14-member Little League team still can't wedge into one. That's where these shuttle-bus-sized vehicles come in. Usually a working van for contractors or emergency responders, the Express and Sierra are also popular enough as people movers to soak up nearly 45% of America's full-sized van market. That's still behind Ford's E-Series, but GM has a stronger claim to the Made in the U.S.A. Label.
1. 2012 Toyota Avalon

Assembled: Georgetown, Ky.

Percentage Made In U.S.: 85%

Product Review: Cool 2 Cast Fiber Plaster
// April 2nd, 2012 // Comments Off // Art Jewelry, Beads, & Glass, Blog
I received a sample of Cool 2 Cast Fiber Plaster and some push molds and I have to say I love this product. It makes my head spin with ideas.
It's super easy to use! Just mix with water, pour into the molds (I like to tap them on a flat surface like a table a couple of times to settle the mix, we used to do that with plaster of paris when it was watered down back in school) and let it set up for about an hour.
The possibilities are really limitless. I have plans to use some brightly colored tissue paper and mod podge to do stained glass backgrounds and then stamp over those.
What I had on hand though, were some markers, a big set of Prismacolor Watercolor pencils and some matte finish Krylon. So I decided to do some art.
The first is a necklace I call 'Gar'. It's based on an old Celtic design.
The second is destined to be a pair of earrings with the working title of 'Day and Night in Hill Country'. I live in Texas and of course this time of year bluebonnets are everywhere. My day job takes me on long trips so I see lots of fields and meadows. I love old broken down fences and flowers, it's a combination I never get tired of looking at. These obviously aren't finished but I have glued the Ultrasuede backing on, that's the choppy looking stuff around the edges. That's how I attach my beadweaving and by the time it's finished those rough edges won't show. I thought you might like to see a piece in progress though. You can also see that the casted pieces are thick and I like that. An added bonus is anything made with Cool 2 Cast is feather light so you can go big and austentatious and not have to be afraid that you'll feel like you're wearing bowling balls in your ears, always a plus.
Pick up some Cool 2 Cast and see what you can do! You can paint, stamp, glue…..I even carved around on these. The extremely white lines and dots are where I actually carved into the Cool 2 Cast with one of my little files.
Also, if you should pull your pieces of of the mold and find a slight blemish (which is actually really rare, I was *very* impressed with the lack of lumps and/or bubbles) it's easy to use a fine file or fine sandpaper to smooth the surface. Heck, use a fingernail file or buffer, we all have those!
I'm having so much fun with my Cool 2 Cast, I know you will too.

Now is your chance!! The market, when all is economically well, tends to favor the seller. Sellers have been somewhat in the driver's seat for the last 5-7 years. Buyers now have oodles of opportunities with loans (definitely look at FHA loans right now), discounts from banks wanting to make loans (for example free credit reports and appraisal offers), home inspectors who have been slower than normal – offering price cuts, real estate agents with inventories they need to move may work with you, builders sitting on inventory where things have slowed down, sellers that have financial needs to sell their properties, foreclosures, and the list goes on and on. There is also an abundance of loan programs. Traditional mortgage loans to 100% loans and the use of THDA grant monies, special loan packages for people in the medical profession and teachers and tax credits all add up to home buyers having more on their side than they have had in a while.
Visit my website to search our local markets and MLS to educate yourself on the market. See what is out there that fits your needs. If you haven't looked in a while, you may like what you see. Websites also have tools (Personal Retriever) where you can fill out what criteria you are looking for and it will e-mail you everything that comes on the market that meets your request!
This is a big investment. Treat it like one. Consult local professionals and do your homework, and it will be the best investment you can make. Home inspectors, title experts, termite inspectors, a solid lender, reputable closing attorney, surveyors, appraisers, good real estate agent, and a reasonable seller all coming together is a very rewarding experience. However, it only takes one small piece of a big puzzle to affect the outcome of a real estate transaction very adversely. Make sure again, that you are educated and informed throughout the process.
Get pre-approved before you start looking!! When it comes to offer time you can save thousands in the negotiating game by being prepared when its offer time. Low ball offers more often than not put sellers on the defensive and do not spur the feeding frenzy that a good offer can provide. Look at the home as an investment. Everybody likes the warm fuzzy feelings some homes can make you feel, but ultimately it is a long term investment and has to fit your needs.
There's more to come, but for now there is work to be done. Please feel free to call anytime. My company and I look forward to serving you!!

Maxwell Park fear area after commuter is attacked
December 7, 2009 by localnews · Leave a Comment
Police in Pollokshields are looking for four young men who threatened and robbed a man in Maxwell Park.
The 59-year-old, who was punched in the face but otherwise unharmed, later told police he was concerned for the safety of local people who like to enjoy the park.
The incident took place at around 6.15pm on Wednesday December 2, when the man returning from work, got off a train at Pollokshields East station in Terreagles Avenue.
On his regular route through the park he was approached by four men who threatened him with a weapon – which he did not see – before punching him on the face and stealing a three-figure sum of money. They ran off in the direction of St Andrews Drive.
A small amount of money was recovered in the park shortly afterwards.
The suspects are described as four Asian males, aged approximately 17 to 19 years of age. All were wearing dark hooded tops and dark trousers.
Anyone with information on the attack is asked to contact the Robbery Unit at Pollok Police Office on 0141 532 5639 or Crimestoppers can be called anonymously on 0800 555111.

Remember Me
By JENNA FRYER
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Bruton Smith just can't help himself sometimes.
The eccentric track owner this week suggested he might move a race away from Charlotte Motor Speedway at the exact same time a committee is considering electing him into the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
When the 54 voters cast their ballots today, it will be impossible to overlook Smith's most recent headline-grabbing stunt. He told Charlotte television station WBTV on Monday there's a "70 percent chance" he'll move the October race at Charlotte to his Las Vegas property.
He backtracked Tuesday in a statement that indicated his comments were out of anger in his fight with Cabarrus County over taxes.
"No final decision has been made regarding any race date move and I have not discussed this with NASCAR," he asserted, before listing $100 million in improvements at CMS the past six years. "We've done this without asking for a handout from the government, like we've seen from so many other sports facilities, teams or franchises, and yet at the same time property values are falling during the recession, our Cabarrus County taxes have doubled since 2005."
Smith was left off the list of 25 nominees the first four years of the Hall of Fame. He maintained he didn't care but when his name was finally added last month to the list of nominees, the overwhelming congratulations made him realize the magnitude of the honor.
"It wasn't something I was particularly concerned about," Smith said in a recent interview from the office he works out of at his Ford dealership. "But then I was nominated and became a candidate and all the people around me told me how wonderful it was. So it was wonderful."
The public tax squabble could jeopardize his chances to become a first ballot Hall-of-Famer. But that's who Smith is — he says what he thinks at the moment and doesn't much worry about consequences. He also likes to bluff and the game is much easier when you've got as many chips as the billionaire owner of Speedway Motorsports Inc.
It's a game he's long played with NASCAR, dating to the early days when founder Bill France Sr. was still building his regional stock-car series. Smith has been hooked since his family took him as an 8-year-old to the old Charlotte Fairground for his first race.
"I loved it so damn much, I needed another set of eyes because I couldn't see enough," recalled Smith, who was driving cars at 11 and figured out by 16 the vehicles he had access to didn't go fast enough for his liking.
His plan wasn't to become a race promoter; Smith maintains he was "talked into that" during a driver meeting. But he agreed to give it a shot and despite heavy rains the day of the race, made enough money on his first event that his interest was piqued.
So Smith tried to promote a second race and made a little more money, correcting the mistakes he'd made in his first outing. By the time he promoted his third event, he was hooked.
"Making money can be quite habit forming," Smith said.
He soon began working with France in promoting races for the fledgling National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing,and Smith built his first permanent motorsports facility — Charlotte Motor Speedway, which opened for business in June 1960 with NASCAR's first 600-mile race.
"It was hot. God it was hot," Smith replied when asked his memory of that first event. But he also takes pride in that when he opened Charlotte, he did it with a bang: "The World 600 was the longest race — there'd never been anything like it. It had the largest purse, $100,000, and nobody had ever heard of a purse of $100,000 for a stock car race. But we wanted to be the biggest and we wanted to be something special. So that's what we did."
Only he was $400,000 in debt to his creditors after building the track and Smith was unable to get any loans; he went into bankruptcy reorganization and SMI emerged debt-free.
He was off and running from there, building a portfolio of eight tracks that currently host 13 races on the Sprint Cup schedule. And SMI has set the gold standard in amenities and fan experience because of the vision Smith has had.
Smith pours money into his tracks, paying for upgrades at outdated facilities and finding ways to enhance the fan experience. He was the first promoter to install permanent lights for a NASCAR race and bought Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee and transformed it into a must-visit event.
Smith made enemies along the way and sparred often with Bill France Jr. during his reign as head of NASCAR.
He told The Associated Press his greatest regret in racing is letting France Jr. roll over him at a time they could have formed a partnership. Smith claims the late France Jr. asked to speak to him during an event at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York and asked Smith "to help me build NASCAR.
"I said to him, 'Billy, what the hell do you think I've been doing all these years'?" Smith recalled. "I'll always regret that I did not drive a harder bargain with Billy. I helped him with no compensation."
As a result, Smith's status in NASCAR has never changed: he's viewed as just another track promoter. Only he's got the biggest mouth, the fattest checkbook and the ability to push every button in the NASCAR hierarchy.
The at-track experience is what it is today because of Smith and the initiatives SMI has taken has pushed NASCAR sister company Speedway Motorsports Inc. to up its game, too. And that's what is most important to Smith.
"I wanted race fans, when they come to a race, a year or two later they may not remember who won that day," Smith added. "But they are going to remember the pre-race show, they are going to remember their experience at the track and what was good and what worked and what didn't work. That has always been our goal to make sure the fans had the time of their lives at the track."doing all these years'?" Smith recalled. "I'll always regret that I did not drive a harder bargain with Billy. I helped him with no compensation."

KALIDA — Kalida veteran baseball coach Jim McBride was looking to use Tuesday night's home finale versus Liberty-Benton as a tune-up for tonight's Elida Division IV District semifinal versus St. John's, save for using his top two pitchers.
Unfortunately, the Eagles — who have already been eliminated from the tournament — were looking to end their 2013 spring season well by sending out their eight seniors on a winning note and were throwing their ace, Jared Neiling.
The Eagles rode the 4-hit shutout of Neiling (7-1; 5 strikeouts) to an 11-0 5-inning triumph.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — AJ Allmendinger's parents attended their first Indianapolis 500 in 1979, when they camped in a grassy lot and watched Rick Mears win his first 500.
Their son was born two years later — Greg Allmendinger named him after A.J. Foyt, his favorite driver — and for a time it seemed like the Allmendingers would make it back to Indy with him. Allmendinger had risen through the open-wheel ranks to become one of the top drivers in the Champ Car Series with a five-win 2006 season.
But a NASCAR opportunity came along and Allmendinger switched series and the dream of one day cheering on their son in the "Biggest Spectacle In Racing" began to fade.
Until one bad decision cost Allmendinger the best job he ever had — and Roger Penske decided to give him a rare second chance.
Allmendinger will make his Indianapolis 500 debut on Sunday, seven years after he left open-wheel racing — in a Penske Racing entry, no less. It doesn't get much bigger or better than this and all these years later, Allmendinger has finally brought his parents back to the 500.
He's posed for pictures at his car with his parents, who arrived in Indianapolis in time to see Allmendinger qualify fifth on Saturday.
"Then my Dad went and found Larry Foyt and said, 'Where's your Dad at? I want to go meet him, I haven't met him yet ... By the way, I'm AJ's dad'," Allmendinger recalled. "It'll be cool to really share this with my parents, especially my Dad. For them to experience this."
It's funny how life sometimes works out and Allmendinger has learned enough in the last 10 months not to question why things happen.
Allmendinger is a better person because he stupidly accepted a strange pill from a friend who said it would help with his fatigue. Allmendinger says the pill he popped last June was Adderall — he didn't ask what it was as he was swallowing it — and it caused him to fail a random NASCAR drug test. Suspended hours before the July race at Daytona, Allmendinger was out of a job since Penske had no choice but to fire the driver when the backup "B" sample also came back positive.
He participated in NASCAR's "Road to Recovery" program and learned during that time he had to stop putting so much pressure on himself, that his happiness didn't solely depend on his results on the race track. He had Penske's support the entire time, even though the team owner had zero responsibility to a driver whose six months of employment had brought embarrassment to the great Penske organization
Allmendinger didn't ask Penske why he was standing behind him, why he brought him out to the IndyCar season finale at Fontana in September as his guest, or why he continued to think of ways to get Allmendinger back in the race car.
When The Captain called and asked Allmendinger if he had any interest in running the Indianapolis 500, the only thing Allmendinger answered was "Yes, sir. Whatever you want, sir."
"I feel very fortunate; the racing side of it is great but that he's cared enough to stay in contact," Allmendinger said. "That means way more than putting me in a race car. I'm just enjoying the ride right now. I'm never going to turn down a Roger Penske race car."
This Roger Penske car was another opportunity for a disgraced driver; it didn't matter that it meant returning to the racing he'd walked away from for the fame and fortune of NASCAR.
Only Allmendinger found things to very different when he returned. The competition was much improved all the way down the grid and driving the year-old Indy car was harder than his time in Champ Car.
"I knew it was going to be hard but I didn't know it was going to be this hard," he said. "It's shown that seven years of stock car racing has transformed me. It's everything — the downforce levels, how hard you have to drive the cars to get any kind of lap time. Going to do the test with the series and then going to the races — that field is so strong. Being back in the series, it's a little frustrating because I wish people understood how good these drivers are in this series."
It hasn't been easy at all and Allmendinger has leaned on Penske teammates Helio Castroneves and Will Power in his transition. It was Castroneves who shook down Allmendinger's car before his rookie orientation at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Allmendinger was touched that Castroneves hung around on the pit stand talking to him during his laps on the track.
"He could have easily shook down the car, told Roger it was fine and gone back to the garage and gotten ready for his car. But he stood there on the timing stand, headset on, talking to me. I've been very fortunate and Will has been the same way," said Allmendinger, who struggled with the urge to brake during his first laps and learned quickly if he ran the same line he did in the NASCAR races at Indy he'd end up in the grass.
He's gotten more comfortable with each passing day and his teacher has been none other than Mears, the 4-time Indianapolis winner and the driver his parents saw win all those years ago. From there, it's on to Detroit for the IndyCar doubleheader with Penske.
But Allmendinger has nothing on his schedule beyond the Detroit races. He's run four out of 11 NASCAR races this year with Phoenix Racing but owner James Finch is threatening to shut the team down after the July race at Indy. Allmendinger believes he's got a ride in NASCAR with Finch, he just doesn't know how long that car will be on the track.
He doesn't worry about it though. Allmendinger's experience of landing his dream job then promptly losing it because of a dumb mistake has taught him so much that he didn't hesitate Monday when asked if he's happier now then he was a year ago when he driving in NASCAR for Penske.
"For sure. Definitely," replied Allmendinger, who now just takes things one day at a time.
"It's working out pretty good right now. I thought after 24 Hours of Rolex I wasn't doing anything, so it's worked out pretty well so far. I'm going to ride the wave right now and figure out what happens after that."
Allmendinger, still uber-confident despite his journey, has a plan.
"The way I look at it, if I go win Indy, Roger's gotta give me more races," he smiled.
Castroneves, Franchitti chase 4th Indy 500 win: Helio Castroneves figures plenty of today's fans have never seen a driver win the Indianapolis 500 for a record-tying fourth time.
He can change that Sunday. So could Dario Franchitti.
It's been 22 years since Rick Mears became the third driver with four Indy 500 victories. He won No. 4 in 1991 to join A.J. Foyt and Al Unser in the exclusive club.
This will be the first time since 1987 that two 3-time winners will start the Indy 500.
"What an incredible opportunity for the fans to have not only one but two guys trying to make history," Castroneves said Monday while promoting the race with Franchitti in New York City. "Forget about the names, forget about who it is. But imagine people who didn't even see the last time when the guy won four times."
Scotland's Franchitti or Brazil's Castroneves would be the first foreign-born 4-time winner. Castroneves won his third in 2009, so he's now used to the pressure of trying to tie the record. Since then, Franchitti won No. 2 in 2010 and No. 3 last year.
Castroneves qualified eighth, while Franchitti will start 17th after a frustrating day Saturday for Chip Ganassi Racing. Franchitti, a 4-time IndyCar champion, wrecked early in the season opener and is just 15th in the standings.
Then again, things didn't look much better a year ago — and he went out and won.
"Last year, we had an even worse start to the season," Franchitti said. "We were sitting here this time last year having qualified 16th and we were thinking we're in trouble. Honda brought an updated engine to the race and all of a sudden we're in the game."
Franchitti, who turned 40 on Sunday, remembers when he thought he'd retire at 35. Instead, much of his success has come after that age. All three Indy 500 victories were in the last six years.
Another big milestone with the No. 4 in it could come a week after his birthday. But Franchitti won't try to put that accomplishment into context until it actually occurs.
"To kind of tempt fate a little bit and say what it would mean and what it would feel like and all that stuff, is kind of wasted energy right now," he said.
The 38-year-old Castroneves, who earned his first two Indy 500 victories back-to-back in 2001-02, has the advantage of working with Mears on Team Penske.
Mears won his first three in 1979, 1984 and 1988 before earning the record-tying victory three years later. Foyt and Unser had to wait much longer between Nos. 3 and 4 — Foyt's wins came in 1961, 1964, 1967 and 1977, with Unser's in 1970, 1971, 1978 and 1987.
Compared to that, not much time has passed since Castroneves' last victory.
"If the preparation's right, the opportunity right, it's going to come up naturally," he added.

NEW YORK — Jay Bruce hit a tie-breaking homer and drove in two runs to back Johnny Cueto's wild but effective return from the disabled list as the Cincinnati Reds beat the New York Mets 4-3 Monday night.
Brandon Phillips had a 2-run single for his first career hit off Shaun Marcum in 13 at-bats. Phillips also made two sparkling plays in the field to help the Reds bounce back from a stunning 3-2 loss to the Phillies in which closer Aroldis Chapman gave up two home runs.
Chapman, the Reds' fifth reliever, struck out two — one on a 99-mph fastball — in a perfect ninth for his ninth save. He had blown his two previous save chances.
Cueto (2-0) started for the first time since leaving his outing April 13 in the fifth inning with a strained left upper-back muscle. Making his fourth start of the season, the Reds' ace gave up three hits and three runs with eight strikeouts in five innings. But he walked four, including one in the third, when Marlon Byrd touched him for a 3-run homer.
After the homer, Cueto struck out four in a row with a fastball that reached the mid-90s.
His counterpart, Marcum (0-5), rarely reached 86 mph in pitching at least six innings for the second straight start after failing to finish five in any of his first three starts with the Mets. Still, he remains winless in his first season in New York.
Slumping Mets first baseman Ike Davis slid deeper into his monthlong funk, going 0-for-3 and being called for interference in the field when he was clipped at first by Joey Votto, who was making a turn toward second base in the Reds' 3-run first inning.
Davis was lifted in a double-switch after striking out in the sixth, his second strikeout of the night. He has two hits in his last 36 at-bats and only one RBI in May.
Marcum appeared headed for another early exit after a 20-minute top of the first. He walked Shin-Soo Choo leading off. After an out, Votto, the NL player of the week, hit a smash that ricocheted off first base and into right field. As he made his turn at first, Votto nudged Davis, who was nonchalantly standing near the bag, watching the play. Votto was tagged out at second but Davis was charged with an error for interference and Votto was awarded second.
Phillips followed with a 2-run single and Bruce doubled in a run, extending his hitting streak to 11. Marcum struck out Todd Frazier and Xavier Paul and walked off to mock cheers.
The right-hander changed that by not giving up another hit until Paul singled with two outs in the fourth.
Bruce broke the tie with a line drive into the right-field seats leading off the sixth.
Mets manager Terry Collins took a chance on putting strikeout-prone Rick Ankiel in the second spot in the order because he was 7-for-16 against Cueto and Ankiel led off the third with a single. David Wright walked and, after Lucas Duda struck out, Byrd sent a drive to left field for his fourth homer this year.
Byrd came in 6-for-11 against Cueto.
The Mets loaded the bases in the first on two walks and a single by Duda, bringing up Davis.
The scoreboard operator urged fans to cheer on Davis and many of the 23,038 in attendance made some noise. Davis hit a sharp grounder toward second but Phillips dived to his right to stop it and then threw out Davis.
Phillips then showed why he's a 3-time Gold Glove winner in the fifth, making a long run into center field for a basket catch with his back to the plate. It was a very difficult play but he made it look easy.
Collins and reliever LaTroy Hawkins were ejected by plate umpire Tom Hallion after the top of the seventh for disputing a call that Phillips was hit by a pitch. Collins and Hawkins appeared to insist the ball hit the knob of the bat and not Phillips' hand.
NOTES: The Mets signed RHP David Aardsma to a minor-league contract. He requested his release from the Miami Marlins organization Wednesday. The former Seattle closer missed all of 2011 and made only one appearance late last season with the Yankees. He will report to Triple-A Las Vegas. ... The Reds sent INF Neftali Soto to Triple-A Louisville to make room for Cueto. ... The Mets will host military appreciation night on Sunday. The Mets have given out more than 3,800 tickets to military personnel and their families for the game against Atlanta.

SHAFAQNA (Shia News Association) — Shia youths broke the seal of a Masjid and Imam Bargah in Sargodha on the order of Allama Raja Nasir Abbas Jafri, secretary general of Majlis-e-Wahdat-e-Muslimeen.
Masjid and Imam Bargah Ali un Waliullah Sargodha was sealed off a year ago. The MWM and Imamia Students Organisation (ISO) staged a rally to protest against the seal in Block 7. The rally was turned into a sit-in on Khushab Road.
The protestors were demanding that the seal of the mosque and Imam Bargah should be broken forthwith. Allama Nasir Abbas Jafri directed the youths to break the seal who acted upon his order raising the slogans of Allah-O-Akbar (God is Great).
The mosque and Imam Bargah were sealed off due to a nexus of banned Sipah-e-Sahaba/banned Lashkar-e-Jhangvi with police and administration. —www.shafaqna.com/english/

We had a great time a dolphin cove. Our children really enjoyed swimming with the dolphins and snorkeling. We also got a great deal from Viator. No issues... I will add the transfers to and from your hotel are not included so you would either need to get a cab or arrange for Dolphn Cove transfers (cab might be less restricting and cheaper). If you use Dolphin cove transfers they will tell you what time you have to be ready for the bus and you might feel rushed through the park as there is lots to do. We felt very rushed.

Funerals and viewings help to confirm the reality of death and loss; they provide a climate for the expression of emotions; they allow the sorrows of one to become the sorrows of many; they are one of the few times the expression of love is given and not expected in return; they are a vehicle for the community to pay its respects; they encourage the affirmation of religious faith or individual spirituality & beliefs. They are a declaration that a life has been lived, as well as a sociological statement that death has occurred; they help begin a Healthy Coping Process for those who have suffered a loss; and they help us to embrace, find, or create personal meaning in a time of change...
Grief Does Not End After the Funeral
For those who have experienced a loss, coping with grief can be a long and difficult journey. Each person's grief experience will be unique. There is no "perfect", "right" or "correct" way to process a loss.
So, how do we heal? The ability for you to "make real" the death of a loved one, strive for acceptance, and create personal meaning; is what healing is all about. This is not done by repressing feelings associated with grief or avoiding situations and objects that remind you of someone you've lost. We heal by letting ourselves experience the feelings associated with grief. The healing process does not occur over night. It may take weeks, months, years, or even a life time- depending on the person, relationship, and the circumstances surrounding the loss. We find that "Time does not heal, but we have the ability to heal over time". One doesn't just "get over" a loss, and acceptance is not always an absolute. Your loss and your grief will never magically disappear; but you will learn to live with it over time.
We Create Honoring and Healing Experiences
It's All About the Relationship
Funerals and Viewings are events that help to initiate the healing process and honor a life that has been lived. Honoring a Life is a true expression of love of the deceased, for you, and for others who are left behind to grieve a loss. It affirms the love that binds you, and continues to bind you all together. Celebrating the unique life of your loved one gives you, your family, and acquaintances a time to focus on the special relationship that all of you value and cherish... In addition to giving you an opportunity to say "good bye".
We look forward to helping you create a tribute, to celebrate that bond, and honor a precious life. The staff of Boston Funeral Service will help guide you and your family in arranging a meaningful event or ceremony. We can make suggestions to enhance your tribute ideas. Together, we will create a fitting and memorable experience. This meaningful event or ceremony can be anything you wish it to be: simple or elaborate, traditional or unique. No matter how it's tailored, creating and experiencing a meaningful funeral tribute is an important step in coping with your loss.
You Can Never Go Back and Do it Over
Some say it's harsh to remind you of this, but we know we must. We want you to honor your loved one in a way that allows you to look back, years from now, and be thankful that you did the best you could to honor their life. Creating a ceremony that calls together the hearts and minds of all who loved them is a gift to everyone involved. -A gift of memories, a gift of healing...a truly priceless gift of peace-of-mind.
The Importance of Viewing
What is a Viewing? A viewing is a formal or informal, public or private event of physically seeing and being present with your loved one, dear friend, or respected acquaintance after their death. Viewings usually take place immediately or a few days after a death; but they can also take place a week or more following a loss.
When you experience a sudden loss, life seems to move from the "real" to the "surreal". In order to cope, it is recommended you need to make extra time for yourself from our fast paced society to begin adjusting to what has happened. It is important to simply "be in the moment" and "make real" what has just happened.
For those of who have experienced the long road of caring for a loved before their death, your experience of loss may seem to be a release. -A release of seeing your loved one suffer or a release of having to over extend yourself & feel burnout as a caretaker. The feeling of release and feeling burnout is a normal grief reaction but can lead to guilt. Viewings help us to normalize these feelings. Viewings may help you to see and be with your loved one in a peaceful atmosphere.
Viewings: Common False Reassurances and Maladaptive Personal Platitudes
"I want to remember them the way they were"
You will always remember your loved one the way they were in life... even if you participate a viewing. Your memories are dear to you and they should be cherished. But, viewings are about closure, coping, and adjusting to change... they are about facing your grief... they are finding or making personal meaning; and emotionally relocating your loved one.
"By not viewing, I can avoid the pain of loss"
You will always feel the sting of loss. You can never avoid, but only delay, postpone, or displace the feelings associated with grief by repressing them. Repressed feeling can evoke maladaptive behavior and can even cause an unanticipated catharsis of emotions when least expected.
"I don't want people gawking at me when I'm dead"
Viewings are for the living. They create an atmosphere where family and friends can "offer or pay one's last respects". For those who attend, they do so to offer comfort, not only to the immediate survivors, but also for themselves. The act of "offering or paying" one's last respect is a statement that expresses: "I cared about you and care for your family". It also expresses that I care about myself and want to make real the death of someone close to me.
We are concerned about how you are coping with your loss and grief. We know that grief is a journey that takes time to reconcile with. Even though feelings of sadness and despair are difficult, patience is a virtue. If you just need to talk or have questions or concerns, we would like to take the time to help. We are more than just counsel to your grief. We are a friendly face and a compassionate ear. Please feel free to call upon us.

Art Cinema
255 Franklin Avenue,
5 people favorited this theater
The Rialto Theatre was built in 1919 and is Hartford's last operating classic movie house. It was formerly part of a chain that included the Colonial Theatre, Lenox Theatre and Lyric Theatre in Hartford, and the Central Theatre in West Hartford. When business waned, it started showing art films in the 1950's, hence the name Art Cinema.
Nowadays, however, it is the last remaining adult cinema in town and has been showing X-Rated features for decades. The theater seats 601 (350 on the main level, 251 on the balcony) and still has a 35mm projector, but it is not used at all because the adult films are on video.
The Art Cinema is now run by Ernest Grecula Jr., having previously been run by his father, and has been in the family for 40 years.
Recent comments (view all 12 comments)
A few months ago The Hartford Advocate wrote an article on this theatre citing that its missleading from the outside- it looks like it could be an art house cinema. Then again instead of being R.A.W. (Real Art Ways- Hartford's alternative movie theatre), I'm sure it's just raw in a gross way.
This is the article from the Hartford Advocate mentioned above.
On my way back from Cinestudio last night I decided to do a bit of exploring and stumbled upon this theater. Needless to say, I was surprised when I entered the lobby to inquire about the program. Still, a very cool find in an interesting neighborhood.
One of the venues for this year's Hartford International Film Festival. I'll provide a few notes on the theater after my film Artery screens there, this Saturday at 12:15PM (not to put in a shameless plug or anything).
Since this was in the same family as the Colonial does anyone know if it was a Lockwood & Gordon house?
This web page about the Lyric Theatre says that its architect, Edward T. Wiley, also designed the Art Cinema.
Their website (which is work safe) features some nice interior shots of the theater. The digital projector is located right off of the upper/center balcony.

May, 2012
More and more, the average person is using their computer for incredibly processor-intensive tasks like 3D multi-player gaming, HD video editing, and more. So you need a CPU that can do more than just handle the demands, it needs to excel. Fortunately, Intel® is constantly raising the bar for CPU speed and capabilities, and their new 3rd generation Intel® Core™ i5 and Core™ i7 processors, codenamed Ivy Bridge, are the latest design to set that bar even higher. They do more, they do it lightning fast, and they're coming our way.
Like most people, you're probably running a bunch of different applications and programs at once. And if anyone understands what that needs from a CPU, Intel does. That's why they've developed Intel Hyper-Threading Technology. It allows each core of your processor to work on two tasks at the same time, delivering the performance you need for smart multi-tasking. What does that mean in the real world? As an example, multimedia enthusiasts can create and edit graphically intensive files while running background applications such as virus protection software without compromising system performance. Or go ahead and open spreadsheets, surf the web, copy files, and watch video, all at the same time. You won't even notice how hard your CPU is working.
Different applications put different demands on your CPU, so you need one that can react accordingly, and allocate speed and power where and when it's needed. That's exactly what Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 was designed to do. It dynamically adjusts speed where it's needed, and gives you an extra burst when you need it most. Your 3rd gen Intel Core processor will operate at a level that's higher than it's rated for for short durations to maximize performance.
Want amazing graphics and true-to-life visuals? With 3rd generation Intel Core processors you don't need any extra hardware. All that capability is built in. Intel HD Graphics and Clear Video HD Technology integrates the graphics engine and media processing right on the chip to give you stunningly life-like graphics and sharper, smoother images with richer colors for a true feast for the eyes.
3rd generation Intel Core processors deliver amazing performance, stunning visuals and give you the speed you need whether you're working, creating, sharing, exploring, gaming, or doing all of those at once.
