The self-portrait project has returned! I hope y'all had a lovely Thanksgiving. We had some family come visit and I'll eventually be sharing photos from our excursion to the St. Louis Arch.
So what else new has been going on during the break from this project? I have discovered the wonderfulness that is the Curly Girl book by Lorraine Massey! One day on Facebook I was saying (complaining) how difficult it is to get my hair to curly nicely by itself. I can get it to behave with a curling iron and last year I had my hair layered so it would somewhat curl when I used a diffuser. But my hair gets fried so quickly and easily by heat and I wanted to find a less damaging way to get it to curl. My hair has a lot of natural wave and curl to it already but it's always been so poofy and frizzy unless I used heat to tame it. The answer to my problem: one of my friends recommended the Curly Girl book.
A few months ago I got my hair chopped off not just because the ends were so fried and awful but also to make it easier to straighten my hair into behaving. The stylist said the typical things I hear every time I get my hair cut. "Your hair is so thick!" "It must take a lot of effort to get your hair to do what you want." After reading the Curly Girl book I realized it's this mindset, the "change my hair" mindset that has been causing all of my problems. I'm trying to get my hair to do what it wasn't made to do. God made my hair wavy and curly and that's how it's going to be.
My hair is still getting used to the new shampoo and conditioner I'm using according to the Curly Girl rules. (I don't have the money to use DevaCurl products so I'm using something else.) Sometimes my hair is super curly and sometimes it's just wavy. The weather has a big affect on my hair too. I could probably predict the weather just by the shape of my hair. The pieces around my face usually curl pretty nicely though, which is why that's the only part of my hair you can see in this self-portrait. Of course my hair would decide to be wavy on the day I designated to take photos. I'll be sure to get a better, curlier photo to share with y'all so I can give you a better example of how my hair has changed since starting Curly Girl. Like what always happens with things like this, I forgot to take a "before" photo to compare with the upcoming curlier, healthier photo. This self-portrait project contains more than enough evidence though of the torture I've put my hair through.
Those curls around my face are completely natural! When I would use a curling iron the curls would turn out flatter and not have as much body to them. Not anymore though! After only a few days of the Curly Girl method I was seeing massive improvements to my hair. Almost two weeks later and the changes continue. I'm still figuring out what cleansing and conditioning schedule is best for my hair, but now I actually look forward to washing my hair instead of dreading it like I have for so long. As I told a curly haired friend of mine when I was recommending the book to her, "This might sound funny, but I'm not exaggerating when I say that this book has changed my life."

South Africa
One of the world's largest mining companies De Beers is spending 2 billion US dollars tunnelling beneath a vast open-pit mine in South Africa, as prospecting for diamonds in the country is increasingly becoming difficult
De Beers spent more than 20 years digging a 450-metre hole to access diamond-rich rock from the surface at the Venetia mine, close to the border with Zimbabwe and Botswana.
Now, a whole new underground mine is being constructed underneath the hole to reach diamonds more than 1,000 metres below ground
The easier sources have probably been found, but I still believe that we've got (like) this resource here, something that can extend well into the future, and even as we plan it now around 2040-43.
Venetia mine's General Manager, Ludwig Von Maltitz said these are very challenging times.
VIDEO | Diamonds getting harder to find in South Africa: De Beers https://t.co/7NMe8lGkOE— SABC News Online (@SABCNewsOnline) May 8, 2016
"The easier sources have probably been found, but I still believe that we've got like this resource here, something that can extend well into the future, and even as we plan it now around 2040-43, we are hopeful that we can take it even beyond 2043, by extending it at the time that we get down to that levels," he said.
Unstable and tumbling diamond prices forced De Beers to close down mines in Botswana and Canada in 2015. Amid the swings, Maltitz said the hunt continues.
"I still believe, although we have challenges, it's important that we take the communities, the employees with. If we can do it good enough, I can't see why mining should not a lucrative business going forward in terms of that space."
The company's future plans include training miners to work in different, often harsh conditions in order to fully exploit its ventures.

A friend of mine, soul reader, told me some time ago that my place was in Nature, that was going to help express and develop my art. "Go back to the trees" …was the sentence that was constantly appearing in my thoughts.
In contrary to what the system says, I like to believe that we should flow in life like a river. Like a leaf that floats in the course of a river supported by the detours of the little waves, pushed by the branches, and flowing with the sound of the Universe to some determined destiny. –"Don't make planes for Life so you don't spoil the plans Life as for you". – The system says we have to fight for life. Competition, instead of mutual help, is something that we are motivated to since school time, and much more other nonsense that format us since the beginning of our supposed education.
Like this I've meet Jens and Francisca. They've invited me to visit their home in Quinta das Praias, and they showed me a little house next to theirs. I've accepted right away their invitation to change. Quinta das Praias is located in an oasis of trees, surrounded by huge fields of agricultural plantations. A few hundred meters ahead is the rive Tagus in its wild state, with big islands of branches and logs in which the big birds land. At 2 km the city of Santarém, at 80 from Lisbon.
Jens and Francisca are beautiful beings. Wise in spirit and Art, yoga lovers, the ideal companions for who shares the same ideals and life philosophy. Twenty years of age difference for me, but in the matters of the soul, we know time doesn't exist. A year ago they've left Barcelona and came to Santarém, to start the project of a residency for artists. And I am the first resident artist. I hope this is the beginning of something big.

I decided to start with something SUPER simple. Pink nails, with a silver glitter accent nail. Here's the original image, which I found on Pinterest.
Simple enough, right??
I don't think that it went too badly, if I do say so myself. I used a different color pink, but that's kind of irrelevant. I used Muchi Muchi by Essie for the pink, and the silver is a polish that my sister got from Icing. (I'm dreading having to take off the glitter polish, but that's irrelevant.)
I don't think that I'd keep my nails like this too often, just because I keep seeing the shiny silver out of the corner of my eye, and it keeps distracting me so I'm going slightly crazy. Otherwise, I like it! It would be fun for a special occasion, maybe with a black dress.
Side note: TAKING PHOTOS OF YOUR NAILS IS HARD, GUYS. For some strange reason I really hate my hands, so having to take a photo of them is extremely annoying. I can't figure out a "pose" that doesn't look super awkward and dumb. CAN ANYBODY HELP ME WITH THIS?? I MIGHT LOSE MY MIND.
So what do y'all think? Do you like this style? Any tips for photo-taking?

the peeping tom
another paid story. enjoy
Olivia runs her hand through her hair, looking towards the door, wondering about the individual on the other side. Shes been a member of the special crimes unit for several years and has run through many sensitive cases over the years but has never heard of a man who took such sadistic pleasure in torturing his victims. What makes this case all the more difficult is the one witness who seems available able to say anything is a young boy whos had an eye on her since she was his babysitter when he was little. That shes a neighbor who lives not half a block down from his residence makes everything all the more personal as shes had personal run ins with the young man for his numerous offenses of being a peeping tom. But this time it may be that his habit may actually be one to serve in catching a potential rapist and killer. She just hopes Mark is cooperative.
As Mark opens the door she sees a young man with a scruffy unshaved goatee and wandering eyes, a 79'rs shirt on his thin frame with light jeans and a cap to compliment the wardrobe. She sighs inwardly and looks towards the young man.
Mark, we need to talk, she says.
No we dont, says the young man shutting the door.
She presses her hand against the frame, holding it open as she pushes her foot inside.
This is an important case that might be a matter between life and death, do you understand?
I understand youre trying to force your way into my property. Now lay off! he says indignantly.
You can work with me or I can bring you up on those charges with peeping that youve been caught with and impeding an investigation.
So what? he says. Ive done time before. Nothing new.
Mark, she says, exasperated. Dont you care that someones life may be on the line? she says, trying to appeal to the young mans humanity.
No, he says, but I care about what color of panties youre wearing.
What?! she says, what does that have to do with anything?
Nothing if you dont want any info, he says. So what color are they?
She groans inwardly. Mark is the lowest type of scum there is, but at least hes no killer. Not yet at least. Shell have to play his game if she wants the information, she thinks, even if it disgust her.
Pink, alright, she says. Now, will you let me in?
The young man swings the door open wide, spreading his arms as if inviting her in. After you, he says.
Youre such an ass, she says.
Its part of my charm, he says, a wide grin splitting his lips. She hisses silently. Shes going to hate working with this man, she can just tell.
As she walks into the apartment, Olivia wrinkles her nose. The smell is appalling and she can not take a step without stepping on wrinkled wrappers or dirtied clothes, all of them strewn about the floor, leaving it a stinking mess. The couches where the young man tosses himself on are no better, torn and smelling of sweat and semen.
Gonna take a seat? he says, already gripping a beer and popping the tab in one swift motion.
Isnt it a bit early to be drinking? she says.
The young man grins at her with mischievous eyes before taking a swig from his beverage.
Never too early, specially after what Ive seen. Some serious shit.
Ignoring her surroundings, Olivia walks around the dirty furniture, taking a seat on the cleaner part of the open couch.
And what are those things you saw? What did you see, Mark? she ask in a serious tone.
The young man leans his head back, pinching the bridge of his nose as he nods and looks towards her once more.
Not too good about talking about it, he says, but I can show you.
You do realize were talking about a murder, she says. Showing me may not be the best idea if you know what I mean?
Im no killer, Ms. B, he says, spreading his arms. Now do you want me to show you or do you want to use the door?
Olivia grits her teeth, her hands clenching in front of her. She needs that information but shes wondering exactly what it is this kid wants to do that he wishes to show her rather than simply tell her. But she may have no choice. Not if she wishes to bring just to Brenda Tanning. She pulls out the photo, sliding it across the dirty table towards him.
You know this woman? she says.
He picks the photo up, gazing at it before placing it back down.
Yeah, thats ol Brenda. A real whore, she was.
You know shes dead, correct?
Yeah, no one knows that better than me, Ms. B, he says, his voice lowering as he speaks. I saw it, I watched it happen.
He leans forward, shaking his head.
She had shitty taste in men, he says. She shoulda chosen me instead of that creep that done her in.
Olivia grimaces at the thought.
Do tell, she says, trying to get him to talk.
He puts down the alcohol, walking around her. She keeps her eyes pinned on him as he circles around her.
Ol Tommy, he says, hes a big ol shit. Guy is a linebacker, big and huge and black as sin with this nice little city white girl. Always come looking for Brenda in the middle of the night and the bitch always liked spreading for him.
Always wondered if they knew I was watching as theyd keep the blinds open all the time, letting me see what they were doing.
He traces his fingers slowly over Olivias hand, a small shiver running up her spine as he does so. Her skin crawls at the touch but if she can keep him talking then shell let him do as he pleases as long as he gives her what she wants.
Alright, so what happened on the 22nd of October?
Thats what Im getting to, he says, moving his fingers away from her. Ya see, I know Brenda, shes a hot little thing, slender body with a white skin like pearl and every night round 2 am, there she is, with her lights on in her room, all alone, shimmying out of her clothes, touching herself, and as he says this his fingers trail slowly down Olivias shoulder, brushing over her cleavage. She moves to her left, thinking the touch may be accidental, but uncertain.
And then? she says.
Well, this red head, she says, she always be spreading her legs out, sticking her fingers in and out of that wet slit of hers, groaning as she looks out the window.
That seems odd, says Olivia. Had the woman been aware there was a peeping tom at her window, but nothing was ever reported. So why does it seem like she knew he was watching or perhaps even participating in the act? What makes you think she knew you were there?
The young mans hand trails over her shoulder as he thinks back to that event.
She knew, he says. Her eyes would always wander in my direction as shed spread her pussy out for me, pushing her fingers in and out. Telling ya, she knew I was out there, watching, and she was getting off on it. Just sliding those fingers in and out of that wet slit, as if telling me to come inside and fuck her.
But you didnt, says Olivia.
Hell no! You seen the size of Tommy Ortiz? he says. That fucker is as huge as an oxe! No way am I messing with something like that for a small piece of ass. Uh uh. I like keeping my neck where it is.
So what happened? she ask, not liking how Marks hands have slid over her shoulders and seem to be massaging them.
Thats what Im getting to, Ms. B, he says. Just be patient!
Olivia finds her nails digging into the couch cushion as the young man continues his tail of lewdness, remembering the young redhead hes spoken about and how it looked like shed had her neck snapped by a very large man, her blank eyes staring from the photo as the police had investigated, pulling at Olivias heart. A woman of such youth, snuffed out for what purpose? Jealousy? Revenge? Or just being in the wrong place at the wrong time? She didnt know, but she intended to find out. But right now, as Marks hands travel down her shoulders, she is beginning to doubt her safety as the boy continues with his game.
Now, while that bitch was looking at me, fingering herself, in comes ol Tommy, big as a mountain and built like an oxe. He grabs our little ladys long red hair like this, he says, his fingers intertwining in Olivias hair only for his hand to jerk her head back painfully.
Mark, what are you...
But she doesnt get to speak further as the young man begins to kiss her roughly, his mouth over hers, tongue playing with the inside of hers, pushing against her teeth and tongue, twisting spirals inside. Olivia finds herself drawing marks across the couch as Mark does this, his hand slipping beneath her top, beneath her bra, gripping her breasts and massaging it. He pulls away from her gasping lips slowly, speaking.
Ol Tommy, he liked to play rough, kissing the girl hard as he went along, gripping those nice tits of her good and tight! he says.
His hand presses down on her tit meat making Olivia groan as he does so, his fingers taking the tip of her nipple and tugging at the tip as he presses the nub between his two fingers.
Now Brenda, he says, she had a nice rack, kinda like you.
His mouth comes down towards her neck, trailing down it, even going so far as to nip at the skin and tug at it as he bites.
Yeah, he says, she was a good looking bitch, but Tommy could only do the whole foreplay thing so long before he needed more.
Mark what are you doing? she says. This... this...
She hears his zipper come down, the click of metal ringing seeming so loud against her ears and suddenly she is feeling Mark turning her head, twisting her neck painfully as his member is unfurled from beneath his underwear, his cock slapping lightly against her forehead, making her wince.
Mark... dont, she gasp.
Yeah... the young man drones, seemingly high on his own words. Ol Tom, he wasnt much for the foreplay stuff. He just wanted a feel of those nice red lips against his cock like so.
Olivia feels her head being twisted, fingers jabbing her cheeks and pulling at her gums and lips, seeming to spread her lips open and even though she tries to resist, the feelings of discomfort like this are so new to her that she doesnt resist for long and finds the young mans member sliding between her lips and forcing its way to the back of her throat, making her eyes bulge as the thick cock slides in further and deeper.
Yeah, Tommy, that boy, he liked those soft red lips on his cock. Loved how shed give him head and curl her lips around his big pink head, sucking the shit off. Just like youre doing for me right now, he says.
Olivia feels as her head bobs back and forth even as she tries to push away from the young man, feeling as his cock seems to stiffen inside her mouth, the head of his phallus poking at the roof of her mouth, twitching as it becomes hard. She simply stares, wondering how it is that she got in so deep that such a thing like this would happen to her? And Mark, he seems oblivious to it all, his actions almost drone like as he continues with his sordid tale, seeming ignorant of what he is doing to her. Olivia can only hope he does not last long.
Yeah, Mark says, thrusting against Olivias tonsils again and again as he pushes against her throat, holding her head down against the sofa cushion while one hand slips beneath her top, fondling her breast. Yeah, you keep working it with your tongue like that, just like that whore, he says, gasping.
Brenda was sure having problems breathing around that dudes cock, Ill tell ya, he says. Eyes going all big like saucers and such! Such a lazy bitch she couldnt work her mans cock between her lips. Just a lazy whore. You could see her slapping at the blankets, even hear her whine from the other side of the windows. Really was a pathetic sight to see, the dumb whore!
Olivia herself is having troubles trying to breathe around the mans member, it pistoning in and out of her mouth at a rapid pace, beating against the back of her neck so shes nearly choking, the bile churning in her stomach. She can feel herself about ready to dry heave, but Mark seems completely ignorant to the fact, continuing with his story as he speaks to her.
Yeah, he says, I could see her head bobbing up and down like a good ol whore even while she was trying to breathe around that mans cock. Even saw him lift his head as if he knew I was back there, not that he seemed to care. All his focus was on the bitch at his cock, which is the same for me. I was just jacking off back there, jerking my ramrod as quick as that girls head was going up and down. It was awesome! And through it all Tommy was just whacking the bitchs ass like this!
And his hand comes down over her breast, giving it a solid and loud whack!
Olivia suddenly jerks at the blow, doubling forward, her throat instinctively tightening around the mans phallus, inadvertently seeming to pull at his shaft, drawing up his cum. In an effort to keep breathing, Olivia is forced to swallow the wash of cum that spills down her throat, it sliding down thick and sticky down her mouth. She swallows three thick mouth fulls of the stuff, her eyes watering as she takes in the flavor, gulping the fowl fluid down.
Mark finally pulls out, his member flipping upwards, smacking her in the eye as it does so, a string of semen stinging her eye as it hits her, making the membrane burn. But she does not scream, instead more focused on the simple act of breathing, coughing against the seat even as Mark continues to hold her head down against the cushion.
Youre pretty good at this, Ms. B! says Mark, his eyes seeming large and wild, but were nowhere near done yet!
Mark, please! she says, feeling thoroughly defiled at this point, having taken in the young mans seed in her mouth. She doesnt feel like she can take more. But her words fall on deaf ears as Mark grips her hair, pulling her off the seat and turning her around, bending her over the couch.
Mark pushes her down against the seat, lifting her skirt up and slaps her rear roughly, the sound ringing with a loud smack. She lets out a cry as she feels the sting of the blow trying to shield her rectum with her hands unaware until seconds later that Mark isnt interested in hitting her anymore as he grips her panties and wrenches them down around her ankles.
Mark, what are you doing?! she yells in fear and worry now, her throat still feeling raw from the face fucking shed just received she doesnt think her body is ready for a real fucking and her body feels completely dry.
Mark! she yells, trying to get his attention. Dont do this. You dont want to do this!
Sure I do, Ms. B, he says, three fingers running up her slit, pushing inside, making her cry out.
He leans forward against her, hit hot breath against her face.
You sure scream pretty, Ms. B, he says. Not as good as the girl did. There were some lungs on that one, I tell you. Guess she wasnt used to her boyfriend pounding into her like he did. I know I wouldnt be, looking at how he threw her on the bed and started fucking her like some starved dog wearing at a bone. Im gonna guess he was pounding that sweet little puckered asshole of hers, but dont worry, I wont be quite that exact in this retelling, he says against her ear.
Wait. Mark...
She has barely whispered those words when she feels the mans member brush against her sex before it begins to push inside, her vaginal lips stretching to accommodate its girth as she cries out, wincing as it pushes inside inch by inch.
Dont worry, Ms. B, he hears Mark say, this is where the fun starts!
Olivia grits her teeth, her vision blurry as her body adjust to the size of what is inside her, her breathing coming out slow and heavy, sweat running down her brow as she grips the dirty stained cushion before her, waiting for what is to come.
She feels as Mark begins to slide out of her sex, pulling out until only the head still remain inside her before he slams it inside in a single thrust, making her cry out as her eyes bulge, back arching.
Thats just foreplay, Ms. B. Were going to start for real now...
P-please, Mark, she whimpers. Dont! I... ack!
She cries out, eyes bulging as Mark slams his member inside her womb again, pulling out part way only to thrust inside once more. Each time pulling out less and less as he pistons her vaginal folds, hitting her with brutal force as his hips slap wetly against hers.
His fingers find their way around her neck as he pulls Olivia back towards him, pressing her body against his own even as he continues to thrust against her.
Mmm.... Ms. B, he ways, rubbing rough course chin hair against her face, I cant believe just how tight you are! Doesnt your old man give you a good shagging?
Mark... geh... st..gah... stop! she says between gasp as the man continues to piston inside her. He slows as he hears her words, pushing away from her.
Now why you gotta go and say something like that, Ms. B? Just when Im starting to get into it and just trying to give you a good time? Just like that bitchy redhead Brenda did when I broke into her place.
Wh-what do you mean? she says.
Mark continues to beat against her, his hips working roughly against her own.
That fucker, Tommy, he says, he knew I was there the whole time! Whole... fucking .. Time!
He says each word, accentuating it with the thrust against her body.
Man just couldnt let it be! He had to be rubbing it in my face! He knew that I had a thing for Brenda so hed fuck her right in front of me each day, he says, the thrusting seeming to wear away at Olivias internal walls, seeming more violent as the young man continues with his story, explaining something sinister.
His fingers run long gouges across her hips as he continues to beat against her body, almost as if hes trying to push his cock up through her womb and out her mouth. She is gasping as he continues to beat against her, her stomach crushed against the seat cushion, but still, Mark continues, his story growing darker with the minute.
Fucker just had to rub it in my face every day! Make me feel it, make me pay with seeing that skank open her legs for him each and every day!
Those thrust beat into Olivias body and she can only whimper as the man continues against her.
So when that dumb fuck finished I went out back, waiting for him to come out for his smoke, and just like clockwork, not twenty minutes after fucking, hes outside, lighting a joint, shirtless with nothing on him but a pack of smokes and his pants. He didnt even see me coming! Just bam! Right upside his uppity head and then another! And another! Left him a goddamned mess just the way hed left me!
Even as he speaks, Olivia is recording the information in her mind, hearing how this man has confessed to killing the other. Tommy McCormmick, line back for the college varsity, found outside his home with his skull caved in like a rotten watermelon by an outside intruder, the weapon for killing never found. But he hadnt been the only victim. The killer had made his way over to Brendas as well.
Yeah, he says. Id made that fucker pay! But I wasnt done yet, Ms. B. Id been so high and just after seeing the fuck go at it with Brenda I needed to have my turn. And the dumb slut, shed heard me and rather than call the cops or do something smart like that, shed come to check on her stupid sex toy!
As you can guess, Ms. B, he says, she freaked out, eyes going big like saucers when she saw her boyfriend. Tried to scream, but I shut her up fast!
So you... gkkk... killed her? says Olivia, still feeling as the man thrust against her body, jerking her forward hard.
Nah, Ms. B, he says. That woulda been a real waste of ass if I never got to sample it first!
What he says makes her stomach roll inside itself, as he is admitting that he raped the woman before he killed her. DNA analysis had confirmed the presence of DNA not belonging to the victim outside and Mark is now admitting to it. She feels about ready to call the officers outside and wonders why they havent come in yet? Why are they letting this progress as it is? Mark still continues, running his mouth and damning himself further.
Nah, after I punched her in the face I got my cock out and started face fucking her. You see, it was really limp at that point, since Id already jacked off to her being fucked by Tommy so I needed her to get it hard again, and man, I cant believe how soft those fucking lips of hers were! So soft they made me real hard, real fast!
He continues to thrust against her and Olivia wishes hed hurry up and cum inside her already. Her pussy is clenching around his member, feeling raw and abused and still he continues jerking off to her.
Yeah, he says, seeming to slow down a bit much to Olivias relief. She got me hard fast with those soft lips so I took her into her room and took that sweet sweet pussy that Tommy ignored tonight. Wasnt very tight, but it was real good pounding into it, but as I was fucking her, I realized, I cant let her live. Shes going to tell the cops if I let her go. So...
She hears him slipping something off his pants.
Mark... wait! she says, before she feels the belt suddenly curled around her neck, looped around the buckle and tightened as Marks thrusting suddenly becomes faster. Yeah... just like this I keep fucking her! I feel her tightening that loose little hole of hers as I fuck her and its great! It makes me feel like a king! You know, Ms. B!
He jerks at the belt and Olivia can only claw at it, her tongue beginning to push out from her lips. Oh god, she thinks, this is how Brenda died and now shes going to die too...
I fucked her like this, he says, the belt tightening on her neck. Fucked her hard as the belt cut her air off and it felt great! He leans forward, licking Olivias face as he continues to thrust inside her, his jerking coming more rapidly. I fucked her hard, feeling her losing it just under me! It was great to feel her dying as I came off on her!
As the belt is pulled back, squeezing on her neck, Olivia feels herself about to pass out, her eyes beginning to roll in her head even as she hears the young man groan, his thick seed filling her womb as the belt gets increasingly tighter.
Doesnt it feel great, Ms. B? he says. Fucking like this! I know it does for me!
As she is about to pass out, the door shatters, officers in swat gear yelling with rifles aimed towards Mark. He releases her immediately, lowering himself to the ground as medical personal come to look her over and check her vitals to make sure her condition is stable.
She breathes raggedly, the belt falling away from her neck as she rubs her throat where it had become raw. She looks down at the young man as he is roughly cuffed, hands pulled behind his back, even as a line of cum runs down her legs.
Got you... fucker... she whispers, before her vision begins to fade. At least they have him. They have this scummy bastard and hell pay for what hes done. Then her mind completely blacks out, a smile on her lips.

Engaging public art
"[P]ublic art that truly engages and creates a real relationship with the public and creates a social common ground is rarer. Plensa's fountain does that and effectively blurs completely the line between art and public. This is urban planning in the service of both art and the city's populace." – Dawoud Bey
via Chicago Now
Photographer Dawoud Bey writes a perceptive and thoughtful article about Chicago's Millennium Park and implicitly – and respectfully – challenges the Burnham Pavilion projects by architects Zaha Hadid and Ben van Berkel's UNStudio to live up to the success of James Plesna's Crown Fountain. This is not just a question of numbers but how public art might create a public for itself, so to speak, without simply replicating its commonest preferences – or deigning to engage them. As Bey writes about the Crown Fountain:
"From bathing suit and Pamper clad small children splashing and laying in the shallow reflecting pool, to groups of teenagers lounging nonchalantly and parents sitting on the side or splashing with their children, Jaume Plensa's fountain is a fantastical high tech urban concoction. It appears to be an urban black granite clad beach plopped right smack in the middle of downtown."
One thing I particularly like about Bey's writing is the way he approaches the public art experience. It isn't just his pleasurable familiarity with a favorite venue – "As I so often do when the weather gets warm I took a stroll over to the Crown Fountain while I was downtown on other business." It is also his sense of the art as an activation, not merely a destination.
"The periodic spouting of water from the mouths of the subjects brings everyone rushing to the spout in a mass of soaking wet multifarious humanity, reminding us that there are indeed moments, even in "the most segregated large city in America," when we are more alike than different in our common citizenship."
Not surprisingly, the notion of art that "creates a real relationship with the public and creates a social common ground"; that "literally reflects the very public [it is] meant to engage, thereby allowing everyone to see themselves in it"; that reflects "that there are indeed moments . . . when we are more alike than different in our common citizenship" is equally applicable to Bey's own remarkable photographic work over the past 35 years.

A group of cobras is called: quiver
Cobra classification: elapid
Cobra class: Reptile
A cobra (pronunciation (helpinfo)) is a snake and usually a venomous member of the family Elapidae (elapids). The name is short for cobra de capello (or cobra di capello), which is Portuguese for snake with hood, or hood-snake. When disturbed, most of these snakes can rear up and spread their neck (or hood) in a characteristic threat display. However, not all snakes referred to as cobras are of the same genus, or even of the same family.
Cobra may refer to:

Of note:
- I am so tired now that I am home... My brain feels like cow dung--all flattened and smelly. I would say useless too, but cow dung makes good fertilizer, yes?
- I will have office hours. Granted, my "office" is a cubicle to be shared with two other poets tucked in the corner of the third floor of Lind Hall, but office hours nonetheless. I'll also have a syllabus that deserves to be called a syllabus (in high school, they're just a list of expectations, you see--and yes, Emily, I know that's not entirely true) and a little slot that is my mailbox on campus. As in, I belong. As in, I've got the secret handshake down.
- There is a married couple entering the MFA program: the husband is in fiction, the wife in non-fiction. A truth telling contest for them tomorrow!
- There are only four poets. There are only thirteen students total. There were hundreds that applied. Something must have gotten fumbled in the paperwork. How did I get here? They keep telling us how competitive the program is, and I remember how tough it was before, and I remember that stomach liquifying spring, but what I don't understand is how I got to be where I am.
- I need to write that review of Nin Andrews' Sleeping With Houdini before she becomes a visiting poet; if I wait, I think it would be a conflict of interest, and I've already written my notes. (And as you all know, writing notes is half the battle. OK, the only battle, really, is getting past that first paragraph.)
- My homework tonight is to comment on and grade three student essays. I must admit, I have to remind myself: office hours, office hours, office hours, in order to not forget that I am indeed an MFA student and not a high school teacher again.
- In three years, I'll be able to put in my bio: "MSK received her MFA from the University of Minnesota." (In a few weeks, when the paperwork has gone through, I'll also be able to say I got my M.Ed from there too.)

Brief by Jessica Lee:
Photographer-Van.Go photography (Jessica Lee Van Goeverden)
Theme- Enchanted
Date and time- 21st March, 8am
Venue- Mitchells park, Morningside
This phase, I have chosen the theme enchanted, A chance for the ladies to channel their inner beauty and live in a day of every girls fantasy.
The hair should be curly with lots of volume, or in a loose plat accompanied by a flower crown which is optional.
Dress code- All girls must wear a boob tube top and hot pants - you will be provided with the garment when on location.
I have gone with a very artistic approach for the makeup, Using a lot of colour over the entire eye and a nude lip. Girls must arrive with just their base colour on.
Make up will be done by: Make-Up the College (arrive with foundation on)
Make up will be done by: Make-Up the College (arrive with foundation on)
The ladies will pose in different lying patterns on a bed of flowers, with the material spread out in creative ways.

I'm currently on a plane, drinking Woodford Reserve because why wouldn't I, and I have a really horrible internet connection but it appears that twitter says Amir Coffey committed to the University of Minnesota and holy shit dude. Not since the Rodney/Royce double pick up year has the U gotten a guy like this. ESPN ranks him as the 33rd best recruit in the entire country for 2016 and 247 Sports composite puts him at #45. That's a big deal! Dude had offers from tons of blue chippers like Arizona, Michigan State, and Texas but bam, sorry losers we got him.
The writing was pretty much on the wall that he would be a Gopher after his official visit back on September 3. He tweeted pictures of him and his dad (Richard, duh) at Williams Arena, reports came out that he kept going back for unofficials to hang with the players, and he canceled an official visit to Texas. It was still terrifying of course since, Minnesota sports, and I am glad I was on a plane and unable to load up anything to see who he chose until well after the fact, but it happened and we got him.
Coffey is a 6-7 guard, yes a 6-7 guard, and everything about him sounds awesome. They say he can play all three perimeter positions. He's smart, a good ball-handler and passer, and can hit from the perimeter or get to the rim. He can defend already. I mean everything sounds good. His negatives are he needs to build up more strength, very common for a freshman, and he could be a more vocal leader. That's all they could come up with. ESPN calls him a special player with upside off the charts and even compared him to Jalen Rose. Just the fact that he'll be able to come in and start and can already shoot and play defense puts him ahead of most freshman. This is just awesome.
None of that is even the most important part though. With Jarvis Johnson, Michael Hurt, and now Coffey Pitino has started to close the borders. This is good, but I also must clarify. The reason closing the borders is good is not because you get all the Minnesota players and if you think that way I bet you love P.A. too. The reason closing the borders is good is because when you do have an instate awesome player his thought process STARTS with I'm going to be a Gopher. It's not going to result in landing every stud, but that as the default is a much better way to start than "hey where should I go?" Pitino is on a good run right now.
The other super awesome thing is that Coffey is besties with Eric Curry. Curry is a power forward from Arkansas who visited the same time Amir did. He's not ranked as highly as Amir, but he's the 106th ranked player by 247 composite and #22 power forward and that's still pretty damn awesome. I won't get into talking too much about his abilities and what not since he hasn't committed here and may not, but it's looking better than ever right now. You know Amir is on snapchat or periscope or whatever kids use recruiting him.
In short - hell yes.

1) I am so far behind with scrapbooking my family's memories sometimes I feel completely overwhelmed. I have 12 years (YEARS!) worth of photos, all neatly organized and labeled by date in photo boxes on shelves in my scrapbook room. Just looking at them freaks me out. I need to scrapbook them all but between raising my family, working full time and being a half way decent wife I've only gotten to about 15% of them. And let me tell you that other 85%? They mock me! Every. time. I look at them!
2) Sometimes I don't feel creative. Sometimes I don't want to do a sketch. Sometimes I don't want to choose paper, sticker, embellishments or anything. Sometimes I just want to crank out layouts as fast as I can and get through some of those 12 years of photos.
3) Here's the big dirty secret...sometimes I use kits. Not a kit club where you still have to be creative. But those predesigned Creating Keepsakes Hall Of Fame/KOTM kits. Where all you do is follow the instructions and glue pictures where they tell you too. I know! I can't believe I'm even admitting that. But you know what? Those pictures on those layouts created from the kits? They aren't in boxes anymore. They are in an album or in a frame where my family can enjoy them.
|Created from a CK Hall of Fame kit-those pictures are from 2002!
Whew. I feel better having shared that.
Of course, I still love creating my OWN layouts too.
|Supplies: Bazzill Cardstock, Jolee's sticker, AC rub-ons, Silhouette die-cut machine
Check back later this week when I'll share more of those...and I'll share my process for creating page kits for a crop night.

Ghajini is an odd movie for me; and I say that in the best way possible with the utmost respect and admiration for the artistry of this movie. The reason I called it odd as because of how it integrated almost every single genre known to man in one single movie. It's practically a psycho-thriller crime drama; however, also part of its subplot was a romantic comedy love story. It was a different experience for sure. During the subplot, I almost lost track of what I was watching. It felt like I was watching another film, far from the psycho-thriller revenge seeking film I was supposed to be seeing. That tells me two things. One: the movie is a perfect example of a genius film. Two: the director and cast were so diverse and versatile to produce such a challenging film.
The plot revolved around a man who suffered from a short term memory loss. He would lose all his memory after 15 minutes, and lived by taking photos and name-tagging everything he owned and did. He, however, had not forgotten the tragedy that struck two years prior: the violent murder of his girlfriend. He then only had one goal in life: avenge the death of his lover. I don't think this will be considered a spoiler since the movie made it pretty clear with in the first few minutes of the movie. I guess they just said it so the audience can focus on the story-telling, which I will tell you, was beautiful. It was graphic and detailed how the main character was going to get to his target. he doesn't remember a lot so he's made an intricate plan to find the killer and make him suffer.
This also led to the police having a sudden interest in him especially since an investigation was pointing to him. Few minutes later, the audience is introduced to the girlfriend Sanja Singhani (the main character played by Aamir Khan) lost. It started with how they met, the circumstances that led to their meeting, growing close and eventually falling in love. This was the lightest part of the film. It was truly comical since it was really unconventional. Their love story screams hilarity right from the start. It was really helpful that Asin was so damn compelling in her role as Kalpana. She was lovely and had the perfect timing for her lines, and boy were her lines good. This was the romantic comedy part of the film. It was so well-done it takes you full-on. As I said, I almost forgot I was watching a movie about a man out to kill the people who wronged him. These scenes had a totally different vibe with it.
Then it shifted to the present where a medical student found herself involved in the chaotic life of Singhania. She definitely was interested, but there was more to his life than a medical case. She was in for a surprise when she realized her life was actually in danger. In the midst of running and telling, it shifted back to the past to complete the story of Singhania and Kalpana. It showed what happened that changed Singania's life forever. Gone was the big shot business man. Gone was the smiling, generous man. Gone was all the fame and fortune as he lived in isolation. The turn of events was so drastic yet so endearing. It had the magic of a great flick and it was touching and moving as well as heartbreaking. It's the artistry and craftsmanship of the movie that made me really like it.
The movie had a very powerful feel to it. The story was complex, but the way they did it made total sense. It was organized in a way that the narrative would be understood and felt by the viewing public, but it also boasted its artistry. This movie is a real work of art and the director, was a brilliant artist. He was able to depict all these intertwining stories so wonderfully that it was effective. Effective and powerful. Those are the two words I'd use to describe the film. Emotional and grandiose would be other choices. It was a really grand film. I don't think they held back with anything. All of it was visually pleasing and appealing. It was a great viewing experience.
The writing and the directing was a perfect marriage. Sure they had a strong material at their hands; but the most impressive thing was what they chose to do with it. They definitely not wasted it. I was really impressed by how the story was flowing, how they were shaping the characters, and how the events are turning up. It was constantly changing which made the movie alive. I just was blown away by this movie. It was a really great film to see. I had a lot of fun watching 3 Idiots and I'm glad this gave me another form of fun in terms of a Bollywood experience. It was a fascinating film for sure.
Aamir Khan as the star of the movie was perfect. He had everything going for him. He was versatile and transformed himself in every scene. He was funny when he needed to be, and tough when the scene called for it. I guess there's a reason why two of the highest grossing Bollywood film had him as the star; he delivers, and he delivers well. He's one genuinely talented actors and probably one of the best in worldwide cinema. He has this effect of making people laugh, sympathize, or angry. He portrays a wide range of emotions and he's always right on cue when showing them. He's a truly remarkable actor and a gift the cinema.

Columbus Day controversy
Re: "Columbus Day should be celebrated," April 20 guest commentary
I would not have believed that anyone still believed the grade-school nonsense that educated Europeans of Columbus's time still thought the Earth was flat until I read David A. Sprecace's column ("Columbus should be celebrated," April 19). But then his entire column is so full of such ignorance that Sprecace appears to be a prime candidate for the "jay-walking" segment on the Tonight Show.
Given limited space, I will focus on the single worst aspect of Sprecace's diatribe: his contention that "Most importantly…Columbus discovered the American continental coast" and should be celebrated for that feat. Letting pass the fact that Columbus never reached the continent, therein lies the very reason not to "celebrate" Columbus: the arrogant, ethnocentric, racist notion that Columbus could "discover" a hemisphere already inhabited by tens of millions of people, people with cultures as rich and complex as any found in Europe, people who, as Columbus himself wrote, welcomed him with great hospitality–a welcome he reciprocated with mass slaughter, enslavement and torture.
Those of us who oppose the "celebration" of Columbus Day do not, as Sprecace suggests, "scapegoat" Columbus for the horrific legacy of 500 years of colonialism, genocide and ecological destruction that Sprecace acknowledges followed Columbus's voyages. Rather, we recognize that the notion that Columbus could "discover" and lay claim to an inhabited hemisphere, simply by virtue of being European, was used to rationalize and justify the genocide and dispossession of indigenous peoples that continues to this day–not only in the United States, but in this country's tragic military adventures in other parts of the world.
Other countries, most notably South Africa, have taken steps, in the form of "truth and reconciliation" commissions, to come to grips with the pain and suffering resulting from "discovery," and to dedicate themselves to creating a better future of mutual respect. It is long past time for the United States to do the same. We can start by ending the "celebration" of a holiday that perpetuates that legacy, and by ending a parade that brings shame to the city of Denver.

Hemotoxin - Between Forever... And The End [2013]
When Hemotoxin's 2012 demo, ''Divinity In Torture'' first reached my ears, it was hardly a huge appeal to me, nothing more of a technical showdown of various thrash and death metal influences crammed into one versatile package with the energy of youth exploding all over the demo. Enter 2013, though, you get the chance to be acquainted with the California death/thrashers' debut full-length, and what's truly intriguing is that by barely tweaking the main colors of previous formula, the band has managed to capture a far more diverse spectrum of riffs, a consistent assembly, thus raising the overall quality by heaps, where you'd imagine they would continue the same way. Hemotoxin have plunged right into complete tech-death/thrash territory here, and they've opened themselves a wider range of musical preferences by doing so, and they've no doubt started to harness sustenance from different sources in contrast to their previous ''Human'' era Death worship, embodying a brazen, even forlorn tinge into their technical rehash, even though the album is quite devoid of anchor.
This is still essentially a homage to ''Human'', that much is overly blatant when glimpse at their cover of ''Suicide Machine'', and you could still call this old school, spraying the listener with a bevy of churning, palm-muted tech-thrash fluctuations that should hold some appeal even to fans of purer, straightforward Bay-Area acts like Vio-lence, Metallica and Blind Illusion, but as much as ''Between Forever...'' strains to rekindle the underground love for Atheist, Death circa 1991-1993, early Pestilence or Dutch obscures Thanatos, they're inevitably malcontent with the overall technical proficiency those aforementioned bands have intact, so about a quarter of this disc belongs to a marginally more modern effulgence, say, Cynic or late Gorguts perhaps. They're not shy in hiding their obvious influences, the Chuck Shuldiner-like inflection, polished production, and frothing, gradually culminating riff-fests that just overtly display a mesh of ubiquitous tech-death chomps and raging death/thrash affairs. The songs are fairly variant, but each manifest through an equal measure of raw excitement and less frivolous dual guitar harmonies. Hemotoxin are truly busy with everything they do, and that's what I love about this album. The absolute best song here is ''Autophagy'', which was originally released in last year's ''Divinity In Torture'' demo; a hungry, immensely prehensile palette of convoluted riffing played an grindcore-speed, so angry and stocked with intricacy that I felt I was witnessing Sinister, Vendetta, Death, Vio-lence, early Pestilence and Atheist simultaneously.
''Between Forever...'' deserves much praise, and particularly because it had no gigantic flaw. Alright, I'll confide that despite the avidity I hold for these tech-y riffs they weren't deviating from their sources, and hell, I even heard similar riffing from recent acts like Skeletal Remains, but that aside, my biggest complaint was the production values. Even though it was solid, I couldn't quite hear the drums rolling and thundering under the excessively audible wail of the guitars, as if nearly the entire meat of the album was bestowed on the chugging ferocity of the guitars, and I would have preferred some spidery hooks rather than the polished font of the record: you see, the quality of the production is more fit for something worshiping, say, Cryptopsy or Necrophagist, and the riffs aren't mature enough to bear that sort of complexity, which means a rougher, crooked crack in the production would have been a better choice, even when Hemotoxin seldom dive into utopian territory with their simultaneously epitomizing guitar harmonies.
In general, though, the Californians' product is utterly convincing, vigorous and fierce, something I'd easily choose over some of the worse efforts of the aforementioned mavens. ''Between Forever...'' sustains mobility, has an extensive range of riffs that they interpret into their own multi-dimensional contours, and despite the relatively lengthy leap it took towards more technical borders, still remains fresh with primordial, bristling anger. It's quite palpable that they quartet are still playing it somewhat safe, and they'll do wonders if they could incorporate such primal competence as they exhibited here into an even busier ebullition of tech-death avidity. Easily recommended for fervent tech-death/thrashers of any sort - if you enjoy any of the labels above then you'll have no problem liking this.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - A man in Daytona Beach called police from a 7-Eleven convenience store, and when an officer arrived at the scene, Daylen Holloman, 20, would not explain why he called authorities, according to an arrest report.
The report states that Holloman was taken outside and the officer asked him several questions, including "What's going on?" "Who are you?" "Where are you from?" He replied, "I don't know" to all of the questions, except one.
When the officer asked Holloman, "What do you know?" he replied, "I know I'm a monkey." The officer then said Holloman removed his clothing to prove to the officer he was a monkey, and not human, since the officer stated that humans wear clothes.
The report states Holloman refused to put his clothes on, even though there were people in and outside of the store.
Holloman was arrested and charged with indecent exposure.
The officer said he believed Holloman was of sound mind, and when asked to please put on his boxers after being handcuffed, he was able to do so with perfect balance.

In mathematics, a fractal is a subset of a Euclidean space for which the Hausdorff dimension strictly exceeds the topological dimension. Fractals are encountered ubiquitously in nature due to their tendency to appear nearly the same at different levels, as is illustrated here in the successively small magnifications of the Mandelbrot set. Fractals exhibit similar patterns at increasingly small scales, also known as expanding symmetry or unfolding symmetry; If this replication is exactly the same at every scale, as in the Menger sponge, it is called affine self-similar.
One way that fractals are different from finite geometric figures is the way in which they scale. Doubling the edge lengths of a polygon multiplies its area by four, which is two (the ratio of the new to the old side length) raised to the power of two (the dimension of the space the polygon resides in). Likewise, if the radius of a sphere is doubled, its volume scales by eight, which is two (the ratio of the new to the old radius) to the power of three (the dimension that the sphere resides in). However, if a fractal's one-dimensional lengths are all doubled, the spatial content of the fractal scales by a power that is not necessarily an integer. This power is called the fractal dimension of the fractal, and it usually exceeds the fractal's topological dimension.
As mathematical equations, fractals are usually nowhere differentiable. An infinite fractal curve can be conceived of as winding through space differently from an ordinary line – although it is still 1-dimensional, its fractal dimension indicates that it also resembles a surface.
The mathematical roots of fractals have been traced throughout the years as a formal path of published works, starting in the 17th century with notions of recursion, then moving through increasingly rigorous mathematical treatment of the concept to the study of continuous but not differentiable functions in the 19th century by the seminal work of Bernard Bolzano, Bernhard Riemann, and Karl Weierstrass, and on to the coining of the word fractal in the 20th century with a subsequent burgeoning of interest in fractals and computer-based modelling in the 20th century. The term "fractal" was first used by mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975. Mandelbrot based it on the Latin frāctus, meaning "broken" or "fractured", and used it to extend the concept of theoretical fractional dimensions to geometric patterns in nature.
There is some disagreement among mathematicians about how the concept of a fractal should be formally defined. Mandelbrot himself summarized it as "beautiful, damn hard, increasingly useful. That's fractals." More formally, in 1982 Mandelbrot stated that "A fractal is by definition a set for which the Hausdorff–Besicovitch dimension strictly exceeds the topological dimension." Later, seeing this as too restrictive, he simplified and expanded the definition to: "A fractal is a shape made of parts similar to the whole in some way." Still later, Mandelbrot settled on this use of the language: "...to use fractal without a pedantic definition, to use fractal dimension as a generic term applicable to all the variants".
The consensus is that theoretical fractals are infinitely self-similar, iterated, and detailed mathematical constructs having fractal dimensions, of which many examples have been formulated and studied in great depth. Fractals are not limited to geometric patterns, but can also describe processes in time. Fractal patterns with various degrees of self-similarity have been rendered or studied in images, structures and sounds and found in nature, technology, art, architecture and law. Fractals are of particular relevance in the field of chaos theory, since the graphs of most chaotic processes are fractals.

Establishing Your Personal Brand in the Interview
We often hear the term "personal branding" bandied about in conducting a job search, but many people have a hard time envisioning it in concrete terms. What I would like to share with you is a real life example you might relate to.
Last Wednesday evening I attended a candidate's forum where seven candidates seeking to win the primary election on the Democratic ticket to succeed NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg were invited to discuss the issues. Being an executive resume writer and job search advisor I viewed this forum as a job interview, because essentially that is what it was and I learned a few lessons that night.
Two candidates have no chance of winning so we'll leave them out of the discussion, however the other five candidates are all viable in the race; a former NYC Congressman, the former city Comptroller and head of the Board of Education who was also his party's mayoral nominee who lost to Mayor Bloomberg in 2009, the current Speaker of the City Council, the current Comptroller, and the current Public Advocate. To be honest all five are NYC Democrats who for the most part agreed in principal on the majority of the questions, except for one, with each having a somewhat different political spin on the various issues.
This said all five needed to make us believe he or she was different from one another and each had 120 minutes to try and establish a unique 'Personal Brand' that made him or her stand out in our minds rather than blend into the crowd.
Only one of the five candidates succeeded in established a personal brand and stood out in the crowd, and this is the one candidate for the job of mayor most people I spoke with afterwards said they would vote for. Here is how he did it.
Three male candidates each had on a dark suit, crisp white shirt and power tie. The lone woman wore a feminine version of this attire. These four presented the same exact image. The fifth candidate wore a nice blue shirt and tie and no jacket making people take notice of his uniqueness by markedly differentiating himself from his four adversaries.
Then came the Q&A session; when asked a question the four candidates in suits all answered their questions while they sat in their chair however the candidate in the shirt and tie stood up and moved forward towards the audience when he was called upon to respond. Again we saw four clones and one person who was different and stood out. This tactic also made us pay more attention to what he was saying and how it differed from the other four. Whereas when the other four answered the same questions our attention was focused on how similar they were to the other three.
Finally, there was one question where there was a genuine difference of opinion. A very telling question was asked about how they each felt about the current mayor not negotiating union contracts and leaving this up to the next mayor. The four suited candidates were united in their belief the mayor was wrong and should have negotiated the deals before the new mayor comes into office. The shirt and tie candidate said he was glad the mayor did nothing and left the responsibility up to the next mayor. He said the buck stops here, the rest said it is best to pass the buck. This is an important lesson to job seekers; companies want people who desire rather than shirk new responsibilities.
I do not know which candidate will eventually win. But I can tell you which candidate stood out the most in my mind and in the opinion of most attendees I talked to, and who was the only candidate to make people reconsider the opinion they had of all of the candidates before the event started.
As you can see this candidate established a "Personal Brand" and it worked.
This is the same with each job seeker. You need to find a way, starting with your resume and then carrying over into the interview stage, of standing out in a crowd. If you do this, your chances of being offered the job you desire is going to be much higher than before.

I have a question about the recipe "Mashed Potatoes with Caramelized Onions and Goat Cheese" from Sonali. Is there anyway to make these ahead of time and then reheat them?
You can definitely make mashed potatoes ahead of time and keep them warm over a simmering pot of water. If you're talking a day or so then I would reheat them the same way.
Yes, I've done it, actually! I reheated the potatoes in a sauce pan on the stovetop, stirring frequently and adding milk and butter to keep them from being too dry. I rewarmed the caramelized onions separately in a saute pan with a little butter. It worked out just fine!
