text: For: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC Publisher: Activision www.blurgame.com Rating: 4.5/5 Back in the day, and I mean way deep in the past, games used to come in cartridge format, holding precious few MBs of amusement. During this golden-cartridge-era, few brands competed for dominance but one would reign supreme, Nintendo. Starting from 8-bit and going up to 16, what the iPhone is to cellular technology today pales in comparison to what the SNES had on gaming during the '90s. From Mode 7 to its four regular plus two shoulder buttons, the SNES had all the dope games. But of all the iconic titles to come from the console, there was one game that I obsessed over: Super Mario Kart. For starters, it involved driving. Yes, you were a bobbleheaded character from the Super Mario franchise, but it was four-wheeled kart nonetheless. Second, it had a robust multiplayer mode back before the Internet forced you to play in virtual rooms with 12-year-old boys who have yet to learn about the Civil Rights movement, let alone the term "PC". Punk lil' bastards -- but I digress. Lastly, what Super Mario Kart had going for it was its cool power ups -- heat seeking turtle shell missiles, enemy-shrinking lightning attacks, mushrooms disguised as nitrous, and so on. The formula worked well. So well in fact, Nintendo released a version (or two) for every goddamn console they have ever produced. I think I own six iterations of the game. But what was once fun and cute got campy and tired with age—one can only play as Princess for so long. The problem was there was no other option. Car games on the whole grew more realistic, trading physics for fun. That is no longer the case. From screenshots, Blur might look like Activision's take on a racing game. It has the obligatory licensed sports cars (50) and exotic locations from throughout the world, but that's where it ends. Sure, it has the four-player splitscreen and 20-player online modes, and its graphics are as crisp as a drycleaned shirt, but what it has that separates it from the pack are the power-ups. From speed boosts, mines, homing missiles, bullet-like projectiles, shields, lightning, to a localized shock attack, power-ups act as defensive and offensive measures to work your opponents while you race around the track. While the physics engine on Blur won't win any realism awards, that's not why you'd buy this game. Go cop Forza or wait for GT5. But if you want something to do with your buddies before you go out and hit the town, Blur is perfect. It's really fun, really easy to get into, and a throwback (in the best possible way) to Super Mario Kart--only with cool cars.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Residents in Lincoln and a group of Boy Scouts have collected 47,000 pounds of outdated phone directories for recycling.
The Cornhusker Council Boy Scouts collected telephone directories door-to-door in Lincoln neighborhoods. Directories were also dropped off at parks and recreation centers throughout Lincoln.
The collections were part of the "Think Yellow, Go Green" recycling campaign. It was run by The Berry Company, which prints Windstream Yellow Pages, along with the city of Lincoln, Southeast Community College and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
More than 323,000 pounds of outdated directories have been collected over the last five years.

922 Mont-Royal Est
Montreal, Quebec
Metro: Mont-Royal
Bus: STM 11, 97
Visit: November 16, 2010
I can't start to explain how this back-up plan worked for me. This was not the intended location this week, but at least I had it in my mind. More on that in the future.
This restaurant was busy the entire time I was there. The staff seemed to know a lot of people coming in and out. The decor was rather interesting.
Double Burger de Leon
This burger contains two 4 ounce patties, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles, cheddar, and bacon. I seem to be having a streak of burgers too huge to hold. This particular one was saved by the pick that I placed back in. A sliding burger was not in my plans, so the pick was necessary. The taste was alright, but the bun caused a problem during consumption. The bun was somewhat lathered in sauce which made napkin use vital. This was also the first time I've encountered a burger with an intermediary bun, which shows the uniqueness of the experience.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the 3-Day Kruger Park Wildlife Safari. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.

Worst part of the tour was the 5 hour car ride from Johannesburg. After arriving, the arrangements were on time for everything and very acceptable. The accommodations were very good and the guides very professional.
The hotel was excellent with few details overlooked. Although it was a lovely hotel they could use a good exterminator for the roach problem. I saw them in the bedroom, bathroom, and other areas. They really do make a superior effort. On the return trip, we did get stopped for a traffic check. I was a bit shaky when the police threatened to impound the vehicle because there was no tourist passenger insurance on the vehicle. Begging from the front office on the phone helped!
Satish B
Kruger is a beautiful place to visit and I would recommend it to anyone. However, based on my recent experiences with the tour agency/s I would not recommend this tour to anyone. If you want to go to Kruger, you are better off looking for options like self driving and then taking an open jeep safari, or look for another travel company. We had a horrible driver/guide who practically refused to provide us with the promised closed safari in an attempt to 'hard sell' the open jeep safari. This was a classic case of 'bait and switch'. Once we were at the park the first day, she refused to look for animals on the pretext that she cannot drive and look for game at the same time and that she was afraid to take the vehicle to the gravel roads! After hearing her outburst, I informed her that we just had a closed vehicle trip in Pilanesberg and that our driver/guide for that trip drove slowly and spotted all the animals for us and took his vehicle to the gravel roads as well. To this she responded with a very rude remark. She said and I quote, " OK, I will find the animals if you do the driving. I cannot do both". I was very insulted and taken aback, because isn't the job of an 'expert game ranger' to drive and help customers spot animals? If I had to drive and my husband were to spot the animals why did we pay to take the help of a so called expert?
Since she was obviously not going to help us spot any animals, we tried to do that on our own. However, it became very difficult since she was driving very fast. My husband requested her to slow down so that we could better spot the animals. To this she responded again in a very rude tone," I am following the speed limit and I am allowed to go at 50kmph".
The point is that in the tour brochure the open safari is given as an option, but if the closed safari driver refuses to provide us with the services as promised, then it is really not an option, is it? We feel thoroughly cheated.

- Index up this week by 3.55% -- up for 3 months in a row
- Index closed Friday above its 20, 50 and 100 day moving average
- Hit new highs in 12 of the last 20 trading sessions and was 5 for 5 last week
- 7.21% price appreciation for this month
- 100% Barchart technical buy -- 13 of 13 technical buy signals
Barchart Market Momentum -- Percentage of stocks closing above their daily moving averages for various time frames -- Above 50% is always better
- 20 DMA -- 77.90% closed above -- 68.30% last week -- 64.93% last month
- 50 DMA -- 85.01% closed above -- 83.15% last week -- 78.65% last month

Investment Strategy -- Since all 3 yard sticks are positive I'll continue to stay in the market. I'll cull stocks that don't close above their 50 DMA and replace them.
Wall Street Survivor results -- The columnists who contribute to Top Stocks have a little friendly competition going over on Wall Street Survivor . I'm climbing out of the hole I was in and month to day I'm in first place with a 9.3% return just ahead of John Reese with a 5.15% return and we're both ahead of the S&P turning in a 4.09% return. We still have a full week to go this month so anything can happen.

It probably wouldn't shock anyone if I were to say we Utahns love our chain and fast-food restaurants. It only takes the opening of a famous burger chain to produce scenes of automotive bedlam. One glimpse of the frenzied maze of queueing cars and you would think the zombie apocalypse was finally upon us, not the 287th opening of an identikit eatery where a "secret" menu is anything but.
Of course, none of this is pious preaching on my part; I'm as subject to the pressures of time, circumstance and hunger as the next person. When all three converge, you'll find me in a state of zombification probably moaning "buurgggerrs" — because, let's face it, when it comes to fast casual dining, selections aren't dramatically diverse.
Two recently opened restaurants in the Salt Lake Valley, however, seek to offer the time- and money-pressed diner something more exotic. If you're in their vicinity, you might want to check them out.
Tushar Brazilian Express
Tushar Brazilian Express in South Jordan aims to offer a unique twist on the more common Brazilian churrasco restaurant you may have already experienced around Salt Lake City. Gone are the passadores — meat waiters wielding hefty skewers of grilled meat — as too are the customarily large prices and multihour dining commitment. Tushar offers familiar flavors, but in a wholly different and rapidly prepared package.
Entering the space, diners are greeted by billboards detailing Tushar's menu and a concept most diners will have experienced: Line up, choose your dish, order at the counter, take a seat and your food arrives a few minutes later.
The menu offers a smattering of appetizers, soups, salads and skewer meals — the latter of which are the killer deal here: a skewer of your choosing plus three side dishes. Choose from grilled chicken ($8.95), grilled pork loin ($8.95), grilled pineapple ($8.95) and beef ($9.95). If you're feeling extra hungry, additional skewers are available à la carte, priced $2.95-$3.45.
For your trio of accompanying sides, choose from a selection of white rice, brown rice, black beans, mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, fried bananas, french fries and green mixed salad. A word to the wise, it's probably sensible to avoid the carb-trifecta of rice, mashed spuds and fries — unless of course you've brought assistance to roll you out the door. These are filling plates.
While every skewer I sampled was appetizing and the polar opposite of the heat-lamp-exhausted dishes you've no doubt wearily ordered, eaten and regretted, the pork in particular was a succulent success. Also, anyone who's tossed a few slices of pineapple on the summer grill will know the sweet genius of this preparation. Don't be afraid of supersizing your platter this way; it certainly makes for a healthier and tastier alternative to the usual fast-food upgrades.
Siam Noodle Bar
As you might infer, Siam Noodle Bar's menu focuses on noodles. What you might not expect is the location, housed on the ground floor of Intermountain Medical Center in Murray. Quick tip: The Intermountain hospital campus is large; Siam Noodle Bar lies at the southwest end of building No. 1.
The outlet is the work of Anny Sooksri, owner and operator of nearby Tea Rose Diner and Chabaar, who was directly invited to build out the business by the hospital. Since its opening in February, I've no doubt Intermountain staffers and visitors have thanked their lucky stars for this bold addition to the site.
Siam Noodle Bar's menu is modeled on street vendor food from Thailand, and everything is created speedily to order from scratch. There are options for vegetarians, vegans and those looking to avoid gluten, too. The core of the menu is a build-it-yourself approach: Choose a meat or tofu, a type of noodle (egg noodle, chow fun, glass noodle, vermicelli, rice noodle, pasta, ramen) and a vegetable. Your rendition is completed with a drinkably delicious yet subtle broth and a flutter of garnishes such as bean sprouts, celery and cilantro.
Configurations start at $6.50 and you can bolt on an extra helping of meat for $2.50 or shrimp for a buck more. For the indecisive — you know who you are — Siam Noodle Bar also offers a number of preset noodle bowls. Point, pay and slurp within minutes.
The restaurant's concept encourages diners to grab and go. While you're free to linger at one of the two or three tables, dotted with sriracha, hoisin and fish sauce, dishes come served in Styrofoam containers as standard. That said, if you do want to loiter, just ask and your meal can be served in a bowl better suited to dining in.
The noodle bar is adjacent to a certain international sandwich joint with its own claims to fresh and healthy cuisine. For me, Siam Noodle Bar offers an immediately more tempting and unique option for lunch and early dinner, and itself is undeniably fresh and healthy.

Born on the Seven Mile Miracle and bred by its crew of elite surfers, Kalani has proven he is a force to be reckoned with by finishing 4th in the 2005 Pipe Masters and by coolly pulling into some of the nastiest beasts to roll through Pipe last winter. On November 16th 2007, he paddled out at maxing Second Reef on a three-inch thick 9'6" rhino chaser, shaped by uncle Owl. Story goes, he was supposed to wait for the swell of the year to paddle out on it. He sat outside long enough to get the set of the swell, angles into the beast, and holds his line through the meanest section in the business, flying out with gobs of spit. The wave was talked about for weeks as one of the heaviest in years.

Hospital, heart hospital nationally ranked
A survey in the upcoming issue of Child magazine solidifies the place Children's holds among the country's top pediatric healthcare institutions, especially in the area of heart care.
The Child magazine survey ranks the hospital as one of the top 25 providers nationally for overall pediatrics, and the Children's cardiac service line is listed among the top 10. Only one other hospital in the state - Texas Children's Hospital in Houston - earned top-25 overall status.
"We are honored to be recognized by Child magazine as one of the leaders in our industry," said Christopher J. Durovich, president and chief executive officer of Children's. "All of our employees have played a significant role in reaching this status by virtue of their daily commitment to the children that we serve. We are extremely proud of our cardiac team for its Top 10 ranking and I know that each of us will use this ranking as motivation to continue striving toward this achievement in many more lines of service. Together we can start the year with a renewed commitment to expanding our base of knowledge, to implementing better systems and processes and to providing better customer service - all of which indicate preeminent care for the children of our region."
The results of the survey are from an exhaustive, nine-month investigation of 116 hospitals affiliated with the National Association of Children's Hospitals and Related Institutions. The survey focused quantitatively on vital medical information (survival rates, the number of complex procedures and intricate surgeries conducted, volume of research studies, efforts to reduce medical errors and training for doctors and nurses) as well as child-friendliness, family support and community involvement.
The survey results will be published in the magazine's February 2007 issue, which will appear on newsstands Tuesday, Jan. 9.

CHICAGO — Kevin Sorensen has been a custodian at Oak Park and River Forest High School for 20 years, but it is his job as a stuntman that draws attention, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Sorensen, an easygoing father of two, tends to downplay his second career as a stuntman, including his role in "The Dark Knight," the latest installment of the Batman movie series, the story stated.
In response to people calling him a movie star, Sorensen said: "No, I just do stunt work. It''s just another job that somebody''s going to do, and that I just happen to love doing. When you''re a kid, you play cops and robbers, and with this, you get to continue doing that. You shoot guns and crash cars and blow things up."
Sorensen has worked on two dozen films, including "Groundhog Day," "The Lake House," "Batman Begins" and "My Best Friend''s Wedding," the story noted.
Sorensen is one of 52 "The Dark Knight" performers who were recently honored as the best movie stunt ensemble by the Screen Actors Guild, the story added.

Surrender control, and fall away…
Surrender control, and fall away…
As we stood transfixed in blank devotion,
Our eyes fell still, cast upon a lifeless ocean,
Peer through grains of sand, at swirls of wonder,
And accept that we've(God) smote the world asunder.
Hand in hand we dive deep, and transcend,
To the bottom, where we lay, avoiding the end,
As we embrace, particles of light observe,
And we float away from the night, completely submerged.
First line of poem credited to post rock instrumentalists Red Sparowes.

Churchgoers' cars struck by bullets in Chester
At least five vehicles were struck with bullets outside a Chester church Sunday afternoon.
The gunfire happened about 4 p.m. at Grace Church of God in Christ, at 22nd Street and Edgemont Avenue, which was being rented for a service by Tabernacle Transformation, 6ABC Action News reports.
It was the first time Tabernacle Transformation rented the church building for its service.
No one was injured in the hail of bullets, which blasted out cars' windows and flattened tires.
The church's pastor, Jose Ortiz, told Action News the cars may not have been the intended target, as a gunman may have been aiming at a man running through the church parking lot and using the vehicles for cover. He also indicated Tabernacle Transformation intends to hold to its plan to host a service there again next Sunday.

Shish Tavouk with Salad Pita and Garlic SauceThis recipe was generously offered by Chef/Owner Georges Elou of Schlomo Gourmet Deli in Palm Harbor, Florida. Of course, a bit of "tasting" with Chef Georges was needed to be able to develop the recipe in smaller amounts ... a nice perk! Be sure to seek him out when on the Gulf Coast!
IngredientsFor Marinade:1 quart heavy cream1/3 cup fresh lemon juice1/3 cup light oil6 garlic cloves, minced1 large white onion, cut into chunks1 tablespoon dried oregano1 teaspoon ground allspice1 tablespoon dried mint1 teaspoon ground cinnamon1 tablespoon dried Italian herbs1 teaspoon cayenne pepper1 tablespoon Kosher salt
For Shish Taowk:
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 and 1/2 inch cubes1 large green pepper, deveined and seeded, cut into ringsFor Toum Garlic Sauce:6-8 cloves fresh garlic1 teaspoon salt2 eggs2 cups light oil2 lemons, juiced
InstructionsPlace all marinade ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until mixture is blended. Next, place chicken pieces and green pepper rings in a large ziplock bag and pour marinade over all. Refrigerate from 8 to 24 hours, occasionally turning bag to marinate the chicken evenly. For garlic sauce, place garlic and salt in a blender or food-processor and blend to a smooth puree. Add eggs and blend again until smooth. Very slowly pour in oil in a steady stream till sauce is the consistency and color of mayonnaise. Add lemon juice and blend until smooth. Taste and add more lemon if necessary. Heat grill to medium hot. Remove chicken from marinade and discard liquid. Allow chicken to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Grill chicken to a light and crunchy finish. Serve Shish Tavouk with fresh salad, tomatoes, and cucumber. Serve Toum on the side with pita.

St. Louis Blues
I love what the St. Louis Blues are doing. This is a team that has never won a Stanley, has struggled with ownership and has sacrificed draft choices like no other team in the game's history.
And right now, as we speak, the St. Louis Blues might be in the best shape in franchise history. Since John Davidson moved to St. Louis from New York the Blues have made a large number of small but extremely intelligent moves. Good bets, let's call them.
The Blues off-season headlines all have the arrows pointing in the right direction: Blues sign top pick Erik Johnson, Blues sign Keith Tkachuk, Blues sign Paul Kariya, Blues acquire Hannu Toivonen.
That last transaction came today, with the Blues getting a very good young goalie for a prospect Carl Soderberg. Soderberg scored at about a point-per-game in the SEL and is certainly a legit prospect, but Toivonen is an outstanding young goalie who at 23 has already played parts of two seasons in the NHL. It's a very good bet.
The Blues went to the finals several times when I was a kid (Clarence Campbell insisted the expansion division have a representative in the finals each season 68-70 and the Blues were crushed all three times despite goaltending from Glenn Hall and Jacques Plante, in photo) and have been a fun team to watch over the years. They've never really had a team that was built for the long term, but this team is building for a nice run.
The Blues have a plan and are committed to sticking to it.

My parents picked up this machine and her cabinet off the curb in the mid '70s. I've used her as a display piece/table and have never sewn on her. But she's near and dear to my heart. I don't think she was expensive but she's seen some long hours creating someone's masterpieces.
The attachments were all in the white cloth bag, which might be more valuable than the sewing machine.

How To Freeze Cinnamon Rolls and Bake Them Later
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
It's unfair. Fresh, hot, from-scratch cinnamon buns are a beloved breakfast treat, especially on holidays like Christmas morning. Who doesn't want to wake up to the smell of cinnamon and caramelizing sugar, or stumble down to the kitchen to find fresh-from-the-oven, slathered-in-icing cinnamon buns, just waiting for you to dive in? But in order for those fresh, hot, from-scratch buns to make it out of the oven any time before noon, someone has to rise well before dawn in order to get the whole process rolling. Not very fun or fair for the breakfast cook!
Until now. Here is our method for how to par-bake and freeze your homemade buns in advance, allowing you to bake them off and ice them just in record time for a lovely breakfast.
How To Freeze Cinnamon Rolls and Bake Them Later
What You Need
1 batch cinnamon rolls, like our Sticky Spicy Cinnamon Rolls
Cooling rack
Plastic wrap, plastic bag, or aluminum foil
- Prepare your cinnamon rolls as usual: Follow your cinnamon roll recipe all the way through to the baking step.
- Par-bake the cinnamon rolls: Instead of baking the cinnamon rolls for the entire time, just bake them partway (par-baking) for 10 to 15 minutes. The rolls should be raised and set, but not totally browned. A few touches of brown here and there are fine. Check your rolls after 10 minutes — the rolls pictured here were ready after 10 minutes but ovens vary.
- Cool completely: Remove from the oven and let the rolls cool completely in the pan.
- Wrap and freeze: Wrap the pan in two layers of plastic wrap or place them into a large plastic bag and seal. Freeze for 8 hours or up to 6 weeks.
- Thaw in the refrigerator: The night before you want to serve the rolls, take them out of the freezer and place them, still wrapped, in the refrigerator. They will thaw overnight.
- Bake the rolls: The next morning, get up and preheat your oven to 350°F. Unwrap the cinnamon rolls and bake them until they are completely done and a light golden brown all over, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Frost and serve the rolls: If you are frosting your rolls, prepare the frosting according to your recipe instructions. Frost and proudly serve your fresh, hot, homemade cinnamon rolls to your loved ones, who will likely be circling the kitchen in anticipation at this point!
Recipe Notes
The easiest pan to use here is one of those disposable aluminum foil pans. That way you won't tie up your 9" pan while it's holding the cinnamon buns in the freezer.
Alternatively, you can freeze them in the pan, then remove the rolls from the pan, re-bag them, and place them back in the freezer. I find all that a little fussy and for this recipe — the filling is rather oozy, so I usually like to keep them in the pan they were baked in.
- It's very important that you wrap the rolls very well to avoid exposure to freezer burn. If you don't have plastic wrap or plastic bags, use a double layer of aluminum foil.
The rolls won't last in the freezer forever. Use with in 5 to 6 weeks.

Thank you!! I've been eyeing that cinnamon bun recipe since it was posted a week or two ago, and it mentioned the make-and-freeze-in-advance strategy, but it's really really helpful to have the steps broken down like this. :-)
I wonder if you could line a pan with heavy-duty foil, par-bake, and then lift out the foil with rolls intact to be able to freeze? Then it would fit right back in the pan to be baked.
Still wasting the foil but not as much as a disposable pan, and foil is something I usually have on hand rather than purchasing something extra.
Excellent suggestion, @barlowgirl!
I'd be interested in trying this out. I usually do Alton Brown's overnight cinnamon rolls, which are delicious. But freezing them is a great idea!
I used Heidi Swanson's cinnamon roll recipe for the last few years and I usually freeze them after slicing them and before the second rise. I freeze them the same way I would cookie dough: on a baking sheet and then after an hour toss the mostly frozen rolls/slices into a ziplock bag and back into the freezer. The night before I want to bake them I lay them out in a buttered baking dish under a dish cloth and let them rise overnight at room temperature (preferably a warm room). Beautiful rolls in the morning!
Seems odd to object to all the chemicals in pre-packaged cinnamon roll tubes then suggest using disposable aluminum pans as more convenient.
I make a slightly adapted version of the Pioneer Woman cinnamon rolls (generally not a fan of her or her site, but the rolls are AMAZING), and I have had the best luck with baking the rolls completely, frosting them, cooling, and then freezing. When I'm ready to reheat, I do it in a 250 degree oven for about 20 mins. or so, directly from frozen. They taste just like fresh and it couldn't be easier. Since the recipe makes 7-8 trays, it also makes it easy to gift them to friends, since all they have to do is warm them. I have also tried freezing before baking, but the rolls turned out a little tough.
Thanks. This is really helpful.
I agree with hlg22--PWs cinnamon rolls are the best ones I've tried. I too freeze them after baking and frosting. I honestly find they're just as good as fresh, and that way I don't have to fiddle with frosting in the morning. I gave these out as xmas gifts a couple years ago and they were a HUGE hit.
Does this method work for yeasted rolls and chemically leavened rolls, or is it more suited to one or the other?

So were do i start? I was left at the back of the comprehensive class room in the 80's as i could not read or write too well. I could pick up any musical instrument and play it with in weeks, i could paint, draw with ease and was known as the class "funny man" so to speak (type? you see i struggle with even grammar) . I never really got the hang of it and as some of you may know that in the 80's if you could not do it then you were not on the teachers list of possible brags. I have always had fascination with Stephen Fry as he i always wonder that if i could have written well and could read then he may be what i might have become or could have been. Every time i see him on TV i learn some thing, every time i hear him talk i learn something and once having served in the army i can say that he got his role in Blackadder goes Fourth spot on!. I have not even opened a book since i was 23 (i turned 40 last year) give or take one, or one and on looking around the airport last week for something to keep me company i found his Chronicles. It came with me across Munich, through the Alps, down the valleys of Bavaria, along the Danube river and sat with me in the squares of Salzburg. I would laugh out loud to complete strangers, shreek with amazement on buses and reflect at my own bouts of depression, my smoking addiction and my troubled youth along with a man i greatly admire. I had cancer some years ago aged 30 and ever since i have felt even closer to Stephen , it brought back deep depression and close to suicide. Thanks to a treatment of testosterone i got rid of the darkness and feel better again (this is a new treatment which is making waves that it can be linked to drops and peeks in male hormones) http://www.androids.org.uk by the way . GOING off topic here so i will finish with Thank you for this book it has taught me more in the first 300 pages than the school ever did.I will treasure it for ever.

Michele Abeles at Sadie Coles HQ, London
September 30~2014
This autumn, Sadie Coles HQ presents new works by Michele Abeles in her first exhibition with the gallery. The show will extend across both spaces in Mayfair, 69 South Audley Street and 9 Balfour Mews. Abeles's use of photography maintains an anonymous approach. Sight levers open gaps of enigma in a period of airtight slotting and seamless surface. Does X=X? Her characteristic treatment of the body alternates between deploying it as a readymade and peering at it as a grey form knowable only as it is abstracted, dispersed, projected onto, exposed, or dressed up. If every iteration is only provisional, like the shifting angle of light or lens or the passing of an indifferent gaze, it is no less stringent and instrumental.
Camille Henrot "The Pale Fox" at Bétonsalon, Paris
September 30~2014
Bétonsalon – Center for art and research is pleased to announce the first large-scale solo exhibition by French, New York-based artist, Camille Henrot in Paris. "The Pale Fox" is an immersive environment building on Henrot's previous project Grosse Fatigue (2013) – a film awarded the Silver Lion at the 55th Venice Biennial. While Grosse Fatigue attempted to tell the story of the universe in thirteen minutes, "The Pale Fox" is a meditation on our shared desire to understand the world intimately through the objects that surround us. As Camille Henrot explains: "The main focus of 'The Pale Fox' is obsessive curiosity, the irrepressible desire to affect things, to achieve goals, to perform actions, and the inevitable consequences."
Rob Pruitt "Multiple Personalities" at Gavin Brown's enterprise, New York

The MEF, Museo Ettore Fico, as opening exhibition of the new space dedicated to the master, is pleased to present a retrospective from national collections: more than two hundred works, including oil and tempera paintings, drawings, watercolours and engravings, never displayed before, made in the period from early 1930s to 2004, the year of his passing.
"That Obscure Object of Desire" at Luxembourg & Dayan, New York
September 27~2014
New York, NY… In Luis Buñuel's 1977 film That Obscure Object of Desire, the hero lusts after a tantalizing and elusive woman. His obsession spirals out of control, clouding his judgment and ultimately leading him to a state of utter submissiveness. Borrowing the title of Buñel's film, Luxembourg & Dayan is pleased to present an exhibition that explores the dark side of desire, highlighting the often-suppressed connection between an artwork and a fetishized object. The process of object making is here explored as an obsessive endeavor akin in its intensity to erotic infatuation. Each of the artists represented in That Obscure Object of Desire is continuously drawn to forms, processes, and materials with bodily connotations that oscillate between the sexual and the abject, reworked in countless variations. "That Obscure Object of Desire" has been organized by Luxembourg & Dayan director Stephanie Adamowicz and Tamar Margalit.
Valentina Liernur "ahh…ah…" at Campoli Presti, London
September 27~2014

Manuela Ribaderneira "Varillas de la esperanza" and Yuri Firmeza "Projeto Ruìnas" at Casa Triângulo, São Paulo
September 26~2014
Manuela Ribaderneira "Varillas de la esperanza"
In Varillas de la Esperanza, Manuela Ribaderneira uses a typical element of Latin American urban landscape: the unfinished or abandoned construction columns. In Ecuador, her country of origin, these cement and steel columns that protrude from many rooftops have the witty and poetic name of Varillas de la Esperanza (The Rods of Hope). Often people build the first floor of their houses and add the construction columns for that desired second floor in the hope that one day they will have enough money to built it. The money rarely arrives, and The Rods of Hope remain standing, truncated and hopeful sticking out from the roof slowly becoming posts for a washing line or a volleyball net. They become ruins because they seem to have lost their function and have no meaning in the present "but retain a suggestive and unstable semantic potential"(Julia Hall in Ruins of Modernity).
Ana Torfs "Echolalia" at WIELS Centre d'Art Contemporain, Brussels
September 26~2014
Under the title "Echolalia" Ana Torfs is showing for the first time in her Brussels base a broad selection of the work that she has been developing since the early 1990s. This exhibition offers an exhaustive survey of her works from the last five years, which until now had mostly been shown abroad, and sometimes had been executed for specific contexts. What's more, with the installation The Parrot & the Nightingale, a Phantasmagoria, WIELS is presenting a world première.
Andrew Durbin: Mature Themes Book Launch on the 26th at New Museum, New York

Nathalie Djurberg & Hans Berg "The Gates of the Festival" at Lisson Gallery, London
September 25~2014
A new series of works and a new direction marks this inaugural exhibition of Nathalie Djurberg and Hans Berg at Lisson Gallery. Sculptural interventions, projections, neon, film and music are interwoven throughout the spaces in an immersive installation, eschewing video screens or static objects for animated surfaces and pulsating environments. Merging audio-visual and multimedia elements, Djurberg & Berg's debut show with the gallery melds together as one continuous or total work of art, albeit constructed of discrete events and individual experiences.
Marina Abramović "White Space" at Lisson Gallery, London
September 25~2014
Taking its title from an early, immersive sound environment, "White Space" presents a range of historic works by Marina Abramović that have never been exhibited before. Featuring two important sound pieces, previously unseen video documentation of seminal performances and a number of photographs and works on paper, all dating from 1971-1981, the exhibition reveals the artist's first forays into a performance- based practice dealing with time and the immaterial.
Last day to watch Cry When It Happens by Laida Lertxundi on Vdrome
September 24~2014
Los Angeles City Hall is reflected onto the window of the Paradise Motel. It serves as an anchor for this traversal through the natural expanse of California. Here, we discover a restrained psychodrama of play, loss, and the transformation of everyday habitats. Music appears across the interiors and exteriors and speaks of limitlessness and longing.

Thomas Zipp "Effects of Stimulus-Range and Anchor Value on Psychophysical Judgement (The Laerdal Rehearsals)" at Galerie Guido W. Baudach, Berlin
September 24~2014
Dreams and visions are among the fundamentals of human existence. Quite what they are is one of the oldest questions in the history of mankind. All over the world there is a wealth of evidence for the fascination for the phenomena of dreams and visions – from the very beginnings of human culture right up to the present. And this much is clear from any perusal of the documented reflections on dreams and visions: the central question as to what a dream or vision is remains an historical constant, even if the very immediacy of the question renders it hermetic from the outset. People have always asked where dreams come from and what they are.
Matt Paweski "Sculpture" at Herald St, London
September 23~2014
Ricky Swallow: Part of my thinking coming to your studio was this idea of sculptural ingredients, what makes a Matt Paweski? The material structure of these sculptures hasn't changed much in the last few years, yet the forms have really evolved. What would you say about your decision to limit the amount of materials or ingredients that go into a sculpture? It seems like you've always worked within certain material parameters, whether that's the gauge of the metal, just metal, wood, rivets…like that's your toolkit or something.
Jennifer West "Flashlight Filmstrip Projections" at PICA, Portland
September 22~2014
Los Angeles-based artist Jennifer West will premiere the first in a series of interactive cinematic installations at this year's TBA Festival. Originally conceived as a swan song to celluloid, her project presents a screen-less, communal viewing space where audiences can playfully explore the art of projection.

Trappers overtake LCCC 73-63
NWC climbs above .500 mark
In their final game before the Christmas break, the Northwest College Trappers defeated Laramie County Community College 73-63 at Hank Cabre Gymnasium in Powell last Friday.
The victory, though not a thing of beauty, according to NWC head coach Andy Ward, put the Trappers at one game above .500 (7-6). It was NWC's sixth win in its last seven games.
"We started out a little flat, but I thought we settled in and played better toward the end of the first half," Ward said.
After the first 20 minutes, the Trappers, who trailed early in the contest, led by a slim 37-34 margin. In the second half, they slowly pulled away, thanks in part to a solid rebounding effort, which was paced by Ricardo Bodra. The freshman from Brazil pulled down 19 rebounds, 17 of which came on the defensive end for NWC.
"We put a lot of emphasis on rebounding coming into this game," Ward said. "One of our goals was to get 60 percent of the rebounds, and for the first time this season, we did that."
As a team, NWC outrebounded LCCC 40-24. But whereas the Trappers won the rebounding battle, they struggled when it came to taking care of the basketball. NWC committed 26 turnovers while LCCC had only 16. Of the Trappers turnovers, 17 came in the second half.
"We had too many turnovers in both halves," Ward said. "Coming into the game, we had been doing a better job of taking care of the ball. But our turnover number was up a bit (against LCCC). That's something we will continue to work on and try to improve."
As for individual efforts, Casper Hesseldal led the Trappers in scoring with 21 points to go along with eight rebounds. He was one of three Trappers to score in double figures. Also with double-digit scoring totals were Julian Olubuyi with 19 points and Bodra with 14, which gave him a double-double on the night.
Other Trappers contributing to the scoring attack were Mitchell Ackelson (9 points), Jordan Harris (8) and Anthony Harris (2). In the shooting department, NWC finished with a 29-of-53 effort from the field for a 54.7 percent shooting clip.
The Golden Eagles, who hit 26 of 61 from the field, were led by Dionte Clayborn's 23 points. Isaac Jenkins and Travis Bostick added 15 and 10 points, respectively, to round out LCCC's double-digit scoring performances.
"We had some guys step up for us," Ward said. "Julian Olubuyi played well for us. He put a lot of pressure on their defense with the way he pushed the ball up the floor. That, plus having guys that do a good job of getting up and down the court, sparked us."
• Up next: The Trappers (7-6) will play their next contest Jan. 7 against Miles Community College in Powell. That 7:30 p.m. game will open the second half of the season and sub-region play for NWC. On Jan. 10, NWC will host Central Wyoming College in a 5 p.m. matchup.
Shooting woes contribute to a pair of Panther loses
Panthers fall to Pinedale, Jackson
Struggles on the offensive end of the court for the Powell High School Panthers translated into a pair of Class 3A, West Conference setbacks last week.
On Friday, the Panthers (2-3 overall, 0-2 West Conference) dropped a 66-48 decision to Pinedale. The following day, Jackson topped PHS 44-41 in a game that went into overtime.
"Our experience is allowing us to run our offense and get good shots," said PHS head coach Troy Hildebrand.
"Unfortunately, we weren't able to take advantage of those scoring opportunities. We missed a lot of open shots in both games, and that's something we'll continue to work on in practice."
The Panthers opened the two-game road swing against Pinedale by scoring 16 points in the first four minutes of the first period for an eight-point advantage. However, the Wranglers fought back and trailed 18-15 by the end of the quarter. The game remained close during the second period, and the Panthers carried a 29-27 lead into halftime.
The Wranglers overtook PHS in the third period and by the end of that eight-minute span, the host team was ahead 46-37. With the game still close in the fourth period and PHS down by only seven points, Pinedale tacked on a basket to go up by 10. An ensuing technical foul on a Panther player led to a successful free throw by Pinedale. The Wranglers, who got possession of the ball after the free throws following the infraction, added another basket to go ahead by 13.
"That was a big turning point in the game," Hildebrand said. "We never got closer than 12 points after that."
Ryan Brandt led the Panthers' scoring effort with a career-high 22 points on a 10-of-13 shooting effort. He also had five steals and four rebounds. Others contributing to Powell's offensive output were Matt McArthur (9 points), Jordan Brown (5), Gavin Mills (4), Matt Kifer (4), Brandon Sullivan (2) and Galen Mills (2). Gavin Mills also had seven assists.
As a team, PHS hit just three of 13 shots from 3-point land and 17 of 34 attempts from 2-point range.
"Pinedale shot the ball extremely well," Hildebrand added. "Their main guys and their role players all hit shots at key moments. It was a tough game. We did a good job of taking care of the ball and had 12 turnovers to their 19.
We just couldn't get the shots to fall when we needed them."
Pinedale was led by 6-8 standout Wilson Rogers, who finished with 24 points.
Against Jackson, the Panthers' shooting woes continued in a 44-41, overtime loss. The Panthers hit only 15 of 67 shots from the field, including just two of 24 from behind the 3-point arc and 13 of 43 from 2-point range.
"Once again, we really struggled shooting the ball," Hildebrand said. "Jackson started out in a man-to-man defense, but after two trips down the floor, they got out of that and really packed it in down low. That left our perimeter guys open for 3-point shots, but we couldn't connect. We didn't hit our first 3-pointer until the fourth period."
Even with its shooting woes, PHS trailed by a mere 20-18 margin at halftime. Jackson extended that lead to 34-25 during the third period as the Panthers hit just one of 15 shots during that eight-minute stretch.
However, a solid defensive effort by PHS held the Broncs to only one basket in the fourth period, and the Panthers were able to tie the game at 36 on a 2-pointer by Galen Mills with 40 seconds to play in regulation.
"After the basket by Galen, we had a chance to win it after a steal by Brandon Sullivan," Hildebrand said. "We held the ball for the last shot, but we weren't able to convert and get a basket in heavy traffic at the end of the period."
The Broncs then outscored the Panthers 8-5 in overtime to claim the victory.
Brandt led PHS with 15 points, and Galen Mills and McArthur added 11 and 10 points, respectively. The scoring for PHS was rounded out by Sullivan with three points and Brown with two. Brandt also had a season-high 14 rebounds, and McArthur contributed with 13 boards. Brown led the team in assists with seven. He also had four rebounds and four steals. As a team, the Panthers committed only seven turnovers.
"We did a good job of taking care of the ball, and did a good job on the boards. We had 42 rebounds, including 15 on offense. Both of those were season highs for us. But we just couldn't connect on our shots. But even with us not making shots, we were in the game and had a chance to win it there at the end."
• Up next: PHS will face third-ranked Buffalo Friday in a 5:30 p.m road game. On Saturday, the Panthers will be at home and will host second-ranked, Class 2A Thermopolis. Tipoff for Saturday's game is set for 7:30 p.m.
Wolf decision shouldn't be rushed
Word of a Bush administration plan to remove wolves from the endangered species list, again, wasn't a big surprise.
But that it could happen by the end of this week has many people questioning whether the decision is too hasty.
Of the three states directly affected — Montana, Idaho and Wyoming — our state has the most at stake. While the three states' management plans each created trophy game zones for wolves, Wyoming's also contains a predator area — about 90 percent of the state — where wolves could be shot at any time, by anyone.
The cowboy state's dual-status plan is under fire from conservation and animal rights groups, and it is one of the reasons U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy issued an injunction against the delisting in July. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has final approval of Wyoming's management plan — and even though the service accepted the plan in early 2008, Gov. Dave Freudenthal's office says the governor has been told the plan won't be accepted unless the dual-status classification is changed.
Without the Fish and Wildlife Service's endorsement of Wyoming's plan, an immediate decision on the issue could result in wolves being delisted in Idaho and Montana, while remaining under federal protection in Wyoming.
That scenario moves Wyoming back to square one and would only open the door for many more years of costly lawsuits brought by groups on both sides of the issue.
The right management plan — one that would maintain a viable wolf population in the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem, but also protect the state's livestock industry — should be developed through methodical scientific planning and, of course, with compromise on both sides.
It's not a decision that should be made in haste to further a political agenda.

Property tax relief may become a reality
The public heard the "lower property taxes" refrain from most candidates in the last election cycle — both at the local and state levels.
In fact, voters made it clear that property tax is a big concern. Property-tax increases have, in recent years, hit most homeowners in the state, but low- and fixed-income citizens have felt the pain of increasing assessments most acutely.
Now it appears our elected officials are going to follow through on their pledges of property tax relief. This week, the Joint Revenue Interim Committee considered several proposals and voted to endorse a bill that, according to the Associated Press, will cut property taxes for nearly 157,000 homeowners.
According to the story, lawmakers still anticipate considering several other proposals when the Legislature convenes in January.
The bill being endorsed by the interim committee would save people, who have owned their homes for at least three years, an average of $256 a year.
Next month, our entire legislative body will have the burden of weighing which plan will help the people who most need it — low-income homeowners and elderly people living on fixed incomes. These are the people who may not be able to afford to keep their homes unless they get some tax relief. Helping them should be the top priority, and it seems lawmakers are off to a good start.

Last season many Miami Dolphins fans were in an uproar when General Manager Jeff Ireland opted to pass on the contract demands of RT Eric Winston in favor of no one. Ireland set a price on Winston and didn't budge. A common theme during free agency.
Winston left Miami without a deal and reportedly without a set offer. He traveled next to Kansas City and despite his injury history and questions, the Chiefs didn't let him leave. Winston signed a deal that would have paid him around 22 million with almost 9 million guaranteed.
Tonight, the Chiefs opted to release the guard instead of paying him the 4 plus million he was due. While the move saves the team almost 5 million, they will be on the hook for just over six million from the guaranteed portion of the deal. All in all, according to Pro-Football Talk, the Chiefs spent 9 million for Winston to play one season.
The move comes on the heals of KC's franchise designation of LT Brendan Albert.
The move by the Chiefs does not mean that Ireland was smart in his desire to under pay the tackle but don't be surprised if Winston makes another free agent trip to Miami. He was impressed with what he saw last season. The Dolphins are in need of a RT with the move of Jonathan Martin to LT. The release of Winston could be a perfect opportunity for the Dolphins to fill a need from an unexpected source.
Reaction in KC is shock as Winston played well in his one season and recently spoke with our sister site Arrowheadaddict about the upcoming Chiefs season where he sounded very excited about the teams future.

A Fairhaven woman was arraigned today on motor vehicle homicide charges following the death of a 23-year-old man.
Caitlin Chouinard, 26, was driving her '05 Jeep on Rte. 140 north in New Bedford around 2:00 am Friday when she apparently lost control. The vehicle rolled over and landed on Rte. 140 north in between Exits 4 and 5.
Soon after, Adam Taylor, 23, of Acushnet, crashed his '94 Jeep into Chouinard's vehicle.
The collision sent both vehicles up in flames. Chouinard was able to escape before the fire began. Taylor was pronounced dead at the scene.
Chouinard is being treated for unknown injuries at St. Luke's Hospital.
She was charged with motor vehicle homicide by result of operating under the influence of alcohol, and with negligent operation of a motor vehicle and marked lanes violations. Bail was set for $5,000 cash and she is due to appear in New Bedford District Court for a pretrial hearing on January 24th.

Bad Purchase!
By Unhappy Lady
from Lk Havasu City, Az
I thought this would be great for use in the bedroom but didn't have a chance to use it as it DID NOT work! Tried 2 different sets of batteries and it still did not work! When I packed it to return it and took it to the post office it cost me $9.00 so this was a very expensive lesson learned! No instructions how to possibly correct a problem!
Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

Thread: Headrest Solutions
I was considering buying a
I was considering buying a new Honda Civic. I love everything about the car, except for the headrest! After 30 minutes of test-driving, my neck and back ache! So glad to hear it's not "just me", and that others share this observation and frustration. I really don't understand why they don't make the headrests ADJUSTABLE, since we all have different comfort levels! Makes no sense to me. When paying thousands of dollars for a car, I shouldn't have to spend additional money trying to fix a stupid headrest. Thanks Honda, you just lost my business!

Just came from testing a
Just came from testing a 2012 volkswagan cc. After a 45 min. drive had severe neck and shoulder pain. Am told that the headrests on the 2013 models are adjustable, but they are out of price range. You can turn the headrests on the Optima around, which makes them a little better. I spent 2 years in physical therapy after an auto accident in the 90's. My doctor at the St. Mary's Spine Center in San Francisco advised never purchasing a car where your head was out of alignment and pushed forward. Can you have good gas milage and not end up in physical therapy?
Thanks everyone for these
Thanks everyone for these comments... I thought I was the only one with this problem!
I'm looking to purchase a new'ish car... 2012 or 2011, does anyone know of a car that doesn't have this absurd problem, or has reasonably adjustable headrests? What would you recommend I buy?
I took my Altima to an
I took my Altima to an automotive upholstery shop. They removed the covering from each of the front headrests so as not to damage the surfaces, and bent the posts to straightened the headrest angle slightly. He did one headrest at a time, and let me try the drivers seat and then bent a little bit more to customize for me. I was going to do this myself, but the upholstery guy did a better job than I could have done (I'd have never gotten the cover off the headrest). It cost me less than fifty bucks and an hour of time. The headrests are now very comfortable for me. My head is postioned normally, and the headrest right behind the back of my head (very safe still). The headrests still do slide up and down in the seatback, although they are a little bit tight in the sockets because the rods are slightly bent. I don't care about that as they are hardly ever adjusted.
I've been looking for a new
I've been looking for a new car. My old one is an 1995 and is starting to cost a lot of money to maintain, but I'm now thinking I'll have to keep maintaining it. I've driven every brand mentioned (except BMW & Subaru...can't afford BMW and the closest Subaru dealer is far away), and they all have horrible headrests. Safety in case of an accident is of no value if you sustain long term injury to your back and neck from every day wear and tear. No wonder the auto manufacturers are going bankrupt; they don't listen to their customers. Idiots, all of them. Someone, please build a car that is worth purchasing!

Even now, over a year later than the previous post, I cannot find a product that solves this problem. I like our new Prius V except for the head restraint problem. The restraint pushes my head very far forward from a comfortable position for me, and into a position that in the past has been associated with a pinched nerve between C5 and C6 resulting in several fingers going numb. After hours of searching and inquiring, I\'ve given up and jury-rigged my own solution out of several pieces of half-inch-thick closed-cell foam (Ensolite) held together with duct tape. I tapered the pieces so that it\'s thin at the bottom (just a couple of inches above the seat) and thick at the top (at the top of the seat back). I needed to make the top six pieces thick to change my back angle enough that the head restraint isn\'t pushing on my head. Assuming this works for one or two long drives, I\'ll try to find a place that does foam and ask them to cut something of the same density and same shape. Hopefully they can also cover it in fabric that is close to the interior fabric of the car.
It seems to me ridiculous that such a health hazard exists. As many hours as people spend in their cars, for the head restraint to be fixed in such a way that many drivers risk spinal damage is appalling.

I haven't worn a vest since my middle school days, when I blindly searched for at least a trace of fashion sense. So I was shocked when, while flipping through my magazines, I was shot back to the awkward time. Celebrities like Jessica, Ashlee and Heidi Klum were sporting the retro top. To my utter amazement and a double take glance, the vest was rather cute. Pulled over a tank or a body hugging long sleeve t-shirt and you have yourself a great casual outfit

Comments about Baudville Tokens of Appreciation - Super Bundle 5:
The tokens are very well made and very colorful. The employees loved them. The only thing I was disappointed in was the fact that there was not a magnet on the back. I feel it would be better displayed on a wall rather than the envelope.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
