Ursuline showcases the community's talent with the recent launch of the 2014 edition of Inscape.
The College began producing a fine arts magazine in 1945. Every spring since then, the English Department, in conjunction with the Art Department, publishes Inscape, an award-winning magazine featuring the writing and artwork of faculty, staff and students of the College. Submissions, including essays, reviews, poems, short stories, photographs, and artwork, are evaluated by an editorial staff made up of students and supervised by a faculty member of the English Department.

Anna Arnold Brings Boldness, Aptitude to Ursuline's Art Scene
St. Angela Merici, Foundress of the Ursuline Sisters, once said, "Do something, get moving, be con- fident, risk new things, stick with it, then be ready for big surprises." St. Angela Merici was a woman ahead of her time and her progressive vision is exemplified every day on Ursuline College's campus. One woman who embodies this boldness is Anna Arnold, Director of Florence O'Donnell Wasmer Gallery.
Since the age of five, Arnold has considered herself an artist. "There was never an issue with identity. I knew I wanted to be an artist," says Anna. Encouraged all through her life to be an artist by family and teachers, coupled with her own talent, persistence and stubbornness, Anna found her way from artist to teacher to gallery director.
Ursuline alumna Katie Holzheimer's 'Impressions' Exhibit shows now until April in Wasmer Gallery
Ursuline alumna Katie Holzheimer is hosting four workshops at the Florence O'Donnell Wasmer Gallery: Feb 12, Feb 27, March 1 and March 6. Holzheimer is currently showing her solo exhibition in Wasmer Gallery titled 'Impressions' now through April 4, 2014. The opening reception was February 7.
According to Holzheimer, her paintings are inspired by her natural surroundings. Her goal is to create art that brings peace, contentment, balance and enjoyment to the viewer.
"I love the emotion that comes from being in nature: peacefulness and tranquility. All people are close to the beauty of nature in some way," Holzheimer said.
An Artful Alum: Kathryn Holzheimer
If you've enjoyed a hot cup of coffee or delicious slice of pizza pie in the College's new Pilla Student Dining Room you have probably noticed the vivacious floral painting on the south wall of the room. Reds, greens, blacks and oranges make up soft lines and whimsical poppy-esque flowers.
And who is the painter behind the sponges, sticks and combs? Ursuline alumna Kathryn Holzheimer '75. Holzheimer, who does not usually use paintbrushes, generously donated the painting to Ursuline. The piece was originally featured in the Alumnae Invitational Exhibition that ran this past June through August in the Florence O'Donnell Wasmer Gallery.
"I love the emotion that comes from being in nature: peacefulness and tranquility," Holzheimer said. "All people are close to the beauty of nature in some way."
Q&A with an Artist: Diane Pinchot
Diane Pinchot, OSU is a professor in the Studio Art Program at Ursuline College. She's been teaching for 40 years now, in which time Diane has acted as Chair of the Art Department while showing internationally as an artist. We checked in with Diane to get her thoughts about the art program, her inspiration and influence and the role of artists in the future.
As an artist yourself, what's your inspiration and influences?
I am still inspired by simple and beautiful form; in the last 20 years, advocacy has been important in my art. But mostly, I work from deep inside, letting my intuition guide me.
Do you have a favorite piece you've created?
The international work I did in El Salvador, helping to build an altar on the spot where the 4 Churchwomen were found in a shallow grave, really changed the way I work and create. It really changed my life. Working with the craftspeople in El Salvador, opened up a new way of seeing and working, I began to understand what it means to work in and on a sacred space and what it means to make sacred art – it certainly did not have anything to do with money or power tools. But with the simplest material and form, sacred work can be made in a most beautiful manner.
In your opinion, what's the future for art and artists?
Artists are key players for the future, I would almost call them prophets. Artists are usually 50 years ahead of their time, coming up with creative interactive art work that takes us into the future. Many of our art students at Ursuline have gone on to graduate school, becoming teachers and art therapists. But, they also have become directors and community organizers, they have volunteered in the Peace Core and Americore, become delegates to developing countries, have become artists and designers within companies and large corporations.
Artists are the connectors, holding up the mirror for us to see ourselves… They help us change the systems when we don't like what we see, and helps us see the beauty in our lives when we can't see it for ourselves. Artists are motivators and inspire us to move forward and live a joyful life. Artists are advocates for the truth. In history, when you want to know what a civilization was thinking, just look at their art, especially there ceramic sculptures… it's very telling.
How has the art program evolved over time? How will it change in the future?
I went to Ursuline College as a student. I have seen a wide spectrum of change. But some of the qualities I loved about Ursuline then, I still try to keep in the program. I remember feeling so secure in the studios that I could risk making new and large paintings and sculptures, we were encouraged to toss around new ideas and expressions, be authentic, so these are the qualities we have all tried to maintain, here at Ursuline College. The difference, of course, is certainly all the new technology we have now, this opens up such a wealth of new possibilities for us to blend and mix with all the old traditional ways of making a painting, design, sculpture, installation and time based art.
Give us your thoughts on the senior art show? Why is it important for a college to showcase students' works?
The most important thing for me to do is to support the creative process of my students while working in any class, but especially as they are preparing to make a body of artwork for the senior show. Nurturing and guiding what is really already present within the student, is my main goal. Sometimes students don't realize they already have all that they need right inside of them. Their expression is just waiting to be tapped into. My job is to encourage them to see their gifts and their passion. Every student showing their body of art work makes the world a richer more beautiful place to be. The students encourage all of us with their insightful views of society and their passion for making art.Time after time I am inspired by my students. That's why I continue to teach.
What support does the studio art program provide to students?
The studios in the art department provides a safe space where students learn to express themselves authentically,ask questions, learn technique and skill, and then risk making art that will give voice to their own expression.
In one word describe the feeling you experience when you are creating art?
Obedient would be the word… the explanation would be my ability to listen to my intuition and own ground of knowing and create authentically from this ground.

After RAW: A Q&A with the Artists
On Friday, October 11, 2013 forty local artists, including Ursuline College alumna Robin Smith '05 and art students Stephanie Pratt and Alyx Cyr participated in "RAW: Natural Born Artists," a one-night show at the Cleveland Agora. We caught up with the artists after RAW to get their impression of the exhibit and to see what they have in store for the future.
Alyx Cyr, Student
What was your impression of the RAW exhibit? It was the perfect blend of urban artists, fashion and culture. Everyone had a great time with all the performers and runway shows.
What was your favorite moment from the RAW exhibit? I thought it was pretty cool to network with other local artists. I'm hopefully going to be doing collaborative work with a few of them next year.
What have you learned from this experience? I learned that it's important to put yourself out there. It's important to be vulnerable because showcasing a full collection is very personal.
What or who inspires you? Nature. And, people.
What are your plans for the future? I'm working on large-scale electroluminescent wire light and plexiglass animals. These will be showcased in the Florence O' Donnell Wasmer Gallery's student show this spring. I'm going to be doing some collaborative work with other artists and fulfilling custom orders from new clients I've met at RAW.
What was your impression of the RAW exhibit? The exhibit was great and better than I expected it to be. It was well attended and the theater had great energy – it was buzzing with all kinds of creative types.
What was your favorite moment from the RAW exhibit? I would have to say my favorite moments of the RAW exhibit were when people would go to my area and the expression on their faces changed immediately. It created a dialogue, some were smiling and would immediately ask if I was the artist. One guy actually gave me a huge hug. It was pretty funny.
What have you learned from this experience? The learning experience was definitely valuable. Being overtly prepared was helpful but also a bit stressful. It was the first time showcasing my work on such a large scale so some doubts came into play. By the final week, I decided to just put the stress in God's hands and when I did that the flow of setting up and promoting my works was a breeze.
What or who inspires you? Being an illustrator people tend to inspire me. Sometimes textures, prints, designs, fashion, color and music. Whatever comes to mind.
What are your plans for the future? I would like to see my illustrations featured in magazine publications, promoting products for different companies, working with card companies or even in the publishing world of book covers. One of my goals for 2014 is to release a children's e-book written and illustrated by me.
What was your impression of the RAW exhibit? As I had attended the August RAW showcase, I had known what to expect in terms of the finished set-up but it was amazing to see the transformation from a bare-boned stage to the finished product.
What was your favorite moment from the RAW exhibit? My favorite moment from the RAW exhibit was seeing everyone's set-up before the doors opened. The whole process was absolutely beautiful.
What have you learned from this experience? This experience has taught me a lot from learning how to appropriately promote myself and my work as well as how to manage time with set-up and tear down.
What or who inspires you? I am inspired by nature and the world around me. I feel that it keeps me grounded and is the most organic look into who I am as an artist and as a person.
What are your plans for the future? As of current, I have some options. I would love to go into marketing or advertising as a graphic designer but I plan to continue to pursue fine arts and participate in various exhibits. Eventually, I would also like to pursue an MFA with a mixed media concentration and teach at a college level.

Many of the emails that I have sent or forwarded that had any
Anti-Obama in it were negated by Snopes. I thought that was odd.
Until I discovered this:
Snopes, Soros and the Supreme Courts Justice Kagan
Maybe it would be a good time to take a second look at some of the stuff
that got kicked in the ditch by Snopes.
We've known that it was owned by a lefty couple but hadn't known
It to be financed by Soros!
Snopes is heavily financed by George Soros;
A big time supporter of Obama!
In our Search for the truth department, we find what I have suspected on many occasions.
I went to Snopes to check something about the dockets of the new
Supreme Court Justice, Elena Kagan who Obama appointed and Snopes
Said the email was false and there were no such dockets so I Googled
The Supreme Court, typed in Obama-Kagan, and guess what?
Yep you got it; Snopes Lied!
Every one of those dockets are there.
So Here is what I wrote to Snopes:
Referencing the article about Elena Kagan and Barrack Obama dockets:
The information you have posted stating that there were no such cases
As claimed and the examples you gave are blatantly false.
I went directly to the Supreme Courts website, typed in Obama Kagan
And immediately came up with all of the dockets that the article made reference to.
I have long suspected that you really slant things but this was really shocking.
Thank You, I hope you will be much more truthful in the future, but I doubt it.
Ill bet you didn't know this.
Kagan was representing Obama in all the petitions to prove his citizenship!
Now she may help rule on them!
Folks, this is really ugly.
Chicago Politics; and the beat goes on and on and on.
Once again the US Senate sold us out!
Now we know why Obama nominated Elana Kagan for the Supreme Court.
Pull up the Supreme Courts website, go to the docket and search for Obama.
She was the Solicitor General for all the suits against him filed with the Supreme
Court to show proof of natural born citizenship.
He owed her big time.
All of the requests were denied of course.
They were never heard.
It just keeps getting deeper and deeper, doesn't it?
The American people mean nothing any longer.
It's all about payback time for those who compromised themselves to elect
Someone who really has no true right to even be there.
Here are some websites of the Supreme Court Docket:
You can look up some of these hearings and guess what?
Elana Kagan is the attorney representing Obama!
Check out these examples:
If you hold sacred the freedoms granted to you by the
U.S. Constitution; by all means, PASS this ON!
here truly is tyranny afoot.

As you can see by viewing the "Editor's Note" that replaced the article days later, the website admits the court cases in question were incorrectly described as pertaining to Obama's Constitutional eligibility.
"Those cases, in fact, were a series of unrelated disputes pending before the Supreme Court," the disclaimer states, "and the references have been removed from this report."
Indeed, the references had to be removed because the fact-checking site Snopes.com delved into the details of the specific filings cited above and discovered that not one of them had anything to do with Obama's status as a natural-born U.S. citizen. In fact, the majority of the filings not only predated Obama's presidency but named George W. Bush as the original defendant. The dockets list Elena Kagan as Obama's attorney of record because it was her job as U.S. Solicitor General to represent the Executive Branch.
None of which, sad to say, stopped the grammatically-challenged author of a subsequent message (example #2 above) from repeating the disproven claims and bluntly stating "Snopes lied," when in fact the contrary is true: Snopes got it exactly right, yet again.

The Truth:
In October, 2008, stories began circulating via forwarded emails that the popular urban legends site Snopes.com was owned by liberals and was "in the tank" for presidential candidate Barack Obama.
As with many forwarded emails, the criticism did not include any example of what the writer of the email claimed was the difference between what Snopes.com reported and what Barack Obama had actually said.
Snopes.com is an excellent site that has become an authoritative source for information about urban legends and forwarded emails. We regard David and Barbara Mikkelson, the founders and operators of Snopes.com, as colleagues and professional researchers who have earned a good reputation for what they do.

- Grandbrother 2012/02/13 23:30:08+2You said: "Kagan was representing Obama in all the petitions to prove his citizenship!"
And then you provided links to dockets supposedly proving your claim - yet they do not. None of them are cases about his citizenship, and two of the three actually predate Obama's Presidency. He simply inhereted them when he took office.
You should stop believing these insane chain emails...

- Ozzyboy 2012/02/13 20:32:58+2Every time I wanted to check on anything negative on the current administration, it always came back "unknown." That threw up a red flag so I tested it and found consistently it backed up the liberals. A few years back, I didn't know who Glenn Beck was and wanted some information on him. Guess what the first site was when I typed in his name. Media Matters. I didn't know who they were either but I'm a quick learner. The real Beck site didn't come up for quite a while. It seemed the top ten sites were hit pieces
on Beck. Today it was broadcast that 0's top advisor is in contact routinely with the media to control the news agenda as much as possible. They control what gets out and how to spin the stories. This is not news to me, it's been happening for a long time.

"Snopes, Soros and the Supreme Courts Justice Kagan

i'll see this same message or something a lot like it has been posted around the internet for a while.
- +1Well thanks for the compliment, but:
We have always been on the right, could not get any further to the right as we support:
1) Pro-Life
2) Marriage Between One man and One woman and are Opposed to gay marriage--a contradiction in terms (gay marriage is contrary to the Will and Word of God).
3) Holding people accountable for crimes committed including people here unlawfully and illegally.
4) Supporters of the United States Constitution without exception including the 2nd Amendment.
5) Strong Defense, and NOT to hire an equally funded, NOT an equally manned, NOT an equally strong Civilian Force, which is what Mr. Obama has planned,
while he has done away with pensions for men who have served for 20 years plus.
6) Opposed to a One World Government/New World Order planned by Obama and his Marxist, CFR, Bilderberg, Trilateral, United Nations friends including his Marxist czars.
7) Prayer in schools, children should be allowed to pray IF they wish to do so, NOT stopped from doing so.
8) Bible reading as a private devotion and as a history class
9) Do away with the godless, humanistic sex education agenda including the give away of condemns.
10) Limited government, low taxes such as with the FLAT Tax plan
11) There are others; but this is good for a start.
- +4i'll bite...
1. you are pro-life, fine, but the option should still be there for people that want it.
2.your definition of marriage doesn't fit everyones. stop trying to push your religious laws on other people they don't apply to.
3. fine by me.
4. fine by me.
5. seems to me some people are more in favor of a strong offense and want to go to war with the whole muslim world.
6. uh oh, conspiracy theorist alert. also remember when people said the same thing about bush?
7. i've never seen that stopped ever. and seems to me some groups want to mandate prayer in schools, well.
8. as a history class? and you guy say the left has an agenda.
9. because letting people know how to protect themselves is a bad thing right?
10. Limited government, from the same people that want to take rights away from other people? the same people that want control of a woman's body? the same people that want to completely de-secularize the country?
- +1LOL kids just don't get it - some of us have been where we are all along (its why they edit blogs - so no one can see what we said 7 years ago ) its the world that has shifted farther to the left including the Republicans ...not me , I have not moved ! and from the looks of it not you ether -
- +3if it's true why send it as a chain email? it's like the whole 'pit bulls are going to be banned' email that went around, debunked by Snopes. the fonda email, also debunked by them and a lot of others. none of those actually get picked up by anyone. just passed around and thats why i ignore them.
- Just to be clear you are saying SNOPES is not biased because SNOPES says so LOL now that is funny – OK I did not see the other two but the Pit Bull ban was real , it came up for a vote in at least three states that I know of and was a national issue back in 05 when a congressman tried to push a bill on that subject . You are acting like a thing can be proven false if someone makes a chain mail out of it ...that opens a world of possibilities !
- +1other sites of the likes have also debunked it. the only reason people attack it like they do is because they don't like what it says.
i mess with scientologist and these are people tried to lie, especially to their own members. if you ask one of them what they think about some of there other members stalking and harassing critics they will say thats a lie. but how does that explain why they actually sent someone to my place when i never told anyone my name or where i live and that person tried threatening me in a legal sense.
thats how people work, they don't like it they'll take it as a lie. then they are willing to take anything anyone says that bogus and act like it's for real.
- debunking takes more than blind faith and the excuse the the man died when Obama was 10 years old - Obama has used "rules for radicals" and no one has debunked that in the least !
As far as the cult of Scientology those guys are strange (the will probably sue me for saying cult ) ...I like the books L Ron wrote but only the ones he wrote before he died - after that his style went to hell ! LOL
- Obama has used "rules for radicals"? please don't tell me you saw that off of some chain letter to.
as for the scientologist suing you i mess with them in person and call them a cult all the time. and i make them run away

A wonderful tool
By Maintenance Man
from Mattoon IL.
Comments about Chicago Electric Welding 240 Volt Inverter Plasma Cutter with Digital Display:
I use this tool for auto restoration/frame work. It cuts straighter than a sawzall, and gets into places that a cut-off wheel can't. Anyone who doesn't like this tool is just too hard to please, or blindly loyal to overpriced trade name tools. I have used this tool for two years, If it fails I will buy another.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

WOW! I am impressed!
By Doc
from South Texas
I was very skeptical about purchasing this imported C H I N A stuff, but I did it anyway. It is an asset to my shop. I use it on the ranch to repair tractors, trailers and I also use it for auto body restoration. I've always used a oxy/acetylene torch to cut metal. This thing is great, it cuts like it says it should. I even cut 1" steel plate but it took 2 passes. It easily cut a 5/8" steel plate. I'm impressed. I wanted extended warranty but was $179 for 2 years. I have 90 days to return it, so far, so good..Thumbs up in my book!

Very good Machine for Average User.
By Mark - Tig, Arc, Plasma.. Arc for 20 yea
from Bryson City, North Carolina
My first ever tool recomendation.. I was very impressed with this machine.This is a very good machine. I upgraded to this (YES), after 2 Longevity Plasma Cutters.. Was very, very impressed with this machine. Have cut anything and everything up to 1/2" thick mild steel plate. Excellent on cutting Expanded metal.. Really Surprised me. Very Consistent operation.. If it doesn't operate well, make sure you have a good ground.. Can't buy a better machine for the price they have on these.. I am sure I will always keep one of these in the shop.. Primary machine now, but, will always have one as a backup if I ever find a machine I like better.. Impressed with the wear of the consumables also. I thought I would never wear out the first.. Would definitely recommend.. Surely recommend over the Longevity anything with Plasma.. What a Joke bunch of garbage machines. Finally ended up with one of their Weldall 180's.. Does OK on the Tig side of the house, but, the arc isn't worth the headache, and the plasma never cut more than 1/2 inch without screwing up.. Company won't stand behind the machines. Just want you to upgrade to the next and pay shipping and upgrade cost.. Nothing but junk on 7 machines I went through, including 2 generators that are both junk before the year was out. Got tired of the free machines plus shipping, and junked them too.

Okay I had initially gave it raving reviews, but 2 months into it and it broke. It will not cut at all, it turns on and sparks, but no cutting. I replaced consumables and nothing.I am going to take it back to HF, it has the 90 day store warranty. I want my money back!

NWSB Insider and Seattle Seahawks Blogger Brett Bivens gives us his five MVP players from the Week 1 NFL preseason game against the San Diego Chargers. Derrick Coleman, Benson Mayowa, Tarvaris Jackson, Malcolm Smith and Christine Michael all make the cut. Plus an honorable mention to Stephen Williams, who would have made the list if not for dropping a ball that he should have caught.
Five Standout Seahawks against the Chargers
Seahawks Anthony McCoy tears Achilles, out 6-9 months
NWSB Editor and Insider Chris Anderson talks about the reports that Anthony McCoy has torn his Achilles and underwent surgery on Thursday. With 2013 being a year that could see the Seahawks chase one of their best seasons in team history, any injury, especially to a guy who saw a significant amount of snaps last year, is important to look at. Watch for Darren Fells, Cooper Helfet, Victor Marshall, Sean McGrath, Luke Willson, and Matt Austin in 2013.

The paper, entitled Unique in the Crowd: The privacy bounds of human mobility, took an anonymized dataset from an unidentified mobile operator containing call information for around 1.5 million users over 14 months. The purpose of the study was to figure out how many data points — based on time and location — were needed to identify individual users. The answer, for 95 percent of the "anonymous" users logged in that database, was just four.

Bigger and better
GATS grows in exhibitors and attendees.
The Texas-sized Great American Trucking Show grew even bigger this year. The exhibits and entertainment drew 44,925 attendees to the Dallas Convention Center in August for the seventh annual show, an increase in attendance of 5.1 percent over 2004.
The show saw a 5 percent increase in owner-operators and a 12 percent increase in fleet attendees. Almost 100 more exhibitors than last year were on display at the show, and Western Star and Mack rounded out the truck manufacturing OEMs for the first time. The show also grew in trailer manufacturers and distributors.
This year's show featured two free concerts, Terri Clark, sponsored by Mobil Delvac, and Sammy Kershaw, sponsored by Volvo Trucks North America. Other celebrity events were autograph signings by Overdrive Radio Network hosts Bill Mack and Larry Shannon; country singers Shelly Fairchild, Bobby Pinson and Carolyn Dawn Johnson at the Midnight Trucking Radio Network booth; and the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders at the Freightliner booth.
The show also offered Partners in Business owner-operator success seminars and the first Fleet Forum, hosted by the Texas Motor Transportation Association and featuring keynote speaker, NFL great Bart Starr.
Truckers News booth events
Each day at the Truckers News booth, a chef cooked up reader-submitted recipes included in the free Cookin' in the Cab cookbook. The cooking demonstration was sponsored by Interstate Distributors, who also gave away a microwave/coffee pot combo with inverter on Saturday.
The Truckers News booth was also the hub for the daily $1,000 Mardi Gras Giveaway. To enter, attendees visited various GATS booths to pick up Mardi Gras beads, then turned in the entry form in time for the daily drawing.
The three winners were Christina Shively of Belton, Texas, who owns Majestic Transport Company with her husband Dale and is leased to Panther Transportation Services; Lora Caudill of Brooksville, Fla., who drives for Prime, Inc.; and Bill Grose of Fort Wayne, Ind., who drives for Westside Transport.
Volvo introduces VT 800 daycab
Volvo introduced a daycab version of the VT 880 tractor Aug. 25.
Scott Kress, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Volvo Trucks North America, called the new VT 800 "a great daycab tractor for the heavy transport segment."
Like the VT 880, the VT 800 daycab comes standard with the Volvo D16 engine, with up to 625 horsepower and 2,250 pounds-feet of torque. Ed Saxman, Volvo's top expert in drivetrain spec'ing, said the new engine runs in a sweet spot that's at a lower rpm than with the company's D12 engine. He said over-the-road truckers would specify an axle in the range of 3.21:1 for highway applications with an overdrive transmission.
Volvo also introduced Volvo Link Sentry, a form of satellite communications that communicates with Volvo technical resources on an Internet-based network. It will provide remote diagnostics and monitor any of the truck's fault codes. Drivers can read the codes on the truck's Driver Message Center to be warned of a problem. The system is available at no charge on all 2006 model 880s.

Comparing Cournot and Bertrand Equilibria in a Differentiated Duopoly with Product R&D
AbstractThis paper compares Bertrand and Cournot equilibria in a differentiated duopoly with substitute goods and product R&D. I find that R&D expenditure, prices and firms� net profits are always higher under quantity competition than under price competition. Furthermore, output, consumer surplus and total welfare are higher in the Bertrand equilibrium than in the Cournot equilibrium if either R&D spillovers are weak or products are sufficiently differentiated. If R&D spillovers are strong and products are not too differentiated, then output, consumer surplus and total welfare are lower in the Bertrand case than in the Cournot case. Thus a key finding of the paper is that there are circumstances where quantity competition can be more beneficial than price competition both for consumers and for firms.

Aside from the legal issues that Georgia State quarterback Kelton Hill may face in the wake of his arrest and being charged with burglary is whether he will be allowed to stay in school. His arraignment date hasn't yet been set.
The process works this way:

I still think GSU will be okay. We have to stick to our values, and the rest will take care of itself.
July 19th, 2011
6:16 pm
The truth always finds the light sooner or later and I'm certain this situation is no exception. It's just a shame that college athletics continues down this same road. The majority of student athletes are good and honest and we must keep this in perspective. I wish Kelton the best and I hope the right thing is done no matter which way the chips fall. We all have made mistakes so remember this when you decide to cast your stones! GO PANTHERS!!!
July 19th, 2011
6:36 pm
Sorry GSUalumbaseball81,but entering a room thru the window to commit a burglary is not a mistake.
July 19th, 2011
7:00 pm
@ ai
Well like I said when he's proven guilty then the chips fall that way. Innocent until convicted and I believe this is the Law of our Great Land. Thank God your not on the jury! By the way how many jurys have you served on? I myself have served on two!
July 19th, 2011
7:02 pm
We dont know the facts. Were they arrested at the scene in the act or after the fact? There are still a lot of questions.
July 19th, 2011

Dang, if spending two days in Fulton County jail doesn't straighten you out, I'm not sure what will.

At what point will CBC held accountable for bringing in players that he must suspend, or have other unique situations like Star Jackson or Kelton Hill? We don't doubt he's doing things the "right way" but when should we look at him for signing kids who don't put themselves in these situations?
July 19th, 2011
8:46 pm
@The Dome is Our
All programs go though this even with the good kids. We are dealing wit 18 year olds. Try and remember your decision making skills at that age.
July 19th, 2011
8:47 pm
Thanks for the info Doug. Makes me want to reserve judgment even further.
July 19th, 2011
10:39 pm
He'll be fine. CBC needs to lay the smackdown though, just to show 'em all who's boss.
July 19th, 2011
10:44 pm
I hope for Kelton's sake he has learned his lesson and can make changes in his decision making. I also hope that if he repents he is given another chance. I believe our culture has gone way too far to the right when it comes to forgiveness. When I was a kid, we seemed to be able to get away with everything….now kids are charged with felonies for rolling trees w/ toilette paper….
July 20th, 2011

Hmm. I'm scared for him to leave the team as I know it will make for a much more disappointing season. That being said, I want GSU to keep higher standards than the teams in the rest of the state.
July 20th, 2011
9:43 am
I'm with pretty much all of the above…I hope Kelton gets through this okay, and that CBC reminds us all that GSU standards are higher than most.
July 20th, 2011
11:39 am
Be assured that Kelton won't repeat his mistakes. I don't know the particulars of the crime, but i do know his family. Rest assured that his father, who is a police detective, will handle this situation and make sure that this will never happen with Kelton again.
July 20th, 2011
12:02 pm
How about some love for PantherTalk.com?
The story broke on our front page. What do you think Doug? A little credit? A mention?

Kelton hill is a good kid, I coached him for years, I am sure when all the smoke has cleared and the media has their final say we will all know the truth. And most of the times it is no where near as bad as they make it. I am sure kelton will learn from this little incident and be a better person for it, he deserves a second chance.
July 20th, 2011

This should be an interesting season to say the least

"Be assured that Kelton won't repeat his mistakes. I don't know the particulars of the crime, but i do know his family. Rest assured that his father, who is a police detective, will handle this situation and make sure that this will never happen with Kelton again."
Well it certainly warms my heart that he will only be a felony burglar this once.
July 21st, 2011
4:19 am
CoachB said: " I am sure kelton will learn from this little incident and be a better person for it, he deserves a second chance."
Well coachB in this case it is a crime called breaking and entering and felony burglary (it used to called grand theft). It's not a "little incident". It is a major crime that normally brings jail time in the area of a couple years if you are a first offender. More if you have done this before.
July 21st, 2011
7:20 am
WOW!!, Just found out about this. Since we don't know all the facts I am slow to judge. Hopefully this was some kind of "prank gone wrong". Obviously it was not interpreted that way. I wish the issue could have been solved without Fulton county getting involved. Not sure how you value a used laptop @ 1,300 but possible. If you look at Craigslist it's hard to find any for more than $1,000
July 21st, 2011
12:07 pm
What's next for Kelton Hill?? JAIL! Kind of simple! A prank??? maybe in ghetto Atlanta, not in anywhere else in the state.
July 21st, 2011
12:16 pm
A second chance?? WTH, he had a free college education.. How many folks get that opportunity.
A little incident?? WTH, Robbery is is not a little incident.
You are "scared" for him to leave the team..WTH, I would not want my kid to play along side of a thief, much less share a locker room with him. What kind of trust is that??
The problem is that we have become tolerant of crime. That is why the Atlanta news is full of murders, stealing, and cheating. Most transfers come with some sort of baggage. You take a chance when you give somebody another chance. Better fill out Ga State's roster with a pencil and a big eraser because the door seems to be swinging both ways.
July 21st, 2011
3:36 pm
For everybody on this site who has chosen to condem this kid for making a bad decision, who gives you the right to play God, one day your time will come when your son or daughter will make a bad decesion and for every finger you point at this kid, seven more will be pointed right back at you and your child. Stop judging this kid if you don't know his character.
July 21st, 2011
4:50 pm
Having having had kids who have made mistakes before, I can speak to this with credibility. I do not know his character, you are right, but thieves make poor team members. The courts will deal with this situation with evidence and adjudication. Coach must preserve the integrity of the team and program. As was stated before, too many good kids not accused of a crime wish they had been given that opportunity to play.
July 21st, 2011
7:07 pm
July 23rd, 2011
7:19 am
@ Coach B. Thank you for being the voice of reason. When we welcome these kids into the pride they become part of our family. I would challenge anyone out there to say that their own familly has not had some troubles. Where I come from we do not turn our back on our family but come together to get through tough times. I wish only the best for Kelton, and hope he knows their are many panther alumni out there that only wish the best for him and that are praying that he get's through this.

There are 6 different clips - each clip has the normal speed and then there is the slowed down version right after, followed by the next clip.
I have gotten countless pictures of orbs both inside and out. And this october I decided to try and film some at night with night vision, like I had seen others do. And this is what I got...
And for the doubters: get over it1 We are not all liars and fakes. This is what it is. Nothing was maniputed. I was freaking sleeping and left the camera running. Its real whatever they are.

lol, there are 6 different clips silly, ha. think about it and watch it again- each clip has the normal speed and then there is the slowed down version right after, followed by the next clip
Sceptical November 7, 2008 12:40:33 AM CET
I dont doubt your sincerity, but if you were sleeping did your nighttime visitors change the camera angles for you, I DONT MEAN TO SOUND, WELL MEAN, but it has been proven that \'orbs\' are insects fluff and dust, im not saying your a liar and a fake, just that well we all need to believe in something i suppose for some people its a god, others its aliens. i dont know what you think these orbs are, spirits perhaps?

The first full weekend of October was a deadly one in Afghanistan, but the families of the fallen won't get financial help from the Military until the budget battle ends.
Deployed troops are in the midst of fighting season overseas, but the financial gridlock in Washington has $100,000 death gratuity payments on hold.
"My children have nobody to depend on but me," says Army Specialist and single mother of five Holli Sroka.
She calls the death benefits a "safety blanket."
"God forbid if I lost my life, I would want to make sure that there is something there that's going to take care of them," Holli said.
The money is usually paid within 24 hours of death to help families get through the initial hardship of losing an income.
But during the shutdown, finance offices are only paying basic pay and allowances.
"We are driving on as far as our casualty operations, we're still continuing with the military funeral honors that we send out, we're still processing all the casualty cases, as normal," said Marlean Druce, Installation Adjutant General at Fort Hood.
The House of Representatives is drafting a bill to pay grieving families and expects to take it to a vote on Wednesday.
Separation Pay is also delayed by the shutdown.
Tuesday was Specialist John McKinnon's last day in the Army, but he won't get his separation check until Congress has a budget for it.
"And interviews and jobs I had back home in Massachusetts, I had to call and put that on hold," said John.
If he had that money, John and his wife would already be moving their large family.
"When it comes to traveling across the country, I have two kids, plus both my parents, my dependents, it costs a lot of money to move all my household goods," he said.
About 2,200 soldiers in-process and out-process at Fort Hood each month, many of them now in a holding pattern.
"We just kind of gotta stick it out here, hope for the best, luckily I have a little bit of reserved money," said John.

Please help our friends out at Property Management Software Guide with their research on the adoption of green practices by apartment owners and property managers. We would greatly appreciate you taking their short 7 question survey to analyze trends in green renovation among apartment owners and property managers. Thanks for your help!
How green are apartment owners and property managers?Written by Brandon G. on December 21st, 2010
Deep Green Tidal Kites: The Newest Underwater Green Energy InitiativeWritten by Sarah on November 21st, 2010
Deep Green has resulted in several successful tests that Minesto say suggest that tidal kite technology could increase tidal power by eighty percent. In theory, these kites can operate in deep water where low tidal velocities make ineffective other, more traditional forms of tidal energy platforms.
Essentially, the Deep Green tidal kites will be tethered to the ocean floor and, using kinetic energy and automatic rudders, will fly in figure eights with the oceanic tides. Because water is eight hundred times as dense as air, these kites technically could produce eight hundred times the energy as wind turbines. Eventually, tidal kite farms could significantly increase green energy across the world if Minesto is successful.
So, what's the next step? Well, the company plans to tether a prototype kite off the coast of Ireland in 2011, presuming all the tests run smoothly for the remainder of 2010 . This plan comes on the heels of the company's having received funding from a Saab, Midroc New Technology, and BGA Invest, in addition to other private investors. Barring any problems, the company will then put a test farm off the coast of Ireland in 2012 and connect it to the Northern Ireland grid. Chief Executive of Minesto, Anders Jansson, hopes to eventually expand service to all of Ireland.
The example of Minesto and companies like it suggest that the oceans will certainly be the next frontier in green energy research and development. We have already seen other projects take shape, such as wave power generators and other tidal generators. All that remains for Minesto's continued success is that the company must receive approval from the Department of the Environment in Northern Ireland, and it must also deal with the challenge of adapting the system into a commercially viable one.
But, if we know anything about Saab's past success in aeronautics and automobile technology, we can expect to see this new venture swim, rather than sink.
For more information, watch Minesto's video on the Deep Green system here.

Google: Feeling Lucky with Investments in Alternative EnergyWritten by Liz on May 20th, 2010
Since its founding in 1998, Google has become much more than a basic online search engine. It has become a worldwide brand, Google Inc. The company boasts a variety of products and services, dealing with and extending beyond the Internet. Examples of their products include Gmail, Google Earth, and the Android line of smartphones. Along with their impressive list of convenient web services and fun gadgets, Google has also recently invested in an experimental highspeed internet project, Google Fiber. According to Rick Needham, the Green Business Operations Manager of the company, Google Fiber will provide an internet connection to one lucky community in the U.S. (ranging from 50,000 to 500,000 individual homes and businesses) at an astounding speed of one gigabit per second, roughly 100 times faster than the average Internet connection most Americans have access to. Madison is one of the lucky cities being considered for the project.
As one of the most rapidly growing businesses in the world, Google needs a tremendous amount of energy to power their various enterprises. On April 30, Google Inc. purchased two wind farms in the plains of North Dakota. According to Google's official blog, the company calls this significant investment their "first direct investment in a utility-scale renewable energy project."
According to the website Alternative Energy News, Google's $38.8 million dollar investment in these two windfarms will yield 169.5 megawatts of energy, which can power up to 55,000 homes (which is also the minimum target group for Google Fiber). Google claims that "the turbines can continuously adjust the individual blade pitch angles to achieve optimal efficiency and use larger blades with 15 percent more swept area than earlier generations, allowing capture of even more wind energy for each turbine." In addition to the high caliber output of energy, the state of the art technology these turbines run on provides a record low-cost sources of renewable energy.
Through Google.org, the philanthropic branch of the company, the company has announced that they plan on pushing for further reliance on renewable energy for future large-scale projects. Alternative Energy News reports that Google Inc. has indicated to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, or FERC, that it will help buy and sell electricity on the wholesale market. Needham confirms Google Inc.'s intentions to invest further in clean energy by stating: "Smart capital includes not only these early-stage company investments, but also dedicated funding for utility-scale projects. To tackle this need, we've been looking at investments in renewable energy projects, like the one we just signed, that can accelerate the deployment of the latest clean energy technology while providing attractive returns to Google and more capital for developers to build additional projects." Google has already followed through on this promise by investing in companies, such as BrightSource Energy and eSource, that focus on developing clean energy technologies.
Google is not only a pioneer of Internet related technologies–the company acts as a strong example for other large companies to follow in the journey towards reliance on clean energy.

Ronald Reagan once said conservatism was like a three-legged stool, combining economic, foreign policy, and social conservatives. But with the rise of the tea party and libertarian elements in the Republican Party, does this stool still exist?
A panel of opinion leaders will discuss the future of American conservatism: To attract voters in changing times, some politicians and political analysts say that the Republican Party should put less emphasis on social issues. But others say that Republicans have lost recent national and statewide contests because they have not stuck to a set of conservative principles. Can the Republican Party fuse these differing views?

The Filmmaker is a Traveller: Notes on Mauro Santini
Gianluca Pulsoni
We have lived in our own shade, isolated, not very sociable, enjoying each others' thoughts. In the midst of the complacent and superficial crowd we felt lost. We looked for personality in everything; in every work, painting or poem, we looked for a personal note. We maintained that the masters, the geniuses, were creators who, every one of them, had created a world out of many pieces and we rejected the followers, the impotent ones, whose metier it is to here and there steal a few scraps of originality.
Do you realise that we were revolutionary without knowing it?
-E. Zola to P. Cézanne. Paris, 20 May, 1866
Giornaliero di città e passanti (2008)
These words written by the French writer, Émile Zola, to the French painter, Paul Cézanne, are probably a useful help in revealing the ethics of the man behind some of most brilliant contemporary films made in Italy, Mauro Santini. Both artist and craftsman, like a few other contemporary Italian filmmakers, his body of work seems strictly related to the meaning of being independent in making cinema nowadays, especially for those who are currently based in Italy: such independence is a status at once globally experienced as work and radically translated as viewpoint, a condition comparable to the wanderlust of an eternal foreigner, constantly on the move towards other borders and lands, always alone and always alive, conscious of the difficulties to be faced but always open to any possible digression, suggestion, improvisation.
Mauro Santini (Fano, 1965) had a traditional artistic education and his interests were immediately directed towards figurative painting, which he actively practiced. Later, the personal discovery of abstract and conceptual art led him to prefer photography, especially once his studies ended: a sort of necessary step to get familiar with techniques needed in embracing the Super 8 film format, just a year before the coming of Hi8 video. Obviously, his increasing curiosity towards matters of technology did not hinder him from continuing to visit art exhibitions or from thinking about possible connections between painted and filmed images:
I remember in a very particular way an exhibition I visited in Venice when I was younger, it was at Ca' Pesaro, it was a Paul Klee's show, featuring his minimal paintings. I remember well, it impressed me greatly. I was completely shocked by the sizes of those works and think now that my works done during those years, minimal videos and films, both in length and scale of production, can be related to that. I believe this form has influenced me, somehow. (1)
Aside from the study of suitable formats, painting has also been decisive in shaping his cinematic language. He openly declares the influence of two great painters, the German Gerhard Richter and the French Nicolas De Staël, undoubtedly different in style but recognizable as great contemporary masters. Two models to face images in depth: Richter for his 'adaptation' towards the heterogeneous indeterminacy of reality; De Staël for his 'inspiration' towards the empathic abstraction of intimacy.
These tendencies are confirmed by analyzing Santini's most important works: the astonishing series entitled Videodiari (2001/2005), consisting of many videos, often selected by several prestigious film festivals (their titles are: Di ritorno; Dietro I vetri; Da lontano, which was awarded in the Spazio Italia section of the Torino Film Festival in 2002; Fermo del tempo; Petite mémoire; Da qui, sopra il mare; Flòr da Baixa); his first feature film, Flòr da Baixa (2006); Un jour à Marseille (2006), which played at Annecy, Turin and at DocLisboa; the series called Giornaliero di città e passanti (2008) dedicated to the cities of Marseille, Lisbon and Madrid; and the short Cosa che fugge (2008). (2)
Therefore, is his cinema an 'artistic' practice? Yes and no: yes, if you consider the term 'artistic' as a key factor in his methodological research and a way to appreciate his pictorial attitude in making images; no, if you mean a filmmaking totally dependent on painting or visual arts in general, absorbed by them, merged with them, as though they were the original effort and cinema a sort of void, technological extension of them. What remains clear in Santini's works is the centrality and autonomy of film language.
Confirmation of such a statement can be found in the inserts in his works on the cities he has been filming for years in his travels between Europe and America, and also in his 'video-diaries' series, simultaneously travelogues and meditations which deconstruct both image and the function of a traditional 'diary'. Let's examine some examples in detail.
To film a city from an experimental point of view: watching Santini's Flòr da Baixa, it occurred to me that this 'direction' is a possible leitmotiv in analyzing his shots dedicated to urban landscapes and scenes, and also, as a further theme requiring an additional understanding of the adjective 'experimental', the recollection of a sort of pioneering laboratory work.
In Flòr da Baixa, the space-time continuum seems to flow to a vague past tense. This film displays fragments of several cities, all involved in a dreamy and poetic itinerary, all framed by a cinematic eye totally based on a personal research into something missing: maybe a plot or a drama; maybe a logic or connection with the sphere of emotions or, more simply, an image, the right one. From Lisbon to Lisbon, passing through black and savage flashes of Rio de Janeiro, aseptic urban areas of Marseille, isolated spaces of Taranto, the film's movement defines a circle which embraces two parallel and wandering bodies, one visible and the other invisible, whose glances will find each other once back at the starting point, Lisbon, and the guesthouse where everything took place, 'Flòr da Baixa'.
In such a movie of 'intimate travels', it is hard to establish a distinction between documentary and fiction. In fact, it is not only hard but useless, as it seems more reasonable to consider the film's footage, framework and language according to the specific strategies applied in defining its vision. This leads to the questions: How to film a city? And how to film it experimentally?
Un jour à Marseille (2006)
The subjectivity of Santini is the subjectivity of a traveler, or rather the subjectivity of someone who crosses the borders that clearly divide identity and otherness, both in time and space. As 'conceptual character', a traveler is the opposite of a tourist, which is the pose of an ego whose existence deceives majorities by telling them our world has always been made up of two parts: your own side, a microclimate to build personalities, and, on the other side, a monolith to screen identities. The experience of traveling, on the other hand, works out the dialectic between us and them by configuring both poles as parts of a single, long-term process: thus, it seems possible to affirm that when you travel, you are rewriting the maps you are going through. Strength of geography, which reveals limitations and relativities in its surface geometry; strength of autonomy, which leads one to look at and transfigure all the unrecorded details into private visions: to travel brings subjectivity towards a new, creative dimension, where one's own body is tangible and one's own mind is open, totally receptive; where everything is visualized and experienced as possible.
Santini films the cities in Flòr da Baixa by achieving three different and progressive operations: the choice of images of anonymous zones from his urban landscapes; the juxtaposition of these fragments in ephemeral frameworks displaying their natures as non-places; their manipulation in iconic signs and epiphanies. This third passage gathers and summarizes the others, but primarily, it is where the art of Santini reveals its science and more specifically, its techniques, based on a work on the body of light and the deconstruction of viewpoints.
Light has always been the source and substance of images, from painting to more modern and contemporary forms of visual art. Santini does not attempt to be an exception to this, as he seems to conceive this movie and his other works, pure laboratories of light, as strictly related to an idea of creative manipulation which outlines and emphasizes the real and surreal unreality of his images, visions conceived as fluctuating memories. And here, lighting is the 'philosopher's stone', that which brings life to the surface and makes these fragments of vision living moments: as if witnessing an alchemical rite, its modulations define a scale of released intensities which seem to re-frame the whole recorded world, first its forms and then its objects, towards a new, transfiguring and shifting experience. It is, at the same time, both concrete in its resonating materialism and abstract, or just mental, in its progressive withdrawing from any kind of documentary reference. The nature of such a materialism can also remind one of what the prominent German film theorist, Rudolf Arnheim (3), claimed to be the specificity of 'film as art', an autonomy of language explained and inspired by a Materialtheorie, that is:
A theory meant to show that artistic and scientific descriptions of reality are cast in molds that derive not so much from the subject matter itself as from the properties of the medium - or Material - employed.
More precisely, something based on a different understanding.
Fermo del tempo (2003)
According to which even the most elementary processes of vision do not produce mechanical recordings of the outer world but organize sensory raw material creatively according to principles of simplicity, regularity, and balance, which govern the receptor mechanism.
And that leads to a new notion:
That the work of art, too, is not simply an imitation or selective duplication of reality but a translation of observed characteristics into the forms of a given medium.
According to its nature, light is body and rhythm, the minimal measurement unit of space-time. Its variations constantly fill and void spaces, sculpt and nullify bodies, arrest movements and cause them to flow. All these features seem within the possibilities offered by film practice but not by other visual arts such as painting, sculpture or photography, whose static structures could hardly encompass such a complete spectrum of changes.
The motion picture specializes in presenting events. It shows changes in time. This preference is explained by the nature of the medium. A motion picture in itself is an event: it looks different every moment, whereas there is no such temporal progress in a painting or sculpture. Motion being one of its outstanding properties, film is required by its own aesthetic law to use and interpret motion.
Santini with Flòr da Baixa proves his closeness to this theme of the uniqueness of cinematic language in using and interpreting motion.
His feature film is the event of a transformation of his own experiences through using schemes and patterns of motions already lived, both physically and mentally (the itineraries through the cities, the memories of those passages), to interpret them as something different, an immemorial and unfinished quest for otherness (the two souls, all through the movie). A quest that is led by the movement of light, whose manipulation tests visions and durations as culturally constructed: mysterious map puzzles, where spatial margins seem the only landmarks in a world absorbed by flashes and shadows; altered paces through which daily time definitively blows up to merge itself into a more complex structure, meditative and chimerical.
It is interesting to study the deconstruction of viewpoints in Santini's works as his approach seems to be analogous to some pictorial methodologies. To explore this, I will consider the inserts of to the city of Marseille in Flòr da Baixa, Un jour à Marseille and in his latest work, Giornaliero di città e passanti. (4)
In order to deconstruct a viewpoint, first you need to build one up. Marseille is seen by a cinematic eye that observes what we can probably call daily life, with the passers-by, couples, daily workers and urban landscapes of this French city, with its streets, its buildings, its cafes and so on: they are framed like stolen fragments, whose images are filmed as full shots and in sequences that are edited as long takes. The results reveal a juxtaposed, heterogeneous and random series of views of Marseille, footage displayed by using different axes to set the camera.
This material, which can be conceived as a sort of personal archive by the filmmaker, seems not to produce any narrative; on the contrary, his composition, which emphasizes the unfinished nature of the observation, evokes a pictorial mechanics typical of the 19th century, defined with the French term concrétion, used "to describe how any perception always blends with a preceding or remembered perception" (5): like painting, the cinematic approach to this technique clearly remains a method referable to the significant role of time; unlike painting, such an approach enacts a different depiction of time in visual images. That becomes evident in comparing Santini's way of filming a city to what remarkable French painters like Claude Monet and Paul Cézanne did in their paintings, as in Monet's Rouen Cathedral series and Cézanne's series dedicated to Mont Sainte-Victoire. Both in painting and filming, concrétion always functions as an accumulation and persistence of signs, but whereas in the examples of these painters the main aim seems to outline 'the difference in the sameness' (light variations in the same image over a limited period of time), Santini's work sets itself in counterpart, striving to depict 'the sameness in the difference' through finding and framing a common measurement unit in each view.
What is a diary? According to Merriam-Webster:
A record of events, transactions, or observations kept daily or at frequent intervals: JOURNAL; especially: a daily record of personal activities, reflections, or feelings.
A book intended or used for a diary.
Basically, these definitions emphasize what can be summed up as its meaning and function: to keep thoughts of various types as secrets and to report the existence of a personal space for private matters to others. But what about visual diaries?
Flòr da Baixa (2006)
Undoubtedly, from writing to filming, the 'personal function' of this form persists, unlike the paradigm of secrecy, as it is commonly known that written language has the potential to hide several levels of codes while audiovisual images can hardly hide an equal amount. Their nature conducts to a plan of visible immanence, to other and immediate mechanical aims, like the covering of spaces, the depiction of times, the revelation of lives, even in the genre that appears close to what a diary represents in written form: the home movie. However, this difference seems less marked once you make the same comparison with the use of the diary before Romanticism. Then it was mostly conceived as synonymous with travel accounts, often scientific and therefore shared as though its notes were in public domain. In this case, handwriting and filming reveal resemblances in approaching continuous phenomena.
In Videodiari, Santini offers his ideas on the matter. He reprises the pre-Romantic use of diary, which is related to journey, by executing these works as unusual travelogues of his own wanderlust and experiences. Travelogues which combine aspects of various genres, from documentary to experimental cinema, and different outlooks, from the point of view closest to home (i.e., Dietro ai vetri) to much more exotic places (i.e. Lisbon in Flòr da Baixa). At the same time, Santini pursues, within his images and where the operation seems possible, visual echoes of that unfinished mystery of life in writing, given by the discontinuous nature of any reported record or reflection and evoked by the overlapping of written codes that written diaries usually have. In other words, he works to outline in a personal cinematic language traces of that logic of secrecy that the diary embodies from Romanticism onwards as the main symbol of a human inwardness. To lock up, not to touch, something that you consider to exist but not available for all. The ideal subjective handwriting: always personal, always selective. Like a mirror...
This is the case for the 'mirrors of history'. To be sure, they hide their relation to practices that are no longer historical but now political and commercial; but in using a past in order to deny the present that they repeat, they set apart something foreign to current social relations, they produce secrets within language; their games designate a withdrawal that can be told in legends inverting the normal channels of research and superseding them. Mirror writing is serious because of what it does - it states something other through the inversion of code of practice; it is illusory only insofar as, not realizing what it is doing, one takes its secret to be what it puts into language, and not what it subtracts from it. (6)
Private and secret, that is the diary in the modern age, whose deciphering is clearly possible but only under certain circumstances. In order to restore a code of secrecy in images, without pretending to insert a grammatical substance into any possible variation of visual language, I think Santini conceptually conceives diary as one of De Certeau's mirrors of history. This allows him to share two expressed subjects via the same medium: the author, whose personal side seems given to the diary form with a marked and poetical style and a miscellaneous mixture of genres; and history, the other side of the mirror, the nebulous and towering side, whose codes lie within Santini's visions as hidden frameworks, as interstices, appearances, phantoms: metaphorically speaking and by using a literary analogy, 'the knocking on the door in Macbeth'. In this sense, the visual diary is less a blank space to fill with recordings of secrets to constantly keep from most people and more a 'conceptual device', able to produce a sophisticated dialectic between secrecy and openness.
Furthermore, always to emphasize the double relationship between man and history, it is important to briefly summarize how Santini re-frames cinematic language in these works, by reducing the role of narrative and increasing the material resonance of language; by stressing discontinuity as rhythm and flattening the images' aspects of simulation. So these diaries seem to be personal diaries without any classic subject involved, as the representations of author's ego and history's echo lie on the margins of each flux of images whose dynamic, from reality to fantasy, reveals different levels of vision, progressively complex or, I would rather say, whose dynamic outlines the insight of a gaze into the ephemeral limits of time-space, where any distinction begins and ends, even that between seen and unseen, said and unsaid.
Images travel as the man does. That is why you need to be a traveler, to control their intimate nature, as Mauro Santini does.

This recipe was quick & easy to make. My husband and son both loved it. I think next time, I'll try grilling the fish. I didn't have coriander so I used a little fresh basil. I later learned that cilantro is also a good substitute for coriander. With a little feta cheese, the tomato mixture could easily be converted to a salad or side dish. This was a great recipe and I will make it again.

Jude Law
As part of a joke referencing his Sexiest Man Alive Title and six theatrical releases of 2004, host Chris Rock pondered at the 2005 Oscars ceremony: "Who is Jude Law?" Well, he's the son of schoolteachers named after the Thomas Hardy novel who spent his teen years enrolled in Britain's National Youth Music Theatre and eventually dropped out of high school to work on the soap Families. He bared all on Broadway in 1995's Indiscretions, which earned him a Tony nomination. On his first big film break, 1994's Shopping, he met Sadie Frost who wed the Road to Perdition villain in 1997 and gave birth to son Rafferty in 1996, daughter Iris in 200 and son Rudy in 2002. Law was nominated for two Oscars for his supporting role in 2000's The Talented Mr. Ripley and for the lead in 2004's Cold Mountain. While remaking Alfie and apparently falling for his costar Sienna Miller, Law finalized his messy divorce with Frost in 2003. By December of the following year, Law proposed to Miller but their happiness was short-lived as his affair with his children's nanny Daisy Wright became public knowledge in the summer of 2005. It iwasn't the last time Law's talent was overshadowed by controversy. In 2007, he was arrested (and later cleared) for allegedly scuffling with a photographer and in 2009, while he was earning rave reviews for doing Hamlet on Broadway, 24-year-old model Samantha Burke, whom he briefly dated while filming Sherlock Holmes, delivered his daughter Sophia. That same year, he and Miller gave love another try, but the rekindling only lasted until February 2011.
