Thanks to MasterChef contestant Matthew Orsini for this recipe.'
One onion finely chopped
One bag of spinach washed
¼ cup of whole milk ricotta cheese strained in a cheese cloth (will explain later)
Either a 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg or one half of one nutmeg finely grated
One lemon juiced
¼ cup grated parmesan
Zest of one lemon
One small bag of pine nuts
One clove crushed garlic
Black pepper
One Egg Beaten or warm water
One stick of butter
Olive oil
6 sage leaves finally chopped
One lemon juiced
1/4 cup of semolina flour
1 ¼ cup of all-purpose flour
Three eggs beaten
The first thing to do is take the ¼ cup of ricotta cheese and wrap it in a cheese cloth. Tie it over the sink and let strain. Once you have all these ingredients separated out you will want to go ahead and turn the heat up to medium on one pan lightly coated in olive oil. Once it has heated enough, add the chopped onion. You will want to make sure the onions are fully caramelized before you pull them. Go ahead and heat up another pan on the side. I love to use a kitchen aid for the next step, however it is not necessary. You will want to mix about 2 teaspoons of salt with the flour and set aside. Check your onions and stir. The onions should be caramelized by now, so you will want to pull them and set aside. Add olive oil, black pepper, the crushed garlic, and grated nutmeg to the other heated up pan. Once the garlic begins to caramelize add in the spinach and the juice of one squeezed lemon. Grind some fresh salt over and stir to incorporate. Sautee the spinach fully and add a little more nutmeg, the lemon zest, for freshness, and black pepper on top of the spinach. Remember the most important thing is to TASTE AND TASTE! Always adjust as needed. If it needs salt add more. Go ahead and remove the spinach from the pan and fully strain. Set aside to cool. After setting your spinach aside sauté your pine nuts in a small pan of slightly less than a quarter stick of butter until they have reached a golden light brown color. Pine nuts overcook easily so it's important to keep an eye on them. Pull them and set aside. Finely chop your cooled spinach and add in your onions and pine nuts. Taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Set aside to cool. Place in a bowl, cover and cool in the refrigerator until ready for use.
If using a kitchen aid with the paddle attachment, set the speed to a two and add in your beaten eggs slowly. If you are doing this by hand create a well and work the eggs with a fork from the inside out, until the dough is ready to work with your hands. Wait until the flour and eggs have fully incorporated. If it is too dry add a little warm water and on the other end if it is too wet add more flour. You will want it to be just wet enough that you can knead it and roll it into a ball; however the flour should still be slightly grainy that you will knead it into a ball. Once you are done making the dough place it on a floured cutting board to bring together by hand. Pasta does not like cold surfaces, so cutting board works great. Knead the dough out using the palm of your hand working it from inward/out. Work into a ball, cover with plastic wrap and place in fridge or on the cutting board until ready for use. Go ahead and set up the pasta attachment on the kitchen aid.
Remove the ricotta cheese from the cheese cloth and add in the grated parmesan cheese to it. Incorporate the spinach mix and stir and taste. Cover and set back in fridge.
Work the dough out by hand until its ready to place through the pasta machine. Starting on a one setting, roll it, fold it; roll it again, etc…, until it gets as thin as possible. Right now you are activating the gluten. After you have repeated this step about 7 times on a setting one you will send it through each other setting once time through until you have rolled it out at a 6. Halfway through the stretching process you will probably want to cut it in half since your sheet of pasta will be extremely long. You are looking to have nice clean silky sheets. Cut each sheet in half. Place the ricotta mix in a pastry bag and squeeze a little bit of the mix about an inch apart on the sheet. Take a pastry brush and brush your other beaten egg or egg wash lightly around the ricotta mix. Fold the other half of the sheet over and press all the air out. This is very important as you will want to make sure there is no possibility the ravioli can explode in the water. Cut your ravioli and set on a floured surface.
Start your pot of salted boiling water and the brown butter sauce by adding the butter and a little olive oil over medium high heat, to a separate pan. Once it starts to brown add in the other half of the lemon juice for acidity and honey for sweetness. Toss in your sage leaves to crisp up. Once you hear that bubbling popping sound your sauce has fully browned. Turn the heat slightly down. On the side I like to fry some sage in a little olive oil for garnish as well.
Once you reach a boil carefully add in your ravioli. These will cook in about 1 ½ to 2 minutes as they are fresh. Remove the ravioli and add in to the sauce to sauté. The ravioli will start to brown a little so remove once fully sautéed. The flavors of this dish come together perfectly as you will get that crispy outside texture on the ravioli with the creamy burst of flavors on the inside. The honey adds a little sweetness to a normally savory dish. Garnish with the fried sage. Enjoy and Ciao!

Fermentation Goodness!
Apple season is upon us! I bought enough local organic apples to juice and make 4 liters (1 gallon) of hard dry cider. Very simple indeed but can take up to 6 months to make. I started with 1 liter (what you see here) to experiment with and it looked so good that I bit the bullet and made 3 more. Currently I have the other 3 open fermenting in jars covered with cheese cloth. I added some spices too; black peppercorns, fresh ginger, cardamon pods and clove. Probably going to let them ferment collecting wild yeasts for a few weeks then add to the carboy with my 1st liter and give it a couple months to ferment with an airlock. By Christmas I should have them bottled and ready for storage to age another month or two. I am hoping for a lightly spiced dry, bubbly hard cider. Yipee! I spent roughly 35$ on in season, local, organic apples so that I could ferment raw cider that I juiced myself. Next week I will be buying a gallon of juice from the same local organic orchard that has been UV treated to see if there is a difference in fermentation quality or taste. The gallon is only 10$ so definitely worth a shot since $ is sparse these days :)

The robber
It was a warm summer evening. Jennifer was working as cashier at her bookshop. Customers came in every few minutes, keeping her at work, yet she didn't feel busy. She glanced on her watch from time to time. She had always wanted to work in a bookshop because she loved books, yet this job had turned out to be so incredibly boring that she hated it. When she applied, she was looking forward to presenting books to interested customers, yet her intellectual passion had been shut down entirely. The customers were merely interested in buying books they had to read in order to please a job or somebody else. Most were pupils. They glanced at their schoolbooks with hatred, Jennifer saw that they despised them.
Nobody cared about the books Jennifer would recommend to read. She had actively promoted them in the beginning, but customers had left annoyed. Swiftly, her boss, whom she wanted to impress with her passion, had ordered her to stay quiet and "just do your job".
Jennifer had to work her to finance her studies and no other shop wanted her. She was studying literature, so no other shop had an interest into her and the remaining bookshops had already all required workers.
Her boss had moved into her office, so Jennifer took the chance to glance at her watch when a masked robber came in, threatened her with his gun and asked for the money. At first, Jennifer was paralysed, then, driven by the robbers screams, she jotted the money into his bag, trembling. Her heart was racing. She couldn't think any more. She was merely working mechanically.
"Quickly!" the robber screamed.
Jennifer threw the money inside.
The robber reached for the filled back when a customer opened the door, triggering the bell. The robber twitched in shock and a gunshot burst through the room. The customer screamed and ran away, the robber glanced at Jennifer, hesitated, then grabbed the bag and disappeared.
Jennifer stood there in shock. She felt terribly. She wasn't sure what had just happened.
Then she noticed the pain rising from her chest. In slow motion, she looked down at it, touched it with her hands. Warm blood ran over her hands.
Jennifer broke down.
She was too shocked to scream to help.
She reached for the phone but failed to grab it. She faded into darkness.

Judaica Wedding Registry: Menorahs
If you are planning to register for wedding gifts, you might consider registering for a menorah. Unlike an ice cream maker or formal china, you know a menorah will come in handy at least eight days a year! Menorahs also make wonderful family heirlooms. Whether your taste runs traditional or modern, there is a menorah out there to suit everyone's style. ModernTribe.com, Amazon.com, GalleryJudaica.com, JewishMuseumShops.com, and Judaism.com are just some of the online shops where you can register for menorahs and other Judaica. Here are some of my favorite picks:
1) This classic modern menorah is a reproduction of one that is part of the permanent collection in The Jewish Museum. Because it is fashioned of argentum pewter, you don't have to worry about it tarnishing! $250 at The Jewish Museum Shops
2) Nice Jewish Boy Jonathan Adler designed this Relief Menorah – a simple form accented with rippling texture and a matte white glaze. $98 at ModernTribe.com
3) This hand polished menorah by Nambé is stunning enough to be used as a centerpiece or candelabra year round. $160 at Amazon.com
4) This peace sign menorah is the most affordable of the bunch, and reminds us what is truly important during the holidays. $14 at ModernTribe.com
5) This pewter baroque style menorah by Quest is hand-painted with enamel and adorned with Austrian crystals. Gorgeous! $270 at GalleryJudaica.com
6) At first look, this Olive Branch Menorah by artisan Michael Aram does not appear to be a menorah at all, but at closer inspection you'll realize that it is designed for the Festival of Lights! $210 at The Jewish Museum Shops
1 comment
These are stunning Menorah designs.

Lunch Meat and Pregnancy
Is it true that pregnant women should avoid lunch meat and cold cuts?
It is true—sorry to break it to all you deli lovers. There are two reasons that doctors tend to be concerned about pregnant women eating lunch meat. First, lunch meat has been known to be contaminated with listeria, a food-borne pathogen that can be life-threatening. Listeria can cause stillbirth, premature birth, birth defects, and spontaneous miscarriage.
My recommendation is to avoid eating deli meats and cold cuts as much as possible during pregnancy. Certain meats like hot dogs, ham, bologna, dry sausage and other cold, ready-to-eat meats are especially prone to listeria contamination. If they are an important part of your diet that you simply can't give up, you can reduce the risk of listeria by reheating the meat until it is steaming.
The other concern is that prepackaged meat usually contains high levels of sodium nitrate. Unfortunately, few studies have examined the effect of nitrates during pregnancy. However, research has demonstrated that nitrates can decrease the blood's ability to effectively carry oxygen in infants, especially those under the age of four months. With these two concerns in mind, I recommend that my patients avoid lunch meat when possible.

It's a hot new sport called foot golf and its popularity is spreading in California.
In just 10 weeks, 2,000 foot golfers have gotten in their kicks at the first northern California golf course to offer up the sport.
The concept of the game is very similar to golf just with a bigger ball and your leg instead of a club. Those who play say a similar skill set is needed as well.
"Just like golf- the putting, the short game is where you need to be making your best strokes. It's all about touch," said Karl Van Dessel, Haggin Oaks Foot Golf Coordinator.
Dessel says area soccer teams are also using foot golf to fine-tune their skills.

Happy New Years to all our buds and pals out there!
Here is a little song idea,
(Use Headphones!)
I've seen so many people coming from the northern fields
I hear some many people talk between their freezing teeth
I play your game, I read your face, I know what you can do
And I'm not one to know what kind of crew you grew up with
You're such a drag
I'm not your friend
And I'm not sure you thought we could be friends one day
but I don't want to be like you
Yeah that's not me
I'll be the man in the black suit walking behind you
Nobody wants to see the mess you made
Nobody wants to be a handsome wreck
It's true
Yeah it's true
Nobody wants to shake a bloody hand
Nobody wants to hear you brag all day
It's true
Yeah it's true
I'll be the man in the black suit walking behind you

A character is presented as an archetypal Funny Foreigner with a ridiculous accent, extreme clothes, and a tendency towards weird food. They may even be an evil foreign rival to our local boy. However, the audience gets to see them more privately, and they are shown as a normal local, or at least as seemingly normal. They'll explain that it's all an act that makes them seem exotic, or puts people off guard, or it gets them laid. They may resent the act, and the things they have to do for it. Sometimes, this trick is done with someone who is from another country, but is actually pretty sane; they simply play it up. At other times, this trope is used to justify an actor's appalling accent. In case you couldn't figure it out, the "faux" is pronounced "foe". So the trope is pronounced "foe-reigner".

You gotta laugh just a little watching a 14-year-old radio talk show host blast homosexuality as a choice people make -- "no matter what Lady Gaga says."
Caiden Cowger says the homosexuality "problem" is out of control in his state of West Virginia. 30 kids in his county -- many of whom grew up with him -- have chosen to be gay.
Cowger says Obama and Biden are both personally responsible for turning people gay.
However you feel about the issue, the kid is doing West Virginia no favors -- he struggles with the English language during his rant, and for the most part loses the grammar war.
someone needs to teach this kid that the "gays" are "born that way" ... so are pedophiles, granny rapists, fecal freaks, people into bestiality ,and all the other deviant heathens .... If that fecal freak sees a piece of doo doo , they have to eat it , they were "born that way " ; ) ... kisses
Why does anyone/everyone who speaks out against homosexuality get a media blast? What the heck happened to freedom of speech in America? This is PC gone amuck. The last time I checked you don't have to respect someone else's morals and values as long as they aren't hurting anyone else..isn't that what the gays say?
It is this kind of "Christian" that makes real Christians look awful. There are times when I get angry when someone is judgmental about my religion but then I see stuff like this and I understand all the hate. Just want to say, as a Christian, that I believe that God loves his sons and daughters any which way they come. Even when we've committed sins (like something jail worthy) and truly repent and feel sorry for what we've done, he will forgive and guide. Being gay is absolutely not a determining factor of whether or not you are a good person. It's how nice of a heart you have, basically. And, before everyone starts quoting bible scriptures at me saying "well, what about this line of the bible where it says ______", or "you're God said this ____". I'll remind you that God and/or Jesus didn't pen the Bible, and if they could say something now, watching this hate speech from a kid (who was obviously listening a little too hard to his hateful parents), he would say "Please, don't talk that way about my sons and daughters. I love you all." Thank you.
someone needs to teach this kid that the "gays" are born that way ... so are pedophiles, granny rapists, fecal freaks, people into bestiality ,and all the other deviant heathens .... If that fecal freak sees a piece of doo doo , they have to eat it , they were "born that way " ; ) ... kisses
Furthermore, speaking of choice. I've heard stories of some of the disgusting behaviors that was common in gay establishment pre HIV/AIDS that curiously never made the headlines. I've been in gay bars where sh!t was going down that would turn your stomach but was nothing to the patrons. Mean Harvey et al. would attempt to contend that their orientation is perfectly normal and should be taught in the schools accepted by the church [synagogue are exempt, of course] and the universe should embrace DIVERSITY. Folks, don't drink the Kool-Aid.
HA!!! I can't wait for his apology in 5 years when he comes out of the closet.
Nevermind that the 14 year-old pictured above looks gayer than gay. The squeakiest wheels almost need the most grease! What a tool. He looks like a twink on the down low. It'd be so much more honest of these gay-hating Bible thumbers to just outright cut to the chase and say, "Hey, you know what? I wanna pitch (or catch) for the other team, and Jesus says it's cool!" Lady Gaga endorses this viewpoint, incidentally ;) .
Is it the same kind of good laugh we have reading TMZ stories that are supposed to be written by educated, professional journalists?
I guess he hasn't seen the study that showed homophobia is being perpetrated by mostly closeted gay males. Its only a matter of time till he "chooses" to be gay. ----article below
Pee brain shut the **** up..................good job ur parent is doing what the hell do u know they shoved this nonsense in ur empty skull i will bet they probably notice u are gay so they are feeding u to hate gay SHUT UP
If this young man was educated and not indoctrinated into the myopic view of the cult of Christianity, then perhaps his ability to convey coherent thoughts would not sound like a rambling toddler that likes the new word he discovered, homosexual. Learn about the world you live in that has included gay people since the beginning in animals as well as humans. This kid is Bryan Fischer 100% brainwashed teaching hate and violence to gay people daily from behind the curtain of a microphone, just like the Wizard of Oz.
freedom of speech should not mean people are allowed to hurt people. there is also freedom to bear arms, so i guess i can shoot you if i don't like what you have to say. i live in WV and i'm gay. i've had a horrible life because of outside things related to that and would never choose to be this way. i look forward to moving out of this backwards state as soon as i finish college.
I am a gay man and I don't have a problem with this...the reason being is that although I don't agree with what this kid is saying, this is the United States and he has a right to say what he wants. I can't go around asking for acceptance and tolerance but on the other hand say "you can't feel that way" or "you can't say that" ... I'll let God judge me, not society. Don't bash this kid for saying what he believes just hope that this kid eventually realizes that he was wrong.
The new Rush Limbaugh.
Second Opinion: I do look at both sides. I also listen to both sides and I know what I believe, and that's the end of it. However I have noticed that TMZ lately has reported on pastors, children, this kid.. other vids of them voicing out their (absurd) beliefs, when all they are doing is giving them a platform for hate. I do NOT agree with this kid, but I do believe he has a right to say what comes from his mouth... as offensive as it may be. I have noticed that gay people get overly defensive and offended- when they should just ignore this crap. You cannot make everyone "love gay people" it just wont happen- so there is no reason for even back-lashing at the absurdity of this video, or this kids words. I listen to talk radio- where old school people talk about the sins of homosexuality- and I just roll my eyes; but it is there platform, and I listen because I want to know their view. Whether it wrong or not, it's their right to voice an opinion. Not everyone is tree-hugging, hippie loving, Prop-8, people... Like I said, I am very PRO - GAY RIGHTS, but that doesn't mean I have the right to shove MY beliefs down someones throat. I hear all sides.. absorb it, then decide for myself. I do not bully others for their beliefs.

These terms are important for you to know when making your diamond buying decisions. You should also keep in mind that every diamond is as individual and unique as the person wearing it! Though the Four C's are constant, the appearance of each diamond is not?just as with people? there are no two exactly alike.

Diamond History
The Greek word "Adamas" means unconquerable and indestructible. This is the origin of the word Diamond. It is one of the most indestructible natural formations known to man. From this word and from the depths of the earth is derived The Diamond. Read More
The 4 C's of Diamonds
1. Color - In the chaos of extreme temperature and pressure that first created diamonds, traces of elements such as nitrogen and boron could have been incorporated into the diamond's atomic structure. This is the source of the tincture.
The first quality grade of a diamond to be judged is its color grade. Diamond can cover the entire spectrum of colors but the majority of diamond colors are yellow and brown. Read More
Professional Definitions
Brilliant Cut - A beautifully cut round diamond that has 58 facets.
Carbon - The element that diamonds are made from.
Cutlet - The bottom facet of the diamond, this is usually very small.
Dispersion - This is the ability to create spectral colors as light exits the diamond.
Eye-clean - Refers to a diamond that to the naked naked eye has no visible inclusions or blemishes. Read More

The term "Estate Jewelry" by definition simply refers to any previously owned piece of jewelry. Estate Jewelry is not necessarily old. For jewelry to be considered antique it must be at least 100 years old. You may find Vintage Jewelry in an estate collection, the term Vintage often refers to older pieces made after the Retro Modern period of the 1940's through the 1980's, but also includes certain antique pieces. Vintage jewelry reflects the most attractive or distinct designs of a period and may be made of plastics, base metals, gold plating, imitation pearls, and glass gems.
The "Estate Jewelry" collection at Wisnosky Jewelers will vary from week to week sometimes even day to day. While we are not antique dealers, you will find a variety of previously owned nicer pieces. Carefully selected items are placed in our estate case - these may include jewelry from earlier this decade, vintage pieces and antique jewelry. You are welcome to browse our selection and ask any questions you wish.

Caring for estate jewelry:
Fine jewelry will last generations with gentle care and periodic maintenance.
Keep each piece of jewelry in its own box or compartment.
It is helpful to store each piece in its own soft pouch to protect it from elements such as dust.
Put your jewelry on last when you're getting ready to go out. Take it off first when you return.
Do not wear your jewelry when using household cleaners.
Remove your jewelry when doing physical activities.
Never place vintage or antique jewelry under running water.
Have a professional jeweler check the settings for loose stones from time to time.
Have a professional jeweler clean the jewelry when needed.
Estate Jewelry Notes of Interest:
Diamonds in antique estate jewelry often have the traditional old-mine cut or rose cut. The settings for these cuts show less of the diamond than settings for modern cuts.
Older jewelry is often found in 12-, 22- or 23-karat gold. Newly manufactured jewelry must be a minimum of 10-karat gold to be sold as gold jewelry in the United States, older estate pieces may be crafted of 9-karat gold. Contemporary jewelry is usually made of 10-, 14- or 18-karat gold.
Having authentication papers, an original box, price tag, or designer's logoed jewelry pouch can double the value of a piece.
Vintage Designer Costume Jewelry has a distinctive unique look that doesn't appear to be mass produced.
Brand names to look for in Vintage Jewelry include:
Sarah Coventry
What to watch for when buying Estate Jewelry:
Missing Stones
Obvious repair work such as soldering

Do you get enough sleep at night? With our fast-paced modern world, chances are getting 8 hours of rest isn't the biggest priority. Sleep is the one thing everyone wants but just can't seem to get enough of.
"People have difficulty imagining how lack of sleep can affect them but sleeping six hours a night for 14 days is equivalent to not sleeping at all for 48 hours." Said Dr. Fady Jamous, a pulmonologist with Avera Medical Group Pulmonology and Sleep Medicine.
For many people their busy lifestyle is to blame for lack of sleep, for others it's a deeper issue.
"Sleep disorders are a large family of problems that include things like insomnia, abnormal behavior at night like sleep talking or sleepwalking, but the majority of sleep disorders we see are related to breathing problems at night." Said Dr. Jamous.
Probably the most common of these disorders is obstructive sleep apnea. This is where a person actually stops breathing, several times throughout the night.
"If you quit breathing more than five times an hour and that gives a diagnosis of sleep apnea." Said Dr. Jamous.
These pauses, or apneas, are caused by the airway collapsing which in turn causes loud snoring. It may sound scary that a person can actually stop breathing while they sleep, but your body will always wake you up when it needs a breath. The real danger is what can happen if you let the condition go untreated.
"Sleep apnea is when your body starts to feel the stress and that's when you start developing high blood pressure, sometimes rhythm problems in the heart, and sometimes even strokes and heart failure." Said Dr. Jamous.
Without oxygen your brain and body are suffering every night. So if you wake up with headaches, or are fighting to stay awake throughout the day, or maybe your partner has complained about your snoring, you may want to schedule a sleep study.
Because it's a respiratory issue, smoking is a contributing factor, but being overweight can also put extra strain on your sleep habits.
"If you're obese meaning your weight is higher than a BMI of 30 there's a fairly good chance that you do have underlying sleep disorders or disturbances and we would recommend to be evaluated." Said Dr. Jamous.
Knowing is half the battle, and getting a good night's rest is as easy as wearing a CPAP mask. It may seem strange having to sleep with a mask on but this device uses pressure to keep your airway open. So you can fall into and remain in a deep and healthy sleep.
"We don't know why we need sleep but we know what happens if we don't sleep." Said Dr. Jamous.
Sleep apnea affects an estimated 18 million people in the United States alone. Many may not realize they have the condition which is why it's all the more important to get checked out. For more information about sleep apnea just call 877-AT-AVERA.

Many say STAAR testing is an unfair way to evaluate students across the state. A group is working to develop new ways to asses student achievement in Texas.Several school districts making up the Texas High Performance Schools Consortium are meeting Thursday to discuss new ways to evaluate Texas students that doesn't involve STAAR testing. The new idea uses other tests already employed by some school districts. Reading, math and science would be checked for elementary and middle school students, but not every year for every grade.For high school students, measures of post-secondary readiness could include PSAT, SAT, and other national tests that some districts already provide for all students. Many districts across the state aren't performing well on these standardized tests. More than 25,000 AISD students had to retake one or more sections this past school year of the STAAR test.Those who oppose STAAR testing say the test alone is what causes many students to not pass.

'Mr. Jones' review: the cabin-in-the-woods horror flick takes a mindtrip detour
Movies like the Paranormal Activity series have helped cement found footage films as a horror subgenre in their own right, though the technique is usually used as a shortcut: putting cameras into characters' hands offers an immediate sense of danger while jettisoning any visual ambitions. Mr. Jones, which premiered here at the Tribeca Film Festival, tries to subvert that expectation. An indie horror flick with a twist of David Lynch's Lost Highway, it tweaks the formula to explore the blurred line between nightmares and reality — even though it doesn't quite stick the landing.

PLAYERS: Kyrie Irving
TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers
TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers
Why is Kyrie Irving playing, coming off yet another injury, with only two weeks left in the season? This is absurd. He is the Cleveland Cavaliers' franchise player and their hope for a better tomorrow, as the 20 year old is already one of the top 10-15 players in the NBA and the player they are going to be building around for the next 10+ years. Yes, Irving scored over 30 points for the Cleveland Cavaliers in his return, but he has already missed time throughout the season for a number of injuries, which are his achilles heel. Allow him to take the rest of the season off, make sure he is completely healthy and make sure he doesn't reinjure himself, as there is absolutely no reason for him to play, with them out of the playoffs and with nothing to play for. This has nothing to do with tanking, for those who see this as the perfect time for the Cavs to continue losing, to try and have the best chance at the first overall pick, as they are currently holding the NBA's fourth worst reco...

In the twilight of 2012, moments before the clock was to strike midnight and proclaim the time of death of another year, I sank into a very deep very hot bath. Django Reinhardt's Nuages oozed from an old boom box and mingled with the lavender-ylang ylang scented steam filling the room. Sandalwood candles flickered luridly, shadow puppets performing St. Vitus Dance across the room. The water temperature made my head light and heart race. I imagined this is what it must be like to patronize an opium den. Arms splayed across the back of the tub, calves draped over the front, watching shadows cavort across the walls, I inhaled deeply. The flames stilled. I exhaled. The razor sat untouched on the window sill, on the other side of which a precipitous symphony of fireworks, foil whistles and drunken regards rang out. I took a generous gulp of cheap champagne and toasted the gorgeous perfection of being in the moment.
Who just stops working and writing for a year? Who just gets up and walks away like that? Without even going to India or all the National Parks? Is this actually something people do all the time but never speak of because except for fetuses our worth as humans is dictated by our capacity for production? Or am I a trailblazer madly proclaiming with a sweep of my hand, "All of this, I won't participate in it!" Is there a Nobel Prize for passive resistance?
Darling, I'm afraid it doesn't work that way…
Well, there being no prizes for romanticism, I may as well admit that I did participate in a few things. One need not go to India or all the National Parks, after all, to find meaning, to have revelations, to feel connected, to expand horizons, to push limits. One could accomplish such feats by embarking upon a genealogical quest with estranged relatives, or submit to three hours of PTSD therapy every week, or feed the homeless, or read so voraciously the only person who ever calls anymore is from the public library, or speak to a customer service representative from an insurance company. I mean, I hear India is quite lovely, but I can't believe a country with a caste of untouchables has more enlightenment in the water than Chicago. Even if it does, they don't have enough potable water for the people already there. That trippy feeling of being one with the universe may not be enlightenment. It may be the neurological effects of dehydration. As for National Parks, my sweet intoxicating blood, hysterical allergies and global warming have conspired to ensure there is always a hazmat suit between me and All God's Creation. Hard to get excited about anything, let alone rocks and trees, when you've fainted from hypoglycemia because the last meal you had was a Power Bar, or when you are in a Benadryl induced coma. Alas, I fail to thrive in my own ecosystem. Perhaps my prize-deserving act of resistance is not my refusal to participate but my refusal to perish.
Yet I do worry that any description of my doings and whereabouts while on hiatus will be met with disappointment, like a postcard from a friend who's gone on a long romantic trip … to Disneyworld. I've not been hunkered down curing cancer, writing a novel or even fixing my credit. I don't even know how to describe what I've been doing. Conversations go like this: "So, what are you up to these days?" "Well, I've taken a bit of time off…" "Ok, but what are you doing?" "Oh, things. You know, just… (distractedly cranes neck and shouts to no one in particular, "Did you need help in the kitchen?")
Things. You know, just… :
~ Found my mother's recipes.
~ Made my mother's recipes.
~ Hiked up hills in Southern Missouri looking for 200 year old gravestones.
~ Sat in 100 degree heat wearing a plastic party supply store hat and sunglasses, sipping prepackaged margaritas from Quick-Trip, watching neighbor kids play in the Slip N Slide.
~ Got a serious concussion, golf ball sized mosquito bites and Borderline Personality diagnosis (oh don't worry there will be blogposts…)
~ Read Adam Levin and Sheila Heti and felt old, sentimental, alien.
~ Read Kate Zambreno and Caitlin Moran and felt fierce, sane, human.
~ Ate Korean BBQ. Puked Korean BBQ.
~ Ate fillet mignon. Puked fillet mignon.
~ Rode a motorcycle. Twice.
~ Went to see ballet. Twice.
~ Drank my first Sidecar.
~ Rode my first MegaBus.
~ Grieved the death of a 37 year old cousin.
~ Made fast friends with an 80 year old cousin.
~ Fired my shrink.
~ Fired another shrink.
~ Sat up all night listening to my Great Aunts tell stories of growing up during the Great Depression.
~ Sat on a cold bathroom floor, sobbing and yelling at invisible gods, parents, doctors, boys, self.
~ Canvassed Wisconsin. A lot. I love Wisconsin.
~ Went to the suburbs. Twice. I hate the suburbs.
~ Got very angry.
~ Got more confident.
~ Served meals to homeless people.
~ Found lodging for a Hurricane Sandy refugee.
~ Discovered I may be related to Rob Roy.
~ Decided I won't be defined by family (except maybe Rob Roy…)
~ Went to a casino. For the first and last time.
~ Went bowling. For the first and last time.
~ Tried to paint a blue office yellow.
~ Tried to die my black hair red.
~ Sought peace in museums, libraries, parks, kitchens.
~ Found peace in cemeteries, bars, country roads, kitchens.
~ Kept other people's plants and pets alive.
~ Kept myself alive.
It wasn't all easy, but it wasn't all shit, and most of all it certainly fucking wasn't any of it Disneyworld. Or India. Although I did manage to get dehydrated. And enlightened. And savor the gorgeous perfection of being in the moment.

versusetc asked you:
Hey Roman, your work is beautiful, love what you do. I'm wondering, do you have suggestions in how to make comics that don't rely on line so much as shape and color, like your recent piece for NYT?
Thanks, Riley! I love your work too, particularly the frog comic. I would normally answer this privately, but you raised an interesting question that I'm still figuring out myself.
I think color separation is the best way to force yourself out of line-centered thinking. I still make linear sketches, although my drawings are getting increasingly loose and trashy on porpoise. When I do things on paper, I usually ink the layers without any registration reference so there's an element of chaos introduced after I scan the bits and pieces. Afterwards, I often forget which one goes where, so I end up playing with shapes that don't necessarily work together. I feel, however, that all of it is still a development of the same general approach, so it would be nice to break off completely and try composing a color-separated picture without any preliminary sketches.
As for shape and color in general, regardless of the execution I think it's good to keep reducing everything as far as it can go. I guess it's all part of the permanent editing process: the fewer things you use, the more weight each one of them has. You know when you can't tell if it's a cat cleaning itself or a plastic bag swaying in the distance and your mind starts building connections that you wouldn't have if the cat/bag were closer—I'm going for something like that (at least in my personal work), a mix of exactitude and abstraction.

Sculpture and crating specialist, Gene Thompson, brings an extensive and varied background in the arts to Mana Art Center. Thompson has worked in a range of art media over the span of a half of a century and has been involved in art communities on both the West and East Coasts. He also frequently writes art commentary and contributes articles to Mana Log.
Q: You received a bachelor's in fine arts from California College of Arts and Crafts in 1963 and a master's in sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 1965. Can you tell us about the arts climate in the early '60s? Who were some of the artists that influenced your work during that period?
A: I grew up in Oakland, so I was exposed to artists working in the Bay Area. A printmaker named George Miyasaki was one of my teachers. Another one of my mentors was Peter Voulkos, a sculptor who taught at UC Berkeley. He had a studio in Berkeley called the Spaghetti Factory, and many artists hung out there drinking, playing poker and snooker, talking about art, pouring bronze, firing clay/ceramics and making big sculptures. Peter took me under his wing, and I spent two or three days at a time at the studio. We were notorious for partying and working hard. Tio Giambruni and Manuel Neri were friends of Peter's and they would hang out there, also.
Q: From 1965 – 1975, you developed the sculpture program at California State University and taught sculpture, drawing and ceramics courses. Please tell us about some of your experiences as a teacher.
A: I taught a Materials class where students made 8 to 12 inch cubes in 15 different materials including bronze casting, welded steel, clay slab, plaster and plexiglass. You can have the greatest mind in the world, but if you don't know about materials, you might not be able to build what you have conceived. One of my students pantomimed a cube and others made cubes out of cake, charcoal, jello and yarn. At the end of the course, I asked students to place their cubes in the environment and to document these pieces. Students learned to translate ideas into materials, and materials germinated ideas.
Q: When did you move from the West to the East? What was that transition like for you?
A: The Vietnam War ended in 1975. The same year, I got tenure and a sabbatical to come to New York. Instead of taking a sabbatical, I decided to give up a tenured position and just move to New York. A colleague and I drove to New York in a moving van with a sign that read, "New York or Bust." At a gas station in Pennsylvania, an attendant pointed to the highway and said, "See all those vans? Those vans are going west."
Soho was a dump. It was a junk heap. But moving to New York was the best move for my soul and my intellect. California was about the landscape and open space. New York was about thinking and survival. All these people in small spaces trying to figure out solutions to problems. I took the leap from academia to insert myself into the real art world. The wonderful art world. The scary and disastrous art world. The new, freaky, blundering and enlightening art world.
One of my first jobs was art handling for Nancy Hoffman Gallery. I also moved art for Sidney Janis, George Segal, Paula Cooper, Andre Emmerich, Blum/Helman, Loius K. Meisel, Leo Castelli, among others. Working for artists, collectors and galleries introduced me to New York in a positive way and inspired changes in my own work.
Q: Your website reflects bodies of work in sculpture, watercolor, drawing, photography and video. What do you consider to be some of your most important works? Are you currently working on any personal projects?
A: One of my most important pieces is called American Elm, a graphite and sepia watercolor. It consists of 18 panels and took four and a half months to complete. I painted it looking through binoculars in Prattsville, New York near the Catskills. The dying elm captured my attention because it was standing in the middle of a field–a stately and royal tree.
Another significant piece is Double Helix which is a balloon constructed out of mylar in the shape of a rocket. It is 8-feet in diameter and 85-feet long, and was filled with helium on site. The rocket was launched on the Fourth of July in 1980 at Nassau County Museum of Art in Long Island.
I always try to make work that responds to my environments. Now, because I am working at Mana, I build pieces constructed from interesting things I find in the warehouse like cardboard inserts and Ethafoam. What we throw out is as important as what we take in. As my father said, "A weed is an unwanted plant." I try to transform garbage, or something not considered, into something formally interesting, transforming shapes from their original utilitarian function and making them more compelling to look at. My work is about material, abstraction and transformation.
Q: When did you start working at Mana Art Center? What are some of the bigger projects you've been involved with here?
A: I started working at Mana in December 2009. I was working on and off for Michael Gitlin in SoHo and as a conservator for the Robert Wilson / Byrd Hoffman Foundation. Michael introduced me to his friend, Eugene Lemay, a year before I actually started here. Eugene was looking for people, and I came in for an interview. I was hired to help get things rolling. I totally support Eugene's vision. Eugene has a passion for the arts, and we all encourage him as he does us.
I was hired to develop a crate shop, but I spent my first few months working with Jake Ehrlund on the basic planning of the sixth floor and its exhibition space. The crate shop got going in mid-2010 as there was a higher demand for crating. I cleaned out my studio at 55 Crosby in Soho and brought my tools here.
Q: Please tell us something about the process of receiving a work of art in your shop, building a crate for it and preparing it to be shipped.
A: A work will come in, say a painting or a sculpture. The client will either want it to be crated for storage here or want it shipped domestically or internationally. There are several types of crates: standard, travel, shell and museum. Most crates are standard wooden crates enclosed all the way around an item packed in Ethafoam. A travel or shell crate is a frame surrounding the work to protect it. A museum crate is a high-end crate made of waterproof plywood sealed with a gasket and steel-bolted closures. These crates have to be durable enough to be re-opened multiple times.
Q: What changes have you seen at Mana Art Center since you arrived and what else would you like to see happen here?
A: The changes have been incredible in such a short period of time. We have a gallery on the sixth floor equal to any gallery in Chelsea. Our climate controlled storage facility is designed with every consideration of the client in mind for the ultimate storage of their precious works of art. The design of the storage space is beautiful, a work of art in-of-itself. I look forward to seeing Eugene's vision further realized through a sculpture garden and educational programs. I'd like to see even more lectures by guest artists, museum curators, gallery owners and arts professionals. People of intellect, vision and inspiration. People are the leading force of creativity.
Q: A major survey of Photorealist paintings and sculptures, Our Own Directions: Works from the Loius K. and Susan P. Meisel Collection, opens at Mana Art Center on September 18. What are your thoughts about this exhibition?
A: A lot of artists who will be shown are artists who influenced the American art scene in the late '60s and early '70s. Photorealism is about America–objects in urban, suburban and rural landscapes. It started by projecting color transparent slides to canvas or paper, tracing and painting the image. Photorealism heightens our perception of the visual reality of these objects or scenes. It changes the way we look at the everyday.

Abstract. Huabei is a part of eastern China located between 32° N and 42° N latitude. Administratively it is a region including Beijing and Tianjin Municipalities, Hebei and Shanxi Provinces, and Inner-Mongolia Autonomous Region. Over the past decades, the region has experienced dramatic changes in air quality and climate, and has become a major focus of environmental research in China. Here we present a new inventory of air pollutant emissions in Huabei for the year 2003 developed as part of the project Influence of Pollution on Aerosols and Cloud Microphysics in North China (IPAC-NC).
Our estimates are based on the data from the statistical yearbooks of state and provinces as well as local districts including major sectors and activities of power generation, industrial energy consumption, industrial processing, civil energy consumption, crop straw burning, oil and solvent evaporation, manure, and motor vehicles. The emission factors are selected from a variety of literature and those from local measurements in China are used whenever available. The estimated total emissions in the Huabei administrative region in 2003 are 4.73 Tg SO2, 2.72 Tg NOx (in equivalent NO2), 1.77 Tg VOC, 24.14 Tg CO, 2.03 Tg NH3, 4.57 Tg PM10, 2.42 Tg PM2.5, 0.21 Tg EC, and 0.46 Tg OC.
For model convenience, we consider a larger Huabei region with Shandong, Henan and Liaoning Provinces included in our inventory. The estimated total emissions in the larger Huabei region in 2003 are: 9.55 Tg SO2, 5.27 Tg NOx (in equivalent NO2), 3.82 Tg VOC, 46.59 Tg CO, 5.36 Tg NH3, 10.74 Tg PM10, 5.62 Tg PM2.5, 0.41 Tg EC, and 0.99 Tg OC. The estimated emission rates are projected into grid cells at a horizontal resolution of 0.1° latitude by 0.1° longitude. Our gridded emission inventory consists of area sources, which are classified into industrial, civil, traffic, and straw burning sectors, and large industrial point sources, which include 345 sets of power plants, iron and steel plants, cement plants, and chemical plants.
The estimated regional NO2 emissions are about 2–3 % (administrative Huabei region) or 5 % (larger Huabei region) of the global anthropogenic NO2 emissions. We compare our inventory (IPAC-NC) with a global emission inventory EDGAR-CIRCE and an Asian emission inventory INTEX-B. While the total emissions in Huabei are comparable with each other, large differences up to a factor of 2–3 for local emissions in the areas such as the Beijing and Tianjin megacities are found. We expect that our inventory will provide more practical spatial distributions of air pollutant emissions in the Huabei region of China and can be applied for air pollution and chemistry research on this region in the future.

Last week, 1,600 women from all over Latin America came together to ask President Obama to ensure the implementation of the Cairo Program of Action.
Brave women and men at the Commission on Population and Development reminded governments that 15 years ago 179 nations committed to making the health and rights of women and young people central to global family planning policies.
While the final Commission on Population and Development Resolution presented some problematic language regarding adolescents, it spoke out strongly for women's reproductive freedom.
At the Commission on Population and Development, Norway and South Africa take strong stands on the importance of safe abortion in addressing maternal mortality rates.
Margaret Pollock, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Population, Refugees and Migration, Department of State and head of the U.S. delegation, delivered the much anticipated U.S. statement to the Commission on March 31.
Yesterday, the United Nations Commission on Population and Development convened for the 42nd time at UN headquarters here in New York. The Head of the US delegation, Margaret J. Pollack, announced the US's continuing support of the ICPD's goals, "most particularly universal access to sexual and reproductive health, and the protection and promotion of reproductive rights."
US makes strong statement for reproductive health at the UN; New York City speakout on women's health needs tonight; anti-choice legislation dies in Montana; sex ed reform, for the better?
Yesterday at the UN, the United States made a strong statement about the importance of comprehensive sexuality education and reproductive health services.
Not everyone present at the Commission on the Status of Women was advocating for sexual and reproductive health. Some right-wing organizations wanted to roll back progress on women's health.
Now that the US has reinstated funding for UNFPA, our country can retake the lead on international family planning at upcoming UN meetings on population and development.

Tonight's the Night1 Reviews
Becky becomes the beast.
This time Bobby wouldn't be here to hold Me back.
Darkness descended and I could feel the change coming on.
Looking in the mirror I saw My eyes turn red, My canines elongate, the nails on My fingers becomming sharp as daggers.
Sighing I looked at My reflection.
"You really should have accepted Me by now, after all, I am the real You. All in good time I guess. Now for My hunt" I grinned and raced to the door, unlocked it and stood shocked.
Eric was standing in My way- only He had changed.
"Don't You remember what happened? I MADE You this way"
"Why? why couldn't You have just left Me alone?"
"For the same reason You turned Your friend in the hospital- a kindred mate"
"You changed Me to be Your GIRLFRIEND" I shrieked angrily.
"Well You are quite beautiful- even without Your new gifts. How could I resist"
"Allow Me to show You Why You should have" I growled as I grabbed Him by the shirt and wrenched Him into My room.
At least that's what I had intended to do, instead I threw Him out of My window.
I growled and jumped out of My window and onto His non moving body.
His eyes snapped open and grinned.
"If You wanted another ride all You had to do was ask"
I screamed and attempted to slash His head off, but before I could He had pushed Me off and started running down the end of My street.
I snarled and raced after Him, and when I was within range I tackled Him.
"Wait! don't You want to know about Your powers?" Eric frantically cried, trying to buy Himself sometime.
"As far as I'm concerned, I'll learn about Them in My own time. I'll accept whatever fate has for Me now that it's cursed Me" I whispered as I slashed at Eric's neck, ripping His head off and digesting on His body.
It felt damn good to finally get revenge.
When I had finished eating I stood up, licked My lips and hads and paused.
Someone was watching Me.
I turned in the direction of the stare and found Frankie, decked out in red eyes, standing a foot away from Me.
"I thought You were still in hospital" I replied to His stare, suddenly aware of how far away from Me He was.
"So did I, but I had an urge to come and see You. That and I was hungry" He smirked.
"Want to grab a burger?" I asked.
"What about a person?" He replied suggestively.
"Sure" I whispered, as We walked down the street and into the night.
Hunting with Frankie was alot of fun, and I realised shortly after We had found an area filled with walking meals that Frankie and I had the same taste in food.
After I finished devouring a business man I sat down and watched Frankie finish Him off.
After Frankie had finished He sat down next to Me.
"So do You know what We are?" Frankie finally asked.
"I'm guessing vampire. Or some kind of creature that devours humans to live. Whatever We are We can still hang out during the day so that's a good thing"
"Who was that Guy You hacked to bits?"
"He was the one who created Me. It was just a few weeks ago when He turned Me" I replied softly.
"Wow. I would have thought longer considering Your ass kicking abilities" Frankie grinned.
"How come Your not freaked out by this?" I asked.
"I've always been a little bit weird, and now I have the abilities to prove it"
"Why are You so calm talking to Me after You strangled Me? and after I attempted to kill You?" I asked.
"When I first saw You I liked You. Alot. but then You had such an attitude of hate towards Me I felt like I should hate You too. The strangling was Me frustrated that I liked You so much but could never be in Your world, and now, I'm in a world that only You inhabit after trying to kill Me, so not only are We even, but We could give each other a chance- a fresh start- and see where it takes Us"
I thought for a moment.
"Alright" I replied, looking into His red eyes.
I paused, and realised just how much raw emotion can be seen in someone's red eyes.
Frankie was the first to look away and stood up.
"We better go home- but what are We going to do about the bodies?" Frankie asked.
"Please! people look at the bodies and think of animal attacks, just leave Them where They are" I replied as We walked back to My street, feeling glad that I wasn't a freak on My own anymore.

(07/03/12) - He's charged with abusing his girlfriend's son, 4-year-old Carnel Chamberlain, who was found dead under his Isabella County porch last week.
Anthony Bennett heads to federal court Tuesday.
But there is also a call to charge Carnel's mother.
More than 300 people have signed an online petition demanding the arrest of Jaimee Chamberlain.
The petition, which is on Change.org, accuses Chamberlain of knowing about her son's abuse, but not doing anything about it.

Earn your +1 before time runs out! Ensure your entry into the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon by volunteering now.
Two runners—one male, one female—will leave Boston this weekend $100,000 richer.
On Sunday, October 13, the Boston Athletic Association (BAA) holds the final stage of its 2013 Distance Medley, a three-race competition that kicked off in April with a 5K, continued in June with a 10K, and concludes with a half-marathon. Top prize money goes to the man and woman with the lowest combined time.
Some 7,500 runners, among them some notable elites, will take part in this, the 13th BAA Half-Marathon. It's a popular event: During registration in July, it took only 12 minutes for all available slots to disappear.
Among the men to watch are a trio of Kenyans: Stephen Sambu, who tops the Distance Medley leader board with a cumulative time of 41:53; Allan Kiprono, who trails by a mere 26 seconds and set a BAA Half-Marathon record last year with a time of 1:01:44; and Daniel Salel, runner-up at this year's Cherry Blossom Ten Mile Run in Washington, DC.
Also on hand will be Ethiopian stars Lelisa Desisa and Gebre Gebremariam, two of the top finishers at the 2013 Boston Marathon.
On the women's side, two Kenyans, Millicent Kuria and Alice Kumutai, will challenge New Zealand native Kim Smith for the Distance Medley purse. Based in nearby Providence, RI, Smith arrives in Beantown with a cumulative time of 48:50, but Kuria's only 71 seconds back, so the final standings are anything but set.
The women's field also includes last year's BAA Half runner-up, Ethiopia's Aheza Kiros; American Kristen Fryburg-Zaitz; and Danish Olympian Jess Draskau-Petersson—all of whom have half-marathon bests of 1:13:30 or faster.
The out-and-back race begins and ends at White Stadium in Franklin Park, located in Boston's Jamaica Plain and Dorchester neighborhoods. The top 10 finishers split a $38,400 purse not related to the Distance Medley, so even runners only signed up for this final leg stand to make some cash.
Of course, it's about more than just money. Per the BAA website, the event is geared toward "highlighting the beauty" of Boston's historic Emerald Necklace park system and "promoting health and fitness."

Green tea parfait and deep-fried lychees
It is essential to use green tea powder in this recipe. Green leaf tea is not an alternative as the leaves are designed to be infused and strained and will not give the intensity of colour or flavour required. The powder is available from specialty Asian food stores and supermarkets. Deep-fried mango and banana also go well with this parfait but lychees are the perfect combination.
Photo: Marco del Grande
- 500ml cream (one with 35% fat)
- 2 tbsp green tea powder
- 4 tbsp milk
- 150g egg whites (approx 5 eggs)
- 300g caster sugar
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 30ml vodka
- 1 1/2 cups plain flour
- 200ml beer, cold
- 18 lychees, peeled and seeds removed
- Extra caster sugar
Line a terrine mould, tray or container, approximately 30cm x 20cm, with cling film or baking paper. Whisk the cream to stiff peaks in a food mixer. Place cream in another bowl and refrigerate. Mix green tea powder and milk together to form a smooth paste. Whisk egg whites in mixer on low speed and continue to whisk.
Meanwhile, place sugar and water in a saucepan and stir to dissolve then place on a high heat and bring to the boil. Brush down saucepan sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystallising. Bring to 130C or hard ball stage (when a bit of the syrup mix forms a soft ball when placed in iced water). When sugar has reached this temperature, whisk egg whites at high speed, add lime juice and vodka to sugar and allow to boil again. Once the egg whites form medium peaks, add the hot sugar syrup and continue to whisk on high. Keep whisking until the whites have cooled, approx 5 minutes. Add green tea paste to egg white mixture and whisk to combine. Add 1/3 of the whipped cream and whisk to combine. Fold through remaining cream gently by hand with a spatula until smooth and completely combined. Pour into lined container and freeze overnight.
Preheat a deep fryer to 180C or bring a medium-sized saucepan, one-third filled with vegetable oil, to hot. Place 1 cup of flour in a bowl and add beer. Stir to combine. Batter should coat the back of a spoon well. Toss lychees in remaining flour to lightly coat. Place in batter and gently cover with batter and then place in fryer. Fry until golden brown. Remove onto paper towel and sprinkle with extra caster sugar to give a crust. Slice parfait into desired size and shape. Serve lychees on top.

Moulin Rouge proved to be one of Craig Armstrong's most high profile scoring projects to date. This film marked the second time Armstrong has worked with Romeo + Juliet director Baz Lurhmann. Armstrong co-produced and provided new arrangements of classic songs such as 'Your Song' and 'Nature Boy', as well as scoring music to accompany the romantic element of the storyline.
Some of the most beautiful music written by Armstrong is featured during the death scene at the end of the film. It's such a somber heart wrenching piece of music, which concludes with the introduction of Armstrong's arrangement of Nature Boy.
BAFTA awarded Craig Armstrong with The Anthony Asquith Award for Achievement in Film Music for his work on Moulin Rouge.
