Photography can be an important part of your life because of its ability to capture special moments. You need to do all of your research, so that you don't end up losing, messing up your photos, or missing important photo opportunities. There are some Some of the Highest Ranked Drones that Support 4k listed below to help you begin bettering your photography skills.
Make sure you taking lighting into account when you're taking your photos. Will there be shadows cast upon your subject? Is your subject squinting into the sun or other bright light? Try moving around to find the best angle in the lighting to get the best photo. Try taking your photos at different vantage points so that you can see what works best.
In order to produce the best and clearest photographs, you should use a tripod. A tripod allows you to stabilize the camera, so that your photos are in better focus. This is especially important if you are using a high-zoom lens or shooting at night, since small changes in the camera's position will result in major blurring.
Properly framing your subject can improve your photograph. You should zoom in on your main focal point to eliminate anything that takes away from your main subject. You will reduce clutter in your photos and prevent unwanted focal points.
You should think about getting a tripod. A good tripod offers you more stability and allows you to take your time composing your picture. Get a tripod that give you flexibility in height and positioning. Tripods are a useful tool for certain kinds of pictures only. Do not use a tripod if you are looking for a unusual angle.
An important photography tip to keep in mind is to always make sure there's a clear focal point in your photograph. Without a focal point, there won't be much there to keep the viewer's interest. Their eyes will just wander and they'll quickly move on to the next photograph.
When shooting landscapes, remember the rule of thirds which is to keep one-third or two-thirds of the image as the sky or the foreground. This will give the photo more depth and a more dramatic look. This is an easy tip for beginners to follow but will make a huge difference in the appearance of the photos.
Focus on a single subject in your photographs. Pictures will work best with a single, clear point of focus. Setting up a composition that involves multiple subjects can be difficult and can result in a disorganized, cluttered frame. Having a single subject also makes setting your zoom and other settings easier.
Throughout life, we are coached on making things centered and even. You can make your pictures look original by placing your main subject slightly on one side, rather than right in the center of your picture. Some cameras automatically focus on whatever appears in the middle of the field of view; disable such features in order to take off-center pictures. Use manual focus and then lock prior to clicking your photo.
Pay careful attention to backgrounds when composing your photographs. Jumbled, messy rooms can ruin an image and prevent your subject from standing out. Also, even the smallest item within range of the snapshot can be a distraction, taking away from the central focus. Always make a quick scan of the room or landscape, then remove items that will detract from an otherwise perfect shot.
Don't just rely on straight on flash from your camera for your shots. That only guarantees a burst of frontal lighting. Get a little more creative and try to create soft lighting conditions. How do you do that with flash, you ask? You can do that by bouncing your flash off of a wall or ceiling.
A random element that can give you unique photos is to change the lighting. There is an unlimited number of ways you can use light to change pictures. Using side lights can help to create silhouetting the subject to hide their features. It can also create back-lighting and mood. Using sync-flash can also help to create unique photographs.
Photography can be very rewarding, but it can also be a lot of work. Regardless, if you know what to do and how to take better photos, you can get the shots that you want and need. So, do yourself a favor by doing your research and applying the above tips to your photography skill set.

Just a rant. When my rig was in the shop earlier this week for a few days getting a spring tune-up, I decided to take a run Tuesday night to keep the blood flowing, as well as burning some calories for my diet. Wound up jogging 40 minutes and 4 1/2 miles, longest run I've ever done. I hate running, and I always get fallout for a day or two after.
First chance I got to ride was yesterday morning. Talk about a recovery ride I'm still getting better at walking down stairs, and still just not back to a full set of legs. With a century two weeks off, Sunday morning is our 75-mile final tuneup ride. Just hope I wake up that morning with some decent legs

Post subject: I knew you guys were somewhere!!!
Finally I've found the group of people I've been waiting for... Here's my deal: I graduated from the University of Kansas in December of 2005 with Bachelor's degrees in English and Spanish. All through college I never really knew what I "wanted to be" so I just ended up studying the things that I enjoyed. So I graduated last December, worked construction for about 4 months in Kansas before moving to Asheville, NC. I've been here for about 9 months now and I've been working at a moving company for about 6 of those months... and I hate it. About 3 or 4 weeks ago it finally dawned on me that I have no obligation or responsibility to "gain" the right to enjoy my life. It's my life. Why should I have to kill myself 40-50 hours a week for a paycheck that's barely covering my cost of living? I thought, "there's got to be a better way." I'm a musician and that's ultimately what I want to do with my life, pay or no pay. It is my passion, my life and my livelihood. But until I hit it big with a multiplatinum album (ha!), I'm forced to sacrifice my precious time and sweat to earn these people a few bucks. There's got to be a better way!!! And I feel like this site is getting me on my way, which is crazy because I just happened to stumble upon it the other night (anybody ever use stumbleupon??? Pretty cool). I was talking to my girlfriend about it this morning and she said to me "Don't worry, you'll find your way" and I responded "I think I'm starting to."
All through childhood I was just never really one of those "when grow up" type kids. I never really put my finger on the end all be all thing that I was gonna be when I got older, graduated from college and became successful like I was supposed to. Now I realize that maybe I somehow just snuck under the radar and never got conditioned to believe in the schooling-career-success-retirement-death flow chart that so many people (especially here in America) seem to have ingrained in their heads. I'm the youngest of six, and starting with my oldest brother and going down to the sister closest to me in age, there is a financial consultant, a doctor, a firefighter, a sign language interpreter and a nurse. At times I have felt like the lazy one of the family because I don't have a defined objective in mind, but now I feel like I have the oppurtunity to be the most successful one of all of them for having nerve to try and live my life for myself and not some 9-5 job with health insurance. Granted I'm not there yet and have a long way to go, but simply finding this website has given me such a jolt and has encouraged me to wake up from my nightmares and start living my dreams. If anybody would like to share ideas or simply chat it up, let me know. I love the ideas expressed here and plan on exploring them fully. Last but not least, THANKS to the creators of this site!!!

The underlying goal of the Alliance for Health Reform, from its origin and into the future, is affordable, quality health care and long-term care for all Americans. The enactment of the Affordable Care Act has changed the context and content of our educational offerings for opinion leaders, but not our aim.
We are at the beginning of what promises to be a lengthy period of adjustment to the health reform law, especially since there will be an added, intense focus on reducing federal spending on the Medicare and Medicaid health care programs. This is a period that will see continuing delivery system innovation and more vigorous efforts to prevent disease, improve the quality of care and gain greater value for each health care dollar spent. These changes will occur in ways that reflect, and in some cases go beyond, the changes made in the new law. We will continue to pursue our mission during this period by:
In all that we do, the board and staff of the Alliance remain committed to helping policy makers and others move toward an improved health care system that can deliver affordable, quality care for all.

Sonoma, city, Sonoma county, western California, U.S. It lies about 50 miles (80 km) northeast of San Francisco and 20 miles (30 km) southeast of Santa Rosa, in the Sonoma Valley (made famous by Jack London as the "Valley of the Moon"). It was founded in 1835 by military officer Mariano Guadalupe Vallejo (who had been sent to investigate the Russian outpost at Fort Ross, 50 miles north-northwest) at the site of the Mission San Francisco Solano, the last (1823) and most northerly of the 21 Franciscan California missions.

Enriching Commerce
Companies are taking an interactive tack on Web page design.Web page design has come a long way since the days of Netscape 3.0. But while the Web may look better, few would say it has gotten fundamentally better at displaying information, facilitating customer needs or garnering a strong return on investment. Some design and software companies are taking what may seem to be a common-sense strategybut not often put into actionand designing sites based on how customers interact with them.
Some of these companies are responding to the "X Internet," a strategy hatched in 2000 by Forrester Research Inc., of Cambridge, Mass., that predicts users will exchange executable programs over the Internet rather than static Web pages. For instance, Curl Corp., also of Cambridge, is shipping its Client/Web platform, consisting of a run-time environment and integrated development environment that creates interactive, real-time Web applications.

The 30 Weirdest 1-900 Numbers From The '80s
Ah, a time when shoulderpads were big, ties were skinny, and it was $2 for the first minute, $1.95 for the following.
1-900 numbers weren't just for sex lines and psychics (thought they were probably mostly used for that). They were a way of transmitting information for money in a pre-Internet world for things like jokes, music, games, and fan club information.
Sadly, after testing them out, these numbers are no longer in service.
1. Corey Haim and Corey Feldman's fan hotline:
Can't get enough Coreys in your life? Ready to pay for more hot Corey action? Here's the number for you.
2. He-Man hotline
A lot of these fan lines were aimed at kids. They'd always have a warning telling kids to ask their parents' permission before calling, but their profits must've all come from furtive dialing from kids who didn't realize it would show up on their phone bill.
3. Paula Abdul's line:
Straight up now tell me, do you really want to pay $0.99/minute?
4. Hulk Hogan's fan line
Back before you could listen to him complain about having sex on a full stomach in his sex tape, you could pay to listen to him tell you cool Hulk things. According to a factoid flagged "citation needed" on Wikipedia, the Hulkster's line was the most profitable 900 number from 1991-1993 on AT&T. Oh, brother.
5. Jessica Hahn's secret-revealing hotline
Jessica Hahn was involved in a sex scandal with televangelist Reverend Jim Bakker that was one of the biggest tabloid stories in 1987. She claimed it was non-consensual, he admitted to cheating on his wife, Tammy Faye, but that it was consensual. Her ad promises to tell you the "real story" of her encounter.
6. "Room Mates" sexytime hotline:
This isn't just your standard phone sex line, it's one that's angled specifically at the fantasy of two bored female roommates who want to talk dirty to you. Like if the characters on Girls ran a phone sex line.
7. Warrant's fan hotline
For Warrant fans. Yes, at one point, there were so many Warrant fans that they had a pay phone line. Now the singer is dead :(
8. A phone lottery game
The premise of this 900 number was that if you were the lucky caller, you could win prize money. Basically like a phone lottery ticket.
9. WWF Hotline
This number would give marks insider info on Wrestlemania. It's been replaced by something called a blog.
10. Grandpa Al Lewis from "The Munsters" fan hotline
The actor who played the grandfather on the classic sitcom The Munsters had a strange career where he made money on doing that same character for decades.
11. New Kids on the Block fan hotline:
Probably the greatest fan hotline of all time. The best part of this ad is when Joey McIntyre pretends to be talking on the phone in an over-the-top pantomime.
12. Jokes
Do you like to laugh? These chuckles ain't free, friend.
13. Tiffany's fan hotline:
Tiffany's fan hotline. Best line in the ad is when Tiffany manipulatively says, "you're my friend, so call me."
14. Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff's fan hotline
Best part is that they recorded a whole rap for this. Will Smith rapped for a 1-900 number.
15. Dial-An-Insult
The biggest insult is that you have to pay for this.
16. The Spin Magazine playlist
You could call up this number and pay to listen over the phone to a playlist of the music reviewed in that month's issue.
17. Video Game hints
Video game hints were a huge market for 1-900 numbers. Nintendo, Konami, Sega, and all the popular video game makers of the '80s had paid tip lines.
18. A "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey" game
It's unclear exactly what this game was, but it seems to be a trivia game where you could win prizes for correct answers. A truly bizarre movie marketing tie-in.
19. Kiss's hotline
This one isn't surprising, since we all know Kiss will do anything for money.
20. The Crying hotline
The weirdest of them all. A number you can call that will make you cry? "What makes people all over America break down and cry like this?" For $2/minute you can find out. Probably you look at your phone bill after calling this.
21. Freddy Krueger's phone line
The Call Freddy! line advertises "Freddy's favorite bedtime stories… [laughter]….deadtime stories."
22. Creep phone
With the creep phone, you can even leave your own scary message recording that will be played for others. Crowdsourcing your creeps.
23. Santa's hotline
Like the He-Man hotline, this was very clearly targeted at small children. They called it "Santa's special phone," where kids could tell Santa their toy wishlist and get a special message from Santa.
24. Rappin' Santa
This time Santa's rapping.
25. G.L.O.W. (Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling)'s hotline
Keep up with your favorite female wrestlers.
26. "Little Monsters" promotional contest hotline
This was a sweepstakes hotlines to promote the Fred Savage movie Little Monsters (which is awesome). The rap in the ad is absolute '80s perfection.
27. MC Hammer's fan hotline
If only he got more calls, he might have not gone broke.
28. L.A. nightclub guide hotline
The "party tracker" line would recommend nightclubs in the Los Angeles area for you based on what kind of club you were looking for. Why they used such a nerdy pitchman for this proto-Yelp, I have no idea.
29. Jose Canseco's hotline
According to a 1990 article in the L.A. Times, Jose had his own 1-900 line, hosted by the same company, Audio Communications, Inc, which hosted many of the other celebrity fan lines.
A clip of the ad exists within an old sports news show - at the 0:54 mark of this video you can see the ad where Jose promises, "if you want to know if I do steroids, how fast I drive, or why I was carrying that gun, call 1-900-234-JOSE."
30. U.F.O. hotline
For information about U.F.O.s, "we warn you – this may be the most shocking phone call you'll ever make!"
- Criticized previously for not forcefully speaking out, Donald Trump condemned anti-Semitism after bomb threats were reported at 11 Jewish centers.
- President Trump has named H.R. McMaster as his new national security adviser, replacing Michael Flynn who resigned last week.
- Milo Yiannopoulos's book has been canceled after he was accused of defending pedophilia.
- A girl's best friend showed up to her date in a fake mustache to spy on her and it's the definition of friendship goals 😎

Bay splash... new white hairs?
I noticed on my mare tonight when taking photos for her foaling thread that she had some distinct white hairs, almost a small patch, just above her tail. Could this be some kind of roaning or graying? She's currently 6 years old and this is the only place I've noticed this happening... photos below:
Entire mare, notice all white areas have fairly straight lines and cut-off points, no roaning on edges and no graying elsewhere.
White areas on her rump/tail area:
Any ideas?
To me, it looks like a coon tail associated with rabicano. It might just be minimally expressed. I know of an Arabian with rabicano that only has a coon tail, no white ticking on his body at all.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
We have 3 children together under the age of 18. Child support has already been enforced. My spouse knows I cant afford an attorney and I am sure he is going to deny trying to pay alimony.
You should consult an attorney to see if your spouse can be ordered to pay your attorney's fees.
Usually both parties' attorney fees are paid from marital assets - if he can afford an attorney, the judge will normally see that marital funds are used to pay your attorney too.
Ohio Revised Code Section 3105.73(A) says this: In an action for divorce, dissolution, legal separation, or annulment of marriage or an appeal of that action, a court may award all or part of reasonable attorney's fees and litigation expenses to either party if the court finds the award equitable. In determining whether an award is equitable, the court may consider the parties' marital assets and income, any award of temporary spousal support, the conduct of the parties, and any other relevant factors the court deems appropriate.
You can reach Martin D. Koop at (419) 447-2521 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Martin Koop is an attorney licensed to practice in the State of Ohio. Answering your questions does not create an attorney-client relationship between anybody and Martin D. Koop. You should speak with an attorney to whom you have provided all the facts in your case, before you take any actions or make any choices that may impact your legal rights. I am not obligated to answer subsequent emails or phone calls unless you have formally hired me. I wish you the best of luck with your legal matter.
You have options. First, the court can award you attorney fees to level the playing field. You can also talk to attorneys that do divorce work and see if you can find one that will work with you on fees. But see the attorneys, don't talk on the phone. You want to make sure you can establish a rapport with the attorney that ends up representing you. At least go in and talk though. Many attorneys offer a free initial consultation.
Attorneys on Avvo donate their time and your feedback is appreciated. Be sure to mark the "Best Answer" or Helpful" to your questions.
I know Legal Aid can't take every case, but it may be worth a try. Also, contact the local bar association. Some bar associations require members to do pro bono work in order to be on their referral lists. While it may be possible to have attorney fees awarded, the problem is that attorneys require their retainer fee upfront. Domestic attorneys cannot work on a contingency fee. Keep calling to see if any attorneys will offer payment plans. Contact family to see if they will loan you money for an attorney.

RADIUS, Rogues and Wireless Security Practices
Security on wireless LANs may have reached a par with wired networks, but that doesn't mean you can stop sweating the details.It would be tempting to dismiss Aruba Wireless Networks advisory this week about RADIUS vulnerabilities as old news if security werent so darned important. RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) servers have been used to authenticate users since virtually the dawn of the World Wide Web, and their weaknesses have been known for about as long. Theyve also been addressed in more ways than oneboth wired and wirelessly. Not surprisingly, Aruba happens to have a device that addresses the problem the company described. But Aruba Chief Technology Officer Merwyn Andrade said, "our intent in bringing this up was more to raise awareness around security best practices."

Automotive dealers, service stations, and repair shops are common sights across our nation. With over 100 million vehicles in operation across the United States today, and cars and trucks becoming more and more complicated each year, there has never been a better time to get involved in some part of the automotive sector. Those who own or manage dealerships, service stations, or repair shops understand that there are challenges involved with this line of work. Seasonality of work, a reliance on expensive tools, and high liability insurance costs can take a toll on the average automotive shop.
At eSmallbusinessloan.com, we successfully partner with automotive facilities to provide capital funding options that help address any level of volatility in the business. Our simple application process and quick funding options allow for any business owner to help manage the short to medium term financial issues that all seem to pop up at the least convenient time.

- Pay business expenses or taxes – anything time sensitive
- Expand the business by purchasing a new facility or renovating an existing building
- Purchase tools or equipment that will help increase the productivity of the business
- Buy inventory or supplies for your service station to ensure you're always ready for your customer
What you decide to do with your capital funding is up to you. It is your business, after all!
Our role is simple – we will partner with you to help ensure you meet your financial obligations. Our application process is quick and easy, and we are typically able to approve 85% of applicants. This figure is substantially higher than any bank or credit union, which means we are able to help more businesses across the country. Contact us today at 1-866-680-8971 for more information.

The schedule for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, which began yesterday and runs through Feb. 16, is jampacked with runway shows, parties, and events. But given Catherine Malandrino's recent Flea visit (not to mention Maggie Gyllenhaal, Padma Lakshmi, Ethan Hawke, and Ezra Koenig from Vampire Weekend making the rounds), don't be surprised if a few fashionistas steal away this weekend to see what's showing at Skylight One Hanson. And those who do will probably like what they see since many of the vintage looks offered at the Flea last weekend looked remarkably similar to those shown on the Spring 2012 Fashion Week runways last fall.
Peplums, which flounced down the catwalks of Jason Wu and Vera Wang among others, are in stock -- both from the '80s, when Thierry Mugler worked them into suits and dresses, and in their 1940s incarnations as the hip-grazing ruffled appendage to many a fitted jacket. And since it's hard to have one without the other, Flea vendors also brought to market the pencil skirts -- done up in leather by Versace and Miuccia Prada for their spring shows -- that usually go underneath.
Mad Men, which returns for its fifth season March 25, put the pencil skirt back on Flea shoppers' radar a few years ago, and vendors always keep a few in stock, mainly around Halloween when the search for Betty Draper costumes heats up. But since then, interest in the hip- and thigh-hugging skirt has grown. And that raises an interesting question: How does a vintage staple cross over from dress-up item onto store racks and onto people's backs?
Pop-culture phenoms help. But thanks also goes to designers who look to the past and markets like the Flea where flourishes like the peplum -- which had an earlier heyday in the 1800s as the topper for the bustle -- live to see another runway. It takes real vision to endow an old standard, like, say, a '50s cashmere sweater with have-to-have relevance for a new season. Valentino's Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli pulled that off beautifully by reimagining dowry lace as cotton canvas in some of their spring 2012 looks.
But as my grandmother, whose silk dressing gown I still wear, used to say, "Don't gild the lily" -- a caution I recalled upon noting the parallels between spring 2012 runway trends and what's on sale at the Flea now.

Looking back at all the outdoor trips we did last year, the stats look almost identical to the previous year's. Couple more overnight trips (10), thanks to the great weather. All in all, we hiked and paddled about 470 mi with 110,000 ft elevation gain on 59 trips.

What Do You Think?
This morning, SFMOMA unveiled new design details of the expanded building project. The expansion, as you likely know by now, is being designed by architectural firm Snøhetta in collaboration with SFMOMA, and this morning Craig Dykers, one of the principals of the firm, talked SFMOMA staff through a presentation of the new designs. There will be new education spaces, lots of light, and ground-level galleries and orientation spaces that will be free to the public. Craig will be presenting and discussing details of the new design for the first time in public tomorrow evening, in YBCA's Novellus theater. You'll also be able to watch his presentation LIVE online, HERE.
Have you got questions for the architects? Don't miss Rooftop TV: The Future Museum, a special interactive webcast conversation with Craig and some fantastic guests, Friday morning, 11:00 a.m.
Groundbreaking for the expansion is scheduled for summer 2013, with completion of new digs projected for early 2016. Here's the PRESS RELEASE. There's more detailed info on our expansion page. And here's a video!
Thom Donovan on Matt Mullican
Faced with the totally administered, a sort of mysticism becomes a last resort, a line of flight from countless mundane tyrannies of the contemporary soul. In Matt Mullican's Bulletin Boards series, the existence of everyday objects — a lamp, a sewer grate, a telephone, the banister of a staircase — is rendered both generic and numinous. Photographs of interior spaces (windows, doorframes, hallways) redouble the mental experience of looking. There is no whole, just a gathering of images whose haphazard constellation marks the continuous accretion of an archive. The Open remains open. The drafting or deliberate leaving-unfinished becomes a work regarding how worlds begin, how our "thrownness" (Heidegger) is accomplished. Liberated by distraction, we pay for this distraction with our lives. I don't know if I am subject or object of this work, what the POV of a bulletin board is. The photograph of a Pinocchio puppet (spiritual automaton) hails me/the viewer.
The corporate logo JCPenney signifies the arbitrary power of the name in a time of corporations, mass production, branding; the aura of its font, the curve of the letters — becoming artifactual. In a talk I saw Mullican give recently, he spoke of his persona under hypnosis ("That Person"), loving to draw the letters of the words Baby Love. Love of letters as letters, where an emotional identification with a world of things grasps us (human animals, consumers). The images of things before (or after) they have names become memento mori. Or reminders, as my wife likes to say, that we are "living corpses." We form a fellowship with the dead. The artist's fingers in the mouth of a corpse embody the burden of this fellowship. The photographs gathered and pinned here project a time in the future when we will seem even more strange to ourselves. Like a time capsule, hieroglyphs, artifacts — not just cosmology, but the future conditional tense of a speculative anthropology. The "self" or "I" or "That Person" or "Mullican" acting, at different points, as both the object and the subject of a cottage anthropological project.
The arbitrariness of the symbol = the arbitrariness of fashion, of design, of the built world = the arbitrariness of facts, of photographic light and perspective = the arbitrariness of "us," of relation. The practice of the artist induces Bardo, death in life, transmigration of the "soul at work." I am reminded of Charles Olson's phrase at the end of The Maximus Poems, "My wife my car my color myself." Insistent punctuation of the possessive pronoun "my." Though perhaps in Mullican's work, the totally subjective (the artist's investigation of dreams, and memories, and fantasies; his creation of a complex symbolic logic, as well as an architecture for symbolization) becomes objective where the "person" is exteriorized by compulsive output. The Bulletin Boards represent the rudimentary arrangements of this output, its substrate. Theyact as both archive and processor, open draft and mental map, invoking the subject who must become object-like in order to experience (their own) life.

The Lunch Break Times
Artist Sharon Lockhart reflects on the presence of the individual in the context of industrial labor through film, photography, and printed matter. For Lunch Break (2008), she spent a year at a naval shipbuilding plant in Maine, and the exhibition — now on view — examines the workers' activities during their time off from production. SFMOMA is also distributing Lockhart's newspaper, The Lunch Break Times, which relates stories about labor and lunch breaks. Every Wednesday, at NOON, we're posting one of the articles here.………………………….
Andrea Nguyen
Forget the PB&J, the BLT, and even the panini. We submit that the banh mi, invented in Vietnam, is the world's greatest sandwich. Wanting to learn more about banh mi, we went straight to the source: Andrea Nguyen. Andrea is a celebrated author and cooking teacher based in Northern California. A contributing editor to SAVEUR magazine, her work also appears in the Los Angeles Times. Her publications include Into the Vietnamese Kitchen: Treasured Foodways, Modern Flavors (Ten Speed Press, 2006); Asian Dumplings: Mastering Gyoza, Spring Rolls, Samosas, and More (Ten Speed Press, 2010); and Asian Market Shopper (Chronicle Books, 2011). We're eagerly anticipating the publication of her next book, Asian Tofu, in 2012, also published by Ten Speed Press. Andrea's website, Viet World Kitchen, is an indispensable repository of information on Vietnamese cooking, as well as on the social significance of food in Vietnamese culture. Andrea generously shared her master banh mi and daikon and carrot pickle recipes with us. Thanks, Andrea!
Whenever I bite into a banh mi sandwich — whether it's on a street in Vietnam, sidewalk of Little Saigon, or in my home kitchen — I am ingesting Vietnamese history and culture. The bread, condiments, and some of the meats are the legacy of French and Chinese colonialism. But in its entirety, the beloved banh mi is 100 percent Viet, full of self-determination, resourceful craftsmanship, and culinary magic. It often costs little but deserves a hefty sum for all the care involved.
Banh Mi Sandwich
For each sandwich:
1 petite baguette roll or a 7-inch section cut from a regular-length baguette, purchased or homemade
Mayonnaise, real (whole egg) or homemade mayonnaise
Maggi Seasoning sauce or soy sauce
Your choice of boldly-flavored meat or tofu, sliced and at room temperature
3 or 4 thin seeded cucumber strips, pickling or English variety preferred
2 or 3 cilantro sprigs, roughly chopped
3 or 4 thin jalapeño pepper slices
Everyday Daikon and Carrot Pickle (Do Chua) (recipe follows)
1. Slit the bread lengthwise, and then use your fingers or a bread knife to hollow out the insides, making a trough in both halves. Discard the insides or save for another use, such as breadcrumbs. If necessary, crisp up the bread in a toaster oven preheated to 325ºF, and then let it cool for a minute before proceeding.
2. Generously spread the inside with mayonnaise. Drizzle in some Maggi Seasoning sauce or soy sauce. Start from the bottom portion of bread to layer in the remaining ingredients. (As with all sandwiches, you'll eventually develop an order for layering the filling so as to maximize the interaction between flavors and textures.) Close the sandwich, cut it in half crosswise for easy eating, and enjoy.
Daikon and Carrot Pickle (Do Chua)
Try this daikon and carrot pickle recipe once and then tweak the recipe to your liking. Variations include adding tangy-sweet-pungent pickled shallots (cu kieu) to the mixture, as well as making heavier on the carrot side than the daikon side. I prefer to keep a higher ratio (say 2:1) of daikon to carrot as I like the mild bite of daikon radish. I like a tangy-sweet flavor whereas you can alter the ratio of sugar to vinegar to make the brine sweeter, and hence affect the pickle's flavor.
Makes about 3 cups
1 large carrot, peeled and cut into thick matchsticks
1 pound daikons, each no larger than 2 inches in diameter, peeled and cut into thick matchsticks
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons plus 1/2 cup sugar
1 1/4 cups distilled white vinegar
1 cup lukewarm water
1. Place the carrot and daikons in a bowl and sprinkle with the salt and 2 teaspoons of the sugar. Use your hands to knead the vegetables for about 3 minutes, expelling the water from them. They will soften and liquid will pool at the bottom of the bowl. Stop kneading when you can bend a piece of daikon so that the ends touch but the daikon does not break. The vegetables should have lost about one-fourth of their volume. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold running water, then press gently to expel extra water. Return the vegetables to the bowl if you plan to eat them soon, or transfer them to a 1-quart jar for longer storage.
2. To make the brine, in a bowl, combine the 1/2 cup sugar, the vinegar, and the water and stir to dissolve the sugar. Pour over the vegetables. The brine should cover the vegetables. Let the vegetables marinate in the brine for at least 1 hour before eating. They will keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks. Beyond that point, they get tired.

Marriage Equality – Status Update
Today from 1pm-5pm we're streaming The Air We Breathe – Marriage Equality: Status Update, a series of public discussions looking at the state of the campaign for marriage equality. More information on the program is here. Please join us for discussion in the chat box below the video. I'll be moderating comments there, and when possible will relay your questions to the panelists. If you'd like to chime in via Twitter, use the hashtag #TAWB. UPDATE: I'll post all the video of the day's discussions here on Monday.
5 Questions: Simon Fujiwara
Five questions to SFMOMA artists, staff, or guests. For this iteration I sat down with London-born, Berlin-based artist Simon Fujiwara. Tonight at 8 p.m. he performs The Boy Who Cried Wolf, in which he tracks his own identity and sexuality through three sites (the bar, the wedding, and the mirror). There is also a rotating stage.
Do you collect anything?
I collect a lot of things. Every winter I go to Mexico, and I generally arrive with nothing and send a container of objects and artifacts back to Europe. My studio basically looks like a prop shop; there'll be anything from hands of saints taken from deconstructed churches to old safes. I collect a lot of fake books; anything from secret libraries containing spaces to put objects in, or books that are safes. I also collect eggs, all kinds of eggs, from stone eggs to Fabergé eggs to rubber eggs that bounce. There is no hierarchy in price or style, it just has to be egg-shaped. Anytime I see an egg I buy it. In general I collect fake food. Every city tends to have a handicraft relationship with fake food. Mexico is mostly papier-mâché hand-painted; in Japan they are always highly synthetic rubberized foods, often for window displays.
If you could spend an afternoon with anyone, living or dead, who would it be?
Generally the people whom I consider artistic or intellectual heroes are people that I don't feel I want to meet. I may be wrong, and probably am, but I am afraid to jeopardize my personal relationship with their work by knowing them. George Bataille would be one person I would have liked to have seen physically, but I would have preferred it if he had been sitting at a table in a café where I could observe him, rather than actually having to sit down and have a conversation with him. We share the same birthday, as well as an egg fetish.
If you weren't an artist what would your gig be?
If I could separate the means and the end result, I'm sad to say I'd probably be in advertising. I have an ever-growing repulsion to advertising at every level, but particularly the way it has affected public space, that everything we touch, see, smell is branded and screaming some message at you. My own work is full of messages that don't offer any kind of end product. I work with complicated narrative histories that begin with my interest in a particular notion or moment in time, and expand into larger stories that I perform or create settings for. In architecture school students are taught a similar language to advertising. Even with fictive architectural proposals, students are encouraged to "sell" the building or to think about clients. It was in architecture school that I began to be interested in this language of presentation, a language that is constantly trying to promote something without quite knowing why. In architecture there is no such thing as an object for the sake of it without having a promotional attitude behind it. I find it interesting in the sense that props and objects in everyday life become part of a grander narrative that could be about the global economy, something politically motivated or simply something to satisfy a client. I could see the worst part of myself, the evil twin version of myself, in architecture PR.
Have you ever run out of money?
Yes, on Friday I bought a fur coat and ran out of money.
What's your favorite tool?
A tape-measure. I'm always happy to see one, and they are almost always nicely designed.
Simon Fujiwara's The Boy Who Cried Wolf is part of two days of events in conjunction with the exhibition The Air We Breathe, which focuses on marriage equality. On Thursday Now Playing took over the museum. Today, Simon's performance is preceded by a panel discussion on marriage equality with Paul Boneberg, Cleve Jones, Jennifer C. Pizer, Andrea Shorter, Camilla Taylor, and Thomas Watson.
Occupy Wall Street: It Ain't Over Yet
People always clap for the wrong things. — Holden Caulfield from The Catcher in the Rye, in Chapter 12
Although I am living in New York I still follow the news on SFGate, KQED, KGO, and other news outlets. What has surprised me is how completely wrong Bay Area media has been about the Occupy Wall Street movement, its motivations, its strategy, and its tactics. In particular, how occupying a park is a TACTIC in the overall STRATEGY to draw attention to the corruption and greed in the system. Important distinction — Tactics vs. Strategy! Besides being confused, the coverage in the Bay Area has been so negative and bizarre, it seems like Fox News is whispering in their ear. That interests me because criticizing Fox News has been a kind of preoccupation of mine for the past two months.
Case in point: at Occupy Wall Street last month I watched postmodern philosopher Slavoj Žižek delivering a passionate speech to the protesters gathered on the steps of Zuccotti Park. After his speech he saw I was making fun of a Fox News reporter, and so he approached me. In his tense, rapid manner, he explained how Glenn Beck was the best thing that had ever happened to Fox News and that Beck expressed Fox's vision so clearly that they just had to fire him. The danger, Žižek said, was that Beck's facade was so pure that it became his own real identity. That, in turn, meant that it was harder and harder for Fox to pretend they were really a news organization and not an arm of the Republican party, simply parroting right-wing talking points. And then he ran off into the crowd.
Then yesterday, almost exactly a month later, New York City police officers demolished the camp at Occupy Wall Street, and Fox News went on the war path. Their attitude on television was essentially this: Finally, all the dirty hippie protesters were being thrown out. Finally. Good riddance.
If all you knew about Occupy Wall Street was from mainstream media sources, maybe GOOD RIDDANCE seemed like a fair thing to say — even if it was opinion, and not, in fact, news. Fox even went so far as to use the term GOOD RIDDANCE (all capital letters) as an infographic over footage of the police tearing down tents, throwing books in Dumpsters, and cutting down trees to which some protesters had chained themselves. So as I watched this venomous "news coverage" on TV, it made me think of what Žižek had said — of how the media depends on maintaining an air of legitimacy for it not to be viewed as just some political sideshow.
But then, that's what media and politics are all about, isn't it — the battle for the appearance of legitimacy and who is the most real. Take away the appearance of authenticity and nobody will listen to what you say. It's problematic because secret motivations drive so much in society right now, especially in the media and the power structure — financial interests, political interests, etc. And it's getting harder and harder to know what is real and what is not. Fox News President Roger Ailes has even admitted on multiple occasions that Fox views itself as a partisan political operation. So why does that matter? Because news is supposed to inform the public, not lie to it.
But on top of the media empire (Fox is just one part of it) is Rupert Murdoch, who happens to own Fox News and its affiliated organizations. One such organization was News of the World in Great Britain. News of the World was recently shut down because it came out that some of the staff had been bribing police to obtain access to the voice mailboxes of prominent politicians, celebrities, and private citizens. Apparently this had been going on for years. The phone hacking scandal, as it became known, caused the British prime minister's communications director, Andy Caulson, to resign, as he had been editor of News of the World before his appointment. Then, on July 17, just two months before Occupy Wall Street began, the head of Scotland Yard — Britain's most senior police officer — Sir Paul Stephenson, announced his resignation because he had hired another News of the World editor as an "advisor." Numerous other News of the World editors and staff were arrested, and the reporter who leaked the story, Sean Hoare, was found dead on July 18 in his apartment. His death is still unexplained.
So when I saw that coverage of the Occupy Wall Street movement has been mostly negative, I wasn't surprised. Looking at how News of the World, its editors, staff, and its owner, Rupert Murdoch, have broken the law repeatedly and colluded with police to get personal data and access to private records, well, what else are they capable of? I mean, if your organization is willing to bribe police, what else is out of bounds? Surely Fox and other news media wouldn't deliberately try to smear a legitimate grassroots movement opposing such things as financial industry corruption, media corruption and bias, and political corruption. No, of course not, the news is always fair and balanced.
The Lunch Break Times
Artist Sharon Lockhart reflects on the presence of the individual in the context of industrial labor through film, photography, and printed matter. For Lunch Break (2008) she spent a year at a naval shipbuilding plant in Maine, and the exhibition — now on view — examines the workers' activities during their time off from production. SFMOMA is also distributing Lockhart's newspaper, The Lunch Break Times, which relates stories about labor and lunch breaks. Every Wednesday, at NOON, we're posting one of the articles here.……………………………………………………..
SHARON LOCKHART: Lunch Break ~ ~
Rudolf Frieling, SFMOMA curator of media arts
Newspapers these days seem to be for our daily 20-minute bus or train commutes, or for those too-long waits at the bus stop or train station. Or for our lunch breaks. Sure, some people still read actual newspapers, but most of us now feed our notoriously short attention spans by constantly checking our smartphones. There's no denying that the end of the newspaper as we know it is nearing. But as the newspaper is increasingly becoming obsolete, the Los Angeles–based artist Sharon Lockhart has decided to take a closer look at this medium.
The free copies of the newspaper Lunch Break Times are an extension of the exhibition Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break. Lockhart and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, a fine art museum located in a city that has cut almost all of its ties to its industrial past, including its legendary steel and shipping industry, share with many of the collaborators a desire to understand better what happened to the region's industrial labor force, what cultures have emerged, what fights were fought, and what rights were gained. The right to a lunch break is a crucial one in this context. To this end, the artist has composed a wonderful menu of voices, stories, and images in a spirit of collaboration and generosity.
In 2008 Lockhart began a long-term collaboration with the workers of Bath Iron Works, an historic shipyard in Bath, Maine (although Lockhart was born in Massachusetts, she spent much of her childhood in Maine, and her family still lives there). Over the course of one year, she interacted with the workers and gained their trust and collaboration. From this experience, she produced a series of works which include the film Lunch Break, the centerpiece of our exhibition; a series of photographs; an artist book titled Lunch Break, featuring selections from an archive of images she compiled; and the newspaper Lunch Break Times. For the SFMOMA exhibition, Lockhart has created a new edition with a Bay Area twist. It's a paper not only for your lunch break, but about the lunch break. You'll find a treasure trove of facts, stories, and even recipes, as well as images, about the lunch break that paints a larger picture of this workday ritual without trying to generate history with a capital H. At the end of the day, we don't care about capitalized terms like History. We care more about the small things, the individual struggles with being employed or unemployed, the stories of how others cope with the constant change of the working environment — especially here in the Bay Area, which is home to many of the revolutions of the networked society. How does the industrial past of the Bay Area inform our contemporary everyday life? In both the Lunch Break Times and the exhibition itself, Lockhart encourages you to resist the economy of short attention spans by taking your time to read and to take a closer look. In these times of accelerated global electronic communication, Lockhart thus reclaims an older, traditional mode of keeping you informed and entertained. And while the museum has always been part of this electronic revolution — for example, by starting our own "e-space" for online exhibitions as early as 2001 — we, too, think that it's time to uncover what has been pushed to the side, marginalized, and deemed irrelevant for a master course in art history. This concern, exemplified by Lockhart's unsentimental yet deeply humane attention to the local and focus on the rarely portrayed experience of the working class, takes on a particular social and political relevance in the context of contemporary global capitalism, war, and economic recession.
Not coincidentally, Lockhart has chosen to feature on the back page of this paper edition of the Lunch Break Times a photograph of Richmond shipyard workers leaving the factory. This iconic picture symbolizes the achievements of a movement for better working conditions, slightly romanticized by the glistening sun and soft embrace of the Bay Area fog in the background. It is a picture full of references to the iconography of economic and political struggles, even though no actual political fight is depicted: we simply see workers leaving the factory after a day's work during World War II. This photograph reminds me of iconic images that mark the turn of the century and the political struggles that peaked a few decades later, such as the famous painting Il Quarto Stato (1901) from the Museo del Novecento in Milan, which was immortalized by Bernardo Bertolucci in his epic film 1900, and, of course, Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory, filmed by Auguste and Louis Lumière in 1895. This film is generally considered the beginning of the motion picture industry, and Lockhart acknowledges the impact of this history in her own film Exit. From the history of painting that blends into the history of film to a history of film that is translated back into the painterly still lifes in her photographs and film Lunch Break — indeed, in almost all of her work — Lockhart tries to understand how a site relates to people and vice versa, reconnecting us to a deeper recognition of what it means to inhabit a space, whether it's the Bath Iron Works, the woods of northern California (Pine Flat), the low-tide clam flats of Maine (Double Tide), or the courtyards of a Polish city (Podworka). Time stands still, and yet it moves, filling our time with a sense of place that is a unique and up-close look at how people work and live.
Rudolf Frieling joined the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 2006 as curator of media arts, coming from ZKM Center for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, Germany. At SFMOMA he curated the group shows In Collaboration: Works From the Media Arts Collection, The Art of Participation: 1950 to Now, and Longplay: Bruce Conner and the Singles Collection, as well as monographic shows by Candice Breitz and David Claerbout, among others. He also teaches as adjunct professor at the California College of Art and the San Francisco Art Institute.
Letter from Yvonne Rainer to Jeffrey Deitch
After observing a rehearsal, I am writing to protest the "entertainment" about to be provided by Marina Abramović at the upcoming donor gala at the Museum of Contemporary Art, where a number of young people's live heads will be rotating as decorative centerpieces at diners' tables and others — all women — will be required to lie perfectly still in the nude for over three hours under fake skeletons, also as centerpieces surrounded by diners.
On the face of it the above description might strike one as reminiscent of Salo, Pasolini's controversial film of 1975 that dealt with sadism and sexual abuse of a group of adolescents at the hands of a bunch of postwar fascists. Though it is hard to watch, Pasolini's film has a socially credible justification tied to the cause of anti-fascism. Abramović and MoCA have no such credibility — and I am speaking of this event itself, not of Abramović's work in general — only a questionable personal rationale about the beauty of eye contact and the transcendence of artists' suffering.
At the rehearsal the fifty heads — all young, beautiful, and mostly white — turning and bobbing out of holes as their bodies crouched beneath the otherwise empty tables, appeared touching and somewhat comic, but when I tried to envision 800 inebriated diners surrounding them, I had another impression. I myself have never been averse to occasional epatering of the bourgeoisie. However, I can't help feeling that subjecting her performers to possible public humiliation and bodily injury from the three-hour endurance test at the hands of a bunch of frolicking donors is yet another example of the Museum's callousness and greed and Ms. Abramović's obliviousness to differences in context and some of the implications of transposing her own powerful performances to the bodies of others. An exhibition is one thing — again, this is not a critique of Abramović's work in general — but titillation for wealthy donor/diners as a means of raising money is another.
Ms. Abramović is so wedded to her original vision that she — and by extension, the Museum director and curators — doesn't see the egregious associations for the performers, who, though willing, will be exploited nonetheless. Their cheerful voluntarism says something about the pervasive desperation and cynicism of the art world such that young people must become abject table ornaments and clichéd living symbols of mortality in order to assume a novitiate role in the temple of art.
This grotesque spectacle promises to be truly embarrassing. I and the undersigned wish to express our dismay that an institution that we have supported can stoop to such degrading methods of fund raising. Can other institutions be far behind? Must we re-name MoCA "MOUFR" or the Museum of Unsavory Fund Raising?

See the FAQ section for more information on usage and options.
