As music fans, we all have expectations of the bands that populate our collections. Those expectations depend on each individual listener and the kind of music. For me, the most important things in any kind of music (in no particular order) are melody, harmonies, intensity, emotion, and originality. The ways in which a band is able to pull off these characteristics are nearly infinite, but increasingly I have noticed a lot of bands uniting behind opinions to try and capture and create a sense of intensity and emotion.
It has bothered me a lot in the past year when a band has talked politics onstage at rock shows. I have seen political messages preached to me from bands like Thursday, The Appleseed Cast and most recently and most unintelligently with the AKA's. Thursday talked about ending the war and made a snide comment about having gone to war in the first place. The Appleseed Cast went off on Bush and the AKA's decided to use an ad hominem attack on Bush as if John Kerry sponsored their message. In fairness to the AKA's they were also running a voter registration drive which I have absolutely no problem with. Telling people that they should vote is a good cause.
I am left with a question. Why is a rock show an acceptable forum for political pontification?
You can't get into any issues in any sort of depth. All you are left with is something that you can fit into the fifteen seconds between songs. This is hardly an opportunity to make a valid point. How many points do you know of that can be made in a fifteen second spot? If you want to write something on your website and make some sort of a point, then that is fine, but otherwise you are just alienating a bunch of people at a rock show who wanted to listen to your music. Even if a bunch of the kids end up agreeing with you, they aren't learning anything by repeating what they heard from their rock star heroes in some club.
I know all the examples I gave were against Bush, but that is all I have seen so far this year. In order to be fair, there are also right-wing types of bands as well. One site in particular is called www.conservativepunk.com. But, regardless of the message, I am left asking a very simple question that I think more rock fans should ask. What makes a musician qualified to talk politics? And what about being a musician makes them more knowledgeable to the point where I should listen and derive my opinions from theirs? The fact is that these are a bunch of people who are good at writing songs, conveying messages through music and lyrics. In no way does this give them some insight into the intellectual topics of the day.
When I was younger, I fell for this kind of thing hook, line and sinker. I was influenced by the messages in all of the music I liked. I used to get really angry listening to Rage Against the Machine and I could spout some of their lines as if they were my own. When the Tool album Aenima came out, I automatically took it as an unarguable fact that Los Angeles is a big, fake, plastic, disgusting place with horrible people, who don't care about anything but plastic surgery, fashion, and lattes. I decided to just agree with Tool and I hoped that Los Angeles would fall into Arizona Bay.
Wait just a minute, though. I have never been to LA. At the time, I didn't know anyone who was from California. Frankly, the only knowledge of LA I had was Beverly Hills 90210 and Beverly Hills Cop movies. In essence, I was taking my opinions from Brandon Walsh, Axel Foley and Tool. To think about that in hindsight is kind of embarrassing for me. Now that I am a little bit older, I don't jump on board with anything just because a guy who can sing or play guitar tells me I should. For the record, one of the messages that Tool sends to their fans is that they should think for themselves. I was just too immature to understand at the time.
According to press coverage before their latest album came out, Thursday claim that their music doesn't have as many political messages as it is just storytelling of personal strife and triumph filtered through political imagery. That's fine, but when I have seen them live, they have spoken to audiences about different topics and different things that they believe. They were critical of political ideas and politicians. It is their right to say whatever they want onstage, just as it is my right to not buy a ticket if I don't want it, but that doesn't really cover the entire issue.
Again, I am left thinking; what makes singer, Geoff Rickly, uniquely qualified to teach me about anything? Is he somehow smarter than I am? I can't help but come to the conclusion that the answer is a resounding, NO. I am not saying he is a dumb guy. He could be right about everything he says on all accounts, but as a singer for a rock band, he doesn't have a secret pipeline to political enlightenment and it is important for fans to remember that.
We all know what experts are. Alan Greenspan is an experienced veteran on the economy, interest rates and things like that. Nobody asks him how he feels about drug laws at the state level. Roger Ebert is an experienced movie critic, so nobody asks him how he recommends cooking paella. Hell, Roger Ebert might cook a really great paella, but in order for us to listen, he must somehow prove to us that he has some expertise before anyone will care. So be careful whose speech you filter into your brain.
Ultimately it is important to me that a band has something that they feel strongly about, whether it is religion, politics or their love for the staff at their neighborhood Applebee's restaurant. It will make their music more emotional, more intense and from my perspective much more entertaining if they are united in some way. I will never fault a band for using a theme for that effect. I won't fault a band for speaking their mind either, as I value speech as a right of all people. As I said previously, I have the choice whether to buy their album or a ticket to their show. The one thing I would caution a lot of these bands on is using their theme in such a way that it can prove to be divisive. You don't have to like everything about a band and you don't have to agree with their opinions to enjoy the music, unless they put you, as the listener, in that position. I would caution music fans as I have already learned the lesson.
What makes me uniquely qualified to caution you about anything? Well, I think I have some experience with this whole thing, but ultimately, I am not uniquely qualified at all.
This is the whole point, really. Consider the sources of the messages you receive. And no matter what, make sure you do some of your own critical thinking on any topic before you decide where you stand. It is good that a lot of these bands are thinking and expressing opinions, but don't let them think and create your opinions for you.

Happy Holidays!
Even though you'd never know it if you lived, like I do, in Wisconsin, Spring is just around the corner. Coincidentally, the first official day of Spring this year also lands on the first maddening day of the 2014 NCAA Men's basketball tournament, March 20th. Yes, even though three feet of snow and single digit temperatures still persist in the Midwest, the Madness of March is just a full court heave away.
The tell tale signs of March Madness are everywhere. Spring training is underway in Major League baseball, the warm weather teams pining for any headline whatsoever, failing miserably as a masked man known as LeBron James lights up the NBA with a 61 point performance last night.
NASCAR has already booked two races, inexplicably starting as it does every year with their own Super Bowl of racing, the Daytona 500, right out of the shoot. They will continue to promote Dale Earnhardt, Jr. as the next best thing since Mountain Dew, but for most of us, that season is now officially over.
The NFL will continue to talk of its impending draft, but we're already bored beyond belief by the sports talk radio arguments over Johnny Manziel, Jadeveon Clowney, and other possible Houston Texan selections.
The Oscars too have also already come and gone, with the best movies of the past 12 months, "The Wolf Of Wall Street' and "American Hustle" being snubbed by the Hollywood hierarchy last Sunday night.
All those springtime signs just mean the real reason we are put on this earth to watch sports will soon be upon us, the heaven of all hoopla, March Madness. In a mere 16 days, the Vegas sports books will begin to swell, the handicappers will light up Twitter like a Christmas tree, and the office pools and on line brackets will soon be distributed and filled out, in vain, by millions of fans trying to win Warrren Buffet's jackpot, not to mention the occasional case of beer and bragging rights among friends and relatives.
Here in the Midwest the snow might actually begin to melt, and the temperatures might exceed 40 degrees, but don't be surprised if this winter lands another 8-12" haymaker of a snow storm on Thursday, March 20th. No, that just means the first day of 16 college basketball tournament games will be that much more inviting, even more so if you take the day off, or schedule three or four "sales" calls between 11am and 5pm at BW3, The Mid Town Pub, The Brothers Three, or Dick's Never Inn.
Wherever you may find yourself on this much anticipated Opening Day of tournament basketball, may your favorite team win and your bracket shine brightly, and if for some reason your team suffers an early exit and your bracket is busted after just the first weekend, rest assured you'll be guaranteed another two weeks of buzzer beaters and cliffhangers, white knucklers and down-to-the-wire jobs. As the late, great, basketball guru Al McGuire so aptly described the scene, no matter how you look at it, or wherever you go during March Madness, it's sure to be "Seashells and Balloons".
We've only been waiting since Louisville disposed of Michigan last year for this moment, so bring on this Madness of March, the best time for viewing sports is finally here. Happy Holidays!

I'm sort of on vacation this week (and will literally be out of town on Thursday and Friday), so instead of writing a lot of new posts, I'm instead going to run a bunch of reviews that I've been storing up. First in the queue is David Krinick's piece on Mario Benedetti's The Rest Is Jungle and Other Stories, which was translated from the Spanish by Harry Morales and will be out from Host Publications next week.
As David mentions, Benedetti is a big name in Latin American literature, but not all that well known among English-readers. That's no fault of Morales's—he's been pushing to get Benedetti's works published for quite some time now. Harry's a great translator, and it's great to see at least one of the books he was championing available to the masses.
David's interning here this summer, packing catalogs, reading submissions, and setting up sales calls with bookstores. (Among other fun intern activities.)
Here's the opening of his review:
Mario Benedetti is a name seldom recognized in the United States, but lasting memory and love of the writer's prolific career maintains his popularity in Latin America. His multifaceted talent over language produced a dizzying eighty published books, writing as a poet, short story writer, novelist, critic, journalist and political activist. Born in Uruguay in 1920 and coming of age in Montevideo, the nations largest city and capitol, he lived during a period of economic success and social liberty that his neighboring country's failed to maintain. This milieu left its mark on his writing, manifesting a distinctly urban voice that captures the often isolated existences that modern cities have produced. He explored characters and environments of social and political repression that stemmed from the plights of Uruguay's neighboring countries and later its own military dictatorship which forced him into exile in 1973. Whether his narrations embody embittered lovers, pets, or fragmented psyches eager for attention, Benedetti's origins as a poet penetrates his short stories with lucid descriptions that illuminate his often bleak landscapes. From "Forgotten Memories":
"Fernando is sweet and his weight doesn't weigh on me his bones fit into my sockets and I clearly see the juicy sadness of being happy not like with Eduardo of course because this heavenly bliss is also part of my grief this apex also part of my ruin but the body is pragmatic and saves us saves me through pleasure like this one that now penetrates me saves us though the tongues that communicate and console our loneliness purifies us in the lament that is an appeal and is a response and thus I come and go and you come and go Fernando in my ego your home your birthplace your bed tell me again Lucía because with your clamor you give me my identity you give me my body give me my nature you give me you give me oh how much you've giving me Fernando Eduardo Fernando Eduardo Fernando Fernando Fernando I exist again."

Frank Owen Gehry, CC (born Frank Owen Goldberg; 28 February 1929)[1] is a Canadian-born American architect, residing in Los Angeles.
A number of his buildings, including his private residence, have become world-renowned attractions. His works are cited as being among the most important works of contemporary architecture in the 2010 World Architecture Survey, which led Vanity Fair to label him as "the most important architect of our age".[2]
Gehry's best-known works include the titanium-clad Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain; Walt Disney Concert Hall in downtown Los Angeles; Louis Vuitton Foundation in Paris, France; MIT Ray and Maria Stata Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts; The Vontz Center for Molecular Studies on the University of Cincinnati campus; Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle; New World Center in Miami Beach; Weisman Art Museum in Minneapolis; Dancing House in Prague; the Vitra Design Museum and the MARTa Herford museum in Germany; the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto; the Cinémathèque Française in Paris; and 8 Spruce Street in New York City.
It was his private residence in Santa Monica, California, that jump-started his career. Gehry is also the designer of the future National Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial.[3]

Early life
Gehry was born Frank Owen Goldberg[1] on February 28, 1929, in Toronto, Ontario, to parents Sadie Thelma (née Kaplanski/Caplan) and Irving Goldberg.[4] His father was born in Brooklyn, New York, to Russian Jewish parents, and his mother was a Polish Jewish immigrant.[5][6][7] A creative child, he was encouraged by his grandmother, with whom he would build little cities out of scraps of wood.[8] With these scraps from her husband's hardware store, she entertained him for hours, building imaginary houses and futuristic cities on the living room floor.[4]
His use of corrugated steel, chain link fencing, unpainted plywood and other utilitarian or "everyday" materials was partly inspired by spending Saturday mornings at his grandfather's hardware store. He would spend time drawing with his father, while his mother introduced him to the world of art. "So the creative genes were there", Gehry says. "But my father thought I was a dreamer, I wasn't gonna amount to anything. It was my mother who thought I was just reticent to do things. She would push me."[9]
He was given the Hebrew name "Ephraim" by his grandfather, but only used it at his bar mitzvah.[1]
In 1947, his family immigrated to the United States settling in California. Gehry got a job driving a delivery truck, and studied at Los Angeles City College, eventually to graduate from the University of Southern California's School of Architecture. During that time, he became a member of Alpha Epsilon Pi.[10]
According to Gehry, "I was a truck driver in L.A., going to City College, and I tried radio announcing, which I wasn't very good at. I tried chemical engineering, which I wasn't very good at and didn't like, and then I remembered. You know, somehow I just started wracking my brain about, 'What do I like?' Where was I? What made me excited? And I remembered art, that I loved going to museums and I loved looking at paintings, loved listening to music. Those things came from my mother, who took me to concerts and museums. I remembered Grandma and the blocks, and just on a hunch, I tried some architecture classes."[11] Gehry graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture degree from USC in 1954.[citation needed]
After graduating from college, he spent time away from the field of architecture in numerous other jobs, including service in the United States Army.[8] In the fall of 1956, he moved his family to Cambridge, where he studied city planning at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. He left before completing the program, disheartened and underwhelmed.[12] Gehry's left-wing ideas about socially responsible architecture were under-realized,[clarification needed] and the final straw occurred when he sat in on a discussion of one professor's "secret project in progress"—a palace that he was designing for right-wing Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista (1901–1973).[4]
Gehry returned to Los Angeles to work for Victor Gruen Associates, who he had apprenticed for while at USC School of Architecture. In 1957 he was given the chance to design and construct his first private residence at the age of 28, with friend and old classmate Greg Walsh. Built in Idyllwild, California for his wife Anita's family neighbor Melvin David, "The David Cabin", completed in 1958,[13] shows features that were to become prominent in later work. The over 2,000 square foot mountain retreat has unique design features with prominent Asian influences, stemming from his earliest inspirations at the time like Shosoin Treasure House in Nara, Japan, among others. Beams protrude from the exterior sides and exposed, unfinished ceiling beams are prominent features.
In 1961, he moved to Paris where he worked for architects Pereira and Lickman.[8] In 1962, Gehry established a practice in Los Angeles which became Frank Gehry and Associates in 1967[8] and then Gehry Partners in 2001.[14] Gehry's earliest commissions were all in Southern California, where he designed a number of innovative commercial structures such as Santa Monica Place (1980) and residential buildings such as the eccentric Norton House (1984) in Venice, California.[15]
Among these works, however, Gehry's most notable design may be the renovation of his own Santa Monica residence.[16] Originally built in 1920 and purchased by Gehry in 1977, the house features a metallic exterior wrapped around the original building that leaves many of the original details visible.[17] Gehry still resides there today.
Other completed buildings designed by Gehry during the 1980s include the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium (1981) in San Pedro and the California Aerospace Museum (1984) at the California Museum of Science and Industry in Los Angeles.
In 1989, Gehry was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize. The jury cited Gehry as "Always open to experimentation, he has as well a sureness and maturity that resists, in the same way that Picasso did, being bound either by critical acceptance or his successes. His buildings are juxtaposed collages of spaces and materials that make users appreciative of both the theatre and the back-stage, simultaneously revealed."[18]
Though Gehry continued to design other notable buildings in California such as the Chiat/Day Building (1991) in Venice in collaboration with Claes Oldenburg, which is well known for its massive sculpture of binoculars, he also began to receive larger national and international commissions. These include Gehry's first European commission, the Vitra International Furniture Manufacturing Facility and Design Museum in Germany completed in 1989. This was soon followed by other major commissions including the Frederick Weisman Museum of Art[19] (1993) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the Cinémathèque Française[20] (1994) in Paris, France, and the Dancing House[21] (1996) in Prague, Czech Republic.
In 1997, Gehry vaulted to a new level of international acclaim[2] when the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao opened in Bilbao, Spain. Hailed by New Yorker Magazine as a "masterpiece of the twentieth century" and legendary architect Philip Johnson as "the greatest building of our time",[22] the museum became famous for its striking yet aesthetically pleasing design and the economic effect that it had on the city.
Since then, Gehry has regularly won major commissions and has further established himself as one of the world's most notable architects. His best received works include several concert halls for classical music, such as the boisterous and curvaceous Walt Disney Concert Hall (2003) in Downtown Los Angeles, which has been the centerpiece of the neighborhood's revitalization and has been labeled by the LA Times as "the most effective answer to doubters, naysayers, and grumbling critics an American architect has ever produced",[23] the open-air Jay Pritzker Pavilion (2004) adjacent to Millennium Park in Chicago,[24] and the understated New World Center (2011) in Miami Beach, which the LA Times called "a piece of architecture that dares you to underestimate it or write it off at first glance."[25]
Other notable works include academic buildings such as the Stata Center (2004)[26] at MIT and the Peter B. Lewis Library (2008) at Princeton University,[27] museums such as the Museum of Pop Culture (2000) in Seattle, Washington,[28] commercial buildings such as the IAC Building (2007) in New York City,[29] and residential buildings such as Gehry's first skyscraper, the Beekman Tower at 8 Spruce Street (2011)[30] in New York City.
Several recent and ongoing major works by Gehry around the world include the Dr Chau Chak Wing Building in the University of Technology, Sydney, completed in 2014.[31] The Chau Chak Wing, with its 320,000 bricks in "sweeping lines" is described as "10 out of 10" on a scale of difficulty.[32] An ongoing project is the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi on Saadiyat Island in the United Arab Emirates.[33] Other significant projects such as the Mirvish Towers in Toronto,[34] and a multi-decade renovation of the Philadelphia Museum of Art are currently in the design stage. In October 2013, Gehry was appointed joint architect with Foster + Partners to design the "High Street" phase of the development of Battersea Power Station in London, England, which will represent Gehry's first project in London.[35]
However, in recent years, some of Gehry's more prominent designs have failed to go forward. In addition to unrealized designs such as a major Corcoran Art Gallery expansion in Washington, D.C., and a new Guggenheim museum near the South Street Seaport in New York City, Gehry was notoriously dropped by developer Bruce Ratner from the Pacific Park redevelopment project and was also dropped in 2014 as the designer of the World Trade Center Performing Arts Center; both of these projects were in New York City.[36] That said, some stalled projects have recently shown progress: after many years and a dismissal, Gehry was recently reinstated as architect for the Grand Avenue Project in Los Angeles and, though Gehry's controversial[37][38] [39] design of the National Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial in Washington, D.C., has been subject to numerous delays during the approval process with the United States Congress, the project was finally approved in 2014 with a modified design.
In 2014, two significant, long-awaited museums designed by Gehry opened: the Biomuseo,[40] a biodiversity museum in Panama City, Panama, and the Fondation Louis Vuitton,[41][42][43] a modern art museum in the Bois de Boulogne park in Paris, France, which opened to some rave reviews.[44]
Also in 2014, Gehry was commissioned by the Los Angeles River Revitalization Corporation, a nonprofit group founded by the city of Los Angeles in 2009 to coordinate river policy, to devise a wide-ranging new plan for the river.[45]
In February 2015 the new building for the University of Technology, Sydney was officially opened, with a façade constructed from more than 320,000 hand-placed bricks and glass slabs, and costing AU$180 million. Gehry said he would "never again design a building quite like the "crumpled paper bag".[46]
Gehry told the French newspaper La Croix in November 2016 that French President Francois Hollande had assured the architect that he could relocate to France if Donald Trump was elected President of the United States.[47][48] The following month Gehry said that he had no plans to move.[49] He and Trump exchanged words in 2010 when Gehry's 8 Spruce Street, originally known as the "Beekman Tower", was built 1 foot (0.30 m) taller than the nearby Trump Building, which until then had been New York City's tallest residential building.[48][50]
Architectural style
Much of Gehry's work reflects a spirit of experimentation coupled with a respect for the demands of professional practice. Gehry's work has remained largely unaligned with broader stylistic tendencies or movements.[citation needed] With his earliest educational influences rooted in modernism, Gehry's work has sought to escape modernist stylistic tropes while still remaining interested in some of its underlying transformative agendas. Continually working between given circumstances and unanticipated materializations, Gehry's style works to disrupt expectations.[citation needed]
Gehry is sometimes associated with what is known as the "Los Angeles School" or the "Santa Monica School" of architecture. The appropriateness of this designation and the existence of such a school, however, remains controversial due to the lack of a unifying philosophy or theory. This designation stems from the Los Angeles area's producing a group of the most influential postmodern architects, including such notable Gehry contemporaries as Eric Owen Moss and Pritzker Prize-winner Thom Mayne of Morphosis, as well as the famous schools of architecture at the Southern California Institute of Architecture (co‑founded by Mayne), UCLA, and USC where Gehry is a member of the board of directors.[citation needed]
Gehry's style at times seems unfinished or even crude, but his work is consistent with the California "funk" art movement in the 1960s and early 1970s, which featured the use of inexpensive found objects and non-traditional media such as clay to make serious art.[51] Gehry has been called "the apostle of chain-link fencing and corrugated metal siding".[52] However, a retrospective exhibit at New York's Whitney Museum in 1988 revealed that he is also a sophisticated classical artist, who knows European art history and contemporary sculpture and painting.[51]

Bilbao effect
After the phenomenal success of Gehry's design for the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, critics began referring to the economic and cultural revitalization of cities through iconic, innovative architecture as the "Bilbao effect".[53] In the first 12 months after the museum was opened, an estimated US$160 million were added to the Basque economy. Indeed, over $3.5 billion has been added to the Basque economy since the building opened.[54] In subsequent years there have been many attempts to replicate this effect through large-scale eye-catching architectural commissions that have been both successful and unsuccessful, such as Daniel Libeskind's expansion of the Denver Art Museum and buildings by Gehry himself such as the almost universally well-received Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and the more controversial Museum of Pop Culture in Seattle.[55] Though some link the concept of the Bilbao Effect to the notion of starchitecture, Gehry has consistently rejected the label of a starchitect.[56]
Though much of Gehry's work has been well-received, reception of Gehry's work is not always positive. Art historian Hal Foster reads Gehry's architecture as, primarily, in the service of corporate branding.[57] Criticism of his work includes complaints over design flaws that the buildings waste structural resources by creating functionless forms, do not seem to belong in their surroundings or enhance the public context of their locations, and are apparently designed without accounting for the local climate.[58][59]
Moreover, the socialist magazine Jacobin pointed out that Gehry's work can be summed up as architecture for the super-wealthy, in the sense that it is expensive, not resourceful, and does not serve the interests of the overwhelming majority. Actually, Gehry dismissed common architecture, which ordinary people tend to use as shelter, by saying, "In the world we live in, 98 percent of what gets built and designed today is pure shit."[60]
Other aspects of career
In January 2011, Gehry joined the University of Southern California (USC) faculty, as the Judge Widney Professor of Architecture.[61] He has since continued in this role at his alma mater.
Though Gehry is often referred to as a "starchitect", Gehry has repeatedly expressed his disdain for the term, insisting instead that he is only an architect.[56][62] Steve Sample, President of the University of Southern California, told Gehry that "...After George Lucas, you are our most prominent graduate".
As of December 2013[update], Gehry has received over a dozen honorary degrees from various universities (see #Honorary doctorates).
Exhibition design
Gehry has been involved in exhibition designs at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art dating back to the 1960s. In 1965 Gehry designed the exhibition display for the "Art Treasures of Japan" exhibition at the LACMA. This was followed soon after by the exhibition design for the "Assyrian Reliefs" show in 1966 and the "Billy Al Bengston Retrospective" in 1968. The LACMA then had Gehry design the installation for the "Treasures of Tutankhamen" exhibition in 1978 followed by the "Avant-Garde in Russia 1910–1930" exhibition in 1980. The subsequent year Gehry designed the exhibition for "Seventeen Artists in the 60's" at the LACMA followed soon after by the "German Expressionist Sculpture Exhibition" in 1983. In 1991/92, Gehry designed the installation of the landmark exhibition "Degenerate Art: The Fate of the Avant-Garde in Nazi Germany", which opened at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and traveled to the Art Institute of Chicago, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington and the Altes Museum in Berlin.[63][64] In 2014, Gehry was asked to design an exhibition on the work of Alexander Calder at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's Resnick Pavilion, again invited by the museum's curator Stephanie Barron.[65] The exhibition began on November 24, 2013, and ran through July 27, 2014.
In addition to his long-standing involvement with exhibition design at the LACMA, Gehry has also designed numerous exhibition installations with other institutions. In 1998, "The Art of the Motorcycle" exhibition opened at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum with its installation designed by Gehry. This exhibition subsequently traveled to the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao and the Guggenheim Las Vegas.
In 2014, he curated an exhibition of photography by his close friend and businessman Peter Arnell that ran from March 5 through April 1 at Milk Studios Gallery in Los Angeles.[66]
Stage design
In 1983, Gehry created the stage design for Lucinda Childs' dance Available Light, set to music by John Adams. It premiered at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles at the "Temporary Contemporary", and was subsequently seen at the Brooklyn Academy of Music Opera House in New York City, and the Theatre de la Ville in Paris. The set consisted of two levels angled in relation to each other, with a chain-link backdrop.[67] The pieces was revived in 2015,[68] and was performed, among other places, in Los Angeles and Philadelphia, where it was presented by FringeArts, which commissioned the revival.[69]
In 2012 Gehry designed the set for the Los Angeles Philharmonic's opera production of Don Giovanni, performed at the Walt Disney Concert Hall.
In April 2014 Gehry designed a set for an "exploration of the life and career of Pierre Boulez" by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, which was performed in November of that year.[70]
Other designs
In addition to architecture, Gehry has made a line of furniture, jewelry for Tiffany & Co., various household items, sculptures, and even a glass bottle for Wyborowa Vodka. His first line of furniture, produced from 1969 to 1973, was called "Easy Edges", constructed out of cardboard. Another line of furniture released in the spring of 1992 is "Bentwood Furniture". Each piece is named after a different hockey term. He was first introduced to making furniture in 1954 while serving in the U.S. Army, where he designed furniture for the enlisted soldiers.
In many of his designs, Gehry is inspired by fish. "It was by accident I got into the fish image", claimed Gehry. One thing that sparked his interest in fish was the fact that his colleagues were recreating Greek temples. He said, "Three hundred million years before man was fish....if you gotta go back, and you're insecure about going forward...go back three hundred million years ago. Why are you stopping at the Greeks? So I started drawing fish in my sketchbook, and then I started to realize that there was something in it."[71]
As a result of his fascination, the first Fish Lamps were fabricated between 1984 and 1986. They employed wire armatures molded into fish shapes, onto which shards of plastic laminate ColorCore are individually glued. Since the creation of the first lamp in 1984, the fish has become a recurrent motif in Gehry's work, most notably in the Fish Sculpture at La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou in Barcelona (1989–92) and Standing Glass Fish for the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden (1986).[72]
Gehry has previously collaborated with luxury jewelry company Tiffany & Co creating six distinct jewelry collections: the Orchid collection, Fish collection, Torque collection, Equus collection, Axis collection and Fold collection. In addition to jewelry, Gehry designed other items including a distinctive collector's chess set as well as a series of tableware items including vases, cups and bowls for the company.[73]
In 2004, Gehry designed the official trophy for the World Cup of Hockey.[74]
In 2014, Gehry was one of the 6 "iconoclasts" selected by French fashion house Louis Vuitton to design a piece using their iconic monogram pattern as part of their "Celebrating Monogram" campaign.[75]
In 2015, Gehry designed his first yacht.[76]
Software development
Gehry's firm was responsible for innovation in architectural software.[77] His firm spun off another firm called Gehry Technologies that was established in 2002. In 2005, Gehry Technologies began a partnership with Dassault Systèmes to bring innovations from the aerospace and manufacturing world to AEC and developed Digital Project software as well as GTeam software. In 2014, Gehry Technologies was acquired by software company Trimble Navigation.[78] Its client list includes Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Herzog & de Meuron, Jean Nouvel, Coop Himmelb(l)au and Zaha Hadid.
Personal life
In 1952, Gehry (then Goldberg) married Anita Snyder. According to an interview with Gehry on the genealogy program Finding Your Roots, he changed his name in 1956 to Frank O. Gehry in part because of the antisemitism he had experienced as a child and as an undergraduate at USC. Gehry and Snyder divorced in 1966.
He married his current wife, Panamanian Berta Isabel Aguilera, in 1975. He has two daughters from his first marriage and two sons from his second marriage.
Having grown up in Canada, Gehry is an avid fan of ice hockey. He began a hockey league in his office, FOG (which stands for Frank Owen Gehry), though he no longer plays with them.[79] In 2004, he designed the trophy for the World Cup of Hockey.[80] Gehry holds dual citizenship in Canada and the United States. He lives in Santa Monica, California, and continues to practice out of Los Angeles.
Gehry is known for his sometimes cantankerous personality. During a trip to Oviedo, Spain, to accept the prestigious Prince of Asturias Award in October 2014, he received a significant amount of attention, both positive and negative, for publicly flipping off a reporter at a press conference who accused him of being a "showy" architect.[81][82]
Gehry is a member of the California Yacht Club in Marina Del Rey, California, and enjoys sailing with his fiberglass-hulled yacht, "Foggy".[83] Gehry also serves on the Leadership council of The New York Stem Cell Foundation.[84]
In popular culture
In 2004, he voiced himself on the children's TV show Arthur, where he helped Arthur and his friends design a new treehouse.[85] Gehry also voiced himself in the 2005 episode of The Simpsons called "The Seven-Beer Snitch", in which he designs a concert hall for the fictional city of Springfield. Gehry has since voiced that he regrets his appearance since a joke about his design technique has led people to misunderstand his architectural process.[86]
In 2006, filmmaker Sydney Pollack made a documentary about Gehry's work called Sketches of Frank Gehry. The film, which followed Gehry over the course of five years and painted a positive portrait of his character, was well-received critically.[87]
In 2009, architecturally-inspired ice cream sandwich company Coolhaus named a cookie and ice cream combination after Gehry. Dubbed the "Frank Behry", it features Strawberries & Cream gelato and snickerdoodle cookies.[88][89]
Exhibitions of Gehry's work
In October 2014, the first major European exhibition of Gehry's work debuted at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, France.[90] Other museums or major galleries that have done exhibitions on Gehry's architecture or design include the Leo Castelli Gallery in 1983 and the Walker Art Center in 1986 whose exhibition then traveled to the Toronto Harbourfront Museum, the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, the LACMA and the Whitney Museum. Subsequently, further museums that have done major exhibitions on Gehry's work include the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art in 1992, the Gagosian Gallery in 1984, 1992 and 1993, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 2001, the Guggenheim Bilbao in 2002, the Jewish Museum in Manhattan in 2010 and the Milan Triennale, first in 1988 and then in 2010, with an exhibition entitled "Frank Gehry from 1997." In 2015, LACMA held a major retrospective of Gehry's work.[91]
Gehry participated in the 1980 Venice Biennale's "La Strada Novissima" installation. He also contributed to the 1985 Venice Biennale with an installation and performance named "Il Corso del Coltello" done in collaboration with Claes Oldenburg. His projects were featured in the 1996 Venice Biennale. He subsequently contributed to the 2008 Venice Biennale with an installation named "Ungapatchket".
In October 2015, 21 21 Design Sight in Tokyo held the exhibition "Frank Gehry. I Have An Idea", curated by Japanese architect Tsuyoshi Tane.[92]

KALYDECO is a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) potentiator indicated for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) in patients age 6 years and older who have one of the following mutations in the CFTR gene: G551D, G1244E, G1349D, G178R, G551S, S1251N, S1255P, S549N, or S549R. If the patient's genotype is unknown, an FDA-cleared CF mutation test should be used to detect the presence of a CFTR mutation followed by verification with bidirectional sequencing when recommended by the mutation test instructions for use.
Limitations of Use
KALYDECO is not effective in patients with CF who are homozygous for the F508del mutation in the CFTR gene.
Dosing Information In Adults And Children Ages 6 Years And Older
The recommended dose of KALYDECO for both adults and pediatric patients age 6 years and older is one 150 mg tablet taken orally every 12 hours (300 mg total daily dose) with fat-containing food. Examples of appropriate fat-containing foods include eggs, butter, peanut butter, cheese pizza, etc. [see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY and PATIENT INFORMATION].
Dosage Adjustment For Patients With Hepatic Impairment
The dose of KALYDECO should be reduced to 150 mg once daily for patients with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class B). KALYDECO should be used with caution in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class C) at a dose of 150 mg once daily or less frequently [see Use in Specific Populations, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, and PATIENT INFORMATION].
Dosage Adjustment For Patients Taking Drugs That Are CYP3A Inhibitors
When KALYDECO is being co-administered with strong CYP3A inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole), the dose should be reduced to 150 mg twice a week. The dose of KALYDECO should be reduced to 150 mg once daily when co-administered with moderate CYP3A inhibitors (e.g., fluconazole). Food containing grapefruit or Seville oranges should be avoided [see DRUG INTERACTIONS, CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, and PATIENT INFORMATION].

In the News
Magnus Carlsen Triple World Champion
Magnus Carlsen won both the FIDE World Rapid Championship and the FIDE World Blitz Championship in Dubai, and so the Norwegian now holds the crown in three different time controls. He wasn't top seeded in either event, and with a large number of many rounds and many top players present, Carlsen wasn't considered more than a slight favorite. A historic achievement, described by Garry Kasparov as "a little like winning tennis slams on clay, grass and hard court." Read the final reports on the rapid here and on the blitz here.
Hou Yifan Wins Lopota Grand Prix, Closes in on Polgar
Hou Yifan won the Women's Grand Prix tournament in Lopota, Georgia after dominating the event from start to finish. The 20-year-old Chinese grandmaster eventually scored 9.0/11 (a 2772 performance), and that was two points more than Ju Wenjun of China and Elina Danielian of Armenia. Hou Yifan won €10,000 with her victory but also gained 18.1 rating points, and now she is only 29 rating points behind Judit Polgar in the live ratings. Read the final report here.
Changes in the Laws of Chess - What Should You Know?
Bringing a phone to the playing hall may lead to a loss, an illegal move will lose the game also in rapid chess, and two illegal moves lead to a loss in classical chess. These are some of the changes in the new rules of chess, which came in effect on July 1st. The new FIDE Laws of Chess, as they are officially called, were adopted at the FIDE Congress in Tallinn, Estonia in October 2013 and are now the rules that chess arbiters (and players!) need to follow. Read the full story here.
Norowitz Makes Biggest Death Match Comeback in History
Everyone and their cousin knew GM Boris Avrukh needed a lead going into the bullet portion of Death Match 25 on Sunday, June 22nd. When he stretched the margin to five games, most thought the distance was enough. All except his opponent, IM Yaacov Norowitz. The park player and blitz fiend made the largest comeback in Death Match history as he pulled out a win by taking the final five games to clip Avrukh, 14.5-13.5. "As soon as I just started to play and not care, I started playing better," he said. Read the report here.

The 7 Best Things to Do in Side
Side has never failed to attract visitors to its Antalyan coastline. Its ancient town reflects the footprints of its Greco-Roman past, while a string of resort hotels cater to holiday-makers, offering a bevy of attractions along its sun-drenched beaches.
Old Street
A scattering of soaring columns stand like lone sentinnels along the former main road of ancient Side, with visible proof that the Romans had initially paved it with stone slabs.
Apollo Temple
The famous temple near the old harbor dates to the 2nd century AD. The five standing columns, whose frieze shows a series of heads of Medusa, were re-erected in the 1980s.
Roman Ruins
Remnants, such as the Nymphaeum and Vespian Gate, reflect the prosperous era under Roman rule. The Temple of Tyche, stands at the heart of the agora, a former hub of daily life.
This theater could seat an audience of up to 15,000, and the seats still show the inscribed names of patrons. The stage building also features the faces of Comedy and Tragedy.
Manavgat Falls
Located near the town of the same name, enjoy the view of the foamy falls, which are 6.5 feet. high and 131 feet. wide, amid a tranquil and refreshing setting.
Düden Falls
Pack a picnic and head to this national park, where the famous Düden Falls plunge 49 feet into the cool water pools below. The Lower Falls tumble into the sea.
Pamakkule Baths
Pamakkule means "cotton castle," which reflect the snowy white travertine mineral deposits that blanket the terraces. The 17 hot springs have been luring visitors for millennia.
Planning Your Side Visit
How many days to spend in Side?
Avid beach-goers could spend up to one week in Side. The seaside resort town allows visitors not only to soak up the sun and take a dip in the sea, but also have time to appreciate its cultural points and take day-trips to explore the nature of the surrounding area.
Getting around
The mini-buses (dolmuş) are convenient for a short trip around Side. A sign in the window states the destination with a fixed price.
Where to stay in Side
Resort hotels, ranging in size and star rating, straddle the coastline, some of which are a few miles from town. However, there are accommodations in the city center.
Day-trips from Side
For day-trips to the surrounding area, consider the following: It's between 15-30 minutes by mini bus (dolmuş) to the Manavgat Waterfalls. For independence, rent a car to visit Pamakkule Baths (4 hours away) and Duden Falls (1 hour away). Hotels work with tour operators, which offer transportation to these points, but that will likely include a stop or two at a shop (jewelry or leather) along the way and that will prolong the journey.

What People Are Saying About Side
Nice for the intro dive, but not much to see otherwise
Water is warm even out of season, crew if very friendly. The sea is poor and there's a lot of rubbish on the bottom which nobody cares to remove. You can see some fishes though. Boat is comfortable enough and lunch is ok. Some people smoke on board and nobody tries to stop them. Equipment is quite worn.
Great service , very professional personell.
We booked your service and we are more than satisfied. Transport from airport to our hotel in Side was as good as was recommended by other tourists. Our children were very pleased with wifi in tax and cold drinks.
Show was very good, but arrangements not so.
The Tour was too long (8h) and the guide did't tell the timetable. It would be better without the dinner.
Fantastic day out, enjoying beautiful river and having fun
Very well organised tour, good pick up by friendly and funny driver, upon arrival we were split into language groups, everything was swift and explained well, you could also purchase water shoes if you did not have one. Rafts were comfortable and our guide Emre was very experienced and fun so our rafting was really good. I was a bit afraid when he said he will flip the boat over, but he must have changed his mind seeing this, because all trip was aboard. He made rafting really safe and fun. He did look after me when i almost fell overboard. Boat fights were also fun and our boat won every time. It was really good tour and would do it again.
The guides made the day. Very enjoyable!!
We had a great day canyoning and rafting something for all abilities. Very funny, sometimes crazy but safe. Great atmosphere on rafts. Chances to swim, jump from trees, zip wire. Excellent well recommended. Team camaraderie between rafts very good fun.

This review is from: Acer V193WEJb Black 19" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 250 cd/m2 ACM 50000:1(1000:1)
Pros: Clear picture and nice resolution, which is expected of Acer monitors. Good brand.
Cons: No DVI input, this is a huge disappointment as most video cards today use nothing but DVI. Was going to buy an adapter to make it work, but now days they are taking analog out of the DVI connectors in video cards as well. Waste of my time.
Other Thoughts: Good monitor for older PC's that use VGA input, but other than that, get the V193WEJbd model insteadREAD FULL REVIEW
