Biography from the Archives of askART
Born in Montreal, Canada, Philip Guston had a career that vacillated between deeply intense figurative painting and totally abstract painting. He remains well known as one of the leading Abstract Expressionists of the 1950s and 1960s and for his paintings in the last part of his career that combined expressionism and realism. Influences in addition to Abstract Expressionism were paintings by Renaissance Masters, California surrealism and 1930s Mexican muralism.
When Guston was six years old, he moved to Los Angeles with his Russian immigrant parents. In high school, he was a friend of future gestural painter Jackson Pollack, and the two of them got into trouble for circulating a satirical pamphlet and were expelled from school. As an adult Guston continued his focus on social issues, and joining the John Reed Club, aligned himself with left-wing political causes.
To earn money while painting on his own as a young man, Philip Guston worked as a movie extra. He was primarily a self-taught painter except for three months of study at the Otis Art Institute. Major influences during that time were modernists Lorser Feitelson and Reuben Kadish. Guston created a mural panel about American Negroes in American society and depicted a Ku Klux Klansman whipping a black man who had been tied up. Angry local authorities destroyed the mural.
Guston's 1934 travels in Mexico where he observed muralist work, especially that of David Sisqueros, reinforced his interest in creating large murals with strong political-social messages. Reuben Kadish was Guston's traveling companion on this trip, which included the painting of a mural in the former summer palace of Emperor Maximilian.
In 1935, he went to New York City and did representational art including WPA murals for the 1939 World's Fair, the Queensbridge Housing Project in New York City in 1940 and the Social Security Building in Washington DC in 1942. He also did easel paintings beginning 1940, including "Bombardment", which was a political statement about the Spanish Civil War.
In the late 1940s, Philip Guston turned to abstraction with symbolism rooted in the mysteries of a child's world expressed in flattened forms. His first solo exhibition was 1945, and that year he won first prize in the Carnegie Institute annual exhibition. Shortly after, he traveled in Europe and in 1950, settled in New York City. He turned from figurative painting to Abstract Expressionism including a series of "white paintings" that had geometric constructions combined with color and brush-work derived from impressionism. His work grew increasingly large and abstract with heavy texture and much grey and black color.
Then In the 1970s, he returned to figurative painting and increasingly more to recognizable subjects and messages hearkening back to his earlier period of narrative comment on societal subjects. Some of his paintings had common objects, disembodied, and references to urban ugliness and "menacing, gangster-like figures in a deliberately awkward style." (Zellman 953)
Philip Guston combined teaching with his painting career and was a member of the faculties of Yale and Columbia Universities and the University of Iowa. From 1973 until his death in 1980, he taught at Boston University and became an influential figure in Boston art circles.
In 2005, California collector and real-estate developer Edward R. Broida gave a gift of 36 works by Philip Guston to the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Included are twelve paintings, sixteen drawings and eight prints dating from 1938 to 1980.

Biography from Hollis Taggart Galleries
Like many of his contemporaries, the Abstract Expressionist painter Philip Guston was also an accomplished draftsman. Yet unlike his fellow abstract artists, he turned to drawing both as an aid for arriving at painting compositions and as a medium of exploration and creative possibility of its own. Repeatedly over the course of his career, Guston would spend months, even years at a time, concentrating intensely on drawing, until he again felt the need to paint, "anxious to get to the same place, with the actuality of paint and light." (1) Museum of Modern Art Curator of Drawing Magdalena Dambrowski explains that "drawing became his 'problem solving' medium; whether quickly noting a fresh thought, or elaborating a developing sequence of thoughts, it helped him to work out new formal and pictorial solutions." (2)
The importance Guston placed on drawing—as both a medium in its own right and as an underpinning for painting—derived from his own interests in studying artists from the past. Yet he rejected formal schooling, and drew most of his understanding of art history from books, exhibitions, and viewing fellow artists at work. At twelve, the transplanted Canadian began to draw, often hidden in a closet in his parents' Los Angeles home, with only the dim illumination of a single incandescent bulb. Encouraged in his artistic promise, in 1930 he received a scholarship to take classes at the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles; disappointed in the traditional art curriculum, he left after only three months. It was at the Otis Art Institute, however, where he met Musa McKim, the artist and poet who would become his wife seven years later. During this period of the artist's early development, he based his technique on a close study of the art of Giorgio de Chirico and painters of the Italian Renaissance, such as Paolo Uccello, Andrea Mantegna and Piero della Francesca. He appreciated the three-dimensional, architectural space of these artists' paintings, which he fused with a compact, fractured, Cubist pictorial space.
In the 1930s, Guston became increasingly involved in political issues, answering Mexican artists' calls to use art as a tool for social awareness. In 1934, he joined the mural division of the Works Progress Administration. At this time, the Montreal-born Phillip Goldstein adopted the pseudonym Philip Guston. In late 1935, the artist moved to New York, rooming with Jackson Pollock, an old friend he had known since their days together at Manual Arts High School in Los Angeles. Among the murals he worked on were "Maintaining America's Skills," now destroyed, for the façade of the WPA Building at the World's Fair of 1939, the Queensbridge Housing Project in New York, and the Social Security Building in Washington, D.C. The style of his mural work owed much to Paolo Uccello's "The Battle of San Romano," especially in the representation of figures in space. Another important source of inspiration was Picasso, whose major retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in 1939 was an influential event for most American painters.
In 1940, Guston left the mural project, and for several years served as artist-in-residence at the State University of Iowa and Washington University. He participated in the Carnegie Institute's 1945 exhibition, "Painting in the United States," receiving first prize for his submission. In the same year, Midtown Galleries mounted his first New York solo exhibition. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Guston participated in prominent group exhibitions, one-man shows, and international events, such as the Venice Biennale and the Bienal de São Paolo. He also received several notable fellowships and awards, including the prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship, the Altman Prize from the National Academy of Design, a Ford Foundation grant, the Prix de Rome from the American Academy in Rome, and the Art Institute of Chicago's Flora Mayer Witkowsky prize. He continued to teach (mainly drawing) at New York University and at the Pratt Institute until 1959.
Like many of his contemporaries, Guston spent the years after World War II developing a personal style and vision out of the diverse range of realist and abstract influences that challenged American artists of his era. In the early 1950s, he formulated a lyrical abstract style, which towards the end of the decade evolved into single dark images embedded in gray paint. These works stemmed from a desire for a "tabula rasa," or in the artist's words, "simply to locate a form. So I use the most elementary way of making a mark, which is black on white…." (3) A lively member of the Eighth Street Club, Guston formed lasting friendships with Robert Motherwell and John Cage, who both shared his interest in Zen philosophy and Existentialism. He also frequented the Cedar Tavern, a popular watering hole for artists and often the site of a lively debate abut artistic ideals and the nature of creativity. Like his fellow Abstract Expressionist painters, he was represented by the Sidney Janis Gallery, and exhibited his work there regularly until 1961.
In the mid-1960s, the artist explored a new spatial structure, where non-objective forms appeared to exist in different locations in depth, on different planes. The turmoil in the United States surrounding the response to the Vietnam War prompted a desire for the artist to "get into more of what I call 'tangibility.' I wanted 'touchable' things." (4) The forms, while sometimes recognizable, do not inhabit a coherent, naturalistic space, and thereby create troubling, even tragic, moods, full of unaccountable events and misunderstood emotions. Guston shied away from purely realistic drawing, feeling that it would not have had the spectral mood of his veiled evocations of race relations, in the hooded figures, for example, or the subtle hint of law in the large tomes intimating Moses' Ten Commandments.
In 1965, the artist stopped painting altogether, to completely devote his efforts to drawing. (He returned to painting four years later.) From 1968 until his death, the artist produced drawings and paintings based on figurative motifs that were expressive of universal themes. In 1980, Guston died from a heart attack, only one month after a major retrospective of the artist's work opened at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

Examining the social and historical context of Robinson's introduction into white organized baseball, both on and off the field, Tygiel also tells the often neglected stories of other African-American players - such as Satchel Paige, Roy Campanella, Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron - who helped transform our national pastime into an integrated game.
"Short on accurate facts. Politically twisted to"
As soon as she graduated from high school, Pamela Des Barres headed for the Sunset Strip, where she knocked on rock stars' backstage doors and immersed herself in the drugs, danger, and ecstasy of the freewheeling 1960s. Over the next 10 years she had affairs with Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Keith Moon, Waylon Jennings, Chris Hillman, Noel Redding, and Jim Morrison, among others. She traveled with Led Zeppelin; lived in sin with Don Johnson; turned down a date with Elvis Presley; and was close friends with Robert Plant, Gram Parsons, Ray Davies, and Frank Zappa.
At 28,251 feet, K2 might be almost 800 feet shorter than Everest, but it's a far harder climb. It will kill you on the way up and the way down. Mick Conefrey guides us through the early story of the legendary mountain and the extraordinary attempts that led up to its first ascent in 1954 - these are tales of riveting drama and unimaginable tragedy.
"First Review? It was an "okay" book"
Charlotte Stewart is known by millions of fans worldwide for her role as the beloved schoolteacher, Miss Beadle, on the iconic TV show, Little House on the Prairie, currently broadcast in syndication in more than 100 countries around the world. Here for the first time an adult cast member writes about the experience of making the show - the challenges, the joys, and the sometimes-turbulent behind-the-scenes relationships.
The 50th Law, combines the unique talents of hip hop and pop culture icon 50 Cent (aka Curtis Jackson) and Robert Greene, bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power. This is a "bible" for success in life and work based on a single principle: fear nothing. Containing intimate stories from 50 Cent's life on the streets and in the boardroom; his rise to worldwide fame and acclaim after the release of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin'.
"The Fearlessness Approach"
Like all A-Z books, this one illustrates the alphabet - but instead of "A is for apple", A is for Angela - as in Angela Davis, the iconic political activist. B is for Billie Jean King, who shattered the glass ceiling of sports; C is for Carol Burnett, who defied assumptions about women in comedy; D is for Dolores Huerta, who organized farmworkers; and E is for Ella Baker, who mentored Dr. Martin Luther King and helped shape the civil rights movement.

CROMWELL, Conn. - Daniel Berger says he's healthy again and hoping to regain the form that helped him to his first PGA Tour title two months ago.
Jim Herman and Jamie Lovemark share the lead at the Shell Houston Open, but three proven winners - Henrik Stenson, Dustin Johnson and Russell Henley – are in the hunt, just one back.
Russell Henley started the third round in style by holing his second shot for eagle on No. 1, and then he tacked on birdies at Nos. 3 and 4 to start 4 under par through four holes.

Conference & Closing: Tribute to Carlos Fuentes, with Julio Ortega
Physical borders, as well as mental and metaphorical barriers, abound in Carlos Fuentes' work as much as in his intellectual biography. His work is an art of breaking borders, but also a critique of the proliferation of new limits and, not infrequently, a celebration of the undoing of frontiers.
Fuentes writes that the border between the US and Mexico is "a scar." But it is also a crossroads, a painful place, and a shared destiny. Fuentes'work offers a border-crossing map, open and creative, where literature is the permanent construction of an open space in language and dialogue.
Please join us for this exceptional event.

Went to the Citadelle and 3 Museums during a drastic winter downpour but it all added to the experience. The Volti exhibit is breathtaking especially arranged in the adjoining stone caves. Admission is free to all museums. Walk around the grounds, there is a hidden little tiled roof hut that has amazing views of both Villefranche ports. If you walk...
We had dinner three nights in a row. Excellent food. Great service and comfortable ambience.
Highly recommend.
Interesting collection of artifacts, spent a pleasant hour just wandering around with the other tourists.
All the museums and exhibitions inside the La Citadel are free of cost. We had a good time checking out all the exhibitions and the quality of art exhibited was really superior. Must visit in case you are an art lover and have free time on hand.
If you are staying in VilleFranche go to the tourist office and do the guided tour they offer on a Friday morning. It is 1.5 hours & costs 5 euros each. You get a guided tour of the area ,the Citadel which included the museum with the Volti sculptures. It was a fantastic tour & our knowledgable guide Amber could...
We were looking forward to seeing the works of art but were not allowed entrance into the museums because they were preparing for a private event. We then decided to have a walk around the gardens of the Citadelle but were asked to leave by an official who was locking the gates half an hour before the published closing time.
Interesting ...we have a lot of time, if I did not this wouldn't be a priority. Villefranche sur mer is a lovely village.
You can easily spend an hour or two wandering around looking at the interesting sculptures, art gallery, views and various other interesting places within the citadel. Definitely worth a visit if in the area.
We love this imposing structure and its repurposed use. The sculptures and garden are beautiful. The views,stunning! It would be wonderful to attend the outdoor concerts there in season.Very much worth a visit.
We went to see this 16th-century fortress, which has free admission. It is mostly art museums and administrative offices now, not many fort artifacts remain. It is worth seeing if you are in town and interested in art.

No matter how good a machine has been engineered, it is bound to break down one day or the other. Everyone has experienced a breakdown while travelling on their two-wheelers and has somehow managed to get it fixed by a roadside mechanic. But the problem amplifies when you are cruising aboard an American V-twin in the far countryside and it breaks down. This is one of the main reasons why most of the big bike owners in our country avoid touring on their mean machines. But if you are a Harley-Davidson owner you need not worry about these things as the American two-wheeler manufacturer has launched its 24x7 roadside assistance programme. The new initiative provides on-road assistance support to registered Harley-Davidson owners in all nine dealership locations across the country. The programme has been initiated in association with India Assistance, a 100 per cent subsidiary of leading international assistance company Mapfre Assistance. Also read: Harley-Davidson Fat Bob : Road Test
Speaking on the roadside assistance programme, Anoop Prakash, Managing Director, Harley-Davidson India, said, "As a brand built around the customer, Harley-Davidson is committed to providing our riders with a superior ownership experiences. With the team at India Assistance, we are now offering a menu of important services, 24x7 support, and trucks that can safely and efficiently tow our entire model line-up. The roadside assistance program provides a sense of safety and comfort to our customers who can now cruise Indian roads with greater peace of mind. Our investment is in line with our long–term commitment to lead the development of leisure motorcycling in India."
The 24x7 Services include fuel delivery, transportation in case of breakdown/accident/flat tyre support, provision of local taxi, dedicated helpline and relay of urgent messages. The geographic scope of the Roadside Assistance Services shall be within 150 km radius from the nearest Harley-Davidson dealership and if the rider is beyond the 150km range, assistance will be available on a paid basis at a rate of Rs 40/km as towing charges and Rs 25/km as petrol delivery charges for km covered above 150 km. One of the cool features of the new scheme is that the bike is entitled to the same benefits even after a change of ownership.

Iron Man 3: The Low-Down
by Jo Ann Skousen | Posted May 08, 2013
Literature is fraught with examples of the hero who longs to be ordinary: the prince who covets the life of the pauper, the mermaid who trades her magical tail for the legs of a human, the gods who walk the earth and mate with mortals, the bewitching bride who abandons her powers to marry a mortal. These are just a few.
Iron Man is such a hero. He is torn between a sense of duty to protect his country from the attacks of weaponized soldiers and his desire to enjoy the luxurious lifestyle his successful entrepreneurship affords him. In Iron Man 3 he spends much of his time outside the super suit, fighting the bad guys not as Iron Man but as his alter ego, Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.).
I like Iron Man. He's my favorite superhero. First, his alter ego, Tony Stark, is anything but a "mild mannered" Clark Kent. He's spunky, witty, and unpredictable. Sometimes it's hard to know whether he's a visionary or a maniac. Or just manic. I also like the fact that he isn't stoic. When he gets punched, he bruises and bleeds. In this episode he suffers panic attacks too.
Stark is a scientist, not a mutant as most of the superheroes are. He designed and built his own superhero suit to counteract a nearly deadly injury to his heart. He calls himself "a mechanic" because ultimately, like most practical scientists, he fixes things. He's also an entrepreneur. Yes, he's wealthy, but he earned his wealth through intelligence, capital, and hard work. I like that.
OK, he also made much of his money by creating weapons of war, so I can't give him an A-plus as a libertarian . . . but hey, he's just responding to the market! And it's the Department of Defense, not War, that he helps, right? But it does bother him that his scientific experiments contributed to the technology for creating the weaponized soldiers who are now attacking America. He feels responsible.
Superheroes have become our modern mythology, representing the changing values and beliefs of a changing culture.
As this episode begins, Stark is no longer the bon vivant playboy of previous iterations; he is now in a "committed relationship" with Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow), his long-time, longsuffering assistant. Pepper is no longer a wallflower in the background but a buff and courageous überwoman who even gets to "suit up" in the Iron Man paraphernalia a couple of times. Nevertheless, she is kidnapped, early on, by an evil anatomist (Guy Pearce) who has created a new army of weaponized soldiers. Meanwhile, the world is threatened by an Osama-like villain known as "The Mandarin" (Ben Kingsley) who is taking credit for suicide bombers exploding in public places throughout the world. Tony spends most of the film fighting these hybrid soldiers, thwarting the maniac, and rescuing his damsel. He vows: "No politics or Pentagon this time — just good old fashioned revenge."
While chasing down clues to the bad guys in a small Tennessee town, Tony runs into a cute kid named Harley (Ty Simpkins) who helps him fix his Iron Man suit and get it recharged. The sweet, casual interplay between these two characters creates the best part of the film. Tony doesn't have any experience with kids, and as a result, he talks to Harley in the way he would to a grown-up, and Harley responds as though they were best buds. Their conversations are charming and natural.
Iron Man 3 is not as good as the original, but it is certainly better than the second episode. The story is tighter, the villains are stronger, and the character development is deeper. Stan Lee, who created Spider-Man, Iron Man, and many other superheroes of the Marvel comic book franchise, makes his usual cameo appearance, this time as the judge at a Tennessee beauty pageant. Jon Favreau, who directed the first two Iron Man movies, chose to produce and act in this one instead: he plays Tony's overzealous bodyguard, Happy. It's not great filmmaking by any means, but it's interesting as a cultural artifact.
Superhero movies are the safest bet for Hollywood studios today. They require big budgets, but they bring home big box office receipts. No fewer than four are slated for release this summer. Fans attend midnight showings on the first day of release, and audiences applaud enthusiastically throughout the show. It's almost like attending an old tent revival meeting. This isn't terribly surprising, because superheroes have become our modern mythology, representing the changing values and beliefs of a changing culture. The various superheroes continue to cross over into each other's mythologies, with numerous references to each other within their separate movies. It is worth watching the films if only to see how their characters and values change from year to year, and to observe the cultural phenomenon they have become.

Hunting in my tank
I came in to work this morning and saw a flury of activity in the little 3 gallon tank in my office. The one Ghost Shrimp in the tank was literally stalking and hunting the Cardinal Tetras. He'd creep and crawl really slow until he got relatively close to one of them. Then he'd lunge with incredible speed at the fish and try to grasp it with his claws. He actually got one claw around the tail of one Cardinal at one point but the Cardinal managed to break free.
As soon as I realized what was going on I put some food in the tank. The shrimp immediately started up with his normal behavior of scavenging food off the ground and left the Tetras alone.
I guess I need to feed them more to keep the shrimp from getting hungry and hunting the fish.

I've always loved the two ghost shrimp I have in my tank. at some point i'm going to get a couple more. They're always really active and attempt to swim upside down on the surface to steal any food they can from the fish. At one point the female had a big group of eggs but they've randomly dissapeared at this point :( I hope to someday keep a group of em.

i wouldnt try to keep shrimp in a tank with anything but the smaller tetras and rasboras, and thats if you have alot of plant cover and driftwood for them to hide under......The smaller danios in some of my tanks have eaten some of the shrimp, but for the mostpart leave them alone........I have red cherries in a 30 gallon with gold tetras, HY511 Tetras, harlequin rasboras and brilliant rasboras and the shrimp are thriving and breeding.........

Whispers, whispers, a riot everywhere,
Hear them curse, hear them swear.
Hear them cheer, hear them scream,
Hear them suffocating me.
Listen to the monster in me,
Hear it coming free.
Tearing its way from the inside,
Hear me screaming words as I die.
Whispers, whispers, a riot in Hell,
Hear a thud as we fell.
I've tried so hard to run away,
Yet the shackles make me stay.
This cage is dark, alone and strong,
The thing in me is unnatural and wrong.
So many times I've lied,
So many times I've tried,
So many times I've died,
Committed suicide.
Whispers, whispers, finally quiet,
Except the laughter of victory, as loud as the riot.

Where is the water today.
Dead fish cant cry.
No food in the net.
Pollution pipe vomits death.
BUT, I need water.
Foul odor of the stream.

Crystal wonder fallen cesspool.
My crying tears are pure.
Tissue wipes mans mistakes away.
YET - foul water in the lakes.

Type: Bug
Status: Closed
Priority: Major
Resolution: Fixed
Component/s: Process Doc, Standing Rules
References are to the August 10 version
Earlier confusion over the distinction between JSR "ballots" and EC "votes" has mostly been cleared up.
However, the Standing Rules document still contains (lines 112-113) a reference to the JSR ballot process. This seems unnecessary (particularly since it simply references the Process Document.)
The Process Document should define the process for holding JSR-related Ballots, while the Standing Rules should define the process for EC voting. These are two completely different processes, and we should clearly distinguish between them.
One way to do so is by terminology - by using the term "ballot" for the more formal JSR-related ballots and "voting" for the "advisory" EC votes.
For that reason, I suggest that we replace the term "ballot" in the Standing Rules with "vote."
Note that the section beginning on line 145 is labeled Electronic Voting rather than Electronic Ballots, and earlier in the document we say "Missing two meetings in a row (whether teleconference or face-to-face meetings) results in loss of JSR ballot and EC voting privileges." Both of these examples, I believe, demonstrate the value of making this disctinction.
Eduardo stated in a comment on another issue:
Regarding the issue of "vote" vs. "ballot" I've tried to harmonize the "Electronic Voting" section by eliminating the word "ballot" completely from it.
I'm interpreting that as a proposed fix for this issue, and am marking this resolved.
We can then review to see if it's OK

As I looked down upon several hundred metres of untracked powder – known in these parts as "cold smoke" – I realised that Jim's early morning phone call, and his advice to "Get your Brit ass in gear!", delivered in order that we might be the first to hit the slopes, had been a far better move than it appeared in the harsh light of dawn.
I set off, shin-deep powder becoming knee- then thigh-deep as I descended, "cold smoke" billowing behind me as a million or so British Columbian snow crystals took to the air. Lower down the slope I hit pine glades, skimming between the trees, before eventually bouncing out on to an open groomed run that reminded me I was actually in a ski resort and not the British Columbian backcountry.
The prosaically named "4b" run that I'd just done – along with locals Jim Green and Ann-Marie Seguin as well as ski patrollers Louis Lajoie and Robin Beech – is just one of seven named runs on Grey Mountain, a recently opened extension of the ski resort of Red Mountain in southern BC. The runs get steeper and more challenging as the number gets higher, and as with most things at Red, it's all a little off-the-wall – this new ski area is accessed by snow cat, rather than ski lift, for a mere C$10 (£5.50) a ride.
Yes, for a mere 10 Canadian dollars you can enjoy cat skiing at Grey Mountain. Admittedly, that 10 bucks entitles you just one ride up the mountain, but it's quite possible to get in eight or more runs a day, which is much the same as you'd get in a regular cat-ski operation which would cost three times the price.
Each time you hit Grey in the cat you'll be skiing with just 12 other passengers, so it takes a long time for the terrain to get tracked out. Indeed, wherever you choose to ski, you'll have plenty to enjoy on your own. Perhaps the only downside is that the cat operates on a "first come, first served" basis, so you have to wait in line for your ride. However, Red is such a quiet ski hill that you rarely have to wait for more than 20 minutes.
Until recently, Grey Mountain was only accessible to ski tourers, but in recent years runs have been cut through the forests in some places, while elsewhere the trees have been thinned to allow safe tree skiing. Some of the runs are groomed, and others remain untouched, which provides appeal for both experienced cat skiers and first timers. Indeed, if you've never been cat skiing before, there couldn't be a better introduction. Rather than chance a minimum outlay of C$150 (£84) for a half-day skiing with a regular cat-ski operation, you can shell out a fraction of that amount to see if you like it.
And I think you will. As Roly Worsfold, another local I skied with, told me: "It was good here before; now it's even gooder…"
On this particular day, it was so good that we only did one cat run, since there was plenty of powder to be found without having to wait in line for the cat. While Jim and the ski patrollers had to head back to work after our run, Ann-Marie and I hit the glades of Powder Fields and Jumbo Gully on Red's best-established ski hill Granite Mountain. Meanwhile, just round the corner in an area known reasonably enough as Paradise, Roly was enjoying equally good conditions on and between the pistes until mid-afternoon. This was despite the fact that Paradise has less than a dozen named runs (and lots of tree skiing in between) and in Europe would easily be skied out by 10am on a powder day.
Since I skied it, Grey Mountain has also become accessible by ski lift, so the cat-ski operation is moving to Kirkup Mountain, next to Grey. It will provide more of the same mix of virtually deserted piste and off-piste skiing for all abilities. This stealthy expansion at Red has been going on for a decade. Indeed, Red has seen some of the largest expansion of any ski resort in North America recently, yet it still retains the feel of a small, local ski hill.
The resort's satellite town of Rossland, about three miles away, is actually the oldest ski town in western Canada, and there's still a hearty backwoods feel to it – lumber trucks grunt along the wide main street past ski and bike emporiums, while little coffee houses and bookshops offer a warm invitation to passing ski tourists.
I found myself regularly struggling to decide whether to dine at Drift Izakaya, the contemporary sushi restaurant on Columbia Avenue, or hit The Flying Steamshovel on Washington Street, a classic bar and burger joint named after what was allegedly one of the first-ever helicopters, which flew – albeit very briefly – from the same site in 1902.
Both the town and the ski hill would still be recognisable to men like Olaus Jeldness, the Norwegian mining engineer attracted by the region's gold-mining opportunities over 100 years ago. He went on to organise ski races and ski jumping competitions on Red Mountain, and was the first Canadian ski champion. A statue has recently been erected in the middle of town. He might not recognise the cat skiing – but then few 21st-century skiers would recognise a cat ski operation that costs only $10 a run either.

So, I made one. One problem with my setup is when it comes to in-cab sound, the noise from my cold air intake drownds out the sound from the muffler. * Also didn't know at the time the muffler had a pinhole leak at the inlet. That has since been changed but no real difference in the sounds in the video. I created this video with the YouTube Video Editor (http://www.youtube.com/editor)

Gartner predicts that by 2020, 30 percent of global enterprises will have been directly compromised by an independent group of cyber activists or cyber criminals. Cyber crime is now considered a profession; malware and exploit kits are created and sold with guarantees to evade security controls. Further, Gartner estimates that while businesses spent more than $71 billion on information security in 2014, nearly $400 billion was lost globally as a result of cyber crime.
Security today is based on the premise that one can detect whether something is good or bad (e.g., web, email, files). This premise is fundamentally flawed as malware continues to evade even the latest security technologies. In this slideshow, Menlo Security CTO Kowsik Guruswamy has identified five different malware attacks that have had a profound impact on the cyber security industry.

Bad Driving Compilation
A collection of lane crossers and driving fails recorded on Mulholland Hwy over the last 6 Months. Celica at end is same as one from beginning, he crashed a couple turns after he passed me. Mulholland Highway in Los Angeles has been a popular riding area for motorcycles & fast cars for decades. Car and motorcycle clubs are regular visitors every weekend. Jay Leno can often be found at the famous Rockstore and at a view point called Lookout talking with fellow motor enthusiasts. Crashes are common as well as a heavy police presence on most weekends. The Snake is a two mile section of Mulholland above the Rockstore. Riders usually will make multiple runs allowing me to move from corner to corner when assembling rider videos. The speed limit is 45 mph, most riders are not going much over that so the majority of tickets are crossing the line, wheelies or equipment violations. Bicycles are up here all the time but motorcycles and bikes seem to do fine together as long as the cyclists are willing to stay to the right. Cars passing them are a bigger problem since there is no shoulder and most turns are blind. I mainly shoot on the last corner coming up because I can see much of the road and photogs are expected. The turn gets it's fair share of crashes but people crash other places also just no one is filming. The top corner I shoot seem to average one crash every couple weeks in the summer, out of many hundreds of riders. 911 emergency services are rarely called and accidents are seldom reported since most riders do not get injured severely.

Cyclist in serious condition
A female cyclist was in serious condition Saturday after an apparent fall off a bicycle on Newport Coast Road near the 73, Newport Beach Fire Department said in a statement.
It is the second cycling incident in the last week.
At about 8:08 a.m. Saturday, fire personnel received a report of a bicyclist down, and a paramedic assessment fire engine and a paramedic transport unit responded, according to a fire department news release.
"Upon arrival, fire department personnel found an female cyclist on the side of the road unconscious from an apparent fall from her road bicycle," the release said. "Bystanders at the scene, including the woman's husband, were tending to the female prior to the fire department's arrival."
The woman, whose name wasn't released, was immobilized, treated for a suspected head injury, and taken to Mission Hospital Trauma Center within minutes. At the time of transport, her condition was serious, the release said. No details were available from the hospital.
That intersection has been indentified by the Newport Beach Bicycle Safety Committee as one that's particularly dangerous to cyclists.
Authorities who are investigating the cause of the incident said while "there was no indication that motor vehicles were a factor, we would also like to remind drivers to share the road with cyclists." The female cyclist was wearing approved bike safety gear.
Saturday's incident was the second in less than a week involving a cyclist.
On Wednesday, a cyclist and car collided at the intersection of Harbor View Drive and Sea Lane, just off Macarthur Boulevard. Police are investigating the cause of the collision, which didn't result in serious injury to the cyclist or driver, police said.
The safety of cyclists in the city was thrown into sharp relief after two cyclists were killed on city roadways within one day of each other last year. On Sept. 14, Sarah Leaf was struck and killed at East Coast Highway and Bayside Drive. The following day, Catherine Campion-Ritz, a beloved local physician, was struck and killed by a hit-and-run driver on Newport Coast Drive.
Since then, officials have approved a bike safety-improvement fund and have pushed for street markings and signage to remind to motorists and bicyclists that they share the roads.
