The Cardinals should not have said anything about the Dodgers but they are not wrong for showing how pumped up they are or how excited they are after a great play, great hit, or getting out of a jam especially during the post season. I am a baseball player and when one of your teammates or yourself does something to help you team you show your excitement without thinking because of your love for the game. I love seeing professional athletes show their excitement and joy after making a great play because it show their love for the game. Those of you who are bashing the Cardinals for doing this obviously have not played and loved a game so much that whenever you or a teammate did something to help you team in a big situation you just could not contain your excitement.

One of the best things about writing cookbooks is being able to share my favorite recipes with others. With New Year's Eve in mind, I've assembled some nibbles for celebrating what we all hope will be a positive, prosperous new year. One of these recipes comes from my latest book: Macho Nachos: 50 Toppings, Salsas, and Spreads for Irresistible Snacks and Light Meals. Think: Super Bowl and Macho Nachos.
Hungry for New Year's factoids and trivia? Here are a few tidbits to toss out while waiting for the big ball to drop, or to spice up your New Year's Day events:
Rose Parade: In Southern California, where I live, many of us will still be digging out from the devastation of the worst fires in the state's history, but Pasadena's annual Tournament of Roses Parade is a reminder that life here is still full of joy. The parade has a unique feature: The floats are decorated entirely with flowers and vegetation. The parade dates back to 1886, when members of the Valley Hunt Club adorned their carriages with blossoms, in celebration of the local orange crop. (Sadly, most of the orange orchards in this region have been replaced by shopping centers and suburbs.) Carriages eventually gave way to flowered floats, and the City of Pasadena became the parade's sponsor. The New Year's football game was first played in 1906, but didn't become a real tradition until 1916. In between the sport of choice was chariot racing.
Resolutions: If returning your neighbor's tools is at the top of your New Year's resolutions list, you're not alone. The ancient Babylonians started the resolutions tradition, and giving back their neighboring farmer's tools was their main concern.
Mummers Parade: Another elaborate New Year's Day parade takes place in Philadelphia: The Mummers Parade. Mummers means disguise in German. The term mummers derives from the costumed portrayals of the play St. George and the Dragon, and Swedish settlers' practice of extending their "Second Day Christmas" celebrations to and including New Year's Day. Today, the parade is famous for its elaborate costumes, satires, and performances, with participants divided into four prize-winning categories: Comics, Fancy Costumes, Strings, and Fancy Brigade. The first official Mummer's parade began in 1901, but unofficially, the Philadelphia area saw rowdy parade groups as early as the 1770s. Even before then, the custom was influenced by the 400 BC Roman festival of Saturnalias. People marched in masks as a day of satire and revelry, including noise-making to drive out demons from the New Year.
Food Traditions: To ensure good luck in the New Year, every culture seems to have some form of food tradition. The Spanish eat twelve grapes at midnight, one for each chime of the clock. In Southern United States, black eyed peas and the dish known as Hoppin' John are the vehicles for good fortune. Greeks enjoy pastries with a special gold or silver coin baked inside, known as St. Basil's Cakes (in honor of a founding saint of the Greek Orthodox Church). Scots eat three-cornered biscuits known as hogmanays, and haggis, a sheep's stomach stuffed with revved up oatmeal.
A happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year to all!

(re)discover theatre presents a double feature of two different and complimentary holiday acts that grow from endearing to uproarious.
Part one:
Moot Pulk combines the physical elegance of dance and the naivete of the clown in an exploration that is delightfully humorous and simultaneously heart breaking. In her loneliness, a music box ballerina creates a clown out of her imagination. In a relationship that echoes that of Clara and the Nutcracker, they explore the dynamic between creation and creator. Moot Pulk's simplicity, honesty and physical command is profoundly moving and heart-warming.
Featuring Quinten Quintero and Taylor Quintero
Part two:
It's Beginning To Look A lot Like Menopause is Maureen SanDiego's special blend of original arrangements of popular Holiday tunes with her signature storytelling. Known for her deliciously ostentatious delivery, Maureen brings bawdy belting and belly laughs at no expense but her own, sharing and OVER-sharing some of her fondest holiday memories. Bing Crosby meets Paul Lynde in this Holiday mash-up with a Cabaret flair.
Starring Maureen SanDiego and featuring Velveeta Velour and Michael Evans.

Lysistrata - (re)discover theatre is going at it again. This time we are breaking down gender roles with a hot new adaptation of Aristophanes' anti-war sex farce Lysistrata. This production penetrates the absurdity of gender expectations by inserting a new and different mix of male and female actors on both sides of this 'blue balling' conflict. To spice things up, a male and female actor will alternate the roles of Lysistrata and the Magistrate every other night, giving a unique dual perspective on gender. Want to get in on the action? To ensure your satisfaction, we are allowing you to pick your gender for the night as well. We have surprises in store for both. Choose wisely. (This is the easiest gender reassignment you'll ever get.)

(RE)DISCOVER THEATRE PRESENTS "HOME" AT THE CHICAGO FRINGE FESTIVAL Aug. 31st, Sept 6th and 7th
(Chicago, IL) (re)discover theatre is proud to announce their latest production, HOME, a new devised piece inspired by the American folk song "Wayfaring Stranger". This summer, audiences are able to catch HOME at the Chicago Fringe Festival. (re)discover is excited to share in the Fringe's mission to unite daring theatregoers with emerging and boundary-pushing performing artists from around the world, while engaging non-traditional audiences through a commitment to low ticket prices and through outreach into artistically under served communities. HOME is being devised by an ensemble of Chicago actors, including actor/musician Pamela Mae Davis of (re)discover theatre's As You Like It, actor/musician Jenny Lynn Christoffersen of Collaboraction Theatre Company, (re)discover company member Jon Matteson, and (re)discover co-artistic director Matthew Wills, all under the direction of Ann Kreitman.
"HOME is shaping into a modern tragedy. We improvise scenes, record them, and then ensemble members step aside and write a draft of the scene. Every cast member's voice will be present in this piece." said co-artistic director Matthew Wills. "What's most exciting is how new, raw, and collaborative this piece is," he added.
HOME is part of the Chicago Fringe Festival, and performs August 31st 2013 at 7 PM, September 6th 2013
(re)discover theatre is proud to announce their newest production, Jason and (Medea), a fresh and contemporary take on the classical myth by (re)discover ensemble member Jessica Shoemaker, whose work was most recently seen this spring in (re)discover's adaptation of As You Like It. This summer, audiences are able to catch Jason and (Medea) completely free of charge, in the company's effort to engage Chicago theatregoers in new, fresh work at an affordable and accessible rate. Utilizing contemporary poetic style, heightened movement and modern language, the play follows Jason and Medea through the part of their story that never gets told: the love story. Jason and (Medea) explores sex, gender, love and power in a funny, aching, accessible and timeless context.

(re)discover theatre presents AS YOU LIKE IT
(re)discover theatre continues to pick-up steam, kicking off their second season with a bold adaptation of Shakespeare's As You Like It, adapted by Jessica Shoemaker and directed by Matthew Wills. The company is known for tackling devised work and language plays with a focus on text, relationship and discovery. Audiences are engaged in a visceral experience that feels anything but traditional. Says adaptor Shoemaker: "For us, exploring these "classical" works isn't a delicate excavation of an ancient work… We believe that classical works have survived so long because they continue to be vibrantly alive. They were meant to be taken outside the box and played with. Hard." (re)discover theatre has been hailed as "shocking, sexy, and haunting" by the Chicago Reader, and "inventive and authentic" by Chicago Theater Beat. You won't want to miss their tragicomic take on Shakespeare's most famous love-comedy with touches of theatrical clowning and live music. Tickets are $15 at the door and $12 in advance. To purchase tickets visit www.rediscovertheatre.com The production opens on Valentine's Day and runs through February 24th 2013, playing at 1244 W. Thorndale Ave., Chicago, IL 60660, Magnolia St. entrance.

No one did mention anything about not including some form for Darkness Falls in Camelot Unchained. If anything, Mark did on several occasions post his fondness of DF. You are making a mistake to simply dismiss the chance of something like Darkness Falls, just because the traditional PvE will be abscent.
No PvE is NOT the same as No NPCs at all. We will have guards, animals, merchants...and you will have to fight for ressources and other objectives. By no means is it impossible to develop a Darkness Falls dungeon with RvR-objectives instead of PvE mobs to slay.
Camelot Unchained Fanpage
As a baseline for my funding if we received no rewards I'd throw $10 to it. If I have to pay $60 for beta 1 and then do not have to buy it at launch, I'm in again.

So instead of an elaborate multi-tiered dungeon with massive bosses of ranging difficulties, truck loads of gold, and all the salvage you can carry, you would turn DF into Labby? An arena that draws PVP away from RVR because its easier to get fights. A place that could have 100s of people in it running loops while the Frontiers were stone dead. Or PoC? A poorly engineered underground highway that connects the realms. Its only purpose is for PL groups and running relics (sometimes).
I love your game. It sounds awesome. However, at this time, I'm finding it hard to reach into my pocket for such innovation!
All this talk about old school comminity, goal-oriented pvp, and 3 faction warfare does make me curious, so I'll probably throw some spare change their way.

When it launches on kickstarter im finally out of economy hell, so yeeeees, and then some I have funded Elite Dangerous and War For The Overworld in the past backers get the option to get beta access and the full game at a cheaper price than at release, so why not...
Woopeee fkn dooo

The poor guy was just trying to make the system work and he got hit from all directions at once including a very upset GM who was shouting "Mythic seconds WTF is Mythic seconds?"
Yes, it was a nightmare.
Certainly the programmer involved has to take responsibility for having the idea and implementing it, but I notice that you don't actually speak about how YOU felt about that particular solution, or your involvement in its implementation. I mean... you were in charge: you must have known about it before it was implement, and you must have decided that it was a "good" solution (even if temporary) to the problem? I can't say that I know the first thing about leading a large team in developing and designing an MMO; there's every chance that you were detached from the particulars of "mythic seconds" at the time, and only later made aware of the problem it created.
Everything you seem to be saying right now is in the right direction for the niche you're aiming to fill with Camelot Unchained. That said, you can say the same about everything that was said pre-Warhammer Online, and you can say the same about everything that was said by Bioware pre-SWTOR's launch. You can say it about pretty much any major studio working on a major game; part and parcel of marketing the title is saying the right things, even where those things don't end up being "specifically" true.
As I said, I'll certainly keep an eye on things and may even show some active support. I can't say that I'll be a backer; I simply don't have the money (which will shock some people, I'm sure). If I did, I would probably back more out of curiosity for the future of your developer-player dialogue (it's an interesting "experiment", and I look forward to seeing what comes of it even if I don't get to take part in it). So you'll just have to take my love and kisses, I'm afraid. It's all I have to offer.
LOL, do you know how many people were working on WAR at the time? I can't give out the exact number but it was more than 300. If I knew what every person was doing every day in a micro-managing sort of way, I wouldn't have gotten anything done for my work, EA's work and other studio work. Nope, I had no clue that was how it worked until I saw the stuff explode on the forums. When it was explained to me, it made sense technically but I don't think you'll find a studio GM who could tell you what any one programmer was writing as a comment to his code, that's why you have leads, managers, development directors, producers, COO and then me.
As to what I'm saying now versus then, well, not exactly. The difference with Warhammer was that part of my job was to help build buzz for the game to compensate for an anysmally low marketing budget when compared to games like WoW, CoD, etc. As you might remember, WAR got no TV commercials, no big marketing events, etc. even though we broke EA's sales record for preorders for a PC product. The reasons are complicated and JR talked about them publicly (too many products coming out at the same time) so I've moved on from that but it meant that guys like PB, JH and I had to do lots of PR stuff. PB/JH ended up doing more than me but we all had to help sell our game. If you go back and look at some of the things I said about WAR and compared them to what I'm saying today, I would hope you would see the difference. I'm not using a lot of adjectives, I'm not saying that CU will be the best RvR game ever, etc. I'm simply laying out what we want to do with the game and leaving it up to the players if they like the concept. I'm telling them flat out that this will be a niche game, that we are aiming for a smaller sub count and that the game won't have PvE in it. I hope you see the differences betwen the two approaches, especially as I keep reminding people that the Kickstarter could absolutely face-plant and that this game isn't Dark Age of Camelot 2. If I was trying to hype the game the way I had to hype it for WAR (telling the truth as I knew it), I would have taken a different approach entirely.
As to not being able to back us, that's fine, no worries at all. I don't expect everyone who has the money to back us will as I expect that they will be people who do can't afford to back the project too, that's how things go. I do appreciate the feedback and support, even if it is simply on the forums. Again, my thanks.
So you get a free pass right? It's all on other people and not on you.

"to reshape some histories, to bring back the forgotten others, to reassess and alter the already hazily known, to redefine some standards of writing and our understanding, thoughts and feelings of an era lost. More importantly, to allow this man to breathe his words […] Memory, collectively lost, can now be somewhat regained."
These thoughts are taken from the last pages of the publication The Art Critic dedicated to the Burmese born, India based critic and artist Richard Bartholomew. The words come from Bartholomew´s son Pablo, and they eloquently comment on the power of his fathers archive, in particular his writing, to critically build different pasts. Bartholomew´s thoughts do more than address the urgent need to fortify the interlinking of art historical narratives - many forgotten or simply unknown - within the South Asia region, but they inspire us to consider their impact beyond it. And they do more, since they demand that we persevere in new ways of nurturing critique that will strengthen regional histories of immense richness to the world.
To do so we must nurture structures of empowerment, knowledge sharing and production, within which micro-histories will not just claim their place within macro-histories but also contribute to their revitalisation.
It is on the wings of this impulse that Diana Campbell Betancourt, Artistic Director of the Dhaka Art Summit, together with Katya García-Antón, Director and Curator of OCA, Office of Contemporary Art Norway, Chandrika Grover Ralleigh, Head of Liaison Office India of the Swiss Arts Council – Pro Helvetia, and Bhavna Kakar, Director of Take on Art Magazine are launching the CRITICAL WRITING ENSEMBLE as part of the Dhaka Art Summit 2016. The project is curated by Katya García-Antón, Director and Curator of OCA, with the collaboration of Antonio Cataldo, Senior Programmer of OCA. Research into the processes and structures that could help to empower writers today has been a part of the curatorial practice of Katya García-Antón in recent years. She was commissioned by Pro Helvetia – Swiss Arts Council in 2012-13 to devise a programme for the discussion and activation of critical art writing in Switzerland involving cross-generation peers across the linguistic regions and traditions of the country. CWE has drawn from this valuable experience, repositioning previous thoughts and positing new questions within the context of the Dhaka Art Summit, as well as the histories and currencies of the South Asia region. CWE takes a cross-regional approach and has been developed in collaboration with Bhavna Kakar, who in addition to convening with the peers in Dhaka, also developed CWE-1 in an official partnership with Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, by organising a series of discussions and workshops amongst regional peers during the month of December 2015 in the lead-up to CWE II at the Summit. Finally, in 2017, CWE will be developed as a further iteration within the context of Nordic Europe through a programme held in OCA, Oslo.
CWE therefore brings together peers from the South Asia region and across the globe, into different working constellations to share writing histories and knowledge with each other, experiment together, and produce new critical impulses regarding art writing, which will be compiled in a specially dedicated publication with wide international distribution.
Such an endeavour is positioned within a local therefore as much as a global framework, in more ways than one, for not only is this a project of some urgency regionally, it reminds us of the fact the crisis is a global one. Art writing has for some time endured challenges which vary in nature across the world. In some parts there are less places in which to write critically and experimentally about art and art history, there is less and less financing for this, there is less and less time; in others whilst platforms for writing may actually be on the rise, their value and impact has declined.
Writing is by nature a lonely endeavour, but under these conditions, art writing is being pushed to the margins and alienated from the central and critical position it should have in our societies, as will the immediate contact it should have with our audiences. If this decline continues, art histories around the world will homogenise and the immense richness and diversity of our cultures, essential to rewrite and reimagine present and past histories, will loose their critical edge as the very voices that should build it, which should experiment it and reinvent it, disappear over time.
CWE seeks to foster a community of art writing peers working together. Breaking the isolation that characterises much writing practice, the platform hopes to create a lively environment for intellectual exchange.
CWE seeks to connect art writers experience and knowledge of regional and national writing histories, across the South Asian region and other regions globally.
CWE II seeks to develop these relations through a four-day platform of presentations, panel discussions, lecture performances, group debates and readings, within the context of the Dhaka Art Summit, its exhibitions and talks programmes.

CWE views art writing as a practice in its own right. Writing in general is strongly shaped by the contexts in which it is practiced and where it appears, and so the platform will consider discussing writing in a variety of historical and formal contexts.
CWE will count on access to the Asia Art Archive that will be on site in Dhaka.
CWE will publish the material presented during, and derived from these sessions and distribute it internationally by Mousse Publishing. The publication will include a variety of contributions from all peers.

Welcome and Introduction
The Ensemble will be launched on Wednesday, 3rd of February with a welcome speech and introduction by Katya García-Antón and Chandrika Grover, together with Diana Campbell Betancourt and Bhavna Kakar.
Session I: Al Fresco – Writing within and against the Art School
The Al Fresco session focuses on the relationship between textual practice and paedagogical histories.
In the morning of Wednesday, 3rd February, CWE will embark on its first session with an experimental classroom – inspired section, by Anshuman Das Gupta. Das Gupta, faculty member of the Art History department in Kalabhavan, Santiniketan (Visva Bharati University) will discuss the singular approach of art pædagogy and its relation to text, at Santiniketan as envisioned through its founder Rabindranath Tagore. Fostered through a pædagogical programme devised by Tagore's right-hand man Nandalal Bose (1882–1966), Santiniketan represented the sum of ancient Indian theories of æsthetics, Tagore's humanist and universalist ideals transcending demarcations of national borders, and the debates on nationalist and Pan-Asianist ideologies initiated by many a luminary in the orbit of the ashram: Okakura Kakuzō (1862–1913), Sister Nivedita (1867–1911), and Ananda Coomaraswamy (1877–1947).
Chus Martínez, Head of the Institute of Art at the FHNW Academy of Art and Design in Basel, will discuss a series of recent texts in which she has reflected upon the relation between art practice, institutions and education in the years to come.
In the afternoon Jawaharlal Nehru University Professor Shukla Sawant, based in New Delhi, will present her recent work on art writing in Bombay in the early 20th century by looking at the JJ School of Art in Mumbai and artists/writers associated with it (some who were colonial functionaries but had a dual address in English and Marathi to cater to two different language publics).
Writer and Curator Filipa Ramos (currently editor of Art Agenda, London) will re-imagine traditional pædagogic formats, and standard exhibition review analysis, with a reading relating to an imaginary visit through an exhibition we haven't seen, but which we can experience through the eyes of an absent spectator.
Yin Ker, an educator and researcher on Southeast Asian and Buddhist art based in Singapore, will explore the legacy of Santiniketan pædagogy in the work of Burma's most important exponent of modernist practice, painter Bagyi Aung Soe. Following his return to Yangon in 1952 and over the next three decades, through illustration, which, in place of the virtually inexistent gallery and museum, served as the site of avant-garde artistic experimentations, he examined the linguistic rationale of a plethora of pictorial idioms, ranging from the ukiyo-e to cubism. In innovating new idioms, his non-figurative illustrations published in Shumawa Magazine in January and February 1953 provoked a furore which saw traditionalists branding his art as "seik-ta-za-pangyi," meaning psychotic or mad painting – an epithet that would become synonymous with Aung Soe's works as well as modern art in general in Burma. Ker's presentation will share the challenges of developing an adapted narrative of his art which defies the conventions of art and art history.
Q&A and closing notes for the first session will follow.
Location: Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy's Dance Auditorium

Session II: Staging Words and Flowing Letters
This session examines the various literary forms of art writing and the archival relevance of more informal accounts within art criticism.
The Staging Words and Flowing Letters session will commence with Belinder Dhanoa. Dhanoa is a writer and an artist, and currently teaches Creative Writing at the School of Culture and Creative Expression at the Ambedkar University, New Delhi. Dhanoa will read excerpts from the script she wrote for artist Vivan Sundaram´s exhibition-as-play 409 Ramkinkars that opened in Delhi in the spring of 2015. The performative exhibition paid homage to one of India´s most charismatic artist, Ramkinkar Baij, and his work as innovator of sculptural form in the space, re-visiting the creative milieu of sculptor-painterscenographer- theatre artist Baij.
Quinn Latimer is an American poet and writer based in Basel and Athens, and currently editor-in-chief of publications for documenta 14. Her work pays special attention to the literary format of the letter as a space of criticality and community occasioned by the intimacies of its address. In this session she will read from and discuss the work that comprises Anthology, a forthcoming collection of critical prose, poetry, and more hybrid texts that move between genre, and pull from history letters and ficition. She will specifically explore the form and function of the refrain, its serial ecstasies and political possibilities.
Delhi-based artist and writer Rosalyn D´Mello was a central part of the research that enabled the publication in 2012 of The Art Critic – a historic selection of the art writings of art critic, poet, writer, painter and photographer Richard Bartholomew (b. Tavoy, British Burma, 1926, d. Delhi, India, 1985). D´Mello will present a lecture performance addressing significant points in Bartholomew´s poetic and literary legacy, from the period of the 1950s up to the 1980s which offered an insider's account of the little known story of Modern Indian Art.
In the afternoon artist, cultural writer, activist and Dean of School of Visual Arts at the Beaconhouse National University at Lahore Salima Hashmi, will read and comment on letters of her father Faiz Ahmed Faiz to address the power of the epistolary form as a critical tool for resistance.
Curator, critic and CEO of the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, Toronto, Chantal Pontbriand will discuss the book Performance & Performativity, which she recently edited. This is the second of four anthologised volumes dedicated to the artistically unconventional and theoretically cutting-edge Parachute, a magazine that Pontbriand launched and founded in 1975. Performance & Performativity brings together seminal texts written throughout the first twenty-five years of the magazine which sought to develop new critical language that could deal with performance.
Writer Nida Ghouse has been conducting research on the Soviet funded multi-lingual Afro-Asian magazine Lotus, a forum for short-stories, poetry, review of books and literary essays. Lotus was a quarterly magazine which for its time was a ground-breaking literary/artistic cum political expression. The writers of the journal placed themselves in relationship to the broader social and political mechanism of imperial powers. Youssef el Sebai, was the journal's first editor, and the journal came out of the Afro-Asian Writer's Association, a group of African and Asian writers who spoke a multitude of languages and met in Tashkent in 1958. Ten years later this organisation would launch a journal called Afro-Asian Writings, which would go on to become Lotus. Lotus was published from Cairo and Beirut and was produced trilingually in Arabic, English and French.
Q&A and closing notes for the four sessions will follow.
Location: Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy's Dance Auditorium
Sunday, February 7th 2016
Session III: The Political Unconsciousness of Art Writing
This session addresses the various political concerns of art writing while looking at the art practices that have informed them.
In the morning of Sunday, 7th February, CWE will open its third session with NY based artist Mariam Ghani, who will activate the session with a performative, part text-based presentation of the audiovisual material of What We Left Unfinished – a long-term research, film, and dialogue project centered around five unfinished Afghan feature films shot, but never edited, between 1978 and 1992.
Turkish curator and writer Ovul O. Durmusoglu will focus on the flow of information that builds our disjointed everyday lives to address the reality of war and its virtual manifestations. Starting with the reading of contemporary cinematic and installative propositions she asks urgent questions about our future within and outside the arts.
Artist, writer, curator, and team member of the Forensic Architecture research project based at Goldsmiths, University of London, Nabil Ahmed will hold a lecture which combines video, performance and sound art to address the writing of the world as an accumulation of catastrophic events.
The afternoon will restart with art historian, curator, and critic Geeta Kapur, an expert on contemporary art and theory and noted for her many accomplishments in curating and art criticism who will lecture on the importance of texts and documentation in witnessing and testimonials of the paradigmatic of the historical, political and ethical dilemmas of our times. Starting from her manuscript Public Address: Citing Installation and Performance Art she will question the readability of texts in enhancing historical and political consciousness, and the fragility of such instances when annotating trauma, loss, and mourning.
Drawing from her curatorial research on abstraction, and from a number of texts by various intellectuals and artists, Maria Lind, Director of Tensta Konsthall, Stockholm, and Artistic Director of the 2016 Gwangju Biennale, will consider how in the past few decades economic abstraction was primarily dealt with by art as a subject matter or theme which increasingly mirrored the economic, social and political condition of the world. She will analyse how this system affects spatial and temporal concepts, and the writing of a future within it.
Artistic director of the international biennials of Venice and Istanbul Rosa Martínez, based in Barcelona, will follow up by discussing her recently curated exhibition Fear Nothing, She Says. When Art Reveals Mystic Truths, which revises the verse by Teresa of Jesus, transforming 'Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you' into the simpler 'fear nothing,' which it then relates to the novel Détruire, dit-elle (Destroy, She Said) by Marguerite Duras. The exhibition is an invitation to overcome obstacles and fears by opening up to the new developments of global ethical and æsthetic awareness and, in the work of historians and curators, to critically analysing the changes produced over the course of time by understanding how images condense fears, hopes and beliefs, and undermine the ideological codes of an epoch. In the words of Martínez, "Art is a kind of knowledge, a form of wisdom and an exercise of power. In art we must seek the presence and the meaning that transcend the visual."
Q&A and closing notes will follow
Location: Dhaka Art Summit VIP Lounge
Monday, February 8th 2016
Session IV: Entangling and Disentangling Printed Matter
This sessions discusses the diversity of writing histories developed through art publishing platforms and their contribution to the construction of criticality within the South Asia region and beyond.
On Monday, 8th February Aunohita Mojumdar, editor of Himal Magazine, Kathmandu, will commence the morning and CWE's very last session by speaking about the responsibility of the writer and the theatre of war by bringing to light stories of everyday reality in territories of conflict and violence.
Paris-based writer and philosopher Paul B. Preciado (curator of public programmes for documenta 14) will intervene in the programme ex-situ with a reading of Testo Junkie, a book addressing what he coined as 'pharmacopornographic' that affects the politics of the body and of sexuality. Testo Junkie was conceived with writing in itself as a performative device and using activism as a research methodology to move beyond academic writing.
Drawing from recent research and from her work as an editor of the independent international journal OnCurating, Dorothee Richter, Head of Postgraduate Programme in Curating at the Zurich University of the Arts, Zurich, Switzerland, will discuss hybrid curatorial models to address experiences of working across online and offline platforms.
In discussing art reviews from India's post-independence period, Paris-based art historian and curator Devika Singh (who is currently writing a book on artistic practices in India between 1947 and 1991) will highlight the importance in locating Indian art within a transnational history of modernism.
Sharmini Pereira will discuss her project Raking Leaves, a complex cosmogony of forms of commissioning, writing, publishing rooted in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Sharmini will discuss the critical writing options this project has catalysed in relation to the socio-political and art historical context of Sri Lanka.
During the afternoon, Mike Sperlinger, Professor of Theory and Writing at The Academy of Fine Art, KHiO (Oslo, Norway) will focus on the forgotten history of Tracks, a magazine edited by artists and consisting artist's writings, in the 1970s in New York. His presentation will consider the forms of criticality that place when the practitioner places him/herself at the heart of discursive creation.
Conceiving it as a site for raising and debating issues, Depart magazine's editor Mustafa Zaman will offer the raison d'être behind the art quarterly published from Dhaka, Bangladesh, whose principal aim is providing critical reinforcement to the burgeoning art scene of the country.
Q&A and closing notes will follow.

Sadomasochism by Peggy J. Kleinplatz
Book DescriptionA book that dispels the myths about those who prefer to go beyond "vanilla" sex Sadomasochism: Powerful Pleasures is a comprehensive exploration of the entire sexual subculture that lies on the cutting edge of society. The mental health professions and society have marginalized people who practice sadomasochism (SM).This interdisciplinary collection dispels myths surrounding SM, bringing together leading scholars from the fields of sexology, psychology, sociology, and medicine, alongside queer studies and sexual minority advocacy. Experts such as Thomas S. Weinberg, PhD, Susan Wright, MA, Margaret Nichols, PhD, Odd Reiersol, PhD, Svein Skeid, Rebecca F. Plante, PhD, Niklas Nordling, MPsych, and N. Kenneth Sandnabba, PhD, among other stellar authorities, reveal research findings, clinical data, and critical thinking about sexuality that lies beyond "vanilla." To gain a broader understanding of human sexuality, the study of SM is crucial for what it reveals about us as sexual beings. The text discusses the results of research into practitioners' behaviors and perspectives, the prevalence of SM behaviors in today's culture, and stresses the need for greater tolerance and understanding. The realization of SM desires and their acceptance are explored in detail. This unflinching look at the world and the people of SM will guide scholars and lay people alike into a more sensitive, sex-friendly viewpoint of the people society calls "kinky." Sadomasochism: Powerful Pleasures answers questions such as: * What is the nature of SM relationships? * What are the values and motives of SM participants? * How do mental health professionals regard and treat SM practitioners? * Should sadomasochism continue to be classified as a mental illness? * What is the legal status of SM and what are the consequences of discrimination against SM practitioners? * Does increasing visibility of SM imagery decrease stigma or create added problems? * What can ordinary lovers learn from those we have marginalized about the farther reaches of human erotic potential? Sadomasochism: Powerful Pleasures is valuable, insightful reading for mental health professionals, students, sex educators, sex counselors, sex therapists, sex researchers, sexual health workers, sociologists, sexual minority groups, and anyone interested in learning more about the sexual pleasures that lie beyond the traditional.

I ported one of my BR9732 props to ThreeJS. I was curious about their PBS Standard Material and it is very promising.
UPDATE – 08 NOVEMBER 2016 I got some time to optimize my native WebGL FBO engine and turn a few parameters into UI controls.
I finally found some time to port one of my full SWF 3D website made in 2011 into new web standards. The result is interesting because it run on mobile and it was not the case back in 2011. The website is not completed here, I'm too lazy to do it twice. I just need to build
Here are some screenshots of an underground work in progress: Ulysse 31 famous ship, the Odysseus.
Lots of metaballs can be heavy for a CPU process. I absolutely wanted to implement a compute shader approach of it … to see what are the possibilities in Unity to get a real-time fluid effect.
I'm still working on gravity, adjusting some velocities, masses, distances and timescale to get realistic behaviors. Here you can see how it's running in real-time in Unity. There is a little frame drop due to video recording but the output is still OK. My graphic card is a Nvidia GTX 590 with 1024 CUDA cores.
Have you ever tried to instantiate thousands of animated skinned meshes in a Unity Scene? Even with GPU Skinning enabled (quite obscure feature in Unity) and baked skinned meshes (thanks to MeshBaker but it does not support many skin animations), the Animation Class on every instance is consuming all your CPU resources.
I was already fascinated by the power of stars when I was a little boy. With Computer Graphics technology, I can now simulate at home what I always wanted to see and to play with.

Russell10/18/12 1:30pmFiled to: Search ResearchSearch TechniquesGoogle SchoolSearchGoogle2EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink Daniel Russell knows how to find the answers to questions you can't get to with a simple Google query. In his weekly Search Research column, Russell issues a search challenge, then follows up later in the week with his solution—using whatever search technology and methodology fits the bill. Advertisement Yesterday's questions were all about a large-scale educational movement that began in New York state during the late 1800s. The simplest search to figure out what I meant by that would be: [ education movement New York ] which leads you pretty quick to the Chatauqua institution. (On my page, Chatauqua was the 5th link in the SERP.)You could have also done: [ education movement New York 1800..1900 ] (the number range operator would give preference to pages that mention those years in the text of the page). Advertisement The Chatauqua was a cultural, religious, and political education movement that began in the 1870s on Lake Chataqua, New York as a move towards mass education and a commonly held sense that the people needed to have a socially acceptable way for family education.Some consider it the first form of mass culture in North America. With encampments springing up to hold Chatauqua-style meetings throughout the US, Theodore Roosevelt called it "the most American thing in America." Some scholars credit it with sowing the seeds of liberal thought in the U.S. and Canada.It was a social and cultural phenomenon that permeated rural North America until the mid-1920s. At its height, the Chautauqua Movement attracted millions to hear educators, preachers, explorers, travelers, scientists, prohibitionists, politicians and statesmen, comedians, singers, violinists, pianists, bands, and orchestras. But today, only a handful of Chautauqua communities survive. Sponsored While there's a good deal to say about the Chatauqua movement (which is fascinating itself), I want to focus on the Boulder branch. It began on July 4, 1898, when over 4,000 people gathered for the opening day of the Colorado Chautauqua which had been established when Boulder civic leaders and Texas educators joined together to create a cultural and educational summer retreat. (Basically, the Texas teachers wanted to escape the summer heat and have what we'd now call "professional development" time in a salubrious place. Boulder was just the ticket for them. The Boulder Chautauqua has been in business, holding sessions ever since.So let's answer our questions: Advertisement Advertisement 1. Even after more than 100 years, one of these education franchises is still active and well-known in Colorado. What city is it in? (For search fans, give us the lat/long.)Now that you know that it's the Chatauqua movement, [Chataqua Colorado] tells you it's Boulder, CO. A quick look at Google Maps finds the Chatauqua site at Lat/Long (from the Maps Lat/Long tool): 39°59′51.42″N 105°16′46.64″W2. Can you find a current photo of the grounds of this institution AND a photo from a 1899? (We're going to ask for a highly reputable source for the image from more than 100 years ago.) Advertisement See answer below...Getting a current photo is easy: use Street View or visit the Boulder Chautauqua web site.3. What's the most striking difference in the appearance of the land between now and 100 years ago? (For extra credit, can you show the current and 1899 views side-by-side?) Advertisement Advertisement For this kind of highly reputable information, one excellent resource to remember is the local public library! Many (MANY!) cities are proud of their local history and maintain superb archives. To find archival images of Boulder's Chautauqua, I first did a search for [ Boulder Colorado library history ], which led me immediately to Boulder's Carnegie Library which is their local history branch. This wonderfully historic library (one of the original Carnegie libraries in the United States) is full of a great collection of Boulder-iana, and has an extensive archival image collection-much of which is devoted to the local Chatauqua. (Pictured to the right)I just clicked through to their catalog and was able to quickly find a trove of images from the site. A search for [ Chautauqua ] on their photographs archive (using their search tool, not Google) yields 972 images. Advertisement Here's the best pair of current vs. 1899 photos I could find. (Near the auditorium, looking roughly northwest at the front of the building) vs. now. And then the closest place as seen by Street View: This shows clearly the biggest difference between then and now. In 1899, as you scan through the libraries archival photos, you'll see this was all a VERY open space, dominated by a prairie landscape-short grasses and no trees. None. Now, after more than 100 years of people living in this space, the land is covered in trees, making photo matching a bit of a challenge. Contrast these 1899 images with the aerial view of Boulder above. Advertisement Advertisement A remarkable change for the place. And a remarkable place.Search lesson: Don't forget the local resources! Libraries are wonderful repositories of information that can be easily accessed through their catalogs. Note that not all archives are available online-sometimes you just have to go there to see what they have. But most libraries have a description of their holdings, which IS searchable. If they seem to have what you need, it's time for a road trip.Luckily, Boulder has scanned much of its archive and added pretty decent metadata, which makes our life (those of us who don't live in Boulder) much easier. Advertisement Answer: Intellectuals and land-change in Colorado? | SearchReSearchDaniel M. Russell studies the way people search and research—an anthropologist of search, if you will.

City of Brookfield firefighters responded to a report of a building on fire in the 18200 block of Beverly Hills Drive just after 4:30 p.m. Nov. 13.
Firefighters arrived to find that the homeowner had used a dry chemical fire extinguisher to suppress a fire inside a clothes dryer prior to arrival, according to a report.
Lint had clogged the vent hose, and the homeowner was advised to have it checked by service personnel before using it again.
Damage is estimated at $1,000, according to the report.

Also, what is the deal with that Luc Ferrari record? I'm reading about it and it sounds interesting but I would like to know more from someone who is knowledgeable about him and his material.

Yeah, I'm interested in which Ronettes and Crystals singles you found.
I used to always scour the Amoeba dollar bin, and one time I found a copy of this Crystals singles collection:
It has a broken, locked groove in one song, but other than that plays perfectly. It's a treasure.
I've been waiting on this one for quite some time. The Drive soundtrack/score is finally getting released in the states on vinyl (maybe just reissued, but available again). Mondo is selling it in their online store on March 22. Tyler Stout designed the front cover and is also doing the gatefold art. Randomly inserted hot pink pressings.
I didn't love that sound track but that's a gorgeous cover.
I hope Five Leaves Left gets the same treatment as Pink Moon. I would snatch that up for sure.

Wisconsin School Bus Driver Logs 60 Years, Keeps Rolling
Larry Leverton took a job driving school buses in 1957 after a layoff. Known for his dedication, he doesn't plan to quit anytime soon.
At Bethlehem Central School District (BCSD) in Delmar, N.Y., Director of Transportation Alfred Karam is known as the "Numbers Man," according to Cindy Jurewicz, who is assistant director of transportation.
"We call Al the 'Numbers Man' because of his penchant for wanting to learn and to improve every aspect of our department … by embracing and utilizing KPIs [key performance indicators]," she explains.
This businesslike approach to pupil transportation, while also focusing on safe student transportation, has paid off: The transportation department has reportedly come in under budget for the past five years, and the team was able to reduce its overall transportation budget by about $900,000 for the 2012-13 school year.
Karam says he has tracked close to 20 KPIs since he became director of transportation in 2002 (he was previously the assistant director of transportation). The KPIs cover everything from out-of-service rates to the cost per bus, per student and per mile, to labor hours from year to year.
This internal benchmarking enables the team to see how the department is doing, and they can then take steps for any necessary improvements.
Jurewicz and Karam say that in terms of routing, they keep daily data on planned versus actual ridership, and in analyzing the data annually, they can determine if they can put more students on buses. They have been able to consolidate their routes from 111 to 86. This also led to a reduction in labor by about 137 hours.
In addition, the department has gone from having more than 19% of its buses out of service in 2000 to just 1% for the 2012-13 school year.
Karam has brought his knowledge on KPIs and other topics to his colleagues within New York as well as nationally as a member of the New York Association for Pupil Transportation (NYAPT) and the National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT). He has served on NAPT's subcommittee on KPIs.
Peter Mannella, executive director of NYAPT, says that Karam has led the charge on KPIs since he started in the industry, and that Karam was working on collecting data associated with KPIs before many other pupil transportation officials in the state.
"He's been an advocate for creating efficiencies without compromising safety, and I think that's a balance he's struck," Mannella says. "He's very detail oriented and disciplined about it."
In teaching classes on KPIs for NYAPT, Karam says he tries to make the information easy for attendees to understand.
"Most of our colleagues may be afraid to delve into that game [utilizing KPIs] because they think it's too complicated, so I try to make a connection between KPIs and what they do on a daily basis," he says.
For his contributions at the local, state and national levels, SCHOOL BUS FLEET named Karam its 2013 Administrator of the Year. He became the 40th pupil transportation leader to receive the award, which was presented to him at the NAPT awards banquet in Grand Rapids, Mich., in October.
Marine Corps to pupil transportation
Karam became involved in yellow bus transportation in 2000 when he joined BCSD after a 25-year career in the U.S. Marine Corps.
He says that his work in the Marine Corps prepared him well for his jobs at BCSD, and he has applied a lot of what he learned to the school district's transportation department. Utilizing KPIs and total quality management practices is one example.
"One of my goals as I neared my exit from the Marine Corps was to get into the same line of work: dealing with people and dealing with transportation since transportation logistics was my occupational specialty," he explains. "It's all the same: how you lead people, manage resources, and your approach to training. The only thing I had to do when I got into this business was become certified in accordance with the state for a school bus driver instructor."
Karam also learned a lot about leadership in the Marine Corps. He says he has held leadership positions since 1976, and he believes in sharing the knowledge and resources he has access to with the rest of his staff.
"For me, the higher you go, the more power you have to help those you are leading and managing," Karam says. "I'm here to support my supervisors, mechanics, office staff, bus attendants and bus drivers."
Jurewicz speaks to this and what it means for the rest of the staff.
"When Al talks about good leadership, he always expresses to everyone in the department that it starts from the bottom up," she explains. "In other words, he gives us the tools and his confidence, reassurance and guidance for us to grow."
"When I'm engaged in the maintenance side of things, I have full confidence that the routing and operations side is being looked after," he says.
He adds that what has helped him take on this maintenance workload is not only having experience in maintenance management — which he obtained during his time in the Marine Corps — but having an open line of communication and a good working relationship with his technicians.
Jurewicz says that Karam has long had a strong working relationship with his technicians because he was consistently out in the shop keeping abreast of their work and ensuring that things were running smoothly.
Karam's response upon learning that he was the 2013 recipient of the SBF Administrator of the Year award also says a lot about his attitude toward his team.
"When I told him he won the award," Jurewicz notes, "he said, 'No, it's not me, it's all of us.'"
Mannella says Karam's emphasis on teamwork is one of his defining characteristics, and this has earned him the respect of his colleagues within BCSD and beyond.
"He said in the NAPT awards presentation that it [winning the award] wasn't about him," Mannella says. "I've heard him say that in his facility — that it's a team effort, and he just happens to be the supervisor. His approach is, 'I'm not asking my employees to do anything that I'm not doing as well.' That's very 'old school,' but it's important. People have a lot of respect for him in New York, and there's affection for him because he's out there doing what his employees do and learning what they learn. I find him to be very inspiring as a leader."

It's no secret, cyclists can be an eccentric bunch. But the products we have to choose from are often beige designs for broad, mass-market appeal. That's the opposite for Bookman, --just take a look at its easy to use Light Set.
You have eight colors from Goblin Green to Sixpence Orange to complement your bicycle. The functional design is not only sleek, but compatible with any bar or seatpost available. An elastic band wraps around irregular shapes and holds the light securely.
Installation and removal is a breeze so you don't have to fumble around while locking your ride up, and you don't have to worry about someone's sticky fingers walking off with your light. They use a bright LED bulb and have three settings; slow flash, fast flash, and steady.
The Bookman Light Set comes with a front and rear light. And they're available in Lemon Yellow, Goblin Green, Heavenly Blue, Pitch Black, Ghost White, Raging Red, Oxbridge Red, Sixpence Orange.
