Schools in Slough
At Long Close School we take great pride in the success that our Year 6 children enjoy in their Common Entrance exams. In recent years our pupils have secured scholarships to prestigious independent schools such as The Abbey, Hampton, Wellington and Millfield, while others have gained places at Eton College and excellent local grammar schools such as Langley, Herschel and Burnham. However, an increasing number of our Year 6 pupils are choosing not to leave at all.
One of the advantages of being an all-through school is that we can provide a high-quality education to each pupil from the age of 2 through to 16. For a growing number of our parents – particularly those with children of different ages – the chance to enjoy the benefits of a truly family-friendly school is proving to be irresistible. Such is the demand for places at the Senior School that we have had to operate a waiting list system for September 2019 entry, with a new intake of pupils from external primary and junior schools also keen to benefit from the outstanding education that the school offers.
Most of our Year 11 leavers go on to study for A-levels at grammar, selective independent schools or high-performing sixth-form colleges. Recent destinations, for example, have included Langley Grammar, Herschel and Hampton. They do so armed not only with better GCSE results than they were expecting but with all the personal attributes required to help them succeed.
Whether in the run-up to Year 5 or Year 11, we offer a wealth of advice and experience to all of our pupils and parents as they consider the range of options open to them. Our priority, as ever, is to secure the best possible future for each child – along the pathway that most suits them.

London: Nancy Dell'Olio made a faux pas at the Bad Sex In Fiction Award event by deciding to go braless in public.
The ex-girlfriend of former England football manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, who recently admitted to having Botox to keep her looking young, could not hide one sign of ageing at the event, the Daily Mail reported.
The 50-year-old former 'Strictly Come Dancing' contestant made matters even worse by wearing a clingy green glittery jumper garment with a pair of skintight wet-look trousers and over-the-knee suede boots.
The property lawyer wore her dark hair in a high bun and didn't seem bothered at all about her assets dropping quite low.
She spent time hugging and laughing with former 'EastEnders' star, Barbara Windsor, and the pair even spent some time with Rachel Johnson.

Philadelphia Futures has released its 26th edition of Step Up to College: Philadelphia's Guide to the College Preparation, Application, Admissions & Financial Aid Processes – a 66-page resource book designed to lead high school students and their families through each stage of the college admissions and financial aid processes, from understanding college fit, to writing application essays, from navigating the FAFSA to transitioning to life on a college campus.
In October 2015, Philadelphia Futures began distributing 42,000 print copies of Step Up to College to every public, public charter and parochial high school in Philadelphia, the Free Library of Philadelphia, government offices and community-based organizations.

"There is much public discourse currently about the cost of college and equal access to higher education for first-generation-to-college students, however, there is often less focus on the "nuts and bolts" of the college admissions process," said Joan C. Mazzotti, Executive Director, Philadelphia Futures. "By publishing the Guide, Philadelphia Futures provides students with the tools and information they need to identify a school that is the right fit academically, socially and financially and prepare themselves to be a competitive applicant and a successful college student. We are proud to make the Step Up to College Guide and its accompanying digital resources available to Philadelphia's students.

A neighbor has said that she heard 5 gunshots on Wed. night about midnight. When she heard Shannon Hallabrin's boyfriend pounding on doors and calling for help she called police.
Police who responded found Shannon Cynthia Hallabrin, 34, collapsed and bleeding. They say they know who the shooter was, as Shannon Hallabrin told them just before she died. After talking with officers briefly she was taken to the hospital where she was later pronounced dead. They say there are no other suspects. She told officers that 34 year old John Edward Dudley AKA "Big John" was the person who shot her. By the time police arrived, Dudley was no longer at the scene.
Reportedly Shannon Hallabrin and her boyfriend were at the home when Dudley barged in and shot Hallabrin with a handgun. Hallabrin staggered into the front yard and collapsed. The current boyfriend was not harmed.
Some say they had never seen any problems between the former boyfriend and girlfriend. Some say the two would bicker, but they never thought anything like this would happen. Others report they knew of problems between the two. Some neighbors have stated that Hallabrin was being stalked by Dudley.
Shannon Hallabrin was reportedly an outgoing and generous woman and liked by her co workers. Co workers say they knew there were problems, but she did not go into a lot of detail about them at work.
Police found Dudley walking along a highway on Fri. and he was placed under arrest. Police say that Hallabrin was shot three times in the back, and the gun has not been recovered.

Veteran actor/director Clint Eastwood was the toast of the art world on Saturday night as his career achievements were acknowledged by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).
The Dirty Harry star, 81, was the focus of the inaugural LACMA Art + Film Gala and he was honored along with artist John Baldessari.
The event was co-chaired by Eva Chow and Leonardo DiCaprio, the star of Eastwood's latest film J. Edgar, about FBI director John Edgar Hoover.
Chow told reporters at the event, "Clint Eastwood is such an amazing filmmaker. I can't think of anyone who can cross over between the front and back of the camera at the level he's been doing it for most of his life. I think he represents the word 'cool,' and I can't believe we are fortunate enough to honor him at our first gala."
Stars including Kate Hudson, Zac Efron, Reese Witherspoon, Emily Blunt, Mickey Rourke and Uma Thurman were on hand to toast Eastwood on his big night.

A Day of Swaraj
I suppose each one of us has a favourite Independence Day recollection. Yet, funnily enough, my defining Independence Day moment did not happen on the fifteenth of August.
During the spring of 2011, I was involved in designing and rolling out a learning programme organised by the Kutch Nava Nirman Abhiyan, a federated collective of NGOs working in the western-most district of India, Kutch. Along its northern reaches lies a dazzling salt encrusted white desert, which extends all the way to the Pakistan border. To the south of the desert are the Banni grasslands, where nomadic tribal people; Maldharis, tend their herds of buffaloes and camels. The Abhiyan had set up 'setu' offices, literally meaning, bridges, which were used by the member NGOs to deliver their outreach programmes to far flung and remote communities in the district.
Over the years, several communities had mingled and co-existed in Kutch, resulting in an array of cultures, customs and traditions. What these communities share in common is a love for bright colour. The styles of their intricately embroidered clothing are beautiful beyond measure and are specific to each community.
What will you do if the government withdraws all these schemes and projects? We asked in desperation. We were met with disbelieving stares.
In an experiment supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, Abhiyan designed a different kind of learning and experience sharing programme for the elected panchayat representatives and Setu level staff. My partners in designing and delivering the programme included a stellar cast of dedicated experts drawn from diverse fields. Sushma Iyengar, the brain and inspiration, was a legend in the district, having worked there for thirty years on the issues of gender, poverty, conservation and disaster relief. Parimala Inamdar brought in a lifetime of experience as a thought leader and designer of pedagogies for training; she focused not only on the design of the learning strategies in the classroom, but also on experimenting with whether learners, some of whom were barely literate, could use techniques involving the internet, for communicating with each other, sharing information and collaboratively enhancing each other's knowledge. Zulfiquar Haider came in as an expert on leadership and advocacy. The programme, which was to run over six months, comprised of three week-long face-to-face sessions, named Prajatantra (democracy), Aayojan ka Adhikar (the right to plan) and Bhavishya (the future), with intervening periods in which learners were to undertake projects, using the insights gained in the classroom, back in their villages.
During 'Prajatantra', learners had been guided to discover their own innate democratic practices. I led sessions that spoke about India's constitution, how our democracy was designed and finally, how the Constitution was amended to mandate the constitution of Panchayats as the local tier of government. We had spoken about freedom and what it meant for each one of us.
However, in the first few sessions of the Aayojan ka Adhikar programme, when we asked participants to define their vision for their Panchayats, I sensed that something was amiss. Participants reeled out what they wanted to do, but confined themselves to describing how they would use the plans and programmes of the government that were available to them. They would build roads and water harvesting structures with the rural employment guarantee programme; distribute houses under the rural housing programme and suchlike. No, but that was not governance, we said. You have the freedom to govern your Panchayats, and that goes far beyond implementing schemes given to you by the government, we said. And what will you do if the government withdraws all these schemes and projects? We asked in desperation. We were met with disbelieving stares.
We needed a new approach.
I then remembered an article written by Professor Mohan Gopal, a distinguished legal academician, who was once the Director of the National Law School of India University, in Bangalore. In a search for what were the inspirations for the Rights guaranteed in the Constitution, Professor Gopal had attempted to dissect its operative language of the constitution. He argued that the constitution contained seventy five 'core value edicts', which in turn could be linked to the twelve 'core ideals' in the objectives resolution of the Constituent Assembly, when they set out on the task of crafting it.
But what had inspired the twelve core ideals?
As I warmed up to the theme, I had the attention of the classroom. They did not need too much of prompting, before discovering Professor Gopal's five core beliefs that inspired the freedom struggle. These were
Satya; truth
Ahimsa; non-violence
Swaraj; self-rule
Sarvodaya; compassion towards everyone
Antyodaya; compassion towards the most deprived.
Why not we re-think one's village plans, on the basis of these ideals, rather than the availability of money through various schemes?
The transformation was electric.
Over the next few hours, groups of learners huddled together, building their vision of what they wanted for their village. When they returned to present their results to each other, their plans were breathtakingly different.
Maybe, we need a second freedom struggle to demand that the way we look at governance ought to be overturned; that it has to start with the our immediate surroundings and then proceed upward.
They spoke about their Panchayats being corruption free. That's our commitment to Satya, they said. We will ensure that there are no instances of domestic violence in our village; in our quest for Ahimsa and Sarvodaya. We will plant trees and conserve soil - that would fit under Sarvodaya too. One friend said it was also Ahimsa; non-violence was not only to be practiced with respect to people and animals, but land as well. We will ensure that poverty is eliminated, that destitute people would be supported – we will achieve Antyodaya.
Nobody spoke of government programmes and schemes any longer. They only saw these as support systems with which they could achieve a larger ideal; that of a just, harmonious, all inclusive and happy existence.
And that's how we discovered that Swaraj can be ours, if only we discover that the power to claim it is within us.
Can you imagine what kind of revolution of development would happen, if each Panchayat and Municipality - and within it each ward and mohalla - discovers the Swaraj that lies within them and work for Satya, Ahimsa, Sarvodaya and Antyodaya?
For too long, we have waited for the government to deliver conveniences to us. We are prisoners of plans and budgets designed at the top. True, the Centre and the State governments are ours as well. We have the freedom to elect them, but thereafter, there is precious little freedom for us to question them on a day to day basis. We need to reclaim our spaces from these levels; not in ways that undermine them - that would be a contradiction of the freedom that we cherish - but in ways that decentralizes governance closer to us.
Panchayats and Municipalities are the level of government that is closest to us; its representatives are more likely to have eye contact with us on a daily basis. Let the centre and the State do what they are supposed to do and not interfere in the business of our local governments. Swaraj is not achieved if foreign rulers leave, it has to be practiced on a daily basis, at the local level.
Maybe, we need a second freedom struggle to demand that the way we look at governance ought to be overturned; that it has to start with the our immediate surroundings and then proceed upward.
We are the first mile and the Government of India the last, not the other way around.

Adam Benigni in news anchor chair tonight, but not long range
Channel 2 sports anchor Adam Benigni is scheduled to be back in the news anchor chair today for the second time this week.
However, he doesn't plan to join Channel 7 anchor Jeff Russo in making the switch from sports to news.
Benigni also was the news anchor Wednesday night opposite Maryalice Demler when Scott Levin had the night off.
"We wanted him to try it and he wanted to do it," said Channel 2 General Manager Jim Toellner.
He added that Benigni had been in the news anchor chair a few years ago as well.
Benigni said the original plan was to anchor tonight only, but he added 5 p.m. and 11 p.m. Wednesday when Levin took the night off. He was back doing sports at 6 p.m. covering the big sports story that day – the Buffalo Bills decision to keep quarterback Tyrod Taylor on a restructured contract.
"I just wanted to mix it up a little," said Benigni of anchoring the news. "It is fun to get out of your comfort zone. And trust me, it was out of my comfort zone. It feels a little different."
He noted one difference is that he writes his own sports copy, while a producer generally writes the news script.
"There also is more ad-libbing in sports," added Benigni.

Having spent almost 20 years at Channel 2 covering sports, Benigni said he doesn't envision news in his long-range plans.
"It is not something I thought about doing long range, but if I can help them out once in a while, that is fine," Benigni said.
Sports Name change: On Tuesday, Time Warner Cable Sports Channel will become Spectrum Sports.

For the first time, 1 million tickets of 'Baahubali 2: The Conclusion' were already sold out in 24 hours. It is the highest that any film has managed to collect in the advance booking sales. And guess what? The movie has already made Rs 36 crores in just 24 hours!
Shocking, right?
When trade expert Akshaye Rathi revealed the figures, the excitement in his voice was clear. He said:
"Within 24 hours, they sold about Rs 36 crores worth of tickets in advance. Universities are booking shows because they want to do management classes on Baahubali 2. I have never seen such craze. It is as if this is the first and the last movie people are going to watch."
The scenario is pretty much the same overseas as well.
A US distribution company Great India Films revealed:
"We have passed $3 million in pre-sales and are adding almost $100,000 to the total every hour. This is the highest for an Indian film in advance ticket sales."
In the US, the film is releasing in over 1100 screens. It has managed to beat 'Dangal's' record too. It had approximately clocked Rs 20 crores in pre-booking sales but 'Baahubali 2' has brought in Rs 36 crore in just 24 hours.
Obviously with tickets price raised so high the film is expected to make a good collection.

3 instruments by Santo Serafin
Santo Serafin moved from his home town to Venice in 1721, although he may have already trained as a violin maker in Udine with Francesco Goffriller. Serafin's earliest labels date from around 1725 but he did not set up his own shop until 1733, so he may well have worked in some of the other Venetian workshops during that period.
His work draws much from Amati, and both the circa 1735 and 1739 violins featured here show the Amati influence, particularly in the f-holes and the scroll, but are not without a recognisably Venetian flair. Serafin is regarded as the most elegant of the great Venetian makers and the accuracy of his work, combined with his use of beautiful wood, make his instruments some of the most physically attractive to emanate from Venice at this time.
The circa 1740 violin is a rare example of a Stradivari copy, this time modelled on the 'Long Pattern' of the 1690s. Serafin's cellos are also extremely well regarded, though not a match for those of his contemporaries, Montagnana and Matteo Goffriller.
Serafin retired from the violin makers' guild in 1744, and seems to have made only a few instruments after this date, although he lived for another decade and a half.

Social justice issues remain some of the most pressing problems in the United States. One aspect of social justice involves the differential treatment of demographic groups in the criminal justice system. While data consistently show that Blacks and Hispanics are often treated differently than Whites, one understudied aspect of these disparities is how police officers' assessments of suspects' size affects their decisions. Using over 3 million cases from the New York Police Department (NYPD) Stop, Question, and Frisk (SQF) Database, 2006–2013, this study is the first to explore suspects' race, perceived size, and police treatment. Results indicate that tall and heavy black and Hispanic men are at the greatest risk for frisk or search. Tall and heavy suspects are at increased risk for experiencing police force, with black and Hispanic men being more likely to experience force than white men across size categories.

WRI will join West Virginia University Research Corporation of Morgantown, W.Va. in the development of sophisticated monitoring networks for advanced fossil energy power systems. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced that the project, which includes Western Research Institute (WRI) as a partner, was among five selected for continued support by the Office of Fossil Energy's Advanced Research—Coal Utilization Science Program.
The harsh high-temperature, highly corrosive environments of advanced power plants require new approaches for monitoring equipment, materials degradation, and process conditions that affect the operation of components and systems.
Increasing global energy demands and strict emission regulations require high levels of performance, capacity, efficiency, and environmental control. Advanced monitoring networks will be essential to the performance and availability of the near-zero emissions coal power production systems of the future.
The 36-month project led by West Virginia University will develop corrosion monitoring sensors for ultra-supercritical coal power plant boiler tubes. Electrochemical models of the corrosion system will be constructed and tested, and a self-powered wireless sensor system using thermal-electric-powered telecommunication devices will be developed.
The sensor system will be tested at Western Research Institute's Combustion Test Facility in Laramie, Wyo. The Combustion Test Facility is a scaled-down version of a commercial pulverized coal-fired utility boiler.
"WRI is excited to be partnering with West Virginia University to advance sensor technologies that will make coal power plants more efficient and cost effective," stated Don Collins, Chief Executive Officer of Western Research Institute. "This is a great partnership that brings together two of America's leading coal producing states to enhance the benefits of coal," he said.
WRI Senior Vice President for Energy Production and Generation, Dr. Vijay Sethi, and Lead Engineer Dr. Khalid Omar will head the effort at WRI. Dr. Xingbo Liu of West Virginia University will direct the overall effort.
Other projects selected for the Coal Utilization Science Program will be led by Texas Tech University, Lubbock, Texas; General Electric Company, Niskayuna, N.Y.; Siemens Energy, Inc., Orlando, Fla.; and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, Va. The selected projects represent a total investment of $6.5 million, with nearly $5 million from DOE and the remaining $1.5 million in cost share provided by the recipients.

For the last thirty years, a degree has been viewed as being virtually the only pathway to a high-level level managerial career. In fact, many employers demand a 2.1 or above before they will even consider looking at a CV, essentially creating an internal triage system to sift through the thousands of applicants they will have.
The cost of a well-balanced education, at almost any university in the UK, is high with many students leaving with a degree but also a student debt of approximately £40,000 + living costs.
Aside from a degree what does your money buy?
- Deep knowledge in an academic field
- The ability to think critically, construct an argument and debate
- An opportunity to live away from home
- Time to grow up
- Opportunities to make new friends and diverse your network
- NOT having a job at the end
Is there any other way to get a degree minus the debt?
Until 2015, the answer was no, but the government has realised that not only is the cost of a degree a serious barrier for many young people. There is also a greater need for more practical qualifications to be taught by the organisations and the businesses who understand what training, skills, and insights they want their employees to have.
This alternative is a Degree Apprenticeship; a vocational and practical qualification that results in students receiving a high-class degree and three years of real life, real workplace training.
The cost is nothing, yes nothing and from what we hear from young Degree Apprentices all the other boxes are ticked too.
Degree Apprentices will acquire
- A deep and specific knowledge of the industry and sector in which they are working.
- A wide range of skills, many appropriate to sustain a long-term career.
- The opportunity to live away from home, if they chose too.
- Time to grow up as no employer has time to spend on coping with hangovers and tardy employees. Employers have high expectations.
- Opportunities to make friends, cultivate a network and find individuals who might become a mentor or help later on.
- Generally, a job and a degree at the end of the course.
To help reassure parents, we can report that DAs are as rigorous as a traditional degree. However, these are degrees with bonuses such as learning how to manage and communicate with clients, if relevant, to write code and be trained in reporting and management of all aspects of a job. Learning how to solve business problems and communication are essential transferable skills that can be utilised in any business later on making any student far more attractive as an employee.
For many DAs the application process is rigorous and apart from needing excellent A level results will involve time and energy on the students part.
Stage 1. an online application: a CV, a job application covering letter and some basic, personal Q & As
Stage 2. possibly a video or telephone interview
Stage 3. live assessment - held at an assessment centre it will be a busy day, with lots of other applicants
Stage 4. hopefully, a job offer
There are still only a fraction of the proposed number of DAs on the market.
Some companies will only offer 2 - 10 places each year and as they will have hundreds of applications and CVs to choose from please expect the process to be highly competitive.
All DAs are created by businesses in partnership with an academic institution who act as the degree provider. The course content has to conform to a National Standard which will have been written with the cooperation of at least ten other businesses working in the same field, ensuring that the degree has depth and is recognised and valued by others. All programs and their providers are accredited by a National body who oversee DAs specifically.
At the end of the course, many students are likely to remain with the organisation they have trained with and can advance in the job quickly thanks to having acquired the specific skills, both practical and theoretical, combined with an understanding of how real life works that the organisation requires. British Telecom report that the retention rate for Apprentices within their business is much higher than for those coming into the business via their graduate scheme: 93% versus 38%. Other large businesses are suggesting that the appeal and success of DAs will mean that they will start to invest less in graduate training programs in the future and put more funding into their Degree Apprenticeship (and Apprenticeship) schemes.
We should point out that DAs are NOT right for everyone. Applicants have to be motivated and prepared to put in the hours as they are usually expected to work a full week and study in their spare time. At present, the courses offered are mostly connected to technical jobs although there are a few management training programs on offer. We have also heard that Queen Mary's University is considering a social change DA and Manchester Metropolitan University are providing a DA in Fashion buying.
The Degree Apprentices that we have met are all delighted with their choices and suggest that they have advanced straight to GO! by being tuition debt free, having a degree, real skills and in the longer term a job. We suspect their parents are too!
Important note; Degree Apprenticeships are only available to students who are entitled to work in the UK. Therefore, overseas students who do not have an eligible work visa cannot apply.

Fox had its largest audience on the renamed "The Factor" Wednesday night since O'Reilly left for what became a permanent vacation, with the Dana Perino-hosted show seen by 3.34 million people, the Nielsen company said Thursday. But, these allegations have come over a span of several years and Fox News has always stood by O'Reilly.
"Within the first week and a half of working there. he made like a grunting noise", she told "The View". "That's not going to bode well", Beck said.
As defined by the state, a property owner's permanent residence is the address listed on his or her voter's registration card, driver's license or other official identification, as well as the place where the owner's cars are registered and income tax is filed.
Last summer, the Murdochs fired Roger Ailes, the architect and former chairman of Fox News, after women complained that they were subjected to a hostile workplace.More news: Philippines checks report of 'harassment' near China-controlled reef
"I wouldn't put up with anything that would be perceived as intimidating or harassing", she added, saying that she parted ways with Fox News when her contract with the network wasn't renewed in June 2015. CNN's Brian Stelter reported on Thursday morning that the network was preparing to give O'Reilly a hefty buyout from his contract that could stretch into the "tens of millions". The 2012 Republican vice presidential nominee said women don't deserve to be harassed - and the network needs to do better at protecting them.
Bill O'Reilly attends the Hollywood Reporter's 2016 35 Most Powerful People in Media event, April 6, 2016, in NY.
"I did not want to", she said.
"The pope. I would very much like to speak with him".More news: Turkish election board rejects main opposition's application to annul referendum
Viewers, particularly older men, reveled in O'Reilly's pugnacious, take-no-prisoners approach and his trademark "No-Spin Zone" version of current events. It is also a significant moment for other television personalities and the degree to which off-screen misbehaviour is tolerated. "He is an incredibly talented broadcaster, who raised the bar for interviewers everywhere".
Burgess said she felt "mortified" by the president's remarks.
"He doesn't think sexual harassment is wrong", Bloom said. The book, ironically, includes advice from O'Reilly on treating women with respect. O'Reilly brought Fox News a lot of money over these past two decades, and while he's no longer useful to them in a monetary sense since the sponsors said goodbye, they're not gonna let the guy leave empty handed. "But that is the unfortunate reality that many of us in the public eye must live with today".More news: Canadiens defenceman Emelin expected to return for Game 5 against Rangers

- Dr. Helen Caldicott: There seems to be no end in sight for this dreadful catastrophe. About 300 to 400 tons of radioactive water per day are pouring into the Pacific, have been for the last 3 years, and will continue probably for the rest of time because no one can find out where the molten cores of a hundred of seethingly hot uranium are. No one can get near them because they're so radioactive, and the water will continue to flow over them, I guess, forever more. I can't see any other way out of it. […] I had the same reaction as you when two days after the tsunami and earthquake occurred […] I got this feeling in the pit of my stomach […] there is simply nothing anyone can do about it. And people are asking me all the time what can I take, what nutrients can I take? There's nothing you can take to remove the radioactive elements from your body once you've eaten them.

They need to start getting off their bottoms and moving away from their computers, using their democracy, educating their representatives […] taking over the state house, the congress because you own them. In the vacuum that people leave by not using their democracy in an educated fashion that the corporations step into the vacuum.

A Whale of a Time! 30"x48" mix media on canvas
Happy Holidays my friends!
This month has been hectic with many gatherings and goodies to eat.
The reception at the Escondido Municipal Art Gallery for Summation was packed. I so enjoyed looking at all the artwork and also talking to those people who liked my artwork "Blender".
I have been working on abstracts again. After working on a canvas twice, and wiping the artwork because it just didn't feel right, I decided to experiment. I remember how much I loved to create lines in life drawing so I used line, and loved the results so much that I'm going to create a series of them! Above is the first one of the line series.
Enjoy the holiday season!

What's for Dinner? Oil on 8" x 24" canvas
Dear Friends,
I love December. There is something about the holidays, people in good cheer, the break in the routine, and all the yummy food.
I went to see the movie "The Book Thief" and just fell in love with it. A wonderful story, beautifully filmed, and wonderful characters. I must read the book now.
My newsletter was sent. You can sign up for it at my home page if you haven't already. I don't buy Christmas gifts really. I'm more into experiences, so my two young adult (son and daughter) will get a day with me at Disneyland for their gifts. I know it may be packed with people and cold, but the little kid in me is looking forward to it.
Above is what's on my easel right now, "What's for Dinner?", oil on canvas. Yeap, if you recognize the little papillon, it's our dog "Oliver". He seems to make it into my paintings more often lately.
Just a reminder that the annual sale is still going on until Dec. 21, 2013, if you are shopping for a special unique gift for yourself or others. Everything is marked 50% off!
Wishing you the best Holiday Season yet.

I'm Buying Art
Dear Friends,
The end of another year is here. I feel blessed to have had good health, loved ones around me, and being able to express myself through my art and photography.
I just came back from the Publication Party at the Escondido Municipal Art Gallery. I was honored to be part of the talented artists in the publication "Summation 2013." My painting "Lady in Red" inspired 5 creative poets and I feel grateful to see how my art touched them.
I sold two paintings this month, my abstract work is still on exhibit at 57 Degrees, and having my first art booth sale next weekend.
Perhaps what I loved about this month most was that I was able to contribute to the life of another artist. I feel that where we spend our money is where our heart is, and mine is in the arts, thus I have given my time to children, volunteering in the local school teaching art, and have donated my artwork for charitable causes, but what makes me feel most blessed is buying an original piece of artwork from an artist.
"Fall in Mums" is the painting I purchased from Darrel McPherson. My art collection is still rather small, but each piece I add, is as though I bring more joy into my home to stay for good. Perhaps you don't understand what I'm trying to explain but if you have purchased artwork you enjoy from an artist, you may have an idea of what is like to contribute to something you believe in.
Darrel McPherson and me with my new acquisition
Nov. 16, 2013 - 57 Degrees Exhibit

The Gig is Over
Dear friends,
I was surprised by how much people could dislike themselves, be frighten of a camera, and how even little children don't always smile. I learned to change my messages in hopes of making a difference in little kids by instead of asking them to say "cheese" to "I'm awesome", "I'm beautiful", "I'm handsome" and the like.
I only wish the job didn't required a set amount of time per person, so I could had better connect with each person who sat before me, to be photographed.
Now that this gig is almost over, I'll focus more on art. I have already began a series of small abstracts and I'm having so much fun creating them. See an example above.
November 30, 2013 I'll be at the Escondido Municipal Art Gallery at the publication party of Summation V. My painting "Lady in Red" is published in it and looking forward to the poet's reading their poems inspired by art. I hope to see some of you there.
Pink Icing Cupcake, 5"x7" oil on canvas
Hello my Friends,
On October 18 I'll be turning 50! Wow...such number seems to bring so many thoughts. I don't feel 50, more like 15 in a way, and after my 2012 health ordeal, looking to improve my way of living with more healthy habits.
I have done a series of small 8" x 10" abstracts during the last month. I'll be updating the website at the end of the month with the new work from summer until now. My photography gig has been interesting, but glad it's winding down so it will give me more time to update my art website, paint, and continue to learn more about creative gigs.
With Love,
Back to the Basics
Hello Friends,
September came by so fast, and so close to the end of the year.
I have been having fun working on my own paintings. Due to scheduling of my photography gig, I had to drop the oil painting 2 class, but no worries, I continue to paint the creative ideas I had wanted to do for a long time..
Above is a sample of "Blender", first in a series which I intend to do, called "Reflections".
I haven't participated in any art shows lately. It's my intention to work on new works of art and build a new portfolio for my fans. Perhaps next summer I can do my own show with all the new paintings that have not sold in the meantime.
I've been having a great summer, a bit too hot lately, but nevertheless, we have been having awesome skies with beautiful fluffy clouds, and the clouds that spread all across the sky like cotton balls, reflecting the sunlight. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets!
Enjoy September.

Here We Go Again...
Dear Friends,
Here we are in the middle of August and I just couldn't stay away from signing up for an oil painting 2 class at the local community college. Class starts next week :)
I had wanted to take a break because I wanted to create my own art, and then I realized what I really wanted to do was take a break from figure painting.
Time to paint other things, like butterflies...yes, I started painting butterflies, and look forward to painting still life paintings, and landscapes, and even more abstracts! The Butterfly Series will be posted on the website in September. At least the first three :)
I miss going to the art shows in Escondido on 2nd Saturday, but it's been a busy summer with the photography gig going until the end of November and now the new art class starting next week.
Have fun!
Love My New Place
Dear Friends,
It's been over a month at my new place and I must say, I'm surprised how much I like it here. I used to live in this area before I moved to Escondido, and find myself in awe to find myself so much happier here.
With my new transition, I applied for a temporary gig as a photographer and I was again nicely surprised to get the gig! A big thank you to those of you I asked for recommendations, as this is my first "Job" after many years, as I have always been self-employed with the exception of my first job after high school. I was really moved by the letters you wrote and the wonderful things you said about me. I will always be grateful for your kindness. Feel so lucky to have such wonderful friends :)
I did some photography back in my 20's and actually got a few awards and some photographs printed, but dropped it quickly when I discovered oil painting. I always enjoyed it and since I feel complete with my art classes for now, and not taking any more classes for a year, I was wondering about taking some photography classes at the local community college but then I thought, what better way to learn than working at a studio and getting paid for it.
I am learning so much already, and feel I can expand to different phases of photography in this company if I so desire, after my gig is up in late November...like Photoshop! Yeap, I only know basic stuff when it comes to editing images and it can be rather useful for my art.
I just finished two paintings. I will upload them next week to the website. I sent one to my mailing list with a special sale offer. If you haven't joined my mailing list, you can do so at my home page, at this website.
I am going to work on smaller artwork for the rest of the year. I will be creating a series of butterfly paintings...they seem to be popping up everywhere I go lately, so I take it as a sign that they need to be painted. Perhaps a symbol of my own transformation as I transition through so many changes this year. Very exciting!

My Old Studio
Dear Friends,
This month was really tough. I moved...yeap, long hours of packing, having 3 garage sales, donating things, and even storing some things, as I down sized. How I had accumulated so much stuff that I don't need is hard to understand. I intend to change this from now on.
It took a lot of physical work, time, and help from friends, but glad it's over. New changes I'm still adapting too, as well as our dog Oliver, seem to be for the better.
In keeping with the spirit of down sizing and not keeping anything in my new place that I don't absolutely need, I am participating in the Escondido Art Association Starving Artist Sale. All the small artwork from my art school studies for the last year will be on sale there, about 23 pieces, from July 29-August 3, 2013. Get this...are you ready...All original artwork will be priced at $50.00 or less!!!! If you appreciate art as I do and would like to start or add to your collection, you don't want to miss this event. I'll be at the Gallery most of the day August 3, 2012 from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Stop by and say hello.
I hope you are all having a wonderful summer.
With Love,
Come to the Escondido Art Association. The EAA is located on Grand Avenue, in Escondido. All artwork will be priced at $50.00 or less and you can find about 20 of Gladys' original oil painting studies for sale. Some are even framed! Gladys will be at the gallery August 3, 2013 from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm.
Yosemite by Gladys Jimenez
What a Ride!
Dear Friends,
I hope July finds you well. Looking back at June all I have to say is "What a Ride!".
I began the month by traveling to Yosemite. My favorite place on Earth. I was hoping to take many photographs so I could do several studies for my oil paintings of this magnificent place but I was just caught up in the beauty of it instead. Participating in several hikes, the most difficult for me being Vernal Falls, but the most rewarding as well. You just can't beat that constant rainbow and view from the top :)
My daughter also graduated from Stanford. Very proud of her and the things she has accomplished, but mainly of who she has become.
No time for art competitions this month. I did meet with two art directors this month, one in Laguan Beach and the other in San Clemente (I just fell in love with this town!). It was interesting to see what they are looking for in art but couldn't shake the feeling that art galleries are not for me. My collectors like unique different art, and I'm happy to provide them with my art in a more organic way, through my website, Facebook, and through them getting to know me, as I them.
Many changes ahead, for one, I'm not taking any art classes this fall. Time to build up my own body of artwork for my collectors and new fans. Stay tune, as much is happening :)

Time to Slow Down
Dear Friends,
The semester is over and I am happy to have a bit of more free time. I got an A in my figure painting class with Michael Steirnagle, an A from in my head drawing class with Ken Joudrey, and a B in life drawing from Michael Steirnagle. It brings me awareness of how much I still need to learn and practice on my drawing skills. I believe the last two weeks I was finally able to understand a little bit more which lines needed to be darker, the straight lines, and how the muscles work. Specially after the final for life drawing were we needed to do a front and back full figure depicting the muscles of the human body in a creative way. Happy to report I got an A on my drawings, you can see one of them above.
I'll be in Palo Alto as well. My daughter graduates from Stanford University and I'm so proud of her. Then I get to spend some time with her and my son...what a treat!
Enjoy your summer.
With love,
Gladys will be at the Escondido Municipal Art Gallery Artist Reception. Her artwork "Museum" will be on displayed until August.
July 4th, 2013 -Grape Day Park Booth

May 20, 2013 - Bravura Gala Reception
Gladys will be at the Bravura Gala Reception on May 20, 2013. She will be awarded the First Prize in Visual Arts for her artwork "Self-Portrait". The reception is from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. It will be held at Palomar College located at 1140 W. Mission Road, San Marcos, CA.
Hello Friends
Today I joined the Escondido Art Association Plein Air Painting group at Felicita Park, in Escondido. I have painted landscapes before but this was my first plein air outing.
All I can say is that I was not prepared for plein air painting. I had to do my painting really fast because the light and shadows do change fast. I had to hold the canvas on one hand, painting with the other while fighting off the bugs climbing on me and my art supplies, as well as the stuff that would fall on my painting and paint from the trees. It was not easy to reach my supplies and the sun was hot.
Next time I will take a TV tray table to put my art supplies on, a stool would be helpful to sit on (instead of a rock), and bug spray. Hopefully area won't be too far from facilities. I guess I'm a city gal, although I love nature and taking long hikes and even camping, when it comes to painting, I prefer my studio.
Although it took me about 30 minutes to do this artwork, I was going for the impressionist style, I like my little painting under the circumstances it was painted on. My first oil landscape in years :)
I was surprised to see fake trees a long the park. The fake trees are used to cover up cell phone towers at the park. It's my understanding they are all over the place now. It was a beautiful day outdoors and so happy I got to experience plein air painting, as it was something I wanted to do for a long time.
With Love,

Why Do I Bother to Create
Dear Friends,
A friend who is very analytical and not creative at all, once asked me what was the use of creating so much artwork, as I have been creating. I had to respond with my reasons for creating art.
I create because it feeds my soul...I am following my soul's desire and it's not something I can stop doing without feeling I'm starving my soul, and possibly depression of not being able to express myself (I have experienced a dark night of the soul after I took a period of two years of not creating)..., quite simply, it is my destiny.
An artist never paints for just money, that would be in insult to the creator that gave us this gift, and the artist that only creates for money even if their skills are perfect, the artwork lacks feeling and energy. I am not saying you should not commercialize your artwork, yes, we must sell our artwork as we artist also have bills to pay, food to buy and a mortgage to pay...but I am saying if it's just something you do for money, as any other career that you can do just for money, then you are missing out on living your call. When you do what you love, it doesn't feel like work at all.
To an artist, painting or creating is as essential as food if not more. We are willing to sacrifice everything for our art, including financial gains, relationships (as our art takes most of our time), anything that will get in the way of us creating. We are a strange breed, but I know of no other activity that makes me feel so grateful and thankful to be alive than when I am painting. I enter the BLISS zone when I paint and am just so lucky to be able to do so on a regular basis.
With Love,

Fundraising, Art Classes and Events
Dear Friends,
This month I participated in the Artful Inches event at the Escondido Municipal Art Gallery. It was part of a fundraiser where artist came together to create beautiful art, which would be sold by the art gallery by the inch. All funds went to help high school students to exhibit their artwork.
Much artwork to do, so back to my easel. Enjoy your day.
With Love,

Art, Art and More Art...
Dear Friends,
I'm so happy to announce that for the month of February, my work will be on exhibit at three galleries. There will be on piece, "Diana", at the Municipal Art Gallery. Three pieces at the Escondido Art Association, "Deer", "Mr. Rooster", and "Music and Dancing". Those will be on exhibit for one month. At 57 Degrees, down town San Diego, for two months I will have on exhibit "Red Barn", "The Southwest", "Lady in Red", and "Michael Hanlon". So very excited to be at this exhibit among other fellow artists.
Today I taught an art class to 5th graders. I volunteer at the local elementary school since 1998. I had so much fun teaching them about art, complementary colors, and Paul Klee. Kids have such a thirst for art and happy to be able to do my share my love for art with them. I wish more people donated art supplies so we could reach more children. Volunteers are available but without the supplies even with our most creative resources, it's tough to do. The non-profit organization I founded to raise funds for art supplies is Boldly Creating Life Foundation. If it's in your heart to promote the arts to children, please stop at the website http://www.bclf.org and make a donation. It will be greatly appreciated by me, the children, teachers, and families. Of course, your donation is tax deductible.
I hope to see you at one of the art reception events. Please do stop by and greet me, I would love to meet you, or see you again if you are a fan.
With love,

Art Galleries
Dear Friends,
First week of the new year I picked up my painting "Lady in Red" from the art gallery. I was thrilled to hear great feedback from the art gallery staff. This was the annual Summation 2012 event where poets write poems about the artwork they like. I hear my artwork made it into the publication again this year...sweet :)
I spent sometime visiting my friend, Darren McPhearson's art gallery. His work and the work of other artists are in display here. Some beautiful pieces here.
I asked every gallery I visit, if they are open to answering, about art sales. They all tell me that the economy changed and so did their sales. Not as many as there were in the past. Makes me wonder if art galleries in other large cities are having the same experience. Don't know...have you seen any red dots on the art galleries you have visited recently? Usually art galleries put a red dot by artwork that has sold.
Good thing we artist make art because of our passion and love for it, it's like eating, something we need to do regardless of how much the food cost. On the other side, it would be great to sell more art :)
I completed two new pieces, Red Barn and Christmas Tree. Looking forward to exhibiting them in a gallery because in the end, art galleries help you share your love of art with the world around you.
May this new year bring you health, contentment, peace and love.
With Love,
