Find out how Rusty Arena applies his passion for art to a long-running career of creating unique, screen-printed home décor.
"We had hired a series of employees over the years, but it was exhausting to train new staff. My absence had a negative effect on the morale and quality—one needed to possess the passion to create and take pride in what was produced. Only one employee had all the required skills and temperament to stay working with me for the last 14 years. His name is Ruben Mason. Without his commitment, it would have been almost impossible to survive so many twists and turns in the road. He is currently the head of production. Tina Sloan is my assistant, which is not an easy task. Her job is to keep us on schedule, maintain showroom sampling, invoicing, and shipping. My other key worker is Jose Sanchez, a good printer and builder and overseer of the studio and adjoining property. It's hard to put together a good team. I have one now and consider them to be extended family."
Arena Design made a conscious decision to strive to create the finest unique hand-made products on the market (Figure 3), surmising correctly this would get his products noticed in the major design magazines. Rusty was inspired by Mariano Fortuny, a Spaniard living in Venice, who died in 1949. He manufactured some of the most beautiful fabrics in the world and was called the magician of Venice for transforming Egyptian cotton into opulent recreations of 17th-century handwoven silks. Other historical textile designs were lovingly rescued and preserved, thereby creating a legacy to which other designers can refer. The conservation of these antique patterns provides us with the basis of most traditional motifs we see today.
Fortuny's fabrics are still produced in Venice, many years after his death, on machines he invented in the early 1900s. Many in the interior-design world consider Arena to be a latter day Fortuny. His commitment to excellence and innovation in the mixing of printing and handwork continue to produce articles, reviews, and spreads in all of the major interior-design magazines. This has led to increased sales and ongoing representation that has allowed him to grow and stabilize the business. Arena's company purchased its own building three years ago—a major accomplishment—to better handle future challenges.
"As for the future of Arena Design, I think it will endure. I hope my dedication to preserving and developing new printing techniques will not be replaced by a computer-generated image," Arena says. "I hope there will always be the real thing out there so people can choose. I'll continue to edit through new technology, select that which is useful, and incorporate into a workable relationship with passion to continue growth. It is a joy to create; it is what I do, and those moments under my mother's sewing machine playing with bits of fabric have become my life."

|The Original Siamese Twins
[I'm having trouble with Blogspot blog site trying to get my pictures to insert correctly - sorry]
Up for the Continental Breakfast that was part of the room rate. Remembered to bring my cell phone that was charging in the wall receptacle. On to the Visitor's Center for the video of the Mt Airy town's offerings and a museum of the "largest collection of Mayberry RFD Andy Griffith- items in the world". Let's not forget that Mount Airy is the birthplace of singer Donna Fargo and home of the famous Eng and Chang Bunker. The twins were born in Siam (Thailand) in 1811 and were joined at the abdomen. That is where we get the term "Siamese Twins" from. They went on tour with the circus when 12yr old, married sisters, had 22 children all together (they didn't give details on that) and are buried in the cemetery in Mt Airy, near where they farmed until dying in 1887. In addition, Confederate General J.E.B. Stuart was born at Ararat VA, six miles from Mt Airy.

Fifteen minutes later I was at the Blue Ridge Parkway and had to stop immediately and take a photo. It is a very beautiful and peaceful two-lane road; words cannot describe the pleasure in driving this crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Built during the 1930s to give jobs to people during the Depression during Franklin Roosevelt's presidency, it is a masterpiece – a ribbon of Americana at 2500 ft above the land. I was in the Virginia part of the road.
I stopped at each overlook and place of interest, including Mabay Mill, a very picturesque mill with water wheel for grinding corn and sawing lumber. It is so picturesque they have post cards that have been printed by scoundrels using a photo of this mill advertising the State of Iowa and Maine!
|MaBay Mill, VA
The Dogwood trees were beginning to bloom their white flowers accenting the many large hardwood and pine tree green. Azaleas added color. The weather was perfect. I could go on and on, but will just say that if you ever get a chance to travel this Parkway, do it – especially if the weather is good. With a speed limit of 45mph you can't help but relax. and marvel at rural America and the beauty of the land.
|Tent Catepillar nest in tree
I found a tent catepillar in the trees, so had to take photos of it.
I decided to get off the Parkway at Roanoke, VA. This was a mistake. I had avoided Roanoke before, and should have again. I never found the Visitor's Center so drove through traffic back East to the Parkway and checked out a new ""Explore Park" at milepost 115. It was closed, but thought I'd return in the morning.
Unfortuntely when I got off the Parkway on the north side of Roanoke to find a motel, I ended up on a Highway that just kept going and going – and no motels. Twenty miles later I found myself in Bedford, VA. Took the first motel I found, Days Inn – for $40 – complete with microwave, refrigerator, free local calls, and continental breakfast. Ate spaghetti at the adjoining restaurant so I didn't need to drive anymore, and then got on the internet for awhile before I tuned in "Boot Camp" for the next to last episode on TV.
At 1:28am a beep woke me up. I couldn't figure out where it came from. I finally narrowed it down to my Cell Phone, so searched for it's charger and got that going. Besides recharging my own battery, motel stops are now for recharging laptop, camera, cell phone, and soon, my GPS.

How to Use the Images
Historic Preservation Collection)
Many of the structures in this area have changed uses since the early part of the century.
Questions for Photos 2-4
1. For what purpose do you think each of the buildings in Photos 2-4 was originally built? How can you tell?
2. Determine where each of the buildings might have been located in Drawing 1. Which buildings would be closer to Terminal Station? Which would be closer to the railroad tracks?
3. Considering the rehabilitation of the area around Terminal Station, how might these buildings be used today?
* The photos on this screen have a resolution of 72 dots per inch (dpi), and therefore will print poorly. You can obtain a high quality version of Photo 2, Photo 3, and Photo 4, but be aware that each file will take as much as 33 seconds to load with a 28.8K modem.

Good morning, TexMessagers! Do you think racial and ethnic caucuses should admit members from other backgrounds?
Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke found himself in the spotlight this week after the Texas Tribune reported that O'Rourke, an Anglo who represents a district that is nearly 80 percent Hispanic, is ineligible to join the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
That much is true. But the story stirred up a bit of nasty racial politics in the social media world, with some people accusing O'Rourke of being a Latino wannabe and others accusing the Hispanic Caucus of discriminating against non-Latinos.
O'Rourke's spokeswoman told Texas on the Potomac on Thursday that O'Rourke has never expressed interest in joining the caucus, which the El Paso Democrat understands only admits members of Hispanic heritage.
"We have no anticipation of changing the bylaws," O'Rourke spokeswoman Mattie Muñoz said. "We respect the bylaws and respect the work that CHC is doing, especially as we try to pass comprehensive immigration reform. We look forward to continue working with them on these important issues. "
Muñoz said she's received multiple calls from media outlets asking about O'Rourke's interest in joining the Latino caucus. The story was published just weeks after Brownsville Democrat Rep. Filemon Vela resigned from the group to protest Senate immigration legislation that militarized the U.S.-Mexico border, something O'Rourke has also opposed.
The caucus includes fellow Texas Reps. Joaquín Castro and Pete Gallego, who represent districts that are about 66 percent and 55 percent Hispanic, respectively. O'Rourke's predecessor, eight-term Rep. Silvestre Reyes, previously chaired the caucus. Its current chair is Mercedes Democrat Rubén Hinojosa.
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Houston and GOP Rep. Bill Flores of Bryan are members of the Republican-controlled Latino caucus, Congressional Hispanic Conference.
Julián Aguilar, author of the Tribune story, and Kristian Ramos, spokesman for the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, declined to comment for this post.
The caucus — an influential bloc of 26 Democratic Latinos — has been deep in the battle to overhaul the nation's immigration policies. Group members met with President Barack Obama earlier this month to talk border policies, voting rights and health care.
Neither congressional caucus for Latinos has a formal application process, but members would need to vote to allow non-Hispanic members to join.
Race-exclusive and ethnic-exclusive membership in congressional caucuses came under fire about six years ago, when Tennessee Democrat Stephen Cohen pledged to become the first white person allowed into the Congressional Black Caucus.
But Cohen, under pressure from both his majority African American district and the caucus' leaders, who refused to break the "unwritten rules," changed his mind.
"I think they're real happy I'm not going to join," Cohen told Politico in 2007. "It's their caucus and they do things their way. You don't force your way in. You need to be invited."
In contrast to the CHC and CBC, the Congressional Asian Pacific Caucus allows members of any background to join. Among its executive board members is Rep. Al Green of Houston, an African American whose district has the largest percentage of Asian American voters in Texas.
Other executive board members include Hawaii Sen. Brian Schatz, who is an Anglo, and California Rep. Xavier Becerra, who is Mexican-American. There also are 23 associate members who are not Asian-American or of Pacific Island origin. Fourteen are from California. None are from Texas.
*An earlier version of this post stated that Rep. Joaquín Castro's district was 23 percent Hispanic. It is in fact 66 percent Hispanic. We regret this error.

US Chamber Of Commerce Wants More Censorship, More IP Protectionism
from the it's-all-about-the-protectionism deptThe US Chamber of Commerce is becoming an increasingly sad and deluded shell of an organization. Its main focus these days seems to be about creating protectionist, anti-free market, anti-innovation policies that protect its largest companies from competition and newer, more efficient tools and companies. It's predictable, but sad. The latest is that it has sent a letter to President Obama with its "intellectual property agenda," which could be simplified as "more of it, please."
It asks the President to expand the role of the White House's IP Czar, whose existence mainly exists due to the Chamber of Commerce using totally debunked stats to claim that the job was necessary. And, of course, it was no surprise the other day when the IP Czar's first report was more or less a bullet point list of everything the Chamber of Commerce wants. It's as if they have their own office in the White House, so of course they want that expanded.
The report does not mention ACTA, but does mention the new, even more secretive and more ridiculous Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP), which of course the Chamber of Commerce wants to include only "the highest IP standards." Along those lines, the Chamber of Commerce also wants the Feds to send more of its copyright cops around the world to enforce US copyright laws, and to put more enforcement pressure around the infamous joke known as the USTR's "Special 301" report (which is basically a way for the lobbyists to "launder" a list of countries they don't like, and have the USTR list them as violating US IP laws based on little more than what lobbyists claim).
Finally, of course, the Chamber of Commerce supports blatant censorship and a lack of due process, in praising efforts to censor websites without any adversarial hearing, just because there might be some infringement somewhere else, but that site links to it.
Notice a pattern? Basically, the Chamber of Commerce supports policies that act as protectionism for a few large US companies, no matter what the overall harm is to the rest of the economy. Protectionist policies harm the economy and the pace of innovation. Censorship and a lack of due process should be seen as an anathema to core values of the United States. It's a shame that an organization that often presents itself as being about supporting American values and capitalism goes in such an opposite direction to protect its own special interests.
