Archive for December 2013
Some changes are coming to this blog. I am going to be temporarily taking over the night police beat here at The Spokesman-Review, so I'll be stepping away from the blog and my coverage of the City of Spokane Valley. Editor Dave Wasson will be covering the city in my absence, so expect to see him post occasionally here. I'll still be tweeting at www.twitter.com/ninaculver, but the content will be breaking news related. I may pop up in the Valley from time to time, so you'll just have to keep an eye on the blog to see what is happening. The plan is for the switch to last until April, so everyone keep out of trouble while I'm gone.
Spokane Valley City Council members Chuck Hafner, Bill Bates and Rod Higgins will be sworn in during a brief ceremony at 4:30 p.m. Monday at City Hall, 11707 E. Sprague Ave. There will not be a council meeting on Monday, just a short ceremony. The public is welcome to attend. The council's next meeting will be at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 7. At the beginning of that meeting the council will vote to appoint a new mayor and deputy mayor.

Welcome to Monday, which this week is also known as Christmas Eve Eve. Not that we're counting the days until Christmas or anything. There are, of course, some highlights from Saturday's Valley Voice. A housing development is being discussed for the former Painted Hills Golf Course. The new owner may lease out the short par-3 course and the driving range, but it looks like various types of housing is the plan for the rest of the site.
Gary Schimmels is leaving the Spokane Valley City Council after serving ever since the city incorporated 10 years ago. He lost his re-election bid in November and now will be focusing on restoring his vintage cars and volunteering at local social service agencies.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on a group of Central Valley School District bus drivers who teamed up to collect enough money to send one of their coworkers on an all-expenses-paid trip to Hawaii. Bus driver Teri Perry has been receiving treatment for ovarian cancer and her coworkers wanted to give her a special gift. They surprised Perry with the gift last week.

Happy Thursday, everyone. It's almost Christmas, which means we have a couple Christmas-themed stories for you in today's Valley Voice. Correspondent Cindy Hval interviewed Santa, AKA Jim Burney, who has been donning his red, fur-trimmed suit for 39 years. These days he can be found at River Park Square in downtown Spokane. I hear he's even a Seahawks fan. He even dishes about his favorite reindeer in a quick Q&A.
Correspondent Jill Barville was at the Spokane International Airport for a Fantasy Flight to the North Pole for local children. The 63 children on the flight were nominated by local social service agencies. Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on autistic Barker High School student Jonathan Finck, who has his colorful art on display in the school's hallway. His fellow students enjoy watching him work.
The city of Spokane Valley is looking at an annual funding shortfall of $3 million for street preservation projects. The city has been spending about $4 million a year but should be spending $7 million, a recent study of street conditions showed.

I have to start my apologizing for my general inactivity on the blog and Twitter lately. Last week I was waylaid by a lovely flu virus and didn't leave my house for four days. I'm not quite back up to full speed yet, but I'm here. With that said, here are some highlights from today's Valley Voice.
Reporter Mike Prager has a story on Al Palm, who used to run the City Perk coffee shop in the STA Plaza. He is battling a rare diseases that paralyzed him almost overnight and his friends are organizing a benefit auction to raise money for medical equipment and renovations to his house to make it wheelchair accessible.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger has some details on the water damage from a frozen pipe that shut down Adams Elementary for two days. She also attended this week's East Valley School Board meeting, where board chair Mike Novakovich had to step in and ask people to be civil to each other. At least one speaker called for the board not to renew the contract of superintendent John Glenewinkel.
The Spokane Valley City Council voted this week to award lodging tax revenue to local agencies that promote tourism. The process has been controversial in recent years, but this year everything went fairly smoothly. The council also approved a new towing ordinance that requires tow truck operators to check if an abandoned car has been reported stolen before towing it.

Happy frigid Thursday, everyone. As we all contemplate the further dip in temperatures coming our way this weekend, let's take a look at some highlights from today's Valley Voice. The Liberty Lake Library is making plans to build a reading garden just outside the front door starting in the spring. It will offer shade trees, ornamental plants and plenty of places to sit. People can enjoy a book outdoors or participate in an outdoor program.
The City of Spokane Valley is considering creating a historic preservation program that will allow property owners to take advantage of grants and tax credits available when historic buildings are renovated or updated. If you live north of Spokane Valley inside the Spokane County Fire District 9 boundaries, check out the schedule for Santa's visit to your neighborhood.
Correspondent Cindy Hval has a story on the Seasoned Players, who perform radio plays on KYRS FM 88.1 and 92.3. The program airs from 10 to 11 a.m. on the second and fourth Saturday of each month. Today's show is titled "Bingo Ladies Gone Bad."
Turns out Spokane and Spokane Valley aren't the only cities dealing with barely clad bikini baristas.
They've become such a fixture that Seattle-based punk band Quickie has turned its anthem to bikini baristas into a music video, complete with plenty of examples of the kind of skimpy, barely-there attire that the Spokane Valley City Council has deemed too revealing to be considered appropriate clothing. The City of Spokane rejected a similar proposal, though Spokane County commissioners are still considering a crackdown of their own.
Although the music video was shot on location at Seattle's Cowgirls Espresso, the band gives a shout out to the spread of bikini barista stands throughout the Northwest.

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a nice, restful holiday weekend. We're back at it again to day, so let's go over some highlights from Saturday's Valley Voice. The city of Spokane Valley approved new rules regulating the attire of baristas. The rules are aimed at a coffee shop near City Hall that advertised topless Tuesdays and Thursdays, when baristas wore no more than G-strings and pasties. The crowd attending last week's council meeting was largely pleased by the decision, though a couple of people did testify against the new rules.
Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story following up on the wheat harvest from the East Valley Farm and Community Garden earlier this year. The farm, which supplies fresh produce to East Valley School District kitchens, had a good year for wheat. The district recently took delivery of 400 pounds of low-gluten flour. Also in East Valley, three new school board members were sworn in during the most recent school board meeting. A crowd turned out for the event. New board member Mike Novakovich was elected board president.
Lisa also has a story on Central Valley High School teacher Carolyn Schafer, who headed up an effort to ship 140 quilts to send t0 a co-worker's Army unit stationed in Afghanistan. Members of the community rallied to make enough quilts, which were shipped last week.

|United Methodist Agencies Join in Appeal for US to Lift Ban on Cuba Travel
New York, NY, March 31, 2009--A group of Protestant denominations and agencies have asked the Congress of the United States to lift the travel ban that severely limits their interactions with churches in Cuba. Signers include the General Boards of Church and Society and Global Ministries of The United Methodist Church.
A common letter to all members of the Senate and House of Representatives asserts that the travel ban--in effect since the days of the Cuban revolution more than 50 years ago--has failed. "It has failed in its stated objective to bring about change in the Cuban political system," the text states, and continues:
As churches and religious institutions with a long history of missionary and humanitarian activity in the nation of Cuba, we have keenly experienced the impact of the travel ban. US churches, mission agencies, and ecumenical organizations at the national and regional levels have suffered from the restrictions, which have reduced their ability to send religious delegations to Cuba and limited opportunities to accompany and support Cuban church partners.
Congregations have considerably greater opportunities to send delegates to Cuba under US policy than do denominational or regional church organizations.
The letter notes that Cuban churches are growing and present new opportunities for US denominations and ecumenical organizations to "support their Christian brothers and sisters in Christ."
Congress recently passed legislation that permits US citizens with relatives in Cuba to visit more often and for longer periods of time than in the past. The relaxation of the restrictions on relative visits did not affect the general travel ban.
The Bush Administration tightly controlled the travel possibilities for many Protestant denominations and their agencies. Licenses for limited travel were not renewed several years ago, including that of the General Board of Global Ministries. The ability of church groups to transfer funds to Cuba for relief and other humanitarian purposes was also restricted. In late 2008, Global Ministries applied for and received a license that permits the United Methodist Committee on Relief to send hurricane disaster relief into Cuba for one year.
The lifting of the travel ban is covered by bills number H.R. 874 in the House and S. 428 in the Senate. The churches' letter asked members of both houses to become sponsors and support the measure.
Earlier, the chief executives of many of the groups endorsing the congressional letter sent an appeal to then President-elect Barack Obama, asking for reform of the US policies on Cuba.
In addition to the two United Methodist agencies, signers of the letter to Congress include the African Methodist Episcopal Church, American Baptist Churches of the USA, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Christian Reformed Church in North America, the Episcopal Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and Progressive National Baptist Convention.
Also, agencies of the Presbyterian Church USA, the Church of the Brethren, and the United Church of Christ, and the Alliance of Baptists, Church World Service, the Mennonite Central Committee, and the National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA.

Anyone who ever watched a Bond film will be familiar with his work.
He penned the score for 11 of the movies including Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice.
Fellow Bond composer David Arnold told the BBC: "I think James Bond would have been far less cool without John Barry holding his hand."
His work earned him a BAFTA fellowship and an OBE for his services to music.
The Academy Award wins were for Born Free, Midnight Cowboy, The Lion in Winter, Dances with Wolves and Out of Africa.

Mason Prep School (MPS) offers an exceptional learning environment for boys and girls. The headmaster (Mr. Kreutner) is outstanding and the education is second to none. The school does an excellent job of promoting self confidence and teamwork within and across the grades. The environment sets a solid foundation in education and good citizenship so the students can continue to excel beyond MPS. We are confident that we made the best choice when choosing schools.
Mason Prep is one of a kind. We have an amazing principal and incredible teachers all of whom are committed to the individual success of the children. Rigorous academics in a nurturing environment equals WIN WIN for my daughters. We couldn't be happier with our choice of MPS.
I absolutely recommend Mason Prep both as an alumna and a parent of a first and third grader. Miss. Mason founded the school based on important fundamentals, such as: a democratic structure in which students elect a 'city council', an overall excellent standard of education, the importance of volunteerism, the power in working together and a well rounded curriculum . Students from day one are greeted by name. Teachers reward good deeds, behavior and skills via 'The Nice Knight', 'King of the Day' and special recognition during assembly. Older students are paired with younger students as 'pen pals'. Miss. Mason knew the importance and power of good manners and a hand-written note. Most of the staff have advanced degrees and have been with the school for many years. They go above and beyond to encourage and motivate each student. 7th and 8th graders learn how to volunteer. Parents are highly encouraged to participate and the PTO runs like a small business. If you like the feel of a small, nurturing, welcoming school that will fully prepare your child academically, emotionally and socially...Mason Prep delivers value and results.
As a parent of a Mason Prep graduate, I can't say enough about this school. The teachers are excellent, committed and dedicated. Many have been there for more than 10 years: this speaks volumes. It is a rigorous academic setting with attention to the most important fundamentals of education, good citizenship and leadership. Each grade-level teacher works diligently to prepare each child for the next grade to follow. As a result, the students are incredibly well prepared as they move upward and into high school and life outside of Mason Prep's walls. The new leadership is strong, forward thinking, approachable and on top of current trends in education, learning and policy. The education your child receives at Mason Prep is the best in town and most definitely the greatest value in a friendly competitive independent school environment. But perhaps one of the most endearing and important qualities Mason Prep offers is a strong and sincere feeling of "family." My child's friends from elementary school and their families remain our closest friends, many years after matriculating. We feel so fortunate that we chose Mason Prep and would do it all over again if we had the chance.
We are the parents of a 7th and 3rd grader at Mason Prep. We have not had a single negative experience with the school in our seven years. From an academic standpoint, the teachers do an excellent job of not only teaching the required materials but also keeping an eye on each individual child to make sure they fully comprehend the material. If there is ever an issue, the teacher will do whatever it takes to resolve the problem even if it means giving freely of their own personal time. The teachers and administration not only know each child by name, they are also well aware of their individual personalities and demeanor. As such, they are very attuned to any problems that may arise. It is this individual attention that our children receive that makes this school stand out in the community.
GREAT SCHOOL!!!!!! Very warm family enviroinment, teachers are very caring and supportive.We are very pleased that we have found Mason Prep.
I am a student at Mason Preparatory School. I have enjoyed the school for many years now and it offers great experiences and oppertunities! In my opinion you need to put your child in this school if you want them to have a good education. YOUR child will have great friends and there is no bullying what so ever. You will love the teachers and staff who are very involved with you children. YOUR child will be super prepared for highschool. Your child will love everything about this school. WHAT A GREAT ENVIREMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a parent of a 4th and 2nd grader and we absolutely love this school! I certainly don't agree with the writer that the teachers are uncaring. The school does expect much from the student but this is only to mold them into responsible and caring citizens. Our children are our future! The faculty/staff/teachers are exceptional in every way...
It is a great school and it helps me laern quick.
Our child has enjoyed this school for the last 3 years. The shool is challenging and offers study's one year in advance of the grade. The staff and teachers are very involved with the children and parents. This is school is for those students that take learning seriously.
We were in the public school system until this year, when my son started Mason Prep as a 3rd Grader. I was shocked to read about the parents who felt that the 'Teachers were extremely uptight with little caring attitude shown to students' This is the exact opposite of my experience. The teachers have communicated with us via e-mail or phone at least twice weekly, we had a 1 hour conference with both teachers to help us adapt to our son's learning style, and everyone has been very positive and helpful. The enviroment is nuturing and supportive and my son has thrived here. We are involved parents and that may help beacuse they know we want the best education for our son. We couldn't be more pleased.
Mason is for serious students with a superior family support. Mason EXPECTS this. Parents can be treated shabbily by other Mason parents who are not available for PTA and volunteering during the day (being a scientist isn t conducive to that, so I was shunned at first). Mason Prep 3rd graders use 4th grade textbooks (and they are labeled as such), so it is a deliberately advanced curriculum. The small school allows for every child to be known by all faculty. The location is great for MUSC faculty, who are 2 blocks away. I recommend Mason if your child is very self-motivated, extremely self-disciplined, and highly independent from the first grade (less than that makes for a painful experience).
Certainly not a school for everyone. My child was miserable at this school during 1st and 2nd grades. Teachers were extremely uptight with little caring attitude shown to students. My child forgot to 'love learning.' Asking questions in class was not welcomed. Grading not objective.
This is a wonderful school. My kids have thrived here. Everyone knows you by name and sincerely care about your kids.

Cleveland, Tenn. — The Museum Center at 5ive Points' Annual Gala will be held on Friday, September 19, at 6:30 p.m. This year's black-tie event, "Friday Night Fever" salutes the era of polyester and disco as the seventies come to life at the Museum Center. Proceeds benefit the museum's slate of dynamic exhibits and educational programs for our community. Tickets include an evening with cocktails, dinner, live and silent auctions, and a live concert event with the "Kings of Disco" – the Village People. Black tie or period attire is requested. Tickets can be purchased online at www.museumcenter.org/gala or by calling 423-339-5745.
"We've been able to make significant progress over the past year in regards to the quality of our exhibits and programming and we certainly couldn't do it without the support of the community," said Executive Director Hassan Najjar. "All of us are getting ready to catch "Friday Night Fever" and we are certainly thankful to Check Into Cash for sponsoring the Village People in what will certainly be an unforgettable night".
"The Village People are legendary for their amazing concerts and Check Into Cash is proud to help the museum by bringing them to town," said President, Steve Scoggins of Check Into Cash. "When you mention the greatest acts in history, the Village People are right up there with Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones and even the newer stars like Carrie Underwood. This is as good as it gets."
"The money raised by our Annual Gala is an essential part of our yearly operating budget and the announcement that the Village People will be our entertainment means this years event will be another huge success," says President of the Board of Trustees Andy Brown. "The Museum thrives because of the support of our members, the community, and individuals like the Jones family. Their generosity is a significant part of why the Museum continues to thrive".
The Annual Gala will honor Allan and Janie Jones and their contributions to the Museum Center and our community. The Museum Center at 5ive Points would also like to thank Jones Management for their support as well as supporting sponsors, Bank of Cleveland and the McReynolds Family Foundation. Additional support for the Annual Gala is provided by: Richard and Amy Banks, First Tennessee, and Logan-Thompson, P.C.
The Museum Center at 5ive Points tells the story of the Ocoee region through compelling exhibitions and dynamic educational programming that promotes history, culture, and preservation. The Museum Store features arts, crafts, and books from select artists, craftsman, and authors from within a 200-mile radius. Hours are Tuesday-Friday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., and Saturday 10 a.m.-3 p.m. The museum is closed Sunday, Monday, and on select holidays. Admission is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and students, and free for children under 5. Members of the Museum receive free admission.

Cameron Russell (born June 14, 1987)[1] is an American fashion model.
Early life[edit]
Cameron Russell was born in Boston, and raised in Cambridge.[3] Her mother is Robin Chase, founder of Zipcar. Her father is an engineer and CEO of GoLoco, a car-pooling and social networking company.[4]
Russell displayed an interest in politics at an early age,[5] and friends who had worked on the Clinton Presidential election campaign arranged a meeting on June 5, 1998 (when she was 10) with Bill Clinton after he delivered a speech at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[6] His advice to her was to stay in school, get to know as many different types of people as she could, and to understand their dreams and aspirations.[citation needed] She graduated from the Commonwealth School in 2005.[7]
Modeling career[edit]
Russell's mother had a friend who worked at Ford Models agency, and Russell decided to sign with that agency in 2003. She later moved on to DNA Model Management in 2006, switched to Women Management in 2008, and then moved to Elite Model Management in 2011.[8][9]
Since beginning her modeling career part-time at the age of 16, Russell has worked with numerous successful photographers including Steven Meisel, Craig McDean, and Nick Knight among others, in such magazines as American, French, Italian, Spanish, German and Japanese Vogue, W, Self Service and Numéro.[8] She has featured in advertising campaigns for companies including Ann Taylor, Benetton, Louis Vuitton, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Armani, Oscar de la Renta, and Yves Saint Laurent.[8]
Russell has featured in runway fashion shows for designers including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, Versace, Vivienne Westwood, Ralph Lauren, Victoria's Secret, and Diane von Fürstenberg.[10]
In October 2012, Russell gave a presentation entitled "Looks aren't Everything. Believe me, I'm a Model" at TEDx Mid-Atlantic, which is one of TED's 20 most popular talks [11] of all time. In it, she described herself as having won "a genetic lottery," emphasized the selection and styling of models on the basis of a bias on looks and skin colour, and added: "it was difficult to unpack a legacy of gender and racial oppression when I am one of the greatest beneficiaries".[12] The presentation was covered by The Huffington Post, which described the TED video as "refreshingly frank,"[13] and CNN, which invited Russell to a roundtable discussion.[14]
Personal life[edit]
She briefly attended Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, her mother's alma mater, before transferring to Columbia University after her freshman year. She majored in economics and political science.[15]

It's all well and good making art and illustration that focuses in on humdrum observations of our meagre existences, but wouldn't you rather have a whole bunch of images that dip their toes in the sci-fi pool of chance and dance through the stars on pronged, mythical wildflowers? I know I would, which is why I'm particularly pleased with stumbling across the work of Singeon, a French illustrator whose horny, mythological drawings and paintings are like an ever-changing ecosystem, ranging from small watercolour doodles of food (standard) to double-headed medieval babes in outer space (not so standard). He's part of team Flickr, so if you like what you see here I urge you to go and check out even more of his work over here on his page.
We've been talking a lot recently about the gradual shift of the internet: websites becoming more advanced, successful blogs being abandoned left right and centre, artists adopting new ways of uploading and sharing music. What I've been curious about is the gradual change we're going to witness in music videos. Gone are the hi-octane, fleshy, music videos that were rife a few years back, and it seems that increasingly bands are not as keen to peacock themselves around and taking a back seat is the cool thing to do. Maybe it's also to do with the attention span thing that everyone goes on about, why would you want to watch a four-minute music video with a narrative that you won't understand until you see the end when you can just watch a beautiful piece of ambient animation?
Photographer John Kilar was born in Istanbul, grew up in California and then settled in Los Angeles, for a bit. He now lives a nomadic life, traveling round with his point-and-shoot camera documenting the world as he sees it with an honesty and pathos and humour which strikes us to the very core. He also has a great way of talking about art and life which is inspiring without being patronising or cheesy; it's just him doing what he does and calling it as he sees it. Particularly enamoured by his pictures of festivals, we tracked him down in Texas to ask him a few questions…
Spectacular promo film here from Reebok, inviting you to "give me your classics and I'll show you the future." As well as taking you swerving around northern A-roads in a BMW E28 M5 (dream car) stopping briefly on the way to pick up a blonde girl in the leafy suburbs (dream babe) this short film perfectly promotes the nostalgia associated with the Reebok Classics.
The work of Brian Edward Miller is a cross between the digital and the retro: his sketches could easily be found in the satchel of a 1950s art student, but when put into the computer and twiddled with they look just as at home in a high-tech animation for a company like Adobe. "My goal is to provide quality illustration and storytelling with the professional hard working ideals my family modelled to me and to chase down that elusive vintage aesthetic which played such a powerful role in my childhood," Brian states on his site. Judging by the list of people who have commissioned this guy of late, it seems like we're not the only ones to find his work impossible to look away from.
Normally we have to scrabble about, beg, or leave hampers on doorsteps of famous photographers in order to interview them. By some divine miracle, Creative Director at Sony Music and absolutely legendary music photographer Josh Cheuse came knocking on our door. Would we mind posting about his work in the lead-up to his solo show in New York? Certainly not. Could we ask him some questions about his spectacular firework of a life hopping across the pond and back again to photograph some of the world's most famous musicians? Sure.
A brief serving suggestion before you lean back and scroll through this spectacular new work from Josh Reim: put on the Twin Peaks theme tune and sniff some tennis balls. The last time we featured Josh's work it was to rave about his extraordinarily unique look book for his Autumn/Winter 14 collection which he had shot with the help of his best pal and collaborator, Jetro Emilcar. In his third collection the 18-tear-old ex-skateboarder and designer from Montreal has channelled the cold, dark vibe of the leisure activities of the wealthy.
It's time to play Spot the Creative here in this fantastic video from Rotterdam design studio From Form. I was going to say that it was an animation, but that's the beauty of this film – it's totally not. By using clever, olde worlde-style fairground aesthetics they've conjured up a mechanical set with which to promote the annual Reasons to Create conference.
Want to know a surprising secret about self-proclaimed "book obsessive" and Dazed & Confused editor Isabella Burley? She can't stand big coffee-table-sized fashion books. "I've always taken my references from art, pop culture, photography and sex zines rather than fashion," she told us. "That's really come to shape the way I approach our fashion content within Dazed."
I think we can all agree that in the past few years food photography has pretty much reigned the internet as far as image-porn blogging is concerned. And yes, photographing tangerines on bright blue backgrounds does always look nice, we get it. But among the thousands of people documenting food in order to gain online notoriety there are some photographers who are known in the industry as the ones who can really, really shoot food.
Not much makes us as happy as a brilliant studio churning out spectacular work, but to find out each member is a fantastic designer in their own right is even better. Diogo Potes just got in touch to show us some of his personal work away from his day-to-day collaborative venture, Portuguese design studio Alva Alva. Diogo's solo work boasts all of the vibrancy, sense of humour and love of hand-drawn elements that Alva Alva has, but also contains a good dollop of personal style. For me, I think his work is strongest when he incorporates photography into his designs – something about choosing off-the-wall shots and enveloping them in rich colours and bold typography is very, very pleasing. Nice work Diogo, keep it up!
Creativity can come in all shapes and sizes, and yeah we've posted a lot of great stuff this week. A project or painting someone has been working on for years can change your life entirely, as can one photograph or spectacular piece of design. Sometimes, though, it can just be the opening credits of an old cartoon remade with real animals. Thank you then to Disney and their blog Oh My Disney for creating and sharing something so intricate and bonkers it's blown all art ever made out of the water. Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you the DuckTales Theme Song With Real Ducks.
Howdy! The new issue of Printed Pages magazine is out, and we're happy to announce that deep within its wondrous pages lies an in-depth article studying the impact of Americana on art and design. To celebrate the launch of the mag we thought we'd dedicate this week's mix to Americana, and the seemingly infinite pot of inspiration that artists and musicians have been delving into through time that is the United States. Read along with your own copy of Printed Pages you can get from over here.
Double dose of good news here for fans of magic wand-fingered artist Patrick Kyle. He's got a new publication out! It's called Distance Mover and it looks incredible. "It's a science fiction comic that follows the exploits of a character called Mr Earth and his flying machine the Distance Mover, a vehicle capable of moving great distances at fantastic speeds!" Patrick told us.
HELLO and welcome to another episode of Studio Audience. This week Rob, Liv, Maisie and James are chewing the fat about the world of art and design and content. What are you waiting for dum-dums? As ever you can listen using the SoundCloud embed below or you can subscribe via iTunes here.
Some may think it's easy to shoot Kate Moss. People have been doing it for years, but to my knowledge no one has ever done it poorly. Today we can say for sure that a major element of shooting Kate with real oomph is having a sheer passion for the model – as Alister Mackie explains in this interview. The creative director describes her energy as "buzzing" and speaks warmly of their time spent in her back garden as she lay in the grass for this AnOther Magazine cover shoot with the tone of someone who's just coming down from a transcendental experience. What's really great here is how someone like Alister, whose career is already packed full of things we proles can only dream of, can speak of a fashion shoot with such pure, palpable excitement.
I have ALWAYS wanted to know the ins-and-outs of the whole beans and farts thing, and there is no one else on this earth I'd rather have explain it to me than Rami Niemi. This animation commissioned by Men's Health and animated by Vancouver creative studio Giant Ant is the perfect blend of funny, well-executed and actually informative. A lot of the words popping up such as "oligosaccharides" or "pepsin" took me winging straight back to double biology, followed by the joyous realisation that I am now a grown up and I have the option to turn off or walk away whenever I get bored – wahey! Saying that, this animation is so well made it doesn't even reach boring – if only all scientific matters could be explained in a one-minute-long animation by your favourite illustrator.
Considering New York band Parquet Courts recently announced in an interview that they were staying away from social media and the web because it wasn't "punk," it comes as something of a surprise that lo-fi punk master Ty Segall has just released a music video with an accompanying interactive website. I guess this is what happens when you make brilliant, unique music – artists start queuing up to interpret it for you, be it through artwork, remixes or websites.
In light of New York Fashion Week's main event, a star-studded play put on by Opening Ceremony entitled 100% Lost Cotton, the It's Nice That team began to ponder their own individual dream play, and what that would look like if they were given the chance to direct it. The results are pretty weird to be honest, but you can't deny the appeal of each and every one in its own way.
Here it is, the third issue (or volume) of KENZINE, the spectacular publication sporadically released by the fashion brand that never fails to be utterly garish and desirable at once. This time the magazine has been taken over by the TOILETPAPER lads, Maurizio Cattelan, Pierpaolo Ferrari and Micol Talso. KENZO have been known for producing some of the most colourful, zany stuff out there in the fashion world of late – so to collaborate with their publishing counterparts seems to be something of a match made in heaven. Want one of your own? Good luck, "KENZINE Vol.3 will be available from 27th September 2014 exclusively in KENZO stores worldwide and from March 2015 in other selected retail stores." We asked the KENZO press guys for a copy and were told no way, so if you see one – grab it! For now, the pictures below will have to do.
Due to their consistent brilliance we tend to drop everything when we hear of a new Metronomy video. Well, today it's happened again, this time for their new single Month of Sundays. The video was directed by filmmaker Callum Cooper and was shot on a cloudy London day in the Barbican and other famous Brutalist residential buildings in London. Using a clever spinning technique not dissimilar to the skipping rope GoPros of old, Callum followed and shot the band as they strolled around and posed among various dark stairways and openings. Taking one of the UK's favourite bands and buildings and combining them together to create a simple and utterly compelling music video makes for some of the best watching we've had in ages, even if it does make us feel a bit seasick at times. You can read more about it in this interview with him and the band over on Nowness.
We love Jack Hudson. Sometimes I find myself staring at his drawings open-mouthed like a magic eye image – the level of minuscule is like in a Wes Anderson film, every time you go back to an image you'll find something you didn't notice before. The clever bunch over at Computer Arts decided to commission London-based Jack to make their magazine look sweet, and so he did. We caught up with him to find out how on earth you go about designing a magazine cover, and to find out the back-stories of the teeny characters featured within it. First one to spot Mr Bingo wins a Kit-Kat!
Simon Penochet is responsible for making one of the sexiest adverts for a chocolate factory ever! In fact, we featured his career-making short back in June this year. We wanted to know more about the director, and what better way to get a good idea of his influence than by asking him to pick his favourite music video? Well, there probably are better ways to be honest, but this will do for now. Also anyone who picks a film made by CANADA must be on to a winner. Take it away Simon!
Just when you thought the only time you'd get to see some fruit getting jiggy with each other was the last time you ate a Moam bar, here's Amelie von Wulffen's paintings. Amelie's work is a refreshing, sometimes sinister, sometimes sexual series of water-colour paintings depicting a strange mixture of food and tools interacting with each other as if they were humans – eating ice cream and going to music concerts and the like. As well as reducing mankind down to what it really is – a bunch of ridiculous creatures bumbling around the earth – Amelie's real success here is bringing dark comedy into the largely unfunny art world, and for that she should be praised.
When drinking warm cider in a park starts to get boring it's good to know that autumn is there waiting like a trusty friend in a really great jumper just around the corner. Did you know that the season is as treacherous as it is beautiful? More people step in dog poo in autumn than in any other months. Fact. It lurks beneath kickable piles of leaves. On the plus side it is well-known for its magic feeling of refreshment – a certain back-to-school vibe that makes new projects and friendships seem exciting and energised.
Welcome! Welcome to the podcast we make weekly for your enjoyment. Yep, we put our blood sweat and tears into sitting around and chewing the fat so that you can just listen to us while you sit on the train and be totally "in the know" about all things art and design. We don't just talk about art and design actually, we sometimes cover British folklore or, more commonly, how James used to be a goth.
For me the commissioning, content and tone of The Gentlewoman are absolutely unparalleled in the magazine industry, and it gives me nothing but sheer joy to open a copy and have it satisfyingly flop on to the table to devour. Here at It's Nice That we look forward to seeing the new cover and the choice of woman featured on it more than any other publication. The new cover of the bi-annual must-have magazine is out, and this time the star is Swedish electronic music artist, Robyn.
Redesigns are so often chewed up and spat out in the design world, so when one comes along that simultaneously blows the socks off each and every one of your colleagues upon seeing it, you know it's going to be worth digging a little deeper. When that redesign is an online space it becomes so much more intriguing than a print publication doing the same thing; the web is like a constantly surging ocean and to move with the tide can be treacherous.
This week Editor Liv Siddall addresses the world's distraught reaction to the announcement that MSN Messenger will terminate after 15 years in operation, and wonders if we should get so nostalgic and wet-eyed over technology.
Cosmic brilliance here from Jesse Fillingham, whose fantastical work is sending shivers all over me this morning. His confident line images seem to draw inspiration from teen sci-fi novels, video games, Shakespeare and the work of Roger Dean, bringing it all together to form a heady combination of past and future. Jesse graduated back in 2010 from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena and has since been exhibiting his work across American and Europe to what I can only imagine are die-hard fans. If you find yourself lost in the bizarre nature of his Kate Bush digital image or the transient surreality of Cosmic Contemplation 2, take your eyeballs for a gander at his simple line drawings. Extract / Sunset / Pointer is insanely well-drawn and I can't stop looking at it. One for the "favourites" folder I think.
WARNING do not watch this if you are afraid of family members dying and then being messily devoured in front of your very eyes by OTHER members of your own family. Seriously, parts of this video were deemed unwatchable by most of the It's Nice That editorial team, which I think is perhaps why I love it so much.
An old soul such as myself appreciates when modern-day designers and illustrators go out of their way to make something look like it fell out of a cardboard box that hasn't been opened since 1972. When I first came across SEEN I was convinced it was a whole group of people, but it turns out it's just one really talented guy called Rob Carmichael. He alone is responsible for creating some of the best album artwork around at the moment.
Great mix this week from the lady with the hair, Ella Eyre. Ella went to the Brit School and has since gone on to be a very successful singer whose collaboration with the likes of Rudimental, Wiz Khalifa and Naughty Boy have caught the attention of, well, pretty much everyone. Most of the world is talking about her hair (mainly on Twitter) and why not? It's certainly the best hair I've ever seen. This mix from her is a good old fashioned combination of her influences and faves and is a perfect way to kick-start the weekend. Want more? You can read a fun interview with Ella over on Noisey
A bright red book emblazoned with gold type exclaiming "MICHAEL JACKSON" is like the art publication version of click-bait. Michael Jackson and Other Men is a collection of drawings by artist Dawn Mellor, produced when she was a teenager and she was really, really into Michael Jackson. "However commonplace these kind of adolescent drawings might be, they are a precursor to Dawn's concern with celebrity and fan culture; also functioning as subjective social documents," say Studio Voltaire, who published the title. "There is something endearing, and somewhat pathetic, about the Jackson drawings – both as a reminder of a tragic cultural icon and the indication of the burgeoning sexuality and artistic ambition of the young artist."
A few weeks back we posted about a music video for a band called Plurabelle which was directed by Mattis Dovier. Curious as to how he had created the pixel effect, we ventured into his online portfolio which was like an Aladdin's Cave of excellent, juicy GIFs. What is it about GIFS? Why the appeal? There is something inexplicably wonderful about seeing or hearing something on a loop, it seems naughty – something you shouldn't waste your time doing, like throwing a ball against a wall or spitting over a bridge. I think we can all agree that the best GIFS out there show people (or dogs) hurting themselves or being clumsy in some way, which is why Mattis' violent and very well-crafted selection went down so well with us. Our favourite? The running sumo or the motorbike spin, hands down.
Let's get this straight – no one uses colour pencils like Yann Kebbi. His rushing waves of familiar greens and reds depict street scenes filled with fumes, scowls, ageing pedestrians and whooshing movement – always with a dry happiness and a side order of mystery. Recently Yann's wry depictions of human life have been featured in The New York Times and other prestigious rags, but some of his most interesting work lies in the personal sketches he whacks up on his blog for people like me to dribble at. The seemingly slapdash paintings of his family and the Hockney-esque sketches of the French countryside are exquisite, and proof that Yann has got so many more styles to try out yet before he perfects his repertoire.
Sometimes the sad story of Arthur Russell's life mixed with the whimsical howling and rousing sounds he creates is altogether too much to even bear – but we still torment ourselves, tuning in even when going through a break up or driving alone in the rain. When surreal, sad music is accompanied by something as funny as, say, The Muppets – something peculiar and unexpected can happen. In this edit by John Michael Boling we see a perfectly (and I mean perfectly) cut mash-up of Arthur Russell's haunting That's Us / Wild Combination and scenes from The Muppets Movie. The reason people think art is hard to make is because they don't understand how such a simple idea or a wild combination can work so incredibly well. Thank you John Michael Boling for reminding us of this fact. Thank you.
I always had a hunch that Bruno Bayley was the kind of guy with a great bookshelf – you can just tell that he's a hoarder of the weird, the kind of person who would rather stumble upon someone's diary in a forest than, say, a suitcase full of cash. London-based Bruno is the European managing editor of Vice, which allows him to take his curiosity for the dark corners of the world and pump them out to those who want to know but perhaps can't be bothered to look. His articles are some of the best on Vice at the moment, so go and check them out after you've read his deeply interesting, peculiar top five books. Excuse us while we go and subscribe to the Fortean Times…
Let's get this straight, Anna Victoria Best's work is maybe some of the most exciting photography I've ever seen. That may sound like a total exaggeration but it's true – it is not often that someone's work is so consistently brilliant throughout an entire portfolio, or that a few simple portraits can hold such a huge amount of power. If I wasn't taken with the photos of Ashley Williams (which I was, a lot) then the fashion editorial shoot for Varon was like the photographic equivalent of pudding. You can almost hear those shoes squeaking on the lino as they do the Twist.
Most of London is dirty and smelly all year round, but lovely, pretty west London really only gets a good old fashioned soiling once a year for the Notting Hill Carnival. The August bank holiday is here and yes, it's Carnival time. We were going to make an in-house mix but then we realised what a bad idea that was (we tend to listen to things like Bob Dylan and that weird song by Bill Wyman). In our panic we asked south London DJ Bradley Zero to help us out, and he's given us a well-informed mix of songs to take us through until terrible Tuesday. He also included some snaps of his time in Dominica to go with the mix he's put together, which you can see below.

Man has serious injuries after crash on Heckscher Drive
Updated On: Jun 08 2014 09:51:21 PM EDT
A Jacksonville man has serious injuries after a crash near Huguenot Memorial Park on Sunday, according to the Florida highway Patrol.
FHP said a Jeep Wrangler driven by Donald R. Smith, 47, of Jacksonville, was traveling north on Heckscher drive when it lost control coming around a curve, causing it to travel off the right side of the roadway where it struck a sign support pole.
The Wrangler then traveled back onto the roadway and into the southbound
lane, striking a Ford F-250 driven by Angel Colon.
The Wrangler then overturned into the woods, ejecting Smith, who was taken to UF Health Jacksonville with serious injuries. Colon and his passenger Marie Colon suffered minor injuries.

Some Game-Day Notes To Keep You OccupiedPosted by on September 9, 2010 – 1:20 pm
It's finally game day as kickoff to the 2010 regular season is now just hours away. But the anticipation still mounts. To hold you over for just a few more hours, here are a few game-day notes to chew on…
Vikings On Opening Day
– Vikings Head Coach Brad Childress is 3-1 in season openers, defeating the Washington Redskins 19-16 in 2006, the Atlanta Falcons 24-3 in '07, the Cleveland Browns 34-20 in '09 and falling to the Green Bay Packers 24-19 in 2008.
– Over the team's 49-year history, the Vikings are a combined 28-20-1 on opening day.
– The Vikings have opened the regular season against the Saints just twice, both games in New Orleans in 1976 (9/12) and 1978 (9/3). Minnesota is 1-1 in those games, beating the Saints 40-9 in 1976 and losing 24-31 two years later .
Vikings vs. Saints Series Notes
– The Vikings hold an overall 20-8-0 record against the Saints; they are 12-2 at home and 8-6 at New Orleans.
– The Vikings have outscored New Orleans 771-493 in the 28-game series and have averaged 27.5 points per game against the Saints.
– The Vikings have won the last 3 of the last 4 matchups in the Super Dome.
– Fourteen of the Vikings 20 wins have been by 10+ points and 7 of them have been by 20+ points.

Read this article and see if you still believe. The truth hurts…….
By Richard (Purple Elephant) on Sep 9, 2010 | Reply
Hey Thanks RESQR, I'm a even bigger fan of his now. I don't think people want to admit how good he is. Now he has played 20 straight years at quarteback, without missing a game, the position that everybody is trying to go after, he has not missed a game, he has damm near every quarterback record, why, gee, I don't know, maybe because he is one of the best of all time. A punter or kick-off kicker won't last 20 years. I would bet many teams if they knew they were getting a Brett Favre they would give up all there draft choices for 5 straight years. Not only could a coach, team, fans ask for anything more from a quarterback, he lifts the team, he's running around the team pumping them up, congratulating team players when they make a good play. You are missing out on a chance to watch one of the best players if to play the game. How many players get there millions of dollars they get hurt and 3 years later there finished, thats what I'm talking about, he's in there to play, not the money. Does that ring any bells on what is a dream quarterback, he desreves to wear the cap that says Superbowl Champions one more time. Thanks Richard (The Purple Elephant Guy)

He did not ask for the money. They gave him the money as an inticement dumb ass. Brett Favre is a leader and a motivator and not a dommsdayer like you.
By Matt on Sep 9, 2010 | Reply
I couldn't agree more Rich. Even if we lost every game this season and he didn't throw one TD pass, he'd still go down as one of the greatest players to ever touch a football. It doesn't matter much what others say. Myself and the rest of the TRUE Vikings fans will always remember 2009. SKOAL Vikes!!!!

Very well put Matt…. They are just upset because he doesn't play for their teams and the simple fact that they are intimidated by what the Vikes can do!!!

Please tell me what relevance this article has on the game tonight ? Really, if you note the stats your Vikings have declined since 2006 under Childress.
I have to emphasize that as long as the Wilf's keep Childress your talented team will continue to decline in years to come.
Take it from us in New Orleans through all of our Heart Ache Years and the Excuses of our Third Rate Coaches we have had previously, the nucleus of any good or great team has to start with the Leadership, Chemistry and Continuity of Coaching, General Managing and Ownership.
I really pitty you die hard Viking Fan's and we are not slighting your Team because all of your players are very talented. Until the Ziggy and Mark open their eyes you will go through some agonizing times. Good Luck, Good Health to all of our players. WHODATNATION.

I was born a packer fan and am now a Vikings fan forever. I am a B rett Favre fan forever. I remember for about 25 years the packers were lousy, and then we got Brett Favre. Wow, he made us great again. What Brett accomplished was amazing. I believe he has made a lot of people football fans! To watch him play is magical! I feel that if Brett had better protection with the Packers he would have been to and won a lot more Super Bowls. We spent many games yelling at the coach to give Brett some protection. He is the greatest there is and he would have been greater if he had just had the protection. People that hate him like Packer fans are rediculous. He has made football a blast to watch. I hope Brett has a great year. Protect him.
