Hotchkiss resident Barbara Gates died May 22, 2013, at Delta County Memorial Hospital. She was 83.
Funeral services were held May 28 at Hotchkiss Community United Methodist Church.
Barbara Grace Halliburton was born in Arkadelphia, Ark., April 8, 1930, to W.H. and Grace (Leonard) Halliburton. She grew up in Arkadelphia, graduating from Arkadelphia High School in 1948. She earned a bachelor of music education degree from Henderson State Teachers College in Arkadelphia in 1952.
She moved to Crossett, Ark., in the fall of 1952 to begin teaching public school music.
She married Don Gates in 1955 and moved with him to Grand Junction, Paonia and finally Hotchkiss where they lived until Don's death in 1991.
Mrs. Gates taught school in Fruita, Paonia and Hotchkiss until she had children. She continued to substitute teach for several years.
She was active in the Hotchkiss Community United Methodist Church and its Peace Circle, the Hotchkiss Music and Arts Club, Delta County Historical Society and PEO Chapter GT. In earlier years she was active in Hotchkiss PTA and Sunshine School. For many years she hosted a classical music program on KVNF.
Mrs. Gates is survived by her daughters, Janet Nottenburg and husband Richard of Princeton, N.J., and Linda Perry and husband Tom of Trinidad; her son, Hal Gates of Hotchkiss; her grandchildren, Arthur of New York, N.Y., and Katherine of Princeton, N.J.; her sister, Caryl Linton of Arkadelphia, Ark.; and nephews Scot Linton of Fayetteville, Ark., and Andy Linton of Huntington, Ark.; and extended family.

Taylor Funeral Service and Crematory is handling the arrangements.

Bitfighter is a game that feels a little like Asteroids on steroids. It's a multiplayer space-based combat and strategy game, featuring customized ships, multiple game modes, cool retro graphics, and smooth network play. It also includes a full featured level editor, Lua scriptable bots, and other cool features. It has a very active development team, so the game keeps improving.
BOH is a unique retro-flavoured puzzle-riddled maze game. The player moves in claustrophobic, mysterious, dangerous battlefields searching for the Evil Masters, who throw countless enemies at you until you discover and face them in the final battle. Although quests are made slightly less hard by the power-ups scattered all around, carrying out the missions demands lots of concentration and quick reflexes. New missions and themes can be added anytime, and you can even create your own.
Pioneer is a space adventure game set in the Milky Way galaxy at the turn of the 31st century. The game is open-ended, and you are free to explore the millions of star systems in the game. You can land on planets, slingshot past gas giants, and burn yourself to a crisp flying between binary star systems. Pioneer has a sneaking resemblance to Frontier: Elite 2.
Arx Libertatis is a cross-platform, open source port of Arx Fatalis, a 2002 first-person role-playing game developed by Arkane Studios. Arx Fatalis features crafting, melee and ranged combat, and a unique casting system where the player draws runes in real time to effect the desired spell. The Arx Libertatis source code is based on the publicly released Arx Fatalis sources. This does however not include the game data, so you need to obtain a copy of the original Arx Fatalis or its demo.
Oolite is an independent reinterpretation and ehancement of the classic space sim game Elite for modern computers. The result is a space trading and combat simulation offering encounters with pirates, police, bounty hunters, the occasional alien menace, and other surprises along the way. While striving to reach the coveted Elite status, the players set their own path through the various galaxies, choosing to be trader, pirate, or bounty hunter depending on the situation at hand, and their own judgement. The game is hugely expandable, using a combination of property lists and JavaScript. Oolite's active modding community already provides more than 200 OXPs (Oolite eXpansion Packs). Among them are a huge variety of missions, weapons, ships, and extra career paths over and above what's available within the core game, as well as a number of other gameplay enhancements and customizations.
Gigalomania is a 2D real time strategy game that is a clone of Mega-Lo-Mania. The gameplay consists of researching and developing new technology with which to conquer your enemies, from rocks and sticks to nuclear weapons and spaceships. You can advance through ten different ages, from the stone age to the future. There are 28 different maps to play through. The game is still under development, but is entirely playable in its current state.

So basically domain 1 is a keyword domain name and 2 is a brandable domain name.
-My personal opinion-
Keyword domain names are easier to develop and brandable requires more marketing. So, the easiest way to go would be a keyword domain name.
That being said, if it were me, I would go for brandable. I cast my vote for Domain 2

CES: Verizon's 4G is more than just phones
Verizon Wireless did its best to steal the mobile show at its CES press conference yesterday. Not only did we get the long-rumored Xoom Honeycomb tablet, but the carrier also unveiled the first selection of handsets to go with its new LTE 4G network.
Admittedly, we're focused on the new handsets, like the Motorola Droid Bionic, the Samsung 4G LTE, the HTC Thunderbolt, and the LG Revolution, but Verizon had a couple of other tricks up its sleeve. In addition to Samsung's new Mobile Hotspot, which Bonnie Cha already mentioned, Big Red also unveiled another hot spot and … Read more

Chi-Chi's Recent Favorites
Hello darlings! I wanted to share some of my favorites that I've purchased relatively recently - new products are wonderful y/y?
- OPI Natural Nail Strengthener | $9: This is the saving grace of my nails - my nails are quite fragile and soft, and this product has made strong enough to grow consistently!
- Avon Ultra Luxury Eye Liner in Black Flash | $6: This is rivaling my love for the Tarina Tarantino liners mentioned here - creamy, takes a bit to set, does not move on my oily lids. Very black and quite shiny (Avon should make a matte version - would purchase!)
- Revlon Nearly Naked Pressed Powder in Deep | $9.99: This is a wonderful, soft powder that sets most of my foundations nicely, including my cream and liquid foundations.
- Wet n Wild Fergie Eyeshadow Primer | $4.99: Pretty much this is the only eyeshadow primer other than NARS Pro Prime Smudgeproof Base that works on my oily lids. Has the consistency similar to that of UDPP (but works better because UDPP does nothing for me).
- Make Up For Ever Full Cover Concealer in Dark Beige (12) | $32: This concealer is hard to work with under the eyes; however, it does not move on after it sets until you want it to move. I'm…in love.
- Maybelline Blush in Coral Burst (from the Spring 2013 LE collection): I saw Muse's review of this blush and determined that I must have it because it looked absolutely beautiful. Then I bought it and it exceeded expectations so I went back and bought a backup. i regret nothing

HTC One S Meta Hands-On/Review From Around The Internets Let's kick this off with a quick note and mention that all the HTC One S review device you're seeing in these videos is the global edition and not the version that will arrive on T-Mobile.

Samsung Twitter Account Accidentally Spills Galaxy S II Processor Info?

T-Mobile Didn't Show Galaxy S II Device Because Of Processor Changes? While I expressed a great deal of disappoint that T-Mobile didn't show off their Galaxy S II device last night at the Samsung Press Event, I clearly wasn't alone.

I wish that more people could just be real- be yourself because trying to be someone you are not will eventually lead to disaster. Money is great but can't buy love- looks will fade you have to love someone inside out- most of all you have to love yourself before you can love someone else. For men my age that want to date the young 20 something's I have to chuckle:) for the much younger men that would like to date women my age I have to chuckle! There is much to say about physical attraction this is true- but life stages are what they are- I embrace the different things I have experienced- was married 18 years having my daughter and growing my business-I have no regrets- life is about choices and finding mutualty with someone
Yes, on the Internet we do often shed our normal dress of reality...sometimes politeness too.
With men and free to join, there becomes an accumilation of them at most sites, that feel a need to compete...with other men. That often creates a need to appear as at least, a little more than they really are.
If carried away with that as they say...soon he's really only a fantasy, in his own eyes. Yes, some have a right to celebrate...but not too much.
Women here are the opposite I think. That's the real draw. The women being buried in email, can reflect to us...just what and who they really are.
In real life we balance the pluses and minuses. One or two of the pluses might completely override all of the minuses presuming the minuses don't include psychopath or some such. On the internet one or two trivial minuses can override all the pluses.
A perfect for you person never gets to display his or her good side since that may include subtle stuff that you may not even know about
It takes time to really know someone, while internet dating tends to reject people before you even have met them based on superficial crap.
I like wwww12345's blog, "Are you looking for the right stuff."
You are not going to determine "the right stuff" from anyone's profile.
I hear ya... Problem is these days we are all so busy to meet people that the Internet becomes a quicker avenue to try to get to meet new people... And I think some may never intend to meet someone in person so they play what could be classified as games sad thing is for some having email pen pals may be enough
The problem with 'being real' though is partially the medium we're using to talk to others. Some will be honest, and some will be dishonest. It's the same as reality, but it's easier to hide who and what you are when you're behind a computer.
It's also easier for some to detach themselves from the fact that there are real live individuals, with feelings behind each of these profiles.
I've been online for several years, and one of the things I've personally found is that the closer you talk to people from your own area, the less likely they are to lie. This isn't always true, but it's been my experience. I think it's the likelihood of meeting up that keeps their 'artistic license' at bay.
I made the mistake when I first came online in believing that everyone would be as open and straightforward as myself. I was quickly removed of this notion *grins*, and I'm wiser for it.

Buffalo fire crews were busy late last night battling a fire at Louie's Hot Dog restaurant on Elmwood Ave. YNN's Kate McGowan has more.
BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The windows at Louie's Hot Dogs are now boarded up, and shattered glass covers the sidewalk where the restaurant sits.
A fast moving fire swept through the building early Saturday morning.
"I had seen these flames shooting above the roof and it was pretty amazing. First fire I've really ever seen up close and personal," said a witness, Matthew Wargin.
"Made entry and made sure everybody was evacuated. As they were making entry, fire started rolling over the heads, out the front door. They were able to knock it down real quick," explained Buffalo fire chief, Jim Hayes.
Fire investigators said there were about ten customers inside and about five employees working when the fire started, but luckily everyone made it out safely.
"There was not a panic at all. We just orderly got them out and our employees got out," expressed the restaurant manager. "Fire people, police got here and they were all fantastic."
Fire officials said most damage from the fire is in the kitchen area but said there was also some smoke damage to a number of offices upstairs.
Investigators believe the fire may have started in a chimney in the kitchen.
"We are going to rebuild and we will be open for all our customers as soon as we can get it open," the manager said.
Restaurant owners in the Elmwood Village said it's a huge loss to the area but believe Louie's will bounce back quick.
The owner of Acropolis exclaimed, "No matter how small that place is, it's like a destination spot on that block and it's going to definitely hurt that block for awhile. It's a loss for the Elmwood Village but I can't see it too long, being closed."
"We've been here 20 years, we'll be here 20 more," the manager expressed.

Comments about Guidecraft Pirate Treasure Chest:
This toy chest is AWESOME!!! It's very heavy and sturdy and has wheels which allow for easy movement. I have a one year old and she can get her toys into and out of it easily. The hings allows the lid to stay in place to whatever height it's opened to, so there's no worry over smashed fingers, heads, etc.

Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., sent a video message to the rally promising to fight for new legislation to protect the rights of 110,000 active and retired miners, including 35,000 in West Virginia.
"We must hold Peabody, Arch and Patriot to the promises they have made," Rockefeller said.
Janine Orf, Patriot's vice president for investor relations based in St. Louis, stated Monday: "Patriot is not proposing to eliminate health care for UMWA retirees. Rather, our proposal allows for meaningful health-care coverage for union retirees at a level that Patriot can afford."
Patriot is proposing the creation of a "voluntary employees' beneficiary association trust that would be administered by the UMWA or the UMWA Health and Retirement Funds."
The trust would receive funds from Patriot through "a significant ownership stake in the reorganized company," profit-sharing of up to $300 million and an initial cash donation of $15 million, according to Orf.
Voc Svec, Peabody Coal's senior vice president of investor relations and corporate communications, released a statement Monday denying any financial complicity with Patriot Coal.
Manchin said, "I have been to many rallies in the Civic Center, but I have never seen an overflow crowd like this."
Manchin criticized Patriot and Peabody. "I have told them, 'You can't make wrong right.' We are not going to let this happen .... We have sacrificed too much."
The state Senate and House of Delegates have passed resolutions calling Patriot Coal to meet its legal commitment to provide pension and health benefits to miners.
"This is an attack on all American workers who have retired," Secretary of State Natalie Tennant said at Monday's rally. "We can't allow these fraudulent transactions to take place."
Rahall said promises made in UMWA contracts "must be kept. Those who are responsible will be held responsible under our legislation. ... It will be an uphill battle, especially in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives."
During his speech, Trumka said, "The eyes of America are on us when we stand up against Wall Street cheats for the dignity of our workers."
Patriot, Trumka said, "stands for everything that is wrong in America today. It is against every American value .... You can't game the American system anymore. We won't let you do it anymore."

On another note: My H's first day back, and the OW starts whining about how no one remembered her birthday in the office, and then asks if my H had had lunch yet!! Funny thing though; I'd told him to be aware of "fishing", that thing AP do to try to weasel their way back in. He now tells me any and all instances where she starts fishing, whether it's for compliments, pity, or any kind of attention. As for the lunch comment, after she asked him if he'd had lunch yet, her stomach growled really loudly and he replied "Well I guess that means you haven't eaten yet. Better go do that." And walked away from her.
XWH died Dec. 2010
I totally understand how those who's WS still works together with the OP can feel.
That said, tonight he ticked me off. For whatever reason (oh, yeah, someone is on vacation who makes out scheduling with the FOW, so my H took it away from her completely so he didn't have to work closely with her, as she wanted) he said the he "thinks he has it harder, because he has to see her every day and be reminded of his mistake". I disagree: after all, I was the one CHEATED ON. I guess we agree to disagree. More or less.
Thank you. I hope as time marches on he gets that WTF feeling, he has told me several times he had wanted to end it sooner but had no idea how to do it. He has admitted to thinking about her as in how is she doing? He says not every day, but, I know he feels "badly" for her and can I understand how difficult it was to tell her to her face he made a mistake. It has been about 6 weeks that he ended it with her. Today I feel a little better, they have about 5 days where their paths won't cross. I had found some letters from her from when the A was new, I read them out loud to him, of course at the time he only heard the ILY and the sex is great, while I was reading them he could hear the calculation and the insults to me in them. Then I told him about the phone calls she made months ago to me, I was so mad I did, I had no intention of telling him, but, maybe it was a good thing. I was trying so hard to be the bigger person, but, maybe he will look at her now and realize the feeling "badly" should be all about me.
To all those who WSs have Monday-Friday jobs, happy sucky Monday!
This is the thing that gets me. Does he think, given the fact that she knew me and my kids, and that I was the one who got her the job there, that she is basically a good person who made the wrong decision. Or does he see her for the whore she is. Knowing us makes it worse in my book. And when confronted she was defiant.
She's trash as far as I'm concerned. Absolute trash. I can't bear the thought of him thinking she's someone who made a bad decision...again and again with video and pictures to go along with it.
I hate this. I just continue to endure...calling out on Jesus when I can't take it!
"If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose..consider me gone."

What's this Busch Gardens you speak of? Is it a new pavilion in Epcot or something?
Is anyone planning a trip to Busch Gardens Williamsburg this summer? They are offering vacationers up to 20% package deals for Busch Gardens, Colonial Williamsburg and Water Country USA this summer! It is great to be able to experience all that Williamsburg has to offer with this deal - I am working with them right now, so if you have any questions about it, let me know! I went to Busch Gardens last Friday and had so much fun - the park has so much to offer and is a great summer getaway spot!
What's this Busch Gardens you speak of? Is it a new pavilion in Epcot or something?
Busch Gardens is a park in Williamsburg, VA. There are roller coasters, shows and animal attractions there that are fun and exciting. The Busch Gardens in Williamsburg is Europe themed, so like Epcot, there are different countries offering great food and entertainment. There are also Summer Nights concerts that are included in the park admission. Basically, Busch Gardens is a fun park that offers a lot of fun and entertainment. Busch Gardens Williamsburg - Home
I've never been before, but I heard it is a beautiful park. I'll check it out someday :P
It is beautiful! It is a great park for the family or for just going with friends, there is so much to do! The food and entertainment are great and the rides are so much fun! Also, when walking around there are beautiful animals! I loved watching them. I hope you get there someday soon! It is a great experience! If you have any questions about planning a trip to Busch Gardens Williamsburg, I would be happy to help you out!
Busch Gardens is nice because it does have an "Epcot with rides" feel. The shows are pretty good too. I grew up in VA so I've been probably 20+ times. It's no Disney, but it's the best non-Disney "themed" park I've ever been in. Hope it will exist now that parent company Anheuser Busch has been sold.

Hi, My name is Petey and I'm going to explain what an Udder Tug is. What is an Udder Tug? It's a dog toy made from recycled rubber liners used in machines to milk real cows. Contact with all those cows leaves an irresistible cow-smell that us dogs udderly love! We call it "Eau de Bovine"! We carefully inspect each tug in the Quality Control Department. We only send the tug maker the ones that are perfectly "seasoned" at the farm. Don't be fooled by fresh-from-the-factory moo-tugs you may see. Those tugs don't have the magic essence that us dogs love and they don't support rescue. AND...Just in case you're wondering . . . most people find "eau de bovine" to be a little odd, but not offensive. (All Udder Tugs are run through a disinfecting dishwasher).
Angie loves the Otis Utter Tug
We get into a really good tug a war with the Otis and it holds up really well. I always win.
Frankie likes to try to sneak up and steal the Pocket Tug since it is perfect for his size.
The pocket tug comes with a handle which I removed to allow him supervised playtime, since he is still a big chewer.
Try an Udder Tug for your dog today! 15 Styles to choose from.
Durability If used as an interactive toy (one you and your dog play with together), your tug will last many many months. But, like any other toy, if you let your dog uses it as a chew toy, it will eventually be destroyed - but, he'll have a blast doing it.
Choosing the correct Udder Tug for your pet.
Step1 - Let Petey help you select the perfect Udder Tug for your dog.
Click on your size dog. Large Dogs - Border Colies & Larger Small to Medium Dogs - Terriers Xtra Small - Toy Dogs
Step 2 - Choose which rescue to support

This thread really should be removed, we don't allow warez on this forum - redistributing an apple OS without permission is warez.
With information from awkwardtv about partitioning, and building a linux-based USB memory stick that can boot the ATV then all you really need is the Apple TV Recovery partition - from an ATV that shipped with 1.0 - you can use that to bootstrap your way back to a working system. This is available if you hunt around on sites we are not allowed to link to.
I understand your situation and am sorry to hear this. You are going to have to look elsewhere though.

Lee Strasberg (born Israel Strassberg; November 17, 1901 – February 17, 1982) was an American actor, director and acting teacher.[1] He cofounded, with directors Harold Clurman and Cheryl Crawford, the Group Theatre in 1931, which was hailed as "America's first true theatrical collective".[2] In 1951, he became director of the non-profit Actors Studio, in New York City, considered "the nation's most prestigious acting school".[3] In 1969, Strasberg founded the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City and in Hollywood to teach the work he pioneered.
He is considered the "father of method acting in America," according to author Mel Gussow, and from the 1920s until his death in 1982 "he revolutionized the art of acting by having a profound influence on performance in American theater and movies".[4] From his base in New York, he trained several generations of theatre and film's most illustrious talents, including Anne Bancroft, Dustin Hoffman, Montgomery Clift, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Julie Harris, Paul Newman, Ellen Burstyn, Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and director Elia Kazan.[4]
Former student Elia Kazan directed James Dean in East of Eden (1955), for which Kazan and Dean were nominated for Academy Awards. As a student, Dean wrote that Actors Studio was "the greatest school of the theater [and] the best thing that can happen to an actor".[5] Playwright Tennessee Williams, writer of A Streetcar Named Desire, said of Strasberg's actors, "They act from the inside out. They communicate emotions they really feel. They give you a sense of life." Directors like Sidney Lumet, a former student, have intentionally used actors skilled in Strasberg's "Method".[6]
Kazan, in his autobiography, wrote, "He carried with him the aura of a prophet, a magician, a witch doctor, a psychoanalyst, and a feared father of a Jewish home.... [H]e was the force that held the thirty-odd members of the theatre together, and made them 'permanent.'"[7] :61 Today, Ellen Burstyn, Al Pacino, and Harvey Keitel lead this nonprofit studio dedicated to the development of actors, playwrights, and directors. As an actor, Strasberg is probably best known for his role as gangster Hyman Roth in The Godfather Part II (1974), which earned him a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. His personal papers, including photos, are archived at the Library of Congress.
Early years[edit]
Lee Strasberg was born Israel Strassberg in Budaniv in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire (now in Ukraine) to Jewish parents, Baruch Meyer Strassberg and his wife, Ida (born Chaia), née Diner, and was the youngest of three sons. His father emigrated to New York while his family remained in their home village with an uncle, a rabbinical teacher. His father, who worked as a presser in the garment industry, sent first for his eldest son and his daughter. Finally, enough money was saved to bring over his wife and his two remaining sons. In 1909, the family was reunited on Manhattan's Lower East Side, where they lived until the early twenties. Young Strasberg took refuge in voracious reading and the companionship of his older brother, Zalmon, whose death in the influenza epidemic of 1918 was so traumatic for the young Strasberg that, despite being a straight-A student, he dropped out of high school.[8]
A relative introduced him to the theater by giving him a small part in a Yiddish-language production being performed by the Progressive Drama Club. He later joined the Chrystie Street Settlement House's drama club. Philip Loeb, casting director of the Theater Guild, sensed that Strasberg could act, although he was not yet thinking of a full-time acting career, and was still working as a shipping clerk and bookkeeper for a wig company. When he was 23 years old he enrolled in the Clare Tree Major School of the Theater. He became a naturalized United States citizen on January 16, 1939 in New York City at the New York Southern District Court.[citation needed]
Life-shaping revelation[edit]
Kazan biographer Richard Schickel described Strasberg's first experiences to the "art" of acting:
He dropped out of high school, worked in a shop that made hairpieces, drifted into the theater via a settlement house company and ... had his life-shaping revelation when Stanislavski brought his Moscow Art Theatre to the United States in 1923. He had seen good acting before, of course, but never an ensemble like this with actors completely surrendering their egos to the work.... [H]e observed, first of all, that all the actors, whether they were playing leads or small parts, worked with the same commitment and intensity. No actors idled about posing and preening (or thinking about where they might dine after the performance). More important, every actor seemed to project some sort of unspoken, yet palpable, inner life for his or her character. This was acting of a sort that one rarely saw on the American stage ... [w]here there was little stress on the psychology of the characters or their interactions.... Strasberg was galvanized. He knew that his own future as an actor – he was a slight and unhandsome man – was limited. But he soon perceived that as a theoretician and teacher of this new 'system' it might become a major force in American theater.[9]
Strasberg eventually left the Clare Tree Major School to study with students of Stanislavski – Maria Ouspenskaya and Richard Boleslavsky – at the American Laboratory Theater. In 1925, Strasberg had his first professional appearance in Processional, a play produced by the Theater Guild.[10]
According to Schickel:
What Strasberg... took away from the Actor's Lab was a belief that just as an actor could be prepared physically for his work with dance, movement and fencing classes, he could be mentally prepared by resort to analogous mental exercises. They worked on relaxation as well as concentration. They worked with nonexistent objects that helped prepare them for the exploration of equally ephemeral emotions. They learned to use "affective memory", as Strasberg called the most controversial aspect of his teaching – summoning emotions from their own lives to illuminate their stage roles.... Strasberg believed he could codify this system, a necessary precursor to teaching it to anyone who wanted to learn it... [H]e became a director more preoccupied with getting his actors to work in the "correct" way than he was in shaping the overall presentation.[9]
Acting director and teacher[edit]
Group Theater[edit]
He gained a reputation with the Theater Guild of New York and helped form the Group Theater in New York in 1931.[11] There he created a technique which became known as "the Method" or "method acting." His teaching style owed much to the Russian director, Stanislavsky, whose book, An Actor Prepares, dealt with the psychology of interpretation in acting. He began by directing, but his time was gradually taken up by the training of actors. Called "America's first true theatrical collective," the Lab immediately offered a few tuition-free scholarships for its three-year program to "promising students".[12]
Publishers Weekly wrote "The Group Theatre... [w]ith its self-defined mission to reconnect theater to the world of ideas and actions, staged plays that confronted social and moral issues... [w]ith members Harold Clurman, Lee Strasberg, Stella and Luther Adler, Clifford Odets, Elia Kazan and an ill-assorted band of idealistic actors living hand to mouth are seen welded in a collective of creativity that was also a tangle of jealousies, love affairs and explosive feuds."[13] Playwright Arthur Miller said "the Group Theatre was unique and probably will never be repeated. For a while it was literally the voice of Depression America". Co-founder Harold Clurman, in describing what Strasberg brought to the Group Theater, wrote:
Lee Strasberg is one of the few artists among American theater directors. He is the director of introverted feeling, of strong emotion curbed by ascetic control, sentiment of great intensity muted by delicacy, pride, fear, shame. The effect he produces is a classic hush, tense and tragic, a constant conflict so held in check that a kind of beautiful spareness results. The roots are clearly in the intimate experience of a complex psychology, an acute awareness of human contradiction and suffering.[4]
Strasberg, Kazan, Clurman, and others with the Group Theater spent summers at Pine Brook Country Club located in the countryside of Nichols, Connecticut.[14][15]
Actors Studio[edit]
In 1947, Elia Kazan, Robert Lewis, and Cheryl Crawford, also members of the Group Theatre, started the Actors Studio as a non-profit workshop for professional and aspiring actors to concentrate on their craft away from the pressures of the commercial theatre.[11] Strasberg assumed leadership of the studio in 1951 as its artistic director. "As a teacher and acting theorist, he revolutionized American actor training and engaged such remarkable performers as Kim Hunter, Marilyn Monroe, Julie Harris, Paul Newman, Geraldine Page, Ellen Burstyn, and Al Pacino." Since its inception the Studio has been a nonprofit educational corporation chartered by the state of New York, and has been supported entirely by contributions and benefits.... We have here the possibility of creating a kind of theatre that would be a shining medal for our country", Strasberg said in 1959. UCLA acting teacher Robert Hethmon writes, "The Actors Studio is a refuge. Its privacy is guarded ferociously against the casual intruder, the seeker of curiousities, and the exploiter... [T]he Studio helps actors to meet the enemy within... and contributes greatly to Strasberg's utterly pragmatic views on training the actor and solving his problems ... [and] is kept deliberately modest in its circumstances, its essence being the private room where Lee Strasberg and some talented actors can work."
Strasberg wrote: "At the studio, we do not sit around and feed each other's egos. People are shocked how severe we are on each other." [4] Admission to the Actors Studio was usually by audition with more than a thousand actors auditioning each year and the directors usually conferring membership on only five or six each year. "The Studio was, and is sui generis", said Elia Kazan, proudly. Beginning in a small, private way, with a strictly off-limits-to-outsiders policy, the Studio quickly earned a high reputation in theatre circles. "It became the place to be, the forum where all the most promising and unconventional young actors were being cultivated by sharp young directors..."[16] Actors who have worked at the studio include Julie Harris, Paul Newman, Joanne Woodward, Geraldine Page, Maureen Stapleton, Anne Bancroft, Dustin Hoffman, Patricia Neal, Rod Steiger, Mildred Dunnock, Eva Marie Saint, Eli Wallach, Anne Jackson, Ben Gazzara, Sidney Poitier, Karl Malden, Gene Wilder, Shelley Winters, Dennis Hopper and Sally Field.[3][4]
Movie historian James Lipton writes that the Actors Studio became "one of the most prestigious institutions in the world" as a result of its desire to set a higher "standard" in acting.[3] The founders, including Strasberg, demanded total commitment and extreme talent from aspiring students. Jack Nicholson auditioned five times before he was accepted; Dustin Hoffman, six times, and Harvey Keitel, eleven times. After each rejection, a candidate had to wait as long as a year to try again. Martin Landau and Steve McQueen were the only two students admitted one year, out of two thousand candidates who auditioned.[3]
- Al Pacino
- "The Actors Studio meant so much to me in my life. Lee Strasberg hasn't been given the credit he deserves. Brando doesn't give Lee any credit ... Next to Charlie (Charles Laughton), it sort of launched me. It really did. That was a remarkable turning point in my life. It was directly responsible for getting me to quit all those jobs and just stay acting."[17]
- Marlon Brando
- Movie stars spawned by Strasberg's Actors Studio were of a new type which is often labeled the "rebel hero", wrote Pamela Wojcik. Historian Sam Staggs writes that "Marlon Brando was the hot, sleek engine on the Actors Studio express", and called him "[the] embodiment of Method acting ",[18] but Brando was trained primarily by Stella Adler, a former member of the Group Theatre who had a falling out with Strasberg over his interpretations of Stanislavsky's ideas." He based his acting technique on the Method, once stating, "[I]t made me a real actor. The idea is you learn to use everything that happened in your life and you learn to use it in creating the character you're working on. You learn to dig into your unconscious and make use of every experience you ever had."[4]
In Brando's autobiography, Songs My Mother Taught Me, the actor claimed he learned nothing from Strasberg: "After I had some success, Lee Strasberg tried to take credit for teaching me how to act. He never taught me anything. He would have claimed credit for the sun and the moon if he believed he could get away with it. He tried to project himself as an acting oracle and guru. Some people worshiped him, but I never knew why. I sometimes went to the Actors Studio on Saturday mornings because Elia Kazan was teaching, and there were usually a lot of good-looking girls, but Strasberg never taught me acting. Stella did – and later Kazan."[19]
- James Dean
According to James Dean biographer W. Bast, "Proud of this accomplishment, Dean referred to the studio in a 1952 letter, when he was 21 years old, to his family as 'The greatest school of the theater. It houses great people like Marlon Brando, Julie Harris, Arthur Kennedy, Mildred Dunnock ... [V]ery few get into it.... It is the best thing that can happen to an actor. I am one of the youngest to belong.'"[5]
- Marilyn Monroe
Film author Maurice Zolotow wrote: "Between The Seven Year Itch and Some Like it Hot only four years elapsed, but her world had changed. She had become one of the most celebrated personalities in the world. She had divorced Joe Di Maggio. She had married Arthur Miller. She had become a disciple of Lee Strasberg. She was seriously studying acting. She was reading good books."[20]
- Tennessee Williams
Tennessee Williams' plays have been populated by graduates of the studio, where he felt that "studio actors had a more intense and honest style of acting". He wrote, "They act from the inside out. They communicate emotions they really feel. They give you a sense of life." [4] Williams was a co-founder of the group and a key member of its playwright's wing, and later wrote A Streetcar Named Desire, Brando's greatest early role.[21]
- Jane Fonda
Jane Fonda recalled that at the age of five, she and her brother, actor Peter Fonda, acted out Western stories similar to those her father, Henry Fonda, played in the movies. She attended Vassar College and went to Paris for two years to study art. Upon returning, she met Lee Strasberg and the meeting changed the course of her life, Fonda saying, "I went to the Actors Studio and Lee Strasberg told me I had talent. Real talent. It was the first time that anyone, except my father – who had to say so – told me I was good. At anything. It was a turning point in my life. I went to bed thinking about acting. I woke up thinking about acting. It was like the roof had come off my life!"[22]
Teaching methods and philosophy[edit]
In describing his teaching philosophy, Strasberg wrote, "The two areas of discovery that were of primary importance in my work at the Actors Studio and in my private classes were improvisation and affective memory. It is finally by using these techniques that the actor can express the appropriate emotions demanded of the character".[23] Strasberg demanded great discipline of his actors as well as great depths of psychological truthfulness. He once explained his approach in this way:
The human being who acts is the human being who lives. That is a terrifying circumstance. Essentially the actor acts a fiction, a dream; in life the stimuli to which we respond are always real. The actor must constantly respond to stimuli that are imaginary. And yet this must happen not only just as it happens in life, but actually more fully and more expressively. Although the actor can do things in life quite easily, when he has to do the same thing on the stage under fictitious conditions he has difficulty because he is not equipped as a human being merely to playact at imitating life. He must somehow believe. He must somehow be able to convince himself of the rightness of what he is doing in order to do things fully on the stage.
According to film critic/author Mel Gussow, Strasberg required that an actor, when preparing for a role, delve not only into the character's life in the play, but also, "[F]ar more importantly, into the character's life before the curtain rises. In rehearsal, the character's prehistory, perhaps going back to childhood, is discussed and even acted out. The play became the climax of the character's existence."[4]
Elia Kazan as student[edit]
In Elia Kazan's autobiography, the Academy Award-winning director wrote about his earliest memories of Strasberg as teacher:
He carried with him the aura of a prophet, a magician, a witch doctor, a psychoanalyst, and a feared father of a Jewish home. He was the center of the camp's activities that summer, the core of the vortex. Everything in camp revolved around him. Preparing to direct the play that was to open the coming season, as he had the three plays of the season before, he would also give the basic instruction in acting, laying down the principles of the art by which the Group worked, the guides to their artistic training. He was the force that held the thirty-odd members of the theatre together, made them 'permanent'. He did this not only by his superior knowledge but by the threat of his anger... [H]e enjoyed his eminence just as the admiral would. Actors are as self-favoring as the rest of humanity, and perhaps the only way they could be held together to do their work properly was by the threat of an authority they respected. And feared. No one questioned his dominance – he spoke holy writ – his leading role in that summer's activities, and his right to all power. To win his favor became everyone's goal. His explosions of temper maintained the discipline of this camp of high-strung people. I came to believe that without their fear of this man, the Group would fly apart, everyone going in different directions instead of to where he was pointing.... I was afraid of him too. Even as I admired him. Lee was making an artistic revolution and knew it. An organization such as the Group – then in its second year, which is to say still beginning, still being shaped – lives only by the will of a fanatic and the drive with which he propels his vision. He has to be unswerving, uncompromising, and unadjustable. Lee knew this. He'd studied other revolutions, political and artistic. He knew what was needed, and he was fired up by his mission and its importance.[7]:59
Classroom settings[edit]
Kazan described his classes:
At his classes in the technique of acting, Lee laid down the rules, supervised the first exercises. These were largely concerned with the actor's arousing his inner temperament. The essential and rather simple technique, which has since then been complicated by teachers of acting who seek to make the Method more recondite for their commercial advantage, consists of recalling the circumstances, physical and personal, surrounding an intensely emotional experience in the actor's past. It is the same as when we accidentally hear a tune we may have heard at a stormy or an ecstatic moment in our lives, and find, to our surprise, that we are reexperiencing the emotion we felt then, feeling ecstasy again or rage and the impulse to kill. The actor becomes aware that he has emotional resources; that he can awaken, by this self-stimulation, a great number of very intense feelings; and that these emotions are the materials of his art.... Lee taught his actors to launch their work on every scene by taking a minute to remember the details surrounding the emotional experience in their lives that would correspond to the emotion of the scene they were about to play. 'Take a minute!' became the watchword of that summer, the phrase heard most often, just as this particular kind of inner concentration became the trademark of Lee's own work when he directed a production. His actors often appeared to be in a state of self-hypnosis.
James Dean[edit]
In 1955, Strasberg student James Dean died in a sports-car accident, at age 24. Strasberg, during a regular lecture shortly after this accident, discussed Dean. The following are excerpts from a transcription of the recorded lecture:
(In the middle of his lecture on another topic) To hell with it! I hadn't planned to say this, because I don't know how I'll behave when I say it; I don't think it will bother me. But I saw Jimmy Dean in Giant the other night, and I must say that – (he weeps.) You see, that's what I was afraid of. (A long pause.) When I got in the cab, I cried.... [W]hat I cried at was the waste, the waste.... If there is anything in the theatre to which I respond more than anything else – maybe I'm getting old, or maybe I'm getting sentimental – it is the waste in the theatre, the talent that gets up and the work that goes into getting it up and getting it where it should be. And then when it gets there, what the hell happens with it? The senseless destruction, the senseless waste, the hopping about from one thing to the next, the waste of the talent, the waste of your lives, the strange kind of behavior that not just Jimmy had, you see, but that a lot of you here have and a lot of other actors have that are going through exactly the same thing.... As soon as you grow up as actors, as soon as you reach a certain place, there it goes, the drunkenness and the rest of it, as if, now that you've really made it, the incentive goes, and something happens which to me is just terrifying. I don't know what to do.... The only answer possibly is that we somehow here find a way, a means, an organization, a plan which should really contribute to the theatre, so that there should not only be the constant stimulus to your individual development, which I think we have provided, but also that once your individual development is established, it should then actually contribute to the theatre, rather than to an accidental succession of good, bad, or indifferent things. But I am very, very scared that despite how strongly I feel, or despite how stimulated you become, nothing will be done....and we will just continue to get so caught up that in a strange way we do not really live our lives.... [To] me that is the future of the Studio, that a unified body of people should somehow be connected with a tangible, consistent, and continuous effort. That is the dream I have always had. That is what got me into theatre in the first place. That was the thing that got me involved in The Actors Studio... [a]nd now it becomes time to think a little bit more about our responsibility for that individual talent. ... I'm stuck. I don't know. And this is really the problem of the Studio.
On Marilyn Monroe[edit]
In 1962, Marilyn Monroe died at age 36. Strasberg reportedly once claimed that of all his actor students with whom he had worked, she was the one who stood out above the rest, second only to Marlon Brando. At the time of her death, she was at the height of her career. In 1999 she was ranked the sixth greatest female star of all time by the American Film Institute. Strasberg gave the eulogy at her funeral.[24][25]
For us, Marilyn was a devoted and loyal friend – a colleague constantly reaching for perfection. We shared her pain and difficulties, and some of her joys. She was a member of our family.... It is difficult to accept the fact that her zest for life has been ended by this dreadful accident. Despite the heights and brilliance she had attained on the screen, she was planning for the future. She was looking forward to participating in the many exciting things. In her eyes, and in mine, her career was just beginning.... She had a luminous quality. A combination of wistfulness, radiance, and yearning that set her apart and made everyone wish to be part of it – to share in the childish naivete which was at once so shy and yet so vibrant.
Personal life[edit]
His first marriage was to Nora Krecaun in 1926 until her death three years later in 1929. In 1934, he married actress and drama coach Paula Miller (1909–1966) until her death from cancer in 1966. They were the parents of actress Susan Strasberg (1938–1999) and acting teacher John Strasberg (b. 1941). His third wife was the former Anna Mizrahi (b. April 16, 1939) and the mother of his two youngest children, Adam Lee Strasberg and David Lee Israel Strasberg.
Death and commemoration[edit]
On February 17, 1982, Lee Strasberg suffered a fatal heart attack in New York City, aged 80.[4][26] With him at his death at the hospital were his third wife, Anna, and their two sons. He was interred at Westchester Hills Cemetery in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York. A day before his unexpected death, he was officially notified that he had been elected to the American Theatre Hall of Fame. His last public appearance was on February 14, 1982 at Night of 100 Stars in the Radio City Music Hall, a benefit for the Actors Fund. Along with Al Pacino and Robert De Niro, he danced in the chorus line with the Rockettes.[4]
Actress Ellen Burstyn recalled that evening:
Late in the evening, I wandered into the greenroom and saw Lee sitting next to Anna, watching the taping on the monitor. I sat next to him and we chatted a little. Lee wasn't one for small talk, so I didn't stay long. But before I got up, I said, 'Lee, I've been asked to run for president of Actors Equity.' He reached over and patted me on the back, 'That's wonderful, dahling. Congratulations.' Those were the last words he ever said to me.... Two days later, early in the morning, I was still asleep when the door to my bedroom opened. I woke up and saw my friend and assistant, Katherine Cortez, enter the room and walk toward me.... 'We just got a call. Lee Strasberg died.' No, no, no, I wailed, over and over. 'I'm not ready', and pulled the covers over my head. I had told myself that I must be prepared for this, but I was not prepared. What was I to do now? Who would I work for when I was preparing for a role? Who would I go to when I was in trouble?.... His memorial service was held at the Shubert Theater where A Chorus Line was playing. Lee's coffin was brought down the aisle and placed center stage. Everybody in the theater world came – actors, writers, directors, producers, and most, if not all, his students. He was a giant of the theater and was deeply mourned. Those of us who had the great good fortune to be fertilized and quickened by his genius would feel the loss of him for the rest of our lives.[27]
In an 80th birthday interview, he said that he was looking forward to his next 20 years in the theater. According to friends, he was healthy until the day he died. "It was so unexpected", Al Pacino said. "What stood out was how youthful he was. He never seemed as old as his years. He was an inspiration." Actress Jane Fonda said after hearing of his death, "I'm not sure I even would have become an actress were it not for him. He will be missed, but he leaves behind a great legacy."
"Whether directly influenced by Strasberg or not", wrote acting author Pamela Wojcik, "the new male stars all to some degree or other adapted Method techniques to support their identification as rebels... He recreates romance as a drama of male neuroticism and also invests his characterization 'with an unprecedented aura of verisimilitude'."[28] Acting teacher and author Alison Hodge explains: "Seemingly spontaneous, intuitive, brooding, 'private', lit with potent vibrations from an inner life of conflict and contradiction, their work exemplified the style of heightened naturalism which (whether Brando agrees or not) Lee Strasberg devoted his life to exploring and promoting."[29]
Pamela Wojcik adds:
Because of their tendency to substitute their personal feelings for those of the characters they were playing, Actors Studio performers were well suited to become Hollywood stars.... In short, Lee Strasberg transformed a socialistic, egalitarian theory of acting into a celebrity-making machine.... It does not matter who 'invented' Marlon Brando or how regularly or faithfully he, Dean, or Clift attended the Studio or studied the Method at the feet of Lee Strasberg. In their signature roles – the most influential performances in the history of American films – these three performers revealed new kinds of body language and new ways of delivering dialogue. In the pauses between words, in the language 'spoken' by their eyes and faces, they gave psychological realism an unprecedented charge. Verbally inarticulate, they were eloquent 'speakers' of emotion. Far less protective of their masculinity than earlier film actors, they enacted emotionally wounded and vulnerable outsiders struggling for self-understanding, and their work shimmered with a mercurial neuroticism... [T]he Method-trained performers in films of the fifties added an enhanced verbal and gesture naturalism and a more vivid inner life.[30]
In 2012, Strasberg's family donated his library of personal papers to the Library of Congress. The papers include 240 boxes containing correspondence, rehearsal notes, photographs, theatrical drawings and posters, sketches of stage designs and more.[31]
Actors Studio West[edit]
In 1966, Strasberg established Actors Studio West in Los Angeles. In 1969, he founded the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York and Los Angeles.[32] Ellen Burstyn, Al Pacino, and Harvey Keitel lead this nonprofit studio dedicated to the development of actors, playwrights, and directors.
In 1974, at the suggestion of his former student Al Pacino, Strasberg acted in a key supporting role alongside Pacino in Godfather II and again in ...And Justice for All (1979).[33]
Popular culture[edit]
Strasberg, his wife Paula, his daughter Susan and his son John, all appear as characters in Robert Brustein's 1998 play Nobody Dies on Friday, which one critic called a "scathing portrait of Strasberg" but one which "can by no means be dismissed as a simple act of character assassination." Brustein, a critic, director and producer, had previously made public his dislike of The Method as a philosophy of acting. The play was produced by Brustein's American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts and was later presented in Singapore.[34]
