This page is based on the LTAD.ca website, the Irish LTPD, the RFU LTAD Booklet and our implementation for the Dutch Rugby Union: Meerjaren Opleidingsplan Rugby (MOR). You can download related pdf documents on the Free Download section of my website.
Players in this category are approximately 5 - 10 years old.
LTPD quote: [The FUNdamental stage has to be well structured and fun! Participation in as many sports as possible is encouraged - if possible three or four times per week. This is where we develop the overall motor skills. Most learning activities are best promoted by playing. This theme does not just apply to modified games but also to reduced exercises and drill activities. Specific techniques and corrections can be integrated throughout the activity while still maintaining maximum participation and enjoyment]
This will also ensure that players receive a positive and motivating experience, remember experiencing individual success drives further learning!
The Rugby Guide
We call the coach for this development phase the Rugby Guide. He recognizes that children are not small adults. The LTPD Definition: the Rugby Guide facilitates the needs and capacities of younger players, providing the environment for players to explore in a safe and exciting way. Corrections and guidance should be subtle and simple, dealing with issues in a broad rather than detailed perspective.
The Rugby Guide is involved in the next activities:
- KSS 2.1: Prepare for and delivering training sessions for his team
- KSS 2.2: Managing the team at games & tournaments
- Make rugby safe: injury prevention
I have set up lots of pages to help the Rugby Guide with these tasks. Also you will find a whole archive of documents to help you on your way in a practical manner.
FUNdamentals and the Rugby Guide
Children in this age are very egoistic. You want to get them to play together? Only possible is a very special way. French rugby has developed a nice model that split children into three categories: those who always want to ball and go forward, those who are always near and around the ball and those waiting for the ball to come to them. By categorizing them in this way you understand how play can develop.
Most importantly: let them discover space! Get the ball and run into space, even if this is in our understanding running away from your support. As a National Under 18 coach I found that a lot of my players had little understanding of space, it took considerable time to develop it.
LTPD Rugby Guide, Coaching Course
Finally, I have set up a special coaching course for The Rugby Guide alone, it takes you five workshops to become one. A Self Study DVD and a Rugby Guide Coaching Manual are part of this course. Offering more information and giving you the confidence to succesfully work with youngsters. IRB Level I is a nice one-day intro but forget IRB Level II, yes, you learn about rugby it does nothing to help you to become the Rugby Guide. IRB Level I and II do not address the specific differences in children and adults. And you are still left with questions how to make a plan for the season, what your tactical and technical goals are. Strange when you come to think of it, now we have a development model for our players, the development model of the coach does not reflect this.....

This is a really nice article hitting on all interesting aspects of the ancestral health movement and/or the paleo-primal way of life: "Why eating like we did 20,000 years ago may be the way of the future."
Part of the problem is that virtually everything we thought we knew about eating is wrong; the current health crisis is in no small part caused by widespread and pervasive food confusion – and much of driven and reinforced by the modern food industry. As counterintuitive as it might seem, we now know that saturated fats are good and that salt has been unfairly vilified. It's becoming apparent that whole grains are extremely unhealthy, and that sugar is far, far worse than we previously thought, a conclusion that has led some experts to essentially describe it as poison.
A nice companion to this article is this fantastic TEDx talk from Stephan Guyenet, a 16-minute summary of "The American Diet," and how the US government enabled industrial food complex has radically changed the American diet via the subsidization and institutionalization of commercially prepared foods while demonizing real foods that, just two generations ago, were understood to be healthy. He discusses how the departure from historical norms in terms of diet has lead to an exponential increase in a whole new set of disease epidemics. He also makes the comment that industrial foods are "extensively engineered foods meant to maximize palatability and maximize the likelihood of repeat purchase while minimizing purchase costs." In summary, Guyenet notes the following in his short talk:
– Consumption trends toward commercially prepared food.
– The decline of butter and lard in favor of margarine, shortening, and refined seed oils.
– Fat consumption trends moving toward cheap polyunsaturated fats, due to the refined seed oils in the modern American diet.
– The decreased quality of breast milk composition.
– The rise of sugar consumption from beverages.
– The traditional American diet was simple, homemade, had minimally refined ingredients, and it required effort to produce.
– The modern American diet contains hyper-palatable items, is commercially engineered, is composed of refined ingredients, is high in added sugar and fats (from seed oils), and it requires minimal effort to prepare and consume.4:01 pm on August 12, 2012 Email Karen De Coster

Future House, Glitch | Robin Hagglund – Flashback (Original Mix)
Posted by JT on November 3, 2014
Whose ready for some futuristic funk because Robin Hagglund just got his Daft Punk on with his original, "Flashback." He's been quite busy preparing some big progressive releases on Blue Soho Recordings, and even had the privilege of being featured on Above & Beyond's Group Therapy Radio (episode 89) earlier this year. His tracks are hitting thousands of plays regularly and every release puts you on the edge – you never know what to expect with this guy. Grab some headphones, lay back, and let this take you away.
Dubstep, Glitch, Trap | CloZee – Falcon EP
Posted by BP on June 18, 2014
This EP is too cool to pass up. CloZee is always kilin' it with glitch madness, and "Falcon" is nothing short of awesome. This track has a bit more of a dub feel to it than I'm used to from CloZee, but it came out awesome. The saucy melody is unbeatable, and the progression from slower dub into a glitch breakdown is clearly a display of CloZee's skills. This EP also includes a bonus trap remix from Dropout Marsh that is also top notch work. Dropout Marsh's version of "Falcon" is nostalgic and full of melancholy vibes. This EP is free to grab right off the player, so show your support and download!
Glitch | CloZee – Gotta Get Some Sleep
Posted by BP on January 6, 2014
I can't remember if I've ever posted a glitch track, but what better day than my birthday to try something new? I couldn't be happier I found it today since, as some of you know, Chicago is dangerously cold right now and we could use a distraction. "Gotta Get Some Sleep" by CloZee is fun, bouncy, and has a great mood to it. The horns and bass are funky and fresh. I've been following CloZee for a few years now, and she always impresses me. The slow section around 3:10 is a cool surprise so look out for that! This song is free on Bandcamp along with a lot of other sweet songs on the "Whompadelic Trip" album.

Drum & Bass, Glitch | Black Sun Empire & Noisia – Hideous (Audeka Remix)
Posted by Mach on December 12, 2013
The Black Sun Empire & Noisia "Hideous" remix competition is over. I would like to give a huge congrats to Haywyre for winning the competition with his unbelievable glitchy, jazzed out remix. I was sad to see that the trio Audeka didn't place, but Haywyre is more than deserving himself. Audeka has given out the download to their neuro-hop gem so not all is lost. Happy downloading.

Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Glitch, House | Joe Ford – Culture EP
Posted by Mach on December 9, 2013
Joe Ford is one of the hottest names in bass music right now and the majority of the population doesn't even know it yet. After his last successful release this year, "The Mission" EP, it comes to no surprise that he has yet again dominated with his "Culture" EP. Joe Ford kicks off this fresh EP with the title track "Culture". This song is a behemoth, it is like Joe Ford thought to himself "Build up? Nah, I'm going to rape my fans in the face with my opening track on this release". The waves of bass on this drop are ridiculous, I feel like my ears are being beaten to death by the lightsaber mach 1. "Distilled" tones the EP down a little… just a little. The track brings in the ever growing neuro-hop styling, bouncing you through some great kicks with the addition of that lovely flavor of reese-bass. As a gamer, this is the kind of track I'd want to be blasting my through hordes of noobs with.
I can see "Immobilise" being the theme of a fast traveling Spaceship being chased by another which is firing upon it, weaving in and out of asteroids with the occasional collision. If Michael Bay's taste in music was worth anyone's time, he would consider "Immobilise" for a space-flight scene in the next "Transformers" movie. Now, imagine a universe where Lex Luther kills Superman, Cell obliterates the Saiyans, and the Avengers perish at the hands of Ultron. Unopposed, "Villain" would be the track played as these cocky evil doers decimated our planet. If villains actually won, this song would be perfect, but considering they never do, we will just have to sit back and bump out to this badass tune with our imaginations.
Last, but not least we see the return of Asa on yet another EP ender with Inspected. "Real Talk" isn't the kind of track we have been seeing throughout Joe Ford's EP, it is the end of the story we have been listening to. "Culture" started us with the intense game changer that set the premise, "Distilled" the attempted fight through the initial bass threat, "Immobilise" the fight to the death, and "Villain" the defeat and utter destruction of what is left. Last, is the calm after the storm, with those left alive wondering what else is to come, the "Real Talk". This is one of the best works I have heard all year, Joe Ford just set the bar.
Chill, Drum & Bass, Glitch | Kursa – Björk
Posted by Mach on December 5, 2013
Kursa has been a big up and coming name in my book, his blended productions based around Drum & Bass have been an absolute delight to indulge on. Feels like it has been some time since he has given away a free track, so today I bring you an incredible glitched out piece of art sampling the ever famous Björk. The kick and snare continue the same throughout this, but the progression of the deep bass and vocals is where the true prize of this song lie. Just kick back and let the waves take you away.

Drum & Bass, Glitch | Upscale Recordings – The Collective EP (Ft. Evoke, Frequent, Masq, Audeka, Paurini, & Spectric)
Posted by Mach on December 1, 2013
Damn, the sub-label of Adapted Records, Upscale Recordings with the goal of sharing strictly Neuro-Hop (Blend of Glitch-Hop and Neuro-Funk AKA Drum & Bass), drops this dirty EP of some of the top up and comers in the newly rising twisted genre. The EP kicks off with an original from Evoke. Carrying the title of the EP, "The Collective" thumps in smoothly, only to progress into that deliciously glitched out funk. Next, Spectric remixes Evoke's original, adding a few more layers to the mix of the glitch to take you on deep stroll of bass. A commoner on FNT with his Neuro/Trap blends, Masq teams up with Frequent. Their collaboration "Firescape" starts out with a calm, slightly glitchy melodic euphoria, leaving you bumping out at a deep multi-bass layered drop. A larger name and personal favorite of Neuro-hop, come Audeka with a funky remix of Dino Safari's Breakspeed. This remix has to be my favorite on the EP, I love how deep the bass on this track is and how it maintains the funk with the chill throughout it. Something that KOAN Sound and Asa introduced to the majority of the population on their most recent collaboration EP. Last, but certainly not least, Paurini introduces himself with a chilling original, "Lumberjack". Paurini is a new name for me, and after hearing this original, I'm blown away. I suspect this is just the beginning of his epic Neuro journey. Neuro-Hop is a genre on the rise, while Dubstep introduces new artists by the minute and becomes more and more repetitive by the minute. "The Collective" EP is a must have, and count on Upscale recordings to introduce countless more great tracks in the future.

What are the potential skin cancer pictures?
- Q: What are the potential skin cancer pictures?
- A: Doing self-exams for skin cancer is important to ensure any potential cancer is detected early. Early treatment increases the chance the cancer can be cured. It is recommended to do self exams once a month. Things to look for include checking any moles on the body. A mole that may be basal cell cancer is usually red or pink, flat or slightly raised and is usually shiny. Basal cell cancer is most common on face, neck, arms and hands. Squamous cell cancer can be a red smooth patch or crusty bumps on the skin. Moles that indicate melanoma can be multi-colored, asymmetrical, have an uneven boarder, and may bleed easily. Any mole that is bigger than a pencil eraser or any new or changing mole may be potentially cancerous. The following link provides some pictures of cancerous moles. http://cancer.about.com/od/skincancermelanoma/ig/Skin-Cancer-Photo-Gallery. The American Cancer Society Web site can also provide more information. http://www.cancer.org/. It is important to have your skin checked yearly by a dermatologist or other health care provider or any time you notice a concerning mole or lesion. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. Laura Cable, PharmD

You are here: Home › Microsoft Word Shortcuts Questions › Mail Merge Edit Recipient List
by Karen
(State College, PA)
I use the mail merge feature a lot. When going in to edit the recipient list, is there a quick way to delete all of the previous information, or do you have to delete each recipient individually?
If you created the list using Word 2007 and you do not have Access installed, you have to delete the records one at a time.
If you have Access 2007 installed, you can edit the source file table and delete all of the records at one time. But do not change the structure of the table within Access 2007 or it will break the connection with your mail merge file.
To delete records, open Access 2007, then follow these steps:
Go back to Word 2007 to add new recipients to the list and complete your mail merge.
If you do not want to permanently delete the recipient list records, there is a quick way to deselect all of the recipients within the Mail Merge Recipients dialog box. All you need to do is uncheck the box at the top of the list.
After deselecting all records, you have to manually select recipients for the mail merge.
If you have a huge list and need to send mailings to specific contacts, it is easier to use the filter than to deselect all then have to select recipients one-by-one.
Instead of deselecting, at the bottom of the Edit Recipient List window, click Filter.
You can create very advanced filters in this screen using the And/Or operators, and selecting specific merge fields.
You can get more information about mail merge and other advanced word processing techniques from the book, Special Edition Using Microsoft Office Word 2007, which is available in the Word Tips Store.

Many people are shocked to find that natural gas costs are typically much higher in winter months. Gas usage jumps as it gets colder outside because your natural gas furnace or boiler must work longer and harder to maintain warmer temperatures inside. Remember that if your thermostat is set to turn on the gas below a certain temperature (say 68 or 65), your furnace will run whenever it is cold--whether you are home or not! Check your thermostat setting when leaving on vacation; there's nothing worse than a high gas bill for keeping your home warm for no one...Lower your natural gas usage while staying comfortable by taking these actions---many of which are low or no cost.

Kansas Bill Aims to Begin the State Income Tax Phase Out
The Senate Committee on Assessment and Taxation responded to the call by Governor Brownback in his State of the State Address to phase out the states income tax, with the filing of SB 78. Governor Brownback expressed in his address the need to reform the Sunflower states income tax rates in order to compete with neighboring states, especially Texas which has no state income tax. When speaking about his proposed plan, Governor Brownback stated, "What this is is a plan, a strategy that gets us to job growth,"

Good deal… however, property tax is the one that needs to be ruled unconstitutional.+5
Income taxes are immoral.
But I believe Kansas has many other taxes, sufficient to fleece the productive and assuage the parasitic.+1
As much as we hate the idea of a VAT, a sales tax is the fairest– everybody pays the same.
Problem is, the PTB would never consider using it to REPLACE an existing tax, but would certainly ADD it to our tax burden given half a chance.0
Call me Mr. Nitpicker but Texas is not a neighboring state of Kansas.+1
@ Billy- True. But doesn't Tulsa have more trial lawyers per capita than any other American city? Hardly a bastion of conservatism.0
VAT tax is a great way to extend the tax base. Ever buy products made in Great Brittan? Yes.
The Grown & Parliament thank you.+1
Indiana is following the same path, thanks to our new conservative Gov Mike Pence and our republican supermajority in the state legislation.0
Kansas might be the geographical center of the lower 48, but it's still gonna suck even with no state tax.0

Arrow Exterminators encourages a new resolution for homeowners - a fresh, healthier life and home by preparing for a pest-free 2010
It's the New Year, which means it is time for a fresh start. It is also time to make New Year's resolutions. One resolution that should be on everyone's list is to take simple steps towards rodent control to keep a clean, pest free home in 2010.
Winter is a prime season for rodent infestations. In 2009, 24% of homeowners reported having some type of mice infestation, according to the National Pest Management Association. Rodents can pose health risks and cause serious structural damage to homes.
Roof rats in particular are known for chewing through walls and wires which can lead to fires and other structural damage. In addition, these same creatures that were infamous for spreading the bubonic plague many decades ago can still spread disease through their urine. Roof rats get their name from living in the upper part of buildings near the roof. They are also found under, in and around structures.
Mice are the other most popular rodents to enter homes during the wintertime. They breed very rapidly, producing up to a dozen mice every three weeks. They also can spread their droppings an estimated 70 times per day. These droppings can spread bacteria and viruses such as Hantavirus.
"Rodents are very serious problem for households, especially in the winter time," said Shay Jones Runion, Arrow's Pest Expert. "Not only do they cause damage to homes, they can easily spread disease. It is very important for all homeowners to be aware of this problem and take the necessary steps to prevent it."
Arrow Exterminators suggests taking these steps to prevent rodents from entering homes this winter:
- Inspect wires, insulation and walls for any signs of gnaw marks, which may indicate an infestation.
- Install gutters to channel water away from your home.
- Seal cracks and holes, including areas where utilities and pipes enter the home.
- Keep tree branches, shrubbery and ground covering well trimmed and away from the house
Arrow protects homes from rodents with the STEPS® Total Protection System, an industry-leading process that utilizes Integrated Pest Management. STEPS includes a full inspection of home and property to pinpoint pest control issues; identification of not only the pest, but the true cause of the problem; and treatment in the most environmentally responsible way to alleviate current issues and help prevent any future recurrence.

Crews begin tearing down popular Lisbon restaurant
Updated On: Mar 14 2013 01:11:26 PM EDT
Demolition crews Tuesday began tearing down the Lisbon landmark restaurant Graziano's Casa Mia.
The restaurant closed in March 2012, after more than 40 years in business.
Spectators lined the sidewalk across the street to watch as demolition crews worked to raze the building.
Lisbon officials said the property has been purchased by a local company. No information is available on what the new owners plan to do with the site, which is located at the corner of Route 196 and Village Street.

Cryptic's Marvel Universe Online may have been canned, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to suit up and chill with Spider-man and gang online. As long as you don't mind hanging with kids that is. Gazillion Entertainment is currently developing an MMO based on Marvel Super Hero Squad, a Cartoon Network cartoon for the lil ones. Just because it's for kids, doesn't mean it won't be fun either. If anything, the trailer's pretty fun, if surprisingly bizarre. If anything, it's got superheroes fighting over toast.
And while you're at it, enjoy a press release:
SAN MATEO, Calif. – May 13th — Gazillion Entertainment, a leading developer, publisher and operator of massively multiplayer online (MMO) games for wide audiences, today unveiled the first glimpse of the eagerly anticipated Super Hero Squad Online. For the first time, players worldwide will have the chance to be their favorite Super Heroes in a living online world. Based on the Super Hero Squad intellectual property that has spawned a wildly popular action figure line and smash-hit animated series, the game draws upon the 5,000-plus iconic heroes and villains in the Marvel Universe. Super Hero Squad Online offers players the chance to team up with friends as they engage in exhilarating combat, show off their decked-out squad in the game's social spaces, collect thousands of items, and explore interactive environments based on classic and new Marvel worlds.
Developed by Gazillion studio The Amazing Society, Super Hero Squad Online allows gamers to unleash their imagination and lead their handpicked squad of Super Heroes on unforgettable adventures. Players will blast bad guys with Iron Man's repulsors, slice through waves of robots with Wolverine's claws and smash villains with Hulk's huge fists. Master the talents and amazing powers of Spider-Man, Iron Man, War Machine, Invisible Woman and dozens more Marvel heroes. Discover new locations from the hit Super Hero Squad TV show, including the sewers of Villainville and the streets of Super Hero City, while also exploring classic Marvel landmarks such as the Daily Bugle, Baxter Building and Stark Tower.
Super Hero Squad Online also offers a fully customizable headquarters where players can show off their collection of trophies and design their own unique Super Hero hangout. Players can even invite friends over to their headquarters to watch as their squads interact with the environments they've created.
Super Hero Squad Online is the first game released under the 10-year exclusive publishing agreement signed between Gazillion and Marvel Entertainment. "Super Hero Squad Online perfectly captures the unique mix of action, humor and customization that make the franchise a massive hit with fans of all ages. The team at The Amazing Society is creating a Super Hero Squad MMO that does justice to this extremely popular IP," said Ira Rubenstein, Executive Vice President of Marvel's Digital Media Group. "Gazillion is proving that its capabilities in MMO development, operations and publishing make them the ideal partner to deliver a breakthrough Marvel online experience."
"Everyone who has wanted to be Silver Surfer, Wolverine, Captain America or any of the amazing Marvel heroes and villains will find the game has something for them," stated Jason Robar, Vice President and Studio Manager for The Amazing Society.
Jay Minn, Creative Director for Super Hero Squad Online, says: "In Super Hero Squad Online you are not a nameless sidekick! You'll swing through Super Hero City as Spider-Man or zap the bad guys with Cyclops' optic blasts in high-voltage missions. Or you can just hang out in a high-energy, immersive world filled with other Marvel fans!"
Additional details on Super Hero Squad Online's features, gameplay and release date will be announced at a later time. For more information about Super Hero Squad Online and to sign up for future product updates, please visit www.shsonline.com.
I actually kinda wanted to check out the show (there's some nice talent I recognize on the cast list) but I don't really like how they're all super deformed :P
the trailer is kinda weird (what is it, yugioh?) but it's pretty fun and I like wolverine's I love canada apron haha

Curated by Cleopatra's, Brooklyn
New York artist Chris Verene presents a new installation of his ongoing performance cycle, "The Self-Esteem Salon," a three-day live action artwork entitled, The Self-Esteem Salon with Jessica Grable, The Self-Preservation Series. Verene will team up with long time friend and performance artist and sculptor, Jessica Grable, to create the largest version of the performance ever staged for Socrates Sculpture Park. The two are working together to build and grow an ensemble of plant life and costumes that emphasize the human need for self-preservation, including a custom topiary garden made from cultivated invasive plant species. A feature length documentary film is underway about the work.
Several of Verene's Self-Esteem staff members began working on this piece as teenagers, and have grown to adulthood while participating in the work. The experience must be seen to be believed. Some compare it to going to a church, others say it was like a family reunion, still others say it was like going to a very modest orgy. All descriptions are true, as the performers carefully structure the client's experience around what they believe he or she needs to have happen at that moment in the client's life.
The Self-Esteem Salon's past celebrity attendees include: John Waters, Matthew Modine, Harmony Korine, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick, Baby Jane Holzer, and Amy Arbus (daughter of Diane Arbus), who have all have been involved in one or more performance cycles. The Whitney Museum of Art hosted the piece during its Biennial in 2000, as has Christie's Auction House, and New York's notorious Chelsea Hotel in New York for a week in 2005.
Throughout the history of the project documentary photographs and video capture the 'Model Search' conducted in conjunction with the performance. Verene's team of "Group Facilitators" consisting of young teenagers and adults respond to advertisements placed by models in search of work, and the images made with them are some of the projects most powerful. Also featured are collaborative works that Verene did with artist Christian Holstad.
The Re Institute is located at 1395 Boston Corners Rd, Millerton NY 12546
5 miles north of the village of Millerton, on Route 63 (a.k.a. Boston Corners Road). Route 63 runs parallel to Highway 22. Number 1395 is 1/8 mile south of White House Crossing Road.
Postmasters Gallery premieres the new photography book by Chris Verene with a performative group discussion led by the artist.
CHRIS VERENE, New York-based artist, will host a group discussion and performance entitled, "CHRIS VERENE: TOWN HALL MEETING," expanding on his new documentary photography book from Twin Palms Publishers, "Family," which chronicles twenty-six years of his family and their struggling community of Galesburg, Illinois. Postmasters Gallery is the site for the premiere of Chris Verene's new artwork and new monograph, in conjunction with a group exhibition entitled, "Mirror, Mirror," running from April 2- May 8, 2010.
Adopting the popular political campaign method used by presidential candidates, Chris Verene will lead a "Town Hall" discussion about the troubles of America as seen through the ups and downs of Galesburg, Illinois, home to three generations of the artist's family and subject of Verene's two major monographs. Verene began this project at just fifteen years old in 1984.
The little-known town of Galesburg has twice been cited by President Obama as an example of the worst financially troubled areas in the United States, once in his in his career-launching speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, and again in his recent State of the Union address. Verene's cousins are the some of the very people whom Obama specified in his speech: "...the workers I met in Galesburg, Illinois, who are losing their union jobs at the Maytag plant that's moving to Mexico, and now they're having to compete with their own children for jobs that pay 7 bucks an hour."
Verene's new book opens with his cousin Candi's divorce; both husband and wife were fired in the Maytag factory closing. Theirs is not the only marriage torn apart by the economic struggles of the whole nation. Verene's cousin Candi was made famous when her wedding picture appeared on the cover of Verene's first book ten years ago. Notably, a full-scale traveling museum exhibition of Verene's work will begin in Fall 2010, just an hour from Galesburg in the Quad Cities at the Figge Museum of Art. A growing list of other museums and galleries showing Verene's work in 2010 includes the Tate Modern, London, and The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
The Town Hall Meeting will be live-streamed to the Internet. Access to the live feed will be listed at www.chrisverene.com on April 29th, the day of the event.
"Family" will be available in stores in the United States in May 2010, from Twin Palms Publishers, Santa Fe, New Mexico. http://www.twinpalms.com/
Information: Postmasters Gallery: 459 West 19th Street New York, NY 10011
April 2 - May 8, 2010
Postmasters Gallery presents two exhibitions:
Gallery 1
Opening reception for both shows: Friday, April 2, 6-8 pm
Mirror, Mirror
The portrait has been a staple of the art going back to the Egyptians and the sculptural bust of Nefertiti. Then 3300 or so years later came Andy and Alice and Chuck and Cindy and Annie. What's next? The mind wanders and wonders about something new and relevant to the present moment that the genre can deliver. "Mirror, Mirror" is a group exhibition of nine artists engaged with contemporary portraiture in all media. The works in the show present a variety of approaches from realistic, exquisitely rendered paintings of the artist's friends (Jenny Morgan) and traditional portraits of the members of American Communist Party (Yevgeniy Fiks) to bitingly satirical drawings (William Powhida), unsettling video self portraits (Kate Gilmore), photographs of three generations of artist's family in rural midwest (Chris Verene), video reenactments of people on Facebook who share the same name (Ursula Endlicher), portraits painted directly on top of the people they represent and then photographed to look like a painting (Alexa Meade), and metaphysical psychedelic portraits of people's souls (Jason Robert Bell). Tamas Banovich, will contribute a work involving Chatroulette.
The Library of Babel / In and Out of Place
176 Zabludowicz Collection are pleased to present an exhibition of works from the Zabludowicz Collection guest curated by Anna-Catharina Gebbers.
As part of 176 Zabludowicz Collection's curatorial residency, Anna-Catharina Gebbers was given complete freedom to create an exhibition from the over 2,000 works in the Zabludowicz Collection. The result is a dramatic contrast to former presentations of works from the Collection.
With over 200 works exhibited, The Library of Babel / In and Out of Place will be the largest ever showcase of works from the Zabludowicz Collection. Anna-Catharina Gebbers invites us into a salon-style exhibition, a format which emphasises the deliberately overwhelming amount of contemporary works of art including painting, photography, sculpture and video.
Inspired by Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges' short story 'The Library of Babel' (1941) where inhabitants of an infinite library search for the absolute interpretation of the information around them, The Library of Babel / In and Out of Place encourages the visitor to embark on a similar quest for meaning.
While Anna-Catharina Gebbers generously empowers the visitors to draw their own conclusions from the Collection, seemingly incongruous works belie carefully disguised threads of meaning waiting to be uncovered and interpreted.
Anna-Catharina Gebbers on the exhibition:
'The Library of Babel / In and Out of Place questions my role as it places every visitor in the role of curator; the sheer number of works forces the visitor to chose which works will receive attention. I am interested in how these decisions are made.'
The exhibition will be accompanied by an extensive public programme where invited professionals and visitors alike are offered the chance to become Guides, conducing tours for the public. Discussing how and why our attention and perception is guided and exposing different ways of creating meaning within the exhibition
There will be an accompanying series of lectures and panel discussions with experts including scientists and theorists from backgrounds as wide-ranging as neurology, psychology, sociology, philosophy, linguistics and literature; plus an illustrated publication with specially commissioned texts designed by Joff + Ollie.
Anna-Catharina Gebbers is a curator and writer based in Berlin. Since 2004 she has curated some 50 exhibitions with over 300 artists. Gebbers also acts as editor for several cultural magazines and is the author of books about artists including Thomas Scheibitz, Paloma Varga Weisz and Thomas Schütte. Her non-profit project space ANNA-CATHARINA GEBBERS | BIBLIOTHEKSWOHNUNG in Berlin presents transdisciplinary collaborations with artists, curators, cultural activists and other institutions.
New Monograph by Chris Verene, "Family"
12 x 14 Inches
"Verene walks right into the lives of his folks, showing you how they are, without any embarrassment on either side. Their togetherness is taken for granted so openly that the viewer feels at each moment like one of them, a member of the clan. Verene's color [is] tender, warm and sensual, though stops well short of being glamorous . . . flooding them all with a strange, sweet romance. These pictures convey his bittersweet fondness for a smaller world in which he grew up but no longer shares, but which has lessons to teach him about the inroads of ageing, disability and other difficulties. People do what they can to help each other and themselves, all from 'leaking boats.' Meanwhile, the dark room and the night bring tidings of their isolation. Many viewers are familiar with visits back home in this mood, which Verene renders luminous and fatal."
"Love, Love, Love"
Chris Verene Exhibition
Deitch Projects, Creative Time and Paper Magazine are pleased to announce the third annual Art Parade. The parade will take place on Saturday September 8, at 4PM. The route will begin on Houston and follow West Broadway, ending on Grand Street. Following the success of the past two Art Parades, artists, performers and designers are again being invited to create floats, placards, portable sculptures, kites, performances and street spectacles. Chris Verene and friends will be participating in the parade.
Group Show
June 2 - July 7, 2007
537 A West 23rd St. New York, NY

June Bride
525 W. 25th St., New York, NY
Yossi Milo Gallery is pleased to announce June Bride, a summer group show on view from Thursday, June 7, through Friday, August 17, 2007, with an opening reception on Thursday, June 7, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.
June Bride provides an uncommon look at a common practice: the marriage ceremony. In this assembly of unconventional wedding photographs, the idea of the bride varies as radically as do cultural differences, religious traditions, family dynamics, and modes of dress. Brides appear in various guises, from Diane Arbus' bride shrinking from her groom's overeager kiss to Nikki S. Lee's impersonation of a Jewish bride, from a bride captured in mid-air, as in Rosemary Laing's bulletproofglass series, to an earnest, middle-American bride in a family photo by Chris Verene.
The photographers of these varied works utilize and, at times, reformulate the image of the bride as a symbol of transition, ritual and traditional femininity. For example, in Arthur Tress' Stephen Brecht, Bride and Groom, New York, 1970, the actor plays the role of both bride and groom in the artist's exploration of gender and identity. In the photograph of his 1995 performance piece, To Marry a Mule, Chinese artist Wang Jin places a pink-painted and lavishly-adorned mule as a stand-in for his own "bride-to-be". There are larger narratives and diverse intentions behind these photographs, providing a glimpse into the ritual of marriage and allowing us to reflect on how we have come to view, define and transform the wedding ceremony.
Artists featured in the exhibition include Diane Arbus, Tracey Baran, Valérie Belin, Lee Friedlander, Robert Gober, Nan Goldin, Wang Jin, Seydou Ke?ta, Rosemary Laing, Nikki S. Lee, Loretta Lux, Robert Mapplethorpe, Karl O. Orud, Bill Owens, August Sander, Lise Sarfati, Rudolf Schwarzkogler, Malick Sidibé, Alec Soth, Arthur Tress, Chris Verene and Akram Zaatari.
March 2-April 29, 2007
Gescheidle is pleased to announce a new exhibition of Chris Verene's photography series, "GALESBURG". At age sixteen in 1986, the artist began an ongoing documentary of his family's rural Illinois hometown, Galesburg. This show coincides with several current museum survey exhibitions and catalogs which anthologize chapters of Verene's twenty year project: "Prairie Jews: The Jewish Identity Project," at The Jewish Museum, "Shoot The Family," curated by Ralph Rugoff, director of Hayward National Gallery of London, and forthcoming from Phaidon Press, "Theater of the Face," an anthology of documentary portraiture by curator Max Kozloff.
The show includes many works released as recently as the past six months reflecting the troubles Galesburg has been facing as economic hardship has gripped the community. Verene follows the lives of his family and friends as they face a depressed wartime America. Verene's unstaged color documentary photography is largely appreciated for its honesty, intense color and composition. The artist is committed to sincerely recording the powerful hope and spirit in his family's community. Verene's work has been praised for making the intimacy and humanity between the artist and his subjects function as the primary purpose of the work.
The project follows in the historical trail of such documentarians as Diane Arbus, Nan Goldin, and William Eggleston. Verene's works feature three generations of his family and the surrounding community, as seen in bright flash and sunlight in a variety of mundane and plainspoken interiors, trailer parks, and nursing homes. The work goes beyond documentation, as Verene spends countless days and years in deep relationships that form the basis for the artwork. This personal touch is enhanced through handwritten captions in black oil paint, signifying important facts in the larger story.
Verene first gained significant recognition in 2000 appearing in The Whitney Biennial and through the publication of an extensive catalog by Twin Palms Press. Chris Verene is simultaneously known as a musician and an artist, currently co-leading the Latin Rock group Cordero (Chicago's Bloodshot Records), founding member of The Rock*A*Teens (Merge Records), and founding member of the legendary D.Q.E., a Chicago/Atlanta music group first recorded by Chicago's Steve Albini in 1990.
Verene's work is in the collection of The Whitney Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Jewish Museum, The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Walker Art Center, The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, among others. In 2001, Chris Verene was the recipient of the first Pollock/Krasner award given for photography. Verene's work has been featured in ARTFORUM, Art In America, ArtNews, The New York Times, The Village Voice, Vanity Fair, Parkett, Harper's, Vogue, and The New Yorker.

These artists use their relatives and partners as subjects, revealing that family matters are never simply personal, but inevitably encompass broader historical, social, and economic considerations.
Shoot the Family is a traveling exhibition organized and circulated by Independent Curators International (iCI), New York and curated by Ralph Rugoff. The exhibition, tour and publication are made possible, in part, by a grant from The Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation, with additional support from the iCI Exhibition Partners and the iCI independents.
Gallery hours: Mon.-Fri., 10:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m.; Sat., 11:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.

Self Esteem will feature photographs by Mr. Verene that examine the role of photographed image and its effect on an individual's self esteem. Works in this exhibit will be primarily drawn from Verene's "Self Esteem Salons" and from early work. Verene's "Salons" are a performance artwork wherein he builds a temporary sanctuary to be used in helping strangers and clients to make a sincere and lasting change in their lives. Many of these images have never been previously exhibited. Mr. Verene will be in attendance at the opening to sign copies of books and catalogs.
Mr. Verene has appeared in exhibitions world-wide including the
2000 Whitney Biennial. His work can currently be seen in two traveling museum
exhibitions: "The Jewish Identity Project" which made its debut in
2005 at the Jewish Museum in New York City and is currently on view at the Contemporary
Jewish Museum in San Francisco and "Shoot the Family", which originated
at the Cranbrook Museum in Michigan and is currently on view at the Western
Gallery, Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA.

"Jewish Identity Project: New American Photography"
The Contemporary Jewish Museum
121 Steuart Street (between Mission and Howard
October 22, 2006 - February 25, 2007
Members' Preview and Reception:
Organized by The Jewish Museum, New York, this exhibition features thirteen emerging and mid-career artists who were commissioned by the Museum to create ten projects focusing on different Jewish communities in the United States. Through the works of these photographers, the exhibition addresses issues relevant to Jewish and non-Jewish audiences, as it looks at real and constructed boundaries between people. Using Jewish culture as a lens, The Jewish Identity Project examines the hybrid and complex racial, national and cultural identity of contemporary Americans.
"Galesburg" Alona Kagan Gallery
September 14- October 28, 2006
Reception for the artist September 14th, 6-8:30pm
Closing reception and artist talk: October 25th, 5-8:30pm
Alona Kagan Gallery is pleased to announce the highly anticipated continuation of Chris Verene's photography series, "GALESBURG". At age sixteen in 1986, the artist began an ongoing documentary of his family's rural Illinois hometown, Galesburg. This show coincides with current museum survey exhibitions and catalogs which anthologize chapters of Verene's twenty year project:, "Prairie Jews: The Jewish Identity Project," at The Jewish Museum, and "Shoot The Family," with Independent Curators International, currently at The Knoxville Museum of Art. Phiadon Press will publish work in a new History of Portraiture, and The LA Museum of Contemporary Art will publish an artist card.
The new work reflects the troubles Galesburg has been facing as economic hardship has gripped the community. Verene follows the lives of his family and friends as they face a depressed wartime America. Verene's unstaged color documentary photography is largely appreciated for its honesty, intense color and composition. The artist is committed to sincerely recording the powerful hope and spirit in his family's community. Verene shows us the simple, average human stories taking place in the declining American Midwest. Verene's work has been praised for making the intimacy and humanity between the artist and his subjects function as the primary purpose of the work.
The project follows in the historical trail of such documentarians as Diane
Arbus, Nan Goldin, and William Eggleston. Verene's works feature three
generations of his family and the surrounding community, as seen in bright flash
and sunlight in a variety of mundane and plainspoken interiors, trailer parks,
and nursing homes. The work goes beyond documentation, as Verene spends countless
days and years in deep relationships that form the basis for the artwork. This
personal touch is enhanced through handwritten captions in black oil paint,
signifying important facts in the larger story.

I am a creative person by nature. I am constantly thinking of new projects to start (darn Pinterest!). I have found in the past that I get started on a project and halfway through, i move on to another. I think it's pretty common. The problem is, my vision is constantly changing! That is precisely why I got into photography. It encompasses everything I love... meeting new people, taking photographs, being silly, then going home and *quietly* editing/artworking my sessions. I think my biggest challenge with becoming a business owner is knowing that you have to make a living off of your art. I would love to do it for free because I enjoy it that much, but that's not how a business works, ha!
Megan O'Leary Photography & Design is going to incorporate everything artsy. I want to do more than just photography. I want to expand on my artistic talents. In the future i would like to take it a step further and create graphics/cards with the photos that I take. The possibilities are endless. I also plan to create custom frames that are fun and funky to house your images.
Lets have a vision together! I am up for the challenge!
