Paris, France
Charles Ferdinand d'Artois, Duke of Berry (24 January 1778 – 14 February 1820) was the third child and youngest son of the future king, Charles X of France, and his wife, Princess Maria Theresa of Savoy. He was assassinated at the Paris Opera in 1820 by Louis Pierre Louvel, an anti-royal bonapartist. In June 1832, two years after the overthrow of his father, Charles X, his widow, Marie-Caroline de Bourbon-Sicile, duchess de Berry, led a royalist insurrection in the Vendée in a failed attempt to restore their son to the French throne.
Charles Ferdinand d'Artois, Duke of Berry, was born at Versailles. As a son of a fils de France not being heir apparent, he was himself only a petit-fils de France, and thus bore his father's appanage title as surname in emigration. However, during the Restoration, as his father was heir presumptive to the crown, he was allowed the higher rank of a fils de France (used in his marriage contract, his death certificate, etc.). His maternal grandparents were Victor Amadeus III of Sardinia and Maria Antonietta of Spain. She was the youngest daughter of Philip V of Spain and Elisabeth Farnese. Since he was already dead when his father became king, he and his surviving daughter always had "Artois" as surname.
At the French Revolution he left France with his father, then Count of Artois, and served in the émigré army of his cousin, Louis Joseph, Prince of Condé, from 1792 to 1797. As a member of the Conde's emigre army, he fought in the Rhine Campaign of 1796, and achieved particular distinction at the Battle of Emmendingen and the Battle of Schliengen.[1] He afterwards joined the Russian army, and in 1801 took up his residence in England, where he remained for thirteen years. During that time he had a relationship with an Englishwoman, Amy Brown Freeman, whom the 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica described as his wife, but that is highly unlikely.[2]
In 1814, the duke set out for France. His frank, open manners gained him some favour with his countrymen, and Louis XVIII named him commander-in-chief of the army at Paris on the return of Napoleon from Elba. He was, however, unable to retain the loyalty of his troops, and retired to Ghent during the Hundred Days war. On 17 June 1816, following negotiations by the French ambassador, the Duke of Blacas, he married Princess Maria-Carolina of Naples (1798–1870), oldest daughter of then hereditary Prince Francis of Naples.[3]
Three children were born before the duke's death, with one surviving infancy. His daughter, Louise d'Artois, born in 1819, married Charles III of Parma.[3]
On 13 February 1820, the Duke of Berry was stabbed and mortally wounded when leaving the opera house in Paris with his wife, and died the next day. The assassin was a saddler named Louis Pierre Louvel, a bonapartist opposed to the monarchy. Seven months after his death, his wife gave birth to their fourth child, Henri, who received the title of duc de Bordeaux, better known in history as the comte de Chambord,[3][4] and who in the view of Legitimists, was heir to the throne of France.
The Duchess of Berry was compelled to follow Charles X to Holyrood Palace after July 1830, but she resolved to speedily return and make an attempt to secure the throne for her son. From Britain she went to Italy, and in April 1832 she landed near Marseille. Receiving little support, she made her way to royalist supporters residing in the Vendée and Brittany. She succeeded in instigating a brief but abortive insurrection in June 1832, however, her followers were defeated. After remaining hidden for five months in a house in Nantes, she was betrayed to the government in November 1832 and imprisoned in the Chateau of Blaye.[3]
During her incarceration, she gave birth to a daughter, born after a secret marriage contracted with an Italian nobleman, Count Ettore Carlo Lucchesi-Palli, Duke della Grazia (1805–1834). The revelation of this birth at once deprived the duchess of the sympathies of her supporters. She was no longer an object of fear to the French government, which released her in June 1833. [3] She set sail for Sicily, and, joining her husband, lived in retirement, first at Ca' Vendramin Calergi in Venice, then, due to the upheavals Risorgimento, at Brunnsee in Austria until her death in April 1870.
With his wife, the Duke of Berry had four children, of whom only two survive adulthood:
- HRH Louise Élisabeth d'Artois (13 July 1817 – 14 July 1817).
- HRH Louis d'Artois (born and died 13 September 1818).
- HRH Louise Marie Thérèse d'Artois (21 September 1819 – 1 February 1864); married Charles III, Duke of Parma.
- HRH Henri d'Artois, Duke of Bordeaux and Count of Chambord (29 September 1820 – 24 August 1883); married Archduchess Maria Theresa of Austria-Este.
In addition to them, the Duke had several illegitimate offspring:
- With Mary Bullhorn, a Scottish actress:
- Marie de la Boulaye (1807 – ?), married Henri-Louis Bérard. No issue.
- With Amy Brown Freeman (whose daughters are the only illegitimate issue whom Berry recognized, on his deathbed):[3]
- Charlotte Marie Augustine de Bourbon, comtesse d'Issoudun (13 July 1808 – 13 July 1886), married in 1823 to Ferdinand de Faucigny-Lucinge, Prince de Lucinge.
- Louise Marie Charlotte de Bourbon, comtesse de Vierzon (29 December 1809 – 26 December 1891), married in 1827 to Charles de Charette, Baron de la Contrie.
- With Eugénie Virginie Oreille (1795 – 1875):
- Charles Louis Auguste Oreille de Carrière (1815 – 1858), who in turn fathered a son Charles (born in 1842), a lyric artist, married but without issue.
- Ferdinand Oreille de Carrière (10 octobre 1820 – 1876), died unmarried.[5]
- With Marie Sophie de La Roche (1795 – 1883):[6]
- Ferdinand de La Roche (1817 – 1908).
- Charles de La Roche (1820 – 1901).
Three of his sons, the Count of Chambord, Ferdinand Oreille de Carrière and Charles de La Roche, were posthumous.

The presence of GSSG is linked to an excessive amount of glutamate that is released in the brain after a stroke. Glutamate is a neurotransmitter that, in tiny amounts, has important roles in learning and memory. Too much of it triggers a sequence of reactions that lead to the death of brain cells the most damaging effects of a stroke.
This experiment showed for the first time that the loss of MRP1 function impairs the clearance of GSSG, and that MRP1 cells were recruited to the site of the stroke in normal mice, indicating this protein has a protective role in the brain after a stroke.
The researchers searched databases containing genomic data for a microRNA that appeared to have potential to influence production of MRP1. MicroRNAs bind to messenger RNA, which contains the actual set of instructions for building proteins. When that connection is made, however, the microRNA inhibits the building of protein from messenger RNA. So an inverse relationship exists between a microRNA and a protein it controls.
The researchers saw this very relationship in the cell study in which they manipulated the candidate microRNA levels and observed the effects of changing those levels on the presence of the MRP1 protein.
Finally, the researchers compared mice that were treated with TCT supplements or corn oil as a control for 13 weeks before a stroke was induced. The amount of damaged brain tissue was smaller in the mice that received TCT supplementation than in the mice receiving corn oil. In addition, TCT supplementation was associated with a lower level of the candidate microRNA in the damaged brain tissue, as well as an increase in the abundance of MRP1 cells at the stroke site.

Seau, immigration, Arrevalos case and more
As Sanders' term in office came to a close he was inundated with accolades of a job well done, mostly undeserved. I suggest that when he returns from his Italian vacation, that he be sent the bill for the Arrevalos fiasco. – James Caldwell, Serra Mesa
Seeing clouds amid rosy forecast
The AP article "Budget suggests better times ahead" (Jan. 11) makes a very positive statement. It is based on a typical static analysis.
I wonder if the two AP writers are California residents. If they are my hunch is they are in the income category where they will largely benefit at little additional cost.
A dynamic analysis might cast questions about the assumption the forecast "wipes out years of deficits and even includes a modest surplus."
Maybe the projected amount may not be obtainable from the private economy tax producers, already narrowly comprised of higher-income businesses and individuals.
California is completely controlled by Democrat high-spenders that will likely find all kinds of new things to throw money at. Also, In addition to the tendency of draining money from the private economy to depress economic activity, there is increased incentive for producers to leave the state because of the increased taxes and the costly and increased regulations bound to come.
I hope a look back in January of 2014 proves my concerns wrong. – J. Dean Stewart, Pacific Beach
A skeptic's retort
A few days ago I read this in the U-T, a quote from California Gov. Jerry Brown ("Bill seeks to add new paid holiday for state workers," Watchdog, Jan. 9): "You can take this to the bank. We're not going to spend money that we can't afford to spend."
I was a little confused because it was in the news section and not in the comics. – James Morton, Lakeside

Ogden Nash first gathered together an anthology of thirty years of his published works in 1959. In 1973 his daughters gathered more than four hundred of his poems and called it I Wouldn't Have Missed It, a quote from one of his verses. Now more poems have come to light, so his daughters have once again produced The Best of Ogden Nash, the definitive Nash anthology. The poems display the talent of the man whose verse entranced America from the time of the Great Depression until his death in 1971. The Best of Ogden Nash should delight old fans and introduce new readers to a unique talent. CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

Levels that progress forward by themselves at a fixed rate.
Bloopers are squid-like creatures that are usually white. They are usually seen underwater and attack enemies by chasing them and trying to catch them.
Boo is a ghost-enemy in the Mario universe who pursue Mario until he looks in their direction. They earned their reputation for being "shy" this way. Don't turn your back on them!
Distant cousins of the Hammer Bros., the Boomerang Bros. prefer to chuck deadly boomerangs at Mario.
Boss Bass is a giant male Cheep-Cheep who attempts to swallow Mario and Luigi whole.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
Video game bosses are usually the main antagonist, and arch nemesis of the main protagonist. In most cases the end of a game is when the main character defeats the final boss.
The bounce block helps the player bounce back to where they came from. However, they can bounce you the wrong way.
A tough beetle-like creature with a hard outer shell that is immune to fireballs.
Fish that shoot out of the water with great speed in Super Mario Bros. If not jumping through the sky, they can be found in the oceans of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Cobrat is a large serpent that often hides in vases in Sub-Con.
Collectibles are items such as coins, rings, gems, packages etc. that can be gathered, usually for some kind of reward, or sometimes to simply beat a level. Often (almost too often) the source of earning achievements and trophies on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
Palette-swapping are sometimes used to denote the different strengths and abilities of your adversaries.
Crouching is an essential part of many shooters and plastformers, and can be useful to stay under cover and avoiding incoming projectiles
The concept of a helpless female character in desperate need of rescuing by a male protagonist, in most cases from a villain, or from a form of impending doom.
The main line of distinction between victory or failure in video games, death is the process of a biological being ceasing to be alive.
Dry Bones are skeletal Koopa Troopas that have been reanimated through magical means. Their ability to reform after being knocked apart can make them quite troublesome.
A peripheral for the Game Boy Advance that allowed players to scan in cards for extras in various games, or even to play classic NES games.
The 2003 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) took place at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles, California on May 14-16.
When a game lets you grab enemies and throw them as projectiles. Commonly found in platformers, but also sometimes found in over-the-top 3rd person action games.
Falling Debris or other stuff you have to evade.
False Bowsers are henchmen of the Koopa kingdom, magically disguised as their bosses. In later games, there are subtle differences between them and the real Bowser.
A plot device where the story appears to be heading to a conclusion, but in reality there's still more to the story. For example, just when you think you've saved the world, the true final threat reveals itself. Often appears in Japanese RPG and visual novel titles.
Fighter Flies are enemies from the Mario series. They hop back and forth while flapping their wings.
The last boss you face in a game, usually representing the final climax of the game.
Fire Bros. are a rare variety of Hammer Bros. with the unique ability to spit Fireballs.
Flattening is taking something three dimensional, and somehow making it very thin almost two dimensional. It can be used for comedic effect or a character to use it to fight through tight spaces.

The Wizard of Oz is a 1939 American musical fantasy film produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and the most well-known and commercially successful adaptation based on the 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum. The film stars Judy Garland; Terry the dog, billed as Toto; Ray Bolger, Jack Haley, Bert Lahr, Frank Morgan, Billie Burke, Margaret Hamilton, with Charley Grapewin and Clara Blandick, and the Singer Midgets as the Munchkins, with Pat Walshe as leader of the flying monkeys. Notable for its use of Technicolor, fantasy storytelling, musical score and unusual characters, over the years it has become one of the best known of all films and part of American popular culture. It also featured in cinema what may be for the time the most elaborate use of character make-ups and special effects.
Metropolis is a 1927 German expressionist epic science-fiction film directed by Fritz Lang. The film was written by Lang and his wife Thea von Harbou, and starred Brigitte Helm, Gustav Fröhlich, Alfred Abel and Rudolf Klein-Rogge. A silent film, it was produced by Erich Pommer in the Babelsberg Studios by Universum Film A.G.. It is regarded as a pioneer work of science fiction movies, being the first feature length movie of the genre.
Magna Carta is an English charter, originally issued in the year 1215, and reissued later in the 13th century in modified versions that omit certain temporary provisions, including the most direct challenges to the monarch's authority. The charter first passed into law in 1225. The 1297 version, with the long title (originally in Latin) The Great Charter of the Liberties of England, and of the Liberties of the Forest, still remains on the statute books of England and Wales.
The Story of the Kelly Gang is a 1906 Australian film that traces the life of the legendary infamous outlaw and bushranger Ned Kelly (1855–1880). It was written and directed by Charles Tait. The film ran for more than an hour, and at that time was the longest narrative film yet seen in the world. Its approximate reel length was 4,000 feet (1,200 m). It was first shown at the Athenaeum Hall in Collins Street, Melbourne, Australia on 26 December 1906 and in the UK in January 1908.
Los Olvidados (Spanish for "The Forgotten Ones"), known in the U.S. as The Young and the Damned, is a 1950 Mexican film directed by Luis Buñuel.
The Battle of the Somme is a 1916 British documentary and propaganda film, shot by two official cinematographers, Geoffrey Malins and John McDowell. The film depicts the British Army in the preliminary and early days of the battle of the Somme (1 July – 18 November 1916). The film had its première in London on 10 August 1916 and was released generally on 21 August. The film depicts trench warfare, showing marching infantry, artillery firing on German positions, British troops waiting to attack on 1 July, treatment of wounded British and German soldiers, British and German dead and captured German equipment and positions. A scene where British troops crouch in a ditch then "go over the top" was staged for the camera behind the lines.
Neighbours (French title: Voisins) is a 1952 anti-war film by Scottish-Canadian filmmaker Norman McLaren. Produced at the National Film Board of Canada in Montreal, the film uses the technique known as pixilation, an animation technique using live actors as stop-motion objects. McLaren created the soundtrack of the film by scratching the edge of the film, creating various blobs, lines, and triangles which the projector read as sound.

Four Ways to Find Out if Your Customers Are Active With Social Media
For many companies, the conversation has shifted from "why" or "should" we do social media, to "where" and "how" social media should be done.
A major component of answering those questions effectively is understanding in which social outposts your customers are concentrated, because there really is no benefit in beating your customers to the punch. Companies should follow, not lead, their customers across the social web.
At conferences, I'm often asked something along these lines: "My boss thinks none of our customers are on Facebook, but I think they are. What do I do?"
Here are 4 ways to find out where your customers are in social media:
#1: Hire a Spy
Update: Since the publication of this article Flowtown no longer offers these services.
Flowtown and Rapleaf are two of the leaders in the emerging field of social anthropology. It's ingenious and a bit freaky (like Cirque de Soleil).
You provide a list of your customers' email addresses and these services figure out how many (and who) among your customers are on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and niche social networks, what their "likes" are and other important details.
Flowtown is perfect for small- and medium-sized businesses (see my review here). Rapleaf is for larger companies. My friend Kyle Lacy does a lot of consulting in this area, helping organizations with Rapleaf analyses.
#2: Ask
Perhaps the most obvious way of finding out where your customers are hanging out in social media is unfortunately the least utilized. Ask them.
If you have a "Contact Us" form, an online lead generation form, an email newsletter signup or a shopping cart, why are you still only asking for name, address and email address? Add data collection fields for Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn (at minimum).
#3: Email Behavior
Have you added links to your social outposts in your emails? Have you added the ability for email recipients to share content on Twitter, Facebook, Digg and elsewhere? If you send email routinely, you need to integrate email and social immediately.
Most quality email service providers give you the option of easily adding sharing tools, and you can then run a report showing which of your subscribers clicked your Twitter link and/or shared content on Facebook. Presto! Now you know that person is active on those social sites.
#4: Gmail Stalking
Twitter, Facebook and other social outposts have incorporated functionality that allows you to see whether your Gmail contacts are using the services and invite them to connect with you. While this integration is intended for personal use, you can use it for your business, too. Here's how:
- First, create a .csv file from a list of your customers' email addresses (you only need email addresses, not names, mailing address, etc.).
- Next, create a free account on gmail.com specifically for this purpose (you don't want to be doing this on an existing account).
- Third, upload the .csv to your Gmail account.
- Now, go to Twitter and create a new account using your special new Gmail email address. On Step Two "Find Your Friends" of the Twitter signup process, select Gmail. Bam! Twitter automatically reads all of the email addresses of your customers stored in Gmail, allowing you to track the number on Twitter and/or follow them immediately.
- Now, set up a new Facebook account using your new Gmail address. On Step One "Find Friends" of the Facebook signup process, indicate that you have a Gmail account, and follow the simple instructions. Bingo! All of your customers on Facebook are presented to you, and you should be able to become their "friend" with a single click.
I uploaded a list of approximately 2,000 subscribers to my email newsletter, and was able to track down more than 1,000 on Twitter and 500 on Facebook. Total cost? Zero dollars and about 30 minutes.
As the social web becomes more interconnected, understanding how your customers are connected (or connectable) to your brand in social media is a sizable part of the success equation.

|I will be getting this.
Be interesting to see what it sounds like! He just recently produced this album.
|Ooh. Good news! Looking forward to that.

|Ha, that's nuts. Just downloaded it.
Ah thanks for the heads up!
Just downloaded the app. The satellite should be passing me in 50-some minutes.
So most likely the same for most Eu based people. Get in!
I have to say there's a chat option in the app and there's quite a few people complaining they couldn't get it streaming although the satellite was overhead. We'll see how it goes.
Remember when pre-streaming and pre-internet when artists would make some music, record it and then release it on a physical medium & distribute it via a network of stores?
Imagine describing this process to someone back then.
"Yeah so you have this powerful pocket computer which is also a phone. The music is on a satellite circling the earth and is beamed down. When it's overhead, your pocket computer picks up the signal from the satellite and you can listen to the music."
Between this and Wu Tangs recent announcement that they will only create 1 copy of their next album, which they will first have touring around the word's musea and then auction off for millions in order to highlight that music is art it's pretty clear music distribution and consumption has changed massively. Catch up industry dino's!
|Yeah 48 minutes here. Hopefully the bloody music is good after all this space bothering.
|It streams fine for me, sounds good in places but there's too many drum&Bass rhythms for my taste.

Hmmm. It counted down to 01 minutes and then next thing it's 12 hours.
Also toggles between two distances was 16k, 7k before, then 18k, 2k.
Either way .... didn't quite work, as I sort of expected.
I'll check the youtubes.
|Worked for me, listening to it now. Its a bit strange but most of his solo albums are on a first listen.
|I'm up to clinch so far and it sounds a lot more accessible than pbx on first listen. Deffo interesting, i really do love some of his vocal arrangements, the start of sleep is great.

Oh wait, just picked up my phone and there's a notification I can grab ut even though it says 11+ hours until it passes again.
I'll have a listen now!
The first ones up to fanfare I had to somewhat grin and bear it to stop myself from skipping ahead.
Might get better with repeated listening but so far the first few didn't grab me right away.
|I listened and it hasn't left any lasting impression upon me. I respect his desire for creative experimentation but sometimes I wish he would just stick to creating great melodies using his exceptional guitar playing talent.
Will need to check this out.
He produced a rap album lately for the Black Knights called Medieval Chamber which was pretty good.
So how literally do we need to take this "satellite" thing?
I thought it was cool this afternoon when I read it and downloaded the app inbetween a bunch fo shit I had to get done for work.
Driving home afterwards I had a moment to reflect. I'm assuming the app just mimics a satellite path on google maps or earth or whatever and then unlocks it for you when this "satellite" is over our area.
|Was listening to The Empyrean for the first time this morning and I think the last two mins or so of Unreachable is just one long eargasm.
The Empyrean is lovely.
This new album was more palatable on a second listen.
I got round to listening to the album properly last night, and i enjoyed my time with it. It's far more coherent than pbx and as a more consistant sound running through it. It far less prone to random out bursts too.
I really liked Letur-lefr and i think Enclosure will grow on me like that EP too. I found a lot to like on it.

When walking towards a painting by Anoka Faruqee your eyes refuse to settle. Turquoise, formed into an elongated triangular band, is pinched between two golden curves. The turquoise is misbehaving. Instead of sitting still it appears to flex and blend into the yellow. As you get closer the painting changes, and at arm's length another dramatic shift occurs, the previous turquoise and gold bands of color atomizes into narrow, serpentine, overlapping lines with several more colors, no longer just turquoise and gold. Looking across the room your eyes settle on another painting. This square shaped canvas is a warm gray that seems to dance. Upon closer inspection the pleasantly worked surface transforms into a swirling design of forest green and cherry red lines. Faruqee calls this series of paintings the Moiré series, after the illusion with the same name. The history of Modern art is often told as a race towards extremes, but will that be true of 21st century art? Anoka Faruqee's work seems to place less emphasis on 'pureness' than other abstraction. Faruqee's work suggests that we can be more complex, and where artists over the past sixty years searched for the strongest statement, maybe our searches will lead in different, more nuanced directions.

Artist Interview: Jered Sprecher's Hybrid Worl/k/d
Jered Sprecher says something about painting. As Sprecher speaks, just underneath my skin, the blood starts dancing. Pulsing its ruby hips along to a great horn section, a mildly panicked Bossa Nova heartbeat. This is circa 2001, and Jered is a year or two ahead of me at the college we were at, and he was thoughtful about painting. He thought about the surface, and he thought about abstraction. He thought about what painting meant to other people. On the other hand, my education was from the school of immaturity, famous for using the word vomit and bad jokes in poor taste. I learned from him, and began to look seriously at paintings as more than an image. Today, Jered's paintings are even stronger evidence of his thoughtfulness and clarity of vision.
Sprecher's new paintings combine abstraction with imagery. Some of the images are based on variations of a single photograph of three pigeons or doves. When painting, Sprecher worked on some of the pieces with a process of moving from top left to bottom right, the same method a dot matrix printer uses, and other paintings used a more intuitive method of layering paint. The human, the machine, the image, and the abstraction live together in this wor/k/ld.
Jered Sprecher has a solo show, Half Moon Maker, at Steven Zevitas Gallery in Boston. The show is up until May 10th, 2014. All photos courtesy of Steven Zevitas Gallery. Below you can find an interview with Jered about his newest paintings.
The light Is Wiggly In This Shell Game: New Paintings By Melissa Brown
Melissa Brown is a printmaker who has turned her attention towards painting and animation. Her paintings repeat imagery in the way a print might, but also take on the physical quality of paint. This hybridity allows the paintings to have elements that are both familiar and strange. Brown's animation is also a hybrid of print and paint. The animation you are about to click on is set to a mellow carnivalesque tune. Melissa has worked with games, in their various forms, to create her art. She has used the folded paper Fortune Teller we all used in grade school, and all the way up to an all-night performance on how to win the State Lottery in front of a movie screen filled with diagrams. Brown's new animation keeps with this interest in games. It is based on an old street con, the shell game. You can see that animation in the Dinter Project Room.
When I have spoken to Melissa about her work she always starts by telling me something very technical, like something about the lighting, but we eventually talk about how the patterns and spaces in the work make us feel. This new work has a sort of physical effect on me, like a great bass line that comes out of nowhere, and, even though you're in a bad mood, makes you dance with your seat belt on at a red light in your car at an intersection. Brown is in a group show at a Bright Lyons called Freak Furniture Fan Club with two other great printmakers Leif Golberg and Erin Rosenthal.
Candy Coated Crisis: Lisa Alonzo's Confectionary Paintings
Lisa Alonzo's sugary technique obscures a dark symbolic core. The images are beautiful and the technique is divine. In fact, the technique is a refinement of one of the high points of Modern painting, Pointillism, and Alonzo adds another, almost hysterical layer to Seurat's Le Grande Jatte, by combining the beauty of Pointillism's ballet of color with the designer frosting florets of a confectioner. According to the press release from Claire Oliver Gallery, that excess of beauty, when compared with the otherwise violent or mundane subjects, a hand grenade, a gun, a beer can, is a critique aimed at consumer desire. As a painter who has often struggled with acrylic painting, I was really impressed by the freshness of these paintings. You can see Lisa Alonzo's new work at Claire Oliver until April 26th.

Landscapes With Water: Artist Interview With Dan Attoe
Dan Attoe's newest paintings are set against the northwestern Pacific landscape. It is a place where winding streams run into surfing beaches. The sand skinny dips into dark water that is laced with rolling white foam. The foamy tidal beaches are framed by rocky cliffs, and all those rocks, and that moving water, is surrounded by antediluvian forest. The trees in Washington State can make you feel very small because they are preposterously tall. Some varieties grow to be over 200 feet, pushing outside of the boundaries of a normal tree into something that feels supernatural, or maybe übernatürlich. The forest has the fairy tale effect of making you feel very small in comparison. The beaches, rocky cliffs, streams, and over-sized forests in Attoe's paintings create spaces that are reminiscent of David Lynch's television masterpiece Twin Peaks; both literally, because of geographical overlap, and psychologically, because the natural world, by bubbling with life, moving water, and impossible trees, begins to take on symbolic resonance. If you were an explorer on a quest for an enchanted forest, Northern Oregon and southern Washington State are very strong candidates for any enterprising search parties you are leading. When you go you may run into Dan climbing rocks or taking pictures of the moon through his telescope. Dan grew up in the woods, his father was a forest ranger. He is at home there. These paintings seem to take place at dusk, when the sun is just over the horizon. Like that quiet time of evening, there is something quieter in this new group of paintings. The miniature figures in Dan's paintings seem to be dealing with mistakes of love, faulty desires, friendship, and being part of the natural world with its drumbeat of sun and tides.
You can see Dan Attoe's new paintings in his show Landscapes with Water at Peres Projects on Karl-Marx-Allee 82 in Berlin. The show is up from March 1st to April 19th 2014. The photos in this interview are courtesy of Peres Projects.
Studio Visit: The Paintings Of David Hornung
David Hornung makes paintings from both oil and gouache. He paints quiet simple, small houses located in fenced fields, bucolic scenes of nature, solitary women and men, memento mori, snakes and birds, paths and walls. Objects in his paintings seem to be a distillation of universal human experiences with the world and among each other. Some objects are singled out as being important by a kind of twin cloud, the direction of light, or glowing patches of color. The paintings are beautiful executions of color theory, which makes sense because David wrote the book on color theory "Color: A Workshop Approach." His subject matter hovers between observation and the symbolic, and he refers to Philip Guston's Alphabet series with plain respect, and like Guston, David was reluctant to talk about image-based thinking. We walked through Brooklyn on the way get some lunch, and David said that painting is hard to talk about because the ideas come out of working with images, that the process gives painters their ideas, which is a kind of reversal, because for most people who work with ideas – the ideas generate the process.
You can see David Hornung's work at the John Davis Gallery in Hudson NY from May 23rd to June 16th.
Interview: Jered Sprecher Always Lies
Jered Sprecher makes paintings that do not fit neatly into any category. At first they look like geometric abstraction, but then you realize that there is something different about the surface, it's brushy and the edges of the shapes aren't dogmatically hard like other geometric paintings. In his broader body of work there are images peppered in among the abstract elements, but the images are sort of soft pictures with interruptions, like paintings based on a faded calendar that was exposed to too much light in a hallway. Sprecher's paintings seem to accept the modern idea that paintings are things, that paintings are first and foremost flat sculpture. This train of thinking says illusions are a kind of deception, which they are. Modernism goes a little further by hinting that illusions are lies that are also moral defects. This aversion to illusion brought us abstract artists like the evangelical Donald Judd, the graceful openness of Helen Frankenthaler, and the philosophical diagrams of Peter Halley. Enjoying painting as a window into an illusory world is a "mistake" everyone made until the 1940s, when some smart people came along and told us to be careful about it. Modernists say any artwork that hides its true nature is a metaphor for misunderstanding life in a bigger way. Sprecher does not seem to completely buy the modernist talking points, and like a bad political surrogate goes off message on a Sunday talk show, saying "Yes, but… I always lie!"
You can see Sprecher's newest work in his show I Always Lie at Jeff Bailey Gallery in Chelsea until March 23rd. Interview after the jump.
Dan Attoe's World
Dan Attoe makes paintings that slip right pass the guard at our front door and walk into the whirling, clicking abacus of our deep thoughts, that engine room that is us but is also a kind of insect intelligence that lives at top of our spine. Attoe's world reminds me of old Raymond Carver writing about blind drunks, or the uneasy charisma of David Lynch's lady in the radiator and her seductive song. These art works feel real and unreal, drawn from experience in part, but reconstituted by an artist who understands how to tap into something psychological that us makes reflect on our own experience.

Film star Jake Gyllenhaal is making his American stage debut off-Broadway in the Roundabout Theatre Company's production of a play called "If There Is I Haven't Found It Yet". NY1's Roma Torre filed the following review.
For all its many virtues, there's one thing I really don't like about the British import at the Laura Pels Theatre. The title: "If There Is I Haven't Found It Yet" is as forgettable as the performances in this engaging new play are memorable.
Playwright Nick Payne has crafted an intensely nuanced family portrait that reeks of emotional truth. Families can be very messy and Payne captures one family in all its painful and occasionally comic glory. The father George is a scientist preoccupied with global warming. The mom Fiona has her hands full as a teacher with a work-obsessed husband. Fifteen-year-old daughter Anna is overweight and bullied. And George's younger brother Terry is a good-hearted slacker.
There are no villains here. Not much of a plot either. But what keeps the story going are vivid characterizations that come alive in the hands of four outstanding actors.
The production, directed by Michael Longhurst, seems to rival the family dynamics in messiness. There's a pile of furniture upended in the middle of the stage rimmed by a trough of water. Eventually, the entire set is flooded. It's apparently a directorial choice and while it's an obvious symbolic reference connecting global warming to a family that's metaphorically drowning, it's ultimately distracting.
The drama is compelling enough particularly with this cast. Brian F. O'Byrne and Michelle Gomez as loving but flawed parents are sublime. Annie Funke handles teen angst with shattering honesty and Jake Gyllenhaal in only his second stage appearance is extraodinary. Moment to moment this movie star's performance rivals the most seasoned Broadway professionals.
The title is apparently a response to the play's thematic question: Is our way of life worth preserving if we're not prepared to change? I can't answer that but I can say this compassionate and insightful drama, even with some missteps, is a keeper.

AG not helping police: Refusal to inform harms everyone
A state police trooper shoots and kills an unlicensed motorist in the middle of a Manchester neighborhood, and Foster's office repeatedly refuses to identify the officer or inform the public as to his work status.
Two Weare police officers shoot and kill a fleeing suspect in a drug sting operation. Foster's office continues to refuse to identify the officers. The shooting occurred on Aug. 14.
When its top law agency, rather than being open and forthcoming with the people it claims to serve, declines to promptly answer the basic questions in very serious incidents, it promotes doubt, suspicion and distrust. That does a disservice to law enforcement and to the public.
That's a strange twist for those whose motto is to protect and serve.

By allowing big food to self-regulate when it comes to using antibiotics as a growth promoter in animals, the FDA is setting us up for disaster.
Two weeks ago, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it would ban certain off-label uses of cephalosporin antibiotics in animal agriculture, asserting that these uses posed an undue risk of selecting for antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Many of us who follow this issue closely recognized FDA's move for what it was: a distraction from the fundamental need for change. The cephalosporin announcement came just two weeks after FDA refused to restrict the use of two other important antibiotics in food animals. It looked to be a thinly veiled effort to deflect criticism of this refusal.
With the occasional exception, like cephalosporins, FDA has failed for decades to take meaningful action on the misuse of antibiotics in food animal production -- misuse that directly contributes to the selection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and compromises our ability to treat bacterial infections.
In 1900, the three leading causes of death in the United States were pneumonia, tuberculosis, and enteritis -- all infectious diseases. A century later, heart disease, cancer, and stroke -- all chronic, non-infectious diseases -- had replaced these at the top of the list. The shift in leading causes of death from infectious to chronic diseases is partly credited with raising average life expectancy by over 30 years. Much of this increase has been attributed to massive reductions in infectious disease mortality, which disproportionately impacts the young. These shifts have come to be known as an "epidemiologic transition," perhaps the most notable achievement in the modern history of public health.
By the 1980s, however, common bacterial pathogens, including certain strains of Staphylococcus aureus, were increasingly found to be resistant to antibiotics. A particularly pernicious strain, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, has become a widely recognized cause of serious disease and death. Well-known pathogens like Streptococcus pneumoniae (the causative agent of many pneumonias) and Salmonella are more frequently found to be resistant, and difficult-to-treat infections with these pathogens are becoming more common. Dr. Margaret Chan, director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), did not mince words when she warned last year, "the world is heading toward a post-antibiotic era, in which many common infections will no longer have a cure and, once again, kill unabated."
The agency responsible for ensuring that animal drugs are used in ways that are safe for humans has been derelict in its duties for decades.
Epidemiologists now contend that we have entered the next transition -- one marked by, among other things, the increasing resistance of bacteria to antibiotics.
When a physician prescribes an antibiotic to treat an infection, he or she will select the specific antibiotic and dose that are most likely to cure the disease. If the wrong antibiotic is chosen or the dose is too low to treat the disease, some bacteria -- those most resistant to the drug used -- will survive and reproduce, allowing the disease to return or prolonging the resolution of the infection.
Most of the food animals fed antibiotics are not diseased. Nor would the amounts they receive be high enough to treat disease if they were. Rather, food animals are continuously fed small quantities of antibiotics throughout their lives to make them grow faster. Today, the overwhelming majority of antibiotics in this country -- nearly 80 percent -- are sold for use in food animals, not humans.
The development of resistance is Darwinian evolution on a microscopic scale. Bacteria compete with each other for limited resources. Some bacteria are more susceptible to antibiotics than others, and become less able to compete when exposed to an antibiotic. Repeated exposure to an antibiotic will continue to make resistant bacteria better competitors, allowing them to increase their numbers relative to the susceptible organisms -- especially when continuously exposed to the low doses of antibiotics typically used in industrial food animal production. This practice facilitates and promotes the development of antibiotic resistance -- and threatens public health.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) A flash flood watch has been issued for southeastern and south-central Arizona until 9 p.m. Thursday.
The National Weather Service says the flood watch covers the cities of Oracle, Safford, Nogales, Sierra Vista, Sells and Tucson.
Forecasters say there is an increased threat of widespread heavy rainfall Thursday across much of the area because of a very moist air mass combined with a weather disturbance tracking north out of northern Mexico.
The storms will be capable of producing very heavy rainfall which could lead to flash flooding Thursday afternoon and evening.
Forecasters say conditions are becoming favorable for widespread flash flooding to develop.

This event is going to be a great addition to your Olympic party games. Ask all the kids to gather on the starting line and tell them that they are going to run the Olympic race around the block. This race needs to be supervised by two elders on the bike, one in the front and the other at the back, just to prevent that none of the kids get hurt. The kids would run the block and the one who will arrive first will be the winner. At the end of the race, you need to give all the kids the Olympic medals, which you can buy from a store, so that every kid feels honored and part of such an interesting event. Get the pictures of the event and hand it out to the kids, which will be a wonderful gift from you.
I own this.

Disney Profit Lights Up
Updated from 4:48 p.m. EDT
Walt Disney (DIS) reported a 27% jump in second-quarter profits, beating estimates on Wall Street, as the media giant saw double-digit growth in operating earnings across of all its business units.
Still, the company's revenue fell slightly short of expectations, sending shares lower in after-hours trading.
For the quarter ended March 31, Disney earned $931 million, or 44 cents a share, up from the $733 million, or 37 cents a share, a year earlier. Analysts had an average estimate for expected earnings of 38 cents a share, according to Thomson Financial.On its top line, Disney reported a 1% uptick in revenue to $8.07 billion, compared with analysts' expectation of $8.12 billion. The company's biggest division by revenue, media networks, recorded a 21% jump in operating income to $1.18 billion, though revenue was virtually flat at $3.56 billion. The division includes the broadcast network ABC and the cable sports network ESPN. While ABC logged a 7% decline in revenue amid lower ratings, the broadcaster enjoyed a 33% increase in operating income due to syndication sales of hit shows like Desperate Housewives, Lost, and Grey's Anatomy and its new series Ugly Betty and Brothers and Sisters. The cable networks, led by ESPN, had a 19% gain in operating income on a 7% increase in revenue. Elsewhere, Disney's film business racked up a 60% surge in operating income to $235 million. The bottom line got a boost from improved domestic results from new film releases, like Wild Hogs and Bridge to Terabithia, coupled with lower distribution expenses due to timing of those releases.
