Several things to commend this one in the series - the catchy song, Olive's battle with the sexy blonde boxing instructor and Popeye's unexpected attraction to another woman. There was a rumor that the blonde was slated to reappear in more cartoons... (read more)

Too bad for the spinach in this case. I could have watched Mae work over Olive all day. She was sexy for a cartoon character. Too bad they did not bring her back for other cartoons. That would have been great if mae took the spinach away from Olive, but that... (read more)

Proposed Fort Smith Osteopathic School Gets Anonymous $14M Donation
by Lee Hogan
Posted 5/23/2014 10:27 am
Updated 7 months ago
The osteopathic medical school proposed in Fort Smith recently received a sizable, surprise financial gift from an anonymous donor.
Kyle Parker, president and CEO of Arkansas Colleges of Health Education, said the school was recently the beneficiary of a $14 million donation, which pushes the cash available for the proposed school at Chaffee Crossing to $80 million including $58 million approved for the project by the Fort Smith Regional Healthcare Foundation.
"Anytime you have that kind of capital, it eases some of the choices in regard to expenditures and the timing of those expenditures," Parker said.
The proposed Arkansas College of Osteopathic Medicine recently named Kenneth A. Heiles, D.O., as its dean. Heiles was also named ACHE dean.
Parker said the hire of Heiles, who he says has national acceptance and recognition in the medical field, has allowed the school to move quicker into the accreditation process, which in turn, has moved up the proposed opening date, by a year, to August 2016.
"Everything is still proposed in nature," Parker said. "We still have to achieve accreditation."
Right now, the medical school is in the applicant status and has notified the national accreditation agency and the Arkansas Department of Higher Education. Parker said the school anticipates filing for pre-accreditation, or a feasibility study, with the ADHE in June and the national agency in August.
Unlike a feasibility study that defines a need for a medical school in the area, Parker says this type includes plans for admission, academics, size of the building, number of classes and students, and other items.
"It's an extensive report," he said.
Parker said the school anticipates receiving pre-accreditation status at the end of July from the state and the end of December from the national agency, at which time it will move forward with construction.
The medical school is set to decide upon its architect May 28.
While the actual cost and size of the building are "still up in the air," Parker said the current idea is for an 80,000 to 100,000-SF building. The school hopes for 150 students in its first year.

3LAU Releases Dance Floor Filth Vol. 4 Bootleg Mashup Album [Free Download]Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: 3LAU, Album, Electro House, Free Download, Mashup, progressive house
3LAU is someone we have been promoting since his early bootleg mashup days, sponsoring his first ever "Dance Floor Filth Volume 1" a couple of years back which jump started his entire career. He has grown far past mashups with some very successful originals on Tiesto's label, Steve Aoki's Dim Mak label, and collaborations with Dash Berlin on top of an internationally charting song "How You Love Me" featuring Bright Lights.
Well 3LAU goes back to his roots once again and delivers us the next chapter in his Dance Floor Filth series with Volume 4. The free bootleg mashup album features 8 huge tunes ready to shut down clubs and festivals across the globe. The songs follow his signature pattern of blending big names like Calvin Harris to Martin Garrix with newer acts like ZHU and Tchami with many including up to 6 tracks, all seamlessly blended giving the listener completely new sounding tracks. I don't think there's anyone that can do bootlegs better than 3LAU, he may have truly perfected the art. Listen below to the free album and for every download a dollar will be donated to Pencils Of Promise to help build a school. Enjoy!

My story has changed quite a lot since moving to Boulder, Colorado and starting Thissongissick back in 2010. My name is Nick Guarino and this is Thissongissick.com. We've grown a lot since, but the original goal has always stayed the same: making it easier for you to discover sick new music that you've never heard before. In high school I would make mix cd's for my friends to show them all the new music I was discovering. Now, through TSIS, we work with musicians and record labels from all over the world to showcase a variety of the freshest electronic, hip-hop, indie, and alternative music to a global following that is comprised of millions of music lovers in over 110 countries - every single month. So, make yourself at home while enjoying countless amazing musicians from a variety of genres and let the sick sounds fill your ears! - Nick

Honestly they are awesome, perfect to apply when you really don't want to wear much of anything...plus most lip balms having nothing on them. Also their lip glosses are awesome, nearly as good as some of revlon's in my opinion with a much better smell.

I collected these as a tween, and had two long shoelaces strung full of them. The grape pop was my favorite, and I got in trouble for not taking them out of my jeans pockets before my mother did my laundry more than once. Nostalgia aside, I currently use these as lip balm, not lip gloss per se, so my preference is for the clear, non-shimmery ones - shimmer and pigment are both drying. Thus, the vanilla is my personal favorite. I do like that they give my lips a bit of shine, since I'm always wearing lip balm whether I'm wearing lipcolor or not. If they have a flaw, it's that the scent/flavor and formulation on new ones can be hit or miss - the cookies and cream flavor was drying, and I really dislike the smell of the watermelon one, for example. Nevertheless, since I keep several lip balms around the house, I can buy the multipacks/party packs and keep myself in stock while trying new flavors, or just nab a vanilla one if I don't feel like experimenting. I wish they'd update the packaging a bit (I loved the bubble tops and holographic labels on the Cosmic Smackers when they were sold individually for a while), but since it's just lip balm, I'm over it. BTW, Bonne Bell is a great company for customer service - when I expressed my sadness at a particular product being discontinued, they sent me several of them along with a few other goodies.

These are really great! I have the cherry flavored one. It seems full of luxurious moisturizers and smells just like fresh cherries. It adds a delicate pink flush to your lips. I also have the Dr. Pepper flavored one but hate the soda flavoring (even though I love sodas). Lip Smackers is tops in my book. I plan to occasionally still use lip ointment or conditioner but definitely want to keep Lip Smackers handy. Highly recommended.
Strawberry is my favorite : )) Very moisturizing lip balms that smell really good! Ive used these forever and ever and I dont plan on changing!
Oh, lipsmackers! I used to love these soo much! It's been years since I've had one. They are not very moisturising , but who cares! They're fun! The flavors, the colors... I might just go buy one tomorrow for old times sake.

Ok so i am a teenager who does make a lot of money. prob about 50 dollors a month. not even sometimes. i dont have the money to go to MAC and stuff like that. This is wonderful!!!! Its very cheap and i have been wearing them since i was four!!!! they are great and the new lip glosses are fab!!!! They are high shine and very flavorful!!!
I've always loved Bonne Bell Lipsmackers ever since discovering them in my early teens. I love the bright packaging and the variety of colours and smells. When I was younger I used to buy as many as I could get my hands on and compare them with friends. Now days I tend to only buy the pink or red colours with no glitter just to add a hint of colour to my lips, I'll continue to repurchase throughout my life as these little lipglosses are cheap and fun and just a nice little staple to have on hand in my handbag.
i remember how i loved these as a kid, and they work well too
lip smackers! haha, gotta love these :). smells good and smooths well <3 the only thing is that they are REALLY expensive for a lip balm. lol :)
ima huge coke fan and this is heaven! i exfoliate my lips and put thin on,god smooth natural pink lips.

The January 2009 Podcasting Grant judging is completed! Congratulations to three lucky winners who will each receive over $2,400 in prizes. Click here to see the applications from the Honorable Mention Winners!
Here are the grant applications of our three Grand Prize winning teachers:
Jennifer LaGarde, Myrtle Grove Middle School
Wilmington, NC 28409
Using Riordans novel as a jumping off place, 6th grade students will make use of the technology awarded by this grant, (as well as existing technology), to complete a (web) quest of their own, in which they connect the dots between ancient Greek culture and modern life. NC curriculum goals in both Language Arts and Social Studies, as well as in Science and Technology will be addressed as students tackle a variety of projects which will include, but will not be limited to:
Podcasted testimony in front of the Council of Olympians in which students will provide scientific explanations of numerous Greek myths.
Podcasted testimonials in which students assume the personas of one of the Greek gods and provide their interpretation of how they think these ancient deities would react to modern life in the United States.
Creation of a script for As Mt. Olympus Turns, a podcasted soap opera/explanation of the Greek family tree.
Creation of the ABCs of Greek Life and Mythology, an online wiki-resource for students to contribute to and utilize in their study of Greek culture, life and contributions.
Creation of audio/visual Thank You Cards, an online resource in which students would photograph examples of Greek influences in modern architecture, city planning, etc., as well as audio-linked explanations and thank-yous to the Greeks for their inspiration.
Creation and maintenance of a blog in which students respond to global questions relating to The Lightning Thief, the reasons why Greek culture has endured throughout the ages as well as what aspects of our culture they see as having the potential to influence future generations and societies. The blog will also provide a format for students to reflect on and evaluate their own contributions to the unit and completion of each task. Student contributions to the blog would be submitted in written, audio and visual formats.
With this project, students will have the opportunity to discover the relevance of ancient societies to the modern world. By utilizing 21st century technologies and skills, students at Myrtle Grove Middle School will be afforded the chance to link these two cultures by highlighting the literary, scientific, and cultural threads that connect them. Further, this project will enable teachers to bring this ancient world to life by engaging students in numerous hands on activities that will spark creativity, employ higher order thinking skills and require mastery of new forms of technology.
Grade Level: 6th
Number of students: 100+ participating
Project subject areas: This unit will cover NC curriculum goals in the areas of Science, Social Studies, Language Arts, Reading and Technology.
Here is how we will use the resources provided with the grant:
Tool Factory Software: The Tool Factory Software will be used to produce all podcasted components of the student webquest. From their audio testimony in front of the Council of Olympians, to reflective audio posts on the class blog, the Tool Factory Software will become the instrument through which our students produce the evidence of their learning. Further, by teaching students to utilize this software, we are confident that it will continue to be used in numerous projects throughout our school that we have simply yet to envision.
Digital Voice Recorders and Microphones: The digital voice recorders will be used to record podcasting segments throughout the school. Because students will be working independently or in small groups for much of the project, the Digital Voice Recorders will afford them the opportunity to take their quest beyond the walls of the classroom as they record segments on location. The portability of these devices will enable our students to ascertain the most suitable environment for audio recording and to discover pockets of productivity within our crowded building. A podcasting station will also be set up in the school library where students use the microphones and headphones to record scripted podcasting segments.
Clip Art Station: The clipart station will provide an opportunity for us to discuss and model ethical copyright practices while also offering students a plethora of resources which they can use to enhance the visual appeal of their projects. Our blog, wiki and other online applications will be visually enhanced by the resources available on the Clip Art Station while also insuring that our students are following the tenants of Fair Use.
Worksheet Station: The storyboard and script writing worksheets available through Worksheet Station will be used as the foundation of all student podcasts. Additionally, worksheets on caption writing, editing and the use of figurative language, coupled with the wide variety of available graphic organizers, will also be utilized to improve the substance of each of our podcasted products. Further, these skill building tools will only enhance student performance in other classes and we envision using them throughout the year to create a cohesive means of improving student proficiency in the skills that support all curriculum areas.
Tool Factory Simple Guide to Podcasting: This step by step guide will be used as a resource for both teachers and students as they learn the ins and outs of podcasting. It is our goal to use this instruction manual to train our students who, as 6th graders, will then go on to train other students and even teachers. The Simple Guide to Podcasting will provide us with the knowledge to help our students gain the mastery they need to teach these skills to others throughout our school.
Web Page Station: Like the Tool Factory Simple Guide to Podcasting, the Web Page Station will be used as an instructional resource both for teachers and our future student trainers. Furthermore, we will make great use out of the ability to host our podcasts on the Web Station Server as limited server space has been one of the main stumbling blocks we have encountered as we attempt to make our students effective users of 21st century technology. This host site will be an essential part of making our project a success.
Rebekah Smith, Astec Charter Middle School
Oklahoma City, OK 73142
Upon completion of the Mars habitat, students will create a podcast in technology class to tell about each component of the project. It will be written, recorded and presented as a diary about life on Mars. Prior to creating the podcast, students will listen to examples of podcasts from various sites. Students will examine the differences between a National Public Radio (NPR) podcast and a trendy one posted on the web. This will help give students ideas for how to create their own style of podcast.
The Worksheet Station Subscription and Tool Factorys Simple Guide to Podcasting book will help students with the understanding of how to create a podcast.
Next, students will be asked to compile a script for their groups podcast from the information they learned in science about human life surviving on Mars. Students will then use the Olympus Digital Voice Recorders and the Microphones with Noise Cancellation to record their podcast diaries. Students will then use the Tool Factory Podcasting software to edit and finalize their unique Mars diary podcast. Finally, podcasts will be posted on the web for the world to enjoy.
The Clip Art Station and the Web Page Station will help with the design and production of the website I created to post the podcasts. This project utilizes Oklahomas Priority Academic Students Skills (PASS) standards in science and instructional technology. This lesson applies the inquiry of Earth/Space science combined with the students ability to demonstrate knowledge of technology communication tools. The Mission to Mars: Space Diaries integrates National Educational Technology standards to design and adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity.
Advanced Science and Technology Education Center Charter School (ASTEC) is located in a low socioeconomic inner city area. Approximately 90% of our middle school students participate in the free or reduced lunch program; many of them do not have computers in their home, or the capability to create a podcast and post on the internet. The experience of creating and sharing this type of work with the world will expand their use of technology and provide them with a sense of accomplishment. It will give students the chance to experiment with multimedia, and encourage a desire to work in the media industry. ASTEC is a school that focuses on college preparation beginning in the sixth grade. Our students focus on getting a first rate education and strive toward college. They deserve the opportunity to use this kind of technology in order share their thoughts and ideas with other around the world. Not only will the podcasting equipment benefit current students of ASTEC, but this project and others similar to it will continue for years to come impacting thousands of young students minds.
Donna Jones, Bonne Ecole Elementary
Slidell, LA 70458
Lesson Title: Giving a Voice to Literature
As an extension assignment after completing the book in their book clubs, students will be asked to put together a promotional podcast to recommend this book to other groups. Based on their own interests, students will create a jigsaw project and put it together in one podcast with sound effects and music. Two students from the group can act out a favorite scene, two students can act out an interview as a character from the book, they can make a promotional commercial for the book, and two others can give a book review as a famous reviewer. Students will edit their podcast on the computer using Tool Factory Software and present it to other groups and other classes to promote their book.
The resources provided by this grant will be essential elements required for the completion of this project. They will be used in the following ways:
Digital Voice Recorders: The students will use these to record their interviews, the scenes they reenact, the commercials, and the book reviews for playback and reporting to the rest of the group for input and evaluation. The ease of being able to use these from anywhere will allow the students to work in an environment that is both quiet and private. The students can also use them to practice and polish their work before moving to the in-class podcasting stations.
Microphones and Headphones: These will be connected to the computers as podcasting stations. The final projects will be recorded on the computer using these and edited using the podcasting software that will be downloaded on to these designated computers.
Tool Factory Podcasting Software: This software will be used to edit, create, and produce our podcasts in the classrooms. We will also use this software to publish our podcasts to the Web pages we will create for our classroom.
Web Page Station: We will use this subscription to create a Web Page to publish our finished podcasts for others to enjoy. Hopefully this will encourage other classes around the country to try this new tool for learning when they see the awesome projects my class has produced.
The Clip Art Station: This will be used to create podcast specific flyers for the students to pass out when presenting their podcast to other students. This station will also be an invaluable resource for many other technology projects throughout the year at every grade level.
The Worksheet station and Tool Factorys Simple Guide to Podcasting book and CD will be used for professional development for teachers at our school. This is such new technology and many teachers see new technology as a complicated hassle rather than an awesome tool for learning. These two tools will show the ease of use and simplicity of production and will encourage these teachers to take the plunge and use it in their classroom. This will also aid in the training of the students in the art of podcasting and editing. After all, they are the ones that will create the awesome projects we show off on our web pages!
The main purpose of this project is to show students that great literature is supposed to be shared and enjoyed. I dont want them to learn that answering questions or filling out a worksheet is the only way to respond to what they read or show what they learned. The creativity that my students possess is hidden behind the boring day to day routines of the typical reading assignment. They are begging for this type of technology incorporated into their learning. I have instituted book clubs to peak their interest and now I would like to use podcasting to take that interest to the next level.
The school in which I teach has a high percentage of free and reduced lunch, about 48%. Althought the percentage is high, federal funding cutbacks last year have made it so that we fall just short of the funding that usually accompanies that high percentage. Without this grant, this kind of project cannot become a reality.

I Shot the Serif was far and away the most fun game. Very challenging but winnable. I always need help with font selection, so thanks for this post.
3 Interactive Games to Help You Learn About FontsAugust 19th, 2014
When building an elearning course there are three main considerations:
- What content will be in the course?
- What will it look like?
- What will the learner do?
Most of the content in the course is text. And the look and feel of the course is also dependent on text. That's because the text in your course serves two functions: it is what we read and it is a graphic that contributes a contextual look and feel.
How to Learn About Fonts & Typography
In today's world there's no shortage of free fonts. The challenge is learning more about them and how they're best used in your elearning courses. And one of the best ways to learn about fonts is to play some games.
You'll find a few different activities and games that help you learn more about fonts. But before you jump into the font games, let's take a step back and think about games in general.
Since this blog focuses on elearning and courses design, look at these font games as if they were elearning courses. What do you like best? Are there things you can apply to your own courses? How do they engage the learning process?
Now onto the games.
Games to Help You Learn About Fonts
Spacing of letters in your words helps make the text easier to read. If you move letters too close together it's hard to read. And if the letters are too far apart, it's hard to discern distinct words. The spacing between letters also contributes to the font's style.
Kerntype helps you learn about kerning (spacing) by dragging letters and positioning them to look right. After you drag the letters, you compare your choice to the recommended solution.
Fonts have different elements that make them unique. One of those elements are whether it has a serif or not. Can you spot the fonts with a serif? If so, take your best shot.
In a previous post we discussed a few simple rules when selecting font pairs. The TypeConnection game takes it a step farther by letting you match two fonts and seeing how they pair up. It's a great way to learn about what works and what doesn't when using different type.
Which game did you enjoy most?

Nerd Alert! I had so much fun! I love fonts and often have discussions about what fonts help "tell the story" of the content we're delivering. People totally think I'm a geek – but I don't care. I just had the most fun during my lunch break playing these games. Thank you for sharing!! (My favorite was I Shot the Serif, too!)
Fun and educational! Thanks, Tom!
Totally fun and timely! We have had very churning "kerning" discussions this week – what serendipity that you had a game to illustrate the points! I forwarded your blog immediately to highlight 1. the learner perspective of this concept, and 2. that I am NOT crazy! But I agree, I am a nerd that I loved all of the games and learning derived from them! But I shot the serif is my fave! Thank you!!!!!

Xbox 360 offering free Gold weekend, paired with Black Ops 2, Far Cry 3 double XP
by Steve Watts, shacknews.com, Apr 19, 2013 11:30AM PDT
If you own an Xbox 360, and particularly if you only own an Xbox 360, the Gold requirement for online play and services can be a pain. This weekend, Microsoft is offering a cooling salve, in the form of free access, so you can join those with disposable income in watching movies and hearing preteens shout racist epithets at you for stealing their kill.
The free weekend was announced on the Major Nelson blog, which also highlighted a few events going on this weekend to make it extra-special. Black Ops 2, Assassin's Creed 3, and Far Cry 3 are all offering double XP for a limited time, so you can play online to rank up this weekend. In addition, Borderlands 2 has a SHiFT code for a Golden Key that's only active during the free weekend. The Netflix original series Hemlock Grove also debuts today, letting Netflix subscribers actually access their paid membership without an additional Microsoft-mandated paywall.

Te Amo Reviews
Showing 11 through 20 of 63 reviewsTe Amo Robusto
"Not bad"Te Amo Robusto
This is without doubt my favorite size cigar, 5.5x54. It burns uneven,looks as rough as a corncob and came in a little dry. The flavor is an entirely different matter...the Te Amo actually tastes quite good. A little sweeter than the Don Tomas and not as good as La Perla Habana Black Pearl, but not too bad. I doubt that I'd buy any more unless the price came down to under 45 bucks.Edward Roth in Michigan July 31, 2011
"Stale"Te Amo Robusto
These cigars were horrible, possibly the worst I've ever smoked. They tasted and smelled stale, arrived dried out, burned unevenly, and most importantly tasted horrible. I ended up throwing the last one away. The take away message for me was never buy cigars online unless you like getting saddled with inferior smokes.gnome in Austin, TX June 5, 2011
"Simply the best!"Te Amo Toro
The most enjoyable cigar I have ever had to mention a affordable.J Bigio in Toronto Canada May 23, 2011
"Usually a good to almost great smoke"Te Amo Robusto 5 Pack
I have been smoking the Te Amo Maduro Toro for about 15 years. Except for one occasion, they have been very good smokes bordering upon "almost great". They are mild to medium with a very consistent burn but only after they settle in a humidor. I had two cigars, purchased at the same time, that were pretty young and burned horribly. They were direct from a local tobaccanist before a golf game.Rick Collins in Montana May 19, 2011
"Decent Cigar for $$."Te Amo Robusto
For those of you that enjoy experiencing different cigars the Te-Amo won't disappoint you. The pre-smoke aroma is unique and you won't have any trouble with the construction or burn.Jim in Cranberry Twwp., PA May 2, 2011
"PERFECT!!"Te Amo Toro
Perfect cigar! Need I say more just try it.Jim in Cranberry Twwp., PA May 2, 2011 April 3, 2011
"Horrible, Harsh"Te Amo Churchill
I smoked this for about 10 minutes and then had to put it out. I was gifted this from a BOTL and I would consider it more of a curse than a gift. Cigar was veiny, bumpy and initial draws were very harsh. Finish was of tobacco taste but the taste during smoking was not desirable.Billy in MN January 27, 2011
"Well made One Trick Pony - Black Pepper"Te Amo Robusto
I bought this one before I learned how to find what I like. This was an excellent cigar, just not for me. I like one that'll set me back in the chair and make me wait for the next puff. This cigar I smoked without noticing it. Also, this one had no flavor that I could detect but pepper. It's finely made. Obviously the mildness and pepper are intentional. Someone loves these. I'll never buy another. I'll rate it low on flavor, as strength is not one of the categories. (FaSMoSho - you must help us find the right flavor AND strength - if not you're wasting our time)20 a week in Tennessee December 6, 2010
"Smooth and Consistent"Te Amo Toro
A great find. I enjoy this smoke very much, and smoke it down to the nub every time. Better than pricer brands!Rick Lynch in Illinois November 30, 2010
"Very Nice Surprise!"Previous Next
I really like this cigar. As faithful as I am to Oliva g Serie maduro I find this cigar has more character, depth and complexity. Not the prettiest in the humi nor is the band too fancy. Sometimes the bands are just flashy lures to get you to smoke a dog rocket. This cigar is the polar opposite of that. I enjoy this complex smooth medium body cigar very much and the price is ohhh sooo right!Brad S in Maryland November 5, 2010

10 new museum exhibits and events this fall
This fall, treat your inner culture vulture with one of these great museum happenings
Wed Sep 3 2014
CommentsAdd +
Photograph: Joanna Ebenstein
Wonderful new museum exhibitions abound this fall, from a hands-on exploration of a submarine at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum to jumping around in an "erotic" moon bounce at the Museum of Sex. Art lovers, there are plenty of other exhibits and events worth your time, including some can't-miss fall art exhibitions.
RECOMMENDED: See all things to do in New York this fall
Funland: Pleasures & Perils of the Erotic Fairground
This kooky installation by London-based artistic duo Bompas & Parr proves sex and carnivals aren't as different as you might have thought. From "Jump for Joy," a bounce house made of giant, oversize breasts, to "The Tunnel of Love," a mirrored labyrinth that takes patrons on a fantastical journey to the Gräfenberg (or "G") spot, this exhibit is nothing short of an educational sexcapade. Hear the circusesque sounds of composer Dom James, who specializes in creating atmospheric music for strange spaces, and indulge in Bompas & Parr's sex-themed, edible treats.
- Museum of Sex (MoSex) 233 Fifth Ave, at 27th St
- Until Wed Apr 1
"NYC Makers: The MAD Biennial"
Finally, an ultimate tribute to not just the artistic minds that make New York a creative hub, but also the behind-the-scenes guys we never hear about. NYC will pay homage to 100 awesome artists and their production teams who have shown outstanding levels of talent in their fields, from stonemasons and set designers to instrument makers and media-art collectives. The exhibit dedicated reveals how connected these seemingly very different art forms are. And maybe after this, you'll spot how all of these creative styles exist in our everyday New York City lives.
- Museum of Arts & Design 2 Columbus Circle, at Broadway, 10019
- Until Sun Oct 12
"Illuminations" is an exhibit centered around someone trying to get over love. While that may be something all of us have gone through, artist Florence Montmare took that experience and turned it on its head, presenting heartbreak as something incredibly beautiful and, dare we say it, quite poignant. Just because the subject matter is sad doesn't mean the art has to be.
- Ivy Brown Gallery 675 Hudson St, at W 13th St
- Thu Sep 18 - Sun Oct 19
"The Art of Mourning"
Not for the faint at heart, this macabre exhibit definitely doesn't skirt the issue of death and dying. Guests get a cultural look at how the inevitable fate was handled from the 18th to the 20th centuries. Channel ghosts at the spirit photo booth, and gawk at surreal grieving paraphernalia like death masks, art shadowboxes and memorial cards. "The Art of Mourning" was curated by musem founder Joanna Ebenstein. Be sure to check out never-before-seen artifacts from the private collection of Sleeping Beauty author Stanley B. Burns MD.
- Morbid Anatomy Museum 424A Third Ave, at 7th St, 11215
- Until Thu Dec 4
Ernest Cole: Photographer
Ernest Cole was a South African gentleman whose photography changed the world. His stark view of life during apartheid allowed the Western world to see what the media wasn't presenting. The pictures are incredible and truly moving. Don't miss this.
- Grey Art Gallery/NYU 100 Washington Sq East, between Washington and Waverly Pls
- Until Sat Dec 6
Mysteries of the Unseen World
Using high-speed and time-lapse photography, electron microscopy and nanotechnology, this exhibitreveals the thriving microscopic world that is invisible to the naked eye. We may never look at a nondisinfected surface the same way again.
- American Museum of Natural History Central Park West, at 79th St, 10024
- Until Wed Dec 31
"Killer Heels: The Art of the High-Heeled Shoe"
People—women and men alike—can't seem to get enough of high heels, and the higher the heel, the more likely that it will attract attention. That ability to captivate is the driving principle behind this show, which argues that, whatever the sexual connotations of high heels, they are also art objects. To illustrate this very sharp point, the exhibit will trot out examples of fetishy footwear from the 16th century to the present, courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute and the Bata Shoe Museum in Toronto.
- Brooklyn Museum 200 Eastern Pkwy, at Washington Ave
- Wed Sep 10 - Wed Dec 31
"Submerged"is an interactive exhibit where you can explore Growler, the only strategic missile submarine in the United States open to the public. The 40-foot sub will be located in the museum's hands-on immersive gallery, Exploreum Interactive Hall, where you'll be encouraged to climb onto the bunks where sailors slept, check out the old mess hall and act like you're navigating in the engine room by using the periscope. Visitors will also be taught how submarines submerge and move through water.
- Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum Pier 86, Twelfth Ave, at 46th St, 10036
- Until Wed Dec 31
"Mac Conner: A New York Life"
The career of illustrator McCauley ("Mac") Conner helped to define the look of midcentury America. One of the original Mad Men, Conner's style was crisp and refined and very urban; life in the big city was a frequent theme. His work, which was published in such magazines as Redbook and McCall's, owed a lot to the influence of Norman Rockwell (a boyhood idol), but also to film noir.
- Museum of the City of New York 1220 Fifth Ave, between 103rd and 104th Sts
- Wed Sep 10 - Sun Jan 11
Barbara Nessim: An Artful Life
Barbara Nessim is a pioneer in graphic design. The Bronx-born artist and illustrator was one of the first women in the field in the early 1960s, and her complex designs made waves in the creative world. Her new exhibit features more than150 of her works, ranging from computer-generated illustrations to textiles to fashion and more. The book Barbara Nessim: An Artful Life, exploring the details of the creative designer's career, accompanies the installation.
- Bard Graduate Center Gallery 18 W 86th St, between Central Park West and Columbus Ave
- Fri Sep 19 - Mon Jan 12

Jim Williams has been watching birds and writing about their antics since before "Gilligan's Island" went into reruns. Join him for his unique insights, his everyday adventures and an open conversation about the birds in your back yard and beyond.
We had two female Purple Finches at our window feeders Thursday morning. One of them died just before lunch, flying into the glass. That's one less finch in what could be a very slim winter for those visitors from the north.
The prediction comes from two birders in Canada – Jean Iron and Ron Pittaway – who each fall collect information on tree-seed crops. Those seeds are a deciding factor in how many northern finches we will see here in the coming months.
The seed crops are excellent, says the report, no flight year predicted for all but (possibly) Pine Grosbeaks. Observers expect finches to be spread thinly over almost the whole of Canada.
In summary, both crossbill species and Pine Siskins are expected to be widespread in Canada, in low numbers; some could drift south. Pine Grosbeaks could make a small movement south because Mountain Ash berry crops are variable in the boreal forest. Evening Grosbeaks are being seen in greater numbers in Ontario, probably because spruce budworm outbreaks are expanding there. Reporters say that Redpolls are unlikely to move south because the birch seeds on which they feed are plentiful this year.
This doesn't mean that there will be none of these birds at your feeders this winter. It suggests that they won't be numerous. Purple Finches have been reported at Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge, and I assume we have one left here. That's a start.
Thanks to Ron Pittaway of Ontario Field Ornithologists for sending the report (via the BirdChat email network), to Jean Iron for her contributions, and to dozens of birders across Canada who provided reports on seed conditions.
Below is one of the female Purple Finches seen at our window feeders Thursday. The markings on the face of the bird distinguish it from the more common House Finches. Female House Finches have plain, unmarked faces.
