He was familiar with three of the six alleged fakes among Cernuda's Art Miami selections because he claims to have seen each one before, on three separate occasions over the past four years. In each case, Ramos asserts, a different prospective seller sent him a snapshot-size photo of the painting, and then he saw it in person. He says he rejected all three as fakes.
As evidence they're fakes, he presents snapshots he received of each of the three paintings. For starters, he says, two of the paintings in the photos -- the Mesa nude and Atardecer (ca. 1910) by Antonio Rodriguez Morey -- are not signed. These three paintings are identical to the ones Cernuda had on display at Art Miami, he claims, except Cernuda's were signed. The landscape painting in the third photo, listed as Paisaje (1930) by Antonio Sanchez Araujo in Cernuda's catalogue, is signed, but Ramos alleges it was actually painted by an artist named Diego Guevara.
He says he can tell that the three other paintings he questions, including the Chartrand, are not authentic just by looking at them. For example, regarding the 1915 Gumersindo Barea still life titled Florero (Vase), Ramos says, "I don't think that painter could have painted it. That's my opinion. All of the work of Gumersindo Barea is watercolor. And everything he painted in oil was waterscapes and landscapes. Those flowers aren't from Cuba -- it's very strange. But I don't have photos or proof."
Ramos repeats that he doesn't believe Cernuda would deliberately sell forgeries. "I think there is someone in this town who dedicates himself to selling fake paintings," he ventures, "and who takes advantage of the fact that Ramon doesn't know anything about art from that period and sold [the paintings] to him cheap."
Gallery owner Gary Nader, while questioning Cernuda's expertise, views Ramos as just another dealer posing as an expert whose opinions are further besmirching the image of the local art community. "What makes him an expert? Because he owns 50 paintings?" Nader sputters. "The guy came in a boat, he came with twenty paintings, and he sold them. He made money and he keeps buying and selling. That makes him an expert? He's trying to do a good job, but from there to an expert? Does he really know what he's doing?
"Sorry, this is not like in the land of the blind," he goes on, "where the man with one eye is king. No, no, it doesn't happen like that with art. There are too many mistakes made in Miami. That's why there are so many galleries that open and close and why there are so many collectors who don't collect anymore, because they've been misguided. And it affects everybody else. It affects people like me who have been 30 years in the business."
Naysayers will be assuaged, Ramos assures, as soon as a book he has written about his collection is published. He hasn't yet found a publisher but insists he will by the end of the year.
"That is a competitor saying these things," Cernuda responds in a calm and patient voice during a telephone interview in late February. "I have been defending Cuban art for many, many years. I don't think [Ramos] is capable of questioning these things."
Still, he entertains each of Ramos's assertions, dismissing them one by one.
On Desnudo Femenino (1917) by Manuel Mesa: "What [Ramos] doesn't know is that there are two Manuel Mesas," one born in 1903 and one in 1894.
On Paisaje con Campesinos (ca. 1870) by Esteban Chartrand: "I'm the expert in the world on Chartrand. [Ramos] consulted me on Chartrand."
On Del Lindero Hacia el Palmar (1948) by Antonio Rodriguez Morey: "That work was certified by experts in Cuba."
On Paisaje by Antonio Sanchez Araujo: "That's ridiculous."
On Florero (1915) by Gumersindo Barea: "That's ridiculous."
On Atardecer (ca. 1910) by Antonio Rodriguez Morey: "Have you checked his curriculum [vitae]?"
A week later, speaking in his art-filled office, Cernuda remains courteous. A fashionable black tie adorns his elegant shirt, his white hair cut stylishly just over the collar. He notes how his 1989 victory in federal court was followed by another in 1991, after he sued the City of Miami for trying to evict the Cuban Museum of Arts and Culture from its location in a former fire station. He speaks earnestly about his gallery. "This is, for my wife and me, a passion," he says. "Others own huge yachts. Others play golf." But he will not comment further on Ramos or his opinions about the paintings. The proper forum for discussing the authenticity of an artwork, he contends, is a private meeting, not in the media.
With the assistance of a Havana-schooled art conservator who now lives in Miami, Cernuda demonstrates one method for checking the age of paint using ultraviolet light and a cotton swab dipped in solvent. Oil paint does not fully dry for approximately ten years. If a painting is less than ten years old, the swab will absorb pigment. He performs the experiment on the Manuel Mesa nude. None of the paint from the signature rubs off on the swab. (Cernuda refused to allow New Times to publish any images of artwork from Cernuda Arte catalogues.)

The Nets came into Boston and struggled playing their game. They turned the ball over 4 times and gave up wide open threes to Paul Pierce. Brandon Bass connected on his first four shot and one of them was a dunk on Brook Lopez. Boston went up to an eight point lead but the Nets finished with a 10 to 2 run. Joe Johnson scored 7 and C.J. Watson hit two three pointers to take the lead. Deron Williams came out assertive and dominated the paint for the rest of the half. He lead the Nets to 14 straight points and a 10 point lead to end the half. The Brooklyn back-court combined for 27 points. The bad news was Gerald Wallace getting carried off due to an left heel contusion. He was ruled out at halftime.
One of the keys in this game was getting Avery Bradley in foul trouble. He had 4 fouls and only played 12 minutes out of the whole game.
With that the Nets took advantage. Williams and Johnson continues shooting well and Jerry Stackhouse chipped in. He made a quick 5 points and helped the Nets maintain an 11 point lead. Lopez continued to score as well and Boston couldn't handle the big three in the third quarter. Williams also dished 7 assist in that quarter. The rest of the half was dominated by the Nets. The big three combined for 70 points out of 101 and shot 89% from the free-throw line. Paul Pierce finished with 23 but did not get any help until late in the fourth quarter. The Nets played a great game specifically on defense. This type of play will definitely get them to at least the second round of the playoffs. Hopefully, the team will be a little healthier by then.
Box Score - NBA.com
Final Score : 101-93 Nets
Most Disappointing Stat of The Game : Lopez had 4 rebounds.
Promising Stat of The Game : Williams scored 15 points in the first half.
Scariest Moment of The Game : Gerald Wallace getting injured in the second quarter

Eric Holder, the attorney general, will make the decision on whether to pursue the death penalty. The Department of Justice is an independent, non-political agency. President Obama can't tell Holder what to do.
He's got Renee's torso.
You're cold because all of the blood is running out of your body, Roach. You're gonna be dead soon. I hope it was worth it.
Federal and State courts are completely separate. This dude committed multiple federal crimes and will be tried in a federal court. It doesn't matter that he is being tried as a civilian and not an enemy combatant, and it doesn't matter that he was in Mass, the death penalty is still on the table.
No death penalty in Mass. (was declared unconstitutional by Mass courts, voters in Mass. asked for a state constitutional amendment to make it legal in 80s and court said it was still unconstitutional) this guy will have life in prison somewhere. too bad.
We should kill him China-style. Firing squad, then send his family the bill for the ammunition used.
this guys torture should be to let him free once a week and just mahunt his ass all over again
Animalman, give it up you are wrong
Nevermind, fuck him.
The kid you called when you knew you were going out to fight. If he knew you at all, even just knew your name, he was on your side. Only the last 3-4 months did he turn radical and fucked up.
Just to give a little background. The kid who died was
Great chance to ball tag that bitch for all America, I would recommend castration…. I liked the picture of his bother better
Honestly, worst thing in the world if your a doc. Help/hinder this guy? Couldn't make that decision. I hope he lives, so he can live a life of agony. Its America; you get what you deserve.
Ditch digger's got it right. Hopefully the doctor looks the other way and amputates shit without question. Feed him oatmeal in prison until his death sentence so he has to lick every meal off his nubs.
I can hardly wait to see the Oliver Stone movie where he becomes a hero…
Does that mutt's body come in mens? Why is it always skinny runts that do these things?
you see those baggy pants? clearly TMZ is right and hip-hop is to blame.
God bless the man who saw him on the boat and kept calm
I know we'd all like to see this cunt dead – but I'm actually glad they kept this fucker alive. His brother got the easy way out. This cum stain is gonna have one totally miserable fucking life for the rest of his days on earth. No virgins. No Allah. Just a size 12 bleeding sphincter that sounds like wind whistling under a bridge when he farts after Bubba yanks it out. I'll gladly pay for that.
Chill, Nasty Nate! Just kidding, have fun with him.
Is he wearing Boxers and Gym shorts under is jeans????? Total psycho
I just dry heaved. Good ol George Bush? It's a nice moment. Don't ruin it
I hope that dickhole from salon who hoped that a white American did this catches AIDs next time he cheats on his life-partner, if he doesn't have it already.
They didnt even charge McVeigh with the civilian murders in Oklahoma,, they had a bunch of dead federal agents and they charged him federally.. They have a ton of options here, most of which lead to the death penalty. Agreed though.. glad it is over.
comparing this to oklahoma isn't fair. they beat off to the idea of killing convicts in oklahoma. mass is filled to the brim with liberals. i get the federal part, but the state in which this took place is going to play a major role i feel. oh well, time will tell. i'm just glad it's all over.
McVeigh got the needle for domestic terrorism. Same applies here. This kid has no intel to give, most likely. The others were "spared" because they talked and gave "significant" intel. McVeigh didn't and this kid most likely won't. An American citizen being put to death for domestic terrorism has already happened and hopefully it will again in this case.
They don't need a confession. It makes sense to the police and prosecutors to question him without the benefit of Miranda because they want more information on other devices, motive and other persons involved. On the off chance the statement gets suppressed – they have an overwhelming amount of evidence. So it's a good tactical move. Coming from a defense attorney. It's more dicey where they question him at the hospital while he is being treated. A lawyer may make an issue out of that later but as I said its worth it to get the information.
I hope you guys party hard tonight in Boston.
elena kagan and the liberals on the supreme court may advocate this asshole to be tried in state court(which is completely contradictory to their whole political ideology, that states retain individual rights) just so this schmuck avoids the death penalty
@Murray Chadwick: I know what you mean. The very thought of an Elizabeth Warren type being even remotely involved in this case scares the shit out of me.
@animalman.. he will get the needle 100%. The underwear bomber didnt kill anyone (and was tried in federal court), Bin laden's son in law is still being tried (in federal court).
Glad we captured him so we can get info out of him. Having said that , i found a great way to avoid people complaining about human rights in America… Send him to china to answer for the death of that student. Thatd go reallllll well for him
@animal they already waived the Miranda rights because they invoked the "public safety threat" provision, so thats a good step.
2) he is treated like a citizen for the most part, well, because he is a citizen. Its a fundamental necessity to give citizens the full protection of the Constitution (sounds shitty, i know, but it is a necessity) otherwise the Const. will become worthless.
3) he will be tried federally. too many federal resources and he will be charged with terrorism and/or terroristic threats which are predominantly federal statutory laws so by all signs he should be tried federally and get the needle.
that being said, i agree that no one knows what Obama will do. he may send him back to Chechnya who the F knows
Fuck you and fuck where you came from you piece of shit. Viva la Boston!
I'm honestly afraid of Liberal protection in this case. I'm NOT saying i'm against individual rights and protections. I'm saying i'm against nonsenseical blabberings of liberal intellectual and legal scholars who may eventually turn the tide of the populus here in MA. This is MA after all. It just scares me. So much shit here seems to fly in the face of common sense.
@rpw, i hope you're right, but i doubt it just by looking at past examples. another thing that pisses me off about obama is that he does an awesome job bombing these fuckers with drones, but for some reason, tries them as civilians when they're arrested. like wtf? make up your mind.
$2.00 round in the head is ok. Ill buck up another $2.00 for a double tap to the fucking head of this coward.
This ain't gonna be like Clay Davis beating corruption charges because he was tried in Baltimore City Court. This WILL be tried in Federal Court, and the only way he avoids the needle is if he squeals.
This fucker deserves the Prometheus treatment: get tied to a port-a-potty in the streets of Boston and citizens are allowed to poke, prod, throw stuff at, and generally cause the rest of his miserable life to be as agonizing and humiliating as possible. Death is too good for him.
Pres just posted this. Shootout with suspect. HOLY SHIT!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=796UFHldHM4
law student here- federal jurisdiction all over this. yes it was solely in Mass, but once FBI and federal sources are allocated to an event, federal courts retain jurisdiction.
He will get the needle. Like Timothy McVeigh in OK City bombings, this kid will die
capital murder, execution.
agreed, thats why states need to stop abolishing the death penalty. if this took place in texas, obama wouldn't be able to say shit. only thing that sucks about death penalty is that its more expensive than life in prison with the appeals process. and that's why i support death penalty reform. get these guys to the needle faster.
How many push ups can he do?
@animalman, sorry I didn't read all your past posts. Only read that you said there were two cases. Now I see that you said Richard Reid and Osama's son. My bad. This is where Obama worries me!! Not to get political, but he's been the one hell bent on trying these suspects in civilian courts. Terrible idea.
photo of suspect 2 in the ambulance
Menino looked awful tonight. Pres should have knocked over his wheelchair and taken the helm.
Speaking as recent graduate of law school. and hopefully a lawyer in two weeks when I get my BAR exam results.. He will most likely get the death penalty. If the case is handed over to the FBI (and it will be) they have the power to give him the needle. Also Miranda rights are not necessary in this type of situation….. But if you watched any of the news coverage that should have been clear by now anyway.
@jdarts do you even read bro?
@animalman, who are the two examples? Did they just somehow avoid the death penalty but were up for it? Totally different situation in that case. I'm almost 100% certain he'll be charged federally.
Where the hell did this come from? Same sweatshirt as 7-11 pic, definitely legit
yes he could, but its more unlikely than it is likely. if this took place in a state with death penalty, i'd put the house on the needle. in mass, i'd say its likely it'll be life.
cant wait to see the public defender who takes this case
All those theorist are quite now.. fuck them and fuck him…
Craaaazy shit….can't believe they got this cunt alive
@presmoobs is right. He'll be tried in federal and get the juice.
like i said, 2 examples of terrorists not getting death penalty. i'm not a lawyer but with a little research, it looks like the death penalty won't be in play. could be wrong but i doubt it.
@presmoobs, I think my night's a little ruined knowing that even one person even gives a fuck about this clowns miranda rights. That's got pussification of America headline written all over it.
@animalman you realize the federal government can prosecute U.S citizens right? It's an act of domestic terror, it's within their jurisdiction to charge him with the death penalty.
The feds plead out the underwear bomber for intel, hence the lack of a trial.He squealed to avoid the needle.
Some recorded audio from the police scanner, dating back to early this morning/last night. Thought you might want it
He might get the death penalty for killing an officer. Hopefully the doctors "accidenally" amputate all his limbs and cocknballs
Tango down
So close to seeing his soaked crotch from when he pissed himself. But this will still do.
Also gotta love the armchair lawyer in the crowd "what about his miranda rights!!!"
well asshole, contrary to what you've seen in law and order, your not entitled to those until your the subject of custodial interrogation. I don't think they have many questions for this scumbag at the moment.
But fear not reporter douche, they'll read them to him once he wakes up so his statements are nice and admissible.
hate that he gets to live a second longer, but we need to extract some "intel" from this fucker. then, once he's in jail, he will eventually die a very painful death, rest assured.
Cue the duckboats!!!!
both the underwear bomber (life in prison) and osama bin laden's son in law (life in prison expected) were charged as civilians. so they likelihood that this kid, who's a US citizen, will fall under federal death penalty is unfortunately slim.
Killed a cop. Federal death penalty applies. Warm up Old Sparky.
That picture is crazy. He deserves an Pulitzer.
Amazing stuff today
I can't believe he got away the first time.. He's the same size as Fetelberg
He can be charged federally, but he needs to survive the night. After he gives us the answers we all want, he has my permission to die.
and if they give the Aunt a reality show on Showtime, I may subscribe. Riveting…
@beast, exactly.
@animalman true but this is a federal matter, and uncle sam believes in the needle.
Tight swimmers bod…they are gonna love it in "Federal Pound Me In The Ass" prison
Here's the assholes real twitter account. Interesting that he defends Islam by saying it's not a terrorist religion, then goes out and commits a terrorist act. Makes sense. http://www.theverge.com/2013/4/19/4242958/twitter-account-boston-suspect-dzhokhar-tsarnaev-found
Animalman, Never Heard Of The Federal Death Penalty?
EDIT FROM LAST BLOG (i'm slightly buzzed and not afraid to admit i'm emotional).
I remember when the Red Sox won the WS in '04. I was in the financial district with my buddies. We all KNEW we needed to get to Kenmore to celebrate. HAD to be there. Well, that seems like a joke now. I'm a husband and a father now, and I am watching people cheering by Mt Auburn Hosp with such jealousy. Puts it into perspective. Hug your kids. Be a better friend, husband, brother, cousin, whatever. Be more positive. Be a better person. Life is fragile and apparently psychos are many. Strive to be better citizens – if you're involved in Fantasy baseball or Football – well, for fucksakes – get at LEAST that involved in politics – no MATTER how you vote. Just be educated. People we elect will create policies that deal with exactly THIS situation in the future and hopefully prevent them.
I love this city, I love this State, I love this Country. We all protect it.
Hope they show him the picture of his brother's corpse right away.
Hope his cunt of an aunt gets to hear his confession.
I know nothing about the law, nor am I going to pretend I do, but couldn't he be charged in a military court and/or federally and face the death penalty? I'm talking to you animalman. Don't think state laws necessarily matter in this case. Somebody with more knowledge of the law please fill me in though.
does he even lift?
Fuck you Borat Bin Laden! Hope it was a bumpy ride to MGH.
Oh shit, what a little bitch. Your gonna be taking some Lexington Steele sized pipe soon enough pussy!!!!
Bro could use some pizza
No death penalty in Mass. Fail.
I hope they're getting ready to do the rat torture from 2 fast 2 furious
Terrorists your game is through now you have to answer to AMERICA FUCK YEAH!
A $2.00 round through the forehead would have been more economical.
This is the product of a successful barstool manhunt
Skinny punk bitch. My vote is Braveheart style torture in front of Faneuil hall.

Letter: Rules should apply when the wealthy few control the media
Written by Lawrence Uniglicht Monday, August 26, 2013 03:45 pm
< Prev | Next > |
When billionaires buy media outlets such as newspapers or news stations, they have the ability to control information, and influence public perceptions. The recent purchase of the Washington Post by Amazon billionaire Jeffrey P. Bezos, and the prior purchases of Fox News and the Wall Street Journal by ethically challenged and filthy rich Rupert Murdoch, booted out of the U.K for scandalous journalistic practices, are two prominent examples.
Might the potential to manipulate the public for personal gain become a serious threat, whether exercised or not, whenever a real or legal person (namely a corporation) squats atop the Fourth Estate? Should "We the People" not be concerned when news could be slanted to say enhance the wealth of some insanely rich power broker and his cronies?
The same truth in advertising rules ought to apply to manipulative media outlets. Indeed, they should let their audiences know they are not objective sources of information. And spinning news like a frictionless gyroscope ought to engender substantial penalties by the FCC. Chronic violators ought to lose their licenses to broadcast.
Propaganda indeed fills the popular airwaves worldwide allowing the wealthiest of the wealthy here and abroad, who in effect own those airwaves, to maintain or increase their ill gotten gains at the expense of everyone else. These billionaire creeps pull the strings of their morally challenged henchmen squatting in the Hallowed Halls of America's Congress and elsewhere to do their bidding, and make sure their information filtration system remains intact.
Yet, the Internet, if not debauched or made inaccessible, may allow those who care to ferret out the truth, find ways to overcome the deceptive rhetoric that manipulates minds, ever increases the wealth gap between the few controllers of the popular message and their vast receptive audience.
We will have to wait and see.

I'm not exactly sure where my obsession to make raspberry curd came from… might have been something I saw pinned to Pinterest or it might have been a recipe on one of the dozens of blogs I follow. But, for the last 2 weeks I've been dreaming non-stop about making it! I made lemon curd a while back and used it to fill cupcakes, it was amazing… so I was pretty sure that raspberry curd would be amazing too!
A few days ago, my family and I stopped at a roadside tent to buy some fresh local German raspberries and I hid them away in my refrigerator so no one would eat them. This morning, I got them out and made the most delicious curd I've ever tasted!
The recipe is really quite simple and it only took about 15 minutes to make!! I'm going to use this raspberry curd as a filling for dark chocolate cupcakes I'll be making later this week. YUM!
- 8 Tbsp (1 stick), unsalted butter
- 2½ cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- 6 medium egg yolks, lightly beaten
- ¾ cup sugar
- ⅛ tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp Lemoncino liquor (or fresh lemon juice)
- Melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat.
- Add the sugar, berries, egg, and salt. Heat until all the sugar has dissolved and all the berries have broken down. Stirring constantly.
- Cook at a low simmer (medium heat) for 10 minutes or until the mixture has thickened.
- Stir in the Lemoncino.
- Press the mixture through a coarse strainer sitting over a large bowl. Try to press out as much of the juice you can from the pulp and seeds of the berries.
- Pour mixture into a jar or container with a lid. Allow to cool on the counter for a few hours before covering and storing in the refrigerator. Curd will thicken as it cools.
- Keeps for about a month if kept cold.

Perfect timing.. neighbors berries are ripe and she keeps bringing them over Thank you for sharing
Just posted the result on my blog Very good recipe, I will be making this again soon.
Can I use raspberry curd to fill cupcakes or is it too thin? What, if anything can I add to it to use the curd I already made?
Trying to make a dessert for my mom who is allergic to sugar. Can this be made with honey instead?
Just made this today and using it with the Dark Chocolate Cupcakes for father's day. If I have left over curd, which I probably will, what other recipes would you recommend that I could use the left over raspberry curd with? Thanks for all of your amazing recipes.
Hello Betsy,
I would like to know why you used only eggs yolks for raspberry curd but whole eggs for lemon curd? Is it right? Thanks for your answer. -
Do you think this would work as a filling for a a white chocolate cake?
Why do they taste so much like butter? would it be beacause I used salted butter instead?
Can you fill the cupcakes a day before you serve them? If so do you need to refrigerate them?

Taxidermist Jobs
Have you seen a dead animal preserved? Maybe you've seen a swordfish on your uncle's mantle, a mammoth grizzly bear towering over you in a museum, or an elk head on the wall of a restaurant. Sometimes you might even think the animal is still alive, but it's not. Do you know how these animals get mounted? A taxidermist does it.
Taxidermists love working with animals and have a solid understanding of nature.
As long as you aren't totally grossed out by exploding eyeballs, gloppy sticky blood, brains oozing onto your shoes, or fat dribbling down onto the floor then consider taxidermy as a career. That's right - you'll be elbows deep in animals, so get ready to make a mess. Taxidermists need to work in a place that can get messy and be cleaned easily. They often work from home.
Most taxidermists start this job as a hobby. Begin with a mail order kit, then develop your talent with the neighbor's latest deer kill. Remember that experience is the key to success. You can gain experience by apprenticing or attending taxidermy schools. While officially no formal education is required, there are a number of good taxidermy schools all over the world. Usually they are licensed and bonded and last from 2 to 12 weeks or more. They include academics and lab work and can cost in the thousands of dollars. However you go about learning this craft you will have to obtain a state-issued license to practice taxidermy.
A taxidermist's daily grind is cool. You meet with a client, usually a hunter, and discuss the animal, positions, fees, and timelines. You may mount ducks, deer, fish, bears, shark, elk, moose, goats, turtles, alligators or even people's pets. There are many techniques and methods to preserve and mount animals, but overall each job is similar. You'll be using knives, scalpels, and chemicals. You clean it, skin it, remove meat, bones, and fat, measure body size, wash away blood and grease, dry it, preserve it, and create an artificial body. This process can take days.
Making the animal look lifelike is the true taxidermy talent. It means using glass eyes, matching fur colors, repairing damage, and creating correctly proportioned bodies. It's a challenge because every animal is different. Your work is your portfolio and that's what will bring in loyal, repeat customers.
The best customers are private individuals or museums. As you can imagine, hunters make up a huge percentage of the work. Most taxidermists are hunters too.
Taxidermists make on average $41,000 per year. This depends on location and talent. Almost always taxidermists make their money per mount. Mounts can be around $500 for a deer head to several thousand dollars for a brown bear. The more work you do, the more money you make.
No matter what you are working with - fins, feathers, or fur - taxidermy is a unique job. Every time you prepare, stuff, and mount an animal you'll make money, but you'll also make someone's day.

Current Time
Concierge.com's insider take:
Children are neither seen nor heard at Deseo, chic older sister to the Hotel Básico. The 15 rooms here are super-hip white on white, wherein the only adornments are cascading white window drapes and clotheslines playfully hung with flip-flops, sun hats, and bananas to get you in a beachy mood. The vibe is romantic and sensual; a couple of the suites have bathtubs right next to the beds, and all rooms come with fluffy white duvets and pillows that invite lounging. The most-private rooms have hammocks strung across skinny balconies for afternoon lazing. King-size padded chaises beneath white gauze canopies allow privacy beside the pool, where sunlight filters through wood-slat rails. Deseo feels more sophisticated and relaxed than the Básico, though Muzak-y electronica plays everywhere (you can switch it off in your room, but it never really leaves you alone). It's a welcome escape from the jumble of T-shirt shops and tequila-soused tourists that pack Playa del Carmen's main thoroughfares.—Maribeth Mellin

Joss Whedon's "S.H.I.E.L.D." Show Gets New Name, Cast Member
By Dan Casey on April 8, 2013
While the rest of us are busy tinkering away on our Life Model Decoys to send to do our day jobs so we can stay home and watch Joss Whedon's forthcoming S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series, the folks behind the series are hard at work themselves and now have a new name and a Whedonverse cast member to show for it. Because Marvel's titles are never long enough, the show is now officially known as Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which rolls off the tongue like a Ron Burgundy vocal warm-up. This news came alongside the release of the official synopsis, which sheds some light on the band of ragtag, ultra-elite misfits that the now-breathing Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) will guide through each week's A, B and C plots:
Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) returns to the worldwide law enforcement organization S.H.I.E.L.D. He puts together a small, highly trained, team of Agents to tackle the cases that haven't been classified yet, the new, the strange and the unknown. That team consists of straight arrow Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton), an expert in combat and espionage; pilot and martial artist Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen); and brilliant if socially awkward scientists Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge). They'll be joined by civilian new recruit and computer hacker Skye (Chloe Bennet).
Although casting has, for the most part, avoided dipping into the Whedonverse talent pool (we're still hoping for Fran Kranz as MODOK), TV Line has reported that Angel actor J. August Richards will join the cast in a "super top-secret role." Well, he's a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., presumably, so the secrecy makes sense. Here's hoping that we'll finally see David Mitchell, a.k.a. Human Top, on national television. Seems plausible, right?
Charles Gunn back on TV? It's about time.
The Human Top's a good guess, but I'm leaning more towards Nick Fury, Jr. They already introduced the character in the comics in order to have a black Nick Fury in the main 616 universe–and comic Junior's best buddy was a guy who turned out to be Phil Coulson.
Still hoping for Fran Kranz, but can't get his name right…
I love Whedon. Deeply. But seriously? Majority white cast, with the two east-asian actors playing the martial artist and the computer hacker? I was holding out faint hope that the song in "Commentary!" lampshading his own shitty racialised casting choices would translate into a change in the future. Oh well.
I'm hoping that we get to see Jimmy Woo and/or The Agents of Atlas in this series.
I hope this show turns out to be a great as the movies ,and not a lame attempt to capitalize on the popularity of the movies .
Joss Whedon is given a television show with more money and confidence than ever before. Have faith.
Great to see Whedon cast some newbies! Holla at me Josh
Why is he suppose to stay away from former Buffyverse characters? They are all fantastic and I would love everyone of them back. Except for David Boreanaz because I love him in Bones. I am more than excited for this show. It's about time we get him back on the small screen.
[…] Amidst the flurry of news regarding pilot pick-ups, cancellations and unexpected steps closer to six seasons and a movie, one title stood out, especially to Marvel fans: Disney's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ABC has now officially ordered the hotly anticipated Joss Whedon-directed pilot to series, laying to rest any unease over whether the pilot would suffer the fate of so many Chitauri. To sweeten the deal, ABC will allow eager agents to get their first look at the series by airing a preview during Sunday's season finale of Once Upon a Time. I don't know about you guys, but this is the best news I've heard since J. August Richards joined the cast. […]

By Deann S. from Sharpsburg, GA on May 05, 2011
I bought 3 of these lights for over my island. They are simple and beautiful. Cast a nice warm glow. I looked at similar ones much more expensive and I am so glad I took a chance on these. They look very expensive just the same! I love them...

Mini pendant lighting
By Susan M. from Seattle, WA on Dec 31, 2013
I shopped online for months before finally choosing three of these lights to replace ones that I have over my kitchen island. I am extremely pleased with the look. They add a warmth that my others did not have. The description online was exact and very helpful. I had them installed professionally so cannot speak to the ease of installation. Also very easy to change light bulbs. Quick delivery, too.

Review of P1186 - Preston Mini Pendant
By Robert W. from Rockwall, TX on May 30, 2011
Lights look great. We really like the color and the solid rod as opposed to a dust magnet chain. We did have to get a new glass shade as the original had a small defect and was slightly irregular making it crooked when attached to the fixture. Something that should have been caught in a quality inspection but Murray Feiss was very prompt in sending out a replacement. Overall very happy with the product.

Jeffrey H. Sloman, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, and John V. Gillies, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Miami Field Office, announce that today's sentencing of defendants Danny Flores and Rolando Alfonso in connection with their participation in a bank fraud scheme that resulted in the approval and disbursement of two fraudulent home equity loans, totaling $1 million. U.S. District Court Judge Allan Gold sentenced each defendant to 45 months' imprisonment, to be followed by 5 years of supervised release. Judge Gold also ordered the payment of $796,701.65 in restitution.
The defendants were indicted for their respective roles in obtaining two fraudulent loans, one from Bank of America and the other from Wachovia, each in the amount of $500,000. Flores and Alfonso prepared two fraudulent loan applications, one for Bank of America and one for Wachovia, using the stolen identification information of another defendant's mother-in-law. Each loan application listed the mother-in-law as the purported borrower and a home owned by the mother-in-law as the collateral. Flores and Alfonso also obtained false documents in the name of the purported borrower, including tax returns, to support the fraudulent loan applications.
Flores and Alfonso submitted a fraudulent application to a corrupt loan officer at each victim bank. Both loan officers were co-defendants in this case and were previously sentenced to 22 months and 12 months (6 months of imprisonment and 6 months of home confinement), respectively. After the loan at each bank was approved and the funds were made available, the defendants disbursed and shared the fraudulently obtained loan proceeds, receiving in total approximately $800,000.
Flores and Alfonso pled guilty to conspiracy to commit bank fraud and identity theft, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 1349 and 1028A.
Mr. Sloman commended the investigative efforts of the Federal-State Mortgage Fraud Strike Force with special commendation to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Joseph B. Shumofsky.

Apollo (APOL) Income Drops 61%, Yet Shares Surge
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Apollo Group (APOL - Get Report), the for-profit parent company of University of Phoenix, surged in trading after reporting fourth-quarter diluted earnings per share of 19 cents on revenue 15.2% lower than a year earlier to $845 million. Operating income dropped 61.3% to $34.7 million from $89.6 million a year earlier.
Excluding special items such as restructuring, the company earned 55 cents a share, 30 cents higher than estimates provided by analysts surveyed by Yahoo! Finance.
Shares are up 25.3% to $26.24, leading the S&P 500 which is down 0.48%.
Waning enrollments continued to bedevil Apollo's profitability, with fourth-quarter degreed enrollments to University of Phoenix dropping 18.1% to 269,000 students. New degreed enrollments fell 22.3% to 41,000.
For full-year 2013, the Phoenix-based company recorded net revenue of $3.7 billion, 14% lower than $3.7 billion in 2012, and a 36.8% drop in operating income to $4247.4 million. "Fiscal Year 2013 brought challenges and opportunities for Apollo Group," said CEO Greg Cappelli. "We set out this year this year to differentiate University of Phoenix, diversify Apollo Group and build a more efficient organization. We have made meaningful progress in each of these areas." For the upcoming 2014 fiscal year, Apollo forecasts operating income between $375 million to $450 million on revenue of $2.95 billion to $3.05 billion. The figures well-surpassed the expectations of analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters, who predicted operating income of $386 million on $3.21 billion on revenue. The company also announced it is making 500 non-faculty employees redundant this week so as to put the company in good stead for an improved 2014. Apollo owns four tertiary institutions, University of Phoenix the most well-known, and numerous other high-school and trade-based programs and organizations. The company plans to change its name to Apollo Education Group effective mid-November to better reflect operations. TheStreet Ratings team rates Apollo Group as a Hold with a ratings score of C. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate Apollo Group (APOL) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed --some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, attractive valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including feeble growth in the company's earnings per share, deteriorating net income and a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself."- You can view the full analysis from the report here: APOL Ratings Report

I started off the summer with good intentions. Write my novel, start another one, work X number of hours per day. And for a few weeks, I did just that. But now it's mid-summer and my house is a wreck, my writing schedule is atrocious, and I feel like throwing in the towel. I applaud those of you who have multiple children. It's not easy to juggle creative tasks with half your mind occupied with parenting. Even if your child is busy in the other room, you're still keeping your ears open for signs of trouble. Constant interruptions don't help either! Fortunately, I think we are just about back into a good routine. (As much as possible with children around!)
Here is what we've been doing to stay on track.
1. Let the housework go.
During the summer, I pick up, make the beds, wipe down the bathroom, wipe the kitchen counters, take out the trash, sweep/vacuum and other little things to keep it from getting nasty. I pretty much let everything else go. My husband does the dishes, we take turns with the laundry, and we keep meals simple.
2. Keep a realistic goal.
It's unrealistc for me to work 8 hours per day during the summer and be the kind of parent I want to be. Having no goal, however, means it's very difficult to keep any kind of accountability. I try to work three solid hours on projects and fit in some reading about publishing, marketing, or improving writing skills throughout the day. It doesn't feel like enough, so it is good practice for prioritizing and keeping organized.
3. Get up early or go to bed late.
I am fortunate. My child is a night owl and I am a morning person, so during the summer I let her go to bed late. She usually sleeps for an hour or two while I work.
4. Unless you're a single parent, they're someone else's kids, too.
On the weekends, I usually take a chunk of time to write while my husband is in charge. We both need time to relax, too, so we make sure that happens, but we also understand that summer is kind of crazy. I am very fortunate to have a partner who is really a partner. Not everyone has that. If you don't or if you need more time and if you can afford it, hire a mother's helper to watch your kids while you work in the next room.
5. Let them entertain themselves!
When everyone is awake and I am still trying to work, I let my daughter play with my tablet. She only gets to use it when we are in the car or when I am working so it keeps her entertained for a long time. I also let her play office with me sometimes. We'll both work on our office things. If I feel she's had enough screen time and I am doing something that requires a lot of concentration, I just tell her to find something to do. She likes art so she usually does art while I write.
How do you manage children in the summer? How do you get back on track if you get derailed?

Gabz in 2013
Background information | |
Birth name | Gabrielle Gardiner |
Born | Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England |
11 December 1998
Genres | Pop |
Occupation(s) | Singer-songwriter |
Instruments | Vocals, piano |
Years active | 2013–present |
Labels | Sony, Syco[citation needed] |
Gabrielle "Gabz" Gardiner (born 11 December 1998) is a British singer-songwriter from Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England, who reached the final of the seventh series of Britain's Got Talent in 2013. She released her debut single "Lighters" on 30 June 2013 via Sony Music, which peaked at No. 6 on the UK Singles Chart.
Music career[edit]
2013: Britain's Got Talent[edit]
In her audition, screened on 26 May, Gabz Gardiner performed an original composition called "The One". When asked beforehand what the song was about, she stated that it was about "losing the love of your life". She received praise from the judges, with Simon Cowell stating, "I absolutely loved that. I really did. I think that's a cute little song, great chorus, you know, produced properly that song... you may have something there." Gabz received four "yes" votes from the judges and was put through to the next round, and subsequently the semi-finals. In the semi-final on 28 May, she performed the song again, this time with a backing track and choir. Amanda Holden likened Gabz to a young Lily Allen. Walliams urged Cowell to make the song available for purchase, predicting it could make number one in the UK Singles Chart.[1][2] Gabz landed in the top three of the night, and with comedian Jack Carroll already through, it was down to the judges to choose between Gardiner and Irish singers Jack and Cormac. All four judges voted for Gabz, thus sending her through to the final.
It was revealed that it was Gabz's idea to audition, and that her father almost refused to let her audition because of her bad attitude at home, and required her to get better, and eventually let her after the deadline was extended.[3] She also stated that "It would be amazing to win – I'm not expecting it – I don't think I will. I'm really really happy to get this far, I can't believe it, it's great, I'm just hoping I can get a record deal or something so I can show more of my songs – I've written over 30 now." Her hometown also saw support, with banners supplied by businesses around her hometown.[4]
In the final, Gabz performed a mash-up of a new song "Lie There" and "The One". She finished in seventh place with 3.6% of the vote.[citation needed]
2013–present: Singles[edit]

Bolognese School
The Bolognese School or the School of Bologna of painting flourished in Bologna, the capital of Emilia Romagna, between the 16th and 17th centuries in Italy, and rivalled Florence and Rome as the center of painting. Its most important representatives include the Carracci family, including Ludovico, and his two cousins, the brothers Agostino and Annibale. Later, it included other prominent Baroque painters: Domenichino and Lanfranco, active mostly in Rome, eventually Guercino and Guido Reni, and Accademia degli Incamminati in Bologna, which was run by Lodovico Carracci. Certain artistic conventions, which over time became traditionalist, had been developed in Rome during the first decades of the 16th century. As time passed, some artists sought new approaches to their work that no longer reflected only the Roman manner. The Carracci studio sought innovation or invention, seeking new ways to break away from traditional modes of painting while continuing to look for inspiration from their literary contemporaries; the studio formulated a style that was distinguished from the recognized manners of art in their time. This style was seen as both systematic and imitative, borrowing particular motifs from the past Roman schools of art and innovating a modernistic approach.

Should YaST Become Independent?
Californian Ben Kevan, server administrator for Linux and VMware, ponders the future of YaST in his blog.
Kevan's blog includes a number of screen shots from a current YaST build. He feels that YaST from openSUSE is now ready to be ported to other systems: "I would have to say it is far from 'Yet another Setup Tool'. I consider it 'The ultimate Setup Tool'."
Kevan ultimately presents the notion of forking YaST to other distributions, based on an idea openSUSE community manager Joe Brockmeier offered last Friday in his blog. Brockmeier wondered if YaST should be released separately from openSUSE, an idea he in turn inherited from Stanislav Visnovsky, who asserts in his own blog that "YaST is a tool that can be used across distributions and there are people interested in this to happen."
Brockmeier cites several arguments in favor of the separation. "Linux, after all these years, still lacks a good, comprehensive, and cross-distro system management tool." Also, YaST releases would get more attention by being independent. Not least of all, more users would test the product, thus providing better chances for improvement.
Talk to Novell!!
It's like asking Microsoft to go open source.
Won't be happening anytime soon :S -
Should YaST be Ported to Other Distros
Yes - absolutely. I've been waiting since SuSE 7.3 for YaST to become universally ported. It is the best in the west as for my experiences...not saying there are other installers for Linux that do very good jobs - but, YaST is by far the best. It's most advanced features that allow you to save the day with it's uses of LVM installation and selecting or deselecting softwares is the most reliable. You can click things to NOT be installed and make them "NEVER" be installed and YaST takes care of that even on updates whereas other distro installers may allow selective installation to begin with - YaST is the only one as of now that I have seen that actually preserves the initial installation and upon updating - only updates what you initially installed and doesn't go ahead install a complete new load of "ALL" the programs of the distro. This is totally important in setting up servers - just in case you need to know why I object to my original install being weighted down with programs and games that should never even be on the computer.

I have been on the road for few days but now I am settled down in Valencia and what is even better – online !
It is a beautiful set up over here. Nice (but hot) weather, the beach right next to the track, lots of bars and restaurants 2 minutes from the track entrance, vino, cerveza, tapas, perfect. And if what was happening today is to be any indication of what to expect this weekend, we may also have an exciting race.
My seat is near the bridge and it was interesting to watch how different drivers were taking different lines in that corner. But by the end of practice 2 they all used the same racing line . Some were getting too close to the wall and I saw at least one car (not sure who was it) touching the wall.
We shared a cab with Brazilian journo this morning. He told us that when he walked the track yesterday, there was a talk that some teams were concerned the gap between the track and the bridge may cause some tyre deflations. Let's hope that is not the case as that would be a really dangerous place for a car getting out of control.
We are in Spain and if I were about to forget about that, the crowd reminds me every time Fernando Alonso passes by . The atmosphere is simply awesome here and this is still only Friday …
For the record, Sebastian Vettel was quickest in practice 1, Kimi Raikkonen in practice 2. Surprisingly Fernando Alonso was 2nd and Jenson Button 3rd in P2 … Overall, Ferraris seem to have an upper hand over McLarens so far but that may change tomorrow. The commentators here on track predict the lap times to drop further to 1:36s from top 1:39s today. A lot can still happen.
And here are some pictures of the beach from the race track:
I will be back tomorrow with brief Saturday report.
Stay tuned for my photo gallery – coming after the race weekend !

PR: What Not to Do: Reading Like a Time Capsule
- Posted by Johanna on September 6, 2009 at 8:02 am
- Category: Comic News
I got an email about a new anthology of alternative comics from the UK. Reading through it, I started having flashbacks to last decade:
Just a short email to let you know that Solipsistic Pop — an anthology that features the very best in alternative UK comics — has launched its website with a manifesto that states the intentions of a new wave of comic artists taking over the UK alternative scene.
There was more about the anthology, due in November 2009, but I'm more interested here in looking at the impression the website gives, especially that first post.
A manifesto? Really? Acolytes of Warren Ellis, are we? That just screams "too young to be so bitter" to me. The 90s were about the manifesto and the tough political stance; now, that approach seems tired and naive to me. You want to convince me of something? Do the work and show me what you're capable of. Anyone can spew declarations, but few can create art to live up to them.
When I read the manifesto, I was even more put off. It was full of negative statements. We don't do this, we don't do that, we reject this and that… I found it the wrong tone to take in starting a new effort. I want more energy put into what you are than in telling me what's wrong with what other people are doing. Defining yourself in terms of absence — we aren't this — is tricky and often unsatisfying.
Combine that with talk of building "a new paradigm… a new wave" and I'm going to write you off as immature and more interested in mimicking the successes of others who come before you than in showing me what makes *you* unique. I've seen all of this many times before, usually from groups who never end up putting out anything of substance before they tire themselves out and wander away. I'm wondering now if this is some kind of parody, a joke put out to see how many people will be taken in. I don't think that's the response you want to your new project launch.

September 6, 2009 at 5:50 PM"The 90s were about the manifesto and the tough political stance; now, that approach seems tired and naive to me."
I don't know that I agree that manifestos are particularly associated with the 1990s, or indeed to any particular time period. There are plenty of folks who write 'em all the time, in every time.
I do think that manifestos are typical of youthful rebellion in any era. And, Johanna, you and I and many many others are probably now old enough to have seen many proclamations of youthful passionate intensity fizzle out. But I'm trying not to let that make me so jaded as to automatically think the next one will also fizzle. But it's really hard sometimes…
"You want to convince me of something? Do the work and show me what you're capable of. Anyone can spew declarations, but few can create art to live up to them."
I agree wholeheartedly. As the Beatles said, "You say you want a revolution…we'd all love to see the plan."
- Johanna Says:
September 6, 2009 at 8:08 PMYou're right, Ali, to remind me not to be so jaded. And what a timely quote for this week!
- Heidi M. Says:
September 7, 2009 at 10:09 AMEh, they're young and full of fire. That is how it is supposed to be. I would rather read something passionate then another bland marketing campaign.
- Tom Humberstone Says:
September 7, 2009 at 2:23 PMHi Johanna, thank you for the mention on your blog.
I'd like to agree with Ali that I don't particularly see politics or manifestos as time sensitive. If having a strong political stance on anything is seen as being "90s" then I think that is rather sad.
I'd also like to respectfully disagree with your assertion that one cannot define themselves by an absence of something. Any use of the word "reject" in our manifesto is in reference to abandoning rules, restrictions and preconceived notions of what comics were, are and can be. It was written to be inspiring. Freeing.
A cursory glance at any contributor's website should also demonstrate that we are all productive and diligent creators. Many, myself included, with a large collection of self-published works already behind us.
We will be uploading previews of work specific to the anthology over the next couple of months – leading up to our book launch in November.
Hopefully, during this time, you will give us the benefit of the doubt and decide whether our art lives up to our words. I'd like to think we may surprise you.
I'll be happy to send you a review copy of the book when it is released should you wish.
Take care, and thanks again for the plug!

Ashley 'Bottles It' And Sticks With His Puppet!
Alan Pardew's job at Newcastle United is safe - despite the club being threatened with relegation until the last week of the campaign.
Mike Ashley conducted an exhaustive inquest into the club's disappointing Premier League campaign this week, and Pardew, now the second-longest serving top flight manager, faced a tough questioning.
But it seems Ashley got the answers he wanted from the 51-year-old, who has come under fire from frustrated supporters in recent weeks.
SportMail understands that Ashley will keep faith with Pardew, although that certainly does not go down too well with supporters, if out NU-MAD message board is anything to go by.
United have made no public comment on the speculation over the future of Pardew, who signed an eight-year contract in September.
However, it seems Pardew is a better option to Ashley than someone who would challenge the owners opinion.
Pardew is keen to bring "two or three" players to St James's Park to strengthen a squad which was found wanting last season in the face of an injury crisis.
But his top target - Andy Carroll - is off the list, according to reports this morning.
Ashley doesn't want him back, as Carroll was one of the infamous "clique" that voiced an opinion against the Newcastle owner.
Nobody - but NOBODY - has an opinion when Ashley is about!
