Big News at the Palette Art League!!!
Inside the Palette Art League Gallery, we have two art studios available for rent. What better place could there be to get away from it all, relax and create your Art, surrounded by the art of so many other fine artists in the area.
If you are tired of trying to make room for your art in your home.
If you are tired of constant interruptions at home while trying to work, it is time to treat yourself to your own art studio space.
These two spots won't last long!

I have been reading about the Sciton ClearScan laser for removal of broken capillaries and sunspots. I have some small broken red capillaries on my cheeks, and some larger blue veins around my eyes that I would like to get rid of. Would ClearScan be a good choice?
Sciton ClearScan for Broken Capillaries and Veins on Face?
Doctor Answers 1
I must admi\t that I do not know much about the Sciton-but for small capillaries on the face I think the pulsed dye laser such as the Candela Perfecta is the best.Be careful treating any veins around the eyes. Many eye doctors think this is risky.

Kaart & Route
When you arrive to Albufeira from highway IP1(coming from airport) you will come to roundabout. Turn left. Follow, you will pass 2 roundabouts (watches and worms). When you come to a 3rd roundabout where a globe is, turn left. Follow and turn right on 4th road.
On that cross road there is as well our sign 'Choromar'. Drive road until it ends, turn left and continues still about 30 meters and you will see our reception (a roman style entrance). Please realise that we have several blocks so you can see already earlier Choromar flags, but there is no reception in these blocks.

Stayed here for about a week here around labor day of 2012. Although not luxurious, the rooms were super clean and the owner was very friendly and conscientious. The rooms was very spacious also. They have free parking too and I never had trouble finding a space. The main downside was that if you plan to walk to anywhere except the Rose Garden or the Convention Center, it's a pretty long walk. They did just open a streetcar system that runs right in front of the property though. It's located right next to a pretty busy road also and my wife thought it was a little noisy at night but I didn't think so.

Camaro ZL1 SAE Rated @ 580 hp Officially
September 9th, 2011
The supercharged V8 in the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is rated at 580 hp.
The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 will not be anywhere near as rare as its 1969 namesake when it arrives during the first quarter of next year, but the most powerful production Camaro to date should deliver performance more than worthy of its model designation.
Camaro engineers on Thursday offered media members a preview of the upcoming Ford Mustang Shelby GT500-fighter, and the tale of the tape is impressive, especially in terms of grunt: The 6.2-liter, supercharged LSA V8 will make 580 hp at 6,000 rpm, and 556 lb-ft of torque at 4,200 rpm, besting Chevrolet's original targets for the engine's output and bettering its efficiency in Cadillac's CTS-V by 24 hp and 5 lb-ft.

Chevy Using Pink Camaro NASCAR Pace Car for Safety and Charity
September 4th, 2011
Chevrolet plans to do more with its NASCAR Camaro pace car than merely slow the field down. For the next two races at Atlanta Motor Speedway and Richmond International Raceway, a Camaro doused in pink to support breast cancer research will lead the field. As if the hue weren't enough, when the safety car comes out, Chevrolet will donate $200 per lap to the American Cancer Society.

The review will consider its acquisition organizations, its workforce and its policies and processes
Army Secretary John McHugh commissioned a study to examine a full range of acquisition practices. The review will look at the service's acquisition organizations and its workforce, as well as its policies and processes. It also will analyze important practices from drawing up a contract's requirements to managing acquisition programs.

Army officials said the primary goal is to provide a plan for near-term actions that will improve the service's acquisition process. The analysis will build on reforms from the Weapons System Acquisition Reform Act, which became law in 2009, officials said.
The independent panel that conducts the review will be lead by Gil Decker, former Army acquisition executive, and retired Army Gen. Lou Wagner, who once served as the Army deputy chief of staff for research, development and acquisition and later as commander of the Army Materiel Command.

Sorry, ladies: Adam Levine is now a married man! The Maroon 5 frontman married Behati Brinsloo Saturday night (July 19) at a private ceremony at Flora Farms in Los Cabos, Mexico.
On Friday, MTV premiered a new ballad by Jesse McCartney titled 'The Other Guy.' The song is McCartney's second track that has been released off his upcoming 'In Technicolor' album, due out on July 22.

Watch "Weird Al" Yankovic perform 'Tacky' in one continuous shot on 'Conan'. Super impressive!
A month after legendary radio host Casey Kasem passed away on June 15, his body still remains unburied, according to a publicist for Kasem's daughter.
Just because you haven't heard from 'Weird Al' Yankovic in a while doesn't mean that he's been gone. He's just been biding his time between releases, as per his master plan.
As part of his "eight videos in eight days" promise, Weird Al Yankovic has unveiled the video for his second parody off his new 'Mandatory Fun' album, which was released today.
'Word Crimes' takes on Robin Thicke's 2013 hit 'Blurred Lines,' and is music to the ears of those who are fed up with a new generation of kids communicating with texting shortcuts and emojis in place of proper English.
Weird Al has released the first video from his album 'Mandatory Fun.' The song 'Tacky' tackles the Pharrell mega-hit 'Happy,' and features Aisha Tyler, Eric Stonestreet and Jack Black.

Did Alec Baldwin Get Shia LaBeouf Fired From Broadway?
Shia LaBeouf suggests he was fired from Orphans
Picture: Shia LaBeouf - New York premiere of 'The Company You Keep' shown at The Museum of Modern Art Fe - New York City, United States...
Shia LaBeouf's exit from broadway was pretty emphatic; it had artistic differences, definitions of what being a man is and released e-mails. It was, as exits go, pretty entertaining. And the fun doesn't stop with LeBeouf and Alex Baldwin's war of words.
Perhaps the reason it's so entertaining is because it's not quite a war of words. One minute they're praising each other, the next they're slagging each other off. The latest blow comes form Shia, speaking to David Letterman. "I'm pretty passionate and impulsive, and he's a very passionate individual as well. And I think that impulsiveness and that passion makes for, ya know, some fireworks. 'Me and Alec had tension as men. Not as artists but as men," explained LeBeouf, before Letterman suggested: 'Alec went to the producers and said, "I can't take it another day. Fire him."' Shia replied: "I think that might've been what happened." But did Balwin really get his co-star the sack? We'll probably never know.
Baldwin hasn't exactly been silent on the matter. Talking about one of Shia's tweets which read "The theatre belongs not to the great but to the brash", Alec said: "I can tell you that, in all honesty, I don't think he's in a good position to be giving interpretations of what the theatre is and what the theatre isn't. I mean, he was never in the theatre. He came into a rehearsal room for six or seven days."
What the Orphans poster would have looked like...

Adria Alum opening Piripi in the Gables
San Sebastián cuisine comes to Merrick Park
El Bulli may be history, but a piece of it is heading to Coral Gables in October or November via Piripi, 320 San Lorenzo Ave. in The Village of Merrick Park, featuring the cuisine of TV actress turned Spanish-Basque chef Najat Kaanache.
Born and raised in San Sebastián, Kaanache has a culinary CV that includes stints at Noma, French Laundry, Per Se and Alinea alongside Rene Redzepi, Thomas Keller, Grant Achatz, Heston Blumenthal and Martin Berasetegui. She spent the final two years at El Bulli working directly with Ferran Adria until the restaurant closed.
Kaanache, says a rep, "will moderate the molecular, presenting homespun, authentic Spanish cuisine" with heavy emphasis on seafood, as well as a selection of "lively" tapas and paellas.
The central bar will feature Spanish wines by the glass as well as "gin tonics."
The restaurant will also feature an intimate, semi-private chef's dining room, delivering "fanciful" and "immersive" dining experiences for 10-12 special guests.
The well-connected chef has tapped into her vast network of colleagues from the world's finest restaurants, with a wine list created by Spanish sommelier Ferran Centelles, who spent 13 years at El Bulli.
"You are only as talented as those with whom you surround yourself. In hospitality it is all about the team," she says.
The restaurant, according to owner Gus Abalo, is named after Spanish slang for "happy", "tipsy" or "feeling a little bit buzzed."
Sounds buzzworthy for sure.

I am OutraGE at cryptic and STO. READ
So i boughts Star trek online from steam and cant even downlod. Then when im finally download the servers are down like 4 hours! So i finally get to play and the game looks terrible like its 1999 or something wtf.
Tutorial was also way to hard i didnt know what to do. I kept killing Borgs for like 5 minutes straight until i died twice before i realized i could run past them all. Then i finally finish and cant find my ship until i press a button that says beam to ship? How was i supposed to know what beam to ship means? And then im stuck outside the earth place like 10 minutes and cant find out what to do cause i dont know how to ask questions in OOC in this game cause theres no OOC! Finally i figure it out and then BAM severs down again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At this point im so mad im considering cancelling my sub so cryptic knows im serius angry and maybe even sue for my money back and time wasted not to mention the anguish ive been through which is also sueable.
Tutorial hard? I am not sure what I missed but I think it was actually too easy...should be skipable..

The key piece is the book of Beatus which is believed to have been created in about the year 786 and depicts the book of revelations in particular the Apocalypse.

From what I can tell from seed it likes to be hot, so I might just have to be hopeful the GC sells it again next year ready grown! I've never seen it before until this year! I especially love the bright bright pink!
We have all the veg we could ever need rb, the local GC was selling all it's seeds for 50p each! We got absolutely tonnes! Thank you for the offer though Aiming to get a nice trellis for the shed and grow blue morning glory over the wall. Heaven know how long it'll take to establish. I'd like to stay there long term though, that's for sure!
I think I rightly assume I'm quite shabby chic in my design tastes, much to the OHs distaste, he thinks it too twee and girly and despises my obsession with Cath Kidston... I'll see if I have any photos of my cutesy things outside of the garden...
This was a horrid dark mdf type magazine rack side table thing, now it's this lovely colour and keeps my GW mags safe and has my record player living on top of it. I've also got typewriters and a kitchen table to match, the chairs are the same colour, and the table is crisp white. Not sure I've got a photo of that. The seats have strawberries on them, but they need reupholstering.
Garden is definitely more shabby than chic currently!
Thanks Bekkie, will try to do that, will they need lifting and replanting into new soil immediately? Is that a terrifically stupid question to ask?
Sorry for hijacking the thread somewhat
This has happened to ours and we wont be growing in a pot again.
Being in a part it's hard to regulate watering, with the varying temperatures of late they will contribute to split fruit. In fact most of our unripe fruits have split, and additionally got rotten bottoms due to blossom end rot.
Will give you more detailed info.
I have no intention on leaving him any plants, even if they don't survive transporting to a pot they'll make compost and nice cut flowers, what should I do with bulbs that are still flowering, are they a sacrifice we'll have to make?
New garden is at the back of the house with a shed no less! Every cloud!
Is it terribly gharish of me to adore this crazy looking plant? I bought a load reduced the other day to cheer up my very spring orientated young garden, and I think they are fantastic. They don't seem to available in seed form in the shops, though saw it online on T&M, have others grown from seed?
I can envision it with red hot pokers and small marigolds at the back of the new garden.
I don't have photos, but the dahlias I grew from seed have absolutely taken over our tiny borders, they're blimming huge and blooming everywhere!
Well, I suppose this ties in to why I've not been here at all lately. I've been given the great task of finding somewhere new to live after the landlord decided it was time to sell up and uproot us from our home, and the little garden we loved and put a lot of money into.... Hit us hard, and was time consuming finding somewhere to live that was affordable, within proximity to the allotment, which sadly fell the the wasteside (is that the right turn of phrase) the past month and is just a bunch of weeds, and our potatoes were rotten, broad beans ruined with rust... ho hum.
Long story short we've hopefully secured somewhere for the end of next month, it just feels so unfair to leave where we love, and pay a fortune to go so he makes himself a sweet little profit... Business heh? I can't begrudge him selling his own property, but it hasn't half ruined the best time of the summer for me, sent my anxiety rocketing with strangers coming to the house every day to fix things we were promised would have been sorted when we moved in.
We'd waited a year for the damp to be fixed, we finally got it sorted, the next day he comes around to say sorry but he's selling. It's one way to make you feel worthless and undervalued isn't it?
No it's ok! I think we will just pull everything up that looks remotely weed-like. We left it for a week or so while we had some 'us' time away from gardening, and they've swamped the lettuces we had sewn, it won't take much to weed it all and sew some more and be a tad more vigilant! The front garden is pretty much taken up with broccoli in little pots too, so maybe we'll put them in there instead. The world is our oyster as they say!

The Nebraska Senate's legislative session has begun, and a compassionate medical marijuana program is on the table.
Sen. Tommy Garrett and three of his colleagues have introduced the Cannabis Compassion and Care Act. This bill, LB 643, would allow seriously ill patients to use, possess, and cultivate a limited amount of marijuana if they are recommended to do so by their doctors. It would also create a system of registered medical marijuana providers to ensure patients have safe and reliable access. If you are a resident of Nebraska and support compassionate medical marijuana laws, please email your state senator in support of this bill.
Unfortunately, legislation has also been introduced that would actually increase, not decrease, penalties for certain marijuana crimes. LB 326 would make possessing marijuana concentrates (or products made with them) a felony carrying up to five years in prison, a $10,000 fine, or both! This draconian proposal flies in the face of public support and science: the World Health Organization has concluded that marijuana use is not affected by the imposition of harsh penalties. If you're a Nebraskan, please contact your state senator to oppose this misguided proposal.
Meanwhile, Nebraska's former attorney general is also attempting to move marijuana policy backwards. Shortly before leaving office, then-Attorney General Jon Bruning joined the attorney general for Oklahoma and filed suit challenging Colorado's law that regulates and legalizes marijuana for adults. The suit asks the Supreme Court to strike down Colorado's law, claiming it is preempted (or trumped) by federal law. This suit is both an affront to states rights and a waste of taxpayer dollars.
Nebraska is one of the 19 states that fine, instead of jail, individuals found in possession of a small amount of cannabis. First offense possession of up to an ounce of marijuana is a civil infraction punishable under Nebraska law by a $300 fine (and a possible drug education course) instead of jail time, and is a citation as opposed to an arrest. Second offense possession of up to an ounce carries a $400 fine and up to five days in jail, and third offense possession is punishable by up to a week in jail and a fine of $500. Second and third offense possession are misdemeanors, but are only citable, and not arrestable, offenses. Even so, there were still 7,756 marijuana arrests and/or citations in 2012. Unfortunately, these arrests disproportionately affect minority communities. According to the ACLU, African Americans in Nebraska are nearly five times as likely to be arrested for marijuana possession as their white neighbors, despite similar use rates. You can write your state legislators to ask them to end marijuana prohibition in the state and replace it with a system that legalizes marijuana for adults 21 and older and regulates it like alcohol. This approach would take the lucrative product off the criminal market and create thousands of legitimate jobs and tens of millions of dollars in tax revenue. It would also allow police to focus on serious and violent crime.
You can learn more about Nebraska's marijuana penalties and enforcement by reading this report by Jon Gettman, Ph.D.

Balance Entertainment center- pictures!
Ok so I think I finally got this picture thing figured out. My questions are: does the wall look ok with chair on one side and bookshelf on the other? Is the bookshelf too much? I would like to put a clock over bookshelf and square picture over chair, is it too much? Also the little cat table will be replaced at some point but now it holds diapers and baby stuff and that is a must-keep for now. Thank you
What a beautiful entertainment center! And I love your wall color too. I like the chair in the one corner, but am not loving the bookcase in the other so much. Lined up as it is next to the entertainment center, it kinda strikes me as a "mini-me". ;-) I wonder how the bookcase would look turned and moved onto the short wall that's just to the left (as you're facing it)?
If there's enough room, I'd try the bc on the right with the chair overlapping the etc, enough so the kids can get to their books. Maybe a tall tree in the other corner, something with a weeping growth habit looks nice too.
I like to see things not so centered and lined up, so shifted what's on top of the etc. Also moved the etc off-center on the wall a bit.
So there it is in the corner, which I think looks better in person than it does in the picture. What do you think of that? I tried it on the side wall and it does not work. And no there is no where else in the room it can go, the only other option would be take it out of the room, but I like that the kids can have a place for some books in here. I added the kids chair for fun, maybe it gives the space a purpose, maybe it is too crowded? I plan to add more pictures and decorate the top two shelves.
So if you think it is workable there, what about the walls on either side of the entertainment center, I think they need something. Can I put a round clock on the wall next to the entertainment center(bookshelf side) or does that mess things up with the bookshelf diagonal? Would two similar pictures or sconces(sp?) or something be better?
I love Squirrel's mock-up, and think that would be an ideal look if it worked in person. If not, I do like the bookcase angled better than sitting flat on that wall. The kiddie chair does crowd the look a bit, but it's so adorable that I'd find it hard to resist leaving it there! I think a large round clock on the wall to the left of your entertainment center would look great. On the other side, I'd hang two prints, one on top of the other, to about the same height as your clock on the other side.
Wow squirell, thank you. Here is the wall next to that corner, it has the fireplace. Do you still think the bookcase and chair look ok there, not too much in one spot?
I am going to move the bookcase over there and take picture of all that but I need to get ds from bus stop first.
Hi there - been lurking for awhile but this is my first post. I'll give you my 2 cents :)
You have a beautiful entertainment center, but something is distracting me when I look at it. I figured it out - it's the DVDs and the books in two different places. Do you think you could combine them? Put the DVDs in the bookshelf and in their place, put some decor items? I think that would look more harmonious.
I think the angled bookshelf on the left looks fine, but I don't care for the kiddie chair. It's too dark and does look a little too cramped. Good luck! I love your paint too :)
Does the entertainment unit have to be centered on the wall? I would move it to the left more, if you can, perhaps just a couple of inches out of the left corner. Then you can use the right side area for the chair, a nice side table, thw bookcase behind, a standing lamp, etc.
A lovely family space!
Gumbosoup- I fought the battle of the DVDs when we got the unit. Dh just has so many and not sure where to put them yet, we'll see.
Squirrel- Awesome again, thanks. I love both but my favorite is the second with the two small pictures on one side and the big one over the chair.
And I had concluded that it is too tight in the corner to have the chair and bookshelf until I read what Les said about moving the entertainment center to the left. So I will have to give that some thought. I want the kids to get to the books(especially since we are trying to keep all other toys out of here, well stored out of here that is). Trying to have a nicely decorated family room in a house with three kids five and under is a balancing act!
Thanks for all the advice. I have many projects going on (at least going on in my head) right now and now that I finally actually tried to post a picture and acomplished it I will be back with more soon. Like the sectional couch we have been going back and forth on...
I say put a very small/thin lamp on the bookcase and get a nice oval mirror over the chair...to soften it up...
And come on....no one is going to photoshop the cat? LOL...I looooovvveee cats! Bonks to your cutie!
I do love the little kids' "mini-me" reading spot on the left, but you can see how much the etc is moved down to the left in the first virtuals by seeing its alignment with the ceiling fan : )
Almost forgot! I tried staining the mantel for your rich room colors -- one is lighter and one has corbel supports added. (Maybe paint that wall switch red.)
dd50-The gold wall over by the swing is two and a half inches too short for the bookcase :(
Yeah, I did miss that the entertainment center had been moved over in the virtual.
OMG squirrel I am going to get a huge "I told you so" when my dh sees what you did to the mantel. He has been saying since before we moved in that we should paint the mantel! I will say that the "stone" is not as dark in real life as it is in the picture and when I posted that picture I thought WOW it really looks stark white! He is on vacation this coming week and the the plan is for him to get whatever projects I want finished so he'll be thrilled to add that to his to-do list.

Whitney Houston - Cissy Houston Laments Lack Of Close Bond With Granddaughter Bobbi Kristina
Picture: George Merrill holding up a picture of late Whitney Houston, Kings of Songwriting session during the 2012 Slacker Canadian Music Week. Toronto, Canada...
Whitney Houston's mother Cissy fears she has little influence over the late superstar's daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown because she never got the chance to spend quality time with her grandchild as she was growing up.
Gospel singer Cissy Houston has been helping to take care of the 19 year old since Whitney's death in February (12), but she admits it has been tough to give Brown advice as they don't share a tight bond.
The 79 year old says, "When you have a teenager who's 19 years old, who loses her mother and really don't (sic) feel like she has to listen... you can't make anybody do anything. You try to suggest and you try to guide her and all that kinda business and that's exactly what we're trying to do, trying to guide her into a life that's going to make her better...
"A lot of times (I think) I might make a bigger difference, maybe, but I've never been around her that much because she was always on the road with her mum."
As a precaution, the executors of the tragic superstar's estate - her mum Cissy and her sister-in-law Marion Houston - recently filed a legal petition to restructure inheritance payments to Brown in a bid to protect her fortune.

Rossi & Rossi announces spectacular Tibetan work from acclaimed Bronze exhibition at TEFAF Maastricht
Book cover, Tibet, 13th century. Carved and painted wood, 26.5 x 74 cm.
A spectacular Tibetan bronze, one of the highlights of the recent Bronze exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, London , is among the Asian works of art to be exhibited by
Rossi & Rossi
at TEFAF Maastricht at the Maastricht Exhibition and Congress Centre (MECC), from 15 to 24 March 2013. Since they were last at TEFAF in 1995 Rossi & Rossi, specialists in classical Indian and Himalayan art, have expanded to become one of the leading dealers in contemporary Asian art and both aspects of their business classical and contemporary will be featured on their Stand no. 166.
Rossi & Rossi specialise in Tibetan works of all periods and outstanding amongst those to be seen at TEFAF will be the stunning eleven-headed Avalokitèshvara, dating from c. 1400 AD. Recently on loan to the highly-acclaimed Bronze exhibition at the Royal Academy , this extraordinary work has been in a European private collection for over forty years. With silver and copper inlay, semi-precious stones and polychrome, the sculpture is the largest recorded early Tibetan bronze of the iconic form of the deity, and certainly one of the most aesthetically successful. Despite the angry expressions with their bared silver teeth, the overall effect is one of calm and grace in this evocative image of Tibetan Buddhist culture. This cosmic form of Avalokitèshvara, with eleven towering heads and a fan of arms, is strongly emblematic of Tibet although the iconography originated in India . The Dalai Lama is believed to be the emanation of this bodhisattva who is the god evoked in the constant turning of prayer wheels and rosary beads with the Tibetan mantra Om Mani Padme Hum. This important work was also loaned to the exhibition Himalayas: An Aesthetic Adventure at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC in 2003/4. (price in the region of 6 million).
Also included in the Himalayas exhibition was the powerful Tibetan figure of copper alloy with gilding and pigment depicting Mañjushrî Yamântaka, c. 1000 AD. Yamântaka (Yamas Destructor or Yamas Enemy Yama meaning Death) is a wrathful assistant and manifestation of the bodhisattva Mañjushrî. This astonishingly energetic work is a triumphal manifestation of the god: Yamântakas five heads wear tiaras bearing the images of the five cosmic Buddhas while the upper one represents Mañjushrî. Other fine Tibetan works include a striking 13th century red and gold painted book cover carved with stylised dragons, and a 14th century Mandala of Bhutadamara from Central Tibet, distemper on cloth, an excellent example of its type.
An 18th century gilded wood figure of Mahâkâla from China or Tibet was formerly in the Speed Art Museum , Louisville , Kentucky . It still bears a label recording the gift to the Museum in 1971 by the Museum Collectors and was de-accessioned in 1996. Nâtha Mahâkâla (Great Black Lord) is a Buddhist version of the Hindu god Shiva in his manifestation as Kâla Bhàirava (Black Terrible), from whom this Buddhist protector of the dharma or natural law has borrowed most of his attributes, including the coronet of skulls, the necklace made of freshly-severed human heads, the bowl fashioned from a human skull and the rosary of skulls. Wearing a tiger skin and wielding a knife, the god is shown trampling the Hindu elephant-headed god Ganesha. Such wooden statues are found in Tibetan-Buddhist monasteries as far north as Ladàk, but hardly ever have this quality of modelling and are particularly rare because of the fragile nature of the material.
A rare and lyrical 14th century Nepalese group of Indra and Indrânî depicts the king of Hindu gods, venerated in the Nepal Valley , accompanied by his consort, a mother goddess personifying the gods energy and active power. It is cast in copper by the lost-wax process and fire-gilded by Newar artists under the Malla Dynasty. The heliotrope, or bloodstone, set in Indras single-crested crown is a symbol of courage and wisdom.
Rossi & Rossi will unveil at TEFAF a specially commissioned painting by Tibetan contemporary artist Tsherin Sherpa, whose first one-man show in London in 2012 was a sell-out. Conqueror (Gangnam Style) depicts a luminously coloured figure set against a sumptuous gold leaf background performing the notorious dance move while wearing a mask of Vajrabhairava, a wrathful form of Mañjushrî. (figs. 7a & 7b) Commenting on the work, Sherpa said: Vajrabhairava may seem like an odd pairing with an international pop culture sensation but we live in a disposable culture where anything long-lived is unusual. In Korea , the song exposed an ordinary mans attempt to integrate within the new materialism of his home. Gangnam Style is continually being transformed beyond this original meaning as it spreads globally, individuals have been re-transmitting the song using the lexicon from their own culture. The dances addictive beat and silly moves have allowed people the freedom to open up to discussions on otherwise serious subject matters while at the same time outwardly seeming to be light-hearted and fun. Contemporary artists have embraced this medium to discuss freedom of expression with the help of Amnesty International. In this Tibetan manifestation, the dance mirrors a new global consciousness originating from the desperation felt by self-immolating Tibetans.
Born in 1968 in Kathmandu , Nepal , Sherpa began studying traditional Tibetan thangka painting at the age of twelve under the skilful guidance of his father, Master Urgen Dorje, a renowned thangka artist from Ngyalam , Tibet . After years of intense training, Tsherin studied Mandarin and computer science in Taiwan before returning to Nepal to work with his father on numerous projects that included painting thangkas and monastery murals. He left for the USA in 1998 and now lives in California where he has worked as a thangka artist and as an instructor at several Buddhist centres.
