The Evidence of History
June 2014
This study presupposes to call as such the phenomenon triggering the spiritual and
physical beauty, which everyone touched by art is able to feel, from the point when
several components combine to form one whole. -Kokarova Vassilena
Several new/revisted paintings for a show, Devotions, 2014 inspire me to revise my artist statement. After an interesting dialogue with two friends yesterday, Hershel Weiss and Hector Contreras I want to express my sincere gratitude for their time and energy spent over several hours, after a delicious breakfast, talking about my new work. The Temple of Devotion; Spring, Summer, Falling Snow; The Temple of Many Sapphires and ten smaller text based images were birthed during a frenzy of activity in just a few weeks preceding the show. But each of the three large pieces has a longer history, another story or a pentimento -as the writer Lillian Hillman phrased-something under something that is concealed, a correction or adjustment to the composition. The word pentimento according to my recent google search is Italian, meaning repentance from the verb pentirsi, to repent. Usually this term is used in art to refer to a single painting that an individual artist created. It generally refers to a correction made in the process of that creation only revealed by the use of X-ray. For instance the adjustment of a limb on the image of a body that the artist revised in the process of composing the painting. In my use of the term here, the adjustment has come much later to a fully realized painting that I significantly changed after some years. In the case of one piece, The Temple of Devotion, this has been a ten year process. The truth of this painting is in all of the layers, the ones that are visible to the naked eye, as well as the ones below the surface.
Each of the three large 48 x 48 inch pieces in this series have traces, evidence from the previous work-underlayers. They are reclaimed and reincarnated into new images which carry the history and spirit of the old. In an essay on Interpictuality- the author says,
"In certain artists the quotation can have the shape of a self-interpicturality. In some the quotation can have the shape of a re-painting. Certain artists transform the repainting into a continual repainting or a variation of the same work." 1
The words, interpicturality as well as intertextuality and intermediality are new to me. Though the conceptual aspect of these words has become second nature to me; in our global existence we continually cross reference in conversation and every time we make a search on the World Wide Web. Derived from the Latin intertexto, meaning to intermingle while weaving, the term intertextuality was formulated by Julia Kristeva-who wrote in the 1960's about shaping meaning in text through the use other texts, into a unified whole. Shaping meaning or image by the layering of multiple references, parallels my process as I write this on my Mac computer in a program called TextEdit. I am engaged in the process of intertextuality while multiple windows are open on my desk top: a Wikipedia definition of the word; an essay by Koralova Vassilena on The Interartistic Phenomenon; another on Interpicturality in Braun-Vega's Paintings; all of this on top of a digital image of one of my paintings as a screen saver-another layered image. Like it or not, it is the world we live in now, mulit-layered windows open on our desktops forever shifting the way that we engage with information and images.
Were it not for the computer and the digital age we live in, I wonder if my work would develop as it has, I wonder whether other artists would have given themselves permission to work with interpicturallity. We see the birth of this in both Picasso's and Braque's earliest collages, where there is a layering of images sourced from various media. To paraphrase what my friend Hector said in our conversation, "the observer needs to connect through their intuition to the work of art. What the artist does is to provide conditions of meaning."* They do that through the media, perhaps the title, the scale, color, texture, etc. The conditions of meaning might also include other factors like location, light, sound, etc. We do live in a new age far different than artists worked in even a generation ago. We weave in and out of so much each day on our screens, a plethora of possibility with media.
I love stories and as time seems to move faster and faster into our collective future, I believe we need our stories more. I do not believe we leave behind the past but carry it forward. The heart and soul of my work as an artist is about reconsidering history, this personal quest became more apparent to me recently. My favorite aunt and uncle recently passed away, earlier this year, within two months of one another. A piece of extraordinary cloth that they had brought back from Japan after WWII impressed me as a child. It is a silver threaded masterpiece of weaving, a silk cloth for an obi-the broad sash worn around the waist over a kimono. My aunt had a long piece of it framed vertically and it always hung in their living room. It has a pattern of trees, pine type trees that appear to be flying through a silvery space. After their recent memorial service my brother sent it to me and I now have the great pleasure to live with it again.
Both my father and my uncle served in the military during WWII. My uncle, a surgeon, was stationed on a military base in Yokahama and my father was a paratrooper sent there during the U.S. occupation post-war. The work I am doing now and just previous to this (see Plum Blossoms for Adversity) is connected to their time there and acts as a sort of healing to the wounds they suffered psychologically. The obi cloth threads, the weft and warp of it still inspire me.
All these factors, afford me as a 21st century artist the ability as Vassilena says, "to be better able to express the inexpressible...."2 And that is my ultimate goal, to be better able to express that which is beyond words or images. The spirit of these paintings is meant to convey sacred stories, the text of which continues to arise out of the heart and soul of me. Often the greater meaning runs ahead of me and I catch up to it later. The pentimento of these pieces connects me to the past, a healing for my generation for what transpired in the world before I was born and to the present.
* "The Conditions of Meaning is a phrase Hector Contreras coined during our conversation June 21, 2014 in reference to my exhibition, Devotions.

A canary was sitting on my bed yesterday, right in front of a stack of pillows on a duvet -covered comforter. It is January and my bed is dressed for winter nights. The canary, (we just met last week), is a recent adoption. He came from a friend who has cancer and feels less than able to take care of him. I am pleased to know this little creature, Piccolo, I think we are going to be a good match. As he is singing his beautiful song as I type, yes, I am very pleased to make his acquaintance. He is known as a Red-factor canary, bred to produce red feathers depending on his diet. But now he is more a mixture of cadmium orange and lemon yellow. Piccolo got out of his cage yesterday, all my fault, as I was cavalier in opening the largest door wide during the action of changing the papers on the floor of the cage.
It was perhaps a subconscious move on my part, to see how he would react, never-the less, I was surprised. He saw the opportunity to spread his wings and went for it. Then spent the entire day hopping and flying around my bedroom, hiding under a mirrored nightstand or behind a chair while I vainly attempted to rescue him. Since he hasn't had much opportunity to fly during his four or five years of life, I suppose I feel kind of sorry for him. And so I let him have as much time as he wanted, took a relaxed attitude about it -what else could I do-and marveled at the wonder of him throughout the day. I came and went from the room, careful to close the door lest he get out into the rest of my house.
Seeing this tiny winged one sitting on the bed looking so absolutely charming, a brilliant yellow life on the white comforter quickened my pulse. His presence lifting the spirit of the space as he moved from an upholstered chair seat to the floor, then again, flying across the room landing on an Asian cabinet like a living figurine with feathers amongst the framed family photos. And that brings me to the subject of painting. It's all about animation right now. Light and animation. All about making something that references nature but in an ever changing way. I am working with metallic leaf, composite materials of aluminum and brass, applied in thin layers with varnish to the surface of prepared panels. I let the leafing make it's way to the tacky varnish when it is almost but not fully dry and with the lightest touch like a feather, press it down. Sometimes a whole leaf will adhere perfectly without a blemish but more often, it cracks, splits apart and reveals the under-color in the process. I have to accept the organic aspects of this medium and surrender to the nature of the delicate material. The grid structure the shiny square pieces applied in formation along side the unexpected irregular breaks give the pieces both order and chaos, something like a garden. But it is the way the overall effect of the metallic finish reflects light that I most respond to. There is no way to capture the changing luster of these paintings photographically. They never look the same way twice. They change at all hours of the day, with the seasons, at dawn and dusk, reflecting what is around them. As you move in front of them, your refection glides across the surface, evident in a subtle way, as are the other elements in the room, be that a canary or a jade plant. I have had to surrender to a semblance of the truth in documenting them because there is no one truth to them.
The Flora Series is a continuation of a body of work I started last year, early in 2012. I wasn't sure when I started this work where it would take me, I only knew that something needed to change about my process to accommodate me in the space I work in. I am fortunate to live in a semi-rural neighborhood in New Mexico. Urban enough to have community and just enough of what matters to me in terms of landscape: a white horse across the road named Sunday and six goats he lords over, an old massive cottonwood tree. Always the pace of nature around me, especially in the spring when Rose, my land-lady makes her organic garden available and a field in the back which abut's a park. But the little house/casita I live in is small and though not nearly ideal in size for a large scale oil painter, it makes up for in character and location. A friend of mine, also a painter, once told me of a scene from a film she saw about an artist. The artist only had an armoire and an area rug to call a studio. I always think back to this vision fondly, a romantic notion, yes, and as a serious consideration. That is, in some ways, all we need as artists, everything else is a luxury.
Piccolo inspired me when he left his cage for a day, the confines of which are, for the most part, all he has ever known. He animated my space with his curiosity, stretched his wings into my imagination and helped me to consider how these paintings enliven the spaces they exist in, how they receive light and reflect it back. It is a question I am still considering and no doubt will for some time. It's a dance and I am still learning the steps. And oh yeah, Piccolo is back in his cage singing his beautiful song.
For more of a dialogue on my process, here is a link to a conversation I was part of at Humboldt State University in 2010, with Kirsten Dorje, Lang Julian, Lynn Risling and Deborah Gavel -PAINTING SPIRIT: A Four Part Conversation http://humboldt-dspace.calstate.edu/handle/2148/37
Artist's Statement 2012
Featured Artist Profile: Duke City Fix
First for the "artist" himself when he paints a piece, and then for the people who are later going to work on seeing this image, to meditate on it and its meaning—and what is more, through this meditation, finally to make the divinity herself appear.
-Franck Andre Jamme
In May of 2011 I was graced with the opportunity to have an artist-in-residecny at the Morris Graves Foundation in Loleta, California. My new work is in response to that time in nature, connecting with the primal Redwood forested land there, walking the wet fern-lined trails to a waterfall. And in response to the absolute wonder of seeing a bald eagle flying across my field of vision three days in a row over the lake outside the studio space.
In this moment, I feel on fire with a breath of life that I have not felt before. Sometimes there is a creative urge that wells up like a torch song, deep and sensual. Creativity can manifest itself through the body in many ways, all at the same time. Sometimes it is slow and melancholy for me, or inspiration comes in suddenly like a hiccup in unexpected jolts but does not last. There have been years where a sort of static agitates my body the way a radio station not quite on the mark does, during those times the path as an artist is a struggle to bear with; my clarity is hard to find. For now, in this moment, it is springtime and the birds are chirping and bees are active in the field behind my casita in New Mexico. Life is bursting from the earth in welcome abundance this year. The wisteria in bloom around the neighborhood has never been so fecund and the forever sweet scent of lilacs, my favorite flower, wafts through the airwaves. In the garden outside, though it is still early, much is growing. Everything is reborn and resounding gratitude drips from my brushes.
Fertility expressed everywhere, oh, the wonder of baby green leaves appearing on winter trees, bursting out clouds of tenderness onto the landscape. Now with brushes in my hands, oil paint on my fingertips, I want to match the orgy of birds and bees mating around me. My long desire is to visually express the mysterious wonder of all that is. I think I understand better what the Baroque period of the 17th century was all about: embellishing the palaces of France and Italy with the most extreme extravagance found in the gardens of nature at springtime.
Stephen H. Buhner, in his book, The Secret Teachings of the Plants explains why Science gets it wrong when thinking compartmentalizes any aspect of being. "Life will never be found in the DNA nor any part of the whole. Life is the thing that is more than the sum of the parts..." We are together in this experience, one superorganism with earth and we cannot exist without other--plants, animals and minerals. My current work is about an imaging of that idea.
A new book of Tantric tempera, gouache and watercolors on paper from Rajasthan, India, I have only seen in reproductions, has inspired my current body of work. What makes these small pieces so compelling is the character of the handmade papers, which has become stained and randomly marked over time, adding something to the overall effect akin to modern art. I bow to the anonymous artists who made these abstract Tantric meditations in an attempt "to make divinity herself appear."*
In this moment, working with the alchemy of metallic leaf, beeswax and oil, I am enjoying a reverie with mediums - I am thinking about what a painting might look like that weaves the music of Lana Del Rey with the teachings of the Dali Lama- goddess lounge singer meets the sacred path- I mean not disrespect but full appreciation for the merging of the sensual and the spiritual.

Artist Statement 2009
The Pharmacology of Nature
It is clear we are in a sea change of experience. For some the world seems to be falling apart
while others see this as a time of great potential for immense change. In the studio I meditate on the
latter; I am involved in making images that reflect a sense of a flowering of hope for humanity and the
environment around the globe. My new work is an effort to communicate an awareness about our
changing environment through painting. Nature is a theatre of textures and colors, all of it medicinal,
every flower, every substance has the potential to be healing. I am interested in the connection be-
tween creativity and our evolution.
Two new paintings, Milk and Honey, True Love and Milk and Honey, Nirvana perhaps best express
these thoughts. They are amalgams, the result of many materials and combined influences along my
journey as an artist-- Tibetan mandalas (Thanka paintings,) a love of pattern in nature, textiles from
indigenous cultures, and long walks in New Mexico. They are offerings of beauty in these troubled
Often I am influenced by what I am reading and currently rereading, James Elkins's book: What
Painting Is has greatly affected my teaching as well my studio time. Elkins's book attempts to unfold
the act of painting and that unlanguaged time artists spend in their studios, mixing and stirring like
alchemists working with "water and stones," the basic ingredients common to both painting and al-
chemy. Elkins's brilliant sentence, "painting is liquid thought," says it best. In the studio I am chef and
sous-chef, a little mad scientist experimenting with ingredients, answerable only to my intuitive re-
sponse to the physical qualities of paint.
A recent "recipe" of wax, gold leaf, turquoise stones, glitter and broken French porcelain has turned
the tactile surface of my oil paintings into something approaching assemblage. But it is the spiritual
qualities of these substances or the potential for that which drives me in the studio, --the idea that
painting like alchemy can be about the pursuit of an ultimate aim, transformation/evolution, appeals to
my artisan nature. Working with material matter in a quest for truth and beauty, the methods, like the
mythology of alchemy, can be obscure. Yet it is just that mysterious quality, ever elusive, which com-
pels me to continue the quest.
In the broadest sense, my work is multi-cultural. It has a "heritage" that is as diverse as my own
Eastern European and Native American ancestry. My paternal Grandmother, who was a Polish immi-
grant and spoke little English, communicated with me through other means. I remember the shelves
in her dining room always had elaborately painted Easter eggs resting in little stands. The eggs were
covered with intricate floral designs, using a wax- resist method. She was also an alchemist, trans-
forming eggs, flour, water and golden raisins into the greatest bread. My childhood memories are
framed in a sort of synesthesia of sight and taste, a merging of my senses to experience visual pat-
terns as something delicious. Essentially, this work, like my Grandmother's bread, is about an en-
gagement with the physical senses, a sensibility that reaches toward a visual seduction and a culture
of the heart.

Victoria Arlen, a gold medal winning para-athlete swimmer was named a brand ambassador for Q'Straint, developers of safety solutions for wheelchair passenger transportation. The announcement comes during National Mobility Awareness Month. Arlen, who was recently chosen to participate in the 2013 International Paralympic Committee Swimming World Championships in August, will appear in Q'Straint ads in national trade publications.
"Our mission is to ensure that people in wheelchairs are able to safely get wherever they are going whether it is on public transportation, taxi or their personal vehicle," said Dan Bruck, Q'Straint marketing manager. "Victoria is an amazing young lady who has overcome incredible odds during her life to become a very successful para-athlete. We are honored to have someone with her dedication, poise and determination as our brand advocate." Paralyzed at age 11 due to transverse myelitis, a rare viral disease, Arlen spent nearly two years in a coma. Today she is a star para-athlete swimmer. During the games last summer in London, Arlen won gold in the 100-meter freestyle and a silver medal in the 50-meter freestyle, 400-meter freestyle and 4x100-meter freestyle medley. She is the world record holder in the 100- and 400-meter freestyle and holds the American record in the 50-meter breaststroke and 100-, 200- and 400-meter freestyle and Pan Am record in the 100-meter breaststroke and 400-meter freestyle. Transportation vehicles serving the para-athletes during last summer's games in London were outfitted with Q'Straint products. In addition, Arlen's personal mobility vehicle is equipped with Q'Straint retractors. "The independence that Q'Straint provides from a security and safety perspective means so much to those of us in wheelchairs and offers the highest level of reassurance for our families. I'm excited to be part of their team," said Arlen.
The bill would create a new license for TNCs, including companies like Uber and Lyft, making it mandatory to pay a $5,000 fee, conduct background checks on drivers and maintain at least $1 million in liability insurance in order to operate in Wisconsin.
Agreement covers use of Dallas Smith's existing and future commercial bus technologies as optional features on the Champion Bus LF Transport™ low-floor model. Dallas Smith's existing patented technologies include the Equalizer Ramp® and the IntelliSYNC® electronically-controlled "smart" suspension system, with low-speed OverRise™ function.
The Westmoreland County Transit Authority's $600,000 state grant will be used to buy the seven-seat minibuses that can hold up to two wheelchairs. The vehicles will be given to private transportation companies that serve as contractors for the paratransit system.
The agency agreed to implement stronger anti-fraud controls recommended by the inspector general's office. The report doesn't identify who carried out the fraud or quantify the cost to the MTA.
The energy will be used to help power the vehicles and run the climate control systems, lights, ramps and wheelchair lift while the buses are stopped, eliminating the need for idling.

This is a Domestic Discipline video starring new comer Mistress Sahara. In the first scene our heroine is punishing her best friend's husband for his various misdeeds. She takes Ford over her knee and gives him a hard strapping. Next, she makes him take his belt off and whips him with his own belt on his bare ass before really laying into him with the paddle and the cane. In the next scene Mistress Sahara severely paddles and straps Bart for his foul language and then washes his mouth out with soap. She lathers her hands up and sticks her hands in Bart's mouth and then jams the heart shaped bar of soap into his mouth. This is one hot scene!

Burnley win playoff final to reach Premier League
Burnley 1 Sheffield United 0
Owen Coyle's Burnley secured promotion to the Barclays Premier League following victory over Sheffield United in today's Coca-Cola Championship play-off final.
The Clarets, among the founder members of the Football League, are back in the top flight for the first time since 1976 courtesy of Wade Elliott's 13th-minute strike.
Burnley, who were so close to reaching Wembley in both cup competitions this season, stepped up when it counted most to land the estimated £60million booty for reaching the promised land.
For United, another season in the Championship beckons, two years after they were relegated amid the controversy of the Carlos Tevez affair.
The Blades maintain they, and not a Tevez-inspired West Ham, should have stayed up in 2007.
No little irony, then, in another claret and blue-clad goalscorer condemning them to a third term outside the top flight.
But there could be no argument about Elliott's goal, the 30-year-old midfielder, formerly of Bashley and Bournemouth, conjuring up a strike which would have graced any Premier League ground - and certainly lit up a packed Wembley.
The Blades will point to two penalty shouts turned down by referee Mike Dean, whose appointment was criticised by manager Kevin Blackwell in the build-up to the game.
And they finished with 10 men when Dean sent off young striker Jamie Ward for handball, his second bookable offence.
Victory sees Burnley become the smallest town to boast a Premier League team - and almost half of their 73,000 inhabitants had travelled down to the capital to watch them triumph.
The Clarets were deserved winners in their 61st game of an arduous season, having knocked out top-flight opposition including Chelsea, Arsenal and Fulham during their two epic cup runs.
But they were on the back foot in the opening stages with United, who held hopes of automatic promotion until the final day of the season, testing Brian Jensen with awkward shots from Kyle Naughton and Brian Howard.
But against the run of play, Burnley took the lead thanks to a superb piece of play from Elliott.
The midfielder burst forward, skipping past a couple of Blades tackles before playing in Chris McCann.
Matt Kilgallon got a challenge in but the ball fell perfectly for Elliott to curl a stunning first-time effort past Paddy Kenny from 20 yards.
United were claiming a penalty two minutes later when Howard tumbled in the area under a clumsy challenge from Graham Alexander, but referee Dean was not interested.
McCann's afternoon ended prematurely when he limped off to be replaced by Joey Gudjonsson, but the swap did not knock the Clarets out of their stride and Martin Paterson curled an angled drive inches wide of Kenny's right-hand post.
As the clock ticked into first-half stoppage time Thompson headed Elliot's cross narrowly wide.
Burnley almost doubled their lead moments after the restart when Robbie Blake's corner was flicked on by Steven Thompson and Michael Duff, arriving at the far post, just failed to turn the ball home.
And in the 55th minute they were denied a second by a dramatic goal-line clearance from Nick Montgomery.
Thompson's header back across the six-yard box was turned goalwards by Gudjonsson, and Montgomery knew little about it as the ball hit the heel of his standing foot, a yard from the line, and bounced wide.
United had another huge let-off 10 minutes later when Thompson sprang the offside trap again and this time squared the ball across to Blake, only for young defender Kyle Walker to make a goal-saving challenge.
Burnley's missed chances could have come back to haunt them in the 68th minute when Christian Kalvenes knocked Naughton off the ball in the box but Dean again waved away the appeals.
Paterson was next to try his luck, cutting in from the right and surging into the box only for Walker to block his shot.
And the Blades' task became tougher still in the 78th minute when striker Jamie Ward, who had been booked four minutes earlier, was shown a second yellow card by Dean for handball.
United looked a beaten side as Burnley held on, and the claret and blue half of Wembley erupted on Dean's final whistle, bringing the curtain down on a memorable campaign.

Most mud masks feel like paper-mâché creations once they dry on our faces. Not so with this super-soft mask from WEI™. It purges all kinds of debris from your skin—from excess oil to environmental pollutants—leaving your pores nearly invisible. We love how the single-use pods come equipped with a handy brush to help you apply the mask evenly. The formula works for all skin types, even the most sensitive.
This mask is very luxurious. Since the sample did not include a brush, I applied it with a foundation brush. The "single-use" package provided me with several applications. I'm sure I could have used it all at once, but it certainly did the job with just a bit of it. My skin feels very very smooth and clean. It does feel a little tight, but nothing a little moisturizer won't fix.
4I am a mask fanatic!! I LOVE masks! I have both of glam glows, boscia and I have to say - this one is THE BEST. I love the texture, I love the smell and I LOVE how soft my skin is after I use it. I see a noticeable difference after using it compared to the others. Glam glow goes second to this! The only problem - it's in those weird containers and you couldn't use an entire pod unless you were going full body so I wish they would put it in a tube but whatever! I tried in a sample but can't wait to get the brush in the full set!

We had chosen this hotel because it was supposed to have a car park but when we arrived we were informed that there was no free place for our car and we had to spend quite a long time to find a place to park the car.

The hotel is very good, having an excellent location, spacious, comfortable and modern rooms (with a free mini bar). The only problem was that our room was noisy since we could hear every single step made in the next door room. Especially the noise of the bathroom. Other than that, the stay at the hotel was excellent.

Rutherford Institute Asks U.S. Supreme Court to Ensure that Lawful Gun Ownership Is Not a Trigger for 'No-Knock' Police Raids |
News Releases - General Info | |||
Written by Nisha Whitehead | |||
Friday, 20 December 2013 09:04 | |||
WASHINGTON, DC — Warning against encroachments on the Second Amendment right to bear arms, The Rutherford Institute has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case of a Texas man whose home was subject to a no-knock, SWAT-team style forceful entry and raid based solely on the suspicion that there were legally-owned firearms in his household. Although police had obtained a search warrant for John Quinn's home based on information that Quinn's son might possess drugs, the warrant did not authorize police to enter the residence without knocking and announcing their entry. During the raid, Quinn was shot by police because he had reached for his lawfully owned firearm, thinking that his home was being invaded by criminals. In asking the Supreme Court to hear the case of Quinn v. State of Texas, Institute attorneys argue that making lawful gun ownership and possession grounds for police to evade the protections afforded by the Fourth Amendment improperly penalizes and limits the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
"Whatever the issue might be, whether it's mass surveillance, no-knock raids, or the right to freely express one's views about the government, we've moved into a new age in which the rights of the citizenry are being treated as a secondary concern by the White House, Congress, the courts, and their vast holding of employees, including law enforcement officials," said John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute and author of A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State. "The disconnect, of course, is that the Constitution establishes a far different scenario in which government officials, including the police, are accountable to 'we the people.' For it to be otherwise, for government concerns to trump individual freedoms, with government officials routinely sidestepping the Constitution and reinterpreting the law to their own purposes, makes a mockery of everything this nation is supposed to stand for—self-government, justice, and the rule of law." In August 2006, Collin County (Texas) police obtained a warrant to search John Quinn's home based on information that Quinn's son might be in possession of controlled substances. The warrant did not authorize police to enter the residence without knocking and announcing their entry. Nevertheless, based solely on the suspicion that there were firearms in the Quinn household, the SWAT team forcibly broke into Quinn's home after he had gone to bed and proceeded to carry out a search of the premises. During the raid, Quinn was shot by police because he had reached for his lawfully owned firearm, thinking that his home was being invaded by criminals. The raid resulted in police finding less than one gram of cocaine, which Quinn was charged with possessing. Lower courts rejected Quinn's objection to the "no-knock" entry on the grounds that because police had information that guns were present at the residence, they were justified in making a forced and unannounced invasion into Quinn's home. Although established Fourth Amendment jurisprudence dictates that police officers entering a dwelling must knock on the door and announce their identity and purpose before attempting a forcible entry, police may disregard the knock and announce rule under circumstances presenting a threat of physical violence or a danger that evidence will be destroyed. In their petition to the U.S. Supreme Court, Rutherford Institute attorneys argue that in the absence of any evidence of actual danger to police, the legal possession of a firearm, as guaranteed by the Second Amendment, is not sufficient to justify allowing police to override the Fourth Amendment's protection against unannounced "no-knock" home invasions when executing warrants. Affiliate attorney James A. Pikl of Scheef & Stone, LLP, in Frisco, Texas, is assisting the Institute in defending the rights of Quinn. The Rutherford Institute, a nonprofit civil liberties organization, provides legal assistance at no charge to individuals whose constitutional rights have been threatened or violated. Trackback(0)

Anybody else running into problems with the hardware keyboard on their Droid 3? I'm having two propblems: for one, keys occasionally "stick" on me--like I'll press the delete button once, and it'll keep deleting until I hit another key. I'm also running into non-responsive keys, like I'll type out a message and find that there aren't any g's or t's or something. The non-responsive issue started a couple of weeks after I got the phone, and seems to be getting worse, and the "sticky" key problem just started a week or so ago. The fact that it's getting worse leads me to believe it's a hardware issue and I just got a bad builthe but at the same time, the keys don't feel like they're sticking or not depressing. I'm hoping it's a software issue that'll be dealt with in the impending update. However, I've only found a couple of posts in various forums with people having this problem, which sadly leads me to believe that it's a hardware issue affecting a handful of phones... So anybody else having problems with their keyboard?
people have reported the stickey or non responsive keys have been fixed with the OTA update. either install the soak update yourself or wait for the official update and then go from there.
I've been having the stick issue with the "." key. I wont be paying attention and I will send a text, then look at the sent text, and see it ends with "............................." and it continues into the next text before sent. It has been happening a lot more recently, and I was wondering if I was hitting something the wrong way.
Mine has been doing it too, but I thought it might be due to me cramming the Extended Battery into the stock battery case. I stopped doing that a couple of days ago and it seemed to be a lot better, but if this is a software issue fixed in the upcoming (soon?) OTA update, I will feel even better. Glenn
Thanks. That was my game plan to begin with, but this gives me a little more faith that things will actually improve. Neither the Motorola nor VZW tech folks could tell me if th OTA had anything that dealt with the hardware keyboard (oddly, the Motorola rep even insisted they didn't know anything about an impending update at all, and swore that if they knew anything he'd tell me all about it... He kind of sputtered when I told him it was already leaked).
My "a" and "m" keys take a little extra pressure to show up. Also, sometimes the space or "." will start typing by themselves super fast. A couple times, backspace went nuts and started erasing my message before I pressed something to interrupt it. I hope this is a software issue and not a hardware issue.
its been reported its a software issue. the key isnt actually sticking but the phone keeps thinking its being imput. as i said before, people using the OTA have said the symptoms have gone away completely, or atleast lessend.
The center region of my space bar has somewhat lost its "clicky-ness", but still registers each time it's pressed although it doesn't feel right and I have to double check that it entered.
Thanks, now that I updated my firmware via the official OTA, I'll report back on how the keyboard has responded since the update.
Exactly. In the old days we called this "keybounce", an intended single press usually registers very quickly as multiple presses, so the software reading the keyboard port has to be able to ignore the pretty much unavoidable "bounce" presses via a timing decision having to do with reading the port and flushing contents before re-reading. This must have been messed up with the original firmware - its sort of an art anyway and has to be finagled and messed with in real trials under different temperatures and CPU loads. Looks here like they got it just right with this update. Not a single "stuck key" or "which foreign char do you want" (same issue) here since. But, meanwhile, the Swype Help is in Spanish and the default Swype language is Spanish (though that second can be changed to English). Good thing they seem to have really fixed up the hard keyboard timing issue ! Glenn
I briefly tried my keyboard to send a quick text and noticed it is improved and no sticky keys, but my "a" key requires slightly more force than the other keys to appear. Ditto for "ALT". That's OK, since it's not an unreasonable amount of force by any means.
I have the unresposive keys, sometimes the 'm' or another letter. But then again I got my phone from CL.
Is anyone else having keyboard problems with the D3? I had the issue with repeated keys, but that went away after a OTA update. Now I get a variety of minor flakiness. Sometimes it does not appear to register a keypress. Sometimes it doubles a keypress, so I get an extra. I don't remember having any issue with this with my OG Droid. Anyone else having D3 issues? Or am I nutty?
Yes. Some of my keys don't work and I have to press them several times before they register on screen. Specifically the A, back space and space bar. I called verizon tech support and they are sending me a replacement.
lately my keyboard has been having issues as well. some keys won't register when i clearly feel them click (sometimes multiple times), and some will register 2-4 times with one click. the particularly bad ones seem to be the space bar, t, b, and a couple of others. i've had my d3 since day 1 (pre-ordered online first day possible) and have loved it. it is rooted with monster rom 1.2 since december. the only thing i've done recently is installed the extended battery. any ideas or any recent fixes? it's gotten to the point where i've been using the virtual keyboard for texts, which says a lot since i have always had a droid due to the physical keyboard. i upgraded from the d2 and never had an issue with it's keyboard.
My husbands D3 has a problem with the "r" key. Every time he uses r a series of unrelated letters come up. We've got the most recent update and he's cleared the keyboard cache, removed the battery all the usual things and nothing helps. Any other suggestions?
The only other thing that I can think of is to factory reset and see if the problem goes away or recurs. If it is still there, it's probably time to call for a warranty replacement. Good luck.
Doogald is right. The original ROM for the Droid3 had a timing problem with the physical keyboard, where single presses would register twice or more due (probably) to a mismatch between expected behavior and how the real keyboard actually worked. They relaxed the timings in OTA 5.6.890 and that problem was cleared up on my phones and all others reporting. It struck me at the time though, that maybe the keyboards delivered to Motorola didn't exactly meet expectations... The problems reported recently in this thread though sound like a physical keyboard defect, not the older fixed keyboard driver software issue. Return the phone for a replacement and hope it works better. I wonder if the keyboards might be just starting to wear out ? I use mine less now I have gotten into Swype, but for some things a keyboard is essential to me, like for entering long secure passwords. Glenn
Mine never repeated keys but am finding that some like the space bar are now requiring extra pressure in order to register. Whatever happened to bullet proof products (not just phones but in general)? Seems everything now is not if there will be an issue with it, but whether the issue occurs while its still in warranty or not. While there has been a large advancement in technology, the mechanics of things have definitely went backwards rather than advancing.
Mine is starting to act up too. I thought it was the recent update breaking the previous fix but now I'm not so sure. I have to double click the space bar, alt & shift keys more often than not lately. Is the KB really that bad across the board? How disappointing, I really do like the phone over all.
The answer is quite complicated, I am sure; first, that people are probably not willing to pay the price for bullet-proof technology. Second, that people want phones to be a specific size, thickness and weight, and anything that deviates from those expected values will not sell (the D3 is heavy enough as it is - if a bullet-proof keyboard was heavier, there are plenty of people who may have chosen another phone.) The OEMs must balance functionality and design requirements like this, and cost and profitability as well, and make the best product without breaking any of those "rules". (I am typing this on a still-going-strong, five and a half year old Macbook, by the way...)
Bulletproof technology comes at a price... Have you ever looked at Toughbooks? A 10" tablet starts at over $800 at BestBuy (laptops exceed $4000). toughbook - BestBuy
And you paid the price for that Macbook! Maybe bulletproof was a strong word to use. How about something that lasts to expectations. I don't think a keyboard holding up for my 2 year contract is too much to ask. I am not a heavy user of the keyboard of my D3 so my expectations is for it to at least last as long as my contract. My flip phones never had keypads that wonked out and those keys were used quite heavily. What I'm really waiting to see is if the digitizer makes it through my contract. After 1 year and 3 months my OG Droid's digitizer stopped responding to touch. And strangely, right around that time, threads were popping up everywhere of others having the exact same issue. Part of the screen would stop responding and then spread to the other areas until finally there was no area that responded to touch. Fingers are crossed!
Well, six months along and my D3 keyboard is just fine. The slider is not as crisp as it was at the start, but it's still fine. Of course, my 30 month old Droid Eris still works just fine, as well as my Motorola Q9h circa 2007. Perhaps I'm just careful about my stuff?

Playing the Godfather to Matthew Broderick Means Another Mob Scene for Brando
Nobody will say how much Brando is earning for The Freshman, but it has to be considerably more than the union scale he worked for in A Dry White Season (opening this fall), his first screen appearance in eight years.
His acting skills aren't all that Brando needs to get through this role; he also had to take ice-skating lessons. Observers reported that, despite his bulk, Brando was positively graceful on the ice. And, in another surprise, Brando has been delightful on the set, not just to fellow performers, but (an even bigger shock) to the paparazzi he once shunned.

Arizona Sen. John McCain has hired his former Senate chief of staff to be the new manager of his campaign.
The campaign announced Friday that Mark Buse would take over its top job.
McCain shook up his campaign last week, moving two senior operatives to an outside fundraising committee. Campaign spokesman Brian Rogers says neither was fired.
McCain is facing the toughest re-election battle of his Senate career and fending off a GOP primary challenge from former U.S. Rep. J.D. Hayworth.
Buse is an Arizona native who first worked for McCain as an intern in the 1980s when McCain was in the U.S. House.

book BA now or wait for easyjet flights to be realeased? holiday August 2015
(11 Posts)Haven't been on a plane for 20 years so haven't a clue about booking flights, 3 adults and 3 children, will be 15, 12 and 10 next year, just checked flights with BA and its about £1700, any idea how much cheaper it is to book with easyjet, ?? Will be gutted if I book this and could get flights a lot cheaper, will be going on a Sat morning in August 2015 and staying for a week, gatwick to malaga, Spain, thankyou
That seems very expensive to me. Personally I would wait for another airline.
I have just checked the BA price and it is £1400 for 6 of you. At least you can take luggage with you if you fly with them! There are only prices for 1 August departure released at the moment but they already have very few seats left at the cheaper prices. Personally I cannot stand Easy Jet and their luggage rules and extra charges. I would do BA now and have peace of mind. Easy Jet will probably be cheaper though.
We fly BA a lot and last year we left it a bit late and BA went up by £100/ticket after only 4 weeks after checking the prices first.
With Ba you get a decent luggage allowance, also hand luggage is good. With easyjet you normally pay for everything extra and I only do it on short trips where one suitcase is enough for the three of us.
Easyjet aren't always as cheap as you think. I've looked at them before and have been shocked at the price. Saturday flights won't be cheap with them as it's a peak day. BA are a good option, and if you have kids with you, they allocate seats for you 3 days before general online check in.
My DD used to fly in and out of Switzerland and Italy and for her Easy Jet was a bit cheaper but they flew to Gatwick or Birmingham so we would need to spend way more time in the car and expect more traffic problems. As a result it was BA to Heathrow every time on overall price, convenience and luggage allowance. On a very popular route, it is best to book immediately with BA. I think about £235 per person on a Saturday in August is reasonable. Much much cheaper mid week by the way.
Book it now. Easyjet is rarely cheap in August. I paid £1800 for 4 seats london to faro this august, which was booked as soon as easyjet released them.
As a guide, I fly to Rome every year with Easyjet. I tend to book in Feb for August....I generally pay about £700 including luggage return for me and my two kids 5 and 11. BA often works out not much more, but is from heathrow....so actually it's better for me to go easyjet. The secret is to fly mid week, not weekends to get the prices low.
I would say that sounds expensive to me, I'd probably hang on and use Easyjet.
Easyjet is ok, they allocate seats now so it's not as horrific as it used to be....it's still orange though...I hate that! Lol X
"Cheap" is not always cheerful. Easyjet won't be quite as cheap once you factor in the extra costs incurred by using them.
I was at Gatwick some time back and noticed the line for the bag drop for Easyjet; it looked very long and moved glacially.
Also if things go wrong BA are more likely to be able to put things right quicker. £1400 for the six of you return seems more than reasonable.
BA's luggage allowance both for cabin and hold luggage is far more generous for passengers. And the meal and drink service on board is free.
Oops, I misread! £1400 for six sounds fine!!!! I'd take that!!!
I thought it was for four!
Always take BA over easyjet if the price is good!
