Jamie Oliver's huge expansion of his business empire "scares" his friend and food mentor Gennaro Contaldo, the Italian chef revealed.
Opening the latest Oliver venture, a two-storey café, cooking school and food emporium called Recipease in Notting Hill, Contaldo said: "Jamie is incredible but he scares me sometimes. I am afraid because he has a new idea and bam, he wants to do it right now.
"He puts so much money and so much energy into everything — he doesn't know when to stop. He's very adventurous."
Contaldo, 63, became a mentor to Oliver in the Nineties and now helps train chefs and develop menus for the Jamie's Italian restaurant chain.
Oliver, 37, has opened branches in Australia and Dubai and plans to expand into America.
Worth £150 million, he already has 38 restaurants around the world and is hosting a food festival with Blur bassist Alex James in Oxfordshire next month.
The Notting Hill store — the third in the Recipease chain — will offer classes in skills including pasta-making, Mexican street food and fish filleting that will cost from £35.
Contaldo, who advised Oliver on the project, said: "Jamie wants to bring cooking to the high street at high street prices so you come in, you shop, you learn how to make something new, you go home and cook it."
Oliver said in a statement: "Notting Hill is the perfect location and I think we'll really make the area proud. There's so much to see and so many cooking classes to choose from that I'm sure everyone will find something to excite them."
US media has reported that American Idol host Ryan Seacrest is working on a film loosely based on the Oliver's Food Revolution TV series, which followed his attempts to improve school meals in America.
My pasta passes from goo to good
The first time I attempted to make pasta I ended up with a kitchen that looked like a flour tsunami had hit it and a congealed, rubbery mess at the bottom of a saucepan that bore only a passing resemblance to tagliatelle.
Cue an SOS call for pizza delivery.
So off to pasta school I go. The two-hour lesson at Recipease is fun and informative — we're taught how to make and knead dough, pass it through a pasta machine and cut it into shapes, before conjuring up a simple but delicious tomato sauce to go with it.
Time for Gennaro's verdict: "It's AMAZING!" he shouts with typical Italian overstatement. "You can cook! Is PERFECT. I eat it all — I send picture to Jamie right now."
From pasta dunce to A* student in a morning. Can Maxine's Italian Kitchen cookbook be far off?

Home > Wellness > Health Library > Roseola
Roseola (roseola infantum) is a mild illness caused by a virus. It is generally harmless and is most common in children 6 months to 2 years of age. It is rare after age 4.
Roseola is caused by two common viruses. The viruses belong to the family of herpes viruses, but they do not cause the cold sores or genital infections that herpes simplex viruses can cause. They are spread through tiny droplets of fluid from the nose and throat of infected people when they laugh, talk, sneeze, or cough. Roseola mostly spreads from infected people who don't show symptoms.
If your child has roseola, keep him or her at home until there has been no fever for 24 hours and he or she is feeling better.
Roseola often starts with a sudden high fever [103°F (39.4°C) to 105°F (40.6°C)] that lasts 2 to 3 days, although it can last up to 8 days. The rapid increase in temperature may be the first sign of roseola and often occurs before you realize that your child has a fever. The fever ends suddenly.
After the fever ends, a rosy-pink rash may appear mostly on the trunk (torso), neck, and arms. The rash is not itchy and may last 1 to 2 days.
In rare cases, a sore throat, stomach ache, vomiting, and diarrhea occur.
A child with roseola may appear fussy or irritable and may have a decreased appetite, but most children behave almost normally.
Roseola is diagnosed through a medical history and physical exam. The doctor often knows it's roseola if your child had a fever and now has a distinct rash.
The roseola fever can be managed with acetaminophen (such as Tylenol), ibuprofen (such as Advil or Motrin), or sponge baths. If you give medicine to your baby, follow your doctor's advice about what amount to give. Do not give aspirin to anyone younger than 20 years of age because of the risk of Reye syndrome.
The roseola rash will go away without medical treatment.
Roseola generally is a harmless viral infection. Like any illness that can cause a fever, it can cause fever seizures, which are uncontrolled muscle spasms and unresponsiveness that last 1 to 3 minutes. The fever seizure is caused by the rapid increase in temperature in a short period of time. After a fever has reached a high temperature, the risk of a seizure is probably over.

Restful Night Essentials® (60 capsules, 30-day supply) | Sleep Aid Vitamins & Supplements
Item# RNE
Save 10% Plus Get FREE Shipping on Today's Order with AutoDelivery! What is AutoDelivery?
Stop struggling and start sleeping!
The first of its kind, my Restful Night Essentials® combines the five best natural sleeping aids into one powerful formula. It goes far beyond an ordinary melatonin supplement and also gives you L-theanine, valerian extract, hops extract, and lemon balm extract—each nutrient backed by science. It's this unique combination that not only helps you fall asleep faster and enjoy deep, sound sleep all night, but it helps regulate your sleep patterns. And it starts working as soon as the very first night. With Restful Night Essentials, you never feel groggy in the morning either. Instead, you wake energized and feel sharp and motivated all day long! And because it's a completely natural sleep aid and non-habit forming, you can take it every night without worry.
In one nightly dosage, you get:
- Melatonin to regulate your sleep pattern. Starting at around age 40, your levels of melatonin can naturally decline or change its pattern of release. This wreaks havoc on your sleep. When you supplement with melatonin, you're giving your body back the levels you need to reestablish healthy, normal sleep patterns.
- L-theanine to calm your mind. This amino acid promotes a relaxing effect on the mind, which is critical in falling asleep. Exciting preliminary studies also suggest it helps increase brain alpha-wave activity. This is important because alpha waves are the electrical signals produced by the brain during a relaxed state, including when you're sleeping.
- Valerian extract to promote sleep and ease frazzled nerves. This fascinating herb has been used since the 1800s for its sleep-inducing and calming benefits. While valerian has an impressive record of traditional use, it's also gaining the attention of scientists. Research suggests that valerian helps to improve sleep latency (the time it takes to fall asleep) and is closely linked to better sleep quality.
- Hops extract to fall asleep faster. Research suggests that it's a combination of hops extract and valerian extract that helps to improve sleep, decrease the time it takes to fall asleep, and increase brain alpha-wave activity.
- Lemon balm extract to relieve stress and induce sleep. Used for more than 2,000 years in traditional medicine, this herb helps ease stress and induce sleep. Plus, research suggests that lemon balm exerts a calming, mood-enhancing effect. Again, this is important because it's critical to relax both your mind and body before sleep.
Why Restful Night Essentials is better:
- It works fast…you feel it working the very first night. There's no waiting for weeks for it to build in your system like other natural sleeping aids.
- It gives you researched, science-backed nutrients so you can take it with confidence.
- It helps you fall asleep quickly and sleep soundly through the night, without "artificial" drowsiness.
- It is natural and non-habit forming. Take it every night without worry—it's actually good for you.
- It induces healthy, high-quality sleep—the kind of sleep that recharges your body, energy, and brain.
- You'll wake up incredibly refreshed—never groggy.

I'm an Xfce user, but something like this might get me to make a switch. Awesome!
Could it be Screen Management Done Right?
Nice work!
finaly, i hope they will port it to other DE lso
A great thing considering setting up multiple monitors in KDE (and GNOME) is a royal PITA and something like having any DE not just KDE automagically configure the 2nd monitor would be welcomed. A control panel for fine tuning the multi-monitor configuration would also be a nice touch too!
Sponsored by Red Hat?
That's interesting. I wasn't aware that they were sponsoring KDE?
Looks perfect for laptops, but I doubt this will help people with multiple displays on high-end workstations that span multiple GPUs / graphic cards.
As far as I'm concerned, KDE is the only high-end desktop left, every other project (even KDE to some extent) only cares about all of the tablets they're not even running on.

Basic Information:
Clan: /
Originally, Orochimaru appeared as an extremely pale-skinned human with waist-length black hair. He had amber eyes with slits in his pupils and purple markings around his eyes — a reference to his snake-like nature. Although he has taken on new bodies repeatedly, he has modified them each to resemble his original form, minus the height differences. Though he seems to be able to change at least his face back and forth between his own and the host's — such as when he battled the Third Hokage. Orochimaru is sometimes seen sporting different attires. He usually wears plain grey garbs with black pants and a thick purple rope belt tied in a large knot behind his back and blue tomoe-shaped earrings. He is seen wearing a black polo neck under it. As a young child, he wore long white robes with purple lining embroidered with black or yellow tomoe markings, tied with a purple ribbon forming a bow in the front, as well as white leggings and black open-toed shoes, and mesh top with a purple lining under it. In various flashbacks, he is also seen wearing the Oto ninja uniform and headband, as well as the Konoha ninja uniform. During his time in Konoha, his casual wear usually consisted of a dark kimono shirt with violet lining over a mesh shirt, bandages that he uses as a sash, dark pants, and armour around his hips. On his left hand, he has an intricate tattoo that he uses to summon snakes.
On one occasion, in which he proposed the request for Tsunade to heal his arms, he was seen wearing long purple robes with a loose pink vest, as well as a off-grey kimono with a polo neck in Zaku's flashback. During his time with the Akatsuki, he wore the standard red and black Akatsuki robes. In his room, he is sometimes seen wearing a mahogany shirt with a design of two white snakes on the back of the sleeves to the back on both sides, as well as black pants.
Orochimaru was often described as twisted by a large number of people, including Tsunade. Jiraiya speculated that this was due to the fact that both of his parents died when he was at a very young age, along with his horror for Tsunade losing Nawaki and later shedding tears when she lost Dan, imply that Orochimaru grew to disdain the fragility of human life and how it affected those still living, which lead him to desire immortality. To that end, the primary purpose of Orochimaru's human experiments is to test what modifications the human body could endure and harness a subject's unique abilities for himself. Once accomplishing this goal, Orochimaru had hoped to be worthy of the title of "ultimate being", unable to die and able to achieve his secondary goal to learn every ninja technique in the world that would normally take many lifetimes to obtain.
According to Sasuke, becoming cruel with any good he had as a member of Team Hiruzen gone, Orochimaru's agenda made him develop a god complex and valued himself while delighting in striking terror in his first impressions. Though causing conflict to ease his boredom, Orochimaru seems to have no interest in wars started by others.[15] His charisma also attracts a number of followers, many of which he would not hesitate to send on potential suicide missions if for his own personal benefit, expressing some remorse if unable to properly complete a task. However, as shown in the anime, Orochimaru can callously discard those whom he become bored with despite having commissioned for them personally, such as the underwater ninja project and Guren's Crystal Release.
Taking Sasuke as an apprentice, seeing a him as a prodigy like himself, Orochimaru intended to take the youth's body to obtain the Sharingan to reach another step in his goal of immortality. This goal has developed to the point of obsession. However, despite knowing that Sasuke is willing to do anything for revenge, including sacrificing his own body, Orochimaru did anticipate treachery from his disciple and showed only a small level of surprise when it actually occurred. Orochimaru also had an initial disdain toward Naruto Uzumaki, believing him to be a poor excuse of a ninja until he defeated Kabuto with the his Rasengan. Despite attempting to kill Naruto at the time after coming to the realisation that he would become a threat to him in the future, Orochimaru became interested in Naruto's development, provoking Naruto during their battle to see his full abilities at the time. Though coming to hate his home village, orchestrating a few attempts to destroy it, Orochimaru despised his former Akatsuki colleagues more. Throughout Part II, if Orochimaru was not busy with Sasuke's development, he would try to cripple the Akatsuki's operations, seen in the "Sai and Sasuke Arc" as well as the "Three-Tails Arc". He express delight over the death of Sasori and later convinced Sasuke from killing Team Kakashi so they would thin out the Akatsuki membership.

Background Information:
History: Orochimaru acts as the primary antagonist for the first part of the series. After his parents died when he was young, Orochimaru's only source of affection was received from his teacher, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, and his two teammates. As they grew older Orochimaru, Jiraiya, and Tsunade collectively became known as the "Legendary Three Ninja" due to their exemplary ninja abilities in the Second Shinobi War against Hanzo. Much of Orochimaru's arsenal of abilities deals with snakes. By summoning them to his side during battle, Orochimaru can battle multiple opponents at once and simultaneously keep himself out of harm's way. Through his experimentations he has also been able to add some snake-like characteristics to his own body.
Orochimaru, however, craved more power than could be obtained from training with his master, and began abducting villagers of Konohagakure for various experiments with Yamato among his surviving victims.Unwilling to bring himself to harm Orochimaru upon learning of his actions, Hiruzen allowed his former pupil to escape and flee the village. In time Orochimaru joined the criminal organization Akatsuki and became partners with a fellow Rouge Ninja named Sasori. However, after his attempt to steal the body of Itachi Uchiha through a forbidden jutsu so as to gain the Sharingan failed, Orochimaru is forced to leave the Akatsuki. Orochimaru then founded his own ninja village, Otogakure, populated with ninja loyal to him. From there, Orochimaru proceeds towards his goal to become the "ultimate being". Because a human's lifespan does not allow enough time to learn every jutsu, Orochimaru uses his forbidden jutsu to steal his victim's body. By living throughout the ages, only needing to transfer into a new host when the current becomes unusable, Orochimaru becomes essentially immortal and able to retain all the knowledge he gains. Also learning of Senjutsu while researching the abilities of Jugo, Orochimaru's inability to properly utilize it lead him to create the Cursed Seal jutsu by infusing his chakra into Jugo's extracted enzymes. During the Chunin Exams, Orochimaru plans the invasion of Konoha was the ninja of Sunagakure to not only kill Hiruzen but also claim the body of Itachi's brother Sasuke Uchiha, whom he marked with the Cursed Seal prior. In the end, having secretly murdered the Fourth Kazakage to get close to his mentor, Orochimaru is forced to retreat when Third Hokage sacrifices himself to take away Orochimaru's ability to perform jutsu. This causes his forces to pull back as Sunagakure later learns of Orochimaru's treachery. Wanting to regain the ability to use jutsu, Orochimaru attempted to get aid from Tsunade before seeking out another way to cure himself. When all his efforts prove unsuccessful, Orochimaru sends his Sound Four to fetch Sasuke, hoping that a body-transfer will allow him to use his arms again. Though he waits as long as he can, Sasuke takes too long to arrive and Orochimaru is forced to switch to the body of one of his prisoners instead. Once Sasuke arrives, Orochimaru decides to train him instead until the day that he will be able to take the body for himself.
Two-and-a-half years later, in the second part of the series, Orochimaru confronts Naruto and his friends when they attempted to track down Sasuke. Taunting Naruto, Orochimaru manages to hold his own after the youth is being consumed by the Nine Tails chakra. Later, when Sasuke attempts to kill Naruto, Orochimaru stays his hand by pointing out the boy's use in taking down the Akatsuki and thus lessening the number of enemies he has. Eventually, when his host body begins to fail him, Orochimaru is left with no other choice but to proceed with the body-switch sooner than expected. Sasuke, unwilling to give himself up to a weakened Orochimaru, fights the attempted body-switch. Using the Sharingan to void Orochimaru's technique, Sasuke retains control of his body while trapping Orochimaru's soul within him, giving him access to many of Orochimaru's abilities in the process. During Sasuke's later fight with Itachi, Sasuke is left too weak to continue suppressing Orochimaru's soul, allowing Orochimaru to escape and try to take his body again. Before he can do so, Itachi, using the legendary sword of Totsuka, seals him away. In the aftermath of Kabuto's defeat and needing answers, Sasuke reveals Orochimaru's survival as the Cursed Seals are revealed to hold a copy of Orochimaru's consciousness in it. Using the Cursed Seal Orochimaru placed on his former student, Anko Mitarashi, Sasuke releases Orochimaru and gives him a new body which Jugo provides with an absorbed part of Kabuto's flesh. After Sasuke shows him the scroll that Suigetsu had given him, Orochimaru asked Sasuke why he wants to meet the ones the scroll refers to and agrees to take him to find them at a place Sasuke knows well after hearing his answer, being interested in how he had changed since they last met.

Stephen & Toni Haselton give $3 million to help Cottage reach Campaign goal
January 22, 2009 The fundraising Campaign to rebuild Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital has received a second substantial gift from Montecito residents Stephen & Toni Haselton for $3 million.
This recent Haselton donation comes at the close of the not-for-profit hospital's largest fundraising effort ever-a five-year drive to raise $100 million to support the rebuilding of the largest acute-care hospital on the California coast between Los Angeles and the Bay Area.
The Haseltons' $3 million commitment represents the "capstone" gift that will allow Cottage to meet and exceed its $100 million Campaign fundraising goal.
"We have a tremendous amount of confidence in Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, and we are very proud to be associated with the hospital and its caregiving team," the Haseltons explained. "It was very important to us to structure a significant commitment that would help the hospital reach and exceed its $100 million Campaign goal."
"This is an incredibly generous and important gift from Stephen and Toni Haselton, one that will serve as the capstone to a community-wide campaign to rebuild Cottage Hospital," said Ron Werft, president and chief executive officer of Cottage Health System. "On behalf of the Cottage Health System Board of Directors, I want to express my gratitude for their philanthropic spirit and belief in our mission."
Since the Campaign's launch in 2004, the Haseltons have made pledges that total more than $5.5 million. In early 2007, the Haseltons made their first gift to the Campaign for $2.5 million. In honor of this gift, the new neonatal intensive care unit at Cottage Children's Hospital will be named after two of the Haseltons' grandchildren, Fiona and Sarah Haselton. Cottage Children's Hospital, which will be located on the third floor of the new Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, will include all specialized pediatric units, and it will be adjacent to Women's Services.
Along with their generous Campaign gifts, the Haseltons also have created a fund to support the special needs of families whose children are being cared for at Cottage Children's Hospital.

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are definitely starting to come back to life. In fact, we've recently been retained on a couple of new sell-side, middle-market M&A transactions. Accordingly, I thought I'd briefly share with you the five biggest mistakes I've seen entrepreneurs make in connection with selling their company, based on my 16+ years of M&A experience.
Mistake #1: Not Creating a Competitive Environment. A lot of entrepreneurs make the huge mistake of talking to just one potential buyer (usually a competitor, a vendor or some other company they have a relationship with) and then negotiating the terms of the sale. Indeed, there is nothing that will give an entrepreneur more leverage in connection with the sale of their business than a competitive bidding process (or the perception of one). Bidders can be played-off of each other and, as a result, the entrepreneur will be able to strike the best possible deal.
This was recently demonstrated in spades in connection with the sale of 3PAR Inc., as a bidding war ensued between titans Hewlett-Packard and Dell. H-P eventually won the battle with a $2.1 billion offer ($1 billion more than the original agreement between 3PAR and Dell). Needless to say, 3PAR's investment banker, Frank Quattrone, did an extraordinary job playing H-P and Dell off each other.
This is why I often recommend to entrepreneurs that they retain a strong investment banker to help them sell their company. Most entrepreneurs don't have the skill set or experience to play buyers off of each other; and even though investment bankers can be expensive, it's well worth it if they can help negotiate the best deal for the entrepreneur and otherwise add value to the process.
Mistake #2: Not Negotiating the Material Terms of the Sale in the Letter of Intent. Entrepreneurs must understand that their strongest leverage as a seller is prior to the execution of the letter of intent (LOI). This is the time-frame when bidders must be played off of each other. Not negotiating the material terms of the deal in the LOI is the most common mistake I see from the sell-side.
Once the LOI is executed, all of the entrepreneur's leverage is gone because he generally won't be able to shop his company around to any other potential buyers for a period of 60-90 days due to what's called a "no-shop provision." So prior to executing the LOI is when the seller wants to create a competitive environment (or the perception of one) and have the prospective buyers compete on price and terms.
One buyer, for example, may offer a higher purchase price, but require that part of the purchase price be put into escrow and/or a "cap" on liability (which I discuss below) equal to the purchase price; another buyer may offer less, but not require an escrow and accept a 10% cap on liability. Accordingly, prior to choosing a buyer, the seller should negotiate and weigh all of the material terms of the offer, and the LOI should reflect those terms.
Mistake #3: Selling Assets Instead of Stock. Entrepreneurs should structure the sale of their company as a stock sale, not the sale of the assets, for three major reasons: (i) tax savings if the company is a "C" corporation (i.e., to avoid "double-taxation"); (ii) to pass the company's undisclosed liabilities onto the buyer (subject, of course, to the indemnification provisions); and (iii) to keep it simpler and cleaner – i.e., it generally requires less documentation (including obtaining consents) selling stock and thus less time to close (which means less legal fees).
Clearly, every deal must be structured with the assistance of experienced tax counsel; however, as a seller, you should always be thinking about selling stock, not assets.
Mistake #4: Not Running the Negotiations Through the Lawyers. This may sound a bit self-serving, but entrepreneurs should leave the negotiating to a strong corporate lawyer. Entrepreneurs are generally no match for sophisticated private equity guys or corporate development guys who do deals for a living.
Accordingly, a smart entrepreneur will stay above the fray and let his corporate lawyer run the deal. I used to represent private equity guys and hedge fund guys in NYC, and they sometimes would do an end-run around the target's lawyers (and even criticize them) and try to negotiate key issues without lawyers. Entrepreneurs must thus be aware of this game and try to avoid "side-bar" negotiations with the principal(s) on the other side.
This approach is particularly important where the entrepreneur will be staying-on after the closing; the goal is not to poison the relationship with testy, acrimonious negotiations (i.e., let the lawyers fight it out).
Mistake #5: Not Capping the Seller's Potential Liability. Obviously, an entrepreneur wants to sleep well after he sells his company (and enjoy the fruits of his labor). Accordingly, it is critical that certain key provisions be inserted into the acquisition agreement to protect him post-closing. One such provision is a cap on liability, which, as noted above, should ideally be negotiated in the LOI.
A cap basically means that if something goes wrong post-closing and it turns out, for example, that the seller has breached a representation and warranty in the agreement, the buyer can only recover up to a certain amount.
Sellers should strive for a cap of 10-20% of the purchase price and should also try to minimize any buyer carve-outs. The message to the buyer is simple: inherent in any business are certain ongoing risks; thus, once the business is sold, the buyer should only be able to recover a limited amount of the sale proceeds (absent fraud).
I hope the foregoing is helpful. Selling a business can be a very difficult and emotional experience, particularly for first-time entrepreneurs. If you can avoid the five mistakes above, I am confident that the sales process will be a lot more productive and beneficial to you. Please call me if you have any questions (415-979-9998). Thanks, Scott

This biography from the Archives of AskART:
Born in Cody, Wyoming to Scotch-Irish parents, Jackson Pollock was dubbed "Jack the Dripper" (
magazine 1956) for his revolutionary technique of gestural painting that freed generations of American artists from academic strictures. He used dissonant, garish colors, and applied paint with energetic circular motions to large canvases so that his work exuded physical energy. It also, according to many art historians, reflected his own turbulent, manic depressive personality.
Pollock was raised in Arizona and California and helped his father in the late 1920s with a surveying job on the north rim of the Grand Canyon. It is thought that his life-long compulsive fear and fascination of vast, open spaces "probably originated at this time". (Anschutz Collection) During these years, he and his brothers investigated Indian mounds near Phoenix by the home of a family named Minsch where Pollock's mother worked as a housekeeper. From those experiences, Pollock later used occasional Indian symbolism in his paintings. He also had ongoing interest in Southwest Indians and under his bed kept twelve volumes on these subjects of illustrated annual reports from the Smithsonian Institution.
After living as a youth in Arizona and not finishing high school, he left to join his brother, Charles Cecil Pollock, at the Art Students League in New York. He never again lived in the West but went through on visits to California. His nostalgia for the West persisted, and he frequently dressed in cowboy garb; some thought his personality traits were akin to those of legendary cowboys--a loner, melancholy, rash, impulsive, quiet, and alcoholic.
He went to the Art Students League with the intention of studying with Thomas Hart Benton, the most celebrated artist of the Depression and later a well-known Regionalist painter from Missouri. Benton took a particular interest in Pollock because Benton preferred friendships with "virile and honest" people from the West and Midwest like himself.
Benton had the greatest influence on Pollack, teaching that the artist's experience with painting was of more importance than the resulting work. Benton promoted theories of rhythmic balance, dynamic sequence, and "muscular action patterns," all of which Pollock utilized later in his work.
Pollock, from his earliest days studying art in California, was also much influenced by techniques of El Greco, Spanish painter, whose rhythmic repetition of forms he adopted. In the summers in the 1930s, Pollock would "hit the highway," often going through Oklahoma and the Panhandle of Texas, and from these experiences he did prints showing cowboy and farm activity. He also had work as a W.P.A. artist, working in the Mural Division, which required one painting a month for a public building.
By the late 1930s, he was seeking professional treatment for alcoholic depression. He did many expressive paintings, which he said were intended to free him of the yoke of Benton's influence and from his mental problems.
He also came under the influence of the Mexican muralists David Siqueiros, Jose Orozco, and Diego Rivera, whose extensive use of symbolism Pollock utilized in his large-scale paintings. In the 1940s, his emotional turmoil led him to themes that were mythic and heroic in highly abstract styles including Cubism, Surrealist automatism, Abstract Expressionism, and the biomorphic forms of Joan Miro.
For him, a turning point for public recognition came with his friendship with Peggy Guggenheim, wealthy New York heiress whose money built the Guggenheim Museum. In November, 1943, she gave him a solo exhibition and a contract guaranteeing him one-hundred fifty dollars a month for a year, freeing him from financial straits. She also commissioned him to decorate her apartment.
This first Guggenheim exhibition was followed by two others for Pollock. For her, this was the beginning of promoting her "war babies," unknown American artists whom she thought had promise, and for him, her show of confidence in his work was a great boost to his ego and reputation.
Pollock married Lee Krasner, a Russian Jewish artist, with whom he had a crisis-driven relationship but a sharing of interest in mysticism and avant-garde painting. They lived at East Hampton on Long Island, and the move away from the city seemed by 1946 to have a freeing effect on his painting.
Much influenced by her theories and encouragement, he began painting increasingly with drips, smears, and giant circular motions over smaller geometric shapes. This technique seemed particularly inspired by readying for an exhibit in 1947 arranged by Betty Parsons, who took over Peggy Guggenheim's Gallery. He made a transition to mural size works asserting that easel painting was a dying form. He laid canvases on the floor, where he felt nearer his work, and feeling totally into the work, likened it to Indian sand painting.
He applied paint with sticks, trowels, knives, and by dripping paint. He spoke of the painting taking on a life of its own, and a sense of pure harmony with the creation. It set a new standard in American art, especially when Pollock abandoned brushes completely for dripping and pouring paint to avoid the disruption of reloading the paint brush. He said he had a general notion of what he was about before beginning but that the painting also took on a life of its own.
For a period in the late 1940s and early 1950s, he abstained from alcohol and lived quietly on Long Island. However, his success with these works seems to have paralyzed him, and he felt his privacy eroded.
magazine had a feature on him suggesting that he was "the greatest living painter in the United States." He returned to drink, which seemed to trigger his creativity, but his paintings began to lack color and were horrifying with eyes and totems. They were done scroll-like with thin black paint on huge bolts of unsized duck cloth. He also did scary self portraits, which revealed himself as tense, confused and despairing.
Financially neither he nor Krasner did well and lived off wealthy friends, and the only time he made serious money was 1956, the last year of his life. However, by then, he was producing virtually nothing and was drinking constantly. On August 27, 1956, he died in a one-car auto crash, in which one other person, his female passenger was also killed. He had been a turbulent soul, stilled by the alcoholism that so dominated his life.
However, his influence on American art is monumental, reinforced by the fact that
magazine selected him as one of the top twenty-five most important-ever western artists. According to the article, he "shattered pictorial space."

This biography from the Archives of AskART:
Jackson Pollock was born in 1912 in Cody, Wyoming to Scotch-Irish parents; he was the youngest of five brothers. He was raised in Arizona and California; his father tried his hand at ranching, farming and inn-keeping all around the West. Jackson worked as a farmhand, milking cows, plowing and cutting alfalfa. Around 1925 his father was employed as a surveyor, and Jackson helped his father with a job on the north rim of the Grand Canyon. The family moved to Riverside, California, and Jackson enrolled at Manual Arts High School in Los Angeles.
When he was eighteen years old, he moved to New York City to study with Thomas Hart Benton. His brother, Charles, and later Sanford both studied painting in the same period and the three shared menial jobs to support themselves. Jackson's term with Benton was not very successful; Benton considered him to be unexceptional.
In 1940 Pollock came to the attention of a New York gallery who invited him and two other painters to exhibit. One of the painters was Willem de Kooning, the other was Lee Krasner who became Pollock's most enthusiastic booster and eventually his wife.
Pollock, together with Robert Motherwell, first experimented with tearing and clipping paper in 1943 when Peggy Guggenheim invited them to participate in a collage exhibition at her newly opened "Art of This Century" Gallery. Although the show led to a contract with the gallery and his first one-man exhibition, Pollock only sporadically returned to the medium. After their 1943 collaboration, Motherwell had remarked on Pollock's intense concentration and his enjoyment in savagely clipping and searing paper as they progressed. Peggy Guggenheim gave him a show, a mural commission and a stipend of $150 a month for four years.
Lee and Jackson bought a dilapidated house in The Springs on Long Island, and Jackson threw himself into restoring the house. Unable to afford a car, they rode bicycles everywhere. Pollock's best teacher was his wife. In the late 1940's she suspended her career as painter to look after Jackson's career, to teach him to present himself properly in the prominent place he was already assuming in the galleries.
Peggy Guggenheim moved to Italy in 1947, and discontinued her stipend to the Pollocks. They were forced to live on the sale of a handful of paintings. But it was a time of great creativity for Pollock. He would start work in the afternoon and stay in his studio far into the night. After several months of this he would stop painting to recharge himself. During these non-painting periods he would garden, go clamming, frequent local bars or stay home and listen to music. Although usually shy and taciturn, he enjoyed talking with the local workmen. He often contributed paintings as well as his own homemade apple pies to annual village benefits.
By 1950, Pollock began to be a celebrity, but his increased fame only caused him to become depressed and uneasy. An off-and-on drinker since he was eighteen, he plunged into bouts of drunkenness. In the summer of 1956 he seemed to be putting his house in order. At the age of forty-four, he appeared exhausted from years of hard living and from the doubts and conflicts within him. He was killed in an accident on his way home from a concert; speeding along the road, he hit a bump and was thrown from the car and killed instantly.

Comments about Suunto M4 Watch:
This was my first heart rate monitor and it made a huge difference in how I worked out and my rate of improvement. The built in coach feature made it super easy to get into a routine and keep on track. While training I could see in real time my heart rate and more. After the workout I could then see all my data and track my progress. It also has a weight loss program on it so no matter what kind of condition you are in this is a great tool for getting off the couch.

Comments about Suunto M4 Watch:
I bought this watch hoping it would motivate me to start running. All I have to say is "wow!" I was really impressed by how helpful it was. It gives accurate readings on heart rate and even tells you when to slow down or speed up. More often than not, I needed to slow down, which allowed me to run further and burn more calories. I never knew that I was pushing myself too hard before.
It comes with a separate waist belt which is really comfortable and barely noticeable. Now I want to run all the time! The only drawback is that it doesn't tell distance. Overall, love it!

May 7, 2014 —Just like other major international cities such as Paris, Amsterdam, London, and Berlin, Montréal now has its own urban beach. Known as the Clock Tower Beach—located at the base of its namesake erected in 1921 to commemorate the brave Merchant Navy sailors who disappeared during World War I—this new strand of coastline tranquility can accommodate up to 800 people.The actual Clock Tower, at 45 m high, offers spectacular views of Montréal, while the stretch of silky sand at its base provides a fun and friendly environment with a unique holiday atmosphere, beach umbrellas, brightly coloured chairs and fixtures, showers and mist stations, a wooden boardwalk, and a refreshment stand, all accessible via a giant stairway ramp.Access to the beach is free from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. (after which time admission is charged). It is open to the public on weekends only until mid-June, and everyday starting June 21.Come evening, the Clock Tower Beach comes alive with musical evenings. What's more, La Buvette par Apollois back again this summer to serve up a delicious menu of fresh summertime fare, ideal to enjoy on the terrace or savour on the beach.
A stroll along the Clock Tower Quay gives locals and visitors alike the opportunity to take in the magnificent panorama composed of the mighty St. Lawrence River, the impressive Jacques-Cartier Bridge, Alexander Calder's iconic sculpture entitled "Man" (commissioned for Expo '67) on Île Sainte-Hélène (a beautiful island in itself), and picturesque Old Montréal.

MSNBC Continues to Push 'Nothing to See Here' Narrative About Libya Debacle
In the October 1 broadcast of NewsNation with Tamron Hall, a segment featuring former State Department Middle East officer Joel Rubin focused on how the Romney campaign was "trying to put all of these things in a big pot hoping that something picks up steam" concerning President Obama's foreign policy. Yep, it's still the same game with some in the media — which is to trivialize what can hurt the president to prevent it from becoming news.
Rubin said of Romney and his team that they were throwing a lot of things "against the wall" and seeing what "sticks.": : Rubin continued by saying that the politicization of Ambassador Steven's death is a travesty.: And the president skipping out on intelligence briefings isn't?: While he did say that the matter of the threat assessment is a "fair question," Rubin also noted that Ambassador Stevens received the same briefings and knew the risks involved being stationed there.: It was a rather crude way of trivializing the president's role in not preventing this terrorist attack.
After all, there are many legitimate policy issues that are not being discussed in the broadcast media, like how the Benghazi consulate compound was inadequately secured given its situation in an unstable country awash in weapons and Islamist militants. In aSeptember 24: CNN Security Clearance blog, Suzanne Kelly, Elise Labott, and Mike Mount reported that:
: The mission was a rented villa and considered a temporary facility by the agency, which allowed a waiver that permitted fewer guards and security measures than a standard embassy or consulate, according to the officials.
There was talk about constructing a permanent facility, which would require a building that met U.S. security and legal standards, the officials said.
Allowing a waiver would have been a decision made with input from Washington, Libyan officials and the ambassador, according to diplomatic security experts.

'Someone made the decision that the mission in Benghazi was so critical that they waived the standard security requirements, which presents unique challenges to the diplomatic security service as you can imagine,' said Fred Burton, vice president for Intelligence at STRATFOR, an intelligence analysis group.
Concerning resolve, it's been over sixteen days after that tragic attack and the FBI is nowhere near the compound due to safety concerns.
Josh Rogin at Foreign Policy Magazine: on September 28: quoted Cheryl Croft Bennett, the mother of slain ex-Navy SEAL Tyrone Bennett – one of the four Americans killed in the consulate on 9/11 — as saying: : " [I] don't want to ever politicize the loss of my son in Libya, but it has been 16 days [at the time] and the FBI has yet to get to Benghazi to begin their investigation…apparently they have made it to Tripoli but haven't been allowed to enter Benghazi. Meanwhile, the diplomatic outpost where Tyrone and [former SEAL]: Glen [Doherty]died was not and is not secured. : Absolutely unacceptable."
Bennett was apparently referring to reports by CNN and other outlets noting that the FBI team sent to investigate the Benghazi assault has yet to arrive in the city, and the consulate remains unguarded.
Rubin also comically reiterated the ultimate truth that President Obama's foreign policy is "much more popular that any other recent president in time.": These outlandish statements can be made since there is very little media coverage about the Libyan terrorist attack and the security missteps by the Obama administration which left the Americans there as sitting ducks.

The core of New York University is the academic enterprise. The best students and faculty are drawn to the University by the allure of being part of a compelling intellectual and creative enterprise — a community of scholars characterized by collaboration, innovation, and incandescent teaching. NYU students get the experience of attending a Global Network University, anchored in New York City but with nodes throughout the world. Learning opportunities present themselves both in and out of the classroom, befitting an institution that is and always has been "in and of the city". And now our students and faculty are global citizens, exposed to culture, students, faculties and research opportunities throughout the world.
More than 15 schools and colleges, 11 global academic centers, an NYU Abu Dhabi portal campus, and an NYU Shanghai portal campus opening in fall 2013 comprise the New York University academic community. Strengthened through its arts and science core, a guiding principle of the University's academic enterprise is interconnectedness. NYU encourages dialogue between departments and schools, operating under the thinking that barriers between disciplines must not be barriers to learning. This collaboration continues to develop and uphold rigorous norms and standards while taking new pathways to connect traditional fields in non-traditional ways.
NYU's stimulating academic climate is fostered by its diversity. The student body comes from all corners of the globe, every economic echelon and pursues distinct intellectual experiences. Programs of study are diverse, but share a common expectation for high achievement and the goal of engaging world challenges through a diversity of disciplines. NYU draws even greater vigor from even greater diversity. Faculty members are world-famous scholars and researchers, winners of Nobel, Craaford and Pulitzer Prizes; MacArthur, Guggenheim and Fulbright Fellowships; and Oscar, Emmy and Tony Awards. In its academic enterprise, the entire University community pursues the academics of the future, securing New York University's place as the future of idea capital.
From leading international centers for research and education, to one of the most technologically advanced lecture halls and screening facilities in New York City, the varied institutes and centers at NYU serve as critical points of convergence for the University experience.

I always hear: "Intel did ... Intel developer did ... new support for Intel ... Intel ... Intel ... Intel ..." ( the same in the git log ). What is about AMD/Nvidia? I know that AMD has got 1 or more ( I guess more ) developer special for Mesa-Dri but he is not going to commit as much as the Intel developer does. Why not? And what is about Nvidia? Are they so lanzy that they cant employ 1 or 2 developer for Mesa-dri? I mean its nice to see, that Intel GPU will get a (in relation) awesome OpenGL support but I think for real 3D gaming and programming AMD and Nvidia is more common. I only got a Netbook with an Intel Chipset-GPU, but this wont take any benefits of the current development.
I hope that AMD ( and more important NVIDIA!!! ) will get their hands on it now and not only commit a patch once in a week. ( When I compare ... I have a 40h week and when I only have 1 resault in a week, I will be fired!!! <.< )
Maybe a AMD dev could give some status updates and maybe tell us why it is taking such a long time and why Intel is so damn fast! o.O
P.s. I dont want to bother anyone. I like to see that developing is going on. But the AMD devs are no volenteers, they are employed. So in my opinion there are requierments that they may work a bit harder and more.

Blog Entry:
March 25, 2013 2:32 PM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
A quick-hit edition:
Forbes.com includes Cleveland in
this feature/slideshow
about 15 U.S. cities that are revitalizing their central business districts to lure young professionals.
"Today, more than $3.5 billion is currently invested in furthering the area's redevelopment. The Global Center for Health Innovation and a 750,000 square foot convention center will open this summer, totaling $465 million," Forbes.com notes.
Downtown's population "nearly doubled in the two decades ending in 2010, according to Census data, and the area welcomed the biggest percentage increase in population growth of any district in the greater city as a whole."
The website adds that from the fourth quarter of 2011 through the fourth quarter of 2012, the number of housing units grew about 13%, according to the
Downtown Cleveland Alliance
. An additional 715 units are expected to come online in 2013.
Forest City Enterprises
is playing a key role in the continued "de-malling" of the Washington, D.C., area, according to
this story
The Washington Post
The Cleveland-based company's Washington unit plans an upgrade of Ballston Common Mall in Arlington, Va., "that would include adding a row of sidewalk retail along Wilson Boulevard and building 306 residential units above the property," the newspaper reports.
Thomas W. Henneberry, chief operating officer at Forest City Washington, tells
The Post
he has begun discussing the future of the 579,000-square-foot mall with county officials and pitching the idea of a reconfiguring it with prospective restaurant and shop owners.
In trying to open the mall up to the street and add housing to it,
The Post
says, "Forest City is pursuing a similar strategy to other mall owners in the area who have watched shoppers migrate to more urban, mixed-use projects."
A new
from CardHub.com, cited in
Wall Street Journal
, says that more than 50% of U.S. consumers "don't keep a budget — and more than one in five don't have a good idea of their spending."
And Clevelanders are among the worst offenders.
The Journal
says CardHub ranked the 30 biggest metro areas based on six factors: credit scores; debt-to-income ratios; combined bankruptcy and foreclosure rates; amount of "revolving" (credit card) debt adjusted for cost of living; total debt-to-median home price ratio; and non-housing expenses adjusted for cost of living, relative to average income.
The best budgeters were in Boston.
Cleveland was No. 5 on the 'worst budgeters' list, behind Orlando, Tampa, Cincinnati and Atlanta.
USA Today
rounds up
what it considers the country's 20 best athlete-owned restaurants, and one of them belongs to a former member of the Cleveland Browns.
At No. 8 on the list is
Bubba's Q
, the barbeque joint in Avon owned by Al "Bubba" Baker.
After retiring from professional football in 1990, Mr. Baker, a defensive lineman, and his wife, Sabrina, opened a catering business featuring "Southern-style barbecue cuisine."
The story notes that Bubba's Q "has since done pretty well," earning honors from, among others,
Cleveland Magazine
for "Best Ribs" and "Best Barbecue Restaurant" from 2009 to 2011.

Perfection Quotes and Sayings
Remind yourself that it's okay not to be perfect.
I'm not a perfect girl. My hair doesn't always stay in place and I spill things a lot. I'm pretty clumsy and sometimes I have a broken heart. My friends and I sometimes fight and some days nothing goes right. But when I think about it and take a step back I remember how amazing life truly is and that maybe. Just maybe. I like being imperfect!
The perfect time to start something never arrives.
People say: "Find good people and leave the bad ones." But I say, find the good in people and ignore the bad in them. Because "No one is perfect".
Don't dream of being perfect, work for excellence instead.
– Dr T.P.Chia
I owe no explanations for my flaws. I don't have to justify my mistakes, my past, or my insecurities. I am growing and learning. Let me live.
A man is not perfect if he doesn't improve.
I might not be someone's first choice, but I am a great choice. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not, because I'm good at being me. I might not be proud of some of the things I've done in the past, but I'm proud of who I am today. I may not be perfect, but I don't need to be. I am the way God made me. Take me as I am or watch me as I walk away.
I am not perfect. Are you? Let us accept the fact that nobody is perfect. Let us learn to accept our imperfections as well as those of others.
You'll never be perfect. But you'll always be unique.
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.
– Gerard Way
All is always well – all things considered!
Society taught me that no matter what size I am, I will never be good enough. I'll always be too skinny, too fat, too short, too tall…Too this, too that.
I'm not saying I'm perfect; in fact I know I'm far from it; I'm just saying I'm worth it.
I'm not a perfect person, I make a lot of mistakes but still I love those people who stay with me after knowing how I really am.
Never fake yourself just to look perfect because perfection is never real and reality is never perfect.
You're not going to always say and do the right things, and that's fine. You're not here to be perfect, but to be real.
As a leader, when you demand absolute perfection, you are also ensuring cheating and unethical behavior by your subordinates.
Some say "Find the good people and ignore the bad ones." but really it's "Find the good in people and ignore the bad in them." Nobody's perfect.
Perfection seems sterile; it is final, no mystery in it; it's a product of an assembly line.
– Dejan Stojanovic
To accomplish the perfect perfection, a little imperfection helps.
– Dejan Stojanovic
Everything that looks too perfect is too perfect to be perfect.
– Dejan Stojanovic
