It's the evening of September 16 and there is a palpable buzz around Gallery Arts India on Fifth Avenue, New York; a certain nervous excitement, the kind that would befit the arrival of the Warrior Christ moments before Armageddon. In a rare occasion, India's legendary SH Raza is set to unveil some of his new (and old) artworks outside his home-base of Paris, in an exhibition entitled 'Prakriti: Nature And Its Elements', alongside the paintings of artist Sujata Bajaj.
"India is full of rich icons and symbols that have no parallel elsewhere. Consider the Purush-Prakriti symbols that are everywhere in our temple sculptures. Or the idea of the Kundalini, the source of energy. Or Pancha Tatava - the five elements that constitute Nature," says Raza. "I use these icons in my work and I try to understand how they relate to each other."
Having moved to Paris over fifty years ago, Raza reminisces, "I was never interested in going to London or New York. But Paris always attracted me. When I came to Paris in 1950, I spent a lot of time at the museums and the galleries and talking to other artists. There were a number of Indian artists in Paris in those days - Paritosh Sen, Ram Kumar, and later Akbar Padamsee came…Cartier-Bresson had also said to me that I should study the paintings of Cezanne and I spent years trying to understand how Cezanne constructed his paintings, not to copy but to find my own language. France taught me how to paint."
Of course what's become synonymous with Raza is the 'bindu'. "Starting in 1975, I started focusing on the Bindu. And that has been the central focus of my work in the years since," he says of his calling card. "Bindu to me is about beginning, it is the seed from which the tree grows, it is the egg from which comes the child, it is to painting what Om is to meditation and music."
Feeling that Indian art is currently seeing a Renaissance, adds Raza, "And I am very hopeful." He pauses to reflect. "Painting is like doing Sadhana; you have to do it for years before you find your language. I want to paint in the way that Mozart wrote music. Mozart would say 'I want to find notes that are happy together.' Similarly, I want to find colours that are happy together."
Raza facts...
Was born in 1922 in Babaria, MP.
Founding member of the Progressive Artists Group in India.
Awarded the Prix de la Critique in Paris in 1956, and the Padma Shri in 1981.
His highest priced work, Lot 255, sold for Rs 63,08,640.

Nathaniel FickThis collection rings with truth, the sort of truth that mere observers of war find hard to capture. Generals and journalists and politicians -- even the best of them -- simply have a different point of view. Operation Homecoming relives five tumultuous years through the eyes of the men and women who've done the fighting. When asked why he chose to participate in the project, a Special Forces soldier replied, "This is the first time anyone's asked us to write about what we think of all that's going on."Let's hope it's not the last.

L'Imgarr: High Class Hotel
Superb. The hotel oozes class and luxury from the moment you walk in. Its position at the top of a hill overlooking the harbour gives great views, especially from the two pool areas (there's a rooftop pool and a "cliff top" pool).
Our room was more of a suite, having a large living room, corridor off which was the bathroom, large bedroom and then balcony overlooking the pool.
The hotel has all of the facilities and services you would expect. A porter delivered our luggage, the receptionist showed us to our room and showed us all of the facilities. There is a fully stocked mini bar, room service (both at very good price).
There's also the "bed turn-back" where the maid comesin and turns back your blanket for you and leaves a chocolate on your pillow. All very nice, and this maid even laid out our night attire for us!
Buffet breakfast was excellent, and they made (to order) the most perfect poached eggs I've ever had!
Location, style, class, price, service.
We booked via Octopus Travel and got the room for 54 UK pounds per night. This was well below the published rack rate for the room.

"The Ex" is a zombie shooting target that was created by Zombie Industries. It's a fun concept and it's different from other targets in the sense that it actually bleeds. Of course, it's not real blood. They're fashioned based on zombies after all. Its makers describe it as being "hand painted to accurately resemble an infected human that just finished gnawing your neighbor Zed's leg, to give you that realistic look."
Zombie Inc. is getting a bit of flak from people because of the target's name, which implies that it could be your ex you're shooting at when you're feeling particularly pissy. They should probably just drop the name because the mess isn't worth it and it actually makes shooting practice fun again. People don't have to pretend like they're shooting their exes to hit the target–and besides, most ex-couples I know still get a lot of lovin' in between the sheets from time to time.

OHS's latest powerlifiting title 'a special thing'
Oxford's lifters and coach had a good idea even before the final count was tallied. Six lifters helped the Chargers pile up 28 points in the morning session of Saturday's MHSAA Class 5A powerlifting meet in Jackson. With four more lifters still to take their turn in the afternoon, it was going to be difficult for anybody to stop Oxford's chase for another title (April 20, 2015, Page 6)
OHS boys powerlifting claim third straight state title
The Oxford High boys powerlifting team pulled off the three-peat. The Chargers made it back-to-back-to-back MHSAA Class 5A championships at the state meet Saturday in Jackson. Oxford finished with 44 total points as nine of the Chargers' 10 lifters medaled in their respective weight classes. (April 19, 2015, Page 1B)
Oxford powerlifters aiming for three-peat at state meet
Oxford's boys powerlifting team has some pieces missing from its recent state championship teams, but the Chargers are counting on their depth and experience to deliver yet another MHSAA Class 5A title. The Chargers will try to win their third straight state crown Saturday in Jackson and have the numbers to make them the favorite. Ten lifters qualified for the state meet at North Half last month, the most of any 5A team and the same number Oxford carried to Jackson last season. (April 17, 2015, Page 1B)

November 2012, TruckingInfo.com - Feature
by Steven Spencer, Contributor
These days, transportation companies are caught between the proverbial driver shortage and their CSA BASIC scores.
According to the American Trucking Associations, the current shortfall of available drivers is expected to grow to nearly 300,000 full-time positions over the next several years. At the same time, every driver considered for hire must be carefully scrutinized to determine how well they meet the hiring motor carriers criteria.The need to hire the best candidates quickly is a key initiative for every transportation company and a central element in achieving efficiency is performing required screening background, drug and alcohol testing, and health screening. All of these screens play an important role in the suitability of a candidate for the job and, of course, most are mandated by the Department of Transportation.

From the article: Stopping Medications - It Was a Bad Decision
It can be dangerous to stop taking your bipolar medications. Have you done this? Tell us about bad experiences you've had from stopping your meds.
got off bipolar meds
- I stopped my meds 4 2 weeks thinking I was normal. Ended up suicidal & n a physcward! I 2 thought I could live without my meds! Was I totally WRONG! NEVER STOP THEM ON YOUR OWN THERE CAN B SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES!!
- —Guest Krystal
I stopped...
- I stopped taking lithium and quetiapine and within weeks I became manic... it was indeed the worst experience of my life. I ended up in the hospital and could not stop thinking about suicide... During my mania I accomplished many great things, I was accepted into a prestigious graduate school, but do to my inability to control my actions and behavior I had to drop out of school.... now I am trying to piece my life back together.
- —Guest Brian
- 6 months jail of meds no doctors to help as I was living rural, someone started a rumor about me went to his house hit him yelled a lot then left no one was hurt still I got six months for house invasion and common assult think closly about quitting doctors and meds
- —Guest jane
Rebound Effect of Med Discontinuation
- It seems to me that most bipolars who quit meds do so abruptly and without medical supervision. Anyone who does it themselves is doomed to failure. If you want to quit your meds, insist your pdoc assist you in the process. There are a lot of functional bipolars off meds. But that doesn't mean you won't have another episode. There is no cure for this disorder and the meds, in most cases, do not even prevent episodes from happening. If you have a complex form of the disorder, you should probably stay on meds.
- —orbeg
It has never worked out
- I have quit my meds several times over the past 10 years due to weight gain, "I can control this with my mind", and recently side effects. Within a month or two I would hit full blown mania. I would become delusional. This is very bad, b/c you can no longer help yourself. Your whole mentality changes, your morals, and your goals. The 2nd time was the worst and last time I will ever do that by choice. This time, it is not by choice, but the med has caused dangerous side effects. It has taken me 4/5 months to recover physically from the med. I am now back on a different meds. I made a personal choice, I would rather face the risks of meds, than face bipolar, if that tells you anything.

my own worst enemy
- I have gone off my meds a lot. I have a hard time remembering my meds, My life is so hectic. When I go off my meds, I get really irritable, I laugh a lot about nothing, my moods flip flop all the time. It tires me out the way my moods constantly change. I have rapid cycling. My moods can cycle within days or even hours. I am my own worst enemy. I know I need to stay on my meds. I don't even feel like going out to get them and that is another reason I don't stay on my meds. I hate the way I am when off my meds, but I don't do anything really to stay on them either. I hate it also because I like to write and I can't when on meds. I hope I can learn to stay on my meds because it is better for me.
- —Guest robbi
I don't like the way I feel on or off
- When I was diagnosed bipolar in June I was ready to start my meds and get on the roed to a better life. It seemed like the meds were working even though the side effects were annoying. Then I ran out and was off of them for a week. By that time I had fallen into the " I don't care" mode. I was miserable, near suicidal, and had no motivation. Getting my meds seemed like too much trouble to go through. Back in January I had a manic episode that almost cost me my job and my best friend. I got back on my meds with a few changes and slowly started feeling better. The expense of the meds and the considerable side effects has caused me to stop and start a few times. At the present I am not taking anything. I am listless and moody. I cry alot for no reason. I sleep alot when I should be getting stuff acomplished. But it still isn't enough to make me start the routine of popping pills again. I am one of the millions of Americans without insurance and mental illness is expensive.
- —Kellie0806
going off meds
- about a month ago i went off my meds, by accident at first. i had the stomach flu pretty bad, so i couldn't keep anything down anyway. then i just continued within 10 i could tell a difference. i am pretty sure that my husband noticed it too but said nothing. after snapping at my new puppy for messing in the house and after crying on some dumb commerical on tv i decided to go back on them. good idea, but the damage was done. today we went to a birthday party for a friends son. i never thought i had agoraphobia but wow. i started sweating then freezing. heart pumping. and literally thought i was going to tear my hair out. i grabbed my keys and ran to my car (where my xanax is i always have that one hand) i took it but to late. i was crying and freaking with such racing thoughts of what a bad mother i was and that i was useless. i have decided that its obvious i will be on medication for the rest of my life whether i want to or not. so i just have to accept. it.

- I actually thought a suicide was a murder. I went so far as to call the police about it, as well as tell a minority about what I thought was happening. From there things just went downhill until I got stabilized again. Now, thank God, all is well and I can get on with my future.

stopped taking my meds.
- I thought I was doing just great so I stopped my meds. Besides, my husband was getting upset at the cost. I was taking 21 pills a day. Even with Ins. the cost was high. I remember going down hill quite fast, but telling myself I was strong and could deal w/it. My husband said nothing to me so I kept thinking I was fine. Till the 3rd week, when all ---- broke lose. I tried to kill myself. I was totally out of it, and went into a full episode that was just terrible, hurtful, damaging, and nearly ended my life. My husband did not say much when I came home from the hospital and told him I needed my meds or I would not live long. To this day I know he thinks I am weak that I cannot beat this bipolar disorder, but he won't take the time or effort to learn about it either. I fight this alone. My girls who are grown and have families of their own think I am crazy from what their dad tells them. My own family has turned their backs because they don't get it either, tell me it's all in my head.

When I stopped taking my meds!
- When I was married, my husband was absolutely sure that I didn't need any medication and that there was nothing really wrong with me. He convinced me to stop taking my meds. Within six weeks I was close to catatonic. We were wallpapering my daughter's bedroom and he was barking orders at me because I was moving so slowly (I was practically catatonic but scared to death of his yelling and my anxiety.) When he stopped to observe me, he said, "There is something wrong with you. I don't know what it is (bipolar disorder) but you need those meds. I haven't stopped in twenty years because that was one scary experience.
- —Guest carolnoelle
- As a 50yr old manic bipolar, do I have some stories, way too many to unload at one posting. At 40yrs old I "accepted" my diagnosis after a manic episode nearly got me killed, only ended up in jail with 8 or 9 charges. Then referred to a psychiatrist who was firm with me about medicating properly. I couldn't fool him. My first episode occurred when I was 30yrs old, stress of young children, job etc. But I didn't stop partying. Typical behavior for us...my episodes were always "god like," and after hospitalization, next day I was back to my old self. Unfortunately, no acceptance yet. This went on for the next 10 yrs. Numberous visits to facilities, though nice, still restricted for 1 week, only visits from my young family. I would "self medicate" thinking I was fine, but missing 2 weeks, even by skipping every other day, doesn't work for us! Thank god for family. You need support. Find it where you can. Most importantly don't be ashamed. I'm bipolar and proud.

stopping medication
- I was on celexa and ativan and since I have no insurance and had lost my job, no income I had to stop taking my medication. Doctors will not see you unless being insured and there is no money to pay for a doctor much less medication. It was a terryfying experience and I would never do it again. The depression became worse, no sleep, anxiety attacks, episodes after episodes, suicidal, mood swings, no focus, no memory, I just trying to find a way out, and no support system. People don't understand the egony and pain.

They're not abstaining. They're just saying they will keep their current phones (which are not subject to this nonsense) and delay getting a new one until they turn 19.
> Some terms it monitors (both in text

> concerns in parents
Why would the words "handicap" and "menstruation" obviously raise concerns in parents? And what kid is going to actually use the word "menstruation", anyway? They'll use "period" or "rag" or whatever the South Korean slang for it is.
And it seems like the best way to get around this (especially the "nagware" part of the law) is to just not tell the retailer you're buying the phone for your kid. Just say it's for yourself or your spouse or something, and then give it to your kid when you get home.
This is so obviously unconstitutional, if I lived in Wyoming, I'd go out and purposely violate the law just so they could try and prosecute me and have it overturned by the court.
> Logically it sounds like I need to start

It's amazing how many millions of people manage to go their whole lives never having the cops execute a raid/search warrant on their home. Unless you're actually a dealer of illicit narcotics, you have a better chance of being struck by lightning than being raided by the cops, yet you believe the only *logical* way to keep it from happening to you is to install a panic room in your home?
It's apparent that you and logic aren't even passing acquaintances.
> The "good faith exception" triumphs again.
No, actually it didn't, Tim. What triumphed was the part that you *didn't* highlight:
"the police did not act in bad faith,
and THE DEFENDANT MAKES NO SUCH CLAIM."
A court can't grant relief that's not requested. The "good faith" exception might not have triumphed if it had actually been, you know, challenged by the defense.
That isn't what Christenson said. He said: "for the SUSPECT's words to be admissible in court, it has to be on camera. Otherwise, its presumed to be perjury."
So he's not talking about charging the cop with perjury for off-camera statements. He's advocating charging the *defendant* with perjury for repeating anything in court that wasn't captured on camera at the time of the arrest.
> if you cannot do your job right while recording, what you
> really mean is you just cannot do your job at all.
That's not true. As I mentioned above regarding the use of informants, the use of an always-on camera makes it impossible to do that (very important) part of the job at all.
> Oh, and if it is a suspect, for the suspects words to be
> admissible in court, it has to be on camera. Otherwise, its
> presumed to be perjury.
That makes no damn sense. You're advocating charging someone with perjury because the cop didn't capture their statements on his camera when they made them?
So under your system, a cop rolls up on me and arrests me for drug possession. I say I didn't do it but the cop hasn't turned on his camera. When we get to court, I testify that I claimed I didn't do it at the scene but since my words weren't caught on the cop's camera, now I get charged with perjury also?
Every time I read the comments here at TechDirt, I'm continually grateful that these people aren't actually running anything of consequence in society.
Yes, they do, for the reasons stated above-- just because your face is blurred doesn't mean you can't be identified.

California is absurd-- it's two weeks. They apparently expect you to be at the DMV** registering your car and changing your license before you're even done unpacking your moving boxes.
**And now that we're giving drivers licenses to illegals, the lines at the DMV can literally last up to 12-14 hours long.
Sounds like people who owe vehicle taxes in Hampton Roads need to make sure they park their car inside their garage or some other private lot whenever possible.

I suspect these taxes are city/county property taxes, not state DMV registration fees, and as such won't show up in the state computers when the person renews their tags.
When I lived in Virginia, not only did I have to pay my state DMV registration fee, but my county assessed a vehicle property tax on top of it. You had to go into the county office and pay for a special window sticker that proved you'd paid your yearly county vehicle tax.
I drew the line when my city decided it didn't have enough money to spend and added a *third* vehicle tax on top of the other two. Since I was only going to be living in Virginia for two more years, I just ignored it and figured I'd deal with the consequences if they happened to nail me during that time. I knew the odds were slim that they would (and they never did) because I lived in a high-rise with a secure garage and my car spent 90% of its time off city streets and away from the eyes of the enforcers.
> A small amount of redaction (face-blurring, etc.)
> would address the privacy concerns.
No, it wouldn't. People's voices would still be on the recording. That combined with the content of what is actually said, and with a readily identifiable location in the background (street intersection, landmark, etc.) all would be more than enough to identify the person in the recording.
Additionally, working informants is a key aspect of policing and way that a significant number of crimes are solved. If the cops can't turn off the cameras, no informant with half a brain will ever talk to a cop again knowing he's being recorded.
> After all, reality TV pioneer COPS has run for years

That's because COPS requires people sign waivers to appear on camera. Even the face-blurred people sign a waiver. You can choose to let them air the footage with the blur or without, but either way, you have to sign a release or they don't use the footage at all.
And the threat of a lawsuit is pretty dangerous if Cuthbert really did have an affair with the other player. If the station or the original tweeter call their bluff and say, "So go ahead and sue us", the players and the actress will open themselves up to discovery and have lawyers picking through their private lives with a microscope. If she really did cheat, not only will all that be made public, it will invalidate their defamation claim, since truthful information cannot be legally defamatory.
> A network must be held responsible for any slanderous

Depends on if it's actually defamatory. If she really did bang the other player, then it's true and by definition not defamation.

If I was running a server in Idaho and some Florida cop showed up and attempted to shut me down, I'd laugh my ass off, tell him to go pound sand, and have *him* arrested for trespass and harassment if he refused to leave.

No, it wouldn't. If I'm living in California, or Japan, or Italy, I don't subject myself to Florida's jurisdiction merely by putting a website up on the internet.
That's ridiculous. Florida doesn't have jurisdiction throughout the known universe, no matter what idiotic laws it may pass or what they say.

For gawd's sake, the easiest way around it is to just take out your frakking personal iPhone or iPad and watch all the porn you can stomach on it with absolutely zero oversight or chance of being caught-- from an IT perspective, that is. You could always be physically caught if someone walks in on you while you're watching it.
My agency's computers are so locked down that approximately 50% of the links on the Drudge Report are blocked on any given day, and those are all mainstream news sites. For some reason, we've blocked the entire country of Australia. If the URL ends in .au, it's blocked. So what do I do? I use my iPhone for most of my daily internetting, especially when I get a hankering for some kinky kangaroo porn.
They're not above the law in this case. These laws simply don't apply to them because they're not convicted criminals in prison.

Rivers: Garnett out first round, likely playoffs
|04.16.09 at 9:56 am ET
Celtics coach Doc Rivers told WEEI's Dennis and Callahan this morning that Kevin Garnett has been ruled out of the first round and likely will be out for the playoffs with lingering soreness and pain in his right knee.
Rivers made the decision after watching Garnett limp during running exercises this morning at the team's practice facility in Waltham.
"He's not going to be ready," Rivers told Dennis and Callahan. "After watching him run, there's no way. So, we're going to move without him. And the way I saw him move today, I don't know if he'll be ready.
"He's just limping. He just can't run. This was an honest run today. You couldn't fake your way through it. The guy's a warrior, you could see him trying to mask it but after 20 minutes of running, there's just no way."
This news comes just over 12 hours after Rivers told reporters he expected Garnett to be ready for Saturday's playoff opener.
"I flipped completely because I was watching him move and he looked great," Rivers said. "And then after today, there's just no way."
Garnett has played just four games since injuring the right knee on Feb. 19 at Utah. He has been working with head trainer Ed Lacerte trying to get the knee ready for the rigors of the playoffs.
Asked if ruling Garnett out for the first round means the star forward is likely done for the entire playoffs, Rivers didn't hesitate.
"I think it is," Rivers added. "I don't know that as a fact yet. Eddie is doing everything he can to get him on the court and Kevin is going beyond that. But at this point, after going through all the rehab and looking so good last week, and he was running last week and it looked like he was running pretty well, to where he's at today, if he can't get through biking and working out without swelling and stiffness and his leg locking, I just don't know how you can play in the playoffs."
The No. 2 seed Celtics open the Eastern Conference playoffs this Saturday afternoon at 12:30 against the No. 7 seed Chicago Bulls at TD Banknorth Garden.

Joel Pineiro on struggles: "Honestly, the next thing I can do is sacrifice a live chicken"
Aug 4, 2011, 1:10 PM EDT
Another ugly outing last night puts Joel Pineiro in danger of losing his spot in the Angels' rotation and the veteran right-hander hasn't been able to figure out why he's struggling, telling Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times:
This is embarrassing. I'm making the team, the staff and myself look bad. I've got to turn it around. If it's going to be like this the rest of the year, it's going to be a long year for me.
I wish I had an explanation, but I have no idea what's going on. I've tried everything. I've seen video, worked on mechanics, thrown in the bullpen. Honestly, the next thing I can do is sacrifice a live chicken.
Pineiro had a 3.84 ERA in 23 starts last season and a 3.90 ERA through 14 starts this year, but he's coughed up 24 runs in 13 innings during his last four starts as his ERA ballooned to 5.31. Things got so bad last night that manager Mike Scioscia yanked the right-handed Pineiro in the middle of a bases-loaded at-bat against the right-handed Michael Cuddyer, bringing in the left-handed Hisanori Takahashi … who promptly served up a grand slam on his first pitch.
That speaks to how little confidence the Angels have in Pineiro at this point, but they might have even less confidence in the potential replacements at Double-A and Triple-A being ready to step into the rotation with better results. In the meantime: Joel, leave those chickens alone.

1. When Tea Parties Attack!
Article III, Section 9, of the constitution of the state of Texas tells us that when a new session of the House of Representatives is seated, its first order of business is to elect a Speaker. What the constitution doesn't tell us is that the Speaker's election can produce one of the great dramas of Texas politics: a leadership struggle that amounts to a civil war.
Though the Eighty-third Legislature doesn't convene until January, the battle lines are already being drawn. Bryan Hughes, a Mineola lawyer and ten-year veteran of the House, has signaled his intention to challenge Joe Straus, who will be seeking his third term. Both are Republicans, but there the similarities end. Straus is an establishment figure who social conservatives complain is out of step with the insurgent mood of the Republican base. Hughes and his supporters have been doing the complaining.
The race could get ugly, as it did last year, when tea party groups infuriated House members by threatening to oppose them in the next election if they supported Straus. But unless Hughes is a stalking horse for somebody else (and I don't know who that would be, given that the most likely challengers to Straus—Kelly Hancock, Larry Taylor, and Ken Paxton—all won Senate seats), Straus is the favorite here. The natural inclination of members is to want to be "on the team" so that they will be rewarded with leadership roles. Straus, who has spent two sessions building a governing coalition and has been courting rookie legislators, is in the best position to give them that because he owns the most valuable asset in politics: incumbency. —Paul Burka
2. Animatronic LBJ: The Exit Interview
After undergoing a year-long, $10 million renovation, Austin's LBJ Presidential Library will debut its new look on December 22—not coincidentally, the centenary of Lady Bird Johnson's birth. There will be many new and updated exhibits and a major redesign of the interior. One of the most notable changes will be the refurbishing of the Animatronic LBJ, who has, since 1998, leaned against a fence and regaled visitors with a handful of the late president's best yarns while dressed in a cowboy hat and casual ranch duds. The restyled Animatronic LBJ will wear a suit and tie and stand behind a presidential podium while spinning the exact same yarns. In advance of the big change, he granted us a brief audience.
Texas Monthly: I'm not sure how I should address you. "Mr. President"?
Animatronic LBJ: No need to stand on ceremony, son. LBJ wasn't much for formalities, and neither am I. You could call a mule "Mr. Speaker" but it wouldn't make him Sam Rayburn. Then again …
TM: It's weird—even though you're off the clock, you still talk like LBJ.
ALBJ: Playing a role can get under your skin, like a tick's mandible. Or Hubert Humphrey. Back in the eighties I spent a few months working as a pirate at Disney World. It took me years to stop saying "Aaargh!" every time my lumbago acted up.
TM: So playing LBJ wasn't your first time at the rodeo?
ALBJ: Hell, no! You slap a different faceplate on me, and I can do all sorts of things. My Keanu Reeves is uncanny.
TM: After fourteen years playing the "country" LBJ, you're now going to be dressed in a suit and tie. Will that be a challenge?
ALBJ: A few months ago I got sent for reprogramming down at the Sally Corporation, in Florida. Those are the folks who create people like me for museums and amusement parks. It was a pain, but at least I had a chance to visit with some old friends I hadn't seen in a while—Thomas Edison, Ben Franklin, Mark Twain, Fred Flintstone. Good times. Just don't get Ben and Fred in the same room.
TM: Are you looking forward to the new role?
ALBJ: I'll be lip-synching the same five stories I've been telling since 1998. And let's face it: that one about the guy who's losing his hearing and his doctor tells him to quit drinking? It wasn't that funny the first time around. Umpteen hundred thousand times later, it's even less funny. I mean, a wardrobe change is nice, but how about some new material? I can do a lot more than set up, punch line, set up, punch line, you know?
TM: Anything in particular you'd like to lip-synch?
ALBJ: LBJ's speech after Kennedy was killed: "An assassin's bullet has thrust upon me the awesome burden of the presidency. I am here today to say I need your help; I cannot bear this burden alone." I'd give my left nut and bolt to recite something like that.
TM: Last question: Can I see your gallbladder scar?
ALBJ: Don't get cute, son.

Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights, celebrates a miracle created by God and his only begotten son, Adam Sandler. The holiday, which begins on December 8, lasts eight nights; children are given one gift each night. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Bow-hunting lessons with Ted Nugent.
2. A Neiman Marcus yarmulke with attachable Gucci chin strap, for riding on the ranch.
3. A brief lecture on the importance of showing respect for all religions. "Jesus loves you" can be very comforting words. Unless you hear them in a Mexican prison.
4. A Porsche, so he can grow up to be a jerk.
5. Tickets to a Billy Joe Shaver concert. As my father used to say, "Never underestimate the power of gentile prayer."
6. A bottle of my Man in Black Tequila, which I call "the Barry Manilow drink" because it makes you feel good for a short period of time.
7. A brand-new Yom Kippur clipper, a.k.a. a Jewish Cadillac—it stops on a dime and then picks it up.
8. Some good advice, like the tip Willie Nelson once gave me: "If you're gonna have sex with an animal, make it a horse. That way, if things don't work

I followed the instructions from a previous customer posted on your web site. The only tip I would add is make sure you get a snug connection on the element with the connectors on the wires. I used a pair of needle nose pliers and gave it a little squeeze. My concern was I didn't want the wires to come off when I pushed them back through the wall behind the insulation. We are having pizza tonight!

Either Liston or Joe Louis had the hardest jab ever thrown. If you know any thing about boxing history do not judge Liston by the fights he had on the tail end of his career. He beat most of the top contenders before he got a title fight that he should have had years before. Liston through 1963 was a truly great fighter. He should not be forgotten.
Paul Gallender 01:11pm, 05/03/2014
I've thought that way for many years, Mike. It's what motivated me to write my biography of Sonny.
Mike 09:41am, 05/03/2014
I Watch a Liston Video last Night , never watch a liston fight , and at the moment i thinking he is the best heavyweight ever
Paul Gallender 10:07am, 11/27/2013
Hard to believe it took six days for anybody to react in a positive way to this article. You're right, George. No boxer ever had a body like Sonny's. Look at his back muscles! His Las Vegas sparring partner, Gary Bates, told me that the muscles in Sonny's hands were as well defined as all of his other muscles. I too have described Liston as a freak of nature but I don't think he would have taken kindly to that description. Good list, Steve. But like Joe Louis said, he wouldn't have jabbed with Sonny.
Steve Vercelli 08:42am, 11/27/2013
1)-Joe Louis. Watch the Max Baer fight. Louis carved faces with his jab. He also had the most underrated left hook in heavyweight history.
2)-Sonny Liston. The reach, combined with evil intent. The only criticism: It looked to be "flicked" at times. I'm sure, however, that they didn't FEEL flicked.
3)-Larry Holmes. It was like a piston: Flashing out in force, and snapped back like his fist was on a spring.
4)-George Foreman. Clubbing, brute force. Accuracy and clumsiness were drawbacks at times. But that uppercut…with EITHER hand….THAT'S why Ali beat him: Uppercuts from a distance were next to useless against Ali. And the uppercut was Foreman's most frightening weapon.
5)-Muhammad Ali. Flicking, persistent, but lacking the brute force of the 1st 4.
6)-Gene Tunney. Watch the way he threw it. It had an almost upward trajectory. It was deadly accurate. He busted up some great fighters with that jab.
George 07:26am, 11/27/2013
I agree
This combination of Brutal Power , solid Speed , 84 inch reach and technic is unmatched up today in Bowe / Lewis / Klitschko era
Look Listons arms , Klitschko or Lewis looks like a Child In contrast.
They are bigger men but not stronger.
Listons arms have Schwarzenegger style , look that pic , hell
what a freak of nature
Paul Gallender 09:57pm, 11/23/2013
Liston's fists measured 15 1/2 inches. Guys, there are a lot of things that were said or written about Sonny that were flat-out wrong. Listing his fists as 14" was one of those.
Jason 05:48pm, 11/23/2013
Eric, I've also read accounts of how Liston's hands have grown since his death.
Ted, yes Holmes, and, of course, Ali's jab was a beautiful thing as well.
Hell, I thought Tyrell Biggs had a great jab, it's just that the rest of him tended to fall apart.
Eric 04:56pm, 11/21/2013
George Foreman had a pretty devasting jab himself. Liston's fists get bigger every time I read about him. Used to be Sonny's fists were routinely listed at 14" and now they've grown to 15 1/2"? That's larger than a great deal of fighter's calves and biceps. I don't even think I recall even Primo Carnera's fist measurement ever exceeding or even reaching 15".
Irish Frankie Crawford Beat Saijo aka Gimpel 08:38am, 11/21/2013
If his jab was all that he should have been able to KO Big Cat with it alone because Williams was one of the all time chinny overachievers in boxing history. Which reminds me…Leotis Martin performed a bully beat down on Liston only eclipsed by Buster Douglas' public service conducted on Tyson some years later in Japan. One more thing….WTF is a six foot tall fighter doing with an 84" reach and a 16" fist any Godammed way?
Mike Casey 08:26am, 11/21/2013

The Institute for Female Pelvic Medicine Announces Subspecialty Board Certification in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery
Dr. Jeffrey Dell Achieves Subspecialty Certification in Urogynecology to Better Serve Patients
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., May 8, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Dr. Jeffrey Dell, Director of the Institute for Female Pelvic Medicine, is one of two doctors in the Knoxville metro area to achieve board certification in the subspecialty of Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery.
"We are thrilled to offer this subspecialty and provide premier, cutting-edge care to patients dealing with a range of problems including urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, pelvic organ prolapse, interstitial cystitis, hematuria and complications following pelvic surgery with mesh and/or sling procedures," said Dell, MD and Director of the Institute for Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery. "The importance of specialized training and care for our patients is the number one priority, and it is an honor to be nationally recognized and referred to as a Center of Excellence in this industry."
The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education recognized female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery as a subspecialty nearly two years ago, as it is an increasing area that needs specialized training and care. The Institute for Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery serves the community by setting the standard for excellence in healthcare for women with urogynecologic and pelvic floor problems.
The Institute for Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery provides a place for women to obtain the most advanced treatments for urinary incontinence, prolapse, pelvic pain and pelvic disorders. Dell provides consultation and management for women with complex benign pelvic conditions or urinary tract disorders with pelvic floor dysfunction. Urogynecology offers comprehensive care for bladder and pelvic floor disorders tailored exclusively for female patients.
"Urogynecology is a subspecialty that has changed tremendously throughout the past decade," Dell said. "Currently, there are less than 700 doctors in the United States who have met the qualifications and passed the board examination process, and I am honored to be one of them."
Dell received his medical degree from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis and did internship and residency training at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Memphis. He is a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American College of Surgeons and member of multiple professional organizations including the American Urogynecologic Society. Additionally, Dell has published scholarly publications in Urology, The Journal of Pelvic Surgery, Journal of Urology and the International Urogynecology Journal. He is among the first Board Certified Urogynecologists in the United States.

My youtube video tutorials
I attempted this years ago, but I've been steadily working lately at creating a library of youtube videos to help people out with art.
Currently I've just been doing a bit of a series about digitally painting and coloring facial tones, but I'm going to keep trying new and different series. Probably will do one that just offers art critiques or one that talks about great designs in pop culture... aside from the tutorial side of things. Anything related to concept art, basically.
My channel is here: http://www.youtube.com/sinixdesign
Any suggestions on teaching technique and video presentation would be great. I'm trying to make sure everything is fun and informative.. or at least interesting.
