In regards to your genoa, I'd say keep it and get an extendable whisker pole. That combination will give you the widest set of options. You can always add a kite to this inventory. I am in the planning stages for my Mexico trip. I'm planning on bringing my Pentex laminate 130 genoa and whisker. If I had a 140, I'd bring that instead. I am planning on having one "junior helmsman" on board and I know that that guy won't be up to flying a kite at night with any degree of proficiency. I've tried this before and found that the "juniors" tend to drive hotter angles at night, thus driving the boat off course. You spend the next watch getting the boat back on the rhumb line. Very inefficient. My plan is kite during the days and at night with the experienced helmsmen. Douse, and run wing on wing with the "junior" during the night. I should get an added benefit of a few hours of running really deep to boot. Remember those unhappy sailors on that recent Transpac – you don't want to spend all your time untangling head stay wraps and mending the inevitable rips and tears that result.
Honestly, I don't really know what route we'll take yet. I've been researching that. Our first hop will be to Tampa - where we'll play around for the season, then leave the boat somewhere like Naples or something. From there, the idea is the Bahams for the next season - leave the boat - maybe in T&C. Then the BVIs the next season. Any advice you'd give on the best routes, I'll take it!
THANK YOU for the feedback on the kite. That means a lot coming from you. It's honestly low on my list, but I'd love to get one just to learn it. If I do, I will follow your advice. I've done a good deal of WoW in our off-shore races (we were in the non-spin class) and feel very comfortable with it.

Lewis peaked very late, he was already 31 in the McCall rematch, do you really consider him past-prime against Holy? I think Lewis still looked Peak a year later against Grant & Botha. Truly poor preparation & overconfidence is what made Lewis so faded in his first meeting with Rahman, yet when properly prepared for the rematch, despite being aged 36, he again appeared Peak. In contrast, Holy was clearly past-prime from '94 onwards.
I agree. Lewis reached his absolute peak by the Tua fight both mentally and physically. I always related that win to his loss to Rahman. I think in his mind, he had beaten all the best the division could offer at the time. He completely dominated Tua after coming off two explosive performances against Grant and Botha. Holyfield on the other hand looked so incosistent since 94. Holyfield was clearly the more declined fighter. Mavrovic could have made anyone look bad with his survival first style and Lewis would have always struggled with any type of fighter that didnt stand in front of him.

WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday Listen to this entire show:
Florida may be getting more money for its proposed high-speed train. And itâs thanks to some states rejecting the federal funds.

We've been on holiday with Olympic most years for the last 15 (and never really look any further) because we've learned from experience that the accommodation and resorts are as described on the website and that the reps are helpful and reliable. The prices are also competitive for the self-catering holidays we enjoy. This year we went to the Manousis Studios in Tsilivi, Zante, and enjoyed 2 weeks of baking sun in early July (I wouldn't want it any hotter than it was!). We wanted a quiet… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

My holiday in kavos with 8 other lads was amazing. The only down side to the whole two weeks was the fact our flights were changed three times on the return journey which we could of done without. our reps were really nice and a good laugh… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

We stayed a week in Monika Hotel and Apartments in July 2013. Sidari was lovely, but the 'self catering apartment' was not what it claimed. It was a standard hotel room, with fridge, kettle and toast grill, with a very odd sink in a cupboard. Only good if you wish to live on toast for a week! Food in sidari was plentiful and affordable, but don't expect to be able to 'self-cater' in any meaningful sense. The bathroom was dangerous as it flooded when used, and the balc*ny door handle was broken… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

We booked our holiday with Olympic mainly because the price you see is what you pay, not like others where you have to add on this and that and before you know you'v paid a lot more. Thank you Olympic. Our carrier was Small Planet from Manchester,and contrary to bad reviews they were great, in fact we left 30mins earlier than stated. We arrived at Corfu and were promptly shown to our transfer by the Olympic Rep., for our 2hour journey to Monica Apartments.

Booked after travelling with Olympic previously and chose Skiathos Princess Hotel. First and foremost the hotel and staff are amazing we were very happy with the accommodation, food and facilities. Sadly the same cannot be said for the service received from Olympic or their rep. Before travelling we tried to book seats on the flight (a Thomson flight) and after waiting 40 mins on hold was told had to speak to admin, tried to email and got no reply and then when finally got through was told this… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

Stayed at the pelagos apts in scala kefalonia for one week, we have stayed there quite a few times very pleasant ,the owners and her daughters are very friendly, just a short stroll to the square and the beach..

We have always booked with Olympic Holiday but this was the best so far, why they said our hotel was only a 3* I will never know!!! We stayed at the Panorama Village Hotel in Crete/Algia Paligia and it was the tidiest and cleanest hotel we have stayed in. Proper double beds, showers over baths, beautiful sea veiw from the balcony. Really good food and abserloutly excellent staff. Only problem we had was we didn't see our rep until the day before we left. But overall would deffinitely… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

As always we had a fantastic holiday at the Pascalis Studios in Aghia Paraskevi, Skiathos - everyone is so friendly, the accommodation is perfect, peaceful but close to everything you need & easy to get around. But travelling to & from this lovely island was a complete let down. As has happened before our carrier was changed, before we left, to Small Planet - they don't serve meals so we were promised a refund as we had already paid for them - yet to be seen. We were informed that they offer a… Read Full ReviewVisit olympicholidays.com

Golden Frog Announces Public Beta for Cyphr, Its Encrypted Messaging Application
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MEGGEN, SWITZERLAND -- (Marketwired) -- 08/19/14 -- Golden Frog, a global privacy company best known as the provider of the premium personal VPN service VyprVPN, today expanded its privacy offerings by launching a secure messaging application into public beta. Cyphr is as easy-to-use as any mobile messaging app, but all messages are secure, encrypted and only accessible by the end-user.
Cyphr is currently free to use and available on Android and iOS mobile devices, with desktop and web apps coming soon. Users can communicate with both individual contacts and groups, and send attached images. Golden Frog worked to make the user experience as unburdened as possible, so everyone can realize the benefits of encrypted messaging.
"Using encrypted communications tools has traditionally been a cumbersome and technical process that has forced people to choose between security and simplicity," said Sunday Yokubaitis, President, Golden Frog. "With Cyphr, users simply login, create their encryption keys with the push of a button and begin messaging their contacts as they normally would. Cyphr servers are based in Switzerland for maximum privacy and protection." Unlike startups that push mobile messaging applications to market without first building a secure infrastructure, Golden Frog's core team has fought to preserve online privacy, security and freedom since 1994. The company owns all of its servers, writes its own code, and manages its network to deliver the highest levels of security, speed and privacy.
Golden Frog takes a zero-knowledge approach to the contents of messages with Cyphr. They are always encrypted so that nobody besides the sender and the recipient can view the content. This includes any Golden Frog servers or network devices in between the sender and the recipient. Cyphr gives users a combination of public and private keys so only they can read the conversation -- not wireless providers, ISPs or 3rd parties.
Cyphr marries public and private encryption technologies to create a solution that is secure end-to-end. The sender utilizes public-key cryptography to encrypt messages. After a message has been sent, it cannot be decrypted on the server by Golden Frog or intercepted by hackers because only the recipient holds the private key for decryption. After Golden Frog delivers the message to its intended recipient, all associated metadata is discarded from Cyphr servers.
"Cyphr is intended for people who believe their digital communications should remain private. We've built the application so that we can't access any of the messages stored on our servers," said Philip Molter, co-CTO, Golden Frog. "It is our commitment to keep our users' communications private between their intended recipient and themselves." For more information about Cyphr, please visit:
About Golden FrogGolden Frog is a global service provider committed to developing applications and services that preserve an open and secure Internet, a mission that continues to grow in importance as users across the world face privacy threats. With users in over 195 countries, Golden Frog owns and operates server clusters in North America, Europe, South America, Asia and Oceania. Golden Frog owns and manages 100% of its own servers, hardware and global network to ensure the highest levels of security, privacy and service delivery. Golden Frog offers a comprehensive reseller program that provides the best VPN service and deals to resellers and their customers. The company also offers VyprVPN for Business to protect company communications, identity and data, and secure employees' Internet connections in the office or on the road.
Doing its part to protect privacy, Golden Frog has launched additional server clusters in more than a dozen cities around the globe so far this year, with more servers to come in 2014. Learn more about Golden Frog's vision for a free and open Internet by reading our "Peace, Prosperity and the Case for the Open Internet" vision paper located at www.goldenfrog.com/vision.

The Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA) has granted five local airlines the right to serve 18 flights per week to China after the July launch of direct weekend charter flights across the Taiwan Strait, a CAA spokesman said Wednesday.
The CAA made the decision at a meeting the previous day to address the allocation of cross-strait direct flights after it suspended all international flights by Far Eastern Air Transport Corp for six months in light of the debt-ridden carrier's failure to improve its financial situation.
The five carriers - Standard Chinese Airlines, TransAsia Airways, UNI Air, China Airlines and EVA Airways - will be allocated the weekly charter flights originally allocated to FAT, the spokesman said.
For the first weekend, Standard Chinese Airlines, TransAsia Airways and UNI Air will each provide four flights, while China Airlines and EVA Airways will each operate three flights.
For the second weekend, TransAsia Airways, UNI Air and China Airlines will each run four flights, while EVA Airways and Standard Chinese Airlines will each run three flights, with subsequent rotations continuing in that order, the spokesman explained.
Regarding the busiest Taiwan-Shanghai route, the spokesman said that as the agreement on cross-strait direct flights stipulates that no more than nine flights per week will be allowed on the route, the CAA agreed to grant three carriers two weekly flights each on the route, and to grant another carrier one weekly flight on the route, with the five carriers taking turns.
Although the allocation method is somewhat complicated, it is the fairest, CAA Director-General Chang Kuo-cheng said, adding that if FAT resumes operations or if more direct flights are added, the allocations will be adjusted.
Cheng also said that airlines in Taiwan and China are required to apply for flights and routes they want to serve 15 days before they plan to begin operations, which means that those who want operate flights on the first weekend should file their applications by June 19.
Cross-strait direct weekend charter flights are scheduled to begin July 4 from Friday to Monday, with 36 flights between China and Taiwan available each week. Carriers from the two sides will each operate 18 flights.
Taiwan will open eight airports to accommodate the direct flights, including Taiwan Taoyuan international Airport and Songshan Airport in Taipei, as well as airports in Kaohsiung, Taichung, Hualien, Magong, Kinmen and Taitung.
China destinations will be Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Xiamen and Nanjing, with Chengdu, Chongqing, Hangzhou, Dalian, Guilin and Shenzhen to be added later.

Reducing youth gang violence; the Little Village Gang Project in Chicago.
Reducing youth gang violence; the Little Village Gang Project in Chicago.
Spergel, Irving A.
AltaMira Press
382 pages
Violence prevention and policy series
For gangs operating in both established and new turf, suppression tactics have generally failed. Spergel (emeritus, social service administration, U. of Chicago) offers hope in the form of the model Little Village Gang Violence Reduction Project in a city with a high gang homicide rate. He describes the community-based project's background, strategies, obstacles, and lessons for designing and evaluating a successful street-gang program. Tables and figures represent key variables including community characteristics, trends in serious gang-violent crime, changes in offenses and arrests, and youth services predicted as very effective. The author's other publications include The Youth Gang Problem: A Community Approach (1995).

Very tranquil and perfect for a family of 4
Beautiful Condo!
As for the unit itself, we were very impressed with the quality of the unit with stainless appliances, new washer and dryer, and wood floors. As for grounds, the kids enjoyed playing in the pools, fishing off the pier, and playing basketball.
We had a problem trying to figure out the digital thermostat, but after a call to the owner, he came over and walked me through it.
All in all, this was a very nice vacation and we would recommend this unit.
If looking to stay with us or just in the area, call me and we can do lunch.
Thank you again!
Siesta Key Vacation Rentals
Beautiful as advertised
Inside the unit, we loved the fact that the unit is not a "traditional" Florida House, which is to say, we loved the modern accommodations, such as: Flat screen televisions, stainless appliances, granite counter tops, and bamboo floors.
Outside the unit, we loved the fact that the condo is so centrally located to local shopping, bike trails, and the beach. Also, we enjoyed our time at the two pools and the kids enjoyed playing basketball and fishing from the pier, inside the complex.
Overall, we were more than pleased and look forward to future stays.
Thank you,
Jennifer K.
Thank you for your business and maybe we will see you next year.
Worth every penny!
In my opinion, the unit was spotless and the linens were all fresh. My only real issue was with the personal products (deodorant, sanitary napkins, hairbrushes, etc) that were in the bathrooms. I did appreciate that there were general products available such as laundry detergent and hand soap for our use because it saved us the trouble of buying those items.
The lighting in the unit was fantastic. During the day time we would have all the blinds open to filter in natural light and at sun down we would close the blinds and turn on the lights we needed. We were so impressed with the lighting in the kitchen that we are actually looking into something similar for our personal residence!
The pool and outdoor spa were not clean but that is no reflection on the owner of this unit whatsoever and when I spoke to another resident that lives in a unit in a different building he told me that the only reason why the facilities appeared dirty was because of the recent bad weather that had blown some debris into the water. When we left there was someone cleaning the pool so they apparently stay on top of things.
Overall I was very happy with our stay and with the unit. I am actually considering another stay at this unit in the future so I would definitely recommend this unit to other people looking to stay near this beach.
Thanks so much for the wonderful stay, Ed!
Best Regards,
Not as advertised
I also let him know that there were a couple of pieces of furniture that were broken. He said that he knew, but hadn't gotten them repaired.
He states that he knows the condo isn't exactly where he advertises, but that is to get more interest in his rental. He told me that if I asked, he would have told me the truth about the location!!!
This owner is horrible at customer service.
As the headline of this unit reads, this unit is 2-4 miles from Siesta Key Beach! At no time have we ever said one can walk to the beach, nor do we imply this. To the contrary, I give the address and driving directions to all prospective renters.
Included in the pictures is a aerial picture of Siesta Key Beach, which I would hope, after processing the information, should not lead oneself to the conclusion that you are in a penthouse, on Siesta Beach.
In closing, as with anything in life, there are individuals which one can never satisfy. We have a very strong repeat business with a track record of reviews which speaks very clearly as to the product we provide and will continue to provide.
Should any prospective renters have questions, please contact me, as I am a hands on owner who takes pride in his product.
Siesta Key Vacation Rentals
Beautiful beaches and wonderful stay!
Thank you again,
We are glad your family enjoyed your stay at our unit. We look forward to seeing you again in the future.
Warmest Regards,
Siesta Key Vacation Rentals
Activity and Interests
Sarasota is recognized as Florida's Cultural Coast and is home to a professional symphony, ballet and opera. In addition, more than 10 theaters and 30 art galleries are located in Sarasota. The John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art is Florida's State Museum, and the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall, known for its architecture and great acoustics, seats 1,700 people and features a dazzling season of music, shows and programs for all ages.
From circus museums to a year-round spring with 87-degree water, Sarasota has a variety of attractions appropriate for family enjoyment. Visitors to the area can visit Mote Marine Laboratory, G.WIZ (Gulfcoast Wonder & Imagination Zone), Historic Spanish Point, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Sarasota Jungle Gardens, Warm Mineral Springs, Pelican Man's Bird Sanctuary, and more.
Known as Florida's'Cradle of Golf,' Sarasota was home to the first course in the state and one of America's first golf courses built in 1905 by Sir John Hamilton Gillespie, a Scottish colonist. The nine-hole course was located in the heart of today's downtown near today's Golf, Links and Gillespie Streets.
The community's early ties to golf still can be found today at Bobby Jones Golf Complex. Designed by famed architect Donald Ross, the course opened on Sunday, February 13, 1927, and was personally dedicated by Robert Tyre Jones, Jr. In 1930, Bobby Jones won the 'Grand Slam of Golf' by sweeping the British Amateur, British Open, U.S. Amateur and U.S. Open; he is the only golfer ever to accomplish this feat. Today, Sarasota offers more than 1,000 holes at public, semi-private and private courses.
Myakka River State Park, with 28,875 acres of land, and Oscar Scherer State Park are Sarasota's destinations for bird-watching, biking, walking, camping or just communing with Florida's natural setting of swamps, palmetto brush and towering pine trees. Myakka State Park offers guided boat and train tours that include informative narration of the area's wildlife and history.
Beach...beach...beach...Siesta Beach is one of the top ranked beaches in the world! Its fine quartz sand has a silky, smooth, and powdery feel unlike that of any beach of its kind! In addition, for the kids, there is a new YMCA waterpark at the outskirt of the property. Also, located on the grounds are prestine preserves with fish, eagles, turtles, egret, and various other wildlife.

Bernie Rallies In Vermont
Sen. Bernie Sanders holds first presidential campaign rally today. USA Today: "At 5 p.m. ET, Sanders expects to stand on public land he fought for in the 1980s as he announces his presidential ambitions — while spectators munch Ben & Jerry's ice cream at the free, non-ticketed event in Waterfront Park."
"Bernie Sanders Takes It to Wall Street With Financial Transactions Tax" cheers Dean Baker: "…a FTT is a great way to raise large amounts of money to meet important public needs. It will come almost entirely at the expense of the financial industry and should strengthen the economy. We now have one presidential candidate who is prepared to support a strong FTT. Are there others?"
"Will Hillary Clinton Run Against Her Husband's Welfare Legacy?" asks Bloomberg: "… a smaller percentage of Americans are getting the help they need: In 1996, 68 of every 100 families living in poverty received cash assistance. Today, only 26 of 100 do … Engaging with the entwined issues of inequality and poverty will inevitably mean engaging with the consequences of the welfare bill Bill Clinton signed, though she has not done so yet."
WI jobs agency created by Gov. Scott Walker slammed in audit. Bloomberg: "…Wisconsin's Legislative Audit Bureau released a report showing the authority failed to follow the law and its own policies in awarding taxpayer-funded incentives. It also didn't always require grant and loan recipients to document that jobs were created or retained."
Kochs plan to fund multiple GOP candidates. Bloomberg: "In a Saturday interview on the Larry Kudlow Show, a nationally syndicated radio broadcast, David Koch let it slip that the roughly $900 million that he and his brother, Charles, plan to lavish on the 2016 presidential race could find its way into the hands of more than one GOP contender … the Koch brothers seem content to let the sifting process play out before placing their chips on a single candidate."
Fast Track Fight Moves To House
"House GOP split jeopardizes trade deal" reports Politico: "…about 40 to 45 of the 245 House Republicans, most of them in the far-right wing, are hard 'nos' … If they are able to boost their numbers by even a handful of votes, it would imperil the legislation … Democrats are expected to provide at most 25 'yeas' toward the 217 votes needed…"
Self-described "progressive" advocacy group for TPP to run ads. Politico: "The Progressive Coalition for American Jobs, which is being advised by Obama campaign alumni at 270 Strategies and trying to build up appeal among the Democratic base, is already starting with a digital ad buy to thank senators who voted for fast-track legislation … PCAJ will also be advertising in districts where [House] members have already said they'll support fast-track legislation and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, or are leaning that way.
Obama Bully Pulpit Moves Cities
Obama's paid leave and minimum wage strategy paying off at city level. USA Today: "At least six major cities — Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Tacoma, Wash., and Washington, D.C. — have passed paid sick leave laws in the four months since Obama called for state and local action in this year's State of the Union Address. Since the 2013 address when Obama called for an increase in the minimum wage, 17 states and six major cities have taken action, including Los Angeles last week."
Workers getting fewer raises. NYT: "…the share of payroll budgets devoted to straight salary increases sank to a low of 1.8 percent in the depths of the recession … It has rebounded modestly since the recession, but still only rose 2.9 percent in 2014 … Last year, [short-term rewards and bonuses] hit a record 12.7 percent … While a few more dollars in each paycheck may lack that Christmas-morning feeling, a raise is the gift that keeps on giving."
Congress may be ready to spend more, says The Hill: "…spending ceilings are unpopular with members of both parties. Pressure to break them is coming from all sides, and building … Lawmakers want more funding for the Pentagon to battle [ISIS]. Last week's deadly Amtrak crash has provoked Democrats to call for higher infrastructure spending. Other lawmakers warn that the federal government isn't providing enough funds for law enforcement…"
Crunch Time In Greece
Greece nears bankruptcy. NYT: "Absent a last-minute deal with its creditors, the nation will run out of money early next month … the interior minister, Nikos Voutsis, said that there would not be enough money to pay the I.M.F. if there was no deal by June 5 … As it is in many small towns here, the unemployment rate is higher than the national average of 25 percent. And while the trash is being collected, budget cuts of 50 percent leave room for little else."
Greek finance minister accuses creditors of demanding austerity. Bloomberg: "'Our creditors' insistence on greater austerity is subtle yet steadfast,' Varoufakis wrote in a Project Syndicate op-ed, published May 25. 'Our government cannot –- and will not -– accept a cure that has proven itself over five long years to be worse than the disease.'"
Left-wing parties win in Spanish local elections. NYT: "The success of anti-establishment candidates, who ran for small local parties, in the two largest Spanish cities underlined the fragmentation of Spain's politics, as well as the precipitous slide of the governing Popular Party of Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, ahead of general elections this year."

Breakthrough- Western Art & Architecture
STANLEY NATCHEZ IS IN HIS SANTA FE STUDIO, GETTING READY FOR HIS 2014 INDIAN MARKET OPENING RECEPTION, WHEN HE ANNOUNCES, "THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO CAN'T AFFORD ONE OF MY PAINTINGS… so I'm going to give them one."
Weaving the Dance- Western Art & Architecture Magazine
Early 20th-century Navajo Yei rugs can be artistic, soulful masterpieces and a real find for collectors.
WHEN IT COMES TO THE NATIVE AMERICAN TEXTILE MARKET, THE CLASSIC CHIEF'S BLANKETS ARE THE SUPERSTARS. But early 20th-century Yei rugs are the real sleepers. Yei iconography is related to Navajo religious sandpaintings, which blend the visual with the metaphysical.
Navajo religion has a reverence for nature and is based on maintaining a balance in the universe. If your daily rhythm is thrown off-kilter, a lot can go wrong. For instance, if you accidentally kick over an anthill or cross the path of a bear without offering him a prayer of respect, you could upset that sense of harmony and an illness might befall you. Traditionally when that happened, Navajos called in a medicine man.
Much like a Western doctor, the medicine man examined the patient and suggested a cure. The remedy involved a combination of chanting, herbal medicines and a sandpainting ritual. A member of the sick person's family would agree upon a fee, which was often paid in sheep, silver jewelry or other forms of barter. Then the healer got to work. He would scoop up various colored sands and sprinkle them on the ground until they formed a specific Yei (holy person), based on the god he was trying to summon. When the sandpainting was completed, it was sanctified by spreading corn pollen over it.

The Phyllis Shafer Experience- Western Art & Architecture
With her fearless interpretation of the natural world, Phyllis Shafer is redefining the American landscape.
I used to think if I saw one more Southwestern landscape, I'd go crazy. Then I came across my first Phyllis Shafer painting.
Landscape painters strive to create a mood through a sense of place. Works can conjure awe, like viewing a majestic Albert Bierstadt painting of the Yosemite Valley or a Thomas Moran romantic sunset over the Hudson River. By contrast, Neil Welliver's impressions of Maine offer moments of quiet contemplation. What unites all of the great landscape artists is how they awaken long-dormant feel- ings in viewers. Phyllis Shafer's work makes me want to call my travel agent.

Swimming in the Deep End: The Work of Tony Abeyta
I admit it; I'm a tremendous Fritz Scholder fan. I was hooked the day I stumbled upon the exhibition catalogue from the artist's National Museum of the American Indian retrospective, enigmatically titled Indian/Not Indian. At the time, I had been hunting for art books at Green Apple, in San Francisco, when the volume seemed to leap out at me. After carefully studying the reproductions, I felt the poignancy of the work and began to appreciate Scholder's authenticity.
Fritz Scholder's career was star-crossed. He was a Native American painter whose prime work from the 1960s and 1970s was exhibited in the serious Manhattan contemporary art world—a phenomenon which had never occurred before and hasn't since. Though he died a multi-millionaire, and received more honors and accolades than you can imagine, he was conflicted over his very identity. Was he an artist or an Indian artist? It was a conundrum he would never resolve and one that haunts many Native American painters to this day.

The Ferus Years
From Walter Hopps to Irving Blum, and Billy Al Bengston to Andy Warhol, a small Los Angeles art gallery transformed the Modern art scene in a single decade.
The rumors about New York not taking the Los Angeles art scene seriously have always been true, with one exception — the Ferus Gallery. Until a recent slew of books appeared on the subject, the gallery's accomplishments had been tucked away as ancient folklore.
Stories about the Ferus years were swapped among local artists as if they had happened centuries ago. In reality, the tale of the Ferus Gallery can be traced back to 1957 when the eccentric curator, Walter Hopps, teamed up with the even more eccentric artist, Edward Kienholz, to open a gallery on La Cienega Boulevard. What began as a ploy to exhibit their friends' work wound up rewriting art history. Continue Reading>Ferus Gallery AprilMay 13
Bill Kaderly- Under the Radar
It had been a long time coming.
Between 1939 and 1942, an illiterate ex-slave from Montgomery, Alabama, by the name of Bill Traylor created approximately twelve hundred spectacular drawings of local street life. He was befriended by a young white artist named Charles Shannon, who preserved his work and helped bring recognition to Traylor's art. Since the early 1960s, when Traylor gradually became known, there have been only five new discoveries of significant Outsider artists: Joseph Yoakum, Martin Ramirez, James Castle, the Philadelphia Wireman, and Henry Darger. Given this country's rapid march toward homogeneity, the chances of an encounter with a great self-taught artist are as slim as the phone book of Silver City, New Mexico. Which is one of a number of reasons why a trip to Silver City, during the summer of 2010, had been the furthest thing from my mind. Continue Reading> Bill Kaderly-Under_the_radar
THE Magazine- Person of Interest- Diego Romero
THE magazine is a visually oriented, free periodical concentrating on the local, regional, and national art scenes, as well as featuring articles, reviews and interviews on the performing arts, books, films, music, and important cultural issues of the day. THE magazine uses the resources of its community, the artists and writers living and working in New Mexico, as its primary editorial contributors. THE magazine is the eyes, ears, and voice of the art community throughout New Mexico.
I had the privilege of being asked to write an article about Diego Romero. I've inserted the article here for your enjoyment. Please also see Diego's work for sale featured on my site.
Western Art & Architecture
Perspective: Fritz Scholder [1937-2005]
The enigmatic painter changed everything about our perspective of Native American art.
In 1969, Fritz Scholder completed the modest canvas Indian with Beer Can — and Native American art was never the same. In fact, back then there was no such thing as Native American fine art. Classic Navajo chief's blankets and Mimbres pictorial pots were relegated to dusty displays in anthropology museums. Even Maria Martinez's wonderful black-on-black ceramics were condescendingly written off as high-end crafts. Indian with Beer Can changed everything.
Today, the question lingers in the air like an unfinished argument: How did an artist, who often denied his Indian background, blossom into a painter who came to define that very category of art? All Scholder ever wanted was to be appreciated as an artist, rather than an Indian artist. Perversely, he discovered he could only make a living if he was perceived as a Native American who painted Indian imagery. It would remain a lifelong source of frustration.
Western Art & Architecture- Perspective: Gustave Baumann
TIMING IS EVERYTHING. I had traveled to Santa Fe, in part to see as many Gustave Baumann prints in person as time would allow. My first stop was The Owings Gallery. No sooner had I walked into their elegant space, than out walked a Baumann print. Nathaniel Owings, the gallery's proprietor, was literally handing a bubble-wrapped package to a smiling client, containing a copy ofThree Pines. I couldn't have choreographed my visit any better.
It turned out that Three Pines was inspired by a grove of conifers that still exists in the town of Chama, two-and-a-half hours from the gallery. Baumann's pictorial genius exerted such a strong pull that I briefly gave thought to hopping in the car and driving to that very spot to experience the profound connection between nature and artist. Though I decided to stick around the gallery, I marveled at how Baumann's woodcut compelled me to even consider making the 150-mile drive. Such is the power of his art.
Are Art Funds the Right Way To Invest In Art?
"I give it a thumbs down," Richard says. "It never has worked. There's a history of this stuff. The closest it ever came to working was the British Rail Pension Fund. They did everything right: bought the right material and timed it right. And still, they would have been better in the S&P 500."

"Libya" Top 5 Page for this destination Libya by iwys
Libya Travel Guide: 1,094 reviews and 4,147 photos
Libya is the fourth largest country in Africa. It has a long Mediterranean coastline and is bordered by Tunisia and Algeria to the west, Egypt to the east and Niger, Chad and Sudan to the south. Most of the country is desert, but the population, major cities and places of interest are largely concentrated in the narrow coastal strip.
The highlights for most visitors are either the desert, with its sand dunes, oases and rock paintings, or the Ancient Roman and Greek ruins of Leptis Magna, Sabratha, Cyrene and Apollonia. Some less well-known gems are the medinas of Tripoli and Benghazi and the ancient desert town of Ghadames - the Pearl of the Desert.

Publisher's Description
The culture of the Eastern Church is alien to our experience. Yet the more we familiarize ourselves with the Eastern Church the more we recognize, for all the differences, the family resemblances. The family has been parted for a very long time. But chances have arisen to meet again and get to know one another.
In recent years, Eastern Orthodoxy has emerged vividly on the radar of Western Christians - hitherto, it was largely ignored. The separation has been due to the long-term historical disruption caused by differences in language, outlook and theology and eventually by the depredations of Islam. Because of these East and West went their separate ways. As a result, the respective theologies appear at times to inhabit parallel universes.
However, this ignorance is changing. Eastern Orthodoxy is increasingly popular in the Anglo-Saxon world. It conveys a sense of mystery, of continuity with the past, of dignified worship at a time when evangelical Protestantism is increasingly cheapened and trivialized.
This book examines the history and theology of Orthodoxy from a Reformed perspective. There are clear and significant areas of agreement - a common allegiance to the triune God; the person of Christ; the authority of Scripture and the truth of the gospel. At the same time there are many areas of disagreement, where it seems that Orthodoxy and Protestantism are at odds. However, there are also misunderstandings on both sides, where proponents of either position are not normally dealing accurately with what the other holds to be true. In drawing attention to the agreements and misunderstandings Robert Letham trusts that readers may come to a better understanding of exactly where the real differences lie. We can learn from Orthodoxy - if our assumption is that the most important thing is to grow in our knowledge of Christ.
