Now hook it up to your starter solenoid and you will be able to engage your starter in the engine compartment.
Does it role over now? If not.. check all batteries and battrie cable connections first ( are your bats good and charged? ) if thats not it then the starter or solenoid needs rebuilt/replaced.
If it rolls over ( Nice and quickly not sluggishly ) you are ready for the above posted procedures..you can get your self a 1 gal plastic fuel jug just for the fire off ( stick the fuel intake line of mechanical lift pump into it, it should not have to be gravity fed ) but obviously you will want to re-install some sort of permanent fuel tank arrangement..
Be sure no critter's have made a nest in the intake befor rolling her over you dont want to suck up a bunch of pine needles or insulation in your motor ( older boat diesels genrally do not have air filters )
Thanks. Great simple advice. I probably would have used a screwdriver to jump the solenoid!
I think the platform for the fuel tank is above and behind the engine, so it will be able to gravity feed if need be.
Look forward to tackling this project this fall.

Movie Poster of the Week: "Le passe-muraille" a.k.a. "Mr. Peek-a-Boo"
One of the pleasures of digging around for movie posters is coming across great designs for films that have otherwise been forgotten, that have not become part of the pantheon—or even any of its foothills—but which nevertheless are fascinating reminders of areas of cinema history that are usually ignored. The other day I posted a lovely Russian poster on Movie Poster of the Day for an adaptation of Dostoyevsky's White Nights that I wasn't familiar with but which, I then discovered, was directed by a man described as "the high priest of Stalinist Cinema." You can read more about that here.
When this terrific poster for Le passe-muraille caught my eye I knew absolutely nothing about the film, and, with the exception of English actress Joan Greenwood (Kind Hearts and Coronets), nearly every name on the poster, from star Bourvil to director Jean Boyer to author Marcel Aymé, was unknown to me. What attracted me was the unusual design, with its nod to Irma Vep, and so I had to find out more. The result is a story about a forgotten piece of popular cinema that nonetheless touches on some major players.
Le passe-muraille (alternatively known as Garou-Garou, le passe-muraille) is best translated as The Walker-Through Walls (though the English language title for the film is Mr. Peek-a-Boo). Directed by Jean Boyer in 1951, the film was adapted from a 1943 story by Marcel Aymé (1902-1967), a canonical French novelist, children's book author and screenwriter.
Aymé is so well known in France that a much-photographed statue of him in front of his former home in Montmartre pays hommage to his most famous story. Amazingly, the sculpture was created in 1989 by none other than Jean Marais (1913-1998), the dashing star of Cocteau's La belle et la bête and Ophée (and thus no stranger to crossing through dimensions himself).
The story of Le passe-muraille is that of a mild-mannered civil servant, Leon Dutilleul, who discovers that he has the ability to walk through walls. He falls in love with an English cat burglar (Greenwood), dressed like Musidora in Les vampires (see below) and attempts to make her go straight by disguising himself as a master criminal named "Garou-Garou." The film by all accounts is a trifle, played for laughs (the American poster quotes Walter Winchell damning it with faint praise as "a feathery frolic up to its dimples in whimsey!"), but was apparently popular in its time and a staple of French TV. (You can watch the opening ten minutes, unsubtitled but you'll get the idea, here. If you're impatient you can see him first walk through a wall around the 7 minute mark).
The poster for Le passe-muraille was designed by one Félix Labisse who was a surrealist painter of note. (The Irma Vep touch is fitting since Feuillade's 1915 crime serial Les vampires was much loved by the Surrealists.) Born in France in 1905, Labisse had moved to Belgium as a teenager and became a protegee of the painter James Ensor and friend of the filmmaker Henri Storck. In 1928 he and Storck founded a Cinema Club in Ostend which showed avant-garde films by Man Ray and early films of Dreyer and Lang. He even made a film of his own, entitled La mort de vénus.
In 1947, a few years before designing this poster, Labisse was himself was the subject of a short film entitled Visite à Félix Labisse, made by none other than a 25-year-old Alain Resnais. As far as I can tell, outside of Le passe-muraille, Labisse designed no other film posters, but you can see many of his paintings, dating from 1926 through to 1981, here. Of particular interest are this 1941 self-portrait, and this 1947 portrait of Jean Louis Barrault, though most of Labisse's work is dominated by Dalí-esque landscapes and oddly hued nudes.
Labisse did also draw a second, equally arresting, poster for the film which gives us a view of Mr. Peek-a-Boo from the other side of the wall, which is now used as the cover of a collection of Aymé's stories.
The star of the film, Bourvil (1917-1970), was, apparently, a huge comedy star in France. He starred most famously in the 1966 film La grande vadrouille, a.k.a. Don't Look Now, We're Being Shot At!, which may, like Le passe-muraille, not ring any bells over here, but which, for over forty years, was the most successful French film in France with over 17 million cinema admissions. Not until Titanic in 1997 did a film of any nationality beat that record, and not until Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis in 2008 (again, no bells?) did any French film surpass it. La grande vadrouille was directed by Gérard Oury, who acted with Bourvil in, you guessed it, Le passe-muraille.
There is a more conventional French poster for the film that highlights Bourvil but plays it as more of a romance.
But the international posters for the film play it as an all-out comedy. (The American poster declares "One Peek is worth a thousand laughs!" but also has one of the most groan-worthy taglines I've ever read: He's a "Funny" – she's a "Honey" and they're in love with other people's money!).
As for Jean Boyer, the director of La passe-muraille, he made an impressive 62 films in the 34 years between 1931 and 1964, many of them starring Fernandel, and none of which seem to be well known outside France. Although, a year after Le passe-muraille he did co-direct a 22-year-old Audrey Hepburn in the film that led to her discovery, Monte Carlo Baby.
One final cinephilic connection to this film: in 1996 the great composer Michel Legrand (The Umbrellas of Cherbourg) wrote a musical based on the story which played in Paris and was renamed Amour for its brief, poorly reviewd but Tony-nominated 2002 Broadway run.
Many thanks to Dominique Besson for the poster and to Clemence Taillandier for help with French pop culture.

Love these posts!
Engaging and informative as always. It's too bad that no one today could get away with the title "Mr. Peek-a-boo" in such a benign context.
Ditto what Lee said!
In his later years, Jean Marais lived on the street where the Aymé statue appears.
There are even more fun cinephile connections with Bourvil and this film…
The only Bourvil film that's easily available in the US is Le Cercle rouge, which was both Bourvil's and Jean-Pierre Melville's penultimate film (Bourvil made one more movie afterwards, though the Melville film was released later). It's completely atypical, though, given that Bourvil is credited by his full name — or a version thereof — and plays a taciturn detective, leached of any comedy.
Bourvil shares the credits of Le Cercle rouge with, among others, Alain Delon, and he played Delon's father a decade earlier in Le Chemin des écoliers, a film taken from one of the best-known novels by … Marcel Aymé.
For his part, Jean Boyer directed a version of the play Miquette in 1940 — and a decade after that Bourvil appeared in another version of the same play, directed this time, in a probably ill-advised foray into boulevard comedy, by Henri-Georges Clouzot.

Avery Johnson says sky is the limit for lowly Nets
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. There have been doubts about Avery Johnson at every level in his NBA career.
Some felt he wasn't good enough to be a player. Others said the Spurs would never win a title with him at the point guard, and there were many who felt he didn't have the characteristics or the experience needed to be an NBA head coach.
All Johnson did was play 16 years in the league, win a ring with San Antonio and post the NBA's all-time coaching record in 3 1/2-years with the Dallas Mavericks.
Johnson took on a new challenge Tuesday, the job of turning around the league-worst New Jersey Nets, and there was a cockiness about him. He smiled broadly, spoke of optimism and gave off a feeling of confidence that one expects from someone expecting to succeed again.
"I am all about the positive," Johnson said after being introduced as the Nets' 16th coach. "I am about hard work. I am about dreaming. I have a big dream right now in my mind in terms of where this franchise can go and where we can take it and I see all the possibilities."
Johnson didn't lay out a time line for turning around a team that won a league-low 12 games last season. He insisted that the team can go from worst to first with a couple of young talented players on the roster, the third pick overall in next week's draft and a rich Russian owner who seemingly will spend money during next month's free agent bonanza that might include LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
"We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but the sky's the limit," said Johnson, who spent the past two seasons working as an NBA analyst for ESPN. "We're in a great situation here with the Nets. "We've got plenty of draft picks. We've got plenty of money to spend, we've got an owner that's all in, wants to win and wants to win now."
Johnson posted a 194-70 mark with the Mavericks, guiding them to the NBA finals in 2006. He was fired by Mark Cuban after a first-round playoff series loss to New Orleans in 2008.
He takes over a team that set an NBA record losing its first 18 games and then threatened the league mark for fewest wins in a season (9), set by the Philadelphia 76ers in 1972-73.
Only a late run prevented the Nets from a season of infamy.
With point guard Devin Harris and center Brook Lopez looking on, Johnson said he made a conscious decision to be optimistic, so as not to send the wrong message.
"Where I come from is all about winning and it starts with having a winning mentality," Johnson said. "We have to get rid of the losing stench and losing mentality that we had here last year. We know it is going to take a lot of work and I don't think it's about being overly optimistic. It's about having a positive outlook. The two players who were here needed to see that conviction in my eyes."

Are there more men or women online at dating sites? How do you break the ice when e-mailing someone new? Match.com's dating expert Dawn Yanek responds to a selection of your questions in this online Q+A.
Debi in Buffalo, New York, asks: Why won't they answer you when you send a wink or an icebreaker? I've tried to start up conversations and they don't seem to want to reply or even take the time to say "no thanks." Any suggestions?
Dawn Yanek: First of all, hang in there! Dating can be difficult online or offline, but there is someone out there who is perfect for you, and that makes all the trials and tribulations worthwhile. Keep that pep talk in mind whenever you feel discouraged — as well as the fact that the person who isn't winking back at you probably isn't The One. But, you ask, what if he is The One and he just doesn't know it yet? Well, if your first impression isn't packing the punch it should, you need to alter your approaches in your icebreaker and your profile.
Let's start with the icebreaker. A general "hi" might make someone smile and then move on. But a unique and specific opening line can fan the flames of interest. Try this exercise: List your top three interests and see which of them mesh with your potential match's. For example, maybe you both love the Yankees, chocolate Labs or plain ol' chocolate. Now, tailor your icebreaker to reflect that, and inject a little playfulness and humor. (After all, dating is supposed to be fun … even if you have to remind yourself of that fact sometimes.) This technique also shows that you've taken the time to read the person's profile and aren't just cut-and-pasting the same introductory e-mail to 20 people you found attractive. It does quite the opposite, in fact -- it says that you like this person for very specific reasons and want to get to know him better.
Next, apply this type of specificity to your profile. You're a "nice girl looking for a guy who you can have fun with"? Yeah, well, who isn't?! Celebrate all that is wonderful about you with a lively, chock-full-of-personality profile, illustrated with photos that capture you living and loving life, and you will find someone who will want to join in on the fun.
Rinea in Syracuse, New York, asks: I have been talking with this guy (e-mail, IM and phone) for three weeks now. How long should I wait to meet the person on the other end?
Dawn Yanek: There is no hard-and-fast rule about when to transition from online flirtation to offline dating. If you like each other, have learned some key information (age, interests, values, general relationship history, e-mail and phone compatibility) and feel as comfortable as possible without having met, go for it. The great thing about online dating is that you can get to know someone, set your own pace and forget so many of the games people play when they meet offline, such as when to call for the first time. After all, you've already been having a relationship of sorts.

KOCHI: This is a documentary that chronicles the journey of a life well lived, for the benefit of humanity. `Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer - The Living Legend,' directed by Binuraj Kalapeetom, tracks the life and times of the former Supreme Court judge and human rights activist V.R. Krishna Iyer through nine decades.
The film delineates the journey of Vaidyanathapuram Rama Ayyar Krishna Iyer from the small village of Vaidyanathapuram in Palakkad district to the State Cabinet, to the highest seats of justice in the country and to the mantle of one of India's most venerated fighters for the welfare of humanity.
The special release of the documentary was held at E.M.S. Memorial Town Hall on Sunday. Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan released the master copy. Mr. Krishna Iyer himself received the first copy. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Achuthanandan said the description `The Living Legend' aptly suited Mr. Krishna Iyer.
A.X. Joseph, biographer of Mr. Iyer, has written the script. The film starts with scenes from his childhood at Kalpathy in Palakkad where he was born, and goes on to explore the various places associated with his life.
For the eminent jurist, the making of the film itself turned out to be an apt occasion for a journey down memory lane.
He was born in Sekharipuram village, his mother's native place, and grew up in Vaidyanathapuram.
The film revisits all the places associated with Mr. Iyer's childhood and youth. His classmates and sister Ranganayaki recall their early memories of him.
Old photographs are used well in the film to recapture the story of a bygone era. Still photographs accompany the commentary on the significant events in the history of Kerala that are intertwined with Mr. Iyer's life such as the formation of the first elected Communist Government of Kerala in which he was the Minister for Law. Mr. Iyer himself recalls the Vimochana Samaram unleashed by the Opposition and religious groups against the Government and the futile attempts made by the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to defuse the crisis that led to the dismissal of that Government.
Produced by Sabu Kidangil for Lakshmi Creations, the documentary was shot by N.V. Swaminathan. Nikhil Venu has edited it. The research work was done by Centre for Public Policy Research, Kochi.

The Bill James 2003 Handbook goes above and beyond previous publications which were devised in conjunction with baseball guru Bill James. This book provides readers not only with normal baseball statistics, but much much more as well. Just a few of these extra sections include: 1) rating scales and statistics of all Major League Baseball stadiums, 2) statistics of every Major League hitter broken down into at bats against left-handed and right-handed pitchers, 3) statistics of every Major League pitcher against left-handed and right-handed batters, 4) enough leader boards to cover just about every possible pitching and hitting statistic (for example: best batting average against fastballs; # of pitches seen per plate appearance; best % of throwing out baserunners by catchers; batting average with bases loaded, best average in 1st and 2nd half of season, FOR PITCHERS: highest # of batters faced, run support per 9 IP, homeruns allowed, % of pitches in the strike zone, 'quality starts', K/BB ratio, # of double plays induced, fastest average fastball speed in MPH, etc.) The leader boards go on and on. In all, there are 18 pages of all kinds of statistical leaders like these. One of my favorite sections of the book is the page dedicated to career assessments. This section gives a % rate of the chances certain players will reach different milestones at some point in their careers. Did you know there is a 24% chance that Barry Bonds will hit 800 homeruns in his career? These are a few of the many extensive parts of this book. Bill James and the staff at Baseball Info Solutions (the company that provided all of the statisical data) have certainly outdone themselves this time. I look forward to reading this book for many years to come.

WeTap: find fountains near you
1,000 - 5,000 downloadsAdd this app to your listsTweets por @Appszoom
Want to add the location of a fountain to a map accessible to everyone? Use the "add a fountain" function.
Where have all our drinking water fountains gone? They have been disappearing, one by one, from our public spaces, parks and offices. The WeTap app draws on the world's largest database of drinking water sources, enabling you to find the nearest drinking fountains, map new ones, and to report broken fountains so they can be fixed.
Safe, free drinking water used to be common: we all used public water fountains and bottled water was unheard of. Now too many fountains are missing, dirty, or broken. The average American now drinks nearly thirty gallons of commercial bottled water per year, up from just gallon in 1980, creating plastic waste, wasting energy and costing a tremendous amount of money.
It is time for a water fountain renaissance. Our goals including helping people get a drink, and to encourage public agencies to place new fountains in high demand areas such as downtown areas. Because this is a beta-test version, we encourage feedback. What do you like? What works or doesn't work? Do you have download or operational issues? Please contact us by email: firstname.lastname@example.com. We cannot reply or help via marketplace comments.
If you've been drinking out of plastic, we encourage you to take the tap water taste challenge. Tap water wins blind taste tests in region after region. Use the app to help others discover the taste of the tap. A few quick clicks and you can mark a fountain as working or broken, and help the next person out.
Valuing tap water – both the quality and access – is an important step to ensure our water remains safe, tasty, and protected. For more information, visit www.wetap.org.

'Intifada' Erupts in Paris Results in Firebombed Jewish-owned Stores, Synagogues (Video)
PARIS (Worthy News)– For the second straight day on Sunday anti-Jewish rioters defied a protest ban in Paris to rampage in the predominantly Jewish suburb of Sarcelles in what one police official called the "Paris Intifada," Algeminer reported.
Hundreds of mostly Arab and North African youths marched through the streets wielding bars and clubs while shouting, "Death to Israel."
The neighborhood's main kosher grocery Naouri was burned to a shell as was a local Jewish owned pharmacy. The nearby synagogue in Garges was firebombed, but little damage was done.

Welcome to more craziness.
Reservamerica.com handles the state park reservations. Rules are:
-must be made at least 2 days in advance
-no more than 7 months in advance
-all sites for the 7th month away go on sale the 1st of the month.e.g., any site in May 2014 will go on sale November 1, 2013.
Without looking I can (almost ;) guarantee any beach state campground has no weekend availability in May 2014 at this point... There may be an odd Friday or a Saturday here or there.
People use major strategy to get these sites booked, and 8 am on the first of the month is system overload for the website and phone reservation system. I've pretty much given up trying to camp in the beach parks during the summer--it takes a major piece of luck to land a site, and a serious commitment of time to get through the reservation system.
If you're flexible to stay during the week and don't need more than one day at time in a campground you may be able to land the spots you need. And May is before the major crush of school's-out reservations during the week.
Good luck!

The current governor of Hawaii is Linda Lingle. She is finishing her term and will leave office in January 2011, at which time Democratic Governor-elect Neil Abercrombie will be sworn in.
The governor of Hawaii is limited to two four-year terms. Inauguration takes place on the first Monday in December following a gubernatorial election. A single term ends at noon four years later. A governor is:
- required to be at least 30 years old,
- required to have been a resident of Hawaii for five consecutive years previous to election,
- barred from other professions or paid positions during the term.
Unlike all but two other states in the Union (Tennessee and New Jersey), Hawaii has only one elected statewide officer in the Governor of Hawaii. Also, the Governor of Hawaii has wide-reaching authority comparably stronger than the other governors in the Union; administrative powers are more centralized than that of most other states with little authority devolved to the county, and unlike other states there are no local school districts. It is because of this central authority that the Governor of Hawaii is locally considered one of the most powerful governors in the United States. The governorship of Hawaii has often been characterized by the Honolulu Advertiser, Honolulu Star-Bulletin and various other local media as an "elected monarchy" referring to the most current governors as "King Ben" and "Queen Linda" in headlines during their tenures. Included within the governor's sphere of jurisdiction is the power to appoint all judges of the various courts within the Hawaii judicial system, subject to Senatorial approval.
The State of Hawaii does not have fixed cabinet positions and departments. By law, the Governor of Hawaii has the power to create his or her cabinet and departments as needed as long as the executive department is composed of no more than twenty bodies and cabinet members. The Governor of Hawaii is also empowered to remove cabinet officers at will, with the exception of the Attorney General of Hawaii, who must be removed by an act of the Hawaii State Senate.

From a hillside in Missouri, one can look out upon a relatively nondescript valley verdant with seasonal crops. It is to here, it is said, that Adam and Eve fled upon expulsion from the Garden of Eden and offered prayer to God and it is to here, it is said, that Adam will gather his posterity at the last day. Adam-ondi-Ahman, as Joseph Smith called the valley, is a locus of human-divine communication and visitation in Mormon theo-history.There is, however, another Adam-ondi-Ahman in the … [Read more...]

Kirtland Temple: An Excerpt from the Book
On June 2, the University of Illinois Press released my first book, Kirtland Temple: The Biography of Shared Mormon Sacred Space. For my post this month, I thought that I would give the readers a small sampling of my new work. While most of my book covers the Kirtland Temple in the twentieth century, the following excerpt is drawn from my first chapter that narrates the emergence and uses of the temple in the 1830s and 40s. This excerpt pays particular attention to how Joseph Smith created a … [Read more...]

Art junkieMarch 2, 2004
Dear Artist,
Yesterday Marilyn Bonnett of Ottawa, Canada, wrote to say: "Success as an artist to me is when you go to sleep your last thoughts are about creating. When you wake up in the morning your first thoughts are about creating. It comes from the gut, from your insides."
They say that if you wake up in the morning looking for a cigarette, you're addicted. Quite a few creators--not all--fit the profile that Marilyn describes. Further, it seems there's often a relationship between our feelings of success and some sort of addictive behavior. But unlike other habits that may threaten health and happiness, this condition might just be good for you. As one friend put it: "Art's the dope, and I'm the junkie." I've always noticed that the artist's life is chock-a-block with mind-bending contradictions. Here are a few ideas how you might sniff more of the good stuff:
Work secretly. Don't let the cat out of the bag.
Share the joy. Enjoy the high with others.Work quickly. Speed speeds inventiveness.Take your time. Get it right. Take pains.
Be focused. It's just a habit.
Multitask. Do something else while the paint dries.Be self-trusting. Follow your nose to your bliss.Be strategic. Plan your work, work your plan.
Be compulsive. This dope won't kill you.
Be beguiled. Let enchantment happen.Calculate. Take time for enchantment. Pace yourself; rest, relax. Know your limit.Take trips. Great things come from altered states.Be obsessed with the pursuit of perfection.Know that perfection can never be achieved.Laugh. Fly. Go naked. Dance in the snow.Get hooked. Art is its own magic mushroom.
Love. Love of creation. Love of process. Love of others. Love for another. These are the great addictions. Success comes when you can't stop serving that which you love. "Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius." (Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart)
Best regards, Robert
PS: "For art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity or perception to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication." (Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche)
Esoterica: It could be in the DNA. Some folks may be simply wired to connect their hands and brains almost automatically, obsessively, to keep themselves learning and making. Recent research has indicated that certain life activities and values are built into us. Feelings of religious certitude, for example, seem to be related to missing DNA in some individuals. Is it possible that creators may also have a little blank spot, or perhaps a rogue gene?

A place to hide?Faith Puleston, Wetter, Germany, email@example.com thoughts by Faith Puleston...
Sometimes I ask myself if I now hide behind the painting "habit" the way I used to hide behind my stage makeup in the old days. I wonder if pursuing any artistic occupation (or preoccupation) is an attempt to find an identity we haven't been able to find otherwise. Or is it a form of escape? Is it easier in the long run to be an artist than a "normal" person?
Obeying the commandBeate Epp, Saskatoon, SK, Canada, email@example.com thoughts by Beate Epp...
Every night when I go to bed I�m figuring out composition and colour, drawing, shifting the paint. As I wake up, the same procedure again--and I can hardly wait to get upstairs and go to work. There is a strategy in all this: Every artist must imply that he is practicing 'art for the art's sake' while, being the smokescreen of such formal issues, he continues to obey a command which he cannot fully comprehend, sensing that his formal arrangements actually do refer, quite essentially but indirectly, to the single, almost inexpressible question that burns within him.

Toast Masters as modelBill McCaffrey, Lake Worth, FL, USA, firstname.lastname@example.com thoughts by Bill McCaffrey...
Besides being an artist, I'm a member of "Toast Masters International". They have a very good model to use for creative/volunteer type organizations. Some of the key features are: they are constantly recruiting anyone who will participate, members are expected to accept any responsibility they are asked to perform and if they can't, they are responsible for finding their own replacement. Responsibilities are distributed across everyone in the group and no one person ends up doing the same thing for everyone time and time again. If the group gets to be more than 50 members it splits and becomes 2 groups. These are just a few of the things that work well keeping this group alive, dynamic, and growing. Anyone who wants to organize a group whose membership is totally volunteer should try Toast Masters long enough to get the hang of how it works.
Small group valuableIsabelle Prenat, email@example.com thoughts by Isabelle Prenat...
A few months ago I was invited to join a tiny group of artists on weekly plein air expeditions. This group only wanted to get together to paint a few hours and later, while warming up with a hot drink at a nearby cafe, discuss art. The only thing I enjoyed when I belonged to larger organized groups were the demos done by the professional artists we invited. I personally get so much more out of this small group. I have 3 wonderful new friends who mentor me. No, we don't show as a group, but I think if I continue to work hard, if I listen to the wisdom, and paint a lot, then I may come to show by myself in a gallery instead of as a member of a group in a shopping mall or hall.
Not addictedJohn Ferrie, email@example.com thoughts by John Ferrie...
I am not crazy about being compared to that of a nasty and disgusting habit like smoking cigarettes! The word "addiction" is not what I would call a constructive word. It usually stems from a compulsion and is, I believe, from a lack of self-esteem. And yet, in our society, we use the word addiction like it has sex appeal. These compulsions could be compared to anything in life, from exercise to shopping.I look at being an artist as having a gift. I often take it for granted. I should be more disciplined, I should paint more often, I should read more and see more work by others. Art is my reason for living. But never have I referred to being an artist as something that I was addicted to. It is something that comes through you. I have yet to fully understand why I am an artist, something I hope to resolve by the end of my life. I don't drink, I detest cigarettes, I don't take drugs. Oh, I have a great fondness for M and M's. I have those in my studio, hidden. Does that make me an addict?
Gallery problemsAnonymousMore thoughts by Anonymous...
I have been in a mid-ranking gallery for over 7 years, during which time it has changed ownership. Last year the owners decided to up the commission on all artists who had not sold over $10K worth of work during the year. I was fortunate to have my commission remain at the previous 40%. However, last year, due I believe to the downturn in the market my sales did not make it to the magic $10K so on my last cheque, there was a 50% commission deducted---no letter attached explaining the raise or anything. (I also did not receive a congratulations letter the previous year!). For the past year, the gallery has hung all of my work in the back of the gallery, which they say doesn't matter, but I feel that they are no longer deserving the 40%, let alone the new 50%! I have broached the subject with them and they assure me that I�m still welcome there. They have done well for me in the past, but doesn't it say something about how they esteem you by where you are hung? I am trying very hard to not let this be an ego issue, honestly!
(RG note) There are times to take control and times to let control go to others. In this case I don't think there will be much difference if they are 40 or 50 percenters. Fifty-fifty is the more common rate these days. Think more about building relationships in other centers. Let this gallery hang you where they want, back or front, it's their business. It may have been inconsiderate of them to not inform you of their changes, but that's the way some of them are. Don't let their oversight jam in your craw

New generationMichael Young, Oakville, ON, Canada, firstname.lastname@example.com thoughts by Michael Young...
I believe the problem of revitalizing art societies is deeper than a lack of drive and energy of the grey hairs and the no hairs. The new generations of artists have grown up in a paradigm of much greater self interest and less sense of mutual cooperation. They reflect society fairly accurately. The value of the community of interests has given way to the "do myself" values, with all that entails. (With much individual success for some, but no resting place for the followers.) I sense the paradigm of the individual has reached its nadir and the benefits of co-operative effort will slowly take root once more, perhaps with the generation that has been worked so hard through school and university (in some cases) they will seek other ways to conduct themselves.
New life beginsSally Tudhope, Wellington, New Zealand, firstname.lastname@example.com
How timely to come by your website. I'm right on the brink of changing my life, moving city and finally acknowledging that I can no longer ignore my creativity and so enrolling for the foundation level of a Diploma of Art and Creativity. The move means leaving loved ones behind in my home city, and taking a leap into an unknown future. Couple this with the worst weather our country has seen in its entire record keeping history, which has had me abort my travel for two weeks in a row, and consequently I've been wondering if I'm really meant to start this journey both to a new city and a new life. However, reading the letters has had me realize two things. One is that creating is in my blood, and to deny myself the opportunity to nurture and encourage that is to deny myself the full, rich life I deserve. The other is that I'm not alone; there are others out there like me. There's a creative community that I am part of - I just didn't realize it. Because of your letters I have my courage back to start this new phase of my life with hope and excitement.

The biggest splash this MLB Hot Stove season has no doubt been made by the fish. The Marlins spent big bucks on Jose Reyes, Ozzie Guillen and Mark Buerhle. They've done some thrift store shopping now to complement the "backing up the truck." From Bob Wirz, Indy Baseball Chatter: The Miami Marlins are not limiting their signings to those expensive major league free agents. They have inked three players out of the American Association in recent days, which is not entirely surprising since the team's new VP of Player Development, Marty Scott, managed in Lincoln, NE this summer. Scott had both versatile Curt Smith and right-handed pitcher Garrett Sherrill with the Saltdogs while infielder German Duran was a late-season standout who helped Grand Prairie, TX take the league title. Smith hit .335 with nine homers and 48 RBI for Lincoln, then led the Netherlands to a surprise championship in the World Cup, where he was awarded Most Valuable Player honors. Sherrill went 2-1,...

Lea Michele vs. Nikki Reed: Lush Lashes Beauty Battle
Whose thick, dark eyelashes do you like better?
Both stars kept their makeup otherwise very neutral, pairing charcoal eyeshadow with nude, glossy lips. Lea shied away from colorful makeup for the awards show, letting her lashes do the talking. Her voluminous, jet black eyelashes stand out underneath her brow-grazing bangs.
Nikki's entire face of makeup was boosted by her perfectly darkened lashes. They highlight her light brown eyes so well that she doesn't even need liner to make her peepers pop.
Both the Glee star and the Twilight actress look beautiful with light, natural makeup and pumped up eyelashes, but whose makeup wins your vote?

ProduktinfoPartly on the basis of his several discs on BIS, Freddy Kempf enjoys a reputation as an explosive and physical performer but also as a highly sensitive artist. His performance of Chopin's Etudes received high praise, for instance in American Record Guide: 'At 27, Kempf has attained something most pianists strive for over an entire lifetime ... This release can justly take its place among the very finest recordings of Chopin's Etudes. The set of Liszt's Transcendental Etudes was equally well received: 'Kempf captures the essence of Liszt in playing of wistful nostalgia, yearning passion, with arpeggios and cadenzas that shimmer and scintillate' (International Piano). The programme on the present release bears witness to Liszt's contribution to piano writing: three central works in the great virtuoso literature for solo piano with qualities in terms of characterisation and timbre that have led them all to become the objects of orchestral arrangements – in the case of Mussorgsky's Pictures numerous times. Pictures from an Exhibition was composed in only three weeks in 1874, in a sort of creative frenzy following the death of Mussorgsky's friend, the painter and architect Viktor Hartmann. Some of the pictures by Hartmann that inspired Mussorgsky have now disappeared; those that have survived can be seen at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow. But to search for a direct correspondence between the pictures and their musical counterparts would be pointless: Mussorgsky sought to portray Hartmann's world more intuitively. Balakirev's Islamey was composed five years earlier, and is based on two themes. The first, called 'Islamey', is a melody from north Caucasia, and the second is a Tatar melody from the Crimea. It was long regarded as the most difficult work in the entire piano repertory, and in fact, when Ravel 1908 composed Scarbo, the third movement of Gaspard de la Nuit, he specifically wanted to write something that would be even more difficult. Based, like the other two movements, on a prose poem by the French fantastic writer Aloysius Bertrand, Scarbo is the depiction of an evil spirit of the night, while Ondine describes the futile love of a water nymph for the poet, and Le Gibet a hanged man and his gallows.

In his State of the Union address this year, President Obama proposed a plan to offer free tuition for two years at community colleges to make the path to a degree and better jobs even easier for low-income students and their families. But money isn't the only hurdle for some community college students.
Andrea Vasquez reports on a unique program at LaGuardia Community College called the President's Society where students are learning professional and life skills you can't experience in a classroom.
LaGuardia students come from more than 150 different countries, speaking over 125 native languages, yet their determination to create a stronger future for themselves and their families through higher education is the dream they all share. Long before their college journey even begins however, our students face significant obstacles—financial, academic, personal—that have derailed their goal of earning a degree and pursuing their dreams. But LaGuardia Community College is a place where students have the opportunity to not just succeed, but to thrive. Talented faculty and supportive staff give them the knowledge, resources and encouragement needed to push past obstacles, to dare to do more, and write their own futures. Programs like the President's Society, Luce World Pathways at LaGuardia Community College provide real world skills and connections for success offering opportunities to share your personal and professional insights and experiences. To hear what our students say about their path to a degree at LaGuardia, watch:

DOBSON — In what could herald a new working relationship following years of animosity between animal rescue groups and the Surry County Animal Shelter, the two groups are seeking to secure a grant that, if received, could lower the number of unwanted pets in the county.
"This is the first time it's happened, but the county and Mayberry4Paws are partnering on writing the grant," said Jane Taylor of Mayberry4Paws. "The grant is a targeted spay and neuter grant through PetSmart Charities which will allow us to target a specific geographic area in the county, and we're planning on determining where the shelter has received the highest intake numbers and targeting that area."
The money, if received, will be used to spay and neuter dogs.
"Our goal, and the shelter's goal, is to slow down the pet overpopulation in the county, prevent new litters from being born and ultimately lower the intake and kill numbers at the shelter," Taylor said.
While the exact amount of the grant is yet to be determined, Taylor said similar grants received by localities are in the neighborhood of $35,000.
She said she is pleased the shelter is opening its doors to rescue groups.
"I think it's exciting and wonderful to be able to work with the county," Taylor said. "Together we can get a lot more done than if we are working against one another."
According to Taylor, the grant isn't due for a couple of months, and the county is in the process of compiling data to complete the application.
"This grant is very data-driven, so it will take time to put the data together and complete the process," she said.
An ancillary benefit to the grant is it allows for breed-specific targeting.
"One of the things we will be able to do with this grant is use the money to spay and neuter the breeds we see a high number of at the shelter," Taylor said. "The shelter is willing to provide that information, and for example, there is a huge kill rate for labs in the county, so we would be able to use this grant money to single out that particular breed because it seems to be an issue in the county."
As for the county, Maggie Simmons, a spokesperson for the Surry County Health and Nutrition Center, which oversees shelter operations, said a new collaborative relationship seems to be forming between the county and rescue groups.
"The Surry County Animal Shelter and a committee of local rescue volunteers met recently to develop strategies in coordinating community volunteer efforts with the shelter in order to better address the growing need for more rescue organizations and foster homes," she said.
During that meeting, Simmons said the subject of fund-raising and community education arose. Out of that discussion came a move to work together on securing the grant funding.
Simmons said she is pleased to see the new, collaborative relationship forming.
"We are excited to enhance the partnerships that are being created with local rescues," she said. "We're definitely trying to encourage a partnership with the rescues and it's time for everyone to start working together."

coming from Windows (MSVC++ 2005): What SDK or alike do you recommend to port an C++ application (DirectShow+Direct3D) to Linux playing video file + using fragment shaders?
is there any reason you need a fragment shader at all? (are you doing post processing on the video images?). You don't need to do any shader coding to get a video playing with OpenGL.
I would use ffmpeg (libavcodec actually) to do the video decoding. Displaying a frame just requires an OpenGL texture and a call to glTexSubImage2D each frame to do the update.
You need to use OpenGL instead.
Some tip for the implementation:
i would also check the gstreamer framework on linux if you need to port a more complicated directshow application. it also has some sort of graph for media playback to build. it is totally different, but if you have experience and the need for complicated directshow, then you will see some analogy.
and gstreamer also has an opengl plugin for image effects and shaders, ....

Norwegian Town Uses Mirrors To Try To Come Into The Light
By editor
Originally published on Thu October 24, 2013 5:07 am
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep.
A town in Norway has spent all 100 of its winters in the shade. The town is in the mountains, and when the winter sun sinks low, its rays never reach the people in town. That may change. A local artist campaigned to have mirrors placed on a mountainside. When unveiled on October 31st, they should drop a patch of sunlight in the town square. The artist says it will be good for, quote, "the pale little children in town."
It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

The Most Beautiful Cooking Ranges
I spent a few hours yesterday at the Architectural Digest Home Design Show and, among other things, got a good dose of stove lust as a number of the high end range companies were there. Amidst all the big, beefy grills and brightly colored dials, I felt myself strongly influenced by the look and feel of each of the grills and longing for something that seemed original with not too many bells and whistles. So I decided to pull together a list of all the MOST BEAUTIFUL range companies I knew (money, no object).
