Flower Moon
Paintings by Rebecca Artemisa
Please join us to celebrate the opening of Flower Moon -- an exhibit of recent paintings by Rebecca Artemisa! Flower Moon is about finding joy and healing in survival, despite a sometimes overwhelming feeling that something that once belonged to us has shifted or perhaps been taken away.
These paintings are created using everything from gouache, ink, and acrylic paint, to blackberry juice, sage ash, and grass stains, all on repurposed wood, and draw from the artist's indigenous Mexican heritage.
Rebecca Artemisa is a self-taught Portland-based artist, originally from Los Angeles, California. She loves ghost stories, wildflowers, observing things from a safe distance, curandera magic, and being nice to people.
This event is free, all ages, and open to the public. The exhibit will run through July.

Take Cover
Exhibit by Robert Tomlinson
Join us to celebrate the opening of "Take Cover" a collection of 50 altered book covers by Robert Tomlinson. Books are more than the stories they tell. They reveal something about the people who created them. They document the times and places they come from, becoming a valuable cultural resource. But they are also alive to the reader with various invitations: to be held, to imagine a new world, to establish an ongoing and often intimate dialogue with characters.
Adults and children make scribbles and notations inside the books, often innocently illustrating daydreams or immediate frustrations. "Take Cover" is inspired by the private notations and drawings made by previous, now anonymous book owners. Tomlinson's responses to their initial efforts emerge from his fascination with the crossroads where language and the visual arts intersect. He has treated each cover as an individual work, using lots of materials: inks, pencils, paints, fabrics and objects. They do, however, like chapters in a novel, need each other.

Selfish: A Women's (Mostly) Memoir Magazine Mini-Tour!
with editor Taylor Yates
SELFISH is a project that arose from a pressing desire to explore what our world would be like if women are encouraged to be just that--selfish. To take pleasure in their work and confidently indulge their art without concern for the reactions of others. In short, to create without consequences. The word selfish bears a negative connotation, and for generations, women have silenced this need to facilitate the accommodation of others. As a logophile, Taylor Yates questioned the validity of this stigma -- believing women should encourage each other to express ourselves for our own sake?
With this autobiographical project, Selfish is doing just that. Seeking the odd, bizarre, fascinating, overwhelming, beautiful, isolating, empowering, and above all relatable stories of the women we interact with daily and those we want to know more about. They aim to build a community in which talented women can express themselves and be heard.

Fortune Favors the Brave
Book Release Party with Lisa Congdon!
A treasure trove of inspiring quotations in the tradition of the bestselling Whatever You Are, Be a Good One, this new volume from beloved author and artist Lisa Congdon gathers rousing wisdom from history's great minds on how to be bold, stay strong, and take courage. Congdon lends her signature style of brilliant hand lettering to sage advice on such subjects as perseverance ("If you fell down yesterday, stand up today" -- H.G. Wells), authenticity ("What should I be but just what I am?" -- Edna St. Vincent Millay), and confronting fear ("Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced" -- James Baldwin). Filled with uplifting reminders to seize the day, Fortune Favors the Brave shows that when embarking on a new adventure, the right words of encouragement can be a priceless gift.
Lisa Congdon is an artist, illustrator, hand letterer, teacher, and author based in Portland, Oregon.

The Dubai Traffic Court Monday sentenced a 30-year-old Egyptian to one month in prison and suspended his driving license for six months after he was found guilty of driving while drunk, Khaleej Times reported Tuesday.
The man who was arrested early on January 27th, was again found intoxicated when he appeared in court to face the charge of drunk driving. He had driven to the court in a drunken state, said the local paper.
He told the court in his 'defense' that he was not aware that it was illegal to drive while one was drunk. The prosecutor had referred the case to the court after getting him tested at the police forensic lab -- Albawaba.com

A man in his early 20s was headed south in a red Honda Accord in the 4600 block of the North Freeway around 2 a.m. when he lost control of the vehicle, which then struck a freeway wall, said Houston police spokesman John Cannon. A black Chevrolet Silverado rear-ended the Honda, whose driver then got out of the car and was hit by a gray Buick Park Avenue. A gray Honda Civic also struck the red Honda Accord and also may have been the vehicle to strike the Accord's driver, who had exited the car. The young man died at the scene. A 43-year-old passenger in one of the vehicles suffered head lacerations, Cannon said. Police are looking for the Buick's driver, who ran from the scene.

Login or Sign Up now to post a comment!1 year ago1 year agopractically DRIPPING! Ladies, feel free to correct me and tell me how you are always in need of lubrication! Next, with her about to perform her scene she is peeing and there is NO close up? NOT well lit, focused and posed photography signed by a long distance purpose shot? This photographer was either NOT worth his/her/it's salt, was under the DIRECTION of a director that was 'winging it' or wanted the masturbation to be the scene and tried to throw in some director's cut footage!2 years agoI will clamp my lips around your sopping cunt and gaze deep into your eyes as you release your whole bladder into my wanton mouth.1 year ago1 year ago1 year ago1 year agoInteresting video/scene, for me, in that there is NO true claim that this unnamed starlet is squirting! And since her fluid is given AFTER her stimulation of her pussy I feel the director is having his star pee! That is scene enough for many folks, butt, for ME the attraction is not the masturbation, which has it's OWN curiosity in that this woman finds it NECESSARY to wet her pussy FIRST! I am sorry, you would THINK that the idea would already have her wet to the point of squeaking and[[dateAdd]][[commentMessage]]0Flag This Video

Big naturals welcomes Jessyca for her first shoot. This young beautiful girl had so much to show while Jmac had so much to give. We got her nipples as hard as possible with some wintery cold water from our not so warm jacuzzi. Jmac tried on the her tits as he stuck his dick in between them which was her first tittie fuck. We are not to sure what the other lucky guys were doing with them, but we were determined to get full use out of them. The look on her face when she sat on his dick was something else. I think she was amazed about how much cock was filling her up. Jmac got her tits moving and bouncing all over the place. We hope to see Jessyca and her sexy body again soon.

News, views and commentary on Long Island, state and national politics.
Gasoline rationing in New York City and Long Island worked to clear up long lines at filling stations and reduce hoarding by consumers in the wake of superstorm Sandy.
But the idea apparently wasn't broached by a storm response panel put together by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo. The commission recommended creating a state fuel reserve and mandating that gas stations in certain areas have on-site backup generators in case of power outages. Rationing wasn't addressed.
Cuomo officials, asked later about whether the issue was discussed, didn't respond.

This study contends that The Iliad, authored by an ironic sixth century Athenian, unfolds a revolutionary critique of the martial aristocracy. Achilles is undone by his own curse of pothê upon the Achaeans, exposed to an experience of thauma, or wonder, at Patroclus' psychê, in the first glimmerings of conscience.

Our nation's Domestic Policy is absolutely required both for the health of our nation within our borders and to enable any form of outward-facing policy at the national level. A complete Domestic Policy consists of both social and economic policies. Of course, these two divisions are not truly separate from each other; I'm merely separating them to facilitate inquiry and discussion.

An attempt by Congress to curtail long-term contracts at the Defense Department could have consequences lawmakers most likely never considered.
Section 843 of the Defense Authorization Act, signed into law last December, limits the length of certain DOD contracts to five years, including options. The provision clearly is intended to protect defense agencies from their own bad habit of sticking with contracts year after year until their funding expires.
It's a tempting strategy from a contracting officer's perspective. Despite several generations of procurement reform, it takes a lot of time and energy to award a major contract. But lawmakers are concerned that DOD is not creating an environment that is competitive enough to keep costs low and quality high.
The provision, though, does not give the department enough leeway for the kind of large-scale, complex projects needed to carry out its vision of transformation. The man-hours of development and integration work on some projects can eat up five years easily, with still more time needed for deploying systems and training users. It does not make sense to force a defense agency to recompete a contract when the basic work is still in progress.
The five-year limit could also make it difficult to set up share-in-savings contracts, which lawmakers have supported in the past. Theoretically, a vendor will bear some of the upfront costs of developing a system in exchange for receiving a share of some of the savings in future years. But a five-year contract might not allow enough time for them to recoup their investment.
These kinds of complex deals, of course, come with considerable risk of cost and schedule overruns, which Congress clearly wants to avoid. But a blanket rule barring long-term contracts is not an appropriate response.
That's not to say limits aren't needed. Deidre Lee, DOD's director of defense procurement and acquisition policy, recently acknowledged that the procurement officials ended up in this fix because they had not done enough police work of their own.
Lee, the good soldier, also said she would make sure the provision is enforced for its one-year endurance. Meanwhile, Congress should be working with the department to come up with more thoughtful measures to address the problems they see and rectify this mistake next year.

Former Capital + directors jailed
Relevant offers
Three former Capital + Merchant Finance directors have been jailed for a variety of fraud charges.
Neal Nicholls, 56, Wayne Douglas, 59, and Owen Tallentire, 65, were sentenced in the High Court at Auckland today. Nicholls and Douglas were each jailed for 7 years and six months and Tallentire for 5 years.
The Crown had called for a starting point for sentencing the three of nine years imprisonment. The maximum penalty is 10 years.
But Bruce Gray QC, representing Nicholls and Douglas, argued against that starting point as it was much more severe than that used in the sentencing against Rod Petricevic, a former director of another failed finance company Bridgecorp.
Petricevic represented "the high water mark" in terms of seriousness when considered against other finance company cases which have been before the courts, Gray said.
Petricevic's starting point was 7.5 years.
He was jailed for six-and-a-half years in April, once other factors were taken into consideration
The Capital + Merchant directors were found guilty of fraud charges last month. The charges related to fraudulent transactions involving around $28 million that occurred between 2004 and 2006. The Crown maintained the transactions breached the company's trust deed and resulted in trusts controlled by the accused receiving benefits of almost $16m.
The Serious Fraud Office is appealing a separate not guilty verdict against Nicholls and Douglas over $14.4 million in lending to a Palmerston North student accommodation complex.
The SFO had alleged the loan should have been disclosed as a related party.
The not guilty verdict marked the sole courtroom defeat for the SFO in its finance company prosecutions and outgoing SFO ceo Adam Feeley said there were important points of law, that have significance not only to this case, but also other on-going finance company prosecutions.
Capital + Merchant Finance went into receivership in November 2007 owing 7000 debenture holders $167m and none of that money has been recovered.
The trustee for several failed finance companies, Perpetual Trust, is being lined up for extraordinary legal action by the receivers it appointed to Capital +Merchant.
BusinessDay understands receivers Grant Graham and Brendon Gibson of Korda Mentha are considering making a claim against the trust, which had a legal obligation to supervise the finance company on investors behalf.

OPINION: In the days and weeks following the Oscars, you'd have been forgiven for thinking the Hollywood star factory had secretly been shut down for re-tooling and opened up as a paperweight emporium.
"Where are all the movie stars?" various think pieces howled, pointing at the shuffle of turnip truck rejects and animated laundry baskets that had been paraded before the world as part of Hollywood's Night of Nights.
Sure, most of these dim and faded copies of the real stars of Hollywood's golden age - you remember, like Peter Lawford and Jayne Mansfield - had actually appeared in movies, therefore fulfilling the minimum technical requirements for qualifying as "movie stars". But we all know what was meant.
These youngsters (*cough Zac Efron Jessica Biel cough*) lacked the gravitas, the charisma, the effortless charm of the real deal; what's the point of movies if they don't have stars in them?
Part of the problem is that it's a bit tricky getting the stars of today's big movies to appear on stage to present an award, what with them being a warehouse full of computers.
Yes, since the dawn of movies the big draw as far as getting people into the movies has been technological innovation: in-camera special effects, sound, colour, making Vin Diesel look like he actually wants to kiss a woman. But in contrast to 20 years ago, increasingly the point of movies today is to show the audience amazing things they've never seen before. People? You can see a bunch of them just by turning on your television.
Oh, that's right: all the good dramatic work these days is being done on television. You want to be an actor who gets to sink their teeth into a character?
The small screen is the place to be seen, and has been for a decade or more. But as for making those television actors into "stars"... well, there's a whole bunch of reasons why that doesn't seem to happen. Maybe television is watched inside the home, making the people on it less remote and more approachable; maybe people on television are just displayed smaller than life while those on a movie screen are bigger.
Maybe being interrupted every seven minutes for a commercial for laxatives makes it hard to generate gravitas. Maybe television has Charlie Sheen on it.
Pretty much the only thing television can't do these days is pack two hundred million dollars worth of special effects into ninety minutes, and again we're back to the movies becoming more and more about effects.
This hasn't exactly sidelined actors entirely, but who were the real stars of Gravity? Sandra Bullock and George Clooney - a duo that's about as close as you can get to Hollywood royalty these days? Or all those 3D chunks of space debris tearing apart everything in their path? And why didn't the Oscars get them to present an award? Or even just use them to get award winners off the stage when their speeches ran long?
Actors do still have one perk over the special effects: the effects don't get their names on the posters. The downside there is that often their names are used merely as signposts to guide audiences as to what kind of massive special effects they can expect to see on screen.
If a movie stars Tom Cruise, we can expect futuristic war machines; if it stars Will Smith, we can expect aliens with maybe some war machines mixed in. Mark Wahlberg? Alien war machines.
And with Hollywood throwing all their cash at big special effects-heavy movies, where are the next generation of movie stars meant to come from? It's hard to impress audiences with your rendition of tortured humanity when half the movie involves you pointing up at the sky then shouting "Run, it's going to use us as toilet paper".
It's hardly surprising that most of the breakout stars of the last few years - Jennifer Lawrence, Kristen Stewart - have come from adapting young adult novels where characters are more important than action; after all, in a novel "then the spaceship exploded" is usually a less interesting phrase to read than "then she stared getting it on with her hot teacher."
Today Hollywood is running a hollowed-out business model where the only films that get made are nine-figure budgeted blockbusters or four figure budgeted indy productions. Guess which one is the best way to turn actors into stars?
If you said "neither", go get yourself an ice cream out of the fridge: the mid-range movies - you know, the ones that had to rely on story and acting to keep people interested - are exactly the kind of films that aren't being made, and without them? No star is born.
At least with the indie productions there's a slight chance your performance might attract some attention; most superhero franchises are so focused on the costumes rather than the actors wearing them that constant speculation on when and if someone new will take over has become the norm.
Which is exactly how the major corporations who own the copyright on these characters want it: turning no-name actors into stars is the exact opposite of good business for them. Stars can go off and make other movies whereas Superman or Captain America is theirs forever. They're still making (not very good) movies about The Lone Ranger and John Carter of Mars; no-one's been making any serious money off Douglas Fairbanks for a while now.
Thing is, all these factors are relatively new factors: up until, say, 15 years ago the number one sure-fire way to get audiences to see your movie was still to put a star in it. Which means that while there's a star shortage down the youth end of the pool today, up the other end it's starting to get a little crowded with all those name brand actors the current movie system no longer needs.
Franchises like the Red movies and The Expendables are built almost entirely on "check out all these big names we've gathered in the one place... and then given guns to, because quite frankly even with this many stars in the one place we doubt anyone is going to watch this movie unless we blow some shit up."
Here's two words to chill the blood: Last Vegas. We live in a world where star power is so devalued movie-makers can get a bunch of A-grade acting talents to appear in a film where they get to judge a wet t-shirt contest and then Redfoo thrusts his speedo-clad crotch in their faces. You know why there are no movie stars today? Because when you see that waiting for you at the end of your career, suddenly getting a job running the local internet café seems like a step up.
We don't have movie stars today because we don't need them like we used to. And as soon as someone puts together a successful all CGI-animated movie for adults, we won't need them at all. Just like every other form of creative activity out there, computers will eventually devalue their work to such an extent that the "stars" of the future will be wannabes giving away their facial expressions and physical gestures for free just for the chance to see a part of themselves appear fleetingly on the big screen. Tomorrow's Oscar host will be millions of lines of code running in a computer somewhere.
And if that doesn't work, there's always Harrison Ford.
