Hmm unfortunately the Dell configuration thingy only allows choosing
from a Dell Wireless Card 1505 , Intel 3945ABG Wireless Card ( default
) or a Intel 4965AGN Wireless Card. From what I've read I'm guessing my
best bet would be the 3945ABG. If the wpi driver won't do the trick I
can try using ndiswrapper ( which is in the list of confirmed cards on
the ndiswrapper site ) or replace it myself with an ath supported card.
Thanks for your input; Regards,

Sabal Financial Launches Advisory Firm for CMBS Lenders, Investors
Sabal Financial Group, a lender and distressed-debt investor controlled partially by hedge fund Oaktree Capital Management, is expanding its business to help other lenders and investors push deeper into commercial real estate.
Sabal's new unit, Sabal Commercial Advisors, will provide services to investors that want to buy commercial-property portfolios or commercial-mortgage-backed securities, Pat Jackson, Sabal's chief executive officer, said on Thursday. In addition, it will help lenders underwrite loans for mortgage bonds.
Jackson said the firm is currently in "active discussions" with several investors targeting the riskiest slices of CMBS, which are keystones to new issues as a cushion against loss for senior investors. Subordinate CMBS assets typically yield above 20%, the highest among U.S. credit markets.
He expects both new and existing buyers of subordinate CMBS debt will require assistance of the advisory group, run by Ned Smith and Sarah Suther, both formerly with commercial mortgage bond services firm Midland Loan Services. Potential first-time buyers of subordinated CMBS debt include Cerberus Capital Management and Ellington Management Group.
The launch of the advisory group came as investments in commercial-mortgage bonds have surged this year as investors seek extra yield in a low-interest-rate environment. The $32 billion of CMBS issuance so far this year is already two-thirds that for the full year of 2012 and could reach $100 billion for the first time since 2007, by some estimates.
"There are so many guys that have been on the sidelines, (both) in new origination or investors looking to put money to work," Jackson said.
The influx of cash and low interest rates have helped the recovery in U.S. real estate by making it easier for borrowers to refinance properties. But the increased business has also fueled concern that lenders will loosen standards too much in a bid to boost volume, reducing the quality of loans and setting the market back on a path toward bust.
Potential buyers of commercial mortgage portfolios include hedge funds, pension funds and sovereign wealth funds. Distressed debt investors looking to book profits from earlier investments will trigger the demand for valuation services, Jackson said.
The Newport Beach, California-based firm is known for its distressed-debt investments, including servicing debt acquired by Oaktree Capital, which owns a significant non-controlling equity stake, according to Fitch Ratings. The "flagship" distressed-debt business has made nearly $6 billion in real-estate investments since 2009.
Oaktree Capital Management is a unit of Oaktree Capital Group LLC.

I'm a New Jersey resident.It's about a 30-40 minute commute to visit Dr. Hobeika. I've been a patient of his for a number of years. Dr. Hobeika is the best there is. I wont accept any other doctor. He will go out of his way for his patients. He'll explain everything to you thoroughly. Any questions will be answered in a professional and courtious manner.His diagnosis is always on the mark.The only downside is,rarely I may have to wait 3-4 weeks for an appointment.That will tell any future patients that his reputation preceeds him unconditionally.I'm still seeing the doctor for treatment and I will continue to see him in the future.Hopefully I wont have to but if I do I know he'll be there there for me. MANY THANKS to you Dr. Hobeika.
For a doctor this competent, I will wait. Dr. Hobeika has fixed my broken bones about ten times over the past 20 years -- never a complication. Other doctors tell me he is a superb surgeon. His approach is friendly, no-nonsense, & professional. He performed an open reduction on my broken leg - broken tibia and fibula - that healed perfectly according to another doctor examination. After 20 years I still ride 100 miles a week on my bike. He works for me.
Yes i would agree that his bedside manners can be abrupt at times but all in all I am able to walk he performed three surgeries after I got hit by that car when i wanted to put weight on my leg he would not let me. he insisted that he was the doctor. Today i can walk run climb stairs. ect. If it wasnt for the scar you would not know i was severely injured Thanks Dr. Hobeika
When I arrived at the office there were twenty people sitting in the waiting room ahead of me. Every seat was taken. The office staff was not pleasant and not at all attentive. It took over 4 hours of waiting to get in to see the doctor.The doctor himself was the opposite of his staff: courteous and attentive. However, I was told that x-ray viewer was down at the time and I would be contacted within a week for the results. 3 weeks later I still hadn't received a call back. So I called the office and had the results 2 days later.In sum, the doctor should replace the staff - pronto.
I am not sure if nightmare is a strong enough word to describe my appointment with Dr. Hobeika. He was brusk, cruel and rude; he refused to look at my x-rays or numb my knee when administering a cortisone shot and draining synovial fluid. He almost seemed to take pleasure in my obvious pain and tears.Furthermore, Dr. Hobeika decided that, because I am overweight, I had arthritis in my knee and refused to entertain any other possibilities. Fortunately, I sought a second opinion and learned that while there are signs of mild arthritis, my knee pain is being caused by patella femoral syndrome.I cannot advise you to avoid Dr. Hobeika more strongly. My appointment with him was, by far, the worst medical experience I have ever had.
He did a wonderful surgical job repairing after a bad accident. Office staff is rude and unhelpful

What pattern has been used for this dress? My teenaged daughter brought me a sketch just last weekend of a dress with this bodice that she wanted me to make up for her! In white, no less. By the end of May. I don't think so... but I'm still interested!ReplyDelete

Recently the political right has been throwing a tantrum over having businesses owned by churches being "forced" to go against their beliefs to provide birth control to their workers. What I find most interesting about letters like the one titled "Stand up for religious freedom" in the paper recently is that the right is blatantly saying that they think a person's rights end at work and your bosses' rights take over.
The right is telling us that you have no rights if your employer "feels" they do not agree with you.
I have read the Constitution many times and I have missed the part that says corporate rights trump personal rights. When a church goes into business they lose their religious standing; they are just another business at that point.
Yes, this argument is about religious freedom — ours, not our employer's.

Vital Signs: Full Shelves but Order Books Are Fuller
Service companies are stocking up on the supplies they need. For now it looks as if the growth in demand justifies the inventory buildup.
The Institute for Supply Management said Tuesday that non-manufacturers, mostly service providers, were busier in October, despite some worries about the government shutdown. A key positive in the report was the continued string of high new-orders readings that began in July.
High levels of demand have led to companies laying in more supplies, such as retailers stockpiling merchandise to sell. Last week's ISM factory report also showed manufacturers are booking more orders and building up inventories.
As long as companies are accumulating inventories in response to rising demand, the extra supplies and goods-on-hand are not a risk to the economic outlook. The inventory sector probably lifted gross domestic product growth last quarter. Economists at both UBS and Morgan Stanley think inventory accumulation contributed 0.6 percentage points to an expected 2%-plus growth in third-quarter GDP. Commerce will release the delayed GDP report Thursday.
While inventory growth is probably slowing this fourth quarter, stockpiling will only become a negative economic issue if demand drops in the future, because of more fiscal turmoil or a sudden downshift in job growth.

Lumosity: Does it Work?

A new Stanford study says yes
Many of you may be familiar with Lumosity (it even has its own commercial on TV now). It's a San Francisco-based company that provides an online
brain training program
, where subscribers play nearly 40 different games to improve attention, flexibility, memory and problem solving. It launched in 2007 and has about 40 million subscribers.
The commercial says the Lumosity games are based on neuroscience, but the million-dollar question is, does it actually work?
Shelli Kesler, assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Stanford University, seems to think it does.
Kesler recently led a Stanford study that aimed to measure how well Lumosity's brain training transferred into the real world. She used a small sample of 41 breast cancer patients who had been treated with chemotherapy. Past studies have shown that cancer patients who've undergone chemotherapy can experience cognitive impairment for years afterward.
The experimental group in the Stanford study played Lumosity games four times a week for 12 weeks, and results showed that they had improved word finding, executive function and processing speed over the control group.
While this shows promising results, it's important to note that the study is a bit flawed, considering the fact that it depended on self-reporting for a couple of measures.
The question of whether online brain games really work or not has been met with mixed answers. Psychologist Susan Jaeggi (an assistant professor at Maryland Neuroimaging Center) will tell you it does work after her 2008 study found that online brain training increased intelligence. However, a Georgia Tech study found that they had no effect on its participants.
Also, a 2009 study by researchers at the the University of Rennes, Brittany, found that
the video game "Brain Age"
(which claims to offer benefits similar to that of Lumosity) didn't help students very much in memory tests.
Personally, I love Lumosity. I make it a point to jump on the site once a day (when I can) and play the 3-4 games Lumosity has chosen for me for that particular day. Once I've played those games, Lumosity calculates my BPI (brain performance index) and tells me to come back tomorrow. I can't play anymore for the day because I signed up as a free subscriber. If you pay, you unlock full access to more gameplay and user statistics.
Even if I am using the free version (and that may mean I'm not getting the optimal amount of training needed for real cognitive improvements), I really look forward to my daily Lumosity training. It's become a lottery of sorts, where I wonder which games I'll be able to play that day and whether or not they'll be any of my favorites.
But that's the thing. Lumosity tends to send the same games to me over and over (they're usually spread out over different days of the week while gradually introducing new games here and there). I get it, repetition will make you better and raise your BPI, but I can never tell if I'm actually experiencing any cognitive improvements in the real world or if I'm just familiar with the games, so I know what to expect when playing them.
What's your take,
readers? Do any Lumosity (or any other online brain training game) players out there feel they've started remembering where their car keys are more often after playing for an x amount of time?
Oh, and for those who are curious as to how much the paid version of Lumosity costs, it's $14.95/month. Or you can pay $6.95/month if you commit to a full year, $4.99/month for a two-year commitment or a one-time payment of $299.95 for a lifetime subscription.

It just sums up to....
Activity, brain activity, physical activity or combined activity will keep your brain in good shape. I know a lot of elders (The gym which I attend to is full of them) that are well versed in up to date topics on technology, politics, economics or sports, as all those topics have related mathematics knowledge and exercises, they keep sharp. On the other hand I know elders in asylums that are supposed to be "engaged" in activities that are "challenging" to them, but I think those are "toned down" for them, their games are chess or checkers, instead of a good game of billiard or "elder soccer", so they are not as "sharp" as the others are.
Some physical impairments are always a roadblock for some people, but not everyone lets those stop them for doing something they love, I think that there is where the key on brain improvement is.

The time-tested combo of Andy Pettitte and Mariano Rivera made sure the Yankees were not swept by the Red Sox to open the season. Fill-in first baseman Lyle Overbay provided the Bombers their first lead of the season with an early two-run single in support of Pettitte, who twirled eight innings of one-run ball for a needed 4-2 victory over Boston.

JANUARY 3, 2012 — Detroit City FC's inaugural season was nothing short of hat trick for owners Sean Mann, Todd Kropp, Alex Wright, Dave Dwaihy and Ben Steffans: the team made the playoffs of the National Premier Soccer League's Midwest Great Lakes Conference, finished with a respectable regular-season record of 5-2-5 and, perhaps most importantly, generated a level of buzz and fan loyalty that was unimaginable pre-season.
"We had eight home games and averaged 1,200 fans per game," says Mann. "Attendance increased 10 to 20% each game between word-of-mouth and repeat customers."
The team saw an extremely enthusiastic fan base develop, mirroring the soccer culture predominantly seen in S. American and Europe. There were supporters clubs marching to the games, away game fan road trips, drums, rowdy cheers and chants, smoke bombs (until that was kiboshed for safety reasons), tons of DCFC gear -- both sanctioned and not -- face paint, and banners and signs that collectively displayed a rabidity that surprised many first-time soccer match attendees. It would not be a stretch to say that a "Le Rouge" -- the team's nickname -- culture became quickly entrenched.
In the winter before Year 2, the owners are spending time supporting DCFC team members that are active college players, designing merchandise for next season and developing fun game promotions and sponsorship opportunities. Last year saw free bike parking and a jean short cannon, so who knows what to expect.
Mann thinks the DCFC's success is due to many factors.
"Sports have infiltrated every aspect of our lives, it's a common denominator," he says. "Soccer, globally, has a reputation about being about more than the club, and that resonates here in Detroit." He points out how the club's motto -- "Passion for the city - passion for the game" -- plays into that symbiotic relationship.
The size of the club -- it's not the Lions or Tigers, that's for sure -- plays a role as well. "Not to diss any major sports team, but Detroit is a unique city and that's why we love it," says Mann. "Major league teams, the experience is pretty much the same in any city, but the DCFC is unique and special."
One of the most resonant ways DCFC nurtures that uniqueness is by working with small local businesses, including Pure Detroit, as both sponsors and partners of the club. "It's a positive narrative for the city, so the businesses latched onto that in one respect," says Mann. "And there were fans from all over the region at these games, so it was a good avenue for promoting small business in the region." He says there will be even more fun and more frequent small business promotions in 2013.
As Le Rouge fans say, "City 'til I die!" But hopefully they can hang on until the season starts up again in May. There will again be 8 homes games: 6 league matches and 2 friendlies, which will take place Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons. Home pitch will again be Detroit Cass Tech High School.

Chevrolet is redefining modern performance with the debut of the all-new Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray. And only a Corvette with the perfect balance of technology, design and performance can wear the iconic Stingray designation. The 2014 Corvette Stingray is the most powerful standard model ever, with an estimated 450 horsepower (335 kW) and 450 lb.-ft. of torque (610 Nm). It is also the most capable standard model ever, able to accelerate from 0-60 in less than four seconds and achieve more than 1g in cornering grip. It is expected to be the most fuel-efficient Chevrolet Corvette, exceeding the EPA-estimated 26 mpg of the previous model.
"Like the '63 Sting Ray, the best Corvettes embodied performance leadership, delivering cutting-edge technologies, breathtaking design and awe-inspiring driving experiences," said General Motors North America President Mark Reuss. "The all-new Corvette goes farther than ever, thanks to today's advancements in design, technology and engineering."
The all-new Chevrolet Corvette C7 Stingray shares only two parts with the previous generation Corvette. It incorporates an all-new frame structure and chassis, a new powertrain and supporting technologies, as well as completely new exterior and interior designs. The 2014 Corvette C7 Stingray coupe goes on sale in the third quarter of 2013.

It works very well. No problems with it and it does what is supposed to. The only problem I've seen is it doesn't screw into the bottle.
Pump seems like it will last, but after pumping it continues to drip for a bit which can leave a mess. I thought I'd be able to use it so I could use the 1/2 gallon bottle directly during massages but that definitely is messy and cumbersome. So it will be better for just refilling smaller bottles... but even then, be aware that it will continue to drip for a bit after dispensing.
It's easy to use and to pump into a smaller bottle.

The LeRoy Neiman Center: SAIC's Home Base
On February 12 design blogs +MOOD and Dexigner highlighted the LeRoy Neiman Center—SAIC's "central focus point" on campus. Writer Jimmy M. states the new Student Center "addresses a challenge faced by many urban colleges lacking a main campus: the need for a 'home base.'" Designed by Valerio Dewalt Train Associates (VDTA), the Center "combines offices and spaces for meeting, studying, lounging, and dining while offering a sense of identity to the student body," he adds. Both articles highlight the inclusion of the monumental Summertime in the Indiana Dunes, a large mural by main donor and artist LeRoy Neiman. "VDTA created a special viewing area for the painting in the lobby of the building. The painting had to be bent to fit; it turns a 90-degree corner. The result is a striking visual display at the building's entrance." An accompanying collection of vivid images detail the dynamic environment shared by the SAIC community.

Santa Anita's winter-spring meet starts Wednesday
Winter will turn to spring by the time the Santa Anita's 76th race meeting ends next year, but in the meantime, there will be 71 days of exciting horse racing at the Great Race Place.
And who knows, maybe the meeting will produce a Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner as it did last year in the Paul Reddam-owned and Doug O'Neill-trained I'll Have Another. If it does, that 3-year-old will have to earn points based on the Kentucky Derby's new qualifying points system to fill the 20-horse Derby field. Santa Anita will host two Derby prep races worth 10 points to the winner with the Sham Stakes and Robert B. Lewis. It also will have a race in the Derby Championship Series, with the San Felipe set for the first leg of that series and worth 50 points to the winner.
It all starts Wednesday with a special noon post time and a bonanza of two Grade I stakes and a Grade II. There will be 41 graded stakes races during the meeting, nine of them Grade Is, and a total of $10 million in stakes money on the table for horsemen.
The Lumber Guy leads a talented field in the Grade I, $300,000 Malibu Stakes for 3-year-olds at seven 7 furlongs. Trained by Neil Drysdale (who took over for New York-based Mike Hushion) and owned by Barry Schwartz, The Lumber Guy was second in the BC Sprint at Santa Anita back in November. This will be his first start for Drysdale, and he'll have to fend off three shooters from Bob Baffert's barn. Baffert will send out Fed Biz, a disappointing ninth in a 10-horse field in the BC Dirt Mile, Drill, Castaway and Guilt Trip in the Malibu.
The Grade I, $300,000 La Brea Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at seven furlongs will feature My Miss Aurelia, trained by Steve Asmussen. She was second to Royal Delta in the BC Ladies Classic.
And finally, the Grade II, $150,000 Sir Beaufort Stakes will draw 3-year olds for the turf race. Baffert is sending out Midnight Crooner, owned by Arnold Zetcher.
In addition to giving away the traditional Santa Anita calendar to all fans attending opening day, Santa Anita is spiking the betting pool with a $400,000 guarantee in the Late Pick 4.
The 71-day meeting will be covered by HRTV, which this year has added Christina Olivares Blackner and Kurt Hoover to the broadcast team. This marks Hoover's 26th season at Santa Anita, but first as full-time member of the HRTV crew.

The old and new significance of political economy in diplomacy
In a growing number of countries diplomatic systems are being overhauled so that the commercial activities of diplomatic services have been centralised, the commercial activities of diplomats have been extended, and business interests have been formally integrated within diplomatic systems. These changes result directly from the tendency of governments to reorganise, and in many cases merge, their trade and foreign ministries, as well as the strategy of building formal business–government links within diplomatic institutions. While none of these features is unfamiliar to previous diplomatic systems, what is exceptional is the relative neglect of the commercial aspects of diplomacy within diplomatic studies. This lack of attention to the commercial and business elements of diplomacy in traditional theories of diplomacy means that we find ourselves trying to analyse contemporary changes to diplomatic organisation and practice without a suitable conceptual and analytical framework. Highlighting the significance of a political economy approach to diplomacy, and also engaging with orthodox approaches to diplomacy, this article begins to develop some analytical and conceptual tools to better identify, explain and understand changes in diplomatic systems as well as the increased influence of private interests in diplomatic practice now under way.

National Post talks about bringing Jones back to life
On Saturday, May 14, 2011, the National Post investigated the renewed interest in the work of late Toronto/Hamilton author Jones, including the new reissue of The Brave Never Write Poetry:
When Daniel Jones committed suicide on February 13, 1994, at the age of 33, he left behind one published collection of poetry, one published novel, and a handful of chapbooks. His legacy, however, was still being written. A book of linked stories, The People One Knows, was published shortly after his death, while his novel 1978 was posthumously published in 1998. These books, and everything else Jones wrote, eventually went out of print, and he was in danger of being forgotten by the city he chronicled.
That's why the current resurgence of interest in his work is interesting. His seminal 1985 collection, The Brave Never Write Poetry, which he published at the tender age of 26, was just re-released by Coach House Books, while 1978 is being re-issued by Three O'Clock Press. And later this week, at a bar in Parkdale, his life and work will be celebrated by a cross-section of Toronto writers and musicians.
"It's kind of bittersweet," says his former girlfriend Moira Farr, author of After Daniel: A Suicide Survivor's Tale, an excerpt of which, coincidentally, appears in the just-released Penguin Book of Memoir. "The renewal of interest in his work is great. I'm quite happy -- well, I wouldn't say happy. I don't think it's a happy thing when someone so talented [dies] so young, but what he left is clearly still speaking to people."

Microsoft is continuing its ad campaign comparing its various Windows 8 tablets to the iPad with a new television spot featuring the Dell XPS 10. This time around, the Redmond-based company takes a jab at the iPad's inability to pinch-to-zoom on the home screen, as well as not having an SD card slot or do any split-screen computing.
Just like with past commercials, Microsoft steals Siri for this one as a mock of sorts to Apple's virtual assistant, when Siri tells its users that "you can't do that," or "I don't have an SD card slot." Then, the ad ends showing the price comparison of the two tablets, with the iPad 32GB costing $599, while the Dell XPS 10 32GB model costs only $399.
Of course, the iPad does offer adapters that you can buy to plug in memory cards that are rather cheap if you get a generic one on eBay, and while Microsoft touts that its Windows 8 tablets can do "more than one thing at once," Apple's recently unveiled iOS 7 shows that multitasking is improving on the mobile operating system. As for pinch-to-zoom on the home screen, well, we don't really think that's too much of a deal.
Microsoft released Office 365 for the iPhone today, but left out the iPad for some reason. If you recall, Microsoft scoffed at the iPad for not having the ability to support PowerPoint (of course, that's mostly Microsoft's fault), so we're guessing the company is leaving out the iPad in its Office 365 release just so they can berate the Apple tablet just a little while longer.

Sophie Lisa Beresford: Mackem, Geordie Magick
- 11 June — 3 September 2016 *on now
Sophie Lisa Beresford's work intertwines pantheism, feminism, mysticism, and localism as part of a highly personal vision of how to we can make the world a better place through the power of art. She espouses the idea of liberation, trying to expand our consciousness and our social conscience.
Her pair of new exhibitions reveal a brand newly commissioned series of seven monumental photographs. Each is a tableau showing her in a shamanistic persona in a location connected to her place of birth, and spiritual rebirth. The series spans places that are beautiful and brutal, with each treated equally as a space of potential transformation and becoming. Each exhibition is also framed by cloudscape murals that lull us into a sense of serenity – at least momentarily.
Beresford's aims are those of the great 1960s and 1970s performance artists: to emancipate our minds, bodies and our social body alike. She suggests that ideals are, now, the most uncomfortable and
unfashionable ideas of all. She also suggests that the true story of modern art from William Blake to Beuys is of artists working both to expand the horizons of both our consciousness – and of our social conscience. Modern art is and must be immune to insincerity, though not irony. In her new works, it is as though she is channeling Blake and Beuys along with Carole Schneemann, and Valie EXPORT to reignite the true flame of modern art. Beresford proposes that the 1960s ethos of liberation – a quaint, forgotten, almost laughable notion – has finally found its time. A time, that is, when art is owned by and made for billionaires; and when socio-economic and gender inequalities are mistaken for eternal realities instead of mind-forged manacles.
Beresford has exhibited internationally including at VeSch, Vienna; Abrons Art Center, New York; NADA Art Fair Miami; Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, Dundee, and the Laing Art Gallery where she is also represented in the permanent collection. She was awarded 'Artist Newcomer of the Year' in The Journal Culture Awards 2010.
The exhibitions are part of the three-year project 'Happiness is a New Idea' that celebrates the fact that every visit to a library or gallery can plant the seed of a new idea in our minds. Libraries and galleries are, arguably, the greatest civic inheritance bequeathed to us by our Victorian predecessors. Both are free and for everyone – and, now, under immediate threat. Both types of civic space offer the chance to learn about other ideas and beliefs, and are the only spaces in cities that ask nothing of us except our imagination.

John Lawrence: Sickly Revelations*
- 2 July — 24 September 2016 *on now
John Lawrence presents Sickly Revelations* in Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art's Gallery 2 space. The exhibition tours from Oriel Davies Gallery, Newtown in Wales and Project Number, London, where it was presented earlier this year.
Encompassing film, objects, printing and publishing, Lawrence's practice focuses on our mediated experiences of the contemporary world. Sickly Revelations* articulates how we communicate ideas through the production of cultural objects with a particular focus on movies, gaming and online platforms.
Central to Sickly Revelations* is a film in three parts including a soundtrack by musician Mark Good. Respectively titled, The Observer, The Receiver and The Transmitter, the piece incorporates the banal observations of an unseen narrator, focusing on his home cinema and audio/visual equipment that can be seen strewn across his floor.
Lawrence aims to question our engagement with, or detachment from, the 'real world' and our shifting position within an increasingly networked, technologically infiltrated system. Alongside the film, a series of posters will be installed throughout the Arts Centre and Sunderland City Centre incorporating enigmatic phrases. Beginning with the words 'Some people...' they appear to list both the symptoms of some self-diagnosable contemporary condition at the same time as referring to the banality found in everyday life.
Unique editions of these posters will be for sale for £50 from the gallery during the exhibition.
Sickly Revelations* will also be accompanied by a new publication bringing together writing featuring contributions from Dr Cadence Kinsey, John Bloomfield, Rachel Wilson, Niki Russell and the artist.
Parallel to his practice John Lawrence also runs After/Hours/Drop/Box - a commissioning platform at the intersection of music, video and live performance, Or maybe it's the same for everyone — a print publication for artists' short fiction and experimental writing and Oh - a publishing imprint with artist Mat Jenner.
John Lawrence (B. 1981) graduated from the Royal Academy Schools in 2010. Selected recent and upcoming exhibitions and projects include The Happy Hypocrite #ACCUMULATOR_PLUS (Book Works), Work/Leisure Residency (in association with Grundy Art Gallery, Blackpool), X 308: SPACE, SITE AND THE SCREEN (Big Screen Southend in association with Focal Point Gallery), Dry Riser (Solo show, One Thoresby Street, Nottingham), Super Woofer (Matt's Gallery), Sunscreen (New Art Exchange, Nottingham), Spectrum: Survey of Artists' Moving Image (Breese Little, London), Residency in a Record Store (with Pangaea Sculptors' Centre and Flashback Records, London), Open School East (Associate Artist, London), The Existence of Flamethrowers in Your Street (126, Galway), Oriel Davies Open Overall Winner (Newtown, Wales), Pre Owned: Looks Good Man (Cell Project Space)

Graham Dolphin
- 2 July — 22 October 2016 *on now
Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art (NGCA) present a major survey of works by Graham Dolphin. Encompassing drawing, sculpture, sound and video the exhibition will include works drawn from private collections alongside new pieces created specifically for the NGCA. Over the last 15 years Dolphin has developed an extensive body of work exploring issues of fandom and idolatry, often with a meticulous and highly crafted approach to making. A graffiti-strewn door, lyrics carved into a vinyl record, a heavily worn bench carved with messages to a recently departed rock star, Dolphin offers sacred sites for a secular age.
While Dolphin's sculptures often have the look of something found, they are laboriously constructed using materials such as plaster, tip-ex, biro, felt-tips and graphite pencil. The artist harnesses readily available and cheap materials found in hobby stores and office stationary cupboards. Dolphin elides the materials of the workplace and the home, focusing our attention on issues of labour and time. In new works such as '660 Hits' (2016) Dolphin smashes up an electric guitar, filming the process and then painstakingly re-assembling it.
The gesture recalls Jimi Hendrix smashing his guitar on stage in the late Sixties. The seemingly impromptu act of public catharsis was, in fact, the suggestion of Hendrix's manager. This iconic act of rebellion was a carefully choreographed piece of PR. The smashed guitar is a motif within the history of rock music and one can look towards Kurt Cobain's ironic rehabilitation of the act in the Nineties as an attempt to amplify the uneasiness between authenticity and artifice. By smashing and then repairing his guitar, Dolphin rewinds the choreographed moment(s) of destruction(s), with the ameliorative gesture of repair.
More recently, Dolphin has started to invert these forms of idolatry by asking amateur artists found online to draw portraits of him from a brief description. Situated throughout the exhibition, these drawings are at points surreal, affectionate and comical. The work operates as a type of anthropology, perhaps revealing more about the authors of the work than the represented subject. In a similar gesture, Dolphin has invited the musician Jad Fair to compose a song about him based on a brief description which acts as a soundtrack to the exhibition.
Running through all of Dolphin's work of the last 15 years is an interest in how we construct our own identities through the identification of others. While cultural activity is often communal and social; listening to music, just like making art, often involves deeply personal acts of withdrawal. Situated somewhere between a hobby and work, making art in the studio requires a particular type of semi-private labour.
The exhibition at NGCA coincides with further presentations of new work by Dolphin at Tyneside Cinema, Newcastle and National Glass Centre, Sunderland and will be supplemented with a series of new essays written on the artist as well as an extensive public programme of events.
Graham Dolphin (B 1972) is based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Recent solo exhibitions include Stockholm Music & Art Festival, RIP Lora Reynolds Gallery, Austin, View, David Risley Gallery Copenhagen. Recent group exhibitions include The Curves of the Needle, BALTIC 39, The Secret Self, NEST, Are You Alright? Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto. He is represented by David Risley, Copenhagen and Seventeen, London.

Effectiveness of Aikido in a combat situation

Re: Effectiveness of Aikido in a combat situation
Mary Malmros
When I read Erick's words, I thought of lines from T. S. Eliot's poem "Ash Wednesday":
Teach us to care and not to care
Teach us to sit still. [/i]
Eliot is always welcome. The discussion had actually already recalled to me this line of his: ""I will show you fear in a handful of dust."
Mary Malmros
"...to care and not to care" -- does that perhaps describe the line that separates connection from attachment? Feeling that a connection exists, but renouncing attachment to the outcome? And was Eliot only able to renounce such attachment when he finally accepted that he didn't control the outcome?
In one way of viewing it, non-attachment is a way to harness the ego -- by diminishing it, in a sense, to but another object among others, an identity of objects.
The other option -- the mode of aikido as I see it (and while we are at it, Christianity, explicitly) is enlarge the "I" to include the one attacking me, my neighbor and, ultimately, the Godhead itself. Neither O Sensei's declared goals, nor the Two Great Commandments of Christ leave any room for misunderstanding on this one. Love results in an identity of subjects.
As an infant, my unruly arm was not made obedient to my will by beating it into cowed submission. I learned it was part of me and began to cooperate with its nature and thus to make it more fully of me, nor as a matter of will, at all, but as a matter of perfect identity. My arm, after a few months accommodation ("to make fit") is now just "me." In raising my hand I do not "will" an "it." I simply move myself.
My neighbor, my enemy, indeed, my God, is no different, and the means in every case is exactly the same -- Love. Many people accept this as a sympathetic and even intellectually valid principle of the mind and heart. We are, for better or worse not merely minds and hearts, but messy, hormonal, instinctive bodies -- "this quintessence of dust." Aikido is teaching this lesson to the as yet recalcitrant body.
