An actor whose remarkable versatility has often been described as chameleon-like, Kevin Spacey has made an art of portraying a gallery of morally ambiguous characters ranging from the mildly shady to the all-out murderous. His reputation as one of the best-respected actors of his generation was bolstered by an Oscar, a Tony, and an award as Best Actor of the Decade from England's Empire magazine in 1999.
The son of a technical procedure writer and a secretary, Spacey was born in South Orange, NJ, on July 26, 1959. His family moved a great deal thanks to his father's job, eventually settling for a time in Los Angeles. It was there that Spacey -- who had previously done a stint at military school -- attended Chatsworth High School, where he was very active in the theater. After an attempt at standup comedy, Spacey went to Juilliard, though his time was cut short after his second year, when he decided to quit school and begin his career.
He made his theatrical debut in 1981 with Shakespeare in the Park, performing alongside the likes of Mandy Patinkin and John Goodman. The actor continued to be a fixture on the theater scene throughout the decade, performing both on Broadway and in regional productions. It was through the theater that he got his first big break: While auditioning for a Tom Stoppard play, Spacey was approached by director Mike Nichols, who cast him in his production of David Rabe's Hurlyburly. The actor's work in the play led Nichols to cast him as a subway mugger in his 1986 Heartburn. Two years later, the director and actor worked together again in Working Girl, in which Spacey had a small but memorable role as a sleazy businessman.
By this time, Spacey was starting to work steadily in film, although he maintained his stage work, winning a 1990 Tony Award for his role in the Broadway production of Lost in Yonkers. He also did a substantial amount of television work, appearing on the series Wiseguy as deranged criminal Mel Proffitt. Criminal or morally questionable activities were to figure largely in Spacey's subsequent portrayals: His first starring role in a film was as the husband of a murdered woman in the 1992 Consenting Adults. The same year, he won acclaim for his portrayal of a foul-mouthed, leech-like real estate agent in James Foley's screen adaptation of the David Mamet play, Glengarry Glen Ross.
Spacey landed his next memorable film role as yet another foul-mouthed jerk in the 1994 Swimming With Sharks, which he also co-produced. He was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for his portrayal of an abusive studio executive, and he gained further recognition the same year for his entirely different role in The Ref, in which he played one half of a constantly arguing married couple. However, it was with his performance in the following year's The Usual Suspects that Spacey fully stepped into the spotlight. As the enigmatic, garrulous "Verbal" Kint, Spacey was one of the more celebrated aspects of the critically lauded sleeper hit, winning a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his work. The actor won additional acclaim the same year for his role as a serial killer in the stylish and unrelentingly creepy thriller Seven.
Spacey went on to make his directorial debut the following year with Albino Alligator. A New Orleans-based crime drama starring Matt Dillon, Faye Dunaway, and Gary Sinise, the film won some positive reviews, though it made little impact at the box office. In addition to directing, Spacey kept busy with acting, appearing the same year in A Time to Kill and Al Pacino's documentary Looking for Richard.
The actor went on to star in Clint Eastwood's highly anticipated 1997 adaptation of John Berendt's Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and then had a sizable role in the big-budget The Negotiator in 1998. The same year, he also lent his voice to the computer-animated A Bug's Life and starred in the screen ad

PARIS, Tenn. — Fred Roumbanis landed the biggest bass of the first two tournament days Thursday, an 8-pound, 4-ounce brute. While he wouldn't say exactly what lure produced the big girl, he did offer up that "it was pretty scary catching it on light line." He caught the fish on a small grassy ridge that produced another large bass in practice. Roumbanis believes it might have been the same fish.

Its been a while since I have posted some artwork, so after much drawing here is one I did a couple of months ago for a friendly competition. The theme of the particular round was set around the rims, and so I ran with a previous idea of propellor themed rims. That lead to '' Pride of Britian'' - an E type Jaguar with a heavy Supermarine theme to it. I was very happy with the result and thought that this could make for a pretty cool build.

From Jiggawatts to Pi: Movies Where Math Is #1
Calculus isn't every student's forte, but even those who are more grammar nerds than number whizzes can appreciate the inspiring talent of people who can answer complicated equations without scribbling on scratch paper or counting off on fingers and toes. We have a soft spot for movies that delve into the complicated heads of math geniuses. With hallmarks like frantic formula solving (on a chalkboard or window pane) and "aha!" moments of numeral clarity, these films are ideal to watch the next time you're nostalgic for algebra.

The Associated Press
Israeli troops fired on Gazans surging toward Israel's border fence Friday, killing one person but leaving intact the fragile two-day-old ceasefire between Hamas and the Jewish state.
The truce, which calls for an end to Gaza rocket fire on Israel and Israeli airstrikes on Gaza, came after eight days of cross-border fighting, the bloodiest between Israel and Hamas in four years.
In a letter to the UN Security Council, the Palestinian UN observer Riyad Mansour called the situation in Gaza "extremely fragile" and said Israel's ceasefire violations and other illegal actions risk undermining the calm that was just restored.
Hundreds of Palestinians approached the border fence Friday in several locations in southern Gaza, testing expectations Israel would no longer enforce a 300-metre-wide no-go zone on the Palestinian side of the fence that was meant to prevent infiltrations into Israel. In the past, Israeli soldiers routinely opened fire on those who crossed into the zone.
In one incident captured by Associated Press video, several dozen Palestinians, most of them young men, approached the fence, coming close to a group of Israeli soldiers standing on the other side.
Some Palestinians briefly talked to the soldiers, while others appeared to be taunting them with chants of "God is Great" and "Morsi, Morsi," in praise of Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, whose mediation led to the truce.
At one point, a soldier shouted in Hebrew, "Go there, before I shoot you," and pointed away from the fence, toward Gaza. The soldier then dropped to one knee, assuming a firing position. Eventually, a burst of automatic fire was heard, but it was not clear whether any of the casualties were from this incident.
Gaza health official Ashraf al-Kidra said a 20-year-old man was killed and 19 people were wounded by Israeli fire near the border.
Mansour, the Palestinian UN observer, said Israeli forces fatally shot Anwar Abdulhadi Qudaih in the head and injured at least 19 other Palestinian civilians in a border area east of Khan Younis.
During the incidents, Hamas security tried to defuse the situation and keep the crowds away from the fence.
Moussa Abu Marzouk, a top Hamas official at the ongoing negotiations in Cairo, told The Associated Press that the violence would have no effect on the ceasefire.
The crowds were mainly made up of young men, but also included farmers hoping to once again farm lands in the buffer zone. Speaking from the buffer zone, 19-year-old Ali Abu Taimah said he and his father were checking three acres of family land that have been fallow for several years.
"When we go to our land, we are telling the occupation (Israel) that we are not afraid at all," he said.
Israel's military said roughly 300 Palestinians approached the security fence at different points, tried to damage it and cross into Israel. Soldiers fired warning shots in the air, but after the Palestinians refused to move back, troops fired at their legs, the military said. A Palestinian infiltrated into Israel during the unrest, but was returned to Gaza, it said.
The truce allowed both Hamas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to step back from the brink of a full-fledged war. Over eight days, Israel's aircraft carried out some 1,500 strikes on Hamas-linked targets, while Gaza fighters fired roughly the same number of rockets at Israel.
The fighting killed 166 Palestinians, including scores of civilians, and six Israelis. Mansour, the Palestinian UN envoy, said more than 1,230 Palestinians were injured, predominantly women and children.
In Cairo, Egypt is hosting separate talks with Israeli and Hamas envoys on the next phase of the ceasefire — a new border deal for blockaded Gaza. Hamas demands an end to border restrictions, while Israel insists Hamas halt weapons smuggling to Gaza.

I got a concussion after failing to do a backside 540, so now my season's DONE. I got about 450 degrees around, my heel edge caught and BAM! Smashed my head into the ground. And then BAM! CONCUSSION!! (say that like the Mortal Kombat "FINISH HIM!" thing) So now I'm not allowed to get out there or I'll smash my head, get another concussion and have brain damage. But it JUST snowed and it sucks SO bad that I'm stuck here on this website instead of ...snowboarding. Fortunately after falling I did eventually end up making my first (WOO!) backside 540 (even though nobody probably cares because everyone on this website's so much better than me and they all probably do back 5's in their sleep to warm up for their 8460's or whatever).
I'M ALL PISSED ABOUT IT BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE SNOWBOARDING. I got like 25 minimum (easily more than 30) individual days on the snow this year, and now I can't go for the last couple weeks!!! SO STUPID!!! My head hurts. Last edited by Oatmeal; 02-22-2010 at 09:10 PM. |

Think how much you pay by the time you're done for a good vehicle and how nice it is to be covered should such a scenario happen out of your control where you only would pay 500-2k (depending on your deductible) for something that easily costs 20-40k. Or on a smaller level covering parts from an accident that again, didn't involve someone else and was your fault because let's be honest, shit happens. They could set it up to where if it was your fault you don't see a damn dime. Yet even if it is your fault it's covered. Most OEM parts involved in a crash (bumper, fenders, window, suspension, etc) from a dealer is going to cost a shit load. Let's look at the options; 1) No insurance = you easily pay 5k+ to get this covered by the time all is bought, installed, painted, so forth or 2) you have insurance and pay whatever your deductible is while they cover the rest. So I guess the argument can go to the fees we pay each year for our vehicles. Sure for most after 3-5 years it could pay for a small accident and would even out if you got in one. However it would take well over 10+ years for most for a yearly payment to cover how much it would cost if you totaled your vehicle not counting medical expenses and loss of time at office if you get hurt. Even many small accidents result in injuries and the need for medical attention while your insurance covers this. I'm guessing obviously something happened as of late to tick you off and you're just expressing your outburst frustration, but think this over a little more.
Government - If you think the problems they created are bad, just wait until you see their solutions. Screw being normal

The thing with car insurance that pisses me off is that you pay them, lets say 2 grand over a yr,
and u dont get into an accident for 15 yrs of driving, when u add all that up, its 30 grand that you paid them for nothing. And evn if u do get into an accident that was ur fault, they raise ur premium.. Umm hello...what happened to the 30 grand i paid u for 15yrs of safe driving? Car insurance is the biggest scam ever!! You should pay them monthly, if nothing happens, then that must should accumulate in your own personal " Car Insurance Bank " and if something happens, then they will take that out of ur account. Its like Communism....its sounds great on paper...but in reality its a crap-chute |

Evan Williams, co-founder of Blogger, Twitter and Medium came on stage at Roadmap to talk about Medium and what he is trying to do with his company. But the real story is that it is a design that is the core to the company – design that is rarely seen but mostly experienced. Here is my FastCompany column about all that!
Instagram killed the fashion show?
It is Fashion Week in New York (not to mention the frigid temperatures) and that usually means lot of traffic delays, sold out restaurants and in general pointless misery for normals. And apparently, not many people actually care as much about the shows — they are expensive and hard and don't really deliver, like say Instagram. So that is why more and more designers are going for a more Instagram-friendly approach, reports The New York magazine. Shall we go ahead and file this in law of unintended consequences?
What to read this weekend
It has been a tumultuous week — media people around the world are mourning the loss of beloved David Carr, media columnist for the New York Times. He was 58 and died in the newsroom — a befitting end to one true champion of all journalism. David was a real journalist and his legacy will and should be — other journalists trying to do what he did so well all his: report with rigor and honesty, write with feeling and authenticity and and absolutely love the job. He shall remain in my memories for rest of my life.
Here are some stories you might want to read this weekend — they are examples of good journalism and great writing.

Happy Birthday Slack! And Stuff Stewart Says
Slack, the company that arose like a phoenix from the ashes of Tiny Speck is now a year old. It came out of beta last February! And what a year it has been for the company — it has gone from zero to one of the fastest growing services in less than a year. It has raised a ton of money and is valued at north of a billion dollars. Both its revenues and number of users are moving up to the North. Lately, more and more people are starting to use Slack for creating their own private social spaces. I have one — and I won't be surprised if one day we start to see these special slacks start to become the "subreddit" of the mobile age.
As an investor, I am obviously excited about all this growth. But what I love the most about the company is the fact that co-founders Stewart Butterfield, Eric Costello, Cal Henderson and Serguei Mourachov are not letting the crazy stuff that is happening around them impact their life. I have been friends with Stewart from his time at Flickr and he has not let the vagaries of startup life impact his attitudes and zaniness. He has been a bit of a straight shooter. He even names his products with a bit of whimsy — for example, Slack and Glitch (the game that failed and lead to Slack.) So, on the occasion of Slack's first birthday, I put together seven things Stewart said over past year that make me yearn for more plain talk (and less PR crap) from other founders and chief executives!
- "We were sure Slack would be useful, but we had no idea it would take off as quickly as did. But that was because we had no idea of the strategic importance of chat in the workplace at the time."
- "I get in trouble with my PR team for saying this but I have no fucking idea." #
- "One billion is better than $800 million because it's the psychological threshold for potential customers, employees, and the press."
- "To me, there are only two positions a company is ever in: Talking to investors or there's a deal that's closed. You're never in the process of raising money. #
- I try to instill this into the rest of the team but certainly I feel that what we have right now is just a giant piece of shit. Like, it's just terrible and we should be humiliated that we offer this to the public. Not everyone finds that motivational, though. #
- "Everyone here must know that everyone is making too much money, and that's why we love satire. If anyone is honest with themselves, they must think that the reward is disproportionate to the work." #
- "There are no good characters named Stewart." #
Oh my! Drones over Iceland
If you love drone photography, this is as good as it gets. I have been dreaming of going to Iceland and this basically is the last straw. As soon as weather gets a bit normal up there, I am going to go on a photo tour of this place! It has been created by Xoxo, a German design and creative agency. (Additional background for the project is on their website.) Press play and enjoy!

When last we caught up with the Syosset restaurant formerly known as Empire Szechuan Gourmet, it had just changed its name to Hao. Now, Hao was the successor to Ao (which sounded too much like a cry of pain). Ao was the name the owners chose after they jettisoned Dao, which was deemed too similar to Tao, the previous incarnation and also the name of a restaurant in Manhattan that did not appreciate...

Hamilton Pool cave taken with a wide angle zoom lens. It was a breathtaking sight as I stood there as far back in the cave as I could to capture the splendor of this natural pool in Hamilton Pool, TX. Anyone who visits this park that nature has created often spends quiet time just reflecting upon its beauty and tranquility.
Paintings and drawings have always been a part of my life. My art education ended when I graduated from high school despite my art teacher's encouragement, instead I decided to pursue the science field in college. However, I've always painted from time to time. Photographing weddings on the weekends became a part of my life for a few years. Photographing children have always been my favorite part of photography as well as landscapes. Having a family, I am awakened again with the inspiration of traditional oil paintings and drawings. Please visit my fine art painting website: www.lrspencer.com Thank you.

The Hairy Housewife
I'm married and have autism and epilepsy, which I write about a lot. I keep tarantulas because I don't like cats, and I love to read.
I'm supremely accident prone and like to take photographs of my bruises for posterity. My best friends that aren't human or tarantula are socks, cocoa and Doctor Who.

Even lawyers have to make sure their practices are legal. Although a few states and cities allow attorneys to establish practices by virtue of their professional licenses, most require law firms to obtain special licenses. Further, many cities levy special taxes on professional businesses – often using local business licensing as the vehicle for calculating and obtaining revenues.
Culver City may be small, but it has a long history as a hub of the entertainment business. Accordingly, it's a very busy, happening small town with a multitude of small businesses. Culver City does not heavily regulate its businesses, although it levies a tax on all entities within its jurisdiction. A number of county licenses apply to Culver City as well as all state licenses. Despite Culver City's petite five square miles, the tiny city adjacent to West Los Angeles is home to Sony Pictures Entertainment and Sizzler restaurants. Culver City also has a robust retail sector with numerous small, independent shops.

Jennifer Lopez was a winner and Elizabeth Hurley a presenter at Friday's VH1/Vogue Fashion Awards, but the real fun didn't start until after the high-fashion show was long over. Lopez, the first-ever Versace Award recipient for best, ahem, embodying the "energy and daring" of late designer Gianni Versace, partied with a bunch of pals at the library bar of New York's swanky Hudson Hotel on Friday night, the New York Daily News reports.
Keith Richards and Paul McCartney played pool with Designer of the Year recipient Stella McCartney, Paul's daughter. Kate Hudson played cutesy couple with Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson. Other partygoers included Moby, Sheryl Crow, Chris Rock, Liv Tyler, Lara Flynn Boyle, Christian Slater and fashion awards co-host Gisele Bundchen minus her main squeeze, Leonardo DiCaprio.
All was fine and dandy until 3 a.m., when Lopez and guests decided to spill out into the night air of the hotel garden. Hotel staff showed up and ushered the wild and crazy guests back into the bar after some hotel patrons (probably tourists) complained.
Party over.
Meanwhile, supermodel turned actress Elizabeth Hurley turned heads of her own before and after the VH1/Vogue event.
MSNBC gossip columnist Jeannette Walls reports that Hurley arrived at the awards looking suspiciously disheveled with funnyman Denis Leary. Seems Hurley had smeared much of her Estee Lauder body glitter on the very married Leary's suit.
An "Access Hollywood" report Tuesday backed up Hurley's flustered arrival. As model-"Access" anchor Heidi Klum presented Hurley with a joke best dressed award -- a Barbie doll -- Hurley glared and sarcastically responded "thanks so much" before trying to make an exit.
Klum continued and asked Hurley if she was wearing any undergarments under her revealing dress. Hurley gave Klum a look of pure hatred before replying that it was none of her business. Icy!
On Saturday, Hurley was seen cozying up with millionaire Steve Bing at an Elton John concert in New York. Photos of the couple dancing naughtily were printed in London's Sun tabloid Tuesday.
Hurley has also been linked to billionaire Ted Forstmann since her breakup with her beau of 13 years, actor Hugh Grant.
What a weekend.

EAST COUNTY — As stimulus for his students, Freedom Elementary School Principal Jim Mennes has been pummeled by water balloons and blanketed with silly string.
Now, he can add another credential to his list: being drenched in slime.
"The kids keep coming up with new ways to torture me," Mennes said, chuckling, with the lime-green liquid dripped down his face.
For two weeks in May, children brought in non-perishable items such as gum, candy, beef jerky, blank DVDs and other items, to send in care packages to soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. The collection drive concluded Wednesday, May 30, with a special "Slime 'em for Soldiers" event, at which children doused Mennes, several teachers and two representatives of MacDill Air Force Base with cups of green homemade slime.
Mennes said each soldier being mailed packages is either directly or indirectly related to a member of the Freedom family. About 50 active-duty soldiers are being shipped boxes, he said.
"We'll send over about 100 care boxes," Mennes said. "Each of our soldiers will get (two or three) packages so they can share them with their buddies."
Students said they enjoyed sliming their teachers and administrators and also were grateful for the opportunity to send items to servicemen and women overseas.
"I think it really helps them," said 10-year-old Jordan Hirst, who got covered in slime after his mother, Amanda Hirst, a fourth-grade teacher who volunteered to get slimed, gave him a hug. "They need it. They really do. They need to know their country thanks them."
