Wow. Wow. Wow. I try not to be jaded. I try to walk through this world with my eyes open, and Extreme Craft is a reflection of that. I'll admit that occasionally I can fall into a rut where I feel like I've seen it all before. I can usually count on somebody like Sandra Hartness (aka "Sandy Paws") coming into my life.

Now I could take the really lazy way out and simply direct you here where my compadre and boozing partner for the evening has already penned a glowing review, as well as provide a link to an amazing album of snaps from the evening.But that wouldn’t be the done thing…..As I mentioned in the preview, it was initially actually a bit of a toss-up between going to the inaugural Burst Noel shindig and making a return visit to see Martin Stephenson for a second successive night. In the end, it was the 942 (84). The Art of Vision (1965, Stan Brakhage)
screened December 22 2008 on 16mm at the MoMA Media Study Center TSPDT rank #677 IMDb In some ways, Stan Brakhage’s 4-plus hour magnum opus isn’t so much an epic of experimental cinema as the most intensely comprehensive horror movie that hardly anyone has seen. It’s a horror of metaphysical proportions: its five-part structure takes universal elements of existence and renders them into a symphony of shock visions and perceptory alienation. Brakhage’s summons a bracing repertoire of filming A Christmas Quote from John Donne
Here is a Christmas quote from John Donne, one of my favorite poets. These were the opening sentences of a sermon Donne preached on Luke 2:29-30 at St. Paul’s on Christmas Day in 1626. The whole life of Christ was a continual passion; others die martyrs, but Christ was born a martyr. He found a Golgotha (where he was crucified) even in Bethlehem, where he was born; for, to his tenderness then, the straws were almost as sharp as the thorns after; and the manger as uneasy at first, as his cross Holiday Traditions/Yummy Soup Recipe
My apologies for not posting this past month. The advent of some regular publications folding left me sans Christmas money, so I have been busy stretching my artistic abilities to the limit and making gifts. It's been quite fun, actually. As a poor starving thespian/artist/writer in the past, I made gifts regularly. Once I obtained steady-paying employment (a real job, as it were!) over the years, I got spoiled and purchased more presents than I made. This year I enjoyed returning to my rootsJane Lubchenco: NOAA's Ark?
By Andrew Sharpless President-elect Barack Obama's appointment of Jane Lubchenco, an Oregon State University marine biologist, to head the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration could be a major positive step for protecting America's fisheries. In recent years, NOAA has ignored scientists' advice when it comes to setting quotas for some of our most vulnerable fish species, favoring commercial interests over conservation. With a scientist like Lubchenco in charge, I hope that NOAA wiVaughn is Fall Coach of Year
By BRIAN DULIK Staff Writer At this point, any discussion of Cloverleaf volleyball history should be broken into two clear eras. There are the first 28 seasons the school fielded a team, when the Colts played the role of doormat as well as any Medina County team in any sport. And there are the last six years, when the school has become one of the premier programs in the area. The dividing line between the two eras? The moment Jim Vaughn was hired as Cloverleaf’s head coach in 2003. “That Samuel Jackson Pollock

Yesterday I began reading Murray Gell-Mann’s classic book The Quark and the Jaguar. I am thrilled that I am at last understanding (having failed before). My new prowess comes from watching Professor Steven Pollock’s DVDs on Particle Physics. I am reading the book because I think Gell-Mann’s subject for the book is a powerful metaphor (or an actually explanation) for the internet. Gell-Mann tells us that the book is about “the study of the simple and the complex.” This is a quotation from the fThe Changing Face of Leadership in Ontario Education

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Overweight kids are more likely to sustain arm and leg fractures in car crashes than their thinner peers, a study out this month in the journal Injury Prevention shows. The reasons why are not clear, Dr. Keshia M. Pollock of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, the lead researcher on the study, told Reuters Health.
