I was lucky enough to encounter JB Snyder in Phoenix, Arizona as an artistic force in the vibrant art scene. His mesmerizing graffiti murals in kaleidoscope colors grace many buildings along Roosevelt Street, better known as "Roosevelt Row". Often likened to stained glass windows, each piece has become a landmark downtown.
So it's no wonder that when I was asked to document JB participating in Jetsonorama's Painted Desert Project, I jumped at the chance. The project is one that speaks to anyone who has ever wanted to give back to a place they love, somewhere they call home.
"I'm just trying to reflect the positivity I have been allowed to experience from the people for the past 25 years," Chip says. "It's like I'm holding a mirror up and saying, 'Thank you for letting me experience all this.' And to the youth I'm saying, 'Learn from this!'"
Starting in Phoenix with no less than 70 cans of spraypaint and a few gallons of water, we headed up to the swirling hills of Antelope Valley, just South of the Grand Canyon. The rest of the day I watched JB Snyder craft his vibrant window from start to finish into the emptyness of the desert. If you're ever driving back from the Grand Canyon, keep and keen eye out and you may just see this and many other love letters to the Navajo Nation.

It was an intense week at UNC-Chapel Hill last week after the tearing down of the century-old campus Confederate monument known as Silent Sam, and a few local people have been a part of it.
Barry Brown, a member of ACTBAC, often called a neo-Confederate group, was charged with simple assault Saturday, Aug. 25, after allegedly punching a protester blocking him from taking flowers to the pedestal where the statue stood before a crowd of protesters pulled it down Monday, Aug. 20.
Several videos are circulating. They show two and then three young men blocking Brown's way. Brown steps to the right and then left, and the men move to block him from getting to a small crowd with Confederate flags closer to the pedestal. Someone takes the flag from his right hand and another reaches for the flowers in his left hand, and Brown punches him in the face. The young man doesn't visibly react and keeps eye contact with Brown as the police step in. The complete encounter takes about 20 seconds from the time Brown approaches the group.
Williamson told the Times-News on Sunday that he knew of four people from Alamance County who went to Chapel Hill this week to participate in the back-and-forth demonstrations in the wake of the statue's toppling.
Williamson said the group is not changing its tactics and is still a nonviolent organization, but stands by the war rhetoric.
Williamson said those were just a few among hundreds of comments and some of them were made by false accounts, something the Times-News was not able to confirm Sunday. Williamson said he is the only moderator for the ACTBAC page and was occupied with a family matter and hadn't removed all the objectionable comments right away, but said ACTBAC was not responsible for them.
"They're not our members," he said.
Founded as Alamance County Taking Back Alamance County in 2015, ACTBAC plans a "Silent Sam twilight service" at 8 p.m. Thursday in Chapel Hill, which Williamson said will be peaceful.
On the other side of the Confederate monuments debate is Kristen Powers, a Democratic candidate for the Alamance County Board of Commissioners. Last week's edition of The Alamance News included a photo of her smiling in front of the empty Silent Sam pedestal with a group including three members of Downhome NC Alamance Chapter, a liberal activist group that has protested the 287(g) program and the prosecution of the so-called Alamance 12 for voting by convicted felon.
Powers posted on her campaign Facebook page Friday, Aug. 24, that she hadn't been there when the crowd pulled the statue down, but got there about an hour later. She had been at a commissioners meeting that night, as had a number of people with Downhome NC.
"I think the confusion has been that people think I was personally involved," Powers told the Times-News on Sunday.
"I wish there was a legal means for us to be able to take the statue to private property, like a cemetery or a battle site, or donate it to any descendants of the Confederacy who may want it," Powers said. "It is unfortunate that Silent Sam came down through a dangerous or illegal act.
Powers grew up in Chapel Hill and knows a number of people who still live there and attend the university. Some of them, she said, have strong feelings about Confederate monuments.
"For those who do know what they stand for and what is behind it, I think it can be difficult to walk past that every day on the way to class," Powers said.
Since the photo came out, Powers said, she has been the target of threats and harassment online, and threatening calls and messages on the phone she uses for her campaign.
Powers said she spoke to a security consultant and took measures to make it harder to get her and her family's personal information, though she said she is still available to voters who want to talk.

The Dark Knight Goes Plastic: 'The LEGO Batman Movie' Is Fun, Hilarious and Surprisingly Deep
Let's face it: The Dark Knight has been really living up to the word "dark" since Tim Burton's Batman came out 28 years ago. He can certainly be a morose sourpuss.
Wait a minute … has it really been 28 years since Burton's Batman came out? Holy crap! I just totally freaked myself out. Hang on … I need to catch my breath and gather my thoughts. It's been nearly three freaking decades since Nicholson played The Joker? I need to drink five beers.
All right … OK, I am back. As I was saying, Batman has been a downer at the cinemas. Even when he wasn't being quite so dour, he was just plain sucking in the Joel Schumacher Batman movies that started coming out 22 years ago.
Wait a minute … did Kilmer really do Batman more than two decades ago? I think I'm having a panic attack. I have to do the breathing-into-a-brown-bag trick … I'll be right back.
OK, back. Granted, Batman is inherently dark by nature, being all orphaned and inspired by bats and dispatching vigilante justice at night and whatnot. But, hey, sometimes it's good to have a laugh or two while watching the Caped Crusader do his thing, if only because some of us have a sweet spot for the time when Adam West played the character for laughs in the original Batman TV series, which went off the air 49 years ago. Wait … 49 years ago?
OK … seriously. I have to take a long break and contemplate my life before finishing this review. I'll be back in the morning after a good cry and extended sleep.
Sorry, where was I? Oh yes, Batman. Batman's a trooper all right, having survived the debacle that was Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. (Ben Affleck is a good Batman; his cinematic vehicle was not.) Thankfully, The LEGO Batman Movie is the great Batman story that Batman v Superman failed to be.
Even better, it has Will Arnett voicing Batman in a new, super-amped, yet dark incarnation that is surprisingly well-rounded. After all of these years watching dark (and sometimes brilliant) Batman movies, it's nice to have a vehicle where we can just have fun with the character.
Director Chris McKay, along with a long list of writers, has come up with a story that will please adult Batman fans as much as kids. Arnett's Batman not only faces off against the Joker (a very funny Zach Galifianakis), but he finds himself in a scenario in which he's battling a smorgasbord of movie villains including King Kong, the Gremlins, Dracula, evil British robots and Voldemort (Eddie Izzard), to name just a few. It's a nutty plot element that also allows for Batman mainstays like Bane, Two-Face (Billy Dee Williams, who voiced Harvey Dent in Burton's Batman) and the Riddler (Conan O'Brien!) to get in on the act.
It's a geek-fest—a movie-lover's delight that has funny little trivia at nearly every turn, and an emotional center (Batman has family issues; the Joker longs to be hated) that gives the movie a surprising depth among the chaos.
Michael Cera and Ralph Fiennes bring good humor as Robin and Alfred, although Fiennes doesn't voice Voldemort, which seems like a wasted opportunity: You had the real Voldemort on hand! It just seems like some money could've been saved. Oh, wait, maybe Fiennes actually costs more than Eddie Izzard, and Fiennes would've demanded full scale for two characters rather than one. OK … I'm distracted again.
The LEGO Batman Movie gives us a Batman tale that is a little brighter than those brooding Nolan films, and way better than last year's Zack Snyder atrocity. It's loaded with funny nods to the entire history of Batman, and fully functions as a standalone Bat story. May sequels abound!
(Writer's addendum: After mentioning Adam West above, I was reminded that West and Burt Ward revisited Batman and Robin last year, voicing the characters in Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders. I watched it, and it's not as good as LEGO Batman, but still pretty cool!)

Blu-Ray Review: 'Kubo and the Two Strings' Is One of the Year's Best Animated Films
From the makers of ParaNorman and Coraline comes Kubo and the Two Strings, another stop-motion wonder that's a fantastically fun combination of puppetry and CGI. It's the best animated film I've seen so far this year.
The title character is a young boy (an amazingly expressive creation voiced by Art Parkinson) who must go on a quest to deal with a nasty family war that has claimed the lives of his parents. He searches for a suit of armor needed to combat his evil granddad (Ralph Fiennes … of course). He's assisted on his quest by a monkey (Charlize Theron) and a beetle (Matthew McConaughey, in his first animated film).
The visuals are constantly breathtaking; the writing is often very clever and funny; and the message is sweet and enduring. As with some of the Laika studio's past creations, some sequences might be too much for the young ones, but it's nothing the average 8-year-old can't handle.
Special Features: They include an audio commentary from the director, and a solid making-of doc.

A Romp That's a Relief: The Coens' Delayed 'Hail, Caesar!' Is a Hilarious Homage
So Hail, Caesar! is a film with virtually no plot, but it gives Joel and Ethan Coen a chance to adapt the styles of films from the '40s and '50s into their weirdo universe?
Hell yeah. Sign me up!
The Coen brothers bring a blast of creativity to early 2016 with a movie that, frankly, had a lot of their fans (including myself) a little worried. Its release was moved out of the 2015 award season and dumped into February—usually a cinematic graveyard. It wasn't screened for critics until a couple of days before its release, a tactic usually reserved for the likes of Deuce Bigalow and Transformers movies, not the Coens.
In truth, this movie probably will score the highest with diehard Coen fans—those who react with glee to the notion that it takes place at a studio called Capitol Pictures. That's the same fictional place where Coen creation Barton Fink suffered writers' block all the way back in 1991.
While there are obviously nods to Barton Fink, the film Hail, Caesar! feels most like from the Coen collection is The Hudsucker Proxy, another period piece that featured fast-talking caricatures, unabashed silliness and astonishing period detail. Like Hudsucker, Hail, Caesar! features a bunch of great performers playing with great writer-directors in a movie that looks great.
It follows a day in the life of Eddie Mannix (Josh Brolin), a studio enforcer at Capitol Pictures tasked with keeping stars out of trouble and assuring moving pictures stay on schedule. In the middle of filming a biblical epic, huge star Baird Whitlock (George Clooney) is kidnapped by Hollywood communists, who demand $100,000 in ransom money.
Mannix must figure out how to get his star back while dodging two gossip columnists (both played by Tilda Swinton, in increasingly hilarious wardrobes), navigating the latest scandal of studio star DeeAnna Moran (Scarlett Johansson) and comforting director Laurence Laurentz (Ralph Fiennes), who has had a marble-mouthed stunt actor named Hobie Doyle (Alden Ehrenreich) forced into his romantic comedy.
The plot is paper-thin, but it does give the Coens a chance to do their quick interpretations of old-timey movie Westerns, screwball comedies, Esther Williams-style pool epics, overblown Bible movies, Gene Kelly-type musicals and more. The film includes of short homages to all of these cinema genres, and each one of them is a total blast. The movie features communist writers in a manner far less serious than the recent Trumbo.
The Coens have a way with making minor moments so grandiose. While Hobie Doyle waits for a date, he opts to play with his lasso in a way that reminded me of the kid in Hudsucker sampling a hula hoop. Fiennes and Ehrenreich have an exchange over a simple movie line that is easily one of the funniest things the Coens have ever put to screen. A close second is a moment involving a scarf and Coen staple Frances McDormand. And if you don't laugh when Clooney's Whitlock beholds the Christ, well, there's something wrong with you.
In a show-stopping homage, Channing Tatum does career-best work in an On the Town-like bar sequence that has him dancing and singing up a storm. It's at once gloriously perfect and seriously demented—the kind of thing only the Coens could pull off.
I wish the Coens had a lot more time on their hands, because it would be a delight to see the further adventures of Mannix, Hobie Doyle and DeeAnna Moran. They each deserve their own movie. Hail, Caesar! gives total silliness a grand treatment, and reminds us that nobody does silly better than the Coens.

Bummer of a Bond: Despite Some Excellent Action, 'Spectre' Is a Drag
The Daniel Craig-led James Bond movies have represented the franchise's high point.
The films starring Craig have included a little thing called "genuine emotion." The series peaked with 2012's Skyfall, directed by Sam Mendes and featuring Javier Bardem as a classic Bond villain.
Mendes has returned for the latest installment, and this time out, the action is amped up. Spectre has some terrific set pieces, including a dizzying helicopter sequence to open things up, as well as a nasty fight on a train. That's what's good about the movie.
What's bad? Regrettably, a good chunk of it is bad. After the full experience that was Skyfall, Spectre feels incomplete and shallow.
During a layover in Italy, Bond finds out a few hard truths about his origins, and that much of the pain he's gone through in his last few chapters is attributable to one man. Christoph Waltz shows up (barely) as Oberhauser, a past acquaintance of Bond who is now leading a dark society called Spectre—responsible for terrorist attacks worldwide.
Of course, Bond will get a girl along the way. This time out, it's Madeleine Swann, played by Léa Seydoux of Blue Is the Warmest Color. Not only does she fall for Bond; she falls for Bond in a way that kind of makes her look like an idiot.
Throughout the film, there's a sense that Craig is getting a little tired of the Bond shtick. He just doesn't seem fully committed at this point. Also—and this is a rather strange observation, but I'm going to just put it out there—he looks totally gross when he's kissing women. I'm going to go ahead and call him the worst Bond kisser ever. (Yes, worse than Roger Moore!) He looks like he's out to eat somebody's face. Seydoux probably had to check for her lower lip after takes.
Waltz is fun in his few scenes, but saying his villain is underdeveloped would be an understatement. He barely gets a chance to register. Ralph Fiennes returns as M, and his portion of the story—regarding the Secret Intelligence Service being in danger of getting shut down—is actually interesting. It's a bad thing when the subplot is more interesting than what Bond is actually doing.
At 148 minutes long, with a price tag in the $250 million range, Spectre suffers from some serious bloat. For all of that money, couldn't the art department come up with a better-looking staged photo of Bond during his youth? This movie has one of those photos in which young pictures of the actual actors are Photoshopped together to make it look like the characters co-existed in a past moment. The staged photo looks like somebody used scissors and Scotch tape.
I have no complaints about the action sequences. Dave Bautista shows up as a Spectre goon named Hinx; he's the one who dukes it out with Bond on the train. He makes for a good Bond monster. In addition to the aforementioned excellent action sequences, the film includes a building collapse in which Bond narrowly escapes. It's good stuff.
It's the emotional stuff that drags the movie down. Yes, it was welcomed in Skyfall, but this film feels like it is trying too hard. There are certain things we don't need to know about James Bond and his past. The past the film paints is completely unnecessary.
Craig is under contract for one more picture, but something feels final about Spectre. If he should return for another go, somebody needs to find a way for Bond to have fun again—because Spectre is a drag.

Blu-Ray Review: 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' Stands as One of Wes Anderson's Best
Writer-director Wes Anderson does it again with The Grand Budapest Hotel, another unique, beautiful and quirky movie that could've only been made by him. The man has never made a bad movie—and this one stands as one of his best.
In a performance that must be remembered come awards time, Ralph Fiennes is magically hilarious as M. Gustave, the concierge at the fictional hotel named in the film's title. Gustave has a penchant for older women—much older women—and his life takes a drastic turn when he is suspected in the murder of an elderly lover (Tilda Swinton in heavy makeup).
Stolen art, scary train rides and a high-speed chase on skis ensue, with Anderson even employing stop-motion animation at times, as he did with Fantastic Mr. Fox. The movie is often laugh-out-loud funny, largely thanks to Fiennes, who nails every piece of dialogue. His is the best performance by any actor so far in 2014.
Supporting performances by Jeff Goldblum, Adrien Brody, Jude Law, F. Murray Abraham, Willem Dafoe, Harvey Keitel, Saoirse Ronan and many others make this a-can't miss film.
This is a remarkable, tremendously enjoyable achievement, and will stand as one of the year's best films.
Special Features: Anderson films often get a rushed home-video release, which is later followed by a more-extensive package from the Criterion Collection. That seems to be the case here: This one features a couple of behind-the-scenes featurettes, and little else.
Bring on the Quirky: Wes Anderson's 'Budapest Hotel' Is a Joyous Achievement
Writer-director Wes Anderson does it again with The Grand Budapest Hotel, another wholly unique, beautiful, quirky movie that could've only been made by him.
In a performance that must be remembered come awards time, Ralph Fiennes is magically hilarious as M. Gustave, the concierge at the fictional hotel named in the film's title. Gustave has a penchant for older women—much older women—and his life takes a drastic turn when he is suspected in the murder of an elderly lover (Tilda Swinton in super-heavy makeup). Stolen art, scary train rides and a high-speed chase on skis ensue, with Anderson even employing stop-motion animation at times, as he did with Fantastic Mr. Fox.
Supporting performances by Jeff Goldblum, Adrien Brody, Jude Law, F. Murray Abraham, Willem Dafoe, Harvey Keitel, Saoirse Ronan and many others make this a can't-miss film.
There's something so joyous and fun about the way Anderson makes movies. This is a remarkable, tremendous enjoyable achievement.
The Grand Budapest Hotel is playing at the Regal Rancho Mirage Stadium 16 (72777 Dinah Shore Drive, Rancho Mirage; 760-770-1615); the Regal Palm Springs Stadium 9 (789 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs; 760-323-4466); and the Century Theatres at The River (71800 Highway 111, Rancho Mirage; 760-836-1940).
Great Expectations Fulfilled: Ralph Fiennes, Felicity Jones Shine in 'The Invisible Woman'
There was a time when The Invisible Woman—a movie that takes a speculative look at an affair Charles Dickens had toward the end of his life—would've had "Oscar" written all over it.
Ralph Fiennes directs himself as Dickens, and he presents the author as the John Lennon or Elvis Presley of his day. (Dickens was indeed a literary rock star, and one of the first to deal with print-media scrutiny and hordes of fans when he tried to take a walk or go to the theater.) The married Dickens also created quite a bit of controversy by having an affair with a young actress named Nelly (played here by Felicity Jones), whose full name was Ellen Ternan.
Jones, the stunning actress who broke through with an amazing performance in Like Crazy, is this film's best asset. As Nelly—an aspiring actress with questionable talent who displayed big fan crush on Dickens—Jones brings a smoldering sophistication to her role, and goes toe-to-toe with Fiennes in many scenes.
Much of what happens in this movie is based on true events, including the 1865 Staplehurst rail car crash that many blamed for Dickens' subsequent health woes and decrease in writing output.
This is the second directorial effort for Fiennes after 2011's very good Coriolanus. He's a director to be reckoned with; he has a crafty touch with sensitive subjects.
The Invisible Woman is now playing at the Camelot Theatres (2300 E. Baristo Road, Palm Springs; 760-325-6565), and the Century Theatres at The River (71800 Highway 111, Rancho Mirage; 760-836-1940).

Haywire  is a 1977 memoir by actress and writer Brooke Hayward (born 1937), daughter of theatrical agent and producer Leland Hayward and actress Margaret Sullavan. It is a #1 New York Times Best Seller and was on the newspaper's list for 17 weeks. In Haywire, Brooke details her experience of growing up immersed in the glamorous and extravagant lifestyle afforded by her parents' successful Hollywood and Broadway careers and tells the story of how her privileged, beautiful family and their seemingly idyllic life fell apart.

Important characters

Leland Hayward – Brooke's father, who was a charismatic person and prominent theatrical agent and stage, film, and television producer "who taught Fred Astaire how to dress and whom Katharine Hepburn called 'the most wonderful man in the world'–even after he ended their romance," who "thrived on the glamorous Hollywood scene." His clients included Fred Astaire, Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda, Ernest Hemingway, Judy Garland, Ginger Rogers, Billy Wilder, Gene Kelly, Myrna Loy, Herman Mankiewicz, Gene Fowler, Gregory Peck, William Wyler, Fredric March, Boris Karloff, Lillian Hellman, Helen Hayes, Dashiell Hammett, Greta Garbo, and Katharine Hepburn. He was a Tony Award-winning Broadway producer of Call Me Madam, South Pacific, Gypsy, The Sound of Music, and  Mister Roberts, among others. After his marriage to Margaret Sullavan (another client) ended in 1948, and he later married Nancy "Slim" Hawks (later Lady Keith), and Pamela Digby Churchill (later Harriman).

Margaret Sullavan – Brooke's mother, who was both a Hollywood and a Broadway star, by all accounts a superb actress, and known for her husky voice and "irresistible crooked grin."  She performed with the University Players at Harvard, made her Broadway debut in 1926, and starred in 16 films including the classics Only Yesterday (1933), The Shop Around the Corner (1940), and Back Street (1941). Before Leland Hayward, she was married to actor Henry Fonda and director William Wyler. According to Brooke, she loathed Hollywood, was fanatical about her privacy, and was determined to bring up her children properly in a perfect, beautiful home.  Her death at age 50 (in 1960) by barbiturate poisoning was ruled an accident.

Brooke Hayward – Brooke, who appeared on the cover of Life magazine when she was 15, became a model and actress before she wrote Haywire. Her film and television credits include Mad Dog Coll, the Twilight Zone episode "The Masks," and Six Degrees of Separation. She has been married to Michael Thomas, Dennis Hopper, and Peter Duchin, and now lives in Connecticut and New York.

Bridget Hayward – Brooke's younger sister. She was in and out of mental institutions in her teens, and worked at the Williamstown Theatre as an apprentice. She "succumbed to a recurrent, unexplained illness marked by epileptic seizures and bouts of severe depression" and her death at age 21 is considered to be a suicide.

William (Bill) Hayward – Brooke's younger brother. He, too, was in and out of mental institutions such as the Menninger Foundation. He produced Easy Rider in partnership with Peter Fonda and loved motorcycles for the rest of his life. He shot himself in the heart in 2008.

Contributors
Throughout Haywire, Hayward uses snippets of oral history from interviews she conducted with people who knew her immediate family members (several of whom were "family friends") to provide outside perspectives on what they were like and on how the family operated. These contributors include:
James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart)
Henry Fonda
Jane Fonda
Peter Fonda
Truman Capote
Sara Mankiewicz – wife of Herman J. Mankiewicz
Tom Mankiewicz
Paul Osborn
Millicent Osborn – wife of Paul Osborn
John Swope
H. C. Potter (Hank Potter)
Joseph Cotten (Joe Cotten)
Joshua Logan (Josh Logan)
William Wyler
Diana Vreeland
King Vidor – Margaret's director on So Red the Rose
Nancy ("Slim" Hayward) Keith – Leland Hayward's wife after Sullavan
Bill Francisco – Bridget Hayward's boyfriend at the time of her death
Edward H. Griffith (E. B. Griffiths) – Margaret's director on Next Time We Love

Although their contributions (of "time, memories, and love") are not marked as quotes in the text, Hayward acknowledges:

Billy Wilder
Fredric and Florence March
Peter Hunt
Charles and Ray Eames
George Cukor
Jules Stein
Swifty Lazar
George Axelrod
Bill and Greta Wright
Kenneth Wagg – Margaret Sullavan's husband at the time of her death
Martha Edens
Kathleen Malley

Introduction and epilogue
The 2011 paperback edition includes an introduction by Hayward's family and friend Buck Henry – actor, director, and Oscar-nominated screenwriter (The Graduate) – and an epilogue by the author, both of which are dated May 2010. Henry introduces Leland and his "crazy kids," while Hayward's epilogue discusses the years since Haywire was first published, thanks Henry for urging her to finish writing it, and, most notably, covers her brother William's death (he shot himself in the heart in 2008). The "epilogue is remarkable for its uninflected tone. She offers nothing remotely consoling about redemption or overcoming adversity. And that is one of the most bracing and strangely affirming aspects of this book."

Reception
Within a month of its publication, Haywire was "heading for what appears to be a huge commercial success." It became a #1 New York Times Best Seller and was on the list for 17 weeks.  The New York Times Book Review described it as "a Hollywood childhood memoir, a glowing tapestry spun with equal parts of gold and pain. As a book it is an absolute beauty – a Hollywood beauty, to be precise – with all the charm that term implies, the deceptive simplicity, the complex hidden machinery and, above all, the terrible cost." Critics commented that the book, although published when Brooke was 39, deals mostly with her life up to her early 20s and is mostly silent on her personal tragedies (the most evident of which were her failed marriages) that occurred in the intervening years. The later epilogue addresses this issue, albeit briefly.

Another New York Times reviewer wrote that one of Haywire's themes contributed to a 1970s trend: "'Survival,' as opposed to action and creativity, seems to be the dominant motif in much of 70's popular culture, especially in some books...Brooke Hayward's childhood, described in Haywire, has been discussed as if it had been the domestic equivalent of an Iranian torture chamber."

Movie
Haywire inspired a Warner Bros. TV movie by the same name. First aired in 1980, it was directed by Michael Tuchner and starred Lee Remick, Jason Robards, and Deborah Raffin. The film was produced by Brooke's younger brother, Bill Hayward. A New York Times TV writer made note of its non-chronological "ambitious time scheme" and called it "an exceptionally fine-tuned television drama."

Concealed Weapons Carry Law
Wisconsin's new concealed weapons carry law went into effect on November 1, 2011. The law allows Wisconsin residents who qualify for and obtain a license from the Wisconsin Department of Justice to carry a concealed weapon (handgun, electronic weapon, knife, or billy club) anywhere in the state where the carrying of a concealed weapon is not prohibited or restricted. The law allows non-license holders to transport a loaded and uncased weapon in a motor vehicle, all terrain vehicle, or boat. The law allows some out-of-state concealed carry license or permit holders to carry a concealed weapon in Wisconsin. Presently, permit holders from 25 states, including Minnesota, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands can concealed carry in Wisconsin.
The Police Department does not process applications for licenses. We do not issue licenses. By law, only the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) can process applications and issue licenses. The Attorney General has stated the DOJ's website is the best source for official concealed carry law information and updates. There is a link to the concealed carry law page on the home page.
You can read the latest DOJ concealed carry law fact sheet (PDF) and download a license application (PDF) on this site. Go to the Police Department "Forms" page and browse the fact sheet or application links. You must have a portable document file (PDF) reader on your computer to access this information.
City Owned Buildings
The City of Prescott does not allow concealed weapons in city-owned buildings. Violators are subject to a forfeiture.

Annals of Time Lost (She Knows, she knows, she knows)
Rafman, Jon
Annals of Time Lost (She Knows, she knows, she knows) —
This artwork was developed alongside a larger project exploring the theme of the contingency and intrinsic mutability of history. It combines an image patent for an obsolete entertainment system and a painting of a rhinoceros brought to Venice in the mid-eighteenth century for a carnival. It was only the fifth recorded time that a rhinoceros had been brought to Europe since Roman times.
Through mixing, reframing, and estranging images from their conventional presentations, the work forges new relationships among different historical and cultural references. While directing attention toward the potential of the virtual archive to unveil alternative ways of constructing and preserving our collective and personal histories, the piece also functions much like a palimpsest, opening up a compelling inter-textual space between disparate cultural layers.
Jon Rafman (1981) is an artist, filmmaker, and essayist. He holds a BA in philosophy and literature from McGill University and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His films and artworks have gained international attention and have been exhibited at Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome, the Saatchi Gallery in London, and the New Museum in New York City. Rafman's work has been featured in Modern Painter, Frieze, Artforum, the New York Times, and Harper's Magazine. His work examines the effects of technology on the individual, social relations, and contemporary culture at large, with a recent emphasis on online exploration and the digital archive.

1. Must See Dublin in a Day
This experience is essential to anyone who is serious about exploring the best of Dublin like a local! When you book this experience, you will be contacted within 24-hours with questions about your preferences and interests. A like-minded and vetted local host who knows the city intimately and shares your interests will be handpicked and assigned to you. You'll be paired with guides that are passionate about the place they call home and who choose to spend their free time sharing it with like-minded travelers matched to them. Based on the things that you would like to see and do a personalized itinerary will be built just for you. During the exploration, if you feel like changing direction, or if your local host believes that you'd enjoy a sight or different experience, they will suggest and discuss with you changes to the itinerary to make your visit even more enjoyable. Let your private local host show you the side Dublin that you will love!

During the walking tour, you will have the option of taking public transportation or a taxi to get around the city. Please mention in your booking if you'd like a private car included in the tour.
3. Dublin: Private Pub Crawl Tour
Dublin is where pubs are born. Some do not survive, many leave the Irish shore, but few age as gracefully as the stable pubs that bestow so much character on Dublin. Avoid the tourist traps and fake 'Irish' pubs, and escape with the locals to learn how to savor a pint of Guinness on this pub crawl. Find out how to ensure you always get a great pint and why it's important. Follow in the footsteps of the Irish literary giants like Patrick Kavanagh, Flann O'Brien, and Brendan Behan. If Dublin has hidden gems, they're the pubs that don't advertise to tourists. The locals. The authentic Irish pub where the conversation is flowing faster than the beer, where the character of the pub is as fascinating as the characters in it, where literature, society, and history eternally live. The best time to start is 7 PM, assuming you've eaten dinner prior to the tour. Bring a pen — you never know what these aged walls will murmur to your thoughts.
4. Dublin: Personalized Private Tour with a Local Host

Experiences can range from the sharing of advice over a coffee, to the discovery of a small neighborhood, or the exploration of Dublin as a whole.

You'll be paired with guides that are passionate about the place they call home and who choose to spend their free time sharing it with like-minded travelers matched to them. The local supplier will arrange a meeting point and time with your host in the most convenient place for you. During the exploration, if you feel like changing direction, or if your local host believes that you'd enjoy a sight or different experience, he/she will suggest and discuss with you changes to the itinerary. Enjoy discovering amazing spots in Dublin that you don't know about and are difficult to find in any guidebook or on the Internet as they are lesser-known to the crowd but loved by locals. The day will revolve around your wishes so enjoy your private tour and let your local show you the Dublin you will love.
5. Dublin: 2.5-Hour Fabulous Food Tasting Trail
Take a gentle 2.5-3-hour stroll through Dublin and visit 6-7 independently-owned gastronomic gems with a local guide. Savor a tasting using the best of Irish produce at each place, and meet the purveyors or makers. As you walk through the city's small, local neighborhoods, relish a range of tastings that reflect the current food scene. Sample new and contemporary tastes, as well as established traditional fare. As you enjoy the food, you'll also learn a little about the culture and history of this lively and charming city.
7. Dublin: Private Distillery Trail with Irish Whiskey Tasting
Start your day with a step back in time at James Fox Cigar and Whiskey Store, a leading merchant of fine Cuban cigars, premium Irish whiskey, smoking pipes and select spirits since 1881. Then relax as you travel to the Liberties neighborhood of Dublin to the Dublin Liberties Distillery set in a 300-year-old building. Enjoy a short walk around the block to Teeling Whiskey Distillery for a tour of the distillery floor and then onto the bar to try their Small Batch Teeling Whiskey and Single Pot Still, the first whiskey to be made in Dublin since 1976. Onto Pearse Lyons Distillery next, set in St. James' Church which dates back to the 12th century. The tour includes a walk around the graveyard next to the church and a tasting of Pearse Lyons whiskeys and gin. Finish up your tour with drop-off at the door of your hotel in Dublin city.
8. Wicklow: Private Day Tour from Dublin
Start with a pick-up at your chosen location and drive south into County Wicklow from Dublin. Your qualified guide will share many stories and local folklore about the places you will visit. Tailor the tour to your liking and decide to visit the Powerscourt House Gardens in Enniskerry. Explore the gardens at your own pace and then relax over a coffee looking out towards the Wicklow countryside and sugar loaf hill. You can also do some shopping at the Avoca craft shop. Afterward, drive through the Wicklow Mountains National park with some scenic stops along the way. Such as the Lough Brays, Luggala, the Guinness family Estate, and the P.S. I Love you bridge. Actually many films and TV series were made in this national park such as "The Vikings", "P.S. I Love You", "Leap Year" and today they are filming Enchanted II. Enjoy some lunch in an Irish Pub near Glendalough. Taste some lovely fresh Wicklow produce. Explore Glendalough and the 6th-century monastic site of St Kevin. Enjoy a walk in this wonderful scenic valley with its two lakes and a mixture of deciduous woodland. If there is anything else you would like to do, your guide is with you and would be happy to help arrange this.
9. Dublin: Private City Tour in German
Discover Dublin in a number of ways with an individual and private sightseeing tour (only available in German). Get a personalized tour tailor-made to your wishes and interests like history, Irish literature, architecture or the more macabre aspects of Dublin. Experience a relaxed walk through the city center, the Docklands, Dun Laoghaire, Howth and many more. You decide when you want to start and where you want to meet your guide. Learn interesting facts through fascinating stories with lots of humor. Pass by Trinity College, the oldest university in Ireland. You may visit the campus independently after the tour since, until further notice, Trinity is closed due to the COVID-19 virus.
10. Dublin: Guided Sights and Pints Tour
Following Irish Independence, a few men sat down and thought about what they would do with Dublin. Following much intense discussion and with the preservation of the British and Irish cultures in mind, it was born into the city it is today. Since then, Dublin has become a symbol of reconciling Ireland's British past with its Irish future. The British Trinity College (with its Protestant legacy) has produced Oscar Wilde and Jonathan Swift, and Dublin's pubs have produced writers from the Irish tradition, such as Patrick Kavanagh and Brendan Behan. This tour is, therefore, a tribute to Dublin's dual personality, and the pub door will be the boundary between the two worlds. Get comfortable in a few warm pubs throughout the tour where you will discuss important aspects of history, including Irish origins, the Irish language, and the Celtic Tiger. With this in mind, you will pop into a great pub every 20-40 minutes. Besides the history lessons, you'll learn about beer and the Irish pub, and will also partake in/witness an activity that the Irish are renowned for, conversation.

Talented, knowledgeable Fiona Dalton, in her character, flexible, enthusiastic and refreshing. I learned more about Dublin ( and reasons to come back and see more semi hidden treasures) than I learned in my last four trips here. Fiona is a certifiably professional singer and actress overflowing with ideas and passion for her work. We almost didn't notice the rain. I highly recommend especially early in a trip because it would shape the whole outlook on what to see.

Far-infrared (FIR) sauna therapy can be an important part of any ongoing detoxification program. Since cellulite is a condition of toxic waste, Slim and Detox Body Wraps offers it as an add-on to accelerate the results of your body wrap. Slim and Detox Body Wraps offers transdermal body wraps. This means that the natural products applied to the problem areas work by entering the body through the skin. Use of far-infrared therapy prior to a body wrap will open the pores and accelerate the results of the body wrap products. The products will penetrate more deeply than with just dry skin brushing.
Far-infrared heat is radiant heat. This is the same type of heat you feel from the sun on a warm, sunny day. It is not visible and it is not ultraviolet. Unlike a traditional sauna which heats the body with air or steam, far-infrared sauna heats from the inside out, not the outside in. Far-infrared heat raises the core body temperature faster than either traditional sauna or exercise. It also produces a deeper sweat (2-3 times greater) and uses less energy than either traditional sauna or exercise.
One reason far-infrared sauna therapy has so many benefits is because of its ability to deeply penetrate (1" to 2 ½") the dermal layer of the skin. Because of the wavelength of the infrared, it pulls toxins out of the cells. Circulation is improved because it expands and dilates the peripheral blood vessels. As a result, it delivers oxygen-rich blood throughout the body.
In addition, since cellulite is a condition of toxic waste, detoxification can reduce cellulite when incorporated into a healthy lifestyle. The profuse sweat produced by far-infrared sauna therapy accelerates the purging of toxins from the body, enhancing the impact of the body wrap.
We use the Sunlighten Solo System which is comprised of a Solo Pad and dual Solocarbon domes. The Solopad is a 3″ memory foam pad covered in waterproof material. We place a towel and sheet on top of the pad before the client lies down in their underwear. The double domes collapse for easy entrance and exit. We then slide the larger dome above the torso and the client enjoys 25 minutes of soothing infrared heat.

Waymo's self-driving vehicles will return to California streets in June
They'll reportedly be delivering packages for a pair of local non-profits.
By Adam Rosenberg on May 30, 2020

Waymo is ready to get back to the business of being on the streets of California.
The Alphabet-owned company shut down a public testing program for its self-driving minivans and other vehicles in early March, as the global pandemic started to reshape society in the United States. Now that fleet will reportedly return to the streets of San Francisco on June 8.
That revelation comes from a company email(Opens in a new window) obtained by The Verge, which reported the news on Saturday. The self-driving fleet will apparently be running deliveries for a pair of non-profits: Wendy McNaughton's #DrawTogether(Opens in a new window), which sets local kids up with art kits; and Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired(Opens in a new window).
Waymo confirmed the imminent return to San Francisco in a statement provided to Mashable on Monday.
"Back in March, we decided to suspend our driving operations in response to COVID-19 to ensure the safety of everyone involved in our services and local communities. After careful consideration and active conversations with our teams, partners, and local and state authorities, we've begun over the last several weeks to resume our driving operations in Phoenix. Soon San Franciscans will also begin to see some Waymo vehicles back on the road, and we're proud to provide charitable delivery support to community partners. The health and safety of our team is our number one priority as we begin to drive again in San Francisco."
Deliveries are nothing new for Waymo's autonomous vehicle fleet. The company partnered with UPS back in January, putting the self-driving cabs to work on bringing UPS packages to their final destinations. In an unexpected twist, other companies discovered months later that putting vehicles to work on deliveries allowed them to get around pandemic-imposed bans on non-essential workers.
That's not the route Waymo went with, but even after the company paused testing it kept working behind the scenes. The company put virtual versions of its vehicles to work in testing simulations that had them running 20 millions miles each day.
Live tests have already returned to the streets of Phoenix, Ariz., and it appears that California is next. But the reported June 8 return-to-service is framed as package deliveries in partnership with a pair of non-profits.

There's certainly something to the idea of trusting a non-human driver that can't possibly be infected with a contagious illness. How to keep the cars sanitized when multiple riders are cycling in and out each day is an open question, though. What's more, since this is a testing program for an unproven product, autonomous Waymo vehicles still employ a backup driver.
UPDATE: June 1, 2020, 8:21 a.m. EDT Added a statement from Waymo.

"That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me," I responded. Then I credited my bewitching scent to the ineffective ventilation system, and the nightly special, in Alqueria.
I hope this review persuades Alqueria to address its ventilation issue because the University District establishment, whose name means "farmhouse" in Spanish, is one of my favorite new restaurants. In fact, I like most everything else about the sophisticated-yet-casual place.
Its inviting interior, which is nicely lit and frequently bustling, features white brick and stucco walls offset by handsome wood. Plants — some sprouting from wine crates — plus local art, a cookbook-stuffed bookcase and other tasteful appointments that include decorative farm implements, lend the space an air of rusticity that avoids hokey-ness.
I like Alqueria's helpful, attentive service, too. Its moderate-size wine list, which offers food-friendly $6 single pours, is fairly nice, as well.
Cocktail fans will be rewarded with thoughtfully created and lively, though sometimes small, libations. Fruity notes amplify the allure of the two-toned Brains & Brawn ($12) — Oloroso sherry, Amaro Nonino and a tempranillo floater all gently sweetened by Carpano Antica vermouth. Fruity and floral tones soften the boozy yet easy-to-sip A World's Fair ($12), made with Michter's rye, Amaro Pasubio, Zaya aged rum and more.
Alqueria's sensibly sized, January-released menu is a something-for-everyone collection of generally hearty dishes. Most importantly, the cooking is overall quite strong, which isn't surprising if you know that Alqueria's chef-owners — Jacob Hough and Patrick Marker — were longtime chefs at Barcelona Restaurant.
With its relatively light-and-fluffy texture, vivid colors and contrasting diced pickled vegetables, the garlicky Green Hummus ($7), served with puffy toasted pita dusted with Moroccan-style ras el hanout, transcends the usual chickpea dip. The substantial and dynamic fried Brussels Sprouts ($11), with smoked Moody Blue cheese, an apricot gastrique, candied fruit and crisp nuts, similarly breathes life into a ubiquitous appetizer.
The Buttermilk Fried Chicken ($20) is another currently popular dish given a welcome lift by a crunchy dark crust; tender juicy meat; vinegar-brightened, Buffalo-esque "pepper honey" sauce; and sides of tangy, grits-riffing pureed potatoes, plus multicolored roasted heirloom carrots.
More Southern comfort, and roasted carrots, arrive with the Crispy Braised Pork Shank ($25): a whopping hunk of fall-off-the-bone meat with a crinkly, flash-fried exterior plopped atop excellent cheese grits and partnered with tender and righteous, vinegar-and-meat-accented greens. A zippy and irresistible, ketchup-forward barbecue sauce spiked with gochujang gives the swine a trendy Korean twist.
Farro ($18) is another of Alqueria's interesting and delicious vegetarian preparations whose bold flavors belie its simple name. Seasoned, skillfully roasted squashes and root veggies, shiitakes, translucent onions, Manchego cheese, rosemary and a flavorful broth contribute to the fun.
A pool of salsa-verde-like "green sofrito broth" brings Latin flair to the flawlessly cooked Pan Roasted Walleye ($26), served with plump, pan-crisped gnocchi and pickled mushrooms. Sure, I wish my filet had been bigger and the room-temperature broth had been nearly as warm as the hot fish, but it's still a very successful dish.
And that's the bottom line here. Because even though a couple of carrots were slightly undercooked one night, and the potato puree was maybe a tad overworked once, and I expected the moist, orange-scented Tres Leches cake ($7) to be milkier, everything I sampled at Alqueria was so good-looking and good-tasting that I'm eager to return. In fact, I'd like to go back and try that lamb special I missed out on. I just don't want to be wearing its aroma as my cologne.

We are a collective of nature lovers, motivated to promote rich and meaningful experiences in Portugal's natural spots.
Our mission is to nurture and encourage a long-lasting, conscious and valuable relationship between people and nature.
Through this meaningful bond, we aim to promote personal and collective well-being and also to support the appreciation and conservation of the natural world and its protected areas.
We aspire to be an important agent in the "Portuguese green revolution", inspiring people to connect more and more with nature.
We also look forward to being recognized as a reliable and central figure in the sustainability scene in Portugal.
Studies show that exposure to natural environments tends to improve our mental well-being. Anxiety and depression have become a global epidemic and this approach emerges as a valuable tool for interaction with the natural areas, which have so much potential to favor our mental clarity.
It is the ability to bring one's own attention and focus onto the experiences of the present moment, through certain practices and techniques, as meditation, for example. In an ever more fast paced world, it should be an essential and vital part of our lives, promoting overall a greater well-being and perceived health.
It is described as "responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of the local people, and involves interpretation and education". It's a sustainable way of travelling that benefits all involved parts – tourists, local communities and nature.
Because in order to care about something we first have to know it and understand it, we always promote the interpretation of the places we visit. Through an ecological approach our team biologists provide information about the fauna and flora while raising awareness for conservation issues.

Fatty food ads set for TfL ban
Adverts for fatty foods ranging from guacamole to quiche could fall foul of Transport for London's new rules starting next week.
"Unhealthy" food adverts are being axed at Tube stations and bus stops from Monday as part of a policy by the Mayor of London to tackle soaring rates of childhood obesity. The ban is backed by celebrity chefs Jamie Oliver and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.
According to official guidance published on TfL's website, foods targeted include breakfast cereals, yoghurts, cakes, juices, sausages, pies, coleslaw, pizza, cooking sauces and bread with additions such as olives.
TfL is using a nutrient profiling model created by Public Health England. Foods are given a score based on the balance between beneficial nutrients and ingredients which children should reduce in their diet, such as sugars, saturated fat and salt.
McDonald's has confirmed it will continue to advertise on the TfL network under the new rules. Some adverts for unhealthy food will remain on the network after Monday if they booked a space for a long period.
However, City Hall said work is continuing to remove them "as soon as possible", with all future bookings already subject to the new policy.
From Monday new adverts for products which are high in fat, salt and sugar will not be accepted. Advertisers can apply for an exception by arguing they do not target children.
After the Evening Standard contacted City Hall for comment on the full list of items on TfL's website, officers added an extra clause into the official guidance document, saying: "This list should not be read as a list of banned products", while a City Hall spokesman stressed a "common sense" approach will be taken with each new advert application.
The ban has stirred a row at City Hall with the Conservative opposition hailing it a "cheap PR stunt" that will cost TfL £13 million a year in lost revenue.
Tory Assembly member Andrew Boff said: "It beggars belief that Sadiq Khan's answer to childhood obesity is to ban the promotion of everyday foods across London's transport network.
"Does he really think that children are driven to gorging on junk food after seeing adverts for cereals, bread, salads and cooking sauces?" A spokesman for Mr Khan said: "Child obesity is a serious health problem in London and it's only right that we take bold steps to tackle it.
"The Mayor is confident these changes will not only reduce children's exposure to junk food advertising, but also empower Londoners to make healthier food choices for themselves and their families...
"He is clear this is not a silver bullet ... Government must also step up and do more to help tackle childhood obesity in London and across the country."

Democrat 2020 Presidential Candidate Gives Away Money to Push 'Universal Basic Income'

A Democrat 2020 presidential hopeful is trying to promote his plan for a "universal basic income" by giving away cold, hard cash to potential primary voters in Iowa and New Hampshire.
Andrew Yang, a New York City entrepreneur and longshot presidential candidate seeking the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, said he's giving away the money as a way to push universal basic income as part of his platform for his 2020 bid.
"It would help people improve their health, nutrition, pay off some debts and bills that have been hanging over them, reduce their stress levels," Yang told Fox News, branding his grandiose welfare plan as a "freedom dividend."
Yang said his proposal would direct the federal government to provide $12,000 a year to every American over the age of 18 and would be paid for by instituting a 10 percent value-added tax estimated to raise $700-800 billion.
The longshot Democratic presidential hopeful said he modeled his proposal after similar guaranteed income schemes tested in Finland and California. Researchers discovered Friday that Finland's basic income experiment failed to encourage those who were unemployed to look for work.
The Democratic presidential hopeful said he would give $1,000 of his own money each month to one family in Iowa and one family in New Hampshire to promote his plan.
Although his plan of giving money to potential voters could raise a few legal questions, Yang said he consulted with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) before forging ahead with his platform.

"I talked to the FEC and they said as long as it's my personal funds, and it's a personal gift with no strings attached, they have no issues," he said.
Yang's candidacy, although a longshot, echoes some of the proposals congressional Democrats like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) outlined in the "Green New Deal," such as guaranteed income or "economic security" for those Americans "unwilling to work."

Twenty feet from stardom, a million miles from sanity
'Filmworker' and the undying devotion of Leon Vitali
Michael J. Casey
Like most love stories, this one begins at the movies. London, 1971: A young actor goes to see the latest release, A Clockwork Orange, and is transfixed. The garish colors, the violence, the sex, the terror, Malcolm McDowell's theatrical performance; the young actor falls for it all. The credits roll: Produced and directed by Stanley Kubrick. The young actor turns to his friend and says, "I'm going to work for that man." His name is Leon Vitali, he is 23 years old, and his fate is sealed.
Four years later, Vitali auditioned for Kubrick's next film, Barry Lyndon, and was hired for the small, walk-on role of Lord Bullingdon. Giddy with excitement, Vitali prepared for the role with a level of devotion only Kubrick could have appreciated. It paid off. Kubrick continued to expand Lord Bullingdon's role, eventually making him one of the film's central characters, providing Vitali with the perfect launching pad for a long and illustrious career. But Vitali had little interest in working for anyone else, and when Kubrick called to see if Vitali wanted to help out behind the camera on his next picture, The Shining, Vitali walked away from his acting career and became Kubrick's right-hand man.
While many make art to be loved and recognized by millions, Vitali did everything to be loved and recognized by one man and one man only. That love forms the heart of Filmworker, a documentary-length interview with Vitali about his life-long relationship with Kubrick.
It is impossible to convey the breadth of Vitali's contributions in a 500-word column; he simply did whatever Kubrick asked. And he did it with a perfection befitting of an obsessive perfectionist. Though this was a severe drain on Vitali's physical and mental health, as well as his bank account — there seems to be some question as to how much Kubrick compensated Vitali — there is little bitterness or remorse in Vitali's voice. From The Shining to Kubrick's death in 1999, Vitali was there for every production meeting, every shot, every cut, every promotional photo and international dub. As Vitali says, "I'm at the service of him because he's at the service of his movie."
Vitali is still at it, day in and day out. Preserving, restoring and circulating Kubrick's films is a full-time profession, and if there is any resentment or hesitation in Vitali's mind about how he chose to spend his life, he hides it well. Filmworker's director, Tony Zierra, doesn't push this point, he simply lets Vitali and his two children, now adults, speak for themselves.
Zierra is in awe of Vitali, and with good reason. Anyone who watches a Kubrick film owes Vitali a debt of gratitude. Without Vitali's tireless efforts we would not have the prints in the condition they are, nor would we have the plethora of archival material to study. Vitali may have sacrificed himself for Kubrick, but we, the moviegoers, are the ones who reap the benefits.

ATG Article of the Week: Why You Should Start Binge-Reading Right Now
by Tom Gilson | May 9, 2019 | 0 comments
Article of the Week | Blog Posts
In this New York Times post, novelist Ben Dolnick has the audacity to advise everyone to "ditch Netflix" and picking up a book!
But he is saying more than that. Mr. Dolnick also has some fascinating observations and advice on how we should be doing the actual reading. But rather than telling you what he says in the article, it would be best to let you started reading it for yourself…
"One night a couple of summers ago, the power went out and, unable to watch Netflix or engage in my customary internet fugue, I lit a candle and picked up a thriller by Ruth Rendell. For the first time in as long as I could remember, my sole source of entertainment for an evening was going to be a book.
And yes, yes, just as you'd expect, it was wonderful, it was cozy, the internet is terrible. But what struck me more than the night's general delightfulness, was how much my experience of reading the book was influenced by the speed with which I was suddenly moving through it. To that point, I'd been reading the book the way I usually read books, which is to say in five- or 10-minute snatches before bed. And I'd been more or less enjoying it — watching Rendell's criminal protagonist get out of prison, following along as he searched for his victim — but I'd been enjoying it the way a person enjoys hors d'oeuvres at a cocktail party. Those cheese puffs are delicious; I just wish I could sit down with a plate of them. Now, by reading for an hour or two straight, I'd found my way into the caterer's tent. I could savor the particular tart flavor of the author's voice. I could admire the elegance of the trap she was setting for her doomed criminal.
Before my storm-induced Rendell marathon, I'd been reading the wrong way. John Gardner, the literary critic, wrote that the job of the novelist is to create a "vivid and continuous dream" for the reader, but I'd somehow developed a case of readerly sleep apnea. I'd gotten into the habit of consuming novels so fitfully that I was all but sealed off from their pleasures. It was as if I'd been watching movies in a special buffering-only mode, or listening to music through the world's balkiest Bluetooth headphones.
This style of reading had, I realized, shunted me into a vicious circle. I was reading less because I was enjoying it less, which made reading even less enjoyable, which inclined me to read even less…"

Training — What Should I Eat for Breakfast Before Long Runs?
One of the big mistakes that runners make is that they go into their long run workouts with empty fuel tanks. Just like a car needs gas, you need fuel to power your engine. When you've got nothing in the tank, you can feel tired, fatigued, and cranky from the first steps of your run.
Your pre-exercise meal plays an important function: it fuels primarily your brain. As you can imagine, when your brain doesn't have the fuel it needs, it will tell you that it's tired and needs to eat. And the brain can't store fuel like other muscles. The brain gets its fuel from the liver, which starts out the day mostly depleted of energy from sleeping. So it's critical that you eat in the morning before you run to help you feel sharper and more together during your run.
To underscore the importance of pre-workout (and race) eating, I'll point out that there have been studies on runners in which they are told to run until they are completely exhausted. When the runners have stopped, researchers found that it was typically their brains that were out of energy, not their muscles. The brain is a powerful organ, and when it says stop, you usually will stop.
So what should you be eating before your workouts?
Exercise is fueled primarily by carbohydrates. A light meal of both simple and complex carbohydrates lays a foundation for your morning workout.
Picking the particular foods for your breakfast will be a process of experimentation for you. Depending on your stomach, you'll need to find what works for you. And once you do find something that works, use that same formula on race day.
The size of your pre-workout breakfast will partially be determined by the intensity of your workout. If you're running slowly for a long period of time, you'll be able to eat more and digest the food more easily. If you're doing very intense exercise (such as a sprint triathlon or speed work on the track), it will be harder for you to digest foods, so you'll may want to try liquid meal options such as a fruit smoothie or a meal replacement drink.
A typical pre-workout meal for a long run (greater than an hour), should contain about 300-500 calories, depending on your weight.
Most runners should try to eat their breakfast at least an hour before running. This gives some of the food a chance to be digested prior to starting your run, which will give your brain some of the fuel that it needs to get going.
As a practical matter, get your breakfast assembled the night before a long run and eat as soon as you get up. Then, as you go about the rest of your morning routine (getting dressed, filling bottles, etc.), you'll be digesting your breakfast during that time.
If you eat a larger meal more than an hour and a half before your workout, you may want to consider another light snack 15-20 minutes before you start running. This could be half of an energy bar, a piece of fruit or some juice – something to keep your blood sugar up and get you ready to go.
Bottom line: make sure that you eat a small meal of 300-500 calories of carbohydrates one hour or more before you start your long workouts. This will give the energy foundation that you need to perform better and feel better throughout your morning.
If you'd like more information on this topic, there are many great books available. Two of my favorites are available at Amazon.com. These two books are by Nancy Clark, who is considered on the top sports nutritionists in the field. Her two books are Nancy Clark's Food Guide for Marathon Runners and Nancy Clark's Sports Nutrition Guidebook . The Food Guide for Marathoners is a short and concise book that sums up a great deal of good information. The Sports Nutrition Guidebook includes much more information and many great recipies.
Wow! You eat a lot when you run!
7 responses so far, want to say something?
Thanks for the article. Agreed.
Lately I have successfully enjoyed two servings of Greek yogurt for breakfast, at least one hour before my long runs or marathons. Greek yogurt is non-fat, and has a much higher ratio of protein to carbohydrate than conventional yogurt – which prevents an insulin spike triggered by a largely carbohydrate-based breakfast that adversely affects the liver's ability to produce glucose.
I love how you mention the brain being an important organ in the running process as well. I don't think a lot of people consider their brain being an important asset to a workout (physically). Mentally, of course your thoughts are what could make or break the attitude, efforts, and eventually results. Although physically feeding your brain is a great point to introduce.
Through David Wolfe I have a powder called Camu Camu which is an Amazonian fruit I believe, and it's super high in Vitamin Cand has been tested to support brain function and also increases Seratonin to the brain. Great in smoothies before a run.
Spirulina is another great addition, and it helps rid the body of free radicals, build proteins, and increases energy by balancing immune system and helping absorb necessary nutrients.
I'm a huge believer in Superfoods.
Thanks for the guidance and background info. Interesting to know about the role of the liver & brain in this. Now I have a handle on how to approach this!
Very helpful article, thanks! I was wondering though, the hour after you eat, does it start from when you start eating or finish?
