We are nearly halfway through the college football regular season, and conference play has officially begun. While everyone may already have an idea of which teams are College Football Playoff contenders and which team will compete for their respective conference championships, there is still so much to be decided.
Week 6 in college football contains only two ranked matchups, but this in-state Big Ten East division clash between the Spartans and the Wolverines is one to keep an eye on.
Michigan won the last matchup a year ago in East Lansing and leads the all-time series at 36-26-2. However, Michigan State has won seven of the last nine matchups, including a notorious last second botched punt from Michigan that led to a walk-off win in Jim Harbaugh's first year with the Wolverines in 2015.
Mark Dantonio's team plummeted to a 3-9 record last season after a Big Ten title and College Football Playoff berth in 2015, but the Spartans are off to a 3-1 start in 2017.
Michigan, on the other hand, was primed for their first outright Big Ten title since 2003, but two late regular season losses wiped that out.
Michigan may have lost ten starters on defense from last year's team, but the Wolverines still have every bit of a championship caliber unit this season.
Defensive coordinator Dom Brown runs an aggressive 3-4 scheme that will rotate as many as 20 players through the lineup.
Michigan's young secondary still has questions, as they have forced only two turnovers through four games, but they do rank fourth in the FBS in passing yards allowed.
The strength of this unit, however, is once again in the front seven. Star defensive linemen Maurice Hurst and Rashan Gary, along with a stellar group of linebackers led by Devin Bush and Mike McCray, lead a unit that ranks first in the FBS against the run.
Michigan State's young offense will have their first major test against this defense. Sophomore quarterback Brian Lewerke is one of the more under the radar players in the Big Ten. He is completing 63 percent of his passes with eight touchdowns and two interceptions. He also leads the team in rushing and averages 6.5 yards per carry.
They also have a dangerous duo of running backs in L.J. Scott and Gerald Holmes. The biggest weakness for Michigan State is their young offensive line, as the Spartans average just 4.5 yards per carry. That may be an issue against a relentless Michigan defensive front.
The biggest Michigan storyline heading into this week though, was that starting quarterback Wilton Speight will be out multiple weeks with a neck/head injury. The Wolverines will turn to senior John O'Korn.
As good as they are defensively, inexperience at the skill positions and ineffectiveness at quarterback leave many people doubting Michigan's ceiling.
In four games, Speight completed just 54 percent of his passes with only three touchdowns to two interceptions. When O'Korn entered in the second half for the injured Speight, the offense moved much more efficiently. He would finish 18 for 26 with 270 yards.
One has to think that if O'Korn continues to plays well while Speight is out, the Wolverines may stick with him.
The good news is that the Wolverines have a deep stable of running backs in Ty Isaac, Chris Evans, and Karan Higdon.
Michigan suffered a big blow when they lost a talented true freshman wide receiver in Tarik Black for the season with a foot injury. However, they still have a pair of inexperienced, but explosive receivers in Grant Perry and Donovan Peoples-Jones, who will look to carry the load from here on out. Sean McKeon has also been a reliable tight end thus far.
Michigan State's defense is also very young, but they have played well outside of a blowout loss to Notre Dame in week three. The unit still ranks 16th against the run and ninth against the pass among FBS teams, so O'Korn will have a much tougher test than the one at Purdue last week.
Michigan is the much better team on paper to this point, but there is always a different feel to in-state rivalry games.
The Wolverines will win, especially since they are at home under the lights in the Big House, one of the toughest places to play in America.
Michigan is expected to win, so it will not be considered a statement victory. The thing to look out for is how their offense runs differently with O'Korn at the helm for a full game.
The defense is championship caliber, but Michigan will not be a national championship contender until they can resolve their quarterback issues.
Maybe O'Korn is the answer, but if he is not, Harbaugh and his team's ceiling will have a hard cap.

The New Frontier: "Mass Effect: Andromeda" Reboots a Landmark Franchise
by Brian Tallerico
April 11, 2017 |
Rarely has a game been more ambitious and frustrating as EA's "Mass Effect: Andromeda," the reboot of the landmark series that ended in 2012. It is a game of stunning, sprawling scope that challenges the very expectations one has when they have a controller in their hands. It is also a game with inferior graphics, thin dialogue, and clichéd storytelling. What was so remarkable about the "Mass Effect" trilogy was the way in which the developers blended authorship and narrative. You were both handed a brilliant, captivating narrative—one that spread over three games—and allowed to shape it with not just your gameplay decisions but dialogue choices that influenced character development. "Andromeda" seems to come from the same template—gamer choices that influence a rich narrative—but it's a much more gigantic adventure, one that can be almost overwhelming. Still, it's difficult to stop playing once you commit to what this game has to offer and come to terms with what it doesn't.
First, a little history. "Mass Effect" was released by BioWare and Electronic Arts in 2007 for the Xbox 360, and its impact was immediate. In the late '00s, authorship in gaming was changing, allowing for more gamer control over the arc of a narrative than ever before, and "Mass Effect" felt like a massive breakthrough in that arena. Not only did you customize relatively standard things like weapon loadouts and skill upgrades, but you chose which squadmates to bring with you on missions, and developed relationships with each of them through dialogue. It was a series in which interpersonal relationships seemed more important than explosions. People would feel prouder about romantic developments—yes, you could sleep with most of your crew—than standard gaming accomplishments like killing bosses. And decisions made over the course of all three games impacted the final scenes (although not enough for hardcore fans still enraged over the disappointing closing scene, which arguably took away that oh-so-valuable "choice").
"Mass Effect 3" closed the trilogy five years ago, and BioWare took the time to figure out how to bring the series back in a way that doesn't just echo the previous games. Five years is a lifetime in the world of gaming. And so we can't just have a traditional "Mass Effect 4." Knowing that, they tinkered with the gameplay, allowing for more freedom in combat and a very different hero. In an effort to give gamers even more control over their protagonist, the developers lost one of the things that made the original "Mass Effect" trilogy so effective—a hero's journey. Sure, you play a heroic guy or gal in "Andromeda," but it's one you can constantly customize and adjust, turning him into more of a cipher than a leader. He has no personality. And that's only the first problem here narratively.
But I'm getting ahead of myself. "Mass Effect: Andromeda" announces itself as a game about exploration from its opening scenes. It starts in 2185, between the actions of games two and three, when four races of beings send 20,000 citizens on a 600-year journey to Andromeda. When they get there, let's just say things don't go as planned. You play as Scott or Sara Ryder, child of a leader of the human race known as the Pathfinder (voiced by the great Clancy Brown), and heir to the throne more quickly than you may have expected. Before you know it, you're leading your own ship, known as the Tempest, and building a squad of interstellar partners in crime to take on missions. The foundation of the "Mass Effect" games—in which you basically build your own Enterprise crew and foster relationships with them through conversation—remains intact.
The bulk of the narrative of "Mass Effect: Andromeda" consists of Ryder and his team trying to find places for humanity to settle. It involves a lot of landing on planets, killing evil things on those planets, and then creating outposts on those planets. It is a galaxy of places to explore. Now, most of the planets you can't even land on, although you can mine some for materials from your ship. However, jumping through asteroid belts and across solar systems definitely conveys the ambitious size of this game. It reminds me of last year's disappointing "No Man's Sky" in the way that game encouraged exploration. One can follow the direct line of the game's "Story Missions," or really get entrenched on a planet and complete hours of side missions and just general exploration. I've been stuck on the snow-covered Voeld for days now, assuming it wouldn't take long to complete one planet's entire story and assuming very wrongly. That's the one thing about "Mass Effect: Andromeda" that really works. It's a game that conveys your relatively small size in that there's always something over the horizon or down in a cave that you haven't seen yet. It will drive completists insane.
The sad thing is how much of the same thing those completists will have to do over and over and over again. Sure, there's variation in the ways you can approach combat like different loadouts and biotic skills but the richer storytelling of the previous three games made the repetition of its shooting sequences more forgivable. I have shot the same bad guys hundreds of times already and I'm nowhere near done. "Mass Effect: Andromeda" requires great patience when it comes to its basic third-person shooter construction.
More rewarding have been the times when the story has presented me with a crossroads. Save a group of prisoners or destroy the facility so that it can't just be refilled when these ones are gone? Dialogue choices feel more diverse than in previous games, which often gave you a "good" and "evil" dynamic. And some of the narrative twists have been thematically rich, such as when a new friend realized that the enemies we were fighting were mutated forms of his own people, who he was trying to save. But I keep longing for more, wanting more storytelling and less combat; more character work and less driving around. I too often feel in "Andromeda" like I'm killing time, pushing to the next major event instead of progressing there.
Part of the problem is that "Andromeda" often looks flat-out horrible. Much has been made already of the bizarre facial models (look at that walking nightmare on the right), ones for which the weirdly-misshapen lips don't match up with the audio of the voice work, and the dead eyes on every single character plunge them deep into the Uncanny Valley. It's undeniable that 2012's "Mass Effect 3" looked better than this game, and that was on a previous generation. The corners that were clearly cut visually—probably just to pack in as much game as possible and get it out by a certain date—were unforgivable. And the paper-thin dialogue doesn't help either.
Bad graphics, hackneyed dialogue, repetitive combat—why do I keep playing "Mass Effect: Andromeda"? And yet I think I'll keep returning to it, looking for new planets to explore and new friends to make. It could be because of trying to recreate that feeling that the first three games gave me, or it could be because this one still has the potential to surprise you from time to time and, who knows, maybe Hour 45 is the one where it really clicks. Probably not. What's interesting is that "Andromeda" has taken the authorship of those early games to a new extreme, giving you a universe in which to play instead of just a spaceship or a planet. My only concern is that there's nothing worth playing under all those suns.

Fedora 18: Dangerous to your Data
by Matthew Smith · 20th February, 2013
Last month Fedora released the latest version of their Linux distribution, version 18, codenamed "Spherical Cow", a reference to an engineering joke, the main new feature of which is a redesigned installer (still called Anaconda, but visually and in other respects very different from the old Anaconda). I've tried Fedora a few times, and generally found it undistinguished since they moved away from the Bluecurve look they pioneered in 2002. However, Linux User and Developer magazine called it "a wonderful, minimalist-designed app", although reviewers linked off DistroWatch often thoroughly disagree. I found this release hideous; it's got serious bugs which reveal themselves at almost every turn.
I tried Fedora four times. First, I used the Live CD that came with LU&D, which uses GNOME 3 with the standard Shell. Normally, a live CD boots into a desktop environment. This booted to a login screen, giving no indication as to how to proceed. Eventually, a bit of Google searching revealed that you're meant to log in as root, without a password. That should be on the screen, or even on the DVD page of the magazine (not Fedora's fault, I know).
I then downloaded the net-install CD, as I only had spare blank CD-ROMs and the other downloads are DVD size. The new installer looks quite nice although the buttons are often in odd places. It had two obvious things wrong, however. The most significant was that the partitioner is extremely confusing, with the options given peculiar and unfamiliar names (obvious at the outset, where you have to choose "Installation Destination") and it's easy to lose settings you've made. You can't do simple things like change disk labels unless you want to reformat (so if the partition used for the home directory is called, say, "opensuse-home", it'll have to keep that name until you change it later). I would appreciate being able to partition both disks from the same screen, as in YaST (or at least, more easily than this, as on the Ubuntu installer). This is Unix, after all. It's all going to be one file structure once it's loaded.
The second flaw was the limited software installation choices. You could choose between some canned system models - either a specific desktop (and only one), or a development or graphics workstation (and it didn't tell you what desktop or window manager that would mean installing). You couldn't, unlike in the old Anaconda, look inside the software selections and choose particular packages.
When I tried to reboot, I discovered that it hadn't installed the bootloader properly, so I had to launch Fedora manually from the "Grub Rescue" prompt, which was difficult as Grub 2 lacks command history (meaning using the Up arrow to choose and edit previous commands) or even any kind of help. The initial boot then stalled when trying to configure NTP, and there was nothing I could do except just reboot. When I did that, it made me set up yet another user, which I had to later delete, as it's only me that uses the machine.
I chose Cinnamon, which is OK although there are some bugs (like desktop icons not showing even if you enable the option to show them), but those aren't Fedora's fault (it's a Linux Mint product). What is definitely Fedora's fault is the rotten software installer, which doesn't tell you what's going on while it's installing stuff. It's got no obvious settings, the status display at the bottom keeps disappearing, nor even a quit button. MATE, which is the continuation of GNOME 2, quickly revealed it's chief flaw - a background covered in file icons, from the days when Desktop was used as the download folder. That had obvious bugs too, like the file manager not appearing in theme despite being a part of the desktop. I finally installed KDE (it took some searching to find out how - there should be a package simply called KDE, or maybe kde-desktop… but it seems you need to put a @ sign, which I had to Google to find out). When I got that installed, although it worked fairly well for the most part, I discovered that dragging certain apps (like Firefox and Thunderbird) round the screen would result in them careering off rather than staying under the mouse pointer. I tried to fix that by installing the proprietary ATI graphics driver, but I couldn't start up the X window server after that (which means no desktop of any kind, only plain text programs like an old DOS machine for those old enough to remember those).
(Note: I've since installed OpenSUSE on this computer, and discovered that this is an upstream problem - it's also present in Kubuntu Quantal using KDE 4.9 and OpenSUSE 12.3 RC1 using KDE 4.10, so this is either a graphics driver issue or a KDE bug, not Fedora's fault.)
Fedora 18 is a disaster. The Fedora project should retract this release, because it's dire. It is the worst version of a major Linux distro since Mandrake 9.2 in 2003 or so, which deleted the firmware in some people's CD drives and kept crashing my machine with interminable disk activity which I could only escape from by switching the machine off. This release is, in my opinion, dangerous to your data because of the confusing partitioner. Besides the familiar mediocrity of this distro (like the poor software installation utilities which were outperformed by SUSE and Ubuntu years ago), this release is half-baked, barely beta-quality software. It should be avoided like the plague.

Analysis: Beyond the fragile peace in Aden
Will a new round of talks end the war in Yemen?

Gamal Gasim
Less than two months after his appointment as governor of Aden, Major General Jaafar Mohammed Saad and his security guards were killed in a terrorist attack for which the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group in Yemen immediately claimed responsibility.
During his short tenure as governor of Aden, Saad confronted extreme security challenges, including a short period of detention lasting only for a few hours, by some militia members in the city.

Although the Saudi-led coalition has succeeded in defeating the Houthi-(former president Ali Abdullah) Saleh alliance in Aden, the overall security situation in the city remains extremely vulnerable to frequent violence.
The recent assassinations of Colonel Aqeel al-Khodr, a top intelligence official, and Judge Mohsen Alwan, in addition to the control of two small towns in the South of Yemen by al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), reveal ongoing sophisticated and calculated plans to undermine the efforts of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi's government to bring stability to war-torn Yemen.
Furthermore, both the timing and location of these recent attacks raise some serious questions about the identity of those directing the newly established branch of ISIL in Yemen in an effort to halt the advance of the Saudi-led coalition towards Taiz and Sanaa.
Yemeni analysts say it is quite important to distinguish between ISIL operating in Iraq and Syria and the adaptation that is now emerging in Yemen.
WATCH: What is the solution to the war in Yemen?
The Yemeni ISIL offshoot, according to Khaled Alansi, a Yemeni attorney and human rights activist, emerged only when AQAP denied responsibility for attacks targeting Sanaa mosques and markets last March saying that it avoids targeting mosques to protect "innocent Muslims".
AQAP controls parts of the vast southeastern province of Hadramawt, including the provincial capital Mukalla, which it seized in April.
Alansi claimed that the establishment of ISIL in Yemen is 'a fabrication' of pro-Saleh media outlets. "The Aden attacks bear the hallmarks of Saleh's violent activities in Yemen," said Alansi.

Alansi explained that the increased criticism directed against Hadi's handling of the situation originated primarily from forces seeking his removal from the presidency in order to further destabilise the political and security situation in Yemen.
Nevertheless, the fragile security in Aden is not exclusively because of the presence of terrorist organisations or those backing them.
"The reasons behind Aden being unstable go back to the political differences between parties of the legitimate government," says Mohammed Jumeh, a Yemeni writer and political analyst.
"Of course the security gap which was left in Aden after the defeat of Saleh's military and security forces, had played a central role in the security deterioration in the city."
Al Jazeera World – The Road to Sanaa
Hadi recently returned to Aden to oversee the military operations in Taiz, and has announced the appointment of five new ministers including Mohammed Hussein Arab as minister of Interior, a position that he once held under Saleh's presidency.
According to Jumeh, the implementation of these changes without consultation between Hadi and Prime Minister Khaled Bahah suggests a lack of coordination and a silent power struggle between the two men.
It is also unclear whether Hadi consulted other key political players, such as the Islah party, Yemen's Islamist and oldest political party, over these appointments.
On Monday, Hadi quickly appointed a new governor for Aden, Brigadier Idrous Gasim Alzabeedi, and a new director-general for Aden's police force. Both men are well-known within the Aden local resistance forces and have strong ties to al-Hirak al-Janoubi, the separatist Southern Movement in the south of Yemen.
These appointments, however, will not bring stability to Aden unless Hadi also acts swiftly to reassure Aden's citizens that their city will not fall back into chaos and civil war.
So far, Hadi has done little to accommodate or transform Aden's popular resistance groups into a formal security force. This delay could easily result in catastrophe since these groups, without the legitimacy of being a formal security force, are incapable of restoring peace and maintaining law and order in the de facto capital city of Yemen.
Starvation in Yemen: 'We are hoping just to survive'
It is ironic that while Hadi's men provide soft targets for terrorist groups, the chairman of the Houthi revolutionary council, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, and other Houthis leaders can move freely in Northern Yemen provinces without fear of AQAP or Saudi air strikes.
Al-Houthi recently made a surprise visit to the province of Ibb, declaring it "the province of peace and tourism". His visit was intended to appeal to Yemeni tribes to sign a memorandum of understanding which calls for defending Yemen against the Saudi-led coalition.
These developments in Aden have occurred on the heels of an announcement by the newly appointed minister of foreign affairs that the Geneva talks would resume on December 15, 2015.
It was also announced that a short ceasefire will precede the talks in order to ease humanitarian suffering in Yemen, and as a sign of good will. This may also include confidence-building measures that could include the release of the Yemeni defence minister who was captured by Houthi forces earlier during the war.
Regardless of when the next round of negotiations commences, it remains unlikely that it will end Yemen's crisis.

Windows 7 End Of Support And How It Will Affect Your Business
ydvn2
If you are a Windows 7 user, be advised that on January 14, 2020, Microsoft will end support of the popular operating system. In fact, Microsoft is ending support for quite a few of their platforms, including Small Business Server 2011, Windows 2008 R2, Exchange 2010, SQL Server 2008 R2, Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 and Office 2010. That means that, although your computer will still operate like normal, there won't be any security patches, updates, new features or product support available from Microsoft for these operating systems.
What does this mean for you? With Windows 7 still being used by an estimated 30% of desktops and laptops across the world, it could mean a lot and it could have a significant effect on your business. If your small to medium or enterprise level business uses the Windows 7 operating system, you will want to upgrade as soon as possible to avoid a wide range of usability issues.
From slowdowns and compliance issues, to malware, viruses and ransomware vulnerabilities and more, your business could become the target of cybercriminals which can lead to the loss of data, privacy concerns and more.
There are many options available to you and, depending on the number of systems you have running Windows 7, it could be expensive. You could purchase Windows 10 operating systems for all of your computers and laptops, but you will need to ensure that these devices can handle the new operating system. Some computers and laptops aren't capable of using Windows 10 without some upgrades. Another option is to purchase new computer systems that already have Windows 10 installed. However, this can become very expensive depending on your business' needs.
You could also go the open source route and use another operating system such as Linux. While free, your staff will need to learn how to use this OS and that could take some time.
Whatever you decide, consulting with an experienced IT firm can ensure that your business runs smoothly after January 14, 2020 and that your computer systems are safe and secure.

CURRENTLY READING How Much Protein Is Too Much?
It's no secret that protein can do wonders for the body— it can help people gain muscle mass, make them feel fuller longer, and prevent those late-night trips to the cookie jar Exercise, protein metabolism, and muscle growth. Tipton KD, Wolfe RR. Metabolism Division, Department of Surgery, University of Texas Medial Branch-Galveston, Galveston, TX. International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. 2001 Mar;11(1):109-32 Neural Responses to Visual Food Stimuli After a Normal vs. Higher Protein Breakfast in Breakfast-Skipping Teens: A Pilot fMRI Study. Leidy HJ, Lepping RJ, Savage CR, et al. Department of Dietetics & Nutrition, University of Kansas Medical Center, Kansas City, Kansas. Obesity 2011;19(10): 2019-2025. . And while protein is essential in a healthy, balanced diet, there can be risks when people eat too much of it.
People ages 18 and older should consume 0.36 grams of protein daily for every pound they weigh. So a 150-pound person needs about 54 grams of protein, equivalent to six ounces of cooked chicken breast. Who knew a little chicken could go a long way? Especially active people like marathoners or bodybuilders, should gobble down more protein to keep up with their fast metabolisms.
As important as protein is, eating too much is potentially dangerous. People looking to bulk up sometimes load up on protein, thinking steak and protein shots will produce insta-muscles. But a diet of green eggs and ham alone doesn't do much toward defining those pecs, since eating protein without pumpin' iron won't build body muscle Protein and amino acids for athletes. Tipton KD, Wolfe RR. Department of Surgery, University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston, TX. Journal of Sports Science. 2004 Jan;22(1):65-79. . High protein intake also often goes hand in hand with skimping out on the carbs, which can lead to insufficient fiber— a cause of constipation and diverticulitis.
There are definite health dangers to going after the Schwarzenegger look with an all-protein diet. It turns out our bodies can't store excess protein, so once it's broken down into amino acids, the kidneys excrete the nitrogen content. And the more protein we chow down, the harder the kidneys have to work to remove the waste. Studies suggest people with kidney disease should limit their protein intake, though there isn't enough evidence to prove that excessive protein intake can actually cause kidney disease Dietary protein intake and renal function. Martin WF, Armstrong LE, Rodriguez NR. Department of Nutritional Sciences, University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT. Nutrition & Metabolism (Lond). 2005 Sep 20;2:25. .
But don't toss away all the eggs and bacon just yet, since not getting enough protein has its risks too. An insufficient amount of protein can lead to undernutrition, which may result in extreme weight loss, fatigue, or diarrhea. It's best to get most protein from plant sources like beans, legumes, nuts, and soy products to steer clear of excess cholesterol. Skip the pig (we know bacon is heavenly, but still), and opt for lean meats like turkey, chicken, and beef tenderloin in moderation.
At the end of the day, it's all about balance. Health problems can result from consuming too much or too little of any food group.

On September 10, The Iron Saints won a 4-Team Tournament to regain the championship. The duo defended their championship for six months before losing them to Ian Rotten and Mad Man Pondo on March 18, 2006.

Vito and Sal began teaming with their brother Brandon, bringing him in as an occasional member of The Iron Saints. Brandon, however, focused on a career as a single competitor. On May 26, 2007, The Iron Saints won their third IWA Mid-South Tag Team Championship by winning the 2007 Candido Cup. The duo held the championship for 280 days, becoming the longest reigning tag team champions in IWA Mid-South history.

Independent circuit (2007)
At Pro Wrestling Unplugged's Pride, Pain, & Punishment event on May 19, 2007, Brandon, Sal, and Vito formed the stable the Thomaselli Brothers. That July, The Iron Saints debuted in Elite Pro Wrestling and won the EPW Tag Team Championship. Vito betrayed and attacked Sal later that September, leading to the two brothers feuding with each other for several weeks. On November 3, The Iron Saints lost the EPW Tag Team Championship to Team W.A.R.

Juggalo Championship Wrestling (2007–present)
All three Thomaselli brothers debuted in Juggalo Championship Wrestling on December 21, 2007 at that year's Big Ballas' X-Mas Party. In early 2008, Brandon and Vito became involved in a brief feud with the heroic tag team The Ring Rydas. Later that year, Brandon and Vito took part in the "Slam TV Tour 2008." The brothers participated in the "JCW Tag Team Tournament" for the company's vacant JCW Tag Team Championship, but were eliminated in the first round. At Bloodymania II, The Outsiders (Scott Hall and Kevin Nash) defeated the Thomaselli Brothers (Sal and Vito).

That December at Big Ballas X-Mas Party '08, the Thomaselli Brothers (Brandon and Vito) disguised themselves as The Ring Rydas and defeated The Bump-N-Uglies to win the JCW Tag Team Championship. At Bloodymania III, Brandon and Vito lost the championship to The Weedman and Billy Bong. On October 20, 2009, Brandon Thomaselli changed his wrestling name to Pauly Thomaselli. At that year's Hallowicked After-Party, the Thomaselli Brothers (Pauly and Vito) defeated The Weedman and Billy Bong to become two time JCW Tag Team Champions.

Throughout May and June 2010, the Thomaselli Brothers went on tour with JCW on Insane Clown Posse's "Happy Daze Tour." The duo successfully defended their championship on numerous occasion. On June 3, as part of a storyline, the Thomaselli Brothers were renamed The Haters by Juggalo Championship Wrestling owners Insane Clown Posse due to their villainous actions. The Haters were also given masks and costumes that they are forced to wear during all of their matches. At Bloodymania IV, the Haters lost the JCW Tag Team Championship to The Kings of Wrestling in a four way Tag Team match that also featured the Briscoe Brothers and Ring Rydas.

At Flashlight Hysteria, the Haters won their third JCW Tag Team Championship in an 8 tag team battle royal. The team lost the championship to Mad Man Pondo and Necro Butcher in a hardcore Barbed Wire, Thumbtacks, and Ladders match at the following event, Hardcore Hell.

In the spring of 2011 they unsuccessfully pursued JCW Tag Team Championship losing to Mad Man Pondo and Necro Butcher in their rematch at iPPV Hatchet Attacks and later to Ring Rydas (who became champions earlier by defeating Pondo and Necro) at iPPV St. Andrews Brawl.

Well, we are back on Dead Ox trail! We were in the area, with our cross country gear, and wanted to spend a little time back on the Dead Ox trail in Lead, SD. It was such a beautiful winter day that we just couldn't help ourselves. Being back on this trail in skis makes this a whole different experience. We only had an hour so we were unable to complete the loop we wanted to when we were out here in December BUT we didn't run into any people and no snow this time around, so that was a treat!
The Eagle Cliff trails are well known in the Black Hills for a prime location to cross country ski. The trails were developed by local skiing enthusiasts in the mid 1980's but is used for many other purposes (hiking, biking, etc). There are 21 intertwining loops and dead-end trails. The trail difficulty ratings are based on cross-country skiing but other users may find them less difficult. The trails are maintained by the USDA Forest Service and the Eagle Cliff Ski Association. They ask that snowshoers not use the groomed ski trails since it damages the tracks that the ski club works hard to maintain. A map for snowshoeing is shown here.
There are a variety of groomed cross country skiing areas in the Black Hills. I have not been to all of them, though they are on my list to check out!
For more information on where else to cross country ski or snowshoe in the Black Hills check out the Forest Service's webpage.


Around 32% of total revenue comes from the central government either in the form of grants or share in the central taxes and 28% in the form of borrowings. And 18% of total revenue is used either for paying the debts or interest. It leads to budget deficit of Rs 30,000 crore or 3% of gross state domestic product. There should be financial prudence.
Gehlot announced various lucrative schemes, starting with a loan waiver scheme for the farmers and an unemployment allowance of Rs 3,500 per month. But how they will distribute that amount and how much will be the financial burden on the treasurer is still not clear.
The chief minister announced free education to the girl child.
But only a few thousand seats are available at government schools and colleges, so the government should provide scholarship to the girls studying at private institutions.
Private developers have made huge investments in the infrastructure because Jaipur is high of country's tourism map. Other added attraction is the peaceful environment of the state.
But due to government apathy, the existing infrastructure is not being properly utilized. The government should focus more on tourism to boost revenue and employment opportunities for the youth.
Every government in its budget should focus on the industrial development which in turn will spur sustainable development.
Long term planning can bail Rajasthan out of the basket of BIMARU states.
Before presenting the budget, the CM should make public the promises made in the last year's budget and subsequently fulfilled.

A More Truthful Budweiser "America" Redesign
By The Editors Wednesday, May 11th, 2016
A CAN RE-DO SPIRIT DEPT.
Budweiser just announced that, through November, their beer would be renamed "America" — and its logo would be redesigned to be as ham-fistedly patriotic as possible (our words, not theirs). They opted to include lines from the Star-Spangled Banner and The Pledge of Allegiance, but we think they should've gone in a different direction and been more upfront about their hacky, hollow marketing ploy.

The movie opens by saying that it's based on a true story. Don't know how much of it is true, but the action packed thriller written and directed by Lee Won-tae played at Midnight Screenings section at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival. It opened in South Korea in May. The slick crime film has been picked up by Sylvester Stallone's production company for an American re-make keeping the lead Korean-American actor Don Lee a.k.a. Ma Dong-seok who had the break out performance in Train to Busan.
It's the summer of 2005 police detective Jung Tae-suk (Kim Moo-yeol) investigating a stabbing death finds a pattern matching a couple of other previous murders. He brings his theory to his boss who wants him to leave it to another crime unit. Jung is a bit of a loose cannon (think Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon). He wants to follow up his ideas. When crime boss Jang Dong-soo (Don Lee) is rear ended and attacked by the serial killer (Kim Sung-kyu) he doesn't realize that he picked the wrong victim. The muscular Dong-soo, despite the multiple stab wounds inflicted by the killer manages to fight him off. Jung comes to question Dong-soo in the hospital telling him that the killer's M.O. is to rear end the victims before he does them in. Dong-su has his reputation to uphold. His gang attack the rival gangs as they are circling for a take over, so he must seek and destroy the killer. The cop and gangster make an unlikely alliance to work together. Whoever finds him first gets to do him in or take him to jail. To keep Jung in line and not betray him, he records their agreement. Meanwhile the killer is leaving a wake of bodies behind as the the gangster and the cop are in pursuit. The cops use their technical resources to analyze the hair, fingerprints and blood.
Most of the characters are fairly stereotypical for this kind of movie. The insubordinate cop, the motiveless killer that they sort of say was abused as a child, and the gangster who uses a punching bag with a person inside is pretty over the top. It's Don Lee who pulls the interest as he internalizes the character while trying to maintain his image against being the victim of a random attack. In his world he's the top guy. He's got an army of gangsters at his fingertips. It's bad for business as investors are worried that he's become vulnerable. It's imperative to take this guy out and if that means he's got to work with this wild card cop, then so be it. There are car chases, foot chases, two guys battling multiple bad guys. The action is endless and satisfying. It will be interesting to see where the American version will take this movie. At least we will get to see him as he has recently joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe film The Eternals

Luis Enrique will not take charge of Spain for their game against Malta on Tuesday due to "family reasons", the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has confirmed.
La Roja face Malta in a Euro 2020 qualifier in Ta' Qali three days after Spain began their group with a 2-1 home victory over Norway.
Robert Moreno, who is Luis Enrique's assistant and previously worked with the Spain boss at Roma, Celta Vigo and Barcelona, will lead the team in the coach's absence.
A tweet from the RFEF account read: "We inform of the absence of our coach Luis Enrique Martinez in the match tonight for family reasons.

Don't forget to teach Hawaiian kids the Hawaiian language.
I read today's paper and there was an article about the University of Hawai'i-Manoa approving Hawaiian and Hawaiian studies as masters programs. While it's great that it's being taught in a university I hope that other Hawaiians keep it in perspective and remember that there are Hawaiian KIDS out there who need/must be taught their language, the Hawaiian language. I hope the people in this program don't forget the Hawaiian kids. Seriously. I joke about how selfish some Hawaiians are but more Hawaiians need to focus on Hawaiian kids... not just their own and not focus on themselves too much:
Hawaiian master's degree approved after heated debate
"After University of Hawaii regents approved proposals to create new master's degrees in Hawaiian and Hawaiian Studies at UH-Manoa, students and faculty began a mele, which spoke of Hawaiians moving forward in education.
The chant, in the Hawaiian language, followed three hours of testimony before the regents yesterday.
Students and faculty at UH-Manoa spoke about the need for the program, noting that to continue their education in Hawaiian studies and language, they had to pursue other graduate degrees, like English, anthropology or linguistics.
They also noted that the Center for Hawaiian Studies at UH-Manoa has been working with the College of Education to train teachers for Hawaiian immersion programs in public schools.
But the testimony also made public a long-simmering rivalry between the Hawaiian language programs at UH-Manoa and UH-Hilo.
UH-Hilo associate professor Larry Kimura testified that he had concerns that the UH-Manoa program needed to be more academically rigorous, with requirements as tough as other languages like Chinese or Japanese.
UH-Hilo already offers a master's degree in Hawaiian Language and Literature.
Kimura said that when Hilo offered its master's program, it was required to consult with UH-Manoa professors. But UH-Manoa did not consult with UH-Hilo in developing its program. He also noted that the Hilo program has yet to be fully funded.
An angry Lilikala Kame'eleihiwa, director of the Center for Hawaiian Studies, criticized Kimura, noting that he only has a master's, not a doctorate.
"We're not duplicating (UH-Hilo). We're outdoing them," Kame'eleihiwa said.
Leilani Basham, the coordinator for Hawaiian language programs at UH-Manoa, said the master's program, which faculty at Manoa have been working toward for at least four years, will focus on more than Hawaiian language. It will also involve political science, history, art and a broad range of knowledge.
Neil Smatresk, UH-Manoa vice chancellor for academic affairs, said Kimura's concerns were considered as the UH-Manoa administration and the UH-Manoa faculty senate approved the new master's programs.
"These are groundbreaking fields," said Smastresk. "We trust faculty to bring high- quality degrees to us.""

Council of State Governments (CSG) Model Bill: Trespassing, Interference, and Destruction of Critical Infrastructure
Updated July 15, 2019.
See Full Report: State Bills to Criminalize Peaceful Protest of Oil & Gas "Critical Infrastructure"
CSG MODEL BILLS:
CSG's 2019 Shared State Legislation committee included two Oklahoma laws--HB 2128 and HB 1123--in its annual volume of model bills, according to CSG.
Submitted to CSG committee on shared state legislation in 2017
Adopted by CSG committee on shared state legislation December 15, 2017
SSL committee meeting minutes published by CSG omit attendance at the 2017, in contrast to minutes provided for SSL meetings in December, 2015 and May 2016.
These two 2017 Oklahoma laws were also the basis for the ALEC model bill on critical infrastructure trespass.
North Dakota Rep. Kim Koppelman, CSG, and ALEC:
Since at least January of 2017, the CSL Committee on Shared State Legislation is co-chaired by North Dakota state Rep. Kim Koppelman, who co-sponsored ND HB 1293 several months before the CSG adopted bill was adopted.
Rep. Kim Koppelman is co-chair of the Council of State Governments' committee on Shared State Legislation (SSL), which approved a critical infrastructure protest model bill in December, 2017. Koppelman was CSG's national chair in 2008, and served on CSG's executive committee. Koppelman has been involved with CSG since at least 2000, and has participated in the SSL committee meetings for many years, since at least 2004 to 2017.
A 2006 CSG model bill titled "Unauthorized Entry of a Critical Infrastructure was based on Louisiana's Act 157 of 2004. It was included in CSG 2006 Suggested State Legislation Vol. 5, from CSG's Public Safety and Justice committee. North Dakota state Rep. Kim Koppelman attended the November 20, 2004 meeting of the SSL committee in Dana Point, CA, when the 2006 CSG "Unauthorized Entry of a Critical Infrastructure" model bill was approved. Rep. Koppelman was also chair of the CSG Public Safety and Justice committee that was responsible for producing the model bill (CSG Suggested State Legislation 2006, Vol. 5).
CSG's corporate sponsors from 2004-2006 include Koch Industries, ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP, Sunoco, Encana, and Williams Companies.
A 2003 CSG report on Critical Infrastructure was sponsored by BP, among other companies.
Todd Wynn, Trump Interior Department Official, former ALEC Energy task force director:
The Trump administratioin U.S. Interior Department's Todd Wynn was scheduled to speak to ALEC EEA task force director Grant Kidwell on Dec 19, 2017, ALEC denies a call happened.
While at the US Interior Department, Todd Wynn was scheduled to speak with CSG energy & environment committee chair Rich Lindsey on December 21, 2017.
In Sept. 2016, EEI's Todd Wynn was acknowledged as a sponsor of a CSG policy academy event, "The Future of American Electricity." (Wynn did not end out speaking at the event). The event opened with remarks from Minnesota state Senator Pat Garofalo, who later co-sponsored HB 3693 in 2018.
Oil, gas, chemical and utility lobbyists overlap at ALEC and CSG:
There is heavy overlap between CSG's current associate member companies, and the companies & lobbying groups that signed a letter to ALEC legislators asking them to support the ALEC model critical infrastructure when it was first being proposed by the ALEC Energy, Environment, and Agriculture task force in December, 2017. The ALEC model bill was approved by the ALEC task force at its December, 2017 meeting, and approved by the ALEC board in January, 2018. The letter to ALEC legislators, first reported by Alexander Kaufman at HuffPost, was signed by:
American Chemistry Council (ACC)
Represents BP Lubricants, Chevron-Phillips Chemical Co, ExxonMobil Chemical Company, Saudi Aramco (Motiva), Shell Chemical Co
Marathon Petroleum was a member of the ACC until 2018.
American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM)

Energy Policy Network
The EPN is a lobbyist spin-off of Peabody Energy, run by a former executive of the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity)
With the exception of the Energy Policy Network, all of these entities are CSG associate members (ACC, AFPM, AGA, EEI, and Marathon) and recurring sponsors of CSG events (ACC, AFPM, AGA, EEI, and Marathon).
Council of State Government Corporate Affiliates and Meeting Sponsors:
CSG "leadership" members currently pay annual dues of $40,000, and "associate" members pay $10,000. Members become eligible to participate in CSG's task forces and committees. In previous years, this was an included benefit, and annual dues were $6,000 (2009, 2010).

Katherine Marmaras
Katherine Marmaras is a Melbourne based printmaker and visual artist who incorporates printmaking techniques with other mediums to create works which explore the notion that art may be purely decorative.
Intrinsically and instinctively motivated, she abstracts colours, patterns and motifs found in nature, architecture, interiors and textiles to create works that are layered with textures and random marks; juxtaposing decoration and art.
Her work is process driven as she often finds herself losing all sense of time in the me
Her work is process driven as she often finds herself losing all sense of time in
ditative process of random and repetitive mark-making especially when working with clay.
Katherine's prints and works on paper have been exhibited widely, both nationally and internationally, in select group and award exhibitions and is represented in public and private collections including the National Gallery of Australia and the Brooklyn Art Library in Brooklyn, New York.

During my residency I plan to create a series of ceramic and mixed media works for exhibition. The works created will be an expression of the immediate and local surrounds by taking a closer look at objects found in nature and ephemera.
My intention is to create works which contemplate and reflect upon how natural forms impact our urban landscapes and the spaces which we live in; whilst exploring the notion that art may be purely decorative.
I look forward to immersing myself in the environment and capturing the moments and seasonal changes of the local surrounds. I hope to offer the community the opportunity to see and experience their surrounds through what may sometimes be overlooked in the day–to-day.
Maria Radun
Russian born, Maria now lives in Melbourne, Australia. She has been drawing and painting since childhood, but pursued other creative interests like graphic design and illustration in her twenties. She is currently completing a bachelor of Fine Arts at Monash University, focusing mostly on painting and drawing. Prior to making the commitment to pursue a full-time art career, she worked as a freelance Graphic Designer for several years. Maria is passionate about working from observation, this includes life-drawing, portraiture and still-life. In the studio, she works with photographic references which allow her to carefully construct figurative compositions in order to explore delicate and complex narratives. Her work is inspired by her personal experience of the world and the stories of others.

During her residency at BHCAC, Maria will develop a new body of work comprised of a series of creative portraits in oil paint medium. The artworks will be created in collaboration with the local community and feature people who immigrated to Australia at a young age. The resolved paintings will be exhibited at the BHCAC in May 2018.
Edwina Marion
Edwina Marion (21 August – 19 November)
Edwina is an illustrator and artist based in Melbourne. Originally from Perth, she moved over in 2012 with her husband to pursue her career and finish her studies, obtaining a Bachelor of Arts (Illustration).
Edwina works with many mediums, including watercolour, oil, pen and textiles. Her work has been displayed in galleries in New York, Los Angeles and Melbourne, as well as being sold at local markets. Edwina also recently illustrated a children's book, My Backyard Circus.
Edwina enjoys animals, flowers and comedy, themes she often explores in her work. She is passionate about social justice in general, and especially women's rights, and volunteers helping young people with The Salvation Army.
During my residency I plan to further explore the themes of femininity, nature and beauty, along with the connections that are made between them. I will be exploring a range of mediums but working primarily in watercolours, pencil and textiles as well as working on larger scale portraiture. I want to explore why we find nature beautiful, and why do we connect nature with femininity and beauty. I want to explore femininity in relation to how we construct the female gender and why we connect certain ideas or images to this construct, and how fashion plays a role.

Catriona Galbraith
Catriona Galbraith (1 May – 23 Jul)
Catriona is a cross-media artist, working primarily in photography, painting and sculpture. In recent years, Catriona's works have focussed on a growing interest in digital media and photography, which are used as a framework for multi-layered, mixed media works. Everyday and found objects frequently provide creative inspiration and feature in the works. Catriona is also a qualified lawyer with many years' experience providing policy advice and managing major reform projects for the Victorian Government. Reflecting this experience, her works develop from considered, conceptual frameworks despite the everyday imagery often featured.
During her residency, Catriona will produce a mixed media exhibition featuring rare and classic 'Star Wars' Lego spaceships, including iconic models such as the Millennium Falcon, the X-Wing Starfighter and the Imperial Star Destroyer. The original model spaceships will be displayed and will also act as a creative springboard for the production of vibrant mixed media works inspired by the models. A range of interactive installations and large artworks will be created, incorporating a variety of media including photography and sculpture. The resulting exhibition 'In Your Face in Space!' will encourage children and viewers of all ages to reinterpret the model spaceships in new and unexpected ways. 'In Your Face in Space!' will run at BHCAC during the school holidays from 10 – 16 July 2017.
Marynes Avila
Marynes Avila (3 – 30 April)
Marynes Avila is an Argentinean born, Melbourne based, multidisciplinary artist who implements the use of multiples as "data connectors" in the public realm. Redefining the object and its symbolism, Avila's practice is informed by Science and Nature, particularly Biology and Neuroscience, and Carl Jung's concept of the Collective Unconscious.
Avila completed a Bachelor of Education – Teaching Degree specializing in Creative Dance in Buenos Aires, Argentina obtaining a Scholarship for Academic Excellence & Professional Practice. She graduated with a Diploma of Arts -Visual Arts from Chisholm Institute, Frankston becoming the recipient of the 2005 Monyx Best Overall Portfolio Award. In 2008, Avila was awarded a Masters of Arts – Art in Public Space from RMIT University.
Avila has held 14 solo shows, participated in over 50 group exhibitions and completed 24 public art projects' commissions. She has been the winner of numerous art awards and the recipient of many national and international artist residencies. The artist's most recent residencies involved her collaboration with scientists of Ottawa University at the Laboratory for Biophysical Manipulation in Canada, and a residency at the Cataract Gorge Reserve in Tasmania. Avila's upcoming project 'Symbiosis' will be included in the 20th Anniversary Toolangi Sculpture Trial Event as part of a two-week artist in residence at the Toolangi Bushland Reserve.
The artist often undertakes international research on the concept of the Public Narrative of Multiples: A Language of Transcendence. The research consists of the cross- cultural investigation of multiples, and investigates multiplicity as a way of communication and human interaction.
Avila's work is included in public, corporate and private collections in Australia and overseas, and has been featured in many publications and in numerous newspapers articles.
During her residency at BHCAC, artist Marynes Avila will develop a new body of work including works on paper, digital photography and a site-specific project involving the use of microscopes. The digital microphotographs, video and drawings will be created as a collaboration with the local community and students from Koonung Secondary School. The resolved works will be exhibited at the BHCAC, and then will travel to Japan to be exhibited in our sister city, the city of Matsudo.
Jihye Min
Jihye Min (27 March – 24 September)
Jihye Min is a Korean-born Melbourne and Sydney based artist who aims for mutual empathy with her audience through multidisciplinary projects. She especially focuses on genuine expression of her interior conflicts for effective interaction with the exterior world.
After completing her Bachelor of Art in Seoul she extensively traveled all over the world and she has exhibited in Korea, New York, Washington, Antwerp, and Melbourne. While completing her Master's degree at UNSW Art and Design in Sydney, she showcased her projects in notable events and at venues such as live performance in the National Art Gallery and a duo show in the Michael Reid Gallery.
Recently, she has mostly presented in outdoor sculpture exhibitions like Sculpture at Scenic World in the Blue Mountains, Hidden Sculpture Walk and Sculpture at Sawmillers Reserve. All projects go along with live performance or poetry for better communication with her audience.
Now she is looking for the metaphorical destination in terms of art practice in Australia. As she classifies herself as a public artist, she wishes to belong to communities to which she can dedicate her artistic talent; she has previously been nominated for Artist Residencies in Dandenong and Box Hill.
My new multidisciplinary project scrutinizes the theme of time and space. That will respond to heritage sites in Box Hill; it can be presented by photographic and video images. These will contain aspects of the historical spaces along with live performance, ceramic installation and poetry to narrate my artistic interpretation of the times and the spaces. I would like to become a storyteller of the community to deliver the confined mystic stories in the heritage sites; that are the times the buildings have gone through for a century. These heavy volumes of stories, which powerfully weigh on the spaces, can impress the public; they will feel more engaged with such historic sites. Actually, the present community is making a continued history in this era; the extending stories of our region will be a treasurable legacy of our next generation. This project will be a remarkable event to re-spotlight the heritage sites in Box Hill.

Yinghong Li
Yinghong Li (20 February – 27 August)
Yinghong Li (Sophia), was born in Foshan China, where the city was full of history about making ceramics. In 2005, she came to Australia to study Arts, and graduated from the Master of Fine art in RMIT University in 2009.
Having a studio in both Melbourne and Foshan. Allows for her love of traveling and experiencing daily-life with her family in different cultures.
She combines contemporary-art elements and traditional cultures into her artworks. Her paintings are full of different layered elements, including brush marks, abundant colors and patterns, describing each moment of her travelling or her daily-life experiences. Her ceramic sculptures are mostly of plump ladies dressed in cheongsam, elegant and graceful. They represent ideas about beauty, by combining cultural elements in the decorations and glaze.
'Looking for my Symbol' is my project during the residency at BHCAC.
I love doing abstract paintings and making some plump ladies with ceramics. Both my paintings and ceramic-sculptures have their own strong art languages. Most people can not find the similar elements between my ceramics and paintings. That has encouraged me to start this project.
During the residency I plan to 'BREAK, READ and THINK'.
Slow down working, have some BREAKS and do more READING would be a good start. For example, Pablo Picasso was successful in this respect, and I would like time to gain more of an overview of my art-works, to THINK about what the connection between my paintings and ceramic sculptures is.
'Swap Elements' – Also I would like to Swap Elements between my works. For example, do some paintings about figures instead of abstraction, or using the same painting skill in my ceramic glazing. That would give me some ideas about my next step.

Annemarie Murland
Annemarie Murland is an internationally exhibiting artist and researcher who previously lectured and tutored (9 years) in the undergraduate and postgraduate program at the University of Newcastle, New South Wales.
Annemarie's area of speciality is the practice of abstract painting and drawing. Annemarie shared her knowledge and experience in her workshops "So You Think You Can't Draw". In these workshops the students developed their material knowledge and learnt the ABC's of drawing using experimental drawing strategies.
During the residency at Box Hill, Annemarie continued her research into exploring the material capacity of the traditional drawing surface using the local landscape and its material identity as a departure point for making new experimental works of art.
Melanie Jane Taylor
Melanie works with text components, video and installation strategies to display her extensive personal photographic archive; within these images she investigates the meanings of memory, loss, longing, absence and the complexity of time.
For her project 'All the Gardens I Could Find', Melanie focused on exploring the relationship between the garden, the archive and memory. She invited the garden and art lovers of the community to come forth and partake in the project by reflecting on their ideas of the garden, drawing on their own experiences and memories. The conversations and interviews between the artist and participants contributed to a new video work 'Garden, Memory, Archive' which was screened as part of her solo exhibition at Blindside ARI in November 2016.
Melanie completed a Master of Fine Arts (Coursework) at RMIT University in 2010. She has exhibited her work extensively in Australia and internationally. She is co-founder of The Australian Thai Artist Interchange (ATAI), a cross cultural exchange organisation and part of the collectives Concrete Post and Eye Collective.
Melissa Peacock
Visual and community artist Melissa Peacock's residency involved workshops 'Drawsome' for adults with a disability who wished to celebrate, develop and continue to explore skills in drawing. The artwork from 'Drawsome' formed an exhibition that was showcased in the BHCAC gallery.
Melissa has worked as a community arts worker and coordinator of an arts and crafts studio in Edinburgh.
Growing up in the Pyrenees region of Victoria on a sheep and wheat farm, Melissa's work explores the idea of sharing spaces in rural and urban landscapes.
Melissa also engaged with the wider community to create PomPom Sheep. These sheep contributed towards the National Wool Museum's Guinness World Record of the 'Largest display of handmade sheep'.
Julienne Storrar
Julienne is a visual artist who works with watercolours, acrylics, gouache and inks.
Julienne has a Diploma of Fine Art (Painting) RMIT, a Trained Technical Teachers Certificate and a Therapeutic Massage Certificate.
"I'm passionate about painting. My style is naturalistic, with subjects from life and imagination. I work in oils most of the time using semi-transparent layers as I develop the painting. Fruit and flowers are my favourite subjects although recently I have returned to painting portraits."
'Then and Now'
As part of her residency Julienne developed a community art project working with Whitehorse Schools and Residential Ages Care Facilities.
The aim of the project was to foster understanding between generations. Students were invited to meet and get to know senior citizens, write about an aspect of his or her life and paint or draw a portrait. Primary students met residents from Regis Inala Lodge and secondary students befriended residents from Regis Lake Park residential aged care facilities.
"Over the year as Artist-in-Residence at the Box Hill Community Arts Centre I grew very appreciative of 'The Loft' studio. It has been somewhat like a second home. It is the first time as an artist that I have had the benefit of a separate and dedicated place to work.
After a year of endeavour it was lovely to be able to share my work with others. There have been many encouraging comments.
Producing the thirty paintings has been very rewarding and also challenging. Along the way I have needed to solve many technical and design problems. I feel that I have refined my vision and gained in artistic confidence. I aim to bring images to life that could not otherwise exist so that others may share my joy and fascination with form and colour I can thoroughly recommend the experience of being Artist-in-Residence in the supportive atmosphere of Box Hill Community Arts Centre."
Tina Alesi
Tina Alesi was very excited to be a part of the Box Hill Community Arts Centre and creating art with the community. Tina created the "Wishing Tree Project" based on the hopes and dreams of the Box Hill community.
"I look forward to working with the community of Box Hill to create this very special work. Hopefully we all see how deep down we all want the same sorts of things, love hope and acceptance, etc… it's a great thing to see in this day and age."
Classes for the project ran in the school holidays aimed at children and families. Tina also worked with other groups within the centre, throughout the year.
Tina's art practice consists of painting, collage and installation. Tina loves colour and playful expression of paint. Geometry features a lot in her work and the underlining need to express happiness through colour is her aim. The meaning of her work incorporates the contrary elements of human desire and how truth can become lost in the commercialization of society. The "Wishing Tree Project", was a part of that research.
Tina studied Art at RMIT and then completed her Post Graduate Diploma in Education at Monash.
Vanessa David
Vanessa is a Glass and Ceramic Artist, who specialises in kiln cast glass and ceramic slip casting techniques. She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Glass, from Monash University, which she completed in 2008.
During her time at BHCAC, Vanessa enjoyed exploring and developing the use of ceramics in her practice, and enjoyed connecting with the diverse range of artists and community groups who are at the Art Centre.
Vanessa was involved in creating ceramic art and slip casting workshops for different groups within the community. Vanessa encouraged members to seek inspiration from their lived experiences and local surroundings, with a project based on the idea of casting everyday found objects.
Vanessa's own work is very much concerned with the everyday, spatiality and exploring states of mind. She is inspired by the unexpected beauty, horror and whimsy that can be found in the most ordinary and banal of places, and seeks to create work that is intimate and drawn from domestic life.
Nikita Burt
The Loft studio was Nikita's artistic hideaway for 2011. She spent much of her time developing a community arts project to help celebrate the Box Hill Community Arts Centre's 21st birthday.
