Artsy ideas
Give the gift of creativity
By Kelly Sennott ksennott@hippopress.com
For the art lover in your life, go with something locally made by an artist or, better yet, an artistic experience.
Currier creations
For the next two Thursdays — Thursday, Dec. 11, and Thursday, Dec. 18 — the Currier Museum of Art (150 Ash St., Manchester) will be open until 8 p.m. for holiday shoppers who can't make it to the museum during regular hours, which normally are from 10 or 11 a.m. until 5 p.m.
Currier Museum gift shop manager Heidi Norton offered a few ideas for those who will be using these extra hours for Christmas shopping.
"Of course, I think a Currier membership would be the best gift," Norton said during a phone interview. (Membership starts at $50 and goes up depending on the level you want.) "But I think people are also realizing the museum shop offers something more unique than at the mall."
Norton said items related to the M.C. Escher exhibition have been selling extremely well. The shop houses a plethora of quirky Escher-like gifts, from mirrored cube puzzles and tessellation design books to eclectic earrings and Escher-inspired jewelry.
The shop also sells fine art puzzles and mugs, art supplies, traveling sketchbooks, novelty sharpeners and fine pens, pencils and erasers. Inventory nearly always includes hand-crafted (and sometimes locally made) textiles, jewelry and other items.
Local artists have been working very hard for this holiday shopping season. There are gift shopping-friendly art shows covering most corners of southern New Hampshire this weekend.
The Mill Brook Gallery & Sculpture Garden (236 Hopkinton Road, Concord, themillbrookgallery.com, 226-2046) has an exhibition called "Artful Gift Giving 2014" that features a unique selection of fine art starting as low as $20 per gift. The gallery is open through Dec. 24 from Tuesday through Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Also in Concord, the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen's gallery (49 S. Main St., Suite 100, Concord) hosts a fine craft exhibition, "Gifts From Our Hands: What We Do Best." On view through Dec. 19, the exhibition showcases work by juried craftsmen members from all over the state, including shawls, jewelry, necklaces, ceramic tiles, stoneware, baskets, wall hangings, etc.
The Wild Salamander Creative Arts Center (30 Ash St., Hollis, wildsalamander.com, 465-WILD, kcm@wildsalamander.com) also offers a price point-friendly art show, "Good Things Come in Small Packages," on view through December. Participating artists have designed in a smaller format to make the fine art more accessible. The center also houses a brand-new "Wild Little Art Shop," which also contains one-of-a-kind jewelry, prints, greeting cards and fine craft.
Around Manchester, Studio 550's (550 Elm St., Manchester, 550arts.com, 232-5597) Cup Show & Sale is still on view and will be through Jan. 17. Here you'll find beautiful, functional drinking vessels priced between $28 and $50.
Closer to the Seacoast, Newmarket hosts a quirky shopping experience with the 3rd Annual Holidaze Bizarre, an alternative craft fair this Saturday, Dec. 13, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., in the millspace at Newmarket Mills, Newmarket. More than 30 vendors will sell handmade, recycled, vintage and unconventional unique gifts, including toys, art, clothes records, cassettes, self-published comics/zines, books, knit, crochet, woodwork, toys, sculptures, housewares, etc.
Manchester residents and artists Tony and Kim Luongo recently founded Smile Create Repeat, a small business that sends monthly art supplies to eager learners.
How it works: the Luongos come up with a theme each month. That theme will involve certain tools — colored pencils, ink, watercolor, charcoal, etc.
Subscribers will receive these tools in the mail along with lessons on how to use the items. (A "creativity card" located in the box will contain the lesson, but Tony Luongo has also been putting lessons online; visit smilecreaterepeat.com.)
The subscribers see no age. Some Smile Create Repeat art users are kids, others retired adults. The materials are not flimsy, like what you might find at a dollar store; the Luongos said they take careful measure to either test or research each and every product.
"Every month is a new theme, and for 12 months, we will not repeat the same theme. Some items may be repeated — drawing pencils, paintbrushes — but we will show how to use them in new ways," Kim Luongo said. Recent themes included watercolor, ink, charcoal and pastels.
Tony Luongo is a full-time artist and Kim Luongo went to school for art, so they know their stuff.
"There are craft stores and A.C. Moore, Michael's, but there's no collaboration on how you're actually going to use those items unless you're going to take a class somewhere. We're trying to give people guidance," Kim Luongo said.
They began the business in September. They have their own kids who love using these art products, and Kim Luongo feels there are others looking to give items that help unplug.
"As people get older, they get a lot more distracted by everything electronic and what's going on in their lives. They don't actually stop to look at the beautiful leaves falling to the ground or see the color in the sky. I think we're trying to steer people away from that, to step back and let them create," she said.
As seen in the December 11, 2014 issue of the Hippo.


When the term "CAS client" appears in this manual without further qualification, it refers to the integration components such as the Java CAS Client rather than to the application relying upon (a client of) the CAS server.
CAS uses the many aspects of the Spring Framework; most notably, Spring MVC and Spring Webflow. Spring provides a complete and extensible framework for the core CAS codebase as well as for deployers; it's straightforward to customize or extend CAS behavior by hooking CAS and Spring API extension points. General knowledge of Spring is beneficial to understanding the interplay among some framework components, but it's not strictly required.
CAS is also heavily based on Spring Boot, which allows it to take an opinionated view of the Spring platform and third-party libraries to create a stand-alone web application without the hassle of XML configuration as much as possible. Spring Boot allows CAS to hide much of internal complexity of its components and their configuration and instead provides auto-configuration modules that simply and automatically configure the running application context without much server interference.

Is now the time to pull out of stock market?
Bernanke has investors scared with suggestion money-pumping will end
By Jerome R. Corsi
Published May 24, 2013 at 6:04pm
NEW YORK – All it took to trigger a global stock sell-off was a comment Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke made Wednesday suggesting the Fed would take a look at backing off quantitative easing at one of its "next few meetings."
The near-panic selling set off in global markets by a mere suggestion the Fed might quit pumping hundreds of billions of dollars of liquidity into world financial markets should be a warning sign to retirement investors with IRAs, 401(k)s or other funds invested in stocks.
Is now the time for retirement investors to pull out of stock market investments in anticipation of what increasingly appears to be a massive downward stock market adjustment should the Fed significantly ease off buying U.S. government debt?
This may be a difficult decision for many retirement investors to make, especially after the historic gains registered over the past two years in most IRA and 401(k) funds invested in stocks and bonds.
Should the Fed end or significantly reduce QE3, as is widely anticipated for no later than March 2014, interest rates can be expected to rise in the United States, with the likely consequence of setting off a round of losses not only in the U.S. stock market, but also in the U.S. bond market.
TRENDING: Man dies after being crushed by machine designed to prevent public urination
Savers and investors in or approaching their retirement years are advised to be cautious, given the limited time remaining in typical life cycle expectations in which to recover losses suffered in investment markets.
Rough waters for retirement savings
For cautious retirement investors who cannot afford to take a loss, the question is not necessarily whether the 15,000 mark is the high point of the Dow Jones Industrial Average in the current investment cycle, but whether QE 3 must come to an end, perhaps sooner rather than later.
The safest calculation of cautious retirement investors may be to examine the possibility the current stock market historic highs have been fueled predominately by the massive liquidity pumped into world markets by the Fed since 2009, as opposed to traditional bull markets in which stock market rises have been fueled by gains in economic fundamentals as reflected in strong corporate earnings derived from genuinely strong market demand.
When the Fed pulls out of QE3, panic selling will benefit only those who get out first, most likely the institutional fund managers and professional financial analysts, not typically the individual retirement funds investor.
A long-standing rule of investing is that those who stay in markets to achieve the last possible gains are the ones who may risk taking substantial losses. Individual retirement savings investors holding IRAs, 401(k) plans and other tax-favored retirement instruments, including variable annuities, may be well advised to pull money out of stock and bond investments at this time.
Market gains that individual retirement investors take at this time can be placed in bank CDs or money market funds to preserve gains and wait for a more stable investment environment in which to go back into stock and bond markets.
This is a time when individual retirement savers should seek the advice and counsel of appropriately licensed professional investment advisors with an established track record of success, even in volatile market environments.
Global stock markets plunge
Global markets took Bernanke's seemingly innocuous comments as a signal the Fed was serious about ending its third round of buying billions of dollars monthly of U.S. government debt, including Treasury bonds and housing bonds. The program that is currently designated Quantitative Easing 3, or QE 3, indicating the current debt buying round is the third such effort the Fed has taken since the DJIA hit a new 12-year low of 6,547.05 on March 9, 2009.
The most severe stock market decline occurred in Japan as a "flash crash" caused the Nikkei index to plunge 7.3 percent.
Japanese Stock Market Decline, May 23, 2013 (Source: ZeroHedge.com)
Overnight in the U.S., stock markets in Frankfurt, London, Paris and Milan slumped more than 2 percent.
On the market open in the U.S., the DJIA plunged 127 points, before bullish analysts, including some government officials representing the Obama administration, quietly advised institutional investors the Fed had no immediate plans of ending or significantly backing off QE3.
Obama balloons Fed's holdings of debt
Under Barack Obama, the Federal Reserve has become the world's largest holder of U.S. government debt.
In January 2013, the Federal Reserve revealed that its holdings of U.S. government debt had increased to an all-time record high of nearly $1.7 trillion.
By comparison, when Obama was inaugurated in 2009, the Fed owned a mere $475 billion in U.S. government debt. Since then, the Fed's holdings of U.S. government debt have increased by 257 percent.
The Fed's use of quantitative easing demonstrates it is out of monetary tools, having keep interest rates at or near zero in an attempt to stimulate economic growth for nearly three years.
Market expectations until recently have been that the Fed will attempt to stop before $2 trillion of Treasury debt has been purchased and added to the Fed's balance sheet.
The U.S. Treasury reports that as of this month, total U.S. public debt outstanding is approximately $16.7 trillion; by comparison, total U.S. public debt outstanding at the end of the presidency of George W. Bush was approximately $10 trillion.
According to official estimates by the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis, on Sept. 11, 2012, total U.S. debt exceeded U.S. gross domestic product, or GDP, for the first time since the end of World War II, with U.S. GDP 2012 estimated at $15.6061 trillion, about $440.5 billion less than the $16.0466 in debt that the federal government had accumulated as of that day.
Coincidentally, Sept. 11, 2012, was the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, as well as the day on the U.S. facility in Benghazi, Libya, was attacked by terrorists, resulting in the murder of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans.
The use of quantitative easing as a tool of the Fed to stimulate the economy and reduce unemployment is a novel and untested approach to monetary policy.
QE3 was announced Sept. 13, 2012, in an 11-to-1 vote of the Federal Reserve Board. The Fed decided to launch a $40 billion per month, open-ended purchasing of U.S. Treasury debt instruments and U.S. agency-generated mortgage-backed securities.
On Dec. 12, 2012, the Fed decided to increase the open-ended purchasing of U.S. debt from $40 billion per month to the current level of $85 billion a month.

Four Arrested Following Mission District Stabbing
Anandey Perez-Lemus Angel Chel Dennis Sanchez Miquel Canto Mission District stabbing by Bay City News | February 9, 2015 12:28 pm	| in Crime | 0
Four men were arrested early Sunday morning on suspicion of stabbing a man in San Francisco's Mission District, a police spokeswoman said.
San Francisco police spokeswoman Officer Grace Gatpandan said a group of people were walking out of a restaurant near the intersection of Mission and 19th streets around 2:40 a.m. Sunday when a group of men, allegedly armed with knives and sticks, confronted them.
A fight ensued and a 30-year-old man suffered a laceration to the arm. He was transported to San Francisco General Hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening, Gatpandan said.
Officers arrived at the scene and took four San Francisco men into custody, according to Gatpandan.
Police arrested 36-year-old Angel Chel and 26-year-old Miquel Canto, both on suspicion of three counts of assault with a deadly weapon, battery causing serious bodily injury, making criminal threats, and conspiracy, Gatpandan said.
Anandey Perez-Lemus, 22, and Dennis Sanchez, 20, both were arrested on suspicion of three counts of assault with a deadly weapon and one count of conspiracy, according to Gatpandan.
The motive for the fight remains under investigation.

Fury vs Joshua News Fury vs Wilder 3 tips: Bank on a repeat performance
Fury vs Wilder 3 tips: Bank on a repeat performance
Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3 has been a long time coming, but on Saturday night the two will finally lock horns for the WBC, Ring magazine and lineal world heavyweight titles and we have expert tips and predictions.
There's nothing quite like a big fight week in Las Vegas, a place of hopes and broken dreams.
Deontay Wilder (42-1-1) rolls the dice this weekend at T-Mobile Arena with his career at elite level now very much in the last-chance saloon. Standing in his way is the imposing figure of Tyson Fury (30-0-1). All 6 ft 9 in of him.
While some of the biggest names in the sport, such as Floyd Mayweather Jr and now Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez ensure the deck is always stacked in their favour each time they play, WBC and lineal heavyweight champion Fury is different. 'The Gypsy King' casually sits down at any table in the world knowing he has the cojones and the ring smarts to be victorious regardless of how the cards are dealt.
It may not quite have the feel of Evander Holyfield v Riddick Bowe, less still Muhammad Ali v Joe Frazier, but this weekend's heavyweight trilogy fight between Fury and Wilder is still a must-see event for boxing fans.
A confusing plethora of 'world' titles and a "laissez-faire" attitude to drug cheats are two huge problems facing boxing right now. But perhaps the chief culprit for the noble art's retreat from the mainstream over the past 30 years is the simple sad fact that public demand is rarely met when it comes to promoters making the best fights boxing can possibly make. This fight is a rare exception to that rule, a quality main event complete with a stacked undercard.
The road to Fury vs Wilder 3
But how did we get here? In December 2018 Fury signed to meet a then unbeaten Wilder in Los Angeles. In one of the more memorable heavyweight title fights of recent times, Fury boxed brilliantly against 'The Bronze Bomber', dictating the action for long spells. And but for two knockdowns (one in round 9 and one in round 12) he would have won. Instead, he had to settle for a majority draw on the cards.
If the first fight left us with many unanswered questions, the outcome of the second fight was so conclusive, it is perhaps surprising that Wilder has elected to go again. In February 2020, at the MGM Grand in Vegas, Fury dominated a bewildered 'Bronze Bomber', systematically beating him up before the American's corner mercifully threw in the towel in round seven.
Trainer Mark Breland's reward for rescuing his charge was the sack, amid frankly scandalous accusations of disloyalty, while Wilder has also talked about his water being spiked with muscle relaxers and claimed that Fury's gloves had been tampered with.
If talk is cheap, action is priceless. Wilder has since assembled a new team and new trainer Malik Scott reckons his charge can get the job done inside five rounds this weekend. Scott is a long-time friend of Wilder, but it remains to be seen how much he can improve him at the venerable age of 35.
It's widely accepted that Wilder is one of the hardest heavyweight hitters of all time. If Fury takes his eye off the ball, you cannot rule out a scenario where 'The Bronze Bomber' nails him to the canvas with a big right.
However, Wilder doesn't know how to fight going backward and was all at sea in that last fight against Fury, where he took a sustained and fearful beating. Is he really going to figure out how to fight going backward by hooking up with Scott, a mediocre heavyweight gatekeeper not known for his elusiveness? Unlikely.
There is a school of thought which states Fury simply outboxes the American and just makes sure he doesn't get hit with a bomb. Fury is long and can box. Stylistically he presents a style which Wilder has found hard to fathom over two fights to this point. The pair have shared just under 19 rounds so far, and of those you can say that Wilder has definitely won only two (those being rounds 9 and 12 of their first fight).
Fury vs Wilder 3 keys to victory
However while Fury is definitely a more skilled boxer, he also knows now he can walk Wilder down and hurt him. He has the size but just as importantly now the confidence to know he can do a job on Wilder. The fight game is as much about psychology as it is physiology. Fury has a steely mental toughness. I'm not sure Wilder is made of the same stuff. As 'Big John' Fury – never shy when it comes to making a big fight prediction in a battle involving his son – memorably put it during one of the recent BT Sport preview shows: "He's going to mentally dissolve like butter in front of a fire".
Few professionals ever really come back from the type of beating Wilder took in that second fight. He has nothing to lose and therefore has a puncher's chance, but the pick is for Fury to bully and walk the American down again and force a stoppage inside schedule. Under 7.5 rounds is a shade under even money and looks a play under the circumstances, while 11/4 on Fury winning between rounds 1 – 6 also looks value.
Efe Ajagba vs Frank Sanchez predictions
We also get an intriguing 10-rounder on the undercard between two unbeaten heavyweight prospects. Nigeria's Efe Ajagba (15-0) squares off against quality Cuban Frank Sanchez (18-0). Ajagba is rough round the edges but can fight. His jab is spiteful and he has a hard right hand. He also has a bit of pedigree after winning bronze at the Commonwealth Games, while also representing Nigeria at the Olympics. He has been perfect so far as a pro but was dropped in the third by Iago Kiladze in December 2019, before rallying to stop his opponent in round five.
Sanchez meanwhile reportedly won 214 of his 220 amateur contests. There have been a few Cuban heavyweights in recent years who have oozed class but who have also been unable to stay disciplined after defecting. The word is 'The Cuban Flash' is much more dedicated to his craft than predecessors such as Jorge Luis Gonzalez and Odlanier Solis.
Frank Sanchez with trainer Eddy Reynoso (Ed Mulholland/Matchroom Boxing).
This is a huge opportunity for both men, and Ajagba has a really good straight right. However, I like Sanchez here. He is a very unique heavyweight with great ring IQ. He won't have it all his own way but has the guile and craft to win on points in Sin City.
As for the main event, this is Fury's chance to prove he is the boss of bosses in boxing's marquee division and expect him to grab it with both hands by demolishing Wilder inside the first six rounds.
Predictions and Tips
Fury to win in rounds 1 – 6 at 11/4 (Paddy Power)
Fury vs Wilder 3 to last under 7.5 rounds at 19/20 (Betway)
Frank Sanchez to beat Efe Ajagba by Decision or Technical Decision at 11/5 (William Hill)

What is a modified Pringle maneuver?
How is Pringle maneuver performed?
How do you do Perihepatic packing?
What is clamped in the Pringle maneuver?
When is Pringle maneuver used?
What is clamped during the Pringle maneuver?
What is Hematobilia?
Background: The Pringle maneuver is widely used in liver surgery to reduce intraoperative blood loss. However, total vascular inflow occlusion is frequently associated with ischemia reperfusion injury leading to postoperative liver dysfunction and impaired recovery.
The surgeon makes one or more incisions in the stomach depending on the type of surgery. The surgeon finds the hepatic vascular pedicle, lifts it up and applies the clamp. Pringle maneuver may be applied intermittently in 10- to 20-minute cycles, allowing five minutes of blood flow (reperfusion) in between.
Which of the following structure is compressed during Pringle maneuver?
In 1908, Pringle first described a technique to minimize blood loss during hepatic surgery by clamping the vascular pedicle (now commonly known as the Pringle maneuver).
The technique of perihepatic packing involves manual closure or approximation of the parenchyma, followed by the consecutive placing of dry abdominal packs around the liver and straight over the injury in an attempt to provide tamponade to a bleeding site.
The Pringle manouvre consists in clamping the hepatoduodenal ligament (the free border of the lesser omentum). This interrupts the flow of blood through the hepatic artery and the portal vein, which helps to control bleeding from the liver. The common bile duct is also temporarily closed during this procedure.
How long can you do Pringle maneuver?
Conclusion The upper limit of tolerance of the liver to intermittent Pringle maneuver is 120 minutes.
Uses. The Pringle manoeuvre is used during liver surgery and in some cases of severe liver trauma to minimize blood loss. For short durations of use, it is very effective at reducing intraoperative blood loss. The Pringle manoeuvre is applied during closure of a vena cava injury when an atriocaval shunt is placed.
The Pringle manoeuvre is a surgical technique used in some abdominal operations. The hepatoduodenal ligament is clamped either with a surgical tool called a haemostat or by hand. This limits blood flow through the hepatic artery and the portal vein, controlling bleeding from the liver.
What is a liver injury?
Acute liver failure is loss of liver function that occurs rapidly — in days or weeks — usually in a person who has no preexisting liver disease. It's most commonly caused by a hepatitis virus or drugs, such as acetaminophen. Acute liver failure is less common than chronic liver failure, which develops more slowly.
Hemobilia refers to bleeding from and/or into the biliary tract and is an uncommon but important cause of gastrointestinal hemorrhage.

Author of Haddad, 2001 Antidepressant discontinuation syndromes.
Dr. Michelle Barwell, Pittsburgh PA She's a little tough to get an appt with ~ 3 month wait, but for me she was worth it. Immediately recognized my symptoms as withdrawal or discontinuation syndrome and provided options for coping. She did caution me that without the Effexor onboard I was very likely to have a recurrence of depression given my history, but did not push me to commit to staying on the med. What she offered as a taper schedule is a little more aggressive than what is advocated here but I had the firm impression that should I want to move more slowly she would be supportive of that.
Hope, please see the list in the first post in this topic.
His office is also accepting patients for tapering of antidepressants and antipsychotics as well as benzos.
We do, at times, work with clients to reduce and in some cases eliminate medications and yes, I agree, it is a very slow process in most cases with a variety of qualitative twists and turns in the "client's" experience of their mind state. We are very slow with this process in general.
For outpatient services, contact to see if they can recommend anyone in your area.
Does anyone know a GOOD tapering doctor in Honolulu?
ADMIN NOTE Members have had difficulty with Dr. Ahmad. He is not recommended for tapering anymore.
I've corresponded with Dr. Ahmad, who seems very interested in gradual tapering techniques. He knows about our Tapering forum. If you see him, you can discuss the tapering methods you find there.
Cooper Riis was just discussed on Mad In America (discussion on Whitaker's blog) as drugging against will and using restraints. They have many positive features, but when questioned, will state that if circumstances call for it, they will drug against patients will, and they will use restraints, if situation calls for it.
That, coupled with their high monthly fee, should give anyone pause.
If a doctor understands how to taper and is open to working with patients, that's all that's needed for this list. We cannot require ideological purity as well.
ok just thought the chance of being redrugged would be less if there was less pharma money in the doctors hand... I could be wrong of course was just what I was thinking at the time of posting may well be wrong for myself I would check not saying you should check to put their names here saying I would check before I went to see one on the list. A personal choice.
Australia Medicare will pay for part of his fee.
Dr. Purssey has also organized a group of doctors to assist with tapering off psychiatric drugs. More to come about that.
I emailed David Pickar in Cabin John, MD. He said he didn't know how he got on the forum and that he wasn't able to help me. Also noted that ssri withdrawal is a "nuisance."
He was recommended by Dr. Sally Satel. Oh well, struck off the list.
Dr. Timimi is a prolific writer about reforming psychiatry and founder of the International Critical Psychiatry Network.
Dr. Lieberman responded to my e-mail right away. With a subspecialty in addiction medicine, he is very interested in helping people get off drugs safely and comfortably. He seems like a very considerate doctor.
He does not take insurance.
The telephone number here is in-correct.
At the Integrative Medicine Center, we have helped a few people taper off psychiatric medications using slow tapers along with Integrative support. Modalities such as acupuncture and Therapeutic Touch will help and we usually work with a holistic psychotherapist to support the patient during the taper to support the person during this difficult process.
As you discussed, withdrawal symptoms can last for years .... In these situations, support via an Integrative approach is very useful as it will help a person to manage these symptoms and can often help to improve them.
I am not aware of any specialists in the area that specialize in tapering although I am familiar with other NPs that will work with patients through this long and difficult process. As you know, this is hard work for the person coming off the medication and providers need to remain very supportive and willing to make very small changes over a long period of time, based on the person's response.
From a member, who recommends this doctor for tapering benzos ONLY. He does not believe the other drugs have withdrawal issues.
Staffing answering phones begins at 9 am until 12 noon, then 2pm until 5pm.
Staff is limited during other times.
This doctor also returns his own calls, if he is available, within 24hrs if not sooner.
Call to see if he accepts your insurance plan.
I just wanted to say that Jon Keyes is wonderful and very knowledgeable. He has helped me through some very tough times. Does not prescribe but has recommended in the Portland Oregon area Amenda Clinic for tapering, prescrubing, nutrition etc. Jon's website is Hearthside Healing. Very good counselor.
Jon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), and a certified Health Coach. He is also knowledgeable about herbal therapies and works with an acupuncturist.
Dr. Garodia has moved to Medford, Oregon, so this contact information is now out of date.
Do you have new contact info for her?
If you can edit the post Daniel Johnson, MD, Asheville, North Carolina currently works in Forest City, NC and is in patient only according to the office (828) 248-1117. I tracked down where he works and was rather disappointed. They would not give me his personal phone number. Most in the South East are not accepting patients currently which I called unfortunately but I know this may change for others.
Please check him out at http://danieljohnsonmd.com/ if you live in the NC/TN area.
here is an excerpt from the article, very encouraging.
In 2011, The New York Review of Books published a two-part essay by Dr. Marcia Angell that would have a profound impact on Asheville psychiatrist Daniel Johnson and others who are championing new approaches to treating mental illness. Angell, a harsh critic of the pharmaceutical industry who's now a lecturer in Harvard Medical School's Division of Medical Ethics, reviewed three books deploring the use of psychiatric drugs.
Two of those books proved particularly influential for Johnson. Both Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness by journalist Robert Whitaker and The Emperor's New Drugs: Exploding the Antidepressant Myth by psychologist Irving Kirsch reject the theory that chemical imbalances in the brain cause mental illness, challenging the usefulness of the drugs routinely prescribed to treat such problems.
Many in the field would disagree with that position. And while Johnson says he's gotten some support from colleagues, psychiatrists who help patients safely withdraw from psychiatric drugs are few and far between.
With Johnson's help, she's been off psychiatric meds for more than a year. "I feel so much better," she reports.
What started Johnson on his revisionist journey was an essay by Dr. Marcia Angell, a former editor at The New England Journal of Medicine, that reviewed three books condemning the use of drugs to treat mental illness.
Around the same time, Johnson decided he was tired of fighting with insurance companies, so he stopped accepting insurance altogether. That, he says, forced him to listen more closely to what his patients were actually saying rather than trying to align what they told him with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders so he could get reimbursed for services rendered.
To safely taper patients off their medications, Johnson works with two compounding pharmacies in town, which create successively smaller doses of the drugs, rather than the standard dosages available from pharmaceutical companies. Depending on the number of meds involved, the process may take a couple of years. In addition, individual and group therapy help patients process what they're feeling.
Once they're weaned from the drugs, says Johnson, they can get a clear view of their inner self and are better able to do grounded bodywork with some of the many alternative and complementary medicine practitioners in town.
I will be seeing this doctor in July of 2014. I will keep you informed in my introduction thread. God Bless you all on your journey.
Added to our list in #1.
Danish psychiatrist Lisbeth Kortegaard is opening a clinic September 1st, aimed at helping children and youths taper off psychoactive medicine. She confirmed this via email.
ADMIN NOTE: Dr. Kortegaard is currently practicing in Hoejbjerg, Denmark.
cross debra London off the list for PA, she's moving to CA!!!
Do you know what part of CA?
I can recommend Dr Paul Conti in Portland, Oregon. He is a great psychiatrist , (Harvard and Stanford), and a wonderful human being. He founded Hazelden, for rehab, and just sold it to the Betty Ford Clinic, and has his own new practice, Pacific Premier Group, in Portland, on SW Maine. Call his assistant, Amber, on 503 720 4359, for an appointment. He may negotiate a fee if you have no insurance.
Thank you very much, Hexal and Abriton.
Too bad Debra London is moving from Pennsylvania, ANH. I hope we don't lose track of her.
I'm a new member and wanted to share a doctor that I'd recommend. His name is Henry Emmons. He wrote the books Chemistry of Calm and Chemistry of Joy. He is based out of MN but sees patients for phone/Skype appointments. He's helping me with my taper & natural ways to deal with anxiety. He also works with a dietician, Carolyn Denton, who helped me with GI issues and an elimination diet. Their practice is called Partners in Resilience.
I just changed shrinks. My new one is part of a so called alternative medicine psych care group. However, the guy I see just wants me to go back on my medication or take another instead of the panic induced by the ct discontinuing.
I made it clear to him when I first saw him that I wanted off these meds. I had been on invega for three weeks then n had cut my wellbutrin dosage by 2/3. I know I'm not a md but when you want to be free of these meds, at least I am willing to deal with the w/d. I am going to look for another doc.

LA mayor to Trump: Let's fix homeless crisis
by: MICHAEL R. BLOOD, Associated Press
In this Monday, July 1, 2019 photo, a homeless woman moves her belongings in early morning from a street near Los Angeles City Hall (in the background) as crews prepared to clean the area. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti wants President Donald Trump to visit the city and work with him on the homeless crisis. The Democratic mayor made the public invitation during a radio interview Tuesday, July 2, 2109, after the Republican president called the homeless crisis in Los Angeles, San Francisco and other big cities disgraceful and threatened to intercede. (AP Photo/Richard Vogel)
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti proposed forming a politically unlikely partnership Tuesday to take on the city's homeless crisis: with President Donald Trump.
The Democratic mayor whose downtown streets have become home to filthy, drug-infested encampments for thousands of people issued a public invitation for the president to walk the streets with him and see firsthand the suffering and desperation.
The growing homeless crisis in L.A. and across the nation "is not his fault, nor is it my fault, it is something that has been decades in the making," the mayor said, noting that both Democratic and Republican cities have too many people on the streets.
"I welcome federal involvement in helping us solve homelessness," the mayor said.
Garcetti's offer for a bipartisan alliance came a day after the president called the homeless crisis in Los Angeles, San Francisco and other big cities disgraceful and threatened to intercede, although he provided no specifics on steps he was considering.
While Garcetti said he wanted cooperation with Washington, Trump faulted the "liberal establishment" for the problem in an interview with Fox News.
"We may do something to get that whole thing cleaned up. It's inappropriate," Trump said.
The mayor avoided a combative tone, telling KNX Radio in Los Angeles that he's not interested in scoring political points and wants to work with Trump to save lives. It's a good day when the president talks about homelessness, he said.
But the mayor did take issue with the president on a few points.
Trump said in the interview that the surge in homelessness and encampments started two years ago. However, problems with thehomeless population and L.A.'s notorious Skid Row neighborhood extend into the last century.
While not solely attacking Trump, he said cuts in federal housing funds also contribute to the homelessness spiral.
"We know liberalism didn't cause homelessness, any more than conservatism causes homelessness," Garcetti said. "Poverty and mental health and trauma and high rent cause homelessness."
Trump would make an unlikely pairing with the mayor, who comes from a heavily Democratic state recognized as the center of the so-called Trump resistance. Trump lost California to Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election by over 4 million votes.
The president's remarks in the midst of his re-election campaign echo familiar themes — pointing a finger at Democrats he blames for opposing his agenda on immigration and other national problems.
He depicted Democratic-led San Francisco and Los Angeles as dysfunctional, politically liberal cities, adding, "This is what I'm fighting."
On Monday, Trump lashed out at state Democrats who want to fund health care for some adults who entered the U.S. illegally. "It's very unfair to our citizens and we're going to stop it, but we may need an election to stop it," the president said in Washington.
Last year, when Garcetti was considering a possible White House run, he said Trump had done "plenty of racist things" to divide the nation while failing to deliver on health care reform and other promises.
Garcetti was elected promising to focus on paving streets and other government basics. But homelessness has come to overshadow his early agenda, and he's facing a possible recall election over public unrest over the spreading problem.
Figures released in June showed a 16% jump in Los Angeles' homeless population over the last year, pegging it at 36,300 — the size of a small city. The jump came after the mayor helped convince voters in 2016 to borrow $1.2 billion to construct housing for the homeless.
Garcetti used a tougher tone in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, calling Trump's comments "political cheap shots."
Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom told reporters in Emeryville that Trump neglected to mention the thriving economies in Los Angeles and San Francisco, but added that homelessness is a major problem that is growing worse.

"For You are our glory and joy…" – 1 Thess. 2:20 It's Christmas time! There is certainly joy and happiness this time of year! I prefer joy. Happiness rises quickly like a flash flood in the Ozarks and can disappear just as fast, but joy lasts. It sticks around. It has deeper roots. And it's absolutely wonderful. In it are the necessary ingredients that produce contentment, peace and security. If the joy is pure and God-produced, it is pure joy. Christmas is the season of joy. We sing, "Joy to the World" over and over, and we should. Anything less downplays the context of Christmas. We were lost and blind and sunk. But God stepped in and provided us a way. He sent His Son Jesus to be born, first, then sent Him to die for our sin. He made a way that we might be reconciled to Him. Because of His amazing grace, He made peace with us. He created the very essence of pure joy. The world provides a different kind of joy but it's a counterfeit. It's not joy at all. It's comparison and sorrow and despondency. Of course, the world doesn't like this season of joy. It's like a neighbor bragging about their new automobile. That neighbor has something I don't have, but I want. When pure joy is exposed, the world's is envious because it doesn't possess that kind of joy, and it wants it badly. It won't get excited about pure joy. But it desires it greatly. And it can have it. In a season built for pure joy - envy, malice, and jealousy, instead, rule the day. I know those words are unpleasant but they're true. Notice they are heart words. Most of these struggles occur at a heart level and that's where the damage occurs. Joy works in the same way. The source of pure joy is in our hearts. It's a by-product of God Himself via the Holy Spirit. It works from the inside out. It is intertwined with love. It allows us to "rejoice with the truth," if we make that choice. Experience joy this Christmas season. That doesn't mean we don't experience some sorrow as well. We miss loved ones who have passed on. A lot of pain is exposed during this Thanksgiving and Christmas season. We grieve and old feelings are stirred up again. But pure joy can shine through. It doesn't neglect the sorrow but chooses to grasp the joy. In "A Christmas Carol," nothing really changed in the life of Scrooge. The difficulties still remained. But he chose to see life differently. "Choose joy", someone said. "Well, that won't work in my world," was the reply. "Then change your world," he responded. What does it mean to "change our world?" It means we choose to see the bigger picture. It means we don't choose to live "under our circumstances" but rather above them. It means we yield to a loving God who is our rock and our fortress, 24-7. So, Merry Christmas. Joy to the World, the Lord is come!

STEVEN SPIELBERG for "Schindler's List", Robert Altman for "Short Cuts", Jane Campion for "The Piano", James Ivory for "The Remains of the Day", Jim Sheridan for "In the Name of the Father"
Finally, after many years of dubious treatment and neglect, producer/director Steven Spielberg (with his sixth directorial and seventh Best Picture nomination) won the Best Picture Oscar (and Best Director Oscar) for his monumental, mature masterpiece Schindler's List. [Note: The film - although mostly black and white - contained a few segments in color, thereby disqualifying it from being the most recent completely black and white film to win the Best Picture Oscar. That honor still applied to The Apartment (1960).]
Spielberg won his first competitive Oscars for the powerful, documentary-style, 'historical' dramatization of Thomas Keneally's 1982 book (from a screenplay by Steven Zaillian) about the Third Reich's Holocaust, and the role of one complex man named Schindler (Liam Neeson) - a failed German industrialist and Catholic war profiteer (a pots-and-pans factory owner), who struggled to save more than a thousand Polish-Jewish lives in Nazi-occupied Poland with the assistance of Jewish accountant and confidante Itzhak Stern (Ben Kingsley).
The three hour-long, small-budget ($23 million) film had twelve nominations and seven overall wins (Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography for Janusz Kaminski, Best Film Editing, and Best Original Score - by John Williams). Surprisingly, the film won no acting awards. Spielberg also triumphed in the same year with three technical-achievement awards for his box-office hit Jurassic Park: Best Sound, Best Sound Effects Editing, and Best Visual Effects.
Four of the five Best Picture nominees were serious-minded films. The one exception was the box-office hit and action thriller The Fugitive (with seven nominations and one win - Best Supporting Actor) - the story of the relentless tracking of a convicted innocent man in director Andrew Davis' re-make of the 60's long-running TV series - it was notable as the first - and only - Best Picture nominee remake to be based on a popular TV series.
The other three Best Picture nominees included:
the strange love story between a mute-by-choice 19th century Scotswoman (and pianist) and a New Zealand neighbor in producer/writer/director Jane Campion's offbeat film The Piano (with eight nominations and three wins - Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Screenplay)
director Jim Sheridan's political-injustice drama about an accused IRA bomber who is wrongfully imprisoned in In the Name of the Father (with seven nominations and no wins)
the Merchant Ivory period drama of unrequited love in director James Ivory's film The Remains of the Day (with eight nominations and no wins)
Andrew Davis, the director of Best Picture-nominated The Fugitive, failed to receive a nomination in the Best Director category. Davis' place was filled by director Robert Altman for his three-hour long film, a collage of Raymond Carver's short stories, Short Cuts (the film's sole nomination). [This was Altman's second consecutive Best Director nomination for a film that did not receive a Best Picture nomination - The Player (1992) also received a Best Director nomination without a Best Picture nod. And it was also Altman's fourth unsuccessful bid to be Best Director.]
Jane Campion's nomination as Best Director for The Piano made her only the second woman in Oscar history to be nominated in the category. Campion is the first (and only) woman to have directed a Best Picture nominee AND to have received a Best Director nomination for herself. [The first woman ever nominated for Best Director was Lina Wertmuller for Seven Beauties (1976), seventeen years earlier.] Although Campion lost the Best Director Oscar, she won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
Half of all the male acting nominations went to British performers (Day-Lewis, Hopkins, Neeson, Postlethwaite, and Fiennes). All four of the year's acting winners were first-time Academy Award winners.
The Best Actor Oscar was presented to Tom Hanks (with his second nomination and first Oscar win), best-known for comedic roles, for his serious performance as AIDS-infected corporate attorney and victim Andrew Beckett, fired from his job and fighting homophobia in director Jonathan Demme's bold adaptation of Ron Nyswaner's screenplay for Philadelphia (with five nominations and two wins - the second Oscar was for Bruce Springsteen's Best Song "Streets of Philadelphia"). In the same year, Hanks starred in Nora Ephron's very popular romantic comedy Sleepless in Seattle, a remake of An Affair to Remember (1957) - with two unsuccessful nominations for Best Original Screenplay and Best Original Song. [Note: During Hanks' acceptance speech, he paid homage to his high school gay teacher Rawley Farnsworth - the situation was later used as the basis for the comedy In & Out (1997) in which a passionate Oscar winner during his acceptance speech inadvertently outed a teacher.]
The other Best Actor nominees were:
Daniel Day-Lewis (with his second nomination) as wrongly-imprisoned IRA terrorist and political prisoner Gerald Conlon in In the Name of the Father
Laurence Fishburne (with his first nomination) as abusive wife-beater Ike Turner in What's Love Got to Do With It (with two nominations and no wins); Fishburne, whose nomination was bumped up to a lead one, performed his own songs in the film
Anthony Hopkins (with his second nomination) as faithful, yet repressed head butler Stevens in The Remains of the Day
N. Ireland native Liam Neeson (with his first nomination) as conscience-stricken German industrialist Oskar Schindler, the savior of a thousand Polish Jews in Schindler's List
Among the female acting nominees, two were simultaneously nominated in the lead and supporting acting categories in 1993 - Holly Hunter and Emma Thompson. They were the first nominees to compete against each other in both the Actress and Supporting Actress categories, in the same year:
[Because Emma Thompson lost both Oscars in the Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress categories, she shares the same dubious 'achievement' with actress Sigourney Weaver - who was also unsuccessful with her nominations for Gorillas in the Mist (1988) and Working Girl (1988). Although Thompson and Weaver both lost, usually a double-nominee wins one of the categories.]
Holly Hunter (with her second/third nominations and first Oscar win) won the Best Actress Oscar for her dialogue-less performance as the 19th century mute (since childhood) and mail-order bride Ada McGrath - the erotic, Scottish woman and gifted pianist in The Piano. [This was another instance in which an award was given for an actress' non-speaking role, i.e., Jane Wyman in Johnny Belinda (1948), Patty Duke in The Miracle Worker (1962), Marlee Matlin in Children of a Lesser God (1986).]
The other four Best Actress nominees were:
Angela Bassett (with her first nomination) as abused rock singer Tina Turner in What's Love Got to Do With It
Stockard Channing (with her first nomination) as privileged Fifth Avenue wife Ouisa Kittredge in director Fred Schepisi's satirical comedy/drama of race and class, Six Degrees of Separation (the film's sole nomination)
Emma Thompson (with her second - or third nomination) as housekeeper Miss Kenton in The Remains of the Day
Debra Winger (with her third unsuccessful nomination) as Joy Gresham, the forthright American fan/poet and romantic lover of Oxford author/lecturer C. S. Lewis in director Richard Attenborough's exquisite melodrama, Shadowlands (with only two nominations, also Best Adapted Screenplay - and no wins)
The Best Supporting Actor Oscar was won by Tommy Lee Jones (with his second nomination and first Oscar win) for his performance as determined and relentless, laconic Deputy U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard who tracks fugitive Harrison Ford in the exciting chase film The Fugitive. Many felt the award should have gone to Ralph Fiennes instead.
The other four Best Supporting Actor nominees in the category were:
nineteen year-old (pre-Titanic) Leonardo DiCaprio (with his first nomination) as co-star Johnny Depp's impaired, mentally-challenged teenage brother Arnie Grape in director Lasse Hallstrom's What's Eating Gilbert Grape (the film's sole nomination)
Ralph Fiennes (with his first nomination) as the merciless and vicious Nazi labor camp commander Amon Goeth in Plaszow in Schindler's List
John Malkovich (with his second nomination) as former CIA agent and cold-blooded Presidential assassin Mitch Leary in director Wolfgang Petersen's thriller In the Line of Fire (with three nominations and no wins)
Pete Postlethwaite (with his first nomination) as Guiseppe Conlon, the father of wrongly-imprisoned co-star Daniel Day-Lewis in In the Name of the Father
The unexpected winner of the Best Supporting Actress Oscar was 11 year-old Anna Paquin for her R-rated film role as co-star (and competitive nominee) Holly Hunter's illegitimate daughter Flora in The Piano. [Paquin's Oscar, in her debut film, made her the second youngest competitive Oscar winner, second to 10 year-old Tatum O'Neal who won the Oscar twenty years earlier for Paper Moon (1973). Paquin also became the first New Zealander to receive an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.]
The other Best Supporting Actress nominees included:
Holly Hunter (with her second - or third nomination) as tough, bleach-blonde secretary Tammy Hemphill in producer/director Sydney Pollack's thriller based on John Grisham's best-selling novel about a corrupted law firm, The Firm (with two nominations and no wins)
Brooklyn-born Puerto Rican Rosie Perez (with her first nomination) as co-star Jeff Bridges' fellow airplane crash survivor and guilt-stricken Hispanic mother Carla Rodrigo in director Peter Weir's Fearless (the film's sole nomination)
Winona Ryder (with her first nomination and the favored nominee) as May Welland - the emotionally-proper fiancee of co-star Daniel Day-Lewis in director Martin Scorsese's film adaptation of Edith Wharton's novel The Age of Innocence (with five nominations and one win - Best Costume Design)

Six-time Best Actress nominee (in 1949, 1953, 1956-1958, and 1960) and win-less Deborah Kerr received an Honorary award during the ceremonies, "in appreciation for a full career's worth of elegant and beautifully-crafted performances." She had appeared in some of cinema's greatest films, including Black Narcissus (1947), I See A Dark Stranger (1947), Edward, My Son (1949), The Prisoner of Zenda (1952), From Here to Eternity (1953), The King and I (1956), Tea and Sympathy (1956), Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison (1957), Separate Tables (1958), The Night of the Iguana (1964), and The Arrangement (1969).
Oscar Snubs and Omissions:
Brad Pitt was un-nominated for his performance as terrifying, homicidal serial killer Early Grayce in Kalifornia, nor was Val Kilmer as philosophical, ravaged Doc Holliday in Tombstone, nor was Ben Kingsley as Schindler's Jewish accountant in Schindler's List, nor was Debra Winger as Arliss Howard's wife Vida in a romantic triangle in the pyrokinetic, incendiary Wilder Napalm.
Tim Burton's offbeat, stop-action animated musical The Nightmare Before Christmas was nominated (and lost) for only one award: Best Visual Effects, but was ignored for Danny Elfman's original musical score, and for the songs in its soundtrack (there were about a dozen songs in its 74 minutes). Unexpectedly, there were no nominations for Wayne Wang's mother-daughter stories (adapted from Amy Tan's novel) in The Joy Luck Club.
Juliette Binoche was denied a nomination as grieving wife Julie Vignon de Courcy in the first film of director Krzysztof Kieslowski's three-color trilogy, Three Colors: Blue (Fr.) (aka Trois Couleurs: Bleu).
Denzel Washington was denied an acting nomination for his performance as black, ambulance-chasing defense lawyer Joe Miller (opposite Best Actor-winning Tom Hanks) in Philadelphia, as was Jeff Bridges for his role as post-traumatic stress disorder victim Max Klein in Weir's Fearless, and Arnold Schwarzenegger as fictional action hero film character Sgt. Jack Slater (and himself) in Last Action Hero. Although nominated for Remains of the Day, Anthony Hopkins should also have been nominated for his role as Christian novelist C.S. Lewis in Shadowlands (a film mostly neglected by the Academy). And Matthew McConaughey was un-nominated for his memorable performance as the seasoned suitor named Wooderson of Texas high school girls in Dazed and Confused.
An emerging romantic comedy masterpiece, Groundhog Day, struck out for Oscar nominations. There was no recognition for director/screenwriter Harold Ramis, or for actor Bill Murray's superb characterization as TV weatherman Phil who was forced to repeat the same day over and over again in an endless loop, and (supporting) actress Andie MacDowell as TV producer Rita (Phil's love interest). Composer John Williams' musical score for Jurassic Park was also not nominated.


Today is the first Sunday in the season of Lent.
before he begins his ministry.
The Fountain thirsts, the Bread is hungry here.
He feels the famine of the ones who lose.
He starves for those whom we have forced to starve.
He chooses now for those who can not choose.
He is the staff and sustenance of life.
He lives for all from one Sustaining Word.
His love still breaks and pierces like a knife.
In this season of Lent, let us pray together as a community.
and we are weak, we are fearful.
our God in community, holy in One.
How can we place ourselves in a state of dependency this season of Lent?
How can we use our resources to serve others instead of serving ourselves?
Let us close with a benediction.
is yours, today and always.


Ana Gasteyer -- the former "Saturday Night Live" cast member who originated the role of Elphaba in the Chicago production of "Wicked" -- is coming back to Chicago this fall.
Gasteyer will star in Gary Griffin's upcoming production of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's "Passion" at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater. The cast also will include Kathy Voytko -- the actress who understudied Stephanie Block in "The Pirate Queen" on Broadway and found herself frequently on stage playing Grace O'Malley.
All in all, this is shaping up as a very high-profile little show. Sets are by Eugene Lee and costumes by Paul Tazewell, who recently designed "The Color Purple" on Broadway. Given the small size of the theater, demand for tickets is likely to be high.
"Passion" is slated to open in October in the Upstairs theater at Chicago Shakespeare on Navy Pier.

University Of Arkansas Sex Tape: Controversial Video Allegedly Shows Professor Having Sex With Student In Classroom, But School Officials Deny Claims
Nathan Francis
A sex tape allegedly showing a University of Arkansas professor and a student in a compromising position has made the rounds online, but the video may not be what it seems to be.
Early this week, several websites reported on a video claiming to show a popular professor and a student having sex inside of a classroom. Word reportedly also circulated around the campus in Fayetteville, but there was no confirmation on whether the University of Arkansas sex tape was legitimate.
It turns out that the story may (mostly) be false. While there is allegedly a video showing two people having sex on the campus of the University of Arkansas, and possibly even inside a classroom, the professor named in the reports may not be part of it.

The Arkansas Traveler posted an update on Tuesday citing school officials who denied that the video, which was by that point making the rounds on Twitter, showed a University of Arkansas professor having sex with a student.
The report was picked up by the college blog, COED.
"After receiving a still shot of the video, officials confirmed the person in the video is not the former professor [whose name is not being shared], said Anna Zajicek-Wagemann, the UA chair of the sociology and criminal justice department.
"[The professor] left his job at the criminal justice department voluntarily to pursue a career at a police department in another state and was on good terms with the university at the time, said Steve Voorhies, the manager of media relations for University Relations.
"[The professor in question] left the UofA in the summer of 2014, Voorhies said."
The report noted that there were rumors that the professor may have been fired recently, possibly in response to the video. But Voorhies again denied those claims.
"We don't know where these claims are coming from," Voorhies said. "The sex video is of somebody, but not a former faculty member, that we know of."
The University of Arkansas sex tape scandal comes a few months after another college hit the internet. Back in October, a video circulated claiming to show pledges at the University of Alabama's Alpha Tau Omega fraternity forced to perform oral sex on a stripper while dozens of half-naked frat brothers cheered him on.
Though fraternity officials later clarified that no one was coerced, the national Alpha Tau Omega organization revoked the Indiana University chapter's charter within 24 hours of the video hitting the internet, the Associated Press reported.
"The video is highly offensive and is antithetical to the values of Alpha Tau Omega," said Wynn Smiley, national chief executive officer for Alpha Tau Omega.
IndyStar reported that some students were happy to see the fraternity shut down, saying it had a long reputation for bad behavior on campus.
" 'About time. See ya guys' one student shouted from a passing vehicle on Third Street. Another honked a car horn in excitement and waved to frat members gathered on the front porch.
"Among the students witnessing the scrubbing of Alpha Tau Omega from the IU-Bloomington campus was Jordan Haas, a junior from Southern Indiana who clenched his jaw and shook his head as he thought of the fraternity's recent troubles.
" 'It's just so out of control and awful,' Haas said. 'But I'm not surprised.' "

About the guest instructors
Sheila Daube
Sheila Daube has been part of Art on 30th, and Kate Ashton, for ten years. People have grown accustomed to her face.
Roberta Dyer
Roberta Dyer is a Signature Member of the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies, The International Society of Acrylic Painters, and The San Diego Watercolor Society. She has received numerous awards in a variety of venues. She has served as a juror for competitive shows and has demonstrated and led painting groups for several years. Roberta is the past Director of the International Exhibition for the San Diego Watercolor Society and has served as president of that same organization. Roberta's art is best described as expressive, whether figurative or abstract. She uses a combination of bold color and mixed media techniques to present her subjects in unusual ways.
Therese Cipiti Herron
One word to describe Therese is curious. She began her art studies at Cleveland State perusing a nursing degree, but drawing and painting never ceased. Her work is based on autobiographical references and she presents them in a non-sequential relationship so thoughts and ideas are experienced rather than through a narrative framework. She is known for her loosely sketched work with dialogues and imagery that present themselves intuitively. Therese's paintings have been published in books and magazines as well as inclusion in group and solo shows. She indulges daily in her art, husband, and two German Shorthair Pointers.
Kristen Ide
Kristen is a full-time, award-winning abstract expressionism artist and certified art instructor in San Diego, California. She studied Art Education at Middle Tennessee State University because it seemed to be the most natural path: she loved art and she loved helping others. Currently, Kristen works out of her studio at Art on 30th. She started creating ever since she could hold a pencil in her hand and has been painting since 2002, from oils to watercolors to acrylics.
Her work is on display at Kelsey Michaels Fine Art in Laguna Beach, CA and Ashton Gallery in San Diego, CA. Kristen's abstracts have been selected and featured on the homepage of online galleries Saatchi, Artfinder, and Zatista, including "Ones to Watch 2020" on Artfinder. She has been juried into prestigious local, regional, and national exhibits in California, Washington, and Washington D.C.
Brenda York
As far back as I can remember, I have drawn and painted faces. In fact, there is much evidence pointing to the fact that I spent an inordinate amount of time drawing Sister Mary Francis in 3rd Grade instead of paying attention in math class. But recently, I've been more interested in deconstructing the architecture of the face to see how far I can abstract it and still capture the intangible human qualities. I am drawn to rich, vibrant color and a whimsical, narrative approach to painting. My characters are quirky people painted with a sense of sophistication. The backgrounds of my paintings are typically thick, saturated pigment applied with a palette knife. I then draw back into the paint with symbols and words adding a linear and textural quality to the surface. I sometimes even include those elusive math symbols. Sister Mary Francis would be proud.
Ellen Dieter
Dieter began her studies at the Cooper School of Art and the Cleveland Institute of Art. Later, her artistic passion carried her to Paris where she studied at L'Ecole des Arts Appliqués. During the next ten years, Dieter's work was successfully shown at several solo and group shows in Paris and its suburbs. In 2007, Dieter recommitted herself to her art and travels between her two studios in San Diego and Honolulu, painting her way through life. Dieter's paintings evoke a unique and extraordinary fusion of skill and artistic abandon, while her organic compositions capture the ephemeral vitality of modern life. Ellen has earned multiple awards in painting, and was honored to have been invited as an artist in residence at the Alexander Salazar Fine Arts Gallery of San Diego. Cedar Street Galleries of Honolulu, HI offered Dieter her a similar experience in Hawaii along with her first Hawaiian solo exhibition, another defining moment for her as she continues exploring the rich Hawaiian culture.
Lisa Bebi
Lisa Bebi studied fine art at SDSU and abroad at the Academy of London. Her work has been featured in many local magazines and recently was considered the "Top 50 Artists To Watch" by the San Diego Contemporary Art Museum, Mingei International, and a national publication. Lisa has received numerous awards locally, regionally, and nationally and has exhibited her work in group and solo shows over the past 15 years. Lisa's painting is like jazz fusion—not so much for brushstroke work but because of the complex layers of seemingly unrelated stuff that somehow tie together. Speedy looking and details that are described more in the subject matter rather than tight brushstrokes. Recently, Lisa became one of Golden Acrylics' prestigious 138 certified artist instructors.
Liz Jardine
If you have shopped in Pottery Barn, Crate and Barrel, World Market, Target etc., you have probably already seen Liz Jardine's artwork. She is an internationally recognized professional artist. She works full time as an artist (with two assistants) in the architecturally prominent Cable Building on 7th Avenue. Jardine attended school in New York at the State University of New York Buffalo with a design degree in 2-dimensional painting. She learned the most by painting professionally for an Arizona-based atelier, The Phoenix Art Group, where she was the Art Director for 10 years. Come grow with this amazing instructor!
"a great community to find my own artistic expression while learning techniques to enhance my work."

"Turmoil to Triumph: Book One" from Christian Faith Publishing author Joan Tardieu Mason is a heartwarming story of Ana, a surgical technician who moves away from home and her disabled sister to start a new life and a new job in another state's local hospital operating room, accompanied only by her Newfoundland, Sophie. This life-changing move brings her face-to-face with the owners of the old farmhouse she is to live in, an unexpected love interest, a Bible study group she is to lead, and a pair of twins whose lives she is to change forever.
"Turmoil to Triumph: Book One": an engaging story of a woman guided by prayer to change her life and those of others. Turmoil in her life attempts to derail Ana as she moves to a new state and away from her sister, who is disabled. She is accompanied by her Newfoundland dog, Sophie. She finds a new job in the operating room at the local hospital. Gwen and her brother, Hunter, are owners of an old farm they inherited. Ana arranges to rent the farm house from them. Hunter has been self-absorbed with a heavy, bitter heart from previous losses. He is turned around from the moment he meets Ana. Gwen owns a coffee shop and she and Ana become fast friends.

MAC Athletic might be changing their name – but they are determined to pick up where they left off in the Works League next season.
The club who will take on the title of their base the Royal Oak pub at Linthwaite won the Arthur Coupland Trophy by beating Aimbry 4-2 in the final at Lepton.
That followed a second-placed finish in their debut season in the First Division.
Tom White's double put Mac two to the good before Aimbry, who finished third in a top-flight table headed by Lindley Saddle, tied the big match through Michael Calvert and Dan Ginty.
But the Colne Valley side regained the lead through Sam Boothroyd before Jack Mullen sealed the success.
"It's not bad for a bunch of lads from Marsden," smiled manager Adam Frost.
"The nucleus of the side came from junior football, and we started up as Marsden back in 2010.
"We finished seventh in Division II in our first season, then became Mac Athletic through our sponsors Mac Finance, who were great for us.
"In 2011-12, we won promotion after coming third, and we've kicked on from there.
Lindley completed a double by winning the Hoyle Cup while Golcar United are Division II champions.

I'm always dreaming of Paris, so when I saw this sweatshirt I thought it was so cute to throw on when I feel like being Parisien for the day, lol. I really love sweatshirts like this that are basic, but could be worn casual or a little more dressed up. I paired it with faux leather leggings (these ones are amazing!), and heels, to give it a little more of a chic look. I think the all black also amps up the chic factor even though it is a quite casual look.
We're already well into January and this is only my second post of the year. Things were a little crazy around here and I wasn't able to get posts up like I would have liked, but I really want to get back to being more consistent with my posts. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you'll be back for my next one!
