One of most painfully beautiful model creatures currently working anywhere on earth. A joy to collaborate with. Featured extensively in Coilhouse Issue 03, and you'll be seeing a lot more of him in Issue 05. Stay tuned!
Whether a long day, or just a lazy day, I took a candid shot of this pup who decided to take a snooze amid the foot traffic at Wat Paknam Phasi Charoen. Also of note, he’s not the only day-time slacker: Friend/coconspirator (kitty) is mostly hidden in pic behind pole.
To reject pain is to avoid love.
We are accomplices and opponents; we once desired each other.
Should lust be crime, you and I are no doubt the most sinful……
The most intensive bantering mockery and query of a skeptic of love
Director Baboo, composes the piece based on, Heiner Mϋller, the German dramatist’s recreation, Quartett, of the French novel Les Liaisons dangereusesan, as an extension of Hsu Yen-ling×Sylvia Plath to discuss the transformation of theatrical poetry and change of scenes, and the exploration of acting talents to represent the cruel erotica and violence in aesthetics. Heiner Mϋller’s script is known for stylistic language, fragmentary and disconnected plots. Quartett is interwoven with long monologues that are fierce but poetic, and accompanied by disconnected meanings without clear indication. Two actor and actress will act as four different characters. “Play” and “game” are the two main actions throughout the play, and simultaneously represent the ambiguity of characters, sexuality, and desire.
Quarett abounds in pornography, fornication and sex, which are all reminiscent of the devil’s doings. It also tries to convert what’s been considered amoral into physical pleasure, and further to subvert the order of human civilization. In so doing, the animal desire will manifest itself through sex—passion of sex is the only means for human beings to avoid objectification.
Quarett is an arena of love where the body/sense and the soul/reason fight their tug of war. It displays a symptom of sickness only to be seen in passion and desire. Thru the four roles played by the two actors and their engagement in sex, we verge on the confusions generated in between multi-orgasms and post-sex blues. The two characters on the stage are coconspirators, lovers, enemies and individualists who live on one another. Also they symbolize the aesthetics of a lone island existing in the compressed space of a relationship. A rope ties the two tight together, with such diverse senses as suspicion, rapture, madness, pleasure and sadness afloat around. Torture and possessiveness also find their roots deep in the relationship of the two. We then come to realize, after experiencing the pangs, the existential conditions of LOVE.
Nevertheless, the plays and characterizations of the two roles coldly, meta-analytically remind the viewers of the reality hidden behind the back of all passions. In the end, the demises of the two signify the eternal aloofness experienced in one single shortened sexual orgasm, a redemption never to be redeemed.
Fresh edit from the photo archives... Rare behind the scene shot of MDF & yours truly meeting up to launch our first multi-day road trip. 2009
This morning Look + See called to say my new glasses were ready. Naturally I raced on over to retrieve them.
When the Midnighter approached its Futuron quarry, Trubil was relieved to see his Blacktron coconspirators had dispatched a Mechpod to the freighter's coordinates. If the heist got ugly, the pod's Evil Mech would wreak havoc against freighter security teams, and allow Trubil to escape.
With Midnighter's propulsion drives set for holding the ship's position, and its sentinel drone deployed as a lookout, Trubil stealthily begins cutting into the freighter with the adamantite rotary hull-saw. (Surely the nearby airlock is alarmed.)

The Blacktron Mechpod was built with the then to-be-designed Midnighter in mind, however there was no room for it, so I spun it off and eventually used Midnighter's available space for the sentinel drone.
The Classic Space logos on the freighter prop are from Peter Howkins' Marutan.NET site. I simply used address label paper and a dot matrix printer -- the low quality is my doing, not his.

A Decatur man will spend 18 months in federal prison and must pay $4.7 million in restitution for his part in a mortgage fraud scheme involving fraudulent appraisals for 15 homes in the Greenleaf subdivision in Forsyth County.
Darryl L. Cooper, 27, received a reduced sentence, which includes three years of supervised release, from U.S. District Judge Thomas W. Thrash Jr. because of his cooperation in the investigation. He pleaded guilty Nov. 7, 2007 to one count on a charge of mortgage fraud conspiracy.
The appraisals supported $4.7 million in fraudulent loans for purchases in the names of out-of state "investors" of incomplete homes from builder/coconspirator Jeffery Alan Teague.
Cooper was recruited by Teague to prepare $5 million in appraisal valuations for 15 complete houses, when none of the houses had been completed.
A California lender relied on Cooper's fraudulent appraisals to make $4.7 million in mortgage loans secured by these properties, which had no value. Many of the borrower/purchasers from California, New York and Florida also relied on the Cooper appraisals, rather than inspecting the properties before closing on their loans.
"The partially built houses in this case may be subject to condemnation, as the portions completed were not built to code, leaving mortgage lenders with little security for their loans and 'investors' with nothing to resell, and neighborhoods full of vacant and uninhabitable houses," Nahmias said.
Teague was sentenced Oct. 26, 2007, to 15 years, 8 months in prison and ordered to pay $7.8 million in restitution.
Huntingtower Castle was known as the House of Ruthven for the first one hundred and fifty years of its existence. Home to the Ruthven family, in 1480 the two Ruthven inherited the lands where the castle now sits and may be the reason for the castles unusual design.
In the early 1500's the gatehouse, the oldest part of the castle, was converted into a three story residential tower, now known as the eastern tower. It was also during this time or soon after that the western tower, also a three story residential tower, was built just nine feet away from the eastern tower. The only connection between the two towers was a wooden bridge located below the level of battlements.
Mary, Queen of Scots, visited Huntingtower Castle for a few days in 1565, while on her honeymoon with Darnley. Later, in 1582 4th Lord Ruthven, now occupying Huntingtower Castle with his family, was involved in a plot to kidnap Mary's, son James VI and later did so. The kidnapping is now know as the -Raid of Ruthven'. Lord Ruthven and his coconspirators hoped to gain power through controlling the King and held him at the Castle for ten months before he escaped. King James VI initially forgave Ruthven, but after a second attempt to overthrow him James had Ruthven executed and his property was forfeited to the crown.
Huntingtower Castle and its land were returned to the Ruthven family in 1586, but this was short lived because brothers Alexander and John Ruthven were implicated in a plot to kill King James VI. The brothers were executed and the King seized all there estates, abolished the name Ruthven, and decreed that any successors would not be able to hold titles or land. It was at this time that the -House of Ruthven' ceased to exist and the castle was renamed Hunting tower Castle.
Huntingtower remain in the possession of the crown until it was given to the family of Murray of Tullibardine in1643. The castle became neglected in the later occupation of John Murray, 1st Duke of Atholl, and when his wife died in 1767 it was abandoned. In 1805 Huntingtower Castle was sold and used for housing cloth factory workers and in 1912 the castle was taken into state care.
DARRYL L. COOPER, 27, of Decatur, Georgia, was sentenced today by United States District Judge Thomas W. Thrash, Jr., for a scheme to defraud mortgage lenders by creating fraudulent appraisals that reflected completed construction. The appraisals supported $4.7 million in fraudulent loans for purchases in the names of out-of state “investors” of incomplete homes from builder/coconspirator JEFFERY ALAN TEAGUE.
Teague was sentenced Oct. 26, 2007, to 15 years, 8 months in prison and ordered to pay $7.8 million in restitution.

My friend, landlord, unindicted coconspirator has left the building. He was brilliant, sad, wonderful a weird sort of snob. I miss the gent. He was a pioneer pirate broadcaster, music junky who had a passion for serious music, and free spirited women. He was one of a kind, I should have been nicer to him, but WTF.

Stephen E Moore, book editor, audiophile ( he probably still plays vinyl on a fine turntable ) raconteur, former landlord ( I was the horrible tenant from hell ), and friend. I miss our conversations, one of the smartest people I've ever met. Oh, one more thing, he invented "Lost World Radio", a free form cable radio station a long time before pod casting was invented.
Okay, full (well, nearly) disclosure: This is the Samuel R. Smith Infirmary, built in 1889. It served (with the other building just behind the camera) as Staten Island Hospital for a time, as a training area for nurses, and at some point as a nursing home. ForgottenNY tells me that Herman Melville's sister was a secretary here in the 1890s.
Incidently the Landmark Preservation Commission denied landmark status to the site in 1983, but semi-officially regretted that decision in 1987 when the owner at the time threatened to plaster over the beautiful exterior brickwork during renovation. Fortunately, that plastering never happened. Unfortunately, neither did the renovation and the site continues to sink into disrepair.
Thanks are due to my guide FtLoBROOKLYN and coconspirator Fuzzy Logikz

Each bonfire society has its own traditional costumes (ranging from Tudor dress to Mongol warriors). A number of large effigies are drawn though the streets. Effigies of Guy Fawkes and Pope Paul V, who became head of the Roman Catholic Church in 1605, feature every year. In addition, each of the five main local societies creates a topical tableau (usually, but not always, representing a human figure or figures), and the Cliffe society displays on pikes the heads (also in effigy) of its current Enemies of Bonfire, this year (2007) it was Brighton and Hove Albion F.C. because of the stadium rumpus.
Someone had crept into the kitchen and stolen her mother's reading glasses... too good of an opportunity to pass up.
Lewes Bonfire Night
The town is famous for its annual Guy Fawkes Night celebrations on the 5th of November. In Lewes this event not only marks the date of the uncovering of the Gunpowder Plot in 1605, but also commemorates the memory of 17 Protestant martyrs who were burnt at the stake in the town during the Marian Persecutions of 1555–1557. The current celebrations take the form of a series of torchlit processions through the town. The event is organised by the local bonfire societies. Lewes itself currently has seven bonfire societies (Nevill Juveniles is a children's society and holds its celebrations a week or two before 5th November; Southover, which disbanded in 1985, reformed in 2005) and a number of nearby towns have their own bonfire societies. The other five local bonfire societies from the town (Cliffe, Borough, Commercial Square, South Street and Waterloo) each proceed on their own route accompanied by a number of other societies from the neighbouring towns.

“Jordan’s Point”
“A day I will never forget…’ Margaret Junkin Preston diary, June 12, 1864”
“On this spot, in the early morning hours of Saturday, June 11, 1864, Confederate Gen. John McCausland and about 1,500 gray-clad soldiers lined the riverbank between a cedar thicket and the warehouses that cluttered the canal landing. They stretched up the bluff behind you where a Confederate artillery section was located. By mid-morning, Gen. David Hunter’s 18,000 Union infantry and artillery occupied the hillside across the river in front of you, en route to Lynchburg to destroy the railroad facilities there. Two of Hunter’s infantry divisions under Gens. George Crook and Jeremiah C. Sullivan attempted to cross the North River here and a mile up stream at Leyburn’s Ford, while Gen. William W. Averill’s cavalry division crossed several miles upstream and to the west.
McCausland torched the covered bridge (the stone abutments are still visible) after calling in his skirmishers from the far bank. Union Gen. Rutherford B. Hayes, later our 19th president, commanded the first Federals to arrive on the opposite bank. Several hours of skirmishing followed while Hunter’s forces consolidated their position. By mid-afternoon, McCausland ordered a withdrawal, leaving open the road into Lexington. The Confederates retreated to Buchanan and the Lynchburg. The following day, Hunter ordered the Institute and the home of former Virginia Governor John Letcher burned. The library and classrooms of Washington College (now Washington and Lee University) as well as many local residences, were ransacked. Hunter departed Lexington for Lynchburg on June 14.”
