Picasso was once approached by a friend holding a few of the artist's sketches. The friend asked if Picasso wouldn't mind just putting his name and the date on the back of each before he had them framed for his house.
Picasso, of course, was no fool and knew that the "friend" was only going to sell the sketches. So he shook his head "no." "Those are fakes."
"No, they're not!" the friend protested. "I saw you draw these with my own eyes!"
Picasso shrugged. "I can draw fake Picassos just as well as anybody else."

The earlier works show MORE technical expertise and are classically representational where Seated Harlequin is obviously not worried about representation. He's enhanced color, reduced depth of field to nothing, and so on.
Why?

After certain types of aortic surgery, if there is inadvertent damage to nerves in the upper chest people have been known to develop a condition where half the face turns bright red and the other half turns white as a sheet, either with stress/exercise or at random times. This is one form of something known as Harlequin Syndrome. (do NOT Bing search Harlequin syndrome)

Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song?
I've heard a rumor from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true
They got a message from the Action Man
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved all I've needed, love
Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing, just
Pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

He is in many ways, the template for modern celebrity. With or without any actual talent, he perfected the art of making everything all about him.
He was doted over, reported to be brilliant in everything he did, no matter how trivial, and was a complete ass to everyone who was kind to him. He went through females like any modern rock star.
I don't know. Maybe the corruption corrupted him, or maybe his corruption corrupted all he did. Either way, regardless of his art, the world is better off without the man.

Can't stand Picasso. Though he is marginally "better" than Jackson Pollock, my least favorite "artist" of all.

I've seen similar reports. One stated that over the past decade IL has lost the equivalent of the population of the 10 largest cities outside of Chicago. Further, all of the other states in the upper midwest have gained population recently.
I really wonder what percentage of those leaving are from the Chicago metro area vs elsewhere. Most people in the state don't necessarily hate IL...they hate Chicago and the big sucking sound it's bankrupt system makes.

Downstate IL is pretty red - and it must be immensely frustrating to know that your vote will be overruled by Chicagoland.
A lot of the libtards in the comments say, "Oh, it's the climate." Shivering in Wisconsin, I understand the appeal of warmer climates, but that's not the only consideration. People move where there are jobs and lower taxes. Those people are going to TX not California, which for climate has every other state beat.

Wow.
He pulled the same deal in the election that he's always done: Buying property and turning a huge profit.
The Dems laughed and laughed at him--like Merv thinking he'd screwed Trump--"take the working class (losers), we have all the cool people so we'll win" they said.
"Well, if I ever ran for office, I'd do better as a Democrat than as a
Republican--and that's not because I'd be more liberal, because I'm
conservative. But the working guy would elect me. He likes me. When I
walk down the street, those cabbies start yelling out their windows."
He did it. He fucking did that and told them exactly how he was going to do it 20 years ago.

As far as I'm concerned, the worst suburb of Milwaukee has to be Shorewood. Not because it's ugly - on the contrary, it's pretty and full of wealthy and upper middle class people, but because it is as smugly liberal as Madison.
I remember when Justice Renquist was still alive and was invited to give the commencement address at his alma mater, Shorewood HS - and then the parents, teachers and students had the school disinvite him because he was conservative. Yeah, he's the only Supreme Court Justice Shorewood has ever produced, and it's most illustrious native son, but god forbid the snowflakes honor a conservative and hear opinions they might disagree with.
I get my hair cut at a salon there and I heard one of the patrons said she threw up when they called the election for Trump. And she's "so ashamed" that she lives in a red state now. That made my day.

White men over 40 received the opposite treatment. One attorney's resume was so spectacular that interviewers struggled to come up with plausible excuses to reject him. Finally, someone blurted out, "For the love of God, don't hire him!" Cordray, who always spoke last, had no choice. He asked that the rejection letter be delayed until he could call the Supreme Court justice who had left a voicemail recommending the man.

I like him, but then I've seen his art in person, which helps any artist be more impressive. He managed to reinvent himself many times; I like his early stuff like his blue period, and the cubism. I saw an exhibit of later sculptures from when he was old and I was struck by how whimsical and creative they were, the way they played with positive/negative space. He manages to stay a genius of composition, form and shape till the end, which not all artists can muster.
He was an absolute bastard though, really terrible. Not a nice person. His granddaughter Marina wrote a really eye opening book about him, a really fascinating read. His daughter Paloma designs jewelry for Tiffanys, really beautiful stuff.

He had on a real pair of doozies last night - some Tariq guy going on about Trump being a white supremacist and a womyn voxplaining why "Baby, It's Cold Outside" is offensive.
The poor 1940's women played hard to get and had to be sweet talked and seduced, unlike women now, who get drunk, hook up and then can say they were raped if they decide they didn't like the guy very much. And the pajama bois don't sweet talk, instead they have to ask every step of the way "Can I kiss you? Can I put my hand here?" How romantic!

==========================
Nate Cohn had a good mansplainer article on this yesterday. It boiled down to agreeing that Hillary won Cali big, and Trump won his base states equally big which essentially brought the two to a tie in the popular vote and in the EC. In Cohn's view, the story of the election wasn't California or Trump's nine smaller base states.
Trump then won squeekers in nearly every single tossup state, yielding him the EC win and the Presidency, while Hillz went on to wrack up useless vote margins in Democrat base states.
Trump won where it counted and Hillary lost every tossup except New Hampshire. She should have spent a little campaign time in Michigan.

Someone here mentioned yesterday that Detroit, with 50% turnout somehow managed to tally up votes that exceeded 100% of registered voters (by like 15% or so). That's *a lot* of fraud, and I bet under normal circumstances, would be more than enough to win the state.

Trump won where it counted and Hillary lost every tossup except New Hampshire. She should have spent a little campaign time in Michigan.
------------
Honestly, this was a smart move for Hillary. She wasn't going to win those states, no matter how much money or time she spent there. So better for her to rack up points in states that were already in the bag.
At least, she can claim she won the popular vote. I guess if you are going to lose, it gives you something to hang your hat on.

Yet until the recent publication of Marina Picasso's ''Picasso: My Grandfather'' (Riverhead), none of his descendants had ever turned against his memory. All have in one way or another benefited from carrying his name and inheriting his works. All seemed resigned to living under the shadow of a man who, in death as in life, remained the all-powerful Picasso. Now in a sense his only granddaughter has broken free.
''His brilliant oeuvre demanded human sacrifices,'' she writes. ''He drove everyone who got near him to despair and engulfed them. No one in my family ever managed to escape from the stranglehold of this genius. He needed blood to sign each of his paintings: my father's blood, my brother's, my mother's, my grandmother's and mine. He needed the blood of those who loved him -- people who thought they loved a human being, whereas they really loved Picasso.''

No I get that, but it is something - may not be big - may be essentially meaningless - but you can at least say you won the popular vote.
Why I say it was a smart move is that she was going to lose those states no matter how much time and money she spent there.
Given the option of losing the EC and the popular vote compared to losing the EC but winning the popular vote. The latter is probably preferable - even though the result is the exact same.

That does not surprise me at all. Marina also wrote this about Picasso and his relationship with women:
''He submitted them to his animal sexuality, tamed them, bewitched them, ingested them and crushed them onto his canvas,'' she writes. ''After he had spent many nights extracting their essence, once they were bled dry, he would dispose of them.''
Today, Ms. Picasso said, she recognizes that genius always extracts a high price from those around it. ''Either people are strong enough to walk away, or they crystallize around the genius and suffer one or two generations of destruction,'' she said. ''It's what happened to us. When I was a child I could not see that. Today, in the same situation, if I were strong enough, I would run away."

Yay for the modern era, where any "study" can be twisted to serve whatever ends the study commissioners desire. Ignores all the people that HAVE been grieviously, irreparably harmed, but do not fit the Narrative. Let's exploit them yet again.
There is a Father Brown episode on this subject. The girl raped by an older relative sought revenge for him destroying her innocence and happiness, it had a lot of nice twists and turns to the plot.

I think Obama's purposeful sabotage of the economy via the energy sector by his last minute exec. order barring drilling in the Arctic has taken the wind out of the sails of investors a bit.
From what I heard on Fox Business this morning, this wont be a simple reversal of exec order. Obama used a law passed by Congress in 1953 that gives him absolute authority to ban drilling on any public land.
So he did.
According to FB's experts, it is going to take a repeal of that law, via Congress to remove this order.

I think the idea of the tormented genius or the genius who does not have to follow the rules ordinary people have to follow is very much a creation of the Romantic Era.

I can forgive a lot of things, but molesting a child is not one of them. Anybody who does that deserves the worst, most painful punishment there is. Because it does harm the child-it scars them forever. And any vile bureaucrat who enables child molesters deserves the exact same punishment.

I love White Christmas. But if it were made today?
First of all, there would be no Haynes sisters. It would be a brother and sister. Why, you ask? Because the real reason Phil Davis partners with Bob Wallace is because he is in love with him. So, of course, at the end of the movie, while Bob gets Judy, Phil gets the hunky, fabulous Haynes brother.
General Waverly? Well, he'll be a psyche-scarred veteran of the Gulf. And he didn't retire - no, he was kicked out of the army, either because he refused to cover up for his troops raping poor Iraqi women or he refused to go along with Chimpy BusHitler's lies about WMD in Iraq.
His housekeeper? No longer the feisty, white Mary Wickes - no, no, she's a big, brassy, ghetto-speaking momma there to bring old racist white people to their senses with her salt-of-the-earth wisdom.
And the general's granddaughter? A snotty, wise-beyond-her-years SJW who hates Christmas because of its white privilege and who, while she may be reconciled with the holiday by the end of the movie, will be shown to be the only person with any sense among the whole group.

The US Embassy in Tunis, as well as the American International School-where all dip/expat American kids go to school, Pre K-12- were attacked at the same time as Benghazi. Children were being pulled out of windows and thrown into whatever vehicles were available, in order to get them out. But the MFM doesn't report on that, because some poor schmuck made a video that incensed normally law abiding muslims into a raping, murderous rage.
Because they are not Iraqi/Libyan/Syrian, they are often ignored as a threat, because Tunisia has rarely gone after the US/Europe. They have been active mostly in the Mahghreb. But I guess they want to have a go now.

They were..get this...hiking in Afghanistan in 2012 when they were captured.
She was seven months pregnant at the time. She now has another child and calls the two her "surviving" children.
She says she has been "defiled" in front of both of them.
Hubby is sitting there holding kids next to her in the latest video from their captures.
She is begging the Afghan gov. to do what the captures want to gain their release.....

Why Does Tunisia Produce So Many Terrorists?
The experts have long since determined that Tunisia is a disproportionate source of recruits for radical Islamist causes. Despite the country's relatively small population of 11 million, Tunisians are conspicuously over-represented among the fighters of the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq. According to recent estimates, 7,000 Tunisians have joined the cause - more than any other country, including much larger ones such as Saudi Arabia and Egypt.

It would have been a smart move if she had won. As it was, she thought she was winning and didn't need to go to those places to campaign.
She was using flawed information gathering techniques, staff who wouldn't contradict her because of the hurt she would bring on them, and probably planted disinformation - possibly her own campaign's disinformation.
Trump also managed to wind beyond the margin of fraud.
She was a terrible candidate, didn't know what she was doing, and wouldn't listen to experts who tried to tell her she was wrong.
No amount of CYA is going to change that, and as they say in the recovery field, the only thing you can do about the past is learn from it or lie about it: if you are too busy trying to find someone to fix the blame about it you ain't learning, are you?

She also said that her relationship with Vera-Ellen during the shoot was pleasant, but formal, as Clooney was not a trained dancer and felt Vera-Ellen was impatient with her because of that.

We had a single-screen theater in Boulder that had midnight shows every Friday and Saturday for years.

Terrible that this never got media coverage, Moki.
IIRC, at least 12 US embassies visited by protesting crowds on 9/11 - in ME, N Africa, and in London. That particular bit of context was memory-holed very quickly after the Benghazi attack since it didn't fit the narrative.
Posted by: Lizzy at December 21, 2016 12:15 PM (NOIQH)
Yep-all the embassies in North Africa, Damascus, Beirut, Sanaa, Iraq and Cairo. It was awful, and was all downplayed because Benghazi was so much more awful. And while the media seems to be able to come up with bimbo after bimbo to attack Trump, they couldn't handle covering all of these attacks.

They did it everywhere and still continue to every halloween in most medium sized cities.

I think it started dying out once the original viewers started entering retirement villas.

Speaking of Clooney, I wonder if George has any guilt for being apart of a family that acted in films showing the world as a cis-hetero-white-normative patriarchal place.
I think I want to hear him apologize at the next awards show.

So did Debbie.

Great form but points off for lack of imagination. Judges give it a 7.8, brought low by the Armenian judge who gives everything a 5.

It is extremely rare for a man to be that gorgeous and still be so thoroughly masculine.
I think it helped that he really could act.
And another thing. He aged naturally and beautifully.

This went on in a lot of cities...
Fun part was, that each city had its own 'script'... things they did... sometimes in common with others... sometimes not...
In Orlando Fla. they actually pushed a real motorcycle around while Eddie sang 'Whatever happened to Saturday night...'

What? Debbie Does Dallas is the definition of a cult classic.
I was right on topic.

There used to a theater in Boston that played Rocky Horror every Saturday night at midnight for years.
I think it started dying out once the original viewers started entering retirement villas.

It died once characters in the real world became weirder than the characters in the movie.

They do a pretty good job of equating Nazis to good family folks. I especially liked the son of the U.S. Nazi SS turning himself in for elimination because he was "defective".

I consider all the Clint Eastwood movies from his spaghetti westerns through the Dirty Harry movies cult films.
Then there was "Maude", "Clockwork Orange", and others too numerous to mention.
And they're movies that still hold a cult following even now.

I always liked the fact that the stakes, a dog and a car, were lower than even one life. But the reason was clear anyway.

Yes. It had a fan-service episode that made sense plot-wise, the "harem" girls had no sexual interest in the protagonist (and pretty much vice versa), and the prison escape episode was pure sci-fi. I always wanted a sequel.
Trigun, Cowboy Bebop, and Last Exile (the original) are other favorites of mine. I liked one called Broken Blade but it seemed as if it were cancelled mid-production and rushed to an ending.
Cult classic movies?
Breakfast Club (because teenagers still watch it!)
Big Trouble in Little China (which others have mentioned)
I think John Wick might be headed there.
