Lionshead Beer

A well made macro in the Pilsner style. Poured out to a reddish-orange color, ot a dark beer but good coloer. You can tell its not waaterd down, Descent level (about a 6 of 10) of carbonation, and a white foam head that calms and leaves some head of foam. Smells of malts and corn, with some cereal, if u give a good deep breath through the nose. Taste is a sefinate step up from 95% of mass produced beers, as this Pilsner has a solid flavor. Both the malt and hops have their moment on the palate, with definate aftertaste hints of grain making u a majority of the flavor of the beer. A cold, crisp, almost like biting into a ripe apple, it makes your mouth water which makes this beer exceptionaly drinkable. Special thanks to The Lion Brewery in Wilkes-Barre, Pennslyvania (I believe its owened by Yuengling) for a beer I have been drinking since age 16. Yes, I might have a slight bias because it is the local, cheap beer, ($10-12 for 24 bottles), but I live in NYC now I've tried a uncountabale amount of beers, but this is still, hands down my favorite.

Cult Dynamite

Cult Dynamite is a localised and enigmatic phenomenon, which was founded in the North Shore of Sydney, Australia.

In mid-2005, multiple motor vehicles were attacked, with the locution 'Cult Dynamite' being written in permanent marker on the windscreeen (or other glass panels) of the motor vehicle. These attacks typically happen in the late evening. The mastermind/s of this phenomenon are unknown, however it is widely believed that this movement has many supporters and therefore copycat attacks are likely to have occurred. There is also ambivalence as to the denotations in the phrase. It has been suggested that the Cult Dynamite phenomenon is a reaction to political and social pressures, with cult portraying an image of public veneration towards authority, and dynamite suggesting something that has the potential to generate extreme reactions and emotion.

Preston B. Whitmore

Preston B. Whitmore is the eccentric billionaire who funds the expedition to discover Atlantis in the 2001 Disney film, Atlantis: The Lost Empire. He was played by actor, John Mahoney.

Born in 1844 in Seattle, Washington, Whitmore was a graduate of Georgetown University (Class of 1866) before becoming the founder and sole owner of Preston Whitmore Industries, Ltd., an empire that encompassed logging operations in the states of Washington and Oregon; the Southern Rail Freight line; Whitmore Mining and Petroleum in Texas, Alaska Territories, and South Africa; Whitmore Stockyards in Houston, Texas; and P.W.I. Shipbuilding in Norfolk, Virginia.

Whitmore is also considered an eccentric, practicing Yoga long before it was fashionable and favoring a hiring system based on merit rather than on one’s ancestry, gender or ethnic background (a practice decades ahead of its time!)

An avid collector of rare antiquities, Whitmore spent sizable fortunes on expeditions to retrieve precious relics with the help of his longtime friend and advisor Professor Thaddeus Thatch (who he met back at Georgetown). Whitmore even accompanied Thatch on a number of these expeditions spanning the globe, sharing his friend’s ambition to find treasures and places of myth.

He also listened to Thatch talk endlessly about the Shepherd’s Journal, an ancient text which allegedly contained a guide to the lost empire of Atlantis. Doubting the existence of this text, Whitmore made a bet with Thatch that if he could find the Shepherd’s Journal, then he would not only fund the expedition to find Atlantis, but that he would kiss Thatch “full on the mouth.” Of course, Thatch did find the Journal in Iceland and Whitmore was forced to make good on his promise.

Unfortunately, Thatch was by now a laughingstock among his colleagues and he died a broken man. Whitmore was then forced to replace him with Thaddeus’s grandson, Milo Thatch, who shared his grandfather’s passion for Atlantis. And so, after hiring the finest crew available at the time, designing and building Ulysses, a state-of-the-art submarine and equipping his team with all the gear and supplies they would need, Whitmore saw the expedition off. The only reason he didn’t join the expedition himself was because of ill health.

Later, Whitmore helped cover up for Atlantis after learning their very survival depended on surface-dwellers being ignorant of its existence. For his generous assistance, Whitmore was given a special Atlantean crystal pendant that helped restore his full health and vigor.

Whitmore finally visited Atlantis himself in the Disney sequel, Atlantis: Milo’s Return, and was instrumental in reassembling the team for a series of adventures back on the surface. His fate thereafter is unknown.

Ed Labetski

Ed Labetski is a talented artist who is mostly known for his digital painings. It might not be accepted as an art-form by everyone, but he creates it like any other conventional art. He tries to make digital paintings more acceptable by making the result look to people in a familiar way, while using exclusively computers to create them. He has also held exhibitions of his printed digital paintings[5][6][7] (in fact, the very first of its kind in Estonia) to bridge the gap. Ed does not have a degree in art, but he has studied conventional ways extensively and also paints using conventional techniques like oil.

Ed Labetski is also the author of Unitube webcomic.

Biography

Ed Labetski was born in 1982.

Ed's parents have lived in Estonia for years. It was then a border-state of the Soviet Union. It's likely that there the fear of nuclear disaster was driven into subconscious particularily firmly during the Cold War and was passed on to the children. When Ed was a child, the Soviet Union collapsed, which was accompanied by rapid money devalvation voiding everyone's lifetime's savings. Bread had to be aquired for food stamps. Shops were rather empty, though it wasn't much different from Soviet Union era.

A turbulent time came along with Ed's turbulent teen years. His little sister has been sent to mental institution. People had to learn to value simple things, though many chose to drown their sorrow in alcohol, which happened also in his family. Estonia regained its independence and Soviet version of history was replaced by a contradicting account. This shook many people's world views. Some met it with angry defiance, others learnt to be healthily sceptical.

Things were going well for Estonia -- it could be proclaimed a part of Europe now and become a very fast developing country embracing Western world. Computerisation became a high priority and schools have been provided with computers so people could get comfortable with them at an early age. Ed took interest in art and seized an opportunity of using the Internet to self-teach different aspects of art -- from oil to 3D.

Ed tried to enter an art university, but was rejected. He went to work as a computer designer instead and kept drawing in his spare time developing a recognisable style. He has held exhibitions[5][6][7] and received several offers to buy his paintings. In 2003, he went to Spain on a whim and after some time was hired to paint over the entire bar's interior, then worked as a computer designer. In 2005, he returned to Estonia and became an art director of an advertising company. He still draws in his spare time.

FCI Ray Brook

The Federal Correctional Institution, Ray Brook is a medium security men's prison in the northern Adirondack Mountains at Ray Brook, NY. Constructed midway between two popular resort towns, Lake Placid and Saranac Lake, to first serve as the Olympic Village for the 1980 Winter Games, Ray Brook was designed to be converted to a prison and was wholly financed by the federal government. Its isolated location in the woods about four miles west of Lake Placid, and its spartan accomodations drew nearly universal scorn from the world's premier winter athletes, who disliked spending two weeks in a jail. Among the most critical were the members of the Soviet Union's acclaimed hockey team, which was upset by the "Miracle on Ice" United States squad that won the gold medal.

New article on Kevin Stillmock, Television Pioneer

Dear Wikkipedians.... I register to the site, have been reading for hours and only find deadlinks when it comes to actually creating a new listing. So, I'll leave it in your hands...

The article below is about Kevin Stillmock, I worked with him in the 1990's. If you Google him you will find a partial listing of trade paper articles add credibility to my text.


Thank You,

Marc B. thevisgroup@yahoo.com


Kevin Stillmock, 1978-


Kevin Stillmock's career began in 1995 when he worked at the Education Channel in Baltimore, MD. While still attending high school, Stillmock's audition for an afterschool internship at a local television quickly boomeranged into a feature producer position for a locally-created, nationanly syndicated PBS program, "Network Underground." By the summer of 1995 and on the threshold of his senior year at high school Stillmock was already in Los Angeles, CA producing material on behalf of the Station. By the beginning of 1996, Kevin Stillmock had relocated to Los Angeles and while finishing his high school education at the private school San Fernando Valley Professional, succeeded in launching a college oriented cable tv network entitled Edge TV. Edge TV broadcast such programs as Bohemia Afterdark (which broke the band No Doubt), Lonely Chef (from England's Channel 4), and a series of interviews and specials host by the late screenwriter Erich Leon Harris. Edge also broadcast countless hours of original programming for which Stillmock served as executive and creative producer. Kevin Stillmock, at the age of 17 was the youngest cable television executive in America.


By 1998 Stillmock had started his own full-service media company, handling advertising and distribution needs for a number of medium size cable outlets and television programs. His newly formed group also produced "Third Eye" a television series that explored the ways young people were taking part in and changing the world. His company's involvement in the formation of the cable channel Destiny, led to years of consulting work with the Network.

While still involved in the world of television on many levels, Stillmock has spent a considerable part of this century in Eastern European countries like Romania and Moldova. He co-formed with Robert Gottschall, the non-profit foundation Community of the Future, which seeks to inspire, mobilize, and train young people to radically transform there lives and there communities for the better. The program believes in a three-thronged approach which includes interactive motivational training to transform the life perspective of theindividual, the formation of teams of like-minded invidivuals who act as a single entity, and outward directed community service initiatives to serve as a catalsyt for societal change.

Stillmock also regular writes real estate reports on Romania for Escape Artist.Com. His latest endevour is an internet development company that will be shortly launching a number of high-end web sites with intended wide-audience appeal. Kevin Stillmock is also involved in the Celebrity Partnership which uses a variety of media to connect stars with there fan-based and engage them in meaningful service causes. Under his direction, the foundation has produced programming with actress Brittany Murphy, on animal rights issue at the Wildlife Waystation and Michael Douglas on young people and access to media.

Richard "Ty" Reiber

Richard "Ty" Reiber is a mountain man. Born in the scenic hills of rolling Pennsylvania in the log cabin that his father built, he has conquered the wildlife around him to epic proportions. Mastering every variety of beast he encounters, "Ty" has seldom come up against a foe he could not overcome. He has made deer bologna that has won him first prize for years at the Trout Deer Bologna Cook-Off. He has but one enemy he has never defeated, though he tries with gusto every day: Steve Wales. Steve Wales is a machine. He was created out of video game parts and a bubble gun, giving him amazing trumpet playing abilities. "Ty" often mistakes these trumpet calls for the sound of the hunt (as horns are often used to hunt foxes) and has thusly felt tricked by The Machine many times. Therefore, they are forever locked in epic combat. "Ty" is also a world-class Republican who drives a Republican car. It is only worth $4.66, which is twice the resale value in England, oddly enough. A master of the forest and of epic Rednecketry, "Ty" Reiber will live on forever in the hearts of all who knew him. He is not dead yet. He also has broccoli in his shoes.

Hand Turkey

A hand turkey is a drawing made to resemble a wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) by tracing the outline of the artist's open hand and adding various elements such as a wing, beak, eye, or feathers. In the sketch, the artist's thumb corresponds to the turkey's head, and the fingers correspond to the standing feathers typical of a turkey. Because it is so easy to draw, a hand turkey is a favorite project for children, especially during Thanksgiving because of the importance of the wild turkey in that holiday.

Rock Deputy - friends to some, hero to many

Rock Deputy was born a mortal man by the name of Cody Petruk, in the year of 1977. But at the tender age of 27 Cody had an awakening that shook the very foundations of our known universe. And lo, Rock Deputy rose up, like a Phoenix born out of the ashes, bringing colour and light to, what would soon be known as, the Dark Pre-Wakening of Society (or Prae Rock Deputius). It is said that, on the day of the transformation, the sky opened up and warm rays of hope flooded the Earth for 7 days in which there was no death or pain in the world, and the air was filled with the laughter of children. At the end of those 7 days a spiritual awakening occurred throughout the globe. Rock Deputy, or The Giver, left as quickly as he came, his mortal shell burst into a blinding white light revealing his true form that of pure energy. Now he spends his time forming stars and creating new galaxies. He still finds time to communicate with us humans by beaming down his thoughts onto the internet where many have benefited from his wisdom.

He can be often be found on Threadless.
