2015 Featured Artist

DYLAN STRZYNSKI

(poster above)

Dylan Strzynski was born in Flint Michigan in the mid 1970’s but grew up mostly in the woody marine landscape of northern Michigan, blocks from the big lake. He graduated from the University of Michigan School Of Art And Design with a BFA focused on printmaking and sculpture. Today his work, which focuses on landscape and vernacular architecture, addresses concerns about the environment and poverty by telling stories characterized by mystery and subtle humor.

OMAR SHARIFF HAS DIED AT 83

Omar Shariff

Birth Name: Michel Demitri Chalhoub

10 April 1932 Alexandria, Egypt

Died 10 July 2015 (aged 83) Cairo, Egypt

After a long battle with Alzheimer's disease, amazingly handsome  actor Omar Shariff died yesterday. He was 83.

Omar Sharif, whose surname means "the noble man" in Egyptian Arabic, was born on 10 April 1932, as Michel Demitri Chalhoub[8] in Alexandria, Egypt, to a Melkite Greek Catholic family of Syrian-Lebanese descent.

His father, Joseph Chalhoub, originally from Zahlé, was a wealthy timber merchant who settled in Egypt in the early 20th century, where Omar Sharif was born and raised. His mother, Claire Saada, was a noted society hostess, and Egypt's King Farouk was a regular visitor until he was deposed in 1952.

In his youth, Sharif studied at Victoria College, Alexandria, where he showed a talent for languages. He later graduated from Cairo University with a degree in mathematics and physics.

He then worked for a while in his father's precious wood business before studying acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. In 1955, Sharif converted to Islam and married fellow Egyptian actress Faten Hamama,

FULL BLUE MOON JULY 31 2015

What is a Blue Moon?

The modern day definition of a Blue Moon is when there are 2 full moons in one Month. A full moon occurs roughly every 29.5 days and on the rare occasions when the full moon falls at the very beginning of a month there is a good chance a Blue Moon will occur at the end of the month. According to this definition the next blue moon will occur on July 31, 2015.

Depending on the exact time of the Blue Moon it is possible that some places in the world don't technicly have a Blue Moon. As an example the Blue Moon on August 31, 2012 occured exactly at 13:58 UT. The Blue Moon will occur on August 31 for South America, North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, India, and Austrialia but New Zealand will just miss out. For New Zealand the Full Moon occurs just past mid-night on September 1st. For exact times of the Full and Blue Moons see the Full Moon Calendar.

You're almost definitely in need of some well deserved rest and relaxation; don't be afraid to take it. You are getting closer to "who you really are," at your deepest levels.
