For most people out there who know anything about photography or who have lived past the age of 40 Mary Ellen Mark's work is nothing new to you,for the rest of you out there it's time to learn about one of the most influencial photographers of all time.Mary was born in Philadelphia on March 20th where she started shooting photo's at the age of nine on a simple Brownie camera.Later she attended the University of Pennsylvania where she studied painting and art history for her Bachelor's degree.She turned professional as a freelance in the mid-1960s when she returned to school at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. After graduating, in 1965, Mark was awarded a Fulbright scholarship to photograph in Turkey and other countries in Europe for a year.Her work has never been easy or pretty she liked to show the under belly of life (like an old school Boogie) the things we try and pretend don't exist the homeless,drug addicts,prostitution and most of all lonely despair.I first got to know her work after seeing the Seattle based documentary "Street Wise" which showed the homeless youth of Seattle back in like 84 or some shit when it was a real crazy little town.She has shot for Life,Rolling Stone,The New Yorker and Vanity Fair.She has had three grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, a Robert Kennedy Journalism Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and five honorary doctorates and was a member of the Magnum Photos photography agency from 1977-1982.In 1988 she received a George Polk Award for photojournalism.So there you have it one of the Pubs favorite photographers of all time.

Ed.Note Is that Jason Stotler in the background? P.H. GOES DIGGING IN THE I-PHOTO.

Sunday, March 23, 2008WHAT'S THE MATH ON 7.5 BILLION x 5.9 TRILLION ANYWAYS?
The explosion of a star halfway across the universe was so huge it set a record for the most distant object that could be seen on Earth by the naked eye.A star 7.5 billion light years away exploded, giving off the brightest gamma-ray burst afterglow ever seen.The aging star, in a previously unknown galaxy, exploded in a gamma ray burst 7.5 billion light years away, its light finally reaching Earth early Wednesday.The gamma rays were detected by NASA's Swift satellite at 2:12 a.m. "We'd never seen one before so bright and at such a distance," NASA's Neil Gehrels said.It was bright enough to be seen with the naked eye.However, NASA has no reports that any skywatchers spotted the burst, which lasted less than an hour.
The starburst would have appeared as bright as some of the stars in the handle of the Little Dipper constellation, said Penn State University astronomer David Burrows. How it looked wasn't remarkable, but the distance traveled was.The 7.5 billion light years away far eclipses the previous naked eye record of 2.5 million light years. One light year is 5.9 trillion miles."This is roughly halfway to the edge of the universe," Burrows said.Before it exploded, the star was about 40 times bigger than our sun. The explosion vaporized any planet nearby, Gehrels said. Ed.Note These stats are just mind-boggling. "ALL HAIL THE NEW OUTSIDER."HAPPY FUCKING EASTER FROM THE PUBS.

A 6-year-old girl who underwent a rare transplant surgery after her intestines were sucked out in a swimming pool has died in an Omaha hospital.Abigail was injured when she sat on a pool drain, and its powerful suction ripped out part of her intestinal tract. She underwent transplant surgery in December at the Nebraska hospital to receive a new small bowel, liver and pancreas.University of Nebraska Medical Center Chief of Transplantation Dr. Alan Langas said in December that Abigail was one of the oldest patients he's seen to receive such a transplant. Langas said at the time many transplant patients are under age 2 and some are even less than a year old.

Thursday, March 13, 2008GIRLFRIEND SPENDS TWO FUCKING YEARS ON THE SHITTER.
A 35-year-old woman who sat on her boyfriend's toilet for so long that her body was stuck to the seat had a phobia about leaving the bathroom, the boyfriend said."She is an adult; she made her own decision," said her boyfriend, Kory McFarren. "I should have gotten help for her sooner; I admit that. But after a while, you kind of get used to it."The case drew nationwide attention after Ness County Sheriff Bryan Whipple said it appeared the Ness City woman's skin had grown around the seat in the two years she apparently was in the bathroom.
"We pried the toilet seat off with a pry bar and the seat went with her to the hospital," Whipple said. "The hospital removed it."McFarren, 36, said he can't be certain how long Pam Babcock stayed in the bathroom because "time just went by so quick I can't pinpoint how long." He said beatings she received in her childhood caused her phobia."It just kind of happened one day; she went in and had been in there a little while, the next time it was a little longer. Then she got it in her head she was going to stay -- like it was a safe place for her," But McFarren said she moved around in the bathroom during that time, bathed and changed into the clothes he brought her. He brought food and water to her. They had conversations and had an otherwise normal relationship -- except it all happened in the bathroom. 5 QUESTIONS WITH MICHAEL LEON.

KSUBI MINI BURGER ART CAR. I saw this a few days ago and wanted to post it but blogger was down so here it is.In the 'The Bombed Mache', a backyard mortuary of disposable needs stands 'Mini Burger' and 'Pickle'. The four metre high sculpture comprises of two 1972 used Austin Martin Cars, two Austin Mini car bonets, five car tyres and truck tyre. Created by the Ksubi Collective, the sculpture was built as a reaction to the disposability of used cars and car parts, and how they can be made into useful things like hamburgers. 'Mini Burger' and 'Pickle' stands in a courtyard of Ksubi's Melbourne store, the same site where infamous 'Sign of the Times' sculpture once stood, before stolen and destroyed late last year. The sculpture was created for the 'High Art' event, a multi venue exhibition in Armadale during the Melbourne Fashion Festival which concludes on Tuesday March 9 so check t out this very impressive work if you are in the area.
