one of the qualities I look for in a judge is judgment now there are a number

of ways to assess judgment from a legal perspective how in individual individual

chooses to balance certain equities in a case for example or which method of

statutory interpretation should be used but more basically judgment is about how

a person makes decision so I'd like to start by taking a look at some of your

writings and hopefully you can help me understand why you decided to write some

of these pieces for several years you're a regular contributor to your wife's

blog and I welcome her here you wrote a number of blog posts under

the pseudonym G Morris they made up name sinem how did you choose to which posts

right under a pseudonym I believe I wrote up all my posts under a pseudonym

okay use the G Morris alias when you wrote a series of posts about President

Obama that seemed to focus on the president's Kenyan heritage one of those

posts quotes freely from an article on world news daily from world news daily a

website known for peddling conspiracy theories fake news and white nationalism

world news daily was also well-known for trafficking in birtherism the widely

debunked and racist belief that President Obama was not born in the

United States the article you quote from suggested a reporter in Kenya was

detained by the government because he was the vest gating quote Barack Obama

as connections in the country what point were you trying to make in this post

does the post title brothers keepers as in the thing that keep that anti Obama

reporter in jail well first of all before getting into particular post I

have to tell the committee there are some things I've written on

the post or the blog that I wish I could phrase differently or said differently

at this point that particular post I don't recall all the details of it but

I was certainly not intending to endorse any views of another group as far as

birtherism goes I've never lost and several other posts you wrote you quote

from recite sources like world news daily had you decided which sources to

rely upon in your writings and how did you decide which sources were credible I

was as a blogger I was finding things that were in the news that were of note

I thought I wasn't intending to through the post to say that President Obama was

not born in this country I never how did you Nate that I what

could you answer my questions how did you decide which sources were credible

and you believe the world news daily is a credible source as I said when I was

doing the blog I've made some posts that I today would not would not do and I

don't I don't particularly recall that one what went into the decision to use

that particular story but I am not endorsing any of the birther viewpoints

of that particular person let me ask you again how did you decide which sources

were credible and how did you decide that world news daily is a credible

source I I don't know whether I decided that or not I just really cannot

remember so you were three feel free to put posts out that cited sources that

you knew we're not credible no senator I'm not

saying that what are you saying I'm saying that as a blogger I was making

political statements using sources that engaged in

fake news hate speech and my again what I was saying was is that I think we have

to when were confirming judges look at judgment and in my mind using my

judgment to confirm someone to the Circuit Court who fell free to blog

posts and can't answer what he how he decides whether to cite a a source or

not whether it's credible or not that's disturbing to me

Thank You mr. chairman

you

(Lynn Maderich) When I was a little girl,

I was downtown Minneapolis with my mother,

and in the window of a shop we walked by

was a beautiful porcelain statue of a rearing Arabian.

I fell in love.

♪ ♪

I have drawn as far back as I can remember.

And I know early on I was trying to draw horses.

I would put horses into school assignments.

♪ ♪

Horses are graceful,

they're powerful, they're very expressive,

and purely artistically,

drawing a horse in summer coat

is like drawing a human nude-- you have to get it right.

You've got to find the bone structure,

overlay it with the tendon and the muscle,

and then get the movement correct.

♪ ♪

I'm one of those little girls who loved horses

and never got over it.

I'm an artist who wears several hats.

One is traditional oil painter,

one is teacher of traditional oil

and one is commercial designer.

I've always loved the Arabian more than other breeds,

a number of artists do, it's an exotic-looking,

beautiful and graceful animal.

What my imaginative paintings portray

is the ancient desert heritage of the Bedouin,

the culture that bred the Arabian horse.

In the academic world,

imaginative painting just means you're doing a painting

of something you never saw in front of you,

and I have found a joy in creating those ideas

that I finally realized was like being a 10-year-old again.

A 10-year-old doesn't need a photograph to start drawing.

Give him crayons and a piece of white paper

and they're off to the races.

As humans, we respond to images.

Pictures work on a couple of levels, one is the narrative,

what is the subject about, and the other is the elements

that an artist thinks about in value and movement and line.

The light in this desert painting

is entirely about the brilliance of the desert sun

and the dark, cool interior of the tent,

and trying to find a balance that I can still bring my viewer

to the focal point of the man's extended hand

and the mare reaching for the date.

What I am looking for first after the subject is light.

If you couldn't see it, you couldn't paint it,

so it has to be about light first.

[bass, keyboard, and acoustic guitar play in bright rhythm]

I was an art major in college, but at the point I went through,

the focus was very much on contemporary forms.

And I tried for a while, to see if I might be excited

by something less realistic.

What I found out is, no, what really gets my chimes ringing

is trying to replicate nature, so when I found The Atelier,

it really was the answer to a dream

that I'd had all of my life,

someone to give me genuine instruction in realist work.

♪ ♪

The Atelier is a wonderful little jewel in Minneapolis

that teaches classic academic painting.

They use the methods that go back to the old masters

to help current students learn

how to portray nature very accurately.

When I graduated from The Atelier,

Cyd and Dale asked if I would continue with them

as an instructor, and I have been teaching

in one way or another with them ever since.

Okay, welcome to another afternoon of figure study.

If you're still looking to find form,

to find her gesture, find her proportions,

and as soon as you've got the basics working,

then start bringing in those shadow shapes,

'cause remember, you're painting light.

From the first time I walked into The Atelier,

I loved that the critiquing was individual.

So as I'm going around the room, I will give

10 different critiques if I have 10 different students,

because each one needs something else.

By the time you get to the shoulder blades,

you're wrapping away from the light.

The Atelier training

completely changed the way I look at a subject

and begin to portray it.

Think in terms of planes, that you've got

a plane of light coming out, you're moving into her waist.

Before The Atelier, no one ever walked up and said,

I feel the subject could step off the canvas,

or you're lighting is amazing, and now they do.

I thought it was going to be mostly about learning how to paint.

What they really did was teach me how to see.

♪ ♪

When I get the chance to look at horses,

particularly beautiful Arabians in person,

I am more likely to be studying the light on them, the colors.

I can't trust the camera to catch it,

I'd rather try to memorize what I'm seeing in life.

I just love nature,

and if I can do a painting where I have gotten

a reasonable facsimile of nature, I'm very happy.

Cedar Ridge Arabians is

one of the best breeding facilities in the country.

Are most of your babies born April?

They certainly start like mid January.

(Lynn) I was lucky enough to meet Dick and Lollie and Lara

approximately 38 years ago

when I was first getting started in equine art.

Here you go Lynn.

So this is the frame, oh.

Look beautiful? Fabulous choice.

To be able to do a painting of Lara on Matoi,

a stallion that was so special to her

and so successful for the farm

probably is the high point of the work I've done for them.

I can do a painting, and when the frame goes on,

it becomes better; it suddenly has this presentation to it.

I am incredibly lucky to be doing what I'm doing

because there isn't a point

that you reach the pinnacle, and you stop.

You constantly grow,

you constantly try to challenge yourself.

And I still surprise myself

at what I'm able

to put on a canvas.

The ability to do what I can do now is such a joy.

Why don't you show me some of the new bones?

Okay, yeah, I do have some new skeletons.

(Paul) Inspiration for my work can come in several ways.

Usually it's just by me closing my eyes, but it also can come

by discovering found objects out in the wild

or found objects in a place as humble as a garage sale,

even little stores on the corner down on Minnehaha Avenue.

[laughs]

It seems like pieces just pop up in strange ways,

it's like I can go by 8 or 9 different objects

and they won't interest me at all, but another one will be

oh, this will fit into a panorama I'm building,

2009-2016 F150 Raxiom 50" Double Row LED Light Bar Review & Install - Duration: 6:20.

Hey everybody I'm Justin with americanmuscle.com, and this is my detailed review of Raxiom's

50 inch double row LED light bar available for your 2009 to present F-150.

All right, guys, the 50 inch option from Raxiom is going to be for any F-150 owner out there

looking to add a ton of light output to his or her ride for a price that's going to be

very reasonable compared to your other big bar options available here on the site.

Make no mistake about it, guys, a light bar this big is destined for one spot and one

spot only on your F-150, and that is the roof.

If you're looking to throw a ton of light, you want a roof mounted option, hang out with

me a little bit longer as we break this thing down.

Raxiom is a company that's known to produce some pretty killer lighting and electronics

for a wide variety of vehicles, all backed by a very solid warranty.

The best part is they're not going to totally destroy your wallet in the process.

In fact, all of Raxiom's light bar options on americanmuscle.com are all backed by an

industry leading lifetime warranty.

If you're a person that's hard on your F-150, you spend a lot of time off road on the trails

or even on the work site, that lifetime warranty should definitely sound appealing.

That leads me to my first point.

If you're looking for some auxiliary lighting for your truck then chances are you're using

your truck, well, like a truck.

You've probably come to the realization that the factory lighting or even additional lighting

that you may have added up until this point just isn't cutting it on the trails, on the

beach, work site, wherever.

If you want a solid option here that, again, is going to throw a whole bunch of light,

the Raxiom 50 inch bar might just be the one for you.

The 50 inch Raxiom light bar is going to light up whatever you need to using a combination

of both spot and flood lighting, guys.

The center section here, 30 degree spotlights, these are going to throw a ton of light directly

in front of you a good amount of distance as well light up the darkest of trails.

The ends here are going to use 60 degree floodlights guys, again, just increasing your total light

output and throwing a whole bunch of light everywhere.

The source of all this light comes courtesy of the two rows of 50 Cree high intensity

LEDs making for 100 LED or diodes altogether putting out a ridiculous 18,000 lumens at

6000 color temperature.

The 6000 k is going to be a nice bright white with just a small touch of blue really helping

increase your overall visibility.

I do want to point out that those Cree LEDs are some of the best used in the industry

with a lifespan of up to 30,000 hours.

These Cree LEDs are going to have a number of benefits.

One of the biggest is the power draw or basically lack thereof, guys.

This huge bar is only going to draw 8 amps at 12 volts or 4 amps at 24 volts, so it's

not going to tax your charging system like a halogen or an HID might, especially if you

plan on using a couple of these at one time.

All right, guys, another area that Raxiom is going to excel in is overall build quality.

In fact, this thing's going to carry an Ingress Protection rating of a six for solids, that's

the highest available, and a seven for liquids which is the second highest available.

It's going to allow this thing to be immersed in up to a meter of water at any point and

you should be good to go, although I don't recommend you make a habit of that.

Again, LED lights for the most part are a very durable light, however they do have one

enemy and that is moisture.

Moisture, condensation, all that stuff will shorten the lifespan of the bulbs themselves.

To be getting that kind of protection and that kind of build quality from a light bar

that's going to be a fraction of the cost of some of your bigger name options here on

the site is pretty solid overall.

Diving even deeper into the construction, guys, you're going to find a durable die cast

aluminum for the overall build quality of the body along with a polycarbonate lens here.

That aluminum body has been powder coated with a textured black finish.

This is just going to help reduce any corrosion over the years while the light bar is installed

on your rig and help keep the light bar looking good for years to come.

In order to get that superior rating of IP 67, you have to imagine this thing's been

sealed up pretty good, and that's certainly the case when talking about the Raxiom.

Those Cree LEDs are hiding behind that polycarbonate lens and have been sealed off tightly preventing

any of that dust, dirt, water, mud or whatever from entering the housing and shortening the

lifespan of the bulbs themselves.

However, if you should encounter a problem, guys, Raxiom does have your back with their

industry leading lifetime warranty.

All right, guys, let's quickly touch on price.

Honestly, if you're checking this thing out then the price is probably what brought you

here in the first place.

At just around $500 this is by far and away your most affordable big LED bar option on

the site.

Sure, the Rigid might be slightly better in some categories, but as I've been telling

you the entire video, guys, this thing's built very well.

It's going to throw out a ton of light.

It certainly won't disappoint you.

I'm probably going to be telling you something you already know here, guys.

Whenever you install something like this on your rig, we don't recommend you use it on

the road because obviously you're going to be blinding some oncoming traffic.

When using the auxiliary lighting from Raxiom, just use your head and be mindful of other

drivers.

As for the install here, guys, my one small little nitpick with the Raxiom is the wiring

harness.

This is basically all they're giving you, guys.

There is an additional wiring harness available on the product page also from Raxiom for around

$20.

If you don't have a ton of experience with wiring, I'd recommend you pick this thing

up.

It's basically going to make the job a whole lot easier.

On the other hand if you have some experience with wiring and you have some basic components

laying around, basically a wiring relay, fuse switch, that sort of thing then you can probably

piece together your own harness for a lot cheaper.

All right, guys, as you can see, this thing does include two little feet here on the end.

Take my word for it, buy the corresponding bracket.

Yes, it's another $200, but it's the correct bracket for this application.

It's going to make for a clean install and it's going to hide the holes you do have to

drill underneath the weather stripping.

In addition to that, there is a small amount of wiring needed as we already talked about.

If you do buy that pre-wired harness from Raxiom, it will make life a whole lot easier.

Trust me.

Other than that, we'll call it two out of three wrenches on my difficult meter.

Really not a hard install here, but not everyone is a big fan of wiring.

That being said, this is a very basic job.

Power and ground install.

You will have to find a home for that switch inside the cab of your truck.

Of course don't forget your soldering iron and tips before you get started.

Guys, we've called this one an hour on the site, but with mounting the bar, running all

your wires and finding a home for that switch inside the truck I wouldn't be surprised if

it took you closer to two or three hours.

All right, guys, as for my final thoughts here with the Raxiom light bar option, again,

you're getting a ton of light output for not a lot of dough.

Yes, you do have to come out of pocket a little bit for some of those extras including the

brackets and of course the wiring, but overall you're still getting a bargain at the price

point and you're getting that lifetime warranty to boot.

Be sure to check out more options from Raxiom for your F-150 right here at americanmuscle.com.
