Mathsputin
A reclusive genius, Dr. Grigori Perelman, famously solved one of the world's most complicated math problems, the one-hundred-year-old Poincaré conjecture, and is now refusing to accept a $1 million prize from the Clay Mathematics Institute for doing so.The 44 year old man apparently prefers to live in St. Petersburg, Russia with his mom and sister, and has been given the nickname Mathsputin.
According to neighbors:"He always wears the same tatty coat and trousers. He never cuts his nails or beard. When he walks he simply stares at the ground, rather than looking from side to side."
"I was once in his flat and I was astounded. He only has a table, a stool and a bed with a dirty mattress which was left by previous owners — alcoholics who sold the flat to him."
However, there's no denying this man is a genius. Perelman solved the Poincaré conjecture in 2002, and it took YEARS for experts to confirm he was correct.
When reporters attempted to contact him, he responded, "You are disturbing me. I am picking mushrooms."
Matt&Papa, this one is for you.

Gnarcore.com presents: "PIECE" from Knabelkcorb on Vimeo.
So, don't know if you know, but Tens screened in whistler with this movie sometime in late january. I had to miss the party but I'm sure it was a night to remember. Canada makes the only snowboard videos worth watching... ever, and following in the tradition of the Whiskey's and 20-20, Gnarcore are the only cool snowboard vids at the moment. "Help is on the way" is my personal favorite due to an awesome storyline, wild music, minimal snowboarding and a bunch of Benny skating. This is the newest video "Piece", it fucking rules. E-man looks like he's really good on the longboard without trucks and wheels on snow, he's a nice dude, he even does tricks that I understand as a skatert . If you want crete shredding, kick it too 14:25 and see, Klink dink, dallas ives and a switch front 3 down MACBA. These guys kill it. In an older Gnarcore I have a skate part and in an even older one Benny skates naked in the whistler bowl. Enjoy.

It's too bad Arte, Figgy and Jon Dickson couldn't of made there way into these photos, to tie the crew together. I recently decided to recut the footage of the montreal trip, some of which I'm still searching for. I'll have it up soon, In honor of Jon's recent Official addition to the Deathwish party.
