I'm afraid this is about fear.
I grew up in an atmosphere of fear. My mother was afraid of snakes and swimming. Neither of these are particularly uncommon phobia, but both can be relatively crippling. No amount of negotiation caused her to waver, so swimming lessons were out of the question. Sadly, we learned to be afraid of the water ourselves. My sisters seem to have overcome the fear of swimming. I'm not sure where the fork in the road came that caused me to carry on my mother's fear of water, but it turns out that I need to stay away from water. Just so you understand that statement, I am a neck breather, so swimming is next to impossible for me. There are some neck breathers who swim by purchasing various gear that prevents water from getting into their stoma, (the hole in the neck that allows laryngectomees to breathe), but even then, it's a dicey situation.
I'm not nearly as panicked by snakes as my mother was, but I wouldn't want to come face to fang with one in any sort of surprise scenario.
There's plenty in life that we can be afraid of. When I went to Vietnam, I was sure that I would not return. Even if I did manage to live through my term of service, I thought the chance of returning with all of my limbs intact was rather unlikely. I admit that I arrived in Vietnam with a fairly gloomy outlook for my future, but after I managed to get through the initial period of shifting from one reception center to the next and finally receiving my assignment, I remember thinking that if this was my last day on earth, I would not let it be clouded with self-doubt and sadness. I guess one would call this my coming of age. Since that day, I have chosen to live relatively unaffected by fear.
There is no point to fear that immobilizes. I'm more afraid of immobility than I am of whatever might cause me reluctance to live freely. Fear can be a good thing, and to live totally without a modicum of fear can be dangerous. I look both ways before crossing the street. I try to make sensible decisions about the things I do in my life. I watch out for the other driver. He or she could be worse than me.
There are always "what if" situations. In my mother's declining years, she was afraid that she would run out of money and end up on the street. I remember her riding in the car with me at one point. She was crying because she was worried about her finances. She voiced the fear that she would be homeless and living on the street. I was actually offended. I explained that she had three children, and we were simply not going to allow that to happen. I also pointed out that, as we drove, we saw no elderly people wrapped up in blankets and living propped against a curb.
Fear is a real thing, and it can be debilitating. For me, I'd prefer to take a chance on the "what if," most of the time. There is, of course, a difference between living without allowing fear to dominate one's every decision or living recklessly. I'm not a reckless person.
It's also important to realize that we have no control over some things. I have a relative who worries constantly about the weather. Most phone calls start with, "Are you alright?" The other option is "Are you having any weather?" Yes, of course, there's always weather. If the tornado siren is blaring, I'm aware that it's not a good time for a picnic, but neither do I run to hide in the basement in response to every cloud that darkens the sky.
I guess I've always felt that when my number is up, I need to be ready to go. We don't really have any control over that. We can keep ourselves healthy in favor of warding off quite a few of the risks that might otherwise befall us.
I think that this might be the definition of faith. I have faith that I am ready to go when I am taken, but I'm not volunteering. That seems sensible to me.
Post Script: Lest you think otherwise, I wrote this prior to toast that Vice President Biden made, recognizing President Obama for the absence of fear.

"Les Nabis: French Prophets of Modern Art, A Selection from the Robert L. Hoskins and Erwin A. Raible Collection of Fin de Siècle French Prints. A Gift of Elaine Rutowski Shay."
"Caudieux: Petit Casino", Toulouse-Lautrec, Original Lithograph, 1893, Giclée Reproduction, 2011
Date and TimeMonday, October 14, 2013
7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.
- West Wall Gallery, L. V. Eberhard Center
The word "Nabis" means prophet in Hebrew and Arabic and was a term applied to a rebellious group of young art students at the Académie Julian in Paris, France. The poet Henri Cazalis (1840 - 1909) coined the term "Les Nabis" by drawing parallels between these artists, who aimed to revitalize painting much as the ancient Jewish prophets rejuvenated Israel. This movement set an avant-garde pace for art, one that was distinctly different from the Impressionist painters who used small, thin brush strokes to emphasize accurate depictions of light. Erv Raible began collecting when he and his business partner opened cabaret and piano bar style clubs in New York City. A critical question they faced was, "what should the club's ambiance be?" One of the clubs Raible revitalized had chandeliers that resembled Moulin Rouge in the 1890s and Raible quickly thought of the artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Fin de siècle French prints became the collectors' focus. GVSU acquired this collection of French Prints in 2009 and has made numerous reproductions since for display purposes. This French print collection today may be found on the GVSU Allendale Campus, Robert C. Pew Grand Rapids Campus, and the Detroit Center.
Free and open to the public. The West Wall Gallery in located on the second floor of the L. V. Eberhard Center, 301 Fulton Street West, Robert C. Pew Grand Rapids Campus. For more information call the GVSU Art Gallery at (616) 331-2563 or visit: www.gvsu.edu/artgallery/

The theory behind it is so old that the locals might mistakenly think it's been part of the area all along. The neighborhood, after all, has shown its artistic side since its founding in 1887 (if you call mail fraud —which landed then-Ocean Beach real estate trader and San Diego Mayor William Carson in jail — an art).
In recent decades, the venue has hosted commerce in the visual arts, outdoor recitations of passages from American history, staged readings and even a theater company that sold out a season's worth of shows.
But organizers behind the nonprofit Ocean Beach Center for the Arts said they intend to become exactly what the name implies — a focal point for the community's artistic prowess, which until now has existed catch-as-catch-can.
The center, at 4944 Newport Ave., has put in a modest recording studio and maintains the fledgling Ocean Beach Playhouse after having taken over the old Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1392 bar and thrift shop space two years ago.
"More than anything," said director-proprietor Lynne Bolton of Point Loma, "we're looking for a resident theater group. I've painted scenery at The [Old] Globe [Theatre] and I love it, but that's not my idea of rising to the occasion. And the recording studio has been great for kids who want to spend the $200 on a CD and market their bands.
"But we've been around Ocean Beach for 30 years, and we've seen its potential for the arts with all these eclectic people and businesses," she said. "What we want to do is give OB a really good name in the arts."
It's not as though Bolton is starting from scratch. She's brought in Oceanside theater troupe Different Stages, which divides its performance time between the Playhouse and Swedenborg Hall in University Heights.
Her address' extra-wide hallway serves as a makeshift art gallery, at which hang works for sale. And she and her husband, Paul, owner of the local landmark Electric Chair hair salon since the early 1980s, sought to give the neighborhood an arts identity in the late 1990s by launching a weekend exhibit program similar to North Park's wildly successful Ray at Night artwalk.
The latter idea fizzled after several months — but Denny Knox, executive director of Ocean Beach MainStreet Association, said it wasn't for lack of trying.
"[Bolton's effort] was a lot of work," Knox said. "The merchants thought it was a lot of trouble, and everybody just got tired and lost interest."
So what's the attitude 15 years later?
"We've turned a lot of things around," Knox said. "Now, [the merchants] talk about how they love the arts and everybody wonders why there aren't more of them."
For 25 years, Knox herself was the owner of the former Cabrillo Art Center art gallery and picture framer, now a local shell and gift shop.
"But the arts center," Knox said, "is in the same position [the] MainStreet [merchants group] was in when we founded it in 1978. We started out with a few businesses that first year. Now, we have 525."
Those same merchants serve a community of nearly 30,000. But they didn't all join overnight. Growth is slow, and it can also stunt itself. The Wild Parrot Players theater group, held together with nothing more than a wad of spit, hope and gum, put up a season of plays in 2001-02, reportedly selling out every single show. The future of theater in Ocean Beach looked brighter than ever until realities like funding and the grueling nonprofit application process set in. The Players would never perform again.
But amid its use of all art forms, theater is in a unique position to help rally visual and performance staff to Bolton's cause, hence her desire to recruit a company.
The Playhouse sports a 100-seat gallery, modest table seating along the periphery and an extremely basic and limited fly space area.
Meanwhile, Bolton said, "We have everything we need to become a thriving arts community. We have the beach, we have the walkability and we have the history."
And now, it has the driving force.

No. 9 Mendon tops No. 1 Climax-Scotts 51-50 on Tuesday
No. 1 went down Tuesday night in Mendon.
The Hornets, ranked ninth in the newest Class D boy's basketball poll, hosted No. 1 Climax-Scotts and sent the Panthers home with a 51-50 defeat.
"The crowd was fantastic tonight and it's always nice to play at home," Mendon coach David Swanwick said. "We played them tough last year and that game was close. We played a great game tonight and I'm so excited for our kids."
The win over Climax was the first for Swanwick over the Panthers in his career.
"They are a solid team and this is just, this is awesome," Swanwick said, collecting his thoughts. "When two good teams play the score is often close and that was the case tonight. We had two good, athletic teams going at it so we knew the score was going to be close."
Early in the contest, it was clear the officials were letting both teams play. An up and down, fast-paced style saw both teams, who like to run, play wide open.
The game was tied at 14 after one quarter of action.
Climax continued the pace in the second quarter and had their highest output of the game with 17 points.
Mendon's Andy Brueck, at just 6-feet tall, was batting hard inside with the Panthers' front line of two 6-foot-8 players and 6-6 Luis Kramer. Brueck had multiple offensive rebounds and putbacks in the second quarter for Mendon, but Climax led 31-27 heading into the locker room.
"Andy worked his tail off tonight, he had a double-double and he was giving up 8-inches the entire night to those guys so that was incredible for us," Swanwick said. "But he wasn't the only one. Our entire team came together and played their tails off tonight."
In the third, Mendon chipped away and took the lead. The Hornets held a 16-12 advantage in the third quarter and both teams headed to the fourth tied at 43.
Malachi Satterlee, one of the 6-8 players for Climax, scored five of the team's seven points in the fourth quarter.
Erik Batten hit a crucial bucket late in the game for Mendon, putting the pressure completely on Climax, who was unable to get control of the contest late.
Mendon played well enough defensively, despite missing the front end of two 1-and-1's, to pick up the upset at home.
"I'm completely excited for our kids and our community," Swanwick said. "Climax-Scotts is a great team and I think we're a pretty good team, too."
Satterlee led all scorers with 24 points and was the only Climax player in double figures. Aaron Cook added seven.
Both are double figure scorers and Cook, who averages 18 points per game, was held scoreless in the second half.
Mendon was led in scoring by Erik Batten with 16. Zach Darmofal chipped in 13 while Brueck had 10 points and 11 rebounds.
Joe Gales connected for eight points while both Marcus Craft and Kaleb McCarroll had two points.
Mendon shot just 1-of-18 (5.6 percent) from the 3-point line in the win.
"Hey, we'll take that with the effort we had tonight," Swanwick said with a laugh.
The Hornets will take to the road on Friday night, where they'll have a chance to wrap up the SJV title while playing at White Pigeon.
"We need to continue to work in practice heading up to that game because it's always tough to play there," Swanwick said of playing the Chiefs Friday. "But that game is a chance for us to win the league outright."
Galesburg 56, Constantine 33
Galesburg-Augusta battled tough and picked up a 56-33 road win over Constantine on Tuesday night.
The Rams were able to hold the Falcons to just three first quarter points and led 10-3 after eight minutes. Galesburg was able to add 17 more in the second compared to 12 for Constantine to lead 27-15 at the break.
Galesburg held advantages of 14-6 in the third and 15-12 in the fourth to win.
The Falcons were led by Cody Ley's 11 points while Bruce Heslet chipped in eight. Mike Harris tossed in six points, Luhk Mullendore added five, Perry White had two points and Lonnie Wright added a free throw for the Falcons, who are now 4-13 overall and 4-12 in KVA action.
K-zoo Cougars 75, Centreville 63
The Centreville boy's basketball team dropped a 75-63 decision to the Kalamazoo Cougars on Tuesday night.
The Cougars led 20-12 after the first eight minutes and took a 30-22 advantage into the locker room at halftime.
Centerville had a good third quarter with 21 points, but the Cougars scored 26 and led 56-43 heading into the final eight minutes.
The Bulldogs held a 20-19 advantage in the fourth quarter, but it was not enough.
Chris Chupp led with 18 points while Jon Peckinpaugh added 14 and Matt Clementz tossed in 12 poinds.
Adding eight points was Kalvin Ludwig while Eli Schwartz chipped in seven and Kellen Kirkham had four points.
DeKalb 53, Lakeland 42
Lakeland out-scored DeKalb 16-7 in the opening quarter but fell 53-42 on Tuesday night.
DeKalb battled back, but trailed 24-21 at the break before holding an 18-10 advantage in the third to lead 39-34 heading into the final quarter.
Spencer Mortola led with 16 points while Chandler Mynhier added 10. Chipping in with six points was Mitch Herber while Brant Betts added four points.
Daemyn Priestley and Dustin Cunningham each had two points.
Covert 50, White Pigeon 44
The White Pigeon boy's basketball team fell to 8-8 on the season with a 50-44 loss to Covert on Monday.
The Chiefs trailed 15-13 after one quarter and 28-22 at the break. Covert held on to their lead, 38-34, heading into the fourth quarter.
Robbie Gibson led White Pigeon with 13 points.
Mitchell Moore added 10, Dylan Hochstetler had eight points and Branson Salyer had six. Adding four points and 15 rebounds was Matt Crowl while Matt Eger had three points.

These shepherds knew something about sacrifice
Angels were everywhere in the Christmas story.
Usually, their appearances made sense.
It was a good idea to let Mary know that she was going to carry the Christ child and to let Zechariah know his wife was pregnant with a baby that would become John the Baptist.
It certainly didn't seem like a bad idea to reassure Joseph that Mary hadn't betrayed him, but the child she was carrying was not, in fact, something that should bring him shame. And when the angel told Joseph he better flee with his family Egypt it probably saved Jesus' life. Then, of course, an angel told him they could return home.
But the other instance when the Bible mentions angels in the Christmas story doesn't follow the same logic.
In Luke 2, the story is recalled of an angel visiting some shepherds to tell them the messiah had been born.
Verses 8 through 12 say, "And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
It turned out to be true. The shepherds went into Bethlehem and found the scene just as the angel said they would.
But why would the angel come to a group of shepherds?
Shepherds were the guys who couldn't get other jobs. They were a rough group.
Even David who went on to be King, started as a shepherd. He showed how tough being a shepherd was when he was a young boy preparing to fight Goliath he was able to say he had killed a lion and killed a bear and he would kill this Philistine in the same way.
That's a rough kid. That's a shepherd. That's the kind of guys the angel chose to tell about the birth of Jesus.
It had been 400 years since the last word of the Old Testament was written. So when the angels came to them, even the most religious shepherds would have been unlikely to expect news of a messiah.
So why did the angels choose the shepherds? I think these shepherds might have been a little different than the men who tended sheep and gave shepherds their bad reputations.
These shepherds knew something about sacrifice.
They tended their flocks just miles from the temple in Jerusalem and many of their lambs would likely be purchased by travelers who end up being offered as atonement for sins.
If you read down a little past the Christmas story, you see when the couple presented Jesus in the temple according to custom, Simeon gave them a blessing that had be difficult to take. In verse 34, he told them, "This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too."
You won't see that sentiment in many Hallmark's baby shower cards.
Much like the shepherds who knew the sheep they cared for would be sacrificed for the forgiveness of sins, the same fate on a much different scale faced Mary and Joseph. This child was the greatest blessing ever given. But, His sacrifice would pierce Mary's soul even though it would bring redemption.
The joyous Christmas story that we still retell during celebrations two thousand years later wasn't as happy for the parents of the Messiah. We all start dying the minute we are born, but few of us have the appointment with death that Jesus did.
Without Easter Sunday, the Christmas story would just be another tale about a baby born in difficult circumstances.
It was the ending that made the beginning a reason to celebrate.

I set ambitious goals for the newspaper last year.
Have you ever seen Fever Pitch? The Farrelly Brothers Red Sox comedy is on my "I miss Boston" movie list, which also includes the obscure Second Sight starring John Larroquette and Bronson Pinchot, the 1975 World Series DVD and filmed-in-Boston Police Academy 4: Citizen on Patrol.
When the loveable Red Sox-obsessed Ben (played by Jimmy Falon) invites Lindsey (Drew Barrymore) to her first Red Sox game, he says one of the reasons why he's always loved baseball is "You can have a lucky day, sure, but you can't have a lucky career. It's a little like math. It's orderly. Win or lose, it's fair. It all adds up."
For Ben, and every other baseball fan on the planet, statistics tell us who is had a great season and who didn't because we have over a hundred games to look at. Sure, a player might have a good game here or there, but a player's true measure is his seasonal and career stats.
This was the motivation behind my compiling statistics on all Kiowa County Signals published in 2012.
I set ambitious goals for the newspaper last year. I wanted to be more inclusive of the county as a whole. I wanted to focus on community events and local government. I also wanted the paper to look good and continue its "ultra-local" focus.
To find out if I reached those goals, I had to look at the annual numbers. Pick up a single copy of The Signal and there might be a lot of photos and local stories, but the true measure is found from a 52-week analysis.
I've also included statistics from 2011. This provided a frame of reference that helped me compare and contrast certain aspects of the paper. It is not a judgment call on previous editors or previous years of the newspaper, on the contrary 2011 was a transitional year for the paper and so perhaps the numbers are a bit lower than average.
Lets take a look at some of more interesting statistics from last year.
The first thing I noticed was the 50 percent cover story statistic.
I think a small town newspaper should be able to cover a wide variety of topics and be diverse. I hoped to feature community stories and "hard" news stories equally, but I didn't think it would be that equal.
Reporting on news and local government is a very important part of the job, but some of my favorite stores from last year were community features. The pinewood derby, Jack Carson's collapsible cup collection and story about Jean Harlow's Haviland ancestry were some of my favorites.
Say Cheese
It is mind boggling to me that nearly 800 local photos were published in The Signal last year. That is more than 15 local photos per week on average.
Those numbers include photos of check donations, photos that accompanied stories and large photo sections like homecoming, the 5-year anniversary weekend, Halloween and Christmas and doesn't include stock photos or wire photos.
I was also curious about how many total photos I might have taken last year. My memory card file counter rolls over every 9,999 photos and last year it rolled over twice. I probably took nearly 18,000 photos last year.
About 8-10 percent of published photos were reader submitted and I'd like to see that number increase next year.
What is in a Dateline?
The place where a story happens, or a "dateline," can track the breadth of news coverage. While there is always room for improvement, I am very happy with the amount of countywide stories we were able to cover this year.
I went where the stories took me and I am glad they took me to all of the towns in the county, even Belvedere and Wellsford!
While it may look like Greensburg was the overwhelming focus of stories, it is the county seat and the location of the high school, which can skew the numbers a bit.
I also want to explain the "other" dateline statistic. This statistic tracks the stories we ran about the people and businesses of Kiowa County and their impact on other communities. Those stories were as varied as an out-of-town sporting event, a college achievement or members of our community doing meaningful things in other cities and towns.
A Community on Notice
We were able to publish 257 free community notices last year. Those notices are for non-profit or "community focused" events. Whether it was a fundraiser to pay a loved one's medical bills, a Red Cross blood drive or to celebrate a birthday or wedding anniversary, these notices helped keep people in touch with each other. We were able to publish these notices in large part thanks to the support of our paid advertisers.
Keep the Faith and Values
Another goal was to have local content on our Faith & Values page every week. We ran 49 weeks of content from local pastors and members of our local faith-community last year. Terry Mayhew almost single handedly authored that page and as a community we should thank him for his hard work. Jeff Blackburn, Donnie Hinshaw and Fred Weir were all contributors as well. I'd like to see more members of our church community contribute on a regular basis and maybe that will happen this year.
Overall, The Signal moved in a positive direction last year and I am looking towards 2013, hoping to improve on the 2012 numbers. I want The Signal to always be at the forefront of local issues and events.
While The Signal is not who I am, it is what I do and I am very proud of my professional achievements last year. I am grateful for the members of the community that have embraced me.
I am also grateful for the people who still see the need for a community newspaper in Kiowa County. Many towns have lost their local newspapers and it is a testament to you, that The Signal is still here, going strong.
I am looking forward to another wonderful year serving the people of Kiowa County.
Where will my stories take me this year?

The vast majority of the engines do not block Google Translate. You might come across with the issue of using proxies though, — they can break functionality of some of the websites.
4. Alternative method to unblock tiny18tube.com — use DNS servers
Domain Name Servers (DNS) makes it possible to find a way from your device to the website you are willing to access, to their servers. In order to perform internet filtering DNS are often hijacked. The default settings of the computers are configured to using ISP servers, which in their turn are provided by ISP. You have an option of changing this setting and to start using DNS, which are being operated by a neutral party and are absolutely free of any censorship that will close some websites from you.
If you would like to check if your computer settings have DNS based filters on, you would need to do the following:
Procedure for Windows:
Step 1. Open Menu
Step 2. Select «Run»
Step 3. Type «cmd»
Step 4. Press «Enter» button.
Procedure for MAC:
Step 1. Run Terminal from Applications
Step 2. Select «Utilities»
Step 3. When consoles window opens type «ping tiny18tube.com»
Step 4. Press «Enter»
You will see the number, which will be the IP of the tiny18tube.com server for example. The number will be in square brackets. In case you see numbers, like 18.104.22.168, 188.8.131.52, it means you DNS requests are hijacked.
There is a way out to avoid that. You can simply switch to Google public DNS, given that the filter doesn't apply several methods to block at the same time.
C:\Documents and Settings\User>ping tiny18tube.com Pinging tiny18tube.com [220.127.116.11] with 32 bytes of data
If you are up to changing the DNS servers, you would need to have administrative rights, which allows to make changes on your computer.
5. Using Hola Unlimited Free VPN Service for unblocking the websites
Google Chrome and Firefox Extensions, Hola Unlimited Free VPN (hola.org ) allows to access video channels, like CBS, Pandora, Netflix in those countries which are blocked in your current location.

8. Setting encrypted tunnel — another option to unblock
Using encrypted tunnel implies that all of your traffic will be encrypted and sent via a remote server or several remote servers. The local network administrator, ISP and the government will not the able to track it. It will become invisible for the filters.
Most popular technologies to use encrypted channels — VPN
Virtual Private Network or VPN imitates the LAN connection between your device and the other part server. All the traffic is redirected via this connection. One of the benefits of using this type of connection is that any action performed by the programs on your computer that connects with Internet does it via the encrypted channel.
In comparison to other alternative methods using VPN is a faster way to connect. There are number of free sources for VPN connection, but the speed of such services may be too far from a good one. In order to get a really good VPN connection you would have to pay. If you are ready to purchase a good VPN service, here is the one we recommend. (https://www.hidemyass.com/)
There is another option of using free VPN connection, known as Tor. This is a volunteer — ran network, anonymous one.

Urgent! Uffda kitties and puppies need furever homes!
Several weeks ago the Uffda Fund was informed about an animal overcrowdng situation. Several people were engaged in cross-breeding dogs with the ill-conceived plan of raising and selling small breed puppies. A friend of these folks approached Uffda for help. Apparently no one was working in the home and they could not afford to buy pet food. We were told there were several puppies and their mother, when in fact we soon found out the truth. Upon further investigation it became clear that there were really 3 breeding females, 1 intact male, a new born litter of 5 puppies fathered by another male as well as 4 older pups. We were very fortunate that one of our foster parents agreed to take on the older pups and their mom. Adoptions are now under way. In the meantime we are attempting to persuade the family to allow Uffda to spay, neuter and find permanent homes for the remaining dogs. These are not cruel people - they are, however, misguided in thinking that a mini-puppy factory is a way of making a living. If there is someone interested in fostering and/or adopting one or more of these little guys more information is availalble at www.petfinder.com on the Uffda Fund page ND20.

Frank and Ollie wrote a book to explain the importance of visual story telling in cartoons, and detailed Disney writing procedures and their philosophy of cartoon storytelling.
I'm not a big fan of Disney stories, but I'm in complete agreement with the methods they used to write them. These methods evolved naturally. If you put a bunch of cartoonists together and tell them to start making cartoons, they will by their very nature, start drawing up gags and pitching them to each other.
I've worked in every imaginable cartoon system. I worked from scripts written by non-cartoonists. I've written scripts and collaborated with other cartoonists on scripts. This worked much better than working from non-artist scripts, but was still clunky. On Mighty Mouse we went from artist-collaborated scripts to drawing tiny storyboards - pre-printed a few panels per page.
When I finally got to do everything my way on Ren and Stimpy, we eventually started drawing storyboards on larger individual panels because we could easily change the order of scenes and insert new ideas and continuity and basically sculpt the stories into shape with the input of other good story artists and the reactions from pitch meetings. This method was the most fruitful and we discovered this directly through experience and trial and error. Just like all the classic cartoon studios did.
We learned by natural progress the most logical and efficient way to make our cartoons.
Certain procedures tend to create themselves for certain fields - naturally, like convergent evolution.
There may be many different styles and creative approaches to classical music, but all composers use the same language to write their very different pieces. They use musical bar sheets and musical notation. It makes sense. It would not make sense to try to write music in prose descriptions. Only a non-musician could find any sense in this. You might like Beethoven better than Tchaikovsky, but you wouldn't argue about the medium they used to write their music.
That's the same way storyboards and ex sheets arose in animation. They evolved through utility. They made sense and gave the artists much more creative control and creative choices for our medium.
Many animators and studios and directors create different types of cartoons and humor and stories, but they are pretty much all in agreement in the working tools that give us the most creative control over our cartoons.
Frank and Ollie are very analytic and clearly explain not only their working methods and principles of entertainment, but also their philosophy of entertainment in cartoons. They did it with their 12 principles of animation in The Illusion of Life, and they did it for story in "Too Funny For Words".
"Walt was never interested in structure"
It would be hard to find animators today who don't long to go back to the creative system that produced the films that inspired them to draw in the first place.
Lots more insight from Frank and Ollie into the Disney story philosophy and procedures to come...

Recent court documents show that Tyler Scott Garren was 17 at the time this story was originally published.
It was nearly one year ago when the lives of five teens were upended after an alcohol-fueled party.
Four were charged with felony rape. One suffered from post traumatic stress disorder. Two appeared on a syndicated daytime talk show. And now there seems to be no end in sight for the case of four students accused of raping a classmate that landed in the national spotlight.
Prosecutors with the office of State Attorney General Roy Cooper, who took over the case in August, appeared in Henderson County Superior Court on Monday. Noelle Talley, public information officer for the N.C. Department of Justice, said they were unable to set a date for even the next administrative court setting, let alone a date for trial.
James "Matt" Bishop, 17, Joseph Vincent Curto, 18, Tyler Scott Garren, 18, and Justin Wesley Ponder, 18, who were all minors at the time of the incident were charged as adults with felony second-degree rape. The victim, who was 16 at the time, told investigators that three of the young men raped her while she was in and out of consciousness on a couch at Garren's home during a party Dec. 8.
All four of the accused admitted to having sex with her, but said it was consensual, according to search warrants.
In an effort to stress her son's innocence, Dianne Bishop reached out to the "Dr. Phil" show. Matt Bishop, flanked by his parents, appeared in a two-part series that featured the case, Bishop's story and what the victim recalled of the night.
On the show, Matt Bishop defended himself by saying the girl was fully aware of what she was doing at the party, where the group downed a bottle-and-a-half of liquor. He said she initiated sex with him and then asked for more, so he returned to his friends and recruited her next partner.
The girl told "Dr. Phil" McGraw that she woke up to Bishop getting off of her, while the other guys stood around her in their underwear. She said she had no memory of what happened until almost two days later, when she realized someone had erased from her phone the text messages she had exchanged with the boys about the party.
All of the teens were students of East Henderson High School at the time of the incident, but have since transferred to different schools. The victim told "Dr. Phil" that she has suffered from PTSD since the incident.
If convicted of their felony rape charges, the teens could face up to four years and 10 months in prison and a possible sex offender status.

Saintseneca Release Video For "Visions"
The band Saintseneca debuts a video for their song "Visions" today via Stereogum. The track is from the young band's recent digital EP which Time Out Chicago described as "anchored by soaring choruses that seem tailor-made for a good, old-fashioned shout-along" and Pitchfork.com wrote, "When the instruments fade out and Little howls, it's more of a gut punch than an uppercut." The band's anticipated full length album Dark Arc will arrive in stores April 1st of 2014.
The video for "Visions" offers a stirring montage that plays like the nostalgic memories of a troubled soul, the imagery perfectly complimenting the songs dynamic mix of re-imagined folk and post punk. Watch the video href="http://www.stereogum.com/1594682/saintseneca-visions-video-stereogum-premiere/video/">here>.
Saintseneca is led by singer-songwriter and multi instrumentalist Zac Little who originally hails from rural Appalachia. Following in the footsteps of heartland bands who have sought to twist the music of the old weird America into new shapes – from the Violent Femmes to Neutral Milk Hotel – Saintseneca perform songs that sound both familiar and uniquely original. The group utilizes a wide range of acoustic instrumentation with more contemporary elements such as synthesizers and electric guitars to create a seamless blend of soaring vocals and vibrant post-punk energy.

About KL International Airport
Launched in 1998, KL International Airport (KLIA) is one of the Southeast Asia's major aviation hubs. Located at the top of the southern corridor of Peninsular Malaysia, bordering the states of Selangor and Negeri Sembilan, the airport is approximately 50km from the capital city of Kuala Lumpur. A good network of highways and expressways links KLIA to the rest of Peninsular Malaysia.
In May 2014, a brand-new terminal, klia2, was opened at KLIA just 2 km away from KLIA's main terminal building and accessible via the same network of highways and expressways that links the airport to surrounding major cities. klia2 is the world's largest purpose-built terminal dedicated for low-cost carriers.
KLIA possesses world standard facilities and is equipped to accommodate the Airbus A380, the world's largest passenger aircraft. A huge variety of international and local retail brand and duty-free outlets, cafés, restaurants, as well as premium passenger lounges are available at the airport for your travelling convenience and comfort. It is a passenger-friendly airport with improved facilities to ease the flow of passengers, keep you entertained while waiting for your flights and provide a seamless travelling experience for everyone.
KLIA has three runways that run at approximately 4,000m length each to serve both the main terminal and klia2 terminal. The airport can handle up to 75 million passengers and is connected to over 100 destinations worldwide. KLIA has matured into a model airport and is fast emerging as the gateway of choice in the region.
Apart from travelling by car or other modes of public transportations to go to KLIA, passengers can ride the high-speed train KL Ekspres and KLIA Transit by Express Rail Link (ERL). Both KLIA Ekspress and KLIA Transit connect KLIA from the City Air Terminal (CAT) at KL Sentral, where departing passengers can check-in for their outbound flights before boarding the train for KLIA. Travel time between KL Sentral and KLIA's Main Terminal Building is only 28 minutes on the KLIA Ekspres and 37 minutes on the KLIA Transit. Passengers can get to klia2 from main terminal building via a 3-minute inter-terminal train ride with the same ERL system.

Saranac, Lakewood move on to district semis
Despite a third-quarter run by the Bees of Bath, the Pewamo-Westphalia girls basketball team utilized its opportunities at the free-throw line to escape with a 39-29 victory.
"We got impatient on offense and made some unnecessary passes that Bath took advantage of in the third," Pirate coach Steve Eklund said. "Fortunately, we shot very well from the free-throw line tonight."
P-W finished 13-of-18 from the charity stripe and made all seven of its attempts in the fourth quarter.
The Pirates took a 24-12 lead into the half before the Bees went on a 12-5 run in the third quarter to get back in the game. Heading into the fourth, P-W held a 29-24 lead.
Kylee Schneider led the Lady Pirates with 12 points.
P-W (17-4) will be back in action on its home court on Wednesday when it takes on Dansville in the district semifinals.
Saranac 61, Wellspring Prep 19
GRANDVILLE— The Redskins gave up only six points in the first half Monday night en route to a district-opening win.
Sadie Guernsey led Saranac with 12 points and six rebounds, while Kendall Seiler finished with 11 points and five steals. Betsy Simpson earned 10 points and Kaylee Hardy chipped in with seven points, eight rebounds and five assists.
The Redskins (8-13) will take on Covenant Christian on Wednesday in the district semifinals back at Calvin Christian High School.
Lakewood 34, T-K 31
MIDDLEVILLE — The Vikings rallied from a six-point deficit late in the fourth quarter Monday night to earn a three-point victory over the host Trojans of Thornapple-Kellogg in the first round of district play.
The Vikings used their press to turn the game around over the final four minutes. The comeback was complete when Taylor VantLand hit a shot from the wing to put Lakewood up by two in the final moments.
Emily Kutch paced the Lady Vikes with 11 points and nine rebounds. VantLand finished with six points, while Brooke Wieland scored seven points to go along with seven rebounds and two assists.
Ellie Reynolds chipped in with four points, two assists and two steals, while Liz Campeau finished with four points and 10 rebounds.
Lakewood (6-15) will take on Hastings in the first district semifinal on Wednesday at T-K High School.

St. Lucia is a lush, tropical Caribbean island in the West Indies, catering to all walks of life, from sun-soaking resort visitors to more-adventurous villa dwellers.
As we descended into Vieux Fort at the southern tip of the island, I was immediately taken in by the mysterious, jagged views of the Pitons, the renowned mountain peaks that were featured in the movie Superman II.
Our destination was Soufriere (pronounced sue-FREE), a fishing village on the west coast, known for its wide range of unique attractions and rustic charm. Soufriere boasts two beautiful beaches -- Jalousie and Anse Chastanet -- the world's only drive-in volcano, waterfalls and cocoa plantations.
The vast green-blue stretches of the Caribbean extended to our left, while the road snaked up and down rolling hills covered in miles of lush rainforest. Coconuts, palm trees, mangoes, tamarinds and banana trees all flew past our window, as our driver took the neck-breaking turns like a rally racer.
Skirting around the rugged west coastline, our cab driver gave us the names of the little villages we drove through as we headed west: Laborie, La Fargue, Choiseul. Most names of villages, towns and bays come from the French, who fought the British over possession of the island from 1651 to 1814.
Each side ruled the island seven times, with the British finally securing dominance over St. Lucia, which remains a part of the Commonwealth. Thus, islanders speak both English and Patois or broken French.
The Villas
It was 32 C at 4:10 p.m. when we arrived at the Stonefield Estate Villas, which had once been a plantation. We caught the tail end of the wet season: short showers with tiny drops, lasting only a few minutes.
Stonefield, five minutes uphill from Soufriere, entices travellers with private villas, pools and, for the cooking enthusiasts, even your own kitchen. The walk to our villa was quite steep, like most areas on the island.
Our villa was beautiful, breezy, air-conditioned, with a kitchen and ocean view, complete with its own small, private pool. We had a generous veranda with a hammock and a secluded yard area, where one could enjoy breakfast, lounge by the pool or take in the panoramic view of the Caribbean Sea, framed by the Petit Piton to the left and a mixture of banana, coconut, palm and mango trees to the right.
In the Caribbean, the sun sets at 6 p.m. and, as everything sank in complete darkness, we were immediately surrounded by a cacophony of sounds. Birds, crickets and tree frogs, all making their noises, made my earplugs a necessity.
Our room had screens and slat windows, but no glass, typical features of accommodations on the island.
The next morning, the sound of gentle rainfall and the whooshing of the gigantic banana tree leaves woke us up. We enjoyed baguettes and nutmeg jam as part of our Creole breakfast at The Mango Tree Restaurant, which draws you in with gorgeous views and nightly specials, including a delectable vegetarian menu.
Jalousie Beach
Stonefield offers free shuttles to Jalousie Beach, a 10-minute drive south of the estate. The beach is nestled between the two steep peaks, known as the Gros and Petit Pitons. There is a narrow strip of white, warm sand, but the entrance to the green waters is rocky. The area is divided by a boating dock, and the marine reserve area to the right of the beach is open for free snorkelling.
Swim a few dozen feet from the shore and you are in a snorkellers' paradise. Schools of needle, puffer, trumpet, parrot and damsel fish, as well as chromis, the occasional sea snake and lobster, await you.
Jalousie Plantation Beach Resort charges $20 US for renting a beach chair; however, the beach is public and guests can use it freely. The Bayside Bar & Grill was not open the day we came, although lunch is supposedly served at noon. There was, however, a small beach bar offering limited snacks. There are also washrooms on-site.
Morne Coubaril Estate
A 15-minute walk uphill from Stonefield is the beautiful Morne Colbier Estate. A short tour for $7 US shows visitors how cocoa, sugar cane and coconut are processed, using traditional methods. Tasty samples of each stage of production are provided along the way. We were treated to roasted cocoa beans and fresh coconut milk, to mention a few. There is an excellent gift shop on the estate, which has local coconut candy, a must for anyone going to the Soufriere area, as it is difficult to find anywhere else on the island. Cocoa tea, another local delight, is also sold there, with instructions on how to make it.
Drive-in volcano
The visit to the St. Lucia drive-in volcano was unique. The collapsed crater of the dormant volcano that last erupted in 1780 is accessible by car. Visitors take a 30-minute tour, observing the unusual landscape -- a conglomerate of sulphur, magnesium, copper oxide, sapphire and other minerals.
Steam flows upward from the numerous boiling pots of water and mud, and the overpowering stench of sulphur resembled that of a truckload of rotten eggs.
The name of the nearby town, Soufriere, is said to come from the French, meaning "sulphur in the air."
Sulphur springs flowing from the volcano reach temperatures of 80 C.
You can bathe in their healing warm waters, but the best time is in early morning.
Anse Chastanet Beach
Anse Chastanet Beach is amazing, with its black volcanic sand. The resort, like Jalousie, offers beach chairs for a fee of $15 US.
The area boasts some of the best snorkelling around the island. Scuba St. Lucia offers two daily snorkel and dive tours.
Our morning trip took us to Superman's Flight, at the base of the Petit Piton. The strong current allowed for an easygoing snorkel, and the clear waters offered a delight of vivid marine life alongside the coral reef wall. We saw snappers, groupers, parrot and trumpet fish, a solitary barracuda and other schools of fish.
Lunch at Anse Chastanet's Trou Au Diable waterfront restaurant is a must. A delicious pumpkin soup tingled our taste buds, while the chef prepared the catch of the day: dorado.
Seared to perfection, the fresh fish, served with spicy Creole sauces, satisfied our appetites. The restaurant's vegetarian menu is also impressive. The view is great, the atmosphere relaxing and the food amazing. Worth the trip on its own.
In the afternoon we slipped into the waters again to snorkel at the Devil's Hole. Once again we enjoyed coral heads and schools of fish, similar to yet less abundant than Superman's Flight.
Tips for the frugal traveller:
-Do not buy East Caribbean dollars (ECD), the currency in St. Lucia and other Caribbean islands, before departing for your holiday. Not only do you have to buy American currency first, but you also receive only two ECD for every U.S. dollar. However, in St. Lucia, the ECD is pegged at a whopping 2.7 for each dollar. So, by waiting I saved $250 Cdn for every 1,000 U.S. dollars converted. Not a bad sum for doing nothing.
-Bring your own snorkel gear instead of renting. Some dive shops include free snorkel rentals with their trips; however, some places charge up to $20 US per trip or per hour. If you're planning to do a lot of snorkelling at different sites, buying your own gear will save you money and peace of mind, knowing that the only mouth blowing through the snorkel and snorting into the mask is your own. A good snorkel set (mask, snorkel, fins, strap and carrying bag) costs about $250. If you use the money saved by not converting your money prior to your departure, then the snorkel gear is free.
-Watch out for seat sales. I set up WestJet's main website as the home page on my computer and every time I started my web browser the page reminded me to check and compare tariffs. West-Jet's lowest Internet price I found for a one-way ticket to St. Lucia in early December was $204.99 Cdn, before taxes; the highest price was $799.99, before taxes. Prices for the return trip fell approximately in the same range. A couple of minutes every morning and afternoon may save you up to $1,000.
-Avoid visiting towns or tourist sites on a Sunday or a cruise ship day. The entire country pretty much shuts down on Sundays, as St. Lucians spend the day going to church and enjoying time with their families. On the day a cruise ship arrives on the island, everything is extremely crowded with loud, rambunctious travellers.
-Bring your own sunscreen, because prices in St. Lucia are up to three times higher than in Canada, and products may not be available in some areas. As well, varieties including high sun protection factor (SPF) may be limited.
-Avoid booking tours from resorts as they charge up to five times more, are usually crowded and are not always available. Instead, decide beforehand what site you want to see or ask your cab driver for suggestions. Then, get them to take you around. Agree on a fair price beforehand and enjoy touring at your own pace, receiving personal attention and care and being able to stop when you want to. Michael's Taxi Service had great, reliable drivers, like our cab driver/ guide Raphael, who can take you anywhere in St. Lucia at much less than any tour we researched.
WestJet and Air Canada offer flights to St. Lucia via Toronto.

We reported a while back that Nokia were helping to bring PayPal to Windows Phone. Well for all those out there that have been waiting with bated breath, it's finally with us.
We are still trying to confirm the availability in all regions but can confirm 100% that UK and USA are able to see and install the app--you don't need a Nokia phone either. Having installed the app its looking very nice indeed, sporting a smooth scrolling panoramic layout. For a version 1.0 release this is looking very good indeed.
The app is free and signed off in the marketplace as coming from eBay Inc. So we're certain of its authenticity, just a little surprised at the lack of hoopla for this important release.
The features included are :
- Whether you want to send a money gift or pay off a loan from a friend—sending money is easy and FREE(when using Bank or Balance as a funding source)
- Check your balance, withdraw funds or view past transactions—anytime, anywhere
- New "Local" feature where you can find local merchants who are using our PayPal Here™ service and pay them with PayPal.
- Online or on-the-go, your financial information is always safe and secure with PayPal.
Another important piece to the puzzle fits into place with this app. For many users it's apps like these that are simply not replaceable. This is a clear case of Nokia helping to strengthen the eco system with this sort of developer initiative.
This is quite early on so some may not see the app through searching, if the app is unavailable in your region let us know in the comments.
Thanks to Mark Tepper for the tip! :)

The Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3) is widely deployed today, ranging from 10BaseT (10 Mb/s), 100BaseTX (100 Mb/s), and 1000BaseT (250 Mb/s, 4 lanes) in twisted pair to 10 Gigabit Ethernet in fibre.
Designs implementing 10/100/1000M Ethernet must characterize each of the three electrical standards for full compliance. For 10 Gigabit Ethernet, designers must characterize the four XAUI electrical streams operating at 3.125 Gb/s, the combined 10 Gb/s electrical signal, and finally the 10 Gb/s optical signal.
Specifications and compliance tests are defined by the IEEE. The resources you find here will provide you with an overview of Ethernet design, understand the latest measurement techniques, and illustrate design and debug approaches.
