The cruelty of women! For Severin—the endlessly needy anti-hero of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch's short, intense erotic novel, "Venus in Furs," published in 1870—there is no love without denial. We first learn about this Galician nobleman's passionate, almost clinical desires after a conversation that he has one day with a male friend. (The book is largely composed around a series of conversations.) Severin's friend describes a dream, in which he spoke to a statue-like woman who was draped in furs. The image triggers something in Severin's erotic memory. From the beginning of the novel, it's obvious that Sacher-Masoch's alter ego is saturnine, prone to self-absorption and melancholy. ("A strange feeling comes over me as I write these words," Severin notes near the start of his recollections. "The wounds that were healed long ago have opened up again and throb with pain; now and then a tear falls onto the page.") What Sacher-Masoch also makes clear is that Severin's life has no apparent shape or meaning unless he is able to express his desire for a commanding, withholding woman. The charge that Severin feels when he kneels at a woman's feet, for instance, sensing her anger and the bristling of the furs she wears, gives him his identity, a presence to be trampled on. (The pioneering psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing based the term "masochism" on Sacher-Masoch's name and sexual inclinations.)
But it takes Severin a moment to get there. His account begins with a stay at a health resort in the Carpathian Mountains. (We never fully discover why Severin is there, which contributes to the book's sometimes surreal logic.) At the spa, Severin has plenty of time on his hands. He's an aesthete, but whenever he thinks to paint or to write music he says, "All I manage to do is stretch the canvas, smooth the bow, and line the music paper." He's listless, a dreamer. "The truth is that I am an amateur in life," he says. He is also an amateur in love. Severin has had relatively little experience with women, or, at least, with the kind of woman to whom he could attach his deepest longings. But that all changes when he falls for a statue on the resort's unkempt grounds. "This Venus is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen," he says. "I love her madly, passionately, with feverish intensity, as one can only love a woman who responds to one with a petrified smile, ever calm and unchanging. I adore her absolutely. . . . Often at night I pay a visit to my cold, cruel beloved; clasping her knees, I press my face against her cold pedestal and I worship her." What does Severin worship? The kind of woman who today would wear high heels to emphasize her complex but redoubtable moral stature; who would put on lipstick (red, red lipstick) to color the wounds she inflicts; who would outwit her man with her cunning and her control; and who would recognize a man's need for love—and then withhold it.
Although neither Severin nor his creator appears in David Ives's wildly intelligent and sometimes frightening new play, "Venus in Fur" (at the Classic Stage Company), it helps to have some knowledge of the novel and its author before immersing yourself in the ninety-five-minute intermissionless show; the primary relationship that Sacher-Masoch describes in his novel—which he acted out in life with a mistress and with a woman he eventually married—is at the heart of Walter Bobbie's exquisite production. This sexual roundelay about power and powerlessness, about the imagination butting up against so-called "reality," is played out by two contemporary characters. As it begins, we sit facing Thomas (Wes Bentley), a playwright who has written an adaptation of "Venus in Furs." He's in a rehearsal studio—a grayish, minimal, anonymous space with fluorescent track lighting. He is talking on the phone to his fiancée, at the end of a long day of auditions for his play; he wants to get home. We can hear thunder and rain outside. But no sooner has Thomas put down the phone than Vanda (the phenomenal Nina Arianda) enters, dressed in a trenchcoat and carrying a broken umbrella. Vanda is like the weather: a force of nature that drenches whoever gets caught up in its sway. She wants to know if she can audition for Thomas. He tries to brush her off, but the brassy Vanda sets about to convince him that she's the only woman who can play the part. Sometimes she throws him a compliment; sometimes she tries to appear helpless, which she is not at all. She's simply testing Thomas's "maleness"—that is, his desire to be counted on, to be admired, to be "Daddy." Would he like her to wear a white dress for the audition? she asks. (Thomas is too shocked or timid to mention the bondage-like gear that Vanda has on under her coat when she arrives.) Donning the white dress, she asks is it "real 1870"? She wants to know what kind of accent she should use to play Wanda, the dominating woman whom Severin eventually meets at the spa. When Thomas still doesn't know how to respond, Vanda just does her thing. And, as soon as she starts to read, she's no longer Vanda but Wanda, a measured woman with impeccable Continental diction. The transformation is subtle and not so subtle—acting is Vanda's bag, and it becomes ours, too, as we watch Thomas become more and more powerless in the presence of her unconquerable vitality, her seductive energy.

ROUND ROCK – Some of the Baseball Diamonds and Soccer Fields at the Old Settlers Park in Round Rock are giving rise to a spectacular Christmas Lights show.
The "Rock'N Lights Tour" is a first for the city of Round Rock, offering drivers a view of two million lights from the comfort of their vehicles.
"Everybody loves to look at Christmas lights at home so we thought what a great idea it would be to do an actual lights show through one of our premiere parks," said Roger Heaney, a spokesperson with the city of Round Rock.
Heaney told KVUE that the entire light show took nine months to prepare and cost about $375,000.
The cost to go on the 1.5 mile path lined with Christmas lights, some of them animated, is $15 per vehicle.
"The whole thing leads into our Rock'N Lights Village which features Santa photos, a full array of rides, all sorts of great holiday food to eat. Just creating a big, carnival, family-atmosphere," Heaney said.
The "Rock'N Lights Tour" begins at 6 p.m. every night including Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. The spectacle's last day is December 31st.

That explosion occurred 12 billion years ago, making it a billion years older than the oldest supernova ever seen before. Because they are so bright—about 10 to 100 times brighter than most supernovae—these superluminous supernovae extend the limit on how far scientists can look back in time when they study the stars, whose light takes so long to reach us that what they are showing us is a picture of the universe in the past. With these results, published in Nature, scientists are peering closer than ever before to the time of the Big Bang, 13.7 billion years ago.
Scientists Detect 12-Billion-Year-Old Supernova, the Oldest Yet Observed
Scientists using a telescope atop a Hawaiian volcano have detected a pair of extra-bright supernovae, or star explosions, one of which is the oldest, most-distant supernova ever detected.

Meet Our Student Leaders!
Campus Activities prides itself on helping students become the best versions of themselves through programs and events. Meet some of our current student leaders and learn about how their involvement in our organization has helped them to develop!
Jillian – Moore, OK – History Education
Homecoming Activities Board (HAB) Chair
HAB is the organization that plans, organizes, and facilitates Homecoming on UCO's campus. We begin planning Homecoming in March, and work through the summer and beginning of the fall semester to insure that UCO has the best homecoming experience possible! We coordinate with Alumni, Athletics, Student Affairs, and many other organizations to make Homecoming Week a campus-wide collaborative effort that will have the greatest impact on the greatest number of people, leaving all participants with memories that will long outlast their years at UCO. My favorite part of being on HAB is seeing our campus come together to celebrate Central! It's a beautiful sight to see! I love knowing that I helped facilitate and plan those experiences that students, faculty, staff, and alumni talk about for years to follow!
After being HAB Chair, I will take away the ability to lead a board through our campus's largest event! I will leave HAB with the capability to be the leader of a major organization and I will know how to delegate efficiently and effectively! I am thankful for opportunity that the Campus Activities office has provided me, I am now a better leader than I ever thought I could be!
Melissa – Del City, OK – Marriage and Family Therapy
WinterGlow Volunteer Committee
WinterGlow is an event that is open to both UCO and Edmond Community members. For one magical night, we transform the Nigh University Center into a Winter Wonderland. Children get to participate in games, crafts, take their picture with Santa, and much more. My favorite part of this event is getting to see the joy from the children as they play the holiday themed games or the excitement they have from getting a picture with Santa. I love giving back to the community and what a better group than kids!
WinterGlow is one of those things that you work hard for but when the event is over you are very glad that you participated. I think that anyone that participates in WinterGlow will not leave with disappointment because the kids have a wonderful time and you know that you were a part of making their holiday celebrations special.
Jaimie – Yukon, OK – Forensic Science/Psychology
Pom Captain
Pom supports UCO in athletics, students, and community events. We cheer on our Bronchos at every game while behind the scenes we are working hard to prepare for the National Cheer Association Championships. Nationals takes place during April in Daytona Beach, Florida. This past summer, we attended Cheer Camp with other schools from throughout the country and won first in Team Routine, Game Day Dance, as well as taking the title of Most Collegiate and Best All Around. We also received a Gold Paid Bid, which is the highest award you can receive and pays for our Nationals registration fees. My favorite thing about being a part of the Pom Squad is seeing how far we have come and all of our accomplishments. As a student athlete, it is hard to balance school, work, and an organization. But when our hard work pays off it makes it all worthwhile.
After college I will use the skills I learned from being a leader and a part of a team. It takes commitment and passion to be a part of this Squad and I will always remember to never give up and to give 100% no matter what I am doing.
Zach – Oklahoma City, OK – Political Science, Minors in Leadership and Business Administration
Big Pink Volleyball Greek Recruitment Chair
Big Pink Volleyball is a philanthropic event that organizes a charity volleyball tournament played with a, you guessed it, a big pink volleyball. The organization hopes to raise awareness and money for Susan G. Komen for the Cure in order to fight breast cancer. My favorite part of being involved with Big Pink was having the opportunity to visit every Greek house at UCO and spread Big Pink Volleyball's message. Breast cancer affects one out of every eight women. At UCO, that translates to 1,172 people potentially being diagnosed with breast cancer. Through Big Pink, I was able to help spread awareness and helped to rally the Central community around a very worthy cause.
This organization has allowed me to make friendships that I would not have otherwise made. Also, the public speaking experience and knowledge of breast cancer was invaluable.
Chelsea – Owasso, OK – Early Childhood Education
Cheerleading Captain
The cheerleaders cheer at football and basketball home games. We also make appearances at special events around campus and the community. We encourage students, fans, and alumni to attend events at UCO and become part of the activities. My favorite part of being a cheerleader for UCO is attending the sporting events and helping the Bronchos win a victory. Leading the crowd in cheers and performing the fight song after winning a game is an incredible feeling.
Being a leader at UCO has helped me learn how to be a leader for the rest of my life. I plan on becoming a teacher which requires being a leader to my students and the entire school. It has also showed me how to work well with others.
Kristian – Midwest City, OK – Nursing
Old Blue Crew Senator
Old Blue Crew is a group of men that come together to support Central Athletics. Throughout the year, we run the giant UCO Flags at football games, cheer on our Broncho basketball teams, and are always on hand to get the crowd pumped up to support Central. It's a great opportunity to meet a lot of people and hang around a group of guys that are just as fun, exciting, and pumped as you are to support our Broncho athletes. My favorite thing about this organization is traveling to different places to support our athletes in competitions throughout the country.
Being a leader has taught me many things that I will use for the rest of my life. It has also challenged me to go beyond the expectations and make better changes for a better future.
Paul – Waurika, OK – Chemistry/Health Sciences
President's Club General Member
The President's Club is responsible for putting on the President's Club Children's Christmas Party each December and the Campus Leadership Awards in April. During the President's Club Children's Christmas Party, local children get paired with student mentors from UCO and spend the afternoon playing games and receive a gift bought especially for them by their assigned mentors. In April, President's Club comes together to recognize all of UCO's outstanding leaders in a ceremony that recognizes organizations, individuals, commitment to community service, commitment to diversity, and more.
My favorite part of being a part of President's Club, especially during the Christmas Party, is being able to see the look on the children's face when they open up their presents. It is an awesome feeling to make a positive impact in a child's life even just for one afternoon. I believe I will take away a better understanding of the importance of making time for children and making myself available as a role model for those younger than me.
Lindsey – Lawton, OK – Speech Language Pathology
Miss UCO
The Miss UCO Pageant is a preliminary competition to the Miss Oklahoma and Miss America pageant. The Pageant consists of competitions in interview, talent, and modeling an evening gown and swimsuit. The woman selected to be Miss UCO is involved in many campus activities as well as community service activities. Each contestant competing chooses a platform issue relating to issues they want to be an ambassador for in their community. My platform is called Basket of Hope and it is a national nonprofit organization that delivers baskets of toys to children in our local hospitals with cancer or other serious illnesses. I have the honor of being the director for the Oklahoma branch of this great organization.
Through being Miss UCO and being involved in pageants, I have been blessed to have learned so much! I have gained the confidence to help me do well in my future career as well as have confidence to speak publicly. I would encourage anyone to get involved in pageants, and Miss UCO is a great place to start!
Sara – Tulsa, OK – Public Relations
New Broncho Orientation Executive Director
New Student Orientation is for any New Bronchos and New Broncho Parents & Family to learn about UCO through a fun and interactive day. The New Student Orientation team plans New Broncho Orientation, Parent and Family Orientation and the events that go on during Stampede Week. I love being a part of New Student Orientation because it is one of the first thing you do as being a new Broncho. I believe that college is where you learn about who you are and what you want to do for the rest of your life. It is so exciting to be the start of their UCO journey and see where they will go as Bronchos.
As a student leader I will take away the knowledge to lead a group of students and overcome good times and adversity. After UCO, I hope to achieve my masters in Student Affairs and being a part of New Student Orientation has taught me to be flexible and realize that you can make a difference in a student's life.
Ryan – Owasso, OK – Broadcasting
Student Programming Board Concerts Committee, General Member
SPB is the premier student programming group on campus that brings 50+ events to campus each year, including concerts, the Stampede Week Foam Party, a murder mystery dinner, comedy shows, and much more. We consist of an executive board and four committees, which include concerts, special events, recreation, and daytime events. I would have to say my favorite part of this organization is the overall interaction that I get to have with students on campus. I can see that the work I've done brings happiness to them and they are able to have a good time.
I think I will really take away the concept of working with others for the greater good of students on and off campus. What we do really helps to define students' experiences here at UCO and we often times get to help create some of their fondest memories through the programs that we plan and implement on a weekly basis.

Action Clears the Way For Construction to Begin on State Center Redevelopment in Baltimore City
ANNAPOLIS, MD (July 28, 2010) – Governor Martin O'Malley announced today that by a unanimous, 3-0 vote the Board of Public Works approved long-term leases at two new office buildings to be built as part of the redevelopment of State Center in Baltimore City. The state commitment to lease office in the redevelopment provides the private sector development team with the ability to seek the private financing necessary to build the first phase of the project.
"The Board of Public works took a big step today in shaping Maryland's future and bringing thousands of jobs to the heart of Baltimore City," said Governor O'Malley. "The State Center project will revitalize an area in the heart of the City by mixing retail, residential and office space close to our transit stations and it will be done in a way that will connect, not divide, nine nearby communities. This kind of smart development will be a model for what we can do near other major transit stations throughout the state."
The $215 million Phase One development at State Center will include two new office buildings and a parking garage. It will form a green, walkable community adjacent to Metro, Light Rail and MARC transit stations. Phase One will include 500,000 square feet of office space and 70,000 square feet of street-level retail space, including a grocery store that the has been a priority for the surrounding communities for years. Over the next 20 years this first phase of the State Center redevelopment will generate more than $200 million in state and city taxes and another $30 million in lease payments to the State of Maryland.
The entire State Center redevelopment, a five-phase, 15-year plan, will create 9,403 jobs during construction and 5,439 permanent, private-sector jobs when the project is complete. An additional 4,862 indirect and induced jobs will be added upon the project's completion.


text: Share Animal Crackers February 19 - November 4, 2012 Directed by Allison Narver | Book by George S. Kaufman & Morrie RyskindMusic and lyrics by Bert Kalmar & Harry Ruby | Reconceived from an adaptation by Henry Wishcamper Overview Artists Video Reviews Run Time: Two hours and 27 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission. Hello, I must be going! Hurrah for Captain Spaulding, the African explorer, skirt chaser and wise-cracking guest of honor at a posh Long Island house party. High jinks meet high society when he and his cronies mix it up with social climbers and stolen paintings. Written for the Marx Brothers, this slapstick madcap musical busts out with zany songs and lavish dance numbers. Released as a film after the 1929 Wall Street crash and recently adapted, it proves that you can't keep an anarchic comedy full of pungent one-liners down.Audience notes: Strobe lights, e-cigarettes and e-cigars are used in this production. There is the sound of gun shots. more information + Society matron Mrs. Rittenhouse has opened her Long Island estate to honor Captain Spaulding, the African ex-plorer, and to exhibit the famous Beaugard painting, "After the Hunt." Not to be outdone, Mrs. Rittenhouse's social rivals, Mrs. Whitehead and her sister Grace, set out to humiliate her. They convince Hives, the butler, to steal the painting and replace it with Grace's obviously inferior imitation. At the same time, reporter Mary Stewart urges down-on-his-luck painter John Parker to exhibit his copy of the Beaugard in order to prove his artistic talent. Mary enlists Emanuel Ravelli and the Professor, two dubious musi-cians, to steal the painting and replace it with John's obviously excellent copy. Complications ensue as gossip columnist Wally Winston discovers that financier Roscoe W. Chandler is actually Abie Kabibble, a fish peddler from "Czecho-Slovakia." A scoop this big will surely get him a raise so he can marry Mrs. Rittenhouse's daughter, Arabella. Or will it? The estate gets turned upside down when all three paintings go missing. Schemes get made and foiled, and no one's quite sure who stole what from whom when. Absurdities abound as everyone inhales sleeping gas, Spaulding dreams of Madame DuBarry and "four of the three musketeers" sing "My Old Kentucky Home"—in French.

The Story Director Allison Narver talks about the play. Artist Profile: Bruce Jennings In this OSF Artist Profile, Bruce Jennings, Oregon Shakespeare Festival's Construction Supervisor, gives an insider's look at the set and build of Animal Crackers, and a brief run through of his job. Know Before You Go: Animal Crackers Dr. Lue Morgan Douthit gives insight into Animal Crackers. Oregon Live "As it turns out, sincere flattery seldom is as hilarious as Bedard's inspired impersonation, which nails Groucho's slippery sense of timing and finds a credible (if differently pitched) approximation of his simultaneously caustic and winking vocal tone. Bedard's Captain is leader of a legion of comic delights deployed here by director Allison Narver -- highlighted by a dash of uproarious puppetry and another marvelous performance by the versatile Jonathan Haugen, quick-changing his way between the roles of a butler and a financier." -OregonLive Napa Valley Register "…for recession relief and pure escapist fun, there's "Animal Crackers," Henry Wishcamper's adaptation of the classic Marx Brother's work…In this polished, stylish, lavish production, the actors recreate the antics, the voices and mannerisms of the crazy Marx Brothers so well, the effect is to catapult the audience back in time. Skewering the rich — not an untimely sport in 2012 — it's hilarious, nutty, and sheer fun." -Napa Valley Register Tri-City Weekly/Eureka Times-Standard "It doesn't really matter if audience members are longtime fans (or just being introduced) to the zany antics of the incomparably crazy-like-a-fox, classic comedy team of the Marx Brothers, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's current, side-splitting production of 'Animal Crackers' (a Broadway hit in 1928 and a smash movie in 1930) is guaranteed to crack them up! From the hilarious opening scenes to the crazy closing curtain, the actors totally inhabit every Looney Tune moment with the true essence of sharply-drawn, over-the-top insanity that their iconic roles require."

Zolpidem online without prescription
Zolpidem pills for sale
A good night worth of sleep is something that many people tend to take for granted. Unfortunately many people spend their nights tossing and turning trying to sleep instead of actually sleeping. One of the biggest reasons that people have a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep through the night is because of sleep disorders. Sleep disorders such as insomnia often leave people tired and feeling as if they are out of options. But luckily for those who are really suffering from lack of sleep there is Zolpidem.
Zolpidem is a prescription medication that is used to help treat sleeping disorders. There are several forms of this medication that are used on a day to day basis by millions of people. Immediate release forms of the prescription include ambien, edluar, zolpimist, and intermezzo.
There are also slow release forms which which dissolve slower to help you remain asleep.
If you believe you are a good candidate for Zolpidem you should talk to your doctor about your sleeping habits and be sure to warn your doctor if you have any form of kidney disease, liver disease, lung disease, sleep apnea or a history of mental illness.
Once prescribed it is important that you take several precautions in order to remain safe and healthy under the influence of the medication. You should only take this sleeping pill right as you are going to bed. You should not drive or operate any form of machinery after consuming this medication. Also, taking it with alcohol can have very dangerous side effects. Some people have reported driving, talking or eating in their sleep and having no recollection of it what so ever; if this happens to you, report it to your doctor immediately. Another thing to keep in mind is that it is highly addictive so you should not share this medication with anyone, even if they are experiencing the same symptoms as you.
Upon waking up after taking Zolpdiem you should NOT perform any tasks that require you to be fully alert and functional until you are fully awake or at least four hours until it has fully worn off.
Just like any other medication, there are side effects. Some of the common side effects include: nausea or upset stomach, daytime drowsiness, headaches, and stuffy nose, dry mouth or throat irritation.
No one should have to live their life dealing with a sleeping disorder. If you believe that Zolpidem is right for you than you should consult with your doctor to further discuss your options to figure out what is appropriate for your condition.

The abdication of the old Presidente of St. Helena provided the perfect opportunity for your rise to power. Now as the head of state it is your job to lead this small island nation to a new age of prosperity.
St. Helena is a modest island with rich and fertile lands, which have attracted the attention of the American food conglomerate Fruitas LTD. You should make use of the gringos to secure the financial future of the island as well as your own Swiss Bank Account.
MISSION 2: Second Chance
The band of rebels led by your twin managed to drive you out of your own island. Taking the entire treasury, you hitched a ride on an old fishing boat, seeking refuge in your summer residence on the island of El Acantilado.
Chased away from their own homes, your most loyal supporters have followed you. Taking the burden of leadership once again you have promised them a fresh start. Your new island is a poor and dry hunk of rock. Several rich iron ore deposits are its only viable resources...

Decades passed before I would write again. But, if invited to a banquet (and who doesn't attend those all the time?), I could select the proper knife and fork for each course and display animated interest in even the most banal conversation. These qualifications carried me around the world. I worked in fields as diverse as advertising in London and New York, fashion modeling in Paris, and partnering in a frog farm in Costa Rica. I often lost myself for hours at the opera or theater or a concert. Afterward, I would long to live again as I did as a young child—to harness the huge creative force inside me and write. I laid claim to that life with my first novel, Dream Chaser.

There was a special welcome home Sunday for a U.S. Army captain who just returned from Afghanistan.
Friends, family and strangers all came out to Yardley, Bucks County, to welcome back Capt. Spencer Garrison.
The 2009 graduate of West Point says he plans to continue active-duty service even after his five-year enlistment period is up in May.
But for now, he says he's just happy to be home.
"It's just really a great relief and a joy to just be back home, especially with my family," Garrison said. "I've been waiting to see my family and friends and neighbors for a long time, and this was completely unexpected. So, this is just a fantastic honor. I'm speechless."
Garrison serves as a public affairs officer for the 555th Engineer Brigade out of Fort Lewis, Washington.
Welcome home, Captain!

its better if u make sketch first. Have you visited GB yet , i recomend you visit GROUPBOARD once. You still need to work mor on anatomy, poses etc. I strongly recommend you to do some fanarts too.
Hey guys, I feel I've come a long way from disproportionate attempts at Kakashi drawings, but since I still have much to learn, imma start a critique thread. I know this one's terrible, and it's my first attempt at art with a tablet, but... at least I actually put my tablet to use for once!
Here it is.
its better if u make sketch first. Have you visited GB yet , i recomend you visit GROUPBOARD once. You still need to work mor on anatomy, poses etc. I strongly recommend you to do some fanarts too.
Yay tablet!
Like tri said I think it would help you to map out a sketch and some more detailed guidelines while drawing. They help map out proportions and muscle placement before you lay down parts of the final drawing. Don't be afraid to get sketchy because you can just erase them later when you figure out exactly what it is you want.
This will also help with when you draw the clothing on later. Right now it kinda looks like his clothes are sticking to him and defying physics in places. Clothing should drape the body and flow with it. Dig up some ref photos and study how clothes look on a body, where they crease and fold and how they change shape when the body moves.
Ok, and what exactly is a fanart? Also, I did do a sketch, sorta. Not a ball and cylinder one, which I should, but...
Fanart is when you draw characters from a book/cartoon/anime/game/tvshow/movie that you're a fan of. It does help out a little since you'll be looking up reference pictures of them (nine times out of ten) and getting an outside taste of character design. It's up to you though. Some people hate the stuff.
I've done some of naruto, shikamaru, gon, and kakashi.
Well that, but when you do a loads of it its like practicing. If you draw some characters from a pic you'll get to know the poses, shapes and tricks on how to make something look good. So its like hiring a model for practicing figure drawing, but without the hiring/paying part.
I have a new drawing, (black and white), but the power's out, so you can critique this one instead. I also have a colored one but I can't figure out how to shade it. How do you usually shade?
There's two ways I go about shading. I either start out with a value sketch where I get my basic shapes laid out on a grey bg then flesh in my darks first and lights after. With this method you work from big blocks of value to small details. After that's done I will lay my colors down on an overlay layer and then do a little actual painting to refine things.
OR, I start with my lineart and flat colors. Then I start laying down my darks with darker complimentary COLORS. NEVER black/grey or white ever ever ever ever! Got that? Black and white shading on colors = bad D:< After I'm satisfied with my darks I throw in my lights and add a small handful of highlights very last.
With this picture if you're planning to stay black and white I would use the value sketch method.

Health care act's death star?
WASHINGTON — A willow, not an oak. So said conservatives of Chief Justice John Roberts when he rescued the Affordable Care Act — aka Obamacare — from being found unconstitutional. But the manner in which he did this may have made the ACA unworkable, thereby putting it on a path to extinction.
This plausible judgment comes from Professor Thomas A. Lambert of the University of Missouri Law School, writing in Regulation quarterly, a publication of the libertarian Cato Institute. The crucial decision, he says, was four liberal justices joining Roberts' opinion declaring the ACA's penalty for not complying with the mandate to purchase health insurance is actually a tax on not purchasing it. With this reasoning, the court severely limited the ability of the new health-care regime to cope with its own predictable consequences.

New Braunfels Police officers have issued the first citations to violators of the city's ban on disposable containers on the river, handing out four citations this past weekend.
The container ban, which went into effect January 1, bans the use of disposable containers (such as beer cans and water bottles) on rivers that run through city limits.
Randy Hamilton, who floats the river about three times a week during the season, said he has seen an increase in heavy drinking in spite of the ban.
"I have seen unbelievably drunk people before the halfway point of the trip," said Hamilton. "They're drinking much harder alcohol, and they're drinking it just as quickly as they were drinking the beer in the first place."
Hamilton said he expects more trouble during the busy summer months, due to the increase in consumption of hard alcohol.
Violation of the city's container ban is a Class C misdemeanor, with a maximum fine of $500.

Pros – (1) Culture - very open, lots of respect for people, not hierarchical
(2) People - highly driven, intelligent and very friendly
(3) Opportunities - high growth, still at the beginning of the advertising shift online
(4) Nature of the work - fast paced, highly innovative
Cons – (1) Worklife/balance - very hard working environment. Can be a con for some. Overall the company tries to manage this as best as possible, but the reality of being in a fast-growing highly innovative company is more work than in a slower paced environment
(2) Getting large/bureaucratic - for a fast moving company, it has grown up since the mid-2000s and so is more bureaucratic than say a startup but MUCH LESS than other corporates
Advice to Senior Management – (1) Keep thinking big but acting small - entrepreneurial/innovative in a much bigger field / company
(2) Continue to hire the best - this drives all the pros of working at Google
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Hey folks,
I recently got the iPhone 3GS to upgrade my mom from an iPhone 2G since it broke and have been having extreme difficulty unlocking this thing
The iPhone is on 5.15.04 and I used the new method posted on the iPhone Dev Team blog to jailbreak and unlock via Cydia. After hours and hours of research and failed attempts I finally got it jailbroken. I went to Cydia and installed Ultrasn0w, like the steps said. The phone rebooted and I put in the t-mobile SIM card into the slot but I don't get any service! I only see one small bar with no T-Mobile sign or reception.
PLEASE HELP! My mom needs the phone for work and shes been missing important e-mails and phone calls the past couple days. This iPhone is driving me crazy
All help is GREATLY appreciated. Thank you very much!

Cincinnati Bengals 2014 News and Updates
4/17/14 - The Cincinnati Bengals' four exhibition matches are set, with their preseason opener to be on the road against the Chiefs in Kansas City. They'll be back in Paul Brown Stadium to take on the New York Jets in Week 2, followed by their only televised game of preseason: a Sunday night showdown against (former Bengal) Carson Palmer and the Arizona Cardinals in Week 3 (Aug 24). The Bengals will conclude their preseason at home against Indianapolis for the 11th consecutive regional-rivalry finale; Cincinnati Bengals tickets are available for the Week 4 game, at $21 to start in the Lower Level.
2/12/14 – Phillip Rivers and the San Diego Chargers outscored Andy Dalton and the Bengals 27-10 in the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs. The AFC North Champions were unbeaten at home during the regular season but could not score in the second half which kept them from advancing further. Since, Cincinnati promoted linebackers coach Paul Guenther to defensive coordinator, hired Matt Burke as linebackers coach, and named Hue Jackson the new offensive coordinator. Can the Bengals go undefeated at home again this season and earn a franchise-record fourth consecutive playoff berth? Cincinnati has one of the easiest schedules in 2014 and in addition to divisional matchups, will host the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans from the AFC South, and the Atlanta Falcons and Carolina Panthers from the NFC South. Plus, a home game against AFC Champions Denver Broncos.

2013 Season
12/30/13 - If we learned anything on Sunday, it's that the Cincinnati Bengals are unstoppable at home. They dominated the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, 34-17, taking down the Super Bowl defenders once and for all and solidifying Cincy's AFC North division title. In the last two years, Cincinnati has lost in the Wild Card Round (both at Houston), but this time things are different: Cincy has the upper hand with home field advantage, and at this point, everyone knows they may be the fiercest home competitors in the league, with a perfect 8-0 at-home record. The Bengals will take on the San Diego Chargers this Wild Card weekend, Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium, for Cincinnati's chance to win their first playoff game since 1990. Cincinnati Bengals tickets are cheap! Starting at $62 and averaging at a mere $180, Bengals playoff tickets are considerably less than regular season prices we've seen this year.
12/23/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals clinched their third consecutive playoff appearance after routing the Minnesota Vikings 42-14, on Sunday at home. Andy Dalton had a banner day and threw for over 300 yards, thanks to his unstoppable counterpart AJ Green, who made 7 catches for 2 TDs. The Bengals are unyielding on both sides of the ball when playing at home, and can eliminate playoff hopefuls, the Baltimore Ravens, when they visit Ohio this Sunday. Cincinnati Bengals tickets offer the best deal of the week, at just $86 on average to catch one of the most dangerous teams in the league take on the defending Super Bowl champions in their last-ditch effort for a postseason run.
12/16/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals missed the opportunity to take the No.2 AFC seed and a first round bye, after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-30. Two early blunders by special teams, one that left punter Kevin Huber with a broken jaw, got the Bengals off to a bad start and forced them to play catch-up on the road. The Baltimore Ravens (who the Bengals play in 2 weeks) now have a chance to steal the AFC North if they win their last three games—a slim chance, as Cincinnati is set to play their final two games at home where they typically thrash opponents. Cincinnati Bengals tickets are just $68 on average to see them bounce back and take on the Minnesota Vikings this Sunday.
12/9/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals crushed the Indianapolis Colts yesterday, 42-28, to take a convincing lead in the AFC North. Though the weather was miserable, Andy Dalton had a banner day, throwing three TDs and running for another to keep Cincy undefeated at home. The Bengals are on a roll: heading into Week 15, they are still two games ahead of the Ravens, and if they play anything like yesterday when they meet the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday, they can clinch the division title then and there! Cincinnati Bengals tickets only $18 to get in, be there when the boys try to breach the Steel Curtain at Heinz Field.
12/3/13- The Cincinnati Bengals bested the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, arising 17-10 on the road. Overcoming a less-than-stellar Andy Dalton performance, the Bengals' defense stymied Philip Rivers and the Chargers, holding them to their lowest scoring game of the season. The Bengals have successfully maintained their two game lead in the AFC North, but will now turn their focus to the Indianapolis Colts who are also gunning for a postseason run with a powerful QB at the helm. Cincinnati Bengals tickets for next Sunday's game against the AFC South leaders start at $43 and average at $116.
11/26/13 - Even on their bye, the Cincinnati Bengals have remained on top of the AFC North. Coming into their break, the Bengals halted a two game skid, coming up victorious against division foes, the Cleveland Browns, despite a number of turnovers and roller coaster performance by their leader Andy Dalton. The Bengals are heading into a critical December stretch, beginning with a match against the San Diego Chargers (who just toppled the Kansas City Chiefs) with hopes of extending their division lead. Cincinnati Bengals tickets are moderately priced, at $28 minimum and $96 on average in Southern California.
11/19/13- The Cincinnati Bengals have extended their lead in the AFC North, with their rout of the Cleveland Browns on Sunday (41-20). Andy Dalton had a rough start, throwing two picks to give their in-state rivals an early 13-0 lead, but that changed quickly. Though there were lots of turnovers from both sides on the rainy day, the Bengals made up for their deficit with some huge plays—Cincinnati put up 31 points in the second quarter, marking the highest scoring quarter in franchise history. The Bengals now head into their bye week with a solid hold over the division and a record-breaking game, they will return in Week 13 to play the Chargers in San Diego.
11/12/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals lost their first back-to-back games this season, after falling to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday in overtime (17-20). Despite a poor offensive showing by Joe Flacco and company, Andy Dalton struggled even more, racking up 6 picks in the last two games, and going 24 of 51, 3 interceptions, 2 TDs on the day. Where Dalton goes, so do the Bengals: the quarterback's inconsistency reflected in the team' loss, something Cincinnati will try and remedy before meeting the Cleveland Browns—an important game, if they want to maintain a big lead in the AFC North. Cincinnati Bengals tickets for Week 11 are a moderate $23 to get in and $148 on average.
11/5/13 - For just the third time in NFL history, a game was determined by a safety in overtime, and the Cincinnati Bengals lost to the Miami Dolphins 22-20. Despite a dazzling 35-yard touchdown rush by Giovani Bernard, Miami's Cameron Wake made the game-winning play when he sacked Andy Dalton behind the goal line for the final two points, ending the Bengals four game winning streak. Not only did Cincinnati lose the hard-fought Thursday match, but they also lost their star tackle Geno Atkins for the season from a torn ACL. Still resting on a two game lead in their division, The Bengals will travel to Baltimore to face the Ravens in hopes of shrugging off the crushing loss and getting the defense rolling without Atkins. Cincinnati Bengals tickets are $200 on average.
10/28/13 - The Bengals have solidified their midseason hold over the AFC North, with their latest victory Sunday afternoon, thrashing the New York Jets 49-9 for their fourth straight win. Andy Dalton had a phenomenal game; completing a career high 5 TD passes for 325 yards, finding Marvin Jones in the end zone for four of them, likewise, receiver AJ Green finished with over 100 receiving yards. The blowout would not have been possible without the relentless Bengals defense, who effectively shut down Geno Smith's options and picked him off twice. The Bengals will fight for another statement victory when they face the Miami Dolphins on a short week at Sun Life Stadium. Cincinnati Bengals tickets are one of the more affordable of the week, at $24 to get in and $103 on average.
10/22/13 - Hot off the heels of their Week 7 overtime victory, the Cincinnati Bengals have scored another quality win, this time, over the Detroit Lions. Again, kicker Mike Nugent booted a game-winning 54-yard field goal in the fourth with four seconds left, but the combination of Andy Dalton (135.9 QB rating) and AJ Green (155 receiving yards) has been extraordinary for the last couple weeks, and the two showed their strength over the powerhouse duo of Matt Stafford and Calvin Johnson on Sunday. As seems to be the trend in Week 7, yet another injury sidelined a key player: cornerback Leon Hall tore his Achilles heel (placed on IR), leaving a possible gap in Cincinnati's strong defense. Now the kings of the AFC North, Cincinnati will look for their fourth consecutive win to further prove their Super Bowl candidacy to hesitant critics. After all, there is still untapped explosive potential in their running game with Giovani Bernard and BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who racked up just 51 yards combined against the Lions. When they go head to head against the New York Jets at Paul Brown Stadium, Cincinnati Bengals tickets are a moderately priced $71 on average.
10/15/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals snatched victory from an exuberant Buffalo Bills squad on Sunday. With a final score of 27-24, it took Mike Nuget's 43-yard field goal in overtime to edge out the opposition. Although the defense faltered, allowing a rallying 14 points in the second half from the Bills young QB Thaddeus Lewis, it was an offensive field day. Andy Dalton threw for 337 yards, three touchdowns and just one interception, and receivers A.J. Green and Marvin Jones were fruitful targets for the quarterback. The Bengals are riding high on top of the AFC North as both the Ravens and Browns faltered in Week 6, however they have been riddled with penalties throughout the season, racking up 8 flags on Sunday for a total of 78 yards lost. Cincy will continue on the road into Week 7 when they square off against worthy opponents, the Detroit Lions at Ford Field.
10/8/13 - The Bengals stunned the New England Patriots in Sunday's statement 13-6 win at Paul Brown Stadium in Ohio. The Bengals defense, headed by coordinator Mike Zimmer, slayed Tom Brady, denying his team's winning streak, and making him fall just two games short of Drew Brees' 54-games-with-a-TD all time record, at 52. In epic fashion, with torrential rain pouring into the stadium at the close of the fourth quarter, Brady could not grip the ball on his last attempted drive and failed to make a single touchdown against the blistering Bengals defense who limited the Patriots to putting up just two field goals on the scoreboard. Next up for the Cinncinati Bengals are the Buffalo Bills who they will play next Sunday at Orchard Park in New York. Cincinnati Bengals tickets on the road are $43 to get in and $115 on average.
10/1/13 - The Cincinnati Bengals are the most recent victims of the Cleveland Brown's surge of empowerment, losing 6-17 in Week 4. The Bengals let show their inconsistency, as Andy Dalton did not make use of the Bengals' deep set offensive weaponry, throwing 23-42 for 206 yards, with no touchdowns and a fumble. Also showing inconsistency in their unbalanced running game, BenJarvus Green-Ellis is averaging just 2.7 yards per carry (52 carries for 142 yards) while rookie Giovanni Bernard, on the other hand, is averaging 4.6 yards per carry with 32 carries for 147 yards. For Week 5, Cincinnati is hoping to bounce back and put up a virtuous fight at home against the flaming 4-0 New England Patriots. Although the Bengals have dropped from No.6 to No.11 in ESPN Power Rankings, Cincinnati Bengals tickets are more expensive at home this week, averaging $115 a seat and $52 to get in, than they were last week on the road.
9/24/13 - It was a messy game of turnovers in Cincinnati on Sunday against Green Bay, but the Bengals came out on top in a roller coaster close featuring cornerback Terence Newman returning a fumble 58 yards for the 34-30 win. The game was one of mishap as each team gave the ball away four times, including one returned fumble for a touchdown apiece. But one thing is certain, with four sacks and two interceptions on the Packers' Aaron Rodgers, the Bengals' defense is a force to be reckoned with. They are set to play the Browns at Cleveland, who are also coming off of a noteworthy victory against the Minnesota Vikings. Get into this game for a low $36.
Cincinnati Bengals 2014 Season
2013 Season
Although the Cincinnati Bengals in-state rival,
Cleveland Browns
, haven't made it to the
NFL playoffs
in 9 seasons, it's the Bengals who've gone the longest without a playoff win — 22 years. According to
USA Today
, NFL teams that didn't even exist in 1991 — when Boomer Esiason led Cincinnati to its last postseason win — have 25 playoff victories. The Bengals have made it back to the playoffs, however, each of the last two seasons, losing in the Wild Card game to the
Houston Texans
both times.

Led by one of the top quarterback-wide receiver combinations in the NFL, QB Andy Dalton and WR A.J. Green, the Bengals offense averaged 24.4 points per game last year — 12th in the League and only a half-point below AFC North rival and
Super Bowl
Baltimore Ravens
. In addition to Green, Jermaine Gresham, Andrew Hawkins, Brandon Tate, Armon Binns, Marvin Jones, Mohamed Sanu and Orson Charles all helped Dalton spread the field and move the ball through the air against bruising AFC North defenses. Cincinnati hasn't run the ball well, but BenJarvus Green-Ellis — not known to be a speedy, breakaway back — rushed for more than 100 yards in four out of five games between Weeks 11-15. Giovani Bernard, the Bengals second-round draft pick in April will support The Law Firm in the backfield. Gio piled up more than 2,500 yards on the ground in two years at North Carolina and earned ACC Offensive Player of the Year. Second-year offensive coordinator Jay Gruden adds Tyler Eifert at tight end, the 21st pick in this year's NFL draft. Gruden could use two tight ends much like Bill Belichick has done successfully with the
New England Patriots
While the Cincinnati Bengals offense continues to improve, its defense punishes opponents. Cincinnati's D finished 8th in points per game and 6th in yards. Defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer believes he'll stop any player on any NFL team with a defense led by Geno Atkins, Carlos Dunlap and Michael Johnson up front; Rey Maualuga and Vontaze Burfict in the middle; and Leon Hall deep. James Harrision, an Ohio native and new Bengals addition who played nine seasons in Pittsburgh, adds even more toughness at linebacker. Harrison won two Super Bowls with the Steelers, made 5 Pro Bowls and was named NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
Although the Bengals need to find a way to win a playoff game in 2013, Cincinnati fans will fill
Paul Brown Stadium
with Who Dey chants from the September home opener versus the
Pittsburgh Steelers
to the last home game in December against the Baltimore Ravens. Steelers vs. Bengals tickets on September 16th start at $64, with lower level 50-yard line seats on the Bengals sideline reaching $300-$600. Bengals fans waiting to see the Bengals vs. Ravens on December 29th will save 39% per ticket in the upper level compared to the Pittsburgh game. Of the eight home games, the 2013 Bengals schedule features five teams that made the playoffs last season: Baltimore Ravens,
Green Bay Packers
Indianapolis Colts
Minnesota Vikings
and New England Patriots. Cheap Bengals tickets can be found under $70 for each of the five games.

Taqwacore: The Birth of Punk Islam
Taqwacore: The Birth of Punk Islam
One week only!
Omar Majeed, 2009
Wex at Gateway
Join us at the Gateway Film Center (located in the South Campus Gateway, just three blocks to our south) where we program a different exceptional independent or international title for a run of at least two weeks each month. Wexner Center members pay member pricing for all Wex at Gateway screenings—and save on most other movies at Gateway too.
"Remarkable not just for the unique and sometimes divergent opinions and motivations of the artists, but for locating the cultural spark just as it catches fire."—Eye Weekly
Taqwacore chronicles the nascent Muslim punk rock movement in America. It was inspired by the work of Michael Knight, who converted to Islam in rebellion against his white-supremacist father. He went on to pen the novel "The Taqwacores" (a term combining the Muslim concept of God consciousness with hardcore punk), a manifesto for disillusioned Islamic teens. Soon young Muslim musicians were contacting him and a tour idea was hatched. The film follows Knight and a variety of young subversives on tour as they shock and awe spectators in the U.S. before bringing their music to Pakistan. They break every taboo along the way— as Knight exclaims, they're giving the finger to both sides. The film charts their brave, foolish, and often exhilarating attempts to navigate the gap between their cultures and their countries, their religion and their individuality. (80 mins., HD video)
