Hunter parents are paying hundreds of dollars to repair government-funded high school laptops because students are vandalising the outside.
At least two Hunter high schools have had to issue warnings to parents because of issues.
Under the maintenance contract for the Digital Education Revolution laptops, if students hand in their notebook for internal repairs and the computers are not in good condition on the outside the repairers deem it malicious damage and the unit out of warranty.
It means parents are asked to cover the cost of both internal and external repairs and even a replacement.
Maitland Grossman High had to warn its students they were not permitted to carve their names in the case, remove keys or plastic frames, remove branding badges or write all over the laptop.
The computers are leased to high school students until the end of year 12, when they own it.
At Hunter School of Performing Arts some parents of year 9 students who received the units this year have had to pay the minimum repair cost of $274 because of carelessness or accidental damage.
Principal Richard Jennings told parents that students should not leave a laptop bag unattended.
''There have been incidents where someone causes damage by sitting on a bag containing a laptop and arguments have ensued about who is responsible to pay for the damage caused,'' he said.
Most schools have laptop use charters and parents and students are urged to read and comply.
It follows a recall of year 9 laptops earlier this year because of the threat of overheating.
There was a minor cabling defect detected in three laptops in NSW and two of them had mechanical failures.

14 April 2014 - Second victory of the season for Team Caja Rural Seguros RGA! In the Klasika Amorebienta the 24 year old Pello Bilbao of Caja Rural Seguros RGA was the best in a sprint of two. The young talented rider outsprinted Movistar rider Gorka Izaguirre in the 60th edition of this race. For the young Pello Bilbao it is his first victory as a professional rider.
21 March 2014 - At the Abu Dhabi long distance triathlon Bas Diederen took second place! The Dutch triathlete is one of the FFWD Wheels triathletes and member of Team4Talent. The ambitious team is focussed on growing its athletes towards great results. Bas had much to win on the bike and therefore dedicated last winter to train and improve this part. Besides hard work and long hours of training the position on the bike has been tuned and optimalized. All hard work resulted in the fastest bike split at the Abu Dhabi triathlon and a second place overall on the long distance! We are all looking forward what more will come this season!
25 November 2013 - Jasper De Buyst won the Six Day Race of Flanders in Gent! Partnered with the German Leif Lampater the Belgian rider of Topsport Vlaanderen-Baloise was too strong for the competition. In the final race the two men took the lead with only a small difference in points. For De Buyst his victory in Gent was a nice present for his 20th birthday. Photo: © Cor Vos
4 November 2013 - Final victory of Team Vacansoleil-DCM on Curacao! With a solo finish Johnny Hoogerland provided Team Vacansoleil-DCM its last victory in the Amstel Curacao Race. As the team did not find new sponsors for the 2014 season and beyond it is the last time this shirt crossed the finish line. Hoogerland, the Dutch National Champion, announced last week that he will continue his carreer in Italy next year. For FFWD Wheels it is the last victory on World Tour level for now. In 2014 there will be several teams on Pro Continental and Continental level on FFWD but we will return on the highest level of cycling soon. FFWD Wheels would like to thank Team Vacansoleil-DCM and its riders for the feedback, victories and other great moments during the last three years! It was our pleasure to be part of this team!

Make your last line of defense as strong as it can be. The Complete Soccer Goalkeeper offers a comprehensive reference and training guide for goalkeepers and their coaches. It shows how to develop keepers from the youth leagues to the pros and covers all aspects of what many believe is soccer's most challenging role.
Tim Mulqueen has been coaching goalkeepers at all levels since 1990 and is currently the goalkeeper coach with the United States national teams. He is also the goalkeeper instructor for the U.S. Soccer Federation A, B, and C licenses and has helped in the establishment and curriculum for the newly formed U.S. Soccer Federation goalkeeping license.
Mulqueen was an assistant coach and goalkeeper coach for the United States at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. He has coached athletes who have gone on to achieve worldwide recognition, including England Premier League players Tim Howard, Kasey Keller, Marcus Hahnemann, and Brad Guzan. Before joining U.S. Soccer, Mulqueen coached in the MLS where he won the 2000 MLS Cup and Supporters Shield. While in the MLS, Tim coached Zach Thornton, who went on to win the 1998 Goalkeeper of the Year award. Tim also coached U.S. international goalkeeper Tony Meola when, in 2000, he became the only goalkeeper to win the MLS MVP Award, in addition to being named Goalkeeper of the Year. Mulqueen has coached in four Youth World Cups, two at the U-20 level and two at the U-17 level. He resides in Bradenton, Florida, with his wife, Kathleen, his son, Trevor, and daughter, Cate.
Mike Woitalla is the executive editor of Soccer America, where he has worked since 1985. He has covered four World Cups for the magazine and has reported on soccer from 17 nations. His freelance articles have appeared in more than 30 media outlets in eight countries.
Woitalla is a regular contributor to the British soccer monthly When Saturday Comes and has won six NSCAA Writing Contest awards as well as two Professional Soccer Reporters of America awards. He is the coauthor of former U.S. national team captain Claudio Reyna's book More Than Goals.
Woitalla is a graduate of the University of California at Berkeley, where he was a member of the Golden Bears varsity soccer team. He currently coaches youth soccer and is married to Holly Kernan, a public radio producer, host, and reporter. They live in Oakland, California, with their daughter.
"The Complete Soccer Goalkeeper is a must-have for goalkeepers and their coaches. From tactics to strategies, Mulqueen and Woitalla cover it all."

Detroit Pistons courting European coach Zeljko Obradovic?
Meet Zeljko Obradovic.
Not to be confused with former Pistons' center Zeljko Rebraca, Obradovic is arguably the most intriguing candidate to be mentioned for Detroit's vacant head-coaching position.
But who is Zelly (that's what I've already decided I'll call him) Obradovic, you ask?
Euroleague.net has the background:
The winningest coach in Euroleague history is none other than Zeljko Obradovic. A World champion as a player in 1990, Obradovic led Partizan to its only Euroleague title in 1992, downing Joventut in the final. He compensated Joventut's fans by leading them to the 1994 Euroleague title, the only crown in club history. Obradovic then joined Real Madrid and won his third Euroleague title in 1995. He also won Saporta Cup titles with Madrid in 1997 and Benetton in 1999 before joining Panathinaikos. In his 10 seasons with the Greens, Obradovic has won nine Greek league crowns, five Greek Cups and four Euroleague titles in 2000, 2002, 2007 and 2009. Obradovic also captured gold at EuroBasket 1997 and the 1998 World Championship with Yugoslavia
He's the Red Aurebach or Phil Jackson of Europe. If we blindly judged coaches on "ringz" like some do players, he'd be an absolutely obvious pick for the job in Detroit.
There is a catch, though.
We know very little about him. Yes, he's got the resume, but his style of play is still somewhat ambiguous and, unless you are fluent in reading Spanish, his intentions with an NBA team are somewhat confusing — potentially because the Google Translation of this Spanish article is tough to understand.
El Contraataque has nearly all details regarding Obradovic and the Pistons:
The contract would be set at a figure close to $ 4 million this season. Amount charged similar to his predecessor Lawrence Frank in Detroit. Obradovic want a computer in order to compete effectively and get to play offs. Detroit has more than enough cap room since they only have committed for next season of $ 30 million.
But this excerpt from the same post may be the most interesting part of the entire idea:
Coach Zeljko Obradovic wants to be assuming functions to propose a signature basketball, similar to that practiced Greg Popovich in San Antonio Spurs but with the virtues that characterize the former coach of Panathinaikos.
Popovich has a lot of pull in the Spurs organization — especially after once serving as the team's GM before successfully appointing himself as head coach — and from the way that sounds, it may feel like Obradovic wants in on Dumars' personnel decisions.
With as big of a summer as this is for the Pistons, that would mean putting your hope into the hands of a currently not-so-well-thought-of Dumars and a coach with zero experience as any sort of coach in the NBA.
It's a boom-or-bust idea, but that might be what this team needs. You can only pluck the wrong up-and-coming assistant or retread coach so many times before you need to hit it big, again.
Dumars has endured three bad hires after three good coach. Maybe the ultimate off-the wall-pick – Obradovic wasn't even considered for our list of 23 potential Pistons coaches – would get Dumars back into the win column.
According to team writer Keith Langlois (hat tip: Matt Watson of Detroit Bad Boys), Obradovic has been around the Pistons during training camp and preseason, just observing. Perhaps he likes what he sees with the roster.
Who knows whether this rumor has legs or is the product of a media environment much different from our own? According to the Spanish article, Obradovic is one of the final two candidates along with "an American coach."
Either way, it's certainly an interesting idea.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:16 pm
by tarsier
I'm intrigued. But it would be an issue to have a coach who struggles with English.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:18 pm
by Mark
Based on McMillan's name seeming to come up the most among "American" candidates, I'm going to guess the search may be down to Obradovic and McMillan, if that report is true.
And if so…
Obradovic >>>>>> McMillan
All Day.
McMillan may be a solid coach, but does he have greatness in him? I don't see it. And unless they want to just find someone to get them back into the playoffs, and then have to hire someone else again in 2 yrs to succeed in the playoffs, McMillan doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
On the other side, Obradovic has proven he has greatness in him. Either it will translate to the NBA or it won't. But at least you know its in him. And being what could be Joe's last hire, why not go out with a bang?
Either Obradovic succeeds and Joe looks like a genius. Or it fails and he gets fired.
If you hire McMillan, he will maybe have a successful regular season and get us into the playoffs. But then when he can't get us out of the 1st round after 2 yrs, and Joe needs to make another coaching change to get us over the hump, Joe will get fired himself anyways for needing to fire another coach after 2 yrs.
Might as well go with the guy who has the best chance of leading us to a championship one day, and won't need to hire someone else to get us over the hump. If you compare resumes, even if neither has won an NBA championship, its easy to see Obradovic is the most likely of the two to succeed in winning big in the NBA.
I really like this idea.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:22 pm
by Thiago
I really like the idea too.
The styles are different. But if the europlayers can succeed, the eurocoach can too.
And here the most important thing: the guy is a winner. He knows basketball.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:24 pm
by Thiago
And also, I bet he speaks english better than a lot of players.
The whole world, aside from the americans, learns how to speak more than 1 language, like myself.
I woudn't worry about this.
Apr 22, 2013 • 5:46 pm
by oats
His English is much better than some American's English. I know that isn't saying much, nor does it disprove G's point. There are quite a few bilingual or multilingual Americans, but it isn't like the idea is all that far off. I for one am a unilingual American, and it doesn't seem like that's particularly rare.
I've been in a lot of places and met plenty of people who weren't American that only spoke one language. That said, I'll admit it's more likely someone from another country will speak multiple languages, maybe 3, 4 or 5. I once roomed with a guy who was Belgian-Congolese that spoke English & French very well, Dutch and Spanish less well, and probably Flemish to some extent.

If Calderon is still running the show next season, I think Zelly makes even more sense.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:24 pm
by mixmasta
Želimir "Željko" Obradovi? is one decorated coach and a former player himself.
I have to admit that I like the idea. But how would Free Agents react to this? Would it entice them, discourage or does not matter?
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:33 pm
by Mark
Compared to the alternatives – Sampson, McMillan, Fizdale, etc, I really don't think any of them would be attracting any FAs here either.
I personally think Obradovic would entice more than discourage, but from what I've read it seems the Pistons may be going more of the trade route than FA signings anyways, using the capspace to absorb other teams contracts in trades. So may not even matter.
One more thing on Obradovic though, I believe he has high praise from Popovich, who all players around the league respect. Bottom line, I think when you do something bold, which this would be, its more likely to attract external interest, than if you just go the safe route with a retread or assistant. Hiring Obradovic would at least get ppl around the league (and world) talking about the Pistons again, and that's the first step in attracting FAs.
Apr 22, 2013 • 5:08 pm
by mixmasta
I think I agree with you here. This may even expand the Pistons Fan Base. Win-win situation so far.
Apr 22, 2013 • 7:01 pm
by mixmasta
Sad but true.
I am a Piston fan based in The Philippines and most NBA fans here cheer for Miami because Coach Spoelstra is half Filipino.
Might be the same effect with Obradovic.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:27 pm
by France
European coaches are underrated. Obradovic is a genius, like Popovich in the NBA if you know what I mean. Dumars and the Pistons could make a big step forward if they sign Obradovic.

English (the language) doesn't appear as though it will be a problem for him.
Apr 22, 2013 • 4:56 pm
by Cliff
i hope he's actually a bit more charismatic/ upbeat when he coaches… but otherwise, i like what i'm seeing!
Apr 22, 2013 • 5:39 pm
by george21gs
he is a coach that loves defence ,and he have a lot of experience,his team use "slow tempo",and in panathinaikos he used a lot the pick and roll.Of course the language will be no problem for him.
The problem that i can see is the difference between tha philoshopy of basketball in europe, where coach have full controll of the team(trades for example) ,and full control of the locket room where coach is above any player,and thats why in 10 years that he(obradovic) was in panathinaikos he had some problems with players that had come from usa.
sorry for my english.
Apr 22, 2013 • 5:56 pm
by Mark
I don't think that would be a problem for this team though. When you look at our core guys right now – Monroe, Drummond, Knight, Singler, Middleton.
No egos at all. None whatsoever. All very coachable guys and hard workers.
Plus, he was already here during training camp, so there is a familiarity there for both sides. If he didn't think he could coach these players, he wouldn't be interested.
The only guy who could be problematic is Stuckey, but I've read that he is likely to be gone before next year, either through trade or just bought out.
Apr 22, 2013 • 6:00 pm
by Mark
As for giving him some player personnel control, that's not a bad thing. He knows whats best for his system more so than Joe. IIRC, Larry Brown had a lot of input into roster decisions when he was here.
I think if you want your coach to succeed, you have to let them be involved in the roster decisions. Otherwise you are just forcing players on them, who may or may not fit. That's kinda what has been going on here the last 5 yrs. Joe gets his guys and then forces a coach to make it work, and when it doesn't he gets another coach, and so on. Makes more sense to just let the coach pick who he wants to begin with.
Apr 22, 2013 • 5:41 pm
by George
He seems more upbeat in this interview (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXC7S4nbLm4).
He kinda gives off a European Popovich vibe, in that he answers questions sorta matter of fact-ly and to the point. He seems like a guy who will command respect from all the video footage out on him.
I am not exactly sure how much we can trust him to have Popovich-type power roster building-wise though? I know this would never happen, but I am sure a guy like P-Jax would consider coaching us if we gave him full control of roster moves. I always thought of him as being a bit overrated as a coach, but he is a master at working egos and getting guys to buy into a system.

This is where you are wrong. Ill rather have coach Pop that P-Jax because theres no ego here. We dont have any superstars that have a big ego.a coach Pop is better suited for us than P-JAx

Idk, he sounds better than any of our recent coaches. I still wish we'd go for a more obviously nba ready coach though.

I am familiar with him–and as alluded to by a number of people on here–I think the big issue will be the differing basketball cultures in the two continents. And I don't really mean the X's and O's, clearly he knows what he is doing in regards to that, but of player influence and reproach in the association. In Europe he would be the iron hand and players would fall in line without question, the "diva" attitudes that permeates the player culture in North America is simply not there; the game is actually treated as a team sport, by players and coaches alike. Player politics has gotten coaches with career equity like Jerry Sloan, Larry Brown, and even Phil Jackson in predicaments that even left them scythed. It would be an interesting experiment but I would question it's potential for success, even with this squad.

Jerry Sloan is my number one hands down. After that. It's a mixed bag and throw zelly in there too. But sloan should be target number 1.

i dont know what style does this euro coach implement but… the thing is… euroleague is not same as NBA…
they play the same sport… but different styles… slower and more shooters… we dont have them right now… so we need to get them here so that his style will work…
Apr 22, 2013 • 11:20 pm
by Vince
In the end, does a different style really change anything? If Zelly can bring in a new aspect of coaching and maybe renew what we thought of basketball and make it work then let it happen. This dude has a ton of rings, championship experience and has shown he can win, thats enough for me.

He is really exceptional. Sharp and proven winer. I can guarantee that will bring the team to playoff even with the current rooster. Also I truly believe that he will bring Vlade Divac as a help. They played together on Partizan championship team. He was the mastermind as a player and as a coach.

News flash: Nate McMillan is now the leading coaching candidate for the Pistons.
Apr 23, 2013 • 12:15 am
by Mark
That would be a travesty if true.
Lets see…European Phil Jackson…or American Borat…who do you choose Joe?
Joe: Give me the American Borat! I'll take McMillan!
Typical Dumars hire. Here I thought Joe was finally thinking outside the box again, like he did way back in 2003 firing Carlisle for Brown. Hiring Obradovic would be that kind of move again. Hiring McMillan would be like hiring Frank again.
Apr 23, 2013 • 12:32 am
by oats
I can't disagree with this more. McMillan has been a really good coach. There's a reason he was an assistant coach for the Olympic team, it's because the guy can really coach. McMillan's one of the 3 top guys on my wishlist, and I'd be really happy with him as the next Pistons coach.
Apr 23, 2013 • 1:22 am
by gmehl
@Mark The story indicates that McMillan is in the lead for the job but it doesn't mean that he has the job tied up. I am sure things like money demands, personell decision say will all play a factor in who gets the job. I really want McMillan but the other guy who I know little about intrigues me as well. The main thing is that Joe gets a guy that can move the team forward and grow with them. I must say though that I penciled in McMillan as soon as Frank was fired.
Yeah, really don't see the off-base comparison of McMillan to Frank. I'm willing to bet my next paycheck that at least 75% of the posters on here never thought twice about the "European Phil Jackson" til today, probably never even heard of him. If we really do get Nate, maybe we can get back to playing some real defense instead of just talking about it.

"maybe we can get back to playing some real defense instead of just talking about it"
Big Rick nail it with this comment. When your a team that lacks talent then the only way to get better apart from getting better players (which is obvious) is to start on the defensive end. Nate McMillan will bring that as a head coach.
What a joke. Hiring this guy will NEVER happen. Who wants to bring in a European coach. NBA coaches must know the ins and outs of the NBA, and also other players on opposing teams…and also speak clear english. This will not happen. He is not on the radar. Forget about it. It's all about home grown talent when it comes to NBA coaches. Sure, players can come from anywhere around the globe. But not coaches.
Apr 23, 2013 • 5:42 pm
by oats
That seems to be an awfully short sighted view. Are you suggesting he can't learn the NBA game, or that he can't hire someone to do a lot of the scouting for him? Heck, the NBA is available worldwide. Do you really know for a fact that he hasn't been watching the NBA game a great deal? I'm betting a fair amount Euro coaches watch a decent amount of NBA games and know a fair amount about the roster strengths and weaknesses of NBA teams, as well as strengths and weaknesses of individual players. It's only a matter of time before a foreign coach makes the leap. D'Antoni already helped bridge that gap. Yeah, D'Antoni is an American and already knew the NBA, but that is the first step towards getting a foreign born NBA coach. It'll happen eventually, a coach will make the leap. I don't know if it will be the first one or not, but eventually a coach will come over and be successful. There's just too many smart basketball guys worldwide for that not to happen eventually.
If I had to guess, I'd say we're still a few years away from someone doing it and this guy won't be the one to do it. I also think it is most likely that the first guy to do it will come over as a lead assistant for a couple years before getting the head coaching job, so I agree this guy is a long shot right now. It seems reasonable to think this guy is at least on the radar even if some of the stuff in the article seems crazy. For example, the idea that he is already one of two finalists in a search that is barely getting started seems hard to believe. I think that part is bogus, but I suspect there is some plausibility to him being considered as an outside the box option.
Your argument isn't that unlike the argument for why Euros would never succeed as players. They won't be able to adjust to the more physical style of play. They won't understand American systems. The won't be able to communicate effectively with team mates or coaches. That was obviously nonsense. I think you are almost certainly wrong in your assertion that NBA coaches have to be home grown. Unfortunately it will likely take too long for me to be proven correct for this argument to be remembered by either of us.

Sounds too good to be true, yet really intriguing. I hope Joe D makes this move it would be great. And as for free agents willing to come to Detroit; they would have to be intrigued by what he's done in Europe and some would probably want to be apart of this experiment just to make sure it works. Not to mention any foreign player would have to be willing to come to Detroit and this might just smooth things over with Jerebko if he is someone worth keeping. This would be a great thing for the Pistons.

Hey Pistons fans, long time Clipper fan over here thinking about coaches and saw the Obradovic story.
First off, mad respect for you guys. Don't be discouraged. You guys are just in a transition right now. It wont last 22 years. (I have some experience with discouraging seasons) Just keep the faith.
Second, Trust in Joe. Frank didn't work out, but ya can't fault Joe for that. Larry Frank is a bright guy and if he did work out, could have been the long term coach that grew with the team. Joe did draft Monroe though, and the gutsy hardworking Brandon Knight, and Andre Drummond. Joe's got a great eye for talent.
Thirdly, Zeljko Obradovic is legit. He's no guru though, so you cant compare him to Phil Jackson. He is not a player's coach, even though he was a player. Obradovic is a religion. You practice Obradovic when you play for him. You become an Obradovic-ite and if you sin, you sit until you repent.
The guy is a genius. And if you go in on him, you go all in. You make him a Jerry Sloan-in-Utah level Messiah. He is not for the weak at heart. Primadonnas need not apply. You submit or you get shipped. That being said: he wins. At all levels. He is the Jedi Master of coaching and the NBA has been denied his brilliance for far too long. It would be a significant coup to grab this guy before NJ or LA takes a look. He makes Phil Jackson look like Dr. Phil.

In his 10 seasons with Panathinaikos Athens, Obradovic has won nine Greek league crowns, five Greek Cups and five (not four as stated above) Euroleague titles in 2000, 2002, 2007 and 2009. You forget 2011 in Barcelona where Panathinaikos beat Barcelona Basketball Club in their home! In Athens used to call him "Zots". He gets 200% out of his players, also he and Itoudis create an amazing team atmosphere. Fans really adore him. You should know that Panathinaikos fans are very demanding in every aspect. He is a highly respected person all over Greece among every club. You lucky people in Detroit are getting a deal with NBA championship this summer. Wish you the best, Zots!
May 25, 2013 • 5:53 pm

Obradovic is a brilliant tactician . He is master at pick'n'roll offence . If a player sets aside his ego , he will be tremendously developed in defence and offence .
Watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48_HckET5m4 A few months later panathinaikos won the greek championship , the greek cup and of course the euroleague cup ( all 3 trophies available )
Zelico is strict and he is a winner . He builds the player's character into champions .

The proportion look good to me, you have a clean a precise trace. The only problem I see is on his eyes, the bright must be on the same side of the pupil, on your sketch they are both on the middle;
Please give me feedback on the body proportions of this 10 year old kid.
Ive never done anything like this before, nor do I have any experience on anime body proportions (and not really on real ones).
Does the proportion of the body change from this age onward? I know the head size does, but what about the relative lenghts of the body parts?
The proportion look good to me, you have a clean a precise trace. The only problem I see is on his eyes, the bright must be on the same side of the pupil, on your sketch they are both on the middle;
if the light source is between the subjects eyes, or directly in front of them, the shine is ok.
the proportions look pretty nice to me too.
Oh, you are right, I did not take it into consideration xDOriginally Posted by 17
But surely there must be some maths behind body measurements?
And I also asked:
Also, are the ears a bit low?Does the proportion of the body change from this age onward? I know the head size does, but what about the relative lenghts of the body parts?
I don't really feel that I am good with proportions. You can look at my art and tell me, but your proportions for the young kid seems pretty accurate to me (anime and human standard). The ears should be raised a bit higher. It should occupy the space from the eyes to the nose.
The proportion of the body does change over time, and though there is kind of a math to it, you have to look at it and see if it looks rightto you. Argh that made no sense, but sometimes when you draw, you always find yourself making adjustments so things look right. Though there is a math, you tend to stray away from it a bit so you can truly show how things like like in reality. Every guy isn't 6 feet tall and etc.
Okay enough of my 'wishy-washy' answer. I can give you the relative lengths for other body parts. These are measurements for children-adult, but like I said before, it may not always be exact.
Measurements are done according to head size (that sound so weird, but hopefully you know what I mean by head size....if not http://www.idrawdigital.com/2009/01/drawing-the-human-form-proportions-from-child-to-adult/ ).
The website give approximate lengths for a males at different ages, however this does not apply to all males. Remember, anime is an exaggeration of real life and in real life, not everyone is of average height. Some people are taller and some people are shorter. Anyways, back to giving you realative lengths. :P
An Arm length including hands: 3-4 heads approximately (this means that the length of one arm to the other is 6-8 heads, the approximate length of a human being)
The hands: 3/4 of an head for children and adults
The feet: 1 head
Width of the body: Skinny person: 1 head; Average/fit person: 2 heads; fat person/muscular: 2 1/2-3 heads (exaggeration)
I think that is all you may need. I hope this was of some help. Oh, females tend to be of a shorter height than males, but of course not all females are like this. The world is pretty diverse. :-)
Sorry for the double post but this image is what I meant by body width. You see that as the body become more muscular (or fatter LOL), it tends to grow in width size. http://www.idrawdigital.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/prop_var.gif
yes, the ears are a bit too low. the top of the ear is usually around the level of the middle/upper portion of the eye. I've seen ears drawn at all different heights though actually, depending on the style, so guess you could just go with whatever you think looks the best.
if there is a mathamatic system behind body proportions I'm not the one to ask about it, lol. I use a few tips when I draw; the length of the body from where the legs meet the torso should be equal too the length of the legs themselves, the tips of the fingers should reach roughly the middle of the sides when the arms are down, and the hand should be about the same length as the face from wrist to fingertips. but like I said, you already seem to have a pretty good grasp of proportions and anatomy, so I doubt you really need help in that department.
the only difference I've really noticed about proportions for different ages, besides the head shrinking, is that shoulders and hips are generally wider, the hips being more pronounced in females and the shoulders more pronounced in males. that's about it though. someone else might be able to give you more tips.
Thanks for the links.
I dont understand how you measure the body parts by comparing them to the head, I thought the head size changes over age?
I tried comparing my proportions with other art over the internet,
in some cases they match perfectly:
but in many cases either the hands appear to be too long or the legs appear to be too short:
I wonder if the relativeness of the hands+arms and legs changes over age. Does this make any sense?
Yeah that makes sense. It does change with age. A taller person would have a longer arms or legs than someone who is short.
Your proportions are right on because they match the body of the person. Other artwork may have pictures of a young boy, but with a different body type thus they have different proportions. Body Proportions depends on the body type of the individual rather than age.
Oh if you don't get the head thing, that is okay. It is actually more complicated than people make it out to be. Head size does change with age. The head size thing is just a relative unit used to measure different parts of the body. It is not exact, but it is a good measure to compare the torso to the legs for example.
I would say to keep comparing your picture to other pictures. You may find that you have to make slight adjustments or you may find that you don't have to change anything. Proportions are only specific to body, not age. So as long as everything matches well, you did good. Your picture looks spot on to me, so I hope you aren't comparing for too long. :)

What I did not like was, the remaining amount I was due to pay €351,00 but when I got my Visa -bill, I was charged €362,18. Not a big difference but difference anyway. In Hungary you get a nice dinner with that money, dont you? If I was told in advance while making booking the costs in forints, I would have happily paid that amount. Breakfast was good enough.

"Silver Apples on the Moon" was released in 1967 and was the first time that someone produced an album almost solely in post-production. It was certainly ahead of it's time, and may even be ahead of our time.
One of San Antonio's largest school districts has signed a memorandum of understanding with the city on the Pre-K 4 SA program.
The San Antonio Independent School district's board of trustees unanimously approved the partnership with the city last night. SAISD Spokeswoman Leslie Price said the agreement will be the framework between the district, city, and Texas Education Agency:
With ten days until the sequestration that prompts severe cuts to the nation's defense budget, some lawmakers in congress are speaking against the cuts that no side wants but no one can agree on how to fix.

Leonard Bernstein wrote only one original film score in his career, for Elia Kazan's classic film, "On the Waterfront," starring Marlon Brando as Terry Malloy, a troubled longshoreman and one-time contender who's gotten mixed up with the wrong crowd. Like Brando's character, Bernstein's score is a mixture of tenderness, violence, and nobility.
Since 2011, CPS Energy has been able to send out mass alerts to customers when widespread power outages occurred, coordinated by zip code.
But now their system is more sophisticated, and will notify individual customers when power outages more than 15 minutes occur at their specific address.
CPS spokeswoman Yvonne Casanova said the system will continue to be tested through the end of February. Over the next week or so, during regular business hours, customers who have signed up for alerts on the CPS website should receive a test message.
If you have had sticker shock at your neighborhood gas station then you are not alone. Gas prices in San Antonio have leaped nearly 14 cents in the past seven days according to Gasbuddy.com.

Broadway's Barbara Cook to Celebrate 85th Birthday at Segerstrom Center, 4/13
Broadway legend Barbara Cook returns to Segerstrom Center to celebrate her 85th birthday year with a performance in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall on Saturday April 13 at 8 p.m.
Cook's charisma, charm and amazing talent have delighted audiences around the world for more than 50 years. The Los Angeles Times calls her, "A force of musical nature. This is everywhere apparent - in her commitment to interpretive truth, her searching intelligence and certainly her joyous soprano, one of the most celebrated in Broadway history. Such magic is the stuff that creates legends and designates Cook as a National Treasure." To make the occasion even more special for her audience, Cook will remain on stage following the concert and answer questions that have been submitted via Facebook and Twitter. ASCAP Director of Musical Theatre Michael A. Kerker will be on hand to pose the questions to her.
Tickets for Barbara Cook start at $26 and are available online at SCFTA.org, at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa or by calling (714) 556-2787. For inquiries about group ticket savings for 10 or more, call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. The TTY number is (714) 556-2746.
Barbara Cook, who received a Kennedy Center Honor in 2011, returned to the Broadway stage in 2010 after a 23-year absence. She starred in the musical revue Sondheim on Sondheim directed by James Lapine for the Roundabout Theater Company, for which she was nominated for a Tony Award. Her ever-growing mantle of honors includes the Tony, Grammy, Drama Desk and New York Drama Critics Circle Awards, two Olivier Award nominations, her citation as a Living New York Landmark and her induction into the Theatre Hall of Fame. Cook's popularity continues to thrive with a succession of seven triumphant returns to Carnegie Hall (the most recent being her celebratory 85th birthday concert), where she made a legendary solo concert debut in 1975.
In November 2007, Cook celebrated her 80th birthday in a concert with the New York Philharmonic at Avery Fisher Hall. Due to intense popular demand, she returned for two encore concerts, singing to sold- out houses. In January 2006, Cook made her solo concert debut at the Metropolitan Opera House, becoming the first female pop singer to be presented by the Met in the company's 123 year history. The sold-out event was recorded and released as a live performance CD by DRG Records.
A native of Atlanta, Cook made her Broadway debut in 1951 as the ingénue lead in the musical Flahooley. She subsequently played Ado Annie in the City Center revival of Oklahoma!, followed by a national tour of that hit show. In 1954 her performance as Carrie Pipperidge in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Carousel led to the role of Hilda Miller in the original production of Plain and Fancy. Cook went on to create the role of Cunegonde in the original production of Leonard Bernstein's Candide. This was followed by her creations of two classic roles in the American musical theatre - Marian the Librarian in the premiere production of Meredith Willson's The Music Man, a performance which earned her the Tony Award, and Amalia in the Bock-Harnick-Masteroff musical She Loves Me. Cook appeared in two other celebrated City Center revivals: as Mrs. Anna in The King and I and a second production of Carousel, this time playing the role of Julie Jordan. She was Magnolia in the New York State Theatre's production of Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein's Showboat. Cook originated the role of Patsy in Jules Feiffer's Little Murders and, in 1972, she returned to the dramatic stage in the Repertory Theatre of Lincoln Center's production of Gorky's Enemies.

Sailfish & Coffee
Costa Rican Gold
By Danny Smith
|The Captain yelled, "FISH FISH!!!! He is coming around at your three O'clock! READY!?" Terrified, I looked at Mike, my partner; he looked back at me terrified. We had no idea what was about to happen. Mike said "Ready Danny? Hand me your coffee!" "Umm, Sure" I said. I grabbed the 15 weight Sage Rod (or the broomstick with guides); I quickly pulled out about 40 feet of line and laid large coils on the deck of the boat. I held the rod tightly in my wet right hand, and clasped the sailfish popper fly in my shaking left hand. Then over the roar of the motor the captain yelled, "He is due in front of you 80 feet. Start casting!" Immediately I started casting into a double-haul, aiming at the one-and-a-half-foot teaser following the boat. With that the captain placed the boat in neutral (IGFA rules) and the boat mate started reeling in the teaser. When the teaser was about 50 feet away the boat mate yanked with all of his strength to pull the teaser out of the water. As soon as the teaser left the water I dropped the popper where the teaser had been.
|"STRIP IT! STRIP IT FAST!" yelled the captain. With that, a sword about 3 feet in length breached the water after the fly. Now behind the sword is a shadow that is about 6 feet in length and has some serious depth. I have done quite a bit of fishing in my life, but I have never been so excited and scared at the same time. Thankfully, practice and training had taken over. I was strip-setting the hook, and the fight was on! The fish immediately took to the air with acrobatics and speed like I could not believe.
|While an adrenalin rush had taken hold, I had a strange feeling that something was amiss. Something was burning. It was me! Still being a novice to a fish of this magnitude, and being so excited, I had my hand over the fly line when I first hooked the fish. The fly line was going so fast it melted my glove and blistered my fingers. So I had a white blister in a perfect line across all four fingers. That is the kind of speed I am talking about! This fight went on for about an hour and we boated the fish. I was exhausted!
|The captain said, "Ahh, that was a good warm up. That was a baby at about 130 pounds." I turned to Mike "A baby? Warm up?" I said in a whimpering voice as I sat down, my legs shaking from excitement and exhaustion! Mike handed my coffee back and laughed at me.
Mike headed aft on the boat and grabbed his Scott 15 weight. He had enough time to get the rod to lean against the transom, pull about 40 feet of line off and lay large coils on the deck, when the captain yelled "FISH! FISH!" and it started all over again. Now Mike turned to me with a smile because he knew what he was in for!
Fly-fishing for sailfish is a unique and unforgettable experience. Your equipment is fairly simple. You will need a 14, or 15-weight rod with 8.5 or 9 feet in length. I used a Ross Reel Big Game Canyon 8. I was very impressed with the train stopping power of this reel and with almost a mile of backing! Make certain you have a reel with a drag that can stop a moped. Your fly selection consists of a sailfish popper.
| The sailfish popper is a hard foam head with
a hollow tube in the middle for the shock line to pass through. Grab all
of the tail feathers off a chicken and shove that onto the foam head and
epoxy. Wrap the foam head with a prismatic foil pattern, add eyes and you
are done. This fly is anywhere from 6-9 inches in length and varies in color
from pink and white to blue and white. The sailfish popper imitates flying
fish to the sailfish.
Next you will need to PRACTICE! Practice casting. Practice double hauling. Practice casting. And finally practice casting, double hauling, and being accurate at about forty feet. You will want to be able to land a sock within a hula-hoop within about 3 casts. Did I mention you want to practice? These large rods are like nothing most people have ever thrown before.
Fly-fishing for sailfish is the big game hunting of fly-fishing. It is very fast, but when you hook up with your first fish there is so much adrenaline, and excitement, everything slows down and moves in slow motion -- until that fish realizes it is hooked and it takes off flipping, jumping a peeling line off your reel until it is almost a half a mile away, before the boat can begin to catch up with it.

S.I. No 339 of 2011 - European Communities (Clean and Energy Efficient Road Transport Vehicles) Regulations 2011
Last year, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport made regulations transposing into national law of EU Directive 2009/33/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the promotion of clean and energy-efficient road transport vehicles.
This Directive requires Member States to ensure that public contracts for the procurement of road transport vehicles promote the least emitting and most energy-efficient road transport vehicles by requiring the procurer to take account of vehicle lifetime costs for energy consumption, CO2 emissions and pollutant emissions.
The regulations (S.I. No 339 of 2011 - European Communities (Clean and Energy Efficient Road Transport Vehicles) Regulations 2011) compel public sector bodies and public transport operators, including local authorities and semi-state bodies, to assess energy and environmental impacts on operational lifetime costs when making decisions regarding the purchase of road transport vehicles. They apply where a public sector body or operator is tendering for the purchase of road transport vehicles and the contract is estimated to have a value equal to or greater than the EU thresholds for supply contracts.
The energy and environmental impacts to be taken into account are energy consumption, emissions of CO2 and emissions of pollutants including oxides of nitrogen (NOx), Non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) and particulate matter (PM10). Contracting authorities, contracting entities and operators are also allowed the flexibility to, at their discretion, take into account other environmental impacts.
The requirement of the Directive to take energy and environmental impacts into account can be applied in one of three ways:
Setting technical specifications for energy and environmental performance in the documentation for the purchase of road transport vehicles e.g. authorities engaged in a procurement exercise for passenger cars could set a technical specification which required that all vehicles involved in the procurement exercise had CO2 emissions lower than a specified limit and met the Euro 5 standards for NOX, NMHC and PM10 emissions;
Using energy and environmental impacts as award criteria in a procurement procedure e.g. the purchasing authority could decide to give a weighting of, say, 25% to energy and environmental impacts and to operate a scoring scheme such that vehicles being procured were awarded higher marks for low carbon emissions, low pollutant emissions and high fuel economy.
Including energy and environmental impacts in the purchasing decision by monetising them in accordance with set methodology provided within Directive 2009/33/EC. The level of weighting to be applied to these criteria, relative to others, would remain at the discretion of the contracting body. The difference is that with this option the procuring organisations would monetise the energy and environmental impacts and consider these alongside other elements of the bid. The Directive sets out in some detail the methodology that should be applied. It requires calculating the lifetime costs for energy consumption, CO2 and other emissions of the vehicle using defined energy fuel content values, cost of emissions values and vehicle lifetime mileages.
The regulations allow any of these optional approaches provided for in the Directive to be employed in assessing energy and environmental impacts on operational lifetime costs in evaluating competing tenders. This approach provides maximum flexibility for those seeking tenders allowing them to use the methodology best suited to their particular tender size and circumstances.
For copies of the Regulations, the Directive or any further information please contact the NSTO at the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport at email@example.com.

Personally I ONLY like cast iron tubs... I know acrylic is very popular but after years of use (or if someone uses comet cleanser a time or two) it's more likely to show its age. Cast iron IMO holds up much better.
Here in the states Home Depot has the Kohler Villager cast iron in white for something like US$300. Volume speaks! That's a great deal if you need a 5 foot alcove tub with an apron. They have left and right drain.
If you can't spring for the iron tub, as I said I personally wouldn't screw with an acrylic... there are places that can come to your house and repair those enamel tubs. I had it done once on a rental I owned... worked real well... no one would ever notice the repair.

UPDATED 6:35 P.M.: Fulton County Commissioner Liz Hausmann wants her counterpart, Emma Darnell, to show her and county staff some respect, rather than continue to pit North and South Fulton against each other.
A two-minute excerpt of the more than 26 minutes of discussion on the Transportation Investment Act of 2012 is embedded with this article. Visit the Fulton County website to view the entire discussion, or the entire archived meeting video.
Hausmann sent District 5 Commissioner Darnell a letter today, May 4, two days after words were exchanged during a discussion on the T-SPLOST amendment.
After receiving a copy of the letter, Darnell responded that no politican can tell residents what is good for them.
"No politician, including Commissioner Hausmann can tell the people of South Fulton what is good for them and that includes how to vote on the TSPLOST referendum. Give the people the facts – they will decide for themselves," Darnell said in her email in a request for a response from Patch.
The commissioners will give ultimate approval for projects funded with the 15 percent share of the 1 percent sales tax collected in South Fulton if the measure passes on the July 31 election.
South Fulton would get an estimated $2.9 million per year for the 10-year life of T-SPLOST, if the region's voters approve the sales tax.
After getting that explanation from staff, District 3 Commissioner Hausmann told her fellow commissioners she thought that was a significant amount of funding. Darnell, however, took issue with that and interrupted, saying "It's not your place" and that she didn't represent South Fulton.
Hausmann responded to say she was an elected commissioner and she did have a say. Two days later, she sent the letter that accompanies this article, which concludes:
"I call upon you to quell your obvious animosity toward me, North Fulton, and staff in our public meetings. I respect your service to the community and ask for the same respect in return. Our community deserves no less," she said.
