To the Editor: When I read ''Foie Gras Fracas: Haute Cuisine Meets the Duck Liberators'' (Sept. 24), I was expecting a little more public outrage over a group of people taping a family in the privacy of their home in order to terrorize the father, a chef, into not serving foie gras. As a chef...

Thru-hiker has some great stuff that you can't find anywhere else, but if it is the cheapest price you found you must have missed OWFinc.com, questoutfitters.com and backwoodsdaydreamer.com who also carry great stuff at much friendlier prices.

To add to the collective reports of experience with different DIY vendors:
I just got my first order from http://www.backwoodsdaydreamer.com/ Order came in a reasonable amount of time, well packaged, and was spot on what I ordered. Shipping price was fair, although on the higher side, IMHO ($20 on a $170 order, but I had 15 yards of bulky Insultex and 16 yards of nylon, so it was a bit bulky) Quality of everything looks good so far. The ripstop that was listed as "2nds" looks like first quality to me. BWDD's $3 ripstop is awesome. Cheaper than JoAnn ripstop even after using a 1/2 off coupon, and in much more outdoor friendly colors. Have also ordered from QuestOutfitters.com and Arrowhead Equipment and was pleased with the speed, quality and selection there as well. Shipping costs were better than BWDD, but I didn't order as bulky stuff... so maybe not a fair comparison. I can happily recommend both BWDD, Arrowhead, and Quest to anyone looking for DIY materials. My only regret in ordering from either is that I should have ordered more of some things, since shipping makes it hard to justify ordering just a handful of inexpensive things like thread, cord, locks, shock cord, grosgrain, etc. Speaking of shock cord... I just have to remember to always figure out how much shock cord I'll need, then order at least 4x that amount. Don't know how I go through so much shock cord.

It's nice to see that you are starting to get a bit more stock on your web site; but frankly if you are going to blow your own trumpet... the least you can do is be honest and up-front about what you are doing.... ie; blatant self-promotion... I read your post earlier in the day when in it's original and complete form. Looks like you have edited it or been censored?? Fair enough too. I'm looking for specific products... If you carry in stock what I'm looking for and your price is right, I may order from you... But I'm not going to go chasing after you... You'll need to find a way to keep me up to date of 'developments', news, etc............... |

5.00 rating Carrier works great and looks beautiful by Angela on November 14, 2012
I love this product. My baby sleeps in it and it doesn't hurt my back. Even better, the pretty pattern looks great.
3.00 rating Very pretty, but hot by S.W. on July 13, 2012
I purchased this after about 1year of wishing I could have it. Wish I would do little bit more research and purchased Beco Butterfly II. It is very pretty, works well, but believe it is little bit too big for me. I am 5'2" 130 lbs. I will keep it, works well for short distances and I believe my daughter will like it more Once she is little bit bigger for back carry. I am planning to have second child so will use it w him/her. |

Mike Corriero- Damn that Terryl Whitlatch! She has replaced Wayne Barlowe as the artist who most often sneaks into my creature designs. In my defense, I imagined #58 as more of a hammerhead frog, whereas the Gorg (or whatever that thing is called in the book) is more of a Diplocaulus frog. But yeah, it's too close. It's interesting that everyone, including me, has different favorites among my designs. Your favorites and my favorites seem to have the most overlap, though.
zweiDei- Thank you!
markeshi- Thank you for the kind and encouraging words. Comparing myself to others is a trap I often fall into, unfortunately.
OBX- Thanks!
James Wolf- Coming from the man who, in my opinion, has one of the two or three best collections of creature designs in the round, that means a lot. Thanks!
Ignonimious- Thanks, buddy. I'm going to go over to your sketchbook and critique you one of these days, I swear.
spazozo- Thank you.
longshao- Sweet! I'm looking forward to the larger versions. Yeah, it was only in the last 30-40 that I finally settled on a method on how to work on these things as well. I'll definitely have to research some insects and other invertebrates. I learned a bit from your mentoring thread already.
Damn, I think that's the most comments I've ever gotten between updates!
Anyway, I've begun to render out some of my thumbnails. Here's my work on #1 so far. The values and rock forms still aren't finalized. I'm heading out into somewhat new territory with this one. I'm starting out with values, instead of diving straight into color. I'm experimenting with more texture in both the creature (using the Sphynx cat as a reference) and on the background. I'm also doing quite a bit of the work on Painter. Jason Chan's video encouraged me to get try to get to learn that program a little better.
So here's what I think about this creature's biology. I was a little doubtful when I increased the size of this image, because the creature has few sense organs. Its head has no eyes, ears, or visible mouth; just nostrils. So, what the heck does it do? How the heck does it get around? Here's what I think. It's a very cautious, slow-moving creature, relying on its sense of touch and sensitivity to vibrations. It always reaches out a testing hand before taking another step. It eats only a certain type of rock-growing moss, to which its sense of smell is specially attuned. It consumes the moss by scraping its snout over it and drawing plant matter into its small, almost invisible mouth. The scraping action would explain the downturned shape of its muzzle, as that would perhaps be a more efficient scraping shape. The need to scrape surfaces at various angles would also explain why a creature that is blind, deaf, and therefore has no sense organs that it needs to aim has such a mobile head. When it senses a threat approaching through the sensitive pads of its feet, it simply curls up and presents its highly venomous spines. Why is it blind, though? I don't know. Perhaps, fairly recently, its star underwent a change and began to emit light in a different spectrum, invisible to the ancestors of this species. Individuals who carried genes that caused blindness did just as well as those who could see. Because the blind ones survived long enough to mate, when before they had almost always died, the blind genes proliferated and eventually became the norm. Why no ears? Perhaps creatures on this world have evolved a vibration-sensing method similar to insects, who have their "ears" on their legs in some cases. In that case, it didn't loose any ears on its head; it never had them.
I hope some of you enjoyed that speculation. I rarely figure out this stuff ahead of time. I just make up a story that fits afterwards.
Edit: Looking at it now, I think the composition might be calling for more space to the left.
God wants to trade pokemon with you.
amazing sketchbook, very imaginative.
Hey Moai, very cool to see all those blown up. Great job on the 100.
You're an artist, not a meat camera. -Elwell
Grief- Tell God I said okay! Thank you.
Jens- Thanks.
Blue Severin- Thank ya kindly.
So now a complete about face from the creatures, and on into some perspective and lighting practice. Though this sketchbook doesn't really show it at all, I've actually had some pretty sound instruction when it comes to perspective, via a couple high school level mechanical drawing classes. So I know about station points and side and top elevations and all that, at least somewhat. Note that these aren't really serious illustrations, just practice. The values could probably be better. I need to buy some simple foam cubes and cylinders and whatnot and do some still lives. I feel the need for some very basic practice in lighting and form.
So anyway, yeah, the images.
-Did this a few days ago. You can kinda see the technique I was using, and you may notice that it was somewhat half-assed. The cube doesn't look like a cube at all. I think it has something to do with the position of my station point (the little cross near the bottom, where the observer is theoretically standing outside of the picture plane), and with the angle at which I put the top views of the shapes. I don't really know the rules for those things, yet.
-Another one I did last night/today. This one was quite challenging, since I have a much more complex shape than a simple rectangular prism. Drawing the shape itself in perspective was cake, but doing the cast shadows was tough, especially figuring out the position of the right edge of the cast shadow of the tall box, since that shadow falls across three different planes.
-A non-cropped, zoomed out view of the previous image, with every layer turned on.
-Same image, shape perspective alone.
-Same image, with all the lines I used to figure out the shadows. There wouldn't be so many if I hadn't made some mistakes.
Not that exciting to look at, but informative. For me at least. I'll probably be making some progressively more complex images like this in the future. Like I said, I'm also going to be doing some still lives, so I'll be more accurate when I make up values for different planes.
you're gonna be so famous someday man! that creature is amazing

Such variety and interest! I think you've got a knack for creature creation, and I was excited to see you participated in the CoW 100, and also the mentoring section.
It's nice to see another Terryl Whitlatch fan on the boards! Did you hear she's (been) teaching at The Academy Of Art University? I'd love to pick her brain and watch her work.
I don't know if I'll make it to Seattle, but if I do, I'd love to meet up!
Ignonimious- Thanks! I'm catching up with all my sketchbook critiquing, so you're next for that!
Sway West- Thanks! Yeah, Terryl Whitlatch Terryl Whitlatch Terryl Whitlatch. I like her. Meeting at Seattle would be cool. Hope you can make it!
Here's what the past hour or so has done to this pic. I've gotten the values much closer to where I want them, and expanded it to the left. Now its just a matter of tackling the color issue, and then going in for the rendering.
Holy Cow!! Literally! Man your stuff looks beter and better! Your cow 100 rocks! I like how each creature looks plausible and is unique in its own way. Its great to see you learning perspective, itll be really helpful to your spatial design as a whole! Good work!
Amer-Nazri- Thanks, man. Yeah, the practice with shadows is already informing me somewhat, even in this latest picture that I'm working on.
Colorized, and now beginning to render.
Moai.... You're awesome man. A constant inspiration and fuel for my imagination. One day I hope to do mostly creature design and your art makes me just want grab some paper and draw some creatures. Your COW 100 blows mine out of the friggin park. I don't know why you've already bought your ticket for Seattle, you'll probably win... put me on the list if you do for ticket donations
I think if I put twice the amount of time on the ideation my creatures would look SSOOOOOOOO much better. Your ideas are just great!

Tell you what, Moai. It would be far easier for me to provide critique if you made something that has something so wrong that I would notice it.
Before I was lazy to critizice, as usual, and when I feel like actually doing it, damnit, you go and screw it up by making such work that simply can't be critiziced by me.
Oh well. Keep up the great work, you prick. Haha =P
Very cool design on the creatures. Interesting to watch. I have not read all pages. So I ask here instead. Are those creatures for something special? Good job nevertheless!
It's really cool to see the full pics from your COW page. Great to see all this stuff from ya man.
Heh, I might get to meetcha in Seattle, not sure yet.
great creatures. Your vibrant colors keep em fresh too.
Jake Kobrin- Thanks, dude!
MonsterKill- I know, I know. I'll try not to be so damn good.
joaKimArt- They were for the 100th round of Creature of the Week. Thanks!
KamikazeBob- I hope you choose to go. Thank you.
FactorZero- Thank ya.
So yeah, here's as far as my critter went before I got tired of it. That's how pretty much all of my paintings have been going lately. Oh well.
But forget about that. Here's the beginning of what will be a multi-stage dump of my figure drawings for this semester. These are kind of mixed up in terms of the order that I did them, but what the hay.
Sorry for the long delay before this update.
wow! nice update! This is a side of your work i rarely see, and its great! Great life drawings, love the bold strokes on that portrait. As for crits, in the last life drawing, I cant help but notice that his pelvis is too small in comparison to his upper body, and his left arm looks a bit wide. Great stuff all round, I'd like to see more of these!!
Thanks, Amer-Nazri! Your wish is my command!
Good to see you're not only doing creatures hehehe
How big are the life drawings and what time frame did you do them in?
I hope I get to talk with you at the workshop!
Thanks, Jake. Well, all of these are BIG. The drawings on black paper were 28 inches on the long side, I believe, and the rest were done from rolls of paper that were 42 inches. So yeah, they big.
And we definitely need to meet in Seattle. You're my mentee, for Pete's sake!
someone's sketchbook is getting popular
i feel like ive never seen any figure drawings from this guy!!! good work man. these are all very good studies. i think at this point, i can no longer properly constuctively critic you
anyways, im working on going to seattle during the workshop but i will not be attending off to visit some friends up there. anyways, i got a new phone and you should definitely shoot me your number again for a potential meeting (one more try) and drawing jam
Hi man, very good stuff, your fantasy anatomy looks great, and you rendered the form very good at the end. Anyway, pretty cool drawings around here.
very nice figure drawings, and i really really like your creatures design, i might need to start drawing animals.
moooaaaiii!!!! where are you?

If you are hearing this message, then Moai is probably either working long holiday hours at his retail job, or doing homework for school. He will resume the regular creation and posting of artwork probably sometime next week, when his assignments are complete and this damn semester is finally over. Moai thanks you for your patience and support.
Hey, everybody! Well, it's been a loooong few weeks for me. My figure drawing class has been pretty much my only art outlet lately, with my longer work hours and homework. But my homework is all done save for one online test and a few more lifedrawings, so I finally have time to get back into my personal art groove. I've spent the past few hours sketching up a new mermaid picture for my mom (this time for Christmas), and it feels so good to simply be making markings on a surface. So, here she is. She's more of a lionfish this time, as opposed to a carp, and she has some seahorse friends. I'm going to put some sort of top on her in a future stage of the drawing, but I think I'll also keep a topless version for myself.
I think one benefit of not being able to draw very much is that I spent a lot of time thinking of drawing. That can be very helpful as well. A lot of times I'll sketch or even paint without really thinking, and having time just to roll information around in my brain and observe light and color in the real world has been helpful.
redspade- Oh, pshaw. I'm not that good. You can still find flaws in my work and point them out to me. Thanks, though.
lennon- Thanks!
Draniel- Thanks, man. Follow the mentoring link in my signature. I'm not taking any mentees right now, but all the information is there, free to view, and I worked hard to gather it up.
Ignominious- Whaaaazzzuuuupp...I'll never say that agian.
your mom's hot :p
i think that the arms and head is too small. but other than that, good start so far i want to see this juxtaposed with your previous one!
I otta smack you for that. In seriousness, though, her face will be based on the face of this rather striking looking woman/girl who comes into my work every now and then. It's a very pretty, interesting face, with very round, wide-set eyes. I've been paying a lot more attention to the way people look, you see.your mom's hot :p
You're absolutely right about that. I even took my linework and pasted it over the image from Character Designs.com that I'm using for reference, and sure enough. Thanks.i think that the arms and head is too small. but other than that, good start so far
I chose the pose specifically for it to be the opposite of my previous mermaid's pose, so the two images can complement each other. But really, I hope this new image that I make kicks the old mermaid picture's ass. I don't like to sound pessimistic, but I consider pretty much every aspect of the last mermaid image to be a failure. Values, colors, shapes, composition, everything. At least other people like it.i want to see this juxtaposed with your previous one!
Woah, man!! SOOOOOO much improvement since I last checked in. The 100-creature challenge has done a lot for your rendering skills and your handling of charcoal on the figures is wonderfully delicate. I paricularily love the way you handled the drawing of the old man.
Out of all 100 creatures you've done I'd have to say that my favourite page is the Feathered Desert-Runners. I recently got a book on dinosaurs and those feathered desert-runners look wonderfully raptor-like. Have you ever heard of Microraptor? It had four wings and was super-awesome. You should look it up.
I love how you've brought such bright colours into many of your creatures. It gives them a feeling of possibly inhabiting the same universe (A bright, colourful world full of wonder and variety.) I wonder what results you'd get if you tried to draw desert creatures that needed to camoflage themselves in the sand to survive, or maybe if you tried drawing cave-dwelling creatures that are blind and can't see colour and so don't rely on striking plumage to attract a mate.
I agree with Mike Correiro about the general lack of Invertebrates. Don't forget the crablike things and tubeworm-eque monsters. I'd love to see some crazy, blind deep-sea-dwelling gigantic arthropods.
Katfay- Thanks! I'm really glad to see you back here again. I'm going to have to hop over to your sketchbook before long, too. Microraptor, huh? I'll definitely look it up. And giving my critters such bright colors might be getting to be somewhat of a problem. Most real animals are rather drab. And, of course, more invertebrates!
So, here's the mermaid so far. She was giving me a really hard time yesterday. I had a hell of a time finding those values, and they still aren't right. I can see the problems more clearly now that I've slept and surfed on it, though, and I'm in an optimistic mood about getting back to work on it today.
Oddly, her face is nothing like what I set out for. The sketch ended up quite different from the face I had in mind, and this painted face has changed somewhat from the sketch. I like the face, but I'd really like to be able just draw the face I have in my head. Back to doing studies, I guess.

LOCOG Again Making Plans To Scale Back 2012 Olympic Village
Published August 7, 2008
LOCOG officials have agreed to reduce the size of the athletes' village for the London Olympics by a "further 500 apartments to stem rising costs," according to Bond & Pocock of the London TELEGRAPH. The village already has been "scaled back by a third from the 4,200 flats originally planned due to problems in raising private finance" (TELEGRAPH.co.uk, 8/7). LOCOG CEO Paul Deighton yesterday in a presentation to IOC members in Beijing said that the "biggest difference between Beijing and London would be the scale of the venues," as London "will have more temporary facilities." Deighton: "The beauty is in the contrast. The Beijing Games could end up being unique. I'm not sure how many other countries would have the control of resources to be able to put them behind an event like this. I think London is much more likely to be the model for Games in the future." Deighton added that LOCOG has "brought more than 100 people to Beijing to gain 'the battle experience' of the Games" (LONDON TIMES, 8/7). REUTERS' Catherine Bremer notes London has a budget of about US$18.15B for the 2012 Games, "less than half what Beijing has spent, and finding private financing for projects such as the athletes' village has grown harder as the global credit crunch bites" (REUTERS, 8/7).
ENJOY THE RIDE: In Chicago, Kathy Bergen reports Chicago Mayor Richard Daley in his first full day in Beijing yesterday rode on the city's "state-of-the-art subway," which "signaled just how badly he wants to polish Chicago's transit system, with federal help, as part" of the city's bid for the 2016 Olympics (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/7).

Can anyone reccomend a nice place for a lunch in the Burlington area for 4 adults?
Looking for nice atmosphere and great food for a leisure lunch over the holiday season.

We had my a rehearsal dinner at Oliver& Bonacini at Oakville Place in Burlington last year...I could not say enough great things about this place...we were from out of town and had to set everything up from a distance...I was a little worried because it was attached to a mall but everything was beautiful and the meal was superb.
Report Abuse
Oliver & Bonacini at Oakville Place is in Oakville, not Burlington. I recently had an excellent lunch at Spencer's in Burlington which is on Lake Ontario. I am sure there are other excellent restaurants in Burlington that readers can recommend as well.
Report Abuse
Thanks for the info on the Oakville place. There are lots of
places there, and nice to know about one that is recommended.
Spencers could be nice, especially waterfront. Snow, ice and cold still has a beauty of it's own over the lake, right?
Will see if I can get a few more opinions so we can decide. -
Report Abuse
Four of us had lunch recently at Oliver & Bon in the Oakville Place Shopping Centre.
Three of us had a great lunch. The forth, who was the hostess and paid for it all, says, "it was awful. Someone should have been shot. And the calimari was already dead."
Lunch was about two and a half hours, with no sense of us being rushed.
Prices a littlelower than we might have thought.
I had fish and chips (double portion) which I thought was excellent.
About Burlington - I've never been to Spencer's, but I have heard it is excellent.
It turns out that I've never had a need to eat well in Burlington, other than in my friend Jane's house. Eating casually; there's a two fortino's, which make extraordinary pizza, and an IKEA, and Several Swiss Chalets.
But if I was going to eat well, commercially, I'd probably go to The Keg. 3130 South Service Road Burlington, ON L7N 3J3
CHECK IF IT IS OPEN FOR LUNCH. Some Kegs are and some are not, and the rules change in December.
Or Milestones, across from Costco, south of Indigo, north of QEW, on Brant Street.
ABOUT CHAINS: I ghave eaten so many meals in so many restaurants, big and small, chains and owner-chef, owner-host with minimum wage short order cook, etc. etc. that I have come to trust chains (and even O&B had a bad day with one menu item) and doubt one-off restaurants, unless I've talked to some happy eaters.

Pepperwood Bistro is very popular . I've always enjoyed it . It's right on Lakeshore just west of Brant Street

There is also West Plains Bistro that is quite good . Www.westplainsbistro.com
It's a couple of years old and is very popular .
If you are looking for fine dining you could go to Lord Nelson Steak house on Plains Rd

Second the vote for Pepperwood Bistro -although I guess kodi recommended it to me so thats why. They have nice entertainment for the Sunday brunch and lots of menu choices.

Thank you for the comments on West Plains Bistro. That is where the four of us went and we were ipressed from the second
we walked in. !!! Will definately go again, on our next trip
north to Toronto. Never had room, but all deserts are homemade, and boy did they ever look yummy !! Perfect !!
Will definately reccommend to anybody who wonders !
Thanks again,

Job Prospects in IT / Business Systems Analyst - Flooded market ?
Search | SEARCH |
Job Prospects in IT / Business Systems Analyst - Flooded market ?I am considering studying a Bachelor's in Business Information Systems at Uni, aiming probabaly to be a Business Systems Analyst. According to the Aus Gov websites, the employment prospects over the next short to long term are very good, with a high level of vacancies in this field and good pay (1500/wk approx according to the job prospects site ). I was wondering however, is the IT market really flooded ? I have heard for years from multiple sources, including a family member who used to be in IT , that the market is flooded with qualified people. Is this true ? Or is it just specific sections? Would this degree be as beneficial as it looks ? Any information other than the Aus Gov job prospect website would be appreciated, particularly from people working within the field or having studied it. P.S I have a friend finishing up in that degree atm, and he is doing quite well and earning a handsome salary. I was just wondering if this was a rare case Thanks !

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
This may not help, because I am in the United States. But here goes. The market is flooded because using, fixing, uploading/downloading, etc a computer is no longer the mystery it once was. What is still a mystery and therefore lucrative is computer networking and business analysis. I was recently laid off and I read...

Police: Road rage may have sparked deadly shooting at Target store
OKLAHOMA CITY — Police said "road rage" may be to blame for the shooting death of an Oklahoma City man at a metro store parking lot.
Authorities said 29-year-old Jasen Yousif was killed in the Target parking lot near Memorial and Penn. last Friday afternoon.
He was shot after getting out of his car, following an incident with another man on the Kilpatrick Turnpike.
Officials said 57-year-old David Bloebaum also drove to the parking lot and opened fire, killing Yousif.
Police said the two men did not know each other prior to the shooting but had been driving aggressively on the turnpike, with one chasing the other.
"People will get angry sometimes when driving," MSgt. Gary Knight said. "But you certainly don't expect that to end up or lead to an armed confrontation like this."
Officials urge the public to drive to a police or fire station if you're being harassed on the road, or call 911, but never pull over.
"We've had stabbings, shootings, people get into fist fights," Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Betsy Randolph said. "No one is going to pull over and work it out with you and talk and be rational because at the moment that they're doing it, when they have the road rage, they can't be rational."
Yousif's family did not want to talk on camera but said Yousif had a 3-year-old son and was studying to become a doctor.
Bloebaum was booked on a first-degree murder complaint.
Charges are pending the police investigation.

City to vote on proposed 2 percent hike in restaurant tax
by Associated Press
Published: July 9,2013
Tags: City of Brandon, restaurant tax, tax, tourism, tourist
BRANDON — Residents are heading to the polls in Brandon to vote on a 2 percent restaurant tax that would raise the 7 percent sales tax to 9 percent on prepared food and beverages.
If approved, the gross proceeds from the tax will go toward developing tourism and recreation in the city.
The Clarion-Ledger reports Tuesday's voting will take place at City Hall from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Mayor Butch Lee said the tax will be instrumental in "reclaiming downtown." He said he wants to renovate and encourage more commerce to come to the area.
Other cities in Rankin County have assessed the 2 percent tax for several years. Pearl is the most recent city to pass such a referendum eight years ago in 2005.

I don't know which I like more really. That anthemic sound and their sing-along style is done so well on some tracks, but they also work well because they're alongside tracks that aren't like that. It doesn't get stale at all, but still tracks like point/counterpoint are just undeniably fun as hell. It's true of Keasbey Nights as well.
Album Rating: 4.5So yeah, saw these dudes last night and it was one of the most fun shows I've ever been to. Was jumping around and singing along from start to finish (except the new stuff I didn't know, which I was still jumping around to). Everyone there was having a great ass time you could tell too, which was just awesome all around. Encore of point/counterpoint medleyed with keasbey nights followed by the big sleep was just incredible.

You'll find it hanging from the chins of children barely old enough to walk and on Twitter, where it has more followers than dozens of NBA players. You'll find it nodding on commemorative bobbleheads and in pun-laden headlines. Yes, James Harden's beard gets all the attention.
And why not? It speaks to the delightful eccentricity of Harden's story -- the onetime sixth man who got his shot and, as he so often does on the court, took advantage of the opening.

Wells Fargo posts record $4.9 billion profit in Q4 (Video)
- Adam O'Daniel
- Finance Editor- Charlotte Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Wells Fargo & Co.'s record streak continues.
The San Francisco-based bank on Friday reported record-high fourth-quarter net income of $4.9 billion, or 91 cents per common share. The results beat analysts' expectations of 89 cents per share. The lender improved over the same period a year ago by 25%. In the fourth quarter of 2011, the bank reported $3.9 billion in net income.
For the full year in 2012, Wells reports net income of $18 billion, also a record high, up from $15 billion in 2011. That's a 20% increase.
The bank (NYSE:WFC) has reported record income since doubling its size when it bought Charlotte-based Wachovia Corp. for $7 per share in late 2008. The company maintains an East Coast hub in Charlotte and employs about 20,000 people here.
Wells' says its net interest margin — the difference between what it collects on loan payments and what pays on deposits — dipped slightly in the quarter, as deposit growth outpaced loan volume increases. In addition, the bank reported a slight dip in mortgage originations for the first time in several quarters as U.S. homebuying slowed at the end of the year. Wells Fargo is the country's largest mortgage originator.
Still, overall revenue at the bank increased 7% to $21.9 billion in the fourth quarter.
"2012 was an outstanding year for Wells Fargo," Chairman and Chief Executive John Stumpf says in a statement. "We saw the continued benefits of our diversified business model and reported record full year and fourth quarter earnings, robust deposit and solid loan growth, and strong performance across our business units.
"From growing revenue, making strategic acquisitions and achieving efficiency improvements, I am extremely pleased with our 2012 performance," he adds. "We also returned more capital to our shareholders through common stock dividends and common stock repurchases. We are very well positioned for and look forward to 2013, as Wells Fargo continues to work hard to contribute to a growing U.S. economy by doing what we do best: helping customers succeed financially."

Who wants to live better LATER when you can live better NOW?
I don't visit ashrams. I don't have an altar. I am not a quiet person. I say swear words. Sometimes with enthusiasm. The path to inner peace and power does not require perfection. It requires willingness, passion, desire for change. There is no mystery. You don't need to sit Indian style with your Buddhist monk mentor. You don't need to light candles, burn incense and be still for three hours. Peace, Power, Enlightenment. It's all for you.
I can change your life in 30 seconds.
YOU can change your life in 30 seconds.
This is for the person who is ready to drive, drop top, shades on.
Are you ready to break yourself wide open?
Are you ready to connect with your source and your soul?
This is what you will do in the next 30 seconds
You will Take 8 breathes
You will blink 7 times
You will have roughly 25 thoughts
You will shed 174,000 skin cells
You will create 60 million red blood cells
Your blood will travel 4 miles
Your body will produce 100 watts of energy
What else has been done in 30 Seconds?
World records have been broken
Riches have been won
Legends have been born
Babies created
Lives saved
So what can YOU do in 30 seconds or less?
Change your life forever
Who this is for?
The woman that knows something is missing but can't pin point what it is.
The woman with a family, a career, packed planners and multiplying responsibilities
The woman who knows it's time to connect with her source, uncover her identity, and dig deep into her soul for the buried treasure
Who is this for?
It is for the woman still inside you who is passionate and sensual and creative
The woman that wants to feel joy, live with purpose and drink in the wonders of life.
It is for the woman who wants to bathe in her unlimited possibilities.
So who is this not for:
The excuse maker, the skeptic, the nay sayer
The person who isn't ready to take a good look at life, and flip it upside down.
This is not for the woman who has grown comfortable in misery or indecision and isn't willing to leave it behind.
If you come to me, and the tools aren't working, it's because YOU aren't working.
So are you …
A woman who is ready to stop tolerating life and START LIVING?
A woman that is ready to OWN your AWESOME and LIVE your truth?
Are you ready to Create?
Are you ready to become a peace ambassador?
Are you ready to take Control?
Are you ready to unleash your TRUE POWER and inspire the world?
Then walk with me. Let's crush it. Let's shake souls and move mountains. Today!

Constitutions of Matter: Mathematically Modeling the Most Everyday of Physical Phenomena. Martin H. Krieger. 343 pp. University of Chicago Press, 1996. $65.
Philosophical books on mathematical physics tend to be fairly rare these days. This is especially true if they deal with the usual psycho-existential questions such as "What induced the big-bang?" or "What is the absolute meaning of time?" In Martin Krieger's Constitutions of Matter we are dealing with the real, hard stuff: the mathematics within. The whole book advocates the following audacious theory: Mathematical tricks and techniques and reasoning are the true driving forces behind most physical theories, the primary goal of which is to model the all-too-complex world we live in. The more accurate our explanations tend to be, the more predictive they are as well, and the greater is the level of mathematical rigor they require. Deep physics is hidden everywhere in the meanders of the apparently only decorative—but indeed crucial—technical details of most mathematical-physical theories.
To illustrate his point, the author has chosen to concentrate on the questions of constitution and stability of matter from a statistical mechanical point of view. The various chapters of the book discuss famous fundamental papers of statistical physics: Darwin-Fowler's derivation of the probability distribution of states of given energy, Lieb and Lebowitz's mathematical construction of the "constitution of matter,'' Onsager's solution of the two-dimensional Ising model, Yang and Lee's evidence of phase transitions, further mathematical reformulation of the Ising model in terms of fermions by Schultz, Mattis and Lieb, and, finally, Baxter's solutions of integrable lattice models.
With great confidence, Krieger takes us through the labyrinths of these rather technical papers to expose the somewhat hidden ideas and constructions, only to show their deep physical implications. The global outcome is a sort of dictionary that translates each mathematical step into physical ideas. For example, the mathematical tool known as the transfer matrix for a two-dimensional statistical system with short-range interactions is nothing but a means of explicitly building up matter out of local bits and pieces, the short-range interaction being justified by the screening of long-range forces within each piece.
The main difficulty in reading this book is inherent to the field it describes: Most arguments are impossible to follow superficially, and even to get a sense of what is going on requires more than a good knowledge of the general principles. It is unrealistic to think that a reader can directly benefit from reading this book without ever having tried to read the underlying papers or the related textbooks. Rather, the book can be seen as an extremely useful reading companion that establishes connections and clarifies ideas by putting them into a broader perspective.
This book is neither a physics textbook nor a philosophical essay. Its whole point is to advocate mathematical tricks, and it is full of them, including two reprints of long original papers by Lars Onsager. To a nonexpert eye this will at best fill a gap: Finally all this mathematical ugliness will have a sense of utility. To physicists, this should definitely shed some light on the hard work of a few of their mathematically oriented colleagues. To the latter, this book is a comforting reassurance, if they nurtured any doubts, that this hard work is going to pay off someday.
At a time when dramatic budget cuts affect fundamental research in physics, and all the more so poor relatives such as mathematical physics, Krieger's book gives us a good opportunity to stop and look at what has been accomplished so far. We may realize how modern mathematics is slowly reshaping physics and vice versa, and how crucial the interplay between these two fields is going to be in the years to come.
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Math? Whoever is, missed the whole point.—Philippe R. Di Francesco, Mathematics, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

A Heterogeneous Linux/Windows 95 Home Network
My Linux server serrano has a tape drive, so I back up all files on my network to tape. To back up the files on the Windows 95 machine ancho, I first use Samba and a Perl script in which I specify a file called MANIFEST-SMB that contains all directories and files on ancho to be backed up. Then I use the Perl script shown in Listing 5. In that script, ****** is my Samba password to connect to C-Ancho. The manifest file can contain blank lines and comments—the first line in the while loop deals with this. It backs up files on ancho specified in MANIFEST-SMB into my Linux machine's /tmp directory. Then I run another script to back up to tape.
This network has provided me with a stable and efficient home work environment for more than a year.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Former Jaguar Fred Taylor a top storyline
By Mike Reiss
With the Patriots preparing to face the Jaguars, veteran running back
Fred Taylor
was a topic of discussion Tuesday.
"This weekend, we were talking a little bit and I asked him if he was going to play and didn't get a response back," Jaguars running back
Maurice Jones-Drew
said Tuesday on a conference call. "I kind of figured it was a 'yeah.'"
Jones-Drew said it will be exciting to be on the opposite side of the field from Taylor. He added that Taylor has molded him into the player he is, and the two still work out together in the offseason.
"It's going to be real emotional, because there are 10 or 12 of us who Fred kind of raised into the league," Jones-Drew said. "When I got here, Fred came to me with open arms. He said, 'I'm willing to teach you if you're willing to learn and listen.' To hear one of the best players at the position say something like that, it kind of turned our relationship into what it is now."

In the accompanying drawings the letter a denotes one of the shear blades having integralwith or rigidly secured to the rear end of the blade a stem Z). which projects at right angles to the blade. from point a to the heel a, is straight, or substantially so, so as to present no obstacle to the sliding movement of any material being out along the blade. The complementary blade 0 has a tubular shank d projectinglaterally from the rear end of the blade and having the opening through the shank of a size to enable it to fit snugly upon the cylindrical stem of the other blade with the adjacent faces of the two blades arranged to slide closely in contact'with each other so that the edges of the blades will give The edge of this blade a shearing cut when one blade is moved upon the other in proper direction. The handle f is curved to proper shape and has in the broadened head portion a trans verse opening f which enables it to fit snugly upon the stemb of the blade to. On the sides of the head are projecting lugs g, g, which are adapted to engage the sockets 0, 0 in the end of the tubular hub of the blade 0 so that when a swinging movement is imparted to the handle it will be communicated to the blade and cause the two parts, handle f and the blade 0, to move together. A similar handle his provided with an opening atone end which enables it to fit upon the outer end of the stem 12 and interengagingparts h and I) lock the handle h and the blade 0. together so that they operate as one portion. A nut fitted upon the threaded outer end of the stem b serves to hold the several parts of the shears together. The result of this construction and arrangement of the several parts is that the jaws and handle are offset from each other by a pivot of convenient length and by setting the handles to one side of the blade in this manner'a free way is left for the use of the shears. In prior forms of shears in which the two parts, handle and blade, are practically in one line or plane the handle interferes with the proper use of the shears so as to cause them to rock over to one side in cutting a sheet of metal or like hard material, or else the substance of the sheet is bent and twisted so as to avoid. contact with the handle or a projecting part back of the blade. 'As already stated, the edge of the outer blade is straight from point to heel and as the handle is offset it presents no obstruction to the free movement of the shears along the sheet of material so that the out being made by the shearing action of the blades can be easily and rapidly followed up by a forward movement .of the shears along the line of out. These two blades are preferably held open by the action of the springs 70, k, which are fas tened to the handle at one end and engage at their other ends so that a closing movementof the handles compresses thesprings, and the latter by their reaction when the pressure is removed open the handles and the blade. This precise construction of parts is not material, nor is the construction of the interengaging parts by which the handles and blades are connected together material, as other springs may be used and other forms of connecting means employed without departing from my invention,the main feature of which resides in the offsetting of blades and handles by the construction and relative combination of the parts as described, and which also secures a freeway for the passage of material along the edge of the outer blade for its entire length. I claim as my invention' 1. In combination in a pair of shears, a blade, a tubular shank projecting late-rally therefrom, a complementary blade, a stem extending laterally therefrom and through the shank, handles secured to the end of said shank and stem respectively the said :st-em forming the pivot, all substantially as described. 2. In combination in a pair of shears, a blade, a tubular shank projecting laterally therefrom, a complementary blade, a stem exten ding-laterally therefrom th rough the shank and handles secured to the ends of the shank and stem respectively by iznterengaging lugs and sockets, all substantially as described. 3. In combination in a pair of shears, a blade, a tubular shank projecting laterally from the rear end of said blade, a complementary blade having a stem extending laterally from its rear end and within the-shank, lever handles secured to the outer end of said shank and stem respectively, the latter forming the pivot, all substantiallyas described. 4. In combination in a pair of shears, a blade, a tubular shank extending laterally from its rear end, another blade having a stem extending through the shank and projecting beyond the end thereof, a lever handle mounted upon the stem and in engagement with the end of the shank, a handle secured to said stem, and a nut fitting the end of the stem, " all substantially as described. 5. In combination in a pair ofshearsfl; blade, a tubular shank extending latemfly from its rear end, another blade straight from point to heel along its entire length whereby a free way is provided and 'havinglastem ex"- tending through the shank of the opposite blade and projecting beyond the end thereof, a handle mounted upon the stem and in '0!- gagement with the aforesaid shank, another lever handle mounted upon the stem and secu red thereto, andza nut secured to theouter end of the stem, all substantiallyas "described.
