This bandwagon is getting more crowded by the minute :D
and the Daily Dime on ESPN.
What bball/media gods did we sacrifice Sean May to?
I think in the past 2 weeks we have had more coverage than the whole rest of the year combined...
On the front page of ESPN/NBA home page:
Making noise baby!
I noticed that pole. 40% think we're a playoff team? That's incredible!
Monday was a real nice game. The previous 3 were a little rough, but we're nowhere near out of this race for the playoffs.
Watch as the Bandwagon overflows...
i dont mind the bandwagon..i want the team to stay in charlotte
As long as we have more people in the arena like the Hornets did, and MJ can buy the team, I'll be happy. I just wish theyd find something besides LB to write about...like Ray or DJ or GW...

Javier Hernandez: Why Manchester United Would Be Crazy to Sell Him
By Max Towle ,
It was fitting that Javier Hernandez etched his name onto the scoresheet in Manchester United's 2-1 win over Swansea City on Sunday.
Wayne Rooney's absence from the matchday squad threatened to overshadow Sir Alex Ferguson's final game at Old Trafford, with the forward having handed in a transfer request (via ManUtd.com).
Unlike Rooney, Hernandez wants to play for Manchester United—he wants to stay and fight for his place in the team.
The English forward's contributions to the club are vast, but no player is bigger than the crest—no player is bigger than the club.
If he wants to leave Old Trafford, perhaps it would be in the best interest of everyone if he was granted that wish.
Javier Hernandez, on the other hand, must not be sold.
Here are some reasons why.
Javier Hernandez is a model professional and a dedicated player.
Last year, Robin van Persie said (via The Sun): "I love Chicharito's enthusiasm. I love how he plays and trains and does his work off the pitch after training."
"A couple of weeks ago he wasn't playing as much, but he was in the gym every day doing extra work and that sets a big example for everyone."
The Dutchman was speaking in December, but Hernandez remained a marginalised player through this year.
He has been played little, starting only eight games in the Premier League—the same number as Anderson and Paul Scholes.
In an interview with The Sun last month, Hernandez said (via Daily Mail): "It is frustrating. All the players in the world want to start every single game, every week. Of course any player wants that."
"I'm happy to be at this club but I'd love more games. My attitude is that even when the gaffer wants me to be on the bench I'm going to do my best."
After Sir Alex Ferguson announced his retirement at the end of the season, Hernandez said (via The Sun): "When I retire it will be satisfying to say that I was one of Alex Ferguson's boys."
In an increasingly money-driven game, the Mexican forward's words are refreshing. His loyalty to the club must be rewarded.
Some in the footballing world have talked about Javier Hernandez having had a difficult season at Old Trafford, but is this the case?
He has scored 17 goals in all competitions, five more than last term and only three less than his standout debut campaign.
This is made all the more impressive with him having made more appearances off the bench in the Premier League than in the starting XI.
His strike rate in the 2010/11 season was 0.44. This season, it's 0.49. He has scored nine goals in the last three Champions League campaigns.
His goal against Swansea on Sunday was a fitting reminder of how deadly he can be in the penalty area.
Not only does he create space for himself in the box, his sharp movements do the same for his teammates.
He is equally adept in the air as he is with the ball at his feet.
He remains one of the most trustworthy forwards in the game.
Despite his lack of playing time, when he has featured, Javier Hernandez has made small, but significant strides forward in his game.
Most notable is the development in his physicality.
Unlike in his debut campaign, when defenders took every opportunity to barge him off the ball, he is now unafraid to mix it with the Robert Huths of the league.
His upper-body strength has improved, as has his ability to compete for 50-50 chances in the air. The Old Trafford training staff must be commended for this.
Hernandez's control and distribution has also developed. He was involved in several of the Red Devils' best passing sequences on Sunday, linking with Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa.
These types of performances only beg the question: How good can he be with a regular run of games in the first team?
He is 24 years of age, and approaching the peak of his playing abilities.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is one of the greatest legends in Manchester United history.
The comparisons between Javier Hernandez and Solskjaer are remarkable—both are clinical forwards, both are dedicated professionals, and both have the reputation of being a super-sub.
This is a dangerous tag for a player to have—it might suggest that the player's manager would be better served leaving him on the bench.
Javier Hernandez is indeed a threat coming on late in games, but he is also an impact player for the full 90 minutes.
United fans will never forget his goal after 36 seconds in a crucial game against Chelsea in 2011.
His constant harrying pushes opposition defences back up the pitch, and often forces them into mistakes.
He is exactly the kind of hard-working player that David Moyes should embrace next season.
The Scottish manager has never been one to suffer fools gladly. Luckily for him, there are few of these at Old Trafford.
What do you think the future holds for Javier Hernandez?

Your veterinarian will treat the underlying cause of the ptyalism, once it has been effectively diagnosed. Although it is generally not necessary, your doctor may also treat the outward symptoms to reduce the flow of saliva. Nutritional supplements may be recommended if your cat has been suffering from ptyalism for any length of time and has not been able to eat properly.
Depending on the underlying cause, your veterinarian will want to monitor your cat as often as necessary to make certain that the treatment plan is effective.

The Outside Corner:
After the conclusion of last night's Super Bowl between the Ravens and 49ers (which by the way, made me a very happy man), the tide turned from football season...to baseball season. In one short week, pitchers and catchers will be reporting in Florida and Arizona for Spring Training, and you'll have more baseball coverage than you know what to do with. And quite frankly, it couldn't come any sooner...we're running out of things to write about this winter!
Over the weekend, we looked at Scott Rolen's possible return, Alex Rodriguez getting personally injected with PEDs by Anthony Bosch (if you really needed to hear any more about *that* story), minor league coach Phillip Wellman in a Super Bowl commercial, and the retirement of Kevin Millwood.
Today, Scott has a look at the westward shift in baseball's dominant teams, and who knows what else is going to happen today?
Enjoy your offseason, everyone.

I posted a few days ago stressing about being 41 weeks. Last night started having contractions and wasn't sure it was the real thing since so many Braxton hicks lately. But after an hour and increasing intensity and my water breaking was convinced and called the midwife. She and her assistant came around one. Contractions were unbearable and felt pushy but was only 5 cm. so I had to pant through about 8 contractions to keep from pushing. Finally was complete and could push. My girls came in to see the baby be born--my 5 year old who had planned to be there and my almost 3 year old who is squeamish but got caught up inthe excitement and ended up thrilled. Ended up having a baby boy ( we has waited to find out). He was 10 lbs, 3 oz, our biggest by 2 lbs. And amazingly had no tears! Totally credit my midwife who actively coached on when to push and when to slow down-- holding back was the hardest most unnatural thing I have ever done! But we feel great today. I had pretty convinced myself that a hospital induction was inevitable and am so pleased that things worked put. Even though I did not sleep last night I was too wired to really nap today. Time to try to settle down!

Product Description
How do you respond when you hear from your wife, "Not tonight, honey?" Your response may range from confusion and hurt to impatience and anger. Whether you're hearing the words for the first time or are beginning to think you'll never hear any others, you struggle with how to respond. You want to be a good husband, but you also want her to be a good wife!
Rob Green walks through the various ways men respond to their wives' sexual rejection and calls husbands back to Christ's foundational call to love their wives as Christ loves the church. By reminding men that sexual intimacy is an expression of love that finds its context in a marriage built on safely and security, he offers helpful instruction on how to love well and continue to build relationship.

By: ABC9 firstname.lastname@example.com
Sioux City, IA (ABC9 News) - A judge has sentenced Fernando Jaimes-Martinez to 30 years of prison time following the shooting death of a Sioux City woman.
Jaimes-Martinez, 35, was on trial for the shooting death of Karla Gonzalez-Garcia dating back to September of 2012. Jaimes-Martinez is accused of shooting into a crowd during an altercation with a group of people at a neighboring house on Villa Ave.
The prosecution in the case argued that Jaimes-Martinez did not need to get the gun and fire into the crowd. They also pointed out the he lied to police during initial interrogations about his involvement in the shooting.
The defense admitted he fired the weapon, but argued he feared for the safety of his family causing him to fire the weapon.
In November a jury found Jaimes-Martinez guilty of voluntary manslaughter and intimidations with a dangerous weapon. That is a lesser charge than what Jaimes-Martinez stood trial for, first degree murder. He also plead guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm.
All three charges carry a 15 year sentence, but Woodbury County Judge Jeffrey Poulson chose to run the manslaughter and intimidation charges concurrently, meaning they run at the same time. Add on the 15 years for felon in possession of a firearm and his total jail time comes to 30 years.
The judge also ordered $150,000 restitution for the Gonzalez' estate.

The President's Circle is guided by a team of volunteers who are committed to developing a culture of philanthropy at Linfield College. These individuals promote giving with the goal of expanding the membership in the President's Circle and developing the resources that will advance Linfield's mission. These leaders serve as ambassadors for the college and are the hosts for the annual President's Circle dinner.
Pete Miller '69 was motivated to volunteer on the President's Circle Leadership Council out of appreciation for Linfield's long connection with his family. Pete spent the first five years of his life on College Avenue, and both of his parents as well as two aunts are Linfield alums. "I hope to give back to Linfield College for all of its contributions to my family, as well as my own personal and professional growth," Miller said.
Miller graduated with a bachelor's degree in history and went on to a career in education. He taught in McMinnville, as well as overseas for the Department of Defense, and served as principal at schools in Carlton and Sherwood before retiring in 2009.
Miller hopes to increase the size of Linfield's endowment, and to help set Linfield apart from other schools that are struggling. "The efforts of volunteers like me will assist in growing and maintaining Linfield as one of the best colleges in the country," Miller said.
Dave Dillon '89 graduated with a B.A. in political science and economics. He is currently the executive vice president for the Oregon Farm Bureau. Dillon looks back fondly on his time at Linfield and is motivated to help others share his positive experience.
"Linfield College changed my life, gave me opportunities I wouldn't have had anywhere else," Dillon said. "There were a lot of people that put in a lot of work to make my experience what it was; I want to do the same for others."
While at Linfield his junior year, Dillon served as a student- trustee. After graduating he went on to serve on the Alumni Association Board for six years, ultimately becoming a member of the Board of Trustees in 1996. While thankful for his opportunities at Linfield, Dillon also realizes the importance of giving back.
"I know how little of the cost to educate me, I actually paid" said Dillon. Now a member of the President's Circle, Dillon heeds the advice of former Linfield president Charlie Walker who on graduation day said to him, "I look forward to you supporting the college from this day forward. If the college is successful it will be a reflection on you."
Dave and his wife Anastacia (Sims) '89 reside in Tigard, Oregon with their two children.
Ardis Ferguson '67 followed in the footsteps of her sister, Judy (Erikson) McCormick '61, when she chose to attend Linfield. After graduating, Ardis served as a flight attendant with United Airlines until her retirement in 2003.
Ferguson and her husband Bob '65, have remained active in college alumni activities. "We love the people here and would like to help students choose their walk in life," she said.
Ferguson has big plans for the Leadership Team. She hopes to get all alumni to make at least a modest gift annually to the school.
"We need to set the examples for new graduates in giving time and money to keep Linfield successful," said Ferguson, who believes that it is important for Linfield alums to take leadership roles for the benefit of the college.
Ferguson supports the Wildcat football team and wants to encourage students to study or live abroad.
Bob Ferguson '65 graduated from Linfield with a bachelor's degree in psychology. While at Linfield, he led the Wildcat football team to the NAIA national championship and is now a member of the Linfield Athletics Hall of Fame.
In addition to leading the Wildcats to three Northwest Conference championships, he was a member of Theta Chi fraternity, the speech and debate team and was a senior men's honorary president of the Cardinal Circle, a club comprised of varsity letter winners of all sports.
Following graduation, he became a captain in the U.S. Marine Corps, earning a Purple Heart in Vietnam as a photo reconnaissance navigator. He discovered his career niche after founding Reps Northwest, an agency representing sporting goods and advertising suppliers.
At 61, Ferguson earned a master's degree in teaching and became a published author. In his recent memoir, "Some Days Chicken, Some Days Feathers," he reflects on his days at Linfield and in Vietnam.
Now retired, Ferguson hopes that by serving on the Leadership Team he can give back to Linfield.
"It is my dream that Linfield will educate the leaders of the next generation," said Ferguson. "It is important to continue the academic and athletic excellence which creates a well rounded student."
He believes that it is important for alumni to take leadership roles to keep this tradition alive.
John Hubbard '62, past chair, is proud to be a volunteer member of the President's Circle Leadership Team for many reasons, including that he holds Linfield to be an essential part of his family's development.
"We received a quality education, were taught how to think and were well trained for the workforce," said Hubbard, who earned a degree in business. "Linfield was also the catalyst for bringing Judy Jandrey '63 and me together as a couple."
Looking back on his years as a student, Hubbard is thankful for all the people who helped him complete his education. He especially appreciates the efforts of his then-employer, Bill Rutherford, Sr., owner of the Rutherford Variety Store, who aided Hubbard with financial support during his senior year.
With Linfield degree in hand, Hubbard was hired by John Deere, where he worked for 30 years. After retiring in 1992, he earned an M. Div. from San Francisco Theological Seminary and later obtained his doctorate in ministry. Currently, he is a chaplain and the assistant director of pastoral care at Providence Hospital in Portland.
Recognizing the difference Linfield can make in an individual's future, Hubbard explains the importance of maintaining such an institution.
"Giving and volunteering is the only way the product, Linfield, will be able to continue. It is important to build an endowment," said Hubbard. "If you don't, sometime down the road, the Linfield that we know won't be here."
Hubbard believes it is important for people to support their college and focus on helping in specific ways. "I know what kind of heritage we want to leave," says Hubbard, "that of a stronger Linfield."
Judy (Jandrey) Hubbard '63 joined the President's Circle Leadership Team in 2008. Hubbard attended Linfield as a pre-nursing student before graduating from St. Francis Memorial School of Nursing in San Francisco in 1964. Her positive experience at Linfield motivated her to join the Leadership Team.
Hubbard believes in supporting the causes of organizations in which she believes. "I appreciate the opportunity to work with my husband (John '62) on a committee for which we both feel a common bond.""I have always felt a loyalty to Linfield due to the good education that I received in preparing me for the profession of nursing and because of the lifelong friendships made during the two years at Linfield," she said. She is currently the Parish Nurse for the Presbyterian Urban Network in Portland.
Her overall objectives are to renew other former students' loyalty to Linfield, to encourage that loyalty to translate into financial support of the college and to increase communication between the alumni and the current college teaching staff, the administration and the students.
Gilan M. Menegat '80 graduated from Linfield with a B.A. in history. Her vision for the Leadership Team is to promote Linfield's mission while serving to advance the college through new ideas and sound guidance. "I am interested in giving back to the institution, which was so generous to me," she said.
Her commitment to education led her to become a high school social science and language arts teacher and later, a school district central office administrator overseeing curriculum, instruction and professional development. Menegat went onto receive a Master's degree, administrative licensure, and an Ed.D. in educational leadership from Lewis and Clark. She is currently a contract researcher and consultant.
Menegat looks back on her years at Linfield with appreciation. "Linfield provided me the skills to pursue a career in education, and I credit my time there as one of the experiences that led to my success. As a result, I have always felt a deep commitment to the college," she said.
Menegat believes Linfield offers its students a quality education that blends academic rigor and community support. "I believe in the experience Linfield provides and am interested in ensuring its programs are available to students long into the future," she said.
Eric Nichols '81 came to Linfield to play football and attend small classes with great professors. "It is one of the best decisions I have ever made," he said.
Nichols is the vice president of information technology at Sublimity Insurance Company. He hopes to contribute to Linfield's success as a member of the President's Circle Leadership Team.
"I want to help other alumni see the great work Linfield is doing so that they will want to give back to and support the college so it can continue to be an outstanding community of learning," Nichols said.
Nichols feels it is important for alumni to take leadership roles for the college. "We should work to make the 'Linfield Experience' available for current and future students," Nichols said.
Nichols hopes that Linfield will continue to make the college affordable for students, expand programs and opportunities on campus and around the world, retain excellent and caring professors and staff, and maintain and upgrade classrooms and campus grounds.
Robin (Burmeister) Nichols '82 wanted to attend a college with ties to the American Baptist churches. She found the perfect fit at Linfield. "I knew it was where I wanted to be," she said.
Nichols graduated and pursued her career as a CPA with Boldt, Carlisle & Smith, LLC. She is excited to be a part of the President's Circle Leadership Team.
"I want to encourage others to contribute to Linfield so that students can continue to enjoy the Linfield experience," Nichols said.
Nichols believes alumni leaders are crucial to the school's success. "It is important to give to the college that was so influential in shaping who I am," she said. She hopes that with her role on the leadership team, she will be active in gaining more alumni financial support.
Nichols said her dream for Linfield is "to continue to be one of the finest liberal arts colleges for generations of students to experience."
Jeff Owens '79, who earned a business degree from Linfield, is a founding member of the President's Circle Leadership Team, having served since 2003. "It is important to give back, especially to organizations that have a dramatic impact on your life."
Jeff made lifelong friendships during his student years, and said it's important to remember those who helped him become the individual he is today. He credits Coach Ad Rutschman '54 for being a lifelong mentor and providing the best classroom at Linfield College. "Ad taught all of us discipline, a positive attitude and how to handle adversity."
Jeff volunteers for the college to help assure that the Linfield experience will be available for future generations of Linfield students. "I know my son Jon '06 had a similar experience as I see in him the same work ethic and focus," he said.
Owens is the President of the Business Planning Group in Clackamas Oregon.
Jon Owens '06 joined the President's Circle Leadership Team in 2008. Jon joins his father Jeff Owens '79 in continuing a long family tradition of service to Linfield.
Owens graduated from Linfield with a B.S. in Business and went to Wells Fargo for a few years working as a Credit Manager and Mortgage Consultant. In the last year, Jon has completed the required Insurance and Securities licensing exams (Life/Health, Series 7, 63 and 65), and has joined The Business Planning Group. Jon is excited to be working side by side with his father and enjoys the business that he began building over thirty years ago.
Jon is excited about joining the leadership team and is enthusiastic about the possibilities. He will be pleased to do whatever he can to help LC. It is important to Owens that others will have access to the same experiences he did through Greek Life, Studying Abroad, Athletics and Club Sports.
Justin Samples '05 chose to study finance at Linfield because of the college's academic, cultural and social reputation. As a student he was active in Theta Chi fraternity and was a member of the football team.
Samples joined the Leadership Team in an effort to give back to the institution that gave him so much. He hopes to encourage other alumni to support the institution and to take leadership roles in the college community.
Samples believes that alumni have a unique opportunity to play key roles as leaders in the college community. "As alumni, we have seen the areas where Linfield is great, as well as the areas of opportunity," he said.
With his involvement on the Leadership Team, Samples will work to encourage more alumni to give back to Linfield and ultimately help current students from all backgrounds further their education and personal development.
Samples' dream for his alma mater is for it to continue to be one of the top private colleges on the West Coast that provides students with a wide array of experiences.
Samples, a branch manager for Ameriprise Financial, competes in triathalons and Ironman competitions.
Megan (Busse) Samples '05 selected Linfield College to study international business, mathematics, and French. "Combining a study abroad program that was second to none and an incredible financial aid package, it was the perfect fit for me," Samples said. She currently works as the Branded Program Manager for the Western United States Agricultural Trade Association.
Samples joined the Leadership Team to give back to the institution that helped shape who she is today. "Knowing that there were those who served before me and gave before me is my motivating factor. It is a legacy to continue," She added she believes it is important for alumni to take leadership roles in order to give back and help maintain the legacy for future generations.
"I want to see an increasing number of alumni give at the President's Circle level, get involved, promote positive change and continue to support our alma mater," said Samples.
Samples hopes her contribution will help students enjoy the Linfield experience. She believes alumni need to be involved to ensure Linfield's continued success in educating future leaders.
Robert (Bob) Stewart '66 has served on the President's Circle Leadership team since 2007. As a volunteer member, he enjoys the support he provides and feels appreciated as a donor.
Stewart grew up in Madras where Henry Lever, long time Linfield coach and athletic director, also lived. With Lever's encouragement, Stewart played football at Linfield and graduated with a B.S. in physical education and earned a Masters in Education in 1969. He went on to a successful coaching career and served as mayor of Newberg for two terms.
Stewart and the entire 1965 Linfield College football team were inducted into the school's Athletic Hall of Fame in 2010. "Linfield has had 55 winning seasons since 1956 and I'm proud to be a part of that winning tradition," Stewart said. "It was a great experience to be a part of a small school. I have been pretty involved at Linfield College. It's a great school."
Stewart looks back on his Linfield years fondly, recounting the many benefits he achieved. Not only did he earn an exceptional education, but he also met his wife, Mary '66. Keeping Linfield in the family, Stewart's daughter, Kendall, graduated in 1999 and her husband Gabe Doebler is a 2000 graduate. During Kendal's years as a student she enjoyed her experiences and thrived in the small class atmosphere.
Staying connected to Linfield and his classmates is an act Stewart values and practices. Stewart remains close with his football teammates and his Theta Chi Fraternity brothers. "My friends that went to larger universities only have a hand full of friends from college but having attended Linfield, we all stay in touch," he said.
Through his leadership with the President's Circle, he contributes to the strength of Linfield's programs and student support.
"Linfield is a small college that reaches out and touches students' lives and helps them to become adults," said Stewart.
His hope is that more individuals will help will help Linfield to remain strong for at least another 150 years. "This is an institution where students can receive an excellent education while building life-long relationships," he added.

Nov 19, 2012I had the pleasure of attending an event in the recently renovated grand ballroom. This venue is exquisite and stunning. Its lit in blues, purples, and pinks, and they spared no expense on scrumptious gourmet food. The staff was friendly and helpful, and I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a luxury experience.

They've just remodeled their ballroom. It's a lovely room, perfect for banquets, or anything up your sleeve. The hotel isn't too shabby either. Very upscale and posh - with reasonable prices. This is a destination and a place to let loose.
- Intercontinental Los Angeles Century CityCalvin ChengSep 15, 2012
I've had a retreat here, and I have to say that the food and service here is pretty spectacular. The decor of this place is old fashioned and sophisticated. I think they could do with a bigger grass courtyard in the back, but it is very pleasant as it is.

- Intercontinental Los Angeles Century CityMichael ChiuMember ofLocal CultureLuxury TravelersNightlife LoversFirst to ReviewJul 04, 2012
So one of my companies recently moved over to the Miracle Mile from Downtown LA, so tried my chances with Priceline. Before, in downtown LA, it was pretty easy to find $65-$70/night at hotels like the Millennium Biltmore, Marriott, and Westin Bonnaventure. Outside of that, everything seems to be a lot more expensive. I ended up with the InterContinental for a $120 bid in Beverly Hills on the first shot. I wonder if I could have gone down a little further? On the other hand, this was less than 24 hours of check in.
For this trip, I was doing some manual labor, so I dressed appropriately: T-shirt, jeans, sneakers. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that this probably wasn't appropriate for the InterContinental, and I didn't even bother to pack any other clothes besides the jeans. I did have a pair of Sanuk shoe/slippers though. Everyone else in the bar and lobby were pretty much wearing business attire. At least I was one of a kind.
I spent 12 hours straight in the hotel. Checked in in the early evening, didn't feel like going out, so had dinner at the hotel bar, went back to my room, worked some more, slept, and checked out. I didn't really get a chance to experience the service of the hotel, but I could tell that there is a focus on service.
Since I was cleaning out a storage space, I had a few more boxes to lug home than I arrived with, so I did have to ask for some assistance to bring it up and down for me. It was surprising to me how quickly this was done. In any other hotel I have been to, after checking-in, I'd usually wait at least 30 minutes before it got to me. Here, it was up about 5 minutes after I arrived into my room. The same with when I was ready to check-out. I called, and 5 minutes later, someone was at the door.
For the valet, my car was out in about 5 minutes as well. Never had this fast of service before with any hotel, and especially not in LA.
The highlights: Friendly and courteous staff that really personalize to you. Ultra-fast service.
The lowlights: It's in Century City. Not much around unless you're doing business with Fox, MGM, etc., and besides the Westfield Mall and a few other hotels, not much to go to within walking distance (unless you really want to walk all the way down to Santa Monica Blvd. to visit the run-down strip malls.)
This would be a 4-star review for me, but because of the extra fast service and attention I got it, I feel that it deserves that extra star.

Some Simple AdviceBizzarely, as if the universe just went 'okay people - ask now!' Just in one day today ive has so many pm's from various boards and whatnot from young / new artists asking me about what the secret is, how do I get better, what can i do, or i wish i could make stuff like you.My advice is actually pretty simple. I gaurantee if you do this repeatedly everything else will take care of itself.Step 1: Make some time for making art.Step 2: Get everything prepared before hand, drinks, snacks, music - whatever you need to see you through the next couple of hours for your personal art jam.Step 3: Unplug your internet.Step 4: Make art.I think too many people, especially young artists trying to find their way are looking too hard for something that doesnt even exist. Theres no secret formula, no awesome serum to drink. Just sit down and make art, and keep doing that over and over and over.Free yourself of burden and distraction for that hour or couple of hours and just do it. Thats all it i
How to Become a Better Artist in 1 minuteAlright. I've wanted to do this for a while but never really had the balls. (huur. balls. XP just thought Id get it out before everybody else and their mother's uncle's monkey did).Chances are you're here for one of a few reasons:1) You were attracted by the title2) You're here to prove me wrong3) A combination of the above4) You're an idiotWell, in all honestly, I can assure you, you WILL be a better artist after you read this article.Now, before I get started, I want to explain the purpose of this article. Its not a tutorial, its not me telling you what to do, its not 'OMG! I CAN HAZZZ FREE SKILLLZZZZZ?!?!?!!11one!!!' no no and NO! I suppose you could call it some suggestions. When ever I ask people 'how do you get so good?!' or 'do you have any tips??' All I ever really get is ' practice' ' practice' 'FFFFFFF PRACTICE NOOB!' But fact is, that isn't all there is to it. So what I'm hoping to do is go
Im a 3d Character Artist, why do i need 2D skills?I was asked this a couple of times recently from students, thought i would share my thoughts here with you guys n girls.My answer consists of 2 things:1. Because 2d helps to rapidly build a visual library of self-knowledge in your brain, which ultimately through focus and repetition translates into 'artistic instinct'.2. Because 2d is much faster to iterate with, enabling more rapid development of 'artistic instinct'.Have you ever noticed when watching a master artist at work, that the subject seems to come alive so quickly, or that meaningful lines, shapes or silhouettes jump out right away, and then think:'They seem to know exactly what shapes to put where, how to nail the composition so quickly, how to draw everything perfectly, without even thinking about it!!'This is artistic instinct.What you are watching is an artist call upon their whole lives worth of visual library development and self-knowledge, expressed using their 'artistic instinct' in the form of the subject.The

My family loves this recipe, and I make it every year to accompany our Thanksgiving dinner. It tastes crisper and fresher than traditional green bean casserole. Contrary to the recipe, I don't cook the frozen green beans. I stir the package into the warm ingredients while the beans are still frozen, which I think adds to a crisper, fresher taste.

Two new tracks from B&JO. The first one, Prone, is probably the most melodic release from the duo to date. The latter, called simply Dun Dun, is similar to their previous releases - darker house which is more suitable for the dancefloor.

Dealing with label switching in mixture models under genuine multimodality
The fitting of finite mixture models is an ill-defined estimation problem, as completely different parameterizations can induce similar mixture distributions. This leads to multiple modes in the likelihood, which is a problem for frequentist maximum likelihood estimation, and complicates statistical inference of Markov chain Monte Carlo draws in Bayesian estimation. For the analysis of the posterior density of these draws, a suitable separation into different modes is desirable. In addition, a unique labelling of the component specific estimates is necessary to solve the label switching problem. This paper presents and compares two approaches to achieve these goals: relabelling under multimodality and constrained clustering. The algorithmic details are discussed, and their application is demonstrated on artificial and real-world data.Download Info

An optional mobile phone preparation is available to enable a Bluetooth® connection for those mobile phones that only support the Handsfree Profile (HFP).* With HFP, the CDR audio system, CDR Plus or PCM acts as a hands-free system and the mobile phone can remain tucked away. The CDR audio system, CDR Plus and PCM are able to control all the basic functions of the mobile phone. The GSM connection is established through the aerial of the mobile phone.
* Mobile phone preparation or telephone module in HFP mode: the use of a mobile phone inside a car may cause an increase in the interior electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount the mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected up to the external aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). For information about the availability of a cradle for your mobile phone, please contact your Porsche Centre. The use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth® SAP connection or with inserted SIM card prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car's external aerial is ever used.

In Peace, Love & Misunderstanding, Olsen portrayed the daughter of actress Jane Fonda's character.
Olsen appeared in two films in 2012: Red Lights (with Robert De Niro) and Liberal Arts (with Josh Radnor and Zac Efron). The following year,
she co-starred with Dakota Fanning in the drama Very Good Girls and appeared alongside Daniel Radcliffe in Kill Your Darlings.
"I've been training in theater and dance since I was a kid, so being in front of a camera was really the most frightening thing," Olsen said of her early acting career, adding that she looks forward to continuing her on-screen work for the forseeable future. "I hope I will be able to do stage and film work—I really love it all."

Without a doubt, the roles that women have taken on throughout the history of film has evolved dramatically. Film actresses of the Golden Age of Hollywood fought tooth and nail to attain the same respect as their male counterparts. And slowly, over time, we've seen women take on powerful and complex lead roles in blockbusters, comedies, dramas and everything in between, thanks to the work of leading ladies like Hattie McDaniel, Audrey Hepburn and Ava Gardner. Browse through the women who have changed film history.

A Scout leader is entitled to wear the Trained leader emblem when he or she has completed some basic but important training courses.
A direct contact Scout leader is considered fully trained and entitled to wear the Trained leader emblem when he or she has completed the following training courses and the specific training for the position.
Fast Start Training. Fast Start training is the first step for all new leaders and should be taken immediately after they register and before they meet with any youth members. New leaders choose the Fast Start they need to take: Cub Scout Leader, Boy Scout Leader, Varsity Scout Leader, or Venturing Crew Leader. All Fast Start courses are available on DVD, or they can be completed through the Online Learning Center. (If you are new to Scouting, you will be asked to create an account.)
Youth Protection Training. Youth Protection training is required for all leaders who have direct contact with youth. At all times, youth safety is the number one priority. At the same time, adults need to know the rules for keeping themselves safe, too. Comprehensive Youth Protection training teaches all the do's and don'ts of working with youth. The training is offered through the Online Learning Center, or it may be taken as part of an district or council training course.
This is Scouting. This Is Scouting is a new online training session that replaces New Leader Essentials. It picks up when Fast Start leaves off with six modules of training: The Mission of Scouting, Programs for All ages, Scouting Is Fun, Scouting in the Community, Keeping Our Youth Safe, and Scouting's Legacy. The training takes about an hour to complete and can be found on www.scouting.org.
