Sometimes in war there 'is' a substitute for victory
By GIAN P. GENTILE
10/03/2012 17:39
America thinks the only way in Afghanistan is armed nation buidling, says US Colonel.
Photo: Reuters
The most dangerous statement by a military man in modern times was uttered by Gen. Douglas MacArthur when he lectured his political master President Harry Truman in 1951 that in war, "there is no substitute for victory."
MacArthur had been in command of American and allied forces fighting the Chinese and remnants of the North Korean Army in Korea in early 1951 and he believed the only way to win in Korea was for Truman to allow him to fight the war in whatever way he deemed best.
If that meant taking the war directly to the Chinese, with the possibility of bringing about World War III, so be it, thought MacArthur. After all, a World War II hero who led Allied forces in the unconditional surrender of Japan, MacArthur believed that once war starts, military victory is the only goal and can have no substitute.
The problem, however, is that MacArthur was wrong: in some wars, there are substitutes for victory. Sometimes the way a military fights a war results in it reaching a point where it is no longer worth the amount of blood and treasure invested to fight it in that way.
When a military force commits to fighting a war in a certain way, and becomes morally bound to it, breaking the military away from that approach becomes very difficult. This is because military organizations by nature are disciplined and duty-bound organizations, and when they are told to fight, they operate under a basic assumption: they're fighting to win.
Combine this commitment with specific operational methodologies and the blood spilled in carrying them out, and a state can become burdened with an overly dogmatic military unable to see alternative paths. No wonder, therefore, that even today it is not uncommon to hear senior American military leaders repeating MacArthur's dangerous phrase.
THIS IS the current state of affairs for the United States in Afghanistan: An American army that has become trapped by a straitjacketed military approach according to which the only way to achieve America's core policy goal in Afghanistan is armed nation building.
Yet the core policy objective from the start of the war, as expressed clearly and repeatedly by senior American political and military officials, was the destruction of al-Qaida. A quite limited policy goal for sure – and one that was largely achieved only a few years into the war.
Instead of grasping this basic strategic reality – that the US had achieved its core policy objective – the American military and its political masters convinced themselves that the only way to keep al-Qaida at bay was to build a modern state in the Hindu Kush.
But nation building in Afghanistan to prevent the return of a handful of al- Qaida fighters is a military mission without end.
I mean really, how long does it take to build modern, functioning states from scratch? It took the United States nearly 100 years to work out the fundamental social and political issue that divided it, namely slavery. In Europe it took hundreds and hundreds of years for small feudal entities to combine under centralized governments to form modern states.
So why do the US and its military think that it can achieve this in Afghanistan in only a few years? Because the American military, with buy-in from its political leaders, has come to accept a narrative that says nation building anywhere in the world can be done, if only the right general is put in charge and the tactics are tweaked.
FRENCH PRESIDENT Georges Clemenceau realized the problem of letting a military organization determine what victory should be in war and how to achieve it when he said at the end of the World War I that war was "too serious a matter to be left up to the generals."
Today in Afghanistan the effect of the American military's embrace of and belief in the efficacy of armed nation building, with its never ending stream of statements of progress, has obscured the vast amount of blood and treasure invested in a military methodology that has not produced results. Yet still we hear the calls to try harder, stay a bit longer, and keep the faith that it will all turn out right, because in war there is, as they say, no substitute for victory.
If the British had adopted such myopic, MacArthur-esque thinking in 1842 as they suffered military defeat in Afghanistan at the hands of angry tribesmen who wanted to be left alone, they would have never left. But the British did leave, and they departed because their intelligent strategic calculation told them it was no longer worth it to stay.
Unfortunately MacArthur's most dangerous thinking from 1951 is alive and well today in the American defense establishment and in the wonky policy world that supports it.
RECENTLY, ONE of MacArthur's loudest apparent disciples, neoconservative writer Max Boot, noted that there is a benefit from the American people not caring about the war in Afghanistan.
Since they don't care about the war, argued Boot, the American military can be left alone to finally "get it right."
MacArthur would have appreciated the implication of Boot's words: leave the military alone to fight the war as they see fit.
But aside from the militaristic ramblings of American defense experts, in a democracy the definition of victory and the means to achieve it cannot be left up to the military. Clemenceau was right, war is too important to be left up to the generals. But if a democracy does leave war up to the generals and unaccountable civilian experts like Max Boot, wars will never end until "victory" is achieved, even if the cost of pursuing that victory is no longer worth the effort.

Donatella Versace biopic is 'fiction'
Versace has branded a new biopic about Donatella Versace "a work of fiction."
The upmarket fashion label has hit out against 'House of Versace', which tells the story of the fashion legacy Donatella has created, while also documenting her struggles following the murder of her brother Gianni Versace in 1997.
The film is an adaptation of Deborah Ball's 2010 novel 'House of Versace: The Untold Story of Genius, Murder and Survival', with actress Gina Gershon cast as the leading lady.
A spokesperson told WWD: "Since Versace did not authorize the book on which it is based, the movie should only be seen as a work of fiction.
"Versace has neither authorized nor had any involvement whatsoever in the forthcoming TV movie about Mrs. Versace."
In a short clip in the trailer, Gina is seen trying to entice onlookers to shop in the store. Speaking in an Italian accent, she says: "It's Versace, ladies. Why don't you go by the store? Your husbands will be happy."
The former Bond girl was initially reluctant to take the part because Donatella is "bit of a caricature", however, when she realized there was a family element to it, she warmed to the plot.
She previously said: "I was like, 'There's no way I'm touching that', just because when we think of Donatella, you think, 'Oh, she's so flamboyant, she's a bit of a caricature.' But then I read the script and I just thought, it's really a family drama at the end of the day and I found it so compelling."

In Mr. Smith's recent "Opinion" piece, referring to the controversy over Wyndemere streets, I have to say I agree with him wholeheartedly! When I lived for 12 years in the Washington Bottom area and needed to go to north Parkersburg, I traveled up Murdoch Avenue, then onto Emerson Avenue. Not having been raised here, I knew nothing about the so-called "shortcut" over Quincy Hill. And when I purchased a house on top of the hill, realtors, naturally, weren't mentioning anything about the amount of traffic on that street (let alone the speed of many travelers). We who reside here on the hilltop would like nothing better than to have a "gate" at one end or the other, so the street would no longer be a "shortcut" to and from north Parkersburg, but somehow I doubt the city would approve that! (We don't even have speed limit signs at either end, which I have been discussing recently with our district councilman...and, no, I am not naive enough to think that 25 mph signs will slow all people down, but it might give them a "mental nudge" the speed limit is not 35 or 45!)
We have small children living on the street and there is a park here that is heavily used in good weather: both good reasons to stop the excessive speeding, which a gate would do ... again, we have no hope of the city approving a gate.
No, my house is not like those in Wyndemere, but that should not stop me from having the same rights as those who live there. Mr. Smith states the residents of Wyndemere contend they do not want their neighborhood to become a "cut-through" from Parkersburg to Vienna; I do not want my street to be a cut-through from south Parkersburg to north Parkersburg, but it is, and I'm sure there are many other areas/streets/neighborhoods that have the same problem. So if the city law director says that Wyndemere can have a gate at one end and that "fulfills the responsibility of public access on a public street," then every affected area should be entitled to do the same.

Hey guys wifey is looking for an appetite suppressant as she's just given up smoking and is hungry constantly, she's terrified of packing on BF like last time she quit.
What I'm asking is what your guys experience is regarding fat burners and appetite suppressants. She cannot go the ECA Route as she gets randomly tested for drugs and alcohol at work.
Cheers for your advice!

PX Black is a perfect fit here. The stim side of Px Black is actually very mild, but appetite suppression, thermogenic effects and mood enhancement are amazing.
The best way I could describe it is, you are sitting around and notice Hey. .... I'm not hungry. ...... lol. Very smooth product.

If shes hungry all the time, she might not be eating enough overall.
Might just need one or two snacks to fill her up in between meals.
I mix whey/casein + take a scoop of natty PB to get me between breakfast and lunch
Just a thought...

Well it was a hard slog for me, I first went to someone (Harley St London) after reading some magazines I saw the person's name many times printed and it all looked very good, the lady was quite pushy and rushed me a little too much, I felt I was under to much pressure and not relaxed at all.
I did have the first session carried out but right away I knew that the shape was not right and far to round.
The week after this I was going to see my plastic surgeon as I was looking to have some lipo carried out, I casually mentioned my eyebrows and he recommended I go and see Heidi Worman, I have great trust in him he is one of the top UK Surgeons, so I knew he would not just give out any old name, if only I had seen him before I had my eyebrows carried out it would have saved me money.
I went to see her and she took one look at my eyebrows and was very honest, stating that it was to round and very old style, but I was lucky that the other lady had done them so thin as she could alter and work within the shape.(if not she said I would have had to had removal!)
I am thrilled to bits, many have claimed she is the best, and I now agree. I am super happy with the shape, the way she treated me goes a long way in my book.

HI Jenny,
Great review! Community members are often asking who to go to in the UK for Permanent Makeup, so this is good too know. I'm also very happy she was able to fix the initial problem. We'd love to see pictures!
Thanks so much!

A word from Soif Wine Bar Restaurant
Chef Santos Majano's menu changes almost daily, though every dish – small plates, appetizers, entrées and desserts – emphasizes seasonal, sustainably grown, and intensely flavored ingredients primarily sourced from local farmers and provisioners.
Soif offers over 50 wines by the
glass from small, artisanal producers, as well as some 400 selections by the bottle from our wine shop, available to diners for $10 over retail price.
We find our delight in discovering the distinctive, expressive wines, sourcing and preparing delicious, wholesome food, and then putting it all together so when guests walk in the door, night after night, there is something here for them that is authentic – that satisfies their thirst for the soulful, the delicious, and the well made.

Diner Reviews
The hostess was very flexible by
holding our table a half hour after our reservation time as we were late. It was a busy Saturday night so the noise level was energetic but not too loud to have a conversation. It took 10-15 minutes for the waitress to take our drink order. She was very pleasant and had great recommendations but seemed too busy to spend much time with us. We completed our appetizers at a leisurely pace, then there was a good 15-20 minute wait for entrees. We flagged down our waitress and ordered desert while eating entrees so that it would arrive by the time we were done. Overall I thought wine flights were interesting, food was creative and good (chicken liver seemed a little runny and chalky).The service was slow side."

We simply could not have had a
better dining experience."
Dined on 2/22/2014
I came to this restaurant because
I read great things about the food. I had the shrimp and chorizo risotto which I really enjoyed but when you go to a "wine bar/ restaurant" I expect the staff to be very knowledgeable about the wine and to be reasonably helpful, especially when you are out of the glass of wine that I order, to suggest a wine that is close in cost and/or flavor would be the professional thing to do. Instead I was suggested one of the most expensive glasses and when I was reluctant because of cost she simply left to "give me more time." My fiance had to get her attention to call her over to ask to suggest something else. To me great food is not so hard to find, it is great service that makes restaurants truly great."

Had a very nice early Valentine's
Day dinner with my husband. Tables are too close together to be romantic. Felt very crowded."
Dined on 2/13/2014
The wine list is amazing and they
also have a wine shop in the restaurant that you can purchase and have at your dinner table. We ordered a bottle of the sparkling rose, charcuterie plate, cheese plate as well as some small vegetable sides. When the food arrived it was wonderfully displayed and we could not wait to dive in! Our server was great and checked in on us from time to time to refill our glasses and talk "food and wine" with us. She was even so nice as to give me the name of the olive oil company that they use for their bread dip! At the end of our meal, and bottle, she presented us with a dessert menu. Normally I would decline because I am not a "dessert" person but we went with the lemon tart and it was divine!"
Dined on 2/10/2014
HI there, I had heard great things
about Soif, and I'd characterize it as good, but not great. That being said, I am not much of a wine drinker, so I think the highlight of the restaurant was lost on us. If we were more of wine drinkers, I think I'd rate it much higher. As for the food, it was good, nicely presented, but portion sizes were small and I found the menu options to be very limited and were more on weird side (I guess I am a foodie, but not that much of a foodie) We left feeling hungry, but the dessert options were a little too "out there" for us. I think it would be considered a great restaurant, but we weren't the right customers. In the Santa Cruz/monterey area, we prefer La Posta or Passionfish."
Dined on 12/28/2013
Soif brings excellent food,
service and wine selection to downtown Santa Cruz, with a Santa Cruz friendly and welcoming attitude. It manages to keep the prices at a very good quality/quantity ratio too."
Dined on 1/30/2014
Revisted this week after they were
closed for a bit for kitchen updates. Also a few updates in the dining room. Waiter noted tables now have adjustable legs so they don't need to get on there knees with paper to balance them. Food was wonderful. Wine paring perfect. We were well taken care of by the wait staff."
Dined on 1/29/2014
Their butterscotch pudding is to
die for so when we saw it on the menu it was without question my dessert choice. They suggested a Chenin Blanc dessert wine to pair. Wine and pudding?!?!?!? I thought. We went for each. Each individually outstanding. Together, absolute magic on the tongue. These folks know their stuff when it comes to pairing so don't short yourself the experience. Also the speakeasy band they have play on Mondays just enjoys the heck out of themselves and is so sweet an experience."
Dined on 1/27/2014
This is my top pick as a foodie
for Santa Cruz. The meals are unique, local and well paired. They also provide a great education on wines that will compliment the dish"
Dined on 1/26/2014
Thought the four of us would have
an cozy evening of good food and wine. Walked in to the smell of greasy fish/game permeating the whole dining room. Waitress a little cocky with her first comment to us as we were seated; she didn't get much of a response from any of us and the service went down hill from there. She walked away before all of us had ordered, and then served a dish that had only been inquired about. Generally the food is mediocre (overly salty salad, how do you do that?) and the immaturity of our waitress, i.e. not coming back to check on our food, having other wait staff take additional orders, or serve food, made for an unpleasant experience. Definitely won't even bother giving them another try. Three strikes, you're out."
Dined on 1/25/2014
great food and ambiance plus
wonderful jazz on Monday nights. wished I lived in town so could go there every week!"
Dined on 1/20/2014
The "ambiance" rating would have
been higher if there were table clothes, flowers, and candles, etc. which a typical restaurant should have. May be it was new years eve, the waitress was rushing. We have to go back at normal times to truly evaluate this place. I like the food presentation on my plate, the dessert hits the spot, portion is small but I feel I have eaten. That's what it counts. Half of the restaurant is the wine shop, I picked up a bottle after having it at the dinner table and liked it."
Dined on 12/31/2013
For 7 pm on a Friday night the
service was remarkably prompt. The wait staff had that rare but winning combination of being friendly but not overbearing. I had the bouillabaisse with the recommended pairing and my husband had the seared duck with the recommended pairing as well. Both were excellent. We'll be coming back."
Dined on 12/27/2013
I love Soif! They have an
incredible wine list, and if you sit at the bar, make sure to ask the bartender, Julie, what she'd recommend. She is brilliant when it comes to wine. I think Soif's food is divine too. Sometimes it's outrageously delicious, other times it's just down-home tasty, but it's always well-prepared and interesting. I don't think they have the greatest desserts, but you can always skip the sweets and have a great after-dinner drink. All around, one of the best places to go out in Santa Cruz."
Dined on 11/7/2013
We were seated 30 minutes after
our reservation and promptly told they were out of all entered except for 2. We ordered 1 bland over priced quail and an assortment of sides. But oops put of those as well and the radicchio salad came with out the described ingredients. The worst part was, they showed no remorse."
Dined on 12/23/2013
Soif always delivers. Food, as
ever, was extremely tasty. A bit pricey for the portion size, but at the same time, given the quality I never complain. Wine list always has something interesting to try, and the servers know what they're talking about if you have questions about the wines/wine-food pairings."
Dined on 11/17/2013
It's hard to do pork well, and
Soif didn't quite hit the mark on this occasion. I had difficulty slicing it even with the meat knife provided. I also had difficulty chewing. The rest of the meal was delicious."
Dined on 11/16/2013
I like that the portions are
small, but the quail didn't make it for me. Sorry. Otherwise, great. Not sure my enthusiasm to return, but thanks, I am glad you are there. Jenny"
Dined on 11/15/2013
It took the waiter 20 minutes to
visit our table after we were seated. He was rude and dismissive. The food was served cold. No apologies and we had to hunt down our waiter to complain. We then had to track him down to get the bill and, surprise, nothing was deducted. We asked to see the manager and when he arrived at the table, he had no idea what was going on. The table next to us complained of slow service and undercooked food. We will never go back."
Dined on 11/8/2013
Food was great, although portions
were small. We really enjoy the wine recommended by our server."
Dined on 10/7/2013
My wife and I want to like Soif,
but more often than not, poor service detracts from our enjoyment of the food. As a table of 4, we have waited 40 minutes before a waiter was available to take our order. A couple of nights ago, the two of us waited 40 minutes for our appetizer to appear. By then we had finished the wine that was "paired" with the appetizer, and bar staff had already delivered the wine that was suppose to be paired with our main course. When we complained about the wait, the bar staff wine deliverer replied "I'm not surprised. The kitchen is swamped." This is an excuse we've heard before. The kitchen and wait staff are not capable of meeting the demand when their dining room is full."
Dined on 11/3/2013
I frequented Soif regularly 4
years ago. I stopped eating there because my friends didn't think it was good value for the portions. We often left hungry after spending $100.00. It had been so long I went on a whim and was pleasantly surprised at the portions and continued excellent quality. I'll be back in again and frequently."
Dined on 10/26/2013
Our server recommended the brussel
sprout and smoked chevrie small plate and halibut appetizer and she was so right. They were delicious. She chose wine to pair with our selections and the pairings were perfect. She was attentive and helpful. What a pleasant experience!"
Dined on 10/22/2013
Amazing food and wine pairings!
Ate their twice in two days... both times were excellent Highly recommend this restaurant!"
Dined on 10/18/2013
How can you go wrong, We have been
here a couple of times now and have not been disappointed. Tapas Tuesday is a great chance to try a good assortment of great dishes and the wine flights are pretty decent. The staff is great and knowledgeable if you are adventurous let them pair your meal with the wines and enjoy."
Dined on 10/16/2013
Soif is super yummy but a bit on
the spendy side, so it was perfect for SC Restaurant Week. I hadn't been in a while and I had forgotten how completely GREAT the food is. Taste, texture, temperature. The culinary perfection at Soif makes me angry at bad food. :)"
Dined on 10/7/2013
Elements of the food were good:
and even delicious: the soup and the roast pork belly. The rest was very mediocre. The chocolate dessert tasted like something from a cheap supermarket pudding packet;; the tagliatelle was almost crunchy along with the cubes of roast vegetable spread throughout its tasty pork sauce. However the portion size of my dish was better that that of my companion's micro-slice of trout. This was not a cheap experience either our bill was over $100 for two. Yes we had a glass of wine and that was the highlight of the meal but this would be the primary reason you'd want to go back to Soif. Do not go there expecting a good meal. Order a mouthful or two of something along with your wine but not a meal."
Dined on 10/10/2013
Soif was very busy since it was
restaurant week, but our server was on top of it. The food was delicious and she also recommended a wine to go with it. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience."
Dined on 10/8/2013
I've enjoyed every occasion I've
had of dining at Soif. The food is prepared with the utmost care and imagination, and the wine pairings are superb. It can get a little noisy on a busy night but is fine on quieter evenings. A great place to relax and enjoy nice wine and wonderful food."
Dined on 10/7/2013
I went here with a friend for
restaurant week and so I got to try a number of dishes. For the appetizers, our risotto was undercooked and the squash soup was bland. Our squash gnocchi entree was tasty, but the portion was appetizer size at best. The halibut entree was horrendous; the fish was overcooked, dry and had no seasoning to speak of. The desserts were the lone bright point of the meal. The service was not terrible, but not good. We waited for spoons to eat our soup, and our server seemed rather indifferent to whether or not we enjoyed our experience. I would not return here."
Dined on 10/7/2013
The food was of superior quality
and the wait staff skilled and professional! Risotto with wild mushrooms and crispy pork belly to die for and the wine possibilities and knowledgeable staff to recommend perfect pairings make this place one of my favorites."
Dined on 10/3/2013
We had to take an early
reservation, all that was available on a restaurant week Friday. It was still not too crowded at that hour, so noise was not a problem at all. Interesting atmosphere, great tasting food and wine, excellent service. Only caveat would be the extremely small portions. Not a place to go when you're starving! We are not huge eaters but even with the 3-course prix fixe which included dessert, it was barely enough to satisfy our hunger. Still, for the quality of the food, it was worth experiencing."
Dined on 10/5/2013
Usually reliably good we left Soif
disappointed this visit. When ordering espresso at the end of the meal we were told the espresso machine was broken and no coffee was available. Waitress made no apology, and no offer of tea or other beverage to complement desert. In fact she was rude about it. Uncharacteristic for Soif, but just another example of the dearth of good service in American restaurants."
Dined on 10/5/2013
There were 3 of us for dinner, we
each ordered a different entrée ,appetizer and desert , all were exquisite . Definitely a place fit for foodies"
Dined on 10/5/2013
The place has a reputation for
being loud. When it is packed, as it was on the first night of restaurant week, it is deafening. My husband and I finally gave up yelling at each other across the table. The food was excellent, inventive and the wine list is wonderful. I wish something would be done about the noise level...."
Dined on 10/3/2013
We have had dinner at Soif many
times over the years and it's one of our favorite places to dine. We love a place where you have the opportunity to learn about wines, (the staff is EXCELLENT!) especially wines that are not from California. And the food is always so very good. We'll be back again and again.... <3"
Dined on 9/27/2013
A delightful culinary oasis with a
great wine selection."
Dined on 9/20/2013
I stopped by to grab a light
dinner trying to catch a movie. The Bartender was knowledgeable and recommended exactly what I was looking for. The Cauliflower soup was to die for and the Pork Belly extremely delish. I will return when in town."
Dined on 9/19/2013
Soif constantly surprises and
delights us with their always delicious, fresh and local fayre. Not only do the menu combinations sound good they are extremely flavorful and usually interesting combinations ( this time squid with pork belly)..... Quite simply our favorite and much cheaper for very fine food than some of the much pricier restaurants around. Love that the menu changes daily :)"

Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology: Monkey.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from 293T cells, transfected with 100 nM SignalSilence® Control siRNA (Unconjugated) #6568 (-), SignalSilence® MAML1 siRNA I #12386 (+), or SignalSilence® MAML1 siRNA II (+), using MAML1 Antibody #4608 (upper) or β-Actin (D6A8) Rabbit mAb #8457 (lower). The MAML1 Antibody confirms silencing of MAML1 expression, while the β-Actin (D6A8) Rabbit mAb is used as a loading control.
SignalSilence® MAML1 siRNA II from Cell Signaling Technology (CST) allows the researcher to specifically inhibit MAML1 expression using RNA interference, a method whereby gene expression can be selectively silenced through the delivery of double stranded RNA molecules into the cell. All SignalSilence® siRNA products from CST are rigorously tested in-house and have been shown to reduce target protein expression by western analysis.
Quality Control
Oligonucleotide synthesis is monitored base by base through trityl analysis to ensure appropriate coupling efficiency. The oligo is subsequently purified by affinity-solid phase extraction. The annealed RNA duplex is further analyzed by mass spectrometry to verify the exact composition of the duplex. Each lot is compared to the previous lot by mass spectrometry to ensure maximum lot-to-lot consistency.
Directions For Use
CST recommends transfection with 100 nM SignalSilence® MAML1 siRNA II 48 to 72 hours prior to cell lysis. For transfection procedure, follow protocol provided by the transfection reagent manufacturer. Please feel free to contact CST with any questions on use.
Each vial contains the equivalent of 100 transfections, which corresponds to a final siRNA concentration of 100 nM per transfection in a 24-well plate with a total volume of 300 μl per well.
Mastermind-like (MAML) family of proteins are homologs of Drosophila Mastermind. The family is composed of three members in mammals: MAML1, MAML2, and MAML3 (1,2). MAML proteins form complexes with the intracellular domain of Notch (ICN) and the transcription factor CSL (RBP-Jκ) to regulate Notch target gene expression (3-5). MAML1 also interacts with myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) to regulate myogenesis (6). MAML2 is frequently found to be fused with Mucoepidermoid carcinoma translocated gene 1 (MECT1, also know as WAMTP1 or TORC1) in patients with mucoepidermoid carcinomas and Warthin's tumors (7).

Long Island Memories
Guest Editorial By Supervisor Michael N. Petito The Town of Oyster Bay presents an area which has been described by planners as a " prime example of a fast- growing post war suburban area." When you realize that we have grown to a Township of 340,000 persons and that half of that population consists of persons under the age of 35, the problems of providing adequate recreation for such a variety of residents is apparent. One of our major aims must be to attain sufficient open land for future use as park and recreation regions. In my Capital Budget which I presented to the Town several months ago, considerable emphasis was placed on recreation provisions for the present and for the years ahead. A five year projection shows that the following items will receive top priority. The proposed construction of a Community Center in Plainedge, a community park at Heisser Lane in Farmingdale, expansion of facilities at John Burns Park, a land acquisition program for development of future neighborhood parks and improvements for the major beaches on our South Shore - Tobay, Alhambra and Florence Avenue. I have long favored the construction of a Community Center in Plainedge as one of the prime needs for that community because there has been a severe shortage of recreation land and facilities in that area of the Town. The Center would be styled to include indoor recreation facilities, a gymnasium, swimming pool and modern physical training equipment. It would also contain an all- purpose room which could be used as a theater for local residents wishing to present plays, concert performances, for civic meetings and other community functions. The acquisition of the 16 acre site at Heissers Lane in Farmingdale starts a three phase development program that will eventually provide a complete range of recreation and park facilities for that community. It is planned that ballfields and parking facilities will be completed next year and other use of the area will then be set in motion for 1969 after thorough consultation with resident of the Community. I have always felt that recreation and park facilities in any of our communities should be the result of the desires of the residents of those respective areas. At John Burns Park, I have proposed a complete 50 acre development program which will give Massapequa area residents a multi- purpose park and recreation complex. Construction of administration and marine service buildings are in the initial phase of planning with the installation of lights for night football and baseball games on fields that will be developed as part of this expanded recreation program. I have also set 1970 as a target date for the development of 10 acres at Marjorie Post Park into a picnic area and walkway and additional boat slips will be available at Tobay Beach. A picnic and Playground area are planned for next year at Florence Avenue Beach and I have proposed construction of a boat basin for Alhambra Beach by 1971. These are some of the major proposals that I envision in the years ahead for the southern portion of the Township. Other programs are also being prepared for all other areas of Oyster Bay and it is my hope that we will be able to point to the Town as a model of recreational endeavor in the future years. $^* n* fa Jformttigiial?

Police Offer Advice When Homes Unoccupied CHRISTIAN SCIENCE RADIO SERIES SUNDAY WNBC 660kc - 7: 45 » . m. WBAB 1440kc- 9: 00 a. m. Nassau Police Commissioner Francis B. Looney asked residents who are planning to leave their homes unoccupied for an extended period, to help police safeguard their property. Looney called upon the public to follow a simple two step operation that will help prevent burglaries in the home and in the community. " The first step," Looney said, " is removing the profit from burglary. In doing so, residents can help prevent burglaries." Profit for a burglar comes from the cash and easy- to- dispose- of jewelry found in a home. Cash and jewelry in the home should be hidden and locked securely. ' The second step," Looney added, ' Is to eliminate the opportunity for burglary. Be your neighbor's keeper. Keep your eyes open for strangers around your neighbor's home; note license numbers when you can; call police as quickly as possible. You and your neighbor working together can eliminate burglaries." In July and August of 1966, 487 homes were burglarized. Residents were advised when leaving home for the day or evening to lock all windows and doors, and leave a light burning at night. Close and lock your garage door. Dont leave notes explaining your absence, or leave a key any place. Dont leave a ladder where a burglar can use it to gain entry. When you leave home for an extended period, notify police, so they can check your home. Stop deliveries of mail, milk and newspapers. Ask a neighbor to remove circulars from letterbox, and to keep an eye on house and property. Eliminate as much as possible the indication that you are absent. Notify police immediately if strangers, young or old ring doorbells, and ask vague or strange questions; persons without credentials ring doorbells, seek employment, or attempt to gain admittance to your home to solicit or sell; strangers who seek information about your family or neighbors, or their whereabouts; the presence of suspicious persons or cars In your neighborhood. Always safeguard money, expensive jewelry and pocketbooks, and do not display them when strangers are in your home; know whom you admit to your home, and deny admittance to anyone who is not properly identified. Commissioner Looney added, that it is most important that the profit and opportunity for burglars and thieves be eliminated. iTunaburger Ideal Summer Luncheon Treat Here's a taste- tempting meatless lunch that both adults and teenagers will like.

And finished this one too!
Yeah I'm a big fan of The Last Unicorn lol.
Your sketchbook is so inspirational!
Rookie Sketch book My Sketchbook ^_^ Critque Wanted!
NizhoniWolf: Thanks very much!!
Well I don't have much to show right now, just a crappy little sketch poop that I did while I was playing around.
Wow, this is such a great sketchbook, great style! Such a lovely watercolour feel to your images, love the ninja Alice and the clockwork girl.
Thanks for posting up the process pieces, interesting to see. Would love to see a process shot/video of how you build up your colours.
Naked Ninja: Thanks a lot!! Ha ha my coloring style is probably not very good- I'm surprised anybody would be interested in seeing it I'll try to put up some in progress shots of the color part on my next finished piece though since you asked
Just got some ink drawings and wip stuff right now, the holidays are a time sucker for sure. I've also got some pet portrait commissions that I'm trying to finish that take time away from more fun art projects
Just had a quick gander, it's cool to see how far you've come since you first started this SB! Keep it up!
Art is not about competing against others and being better than everyone else, but it is about competing against yourself and discovering your greatest potential!
whoa i went thru your entire sketchbook and its all amazing
would love some feedback on how often you drew in that 2-3 year period, you were good then but now your amazing..and you seem to have developed your own style too
great work!
You have a wonderful sketchbook Dreoilin!
The last updates are amazing, especialy the girl with the white hair. Will you finish her?
A Faux: Thanks! I think about 2-3 years ago was when I started going to a local figure drawing group once a week- before then I had not seen very good improvements. Figure drawing really did a lot for me- it made my anatomy a lot better, made me faster at drawing observationally, and got me into experimenting more than I had been with the media I used. Also, I've been gradually ramping up my motivation- especially a couple months ago when I really said- "Now I'm gonna get better, or die trying" and started trying to draw at least a couple hours every day lol.
Now it's to the point where my schedule is: 8 am- go to work till 5pm. Come home and spend a little time with husband (maybe cook dinner if he's really lucky lol), and draw until between 1 and 2 am, then go to bed. On weekends or time when I have days off, I try to not sleep at all at least one night and just draw. Some weekends I draw pretty much the whole weekend.
Olivier H: Thanks! Yep, since I'm off today I plan to work on her a little more along with other projects
Well here's the dryad picture finally finished, seems like I've been working on her off and on for awhile. Just kept starting other pictures instead lol. I've included some wip shots of my color process on this one- there's not much to show actually. I just work in lots of layers- building the colors up gradually almost like glazing I guess- and I use lots of overlay layers for altering colors as well as adding in the cool watercolor texture.
I love the Dryad piece!
Quick post before bedtime- some pencils ready to be inked. I can't wait... that's my favorite part for sure
I think you should do some designs for things like chairs, beds, frames and glassware and textiles, your lines would really suit 3d objects.

You have been adding some really nice stuff in here! I like your half painted half drawn style. It looks like a mix of traditional watercolors and oils, but I'm guessing digital?
It's interesting what you said about the times you draw. It is very simular to my own drawing schedule... Makes me wonder how many other people on CA are nights/weekend artist like me.
Well not much to show- I haven't gotten nearly as much work done over the holidays as I was hoping to. My wrist and hand really started acting up- especially hurting a lot when I draw My cousin (who's a physical therapist) looked at it and said it was precursor to carpal tunnel syndrome, and gave me some good advice on things to do for it. I think it's been getting better, especially after I started wearing a brace on it at night. It still tends to hurt when I'm drawing, especially for extended periods- so I'm trying to stretch it and take lots of breaks. It really sucks!!!
Some fanart- the twilight piece was for my best friend and my sister- I hesitated to post it here, since there probably aren't many twilight fans here lol, but I kind of liked how the picture turned out. Maybe the Skyrim fanart will make up for it
Also a sketch for the ArtOrder challenge going on right now.

Sketch for another ArtOrder challenge...
Last edited by Dreoilin; January 26th, 2012 at 01:31 AM.
Sorry to hear about your hand and wrist pain, but nevertheless I think you have a really spectacular style. All I can offer is encouragement: keep doing you!
My site:
New World Creation: Designers Wanted Environment of the Week
Vulgar': Fortunately the wrist has been getting better ever since I got a brace to wear at night. The encouragement is much appreciated- that's the stuff that keeps me going when I feel like everything I do is poop (which can be often )
Fiddling a bit more.... time to move to ink I think.
Coming along slooooowly...
ur style reminds me of Boris Vallejo alot.. i dont know if u know him or not but i think if u started using oil for ur paintings . its gona look alot more like his paintings... fantastic job.. im huge fan of fantasy art. .. dragons and fairies.. i like this sketchbook alooot... good job ^_^
i love to do everything and learn everything... i hate to be cornered in one place.. i believe u can be anything u want... Your mind is limitless... check out my sketchbook ... u will find a bit of everything
the lines for your latest piece are awesome.
Rain Walker: Thanks! Never thought of my stuff as looking like Boris Vallejo- I will have to check him out more! I've never been a fan of oils, but I really want to get back into watercolor and acrylics more.
PontusEuxinus: Thanks!
Well I'm pretty sure I'm done with this piece. Also, still working on the Levi artorder challenge as well- running out of time though!
These are some beautiful sketches, and I can see a lot of improvement, flicking through your sketchbook. I'm especially looking forward to the coloured version of the one with the skeleton.
Umbravita: Thanks! Unfortunately I feel like the skeleton picture might have turned out to be something of a disappointment...
Here's the finished ArtOrder Levi challenge pic. Kind of rushed on the colors, so I might still go back and work on it a little at some point. The ArtOrder challenges have been fun, and I got some good crits- but also seeing my stuff next to all the amazing entries being done by other people makes me pretty depressed. I think I'm currently in a really low point- I just feel like everything I do is crap and worthless, and nobody cares to look at it. This happens sometimes, all I can do is keep drawing and hopefully climb out of the funk
Hey haven't been here for a while. I like that crazy dragon lady. Have you ever thought of branching out into an alternate rendering style? I'd just love to see some more intense lighting in your work. That tree for example would be perfect!
Wicked!! But I actually find myself liking the clean b/w lineart versions the best. ^^
