Right now nickels, you can upload whatever you want and receive critiques. For your hand drawings try putting in structure for the palm. Right now everything feels really contoured and less constructed also include more line variety.
To continue the momentum here are my hand drawings
@Nickels - I agree about the palm structure. It's what they're going to be looking for the most. I also suggest drawing the stereo once, then using a light table to trace it over in the second. The dial and switches don't quite match up properly.
@kamikazel33t - I like the acting you chose, there's some good energy in that. My only complaint is that they look distorted. Proportions are just off enough to make it look like there's something wrong. There's this huge gap between the hand lines on the second image on the pinkie side when compared to the first. On my hand, these lines don't move between the positions.
It really sucks when your drawings get to a point where it contains what they want, but they just want it better. I've been told that for 3 years now.
Anyways, here's my hands which I guess I'll call finished.
@official thanks! I would not have spot that if you did not mention it . Now it's my turn, from what I can tell your hands are seemingly well structured but I would also have to mention proportions as well so watch out for that thumb and also the arc of the palm is a little more curve in a way were the middle finger is the apex(I'd actually say it's more of an upside down V). The pose seems a little stiff so if you ever get the chance to do another set of hands try capture the gesture of it and construct over it, that way you kind of end up with a more rhythmic look to your drawings. About your comment, I truly agree, I feel as though even after 4 months of grinding I feel like I reached the point where I am almost there but not quite there yet.
I'm gonna try uploading this and see if it works.
This is a rough room layout (I still have to put the character in, fill the bookcase with dvd's, put a chair in front of the TV and scatter DVDs across the floor as well as some other stuff but this is the basic layout I've come up with). I could use some critiques because I don't know how to do perspective very well.
@pepe The floor plane seems to be quite off and the bowl(I assume) on the floor seems to have a pointed ellipse as well as that flower pot so I suggest you recheck your ellipses as well as check if both vanishing points are on the same horizon. I think the issue is you tried to draw the horizon freehand and it did not come out straight. Your door also seems to lack the details such as the hinges of the door and walls are not really always that plain, sometimes walls would have a tiny paneling connected to the floor. While I understand it should not be a technically piece watch out for the measuring of the the floor panels. I also feel that the composition of the room is boring overall and that the vanishing points are too close putting it in forced perspective. Have the vanishing points outside of the page you are drawing it in(I did this by putting pages next to it and extending the horizon line. A little tip so that you don't commit to a shot you feel does not work as well is to make quick and dirty thumbnails just to get a quick feel of the overall look.
EDIT: wait I figured out what was wrong with the floor plane you drew the room past the vanishing point or at least it contributed to the issue.

Your construction looks pretty solid. However, The wrist looks a little skinny in comparison to the hand. Also, be careful of the perspective of the can of eyes in both drawings.
We're all well on our way guys! a little over 2 weeks left! (maybe even 3 ) Let's work, work, work! I've been working for what feels like forever. My friends are abit frustrated with me because I wont come and hang out haha. They'll never understand! After all this is done we should have a nice sit down and talk about our goals for this program
@Kamil and @Lamp
Hey! Im just curious...when would you guys have to send your portfolios in?
@kawaii 22nd of feb *gulp*, I am working on my storyboards now and still have a lot of work. Luckily I work well under pressure .
I'd like to send mine out by the 15th at the latest, but, I'm not sure how fast I can work. Also, I got my username and password but it still won't let me log in. Calling again tomorrow.
Woops, I forgot to critique your life drawings dunnstar. Well so far I feel like the last 3 are your strongest because most probably they took you the longest time. For the first although it was probably a really short pose, it seems to lack confidence and seem tentative also to note when blocking in the legs in short hand it works pretty well to use wrapping contours. your second one you seem to lack the connection of your under structure to your actual drawing of the figure it almost seems as if you just quickly just put in afterwards for show because constructions you placed don't seem to function to be able to take up 3d space. I think that may be so because the landmarks actually need to show the direction of these forms in 3d space and act as a substitute for the center lines.
Hi Official, wow its been a while since I critiqued you I think? Anyways my thoughts are that the second drawing is the weaker one. Try showing the tension, the grip of the hand on the cap. You want to capture what the muscles of the hand are feeling in the moment, right now I feel like the cap is just sitting loftly on the hand without the hand gripping it which makes it less believable.
Btw everyone, here are my 2 action poses: http://s263.beta.photobucket.com/use...tml?sort=3&o=6

Do we have to do a drawing test for the animation program?
oh shit. I forgot completely about the 2 stillness/3 action part of the life drawings. I do not have any motion figure drawings. Shitshitshit.
Well for those you don't really need to have a life drawing model as long as the pose is an under five minutes and has this "about to" quality, I guess. Try to go to a park or something and see if you can get down some quick poses of people doing something.
I have a ton of quick gestures that show action, and I like them a lot, but I know this isn't what they want.
Hi guys!
I guess I found out about this forum a little late. I wish I had participated from the beginning, it would be really helpful. But I'll try to show you some my drawings anyway for feedback, if I can get my scanner to work again.
I was a bit confused by the animal part of the portfolio, do we have to send 2 drawings? Or 2 showing stillness and 3 motion?
Also, I was planning on mailing my portfolio today so it can arrive on February 22nd, but I read here that I just need to mail it before this date, is that right? After today, I'll only be able to mail it next thursday, because everything (including post offices) tend to close for Carnival in Brazil. I really didn't understand this "courier-stamped" part on the portfolio, so I just thought I'd be safe and send everything in time for February 22nd, but I could really use the extra days.
Thank you! I couldn't comment on the drawings before, but I hope it works out for all of us who are really working hard for it! =)
Ah, thar be spike in activity.
Mee-na. In answer to your question, courier stamp, is the date that your packaged is processed for delivery. (exact date you send it) not day it's received. You go to your local post office, they process your package and the courier stamps it DAY OF. This date can't be any later than feb 22nd.
Though, being in Brazil, I wouldn't chance it for day of but you can safely take the week if you really, really need it.
next question, of the 5 life drawings, 3 figure, 2 animal. 3 have to be active. You don't need to draw 7. Just 5.
as always thanks for the critique Kamil. I will pay it forward.
Hey Silvia. There's not much to say, except that the perspective is coming out very warped.
This is gonna need an overhaul and I know thats not what anyone wants to hear. I get it though, i'm struggling with my room drawings (On my 4th overhaul) so hang in there.
My best critique is to suggest an artbook on this.
Uh its Perspective Made easy by Norling
Linky, linky:
Also try for a horizontal line of 5-6 feet. your current one looks really high, if it was a bit lower it might be easier.
devour that, then approach the same drawing again.

Speaking of room drawings how complex should the background be for the storyboards and how well should they follow the rules of perspective?
ha! I don't know of any good advice on ignoring perspective.
I made sure there was a sense of depth in mine, but I didn't go to detailed. can't just have the figure hovering in space right?
how much drawings you have left kamil?

I have so much work to finish T_T, right now I am doing the storyboards. I finished the hand drawings, but that is it! The life drawings, I feel I've nailed down when it comes to learning to draw the figure but the issue is that I don't have any existing life drawing classes and nobody is willing to pose for me. I tried to redo the character rotations about three times now but the issue I face is when doing it traditionally it is quite hard to make sure everything is lined up before getting the final lines down because you can't really flip the image. I find that if I finished the character rotations everything is smooth road when it comes to the character part because my biggest problem normally has to do with the more technical tidbits of the rotation. I did one part of the room drawing half completed but I am not sure if I should finish it because it is in one-point perspective and I was considering redoing in 2-point( I was not sure though because I've seen in some examples they would one drawing in 1pt perspective and the second view in 2pt). Object drawings frighteningly, I don't have a single clue on what to for the after and I am especially baffled by the composition concept overall(for storyboards I do like rule of 3rds along with horizon line being at the level of the main character).
TL;DR I feel like I may borderline the skill requirements but at the same time extremely pressured to finish.
I certainly need to pick up my work because I still have my objects(good copy), room drawings to start, and storyboard is almost done! I have an itching feeling that if I keep it up then I can be finished a week before the presentation day LOL I am so lucky I have a lightpad to work with! Bless my boyfriend's heart!
I'm disappointed Kamil! I thought you'd have more done.
Ah well, hopefully you got the concepts down and its just about pushing it out?
I have a detailed critique of your hand(s) but i have to do it visually. There's alot of foreshortening issues. the thumb and index finger should be pushing forward not leaning to the side.

I am disappointed in myself to >_<, I've spent more time practicing than the actual portfolio itself and yeah I have rough work of everything. the issue is that my life would be so much easier if I had access to light table but sadly I don't so I have to redo everything if I either much up the paper to much or sometimes when I get too heavy handed.
Yep. My portfolio's still up at http://jcuidado.blogspot.ca. I don't know if that'll help cuz I didn't draw anything memorable haha.
[EDIT] I got in last year btw. It's not the strongest portfolio but I'll leave it up here if you guys want to look through it for reference/self-reassurance.
[EDIT 2] I got around 3.35, I think. More importantly, I got all 3s on everything except a column of 4's (storyboard) and a row of 4's (probably proportion?).
This post here discusses the weighted score system and the importance of doing especially well on the storyboard section.

The man accused of defrauding Mayor Michael Bloomberg in connection with his 2009 mayoral campaign was ordered Wednesday morning to begin a sentence of at least 16 months behind bars.
John Haggerty was convicted in December 2011 of second-degree grand larceny and second-degree money laundering charges.
Haggerty was found guilty of stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from Mayor Bloomberg that was supposed to go toward an Election Day poll watching operation.
The political operative instead used the money to buy a house.
Prior to his court appearance Tuesday, Haggerty had been out on bail pending an appeal.
He was also ordered to pay $750,00 in restitution to Mayor Bloomberg.
Haggerty's attorney says he plans to pursue an appeal with the state's highest court.

Devils fall to Hurricanes, 4-2, for first regulation home loss
NEWARK – The Devils got a taste Tuesday night of how they've made other teams feel so far this season.
For much of the first two periods, the Carolina Hurricanes were the team generating sustained pressure with their forecheck – a Devils staple when they are playing well. And, like the Devils did for much of the time during their five-game winning streak, the Hurricanes won the special-teams battle, netting a pair of power-play goals, including Jiri Tlusty's winner 7:25 into the third period of a 4-2 victory at Prudential Center.
"Through our streak we had won the special-teams battle almost every night, either with a power-play goal or we had shut the other team out with our penalty kill," Devils coach Pete DeBoer said, "and tonight we lost those areas of the game and couldn't recover from that."
It was just the second regulation loss of the season for the Devils (8-2-3) and their first at home (5-1-1).
After sweeping a home-and-home series from Pittsburgh over the weekend, the Devils did not play with the same edge for much of Tuesday's game. They talked beforehand about not having a letdown, but there were varying opinions on whether they let it happen.
"I don't think so," DeBoer insisted. "We talked about that. These two points are the same two points that were on the table in those Pittsburgh games. They're just as important. We lost the special-teams battle tonight and we lost the game."
"It's always hard to come back and play a team that you don't have a rivalry with or they're not close to you in the standings," countered goaltender Martin Brodeur. "But it's a good hockey team over there. We haven't seen them this year and they showed us a lot."
Playing the second game in as many nights and finishing off a six-game trip in which they went 4-1-1, the Hurricanes, coached by former Devil Kirk Muller, impressed the Devils with their energy and forecheck. The Hurricanes built an 8-3 shots-on-goal advantage before the Devils generated some sustained pressure of their own and drew a power play when Jussi Jokinen tripped Ilya Kovalchuk as he was trying to backhand home a Carter rebound with 4:25 left in the period.
The Devils cashed in with Kovalchuk blasting a straight-on point shot over goaltender Cam Ward's right shoulder and under the crossbar with 4:01 left in the period.
The officials did not see the puck go in initially, however, because it bounced out off the bar in the back of the net. So, the Devils had to wait until a stoppage after the Hurricanes iced the puck with 49.6 seconds remaining in the first to be awarded the goal after a video review and the clock was reset to 4:01.

A letter on the Marietta Times May 31 opinion page chastised those she characterized as "irked" at hydraulic fracturing. The writer provided the same information that does not become less misleading because of constant repetition. Actually, horizontal fracturing has not been used at all on the Wayne National Forest or, until fairly recently, anywhere in the Appalachian Basin. The lack of transparency in establishing regulations and in writing legislation that seems to have closely followed the wishes of the companies involved does nothing to reassure those whose safe water supplies would be destroyed should something go wrong. It is easy to deride such concerns if one receives water from a public water supply but if one's water source is from a well or spring, their closer connection to the land and their knowledge of the importance of protecting that water supply at all costs does give them a different perspective and drilling companies would do well to recognize that.
The public does not need to be reminded of the tragedy that occurred just over a year ago in the Gulf of Mexico and news of pipelines leaking thousands of gallons of oil occur on a weekly basis. Accidents happen and we would all be better off if regulations were written to protect the resources and the residents at least equal to the companies involved - and the companies would be better served in the long run.
Just a few months ago the idea that injection wells could cause earthquakes was the source of merriment in some circles. It has happened.
The May 31 letter ends by referring to the potential for newly created jobs. The last thing Appalachia needs is further degradation of its resources. Because of the efforts of USEPA and OEPA, air quality is improving. While, to date anyway, no one claims the mercury and other air pollutants are making our children brighter and healthier, there is still denial that potential job creators are bypassing this area because of such environmental concerns. The chemical industry moved into the valley 60 years ago because of the water quantity and quality. It would be foolhardy to take a chance with such an important resource.
CYTEC owns an industrial site on East Greene St. that has been closed for a number of years. While it was in operation, waste materials were disposed of more casually than would be permitted today. The methods used were acceptable at that time and the expense of cleaning up has been and will continue to be borne by current owners. If someone had suggested air and water quality were at risk (assuming analytical methods would have been available to test for the very small quantities required to make whole bodies of water unusable) such suggestions would probably have been scorned. Now, a community panel has been established by CYTEC to help determine what level of clean-up is acceptable after hundreds of thousands of dollars have already been expended. Wouldn't it be fine if that ounce of prevention had been used?
The Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District is to be congratulated. They listened to concerned residents and they have asked the U.S. Geological Survey to investigate the amount of water that may be withdrawn from the Conservancy lakes without detrimental effect to the ecosystem. The attention to public concern, the request for science-based information and the transparency combine to be an example government bodies would be better to follow.
Gas and oil have been trapped in the deep shales for millions of years (with the exception of that which has migrated upward into other formations) and it is not going to disappear tomorrow. The unholy haste to extract that gas and oil does nothing to reassure those concerned about the future economic well-being of the area. The market can absorb only so much oil and gas at a time so there is time to take the long view and make sure its extraction is done safely. The value will only increase. Methods have improved just in the short time this new boom has existed and they will continue to improve as long as there is a need.
If this technology had been known 30 years ago, would there be anything left now? The history of resource extraction is to extract and move on and leave the community to clean up the resulting damaged and, in many cases, unusable land. Is it any surprise that people are concerned about the land, long term economic development and the availability of natural resources for future generations?

Are You a Spending Optimist?
You want to find success, right? I mean big success. Not the kind that is just surviving, but the kind that can catapult your results overnight like the next person featured in INC magazine – and you're willing to do whatever it takes.
The Internal Obliques and Central Zone Core Stabilization
We often neglect the role of the internal obliques in central zone core stabilization. Why? It takes a backseat to the more trendy and popular research on the transvere abdominis; it rarely, if ever hurts, so people don't consider it a problem.
Reviewing Posture Correction Strategies: Research and Recommendations
A bad posture is one of the more common complaints I see in my office. In a previous article [Aug. 1, 2013], I looked at the impact of a slouched posture, and identified the key contributors of a slouched posture that can create pain or dysfunction.
How to Conduct a Basic SEO Audit of Your Practice
The importance of search-engine optimization (SEO) for businesses and professionals continues to grow with each passing year. According to a recent survey by Conductor Inc., six out of 10 companies expect to increase their SEO staff this year.
Elastic Therapeutic Taping for the Lumbar Spine
Elastic therapeutic taping is a therapeutic approach rapidly gaining popularity in the chiropractic profession. It is a natural complement to adjustments and other adjunctive therapies and rehabilitation for common patient conditions such as low back pain.
Accuracy of Vitamin D Test for Patients With Dark Skin Questioned
Up until the turn of the century, vitamin D did not get a great deal of attention compared to other vitamins.
Diet With a Purpose
Each patient is unique and as such, has varying needs based on the individual's genetics and current state of health.
Does Chiropractic Have an Answer for Recurrent Ankle Sprains?
Is there a measurable reason why an athlete will sprain an ankle with a turning activity that has been done thousands of times before with no trauma?
New Knee, New Pain: Enter Chiropractic (Part 1)
Total knee arthroplasty is a common surgical procedure for providing pain relief and improved function in patients who have severe knee arthritis.
Supplements That Treat Neuropathies (Part 2)
In part 1 of this article, I outlined the key role played by various vitamins in the management of various types of neuropathies.
Asymmetrical Pronation: Effect on Adjustments
When your patients don't respond as well as expected to their chiropractic adjustments, oftentimes there is a source of interference in the pedal foundation – asymmetrical pronation.
Ever Heard of the Lateral Raphé?
We have all had acute patients enter our offices listing laterally to the side at the level of the lumbar spine or expressing pain on lateral lumbar bending.
Diagnosing Flexion-Intolerant Lower Back Pain (Part 2): Exercise Rehab
One of the things that has puzzled us for years is the presentation of the flexion-intolerant patient. We have realized there is a large overlap with sacroiliac indicators. In acute lumbar pain, the SI often twists, subluxes, goes haywire.
Managing Hallux Hypomobility Disorders (Part 2)
In part one of this series we discussed the unique properties and significance of the first toe in the propulsive phase of gait. In particular, we discussed the importance of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ).
Rallying For Chiropractic
The west coast province of British Columbia is home to approximately 4.4 million people, half of which have tried chiropractic at least once in their life.

This afternoon, I was the final speaker on the final day of a three day course titled Ultrasound/Women's Imaging. This was a conference for physicians, primarily radiologists, and others who work with mammograms, breast ultrasounds, and breast MRIs. Since I have given a lot of talks in my life, I have been assigned some difficult time slots (e.g. right after a big lunch), but being the very last speaker seemed especially daunting.
Since it has been sunny and beautiful today in Boston, and since the city is especially alive with Patriots' Day and tomorrow's Boston Marathon, I was amazed that anyone stayed in the large windowless ballroom to listen to me. The course took place at the Long Wharf Marriott, right on the harbor, so there were many competing activities nearby.
To my surprise, everyone, who was there when I arrived, stayed. Very frankly, physicians are not always eager to sit and listen to a social worker's presentation. I had been asked to speak about psychosocial issues for women with breast cancer and had prepared a talk with Powerpoint slides. The slides had been submitted some weeks ago and were in attendees' binders. At the very last moment, I decided to give a completely different talk--figuring that they were unlikely to yank me off the stage once I was standing there
So, I spoke instead about my own experience with two breast cancers, continuing to work with other women with breast cancer. It was a talk I have given before, but usually to breast cancer survivors--not to tired doctors. Here is the really good news for us all: they were visibly moved, many to tears. I don't say that to compliment my own speech, but rather to reassure us all that our doctors, even the radiologists who read our mammograms and MRIs, really care. Many spoke to me afterwards, thanking me for the reminder of the women behind the films. It is beneficial for us all, doctors and patients, to remember our shared humanity and feelings.

CHAPTER I.INTRODUCTION.*Political Economy is at once a science and an art. The value of the science has for its efficient cause and measure, its subserviency to the art.† According to the principle of utility in every branch of the art of legislation, the object or end in view should be the production of the maximum of happiness in a given time in the community in question. In the instance of this branch of the art, the object or end in view should be the production of that maximum of happiness, in so far as this more general end is promoted by the production of the maximum of wealth and the maximum of population. The practical questions, therefore, are—How far the measures respectively suggested by these two branches of the common end agree?—how far they differ, and which requires the preference?—how far the end in view is best promoted by individuals acting for themselves? and in what cases these ends may be best promoted by the hands of government? Those cases in which, and those measures or operations by which, the end is promoted by individuals acting for themselves, and without any special interference exercised with this special view on the part of government, beyond the distribution made and maintained, and the protection afforded by the civil and penal branches of the law, may be said to arise sponte acta. What the legislator and the minister of the interior have it in their power to do towards increase either of wealth or population, is as nothing in comparison with what is done of course, and without thinking of it, by the judge, and his assistant the minister of police. The cases in which, and the measures by which, the common end may be promoted by the hands of government, may be termed agenda. With the view of causing an increase to take place in the mass of national wealth, or with a view to increase of the means either of subsistence or enjoyment, without some special reason, the general rule is, that nothing ought to be done or attempted by government. The motto, or watchword of government, on these occasions, ought to be—Be quiet. For this quietism there are two main reasons:—1. Generally speaking, any interference for this purpose on the part of government is needless. The wealth of the whole community is composed of the wealth of the several individuals belonging to it taken together. But to increase his particular portion is, generally speaking, among the constant objects of each individual's exertions and care. Generally speaking, there is no one who knows what is for your interest, so well as yourself—no one who is disposed with so much ardour and constancy to pursue it. 2. Generally speaking, it is moreover likely to be pernicious, viz. by being unconducive, or even obstructive, with reference to the attainment of the end in view. Each individual bestowing more time and attention upon the means of preserving and increasing his portion of wealth, than is or can be bestowed by government, is likely to take a more effectual course than what, in his instance and on his behalf, would be taken by government. It is, moreover, universally and constantly pernicious in another way, by the restraint or constraint imposed on the free agency of the individual. Pain is the general concomitant of the sense of such restraint, wherever it is experienced. Without being productive of such coercion, and thereby of such pain—in a way more or less direct—more or less perceptible, with this or any other view, the interposition of government can hardly take place. If the coercion be not applied to the very individual whose conduct is endeavoured to be made immediately subservient to this purpose, it is at any rate applied to others—indeed, to the whole community taken together. In coercive measures, so called, it is only to the individual that the coercion is applied. In the case of measures of encouragement, the field of coercion is vastly more extensive. Encouragements are grants of money or money's worth, applied in some shape or other to this purpose. But for this, any more than any other purpose, money is not raised but by taxes, and taxes are the produce of coercive laws applied to the most coercive purpose. This would not be the less true, though the individual pieces of money thus applied happened to come from a source which had not been fed by any such means. In all communities, by far the greatest share of the money disposed of by government being supplied by taxes, whether this or that particular portion of money so applied, be supplied from that particular source, makes no sort of difference. To estimate the good expected from the application of any particular mass of government money, compare it always with the mischief produced by the extraction of an equal sum of money by the most burthensome species of tax; since, by forbearing to make application of that sum of money, you might forbear levying the amount of that same sum of money by that tax, and thereby forbear imposing the mass of burthen that results from it. It would, however, be a gross error, and an extremely mischievous one, to refer to the defalcation thus resulting from the mass of liberty or free agency, as affording a conclusive objection against the interposition of the law for this or any other purpose. Every law which does not consist in the repeal, total or partial, of a coercive law, is itself a coercive law. To reprobate as a mischief resulting from this or that law, a property which is of the very essence of all law, is to betray a degree of blindness and ignorance one should think hardly possible on the part of a mind accustomed to the contemplation of any branch of the system of laws—a total unacquaintance with what may be called the logic of the laws. Yet so imperfect is the state of legal knowledge,—marks of this perfectly surprising, as it will one day be, as well as much to be lamented ignorance, are to be found among the most experienced pens, not to mention the most loquacious tongues. Power, knowledge* or intelligence, and inclination: where these requisites concur on the part of him on whom the production of the desirable effect in question depends, it is produced; when any one of them is wanting, it is not produced. When these requisites exist already in perfection with reference to the production of any effect operating in addition to the mass of wealth on the part of the members of the community taken respectively in their individual capacities, it will be produced without the interference of the government; and as this interference is never a matter of pure indifference,—never otherwise than hurtful when it is not beneficial, these cases are among the cases in which that interference is not desirable. In the cases where any one of these requisites is deficient, insomuch that for want of it the effect cannot be produced,—in such case the interposition of government may be desirable or not, according to the state of the account—according as the inconveniences attached to the measures in which the interposition of government consists, preponderate or fail of preponderating over the advantage attached to the effect which it is proposed should be produced. If the effect fail of being produced without the interposition of government for want of any one or more of these requisites, it is by the supply of the requisite or requisites so wanting that the action of government may display itself. Thence, on every such occasion, these questions present themselves for consideration:— 1. Whether the effect in question fail of being produced in the degree in which it might be produced? 2. To the want of what requisite or requisites such failure is to be ascribed? 3. What are the means by which such failure may be supplied by government at the least expense? 4. When reduced to its least dimensions, is the expense necessary for the purpose in question such that the advantage will preponderate over the expense? In a general view of the three requisites, inclination appears least apt to be deficient on the part of individuals. The general mass of national wealth is composed of the particular masses appertaining to individuals. On the part of the individual there is seldom any deficiency in respect of inclination to make addition to the amount of that particular mass of wealth which has fallen to his share. It is in respect to the two other requisites, power and intelligence, that deficiency is much more apt to take place. To these deficiencies the abilities of government are happily adapted. Inclination it could not give—it has not power to give it in the great mass of cases:—not by punishments, on account of the expensiveness, and in such cases the comparative inefficacy of such means;—not by reward, for want of a sufficient stock of that scarce and valuable matter which is not to be extracted but by taxes—that is, by punishments. Intelligence and power may be administered by government at a much cheaper rate. A mite of reward, skilfully applied, is often sufficient to produce an immensity of intelligence. In many instances, it frequently requires nothing more than the removal of coercion from one hand to another, or even the repeal of it altogether, in order to confer the sort and degree of requisite power;* the operation, in either case, not being attended, in the shape of pain, with any perceptible effect. The two most extensive descriptions of the cases in which it is necessary or expedient to interfere for the purpose of regulating the exertions of individuals in respect to the increase of wealth, are those in which it is necessary to regulate the pursuit of the several objects in view, according to the order of their importance:—in giving to the matter of wealth that modification which adapts it to the several purposes of subsistence and defence—security in respect of subsistence, and security in respect of defence—in preference to that which adapts it to the mere purpose of enjoyment. With few exceptions, and those not very considerable ones, the attainment of the maximum of enjoyment will be most effectually secured by leaving each individual to pursue his own maximum of enjoyment, in proportion as he is in possession of the means. Inclination in this respect will not be wanting on the part of any one. Power, the species of power applicable to this case—viz. wealth, pecuniary power—could not be given by the hand of government to one, without being taken from another; so that by such interference there would not be any gain of power upon the whole. The gain to be produced in this article by the interposition of government, respects principally the head of knowledge. There are cases in which, for the benefit of the public at large, it may be in the power of government to cause this or that portion of knowledge to be produced and diffused, which, without the demand for it produced by government, would either not have been produced, or would not have been diffused. We have seen above the grounds on which the general rule in this behalf—Be quiet—rests. Whatever measures, therefore, cannot be justified as exceptions to that rule, may be considered as non agenda on the part of government.† The art, therefore, is reduced within a small compass: security and freedom are all that industry requires. The request which agriculture, manufactures, and commerce present to governments, is modest and reasonable as that which Diogenes made to Alexander: "Stand out of my sunshine." We have no need of favour—we require only a secure and open path. [* ]Some parts of the following work were formerly published as the fourth Book of the work entitled Rationale of Reward:—they are now inserted in the places they were originally designed to occupy in Bentham's Manual of Political Economy.—Ed. [† ]To Adam Smith, the science alone has been the direct and constant object in view: the art the collateral and occasional one. [* ]Knowledge may be considered as a branch of power. It is power so far as it depends upon the mental condition of the party whose power is in question. Power, in the narrower sense of the word, depends upon the state and condition of external objects—objects exterior with reference to him. [* ]Supplying capital is supplying power. Capital might be supplied in England by taking off, quoad hoc, the restraints imposed on the accumulation of capital by partnership. [† ]Among these several classes, agenda, sponte acta, and non-agenda, the distribution of the imaginable stock of institutions will differ in a very considerable degree, according to the different circumstances of the several political communities. In regard to defalcations from general opulence for the security of subsistence, an arrangement of that sort which in one country may be at once needful and practicable, may in another be either not needful, or, what is more apt to be the case, not practicable. The greater the degree of opulence, the greater the list of sponte acta—the less, therefore, that of agenda. In England, abundance of useful things are done by individuals, which in other countries are done either by government, or not at all. Docks, harbours, canals, roads; institutions for relief against misfortune in a variety of shapes, and from a variety of causes—bodily affliction, death of friends, fire, hostile captures, and criminal depredation. In Russia, under Peter the Great, the list of sponte acta being a blank, that of agenda was proportionally abundant. |

It gushed heavily, not a surprise from this brewery, but it is once again disappointing when the yeast gets completely agitated upon opening and you lose a couple ounces. Nose is really nice and enticing, showing notes of caramel, fruit, vanilla, wood. Flavor is juicy, well balanced between the sweetness and fruitiness of the original beer and the apple brandy wood. Really nice stuff. Once again though, whats with the gushing?

Purchased in a take-out store in Brooklyn. Served in a balloon glass.
Golden Delicious is Captain Lawrence's Xtra Gold that is aged in barrels once used for Laird's Apple Brandy, then dry-hopped with Amarillo. The beer pours a crisp, clear gold that shows off abundant carbonation. The pure white head sits firmly on top, two-fingers thick, and compacts to a rich mousse-like texture. A very fine looking ale! Careful not to pour the dregs in! Scars of lacing are left behind as the beer is consumed.
The aroma is as advertised: a Golden Delicious apple. The smell is sweet and rich, with a big bouquet of oak, apple skin, brandy/muscat grapes, melon, and slight vanilla. The tripel qualities might be a bit drowned out here, but the barrel qualities seem to be well-proportioned.
As in the aroma, the apple brandy qualities stand out a lot. Up front is a muscat grape flavor, mixed with apple brandy, and some sweet malts and wheat. Across the palate is a strong oakiness that gives the flavor a rich quality that works well against the backdrop of a bittersweet tripel base. And on the swallow there is a strong hit of alcohol. It isn't hot though. The body is medium and the carbonation is just perfect. The lack of heat is quite remarkable, and it drinks ever so smoothly.
I really like this beer. It reminds me a bit of Allagash Curieux, with the barrel-aged tripel thing going on, but with a completely different barrel type and with a big resulting difference. It comes together well, and I could see splitting another bottle of this with friends.

triple aged in apple brandy barrels, an overwhelming success. this pours like a triple should, light and bright, with a fading white head and some slowly rising bubbles. tons of green apple character on the nose from the brandy, very fresh and autumnal. smells hot too, almost like a spirit more than a beer. complex but subtle grain profile, some oats likely in here giving it a round body and a smoothness thats just awesome. i dont get a lot of classically belgian yeast at all, but i go get very intense apple flavors from the brandy, not too too sweet, just right. a long fruity finish is a nice way to cap this brew off, very well done overall. medium body but the residual sugar makes it drink a little heavy. they have gotten a lot of influence from the interesting barrel here, this is unique and delicious. a style that doesnt get much barrel attention but this proves it should probably command some more.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Pale straw with lots of snowy legs.
Brandy nose: caramel, booze, apple, and wood.
Saltines, some white pepper, citrus bite, yellow apple skin esters, and hints of vanilla and Sauternes.
Grapefruit zest finish.
Medium, chewy, fizzy, a bit hot.
After a year, there's still some heat and the Amarillo is all but gone. Apples are there, though, and light enough sipper for the strength. Saruman says it would be better heated up.
Hits the concept, but does that matter?

Pours hazy cloudy light orange with a foamy and somewhat rocky head. Be careful of the overpour because it will give you too much head. Nose is defined by the essence of apples, as if you opened a real hard cider, not sweetness just apple-ness. Flavor up front is very offensive from the alcohols, but as it breathes it becomes relatively malty with slight sweetness. Alcohols subside into a better balance after breathing. Hard to taste the apples, to be honest but it is a very approachable Tripel for flavor. Overall, enjoyable and I would have again, which is not what I could say for many other Tripels.

What exactly is wrong with your immune system? What test results do you have? Have you actually measured your adrenals with and without exercise?
My immune system sucks too but I doubt you have the same problem. I have pan-CD3 lymphopenia. The only "hack" I found recently is ibuprofen 100mg 5x/day. It keeps the fatigue at bay and enables more exercise. Most people think of ibuprofen as an anti-inflammatory but it also boosts TNF in the periphery.
