Yet even with nothing on the line than the chance to avoid the first losing season in nearly a decade, the Steelers found a way to beat the Browns. Pittsburgh's top-ranked defense forced four turnovers and Roethlisberger hit Antonio Brown, Plaxico Burress and Leonard Pope for scores.
"I said earlier in the week that we wanted to come out and finish the year with a win and have a good feeling going into the offseason," Roethlisberger said. "That is what we did. I'm proud of the way the guys finish."
Cleveland's mistakes marred an otherwise steady NFL debut third-string quarterback, Thaddeus Lewis, who completed 22 of 32 passes for 204 yards with a touchdown and an interception. The Browns outgained Pittsburgh 320-212 but were undone by Lewis' ill-timed pass right into the hands of Steelers safety Troy Polamalu and three fumbles — two in Cleveland territory.
"We just need to find a way to win, stats mean nothing," Browns linebacker Craig Robertson said. "You have two columns, wins and losses. That's all that matters."
That's all that matters to Haslam, who made a splash when he purchased the Browns earlier this season. The former Steelers minority owner wants to build Cleveland into a contender, which hasn't been consistently competitive in two decades.
Shurmur insists the building blocks are in place and for a brief stretch this season the Browns looked as if they had turned a corner. Cleveland put together a three-game winning streak spanning late November and early December that had some doing the complicated math necessary to put the Browns in the playoffs.
The optimism died just as quickly as it arose. Cleveland came back to earth in a 38-21 whipping at the hands of the Washington Redskins two weeks ago, followed by a blowout loss in Denver. Given a chance to sweep their biggest rivals for the first time in 24 years, the Browns instead lost to the Steelers in the regular-season finale for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
The changes in Pittsburgh won't be so widespread, but with an aging roster and salary cap issues. Nose tackle Casey Hampton, linebacker Larry Foote, offensive tackle Max Starks and wide receiver Mike Wallace are among those who will be free agents.
"You want everybody back but you know that is not what is going to happen," Roethlisberger said.
The Steelers insisted they wanted to end a miserable December with some dignity but hardly appeared interested during most of the first half. Playing in a rare meaningless finale, Pittsburgh sputtered for long stretches in front of the smallest crowd in Heinz Field's 12-year history. The Steelers needed more than a quarter to pick up a first down as Roethlisberger struggled to stay comfortable.

Reviews for Golden Chocolate Cake(1)
Sort By :
I prepared this cake and it came out GREAT! Again, I DID make adjustments to suit my own individual tastes! What I'd done was use a 3.4-oz size of "candy cane" flavor Jello Instant pudding mix instead of the vanilla instant pudding mix and I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract. I also added 2 Tbsp. of all-purpose flour to prevent the chocolate chips & candy bar pieces from sinking down into cake! What I also had done was use three Hershey ALMOND bars-1.45-oz. each, chopped in my food processor! Instead of using 1 cup chopped pecans, I used 1-1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut and 1/2 cup chopped pecans! I tested cake at 50 minutes and found that I DID need to bake it 10 more minutes which I did. I did cool 15 minutes in the pan before turning out to cool on wire rack completely! Thank you, Kay Hansen, for this recipe! Dawn E. Lowenstein

I hope everybody understands the magnitude of the scandal caused by our local Republican party when they protested the Catholic nuns in Marietta last month. This unfortunate incident has "gone viral" and portrays Marietta as a hateful community. Over half a million people have watched the video of Marietta citizens harassing six elderly Catholic nuns with nasty disgusting signs. Regrettably, the Marietta "Attack on Nuns" story has been featured by several national religious news services including the National Catholic Reporter and ReligionNews.com. It has also been covered by NPR, Huffington Post, Columbus Dispatch, Prospect.org, Cleveland Plain Dealer, CNN, and many other news web-sites and newspapers. What a terrible representation of our wonderful community!
One religious web-site has collected over 20,000 signatures from across the country for a petition to condemn the Marietta protest. The petition signers include thousands of Catholics and numerous nuns and priests. Many have left loving messages for the Catholic Sisters and words of shame for the people of Marietta.
This has to stop. There are no politics important enough to excuse what happened in Marietta on Oct. 15. Please tell our local Republican leaders to simply admit they made a mistake and issue an apology to the six Catholic Nuns. We also call on Congressman Bill Johnson to apologize for allowing his congressional office and staff to help facilitate the protest against the nuns.
The Nuns on the Bus is a national network of Catholic Sisters who provide a voice for the poor in these troubled economic times. They have visited hundreds of towns across America and have encountered only one protest - in Marietta.

Welcome to our JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes team page!
We're taking steps to help JDRF progressively remove the impact of type 1 diabetes (T1D) from people's lives until no one has to fear developing this disease. By joining our Walk to Cure Diabetes team and making a donation to JDRF, you'll raise money to help fund critical T1D research and create a world without T1D.
Type 1 diabetes is a life-threatening autoimmune disease in which a person's pancreas stops producing insulin. It strikes both children and adults suddenly and changes life as they know it forever. It cannot be prevented and there is no cure.
JDRF is the only global organization with a strategic research plan to fight T1D. Every dollar JDRF is able to direct toward research comes from donors like you.
The challenge we've set ourselves - to raise money for JDRF and to walk - is modest compared to the daily challenges of life with T1D, which involves a 24/7, unrelenting cycle of blood sugar testing and insulin injections to manage the disease.
Will you accept the challenge to make a difference by walking with us? Just click on the "Join this Team" button, make a donation, and start fundraising.
Thank you for your support, and we'll see you on Walk day!

While J.C. Penney and Macy's fight over exclusive rights to Martha Stewart's personal brand of cookware, kitchen utensils, sheets and towels in court, the Hallmark Channel–home to The Martha Stewart Show since 2010–has been talking with Marie Osmond about a new daily show, Fox News reported.
Earlier this month, the Post reported that Martha would not be renewed next season. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia and the Hallmark Channel separately explained that although Martha would not return in the same form in the same place, the two companies were exploring a new format.
But back to this Marie character. Country-pop singer, 52, sister of Donny, one-half of the Donny and Marie variety show. Star in the Dancing with the Stars-sense. More than qualified to have her own daytime cable show. But what makes them think she can replace Martha?
Martha Stewart's first cookbook taught us how to cater our own wedding. Marie Osmond lost 50 pounds on Nutrisystem. Martha Stewart wrote an encyclopedia of crafting; Marie Osmond has a line of quilter's sewing machines. Martha Stewart ran a billion dollar company; Marie Osmond sold dolls on QVC. Does anyone even know how organized Ms. Osmond's closets are?
Then it occurred to us: Marie Osmond is a Mormon. Nice try, Latter-day Saints. Powerful though you may be, it's going to take a little more than quilts and dolls to convince us Mormonism is aspirational and Mitt Romney is a "good thing."
I think Marie would be a wonderful talk show host. She is a kind and respectful lady. She inspires people to be happy and beautiful. What's wrong with that??? Besides….alot of ladies actually like the doll and quilt industry, not to mentiond the music industry. No, Marie is no Martha…but then again, Martha is no Marie.
If they wanted Martha, they'd keep Martha. Marie is a separate person with her own merits. She is a brilliant entertainer who can read audiences and respond. Also – seems to me – Tiger Beat was publishing Marie's recipes long before anyone heard of Martha. As a mother of 8, Marie knows her way around a kitchen, a sewing machine, and home decorating. She's learned costume and set design all her life.
Marie is HOT! enough said.
Why the negativity about Marie's religion? I wonder if you really know much about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
Never been a fan of Martha, and avoid ANY products with her name. Don't know much about Marie, but the fact that it's considered "okay" for a newspaper to knock any religion (isn't that a right we all share?) makes me want her hired. I hope they film it in Utah instead of your obviously biased state.
Kat, I guess you don't know many (scratch that…any) Mormons. You should really get to know us on a personal level before you write another article mentioning us. I've had many people surprised that I'm not anything like what they were taught a Mormon was like. I urge you to search on LinkedIn for someone who went to BYU, reach out to them and find out for yourself. BTW not all Mormons support Mitt, and we are all okay with that.
"Why, thank you Kat for the compliment!" Members of the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter day Saints ARE, powerful CHRISTIAN people … [yes we are !] And… if you are looking for "aspiration" look no further than your local pair of Mormon Missionaries dressed in white shirts and ties, coming soon to a neighborhood near you! [Quilts and dolls - optional]
As for MITT ROMNEY…… step up and CHEER him on! You will see Kat, if he is our new President of these United States, he will be the BEST thing that has ever happened to this country, to you and I, and to the rest of the freedom loving people of the U.S. of A!He is SMART, he is HONEST, he is GENUINE, he is DIPLOMATIC, he is RELIABLE, he is COMPASSIONATE, and he "is" the definition of INTEGRITY, – and – "DOG-GONE-IT" people like him! "No Kat, MITT ROMNEY isn't a "good" thing… HE IS A GREAT thing!"
I am not related to him, I have never met him, but I will tell you this… As he is a CHRISTIAN member of the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, (as am I), his beliefs, (and mine), are to follow the example of our Savior, Jesus Christ, and strive to do good works/deads in all that we do. We are honest Christ loving people, and…. "HEY", by the way wouldn't you say Marie looks purr-it-ty darn good for 52 years old? And don't you worry about Martha, another network will pick her up… eventually -
"Martha would not be renewed next season" was leaked by Hallmark and Michelle Vicary, evp programming while "in discussions." It certainly follows that the Hallmark brand and Hallmark cards won't be "renewed" by loyal Martha viewers and fans.
Hallmark "has been talking with Marie about a new daily show" that will be cancelled by Hallmark in no time in their wild goose ratings chase.
"What makes them think she can replace Martha?" Martha was Hallmark's last best chance for transformation to a channel with future viability.

The Texas Woodworkers Shows is a LLC that was created to support a group of woodworkers who make and distribute wooden toys to children in need, at no cost to the children. This group has provided between 3,000 and 5,000 toys annually and the entrance fees to our shows are dedicated to supporting this program. In addition to our show receipts, The Texas Woodworkers Shows has a series of events designed to raise the needed funds for the toymaking. While all labor is provided free of charge, the cost of materials, equipment, facilities, and distribution must be addressed.
Welcome! In addition to this website, you can contact the Texas Woodworkers Show at 3614 Thistle St., Houston, TX or by phone: 713-503-2284
Currently The Texas Woodworkers Shows is conducting a golf tournament to support our on-going costs. The tournament is held at the Country Place Golf Club in Pearland, Texas and it is anticipated that the proceeds will cover the costs of materials for the 2013 program.
The Texas Woodworkers Shows is an LLC designed to provide shows where wood craftsmen/women can exhibit and sell their works. Each show will be independently presented and the exhibitor/sellers will vary from show to show. While the Texas Woodworkers Shows features artists and craftsmen working primarily in wood, there will be instances where the products contain components made from other materials.
While every effort is made to insure that the products offered at each show are handcrafted by the presenting artists, no guarantees can be made by Texas Woodworkers Shows. As technology increasingly enters the realm of woodworking it is envariable that there will be products offered that are not completely handmade but reflects the artist's use of these technologies.
If you have an interest in being a part of any of our shows, please contact us to make all arrangements. We will need to know what product(s) you will offer for sale, the price range for your products, and what show(s) you are interested in participating in. We welcome all woodworkers and strive to have a variety of artists/craftsmen at each show. While there will be some duplicate products offered, we will limit the number of exhibitors offering the same or similar products to protect the individual exhibitors. Assignments will be made on a first-come / first served basis.
The idea behind the series of Texas Woodworkers Shows began with the effort of the Woodworkers Club of Houston and their Toy Project. The slideshow below shows some highlights of that program.

U20s - Not Much Time to Bask |
National Teams - Age-Grade Men |
Canada coach Mike Shelley said he got what he wanted out of the game – he got to see some players and how they work together; he got to test some players in an international. Win or lose? Not so much an issue. "I think the same thing," said USA Coach Scott Lawrence. "I had the same goals as Mike did - have a look at specific players for selection. I think we both ticked that box." Lawrence and his staff spent Wednesday night analyzing game film and putting together individual player reports. They have precious little time to rebound and play another game on Saturday, so sleep is out the window. "We picked out some pretty glaring things we need to correct," said Lawrence. "They are mostly technical things, which is fine. We can correct those. One of the things we really try to do is get the team culture and the aggression levels right, so we will be working on that." The aggression level is an interesting one. Lawrence doesn't want players to just show up at rucks or tackles, he wants aggression controlled, but thorough. "In the past, particular up front, our guys have had it taken it to us," said the coach. "When you're tackling someone, you need to finish a guy off. If you're the second guy in, you need to finish it off. In this game we started to see tackles go from even contests to ones where we had more control. And at the rucks, we put pressure on them every time, and that was good." Out in the backs, cohesion isn't perfect. The Junior All Americans have some talented players upon which to rely – Kingsley McGowan is fast and difficult to tackle, and he scored three tries; Tanner Barnes is just hard to line up to hit; Pase Iosia is a guy who can make anyone miss in close quarters; Madison Hughes picks smart lines. But … "We made a lot of our line breaks came on first phase," said Lawrence. "But we've got some work to do in terms of connection. We came into camp pretty dinged up so it was tough to work on the backs and I think we made some mistakes there. But our backs are dynamic and we do have talent there, and from an attacking perspective our backs are improving." The players and coaches were very happy to win. Beating Canada in Canada at any level is a big deal. But this is just the first game of a season that will soon move to the Junior World Rugby Trophy in Utah. "We know that this isn't the end result," said Lawrence. "The players don't have any illusions along those lines, either. They are getting it and getting the culture – they are starting to think, 'what can I do to get better?'" Thursday will be a light day on the field but still a busy one. The players will go through recovery in the morning followed by a morning film session. After lunch, more film, and then some fun activities to lighten the mood. Studying film isn't always easy, but it's crucial in a short turnaround, said Lawrence. The players played Wednesday, and really only have Friday to do any on-field work before playing against Saturday. "The most important thing now is to absorb the film and get fresh legs," said Lawrence. The Junior All Americans will make changes for Saturday, mostly to see other players in action but also to make a few changes on performance. Lawrence is looking to cut this squad in time for the JWRT. That's all serious business, but perhaps over breakfast, the players can bask a little bit, too. They did, after all, beat the Canadians on their own turf, and that is always fun. |

► H. pylori contact with host cells induces membrane phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization ► Binding to membrane-externalized PS initiates H. pylori CagA oncoprotein delivery into cells ► Delivered CagA is tethered to the plasma membrane inner leaflet via interaction with PS ► CagA-PS interaction is required for polarity-dependent CagA activity
When delivered into gastric epithelial cells via type IV secretion, Helicobacter pylori CagA perturbs host cell signaling and thereby promotes gastric carcinogenesis. However, the mechanisms of CagA delivery, localization, and action remain poorly understood. We show that direct contact of H. pylori with epithelial cells induces externalization of the inner leaflet enriched host phospholipid, phosphatidylserine, to the outer leaflet of the host plasma membrane. CagA, which is exposed on the bacterial surface via type IV secretion, interacts with the externalized phosphatidylserine to initiate its entry into cells. CagA delivery also requires energy-dependent host cell processes distinct from known endocytic pathways. Within polarized epithelial cells, CagA is tethered to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane through interaction with phosphatidylserine and binds the polarity-regulating host kinase PAR1/MARK to induce junctional and polarity defects. Thus, host membrane phosphatidylserine plays a key role in the delivery, localization, and pathophysiological action of CagA.

Bolasie: I'm a Crystal Palace player and I am happy
10:24am Thursday 30th January 2014 in Crystal Palace By Tim Ashton
Yannick Bolasie has no intention of leaving Selhurst Park despite admitting to being "flattered" by interest from Europe.
The 24-year-old has been enjoying a run in the Eagles team, helping them climb out of the Premier League bottom three.
His pace and trickery has been attracting the attentions of clubs in Germany, Italy and France - as well as Premier League rivals - but the DR Congo international insists he is happy in south east London.
He said: "Obviously I was flattered by the interest but I'm a Palace player and I'm happy here. Now I want to try and help us stay in the Premier League.
"It's been a bit stop-start for me this season but now I'm coming into my stride and hopefully I can start scoring more goals and setting up more goals."

Yep. You are correct. Sorry about that. I downloaded the update when it first came out, and installed it fine. I had a problem with the machine's hostname changing, which caused iChat (jabberd) to gack. But figured out that was due to the way I am using split DNS. A 'changeip' fixed it and I am running 10.6.5 just fine on my server now. I have no idea where it disappeared to. I would expect it back within days.MBP 15 i7, Powerbook G4, iMac 20, Mini OS X Server, 32gig iPhone4, Mac OS X (10.6.5)

Hi Folks,
We have deployed 10.6.5 to 8 production servers here without issue, including OD, DNS, etc.We are NOT using SSL for our OD, so that may be something to look at.
Is everyone having issues with OD using SSL?
All that said, it looks like I won't be updating our mail server until the dovecot issue is resolved.

I updated a 10.6.4 server to 10.6.5.
The server is open directory master, and yes, there were huge problems with the following symptoms :
- LDAP server broken
- directory services process using more than 100% cpu
If I checked a directory services log, there was the following error :
Misconfiguration detected in hash 'Global SID'
Group 'com.apple.sharepoint.group.5' (/Local/Default) - ID 406
Group 'com.apple.accessremoteae' (/Local/Default) - ID 406
So there was a duplicate not in the LDAP configuration but in the local users directory : a duplicate of ID 406.
As I didn't have time to restore all server from backup, I was able to delete the duplicate ID, restore directory services from backup, and then it came back to normal.
Other services were not touche, but I don't use email services.
DNS was not broken.

Loading... Before the frost (original 2002; edition 2009)by Henning Mankell, Cassandra Campbell, Ebba Segerberg (Translator)
Work detailsBefore the Frost by Henning Mankell (2002)
None. Loading...
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Other reviewers have covered many of my perceptions about this book. It is my least favourite of all his books and only finished it because I generally like Henning Mankell's work. The religous people gone mad has been over worked by too many authors. The character of Linda Wallender is a bit thin plus the idea that she would be stationed to work in the police station where her father works is highly unlikely. The next hurdle is that she becomes involved in an investigation before she officially starts work as a police officer is just too much to accept. I like Mankell, but this book seems to have fallen into the "Silence-of-the-Lambs-Syndrome" that seems to have become endemic. It's not enough to have someone get killed in the heat of passion or for greed. Now killers have to have killed hundreds, kill animals, butcher little children, bring about the end of the world, etc., etc. I hate to break it to these authors, but evil is much more prosaic and often very subtle. You don't have to create monsters to write intelligently. Adolf Eichmann was the guy next door who was just really good at paperwork. OK, enough ranting. Just how much do we know about our close friends; even our family. That might be one theme of this Wallender novel. Linda Wallender takes center stage. Two threads start the book: a man is setting swans alight and Anna, Linda's friend has disappeared shortly after insisting she has just seen her father who hasn't been heard from in 25 years. A third strand is added when a woman whose life's work has been to explore and catalog old pilgrim trails disappears, only to be found dismembered in a small cabin in the woods. It's not too hard to predict that those threads will all wind together soon. Kurt and Linda are equally irascible but have worked out a precarious truce. Linda, recent graduate of the police academy, hasn't been yet assigned to begin work at a station so she spends her time trying to track down Anna. Wallender is a harsh father who has trouble relating to his daughter and she has little patience with her father although both try to find an accommodation as Linda, with the curiosity of a seasoned detective, inserts herself into her father's formal investigation, much to his dismay and irritation. [SPOILER: well,hardly a spoiler since it's revealed way early, and if you read the book's description there are spoilers out the wazoo, but...] The best parts of the book are investigative; the worst the insertion of Jim Jones and his relationship to one of the characters. That was unnecessary and dumb. Not worthy of Mankell. It almost seemed as if Mankell had to say something about Jones and this was his vehicle. I had no idea what to expect of this book. The titel was a mystery to me. The one clue I had was that Kurt Wallanders daughter was a leading character in the novel. It was a sinister book, but I liked it. Because I liked the way the author has described Kurt Wallander with all his faults, hopes, dreams and fears. Also because I admire the way Kurt (and now his daughter too) conduct their investigation. They are no-nonsense types, no more words or deeds than neccessary. I think, letting the fictive crime comitted out of it, that the way he and his daughter work, comes quite close to real life police work. Much hard work and thourough investigating and harldy any glamour. The second English language copy of this book was sent to me by Plum-Crazy. For my review of this book, please look at the Dutch version. This was my first novel by Henning Mankell. Although I found it entertaining, there were things about it that drove me crazy. The story itself was about a man named Eric, a survivor of the mass suicide in Jonestone, Guyana, who makes his way to Sweden, where he plans to reunite with his daughter Anna whom he abandoned long ago. Eric leads a Christian cult which believes in animal and human sacrifice as well as church burning. This becomes a problem for police detective Kurt Wallender and his daughter Linda, who was soon to become a full fledged police officer. This Wallender guy...I certainly would not want him for a father. He is as nasty as he can be. I felt sorry for Linda throughout the whole book as she tried to work on the same case on which her dad was working, but all the time being scolded by him for one thing or another. Why in the world would a soon-to-be police officer enter a possible crime scene (where a woman had just disappeared) and move things around, look through her apartment without a warrant, and start reading her private diary? Oh. Okay. They were friends. That doesn't fly with me. Taking a pulse? Don't do it with your thumb...as instructed in this book. Your thumb has its own pulse. The end of this book? What did the suicide of an unrelated person have to do with Erich's story? Oh. It had to do with Linda's story? I was more interested in finding out to where Erich had suddenly disappeared. Why was the 9-11 disaster in the United States brought into this novel? It didn't have any connection to the main story at all. Will I read more Mankell books? Probably. This one was fun to listen to. I hope others will be better (read: have more cohesive story lines) and that Kurt Wallender will lighten up a bit on his daughter.

Wikipedia in English (2)Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0099459043, Mass Market Paperback)In woodland outside Ystad, the police make a horrific discovery: a severed head, and hands locked together in an attitude of prayer. A Bible lies at the victim's side, the pages marked with scribbled corrections. A string of macabre incidents, including attacks on domestic animals, have been taking place, and Inspector Wallander fears that these disturbances could be the prelude to attacks on humans on an even more alarming scale. Linda Wallander, in preparation to join the police force, arrives at Ystad. Exhibiting some of the hallmarks of her father - the maverick approach, the flaring temper - she becomes entangled in a case involving a group of religious extremists who are bent on punishing the world's sinners. Following on from the enormous success of the Kurt Wallander mysteries, Henning Mankell has begun an outstanding new chapter in crime writing.(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:49:24 -0400) Just graduated from the police academy, Linda Wallander returns to Sk?ane to join the police force, and she already shows all the hallmarks of her father--the maverick approach, the flaring temper. Before she even starts work she becomes embroiled in the case of her childhood friend, Anna, who has inexplicably disappeared. As the case that her father is working on dovetails with her own, something far more dangerous than either could have imagined begins to emerge. They soon find themselves forced to confront a group of extremists bent on punishing the world's sinners.… (more) (summary from another edition) |

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone has endorsed fellow Democrat Steve Snair in his campaign for Smithtown Town supervisor.
In a statement released by Snair's campaign, Bellone said Snair "has the work ethic and vision to tackle the tough challenges that face Smithtown residents."
Snair, 31, a Nesconset attorney, is seeking the seat held since 1978 by Republican incumbent Patrick Vecchio, 82, who is seeking his 13th term. Vecchio faces a September primary challenge from Republican Councilman Robert Creighton, 75.

- Superheroes reimagined in film noir style (pictures)
Sentinel of liberty
These days, it seems like movies about superheroes often emphasize explosive visuals and sound over compelling story. Macedonian artist Marko Manev has stripped all of the fancy colors from superheroes to create a striking set of original images featuring famous super humans in the muted black and white noir style that has roots in German Expressionist cinematography. The artist spent about a month drawing and composing each image. He used a Wacom drawing tablet for illustration and Photoshop CS6 for finishing.
Noir style seems like a stark contrast to modern cinema style, especially as superhero-based movies offer more color, explosions, and sound than ever before. With this in mind, it's refreshing to see superheroes in a simple, yet sullen way.
"Those are some of my favorite superheroes and I wanted to make silhouette posters in their most archetypical poses," Manev told Crave. "I love using silhouettes in my art because they are more striking, like statues of a pantheon."
In this image, we see the silhouette of Captain America –- with his trademark shield held high in the air -- proudly standing on top of a pile of rubble after an epic confrontation.

I've just started back to drawing after a four year break. I had spent quite some time working on Manga type line art but wasn't producing any quality work. So I took some advice from someone here (can't remember who, sorry) and started to work on real life art to improve my cartooning.
I began Betty Edwards book "Drawing on the right side of the brain" and improvements were forthcoming, unfortunately so were final year exams, a final year project and a new job. And the art ended there.
Since then I have moved to New Zealand and have finally found a job that gives me the weekend off. So amongst other hobbies I have taken to drawing again and dug out a new copy of Betty's book.
So without further ado, here is exercise one part one, the self portrait. Please critic, I need all the help I can get.
Last edited by Sleepy_Head; June 19th, 2007 at 05:55 PM. Reason: Removed unnecessary post script
Cool, i know im not one to critize but the eyes do look large compeared to the rest of the head and the pencil work looks a bit flat.
But it's good, better than my self-portrits
Thanks NS. I'm not a big fan of faces in general, because I'm not too good at them. The eyes are my biggest Achilles Heel (no pun intended).
I've moved to the next part of the exercise (well I actually skipped the second one "draw someone from memory" because I had artists block )
So here is my left hand (2B pencil in 20 minutes)
I've found a few minutes here and there over the past week or so to do the missing middle part of the first assignment from the book. I have tried to draw my best friend from memory and it's turned out a bit better than I first thought it would. I've had to think so hard about what he looks like that I've found a bit more detail has gone into the finished sketch. It's amazing how little you can remember about someone you know so well.
Crits if you will, please.
Nice start on the sketchbook Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is a good book and hope to see you complete all the exercises within it.
nice start... i like your stuff... just try not to push your pencil so hard...
Congrats on starting a sketchbook. I would go as far as to say that not only should you not push down on your lines to hard, but not to worry about contours at all for the time being and focus on studying values. Working on getting a good range of lights and darks out of pencil and, through observation, learn where to apply them. I hope that helps. Good luck and keep hammering away.
Thanks for dropping by, and congratulations on starting on a long but rewarding journey!
Betty Edwards' book was a good starting point for me too, although once you're through the observation stage it'll no longer be very useful. Jumping directly into faces is tempting but difficult - on top of observation, it requires a set of anatomical knowledge to make a convincing likeness - perhaps spending a week or so with a half-dozen simple objects would be worthwhile.
If you insist on faces (who doesn't? ), have a look at a book by Maughan (I think!). It's on portraits with conte / chalk, and very informative. It's a good example of what ND meant with using values and not lines.
Good luck!
I would echo the other posts and say to lighten up with your lines. Also try not to focus on the detail so much and spend time with the overall shape,form and proportion of your drawing. And just keep drawing!!!
...a perpetual plan for discovery days,where everyone can take part in "purposeless play".
My Sketch 'em up book!!
My Blog/portfolio site- purposelessplay.com/blog
Hey Sleepy_Head. Thanks for leaving a calling card in my sketchbook! I'll just share a few comments here and there if you don't mind.
The hand that you drew is out of proportions. Generally, the fingers should be shorter than the palm. And there is some slight perspective problems with your fingers. The middle finger should be smaller in terms of thickness than the fore finger, and so forth. Draw size according to what's nearer or further away from you.
As for your second portrait, if you don't mind me saying, you have some fairly serious problems with proportions. Ideally, the shape of the head should be an oval shape, much like an egg. The one you have is closer to round. It's not
wrong per say; there are some people that have that kind of head shape. But if you're drawing from imagination, probably it's best to stick to the ideal shape.
The rest of the features you have are not quite right. Your main face shape isn't quite there, so it stands to reason. I think maybe you should work on proportions first. I see you have went ahead to render some of your stuff. My advice is, not yet. Save the time you use for rendering and work on your proportions. Draw sheets after sheets of practice drawings to get the proportions right first, then worry about rendering.
Keep on drawing!
my congrats on starting
and my crit..no..not really a crit..just little advice. draw the same model (head,arm,etc) in different views to get a form . it helps much.
sorry for my awful english, and hope u understand
Just a suggestion, Sleepyhead, but break your line up sometimes; it will give a suggestion of where the light falls on a face. (Where the line is broken is the place where the light hits)
Thanks for the sketchbook reply!
It looks as if your smudging graphite with your fingers; I used to do that, but that really only works with charcoal. With graphite it just gives you rather frail shadows.
Apologies if you aren't, and you already knew that =P
Drawing is nice. So yeah - cheers for taking it up again!
As people are saying, try to concentrate on describing form with value. Think of objects as a collection of 3D volumes and not 2D shapes. As it is now, the eyes and mouths in your drawings look like they're made of paper and stuck to the head. Try to understand the relationships between the 3d objects.
A good exersise would be to just draw simple compositions of cubes, spheres, cones and so on to understand how they interact with each other (when one is infront another etc.).
When drawing the head try to build it up from simple 3D primitives and when rendering it, do it in such a way that each of those primitives keeps its volume.
Good luck! And keep having fun
OldNoobie - Hope I get through it too. I didn't get much further than where I am now last time. Gonna have a good go at doing that this weekend.
costas - I've stopped pushing quite so hard now, seems to make life a bit easier. I think I may have dome it again in the Dog picture. Thanks for the tip.
N D Hill - I'm going to give the contours a miss this weekend. I'll try to focus on the tones only and see how it goes. Thanks for the advise.
Vaei - I've put the book in my Birthday wish list . I'm going to try to push through the whole book in order, but only because I'm a bit picky that way. I'm looking forward to the face stuff as it's my weak point and I like a challenge!
silvestri99 - I'm going to give the shape idea a go this weekend too. May be just get an A4 pad and plow through a load of figure references and see if I can get them close.
CouchPotato - Thanks for the crits. I have to admit to rushing the first two, and then over thinking the face. I've made notes and will try harder
Th. - Your English is fine mate and the tip has been noted. I'm planning on getting together a plan of studies to do over the next few months and I've noted you comment on it. Thanks.
alesoun - Duly noted and I'll give it a go this weekend. Broken lines it shall be
drd - Err .. yes, guilty as charged. I've seen artists doing the old smudging, but you're right, it doesn't seem to work as well with graphite. I'll slap my hand if I catch it doing it again!
Windmaker - I've never really thought of it as 3D on paper, but it seems quite obvious now I think about it. Thanks. I'll add it to my studies list and give it a go. Cheers.
Now. onto some drawings from the last couple of weeks. Not had a lot of time to do much, but here it all is.
First up is an upside down drawing I did as part of Betty's book. It's referenced in there, but I can never remember the name of the artist or drawing. (I'll edit in the references later).
The next two a partials. Still using the upside down method, but I ran out of time on each of them. I set a strict time of 40 minutes. Rubbed out way too much whilst doing them
Lastly here is a sketch of a dog from a Getty Images stock photo reference. I'm quite proud of this one, even if it did take 3 hours. There is still a lot to work on and I will follow a few tips from above to better it in the next one. Thanks again all for the posts and tips. Muchios appreciated.
hey sleepy head, nice studies, i think the doggie its ur best, keep in that line, and i have the same crits and advice about proportion and line thickness, but keep it up man, and thanks for the post
Hay man, add me as a friend! Or dont, i geuss its really your choice....
Hey man, nice stuff!
My main crit is to just draw more. The best way to improve is to do it every day, and unless there are things you aren't showing us, that doesn't look like it's happening.
Also, the general "Draw what you see, not what you think you see." Your brains flat idea of what an eye looks like is overriding what it is that your actually seeing. Remember that the eye is a ball.
Overall good progress. Keep it up man!

I second cup's opinion, draw and post more, although i can see the progress already
I was looking forward to a bumper weekend of studies for the past week. I'd got a load of references, planned some quite time and then I have to spend the whole weekend configuring a server. I bloody hate being good at computing! People keep asking things of you, on weekends cause that's when they're not busy.
Anyway I at least got a couple of quick quite half hours on Sunday night. Read a bit more of Betty's book and did one of the exercises with perspex viewfinder (framed with cross hairs) and then did three attempts at sketching my own hand in three different ways.
The hands are a bit rushed as the server was wining in my ear at full blast which would put just about anyone off.
Harsh crits please. Where have I gone wrong with them??
Spent an hour and a half starting a copy of a head from a reference.
I'm quite pleased with the progress, but it's not looking quite like the reference.
Crits welcomed.

Was a bit rude of me to go off on one about the weekend and not reply to posts.
Muchos apologies.
Dan Valkar - Thanks man. I loved the doggy too. Very proud of that, and it just goes to show how much improvement can be made by just concentrating a bit harder.
NobleSnowball - Added to my buds list.
Cup of Joe - I'm trying my hardest to get time every day Your getting to see everything, good and bad. Just wish there was more to show. I've taken the draw what you see not what you think you see on board. I've still not got it (above) but it's getting better. Thanks.
h2rra - Thanks. I hope the improvement continues too.
Nice work, man. It's good that you're working on fundamentals. The Betty White book is good for teaching you to draw what you see, but it helps a lot to understand what you're seeing as well. To that end, I'd recommend that you do some anatomy and general figure-drawing study. Download the Loomis books and start on "Figure Drawing For All It's Worth" -- it'll take you far.
Keep it up!
That last one is showing a drop of developing grasp at core shadows, keep at it. You notice that you actually analysed and recorded the point at which a shadow begins and ends around the eyes as a pose to the smudgy, blurred and overgradiated render you had on your first image.

Thanks for stoppin by my SB, nice start you have here, its great that you are following amethod to learning drawing but I would say the one aspect you are neglecting a bit is life drawing, one can never underestimate its importance! But hey, thats just my opninion! Good luck and keep at it

Description: The Pantac Molle Barrel Extension Pouch is a great way to keep your barrel extension on your gear if your holster does not allow you to secure the gun with the barrel extension still attached. This pouch uses one Molle strap so it doesn't take much space to mount and it can easily be opened with one hand thanks to the plastic buckle that keeps the main flap secure. Don't leave your barrel extension at home just because it doesn't fit in your holster with your gun, carry it on the field with this Pantac pouch.

This has been a nagging void in e-commerce that people have been whining about (myself included) for 10+ years. I have plenty of products that I would sell for $0.69 each if it was economically feasible to do so.
Provided their service is good and the fees are reasonable, this could be a fantastic vehicle for online charity fundraising. It's a well-established wisdom that fundraising from a large volume of small amounts is usually more successful than than soliciting smaller volumes of larger donations.
Micropayments aren't a difficult concept. It's just a matter of pooling lots of tiny transactions into aggregate transactions. However no one in the banking cartel has had the kajones to try it, the popularity or infrastructure to make it successful, or the willingness to let up on predatory transaction fees that make it unfeasible.
PayPal is in an ideal situation to try this.

MuscleNerd has tweeted several messages in the last hour which signal that the golden age of SHSH Blob replay attacks may be nearing an end.
After iOS5 is released it looks as though it will no longer be possible to save new SHSH Blobs and play them back to iTunes to fool it into restoring a previous firmware which is no longer being signed.
Whilst restores of 4.x and 3.x should still work if you have saved blobs and a supported version of iTunes (e.g. 10.3), new 5.x blobs will not be of use if you save them away and try and use them later.
According to MuscleNerd Apple is introducing a "number used once" (nonce) to the signing window just as they do for the baseband at the moment which will defeat the replay attack which is currently exploited to allow saved Blobs to work.
Sad news indeed. This will make it even more important to take great care with your upgrades / restores / and installs when jailbroken OR when waiting for a jailbreak!
If you install something old / incompatible with your device and have to restore you could be in for a world of pain if the "current" firmware is not jailbreakable...

The Hobbit: Early reviews are in!
Screen International Hobbit review
Warner Bros IncShow Thumbnails
Screen International
"Boasting an appreciably dark tone and a seemingly endless array of visual astonishments, this 'Hobbit' suffers from a bit of déjà vu," writes Tom Grierson. But he also says it largely overcomes its problems, "by being robustly entertaining and well-paced."
Our reaction: A measured but positive response. We're getting more hopeful.

Sony produces two interchangeable lens lines -- traditional dSLR and so-called single-lens translucent (SLT), which uses a translucent mirror with a digital viewfinder. The A57 falls into the latter camp. It looks and works just like a dSLR but it has a faster burst mode for taking rapid sequences of images.
The body alone can be bought now for £620, or for £850 with 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses.
Specs and handling
Stand it beside a dSLR and you can't tell them apart. There's a top-mounted mode selector with direct access to two automatic modes, sweep panorama, movie and regular semi-manual modes with aperture and shutter priority. There are also program and manual modes if you want to be really hands-on. The handy finger wheel around the front handles adjustments.
Its native resolution is 16.1 megapixels on an APC-C-sized sensor, with sensitivity running from ISO 100 to ISO 16,000. The lens mount accepts all Sony dSLR lenses and A-mount bayonet lenses from Minolta and Konica Minolta. So if you have a library of lenses built up before Sony bought that company's camera business, you can recycle them here.
The longest exposure time is 30 seconds, backed up by a bulb option, which holds open the shutter for as long as you keep the button pressed (you'd be advised to buy a remote if you want to use this mode), while the shortest is 1/4,000.
Sony claims that the Bionz processor can handle large amounts of sensor data for high-speed shooting, and that was certainly the case during my tests. A burst mode fires up to 12 shots per second, making it easy to capture motion as a series of stills.
The animation below shows a 21-frame sample shot at that rate, but looped at 10 frames per second, so that actual captured data ran slightly quicker than seen here. For anyone who needs a camera for performance analysis -- say in sports -- the A57 is certainly up to the job.
Stills tests
This is where a camera lives and dies. I performed my tests shooting raw and JPEG images side by side, but I used the in-camera JPEGs for analysis. The results were sharp and crisp on contrasts and extremely smooth across areas of similar tone. Colours were punchy and luminance was well balanced, adding up to an impressive set of results overall.
I performed my tests using the SAL1855 18-55mm kit lens, so the results below are indicative of that particular unit. If you choose a different lens, your own output will differ. This lens behaves like a 27-82.5mm (3x zoom) unit on the APS-C-sized sensor in the A57. It's not an enormous range, but these measurements are pretty standard for a consumer dSLR's bundled lens.
The lens geometry is spot-on, with no evidence of barrel or pin-cushion distortion (parallel lines bowing out or in, respectively) in my tests.
Macro performance with this lens was very impressive. It was easy to isolate the exact part of the shot I was after, despite the minimum focusing distance topping out at around 21cm in my tests. It was quick to focus, and allowed me to pick out this family of aphids living inside a flower -- along with the stamen at the bottom of the petals. Outside of the sweet spot, it threw the surrounding detail gently out of focus, helping draw the eye to the subject.
It did extremely well in the chromatic aberration test. This reveals how effectively a lens focuses each wavelength of light in the visible spectrum in sync with the rest of the spectrum. Lenses that don't focus each tone perfectly in line with the others will render a pink or turquoise fringe around areas of fine detail against sharp contrasts, which is particularly visible in the corners and edges of the frame.
There's no such problem here. The SAL1855 kit lens focused everything perfectly for a crisp set of results. Detail was consistent right across the frame throughout my tests.
Detail was particularly impressive, with the A57 rendering shots packed with fine elements.
In the image below, taken at the widest end of the zoom, the individual leaves on the trees and bricks in the church are easy to distinguish. Meanwhile, the flat rendered front of the tower, despite being largely smooth, has subtle variations in illumination on the sun-facing side, which are accurately reproduced by the camera.
Colour reproduction was excellent throughout my tests, with the A57 making best use of overcast skies. The cottage below was shot without any direct sunlight, yet the roof is a warm red, the garden is characterised by deep, satisfying green, and the white of both the render and the picket fence is clean.
Furthermore, it did an excellent job of retaining both colour and detail in backlit subjects that could otherwise have been lost in silhouette.
The features of the goose below are perfectly captured. There's still enough detail recorded in its plumage to be recovered by reducing the intensity of the shadow by around 10-15 per cent in post-production.
However, in some instances backlit shots could display a small amount of noise. In the example below, of boats on a reservoir, the retained detail at the front of the image, where the boats have their backs to the camera, is good. But looking further into the frame, where the sun is reflecting off the water, reveals evidence of noise on the bows of the furthest boats.
Low-light performance was very good, even at particularly high sensitivities. The image below was shot with sensitivity set to automatic, causing the A57 to choose a very ambitious ISO 3,200. However, it paid off. Colours remained well balanced and closer to the lens, where there was slightly more available light, some of the text on the back of the tins remained legible without too much evidence of noise.
Noise was more obvious towards the back of the frame, where text was less legible due to the lower light level.
Video test
The A57 shoots video in AVCHD (1,920x1,080 50p) and MP4 (1,440x1,080 25fps) format. I used AVCHD in my tests and achieved excellent results, as can be seen below. Colours were just as punchy as they were in my stills, and there was plenty of detail in fast-moving subjects such as flowing water on a weir.
Compensation for changing light levels was excellent, with fast, smooth corrections made for variations in illumination, without any signs of stepping.
While manually controlling the zoom by turning the cuff on the lens unit, there was no evidence on the soundtrack of the slight sighing sound this makes. However, despite switching on wind noise reduction, the passing breeze could still be heard on the audio track -- as could the sound of the auto-focus system maintaining a fix on moving subjects.
The A57 positively flew through my tests, producing consistently sharp, bright images. The 12fps burst mode is particularly impressive and I couldn't fault the level of detail and colour rendered in the above shots.
The only thing it's lacking is an optical viewfinder. Although the in-eyepiece display isn't as true to the finished photo as the rear-mounted LCD, it's fine-grained and detailed enough to show an enormous amount of shooting data.
It's a great camera, and while it looks a touch expensive when stood beside its peers, the quality of output justifies the asking price.

I have always loved the story of King Arthur so when I discovered Jack Whyte's books in his series the Arthurian Saga I knew I had to read them. Jack Whyte is an excellent story teller, when I read his books I can visualize the surroundings that the story transports us. I have read many of his books and always finish with much anticipation of reading another one.
This is a tale of Uther Pendragon, future father of King Arthur, son of King Uric, and cousin of Merlyn. As a boy Uther had two homes, the civilized town of his mother's people Camulod where he often spent time visiting his grandparents, and Tir Manha the harsh home of his father's. His mother thought that her people and their ways would be a good influence of her hotheaded son. Uther favoured his time at Camulod, because of the cleanliness of it, the disciplined soldiers especially the cavalry, and the cheerfulness of the people. These feelings often made him feel disloyal to his own people of whom he will one day lead. Follow the tale of Uther from boy to man, a rather different version in which Jack Whyte tells beautifully.
You must check out Jack Whyte's website, www.jackwhyte.com, if you like historical fiction.

Solveig is the second daughter of the king, neither heir to the throne like her younger brother nor beautiful like her older sister. She and her siblings have been sent away to a remote, frozen hideaway to remain safe while their father is at war. Then the king sends a group of his deadly berserker warriors to watch over them. But it will be a long winter, trapped in their fortress with limited food. And soon it's clear that there is a traitor among them.Solveig is a brave girl, but humble and unaware of her true potential. It's soon apparent that she's a talented storyteller, so she begins to apprentice with her father's bard. Readers of all ages should enjoy this fascinating story of honor, betrayal, and mystery. Icefall is an amazing book that will make you not want to put it down until it is done.

Woven woods on windows provide an excellent backdrop for color familiesMay 24 2011 Colors in the same family often can be used as both main colors and accents. Using colors that are close to each other on the color wheel is how home decorators can develop color-family décor. "An analogous color scheme uses colors that are next to each other on the color wheel," states Better Homes and Gardens magazine. "Analogous schemes are harmonious and very easy to work with; just be sure to add a little contrast, such as black furniture." Contrast can also be achieved by choosing brighter members of the same color family for a major piece of furniture such as a sofa, or for a selection of accessories clustered into an arrangement. The choice of a window treatment can either continue a color combination in a room or provide contrast to it. For instance, custom blinds of woven woods or woven shades provide a natural look that serves as an excellent backdrop for any color arrangement. They can be paired with drapes in a living room or used alone for a more informal look in a den or family room. Related Products

The SMS4 125 mirrors Husqvarna's championship winning supermoto range and is equally exquisite in its detail.

At £3999 OTR there are cheaper 125s but then none of those rivals have the same heritage or kudos. Despite making only 15bhp it's great fun to ride - the fact the new four-stroke engine thrives on revs keeps the old RS spirit alive. It handles well, stops well, and most importantly looks the part.

Practicality and convenience are where today's large capacity scooters come into their own. Such an example is Kymco's new 300i Downtown – we say example because it is a new arrival in a growing populace of big-bore four-stroke scooters.At £3999, the Kymco's 300cc capacity sits performance-wise between Suzuki's Burgman 200 and 400 machines, and matches Honda's SH300i.

The GTS 300 Super is Vespa's biggest scooter to date and blends classic Vespa style with bang-up-to-date performance, refinement and sophistication. It's up to more than outings across cities and suburbia: get the extra luggage, load it up and it'll happily take you for a long weekend away touring.

As the marketing driven name suggests the Kawasaki Versys is incredibly versatile, the jack of all trades. The Kawasaki Versys does everything well, but isn't outstanding at any one thing. That said, the Kawasaki Versys is incredibly easy to ride, fun at low speeds and in some ways looks funky for 2007. At under £5000 for the basic model, the ...

The Honda CBR125R is an excellent 'mid market' 125. There are cheaper to buy / run bikes, like Honda's own CG125 but they lack kudos. There's a flotilla of fancy, mainly European motorcycles like Aprilia's gorgeous RS125 but they're silly money. But the Honda CBR125R's a tidy little motorcycle with a reliable four stroke engine, safe handling and brakes.

The Aprilia MX 125 is just amazing fun - once de-restricted of course - with a rev-happy two-stroke engine taken from the race-bred Aprilia RS125 and an excellent Supermoto style chassis. The Aprilia MX125 has real class, looks and feels like a proper grown up motorcycle, but question marks over reliability, high initial price and insurance make this an expensive ...
