(comments are locked)
a quick google revealed Are you using ssis ?, how is sp_getschemalock being called , and by what ? a Microsoft consulter sad that the sp_getschemalock is started by server when this is creating or updating a database struct, but not known exactly how.

sp_getschemalock is an internal extended procedure, used when querying across linked servers. Does this fit with your scenario? If so what queries are you running? we have 4 servers runnig linked servers selecting, inserting and updating data between the servers. but when the getshemalock start on a server lock all others, many times in process anothers databases.

When anticipating the arrival of a new baby, special care must be taken to prepare the family dog – or dogs – for the big changes to come. Planning ahead and taking precautions are key in making the transition a smooth one for everyone involved.
It has been said, "A dog doesn't know how to be a person; he only knows how to be a dog." This bears repeating when discussing dog-baby relations. For every romantic memory (or fantasy!) about a dog "baby-sitting" a child for hours, there are many more about difficult – even tragic – consequences of improper supervision. Dogs don't know how to interact with babies, and some may not even know what a baby is. They may accidentally hurt an infant by jumping on the owner (with the baby in her arms) or becoming aroused by loud screaming and flailing arms. A dog who gets along with small children will not necessarily recognize a baby as a smaller child, and could even view him as prey. It is best, therefore, to assume your dog will react unpredictably toward your new baby and plan accordingly.
How to plan?
When the baby comes home:
Make sure to schedule time and exercise for your dog to prevent "garden variety" behavior problems from developing: barking, digging, chewing, hyperactivity and so on. A dog's needs don't stop just because a new family member has come home!
Without question, it takes time and effort to prepare a dog for a baby, but it is time and energy well spent. Planning ahead and erring on the side of caution can help everyone live a long and happy life together.

Sleek Audio's SA7 Earphones Go Where Your Ears - and Body - Can't
Filed under: Gadgets
Sleek Audio has just released its SA7 earbuds, which use all kinds of military grade materials, specs, and jargon to deliver your rather lo-fi iPod tunes to your auditory canal: carbon fiber composite weave, milled aluminum core, titanium plate connector and screws, variable equalization system, and dual ultra-wide band balanced sonic cannons. That's right, sonic cannons.
The two drivers inside are cushioned by silicone, and the structure can withstand 14,000 times the force of gravity. Needless to say, 14,000 Gs is well beyond the point at which you would be unrecognizably dead. But technology doesn't limit itself to puny human boundaries. The pertinent specs: adjustable bass and treble ports, wireless functionality, and the ability to transmit another octave to golden-eared listeners. If your ears are worthy, you'll find them for $400 at Sleek Audio.

Its' free and it takes less than 1 minute!
Hello, there. I've finally gotten the courage to post my own sketchbook. My name is Kirsten Zirngibl. I do a good bit of lurking and will be posting more.
I did a lot more art back around high school Freshman year-- Someone even told me that they think the best pieces of mine were from that time. Thinking that one "peaked" at that time is frustrating!
I started to get busy with academics later in High School, and rarely had time for art. However, I made the decision to pursue it as a career, so I will start to work on it a lot more than I have in the past. Now that I'm out, I plan to start developing my skills again.
I will try to post my work in chronological order, starting from eighth grade (I have some interesting stuff from that time and earlier, but it's not in the computer). Sometimes I finished some of those pieces in the summer of that year-- it's not a perfect catagorizing system. After this large burst of works, I will post some of the things I'm currently working on, as well as some works-in-progress. I've always been really into portraying situations with a story in them, so I'm going to explain them. All of the ideas are my own.
I'll be describing the pieces in a list of captions that correspond with the attached images. You'll figure it out.
I'd also like to note that I lot of my work is pretty small in size. It's kind of different viewing certain sizes as if they had the same width as ones larger- not always sure if that's a good thing or not. I've provided dimensions, as well as some sections from the full file sizes.
I guess thus far (up to post 9), I have mostly completed pieces. As I said before, I will be posting incomplete ones as well.
Finally, I guess it's sort of hard to find consistency within my works- with me anyway. I've used so many mediums and a lot of different styles that it doesn't look like I have a real... direction, as an artist. I suppose it's because probably half of these are the result of some kind of school assignment. Almost all my assignments have been rather open-ended, but I still ended up doing something I might not have decided to do on my own. Perhaps you can help me out in finding my tendencies and some kind of consistency.

Pics from 8th grade
Pic order: #1
Identifying description: Portrait of a girl.
Title of piece: "Myself"
Dimentions: w->9.5" h->8"
What's going on: This was my second oil painting-- a self portrait. I just had this taken of myself so I could paint it (notice the sky- like I'm thinking of something unearthly). I feel like it's still unfinished- it was taken by a portrait studio at Wal-Mart; the light wrapped around my face too much, making it so flat. I regret I was too scared to add shadow where the portrait needed it, just because I didn't see it in the photo.
Medium: Oil
Pic order: #2
Identifying description: Very detailed (probably TOO much so) drawing of a dragon-like creature on a very busy planet.
Title of piece: "Another World" (haha, pretty generic)
Dimentions: w->8" h->10.75"
What's going on: A dragon-like creature is standing on a ledge, harvesting this very rare plant that actually grows on the tip of these huge crystals that have been saturated with a solution that makes them seep pure mineral, which, with water, makes up nearly the entire plant. It's excellent for medicinal purposes.
Medium: Pen
Pic order: #3
Identifying description: A drawing of some shoes...
Title of piece: untitled
Dimentions: approx. w->7" h->7"
What's going on: This is a still life of shoes (the middle one is sort of a woven-leather thing-- I remember counting each one of the strap things-- very tedious!)
Medium: Pencil

Pics from 9th grade
{I probably worked the most this year, as you'll probably see.}
Pic order: #1
Identifying description: Detailed almost "dragon" like creature.
Title of piece: "Pnaebius Polyextrapolai"
Dimentions: w->9.5" h->8"
What's going on: This is a piece that's attempting to depict a deviation from the "classic" dragon. It pictures a parent creature, with a baby (kind of hard to see-- lower right corner). It's to show a different side of a creature that seems rather hostile. A lot of its add-ons don't make a lot of sense- it has "armor", and yet it has many things that make it also appear delicate. I'm told this is more powerful as an abstract piece than objective, mainly because it's so distracting.
Medium: Oil
Pic order: #2
Identifying description: 3 "swirled" portraits of a man; inverted colors.
Title of piece: "Twisted Logic" Portrait Series
Dimentions: w->13.5" h->19.75"
What's going on: These are all portraits of my Dad- a very logical man. I played around with stretching and twisting him (mainly his hair) not only because it was fun, but for the embarassed look on his face when people would recognize him in our school art show.
Medium: Oil pastel (my first-- it was a little hard to work with!)
Pic order: #3
Identifying description: Black and white patches surrounded by worm-like creatures, filled with "Escher meets cubism" stairs and other structures.
Title of piece: "Primative Creatures that Ingest Order and Excrete Chaos"
Dimentions: w->5.75" h->11"
What's going on: The title is a pretty good description here. Essentially, a sack-like "chaos bomb" includes hundreds of "eggs" that host rapid-growing worm-like creatures that actually eat through reality. They eat through in a radial pattern, assumedly over one 2D "plane". Color is the nutrient, which they soak up almost all the way. They feed on order, perspective, and form, and excrete a chopped-up version of it. This is why there is no color or consistent direction in side the holes- they've already eaten that part.
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Note: This is actually a picture of a photocopy of the original, and not all of this is shown- there are a couple of inches to the right that were lost when this copied due to size limits of the machinery.
Pic order: #4 & #5
Identifying description: An old-fashioned sink, with a lot going on around it, like a gushing road and some chickens.
Title of piece: "Why Did the Road Cross the Chickens?"
Dimentions: w->16.75" h->10.75"
What's going on: When I originally planned this piece, it was to make fun of a fad at my school of "random"... (like saying random things). I started with someone who decided to say "fire-breathing chicken" and made a situation to fit it. If you look closely, you'll see that several of these twisted birds are pecking at the fuse... of a bomb. They're standing on a road that's a result of a system with some messed-up entropy (the road is gushing out of the fawcet of the old-fahioned sink, then forming itself into an orderly thing-- (this was also about the "random" fad of people mixing things together but it sounding coherent anyway). One of the chickens is very stupid- he's starting to flow his fire at the part of the sink that's shielding him from the liquid road. As I worked, I came up with a situation where each one of the chickens represent a different country/region of the world- it's about nuclear warfare.
Medium: Oil
#4 is a color photocopy, hence the weird glare and flatness.
Pic order: #6 & #7
Identifying description: A flying rodent with machinery in the background.
Title of piece: "Specimen Bt(q)-34.8.A"?
Dimentions: w->14" h->10.75"
What's going on: This is a guinea pig escaping from a lab. Basically, the statement "You be the guinea pig" can actually be positive. On close inspection, the guinea pig has wires hooked into a chip implanted in its brain. It's an experiment to determine whether the rodent could evolve natural tissue in the same part of its brain as what moves the legs to control the wings. The motorized part on each tip causes the pinwheel-like flaps to rotate. Also, the whole thing can pivot, causing a change of direction. The rest of the wing acts more of a glider. This is more of a fantasy piece than Sci-Fi, though, because the wings are way too small. I've been thinking of starting a children's book with this illustration as the premise.
Medium: Watercolor and pen
Here's a link to a review done of the piece: http://www.ohio.com/mld/beaconjournal/16201967.htm(I really didn't intend for it to be as "dark" as the reviewer thinks it is)[/COLOR]#6 is a color photocopy, hence the slight glare.
Pic order: #8
Identifying description: A very-detailed (too detailed?) piece featuring a bug-eyed alien holding some strange-looking machinery up to some dripping sacks.
Title of piece: "The Harvest"
Dimentions: w->9.5" h->7"
What's going on: This also started out as making fun of something: the clichéd "alien". Again, it evolved into my own version of the alien (perhaps what I think one should look like, heh. The alien is harvesting a fluid produced by the illuminated sacs. (The broken ones are dead- no light). It's using the tool in its "left" tentacle to detect whether the fluid is good or not. The solution produced by the sac is used as a medium for which to enhance the growth of their young (after their genetic material is poured into it in an asexual process). But I assumed the viewer knew that already...
Medium: Pen and watercolor
Pic order: #9
Identifying description: A black-and white projection of roots/branches
Title of piece: "Root Profusion"
Dimentions: w->17.5" h->11.5"
What's going on: Basically itself... This was another school assignment. It's a drawing from life of an uprooted shrub lying on the table, from the view of its roots.
Medium: pen
Pic order: #10 & #11
Identifying description: A "blueprint" on yellow paper
Title of piece: "CCS (Chemical Coding System) Computer Automated Stem Cell Incubation Unit"?
Dimentions: w->27.75" h->22"
What's going on: This was for school, but not for art. We had to "invent" something for a disabled person. Being the usual "overachiever", I thought of a home unit that would incubate stem cells for a person who might have a brain injury or degenerative condition. However, the cells are less then perfect, dying early and not coming back. The patient would need to inject themselves (almost like diabetics with insulin, but not as often). The system would design and completely monitor the conditions of the cells. The monitor shows the progress, and allows input. The processor would use a unique chemical language (like C++) that deals almost entirely with chemical formulas and temperature that would monitor the release of certain amino acids and base solutions into different chambers of the actual "incubator" (the third piece). This would alow the patient to place a small blood sample. Everything except the base unit of a fat cell would be discarded, where this would be transported to the various chambers for treatment. In the final stage, the new incubated solution would be placed into a needle, ready for injection. Yeah, I guess you could call me a nerd...

Pics from 10th grade
Pic order: #1
Identifying description: Landscape w/ hands
Title of piece: Scape of Emergence and Decay
Dimentions: w->15 ¼" h->12"
What's going on: All the pathways in the stone-ish "alien" landscape have been carved by these hand creatures, who dig around under, and through their lives slowly extend up until their muscle-like "roots" are no longer in the ground. They then wither and die (like the hand to the right, towards the back with the very long fingernails- it was actually my grandfather's hand.
Medium: Graphite and acrylic
Pic order: #2
Identifying description: Detailed, dark still life with twisted "tree"
Title of piece: "Nightmare at the Hallmark Shop"
Dimentions: w->11.75" h->15"
What's going on: This is a still-life of three soft-sculptures: A black cat, a pumpkin-head, and a witch. They have that "cutsey-crafty" look with the small eyes and large mouth (I didn't choose them, our art teacher did). They seemed like the typical thing you'd find in, well, the Hallmark Shop. So I thought it would be quirky to actually position them over a non-cutesy backdrop of the same thing- a genuinely spooky, non-cute mutated tree with old men heads for gourds.
Medium: Pen and watercolor (really bad paper though, )
Pic order: #3
Identifying description: A man typing on a laptop - muted colors
Title of piece: Provantage
Dimentions: w->21.5" h->17.75"
What's going on: This is my Dad, doing some work away from work. I've seen this scene very often, and painted it from life.
Medium: Watercolor
Pic order: #4
Identifying description: A pen-lined tinted swamp scene, with bone-like plants.
Title of piece: "Symbiotic Relationship I"
Dimentions: w->9.5" h->7"
What's going on: This is one of my favorite "other world" pieces. The main stalks in the foreground are from a single organism (an entire one can be seen in the background). This organism is actually a scavenger, (or more accurately a parasite to dead remains). It's kind of a complicated relationship- I'll explain it on request.
Medium: Pen and watercolor
Pic order: #5
Identifying description: Drawing of an elderly woman
Title of piece: "Oma"
Dimentions: w->4.75" h->5.75"
What's going on: This is simply a portrait of my 85-year-old Grandmother. I was going to make a whole painting, putting her German hometown in the background montage style, but... eh- no time at the time; This is a tinted photocopy of the little drawing I made that I gave to her for her birthday.
Medium: Xerox-ed colored pencil, tinted with colored pencil.
Pic order: #6
Identifying description: Drawing of a plated creature
Title of piece: "Glacias fossura" (Latin for 'ice burrower')
Dimentions: approx. (w->5.5" h->5.5")
What's going on: This is a creature that burrows through ice, which it uses powerful vibrations to melt. It can latch onto sloped tunnel walls with the heated spikes on its tale.
Medium: Watercolor and pen

Pics from 11th grade
Pic order: #1 & #2
Identifying description: A side-view portrait of a boy at the computer.
Title of piece: "Rune Escape" (play on the name of the online game 'Runescape')
Dimentions: w->20" h->16"
What's going on: This is my brother- the photograph was taken at a time when he was very interested in the game. He has gotten up VERY early in the morning and snuck downstairs to play, hair amuss. I made the screen have a tunnel actually going in through the screen, representing the RPG's constant appeal- with perpetual goals, it's like a light that's constantly at the end of a tunnel that nobody can fully reach. I recently submitted it to the game's fan art program-- can it count as fan art? Also, I shone a light behind him-- could I make the back-lighting even stronger in the painting?
Medium: Oil

Identifying description: A meaty fern-shaped creature amid some richly-colored minerals and fungus.
Title of piece: Symbiotic Relationship II
Dimentions: approx. w->14" h->11"
What's going on: This is another one of my "pseudoscientific" biological pieces (This is one of my other favorite ideas!). The meaty fern-shaped thing is actually a rooted creature- somewhat like an anemone. It's constantly moving, whipping around these yellow balls that look much like a common flying creature that these larger bird-like creatures commonly eat (however, they're really poisonous berry-like things). When the "bird" dives down and grabs one of these whipping berries off the fern-like creature, it is paralized in about half a second. Because the height is usually about the same, the bird (usually the same initial velocity and angle of decent) falls approximately 5 feet away. So, this worm scavenger is sitting in a circle at a 5-foot radius around, where it can then devour the decaying bird-like creature, and excrete its nutrients to the base of the fern-like creatures. I love stuff like this!
Medium: Marker with watercolor washes
Pic order: #4
Identifying description: Dark blue with drapes of toilet paper
Title of piece: "The Triangle"
Dimentions: approx. w->9" h->7"
What's going on: My brother and his friends are literally having toilet paper fall on them from this toilet-paper blowing machine at his birthday party (I'm the farthest to the right). It illustrates some of the social problems (mainly a "friend triangle") going on at the time between these different boys. One of them, the one we can hardly see, doesn't want much to do with it (and neither do I- looking away). The two main combatants seem are tugging at the toilet paper- showing the tension between themselves.

Pics from 12th grade -- (I do have some more here that I haven't uploaded yet- oh well, I don't like them very much).
All of these were done (or, started, I should say-- all of these are "incomplete") in Microsoft Paint. I still plan to try out Corel, though. I've seen some amazing stuff from it!
Pic order: #1
Identifying description: Me, sitting in this rich, primal swamp-like environment.
Title of piece: "What's That on the Table"?
Dimentions: w->NA h->NA
What's going on: This is about my fear of unidentified substances that I've had for several years now. I won't go into it now... Anyway, this piece is about the idea that I've created my own world. I have my feet dipped in this primal ooze, I'm surrounded by strange life and odors. I'm not bothered by these things, because I created them- I know what they are. However, I'm still shying away from this little spot on a table, because I don't know what it's made of or how it got there- the irony of the situation!
Medium: Microsoft Paint
This is not finished!
Pic order: #2
Identifying description: Captain Kirk and Crew getting tormented by a bizarre alien.
Title of piece: "Beam Them Up Already!"
Dimentions: w->NA h->NA
What's going on: This is sort of a satire of the Star Trek original series, and a play of my "I-made-my-own-planet" idea. It's basically that after I made the planets geology and ecosystem, I'm being invaded by... Kirk's crew! Well, I don't want them disturbing the stuff I just made, so I send some of my creatures after them- specifically ones that choke them, causing them to gag, then amplify the sound they make. Then, they scream, which is amplified, which causes them to scream louder, the vicious cycle. They leave in a hurry!
Medium: Microsoft Paint
This is not finished either!

As I said before, I really like paying a lot of attention to detail-- somethings I think I put too much of it in, especially in the wrong places.
Since some of my pics are kind of small-ish, I put together a few collections of some of the more detailed parts of my stuff through the past couple years.

Here are a few of my fractals I did-- experimented with some of the scripting a couple years ago. I used a program called UltraFractal, as well as Corel Photopaint to enhance my fractals, and even some Microsoft Paint (I used it to make the "clockwork" behind the second piece)
Pic order: #1
Title of piece: "The Bloodweb"
Pic order: #2
Title of piece: "The Branches of Time in Divergence" (haha, I realize now that everyone names their fractals like that-- but seriously, it does nicely show an interesting theory of time, that every possible thing that can happen does happen, and when it happens a seperate Universe is created- it's spacey all right)

I did did a little experimentation with Blender nearing a year ago. My laptop basically broke down and now I don't think I can retrieve the rest...
The top three are from Blender
Oh, and scroll up and down while viewing the top one- there's the illusion that it's spinning.
The bottom three are from an architecture program, shown as a progression. It was an interesting study for "sculpting" the human face.

(Is it bad to bump threads here? I've seen it done in forums before but I'm not sure how it's viewed here- please tell me)
wow! Your 8th grade/9th grade pics are amazing for your age back then! You are very lucky to have started working with oils when you were younger (I just started oils this year ). My personal favorites are the Rune Escape, the flying rodent, and the sink :3 The amount of detail in your stories and pictures is great. Are all of these from pictures, or are some of them from observation?
Ahhh!! I just visited your myspace... you went to Marie Walsh Sharpe? So did I!! What session were you in? That was possibly the best experience of my life
Thank you-- I only wish I would've continued working as much on art this year than some of those earlier ones. Some of these are from observation. The shoe one (I think I called it "untitled"), "Root Profusion" (pen & ink of tree root), "Nightmare at the Hallmark Shop" (well, this was partially from my head), "Provantage" (the laptop one), and that's about it... probably not enough...
I had session 1 last summer-- Jimmy Grashow and Jane Sutherland as our teachers. I had some great times there, but... some of them weren't very good. This, however, was my fault. I wasn't prepared to work so quickly. I stubbornly tried layering in the style of watercolor with the acrylic (not my favorite medium...), and as a result wasn't 20% finished with any of my paintings. I used to take most of my art assignments home to finish them-- no can do at that camp! I felt frustrated, intimidated, and inferior to the people who were used to painting wonderful things so quickly.
However, there were great times, and I learned so much-- especially in drawing. I hadn't done much figure drawing before that, and I gained a lot of knowledge of evaluating the space in your work.
What session did you have?

Your attention to detail and overall accuracy is very impressive, especially for your age. I look forward to seeing more of your paintings, keep sharing.
Ok, here's a work in progress:
(This is another Microsoft Paint thing- it's a portrait of my brother, overlooking an alien landscape. - It's very incomplete [and the hair currently looks almost afro-ish, heh]. Anyway, it shows the process of my basic sketch beneath)
woah, big brain fart... I forgot what session. I think maybe 3? I had a three week art camp right before I went, so I could only do that session. I had Judith Bernstein for drawing, and Chuck Forsman for painting. They were almost complete opposites, they were so interesting to learn from. I hadn't even painted before I went! haha so learning HOW to paint was pretty fun. I think I finished two paintings total. Judith had us draw everything on huge paper, so we learned to work fast. I also hadn't worked much with figures before either. The other kids there were amazing, I learned a lot from just watching and talking to them. My session was obsessed with playing pool and puzzles x) Many of them were more painters than drawers, which I found interesting because I thought you had to know how to draw before you painted. I was definitely more of a drawer, but they said I caught on fast to painting. It rained practically everyday though... so at Baca we couldn't go on the hike. But the sand dunes were nice and compacted. When we reached the top, it started to rain again, but it was an amazing experience.
I wish I had worked more on my art throughout high school as well, but I took a lot of hard classes because I am a nerd and like to learn so it was hard to fit art into my schedule, especially because I refused to drop band. I don't regret it though, I'm going to an art school so I'll have plenty of time now.
Ditto! In the long run, I guess I also agree about not regretting doing other stuff (like taking every regular and AP math and science class possible)...
Oh, and now I remember that climbing those sand dunes was probably the most physically demanding activity I've ever felt. It was blistering hot, the sand hurt to touch, and I started off running up those dunes. For every step I took, I slid back 90% of that distance. I also took a long way around... But it was worth it because then I actually rolled down and took a video of it... sky-sand-sky-sand-sky-sand-- I'll have to find that clip and post it up!
Now get your own sketchbook up here!
haha, was neil one of your RAs? He taught us how to run down without falling, but of course there were some hilarious wipeouts x) This one kid ran down the wrong way and ended up in a huge sand ditch, couldn't get out. Ahh... that was funny.
I'll get a sketchbook up sooooon... did you decide what school you're going to? CCAD freshmen might get a sketchbook support group going
Hm, running down that sand when it was so firm from rain sounds a little dangerous. I did not have Neil-- I did have someone named Andy who seemed like the kind of guy who's might teach us that-- perhaps and I just wasn't with the group.
Well, I'm currently 98% sure I'm going to CCAD. When you say sketchbook support group, I'm assuming you mean this website? What about getting together in real life, when school starts? I was reading through the CCAD thread and some guys were talking about their own-- sounded fun.
well, the rain didn't make the sand firm exactly, it just made it so dust didn't blow around. The first quarter inch was compact, the rest was all squishy and sandy! Perfect for running down. We also made some sand angels We had Andy as well.
Recent posts in the CCAD thread explain it, for now (at least), it's through CA.org. But you're right, a real group at CCAD does sound like fun. I think there's sketchbook nights there, or at least there were.
Well, as for my own sketchbook thread, I feel like it fails in that it needs to be updated... Problem is that I don't have a working scanner, and I've had a horrible case of Da Vinci Syndrome (a large amount of started projects that aren't finished because I decided to start more stuff...).
I might post some of my started work by just taking digital pictures of it.
nice stuff man!
pld: NEED CRITIQUE! But BEWARE your Eyes might BLEED OUT of YOUR eye SOCKETS <---cause I really suck and haven't done shit pld:
My Sketch Book!
Here's one of the many things I've started (self-portrait). I'll have some stuff going on in the background. It's 9 X 12. I'm doing it in mechanical pencil (only thing I'll use to draw with).

I'm astonished at the grasp you had with oils as early as 8th grade. Oils are definately your strongest work. The SP is great as are the details of your bro. Keep it up.
Need more updates here as well. Me and Sean were talking about your pieces before we even saw you, saying that you were crazy awesome when it came to anything in the realm of art. And its true, you are awesome, would like to see more of your sketches also. Ill be posting soon and I think phong and Sean as well. I need to do more SP's. Seeing yours make me want to curl up in a dark corner and cry for days on end. Youve got a gift.
You know, Kirsten I would love to just sit down for a few hours and watch you paint. I would probably gain more insight on how i SHOULD be painting in that amount of time just by observing than any amount of practice can bring me.
I applaud you
Excellent stuff all around. You're right about the details as they're a bit too busy in some areas. They're really nice to look at though. Robert Henri wrote in his book that completion does not depend on material representation but rather on the condition that a special thing you want to say has been said, or something like that. The quote was referring to portraits, but I believe the same idea could be apply to any work of art. A good thing to do is to squint or back away so you can see all the masses. If you keep your shapes simple your images will read better. There's a very helpful tutorial at http://simplestroke.com/ that shows a pretty solid approach to painting.
The Rune Escape piece is my favorite because of the strong lighting and beautiful renderings. I think it could use some cool lighting from the monitor to balance out all the warm colors though. It should connect the two parts too (guy and monitor)
The detail in the grape juice bottle and the keyboard are absolutely insane.
I hope we end up in the same painting class
Woah amazing sketchbook! Some very wicked stuff you have here! Love the haster with wings! Also the painting of your brother on computer is mind blowing! How keyboard,the computer and everything is realistic...crazy.
Keep updating!
~B. Klarić
Thank you all for the comments! I hope to get some of my drawings/started projects up here so perhaps I can show a less detail-oriented side of myself.
Ok, now for why I'm nervous. The oil paintings I've done are in the style of the Old Masters. This means that I use mediums that thins the paint down considerably so that I'm able to make very fine glazes. This method takes a lot of time. While the medium accelerates the drying process, it can still take as much as a half a day drying time in between layers (at least in the beginning). I also don't work on canvas but instead sort of a masonite board.
I should've branched out and tried a more conventional painting style (like oils without any medium on canvas), but I was working on pieces for Scholastic. Now, while this contest helped me, it hurt me in that I was afraid to try other methods of painting for fear the work wouldn't be good enough to enter. This was because I hardly had time during the school year to paint, so I had to do "good" work when I could.
My point of saying all that is to say that I probably know less about the "type of painting we'll be doing at CCAD" than any of you. Please don't watch me as I try to discover how to paint on the fabric with that annoying texture called "canvas"! I'm so doomed... I should buy some canvas and practice but I don't have my oils with me...
I don't think I've ever painted Alla Prima or anything. Impressionism scares the heck out of me.
I'll probably be asking you guys technique questions about such things.

Induction cooking
Induction cooking uses induction heating to cause a cooking vessel to become heated, as opposed to using heat transfer from electrical coils or a gas flame as with a traditional cooking stove. For nearly all models of induction cooktop, a cooking vessel must be made of a ferromagnetic metal such as cast iron or stainless steel. Copper, glass and aluminum vessels can be placed on an interface disk which enables these materials to be used.
In an induction cooker, a coil of copper wire is placed underneath the cooking pot. An alternating electric current flows through the coil, which produces an oscillating magnetic field. This field induces an electric current in the pot. Current flowing in the metal pot produces resistive heating which heats the food. While the current is large, it is produced by a low voltage.
An induction cooker is faster and more energy-efficient than a traditional electric cooking surface. It allows instant control of cooking energy similar to gas burners. Other cooking methods use flames or red-hot heating elements; induction heating heats only the pot. Because the surface of the cook top is heated only by contact with the vessel, the possibility of burn injury is significantly less than with other methods. The induction effect does not directly heat the air around the vessel, resulting in further energy efficiencies. Cooling air is blown through the electronics but emerges only a little warmer than ambient temperature.
The magnetic properties of a steel vessel concentrate the induced current in a thin layer near its surface, which makes the heating effect stronger. In non-magnetic materials like aluminum, the magnetic field penetrates too far, and the induced current encounters little resistance in the metal.[1] At least one high-frequency "all metal" cooker is available, that works with lower efficiency on non-magnetic metal cookware.
An induction cooker transfers electrical energy by induction from a coil of wire into a metal vessel that must be ferromagnetic. The coil is mounted under the cooking surface, and a large alternating current is passed through it. The current creates a dynamic magnetic field. When an electrically conductive pot is brought close to the cooking surface, the magnetic field induces eddy currents in the pot. The eddy currents flow through the electrical resistance of the pot to produce heat; the pot then in turn heats its contents by heat conduction.
The cooking vessel is made of stainless steel or iron. The increased magnetic permeability of the material decreases the skin depth, concentrating the current near the surface of the metal, and so the electrical resistance will be further increased. Some energy will be dissipated wastefully by the current flowing through the resistance of the coil. To reduce the skin effect and consequent heat generation in the coil, it is made from litz wire, which is a bundle of many smaller insulated wires in parallel. The coil has many turns, while the bottom of the pot effectively forms a single shorted turn. This forms a transformer that steps down the voltage and steps up the current. The resistance of the pot, as viewed from the primary coil, appears larger. In turn, most of the energy becomes heat in the high-resistance steel, while the driving coil stays cool.
The cooking surface is made of a glass-ceramic material which is a poor heat conductor, so only a little heat is lost through the bottom of the pot. In normal operation the cooking surface stays cool enough to touch without injury after the cooking vessel is removed.
Units may have one, two, three, four or five induction zones, but four (normally in a 30-inch-wide unit) is the most common in the US and Europe. Two coils are most common in Hong Kong and three are most common in Japan. Some have touch-sensitive controls. Some induction stoves have a memory setting, one per element, to control the time that heat is applied. At least one manufacturer makes a "zoneless" induction cooking surface with multiple induction coils. This allows up to five utensils to be used at once anywhere on the cooking surface, not just on pre-defined zones.[2]
Small stand-alone portable induction cookers are relatively inexpensive, priced from around US$20 in some markets.
Cookware for an induction cooking surface will be generally the same as used on other stoves. Some cookware or packaging is marked with symbols to indicate compatibility with induction, gas, or electric heat. Induction cooking surfaces work well with any pans with a high ferrous metal content at the base. Cast iron pans and any black metal or iron pans will work on an induction cooking surface. Stainless steel pans will work on an induction cooking surface if the base of the pan is a magnetic grade of stainless steel. If a magnet sticks well to the sole of the pan, it will work on an induction cooking surface. An "all-metal" cooker will work with non-ferrous cookware, but available models are limited.
For frying, a pan with a base that is a good heat conductor is needed to spread the heat quickly and evenly. The sole of the pan will be either a steel plate pressed into the aluminum, or a layer of stainless steel over the aluminum. The high thermal conductivity of aluminum pans makes the temperature more uniform across the pan. Stainless frying pans with an aluminum base will not have the same temperature at their sides as an aluminum sided pan will have. Cast iron frying pans work well with induction cooking surfaces but the material is not as good a thermal conductor as aluminum.
When boiling water, the circulating water spreads the heat and prevents hot spots. For products such as sauces, it is important that at least the base of the pan incorporates a good heat conducting material to spread the heat evenly. For delicate products such as thick sauces, a pan with aluminum throughout is better, since the heat flows up the sides through the aluminum, allowing the cook to heat the sauce rapidly but evenly .[citation needed]
Aluminum or copper alone does not work on an induction stove because of the materials' magnetic and electrical properties.[3] Aluminum and copper cookware are more conductive than steel, and the skin depth in these materials is larger since they are non-magnetic. The current flows in a thicker layer in the metal, encounters less resistance and so produces less heat. The induction cooker will not work efficiently with such pots.
The heat that can be produced in a pot is a function of the surface resistance. A higher surface resistance produces more heat for similar currents. This is a "figure of merit" that can be used to rank the suitability of a material for induction heating. The surface resistance in a thick metal conductor is proportional to the resistivity divided by the skin depth. Where the thickness is less than the skin depth, the actual thickness can be used to calculate surface resistance.[3] Some common materials are listed in this table.
Material | Resistivity (10−6 ohm-inches) |
Relative permeability |
Skin depth, inches |
Surface resistance, 10−3 ohms/square (thick material) |
Surface resistance, Relative to copper |
Carbon steel 1010 | 9 | 200 | 0.004 | 2.25 | 56.25 |
Stainless steel 432 | 24.5 | 200 | 0.007 | 3.5 | 87.5 |
Stainless steel 304 | 29 | 1 | 0.112 | 0.26 | 6.5 |
Aluminum | 1.12 | 1 | 0.022 | 0.051 | 1.28 |
Copper | 0.68 | 1 | 0.017 | 0.04 | 1 |
To get the same surface resistance as with carbon steel would require the metal to be thinner than is practical for a cooking vessel; a copper vessel bottom would be 1/56th the thickness of the carbon steel pot. Since the skin depth is inversely proportional to the square root of the frequency, this suggests that much higher frequencies (say, several megahertz) would be required to obtain equivalent heating in a copper pot as in an iron pot at 24 kHz. Such high frequencies are not feasible with inexpensive power semiconductors; in 1973 the silicon-controlled rectifiers used were limited to no more than 40 kHz.[3] Even a thin layer of copper on the bottom of a steel cooking vessel will shield the steel from the magnetic field and make it unusable for an induction top.[3] Some additional heat is created by hysteresis losses in the pot due to its ferromagnetic nature, but this creates less than ten percent of the total heat generated.[4]
"All metal" models[edit]
New types of power semiconductors and low-loss coil designs have made an all-metal cooker possible, but the electronic components are relatively bulky.
Panasonic Corporation in 2009 developed a consumer induction cooker that uses a higher-frequency magnetic field, and a different oscillator circuit design, to allow use with non-ferrous metals.[5][6]
First patents date from the early 1900s.[7] Demonstration stoves were shown by the Frigidaire division of General Motors in the mid-1950s[8] on a touring GM showcase in North America. The induction cooker was shown heating a pot of water with a newspaper placed between the stove and the pot, to demonstrate the convenience and safety. This unit, however, was never put into production.
Modern implementation in the USA dates from the early 1970s, with work done at the Research & Development Center of Westinghouse Electric Corporation at Churchill Borough, near Pittsburgh,[3] That work was first put on public display at the 1971 National Association of Home Builders convention in Houston, Texas, as part of the Westinghouse Consumer Products Division display.[citation needed] The stand-alone single-burner range was named the Cool Top Induction Range. It used paralleled Delco Electronics transistors developed for automotive electronic ignition systems to drive the 25 kHz current.
Westinghouse decided to make a few hundred production units to develop the market. Those were named Cool Top 2 (CT2) Induction ranges. The development work was done at the same R&D location, by a team led by Bill Moreland and Terry Malarkey. The ranges were priced at $1,500, including a set of high quality cookware made of Quadraply, a laminate of stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum and another layer of stainless steel (outside to inside).
Production took place in 1973 through to 1975 and stopped, coincidentally, with the sale of Westinghouse Consumer Products Division to White Consolidated Industries Inc.
CT2 had four burners of about 1,600 watts each. The range top was a Pyroceram ceramic sheet surrounded by a stainless-steel bezel, upon which four magnetic sliders adjusted four corresponding potentiometers set below. That design, using no through-holes, made the range proof against spills. The electronic section was made in four identical modules cooled by fans.
In each of the electronics modules, the 240V, 60 Hz domestic line power was converted to between 20V to 200V of continuously variable DC by a phase-controlled rectifier. That DC power was in turn converted to 27 kHz 30 A (peak) AC by two arrays of six paralleled Motorola automotive-ignition transistors in a half-bridge configuration driving a series-resonant LC oscillator, of which the inductor component was the induction-heating coil and its load, the cooking pan. The circuit design, largely by Ray Mackenzie,[9] successfully dealt with certain bothersome overload problems.
Control electronics included functions such as protection against over-heated cook-pans and overloads. Provision was made to reduce radiated electrical and magnetic fields.[10][11] There was also magnetic pan detection.[12]
CT2 was UL Listed and received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approval, both firsts. Numerous patents were also issued. CT2 won several awards, including Industrial Research Magazine's IR-100 1972 best-product award [13] and a citation from the United States Steel Association. Raymond Baxter demonstrated the CT2 on the BBC series Tomorrow's World. He showed how the CT2 could cook through a slab of ice.
Sears Kenmore sold a free-standing oven/stove with four induction-cooking surfaces in the mid-1980s (Model Number 103.9647910). The unit also featured a self-cleaning oven, solid-state kitchen timer and capacitive-touch control buttons (advanced for its time). The units were more expensive than standard cooking surfaces.
In 2009 Panasonic developed an all-metal induction cooker that used a different coil design and a higher operating frequency to allow operation with non-ferrous metal cookware. However, the units operate with somewhat reduced coupling efficiency and so have reduced power compared to operation with ferrous cookware.
Induction equipment may be a built-in surface, part of a range, or a standalone surface unit. Built-in and rangetop units typically have multiple elements, the equivalent of separate burners on a gas-fueled range. Stand-alone induction modules are usually single-element, or sometimes have dual elements. All such elements share a basic design: an electromagnet sealed beneath a heat-resisting glass-ceramic sheet that is easily cleaned. The pot is placed on the ceramic glass surface and begins to heat up, along with its contents.
In Japan, some models of rice cookers are powered by induction. In Hong Kong, power companies list a number of models.[14] Asian manufacturers have taken the lead in producing inexpensive single-induction-zone surfaces; efficient, low-waste-heat units are advantageous in densely populated cities with little living space per family, as many Asian cities are. Induction cookers are less frequently used in other parts of the world.
Induction ranges may be applicable in commercial restaurant kitchens. Electric cooking avoids the cost of natural gas piping and in some jurisdictions may allow simpler ventilation and fire suppression equipment to be installed.[15] Drawbacks for commercial use include possible breakages of the glass cook-top, higher initial cost and the requirement for magnetic cookware.
This form of flameless cooking has certain advantages over conventional gas flame and electric cookers, as it provides rapid heating, improved thermal efficiency, and greater heat consistency, yet with precise control similar to gas.[16] In situations in which a hotplate would typically be dangerous or illegal, an induction plate is ideal, as it creates no heat itself.
The high efficiency of power transfer into the cooking vessel makes heating food faster on an induction cooking surface than on other electric cooking surfaces. Because of the high efficiency, an induction element has heating performance comparable to a typical consumer-type gas element, even though the gas burner would have a much higher power input.[17]
Induction cookers are safer to use than conventional cookers because there are no open flames. The surface below the cooking vessel is no hotter than the vessel; only the pan generates heat. The control system shuts down the element if a pot is not present or not large enough. Induction cookers are easy to clean because the cooking surface is flat and smooth, even though it may have several heating zones. Since the cooking surface is not directly heated, spilled food does not burn on the surface.
Since heat is being generated by an induced electric current, the unit can detect whether cookware is present (or whether its contents have boiled dry) by monitoring how much power is being absorbed. That allows functions such as keeping a pot at minimal boil or automatically turning an element off when cookware is removed.
Because the cook top is shallow compared to a gas-fired or electrical coil cooking surface, wheelchair access can be improved; the user's legs can be below the counter height and the user's arms can reach over the top.[16]
Cookware must be compatible with induction heating; glass and ceramics are unusable, as are solid copper or solid aluminum cookware for most models of cooker. Cookware must have a flat bottom since the magnetic field drops rapidly with distance from the surface. (Special and costly wok-shaped units are available for use with round-bottom woks.) Induction disks are metal plates—much like a skillet with no sides—that heat up non-ferrous pots by contact, but these sacrifice much of the power and efficiency of direct use of induction in a compatible cooking vessel. Further, cheap induction cookers regulate the transmitted power by simply powering the field on and off for specified times, like most microwave ovens do. If a pot with a thin bottom is used, the contained liquid boils intermittently. This does not occur with cookware that has a thicker bottom or with better induction cookers.
Manufacturers advise consumers that the glass ceramic top can be damaged by impact, although cooking surfaces are required to meet minimal product safety standards for impact.[18] Aluminum foil can melt onto the top and cause permanent damage or cracking of the top. Damage by impact also relates to sliding pans across the cooking surface, which users are advised against. As with other electric ceramic cooking surfaces there may be a maximum pan size allowed by the manufacturer.
A small amount of noise is generated by an internal cooling fan. Audible noise (a hum or buzz) may be produced by cookware exposed to high magnetic fields, especially at high power if the cookware has loose parts; better-grade cookware with welded-in cladding layers and solid riveting should not produce this type of noise. Some users may detect a whistle or whine sound from the cookware, or from the power electronic devices. Some cooking techniques available when cooking over a flame are not applicable. Persons with implanted cardiac pacemakers or other electronic medical implants are usually instructed to avoid sources of magnetic fields; the medical literature seems to suggest that proximity to induction cooking surfaces is safe, but they should always check first with their cardiologists.[19] Radio receivers near the unit may pick up some electromagnetic interference.
An induction (or any electric) stove will not operate during a power outage. Older gas-stoves do not need electric power to operate; however, modern gas-stoves with electrical ignition require an external ignition source (e.g. matches) during power outages.
Efficiency and environmental impact[edit]
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the efficiency of energy transfer for an induction cooker is 84%, versus 74% for a smooth-top non-induction electrical unit, for an approximate 10% saving in energy for the same amount of heat transfer.[20]
Energy efficiency is the ratio between energy delivered to the food and that consumed by the cooker, considered from the "customer side" of the energy meter. Cooking with gas has an energy efficiency of about 40% at the customer's meter and can be raised only by using very special pots,[21] so the DOE efficiency value will be used.
When comparing consumption of energies of different kinds, in this case natural gas and electricity, the method used by the US Environmental Protection Agency refers to source (also called primary) energies. They are the energies of the raw fuels that are consumed to produce the energies delivered on site.[22] The conversion to source energies is done by multiplying site energies by appropriate source-site ratios. Unless there are good reasons to use custom source-site ratios (for example for non US residents or on-site solar), EPA states that "it is most equitable to employ national-level ratios".[23] These ratios amount to 3.34 for electricity purchased from the grid, 1.0 for on-site solar, and 1.047 for natural gas. The natural gas figure is slightly greater than 1 and mainly accounts for distribution losses. The energy efficiencies for cooking given above (84% for induction and 40% for gas) are in terms of site energies at the customer's meters. The (US averaged) efficiencies recalculated relative to source fuels energies are hence 25% for induction cooking surfaces using grid electricity, 84% for induction cooking surfaces using on-Site Solar, and 38% for gas burners.
Source-site ratios are not formalized yet in Western Europe. A common consensus should arise on unified European ratios in view of the extension of the Energy Label to domestic water heaters. Unofficial figures for European source-site ratios are about 2.2 for electricity, 1.0 for on-site solar, and 1.02 for natural gas, thus giving overall (referred to source energy) efficiencies of 38% and 84% for induction cooking surfaces (depending on source electricity) and 39% for gas burners.
These provisional figures need to be somehow adjusted due to the higher gas burner efficiency, allowed in Europe by a less stringent limit on carbon monoxide emission at the burner. European and US standards differ in test conditions. The US ANSI Z21.1 standard allows a lower concentration of carbon monoxide (0.08%), compared to the European standard EN 30-1-1 which allows 0.2%.[24][25] The minimum gas burner efficiency required in the EU by EN 30-2-1 is 52%,[25] higher than the average 40% efficiency measured in US by DOE. The difference is mainly due to the weaker CO emission limit in EU, that allows more efficient burners, but also due to different ways in which the efficiency measurements are performed.
Whenever local electricity emits less than 435 grams of CO2 per kWh, the greenhouse effect of an induction cooker will be lower than that of a gas cooker. This again comes from the relative efficiencies (84% and 40%) of the two surfaces and from the standard 200 (±5) grams CO2/kWh emission factor for combustion of natural gas at its net (low) calorific value.[improper synthesis?]
Gas cooking efficiencies may be lower if waste heat generation is taken into account. Especially in restaurants, gas cooking can significantly increase the ambient temperature in localized areas. Not only may extra cooling be required but zoned venting may be needed to adequately condition hot areas without overcooling other areas. Costs must be considered on an individual situation due to numerous variables in temperature differences, facility layout or openness, and heat generation schedule. Induction cooking using grid electricity may surpass gas efficiencies when waste heat and air comfort are quantified.

The market for induction stoves is dominated by German manufacturers, such as AEG, Bosch, Fissler, Miele, and Siemens. The Spanish company Fagor, Italian firm Smeg, Sweden's Electrolux, and Slovenia's Gorenje are also key players in the European market. Prices range from about GB£250 to 1,000 within the United Kingdom. In 2006, Stoves launched the UK's first domestic induction range cooker at a slightly lower cost than those imported.
The European induction cooking market for hotels, restaurants and other caterers is primarily satisfied by smaller specialist commercial induction catering equipment manufacturers such as Adventys of France, Induced Energy of Brackley in the UK, Control Induction and Target Catering Equipment of the UK and Scholl of Germany.
Taiwanese and Japanese electronics companies are the dominant players in induction cooking for East Asia. After aggressive promotions by utilities in HK like Power HK Ltd, many local brands like UNIVERSAL, icMagIC, Zanussi, iLighting, German Pool also emerged. Their power and ratings are high, more than 2,800 watts. They are multiple zone and capable of performing better than their gas counterpart. The efficiency is as high as 90% and saves a lot of energy and is environmentally friendly. Their use by local Chinese for wok cooking is becoming popular. Some of these companies have also started marketing in the West. However, the product range sold in Western markets is a subset of that in their domestic market; some Japanese electronics manufacturers only sell domestically.
In the United States, as of early 2013 there are over five dozen brands of induction-cooking equipment available, including both build-in and countertop residential equipment and commercial-grade equipment. Even restricting to build-in residential-use units, there are over two dozen brands being sold; residential countertop units add another two-dozen-plus brands to the count.
The National Association of Home Builders in 2012 estimated that, in the United States, induction cooktops held only 4% of sales, compared to gas and other electric cooktops.[26]
In April 2010, The New York Times reported that "In an independent survey last summer by the market research company Mintel of 2,000 Internet users who own appliances, only 5 percent of respondents said they had an induction range or cooktop. . . . Still, 22 percent of the people Mintel surveyed in connection to their study last summer said their next range or cooktop would be induction."[27]

I have two main comments on the interview to Prof Banerjee. I dont know the health situation of Asia but I know quite well the one of Sub-Saharan Africa. The fact that people have a contact 6 times every year, on average, with "health structures" (either formal or informal) might not mean that people in low-income countries seek treatment more frequentently than people in high-income countries. It might simply mean that they get sick more frequently or that just one contact is not enough to resolve their illness. The second comment is relative to microcredit. I agree on that microcredit cannot have a strong impact. This type of intervention does not change the existing infrastructures of a country, which are likely to act as contraints to the magnitude of the impact of microcredit. However, microcredit, in my opinion, could have a stronger impact if such structural limitations are deeply analysed and taken into account before giving loans to the potential recipients. Microcredit needs to be more contextualized than it has been done until now.

text: Intel research in platform power management is a new approach to power management that is poised to deliver dramatic reductions in power to future Intel products. While Intel and others have continued to improve the efficiency of various platform subsystems, efforts to achieve significant reductions in total power consumption have been hampered by the inability to broadly modify behavior across the platform. By researching a new framework for power management that coordinates behavior across the platform we have been able to demonstrate dramatic power reductions in a single generation of product which traditionally would have taken multiple generations to achieve.

Deschooling Society"Deschooling Society (1971) is a book that brought Ivan Illich to public attention. It is a critical discourse on education as practised in modern economies. Full of detail on programs and concerns, the book gives examples of the ineffectual nature of institutionalized education. According to a contemporary review in The Libertarian Forum, "Illich's advocacy of the free market in education is the bone in the throat that is choking the public educators." -- from Wikipedia. |

Majors: The classes is not satisfying me and I am honestly just expecting more.The classes do not really match up with my major. If i could go back i would want to have $50 to send off my application to get into the college i wanted to go to instead of being somewhere I do not enjoy spending my college time at. I just hope and pray I have the money to pay off my balances to send my transcripts so i can get accepted into the college in the spring semester I've always wanted to go to.
Majors: i do not recall becuase i have not done an internship
Majors: it was expecting a little more for my major
Majors: I didnt encounter hardly any difficulties trying to getting into my program. Benedict College Help me choose my major/proogram that best fit me. Grade point average was the most important criteria for admisson, it was farely easy to get accepted. Mass communication is my program, I didnt not have to do any abnormal application process
Majors: I never had an internship, but I do plan on getting one. I want to do an internship because I feel like it would help me out in the future and it would look good on my resume. I do not have any concerns about finding an internship.
