Floyd Mayweather Calls Radio Host Rude Jude And Gets Called Out For Ducking Fights.
Audio may not be work safe.
Jose Aldo vs mayweather
whoever this dj is IM HIS NEW BIGGEST FAN!!! he did exactly wtf i'd do if i got on the phone with gayweather's punk-ass. this mofo is always bringing up race i think he is complete fool & I'm black! f*ck mayweather!
bWAAAA HAHAHAHAH!! I'M GOOGLING THIS RADIO GUY UP! ADD ME TO HIS FAN LISt
Real fighters dont duck especially when there being told there ducking. Real fighters always look to challenge themselves and call out the best fighters.
dmfh1981 ….your black but your a Massa's boy..i can tell! and i'm half white! i've seen black people like you before deep down you hate being black! type of black man that likes to see other black men fail!…like a Rapper!
gayweather got owned!
Jr gets hate just like silva!…just like Ali did back in the day! some people just don't like to see black men doing well..bottom line! it's so not about race but the hate of these great fighters comes mainly from non-black so-called fighting fans!…so what's that about?…RACE! get the f**k out of here! Nazi MF's!
Rude Jude you are my hero. FOr the second time on mmatko.com Fuc* you Gayweather!!!!
gonewheather has major problems…moronic
Ricky Hatton is certainly NOT a bum! Everything else I agree with though
Radio host is so pathetic, he won't let Mayweather speak.
An Italian trying to sound Black…that's worse than Mayweather "ducking" "dog"..
London Jones…. You have it all wrong.. Non Blacks dont care when blacks are doing well in life. We just hate to see Blacks act all gangster but when it comes time to fight they run, hide, uses excuses and lie… He wont fight the same reason silva doesnt want to fight sonnen… He is scared.. Plain and simple. so of course fight fans are going to call him. out… GSP is boring but he fights… why? Cause he isnt a fake thug….
Rude Jude talks black until the cops show up. Lesson to "wiggers" is that they can't fake the experience and it only works on white people
Mayweather got owned, so badly. He made himself look horrible. Radio guy speaks the truth.
Dont like this Jude guy ,Have some respect, love him or hate him your talking to one of boxings elite *PERIOD*!!
LOL yessssssss
Gayweather. What a piece of crap. Hope Manny kills you.
Excellent point that Pac whups the same contenders much worse without taking any damage. They may need to be judged on this criteria. Mayweather will never get the one thing he wants the most, "the greatest ever" title unless he fights Pac, and not when they are 40 years old. I'm glad this commentator called him out. Mayweather has placed himself into a box of people that don't challenge him on this issue.
if you defend mayweather after this you're an idiot. i'm talking to you Ozinator, T'Challa, xformat, and london jones. stfu dumbasses
Money May don't PLAY you wanna fight the best take the TEST!!! I love how real Floyd keeps it always 100 hunned!
Gayweather is not use to people telling him the truth. He wouldn't have got so mad if it wasn't true. The whole f****** world knows that he's ducking Pacman
Either fight Pacman or stop denying that your ducking him.
I disagree with the radio host about Ricky Hatton, he is a legit fighter
this guy is hilarious hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Mayweather "the person" is such a joke. He's the first person to start talking about race in this interview, then he pulls the race card, and then call the host a fagg@t, lol. Mayweather "the boxer" has ducked Margarito, Cotto, and Pacman for years.
Mayweather is doing so much "ducking" he's started growing a beak and webs between his toes.
Some of these posts are ridiculous. Mayweather brings up race because he's a RETARD. Those who agree are just as dumb.
About time he got called out for ducking. He's a pro! Quit fighting cans and prove yourself.
The Radio guy isnt black..why does he try to sound black? be it as it may…Mayweather is ducking a fight he knows he will lose. Annoying to listen to two idiots argue. I hope Mayweather puts a hit out on the radio guy….radio guy gets killed and Mayweather gets caught and goes to jail for the rest of his life. that's what would make me happy….wait actually I wont be happy until Mayweather gets sodimized in prison 50 times by a arian white power gang and then he is eventually shanked after he spends 10 years of hard time.
mata GSP!!..get the F**k out of here!….sonnen PED!!…Mata if Silva took the piss out of so-called america like sonnen has to Brazil what do you think would happen Nazi-boy???
Gayweather they say!….OHHHHhhh…how witty of you all(SMH)!!..your fathers are Gay!
Man! finally somebody is calling this guy out for all the nonsense bullshit he has done to Boxing. Stop ducking bud, if you weren't ducking you wouldn't be so pissed and defensive. Like they say "the truth hurts". Prove that you're the best homie, don't be scared of Pacquiao.
Just curious, didn't Mayweather offer Manny 30Million to fight him with an olympic steroid test? Something along those lines. Is this true?
Is that the same Rude Jude from the Jenny Jone's show from back in the day?
Fighters have the hardest Job. If your Mayweather or anyone els, if you decide to turn down a fight some c********* who's never been in a fight in there life will say that your ducking people. Mayweather just need to undersand that "hoe's will be hoe's so you can't blame Tammy"
Wow, a lot of people are displaying their utter ignorance by making huge generalizations about race. It seems to me that things happen on a case by case basis and people are individuals that aren't bound by the confines of your supposed social norms. dmfh, london jones, t'challa, mata, ozinator, take your heads out of your asses. Every time you make asinine generalized comments about race it perpetuates the problem with racism that is very apparent in our country and around the globe.
the truth is the truth Mayweather is really a bum stop ducking fights and he really havent fought no major guys he picks his fight and runs in the ring the only true fight was with De La Hoja and De La Hoya was lighting that ass up thats why boxing is the way it is today crap why didnt he fought Miguel cotto monkey knows wat tree he climbs jajaja bum ass n…ah
No Manny didn't agree to random blood testing for the fight with Mayweather he refused to take random blood test up till 14 days before the fight! He turned down $100 million to avoid taking that test!?! Floyd takes olympic style test 4 every fight why does Manny want to fight the best but not take the test? Floyd would take the exact same blood test as Manny at the exact same point in random time? They're 8th deaths a year in boxing it has the most outdated form of testing of any sport to date!
Manny agreed to Olympic testing, and when he agreed, Mayweather attempted to keep him from training outside of the United States for half of his camp (which Manny does for EVERY SINGLE FIGHT).
Boxing is the only sport in which athletes are allowed to dictate such ridiculous terms. There's an athletic commission for a reason; abide by the terms set down by them and shut the F*** up. If Mayweather is really the greatest, he'll take the fight and win.
There's no reason to not take this fight. He's bigger, stronger, and according to him, better. Not to mention this will be the biggest payday he's ever had and one of the most lucrative fights in boxing's illustrious history.
Fight and prove you're the best, or shut the F*** up.
Also, he does need to stop bringing race into everything. Mayweather's automatic defense is "you hate me because I'm black." Meanwhile, I hate Mayweather because he talks s***, doesn't back it up, cheapshots Ortiz, and beats his girlfriend in front of his kids. Oh, and makes racial slurs at Pacquiao and constantly throws the word "f*****" around.
He's a hypocrite and a coward.
I'm a new fan of this guy Jude Rude for sure!!!! Solid interview bro, I will be tuning into your s*** more often. Thanks Jude Rude!… Mayweather you're a duckin little bitch!!
@ london_jones…..if i 'hated being black', i wouldn't have said/wrote it you waste of skin, irrelevant idiot! What was said on the tape, & i quote…'all black people support him.' All i said is that I'm black & i don't suppose him. You see Mr Hater, i mean Jones, I'm not one of these guys on here that just type, i actually DO fight & if i was getting paid 30mil a fight i'd either stfu & be happy or stop running my stupid ignorant mouth (kind of you AND Gayweather). in closing, when you start making 6 figures, THEN you have permission to type 'dmfh1981′ k? until then keep up the ignorance!
this thread is hilarious and so is mayweather… its cause im black! i remember when my friends used that back in 5th grade hahaha. thanks for the timewarp
i have a question for all the idiots and im not black at all but what does a black person sound like? and floyd is ducking and butt hurt over being called a ducker. and he is always playing th race care which is getting very old just fight and shut everyone up if your so secure
LOL @ "50 cent told me to call him", what a joke, 2 of the biggest wastes of skin, hey gayfeather nobody cares what you or that burnt match 50 cents says or does your a p**** fight or fuckoff your intellectual level is disturbing…
LOL OMG hearing Gaywether all bent out of shape was hilarious! HAHAHA…. fight the Pac and the world will leave u alone.
this dj is awesome
lol this is hilarious. I loved both of these guys, Mayweather is hilarious and how he gets so butt hurt. This argument is hilarious
two angry people called me out here, so I'll respond just for myself…
I have not stated any opinion on Mayweather ducking or not ducking. it has nothing to do with the host being ignorant.
Race IS relevant as is what I said about it here; Mayweather thought the host wasn't black and there is reason for that…it wasn't a lucky guess. A black guy using this type of vitriolic language (and lets be honest, we're not talking about an anomaly with an accent he was born to, the guy is dropping slang and going out of his way) to describe another black man makes white people feel VERY good about their own hatred of Mayweather. Mayweather may not be able to describe what I am (not that the louder mic'd DJ gave him a chance) but it made bringing up race very relevant. Is he ducking? sue looks like it. now back to the hate! lol
WTF what you racist piece of crap ^^^^^ Nobody cares what color mayweather is he IS DUKING MANNY!!!!!
When in doubt…."your racist" fuking easy way out if you ask me…
This radio host is a chump. Can talk all he wants sitting behind a cozy desk. Says undefeated don't mean d*ck and calls Hatton a bum? It's dickstains like this guy and Jim Rome that get popular from being a*******.
I don't understand why people hate on Mayweather. I'm guessing if he was a humble type person maybe people would like hime more SMH.. Mayweather is the Ali of our time, weather you like it or not. Ali had the same brashness and bravado. If Ali was in this time he would be the same way. The only real difference is that Ali was around during the civil right movement, so it made him seem more like a humanitarian. Mayweather has earned his position, and he backs his talk. Pac man has either fought guys who are way bigger than him and slow or fought guys who are smaller. I just can't wait for Mayweather to beat Pac Man so everybody will STFU. What are you guys gonna say when Pac man loses? Whatever you guys think Of MM, he is a force and is needed in the boxing game, Love him or hate him, He don't care because you guys keep buying hes PPV's, if you guys hate him so much then stop watching him.
… and another thing RUDE JUDE is a NOOB. Nobody even heard of him until Mayweather Blessed him. Rude Jude did this for his own self publicity. He is a NOOB, and will remain a NOOB. The guy has never put a pair of boxing gloves on in his life. Yeah MM could have shrugged him off, but he his a fighter so it's no surprise that he has an aggresive personality uh DUH… I would be mad too if some random dude was attacking my integrity and especially because he knows nothing about boxing. If you continuosly have another MANs name in your mouth your a HATER plain and simple, RUDE JUDE has no life, thats why he gossips about other peoples lifes. Just like Mayweather said " I jus made you famous" which he semi did. For the people who agree with this NOOB your jus as much as a HATER as he is, if not more, get a life fellas.
just another black anti-white racist idiot raised by the TV
Another thing.. The guys was pouring on his "urban slang way tooo much"..Lets keep it real fellaz, urban slang was made by black people. So thats why Mayweather brought up the "race card", Mayweather is from the hood, so he can pin point a "Faker" from a mile away. RUDE JUDE wishes he knew Fifty cent, shyt he wishes he knew money MAY. Mayweather basically called him out on his protrayal of trying to act like someone who is from the streets, RUDE JUDE is not from no streets, hes a SAP. Lets not all forget his gay five minutes of fame back in the day. Dude is irrelevant, he talks tuff, but I garuantee if you put him in the streets and he was confronted, his "urban Slang" would go away and he would be talking like Mr. Rogers, Guy is fake.
Thank you Ozinator, I didn't even say whether I thought he was ducking, but I was more annoyed by an Italian white guy trying to use Black American slang to dis Mayweather. It's a mockery, it would be like me interviewing Okami in a fake Japanese accent..
BTW, Mayweather can't stop the double leg (c)Nick Diaz..
captain america speaks the truth. why is it the race card comes out every time?? im white and my favourite music is hip hop, favourite artists are tupac, nas, and raekwon. But mayweather is a dick pure and simple. I dont hate blacks! put it this way… a dickhead in a wheelchair is a dickhead, not gna go easy cause of skin or situation. A prick is a prick an mayweather needs to wise the f**k up instead of listening to fiddy ass for rent
and one more thing… notice how when people give gayweather s*** about pacman that he never turns round and says 'ill fight him'. i wonder why? he never dares says 'ok thats get it on'. He's a disgrace to the undoubted talent that he has. could be the GOAF but wastes it
@bigbadman your right Hatton is not a bum but a crackhead. There was a recent video they surfaced on the net of him snorting crack. http://www.mmatko.com/former-boxing-world-champion-ricky-hatton-loves-his-cocaine-video/
Eff you Rude Jude!!! Money Weather would rip this host a new asshole. Pacquiao is the catchweight king when he knows his oppenents been damaged by Floyd. Floy destroyed everyone and was the lighter fighter.
ok here is the deal i never liked mayweather and i don't like him at all, but I think the radio host is an ass yes he could tell him he is ducking because thats what i always thought too but he was way too disrespectful. mayweather is a rude arrogant guy but i'm definitely not fan of this radio host with his attitude. I think any normal dude with a set of balls would smashed this radio host's face if he spoke to them that way. he could have made his point across and tell him straight up he is ducking the fight but he didn't have to talk that way.
HHAAHAHAHAHAHA Rude Jude just got a new fan never heard of him before that.
Pacquiao agreed to take the test…truth is mayweather is ducking pacquiao
Priceless! Hey, at least he gave mayweather credit for "beating" Ortiz… (although, well no need to say more…)
Mayweather is straight hood. An ignorant, scared, angry black man. Good luck to you if you find him admirable.
F*** all the Floyd haters! You ass-holes always try to manipulate a fighter into taking a fight that you wanna see no matter what the consequences may be. Y'all just mad because Floyd isn't mentally weak like Roy Jones Jr. and submit to your bullshit and take fights that he shouldn't have! He has a perfect record and he's trying to retire with it. You F***-tards are not in that ring taking blows, he is! Floyd will take the fight eventually when he's done milking it. Jose Aldo would beat Pac Man & Floyd in the same night of a tournament! And with Marquess of Queensberry handicapped!
If it sounds like a duck, walk like a duck and looks like a duck than it must to be Mayweather.
Aren't we all missing the point? Why wasn't there more emphasis put on the driver? Think about it…
All of this nonsense because y'all haters can't Jedi-mindtrick Floyd into taking a risky fight with PacMan??? Listen, Floyd is just doing what Floyd does, talk trash, hype the fight, create controversy, gets free perpetual promotion via detractors,win and collect millions by hitting and not getting hit. That's it. All this banter just keeps his brand relevant. Playing everyone like puppets on a string. Brilliant. Negativity and controversy sells. If being boring equates to hitting and not getting hit, then he's a genius at boxing as well as promotion! He'll eventually fight PacMan but on his own terms-nobody else's. Listening to the haters got Roy Jone's dumb ass knocked out multiple times and ruined his legacy tryin' to please you lames!
Mayweather may just be the biggest bitch on the planet.
oh s*** not only is mayweather a pussyfart bitch hes also gotta play the race card. bwahahaha race card is the single biggest sign of no intelligence whatsoever.
Rude Jude won tko over floydie!!! A rematch is due. I bet floydie will duck Jude as well!!!
I want rude jude vs manny!!! Gayweather is boring!!!
I love this guy … Long Live "the truth"
Im tired of racism. I think everybody should give it a rest. I dislike Mayweather because he is a disrespectful person not because his skin color. He mocks his opponents heritage (Oscar De La Hoya fight) So in my eyes he's the racist one and then tries to play the reverse race card? Dudes a scum bag and that's why people dont like him. On the other hand you can't deny the mans talent in the ring, but I definitely agree that he has been ducking the only big fight left in boxing, one in which he would probably make over $100 million if he won.
To all you Gayweather fans just face it! He's ducking fights and he bring's the race card every single time he's cornered. Stop backing him up and stop complaining about silly s***. Betting on him to win is one thing…but to be on his side when you know he's full of s*** is another.
LOL Great one Bruno!!! Stay duckin'… hahaha
just fight the PINO man !!!Mayweather is a f***** embarrassment
Finally decided to give this a listen cause I can't stand Mayweather and that was hilarious. Man he's a great fighter but he's also the worlds biggest vaginal cleansing applicator. I remember that vid on him where he's trying to convince people how humble he is and in the same breath says how much money he has and pulls a giant hand full of money out. LOL This dude's a ghetto cartoon stereotype x 1000. And I'm not sure why folks are saying the DJ's trying to sound "Black" but whatever.
All the "Tough" guys calling out Mayweather get into the Ring with him.
Mayweather never ducked any Fighter he fought undefeated top of the food chain guys and K.O'd em.
I'm NOT a Mayweather Fan but he can Fight/Box.
And he would KILL Aldo in a BOXING MATCH.
Mayweather has way too much speed and ability for Pac Man.
If f****** MIDGET MANUEL MARQUAZ CAN HANG WITH PAC MAN FOR 12 Rounds and HIT PAC MAN WTF DO YOU THINK MAYWEATHER WILL DO TO PAC MAN?
Yes he would connect more often and harder, KO Mayweather WINS 10th Round.
that was years ago yoda, gayweather is not a proud boxer anymore he's a duck or a chicken… nowadays getting stuck to his clean record…stop the bullshit and just challenge Pac to a fight…as he has agreed to every request Mayweather have put in the table…Pac-Mans only request is to fight him…period.

Sean Price: The full story
The Chief Constable of Cleveland Police, Sean Price, has been sacked after being found guilty of gross misconduct. A disciplinary hearing found he had lied to the police watchdog, and also tried to get a member of staff to lie for him.
Sean Price was being investigated over allegations he used undue influence to get a job for the daughter of his boss, the chairman of the police authority which oversees this force. He has been found guilty of lying about that, and getting a staff member to lie on his behalf.
There is a separate and unrelated investigation into alleged corruption called Operation Sacristy and Sean Price is currently on police bail in that inquiry. He faced 11 further allegations of professional misconduct as part of that inquiry, which he won't face, because he's no longer an officer.

SFB locks out 230 students from graduating this year
EDUCATION :Stalemate over supplementary examinations boils over
About 230 fourth-year students at the School of Finance and Banking (SFB), one of the most respected tertiary institutions in Rwanda, face the risk of not graduating in June this year if they are not allowed to sit their supplementary examinations.
This means that almost half of the 500 students leaving the institution at the end of this academic year, will have to stay at the university for one more year, unless a way can be found out of the stalemate.
And the students have another reason to worry; their plea, according to the students' guild, to be given a chance to sit for the supplementary examinations, has been rejected by the school administration.
Traditionally, university students in Commonwealth countries are allowed to re-sit units they have failed in the end of year examinations.
"We petitioned the administration but the Vice-Rector in charge of academics says that their policy prohibits supplementary examinations," said Guild president Steven Nankunda.
The affected students (mainly from the two Departments of Finance and Accounting) will have to wait for another year before they graduate from the university.
Students who talked to The New Times, yesterday, complained that those who fail examinations at the SFB are not allowed to sit supplementary exams, thus raising the number of those unable to graduate.
"Normally, university standards stipulate that students are allowed to re-sit examinations as a way of supplementing academic performance. It is not the case here," Fred Rwiririza, the leader of fourth year students said.
He said it was unfair that the students are required to pay Rwf 80,000 in order to retake one examination even after being forced to repeat the class.
Rwiririza also claimed that facilities at the institution were stretched, particularly the library and computer laboratory.
Other students complained that lecturers at times refuse to assist them complete their studies.
"We have students who do a lot of work on their project proposals because some supervisors do not respond to their queries. Sometimes they even refuse to pick up calls from students," claimed Livingstone Byakatonda, one of the affected students from the Department of Finance.
When contacted, for comment, the Vice Rector of the university, Dr Papius Musafiri, confirmed that some students will not graduate this year, but added that the final list of those not graduating was yet to be released.
"How can they graduate if they still have some dues from the previous semesters? The true number shall be known at the end of this semester because there are some remaining courses to cover," he said.
He said that the objective of the graduation should not be the number of graduates, but the quality of students that the institution is putting on the labour market.
Dr Musafiri's views were echoed by Professor Geoffrey Rugege, the Executive Director of the National Council for Higher Education. He backed the SFB for its "tough stand".
"Institutions of higher learning have the full freedom and autonomy to change their academic regulations to adopt what they consider the best practices," he said.
Rugege, however, said that all academic regulations are under review with the aim of making all universities adopt uniform standards by September this year.
Unlike the SFB, other universities in Rwanda are yet to abolish supplementary examinations.
"Its part and parcel of our regulations that students should be given another chance once they fail an examination," said Professor Silas Lwakabamba, the Rector of the National University of Rwanda.
Rwanda has more than 10 universities as demand for higher education rises sharply, sending about 3,000 graduates every year to the job market.

It is not only SFB that doesn't allow supplementary exams.The AUCA at Masoro has also the same policy.It is for quality and not quantity. Why are you always reporting unfairly about SFB only?
07:08:20 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Byagatonda Geoffrey
I think these students are going to be victimized over false pretexts from SFB authorities. This issue should be addressed from its root causes. I understand that SFB has adopted regulations which penalize students rather than helping them to acquire enough skills.It is a matter of getting money rather than promoting the quality of education they offer, some students have claimed. Please TNT follow this issue up
09:34:09 Thursday 01st, March 2012 kigali - Paul
Mr.Sam Nkurunziza and the readers,the students who repeat the courses have to pay 55,000Frw per course not 80,000Frw as written in the Article.Also the number of those who are going to repeat the year will increase or remain constant but can't reduce unless they are allowed to sit for supplementary exams because there are some other courses to cover.So,as said by Vice Rector Academic,the final list is not yet released.But meanwhile,the number of those students is not 230 as written in the Article,it is in the 280's.Thank you.
11:02:12 Thursday 01st, March 2012 SFB - Fred Rwiririza
I agree with Dr.Musafiri, Universities or other institutions of higher learning should not be factories that churn out half baked young people with high expectation and rock bottom abilities. I have read a few of the research proposals of the would be graduands, read their dissertation, interviewed many others for jobs, had the agony of reading poorly written application letters and Resumes and I think we are doing a disservice to this country if this what we are putting in the job market. We need to rethink our education strategy, refocus on quality of output in terms of what people really learn, acquire knowledge and are able to apply it. We also need to think seriously about what our desired outcome is for higher education, what do we really want to achieve? If we don't think about this now, then our hope of becoming a knowledge based economy will be a pipe dream.
11:57:51 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Emmanuel Murangira
I think its very unfair,students should be given another chance to re-write their examination,it beats my understanding as to why a student who fails one examination paper,sometimes by a single mark,should spend one more year in school,that's why I support the honourable Rector of NUR, students should be given another chance.I believe that forcing a student to repeat a year is not necessarily adding quality to their eduction,its instead wasting their time and money!
12:00:55 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Huye - Kabukumba Enock
I think that as SFB tries so hard to echo quality, they should remember it can't be achieved over night. quality will also come as a result of a lot of factors like good lecturers who we do not have, good facilities like libraries research centers which do not exist at the university.
13:32:45 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Richard Manzi
The Rwandan education policy makers should look at this issue of supplementary exams, i do not think it is fair to abolish supplementary exams at the university level and allow them to be done at secondary level. Students are used of supplementary examinations Please,concerned parties it should start with secondary schools.
16:35:13 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Samuel
This is dangerous. If you check history,you will realise there are certain policy makers who were doing re-sits during their University days...to later deny their siblings the same chance. This is also dangerous as it could promote corruption to astronomic proportions. If a girl/woman felt not able to make it first time they become too vulnerable to some unscrupulous teachers and guys might try to supplement their pass mark with cash.
16:38:08 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kacyiru - Maridadi Kennedy
Its so sad that sfb leaders have completely failed to accept defeat,i can't understand what quality they are talking about, forexample very many students in finance failed financial analysis of which problem is not theirs but administration,we are surely hurt and dumbfounded,great we have leaders who are only good at impressing media but can't make rational decisions

when we talk of quality students, we have to first look those students are trained from in terms facilities and qualiteness of the staff who teach them.The question is,are all those available at SFB for the SFB management to implement that strategy of removing supplementaries to produce that quality students? I think it is the work of the concerned parties to intervene and solve the problem accordingly. If not Rwandan students are continuing to be the victims of the stuation over there, of which i think it is not building "Ireme ry'uburezi.

The notorious Papias has become an academic and semi god in SFB during the whole of his stay there but worse of it is that they make pay a full term to some of their students they have dismissed frm SFB. Isn't that theft, really. Go and check you will discover such a swindle. And this is because of that MUSAFIRI Papias
17:48:30 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Minos Tite
@ Murangira Emmanuel,had you known the situation that is in SFB,you could not have said the above.SFB is in a serious FINANCIAL CRISIS to the extent that they need to get money by charging 55,000Frw per repeat course.So,they try by all means to increase the number of those to repeat hence making them fail by all means.Besides that,there no facilities like microphones,projectors,classrooms are small compared to the number of students,lecturers are expelled every now and then on no reasons,they are implementing Module System and yet they don't know it themselves(There are only 2 Lecturers only who were trained how this system works),........to mention but a few.In a nutshell,the situation at SFB is terrible,concerned organs should intervene.
20:14:32 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Rwangabwoba
For sure SFB is in a terrible situation let's leave alone the issue of supplementaries and look around with in SFB environment that is its staff for example,in the convenor's office there are like 5 people performing a simple task and yet you find that still there is no work done.Secondly,it's the career center how can a student who is still in school run this career center? and what advice do you think will be given to the students by this fellow student? Another thing is about how the courses are offered here in SFB,there is a course in Finance called Computer Application in Finance it's a practical course but we did it theoretically yet the computers were available just a mere issue of power installation made us to do it theoretically,we complained to the management there was no reaction on this.Please people concerned do what you can other wise what you are terming as quality Education can turn into any thing else.
20:41:10 Thursday 01st, March 2012 KIGALI - Mug EMMA
Me,I thank SFB students for showing much of respect to their leaders (the school management)because what they face on every day basis is beyond understanding.They are treated as Nursery school children.For sure,something should be done by higher level authorities.
21:17:09 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kimihurura - Gaudiose
So bad,fellow readers,when you look @ the number of students who are going out of SFB to other institutions either expelled or being tired of harsh conditions and then they decide to go,that is when you will realize how SFB is treating its students badly.
21:23:54 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Karakire
Oh!but SFB!why always SFB?!each and every year?!In 2010,there were about 200 students expelled immediately after the coming of this Dr.Papius at SFB.Last year,others were expelled and also a student was denied his rights of having the marks of which he worked for went to stay in a tree until the police and journalists came.This year,look,over 230 in fourth year only are going to repeat.This means,they are many who are going to repeat when we consider all the years i.e 1st,2nd,3rd and 4th years.Again,why always SFB?!Concerned authorities,please take action.Thank you.
21:47:25 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Muhanga - Jackline
Murangira Emmanuel thanks for your concern about the quality of students to be availed for the labour market,but i don't think this applies to sfb,if you keenly followed this you would discover that Dr.Msafiri is not doing this for quality but for bussiness,i mean to retain students so that they may Get money,u cannot i magine if leaders think that retaining students will ensure quality and yet many lecturers that teach many are not well qualified,i think quality lecturers,quality facilities like library and others facilities would ensure this,but not removing saps
23:20:10 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Emmy
for sure vice Rector papius some times he do things which is out of education most student from finance failed not b'se are weak in the course bt due to missunderstanding bwt lectuer
23:21:47 Thursday 01st, March 2012 kanombe - mutesi jackie
I thank our VRAC for his attempts to wish that students would be suitable for labour market,but i think he should revise his strategy in achieving this,many students who fail in sfb are as aresult of administration inneffeciences,if you look at finance students who failed it was as a result of teacher's mistakes ,this is eviidenced in even the pass marks of those who passed,none has above 60%,now is this passing if u want to achieve quality?i this this is the school's strategy to make money by removing saps and retain many students,its very sad
23:29:47 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Jack
I think the issue here is that SFB Management is looking solution to quality education on wrong way, penalizing students doesn't solve any problem of quality education, to tell you most of those students who failed never did supplementary exams since their year one, i think the institution should focus on the services its providing starting with infrastructures, lecturers, studying conditions then come back to students!! But if they only focus on students as a solution to quality education, i tell you, they won't reach anywhere and they wont achieve the quality there are talking of
23:42:09 Thursday 01st, March 2012 Kigali - Anonymous
You can know more about SFB when you go there.Poor management;poor infrastructures........Change is needed for sure.
11:34:15 Friday 02nd, March 2012 Gatsata - Bwoli
I don't even believe this is happening and students are helpless knowing that no one can help them!!!!!i wish his Excellency would know this whole sfb phenomenon,i have met people in life but Dr.Msafiri is just a mystery y ,how would u go on the media to lie talking of removing sap as ameans of ensuring quality when in actual sense it is not, not even close to that,look at students who have been retained,many have never even done a sap in their four years,others their cumulative average shows that they qualify for distinction,just the quarrel you picked with Nzamaru Ambrose who set a paper for CPA that we never studied and thus resulting into such unbelievable failures,first understand quality,if it is a quality way of getting money from students then that i can understand,its very sad that even if we talk we can't be helped,God should Judge such leaders
12:10:50 Friday 02nd, March 2012 kigali - Kamana
Everything has an end.There will be a time when poor management of SFB will end.Dear God, we believe you will make it.

When I saw last week' sketch, FTL170, I knew what I wanted to do. Once the ornaments were cut with my Silhouette, I stamped them with images from PTI's Mehndi Medallion set with VersMark and then adhered 3 together to make a 3-d ornament.
The sentiment is from PTI's A Wreath for All Seasons.
Well, today is my last day at work, I'll be on vacation; I have the next 10 days off! I am very excited and even though we aren't going anywhere....it'll be nice! I love sitting in my jammies and taking naps!
I most likely won't be posting next week....so I'll see ya the wek after Christmas!

News: Lil Kim Calls Out Jay-Z: "I'm At The Barclays Center Front Row" [Audio]
Wednesday, Oct 31, 2012 11:00PM
Brooklyn rapper Lil Kim has teamed up with Midwest rapper Tiffany Foxx for a new record dedicated to hip-hop mogul Jay-Z.
Simply titled "Jay-Z," the Queen Bee flaunts her Brooklyn status and even shouts out Jay's newly relocated Nets basketball team.
Kimmy's home. Lil' Kim pays homage to her fellow Brooklyn rapper on "Jay-Z," a collaboration with St. Louis MC Tiffany Foxx, who is signed to her label International Rock Star Records. The ladies trade bars on the bossy cut off Tiffany's mixtape Yellow Tape. "Allow me to reintroduce myself, the name's Queen Bee," raps the Brooklyn diva. "I'm at the Barclays Center front row, man/ I'm sitting so close, a b*tch looking like the coach." (Rap-Up)
Over the summer, producer/rapper Hit-Boy put out his "Jay-Z Interview" record.
"I had the name even before I wrote the song. I had the name for maybe two months -- maybe longer than that, maybe four months -- before I had even written the song," Hit-Boy revealed referring to "Jay-Z Interview." "I just knew that was a great title for a song and I just kept it, wrote it down in my notes, and finally got the right beat from [producer] Bink. I started hashtagging it and people just caught on. It became its own phenomenon and made it to TV. They [MTV's Hip Hop POV] showed it on TV and showed me the power of social media." (Vulture)
Back in early 2011, Kim admitted she turned down an opportunity to join Jay's Roc Nation label.
"I did get offers from representatives from Roc Nation and I did get phone calls from representatives from Roc Nation. A couple representatives from Def Jam had also reached out to me. I think they're both amazing companies and I think it would've been brilliant for me and Jay to collaborate and team up together. However it just didn't pan out like that. Not to say that something with me and Jay can't happen in the future, but I doubt if Jay-Z or Roc Nation will be a part of my upcoming album. He and I are really good friends. We both were excited about the idea of us collaborating and maybe me signing with Roc Nation. I think Jay-Z is letting me be Kim at this moment. I think he feels that I deserve to be Kim and also to have everything that... It's hard for record companies to sign females these days and give them exactly what they want and need. I understand that. It's a different world out there." (Rap-Up)
In 2010, rumors surfaced which claimed the Queen Bee officially teamed up with Young Hov.
Brooklyn's female rapper and actress Lil Kim has officially signed a record deal with Jay-Z label Roc Nation. This rumor has been floating around for a while, but earlier today, industry insiders confirmed this rumor. A major announcement should be made soon. As of press, no word on when Kim's new album will be dropping. The big homie Jay-Z is expected to be executive producing Kim's new album. Roc Nation is an entertainment, management, and music publishing company, founded in 2008 by Jay-Z. In 2009, Kanye West became the CEO. (Hip Hop Beef)

Bill de Blasio Makes Faux Pie With Fork-and-Knife Pizza Technique
By Colby Hamilton and Paul DeBenedetto on January 10, 2014 4:00pm
STATEN ISLAND — Dough!
Mayor Bill de Blasio stopped at a local Staten Island pizzeria for a quick bite on Friday — and caused a stir when he whipped out a knife and fork to dig into the pie.
The Cambridge, Mass.-raised mayor was visiting Staten Island as part of a campaign promise to reach out to all five boroughs when he went to scarf down a pie at one of former Mayor Rudy Giuliani's favorite spots, Goodfella's Pizzeria, at 1718 Hylan Blvd.
The culinary faux pas immediately caused a backlash, as people took to Twitter to vent their frustration with the new mayor.
"GROSS. What an abomination," tweeted @placovara.
"De Blasio eats pizza with a fork? You disappoint me son," said Twitter user @TatteredFedora.
Others seated at the table with the new mayor used forks, and de Blasio eventually started using his hands. Shortly after the meal, he defended his technique.
"In my ancestral homeland it is more typical to eat with a fork and a knife," de Blasio said. "And so I have been in Italy a lot, and I picked up the habit for certain types of pizza.
"So when you have a pizza like this, it had a lot on it, I often start with a knife and fork. But then I cross over to the American approach, and pick it up when I go farther into the pizza. It's a very complicated approach but I like it."
De Blasio isn't the first to be criticized for the way he eats pizza. In 2011, Donald Trump and Sarah Palin were taken to task for the same appraoch.
The man who made the pizza also defended the mayor's approach.
"We don't care [how people eat Goodfella's pizza]," said Andrew Scuvera. "A fork and knife is the best way; we make gourmet pizza."

It seems unlikely that the elector cardinals will choose as pope someone who will continue with the exact same polices as John Paul II. Although he has been widely praised and he has made every effort to appoint conservatives to the College of Cardinals, we cant assume that those same cardinals will be uncritical. John Paul IIs management style, for example, has disturbed quite a few people.
Change may not be possible under the new rules, however. In the past the requirement of a two-thirds majority for a successful vote meant that neither liberals nor conservatives (but primarily conservatives) could push through a candidate without compromising. Now it is possible to elect a pope with an majority of fifty percent plus one, and that makes an ideological candidate rather than a moderate much more likely.
Perhaps the most basic criterion for evaluating the way the next pope will influence the course of Roman Catholicism is whether his primary attitude towards the church and its members qualifies as preconciliar or postconciliar. A preconciliar pope is one who rejects many of the basic reforms of the Second Vatican Council and defines the freedom of the Roman Catholic Church as the right of the churchs leadership to have a free hand not only with internal church matters, but even with the external politics of the surrounding society.
A postconciliar pope is one who accepts at least many of the basic reforms of the Second Vatican Council and defines freedom as the freedom of Catholics themselves to help define what Catholicism means, how Catholicism operates, and the very structure and nature of the church itself. This means giving lay Catholics a greater role in determining how their parishes are run, who the priests and bishops are, and so on.
Pope John Paul II has, in many important ways, been a preconciliar pope. To cite just one example, he has imposed bishops on European dioceses in a manner that has trampled upon long-standing agreements and traditions. Why? Because he wished to impose order upon local congregations which, in his opinion, had strayed too far from his vision of Catholicism. Their vision of Catholicism was deemed unworthy of discussion and local clergy were judged unfit to fill the vacancies. Insults and protests abounded, widening the rift between individual Catholics and the Vatican.
Will the College of Cardinals want to elect a man who will continue these policies or who will try something new? There will surely be a bit of both, so the critical question is whether either group will have enough support and influence to push through their vision of the papacy without having to compromise with others. If so, that will not only result in a more ideological pope but also in hard feelings among the cardinals. That, in turn, may make matters even strained in the Vatican.

Bullied, harassed, and lied to, District 1 of the Amalgamated Association of Easter Bunnies, AFB-CIO (American Federation of Bunnies–Cottontails International Organization) went on strike, forcing a halt to this year's Easter egg hunts in Wisconsin.
At Bunny Headquarters, Solomon P. Bunny, union executive secretary, and a militant corps of Easter bunnies were preparing picket signs. I walked in, notepad in hand.
"Excuse me, Mr. Bunny, why aren't your members delivering eggs this week?"
Bunny looked up from the papers on his desk, chomped harder on his cigar, looked at me, scowled, and answered harshly, "Don't you know!?"
"No, sir," I replied apologetically. "I always thought you were happy and content delivering Easter eggs."
"We love it," growled Bunny, "but the Wisconsin Legislature doesn't love us."
"I will admit the newly-elected governor and the newly-elected conservatives in the Legislature were a bit authoritarian in what they did to the rights of the workers."
"Authoritarian, heck!" said Bunny, "they're the models of a fascist government in how they took away our rights."
"But don't the people have a right to balance their budget without excessive union demands?" I asked.
"Listen, Ink Breath, Wisconsin had a $120 million surplus just three months ago. The deficit isn't because the public employees' pensions and wages but more than $140 million in tax breaks the Republicans gave businesses, and another $200 million it pays every year to Wall Street investors. Add in all the travel perks and legislator benefits and you have a pile of money to stack your lies upon."
"But I read that public sector employees make more than those in the private sector."
"You read it where? In newspapers?" When I didn't answer him quickly, he continued. "Yeah, thought so. The Center for Economic Policy Research—that's an independent think tank—independent, you get it?—Independent, as in not funded by FOX News or Progressive Democrats of America—said that public sector workers, when compared against the same criteria as private sector workers, actually earn 4 percent less."
"Even with these facts, I doubt you'd have much support," I said, noting that while most taxpayers want programs they don't want to pay taxes and think union workers are greedy opportunists who deserve to be thrown on their tails, even if made of cotton.
Bunny went into one of his files, pulled out a sheaf of papers, and slammed it on the desk. "Read it!" he commanded. Not wanting to further upset a furious bunny, I skimmed the report that revealed about two-thirds of Americans support the rights of collective bargaining, even if they have serious problems with unions and how unions operate."
"And the legislators heard their concerns?"
"You crazy? Most snuck in and out of their offices, like the weasels they are. America is being mocked by other countries for what it's doing to the workers."
"But we have the highest standards of living," I countered.
"Listen, Lead-type-for-brains, collective bargaining is one of humanity's most fundamental rights. Says so in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, approved by 48 countries in 1948."
"But the Wisconsin governor says he never planned to kill all collective bargaining, just the public sector ones. And only because it would help the people."
"You've got to be the dumbest piece of cow excrement walking around," said Bunny. First you believe the newspapers, and then you believe some politician!"
Humbled, I apologized. "I can see your point," I said, feeling a little sorry for the bunnies, but I quickly recovered, reasserting my spine as a hard-hitting investigative reporter. "I assume you want everything. More wages, vacation days, sick days, larger pensions, no-pay medical benefits, shorter work weeks."
"You been sniffing newsprint? Haven't you learned anything?! Sure, we want better work conditions. But, most of all, we want the right of collective bargaining negotiation. We ask for stuff. They don't want to give us stuff. We negotiate. Just like unions have done for two centuries."
"There's still the matter of the Easter eggs. Are you so self-centered that you would deny the people of Wisconsin the right to hunt and capture hard-boiled cholesterol?"
"We don't want to harm the decent people of Wisconsin, whether or not they're in a union."
"So you will deliver Easter eggs this week!" I said, thrilled that the bunny union was relenting.
"This is off-the-record, but everyone will get their eggs. It's just that some people in Wisconsin may be getting 20-year-old eggs. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to preparing for a demonstration."
As I left, Solomon P. Bunny was multi-tasking on three different phones and two computer screens. But, he warned if the rotten eggs of the Legislature and their buddies in corporate industry don't stop pretending how religious and patriotic they are, while consistently violating the principles that Jesus stood for, "this will be the last Easter they will ever celebrate."

Happy Easter to all bloggers, denizens, lurkers, top posters, bottom posters, trolls, and writers of this generally fun to be around hangout we call myDD.
Have a Great Day!

This morning my mind turns Easter, and what it means to me. In this strange political climate, it turns out that resurrection is the goal and speciality of my chosen candidate.
Hillary Clinton has become somewhat of an icon for those that, wounded by the slings and arrows of life, need inspiration to keep battling. The personal and political beat-downs that Hillary Clinton has endured over decades would have destroyed all but the most dedicated public figures, and even her enemies seem to grudgingly acknowledge that fact.
Clinton has taken in the poisonous venom of her enemies and has become stronger. Whenever she is on the ropes, when it seems there is no way out, Hillary rises from the ashes, stronger and more resolute.
I personally receive a lot of inspiration from this woman of steel. Life can be tough. Sometimes, when things begin spirally down in negative fashion, the tendency is to be taken down in the wash. But Hillary seldom appears to be shaken, and she always fights back. Like a lump of coal, forged in the fire and constantly under pressure, Hillary Clinton has emerged as a diamond.
Sometimes I think about what it would be like to be in her shoes. Her battles have been bloody, and yet I have come to believe she lives to fight another day because she is fighting the good fight. She feels a sense of responsibility to speak for those individuals pushed aside in this "democracy" we live in where only corporations have a voice. She has worked hard to understand the system as it currently exists, and with that knowledge appears to have devised a path to improve the lives of citizens in this dear country.
How foolish it would be for the American people to dismiss this woman. An ability to overcome adversity is probably the single most important quality the next president will need to possess. It turns out that resurrection is Hillary Clinton's stock in trade.

I love to expose my wife too. and hear the comments
I love to share my wife's pics...after I've promised to delete them. Mostly I do it on chat lines and I would bet hundreds of guys have sen her naked now. The funny thing is that she is a super straight Mormon lady.
My husband did this to ME and I have had to tell people the pictures they saw were photoshopped! He turned me from a good Christian woman into a sluuty whore and now I cannot even feel comfortable going to church!!
For some reason I do this as well. I have a burning desire to expose her to the world. I get off when people post that she is hot and love to jerk off to her. I also have posted many pictures of ex-girlfriends on the internet too. It is unlikely that someone close to her or them will find them. As not many of her friends and family look for porn. I do it very anonymously, and with fake profiles on certain sites. I always do a google search to see if they show up when typing in key words. If I do ever get caught, I will just say that I must have been hacked and the pics were stolen. Why do I do this? I believe I am just a natural born pervert. Always have and always will be. Do I feel love? Yes I believe I do in my own way. But this is what gets me off. And as long as I play it smart and don't get found out, I will continue doing it until I have had enough. Sorry if this offends anyone, but I am honest about these feelings.
You described myself to a tee. lol.
dont share pics but would like to chat about the wife. any chat rooms where men can compare wives? how did it get to tghis? easy, my wife hasn't shown any interest in me in quite a while. i got tried of it -- complicated relationship - extended family etc -- i love my wife but not in a romantic way anymore and will spend the rest of my days taking care of her etc. talking / sharing about her in a fantasy / would like to turns me on. hmm, how about this? shes got 44dds and is really a fat little oinker anhyowne want to train her?
I am the same position why not txt me 07808070802 for chat
I love humiliating my wife...posting pics of her naked, exposing her in public, letting guys use her for fun and much else. I do not care what anyone thinks.
I am one of the wives that found out my soon to be ex-husband was posting nude photos of me while he was soliciting men, women, and couples, as well as, propositiong them. So to all that think this is humerous...look up "video voyeurism" in the state of Louisiana. I have already contacted detectives and will be making my report Monday, with ALL of my evidence. This is considered a criminal act. Penalty is at least $10,000.00 and up to one year of HARD LABOR. And he will have to publically list himself as a sex offender. He too had the sarcastic attitude like I am detecting in some of these post. But when he finds out there is a warrent out for his arrest, I truly believe his attitude will change. This is a man that has mentally and physically abused me, and has a sick addiction to porn. And on top of it all, I now know he is bi, gay, or whatever. I consider him to be a sick sex addict. And yes....this is a man I loved dearly at one time. So to all of you men, why don't you have enough respect to ask your wife if she would consent to posting her photos? Are maybe you know she would disapprove....that would be my guess!!
I have been doing much the same for years, I love that strangers see very explicit photos and videos of her. Most she does not even know I have taken. I usually make sure that she is not wearing a bra and has flimsy or very low cut tops on when we are out. I sometimes expose her... I have sold lots of her panties over the years, I usually include at least one very explicit photo and one face photo. Keep up the good work!!!!
i wish i was your wife
I love sharing explicit photos and videos of my wife to people she knows. It is so hot knowing that people she meet and talks to have seen photos of her naked, with her legs wide open... as well as friends i have given photos to some of her family. I have told people who her the full details of her most intimate activities. It is so damn hot!!! i also leave explicit photos of her in bars, rest rooms and other places..a few times i have sex with other women whilst they wore her best lingerie :)
Photographs in restrooms. That's a brilliant idea and so hot!
Original Poster: We have a lot in common, let's chat...Yahoo Messenger: cuckold_revenge
please send me her pics.
Hey, this is the original poster. If you want to know more let me know where I can get in touch with you, a website or e-mail addy I can talk it over with you about.

Sounds cool. I've done the hamper, toothbrush and mouthwash thing, myself. Another good one is hair conditioner. Nothing like knowing a woman has rinsed her hair in your cum. Where do you post her pix? Wife Lovers? (wifelovers dot com) or Show Me Your Wife (smyw dot org)
^ funny. :D Can we kick him out of the Pervert Union?
Men like you give perverts a bad name.
I hope she divorces you and takes you for everything you have. You're a horrible man and you don't love your wife. Fuck you, dick head go die or something.
What would you do if the wife found out?
This is the original poster. In answer to your question "What would you do if the wife found out?" Then I would threaten to have one of my online buds show off some of the most disgusting sex acts she has ever done and we filmed to all of her friends, coworkers, and family. She would get the point because she knows what she has done, they would all be disgusted at my slut!

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) - The Polar Bear Plunge is all but an icy memory, but the fun of this year's WinterFest will be a big boost for area non-profits.
Thursday morning, Rochester mayor Ardell Brede announced the 2013 WinterFest totals.
More than $400,000 dollars was raised for 21 non-profit groups.
Social Ice brought in about 17,000 people this year, and the Polar Plunge exceeded last years numbers with more than 1,000 jumpers and an expected $225,000 dollars.
In total, organizers estimate 25,000 people participated in 27 different events.
Organizers say because WinterFest is put on by non-profit groups, while the money raised is important, also notable is the turnout. Officials say the attendance figures mean that even during this economic downturn people, are still contributing within our local economy.

Diggin' the train stuff the most though!
Thanks, SkMop!
Our Town
Worked more on this one
Something I'm working on:
Ballpoint pen figure montage:
Wow, amazing sketches!
And my favourite painting is the one with a girl and rabbits and a horse and people above. I don't know what movie (if any) it is for, but it's very original and creative
Thanks Justyna!
It's interesting that you bring up that piece because I was thinking of doing another like it, but was kinda on the fence about it. I think I will now.
It wasn't for a particular movie... originally it was a concept for an editorial illustration for school that I took way beyond its original meaning after the fact (and threw in a lot of stuff that didn't make sense)
Well, I sure do hope you will paint it
I subscribed and will definitely be stopping by.
New piece I'm working on
I don't think I posted the end result of this one:
very nice sketchbook pages mate! Getting a bit of a jon foster vibe on that toaster bot down there at the bottom. Keep it up man, lets see some more!
Man I love how you go about incorporating different images in certain parts of your paintings! I don't really have any crits at this point, maybe as you post some more WIPS lol, but all of your stuff is pretty solid.
On a side note, where are you around Toronto? I'm currently in Guelph, but will be up north close to Barrie for the most part of Dec. Message me if your close or interested in starting/know of a good sketch group
my book o' doodles
Interested in some Team CHOW? i'm all for it :3
Metal fingers, thanks very much.
Fragmented chimp, thanks!
Brad, thanks I'll see about posting more WIPs for the next piece.
I'm in the downtown core in Toronto... as far as drawing groups to suggest... hmmm. There's the keyhole sessions... I usually attend that weekly. They are a specialty life-drawing session. I've also gone to Dr sketchy, but I'm not quite sure if either has any sessions before the new year. I know Keyhole is done until Jan. or something like that.
Is it really difficult to get from barrie to the downtown core? Both of the drawing groups I mentioned are here in the Queen/spadina Queen/dovercourt area.. I think there's a concept art sketchgroup that sometimes meets up, but I've never been (yet).
Speaking of which... here's an ink drawing I did of one of the models at the keyhole sessions:
Lost Under the Mountain
Epic work. Epic. I will be subscribing to this. Love your style. Looking forward to more...
yes your style and lines are really accomplished and good to look at. but I think its your sense of composition that really caught my eye, I love all of these and its obvious you practice a lot, and its working - keep it up!
Really nice sketchbook! Lots of refreshing energy but good fundamentals as well. Keep it up, you definitly have the chops for illustration.

Here be SKETCHIES...
Wow, thanks very much CCThrom, I hope so
Ceinie, thankyou. I've been trying to get my compositions right when their still in their thumbnails before I proceed to final. it's nice to know that it's starting to pay off
Halogen, thanks very much
I edited a bunch of posts and added drawings I forgot to previously scan or put online
I was on the muddy colors blog and got the idea of going to the smoking gun website and doing some random sketches of the colorful characters there. I think one or two were drawn from elsewhere-- the one is the 'hide ya kids, hide ya wife guy'
Wow, really good stuff! Juno and the one with the town and all the people are my faves so far, but I love them all! Nice to see ballpoint pen sketches too, I use it all the time.. keep them coming!
Thanks very much, Devilry
Oh wow, great sketchbook so far! I'm loving your imaginative pieces and the
quality in your line drawings. And the fact that you drew Antoine haha
Keep up the hard work, it seems you're well on your way!

Pretty rad Your stuff feels very Hollywood. I don't know why exactly that is, but it's a good thing!
How about some skin studies? Sometimes the "essence" of the skin is lost in your images.
Merry Christmas!

This starts on the same flat jug as The Whale but goes left to crimpy sid pulls. Flip the right hand, bump the left up, and toe scum the right foot to keep balanced. Cross your right hand to a slopey, crimpy, semi-gaston. Reach the left high to a tiny crimp, step up, reach the right to a horrible pinch, and see if your tendons hold out long enough to get you to the jug.
A single pad is sufficient. Watch out for the boulder to climbers left. It's sharp and directly in the fall line.
