For my first project, I want to go with something simple and something much generic, so I can get a practice on the other part of production.
And here's a simpler story that I came up with. It's much simpler than the other projects. I haven't thought up of ending for it, but I feel like the focus of this story will be more on characters, their growth through the story, and how their actions affect other people.
There will be three protagonists. Two boys and one girl, in high school. (By generic, I mean to use settings and similar character backgrounds.)
The story happens in their local setting (school, neighborhood, etc.) and in a fantasy-esque world. The latter world can be accessed after falling asleep, but before entering in a dream mode. (To be more exact, it's a closed environment where people's mind enter in a out-of-body experience.)
There exists beings that people can talk to, interact with, but who are not people. They take on various forms. What they know varies. What they are able to do varies, too. When people ask them questions, they may or may not enter. Some don't know the answer, and some know false information, and some are not allowed to answer the question. They also collect a lot of data (since people talk a lot of things to them when they visit the world). They also seem to have another way of accessing the real world. People are also able to have one request granted. Some may not be able to grant a request, some may not be allowed to grant a request. Whether people get through or not may also depend on their condition.
Things can be taken into this world, but nothing leaves with them.
Most of the information from this world is about the real world. And some of these 'beings' are able to make some changes in the real world.
And to enter this world, and to exit this world, the 'dreamers' (?) need to be wearing a special accessory that will eventually connect their consciousness back to their physical body.
The protagonists (and the other extras) don't know much about this world.
In the first half of the story, male protagonist 1 will focus on learning about the world. Knowing how to ask questions, and having good memory, he will learn a lot about this world. He generally believes that power is knowledge, but he's starting to learn that some information does more harm, and that the public don't need to know of them. In school, he is well-liked, and is well-informed. He is also well-natured, and many people believe that he will make the right decision when needed, and depend on him.
Male protagonist 2 will encounter a 'being' that reminds him of his deceased mother and sister, and become extremely attached to that being, and this world. He starts to look for ways to either stay in that other world forever, or to bring this being into his world. He doesn't really care about other people. Although many do think he's pretty cool (by stereotype/looks/whatever), he has few friends, who he doesn't really think of as friends.
The female protagonist requests that some of the 'beings' become friends with her. After her father was convicted for murder (or some kind of crime), her friends leave her and the whole school body distance themselves from her. Her family moves to a new location (which happens to be the area that the other two characters live in). She has made some friends, but she is very careful about keeping her family's past secret. However, she feels that the 'beings' are able to remain her friends even with knowing what happened to her father/what he did. Although she is attached to her 'friends' in the other world, she still wants to have true friends in the real world.
They sometimes visit the world together and travel together after learning the other party knows about this world. But since the other world is too big, they (and other people) rarely bump into each other if they don't travel together. They also start to meet other people who also travel to this world. But it's sometimes hard to tell who's a human, and who's of that world.
For plot:
Male protagonist 1 learns of the female protagonist's secret, but promises her to keep it secret. They also become more aware of the other world as a big pool of information and that it's more important than they thought and that the requests and information there are affecting the real world. They discover that some of the 'beings' are actually people. And one of the characters get stuck/lost in the other world because his/her accessory gets stolen while they are 'asleep'. The other two have to find who stole the accessory and the motive behind it. They also learn more about their past/people from their past, as they uncover more information in the second world. When things start happening, the characters spend a lot of time running around in the other world to get information, to ask requests to the right beings.
The protagonists learn a lot about this world, but still don't know more about the world, because we usually never learn the whole of things in real life, too.
So it's pretty generic… I think generic stories should be easier to do. Less expectation, and I don't have to think as hard as to make the story work. Actually, I wanted to insert some of my stagnant, abiotic characters into some story. They will have the role of being 'beings'. :)
Ideals for some of these 'beings':
Angel - able to listen to a variety of requests. Doesn't tell much. Main power is to allow one 'being' to affect the real world more.
Ghost - eliminates whatever comes on the way. May stop on the its track to listen to a request if it has eliminated something already on that day. Looks similar to Angel. Able to affect only what's in the other world. Doesn't talk. Other beings and humans try to avoid this.
ADA - disappears and appears randomly, and is really hard to find. Bears resemblance to someone….? Not much is known about this.
PLUS/MINUS siblings - one can increase certain property/objects and the other one can decrease some stuff. These are the ones that the female protagonist becomes friends with. They have a lot of basic knowledge of the world.
Girl? - the one that the male protagonist 2 becomes attached to. Hasn't done much and haven't talked much. Appears more human like than others.
Gatekeeper (actually human) - the one who's always at the local checking point between the real world and the other world. There are not actually a 'gatekeeper' in other checking points (in other places) but the 'dreamers' in this town/city/region are used to seeing him everyday (since he has been always there) and assume that other checking points are like this too. He's actually someone from the real world disguising as a being. Most of the time he tells useful information to first-timers (like who to avoid, what they can do) but later seems to to be not so trusty and kind…
there was a moment in my life that I enjoyed the least, then I would have to pick the current time.
I think I might be replying back really late, too, but you're welcome! :) Keep sharing awesome photos and thanks for sharing! :)
…. fandoms are bigger, and so there's more groups and more people doing things for anime series that they like,
and I really like One Piece
and there happens to be big groups of people liking One Piece and doing doujinshi for One Piece
and the joining process seems pretty simple -
just apply with skill level and then they get back to you
not that I have the skill to make a comic
but it would be nice
and it's so within reach, too
except that I didn't do verification thing in Korea when I turned 18, so my Korean SSN is on hold right now or something
so I can't sign up for some of the systems/forums that these happen
On another note, I really would like to set up a zeroboard (blog/diary tool made from a Korean company) because the designs look really sleek
but I haven't gotten around to finding a webspace, or setting up… oh man, let's focus on school work
The group I want to join for now: http://opbu.xo.st/

Neil Shubin, Marc Cashman (Narrator), "The Universe Within: Discovering the Common History of Rocks, Planets, and People"
ISBN: 0449012948, ASIN: B00AMNOHLS | 2012 | MP3@96 kbps | ~06:35:00 | 274 MB
In The Universe Within, Neil Shubin, one of the world's leading experts, reveals to us the extraordinary cosmic and evolutionary adventure of our own bodies.
During the past 13.7 billion years (or so) since the Big Bang, our universe has evolved, stars have formed and died and our planet congealed from the matter in space. For aeons, the earth has circled the sun while mountains, seas and entire continents have come and gone. Against this epic backdrop, humanity's place in the cosmos can look tiny and insignificant. But as Neil Shubin shows in this revelatory new book, the one place where universe, solar system and planet merge is inside your body. Shubin shows how the origin of the Moon is tied to our internal body clocks; how the vast amounts of water on Earth and inside all living creatures crossed the deepest stretches of space to us; how strange fluctuations in the orbits within our solar system have led to our irregular ice-ages; and how tiny imbalances in the chaos immediately after the Big Bang can explain why matter exists at all.

Arizona Legislators Trying To Declare Pregnancy Two Weeks Prior To Conception
This is not a headline from The Onion.
Legislators have had so much success smuggling in ulterior motives with 20-week bans that they're now looking for ways to expand the amount of hard right anti-choice nonsense they can attach to those bills. The most recent—-and extreme—-example is Arizona. There, lawmakers are writing a 20-week abortion ban that starts counting off at the first day of a woman's period. Yes, they're arguing that you're "pregnant" while you're actually getting your period. In fact, as Kate Sheppard at Mother Jones explains, they're really trying to steal as many weeks as possible away from women seeking abortion:
Most women ovulate about 14 or 15 days after their period starts, and women can usually get pregnant from sexual intercourse that occured anywhere between five days before ovulation and a day after it. Arizona's law would start the clock at a woman's last period—which means, in practice, that the law prohibits abortion later than 18 weeks after a woman actually becomes pregnant.
That's bad in and of itself, but taking a step back and looking at the big picture makes this law look even more sinister. Medically speaking, pregnancy starts when a fertilized egg implants in the uterine lining. Anti-choicers have attempted to define it earlier with their failed attempts to pass "personhood" law that would define not just pregnancy, but "personhood" as beginning at conception. Now in Arizona, they're trying to argue that you're pregnant a couple of weeks before you even had the sex that resulted in your pregnancy.
Think about the implications down the road. If a woman is "pregnant" two weeks before she becomes pregnant, than any fertile woman—-including those currently menstruating!—-should really be considered pregnant. After all, we don't know the future. We don't know that any non-pregnant woman couldn't be pregnant two weeks from now, making her retroactively pregnant now. Considering that it's anti-choice nuts we're talking about, it's safe to assume that they'd simply prefer a situation where all women of reproductive age are considered to be pregnant, on the grounds that they could be two weeks from now. Better safe than sorry, especially if that mentality means you get to exert maximum control over the bodies of women of reproductive age.

Doesn't it make you want to stand up and cheer when your state legislators are bold enough to toss out that silly, antiquated, "basic human biology" rule book?
(Source: existentialcrisisfactory, via lipstick-feminists)
over a 20-year period, asking some 2,000 men in college questions like this: "Have you ever had sexual intercourse with someone, even though they did not want to, because they were too intoxicated [on alcohol or drugs] to resist your sexual advances?", or "Have you ever had sexual intercourse with an adult when they didn't want to because you used physical force [twisting their arm, holding them down, etc.] if they didn't cooperate?"
About 1 in 16 men answered "yes" to these or similar questions.
1 in sixteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen are you kidding me
if we got 1 in 16 motherfuckers admitting to raping women on college campuses and are "very forthcoming. In fact, they are eager to talk about their experience", you better fucking believe tossing out your short skirt and staying in at night isn't going to keep you safe.
(via grrl-meat)
Even worse:
In a survey of 11-14 year-old boys…
- 51% believed that "forced sex" is acceptable if a boy spends a lot of money on a girl
- 31% believed that it would be okay to rape someone with past sexual experience
- 65% believed that sexual assault is okay if dating for more than 6 months
- 87% believed that sexual assault is okay if the perpetrator and victim are married
…aaand in a survey of college males…
- 1 in 12 admitted to committing rape (under the legal definition)
- 35% admitted that they would commit rape under circumstances if they could get away with it
…and in another…
- 43% of college-aged men admitted to using "coercive behavior" such as ignoring a woman's nonconsent and using physical aggression
(via wretchedoftheearth)
really? how does this not make me even more scared? fuck
(via strugglingtobeheard)
reblogging for commentary
(via ethiopienne)
The problem is that the men probably didn't realize it was rape since it's basically a cultural norm.
(via realgirlpress)
Rape culture is real and horrible
(via teandrevolution)
The more I learn about rape culture, the more it becomes clear that it never has been and never will be the women who are "asking for it" but the fact that certain misguided men are taught not to care what we do or do not ask of them.

It's begun. The first seal of the 2013 Canadian commercial seal hunt was killed earlier today, according to the Humane Society. We've written a lot on the seal hunt in the past, so I don't really have anything new to say. Sorry.

Ciaté has come up with a new formula that turns each of your nails into a mini chalkboard primed for decorating. The set comes with chalkboard nail polish and chalk pens. Apply two coats of the polish, draw designs with the pens, and seal it with a top coat.
Posts tagged nail polish
I got these three Blackheart nail polishes from Hot Topic and they're surprisingly really nice. They dry so fast and seem to last longer (no chips) than OPI.
Sephora has released a new color with OPI and get this, it beats out Chanel nail lacquers in price! The polish, called 18K, is a clear top coat with real gold flakes. As fancy as that is, if I'm going to spend $30 on a bottle of nail polish (which I don't see myself doing anytime soon) it's gonna be Chanel.
(Also, insert obligatory "Goldfinger" joke here)
donzodonzodonzo replied to your photo: I bought this scented Betsey Johnson nail polish…
What does it smell like? I saw that Dior has scented nail polish and was doubtful about it.
Well when I got it the first thing I did was open the bottle and smell it. I was disappointed to find out it smelled like regular nail polish. You can't smell the perfume until it dries. This one smells like Betsey Johnson's "Tutu" perfume. I have a feeling that the Dior one smells better haha.

A group of Mexican investors called Tenedora K purchased a 95 percent stake in Nuevo Grupo Aeronautico SA, the holding company for the airline Compania Mexicana de Aviacion.
Tenedora K will be the majority owner, while the country's pilots' union holds 5 percent, according to an Aug. 20 statement. The Mexican companies Grupo Industrial Omega SA and Grupo Arizan are among the investors in Tenedora K, according to the statement, and the sellers included Grupo Posadas SAB, Mexico's largest hotel operator.
Mexicana, Mexico's biggest airline by passengers, filed for protection from creditors in Mexico and under Chapter 15 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on Aug. 3 after executives said they had failed to reach cost-saving agreements with labor unions. The Chapter 15 petition lists more than $500 million in assets and $1 billion in debt. Chapter 15 protection bars U.S. creditors from seizing planes or cancelling contracts.
The purchase by Tenedora K which was formed to purchase Mexicana, was "the first step in order to establish the conditions that will eventually allow for a process of restructuring that will require coming to financial, operative and labor agreements," the investor group said in the statement.
Mexicana Chief Executive Officer Manuel Borja Chico left his post on Aug. 20, and Tenedora K named a new company director, said Fernando Perfecto, secretary general of the pilots' union. Perfecto declined to identify the new director or disclose the terms of the sale, saying this information would be announced Aug. 25. The statement from Tenedora K didn't reveal the amount of the sale.
Sales Suspended
Andres Rozental, president of the board of Grupo Industrial Omega, confirmed in an Aug. 21 e-mail that his company is one of the investors, and that Tenedora K owns 95 percent of Nuevo Grupo Aeronautico. Grupo Arizan didn't return a call seeking comment.
Mexicana spokesman Adolfo Crespo declined to comment.
Private equity group Advent International Corp. helped arrange the deal, and isn't investing in Mexicana, Perfecto said. Advent's office in Mexico City didn't answer calls made by Bloomberg outside usual business hours.
Grupo Posadas, in an Aug. 20 statement, said it had sold its 30 percent stake in Nuevo Grupo Aeronautico.
Mexicana was ordered on Aug. 18 by a bankruptcy judge to resolve a dispute with U.S. airports and pay fuel, food and other charges within a week to keep U.S. creditors at bay. International airports in Denver, Dallas, Miami and Sacramento, California, sought court permission to file claims against Mexicana if they don't get "timely" payment of passenger facility charges.
The airline suspended ticket sales after its bankruptcy filing, Mexicana's primary lender, Grupo Financiero Banorte SAB's Banco Mercantil Del Norte unit, has said.

In honor of Michael Jackson's life and recent passing, I thought it would be appropriate to pay his music its due respect, Kansas City Royals style. Michael Jackson was a legend, an icon, a musical genius, and a creative inspiration. I grew up listening to the music of MJ, and while I may not admire the man he became, I sure do love his music.
Let's take a walk down memory lane and reminisce about some of the Kansas City Royals 1st round and supplemental round draft picks of the recent past. To give it a little extra flavor they are paired with the titles of Michael Jackson's 13 number one Billboard R&B hits.
Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough (1979)
No year in the illustrious history of Royals drafts fits this MJ hit like 1999 when the Royals selected 4 of 43 players. You would think that the Royals would have found one impact player among those four selections. Instead the Royals selected two complete busts and two fringe ML players. With the 7th overall pick they selected RHP-Kyle Snyder out of the University of North Carolina. The oft-injured Snyder rewarded the Royals with an 8-17 ML record, 5.57 ERA, and 1.55 WHIP. Sadly KC should have known better, since Snyder was injured while still in college. With the 25th overall pick they went back to the college pitching ranks plucking RHP-Mike MacDougal out of Wake Forest University. He has compiled a 13-20 record, 4.04 ERA, 1.509 WHIP, and 52 saves. At age 32 he is still in the major leagues pitching out of the Washington Nationals bullpen. The Royals weren't done there, making two picks in the supplemental round. They selected Pepperdine University RHP-Jay Gehrke 32nd overall and got absolutely nothing from him. In fact he pitched only 3 seasons in the minor leagues reaching high-A before he was out of baseball. With their final early selection they broke rank and took HS LHP-Jimmy Gobble out of John S Battle HS in Bristol, Virginia. Gobble did his part to reward the Royals, but was never allowed to settle into a defined role. He was tried as a starter, spot starter, reliever, and left-handed specialist. His best year in his ML career came in 2007 when he had a 3.02 ERA and 1.472 WHIP in 53.2 innings pitched. Gobble is currently pitching for the Chicago White Sox and has a 22-23 record, 5.30 ERA, and 1.493 WHIP in 7 ML seasons.
Rock with You (1980)
I'll take 2005 2nd overall pick 3B-Alex Gordon as my choice to "rock with." Gordon has been severely underappreciated in his brief Royals career. Much of that has to do with the insane expectations that were placed upon him. I love Alex Gordon and love the future that he still has ahead of him. Click here for a post I did in the offseason on Gordon.
The Girl Is Mine (1983)
1996 14th overall selection OF-Dermal "Dee" Brown gets the nod here, simply because Dee is also a girl's name. Mr. Brown hit .233/.280/.333 in 814 ML at bats. After 14 minor league seasons, Dermal is still playing. This season he is in the Dodgers organization playing for Albuquerque and is hitting .311/.375/.596.
Billie Jean (1983)
Billie Jean, meet Billy Ray. The Royals selected Billy Ray Butler 14th overall in the 2004 draft out of Wolfson Senior HS in Florida. Butler has not disappointed with the bat, but his development at 1B was delayed by the Royals misguided attempts to play him at 3B and LF. Billy has managed to hit .282/.335/.426 in 285 games with the Royals. Just 23 years old, the future is very bright for Butler at the plate. He hasn't been too shabby at 1B either.
Beat It (1983)
Beat it was the sentiment of many Royals fans when the 35th selection in the 1992 draft was traded to Oakland after the 2000 season. At age 26 Damon was in his 6th major league season and was clearly one of the best leadoff hitters in the game. Johnny Damon was a fan favorite in Kansas City before it became clear they couldn't re-sign him and fans quickly turned on him. Now in his 15th major league season Damon has hit .289/.355/.438 with 197 HR, 396 SB, and 1431 R in 2056 games played. Despite being hated, Royals fans need to recognize how great he was as a Royal and as a ML ballplayer. Born in Fort Riley, KS he is also a local kid who "made it" which should be a source of community pride, but for most Royals fans it never will be. Incidentally, the Damon trade brought SS-Angel Berroa who was also told to "beat it" by Royals fans several years later.
I Just Can't Stop Loving You (1987)
Donald Zackary Greinke it's true, I just can't stop loving you. Despite all the turmoil he has been through, there is no doubt that Greinke is the Royals best draft pick since the Royals selected Johnny Damon in the supplemental round of the 1992 draft. Zack was selected 6th overall in the 2002 draft out of Apopka HS in Apopka, Florida. In 767.2 major league innings pitched, Greinke has a 3.94 ERA, 1.292 WHIP, 3.22 K/BB and a respectable 43-48 record despite playing on many god awful teams in his 6 major league seasons. He is in the midst of a season for the Royals record books with a 1.90 ERA, 5 CG, 2 SHO, 1.018 WHIP, and 6.17 K/BB.
Bad (1987)
This one is too easy. In 2001 the Royals selected RHP-Colt Griffin 9th overall out of Marshall HS in Marshall, Texas. When drafted, Griffin could throw over 100 mph, but had no control. Unfortunately the Royals were unable to teach him that critical skill. You cannot throw it through the wall of the barn if you can't hit the barn to begin with. Griffin was given 5 seasons in the minors to figure it out, but he never could. In 373.2 minor league innings pitched, he struck out 271 but walked 278. A bad pick with bad results made Colt Griffin just plain bad.
The Way You Make Me Feel (1987)
This one goes out to all the Royals 1st or supplemental round draft picks that never made the major leagues in the last 15 years that aren't mentioned elsewhere in this post. LHP-Matthew Campbell (2004), OF-Chris Lubanski (2003), LHP-Mike Stodolka (2000), RHP-Matt Burch (1998) and LHP-Matt Smith (1994), depressed is how you guys make me feel. RHP-Aaron Crow (2009) and LHP-Mike Montgomery (2008) get a pass for a few years.
Man in the Mirror (1988)
David and Dan Glass, please take a look at the man you see in the mirror. Remember what Ewing Kauffman did for the team and the city and step it up. It is time to do whatever it takes to bring Kansas City a winner!
Another Part of Me (1988)
2003 30th overall selection, out of the University of Toledo, OF-Mitch Maier is another part of me. Like myself, Mitch was drafted as a catcher and later converted to play CF. The main difference, I was drafted in Babe Ruth Baseball as a teenager, Mitch was drafted by a major league franchise. We are both white, relatively fast, hit left-handed, and play solid defense. He's 6'2, 210 and I'm 6'1, 190. Close enough. In 204 ML at bats Mitch has hit .255/.318/.324.
Remember the Time (1991)
Do you remember the time, before the selection of Greinke that the Royals drafted an Impact pitcher? If you don't remember, no one can blame you because you have to go back to 1987. It was 22 years ago that the Royals selected RHP-Kevin Appier 9th overall in the first round out of Antelope Valley College in California. Appier compiled a 169-137 record with a 3.74 ERA, 1.294 WHIP, 2.14 K/BB, and 34 CG in 16 ML seasons.
In the Closet (1991)
Keep it in the closet indeed. Enter the 19th overall pick in the 1995 draft, Juan Lebron. Drafted out of HS in Arroyo, Puerto Rico, Lebron failed to keep his attitude in the closet and quickly wore out his welcome in the Royals organization. He was eventually traded to the Mets before bouncing around between the Mariners, Cardinals, and various independent leagues. Lebron never reached the majors and finished with a .259/.316/.428 line in 3541 minor league at bats. His numbers were not impressive and neither was his attitude.
You Are Not Alone (1995)
At least we hope Alex Gordon and Billy Butler won't be alone. 2007 2nd overall pick Mike Moustakas and 2008 3rd overall pick Eric Hosmer were both drafted out of high school. Both of them have at least another full minor league season ahead of them, but they have the type of bats that could soon give the Royals some major thump in between Butler and Gordon in the 2011 lineup.
RIP Michael, you will be missed!

Can i use a VPN on apple tv?
I am moving to Europe and I know most US services will not work (Netflix, Hulu), without a VPN. Can I set this up on the Apple TV or do I need a VPN Router? Or maybe I can set it up on my airport extreme?

1 Answer from the Community
Chris, you can't set up a VPN on AppleTV, you need to VPN the router. If you happen to be living ON a military base Hulu will know thw IP address range for overseas bases and will add your IP address so you can access the Hulu app. No luck if you live off base. This doesn't mean you have to ditch your Airport Extreme (does not support VPN) and AExpress repeaters. You can have a VPN wifi and a non-VPN (Apple) wifi configuration... see illustration at strongvpndotcom

Book Description:
You can go back, but you can never go home...When actor Wally Day is called back to his hometown by his mother's mysterious plea for help, he returns to a past he has tried to forget. "Would you come home, Walter? Please?" With these desperate words from the distant mother he hasn't seen in ten years, Wally Day's carefully-constructed world collapses in on itself. For years, the handsome actor has made denial his own particular art form - from his stalled career to the emotionless embrace of the hard-edged boys who regularly traipse through his bedroom. Now, faced with this sudden intrusion from his past, Wally must confront the reasons he left his hometown of Brown's Mill in a cloud of anger, shame and guilt. As Wally unravels the dark side of his All-American family, he has a chance to make peace with the boy he was in order to become the man he needs to be. He is once more the 14-year-old living at Miss Aletha's house on the wrong side of town, the music of Saturday Night Fever providing the charged, erotic soundtrack to his life. The world was on the exuberant edge of change in those days, and Wally relives the thrill of discovery, the promise of forbidden sex - and the mistake that cost him everything. It's a journey that will take Wally back to his past - to a time when he was the good son, the smartest boy in the class, the shining picture of the All-American boy. William J. Mann has written his most powerful work yet: a searing novel about the difference between going home and finding yourself there. By turns poignant and sexy, harrowing and hopeful, "All American Boy" is filled with insight, humour, hurt, truth and the ever-renewing hope of love.

It's always more difficult to start than to continue – I've wanted to blog for years but never had the dedication required to do so. A few times I even started blogs, posted occasionally and shut it down or abandoned it before I saw any results. So, when I saw myself posting for one month, then two, then three, and so on, I knew that I would finish my personal challenge of posting for 365 days.
It's important to have the right tools – I started my blog on another platform that I did not understand before switching over to WordPress. I had used WordPress in the past but I wanted to look cool and use the latest technology. Unfortunately, the learning curve was too steep and I went back to a platform that I could work on myself.
Understand social media and the potential of each platform – Before I began blogging, I was on Twitter without really being on Twitter. But I found it was the platform that worked best for me. There, I found key supporters who were lovely to engage with and who sent more loyal followers my way. It's a delight to see how illustrations are a hit (or miss) the moment I post them. When you have a blog, it's important to use social media to gain a following otherwise you'll just be blogging to yourself, and that can be discouraging.
If you don't know, read – I had a LOT of questions about blogging, and although I figure most of it out on my own, I read a book on the subject to get me started, constantly looked at other blogs for inspiration, and read a lot of articles. Blogging is no longer a mystery, there's a lot of information out there.
If you're commited, then you're committed – Sometimes I had to rush home to post after a night out or had to make sure that I had time to draw and post before an event. At times I even drew some not so attractive girls (in my standards) that my Mom called me out on, but I always made sure that I would post. The most challenging time was while I was doing presentations during my Masters. I think that's when I posted the most drawings from my archives. Either way, it was a commitment and I knew that whether 1 person or 100 people saw it, I said I would do it so I did it.
I love colored hair, pink, red, violet, and turquoise – I don't know how many markers I own but my favorite colors have remained the same as when I was a kid. When I try to use other colors, they look off, like I'm not being true to myself. This year made me define my personal palette once and for all and I am extremely grateful for that realization.
People can be really awesome – I received so much love from people that I didn't know during this project. A lot of times they would point out details about the illustrations that I hadn't noticed or had forgotten. Art is my salvation, as much a part of me as my brain or my hands; it was trying for me to show the world what was inside of my heart. But everyone who supported me allowed me to show myself, unfiltered, and I have grown so much as an artist from that opportunity.
When I was a kid my goal was to be able to draw what I imagined. Now my goal is to trust myself enough to take me further than what I imagined. Thank you all for being part of this artistic journey with me.
So, here are the first of the TOP 20 Illustrations, in no particular order, simply based on my preferences and the amount of likes/reblogs I received for them. Thank you to all of you who follow me, support my work, and show me love!
The Number 2 was the surprise favorite of the year for me. It received tons of likes and retweets and was a best-seller at the shopping events.
The Number 1 pick of the 365 Days of Illustrations is one of my proudest moments as an artist. Although it was done prior to the project, it became a starting point for many of the other drawings I did throughout the year. She is sensual, love her pose, her natural beauty, her clothes, and her relaxed attitude. Absolutely gorg.
I'm celebrating the end of 365 Days of Illustrations with a contest! Follow me on Twitter at @tatianapoblah and tweet to win an illustration (and more goodies!). Only 4 hours left! For rules check out http://t.co/Jnmp0SW3Zw
I just want to thank all of you for following me, for liking my illustrations, and for reblogging my work
bright-sunny-sky said: Hey there! I just stumbled across your blog and you are so talented! I'm sad I didn't discover you earlier, now that your year of drawing is almost up! I hope you'll continue to post more amazing things :)
Hey, thank you for your message! I will continue to post, most likely on a weekly basis though. Have a good one!

Barclays Online OFFLINE: UK bank site, mobile app go titsup for the evening
Barclays' online banking service in the UK appears to have fallen over on Monday evening, leaving fuming customers unable to access their accounts. Punters are complaining they cannot log into the website, nor use the bank's multiplatform mobile app. Right now, the site greets visitors with the message: "5 - Sorry - Barclays …
The Barclaycard online servicing site is offline, too...
Ha!...I was asked by a colleague at work today why I didn't bank online. I told her I was a Barclay's customer.
Titles are for Toffs.
Not working for me at all.
You can go to www.barclays.co.uk, but as soon as you click on the log in or go direct to Ibank, you get:
"Connection closed by remote server
You tried to access the address https://ibank.barclays.co.uk/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.

Why did Peter have to abandon his shopping if the online banking was down? Is this affecting card transactions too?
It'll be a faulty RAID array. Almost always is when online banking goes tits up.
What I find more amusing is wanting to change to Natwest after their fail earlier in the year, and multiple times last year.
"Have you tried switching it off and on again?"
... in a strong Indian accent.
Re: "Have you tried switching it off and on again?"
Why did it have to be an Indian accent?
Re: "Have you tried switching it off and on again?"
Try calling Barclays telephone banking... and actually understanding the reply.
Why would you have to leave your shopping?
This is online servicing only, right? Or is it some kind of funky NFC payment app on a phone? In which case you'd have thought they'd still be carrying a debit card?
I love the way that it's inconcievable now to be disconnected from this stuff. Not all that long ago, before ATMs, you had to plan ahead and visit a bank on Friday to get enough cash out to see you through the weekend! Technology is great but some people don't have any kind of backup plan when it goes wrong.
So, if the bank isn't available??
Then everything is free?
Wishful thinking. They could authorize everything.
Nostalgia ain't what it used to be
Ah a return to more restful times when banks opened at 9.30 and closed again, exhausted, at 3.30.

Mine used to be open 9:30 to 17:00, but "improved service" by closing at 15:15.
Yes, RBS, I'm looking at you.
Re: Nostalgia ain't what it used to be
Calling Banks "Cunts" is like calling cattle "bovine".
Damn close to tautology.

youtube is down as well. Did Al Gore forget to keep up the payments on his invention?
Not at all, he is perfectly up to date on his inventions.
He did, however, forget to pay rent on the tubes.

Q I've made a custom dash for my project, and I want to hinge a door in the center to cover the A/C controls and the other switches that will mount in the dash. Where can I get some small, hidden hinges that will work for this application? I've looked at piano hinges, which are available in small sizes, but the barrel of the hinge has to be exposed, and I want a cleaner look. Also, do you think its better to weld the top half of the center bump to the dash, or to make it a bolt-on piece?Frank Millsap - Via the Internet
A There are many ways to hinge a cover or door. You might check out the Soss brand hinge-it's completely hidden, small in section, and relatively easy to mount. They come in a wide range of sizes, and you could probably use the smallest for this application. You can contact them by telephone at 800-922-6957, or check out their website: www.soss.com
The website has an animation that shows how the clever design of the hinge works, and how the mechanism is completely hidden when the door is closed. I've used these hinges for several projects, and they can be the perfect solution in a number of situations.
Another option is to make hinges similar to a car door, but of course you'd have to scale them down appropriately. The primary problem with this style hinge is that the "dogleg" portion of the hinge requires a lot of room, but they work smoothly, and can carry a lot of weight.
If you weld the hump to the existing dash, you'll get massive distortion on the flat areas. For that reason alone, you could make a very good case for making it as a bolt-on item. Also, since the hinged door will have a gap at its edges, the line of separation between the hump and the dash would make a visual continuation of the door gap. I'd probably go with the bolted construction.

SuperMoon Shot with New 70-300 Lens
My Canon 70-300 lens got a battering over the past few years (I had it over 6 years) so I invested in a brand new 70-300. The latest version of this zoom lens has IS and 2 auto-focus modes. The zoom is incredible and I have taken some great shots of aircraft at 36,000ft, on […]
Woodland Evening Light
I always like unusual lighting conditions and on a recent woodland walk I noticed a tree which was being lit in spots thanks to the overhead canopy and surrounding trees filtering the light. This resulted in only a section of the tree being lit and thus created an effect which I very much liked. The […]
St. Mary's Cathedral Kilkenny
On a recent walk in Kilkenny as the evening was closing in, the rays of the sun and the silhouette of St. Mary's Cathedral in Kilkenny drew my attention. Using spot metering I was able to place the cathedral so that it was darker than the background and thus also showing the lighting and texture of […]
Robin on Tree Stump
I was testing my new Canon 70-300 lens and spotted this Robin Red Breast standing in a patch of sunlight on a tree stump. I took 2 shots, in the first you couldn't see his head but this was the second. I was very happy with the shot as the feather lines and detail were […]
Beauty of Swans

Spring Bee Photoshoot
With Spring eventually arriving I was taking some photos of Spring flowers and noticed a bee full of pollen and tried to get some snaps with the 24-105mm lens. Not a Macro lens but by getting in close and cropping later you can make the photo look closer than you actually were. I was also […]
Hook Head, Co .Wexford
On a brief trip to Hook Head, the oldest intact operational light house in the world, I decided to try out some ND grad filters. It was a sunny day so the ND grad filters would have controlled the light in areas of the photo which are too bright, such as the sky and clouds. […]
Waterford N25 Bridge at Night
The last time I visited the River Suir for a view of the N25 Bypass Bridge, also known as the Cat Flap to locals, I had a different camera and a different lens. Now armed with a Canon 7D and a 24-105 L Lens I was attempting a re-shoot. Shot just after the blue hour […]
Ladybird out for a Walk
This photo of a ladybird (or ladybug in the USA) I just liked because of the simplicity – one small ladybird in an vast green area. I also liked the texture of the grass stem which the lady bird is walking over. I deliberately used a low aperture so as to blur the background and […]

Legendary former Pacers coach and current radio announcer Bobby "Slick" Leonard suffered a heart attack following the Pacers win over the New York Knicks. We all wish the should-be Hall of Famer a speedy recovery.
This sad news overshadowed the Pacers first good game in a long time, where the team played very well minus Danny Granger, who was out with the flu. Tyler Hansbrough continued his scoring tear with a career-high 29 points to lead the Pacers to a 106-93 win.
We all hope to see Slick back on the sideline soon. With 529 coaching wins and three ABA championships, he is the original Pacers legend.

The Infection On My Bunion Incision

Three months after the bunion surgery, I noticed the incision area was very swollen and painful upon touches. Went to see the doctor and he prescribed me an anti-biotic pills and told me to soak my foot in the vinegar water. I did once but it felt more painful. Then I remembered all these YL oils I had in the cabinets.
I first put some purifications to clean the area, and guess what? Black blood was woozing out of the incision area. I also applied Thieves around the swollen area. In 2 days using purifications, melrose, and thieves, all pain disappeared and the whole incision area started looking very healthy. I was so glad I didn't have to take antibiotics and healed my foot using Young Living Essential oils!

Radiation monitor problem not failure' Entergy saysBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | July 28,2013The Shumlin administration wants more information from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission about what it called the failure of radiation monitors at the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant.
But Entergy Nuclear, owner of Vermont Yankee, said Saturday that while the monitors were not reporting properly, they still performed their function in controlling the ventilation of the reactor building.
Robert Williams, spokesman for Entergy, said the four monitors were showing spurious signals, but they were still able to perform their safety function.
He added, To be perfectly clear, the monitors did not fail. They did not fail; they were generating false signals.
According to Entergys preliminary report to the NRC, the monitors showed high levels of radiation in the the primary containment isolation system. A worker was sent in to check the reading, and verified radiation levels to be normal.
Williams said the plant had many radiation monitors, not just the ones that reported false signals.
Entergy decided as a precaution to replace the four monitors, which malfunctioned June 14 and again July 11, according to a report posted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission last week.
Darren Springer, deputy commissioner of the Department of Public Safety, released a letter Friday he had sent to the NRCs Region One administrator, William Dean. In the letter Springer asked for more information about the radiation monitors and questioning the 60-day period allowed for Entergy to file a report.
Springer couldnt be reached for comment Saturday.
Failure of the radiation monitoring equipment is a serious issue, and could have under other circumstances led to significant harm if the failed equipment had not detected a radiation release at the plant, Springer wrote to Dean.
The radiation monitors that had erroneous spikes were associated with the ventilation system.
According to the NRC notification of the problem, the cause of the spurious spikes is attributed to an unknown source of electrical noise, and the report noted the problem had been entered into Vermont Yankees corrective action plan.
Springer said the state wanted a full accounting of the information Vermont Yankee provided to the NRC about the incidents. His letter also asked for information on the age and functionality of the failed monitors and if they were considered when NRC relicensed Vermont Yankee in 2012 for another 20 years of operation.
Springer said the state felt that such a potentially serious equipment failure should not be allowed a 60-day reporting requirement rather than immediate notification.
Common sense would dictate that radiation monitoring equipment be functioning properly 100 percent of the time, and that such equipment failures would be immediately reported to regulators and corrected, he wrote to the NRC.

Thai Nakorn Garden Grove
Re-opening when?? Haven't been by in a while (haven't gone to Costco lately). I haven't seen it on the food radar but figure someone in the know (DU? Elmo?) would have the scoop. Also, drove by Bangkok Taste a few weeks ago on the way to a little league field and it looked closed?? Hopefully just a normal closed day.
As of last week, the owner stated that they were still having problems with the Garden Grove Building Inspectors...one week they approve something, the next week they want major changes on the same item...Their goal is now the middle of July...we will see!
What TravelPath said. You'll know they're serious when the Johnny-on-the-spot gets removed from the front of the building. They're really close though.
In New Jersey it'd be a case of forgetting to schmear the inspectors, but I suspect things are a bit more aboveboard here.
I'll be there with bells on as soon as I see them open, though!!
re: Das Ubergeek
I just asked them and they said maybe in a month or two -- but the sign is lit up, the tables are in, the chairs are in, the Johnny-on-the-spot is gone, and the fence is down.
Dear City of Garden Grove: you are keeping me from the Thai food I love. Quit messing around and let these people open already, you corrupt ninnies!
What TravelPath said is the most concrete info I've heard yet. Thanks TravelPath!
I also will be there with bells when this thing busts open.
We had dinner last night at the Stanton location and had a long talk with the owner...they are pulling their hair out with Garden Grove's permit process...they are dealing with conflicting information coming from the same inspectors...yesterday they were told by SoCal Edison that there were new reg in place and had to do more work...when their engineering firm confronted SoCal Edison and Garden Grove inspectors, they were told it was a new regulation that had not been published yet...but it was retroactive and will cost 1000s of dollars to comply with...the joys of new construction...Sigh! Thai Nakorn was ready to open several months ago and had hired new employees and has been paying them even though they are not working!
Begin Rant...The owners mortgaged their own homes to the limit to help pay for rebuilding...and as she indicated...if she knew the problems that the City of Garden Grove would cause, they would not have rebuilt there...if at all! (I would comment here about the inspection process of cities like Garden Grove...but the language I feel I would have to use is not for family audiences!...and this is from my own personal experiences as well as theirs!!) I am afraid government is not trying to be too friendly to small business...for example, in the design of the parking lot a certain number of spaces for handicapped parking is required...they installed the parking area but the city wanted a wall moved three inches...it was but it took less then three inches away from one of the parking spaces...the permit was withheld and it will cost them a pretty penny to fix it...no wonder businesses are leaving California in droves...End Rant!
Anyways, the dinner was excellent as usual...pad thai, nam sod, BBQ catfish (my fav), panang curry...ice cream...all so good! As usual, the staff all thanked us...a few hugs as well...and the owner said she appreciates our continued support...especially in these hard times.
The good news...the electricity is on in the new place and they hope to be open in a few weeks...but you don't have to wait for the new location...they deserve our support now!!
re: TravelPath
Update...We had dinner at the Stanton location last night and spoke to the owner...the city is still dragging its feet but there is some light at the end of the tunnel...they have a another health department inspection in a few days and the building inspectors are scheduled as well. They are keeping their fingers crossed that they will get the green light in the next couple of weeks! I hope so...these are nice people!!
The Garden Grove location of Thai Nakorn is now open! We had lunch there this afternoon (Sunday-8/23). The waitress who knows my family from years of dining at the Buena Park/Garden Grove/Stanton locations said that they opened on Saturday, 8/22. It seems like they have more seating for the main restaurant than before the fire. They still have a private room but today that room was being used for a photo or video shoot of certain menu items (we saw one of their most popular fish dishes, "Pla Dad Deaw" being shot on photo or video in the room).
The best thing I can say is everything we ordered tasted the same as at any previous location of Thai Nakorn (see our Iphone pic of their special "pla dad deaw" and water spinach). They only had about 20 people including us at 1pm but I expect that to grow as word gets out! Happy Days!
re: mercadog
Great news, thanks !
re: mercadog
Fantastic news. I'll head over for lunch.
re: Das Ubergeek
OK, now I've been (picked it up to go). Stuffed squid with chile and basil was good but the stuffing fell out of the squid... flavour was as good as ever. Mango salad with fried catfish bits was as good as ever -- oh, I love that dish. And I was given a bowl of tom kha gai (chicken-coconut soup) as a lagniappe, which was nice -- and really, really well-executed.
For those who may be planning to visit for the first time, bear in mind that the spicing level is on the Thai scale, not the American scale, so "medium" to them will get you spicy food, "spicy" to them will get you extra-spicy food, and "extra" or "Thai spicy" will sear your mouth off.
I'm so happy. It's four minutes' drive away. You could bike down the river trail and get off at Memory/GG Blvd. and eight minutes later be at Thai Nakorn. I'm so, so happy.
re: Das Ubergeek
Wow...I'm impressed (though I shouldn't be by now) by your dedication. Thanks to you & mercadog for your updates/reviews.
re: Das Ubergeek
Hi Das,
Thanks for the report back. :) Would you say the dishes you tried are just as good as their other location?
re: exilekiss
Yes, I would.
re: Das Ubergeek
I actually think that it is even a little better than their Stanton location...if this is humanly possible! I have eaten at the GG location a number of times this past week and the quality is absolutely revelatory...The owner said that most senior cooks are at the GG location. ..and I believe it! Das Ubergeek is absolutely correct, the Squid is terrific and I crave their mango salad in my dreams...in addition to the BBQ catfish and the Panang and the nam sod and crispy rice and the spicy wild boar with basil and larb muu...and so many other things. Yes, I had lunch there today, and if I could, I would tomorrow as well...it is that good!!
re: TravelPath
What great news! I'll be doing my annual Anaheim Convention Center visit in January and the Garden Grove location is much more convenient than Stanton. Looking forward to trying it again!
Thai Nakorn Restaurant
12532 Garden Grove Blvd, Garden Grove, CA 92843
re: Das Ubergeek
Oh, I've been there several times over the years both in Garden Grove and Stanton. But not as often in Stanton due to the longer drive, which sometimes you just don't feel like doing after a long convention day. The specials page is indeed my main focus.
Das Ubergeek, thanks so much for all of yours and your fellow OC Chowhounds' recommendations over the years. We now have a great set of restaurants to choose from that offer delicious food we can't find up in Silicon Valley within close range of the Anaheim Convention Center. It sure wasn't that way pre-Chowhound days!
re: mdg
For those regulars who know the most gracious and kind host/manager Sandy, she informed me last week that next year (2010) will likely be her last year at TN as she is planning on returning to Thailand after living in the States for quite awhile. That news was a major blow to me as Sandy has become a friend ever since she helped me plan a big German Riesling wine tasting/dinner at the original GG building about 8 years ago. So, please stop in (except for January as she won't be there) and say farewell to Sandy sometime in 2010! I will surely miss her.
re: Youndo
Yup...Sandy is a gem...and so is Noh for that matter! I don't blame Sandy for wanting to go back to Thailand...she has been building a small resort on her family's land on Koh Samui for a number of years now (she will show you the pictures if you ask her!)...it looks very nice and is very reasonable!! I am ready to go there as well!!...and yes, I will miss Sandy and her big smile as well!!

Featured Quote
this wiki
Forum page
The stories on this wiki have tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of memorable moments, be they dialogue or narrative. But now we're about to find a favorite! Nominate a quote that meets the guidelines below, and see if it comes out on top! Vote either Support or Oppose.
Previous Winners
See: Forum:List of Featured Quotes
Nominating Rules
- Don't take the word "Quote" literally. Narrative passages can be just as quoteworthy as dialogue.
- Please identify the story that the Quote comes from.
- You may nominate Quotes from other people's stories without permission (but see rule #5 below).
- If you nominate a Quote from a story that you did not write or collaborate on, then you must identify yourself as the nominator. This is necessary because of Rule #6 below.
- A story's author has veto power over Quotes from that story. If you object to a particular Quote that someone else has nominated from your story (e.g. because it gives away a spoiler), then you may remove that nominee for any reason or for none, with no questions asked.
- Only one Quote per story per nominator. In other words, two people could each nominate a Quote from Story X, but one person may not nominate two Quotes from it. One person could, however, nominate one Quote from Story X and one Quote from Story Y.
- Please limit nominations to 100 words or less. "Near-miss" Quotes that exceed this limit by only a few words may be allowed at the Ballot Administrator's discretion. Exception: Uninterrupted monologues may be any length. (Updated 2 September 2014)
- Please be aware of spoiler potential when nominating a Quote from someone else's story.
- No in-jokes, please. Quotes must be understandable outside the context of the story, except as noted below.
- Quotes must appear on an actual story page. Ancillary materials from character pages, blog-based previews, etc. are ineligible.
- Quotes must be formatted exactly as they are in the story, except as noted below. The easiest way to comply with this rule is by copy-and-paste.
- If you need to add tags to identify speakers or subjects, please italicize them.
- If you need to add narrative text to make a line understandable out of context, enclose the added text in brackets [thusly]. This is standard journalistic practice for quoting things. Note that such added text should be only a few words, if that.
- If a Quote is in past tense in the story, it must be in past tense on the ballot. Ditto for other tenses.
- A Quote may be shortened to meet length limitations. If you do this, replace the removed portion with an ellipsis (...).
Voting Rules
- You must have an account and 100 total edits to vote. You must be logged in and your vote must be signed so the administrators can verify voter eligibility.
- Nominees receiving 5 or more Oppose votes may be removed from the ballot at the discretion of the administrators.
- Vote on as many Quotes as you wish, but only once on each. You may not vote for a Quote from your own story. This includes collaborating authors.
- If you nominate a Quote from a story that you did not write or collaborate on, then you may also vote for it.
- A nominated quote must have at least four Support votes to win, or six votes if running unopposed. If no candidate gets enough votes, there will be no Featured Quote for that month. Disallowed "winners" are eligible to run again. (Added 2 September 2014)
- The following rules must be followed when Opposing a quote:
- You must provide a reason for your vote. "No" and "Sorry" are not reasons.
- Oppose votes that appear to be needlessly harsh or that don't observe basic rules of civility will be deleted. If it's worth saying, it can be said politely.
- Please try to provide constructive criticism. This is the whole point of the Oppose option, because Oppose votes aren't actually counted.
- "I want another quote to win" votes will be deleted. If you want another Quote to win, then cast a Support vote for the other Quote and leave it at that.
- "This isn't funny" is only a valid reason to Oppose if the Quote was meant to be funny. Votes opposing an obviously dramatic quote on the grounds that "it's not funny" will be deleted.
- Your opinion of the character(s) associated with a quote is NOT relevant to the merits of the quote itself. Featured Character is a separate ballot, so don't shoot the message.
- "There are better quotes from this story" votes will be deleted because that's irrelevant to the merits of the Quote that actually got nominated. Remember, you can nominate Quotes from other people's stories--so if you think there's a better Quote that's not on the ballot, then why not nominate it yourself?
In the event of a tie, the Ballot Administrator will break the tie if he hasn't already voted. Otherwise, the ballot will remain open until the tie is broken.
Due to chronic lack of participation, Featured Quote does not currently use themes.

A few weeks ago, I noted that the finalists in WaPo's competition, in which first prize is a spot on the paper's op-ed page for several weeks, were rather pale and male.
Now, the contest is down to the final four (two men, two women, all four of whom are white) and it's time to cast your vote! I'm voting for Nancy Goldstein, a journalist who writes with insight and intelligence about class, race, gender and LGBT issues, among a host of others.
Voting is elimination style, so you're voting to keep Goldstein on (which means you need to vote to eliminate one of the other four contestants). You can read Nancy's fantastic writing here and vote to keep her in the running here. Voting closes at 6pm EST TODAY, so don't put it off!

Only problem is that, at the moment, it does not work on joomla 3.x, although that is being worked on.
Thanks for this great free extension.

Unfortunataly I found that, once logged in, a log out button is needed, and maybe some info. When a user is logged in, only his picture is displayed, nothing more, not even his name. Hopefully that will be added in the future.
Also has a nice backend to check out which users logged in, and you can even get their emails and basic info for several stuff.
I'll be looking forward for more development on this one!
Thanks Saaraan!

A kitchen knife incident, flickering lights and taps that splutter-sputter... Yep, we're definitely in haunted house territory here as director Jaume Balagueró shows off his mastery of shocker clichés with misplaced enthusiasm.
No wonder this lamentable Spanish-US co-production stayed on the (quite probably wonky) shelf for three years. Iain Glen and Lena Olin are the overworked American couple who decide to downshift to rural Spain and life in a creepy, rundown home of muted greys and greens. Only daughter Regina (Anna Paquin) has the smarts to realise something is wrong. It says much about the script's failings that it needs lengthy monologuing from Giancarlo Giannini's apparently kindly grandpop to build a tiresome backstory of eclipses, missing children and ancient evil. Mark for demolition.
