PALO ALTO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/12/12 -- The Anita Borg Institute (ABI), a non-profit organization focused on the advancement of women in computer science and engineering, in conjunction with ACM India, will present the third annual Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing India (GHCI) in Bangalore on December 12-14, 2012. It is the largest gathering of technical women in India. Also held annually in the U.S., the event features tracks focused on new and emerging technologies, career development, and innovation and entrepreneurship.
This year's GHCI theme "Beyond Boundaries" recognizes that individuals must be willing to cross cultural and technological boundaries for innovation to take place. The event provides a host of unique opportunities and firsts for women in the high technology industry in India, whether they are established women or those just entering the field. For example, ABI, in collaboration with ThoughtWorks Social Impact Program and Yahoo!, will host India's first ever women-only Hackathon, providing women a platform to collaborate and write code on Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), while contributing to humanitarian projects. There will also be a Women Entrepreneur Quest with six finalists selected from over 63 entries who will pitch their start-up companies to venture capital leaders, angel investors and other serial entrepreneurs.
The three day event will feature 120 speakers, presenters and workshop leaders, including industry leaders Kirthiga Reddy (Director Online Operations, Facebook India), Nora Denzel (Technical Executive and Corporate Board Member), Raji Arasu (CTO, StubHub), Meena Ganesh (Promoter and Board Member, TutorVista; CEO and MD, Pearson Education Services) and many others. GHCI will also host a career fair for students where they can meet sponsoring company representatives, apply for jobs or internships, and network with other peers in the industry.
The Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing India is sponsored by 24 leading technology companies that include: Founding Sponsor: Google and Gold Corporate Sponsors: Cisco, Microsoft, NetApp.
ABI continues to expand its reach, programs and efforts globally. "The Anita Borg Institute strives to inform and empower women in high technology positions all across the globe," said Telle Whitney, president and CEO of the Anita Borg Institute. "We are thrilled with the success of the Grace Hopper Celebration India because it provides a wonderful forum for technical women in this region of the world to come together and share technical and career information that will help them advance their careers and deliver more innovative solutions for their companies."
Co-founded by Dr. Anita Borg and Dr. Telle Whitney in 1994 and inspired by the legacy of Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, the Grace Hopper Celebration (GHC) of Women in Computing is a conference designed to bring the research and career interests of women in computing to the forefront.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic • Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural style...

For a team with legitimate aspirations for a playoff berth, the Royals have several needs. Offensively, the Royals have been putrid, ranking last in home runs by a wide margin and ranking near the bottom in baseball in several other offensive categories. The Royals vaunted bullpen has struggled this season, with Greg Holland, Wade Davis and Kelvin Herrera as the only truly reliable options.
What areas specifically could the Royals be targeting at the trade deadline? Glad you asked.
1. Right field. At the time, Nori Aoki seemed to be the perfect fit as the Royals needed both a right fielder and a leadoff hitter. With his ability to make contact and speed, Aoki seemed to be a perfect fit. Instead, Aoki has been awful in Kansas City, palying below replacement level and being used as part of a platoon with Jarrod Dyson. The Royals need another big bat in the lineup, and right field could be the position that would be easiest to upgrade.
2. Left handed relievers. Tim Collins has regressed since his 2012 campaign, as his ERA, WHiP and walk rate have increased while his strikeout rate has decreased. Once the primary lefty out of Ned Yost's bullpen, Collins has struggled to the point where he has been banished to Omaha. Francisley Bueno, the other true lefty reliever in the bullpen, has been solid, but has a K/9 just above 4 for the season and has dealt with injury issues. A reliable left hander out of the bullpen could be high on the Royals shopping list.
3. Bench help. As of June 28th, Pedro Ciriaco and Brett Hayes have combined for 88 plate appearances. Ciriaco has an OPS+ of 34, which is actually light years better than Hayes, who has somehow put together an OPS+ of -15. Negative fifteen. While the Royals backup catcher and utility infielder have not played much, the Royals will need to rest players during the dog days of summer. Getting actual major league talent to back up Salvador Perez and to be the utility infielder would certainly help.

Hi all,
I am the ICT support technician at a Primary School with approx 300 students in Yorkshire.
The school has an external support company which provides printers, laptops, desktops, and on-site support. Early next year our contract with them is expiring and I have been asked to get some quotes from at least 3 companies for the governing body to decide on.
I don't like having a waiting period for problems I can solve myself and much prefer doing that for everyone's sake. Whenever I have to call them out for help it is almost always because I've realized I have too much on my plate (I work 25 hours a week and my role is quite broad) and we may as well use them! I am able to solve most problems myself, though in some areas I am not 'supposed to', or unfamiliar with the set up provided by our outside company so it's easier to get them to come in.
I have 2 questions for anyone who would care to pipe in.
1. Have you any experience with particular outside support companies in the Yorkshire area and any you would recommend?
2. From day one I have felt a little restricted in supporting the school as best I can so I am considering asking for more responsibilities and freedom in my role (and probably more hours to cope with it) and feel like this is a good opportunity to do so. Has anyone been in a similar situation before?
Thanks, this is a great forum!

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have two boys who attended an Independent School in Fredericksburg since Pre-K. Last year was our first year at Chancellor Elementary. I have to say it was more challenging, had more up-to-date technology, classrooms were just as small and the excellent faculty is on par with their Independent School, which was quite expensive. I feel fortunate that my children are able to get this amazing educational experience in a public school!
I have two Children at Chancellor Elementary the oldest is in fifth grade The youngest is in first the teachers and all the other staff are wonderful I cant say enough about this great school.
This school is A++++++ The teachers really care about the students and the school is committed to education.
I am very glad with the education my children are getting at this school. 5 of my 6 kids have attended the school. Only positive words can be expressed when this school is mentioned. The staff and teachers are very caring about the kids. They go up and beyond to make sure their students understand the class/homework assignments. The principal makes sure that things are done right and on time.
I have had two children go through Chancellor Elementary and our experience was FABULOUS!! All their teachers were so encouraging and attentive to their needs. I am happy to say that my children continue to excel in middle school with straight A's and it is thanks to the efforts of their early educators at Chancellor.
Would recommend that any parent of a child with special needs take a good look at your child's homeroom teacher if attending this school. My son is primarily in Special Education classes, but has homeroom, lunch, and specials within the regular classroom. When we attended the Meet and Greet prior to school starting, I observed his homeroom teacher VISIBLY flinch away from him as if he had a disease. Since this day, I have had nothing but complaints from her. I have had staff at the school give me unsolicited information and warnings about her behavior toward all students who are in the Special Education classroom. Teachers like this do not belong in the classroom. I don't get complaints from any other teachers, which tells me the fault lies within this teacher. He is extremely observant, and I am quite sure he can tell that she does not like him. I am grateful that he has only 1 year to endure at this location.
This is a sad day for our family. For many, many years, my family has had children go through Chancellor, but my last has moved to middle school. I can not say enough about the school, staff and wonderful teachers.(Wineberger, Azzarelli, Fultze to name a few) For the last two years, we have had a wonderful principal in Mr. Hudson who has who has really whipped this school into a top notch, child-centered learning facility. Way to go to all the staff of Chancellor. ps. I went to Chancellor as a child as well.
We bought our house because it was in this school's boundry. We've had 3 children in the school so far and it is fantastic.
My son transferred here from another county school. We could not be more pleased. Every staff member I've met from the custodian to the cafeteria helper and secretaries know my son by his first name. Children here are allowed to be children and not just test result numbers. For now, it also has a better student-to-teacher ratio than many other county schools. Communication is good and I am amazed that my child is coming home with at least 2x the amount of completed work as his last school with none of the stress. This school is older and a wee bit quirky, and it's right on the now busy Rt 3 which for us is a safety concern, but so far, so good. This school and staff warmly remind me of my own wonderful KG experience 35 years ago.
Chancellor Elementary's atmosphere is family oriented. The teachers are extremely dedicated to what they are there for. When compared to other schools I've had experience with, Chancellor stands out in every aspect.
I have been involved in this school for many years. I thought this was a top notch school, however since we arrived at this this school my opinion has definately changed. If parents actually knew the behavior of the Principal down to the Teachers they would be as upset as I am. The PTA at this school is more concerned about how 'big' their bank account will be at the end of the year.
Chancellor is a fantaastic elementary school. The program is supportive and extra help is provided when needed. The teaching staff is highly qualified and enthusiastic. My daughter loves to go to school and loves the family atmosphere there. It is comfortable and the sense of community is wonderful. The PTA is very active and parents are always welcome to sit in on classes. We love this school.
I have a son in the forth grade and he absolutely loves this school. All of the teachers are friendly and honestly care about the quality of education that is being taught in the school. The parents act as though they are family to one another and are all active in the functions that go on in the school. My husband & I were going to move to a neighborhood closer to his job, however we would not leave the school district and will stay here until each of our boys are out of school.
I have a Kindergartener and a third grader in this school. My girls love going to school. I give this school a top rating. I have only heard positive statements from other families. The staff are very loving. We will be sad to leave such a great school and great education.

THURSDAY, Dec. 1 (HealthDay News) -- Americans' awareness of
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is rising, but many of
those at risk don't talk to their doctor about symptoms, according
to a new survey by the U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood
Symptoms of COPD -- the third-leading cause of death in the
United States -- include shortness of breath, chronic coughing or
wheezing, excess sputum production and a feeling of not being able
to take a deep breath.
COPD affects 24 million people in the United States, but as many
as half of them haven't been diagnosed.
The NHLBI Internet survey of almost 4,200 adults found that 71
percent of respondents said they are aware of COPD, compared with
65 percent in 2008.
Awareness was highest among those most at risk, current and
former smokers. Awareness was 78 percent among current smokers and
76 percent among former smokers, compared to 69 percent and 68
percent, respectively, in 2008.
The survey also found that 27 percent of current smokers said
they had suffered from a chronic cough or wheezing, or had been too
short of breath to do normal activities in the past year. That's
more than double the rate in the general population (13
However, 40 percent of smokers who said they had these COPD
symptoms had not discussed them with a doctor or other health care
"COPD is surpassing other diseases as a major killer in this country. We want to reverse this trend by educating people about the symptoms, so they can get proper treatment as early as possible," James Kiley, director of the NHLBI Division of Lung Diseases, said in an institute news release.
"It is not enough to have heard of COPD. Those at risk need to know the signs so they can talk to their health care provider about any breathing problems they are having and, hopefully, find relief," he added.

|At 3-0, Cincinnati Bearcats are starting to sell tickets and get national notice
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 19 September 2007 10:50
The opening month has gone close to perfect for Cincinnati, where things have been so-so, at best, for a very long time.
The Bearcats (3-0) have forced themselves into the national conversation with their strong early showing under coach Brian Kelly, who has turned an 8-5 team into one that believes it deserves better.
A run at a Big East title, perhaps?
``That's something we didn't really think about here,'' safety Haruki Nakamura said. ``We knew Louisville, Rutgers and West Virginia were always going to be in the top half of the bracket. We were just trying to fit in.
``When he came in and said, 'Hey, we're going to try to win a championship,' we were like, 'Oh, he believes we can be one of those teams.' Now everybody's got that confidence, and we understand that we can do it.''
Early results suggest it's not only daydreaming.
The Bearcats put themselves on the map last season with their 30-11 victory over Rutgers under coach Mark Dantonio, who left for Michigan State after the last regular season game. Kelly got the job, led the Bearcats to their International Bowl victory over Western Michigan, then overhauled a conservative offense that failed to capture the fans' imagination.
For the last 13 years, the Bearcats had been coached by former defensive coordinators. It showed in their plodding offense. Even though the Bearcats had one of the conference's best defenses last season, they struggled to score points in the most important games.
Kelly installed the no-huddle, spread offense that he polished at Central Michigan. He raised the standards, saying a middle-of-the-pack finish wasn't good enough. And he started promoting a program that was an afterthought locally - an average of 21,000 fans showed up for games last season.
They're starting to notice.
On Monday, the school sent out a notice informing fans they won't be allowed to stand on concourse areas of Nippert Stadium anymore because large crowds are expected for the rest of the home games.
``It's a lot different,'' senior running back Doug Jones said. ``You look at the success we've had in the past, it hasn't been very good.
``I've been through hard times, been through good times. This is the best team and the most disciplined team I've ever been part of. We felt we deserved a little national recognition, and we're finally getting it. It's a great feeling for us.''
The defense is getting the bulk of the attention from opposing coaches. The Bearcats have a lot of speed on a unit that returns seven starters and was among the Big East's best last season. So far, it's been even better.
The Bearcats have given up only one touchdown in the first three games. They lead the nation in turnover margin, with 11 interceptions and six fumbles already. The 16 points allowed is the second-fewest among bowl subdivision teams.
``Most of the people on this defense have been playing together for three years,'' junior end Anthony Hoke said. ``We've got that camaraderie. We can trust each other. So I think we've got a lot going for us.''
A victory on Saturday against winless Marshall would leave them 4-0 for the first time since 1954.
They'll get a better feel for where they rank in the Big East hierarchy when they play at Rutgers, home against Louisville and at Pittsburgh in successive weeks. Until then, the idea is to learn how to handle high expectations and high praise, something new for the Bearcats.
``We talk about it now,'' Kelly said. ``We talk about it every day. Last week, we talked about: Don't become infected with success. This week we talked about: That bandwagon is starting to fill up a little bit. So with that come other things.
``There's going to be some adversity, there's no question about that. The road and the climb to the top is difficult. We used the analogy yesterday of the climb on Mount Everest. The top is a championship. We've just started.''

My goals? Very simple - giving the best of myself in anything I do & giving love and support to people that care about me. I want to blow the candles off my 90th birthday cake thinking: "Ah, that was a life well spent. Now pass me another Cointreaupolitan!"
I'm considering a customized motif by one my favourite artists- Takato Yamamoto, combined with a colour tattoo. It should cover my back, but I'm still discussing the optimal size with the artist.
I dig scarification much more than piercings, plus I'm satisfied with the current number of holes in my body.
As for the wanting part, I can't wait for my baby to get a special kind of a wedding ring visible only to me.
One has claws at the end of its paws and one is a pause at the end of a clause.

[ 9/10 ]
Nice, clean park with level concrete pads. Great laundry facilities (you buy washes and dries from the front office on a card - no quarters!). Nicely maintained outdoor pool surrounded by honeysuckle vines. Not much shade at all, but we experienced a great amount of breeze while we were there so we didn't need AC in the middle of July. Paid half price on Passport America ($27) and it was a great value. Walking distance to convenience store, fast-food, etc. There is also a truck wash nearby with very reasonable rates that did a great job of cleaning off the road grime from our rig.

[ 10/10 ]
Lovely little park with very clean facilities. We got a spot around the pond that had a deck with chairs and a chiminea there for our use (ask for one of the lower-numbered spots). Proprietor was even nice enough to provide us with enough wood scraps for a fire when we told her we had no room in our travel van to store a bundle. Watched the hummingbirds feeding on the fuchsias too! We would definitely stay here again.
Silverlake, Washington
Silver Cove Resort
[ 5/10 ]
We had stayed here a few years ago and were happy with the amenities...this time, not so much. I made my reservation by phone and was not informed that the owners were "at war with Comcast" (park host's words) until we arrived to check in. We were told there were three channels available via antenna - wrong again. Never could connect with their "free wi-fi" either, but AT&T gave me 2-3 bars. Definitely not worth what they are charging and no discount for lack of cable was offered either. We will try the KOA next time we are in the area. 5 rating for cleanliness of grounds and graveled , fairly level lots.

Eva Zeisel
(1906–2011) Born in Budapest in 1906, Eva Stricker entered the Royal Academy of Fine Arts at age 17, intending to become a painter, but her mother prevailed upon her to learn some trade whereby she could earn a living, the world of fine art being chancy. So Eva apprenticed herself to a traditional potter and began learning her trade.
The life of the apprentice in any of the trades was not always easy or pleasant, but Eva persisted and soon graduated to journeyman status. Just a year after that her work was displayed at the Philadelphia Sesquicentennial, where she won an honorable mention. By then she was working as a designer in the Kispester Factory in Budapest.
She then advertised in the trade papers that she was a qualified journeyman seeking a position and received several responses. When asked recently why she chose Hamburg, she did she replied, "Because it was the farthest from home." She wanted to travel and widen her experience of the world and at the same time increase her skills. After working in Hamburg she accepted a job as designer for the Schramberger Majolika Fabrik, in Schramberg, Germany. There she acquired skills in all phases of industrial production and became one of the first (and certainly the first woman) to move the ceramic arts into contemporary mass production.
She later moved to Berlin, where she designed for Carstens. In 1932 she went to Russia on vacation in order to experience the new artistic and social movements there, as did many other idealistic young artists and intellectuals. As an experienced industrial designer she was soon offered a position assisting in the modernization of the ceramic industry, where her creativity and dynamism stood her well.
She traveled to many parts of Russia in order to understand and coordinate efforts to create a central manufactory that would make products for the homes of the everyday citizenry. Her efforts were recognized, and she was soon transferred to the Lomonosov factory in Leningrad (the former Imperial Porcelain Factory). This eventually led to her appointment as Artistic Director for the Porcelain and Glass Industries for the entire country.
In 1936, however, she was caught up in one of the Stalinist purges, falsely accused of plotting against the life of Stalin. She was imprisoned in the NKVD prison for 16 months, most of the time in solitary confinement. She was subjected to early forms of brainwashing and the constant possibility that each day would be her last. (Arthur Koestler, a lifelong friend, based his book Darkness at Noon on some of her prison experiences. See also Eva Zeisel: A Soviet Prison Memoir, 2012.)
Then one day she was unexpectedly led out of her cell to what she feared was to be her execution, but was instead put on a train to Austria in the clothes she was standing in. Just as the reason for her imprisonment was never really known, so is the reason for her release.
Once in Austria, she left on the last train out at the time of the Anschluss and went to England, where she married Hans Zeisel, who had waited seven years for her. In 1938 they went to New York where they settled permanently.
In 1939 she created a course in ceramic arts as industrial design at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where she taught until 1952.
One of her first designs in the U. S. was for Sears, Roebuck. Later, she designed for Hall China, Red Wing China, Castleton China, Norleans Meito (Japan), Western Stoneware, Hyalyn, Phillip Rosenthal (Germany), Mancioli (Italy), Federal Glass, Heisey Glass, Noritake (Japan), Nikkon Toki (Japan), and many others.
Eva Zeisel received many honors for her outstanding achievements, beginning with her selection in 1942 by The Museum of Modern Art, New York (MoMA), to design a line of fine porcelain dinnerware for the Castleton China Company of Pennsylvania. The designs were not completed and produced until 1945, due to wartime restriction, but were presented at a one-woman show at MoMA in 1946.
- In 1982 she received a senior award from the National Endowment for the Arts and was the subject of a touring exhibition sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Montreal, in 1984.
- In 1988, Zeisel was awarded an honorary doctorate by the Royal College of Arts, London, and in 1991 she was awarded an honorary doctorate by Parsons The New School for Design, New York.
- 1998 – received the Binns Metal from the New York State College of Ceramics, Alfred University NY, for Excellence in Ceramic Art
- 2000 – received the Industrial Design Society of America Bronze Apple Award
- 2001 – made an Honorary Member of the American Ceramics Society

- 2004 – named an Honorary Royal Designer by the Royal Designers for Industry, London, a part of the Royal Society of Arts (the highest award given to a non-British subject)
- 2005 – given an honorary doctorate from the Rhode Island School of Design
- 2005 – received the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award for Lifetime Achievement, followed by
- 2006 – luncheon at the White House with Laura Bush
- 2006 – received a Lifetime Achievement Award from Bon Appetit Magazine
Eva Zeisel's works are in the permanent collections of the Brohan Museum, Germany; the British Museum; The Victoria and Albert Museum, London; the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Montreal; The Museum of Modern Art, New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Brooklyn Museum, as well as the Dallas, Knoxville, Milwaukee, Hillwood (Washington, D.C.), Erie (NY), and Mingei International (San Diego) museums in the United States, among others. She has had retrospective exhibitions in dozens of museums in the U. S. and abroad and lectured widely during her lifetime.
Her recent works, some no longer in production, include designs for Zsolnay Factory in Pecs, Hungary, as well as the American firms of Nambé, Orange Chicken Gallery, MGlass, and Acme Studios. The Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum, and more recently, the Neue Galerie, have issued new releases of some of her early designs in new glazes and colors, always supervised by Zeisel. To celebrate her 100th birthday, Zeisel designed her first tea kettle, for Chantal, of Texas. Zeisel's current work includes offerings by KleinReid, Design Within Reach, The Rug Company, Neue Galerie, Gump's, Trikeenan Tileworks, Eva Zeisel Originals (www.EvaZeiselOriginals.com), WexelArt, and Royal Stafford (Century Classic, carried by Crate and Barrel and 101 Dinnerware).
A book about Zeisel's work, Eva Zeisel: The Playful Search for Beauty, by Lucie Young (Chronicle Books), was published in 2003.
Eva Zeisel died on December 30, 2011.

Blepharitis is inflammation of the eyelid. It is a very common eye disease that affects the edge of the eyelids and eyelash hair follicles. There are three main types of blepharitis:
The primary types of blepharitis are caused by either a skin condition or a bacterial infection. Blepharitis often occurs along with
seborrheic dermatitis
and acne rosacea.
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
Risk factors for blepharitis include:
Symptoms depend on the cause of the blepharitis. They are usually worse in the morning and involve both eyes.
Symptoms may include:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam. Initially you may not have any special tests. If the inflammation looks unusual for blepharitis or fails to respond to treatment, the doctor may do a culture by passing a swab across the edge of the lid. The swab is sent to a lab to see if bacteria grow, and, if so, what kind. Your ophthalmologist may also decide to perform a
by removing a tiny piece of the eyelid margin for microscopic examination to be certain that there is no sign of cancer (rarely, some cancers can mimic chronic blepharitis).
Blepharitis is a chronic condition that often requires long-term management. Treatment depends on the cause of the condition. Your doctor may advise you not to wear contact lenses until the blepharitis has resolved.
In mild cases, careful, daily eyelid hygiene may bring the inflammation under control:
If an infection is causing the blepharitis, you will be given antibiotic eye ointment.
Topical corticosteroids may be needed for severe inflammation and complications.
Oral antibiotics are used for more serious infections.
If you are diagnosed with blepharitis, follow your doctor's
If you are susceptible to blepharitis, conscientious eyelid hygiene can help prevent a recurrence:

The Oakland Raiders did an excellent job in the first round of the draft, as they were able to pounce on Khalil Mack with the No. 5 overall pick and add him to a front seven that looks quite formidable heading into the 2014 season. They were never expected to go for a quarterback in the first round of the draft, but there's always been plenty of speculation that the Raiders will pull a QB in the second round of the draft.
Derek Carr seems to make plenty of sense on paper, and the "local" prospect is my No.2-ranked quarterback in this year's draft class. Blessed with the strongest arm in the class, plenty of athleticism, and solid decision-making skills, Carr was constrained by Fresno State's spread offense more than he was helped by it, especially since his offensive line was a farce. Carr had one great receiver in Davante Adams, but the rest of the weapons around him were overrated and only looked good because of Carr's placement and ability to avoid sacks and interceptions.
The NFL Network's Albert Breer recently predicted the top picks of the second round of the draft, and he has the Raiders taking Carr with the 36th overall pick. Meanwhile, the Bleacher Report's Matt Miller reports that "a lot of signs" are pointing towards the Raiders drafting Carr in the second round. Matt Schaub is locked in as the short-term starter, but drafting Carr makes a whole lot of sense. Not only is it possible that Schaub's awful play last year could carry into this season and beyond, but the Raiders would be wise to draft a QB like Carr and allow him to develop behind Schaub for a season or two.

Learn everything from scratch, starting from illustration to the completed animation.
All in high definition video taught by our incredible animator, Conan Sinclair.
Take your Adobe Flash skills to the next level with industry tips.
CartoonSmart was the first training website to offer HD video. Seriously. Before YouTube was even founded, we realized screencasts needed to be way bigger than what others were offering. Nothing will replace books in the training spectrum, but sometimes you just want to put your feet up and watch someone else work. Since 2004, our customers haven't had to squint.
The techniques in this lesson could apply to any animation software, but your instructor uses Adobe Flash, a multimedia and software platform used for authoring vector graphics, animation, games, and apps. Optionally you can also use After Effects to compile an exported frame sequence from Flash, and add some extra FX. Any non-linear video editing program could also be used.
Conan Sinclair is a professional animator and illustrator, and one-half of the team at SIN ARS STUDIOS, a small independent game development studio located in Victoria, Australia. For freelance inquiries, you can contact Conan through his website, Sinars-Studios.com.
Join Conan Sinclair in this multi-hour course as he teaches the main technique for production-quality character rigging in Flash: symbol swapping, which allows for more freedom and complex animations than the other common technique, puppet rigging (simply rotating or moving the same artwork). While animation is the primary focus of this series, Conan will be starting from scratch and teaching how to illustrate the entire character as well. You'll then learn how to use symbol swapping to animate the head (from multiple views), the mouth (for lip syncing) and the body. Which all leads up to creating the example animation below.
Conan uses a free extension called Keyframe Caddy, available at CloudKid.com, to speed up animation.
Below you can watch the first 17 minutes of the tutorial...

Can you be a little more sarcastic ?
Try something new for a change.
Alternatively, "Stocks notched another positive day today on the heels of yesterday's 291 point gain." Your sarcasm and negativity does get tiresome, Mark.
Let's tax big business federal tax credits for overeseas taxes
Mark, Unlike Mz, I appreciate your sarcasm. Today's close in equities was pretty negative. Let's watch and measure the 10am bounce off the opening low. And let's talk leadership. We're always talking bullish leadership: What about bearish leaders? And I got to tell ya. If the tech stocks are bear leaders during this cyclical time of year, well then, we're in for a 20% down market in 2012.
