Looks like this will be the cover of my upcoming book. Not easy settling on a cover for the first book of my work. I tried serious and beautiful but ultimately I've wanted to use this image forever and it says something about me. Simple can be beautiful. Humor can be serious. I'll reveal more over time.

Narmored Guard
"The Mobile Narmored Guard Big Bear Double Ball-Peen Hammer Challenge"
An experiment. Toying with a storyline having to do with the Narmored Guard. I'm not yet sure how I'll draw it yet.

New Painting on Wood
"The Bird is Home"
This is a painting that I have been working on here and there for awhile. I was thinking it would be used on the cover of my book and the book's subtitle would be The Bird is Home. But it's not enough and I was over thinking the title thing. Moving on but the painting is still OK with a great message. The bird really belongs in my brain.

Illustration for Germany
This is an illustration I did for a German client. Pretty heavily art directed but it's a piece I can finish in color and sell. Strange seeing work like this of mine in black and white.

Finally finished, after painting it over three or four times, the second in a trilogy coming from a narrative provided by one of my favorite collectors. Tree as character is an interesting challenge.

It's at that point where I could keep adding stuff forever but should probably stop. I'll let it stew for awhile but for now I'm stopping. 12x16 acrylic on panel

Spies Process
I feel like I haven't posted anything new for awhile now so I'm posting this progress pic on the right. Bad scan and still a ways off from finished but it's a cool look at how much something can change during my process. Hope to have this done next week but no guarantees. Too many other things going on. Also this is a commission for an incredible artist whose work I really admire. Some perceived added pressure.

And of course always make time to keep an active sketchbook no matter how hard, how bad, or how little time you have. I've done better but I've also done worse. I love drawing. Sketching from life is best but finding time is difficult and drawing from a photo will do just fine.

Something a Little Different?
I'm excited about this piece. This is one of three being done for a client who started writing his own short story and wanted me to do some paintings from it. He didn't, and neither did I, wand illustrations but this naturally has a very narrative feel to it. I wish the colors did the original justice. I'm excited as I work on the other two.

Interface Announces Pending Sale Of Its Bentley Prince Street Subsidiary
ATLANTA, July 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Interface, Inc. (Nasdaq: IFSIA), a worldwide floorcoverings company and global leader in sustainability, today announced that it has entered into an agreement to sell its Bentley Prince Street subsidiary in an all-cash transaction valued at $35 million to Dominus Capital, a private equity investment firm, in partnership with Bentley Prince Street President Anthony Minite and other members of its senior management team. Based in Los Angeles, California, Bentley Prince Street manufactures and markets broadloom, carpet tile and area rugs for commercial interiors globally. For the full year 2011, the Bentley Prince Street division generated revenue of $104.0 million. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur sometime during the third quarter, subject to customary closing conditions.
"This is an excellent opportunity for both parties that is consistent with our overall strategy," said Daniel T. Hendrix, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "The sale of Bentley Prince Street will allow us to redeploy our capital into our core modular carpet operations, where we have the global scale to generate stronger returns and more value for our business. At the same time, the transaction will position Bentley Prince Street as a leading independent commercial carpet company with promising opportunities in its segments of the marketplace."
After the closing, Bentley Prince Street would continue to operate in California under the leadership of Anthony Minite, who would assume the additional role of CEO. Mr. Minite said that, in the meantime, daily operations will continue as normal.
Ashish Rughwani, Partner at Dominus Capital, added, "We're excited about the opportunity to partner with Anthony and the rest of the management team in this investment. We look forward to supporting them as they continue to expand their industry leading product portfolio and further build out their roster of dedicated clients around the globe. In addition to making a substantial financial commitment to Bentley Prince Street, we look forward to utilizing our previous experience in the floor covering industry, as well as our network of industry executives, to assist management in achieving its growth plans."Interface, Inc. is the world's largest manufacturer of modular carpet, which it markets under the Interface, FLOR, Heuga and Bentley Prince Street brands, and, through its Bentley Prince Street brand, enjoys a leading position in the designer quality segment of the broadloom carpet market.

Dec. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Egypt's two main Islamist blocs said they may have won more than 70 percent of votes in parliamentary elections this week that are the first major test of public opinion since the ouster of Hosni Mubarak.
The Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party said it won at least 40 percent in the first round of the elections, which took place in one-third of the country's provinces. The more conservative Salafi Al-Nour Party said it got at least 30 percent while the secular Egyptian Bloc said it may have won up to 20 percent of the vote.
None of the groups had access to final results from the first round, which are due today after a delay that state television said was the result of a slower-than-expected count due to high turnout. Run-offs in closely contested seats will begin on Dec. 5. With two more rounds of voting in the rest of the country to come after that, the assembly's make-up won't be clear until January.
The initial results offer an early indication that Islamic parties are set to play a leading role in the next phase of Egypt's transition toward democracy, which may bring the political groups in parliament into conflict with the ruling army council. The generals last week appointed former premier Kamal el-Ganzouri to form a government, and say they won't cede power until a president is elected in June.
'Broad Sentiments'
"These parties have succeeded in articulating broad sentiments that are widely appealing," Jon Alterman, director of the Middle East Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said of the Islamist groups. "The problem that all these parties will have is, how do you convert those sentiments into laws and policy? I don't think they figured that out."
The army's reluctance to cede power sparked a week of clashes that left more than 40 people dead and overshadowed the run-up to the two-day ballot, which ended on Nov. 29. Protesters accused the ruling generals of stifling freedoms while failing to restore security or revive an economy struggling to recover from the turmoil that accompanied the anti-Mubarak revolt.
Gross domestic product grew 1.8 percent in the fiscal year through June, the slowest in at least a decade. While the benchmark stock index has rallied more than 8 percent this week, boosted by the high voter turnout and lack of violence, it's still down 43 percent this year. Egypt's dollar bonds due in 2020 are trading at about 7 percent, close to a 10-month high.
The Brotherhood's party campaigned on a platform of reviving the economy by boosting investment in industry, agriculture and technology, and trimming the budget deficit.
Market Economy
There's no reason investors should worry about a Brotherhood election victory, because Islamist politics aren't "inconsistent with a flourishing market economy," Said Hirsh, Middle East economist at Capital Economics in London, said in an e-mailed note yesterday. Investors should be more concerned about Egypt's likely need for more than $10 billion in external financing next year, he said.
As it claimed an election victory, the Brotherhood also said that the powers of the elected assembly should be enhanced at the military's expense. "We reject any kind of guardianship over parliament," said Mohammed el-Beltagy, an official with the Freedom and Justice party.
Samer Soliman, a member of one of the parties in the Egyptian Bloc, said Islamists' gains so far may "scare" many Egyptians and help secular groups mobilize more voters for the two upcoming rounds. The bloc said it filed complaints against some violations marring the vote, such as "electoral bribes" and the use of "religious slogans" in some polling stations where it wants a repeat.
For now, the military-appointed el-Ganzouri is seeking to form a Cabinet. He said yesterday that he expects to complete that process by Dec. 3, adding that it's the army council and not parliament that has the right to appoint governments.
Protesters say Ganzouri's administration won't be legitimate. The April 6 Youth Movement, one of the groups that helped organize the anti-Mubarak uprising, called for demonstrations today to reject el-Ganzouri's appointment and demand a national salvation government with more powers. The group said its members will continue their sit-ins in Cairo's Tahrir Square and outside the Cabinet. Today's rallies are also to commemorate those killed in last week's violence.

Dominic Ongwen
Dominic Ongwen is the commander of the Sinia Brigade of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) rebel group founded in northern Uganda. As the head of one of the four LRA brigades, Ongwen is a member of the "Control Altar" of the LRA that directs military strategy. Ongwen is the lowest ranking of the five LRA leaders for whom the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued their first ever warrants in June 2005. He is charged with seven counts of crimes against humanity and war crimes.[1]
Ongwen was reported killed in combat with a unit of the Uganda People's Defence Force on October 10, 2005, and the identity of the body was confirmed by former LRA commanders.[2] However, in July 2006, the ICC reported that genetic fingerprinting of the body confirmed that it was not that of Ongwen. News reports at this time put Ongwen in southwest Equatoria, Southern Sudan, attempting to rejoin LRA head Joseph Kony in Garamba, Ituri Province, northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. Ongwen and a former wife featured in a film Picking up the Pieces by IRIN and released in October 2007.[3] Uganda People's Defence Force spokesperson Maj. Felix Kulayije commented, "Unfortunately, the bastard is still alive."[4]

Sam Nunis grew up west of Cedartown GA. The first racecars came to town aboard a freight train and caught the young boy's imagination. When he was sixteen, he hopped that train, but couldn't find work in the racing game. He wound up laboring in a Ford body plant north of Detroit.
Shortly after WW1, he joined Ralph Hankinson's traveling show. "There were eight or nine drivers in the troupe, and Hankinson owned the cars. Sometimes, they would fill out with locals, but the winner was usually prearranged." Hankinson's racers eventually joined the AAA circuit. In 1926, at Concord, Nunis was seriously injured when he crashed through the fence and his racecar overturned. After eighteen months of rehabilitation, Nunis rejoined Hankinson as his assistant and spent a decade learning to promote races up and down the east coast.
In 1944, Nunis bought Paterson NJ's "Gasoline Alley" and the local tavern from Joie Chitwood. After the war, "Slippery Sam" returned to promoting races, including nearly all the AAA contests on the east coast. His P.A. announcer, Chris Economacki described Nunis' empire, "I always loved Sam's bullshit. For example, he used letterhead that proclaimed, 'Sam Nunis, National Headquarters, Abe Lincoln Hotel, Reading PA.' He actually had a desk there, in the mezzanine… In reality, everything Sam owned was basically in his briefcase."
Chitwood & Nunis
That briefcase was missing after the first day of a two-day meet in Springfield MA. Nunis called out half the police department to search for the "thousands of dollars" from the first day's gate. Nunis left for another race at Allentown, leaving Economacki to recover the briefcase. The cops detained the most unsavory characters in town, racers Jimmy Bryan and Buzz Barton. The briefcase was recovered when a young couple reported that a hotel porter mixed it in with their luggage, but it contained no money. When Economacki phoned Nunis with the bad news, Sam revealed the gate receipts had been in his glove compartment the whole time. "… Now I have two very pissed-off detectives who have worked all night…"
"Give 'em a couple of tickets to the races." Of course, Nunis already had his headlines on the front page.
Muhlenburg KY Fairgrounds
Economacki contrasted JC Agajanian's boisterous and generous manner with Nunis' stingy habits. "Aggie… always carried a handful of race tickets… At the slightest interest expressed by anyone he encountered, out would come the tickets… Sam would probably not give a free ticket to Jesus Christ himself."
Nunis & Ted Horn
When WW2 ended, there were only two paved tracks in the US longer than a half-mile, Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the 5/8-mile oval at Thompson CT. There were thousands of dirt tracks at county fairs, and races were usually only one of the attractions at a weekend festival. Customers expected a bit of huckster, of "sizzle," from their promoters. NASCAR's superspeedways changed that. With time, fairground races moved to hundreds of purpose-built stadiums that sprang up in the '50s and '60s. Economacki remembered what life on the road was like, moving from one bullring to the next. "I was rooming with Sam in Cedar Rapids IA… Sam opened his suitcase and there, on top of his clothing, was a length of coiled up rope. 'Sam, what's that for?' I asked."
"'Well, if we don't make any money, I lower my suitcase out the window with the rope,' he said, matter of factly. 'Then, I walk out the front door, go around the corner, get my bag, and leave.'"
1949 NSCRA Champ Ed Samples
By the mid-'60s, Nunis seemed settled at the one mile paved Trenton Speedway, successfully filling seats for scheduled events with race fans, instead of fairgoers who'd never seen a professional race. He promoted races until 1973, when emphysema finally slowed him down.
"His wife, Dottie, got mad at him for dying when he did, because it was bad timing. She had been planning a grandiose funeral, but Sam died in late January, and the funeral was a day or two before the Daytona 500 and everybody in racing was in Florida for Daytona and couldn't come for the funeral."

The Social Network took home the top prize at the 61st annual American Cinema Editors' Eddie Awards.
Angus Wall and Kirk Baxter, editors of the film about Facebook, won in the dramatic feature category, while Alice in Wonderland's Chris Lebenzon nabbed the musical or comedy category. Ken Schretzmann and Lee Unkrich took the trophy in animated feature competition for Toy Story 3.

Gold mixed with blue at Saturday night's Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony. Though HBO's Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee took home the most kudos five statues in all several major wins either were born of or unexpectedly led to salty language.Where to start? Kathy Griffin, whose Life on the D-List won best (non-competition) reality program, mock-scoffed at those who thank J.C. for their good fortune by saying (and I apologize for sharing this on a Sunday morning), "Suck it, Jesus, this award is my god now." Also using salty slang in accepting her award was Elaine Stritch, named best guest actress in a comedy (for her turn on 30 Rock). "It's kind of obvious how long I've been in this profession," said Stritch. "And I can't get over that I still feel the way I do. It's unf--kingbelievable."Another veteran actress, Leslie Caron, was Stritch's counterpart in the drama race (for her appearance on Law & Order: SVU), while Stanley Tucci (Monk) and John Goodman (Studio 60) ...

Anna Paquin, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee
This Sunday at 9 pm/ET, HBO premieres Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, a wrenching adaptation of Dee Brown's history of the hardships the Indian nations suffered in late-19th-century America. In it, the quirkily charismatic Anna Paquin plays Elaine Goodale, the wife of a Dartmouth-educated Sioux (SVU's Adam Beach) who devotes her life to the tribe. The Oscar winner spoke with us about the film.
TV Guide: How would you describe Elaine? Paquin: She's strong and modern. Most people weren't interested in working with native populations at that time, but she spoke the language fluently and lived on the reservation. She knew the culture from the inside.

Thanks Alot,
It is from "inside" your network. 192.168... is a Class-C IP address, and is not routable. Check your local wireless security and encryption settings.
What is the IP address of LAN interface of your router ? Usually it is 192.168.1.1. But I guess in your case it is 192.168.100.1 and DHCP server is assigning 192.168.100.10 to you LAN machine.

Excellent, my favourate mascara!! My lashes stays curled, mascara did not transfer, and gave me a really 'natural' fake lash look. Loving it!
This is my go-to, everyday mascara. It stay puts and keeps my short, stubborn lashes long and curled for the whole day.
Even a shower and face cleaner can't budge this stuff. I remove this mascara at the end of the day with an oil-based remover (Lancome Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover).
The mascara wand is shaped nicely to catch every lash, and while the formula does contain fibres, application is clean. The desired effect on the lashes can vary depending on how much you apply. On some days I use only one very light coat which suffices to give my lashes natural lift and length, while steady building of coats can transform the lashes into a look that is very full and dramatic, especially as I am able to manoeuvre the brush to concentrate the product on my outer lashes very easily.
I will definitely be buying this again!
I am probably using my third heroine make mascara already. I have short and thin lashes, and when i try mascara with a heavy and/or wet texture (e.g. Lancome mascaras), even if i curled them with heat, my lashes would drop instantly once I put mascara on, become very straight and smudge within an hour? But this mascara is great! It doesn't have a heavy and/or wet texture, it is light, yet there is quite a lot of fiber. My lashes can hold up all day long if I curled them before I put heroine make mascara on, and it is the mascara had smudges the least on my eyes! I will keep using it until I find a better one - if possible at all!
I actually love this mascara! i have short straight lashes, this mascara holds up the curls. i love the length and volume it gives. It separates my lashes very well and doesn't clump. The brush is small and has a unique shape that makes it very easy to coat every lash from inner corners to out, and my "barely there" lower lashes. I bought this mascara online for about $15-$17. I don't know where to find it where i live (markham) i haven't checked asian malls yet, but if i do, i would definitely buy it again, even if i can't find it , i don't mind waiting for the online order to arrive.
- Gives amazing length
- Doesn't smudge a single bit even in the horrid humid weather in Singapore
- Lengthens very well and gives a little volume too
- Reasonably priced
- Difficult to remove (but this shouldn't be a problem if you use eye make-up removers such as Cleansing Express'. Not for people who want to finish cleansing in one step)
- Is a little drying and not recommended for daily use
This is the best mascara I've EVER used, and I've used literally hundreds in my quest to find the perfect nonirritating, super-waterproof, non-smearing lengthening affordable mascara. THIS IS IT!!! I am a big crier and with this on, I could be blasted in the face with a firehose while swimming through a tsunami and bawling my eyes out...this is not gonna budge. Shiny black and VERY lengthening...it adds a little volume, but not so much that my lashes look tangled & sticky like some volumizing formulas do. Some people complain that it's hard to remove, but isn't that the point??? If it was easy to remove, it wouldn't stay on like it does, duh. Use an eye makeup remover, like FANCL or DHC...Lancome Bifacil works quite well also. Like anything in life, you need the right tools to do the job well. I did knock 2 stars off for the packaging quality: the stopper on this seems to loosen up after a dozen uses & I suspect this is why it seems to dry out a bit quicker than I'd like it to. For the price and the quality, I deal with it. You can find it at many Japanese groceries or on Ebay, but I get mine from Adambeauty: he's got good prices & good shipping rates from Hong Kong, and his customer service is stellar: always get right back to me with answers on questions, and if he doesn't have something you want he'll do his best to get it.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I wanted to love this so much, because it made me look like I had falsies on. This is probably the number one thickening and lengthening mascara I've ever tried, and many japanese beauty product fans will attest to that too!
Unfortunately it refused to budge with all sorts of removers. Only the remover that it comes with, plus much coaxing, helped it come off. I'm very prone to milia seeds around my eyes, so I'm staying away from anything that requires me to use oil to remove it.
I found this mascara due to the great reviews here. I've been using this mascara for several months now and though I love it, I'm still searching for THE ONE. What I LOVE: It really lengthens and holds a curl. And no clumping either. What I don't like: This mascara smudges on me. If I apply in the AM, the smudging will start in the mid-afternoon. The smudging is minor but nonetheless, I have to keep checking and wipe it off. And as other reviewers have pointed out, this mascara is a pain to remove. But until I find a mascara that lengthens and curls like this one and doesn't smudge, I'll keep using it.
I purchased this mascara and the volume and curl version when I was in HK based on recommendations from MUA. I love both these mascaras, though I don't think they're very different. They are both very good at thickening and lengthening my short and sparse Asian lashes. They are also the best mascara I've used to hold a curl. I prefer the shape of this wand to the volume and curl version because this shape makes it easier to grab the lower lashes. However, I'm not sure if the curve on it makes it any better.
Some things I don't like about both of these mascaras:
- It can be a bit drying on your lashes. I only use this for a dramatic look, and not for everyday.
- It's hard to remove. I can get this off using a cleansing oil and a toner afterward, but it takes more effort than a typical mascara.
- The mascara can clump on the wand. I usually roll it around on a tissue before applying it so that the clumps don't transfer onto my lashes.
Despite these cons, this and volume and curl are the best mascaras I've tried, so be sure to check them out!
One of my favourite mascaras! (The other one is Majolica Majorca mascara). Both prices are about the same. I tried out the Kiss Me mascara because I find that MM's mascara clumps after it's used for some time. Was pleased with the effects, long and curl lashes :)

Relish Patties (also known as Freaky Clone Jelly Relish Patties) are rare Patties that only appear at the very end of the episode "Planet of the Jellyfish."
Relish Patties look like regular Krabby Patties, except they have the green goop from the Evil Alien Jellyfish Overlord that SpongeBob and Sandy defeated. Patrick came up with the idea after Mr. Krabs was thinking on what to do with the green slop, so Patrick then ate some of it and came up with the name. Mr. Krabs then sold them for four dollars more than a regular Krabby Patty. The Relish Patty might never have a different color other than green because of the goops' color.

As pets age they can suffer cognitive dysfunction. And though there will never come a time when pups or kitty forgets where he left his keys, he might withdraw from his family, become disoriented in his home, cry for no reason, or have sleeping problems. As with humans, the exact cause of cognitive dysfunction is unknown, though it is related to aging and changes in the brain. Sadly, there is no cure, and the problem is progressive. There are medications for dogs that can help, but so far no medication has been approved for cats.
Most people are familiar with terms like Alzheimer's disease or senility when it comes to humans. It should come as no surprise, then, that geriatric dogs and cats can develop a very similar condition known as cognitive dysfunction (CD).
Researchers are still trying to understand all the changes that occur in the brains of pets with CD, but studies have determined that deposits of a protein called beta-amyloid play a role. These deposits have an adverse affect on brain function. Interestingly, research on Alzheimer's disease in humans has reported similar findings.
The exact prevalence of CD in dogs and cats is not well documented. However, evidence suggests that the disease becomes more common as pets age. In one study, CD affected 47 percent of dogs ages 11 to 12 years old and 86 percent of dogs ages 15 to 16 years old.
Some of the subtle clinical signs of CD can be difficult to distinguish from regular signs of aging. These include things like slowing down and becoming less active. However, dogs and cats with CD also exhibit other signs, including:
Some pets can seem to not know family members and even exhibit aggressive behavior toward other pets or members of the household, as if they are strangers. Pet owners may also report that a pet has forgotten tricks, behaviors, and regular routines that were well established earlier in life.
Veterinarians typically begin the diagnostic process for CD by reviewing a pet's medical history. Valuable information can include the duration of the observed abnormalities, the severity of the problem, and whether the problem seems to be getting worse over time.
The most important aspect of diagnosing CD is to rule out other medical problems that can cause similar clinical signs. For example, an elderly cat that starts soiling outside the litterbox may have another illness such as a bladder infection, diabetes, thyroid disease, or kidney problem. All of these conditions can cause increased frequency of urination. Similarly, a cat that has arthritis may have difficulty getting into and out of the litterbox and therefore becomes reluctant to use it.
Senior pets can also begin to lose their vision and hearing, which may affect how they interact and respond to family members and which will often lead to an increased sense of disorientation. Your veterinarian may recommend a variety of diagnostic tests to rule out other medical issues before making a diagnosis of CD.
Preliminary tests may include the following:
Neurologists are sometimes tapped to help ascertain whether brain tumors or other central nervous system changes are afoot.
No known breed predisposition is reported for either dogs or cats.
Though there is no cure for CD, treatment may help improve the signs and slow the progression of the disease. Depending on the severity of the clinical signs, there are medications that can help dogs with CD, but there is currently no approved medication for cats with the condition. There is a diet that can help dogs with CD, and nutritional supplements may also help manage the problem in cats as well as dogs. Fatty acids, in particular omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, have been shown to have some effect on dogs who suffer cognitive decline.
There is no single medication that can help all pets with CD. However, it has been shown that exercise and routine mental stimulation can help slow the progression of CD. Regular exercise that is appropriate for an older pet, combined with environmental enrichment with toys and play, may help keep pets more alert as they age. Adhering to a strict schedule can also be helpful for some pets as it may help alleviate anxiety.
If the problem becomes too severe and issues such as house soiling, aggression, and immobility effect a poor quality of life, euthanasia can be a reasonable option to discuss. Veterinarians can be invaluable in helping families sort out these issues and come to terms with this end-of-life scenario.
There is no known means of prevention save keeping pets in excellent physical condition with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation as they head into their geriatric years.

Northrop Grumman, Areva to build US nuclear parts plantNorthrop Grumman Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) is an aerospace and defense conglomerate that is the result of the 1994 purchase of Grumman by Northrop. The company is the third largest defense contractor for the U.S. and French nuclear giant Areva said Thursday they have teamed up to manufacture nuclear reactor components in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America.

The joint venture, Areva Newport News Newport News, independent city (1990 pop. 170,045), SE Va., on the Virginia peninsula, at the mouth of the James River, off Hampton Roads, near Norfolk; inc. 1896. , with Areva as the majority owner, was forged to build a manufacturing and engineering facility that will make heavy components for Areva's third-generation US Evolutionary Power Reactor (EPR EPR Electron Paramagnetic Resonance

The announcement comes as US President George W. Bush's administration is promoting a resurgence in nuclear power to counter the country's dependence on foreign oil imports. The nuclear power option gained traction in the past year as high energy prices pressure the economy.
The partners in the venture are Areva Inc., the US arm of the French company, and Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding, a unit of Northrop that builds large nuclear and non-nuclear ships for the US Navy.
The companies said they would invest more than 360 million dollars in the facility and the project would create more than 500 jobs.
Construction on the facility was set to begin in early 2009.
"Areva intends to build one-third of all new reactors around the world and at least seven in the United States. Areva Newport News is a key step in our dual strategy to increase domestic content in the new nuclear power plants we build and to produce in the local currency," the chief executive of Areva, Anne Lauvergeon, said in the statement.

Pleasant Hill, Calif., was once home to a small farming community. The city was voted to be incorporated back in 1961 after Pleasant Hill had developed into a bedroom community during World War II. The city has put in a great deal of time, effort and money to redevelop the downtown area of Pleasant Hill. Today, residents living in Pleasant Hill apartments for rent enjoy the amenities the city has to offer. Officials acknowledge that the redevelopment of the once deteriorating city could not have been accomplished without the help and support of the Pleasant Hills community.
Pleasant Hill apartments for rent offer residents the opportunity to participate in festivals and events hosted by the city throughout the year. Summer Concerts at the Lake are a popular summer series where locals and visitors can gather together and enjoy live music and good food. The city also hosts a series of music performances known as the Downtown Plaza Concert Series every year from June until September.
Families and individuals can take their dogs for some exercise at the Paso Nogal Park. Other popular outdoor destinations for residents of Pleasant Hill apartments include the Pleasant Hill Aquatic Park, Pleasant Hill Park, Rodgers-Smith Park and, the city's prized gem, Brookwood Park.
There are several public transportation options available to residents of apartments in Pleasant Hill. The city is serviced by the commuter transportation for Contra Costa County. There are 11 bus routes available and three commuter train lines that connect residents between the AC transit area, County Connection and Tri Delta transit area.
Pleasant Hill apartments for rent are available throughout the City of Pleasant Hill City Council, which is in charge of affordable housing. The city council works with the Contra Costa County Housing Services to provide residents with tenant-landlord counseling, fair housing, legal advice and educational outreach programs.
AreaVibes reports the cost of living index for Pleasant Hill residents is 16.3 percent higher than the California state average and 52.6 percent greater than the national average. Residents of Pleasant Hill typically pay $3.82 for a gallon of gas, $4.98 for a cup of coffee and $8.00 for pizza, added the source.

Posts tagged: Election
Good morning, Netizens…
If you truly are curious about the political strife inside Iran, the ongoing battles between protesters and the factional government of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the riot police took to the streets once again yesterday and more bloodshed occurred. However, you might want to read the following piece in detail, http://www.alarabiya.net/articles/2009/06/21/76567.html as it tells of a covert attempt on the part of one of Iran's principal government leaders, Ayatollah Rafsanjani, to overthrow or possibly force the resignation of Iran's President Ahmadinejad.
This appears to be only the edge of the iceberg, as there are additional rumors circulating in various places on the Internet of a series of covert meetings between Rafsanjani and various other clerics to eliminate the position of Supreme Leader entirely. One source especially deserves close reading as it contains some rumors, and some facts: http://threatswatch.org/rapidrecon/2009/06/regime-change-iran-movement-se/
Thus far, nobody in authority has stepped forward to admit nor deny any of these allegations. However, given we have both major Iranian and several other web sites all stating this to be true, we can be relatively certain that major political unrest in Iran doesn't start in the streets, but may extend fully to engulf the top of Iran's government including the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khameini.
The election is ostensibly over, and perhaps for the moment Ahmadinejad has won, but it does appear that the battle for the hearts and souls of all of Iran is far from over. It may have just begun.
Good morning, Netizens…
(AP) Tehran, Iran
The only vote that matters in the Iran election was just cast, although it remains to be seen by those of us in the world whether that will actually end the contention unfolding in Iran. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said protests should cease and the opposition must pursue its complaints within the confines of the cleric-led ruling system.
He said protesters would be "held responsible for chaos if they didn't end" days of massive demonstrations. The unrest has posed the greatest challenge to the system since the 1979 Islamic Revolution that brought it to power.
Khamenei said official results showing a landslide for hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad were beyond question.
"There is 11 million votes difference, Khamenei said. "How one can rig 11 million votes?"
The Big Dog has just shown his teeth, and despite his promises that the highest electoral authority will pursue election complaints, the instability and political contention unfolding in Iran seems certain to continue. As for the question of how one could rig 11 million votes, the answer is simple: invent votes and voters. We have a history of that here in the States that is enviable.

Liv Warfield has burst onto the scene like a fireball from the sky – hitting the Jimmy Fallon Show, the Arsenio Hall Show and the Late Show with Letterman! That's a late show trifecta.
Musicians dream about a run like this.
Where did Liv Warfield come from? And where has she been? The powerhouse from Portland (Oregon) was discovered on YouTube by his Royal Purple Majesty…Prince. I first met her at a pre-show Prince press conference at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut in late-December 2013. Liv Warfield and 3rd Eye Girl perform with Prince and were fielding questions from the handful of press folk in the room. Then to close out the chat, they played a sneak peak preview of the new Liv Warfield video "Why Do You Lie?"...and I almost fell outta my chair!
From that moment on, I had become a certified believer in this incredible singer that has tinges of Chaka Khan, Tina Turner and Janis Joplin in her style. I mean, backed by the New Power Generation horns, a funky rhythm section and a screamin' guitarist named Ryan Waters – this group has it all! Everything and a bag of chips!
I had the opportunity of going to the Late Show taping featuring Liv Warfield on April 4, the day David Letterman announced he was retiring. (Thanks to Ron McGugins for the invite.) The performance was more than anybody expected – including Letterman and Paul Shaffer. Chants of praise and applause came from Letterman, Shaffer and the audience as they broke for commercial.
So after this tease, I had to get to the show two days later at the B.B. King Blues Club in NYC for the full performance by Liv Warfield and her army. The 42nd St. club stage was wall-to-wall with musicians. Ten horn players, bass, drums, keyboards, guitar, two incredible backup singers and Liv. I mean, it was sheer power! Thumping bass, pounding drums, bursts of brass, a screamin' guitar and we were off to the races!
Liv's stage presence is R&B bravado. A powerful woman (a high school track star with Olympic aspirations), Warfield moves like a lioness and sings with spirit-filled gospel passion. During this Big Apple performance she ripped through her new CD entitled "The Unexpected" (a song written by Prince himself.)
Warfield has been performing with Prince since 2009 and you could see she has learned well. She has opened for Al Green, B.B. King, Dave Matthews and, of course, Prince. Liv remains a current member of Prince's band, New Power Generation. She is described as Soul with a little bit of Rock and Roll. Originally from Peoria, Illinois, she moved out to Portland, Oregon for college and today calls New York her home. Her musical heroines: Nina Simone, Etta James, Tina Turner, Sade and Mary J. Blige. The result is a funky mix of R&B soul-style.
The B.B. King club performance was standing room only. New York came to see what she's got…and this young lady brought it. From her explosive national TV debut on Jimmy Fallon in January to her NYC return home on the Late Show with Letterman – Liv Warfield is well on her way. A star is born. To me, she represents the strongest performance artist to come along in two decades.

I have neither had the time nor the energy to write many reviews lately. Partly because I have been ill for a long time this autumn, partly because I have had way too much to do - but also due to the fact that I have been writing longer and longer reviews. I decided early on that I would not do that here at Sekventiellt, as I wanted to show you as much as possible of what's being published and my time is limited. But as usual I have a tendency to overdo things, and writing these reviews has become somewhat of an obstacle.
So, new resolve: shorter reviews, more often. And I'll start by giving you one new review every day until Christmas, making my pile of review copies visably smaller and hopefully giving you ideas as to what to give to your loved ones. OK? Well, here we go!
Title: Silhuetter
By: Anthology
Language: Swedish
142 pages, black & white
Myling Media, 2009
This anthology is the first published book from a new publisher, Myling Media. A "myling" is, and now I quote Wikipedia: "In Scandinavian folklore, Mylings are the phantasmal incarnations of the souls of unbaptized children that had been forced to roam the earth until they could persuade someone (or otherwise cause enough of a ruckus to make their wishes known) to bury them properly." This will give you an indication of the direction this new publisher is taking: Swedish horror comics.
Silhuetter (silhouettes) has entries of varied quality, of course. One of the most convincing (and making convincing horror comics is hard, since being scary without falling into the traps of being either just plain silly or overly dramatic, is tricky) is Lars Krantz, who really gives me a chill with his Bunkerfeber (Bunker Fever) about a soldier during WWI. Krantz commands both writing and drawing and executes them both beautifully together.
Another story that caught my attention was Oflyt (Unlucky) by Johannes Streith. Here the drawings are not as convincing, but the story kept me going and the ending was truly horrifying. There are others of course, but instead of naming more names I'll settle for saying that on the whole this was an interesting read. Not the best anthology I've read, but if you're into new Swedish comics and/or horror comics, give it a try and support this new publisher's endeavours.

News: New Swedish Comic Strips
Every year since the start of the school in 1999 we have had a collaboration between the Comic Art School of Malmö and Sydsvenska Dagbladet, the biggest newspaper in southern Sweden. The students attending the first year of the school gets to make brand new comic strips, which are sent in to a jury at the newspaper. Three of the comics are chosen and printed for one week each (six strips in total) in the comics section during December. This year's competetion has just been finished, the jury have had their say and the first strip is in today's paper, written and drawn by Catarina Batista (se the example above).
An article and an interview with the chosen three can be found here.

News: Record Breaking Manga sales
In Sweden, sales of Japanese comics, manga, is waning after a short boom since the early 21st century and the publishers seems to be competing with each other on who is able to cancel the most titles right now. In Japan, where the sales of the biggest selling comics magazines have also been waning the last ten years or so, the sales of the collected books - the tankoubons - is still on the rise, though. One Piece is by far the best selling comic in Japan right now and the latest collection, volume 56, has a record breaking first print-run of 2.85 million copies. Add to that the fact that the accumulated sales for One Piece in Japan is 176 million copies and it really doesn't sound like an industry in trouble.
Thanks to Axel Trumpfheller for the tip.

[Senatry] What MMO will you play next?
I prefer rogue-likes and non-MMO rpgs myself most of the time. Sryth and Kingdom of Loathing are old favorites and I recently checked out Trisphere. Games like Senatry hook me b/c they have a decent balance, but mainly because the people make it enjoyable, not because the game is enthralling. I spend as much time chatting as I do playing.
Having said that, similar to sciurus_hu, I have other things I want to do than just play games. I think I'm going to cut back on games in general and move on to creating more of my artwork.

Anshan Iron & Steel Group (ANSHZ), China's second-largest steelmaker, scrapped a plan to build its first factory in India because of "risk" concerns and is continuing with talks for a planned plant in the U.S.
"We see some risks after careful study of the project" in India, Chen Ming, vice chairman of listed unit Angang Steel Co., said in an interview after a press conference today in Hong Kong, without giving details. The parent is "still in talks for the U.S. steel project and, so far, no progress has been made," he said.
Anshan, based in Liaoning province, is facing hurdles in its global expansion effort as it grapples with overcapacity and a shortage of raw material at home. Its proposed plant in Amory, Mississippi, China's first steel project in the U.S., poses a national security risk because Anshan is controlled by the Chinese government, U.S lawmakers had said in a letter to Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner in July 2010.
Talks had been held on an Indian steel project with an annual capacity of as much as 3 million metric tons, Anshan said in an e-mailed response to Bloomberg questions on Oct. 13. The project would require an investment of about $2 billion and Anshan may also plan for a plant in an African country, the Financial Times reported then, citing Anshan President Zhang Xiaogang.
India Demand
India's steel ministry in November estimated the country's demand may grow at 9 percent per annum over the next five years. Global rivals ArcelorMittal (MT) and Posco, which have at least $32 billion of planned projects in India, have seen delays for years in securing approvals and land.
Anshan is diversifying its markets as domestic demand slows and raw-material costs remain high. China's major steelmakers incurred combined losses of 2.8 billion yuan ($445 million) in the first two months of this year, the official Xinhua News Agency reported today, citing the China Iron and Steel Association. Angang, the biggest Hong Kong-traded steelmaker, this week posted a second-half loss of 1.93 billion yuan.
Angang is in talks with Anshan Steel about shortening the pricing period for iron ore amid expectations the spot rates may fall 10 percent to 20 percent due to slowing demand, Chen said. The unit bought the raw material from its parent at a 5 percent discount to the average spot price in the previous six-month period, paying more than rivals at a time of declining ore prices. Angang is seeking to peg the rates to a monthly or quarterly basis, Chen said.
