The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Yingluck will embark on first oversea trip to ASEAN countries, a visit
would test her capability over foreign affairs and the government's
foreign policy direction toward the neighbouring countries. The trip to
Cambodia is no doubt notable, that both are signalling significantly
improved relation shifting from Democrats government. There are a number
of immediate issues between the two countries for a shifting direction,
including withdrawal of border troops, the forging of oil and gas
explorations that has been revoked by Democrats, as well as the verdict
of citizens, though both appeared to move fast of those processes in
light of the huge popularity of the new Thai government. The handle of
the process will still largely dependent on domestic situation and the
perception from opposition forces, but without necessarily going into
the root of the trouble of each issues or threat interests of those
oppositions, there's every reason to believe the border conflicts is over.
China/US/Pacific - week in review
China sent Vice FM Cui Tiankai to New Zealand for dialogue of annal
Pacific Island Forum (PIF). It committed greater involvement in the PIF
countries, and promised to contribute 400,000 dollars to the China-PIF
fund. China's involvement in the Pacific islands are not new trend, but
the expanded influence have caused concern from Canberra and Wellington,
which traditionally dominated pacific countries. Both countries have
voiced concern over China's influence. U.S for the first time sent a
number of officials attending PIF this year, likely a demonstration to
counter China's rising presence in the region, with wading influence
from its ally Australia. The South Pacific, previously regarded as
strategic backwater, is developing into a ground for power rivalries.
China - week in review
New CPI number is 6.2, slightly decreased from 6.5 and appeared to
suggest CPI has reached a peak. Still, food price remains high, and
concerns for CPI to go back up again in the next quarter remains not
over. But this does allow Beijing some breathing room following the
critical month of August, when inflationary pressure is exacerbating and
signs for a slowdown is immediate. Tightening policy is likely to
continue for the coming months, though the central government is
navigating policy tools to balance growth concerns. Latest move include
withdrawn 20 billion yuan from state-owned lenders in the fear Aug.
lending soars, and Beijing also indicates to reduce RRR for SMEs in some
regions as part of its effort to assist their growth. Nigeria announced
to use yuan as 10 percent of reserve currencies, following a nubbier of
Asia countries such as Philippines, Malaysia and Cambodia. This marks
another step for central government's RMB internationalization move, and
the current gradual appreciation of yuan could facilitate the move.
Political issue, two outspoken newspaper were taken over from
state-owned media to local government, a move widely seen as to reduce
direct criticism against local authority. The local government
repeatedly voiced displeasure of some outspoken media, which were also
repeatedly undertaken reshuffles. If the move is encouraged by the
central government, the localised control of media would be part of
continued media censorship leading up to 2012 transition.
China/Libya - week in review
A report suggest China has offered Gadhafi regime huge stockpiles of
arms, and that a head of NTC indicated it will freeze out countries
which failed to support the rebel. Xinhua article slammed attempt to
ruled out China from taking part in the reconstruction period, and
Beijing is still looking for possibility to return its huge investment
to Libya, and to use its cash to increase a foothold. China hasn't
recognised NTC, and it may have used assets freezing issue as a way for
a bargain. And NTC, with many western backs, shown it is willing to
raise leverage of China's previous position to add cost for the entrance.

Why don't users want to see adverts relating to products/services they might be interested in?
Even if the ad were relevant to my life, I can't spend my money on every damn product or service I see. I have to choose which ones to buy and which ones not to buy. At a certain point, I decide to be content with what I have, and become irritated with anything that tries to one-up my status. |

Why don't users want to see adverts relating to products/services they might be interested in?
Would you want to be asked to try out this-or-that product or service every time you went to read a book, or brush your teeth, or call a friend? I'll seek out retailers when I actually want to buy a specific thing I was already interested in. And then I'll complain when they don't sell the thing I want, or it's in a crappy package, or it has stupid redtape, because TAKE MY MONEY. |

WikiReader: Plan B of OpenMoko Realized
As OpenMoko CEO Sean Moss-Pultz was announcing his departure from the mobile phone project, he mentioned as an aside that we was indeed working on yet another project. His Plan B has now been completed.
In his Plan B message to the community in June, Moss-Pultz alluded to a possible WikiReader, a small touchscreen device with the entire Wikipedia on a mini-SD memory card. The WikiReader operates neither on a WLAN connection nor 3G. It is currently orderable at $99.
The WikiReader, branded as "Wikipedia in Your Pocket," is keen on making reading Wikipedia an entertainment factor. The device has three buttons, Search for searching, History lists the previous searches and Random calls up a randomly selected article. The device distinguishes itself by its particularly low power usage: the two AAA batteries should last a year under normal use, mainly because the b&w display requires no backlighting.
The lack of external connectivity provides users two alternatives. You can get an annual update subscription for $29 and have an updated Wikipedia sent twice a year on a mini-SD card. Or you can download the 4-8 GByte archives off the Web.
The technology behind WikiReader is similar to that of the offline Wikipedia of the OLPC project. The software eliminates all graphics, renders a highly compressed and indexed archive from the raw text, and unpacks just the text called up in the search. The source code is under GPLv3 and BSD licensing and download is available from Github. Documentation already includes a QuickStart guide for building your own WikiReader.
For $40 this might be the sort of thing that people would buy for each other as Christmas gifts. But $100 for a dedicated device?? I don't know of many people that would go for that. Just spend another $20 on a Nintendo DS and use DSWiki. Or another $60 will get you an iPod Touch. Ah well. I wish them luck! It's a shame they appear to have missed this year's shopping season.

Cas en Bas Holiday Apartments(3)
Didn't find what you're looking for?
View all 305 St Lucia Holiday villas & apartments or all 20415 Caribbean Holiday homes
Cas en Bas is a deep C-shaped bay on the northeastern side of St Lucia. Being on the Atlantic side of the island it benefits from the breezy trade winds yet the waters remain calm due to the offshore reef. The bay is particularly popular with kitesurfers. The area around the delightful Cas en Bas holiday villas offers beautiful beaches, hiking, golf and other watersports. The nearby Cotton Bay Village has plenty of local shopping and dining and Rodney Bay is ideal for dining out on Creole, French, Asian and continental cuisine.
The Kitesurfing School at Cas en Bas is a draw to this lovely area of St Lucia where the calm warm waters and constant trade winds provide the perfect conditions for windsurfing, sailing, swimming, jet skiing and other popular watersports. Further inland there are walking trails which hug the rocky, cactus-strewn coastline. Secret Beach and Donkey Beach, with its golden sands and volcanic cliffs, are easy to walk to and offer isolation apart from a few local fishermen. Another great way to explore the area is on horseback and the riding stables at Gros Inlet arrange rides for all levels of ability. Enjoy a beach picnic or combine a ride through the countryside with a swim and a ride along the beach. The local 18-hole golf course is just 10 minutes from your Cas en Bas holiday rental and the course benefits from some amazing sea views. Fishing is another popular activity and hiking in the rainforest past old sugar plantations and turtle sanctuaries is a great way to enjoy the scenic views.
Gros Inlet is deceptively quiet by day, but on Friday evening it comes to life with a huge street party. It offers a chance to let your hair down in an authentic St Lucian atmosphere with Caribbean music, dancing and food stalls. Marigot Bay is a well-known resort nearby where a small ferry carries passengers offshore to the beautiful Marigot Beach Club. Roseau is a lovely day out to see the banana plantations and visit the St Lucia Rum Distillery. The local church has some fine murals of the Black Madonna by local artist, Dunstan St Omer. The beach at Anse Lavoutte is a favourite spot for leatherback turtles to lay their eggs between March and July. Arrangements can be made with the turtle watches organized at Grande Anse to see these amazing creatures.
The Caribbean Islands are noted for their year-round tropical sunshine, and temperatures rarely stray from 29-31°C (84-88°F). From June to November the rainfall increases during the rainy season, but generally falls as short tropical afternoon showers.
Visitors to the holiday villas at Cas en Bas will fly into the main Hewanorra (UVF) International Airport which is at Vieux Fort, about 2 hours drive from Cas en Bas. For island-hopping, the regional airport is GFL Charles (SLU) Airport at Vigie which is just 30 minutes from Cas en Bas.

one of my favorite fragrances on my husband; this and victor and rolf spicebomb. I like things that smell a little different, i'm not really into the typical fresh smelling fragrances i prefer woody, musky, spicy fragrances. this is such a gorgeous sensual turn on type of smell.

I stumbled upon this "men's" fragrance in my local Marshalls store, in the clearance area. It was missing the box. So, I tentatively smelled it, and was intrigued. I sprayed a little on my wrist, and walked around the store with the bottle in my cart, while I went Christmas shopping. I loved it, but not as a "men's" fragrance, but as a scent for me!
I found it to be cozy, powdery, and very appropriate for my work place. It has some hard notes (the wood, moss, white pepper, vetiver), but also some soft notes (the mandarin, musk, tonka bean, nutmeg, and violet).
I love it, and I'm glad I took a chance on it!
This is sephora.com's description:
Touch For Men displays an initial freshness of hard-to-define notes: tender violets and tart mandarin blend subtly with invigorating waves of white pepper, softened by the smoothness of Virginia wood and oak moss. Like a strong, deep breath, the trail develops quietly into a sturdy, masculine alchemy of vetiver, white musk, and tonka bean.
Burberry Touch For Men asserts itself as an essence of life, a fragrance for rhythms or for silence, the vital accessory for a new outlook.
Artemisia, Violet Leaves, Mandarin Tree Leaves, White Pepper, Virginia Cedarwood, Nutmeg, Vetiver Roots, Tonka Bean, Skin Muse.
A 'wearable' fragrance that is welcoming, yet rich in contrasts.

This is my most favorite scent in the world! I bought my husband a sampler pack of Burberry frangrances and this was my favorite one (this is his second favorite one to Burberry The Beat). I bought the full size for him in Touch because it is so amazing. It is not too overpowering like some men's cologne but strong enough. Sometimes I wear it, too, because i love it so much. I want to smell Touch for Women and see how it compares but can never find it at stores.

Age: 30-35 Skin: Combination, Fair Hair: Black Eyes: Brown
My favorite scent for my boyfriend. I am very particular about scents, mainly because I was allergic to all perfumes/fragrances for years and years (allergies change over time supposedly). I am still sensitive to some scents, and even though I enjoy fresh scents, a lot of men's colognes overwhelm me. This is the only scent I do not get sick of smelling (I'm not gonna sniff it all day though). It is somewhat fresh but sensual and sexy. I do not know how to describe a scent like this or actually any scent, but this one just hits the spot. It is not too woodsy or too fresh, and definitely not generic. You gotta smell it for yourself but I truly think it is unique and really makes me want to cling to him.

I love this fragrance for men. I was looking for a cologne to give to my husband for his birthday and once I smelled this one, I couldn't get over it. I sprayed this on my wrist and couldn't stop sniffing it. I didn't purchase it immediately because I wanted to sample other fragrances before I settled for this one but at the end I knew this one was the one. I decided to get the large bottle because I knew I loved the smell of this and could never get enough of it. Plus, I love the fact that the smell doesn't disappear right off the bat. I can actually smell it on him when he is wearing it. Highly recommended.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Acne-prone, Fair-Medium, Warm Hair: Black, Wavy, Coarse Eyes: Brown
I loooove this scent on my boyfriend. I tested it on him in the stores and also heard really good things about it beforehand. I liked it on him so much that I bought him the biggest bottle from Ulta and I am so glad I did especially for the fall/winter season. It smells like a really luxurious, warm and cozy cashmere sweater. I just makes me want to hug him. I think its female perfume equivalent would be something like DKNY cashmere mist. It is rather subtle and my bf tells me he sprays on quite a bit and if I am wearing something strong it masks what he is wearing. But then I feel like its subtlety is quite nice, because it makes a good everyday scent and you don't have to worry about ever going overboard. I highly recommend this for the guys or for gals to get it for their guys.

This is the ONLY fragrance my husband wears. He has tried many different ones, but for some reason this is the only one that doesnt irritate me. Usually his colognes "change" on me...they start to smell like sweat or urine...or they start to give me a headache. This one is a keeper! He has been wearing it for about 3 years now...this smell is him.

i love emma stone. and even though zac efron started out as a douchey fag little disney kid, he's actually a good actor and has started to do some good movies. of course like all young actors, he still gets stupid roles too… but i actually stopped hating on him
really? haven't seen him in anything that had me thinking he was a good actor or anything… then again, i honestly can't remember the last time i saw him in anything.
believe i saw him and seth in a movie trailer recently, that looked kinda funny.

Item namesUse the following steps to view all items names that can be used with gimme code. Enter "developer 1" at the console window, then enter "entlist" to display a list of items and objects that can be used with the "Spawn indicated object" code. Some names include the following: |
Using the reticleWhen fighting enemies, notice the reticle. If it sights red, you can shoot safely. However, if it sights green or white, it indicates a hostage or a person that is on your side. Do not shoot; pass them and leave them alone. Some enemies can kill hostages if you are not careful. Do not worry about that, as you cannot save them all. |
Saving ammunitionUse your knife to collect more ammo for the other guns. By doing this, you can get full ammo for every gun you have. If you are using a flamethrower in the later levels, use a short burst to conserve fuel. Use the magnum when low on gas canisters for the flamethrower. The rocket launcher does serious damage. Use the primary fire button to fire a single shot. Shooting multiple times is a waste of rockets. You can use this gun on single armored foes or groups of enemies. |
Shoot multiple rocketsTo shoot several rockets with a rocket launcher, press M. |
Fly off the boardEnable the phantom code, then use the mouse to point up and go forward to fly out of the board. The screen will be all orange, but you will see the other boards and be able to enter them, but not play them. You can shoot in them, but there will not be any opponents. |
More moneyYou get more money for shooting enemies in the abdomen, head and throat. |
TrainingAs a beginner, play the training level to get tips. This will help when you go into the real missions. They are no guards with guns, and you can only shoot pictures of enemies. |
TanksAssault transports such as tanks will not actually harm you during any mission that features them. They do not target you with their machine guns, so do not waste sub machine gun rounds on them. Its better to leave them alone. |
Put dents in the airWhile in tutorial mode, go to the second target practice and shoot a pipe that appears to be cut in half. Shoot at the black shadow and you will put dents in the air, and not the pipe. |
Other item namesEnter one of the following item names with the gimme code to spawn the specified object: |
Enemies with flamethrowersBe wary of enemies with flamethrowers. They cause incredible damage to your armor. Shoot them with a heavy machine gun or a .44 Magnum. Watch the gray bar. Basically, your armor will deplete before the health bar starts to shrink when you are hit by enemies. |
Sergei Dekker strategies-Before encounteringSergei, collect everything, especially if you are low on heavy machine gun ammunition. Get ready for a massive fight. Shoot the enemies with the heavy machine gun. After killing them all, Dekker will appear. Use your heavy gun on him to kill him quicker. Ammunition boxes will appear and become collectable. |
Kill the instructor and librarianEnable the bigelbow code when in the tutorial. Use the first weapon that appears to kill the instructor. Do the same thing on the second level and kill the librarian. Note: Doing either of these will terminate the game, forcing you to restart your computer. |
Kill the hostageEnable the bigelbow code when in the tutorial, then kill him with the sniper rifle. Note: This will terminate the game and make a continuous sound. |
Cheat CodesStart the game with the +set console 1 command line parameter. Press ~ to display the console, then enter \cheats 1 to enable cheat mode. Activate the following cheats by entering the corresponding codes: |
Level NamesUse the following level names with the map code: |
Using the nightvision gogglesYou cannot shoot enemies in the dark as it is impossible to see them. Use your nightvision goggles to light up any enemies in your area. You can still use weapons. However, remember that the nightvison goggles have to be charged, or wait awhile before they charge up. |
Level Names (multi-player mode)Use the following level names with the map code: |

Photoshop, my wifeDID YOU KNOW? I use Photoshop to do my drawings? ITS TRUE! Im guessing people don't know about this because once a week I would have someone asking me ^^ well thats fine. Today I am gonna share with you lots my history with Photoshop, how we met, how we worked out our differences, how we bonded, and how we eventually took another step further. <3Me and Photoshop met some time in the 2003? (Its been 10 years already?!) She was introduced to me by my cousin. At first I didn't know what to do with her, I just started playing around with photos, like adding flames on my hair, going all nuts with filters, editing clothes off of my favourite celebrities (Yeahhh I did that. Don't judge mE! ;___; ). We got along quite well, I was surprised that I could just know a few tools and do something crazy with it! I think I was using Photoshop version 7 and being quite happy with all the tools and filters I got. It was a good startThen new versions started coming out and I moved on to a newer vers
I'M RY-MANITS A BIRD! ITS A PLANE! ITS... what the hell is that? And is that a flying llama next to the guy?Hi its me your somtimes friendly neighbourhood Ry-Man. Ok I've been playing Injustice: Dogs Among Us :I. And kinda in a superhero mood at the moment, especially after playing the story of Injustice.. and without spoiling too much, pretty much the story starts off with Superman being tricked into killing Lois and their unborn child, which in turn changed Superman into killing his enemies and eventually turning into an asshole. I like how it shows that even heroes can have a dark side to them. This got me thinking... what if I had super powers? Would I use it to help others or just benefit myself? Would I use it for good or evil? Will my believe be the same as most people in the world? Or different from everyone? (Which would in turn make me a villain). Am I asking myself too many questions and worry that I might one day turn into a crazy woman with 20 cats? HMMMMM I WONDER!BUT FIRST WE NE
I will not be subjected to criminal abuseIts time for another story, do you guys want a story? I will give you one. This one is about my early days in the work industry and how you should always becareful and know your legal rights before you head in, you do not want to be subjected to criminal abuse without knowing. This happened a few years back, straight out of Design College, when I was still an 'Amateur Graphic Designer' as they like to call me. So I was searching online for jobs and found one that requires a Graphic Designer with artistic skills who can create original characters as well as making little icons and graphics stuff. I was like HELL YEAH THATS ME, so I sent them my portfolio, back then it had really unprofessional messy drawings and then a few graphic design works and photography bullshit pieces that I threw in here and there to show my 'range', I didn't have a consistant style and I had no idea what people wanted to see lol. So the company saw my work and they told me to come in. I was really
Secret to Success: Draw with your balls outHappy new ears my brothers and sisters. I hope you had a good break, but now its time to get back to work! And Ry here has a pro tip for you, something I have kept to myself but I think you as an artist should know about and adapt this habit. Its actually not that complicated, you should just always Draw with your balls out.A wise man by the name of John Rambo once told us that we should 'Stay ballsy'. We should not let our fear overtake us, we should dive head in into obstacles and fight the demons without fear and without worries. Well I have taken that approach and incorporated it into my drawing, believe it or not I have never been confident about my artworks, even if it is something I spent 24 hours on I still have doubt whether its good enough to show or not, especially when it is for work and I know I am being judged on.. thats why it always takes so long for me to finish an art piece because I keep looking at it and try to fix stuff that probably no one would ever notic
Skipping School for VideogamesHi there Ryceballs, its story time again. So come over and sit on papa Ry's lap, this will be fun. I'm gonna be talking about how I used to skip school to go home and play videogames, I used to do this a lot. Now before I begin I just gota say.... kids DO NOT skip school, get those grades cos you'll need them in the future! My grades at school were terrible, for good reasons too.. like this whole truanting deal for one. Im REALLY lucky that I am still alive today I swear. SO DON'T FOLLOW WHAT I DID, Im bad influence ok. Got that? GOODYou know, the cool kids would skip school to bring their hot girlfriend home for some hardcore snogging. While kids like me would skip school, then go home to spend time rescuing Princess Zelda. My parents were really strict though, I was only allowed to play my 64 on the weekend and only an hour per weekday, I always wondered if they were actually Ganondorf's minions. Yo the princess needs to be saved wat r u doing?! What wins is that I liv

Happy Birthday Walt DisneyIf the Walt Disney is still alive today, it would be his 111th Birthday. So happen I am doing a Disney themed month. God damn isn't it amazing how we are celebrating his birthday even when the guy passed away some 50 years ago? I wish I would have that, and a statue of me holding Green Bear's hand, in Ry-Spirit Land where the magic never happens.Can you imagine if Walt Disney never lived, there would not be Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Disneyland, Little Mermaid, Lion King, Tron, Lilo and Stitch, Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Up, Pirates of the Caribbean, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Mulan, Aladdin, Snowwhite, Winnie the Pooh, Duck Tales, That's so Raven, Chip N Dale, Darkwing Duck, Wreck it Ralph, Hannah Montana, Gravity Falls and Kingdom Hearts may not be made. On the bright side we don't get Herbie Fully Loaded so its not all bad.. I would even go as far as to say that without Walt Disney, the world may have been a little bit more depressing. How many time has a Disney movie touched
If I lost an armMy good people of Deviantart. It is me again Chicken breasts mixed with vegetable poured with a delicious yet spicy Indian curry on Ryce, here with another thought provoking yet useless journal entry. What happened was earlier this week my tablet pen's been going crazy, because the nib on the tip of my tablet pen has worn off. I do use the tablet a lot.... Like every single day, so over time naturally you would need to replace the nib. But being me, I just always forget to buy it.. Every time the pen becomes non responsive I would smack it like a disobedient bitch until it works again. Well guess what.. it reached a point where I need to smack it once every minute. You wouldn't believe the pain I went through with the Valentine's day picture, what could've been a 3 hours artwork ended by being 6 hours. At the end the pen was finally dead, I could hardly see the nib anymore. By the way a nib is like a long plastic that acts as the tip of your pen ok...? I don't want you to think I am ta
Do you collect anything?I collect porn. Nah I joke, there's no need to because you can just stream them.. right awkward. I think it is in human nature to want to collect something right? For me I had many things I used to collect as a child and eventually gave up on.. this says a lot about me, I don't have a lot of patience probably?There was a point in my life when I collected different Australian 50 cents coins. I can't remember why exactly, but I had a habit of collecting them for some reason. Until I reached a point when I couldn't find different designs anymore.... actually there wasn't a lot. yeah bummer.Then I got into collecting empty toilet paper rolls, now THIS I really got into, because its little effort with great satisfaction, I used to keep them next to the toilet bowl too, like a whole stack of them. I was planning to collect as many as possible so I can one day build my own toilet paper roll castle. However one horrific day came when my parents threw all my hard earned treasure
On dA for 10 yearsI'm happy to have been here for this long.It doesn't feel that long - but in a few more years I'll have been on this site for half my life. Sheesh!I've improved so much having an audience to show work to, even if the point of the work wasn't an audience - just having a platform from which I could do anything at all has been really amazing for me over the years.And then... PMD-e... which has been a really tremendous learning experience for me (and others!), in so many ways. I don't want to turn this journal sappy or anything, but I've been lucky to have met so many people and have gotten the chance to help create a community with its ups and downs.And... speaking of such...I'll be making a journal later about the state of PMD-e right now - I know the updates have been sporadic, and this has been for a few reasons. I've been thinking about how to word things for a few days now, and I don't think I've quite gotten it yet.Anyway, for those of you who've been around since

The 'Givens' of Nuzlocke StorytellingAll right guys, I needed to make a new journal anyway and this is a topic I've thought about for a really long time. It's about stories and the assumptions we make in order to tell them. Get ready for a great big essay!I realize after rereading that this post might be taken as very accusatory... I am NOT out to discredit Nuzlocke storytelling as a whole, I'm out to explore the way we tell stories and the mechanisms we sometimes use to do that. The 'givens' I describe here are also called Acceptable Breaks from Reality. I don't think these mechanisms are at all 'wrong' just because they might have unfortunate implications attached, and besides, the unfortunate implications CAN be remedied or subverted with some critical thinking and plot prodding if the author really thinks it's necessary. I write about this so that authors can have a better awareness of possible weaknesses in their story, so they c

Art Book Submission Guide & FAQUpdate3: Please do not upload a preview into your gallery until you get a response that we have approved the image for the art book. Thank you!Update2: There seems to be some confusion about the intended audience of the art book. While we intend to donate all profits to a children's charity, the potential buyers for the art book are not children (in fact, they are you, deviants!). Thus, you do not have to tailor your art to cute/child-like themes, and we encourage people to challenge themselves to create a deep and moving piece (it doesn't have to be happy either). So please treat this as any other art book and make something you can be proud of! Update: Bleed margin should be about 3 mm on all sides (6 mm total), but you don't have to have it. Make sure the main characters in your image are not placed on the very edge of the canvas.~~~Theme: Life & the Animal Kingdom~~~Copyright Info

a moment to talk about art and copying styleswell maybe i'll sound elitest, but ive always been a fan of the idea; draw how you draw, dont look too closely at others work and dont worry too much about finding your "style". it comes on its own but if you're looking at others work too closely to learn you're only learning somebody elses path in the road of art and not your own I did look at others work to get inspired as i started out, but mostly i looked at photographs while i worked, not art. i was given a bit of advice like 8 years ago, and ive always held it pretty high up on things to remember, and i share it often.when you're learning how to draw/paint, you should look at LIFE. figure study classes if you can, photos if you cannot. in other words, paint a river by sitting next to it, not by looking at another artists painting of it.EDIT: yes there is something to learn and digest with looking at others works. but when you start your own art, put down theirs!learning how to draw by looking at other peoples work ends in s

Robin's Pants PSAAs you might know, my comic's protagonist is fairly androgynous--Professor Birch asks "are you a boy or a girl?" because he literally can't tell. (He then labels Robin a 'borl' and moves on without ever getting a real answer.) Unfortunately, Robin's ambiguous appearance has caused a lot of ignorant, bigoted attitudes to come crawling out of the woodwork. Please be warned that from now on, I will call you out if I find you leaving cissexist or transphobic comments or jokes on my comic. This really isn't a big deal... I'm not going to start publicly shaming anyone, I will just start pointing out any problematic comments that pop up instead of letting them 'slide'.Basically, if your joke boils down to, "having a nonstandard/hard-to-determine sex/gender is so abnormal and freaky, haha!" then I will call you on it. If your joke hinges on making fun of gender pronouns or using 'it' jokingly, then I will call you on it. If you talk about what sex/gender a person
Regarding Mike's DismissalHello everyone!This is an important topic, as there was some abuse going on that I did not know about at the time of writing this post, and at the time of Marl writing this post here. I recommend you read both of them if you have interacted with the member michael2021 - the one known as Mike - at all.Many, many, many members have stepped forward since then and shared their own similar experiences, in the form of being used for art or being berated or yelled at over awful and trivial things. Marl and I were unaware of these incidences - we thought that there were only a few occurrences of this, and I thought I had handled them all! I'm very disappointed and upset to learn that, no, there are a great deal of members who have been affected very negatively by his actions, and even driven off from the group.I want to stress t
About WitherlingsI get a few questions about these guys, just want to post a little something... I put some concept info up in the Witherlings gallery about the strains, background info, etc. You can also find this on the Witherlings blog (by clicking Info). A bit more about the project... it's a creative design project, I do it for fun and to grow as an artist. There is no end-goal or plan or money-making scheme or anything. I'm just letting it evolve organically, we'll see where it goes from here. I have a few people assisting me, so I am not looking for anymore official collaborators... however....... ...I allow (more like encourage) people to create their own Witherlings designs and concepts. I am starting a collection and hope to do features of the artwork if enough people try it. I want the project to be open to contributions and I welcome your cr

They're living alongside humanity; Unseen & untouchable for the living, a life in darkness & brutality.Umbras are nothing else than souls of passed away human beings, trapped in a strange, parallel universe or -how we refer to-: The Afterlife. The moment someone dies his or her soul is automatically transfered into this place and changes its form into a bizarre creature that resembles the strongest traits of the

Allopreening FeatureAllopreening is a behavior often seen in a mated pair of birds (allogrooming also occurs in mammal species most notably primates). Allopreening is the mutual preening of another birds feathers. Sometimes the preening will switch back and forth from bird to bird. This behavior can be performed to enhance feather maintenance (keeping feathers clean of parasites) or to strengthen social bonds. The receiver of the preening will often lower their head, fluff out their feathers and in general have an 'Awwmygawh that feels good' look on their face. Birds attached to humans will also preen their humans, either trying to preen their hair, beard, moustache, eyebrows...eyelashes... It's one of the most adorable bird behaviors I've ever seen (well, with the exception of a parrot trying to preen your eyelashes, that might hurt).So here is a feature of birds being adorable with each other!
Road of thornsErrors are part of the road embrace them, learn from them be stronger, dont skip them. To learn how to ride a bike learn to fall first. So you can land on your feet, then try hard and faster, with no more fear to fall.I dont believe in mentors, not all mentors are qualified to teach, they can misguide you sometimes. If you have a mentor it can turn you into his clone, i had seen tons of great artists that their technique wasnt good but they were more unique and after having mentor, their style lose uniqueness. Because be honest, we copy what we like, and usually we ask for mentors of people that style will enjoy the most.For example you go and learn to play guitar with Slash, you will master the guitar at rock, but you if you wanna learn country, Slash wont teach you that, your hands will have the skills but you will have to start country from zero, and country its your style.Sooner or later the technique of the mentor will consume you. Because errors are the things that
If Im born a girl, I would be sluttyWARNING: CONTAINS SEXUAL REFERENCES, stop reading if you are under 18. If you are over 18, I would prefer if you read with your pants down for the full experience.Above is a visual representation of what I will look like if I was born a girl. The answer is I would be a hot big boob sexy Asian chick. How did this thought came about? It started when my friend omuuu asked me today. "What do you think of your appearance?", and I was like "i think im decent enough to not scare people away, and look quite handsome from some angles and lighting". Then she asked "if you were the opposite gender, would you have changed in either aspect?" and that got me thinking. I actually stumble upon this thought a few times before, and in all scenario I always end up a slut. Let me explain.Did you know that if you are a girl, you get bonus face points? Like if you are born an ugly guy, you remain an ugly guy. However if you were born an ugly girl, you are still a girl and pe

Hackett's Cove is one of many tiny communities along Highway 33 in Nova Scotia, Canada. Hwy.33 forms a circular route from the city of Halifax, along the western shore of Chebucto Bay to many small villages such as Peggy's Cove, and then continues on up the eastern shore of St. Margaret's Bay and back to Highway 3 where one can go back to Halifax or turn left and go all along the south shore of the Province, a very scenic area.
This shot was taken in the evening when we were coming back from one of our many visits to Peggy's Cove.

It's January 5th, the shopping is done, the gifts are put away, and maybe you're wearing that sweater someone gave you for the holidays. We're all back at work, it's probably cold, unless you're in the southern hemisphere, and it's a bit of a bummer.

PITTSBURGH — Syracuse will have to chase a national championship without starting center Fab Melo, who has been declared ineligible for the NCAA tournament.
The university announced Tuesday that the 7-foot Brazilian, who did not travel with the team to Pittsburgh for the second- and third-round games, won't take part in the tournament due to an eligibility issue. The school did not elaborate.
Melo missed three games earlier this season — including one of the top-seeded Orange's two losses — because of an academic issue,
Midnight Madness no longer lives up to its name. Sure, some of college basketball's opening night celebrations are chances for crowds to go crazy indoors for the first time since Connecticut won the national championship in April.
The big difference is timing. Most of the campus events start well before midnight. Heck, almost all of them end before the local newscasts even begin.

text: If your car belongs on the Toyota recall list the number one thing that you should do is not to panic. You should immediately call your dealer or failing that the Toyota recall hotline, and figure out if your Toyota has the gas pedal defect. If so, remove the floor mats, and get to a dealer to get it replaced. If the accelerator sticks, put the car in neutral, pull over and shut off the engine. Remember, first and foremost, don't panic – it was only a portion of cars made at a particular factory that were affected.

Gay Marriage to be Allowed in New Jersey
NEW JERSEY (WKRC) -- Gay marriage is about to become legal in another state.
A court in New Jersey agrees to allow same-sex couples to marry beginning Monday.
The state's highest court upheld a decision by a lower-court judge despite a request from Governor Chris Christie to delay the weddings.
Christie wanted the delay while the state supreme court decides a broader question on whether gay marriage should be legal.
The court will hear arguments on that in January.

We are moving to our new home in a week, trying to clean rental as we leave. I ran the oven on self clean, and now I have a light brown stain in the plastic grille around the top of the oven door. Anyone ever experience this? What worked to remove it? |
Follow-Up Postings:
From what you described, it's probably burned, not a stain. Try using a Mr. Clean Eraser-it's slightly abrasive and may help. I have a self-cleaning oven I hate. It gets so hot during the cleaning process it gives off smoke/fumes. and once I made the mistake of leaving a cloth potholder on the stove during the cleaning cycle and it caught on fire. I prefer to use Easy Off cleaner to clean my oven. |

DA asking for community show of support at budget hearing
JEFFERSON COUNTY - Letter from DA Cory Crenshaw
I would appreciate your help in spreading the word around regarding my budget hearing in Commissioners Court on Tuesday, July 22, at 9:45. I think a packed room of supporters will show our county leaders that the community is proud of the work ...coming out of their DA's office and they want to see it continue.
As you are aware, my office is working diligently on a variety of new programs to make our community safer and hold those responsible who have abused the public's trust.
The DA's office proposed budget for 2014-2015 calls for an $840K increase over the previous budget which is almost 15%. Of that increase, $508K is mostly for 4 positions (2 new attorneys, a new forensic accountant and continued funding for a task force investigator). With benefits, the $508K increase becomes nearly $750K. The remaining increase in my budget (around $100K) is for new computers, court costs and minor equipment.
Not only are we working on several matters before the task force, but the state gave us an unfunded mandate with the Michael Morton Act. Compliance with this act requires significant increases in resources to be sure our discovery obligations are met. We need additional personnel and computers (most of our computers are from 2006 and are severely outdated). Other programs such as No Refusal to help deter drinking and driving, and the civil gang injunction will require resources as well. This is all in addition to prosecuting the 10,000 plus cases pending in the office.
Keep in mind that I am always looking for ways to save the county money and increase revenue from sources other than taxpayers. This can be achieved as a result of higher fines on criminal cases, increased efforts to seize assets of criminals, and helping to clear the backlog of criminal cases which significantly reduces costs.
The work we are doing is too important for public safety and to ensure that Jefferson County is a place people want to move to and raise a family. I certainly hope that the money we are investing in criminal justice issues today will come back to the county in the form of higher property values, more jobs and a justice system that people have restored their faith.
Finally, I am proud to report that Bob Wortham fully endorses the budget requests and will continue to build upon the positive changes made in the DA's office and clean up this community. He was invited by the commissioners to attend and will join me Tuesday in the budget hearing.

This writer is able to follow the trends within the Left-wing via the social media. Statistics show the conservative main stream of America has adopted the internet- and the social media to find, understand, and propagate current events without the influence of the liberal-leaning main stream media. Indeed, recently released Clinton Administration records show the fear of the internet's ability to confound the White House as it worked closely with mainstream media to control the news flowing to the American people. The Left has reciprocated by recruiting people to flood the social media outlets with retorts and to"get their message out". This writer has already outlined the dishonest postures the Left employs- indeed the Alinsky verbal contortions they use to avoid obvious truths and conclusions. This writer has developed a system to confound those tactics, the presumptuous posturing and the supercilious insults the left denigrates itself to falling back on when their tactics are confounded.
One can see the breakdown of the Left illustrated as it's policies are found to be more than ineffective- in fact destructive to the American fabric and economic system in the House of Representatives this week. On the issue of Immigration, Representative Tom Marino (R )of Pennsylvania was entering perspective on the record in preparation for a vote on an Immigration bill. Incidentally, a bill that passed the House and was avoided by the Senate by simply leaving town (a favorite ploy of Democrats). When Rep. Pelosi (D) of San Francisco, California heard the practical measure measures of the proposed legislation, she broke House rules and interrupted Rep. Marino and crossed the aisle to threaten him, then ultimately deemed him an "insignificant person" which as the reader knows; is a supercilious position since all House members Constitutionally are equal on the House floor. This writer predicts the emotional breakdown on the Left will continue as their trump-card (immigration) has failed to galvanize their base and mid-term elections loom close on the horizon. Indeed, the situation is in such disarray for them that the President tried to rally the troops by surprising the White House Press with a friendly visit (with peroxide grey in his hair) to get them to talk about "His Birthday" (narcissism exposed). The press was having none of it- they refused to be rallied. America has had enough celebrity President and the nation now wants a leader beyond Obama's pretty face and Valerie Jarrett's shadow Presidency. The desperation has reached the rank and file Progressive/Marxist and the reactions in the social media are a sight to behold.
The question remains: "How does the average American confound and circumvent the *Alinsky tactics of the Left. There are several steps.
1. Step One: Determine if their proposition is accurate.
Often, the proponents of an idea will augment the founding proposition to accommodate their conclusion. The nation saw that this week on the floor of the House when Representative Marino replied to Representative Pelosi that the Democrats did absolutely nothing to protect the borders when they had super-majorities. "Yes, it is true. I did the research on it," Marino added. "You might want to try it. You might want to try it, Madam Leader. Do the research on it. Do the research. I did it. That's one thing you don't do." When challenged on the facts, Ms. Pelosi lost her cool, violated decorum, and tried to physically intimidate Representative Marino with her wagging finger. Step one is to understand and confront the Left with the actual facts- in context, without spin. The truth cannot be refuted. Which leads to the next step.
Step Two: Only proffer the truth- the facts: not spin, but FACT.
The Left, for all their dishonesty requires absolute honesty from anyone with the audacity to disagree with them. This is an advantage for the Right since that's the realm in which they by and large operate. An example would be the Lefts retort to Congressman Marino "Technically the Democrats didn't have a super-majority since Al Franken had not yet been seated". The point is moot, but it gives them another issue to divert to in avoidance of the fact that Democrats had the nation in a choke hold with no process for rebuttal by the Republicans. The retort didn't bear scrutiny by rephrasing the assertion: "The Democrats had the Leadership in Washington with no real opportunity by Republicans to influence the legislative process." This is a truth that can't be refuted because it removes "wiggle room" for the Left to focus upon. Which leads to the next step.
Step Three: Remain calm and accurate.
One of the Alinsky tactics of the Left is to divert focus of a factual truth by angering a debate opponent- then focusing on the anger of the "crazy right-winger". We see this often by accusation of racism, bigotry, xenophobia, "angry", and/or fascism. These are attempts to personalize the subject at hand and diminish the conservatives standing by casting that conservative with baggage that can't be proved. Completely remove the accusation with a brief explanation that you are focused on the facts, and turn the responsibility around on the Left-winger with factual assertions. "We aren't discussing that issue at this point, but: "Facism is a form of Marxism, and the Progressive movement is in an active partnership with American Marxist" Another would be "To falsely accuse someone of bigotry/xenophobia/racism. etcetera is to exercise said bigotry/xenophobia/racism etcetera but we're talking about…then restate your original proposition" If the conservative can't type without issuing an insult, walk away from the keyboard until you can. The time away allows you to regain your factual mind-set with the added bonus of throwing your debate opponent off of their rhythm. This tactic doesn't work for the Left since theirissues usually don't bear the scrutiny of truth; and depends on causing you to look unreasonable. Stay calm.
Step Four: Piece your information in small bites
Don't offer a complete dissertation on an issue. Formulate a methodical, factual presentation without burying too many facts in one post. The facts lose their effectiveness when bundled together in one shot. Think as if you are developing a "case" in a court of law: presenting a series of pieces of information to guide a jury to see the facts: the truth lies with your proposition. If the Left finds a mistake, acknowledge it, and move forward quickly. This gives you credibility in that you are more interested in the truth rather than political posture. "I acknowledege that Al Franken wasn't yet seated, but the Democrats had working control of the nation none the less. The Republicans had no reasonable influence on the legislative process." You acknowledge the point, but continued to present your facts in a methodical manner. When the Left becomes bellicose, acknowledge that their supercilious posture doesn't change the factual presentation, (incidentally, the Left hasn't developed a retort for being identified as supercilious: and the term is accurate in identifying their posture). Which leads to the next step.
Step Five: Require the Left to document their assertions with mainstream credentialed sources.
This is the opportunity to have some fun. The Left is big on "credible sources" when requiring those who oppose them to "prove their point". While they will insult Fox News, they are willing to sight CNN, The New York Times, or a network news agency. Put them on the defensive by documenting the unreliability of their news source. "Didn't CNN carry the fake story that Obamacare didn't have death panels and the average American can "keep their insurance if they like it? Yes they did, then provide a link of that organization proffering inaccurate information. This will send them into a tirade about Fox News, Breitbart , and/or Drudge Report: the answer being "we're not really talking about news sources, I just want you to source information for your assertion with a reliable source."
Step Six: Hold them responsible.
The left-wing has been "The Sheriff in Town" since January 2007. Their policies have failed on multiple fronts. From the economy, (financial growth is occurring primarily in conservative states with liberal states still bleeding cash flow.) to immigration, (sans the breakdown of Nancy Pelosi), to National Security, to International Relations, to creating racial divides within the nation. When they try to "share the blame, you retort with "But Obama said he could work in that environment and change things. He's even failed there."
Be ready to be bombarded with gangs of Leftist asking you multiple divisive and diverting question. Don't answer them. The retort is "I don't play 20 questions, if you have a point just make it." Then document your assertion free of their misleading questions. These are the tactics that cause the Left to face their failures, and to do so with facts and truth.
Finally: Understand that these tactics will not change the mind of the Left-wing debate opponent, or the committed Progressive.
They know their positions don't bear scrutiny (which is why they employ Alinsky-type tactics). The purpose of any public debate is to sway the audience with the facts and truth. Rarely will you get acknowledgement of your success, but the fact that the Left is flooding the social media indicates the success of the factual arguments- the points the Clinton Administration feared because it circumvented the joint-efforts of the Administration and the "Main Stream Media".
Now enjoy yourself like you watch a snake wriggle after its head is remove.

We're narrowing down our stove choices and are looking at the DCS RGU305 (LP) version. Very nice stove, good knobs, quality all around. I'm more into the look and solidness of a stove even though my wife does most of the cooking. With that, my wife isn't particular and has left the stove choice up to me. We just saw an LG (LDG3016ST) which obviously is in a whole different league, but has duel ovens, decent features and is only $1350. The DCS is $3749. My wife does favor the DCS more, understanding that it is a far superior stove in terms of quality, but as long as a stove does what it should, she really doesn't care. We will be using LP for gas and the LG has lower powered burners all around, so we'll take more of a hit on those burners than the DCS. In any case, the reviews on the LG are very good. The DCS are few, but decent. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I just thought i would comment on LG Products. We bought a washer and dryer set for $3000 5 years ago and have had nothing but problems. We have had them repaired many times. There customer service is terrible and they dont honor the warranty. Just recently my dryer started thumping and now the barrel inside has a huge ripe in the drum. After doing some research many people have had issue with the whole product line.I hope this helps.Do the reviews on the product and the LG line. |
If you haven't already seen this on another thread, it may be of some help. |
Here is a link that might be useful: LG Range complaints
Thanks for the link. I had read about the LG knob issues, but didn't think it was that bad. I understand you only usually hear more about the bad complaints then the good, but this seems like a recurring theme, so why take the risk. |
