Pocket City ExplainedHello its Ryce Cooker here with something a bit unusual. I usually don't like to explain my artworks because I like to see how people sees them, I believe if I have to explain what is happening in my artwork, then I didn't do a good job, I would prefer if they just see it and gets it. But once in a while I like to break tradition LOL! So this time I feel like explaining the many things that are not too obvious in my latest doodle piece. Pocket City! Main reason being I added a few trivias and homages in there thats really only relevant to me but you might also be interested in (Or bored as hell after reading). So yeah you been warned brother!1. Rice Ball: You notice Red eating a rice ball, this is a nod to two things. First the occasional rice ball you see in the anime in which Brock calls it a Donut (WTF). And also a reference to my new nickname lately, I have been called many things but lately its
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
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
What do you think about to make you sleep?Hi its me Sweet and Sour Pork with Ryce again. Lately I have been having sleep deprivation, it totally sucks donkey balls. I have this problem where it can take me 5 minutes to up to 2 hours to fall asleep depending on whats happening. Eg if there is a convention on the next day then it can take me a whole freakin hour to fall asleep because I am too excited/nervous about it!So what do I think about to make me sleep I hear you asking. Well it likes to go on an Adventure! I always think about storyline for my OC when trying to sleep though, and no its not adventures about me and Green Bear or Rybot or whatever, they are more like original characters that I never showed to anyone online, I like to keep it private incase I do make a comic about it then it can be like a mega surprise for everyone (If the comic ever gets done). And thinking about the storyline always put me to sleep.. might be a sign that the storyline is boring as f*ck... argh! For the last few months it has been a story
Dear WatchersDear Watchers:icononigirilaplz:Hello it is I Captain Ryceball with an egg on top. I don't think I have ever spoken to you directly before watchers, well hi my name is Ry nice to meet you, I'm an alcoholic. No wait I'm not. Hi. OK this is more like a THANK YOU journal more than anything.

Disney needs to stop making kids cryThats a picture of me coming out of the cinema after watching Toy Story 3. And you know what? I don't want people seeing my watery face ;__;" its embarrassing. I am so sick and tired of these Disney films making me embarrassed in front of everybody! You would think alright I am gonna watch an Disney animated film, its gonna be full of kids in the cinema, its gonna be a relaxing movie, it will be filled with jokes and funny characters, its gonna be all fun and games, I am gonna come out of the cinema with a big smile on my face. THEN WHY THE F*CK DID I COME OUT OF THE CINEMA LIKE I JUST WENT TO MY DAD'S FUNERAL?! >:'UAnd I swear I don't tear up in movies that try desperately to tear you up, examples being The Notebook, I hated that movie so much. There is no reason to show the couple all old and wrinkly what so ever, like many romantic film they should've just ended it when the couple was most in love, there, credits, end of movie, but no this movie likes to show when the couple are bo
I saved my friend with a KFC bucketYo guys, it's Sweet and Sour Pork with Ryce poured with some random sauce on the side. You know when you have dreams or flashbacks of your childhood past sometimes and think "oh God why was I so stupid"... that's what happened to me yesterday, after my dog left me a lovely present on my bed. A huge wave of nostalgia rushed over me after that crap.Anyway, Uncle Ry has an embarrassing story to share, since it was basically the start of my really cool badboy senpai image.This was me as a kid:As you can see, I still have that charming smile even now. Just look at dem eyes. I was definitely the senpai of all my girl classmates.Ok guys, no need to stare for too long, I know I'm good looking but we gotta get to the point ok? :'I You know those kids in movies where some freak accident happens and they are always the hero? Yeah well I was that kid one time, and that was the start of my super cool badboy senpai career. I remember when I was 5 and about to start my first day at school in Grad
Top 10 childhood Fictional Girls LoveThis is another very naughty journal entry, so if you are under the age of 18, please leave this page right now! No, in fact turn off your computer and go out for a walk! Its good for you! Right, here goes. When I was young, before I had the courage to talk to real girls, I used to have crushes on fictional girls that appear in games and anime...... Don't judge me. Ok here's the top 10 fictional girls I used to like.Number 10: Sakura from Street FighterI used to play this game called Capcom vs SNK on my Dreamcast and one of the character is Sakura, her cuteness and tomboyish look caught my attention. I remember there's certain moves you can do like Jump+kick or Standing+Roundhouse that allows you to view her red panties. Those were the days huh? I still don't get why I was interesting in seeing her panties back then, I should've known better that without them is the way to go.Number 9: Android 18I grew up watching Dragonball Z. When the Cell story lines kicked in I couldn't help bu
Back from Brisnova, Adelaidenova, PurpleKecleonovaSorry this is a bit late, but I have a report to give. On my trip at Brisbane and Adelaide Supanova. It was a good 2 weeks, met lots of people and ate lots of delicious food and just a very good time. Oh also the title is misleading I know, I only attended 2 cons. PurpleKecleonova is not a con, but she might as well be one cos she's so awesome. And yes it was lovely meeting purplekecleon in person, she gave me one of the best suggestion of the year ever, increase my price :I and so I did, cos when a Pokemon Goddess tells you to do something, you do it. And that has been the best decision I made. It was also good to see my Bulba friends again, owner of Bulbapedia Liam Pomfret and his lovely wife and a good friend of mine alexandrasalas. Also saw Mamath again, shes the one who suggested I get a Wacom Cintiq, which I did and yes it did help with my drawing speed. Also met coloursupply who was gonna do a dev meet but we ended up doing a small dinner gathering instead, she als
Birthday Aftermath (with 4 photos!)Thanks tons people for all the happy birthdays. I didn't reply everyone but I read everyone of them I swear, and took it to the heart, I think at one point a manly tear even rolled down my cheek. And big thanks to those who were kind enough to draw me a birthday picture, I have posted them all on my facebook for all to see, a lot of pikachu with top hats I saw! So what did I actually do on the day, the initial plan was just stay at home and draw... as I have a lot of work to do. I havent celebrated a birthday probably since my 21st 5 years ago really, and I don't like to tell people its my birthday until after, I like seeing that guilty look on their faces. So that was my plan, but then I get a surprise visit from my Bulba folks from Brisbane on the day of my birthday! I told them it was ok, you don't need to travel all the way down to Sydney just to celebrate my birthday, I then realise it was because they needed to come down to sort out some passport things, nothing to do with me. :I

Ry's World Domination Art Sale 2013Howdy its me again, before I start, if you wanna skip my life story and to the selling info then just scroll down till you hit the Information Section. You know.. somtimes I get people asking if they can buy prints of my artworks that I sell in conventions. I usually tell them to give me their address and info and sell it to them secretly, without really telling it publicly that I do. A few reasons why I don't like to sell internationally is firstly its a pain in the butt to drive out to the print shop and get it printed (Somtimes it takes a day or two for the print to be ready because they are sometimes busy), then buying a mailing tube and writing the address on it, then driving out to the nearest post office and post it. Then of course there is the shipping cost that you the customer has to pay for as well, I am sorry but its how the world works . The whole process does take a bit of time and in small amounts I think I can handle it, but when it comes to a lot of people wan
fear and struggles"if you're making mistakes, it means you're out there doing something" -Neil Gaimangetting inactive again lately because besides work and my current addiction of playing , I've been spending my free time with alot of traditional sketches and scribbles! and when I don't draw anything I do ponder..ALOT. forgive me if this seems long and disjointed.I pretty much read nicholaskole's journal about art fear a while back and I realized I've gotten too used to the digital medium, which my self-confidence and skill in drawing using pencil reach down to zero. Digital has become my comfort zone, anything I produced was not in par as my digital works so I just stopped trying at all. I definitely don't think there's anything wrong with keeping something you're used to, but at times when I feel like I don't feel as challenged as before it comes to the point where suddenly it demotivates me to draw.Always put off trying again, my papers and paint were gathering dust and ants.. thinki

A Personal CauseSince it's inception in 2002, I have participated in the Weekend to End Women's Cancers. This event involves a 60km trek and a personal fundraising minimum of $2,000. Over the last 10 years I have been involved, I have raised over 50,000 and it's never been easy. The last couple of years have been particularly difficult because, let's be honest, there are a bunch of causes to support and only so much money to go around. I completely appreciate that there are numerous causes banging on your door, however, I will plead my case! Over the years there are certainly numerous causes that have come to my attention and, like you, I have a limited budget. My cause is pretty simple - it's Cancer. In my lifetime I have lost family members and it's tried to take my mother, twice. I witnessed my grandmother's fight first hand and I can't express the helplessness one feels when y
Happy Birthday Moonbeam13!Hello allToday marks a very special day for someone, and since this someone is our wonderful team leader, $Moonbeam13, we wanted to write a journal to say... HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIE!Now a lot of you know Danie as the big chief of the Community Relations team, but I doubt half of you truly know how much of a hard worker Danie is. Not only does she have to look after us lively lot (and by "lot" have you seen how big the CV team is?!), but she works on copious behind the scenes projects on deviantART, making this place just a little bit more devious and better for all us Artists out there in the big dA community. Not only this, but she has to have a life at the same time!Now we have decided to use Danie's birthday for three things:1. To wish her a very happy birthday (of course)2.
Birthday Scuzzle! BREAKING NEWS! Something terrible has happened!Some naughty mudkips invaded dA and stole a very important photograph. The stunning photo was a gift for all of you to celebrate deviantART's 11th birthday.

Moonbeam13 is currently searching her spellbook to find a way to bring the image back.Stay tuned for further updates. A full report will be issued on the 3rd August.What is a Scuzzle?A Scuzzle is a combination of a Scavenger Hunt and a Jigsaw Puzzle. There will be lots of missing pieces of this Scuzzle ready for you to find. Although there are some subtle clues to help you along your way, you will need to search high and low for them! Come back on the 3rd August for the hunt to begin!

Sorry to bother you...Hello all,I thought I'd take a moment today to write a journal which is probably long overdue. I believe there is a common misconception floating around that CVs are so busy, that when you send us DD Suggestions, or other messages, you are being a bother. Quite regularly the DD Suggestions I receive start with something along the lines of "I am sorry to bother you..." or "I know you are busy but.." I'd like to assure you all that no suggestions you send, or any other type of contact made with me (or any other CV for that matter) is something to feel sorry or bad about (unless you are legitimately harassing us or something). I've often heard community members talk about how many notes CVs get daily (often this number appears to be near 100) and I feel the need to say that this is very far from the truth. On average I receive maybe 5 notes a day. On a slow day I may not get any at all and on a busy day I may get up to 10. While I can not speak

The Assumptions of TheftOne of the biggest issues facing creative minds in the age of the internet is that of theftof art, of ideas, of design work, even of code.When we creative types come upon an instance where our work or the work of friends has been repurposed/stolen/ripped, we naturally are upset. We rally our fellow artists to build an army of good against those who would steal that which we painstakingly created from scratch. We send emails, tweets, facebook posts, blog posts, journal posts, and even send snail mail in an attempt to discourage the thieves. We will insult them, threaten them with lawsuits, and make their lives so difficult that they will naturally have no choice but to take down the stolen work.I have also had my work stolen in many ways. Logos I have created have appeared on websites where the thieves are attempting to actually re-sell the work, artwork I've made has appeared on other websites as both decoration and downloadable/purchasable products, and in one instance some of
Supanova Brisbane 2012 AftermathSups fellas, I was at Brisbane's Supanova this weekend. Lucky I didn't catch the wrong plane or wrong bus or wrong train, at the end everything worked out great, Brisbane's transport is surprisingly very easy to navigate and comfortable to get around. The people are nice there too, I always have a good time in the Queensland state. So this time I got to share my table with :iconkasumicr: and our table is part of Bulbagarden table with Liam Pomfret aka Archaic the webmaster being there. On the table was also :iconfoxeaf:, her boyfriend and a guy called Ben :iconnewklear:, later Ben's friend James also joined us. I didn't find out until later that John Dimaggio the voice actor for Jake the dog was there too... well I didn't have time to get him to sign my stuff, but its fine cos he will be in other Supanovas too and so I know I will see him again. So my next store neighbour this time is the lovely :iconthiskidthatkid:, I thought she was local but found out that she was also from Sydney,

AHMEDABAD: Gujarat has turned green, at least on the monsoon map of the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The colour green here means Gujarat has achieved the normal status in rainfall.
Till August 8, Gujarat was marked in deficit-rainfall status which is highlighted by IMD with the colour red on the map.
Of the 26 districts in the state, only five districts have not received adequate rainfall. These districts include Dahod, Kheda, Navsari, Tapi and Bharuch.
The state has so far received 62.79 per cent of the annual average rainfall of 914 mm. State revenue officials said that of the 225 talukas in the state, there are still 17 talukas which have received rains less than 40 per cent.
Officials said that the taluka with lowest rainfall was Quant in Vadodara district.
This taluka has received just 203 mm of rainfall against its annual rainfall of over 1,100 mm.
Revenue officials said north Gujarat, which was lagging behind in rains in the last fortnight, has become the region with the highest rainfall, having received 72 per cent of its annual average of 756 mm.
What is encouraging is that out of 225 talukas, there are just seven talukas which have seen less than 250 mm of rains.
Officials said the low percentage of rains was mainly because these regions have high annual average of rainfall. He said only two talukas in the state have received less than 200 mm of rains.
These two include Lakhpat in Kutch, with 101 mm of rainfall while Abdasa has received 135 mm of rains.
Revenue officials said that of the 26 districts, four have received over 80 per cent of annual average rains. These include Patan (87 per cent), Rajkot (84 per cent), Surendranagar (81 per cent) and Sabarkantha (80 per cent).
However, less rain activity is expected in the state in the next two to three days as there is no definite system. Director of India Meteorological Department (IMD), Gujarat, Kamaljit Ray said that rains are expected after August 27 as there is some activity in the Bay of Bengal, which is likely to develop into a system in the coming three to four days.
Only light rains are expected in the state, while there may be some moderate rains in south Gujarat. IMD officials said that the Gujarat region on Tuesday should have received around 669 mm of rainfall, but this region has received 612.4 mm, which was eight per cent below normal.
The Saurashtra-Kutch region normally received 364.3 mm of rains but this region has received 417.3 mm of rains. This was 15 per cent above normal.

The man who led police on a chase through Phoenix July 27 isn't yet facing murder charges for the death of four newsmen killed when two helicopters following the chase collided, according to authorities.
A grand jury indicted Christopher Jermaine Jones, 23, on 12 charges Tuesday including four counts of aggravated assault.
Since the crash, police said Jones could be held responsible for the deaths. But prosecutors will not determine additional charges until police and aviation officials complete their investigation of the crash.

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
JL power. Great amp. I have this powering a 12W6V2 in a sealed custom enclosure. This amp does what an amp should. Reproduces the signal it receives & stays out of the way. Went from a 250/1 to this. I gotta say though I felt that the 250/1 was probably giving out around 300 watts rms but my ears feel that the 500/1 is giving out right at 500 watts rms. Did I measure this? No. Just a thought. Interestingly enough I have the gain set to a similar position as I did on the 250/1 but the 500/1 runs hotter. I know that if you're reading this & you have an electrical engineering background the answer is simple but I don't have one besides the fact that more energy is being used to produce the extra 250 watts rms thus creating more heat. By the way this amp has all of the features of the 250/1 plus a connection for an optional bass control switch. Sound quality is the same as the 250/1 plus of course you get extra power. Clean, powerful bass is what you get. Read my review on the 250/1 for more on sound quality.

How Employers are Using Social Media in Background Checks
Whether it's the teacher who was fired for her MySpace profile or the woman that lost her sick leave benefits over a Facebook photo, there are numerous documented cases of social media affecting people's professional lives. But did you know that inappropriate social networking can cause problems before you even start your career?
More and more, hiring managers are turning to social media to scope out job applicants. According to Microsoft research, 79% of U.S. hiring managers have admitted to using the Web to look up information about applicants, with an astonishing 70% admitting to rejecting a client based on negative content.
Some people think that looking up social media profiles of job applicants is unfair and tantamount to peeking through their windows. There may be some truth to that argument, but it's not likely to change anything. The undeniable reality of living in the internet age is that the things we do online will have an impact in our offline lives.
As further proof of this new reality, the FTC recently approved a new background check company called Social Intelligence. Unlike other background check companies, which look up credit scores and other similar data, Social Intelligence specializes in scraping information from an individual's social media profiles. Social Intelligence then analyzes the data, flagging certain content as objectionable (primarily racist, sexist, or violent content).
There are limited advantages to Social Intelligence. For one, the company currently uses human agents to filter the content. This helps prevent individuals from being flagged for content that is taken out of context. Also, as in a regular background check, individuals must first agree to the report. If they are rejected based on something found in the check, they have a right to see what the objectionable content was.
However, despite its positive attributes, Social Intelligence portends an ominous future. Imagine what would happen if mandatory social media screenings became a standard part of the hiring process. What if machines, instead of humans, began processing these reports? As Reputation.com CEO Michael Fertik wondered during a recent segment with Fox & Friends, would you trust a computer to make the right judgment about your professional reputation?
Although the company will do a new scan every time a company requests your data, by law, Social Intelligence can store data on an individual for up to seven years. In other words, if you do something stupid on your Facebook profile now, it might come back to hurt you seven years down the road. Parents, particular parents of new college graduates, should remind their children of this fact and encourage them to be responsible about how they use social media.
As one of the first generations to grow up with the internet, modern teenagers are incredibly tech savvy. But, that doesn't mean they have the ability to think about the long-term consequences of their online actions. Help your children understand that what they share online is like a digital tattoo. They might like it now, but will they like it in seven years when they're trying to find a job?

Rufus Harris
For years, husband and wife team Rufus and Denise Harris have been at the forefront of the independent artist movement through their organization, the Christian Artists & Musicians Project. This dynamic organization, better known as The CAMP, is dedicated to bringing spiritual enrichment to the community via the arts. The CAMP sponsors a number of special events throughout the year. One of their most popular events is Storytellers, held in conjunction with Pontiac's Bridge Church. Denise Harris sat down for a brief, virtual chat with the Examiner.com about Storytellers 2009.
Why did you start Storytellers?
Our church, the Bridge, is located at the Lafayette Grande in the heart of Pontiac and every year when Arts, Beats & Eats comes to town, we get a lot of foot traffic. We thought having an outdoor event on Sunday would let the community know who we were. We started off just having our morning services outdoors. Then we thought, why not expand the event to appeal to music lovers? We know people come to Arts, Beats & Eats to hear good music and we know a lot of independent artists because of our 4th Fridays music event. So, we invited some of our musician friends to participate in what we now call Storytellers.
What is the goal of the event?
Storytellers was created to showcase independent artists and present diverse Gospel music to people attending Arts, Beats & Eats. We all have interesting stories to tell -- many tell stories using the vehicle of music. We're all about expressing faith through the arts. Attendees can enjoy great music under the shade in front of the beautiful and historic Lafayette Grande.
What's the line-up for Storytellers 2009?
This year's event will feature the following artists: Sarah Dalton, Rachanee, Not Our Own, William Reynolds, Therese Maynard, David Ivey, Paul Dozier and Rufus Harris.
How does Storytellers further the mission of The CAMP?
The CAMP aims to enrich the community with inspirational music and to showcase gifted independent Christian artists who are not in the spotlight of mainstream performance -- but really should be. This event gives them exposure to a large audience. A lot of folks do not realize how much talent there is here in the Detroit area.
How can people help support Storytellers and other events sponsored by The CAMP?
They can, of course, come out to Storytellers. They can also attend our monthly show in Dearborn called 4thFridays. More information can be found on our website: www.theCampOnline.org. We are a non-profit 501c3 organization. Donations are always welcome and help us further our cause.
Storytellers 2009 is a family-friendly event and it will be held on Sunday, September 6. Sunday service at the Bridge runs from 10:30 a.m. until 12:15 p.m. Storytellers 2009 runs from 1:30 until 7:00 p.m. at the Lafayette Grand located at One Lafayette Ave (corner of Lafayette Ave. and Saginaw) in Pontiac during Arts, Beats & Eats. There will be free cider and doughnuts offered throughout the day. More information can be found at www.theBridgechurch.com. You can also get more information at firstname.lastname@example.com or (248) 872-1197.

.- Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone has offered a positive assessment of his nearly seven year-long tenure as Vatican Secretary of State, which will come to an end this October.
According to L'Osservatore Romano, the cardinal spoke to reporters after a recent Mass in Sicily to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the miraculous image of Our Lady of Tears.
"Cardinal Bertone wished to remember and underscore the important foundations that have inspired and sustained his service at the Secretariat of State – including a harmonious relationship between faith and reason, between law and natural law, between tradition and modernity – and to also recall memorable events such as the World Youth Days of Sydney and Madrid with Benedict XVI and Rio de Janeiro with Pope Francis," the publication said.
"My assessment of these seven years is positive," said Cardinal Bertone, according to Italian news agency Ansa.
"Naturally there have been many problems, especially during the last two years in which I was the target of accusations," he said, referencing a "network of crows and vipers."
"But this should not obscure what I think it is a positive assessment," he continued.
"Sometimes there are prejudices," the cardinal continued. "An honest assessment cannot fail to take into account the fact that the Secretary of State is the Pope's primary collaborate, a faith and loyal executor of the tasks entrusted to him. This was something I have done and will continue to do."
The Secretary of State "works with five others as a team, and it is a wonderful group that works well together," Cardinal Bertone said.
"I have always given my all," he stated, "but I surely have my defects. If I had to think of certain moments, I would have acted differently, but that does not mean I have not strived to serve the Church."
The cardinal will step down from the position of Secretary of State on Oct. 15, when Vatican diplomat Archbishop Pietro Parolin will take over after being appointed to the post by Pope Francis on Aug. 31.

Frequently asked questions about Young Friends' sleepovers
There are usually six sleepovers a year for Young Friends where they can spend a night exploring areas of the Museum after dark! There's a great range of activities to get involved in – from storytelling, music and dance workshops, re-enactments and craft activities to talks by curators on the Museum's collection, plus a chance to see one of the current exhibitions. It's a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the Museum and the collection!
Please note that sleepovers are one of the most popular activities, places are allocated on a first-come first-served basis and tend to sell out quickly.
Please do not promise children that they will be attending a sleepover until you receive written confirmation from the Membership team via email. If you leave your booking details in a voicemail or email for the Membership Team, please be aware that this may not be responded to immediately and does not therefore guarantee that places have been reserved for you.
What is the age group?
Sleepovers are for 8–15-year-olds only. Children under 8 are not permitted to attend. Where possible, children will be grouped according to age. Siblings will be grouped together unless otherwise requested by their parents/guardians.
Where is the sleeping area?
Sleepovers are for 8–15-year-olds only. Children under 8 are not permitted to attend. Where possible, children will be grouped according to age. Siblings will be grouped together unless otherwise requested by their parents/guardians.
Where is the sleeping area?
The Egyptian Sculpture and Mesopotamian Galleries on the Ground floor. Young Friends and their parties will be placed in a sleeping area in their group with team leaders stationed at entrances/exits if you need assistance.
What happens on the evening?
A typical sleepover includes:
18.15 Registration – meet your group leader, choose a sleeping
plot in the allocated gallery
19.00 Introductory talk including health and safety
19.20 First activity
20.15 Second activity
21.00 Snack break

07.00 Breakfast, pack up sleeping area
07.45 Farewell activity (exhibition-based)

What do we have to bring?
- Each person coming needs to bring a sleeping bag, ground mat, pillow, torch, toothbrush, ear plugs (the sleeping area is communal, so if you are a light sleeper you may find these beneficial!)
- Clothing to sleep in i.e. a tracksuit (NOT pyjamas or other nightwear – this is in case of an emergency and we have to quickly evacuate the building). Changing in the galleries is not permitted due to it being a communal area. The galleries can be cold, so please dress appropriately – we encourage you to bring layers.
- Snacks and refreshments to have at the snack break time. Food will not be provided until breakfast, so you will probably need something to keep you going (there is tea/coffee for adults during the snack break at 21.00)
Please note that items which need an electric plug are NOT permitted at the sleepovers e.g. motorised blow-up mattresses and phone chargers. We strongly recommend not bringing things with you that are of financial or sentimental value.
When is the next sleepover?
For information on upcoming sleepover dates, visit the Young Friends sleepovers page. To ensure you receive notification of when booking opens, please contact the Membership team to check we have your email address on file.
Please note: You will not be able to make a booking using an iPad or tablet device.
Bookings can be made online through the Young Friends' events page. You will need the Young Friend's Membership number to place the booking, but you do not need to be a Member yourself. If you do not have an online account you will be prompted to create one in order to place the booking. Once you've placed your order, you will receive confirmation via email.
How much does it cost?
Sleepovers are an experience you'll never forget and for just£35 per person you'll receive:
- Materials for activities, including arts and crafts
- Breakfast including yogurt, fruit, pastry and juice
- Overnight accommodation sleeping among the British Museum's objects in the Egyptian Sculpture or Mesopotamian Galleries (on the Ground floor)
- Experienced staff who constantly ensure you have a safe and enjoyable event
How many tickets can I buy?
Each Young Friend can book a maximum of five tickets per sleepover, of which one must be an adult. This works out at one adult, one Young Friend, plus up to 3 of their friends. A maximum of two adults is permitted per group but this will reduce the amount of child guests. Siblings who are both Young Friends can bring a party of (up to) five each but they must include an adult or guardian for each party of (up to) five.
Please note that we cannot facilitate large parties who wish to be grouped together, but if you would like to be put in the same group as another Young Friend, please give adequate notice to the Membership Team to ensure that we have time to accommodate your request.
What are the adults' responsibilities?
Adults are responsible for their party at all times throughout the night. This will ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable evening. An adult must be present in each activity and accompany the children at all times.
What if a child is being accompanied by an adult who is not a parent or legal guardian?
We will need the child's parent or guardian to fill in a consent form which will be sent with the booking confirmation via email. The child's parent or guardian will need to fill this in online which will then automatically update the booking.
What if I need to cancel?
If you are unable to attend please let the Membership team know as soon as possible on 020 7323 8195 or email@example.com so that the tickets can then be made available to other Young Friends. Please note that refunds cannot be given within two weeks of an event and an administration charge of £2 will be made for every refund prior to this.

This episode focuses on the strong bonds between brothers, Shinzou and Shinpei and Switch and Masafumi. For the former, Shinzou and Shinpei get in a heated argument but despite this, the two reconcile, both realizing that they always look out for one another as brothers. As for the latter, Switch narrates his past when Masafumi was alive and how he deeply cared for and loved him, despite his brother's greater achievements and talents.
The episode starts with the Sket Dan completing a request from Yoshie who wanted to get together with her crush by having her offer him two rare tickets to a concert he desperately wanted to attend. Later, Bossun starts to tell his team that his "damsel in distress" plan would have brought better results, when they suddenly notice Shinzou trying to dissuade a teen from driving out so late at night and causing trouble. They later learn that the teen was Shinzou's brother, Shinpei, a first year at Kaimei Academy.
At Shinzou's house, Shinzou explains that when him and Shinpei were younger, they constantly trained in kendo, however the latter couldn't excel as expected hence he decided to quit in his second year in middle school and became more defiant. Although the Sket Dan state that its normal for a teen to act rebellious sometimes, Shinzou clarifies that his concern lies with his brother developing a bad influence and going out late every night. He continues saying that he believes it all started with an argument they had after Shinpei used and broke his lucky bamboo sword to beat up a group of ruffians. After refusing to hit him for it, claiming that it would only sully his hand, Switch remarks that he should have done it to show that he has feelings for his brother. Bossun then tells his team that they shouldn't get involved between brothers and leave only to later spy on Shinpei by wearing Afros as disguises.
As they observe him, Yoshie pops up with her crush, Takashi, and begs Himeko, as a former bandmate, to come with them to do some karaoke because she's too nervous to be alone with him. However, they soon notice Shinpei driving off who stops by a river to look for something. While doing so, the ruffians he beat up earlier suddenly appear, ready to take revenge on him by bringing their entire gang along with them. As he fights them off with his fists, Bossun and his team arrives to help him out. With Himeko by his side, the gang finally gives up and run off but not without warning Shinpei that they'll be back. Once gone, Sket Dan ask if he came to the river to look for Shinzou's bamboo sword to which Shinpei confirms. He explains that he didn't use the sword to fight the delinquents because he knew that it meant a lot to his brother. But one of the guys dumped it into the river, hence he's been looking for it ever since in hopes that he'll find it before his brother's match tomorrow. Suddenly, Switch removes his shoes and drops his computer, and begins to search for the sword in the water. Despite Shinpei's protest, Bossun and Himeko decide to join in.
The next day, Shinpei arrives at the Kendo tournament and becomes shocked upon learning that Shinzou had lost his match. He then falls to his knees and asks his brother for forgiveness. Shinzou however, tells him that he lost because he was weak not because he didn't have his bamboo sword. Although Shinpei argues otherwise, Shinzou refuses to let him take the blame by taking out his sword and challenging him to a match. As they battle, the Sket Dan smile over the brothers' reconciliation.
The second half of the episode flashes back to Switch's (a.k.a Kazuyoshi) younger years as a 14-year-old boy. It begins with the two having breakfast when Switch asks his brother, Masafumi (a.k.a. Switch; this is where Switch's nickname originated), to have a look at his computer, claiming that its beyond his abilities to fix it. Switch narrates, explaining that his brother used to be called "Usui-chi" in 3rd grade which somehow changed to "Switch", a nickname that reflected his technological intellect. He even admits that despite being one year younger, his brother was always smarter than him.
At school, Switch visits the bookstore where he decides to buy a computer programming guide for his brother. On his way home, he bumps into Sawa, one of his childhood friends along with her friend, Yukino. Switch explains that they went to different high schools following middle school and how over the years, she had gotten prettier.
At Switch's house, Sawa explains to him that she asked to come over to talk about a stalker that had recently started to follow her. He immediately asks her if she might know him but learns that she didn't. Although he was slightly skeptical about this at first, he disregarded it, admitting to himself that she had many male admirers since she was a junior, even though it made him unhappy. His thoughts are suddenly interrupted by Sawa who notices an old photo of her, him and Masafumi when they were children. She then starts to recall what happened before they took the photo, whereby she jokingly told him that she would be his wife when they get older. After suggesting they go to a fireworks show together again sometime, Masafumi walks in and greets her. During their conversation, Sawa asks about his "Speech Synthesis Program" to which he says that he's almost done, and decides to show her how it works.
In Masafumi's room, Sawa and Switch watch as he demonstrates the workings of his latest software. After doing so, Sawa reacts in an over-enthusiastic manner, hugging him over his brilliant accomplishment, while Switch smiles at him with pride, recalling how he taught him about computers only to be surpassed by him.
The next day, Sawa goes to her mailbox only to find a death threat written on a small note by someone anonymous.

It has been seven years since the town has experienced a sewer increase. According to Clerk-Treasurer Renee Sills, the 2012 sewer budget is $60,420 compared to $68,411.96 in 2011.

"With the 2012 budget at $60,420, we only have a cash flow left over of $2,537.79 and that is if we spend like we did last year."

Prophecy, Aliens & the Soul ~ Coast To Coast AM ~ Introduction by Greg Giles

Update from Drake on Freedomizer Radio. Starts at 29:50.
In a landmark interview, Andrea Rossi, the inventor of the E-Cat (cold fusion energy catalyzer), announced many breakthroughs in the development of his technology, answered a wide range of questions, and shared many details regarding the upcoming ten kilowatt heat unit for home use.
A FIRST: This is the first exotic free energy technology that we know of that has been submitted for UL certification, a major milestone prior to deployment to the market. |

My guest this week will be Devra Laval who 25 years ago had a miraculous healing take place after having an enlightenment experience of the Truth, in answer to the age old question "Who Am I". After this profound and transformative experience, she endeavored to integrate and deepen the experience into her everyday living, with the intention of serving others.» › › Read the full article by clicking here » › ›
This week, in response to my prayers, I received visions and
messages about the mechanics of how our reoccurring thoughts manifest
into reality. This is so exciting, because the angels showed both the
energetic basis AND the solution for reoccurring negative patterns!
Any negative pattern that you've experienced
consists of
Individual thoughts that look like little vibrating microscopic globes,
like the nuclei of atoms. These atoms are right next to your body, each
connected by a magnetic bond to you.» › › Read the full article by clicking here » › ›
Can you believe we are half way through the year already?
There is a lot going on with Mother Earth and with our own paths as we
move forward. Everything is speeding up.
Mother Earth is fully
involved in the birthing process now. If we look at the seismic graphs
of where she is moving the most, it is in the Pacific basin, called
The Ring of Fire. We can expect that to continue for quite a while,
with new land eventually showing up in the Pacific Ocean. South
America's west coast and North America's California need to be prepared
through the end of this year for major movement as well. While these
shifts are seemingly random at times they all are purposeful in
bringing in the new world.
For our own paths, we are also seeing
many changes as we strive for Ascension. Spirit says that people
increasingly doubt their spiritual messages, including moving, letting
go of relationships, leaving jobs, etc. The old is always more
comfortable than the new. The situation that is at hand though doesn't
allow for much time to correct our course. So what ends up happening
is that these things get taken from us to force us where our Souls want
us to be.
Look around and see if there are changes in your
relationships. Are there people in your life who seem to have decided
to stop progressing? This is causing gaps in some relationships that
is making it impossible to reach through to these people at this time.
Some people are wondering how to make these relationships work
anymore. It is best to let them go for now understanding that all is in
Divine order and each Soul knows exactly what it is doing for its own
Ascension process. Trying to hold on to what doesn't resonate in our
lives is futile and only brings distress and disharmony.» › › Read the full article by clicking here » › ›

BSmart Cafe and Catering serves hearty American food like subs, pizza, and breakfast all day. Fill your stomach with a selection of early morning meals including veggie omelets, hotcakes, and grits, or build a super sub with everything from sliced turkey to rib-eye steak. The caf??s pizza offers a savory treat coated with pepperoni, mushrooms, and green peppers, and wings come smothered in one of six sauces including jerk and Panama red.
The Carolina Kitchen is the most amazing and popular southern cuisine restaurant chain in the nation. It was created to offer its guest taste buds an amazing journey through the South. From the moment One enters, they are transported to another world; designed to stimulate the soul and indulge the senses.
Chef Timothy Dean, a former contestant on Bravo's Top Chef Season 7, builds gourmet burgers with certified grass-fed Angus beef free from hormones and antibiotics. Even though Dean honed his culinary skills under chef Jean-Louis Palladin at the Watergate Hotel and later at Paladin in New York City, he chose to focus on more casual cuisine for his own restaurant. According to a 2012 article in the Washington Post, Dean says, "I've always been in fine dining but I realized that people are just not spending that kind of money anymore." So he decided to pair his gourmet finesse with food that is accessible to everyone.
That decision paid off because his burgers earned him a rave review in the Baltimore Sun, which proclaimed, "The vibe is fast food, but the food – burgers, fries and gourmet pizzas – is worthy of white tablecloths." His burgers come crowned with classic toppings such as american cheese, vine ripe tomatoes, and bibb lettuce as well as inventive combinations such as The Baker burger with housemade jalapeño aioli and fried onions.
Along with signature burgers, Dean also features hand-tossed pizzas topped with jerk chicken and thai basil and sides of sweet potato fries with honey. For dessert, patrons may sip thick, handcrafted milk shakes in flavors including dark chocolate, vanilla bean, or strawberry. Sweets include red velvet cupcakes, Belgium chocolate-chip cookies, and Kahlua chocolate-chip brownies.
After admiring the lush gardens and historical exhibits of the stately and new renovated Riversdale House, sightseers often stroll the few blocks down to Calvert House Inn for fine dining. Built to pay homage to the hospitality and finery that the Riversdale House was renowned for, the elegant eatery now celebrates its 50th anniversary serving fine seafood to locals and tourists and has garnered praise from local news outlets. Pots bubble and hiss within the kitchen, where chefs fold oysters, shrimp, and scallops into a variety of classic dishes and craft their signature Maryland-style crab cakes from seasoned jumbo lump crab. The versatile chefs also extend their culinary expertise to a variety of land-grown specialties, including freshly ground burgers and premium steaks.
Out in the cheerful dining rooms, diners clink glasses of white wine in intimate booths, their faces illuminated by the glimmer of chandeliers. And to keep the mood convivial, these rooms play host to special events, including karaoke parties, Caribbean music nights, and performances from live bands. On Sundays, brunch diners raise glasses of OJ while live jazz music mingles through the air.
If comfort food is supposed to evoke a sense of ease and familiarity, the Impossible Double Hank burger breaks rather severely with tradition. With its intimidating name and heaps of lettuce, tomatoes, onions, bacon, and cheddar, the burger forces the brave patrons of Hank's Tavern & Eats to confront their most delicious fears. Though less overwhelming than the double-portioned hamburgers, the tavern's shrimp po' boys, baby back ribs, and fish burritos are made with similarly fresh ingredients and prove just as tasty. While digging into these and other hearty eats, patrons can follow local sports on 20 TV screens and guesstimate their height by lying facedown on the 50-foot bar.
Mid Atlantic Seafood's kitchen staff assembles creations from an eclectic menu of fish samplers, wings, sandwiches, breakfast items, and Chinese-inspired dishes. Patrons can choose from almost 20 types of fish, such as haddock ($9.99–$18.99) and catfish ($9.49–$18.49), and order they be baked, grilled, stuffed, or nestled between layers of bread in a sandwich.

Neko Case – Blacklisted lyrics
Fast train
Where do your passengers wait?
What's at the heart of your engine's rage?
To what smooth place at the end of the line
With crackling fires and quiet plains
Do the trees bend down
Fold their limbs round you?
Welcome home faithful one
We forgive you.
Slow down fast train
Slow down fast train
Take me with you

Rustic Bookcase from Fence Slats
Ever admired a rustic hand built bookcase only to be floored by the price? Well here's a simple way to make one using cedar 1x2's and fence pickets for around $35!
Projects built from this plan. Thank you for submitting brag posts, it's appreciated by all!
• 5 – 1×2 @ 8′
• 11 – cedar pickets
• glue
• nails
• sandpaper
Please read through the entire plan and all comments before beginning this project. It is also advisable to review the Getting Started Section. Take all necessary precautions to build safely and smartly. Work on a clean level surface, free of imperfections or debris. Always use straight boards. Check for square after each step. Always predrill holes before attaching with screws. Use glue with finish nails for a stronger hold. Wipe excess glue off bare wood for stained projects, as dried glue will not take stain. Be safe, have fun, and ask for help if you need it. Good luck!
4 – 1×2 @ 60″
10 – 1×2 @ 9.5″
4 – 1×2 @ 13.5″
wait to cut fence pickets for each step
Using glue and 1 1/2 inch nails, build the sides by making a rectangle with two 60″ pieces and two 9.5″ pieces. Be sure to check for square.
Use glue and nails to attach the two sides together with four 13.5″ pieces.
Measure and mark sides at 15″, 30″ and 45″. Use glue and nails to attach 1×2 pieces at 9.5″. Make sure the pieces have the flat sides up. These will be what you nail your shelf pieces in to.
Measure the width of the top of your bookcase and cut two fence slat pieces. Attach with nails and glue.
Measure the height of your sides including the new top slats. Cut two fence slats per side, attach with glue and nails. Make sure the front is flush, you may have a bit of overlap on the back.
Measure the height of the back of your bookcase, and cut 3 slats. We had a bit of overlap from the sides, but the backing fit snugly in between.
Measure your shelving space, and cut 8 pieces at that measurement (ours was 16.5″). Hold up a piece of scrap 1×2 and trace the outline. Notch out two outlines along the same side.
Use glue and nails to attach to your shelf supports. You may have to shave off a little width to fit them both inside.
Use a table saw to shave off any extra width from your un-notched side.
Measure for your front trim. Our front measured 2 1/8″ and we were able to get two pieces from one board. We used the scrap 1" piece for the inner shelf trim.
Attach the front side trim. Use glue, and secure with nails.
Attach your middle shelf trim. We used the 1″ thick scrap from the first ripped board for the three inner shelves. Use the thicker width for the top and bottom trim.
Attach your last two pieces with glue and nails.
