There are quite a few articles around these days claiming to be a way to travel the world for free. Most of them seem to be methods of trying to build up points from airlines so that you can get free flights and other freebies.
To me, the best thing to do is to try and find organizations like WWOOF, which places people on farms to do work in exchange for food and shelter, or Couch-surfing, which organizes people around the world to lend a couch to each other when they need one. There are plenty of places that organize ride sharing as well.
It won't end up being completely free, but your experience will be much richer for having met more people.

Top of PageThe founding of the City of Sacramento was a turbulent one - a beginning when life was cheap, the stakes were high and a large percentage of the population acted with the philosophy "it was every man for himself."
By 1849, Sacramento had grown rapidly from a small settlement at Sutter's Fort to a town of 10,000 people. The discovery of gold had brought people from all walks of life together. Sacramento had all the problems of a Wild West town. There were murders, robberies, shootings, and various other crimes committed in the city. In the summer of 1849, the city experienced its first lynching when a gambler named Roe was convicted by a citizens' committee and hanged for murder. On August 1, 1849, the City of Sacramento was founded when the first meeting of a Common Council was held. At that time, the City boundaries were north to the American river, east to 31st Street, south to Y Street and west to the Sacramento River, encompassing 4.5 square miles. N. C. Cunningham was appointed as the first City Marshall (the position now known as Chief of Police) and was given two deputies to enforce the law.
The city did not have a building for a police station or jail, so in May of 1850, the ship, LaGrange, was moored at the foot of H Street on the river and officially became the police station and jail boat.
As a result of the Gold Rush in 1852, Sacramento had grown in size until the population had reached 150,000 persons. The Police Department was also increased to six men. In addition to normal police duties, these six officers had to deal with the first Chinese Tong War to ever occur outside of China. Also, the most ambitious murder plot ever recorded in the West occurred during this period. Three men, one of them the Public Administrator, plotted to kill 55 leading wealthy Sacramentans for their money. Fortunately, the Police Department identified the murderers and arrested two of them after the first killing. Both men were subsequently convicted and hanged for their crime.
The Police Department grew slowly from 1849 to 1913 when it had 36 officers. The men of the Department patrolled the city on foot and on bicycles. The Department had two bicycles at that time. A typical bicycle beat covered about one half of the entire city, or about 200 square blocks. In those years, the Department did not have radio equipment. Communication between the Police Station and the beat officers was accomplished by telephones located in specially designated "call boxes" distributed throughout the city for this purpose.
Modern police history, as we now know it, began in 1917. The city's population had declined to just 90,000 people after the Gold Rush boom, but the Department now totaled 100 men. During this period, other changes were made: the Department moved into the new Hall of Justice building at 6th and I Streets; the use of modern, fast automobiles had been incorporated as a new tool in police work; the Department had developed an experienced, well-trained detective bureau and possessed one of the finest fingerprint bureaus in the country. At this point, police operations had begun to enter fields of specialization.
The Department may be larger now and uses newer and more scientific methods in fighting and solving crimes, but the men and women of the Department are still dedicated to the same goal as the first three officers were in 1848; still providing the best police services possible to the citizens of Sacramento.
Whether by patrol car, motorcycle, bicycle, mounted horse, or helicopter, the men and women of the Sacramento Police Department serve with honor while striving to work in partnership with the community to fulfill the Department's vision of Community-Oriented Policing.

Anyone with me?
According to this article on Yahoo Shine, "The average family spends over $600 annually on back-to-school shopping, making it the second-biggest consumer-spending season of the year."
But, honestly, we don't need anything right now, so, I'm not participating in the craziness.
Let's see...
*Grabbed a few new Polo shirts for the boys on sale at the outlets this summer - CHECK
*Pants still fit and they'll probably wear shorts for the first few weeks, anyway - CHECK
*Sneakers wore out in the spring...bought new ones...then, they wore Crocs all summer...sneakers like new - CHECK
*Backpacks look fine...boys still like them...don't want new ones - CHECK
*Lunch boxes are a little worn and smelly...but I'm not tackling a crowded store for that. - CHECK
*Whenever we buy school supplies, the boys don't seem to use them. Kids in 2nd and 4th grade really get everything they need in the classroom - CHECK
We saved our one big summer vacation for the last week of August...so, guess what? We're heading to the beach instead of the mall.
Are you spending a ton of money on "Back-to-School" items?
Good luck this week!

EAT Cleaner
EAT Cleaner is a collaboration between a daughter dedicated to promoting natural, healthy diets and a father who is an expert in environmental health science. After Dr. Ibrahim developed prostate and bladder cancer and survived the disease, he and his daughter began discussing the toxins that contributed to cancer and other illnesses. Both were concerned about the residues from pesticides and synthetic fertilizers that remained behind on produce, and they began to brainstorm ways that people could protect themselves from these toxins.
After experimenting, formulating and testing, the pair unveiled the EAT Cleaner collection, a line of products that help remove toxins, bacteria and dirt from the foods we eat. EAT Cleaner products are 100 percent natural and nontoxic, and they do not alter the taste or smell of food. The collection includes a variety of solutions to meet the needs of modern families, including sprays and wipes packaged both in canisters and individually.

Mirror Dynamics
Name: Adriana Status: other Age: 40s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 1999
I placed a few books on a mirror, then placed a small item on top of the middle of the books. Why does the mirror reflect that small item and not be blocked by the much larger books? I've always been fascinated how a whole room can be reflected in a small mirror.
The entire space on the reflecting side of a flat mirror can be seen in the mirror if the observer looks at the mirror at different angle (i.e., moves her head about).
For a given position of your eyes with respect to the mirror, you can see the portion of the space (on the reflecting side of mirror) that falls within the angle that you eyes make with the sides of the mirror. This is easier to illustrate graphically, but lets do a thought experiment to illustrate the point. If you take a flash light that produces a diverging (expanding) light beam and point it at a mirror (illuminating the entire mirror surface) in a dark room, you would see that the reflected beam from the mirror illuminate part of the room on the reflecting side of the mirror. This part of the room is the same part that you eye (placed at the same location as the flashlight) would see if you turn the lights on in the room and look into the mirror.
Regarding the small object on the books, you can see it if you properly position your eyes such that the angle that your eyes make with the mirror when reflected and traced out into space would have the small object in its field. (As you know, then angle of incident and reflection are the same off a mirror, a property that you would use in tracing out the said angles into space).
Hope this answers your question.

If I were to attempt the experiment described (place a mirror parallel to the floor, place a book on it, then place a small object on top of the book) I would not expect to be able to see the object in the mirror unless the object was tall enough to be seen sticking up above the book.
You will see in the mirror those parts of the object that would be visible if you replaced the mirror with a sheet of glass and then adjusted your position so your eyes were the same distance below the glass as they were above the mirror.

@Ana1234 - See, this is why this is a little bit of junk science. There's no real depth to this theory. They always trot it out in magazines and things like that to fill out articles like "ten ways to know he's into you" but there are hardly ever decent studies to back up the findings.
I'm not saying there isn't truth to it, because it's almost certainly true that people will change their way of speaking and their body language depending on who they are talking to.
I mean, the way I talk to a preschooler and the way I talk to my best friend are going to be completely different.
But to what extent is that unconscious? Is it learned behavior? Does it extend across cultures? If this was a rigorous scientific theory, it would be able to at least ask those questions, rather than just hand waving them away.

Like many of us in South Florida, I grew up in the New York metropolitan area. My hometown of Livingston, New Jersey, is a bedroom community for the city, and a large number of the adult inhabitants commute via the PATH trains and Port Authority to and from the financial districts. My father, a broker, does. Until last year or so, he worked in the World Financial Center. My sister, a financial broadcast journalist, spent a large amount of time in the same building, reporting for Wall Street Journal Television. My brother trades bonds from midtown. He was on the phone with a close friend of his who worked in the World Trade Center, when the first plane hit.
And like most of us, I have been not only patriotically but personally affected by these horrifying tragedies. My two oldest friends from childhood have had a tough time. CJ, who lives in D.C., couldn't locate her husband of only six months; he was in the Pentagon. Amy, a New Yorker, watched the Twin Towers crumble from the school in Brooklyn where she teaches, realizing seconds later that her brother was on the 99th floor of one of the skyscrapers. CJ's husband, Tim, made it out of the Pentagon. Amy's brother Jeff is missing and presumed dead. Knowing that he is probably only the first victim with whom I had ties, I did what any sane woman would do: I called my mom.

My mother is a counselor. She is as numb as anyone else, waiting for the list of victims from Livingston to be released. But she is able to help my father, brother, and sister, all of whom have lost good friends and colleagues. She has also told me: Take comfort in the trivial. Continue the everyday routine. Do what you do. In short, while I may not have the stomach for fine dining at the moment, and you may not have the heart to read about it, we're going to do it anyway, if only for escapism.
Ironically, perhaps, on the day when our nation's fabric and democracy seemed irreparably torn, a few gastronomes were about to sew the initial stitch in making a whole cloth out of the South Florida dining community. A small number of us were going to attend the first of a new event, which for lack of a better term we'll call a wine exchange dinner, at Nemo. There, chef-proprietor Michael Schwartz, using a palette of Terrazas de los Andes Argentine wines, would create and serve a multicourse dinner. The purpose? To better his acquaintance with another area chef, Willis Loughhead from Tantra, who in turn would use the same wines but come up with his own menu and present it to Schwartz in a couple of weeks. The hope is that this kind of chef outreach will result, if not in some true friendships, then at least in some friendly alliances. The NATO of fine dining, if you will. Or the formation of a new Mango Gang, with the equivalent potential for friendly competition and capitalistic gain.
All of this is not to say that our South Florida chefs are always at odds with one another. Some of them have, over the years, formed great attachments. Take former Wish chef Andrea Curto and her fiancé, Gaucho Room toque Frank Randazzo. The relationship between these two South Beach chefs, who are planning to open a restaurant together, is obvious, but it's even more gratifying to the casual observer that another hot young chef, their good friend Michelle Bernstein from Azul in the Mandarin Oriental hotel, will be presenting the fare at their wedding.
Unless they meet in a restaurant kitchen, however, chefs don't always have the opportunities to get to know one another, especially those who work in different South Florida counties. Even when they band together to donate time and energy to multicounty charity events like the Allen Susser-chaired Share Our Strength, they're generally too busy preparing their offerings to do much socializing. Pretty much the only time they get to taste each other's food in a restaurant setting is during their down time. And a lot of chefs, particularly those with partners or families, like to take advantage of that one night off to hang out at home.
Needless to say arranging wine exchange dinners was a bit tricky. We had to schedule them on the chefs' respective nights off -- Loughhead at Nemo on a Tuesday, Schwartz at Tantra on a Monday. We also had to work around their prior commitments; for instance Schwartz was in the process of opening his third restaurant, Shoji Sushi, in South Beach, and Loughhead was writing the menu for his James Beard House dinner in New York, which was supposed to take place on September 20. (As of press time, it looks as though this event may be postponed.) So while the idea was devised back in early summer, it took two months to find copacetic dates and plan the dinners. When the catastrophe occurred, we debated all day whether to delay the Nemo dinner. But in the end, we decided to follow my mom's advice: Take comfort in the trivial. Do what you do.

It is not often I come across a new artist that knocks my socks off. I mean someone I never heard of before.... at all. Ivor Hele was one of the most productive Australian artists in their history completing more commissioned works than any other artist in the country to that time. He is primarily known as a war artist stationed in North Africa and then New Guinea during WWII, He later drew with Australian troops in Korea. After the war, though he became a bit of a recluse, doing commissioned portraits ( Winning the top Australian prize for portrature, The Archibald prize, five times ) and many drawings and paintings of his second wife, all nudes from what I have seen. These intimate drawings seem to be viewed as a release from depicting what must have been the horrors of war in his earlier career. Little is seen of his work outside of Australia from what I can dig up.
His drawing especially appeals to me. I see a very lithe, languid and sensuous drawing style in much of his portraits of single figures. In his war drawings a very earthy workman like quality shows up where the toil and energy expended in the scene are very evident. His drawing style most reminds me of D. Cornwell, F. Brangwyn, N. Fechin and R. Fawcett
I can find only two published works curently available:
1.) Ivor Hele, A Productive Artists published 2002 Wakefield Press
Focusing on his post war figure work
2.) Ivor Hele The Heroic Figure published 1997 AWM
Published by the Australian War Memorial Which holds the bulk of his war art.
My son spent two months studying in St. Petersburg this past summer. He came home with a few illustrated books and I thought I'd post some of the pictures.
These fine clean, loose little vignette pen and ink sketches accompanied a volume of Pushkin poetry. Circa 1950's
Another wrap in Hood River, Oregon. I had to cut short my painting by two days. I had one awful day, one productive day and the third somewhere in between. I have a problem in this particular show. There are specific sites chosen each day that the artists CAN paint if they want. I find that typically when I go to a site... I end up not painting that well or talk too much and don't get a painting started. I usually need to find my painting and with 20 to 30 artists at one spot... well I feel all itchy. I want to head off to some little corner. It is too bad because I love painting in the company of friends.
This year I spent part of the time painting with a couple of friends, but most of the time alone. My painting brain seems to function best when it is tuned to it's own peculiar frequency. I did go downtown with a handful artists and do a night painting. We had a great time and people seem much more interested and responsive when I paint at night ( maybe I look more approachable?) . There were all sorts of headlamps shining up and down Oak Street. I find I can only paint with ambient light, either from a street light or store window. This year I did "Checkin' it out". The figures hangin' in front of Trillium Pub were watching fire engines down the street, however I like to think they are checking out a female passerby. When the young fellow in the hat asked if he could be in my painting I said I only do nude models. He started undressing until his buddies told him he was embarrassing himself!
Here are three of the oils in the show. Two sold and my watercolor Rasmussen took Third Place.
All the folks at the Columbia Center for the Arts do a bang up job putting it all together.
Once again I was able to chronicle the Port Townsend Acoustic Blues festival. It has come to be one of my favorite art events of the year. It is sometimes a bit too much of a challenge to get a good sketch in with all the movements a musician makes.... but when you knock one off you are happy with it feels all the more sweeter.
Here are three favorites from the week. This year I decided to stay late for the jam sessions that go from 10:00 to 2:00 in the morning ( I remember ART JAMMING in college but I do not know how musicians do it!). My friend Jim Nyby was playing at the piano.
I usually work in pencil, and/or watercolor. This year I decided to use General's Charcoal on toned paper with some white chalk pencil. The scans of the paper color is lighter than actual color. I really like the Strathmore Artagain papers.
The wonderfully talented musician Chieck Hamala Diabate is a bit easier for me to capture. He plays in a very hypnotic easy rhythmic fashion that allows me to capture a good likeness.
Lastly, sometimes I find it hard enough to draw hands from a posed figure.When I can capture a rapidly moving one it makes my day!
I was a bit concerned about all I heard about the heat from last years event. I wondered how the high heat and humidity would affect my watercolors. The day I arrived artists Thomas Kitts and Hai-Ou Hou drove me around to look for painting spots. We were caught in a downpour with no umbrellas ..... warm and wet! We had a few days before the festival began and had a few opportunities to paint. I sold a couple of 8x10's right off the bat which really was a nice way to start things off.
The festival is so well run. I met a bunch of artists I am familiar with and had the chance to paint with a few of them.
Ned Mueller ( who won best of show last year ) and my Oregonian friend Eric Bowman gave me a hard time doing sissy watercolors. We were painting inside the Cutts and Case boatyard where I did this small 10x7 "Cutts Patent Method".
The first day of painting I ended up doing three keepers for the show which made me sigh and relax a bit. The heat index was just starting to creep up. The first few days were relatively mild, however by Friday the temps were well over 100 degrees with high humidity. I was still, surprising myself, able to keep painting as long as I had some shade. The sunrises and sunsets were wonderful with all the humidity diffusing the light. I ran out early to catch a sunrise at the Maritime Museum in St. Michael's. Greg Larock was already well underway with his piece. I titled this 8x10 "Good Morning Mister Jim".
This was one event I did not do a "pure" landscape. There was so many other subjects to consider... I ended up doing, without planning to, mostly boats. There were a lot of great street scenes as well. Easton protocol requires each artists to paint within city limits for two days. St. Michael's is full of great townscape subject matter as well. I finished this "Evening" painting in the morning! I got up well before sunrise and did a backwards nocturne. What was nice about working this way is that I could tighten up as it got lighter. This may be my favorite piece of the week, "Tucked Away" 14x10.
I had heard from other watercolorists that oils tended, in their opinion, to sell better. With that in mind I decided to do approximately 50/50 oils and watercolors. I ended up selling seven paintings........ six were oils! I will continue to push the watercolors however. Here are two of my favorite watercolors of the week.
In all I had a wonderful time. One of the highlights for me was the quickdraw. I always love the challenge of these. I decided to push myself and do a 12 x 16 oil. I rarely work that big on site... and I had two hours to paint a Farmers Market scene. Maybe the heat was getting to me. I had a ton of fun, even though the artists around me and I did NOT hear the horn to begin. I slashed and sketched away, framed it and put it up on my easel and it was sold within about 30 seconds. I only have this in progress shot. This experience encourages me to do more pieces this size. The turnover at easton is high each year. A fair percentage of artists do not repeat the following year so I won't be surprised if i don't make it in,,, but I will definitely apply!
Just like any other artist I get excited when I come across something that hits me in some certain odd way. Recently while walking my dogs on the beach I came across a 78' long tree on the beach. It sat there like some ancient ship, or old pier. The root ball sticking defiantly into the horizon. I was so struck by it, especially with the soft grey light that I wanted to try to make a painting of it. I initially did a quick sketch and the next day did an oil sketch.
Try as I might I just could not get it to work.... the initial feeling I had would not fit into the constraints of a frame. My good friend Gregg Caudell is my go to guy for things I am unsure of. He spent some time with the great artist Bill Reese ( who passed away just last year ). Gregg reminded me of what Bill might say... something like"Why in the hell did you paint that thing".
There have been many times I see a composition in passing but when I return with paints in tow... I cannot make it work as a picture. That is the struggle we all face.. picking and choosing subjects matter that we can turn into our best work. What may work as inspiration for poetry, or music, or a short story doesn't necessarily make it as a painting.
Last year while at the Sonoma Plein Air Festival I tried three separate times to paint a townscape. I know it will make a great painting... I just have to persevere. Maybe this year I'll get it down.
Snow........ it is the earliest snow we've had here in the northwest since I can remember. I am not accustomed to painting in the snow but today gives me a good opportunity to do a couple of paintings.
After driving around a bit, looking for a place where I could paint from my car I decided to just go across the street to Mystery Bay State Park. In between wipers moving from time to time, and getting more heat in the car I produced this little 6 x 8 panel. What I really love about the grey weather we have here is limiting my palette. In this case I used four colors:
Viridian, Alizarine, Titanium White, and Raw Sienna ( for the hint of warmth in some of the bushes.
Of course a few times the view was completely obliterated with heavy wind driven snow, and the original reflective quality of the water disappeared immediately. The boats moved with the wind. I really like the subtlety of the middle and background. If the sun was out I'd need to add say a Cobalt blue to may palette.
The other shot is down my driveway from my studio. With this picture I added Ultramarine and Cad Red Light, as well as Thalo Green...

A Post-Apocalyptic Web Series set in the ruins of New York City and filmed in the real-life abandoned spaces of the 5 boroughs.
About this project
We're so grateful to all the people that have put their faith in us and we're looking forward to creating a world like no other.
Please continue to pledge: we will guarantee every dollar will go towards making the series more amazing and exciting than ever.
The DVDs for Kickstarter backers will be individually numbered and will have a limited edition cover that reflects the fact that you guys believed in us when this was all just a dream. Thank you!
Welcome to New York City.
Population: 01
When an unexplained event decimates the human race, the survivors fight for their lives in the ruins of a once mighty civilization.
A decade later, the dangers of the new world have taken their toll. Hopelessness and isolation have felled many of the original survivors, and now one man walks alone, determined to endure against all odds.

The Project
For me to expire in humanity's bosom was to be born and become infinite, but if anyone put forward the hypothesis that a cataclysm might some day destroy the planet, I would be panic-stricken. - Jean Paul Satre
The End-Of-The-World is a scenario that has fascinated artists and storytellers as long as there has been a world to end.
Because of the costs of filmmaking, this genre of cinema has long been the domain of the megaplex.
No longer. With advances in filmmaking, and your help, we believe the time has come for a independent, haunting, exciting post-apocalyptic series.
By shooting in the real-life abandoned, disused spaces of New York, we aim to bring realism and production value and make the story come alive.
We want to show that smart, meaningful, soulful films don't have to be boring, and that zombie films don't have to be brainless.
The Interface
The most exciting factor about the web series medium is its ongoing interaction with its audience. You, the viewer, can effect the story as it progresses. We want to take this to the next level, and bring you into the process by showing not just how we make films but why we make them.
Along with the 5 episodes we will be releasing in April/May 2012, The Silent City will be uploading new tutorials and behind-the-scenes videos every week from Feb 2012 until the first season wraps. These will cover geeky things making ruins in Autodesk Maya and Adobe After Effects, as well transforming actors into the subterranean undead.
We hope these will help people that are starting out in the film industry, want to create something of their own, or are just curious about how things get done. Everyone who donates gets access to the tutorials, and can vote on topics for future ones.
The Network
Keep in touch and follow The Silent City as it becomes a reality
The Team
Rubidium Wu trained as a painter, but like many artists of his generation, became fascinated with emerging technologies and the new worlds they could create. Over the last 10 as a filmmaker, he produced the art documentary 'Portraits of Silence' as well as directed commercials for Nike, Playstation, and Nintendo.
Eric Stafford is an actor with a strong interest in history, technology, science and sci-fi. Incidentally, he is drawn to physical activities that would be advantageous in post-apocalyptic world, like rock climbing & Brazilian Jiu-Jiitsu.
Kettie Jean is an actress with a passion for politics, philosophy and lost civilizations. Her experience as a traveller and hiker combined with her martial arts skills imakes her the perfect candidate for the last living woman.
Rob Rusli is a Chinese American composer, producer, sound designer, and rapper. He has composed symphonic works and concertos, as well as written musicals for the stage. He has written scores for multiple award winning films and balances the old school and the new school with his experimental rap group Blue Belt.

As a Latina On a Mission to save, I try to always find ways to earn extra money. Thanks to Mommy Kennedy of The Frugal Kennedys, I discovered a way to surf the net AND make some extra money in the process! I use Swagbucks!
For those of you who aren't familiar with Swagbucks, let me explain.
Swagbucks is a program that you can use to search the internet. The search site uses google.com to return your results. Each search that you conduct earns you "Swag Bucks" or points. These points can then be exchanged for products in their Swagbucks store. You can use your "Swag Bucks" for comic books, sports cards, T-shirts, books, video games, gift cards and so much more! I prefer the gift cards because they are just like cash. My favorite gift cards are from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Macys, Sephora, Target, iTunes, and Starbucks! The amount of "Swag Bucks" required for each gift card varies. The lowest start at $2.
Each search conducted on the site also gives you an opportunity to earn random "Swag Bucks" in the amount of $1, $2 or $5. You can earn extra points by referring others to Swagbucks too. If you are interested in signing up, I posted my referral below. As a new member, you will automatically earn $3 by using my link below and so will I!
It's a pretty effortless way to earn extra money for something I tend to do everyday anyway. On most days, I can earn a SwagBuck in the morning and another one at night. It's also worth noting that only your first 20 searches each day qualify for the random awards.
Signing up will also help support Latina On a Mission. So go ahead do us both a good deed and earn yourself $3 by using my button below, then start racking up some "Swag bucks" for your summer time pleasure!
Note: Swagbucks is available in the US and Canada.

My favorite character of all time is Ryu from the Street Fighter franchise.
He's doesn't fight to serve his own purposes, he fights for the sake of fighting. To truly understand what fighting is. He is on a quest for enlightenment and to strenghten his own ability. He has no ulterior motives, he doesn't demand recognition, but he get's it anyway.
That and if you ever played Street Fighter II: Championship Edition, watch as the player profiles go by. You'll see that his birthday is July 21, 1964. Which means his birthday is the same exact day as mine and he's exactly my mother's age--give or take four or five months. ^_^

Hemisphere Original Long-Sleeved Shirt
Deep Pocket top is too narrow
First of all let me say that this is a great travel shirt. With all of the pockets I have a separate places for my pens (for customs forms), ear phones, passport, pills. I tend to lose things and now I know where everything is.
I use a travel wallet (4 1/2" by 9") to keep my critical papers: passport, yellow fever certificate, vouchers, boarding pass, credit card, etc. It fits just fine in the large interior pocket. That is, if you can get it in. The pocket width at the top (the shirt part, not the pocket pouch itself) is too narrow. You have to bend the wallet to get it in.
I checked on several wallets and all of them have this same problem. My solution was to have a tailor widen the pocket top. At first they said it was too difficult, but it turned out fine. But it cost me an extra $20.

Full of wrinkles, not a buy
I purchased this shirt to take on a 10 day business trip to Japan. Shirt came in from seller in a wrinkled mess. I washed the shirt and dried per the instructions. It came out of the dryer even more wrikled. I left the shirt at home, but have tried to wear it after ironing it. After two hours of wear time , it began to wrinkle up, not a shirt for business nor pleasure. Will assign this shirt to cut the grass and weed the flower bed in.
October 12, 2010
Needs to be Ironed
I was surprised that after washing the shirt that it needed to be ironed to wear. I like it once it is ironed, but I really thought that a travel shirt should be able to be worn without absolutely having to be ironed. That is disappointing.
October 16, 2010
Husband Loves the feel of this shirt!
Loved the feel and fit of this shirt! The hidden pocket was one of the main attractions. It is a generous pocket; however can be challenging for reaching into the opening if you have a large hand. It is the width of the outer pocket so any design change to adjust would probably require a wider outer pocket.
October 31, 2014
Awesome shirt
My husband loves these shirts in short sleeve, long sleeve and all colors.
November 6, 2014
For comfort & style
Perfect fit, soft & comfortable, looks great. Easy-care. After buying & wearing one several times, I bought two other colors. Love them.
October 28, 2014
Watch out for Stains
I purchased two of these shirts for a trip to Ireland. I don't have the wrinkle issues that other reviewers have mentioned. The shirts pack well and wrinkles fall out easily. My problem is with staining. Both of these shirts stain instantly if anything falls on them. Stains cannot be blotted out on site and will not easily wash out. Even simple stains (think ketsup) which wash out of cotten garments easily, require multiple pre-treatments and washings to get out of these shitrs. Travelsmith, fix this issue ant these get five stars accross the board!
May 18, 2012
This shirt is of excellent quality and fit. It's lightweight and packs very economically. It's the fourth one I've purchased. Just great for travel.

Superhero Site Snark LinkBlogging
- Posted by Johanna on December 6, 2007 at 10:43 pm
- Category: LinkBlogging
At Comics Should Be Good, they point out the following writer's guarantee:
Keith Champagne came by the blog a couple of weeks ago to make the following offer – if you buy his upcoming comic, Countdown: Arena #1, and do not enjoy it – he will purchase the comic back from you at double the cover price. His contact info is firstname.lastname@example.com.
Given the rotten reviews the series has gotten, I worry for his budget. But those who will actually buy the comic are likely to be already be interested in the "who'd win" plotting and random dice-roll-style character selection. "Writer" is kind of an extraneous role in today's editor-driven superhero industry.
Meanwhile, at Newsarama, they open up a thread to ask Marvel editor Steve Wacker questions. The introduction specifically states
Steve told us he's willing to field the ten best Spider-Man: Brand New Day questions from Newsarama readers about the upcoming era. Please note – Wacker's not going to give away any secrets of how "One More Day" ends, and will be somewhat limited in what he can say about the specifics of Spidey's life post his run-in with Mephisto.
The rest of the first page is fans asking (or even griping) about One More Day, and site owner Matt Brady getting increasingly testy with them. Some samples:
with questions like that, you're wasting your time.
Did I write those instructions in not English?
Bummer that the fans won't just lie down and take whatever Marvel forces on them, hunh? One smart respondent points out:
Matt, exactly what can we ask?
I'm not trying to be a smart alec. I'm just not sure what the point of the excercise is here. Other than another general discussion about members of the creative teams I don't know where else this Q & A can go.
I'm sure no plot details can be elaborated on, and given that OMD is at least a month away from being done, no one is able to accurately ask a question about the new direction. No one really knows exactly what the new playing field is and I'm sure Steve can't elaborate on anything either. And he certainly can't comment on leaks or fan speculation. … personally, I've long given up hope of some sort of act of contrition concerning shipping delays and its effect on event momentum.
So, respectfully, I'm just not sure what we all can cover here.
Another tries to be creative, saying that he'll be dropping the title and then asking, in the promotional spirit, "what other Marvel titles can you recommend?" My answer? X-Men First Class.

December 6, 2007 at 11:39 PMThat thread turns out to be EXACTLY what I need to read after giving a long and difficult lecture. What a riot — I like the poster who compares the thread to a bonfire. (More substantively, the same post notes that the OMD posts aren't going to be picked anyway, so why the over-reaction from Brady?)
- Tim O'Shea Says:
December 7, 2007 at 6:53 AMI could never be Matt Brady. Because of the message board backbone of his daily job, everyone is a critic. It amazes me that, even after a major sale of the site like Brady and Doran just did, Brady is still the guy in the message board trenches waving the flag (in this instance) for Marvel. Clearly he must enjoy it on some level, but it would not be for me.

But what's up in the air in Foxborough this Friday is
The second-year punter has been dealing with the first major injury of his football career this week. He suffered it in the third quarter of last week's game versus the San Diego Chargers, when, after unleashing a booming punt from his own end zone, Mesko landed awkwardly on teammate
Mesko's left (kicking) knee buckled and he went down in a heap, clutching his knee in obvious pain. He did return later in the game to hold for a couple of
While Mesko has dressed for practice every day this week, he has been limited in what he could do. He did, however, acknowledge that he has kicked a few balls this week to test out the knee.
"We've tested it out a little bit, but today's going to be the day to decide it," he announced to a throng of reporters around his locker.
"It's all up to today's practice," Mesko told reporters in the locker room. "I feel good [and] we'll see how we test it out fully. I feel like I put in all I got as far as rehab goes."
The Patriots aren't taking any chances, however. They reportedly worked out two veteran punters this week: Matt Dodge (formerly of the Giants) and Jeremy Kapinos (late of Pittsburgh). A final move might not be made until the weekend, but Mesko stressed that Friday's practice would be the determiner.
"I'm going to do whatever it takes to get out there, give it all I got. Ultimately, it's the coaches' decision whether they want to take me to Buffalo. I'd be excited if they would choose so," he said with a smile.
For an athlete dealing with his first significant medical crisis, Mesko seems to be keeping things in proper perspective.
"Not anxious," he explained. "If I can't go, I know I gave it all I got."
He went on to describe the sensation of being hurt on the field, something he'd never before experienced to this degree.
"It was a weird feeling. I knew I still had a duty to Steve and the team to try and make it a go, but, obviously, it wasn't working. I tried helping Steve out with the holding as much as I can.
"That was a first-time thing. First few moments there was kind of strange."
Did he think it was more serious than it seems to have been?
"I had no clue. I'm always an eternal optimist," Mesko replied, "so, I was hoping for the best. It wasn't too bad … Just a little freak thing."
Carter fined
Carter was immediately flagged for roughing the passer, costing the Patriots 15 yards, and thought that was the end of it … until he received a FedEx package from the league office.
"I thought I was home free, but there ended up being a nice little letter on my seat," he joked with reporters. "I kind of knew what it was. I opened it up and it notified me that I got fined."
This is just the second financial penalty of Carter's 11-year NFL career, the first and only other having come in 2002 when he was a member of the San Francisco 49ers.
"But that was a late hit," he was quick to point out. "I'll take credit for that one. That was pretty bad. It was like one thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three and boom. Same fine, different year."
The fine, he said, won't make him think twice the next time he steps on the field, but he does intend to appeal.
Adams' mark?
Defensive back
"It's been going well," he began. "I'm thankful, blessed for my situation, blessed to be here in this organization. I'm very happy. Just been studying and learning as much as I can."
Does he think he has a chance to be activated on Sunday?
"Well, I'm going to work. I'm going to work hard," he responded. "Whatever the coaches decide, then, that's what I'll do. But I'm going to get ready for Buffalo. My body feels good. I feel rejuvenated … I'll be prepared.
"There's some terminology that's different, but I'm getting used to it. My teammates, my coaches, they're all helping me out."

Electric triangle
this wiki
The Electric Triangle is an instrument that Is quite peculiar. It is the musical "triangle" with electricity either flowing through it (which would make it almost impossible to play unless the musician was wearing rubber gloves!), or hooked up to an amplifier (which wouldn't be too hard, but it would take some creativity to do!).
Occasionally, people would die, so the battery-powered triangle was created. It allowed the same sounds to be made, but could be played without gloves without causing death, as the current was not as strong. It was also portable, which made it accessable to buskers, who didn't always have a source of power available.
Please do not confuse this for an object that does not exist. It did exist once in an episode of The Fairly Odd Parents so therefore it is real and cannot be made into a joke at all whatsoever.

Why We Love Darren Criss: A Fangirl's Letter
Dear Darren Everett Criss,
You probably already know this, but it's all going to be written down here anyway. We here at Fanpop, well, we love you. We love you for being able to go onstage with nothing but a keyboard and microphone and get every girl in the crowd to scream uncontrollably. We love you for being human enough to forget the lyrics to a song and not being afraid to admit it. We love the fact that you can laugh at yourself when you make a mistake, and the way that you sometimes talk to yourself in third person. We love how you are so gifted in music and can turn a song about skinny jeans, getting drunk, and motel sex into an incredibly heart-wrenching and soul-filled melody. We love the way that you can take part in creating something so wonderful as A Very Potter Musical and add to the joy of millions of adoring Potterheads. We love that you make an even better Harry Potter than Daniel Radcliffe or any other person that would try to play the part. We love that you are a part of the greatest team on earth: Team Starkid. We love how you can take something as simple as a pair of hot pink wayfarers and turn them into a symbol of self expression and loving yourself. We love the way you always seem to take control of whatever situation life puts you in and come out a stronger, more interesting person. We love how your gorgeous hazel eyes light up when you are singing, and the way that you can't seem to sit still when you are playing the piano or giving an interview. We love how you use your hands to talk, and that you do adorable things like ride a bike around The Ellen Degeneres Show and don war paint for Coachella. We love how you can look amazingly hot whether you have a buzz cut, an unruly Harry Potter fro, or a dapper Dalton Academy hairstyle. We love that you have a love of Disney songs and sing them whenever you get a chance. We love that fact that you aren't afraid to play a controversial role as a gay teen on Glee, and that you do so with such amazing talent. Most of all, we love that you have taught every single one of your fans that being themselves is the greatest thing anyone could ever do. Thank you, Darren Everett Criss, for being an inspiration to us all and for kicking ass as you do it. Love, Your adoring fans. |

What is Vibration Training?
Vibration training is not a new concept and is not a fad! This type of training has been around for over 30 years: it was originally researched as a treatment for osteoporosis and muscle wastage in cosmonauts. As the trials progressed, it was found to influence the body in many other ways. Vibration training can do something for everyone. It works the body in four totally separate ways to get health benefits that would normally only arise from working for hours in the gym. On a VibroGym, this only takes 12 minutes

Today is the day when I have decided to write some lessons on how to draw - better - for beginners. Inspired by Chef Auguste Gusteau, I will call this lesson series 'Anyone Can Draw' (ripoff!! - do I care?). For not wasting any more time, let start our first lesson.
This is the most important thing before we start a drawing. Tell me, how on earth can we draw a cat if we do not know how a cat should look like? We think that we know a cat, but then when we draw, it end up looks like a dog. How can that happen? Less observation.
This is what an artist must train. To observe and see in details (eventhough we just want to make a simple drawing). When we look at a cat, we should not look only at its general feature. See the eyes, the nose, the paws, its behaviour etc. Memorizing our observations is (for me) dangerous because it might lead to a false memory. So if we have a poor memory, sketch it in our sketchbook. (after all, who in this world got a good memory?)
At the time when we're fully understand our subject, then we can start to draw and it is up to us to stylize the drawing.
So next time we know, if we draw a cat that looks like a dog, that doesn't mean that we cannot draw. We just lack of observation! (and it sometimes happen to me too) So until next time.

Worse Than Finding a Worm in Apple: Half a Worm
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Investing should not be dictated by fashion. Running a public company is not like owning a private one.
These are the only facts that matter concerning Apple (AAPL - Get Report), which our Rocco Pendola and the rest are once again going bi-polar on.
I wrote once, at Seeking Alpha, that the solution to Apple is simply to divide by 10, and it remains true. Apple was once $700, now it's $450. Split it 10-1, as I suggested, and you have a $70 stock going to $45.
This happens all the time. It's part of the ebb and flow that makes the stock market so much fun. Sectors go into fashion, pass out of fashion, then return in predictable patterns. This is why technical analysis works.
Of course you don't need a class in stochastics to see the patterns. Right now entertainment stocks such as Disney (DIS) are hot, while 3-D printing companies including 3D Systems (DDD) are not. Cloud companies that produce services such as Google (GOOG) are hot, as our Chris Ciaccia notes, , while companies that produce products including Apple (and Dell (DELL), Nokia (NOK), Microsoft (MSFT), HP (HPQ), and on and on) are not. These assumptions will change. They will reverse. We will all suddenly realize that we have always been at war with Eastasia, or have never been at war with Eastasia (for you fans of George Orwell's 1984.) I'm old enough to remember when the Los Angeles Clippers were a bad team and the Lakers a great one. So Apple will announce something cool. Maybe it will be a TV, as Rocco Pendola believes. Maybe it will be a watch, as Business Week suggests. Maybe it will be a cheap iPhone for China, as Apple Insider has written. Maybe it will be all three -- a cheap TV-watch for China! Point is, when something does get announced, all the things that looked wrong with Apple will look right, everyone will pile in and the escalator will go up again. I don't see any reason to panic. Now, as to the second point, David Einhorn buying a big hunk of Apple shares and then trying to bully Apple CEO Tim Cook into giving more cash to shareholders. Reuters reports a judge sees a "likelihood of success" concerning Einhorn's legal gambit, as The Huffington Post reports , which is not at all the same thing as saying Einhorn is going to win his case.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I was playing Fiora against a teemo and riposte his basic attack which blocked his attack, but it still applied his poison. This is most definitely an error as if the attack is blocked the poison shouldn't be applied it is an unofficial nerf to her intended ability. This is the first instance ive noticed of this happening, but ill look to see if any other champions have aa similar effect and update it.

This is intended functionality. Riposte parrys and ripostes the attack damage, but any additional effects of the attack (stuns, poison, red buff etc) will still impact your champion.

Laser and Motion
Name: Clarence L. Status: student Age: 17 Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 9/12/2004
If you have a laser in space (assuming no friction at all), and you turn it on, would the laser move backward?
I will take a stab at this one. If I understand your question, if you fire a laser in space (with no friction) will there be a recoil effect, or will the laser device move opposite the laser beam?
I would say no since the laser is emitting light in the form of photons which have no mass. F=ma with m=0 gives F=0.
Bob Hartwell
Dear Clarence,
Yes! The light emitted by the laser has energy and momentum. A force is needed to push the light in the forward direction. Then, by Newton's 2nd Law, (For every Action, there is an equal and opposite reaction), the light must exert a reaction force on the laser.
The force, however, is not very large. A 1 watt output laser, which is more powerful than you would find in student laboratories, emits 1 joule of light per second. By a calculation using a little relativity and mechanics, this would exert a force of 3.3 E-9 N = 0,0000000033 N. = 1.2E-8 oz = 0.000000012 oz. After one year, the laser will have accelerated to a speed of about 0.1 m/s or about 4 inches/second. Not at all like the Starship Enterprise!
Best, Dick Plano
Absolutely. But it is weak.
A 1-billion-watt laser is a nice size, a bit more power than our biggest electrical power plants. By E=mc2, (c =3x10^8 meter/second), it would emit light weighing 10^-8 kilograms/second. Because that mass is thrown at 3x10^8 m/sec, by F=mv, the thrust is 3 Newtons, or 0.3 kilogram-weight, or 0.7 pound-force. Not much thrust for a giant nuclear power-plant. Accelerates itself somewhat slowly.
A solar sail which catches sunlight of equal wattage and reflects it backwards, would generate twice the thrust. One unit of thrust for stopping the light, and another for starting it backwards.
The laser only starts the light. And it pays the full energy price of generating the photon. A mirror doesn't have to.
Spacecraft propulsion using on-board lasers would only be worth doing once one has a top-notch energy source, like anti-matter with near-100% conversion efficiency, and the need to accelerate to near light-speed, and no need to do it very fast.
