JUNEAU — The Alaska Senate on Monday got closer to having state statutes reflect what remains illegal after Alaska voters legalized limited recreational marijuana last year.
Senators voted 17-3 to pass the bill, which outlines crimes for possessing more than 1 ounce of marijuana, the threshold voters approved last November for personal use by adults.
It changes the crimes for possession of larger amounts of marijuana, including making it a felony to possess more than 16 ounces of marijuana, and also makes it illegal to deliver marijuana for sale.
JUNEAU — Lawmakers are attempting to fast-track a bill so the state won't have to help pay for $59 million in school bonds in Alaska's largest district.
The Senate on Wednesday approved a measure that would retroactively halt the state's practice of partially reimbursing municipalities for school bonds issued after Jan. 1, 2015. If the bill passes, the state would resume reimbursements for new bonds beginning in July 2020 at a lower rate.
Anchorage voters on April 7 will decide the multimillion-dollar bond package.
JUNEAU — U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan on Monday said fighting federal overreach and pushing for a continued military presence in Alaska are among his priorities.
Sullivan made his comments in addressing a joint session of the state Legislature. Such addresses are tradition among Alaska's U.S. senators, and this was the first for Sullivan, a Republican who won election last November.
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — A Senate committee has advanced a bill prioritizing personal use fisheries.
Senate State Affairs heard public testimony Tuesday mostly in support of committee chair Bill Stoltze's bill to prioritize personal use fisheries over sport and commercial fisheries when there is a management concern. Subsistence would remain the highest use.
The committee heard from residents of Fairbanks and Chugiak who were in support of the bill, as well as one Kasilof resident who opposed it.
JUNEAU, Alaska — Lawmakers heard mixed responses to a bill intended to prioritize personal use fishing.
Republican Sen. Bill Stoltze bill would direct the Department of Fish and Game to prioritize state fisheries for personal use when restrictions are necessary — putting personal use ahead of commercial or sport fishing. It would not supersede subsistence fishing. Advocates from Fairbanks and the Matanuska-Susitna Borough regions testified in support of the bill during a Tuesday Senate State Affairs Committee hearing. A Cook Inlet commercial fisherman said he opposed it.
JUNEAU — A state Department of Law official told concerned lawmakers Thursday that regulating marijuana shouldn't result in federal prosecution.
Sen. Anna MacKinnon, R-Eagle River, said during a Senate Finance Committee hearing that she had heard from members of the public who thought that legislators were violating federal law if they implemented the ballot initiative legalizing marijuana.
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — A Senate committee has advanced legislation that would eliminate daylight saving time and allow for consideration of another time zone in Alaska.
The bill would exempt Alaskans from advancing their clocks each spring. It would also direct the governor to ask the U.S. Department of Transportation to consider moving part or all of Alaska to Pacific time.
Sen. Anna MacKinnon originally proposed the bill to end daylight saving time in Alaska and introduced the amendment to consider another time zone.
JUNEAU — A House committee is trying to determine how much pot can be grown at one house.
The House Community and Regional Affairs Committee will consider a 12-plant limit for each house as part of its bill addressing municipalities' role in regulating marijuana.
The voter initiative allows an individual to possess up to six plants, three of which can be mature.
JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Alaska lawmakers have advanced a bill that would require school districts to include American constitutionalism in their coursework.
The House Education Committee moved Rep. Wes Keller's bill Friday.
The bill would require that school districts include the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, U.S. Constitution, Articles of Confederation and the Federalist Papers in their curriculums. It does not require specific testing. Keller, a Republican, has called the bill a soft mandate.
JUNEAU — Alaska on Tuesday became the third U.S. state to legalize marijuana. But the historic day passed with little public acknowledgement in a state with a savvy marijuana culture that has seen varying degrees of legal acceptance of the drug for 40 years.
Supporters said the day was a milestone, comparing it to the end of Prohibition. But unlike in Colorado and Washington state, there were no street parties and public smoking displays in Alaska's biggest cities.

Picked up the car at our friends, the Meadors. Hitting the road for Atlanta. Wow, it's been a whirlwind expedition! Feels like we've been gone for months.

Hitachi 52' question
A friend of mine is offering me a 52" Hitachi TV for free, says it needs minor repair. This is what he told me happened: The picture started going dim, and he discovered a bunch of dust inside it. With the tv still playing, he got the cute idea to blow the dust out of it. The tv shut down, and he mentioned something about a light coming on to indicate a problem. Does this make any sense to anyone? Should I let this one pass me by, or is it an inexpensive repair? I'm thinking a static discharge problem. The tv is only a couple of years old. Ideas?
Hitachi is usually a very good set. But, your symptom is almost non-existant and hearsay at best.
I would first, check the back of the set and see when it was made. A "couple" of years can be anything from 5-10 years old. I suspect that the set is old.
Free Service on a TV, even if it was given to you is highly unlikly.
Call a service shop in your area and get a price for an estimate.
Good luck,

I found the cutest little woodburner!
What do you people who know these things think of this one? Need to have a back up to heat a room if/when the power goes out in the winter. Vermont Castings Aspen Wood Stove. If I read it right, it would provide heat, a bit of light and I could heat up a can of soup on it?? The price didn't scare me although I have no idea what a little stove will cost. And then I'll still need a hearth and duct to the outside. What else? Some kind of backer board behind it? How much will I end up spending, start to finish?
Here is a link that might be useful: Vermont Castings Aspen Wood Stove
Who is going to install it? I surely hope it's going to be done by a professional. There are clearance guidelines that must be met, so placing it directly against a wall may not be possible.
You will need more than a "duct" to the outside, you will need a chimney. And if you live in a cold climate, you will need a chimney that will warm up fast, so a double wall system may be needed.
But carefully look into Vermont Castings. They USED to be among the absolute best stoves out there. But the company has been sold so many times lately, the quality has gone into the toilet. Even stove shops here in Vermont aren't selling them until they can be sure they won't have to go out on a regular basis for service.
Christopherh's warning about current Vermont Castings products should be heeded. The Jotul 602 stove is very similar in appearance (so similar I wonder if the VC Aspen is a direct copy)and would be a much better choice in the same price range.
As christopherh also wrote, you're going to need to connect to a Class A chimney, either masonry or triple wall (usually) stainless steel. If one of these does not already exist, the installation cost for one would be many times the stove price - triple wall runs about $30 per foot, I believe. You will also have to meet the relevant local/state code standards for a hearth and clearance from all combustable surfaces.

Thread: The Artist's Reading List
December 12th, 2010 #61
I would like to recommend this book:
Though composition is entirely up to how the artist interprets it, this book is incredible as a starting point for beginners with composition "rules" and general tips on what makes pictures you see in animation, fine arts, and illustration work or not. The book is 400+ pages long with a ton of information. My only problem is that it can get chaotic (it tends to refer to information many chapters before which makes me always rewind back since I tend to forget what was stated) but overall, this book is great.
I believe http://parkablogs.com/ has a review up and he was pretty fond of it too. I recommend this book to everyone.

I think what I like best about it (other than "oooh! shiny!") is how well Gurney explains stuff.
He has a knack for explaining fairly complex ideas in a few paragraphs where most people would have taken a page or ten..
I like that it's divided into tiny little chapters, short attention span types can go bit by bit, or you can just plow through the whole thing then refer to it as needed.
I think most art graduates could learn a lot from it but I think a smart high schooler could follow it too.
It's very plainly written, conversational really. It keeps the science / physics / optics stuff to the minimum needed to make the point, if you can watch an episode of "MythBusters" without going "eh, what?" you can understand this.
Yeah, good book, probably the best I've seen on the subject.
Don't be fooled by the cover btw, it's not about painting dinosaurs.
If you have some art instruction behind you and a shelf full of books, you will already know some of this, for me the value was the "fill in the missing bits that I never quite understood until now", if you're just starting out, you probably need to get this.

Just ordered 'Color and Light' today. It seems to be getting some good feedback. I found 'Imaginative Realism' very good although some of the reference techniques were not suited to work with quick turnarounds.
December 31st, 2010 #64
Color and Light should be on everyones shelf, whether you are a novice or pro.
I think it is the best book on the subject. He explains everything from a working artists point of view and uses his work and the work of famous artists to illustrate it. Buy it from amazon for around sixteen bucks, less than most people spend at a coffee shop in a week.

Other than Vilppu's drawing manual, does anybody have any suggestion for books which discuss or treat in detail Gesture Drawing?
January 12th, 2011 #67
Check out the earlier post about Drawn to Life by Walt Stanchfield. Originally written for animators, but collected for animators and general artists to learn from, you pretty much have two volumes dedicated to gesture drawing. There's more discussed than gestures, but that's the bulk of the books.

Really looking forward to working through it.

I second Animals Real and Imagined by Terryl Whitlatch and third (fourth? fifth?)Color and Light by James Gurney. I just received the former a few days ago and it is an incredibly inspirational resource. Gurney's book is on the way but I had the pleasure of hearing a talk he gave on a lot of the principals he covers in the book and it was invaluable.

Quick question - I've been studying off Color and Light (James Gurney) over the last few weeks and I'm wondering how much pre-requisite knowledge or other foundations that this particular book builds on that were explored in Imaginative realism? Will it be worth it to get that volume to help enhance studies through the second book?

It covers, among other things
Working Spaces
Gurneys choice of materials
Sources of inspiration
Tips on sourcing models, clothing, props
Gurneys creative process
Detailing the methods and benefits of tone sketches, research, thumbnails, angles, dynamics
Quite a bit of info on composition and leading the eye to points of interest
Brief sections on vehicle design, city designs,
The use of maquettes
Tips throughout on making your world/creations believable and where to find existing references for the fantastic.
Also filled with anecdotes and recollections from Gurney as to how he tackled various problems and experiences he's had that came with the paintings. All of it fascinating and inspiring.
I finished the book just wanting to read more from the man.

Hi guys,
I have enjoyed reading this thread, so thank you to all who contributed. I wonder if anyone could give me some suggestions for books about environment/landscape illustration (digital, traditional or both). I know there are some fantastic environment artists here and I would love to know what is on their bookshelves! I already own a lot of the great drawing and life drawing books discussed here but I haven't seen much along the lines of the above.
So far I am planning to buy the two Gurney books along with Dream Worlds by Hans Bacher. I am also considering this book (Fantasy Landscapes & Cityscapes by Rob Alexander). If anyone has an opinion on it, or alternative suggestions, I'm all ears.
Thank you!

I have studied the books on Noah's original list quite extensively, and IMHO they are the best books currently available on traditional drawing and painting. Some additions might be Classical Drawing Atelier and Classical Painting Atelier by Juliette Aristides, as well as the reprinted Bargue Drawing Course by Charles Bargue and Jean Leon Gerome.
Here are some books which may or may not have been mentioned yet. These books have been fundamental in my development as a draughtsman and a designer.

Whirlpool sidekicks
Hi, I haven't been here for years. But now I need your help again! My Whirlpool Sidekicks have been installed for 8-9 years. Now the refrigerator has died. I'm kind of stuck getting a new Sidekick since that is how my kitchen is designed. However, the new style doesn't match my existing Sidekick Freezer. Does anyone know if the doors are interchangeable so I can put my existing door on the new unit? TIA!
So your first step after buying a new refrigerator will be to invalidate its warranty?
Ah, perhaps a change of strategy is called for?
Option One - fix old refrigerator - probably uneconomic.
Option Two - buy a complete new set. Yes, that should work.
Ten years is getting on into Neverland for large appliances these days. Try to get a good deal on a new pair.
That's a very good point. I actually ended up ordering both units from Gochnauer's for the best price out there. It's where I ordered my Fisher Paykel appliances at the time of my remodel. We decided it was better to just get both rather than risk a new model coming out that didn't match as soon as my freezer conked :P
The old refrigerator is irreparable, due to a leak within the sealed system. So repair wasn't possible.I just hope I can sell the freezer for something.
Thank you!

Mayan Face
See in slideshow:Multicultural Activities for Second Grade
According to some, the world should have ended on December 21, 2012. Celebrate our continued existence with this historical art project that serves as a great starting point for an investigation into the ancient Mayan culture.
What You Need:
- Paper plate
- Pencil
- Colored pencils
- Picture of a Mayan calendar
What You Do:
- Browse the Internet with your child to get the facts on the Mayans and their special calendar. Why do some people believe the Mayans predicted the end of our world? Explain the difference between literal interpretations versus symbolic ones. Should the Mayan's prediction be taken literally? How does your child think such a prediction could be possible?
- Now it's your child's chance to create a little history of her own. Set the paper plate beside the picture of the Mayan calendar.
- Help her use a pencil to sketch out a Mayan face on the paper plate.
- Once she's satisified, have her use colored pencils to color in the calendar. She can keep it brown or gray like the Mayans or she can mix it up and add whatever colors she desires.
- After she's finished, she can hang up her Mayan face anywhere she wants.

Just pick two units (for instance mph and km/h), write your number (for instance 88) and the result instantly appears: 88 mph = 141.62 km/h! You no longer need to remember complicated conversions (or do you prefer having to remember that 1 mph = 1.609344 km/h and to calculate 1.609344 x 88?) ! And there is also a "swap" button in case you now want to convert km/h to mph.
Though Converter is one of the most intuitive unit converter on Android, it is also very powerful. Not only will you find everyday units such as Fahrenheit and Celsius but you can also use scientific units such as Kelvin and Planck temperature (I know you have never heard of this one but what if you find yourself face to face with it ?).
And what happens when you know the name of an unit but you don't know in which category it is ? Will you look for it in every category in order to find it ? No, Converter makes things easier : just hit the "search" button, write the name of your unit, and here you are !
It is also customizable and you can easily make it yours. Firstly, you can easily choose between a dark theme and a light one (only if you have Android 3.0 or newer, sorry for the others). You can also choose the number of decimals to display. And what's more, Converter has a good memory : it will always remember the last category you have used and, for each category, the last conversion you have done.
Converter is and will always be free, open-source and ad free !
Here are all the categories you can find :
- Angle
- Angular velocity
- Area
- Base
- Currency with online updates
- Data (rate)
- Data (size)
- Density
- Energy
- Frequency
- Fuel
- Length
- Mass
- Pressure
- Speed
- Temperature
- Time
- Torque
- Volume
- And more coming soon !
If you have any suggestion or if you want to report an issue or if you want to download an older version of the app, just send me an email at email@example.com.
Thank you Sadettin Kalenderoğlu for the Turkish translation !

Unit Converter
⏎ Conversion of units is the conversion between different units of measurement for the same quantity, typically through multiplicative conversion factors. There are many different unit converters available for you, but this one has multiple advantages.
• Eye-appealing graphics
• Well-designed conversion chart
• User-friendly interface
• Moveable to SD card
• Round-based on decimal places
• Commonly used abbreviations for units such as cm for centimeters, km for kilometer, in for inches etc.
• Both Imperial and Metric conversion
Another great feature of this converter is that it is not overwhelmed with thousand different unit categories but it actually contains those most commonly used ones. If you want to convert feet to meters, you can do that quite easily without too much searching for the length converter category. This toolbox has 14 different categories including length, mass (weight converter), volume and area as the most popular ones that you can use to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit or to check how many pounds there are in 33 kilograms.
Other categories here are Speed, Fuel consumption and Time Converter that go hand in hand and are excellent when on road trip. Angle, power, pressure and force converter are put in this app for the more advanced converters, such as physics students or other scientist who got tired of manual calculators. Digital Storage or data and Digital Imaging categories are cool extras.
If you think there is an important unit category missing from this app, please inform us ASAP!
★★★★★Things you didn't know★★★★★
The system of imperial units or the imperial system is the system of units first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824, which was later refined and reduced. The system came into official use across the British Empire.
The metric system is an internationally agreed decimal system of measurement that was originally based on the mètre and the kilogramme introduced by France in 1799. Over the years, the definitions of the metre and kilogram have been refined and the metric system has been extended to incorporate many more units. The term is now often used as a synonym for "SI" or the "International System of Units"—the official system of measurement in almost every country in the world.

Breeders Going Global For 'Title TK'
Resurrected alt-rockers the Breeders have announced a host of European and North American tour dates running through mid-August in support of the new record.

The group is playing the All Tomorrow's Parties festival this week in the U.K. and will take time out for a one-off gig tomorrow (April 24) at London's tiny Water Rats club in the King's Cross district.

That segment of the tour includes four consecutive dates at New York's Bowery Ballroom, where the group played two February shows during a short promotional tour.
"Title TK" is the band's first album since 1993's "Last Splash," which peaked at No. 33 on The Billboard 200 in February 1994 and featured the single "Cannonball," a No. 2 hit on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart.

A recap of the 2015 TCM Film Festival.
NBC's American Odyssey attempts to woo viewers who have given up on the networks for cable but it misses its mark.
"The Secret of Nimh" contains that absolute rarity among feature-length animated cartoons, an interesting premise. It is: What if a group of laboratory animals were injected with an experimental drug that made them as intelligent as humans? There have been smart animals in the movies for years, of course, but they were always playing quasi-humans in a universe where the real humans were seen mostly from the knees down. Now here's a story that concerns itself with the problem of being a rat and having a superior intelligence.
Although the idea was what intrigued me about "The Secret of Nimh", the movie itself represents a philosophical statement for its makers. The animators who made this film were previously employed at the Walt Disney Studios, where they were heralded as the "new breed," groomed to replace the veterans who started with Walt himself and were all past retirement age. But halfway through production of the most recent Disney animated feature, "The Fox and the Hound", a group of new breeders walked out and, led by director Don Bluth, set up their own shop at MGM.
Their complaint was that Disney was cutting corners on painstaking traditional animating methods. Their vow was to make a non-Disney movie in the old Disney tradition. The main difference between traditional Disney animation and cheaper, newer methods is in the areas of body movements and backgrounds. Bluth and his followers wanted to make a movie in which the characters would have lots of body language (not just moving lips and rolling eyes), and in which the backgrounds would be detailed and interesting, not just repetitive roll-bys. In "The Secret of Nimh", they have succeeded in reproducing the marvelous detail and depth of the Disney classics. This is a good-looking, interesting movie that creates a little rodent world right under the noses of the indifferent local humans. The story is perhaps a little complicated at first, especially for younger viewers, but a flashback helps make things clear, and then the adventure begins.
We learn that a group of rats and mice was injected with the secret potion in the laboratories of the National Institute of Mental Health, and that they quickly became so smart that they were able to escape from "Nimh" and set up a society in a barnyard. Then they were faced with an ethical dilemma: Should they continue to freeload off of the local humans, stealing grains, supplies, and even electricity or should they set off into the wilderness to establish a new society of their own? This larger story is counterpointed with the saga of a mousy little widow named Mrs. Brisby, whose sick child is threatened by the approach of the tilling machine.
"The Secret of Nimh" is an artistic success. It looks good, moves well, and delights our eyes. It is not quite such a success on the emotional level, however, because it has so many characters and involves them in so many different problems that there's nobody for the kids in the audience to strongly identify with. I guess you could say that the Disney tradition lives, but that the Disney magic still remains elusive.

Metrics Motivation
Typical metrics are used to predict an outcome by comparing plans to actual results. They are objective and don't influence what you are trying to measure. Biased metrics, on the other hand, are a valuable tool for deliberately altering behavior to improve the performance of a group. Find out how biased metrics can be used on your projects to pinpoint problems in specific areas and to influence people to fix them.

Although you are politely asked to respect the stones by not climbing on them, this particular reveller ignores the request, but makes a superb image. Sunrise through the stones 2003
sensesmaybenumbed added this photo to her favorites. (98 months ago)
Nice picture but what muppet decided to climb up there!
blaaahdy hippies!
I was there that year - there were a few people dancing on the stones I think. Wouldn't have been that easy to get up there - would be worth the effort for the view though.

composting weeds
Canadian thistle has invaded a large pile of aged horse bedding (mostly sawdust and straw with manure). I wanted to use this in the garden. I can pull the thistle but of course the extensive root network is still there (if you know thistle). Question is, will hot composting the bedding with grass clippings kill the thistle root? Or would spreading it out and solarizing it with clear plastic? Or do I just give up on it? Thanks.
ps I'm back on the list with a new email address -- missed the postings for a while and am catching up. Good to be back.

I'm a little reluctant to say this because it COULD come back and cause trouble for you, Bob, but I have very little concern about what roots I put in the compost pile. First let me qualify that by saying roots not seeds. Weeds that have gone to seed go in the trash can. And, secondly, altho' I've got thistle problems, they aren't Canadian. It's the Italian thistles sneaking out of the neighbor's raspberry patch that end up in the vegetable garden. I don't think that they are GREATLY different in the tenacity of the roots but I could be wrong.
Even, dare I say, quack grass roots go in the compost as long as it is early in the season and I know that they are going to be buried under a few feet of material over a long period of time. And by long period of time, I mean 18 months or longer. You see, I make use of one season's compost while the other one sits. I remove weeds that show up on top of that pile but otherwise it just composts from the end of one growing season (about October) until it is utilized in April or May (18-19 months down the road). WhatÂs on the very bottom of that pile has been there for 2 years.
Besides plant material from the garden, IÂm adding every peeling from the kitchen, manure, and garden soil as the first season rolls along. No, I'm not trying to compost in any "hot" fashion. Seedlings will show up when it's used, usually squash and pumpkin but not much else.
It's a method (among others) that I have used for a good 10 years but tenacious roots need to buried deep and any plants that show up on the surface of the pile during those 18 months must to be pulled.
