White Earth Reservation is the largest Indian Reservation in Minnesota, with a section of its 1,093 square miles lying in Becker County. Home to the White Earth Nation, the Anishinaabe people continue fighting to keep their deep cultural roots intact while moving into a fast-paced, technology driven world. This sometimes proves to be a tough "fancy dance" to master, as today's Native American youth engage the world around them. Unfortunately, for some on the Reservation, that world can also include struggles with poverty, academic achievement gaps, domestic violence and substance abuse p
Minnesota could be seeing an earlier start to the big fishing season this year. "This is it -- this is the start of the madness," said Chris Denardo, as he helps his crew from J&K Marine prepare the docks and lifts on Little Detroit. The crew is out much earlier this year because of a record-breaking early ice out, and the jump start could be a necessary one for them, as some legislators are pushing for the walleye opener to be pulled back one week early. The big day is currently set for May 12, but if the house-approved proposal also passes the senate and the governor, it would be moved
The Detroit Lakes QWERTY robotics team is back in town after the Minnesota State Northstar regional FIRST competition at the U of M (FIRST meaning "For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology"), and despite the fact that they did not go on to nationals like they did last year, they say it was incredible year. The team, which designed a robot to compete in a basketball game, received recognition for Best Named Bot ("The Tank") and Best Designed Bot. Despite the team nearly tripling in size since last year's state championship, bigger and better didn't translate into a win this
Nearly everybody has at least one book in their lives that has changed or deeply affected them in one way or another. For 13 Detroit Lakes eighth graders, those changes were not only articulated in letters they wrote to the authors of those books, but now they're being recognized on the state level. Letters About Literature is a national competition that Detroit Lakes eighth-graders have been competing in for three years now. "It's a contest where they write letters to an author of a book that's had an impact in their lives," said Middle School Language Arts Teacher Pam Daly, who says ou
There's just something about a church carnival that can bring people in from all over a community. Folks at the Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Frazee are hoping that's once again the case as they prepare for their ninth annual Family Carnival on Saturday, April 14. The event goes from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Becker County Sheriff's Office and the Becker County Environmental Office are teaming up to tackle two problems with one solution. A pharmaceutical receptacle now sits in the sheriff's department as a way for citizens to safely dispose of their unused prescription, over-the-counter and narcotic medications. The drop off box is in a locked room at the sheriff's department, but it's available seven days a week, 24-hours a day and is free to the public. "It's built the same way as a night depository at a bank," said Becker County Sheriff Tim Gordon.
Growing up in Detroit Lakes, Chris Allen remembers occasionally getting to go to Godfather's Pizza. "It was a big deal -- I sat right up there on the balcony," he said, pointing up where old woodwork within the historic Graystone building splits the top and bottom level of the pizza shop. Godfather's has been a pepperoni-topped icon since the early 1980s, proving itself a cheesy mainstay of Detroit Lakes throughout the years. But now, Chris Allen (a 1990 DL graduate) is all grown up and is once again hanging around Godfather's. That's because the entrepreneur now owns the place, along
Two people were injured in an accident on Highway 34 and County Road 25, about two miles east of Detroit Lakes Friday afternoon. According to the Minnesota Highway Patrol, 81-year-old Alden Tyge of Detroit Lakes was traveling eastbound on Highway 34 at around 2 p.m.
The local economy is showing signs of strengthening -- that was the message at the Economic Development Summit in Detroit Lakes Thursday. The event, which was held at M State, was a chance for local business and program leaders to gather for networking and to hear about the latest projects happening in the region. Bill Blazer, senior vice president of public affairs and business development for the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, told the crowd of nearly 100, that while the economy is still "shaky," it's better than it was last year when it was "uncertain." "The good news for this region
It's almost time to start clowning around again --the Jose Cole Circus is right around the corner. The event is set for Monday, April 9 at the Kent Freeman Sports Arena with one 7 p.m. show. Like it has been since 1983, the Jose Cole Circus is being sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, council 3166, which includes members from Detroit Lakes, Callaway, Lake Park and St.

Got a predatory towing horror story?
Over at his blog, Sean Cruz - an aide to Senator Avel Gordly - is tracking the movement of the various predatory towing bills moving through the legislature.
People are coming from all over the state to tell their predatory towing horror stories to the Committee, chaired by Senator Floyd Prozanski. Senator Gordly also serves on the Commerce Committee.
The extra good news is that the Department of Justice is looking at each of those towing horror stories and opening new case files on the incidents.
If you have a towing horror story of your own, NOW is the time to send it in.
The towing industry is seeing the handwriting on the wall, and in workgroup meetings has conceded that regulation is needed, that these predators have gone way, waaaaayyyy too far.
Change is gonna come.
In addition to SB 116 from the DOJ, Senator Gordly has four bills addressing predatory towing:
SB 388 requires towers to provide printed rate sheets to vehicle owners who arrive to find a tower in some degree of lawful possession of their vehicle (or so they claim!).
SB 389 requires landlords contracting with tow companies to provide tenants with printed information detailing the actual potential costs of being towed from the property.
SB 390 requires that a landlord provide 24 hours notice to a tenant before having the tenant's car towed.
SB 431 is an outright ban on patrol towing. This legislation will require property owners or their agent to be present and sign the towing invoice when ordering a vehicle towed without the vehicle owner's knowledge or permission. SB 431 will take the decision-making on these tows away from a driver working on commission, which is the root cause of most of these predatory practices.
Read the rest over at Blogotical Sean. Discuss over there.

Lower Antelope Slot Canyon
Lower Antelope Slot Canyon
While Lower Antelope Slot Canyon is not quite as spectacular as Upper Antelope Slot Canyon, it is definitely worth visiting (photographing) - and it offeres some advantages of its own. The first major advantage is the lack of people.
Perhaps the second advantage to this slot canyon is the 4 hours of unattended exploration provided by the photographer pass. Simply drive up to the entrance to the slot canyon and ask for this pass. You will be escorted to the slot entrance and then have up to 4 hours to shoot as desired. The slower pace of shooting in this canyon was especially appreciated. And the landscape down there is incredible.

Conker: Live & Reloaded
help with bullet colors PLEASE???
I DL the save with flamefire and purple streak cuz i cant unlock them due to XBL shutting down :( and my bullets arent different. is there a reason why that I missed? or are those not for bullet color, I thought they were.
I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but I mention the bullet colors in the help thread.
Lindsey Buckingham's voice is like the cherry on top of an ice cream sundae. Fantastic!
Also - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDVGCgklN3o&translated=1
Basically what Im asking is, why arent the unlocked xbox live features working from a save I downloaded using action replay?
^ Don't know. Maybe because the Live unlockables are stored server side, so you have to access Live to unlock them... dunno.
An action Replay should do the trick either way...
I read somewhere the Live unlockables only work online (as well as being acquired there).
But regarding this, can you 'rank up' offline (sans upgrades)? As in, get the different chevrons and stars next to your username relative to CP level? Or are all offline modes a one-off and do not store any progression whatsoever...?

New Tick-Borne Disease Found in Kansas
Posted by janegwalker in Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases on January 9, 2015
This past summer a Kansas man was infected with a fast-moving illness that took his life after 10 days in the hospital. Otherwise a healthy man, doctors tried treating him with a series of antibiotics that unfortunately didn't work. After much research, a new microbe has been found and named the Bourbon virus.
No, this virus has nothing to do with the Bourbon drink, but instead is named after the county in which the only known victim lived. The virus was discovered by researchers with the Centers for Disease Control. It's believed that the male farmer was infected through the bite of an infected tick while spending time outdoors.
When the man fell ill, the illness got serious very quickly. The Bourbon virus can cause fever, muscle ache, loss or appetite and can lead to lung and kidney failure. Because it is a virus and not a bacteria, antibiotics didn't help fight the disease.
The patient was tested for tick-borne illnesses but the tests came up negative.
Thee are many more studies that need to be done to get a clear understanding of the Bourbon virus as this is the first known case. Dr. Dana Hawkinson with the University of Kansas Hospital explains: "we have to assume this has been around for some time, and we haven't been able to diagnose it. We suspect there have been milder cases and people have recovered from them, but we don't have a lot of information." (Source.)
Tick-borne diseases can be very serious if not diagnosed and treated properly. If you spend time outdoors in the months ticks are known to be active, it's important to thoroughly check your body for ticks. If you see one, remove it and place in a plastic bag in case you feel it needs to be tested. If you start to feel sick or experiencing any known symptoms, go to a doctor.
At Mosquito Squad, we protect our clients from the nuisance and dangers of ticks with our tick treatments for the yard. We use a combination of our barrier spray and tick tubes to attack the ticks at different stages of their lifecycle, greatly reducing their opportunity to infect homeowners.
If you have questions on tick control for your yard, please contact your local Mosquito Squad office.
Protecting your Dog from the Dangers of Ticks
Posted by janegwalker in Barrier Sprays, Ehrlichiosis, Life cycle of the tick, Lyme disease, Mosquito Squad, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases on September 26, 2014
When you think of ticks, what do you think? Gross? Definitely. Hard to see and detect? You bet. Lyme disease? Absolutely? Paralysis? Probably not. These little buggers can be very dangerous to our beloved pets, and it isn't just Lyme disease and ehrlichiosis, they can cause paralysis too.
My mother and I are dog lovers. That's my man, Wiley, to the right. I'm a sucker for his ears, but I digress. Recently my mom was telling me about a friend who has a dog. Their dog Buster had always been healthy and active, but in a matter of just 5 weeks had lost nearly 30 pounds and wouldn't go on walks. After several tests and visits to the vet, they found the culprit. Ticks. The poor pup had 3 or 4 ticks under his armpit, a very difficult spot to see and check. They were causing the issues.
Ticks, when they aren't noticed and removed quickly can cause paralysis in dogs, and sometimes even humans. Some ticks carry a toxin that is released into their host while feeding. That toxin affects movement control.
It's important that dog owners thoroughly check their dogs for ticks after spending time in areas where ticks are known to live. The toxin may be released after 3 days of attachment. Luckily, when the tick is removed, the symptoms of paralysis will subside. Buster recovered quickly and is back to his normal self.
Ticks checks are an important piece of protecting your pet from tick-borne disease. To check your dog, pet it slowly while applying more pressure than normal. Many times, you will feel a bump that you can then look closely at. Make sure to check their elbows, inside of their legs and in between toes. Those are often ticks favorite hiding spot on a dog.
At Mosquito Squad, we protect pets with our effective tick control. Our tick services include a combination of our barrier spray treatment and tick tubes. The spray eliminates ticks on contact while the tubes get them earlier in their lifecycle.
If you'd like to discuss reducing the number of ticks on your property, please contact your local Mosquito Squad office.
Can Ticks Transmit Disease in Just 10 Minutes?
Posted by janegwalker in Barrier Sprays, Industry News, Life cycle of the tick, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases on August 27, 2014
Ticks, like mosquitoes, are vectors of disease. When feeding, they transmit saliva and bacteria into their host's skin and bloodstream. While Lyme disease may have received the most news in recent years, Rocky Mountain spotted fever can be extremely dangerous and is the most lethal rickettsial disease.
When it comes to transmitting Rocky Mountain, a new study out of Brazil is reporting that ticks don't need as much time as we thought. Current literature states that the disease can be transmitted in 2 to 10 hours, but there are cases when the transmission could take place in just 10 minutes!
Marcelo Labruna of the University of Sao Paulo led the study where ticks were observed feeding on different animals. They found that if ticks had recently fed and then went to feed on another animal, they were able to transmit disease quicker than when they were first feeding.
The study also found that dogs play a primary roll in the spread of Rocky Mountain spotted fever in Brazil (know there as Brazilian fever). The majority of cases in the area are diagnosed in children and women who have little contact with tick habitats. It's most likely that dogs are carrying ticks into the home or yard where they are then attaching to family members, meaning that they have previously fed.
A different type of tick, the wood tick, transmits Rocky Mountain in the US than in Brazil. That could result in different findings when it comes to transmission of the disease. Patrick Leisch, entomologist at the University of Wisconsin, explains that the best way to protect yourself from all tick-borne diseases is to avoid tick habitats, protect yourself properly, and educate yourself on the pest.
At Mosquito Squad, we protect our clients from the nuisance and dangers of ticks with our tick control services. We use a combination of our barrier spray and tick tubes to greatly reduce the tick population on a property. The barrier spray, applied by trained technicians every 2-3 weeks, eliminates adult ticks on contact. Tick tubes are placed on the property twice a year normally and use mice as a vehicle for the tick control product.
If you have questions on how to protect yourself from ticks and the diseases they transmit, please refer to the Centers for Disease control website or call your local Mosquito Squad office.
Are the Tick Population and Weather Temperatures Related?
Posted by janegwalker in Barrier Sprays, Lyme disease, Mosquito barrier spray, Mosquito Control, Mosquito Squad, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases, Uncategorized on July 30, 2014
Ticks. They lurk in hidden places waiting for a potential host to walk by. In the spring and summer, it's best to make a habit of checking yourself and your pets for ticks if you spent any time outdoors. A recent study by the National Center for Atmospheric Research and the Centers for Disease Control evaluated how the tick population is related to weather temperatures.
Ticks thrive in warm weather and their activity rises as temperatures rise over 50 degrees. When there is an above average amount of days over 50 early in the year, the population becomes active earlier and the peak tick season, which typically begins in late May, starts earlier. If there is a lot more precipitation than normal, that will postpone the beginning of the tick season.
The changes in weather also impact ticks through their primary blood host, the field mouse. Mice feed on the vegetation in their habitat. When the summer is exceptionally dry it results in less food for the mice, which means less mouse activity and less ticks.
The study explains that a tick forecast could be created each March after looking at the weather in the first ten weeks of the year, but little can be done to forecast when the end of tick season will be.
Ticks are a common concern for many people. Not only are they a nuisance, but they are also dangerous. Thousands of cases of Lyme disease are reported to the CDC each year and it is impacting more of the county each and every year. If you ever go for walks or hikes in areas where ticks are known to be active, it's important to protect yourself. Wear long loose clothing preferably in light colors so ticks can be spotted. After coming inside make sure to do a thorough tick check of your body to make sure that none are hiding out.
At Mosquito Squad we help our clients protect themselves from ticks and the dangerous illnesses they transmit by protecting their yard. We utilize a combination of our barrier spray treatment and tick tubes when appropriate.
Our traditional mosquito control spray is effective against ticks too. The spray will eliminate adult ticks on contact. We suggest having that spray reapplied every 2-3 weeks depending on your mosquito and tick problem to provide continuous tick control. Additionally, we use tick tubes to eliminate ticks in their earlier stages of development. Tick tubes are placed throughout the property in areas where mice would travel. When the mice find the tube, they take the treated cotton that's inside back to their nests as bedding. Since many nymph ticks get their first blood meal from mice, they are thus eliminated.
If you have questions on how to reduce the tick population on your property, please contact your local Mosquito Squad office.
Where are the Ticks on your Yard?
Posted by janegwalker in Barrier Sprays, Lyme disease, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases on May 21, 2014
Just last fall, we at Mosquito Squad surveyed clients for a better understanding of their concerns with respect to mosquitoes and ticks. With more than 7,000 responses, we found that not only are homeowners worried about ticks and the diseases that they carry, but they also aren't sure where they harbor. Here's a snapshot of our findings:
According to our poll, 72% of clients are concerned or very concerned about ticks and the concern is rising. 61% say that they are more concerned about tick-borne disease, like Lyme disease, this year than last. With rising Lyme numbers in many parts of the country, it isn't surprising that people are troubled by their potential exposure to tick bites.
Although people are worried about ticks, it seems that less know where to look for the little buggers. 35% of our survey responded that they have no idea where ticks are found. Knowing where they are will raise your awareness of their presence and allow you to take some tick control measures.
Ticks are normally found in moist, shady areas and normally avoid areas that are dry and sunny. In simpler terms, they sometimes "hide" preferring high grasses and bushes. Along retaining walls and fences also tend to be good spots to find ticks.
When it comes to protecting yourself from ticks and tick-borne disease, there are steps that you can take on your property to decrease your exposure to ticks:
- Keep your grass short. Ticks love long grasses, so keeping it short will move the ticks away from the open grass areas of your property.
- Clean up your yard trash and debris. Instead of taking those large branches and sticks and putting them in a pile, take them to the dump. Grass clippings, leaves and other yard trash make the perfect place for ticks to hide.
- Create a barrier around areas you know ticks are present. Ticks like to stay hiding, so create a "barrier" around fences, compost piles, etc. For example, lay a perimeter of gravel around your compost pile so ticks stay away from your outdoor living spaces.
At Mosquito Squad, we take tick protection seriously, offering services to our clients to reduce the number of ticks on their property. Our barrier spray, which we recommend be applied every 2-3 weeks, eliminates adult ticks on contact, while tick tubes target ticks in their nymph stage.
May is a month when more of us move our activities outside, but it is also Lyme Disease Awareness Month. Ticks are out and about, so please do a tick check after spending time outdoors.
If you have questions on tick control for your yard, please contact your local Mosquito Squad office.
Are Mice the Perfect Host for Ticks?
Posted by janegwalker in Barrier Sprays, Mosquito Squad, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases, Uncategorized on April 10, 2014
I spend a lot of time outdoors in the spring and summer months and I'm also hyper-aware of the presence of ticks. For such a small animal, the tick can cause some serious damage.
Ticks are vectors, or transmitters, of disease. They infect through their bite and have been known to cause devastating damage to humans, moose and other mammals. One animal that it doesn't seem to impact, however, isn't what you would normally picture as tough: the white-footed mouse.
A new study from Sarah Lawrence University biologist Michelle Hersh studied the relationship between mice and ticks. Mice displayed no apparent negative affects from ticks and the bacteria they carry. And the number of ticks didn't matter either. Even when the mice were hosts to a large number of ticks they didn't seem bothered.
As co-author Richard Ostfeld explains; "they basically thumb their noses at ticks, no matter how many are on them. There is something about these mice that makes them incredibly permissive to infection by the pathogens that make us sick, and also to the ticks that bite them and us." Source.
At Mosquito Squad, we use mice being a super host for ticks to our favor with our backyard tick control service. Knowing that ticks usually get their first blood meal from a mouse, we use mice as a vehicle for our tick treatments.
Tick tubes are filled with cotton that is treated with a tick toxicant and then are placed in areas of the property where mice are known to travel, for example along fence lines and foundation walls. When mice come across the tick tubes, they take the cotton to use as bedding in their nests. The tick control solution rubs off onto the mouse's fur. When the tick goes to feed on the mouse, it ingests the tick control solution, effectively eliminating them.
Tick tubes are usually strategically placed twice a year in spring and late summer/early fall. A tick control professional will come out to your property and base the number of tubes on the size of your property and tick population.
If you have questions on tick elimination services for you yard, please contact your local Mosquito Squad.
Another Tick-Borne Illness on the Rise
Posted by janegwalker in Anaplasmosis, Barrier Sprays, Deer ticks, Tick Protection, Tick Tubes, Tick-borne illnesses and diseases, Types of ticks, Uncategorized on March 7, 2014
Many people are familiar with the most common tick-borne disease: Lyme, but another has been on the rise: anaplasmosis.
Anaplasmosis was first found in humans in the mid-1990s. States started to report cases in 1999 and ever since then it has been on a steady increase. While the numbers still remain relatively low nationwide, it's becoming more common in states with large black-legged tick populations.
Anaplasmosis is transmitted through the bite of an infected black-legged or deer tick. While the symptoms are flulike with the most common being fever, chills and headaches, it actually affects the body's white blood cells and can be quite dangerous. White blood cells help combat illness in the body, so if the number is decreased, the body can't fight other infections.
David Letterman, host of The Late Show, suffered from anaplasmosis in 2009 after being bitten by a tick while spending the night outside. He told his audience that it made him feel worse than the heart surgery he had in past.
When diagnosed, anaplasmosis is treated with antibiotics, but one of every 200 cases is fatal.
As spring returns and temperatures rise, we all like to spend more time outdoors. Ticks will become quite active again soon, which means we need increase our awareness and vigilance.
Mosquito Squad offers tick control services for the home through our barrier spray and tick tube applications. For anyone who is spending time outdoors, especially in areas where ticks are known to live, please use these tips:
- Wear long-sleeved shirts and pants. Lighter colored clothing will make it easier to see the ticks
- Conduct a full body check after coming indoors. Use a mirror or ask someone to help check those hard to see areas
- Place clothes in the dryer, on high heat to eliminate any ticks that remain on your clothing.
- Promptly remove any ticks that have attached to you using tweezers.
If you have questions regarding tick control, please contact your local Mosquito Squad office.

Who slapped some sense into Congress? That's what I was wondering as I read in The New York Times that a bipartisan group introduced a bill that would ban junk food from public school premises.
The bill would require all food sold from campus vending machines, school stores, and snack bars to meet guidelines to be determined by the Institute of Medicine. Even products sold for fund-raising would have to meet the guidelines, which would be based on whether the item promoted obesity or chronic illness.
"Members of Congress are hearing from their constituents and recognizing this has become a national problem," Iowa Democrat Sen. Tom Harkin tells the Times. The senator has sought such a law since 1994.
There are other signs that Americans are beginning to recognize something is wrong with the food supply. The rate at which women are becoming obese seems to have slowed, reports The Washington Post.
While woman aren't losing weight, they have held steady from 1999 to 2004, according to a Centers for Disease Control study. It's the first time weight gain has slowed among any portion of society.
But the good news is tempered by the reality that two-thirds of women are overweight, while children, adolescents and men continue to gain. Just look at these numbers:
In 2004:
Actually, obesity tables are only half the story when it comes to our health. That's because obesity rates do not take into account normal and underweight Americans who suffer from poor nutrition, which is much more difficult to gauge.
Equally worrisome is what industry lobbyists will do to the school nutrition bill. "My fear is that the food industry, with the soft drink industry taking the lead, will work its hardest to weaken or kill this act," Dr. Kelly Brownell, director of the Yale Center for Eating and Weight Disorders, tells the Times.
Brownell is right; that's how legislation is made in America today. By the time this bill is signed by the President, it will probably ban all fruit and vegetables from school grounds and only allow donuts to be sold. Our only hope is parents scream loudly enough that legislators are afraid to muck around with this legislation.

Rainbow Baby EDD 02/24/2013
Not true for me. I was 38 weeks with my first, then 40 weeks, 41 weeks, and 42 weeks. I wish it was true for me though :) 42 weeks was torture.
Aimee, Homeschooling Momma to 5 sweet lil guys
I've had 2 (unnecessary) inductions, but from what I've heard, this couldn't be farther from the truth. I've heard the same person say they've gone 4 weeks with each pregnancy.
SAHM to Ethan April 07' (Doose Syndrome, ASD), Taylor Jan 10' & Lillian Feb 13'
Both my DS's came at 38 weeks. Also, both on the first of their respective months.( ODS May 1st,Yds July 1st.) I'm hoping for 38 weeks again. With both, I went into labor naturally. ODS contractions started, YDS water broke.
I doubt this LO will be on the 1st of February, as thats in my 36th week, and definitely don't want to go to March 1st, as I'm due February 25th!
Niki (28) wife to Jason (30) DS Jason Robert Jr. (5-11-08) DS Zackary Michael (9-12-10) DS Matthew Alexander (2-10-13)
40 weeks exactly for both my children (went into labor by myself on their due dates) with my son water broke first but 33 hour labor with my daughter contractions started and it was only an 18 hour labor.
expecting this one to come at 40weeks as well but we shall see :)
#1 Aidrian James 7-30-07 ( . Y . ) GOLD #2 Jaelie Nicole 9-04-11( . Y . ) GOLD #3 Raiden Cael 2-25-13 ( . Y . ) still going!
All of my births were induced. 2 at 39 weeks and 1 at 37 weeks, but she was is distress.
Of course this guy tried to come at 25 weeks so Id say similar timing isnt always the case. Im hoping he comes by himself at 38 weeks.

WOO HOO!! Anders is back!
Nice work. You're making me want that Keyshot plug in even more than before!
Great way to start off the new year Henning!
I think I figured it out. Using Key Hold mode seems to work.
Gary.M - Thanks for the tool type. I think Radial Menu is slightly easier to setup than Toolbar Control. What settings did you use to get Radial Menu to allow simultaneous button press while using...
MarkWhitcombe - There are Surface Pro compatible pens with 2 buttons. It's a pain to find them because few vendors accurately describe the button functions (or even how many buttons there actually...
ZBrush runs very well on Surface Pro and even better on Surface Pro 2. Both use a Wacom digitizer for their screen.
The Surface Pro 3 use and N-Trig digitizer. It only has 256 levels of pressure...
Very nice. What did you use to render it?
Great stuff. Thank you for the tutorials!
The 2nd creature, pictured in the 3rd and 4th rows has knees that kind of look like apes!
My latest piece done on my Surface Pro at last week's Sketchbook Sessions San Diego DRAWSOME! Wednesday. Man I wish I didn't keep forgetting to turn off the menus when I record movies!!!
Hi Janet,
WOW! I thought I had replied to you ages ago. Very sorry for the delay! If it is not too late here is my answer:
I would be lying if I said the Surface Pro screen size never bothered...
Tough decision! I like the jacket and mech arm in B but I prefer the overall outfit on C. Why no mech arm in C? Perhaps you could do a flesh colored versions of the mech arm for C, Or a normal...
I like it Henning. MODO render? If so, would you mind telling us a bit about your set up in MODO please? Thanks.
Sweet! Love watching you sculpt.
Svjeeta, I get it now. Thank you very much for taking the time to re-explain! I thought it was part of some bigger process... Instead, it's a way to push, reduce or change specific sculpt details....
Hey Svjeetam,
Your English is just fine! Understood what you did. I just do not understand why you are doing it. What do you need the positive and negative versions of the displacement map for?
Thanks for the tutorial. Amazing work all around!
Thanks for the tutorial. In the screen grab it looks like you have your area lights in the same position as your spotlights. Am I correct?
Wow, thanks for all the cool tips!! Any chance you'll share your cool custom brushes?
Beautiful. I am loving your work! What did you use for hair strips on the girl with the partially shaved head?
Love the piece and love seeing you sketch the concept! I didn't quite understand your displacement map trick for the balaclavas. How do you use the positive and negative values?
Nicely done! I too would love to see it lit and textured to match the concept. Congrats on the top row!
Thanks for the brush info too!
Wow. Just when I think you can't get better you up your game again!
Beautiful stuff.
Is that Rihanna 2nd from the top on page one 106?

Grace, North Gem Considering Merger
(GRACE, ID) – Two local high schools with rivalries going back for over a century could merge soon. Jamie Holyoak, who serves as superintendent for both the Grace and North Gem school districts, says both communities are considering a district merger. Administrators say many of the buildings in both districts are outdated, and that a $9 million bond would allow the combined district to merge the high schools into a new building, in addition to constructing a new elementary school in Bancroft. Officials plan to begin consolidation discussions with the public next month.

PLAINS TWP. — There was no cover charge Saturday night at Twist nightclub as it prepared to close its doors for the final time.
The plaza where the club popular with the gay community is located was sold and the space will be converted into offices, making Saturday night the club's final night.
Nik Hughes, manager of the club, said the closing won't be the end, however.
"We'll take about a year off," he said. What direction it will take, he didn't say, adding, it's going "to be continued."
The $5 cover charge was lifted for the night. The seats at the bar were filled and above it televisions showed the movie "Finding Nemo."
The club has been counting down the days on its Facebook page. A post Friday said, "Thank you ALL for 15 AMAZING years…we couldn't have done it without YOU!"
