Friendly Sketches
Hail, stranger.
bio-puke: I'm 20, interested in drawing and painting. I still remember when I first discovered this site, and I saw that Jason Manley had made Bodhi's character from Baldur's Gate II. I've been inspired by so many people on this site - I hope to give back somehow.
And, seeing as how this is a sketchbook thread, I've included a sketch from a natural history museum I visited today. I enjoyed the visit so much I think I'll go again soon.

Hello again, CA. Recently I've been thinking seriously about applying to an atelier. The "Realism vs. Construction" thread in the art schools & education sub-forum has been a great read on the subject - very informative.
Anyway, here's some recent work of mine to give you an idea of where I'm at. I did end up visiting the natural history museum once more, a few sketches from there below. There also some recent figure drawings I've done, and my most recent abysmal self-portait .
Also, a picture of the 2nd bargue drawing I've done. I've made some changes since then but that's essentially it. Sorry for the low quality photograph! I'm still learning to ways of the camera. Critiques/advice much appreciated!
A few questions have popped up recently - it would be awesome if anyone had an answer to either:
*When I put in some value with a harder pencil, say 2h, and then shade over it with a softer pencil, I seem to get this disagreeable textural result. Do I need certain paper for this? Should I stick to one pencil hardness?
*How can I deal with self portrait size? Mine come up pretty small because I'm doing them life size in a typical mirror. Is it standard practice to use a mirror that enlarges the face, or should I draw larger than life, or just keep practicing drawing that small (like 5 inches in head height)?
I'm off to re-acquaint myself with charcoal and later today start my first ever oil paint color charts via Richard Schmid's awesome book!

Hi everyone - I dipped into oil paints for the first time! I'm planning on doing the color charts suggested in Richard Schmid's book. What a privilege to be able to benefit from the experience of artists like him! Here's a process shot of my first one. I'm having a difficult time seeing subtle value changes. I.e., if I took the 1st and 5th gradation of one of the hues below and tried to see if the 3rd was an exact midpoint between the two, I would only be able to give a very crude estimate. I suppose that's what the charts are for, though
Does anyone know a good place to buy plaster casts online?

Hey, so lately I've been progressing on the color charts and attending figure drawing sessions. I really have to beat it into my brain to take my sketchbook everywhere I go. I think I'll start trying the character of the week thing to work on my (currently nonexistent) digital skillz/drawing from imagination, too.
Here's a quick run through of the quick figure drawings (anywhere from 5-30 minutes)
1. What I hate about this one is the hideous rendering. Look at the shading lines by his butt, it looks like I'm trying to light him on fire! I think it would help to study some of the masters' sketches to improve my quicker shading.
2. Quick 5 minutes, I was happy with what I was able to get on paper in that time with this one (for my level, anyway).
3. Do you think the outline on this guy is too hard and even? Sometimes I really flatten my images by accident by unintentionally doing that.
4. I tried using my finger to blend in the graphite here. It seems like it could be useful to lay down tone quickly just like charcoal, but maybe lighter and so more effective for light skin tones? I dunno, just a little experimentation.
5. I feel sometimes like my drawings really come out like crap. I'm sure we've all been there. But we must listen to the eternal wisdom of Chris Farley: "that's when people like us have to forge ahead."
I have many more unscanned, just used these as examples. Tell me what you think!
Color charts have been interesting for sure - since there's no teacher over my shoulder saying "that value/color is off!" I compare mine to Richard Schmid's color charts and adjust accordingly. Unfortunately a few colors (particularly my Yellow Ochre Light) are just different than Schmid's oils right out of the tube, so there's a fudge factor for those. Maybe I'll take those colors which are different than Schmid's and reduce to grayscale in photoshop so I can see how I'm doing.
If anyone has other suggestions about how to be effective with color charts, I'd be happy to listen.
Oh, one last thing - anyone know where to find a good quality anatomical skull plaster cast for $20? I swear someone prominent on CA linked to a site that sold one, but I can't dig up that link to save my life.
Thanks for looking everyone,

Hi again CA,
Just a few 10-20m figure drawings and a self portrait in charcoal to show. I changed the brightness/contrast of the figure drawings to make them more visible. My self portraits have been settling into life-size, which is small given how far I am from my mirror (phone was included for scale), and that made blending with my fingers pretty difficult at that size. I poked around Emily G's pages and noticed that she did her Fechin copy with a 2B charcoal pencil. Half the time I was using my compressed charcoal as a crude pencil instead of taking advantage of it's broad strokes, anyway, so charcoal pencil experimentation is definitely coming soon.
C&C always appreciated. Later all!

I like your color charts! They're very clean, and I like the colors. : )
The post where you numbered the figures, I think the outline for number 3 could be a little lighter, as well as number 5. I have issues keeping my outlines from getting too dark so I know it's hard to keep that from happening.
December 14th, 2009 #7
Long time no see CA! It's been 3 weeks since I last posted - I had a nasty fever right after Thanksgiving that put me out for a week. Since then I've been busy finishing my color charts! Or mostly finished - still needs a bit of clean-up and correcting. I've also included a few sketches from my first attempt using charcoal pencil. It's good to be back
December 14th, 2009 #8
Great color charts! And as for the sketches, they look good so far, I do believe the statue could use more mid-tones. Good job, keep it up!
"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."
Matthew 7:3-5

Thanks for the encouragement, Rhoades! You're definitely correct about the mid-tones being an issue with the Bargue statue drawing - I did the mid-tones last, and I didn't pay enough attention to them. D'oh!
Well, I did my first ever oil sketch today! It was on tracing paper with black foamcore behind it to tone the white tracing paper grayish. Other than the color charts I've never really painted before. It was a pretty big first step for me. I'd say it was a successful failure of a first try, heh. There are many, many mistakes, of course, but I tried. I kept it about as simple as it gets. One red delicious apple (I planned on doing more but the apple kept me busy). I did line drawing with charcoal before using oil paint, and I used my color charts a little as a reference. I've got a close up and a shot from the easel (the easel shot shows the apple at a different angle than what I drew it from). The background I painted is wildly inaccurate, and all of those paint splotches you see is me trying to mix paint on the paper. What a mess!
I've included a self portrait from today in charcoal pencil as well. I'm still a beginner with self portraits, drawing in general...practice, practice... I also found a picture of my first bargue in an e-mail attachment a few days ago, thought I'd put that up as well. It's not the best photo, but I suppose it beats nothin'.
Happy to hear any C&C, thanks for stopping in
December 18th, 2009 #10
hey there i like your stuff.. love the colour charts
December 19th, 2009 #11
PoO-kiE - that's a great compliment coming from you! Thank you. Colour charts are our friend
So I did a bit more oil painting today (not nearly enough). It was a humbling experience. I can't get colors right - I need to SLOW DOWN. I'm still in the drawing mode speed-wise, but I can't keep up that pace and expect any sort of results yet - painting is a new beast to tackle. I have one and a half little fruits, and one sad face (an apple that just didn't make it. R.I.P.) I need to focus on the background colors, too, they can affect color judgment. Also a few quick sketches from a natural history museum nearby.
At least tracing paper is great when I'm not - charcoal really glides on it. Feel free to critique, but these are mostly here to encourage me to post something less embarrassing asap. Back to it!

Hey guys. It's been a while, too long. I'm getting back into it after a good break. I'm shifting gears for a while - I'm going to be doing my first cast drawing, sight-size! Hopefully it's not too soon for me to start on one. There's a blurry picture of the cast I mounted today. There is an oil painting as well (the last thing I did before break, unfinished). I also included a sketch of a pheasant, and 3 extremely quick sketches of my girlfriend. I am pleased to say sketching is getting more fun, or at least it has been recently . I really need to push my value range on sketches, I hardly ever dip into the darks. I have a heavier studio class load this semester, so I'll keep oil painting as much as I can on my own. I will also probably post oil paintings I do in my figure painting class, so hopefully my output on CA will remain constant, if not increase in volume. Sheesh my self portraits look awful...ha ha.
Good luck with your own work! If you have any questions, comments, etc., I'm here to listen.
January 23rd, 2010 #13
CA! It's been too long. I should have more to show than this! I do have some figure drawings and a few sketches to upload, but I'm just taking a quick break from my bargue to scan this in. No bargue progress yet because I'm being a very poor bargue student! Too much eye, not enough plumb-line and thread, too impatient. So I'm sure there will be extra revisions in the future for my bargue, heh...crime doesn't pay.
These self portraits (one is SUPPOSED to be a monochrome, hehe...and one a barely-finished full color painting) were both done for a class o' mine. The monochrome is a grisaille which I'll eventually glaze over. The second one is supposed to executed using more of an alla prima approach - direct painting.
I'm really getting outside of my comfort zone now! I remember when I used to be in jazz band, and the feeling I'd get when I'd have to improvise. Or when I played in chess competitions. That nervous stage-fright, out-of-my-bubble feeling can happen when painting too! I consider it a good thing - I hope it means I'm growing. I'm using a palette knife for the first time.
Any critiques appreciated, as I have little to no idea what I'm doing with paint...yet.
January 27th, 2010 #14
Hi all,
here's a shot of my cast drawing. Last week when I took a photograph of it, it looked too ugly to post Anyway, because as I mentioned earlier I rushed this one early on, I've been spending a lot of time fixing little errors. Still a long way to go with those errors, but I'm getting there. I'm doing the linework in pencil first, but I think I'm going to do this one in charcoal.
Does anyone know how to go about smudging charcoal (or do you even need to smudge?) when doing bargue plates/cast drawings/highly finished drawings? I'm thinking of working with compressed charcoal, but the subtlety of tone change in the face might call for vine charcoal. Any opinions on this one?
night guys!
February 9th, 2010 #15
Hey guys.
Some days are just bad days. Some days you might feel like punching a wall for no discernible reason. Here's my unsuccessful first attempt at cast drawing. My next one won't suffer the same fate, I promise. Browsing other artist's blogs, I'm sometimes inspired most when the greats show their human side. (i.e., when they put up some really old work, or some "crappy" work, or even just talk about a bad time they had.) We're all human...aren't we?
I've made a little more progress on self portraits, will post again soon. Currently trying to decide when it would be best to try this cast drawing again.
Good luck!

Hey everyone, couple new pieces I wanted to put up. Finished up the full-color self portrait I was working on earlier, started a new one (the front view one), going to try to finish that one tomorrow. A crappy pic of one of my first times painting the figure, too. Also tried doing a few caricatures today, fun fun!
Comments and critique appreciated, as always.
February 12th, 2010 #17
1. start with a soft 2b pencil to fill in the shadows,
2. use an hb to model the general forms of what you're drawing (a cylinder for the torso or the arm, for example)
3. darken the shadows in the places where light is completely absent and model them with an hb.
4. model the light parts with an hb or a 2h.
"I tried using my finger to blend in the graphite here. It seems like it could be useful to lay down tone quickly just like charcoal, but maybe lighter and so more effective for light skin tones? I dunno, just a little experimentation."
Using the finger dirties the pigments on the paper and can produce greasy spots that can be hard to erase, besides is not that accurate. For more precision trying to use a brush or just the pencil to carefully build up the tone (this should also help you improving your line quality as you gain more control over the pencil).
Nice self portraits! and nice still lives!

Hello! It's been a long time since I've posted, but I'm going to try to get back in the habit a bit. A lot has happened for me since I was last here - I moved to California (probably temporarily) and am attending Art Center's at night program, taking some basic figure drawing and illustration courses.
It's a little rough adjusting from my small midwestern town roots to being here all by my lonesome, but the quality of education is worth it. They have open figure drawing/painting sessions for 5 hours practically every day here! Anyway, the past month I've been in a bit of slump since school got out, but my first figure drawing class here is helping to snap me out of it. Nothing like a kick in the butt to get you moving again.
Not much to show, just a quick self portrait in vine charcoal I just finished earlier today, haven't really used vine before. Also a pencil gesture from class.
Gaussian, you were right about the soft to hard, I never thanked you for the advice! So thank you.
Sorry about the poor photo quality, camera's missing so I used photo booth.
Looking forward to posting again, see ya!
May 21st, 2010 #19
Hey friendly,
Looks like some good solid classic training!
Overall crit: most of your work seems kind of light-- drawing and painting-- squint your eyes, map your shadows, and punch in the darks like you see them through squinted eyes-- meaning darker than they appear through normal viewing.
Be interesting to see how you progress at Art Center!
May 29th, 2010 #20
Hi guys!
Kamber - that's very true of my work. I use way too much white when I paint (not really intentionally going for a high key) so it tends to look very washed out. Same with my graphite, the gestural strokes lack confidence so they aren't as dark as they might be. I'm workin' on it!
Just thought I'd post some recent figure drawings. My figures are looking a lot more dynamic, but I'm having a hard time figuring how much of it's just that the poses I'm seeing are so much more dynamic and the models have more defined musculature than the models I'm used to. I'm pretty sure I'm improving with my gestures, though, just in the way I approach the model, looking for the large curves, the stretch and pull of muscles, rhythm and all that stuff I know pitifully little about. The anatomy tends to get a bit distorted when I do this, but I think the overall impression is more faithful, and I can work on the distortion with practice.
Apologies for the weird sizing, I have to find a more efficient way to resize photos. Oh yes, and the sucky lighting too.
Off to work on a self portrait now, good luck!

Hi everyone! It has been a while. Finally getting around to posting something again. Here are a few figure drawings from a friday workshop. I'm getting a bit better. My work ethic is slowly improving in tandem with how much I limit myself to being on the internet and gaming. Bad habits to overcome! It can be difficult, especially if you have friends you keep in touch with exclusively through those means.

I'm really liking your work =3 You seem to have a very good grasp on keeping the centre of gravity strong, and the self-portraits are awesome! Also, it seems like you're darkening up your work a bit, which is great =3

I really like the range of your studies - it seems like youre still in the starting-phase with a lot of things like oil painting , but don't worry! If you keep putting all of this work and these studies in , you're going to advance really quickly. I particularly like the oil portraits a few months back. You should post more often!

Hey everyone, quick post of a 20 minute head from class. Among the many problem areas, I took a few too many liberties with the mouth, and boy, did I mess up the shape of the shadow along his chin! Oooof. Way off.

When a tournament or team match is 960 and has rating limits, the limits are applied to the normal ratings instead of the 960 ratings. Also the pairings seem to be done by normal ratings, and the normal ratings appear in the pairing tables. The games themselves come up rated correctly, it only appears to affect other things -- and it affects anything else a rating is used for.
Something should be done to correct this problem. A filter of combining both ratings. and then averaging them together would work. that way, the opponents match up better. Sandbaggers would have to mess-up both of thier ratings,instead of only one. That is the best and only fair way to the help the poor little old sandbaggers to sandbag. Make them work even harder to keep both thier ratings down, so they can cheat in match play. Think about it.
I see this problem was reported 3 years ago, and still it has not been taken care of. I also reported this some days ago in the site feedback suggestion, but received no response. What's the point of having a site feedback forum, if the staff don't respond to it? As a paying member, I would expect more.

Elana44 asks…There is a lot of buzz going on around tocopheryl acetate and it being cancerogenic because it can be contaminated with hydroquinone. My question is, is there any recent study showing it? Is there any way to check if tocopheryl acetate in my cream is contaminated.
The Beauty Brains respond:
Before we answer this question let's do a quick mini-lesson on tocopheryl acetate chemistry.
Tocopheryl acetate (an ester version of Vitamin E, let's call it TA for short) is available in two forms. One is called the "d" form and the other the "l" form. When TA is isolated from naturally occurring sources like vegetable oils you get the pure "d" form; when it is created synthetically (using isophytol and methylquinone) you get a mixture of the "d" and "l" forms. So, natural TA is designated d-alpha-tocopheryl acetate and synthetic TA is dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate. Because the dl version is made using methylquinone , it can contain trace amounts of hydroquinone.
As we've said many times in the past, natural ingredients are not always better than synthetic. But in the case of TA, natural is better! That's because our bodies use the natural form more efficiently (the natural form is about twice as biologically active, which makes sense since the synthetic version is a 50/50 blend of the d and dl types.) The Wikipedia entry gives several good references if you want to track this down further.
Also, the natural version is free of hydroquinone which should alleviate your cancer concerns. This doesn't mean there's evidence that the synthetic form is BAD. According to a study published in 2002 in the International Journal of Toxicology , "Because methylhydroquinone is used in the chemical synthesis of Tocopherol, there was concern that hydroquinone may be present as an impurity. In such cases, residual levels of hydroquinone would be expected to be limited to those achieved by good manufacturing practices." As we know, the dose makes the poison. If hydroquinone is present as a trace contaminant it's probably at the part per million level. By comparison, skin lightening creams use 5% or more of hydroquinone. AND you only have a small amount of tocopheryl acetate in most finished products. That means the actual amount of hydroquinone you're exposed to is extremely low. We're not toxicologists, but we find it hard to believe that such low levels would present an elevated risk. (Certainly exposure to such small amounts of this ingredient presents a much lower cancer risk than smoking or drinking!)
That doesn't mean TA is without issues. Truth in Aging provides a nice review citing studies that show TA can be a skin sensitizer and that it can cause some other problems when ingested at high doses. Still, it seems the antioxidant and skin conditioning benefits outweigh these potential issues.
According to the toxicologist experts, this vitamin E derivative is safe for use in skin care. If you're really worried about cancer risk from contaminated TA, you could check to ensure the manufacturer is using d-alpha tocopheryl acetate.

[quote:PehJeshuah 27455920:MV80OTUzOTRfMzQ0OTMxOTlfNjY2NEI1MUM=] Hello again, waterman, So you dare go on propagating your stupidity and ignorance of the true contents of the book of Revelation? Well then, let us look at what you say and weigh it in the scales of truth. You quote Rev 12 and ask: [quote:waterman][b]who is the child she gives birth to?[/b][/quote] [b]My answer:[/b] At least, there is one evident thing that has tremendous impact on your question, namely the fact that ever since it came the book of Revelation foretells things to happen and not things that had already happened when it was given to the servants of God. That is what is written in Rev 1:1, so it cannot be denied. Therefore, the woman who gives birth to the man child in Rev 12:5 is definitely not Mary, the woman who gave birth to Jesus, our Saviour. [quote:waterman][b][u]The bible has a pattern of doing the physical first and then the spiritual[/u][/b]. In the beginning Adam and Eve had [b][u]physical children[/u][/b] together. [b][u]In the end the two witnesses will be a type of Adam and Eve bringing forth spiritual children[/u][/b] In Zechariah we see Joshua and Zerubabbel building the temple, representing the two witnesses building the temple.[b][u] God doesn't want a temple made of bricks[/u][/b], He had two of those and both were able to be destroyed. God wants people to accept what His Son Jesus did on the cross and repent. When a person does that they become the temple of God. The bible tells us there is a famine of the Word of God in the end, and these two witnesses are annointed to preach the Word so they will build the temple by spreading the Word of God about Jesus and each person will become the temple by receiving the salvation Jesus offers and as each person becomes a temple, the temple gets bigger and bigger. Again[b][u] the bible shows the physical first and the spiritual second.[/u][/b] If you know history about Israel it separated into two kingdoms after Solomon. [b][u]The northern kingdom was called Israel and the southern kingdom Judah[/u][/b]. Israel had 10 tribes and Judah had two. Assyrians came in and invaded the northern 10 tribes and they were never heard of again..135 years later the babylonians attacked the southern kingdom and took them into captivity. The difference is 70 year later the southern kingdom(Judah) regrouped and came together again, and is the Israel we know today. Those other ten tribes are in the Land of Milk and Honey(united states) just as God said he would place them. So if the 10 tribes of Israel are in the land of the United States then the people are the ones who make up Israel no matter what the land is called. America is the spiritual Israel because the 10 tribes live in the land of milk and honey. America is doing exactly what Israel did before judgement came and we will be destroyed and go into captivity just as the first [b][u]physical Israel[/u][/b] did, but God will raise up a deliverer just as he always does and send an Elijah with him. This last day servant will be Gods greatest servant because he will bring both houses of Israel 10 tribes and 2 tribes back together through the annointing God gives him. Look at Revelation 14 and you see this last day servant reaping the harvest and then look at revelation 19 and you can clearly see the difference between Jesus and the last day servant..it's posted at the top of the page. The woman about to give birth is spiritual Israel(united states)and the last day servant comes from there[/quote] [b]My answer:[/b] You ought to read Scripture in humility and prayers to God, that He show you the truth, instead of contradicting His words. Your claim that the woman in Rev 12 is USA is just ridiculous rubbish, for while USA has 50 stars this woman has only 12 stars. USA has never, spiritually speaking, had the moon "under her feet", nor been "clothed with the sun". While the woman in Rev is being protected and will finally return to "her place" (Rev 12:14), being truthful, USA is seen to be the origin of many major false churches that spread their poison worldwide, among which are Mormonism, Christian Science, Seventh-day Adventism, and Jehovah's witnesses. That the true witness of God will come from USA is also rubbish, for USA is in the west, where the sun sets, while the true witness of God is raised up from the north country, which is therefore called "the rising of the sun" (namely (the place of) the rising of God's truth), as can be seen when Psalm 75:6, Isa 41:25, Psalm 48:2, and Zech 6:8 are compared: [quote: The Bible]For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.[/quote] [quote: The Bible]I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as upon morter, and as the potter treadeth clay.[/quote] [quote: The Bible]Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King. [/quote] [quote: The Bible]Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country. [/quote] Also, in saying that God will bring Israel and Judah together you are contradicting the Bible, for in Zech 11:14 it is foretold that God will, on the contrary, "break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel" in the NT time period. These words cannot be applied to the ten tribes of historical Israel, for they are gone forever. What is called "Israel" in Zech 11:14 is in biblical prophecy the fallen-away Christianity of today. You seem to claim that one of the two witnesses in Rev 11:3 is our Lord himself, but such a claim is downright a fallacy. The two witnesses are foretold to sit on either side of Jesus Christ, so you are totally wrong. Read the following text in the Bible and become convinced that I tell you the truth! [quote: The Bible]Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him. And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left, in thy kingdom. But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able. And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.[/quote] Pay heed to the truth that I tell you in order that God may heal you, or, else, accept the mark of the beast! Greetings from PehJeshuah [/quote]
Original Message
In the dream I just had, I was told to find a website called Godlike. I have never before heard of, nor have I ever visited this place. I must apologize in advance if I offend anyone, I don't even know the rules for posting here. I am not even sure if this message will make it to anyone.
So as I was saying, in this dream I was told to find the website Godlike. I google it and this is the first one that comes up, I can only assume this was the intended site, although it seems a little "out there" for my tastes. I'm just following what I was told in the dream.
I was told to find this website (the one referred to as Godlike) and post that the two witnesses? ( a term I am not really familiar with ) are alive here and now, and they are visiting the same website I was referred to. So that is what I am doing. I was supposed to come here and say something along the lines of "The witnesses have arrived, They do not yet know who they are, or that they are the witnesses. They visit the site Godlike."
It was a very powerful dream, so I can only hope this has some meaning to someone out there in internet land.
Thank you for your time.

Harborview Composer
Masguda Shamsutdinova, a formally-trained symphonic composer from Eastern Russia and former professor of ethnomusicology, listens to sounds in the kitchen at Harborview Medical Center, where she was recently employed. Photo by Joshua Trujillo / Seattle Post-Intelligencer (ISO800, 16mm lens at f 3.5, 1/125th sec) Click here to see a multimedia slideshow about Masguda Shamsutdinova and her lullaby project at Harborview Medical Center. P-I reporter Carol Smith discovered the story about the accomplished Russian musician and composer that immigrated to the United States and had to start from scratch, working in the kitchen at Harborview Medical Center. She used that experience to build on her music career, composing a fourth symphony, partly inspired by sounds she heard at the hospital. She also began collecting lullabies from the diverse and international staff. [Read More]

The diversity receiver including plural antennas and one receiver comprises a detector means to detect a signal voltage responsive to an antenna output from an IF amplifier of the receiver and a comparator which is supplied with the signal voltage separated in two courses, one including a fixed bias applying circuit and the other including a time constant circuit, so as to select one of the antennas which is in a good receiving condition.
1. A diversity receiver which comprises:
a plurality of antennas;
an antenna selecting means to which said antennas are connected;
a receiver to which an antenna output from said antenna selecting means is applied;
a detector means to detect a signal voltage responsive to said antenna output from the output of an intermediate frequency amplifier of said receiver;
a judging means responsive to said signal voltage from said detector means to generate a judgement signal indicating whether receiving condition of operating one of the antennas is good or not;
a control means responsive to said judgement signal from said judging means to actuate said antenna selecting means so as to select one of said antennas which is in a good receiving condition;
said judging means including a comparator and two paths connecting two input terminals of said comparator to said detector means for comparing two inputs applied to said input terminals, one of said paths including a time constant circuit and the other including a bias applying means, at least one diode being connected between said detecting means and said two paths of the judging means.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a diversity receiver including plural antennas and one receiver so as to switch the antennas in response to their receiving conditions, and thereby suited for use in a car.
2. Description of the Prior Art
An FM receiver mounted in a car or other moving bodies is usually used while the body moves. Therefore, the direction of its antenna always largely changes as compared to a house-use FM receiver, and is apt to disaccord with directions of antennas of broadcasting stations. As the result, it is difficult to block influences by multipath noises.
The receiver of this type is mostly used in a weak electric field because electric field strength for the receiver always varies as the car goes on from highways to mountainous places, or from valleys to valleys between tall buildings. Due to this, the receiver must deal with noises intermittently generated within the receiver itself during reception of weak input signals.
One of conventional methods to overcome the above-mentioned problem is to change the receiver from stereophonic mode to monoral mode upon reception of weak input signals, or to attenuate high frequency band wave in addition to the foregoing mode changeover. By this method, however, since S/N (signal-to-noise ratio) improvement is done within the receiver to the input signal received by a single antenna, there is accordingly a limit in said improvement.
Another method is to provide two antennas and two tuners, thereby constructing a so-called diversity receiver so as to switch and select the antennas and the tuners in response to the receiving conditions. Although this method is more effective in said S/N improvement than the foregoing method, provision of two tuners causes increase of production cost and space.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks involved in the prior art, and to provide a diversity receiver including plural antennas and a single receiver and capable of maintaining always good receiving condition of the receiver.
In accordance with the present invention, a signal voltage responsive to an input signal received by one of plural antennas and detected by a single receiver is separated into two routes for comparison of the separated voltages so that, the antennas are switched in response to the result of the comparison, and one of them which is in a good receiving condition is always selected.

FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram of the judging circuit;
FIG. 3 shows waveforms;
FIG. 4 shows properties of the voltages to the (-) and (+) terminals of the comparator in the judging circuit of FIG. 2;
FIG. 5 is a further circuit diagram of the judging circuit;
FIG. 6 is an equivalent circuit diagram; and
FIGS. 7 and 8 show modified voltage properties.
The present invention will now be described in detail by way of preferred embodiments referring to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the diversity receiver according to this invention. Reference numerals 1a and 1b refer to antennas, 2 to an antenna selecting circuit, 3 to an RF amplifier, 4 to an IF amplifier, 5 to a demodulating circuit, 6 to an audio amplifier, 7 to a speaker, 8 to a detector, 8' to a judging circuit, and 9 to a control circuit, respectively. The detector 8 detects, from IF signals of the IF amplifier 4, a signal voltage responsive to an output of the antenna 1a or 1b. The judging circuit 8' detects, from the signal voltage, a dc voltage proportional to the electric field of a signal received by the antenna 1a or 1b, or detects a dc voltage obtained by comparison and computation of the electric field and the multipath level, and judges whether the receiving condition is good or not. The control circuit 9 makes the antenna selecting circuit excute or withhold its antenna switching action in response to a signal voltage from the judging circuit 8' so that the receiver is always connected to one of the antennas in a good receiving condition.
FIG. 2 shows the judging circuit 8' which performs comparison and computation of the detection voltage detected by the detector 8 and generates a resultant output to actuate the control circuit 9. The detection voltage is separated into two courses (paths), namely, course A including a resistor R1 and a variable resistor R2, and course B including a time constant circuit consisting of resistors R3, R4 and a capacitor C. The separated voltages are applied to a (-) terminal and a (+) terminal of the comparator, respectively, for comparison and computation thereby. In this case, while the (+) terminal is applied with the separated voltage after voltage division by the resistors R1 and R2, the (-) terminal is applied with the separated voltage after voltage division by the resistors R3 and R4. However, since the charging/discharging capacitor C is included in the course B, the separated voltage to the (-) terminal is affected by the time constant circuit. The (+) terminal is designed to normally receive a lower separated voltage than that to the (-) terminal.
When the car runs carrying the receiver including said comparator 10 for a certain distance, output voltages with waveforms as shown by (a), (b) and (c) in FIG. 3 are obtained from the respective terminals of the comparator 10. The waveform (a) corresponds to the separated output voltage applied to the (-) terminal via the route A and shows that this voltage varies in accordance with change of receiving condition. The waveform (b) corresponds to the separated output voltage applied to the (+) terminal via the route B, and shows that variation of this voltage is moderated due to the time constant circuit with combination of the resistor R3 and the capacitor C or with the combination of the resistor R4 and the capacitor C. The waveform (c) corresponds to the output supplied from the comparator 10 as the result of comparison and computation of the both separated voltages shown by the waveforms (a) and (b). The comparator 10 supplies an H (high level) signal, for example, when the detector voltage lowers down the average level due to electric field variation caused by a bad receiving condition, and supplies an L (low level) signal when the detector voltage becomes higher than the average level, thereby allowing judgement that the receiving condition is good when the L signal is supplied, and bad when the H signal is supplied.
The output signal from the comparator 10 is applied to the control circuit 9. The control circuit 9 is operative only when the comparator 10 supplies the H level signal (when the receiving condition is bad) so as to actuate the antenna switching circuit 2.
FIG. 4 shows properties of the input voltages Vi at the (-) and (+) terminals of the comparator 10 (ordinate) with respect to the antenna input signal Vo (abscissa).
By adjusting the variable resistor R2 provided in the course A, the (-) terminal voltage may be increased or decreased as shown by the two head arrow in FIG. 4. This property teaches that antenna selection sensitivity is extremely good when the antenna input Vi is weak, and is bad when the antenna input Vi is sufficiently strong (changeover of the antennas is not effected unless the electric field strength extremely lowers).
FIG. 5 shows another construction of the judging circuit 8'. D is a diode and R5 is a resistor connected in series to the variable resistor R2 to supply the (-) terminal with a forward fixed bias derived from a source voltage VCC. The diode D performs dc blocking and voltage level shifting of the signal from the detector 8.
With this arrangement of the judging circuit 8', if the input impedance of the judging circuit 8' is sufficiently high upon reception of a weak input, its equivalent circuit is shown by FIG. 6, and the voltages V- and V+ at the (-) and (+) terminals of the comparator 10 are expressed by the following equations: ##EQU1##
FIG. 7 shows properties of the voltages at the respective terminals of the comparator 10 in the judging circuit 8' with respect to the antenna input signal. By supplying the (-) terminal of the comparator 10 with a forward fixed bias as described in the above, antenna selection sensitivity especially upon weak input reception can be lowered as compared to the property of FIG. 4. Due to this, since the antenna changeover is not effected even if the electric field strength varies more or less, too frequent antenna switching actions are prevented while the car passes through a weak signal region such as tunnel, for example.
FIG. 8 shows still further properties of the voltages at the (-) and (+) terminals of the comparator 10. The comparator input voltages can be shifted by use of forward voltage drop of the diode D provided at the input end of the judging circuit 8'. The variation properties can be modified by increasing and adjusting the number of the diodes D. This Figure shows that the antenna switching sensitivity is dull upon weak input reception but sharp upon sufficient increase of the input.
Whichever point the antenna switching action is effected or not can be selected as desired by adjustment of the variable resistor R2.
When the resistance of the resistor R5 is larger than those of the other resistors so as to supply the (-) terminal of the comparator 10 with a slight forward fixed bias, it is effective in performance of its purpose.
As described in the above, the receiver of this invention, including plural antennas and one receiver and designed to separate a signal voltage detected by the receiver into two courses to compare the separated voltages so as to switch the antennas in response to the output resulted from the comparison, effectively reduces multipath noises and improves S/N ratio with only one receiver, thereby leading to reduction of production cost and space of the diversity receiver.
Especially when a fixed bias applying circuit is provided in one of the two courses, the output as the result of the comparison responsive to the input to the receiver can be freely determined so as to prevent too frequent changeover between the antennas, thereby reducing noises caused by the changeover. Further, the separated voltages can be adjusted so as to sharpen the antenna switching sensitivity when the input is sufficiently large.

I'm seeking information about Lawrence Kenneth Farrar Sr and his wife Marguerite Smith Farrar (both deceased), who used to own a small grocery store in Charlotte, NC (Mecklenburg County).
I'm a historian working on a history of their grocery store. I'd be very grateful to anyone who has photographs of the Farrars--especially when they were young--or photos of the store. I'd also love to speak with any relatives or anyone who knew them or worked at the store.

You have requested only one photo of this headstone. I wanted to let you know that I went to take a photo and there is a tree not far from the headstone so it is almost impossible to get a photo without some shadowing to it. There is also engraving completely on the back of the headstone as well. If you would like me to post both of these photos and then delete them if you do not like them, please let me know.

Well here it is and hope you enjoy it! After breaking my frame and not qualifying I got a loan of a GT Distortion 3.0 for the race http://www.gtbicycles.com/gbr/2012/bikes/mountain/enduro/2012-distortion-3-0 Made for some good overtaking! Especially after missing the mass-start. Thanks to Ricky for the loan - have a look at his fan page or search for clips of Ricky Crompton ior some great skills on a ramp :) https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ricky-Crompton-official-fanpage/115024658553451 In all fairness I sucked on the glacier - as you will see in the first few mins of the vid, and most of it didn't make the edit. I promise after that I ride better the further down the mountain I get so you may want to skip forward. In the edit, it's not really a best bits, of course the best bits made the cut but I have tried to give a feel of the full course. All the different types of terrain, uphills as well as down. You will see mention of "Jonny" in the vid, special thanks to him for firing me up to race on the day and the previous fortnights riding in Slovenia as well as on the Mega courses. www.rideslovenia.com And sorry that he crashed into #35 after me and #35 touched bars at high speed. There's a slow-mo of the crash within the vid. Hope you enjoy the vid, and the music while you watch.

Congress enacted the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, or Ferpa, in 1974 to safeguard the confidentiality of student "educational records." But today colleges are abusing Ferpa and denying information requests with no conceivable privacy interest—applying a limitless definition of "educational record" well beyond what Ferpa's sponsors intended.

"The education that I received at Lake Superior State University has opened many doors for me. I have worked with Firefighters and Paramedics for over thirty years as a co-worker, educator, and student. I have been very blessed in my life to have these opportunities. I truly believe that education is the cornerstone of everyone's career and LSSU provides the best.
My future goals are to become the Director of a Fire Science program and follow in the footsteps of the great educators that I have had the privilege of learning from. This will not be easy, but I believe that these Professors have prepared me to be successful. My achievements will be a direct result of the knowledge that they have bestowed upon me. It will then be my obligation to share this knowledge with others. "

Cyber communities or social networking sites such as Facebook.com and MySpace.com have become part of millions of students' daily lives. They post profiles to these sites, typically as a way to share more about themselves and meet new friends. However, some students are going overboard on the sharing–and putting themselves in danger.
Information posted on these sites is in the public domain, available for all to see, unless students put viewing limits on them when creating their profiles. Even then, it's not a good idea to post specific addresses, phone numbers or class schedules online, according to Alison Kiss, program director at Security on Campus, Inc. Students may believe that only friends will use this information yet it's really creating a "buffet for predators," according to one campus safety expert. Stalking and harassment as a result of online profiles is a very real concern on college campuses.
This can take many forms. Someone may call your student after seeing his profile online and not stop, even when your student tries to put an end to it. Other students use information online to bully, belittle, harass or threaten other members. Hate language is sometimes used and conflicts are dragged into cyberland instead of dealt with face-to-face.
Students often don't think beyond the "I'm going to post my information online" point of view to explore some of these very real 'what if" scenarios. Cyber communities often lull users into a false sense of security.
Here are a few words of wisdom to share with your student when discussing safety on these social networking sites:

"The opportunity at LSSU to do research is amazing. This past summer I motored through coves and islands with Prof. Garvon surveying water birds for the affects of pollution. I spent the other part of my summer on the shore of Lake Superior monitoring nests of the endangered Piping Plover."

Built with "FOREVER" in mind!
We've seen our fair share of dated wallpaper. We've opened up a wall or two. Kitchen and bathroom remodeling is what we do, including cabinet refacing and cabinet painting.
Our specialized niche is custom built-in cabinetry. Custom entertainment centers, custom closets, home offices, libraries, kids rooms, bedroom suites, mudrooms, you name it. If it can be built, we can build it!
From framing walls to installing moldings, kitchen and bathroom cabinets to custom closets, we've got it covered! Need pictures hung? We do that, too!
