LGM 2012: Getting closer! :D
Heading to Libre Graphics Meeting 2012
Today I submitted a talk of Tupi to the LGM, one of the most important events about Graphics and Free Software around the world. This year the meeting is at Vienna, Austria and I would love to be there to spread the word about Tupi and to show the latest (stunning) features I have been working on.
For now, all I can do is wait and see if my talk is accepted. Please, cross your fingers! :P
2D Magic from the classrooms in India
This week I got an special email coming from my friend Hassainar Mankada, he is a school teacher in the Kerala's state, India.
Pictures like these make my day :)
An example of cutout animation using Tupi
With a lot of help from my friend Gustavo Deveze and the special collaboration of Jon "Maddog" Hal, it's my pleasure to announce our first short film using only free software tools (including Tupi). Take a look at our very latest work:
Now, from the Debian universe too!
Last night I got a message coming from Dmitry Smirnov, telling me that Tupi now is part of the package repository of Debian! [1]
The best of this news is that Tupi will be available for all the Debian derivates and most of its platforms!
Tupi crashes with italian locale
I compiled Tupi 0.1-rc12 on a Slackware64 Linux system, but it crashes just after the creation of a new project with my italian locale.
However if I run
If you need an italian translator for some missing asset, I could do it.
Tupi 0.1 revision git12
The first day of the new year comes with a new revision. This time I have been working around many small bugs related to the Scenes Manager and the Player Interface.
Happy New Year! (Tupi style)
2D animation made using Tupi by Gustavo Deveze. Music: Yukikaze - Africa [ from Jamendo ]
Unlocked and Customizable new document presets
It would be very helpful to be able to have custom presets when creating a new document. Sure, you can change the dimensions and frame rate each time you start a new project, but if you choose a preset like the FullHD preset, which is set to 25fps, but then you cannot change the settings. It's locked. You have to go back to the "Free format" option (which should be "Custom") and then type in 1920x1080 and THEN you can choose the right frame rate of, say 24 (animation standard) or 30 (close standard to 29.97 for NTSC,) instead of the PAL setting of 25fps which is the locked default.
Tupi 0.1 revision git11 a.k.a. "Paola"
Hello to everyone!
The moment to announce a new revision has come again, but I must say that this one is special. This release is not only a bunch of fixes and new code, no. Believe it or not, this time is a wedding present too!

In the current global enterprise business environment, with the millions of applications running across mobile phones and tablets, mobile brings more business opportunities for value added services but also brings more challenges to existing systems. Data is being accessed at a rapidly increasing rate to service mobile applications and the workload is becoming a burden to back-end servers. The solution to this problem is caching, and IBM® WebSphere® eXtreme Scale or the WebSphere DataPower® XC10 Appliance can cache frequently used data, thereby improving the performance of mobile applications and reducing the traffic to these back-end applications.

If you're problem is that you need better performance on an increasingly higher traffic that mobile applications bring, in memory caching is your solution.

Read through the Enterprise Caching in a Mobile Environment Redbook to see how WebSphere eXtreme Scale, WebSphere Liberty Profile, and IBM Worklight can help you solve these problems. And better yet, we have an entirely working sample that can show you show easy it is to write an application using these technologies!

 Mobile Apps

Mobile apps are probably what you have been hearing for the past year and continuously throughout your everyday life as we speak. I bet many of you bond with your friends and family over a certain mobile app whether it is Angry Birds, Bejeweled, Cut the Rope, Draw Something, Fandango, Yelp, or Urban Spoon. There is always a popular game on smart phones that everyone is raving about, for example, Angry Birds was the most popular app for a while. Users were all having fun with the game and they would share that excitement as well share their anger when they get frustrated when not be able to hit the pigs with the birds. It is amazing how the development of mobile apps has changed how this and future generations will bond over and what is shared as social media.

Apple-iPhone & iPad take on SOCIAL MEDIA!

Apple today has grown to be one of the most popular tech companies to date. Ever since the introduction of the iPods new technology has been rolling out year after year. The highlight and most predominant contribution that Apple has made to social media is their world class iPhone. The first iPhone was unveiled by Steve Jobs, the late CEO, of Apple on January 9, 2007. Approximately every year, sometimes more and newer generation of the phone has been introduced. The biggest prestige of the iPhone is their unique operating system and worldly renown App Store. As of Feb, 2012 ComScore has estimated that 12.4% of US mobile subscribers are using an iPhone. Within this current era of social media, the iPhone/iPad are Apple's key instruments to stay "connected" with the world. More and more individuals are moving away from traditional desktops/laptops and are transitioning to a more mobile platform. The Mobile world is the next step in social media. Below are some videos about the newest iPhone.

 Here are also some reviews on the revolutionary iPad.

The economics of mobile application testing

The year 2011 seems to be when a lot of companies are motivated to extend their business applications to support mobile devices. I get asked about how IBM Rational supports mobile application development at least once a day (usually more often than that!). As new smart phones and tablets are projected to become the "client of choice" for internet access ( ZDNet: As Microsoft's monopoly crumbles, its mobile future is crucial), business application support for them will only intensify in the future. In some ways, mobile application software development is similar to other kinds of software development. But there are some different challenges associated with developing mobile software too.

One of the areas where mobile application development poses a huge challenge is testing. Testing for mobile applications represents a step-jump in complexity and cost over more traditional applications. With the hundreds of different mobile devices in the market, there are a wider range of endpoint types on which the application must execute. And even if you limit the range of devices that you plan to support with the application, the list will still typically contain dozens of devices manufactured by different vendors and at different releases. Compare that list to the one that a typical desktop application needs to support.

And there are more variables thrown into the equation for mobile testing that aren't relevant for other kinds of software. The same model of device may function subtly different when connected to a different carrier network. And the quality of the network connection can have profound impact on the behavior of a mobile application. Even the movement of the mobile device itself may be an important factor in the behavior of the application (some applications specifically exploit device movement). How can a mobile application project address this quality control challenge?

You could rely on mobile device simulators and emulators (Mobile Emulators & Simulators: The Ultimate Guide) for your testing. Using this approach, a software program running on a desktop workstation takes the place of a real physical device. I think that the use of simulators and emulators for mobile application testing can be valuable for developer unit tests and other "early stage" testing of a mobile app. However, the fact remains that these programs are not the actual physical devices. Some of the device simulators and emulators are excellent, but some are not that good at replicating the real device. I don't know about you, but I would not put an important business application into production that was solely tested on a simulator / emulator without ever being tested on a real physical device.

You could plan on manual testing of the mobile app (Mobileapptesting.com Article on Manual vs Automated Testing). You would have to buy all of the various mobile devices that you plan to support with the app. And pay someone (actually a team of someones) to tediously go through a written script of instructions describing the tests... on every one of those devices... for every build of the application. Expensive and inefficient is really an understatement to describe this process. But manual testing does serve an important purpose by providing a mechanism for obtaining crucial "usability" feedback for the app. Usability, or user friendliness, is even more important for mobile apps than it is for other kinds of software. And it is pretty hard to get an idea about how usable your app is without a real human being interacting with it on a real physical device.

There are mobile app testing solutions that rely on real physical devices tethered to a computer and running an agent program that the tests interact with and drive (Mac News Article about Eggplant). This approach has the advantage of using real physical devices for test with the added benefit of automation. You still have to buy all of the devices to be tested. And you are responsible for setting them up, tethering them to a computer and installing the test agent on them.

Another approach to address the mobile app testing challenge is to leverage what I call a "device cloud". The compute resources typically exposed by internet "cloud" services today are regular general purpose computers - virtual machines running the Linux or Windows operating system (NIST Definition of Cloud Computing). But a cloud could expose compute resources that are actually physical mobile devices. Instead of "renting" a Linux virtual machine for a few hours or days of testing, you could rent a specific model and release of a mobile device.

Does such a "device cloud" for mobile app testing exist? Yes, there is in fact just such a solution available today. IBM Rational Quality Manager (RQM) offers an adaptor for managing the execution of mobile app testcases on real mobile devices leveraging a device cloud controlled by the DeviceAnywhere system. Using this solution, you can write an automated script that executes the same test for your application on many different mobile devices. So you don't need a different script for each device. And the system can automatically capture screen shots of the mobile device if a testcase fails. The test failure data, including screen capture, is attached to a defect created by RQM which routes it to the application developer.

Now that I know about the "device cloud" automated testing solution, I can't imagine a more economical way to get the test coverage needed for mobile apps. I'll still use simulators for unit tests and to quickly check the app during the code-deploy-debug cycle of app development. But for fully automated functional testing and pre-production regression tests, I am really enthusiastic about the cost savings of the new device cloud test solution.

What do you think? Could a "device cloud" be in your future for mobile application testing? What other solutions for testing mobile apps have you seen?

Many of our customers and partners are interested in extending key portal-based applications to mobile devices. Most are prioritizing this effort as a set of services that is becoming mandatory (no longer optional) to deploy, to support the information access preferences of their customers, partners and end users. A wide variety of market research and information publications cite the rapid growth of the mobile application market. For example, a recent IBM study managed by the Institute of Business Value interviewed over 600 consumers across international locations and found over 50 percent would prefer to receive their information via mobile device instead of the PC today. Further, the study predicts that the world's population of mobile-phone users expected to increase from the current 50 percent to 80 percent in 2013.

IBM software offerings are architected to deliver information, collaboration, application and transaction services on the platform of choice; whether server-based, rich client or via mobile devices. Many of our Portal customers are already extending their portal based solutions to mobile audiences. Examples include online mobile banking, managing in-store task lists, customer service, accounts management, alerts, and subscriptions, application purchases, and more.

Using WebSphere Portal and the Mobile Portal Accelerator offering, our customers have leveraged the scalable, secure WebSphere Portal foundation services, including centralized administration and personalization services to seamlessly deliver applications targeted towards the information needs of their users; customers, prospects, business partners and internal employees. The Mobile Portal Accelerator software delivers content to mobile devices that 'fits' or suits the unqiue display characteristics of the mobile device; whether it is an iPhone, Blackberry, Nokia or older phone with fewer display options. In fact, the Mobile Portal Accelerator device repository enables the software to support over 6500 devices worldwide, with new devices added as the are updated or introduced to the market. Our customers have rapidly increased their ability to introduce new products and services to their connected and mobile audineces, using the combination of WebSphere Portal and Mobile Portal Accelerator, both managed via Portal administration. Their end user audiences are able to seamlessly complete tasks, collaborate with others, contribute new and updated information using their preferred device and work style, greatly improving overall organizational productivity and competitiveness. This solution also lets administrators, or site designers, make the right choices about which portal applications and pages they want to make available to their mobile portal audiences. In addition, from an end user point of view, the mobile end user is presented with a productive mobile experience; as the mobile display (including navigation, text and images) are optimized for the display characteristics of their mobile device. This reduces the frustration mobile users can experience when accessing mobile content designed for delivery to the "lowest common denominator" web mobile experience, which can often involve scrolling or missed information via an incomplete display. The Mobile Portal Accelerator multi-channel server and mobile device repository connect the device specific characteristics (and there can be as many as 800 defined per mobile device) through the multi-channel server which optimizes the portal content appropriately to the specific mobile device that invoked the portal page.

Last month we introduced a new version, the Mobile Portal Accelerator 6.1. This release introduces several useful new features, including support for the WebSphere Portal 6.1 platform. The Mobile Portal Accelerator (MPA) 6.1 release provides closer integration with the Lotus Web Content Management (LWCM) author and presentation environment. This means that LWCM content authors can create content, approve it for publication to the portal, and seamlessly also publish that content out to their mobile audiences. You can see a good demonstration of this in a demo posted to the Mobile Portal Accelerator wiki. Notice that the LWCM content authored presents differently (and is perfectly tailored to ) the device display characteristics of the iPhone, Blackberry and Nokia mobile phones used in the demonstration. Doesn't get much easier than that...

The new MPA 6.1 release also includes new out of box mobile enabled portlets, including an updated RSS mobile portlet, stock reporting portlet, and new client framework widget sample portlets (see details below).

Many of our customers are asking about support for 'Smartphones' with the ability to render Web 2.0 capabilities such as AJAX client side rendering. The Mobile Portal Accelerator offers support for such devices, and the ability to develop applications that can take advantage of the presentation power of those devices, via new Framework Client widgets and sample mobile portlets provided with the release. The sample widgets provide over fifty rich, client side interfaces that can be used to deliver an enhanced, more interactive experience to client capable mobile devices. Examples of these widgets include styling, transition, AJAX table, autocomplete, popup, ticker tape, and more. You can see a demonstration of some of these capabilities displayed to mobile devices, and other mobile portal application demonstrations on the Mobile Portal Accelerator wiki. This release also introduced several features and priorities that were planned jointly as we worked with our customers and partners to understand their current and future plans for mobile portal applications.

It's a great time to be involved with this technology - it's a very active space and our team is quite responsive to the needs of our customers as they deploy mobile portal solutions - worldwide.

IowaCommute, hang in there, spring is around the corner!
IowaCommute, welcome home. I haven't been on the kitchen forum for a while and am glad to see you are still around! You have moved to the most beautiful part of the state IMHO. Are you near Decorah? So many beautiful hills, and a different plant ecology than the rest of the state, I believe it has some boreal remnants up there.
Today we have sleet/freezing rain in central Iowa sometimes lovingly referred to as "a wintery mix". But for a few days it will be warmer than the zero mark.
The trees are all white with hoar frost.
Here is a picture of our yard with the old swing set that sat in my DH country school yard that closed in the early 60's. His dad bought it and it has been here in the yard since. Off into the distance you can see some large round bales for the cattle. And do you see the spiral staircase going up the side of the grain bin? It is a new feature. It is invigorating walking up there and viewing the countryside.
Hi Enduring, Thanks for the note. Winter/holidays have always been hard for me. I think the winter blahs just kind of get me down. I definitely felt deflated after Christmas, but I've cheered up since we put all of the decorations away.
I'm a stay at home mom, and I try to keep my nearly three year old busy with inside activities. She's like a polar bear though and never gets cold so when we venture outside in this crazy cold weather I take notice when she says she's cold.
My husband also works from home, and we are living in my DH's grandfather's house. It was originally a one room house built for a farmhand about 170 years ago and then added two rooms later when it became the post office. It has since had about five other rooms added on, and thankfully the kitchen is relatively modern. My DH's grandfather made the birch cabinets. Talk about sturdy. The house is in the 'barnyard' if you want to call it that. My FIL and his brother got out of the hog business last year but still have about 500 acres of corn and soybeans. So I guess working really hard for a month or two out of the year sounds pretty good. They have lots of time for golf which I am slowly learning.
We live near Independence or just NE of Waterloo. I looked on the map and Decorah is supposed to be just over an hour North of us. We too are getting the wintry mix. Eh. We finally sold our house in Kansas City just before Christmas, and I thought I was escaping the ice.
Now that I think about it we did go up to Guttenberg Iowa in the fall to see the lock and dam. I had never seen the Mississippi river, and it was very pretty up there. The rolling hills, trees, and bluffs reminds me of my grandma's house in the Missouri Ozarks. I told my DH we will have to remember the little towns up there like Strawberry Point for when they have festivals.
We're going to build a house in a couple of years because our little old farmhouse has some structural issues. We just sort of put a band aid on it since it was vacant for ten years. We're going to try to build on the farm someplace since I've learned it's good to be within walking distance to a tractor when there is a lot of snow. :)
I'll have to post some pictures of our place. I would like to hear what you have to say about living here, and if your house is next to a bunch of 'farm stuff.' I'm getting used to the house being next to the shop, tractors, old equipment. Maybe they just need to do some recycling next summer. I may have had a more picturesque idea of a yard when I imagined building our house in a couple of years.

Euonymus Scale
I've identified scale on my rather large euonymus (it was actually there last summer too but I didn't know what it was).
Several websites I visted list Cygon, Malathion, Orthene or Sevin as treatment.
I was wondering, can anyone let me know if they also have used one of these with successful results?
Thank you.
I've used all of the above to control Euonymus scale. For Malathion and Sevin, sprays should begin when the crawlers are out and then repeated every 7 to 10 days for a couple of sprays. You could use a product containing imidacloprid or Safari. Many forms of those are root drench or applied to the soil. It's slower to work than a spray, but will last a lot longer inside the plant. In bad infestations, the plants can be cut back to the ground and treated when growth comes back out.

The Hell Drivers
Deliver Rock Heaven
When the Hell Drivers play, one realizes how long the sound has been away.
Even though two of the members of this band are somewhat legendary — Jim McCarty and Johnny "Bee" Badanjek — the sound their pedigrees bring to bear in the Hell Drivers is both as familiar as an old troublemaking friend, and new and fresh as anything currently coming out of mainstream music.
In other words, it's that classic Detroit sound, found in the history of its members made new again — fresh, alive and driving.
"Other bands out there may have our energy but not our history," explains McCarty. "And some of the other classic acts out there may have our history … but not our energy."
No one makes music like this anymore. McCarty — along with band mates Bee on drums, veteran local vocalist Jim Edwards, bassist Marvin Conrad and keyboardist Danny Taylor — also drive home the point that no band could make music like this, but them.
Growing up in Detroit, McCarty and Bee were "fixed up" by their fathers, who were friends. The elder McCarty and Badanjek discovered their sons, who were close in age, both enjoyed playing music and thought it would be nice to get them together … and they've been together ever since, representing one of the great unsung rock partnerships. They began playing together, guitar and drums, the "original early White Stripes," as Bee says. McCarty agrees that their original chemistry never fails them.
"It's always been magic between Bee and me," McCarty says. "There's an energy between us. We have a ball, and the audience can see that."
In 1962, Bee and McCarty began playing with Mitch Ryder in Badanjek's basement, eventually becoming the Detroit Wheels. McCarty and Bee played on all of their early classics. Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels had their first big hit in 1965 with "Jenny Take a Ride," which reached #4 on national charts and #1 on the R&B chart — the first time a self-contained rock group had ever done so. The group had its biggest hit with the "Devil with a Blue Dress On/Good Golly Miss Molly" medley, which reached #2 on the national charts.
In 1972, after playing apart in various projects, Badanjek and McCarty reunited to form a new group called The Rockets, which recorded a number of albums through the 1970s and 1980s. Bee's songs launched the group into national prominence and proved his ability to score consistent hits such as "Can't Sleep," "Turn Up the Radio" and "Takin' It Back."
Over the years, Bee and McCarty have played with and contributed their talents to Bob Seger, Buddy Miles, Cactus, Alice Cooper, Edgar Winter, Albert King, Mark Farner, Dr. John, Nils Lofgren, Les Paul and The Romantics, in addition to many other less-known bands.
Hell Driving
When McCarty, Bee and Edwards began jamming consistently on Wednesday nights at a local bar, people began to notice, even traveling from as far away as Dayton, Ohio and Alpena. Crowd favorites proved to be the Rockets' songs, which fans had been unable to hear for almost 25 years. McCarty and Bee needed a singer to deliver the material and the success of these shows proved they'd found their man.
"We needed a singer who could pull it off and do it the way it's supposed to be done," McCarty explains. "And we got the singer."
Edwards' powerful and expressive voice perfectly fronts the instrumental attack. The group, now calling themselves The Hell Drivers (appropriately, a term used to describe automobile thrill-based productions performing at fairs and racetracks since the 1930s), decided to keep the group going and focus on being a sort of Detroit rock revue, best evidenced on their CD, Live from Detroit, featuring classics such as "Turn Up the Radio," "Jenny Take a Ride" and "Money (That's What I Want)."
The Hell Drivers set consisted of a full night of songs that Badanjek and McCarty had written or recorded over the last 45 years. They added a keyboard player (Danny Taylor) at the suggestion of their old friend, Bill Blackwell, to fatten the sound. ...

Fascinating Photos That Capture Famous Artists' Friendships
French photographer Lucien Clergue, who penned the autobiography Picasso My Friend, passed away this month. "I had a good fortune to meet Pablo Picasso at a bullring. I had stopped playing violin, and for the lack of funds I could not go to school in Paris. I started taking photographs with different cameras owned by a man close to my home," Clergue wrote. "Picasso signed one of the print, not my best, but now it is the most expensive. When I reached the age of 20 I was still working in a factory, but I was taking photographs of five children dressed with clothes designed by me [inspired by Picasso's circus paintings]. I was trying to make Picasso happy: he had said at the bullring, 'I want to see more prints.'" Their relationship lasted until Picasso's death in 1973, and that close friendship is revealed in photos of the artists together and Clergue's portraits of the painter in his studio. Inspired by Clergue, we gathered other photos of famous artist… Read More

Woody Allen to 'Toy Story': Pop Culture's Greatest Homages to Picasso
For a man who passed away 40 years ago, Pablo Picasso has had little trouble getting his name out these days. This week, his masterpiece Guernica, which depicted the bombing of a Basque village during the Spanish Civil War, will be welcomed as a source of inspiration in the conflict-weary National Center for Modern Art in Tunisia. Earlier this month, the apartment where Picasso painted Guernica became an object of dispute when the Chambre des Huissiers de Justice, which donated the space to a local arts group, decided the apartment was too valuable to give away, and sought to reclaim it. And yesterday, a Picasso painting worth $11.5 million was seized by US authorities in New York. According to the Associated Press, it will be held for the Italian government indefinitely, pending the outcome of criminal proceedings in an Italian court against the collector Gabriella Amati, who stands accused of smuggling. … Read More

10 Great Works of Literature and the Famous Artworks That Should Illustrate Them
Literature and art often work best together. Walk into the New York Public Library and you'll find a heaven of books amid decadent paintings.

More recently, Taiyo Onorato and Nico Krebs came up with Bookcam, a sculpture that, as its title suggests, is a working camera made out of books. And The Book Lovers, the Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts' current exhibition, which features novels by Carl Andre, Salvador Dalí, and Andy Warhol, is all about the relationship between books and art.

The Art World Redefined Through Contemporary Slang
A recent article in The Guardian brought attention to Urban Dictionary entries that redefine the giants of literature through contemporary slang. They range from the stupid (JK Rowling: being under the effects of cannabis (J) and ketamine (K)), to the sublime (Kerouac: to wander aimlessly for the giddy thrill). The New York Daily News cited the entries as being a "history of literature as seen by millions of 17-year-olds today," but as The Guardian points out, some familiarity with the writer's canon is required to make the quips successful — which means there has to be some literacy at play here.
We wanted to see if the same rules applied to the art world, so we clung to our brain cells (just in case) and went digging through Urban Dictionary's website for slang versions of famous artists and related works. See what we found past the break, and let us know if you have your own redefinitions to contribute. (Diebenkorn, for instance, is just screaming for appropriation.) … Read More

Rose Gowen's Reviews > Independence Day
Independence Day
by Richard Ford
by Richard Ford
Rose Gowen's review
May 29, 09
I've been thinking about this book a lot lately, too. I really liked it. I didn't think The Sportswriter was all that great, and I have no urge to read any other Richard Ford. I am turned off by his writerly persona, and I started an essay by him in Bookforum the other day which was too terrible to finish-- but I liked Independence Day.
The idea from that book that keeps coming to me is the idea of the "existence period"-- I have to look it up, I can't remember exactly what it was about.

I can't think of another writer whose assurance of his own greatness is so at odds with his mediocrity than Richard Ford.
message 2: by Steve (last edited Jun 01, 2009 09:12AM) (new)
I tried The Sportswriter years ago, but coudn't finish it. I read a collection of short stories, and it was OK. He also edited an anthology of Best of Short Stories (Granta?), which didn't do much for me. I don't know anything about his persona, but after all these years, I think I know the type.

What lies ahead for inbox marketing in 2008?Jan 15, 2008
With 2007 behind us, it's time to dust off the crystal ball and see what 2008 has in store for the e-mail marketing industry. We're only days into the New Year, but I get a sense that this will be a banner year for both e-mail and other forms of inbox marketing, including banners within newsletters. Recent forecasts from JP Morgan and others support this perception. So, it is fair to note that my notions may be more substantiated than a mere hunch.

More Tips on How to Get The Best Deal on a Car
Two weeks ago, K. McCaughna of Nashville, Tenn., asked whether paying cash for a new car is a good way to get the lowest price. Readers have been commenting ever since. It turned out that dealers usually give lower prices to people who finance their vehicles. That gives them a chance to tweak the finance terms to generate more profit over time.
Journal Community
What do you think is the best way to get a good deal? Join the All Things Autos group in Journal Community.
Many readers shared ideas – some tested – for getting the lowest price while retaining the benefits of an interest-free cash transaction. Here are three that capture the main points.
- Why not get the best of both worlds? Finance the car and pay it off with your first payment. Unless there is a penalty for prepayment it's the smart way to go. I've done it with no consequences.
-- Rudy Rosenberg II,
Westbury, N.Y.
- I've asked the same question many times and have asked a friend who was a sales manager at a BMW/Audi dealer here in New Hampshire. The bottom line is that you do get a better price if you finance. So, what I've done is to make sure there is no prepay penalty and just paid the loan off in the first 30 days. I get the better price and the salesperson gets the sale and is credited with selling financing too.
-- Bob Hatcher,
Thornton, N.H.
- Tell the dealer all during the negotiation that you will take their financing. Make your final deal, then just before closing, tell the dealer you decided to use outside financing. Watch how fast the interest rate drops as the dealer will come back to you with a better offer. Dealers would rather shave a few percentages off their back-end financing profit when faced with the prospect of making zero when customers get outside financing.
-- Rich Teplitsky,
Chester, N.J.

They stated although the car is front-wheel drive, Michelin's research found it is best to mount them on the rear. My dealership told me to place them on the front because the car is front-wheel drive. If I were to buy two tires, where should they be mounted?
-- Stuart Lukov,
Cherry Hill, N.J.
A: Stick with Michelin's advice, as strange as it may sound. When you buy two new snow tires they should go on the back of the vehicle, whether it has front-, rear- or all-wheel drive. It may seem to make more sense to put the tires with the best traction on the pair of wheels that are powering the car. But in fact it is more important to maximize traction at the rear to prevent "fishtailing" or side-to-side movement of the rear end that can lead to a loss of control. You're better off compromising traction at the front because you have a measure of direct control over the front wheels even if their traction is somewhat compromised.
Of course, the first thing tire experts say is that you should get four tires, not just two.
Q: I have three cars but my wife and I don't put many miles on them. Even after 9 months, I may not have driven 3,000 miles on any one car. In this case, when should I change the oil? Does the oil breakdown after 9 months? I do try to mix the driving between highway and stop and go driving. (Sometimes a car will sit for a week without driving it.)
-- Robert Tozzo,
New York
A: I think you can wait until you reach the 3,000-mile mark. While it is true that changing the oil is an inexpensive and effective way of prolonging engine life, it is also a source of unnecessary anxiety.
Most broad recommendations regarding maintenance intervals are fairly conservative, including the 3,000-mile rule for oil changes. Even cars that are used regularly on the highway don't necessarily accumulate 3,000 miles in a year because they aren't used every day. Such vehicles do not necessarily fall under the "extreme driving" category.
You mentioned mixing up the driving, which is a good idea. You should also try to use the cars equally and not leave any of them sitting for weeks between trips.

The very center top of the mounds are turning brown, brown, brown;looking dead, dead, dead, the tentacles are healthy as can be and spreading nicely. I don't believe foot traffic has been excessive tho.
We've had enuf rain, and additional sprinkling is in order too.
Is this a problem? Will it "come back" healthy next spring?
It wasn't that way last year when the plants were newly placed into the soil. Oh woe is me................jaemy

'In The Future There Will Be Birds' and 'The Marriage of the Corn King' for COSMOS Magazine
These are two piece I did for COSMOS Magazine's short story section. 'In The Future There Will Be Birds' is up on their website, you can read it here.
Had to do these very quickly which forced me to adopt a slightly different simplified approach, mainly the line art being left in, along with a less detailed realistic over all look. Quite liked the outcome.
Lilian at the Station
Hello internet, it's been a little while. I've had a fair amount of work over the last few months, all of which I can't show here for quite a while, and because of all the work I've had no time to do personal stuff. Much.
The is a piece I started months ago but was never finished, until my agency asked if I could complete it for their feature on me. Which I was very happy to do.
This is my character Lilian from a story I've been working on for a while now. It's quite early on in the story, here Lilian has just arrived alone in the big city for the first time. After jumping off the small two story train Lilian has just spun around to find the biggest long distance train she's ever seen pulling into the station, at least 10 stories high!
Any way, happy new year! I'll hopefully upload some new work soon!

Happy Birthday Papa Gnome
Birthday present for my dad. We all recently went away to Totnes in Devon and had a great time walking over the hills and visited the amazing Wistman's Woods. But the best part was when we visited Pixie Land, a tiny little cafe / gnome garden where they had a box of gnome hats and waist coats for visitors. So obviously we spent the next half an hour taking pictures and making videos of ourselves dressed up as gnomes.

Quick painting from reference I did this morning. My girlfriend and I recently went down to Totnes in Devon with my family where I took a heck load of photos for references, so today I finally used one. I'm going to do some more but next time I'm going to use the photo as a loose ref and do something a bit more fantastical.

Just another day of Hurricane Melissa taking Indy by storm
With the flurry of summertime activity, it seems like a century ago I made downtown Indy my home for a week.
It's no secret I had a wonderful time at the 2013 National Holstein Convention and, as I attend these events year after year, I've come to realize that although framed with the same business schedule and focus, each convention has its own personality.
Yes, being hosted by different states each year is reason enough for the vast differences, but honestly, it's the personalities of the people that make each convention not only different, but special.
I love Indiana Holstein breeders. Maybe it's because they live nearby and I interact with them more frequently, but I think it's because they are just really great folks. As I roamed the convention halls, every person in their official Indiana Holstein red shirt was as nice and cordial as the next. Even though they were busy, they all seemed to have enough time to visit or answer my questions.
Each day brought something fun and exciting, and this day was no exception, the day the black-and-white-spotted Indy racecar arrived. If getting caught taking pictures in the American Dairy Science Assoc. meetings wasn't enough trouble, I also got busted for sitting on the fender of the genuine racecar featured in the sale arena.
As we snapped a few photos, the authorities came in and began telling us that was a big no-no. Hustling away from the car, acting as though it wasn't me they just caught getting a picture with it, I decided to lay low for the rest of the afternoon and act like it didn't really happen. Feeling like I had gotten into enough trouble for one week, I was ready for things to settle down.
Later that evening, as I walked through the crowd at the Indy Night dinner visiting with people and enjoying the social atmosphere, two friends of mine from the convention – let's call them Charmaine and Lucinda – stopped me dead in my tracks.
Charmaine: Melissa, we heard you were posing for pictures in the Indy car earlier today, is that right?
Me: Yes, oh, that was so fun until I got busted, but I've been trying to lay low.
Lucinda: Yes, well, that's what we need to talk to you about – apparently the Indy car has been damaged.
Me: What? Seriously? You're joking, right?
Charmaine: No, we're serious; it's been damaged and because the surveillance cameras recorded you sitting on the fender, we know it was you who damaged it.
Me: Really? Come on – cameras?
Lucinda: Yes, really, and you're going to have to pay for the damages – apparently there was a hairline fracture in the fender.
Me: Oh for heaven's sake … you're joking.
(At this point, I'm beginning to believe them and wondering how much this stupid picture was going to cost me, and feeling really bad that I did it and so embarrassed at the whole incident. I was convinced my name was Mud in Indiana and they would never let me back in the state for another Holstein event – and I really liked these people. Ugh.)
Charmaine: Yup, we got it all on camera, I'm sorry, but you're going to have to pay for it.
I looked at Lucinda, hoping this whole thing was just a bad dream … then, she broke down and started laughing. I was so relieved – and we all had a good laugh at their flawless acting job and my gullible reaction.
Like I said, each convention has different personalities that make these events so special. Even though I got busted taking pictures at the ADSA meetings and for sitting on the fender of an Indy car, thank you, Indiana, for an unforgettable time!

The Tsak
Senior Member
for some reason everytime i play karthus the consumable items cannot be used unless i buy em and my bag is already full
they still cost money
and can be sold back
but cannot be used in the inventory
its sorta annoying
noticed this too, wards mainly. sometimes it works, sometimes not.
This also happened to me last game. I placed one ward, actually, but then later I could not place wards. I tried selling it back and buying another and that did not fix it. I suspect I also could not activate Zhonya's Ring, but in the confusion of the teamfight it's possible I got stunned by someone, especially since after I died (Zhonya's would have prevented it ;_; ) the active was working again.
Signed. Had it happen. Didnt know it was specific to only Karthas.
I couldn't use a potion of brilliance. I could move it, sell it, just couldn't USE the ****ed thing.
Signed happening all day to me
Had the same, I think it only happens if all your inventory slots are in use (the consumable taking one of those 6).
QA Analyst
So, Singed and Karthus are the culprits here?
Anyone have any repro steps? This happened to me yesterday on live as well but I can't get it to work again. Any ideas?
Junior Member
They are typing "Signed", as in - "I am signing my name to this document", not Singed the champion.
This error occurs (so far) only with karthus.
i know karthus has a bug with cant use wards if they are in the 6th slot happens alot to a friend.
