1. Introduce yourself!
My name is Daniel Albaugh. I started touring with peta2 back in February of 2009, so it's been more than a year and half of doing outreach on all kinds of tours—concert tours, festival tours like Warped Tour and Rock the Bells, and also college tours. I started as a tour contractor, basically hitting the lines at events, or working all day on college campuses, signing people up for petitions and pledges, and distributing PETA literature and videos.
2. What are the biggest challenges and the most rewarding aspects of being a peta2 Road Warrior?
The biggest challenge for me at the moment is just that before I started touring for peta2, I had been touring in hardcore bands since I was 18—so for about 8 years. I still love traveling, but as I approach the 30 year mark in my life, I think I'd like to simplify things a bit … but oddly enough, the traveling is also one of the most rewarding aspects of working for PETA in this manner. The crew and I go from city to city, seeing some incredible sights when we have time, eating world-class vegan food every day, and then our job is to bring the message of animal rights to young people, many of whom are not familiar with the subject. To be able to be out there and make that kind of connection with the public is a great feeling, and I think it is truly important work … I like that my job is to promote the idea that all individuals deserve respect and compassion, whether they are human or not. I consider myself lucky for that opportunity.
3. What was your first introduction to veganism and animal rights? Was there a specific band, book, etc. that influenced your decision to go veg/vegan?
To be fair, my introduction to animal rights was my mother. She was vegetarian since long before I was born, and I vaguely recall going to anti-fur demonstrations with her when I was 3 or 4 years old. There are videos of those protests somewhere in one of her closets, and I keep telling some of my friends at PETA that I'll dig them up someday to show them. We'll see about that (haha) … Anyhow, I didn't really consider how right my mother was about not eating animals until I was 14 or 15, and I discovered hardcore bands like Earth Crisis, Another Victim, and One King Down who had very strong animal rights messages in their songs. Propagandhi and Good Riddance were some other punk bands that I loved that talked a lot about animal rights. When I got involved in the hardcore scene in my hometown of Houston, Texas, there was an animal rights collective called Houston Animal Rights Team (HART) who made a strong presence at shows and festivals, tabling and leafleting. I thought that was really cool, and it really taught me the important connection between music and activism.
4. As someone who's toured for years, either with peta2 or with your band Die Young, what's your experience been as a vegan on the road?
I stopped eating meat in 1998, but I didn't go vegan until late 2005 … All I can say at this point is that I wish I had become vegan sooner. Within a year of going vegan, I stopped having all the chronic allergy problems I had suffered from, which as I've learned, stemmed from eating dairy. I could breathe easier, and my immunity improved by leaps and bounds, which was a great help for me as a vocalist in a touring hardcore band. I stopped losing my voice as often as I used to, and eventually I stopped losing it at all … Being vegan is becoming easier all the time—not just in the US, but all over the world. I have eaten at vegan restaurants in Mexico, Central America, Europe, East Asia, and all over North America. There are vegan options everywhere, so there's no reason to fear about going hungry as a vegan. And for anyone that knows me, it is well known that I am always having a blast eating a ton of food every day, no matter where I am.
5. How did Band of Mercy come together? Did you know going into it that you wanted it to be a vegan band, or did it organically move in that direction once all the members were on board?
Die Young officially played its last show in October 2009, but we weren't much of an active band for about a year prior to that. It was around the time that Die Young officially broke up that I asked our drummer, James Rynearson, if he wanted to start a new band solely focused on promoting veganism while playing a style closer to punk's roots. James and I love most of the same bands, so he was excited about the idea. Even if we aren't going to tour regularly in Band of Mercy, he and I both feel a need to keep playing hardcore and punk music. And likewise, as we get older, promoting a positive and healthy vegan lifestyle is something that is increasingly important to each of us. So from the start, we set out to make a vegan hardcore band that was catchy and more humorous than any vegan hardcore band that came before it. Currently, James and I are the only members, but we're going to focus on filling the lineup out to play shows in 2011.
6. What's the best advice you have for someone who wants to be more involved with animal rights but doesn't know where to start?
There are a million ways to get involved. I used to not know where to start, but honestly, getting involved with PETA is a great start, because PETA has the means to get literature and materials out to so many people. You can help at protests, set up your own protests, talk to people and distribute literature at events, set up a student group at your school, work on animal rights campaigns at your school … the list goes on. Beyond finding an animal rights organization that you like and getting in touch with them, I think there are some other things we should all take into consideration when it comes to being activists. Number one—read up on the history of the animal rights movement, learn about the campaigns that major animal rights organizations have going on, learn about factory farming, and learn about nutrition. If we are going to go out in the world and change people's minds to help animals, we have to know what we are talking about, so getting educated is a must, and that's something you can start doing right now. Number two—get in shape. Going to the gym or caring about your physical health does not make you a jock (unless you want to be a jock haha). Eating well and working out is going to make you feel and look better. You'll be happier, and a better example of veganism. So in a nutshell—be vegan (and be proud of it), contact animal rights organizations out there who will help you get involved, educate yourself, and get in shape. Doing these things will make you a badass at life, and you will save more animals in the process.

My exposure came in many forms. I am a huge fan of the band Bring Me The Horizon, and the vocalist, Oli Sykes is a vegetarian, so I did some research and stumbled upon the peta2 website. This website has turned me into a full fledged vegetarian, and I am starting a club at my highschool.
Thanks Peta2!!!

A couple years ago, while researching vegetarianism on the internet because of my friend Samantha, I found that eating meat was wrong and she made the right choice. While watching all of Peta2's videos, like Meet Your Meat, I ordered a vegetarian starter kit, and read the materials that came with it. I sat down with my parents and gave them each one and explained why that I felt it was wrong to eat animals. They said it was the circle of life, when it's really not.
They now support me since my chemotherapy doctor told them that being vegetarian is a healthy lifestyle as long as you get enough nutrients. I was then, and still am now, a very very proud VEGETARIAN.

My first introduction to animal rights was through a high school internship I did my senior year. We gave tours behind our school where there is a wetland preserve. We learned about the different habitats and fun facts about that animals that lived in that habitat. I got into peta2 through a friend and became a vegetarian and since then I have been steadily getting more involved in animal rights.

Like Daniel, my first introduction to animal rights was going to hardcore and punk rock shows, where I was introduced to many different forms of thought, and almost none of which I encountered outside of shows. Through the years, my knowledge of animal rights and activism grew, and I can thank the punk rock scene for spurring me to become vegetarian. Animals rule, and should not be eaten. Die Young rules too. I'm glad I was able to play in that amazing band for a summer.

I had been thinking more and more about cutting out meat but i wasnt sure . it was actually a guy i had a crush on in grade 10that helped. We were 15 and he was a veggie for 10 years. After he told me about making the choice on his own at 5 years old i knew i could do it. A few months later i found peta and they gave me reassurance that i was doing the right thing.

text: It's my understanding that warp capable voidships need navigators to steer them through the warp safely. These navigators are a special breed of mutant (as portrayed in Rogue Trader) but presumably, just because of demand, they must crop up everywhere. However in the Black Crusade the fact that there is a Navigate (Warp) skill seems to suggest that anyone can potentially learn how to navigate a ship safely through the warp… a skill that can be learned at any time. This runs contrary to what I understood was the case at least, does this mean that there are other ways to navigate a voidship through the warp, such as using technology, without the need of a cyclopic mutant?

I've had these for a few months and like them more every time I wear them.
Comments about Sugoi RS Glove 2010:
I use these gloves when the weather warms up. I've been happy with them so far. For me, gloves are a fairly highturnover item so I'm looking for something that do the job at a reasonable price. If I can throw them in the washing machine it's a bonus (can't do that with leather).
They don;t make my hands too hot. Snug fit = comfortable on long rides.
All in all I'd recommend them.

Like the gloves....feel like a good fit. My hands seem to go to sleep more quickly at first. Hoping this changes up as they wear in. Still wearing them.....good buy on sale. I like thick padding and these qualify.
Comments about Sugoi RS Glove 2010:
They fit well and feel like they are good quality. Used on my mountain bike and they seem to hold up quite well and are thick enough to absorb bumps but are not too thick to be hot in the Summer. I plan to use them on my road bike also.
Only 4 stars because they dont have straps at all to attach them together when not in use. Also I cant vouch for how long they will last but they seem like they will hold up well.
I got them on sale for half price and at that price they are a great value. Not sure if I would have bought them for full price.

Diacneal Soap-Free Gel Cleanser
This gentle yet effective formula is fine for normal to oily skin.
Moisturizing Self-Tanning Lotion
This is a very standard, but good, self-tanning lotion for normal to dry skin.
Add to Faves?
Eau Thermale Avene At-a-Glance
Strengths: Some good cleansers; every sunscreen provides reliable UVA protection; an effective psoriasis cream; a couple of praiseworthy lip balms.
Weaknesses: Mostly overpriced for what you get; repetitive, unimpressive moisturizer formulas; products for sensitive skin contain fragrance or other potentially irritating ingredients; the redness-reducing products simply trade one problem for another.
Building an entire skin-care line on a single concept, however meaningless that concept may be, is often all it takes to capture the attention of consumers, just because it sounds so convincing. Such is the case with Eau Thermale Avene, a France-based line whose claim to fame is the thermal spring water in its products.
The company's history is laced with romanticized folklore of the allegedly restorative power of this water, with some tales dating back to the 1700s. Building a skin-care line around what was known (or, more accurately, unknown) about skin 300 years ago doesn't make sense, because 300 years ago no one knew anything about skin care or how skin functions; certainly no one knew about sun damage or free-radical damage. For goodness sakes, women in the 1700s were using face powders laced with lead, and who would want to emulate that? Still, the stories Eau Thermale Avene concocts must be convincing some people to buy their products or we wouldn't have been contacted several times per week by readers asking me to review this line.
Avene maintains that their thermal spring water is curative not only because of its historical proof (more anecdotes than proof), but also scientifically because of its low mineral content and pure, pristine source. The company's owner (Pierre Fabre Laboratories) claims to have conducted over 150 clinical studies. However, as you might suspect, there only a handful of published studies, and they all are related to the supposed healing power of Avene's thermal spring water when applied to skin that's been compromised by exposure to radiation or by cosmetic corrective procedures, such as light-emitting devices. Their studies showed that the water has soothing properties and that it helped damaged skin heal faster when compared with the effects of another type of spring water, the standard post-burn treatment, or randomly selected skin-care products.
As convincing as that sounds, the studies don't hold water for several reasons: first, the improvement seen from Avene's thermal spring water was nominal compared with the control; second, the studies were sponsored by Avene; and third, the studies didn't show how the spring water may have fared against numerous established topical anti-irritants or other FDA-approved skin protectants (Sources: Annals of Dermatology and Venereology, Special Edition, January 2008, pages 5–10; Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, March 2007, pages 31–35; and Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, September 2007, pages 924–928).
Avene offers additional studies on their Web site, but the majority again are published in the company's own publications; and none were peer-reviewed. Bottom line: There is absolutely no evidence that any type of thermal spring water allows skin to resist or correct signs of aging. Helping skin maintain its barrier is great, but there is abundant research showing that substances such as ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin do a far better job.
To its credit, Avene does offer some worthwhile products for sensitive skin. Yet they also offer products that can be problematic for sensitive skin because they contain fragrance and other potentially harmful ingredients. More important is the lack of significant anti-irritants that could have been extremely helpful for those with sensitive skin.
For the most part, unless you're a believer in the company's thermal spring water, there is little reason to get excited about their products. They offer some good cleansers, alternatives to retinol (using a similar ingredient known as retinal and retinaldehyde, which is one of the more effective derivatives of retinol), and some basic yet effective moisturizers for sensitive skin that's also dry.
Given this line's penchant for extolling antiquated skin-care fables, it shouldn't be surprising that their products lack an impressive selection of state-of-the-art ingredients whose benefits for skin are substantiated by reams of research. Interestingly, many of the claims prevalent throughout the cosmetics industry are found here, too, but without the formulas to support them and to actually deliver remarkable antiwrinkle results.

On the eve of the 2013 General Assembly session, Gov. Bob McDonnell is proposing increasing the state's sales tax and eliminating the gas tax in an overhaul of the way the state funds its transportation needs.He wants to hike the state and local sales tax to 5.8 percent from 5 percent and permanently shift the revenue source for transportation to a tax that is rising from one that is increasingly in decline.If lawmakers approve the plan, Virginia would be the first state in the country without a gas tax, according to the administration.The multi-component plan would also increase the motor vehicle registration fees by $15, add a $100 fee for alternative fuel vehicles and capture more Internet sales taxes, pending Congressional action.

PORTLAND A Portland man is accused of using his dreadlocks to choke his girlfriend in a domestic violence attack.
The woman was taken to a Portland hospital with numerous, non-life threatening injuries, according to Sgt. Pete Simpson with the Portland Police Bureau.
She told officers that Caleb Grotberg attacked her just after 2 a.m. Monday at a residence in the 3200 block of Southeast 22nd Avenue. Her detailed description helped police find Grotberg in the neighborhood and arrest him.
Grotberg, 32, was charged with assault, kidnapping, attempted assault, menacing and strangulation; all are domestic violence felony crimes. He was booked into the Multnomah County Jail and will be arraigned on Tuesday.

It's always hard to get an active player to talk about how he will be remembered, but Jamison seems to have given the subject some thought. At the end of our time together in El Segundo, I asked him about how a championship might change the way people think about him. Gasol, Howard, and Kobe were shooting free throws nearby and Jamison turned his head and looked over at his new teammates. "If I win a championship, I'll be put in a different category," he said. "I know where I am with the totals, the averages, the scoring list or whatever. But I didn't win in high school. I didn't win in college. To have such a roller coaster career in the pros and to be a professional night-in and night-out and to know I put in the work and did all those things I needed to do to be successful, man … " And here, the composed, intelligent veneer with which Jamison conducts his media responsibilities broke down for a second. He smiled broadly, looked up at the rafters, and said, "Man, I deserve it. I want one bad. I envision it all. I envision holding that trophy up, I envision going to that parade, I envision getting that ring. It's the only thing that keeps me motivated, having my name associated with a champion. I just deserve it."
I like him already for this team. This is the kind of hunger we need.

To the editor:
No labels — just an "American" without any ethnic name or hyphen preceding that word.
Still, if there are to be such folks, allow the word "American" always to come first, then the hyphen and whatever else one desires to write down.
Ethnic heritage and race are something to be proud of, yet none of us choose either one or our eye color, height, etc. But we do choose to either put "American" first or last in reference to the above and that applies to all colors of skin and ethnic backgrounds — the list is endless.
What's the point? If one lives in this nation of ours then one is an American — race and ethnic roots not withstanding. Is not our nation called the United States of America? Rhetorical as it is, there are not other names in that quote or hyphens that literally separate two words and figuratively separate Americans yet only in the minds of those who utterly insist on preceding the word "American" with another word and a hyphen.
So, to please all those who insist on the hyphenation, why not just phrase it "American-Indian" or American-Russian. The meaning of the ethnic or skin color word will not in the least become diluted. If one lives in this nation of ours, then one is an "American" first and foremost.
Going beyond that, where are the majority of original Americans living today? They live on hundreds of so-called Indian or "Native-American" reservations.
Notwithstanding the gambling casinos aboard some reservations, most American Indians live well under the so-called poverty line and over 60 percent are young children. If any of us has a legitimate right to claim this nation as theirs, it is the American Indian.
What if, today, a new race or ethnic background of millions of people landed on our shores and eventually decided to put us on reservations?
Unthinkable? Do not for a moment rule out any such scenario.
Thus, as long as our politically correct mainstream liberal media continues to use the word "American" last, preceded by a hyphen, and our do-nothing lawmakers are afraid of speaking the truth, this nation will continue to be hyphenated to an ever-greater degree than today. No foreign power is influencing our nation to do this; it is all coming from within.
Go ahead then and do as you please. It only shows where one's heart really lies. Words mean things. We always talk today about our nation being last at one thing or another — and who is to blame?
Look within and discern the truth — if you can. We have experienced enough division, but unfortunately this is but the beginning of the end. The end of what? Again, allow each of us to discern for ourselves — rights given us by our Heavenly Father and by our Constitution. Keep the faith.

Recipe by crazymary98
"Fantabulous colored, bite-sized macaroons. Divide batter into thirds and color one-third pink and flavor with raspberry flavoring; color one-third yellow and flavor with lemon flavoring; color one-third pale blue and flavor with vanilla. Fill and make sandwich cookies with filling of choice, like peach jam or strawberry preserves."

egg whites
6 tablespoons
superfine (castor) sugar
1 cup
finely ground almonds
1 1/2 teaspoons
finely ground almonds
1 1/3 cups
confectioners' sugar
They turned out easier to make than I expected! The hardest part was to make them perfectly circular! I got around that using the cupcake baking sheet. Just make sure to use the paper cups and remove them when still a bit warm, CAREFULLY!! And voila! You have perfectly round shaped macaroons without any effort! :-)
The heat is very important and it is the thin line between a good macaron and a disaster. By the way this is not a "macaroon" (no coconut cookie) but it is a "macaron".
Trust a seller who sells rusty forks as stainless steel but never trust your oven temperature :) Buy a oven thermometer and check what you set the oven and how hot it is actually and adjust your oven until you get steady correct temperature from the thermometer. You'd be surprised that your lovely friend (oven) is lying 95% of times and your new best friend w,ll be that small "in oven thermometer".

I have made macarons twice before and was fairly successful. With this recipe, however, my macarons stuck to the parchment paper and that has never happened to me before. I liked that the macarons aren't as sweet as the ones I've made before and seem lighter. That's why I would like to try this recipe again and see if maybe I should have baked a little longer... I'm not sure what the cause of my problem was but these cookies are difficult to master so I will troubleshoot until I get them right. I have previously used buttercream as a filling and it is great (strawberry or lemon/lime) but I went with dark chocolate ganache this time and it is decadent! Update: Made again and decided to bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes, then switch cookie sheets (I moved the one that was on the upper rack to the bottom rack and viceversa) and bake for 6 more minutes. They didn't stick to the parchment paper this time. I added a few drops of creme de menthe oil to half of the batter and colored it green. Again, I used chocolate ganache to stuff them with. Very good!
No, I didn't make these but I did read the previous review and she had problems getting the macaroons off the paper. I pipe almond macaroons onto parchment paper and to remove them, I turn the paper over and wet the bottom with just enough water to soak through and loosen the macaroons. A second or two will do it and you can peel them off.
I have been nervous about trying french macaroons, but this came out perfectly! The second time I made them I made a few changes to make things a little easier. First, I put my almond flour in the food processor and pulsed it a few times. I had a really hard time getting the AF through my sieve the first time around. Seemed to make it easier. Second, use a silpat if you are able instead of parchment. It makes a huge difference with them sticking. I had no problems.
Temperature is too high. Drop to 300 F. for about 15 minutes
this was by far the best macaroon recipe i have ever tried!!!! the other recipes i have tried always crack! but not with this recipe
Amazing. I have searched the web top to bottom to find the simplest and most fool-proof recipe for these. I started with this one, and couldn't be more thrilled that I did. I followed recipe exactly as recommended. I used parchment paper, as they stuck to my silpat. A couple comments: I made two batches: Batch #1, I didn't beat the egg whites and castor sugar as long and baked exactly as recommended. They turned out vibrant in color, and not overcooked, a bit chewy and got rave reviews. Batch #2, I beat the egg white and castor sugar a bit longer (it was a bit more stiff) and then baked on convection. These were very crisp, not as vibrant in color, but still maintained a great flavor. The texture was extremely different. These also got good reviews, but cracked more and weren't as pretty as my first batch. They also weren't as easy to fill with the buttercream b/c they were more delicate. They did, however, fall right off the parchment paper with no issues! I made yellow lemon with a raspberry buttercream, green mint with a dark chocolate buttercream and purple almond/vanilla with rasp on some and chocolate on others. Went off beautifully for dinner party. MMMMMMMMmmmm…:-)

After a strong 2012, Boeing faces challenging new year
Michael O'Leary / Herald file
The Boeing Co. delivered two aircraft to Korean Air on Feb. 6 in a ceremony at the Future of Flight Aviation Center in Mukilteo: a 747-8 freighter (left) and a 777 freighter.
Michael O'Leary / Herald file
Boeing analysts and customers expect the company to formally offer the 787-10, something it didn't do in 2012.
Michael O'Leary / Herald File
The Boeing Co.'s 1,000th 777 aircraft rolled out of the jet maker's factory in Everett on Feb. 14. Production on the popular jet increased in 2012, but Boeing still hasn't said when it will unveil an updated 777X.
Not much, at least.
Boeing won't announce its final delivery and order numbers for 2012 until sometime in early January. But the Chicago-based aerospace company is expected to beat its European rival Airbus in both sales and jet deliveries.
Still, Boeing doesn't have much time to rest on its laurels with a challenging 2013 ahead.
Here are a few highlights from 2012 and a look to 2013:
787 and 747-8
After years of embarrassing delays on the 787 and 747-8, Boeing handed over the first 747-8 passenger plane and ramped up 787 production to a pace of five jets per month in 2012.
"They certainly met their delivery goals on the 787 and 747," said Scott Hamilton, an analyst with Issaquah-based Leeham Co.
The company planned to deliver between 70 and 85 aircraft among the 787-8 and 747-8 programs for the year. Boeing had delivered 62 by the end of November. And within a 24-hour period, Boeing handed over another seven 787s, Randy Tinseth, vice president of marketing for commercial airplanes, noted last week.
Boeing won't silence its doubters on the 787 program until the company meets its production goal of 10 787s per month, which is targeted for the end of 2013. That's a key milestone on the program's path to being profitable.
David E. Strauss, an aerospace analyst at UBS Financial Services, said in a note to investors this month that his analysis indicates Dreamliner production "costs are not declining rapidly enough for (Boeing) to come close to its target for break-even 787 cash flow by early 2015."
Another complication in the 787 ramp-up will be adding the next version of the Dreamliner, the 787-9, into the production system. Boeing will begin final assembly of the first 787-9, which seats about 40 passengers more than the 787-8, next summer and plans to have that aircraft in the air by the end of 2013.
Next year, analysts and customers alike also will expect Boeing to do something it didn't get done in 2012: formally offer the larger 787-10 to customers. Boeing officials have expressed confidence in the 787-10's technical performance and sales potential but hasn't begun selling the next Dreamliner.
As for the 747-8, analyst Hamilton notes that in 2013 Boeing needs to fine-tune the aircraft so that it meets the specifications that Boeing used in selling the refreshed jumbo jet to customers.
Although Boeing increased production on the popular twin-aisle jet in 2012, the company left a major question unanswered: When will it come out with an updated 777X?
In October, Boeing CEO Jim McNerney indicated that the yet-to-be-launched 777X may not enter commercial service until after 2020, despite pressure from key 777 customers for a refreshed 777 before the end of the decade. Analysts have differing opinions on the urgency of a 777X plan.
Backpedaling on either the 787-10 or the 777X could be a "bad self-inflicted wound" to Boeing, analyst Richard Aboulafia, with the Teal Group, suggested in August.
"The two new planes would cement Boeing's market dominance in the international long-haul market," he noted.
Airbus' latest challenger to the 777X is its A50-1000. Since the European jet maker hasn't locked in the design on it and is behind on other versions of the A350, other industry observers think Boeing can bide its time.
All of Boeing's plans for 2013 could be for naught if the jetmaker doesn't reach a deal with the Society of Professional Engineering Employees in Aerospace.
Next year "could be the year that SPEEA goes on strike," Hamilton said.
The union represents 23,000 engineers and technical workers, who design, test and sign off on deliveries of Boeing aircraft. Although it's not known for striking, SPEEA staged a 40-day strike in 2000, which led to Boeing delivering 50 fewer jets than planned that year.
Negotiations between Boeing and SPEEA began in April but the two sides seemed more at odds at the end of 2012 than they had been throughout contract talks. A federal mediator, who was brought in after negotiations broke down, suggested the two sides take most of December as a cooling-off period. Talks resume Jan. 9 but SPEEA's executive director, Ray Goforth, has said the union could strike as early as February.

Looking good. There's a lot of white space on your pages, fill them up.. draw bigger or draw more-- make use of the whole paper. Also, with your cloth studies, draw more of the cloth instead of a little piece, for example.. draw an entire shirt. The setup matters too, even draw the background, it's all part of the practice.
April 18th, 2005 #3

May 5th, 2005 #8
Very good muscle studies. The latest hands were good too, ´tho I think u should mark the bone structure more to get a better feel of tha hand, and besides, it's good practise. Try study the feet also. U got a book about the human anatomy, btw? If not; get one, read and make your own nots and studies, etc..
Doing great, keep it up!

Tigermilk made a good point here.
Test drawing the skeleton and then doing the same skeleton with muscles on it.
And the bicep looks to pointy, but I don't know, maybe they look like that
May 16th, 2005 #10
Tigermilk: thank you, i will study feet till next time. your crit is very helpful.
Pencilator: ok the bicep was odd anyway thank you
and here are some new ones. c & c are wellcome
a portrait of my girlfirend. speedpaint

thats all for this time, cya
June 19th, 2005 #11
hi there!
my critique would be:
1. keep doing anatomy studies
2. dont draw yourself tired of doing studies, mix em into imaginery pieces...like, draw an orc but you do a muscle study while you do it, in that way you're practising imagination and drawing accurate muscles.
3. break it down more (values) try to draw all the different values there is... the world isnt black and white... (oooh, poetic )
4. draw draw draw draw draw draw draw draw draw!
and you're on your way man, killer stuff so far, last posts are the best... like the guy flexing his shoulder/back towards us.. got something there!
cheers man and keep on fighting!

Try to think of the figure as a whole, instead of concentrating on each part seperatly.

ok, i have not got a scanner for a long time
this is all ive managed to do, its not much.
hope to be more frequent in the near future.
ok here comes the stuff..
thats all fot this time
Rebecca: thanks for the advice.
July 10th, 2005 #15
ser bra ut som sagt
när du ritar, istället för att göra en linje runt allt, försök att kanske skugga mer, t ex läpparna, så ser det verkligare ut. Prova på att göra gråskalor med en sorts hårdhet/mjukhet på pennan.
Studera anatomi t ex döskallar och rita från livet.

It's really good that you're training your anatomy skills, keep at it, you have improved a whole bunch since your first post here.
As an advice: this bobybuilder guys look kinda nice, but try to draw some anatomystudies of 'normal' shaped people. Just avoid that all the people you draw will have this bodybuilder look. Keep at it man!

nice man,
id like to add on to hurris comments to say try to understand more of the muscles if you can as in the way they work...it might help when you draw musclular people's photos, as you will know more about what youre drawing.
i would also suggest especially wen drawing hands to draw them as cylinders and blocks, breaking it down into simple 3D shapes helps so much and it will give them a more 3D feel.

ok thanks man, ill try to that with the hands
September 6th, 2005 #23
I like the last portraits, really dramatic. They show a good consideration of value like hurricane advised. And I especially like your portraits in movement, like the drinking one.
Cool to here your moving to the UK, i'm sure you'll like it here. I'm sure there will be plenty of transport (in answer to your question in the UK thread) and i'll keep you informed with Artsy stuff going on.
September 6th, 2005 #24
hey man, stick with it! Maybe spend just as much time drawing from artists' anatomy books as you are fitness magazines (or maybe you are already). Also, you'll save a little money if you just cram everything you possibly can onto sketchbook pages....actually its not even about money, its just about learning to utilize the space given to you to the fullest. See how much stuff you can fit on there until you just have NO more space at all!
peace out homie!

poratrait work is good -- love the progression so far, i agree with rebecca try to think of it as a whole figure-- keep trukin ' ((toot toot))

well well here they are. crits ans comments are most welcome
a series of heads
some other quick stuff
thants all for now., cya soon
September 14th, 2005 #28
the heads are looking good. you got some proportional issues on the 2nd page, so just keep practicing the anatomy, take your time on a couple studies really nailing down the proportions and shapes, then you can speed up your studies when u become more familiar with the subject
good luck with school

Smokeless tobacco facts
What is smokeless tobacco?
Reader Stories
Smokeless tobacco is sometimes known as chewing tobacco or spitting tobacco. It is available in two forms, snuff and chewing tobacco. Both types of smokeless tobacco are held in the mouth inside the cheek or between the cheek and gum.
Smokeless tobacco is known to contain at least 28 cancer-causing chemicals, medically known as carcinogens. The main carcinogens in smokeless tobacco are the tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs). Some of the other cancer-causing agents found in smokeless tobacco are formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, arsenic, benzopyrene, nickel, and cadmium.
Nicotine is also found in smokeless tobacco, like all tobacco products. Although nicotine is absorbed more slowly from smokeless tobacco than from cigarettes, 3 to 4 times more nicotine is absorbed from smokeless tobacco than from a cigarette, and the nicotine from smokeless tobacco remains longer in the bloodstream. Nicotine is the substance responsible for tobacco addiction.
Smokeless tobacco is not the same thing as smokeless cigarettes. Smokeless cigarettes (also termed e-cigarettes) are designed to provide nicotine in vapor to the user without burning tobacco. However, the smokeless cigarettes still provide addictive nicotine to the user and secondhand nicotine to others.

Bill Murray - An actor with a clear inner compass
From GQ Magazine: He is one of the greatest comic actors alive. A man who's navigated his career with a peerless instinct for quality and self-respect. The man behind movies—from Caddyshack to Stripes, from Rushmore to Lost in Translation—that seem to have defined a dozen different moments in our cultural life. But he is also a man beholden to no one, not the studios, not the audience, not even an agent. And as he sits down with Dan Fierman to discuss everything from the lameness of Ron Howard to the genius of Kung Fu Hustle, you can be pretty sure he's going to tell you exactly what he thinks.
When I arrived, he was standing alone in the corner of a New York hotel room, talking on a cell phone and wearing a ratty black polo, jeans, and yellow "tape measure" suspenders. I had been waiting for over an hour, which didn't seem like an unreasonable amount of time. Bill Murray famously does not give interviews—he's sat down for exactly four prolonged media encounters in the past ten years—and when he does, it's never clear what you're going to get. You just have to pray he's in a good mood.
The very thing that makes Bill Murray, well, Bill Murray is what makes sitting down with him such an unpredictable enterprise. Bill Murray crashes parties, ditches promotional appearances, clashes with his friends, his collaborators, and his enemies. If you—movie director, journalist, dentist—want to speak to him, you don't go through any gatekeeper. You leave a message on an 800 number. If Bill Murray wants to speak with you, he'll call you back. If his three and a half decades in the public sphere have taught us anything about the 59-year-old actor, it's that he simply does not give a good goddamn.
His career is known to most any fan of modern comedy: the years on SNL; the series of epochal comedies like Stripes, Groundhog Day, and Caddyshack. And his current artistic period, which could be described as Reclusive National Treasure. He lives in Rockland County, New York, emerging only to make movies for directors he's interested in: Wes Anderson, Jim Jarmusch, Sofia Coppola. This summer he'll release a period indie called Get Low, in which he plays an undertaker throwing an early funeral for Robert Duvall. Today, Murray was in an expansive mood. Then, after he spoke about Ghostbusters 3, Barack Obama, and Garfield, he decided the interview was over and was gone. As best as I can tell, he was not fucking with me. But who knows? Bill Murray doesn't need you to be in on his joke. His life is all one performance-art piece—and he does everything for an audience of one.

Happy Easter. Please take the time to remember the sacrifice and reason that we celebrate this holy holiday.

The rally culminated a literature unit on heroes while promoting awareness of cancer through the school's "Pennies for Pasta" program and Relay for Life.
"'FishStrong' is the strength behind our movement and our way of showing our support during his journey," Weaver said. "I believe that as we encourage the students to become advocates for this awareness, we are educating them and giving them lessons that will carry on into their lives and communities outside of high school."
Jeffrey Fisher is a friend and hero of Weaver's and "one I felt the students could easily relate to," she said. Weaver and the community of Swansboro had surprised Weaver with a special graduation ceremony at the
