I don't know how they do itPosted on 06 / 28 / 2014
I don't know how they do it, but these cupcakes are incredible. I've had a decent amount of vegan baked goods and a lot of times they just seem a little off but the cupcakes at this bakery are amazing. I even gave one to my father (who doesn't understand my vegetarian diet) and he loved them...had no clue they were vegan.
Cons: Parking is a little limited

HBcAg (core antigen) is a hepatitis B viral protein.[1][2] It is an indicator of active viral replication; this means the person infected with Hepatitis B can likely transmit the virus on to another person (i.e. the person is infectious).
HBeAg is the extracellular form of HBcAg, hence why the presence of both are markers of viral replication, and antibodies to these antigens are markers of a decline in replication.
Multiple protein products can be produced from the same DNA sequence. When "ORF Core" and "Pre C" are translated together, the result is "HBeAg".
Whereas HBcAg is considered "particulate" and it does not circulate in the blood, it is readily detected in hepatocytes after biopsy. "HBeAg" is considered "nonparticulate" or "secretory".[3]
Both HBeAg and HBcAg are made from the same reading frame, but HBeAg is secreted from cells and accumulates in serum as an immunologically distinct soluble antigen. HBeAg is secreted and found in the serum of patients and serves as a marker of active replication in chronic hepatitis. Although the function of HBeAg is not clearly understood, one study demonstrated that it downregulated Toll-like receptor 2 expression on hepatocytes and monocytes leading to a decrease in cytokine expression. HBeAg is dispensable for replication, as mutant viruses with defects in the pre-C region are both infectious and pathogenic.[4]
Tapasin can interact with HBcAg18-27 and enhance cytotoxic T lymphocyte response against HBV.[5]

1839 Bradford Map of New York City, New York
Description: This is Thomas Bradford's important 1839 map of New York City. Bradford's plan covers Manhattan from 53rd Street to the Battery, with parts of adjacent Brooklyn, Hoboken, and Jersey City. The whole is beautifully engraved in Boynton's delicate style, with important buildings, parks, streets, rail lines, and piers noted. Predates the landfills along the East River and on the Jersey side of the Hudson - though these are in fact ghosted in. Identifies Fort Green, the Navy yard in Brooklyn, Fort Columbus on Governor's Island, Fort Gibson on Ellis Island, City Hall, Bellevue Hospital, the Public Cemetery, the Deaf and Dumb Asylum, Tompkins Square Park, Washington Square, Castle Garden, and the Battery, among others. The Harlem Railroad appears in its original configuration extending along Fourth Avenue and then the Bowery to City Hall Park. Fine color work defines city wards of which there are but 17. This map became the prototype for a number of other important later maps of New York City by Tanner, Mitchell, and others. Engraved as plant no. 18 for the 1839 issue of Bradford's Illustrated Atlas.
Date: 1839 (undated)

References: Haskel, D. C., Manhattan Maps, A Co-operative List, 825. 826. 827. Rumsey 0089.001 . Phillps (atlases) 1381.
Cartographer: Thomas Gamaliel Bradford (1802-1887) was born in Boston, Massachusetts, where he worked as an assistant editor for the America Encyclopedia. Bradford's first major cartographic work was his revision and subsequent republishing of an important French geography by Adrian Balbi, published in America as Atlas Designed to Illustrate the Abridgement of Universal Geography, Modern & Ancient. Afterwards Bradford revised and expanded this work into his own important contributions to American cartography, the 1838 "An Illustrated Atlas Geographical, Statistical and Historical of the United States and Adjacent Countries. In his long career as a map publisher Bradford worked with Ticknor of Boston, Freeman Hunt & Company of New York, De Silver of Philadelphia, Hinton, Boynton, and others. Click here for a list of rare maps from Thomas Gamaliel Bradford.
Cartographer: George Washington Boynton (fl. c. 1830 - 1850) was a Boston based cartographer and map engraver active in the first half of the 19th century. Boynton engraved and compiled maps for numerous publishers including Thomas Bradford, Nathaniel Dearborn, Daniel Adams, and S. G. Goodrich. His most significant work is most likely his engraving of various maps for Bradford's National Atlas. He also engraved for the Boston Almanac. In 1835 Boynton is listed as an employee of the Boston Bewick Company, an engraving, stereotype, and printing concern based at no. 47 Court Street, Boston. Little else is known of his life.

REGION: Vision emerging for Winchester
"Menifee is not in any way aggressively pursuing annexation of Winchester," Kuenzi said. "If they want to become part of our city, then they will have to knock on our door."
A clear voice
Winchester already has a measure of protection.
In June 2010, the county Board of Supervisors created the Winchester Municipal Advisory Council to give the community a voice. The council was assigned a 30-square-mile territory bounded by Highway 74 on the north, Briggs Road on the west, Scott Road on the south and California Avenue on the east.
And Domenigoni said there is talk of expanding the territory to include the Homeland and Green Acres communities to the north.
"I think it would be a good fit," he said.
It is within the 30 square miles for which the draft land use plan outlines a future vision.
For starters, the plan calls for leaving the downtown core intact and requiring new buildings to match the existing Western theme. The plan suggests making Winchester Road and Simpson Road narrower.
"That will slow the traffic down," Domenigoni said. "And if you really want a walkable downtown you want to narrow the streets."
He said community leaders envision a future of parades, street fairs and farmers markets.
Domenigoni said that part of the plan hinges on where the Riverside County Transportation Commission ultimately chooses to put the new Highway 79 North, which will in essence be a freeway.
"Winchester Road will not be a major thoroughfare when the freeway is built," Thornhill said.
That's because all of the potential routes for a greatly expanded Highway 79 are east of Winchester Road.
Even so, Domenigoni said he hopes the commission ultimately will choose the alignment farthest to the east.
"The one closest to the town doesn't look too appealing to the community," Domenigoni said. "It would probably ruin part of downtown."
Recreation and shopping centers
As for the area to the east of Winchester Road, in the vicinity of Hemet Ryan Airport, the plan calls for light industrial development and business parks.
To the south along Winchester Road, the plan calls for restaurants, hotels and other tourist-oriented development.
"I think it would be a perfect site for that," Domenigoni said. "We have this great body of water that we have to do something with."
According to the plan, "Winchester is ideally situated to become the gateway to Diamond Valley Lake."
Along Domenigoni Parkway, the plan proposes a regional shopping center and other retail development. Offices are contemplated along Briggs Road.
And houses are anticipated in the area immediately west of downtown, as well as west of the southern portion of Winchester Road.
Elsewhere, the plan calls for redeveloping the Double Butte Landfill into a regional park, and setting up a train station along the existing railroad tracks along the north side of the downtown area. There used to be a station at Winchester Road decades ago.
Train station
Gregg Cowdery, vice president of the Winchester Historical Society of Pleasant Valley and volunteer curator of the Patterson House Museum, said the original station opened in November 1890 on the west side of Winchester Road, which was called Washington Avenue at the time.

To combat bio-piracy, India has documented over two lakh formulations of its traditional medicines and yoga postures into the Traditional Knowledge Digital Library (TKDL), comprising 34 million pages of information translated into five languages, including English.
"TKDL is an effort to protect our traditional knowledge, mainly traditional medicine and yoga postures from misappropriation through patents granted abroad as had happened with the use of 'neem' and 'haldi'," Environment Minister Jairam Ramesh told reporters.
He said the government has already granted the European Patent Office (EPO) access to the Digital Library, to allow EPO examiners to evaluate patent applications and to better evaluate attempts to patent traditional knowledge as "new" inventions.
"Similar agreement was signed with the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) during the Summit between President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in November last year. Similar agreements are being negotiated with other countries," Mr. Ramesh added.
The Minister pointed out that at least 36 cases have been identified so far by the EPO using TKDL, of which eight have already been resolved in India's favour while the rest are being processed.
"Similarly, forty cases have already been cited by the USPTO," he added.
The government is also working to set up a people's Register of Biodiversity, so that traditional knowledge passed down through the oral tradition can also be documented and protected.

London Grammar deny being members of the Illuminati
Hannah Reid told her Twitter followers that the trio had not joined the 'secret organisation'
The band were accused of being members of the supposedly all-powerful, shadowy group after posing in front of a large pyramid with an eye on it at Lollapalooza festival in Chicago over the weekend and then posting the picture on their Facebook. Frontwoman Hannah Reid then took to Twitter, to jokingly refute the accusations. She wrote:
Just a couple of things I wanted to say. Any London grammar fans concerned that we are now members of a secret organisation known as the ...— Hannah Reid (@HannahfmreidLG) August 5, 2014
Illuminati can rest easy as I assure you we haven't. It was a funny giant plastic pyramid that is all !— Hannah Reid (@HannahfmreidLG) August 5, 2014
This follows Katy Perry saying she would like to join the Illuminati, admitting that she finds the idea of the mysterious cult exciting. Rumours that Perry is a member of the supposedly all-powerful cult began following her performance of 'Dark Horse' at the Grammys in January. News site Infowars claimed: "Illuminati priestess conducts witchcraft ceremony in front of the entire world."
Responding to the rumours, Perry told Rolling Stone: "If the Illuminati exist, I would like to be invited. I see all that shit and I'm like: 'Come on, let me in! I want to be in the club.'"
Perry admitted she had "no idea" what the Illuminati actually stand for or who they are, adding: "It sounds crazy. Weird people on the internet that have nothing to do find, like, strange triangles in your hand motions. I guess you've made it when they think you're in the Illuminati. But I believe in aliens, so if people want to believe in Illuminati, great."
The Illuminati is supposedly a powerful group of individuals who want to establish "a new world order", with members from political, entertainment and religious circles conspiring to control the world. Other celebrities who have been rumoured online as members include Jay-Z, Beyonce, Kanye West and Madonna.

Universal Berry Farm no more.
Thanks Al for brining the Town Hall meeting home to us.
I originally was unimpressed, until I realized this is just phase ONE! This is exciting and can't wait for information on future phases that will make DCA a park I can actully bring out of town friends and family to visit.
To be honest, something I found interesting in your article was the fact that Jay sounded like he understood his audience: "Jay surprised the audience by being candid enough to admit... the park lacks enough warmth and emotion to make them want to stay for more than a few hours at a time." Amazing! Maybe he does understand us afterall?
AL, thanks keeping us up-to-date. Talk about information overload. I can hardly keep up with all posts and updates.
I think that all of this is very, very great news.
Al, thank you for the update. This truly is an awesome thought when you see everything planned. Then you hear phase 1. Wow, how many other phases will there be? What will be included? Where will people park with the Timon lot being invaded? So many more questions now!
Does anyone have links to pictures of the park overview that was mentioned in the article, or was that pretty much 'you had to be there to see it?'
My big question is (I'm a train buff too) are the streetcars going to actually be on tracks, powered with overhead wires, or just drivable streetcar replicas, but not really railcars?
Thanks for the information. It all sounds very exciting.
Check out the Concept Art thread in the Disneyland board.
Master Gracey has posted A LOT of detailed artwork
HOORAY!!! THIS IS YOUR BEST UPDATE OF ALL TIME AL!!! A special message to the three anti-Disney / anti-DL Resort expansion Anaheim City Council members - UP YOURS!!!
The 200 million dollar Test Track based Cars E-Ticket will be one of the best rides to be found at any park, the world over. The addition of a flying saucer type ride is an awesome pleasant surprise.
The imagineers must be beside themselves with a $100 M investment approved for a massive Little Mermaid ride (featuring omnimovers, all of the songs, and most significant movie scenes). I had earlier stated that I felt Disney had bigger plans for this ride than the initial mach-up included on the last Little Mermaid DVD release. Glad to see this confirmed.
No more flat wall to hide stuff better good buliding.
we all know that DCA lack something, (the Walt Disney touch)
WOW :yea:this park now will have the light and cameras and action.
We all know what was coming.
Thank you Al Lutz in keep us up-to date.
the master :bow:
He was telling the news media that this expansion is not out of the ordinary and that it is equivalent to the 1959 additions to Disneyland.
Yeah, right....
.... spoken like a true Disney slimeball.
The expansions Disneyland and the Disney MGM Studios underwent early in their histories were due to the phenomenal success both places enjoyed.
Sounds like DCA is getting a similar look to the Sunset Boulevard of DMGMS. An intersting thing about the Pan Pacific Expo design; The exposition building that DMGM's entrace plaza is modeled after burned down the year that DMGM opened. I hope that wasn't a bad omen.
One thing I noticed in the article was that the statue is described as, "... of a much younger Walt arriving in Los Angeles in the late 1920's"
I think Walt arrived in 1924, so will the architecture match the pre 1924 architecture that Walt would have seen, or will TPTB re-spin history so that everything from the 20's or even the 30's will be present?
Not that Al was looking for this, but how very cool that he was COMPLETELY vindicated with his predictions. He took a beating on some of the other Disney boards and the accuracy of his story was even questioned here on Micechat. And what do you know? Wednesday came and here was the big announcement listing all of the changes Al had mentioned previously. Thank you Al for the inside scoop. And how exciting to see that Disney is now attempting to fix the debacle that has been DCA. Ten or fifteen years from now, how fun it will be to tell our friends and family about what DCA USED to look like....back at the turn of the century.

Large Proposal Policy
NRAO encourages the submission of proposals which require significant amounts of telescope time when justified by the potential scientific payoff. We define a Large Proposal as one which requires at least 200 hours of observing time on one or more of the NRAO telescopes (VLA, GBT, VLBA). We expect to allocate as much as 25% to 50% of available observing time on NRAO telescopes to Large Proposals. The final percentage will depend on proposal pressure and scientific merit, as determined by peer review. Large Proposals will be further constrained to a maximum of 50% of the available observing time in any LST range during any semester (array configuration for the VLA).
Large Proposals should be submitted in response to Calls for Proposals and using the on-line NRAO Proposal Submission Tool. Large Proposals will be allowed a maximum of ten (10) one-sided pages (US letter sized) with 11 point font (minimum) to present the scientific justification of the project, including all figures, tables and references. The cover page form is not part of this 10 page limit.
A plan for data reduction and data release is a mandatory part of the justification for any Large Proposal. The maximum proprietary period is one year, but the proposers are free to specify any shorter time interval. Science reviewers will be asked to assess the likelihood that useful scientific data products will be produced and made available within a reasonable time period. The proposal can request financial support for students through the NRAO Student Observing Support Program. A modest amount of other funding may be allocated by NRAO to assist in the delivery of data products to the wider community.
All Large Proposals will first be evaluated and ranked as part of the normal proposal review process. These ranked proposals are passed to the Time Allocation Committee (TAC), along with a technical assessment of the feasibility of each proposal. The TAC will be responsible for recommending Large Proposals to NRAO. Approved Large Proposals will be announced as part of the NRAO Science Program. To facilitate access to data products by the wider community, each approved Large Proposal must provide a web link for the NRAO Large Proposals page.

Phishers Use Loopholes, New Tech To Step Up Attacks
Phishing scans have evolved from the days where phony Nigerian princes sent emails enticing victims with big windfalls for providing their bank account numbers.
Today, cybercriminals are increasingly exploiting loopholes and becoming more sophisticated in their approach, despite efforts by authorities to clamp down on the online scams.
Phishing refers to misleading e-mails that appear to have been sent from banks or other trusted sources that aim to trick recipients into disclosing bank or credit card account numbers and passwords.
The large majority of e-mail sent today is spam, an unknown percentage of which seek to defraud recipients. Because the scale of the electronic fraud is so large, cybercriminals can profit handsomely if even a tiny percentage of their intended victims are deceived.
The federal government made significant progress in curbing phishing last November when the web hosting company McColo Corp. was taken offline. According to a Washington Post report, 75 percent of spam worldwide had been sent through McColo.
However, the spam e-mails quickly found alternate methods to reach the inboxes of their intended victims, according to Google's security subsidiary Postini.
And spammers are increasingly sending their e-mails through large numbers of computers, a practice that masks the origin of the messages.
This approach also means that a dramatic McColo-style shutdown will be even harder to replicate, according to Adam Swidler, product marketing manager for Postini.
Cybercriminals have largely abandoned scams such as the Nigerian prince hoax, which were easy to see through. Instead, they are moving towards more sophisticated "location-based spam," that leads victims to a Web site related to a local disaster or other topics of interest to the recipient.
If victims click on an offered video, the Web site would them download a virus on to their computer, according to a post on Google's security blog.
Microsoft security expert Tim Cranton said its impossible to know how much money is stolen.
"We don't have a way to estimate numbers because there are so many victims that you're not aware of," he told Reuters.
E-con artists have started turning to new technology in a practice called "smishing", which is similar to phishing except the messages are sent to recipients via SMS text message instead of email.
Another recent tactic involves scammers who send spam to potential victims that purports to come from Paypal.
When Paypal learned of the scam, they began putting a digital signature on all of their e-mails and asked providers such as Google and Yahoo to block any e-mail purporting to originate from them that did not have the signature.
"We know how many they throw away and it's approximately speaking about 10 million a month," Michael Barrett, Paypal's chief information security officer, told Reuters.
"If the consumer never sees the e-mail in the first place then it's hard for them to get victimized."
"Phishing was not just impacting consumers, in terms of general loss, it was impacting their view of the safety of the Internet and that it was indirectly damaging our brand."
Experts in cyber security say they are increasingly seeing shifts from outright fraud, where a potential victim gives their money, to the use of malicious software that collects passwords and credit card numbers for criminals.
"Those will then be sold on the underground market," David Marcus, a threat research expert at McAfee computer security firm, told Reuters.
The person that buys the card numbers and passwords will then use that information to make purchases, get cash or establish false identities.
The FBI collaborated with police in Britain, Turkey and Germany, to shut down one such online operation called Dark Market last October. The site had more than 2,500 registered members at its peak, according to a FBI press release issued at the time.
However, experts don't expect the problem to be solved anytime soon, and say more people out of work could well mean more potential victims for these scams.
Marcus called many of the scams the digital equivalent of confidence tricks. But on a large scale the scams can create profits exceeding $100,000 a month.
"These things only have to be 2 percent successful," he said.
"Those campaigns are sent out to tens of millions of people at the same time.

I found
this link
over at BOM and the link FULLY lays out the plot points in ALL 3 films to date. I've only seen each movie once so I enjoyed the summary and there were little moments I had forgotten that are important, or potentially important. There clearly are some discrepancies but nothing so severe that it couldn't be waiting for sequels to fill in the gaps or clarify the discrepancies.
It even mentions 2 things I missed in PA3 and I can now see how if handled correctly there could at least be a PA4 and PA5.
at that link. If you haven't seen the films then DON'T read the link.

=== Unsharpened's sketchbook (a little bit nudity)===
Hi everyone,
This is the first time I post here since I've been hesitated for ages because of my poor works, but I think I really need some critics to improve myself.
First of all, the list below are questions that I have been coming across constantly:
1. It is always difficult for me to creating some really "original" stuff, and it seems that I can only draw certain angles (45degree side view? maybe).
2. I love do more female character design, but I just can't get their costume right. Well, even there is a ref book in front of me, I might still struggle with the wrinkle of cloth
Anyway, a picture says thousand words, hope you enjoy them.
P.S. All of these pics I've done some changes by Photoshop, I hope this will help you guys identify where my problem is faster

Hi everyone
I tried to practice more in phtoshop, though drawing still my favorite....
I found that my digital work is quite ....flat? or too mild probably I would say.
Using mouse to paint on photoshop was really annoying me, but I think my problem might be still in the aspect of understanding of colour.
Anyway, suggestions and criticisms will be appreciated, thanks!!

If you're just starting in photoshop, I suggest not jumping right into color right away as it can get overwhelming. Try doing some grayscale studies, and then moving on with a full range of value color palette. Having a palette really does help.
The drawings look good, but it looks like you suffer from vangogh fingers [like me], maybe clean up your linework some?

Joatley: Thanks for the crit! Your works are pretty nice~ I was wondering where did you get your ideas from. Fantastic!
enthombed: Your line quality in your sketches is really a model for me to learn, Thanks!!
I've just got my hand on my Wacom tablet(A6) today, and it looks just beautiful! However, it did take me quite a while to get used to with it, and then after 2 tonal practicing, my wrist was killing me..... The other thing is, it seems that all works just starting to pile up right after I decided to push myself harder..pld:. There are some assessments that I have to finish for the course I am taking currently.
It's really a shame that I can't finish both one sketch and one digital painting a day, which is my original plan. Thus I think there is another issue that I should really take time to tackle with....time management.
Two grayscale practices(1 hr each? hopefully)

Hi there,
2 speed painting practice which I've done today. They took me about 30-40 mins each..., but I am still feeling that it is really difficult to catch the right feeling of them. It just like... I don't know how to describe that, but I hope I'll improve myself by doing this grayscale practice.
Suggestions and criticisms are always welcome!!
With reference. I just couldn't help be distracted by the colour on the photograph.....
Landscape practice without ref.
October 19th, 2007 #7
One portrait practice before going to bed.....
By the way, can anyone tell me what the favorite brush when you starting a work in grayscale? I am using oil pastel brushes currently, there is no reason why I asking that.... just curios
Crits are always welcome!!
October 28th, 2007 #8
for starting out, you're already on the right path (lots of studies from photos or from life), and after that, everything's just practice-practice hehe the brushes don't matter that much, i think.. i use the basic hard-edged round brush for almost all my preliminary sketches.
what will help you "be creative" is to expand your mental "image library". once you have understanding of the basic structure and why things are shaped the way they are, you'll be well on your way to be able to bend the basics into interesting things
keep up your practice/studies (try spend more time on them to get them "right", no point rushing them because the idea of studies is to learn) and also, check out the tutorial and tips forum for lots of good tips from some of the most awesome artists here

To deadred & RandAlThor:
The only reply I can post is .... I envy you guys' talent!!!pld: Your works are veteran.
I'm serious!! Anyway, thank you for those kind words
I've felt so guilty since the last post I did, and I know that it has been a long time past already. I have tried to fix my line quality in sketches, and kept studying as many masterpieces as I can. Well, I actually just imitated their strokes, so all I did was copy.....more or less.
Studies of Raphael
Tried to imitate the strokes
Landscape +1 ( I really should use some refs,...but I didn't)
I was curious that many brilliant guys here have mentioned about him, so I borrowed some books about him. They are awesome.. if there isn't so many text.

I think that I had better to make my works more clean and complete from now on. There is no reason for me to post craps just because this is a sketch book... , it should still be well managed after all, isn't it?
P.S. Almost forgot, crits are always welcome!

Hi guys
It has been a month passed and it seems that I am always staying in the same stage....
I am taking a life drawing class once a week, and I've also found tons of valuable resources for me such as the Workshop DVD (It's all free in the library!). In brief, I think and I do push myself everyday. However, the progress isn't so impressive for me. Probably I am going the wrong way? I hope not.
Anyway, a few up date today,
Value study
Some brushes and layer combination
Concept drawing for my study... I know it's horrible, but I can't think other way about conveying Global Warming...
Practicing after studying a tutorial
Perspective practice
Crits and comments are welcome

a mess..

November 27th, 2007 #15
I think that I really need to have a clear idea about what I am going to draw rather than just head to sketch on the paper recklessly....Maybe even doodling need some concept beforehand?
Today's updating
One portrait of my friends.
These are a bit out-of date, I was thinking that they're too messy. Yet I decided take some of them, these are the works I have done after all...
Have a nice day!!
November 28th, 2007 #16
Update about today
Speed painting practice with ref.....it still to me about an hour though
I wanted a innocent girl character in the beginning, but somehow it ended up with a....wild cat?
Hope I can post a bit more later on.
P.S. Is playing games helpful for developing concept art? I mean, how suppose you'll have time to practice once you start to play games even if that's benefited to you?

Pretty sweet pencil shadings. My only crit atm would be to watch out for those proportions around the face. Particularly the length of the nose and where the eyes meet the bridge.
And thanks btw for the comments you left in my sketchbook. You asked how I did the apple digital paint so I shall oblige. Basically you need a live reference and set up a decent lighting for it. Then start painting with a really opaque brush, picking out colours that best match what you see, and dabbing them in. Sketching an outline first would've helped but that would take time since I wanted to keep the speedie under 30 minutes.
After laying down all the colours on the apple I switched to something with a low opacity and blended everything into shape, keeping in mind about revealing form, with the help of my strokes by following the contours of the apple. Finally add in the little details with a really small sized brush till you're satisfied.
There was a particular thread on this site that explained what was a good exercise for this, which was what inspired me, but I tried looking and couldn't find it because I wanted to link it to you. When I do find it again I'll be sure to include it in my sig.
From the looks of things, though, you're on a good path to getting into digital. So keep up the good work, man.

All of them are still practicing from photograph. One useful suggestion I've learned is that observing things as much as you can, otherwise your work will be lifeless. I love this advice purely because it helps me build up my data base in my head....

Hi CA, time for posting some update.
Again, just trying to use photos for improving speed painting. Without reference, it could take me more than one hour and only come up with some miserable pieces which is too shame to show here.
Now I just wish that I can have more time for practicing, but I am still struggling with my assignments....

A random sketch and finish painting. A new finding as well, the basic brush is really a nice tool! I couldn't catch the feeling of using photoshop until I started to use it. No wonder someone says "Simple is beautiful". OK, that might just be my excitement about getting the feeling right LOL.
Sketch (Actually I like it more than the painting....after looking both at them)

Pendleton Marines root out Taliban "murder holes"
Troops take advantage of winter lull to destroy enemy defenses
SANGIN, Afghanistan A squad of Marines set out on a cold, drizzling afternoon this week for an important mission: "murder" the murder holes.
Taliban insurgents roust people from their homes in this battle-scarred corner of southwestern Afghanistan and commandeer their residences for fighting positions. They stash bombs in the fortresslike compounds where farming families live and tend their livestock; and they gouge holes through the thick mud walls to use as firing ports.
Cpl. Sean Leahy, a 23-year-old squad leader with 1st Platoon, Kilo Company, has been shot at many times from these murder holes since he deployed to Sangin this fall with Camp Pendleton's 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment. All the Marines and the Afghan soldiers they patrol with have.
The battalion had been locked in daily firefights since October, but the gunfire finally relented this winter. The Marines are taking advantage of the lull to destroy the enemy's defenses, before the trees burst into leaf and provide cover for a potential Taliban spring offensive.
On this day, they plan to blow one of the insurgents' prime firing positions away. "Getting rid of the murder holes, the fighting holes where they've been shooting at us for months, it takes that advantage away from them," Leahy says.
First, they drop by the house of the mullah — the religious leader of the area — who lives next door. At least, they think he is the mullah. The man denies it. Whoever he is, after some encouragement from the Marines, he offers this tip: "There is talk about bombs in the tree line, but I don't know…"
The Marines have found 10 homemade bombs along that two-block length of trees so far. The most recent ones were unearthed just a few days ago. "Tell us something we don't know," replies Lance Cpl. Travis Alley, 23, a Marine engineer who walks point, sweeping ahead of the patrol for explosives.
Leahy is similarly unimpressed. "Tell him: if he's not working with us and there's IEDs (improvised explosive devices) around here, then he's obviously working with them," he says, speaking through a translator. "If he runs into the Taliban again, tell them we're looking for them. Tell them to man up, so we can fight them and kill them."
The squad leader is fairly certain that the neighboring compound pocked with firing holes and surrounded by fallow fields is vacant. But he wants a "warm and fuzzy" confirmation before setting the explosives.
Would the man (who is not the mullah) accompany them to check that the home is empty before they blow a hole in the wall? "No? He doesn't want to go over there?" Leahy asks, in mock surprise.
"He knows better," says Sgt. Matthew Bland, a 24-year-old fire team leader on the squad.
The Afghan man's reticence bolsters their suspicions. The empty compound is likely booby trapped with bombs meant to shred the Marines to pulp.
Bland and some of the other Marines climb onto the roof while Leahy leads a small team to the deserted compound.

Objective: Myofibroblasts are present transiently in normal healing wounds. However, they have been found to persist in the stroma of neoplasms, fibrotic conditions and other pathological settings. In rat vein grafts, we have observed the prolonged presence of myofibroblasts. Our aim was to determine the origin of myofibroblasts in vein grafts. Methods: Epigastric vein to femoral artery grafts were microsurgically placed in male Lewis rats and harvested. Neointimal development, cellular death and proliferation, and cell phenotypes were analyzed using immunohistochemistry and light and electron microscopy. To follow cellular movement in the vessel wall, vein grafts were transfected with replication-defective adenovirus containing the gene encoding β-galactosidase (n = 50), and harvested at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 14 and 28 days. Grafts were analyzed after X-gal staining. Results: Myofibroblasts were detected in the outer adventitia at 4 days, in the media at 1 week and in the developing neointima at 2 weeks. Cells tagged using adenoviral β-galactosidase demonstrated adventitia to neointima cell migration. Conclusions: Although there may be other sources of myofibroblasts in this model, the adventitia has been shown to be an origin of myofibroblasts which subsequently migrate through the vessel wall to the neointima during graft remodeling and contribute to neointimal formation.

Eleven people from Delhi, including three each from two neighbouring families, were among 39 people killed in a boat capsize in Kerala's Idukki district, officials said today.
Of them, eight were women and another is a teenaged boy.
Three members each of two families in Paschim Vihar here, who had gone as part of a 10—member group for the holiday, were killed in the mishap yesterday.
Pradeep Jain, an official of a pharmaceutical company, his wife Sandhya and daughter Shruti died while Shruti's husband Baladutt and a nine—year—old girl Nidhi survived.
Their neighbours Vimla Jain, Sangeeta Sharma and Partha Sharma (19) also died, officials said, adding it was Nidhi who identified the bodies.
Other deceased are Arun Kaur, her daughter and Alka.
Two people are yet to be traced - a woman identified as wife of Harinder Singh of west Delhi's Janakpuri who died in the incident, and Amith, whose wife Saliha was killed.
Thirty nine bodies have so far been recovered after the boat capsized in Thekkady Lake while 40 were rescued, officials said. Six bodies are yet to be identified.

Creating Beauty
(49 votes, average: 1.35 out of 5)
Thanks for your vote!
Voting on this contest has closed. Thanks to all who voted!
by Miriam J. Walker
Perceiving beauty in all its myriad forms is both thrilling and moving. Creating beauty has even more special rewards. Imagine being the artist who brushes awesome beauty onto his canvas with his oils and watercolors—the carver who transforms a block of wood into a fish, a fowl or a furry beast—the composer who hears awesome music in his head and transfers it to paper that musicians may play it for all to enjoy—the sculptor who sees in a chunk of marble a David, a Pieta, an angel, a child, or an eagle with outstretched wings.
I was not blessed with the talent of a Rembrandt, a Rachmaninoff, or a Rodin, yet I, too, like you, can create beauty, albeit in a humbler, more practical way. I make patchwork lap quilts for the patients at the local veterans hospital. The process seems to be utterly random, yet each finished quilt is beautiful in its own small way. I begin by choosing my color scheme. It may consist of squares of certain colors, or I may run the rainbow. The size of the squares is often determined by the size of my scraps of fabric. Sometimes I make the squares from triangles or strips of fabric in varying widths which I sew together in variations of the Log Cabin pattern. It doesn't seem to matter what method I use, they all have beauty when finished.
Last Christmas my daughter gave me a stack of fabrics known as fat quarters. These are cut from 45" quilt fabrics. Therefore, they are fatter than a true quarter of a yard. These fabrics differ from my lap quilt fabric in that they have a richer sheen, and the patterns are mainly abstract. I make potholders, pillows and wall-hangings from these lovely materials. These items take much smaller squares and more of them—from twenty-five or thirty-six up to one hundred and forty-four. Again, I can choose all rich colors, or run the rainbow through all the light, medium and darker shades. I can alternate light with dark, or sew them together randomly. They never fail to come together in beauty, and they never fail to bring me pleasure at the sight.
I give these mini-treasures to my children and grandchildren in the hope that they will recognize not only the explicit beauty of them but also the beauty implicit in the fact that their mother or grandmother made them especially for them.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Exactly What I Needed
The only thing I would say is the wording on the invitation is small....get out your cheaters.
Excellent Customer Service
On top of being a good product, they have wonderful customer service. I had issues using the "chat" feature because I made a mistake on my order. Instead of them waiting for me to try contacting them again later. They were proactive and e-mailed me! They put my order on hold until I told them what I needed. They added and then they got my order out in almost the same amount of time as promised. I would use them again and I would recommend to anyone looking for something with customization options and was one of the more inexpensive sites I found.
Amazing quality and presentation
I have ordered save the dates, invites, RSVP, information cards, return labels and I definitely plan on ordering thank you cards from magnet street! The quality is amazing. The packaging is very neat and comes in a beautiful Tiffany blue box. Customer service is also on point. They called me to verify an odd purchase I had made just to make sure I hadn't made a mistake. They are worth the price and very reliable! I love Magnet Street!
Lots of compliments
Got lots of compliments so far regarding our invites. It was perfect since, we are a gay (male) couple looking for a "guys'" wedding invite. Also was perfect because we are having our reception in a suite at a professional minor league baseball game instead of having the typical DJ dancing reception. That fact that we were able to change the stadium pic to one we took and not include a face pic of ourselves was a major plus!!! Would recommend to anyone looking for a non-traditional, fun invite.
If I had time
I like my invitations a lot. I wish I had put them together sooner so that I would have had time to do a just 1 order and look at the finished product before ordering all of our set. The colors looked slightly different on my screen then they do printed. Also, I felt that our photograph on the screen looked a bit washed-out so I darkened it a little bit. When we got the paper copy it looks a little dark. Also there is a slight spacing issue with 1 of the lines that wasn't that noticeable on the screen, but jumps out at you on the printed copy. I went back and looked at the spacing on the screen and it was on there but isn't noticeable unless you look for it. So I did get what I ordered, I believe. I just think my screen doesn't show true colors. A just one order would have allowed me to fix those things before printing a whole set, but I don't have a lot of time and couldn't wait to order my set. So my advice to future brides is do it early and order a just 1.

Gerald Walker - Please, Shut the F*ck Up!
Artist: Gerald Walker
Producer: Bravestarr
Album: The Other Half of Letting Go
Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 8 votes )
Everyone's a critic—and there's pretty much nothing that the haters can't use as ammunition. On the latest leak off his forthcoming, Booth-hosted street album, the Milwaukee representer asks the doubters if they could Please, Shut the F*ck Up, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that he's heard all their gripes before. Backed by the ironically lighthearted production of Bravestarr, this satirical cut is just one of many fresh records set for inclusion on The Other Half of Letting Go, scheduled to hit our mixtape page for free streaming and download September 20.

Great extension.
The "Solution Navigator" could use a "Collapse All Projects" as provided with the PowerCommands for Visual Studio 2010.
Fantastic. One of the features I missed from Eclipse was the Auto Brace Completion feature. And the Solution Navigator..very cool and handy.
You guys are genius!
Love the new version, just a couple of requests for how to improve it. Implement the functionality of my solution explorer tools - http://visualst
Love the new Solution Navigator, the ability to turn any of the features off, and the Tab Well UI is amazing. Thanks!
Would love to use it but it breaks the WinForms designer for my projects. Scenario is in Q/A
Just great and keeps getting better! Love the Solution Navigator!
Very helpful set of tools. I espesially like the Tab enhancements for the editor windows.
Great extension. Automatic Brace Completion is my favorite. Thanks much!
Can the newly added Auto Brace Completion behave more intelligently in cases like this code :
I'm a pure C++ developer and even finding many features very helpful, the missing C++ support in some important features is really "sad".
Great toolkit, must-have for all VS2010 users! The intelligent brace completion added in the last update is something I wanted in Visual Studio for a long time, and it works amazingly well.
