Protecting Intellectual Property Rights: Are Small Firms Handicapped?
This paper studies the determinants of patent suits and settlements during 1978-99 by linking information from the U.S. patent office, the federal courts, and industry sources. We find that litigation risk is much higher for patents that are owned by individuals and firms with small patent portfolios. Patentees with a large portfolio of patents to trade, or other characteristics that facilitate "cooperative" resolution of disputes, are much less likely to prosecute infringement suits. However, postsuit outcomes do not depend on these characteristics. These findings show that small patentees are at a significant disadvantage in protecting their patent rights because their greater litigation risk is not offset by more rapid resolution of their suits. Our empirical estimates of the heterogeneity in litigation risk can help in developing private patent litigation insurance to mitigate the adverse affects of high enforcement costs.

The United Progressive Alliance government on Saturday underlined its commitment to legislate the Women's Reservation Bill, providing for 33 per cent reservation for women in the Lok Sabha and state assemblies, at the earliest.
Law Minister Veerappa Moily said in the Lok Sabha that the Bill would be a reality soon, and urged the House to usher in the reform. "Whatever be the reason, let the Bill be passed."
Mr. Moily assured that the government would go ahead with any amendment that the members might call for at a subsequent stage, obviously referring to the demand for a quota within the quota for various categories of underprivileged communities.
Parties such as the Rashtriya Janata Dal, Janata Dal (United), Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party stalled the Bill in the Lok Sabha, though the Rajya Sabha passed it.
"This House should not reflect the male chauvinistic attitude to the country and the world," he said.
Bill on gender equality
Mr. Moily made the statement while replying to the debate on the Personal Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2010, adopted by the House, for providing gender equality in matters of adoption and guardianship. The Bill allows the appointment of the mother as a guardian of a minor, removes the incapacity of a married woman to adopt a child merely on the basis of her marital status, and provides that the mother shall have equal right in consent, along with the father, to give in adoption of their children.
Apart from announcing that the government was working on a comprehensive law on gender equality, Mr. Moily also said that his Ministry was working on classifying pending cases relating to women and children to be transferred from the Munsif court to the Supreme Court.
The Lok Sabha later ratified the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2010, as passed by the Rajya Sabha.
Minister of State for Coal Shri Prakash Jaiswal, replying to the debate, allayed fears that the new law would pave way for foreign countries to take away coal from India, said : "They can compete in the bidding and carry on mining operations but cannot take away even one kg of coal from India."

When will the official patch be released?
We are currently busy implementing the features and bug fixes for that patch. This also contains fixes and changes we made by the feedback from you. We still need some time to finish everything and of course for the implementation of the item compare. :) We have many new nice features ready for you. Especially …

Brent Hatfield just wanted something to do this past summer. But instead of a new hobby or a family trip, the 17-year-old Campbellsville High senior chose to teach.
Having completed two KET Distance Learning Latin courses within a year, Hatfield decided to share his knowledge on the Web.
"I decided that during the summer, I wanted something to do that would be productive," Hatfield said.
It's on again. For the fourth time, a request for proposals has been issued for the development of a lodge at Green River Lake. And, like the last RFP, the plans do not include a golf course.
A request for proposals is a series of advertisements seeking bids on a project from developers.
The RFP was posted at https://emars.ky.gov/online/vss/Advantage on Nov. 12. The deadline to submit proposals is 4 p.m. on Dec. 12. Those interested should click "Public Access," "Business Opportunities" and then "Search for Solicitations."
Eleven spoons, forks and knives. Eleven plates, cups and napkins. Dinner at the home of Fred and Donna Sheridan can get complicated.
The Sheridans moved to Taylor County nearly 10 years ago. They say God called them here - and to caring for children.
"We left everything we had," Mr. Sheridan said. "We gave it all up."
Today, the Sheridan home is full of children - nine to be exact. The couple has a dozen children in all - nine are adopted, three are their birth children. Three of the 12 are now grown and have homes of their own.
It may start with a sneeze or a cough, but it gets much worse.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year from complications of the flu virus and more than 36,000 die annually. That's why health officials are urging residents to get flu shots.
Health departments in the Lake Cumberland District Health Department area, which includes Taylor County, hosted flu shot clinics in October.
A Campbellsville woman has pleaded guilty to selling drugs and could spend five years in prison for her crimes.
Betty Ann Harris, 54, of 10331 Saloma Road appeared before Taylor Circuit Court Judge Doughlas M. George on Friday, Nov. 7.
Harris pleaded guilty to first-degree selling oxycodone.
The prosecutor has recommended that Harris be sentenced to serve five years in prison and pay $690 in restitution to the Campbellsville Police Department Drug Elimination Fund.
For Bonnie Cross, paying her electric bill is about more than staying warm in the wintertime. A single mother of four, one of Cross' children has asthma and must use a breathing machine. When her electricity is shut off, and it has been, the machine is useless.
For the last few years, Cross has been getting help with her bill through Community Action's Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program.
"Our bills are really high," Cross said. "We live in an old farm house and it is drafty. Without Community Action, there is no way we would make it."
A ribbon cutting ceremony and open house tour of the Taylor County Detention Center is set for Friday, Nov. 14 at 2 p.m.
Tours of the jail will be given from 2 to 6 p.m. The ceremony and tours are open to the public.
For more information, call Taylor County Judge/Executive Eddie Rogers' office at 465-7729.
A nearly full house was on hand Monday night for a performance by the Southern Illinois University Choir under the direction of Dr. Susan Davenport.
The third performance of the Central Kentucky Arts Series' 2008-2009 season took place at First United Methodist Church.
Gov. Steve Beshear and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid are urging those eligible to sign up for prescription drug coverage through Medicare.
Medicare Part D is the prescription drug component of Medicare, the federal health insurance program for people older than 65, certain people with disabilities and people with end-stage renal disease. Part D has been a Medicare component for four years and offers several prescription drug plans to beneficiaries.
Taylor Countians who want to recycle will soon have another place to take their paper, cardboard, metal, aluminum and plastic.
At Monday night's special Fiscal Court meeting, magistrates gave their approval to begin accepting recyclables at the Waste Connections Inc. drop-off site on Dale Avenue.
Taylor County Judge/Executive Eddie Rogers told magistrates, who asked him to research the possibility of offering a county-wide recycling service last month, that Waste Connections is agreeable to placing bins at its local site.

OSHAWA -- Oshawa is looking at replacing about 800 to 900 boulevard and street trees as a result of the ice storm and the price tag is expected to be hefty.
Bill Slute, manager of parks maintenance services of the City, said the replacement cost is expected to be about $1,000 per tree which includes the cost of removing the stump and replacing it.
Many of the damaged trees were ash trees, which were already being impacted by the emerald ash borer and Mr. Slute said the City will have to compare the trees removed as part of the ice storm cleanup against the list of trees slated for removal due to the insect. In addition to ash, maple tree varieties were among the most damaged tree species. The replacement of the damaged trees won't be immediate.
"We'll start this fall as part of our normal replacement program, but on volume alone we won't get them all done, so it will take into next year."
With respect to the ice storm cleanup, crews have made good progress on city streets, completing the bulk of the forestry work and brush cleanup, however the parks are not complete yet.
Mr. Slute said residents continue to put brush out on the street as they clean up their backyards. For some, like snowbirds returning from Florida, the spring was the first opportunity to take care of the mess left by the ice storm. City staff is now focusing on parks cleanup.
"We can always go back to the street, but we've got to get our parks cleaned up because before you know it the grass has to be cut," he said.
A wet spring is making it more difficult to work in some of the parks as the ground is soggy, causing difficulties for equipment.
He said the City's trails are in pretty good shape with the majority of the branches overhanging the trails cleared.
"I think we've done pretty good as far as tree maintenance, with the pruning and the removals," said Mr. Slute of the overall effort.
Initially the City focused all its resources on emergency cleanup right after the ice storm. Within a week, the City had hired contractors to aid in the work.
Currently three crews of City staff are working on tree cleanup, manning two bucket trucks and one chipper. As well, contractors make up four bucket truck crews, four climbing crews, two chipper crews and one special crew for trails and parks. Seasonal workers have started earlier this year to help with the ice storm damage.
By late April, the City's forestry tab sat at $276,497 for 7,140 staff hours including overtime and an additional $550,000 for contractors and $25,000 on equipment rental.
The total parks and forestry cost for the ice storm cleanup is expected to be $1.45 million, the bulk of the $2.1 million cost of the storm. Money pledged by the Province to municipalities for ice storm costs has not yet been released and the dollars will not extend to tree replacement.
According to a staff report, there have been a number of lessons learned from the storm including lessons on improving communications.
Some of the damage in wooded areas and along creek beds will never be cleaned up. This includes broken limbs which will become part of the ecosystem.
Mr. Slute urges residents to have their trees checked out by experts as in some cases damage is not visible unless a worker in a bucket truck examines it and damaged trees can still come down in subsequent storms.
He's asking residents with outstanding boulevard work required to be patient.
"Call and we'll get to it," he said. "We're trying our best to get everything done as quickly as possible."

Last morning in Hanoi. Just a lazy stroll around the Old Quarter and around the lake. First stop a small cafe, enjoying all the early morning activity, sipping on an avocado smoothie.
Some locals caught our attention
Gardeners exhausted and asleep ... and it's only 10am
Wiring disaster
On the central lake, Hoan Kiem Lake, is the Confucian temple complex of Ngoc Son, with attractive entry gates, bridge and peaceful island setting in the middle of the chaos of the city.
Leaving the city you can see a 40 km mosaic mural,which was completed to commemorate the 1,000 years of the establishment of Hanoi city by the Ly dynasty.
PS Throughout the past two weeks we have been hearing elevator music, particularly Love Story, Dr Zivago, Fur Elise etc (even to the extent of being piped around Hoi An streets) and Mark came up with the culprit's name, Richard Clayderman. Was he still alive, whatever happened to him, we wondered? Walking around the lake this morning, our question was answered. He's alive and well and about to tour Vietnam - probably the only country who still remember and value his elevator-style music over and over again.

About RMIT
This new product from Wyse is very impressive and surely has a great future ahead of it, just as its ancestors certainly did.
Of particular note is its small size and good looks which does not compromise on features or functionality. Definite thumbs up to the Wyse engineering design team.
For those looking for an integrated solution (display and terminal) then the Sun Ray 170 with its 17in LCD is awarded an honorable mention. It looks great, has excellent ergonomics, and very impressive features for a thin client.

hey how long did those paintings take? pretty quality
I like your Self portrait is it in oils?
I think the tiger dude with a skin on him, his colours are too blunt as if there were no dominant warm or cool light source. I would play with that to make it even better. I really like the last one you did. Your WOTC stuff is really quality why didnt you post it in the finished section!!

Alday.J: Thanks again!
MIKECORRIERO: I was thinking a Were-Beaver with a tool belt and ripped flanel shirt.
The witch/troll one is too busy. I wanted to get rid of the horse from the desription and just focus on the action in the scene. Didn't happen. Why would her horse be in the living room anyway... and a flaming horse at that!
hurricane: thanks hurricane!
endregan:How long? 5-8 hours for one... depending on which one it was I'd guess. Yeah the portrait is in it's beginning stages in Oils. I'll get back to it tonight. You are right about the skin vs. the character. There was too much contrast. These won't be in my portfolio so I'll leave them as is, but I really appreciate the crit, thank you.
AndrewLey: Thanks so much Andrew. Narrative is my favorite part, so I am very happy that you feel it shows through.
Maybe I'll consider so more Thundercats
Zaknafain:I 'd guess 5-8 hours for one plus the sketch. Yeah that one is a little odd. Thanks!
mentler: Thanks mentler, I'll be working on it tonight.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays....
I was trying to do an approachable companion character for the kids I have been drawing lately. The drawing directly below is the closest I've gotten so far. The ones below him are the weirdness I had to draw first to get to a more cuddly character.

Brilliant sketchbook. Looking good all round the clock. The creatures in the last update are funny as, esp the one with the weird antenna type thingys off its head.
I was wondering so many artist do self portraits? The only reason I can think of it cos it's free, easy accessible reference. Is there more to it that I'm missing.

Love your creature creations. Very good stuff. I like your live variety on your drawings. I am struggling with varying my lines to get a more realistic look to the drawing. Keep it up.

Here's a work in progress. A pitstop for young adventurers at the site of a trainwreck turned shelter.
December 31st, 2005 #235
narrrative and eye movement is pretty good and you have what looks like someone spying on them from the left side of the image, but I think the kids are too evenly sized and clumped in the middle of the composition. one of the kids could be seated closer to us on the tracks in the lower left looking at something over the viewer's shoulder which might help bring you into the picture even more.
what kind of terrain is this set in? the current issue of Nat. Geo. has a bunch of good grand canyon photos, so I'm applying that red sandstone color in my head.

Long time I don't check your thread, man-apologies for that ! But it's always a pleasure, I like those last updates. The creatures are so good ! And the last pic have a great atmosphear... with a few brushstrokes, very effective, bravo. Hope you'll found some time to push it further, I'm very curious to look at it !

I'm just loving those adventurer drawings, Eric. Fantabulous. I'm more than a bit jealous of them.
January 2nd, 2006 #239
bwkeough: Thanks once again for a great crit. I appreciate it. I haven't really thought about the type of rock or color scheme as of yet. I started to work on a few things after reading your comments then decided to just take the main character in a new direction.
shyamshriram: Thanks for checking it out!
Alday.J: Happy New Year to you as well! Thanks so much.
Jason C-M: Hey Jason, good to hear from you. I am glad you like them.

I said previously that I was curious at the idea you push your pic further and... you do it ! Great improvement, here. I like the second one for the dynamism but I think the character is too important and "hide" a bit the whole scene. The first one is great, simply great cuz the composition seems more equilibrated between characters and environement... wich I like a lot ! Please, Deschamps ! More !
Cheers, man ! You rock !
P.S: Hope my reply sound like good english-sorry if not !

I think there's something missing from the Finishing instructions, i.e. "Slowly push it through the opening into place" - what does this mean? Also what is the Strathmore photo frame card for as there are no instructions given for its use?

iPod Touch Wins T3′s Gadget Of The Year Award
Apple was the big winner at Britain's T3 technology magazine's annual awards, winning four top prizes, including gadget of the year for its iPod Touch.
The iPod touch bested the Asus Eee Pc budget laptop, TomTom's GO 920 car navigation system, Sony's HDR-TG3 compact camcorder and six other devices.
Apple has nailed the mix of style and usability with its latest crop of gadgets, said T3 Editor Michael Brook.
"The iPod wasn't the first MP3 player, but it was, and is, by far the best," he said. "The iPhone clearly wasn't the first smartphone, but it was the first one that every man, his dog and his dog's ticks would sell limbs to own."
Apple took home three other awards, including best commuter gadget (iPhone); best music gadget (iPod Touch 32GB) and a prize given by the magazine's blog, Gadget Candy (MacBook Air).
"Cold Feet" actor James Nesbitt hosted the magazine's second annual awards ceremony held Thursday evening in Park Lane, central London.
Readers cast over 54,000 votes to pick the 11 prizes, including the gadget of the year award. The others were chosen by T3. Details are on their website, www.t3.com/.
The winners were:
- Gadget of the year: Apple iPod Touch
- Best music gadget: Apple iPod Touch 32GB
- Best imaging gadget: Nikon D60
- Drop dead gorgeous: Audi R8
- Best new media: BBC iPlayer
- Gaming gadget: Nintendo's Wii Fit
- Toy of the year: Guitar Hero, music video game

2013 Girls Tennis All-Area Team
Singles Player of the Year
This rookie rode a strong regular season to a Southeast Yosemite League championship and a No. 2 seed in the section tourney, where she took home the championship with a three-set victory over No. 1 Arianna Tilbury of Stockdale.
Doubles Team of the Year
Emily Horrigan and Cara Kemp, Stockdale, sophomore and senior
Kemp transferred from Palos Verdes during the summer and immediately hit it off with Horrigan. This duo was 23-0 as a team, and that included a straight-set romp through the section doubles draw that culminated with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over a San Joaquin Memorial team in the championship match.
First team
Isabella Busacca, Liberty, senior
Her fourth year as the Patriots' No. 1 player ended with a 17-7 record, a runner-up finish in Southwest Yosemite League singles and a third career berth into the section singles tournament.
Isabel Donaldson, Bakersfield, senior
Playing No. 1 for the Drillers, Donaldson went 23-9 in singles and 10-1 in doubles. She breezed through the area tournament and reached the round of 16 in the section singles tournament.
Madison Swaney, Frontier, freshman
Thrown into the fire as a freshman playing No. 1, Swaney went a respectable 14-8 and received a wild-card entry into the section singles tournament, where she was the No. 9 seed.
Arianna Tilbury, Stockdale, sophomore
The area's top player for much of the season, Tilbury finished the year 29-4, with only one loss within the section -- the singles championship against Garces' Drulias, 6-4 in the third set. Tilbury did come home with some hardware, leading the Mustangs to the seventh Division I team section title in school history.
Riley Tucker, Garces, junior
A year after winning the section doubles crown with since-graduate Crimson Hochhalter, Tucker backed it up with an SEYL doubles title alongside Bridget Boylan. Tucker also played No. 2 for the Rams, who went unbeaten in the SEYL.
Ali Vaughan, Bakersfield, junior
Second-time All-Area pick formed a formidable 1-2 punch with Donaldson, going 23-9 in singles and 14-3 in doubles for the Drillers. She received a wild-card entry into the section singles draw as the No. 10 seed.
Second team
McKenzie Berkshire, fr, Bakersfield Christian
Grace Booth, jr, Highland
Bridget Boylan, jr, Garces
Sophia Busacca, sr, Liberty
Marah Caubat, soph, Delano
Carmen Chai, sr, Stockdale
Paige Darstein, soph, Independence

Toyota retakes global auto sales crown from GM
Monday - 1/14/2013, 11:05pm EST
By TOM KRISHER
AP Auto Writer
DETROIT (AP) - Toyota has once again dethroned General Motors as the world's top-selling automaker.
The Japanese company sold 9.7 million cars and trucks worldwide in 2012, although it's still counting. GM sold 9.29 million.
Both companies saw higher sales, but Toyota's growth was far larger as it rolled out new versions of popular models like the Camry. GM executives promised sales growth this year, especially in the U.S. Both companies say publicly that they don't care about who wins, but concede that the crown is an important morale booster for employees.
GM was the top-selling carmaker for more than seven decades before losing the title to Toyota in 2008. But GM retook the sales crown in 2011 when Toyota's factories were slowed by an earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The disaster left Toyota dealers with few cars to sell. The company has since recovered.
Toyota's comeback from the earthquake, and flooding in Thailand, is only part of the story, says Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting for LMC Automotive, a Detroit-area industry forecasting firm. The company also has freshened up its stale midsize sedan, the Camry, the top-selling car in the United States.
GM's global sales rose 2.9 percent last year, it announced Monday at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Toyota sales rose 22 percent.
Schuster expects Toyota to keep the lead over GM this year as it launches a new Corolla compact later this year.
"I think that's going to be enough to keep them in their position," he says.
Toyota builds 70 percent of the cars it sells in the U.S. in North America, including the Corolla.
GM is also contending with a stronger Volkswagen. It narrowly edged out the fast-growing German company for second place in 2012. VW sold a record 9.1 million vehicles.
Volkswagen, with big sellers like the Passat midsize sedan and Jetta compact, closed in on GM with an 11 percent sales increase across the globe. The United States, where VW brand sales rose 31 percent, led the way.
Schuster expects GM to hold off Volkswagen in 2013. That's because VW has more of a presence in Europe, where sales are falling as the region struggles with high unemployment and weak economies.
GM isn't ignoring the global sales race, but it's more focused on rolling out new products and driving profitable growth, said Mary Barra, the company's global product development chief.
She expects the company to gain sales and market share in the U.S. this year because many new vehicles were rolled out late last year or are coming this year, such as new full-size pickup trucks and the Cadillac ATS small luxury sports sedan. GM plans to revamp 70 percent of its North American models by the end of next year, shifting its model lineup from the oldest in the industry to the newest.
"It all starts and ends with great products," she said. "You get the products right and the other will come with time."

My main thing this week is that i can no longer eat. Every meal i am starving and put out a big portion and then get a quarter way through and have to stop. I too have heartburn all. day. long and because of my thyroid issue i'm limited as to what i can take for it (basically liquid gaviscon, which tastes to me like someone chewed an aniseed ball and a stick of chalk and then SPIT the pulp into the bottle. YAK!).
Mama to my beautiful Ana Carolina (2/07), Isabel Cristina (6/10), and #3 on the way in August 2013!
What is the connection between thyroid issues and not taking something stronger for heartburn? I have thyroid problems (pretty severe hypo due to Hashimotos) and haven't heard anything... I have to admit I have tried several things for my heartburn as it keeps me from eating and sleeping.

NORFOLK, VA-Jesse Blacker's goal at 2:21 into overtime broke a scoreless tie, and sealed a 1-0 victory for the Norfolk Admirals over the Worcester Sharks in front of a sellout crowd of 8,701 at the Norfolk Scope Saturday night. Norfolk (21-13-1-5, 48 pts) earned the win in the 7th Annual Pink In the Rink Night. John Gibson made 20 saves to earn the shutout win.
Despite the rough affair, the penalty boxes didn't have an occupant until late in the second on a tripping offense by Worcester's Dylan DeMelo. During that ensuing Norfolk power play, Adam Comrie was handed a four-minute double minor for spearing, which gave the Admirals a two-man advantage for 56 seconds.

VIDEO: Tap Tap Revenge brings iPhone push notifications
One of the forthcoming features from the iPhone 3.0 OS has gone live early, as popular iPhone game, "Tap Tap Revenge", gets push notifications.
US blog Engadget has a hands-on video that shows how the function - in this particular application as a way to challenge friends in-game - looks live.
The iPhone 3.0 software update is due to be available in both the UK and the US from 17 June.
Apple offered developers the version of the SDK with the push notification goodies in it back in April, so there should be more devs than Tapulous supporting such features come the 17th.

In Fendi Adele S.R.L. v. Burlington Coat Factory, No. 06 Civ. 85 (LBS), 2010 WL 431509 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 8, 2010), the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, in light of the prior 1987 injunction prohibiting defendant Burlington Coat Factory ("Burlington") from selling counterfeit Fendi products in its stores, recently held that the continued sale of counterfeit handbags featuring the trademarks of plaintiff Fendi Adele S.R.L. ("Fendi") violated the prior order, was in contempt of the district court's prior order, and awarded treble damages against Burlington. This decision provides yet another reminder of how courts have dealt harshly with retail vendors who have willfully purchased and sold counterfeit goods, especially where there was a prior injunction against violation of the Fendi trademarks.

Silvia Dionisio
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2013)
|Some or all of this article's listed sources may not be reliable. (August 2013)
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (March 2013)
Silvia Dionisio (born 28 September 1951) is an Italian actress who appeared in several movies in the 1970s, including Amici miei and Ondata di piacere.
Born in Rome, Dionisio made her debut in the world of cinema when she was only 14 years old., in the movie Darling. Her career followed with parts in mediocre musical Italian movies, along with singers like Mario Tessuto, Gianni Dei, Little Tony and Mal. On the set of one of these movies she met director Ruggero Deodato, who became her husband. The two had a son, Saverio Deodato-Dionisio, who worked as an actor.
In 1975 Dionisio was protagonist of Ondata di piacere, the sole truly erotic movie of her career, directed by Deodato. In the same year, she played Ugo Tognazzi's lover in the comedy Amici miei, by Mario Monicelli. In late 1970s she played in several action or sexy movies, but in the early 1980s left the cinema.
Her last appearance was in a liqueur spot directed by Federico Fellini.

Here's Congress's Net Neutrality Bill That Would Render the FCC Helpless
For now, it's just a bill sitting there on Capitol Hill.
Congress has produced a bill that, if enacted, would take away the FCC's authority to reclassify broadband Internet as a utility in the interest of net neutrality. However, the bill itself includes protections for net neutrality with specific language that would ban the paid "Internet fast lanes" currently at the center of the debate.Read More

I think I need to go back to drawing for a while. It's definitely a weak point for me. I was inspired by the work in the Spartan training camp and Bumskee's sketchbook so I decided to start the past few days doing 50 gestures of whatever.
I don't think the bird one was that successful. I think it was partly because all the photos are of birds sitting, not much energy in the shapes, and partly because I ink like a 4th grader .

Thx Evxyza. I left you a comment too.
here's some more stuff from a light work weekend. Damn you Odin Sphere !!
Bought in Montauk, caught in the Philippines. Aww yeah, represent.
photo refs, decided to do martial artist poses today. these take me about an hour (plus googling photos) and I'm pretty tired by the end.
Tried to do the "endurance drawing to break yourself" method to designing characters. some of these are just ridiculous but some are ok--I think it's helping me stop being stiff (aka I have something stuck up my ass that I'm getting out). I recommend trying it.
My teacher once told us how she once did 100 paintings in 24 hours--she said it was a great exercise, but she wouldn't recommend it. I am considering doing it on a smaller scale.. perhaps 50 in 12 hours?
Anyway thanks for looking. C+C welcome, as always, plus any general life advice you think we could use.

lately I'm getting lazy. no good.
October 13th, 2007 #23
I realized something the other day. I give hard crits but sometimes I'm unable to follow my own advice. I guess that's what you call moving into stage 2 conscious incompetence.
some more figures. last time the goal was stroke economy, this time was attempting to understand form. He had a big head, which threw me off because I usually fight with drawing too huge heads. crits welcome especially on perspective.
5-20 min each

Trapped Chinese coal miner rescued after 17 days
More News from Associated Press
BEIJING – A Chinese coal miner has been rescued after being trapped underground for 17 days by an underground flood that killed at least 10 others.
State television and the official Xinhua News Agency said rescuers brought 39-year-old Si Li out of the Junyuan No. 2 Coal Mine in the northeastern city of Hegang on Saturday. The reports Sunday said he was hospitalized in stable condition.
Xinhua said 28 miners were in the mine when it flooded May 2. Ten died, three are still missing and the rest escaped as the water rose or were rescued shortly after the disaster.
China Central Television said Si survived in part by eating straw bags used in the mine.

I don't know what you mean here ? Collectd will push out information for all guests. It can be configured to sned it in a variety of ways, and if none of the existing data transports are suitable it has extensive plugin capabilities. mDNS is also a push protocol, so there's really no difference between what you could do with mDNS vs collectd at your receiving end. > If I'm reinventing the wheel because ovirt does this already or something > like it... please tell me. Well oVirt is a closed-loop system - it has a standardized host OS image for nodes running VMs, and a matched admin host to receive - oVirt isn't intended to provide generic services for everyone wanting to us libvirt. Its just one of many apps built ontop of libvirt. As it hapens oVirt currently uses collectd to send resource & guest utilization data to its management server. We may or may not keep doing this, or change to a diffferent resource collection daemon that uses the AMPQ message bus..

The POC Joint VPD 2.0 Shins Armour protects you from your pedals and rocks, sharp objects and possibly even your frame. Armed with a perforated VPD 2.0 shock absorbing piece, and compatible with POC's Joint VPD 2.0 Knee and Joint VPD Knee.
Top Features of the POC Joint VPD 2.0 Shins Armour
- Perforated VPD 2.0 shin protector,
- 1621-1 Certified
- Durable and strechable lycra for smooth fit
Product Data
In order to achieve pads that are super comfortable to wear without feeling restrictive POC make use of VPD and a reinforced stretch fabric that allows the pad to conform to your body shape. You get hard shell style protection with the flexibility of a soft shell pad. You can hit your favourite runs at full speed confident that your POC pads have you covered.
Visco-Elastic Polymer DoughVPD is used throughout POC's body armour range to offer extreme impact absorption allowing a lightweight and comfortable approach to cycling protection. VPD's flexible nature means that it will shape to your body, creating an unparalleled fit that is truly customised. The material hardens during impact, so the flexibility doesn't come at the cost of protection.
VPD is able to maintain a high absorption level where other protection garments may see effectiveness drop after every knock. This means that POC's body armour gives you long lasting effectiveness for consistent protection so it doesn't let you down when you need it most.
Delivering anatomical and ergonomical fit means a fantastic level of comfort that results in a huge amount of free movement that more rigid materials can't offer. VPD also offers great ventilation to keep you cool and comfortable when you're riding hard.
About Body Armour
Cycling Body armour is a wise investment for both downhill and trials riding where falls and impacts into immovable objects are always a possibility. Body armour is light, unrestrictive and inexpensive when compared to the alternatives of not wearing it. Some riders even claim that Body armour can increase your confidence levels, which may make you ride faster. Wiggle stocks a large range of body armour which can cover the knees and shin, elbows, shoulders and chest. A lot of manufacturers, such as Dainese, Sixsixone and Thor produce all-in-one armoured jackets to cover the entire upper body for extreme descents. The most common advice with body armour is to buy it 'before' you 'need' it, rather than 'after' you 'needed' it.

Kessler finished the season 26-3.
Cuddington would finish the state runner-up after losing to Elkin's Ryan Schell on Friday.
Cuddington survived break point to hold the opening serve. Kessler responded with his save on break point to tie it 1-1. Kessler broke Cuddington at 15-40 to go up 2-1. Up game point, Kessler was broken after committing three successive errors.
At 2-2, Cuddington held serve to go ahead 3-2. Kessler responded with an overhead game winner to hold serve and even the score 3-3. Cuddington held serve to go up 4-3. Two double faults from Kessler led to a break in his next service game, and he was down 5-3. Kessler's four unforced errors on Cuddington's serve finished the set at 6-3.
In the second set, Kessler was broken on opening serve. In a 14-point game, Cuddington held serve to go up 2-1. Each held successive serves with Kessler trailing 3-1. Kessler next rallied from 15-40 to earn deuce with an ace, but he was broken after two straight unforced errors.
Cuddington held serve to go up 5-1. Kessler committed only five unforced errors in the next three games to hold successive serves and earn a break. Cuddington appeared to weaken physically, and Kessler stepped up his level of play by reducing his unforced errors and hitting more winners.
Kessler's valiant rally fell short when Cuddington held serve to secure the match at 6-4.
In the first round of the state championship, Kessler beat Baskaran, a freshman and the No. 3 seed from the East. Baskaran held opening serve. In his opening serve, Kessler was down two match points before winning the game with an ace. Kessler broke Baskaran's serve to go up 2-1. Kessler went up 4-2 after a 14-point game.

Each held opening serves in the second set, before Kessler earned a break to go up 2-1. Up 3-1, Kessler failed at break point to go up 4-1. Instead, at 3-2, each held two successive scores with Kessler leading 5-4. He held serve on match point to win 6-4.
Elkin also qualified a doubles team into the finals, as Chad Vestal and David Bullin won both of their matches on Thursday.
But they lost on Friday to Sam McLaughry and Jack Jones of Bishop McGuinness in the doubles championship match.

Things I'd like to see in the Fleet Screens
Just a few quick suggestion for some things that would be immensely helpful to those of us that are heavily involved in our Fleets.
1) Please add the ability to find how many in the fleet are Sci/Tac/Engineers. This would be great to be able to see without having to count them all up from the fleet roster.
2) Please add the abiltiy to see how many in the fleet are VA/RA/Cap etc. Again, this is doable now, but having this information instantly availalbe would be great!
3) Please remove the promotions of BOffs from the events window. There's too much information in that window now. If we just saw the actual Fleet Members who increased in rank, it would be FAR more useful information!
4) The ability to create/edit a fleet Organization Chart that shows command structure and who reports to whom would be AWESOME!
5) If there was a way to find out who in the fleet has increased in rank over a given time period, that would be PHENOMINAL! Many fleets have weekly fleet meetings, and the ability to recognize and congratulate officers who have been promoted by Starfleet in the past week would be great.
6) The ability to create "Departments" within the fleet would be great. Department heads could be given control over their own sections of the fleet information windows. These departments could also be given their own offices/floors if and when fleets are able to own and control their own bases.
I tried to order those from the simplest to most complicated changes. I don't know if I got that right, obviously the Devs would know though. Hope some of this helps!
Thanks for all you do, STO is a great game!

Europe/Near East/North Africa
1492 to 1789
Spain expelled its Jewish population in 1492 ostensibly to isolate
conversos (Christian converts from Judaism) from contact with
Jews. Many of the Jewish refugees found new homes in the Ottoman
Empire, establishing roots in Constantinople; Cairo; Salonika,
where rabbinical scholarship achieved new heights; and Safed,
which was the home of a spiritual revival centered on kabbalah,
Jewish mysticism. Others fled to the Netherlands or eventually,
to the Americas, the site of new Spanish, Portuguese, and Dutch
colonies. A smaller number headed east, to Polish and Lithuanian
lands, where a policy of tolerance toward minorities prevailed.
Many of the exiles from Spain settled in Italy, which was in the
midst of a humanistic cultural "Renaissance". In this
tolerant atmosphere, Jewish and Christian intellectuals traded
ideas, and Jewish philosophy began to reflect a humanistic influence.
This dialog also led Christian philosophers to develop a more
thorough appreciation of the role played by Hebrew culture in
shaping Western civilization.
During the 16th century the Protestant Reformation transformed Europe's
religious and political institutions by challenging the authority
of the pope and questioning a number of Catholic doctrines and
practices. As religious dissent spread, new Protestant movements
arose in England, Holland, Scandinavia, and German lands. In response,
Catholic leaders launched the Counter-Reformation to reaffirm
the supremacy of the Papacy and the authority of the Church. The
resulting breakdown of political and religious alliances dragged
all of Europe into the Thirty Years War (1618-1648).
By the mid 17th century the social and religious ferment of Europe
had inspired a new philosophical movement that called for the
rational reexamination of accepted beliefs. "Enlightenment"
philosophers in the 18th century Included Voltaire, Rousseau, and
Montesquieu, and though their arguments for the equality of all
people had impact throughout Europe, nowhere was it stronger than
in France, where an autocratic regime tottered on the verge of
bankruptcy from ruinous wars and expensive colonial ventures.
As the 18th century drew to a close, the French people rose in revolt
against their rulers and against the entire social order of their
country. The French Revolution was to prove a harbinger of the
great political and social revolutions of the 19th century
