Uttam Kumar (3 September 1926 – 24 July 1980) (born as Arun Kumar Chatterjee) was an Indian film actor, director, producer, singer and music composer who predominantly worked in Bengali Cinema.[1] He is widely regarded as one of the greatest actors in the history of Indian cinema and known by the honorific Mahanayak. Through his career he earned commercial as well as critical success, and he remains as a cultural icon.[2]
Considered as one of the most popular film stars in the history of Indian cinema, Kumar managed to have a huge fan following, that mainly concentrated in the regions of West Bengal and Bangladesh. He was a recipient of many awards over his lifetime, including National Film Award for Best Actor. A Metro Station in Kolkata was renamed in his honour.

Early life and family[edit]
Uttam Kumar was born in Kolkata at the home of his maternal uncle at Ahiritola, while his ancestral house is on Girish Mukherjee Road, Bhowanipore. After his schooling in South Suburban School (Main), he went for higher studies in Goenka College of Commerce and Business Administration, a college affiliated to the University of Calcutta. He could not complete his studies and started working at the Kolkata Port trust as a clerk. During this period, he acted in amateur theatre groups. His prodigious joint family had its own theatre group, the Suhrid Samaj, which staged many amateur shows.
Uttam Kumar was the eldest of three sons (Arun, Barun and Tarun) of Satkari Chatterjee and Chapala Debi. The youngest, whose screen name was Tarun Kumar, acted in several Bengali films and grew to become an actor of considerable repute, in screen and on stage. There are several films in which Uttam Kumar and Tarun Kumar starred together like Saptapadi, Sonar Harin, Maya Mriga, Sesh Anka, Deya Neya, Jeeban-Mrityu, Dhanyi Meye,Mon Niye, Sanyasi Raja, Kamal lata and Agniswar. Uttam Kumar married Gauri Debi [Chatterjee][nee Ganguly]. Their only son, Gautam, died of cancer at the age of 53. His grandson, Gaurav Chatterjee[3] is a Bengali television actor. Pulak Bandyopadhyay, a noted lyricist, was his uncle. Rajesh Khanna once said about Kumar: "He is the perfect ambassador of Bengal. No one carries Bengali culture in a Kurta and Dhoti as well as he does."
Debut and breakthrough[edit]
Uttam's first release was Drishtidan (The gift of sight, 1948) directed by Nitin Bose, though he worked in an earlier unreleased film called Mayador (Embrace of Affection). Then he acted in about four to five films, all of which were flops. In those films he constantly varied his name: Arun Chatterjee, Arun Kumar, Uttam Chatterjee and finally Uttam Kumar. He was dubbed as the 'Flop Master General'. When he entered the studio, people would laugh at him and comment "Here comes the new Durgadas..." "Meet the new Chabbi Biswas..". He considered leaving the world of cinema and start working at Calcutta Ports. But his wife, Gouri Chatterjee told him that it would be better if he did not to do a job his heart was not in. He later got the contact at M.P Studios for three years. M.P studios produced the film "Basu Paribar" in which he came into prominence, but his breakthrough film was Agni Pariksha in 1954 that began the success of the all-time romantic pair of Uttam Kumar - Suchitra Sen, though they had first paired in Sharey Chuattor (1953).The film ran for 15 weeks and established Uttam in the industry.
Commercial cinema in the form of films like Uttam Kumar starrer Basu Paribar (1952) and the iconic Uttam–Suchitra pairing in Sharey Chuattor (1953), did tremendous business. Explaining the emergence of parallel cinema at time when commercial cinema was doing extremely well with hero s like Uttam Kumar taking on a cult status, Soumitra Chatterjee, who starred in many of Satyajit Ray's films explained: "Uttam Kumar alone was not able to fulfill every part of the hero that Bengali audiences wished to see on the screen … there are different kinds of people in life … other kinds of young men, other kinds of romances … possibly that is why audiences found a parallel screen hero in myself."[4]
On the background of the mass migration from the then East Pakistan to Calcutta, the Uttam-Suchitra pair gave expression to the yearnings of a new, transformed city.[citation needed] They played out on screen the new desires of a young audience trying to come to terms with industrial modernity and a new form of urban existence.[citation needed] The stylised, black-and-white romanticism of landmark Uttam-Suchitra films of the 1950s like "Agni Pariksha", "Shapmochan",Sagarika (1956), Shilpi (1956), or Harano Sur, Indrani, Sabar Uparey, Surjyo Toron reflected a novel, youthful urban desire to break free from the confines of the feudal joint family and set up a nucleated, private space for the couple in love. In contrast to the earlier phase of Bengali cinema mostly dominated by the dramatised style of the New Theaters' films (in the 1940s), the Uttam-Suchitra films were marked by a more naturalistic acting style, a bit dramatic-stylized, soft-focus black-and-white cinematography with chiaroscuro effects, and a more popular and modern form of music that broke away more decisively from earlier dependence on classical types. These features were put in place by a new generation of cinematographers like Dinen Gupta and Ajoy Kar, a fresh batch of directors (Kar himself,Sudhir Mukherjee, Naresh Mitra, Sushil Majumdar, the combines of Jatrik and Agradoot) and musicians like Nachiketa Ghosh, Rabin Chattopadhyay, Anupam Ghatak, Hemanta Mukherjee Anil Bagchi, Sudhin Dasgupta and Salil Chowdhury, along with lyricists like Gauriprasanna Majumdar, Pranab Roy, Pulak Bandopadhyay. A number of them hailed from the left wing Indian People's Theater Association (IPTA) movement, popularly known as Gananatya Sangha.
Uttam Kumar was especially adored for his effortless naturalism in front of the camera and a distinctively urbane charisma that broke free from the prototypical Bengali screen hero of the past.[citation needed] He went on to form successful screen pairs with many leading ladies like Suchitra Sen, Supriya Choudhury, Sabitri Chatterjee, Madhabi Mukherjee, Sharmila Tagore, Anjana Bhaumick, Aparna Sen and Sumitra Mukherjee, apart from Sandhyarani in the 50s, Arundhati Debi and Mala Sinha in the 60s and Kaberi Bose and Tanuja in the 60s and 70s. He acted in Nayak by Satyajit Ray in which the master-director scripts the rise of a young actor with an ordinary background to a star sought after by one and all. In fact, this film may be considered as a tribute to Uttam Kumar.[citation needed] Often hailed as the one-man industry, Uttam Kumar dominated Bengali cinema for three decades until his death. This near-total reign was somewhat slightly disturbed during the politically turbulent era of the late sixties up to the Emergency, when Uttam Kumar's regular, politically passive or relatively conservative romantic film persona sometimes found it difficult to fit into the narratives of unrest that came to the fore.
Never quite satisfied with his undisputed matinée idol status, Uttam Kumar started experimenting with character roles early in his career, as evidenced by films like Khokababur Pratyabartan, (1960), Mayamriga, (1960) or Thana Theke Aschi (1965) and Bicharak. In Marutirtha Hinglaj (1959), he played a mentally disturbed character. In Kuhak he was a murderous thief, while in Sesh Anka, he was a suave businessman who had murdered his wife and was romantically engaged to the daughter of a social elite and rich nobleman. In Aparichita (1969) he also played the role of a villain. Such departures were unusual in relation to set formats of stardom in Indian popular cinematic cultures, where deviating from established 'star images' were often considered to be risky. However, this brought Uttam Kumar early recognition as a genuine actor of substance apart from a box office superstar and stood him in good stead later, especially in his collaborations with Satyajit Ray in Nayak (1966) and Chiriyakhana. A perfectionist, Uttam Kumar performed on stage for a full year, opposite Sabitri Chatterjee in Star Theatre in the play "Shyamali" [On screen, he played opposite Kaberi Bose]to hone up his skill as an actor.
Stardom and legacy[edit]
Apart from Bengali, Uttam Kumar also acted in some Hindi films such as Chhoti Si Mulaqat (along with Vyjayanthimala), Amanush, Anand Ashram, Dooriyaan (with Sharmila Tagore), Bandie with Sulakshana Pandit and Kitaab with Vidya Sinha. But his towering contribution was to Bengali cinema and the Bengali film industry on the whole.
Perhaps his most lauded appearances was in Satyajit Ray's Nayak (The Hero). It is now widely accepted that Ray wrote the script with Uttam in mind. Many people feel the film bears resemblance to Uttam Kumar's own life – the sense of anxiety and restlessness mirrored Uttam's insecurities about his phenomenal success and abiding fear that his superstardom might not last. Uttam made the role of Arindam (Mukherjee) his own and Ray later confessed that if Uttam had refused the film, he would have abandoned it. He worked with Ray the following year in Chiriyakhana (1967).[5]
Uttam also worked with another great film director Tapan Sinha in his film Jhinder Bondi (with another great actor Soumitra chatterjee),
When the Indian government instituted the National Film Awards for National Film Award for Best Actor and National Film Award for Best Actress in 1967, Uttam Kumar was the first-ever recipient of the Best Actor Award for his performances in Antony Firingee and Chiriyakhana in 1967.
He explored new avenues of film-making by trying his hand at production, singing, composing music, screenplay writing and directing. The success of his Bengali films as producer — Harano Sur, Saptapadi, Bhrantibilash, Jotugriha (1964), Grihadah — won great acclaim.On producing Chhoti Si Mulaqat in 1967, which was a Hindi film starring Uttam and Vyjayanthimala, Uttam almost used up all his savings, since the film had to be shot in colour and was shot in extravagant locations.Both Uttam and Vaijantimala has huge hopes associated with the film, but the film flopped and Uttam had to face huge losses and had to work continuously for 2 years to cover up the losses.Uttam also had his first heart attack in that period and his career as a producer was at an end.[6] Later, Uttam directed much-lauded films such as Sudhu Ekti Bochhor and Bon Palashir Padaboli. He composed music for the film Kaal Tumi Aleya in which Hemanta Mukherjee and Asha Bhonsle sang to his tune.
He came out with an authorised biography Amaar Ami in 1979-80. He had a phenomenal fan base which continues even to this day. In 1960, he started writing an autobiography named Harano Dinguli Mor{My Bygone Days}, but could not complete it.Parts of that book was published by the magazine Nabokallol.On the day Uttam died,the original manuscript was stolen.Later a member from Times of India had found the manuscript and the national library hepled to find old editions of Nabakallol and then the incomplete book was finally published in the 37th Calcatta Book Fair. As a singer, he recorded songs for the AIR - All India Radio - and very recently, an album of Tagore songs (Rabindrasangeet) sung by him, has been brought out.[7]
There was a time, when at the heights of his popularity Uttam Kumar was approached to recite the Chandi Path in the AIR studios. Traditionally this had always been done by Birendra Krishna Bhadra. but there was a huge uproar amongst the audience about why Uttam Kumar had been chosen instead of Birendra Krishna. Uttam personally met Mr Bhadra and apologized and from the next year Mahalaya on AIR was again done by Birendra krishna Bhadra.[8]
Reruns of his films on television decades after his death are still eagerly watched. Uttam Kumar's time is considered by most as the golden era of Bengali cinema.
Late journalist Rintu Mukherjee, in his Khanojonma Uttam, explained the incredible bankability of this star. From 1947 to 1980, both in Bengali and Hindi, Uttam Kumar acted in 202 films. Among them 39 were blockbusters, 57 were superhits, 57 made profits above the average and the rest flopped.

The on-screen chemistry between Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen has always been much adored and admired. Some of Uttam's famous films co-starring Suchitra Sen include "Share Chuattor", "Agni Pariksha", "Shilpi", Saptapadi (Seven Steps),[11][12] Pathe Holo Deri (Delay on the road), Harano Sur (Lost Music), Chaowa Paowa (Wish and Achievement), Bipasha, Jiban Trishna (Thirst for Life), Sagarika, Trijama, Indrani, Sabar Upare, Surjyo Toron, Rajlakshmi O Sreekanto, "Ekti Raat", "Grihadaha", Kamallata, Har Mana Har, Alo Amar Alo.[13][14]
Shonar Harin (1959) saw Supriya Devi (who would win great accolades for her performance in Ritwik Ghatak's Meghe Dhaka Tara the following year) play the lead opposite Uttam Kumar. As they began to act in more films together, the two got involved off-screen as well. In 1963, Uttam left his family home at Girish Mukherjee Road, Bhowanipur and stayed with Supriya for the next 17 years till his death. They starred together in several other films like Uttarayan, Chiradiner, Agni Sanskar", "Suno Baranari", "Kal Tumi Aleya", "Lal Pathor", "Andha Ateet", "Sudhu Ekti Bochhor", "Mon Niye", "Bilambita Loy", "Bhola Maira", "Sanyasi Raja, "Bon Palashir Padabali", Sister (1977), "Jibon Mrityue","Bagh Bandir Khela" etc.[15]
Appreeciated by many to be most talented of Bengali heroines, Sabitri Chatterjee was ardently admired by the Mahanayak as his most powerful heroine. Together, they performed in a number of blockbusters and superhits, few of which are acclaimed as evergreen comedies. Uttam-Sabitri starrers include "Abhoyer Biye", "Hat Barelei Bandhu", "Dui Bhai", "Kuhak", "Nishi Padma" (1970), "Bhrantibilash", "Momer Alo", "Kalankita Nayak"[also starring Aparna Sen], "Dhanyee Meye" and "Mouchak". In a radio interview, the actress recorded her admiration to Uttam Kumar for taking up challenging roles like that of Raicharan in "Khokababur Pratyabartan", the judge in "Bicharak" and police officer in "Thana Theke Aaschhi" at a time when he was at the height of popularity as a matinee idol.
Uttam Kumar paired up with Sharmila Tagore several times, every time their pair was extremely successful. In 1967, Uttam starred opposite Sharmila in the film Nayak, directed by Satyajit Ray. This was one of the best films of Uttam. He also acted in a number of successful films with Sharmila after the success of Nayok. They paired up in the films Anand Ashram (1977) [made in both Hindi and Bengali], Amanush (1977) [Hindi] and Kalankini Kankabati (1981) [Bengali]. Each of the films became blockbuster hits.
Uttam Kumar's pairing with Suchitra Sen's look alike Bollywood star Mala Sinha was critically acclaimed. They together acted in a number of successful filmss including Prithibi Amarey Chai and Shaharer Itikatha.
A workaholic, he was rumoured to have said that his preferred demise would be on the floor of a studio, doing what he loved best: acting. While filming Ogo Bodhu Shundori in 1980, he suffered a heart attack. Uttam Kumar was admitted to the Belleveue Clinic. The doctors did their best for 16 hours but he died that night on 24 July 1980 at the age of 53. As his hearse wound its way across Bhowanipur and finally to the Keoratala Burning Ghat, traffic in Kolkata came to a halt as thousands flocked the streets to pay their respects and have a last glimpse of the legend.[16][17]
- "I prefer following my own ways of acting, like the ways we talk, get angry,that kind of natural spontaneous acting. More of portraying a character."
- "Sometimes I got scared. So many accolades... Would they last for long? And that is why I was not ready to get carried away in the waves of admiration. I desire for more work."
- "I never fear work. Rather I derive pleasure out of work."
- "Films, Shilpi Sansad, then there was the world of my own, my privacy: I was confused. As if my every moment has been sold..."
- "Whenever I set to work, one after the other, death news hit me. Again I eased myself by realizing that death is the only truth.".
Tributes and appreciations[edit]
There is a theatre (Uttam Mancha) named after him in Kolkata. A life-size statue has been erected near Tollygunj metro station which has recently been renamed after the iconic actor by the Central Railway Ministry.[18] Besides, Shilpi Sansad, the actor's pet project of safegurading the artistes especially the poor and the old, is active still. Celebrating the 83rd birth anniversary of Uttam Kumar, the Department of Posts in 2009, released a series of new postal stamps featuring the actor on them.The Department of Posts also released a brochure on the Uttam Kumar Stamp release with a note that says 'Uttam Kumar – The Legend of Indian Cinema'.[19]
Distinguished names paying homage to Uttam[edit]
- "It is the demise of a leading light of the Bengali film industry...There isn't - there won't be another hero like him."[20]
- "I personally felt that the acting of Uttam Kumar could be compared to the best actor of any country. His great attribute is his diligence...Many are born with talent, but the talent gets eclipsed due to the lack of diligence. Uttam Kumar has both of them. Perhaps, that is the reason why he still sparkles."
- "Uttam is my friend. In a word, he is a great,great artist. But still sometimes I feel as if he is not properly exploited."//
- "Uttam Kumar was the most gifted actor I ever worked with. His first Hindi film, Chhoti Si Mulaqat, was opposite me in 1967...Uttam Kumar was thoroughly professional, cooperative and lip-synced perfectly, especially on "Aye Chand" and "Tujhe Dekha". He lip-synched songs rendered by Hemant Kumar, Manna Dey and Mohammed Rafi as if he was singing them. I was criticised for Chhoti Si Mulaqat but Uttam Kumar never criticised me"[21]
- "Uttam was a great human being...it can easily be underscored -- actor of his class is a rare kind"
- "...slowly Uttam Kumar got popular. And a fairy tale was born. I was never bothered to know the individual self of the romantic hero of this fairy tale. I would never want to. What if the dream gets shattered! Let the beautiful spell be alive! Long live Uttam Kumar -- The evergreen romantic hero."
- "It feels good to see all praising one. Uttam is one such person...He never had any pose or pretension...God gave him everything but a friend."
- "Uttam Kumar, the numero uno hero of Bengal, the most loving."
- "Sri Uttam Kumar is not merely the actor, I regard him as the creator of character. May be as the creator of character, he has achieved such stupendous popularity."
- "He is the hero and life of many of my fictions."
- "Uttam! An extraordinary artist! The artistic self of Uttam Kumar never dies down! Oh God give him Uttam health, Uttam strength, Uttam longevity" (in Sanskrit and in Bengali, 'Uttam' means 'Excellent')
- "Uttam Kumar is my guru. From my childhood, I am a diehard Uttam fan"
- "Many think that I have always been a sharp critic of Uttam Kumar's acting. This is not true. I have rarely seen actor of his stature. I have been fan of his acting, his admirer."
- "I have seen so many dhuti, kurta-clad Bengalis both on screen and in reality. But Uttam Kumar as the Bengali babu is unique. What I believe is that there is no one who can ever represent the Bengali community like Uttamda did."
- "Usually, what we find is that the good-looking guys lack substance, or the reverse. But Uttam Kumar had the both...I have always respected that man...when I was at Pune Film Institute, we used to argue on Dilip Kumar-Uttam Kumar-Raj Kapoor."
- "My first real meet with Uttam Kumar was in Calcutta and the occasion was the release of Jis Desh Men Ganga Behti Hai. Hemen Ganguly happened to be the distributor of that film. He used to be the 'common friend' of elder brother (Raj Kapoor) and Uttam Kumar. It was my pleasure to see the two greats together. I was awestruck by the royal gaits of the both...I like Uttam Kumar like any common Bengali."
- Hindustan Standard (on Uttam Kumar's directorial debut)
- "In Uttam Kumar, we have found a director who shows his brilliance on diverse levels."
The Tollygunge metro station of Kolkata Metro was renamed as "Mahanayak Uttam Kumar" and decorated the station by movie pictures of Uttam Kumar by Indian Railways.[22]
Kolkata Film Festival 2011 has a special screening of the Mahanayak's "Nayak" and a documentary on him.

i was bored so i made a flakebuster
Posted 01 September 2012 - 08:59 AM
Posted 01 September 2012 - 03:50 PM
Does the size of the tubing make any difference?

I think I see how you are setting it up, how about posting a picture of the completed Flakebuster as you are now using it. Please!
[/quote]its mated to a modified airbrush just for this purpose
[quote name='fatkidd' timestamp='1346550657' post='767032']
I'm totally loving this thing. I think, I too, am going to make one based off of yours. Thanks again for sharing this with us.
Does the size of the tubing make any difference?
no but for the inlet i suggest you keep it small
[quote name='Dr. Cranky' timestamp='1347018694' post='770590']
Very nice, you got EYEGORE salivatin'. Great experimentation on your part. The problem I have with these large flakes is that they look out of scale and you are going to need very thick clear to make them lay down and feel smooth. I like the idea for doing some accent/graphic work though. I think this would look great on larger scale models. Would be a killer on a 1/8th hot rod, for example.
thanks, whats a good flake size for 1/24
Posted 03 April 2013 - 01:52 PM
good idea. I have been wanting to buy the mini flake buster but I cant justify spending that kind of money on one. Thank you for your idea.I am also going to steal it.
Posted 03 April 2013 - 05:45 PM
I like this, I think I will try and make one tomorrow. Even if mine is a flop it beats spending $110 on one.
Posted 04 April 2013 - 03:15 AM
Because I'm an idiot, this is a thing to shoot just the flake medium after a coat of clear? What about the drying time of the clear coat and what type, acrylic or,? What size of flake and where to get it. And finally how about a list of sizes for the completed buster tube sizes and construction of the unit???? I know A.P.I.T.A.

Ex-PBA prized import Billy Ray Bates nabbed in QC
MANILA, Philippines–An American national who was an import for a Philippine Basketball Association team found himself in hot water after allegedly throwing a rock at the windshield of a Mercedes Benz of a Quezon City resident early Monday.
Fortunately for the 56-year-old Billy Ray Bates, the other party agreed to a possible settlement if the basketball player would pay for the damage to the luxury car in three days.
"The agreement was for Bates to pay the complainant within three days, then no case will be filed," said case investigator Police Officer 2 Alvin Quisumbing.
Bates, a PBA Hall of Famer also known as the "Black Superman" and who played for Crispa and Ginebra in the 1980s, was taken into custody for investigation following the incident involving the six-door Mercedes Benz of Carlos Vicente, 48, owner of a rent-a-car business.
The incident happened at 12:20 a.m. Monday while the sedan was parked in front of an auto repair shop on First Planas Street, Barangay Kaunlaran.
Citing a resident's account, police said the allegedly drunk Bates picked up a rock and threw it at the car's windshield, smashing the glass.
Bates, in an interview with reporters, denied he was drunk and claimed he was running away from robbers.
The witness recalled he saw the American walking toward Edsa early Monday morning. Later at 6 a.m., he saw Bates, apparently asleep, at the parking area of the Farmer's Market.
The resident then went to the Cubao police station and reported the incident.
In their agreement at the Quezon City Police District's Criminal Investigation and Detection Unit, Vicente agreed not to file damage to property and malicious mischief raps against Bates once the American pays for the damages.
Quisumbing said the Mercedes Benz is still being repaired at a car shop.

Another disappointment
By Kathleen
from Nova Scotia
This autumn sweater was so soft but once again the sizing chart was off and it was huge even though I ordered down. I ordered an XL and by the sizing chart and my measurements I should have gone to a bigger size as my bust is 44". The other problem with this sweater is that the arms were tight and most ppl wearing an XL do not have really skinny arms (I would think).
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Smith's actually a fan of free agents, especially if they're his own
A.J. Smith is understood so well by our torch-carrying angry villagers that he's reached the stage in his life and career of being totally misunderstood, Frankenstein's monster without portfolio. He's so private he's somehow become an open book.
There are many misconceptions about the Chargers' tough-guy general manager, one of the greatest being Smith doesn't like free agents. Fact of the matter is, he does like free agents — especially his own.
It is absolutely true Smith is loath to spend wads of dough on "star" free agents who have left NFL teams for the green. While assistant GM here under John Butler, he saw the failures of David Boston and Marcellus Wiley. It doesn't always work. If it did, Washington would have won the last 10 Super Bowls.
After a terribly disappointing 2010 season — which he had a lot to do with, in that the 9-7 Chargers were made up of his players — Smith faced the lockout-fueled Offseason of the Unknown with so many unrestricted free agents on the team he feared his roster could be destroyed.
"This could have been a very dangerous new-player team," he says, not meaning "dangerous" in a good football sense. "But we thought very well."
They did. Smith repeatedly said he had several plans in place, regardless of the CBA outcome. And he came out of the lockout sprinting, a Patton end run, a breakout, clearly outdistancing the pack of his players' suitors. And a look at his near-finished product tells you he had a spectacular two weeks.
He did lose multipurpose back Darren Sproles and inside linebacker Kevin Burnett, both of whom he wanted back (at his price), but in a dizzying fortnight of negotiations, Smith and his second in command, capologist Ed McGuire, signed 15 free agents — 11 of their own. The last came Friday, when important receiver Malcom Floyd agreed to return when for all the world he appeared headed to Baltimore.
And that, ladies, gentlemen and angry villagers, was damn fine work.
Maybe it won't lead to great success, although I believe it will, but if his army fails to meet his objective, Smith is determined it will be on his terms, predominantly with his players and not those who defected from the enemy.
Among his own, Smith signed coveted safety Eric Weddle, tackle Jeromey Clary, receiver Vincent Jackson ($11-million franchise tag), defensive end Jacques Cesaire, receiver Kelley Washington, cornerback Dante Hughes, center Scott Mruczkowski, quarterback Billy Volek, tight end Randy McMichael, linebacker Antoine Barnes and Floyd. Brought in were linebackers Takeo Spikes and Travis LaBoy from the 49ers, receiver Laurent Robinson from the Rams and safety Bob Sanders, a street free agent released by the Colts.
"Problem is, people say I don't sign free agents, because they don't care about Chargers guys, like we did with (guard) Kris Dielman a few years ago," Smith says. "But they're happy to be San Diego Chargers and they matter very much. They're free agents. They count as free agents because they could go to other places, and for some reason decided to stay home. Maybe it's hard for some people to understand, but once you become a free agent, you're open to all teams.

Sketching a beauty queen
To kill time in our life drawing class, I join my students when they draw. It's better than lulling them to siesta with a lecture or going around looking from behind their backs to check if the eyes on the paper still show hints of anime or if lack of shading is not making the nose or the chest even unflatteringly flatter. It's incredible how a student can turn a beauty queen into a monster.
With more than 40 students in each section, doing the rounds like that is a redundant workout considering I jog every morning, bike to school, and walk up a hill to get to our college building.
So I excuse myself by ranting about the factory style system of the modern university and how it is robbing professors of their own studio time. Then I go into a boring lecture about the merits of the Renaissance atelier, where apprentices learn by working with their teachers. Or the ancient way of learning anatomy by dissecting cadavers and spending a lot of quiet moments in a room with a naked model. Talk like that jolts my drowsy captive audience.
On the first day of class, I already complained that we seem to be up against all odds: that we are supposed to have easels and not long tables, heavy curtains and spotlights, plaster casts of classic sculptures, and—most important—a nude model for each session.
That is how life drawing is taught in the ideal world. In the art school we visited in China, they even have a couch ready for the model positioned below a small skylight.
But then, we are in a Catholic university and I have to appease my students by saying that it's good enough that we are allowed to draw a nude model as long as we pay for it. But models can be demanding, so students end up posing—clothed, of course. Nude sessions are reserved for midterm or final exams (perhaps the only exams they can't wait for).
I learned from artist-friends in Malaysia and Brunei that drawing a nude is prohibited there. And so the students had to use a lot of imagination trying to draw what's underneath the dress. Or they rely on pictures from books and, perhaps, some magazines which themselves could be prohibited.
I set my own rules too, like not allowing students to copy from photos of the model on their camera phones. Gesturing like I'm making phone a call, I tell them: "It's life drawing, hello. You should draw straight from life!"
Technology has nothing to do with it. In fact, I also use videos of famous sketch artists in China to do the demo as I gladly leave the classroom for the canteen. In my behalf, the artists on screen show the tricks of portraiture with a dark pencil, speaking in Mandarin. But drawing is a universal language so who cares about subtitles?
Still, I have to sit with my students and try to prove that I can practice what I preach, drawing the same model, a classmate. With more than 40 students, there is always a supply of good models—faces not necessarily pretty (we have a lot of that too) but with interesting details.
For the artist, a beautiful face is one with features that catch the light in good contrast with shadows. This results in good expression, like how the shades around the mouth give the Mona Lisa a strange smile.
But last Friday, we had an invitation to sketch Muriel Orais, the reigning Miss Philippines Earth-Water (I didn't know beauty queens now come with such long titles) in the small gallery of Kukuk's Nest, the café near our school. Unfortunately, it was scheduled the day after our class so the students could not show up, much as they would want to sketch a beauty queen for a change. So I ended up going there myself, joining a group of artist-friends already sketching the Cebuana with Chinese and Spanish features.
What better way to draw Miss Water than in watercolor, I first thought. But I have to admit that I'm not good in this medium, so I reverted to a pencil sketch, making one for me and another for her.
So what could have been another drab rainy day was saved by Miss Water, who had to endure the heat of the spotlight, chatting with us as we tried to capture her elemental beauty on paper.
Achieving likeness and beauty in portraiture and figure drawing is a recurring pursuit in the life of the artist even as his or her work evolves into other styles. In this sense, life drawing is the artist's life sentence. And with beauty queens occasionally posing as models, it is one which the artist would gladly serve.

Mountains, Moose, and Miles: a Montanan's Alcan Highway Story
View Single Post
Ridin' in MT
Joined: Oct 2006
Location: Eastern Montana
Oddometer: 1,758
Tuesday August 17, 2010 Day 12 Cassiar Hwy??
Another morning at a campground; I roll out of my bag about 6:00 am and start to pack. By 7:30 Im on the road. I barely got to Haines Jct last night so I wanted to cover some miles before getting breakfast. Whitehorse would be my next fuel stop so I planned to see what I could find for breakfast there.
The mountains looked pretty in the morning light.
I stopped at a combination gas station and grocery store when I got to Whitehorse. I asked another guy who was filling up for gas where he would eat breakfast and didnt get much of an answer. When I was closer to the airport, I pulled over at a small hotel that had a restraint and got some breakfast.
After Whitehorse, I was driving on part of the Alcan that I had routed around by taking the Campbell hwy out of Watson lake.
This bridge by Teslin crossed an arm of Teslin lake.
Today I wanted to take the Cassiar Highway, Hwy 37, south along the coastal range in BC. However, when I left home, and several days along my trip the highway was closed at the junction to the Alcan because of a forest fire.
The turnoff is called Jct 37, and when I got there the gas station was crowded with an RV caravan. I pumped the gas into my bike, chuckling as I listened to the RV owners discuss how much this gas stop was going to cost them. In the store I learned the Cassiar Hwy was open, but you had to follow a pilot car through the section with the forest fire. There was a line forming at the roadblock just outside the gas station.
While waiting for the pilot car, I end up talking to a fireman from Michigan on an R1200GS. He has taken a month off and is touring around.
As we travel along the highway following the pilot car, I was surprised that we never saw visible flames, just some burned areas. After we got out of the piloted section, I pulled over for a quick break.
The road is mostly paved, but has some gravel. The Alcan is wider also.
As I kept going south the smoke started to dissipate and the views of the mountains improved.
This little shop sold jade and other rock curios. They have a bunch of pictures of them pulling a jade boulder out of the hills
Dease Lake was the next fuel stop. After picking up fuel, some water and snacks for the campsite tonight, I stopped at a restaurant called Mama Zs. For their special they were serving a buffet, but it was really good. While I was sitting and eating, the fireman stopped in. Turns out he had gotten a motel room next door for the evening.
Sitting at the table after eating, it was tempting to stop for the night. However I still needed to put in some miles tonight or tomorrow would be a long day. About 7:30 I get back on the bike and continue south.
The setting sun and the shadows from the clouds make for some picturesque views. This bridge crosses the Stikine River, which flows into the Pacific Ocean near Petersburg AK.
The river also flows through a small community called Telegraph Creek. Out of Dease Lake, there is a scenic gravel road that follows a creek down to this town. This road is on my list of places to visit in the future.
Since I was there, I decided to take a picture of the grating used on the bridge deck.
It was getting later, and the sunlight gave the clouds brilliant colors.
Another fire was giving off large clouds of smoke.
I finally put on 70 miles after dinner. The moon over the hills set the mood for the evening.
It was finally 9:40 when I got to Kinaskan Provincial Park and set up the tent for the night. It was a pretty campground.
Stats for Day 12: 568 miles, 10.9 gallons of fuel, 14.1 hours

GIS: OpenGeo Simplified!
Submitted by kamini on Thu, 06/14/2012 - 12:57
Maps...seem simple enough right? Well, not exactly. My previous exposure to maps was more or less restricted to the user side of things. Google Maps and Bing Maps were the only things I knew of in terms of online visualizations of spatial data.
1. A interacts with B using language 1
Maps...seem simple enough right? Well, not exactly. My previous exposure to maps was more or less restricted to the user side of things. Google Maps and Bing Maps were the only things I knew of in terms of online visualizations of spatial data.
Google Maps and Bing Maps are web mapping services that allows for a simple base map to be available to the average user of spatial services so that simple one-layer data can be seen.
But then I took a class about Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and suddenly a completely new platform for spatial visualization was opened up.
For those who don't know what GIS is, it is in its most basic terms a collection of data that has in built geographic identifiers (i.e. x,y coordinates, etc.) that can be layered to spatially analyze large amounts of data. Think of it as being able to look at say the UC Berkeley campus and being able to see types of soils, faultlines, hydrography, buildings, etc. all at once helping you visually synthesize information that otherwise seemed independent of each other.
There are different ways that GIS can be carried out. I learned with ArcGIS which is a very useful but somewhat clunky software. However, after reading up on the OpenGeo Architecture, it seems to be a very versatile and adaptable platform to carry out GIS related work. OpenGeo can be simply thought of as a open source toolset for storing, processing, and retrieving geospatial data. For those who are intimidated by seemingly complicated technologies and how they work, I'm going to try to break the OpenGeo architecture up into a very simplified form.
1. A interacts with B using language 1
2. B interacts with C using language 2
SO, the pathway for OpenGeo in simplest terms goes from A – 1 – B – 2 – C.
Now substitute the following in for each of the variables:
A = User Interface: Open Geo uses OpenLayers to understand spatial features and map layers and it uses GeoExt as its platform.
1 = HTTP: the protocol to exchange or transfer hypertext.
B = Application Server: OpenGeo uses GeoServer to make maps essentially and the GeoWebCache is used to store intermediate results.
2 = SQL: Standard Query Language is used to manage relational databases
C = Database: OpenGeo uses PostGIS to store raw data in a spatial database
With such a simple work flow, it seems easy enough for those of us that are easily intimidated by technologies to learn OpenGeo and utilize it to its potential!
Now the first question for me after seeing this was well then why did I even learn ArcGIS if OpenGeo seems so versatile!? Well, there are things that ArcGIS is better for and things that OpenGeo is better for. Here is a blog by Mike Pumphrey who answers this question quite well --- http://blog.opengeo.org/2011/12/01/why-choose-a-hybrid-approach-to-gis/.
The main point is that a hybrid approach is necessary to optimize efficiency. In terms of OpenGeo, it is arguably the most efficient and flexible option on the server side which supports more standards than any of its counterparts. So use it when dealing with the larger network of servers out there as it can connect to a number of proprietary databases.
For those like me who are like what are proprietary databases, here's a quick overview: a database can be best described as a collection of information that is organized into records that can be searched. Proprietary databases are those databases that are produced, maintained, etc. by having exclusive rights. These are usually done by large companies. A couple of recognizable ones include Oracle, IBM's DB2, and Microsoft's SQL Server.
However, when it comes to simple desktop uses and the cartographic end of things, use ArcGIS. It is a much more flexible option from the user end.

Arts and Sciences Honors Program
college of arts and sciences
The Arts and Sciences Honors Program, one of the oldest in the country, provides a select group of undergraduates with a grounding in the classics of Western thought through a rigorous curriculum. It is marked by small classes, discussion seminars and close interpersonal contact between students and instructors who also act as academic advisors.

Marie Pellissier, Advanced Independent Research Project
"When I was designing my senior thesis project, I wanted to think outside the box. A traditional Scholar of the College project in the history department is a very long paper which, no matter how well written, is limited to a very specific audience. I want to be a public historian, working in a museum or archive, and wanted to use my senior thesis project as an opportunity to explore ways of putting history on display. Knowing that the Internet is becoming more and more important to the academic world, and to the world of museums and public history, I decided to build a website and write a traditional paper.
My thesis, entitled More than A Kitchen-Aid: Women's Manuscript Cookbooks and Intellectual Culture in the Early Modern World, is a two-part exploration of manuscript cookbooks from the 17th and 18th century. In the paper, I argue that manuscript cookbooks were spaces in which women created and curated knowledge for themselves, drawing on networks of literate exchange to act as innovative and empirical thinkers. The companion website, entitled More Than A Kitchen-Aid: The Elizabeth Capell Cookbook, uses the Elizabeth Capell cookbook manuscript from the Burns Library at Boston College as a case study of many of the themes from the paper. The website includes the digitized book, a transcription, and a variety of interpretive multimedia components, including a glossary, videos, and discussion of the provenance and history of the Capell manuscript."

"Singularity". Tashrika Sharma, 2015, studies studio art and mathematics. Tashrika spent the summer of 2013 at the Harvard Graduate School of Design Career Discovery Program and will be in Austria on a Fulbright Research Fellowship in Vienna at Universität für angewandte Kunst Wien for the 2015-2016 academic year. The "Angewandte" is a European Center for STEM and art. Her thesis project is best described in her own words:
"My combined Research/ETA Fulbright grant allows me to continue my study of visual perceptions through knot theory and the study of knot theory through visual diagrams. A knot behaves like a closed string in space with some "knotted" region. Currently my thesis is about studying singularities in three-dimensional knot projections.
Imagine you are holding a quarter, and as you move the quarter around, there is a certain time when you are only looking at the boundary of the quarter. You are seeing the thickness of the quarter as a rectangle, but you are seeing none of the "roundness." You cannot use this perception of the quarter to identify that what you are looking at is indeed a quarter. When we are faced with this type of perception, we call this projection of the object onto our eyes as a singularity.
Our quarter's singularity is correlative to a singularity in a knot projection (what we see when we look at a three-dimensional knot in space)."

Brian Stamm, '13, Fulbright Year in Germany:
"My main project will hopefully be published sometime in the next year or two. We still need to do quite a bit of analysis on the data we've collected, and I'll be collaborating further with the lab even once I return to America. But for now, the title of our project could read something like: "A simultaneous EEG-fMRI study on neurofeedback training of the brain's attention networks." Our project uses EEG to measure the brain's electrical activity with high temporal resolution and functional MRI (fMRI) to provide a spatially accurate portrait of the brain. Neurofeedback is a form of operant conditioning in which a study participant can subconsciously learn to control his own brain's activity in specific isolated areas. The areas we have isolated are located in the frontal, temporal, and parietal lobes of the brain and are functionally relevant for attention. The goal is essentially to help a participant learn to become more attentive, and the applications could be relevant for disorders such as ADHD. This is one of several projects I have worked on since arriving in Germany, and the others, while smaller, will hopefully also be published in the near future."
Featured Great Book
The commedia of Dante Alighieri typically completes the first year Honors curriculum. As pilgrim in his own epic, Dante returns to an Ithaka of sorts. His Beatrice died in 1290 and his fictional self for 10 years to 1300 matched Odysseus's lengthy delay in returning home from Troy. The challenge of this text touches upon all of the key concerns of the hoped for outcomes of the Honors Program curriculum.
Arts and Culture
The Honors Program sponsors frequent outings to Boston-area arts events. Offers of free tickets are sent to students at their BC e-mail addresses. Students with ideas for such outings are invited to submit proposals to Professor Constas at firstname.lastname@example.com.

If only I could meet someone new.
I've never been on a site like this before, thought it might be a good way to meet somebody since I'm new to the area. I've recently moved from my home state of S.D. to CO. to Enlist in the ANG and find work as a Graphic Designer. I'm a very creative person and enjoy painting, drawing, photographing, and illustrating. I'm caring, honest, compassionate, considerate, trustworthy, reliable, hard working, educated, and independent. I believe that being healthy physically is key to being healthy mentally. I'm very conscious about the type of foods I consume, needless to say I'm not so rapped up in my routine that I can't have a drink on the week end. I don't really have an image of a perfect girl in mind, I'd just like to find somebody I can get to know and enjoy being around. I'm an outgoing, lighthearted, person that values honesty, integrity, and intellectualism. I find hard work to be rewarding and enjoy new experiences. I have a great sense of humor and believe that being overly serious is a drag on both mental and physical well-being. Looking for a girl to spend time with who is honest, caring, considerate, intelligent, and trustworthy. Just to let you ladies know, if you only have a couple of pics and very little information about yourself I'm going to take it you're a fraudster....so don't bother trying to get at me.

SKorea: North Korea moved missile to east coast
Friday - 4/5/2013, 4:48am EDT
Associated Press
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- After a series of escalating threats, North Korea has moved a missile with "considerable range" to its east coast, South Korea's defense minister said Thursday. But he emphasized that the missile was not capable of reaching the United States and that there are no signs that the North is preparing for a full-scale conflict.
North Korea has been railing against U.S.-South Korean military exercises that began in March and are to continue until the end of this month. The allies insist the exercises in South Korea are routine, but the North calls them rehearsals for an invasion and says it needs nuclear weapons to defend itself. The North has also expressed anger over tightened U.N. sanctions for its February nuclear test.
Analysts say the ominous warnings in recent weeks are probably efforts to provoke softer policies from South Korea, to win diplomatic talks with Washington and solidify the image of young North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Many of the threats come in the middle of the night in Asia -- daytime for the U.S. audience.
The report of the movement of the missile came hours after North Korea's military warned that it has been authorized to attack the U.S. using "smaller, lighter and diversified" nuclear weapons. The reference to smaller weapons could be a claim that North Korea has improved its nuclear technology, or a bluff.
The North is not believed to have mastered the technology needed to miniaturize nuclear bombs enough to mount them on long-range missiles. Nor has it demonstrated that those missiles, if it has them at all, are accurate. It also could be years before the country completes the laborious process of creating enough weaponized fuel to back up its nuclear threats.
South Korean Defense Minister Kim Kwan-jin said he did not know the reasons behind the North's missile movement, and that it "could be for testing or drills."
He dismissed reports in Japanese media that the missile could be a KN-08, which is believed to be a long-range missile that if operable could hit the United States.
Kim told lawmakers at a parliamentary committee meeting that the missile has "considerable range" but not enough to hit the U.S. mainland.
The range he described could refer to a mobile North Korean missile known as the Musudan, believed to have a range of 3,000 kilometers (1,800 miles). That would make Japan and South Korea potential targets -- along with U.S. bases in both countries -- but there are doubts about the missile's accuracy.
The Pentagon announced that it will hasten the deployment of a missile defense system to the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam to strengthen regional protection against a possible attack.
Experts say North Korea has not shown that it has accurate long-range missiles. Some suspect that an apparent long-range missile unveiled by the North at a parade last year was actually a mockup.
"From what we know of its existing inventory, North Korea has short- and medium-range missiles that could complicate a situation on the Korean Peninsula (and perhaps reach Japan), but we have not seen any evidence that it has long-range missiles that could strike the continental U.S., Guam or Hawaii," James Hardy, Asia Pacific editor of IHS Jane's Defence Weekly, wrote in a recent analysis.
Kim, the South Korean defense minister, said that if North Korea were preparing for a full-scale conflict, there would be signs such as the mobilization of a number of units, including supply and rear troops, but South Korean military officials have found no such preparations.
"(North Korea's recent threats) are rhetorical threats. I believe the odds of a full-scale provocation are small," he said. But he added that North Korea might mount a small-scale provocation such as its 2010 shelling of a South Korean island, an attack that killed four people.
At times, North Korea has gone beyond rhetoric.
On Tuesday, it announced it would restart a plutonium reactor it had shut down in 2007. A U.S. research institute said Wednesday that satellite imagery shows that construction needed for the restart has already begun.
For a second day Thursday, North Korean border authorities denied entry to South Koreans who manage jointly run factories in the North Korean city of Kaesong. South Koreans already at the plant were being allowed to return home.
South Korea has prepared a military contingency plan should North Korea hold South Korean workers hostage in Kaesong, Defense Minister Kim said. He wouldn't elaborate.

Military facilities get shorted as part of DoD's tough 2015 budget choices
The Pentagon's 2015 budget request includes sharp cuts in funding for construction and maintenance on military bases, which congressional appropriators immediately denounced. But Defense officials say they could do a better job of maintaining military bases if they were allowed to close they ones they no longer need.

Today in the Tyranny of the Ultra-Orthodox
Intel to hire shabbos goyim; a woman arrested at the Western Wall
Just days after Intel faced a throng of rioters who objected to the operation of a factory in Jerusalem on the Sabbath, the giant computer chip maker has offered an appeasement proposal: According to news reports, Intel says it's in the process of training non-Jewish workers to man the machinery on the day of rest and plans to replace all its Jewish workers with non-Jewish ones for the three shifts it runs on the Sabbath.
Elsewhere in the holy city, police detained a woman who wore a tallit at the Western Wall. Nofrat Frenkel was taking part in a prayer service organized by Women of the Wall, a group that gathers at the start of each Hebrew month for communal prayers at the Kotel. Last week, group members faced the ire of the Sephardic spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, who called them "stupid." Frenkel was detained for violating dress codes, according to the BBC, though we like to think those codes were put in place to stop bikini-clad ladies from sidling up to the wall's crevices where they might stick in notes asking for the means to properly clothe themselves.

This setup crashes my machine...

Sounds like a terrible problem... My PNY NVidia handles the dynamic lighting without much trouble... I believe I have it set at 5... I can see when it overloads and drops a particular effect but I never crash from graphic issues. I tried to cram a bunch of stacked dynamic lighting effects in most of my missions in order to test the limits. I have a Feklrhi Captain 3 encounter and can understand why you are having troubles... those guys use a lot of effects.
I also have used multiple race costumes for single and grouped encounters with Devidians, Feklhri, Borg, Changeling, Breen, Hirogen, Klingon, Reman, Naussican, Orion & Undine - However these were just skins over Reman Lieutenant Groups - So they did not use their original animations or FX but still functioned for me with no troubles.
It's unfortunate that you cannot see these FX and get crashes all the time and cannot see the wonderful Dynamic Lighting FX that are available... I hate to say it... but have you considered a Video Card Change?
If you are Serious about this particular game and Creating and Enjoying Spectacular Content - Perhaps that would be an easier Fix then waiting for a long standing problem to be fixed by a distant manufacturer or even less likely a re-vamp of STO FX from Cryptic.
It may be worth noting that I did melt my first NVidia Card shortly after Joining STO... I just went and bought a better one... not top of the line either & have been fine for 8 months or so... I have even considered upgrading my current one to avoid dropping any Dynamic Lighting FX as I can get some dropped frames going on easily in a combat scenario such as the end of Klingon Scout Force or Fighting in space around Defera.

"Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!"
― Humbert Wolfe
Spades take up leaves
No better than spoons,
And bags full of leaves
Are light as balloons.
I make a great noise
Of rustling all day
Like rabbit and deer
Running away.
But the mountains I raise
Elude my embrace,
Flowing over my arms
And into my face.
I may load and unload
Again and again
Till I fill the whole shed,
And what have I then?
Next to nothing for weight,
And since they grew duller
From contact with earth,
Next to nothing for color.
Next to nothing for use.
But a crop is a crop,
And who's to say where
The harvest shall stop?"
― Robert Frost
"No, we will not be giving you leaves as one of you crop shares this week. We loved this poem and wanted to share it with you."

We are working at bringing Healthy ~ Beautiful ~ Food, to you even in the winter. The above picture shows our high tunnel that is full of winter spinach and braising asian greens. Farmer Nicole and Dig are working on planting the greenhouse with delicious winter salad greens. If you look close you can see row covered beds. Those are late planting of beets and carrots to offer up this winter. We are a "work in progress"! Farming is deep in our hearts and soul.
You can find our produce this winter at the Winter Madison Farmers Market on Fridays at the Madison VFW 3-6, also retail at Foodworks in Old Saybrook and Fiddleheads Food Coop in New London.
Pardon our lapse in CSA blogs late this season, we will try better next year. In the mean time check in for farm updates via this blog throughout the winter.
With love from your farmers,
