Several updates ago, thatfatkid told you to finish something. Where is that piece?
March 31st, 2009 #367
I like the light valued desaturated colors in that Chrono. Since they're so close in value and saturation all the work is left to the lines and shapes. I think the hands could be a little bigger, make sure the near hand is bigger than the farther. The face could be a little more oval, too make it a little closer to the source material. He's twisted at the waist so you have to figure out a way to show that, take pictures, find examples in other artworks. I think this would be a good piece to finish. Get the foreshortenings to read clearer, make the knee point to the viewer, get that hand to face where it needs to, keep track of the main surfaces, back of the hand, the sides, the sides of the fingers.

Hey, great progress here, like the sense of 3-d in your studies. I'd say you can play a bit with edges on b/w studies, perhaps keeping values smoother.Keep on!

haven't showed my face here in a while - nice! You did your first color study of the page, with the train, in painter? using acrylics or oils? really cool, more with that type of focus is sure to help you a ton.
The last girl feels nice and solid. a bit more variety in the darks would make it even more convincing - just creating some shadows that are darker than others as naturally happens (pubic area, under arms) to pop other areas out, but of course they could have been really even in the ref!
pretty nice hands overall - most of the main shapes feel good enough that the minor off parts aren't as important. where the thumb attaches seems to lack suggestion on a few.

hey Dan
I think you could have pushed that study further. Just take all the time you need to get the proportions right before moving on to rendering (which in this case also looks like it could have had more work).
I'm probably wrong, but I think it's better to make the most of each study than to just do them all the time. Quantity has its place too, but if you don't go too deep into any studies, you won't learn what you could from going that deep.
..i think

'Going deep' is just a matter of polishing everything up and filling in the details, which to me is not very interesting.

Hey HunterKiller_ - Max has a good point. You would benefit a lot from doing some longer studies. It may not be fun but it makes you way faster and more accurate in the long run. You're not in a race, you're trying to learn, and if you don't spend a significant amount of time really understanding what you're seeing, your speed is not going to matter. The things I think you could benefit studying a bit more in depth are proportion/accuracy and form. Form (which is really a study of how light describes an object's 3-dimensional shape) is the thing one *really* needs to spend a good long time on to understand it. Rendering and detail may not be what gets you excited, but doing a few very long still lifes instead of all quickies will make your quickies so much more believable.
Really you're very far along and all the basic stuff is well learned Stopping for some longer studies is probably what will help you most at this point.

Today's consumer is highly reliant on the internet for information. This ranges from verification of stories and news items to search for various products and services.
E-commerce plays an important part in marketing. Browsing various web sites has become a big part of the modern consumer's window shopping trip before making a final decision about a purchase. Websites showcasing various products and services are accessible through the use of SEs (Search Engines). Some of the most widely used search engines are Google, Yahoo, Bing, these are household names when it comes to browsing or surfing the internet.
To get optimum results, it is vital to employ the best SEO Markham Expert practices. Know your target market and know what they need. When potential customers click on a product using the search engine, they should be directed or linked to your site.
Content plays a key part in making your site SEO friendly. Ensure that key words that describe the products or services that you are offering are visible. HTML (HyperText MarkUp Language) is used to direct or link browsers to your web site and onto their desired product, service or information.
Search engines are a great and useful tool for internet marketing, which, if applied correctly, will give you previously untapped target market.
The best SEO practices are quite straight forward. One needs to be visible, by making sure that your idea or product is one of a kind and not common, otherwise potential SE users may be directed to rival sites offering similar products.
Human beings are visual creatures and when a product is described in a video link or podcast, it will generate more interest. Someone who is maximizing the use of a SE will follow a video link or HTML.
Honesty is said to be the best policy. It would be dishonest and careless to offer a product that may no longer be available on your website. There are times when browsers click on links and find 'error' message. Not only is this frustrating, it is also a poor way of using a SE. Best SEO practices call for re-direction in case a product is no longer available. If you are a keen marketer you will have an active web developer to keep updating and engaging your potential customers. By using proper SEO practices, a web site will be able to disseminate accurate and truthful information about products and services.
Ensuring that a product or service is unique while at the same time applying the best SEO methods is essential. As a result, the professional or business person will witness a lot of internet traffic directed to their web site.

Parents of ADHD Children
out bursts hurting our family, please help
please help! our almost 10 year daughter has intense , emotionally out bursts!
We found out at five , that she had adhd and only 3% of self control so put her on meds. After four meds we found one that helps in many areas.
However when she gets so upset, about things that don't even phase her younger siblings, we don't know what to do. Her "fits" exhausted everyone in our family.
We do high protein diet, natural supplement and plenty of sleep 95%of the time.
Please does anyone else understand or can help?

NEWBERRY — The Buford boys soccer team brought an 8-8 record to Mike Ware Field on Tuesday night to face the 13-3 Bulldogs in the opening round of the playoffs.
The game turned out to be the best scoring distribution for the Newberry offense this year, with seven different Bulldogs finding the net.
The Yellow Jackets gave the 'Dogs a scare in the first minute as they slipped down field on the right for a quick shot near the corner of the box. The shot curved just outside the left post to keep the score at 0-0. It turned out to be their best scoring opportunity of the night, and Newberry was able to control the tempo from there on.
About one minute later, the Bulldogs intercepted a goal kick by heading it back down the middle where Erick Arroyo took it to the net for a 1-0 lead.
With 36:55 remaining, Jose Lozano sent a pass from midfield down the left sideline. It appeared to be going out of bounds, but Jerry Ezesarte chased it down and punched it back across to the middle where a waiting Logan Ransdale struck for a 2-0 Newberry lead.
Throughout the night, the Yellow Jackets worked the ball down the field with nice passing and lobs into the box, but the Bulldog's quickness allowed them to close the gap and minimize Buford scoring opportunities.
The Newberry defensive line — Ernesto Bautista, Umberto Alvarez and Cesar Sosa — routinely turned the Jackets back or kept pressure on the shooters such that attempts that got past them were easily handled by keeper Alberto Rogdriguez.
With 31:32 left in the half, Arroyo dished over to Ezesarte who struck hard to put the 'Dogs up 3-0. One minute later, Lozano made a header pass over to Arroyo in the middle. After a few steps, Arroyo sent it back to Lozano who drilled it past the Buford keeper for a 4-0 lead.
With 25:32 left, the Buford keeper sent a long kick down field. A Yellow Jacket midfielder mistimed his jump and his header sent the ball back toward his own goal. Arroyo was able to run it down and maneuver past the remaining defenders. He struck hard from 15 yards out, putting the Bulldogs on top 5-0.
Having scored five goals in 15 minutes, Newberry's eagerness started to work against them. For the remaining 25 minutes, numerous Bulldog attacks were nullified by offsides calls, and Newberry took the 5-0 lead into the half.
The Yellow Jackets played their best soccer of the night in the first 10 minutes of the second half. With 39:07 left in the game, Buford worked in for an opportunity at the top of the box. The Bulldog defenders closed in to make the Yellow Jacket forward rush his shot and it skied over the goal.
With 31 minutes left, Buford again came close with a hard shot from the left. Rodriguez was able to tip it up, where it hit the crossbar and fell into the box, where the 'Dog defenders cleared it before the Jackets could follow up.
For the final 30 minutes, the Bulldogs were able to keep mostly on-sides and their quickness, both off and on the ball, opened up multiple scoring opportunities. With 28 minutes remaining, Ransdale was fouled near mid-field. On the resulting free kick, Lozano passed back to Ransdale on the left who then crossed to Rudolfo Sosa on the right. Sosa nailed the shot to make it 6-0.
With 18 minutes left in the game, Joel Alvarez got the ball on the Bulldog side of the field and proceeded down the left-middle past the defenders. The Buford keeper came out of the goal to defend, but just inside the top of the box, Alvarez stuck it past him for a 7-0 lead.
Some 11 minutes later, Joel Alvarez (at this point having shifted to the defensive side of the field) again used his speed to Newberry's advantage. He worked the ball down field and crossed over to Lozano, who worked through several defenders and dished over to Ransdale on the left.
Ransdale placed the shot past the Jacket goalie for an 8-0 lead. The 'Dogs final score of the night came with two minutes remaining when Umberto Alvarez, having shifted to offense, took the ball from mid-field all the way to the box and struck gold to make the score 9-0.
The win put the seventh ranked Bulldogs against 1oth ranked Crescent for round two at Mike Ware field on Thursday. Results were not available by press time.

Scott Hall says he wants to get clean and sober. Anyone who knows his history should be rightfully skeptical. But, in these videos posted by "Diamond" Dallas Page, Hall seems sincere. He says he's excited to get into shape. He wants to rebuild his self-esteem. And he needs to find a way to fill the void left in his life post-wrestling. Hall is headed for DDP's "accountability house," where Jake "The Snake" Roberts has been working on maintaining his sobriety. We've heard these things from both men before. Hall and Roberts need help. Robert looks like he's on his way. WWE has spent more than six figures to send Hall to rehab 12 times. If DDP can get him clean, it's an admirable cause.

Dennis Bermudez vs. Ricardo Lamas being discussed for UFC 180 in Mexico
A potential fight between surging featherweight contender Dennis Bermudez and one-time No. 1 contender Ricardo Lamas is being discussed for UFC 180 in November, as the UFC makes its maiden voyage to Mexico.
UFC Tonight reported that the the match-up is being considered, provided that both fighters are ready to go by Nov. 15, when the pay-per-view event is set to take place at Arena Ciudad de México in Mexico City. Lamas broke his thumb in the first round of his fight with Hacran Dias at UFC Fight Night TK in June, but he told UFC Tonight's Ariel Helwani that he should be cleared to resume training in September. That would put him on track to be ready for UFC 180.
The Chicago-based fight Lamas, who is half Mexican, told UFC Tonight that he loves the idea of that fight, but that he has yet to be approached about it. In fact, he called out Bermudez earlier this year. And Bermudez has said in the media that he would be open for that fight, as well.

IBM Goes Watercooled with NextGen Energy-Efficient Supercomputer
IBM today introduced a new supercomputer powered by one of the world's fastest microprocessors and cooled by an innovative water system. The new Power 575 supercomputer, equipped with IBM's latest POWER6 microprocessor, uses water-chilled copper plates located above each microprocessor to remove heat from the electronics. Requiring 80 percent fewer air conditioning units, the water-cooled Power 575 can reduce typical energy consumption used to cool the data center by 40 percent. IBM scientists estimate that water can be up to 4,000-times more effective in cooling computer systems than air.
ASUSTeK Computer Sues IBM
Taiwan's ASUSTeK Computer Inc. said on Monday that it had filed a patent infringement suit against International Business Machines Corp (IBM) in a US court earlier this month.
We sued IBM for its infringing two of our patents related to storage on the Internet and server technology,said an ASUSTeK spokesman who declined to give more details. ASUSTeK's move is part of a legal battle that first started on December 7th, when IBM filed a complaint with the US International Trade Commission against ASUSTeK and its North American subsidiary ASUS Computer International. Back then IBM said the infringing products include notebook computers, servers, routers and some components. It said the patents cover important aspects of computer systems, including power supplies, computer cooling and computer clustering capabilities. IBM sought import restrictions on some ASUSTeK computer products and components.Source: Yahoo! News

I want to develop a new innovative photo and fun sharing system with PhoneGap and Tiggzi!
I'm trying to consolidate my development and testing toolsets. Tiggzi looks like it might be a good fit.
Some long term real world testing, with proprietary lockin, is just what I need.
3 months free also would be a great bonus
basically, i need to win the toolset so i can build turn my great app idea into a wealth creation engine, become independently wealthy, quit my job and live out my days in the caribbean!
I have used phone gap and MonoDevelop – it looks like Tiggzi will be much easier to work with. Using Tiggzi I will build my great app idea, sell millions of apps, quit my job, get bought by facebook for 2 billion, and live out my days in the Caribbean.
Would it be possible to make the Android app also dblnwoadaole from this website (as .apk file)? The market doesn't work in all situations, for example for many tablet computers that are not phones. That would be great! Thanks!
A friend of mine wants to make an Android app and has asked me to code it for him. Does anyone know of a program that will let me create an app without any knowledge of coding?
I would love to win so I could make an app for my school. I'd also love to make an app that lets you save small bits of information.
Looks like a great tool for app development. Now I have no excuse to NOT create the most amazing photo app ever!
It looks best. I like it. I hope I win.

Marca says Real sports chief Pedja Mijatovic recently met with Caceres' agent, Daniel Fonseca, where an agreement was struck over the youngster's intention to move to Madrid in the summer.
Caceres spent this season on-loan at Recreativo Huelva and is rated highly by coach Bernd Schuster. The stumbling block could be Villarreal's Champions League qualification, with the Yellow Submarines needing a deeper squad to handle next season's commitments.

Knowing the reputation (and price) the UltraSharp moniker commands, there would normally be little more to say than "immense IPS display", "great image" but "prosumer price tag". However, the UP3214Q's defining feature isn't its enormity, IPS panel, nor certainly the $3,500 sticker price. Rather, its most distinct feature is a glorious spread of 3840 x 2160 pixels which is, ironically, also the source of its biggest issues.

My point being it shouldn't be dismissed out of hand.
Unearthed fossils may very well have inspired some of the art, but some depictions have pretty detailed musculature, etc. for just guesswork.
Just because an animal used as a design element is repeated, doesn't mean it depicts herds .
The aboriginal painting with the apparent depiction of the digestive tract is certainly intriguing.
However, I was providing the images more as a curiousity than evidence of such an idea...but we have found things before that were thought to be exinct for millions of years, and not always small things...

All black with a turbocharged V6 and some of the quickest acceleration of its time, the Grand National, in today's standards, is along the lines of a 2013 Shelby GT500 with both cars ess

Like mayor, several missed state deadline for sexual harassment prevention course
Sexual harassment training typically advises anyone in a workplace to report incidents that they experience directly or witness, according to the Society for Human Resource Management. Courses also suggest employees cooperate with investigations and support victims.
According to Brightline Compliance, which provided the city's courses starting in 2005, employers who fail to use the training may expose themselves to punitive damages in employee lawsuits, forfeit their ability to raise an affirmative defense to employee lawsuits and violate state laws that require harassment training.
According to Brightline, its users learn to prevent and report unlawful harassment. The company says its training answers such questions as:
• Can I compliment a co-worker on how he or she looks?
• Under what circumstances might it be appropriate to hug a co-worker?
• Can I ask a co-worker out on a date?
• How can I inform a co-worker that his or her behavior is bothering me?
• Who can I speak to in my organization if I have concerns about or want to report harassing behaviors?
Because city officials are not answering questions, at least one mystery remains about the sexual harassment training. In response to a separate records request, the city on July 26 released to the Watchdog a certificate showing Filner completed his training on July 15. The latest documents show he didn't actually complete the training until eight days later.
The documents do not show that McCormack Jackson herself took the training. She has been reassigned elsewhere in the city. Also, mayoral spokeswoman Lena Lewis, who did not return calls for this story, is not shown as having completed the training.
The city has not released copies of training materials that the Watchdog asked for on July 12. For reference, the Watchdog asked the Port of San Diego for its sexual harassment training materials, also on July 12, and received them six days later.
According to the port's materials, this is sexual harassment: "Jon and Nicole, both sales executives, travel together on a weeklong business trip. In the taxi ride from the airport, Jon slides over next to Nicole and places his hand on her thigh. Nicole strongly objects and Jon backs off."
And this: "Bruce persists in asking his co-worker Jodi out to dinner even though she turns him down each and every time he requests a date. She has told him several times to stop asking."
Both examples echo allegations that have been leveled against Filner, who has said he would be found innocent by an independent review.

Scott A. Hale is a Data Scientist at the Oxford Internet Institute of the University of Oxford, UK. I develop and apply techniques from computer science to research questions in the social sciences. I am particularly interested in the area of human-computer interaction, the spread of information between speakers of different languages online, and the roles of bilingual Internet users. I am also interested in collective action and politics more generally.
I manage the Oxford Experimental Laboratory (OxLab), which runs economic and political science laboratory and field experiments to investigate the effect of different information environments on collective action and the impact of different types of government provision on citizens' information seeking behavior.
I graduated with degrees in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Spanish from Eckerd College, FL, USA. During my time at Eckerd, I published computer science research in the area of image processing while working on a larger research project called Darwin. After graduating, I worked in Okinawa, Japan, at the Okinawa Prefectural Education Center with public school teachers to develop English immersion curricula and with IT professionals to deliver continuing education training through the Internet to staff members and students on outlying islands. I came to the OII as a master's candidate in October 2009 and subsequently began my doctorate at the OII in October 2010. My doctoral research concentrated on how the design of social media platforms affects the amount of information shared across language divides.

I'm still throwing money into an R100RS I picked up for $1000. It had been stored under a tarp in the guy's backyard for 8 years without running. So far:
-rebuilt the carbs

Still to do:

At the end of the day, I'll have spent what a running bike would have cost me and I'll know it inside and out. You're about to spend a whole lot more on a bike worth a whole lot less. Go back and find one good part on that bike. Buy that one part and bring it home. Then start looking for all the parts you'll need to build a running bike to add to it and you won't have to deal with a bunch of junk. I'm thinking $10 for the handlebars and go from there.

Recent Harrisville Reviews
The perfect site for family and friends to gather
My family, extended kin, and numerous friends had the best imaginable stay here at the Manse. We spent a little over three weeks on a sabbatical leave. The lake shared her dependable sweet serenity and purity with us. The woodsy setting took us all back to natural rhythms and simplicity (thank you, H.D. Thoreau, for the guidebook). The Manse enables a mystical sort of time travel. We could easily imagine that the year was 1895; or 1921; or 1942; or 1969... or with microwave, wifi, cell-phones, computer/tv links, and propane fueled fireplaces, a very comfortable 2014. The access site at the lake's edge allowed us to store all our fishing gear in the convenient shed, and pull our Old Town canoe up under the hemlocks. Every room has its own cozy and quaint decor--very simple, colorful and comfy. The array of bathrooms and showers allowed 12 to 15 of us to all feel at ease. The Hardy family, owners for several generations, couldn't have been more cordial, helpful and kind to us. Although we were warned that black flies could be a problem before Memorial Day, it was not the case while we were there, thank God! Special joys: sharing the enormous wrap-around porch with a nesting mother Phoebe and her newly hatched tweeters; watching a red fox cavort around at the woods' edge; seeing the blueberry blossoms emerge, promising a nice mid-summer harvest; fly fishing on a pristine, clean, clear lake; sipping cold wine at sunset on the second floor screen porch, surveying the southern NH loveliness; banquets for 15 of us in the expansive family dining room with a wood fire adjacent, food just off the grill, and all the room in the world to spread out when folks wanted less company. This place is a unique gem!!
TOGETHER @Cobb Hill
Fifteen of us ranging in age from 4 mos to 72 gathered to celebrate our daughter's 50th birthday. The house was warm and inviting and we all had a wonderful time. Fortunately, there was only one TV so the children had fun playing and being together. The view from atop the hill was breathtaking. We all enjoyed hiking to the tree house. Dining room accommodated us all. We all enjoyed cooking together and just relaxing in front of the fire.
Perfect Week Away
Everything you would ever want to do is right there in the house or on the lake - walking, reading (on the deck or on the dock), canoeing, relaxing. We took daily short trips to bike area trails. The pellet stove was great for cool fall mornings. People and Labrador retriever heaven.

Ortho Clinical Diagnostics Receives FDA Clearance for Intact Parathyroid Hormone Assay
RARITAN, N.J., Nov. 1, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — Ortho Clinical Diagnostics today announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance of the VITROS® intact Parathyroid Hormone (iPTH) Assay. The VITROS® iPTH Assay measures intact parathyroid hormone levels and utilizes one protocol for both routine and intraoperative testing with results available in 18 minutes. The VITROS® iPTH Assay is designed to be run in a fully automated, random access format on the VITROS® ECi/ECiQ and 3600 Immunodiagnostic Systems, and can also be run on the VITROS® 5600 Integrated System to combine clinical chemistry, routine and infectious disease immunoassay testing on a single platform. Equivalent analytical results are generated across all three systems.
"The VITROS® iPTH Assay will allow our hospital to provide expanded surgical options for our patients," said Matthew Burtelow, M.D., Ph.D., of Boise Pathology at St. Luke's Boise Medical Center in Boise, Idaho. "During parathyroid surgery, we can now run the iPTH test on our VITROS® Systems to help us determine if the procedure to remove the suspected parathyroid tumor was successful."
Measuring intact parathyroid hormone levels aids in the differential diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism or hypercalcemia of malignancy. Hyperparathyroidism is excess production of calcium resulting from overactivity in the parathyroid glands.(1) Complications of hyperparathyroidism are primarily related to the long-term effect of calcium imbalances in a patient's bones and bloodstream, and may be associated with a number of health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney stones and osteoporosis.(2)
"The launch of the VITROS® iPTH Assay underscores the commitment Ortho Clinical Diagnostics has to expanding its menu offerings to best meet the needs of clinical laboratories and their patients," said Bob Roda, Vice President, Worldwide Marketing, Clinical Laboratories and Donor Screening. "By being able to run an iPTH test as part of routine assay testing on the VITROS® Systems, laboratorians will be able to consolidate their workload onto a single system, helping to further improve productivity and efficiency."
Ortho Clinical Diagnostics has a broad, world-class menu of assays offering all of the most important clinical chemistry tests that cover major disease states including cardiology, oncology, endocrinology, infectious disease, thyroid, metabolic conditions and anemia. The VITROS® assay menu covers up to 90 percent of the top 100 assays and 99 percent of laboratory test volume, with numerous other assays in development.(3) In addition, standardized VITROS® reagents will enable laboratories to better manage inventories and costs in addition to producing consistent test results from platform-to-platform. This is particularly beneficial for laboratories with multiple VITROS® platforms in their facilities.
About the VITROS® 3600 Immunodiagnostic System
The VITROS® 3600 Immunodiagnostic System is a high-capacity immunoassay system with Intelligent Sample Management for routine and specialty testing. The VITROS® 3600 Immunodiagnostic System offers a broad menu of immunoassays worldwide, covering disease states such as cardiology, oncology, endocrinology, infectious disease, thyroid, metabolic conditions and anemia.
About the VITROS® 5600 Integrated System
The VITROS® 5600 Integrated System is a high-capacity system that integrates clinical chemistry and immunoassay testing on one platform using innovative Sample Centered Processing. The VITROS® 5600 platform is smaller than many other systems and does not have any water or drainage requirements, making the most of limited lab space while allowing flexibility in instrument location.
About the VITROS® ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic System
The VITROS® ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic System is a high-capacity immunoassay system with Intelligent Sample Management for routine and specialty testing designed for low- to mid-volume laboratories that require continuous processing. The VITROS® ECi/ECiQ Immunodiagnostic System offers a broad menu of immunoassays worldwide, covering disease states such as cardiology, oncology, endocrinology, infectious disease, thyroid, metabolic conditions and anemia.

Whew, glad you extended it a day!
I love how your shot has you hidden from friends. Reminds me of "Fame at a Price."
