Outdoors Notebook: AGFC announces new YouTube channel for outdoors enthusiasts
AGFC announces new YouTube channel for outdoors enthusiasts
The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has announced a new channel on YouTube that will allow outdoors enthusiasts to keep better track of all that's going on in The Natural State.
The channel, which will be updated regularly, already features several videos on duck hunting, tailwater trout fishing, elk viewing in the Boxley Valley, and Mississippi River catfishing.
People who view the channel can register to receive updates whenever new content is posted. New content will also be announced on the AGFC's Facebook and Twitter pages.
The YouTube channel is titled "ArkansasGameandFish" — all one word.
Last chance for Tenn. dove hunters
The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency issued a reminder last week that the third and final segment of the state's dove hunting season is underway.
The season will remain open through Jan. 15 with a daily bag limit of 15 for native mourning doves. There is no limit for collared doves, which are considered an invasive species.
Doves not readily identifiable as collared doves will be considered mourning doves and will count toward the mourning dove daily bag limit. Identification is the responsibility of the shooter.
Spring turkey hunt Applications open
TWRA is currently accepting applications for its 2014 spring turkey quota hunts.
Applications are available and will be accepted at all TWRA license agents, TWRA regional offices and online at tnwildlife.org. The deadline to apply is 11:59 p.m. Feb. 5.
There are 17 hunting areas available around the state. Hunters can choose up to 12 areas during the application process, but will only be chosen for one.
Each hunter can apply only once.
AGFC stocks more than 800,000 fish
As part of its regular stocking program, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission stocked more than 880,000 fish into lakes and rivers around the state during November. The total stocking weighed more than 79,600 pounds.
Stockings that might be of interest to local anglers included 5,250 yearling blue catfish into DeGray Lake, 15,080 yearling blue catfish into Horseshoe Lake, and 26,275 yearling rainbow trout into the Little Red River.
Catfish, bream added to Lake
The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks also announced last week that it has stocked 200,000 bluegill, 10,000 channel catfish and 100,000 redear sunfish (shellcracker) into Lake Lamar Bruce in Lee County.
MDWFP fisheries biologist Tyler Stubbs said he hopes the stocking will delay a potential overcrowding issue with largemouth bass.
The lake, which is located near Saltillo, Miss., is still under renovation and will not open to the public until 2015.
Youth waterfowl camp set for Jan. 30
The MDWFP is teaming up with Memphis-based Ducks Unlimited for a special Youth Waterfowl Hunting and Education Camp on Jan. 30-Feb. 2. The camp will be held in the Mississippi Delta on a private hunting club in Quitman County.
Organizers hope the camp will recruit and retain new waterfowl hunters while teaching participants a new appreciation for wetland and waterfowl conservation. Hunting experience is not required.
All children ages 13-15 are encouraged to apply. Because of limited space, only 15 will be selected.
Applications are available online at mdwfp.com/youthwaterfowlcamp. Applicants must complete an essay on their desire to learn about waterfowl hunting.

Arizona Cardinals
Antonio Cromartie says there's 'potential' in the Arizona Cardinals' secondary
When the Arizona Cardinals signed cornerback Antonio Cromartie, they bolstered an already strong secondary.
Cromartie, a three-time Pro Bowler -- including each of the past two seasons -- will line up with cornerback Patrick Peterson to create one of the best cornerback tandems in the NFL.
"There's a lot potential here," Cromartie said at OTAs on Tuesday. "It's all about us coming and gelling together."
Cromartie, 30, was the Jets' top cornerback in 2013 after the team traded Darrelle Revis to Tampa Bay. In his eight-year career, the last four with New York, Cromartie intercepted 28 passes.
On the other side of the field, Peterson has 12 career interceptions and has emerged as an elite cornerback. After dabbling a bit on offense and being the team's primary punt returner the last three seasons, Peterson is expected to be focused squarely on his defensive role in 2014.
"It's a passing league," Peterson said. "It's going to take us to win ballgames."
All of the potential that the Cardinals have still has to materialize on the field, and the back end of the secondary is relatively young.
Peterson, entering his fourth season in the NFL, is the longest tenured with the Cardinals among the likely secondary starters in 2014.
Second-year safety Tyrann Mathieu is coming off tears to his ACL and LCL and first-round pick Deone Bucannon figures to start a rookie.
"I'm in love with the new look," Peterson said.

Most Helpful Opinion
Remember: Cute is very personal to a guy. What turns on one guy may not turn on another.
But for me personally. Cute is first of all in the face.
Then in her personality. If she's kinda shy, a little nervous that's kinda cute. A Girl that's all over the place and very chatty and noisy is not so cute.
I had a post earlier about cute vs hot. Go look at it.

THE BACHELOR's Desiree Hartsock took to Twitter yesterday in defense of her brother who many fans believe was the source behind her surprising elimination on this week's episode. During Hartsock's 'hometown visit', her brother accused Bachelor Sean Lowe of being a "playboy" during their one-on-one meeting.
"Men may come and go but family is there long after the show," maintained the bachelorette. "#lovemyfam #yeseventheoutspokenbro #lifeliveson.
She added: "You can't ruin something that isn't complete so be easy on my bro. A man who truly loved me would see past the family member I hardly see."
However Des conceded that her brother's comments were rude and possibly inappropriate. "Not justifying them," she tweeted. "Just forgive him and can't stay bitter forever. #gottamoveon."
The reality star went on to thank fans for their support since Monday night's episode hit the airwaves and shared that she had no regrets over her decision to compete on the reality dating competition. "Mistakes are just the stakes it takes to see if decisions made were the make or break," she mused. "#noregrets only #lifelessons." She added, "Thanks for the love everyone. All things happen for a reason so don't feel bad for me. Forgiveness leads to happiness. #bachelorwisdom xoxox."
On next week's episode of the show, Lowe takes the remaining three women, Catherine Giudici, Lindsay Yenter and AshLee Frazier to romantic Thailand where he hopes he will be able to have a clear understanding of who he'd like to spend the rest of his life with. The episode airs The Monday, February 25 on ABC.

Taking Stock: The Writing Process Movement in the '90s
Lad Tobin, Thomas Newkirk
Boynton/Cook, 1994 - Education - 287 pages
Until the late 1960s, English departments were almost exclusively literature departments. The teaching of writing was seen only as an apprenticeship for graduate students and part-timers who hoped to move on soon to more gratifying work, and most students' writing processes consisted of "procrastinate, write, hand in, hope for the best". Taking Stock examines how all of this changed. Advocates of the writing process movement, though diverse in their training and interests, offered a new vision of composition teaching and research. More than twenty-five years after the appearance of these radically new ideas, Taking Stock reassesses the ways that the writing process has been taught, institutionalized, researched, and theorized. A collection of articles drawn from the University of New Hampshire's historic 1992 conference on the writing process movement, Taking Stock presents some of the major figures - such as James Britton, Peter Elbow, Ken Macrorie, James Moffett, and Donald Murray - who reflect on their early contributions in light of contemporary developments. Other contributors offer new answers to persistent questions - about gender and authority in process classrooms; about why authors, teachers, and scholars use such different language when they talk about the writing process; about the search for the self in an age of postmodernism. Written in a style that is both personal and academic, practical and theoretical, Taking Stock is an accessible and timely book.

A U.N. spokesman says a vehicle belonging to a team investigating the Syrian regime's alleged use of chemical weapons has been "deliberately shot at multiple times" by unidentified snipers in Damascus.Meanwhile, reportedly the U.S. military is getting ready to launch a bunch of cruise missiles into the country. Iran, Russia and Syrian President Assad are warning against U.S. intervention, warning there will be consequences for such actions.
Martin Nesirky, who is spokesman for U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, says the Monday shooting occurred in the buffer zone area between rebel- and government-controlled territory.
He says the team will return to the area after replacing the vehicle.
A war of words erupted on Sunday over Syria as Washington said it was ready to take action over chemical weapons attacks and Tehran warned US intervention would carry "harsh consequences".A short and oversimplified version of what's going on in Syria looks like this:

Cue RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) in 3…2…1.
Khloe Kardashian went on George Lopez last night, and compared going through airport security to being raped in public. Whoopsie daisies! She's definitely going to piss off a lot of people with that comment!
Khloe told Lopez she hates flying, and going through the TSA screening is part of the reason why. "Well, they basically just are raping you in public. I got asked the other day, do you want to go for a screening or get padded down, I don't want that X-Ray to see everything, honey," she said.
"The people are so aggressive! It's like, 'Chill out, you didn't find anything on me yet, calm down,'" Kardashian added. "They say, 'OK, I'm going to be patting you down and I'm going to be touching the crease of your ass.' That is so inappropriate!"
I totes agree with her on all fronts, but maybe she should have chosen a different comparison? How bout….going through security is like being groped by a nasty dude on the dance floor of a club. That's much better!

I am so pleased that Bill Scher joins us for an FDL Book Salon on his book Wait! Don't Move to Canada: A Stay-and-Fight Strategy to Win Back America today. Bill is the Executive Editor at Liberal Oasis, and appears regularly on Air America — but he is also an outstanding liberal/progressive voice and a former PR guy, so he knows a lot about the whole image and meme and framing discussions that need to be had, about which we talk frequently here at FDL and all over the progressive blogosphere.
And, I am hoping, a discussion that we can kick-start even more here today.
Bill's book is fantastic — and a lot of the ideas in it give you hands-on approaches to tackling political problems and demanding accountability from your elected representatives. It begins by examining what it means to be a liberal — by taking a peek at a fantastic speech given by JFK back in 1960, which is still as relevent today as it was back then:
What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label "Liberal?" If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then the record of this party and its members demonstrate that we are not that kind of "Liberal." But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."
I previously quoted a portion of that speech here on FDL a couple of weeks ago on the anniversary of JFK's death, and it is worth a re-read in its entirety if you are not familiar with the speech. John F. Kennedy was a man who understood not only the power of words, but that the use of them took away power from those who would seek to use them against you. This is a lesson on which current leadership in the Democratic party ought to take copious notes.
One thing that Bill makes clear in Wait! Don't Move To Canada! is that we have for far too long allowed the conservative smear of the word "liberal" to stand unchallenged. Democratic politicians tap dance around using the label (the Dukakis vignette that Bill shares in the book is spot on), and far too often "progressives" shy away from the label as well. Politicians will not start reclaiming the label unless they feel like folks have their back — isn't it about time we all dusted off the "liberal" label and wore it proudly? Hell, conservatives don't shy away from labelling themselves "conservative," and they are currently led by George W. Bush. We can at least hold our heads high and say "I didn't vote for him, and you can call me his opposite any day."
"Hello, my name is Christy. And I am a proud liberal." (See, it's not so hard.)
Bill's background in PR work, prior to his start in blogging, gives him a great deal of experience and a unique persepctive from which to view the importance of language and its powerful uses for communicating a targeted message — as opposed to allowing the conservatives and wingnuts control the language. It is essential that we learn how to be on offense in terms of messaging and language, because to cede that field only puts on squarely on the defensive, in a weakened position, time and time again. And to do that allows someone else to control the direction and priorities, because the Democratic party is then forced to consistently defend itself instead of proposing policies that the other side must defend against.
One of my favorite aspects of Bill's book is the practical applications that he finds for applying these theoretical communications questions. Take, for example, the questions of "big versus small" government as compared to "ineffective versus effective government."
It is essential for us to make the case that without a representative, responsive and responsible governing body, there are some things we just can't do, like effectively educate our kids and care for our elders, preserve our environment so we can live healthy and enjoyable lives, and protect our towns and cities from the horrors of natural disasters. If conservative forces succeed in continuing to erode our trust in what we can accomplish together through government, our expectations and standards will wither, our government will disintegrate from lack of support, and too many of us will fall through society's cracks. (p. 37)
Well, that pretty much sums up the opposite end of the spectrum from Grover Norquist's desire to drown government in a bathtub, doesn't it? As Bill says in the book, two great ways of reframing the discussion are (1) to find ways wherein government is doing a good job, and to use those effective means of government as the foundation for a discussion with others on what good government can be; and (2) where government is not working effectively, instead of blaming it "on government" blame it on the poorly designed programs and discuss ways in which reforms could make the situation better. Often the problem is not a particular agency or program, but the pork-barrel riders and restrictions placed on the agency trying to implement a well-intentioned program that got hijacked along the way by cronyism and special interests.
As usual, sunshine and accountability are vital to success on this.
One of the more eye-opening aspects of this book is the results of the Greenberg survey on taxation that Bill cites more fully beginning on page 45. A full 84% of Americans agreed with the following statement: "I don't mind paying taxes because my taxes contribute to making sure we have public schools, clean streets, public safety and a national defense, and a cleaner environment." Not exactly what you hear from the punditocracy on Sunday morning news show, now is it? But honestly, wouldn't we all be happier if our tax dollars were headed to programs which were effective, targeted and showing results, which helped our communities as a whole, and which gave us a good return for our investment in our communities and our nation?
Of course, we would.
The disagreement comes in with regard to which programs fit this and, we're in luck, because Wait! Don't Move to Canada! has some ideas on that as well. One of the biggest areas of disagreement throughout the Bush years has been "culture war" issues. Since Karl Rove and his cronies at the RNC have had no scruples in terms of leveraging Jesus for political gain, we have witnessed a wholesale politicization of some aspects of churchgoing and some battles being waged over issues on which, fundamentally, a majority of Americans agree for the most part — but are convinced through some very effective snake oil and tap dancing to think otherwise.
One of the main beneficiaries of this smoke and mirrors game the last few years has been the placement of some very conservative judges on the federal bench.
We spent a lot of time on the Roberts and Alito fights here at FDL, and across the liberal blogosphere, so our regular readers will know about that — but it hasn't been only the US Supreme Court where this battle has been waged. Each and every time you hear a GOP politician say the words "activist judge," you should be prepared with the facts on who is really legislating from the bench: let's just say that Clarence Thomas has some 'splaining to do. Helpfully, Bill lays a lot of that out for you in clear terms, and offers some ideas on how to combat this sort of spin.
The phone calls that we have advocated each and every time a nomination has come to the floor haven't won the day on every nomination, but they are beginning to have an effect on how hard a lot of our elected representatives are willing to push for liberal principles and to stand up for the Constitution.
What we CAN do is to continue this fight for every issue to come — and to make them understand that we will not abandon our principles any more than the other side will abandon theirs.
Bill puts forward a lot of fantastic, practical, and common sense ideas for a hands-on effort for liberals all over the country to be able to make a difference. From ideas on how to make local grassroots groups more effective, to guidelines for better letters to the editor, to confronting media bias, to finding ways of funding liberal outlets for alternative media and pushback.
…As Daou notes, the blogosphere gives individuals a medium to "put pressure on representatives." "Pressure" does not always take the form of brute force; it can also be applied with constructive criticism. And "representatives" does not only mean your elected representatives. Organizations that are spearheading the liberal movement are indirectly representing you when they campaign for goals that you support.
They need to hear from us. They need to hear from people with an outsiders' perspective who can spot things that myopic insiders miss. They need to hear when they are doing stuff right, and when they are doing stuff wrong so they'll get better.
So, when you notice liberal leaders failing to communicate uniform messages on a particular issue, or focusing on separate issues when they should be joining forces on a pressing issue, point it out to them. Nudge them to get on the same page. Constantly remind them that unless we are coordinated at the top, we will not be able to articulate a compelling vision of America — and, conversely, an unappealing vision of a conservative America — and have it be clearly heard throughout today's cluttered and manipulated media landscape.
Sound familiar? We do this every week somewhere across the liberal blogosphere, and without the institutionalized funding support that the conservative foundations set up long ago to fund their Wurlitzer of conservative blogs, think tanks and mouthpieces. We have a long way to go — but we are working on it, and discussions like this one do a lot to further that work.
One way that we have tried to leverage this new concept of grassroots action was through our Blue America candidates list, which had some great success this past election cycle. Through the genius of ActBlue, lots of blog communities and netroots groups across the counrty were able to do the same thing — and to help candidates $10 at a time, one reader at a time, to purchase postcards and radio time and all the other things that make a small-time campaign a more effective one.
Wait! Don't Move To Canada! is a book that I cannot recommend enough. It's a quick read, but one that you'll pick up over and over again for ideas on what you can do — and how you can say what you need to say — to make your activism more effective.
The big lesson from this book — and from the last election cycle — that I hope we all take away is this: if you see a problem, you cannot sit back and wait for someone else to take care of it. We have all got to learn that everyone has to step up to the plate. If you see something that isn't working well, try and fix it. If there is a local organization that isn't doing the job effectively, get involved with it and try and make it better — or start your own group to counteract the bad one if it is beyond saving.
Just don't move to Canada — try fixing things here first, instead. And now, please join me in giving a big welcome to Bill Scher.
[As always with Book Salon threads, please stay on topic with the discussion below. Please be polite and give a big welcome to Bill. If you have issues you'd like to discuss which are off-topic, please do so in the prior thread. Thanks! — CHS]

"Today, thanks to breakthroughs in neuroscience research techniques, scientists have been able to literally view the activity of the brain as it functions. With state-of-the-art mapping and imaging tools, researchers have unlocked a new world of data on what happens between your ears each day. In addition, new methods of tracking brain chemicals have allowed scientists to understand when and how much of these chemicals are released and how they influence behavior. We now have scientific studies about brain function and sexual thoughts and behavior that are not only fascinating but are true breakthroughs in our understanding of ourselves and the intriguing part of our behavior called sex.
And yes, this new science does establish once and for all that more happens during sex than physical activity or the transfer of secretions, sperm, or germs. What we now know from science is what some have been saying for years-that the largest and most important sex organ is the brain. In fact, the brain itself is being molded by sexual behavior."
-From Hooked
"I had no idea having sex as a teenager
could affect the rest of my life."
What does a three-pound brain have to do with one's sex life? A lot, actually.
Breakthroughs in the burgeoning field of neuroscience explain the impact of sex on the developing brains of adolescents and young adults.
Through scientific data put in layman's terms, this book demonstrates that:
¿ Sexual activity releases chemicals in the brain, creating emotional bonds between partners.
¿ Breaking these bonds can cause depression and make it harder to bond with someone else in the future.
¿ Chemicals released in the brain during sex can become addictive.
¿ The human brain is not fully developed until a person reaches their mid-20s. Until then, it is harder to make wise relationship decisions.
Parents and others who care about young people now have the facts to steer them away from making life-changing mistakes, and lead them toward reaching their full potential.

About سلمي حايك
سلمي حايك This can be considered a digital form of pencil testing. سلمي رشيد ناويلك Yaoi refers to male homosexual pairings, and yuri to female homosexual pairings. سلمي حايك This has an impact on the writing of the show; in order to provide a smooth transition as well as keep the audience from switching channels. سلمي حايك Disregarding the pain she is feeling in her chest from the attached chain, she hurls her body into the arm that the Hollow is choking Tatsuki with.
Yuri is not very similar to yaoi, except that the focus is not on female homosexual interactions.
Editing the film at the animatic stage prevents the animation of scenes that would be edited out of the film; as traditional animation is a very expensive and time-consuming process, creating scenes that will eventually be edited out of the completed cartoon is strictly avoided.
سلمي حايك There are also two main categories of hentai: works that feature mainly heterosexual interactions often abbreviated as het, and those that feature mainly homosexual interactions. Romance Videos industry practice tends to favor longer seasons than those of some other countries. The storyboard and soundtrack are amended if necessary, and a new animatic may be created and reviewed with the director until the storyboard is perfected.
Inoue and Tatsuki look around desperate to find out where the sounds are coming from.
The ghostly image of the Hollow stands before her and continues to beat her to the ground as an impression of his hand print is left in the carpet.
سلمي حايك Animatics use drawn artwork, with moving pieces for example, an arm that reaches for a product, or a head that turns.

35 year old man | Toronto, ON, CAN | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
Rest assured, you will like me more in person than in the picture.
This is ridiculously hard, i have a job, and i take care of myself, and others around me. I am a down to earth family oriented guy. I live a very active life, and trust me on this when I say "active". I was born in the States, and now settled in Toronto for the time. I am looking for someone who is simple, sweet, active and professionally settled (i.e you have a job, and you are happy with it). I have passed the phase of being a boy; must admit I have enjoyed that phase a lot, and probably more than many others, but now I am looking for a meaningful relationship - hence, by definition I am looking for a WOMAN, not a GIRL. You and i can say what not here, but unless we meet we don't know anything, period. So why waste more time here? Lets just say, we will wink if we are interested, and then we can initiate a contact ...That way we save each other's time. And, please, save head-games for others, I am really bad at that ;) Rick UPDATES: Ok, so my friend who introduced me to this website said girls 'only' get swamped with emails/winks/likes - well, he was wrong! I am a polite/humble guy, so I feel bad not replying to messages or saying the obvious 'no' after the first date. Time well spent is well served! So I decided to pen down these to help save you time, and save myself the uneasy feelings. I am looking for someone special, and I am not that average guy who is looking for some fun time with you - please respect that. We are not a good match, under these circumstances : 1. You are not above 35; I want to have kids with you eventually, but not right away - and yes, as you may know the clock is ticking. 2. I am stressing again; you have a decent job to make living and you're happy with the job. 3. You like to travel. I have vacation houses/villas at different places, and I am an avid traveler. Pop-corn/movies once in a while is great, but that's not my universe. 4. If you have an ex, you have sealed the deal and have decided to move on. 5. You are not living with your parents. 6. You would not start comparing Toronto VS NYC. I was born and bred NYC, but I love both cities, period! 7. I dance, ski, skate, scuba dive, swim, bike, roller blade, paraglide, hand glide, jet ski, mountain bike, beach volleyball, base ball, soft ball, HOCKEY - you should be able to participate in at least a few of these activities. 8.You have friends, and family means something to you. 9. Irrespective of your past, you're NOT afraid to love and be loved. If not, you should see a therapist, and I am not one of them. 10. Your email is not a copy paste. 11. You have actually read my profile, and not asking a question whose answer is an open secret. 12. You are not a serial email dater or "get to know by email" kinda person. I know nothing about you until I meet you. Please respect my choices. Wish you all a very happy new year :)

You tryin' to be Martin Luther revisited
Lyric Meaning
They don't understand that this high profile activism is dangerous and not beneficial. They want to be like a reincarnated Martin Luther King, Jr, a black civil rights activist who ended up getting assassinated.
YC doesn't want whoever he is speaking to to be brave and take credit for their works, rather that they just do things behind the scenes so that they can continue to better the world.

Thread: Sean's Sketchbook

Sean's Sketchbook
Hello everyone! I've been lurking these forums for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to share some of my sketches. Any and all criticisms/critiques would be extremely helpful. To provide some context, I've always loved drawing since I was little. However, I never took any classes and was discouraged at the lack of progress I was making. In hindsight, I think a lot of this stems from the fact that I was utilizing a "cartoony" style (lots of symbol drawing, hard and overly geometric contour lines, lack of value & tone, etc). There are a lot of bad habits I'm struggling to shed, so it's a bit of a challenge.
After getting a B.A. in an unrelated field and being unhappy with where it was leading, I'm now determined to try and change my path. Since I work full time, I'm only enrolled in one evening class at the moment. However, I'll soon be taking several continuing education courses at Otis. I hope that with the combination of these classes and consistently keeping up a steady flow of drawing in my spare time, I might even be able to apply to art school within a couple of years.
Here is a quick sketch I did at the start of the Introduction to Drawing course to give an idea of where I'm coming from:
Value/tone exercise with charcoal:
This was a two-point perspective assignment. Sorry for the low contrast. I think one of biggest things I'm struggling with is knowing when to use darker and lighter tones, even for simple line drawings like this.
Here are some drawings I've recently attempted outside of the class (does anyone know the best way to prevent smudging? I've put a paper towel under my hand, wore a glove, tried adding in darker tones from left to right…):
Something is definitely off about the girl's face. Is it the proportion of her features? I also feel like her face looks too smooth/flat, like her facial bone structure needs more definition.
I'm taking an Introduction to Painting class in a couple of weeks, but here are some quick sketches I did outside and then tried mixing with watercolor:
This is a silly oil painting I made as a gift for someone last December. It was my first try at oil painting, so I was somewhat happy with it. I didn't have a small enough brush for details, so you can definitely see where I struggled. I wasn't too pleased with the right dog's features:
That's all I have for now. If anyone could suggest any specific areas of improvement, I would really appreciate it. I consider myself a blank slate at this point and want to have a firm grasp of the fundamentals. I'll continue to update this thread with some progress as my new classes start.

Your lines look strong and confident, which is good to see! I think the main area for improvement at the moment is your use of tone, which you mentioned already. The portrait of the girl, where you said something looks off about her face; I think it's mainly that there needs to be more contrast in light and dark to give more structure to her face. I'm really liking your work so far though, and you seem really motivated too. Keep it up!

Hunchdebunch: Thank you! I will definitely try to focus on improving the tone. I think I'm being too reliant on blending, which is leading to a muddied and messy look. I'll try adding darker shades and hopefully that will help things look a little less flat.

Hey, I have to say your story resonates a bit with me, haha, the whole, liked drawing, but "real life" and "sensible things" got in the way. I do enjoy my work now, just that I can't help think I've neglected one of my true loves... I should also maybe take a class or something... :/
Anyway! I totally understand wrt the cartoony drawing, all I used to see was outlines and it is hard to change that now. But I think you're doing very well, I really like the casual people sketches and I think you've got good skill in capturing faces because they look real good!

tortfuzz: Thank you, it's nice to know someone understands where I'm coming from!
Here's just one portrait sketch I tried today. I made a conscious effort to try and use more tone, but I think I sacrificed clean lines because of it. It looks fuzzier than I would have liked. Also struggled a bit with the proportions of his face due to the angle. Since his chin is turned upward, I think his face should actually be more squat. One step at a time...

There's something about seafood that makes people feel as though they've eaten healthy food. Walking around with that spring in their step caused by the freshest ocean flavours. These fresh and delcious ocean flavours can be found at Bellagio where you can enjoy the finest fish dishes in Johannesburg for R135.
Bellagio breathes new life into traditional seafood flair with a combination of modern and traditional recipes to spruce up classic favourites such as sushi and garlic mussels. Like the nerd at school who goes on to own computer corporations, so the unpretentious food at Bellagio bowls diners over with these lip-smacking flavours.
The simple and seasonal menu relies on its flavours to do the talking while the authentic Italian touch on every plate impresses even the pickiest of seafood aficionados pallets. Diners can prepare for a taste explosion as delicate flavours such as scallops, clams and caviar are perfectly matched with sherry, formagio and light butter sauces, causing an uprising amongst taste buds across Johannesburg. Be warned, your taste buds will demand this excellent food at every meal.
Italiano fact: During the early 1900's, the whole of Northern Italy ran out of paper due to the invention of the game "picturnerio" which depleted paper resources. This meant that menu restaurants had to write their menu on toilet paper which was useful as the menus could double up as napkins. This in turn ended the napkin industry in Northern Italy until 1965.

After a magnitude 7.0 earthquake rocked Haiti 10 miles from the capital of Port-au-Prince last week, the United States and countries around the world turned their focus to helping earthquake victims in need.
Americans have donated $150 million to Haiti; $12 million of that from text donations collected by the Red Cross, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy. And some of that aid is finally starting to reach Haitians on the ground. More than 600,000 humanitarian food rations have been brought into Haiti and 52 water distribution points have been established, according to the United States Agency for International Development.
The United Nations served food and water to 50,000 Haitians Saturday in Port-au-Prince.
If you want to get involved and donate to the relief effort, the following organizations are providing aid.

"We're providing medicine, food and medical care," the group's president and CEO Charles MacCormack said on "GMA" today. "We have child protection teams on the scene, because a lot of children were separated from their parents."
MacCormack had just returned from Haiti and said he was "really moved by the resilience in the Haitian people." His group recovered an 18-month-old baby from the rubble over the weekend.

This is a total steal. It's brick red in the tube, opaque creamy blue-red on lips. Yes, it is sheer in comparison to its tube color, but it's not translucent--it is pigmented on lips. I love it because, inexplicably, it doesn't turn fuschia on my lips. I'm NW15 and this shade just makes my skin look like cream. I do like that the lid is clear so you can see the lipstick color accurately, but I don't like how cheap the packaging looks or that the lipstick doesn't fully retract. Still, great for special occasions.

This lipstick has the texture of a rich balm. I love the way it feels on my lips. Sheer red is truly sheer. I was hesitant to buy thinking that the color that you see in the tube could in any way be sheer.
When I put it on not only did it feel great but found that it is the sheer red that I have been looking for but in lipstick form! The best thing is that I got this for .49. They are normally .99 but they were on sale. The packaging is cheap and you have to be careful putting the cap back on but this is not a deal breaker for me because the color is perfect!
It wouldn't be a bad idea to exfoliate really well the night before since the red emphasizes rougher patches.

This is a lovely color that starts off sheer and builds to more opaque coverage. I wanted to love it but I can't. The packaging is atrocious for all the reasons stated by others and on me it wears horribly, leaving patches of color after only thirty minutes or so. It's not bad for 99 cents, but if I could do it again, I'd put the 99 cents toward a more worthwhile lippie like revlon's, loreal's, or Mac Russian red.

I have strayed away from red lipsticks for years because I have not been able to find one that I like against my olive skin tone and I've tried so many h/e and d/s. I kept reading all the wonderful reviews on here about this color so one day I figured I'd try it. I took one swipe of this and fell in love! Its the perfect red for me. I've heard that it looks great against almost all skin tones. ITS MAGIC! LOL I don't rebuy too many products but IF I ever get through a whole tube of this I definately would rebuy.
The only thing I don't like is the packaging. The product doesn't swivel all the way back down in to the tube so you have to be extremely careful when putting the lid back on or you'll knick your lipstick.

In the tube it looks like a darker brick type red -- a color I wouldn't normally choose as orange based colors make me look flushed and ruddy. Also, owning the very pigment rich and very opaque Retro Red, also by N.Y.C., I was skeptical that this one could be anything but the same in intensity. But for 99 cents Sheer Red was worth a try and many people here gave it great reviews.
I am impressed. The color is a very muted cool toned red but there also isn't any hint of fuschia or pinkor berry in this red. There's something very unique about this shade. It's definitely a muted red, and even when I applied it full strength and built up the color it was not obnoxious or clownish. I think this is a very grown up and classy red. I think this lipstick could look great on any skin tone from light to dark and everything in between. It has a buttery shine to it, similar to a lip balm, and not dry or chalky at all. It has a very slight berryish smell that fades fast enough so it's not an issue for me. Also it wears comfortable and doesnt make my lips flake, tingle or feel dry or peel. The packaging isn't the greatest. I hate nicking the lipstick with the cap. Not a deal breaker though.

I have asian tan skin and this color is lovely and so cheap. It is a red berry but not tacky. More uptown. My lips are moisturized and the creamy texture glides on easy. But this is a true red that is sheer. Even with multiple coats. I am not a red lipstick fan but just go out with this one early summer dinner with light makeup and see what happens.
Do try different lip liners underneath if you want it to be more opaque. It does not have lasting power but it is a great lipstick color at a great price. Who would think?

I decided to try this lipstick on the critique by Paula Begoun as a good inexpensive lipstick. There is a fairly limited selection of colors for this formulation, and I do not like the high shimmer of some of the shades. That look is a little too "young" for me. I had wanted to try a red lipstick for a while--a true red with a blue undertone, rather than tending towards warmer orange red. The color looked like what I was looking for in the tube. I have light olive skin, a MAC NW15, and look best in cool, jewel toned colors. This lipstick did not appear as a true red on my lips, but tended towards a deeper but sheer berry color. I think it is very beautiful and I am pleased--I bought this at Ulta with a 20% off coupon, so I think I paid $.72. It is a steal. The packaging isn't luxurious, but I would rather have a decent product in economical packaging, than pay for some huge container that is just thrown away. This is not a long-lasting lipstick, but it wears as well as many other lipsticks I've tried in the $7-$10 dollar range (or my one luxury item: a lipstick by Shiseido that I bought for $25 to celebrate graduating from school recently). If you love to play with makeup, and are on a budget, I would recommend this lipstick. It is slightly glossy, though not slick or unpleasant feeling. I think with a clear or similarly colored lip pencil, you could increase the durability of wear of this lipstick. It does leave a slight stain on my lips, so I don't have to touch up as frequently as I do with a true gloss. Very sheer, pretty and I am quite satisfied. I leave off one "lipstick" in the rating because of the slight berry fragrance. It is not unpleasant. I just don't like to wear anything scented.

It's a little drying and only lasted a couple hours but for 99 cents...amazing!
I want them all! :P

LOVE this!!! Firstly, the color is perfect for me. I am a gal who is fairish and yet has yellowish slightly oliveish tones and can not ever wear a red lippie. So this is my new fave for a night out or even during the day whenever i wouldve wanted to wear red. Since this is sheer, you get a little pink showthrough from your natural lip color, which makes it look like a verging on pink kind of red. It is very flattering and for a red very ...umm innocent and sweet. I can not think of any skin or hair colors this wouldnt compliment well. The formula itself is superior to many more expensive brands. It is not sticky, does not run, and stayed on a few hours (though it did fade, it was still looking good) through 2 coffees! The only problem i have is that the lippie, when new, doesnt go down very far in the tube so you must be mindful when placing cap on not to nic it. Small price to pay!!!

It's hard to be critical of a $1 l/s in a pretty color but I found the cheap packaging a pain (you can knick the whole thing easily while putting the cap on) and while the color is a dupe of BB's Ruby Lip Sheer on me the consistency is thinner, so it doesn't last long on my lips. It's a gorgeous color though; a clear, slightly warm red which contrasts well with my blue eyes in a pleasing way.
