Thread: Master head copies
October 1st, 2002 #1
Master head copies
didn't know where to post these... anyway- copying heads from old masters' paintings. in pencil tho (is it useless? i guess i learn the values at least). i remember jason saying we should copy master drawings but i still haven't found a book on those (probably not available at all in these parts) so i'm copying reproductions from art books that are available to me
i'll post more as i scan (have about a dozen unscanned) and go along
p.s. these were done with a mechanical pencil so it doesn't scan very well

Good book to master copy from
What's crackin MR.T
I am taking a life drawing class right now and the instructor asked us to buy a book called "Anatomy Lessons from the Great Masters" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. I think it is a great book to copy from. Also I think your master copies kick @zz!

Very strong work. You did a great job, especially on the nose in the second one.
You might want to render everything you've drawn rather than leaving some of it as unfinished line drawings. I personally find it a little distracting when part of a piece is so obviously 2D, especially when the transition from 2D to 3D is on the same form (the head, in this case). Of course that's just my opinion, and better artists than I might disagree.
The eyes and the lips seem a little flat to me. Sometimes you have to go out of your way to show the thickness of eyelids, but it really pays off.
I hope you find this helpful. Great work!
I second the recommendation of Anatomy Lessons from the Great Masters. It's well worth buying.

Several in-flight connectivity stakeholders are hopeful the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the FAA will open the discussion about overturning their bans on the airborne usage of cell phones.
At present, FAA and FCC regulations require that cellular handsets be turned off once an aircraft leaves the ground. The FCC issued a notice of proposed rulemaking in 2005 to overturn this ban, but consumer groups and flight attendant unions strongly objected. In 2007, the FCC terminated its proceeding on the in-flight use of cellular telephones.
However, a more permanent federal ban is moving its way through Congress. The US House of Representatives recently passed FAA Reauthorization legislation that includes an amendment to formally ban the in-flight use of wireless devices for voice communications in the USA.
Lawmakers who support the bill argue that the US public does not want to be subjected to people talking on their cell phones during flight.
The Senate is now working on its own version of the bill. Should lawmakers opt to keep the House amendment, a permanent federal ban of in-flight cell phone use will be in place in the USA.
As the amendment is considered by Senators, members of the Inflight Passenger Communications Coalition (IPCC), including AeroMobile, OnAir and Panasonic, "are hoping the FCC and FAA will consider a parallel process while we deal with a proposed ban", says OnAir chief regulatory officer Asbjorn Christoffersen.
He adds: "We are also hopeful that US airlines will start expressing some desire to deploy the service so that we can get the ball rolling."
Christoffersen says 1,000,000 passengers are being exposed to OnAir's mobile connectivity solution each month and "no passenger has gone out there and said this service is not desirable".
"We haven't heard any issues at all. On the contrary, passengers expect to do SMS, email and the odd phone call. It really is not that big a thing. It's business as usual. There is really no reason to prevent US airlines from operating this service."

First Raf Simons at Dior and Heidi Slimaine at Saint Laurent, now Donna Karan diffusion label DKNY is to be overseen by two young men with menswear in their blood
Market for men's fashion grown by 18% in past five years and is worth £12.9bn, which is welcome news before London shows
The catwalks have witnessed a revolution – clothes to keep you cosy. But don't think you can surrender to practicality, warns Jess Cartner-Morley
Brandon Stanton makes fashion store's use of his street photographs without permission pay with $100,000 success

There was a glam rock feel to the shaggy shearling waistcoats and Lurex tunic dresses at the first major show of New York fashion week, reports Jess Cartner-Morley
Luxury fashion chain Burberry yesterday chose the woman who runs the Juicy Couture and DKNY Jeans brands as its new chief executive after offering her a pay package worth $31m (£18m) over five years.
Ralph Lauren, king of sleek uptown dressing, dubbed his look for next winter "thoroughbred dressing", as Donna Karan embraced "equestrian gallantry" in her DKNY diffusion line. Whatever you wish to call it, horsey dressing is back.
Hosiery trends divide the truly dedicated fashionista from the pack. Any part-timer can find the right cut of coat or the right colour of shoe, but only the truly fashion-obsessed bother ascertaining and tracking down the right tights.
Designer knickers: what's the point, eh? Once you're in a knickers-type situation, you have got beyond the label snobbery stage, presumably. But expensive underwear had an undeniable allure long before Agent Provocateur made it de rigueur to shell out for fancy smalls: before style magazines invented the term 'stealth wealth' to describe hotels with no name outside and cashmere dressing gowns, lingerie was the original way to splurge it.

Luckily, our brains are too small to process the scale here. Otherwise I might feel a bit humbled.

No. We literally can't comprehend the scale. It does not compute.
Reply+2#55 to #51 - creepyunclebob (03/16/2013) [-]
Obviously we can understand it conceptually, but we can't visualize it. The size of the solar system and the bodies in it is an abstract idea. We can look at the numbers, we can see the comparisons, but that isn't the same as seeing an accurate picture of how it is in reality.

again, you are wrong. there are simulations, telescopes, probes. we have a very good idea of how everything in the universe works together. it's not perfect, but that's because we haven't had enough time yet. give it about 20 years. we have the capacity, we just lack the technology to make it happen.
Reply+2#62 to #59 - creepyunclebob (03/16/2013) [-]
Not the same at all. I don't mean "we don't know how big stuff is," I mean we can't comprehend it. Try visualizing yourself next to the sun.
Reply-2#65 to #62 - iamkagji (03/16/2013) [-]
I can do that. It is very simple if you have the necessary mental faculties. I have no problem with envisioning any part of the physical universe. This includes non-visual particles and the Higgs field. All you need is the knowledge. I do not have a problem if you say that YOU cannot understand these things, but we as a species are capable of comprehending anything.

Sorry, you're wrong. We've gotten to the point in the debate where whatever we say is a direct contradiction of what the other says, so that's all I got.

The best way to start a project in Node is to create a package.jason file. In this video we'll use the npm command to generate this file for us. First let's create a folder for this project. I'm going to create it on the desktop and name it airline. Now go to terminal. Type in cd and space, and now drag the folder into terminal to get the path. Now type return. Now I'm going to use a tool called npm. Npm is distributed with node and it helps with module installation, among other things Right now we're going to use npm to help us generate a package.json file.
To do that type npm and it. After you press enter, it'll step you through the creation of the file. The first thing it prompts you for is the name, and if you don't specify a name, it'll just use the name of the folder where the package.json file is going to be. In this case it's airline, and that's fine with me. So I'm going to hit return. Next it's going to ask you for a version. In this case, I'm just going to accept the default because I don't care. Next, it's going to ask for description of the project. Let's type in a small description.
After the description, it's going to prompt for an entry point. Every project that you create in Node is going to have an entry point. And in this case I'm just going to accept the default of index.js. Now it's going to prompt for a test command. Later on, we can set this up to automatically run unit tests. But at the moment, we're just going to leave this blank. After test, it allows us to supply the path to a git repository. This is useful if you're distributing your project to someone else, but in this case we're just building it for ourself.
So leave git repository blank. Next there are keywords. Again, this is if you're distributing the project elsewhere, so leave it blank. Now it's prompting for an author. In this case, I'm going to type in my name, and then I'm going to supply my email address in angle brackets. After author, it's going to prompt for a license. You can add any license you like here. And, in this case, I'm just going to accept the default. After answering all of the questions, it's going to show you a preview of the package.json file. If everything is okay, you can just type return.
Now, when we list the contents of the folder, there's a package.json file. I'm going to open it up in SublimeText. The package.json file identifies a project, who authored it, and which file is the entry point. This file will also keep track of the modules this project depends on. In the next video, we'll use this package.json file to keep track of the community-provided modules as we're installing them.

Originally written on Bloguin Best | Last updated 11/21/12
It is quite possible the NBA has seen the last of the playing days of Brandon Roy. After coming out of retirement after many devastating knee injuries, the Minnesota Timberwolves signed Roy in the hopes his knee issues were a thing of the past and he was ready to prove his naysayers wrong. Instead, it seems his naysayers and teams who passed on signing him were right - his knee issues were still something to stay away from. Roy injured his right knee and went under the knife once again to repair his injury. "Brandon Roy will undergo arthroscopic knee surgery this week, the seventh knee surgery of his career. Roy fatefully banged his knee in the Wolves' final preseason game, which led to ongoing soreness and caused him to miss the past four games. His upcoming surgery is another sad if predictable chapter in his NBA career, and could very well signal the end of his season, if not his career." Though the injury was considered a "success", you have to wonder if this is it ...

Though he follows technology for a living, Ian Warmerdam admits that, personally, he's usually a late adopter. "I certainly didn't camp out to buy an iPhone 5, and I can't imagine I'd ever be excited enough about a new piece of consumer technology to even stand in line for it," says the lead manager of the $339 million Henderson Global Technology Fund (ticker: HFGAX).
That's fitting of his investment strategy, which avoids the "hype cycle" that is typical of the early stages of a technology company. "We're looking for new and exciting technologies, but the problem is, so is everyone," says Warmerdam, who thinks that's currently the case with cloud-computing and 3-D printing. "By the time they come to the public market, they tend to have the kind of high valuations we wouldn't tolerate."
After the frenzy, however, there is often a period of dissolution, followed by recovery and then apathy. That's when Warmerdam, 39, likes to make his move.
Ian Warmerdam combined his love of chess and suspicion of technology into a successful stock-picking strategy. Martin Hunter for Barron's
As a kid growing up on a sheep farm in the Scottish Highlands, Warmerdam was a keen chess player, and even competed, until he realized "this was not a path to getting a girlfriend." After studying technology and business at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, he became intrigued with portfolio management, which he likens to his childhood passion. "It's something that's both analytical and competitive," he says. After working his way up from analyst to investment manager at prominent United Kingdom investment and insurance firms, Warmerdam joined U.K.-based Henderson Global Investors in 2001.
His global tech fund launched on Aug. 31, 2001. The timing wasn't exactly ideal—post-bubble, investors were not very interested in tech stocks. "I knew the near-term prospects would not be very good, but I believed in the long-term prospects," he says. Indeed, the dot-com debacle was a wake-up call for tech companies and investors. "The companies we see today have some of the healthiest balance sheets of any industry," he says. Henderson Global Technology is up 12.8% a year over the past decade, better than 90% of its peers.
Working with co-manager Stuart O'Gorman out of the firm's Edinburgh office, Warmerdam aims to hold between 45 and 60 stocks of varying market caps. The team looks for companies it believes to be truly undervalued and can hold for five years or longer, a lifetime in this universe.
When searching for investment ideas, Warmerdam tends to focus on one of five key themes: e-commerce, online advertising, data, connectivity, and paperless payment. Lest the focus on e-commerce and online advertising raises eyebrows, Warmerdam says, "People say these are old news, to which I say, we've barely scratched the surface."
In fact, many of the fund's top holdings have been around for more than a decade, survived the boom-and-bust cycle of the late 1990s and remain leaders today, only at more compelling prices.

The fund's most recent purchase was January 2009 at $59, when it was trading at just over one times forward sales, a far cry from the 32 times it was fetching in 1999. The stock now trades at $268 a share, in part because of its move into cloud-computing, which Henderson considers icing on the cake.

Cisco, now with $110 billion in market value, has undoubtedly moved from a high-growth firm to one with more modest growth but attractive valuations: It's trading at less than 11 times forward earnings. At its peak in 1999, it was priced at 150 times earnings, says Warmerdam. "Returns will be driven by management's acceptance that they are now a modest-growth company and are managing accordingly," he adds. "Revenues should grow in line with, or slightly ahead of, the broad market, with faster earnings growth."

Although U.S. companies typically account for 60% to 70% of the portfolio, the fund takes a more global perspective than its sector peers. "We think there's a real opportunity in buying small- and mid-cap companies internationally," he says. "Many of our competitors don't invest outside the U.S. at all."

While the displacement of print real-estate ads is hardly a new trend, Warmerdam believes the company still has a great deal of headroom for increasing revenue, both through greater market share and incremental price increase. "A significant amount of real-estate advertising still happens on paper, but it has been steadily moving online," he says.
After all, it's all about the endgame.

northwesterly, then a northerly, track. Continuing to curve to the right, it eventually heads to the northeast. It is possible that at this point its speed will increase, which accounts for the usual path of hurricanes that originate in the Atlantic Ocean near the Cape Verde Islands, North Africa, and track into the Caribbean and the southern United States, as well as those that originate near southern Mexico and track into the Pacific Ocean toward Hawaii, moving around the Pacific High. In the southern hemisphere, after traveling west initially, hurricanes recurve to the southwest and then the southeast. There is no assurance that hurricanes will always follow these paths; there are many exceptions where they have plowed straight west or northwesterly, the Galveston storm in 1900 being an example. The direction of hurricanes is frequently altered by encountering high-altitude winds. Once they reach colder land or water, they lose water and energy and dissipate.
The life cycle of a hurricane as viewed from an endangered vessel at sea starts at the bridge, where the captain observes that the barometer has fallen several millibars in the last 20 hours. Weather reports indicate a tropical disturbance moving westward toward the vessel at 10 knots. Shipboard instruments show that the seawater temperature is 29 degrees Celsius (84 degrees Fahrenheit). The sudden drop in atmospheric pressure is significant; when combined with the sea temperature it indicates a tropical storm is possible. The captain contacts the National Hurricane Center by radio and receives the latest satellite photographs.12
The storm is now classified as a tropical depression. The satellite photos show the characteristic spiral pattern of clouds, extending out 100 nautical miles with a central pressure down to 990 millibars. Subsequent reports from the National Weather Service indicate maximum winds of 80 knots; the central pressure has dropped to 980 millibars.
The captain makes a sharp turn to the northeast, since his vessel is on the right side of the forward track of the storm. He observes that seas have built to 33 feet. He keeps the wind on his starboard bow and makes as much way as possible at 16 knots, hoping the storm does not

Numbers Game (World Cup edition): History favors Brazil, but hosts' ugly play gives Germany the edge on the pitch
The phrase is "Jogo Bonito" -- it's the Portuguese for "beautiful game" and it's always been closely associated with Brazil, a country known mostly for beautiful beaches, beautiful weather and beautiful soccer. Not so this year. Brazil is indeed back in their normal spot among the best teams in the world but, as they approach Tuesday afternoon's semifinal match with Germany, they've gotten there by playing cynical, ugly and -- at times -- dangerous soccer. And it's probably going to get worse against the Germans.
Like the well-manicured pitch itself, this World Cup looked immaculate at first but has deteriorated over time. In the Group Stage, we saw goals galore, some terrific individual performances, lots of drama and no shortage of surprises. As the competition has drawn ever closer to its conclusion, the games have tightened up and the individual flair has been crunched out of many games.
Ironically enough, Brazil has been the guiltiest party in this degradation of Jogo Bonito . Brazil started out with a more aesthetically pleasing, if a bit flawed, win against Croatia in which they passed the ball nearly 400 times and committed just five fouls. But as this chart below shows, over the course of the tournament, as Brazil's dependence on star forward Neymar and inability to play freeflowing soccer has become plain to see, the Brazilians have resorted to fouling and more direct play. Only Uruguay -- who also played without their star Luis Suarez -- committed more fouls per game than Brazil has.
The Brazil-Colombia quarterfinal was in many ways a complete disgrace. There were 54 fouls in the match itself, with the Spanish referee Carlos Velasco Carballo completely derelict in his duty, failing to show a yellow card for persistent fouling until far too late in the match. As a result, the physicality escalated to the point where Neymar suffered a fractured vertebra and will miss the remainder of the tournament. It's a shame Neymar has to suffer for the sins of his teammates and the style Brazil has fomented, but in this tournament in which teams have relied increasingly upon individual genius, the spark and invention of the Brazilians is now gone.
The Germans have played a style that would look to the average observer much more "Brazilian" -- completing an average of over 600 passes per game over the last three contests. Though they passed the ball fluidly, they've been unable to turn that passing prowess into goals -- mainly because they lack that true "superstar" that teams like Brazil and Argentina (Lionel Messi) possess. In an effort to change that, they started with 36-year-old striker Miroslav Klose against France and became a much more direct team. Their pass totals plummeted, but the attacks that had often ended because they lacked a true striker were suddenly a bit more threatening.
Additionally, they've executed well on set pieces over the course of the tournament, scoring the only goal against France from a Mats Hummels header off a free kick. Brazil will not only be missing Neymar in this match, but also their captain and defensive heart Thiago Silva, suspended for picking up a foolish yellow card against Colombia (his second in five matches). His loss is every bit as big as Neymar's, but for different reasons. Germany could not have asked for a more favorable set of circumstances for their match and if it was being played anywhere else other than in Brazil, Germany would be a big favorite.
However, people pick against Brazil only at their peril. Brazil's not lost a competitive match on home soil since 1975 and not lost any match at home including friendlies since a friendly loss against Paraguay in which Brazil was playing an experimental group in the wake of having won the 2002 World Cup. Not only that, but Brazil has also won each of the last six semifinal matches in which they've played, five in regular time and only once needing penalties. Logic, as it so often does, says Germany should win, but history once again favors the Brazilians.

Extended parking meter hours begin Monday in Phoenix
You'll have to drop coins into downtown Phoenix parking meters later starting Monday.
"We changed (our meter hours) from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday to 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day, including weekends and holidays," said City of Phoenix spokesman Mathew Heil.
Heil says you'll still pay $1.50 per hour, but that may soon change. Demand-based pricing of up to $4 an hour could start sometime in November, he said.
"That's going to be based in large part on how we see this extension of hours goes," said Heil. "The key point for us is that we want people to be parking at the meters, and using the meters. If we see a change in behavior, we're going to try to adapt to that as well."
Meanwhile, the city is working to upgrade 1,500 meters to accept credit cards. When the upgrades are completed, roughly 80 percent of the meters will be able to accept both credit cards and coins.

Installing WordPress on your computer gives you a perfect testing ground for experimentation, theme development, plugin testing, and website development. This course is designed for developers and users who want to install and configure WordPress locally on a Mac with MAMP, the open-source server/database/scripting language combo that sets the stage for more serious WordPress development. Author Morten Rand-Hendriksen covers the configuration options and usage scenarios to get you started working in WordPress quickly.
WordPress is a web publishing application designed to publish content onto the web. So why would you want to install a web publishing application on your computer so you can access it but no one else can? Well, the answer lies in that question. Having WordPress installed on your computer has a huge benefit both for bloggers, for beginners, and for developers. As a beginner, you need to understand how WordPress works and familiarize yourself with WordPress and all the ins and outs.
By having WordPress installed on your computer, you can experiment it without having to install it on an external host, and you can also get to know the application in a safe environment. Once you know how it works and you are comfortable with it, then you publish it to a host and then you can go live. As a developer, if you want to develop a child theme or a regular theme or a plug-in or some other content for WordPress, you should always do it in a local environment. Because if you didn't have a local environment, you would have to make a change to your file and then push that file onto the web and then onto a web server and then check it and then push another change onto the web server and check it.
But if you have a local environment to work in, you simply make a change to the file, reload your browser, and you see that change immediately. For myself, I have WordPress installed on my computers so that no matter where I am I can always work on WordPress projects without having to rely on an Internet connection. Because let's face it, even though the Internet is pretty much everywhere, you don't always have a connection to the Internet on your computer. But if you want to work with WordPress, you really either need that or you need to have WordPress installed on a computer locally.
Down to brass tacks, WordPress installed on a computer is the number one tool in your WordPress toolkit. And whether you're a beginner or an advanced user, this is something you should have. We've created this core series to give you four different options that you can use to install WordPress either Macs or on PCs, and we go through how to set it up, how to use it, and how to uninstall it. That way you'll have all the tools necessary to be able to run WordPress locally on your computer and develop great things.

Vierpolders Shopping
Landwinkel Klok: Another local produce shop
When I have time I make the tiniest detour to buy fresh fruits and vegetables from the Landwinkel (literally meaning Country Shop).
All the produce is local.
There is also a good selection of frozen beef products. The meat comes from a local farm called Boerderij Assenberg.
Not only great local produce, the prices are not too steep at all. Usually you pay more for organic foods.

Kwekerij Roest: Local produce
A 'kwekerij' is a nursery in Dutch. You can go there all year round and buy nice plants (of which I have little intelligible to say, since I'm no good at plants!).
But this nursery has a twist: they also sell regional and local produce. Which is great fun because I never realised how much really regional produce there is (read on below!).
Once a year there is a Pumkin Fair. All the produces come together at the nursery to show off their products. It's a real country happening with a bit of music, things to eat (wonderful pumkin soup!), things to taste, stalls to browse.
For the occassion there is a special Parking 100m away and a tractor can bring everything you bought right to your car.

Buffalo Bill Ranch State Historical Park, also known as Scout's Rest Ranch, is a living history state park located west of North Platte, Nebraska.
The property includes a home owned by Buffalo Bill, as well as many other historical exhibits. The park can be found along U.S. Route 30 two miles west of North Platte.
It includes a Second Empire–style mansion built in 1886. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
Flood of 2011[edit]
During flooding on the Platte River in the summer of 2011, the site was closed, exhibits moved and berms were built around the buildings. The flooding came close to the compound but was not as severe as expected.[2]

Oh I love the idea of turning the toilet water green, ha!
We are going to have a treasure hunt at a friends place - she's drawing up a map of her yard (very simple that 3 & 4 year old can follow) to collect pieces of the rainbow (wooden stacking Waldorf rainbow blocks..) and at the end making it and finding "treasures.." which are going to be seeds of lavender and pots to paint. We have some little treasures along the way (gold glitter, little sparkly green hats etc)...and we will have brunch with a rainbow salad
The leprechauns don't play any tricks at our house but DD has decided that she will spend time in the yard trying to catch some with her "leprechaun net" (a small, green butterfly net). lol
We will make vegetarian shepherd's pie, cabbage, colcannon and soda bread for dinner and DD and I are going to make shamrock sugar cookies this afternoon. We'll be reading Irish folktales and making Irish flags during school time and, naturally, our whole family is wearing the green.
Mom of two girls.
Same here -- it was so cute watching their excitement when they discovered everything!
Leprechauns don't play any tricks at our house (although DS would love the green toilet water idea -- do you put the dye in the tank or the bowl?).
We're having corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, and soda bread for dinner. I'm just about to make the dough for shamrock cookies so that it can chill for a while before DS gets home from school -- this afternoon the kids can help me make them.
Probably just hiding the whiskey... Damn them!

I love the toilet water idea! What a fun way to turn something green without dying food, love it!
At our house, the kids made a huge trap out of foam blocks, a marble, and some sticky tack with a gold coin as bait. When we woke up in the morning, the trap was messed up and there was a note that said "Ha ha ha, nice try!" and a plate of shamrock cookies. They were excited

FF school levy down for 2013Published 11:14am Tuesday, December 11, 2012
Taxpayers in the Fergus Falls School District should see a slight reduction in property taxes in 2013, finance director Mark Masten reported Monday.
Masten reported that 4.8 percent reduction in the levy for taxes payable for fiscal year 2013-2014, resulting in a $286,012 reduction in taxes.
"The primary reason it's going down is related to construction projects that are already paid off," said Masten. "We don't need the levy funds for certain things that we already got done during construction like asbestos removal or fire safety. Since we had the buildings opened up, we got those things done."
MSHSL meets on section-only play
The Minnesota State High School League met Dec. 5 to talk about plans to move to strictly sectional play in sports across the state.
No decision was made at the meeting, but the talks will be on going.
"There has be no determinate decision on moving to strictly section play," Fergus Falls Athletic Director Gary Schuler said. "These type of talks take time, but I believe that around the state the move to sections is split to about 50/50."

CHAPEL HILL, NC - JANUARY 16: The defense of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets stops John Henson #31 of the North Carolina Tar Heels during their game at the Dean Smith Center on January 16, 2010 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images)
North Carolina coach Roy Williams is still unsure whether junior forward John Henson will be ready for the Tar Heels' opener in the NCAA tournament Friday. Henson sprained his left wrist in a fall during the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament and missed the last two games. He went through about 70 percent of the team's practice Thursday morning in Chapel Hill, then participated in a light workout with his teammates at the Greensboro Coliseum in the afternoon. Trainer Chris Hirth wrapped Henson's wrist and included a protective pad on it just before the workout. Henson said he's improving each day and wants to try to play in top-seeded Tar Heels' game against 16th-seeded Vermont in the Midwest Regional. But Williams says he's ''not convinced'' Henson is ready just yet.

Findings for PPC in Sandy Springs
Sandy Springs Ranks Amongst Least Expensive Markets for Google Adwords in USA
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Sandy Springs was the 271st least expensive city in USA in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of April 2015. Sandy Springs also ranks amongst the least expensive cities in Georgia, ranking as number 6th. In the study, San Buenaventura ranked as the most expensive city in the country, while Manchester ranked as the least expensive city.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 79% Lower in Sandy Springs than Atlanta
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Sandy Springs are 79% lower than in Atlanta. The average price of a click in Sandy Springs is $4.69.
This price differential is expected however, as Atlanta has a larger population than Sandy Springs.
To get a better sense of relative prices, we also compared prices with another similarly sized city, Flint, and found the average price of a click in Sandy Springs was 36% higher than in Flint.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

Originally written on Steelers Depot | Last updated 11/25/12
In a game that featured the Pittsburgh Steelers turning the ball over 8 times it is hard to pinpoint which of them hurt the team the most in their 20-14 loss to Cleveland Browns on Sunday. All of that aside, it certainly doesn't help matters when you hear that one Steelers player admitted after the game that he ran a soft out pattern that helped contribute to one of the three interceptions thrown in the game by quarterback Charlie Batch. Who was that player? It was the newly signed wide receiver Plaxico Burress. Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports via Twitter that Burress admitted Read more [...]

Is there anything more annoying than watching some great athlete excell at everything? Probably so. But still, it's awful. It's like, OK, fine, you're awesome at basketball, but do you have to be able to learn to water ski in two minutes too? Ugh. The worst. Yao spares us of that with his golf performance at a charity event in his native China. Good on you, Yao. Good on you.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens takes place 30 years after the original trilogy, and debuts in theatres on December 18th, 2015.
Another day, another Star Wars rumour. This time, reports are floating around that Pixar, those awesome folk behind some of the best films of the past decade-and-a-half, are working on a Star Wars. Not Episode VII, presumably, but something entirely separate. Count me intrigued and, well fanboyishly optimistic.
Rob Bricken of io9, however, recognizes that it might be more of a leap-of-faith than a full blown rumour. "Anyone who remembers that Disney owns Star Wars, Disney owns Pixar, and Pixar makes good movies, could probably put all the facts together and come out with the same hypothesis," he said. "So let's all pretend it is true, and maybe we'll force Disney to conform reality to our wishes."
Adam Whitehead shares his own concerns about Disney's intentions with the Star Wars Expanded Universe that currently exists in the Star Wars books, videogames, and comic books. "Something that irritates in all of this, "No-one cares about the Star Wars games, books and comics!" stuff is how BS it is," Whitehead said on Twitter. "The Star Wars Expanded Universe-set materials have made about $6 billion. That's more than the theatrical gross of the 6 movies. And about a third of the combined films theatrical gross+home video/DVD/Blu-Ray sales. Still very significant." Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy has sold nearly 20 million copies by itself, which is more than George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire (which is up to five books now), which illuminates just how important the EU is to a lot of fans. However, I wonder, how many of those 20 million were sold to the children and young adults that will become obsessed with the Pixar film and fill their parents' ears for all the associated merchandise?
Star Wars: Episode VII rumours are like crack for the SFF community. We know they're no good for us, we know they'll whisper lies and false promises in our ear, but, dammit, it's just so hard to say no. This latest round of rumours, reported on by The Hollywood Reporter, is chockfull of casting news, including: Smaug, Sherlock and Kahn himself, Benedict Cumberbatch; Chiwetel Ejiofor of 12 Years a Slave fame; and Breaking Bad star Jesse Plemons.
More on those rumours:
Never has a project attracted so much ink about meetings, but such is the passionate interest in Star Wars. Last fall, every few weeks there was a breathless reveal of a meeting, with names such as Benedict Cumberbatch, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael B. Jordan, Jack O'Connell, Alex Pettyfer, Saoirse Ronan and Sullivan Stapleton coming up. And those are only the names that leaked out.
With all the actors being tossed around — including a report this week that Breaking Bad's Jesse Plemons was meeting with director J.J. Abrams about a role — Heat Vision thought it was time to check in on Star Wars in general.
Sources confirm Plemons is on the list to chat with Abrams for Episode VII (and possibly the entire trilogy), with a meeting set to take place this week. But he is only one of a long string of actors on Abrams' meeting list.
Additionally, there is also a rumour that "Abrams and Lucasfilm are now searching for a 20-something female actress who is either of mixed race or black. The rumor is that Obi-Wan Kenobi had a daughter or granddaughter."
Oscar-winning writer Michael Arndt left the project in the fall of 2013, and The Hollywood Reporter says, "According to multiple insiders, the reason for the parting of ways was not due to a timeframe issue, as has been reported, but rather due to a difference of opinion of which characters to emphasize."
Reportedly, Arndt's script involved the children of the Luke, Leia, and Han (whether these characters were based on the existing children from the EU was unclear). "Abrams, however, wanted Episode VII to focus on the classic trio of characters," says Borys Kit of The Hollywood Reporter. "So audiences could have one more chance to enjoy them before a fitting send-off. The new characters, the offspring, will now be in supporting roles, according to these sources, and take center stage in Episode VIII and IX. Some characters have disappeared from the Arndt script and new ones are being added."
Because, you know, it's not like there's precedent that each of the trilogies would feature a new generation of Skywalkers or anything…
Via Entertainment Weekly, George Lucas has confirmed that Star Wars: Episode VII will be released to theatres on December 18th, 2015. EW reports:
Lucasfilm has announced the new date for the debut of the next Star Wars trilogy, and despite some script rewriting that is currently underway, the movie will not be pushed to later in 2016.
Fans can expect to revisit the galaxy far, far away on Dec. 18, 2015.
Also interesting to note is the recent change in the primary writers for the scrip. Replacing Michael Arndt, best known for his work on Little Miss Sunshine (which is a hilarious thought, given the quirky nature and humour of that film) are J.J. Abrams, director of the film, and Lawrence Kasdan, co-writer of The Empire Strikes Back (the best of the trilogy), Return of the Jedi and Raiders of the Lost Ark—that's certainly a resume that Star Wars fans can be excited about. Entertainment Weekly says that this, "development [is] clearly not an ideal one, and it triggered questions about whether the story would be ready in time." This 2015 release date ensures that the production will be given the necessary time it needs to be polished to the high level (*cough cough*) that Star Wars fans expect (though, perhaps, are not always used to receiving).
Pre-production for the film is already underway, with shooting scheduled to being in Spring 2014.
So, how many days to go? *Counts his fingers until he runs out.*
"You can't deny myth. It's too powerful. You have to embrace it."
I didn't come to writing through literature and creative writing courses. I was a singer and then a lawyer before I turned to writing. I had an instinctive sense of what was satisfying, (and really writing is about telling a story you'd like to read), but actually analyzing how you make something engaging and emotionally satisfying is a long process, and you never stop learning. This little essay on myth represents where I am in the journey of learning and refining upon which I've embarked.
So how did this musing about myth and to some degree fairy tales all start? It was because of a movie script and a video game.
I've been writing a movie for Universal Pictures based on the Wild Card books that I co-edit with George R.R. Martin, and there's a father/son situation in the script. My protagonist was a man trying to live up to the legend of a deceased father and this shows up on about page three of the script. The world is filled with images and comments about this father. Ultimately my hero discovers his father's not dead, and then I had to figure out how Frank was going to react emotionally. What would he actually do? Read More »

For those still missing Aaliyah (like us) you'll be thrilled to hear this posthumous track that's been released.
Over the weekend Drake announced the song by tweeting a photo of himself getting 116 tattooed overlaying 416. The latter is apparently Drake's hometown area code, while 116 represents Aaliyah's birthday; January 16th.
'Enough Said' a track that was produced by Noah '40' Shebib and obviously includes a verse from Drake himself, a guy whose obsession (even pre-tattoo) with the late singer has been very well documented.

Rich sound
By Carenmichelle
from Kelowna, BC
Yes, they seem to be a little pricey, but considering how much you pay for cheap headphones nowadays, and I've had many, these are worth it! Terrific sound meets attractive design and to me, it just doesn't get any better than that
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Duplicate memorials
I think I've found duplicate memorials - 1 of which you own. Not sure how to get this remedied and the other person is not allowing messages. Same picture on both. The dates are different on this one but the picture says the Birth is 1838.
Name: Phoeba McManus
Birth: 1839
Death: 1932
Burial: Fairview Baptist Cemetery
Randolph County, Illinois, USA
Created by: Lisa Lawder-Eberhardt

This duplicate does not have the connections to the parents and children.
Thanks. Carin Price

RE: Sidney Parlier
Thank you sooo much for the transfer, Lucy. I'll post his information today. I felt so sad that he died so young. Just a kid, for heavens sake. Since there are 5 soldiers without dates buried in this cemetery, he may not have gotten home at all; he may have just been loaded onto a wagon with the others and brought as close as they were able to bring him, and buried right there. At least they had his name. Thank you again for putting him in the system, Lucy.

Sidney Parlier
Thank you SO MUCH for finding Sidney and photographing his stone, and for creating the memorial for him. I would never have found him, despite that he is less than 40 miles from home. Is it possible to have you transfer him to us so we can link him to his family of 13 siblings? If not, I would like to do a write-up about him that I would like to post to his memorial. Is this cemetery only 40 miles from Tamaroa? I googled it and thats what Rand Atlas said but it looks further, Thank you again Lucy!

James Faris Memorial
I am looking at the grave stone of Jane Faris and wondering why you have listed it as the grave of James Faris. Since I am not there I cannot tell what all the writing is on the bottom of the stone, but Jane's Father was James McAfee.
This is my family, so I am trying to figure out what is on this stone and whether Jane and David Faris actually had any children.
Thank you, Rita McAfee Conley

Hi Lucy,
I was wondering if you knew the parents of William H. Douglas B:1859 D:1936 ? Doing some family tree research and having some trouble figuring this out! Thank You!

Hazel Deppe #67450296
Hi Lucy--Can you confirm that Hazel is buried in the Percy Village Cemetery? You posted a wonderful picture and I just want to make sure that's where the picture was taken. I had another volunteer report that she couldn't find the grave site. b.t.w. Thank you for the photo.

Theron memorials
While documenting graves in Mount Hope, I noted that duplicate memorials have been created for Elbert Theron Couch Sr. (118338855 and 109782511) and for his wife Ova Couch (118339016 and 109782447). The other contributor was Steven Keller and I am also sending him a message.
I noted this while providing additional information to the memorial for Elbert Theron Couch Jr. (115401736).
Thank you,
C Heilig

text: Galaxy Nexus ICS Easter egg located, nothing major, but still Cool Stormy Beach 15 November, 2011 3 Comments I vaguely remember Google having a way with hiding some little oddity in ever build of Android. They were never anything major of course, just more about a hidden image of some kind that could could be activated or located in various manners. This one was located on an international version of the Galaxy Nexus and shows off the cool looking 8bit Andy with an Ice Cream Sandwich. Hold the picture and he gets larger and then an onslaught of them start flying across your screen. It's neat. It looks like it can be located under 'About Phone' and then tapping on a certain bit of info. I can't really tell since it is a bit blurry at first and in another language. Check out the video below to see it in action and a few screens of the device in action as well. Update – Thanks to a tipster on our twitter, we were made aware that tapping on the Android Version is what pulls this little guy up. Via YouTube Stupdude2 I like it! We can call it Nyandroid! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QH2-TGUlwu4
