Stephen Strasburg
State of the Nats: Final week before playoffs
Sep 22, 2014, 1:15 PM EDT
Top storylines: Final stretch – The Nationals returned home on Sunday night after an 11-game road trip and will now finish out the regular season at Nats Park. They begin with three games against the New York Mets before four games in three days against the Miami Marlins. Winners of four straight and eight of…
As October approaches, Strasburg and Nats are peaking
Sep 21, 2014, 5:39 PM EDT
MIAMI — There was a point — honestly, not all that long ago in the grand scheme of things — when Stephen Strasburg's standing within the Nationals' pitching staff was up for debate. And the debate wasn't whether he deserved to be considered the Nats' No. 1 starter. It was whether he deserved to be…
Instant analysis: Nats 2, Marlins 1
Sep 21, 2014, 3:41 PM EDT
GAME IN A NUTSHELL: Playing their 17th consecutive game and wrapping up an 11-game road trip, the Nationals rested several key regulars, including Ryan Zimmerman, Ian Desmond and Jayson Werth. And given Stephen Strasburg's longstanding struggles at Marlins Park, there had to be some concern heading in about this group's odds of winning. But Strasburg…
Game 155: Nats at Marlins
Sep 21, 2014, 11:44 AM EDT
MIAMI — Stephen Strasburg has pitched very well lately — he has a 1.69 ERA, 28 strikeouts and zero walks over his last four starts — and the Nationals would love for him to continue his winning ways this afternoon at Marlins Park (where he owns a 6.90 ERA in six career starts). But Strasburg…
Has Strasburg earned Game 1 start?
Sep 16, 2014, 10:14 AM EDT
ATLANTA — It unfortunately got overshadowed amid the EKG that was the bottom of the ninth inning last night, but it should not be lost altogether: Stephen Strasburg pitched one of the best games of his life to beat the Braves and put the Nationals on the cusp of the NL East title. And given…
After a nailbiter, Nats on the cusp of champagne
Sep 16, 2014, 12:45 AM EDT
ATLANTA — As the ball screamed off B.J. Upton's bat, made a beeline for Ian Desmond and then ricocheted off the shortstop's mitt, everybody inside Turner Field had one or two quick thoughts racing through the mind. Perhaps Wilson Ramos' reaction best summed how anyone affiliated in any way with the Nationals felt at that…

GAME IN A NUTSHELL: The Nationals arrived in Atlanta knowing they were on the verge of the NL East title. All they needed to do was exorcise one last demon: A Braves club that has been in a tailspin for the last month. For those who have watched this team stumble and bumble its way…
Game 149: Nats at Braves
Sep 15, 2014, 3:37 PM EDT
ATLANTA — Hello from Turner Field, where the Nationals hope to be celebrating something special before they leave town late Wednesday night. They'll need to take 2 of 3 from the reeling Braves — as MLB.com's Mark Bowman figured out, Atlanta is only 1/2-game better than Houston since April 29 — to clinch the NL…

Top storylines: Magic number is at 4 – Thanks to a successful weekend in New York for the Nationals and a Texas Rangers' sweep of the Braves, the Nats have a very good chance to clinch the NL East in Atlanta this week. The magic number is at 4, meaning they would secure the division with…
Can the Nats clinch in Atlanta?
Sep 15, 2014, 6:00 AM EDT
It seemed like a long shot at best, clinching the NL East title in Atlanta on the turf of the club that wore last year's division crown and has been a thorn in the side of this franchise for some time. Yet here the Nationals find themselves, opening a 3-game series at Turner Field tonight,…
Nats can't sweep Braves, but still sitting pretty
Sep 10, 2014, 9:15 PM EDT
Say this for Matt Williams: His never-look-back, never-look-ahead mantra has permeated through the entire Nationals clubhouse in his first season as manager. Williams has refused throughout to discuss much of anything involving events or decisions that come on future dates, and his players have picked up on it along the way, never letting themselves get…

GAME IN A NUTSHELL: It's not often the Nationals find themselves with an opportunity to sweep the Braves. They hadn't actually pulled that feat off since 2012, not at home since 2008. They still haven't done it after a fairly lifeless performance this afternoon in the series finale against their division rivals. With Ian Desmond…

Game 144: Braves at Nats
Sep 10, 2014, 12:28 PM EDT
The Nationals have an opportunity today to do something they haven't done in quite some time: sweep the Braves. They haven't done it since May 2012 at Turner Field, when Chien-Ming Wang got the win in relief, Steve Lombardozzi led off and played left field, Rick Ankiel drove in two runs and Jesus Flores was…

GAME IN A NUTSHELL: The Nationals returned home on Friday night to face the Phillies, and in doing so carried over just about everything from their memorable road trip out west. At least at first they did. Stephen Strasburg was brilliant once again, just as he was in his previous outing in Seattle. And Adam LaRoche…
Game 139: Phillies at Nats
Sep 5, 2014, 2:51 PM EDT
After a nine-game road trip that took them through Philly and out to the West Coast, the Nationals finally return home Friday to begin a three-game series against the Phillies at Nats Park. Their final 24 games this month, and this season in fact, are against NL East opponents. Though the Phillies are in last…

Aug 31, 2014, 12:06 AM EDT
GAME IN A NUTSHELL: One night after the Nationals made Felix Hernandez look human, their own marquee starter lived up to the billing. Stephen Strasburg had arguably his best road outing of 2014 with 7 2/3 innings of one-run ball, the only score coming on his final pitch of the night. His final line included eight…
Game 134: Nats at Mariners
Aug 30, 2014, 3:20 PM EDT
Though first pitch is an hour earlier than Friday night's start, Saturday will be another late one for the Nationals. The Nats and Mariners will get started at 9:10 p.m. EDT with Stephen Strasburg (10-10, 3.59) going up against rookie lefty Roenis Elias (9-11, 4.01). Former National Chris Young was originally scheduled to pitch before a late…

Aug 29, 2014, 3:00 PM EDT
One day after reaching a contract extension with their New York-Penn League affiliate, the Nationals announced a new deal with Single-A Hagerstown that will maintain the partnership between both clubs through 2016.

Nats close memorable homestand with wild comeback

You know a team has done something special when two of its most seasoned veterans – in this case Adam LaRoche and Scott Hairston, who have a combined 22 MLB season between them – say they've never seen anything like it. Sure, teams have closed 10-game homestands at 9-1 before. That's rare, but not extraordinary. Five…

[Identification of item], General Thomas S. Jessup, 1840-1860, 90SC17,Library Special Collections and Archives, Kentucky Historical Society, Frankfort.
.1 c.f.
Jessup, a native of Pennsylvania, emigrated to Kentucky circa 1800 and settled in Mason County. After a brief stint as a store clerk in Maysville, Jessup entered the army as a second lieutenant in 1808. Ten years later, he had risen to the rank of brigadier general and service as Quartermaster General. He continued with that rank and position until his death in 1860. His brother, Samuel Jessup, was a member of the Kentucky state Senate.
This group centers around a letter by General Thomas S. Jessup to his brother, Colonel Samuel B. Jessup, dated August 19, 1840. The letter in question concerns a speech by Joseph Rogers Underwood on a Florida appropriation bill. Thomas Jessup, in Washington, D.C., was forwarding a copy of the speech to Samuel in Frankfort for publication in Frankfort and Lexington newspapers. A copy of the speech is no longer with this letter.
The collection also has a 1913 letter written to Elizabeth Tandy of Paducah, from an aunt (identified only as "Annie") in Fort Smith, Arkansas. This letter forwarded the 1840 letter to Tandy, who was a descendant of Samuel Jessup. Tandy's aunt provided some identifying family information in relation to the old letter and discussed social news. Some notes about the provenance of these items are also present.

Transylvania - Romania and Hungary

Download Transylvania Detailed Itinerary
Day 1: Arrive Bucharest
Upon arrival in Bucharest, you are transferred to our hotel. Tonight we will have an orientation meeting followed by dinner.
Day 2: Bucharest Exploring
We begin our morning with a guided city tour of Bucharest, seeing the historical downtown and the Parliament Building, which was designed and nearly completed by the Ceausescu Regime as the seat of political and administrative power in Romania. Constructing the Palace required demolishing much of Bucharest's historic district, including 19 Orthodox Christian churches, six Jewish synagogues, three Protestant churches (plus eight relocated churches), and 30,000 residences. This is the world's second largest building after the Pentagon.
Day 3: To Brasov via Sinaia, Bran Castle
Departing Bucharest, we begin our journey to Brasov, crossing the Carpathian Mountains. This is our point of entry into Transylvania, the land of Magyar, Saxon, Secler, Romanian and Moc Peoples. Enroute, we stop in Sinaia, named after Mount Sinai in Egypt. It is a mountainside town with winding streets and colorful houses. We visit Peles Castle, a former royal residence. Built between 1875 and 1883, the castle contains many architectural styles, 160 rooms, and beautiful terraces. We also stop at Sinaia Monastery.
Day 4: Brasov Sightseeing, Risnov
This morning we explore the downtown core of Brasov, one of the seven main saxon cities. It has a well-preserved downtown square that is surrounded by beautiful buildings. (It is reminiscent of squares found in Prague.) We visit the Black Church, named so by a fire that blackened its walls. Erected in 1476, the Gothic cathedral has a 250-foot high tower and an organ with 4000 pipes. We also visit the first Romanian school with amazing old Slavic manuscripts.
Day 5: Risnov, Viscri, to Odorheiu Secuiesc, Bear Watching
This morning we explore Prejmar, a former Saxon fortified church in a town outside Brasov. This church is exquisite in design and contrast, featuring thick walls with internal passages that were used to defend its inhabitants from attack.
Day 6: Biertan, Sighisoara
Today we will visit more Saxon heritage sites. Our first stop is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Biertan. The Saxons built this fortified church, which houses a magnificent altar made up of 28 panels, in the 15th century. After lunch we drive to Sighisoara (Shassburg) the best-preserved medieval/fortified Saxon town in Europe. Walk up to Citadel Hill along narrow winding streets crowned with a 200-foot clock tower that watches over the main gate. This 14th-century building contains old documents, weapons, coins and glass icons. Atop Citadel Hill, there is a Gothic cathedral with strange stone sculptures on the buttresses. You can also visit the house where Vlad Tepes "Dracula" was born. It is now a pub!
Day 7: Mt. Hargita hikes, Secler-gates, Korond & Enlaka Villages
This morning we drive up to Mt. Hargita, the sacred peak of the local Seclers, via the scenic Ivo-stream Valley. There we have an hour-long hike to the very peak, where we can enjoy the landscape of central Transylvania with long-range views of the Carpathians.
Day 8: Charcoal Makers, Praid Salt Mine, to Gura Humorului via Bicaz Gorge and Lacu Rosu
We begin our day with a visit to see the work of traditional charcoal makers at Kalonda Pass. We have an opportunity to do some shopping in the village of Korond, whose inhabitants are famous for their handicrafts and more than 5000 families make their livelihood from producing ceramics and wooden crafts.
Days 9 - 10: Painted Monasteries of Bucovina
Among the most picturesque treasures of Romania are the Painted Monasteries of Bucovina. Their painted exterior walls are decorated with elaborate 15th and 16th century frescoes featuring portraits of saints and prophets, scenes from the life of Jesus, images of angels and demons, and heaven and hell. Deemed masterpieces of Byzantine art, these churches are one-of-a-kind architectural sites in Europe. Far from being merely wall decorations, the murals represent complete cycles of religious doctrine. The purpose of the frescoes was to make the story of the Bible and the lives of the most important Orthodox saints known to villagers by the use of images. Their outstanding composition, elegant outline and harmonious colors blend perfectly with the surrounding landscape. Some of Romanias most beautiful countryside is to be found in Bucovina, whose rolling green hills nestle villages and monasteries within their valleys. Horses, decked with red-tasseled bridles, travel country lanes, as villagers crowd churchyards in traditional folk dress on Sundays and holidays. Seven of the churches were placed on UNESCO World Heritage list in 1993. The eighth, Sucevita, is awaiting sanction to be added to the list. We have dedicated two days to explore the most stunning examples of painted churches in this area.
Day 11: To Torockoszentgyorgy through Apuseni Mountains
Today we have a long day of driving to reach Torockoszentgyorgy, secluded behind the magnificent rock of the easter Apuseni Mountains, which borders the western side of Transylvania. Our journey will take us through beautiful mountain scenery as we cross the Eastern Carpathian arch and through central Transylvania, passing the Borgo and Mestecanis Passes. We continue our journey through a series of significant towns that were once an important part of medieval Transylvania. We arrive Torockoszetgyorgy in the late afternoon!
Day 12: Rimetea Village Museum, Torda Gorge Hike
The whole morning is free to enjoy the beautiful setting of our lovely hotel. Enjoy a stroll through the village, a walk in the nearby meadows or enjoy a coffee with a nice book in the terrace. The choice is yours!
Day 13: Torockoszentgyorgy castle hike, Moc Villages
This morning, we explore the XIII century castle ruins which overlooks our village, Torockoszentgyorgy. Our hike takes us through the gorgeous rural countryside. The view from the abandoned castle is simply breathtaking.
Day 14: Sincrau Village, Oradea. Arrival in Hungary
After our morning at leisure, we make our way to the Hungarian border. Enroute we visit a Calvinistic church of the Magyar Sincrau (Kalotaszentkiraly) Village. This is one of the foremost, original ethnic villages of Western Transylvania, famous for its folk and native culture. Enjoy the hospitality of the locals with their traditional costumes, very special local dishes, as well as the opportunity to shop for some local handmade painted pitchers, woodcarvings and embroideries. We cross the Bucea Pass, our exit point of Transylvania, as we descend to Oradea (Nagyvarad) to visit one of the most gorgeous baroque churches in all of Central Europe, and the burial place of the sacred Hungarian King, St. Ladislaus.
Day 15: Hortobagy National Park, Godollo Royal Palace
After breakfast we will visit a local animal farm with many endemic domestic animals before we travel into the Pusta. The Pusta is a wide-open flat area with unique vegetation. In terms of flora, the Pusta is Asiatic and is known as a small piece of Asia inside Europe. Hortobagy National Park is a World Heritage Site that preserves the unique natural and cultural treasures of this remote part of Europe. Here we will see the special curly-haired and "cholesterol-free" mangalica pigs, strange spiral-horned sheep, the enormous Hungarian Gray Cattle, Water Buffalo and many special house fowls and pigeons. After the animal farm, we travel by cart into the open plains, where we will be introduced to the life of the local herdsmen and horse riders as we visit several herds of semi-wild kept animals. After lunch, we continue to travel westward to see the former royal palace of Godollo. Godollo was a palace of Emperor Franz Joseph, King Charles IV (the last Hungarian King), and Nicholaus Horthy, regent of Hungary between the two world wars. Partially restored over the last two years, the building and garden provide a glimpse into the Austro-Hungarian Empire's regal past, highlighting the life of the famous "Sissi", wife of Emperor Franz Joseph. After our visit, we continue to Lake Balaton, Hungary's largest lake.
Day 16: Lake Balaton: Extinct Volcano of St. Gheorghe Hill
During the next two days, we visit the most important sites of Lake Balaton. Known as the "Hungarian Sea" - a 77 km long lake in the centre of Transdanubia with its opalescent, yellow-green, silky-smooth water, which is one of the country's most precious natural resources and most visited resort, surrounded with small volcanic peaks and wonderful wineries. With a surface area of 600 km2 it is Central Europe's largest lake. Even from a distance, it is not easy to explain the magic of Lake Balaton. This gentle lake in the centre of Europe has no palm-fringed shores, there is no backdrop of soaring mountain heights, nor is it associated with prehistoric legends. Despite this, those who come for the first time are surprised to find that in the microcosm of Lake Balaton, every day brings its own minor miracle. One thing is certain: people return from Lake Balaton cheerful, rested and full of energy.
Day 17: Lovasbereny Castle, Alcsut Arboretum, Kamandul Hermitage
Today, we make our way back to Budapest via beautiful rolling hills to enjoy the area of the Vertes Mountains. We visit the Lovasbereny Castle, a ruined and half-abandoned mansion of a local aristocratic family who shared a fate similar to other such properties during the Communist-era. Enroute, we stop on a hilltop to enjoy the view of the second greatest lake of Hungary, called Lake Velence... a grand vista. We then enjoy a guided tour through the largest arboretum of the country at Alcsut village, part of the Danube-Ipoly National Park. Here we have an opportunity to see many of the 540 different tree and bush species displayed in the landscaped park and learn the special history of the place. It was a garden of a former aristocratic palace. We also have a guided tour at the Kamandul Hermitage site of Majk, an extraordinary assemblage of buildings. The Kamandul Order was established in 1009 in Italy, and the monks were allowed to speak to each other only twice a year. They lived at this peaceful spot from 1733-1770, when it was converted into a hunting lodge of the famous Esterhazy Family.
Day 18: Budapest Sightseeing, Citadel
The broad Danube River runs through the middle of this stunning metropolis, dividing hilly Buda from the Pest plain, with nine beautiful old bridges and romantic islands. Today, we explore Budapest by foot and by bus. First, we stroll through the Buda Castle District, a World Heritage Site that includes Mathyas Church, the Royal Palace, and the viewpoint at Fishermen's Bastion. Later we cross the Danube and drive along Andrassy Street (a World Heritage Site) with a chance to see the highlights including the Opera House. We visit Hero's Square and the Parliament building, which are ranked as one of the most beautiful in the world. With 691 rooms, this neo-Gothic palace stretches 880 feet (268 meters) along the embankment of the Danube River. We also visit the Basilica, the greatest of the Hungarian churches. After dinner we drive up the Citadel,(Gellert Hill) to enjoy the best panorama views of Budapest. It is easy to see why Budapest is known as one of the most romantic cities in the world!
Day 19: Visegrad, Danube Bend, Szentendre
Today, we travel north from Budapest to the very center of the Danube Bend, visiting the Royal Palace of Visegrad City. Completed in 1330, Visegrad was the largest building ensembles in medieval Hungary and was declared as the capital in the 14th century. "From Visegrad, from an earthly paradise" - thus wrote an ambassador of the Pope, guest of King Matthias (1458-1490), and a person well used to glitter and pomp. We travel to the Serbian City of Szentendre to explore this legendary old museum town. With its winding streets, church towers and colorful houses, Szentendre is probably the Danube Bend's most visited tourist centre and is a fascinating place to explore. Tonight, we enjoy our Farewell Dinner.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
I used to play this game with my best friend Nabasta all the time. It's one of the only games in which he was better than me XD. I wasn't all that good, but I enjoyed it through his exploits.

Bman The Indian
2013 was my first burn. Those who know me well probably figured I was going because of a midlife crisis. An event like this is so out of character for me. Perhaps they would be correct. Regardless I needed something to shake me. Burning Man shook me to my core in many ways.
Like many "virgin burners", I found myself overwhelmed. My camp mates were very gracious and patient with me. Because of them I was able to explore and experience so much that I never would have. I was stretched both personally and professionally as a photographer. The one thing that left a strong impression on me was the concept of gifting. It blew me away to experience all sorts of gifting, both material and intangible gifts. It is a practice I want to make part of my daily life.
But as great as this was, there was one "negative" experience that threatened to overshadow my memories of the week. One experience that left me feeling confused and angry enough to forget about the beauty that I experienced. (more…)
Dedicated to Bernie
Dedicated to Bernie
I rode out to the temple to honor my dad, the big, loud, brilliant, frustrating, handsome drunk who had died of kidney failure earlier in the year, begging me for a drink from his deathbed. I looked forward to journaling there, connecting with his memory and my complicated love for him. But once I entered the sacred space, everyone, EVERYONE, was on my nerves. People were gabbing and laughing and ogling and dancing, ugh, is that guy hitting on me?? While I am trying to mourn? Fuck you and your beribboned dick too. I was repulsed.
After moving around the building, more uncomfortable and resentful in each new spot than the last, I finally fled, hopping on my bike and riding furiously to the very edge of the Playa, where an unprepossessing plastic fence stopped my flight yet offered no shelter. There, in the dust, I sat, anguish rushing through me, no way to go forward, no way to go back. How could I have treated my father so badly? How come it took me so long to find peace with him for who he was and not who I wanted him to be? How was I ever going to cope with the feelings of guilt and shame and loss, myself newly-sober and vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. I knew behind me lay the glitter of Burning Man, that psychedelic carnival, with every drink and drug I could imagine waiting for me, for free, all I could handle, more than I could handle. I also knew all-too-well where that path would lead. Alcoholics like me don't get sober unless our ass has been kicked soundly, and profoundly, by our addiction. There was no going back there.
And yet this new path, one that did not include numbing myself, seemed impossible to tread as well. My only option was crawling into those nearby dead denuded hills and dying, alone. The pain was just too great. I wanted, needed, to disappear. In this nadir I cried out to that god, goddess, I don't understand but had surrendered to, in order to live, in order to let live. You have got to show me it's going to be ok. Right now. You have got to. Now. It wasn't a prayer as much as a command.
"Hey are you all right?" All at once a man pulled up behind me, out of nowhere, in the middle of, well, nowhere. Oh jeez god no not this, this is not what I meant! I tried to brush off the intruder, Mister Nobody From Nowhere, an average, pudgy, normally dressed, non-descript unfabulous white guy with nothing—nothing—to offer me. As if we were at a Starbucks in West L.A. and not alone in the middle of the desert, I replied curtly, making it clear he needed to go away now. "Yes," I said, "I'm fine. I'm just grieving my father. It's ok to grieve." I added the last part, knowing that this buffoon could not possibly understand the importance of processing feelings. By asserting my authority on the grief process to explain my, um, miserable condition, I intended to dismiss him post haste, send him back where he came from, cloaked in the ignorance that so clearly enshrouded him.
But he didn't take the hint. "Oh man," he said, dropping off of his bike and kneeling down beside me. I cringed at this human contact, this violation of isolation. "That's not ok. How was your relationship?" "Well, it was good," I said honestly, "but only for the last 11 years." Now he would know I was an unworthy daughter. I waited for his condemnation. But to my shock he replied, "Eleven years is a long time. I have a friend whose mom just died and she didn't even know it. They'd been estranged for a long time." Relief and pity flooded through me. It hadn't been like that for me and dad, not at all. We had shared his final stage of life together. And this unlovely nosy busybody was right. Eleven years was a long time.
"How about you?" I asked, suddenly aware of another human being's presence. His demeanor quickly changed. Shoulders sagging he told me it was his first Burn and he was having a miserable experience. The woman he'd come with had left early and he was all alone. Alone at Burning Man: not a great place to be. I understood. "Let me give you a hug," I said, and stood to embrace the man who'd saved my life.
"Ahhh," he said as our bodies parted. "That was what I have been looking for all week." And together we two humans pedaled slowly back to Black Rock City.
Such a warm love when the sun sets. It falls behind the mountain and the city echoes. The werewolves of the BRC are beginning to Awake. Such brilliant wonder as the city turns on.
I remember some art was burning on the open playa as it got dark, so I jumped on the back of my truck, to be joined by 2 fellow adventurers. Talks of what Burning Man is becoming was amongst that interval. "The future is in the regionals," was said. I said we are all responsible and cannot let the BRC fall to the wayside. But there is much more to that conversation. Not important to the night ahead.
The magic beckoned us… (more…)
A couple years ago, some camp mates and I decided to show up a week before the festival began and volunteer to help build the city. We arrived at the barren Black Rock desert with few city installations in place and even fewer landmarks. The man wasn't even up yet. News quickly reached us of how a bad water barrel had taken out a majority of DPW and the city was desperately short handed. We were asked to help build First camp and gladly abided. After a long, cloudless week of work, along with meeting tons of great people, getting fed in the commissary, and watching the city grow and take shape before our eyes, we had set up First Camp(the camp site/HQ of various department heads that run the city). On our final workday we enjoyed sunset cocktails in the 2-story Media Mecca, giving us a nice view of the endless river of headlights now approaching the city. (more…)
Wednesday afternoon, I was exhausted from dancing at the District all day. I took a nap and when I woke up, my campmates begged me to join them at a show with one of their favorite DJs. I followed them on my bike, but quickly got lost in the crowd. I turned around and headed back to camp thinking I would just go back to sleep.
On my way back, I passed a big dance party. I was tired, but I had one of those, "You're at Burning Man, what the hell are you doing trying to go to sleep?" kind of moments. So I parked my bike, took off my tank top and headed into the crowd. I'm not exactly shy, but I don't typically enjoy going to parties by myself… I felt impelled to jump in. (more…)
On Wednesday night of 2006, our crew threw a huge all-night dance celebration – some 8000 people under the huge Conexus Cathedral we had just finished building on Tuesday, and lighting that day.
The next day, I'm out re-burying some lighting and power lines that had got kicked up by dancing feet. I take a break for water and a stretch, and here's this beefy dude at the other end of the trench, using his bare hands to clear and rebury the cables. He nods at me, and keeps working towards me. He's built like a linebacker, and doesn't look much over 20.
After 15 minutes or so we meet in the middle, finish up, find some shade, and I offer him a beer and a nod in thanks. Words didn't seem necessary. (more…)
We were camped this year with a couple friends of ours from Canada, and other friends from Cali (as we are), one being a veteran Ranger. One afternoon, we were sitting around camp (Camp Yonder and the Ottoman Empire -8:13 & H-) enjoying some blue margaritas, and someone brought up the fact of how easily some of us are distracted in life… something as simple as hearing someone yell "Hey Look, a ball…!!" we all had good laughs, and pointed fingers at who would run after the ball if we ever saw one, hypothetically, of course… (more…)

37 year old man | Chandler, AZ, USA | Seeking women 21-40 within 50 miles
Active within 24 hours
Searching for my better half
Let me start by introducing myself..... Im Steve from Illinois. I grew up in a small town in Southern Illinois. I definitely have midwestern values and a little bit of country in me. Im far from being a farmer or cowboy but I love some country music. I have been in Arizona for 8 years and it has flown by. I enjoy staying active, going to the gym, hiking, running, snowboarding, and playing sports. I love attending live sporting events and going to concerts as often as I can. I would like to find the kind of relationship that my grandparents had. They knew it from the moment they met and were happily married for 49 years. Thats part of the reason Im so selective when it comes to women:) I want someone that Im attracted to but that person over time becomes better looking to me each day, month and year. I work for myself so it allows me plenty of free time to spend with someone and travel as often as I can :) Looking for someone who knows what they want. Someone who is personable, outgoing, humorous, and active. Looking for someone who is practical and generally happy and doesn't get worked up too easily, who loves eating good food, is optimistic, and enjoys the finer things in life (music, food, events being the main ones). Someone who enjoys working out and enjoying the great out doors.Lately I've realized that having adventures with someone is much more thrilling than having them all alone. Also, you have a sense of humor and love practical jokes! So if you can relate to any of the above, and if you share a few qualities with me, then contact me. Looking forward to hearing from you! Why am I here? Between my career and hobbies I don't find much free time to meet new people outside of my current circle of friends. Besides Im not a bar or nightclub person.
Cooking , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Performing arts , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports

Dueling Headlines, religious freedom edition
**Written by Doug Powers
It's been a while since we've had some Dueling Headlines, but this week the feature returns. The first headline is from today:
That story duels this one:
Hobby Lobby's defense to the Obama administration for not wanting to pay for abortifacients should be "if one child's life can be saved we must take these actions." How could the White House argue with that?
Here's a bonus story to help us celebrate Religious Freedom Day:
Join us again next time for another exciting mixed message-packed episode of **Dueling Headlines!

Toni Lyn Miller, of Sinking Spring, is charged with five counts of forgery, four counts of criminal attempt at theft by deception and one count of theft by deception, police said.
Police said they recovered two counterfeit $100 bills, and Miller would select an inexpensive item to get a large amount of change.

In 1986, the Hopewell Valley Historical Society was the fortunate recipient of seven hundred 4" x 5" glass-plate negatives taken by Mr. George H. Frisbie. These images capture Pennington—its people, places, and changes—between 1890 and 1915, the first 25 years of Pennington Borough as an incorporated town. The Silva Gallery is proud to host the first public exhibition of this collection. Included in the show are vintage photographs of our beloved Wesley Alumni House and a rare action shot of Pennington Seminary football. All are warmly invited to a special reception on April 1, 2015. This reception will be the first event of many that will mark the 125th Anniversary of Pennington Borough's incorporation.

Richard and Kyle Petty remember their late mother and wife Lynda.
Network's approach 'reinvigorates' him as son Adam's entry into the sport did Kyle Petty has joined the race-day broadcast team for NBC Sports Group, the organization announced Thursday, and is the latest figure to join the network's ever-growing cast of NASCAR experts in preparation for the 2015 season and beyond. Petty will work alongside Krista Voda, whose hiring was announced in late October, as an analyst on pre- and post-race shows surrounding NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and NASCAR XFINITY Series coverage. He will also remain a regular contributor to "NASCAR America" on NBCSN. " Kyle Petty brings a lifetime of experience to our team that is unmatched," said Sam Flood, executive producer, NBC Sports and NBCSN. "As a driver, team owner, philanthropist and multigenerational observer of the sport, he has seen it all, and has great perspectives across NASCAR's full spectrum." Petty joins a group that already includes race announcer Rick Allen and on-air analysts Jeff Burton and Steve Letarte, along with reporters Marty Snider, Kelli Stavast, Mike Massaro and Dave Burns. The son of Richard Petty and grandson of Lee Petty , both NASCAR Hall of Famers, Kyle grew up entrenched in the sport and made 829 starts in NASCAR's premier series. A guest on "The Morning Drive" on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio when the news was released, Petty joked, "Breaking news after I've been on "NASCAR America" on NBC for 23 weeks this year. Breaking news, I have a job next year." From his work on the nightly NBCSN show, Petty said the staff has "reinvigorated" him. He compared the network's fresh-eyed return to NASCAR to his late son's approach to racing when Adam became a national series competitor. "…when Adam came along, it was like I was seeing these race tracks for the first time because he was so excited," Petty said. "Even though he had been around the sport, he hadn't driven, and he was so excited. "(He would) tell me what the race track felt like or tell me what was going on at the race track or what he learned today at the race track. And I get that same feeling from these people at NBC. "They're just excited to be at the race track, and they're excited to be a part of the sport." FOX and NBC have exclusive NASCAR broadcasting rights, beginning next year. NBC will broadcast the final 20 Sprint Cup Series races, final 19 NASCAR XFINITY Series events, select NASCAR Regional & Touring Series events and other live content, beginning next year.

NBC Sports analysts give thoughts on 2014 Chase, what we'll see in 2015 Play: NASCAR Fantasy Live " Related: Burton, Letarte explain Jeff Gordon's major decision By now, it's safe to say that last season's revamped Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup and the drama surrounding its race action immediately left us speechless, but eventually kept us talking. With NBC Sports' NASCAR tenure set to resume this season after nine years away from the sport, its all-star crew of Jeff Burton, Dale Jarrett, Steve Letarte and Kyle Petty gave their thoughts last week at Charlotte Motor Speedway Media Tour presented by Technocom on the new format -- what they enjoyed and what we're bound to see in 2015. According to these NASCAR heavyweights, it sounds like we're going to see even more intense action than last year, as hard as that is to imagine. Jeff Burton, 21-time Sprint Cup Series winner "I've always believed that I was giving 100 percent. That no matter where I was in points, no matter what was going on, that I brought everything that I could bring. This points structure made you bring more. And it made the teams find a way to be better. And I think in our sport, that's what this is all about. It's about being better. You're good in April? Hey, that's great. But if you're not good enough in August and September, it ain't good enough. "The idea that you have to improve throughout the whole year -- that if you win a race, you're in -- but points still matter. I think all of that is really cool. I would hate it if points didn't matter. I know that everybody wanted the guy that won the most races and the right races to be the champion, but points should still matter. It's always been a big part of this sport and it still currently is today. So the fact that points matter, the fact that winning covers up all other mistakes and the fact that you have to be right at the right time; that's what a crunch moment is all about. "As a fan of all kinds of sports, the reason I like the Super Bowl is because if you don't win, you lose. You go home. … And that's the mentality that has been brought to in racing today. You have to win. Or you have to compete at an exceptionally high level or you're not going to win a championship; you're not going to get done what you need to get done. I like the fact that it's made it harder for the teams, it's made it more intense for the teams. The more intense and the more stressful it is for the competitors, the more fun it is to watch. And this points structure has been without a doubt all those things." Dale Jarrett, NASCAR Hall of Famer "Jeff put it better than I think I've ever heard it put it before. Everything that he's saying there, he was spot-on with that. I think if you look back over the years, no matter how long we've been around this, whenever you have made things more difficult for the drivers, it's more entertaining for the fans and I think that's exactly what this did. "Last year at (Media Tour), we heard a lot of drivers … say 'Look, I race as hard as I can every week, I can't do anymore to try to win than what I do.' I understand that. I know the mentality. We've been there. We've done that. But, I think it proved out that if there is something different, just as Jeff was pointing out, you have to dig down and find another way to make yourself a part of that. " Kyle Busch said something (last week) about his issue at Talladega and what happened to him. That was very unfortunate, because he had done everything right to get himself moved on. He said, 'You know, if I'd got the job done a week before, and won that race, Talladega wouldn't have mattered.' So they've got a different mentality. "There's no perfect system out there, because everybody is not going to agree with it, but my gosh, we came pretty close. That was as exciting a 10-race schedule as I've ever seen in this sport." Steve Letarte, 15-time Sprint Cup Series-winning crew chief "I think that's going to be one of the biggest stories, is how are teams going to adapt? I was only able to take part in one (season) of this new Chase format and I know we learned a lot. It was a great season with a little bit of a letdown in the second round, but there were a lot of teams that have that same feeling. It's going to be an interesting take on 'How can I approach these 10 races differently? Is there a different way that maybe my team should've moved through? What crew chiefs are going to have a different approach? What drivers are going to put different weights on different race tracks?' "You have to be at Homestead. I think that's what's unique about this playoff style. No matter how good of a year you've had, if you slip up, you can overcome with a win, but that's the only way you're going to overcome. And these short, three-race segments you really have to win or have a great three races to move forward. I think we saw some big hitters, some championship favorites last year get knocked out as the playoffs went on and I think that's a big difference from in the years past where you maybe always had a chance. This year, your chances, your book can be closed. Your year can be over. And then we go to Homestead and I don't think we could've asked for a better race at Homestead last year. I don't think that's going to be a rarity. "I think when it's all on the line, the four teams that have a chance are probably always going to find that next level to step up and put on a great race." Kyle Petty , eight-time Sprint Cup Series winner "Being at the race track and being down there with it. … Dale's been in a championship chase, I was with my father (Richard Petty ) in the late 70s and you get down and it's two guys working for a championship and the intensity in those two teams was always overwhelming. When The King and Darrell (Waltrip) went at it, man, it was crazy that year. I didn't know what was going to happen that year and I was just a kid. But the intensity went to a different place and Darrell and The King went to a different place, as far as what they did on the race track and how they performed on the race track. Great drivers and great teams always find a way to step up. "What we saw in the Chase was a lot of teams find that ability to step up. Step up in that first round; step up in that second round. The intensity just got greater and greater and greater. To be a part of that and to be able to try to convey to the race fans at home exactly what Dale Jr. was feeling or Steve Letarte felt sitting on that pit box last year or what Dale Jarrett felt in the car when he was racing for the championship going into that last race and the butterflies and how he felt. I think that's what this Chase brings and that's what we can bring." FULL SERIES COVERAGE • Latest news • Standings • Schedule

While Victory Lane was just out of grasp for the 22-year-old, his overall numbers were comparable to some of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. Take a look below to see how Larson compares to Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon and Richard Petty in their rookie years, and then use the second graphic to see how those three NASCAR legends performed in their second year -- perhaps a comp that Larson can target in 2015.

heej > nice to see the process shot's off your work.
i can learn a lot from it.
and that last one did you handled well. but one question do you allway's start with some skeleton's first if you draw a gesture ?
Hide this ad by registering as a memberDecember 27th, 2006 #28
Thanks Oma,
No, I don't usually start with a skeleton...Years ago when I had a real life drawing course in college I remember doing it as one of our exercises. Also I was given a paintover in the critique thread with a skeleton to show the anatomy issues on my painting. So I thought I would go back to that. I think it helped me a lot with my proportions and form.
It was also very helpful with this reference pic to understand how her ribs were showing and the contours of her hips as well as the alignment of her head. Even though I had a reference pic that showed me everything I needed to see, drawing a skeleton within the form helped force my hand to stick to what I was seeing.
December 29th, 2006 #29
I think I have finished this latest nude study. Here I have added color, not sampling from my reference but just using my own eye. I used several layers, colorizing my greyscale image and using it as a multiply layer then going in underneath and adding cool and warm areas to the shadows.
I am very happy with the results but at the same time uncomfortable because it appears so realistic to me. It's beyond me why that makes me uncomfortable.
December 31st, 2006 #30
Improvement on that last peice is fantastic. Definately go for that style when drawing from your head. Use skeletons/simplified shapes to knock in accurate values and proportions like that in drawings from your imagination and you're set. Keep doing what you're doing if you want photorealism. If you want realism you'll have to draw from life a lot more and figure out how to set a focus, as well as show balance and energy. The stuff i was going to say has already been voiced very well by AztcFireFlower, Jeri, and Kronos, so listen to them well! Keep it up, i can't wait to see your progress.
January 2nd, 2007 #31
Thank you Fishspawn!
Yup I learned a lot going back to my anatomy studies and less relying on my own mind for pin-up style figures. I am just a bit put off by being a copy machine, but thats my own demon to face. More anatomy to come!
But first I am going back to my dragon painting. I started this after reading the dragon thread...then found out I couldn't post to the dragon thread, I guess its closed. So its going here instead. These are the several stages of progress I have gone through so far, still a long way to go to final.
January 2nd, 2007 #32
Another update on my dragon painting..."greeting the sun". Next is enlarging it and adding detail to the dragon which is still very plain.
January 2nd, 2007 #33
Hey! I love the last dragon on here!
A couple of the ladies are a bit off proportion wise.
But everything looks great!
Keep it up!
Great imagination too!

January 4th, 2007 #36
hey man, incredible improvements! well done indeed! the nude is rendered very well but you say you're feeling uncomfortable? i don't know, but is it perhaps because you want to get a more painterly look? i think working on that would be really cool. its kindof a hard thing to work on, but try and see if you can get lots of information down with few gestural marks rather than the intense rendering you've been doing, not that there is anything wrong at all with what you've been doing, its great, but variety is NICE!

Well done.
You have a nice style of your own. There's a lot of great art here.Well Done. ^_^
Going through them, I've noticed something. The dedatils seem kinda flat in a way. Don't get me wrong. It's clear that the images have depth, but small suttle details are missing.
Look at them closely and you'll see that some have no wrinkles or creases where there should be. Take yur frong drawing/coloring. There are bends in her pose, but at those joints the skin should have a few small winkles. remember, every creature has fat in it. even skinny ones like frogs.
Even your cool thumbnail painting looks a little odd without winkles in her bathing suit or skin.
You don't always have to draw these details in your art. Usurally shading/or coloring can add these little details.
As I said earlier, Very nice job. can't wait to see more.

Anubis713 - Thank you! I am really liking where this dragon is going as well, I should have a new update of it soon.
Cold - Thank you! I think I surprised myself with that piece. I was going to stop at the greyscale version in the previous post but I knuckled under and took it the rest of the way.
Saturniaus - Thank you! That was one of my first digital painting pieces and I learned a lot about what not to do on it...hehe.
Kronos - Glad you like it too! I would love to get a more painterly look to my work...what made me uncomfortable about this piece was just feeling like a copy machine. I was very focused throughout the work and happy with being able to maintain that state but the end result feels dry, though it was what I was aiming for. All reasons why I want to improve my digital painting abilities and that study gave me a nice kick in the pants.
SEspider - Thanks! I do need to work on clothing and wrinkles, I believe I will tackle a clothed figure for my next study.
Thanks everyone for checking out my sketchbook! I am thrilled! I just finished work on this week's COW...The final version is posted on the COW #72 thread, here I am posting a couple of the progressions I took:

the furniture out, especially since she has "grown accustomed to consider herself an expert in Gregor's affairs…" (p. 142). It seems as if the conflict is centered on the Samsa women wanting to be the 'mother figure' or 'caretaker' of Gregor. Due to the fact that Gregor's mother was so "ill at ease" (p.142) being in his bedroom, the conflict is quickly settled as Mrs. Samsa quietly gives in and starts helping Grete move the chest and other pieces of furniture out of Gregor's bedroom.
Another situation involving external conflict occurs between Gregor and Grete. Kafka writes that "...she was so startled that without being able to help it she slammed the door shut again. But as if regretting her behavior she opened the door again immediately..." (p. 134). This shows that Grete likely had to fight off some internal conflicts within herself before being able to face the sight of her newly transformed brother. Grete and Gregor were initially fighting about the food Grete was ...

Motor vehicle crash fatalities in Arizona down slightly in 2012
PHOENIX � An analysis of the Arizona Department of Transportation's 2012 Arizona Crash Facts report shows 823 people died in vehicle crashes on Arizona's roadways last year, compared to 827 fatalities in 2011, while motorcycle-related deaths increased by 5.3 percent.
"These figures should remind all of us to make a pledge to resist distractions and concentrate on safe driving," said ADOT Director John Halikowski. "One area sure to receive even more attention in the coming year is motorcycle safety."
Halikowski urged motorcyclists to consider safety-training courses and also reminded drivers to be more aware of motorcyclists on the road.
Other figures from the report include:
� There were more than 103,176 total crashes recorded in 2012 (down 0.58 percent compared to 103,774 crashes in 2011)
� One person was killed in a motor vehicle-related crash every 10.65 hours
� Crashes with injuries accounted for 32 percent of all crashes, while 67 percent of all crashes were listed as "property damage only"
� Pedestrian fatalities decreased by 14 percent (132 deaths in 2012 compared to 154 in 2011)
� 72.5 percent of all crashes occurred during daylight hours (6 a.m. to 6 p.m.)
� Alcohol-related fatalities decreased by 2 percent (281 deaths in 2012 compared to 287 in 2011)
"Our law enforcement agencies around the state worked even harder last year to take impaired drivers off the road," said Alberto Gutier, director of the Governor's Office of Highway Safety.
Gutier also said that they will not rest until all tragedies caused by drivers who refuse to follow Arizona's stricter driving laws are eliminated.
Motor vehicle crashes also created economic losses approaching $3 billion in Arizona last year. Economic losses tied to fatalities, including wage and productivity losses, totaled $1.2 billion, while losses from property damage added up to more than $640 million.
The Governor's Office of Highway Safety advises drivers to do the right things: buckle up, obey speed limits, be well-rested while driving, and eliminate distractions such as talking or texting while driving.
