What can I say about my daughter Emily? She is just amazing. Not only is she a wonderful, loving, and thoughtful daughter and sister, she is a very talented artist! She's been drawing for a couple of years. She's 15 years old now.
She was excited to get started on this commissioned piece for my Aunt Eula. It's looks gorgeous so far!

thank you fro the responses so far.
A G1/G2 + 21mm + viewfinder is probably going to be cheaper than the M equivalent. However, I'm not sure if the difference is really that much to warrant another mount.
If I were attracted to the G because of the camera, then there would be more sense in my decision. My only reason for turning G is for the sake of economy but I think spending a bit more is going to give me more mileage in the long run.
Quick question. Anyone have a size comparson between these two lenses? Or the size of the G1/G2 + 21mm f2.8 + hood compared to an M + 21mm f2.8 + hood. The 21mm G lens look smaller than the ZM lens. This matters to me, but not that much.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 11/8/12
Harmon Rankings: QB , RB , WR , TE/DEF/K One of the wide receiver slots on the "2012 All-Name Team" may have been filled on Thursday night. Cecil Shorts III stole some of the spotlight from Andrew Luck, at least in the fantasy realm, with his six-reception, 105-yard effort against the Colts. Shorts registered an early 52-yard reception and eventually caught a touchdown pass from Chad Henne, who was on in relief for the injured Blaine Gabbert. I know that we keep watching Justin Blackmon and waiting for his breakthrough, but he's third on the list right now behind Shorts III and offseason acquisition Laurent Robinson. We'll chronicle this squad more as we wrap up Week 10, but let's stay focused on the task at hand. It's time for another round of "Lineup Calls," chronicling the good, bad and ugly matchups for wide receivers. I'll give you the opening shot.

Side-by-side multitasking -- long available on Android -- comes to the iPad with iOS 9.
Apple's updated mobile operating system, iOS 9, gives iPads a handful of new features including split-screen viewing.
The sought-after feature comes with the new iOS 9, though simultaneous side-by-side use of apps will only be available for the iPad 2.
This Mac app lets you save the size and position of your windows so you can better juggle all of your open apps.
Constantly switching from one app to another is for amateurs. The Note 4 gives you the ultimate built-in productivity tool.
Boost your Mac's performance and reclaim hard-drive space with this handful of tips.
Apple announces the latest revision of its popular mobile operating system, the iOS 9 with smarter Siri, public transit in Maps, improved CarPlay, iPad split-screen multitasking and many more features, improvements.
The feature is reportedly destined for iOS 8 but won't be shown at next week's WWDC, says a New York Times tech reporter.
A new music-streaming service, multitasking for the iPad, straight talking with Siri and a host of other software developments debuted at Apple's annual developer funfest.
The enormous touch-screen monitors meant to replace entire conference room setups may put you back the price of an entry-level sedan. But that's cheap, Microsoft says.

I'm building an application that analyzes Outlook email messages, stores the analyzed information, and later allows the user to open messages meeting certain criteria.
I expected that I would extract the Message-ID from each email, store this in my database, and then ask Outlook to open up a message by providing it with the Message-ID at a later point. However, it would seem that I'm missing something.
Via the Outlook interop APIs, I can get an EntryID, but as far as I can tell, an EntryID is only guaranteed to be stable within a given folder (or maybe a given store). If a message is moved to a different folder, the EntryID may change. Additionally, the APIs require that the StoreID is provided when looking up a message by EntryID. Again, if a message is moved between stores, that information will presumably be invalid.
I've seen plenty of Office-related products that seem to do something like what I've described above. How can I do an efficient look-up of a message that is accessible to Outlook, regardless of stores etc.?
Currently, my back-up plan is to store EntryID and StoreID information for each Message-ID that I scan, and then try all the various EntryID / StoreID combos that I've recorded for a given MessageID until one is successful. But this seems like work that Outlook should already know how to accomplish for me.

Remember Me
SXSW :: 03.15.08 :: Austin, TX
For many, Saturday is the last real day of SXSW. All the walking, all the beer, all the sun and ALL THE MUSIC really starts to take a toll, and the only way to push through is to go see more live music! Lucky for us, we live on that shit!
Our number two slot is a shared affair. Going down at the JamBase/Press Here/Harp party at the lovely French Legation Museum, the back-to-back slot of indie rock guitar heroes J Mascis and Thurston Moore was a treat. There are few bands as influential as Dinosaur Jr. or Sonic Youth. To watch these living legends perform in this intimate atmosphere in such a gorgeous location was amazing. The fact that they could pull off their respective styles in such a stripped-down setting was a testament to their power and skill.
Our final number one pick from SXSW is again broken up amongst two bands. Performing at the official JamBase Showcase at Austin's Smokin Music (which just may be the coolest new venue in town), Dusty Rhodes and the River Band threw down a passionate performance that proved their 2007 debut, First You Live (a top 20 pick from this writer) was no fluke. Featuring six musicians, three lead vocalists, violin and accordion, their tent revival atmosphere included a great cover of "The Weight" and one of the best frontmen I saw all week. Dusty Rhodes is onto something special. Coming on after Dusty was JamBase favorites Rotary Downs. Building the new sound of New Orleans one rock show at a time, this is one band that gets better each and every time they play. By mixing pedal steel with driving guitar lines, deep bass with perfect drums and just the right dash of trumpet, they set up a solid foundation for soaring multi-part harmonies to float above the fold. Layers upon layers of sound and just really cool songwriting continue to make Rotary Downs one of the most interesting acts rising from the Bayou.
Honorable mention goes to Howlin Rain. Although it was way too loud and they experienced some technical difficulties, this band melts the paint off walls. Their set could have been better, but seeing Rolling Stone stud David Fricke and super journalist Jaan Uhelszki was a nice reminder that this was the place to be at 11:30 on Saturday night.
Looking back over this massive week of music, we decided to break it down one last time for y'all with an overall Top 3 from SXSW.
Bon Iver
My Morning Jacket, Tuesday night at The Parrish. This show has actually not been addressed on JamBase until this point, but it was by far the most overwhelming gig at SXSW. Playing a private gig for about 200 people with perfect acoustics and an open bar, this was impossible to beat. We could spill pages of ink as to why, but I reckon the words My Morning Jacket, 200 people, open bar pretty much sum this one up.

SXSW :: 03.14.08 :: Austin, TX
Friday was possibly the greatest single day of music to cross these ears at South by Southwest in all the years I've stumbled through Texas. Generally you see one great band, two average ones, a crappy one, then another good one, and so on. Yesterday, everything I saw was stellar; and for the sunlight hours, it all went down at Emo's.
Holy fucking Bon Iver. Eyes closed with reverb pouring over my soul, this is where I hear the spirits. Taking a page from the world of acoustic My Morning Jacket (frontman Justin Vernon even looks a lil' like Jim James), "Skinny Love" and "Flume" had me on the verge on tears. With the huge, looped-out, feedback guitar meltdown to end the set, Bon Iver was second to no one... except maybe Yeasayer.
Yeasayer is some tribal, ancient, futuristic shit. Somehow both earthy and space age, these four cats are bridging some serious gaps. With hypnotic songs like "2080" and "Sunrise," this band is capable of appealing to the coolest hipster and the dreadiest hippie. Electronic drum pads, stacks of gear, fretless bass, Middle Eastern guitar progressions, walls of rock, samples out the ass, a convulsing David Byrne-esque frontman - Yeasayer is absolutely the real deal.
Today's honorable mention goes to two bands. First up is the darkest act I've seen in Austin: A Place To Bury Strangers. With almost no lights on stage, oceans of feedback and a My Bloody Valentine approach, this is one heavy band. Our second mention goes to Helio Sequence. Like the Black Keys earlier in the week, whenever two guys sound like four, you can't ignore them. This is dream-pop on overdrive. Go see Helio Sequence, you will not be disappointed.

SXSW :: 03.13.08 :: Austin, TX
Coming in at number two is Dr. Dog at the FADAR Fort Party celebrating the music of the Velvet Underground. With Lou Reed in the audience (he was the keynote speaker at SXSW this year) the Dog busted out beautiful, well rehearsed versions of "Who Loves The Sun" and "Ride Into The Sun" with gorgeous vocal harmonies.
Number one was a no contest: My Morning Jacket. No explanation is really needed as to why, but in case you are living under a rock here's the deal: MMJ are capable of moving from huge rock anthems like "One Big Holiday" to intimate, spine-tingling acoustic numbers like "Golden" and they just so happen to have a slew of new songs (Evil Urges comes out June 10) like "Highly Suspicious," which sounds like Prince on serious LSD. This band gets better everyday and they always deliver. Gawd bless the Jacket. They give us energy and hope when we need it most (like during a two week bender where we've barely slept and really need some solid food).
Honorable mention goes to young Ezra Furman for his passionate reading of the Velvet Underground's "Heroin" at the FADAR party.

SXSW :: 03.12.08 :: Austin, TX
It's that time of year again kids. SXSW is back in action. Over the next five days well over a thousand bands will be playing in every nook and cranny in Austin. As it would clearly be impossible to see even a fraction of this action - and as it would obviously be unwise to spend too much time blogging in our room - we're here to bring you our Top 3 Moments from each dirty day.
Coming in at number two was Dark Meat. With what appeared to be 19 people with painted faces, they couldn't even fit on the stage and spilled out to fill in the floor with six horns, a flute, all kinds of percussion, two drummers and lots of guitars. If Frank Zappa actually ate acid and fronted the Polyphonic Spree, this would be his band.
The Black Keys. Whenever two guys sound like four, they win. With heaps of feedback and a stellar batch of new songs, this was the most overpowering gig of the night. Bouncing from frantic guitars to pummeling Rhodes electric piano, Dan Auerbach is slowly growing into a true rock hero.
Honorable mention goes to The Weather Underground who set up their anthem-pop with well placed hooks and passionate delivery, not to mention a nice lil' "Dear Prudence" cover.
Check back soon as we'll be reporting each and every day from Austin...
That first photo rocks... I love that I can keep an eye on all the JamBase crew and get daily updates from SXSW since I can't be there. Keep it coming!
Kayce - you are one busy man my friend! Love the sound of Dark Meat and keep an eye out for them. Can't wait for the Black Keys tour thru the east.
Hope you get a chance to see Son Lux. I listened to the NPR music showcase today w/ Shout Out Louds, A.A. Bondy, Jens Lekman, Yeasayer, Bon Iver, and Vampire Weekend.
Damn good stuff from Jens Lekman, Yeasayer, and Vampire Weekend.
You can tune into these broadcasts online here - http://www.xponentialmusic.org/sxsw08/
Yup, I echo JK's sentiment, KC! From Langerado to SXSW !!!!! Hot Diggity Dog! Thanks for the reportin'. Enjoy your time away from the office. And the live music. Wish I could be there ....
also - http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=7729350
That photo with Saul Williams is awesome! I think Saul is one amazing dude, wish I was able to catch him here in the Bay coming up.
@toestothenose -- I also have been digging Jens Lekman, Yeasayer, Bon Iver & Vampire Weekend... playing those 4 lots lately.
Don't miss Kaki King!! Snap a shot of her and put it up. Her new CD is killer!! She's doing like 6 sets down there. Not to be missed if you're in Austin (wish I was this week).
OAKHURST is a freaking great time~! Check them out if you are there!!! ALL HAIL THE BIG OAK!!
Ha! Kayceman, I am laughing my ass off in Alameda right now! Sounds like one helluva time in Austin. Have fun and keep the highlights comin'
Saul Williams is a genius, but what the heck is he wearing? Ha!
You are all fooled... that is Niggy Tardust. "When I say Niggy, you say nothin"
Good to see Louisville well represented here. Wax Fang at #3 for Wed. & MMJ at #1 for Thurs. Everyone should check out Wax Fang's recent album La La Land. They sound like Queen, Wall-era Pink Floyd, & The Pogues all wrapped up in a badass power trio. And everyone should know by now the thunder that is MMJ. I can't wait for the new album and a tour.
JackStraw4, I couldn't agree with you more. And June 10th is too far away!
Ol Benny, your tha man dude! Can't wait to see you again. Of course the Ville respresents everywhere we go! Wax Fang, the Jacket! The album will kick ass, and you know the Fang has something else that they will bring. Also, Dr. Dog is the shit. One of the best new acts out today. They are great song writers and they put on on hell of a live show! WORD to the Ville!
Fleet Foxes new EP is amazing!! Grab it if you get a chance...
I heard the MMJ show through NPR. As expected, it was absolutely phenomenal, and Yo La Tengo wasn't too shabby either! I'll have to look up some of the other bands mentioned.
This is ridiculous! 4 amazing days of music in austin and all you can write about is Thurston Moore and MMJ??? WTF??? Indiebase.com has a chance to really fuck shit up with a great of review of possibly the best 4 days in the history of SXSW and we get this slop??? Let me tell you what I saw (all for a total of 25 dollars): Wednesday---an amazing tripple bill of Mason Jennings, Kimya Dawson, and Langhorne Slim for free on South Congress. Thursday---Grand Ole Party (the best band at SXSW this year) at Emos Lounge for free, The once in a lifetime Body of War Show: Serj, Tom Morello, Mason Jennings, Kimya Dawson, Billy Bragg, Ben Harper. Followed by a great Mason Jennings set. Friday--Black Keys destroying at Zona Rosa for free and the once again magical Kimya Dawson mesmerizing the crowd at Waterloo Records. Saturday--Grand Ole Party and Langhorne Slim at Waterloo Park followed by a trip to the (and i agree with you Kayceman) gorgeous French Legation Museum. J. Mascis and Thurston Moore were fucking awful. The snore inducing Thurston Moore's "band" sounded like a bad tribute band to Moore's horrible Sonic Youth. Boring. Every song sounded the same with absolutely no energy. After those two peices of garbage finished the real music started. first the suprsingly solid Okkervil River rocked thru some solid tunes. Then She and Him did their best Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins impersonation and delivered a great show. M. Ward and Zooey whatsherface impressed the shit out of me. The Garden Party was closed out by the once again amazing Kimya Dawson. Not only is she the most down to earth and humble musician I've ever encountered but the woman can write a fucking song. Sure I might have been the only non teenage girl with a eating disorder there, but her short yet powerful set put a smile on my face. The night finished at some dive bar on the east side of town. Foot Patrol and the Nouvellas equally wowed the 15 or so people that were there. All I can say is that if you werent at that show you missed out on a night of foot fetish themed funk and the chance to see the most beautiful woman in music Jamie from the Nouvellas. Indiebase.com---next year you should get me to throw together a SXSW review. I at least saw good artists unlike most of the throwaway nobodyisgoingtocareaboutthisflashinthepanbandsixmonthsfromnow crap that your fearless leader wasted his time on.
^^^ this moron is under the impression that anyone still pays attention or remotely cares about one thing he says. sad. if you dont like the reviews go somewhere else, something i am sure the vast majority of people around here would celebrate.
I'm glad you appreciated the fact that Kimya Dawson was down to Earth and humble, Liberals. Now the key is to try to instill those qualities in yourself. I also thought The Black Keys show at La Zona Rosa and Okkervil River at Stubb's were pretty great. MMJ and The Whigs at Austin Music Hall were #1 for me, though. Other performances that stood out were Duffy at Stubb's and Liam Finn at Volume.
"There are few bands as influential as Dinosaur Jr. or Sonic Youth" are you serious??????
I love this city and this festival! I caught some excellent music this weekend while enjoying some free nachos and free lonestar during the day parties. I got turned away from the showcase with Ben Haper on thursday and the solo Jim James set on saturday, but it's all good. DeVotchKa, Man Man, O'Death, and Destroyer were new bands that made the week for me.
LiberalsForMichaelSavageIn2008 ... One of the rare times I would have to agree with you. There was a ton more to write about.Kayceman... Its your web-site and you will do what you will with it as we have seen but rather then photo ops with provincial, effete, snobs why don't you get in the mud and review some bands we don't know of? It is SxSW after all.
"sounded like a bad tribute band to moore's horrible sonic youth"
you have no credibility because your taste in music absolutely sucks. no one cares about your opinion anymore. please stop posting your annoying comments that are written purely to get a negative reaction out of the other readers of this site.
"Body of War" show sounded illmatic. thanks for the different perspective on what sounded like a dope weekend all around
I'm with you Ned8. It is SXSW, a fest built to break indie, or unknown bands. Not to go see MMJ. I guess that is what homeboy is into though, but yeah, ughhhhh yawn. I guess there is something to be said about going where you are comfy, but to me these types of fests are about going to see and discover something new. The DC bands playing a showcase was my highlight.
Great time. Some of my favorites were van morrison, fleeting foxes, blitzen trapper, billy bragg, and the body of war show with tom morello, billy bragg and ben harper.
black moth super rainbow is sick.

Looking for advice on college majors
Hello. I'll be a college freshman in the US come August. The university I will be going to offers Studio Art and Graphic Design as its only art majors. Naturally, I'm wanting to be a concept artist for either the game or film industry. I've read that illustration would be the best major option for an aspiring concept artist, but at the moment that is out of the question. The university (Florida State) offers BFA degrees in both of the aforementioned majors. Now, I know degrees aren't of the utmost importance in art careers, but I'm curious as to which major would best benefit me in development of the skills I need to be a concept artist. I'm thinking Studio Art would be better since it entails drawing mechanics and the like. I would just have to familiarize myself with Photoshop outside of class in that case, since Studio Art probably wouldn't involve graphics.
I'm not sure though. So I ask you guys because I know you're top notch artists who have far more experience and insight than I do. So what would be my best bet, Studio Art or Graphic Design?

While I don't know the particular program, studio art is probably a better bet. Though going to a different schools is probably a better bet than either.

Understand that once you're out of school, you're going to have to compete at a professional level and not just be the best thing in that particular school.

What's so good?
By Devin Duckworth | May 11, 2012 | Total plays: 10,591
This cutesy schoolgirl-tough attitude is one that presides amongst a lot of girl bands out there right now. The juxtaposition of their retro style combined with current swaggering beats and severe lyrics is something that isn't overly forced but complimentary. Behind all of the fuzzy sweet and sour melodies her message is clear "" "When I am through with him, he will be wishing he was dead."

Crate Training PainsPosted by: Frank
Category: General Training
Posted on: October 23, 2002 at 18:37:36
First let me say that the advice I have receivved from this site, the FAQs and the Forum especially, has been invaluable. What a resource!
I am the new owner of our first JRT, Tonka. He is 11 weeks old, and my wife and I are crate training him. We started his first night home.
The problem is two fold: 1) He cries and whines and barks when he first goes into the crate. At night this carries on for about 5 minutes before he settles down and falls asleep. I think he just wants to be with us because he loves to watch us do EVERYTHING: cook, laundry, dishes, even baths! Tonka is also very cuddly and nearly dies if he can't catch a nap on your lap in the evenings. 2) He still won't sleep through the night. We go to bed at about 11:00pm, and get up at 7:00ish. I usually need to get him out to pee at least once, sometimes twice a night. He whines in the crate and wakes me up to take him out. I never play with him in the middle of the night, it's strictly BUSINESS. If I could get him to stop crying, I would feel better because I want him to be comfortable in his little crate. If he would sleep all night, I would feel more like going to work in the morning so I can afford to feed him... hmmmm is it all about me?
Tonka is crated while we are at work for about 8 hours a day, including two 1 hour breaks where one of us, or a firend ccome over for some vigourous play. he is never crated for longer than 3.5 hours, except at night.
Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to give a complete description fo the issues. Thanks so much, and we love our JRT!

EDUC 566 - Cross Cultural Awareness
Programs for Awareness in Cultural Education (PACE) and Teaching Performing Art for Cross-Cultural Education (TPACE) are partnerships between the Greenfield Intercultural Center and the Graduate School of Education. Their aims are to train students to increase cross-cultural awareness at the University of Pennsylvania.
PACE was founded in 1993 by Dr Navneet Khera, a graduate student at the time, at the initiative of GIC's acting director Joseph Sun, with advice and support from GSE Professor Nancy H. Hornberger. Khera's original conception remains the core of the PACE experience today.
Graduate level courses are co-facilitated by instructors to create a pedagogically democratic space with students for sustained engagement and dialogue about cross-cultural issues. Students explore differences among each other and within themselves through collaborative,experiential, and textual learning, interwoven with lived experiences.
After the course component is finished, instructors and the GIC staff continue to work with these students on campus in order to deepen their knowledge and to identify applied strategies for engaging in social change.
Program Structure:
PACE now includes three graduate level courses (open to all Penn students and staff) offered throughout the academic year. The courses provide students the opportunity to develop the skills and experiences that allow them to design and lead cross cultural discussions. After completion of a course students join the PACE experiential community which allows students to further engage the issues developed in class and develop the skills of facilitating cross cultural dialogue. The experiential community also serves as an on-campus resource that assists organizations and individuals throughout campus and the local communityin starting difficult but necessary dialogues and programs that deal with the many dimensions of human interaction - gender, race, sexual orientation, religion, age, ability, class, and others.
Democratic Classroom Environment:
Within each course ,we strive to create an environment where students are engaged and active participants in a democratic learning process. Within the PACE context democratic education means that students are peer educators - creating knowledge with the instructors rather then acting as containers waiting to be filled by expert knowledge. It also means that a supportive environment for cross cultural dialogue dismantles and exposes the hierarchy both within the structure of the classroom itself and between course participants.
Elements of democratic education:
- Course are facilitated by two instructors to model cooperative learning facilitation.
- Shared decision-making and responsibility among the students and instructors.
- A learner-centered approach; everyone can learn from anyone.
- Equality among instructors and students.
- The community as an extension of the classroom.
Program Goals:
- For students to address issues of cultural awareness, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, etc. through cross-cultural dialogue, introspection, research, writing and service learning.
- Creating "Peer Educators" by enhancing the following skills in students: Interpersonal communication, Self-awareness, Self-esteem, Improvisation, Team building, Reflective listening
- Provide opportunities for experiential learning through workshops and other service to the Penn community.
- Create a resource for ongoing outreach to all members of the university community by being a model service-learning experience.
- Contribute to creating a campus climate that fosters understanding.
Program Requirements:
- Pre-course survey/application (a permit is issued to register)
- Attend a weekend retreat (usually on a Saturday or Sunday) near the beginning of the semester.
- Weekly 3 hour class sessions at the Greenfield Intercultural Center.
- Complete assignments as designated in the syllabus, which usually includes readings, refection papers, in-class facilitation, and a final research project.
- Earn graduate level course credit.
- Learn workshop design and facilitation.
- Develop skills to engage difficult cross-cultural discussions.
- Explore the intersection of gender, ethnicity, sexuality, culture, society, and education.
- Improve and develop storytelling and performance skills.
- Learn how to incorporate performance art into a learning environment.
- Explore the intersection of gender, ethnicity, sexuality, culture, society, education, and art.
- Make strong and lasting connections with fellow course members and the diverse community of PACE and TPACE members, instructors, and advisors.
- Improve public speaking skills.

Lesley University has named Janis K. Martinson to the position of vice president of institutional advancement, following a nationwide search.
Wednesday, June 04, 2014
She has also been director of advancement for The Waldorf School of Garden City, N.Y., and has experience teaching in public- and private-school English and drama programs in New York and New Jersey.
"I'm looking forward to bringing my experience as a results-oriented educator and executive to Lesley, which for more than a century has committed to innovative and community-focused education for women and men," said Martinson, an alumna of Princeton University and a master's of business administration candidate at the University of Massachusetts Amherst's Isenberg School of Management.
"Janis will be a great addition to the Lesley community," said university President Joseph B. Moore. "Her education, her proven track record of creating and managing successful capital campaigns, and her commitment to supporting educational opportunities for all position her well to lead our Office of Advancement."
At Miss Hall's School, Martinson managed a centennial celebration and completed the school's first major fundraising initiative, a $23 million campaign for campus improvements that surpassed $25 million. She also oversaw a subsequent $43 million campaign for endowment and facilities expansion, and secured millions in bequests and donations of buildings and land.
Martinson assumes her responsibilities at Lesley in late summer and will focus on deepening the engagement between the University and its 82,000 alumni, completing funding for Lesley's Lunder Arts Center project in Porter Square, and enhancing financial support for the Urban Scholars Initiative and student scholarships.

The main photo was taken April 2015. The pictures with my niece and nephew were taken May 30, 2009 .I am retired two times but started two other businesses because I failed retirement both times. I am afraid to retire again because I have a feeling I will fail again. I will be able to stop working those if I can find someone to share the rest of my life with. It's difficult to go out and travel by yourself. At least it is for me. I have a lot to offer the right person. I like to have a glass of wine. The answer that was available makes me look like a souse, but the truth is a glass or two a day according to the doc, ain't so bad. I only drink red and have never tasted whisky etc. I thought that info may be important to speak to. I love to have a kind, sensuous woman at my side. I am romantic and like to kiss . I like to tease and laugh but no teasing that is hurtful. The couple woman I have met on here were sweethearts. Very nice people. The fact that we may not have been right for each other does not negate the fact that they will for sure, always be someone I respect. Please don't ask me to respond if you have chosen to not post a photo. If you do I know you did not read this. Ladies don't you like to see a picture of the brute that is winking at you? I have been very candid about myself and hope that she would also be that way. There is much more I could say about myself that is positive but they would mostly be lies. ( Ha. just seeing if you actually read this far) Nah, only kidding, I am perfect. Nah, that's a lie. I would like to believe that my faults are few and would not affect a relationship. I get along with my ex and her husband and everyone I ever dated. That may speak for itself. Well, if you are super, I am looking forward to speaking with you. God bless all those that put one photo of themselves and 10 of the dogs and cats. They are nice but do not really show who you are except that you love animals, as I do. I have had as many as 5 cats at one time and two large dogs, so needless to say I like them but would rather see you. Scenary is nice but,hmmm, is that you in the far pasture? Couldn't tell. Oh and don't forget we men are weird. Okay, I know you knew that but what I am getting at is your photos with men. On the beach, on a couch, driinking beer and laughing at a luau. We kinda like to think that is not an ex, so give us a nice lie and say it's your old uncle Jim or something like that. We are very insecure creatures. Time to light the fireplace.If you read this far I will tell you Spring Valley is where I live and it is near San Diego. Many people kept asking me where Spring Valley is so I knew they were not reading this all the way thru. Ciao.

Things may be terrible for the Arizona Cardinals, but Mark Sanchez and the New York Jets are the butt of jokes nationally. Coach Rex Ryan still thinks his beleaguered team has a chance at the playoffs. Sanchez and the Jets will try to rebound from an embarrassing performance by beginning to capitalize on a seemingly favorable season-ending stretch of schedule Sunday against the Cardinals. Arizona (4-7) opened the season 4-0 before its current seven-game tailspin put it practically out of playoff contention. While New York (4-7) owns the same record, it feels it still has a chance to make a run at a postseason spot. However, the Jets resembled anything but a playoff team on national television on Thanksgiving, losing 49-19 to AFC East-leading New England. They surrendered 35 points in the second quarter with three touchdowns coming in a span of 52 seconds, including a fiasco of a play by Sanchez that typified their season to date. The embattled quarterback tried to run the ball ...

eBook Category: Spiritual/Religion
eBook Description: Seven beloved teachers--Nancy Leigh DeMoss, Susan Hunt, Mary Kassian, Carolyn Mahaney, Bunny Wilson, Dorothy Patterson, and Barbara Hughes--exhort women to restore the beauty and truth of their godly calling with hope, humility, obedience, and prayer.
eBook Publisher: Crossway Books, Published: 2009

WHEN MY OLDEST DAUGHTER, Nicole, got married, she chose a unique theme for her wedding: her favorite Shakespeare play, Much Ado About Nothing. In addition to the Italian Renaissance decor of maypoles, wreaths, and kissing balls, the theme was carried on through to the reception, where guests were treated to four scenes from the play by the drama team from our church. Though written at the close of the sixteenth century, the witty sparring between the sharp-tongued, independent Beatrice and her reluctant love interest, Benedick, is as timeless as any modern romantic comedy:
Beatrice: I wonder that you will still be talking, Signior Benedick: nobody marks you.
Benedick: What, my dear Lady Disdain! Are you yet living?
Beatrice: Is it possible disdain should die while she hath such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick? Courtesy itself must convert to disdain, if you come into her presence.[1]
[Footnote 1: Version published by Shakespeare.com, copyright © 2000 by Dana Spradley, publisher of Shakespeare.com. Originally derived from the Complete Moby™ Shakespeare, now in the public domain.]
Though the language is archaic, Shakespeare's keen observation of the War of the Sexes is as fresh today as when he wrote it. The acerbic Beatrice, or "Lady Disdain" as Benedick aptly calls her, is still celebrated in our culture. She's a woman who contends with the men in her life and who is disrespectful in words and actions. Sadly, this is the model many young women grow up emulating.
While I'm glad Nicole enjoys Shakespeare's classic play, I'm more pleased that she has a biblical view of womanhood. Without God's Word as an anchor, modern women drift to extremes either embracing caricatures of femininity or rejecting it altogether. Secular feminist Susan Brownmiller sums up the confusion in her book Femininity: "Women are all female impersonators to some degree."[2] Ms. Brownmiller's definition of femininity is also alarming."Femininity, in essence, is a romantic sentiment, a nostalgic tradition of imposed limitations," she writes.[3]
[Footnote 2: Author summary of Femininity by Susan Brownmiller, as published on Susan Brownmiller. com, an author-generated web site.]
[Footnote 3: Susan Brownmiller, Femininity (New York: Fawcett Columbine, 1985).]
The Bible gives women far greater honor, hope, and freedom than this definition of femininity. We don't have to impersonate anyone, much less suffer limitations. The Scriptures that speak of women and godly femininity are infused with dignity and purpose. The God who created femininity has a beautiful purpose and plan for women.
Look back with me to the inauguration of femininity at the dawn of creation. The language of Genesis is elegantly simple:
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.... So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. (Gen. 1:27; 2:21-)
This passage shows that woman was the beautiful handiwork of God our Creator. Woman was God's idea, his creation. In fact, as we read the whole account of God's brilliant creation production, we discover that the woman was the finishing design of all that he created. She was the last act. Dare we say that God left the best for last? (I don't think we can take too much pride in that fact when we remember who was the first to eat the forbidden fruit!)
The important point here is that God created us, and being the creation of God determines everything for us as women. We don't look to our culture to find our feminine identity; we don't consult our feelings to discover our purpose. Everything that we are and everything that we do must be rooted in God.
It's not mere chance that we are women our gender is not accidental. We were intentionally and purposefully created. We are the planned and foreordained determination of an all-wise, all-powerful, and all-loving God.
That means when God created the first woman, he made a fully feminine creature. You and I did not become feminine because someone gave us a doll and put a dress on us we were born feminine because we were created feminine.
The feminist doctrine of our time upholds the notion that femininity is a matter of cultural conditioning. Many feminists argue that the only essential difference between men and women is our anatomy, but Genesis teaches otherwise. Because God created male and female, we women are innately feminine. Granted, a woman can accentuate her femininity or she can detract from it, but she cannot change it our sex chromosomes are in every cell of our bodies. Our femininity is a gift of grace from a loving God.
In the garden, God made man and woman fellow stewards of creation but with different, divinely assigned roles. "Then the LORD God said, 'It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him'" (Gen. 2:18). That is why God created Eve from Adam. She was created to be a helper suitable to him, to complement him, to nourish him, and to help him in the task that God had given him. Paul summarizes the creation plan by saying: "For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man" (1 Cor. 11:8-). This unique feminine purpose is well defined by John Piper: "At the heart of mature femininity is a freeing disposition to affirm, receive, and nurture strength and leadership from worthy men in ways appropriate to a woman's differing relationships."[4]
[Footnote 4: John Piper and Wayne Grudem, eds., Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood: A Response to Evangelical Feminism (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Books, 1991), 36.]
Note the phrase "differing relationships." It is not only in the context of marriage that we can express our femininity. We were created feminine; that is not a state conferred in marriage. We do not wait until we reach the marriage altar to give full expression to our femininity. Though it looks slightly different when we are single than when we are married, all women are called to display their femininity in a variety of relationships.
Please don't misunderstand me. This doesn't mean that we allow men to lead us into sin or away from God's priorities in our lives. But it means that we are inclined to affirm the leadership and initiative of the men around us.
Single women, please enjoy (appropriately) being a helper in these differing relationships with men, and trust God for your future. I encourage you to be at peace in this season. If the Lord has marriage planned for you, then you can rest assured that he is also the perfect matchmaker. It was God who said it was not good for the man to be alone. We have no record that Adam had complained of any lack. Rather, it was God who declared that aloneness is not good for a man. God was the one who made man aware of his need for a woman. So even though in your life there may be single men who seem to be unaware of their need for a woman, God is aware. Just as he did with Adam, God can break into the life of that single man and make him realize his desire for companionship. Resting in this truth will free you from the temptation to manipulate, complain, or become bitter three traits that greatly tarnish the luster of femininity.
In all our relationships, we should be making room for godly men to practice servant leadership. But I would especially encourage single women to ask the Lord to give them creative ways to inspire men to lead. Granted, this is not always easy, and I'm not promising you that all men will automatically lead. What matters is that you are cultivating the habit of making room for the leadership of the men in your life.
There are men in your life that the Lord has provided in this season fathers, bosses, friends and they need to know that you "incline" toward them, instead of resisting them in a stiff-necked posture of the heart. You encourage their godly leadership when you seek their counsel before making your own decisions. You respect them when you avoid sinfully complaining to others about their actions or decisions and resist publicly questioning their actions. When appropriate, we should ask questions, respectfully disagree, and offer our counsel. But we have to guard our hearts lest we allow our culture's attitude of female disrespect for all things male to permeate our perspective on their leadership. If you're not sure how well you are doing in this area, ask the men in your life.
If you are a married woman, the Lord calls you to express your femininity more particularly in the context of marriage. In some ways, this is much the same call as for single women, but it is more specifically defined and directed toward your husband. You display your femininity by coming alongside your husband and helping him in the task that God has given him. Author Douglas Wilson provides a wonderful portrait of a godly, complementary marriage:
The man needs the help; the woman needs to help. Marriage was created by God to provide a companionship in the labor of dominion. The cultural mandate, the requirement to fill and subdue the earth, is still in force, and a husband cannot fulfill this portion of the task in isolation. He needs a companion suitable for him in the work to which God has called him. He is called to the work and must receive help from her. She is called to the work through ministering to him. He is oriented to the task, and she is oriented to him.[5]
[Footnote 5: Douglas Wilson, Reforming Marriage (Moscow, ID: Canon Press, 1995), 19.]
Wives, we all have the same job description: We are our husband's helper. If you are wondering whether to pursue some particular endeavor, ask yourself this important question: Does this help my husband? Usually that one simple question will make your decision clear. My problem is that all too often I forget to ask that question. In fact, I have to confess that my orientation is often really toward myself rather than toward my husband. On numerous occasions I have made choices or pursued opportunities that served me rather than my husband.
This tendency is frequently illustrated in the mundane tasks of life. Recently I was cleaning out several disorganized cabinets in my kitchen. As I was working, I remembered the bathroom cabinet, which was also in dire need of cleaning. On several occasions as my husband had rummaged around that disheveled bathroom cabinet, he had graciously asked me when I thought I could get to that project. I usually informed him that I just didn't have time at present, but that I would get to it as soon as I could. However, as I was cleaning out the kitchen cabinets that day, I realized the problem was not that I didn't have the time to clean the bathroom cabinet; the truth was that I didn't really care about the bathroom cabinet. I wanted the kitchen cabinets clean because that served my purposes. My orientation was not directed toward my husband and his preferences it was directed toward me.
My selfish orientation has not only been evident in the way I care for my home; it has been highlighted in other areas as well. On one occasion God exposed it when I offered to make a meal for a friend in need. Of course that sounds like a noble endeavor, but I volunteered without asking my husband or even considering whether this activity would be considerate of him. I just proceeded with my own plan because it seemed good to me. When my husband discovered that I had offered to make a meal for my friend, he lovingly pointed out that it was not a good time for me to be serving in this way. It was a season in which we had many other responsibilities, with lots of traveling and speaking engagements. I was not serving my husband and my family by adding another task to our hectic lives at that moment.
As I reflected on the situation, I realized that I had agreed to make the meal because I wanted to look good in the eyes of my friend. I wanted her to know I was just as good a friend as every other woman who was bringing her a meal. Had she known what our schedule and responsibilities were at that time, I'm sure she would have dissuaded me from this task. But that wasn't a consideration for me I was seeking to impress her. After confessing my self-promoting pride to both God and my husband, I ended up buying my friend a meal from a restaurant. However, this could have been avoided if I had asked, Does this help my husband? I could have quickly determined that making a meal for my friend that particular week was not a wise thing to do.
Wives, in light of the Lord's instruction to us, we have to ask ourselves the hard questions on a regular basis: Do I care for my home in a way that helps my husband or serves me? Do I manage my time in a manner that assists my husband or serves my own agenda? Does the way I serve others support my husband or promote me? Do I ask for my husband's input before committing myself to a plan? Am I oriented to him and the work to which God has called him? We honor the Lord when we minister to our husbands in ways that enhance our God-given roles as companions and helpers.
I remember sitting next to a woman on an airplane flight who was addressing envelopes. We struck up a conversation, and she told me she was sending out wedding invitations for one daughter and graduation invitations for the other. I was about to congratulate her when she admitted, "It's so nice to be getting rid of both of them at the same time."
I cringed when I heard that. I was thankful her daughters weren't there to hear her words. Though it's a common attitude for many women in our culture, it should not characterize us as Christians. God intends that we enjoy motherhood and delight in our children.
As women, we are created to be life bearers. Our bodies have been designed with the ability to mother to receive, carry, and bear young. In fact, our bodies prepare themselves repeatedly to conceive and bear young. We express our femininity by gratefully embracing every stage of childbearing, receiving and nurturing each child as a gracious gift from God.
In no way does this exclude single women. As Elisabeth Elliot reminds us, a single woman may mother many children: "She can have children! She may be a spiritual mother, as was Amy Carmichael, by the offering of her singleness, transformed for the good of far more children than a natural mother may produce. All is received and made holy by the One to whom it is offered."[6]
[Footnote 6: Elisabeth Elliot, "Virginity," Elisabeth Elliot Newsletter, March/April 1990 (Ann Arbor, MI: Servant Publications), 1. Requoted by John Piper in the foreword to Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, xxv.]
Single and childless married women alike can express their femininity by nurturing other people's children. When you babysit, you are giving expression to your femininity. When you take an interest and reach out to other people's children, you are displaying your God-given femininity. When you tutor children or sponsor a needy child internationally or volunteer at a crisis pregnancy center or build relationships with your nieces or nephews, you are bearing fruit in this area. I give thanks to God for all the single women in my life and for the countless times they have cared for my children, loving them as though they were their very own. We mothers want to say thank you for their doing that, for their blessing us in that way. It means so much to us, and we are grateful to them. But they are doing more than blessing us; they are honoring God by selflessly investing in the young lives around them.
If we do have children, we bring delight to God when we find joy in our roles as mothers. But what about those times when we find this mothering task to be a burden? What about those times when we lack joy or feel overwhelmed with the endless demands? Motherhood is a huge responsibility, an enormous task. In fact, there is probably no profession that requires greater sacrifice and servanthood. There is nothing easy about good mothering. As one woman said, "It can be back-breaking, heart-wrenching, and anxiety-producing and that's just the morning!" It's easy to grow weary and to focus on all the sacrifices being made rather than on the joys that motherhood can bring.
I vividly remember one particular weekend when I hit motherhood meltdown. My two older daughters were five and four and my youngest was still an infant, and C. J. was away on a ministry trip. The older girls came down with a vicious stomach virus, and I spent a solid twenty-four-hour period cleaning up behind them. Of course, they missed the bucket nearly every time. I was simultaneously cleaning up vomit, changing dirty diapers, and doing endless loads of soiled laundry. There was no relief, and I was utterly exhausted. I remember thinking, Really, is what I'm doing all that important?There are women out there working 9 to 5 who seem to be doing something much more important than this! It was a discouraging and emotionally depleting time.
When C. J. returned, he sent me out for my morning away, a weekly habit for us. I took my Bible and holed up in the corner of a nearby fast-food restaurant, desperately seeking God for a fresh vision for the work of mothering. As I prayed and studied God's Word, the Lord revealed to me that I wasn't "just" to be a mom;rather, God had called me to be a mother. The perspective of having a calling gave motherhood a whole new significance, and I repented of my complaining and grumbling.
It is common for weary mothers to lack biblical perspective, to need fresh vision for the significance of our calling. In those moments, there really is no other source of refreshment than God. I would encourage you to offer your weariness and discouragement to Jesus in prayer, trusting his intercession on your behalf. Only your Creator can provide you with the eternal perspective you need to see these fleeting years as vitally important in the lives of your children. God wants to give you fresh strength and new joy for the task, which he is more than able to provide from the riches of his grace that he lavishes on us "in all wisdom and insight" (Eph. 1:7-8).
The woman of virtue portrayed in Proverbs 31 is commended for watching over the affairs of her household. In Titus 2:3-, Paul instructs the older women to teach younger women how to be busy at home. These and other Scriptures make it clear that while it is the man's responsibility to be the provider for the home, it is the woman's responsibility to be the caretaker for the home. Domesticity devotion to the quality of home life is an essential facet of femininity.
Single women (especially young women), may I advise you not to wait until marriage to cultivate this? Whether you get married or not, you can express your femininity by developing a love and devotion for the home. In fact, don't assume that if you ignore cultivating a heart for the home while you are single, you will automatically have it once you get married. You may be in for a surprise! I have talked to many married women who admitted they didn't value domesticity when they got married. They didn't like being at home; they didn't like caring for the home. They didn't value homemaking as a worthy profession. Why? Because they didn't develop a vision for the importance of home life while they were single. They filled their single years with every possible pursuit but a devotion to the home. I'm not saying other pursuits are wrong; the single years do provide opportunities for many other God-honoring pursuits. But these should be balanced with cultivating a love for the home.
Whether you are living at home with your parents or you have a home of your own, there are some practical steps you can take to learn domesticity. Learn now how to manage the order and cleanliness of a home, how to cook meals and care for clothing, and how to beautify a home.
Even for older singles, there is still a godly call on your life as a woman to bring balance to your professional life by "working at home" (Titus 2:5). I know many single women who have created warm, appealing homes whatever their living arrangements and who regularly practice hospitality. Some keep guest books or photo albums of those who have shared a meal or stayed overnight in their homes; others are talented with crafts, filling their rooms with beautiful, handmade items. Marital status has nothing to do with the feminine desire to create a warm, inviting home.
There are many practical aspects to consider in homemaking. In 1 Timothy 5:14, Paul commands young widows to "manage," or preside over, their homes. We are to manage the order or schedule of the home, its cleanliness, and its atmosphere, as well as to engage in other practical acts of service such as preparing meals and meeting the clothing needs of our families.
Proverbs 14:1 says, "The wisest of women builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down." In other words, the home is our place to build. Our culture says it's not a place worthy of our best labors, but we have to be careful not to allow the world to affect our thinking. The home is our primary place for ministry. Someone once said of Edith Schaeffer, "As many people were brought to the Lord through Mrs. Schaeffer's cinnamon buns as through Dr.Schaeffer's sermons."[7] Our scope of ministry is different than that of men, but it is no less important it is God's assignment to us.
[Footnote 7: Mary Pride, The Way Home: Beyond Feminism, Back to Reality (Wheaton, IL: Crossway Books, 1985), 202.]
We were created purposefully by God to live purposefully by his Word. Though the world, even classic literature, would memorialize the tongue and attitude of "Lady Disdain," Christian women can be different by the power of the Holy Spirit. We do not have to be "female impersonators" who view femininity as a "nostalgic tradition of imposed limitations." Contrary to popular opinion, femininity is not "much ado about nothing"! In the awe-inspiring generosity of the Lord, we have been created with a unique task to be fulfilled in order to glorify him. If we cultivate and express our femininity with this in view, we will be commended by our Maker for the wise stewardship of this precious gift.

The Marvelous Spatuletail, like so many of South America's hundreds of hummingbird species, has a name that is both charming and descriptive. This one occurs only in the Rio Utcubamba valley, in the Andes of northern Peru. Here, in a bid to prevent the species' extinction, ABC and Asociación Ecosistemas Andinos (ECOAN) helped establish the Huembo conservation easement in 2005.
The main threat to this hummingbird is habitat destruction, caused by illegal wood-cutting and burning for agriculture. Other threats include illegal hunting and invasive plants, which crowd out native flowering plants that provide food.
The male's unique tail features two long, wire-like outer feathers ending in bluish-purple disks (spatules), which the birds wave around during their elaborate courtship displays. Male Marvelous Spatuletails perform at leks, or communal display areas, where females visit to select a mate.
ABC and ECOAN continue work with local communities to reforest the Huembo Reserve, which is an Alliance for Zero Extinction site, and surrounding private lands. Huembo also protects other vulnerable and endangered species including the Little Woodstar and Speckle-chested Piculet.
If you're interested in visiting Huembo, please visit our Conservation Birding website and ECOAN's website for more information. You can see it and help to save it through your visit!

I really need to check these games out...
I have a feeling FinalArcadia is giggling over us flailing over these pictures.
Walking alongside her old king, Esty helped inspect the remaining adventurer and alchemist stands and shops, taking a break from her own participation. Walking down the streets, seeing a multitude of loving couples browsing the wares… she sighed, reminded of her own single status despite her age.
"Something the matter?" Gio asked.
"Oh, no, not really," uttered Esty, her attention snapping back to the task at hand. All of the competitors seemed to be managing their shops wisely, so it was an easy enough job… until arriving at Astrid's location.
Astrid was arguing with Sterk, the latter of whom could be heard saying something about "my pupil" and "who ties people up," seemingly at his wit's end with the smug alchemist. Of course the last stop would be the most problematic, Esty lamented.
"What's going on here?"
"Ah, if it isn't our dear old maid," Astrid remarked, enjoying the fleeting look of irritation that crossed Esty's face. "There's absolutely nothing to see here, move along."
Sterk quickly turned to face Esty, explaining the situation. As his explanation continued on longer and longer, Esty's expression turned to a frown as she realized action would need to be taken against the black-haired woman across from her.
"Look, Astrid. In accordance with competition rules, I'm going to have to ask you to – "
"Hey, Esty, remember that time you went looking for that hot spring? You know… the one that would supposedly make you look younger?" Astrid inquired, a mischievous look gleaming in her eyes.
"…Yes," answered a hesitant Esty.
"You weren't quite as alone as you thought you were there, seeing as I have some choice photographs from that occasion." Astrid watched as Esty's eyes widened, a look of both confusion and panic present. "I bet there would be some people who wouldn't mind seeing these pictures…"
"Stop, no!" A pause. "…What do you want from me?" Esty finally asked, tipping the balance of power to Astrid.
"Oh, I don't know… I might reconsider spreading these photos if you just forget about everything you saw over here today. And if you could just sit back more during the contest, that'd be great."
It wasn't her proudest moment, but Esty agreed to Astrid's wishes. The alchemist's laughter echoed in her ears as Esty admitted a temporary defeat.
Esty Dee
Appearances: Atelier Rorona: The Alchemist of Arland, Atelier Meruru: The Apprentice of Arland
Formerly a receptionist in Arland Castle, you were responsible for assigning and report on tasks for Rorona, while also acting as a source of advice.
Much later on, it is revealed that you also work as an investigator/spy for the Arland Republic, and are currently serving as a bodyguard of sorts to Gio. Though you are devoted to your work, you are more than a bit disappointed that you are about 40 years old and not married.
Utilizing your stealth and skill as a bodyguard, you are a 1-shot vigilante. This kill will bypass doctor protection, so be careful!
You are allied with Adventurers. You win when all the Alchemists are eliminated.
Good luck, and have fun!

This is a re-working of my first Dungeons and Dragons character I ever rolled. I wanted to really think out of the box when I created her so I decided playing a Joan of Arc character as a male player would not only be a challenge but throw people for a loop at the time. She died only once but was resurrected and retired as a 16th level Paladin/ 32nd level Priest. Originally she started out as a "cursed?" Paladin with amnesia who animal companion (from the Beast l ands which she originated) was merged into her being so that anytime she was severally injured she would transform into a giant white tiger but had no control of her actions, the "Curse?" also left her eyes pure white with no pupils although this never affected her vision. Her holy symbol was tattooed on her face with metallic ink and when ever she used her turn un-dead ability or healed someone with the paladin's lay on hands ability it would glow. After her resurrection she was no longer connected to her animal spirit until she finally called for her holy mount which turned out to be her old animal spirit. She has had many adventures including the special battle bow that she managed to get made in concert from both dwarves and elves side beside.

Imagination is not a total internal power but rather it is a reflection and multi-faceted projection of our experiences and knowledge. We take in information from the world around us and intuitively re-order it into something new. Something is not created from nothing but simply transformed from what was before.

Draw from the model as often as possible. Draw from photos. Draw from the mirror.
Draw less from your imagination for a little while. Take a photo of yourself as reference for your work. Loot at photos of real armor. Look how dark it is, and then how tight the highlights are. Your armor looks like its made out of plastic.

Hi and thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I have such a hard time talking about myself but here I go. Well I would say I am a classy, educated, down to earth and fun person. People say that I have a great body and dress with class. I am a transplant from the NY/NJ. Moved here for a job. Not from Cleveland but can appreciate midwest values. My friends say I love to laugh, joke around and then can have that serious, compassionate side when it's needed. I love my work but not obsessive. I did that and lost alot a long the way. Now I take time to relax and enjoy life to the fullest! I am compassionate person, value a guy who knows how to treat a lady, I take care of myself and hope he does too, stylish, nice to others, likes to travel, cook together, have great conversation and lots of laughing is a must! I am 5'4", have blondish hair, in shape, sweet, and ready for someone who is really special and is looking for the same. I want someone who is handsome, is mentally and finacially secure, who can go with the flow and has had time to think about what he really wants from a woman. No head games are allowed and no chaos. I am at a point where I am grounded and want the same from a man. Most important is trust and listening to ones ideas and needs. If you are confrontational in any way no need to email me.If you can laugh at yourself and not take life too seriously thats even better. If you like to travel thats a big plus. I appreciate people who enjoy different cultures, beliefs, and food. I enjoy Thai food and Sushi. I enjoy the finer things in life and not ashamed of it. But I also know the importance of being humble. I am a spiritual person as well. I believe you treat others like you want to be treated. Being in shape is important to me. Try to work as much as I can. I like to cook and eat healthy. Just being active no matter what you do is so important. I have much gratitude for the life I have. I try to give back to the community as much as I can. What I can offer to the right person is kindness, passion, give and take, great conversation, take care of someone when they are down, cuddling on the couch on a rainy day, cooking,...if the chemistry is there then anything is possible. I hope you love your family as much I love mine, have great friends, and have a zest for life. I am looking for the non perfect -perfect partner. I can be independent but I love the inter-dependency of a relationship.I have alot of energy and would like the same in a partner.

Like all sorts of music to spanish quitar, brazillian jazz,jason muraz, neyo, chris issack, any 80's music, john coltrain, taj mahal. I am pretty young at heart and hope the same from the person I share my life with. No reason to be old and act old....No COUCH POTATOS......life is too short. If you are looking for some of the same things I am don't hesitate to email me. I am looking for a long term relationship. I have had several long term relationships but they just were not to be at that time.Hoping you have a college degree and you are financially secure. Thanks for reading.
