Exercise more. Floss daily. Remember anniversary this year. Something's missing… computer security! Your list of resolutions isn't complete until you add "update my security software" and "protect my passwords" to the mix. Don't worry, it's not time consuming. Protecting yourself from scammers, hackers, and identity thieves is definitely something you'll want to do this year.
After the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, many people are looking for a way to help, like making a donation to a charity or fund.
It's no secret that kids take to the Internet like — hmm, ducks to water.
It's also no secret that parents are concerned about their kids' privacy online.

George William Rendel
Sir George William Rendel (1889 – 6 May 1979) was a British diplomat.[1]
Early years[edit]
Rendel, the son of the engineer George Wightwick Rendel was educated at Downside School and at Queen's College, Oxford, graduating in Modern History in 1911.
Diplomatic career[edit]
HRendel then entered the Diplomatic Service. He was head of the Eastern Department of the Foreign Office, 1930–1938. In 1937 he and his wife Geraldine (1884–1965) crossed Arabia. His wife, Geraldine, was the first European woman to be received for dinner at the royal palace in Riyadh.
Rendel said of Riyadh:
:"...it was a revelation to me of how fine in line and proportion modern Arabian architecture can be."
In 1941, he was appointed Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, a post held until 1943.[2] He was knighted in the latter year and served as Ambassador to Belgium between 1947 and 1950.
Whilst Rendel was His Britannic Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Bulgaria, the United Kingdom broke off diplomatic relations as the country was now under the control of the Nazis. It fell to Rendel to take his staff of 50 by train to Istanbul, in Turkey. His party was caught in a huge bomb explosion at the Pera Palace Hotel. Rendel was upstairs when the bomb in the baggage room exploded with devastating consequences. His daughter Ann, then 21 and acting as Legation Hostess, was knocked down and slightly injured. In all there were four deaths and 30 injured. It was later claimed by the Germans that various bombs had been placed in the Legation's luggage before it left Sofia.[3]
Rendel headed a Commission in 1953 to recommend further changes in the constitutional system that helped created the Constitution of Singapore under the Singapore Colony Order in Council 1955.[4]
Rendel also served on various UN committees. Though officially retired, he continued to be employed by the Foreign Office until 1964.
Rendel had two sons, David & Peter and two daughters, Ann and Rosemary, with his wife Geraldine. His wife died in 1965 and he died in 1979.
His 1957-published memoirs are entitled The Sword and the Olive.

What other bags can I mount on stock system?

Pelican Cases
Found a neat and fairly inexpensive method for mounting Pelican 1520 hard saddlebags on my KTM 950.
1. I bought two Pelican #1520 cases from E-bay for something like $65 ea. Same size as on my KLR. Water/dust proof, lock with a padlock, form a shelf when opened, dent-proof, easily replaced and much cheaper than the aluminum boxes they sell for $600.
2. Then bought two of Touratech part #053-0020, Pannier mounting kit 18mm ($57 ea.)
3. Installed the mounting kits as shown in photo "Touratech Mounts on Pelican Case". Notice at the 8 and 10 o' clock positions where I had to grind away some of the ribs on the Pelican case to flush fit the rack tubing.
4. Photo "Pelican inside view" shows the two hand wheels that loosen the mounts from inside the case. Removal time (no tools needed) is about 30 seconds per case.
5. Photo "Side View of Mounted Pelican Case" shows the side profile and protection offered to the bike in case of a get-off. Position doesn't interfere with passenger.
That's it! For less than $250 you get rugged, waterproof, easily replaced, removeable and lockable hard side bags for your KTM 950 that are much narrower than the Gobi bags.
Hope the photos or at least the links to them show up on this message. I'm new to photo posting.

Sound of Music Lives On!3/5/2007
I am 55 years old and had never had the opportunity to see the movie "Sound of Music". Over the years, I had heard clips of the songs that were used in the movie and was delighted to see them actually performed. Given the quality of many movies produced today, it was such a breath of fresh air to see such a moving performance. Thank you for the privilege of owning this movie.

(Update) The Anti-Chavez and Popular American Ally
9:52 AM, Mar 13, 2006 • By DANIEL MCKIVERGAN
(Update II: Uribe supporters won big in yesterday's congressional elections, paving the way for passage of the U.S-Colombia free trade deal. With strong support in Congress and probable reelection in May, Uribe's offensive against the FARC will likely intensify. All of this is pretty remarkable given that just a few years ago the FARC greeted the newly elected president by firing mortars at the presidential palace while he took the oath of office inside. The attack, which killed dozens, led many analysts to offer grim assessments on Colombia's future. Uribe, who came to office after the fail of several "peace initiatives," has proven them wrong.)
(Update: FARC terrorists continue their killing spree in their effort to destabilize Colombia's democracy. This time, AP reports, they gunned down eight unarmed town officials while they ate lunch.)
Venezuela's Hugo Chavez gets lots of media attention with his anti-American rants. But in bordering Colombia, President Alvaro Uribe is a friend of America and an anti-terror ally. In a nation where tens of thousands have been killed and many more scarred physically and emotionally from decades of violence and terror, things are looking a bit brighter these days. Killings and kidnappings are down. Drug production has been cut. Foreign investment is rising; the economy has stabilized; and for the first time in almost a decade Standard & Poor's boosted its rating for Colombian debt. Not bad for a man derided as a "hardliner" by his political opponents whose election, they warned voters, would be a disaster for Colombia. Right now, Uribe is on track to score another impressive election victory in May and that doesn't sit well with Colombia's FARC terrorists who on Saturday, the Associated Press reports, ambushed a civilian bus with gunfire, killing nine.
Uribe's prospective reelection follows in the footsteps of other friends of America. Australia's John Howard won a fourth term, while Tony Blair was elected to an unprecedented third. German and Canadian voters fo

1852 Humbert Octagonal Fifty, AU581852 $50 RE Humbert Fifty Dollar, 887 Thous. AU58 PCGS. K-11, R.5. Few coins are as iconic of the Old West than the fifty dollar "slug" issued by the United States Assay Office. Those heavy coins were the principal means of exchange in California during the life of the Assay Office, which extended from 1851 to 1853. The tenor of the Assay Office pieces was uncontested, unlike many of the private gold coins that preceded it. Coins from defunct firms such as Baldwin & Co. and Norris, Gregg & Norris were rejected in commerce, and melted for a profit by shrewd California bankers. Perhaps the Assay Office fifty dollar pieces were too successful, since it was difficult to secure small change until late in the 1850s. What silver coins existed, regardless of country of origin, tended to end up at the U.S. Customs Office, which declared gold dust to be unacceptable for payment of duties.
Reeded Edge, 887 Thous., K-11
Reeded Edge, 887 Thous., K-11
While the Assay Office slugs were common in commerce during the early 1850s, such pieces were roughly handled and often spent years in circulation. Once the Federal Mint opened in 1854, innumerable Assay Office slugs met their demise in Mint furnaces, in favor of more fungible U.S. gold coins. Despite large mintages for the 1852 Humbert fifty, few Uncirculated examples have survived. PCGS has certified no pieces as Mint State. While the present coin shows light wear on the rock and the eagle's shield, plenty of luster shimmers from protected regions, particularly on the reverse. The rims and fields have also largely escaped the bruises, scratches, and heavy abrasions typically seen on these historic coins. There are also no signs of tooling, an endemic problem for territorial gold. The winning bidder will have a true trophy coin, a cornerstone to an important collection of Western gold.

USD grad overcomes ankle surgeries and long layoff to reach semifinals of event
"This is the best I've ever played," McCready said.
He qualified for the Mid-Am in dramatic fashion, making a 50-foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole to earn the final spot at La Costa. Incredibly, the day after, McCready reworked his swing, going from a primary draw to fade — without any coaching or video, by the way. He said he hasn't had any instructional help in years.
"I'm very feel oriented," he said. "Going to the cut has made it so much more fun to play. I can see why Tiger (Woods) did it. I hit it so much more solid. I smile each time I hit it, basically. It feels so cool.
"I know you can change your swing and completely ruin your game. I got lucky and it made my game 100 times better."
The Mid-Amateur provided such a huge confidence boost that McCready believes he's ready for the next step.
"It validated everything I worked for, and I'm going to go pro," he said. "I'm the healthiest I've been in 10 years, and I want to give this a shot now. I feel like I can go into any tournament right now and do awesome."
After what McCready just did, who's going to doubt him?

Oh. My . God.
According to The New York Times, Mets broadcaster Keith Hernandez is, well, about to do the unthinkable.
The Hernandez mustache might have a month of life left in it.
He announced the possibility of shaving it last week on a Mets broadcast. But Hernandez, 58, said Monday that he might simply show up for the Mets' final game of the season, on Oct. 3, with nothing but bare skin between his nose and upper lip.
I'm not sure what the thought process behind all this is, but the former first basemen claims it has something to do with his iconic mustache turning gray.
"I'm not totally happy with the gray," he said. "It's something I have to get used to. I have more people, on the female side, who tell me they prefer it gray."
In 2007, Hernadez's lip sweater was named the "Top Sports Mustache of All-Time" by the American Mustache Institute. And as one would imagine, the AMI is not pleased with the 1979 National League MVP's decision to shave.
"Keith Hernandez removing his lower nose foliage is a crime against nature akin to the Washington Monument ceasing to be phallic or Todd Akin being sane," Executive Director Dr. Aaron Perlut said Tuesday.
Now, if you'll excuse me...I need to go off to a corner and cry.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London

By Alex Brownsell, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Thursday, 26 May 2011 12:58PM
The Toyota Friend service will enable drivers to receive Twitter-style messages from their car about issues such as maintenance and low batteries in electric (EV) and plug-in hybrid (PHV) vehicles.
Using cloud-computing technology, drivers will also be able to communicate with Toyota customer services and dealerships, as well as interacting with friends and family through Twitter and Facebook.
The network will initially only be available in EVs and PHVs going on sale next year in Japan, but Toyota said it was looking into expanding the service to markets such as the UK, should it prove successful.
Akio Toyoda, president of Toyota Motor Corporation, said: "Social networking services are transforming human interaction and modes of communication. The automobile needs to evolve in step with that transformation. I am always calling for Toyota to make ever-better cars. The alliance that we announce today is an important step forward in achieving that goal."
It comes a week after the Japanese manufacturer announced a partnership with Microsoft to install all global vehicles with internet connectivity.

College of Science
Chemistry at Purdue University has a ratio of 1 faculty member for every 8 undergraduates, which allows students to enjoy a great deal of individualized attention. It also offers opportunities for mentoring programs and cutting-edge undergraduate research in a wide range of fields from drug discovery to climate change. Chemistry majors can pursue one of two degrees: bachelor of science in chemistry, accredited by the American Chemical Society (ACS); or the more flexible bachelor of science with chemistry as a field of study, which allows for specializations in ACS-accredited biochemistry or chemistry education.
The B.S. program with chemistry as a field of study is designed for those who want less specialized training in chemistry than is required for the B.S. in chemistry (ACS) degree. Free electives allow a student to build a program of study in another area to complement a chemistry background. It is possible, for example, to concentrate elective credit hours in one of the following areas: administration, biochemistry, chemical literature, chemical physics, computer applications in chemistry, cosmochemistry, geochemistry, patent law, and preprofessional.
There is also the opportunity to complete in five years a dual degree with chemical engineering or material science engineering, after acceptance into the College of Engineering.
Transfer GPA and Course Requirements
Purdue admits to individual majors. To be considered for admission as a college transfer student, applicants must meet minimum GPA requirements for their desired major. In addition, some majors have course requirements. Requirements for this major are posted below (unless the program is closed to transfers).
Minimum GPA: 2.5
Additional Requirements: Completion of at least one semester of college-level calculus equivalent to MA 16100 or MA 16500 with a grade of C or higher.

Quote 57 of 60
I just wanted to say thank your for possibly the most remarkable piece of software I've ever purchased. Definitely worth every cent!
I have been researching my family tree on both my mother and fathers side for over 2 years now. The software has always been easy to use, intuitive, flexible and stable. The addition of the Descendants report allows me to share my information with my family as the trees themselves are too big to print - even though they're split (and hyperlinked) over 10 sheets!!!
Thanks again!

great staff. I enjoyed my stay at here but there was some problems about hot water. they told me it was never happened before and they were gonna fix it. i hope they did. and one more tip: don't go trips with the hostel tours. you should go by yourself it is not hard but it is cheap.

Located a street down from a square full of activity, it's easy to find things to do nearby. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean. The staff were by far the best aspect of this hostel, friendly, and telling me where to find amazing pierogis, fun activities downtown, and a tour. also my room had a locker with a lock!

Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) today welcomed the decision by Bahrain's Attorney General to hold civilian trials for 20 doctors who were sentenced last week as alleged backers of anti-government protests.

It was with disbelief and dismay that I read of proposals to send internet data over electricity power lines (15 January, p 26).
For over a century, radio engineers have increased the sensitivity of high-frequency radio receivers by many orders of magnitude, allowing communication worldwide using transmitter powers of only hundreds of watts.
The HF spectrum from 3 to 30 MHz is potentially capable of allowing something of the order of 10,000 short-wave speech channels in each continent of the Earth. Any imaginable tsunami warning system would certainly need to use that spectrum.
During the past 50 years, communication engineers have designed more and more subtle methods of modulation to make the best use of this spectrum. During the same half century, electronic engineers have worked assiduously to design ways of preventing equipment from interfering with that spectrum.
Now, for a quick buck and no more than a very temporary ...

Dubai's own happily ever after: Crown prince engaged to...who?!
The crown prince met Said while working on a charity project last year in one of Dubai's shantytowns (Courtesy of World News Daily Report)
Folks, this is a happily ever after story that is sure to make waves on UAE's shores!
Thw 28-year-old crown prince of Dubai is tying the knot with his love, former street girl Kalila Said, according to World News Daily Report.
Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum met the 23-year-old Said while working on a charity project last year in one of Dubai's poorest shantytown neighborhoods. But it sounds like Said was not as charmed as you might think with Mr. Hamdan, at least not right away. According to the report, it was not until three months after the engaged couple met that Said agreed to start seeing him (and you can guess how the rest of the story goes...).
Some rumors circulated that Hamdan's father, Dubai's ruler, threatened to disown his son if he continued his relationship with Said, but such rumors seem far from the truth with reports that Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum gave his blessing already to the newly-engaged couple.
While most media headlines have focused on Hamdan as Said's "catch" and the "lady's prize" due to his charm, good looks, talents (an avid skydiver and poet), and of course status, Said is quite the catch herself as well, having earned her degree in Psychology from the American University of Dubai as a recipient of a Royal scholarship for exceptional merit.
Mr. Hamdan was previously engaged to one of his cousins, Sheikha Sheikha Al Maktoum, but the wedding was called off earlier this year.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 10/12/12
A New Jersey appeals court ruled Friday that the former girlfriend of Brooklyn Nets CEO Brett Yormark cannot sue him for allegedly failing to keep promises he made on the condition that she have an abortion. The court ruled that while Reyna Purcell's decision may have been influenced by Yormark, the final decision to end the pregnancy was hers. ''Under the law and public policy, there is no cause of action for terminating one's pregnancy and then regretting the decision due to subsequent events,'' the two-judge panel wrote. Reyna Purcell, now 35, got pregnant shortly after she started dating Yormark, according to court filings. Purcell claimed she wanted to keep the baby, but Yormark threatened to break up with her if she did not end the pregnancy. Purcell claimed Yormark promised to stay in the relationship and take her on vacation if she had an abortion, according to the ruling. Purcell had an abortion in February 2011, according to the ruling, and Yormark ended the relations...

10 Sign Fails That Totally Confuse Us

The epic, the permanent and the embarrassing. Fails are a hilarious reality that luckily give us (the non-failers) endless entertainment. This time, we're rounding up unfortunate sign fails.
Sometimes somebody has one job to do...JUST ONE...and they can't even get it right. These are those times. Here are our favorite examples of the latest internet meme that involves somebody screwing up one simple task. ONE.
If you're anything like us, you probably have no idea what day it is. Well, it's Monday, April 1st. Yes, it's April Fool's Day, which means that Google is planning to pull the wool over our eyes all day long. Here are some of the pranks they're pulling, in cas
April Fool's Day is today, and what better way to celebrate the day that it's totally cool to wrap a toilet in cellophane than to go through some of the best celebrity pranks throughout the ages?
Of course, by "ages," we mean anything within the new millennium.
The best new artists brought their motivation into 2013, and are already seeing their careers bloom before spring even arrives. It's ample drive and careful planning that separates them from the pack of aspiring emcees and singers, but it's also talent that pushes them ahead of the rest.
With spring just around the corner, there's no better way to celebrate than seeing a great show. R&B concerts are the perfect spot to impress a date or chill out with your crew.
When it comes to flipping scripts, look no further than these rappers-turned-actors. Artists like Will Smith, Queen Latifah and Ice Cube have successfully transitioned themselves from being an actor to becoming Hollywood heavyweights. Other rhyme-slingers like T.I., Ludacris and Bow Wow are on the come-up, playing an array of characters on the big screen.
It looks like Lil' Kim has been having a lil' work done. As near as we can tell, she took a photo of La Toya Jackson to a plastic surgeon raising money for his mom's heart transplant and told him what she was going for, so he's trying his damndest to get her there.
Because, seriously, what?
Have you seen her face lately? Even calling it "her face" is inaccurate at this point -- because what she has now is certainly not what she started with.
Chocolates. Flowers. Candlelight dinners. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Those are all nice and perfectly acceptable Valentine's Day gifts, but what a snoozefest. In honor of this lover's holiday, we've decided to get imaginative and put together a list of non-traditional gifts we'd give our favorite pop stars like Justin Bieber, Rihanna, Taylor Swift and more.
In the week leading up to Super Bowl XLVII, it sometimes seemed there were more members of the media than fans in New Orleans. The result? Microphones and video cameras were everywhere picking up dumb comments by 49ers and Ravens players who would probably much rather just play the game. Here are the 5 dumbest things said during Super Bowl week:

Good on you for putting that back on the road.
From the look of you in that old photo, you must have been under 18 when you got that bike. I can't imagine having one of those early ones as a first bike.
I've got a 1975 H1 that I bought new sitting in pieces scattered around my garage and barn.
I've decided to pass it off to someone who can put a higher priority on restoring it than me. Includes a spare rolling chassis, two spare engines (both needing complete teardown) a collection of NOS parts purchased over a period of several years, a spare exhaust system. The original engine includes new 0.5mm over pistons (not installed), and probably needs a crank rebuild to renew the seals.
Anyone interested?
I want to sell it as a complete collection, and I don't want to have to package it for shipping, so you'd need to come to Oregon to get it.

Economics and Human Biology is devoted to the exploration of the effect of socio-economic processes on human beings as biological organisms. Research covered in this (quarterly) interdisciplinary journal is not bound by temporal or geographic limitations.
Themes include:
- The impact of socio-economic processes, such as industrialization, urbanization, agricultural policy, technological change and commercialization and the degree of penetration of the world food system on biological welfare and health outcomes.
- The effects of government intervention programs, as well as macroeconomic and public health policy on the human organism at either the individual or the population level.
- Feedback effects from human biological outcomes to economic growth at the national, regional and local levels insofar as healthier individuals invariably lead longer more creative and more productive lives, influencing thereby the course of economic development.
- The complex symbiotic relationship between such anthropometric...

Is Christopher Nolan's Inception a masterpiece, drivel, too confusing?
VinnyB What's crazy, Ms. Brown, is why two respected journalists would waste their time on this drivel.
Old English dreflian "to dribble or run at the nose, slobber," from Proto-Germanic *drablojanan, from PIE *dher- "to make muddy." Meaning "to speak nonsense" is mid-14c. Related: Driveling, drivelling.
early 14c., drevel "saliva, slaver," from drivel (v.). Meaning "idiotic speech or writing" is from 1852.

I never replaced the chain. the cassette autoshifts when theres too much load on it, and I have a feeling that the chain is so freakin stretched it isn't even funny (though I haven't measured it). I'm going to replace the whole shebang, and I was wondering if I should replace the chainrings also. If it makes a difference, its an ultegra cassette, shimano chain, 105 crank and rings, and very old dura-ace shifters.

SLAC is facing budget cuts, layoffs

From the Director's meeting on Monday:
"...It pains me greatly that at a time when particle physics needs to be ever more international, the political process in the U.S. has resulted in real damage to the relationships with our international partners. ..."
(complete speach can be found at: Web Link)
Our elected leaders, especially those from the Bay Area, have shown a firm lack of leadership and a failure to deliver.

So it was not political when SLAC openly announced a policy of refusing any defense related work? It was not political when Sydney used his office to oppose the US foreign policy? Get real.

Both the Democrats and Republicans had NSF and DOE budget increases planned in their federal budgets this year. We in the national lab community were pretty excited. Then they fought over unrelated parts of the budgets and eventually both sides seemed to forget about science, despite it being one of the few areas where both sides agreed. This cut is essentially a giant, ludicrous clerical error. They forgot about us. Each side is equally guilty. Blame the way the American government works.

Hey, Berklab boy, What have you done since Teller died? And what was Teller's attitude about national defense? Whose bread I eat, his song I sing.

Thread: On my way hopefully.
November 27th, 2009 #1
On my way hopefully.
Hey my names James and i'm getting on a bit now and i'm now 20! But i have been looking through these forums since i was 15 but always felt very intimidated by the talent found here and i still am but its time for a hunk of action!
But recently i've just made a huge decision and left my animation course at university to take illustration because its what i should of taken since its my true passion.
So enough about me i was hoping i could get some help off you guys and gals to help me on my long journey to were i want to be. I'll keep the thread updated as much as i can and it will hopefully encourage me to be more productive as well.
One final thing i must say is i was also intimidated by something else but it wasn't a bunch of talented people this time it was the program called photoshop so i've just recently started using it because i do like digital media and i really feel as though i need a go grasp on it since its so widely used today as well so my digital pieces are quite experimental.
Thank you.

December 2nd, 2009 #6
@suman gv Cheers, well i was scared of it if i'm honest then i started learning Maya and then i didn't have much time for my 2d art, but now i do! Just experiment around a bit it seems to be a lot more user friendly than maya.
Here's some super hero stuff, first off was just for fun when it popped into my head. The second was for decorating the first years class room, pencil, inks and final digital version which was then put onto foam board and cut out with a Gotham city background. An finally this sketch was also for fun because i have this theory that Lex Luther actually hates superman for his hair because Lex was cursed to be bald forever!

The Hulk/Spiderman one made me lol.
Definitely get in some anatomy studies and stuff. The pic that's the thumbnail shows a lot more of the messy-but-good thing that is popular around here. ( I don't really understand art terms...still.)
I use MSPaint.
January 22nd, 2010 #11
@Kaileighblue Thanks, the comic book drawings are rather old. The reason why my photoshop work is messy is because i've only just started to use photoshop and i'm still trying to figure out how to define images along with my artistic knowledge as well.
Alright so i've mainly been busy looking for work so i can study illustration but i've managed to make time to keep going. Reason there's only one hand study is because i had to go before i got to do anymore and i was in the mood for hands!

Photographing Drawings
I'm a long time lurker on this forum and for the most part I was fine reading the posts and browsing the sketchbooks for quick fixes of motivation. However, I've wanted to start a sketchbook of my own for a couple of month now but I don't have a scanner.
What I do have though, is access to three cameras, and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on photographing pencil/pen drawings.
Things like how to position them and on what background? What light source to use and in what angle so there is no shine? What camera setting should I use? Flash or no flash?
If it helps you these are the camera names:
1. A simple digital point and shoot camera "Canon S90"
2. A "Canon EOS 40D" with a 55mm lens that came with the camera.
3.A "Canon 5D Mark 2" with a 24-105mm Macro 0.45m lens.
Also the extra lenses are:
1. "Canon" Macro EF-S 60mm lens.
2. "Canon" Macro 100mm lens
3. Canon 85mm lens
I have a stand so stability isn't a problem, and I know I should experiment and just find out on my own, but I was wondering if anyone with some past experience with this could share some simple tips before I start.
Thank you.
(Was gonna post this on the photography forum but it seemed kinda dead with only four topics in it...)

I did a fair bit of copystand work back in the day. You want to light from the sides to avoid hotspots. Preferably from both sides at once. Flash will probably not be your best option. A good directional desk lamp on either side, far back enough to avoid making a spot anywhere. Try to align the camera and the artwork as much as possible. If either is tilted, you get a keystoning effect (which also distorts your drawing).
Or, if none of that is possible, just pop away and experiment for a while and throw away the failures. Electrons are cheap.
I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).
March 14th, 2013 #4
Follow Stoat's advice on lighting and camera/art alignment.
You can also take your rig outside for light, though not as convenient.
I too have done my fair share of copy work on transparency film, both 35mm and 4x5 with a view camera, using strobes for light.
You have everything that you need, minus the lights, maybe.
I'd use the 60mm macro, it'll get you in closer than the 100. Since both the 60 and 100 are probably true macros, there probably also flat-field lenses as well, which means you won't have to worry about lens barrel distorted images (curved lines near the periphery). It's great you have the copy stand available, too. Let's hope it extends high enough for your larger paper sizes.
Good luck.

Thank you very much.
I'll gather a few lamps from the house and give it a try.
@bill618 The largest size I have is A3 so it shouldn't be a problem. I'll start from the 60mm and see how they turn out.

On their way to an NBA title last season, the Miami Heat avoided an early scare and eliminated the Indiana Pacers in the second round. In their first meeting since that series, the Heat will try to snap the Pacers' longest home winning streak in nearly three years Tuesday night. Miami trailed Indiana 2-1 in an Eastern Conference semifinal series in 2012 before outscoring the Pacers by an average of 17.3 points while reeling off three wins in a row - two in Indianapolis. Now, the Heat (23-9) are looking to end Indiana's seven-game home winning streak, the club's longest since an eight-game run Feb. 27-March 30, 2010. Miami is 9-35 in Indianapolis during the regular season and just 7-6 on the road this season heading into its second six-game road trip of 2012-13. The team went 4-2 during the previous one Nov. 9-17. "We're going to see where we're at," said Chris Bosh, who missed all but Game 1 of the playoff series versus Indiana due to an abdominal strain.

Women make up the vast majority of Hospice Registered Nurses in the United States. The average pay in this industry is approximately $28.55 per hour. Pay ranges from $23.05 per hour on the low end to $36.73 on the high end. Compensation for this group is mainly affected by geography, but experience level and the specific company are influential factors as well. Most workers in this position report high levels of job satisfaction. Health benefits are not claimed by all — about one in four lack any form of coverage — but a fair number have medical insurance, and more than half have dental, too. The information for this rundown comes from respondents who completed PayScale's salary questionnaire.

A hospice registered nurse (RN) works with patients and families facing terminal illness. They work as part of an interdisciplinary team that creates and implements a care plan. They are responsible for the coordination, documentation, and communication of care with the patient and their family, as well as the physician and hospice team. Aside from participating in the care of the patient, they may also need to attend meetings, workshops, in-services, and reviews as dictated by their agency or hospital.Read More...
Hospice registered nurses may work a variety of hours, including during weekends and evenings; they may work or be on call during holidays. Hospice registered nurses are often required to travel to their patients and perform their duties in the patient's home; because of this, they must have their own transportation to get to and from appointments. Most employers also require that their hospice registered nurses have a valid driver's license and at least the state-minimum automobile insurance.
Hospice registered nurses are required to have a registered nurse license in their state, as well as completion of a nursing degree. They are typically required to have some experience with geriatrics as a hospice nurse or as a professional nurse elsewhere; they also must have knowledge of the hospice care program and their role in it. In addition, they often must meet requirements regarding annual continuing education hours and CPR certification.
VITAS Innovative Hospice Care, Gentiva Health Services, Inc., Gentiva, Home Health and Hospice Care, and Seasons Hospice are some prominent firms with considerable interest in employing a large team of Hospice Registered Nurses. Seasons Hospice leads the field in terms of pay, with a median salary of $65K. Other leaders in compensation levels are Heartland Hospice at $64K, Gentiva Health Services, Inc. at $63K, and Home Health and Hospice Care, where Hospice Registered Nurses annually earn $62K.
Gentiva doles out the lowest salaries in town — median pay is $60K — not to mention workers can only make as much as $76K and scope of pay is rather limited. A few other companies with smaller-than-average paychecks include VITAS Innovative Hospice Care ($61K), VNA Healthcare ($62K), and Home Health and Hospice Care ($62K).
Hospice Registered Nurses report using a wide range of professional skills. Most notably, skills in Triage, Case Management, Palliative Care, and Critical Care are correlated to pay that is above average. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Wound Care. Those proficient in Hospice are, more often than not, also skilled in Home Health/Home Care.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
For Hospice Registered Nurses, experience does not seem to be a major factor in determining pay. The average worker who claims fewer than five years of experience earns around $56K. In contrast, however, individuals who report five to 10 years in this occupation see a much larger median of $60K. Hospice Registered Nurses see a median salary of $62K after reaching one to two decades on the job. Hospice Registered Nurses who have acquired more than two decades of experience generally do see greater compensation; their average income is approximately $64K.

ATLANTA — The Georgia Tech defense has a readily identifiable problem. The Yellow Jackets have been excessively permissive at the start of the past four games.
However, this is not a problem with a simple remedy.
"You've just got to do it," defensive coordinator Ted Roof said. "If I had a magic pill or a magic answer, I'd have already done it. But you've just got to do it."
On Saturday, BYU scored on four of its first five possessions to take a 24-10 lead that led to the Jackets' third consecutive loss.
Against Miami, the Hurricanes raced 73 yards in two plays to tie the score on their opening drive, precipitating an offensive flurry that would result in an ACC-record 10.4 yards-per-play average. Virginia Tech took a 14-0 first-half lead en route to its 17-10 win. North Carolina jumped to a 13-0 lead before the Jackets rallied in Tech's most recent win.
"We've just got to get the motor going from the start," defensive backs coach Joe Speed said. "I don't know the magic formula, but as soon as that whistle sounds, we need to get out of the gate fast."
In six first quarters this season, Tech has outscored the opposition 62-48. However, excluding the opener against Elon, it's 48-34 in the opposition's favor.
Today may start tamely. Syracuse, the Jackets' opponent, has been outscored 41-30 this season. The Orange have been shut out in the first quarter in four of their six games.
The first-quarter goings-on are no small matter. Under coach Paul Johnson, the Jackets are 27-6 when leading after the first quarter and 7-18 when trailing after the first 15 minutes.
"We've got to make plays," linebackers coach Andy McCollum said. "One thing we've got to keep doing that as a whole, as a unit, not just (the linebackers), is quit missing tackles and make plays."
Against BYU, a handful of changes turned around Tech's defense in the second half. At halftime, Roof was able to adjust to an unexpected wrinkle in the Cougars' game plan. Backups sent into the game responded favorably. Roof also made more aggressive calls, sending more players at quarterback Taysom Hill. After halftime, BYU punted on its first five possessions, four times going three-and-out, and scored one offensive touchdown.
"I think we're starting to get it to click," said cornerback Louis Young, who rebounded from a forgettable first half against BYU to play more effectively in the second. "(Tuesday) was a good practice, and I think the second half of last week was a turning point for us in the right direction defensively."
While not prescribing magic pills, defensive coaches have shown players their mistakes while also accentuating positive plays, a net effect, Roof said, of "here's what happens when we do (play well); here's what happens when we don't."
Nose tackle Adam Gotsis said that the game plan for the Orange could help Tech's slow-start bug.
"We're mixing it up a bit this week," Gotsis said. "We're just going to see what happens. We have to change something."
Beno, Bailey, Green out: Offensive tackles Ray Beno and Morgan Bailey and defensive lineman Shawn Green were ruled out of Saturday's game with injuries. At offensive tackle, the likely starters are Will Jackson and either Chase Roberts or Chamberlain. If it's Roberts, he would make his first career start.
