Watch That Man: David Bowie, Movie Star
See three or more films and save with our Discount Package! Giveaways throughout the week!
With a new album and a sold-out museum exhibition in London (sure to travel), one of the ultimate icons of rock is back—call 2013 the Year of David Bowie. In honor of the singer-songwriter's genius for shapeshifting, we present a retrospective of his finest work on the big screen—plus special rarities from the BBC archives. Series programmed by Gavin Smith.
Absolute Beginners
A cameo-packed kaleidoscopic musical pastiche in which a teenage photographer pursues his elusive dream girl through the bohemian scene of late 1950s London, with Bowie as the smooth-talking advertising exec who offers to get him into the big time.
In this BBC-TV adaptation of Bertolt Brecht's first play, Bowie is debauched artist-poet Baal, who defies bourgeois society and roams the countryside womanizing, brawling and, finally, committing murder.
Bowie costars in this biopic about painter Jean-Michel Basquiat (Jeffrey Wright), playing the artist's friend and collaborator Andy Warhol in a performance widely hailed as the definitive onscreen incarnation of Warhol.
Christiane F
Special Event: afterparty with DJ at August 6 screening! A co-presentation with Viva Radio and New Wave.
A rare screening of the harrowing true story of a 13-year-old Berlin girl's heroin-addicted hell, featuring a soundtrack of songs from Bowie's 1977-79 Berlin phase—plus, when Christiane (Natja Brunckhorst) attends a Bowie concert, a stunning live performance of "Station to Station."
Cracked Actor
Screening as a free bonus with David Bowie: The Music Videos 1979 - 2013 and Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars!
A candid, haunting and ultra-rare documentary portrait shot during the 1974 Diamond Dogs tour featuring much behind the scenes footage that reveal Bowie's fragile mental state as well as live performances of nine songs.
David Bowie: The Music Videos 1979 – 2013
Nine David Bowie music videos screen with Alan Yentob's Cracked Actor (1975), a candid, haunting and ultra-rare documentary portrait shot during the 1974 Diamond Dogs tour.
Five Years + Reality
Free screening! Reality director Steven Lippman in person for Q&A!
A treasure trove of rare and unseen footage, this close-up look at Bowie is a crash course for the ravers with material culled from archives all over the world. Presented by BBC Worldwide / Showtime. Screening with Reality (Steven Lippman, 2003, 28m).
The Hunger
Vampire lovers Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie stalk New York's downtown club scene in search of fresh blood (watch out for Willem Dafoe). Bowie starts aging rapidly—paging Dr. Sarandon!
Just a Gigolo
Producer and co-writer Joshua Sinclair in person for Q&A at August 7 screening!
An ironic picaresque set amidst the decadent demimonde and political ferment of Weimar Germany, the film details the misfortunes of a Prussian officer (Bowie) reduced to working as a paid escort to make ends meet.
Family Film! Special ticket price: $6 for everyone!
In Jim Henson's live-action and puppet fairy tale fantasy, Bowie's Jareth, the villainous Goblin King, tempts and torments Jennifer Connelly, who must negotiate an otherworldly labyrinth to rescue her baby brother.
The Man Who Fell to Earth
Bowie's made his indelible screen debut as an extraterrestrial who builds a billion-dollar corporate empire and creates a private space program to save his dying home world, but is undone by earthly emotional attachments and the machinations of a shadowy syndicate.
Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence
The conflicting cultural imperatives and repressions of East and West collide with tragic consequences in a Japanese POW camp as an unspoken fatal attraction develops between British officer Bowie and camp commander Ryuichi Sakamoto.
The Prestige
Nolan insisted that only Bowie could play the pivotal part of legendary real-life inventor Nicola Tesla in this fantasy thriller about two rival 19th-century magicians (Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale) who compete over an astounding magic trick made possible by the scientist's invention.
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
Capturing 16 numbers from the 1973 Aladdin Sane UK tour, rock doc vet Pennebaker shoots straight with minimal behind-the-scenes action, and he only has eyes for Bowie (and guitarist Mick Ronson). Screening with: Cracked Actor (Alan Yentob, 1975).

5.0 stars 57 totalReview David Van Sant
Posted by Brad
David Van Sant is very knowledgeable and experienced in Personal Injury Law. He has an incredible grasp of the operations of the different insurance companies. His main concern from day one was for me getting the proper treatment and regaining my health. David Van Sant has been available for questions and to hear my concerns at all times. I highly recommend David Van Sant and his firm, and would not hesitate working with him again.
Posted by Rebecca
After suffering a serious injury, David, Beau and Jennifer were a pleasure to work with. They were able to assist me with the medicals bills and resolved my claim quickly. The result was nothing short of amazing! I would recommend Van Sant Law to anyone who has been involved in an accident.
Posted by a client
I am extremely grateful for the professionalism and graciousness exhibited on my behalf. I hope not to be involved in another accident, but if so, I will contact David Van Sant after contacting the police. Thanks again for the tremendous support!

Did an outstanding job!!! I would recommend him and def use him again. David did a great job and was available at all times during the day to answer my questions. He exceeded my expectations.
Posted by Jeff
David handled my lawsuit after a back injury caused by an auto mobile accident. David and his team handled everything in a very professional manner. David clearly communicated what to expect in the process during our initial meeting. David and his team always got me the medical services needed, and handled all the cumbersome paperwork. At any time during the process I could always reach out to David or his staff and expect a prompt answer. Due to the firms help my back feels better than it has since the accident. I'd highly recommend David and his firm.
Posted by Emily Wheeler
I am 100% satisfied with David and his company's handling of my case. The insurance company did not want to pay for my numerous injuries but Mr. Van Sant worked hard and got me a very generous settlement. All his employees are well mannered, a pleasure to work with, and I'm impressed with the work they do. If, God forbid, I'm in another accident, I'm calling his office ASAP. Thank you for working hard for me!

He kept me informed during the entire process and settled me case favorably! Every time we spoke he sounded truly interested, I never felt like just a name on a list of clients and going through my first accident that was a huge help!
Posted by Marcus
David Van Sant represented me for a personal injury claim (car accident). It was my first and only lawsuit which David and his staff were very dependable, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process from beginning to end. He and his staff were always quick to respond to my phone calls and emails. I am very happy with the results of my case and will have him represent me in the future if I ever need him. Definitely recommend him.
Posted by michael
David Van Sant worked very hard for me. Without him I may have never of seen anything from my crash. His team made it a priority that I was treated right and fair.
Posted by Frank
I was in a car accident and needed a dedicated attorney to defend my rights as an injured person. Van Sant Law was attentive and direct in my defense, producing a quick claim and settlement. I really appreciate the approachable nature of Van Sant Law, as well as the open line of communication that was maintained. Hoping the need never rises, I would highly recommend this firm to anyone requiring assistance.

Friday, April 19, 2013
SALEM (AP) — A judge in Oregon noticed an unexpected glow on a juror's chest while the courtroom lights were dimmed during video evidence in an armed-robbery trial.
The juror, it seemed, was texting.
Marion County Circuit Judge Dennis Graves cleared the courtroom and excused all jurors except Benjamin Kohler, 26. The Marion County Sheriff's Office said Kohler couldn't explain his actions.
Jurors in Oregon are given explicit instructions not to use cellphones in court.
Graves held Kohler in contempt, and Kohler spent most of Tuesday and Wednesday in the county jail. He was released Wednesday night.
An alternate juror took his place. Sheriff's spokesman Don Thomson said the trial ended Thursday with the defendant found guilty.

Boston Bruins forward Shawn Thornton was suspended for 15 games without pay the NHL on Saturday for punching and injuring unsuspecting Pittsburgh defenseman Brooks Orpik.
"It says volumes about getting that kind of play out of the game," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said. "I think it's a pretty strong message."
Thornton went after Orpik during a stoppage in play Dec. 7, slew-footing him to the ice and punching him twice. Orpik sustained a concussion and was taken off the ice on a stretcher. Earlier, Orpik hit Boston's Loui Eriksson, knocking him out of the game with a concussion.
Thornton was assessed a match penalty.
Orpik hasn't played since the game.
Toronto Maple Leafs forward David Clarkson was suspended for two games without pay by the NHL for an illegal check to St. Louis forward Vladimir Sobotka's head during a game Thursday. …
Pittsburgh defenseman Deryk Engelland was ejected from Saturday's 4-1 win against Detroit because of an illegal hit to the head on forward Justin Abdelkader late in the first period. …
Phoenix Coyotes captain Shane Doan still doesn't know what made him so sick for the past 10 days, but he's responding to medicine and starting to feel better. …
Edmonton traded goalie Jason LaBarbera, a former King, to Chicago for future considerations.

What do you get when you cross Neopets and Puzzle Quest? You get a lot of people who have devoted their lives to avoiding the weird virtual pet website to begrudgingly pledge to play a Neopets game, that's what.
Capcom and Infinite Interactive are teaming up to deliver Neopets Puzzle Adventure, a game that combines the, ahem, "stickiest site on the web" with the RPG/puzzle trappings of everyone's favorite RPG/puzzle game, Puzzle Quest. That means instead of creating a warrior, you'll be selecting a Schmoonie. You'll choose both the gender and color for your Neopet, which can be one of 12 varieties. The gender and color choice has an impact on your starting stats, so a female is faster than the male version, purple Neopets may get a strength bonus, and so on. You'll also be able to equip items, like a sword or "chili chucks," which are nunchucks made out of chili peppers. The items have abilities in combat and appear to perform as a spell that doesn't require you to have any mana.
The spells of Puzzle Quest have been replaced by petpets, which are the creatures that your Neopets keep… as pets. Apparently in the world of Neopets, even Neopets' petpets can have pets, which are called petpetpets, naturally. Upon learning this, my head started pounding and I had to sit down and slam a nice, stiff drink before continuing. If you need to do the same now, don't worry. I'll wait for you to get back.
OK, better? Let's continue. Petpets are the game's spells, and can have a variety of effects. There will be 150 of them in the game, and you can take five of them into battle. The battles function much like they do in Puzzle Quest, with one major difference. Instead of playing Bejeweled, you're playing Othello, or Reversi, if you want to keep things brand-free. So you take turns with your opponent, slapping tokens on the board to claim spaces. The petpets can help you gain an advantage, but you'll need to collect colored spaces on the board to power their attacks, much like the different gems in Puzzle Quest give you mana of different colors.
From there, the rest of the game's systems can be described as "it's like it was in Puzzle Quest, except X," where X is a different minigame or slightly altered process from the original game. It has a big overworld map, it has quests, you can train your petpets to attack more efficiently, and you can combine items to forge new, better items. It's straightforward, and it also looks like it's pretty awesome.
Neopets Puzzle Adventure is currently slated to hit the PC, Wii, and DS. The Wii will have local multiplayer, while the PC and DS will let you battle online. The game will also tie into the Neopets website, so if you're a fiend for those Neopets, you can earn codes in these games that will unlock exclusive gear.
This whole thing freaks me out. I know I want to play it, but what if I get sucked into the frightening, Nickelodeon-owned world of Neopets in the process? It's like Capcom came out and said "we're merging Scientology with Puzzle Quest." I know I want to play, but is the possibility of total brainwashing worth the risk?

continued "We are a suburban town evolving into the 21st century," he said. "I know we're not in the horse and buggy days, but residents I've heard from want a more hamlet style."
Board members said that style is being met with the incorporation of "complete streets" and other measures for making the downtown more pedestrian-friendly to encourage people to live and shop there.
Before the vote, the board decided to exempt the proposed Malta Crossings mixed-use project on Route 9 from the new zoning because it already has several town approvals. Its buildings will need to meet the new architectural standards, though, and the exemptions will only be good for the next five years.
Local business leaders, including the Saratoga County Chamber of Commerce, are pleased with the new zoning law.
"This will be a brand new connection to Malta," said Chamber President Todd Shimkus. "This will set a model for other communities across New York State. I am happy to be here in Malta: the center of the universe."
The town's previous zoning code, which was adopted in 2005, allowed high-density downtown development. Negative public reaction to the five-story Ellsworth Commons apartment-commercial project on Route 9 led to a zoning review.
The new code also brings zoning into compliance with the downtown master plan the Town Board adopted in 2011, which called for scaling back the size of new downtown buildings.
Tozzi said in order to facilitate the new form-based code zoning, a daylong workshop will be held in March to help people understand the new process.

The Blessing and Suffering of the Godly
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1Blessed is he who considers the poor;
The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.
2The Lord will preserve him and keep him alive,
And he will be blessed on the earth;
#Ps. 27:12You will not deliver him to the will of his enemies.
3The Lord will strengthen him on his bed of illness;
You will sustain him on his sickbed.
4I said, "Lord, be merciful to me;
#Ps. 6:2Ps 103:3Ps 147:3Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You."
5My enemies speak evil of me:
"When will he die, and his name perish?"
6And if he comes to see me, he speaks lies;
His heart gathers iniquity to itself;
When he goes out, he tells it.
7All who hate me whisper together against me;
Against me they devise my hurt.
8"An evil disease," they say, "clings to him.
And now that he lies down, he will rise up no more."

these are just collected thoughts; always remember that I have no idea what I'm doing
CSS is one of the great fixtures of modern technology, the reason why the internet has style, and the original raison d'être of jQuery, the most popular Javascript framework. Learning how to write CSS is part of the hallowed tradition of entering the 'web design' profession.
You'll also learn something like HTML, and probably Javascript or PHP. You'll find that SVG and JSON are kind of like HTML - they hold data - and Javascript, PHP, Java, C++, and the rest of a big family of programming languages are all pretty similar.
But you'll never learn anything quite similar to CSS. It's like the lonesome george of stylesheet languages, the only of its kind. When you think about designing a web page, CSS is the only option.
This is not a critique of CSS; rather it is just trying to point out things about CSS that are 'unusual'. Since it is the only one of its species, we rarely think about the CSS that could have been, or the CSS alternative that could be - 'advanced CSS' is always about designing with CSS rather than designing CSS itself. So, the compromises that CSS makes seem too much like natural laws.
style sheets constitute a wormhole into unspeakable universes -Dr. James D. Mason
Here's the point where the critic shouts that there are alternatives - what about SASS, less.js, or stylus?
No; these are languages that add features to CSS, or allow for terse syntax. Accretion is not innovation, and all of the CSS-like languages carry the essential thesis of CSS unmodified.
CSS, for a number of reasons, is intriguing, annoying, and scary.
Scary not because of a lack in its design or implementation, which both have been fine-tuned over many years of dedication. Scary because the customs of CSS have been so strongly ingrained that we can't think about other worlds.
A long and excellent read on the topic is Håkon Wium Lie's Phd thesis: it summarizes the evolution of CSS alongside many other standards that were considered for its place.
CSS is about selectors. It didn't have to be this way. DSSSL, for instance, supported something like
(element NOTE
(if (not (node-list-empty? (attribute "WARNING")))
In which the syntax includes what we might call 'actual programming' rather than selectors. The CSS, of course would be something like
Is this good? In one sense, yes - it allows for compact rules, and selectors can be highly optimized by browsers, so that if you have lots of elements shuffling on and off-screen, they can be styled quickly.
But, in another sense selector-heavy syntax is kind of unusual - it introduces
a lot of new grammars, like media queries, combinators, attribute selectors,
pseudoelements, pseudoselectors, even pseudo-logic like
These selectors are doing logic - they're asking the 'selector engine' to
do logic - but staying one large hop away from 'actual programming'.
This means that the responsibility and possibility for optimization is almost completely in the hands of the person implementing the selector engine, and only minimally in the hands of those using selectors. Even in a language like SQL, in which you are primarily using queries that are optimized by a query engine, your choices clearly influence how the engine works. In CSS, much less.
CSS is static and anonymous. Let's say, for instance, you have a page like
a.link { color: red; }
Foo
So, here we have two levels of control: the browser sets one level of styles - that beautiful Times New Roman font, blue link color, and nice big underlines to make links look clickable. Then, you override that blue color and turn the links on the page red, overriding the link color but letting the rest of the browser's choices cascade.
Now, when people click the link, you want all links to change to green. In jQuery, that'd roughly look like:
$('a.link').click(function() {
$('a.link').css('color', 'green');
return false;
Now we have three levels of control. You see, jQuery doesn't change the style
in the page - on the top of the page, the style
color: red is still in
effect. New links added to the page with Javascript will still be red.
What jQuery does is it selects all of the elements that match the
selector, and sets an inline style
on each element.
There is a CSS object model that nobody uses and everyone is very afraid of. Part of that reason is that specificity and the 'inner workings' of CSS are opaque to the client, by design.
What's the point? Part of it is that 'inline styles' are, like
 tags
well-known 'bad practices', but absolutely everyone uses them indirectly
all the time with Javascript.
Part of it is that the selector-heavy model of CSS and related convoluted system of accessing 'styles as objects or things' means that, despite the proliferation of the so-called dynamic web, basically nobody dynamically changes CSS after initial pageload.
Imagine, for instance, something like
%linkstyle a.link { color: red; }
Foo
$('a.link').click(function() {
styles.linkstyle.color = 'blue';
Faux-bolted-on-poorly-concepted 'named styles'. Discuss.
There are alternatives, like relative layout, flow layout, et cetera.
It's 2012 and it's still tricky to make columns on a web page. Or a vertically centered flexible-height box. CSS grid systems put a band-aid on the problem while still hacking together elements that are only pixels away from falling down a level and ruining the illusion.
The original design of CSS took into consideration slow internet connections, which meant that content slowly streamed into web pages. Which I am old enough to remember, embarrassingly. But this isn't all.
/* happens as content enters the page */
a { color: blue; }
/* happens on a user action */
a:hover { color: red; }
/* and now that happens at the end of a transition */
a { transition-property: color; transition-duration: 5s; }
What's the point? Well, part of it is that these 'dynamic' parts of CSS
overlap with Javascript. For instance, the
:hover pseudo-class is equivalent
function() {
$(this).css('color', 'red');
function() {
$(this).css('color', 'blue');
The word 'selector' isn't really used much elsewhere, and keeping it isolated in CSS-land limits our ability to think about it relative to other concepts.
Selectors are match statements, like regular expressions or search terms. Their closest cousin might be XPath, a selector system for all XML documents.
Could CSS selectors be mixed with regexes, so one could have a style like
h[1-3] { }
instead of specifying each manually?
CSS doesn't have relative elements because it's designed to be constantly-applied to web pages that load slowly on early-90s internet connections.
One of the interesting bits about the alternatives to CSS that didn't make the cut is that they supported something like
#foo {
text-size: 10px;
#foo .bar {
text-size: enclosing - 2px;
(this example is adapted from P94, a previous stylesheet language)
What's interesting about this? Well, that less, sass, and all of the CSS pre-processors in the world can't replicate it; they all compile to CSS which purposefully doesn't have this sense of context for selectors.
Why? Because CSS is designed to be constantly consistent - if you can reference, for instance, the fact that a rule contains an element, like
#foo has-child(div) {
text-size: 9px;
Then the rendering of the page changes as the page loads - if

 contains
plenty of text, and then finally a

, it has to be re-layed out
with the rest of the page.
One of the criticism of CSS from the XML camp is that it isn't XML. It'd be possible to express CSS in XML or JSON: in fact, one of Jeffrey Warren's projects, Cartagen, implemented a language called GSS which is similar to MapBox's Carto but is valid JSON.
A few other half-finished efforts exist.
The question about this is really about how you imagine stylesheet languages. They are, in my eyes, data, and thus could benefit from being mungable. And yet they're far from that - CSS parsers in browsers aren't accessible programmatically and those outside of browsers come up with their own internal data representation.
The divorce of CSS from more general data languages is possibly a big loss; you can't use schemas like JSON schema to validate it; you can't easily perform 'data analysis' on it.
The interfaces for it are a little sketchy, but it's very possible:
In particular, Mutation events have been proposed, accepted, deprecated, and now on the path to replacement with DOM4 Mutation Observers. It's all very sketchy and possibly it's just better to have a manual-repaint system.
But, the fact of the matter is that it's technically possible to implement cascading in user-land and thus do some things with it that CSS specifically prohibits, like custom properties, relative measures, that can't be implemented with simple pre-processors.
The CSS Object Model is perhaps the epicenter of one certain kind of CSS loathing. It's pretty unhelpful - provides no way to parse CSS without applying it to page contents, and is implemented differently in each browser.
But the most annoying bit of the object model is how it handles unknown values. It creates a sort of data structure for styles:
document.styleSheets = [
{ rules: [{ cssText: '#foo { color: red; }',
style: {
0: 'color', color: 'red'
Now in Javascript-land we have the concept of polyfills -
bits of 'user-land' Javascript that implement technologies not implemented
by certain browsers. For instance, you can include a
indexOf polyfill,
and get the method in the backwards Internet Explorer browser. This is
because Javascript prototypes are modifiable and very few of its
other constructs are not modifiable (for instance, operators).
But CSS is miles away from this. Let's say you're in IE and you specify:
#foo {
text-shadow:1px 1px 1px #000;
This disappears. In W3C terminology, unknown properties are ignored, so
it's absolutely impossible to build a polyfill for new properties in older
browsers. And, even more silly than that, unknown values are not ignored,
but are represented as a
CSS_UNKNOWN value, completely inaccessible except
through the unparsed cssText value.
This means that tremendously cool code like Lea Verou's -prefix-free has to rely on regular expression replacement of text chunks rather than the CSS parser built into every browser.
It's unclear what the path forward here is - it would certainly be interesting if the W3C revises the CSSOM into something more useful for experimentation. And I think that a Javascript stylesheet implementation is roughly possible and could be extremely interesting in certain cases.

well, I like these works. I like the medieval sword warrior, I think you could work a little more on the lines, change them, play with them. Keep posting and don't go down if some critic could be not so good, heavy critics are better to improve!
please, comment and critic my work in progress HERE thank you in advance!

and there is no better criticus then yourself.
thanks for the crit, I'll be doing a lot more experimenting since short.
Good, you have a good luck with your father, use his talent and experience, but I'm sure you are already doing it! I subscribed your SB, so keep posting and I'll comment your works!
Thank you for your comment at my WIP, I'll try to solve the problems with lights and other things!

figure drawing class is starting slow, so here's some dribbling to keep this updated.
retarde would be an understatement.
still old stuff, don't have time to even upload new stuff, or even make new stuf
I haven't drew in 3 days, been away most of the time, and when I do have time, I'm so fucking tired. I can't progress no more. I feel retarded and suicidal, not really though, I don't like to even watch sketchbooks atm
and You could say I'm in love. maybe that has something to do it.
plss no comments til I update more. but if you can't resist your 'we are only here to help you!' mentality go ahead. I'm tougher to myself atm than anyone could be.
The Long Winters rock ass!
time to scan something in
selection of sketches made the last month
this is mostly from my head or demi-improvised, waiting at the bus, relaxing on the bus, or just sitting on the couch with a magazine in front of me.
this update sucks, but I need to post something
edit: oh yeah C&C welcome
good a mid term jury today, and they were very positive about me! yay!
here's some sketches from that lousy sketchbook.
last page is a WIP (made after watching nic's tut. )
enjoy or not and C&C welcome. ask if there are question's.
ps: Goodnight Electric rocks!

Pretty creative stuff here. Your characters look great, but the figures and proportions are somewhat off. And with figure drawing and life study classes, you should be able to fix that problem within no time. Keep up the good work.
Very nice
shade! i don´t wanna be nice to you just because i get nice comments and crits from you .
but honestly you have as much talent as i have!
i show you what i like here
htis is very nic e, just sad you didn´t place it right , i like the girldrawing much!
and that pic before and after that.
my crits for now force yourslef to do as less lines as possible, while drawing from life forget construction lines , sketchy lines. get some balls while conqering the paper ! well that´s not much for me now , but i´ll keep watching your process. btw. how old are you ?
keep it up bro!
aviable for fulltime and freelance
first the replies!
envisor: working on that! have lifedrawing at school, but I can't bring those drawings with me.
katsgod: thanks
goblinshark: hay dude! I would've hated it if you didn't gave me a push or two in the right direction. I'm not sure if I completely got what you meant. more balls=more rendering? I've done some of both anyways. keep the critiques commin'! and I'm 17 already! still haven't improved much.
first drawing is made during a convention about the EU(european union)
did a bit of salaryman on the lines, they switch.
the rest are mostly photoreferenced, (I'm in there too! guess which ones)
and a bit of perspective lifedrawing, (dad's in there too)
C&C welcome!
Edit: made a little mistake to the first picture's switching, sorry, now he's last.
some mindfarts, sometimes I forget how to draw from mind, so I need to get into it again. here's the process to it. waste of paper mostly, so now back to life drawings
voila!! just a small update
getting a bit back into my regular drawing flow.
more to come, prob friday or so.some o' these are mind some referenced.
about one fifth of what i've sketched since last update.
I officially hate my scanner now.
ps: switchfoot is rockin' my teeth out.
haha rendering balls!!
sry i am somtimes bad in typing crits in english .
i like this one looking good , mybe it´s good because of the hard perspectice wich is forcing you to see and not to think much about it. i ´ve seen perpectice studies , good job, but i prefer organic things in perspectie more than stilllife with linear lines.
ok what i wanted to say is do less out lines on the forms from lif eas you already do , that´s why you usually should also do less out lines on your figures from mind.
yo keep it up!
aviable for fulltime and freelance
like I said to you in person... Really like your stuff, but who am I...
srry for anyone who's interrested in this piece of shit
been to lazy to scan and upload my drawings.
have been drawing, not improving.
bad me, need to step up with my drawings
I need to improve a lot in my current lifestyle.
the tiny painting in my sketchbook, is my gf but the scanner killed the colours and shows layers underneath.
the rest is equal crap god I'm so down atm.
Need to draw from life again, and fast
Very nice sb! it is very good to see a very good progression from the first post to the last, you have grown more confident it seems. Anyway, i think the most evident weakness you have is your lines, which are not solid enough, and it can be fix with practice. keep updating and GREAT JOB!!!!
contact: firstname.lastname@example.com
better than nothing?
@kromNz: thanks for the support, I actually did notice my bad line quality, but you just gave me a push in actually improving it. (haven't tried in these sketches yet)
I deff needed some new lifedrawing, did a bit today, i'm quite rusty.
some sketches, last one is on the bus.
note to myself on the last one: busdrawings teach you nothing,+ they make my lines even worse
looks alright
the real important thing is understanding.. not using reference
like thinking on your own i also mean understanding about the craft of drawing
how to draw volumes how to create depth n stuff
since theres noone around we can ask when we start drawing.. we lack of it ...we wont learn it from using ref but thinking about it ..
your stuff looks cool but lacks of depth and volume
keep up and u will get to it..
theres too much u dont learn from using ref.. i suggest u look for it anways
it will help improve your skills more then u can imagine
understanding = control
This sketch book is oozing with great little sketches. Keep working them and working then man, cus they are looking sweet.
C&C welcome
'Iam what Iam' - Popeye The Sailor Man
i'm quite admirable of your hard work! very nice sketches i can see your progression happening...in the last sketch, your figure at the top right is really good. I would maybe suggest spending more time on faces/heads. in some of these you really nail faces, like you understand them at that time, but then you lose them and the proportions are off.
hello shade.
good progress you're making so far
as for critique, i really think you need to draw... more often. if you can. draw as much as possible... during classes, between classes, doodle when you're bored. practice makes progress.
i think you could learn a lot from doing more finished pieces. you have a lot of sketches, a lot of partial ideas but you should try to apply those to a complete pieces. anyway.
Keep it up man.
As the pattern gets more intricate and subtle being swept along is no longer enough.

first of the repliez!
sideshowbob:thanks, I think I got that, I'll spend some more time at actually understanding that what I'm drawing, I indeed forget it a lot.
ak86: Thnks man I will
Pawl: Indeed, that occurs after periods when I draw significantly less. I'll work on it
Bunny: You are completely right! ^^" I really need to draw more. of coarse I draw more than I upload, I'm just lazy as hell when it comes to scanning my drawings, the come out sucky anyhow when I scan them D:
and thx in general I'll give the support back sooner or later.
so now the posting!
a lot of stuff happened in the meanwhile
I lost my very first girlfriend, I just got to hear that a friend o' mine has cancer and today I had to decapitate a young hare cause my cat had paralyzed it by breaking it's neck. and to make things worse, I have a myspace now. myspace.com/dovemans
I'm experimenting with electro and breakcore. but still suck at it.
the photo's are of my mural's down at the cellor of the music school wich used to be a monastry, the visual work is about creating poetry, I paired it up with to of my poems which I had to say were quite succesful. my poetry is about finding oneself in the feelings my imagery summons.
the second is a sketch I spend more time on than usual. not sure how I came to the india god theme, but I feel like doing more o' those. and aaaaargh scanner so fucking killed it!! it had a lot of subtle values. o well.
Hey shade !
The sketchbook is looking pretty good. I see tones of filled pages, and that's good.
The linework is improving more and more, but now the main thing that needs to be well handled is value. Start doing some studies of them, see how light works. And watch out when using a very very dark value. It's almost rare to have it spreading over a large area. Making so (unless the light setting is very strong) would make the drawing look flat.
So, keep working on the life drawing and take notes on what makes it different from imagination drawing.
Keep drawing monsieur !
aaargh, my sketchbook was in for evaluation. got it back today, so I'll show you the end of it(it's full) made a nice surprise end-page
and started an new sketchbook, but that's for a another day. got a haircut, and it failed miserably....
ok the things I need to focus on for the comming months are: anatomy&mind drawings upkeep, typography&graphic design in general, and as danielC pointed out to me; value!.
DanielC: thx for the visit man, if your sketchbook doesn't inspire me enough then this comment reflecting the man behind the sketches surely aspires me. I say thank you...
Wow man, nice stuffs! I like your own input in drawings from reference, and the dynamics that some sketchpages from mind have.
Please do post some of the poetry you made, I like poetry lots! On my old website you can find some of my old poetry. Beware though, a lot of it sounds kinda depressed because they were written in my depressed period
Now I know this has been said before, but I'm just going to repeat it your lines need more confidence. try using a soft pencil maybe (not mechanical), and use that to create some nice confident lines in your drawings.
The last one has some nice lines by the way, I only wish the letters "the end" would've been a bit more aligned and graphical. Cool subject by the way Me likes ^^
Well I'll be back with some more indepth crits or whatever.
Need to go to sleep and study for some "schoolexamens" ^^
How are your exams going?
P.S. I don't know how close you live to Eindhoven, but I'm organizing a sketchmeet at my (parents's) place there the 7th of july. You might want to check it out? For more info click the link "the Netherlands Sketchmeets!" in my sig.
→ Sketchbooks to check:! My Sketchbook | Marlisa | PaperX | JellevdVegt | Yngling | Merlin | ajvenema
→ The Netherlands Sketchmeets! | my website
started new sketchbook, and she and the scanner aren't exactly friends. :/
here are a few of the sketches I made in the book, was too lazy too scan them all, sorry ^^'
maybe next update.
and another thing people; BAD LINE QUALITY IS SCANNERS FAULT!! seriously.
and tomorow!! I have an entrance examination. If I fail, I can forget my studies...but I have on thing to say about the difficulty of it:.......MEH! :p
it's pretty easy, in contrast with the actual course.
ok wish me luck, or damn me for something.
nice sketcbook man. i can certainly see improvements in your work.
keep it up cos you have alot of talent.

The Redskins officially announced the hire of former Denver Broncos assistant special teams coach Keith Burns to serve as the team's new special teams coach. Burns will replace the departed Danny Smith, who coached special teams with Washington since 2004.
Burns spent the past six seasons as the No. 2 special teams coach in Denver, where he played and coached under current Redskins' head coach Mike Shanahan. The 40-year-old is a 1990 graduate of T.C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Va.
"Keith was an excellent special teams player and a strong influence in the locker room for two Super Bowl championship teams," Shanahan said in a statement. "I know our players will enjoy playing for him."
Burns will replace long-time special teams coach Smith, who left the Redskins earlier this month to become special teams coordinator in his native Pittsburgh.
In 2012, the AFC West champion Broncos boasted the NFL's second-ranked punt coverage team and the seventh-ranked kick coverage unit. Returner Trindon Holliday ranked first in kickoff return average, while also taking back a kick and a punt for touchdowns. In the conference championship loss to the Ravens, Holliday also returned a kick and a punt for touchdowns – both playoff records.
During Burns' tenure in Denver, the Broncos returned six punts and four kickoffs for touchdowns. The Redskins did not have a return go the distance last season.
Burns' hire was first reported by footballscoop.com, a website dedicated to coaching job information.

GPL Violation: Microsoft's Code Generosity with Strange Taste
Microsoft made headlines on July 20 with their release of a Hyper-V driver to the Linux kernel under GPL. Now it turns out that the driver violates the GPL free code stipulation by having a mix of proprietary and open source code.
Novell's kernel hacker and driver expert Greg Kroah-Hartman had worked with Microsoft to release the Hyper-V driver under GPLv2. Not an unusual thing for the head of the Linux Driver Project (LDP). His Linux Kernel Monkey Log may have gone into why Microsoft was compelled into the deal, but an update on the webpage points to an entry on the Linux Network Plumber website to "give a little more of the backstory of what caused me to start talking to Microsoft in the first place." Steve Hemminger, employed at network company Vyatta, hosts the Plumber website.
Hemminger congratulated Microsoft in his Plumber blog, but added that he stumbled on a Vyatta forum about the GPL components in Hyper-V and immediately informed Kroah-Hartman that "there was a problem." Kroah-Hartman then "prodded the right people" to resolve the issue. "It took longer than expected, but Microsoft finally decided to do the right thing and release the drivers," said Hemminger. Perhaps under different circumstances than were expected.
Misleading articleThe summary sentence makes it sound like what Microsoft released on July 20th violates the GPL. What really happened was they were in violation previously, and made the July 20th release so that they would be in compliance. The article title should be something like "Microsoft's Code Generosity was Catch-up Compliance". And the summary should be: "Microsoft made headlines on July 20 with their release of a Hyper-V driver to the Linux kernel under GPL. Now it turns out that they were required to do this because a previous version of this driver had a mix of proprietary and open source code."

Senator Mary Landrieu, a Democrat from Louisiana, is making the case that some "cyber" jobs need to be moved away from the Washington, D.C. area -- and to Louisiana, where those people might be physically safer.
"Those jobs can't all be based inside Washington, D.C., and Arlington, Va.," she explained to a local paper. "Some of those jobs need to be located outside the blast zone."
Landrieu did not explain what blasts she expects to hit the Washington, D.C. area, or when those blasts might hit.
Landrieu is up for reelection, which might explain why she's trying to bring some more jobs to her home state. And that she'd be willing to use whatever rhetoric necessary in order to make her case.
The Daily Advertiser reports:
U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu told the Greater Lafayette Chamber of Commerce that "cyber war is the war of the future" and banks, government agencies, electric grids, emergency response services and the military all are vulnerable to attack by hackers and tech-savvy terrorists.That could mean new jobs for Louisiana.Landrieu, D-New Orleans, said she plans to use her influence as chair of Homeland Security to "build a cyber footprint in Louisiana." She wants to move to Louisiana more governmental agencies and tech experts charged with protecting America from hackers."Those jobs can't all be based inside Washington, D.C., and Arlington, Va.," she told The Daily Advertiser later. "Some of those jobs need to be located outside the blast zone. With its technological expertise and the university here, Acadiana can help safeguard the cyber frontier."

The 6th Newsletter on Police and Human Rights arrives at a critical time in the development of police and human rights in Africa, specifically in terms of the African Commission's recent efforts to institutionalise reforms. This edition of the Newsletter covers the Resolution on the Expansion of the Mandate of the Special Rapporteur on Prisons and Conditions of Detention, police responses to terrorist threats in Niger, and the Luanda Guidelines and challenges faced by police with respect to arrest. In addition, this Newsletter also includes an article on how policing is a cross-cutting human rights matter, as well as a story on the Danish Institute for Human Rights' perspectives on police and human rights in Africa.

Following the African Commission's adoption of the Guidelines on Conditions of Arrest, Police Custody and Pre-trial Detention in Africa (Luanda Guidelines), which seek to advance a rights-based approach to pre-trial justice in Africa, APCOF associate, Kelly Stone, wrote an article on the privacy rights of women in detention, which has been published in AGenda's special edition of Women & Imprisonment in Africa journal. In the article, Stone challenges the contemporary conceptualisation of the right to privacy for women in detention for failing to unpack the complexities of power in prison, and presents the Luanda Guidelines as an important opportunity to carry forward a dignity-based approach to privacy in detention.

On Tuesday, 10 November 2015, Gun Free South Africa hosted a public seminar in partnership with APCOF and the Institute for Security Studies, to present the findings of two research studies which demonstrate that South Africa's Firearms Control Act (2000) has reduced incidents of gun homicide.
According to research presented by Dr. Richard Matzopoulos, the introduction of stricter gun legislation in 2000 is likely to be the cause for a decrease of 4,585 in the number of gun homicides across five South African cities from 2001-2005. In addition, Professor Naeemah Abrahams presented a study which demonstrated that the rate of intimate femicide dropped from four women being killed every day by an intimate partner in 1999, to three women being killed every day by an intimate partner in 2009, a decrease which she attributes to the introduction of stricter gun legislation in 2000.

To help harder-to-adopt dogs find loving homes, the Sun-News spotlights an animal in hopes of igniting a spark in the hearts of our readers. Many dogs at the Animal Service Center of the Mesilla Valley are easily overlooked. Maybe they're too big, too old or just look goofy.
Our goal is to pinpoint the character of each animal by way of photography in order to shed new light on these so-called shabby mutts.
If interested, visit the Animal Service Center at 3551 Bataan Memorial West, or call 575-382-0018. The dog featured in this photo can be adopted free.
Name: Liam
Breed: Shepherd / Heeler mix
Color: Tan, white and black
Gender : Male
Age: 1 year, 3 months
Liam has been a resident of the Animal Service Center of the Mesilla Valley for more than 300 days. Shelter staff say he is a great dog and very worthy of an even better home. He is not an alpha dog, so he would get along well with other pets. He has a lot of energy, someone looking for a hiking buddy would be a perfect match.

Metro-North President Calls Federal Report 'Troubling'
The president of New York's Metro-North Railroad called a federal report finding that the commuter service puts on-time performance above safety "deeply troubling" and vowed to make changes.
Metro-North, which serves 83 million riders annually in the New York, Connecticut and New Jersey suburbs around New York City, will improve training and track inspections, reorganize the safety department and install cameras in all trains, President Joseph Giulietti said today at a news conference at New York's Grand Central Terminal.
"Safety was not the top priority," he said. "It must be and it will be. I have a clear message for our customers and our employees: Safety must come first at Metro-North."
A Federal Railroad Administration report released today found that pressure to keep trains running on time led managers and supervisors to allow inspections, maintenance and employee training to lapse.
The report comes more than three months after a crash near the Spuyten Duyvil Station in the Bronx killed four people and injured almost 70. The incident was one of four "high-profile accidents" in 2013, the railroad administration said.
New Leader
Metro-North is operated by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which also runs New York City's subways. The agency is controlled by Governor Andrew Cuomo.
"We've been concerned about the entire mess," Cuomo, a first-term Democrat, said today at a press briefing in Manhattan. "We've changed leadership at Metro North. We're doing everything we can as quickly as we can to make it safer."
The Railroad Administration found that "a deficient safety culture" affects all facets of Metro-North, including track inspection and maintenance, operating rules and worker protections.
The agency issued recommendations, from using advanced technology to inspect tracks, to working with unions to increase the availability of off-hour maintenance time. Metro-North also must address employee fatigue and bolster training. The railroad must submit a plan to the administration within 60 days on how it will improve safety and training.
"This is a searing indictment of sustained serious safety failings," U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut said on a conference call with reporters. "It shows a litany of safety lapses rooted in bad management."
Giulietti was appointed Metro-North president Jan. 9, replacing Howard Permut, who resigned after the Dec. 1 crash in the Bronx. That incident caused the commuter railroad's first passenger deaths when a train bound for Grand Central from Poughkeepsie derailed on a 30-mile-per-hour (48 kilometer-per-hour) curve while traveling 82 mph.
Giulietti said the issues uncovered by the administration confirmed his initial assessment of Metro-North's culture and priorities. Just this week, a Metro-North worker was struck and killed by a train in East Harlem.

Can Tech Ruin the Kim Pham Murder Trial?

Dating a Mexican girl will gift you many things. You'll learn another language and inevitably get an invite to a family function, whether a wedding, a quinceañera or a carne asada Sunday. If you're not Mexican, expect everyone to talk shit about you in Spanish; if you are, expect everyone to talk shit about you in Spanish and English. But at least you'll get to take a plate of carnitas home.
She's the gorgeous gal who will only date you if your American Express is black, your Mercedes is S-Class or above, and you were in college when she was still in utero. If you're none of the above, you might've bought her a drink at Gulfstream or Charlie Palmer's, a drink she quickly drank after seeing an Irvine Co. exec sit at the table across the room from you. Don't worry: In 20 years, her daughters will be all yours.
She grew up never setting foot north of the El Toro Y unless she attended Orange County School of the Arts or one of the Catholic high schools. Her dream is to buy into one of Irvine's latest developments or—if that doesn't pan out—a condo in Rancho Mission Viejo. The only reason she's slumming it with your Garbage Grove or Anacrime self is to spite her family—but once she has shocked her family, she'll marry a Mission Viejo douchebag and live as a housewife who lunches at Fashion Island or South Coast Plaza, the farthest north she'll ever dare to go during daytime hours.
The first famous girl in Orange County culture (despite our pre-World War II agricultural dominance, our farm girls could never compete in the national consciousness with those of Wisconsin or Iowa), the beach babe has enraptured OC's male mind since the Gabrieleños were camping in Bolsa Chica. When not traveling the world doing ads for Quiksilver or Billabong, she's posing for BL!SSS and sunning across OC. Unless you're in the action-sports industry yourself, your relationship is doomed to end when she finds a skier or surfer who's better-looking than you—and you know she will.
The best part about Orange County dating? Even if you can't get any of the aforementioned honies at their prime, you'll sure as hell nail them when they graciously transition into MILF-hood. In fact, all of these archetypes, as with tributaries to the Mississippi, lead toward a river of MILFs that dominate the county dating scene: We have the randiest collection this side of a Brazzers reel. The Real Housewives of Orange County only scrapes the surface of how they roll. And because we ain't sexist, the MILF inevitably attracts gold-digging young guns looking to get their bill paid at Javier's, the Quiet Woman, Foxfire—or any bar in South County. Are those breasts real? Only one way to find out!

The Guys
You get with this guy because the prospect of going out with the next Mike Ness or Tony Kanal is exciting—and besides, you'll be on the guest list at all the shows, plus be able to get into concerts that matter due to your beloved's connections. But reality sets in fast: the grind of serving as your guy's impromptu stagehand from backyard shows to shitty South County clubs to opening at the Coach House to maybe getting a slot at an all-day festival at the Observatory or Burger Records in eight years to gigging anywhere and everywhere possible during OC Music Awards season. The absolute lack of money—and when there is money, it gets dumped into the next bad YouTube video. And he lives for NAMM. Then he takes off on tour, and you're left to ponder whether all those Instagrams of him with fans are pre- or post-coital. The tipping point comes when you have to call your mom's AAA for the umpteenth time after his band's van fails to start off I-10 outside Quartzsite.
He always dresses sharp, always desires and spends money, always volunteers for the Orange County GOP, always is a smug douche. This guy thinks President Barack Obama is the devil, illegal immigrants are ruining this country and Reagan is god—though he has no feelings whatsoever. Usually, this type is in the closet. He'll take you to Newport or Laguna for a date, with the occasional SanTana stroll to show he's hip. Unless you're also conservative, you'll dump the guy after he becomes insufferable—which will take a couple of dates.
While the gold digger is an OC girl archetype, I don't believe most women who go for older men necessarily do it for money. Sometimes, the men of OC are really boys; sometimes, you gotta swing a couple of years or decades above your generation to find true love—or at least a summer romance, or even a guy to buy you a drink for the night. As for the guys who fall under this category? Always white-collar, always wearing a watch, always old enough to remember when new televisions still came with a UHF nob. They are very full of themselves yet insecure—why else would they go out with women the age of their daughters if not to desperately try to prove how hip they remain, Rogaine be damned?
