Wow. This is tough...
With deepest respect, please rest in peace.
It is what it is. The system is getting more respect as more of the vocal online personalities start to tell us that, yes, they ACTUALLY do own one and they do ACTUALLY like it.
Disgusting or not, our hobby is now driven primarily by rabid, anonymous internet dwellers that froth and foam at the mouth over talking heads on Youtube and other venues. If the talking heads say Xbox One is now cool, then dang it, it's time to buy one or start bugging mom and dad to buy one for you. It was INSANE to see the deluge of blind PS4 support on the internet after that E3... absolutely insane. So many people ended up buying that system purely from forum frenzy and being immediately let down with the total lack of games for quite some time.
Anyway, as the Wii U picks up more "internet cred," it will continue to do better, but never great, I think.
In a way, I kind of like stuff like this: It reminds me of being a kid and that "hard-earned" sort of thing when it comes to finding certain hardware pieces. I'll never forget finding my brother a Wii during the first Christmas it was out, for example. Anyway, I traveled about 60 miles away from my house yesterday and checked every Target, Walmart, Kmart, and Gamestop along the way. Nobody had one, until, of course, the VERY last one. I ducked in the last Gamestop almost begrudgingly, and lo and behold, I got their very last one. The clerk was very surprised they had one, too!
I really like the Amiibo figures so far. I have four of them, and I definitely plan on getting more. They appeal to me as a collector and as a gamer, and I do believe that more functionality will be patched in for these little guys in the future.
Ah, the holidays.
I think this is great news for Nintendo fans and all other gamers. It's good to see your hobby doing well! And honestly, I'm not surprised. Now that the raw magic of having the PS4 and Xbox One out there in the wild has passed, it seems that people are a bit more willing to at least look at what the Wii U has to offer in contrast to the mostly similar stuff (thus far) between the other two consoles.
I'm actually not a big Bethesda fan. Anybody else out there who just couldn't get into Fallout/Skyrim? To be quite honest, I'd rather play a JRPG any day.
Some people will cry, "He's an analyst! He knows things we could never even hope to know!" To that, I nod my head slowly, but I still come up with the following:
IF the Wii U sells EXACTLY as it has been for the past month or two, then yes, Pachter will be correct. However, we all know that isn't going to happen, for better or for worse (hopefully the better!)
Also, I really don't care what kind of company insight this analyst may be privy to, but in most venues learned people are slow to make such grandiose predictions before a product has hit the market. Sports analysts love making predictions, but are humble enough to always acknowledge they could be wrong. Restaurant chains test new ideas in select states before launching nationwide, as there is no reliable way to know how well a product will be received until it is in the hands of the public.
Just my rational two cents.

Pure in Hackensack, NJGraffiti // Monday, April 20, 2015
We suggest for optimum viewing results you take some sort of hallucinogenic drug, preferably DMT, while viewing this amazing new Pure piece.
Limited Edition Silk Screen Print by Aindriais Dolan aka Pure TFPGraffiti // Tuesday, January 27, 2015
Aindriais Dolan aka Pure is part of the first wave of graffiti writers that swept New York in the late '70s and is also from a number of crews such as TFP and AOK who originated many of the funk styles you see today. Dolan has recently released a limited edition silk screen print entitled Puerta de la maquinaria de la Ayahuasca. Printed in an edition of 50, each print comes signed and numbered.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
He loves toys and fun dog games like chase and tug of war with his small dog friends. Alfie has blossomed into a completely charming, outgoing dog in the safety of our rescue. He loves everyone he meets. He also has a silly goofy side and will make you giggle with his light hearted elfin ways. He LOVES to be sung to. If you sing a happy song he will dance with joy! He loves the company of other dogs and would benefit by having a confident dog brother or sister canine or two to live with. Alfie is very small so we think that older children would be best for him. If you meet Alfie, you will be utterly enchanted and fall in love.
He is doing well with housebreaking and is seeming to understand about going outside when offered a regular and frequent schedule.
Pictures and video cannot capture the cuteness of this boy!
Alfie was rescued on his last day from a high kill shelter in Los Angeles CA and flown to New England for a second chance.
If you are interested in adopting Alfie please go to our website www.annieslittleorphans.org and fill out our Adoption Application in the Adopt Now page or feel free to email us at email@example.com and we will send you an email version. Please call 802-387-4710 if you have any questions about our adoption process.
We are located in Hillsborough NH and welcome adopters from all over New England and beyond.
Alfie, a Hillsborough Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Hillsborough, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Hillsborough.

Development of dengue virus replicons expressing HIV-1 gp120 and other heterologous genes: a potential future tool for dual vaccination against dengue virus and HIV
Laboratory of Molecular Virology, Division of Emerging and Transfusion Transmitted Diseases, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, FDA, Bethesda, MD, USA
BMC Microbiology 2001, 1:28 doi:10.1186/1471-2180-1-28Published: 13 November 2001
Toward the goals of providing an additional vector to add to the armamentarium available to HIV vaccinologists and of creating a bivalent vaccine effective against dengue virus and HIV, we have attempted to create vectors which express dengue virus non-structural proteins and HIV immunogens. Previously we reported the successful construction of dengue virus replicons which lack structural genes necessary for virion release and spreading infection in culture but which can replicate intracellularly and abundantly produce dengue non-structural proteins. Here we attempted to express heterologous genetic material from these replicons.
We cloned into a Δpre-M/E dengue virus replicon genes for either green fluorescent protein (GFP), HIV gp160 or HIV gp120 and tested the ability of these constructs to express dengue virus proteins as well as the heterologous proteins in tissue culture after transfection of replicon RNA.
Heterologous proteins were readily expressed from these constructs. GFP and gp120 demonstrated minimal or no toxicity. Gp160 expressing replicons were found to express proteins abundantly at 36 hours post transfection, but after 50 hrs of transfection, few replicon positive cells could be found despite the presence of cellular debris positive for replicon proteins. This suggested that gp160 expressed from dengue virus replicons is considerably more toxic than either GFP or gp120. The successful expression of heterologous proteins, including HIV gp120 for long periods in culture suggests this vector system may be useful as a vaccine vector, given appropriate delivery methods.

I just might be done with mine. I flipped the image, but I'm not sure if I want to keep it like that, so any feedback would be appreciated.
I just might be done with mine. I flipped the image, but I'm not sure if I want to keep it like that, so any feedback would be appreciated.
Moai - I have to keep this short, so I'll just mention what I think is the most important for the picture at this moment: Everything in the picture has a sort of watercolor feel to it, which isn't bad, but in turn it gives everything the exact same texture. Light doesn't react with everything the same way (obviously, you know that)... there are glossy things (like ferns and some reptile skin) and very soft things, like the moss.
One more thing -- the background looks like you just left the canvas blank.
It's wonderful, one of your best (though I haven't seen a lot of your work) I think.
Moai, thanks for the crit. i may work on this a bit more before deadline. idk right now tho b/c i'm pulling a 10hr tomorrow and the deadline is saturday.
i think your comp is the strongest piece in the thread right now. the time you poured into it definitely shows, and i absolutely love the undersketches you made. very inspiring. i really enjoy your use of color as well. my composition took a page from some of Bill Watterson's comic panoramas early on in the process and ended up with a very narrow range of colors... i guess im a bit timid about that kind of thing too tho.
i agree with JH about the background a bit. the background stuff on one side of the fallen log doesn't match the background stuff on the other side and this bothers me a bit because the side which your composition tells my eye should be closer is actually less defined and therefore farther back as far as atmospheric perspective is concerned. not a huge deal, just something that caught my eye. more than perspective tho, id like to see continuity.
also, i'd love to see you push your darks a little bit more. i had an amazing drawing professor freshman year. he was extremely hard on us (he made students cry in critiques) but he was never wrong, and we all improved drastically because of it. one of the things he always stressed was pushing contrast, especially darks.
yeah, i'd love to get a wacom, but working my way through school leaves little extra cash for stuff like that so right now its just on the wish list ^^
Very nice composition, Maoi
For miles around, the rumbling of the prelaunch cylce of the IBM could be heard. The area is scarce of wildlife since testing of the facility is constant.

- My Artwork! -
Last minute thing. Thought I'd have a go before the deadline.
BLOG> http://www.jonmccoy.blogspot.com
Johnnyhorse- I softened up the highlights on the moss and the tree, and introduced some more color into the background. Not too much, though. I don't want the picture to look too yellowy. Thanks so much for the feedback.
sarillion- I'm glad to meet someone else who appreciates Bill Watterson as an artist! His landscapes are wonderful, very simple and natural. Following your advice, I toned down the details on the far side of the log and deepened the shadows a bit. Thanks for the crit.
cognition.sb- Thanks!
Migsta- For some reason, this feels out of perspective to me. The far base, especially, seems too flat. Also, maybe add some cast shadows from those towers and ramps and whatnot. The missile (or something...) coming out of the nearest structure is very well done, and the texture of the forest is very nice.
Kian- Awesome piece. Great lighting and energy. I like the angular style.
Arttorney- Nice update. I still feel that there should be something attracting our attention to the right to balance the composition. Perhaps a bird or something.
Thanks for the crits, everybody. I hope you all get a chance to finish your unfinished pieces!
PS- I'd really appreciate some feedback about whether my pic should be flipped or not.
Moai: i like the comp in its original orientation (with the sleeping dinosaur facing left) best. i think its looking really sharp.
Thanks for your help Moai. I think the version of yours with the log starting at the upper left will be intuitively better for many people because the shapes of the small lizard, then the log, then the large lizard tend to make an S curve. The other way the S is backwards and so it is not the way the western subconscious would be used to seeing it.
Hello everyone , here is my rumble in the jungle.
The subject is pretty simple and clichee, an american helicopter base in the middle of jungle being destroyed by russian airfroce.
(sorry for the extremely short description but have to be really fast with that one , dedlines are killing me ... )
Sarillion and Arrtorney- Thanks for the feedback, guys!
[DAN]- Cool piece. Great sense of lighting and space.
attorney I think the sign is kind of flat. It doesn't look like it is really there. Maybe have it wrap around a little and give it a hint of green bounce from the environment. Nice pic though.
Kian Sweetness going on there. But not a whole lot of jungle.
Migsta that is a nice areal view of a jungle! It is looking very matte though - I'd add some specular highlights to the river.
Dan that is some serious craziness! Powerful image!
my homepage: http://www.trickstertoys.com
Thanks again for the help Moai. I stayed home from work yesterday and made some of those changes
So I guess this was my first piece on conceptart.org and I had a blast working on it. You can expect to see more stuff from me in the future.
Thanks Dragon. Welcome newcomers.
We're about at the end of a much improved round. Best of luck to all in the poll.
attorney - much better. But it still seems very static, in part because it is completetly parallel ("it" being the paper) to the image borders. Slanting the paper slightly would do the trick.
my homepage: http://www.trickstertoys.com
Yeah, I could see that. Basically this is my second photoshop effort ever, and so I barely figured out how to get text in there that was not my own suck-ass handwriting. I did figure it out, partly because I didn't want to screw up the drawing trying to make a bird with my rather questionable animal rendering skills. Unfortunately, now I don't know what I can do to fiddle about with that "rectangular marquee" thingy I used, and make it into some kind of parallelogram or trapezoid. The help topics don't seem to cover that thing at all. My guess is that I would need to make another layer and just draw jungle orthoganally over select edges of the thing. I'm too drunk right now for that, frankly (for global folks, it's after 7 P.M. on Saturday night where I am).
My original conception was to put a big old water buffalo kind of up close and personal with its head and horns somewhere in the neighborhood of the lower right intersection of the thirds. I didn't do that because I didn't want to press my luck once I managed to make a reasonably passable tiger. I had wanted to move on and make an IDW hovercraft by today. In retrospect I guess I might as well have made the water buffalo.
This concludes this week's episode of "Self-critical Catharsis." We now return you to your regularly scheduled Environment of the Week episode: "Rumble in the Jungle."
For [Dan]: Son of a bitch! Er, I mean, it's sort of a beach!! We leveled the place!

kian, bumskee - great atmosphere!
Wow, a lot of last day great entries... still waiting on Gizmodus' update.
Arttorney - Great improvement over the piece. Looks like you are getting quite comfortable with Photoshop already. As for the marquee... once you have a rectangle selected, right click on the image with the tool and then select "Tranform Selection," from there you should be good to go
Moai - excellent work! I'm still very bothered by the sky/light in the canopy and background, but I understand that at this point it's dangerous (i can imagine that the method that you used is maybe too linear for experimentation!)
Snowboarder - Looks much better. The volcano still needs some work, since it is the focus IMO--maybe some smoke and warmer (less brown) colors. Also, the trees are very strange that frame the volcano... they really shouldn't be straight lines, it's quite confusing actually!
Dan - Excellent--now that's some energy! Those people blasted back by the helicopter explosion stand out way too much though.
Bumskee - What a lush, surreal jungle; it truly is eye candy. I'm a little concerned with the relation to the topic though--it's not quite a rumble if one person is just hiding! I'm also not sure what his right hand's doing(?)

Some cool new pics! And I missed the deadline!!
Johnnyhorse: I'm sorry that I didn't update my entry. I'm just too busy these days. Hope to post more again when I got used to university...
Gizmodus- The round isn't over until the voting thread is up. But, since that could happen at any time, I can understand if you're a bit leery about putting more work into you piece and then finding out it's too late.
Johnnyhorse- I added some more colors into the background. It's prolly to subtle to be noticed, though. I'll remember to put mork color into the background in my next piece.
Hyver- Not to be rude or impatient or anything, but are we going to vote soon?
Hi all!
another new one here!
I'm trying to increase my painting skills so after a long time lurking I've decided to try and be more active in the EoW and Daily sketch,
this is my environment, I hope you guys write me some critique and feedback!!
bumskee I really like the lighting and atmosphere on yours!
edit: a bit late apparently.. oh well!
About a week late. Polish this up a bit with Pitfall Harry, Rhonda, and/or Quickclaw the cowardly pet mountain lion; then post it in this weeks Pitfall challenge. Hopefully Hyver will have a good sense of humor about the "work created for this activity" rule (but that's why I suggested updating with Pitfall Harry).
Humor? HUMOR?

Reviews of Forest Manor Health Care Center
Average Rating: 5.0 out of 5 stars based on 3 Reviews
I am a friend or relative of resident
What a beautiful facility located off the beaten path. Beautiful scenery, gorgeous courtyard, you just feel so at peace because of the natural surroundings. Definitely a great place to live or rehab. Staff was great, friendly and their was plenty of activities going on. Food was typical, different choices.
I visited this facility
Forest Manor Healthcare Center is an excellent facility. They specializes in long-term dementia and Alzheimer's. They also have a wing for rehabilitation if a person had fallen. The facility was really, really nice. The staff were very attentive, they make sure the patients are cared for. The place is clean, organized, there was enough staff available to take care of the patients. They have a wing dedicated for dementia where people are allowed to walk around. But if they went any further, alarms would go off. And then another wing for severe Alzheimer's patients that was securely locked down so they couldn't get out and wander. They just spent millions of dollars on a renovation. So it's fairly new.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
I believe this assisted living provider is one of the best available today, simply due to the staff alone. They truly, honestly care for those who are staying with them. It is clean, well kept, and very smoothly run. There's not many bad things I can say about Forest Manor. Some of the ameneties seem a little 'stingy'- old beds, small TV's, but nothing out of the ordinary for a nursing home. Very friendly staff and always helpful in even the worst situations. Would definitely recommend them!

Also feeling rather sick this morning. Had some applesauce.. it helped for about 10 mins.. going to try and sleep again soon. Whew I am ready to be over this.
Even my dogs don't understand why we are awake.
Le sigh.

Photos: A dozen Big 12 defensive players to keep an eye on in 2012
Photo: Stephen Spillman/AP
Terrance Bullitt, LB, Texas Tech: Bullitt was one of the few bright spots on an abysmal Texas Tech defense last season, but the Red Raiders couldn't leave well enough alone. They moved the 6-3, 220-pound Bullitt from safety to outside linebacker, although the move makes sense given Tech's switch from a 4-2-5 to a standard 4-3 scheme. For his part, Bullitt seems happy to get closer to the line of scrimmage. "It was a good move," Bullitt said. "I think it fits me better than safety. I'm closer to the line of scrimmage and I feel like that fits my skills better than covering slot receivers."

Não sei nem o que dizer... O livro parece dividido em 4 contos interligados. Um primeiro com nossos ancestrais e o Amigo da Lua, o segundo com o simpático Dr Floyd na Lua, o terceiro com Hal 9000 e o quarto com Dave onde nada mais importa. Fiquei emocionada com o epílogo e estou ansiosa para, finalmente, ver o filme. O livro foi um espetáculo.
I think that my reading was polluted by my having watched the movie; the good thing, however, is that the parts that in the movie were unintelligible (for me at least) are explained in detail here. I'd say ninety percent of the time I was reading an account of what I've seen already, which felt pretty boring; the remaining 10% were fascinating ruminations, partly on where our technological evolution might lead, partly lengthy descriptions of interplanetary vistas. Recommended, but not too much.
This book was based on Clarke's short story "The Sentinel." I actually liked the short story better.

For those who found the movie a puzzlement, all the answers are here.
From what I understand, the movie came first, with Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick having collaborated on the script. As is clear from reading the book, whatever the original script contained, Kubrick employed an impressionistic approach in the first and last segments (that with the ape-men and that leading up to the Star Child), so naturally that left the details up to the viewers' imaginations. Each of those segments in the book is spelled out through a number of chapters.
While the book certainly complements the movie, I would also say the movie complements the book. In other words, I'm not sure the book would feel as strong as it does without the movie. For one thing, I found it impossible to read the words of HAL, the scheming computer, without hearing the wonderful voice actor who brought HAL to life in the movie.
Furthermore, I prefer Kubrick's ending, just letting things be. Unfortunately Clarke takes his narrative a couple of paragraphs further and I felt they were a couple of paragraphs too far.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0451457994, Mass Market Paperback)When an enigmatic monolith is found buried on the moon, scientists are amazed to discover that it's at least 3 million years old. Even more amazing, after it's unearthed the artifact releases a powerful signal aimed at Saturn. What sort of alarm has been triggered? To find out, a manned spacecraft, the Discovery, is sent to investigate. Its crew is highly trained--the best--and they are assisted by a self-aware computer, the ultra-capable HAL 9000. But HAL's programming has been patterned after the human mind a little too well. He is capable of guilt, neurosis, even murder, and he controls every single one of Discovery's components. The crew must overthrow this digital psychotic if they hope to make their rendezvous with the entities that are responsible not just for the monolith, but maybe even for human civilization.
Clarke wrote this novel while Stanley Kubrick created the film, the two collaborating on both projects. The novel is much more detailed and intimate, and definitely easier to comprehend. Even though history has disproved its "predictions," it's still loaded with exciting and awe-inspiring science fiction. --Brooks Peck

text: Store Robber Tells Court: My Mommy Made Me Do It And court agrees, giving her 7 years By Neal Colgrass, Newser Staff Posted Oct 26, 2012 4:10 PM CDT STORY COMMENTS (23) (Newser) – A young London-area man confessed to organizing a robbery at the computer store where he worked—but swore his mother made him do it, the Daily Mail reports. A court handed Anthony Bradley, 22, a 3-year sentence for hiring a pair of thugs to rob a PC World store of about $60,000 with a fake Uzi. But the court gave his mother, Mina—the store's assistant manager—7 years for being the "chief instigator and planner," the judge said. Described in court as "not a deep thinker," Anthony admitted his guilt when arrested. But Mina, 52, denied any involvement—until she learned that her son planned to rat her out. "As a mother, she betrayed her son, manipulating him until he was forced to execute her plans," a detective in the case said. "Sadly he now has to face the reality of his actions and faces time behind bars." A robber in action.

How sugar affects the brain - Nicole Avena

View full lesson: you eat something loaded with sugar, your taste buds, your gut and your brain all take notice. This activation of your reward system is not unlike how bodies process addictive substances such as alcohol or nicotine -- an overload of sugar spikes dopamine levels and leaves you craving more. Nicole Avena explains why sweets and treats should be enjoyed in by Nicole Avena, animation by STK Films.

I'm glad that Owen is back to being "himself" but he was that way around others before he tried to kill himself. Maybe it's a cover up. A lot of people mask their disgust for themselves with irony, sarcasm, and humor.

I hope that Owen is working through his problems. :)As for Lindsay, I guess this means she's either planning another rehab photo shoot, or is planning on leaving rehab soon. She needs to focus on her rehab, not her hair extensions!

This morning started like most mornings, waking up, stretching, bathroom, etc etc. One of my friends from Cali is visiting and we were scheduled to meet up with another friend of hers this morning, a nice Saturday brunch. So, I jumped in the shower seeing as I was up early and had the time for a nice shower even before breakfast…sometimes, you just need that! My friend popped her head out of her room and said plans had been cancelled.
"WHAT? Can't hear you! Wait till I'm out of shower!" I yelled back. I had some serious showering to do here…under the spray, washing my hair, letting the water run… oh, heavenly!
After I got out, she popped out of her room again to let me know brunch plans cancelled and we can do this or that, and she told me how tired she was. I told her she could go back to sleep, after all, she's on vacation!
So, after she goes back to bed, I happen to look outside from my room, and….
there is a mattress. In my yard. Just propped up there. What the hell?!? Now, remember, I haven't had coffee yet, I just got out of the shower, and I haven't even put my glasses on yet. But, there is a mattress in my yard.
It wasn't there last night. Why would someone put a mattress in my yard overnight?? And with all this rain that we've been getting? It'll be soaked! Ew gross!
A few thoughts ran through my head…
First I thought that maybe my friend that stayed here had put it there temporarily and then forgot to get it (she had taken the seats out of her SUV and had a mattress in the back for traveling.) I quickly dismissed that because although she came over to pick up a few items she'd forgotten at my house, she didn't take a mattress out of her SUV and leave it in my yard. And if she had, she would have told me about it. So, no, that's not it.
Then, today being garbage day, I thought maybe some neighbor or mine had wanted to throw it out, but the garbage doesn't take large items on Saturday, so instead of lugging it back home, they dumped it in my yard because it's so close to the curb. I didn't understand why they would do this and it seemed unlikely, but then again, I do live in Florida and people here are known to do strange things!
Then, I thought maybe another friend of mine left it in my yard as a joke. She's a total night bird…she and her hubby rarely get to bed before 5am, but they are in the process of moving, so maybe they had an extra mattress and brought it over during the night? Again, unlikely, because she usually asks if I want things ahead of time-it's not like her to just bring something over. hmmm...
So, I went out to look at it a bit, but not too close! I just opened the door and looked at it from about 15 feet away. I was like the ape from 2001 circling the monolith, this strange contraption that just landed in my world. Don't get too close! What is that thing? Why is it here? I did see it was meant for a child though. Again, don't get close and go back inside, where it's safe! You never know what that baby mattress could do!!
Then, I thought that maybe it was for my niece's baby shower today, that maybe someone had this mattress for the shower and didn't want to lug it all over the place and so plopped it at my place because it's on the way to the shower? (yes, I realize how stupid that sounds, but again, I haven't even had coffee yet.)
I grabbed my phone and checked for any messages. Nothing. Hmmmm…you'd think if someone decided to borrow my yard as a temporary holding space, they would at least leave a message, no? No. So, I called my sister (it's her daughter having the baby), and asked if she dropped it off, or if she knows who dropped it off. No. And she was just as perplexed as I was, and stated very clearly that a baby mattress had not even been on the list of things needed. However, she had had her coffee, and asked, "Is there a note on it?"
Oh, good thinking. Yesyes, let me go see if there is a note. Goodgood. As I got closer, I was relieved to see it wrapped in plastic and protected from the elements. Phew. It's brand new. But no note. At this point, I was a bit more confident about this strange mattress in my yard, and I (gasp!) even dared touch it to see a shipping label at the top. Where was it supposed to go? AHA!! I was right (well, sort of…)
It belonged to some neighbors! It had been mistakenly delivered to my place instead of theirs!! I walked over to their building, and went and knocked on the door, to let them know they had a mattress waiting for them at my place.
This woman came out with the cutest little baby boy, and sure enough, the mattress was meant for him. I told her how I woke up with this mattress in my yard and was completely perplexed as to how it had arrived in my yard overnight and she said it was to be delivered today. AH! yes, that made sense! Delivery came early today! It wasn't put there overnight!! AHA!! Yes! Total sense!
I need coffee.

Fit at least a 26x2.3 tire comfortably.
Have it with slalom/4x geometry, nice low bottom bracket height, handle a 3"-5" travel fork and have the tire an inch from the seat tube for a short wheelbase and snappy cornering.
Could probably achieve the wheel base but the issue could be crank arm clearance. Which going to a 73mm bottom bracket might fix.

Kristin Cavallari Has a "Rough Night" With Baby Camden
Sleepless in The Hills!
After welcoming son Camden Jack three weeks ago with fiance Jay Cutler, Kristin Cavallari hasn't been getting much beauty sleep.
PHOTOS: Kristin's maternity style
The 25-year-old former Hills star tweeted Thursday, "Rough night last night! Little guy just didn't want to sleep until about 4am."
Baby Camden is the first child for Cavallari and the Chicago Bears quarterback, 29. The couple revealed they were expecting back in January, two months after announcing their nuptials were back on following a July 2010 split.
PHOTOS: Most memorable Hills moments
On Aug. 10, two days after her son was born, Cavallari tweeted, "Being a mom is the most incredible feeling. I am so in love with this little boy!"
But there have been a few challenges since then!
"Cutting a newborn's nails might be the scariest thing ever," she observed on Twitter last week.
The new mom is, however, savoring her favorite foods once again. One fan asked on Twitter, "Have you had your 'post-pregnancy sushi' yet?" Cavallari replied, "In the delivery room! Ha!"

Mel Gibson is reportedly developing a film about Jewish warrior Judah Maccabee for Warner Bros. This is quite ironic, since Gibson's public downfall began after he made a series of anti-Semitic remarks to the officers arresting him for DUI back in 2006. Gibson's star fell even further when a series of taped phone conversations to his girlfriend were made public, featuring the actor ranting and saying some very controversial things.
However, the idea of Gibson tackling the Maccabee story almost makes sense on some levels. The actor helmed the religious film The Passion of the Christ, which went on to become the highest grossing R-rated film of all time. He's also demonstrated a keen interest in historical dramas based on his work in films like Braveheart and The Patriot. With that in mind, this new project doesn't seem like such a stretch -- just poor judgment.
Gibson is shepherding the film through the early stages of production according to The LA Times. Basic Instinct scribe Joe Ezsterhas is working on the script – which tells the tale of Judah Maccabee and his family's revolt against the Greek-Syrian armies. The victory is celebrated each year at Hanukkah.
Gibson is waiting to see the finished script before deciding how involved he'll be – he's likely to direct if the screenplay meets his standards, and hasn't ruled out acting. Speculation is that he might take on the part of Judah's father, Mattathias.
Making a film celebrating Jewish heroes after having proclaimed that "the Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world" might be viewed by some as an obvious ploy to win back those offended by his anti-Semitic comments. If Mel really wants to rebuild his career, maybe a better option would be something innocuous that people could get behind – like Lethal Weapon 5 or Braveheart 2, where William Wallace comes back from the dead and goes all Jason Voorhees on the English. Doing a film about incredibly important figures from Jewish history seems likely to encourage more controversy than forgiveness.
What do you guys think? Can Gibson resuscitate his career or has the damage he has done to his reputation so been profound that his life as an entertainer essentially over? Weigh in below.

When I installed 2.0 over my 3.9, most of all of my content moved to the left. Prior to the upgrade, everything was good. Now, take a look:
Please help. Thanks.
Sorry, since I can't see how the page was before installing PixG 2.0, could you provide more details? Just to understand: were the orange buttons aligned to center? Are columns missing too?
Manuel :-)
Here is what the old site looked like. You can compare them side by side. the first one I gave you on the myftpupload domain is the site with the updated Gridder (2.0).
Please, take a look at your source code, I think you inherited something from Word or another text editor, since in the new site (the broken one) I see that:

Try to remove all this hidden code that generates a paragraph in a wrong place and let me know.
Manuel :-)
I'm sorry, I am not the greatest "coder". Can you give me an idea of what you mean when you say 'hidden code'? Where is this?
Sure, I think you paste the text after copying from Microsoft Office Word. Just re-paste the text into your page backend, but this time, follow this procedure: http://www.authormedia.com/how-to-copy-from-word-into-wordpress/
Let me know. Manuel :-)
WTH!?!?!?!?! Why would I not have that 'paste from Word' button?
Because that button was removed in WordPress 3.9
Sorry, just paste it into the "Text" editor instead of the "Visual" one :-)
Ok, but, as far as I can see, the only problem is that the "row" has a negative margin: -30px set by the theme you're using.
On the original site you have changed (or someone for you) the class of the row in "row-pix" to avoid this issue. Please check and let me know.
Manuel :-)
So... may I consider the issue resolved? Or, at least, not depending on the plugin? :-)
Not quite yet. I am hoping to have it resolved by today. If you can hold off for a little longer, I would appreciate it. BTW, you have been EXCELLENT so far.
Ok, no prob, just let me know :-)
I should have asked you. do you know what file I have to go into to change that setting? I see it on Firebug, but cannot find that string of code anywhere. Thanks.
I just released PixGridder 2.0.1 where I've added some filters:
$row_open = apply_filters('pixgridder_row_open', "
"); $row_close = apply_filters('pixgridder_row_close', "
"); $column_open = apply_filters('pixgridder_column_open', "
"); $column_close = apply_filters('pixgridder_column_close', "
");
Just use these filters on your functions file to decide what to print instead of the default classes, tags etc. Just remember that these functions work for the HTML output only, not for CSSs.
About filters: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_filter
Manuel :-)
How much would you charge me to fix this for me?
Thank you for the offer Gene, but I'm not available at the moment because of many other projects I'm working on, I'm sorry.
Manuel :-)
I get it, thanks Manuel.

Seems like the number of people taking
is MUCH MUCH GREATER than scwcd etc. Also, one guy told me that an scwcd cert does not have "much value" for employers. I wonder how important this certification is to employers ?
Is it worth pursuing scwcd , or ditch the cert and become a good web-comp developer and show it in an interview ?
SCJP 6. Learning more now.

Pff, well, Rahul, that in the Netherlands really depends on who you are talking too. Some people think certifications are all worthless, mostly the people who have programming experience themselves and can ask you themselves better what you know. Some human resource managers though, like them. I think SCJP is just better known as SCWCD. And also you should see the certification as a confirmation of your knowledge. But the knowledge itself should be the goal, not the paper. Although the paper is an extra motivation and goal to work to. If you do it just for the paper, don't do it.

Every person who sees a certification has a different opinion on certifications. One person may thing you are an expert of the subject and know everything about the subject matter. Other people may simply see that you passed a special multiple choice exam. I think the real advantage of certifications is that it supplements your previous experience and shows some base level of skill. If you have two applicants that both have the same amount of experience and good references, certifications could be the tie breaker.
A big problem with the SCWCD EE5 is that the name does not explicitly state what it covers. Most of the people that look at initial resumes are HR people and not programmers. Their job is to look at the batch of resumes and throw out any that do not contain certain keywords they are looking for. I like how the new certification is called Enterprise Edition 6 JavaServer Pages and
Developer because it explicitly states what technologies it covers. If you already have a job, ask if the company will cover the cost of the exam. If the only "cost" to you is the time spent studying, then it's value is definitely worth the cost.

Most people taking SCJP (is it now called OCJP?) because it is a requirement before you can get the others like SCWCD or SCBCD.
I agree. Here's the link:

6 Storytelling Elements to Help You Create Better Content
While the emergence of new technologies and social media networks has made it easier than ever to find your audience, it has also complicated the process by which nonprofits plan campaigns and strategies. With so much content available, people are turning away from lackluster content and searching for something more. But what are they looking for?
Adobe Photoshop Elements vs. Photoshop
If you're going to work more effectively with images and don't already have an image-editing tool, you might consider Adobe Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements. This newly updated image- and video-editing bundle runs on Windows machines or Macs, and is now available to eligible nonprofits, charities, and libraries through TechSoup Canada.
Tell your stories on social media. It's easy!
A trauma hospital in war-torn Syria seems an unlikely spot to be posting about your day on Facebook. Yet that's exactly what Canadian doctor Anne Marie Pegg did for Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) on International Women's Day with the help of staff in its Canadian office.
3 Great Examples of Digital Storytelling at Work
We spent the month of April talking about digital storytelling, and I've been struck by the many different and creative ways that nonprofits are using video, photos and other online tools & channels to share stories. In this post I wanted to share a few of my favourite examples that I've come across.

There's nothing like a story to get your message across. When I'm trying to understand what a nonprofit does, I find mission statements are often vague and hard to understand, and numbers on their own are dry and lifeless. It's stories that really paint a picture of what you do and of the change you are bringing about - whether you're reaching out to someone who's never heard about you, or to one of your most dedicated donors.

Tips for Creating Low-to-No Cost Videos for Nonprofits
A lot of non-profits are a bit intimidated by the idea of venturing into the video world, primarily due to fears about the cost. You don't have to hire a production studio, and you don't have to rent or buy expensive equipment. You can actually do it for no money at all! Here's how.
Toronto Net Tuesday Recap - Sharing Your Story
If we compare the two phrases, "Hear John's story on our website" or "go to the website and check out our stats", which of the two is more likely to encourage you to go to the organization's website? The first one, right? The most compelling stories are those that appeal to emotion: those that are told from the heart, rather than a fact sheet.
