12 Most Loyalty-Driving Brand Tactics… According to Apple
For those of you following my posts on 12 Most, you'll notice I've been fascinated with Apple lately. Soon after laying claim to the World's "most valuable brand" title, Steve Jobs resigned his "day job", which inspired me to compile his 12 Most Important Quotes for Business in tribute. The subsequent discussions around that post once again raised the topic of the militant-like loyalty that Apple has earned under Steve's guidance.
For most brands, consumers start out as a customer, and after much use and positive engagement with the company, become a fan. Mac has never had a customer; they start out as fans and quickly move to cult-members.
Like every other computer vendor, Apple is no stranger to hardware, software or even pricing issues; the missteps and glitches that PR pros dread and sales executives have nightmares over. Yet, the legion of Appleholics grows and grows, apparently ignoring some of the very issues that they so venomously criticize other brands for. So what makes them so loyal? Alas, that may be a bigger secret than how they get the caramel inside the Cadbury Caramilk bar. So this self-proclaimed "PC-Man" has done some research and compiled this list of 12 Most Loyalty-Driving Brand Tactics used by Apple in hopes of uncovering the secret. Join me:
1. You're "cool" or you're "the other guy"
Regardless of what you think of Apple, you have to admit it has swagger. The marketing geniuses from the early days have positioned it as the hip alternative to the corporate three-piece suit. Right up to the modern: "I'm a Mac" commercials that personify the Mac as the good looking, fit Gen Y male as opposed to the Boomer parent/corporate manager. It's brilliant on so many levels. Fight the Man! Just brilliant.
2. As long as they're spelling my name right…
As referenced in the intro, Apple is no stranger to hardware, software or pricing snafus. In fact, many believe they're all carefully orchestrated PR stunts to keep the media interested and frantically focusing on "what's next" from Apple. Recently, a second iPhone prototype was lost in a bar. Accident? Really? Brilliant.
3. Where everybody knows your name
Removing their products from big box retailers was called out by some as snobby, when in reality it was an ingenious branding and loyalty initiative. Not only is it a show piece that seems to be designed "just for customers", Mac enthusiasts look to it as a social club. Mac-heads go to the Apple Store to meet Mac-headettes, chat all things Apple and do their secret-handshake thing. It's "their" place (and I'm sure each location has a Cliff Clavin waiting to give them some useless, but entertaining piece of pop-culture trivia). Brilliant.
4. Square pegs in square holes
Apple's products pretty much plug-'n-play so well with each other that buying just one is akin to a drug dealer giving you a free hit. He knows you'll want the next one and the next one and will charge you through the nose to get it. In fact, Apple was so smart they control the farming, packaging and distribution of anything related to its drug so even if you wanted to go elsewhere, you couldn't. Brilliant.
5. Don't like Apples? How 'bout them oranges?
There are many, for whatever reason, that just won't buy a Mac but will fork over hundreds or even thousands of dollars for an iPhone or an iPod. They'll stop buying CDs and download their music from iTunes. And then the local drug dealers show up (see point 4) showing you how much faster and easier they're designed to work with a Mac… and soon enough… you need to call the Betty Ford Clinic. Brilliant.
6. Back to the future
Many credit Apple's incredible product launch successes with its product development patience and detailed research; however, I believe it's their ability to give customers what they're going to want in a year, not what they need today that has made them so successful. Back to the future, indeed. Brilliant.
7. That's the help's job, not Steve's Job
Sometimes I wonder if anyone other than Steve Jobs works at Apple? They're virtually absent from social media engagement. Is the entire company automated? The reality is that Apple has made it a policy to outsource whatever it can so that whatever consumer engagement the public does have with it directly, is guaranteed to be positive. Brilliant.
8. More like 1984 than you may think
Apple's Macintosh computer was launched in what will go down in the annals of marketing history as the most powerful product launch campaign ever: the "1984" Super Bowl Commercial, which positions the Mac as the means of saving humanity from the "conformity" of IBM desktops. Yet, every Apple product is incredibly consistent and "conforms" to a simple, albeit effective blueprint. Essentially, they're criticizing the drug cartels while secretly bringing the drugs into the country via little old ladys' handbags. Brilliant.
9. Never let 'em out of your sight!
While the products may conform to a single formula as listed above, they are varied just enough to ensure that there's never a time where you won't need or want to have one of them by your side. From the laptop to Apple TV; from the iPod to iTunes; from the iPhone to the iPad… there's never a point in your day where an Apple product will not be by your side. Brilliant.
10. Get 'em while they're young
The most successful drug dealers understand the value of "getting 'em while they're young"… and impressionable. Apple has always focused on providing incredibly attractive pricing to schools and colleges to ensure that our public school system pushes out adult Mac-heads ready to drink the juice. It's a rather "Orwellian" policy but kudos to them for thinking about it. Bet Microsoft wishes it had done so first. Brilliant.
11. Yeah, baby, yeah!
Apple has always understood that simplicity is sexy. And sex sells. Design was never an afterthought to functionality. Design was function and they leveraged it in everything from packaging to product development to the graphical user interface. Brilliant.
12. Is it a religion or a cult?
The greatest political leaders have learned that appealing to the audience's spiritual or emotional senses is the best way to engender loyalty. And Apple has been quietly creating its own cult, er… religion with surgeon-like precision. Complete with a deity figure (Steve Jobs) and prophets (Guy Kawasaki), Churches (Apple Stores) and Pilgrimages (Mac Expo). People don't simply purchase Apple, they worship it at its altar. Brilliant.
Many will argue that the product is so good, that it's enough to earn such die-hard fans. I've always disagreed with that premise because in other categories there are products that rise to the same level of quality, if not better, and yet they've not been rewarded with such fanaticism.
So you be the judge. Are these the factors that have driven such fervent loyalty? If so, could it be replicated for other businesses? What are your thoughts? Join the discussion below.

Apple as an Orwellian purveyor of drugs, sex and (checking my iTunes library, wait a minute...oh yeah) Rock n' Roll is a bold statement, x 12 ....and a great read. Nice insights, very provocative!
But Sam, are you saying in #7: if you have killer products and awesome branding, you don't need social media? Or that it just doesn't matter?
Tag, you're it!
Latest blog post: SMU Meadows School of the Arts: Elevator Pitch Workshop
I've been on Macs since about '88 and wouldn't think of using anything else. My wife always worked in the PC world, but once she had a Mac, there was no looking back for her either.
I could say so much about Apple, but this is a comment, not a blog post. So, suffice it to say that everything you need to know about Apple is evident in their packaging before one even gets to the actual product. Upon opening a new iPhone recently, it was an experience that slowly, enticingly reveals the beauty of the product inside. The attention to detail by Apple is impeccable, from products, to stores, to advertising, etc., but form always follows function. Steve Jobs knows how to make things both beautiful and useable — proof that design matters.
I don't really understand this equating of Apple products with drugs. I can quit any time I want!
Wait, no, give me my mac book back. And my iPhone. Neh, I want my iPod too, come to think of it.
Ok, ok, I see your point.
I have worked on Macs and PCs over the years, and I have never understood why some people argue that Windows is so much easier than Mac. That run menu is just crap, friends :)
i'm a little biased, but I'll say this Sam - great points and great post!
The Apple Store makes my heart go pitter pat every time I enter. I would not dream of trading my iPhone or iPad for anything else. Who doesn't want to step up the Genius Bar and get spectacular service?
Great post Sam!
Sam, It sounds like you might be almost ready to come over to the "bright" side... Get a MAC!!! I found myself giggling and nodding throughout this post. Very clever insights. I will never forget the day I bought my first Mac and the sales person, who had patiently walked me through, without any type of hard-sell, why Mac is worth the money, shook my hand and said "Welcome to the Orchard". I felt like I had joined the "cool" crowd. So funny. But I love my Mac, and there's no going back!
This made me laugh and nod my head consistently throughout. My boyfriend loves Macs and we have had the conversation that consisted of 'you should get a Mac', 'no, they are too expensive for what I need a computer to do', 'fine then, enjoy getting viruses' each and seemingly everytime we go to Best Buy. He also laughs a little too loud when my computer runs slow or I yell at it (do Mac users yell at their computers - ever?! - I have to know!).
My dad is a Wang Computers / Digital alum and he did not care for Mac's one bit whil I was growing up. Our high school taught us typing skills on Macs and I wanted one dearly to which he always replied 'well Id have to buy you your own printer and you have to buy software and blah blah blah' because you could not connect a Mac to a PC. Even now that you can do this more easily, he still comes up with excuses and you wont see him with an iPhone or an iPod anytime soon.
And even though I would not shell out $1000s on a Mac, I do own an iPhone and use my iPod nearly everyday driving in to work.
@westfallonline No, #7 is more a reference to Apple outsourcing much of the person to person contact they have to provide for support, etc over the years.
@PaulBiedermann Um, Re: "Upon opening a new iPhone recently, it was an experience that slowly, enticingly reveals the beauty of the product inside."
Are you buying the phone or making love to it? Geesh.
Again, Kudos to Apple for creating a brand that drives people to associate opening a box to making love. It's an amazing thing. Wish I'd have done it first.
@margieclayman Keep drinking he Kool Aid Margie. There's no sugar in it. Keep drinking...
@PegFitzpatrick And if anyone doesn't think Apple has bottled "drug addiction", Peggy sez: "The Apple Store makes my heart go pitter pat every time I enter."
It's plastic and wires for pete's sake!
@pamelamaeross Ha, excellent story. Seems Macheads remember the day they purchased their first Mac like they remember where they were when JFK was shot.
Kudos Apple.
@C_Pappas I'm sure the militant loyalty that the Church of Apple has mystically generated from it's followers is the root cause of many a relationship breaking up so be careful!!! First the Church of Scientology, now The Church of Apple! EEK.
@samfiorella Heh-heh — yeah, maybe that was a little over the top. True, though!

Super Science Health Adventure
Updated: Friday, August 2 2013, 10:18 PM EDT
Kindergarteners are learning about the different types of animals who live in the forest.
As you'll see in our Never Stop Learning report, they even get to touch some of them.
For many of these students this is the first time they've seen a snake up close, let alone feel his scaly skin.
This morning these Vance Elementary School kindergarteners are on a field trip to the Asheville Health Adventure.
They're learning about the animals different skin types and how they travel.
And the kids get to see Smoky put out a camp fire encouraging kids to always play it safe in the forest.
There are a number of hands on activities in the Smoky Bear Woodsy Owl Exhibit and the children are encouraged to play with each one.
From dressing as a ranger to planting plastic trees.

All Access with David Grace
I had a chance to sit down with Oregon State University assistant basketball coach David Grace on his recent visit to Arizona.
Today is a historic day, as he will coach in his first road game of the Pac-10 season, in the state of Arizona, where he was a big influence in the basketball community.
Grace won an Arizona high school state basketball championship with South Mountain High School in 2006. He also coached club basketball with the Arizona Magic, Compton Magic & Boo Williams in his days before his college coaching career.
He spent one season at Sacramento State (2006), and San Francisco (2007), before his stop in Corvallis, Oregon.
He was also named Head Basketball Coach at Deer Valley HS in the summer of 2008, but decided at a short notice to take an offer from first year coach Craig Robinson, the brother-in-law of President elect Barack Obama.
It was a dream come true for an honest, hard working person who cares about everybody and a person who would never have nothing, but a smile on his face when you meet him. A person who has no enemies and thinks basketball 24/7. One day, David Grace hopes to be a head coach in college or the NBA.
Here is a brief question & answer with Oregon State's David Grace . . .
Q: What are some of the aspects of Oregon State University that led you to take the job?
Grace: An opportunity to work with Craig Robinson, Doug Stewart and Nate Pomeday. I also wanted to work at a prestigious University in OSU and the Pac-10 Conference.
Q: In your opinion, what are the most important factors into building a winning program?
Grace: Accountability and setting high standards to achieve. Also the team must be well disciplined, on and off the court.
Q: Is there a philosophy you teach that you would like your players to follow?
Grace: We want our kids to work hard, be honest and make the most of your 24 hours given each day.
Q: Who are some of the top players you have coached over the years, and where are they now?
Grace: Kaleo Kina (Navy), Lawrence Hill (Stanford), Christian Polk (UTEP), Derek Wabbington (Harlem Globetrotters), Ty Morrison (NBDL), Taylor Rohde (Arizona State), Harper Kamp (California), Zane Johnson & Jamelle Horne (Arizona), Louis Amundson (Phoenix Suns), ,b>CJ Watson (Golden St Warriors), and Jerryd Bayless & Channing Frye of the Portland Trailblazers.
Q: From going 0-23 last season, when was the last time Oregon State won a Pac 10 game?
Grace: February 22, 2007, before upsetting USC in overtime last Sunday.
Q: What are the most enjoyable parts of being a college coach?
Grace: Getting a chance to help young people reach their goals and being around great individuals in the coaching profession.

The Good
Better throughput performance than most.
The Bad
Limited manual configuration; very short on features; no connectivity at our outdoor locations.
Router manufacturers have a bad habit of assigning the same names to several different products, or completely changing a router's underlying architecture and changing only the version number. Belkin has two routers it calls N Wireless (and a third called the N+ Wireless). For the record, we reviewed its model F5D8236-4.
Belkin's basic, no-nonsense N Wireless router surprised us with its strong close-range performance.
The N Wireless is very short on features, but it turned in first- or second-place performances at four of our six test locations. It delivered TCP throughput of 76.2Mb/s with the client in the kitchen, 38.1Mb/s on the outdoor patio, and 20.3Mb/s in the double-walled media room. (Its throughput in the media room was two to five times faster than everything other than the D-Link DIR-615). Once we moved the client to our more distant outdoor locations, however, the router and client couldn't maintain a connection at all.
The router can be configured to operate as a wireless access point. It also supports UPnP, so it should play well with other UPnP devices, but it's extremely limited in terms of manual configuration. Its QoS settings are limited to enabling or disabling Wi-Fi Multimedia, for instance, and you can't change its settings for port range forwarding or triggering.

Liverpool Floyd W. Tillotson, who served as mayor of the village of Liverpool from 1977 to 1981, died Wednesday, July 11, at his daughter's home in Brownsville, Kentucky.
Mayor Tillotson succumbed to cancer at age 87. He had been living in Zephyrhills, Fla.
Prior to his election as mayor, Tillotson had served four terms as a village trustee, under previous Mayor Oliver Masters.
During his time at the village helm, Tillotson encouraged the development of Johnson Park. The construction of an amphitheater and pavilion was completed in 1984.
"Floyd started the project in 1980," said Shirley Jefferson, an instrumental member of the Village Citizen Committee, which coordinated U.S. Bicentennial celebrations here in 1976 before turning its attention to Johnson Park.
"Mayor Tillotson said that, in keeping with our theme 'Observing the Past, Celebrating in the Present, Planning for the Future,' he had a project that would fit the last section – 'planning for the future.' For some time the village saw the need to redevelop Johnson Park but did not have the funds to proceed," Jefferson remembered. Town and state sources later helped pay for the project.
Former Mayor Marlene Ward has fond memories of Floyd Tillotson.
"What I remember best about Floyd is what a really great gentleman he was," Ward said. "He really deserved to be mayor, but he was also just such a good representative of the community, a real nice, down-to-earth person. He and his wife, Kathy, were both so full of life."
While he was mayor, the four trustees serving with him on the village board were Charles Daucher, Hal Phillips, Jim Moore and Al Sahm. Moore and Sahm were each later elected mayor.
Ward praised Tillotson's constancy.
"He never changed," she said. "He was always the same whether he was running a meeting or just out in the community, he was always the same, nice person."

ZIP. Not zip as in zero, or zilch, but rather to describe the focused, linear quality of this awesome white. Aromatically, this pristine expression shows citrus, stone fruits, apple, and a reserved, classy minerality that brings Muscadet to mind. Not a hint of peachy, banana-y starter Albariño qualities here. Same exact thing on the palate. In a word: ZIP. If you think you know Albariño and want to further explore the variety, Benito Santos' offerings would be a terrific place to start. Benito Santos was one of the original growers in Rias Baixas when the D.O. was created. The company that now bears his name farms Albariño in three distinct vineyards in Salnés. Each of the vineyards is owned by the church and each is dominated by an 8th century chapel. Benito Santos leases the vines in perpetuity. All of the vines are certified organic by CREAGA, the first vineyards certified in Galicia.

American Express, Discover, MasterCard, Visa
Accepted/Not Necessary
This venue is closed.
This new 70-seat restaurant on Eighth Avenue seems like a classic, low-key neighborhood spot: smoked meats, pizzas, seasonally driven small plates not to mention a fairly generic name but keep an eye on it, as there's an all-star team behind Heartwood. The chef, Bradford Thompson, is a James Beard Award winner ("Best Chef Southwest" in 2006, for Mary Elaine's in Scottsdale). And Thompson is joined by Mark Fiorentino, Daniel Boulud's former chief bread baker, plus restaurateur Nick Mautone, a Gramercy Tavern alum. The restaurant specializes in exotic pizzas like pulled Amish chicken with aged gouda; pickled green-apple and jalapeño; an "Everything Brooklyn Bagel" pie with gin-cured salmon; and "When Peter Luger Goes Out for Pizza," with braised short ribs, creamed spinach, and horseradish.
Megan Fahey, previously of Daniel and Sullivan Street Bakery, is in charge of dessert: Look out for banana-butterscotch trifle with pecan cake, rhubarb-and-berry cobbler with celery sorbet, and a lemon-buttermilk chess tart.Recommended Dishes
"Everything Brooklyn Bagel" pizza; tempura skate fingers; stout-braised beef short rib

School: QB 'needs to be an example'
Updated: September 22, 2003, 10:14 PM ETAssociated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Florida State quarterback Chris Rix used an unauthorized handicap parking tag on campus, and paid a $100 fine after fellow students told police.
Students recognized Rix as he parked his sports utility vehicle near one of his classes last Thursday, and chastised him as he walked away. They then left a note on his windshield and called police, who put a lock on a tire so the vehicle couldn't be moved, school officials said.
Rix said after practice Monday ...

To Anon & Sony
My name is Dan, pleased to meet you.
We are not Anonymous.We are The Gamers.
Our core goals aren't political nor aesthetic.
We did not ask to be pushed into GNU vs Proprietary wars.
We just want to own the hardware and buy the software at lower, reasonable prices, preferably paid directly and/or mostly to the developers.
We don't feel the need to hide.
We won't put up anymore with greedy companies(Activision, CAPCOM, Squeenix) nor invisible unpredictable lamers who further compromise our already tight freedoms.
You won't have to expect us, we were here long before Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft or Anonymous, yet we grew together and fed each other.
We core gamers -as any specific group of human beings- have ONE weapon, amongst many (Loyalty, easeness to work as a group, critical thinking, passion, reflexes and imagination), that identify and bind us all.
We Never Give Up.
Cease and desist on this charade soon, or start losing money and time on both fronts.
pew pew, MF.

"We won't put up anymore with greedy companies(Activision, CAPCOM, Squeenix) nor invisible unpredictable lamers who further compromise our already tight freedoms."
I agree with this.
If you continue directing your resources to the casual market, you'll discover you've gained millions of unpredictable, easily bored customers, who will never pay as much as we do for your games, and steadily lose your hardly earned core fans, who have the potential to be loyal across many generations, as already demonstrated.
We didn't even coordinate, we are loyal and critical by nature. You're on the verge of destroying this golden age of quality gaming. Corporations and Core customers, together, we have raised and nurtured this for decades now.Think Twice about the new target suggested by your subpar marketing & PR teams, or perish following a fad.
Still, an intelligent mind like yours won't unfortunately win against dull yet capable minds.

Anyone who follows college sports knows that the University of Oregon's athletic department, with its Nike connections, has a lot of money at its disposal. How much? So much that the school is now handing out scholarships for its new competitive cheerleading team.
(They deserve a scholarship, right? They're more entertaining than the fencing team.)
While the university does have seemingly endless financial resources, all this actually has more to do with the fact that Oregon reinstated its baseball team this year than anything else. Title IX requires that the school add the same number of scholarships for women that the baseball team uses. And I guess the school was out of ideas for more women's sports, so they decided that a varsity cheer team was a good enough idea. Here's to hoping they get good coaching on how to properly operate a t-shirt cannon.
BUSTED COVERAGE alerted us to a story written by the COLUMBIAN's Howard Buck, who covered the signing day of young Naomi Hoffman of Camas, Washington. She apparently actually had a little public ceremony to sign her letter of intent (that the local newspaper found worthy of covering). And yes, I guess there are letters of intent for this sport, which from what I can gather is officially called something like "high-impact stunt cheerleading" or something like that.
According to Buck, Oregon is one of several schools to recently start such a team at the varsity level. One wonders if it's because universities are trying to help legitimize a sport that only came about because there were other teams to cheer for — or if this is a shrewd way to quickly add some women's scholarships to help offset new men's teams or an increase in men's scholarships in existing sports.
Regardless, Oregon is jumping into this with both feet. They've hired a coach from Kennesaw State who won some national championships and is bringing some of her existing team with her to Eugene.
Apparently, stunt cheerleading is a winter sport, and the team will compete at the Ducks' basketball arena. Based on TV coverage, I thought every cheerleading competition was at Disney World.
I'm under the impression that this team will be separate from the football and basketball cheerleading squads. The current (I guess, "low impact") cheer squads have usually gathered high marks from fans. I was at an NIT game at Madison Square Garden a few years ago that Oregon was playing in and the crowd was more vocal in its support of the Ducks' cheerleaders than of any of the teams playing basketball that night.

This tour was a lot of fun. We could not have climbed the falls without the help of our two guides Harris and Moses. Everyone we told that we were going to Jamaica said not to miss the falls and I am glad we didn't.
This tour was amazing!
With transportation and entrance fees included, this package was a steal. Our driver was courteous and the transportation was all ours since we were the only ones on the van. The sites were amazing!
This was a great tour! We learned so much about the history of Jamaica and info about the caves and the creatures that inhabit them.
The Falls is just a lot of fun with a bit of a challenge to it. A nice way to stay cool on a hot sunny Jamaican day!!!
We loved it and our Tour Guide Johnson from TourWise was very knowledgeable and personable.
This trip rocked! (No pun intended). The guide at the caves was informative and funny -- not rushed. The falls which were amazing! You can get water shoes there for $10. You don't need a guide there; we had more fun scaling the falls by ourselves. We even stopped for sweet sap by the roadside. ☺
Absolutely awesome! The tour through the caves was a bit short and rushed, but the guide was friendly and full of information. Dunn's River Falls was packed to the gills being it was during their Independence week of celebration for Jamaica. That aside, we took the non guided tour and had a blast! Will definitely go again.
This was our very first trip to Jamaica and our first time visiting Dunn's River Falls and the Grotto Caves. The caves were interesting, very hot and muggy during some parts, but very interesting to see. Our tour guide was very energetic and also really funny. He kept us laughing and engaged throughout the 45 minute tour. The earlier you can schedule your tour the better. We went on a Wednesday around 10:00 a.m. and it was only my husband and I and another couple with their two children. Once we finished our tour, the place was packed. Dunn's River Falls was so much fun. Longer than I expected but well worth the trip. There were tons of people waiting in line to get a tour guide to go through the falls, however, you don't have to have a guide to get you through. My husband and I decided to do it alone and walked right past the long lines of people and started the climb together. Once you start you follow along others in a single file line so there is no need to wait in the long line if its just a few of you taking the climb. Some parts are slippery so be sure to wear swim shoes or sneakers.

In espionage parlance, a cutout is a mutually trusted intermediary, method or channel of communication, facilitating the exchange of information between agents. Cutouts usually only know the source and destination of the information to be transmitted, but are unaware of the identities of any other persons involved in the espionage process. Thus, a captured cutout cannot be used to identify members of an espionage cell.

Your reasoning about the colors jogged me. Australias colors are green & gold. Also, the position of the feet may be symbolic, (as in service to others/service to self) although I'm not sure of exact meanings. This goes for their swept hair direction too. The childrens 'pursed' lips are odd also, suggesting being tight lipped?? Having said all this, I think the fact that its post 911, the artist was sending a subtle message.edit on 15-2-2012 by jewells because: (no reason given)

Itachi is the infamous brother of uchiha sasuke. Itachi murdered his entire clan just to test his power. Guy, Rock Lee's sensei was the one person to adapt a fighting technique to counter Itachi's powerful genjitsu. He learned to fight an opponent by watching his feet. This way, he wouldn't have to look into the eyes and thus being immune to eye techniques. Itachi has since learned to counter this strategy as well. Now using merely a single finger, pointed at the victim to cast the genjitsu.

Here is a pinup I did for a friends character and book they put out every year, containing tons of stories and illustrations based on this one character...This is the 2nd year I did it and very happy w/the way it came out... Did it w/a bit of a French take...completely digital
love the acute angle,top stuff.
I Love it!!!
I know nothing about the character, but this treatment is fantastic. I love how elastic he looks, just sinister, man.
not much the know except that he only has 8 fingers and kind of a las vegas mobster/hit man type guy...thanx alot....diff for me
I love it! great, just great
!! Hey I didn't know you knew these guys! I went to college with them and I'm good pals with Brian Growe! I was sad they didn't get the second book out this year, but I got Brians pinup poster. They're sure nice folks. I'm glad you're a fan! Nice piece!
worked w/Eric Gonzalez @Cartoon Network... great guys!!!! and Matt helped coordinate my interview @Disney Feature...now I work there...so guess it all helped..
What happened to his finger?
The cat is really an interest point. And the bloody finger
Very lovely picture.
Very lovely picture.
dont like the right hand very much...just that detail...but, the concept, the B/W..
the concept...everything else..is great....
the concept...everything else..is great....
i know, didnt mean that...i mean the right hand holding the gun is another kind
of line in his fingerss...the line is too thick and makes you lose some detail, i
vectorial stuff in the line just that tiny tiny detail..for me...
of line in his fingerss...the line is too thick and makes you lose some detail, i
vectorial stuff in the line just that tiny tiny detail..for me...
but thats part of the character...he only has 8 fingers...4 on each hand..thus why he is called hard "8"
interesting stuff... it's great to see an artist that doesn't get stuck into the same style over and over
Absolute love for the guy's proportions. Really love the composition too (the upper right feels a bit empty, but putting something there might unbalance things). Very nice, solid and well balanced B&W illustration.
good comment...I understand what you are saying but considering he is the focal point.....I want him to stand out so I purposely left alot of negative space..... plus...see the "8" silhouette
This is wonderful, it's very strong and bold. It makes me want to learn more about the character. I'm sure I wouldn't want to be on his bad side .
Very Different. Very Good.
trippy cool
very lovely.. and completely digital..whoa, man.
Oh, man. You so rule my world.
woow this is nice! That cat around his neck is awesome! And entire work is superb!
awesome! comicbook flava!!!!!
kinda reminds me of a character design i did recently... cept, y'no 6x better. love how you push your characteristics
love it! can you tell me please if this one was done in AliasSketchbook?
i see that you´ve used that program, and it´s really awesome
i see that you´ve used that program, and it´s really awesome

text: 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data Hi, I've got the following problem: Calculate the spacing between atoms of an ideal gas at a temperature of 273K and a pressure of 1atm. 2. Relevant equations Mean free path equation: ʎ = 1 / 4(pi)(n)(σ²) 3. The attempt at a solution I first used the ideal gas equation PV =nRT to get n/V and thus I got 2.67 x 10^25 particles/m^3. But I dont know how I can find the radius of the atom. Am I using the wrong equation to get the spacing between atoms? Thanks!

If the past decade is an indicator, sports broadcasts will be very different ten years from now. FOX Sports is already experimenting with 3D television that could allow different viewers to watch different games depending on the viewing angle of the TV.
Other more realistic advancements are already being made. HD broadcasts are great now and improving dramatically. New cameras provide new and exciting angles almost every year. The best new camera in the last couple of years is the Sky Cam, which runs on a cable over a football field, giving the viewer an unprecedented look at the action.

dilled potato and pickled cucumber salad
Everyone's got a favorite potato salad, and this is ours.
I know most are aggressively forgettable, with so much slick and eerie uniformity in their texture that it almost seems that their creators knew people were never going to eat it anyway, so why bother? But if you do–bother, that is–you're in for a whole other world of crunch, texture, tang, complexity and even, dare I say, flavor. I've made them with a slip of horseradish, with chopped hard-boiled eggs, celery and cornichon, I've tossed them in a mustard vinaigrette with red peppers, capers and olives, yet I haven't done any of those things since I came across this one.

Do you know of any local "Bright Ideas" seeking support through crowdfunding? If so, email email@example.com!
CINCINNATI - The Cincinnati area is rich in creativity and bright ideas. Many artists, community activists and entrepreneurs are ready to run with projects and programs, and they're turning to crowdfunding sites to fuel their ideas.
We highlight two projects that are underway and asking for your support.
Can a stylish hoodie help a local designer warm up the local arts scene? Will a documentary about the decisions we make in life put youth on the straight and narrow? Two local crowdfunding project organizers hope the answers to both questions is yes.
Become a WCPO Insider to learn more about the Cincy Hype Winter Hoodie Line and "When I Was a Child."
There's more to the story when you become an Insider. WCPO Insider's membership is an additional benefit on top of everything you can get for free on WCPO.com. We created an entire digital organization dedicated to bringing you exclusive access to in-depth stories that you can't get anywhere else, handpicked events, and incredible savings on things you love to do. To find out more click here.
Platform: Kickstarter.com Started: February 23, 2014 Goal: $750 Project By: Michael Callahan
Cincy Hype Winter Hoodie Line aims at simple yet stylish fashion that allows customers to represent the city while keeping warm and looking good. Callahan said he hopes that the clothing line will help open the eyes of residents to the new art movement of students and skate boarders in the city. He also takes great pride in the fact that it's a locally owned and operated business, run out of the Delhi area.
Callahan added that if funded, he does not plan to stop at the initial line. He hopes to one day make Cincy Hype into a platform for other Cincinnati artists to showcase their music, photography, paintings, or videos in the form of a blog or website, as well as hosting art shows and concerts.
Why should people support Cincy Hype Winter Hoodie Line?
Michael Callhan says: "First off, you get a product to show your LOVE for the city without any major company marketing or sports team, just Cincinnati. Second off, you are supporting both Cincy Hype and the printing company I use (Meder's screen printing) both which are local companies. If I do reach my goal, it will help me fund my first major run of apparel for my supports and keep the ball rolling for a Spring/Summer line. I will also host my first Cincy Hype art show with local artists for all the supporters if the goal is reached."

Platform: Kickstarter.com Started: February 27, 2014 Goal: $10,000 Project By: Ronald Hummons
Ronald Hummons' documentary, "When I was a Child," tells the haunting story of how bad decisions can not only change a person's life, but also destroy their dreams.
Filmed in Ohio, "When I was a Child," tells the story of six adults struggling with alcoholism, drug addiction, prostitution, and homelessness. The film walks viewers through these individual's lives from childhood dreams to adulthood reality.
Hummons said he hopes the film will give children and young adults an opportunity to see how some of the choices they are making could put them on a path of self-destruction. His inspiration for the film came from growing up in Over-the-Rhine and watching the adults in his life spend their days abusing drugs and alcohol instead of pursuing goals and finding success.
Why should people support "When I Was a Child?"
Ronald Hummons says: "I believe my project tells everyone's story of when they were a child. We all had dreams when we were a kid, unfortunately for some of us, those dreams never made it to fruition and our lives took a different spin."

Jonathan Eric "Jon" Faine (born 21 September 1956) is an Australian radio presenter who hosts the morning program on 774 ABC Melbourne in Melbourne. Faine is also recognised as a prominent and influential member of the Australian Jewish community.[1][2]
Early life and education[edit]
Faine was born in Dunedin, New Zealand. He emigrated to Sydney with his parents at a young age. Later they moved to Melbourne in 1968,[3] where he attended Melbourne High School.
Faine graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1979 and a Bachelor of Laws in 1981 at Monash University, where he worked as an intern at the Springvale Legal Centre, and is promoted as a prominent alumnus on the university's website.[4] After graduation, he began his professional career as a solicitor at the Melbourne law firms Barker Harty and Co, and Holding Redlich and Co, and then at the Fitzroy Legal Service.
Faine began his professional career practising as a solicitor in various Melbourne law firms, combining work with his love of cars by serving as a motoring reporter for a lawyers' magazine.[citation needed] He acted pro-bono for the Australian Democrats in a number of Court of Disputed Returns matters in the late 1980s with success.[citation needed] In 1989 he began working in radio, producing and hosting The Law Report on the Radio National channel of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and, since that time, has worked on various ABC radio and television programs.
From 1996, Faine has hosted ABC's local radio morning program, from 8:30 am to 12:00 noon in Melbourne, including the Conversation Hour which is heard across Victoria from 11:00 am. He is known for vigorous debate and for fostering conversation on politics, law, arts and sport. With high ratings that peaked in September 2002, he was found to be Victoria's top talk-show host (AC Nielsen survey),[citation needed] and in 2003 he received the ABC Local Radio "Broadcaster of the Year" award. He has also worked on scripts for a number of television and feature films.
After a leak of ABC presenters' salaries, Faine disclosed his taxpayer-funded salary to be $300,000 per annum.[5]
In 2011 Faine was voted by the Australian Jewish News as among the Top 50 most influential members of the Jewish community in Australia.[6]
Personal life[edit]
Together with his son Jack, who was aged 19 at the time, Faine used his long service leave in 2008 to drive overland from Melbourne to London, United Kingdom.[7]

Curiosities, quirks, oddites, and items from around the Bay and beyond
In the near future, Navy Marine Mammals will prevent the next diabolical underwater plot hatched by marine-loving terrorists. In fact, they're doing it off the coast of California right now [1]. Lest you be worried that these aquatic freedom defenders are "canaries in a coalmine" (but in water!), rest assured that, "None of the animals have been harmed in the anti-terrorist work. They never have to carry potentially catastrophic mines."
The sexual history of "Gidget." [2]
UC Berkeley plans on asking incoming freshman and transfer students to submit DNA samples swabbed from their inner cheeks, "in an effort to introduce them to the emerging field of personalized medicine." [3] Yeah right. We know that UCB is going to take a page from Philip K. Dick and use the genetic data to blackmail the students when they attempt to do things like go on hunger strikes or protest budget cuts.
Boing Boing has a neat-o preview [4] of this year's Maker Faire.
Garderobe, a word now extinct, went through a similar but slightly more compacted transformation. A combination of "guard" and "robe", it first signified a storeroom, then any private room, then (briefly) a bedchamber and finally a privy. However, the last thing privies often were was private. The Romans were particularly attached to the combining of evacuation and conversation. Their public latrines generally had 20 seats or more in intimate proximity, and people used them as unselfconsciously as modern people ride a bus. [5]
Creepiest headline of the day: Slain woman found in suitcase off Embarcadero [6]
Most delicious word of the day: "maize'wiches [7]"
Piece of Internet wisdom of the day, courtesy of Slog [8] commenter gloomy gus:
"The internet is 45% sadness, 45% anger, and 10% things to soothe the sadness and anger, meaning: cats and advice."

Walter Payton College Preparatory High School was constructed on the Near North side of Chicago in 2000, infused with great public support for its mission to lift up the brightest and best the city had to offer. Being named for Walter Payton, a hallowed figure in Chicago a decade after his passing, enforced the high expectations placed on all involved with the school.
Those expectations took a vicious backfield hit this spring as the head boys' basketball coach for Walter Payton College Prep was accused of violating two female students over the winter. Yesterday, George Turner was formally charged with criminal sexual assault and aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Chicago police also released details, accusing Turner of seducing the girls numerous times.
According to the State's Attorney's office, Turner "befriended the (first) victim". He fondled and participated in oral sex with one girl in his office and car multiple times. He is also accused of brazenly escorting the girl to an "adult sex store", purchasing items for her, taking her to a secluded lakefront spot, and using them on her before giving them to her as gifts.
Police only found out about these incidents when Turner allegedly committed similar acts with a second girl, who told the first girl. They went to the authorities at that time.
Turner, 45, did not teach at Payton; he coached boys' basketball for the last two seasons and coached at the school previously. His 18-year-old son also attends Payton and plays on the team.
Turner's lawyer was careful to point out Turner's volunteer work with the homeless, affection for him in the community, and the spurious nature of the charges. No trial date has been set yet.

WEDDING CAKE WISHES (4) by Dana Corbit: Running his mother's bakery is the one thing Logan Warren can do after she suffers a stroke. He's not pleased when Caroline Scott shows up to help, but Caroline's mother convinces him that it will take both of them to keep the bakery going. Though they get off to a rocky start, it's soon apparent to Caroline that the little boy she remembers is now a man. As for Logan, being close to Caroline shows him that she has become a woman he would like to share his life with. The third and final story in the Warren/Scott saga is poignant and warm, and showcases the many types of love.

Looking great bro. Im exactly at your starting position. I would like to end up at 160, still as lean. Keep at it.
Well the problem is I do some modeling so I need to keep my "figure". If I fatten up I wont book any jobs. Im kinda dealing with a catch 22.
Hey Guys. So im 21, 5'6, 130 pounds. Ive had basically the same body for awhile now due to lots of cardio. love my runnin. Now I want to gain 20-25 pounds of QUALITY weight. I have no interest...
Check out the gap. Very simple, very well fitting clothes. Nice button ups, sweaters, khakis, and jeans. People are great there too. Walk right in and explain your situation and they will help...
I guess its just gunna take me time. Oh well. I lift heavy and eats tons of protein so we'll just see what happens.
I do something at least once a week.
The thing is i'm doing some modeling part time, so I can't lose that definition.
I wanna get biger, but i'm afraid to bulk cause i would lose my definition =/
Holy ****
These pics aren't showing up for me and I really wanna see em.
Lookin like that dude from the matrix in that first one.
I kinda wish I didn't have them. I have a long one starting at my shoulder going down over the bicep to the wrist. That really freaked my last girlfriend out.
Oh. Thanks.
If they show a lot, thats a good thing right? I mean, I got veins poppin out all over my arms and it freaks people out. I tell them its from working out and having a low bf%. As far as I know...
That would be the lovely Lacey Chabert
I wake up at 8, go to school get home at 3, go to work at 4 get back at 10. Sleep, wake, repeat. On weekends I usually work 7:30am- 4pm. After 4 i'll go to the gym, and be too soe to go the next...
My only question is is this enough to do for a bulk? I'm maxing out, but i'm only doing it one day a week.
I'm not sure what you're asking.
That it? I always thought it was more.

Readers will not be disappointed by this complex tale of passion, betrayal, trust and friendship.
Since their respective divorces, homicide detective Pam Donaldson and psychiatrist Declan Trent have been sex buddies to avoid the dating scene. Yet, their plan to remain detached has failed because they both want more. While investigating two homicides, Pam finds a link to Declan -- both women were his patients. Will she trust her lover and believe in his innocence, or violate his trust to find a killer? (Loose-Id.com, dl $6.99)

Great teaser for cats
posted 7 years ago
I have several teaser and this is one of my cats favorites because of the feather and the ball with the bell inside. They are always trying to get at the bell and the teaser is a good way to interact with the cats and give them attention.
Pros: lots of variety
Cons: none

Interactive toy
posted 7 years ago
We like to use this interactive cat toy at our cat shelter as all cats are interested in this when they see the feathers. There is no smell to the toy and choke risk I dont consider as you are with the cat when playing with this toy.
Pros: Brings scared cats out of their shell
Cons: Kinda high price for just feathers on a stick

This is one of our stand-bys
posted 6 years ago
This is one of the various wands we keep all over the house. That way we never have to go looking when a cat is ready to play. These get them jumping and pouncing at the feathers. Can get even the lazy guys moving
Pros: Gets the cats moving
Cons: none

Respond to Review of CLOSED: Demuths
by juliej
Review: My partner & I went for a trip to bristol & Bath. We ate here on the Saturday night. We booked a few weeks ahead as I seen on here it may be a little difficult to get a place, so I cant see how others couldnt have done the same. There is a website which tells you all the prices. We had the Christmas 3 course lunch each & a bottle of wine which came to £70. The food was a taste explosion in every mouthful. It was nice that there was alot of thought put into it instead of just pasta & lasagne which you find in alot of veggie places. For starters we had 5 different types of beetroot with mascarpone goats cheese & pumpkin souffle with celeraic chips, gorgeous. For main the italian stack with goats cheese with savoury scones & The moorish meze with different squashes which melted in your mouth, flafel & salad. For dessert a delicious cheese cheese board and a german choc cake with coconut ice cream. I would recommend this place & I am not sure why the reviews are so bad. It has already been recommended to book ahead. The staff were very friendly & helpful. The food was nothing like I had in a veggie place before. There has been real imagination & creativity put into it.

I am having a very simple baby sprinkle since this is my first boy but he's baby #3. My friend asked me what theme I want, and I still have no idea how I'm even going to decorate his room, so I have no idea what to pick! Please give me some ideas, ladies!
Cute Boy Shower Themes?
( . )( . ) Silver Ta-Tas
We are going with a lumberjack theme for our little boy's shower. The tables will have lumberjack plaid table cloths with a mason jar center piece. The mason jars will have fall leaves and long twigs coming out if them for the rustic, fall of the year affect. On the serving table, Their will be teddy bears dressed in lumberjack plaid shirts with two 24" pine trees sitting on each side of the frasier fur shaped donut tower. We are planning on doing mason jars with floating candles around the arrangement of food.
Rustic, unique, and NO PALE BLUE.

Our friends are doing a cowboy/country theme that's really adorable. I usually hate themes but hers is really tasteful and no weird paper plates or anything. She's Russian and the shower is in Norway, so it's particularly entertaining.
