Are there any finger exercises I can perform even when I am not near a piano to improve my dexterity and strength of my fingers?
An exercise that I was taught, have seen many times, and also have used with others. It can be done anywhere. Instead of tapping my fingers, I do this exercise.
Place your hand on the table (or whatever surface) as though you were resting your fingers on the keys. "Play" the sequence 1-3-5-2-4, repeating it over and over. Things to work on are your rhythm, make sure that each "note" you play is even. (For instance, 1-3--2 are more dominant fingers, but make sure ---2-4 are doing their share of the work!) Work on being able to keep that up for several minutes, keeping the 1-3-5-2-4 progression intact. I find myself lapsing into 1-3-5-43-5-1 or something equally funky if I'm not careful.
The temptation here is to do this with your dominant hand, but make sure you also do it with the other hand. The tempo will be much (much, much, much...for me) slower, so spend more timing working with that hand.
This should also be done with both hands, keeping each note in sync. For me, it usually ends in disaster. (:
I have used the various table-exercises mentioned above. I suggest getting the Hanon The Virtuoso Pianist in Exercises and the Schmitt book on exercises.
These will give you plenty of patterns to choose from as well as some good stuff do while at the piano.
Now keep in mind that it is more fatiguing to play on a hard surface such as a table, and with fatigue you can get muscle stiffness.
Having said this, you'll find that if you do the above exercises carefully and with relaxed arms and hands while at the piano, for maybe 20 minutes per day, there's no need to do table playing unless you're going to be away from the piano for quite some length of time.
Keep in mind what you are really strengthening are the tendons as there are no "muscles" in the fingers. All the work is really done in your forearms and biceps and the tendons are pulled over your elbows by your finger movements.
Book+video: Seymore Fink, Mastering Piano Technique (search)
It has good full arm exercises, to practise both with and away from the piano. The idea is to work out the muscles involved in playing piano - from shoulder to finger tips, and groove the patterns involved in playing, like the circular motion while playing an arpeggio.

Carter's (NYSE: CRI) reported fourth quarter earnings that surpassed analyst expectations by a wide margin.

National Cherry Blossom Festival Centennial
National Cherry Blossom Festival Centennial
Sake, wine and 5-weeks of fun in D.C.
In 1912, Tokyo gifted Washington 3,000 cherry blossom trees, and an annual tradition of celebrating that gift began. This year, to mark the 100-year anniversary of the gift, there will be 5 weeks of fabulous events to commemorate the beauty of the trees and the relationship of the two countries.
Many restaurants in D.C. are offering special food and drink menus to celebrate. And if past years are any indication, there will, of course, be a few tasty inventions (cherry-tinis, cherry bellini's and special cherry sake drinks, among others).
If you can't get to D.C. to join the festivities, you can have your own little blossom party at home. And Bottlenotes has some drink suggestions for you:
Make a Saketini
Since this festival celebrates the relationship between Japan and the U.S., we thought a sake pick would be in order. Bobby Flay has a very simple recipe here, and adding a cherry for garnish, in this case, would be in order.
Akita Seishu Dewatsuru Hihaku Junmai Daiginjo Sake is a non-vintage high-grade, medium-bodied sake, with hints of cherry. It's $50 a bottle.
Wine and Cherry Pie
You want your wine to compliment your food, creating a little party in your mouth. So when pairing a cherry dessert with wine, think about soft wines with a lot of cherry flavors, such as zinfandel. One suggestion:
Eberle "Steinbeck/Wine Bush Vineyard" Zinfandel 2008 (Paso Robles, CA) $26
Try Some Cherry Brandy
Bols is a popular cherry brandy. Click here for some cherry brandy recipes from the company's website. The brandy is $15 a bottle.

I am pleased to tell you, you guys impressed me. I asked that the boots come fast, and they came 1 1/2 days after I order them. Thank you very much. My son loves the boots and says they are perfect. He will be wearing them in the BWCA in a couple of weeks. I searched for a few days before finding exactly what Mike wanted, and the price was one he could afford. Mike is 14 and working his first job and he spent is first $100.00 at your on-line store. We are both happy and plan on returning the next time one of us needs a pair of shoes or boots. Thank you again very much."

A federal judge has agreed with an outside expert who recommends that North Carolina Central Prison staffers use hand-held cameras to record how some prisoners are treated once they are subdued.
U.S. District Court Judge Terrence Boyle signed a ruling Thursday related to a lawsuit alleging abuse by correctional officers within the prison's unit for disciplined inmates. The litigation is pending. The expert was called in to recommend how to improve safety in the meantime.
The state and attorneys for the prisoners agreed with four recommendations, but Department of Public Safety representatives said the camera requirement was burdensome and could cost millions of dollars.
Boyle overruled several objections and says the price tag was unsubstantiated by evidence.
Department Secretary Frank Perry says his agency will carry out the court's orders.

COLUMBIA COUNTY, Ga. -- Two women, including the adopted daughter of the victim, have been indicted in connection to a burglary in July.
Marlin Dean, 19, was indicted on burglary and theft by receiving stolen property charges. Dean allegedly stole over $20,000 in jewelry from her adopted mother, Renee Dean, in July.
Eva Lopez-Macias Nevarez, 38, was also indicted on burglary charges. She allegedly brought her kids into the Gold Shop on Washington Road and sold the jewelry with Marlin.
The judge refused to grant a bond for Dean on Aug. 14, saying she was a "flight risk."
Dean's adopted father, Scott, is serving a 20-year prison sentence after being convicted of two counts of child molestation in December.
He was convicted of sexually molesting one of his other adopted daughters, touching her and exposing himself to her.

Bella Manningham (played by Jennifer Poliskie) is very convincing as a vulnerable, panicky, young wife who seems to be losing her mind as Jack Manningham (played by Michael Jester) her murder-minded, thieving, nefarious spouse connives to not only drive her crazy, with the help of his maid Nancy (Morgan Schussler-Williams) who he has been having an affair with, insist Bella that needs institutionalization and that she is the product of her mother's insanity.
The twist to the story Gaslight, a made for TV movie from the 1940's that starred famous stars as Ingrid Bergman, Charles Boyer and Angela Lansbury, is caught up in the fact that Manningham is roaming the house searching for the Barlow Rubies that he'd the previous owner of the house, Alice Barlow, a woman Manningham, aka Sydney Power, had also murdered. A detective, Inspector Rough (Larry Chaney) with a curious, speculating, yet trusting air about them, that Bella and the maid Elizabeth (Carolyn Holbrook) seem to cling to has worked on the Barlow case and seen Manningham on the streets carousing with a few women…he is known to be unfaithful to Bella, and recognizes him as Powers. Manningham begins to catch on but not before the team of Bella, Elizabeth and Inspector Rough cook up a plan to capture the wicked, murdering, crook and he is put where he belongs…and the Barlow Rubies have been right under his nose the whole time, in a gift he gave Bella.
The play moves from one scene to the next smoothly and keeps your attention. It is strong in production and technical skill and the execution of the performance is flawless. This was a great performance and I encourage anyone who loves a suspense or drama to go see it.

Ill be swimming in Alaska this summer, and was wondering what a good suit recommendation is. Ive never bought a wet suit and am not looking for the highest quality as I will only be using it for the summer. What thickness should I get to manage the cold? Are sleeves necessary in that kind of temperature water. 45-50?
Hello Marina, since you will be swimming in that cold of water I would not go with a sleeveless wetsuit. It the temperature range I would suggest a 5mm suit. If you are going to be swimming for longer than 45min in that temp I would suggest going with a 7mm suit.

Kinder Castle Collaboration
Submitted: 01/23/2013
Story By Ryan Abney
- On Wednesday, Northland Pines Elementary students and Eagle River Fire Department had big plans.
The goal?
Build a castle with nothing but Milk Jugs and good old fashion work ethic. But Working doesn't mean you can't have fun.
"We focus on jobs and we also focus on heroes, community. This really fits into all aspects. And the kids are so excited to see a fire fighter these are there heroes." said Kindergarten Teacher Sarah Simac.
Teaching a few lessons is the goal for Assistant Fire Chief Nikolai Karl. He just knows kid's love getting their hands messy.
"Anything that's hands on with the safety house where the kids actually do something. They not only retain it but they get to be active and children like to be active."
If kids have doubts about scary firefighters--projects like these extinguish that thought.
"We get to go to the fire department in October for fire prevention and that's their first meeting with them. It just gets the kids more comfortable seeing them and they're just overall excited about it."

Food trucks roam the Northwoods
Submitted: 05/05/2016
- When you go out to eat, you usually think of typical brick and mortar restaurants, but a few local businesses might be turning the tide right here in the Northwoods just by working out of a truck.
"It's actually a growing community," says Chumpot Ratanawong, owner and operator of the Hanuman Express food truck. "It's nice because we talk to each other, we bounce ideas off each other."
You might see them on street corners or in other business's parking lots.
But one thing's for sure: you're going to get a delicious, made-from-scratch meal from passionate people like Ratanawong.
"I was in Chicago," says Ratanawong. "I was working an advertising job, and I just kind of got sick of that world. I've always loved cooking, so even when I was working that other job, I was always cooking and having Sunday dinners and that kind of thing, so I kind of just translated that into my food truck, because that's what I really love to do."
There aren't many places to get Thai food in northcentral Wisconsin, which makes the Hanuman Express that much more unique.
"I've always grown up with Thai food," says Ratanawong. "I've learned a lot from my mother, because she's a great cook. I've also kind of experimented on my own as well."
Those experiments turn into some of the best foods on the menu, and that's good, considering the lines can run as long as the truck itself.
"The main thing is just being prepared for it," says Ratanawong. "Sometimes we over-prepare, sometimes we under-prepare, depending on whatever. But we like to be ready for the crowds that come, and the better prepared we are, the better we're able to handle the long lines."
Though the work might be tougher, being in a food truck makes it well worth it.
"It's easier in the fact that there's less overhead," says Ratanawong. "You don't have to pay as much staff, I guess. So the costs of actually running it are better. Plus the advantage is that, they always talk about location being key. Well, if you're in a food truck, if you're in a bad spot, then you just move. It's as easy as that."
One food truck that seems to have found their perfect spot is Lola's Lunchbox in Phillips.
Settled into the parking lot of the R-Store gas station, they're now a staple in the small town.
"We started four years ago actually, with seven items on our menu, and three of them were dessert," says Lola's Co-Owner Mitch Adams. "It just kind of grew from there. We found a niche. We decided that we were going to cook the food that we liked."
Mitch and Stephanie Adams moved back to Phillips to be closer to family.
Steph had always been a great cook, and the two decided to give the business a shot.
"We kind of knew it was a coming trend," says Adams. "We didn't know how it was going to work in a small town, but we jumped in, and we've been able to make it work."
Lola's got started with what they call 'stacker' meat �" a combination of pulled beef and pork, but it's their signature garlic smashies that bring the people in droves.
"I don't even really know how that started," says Adams. "We don't deep fry anything in here, just because it's so small and tight, but people kept asking for sides, so [Steph] did the potatoes. She said 'I think I can do this. I'll just smash them on the grill.' She hard-boils them, smashes them on the grill, and bastes them in garlic butter. We started serving those, and then pretty soon, 'Hey I want those potato things,' you know."
Don't think for one second that just because these food trucks are in northern Wisconsin that they're not open year round, because they are. As it turns out, they might actually be more popular during the winter time.
"We set up a couple of days during the winter, the first big snowstorm we set up," says Adams. "We set up before it was snowing, it started snowing like crazy.

Northwood Carvers create works of art for local charity.
Submitted: 05/05/2016
- The Rhinelander Food Pantry recently received a generous donation from the Northwood Turners.
" The food pantry has just been a great boom to this area and it was needed for such a long time and now they are doing really great," says Northwood Carvers President Bill Kingsbury.
This group of 50 or so wood turners used their talents to create wooden bowls that were used as part of a fundraising event for the pantry.
"Our club made a total of 110 bowls," explaines Kingsbury.
This isn't the first time the club has stepped up.
The club also designed and turned pins for the Honor Flight.
Turning wood is an art form and starts by selecting the right tree.
Kingsbury says that he likes to turn them when they are green or fresh cut. When they dry out it is sometimes like cutting concrete.
There are a few rules to follow and decisions to make like deciding if you want the bark on or off.
"If you want the bark on the normal rule is if the tree is cut when the sap is not flowing the bark will stay on," says Kingsbury.

Emerald Ash Borer spreads to Wisconsin Rapids
Submitted: 05/05/2016
- The tree killing Emerald Ash Borer spreads to another northern Wisconsin community.
The DNR confirmed yesterday the invasive pest has now been found in Wisconsin Rapids.
It's the first time Emerald Ash Borer has turned up in Wood County.
A test was done on a sample collected near the intersection of Lincoln Street and East Riverview Expressway on April 27th.
Evidence of the infestation has also been found in other nearby trees.
Wood County was already in the process of being quarantined as a result of the discovery of Emerald Ash Borer in Stevens Point.
That means businesses handing wood products that COULD carry the Emerald Ash Borer must work to ensure their products are pest free.
Moving firewood from place to place is one way the pest gets to new areas.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - One of The Cummer's most popular pieces is Parade to War, Allegory by John Steuart Curry. This work of art was painted in the wake of the Great Depression and on the eve of World War II (1939-1945). Curry turns the pageantry of a parade into a scene of foreboding and dread, most obviously disclosed in the skeletal faces of the young soldiers. The panic and sorrow of the two women in the foreground contrast with the hopeful innocence of the central striding couple and the young boys gathering streamers.
Typical of Curry's work, this painting represents the isolationist attitudes and growing disillusionment expressed by an increasing number of Americans in the late 1930s.
John Steuart Curry enrolled in classes at the Kansas City Art Institute while still a junior in high school in rural Kansas. Initially he earned a living illustrating popular stories of the Wild West. Curry entered the most productive and successful period of his career in the 1930s. He taught at Cooper Union and the Art Students League in New York. He also received mural commissions as part of the Federal Art Project, which employed artists after the Great Depression.
Curry's public mural projects concentrated on themes of religious intolerance, racial discrimination, and social upheaval. In 1936, he was appointed artist-in-residence within the College of Agriculture at the University of Wisconsin, a post he held until his death. Curry is identified with the Regionalist movement through his depictions of the history, people, and landscape of the American Midwest.

For yet another moment most of the professional golfers in the East African region have failed to make a mark at the just ended Kenya Open in Nairobi over the weekend.
The lucrative European PGA Challenge Tour event for the continent has proved to be an uphill task by the homegrown professional golfers despite playing under conducive familiar environment.
Year in year out since the event secured sanctioning by the European PGA Challenge Tour in 1991, no home golfers or say an East African has managed to win the ultimate cash prize.
The event has been supported by Kenya's most reputed corporate firms including East African Breweries, Sameer Group and Barclays Bank to mention a few.
Out of more than twenty players, including six amateurs who competed in the tourney from the East African region, only six managed to make the plus two cut and had the opportunity to share part of the Euros 190,000 prize fund package courtesy of Barclays Bank.
Tanzania and Rwanda fielded only one player each while there was no representative from Uganda.
Kenya's professional duo of Dismas Indiza and Brian Njoroge tried their best to squeeze themselves into the plus two cut as Ganeev Giddie, Anil Shah, Nicholas Rokoine and the youngest ever qualifier Stefan Andersen also followed them.
The percentage of those Kenyan players and additional two others from Tanzania and Rwanda who managed to make the cut is less than 25 percent.
The six players who claimed a share of the prize fund looks to be a successful achievement as contrasted to the previous edition.
The regional golf professionals should thank the sponsors who are still maintaining support to the event but need to reciprocate through making the cut or winning the event as well.
Home ground advantage looks to be irrelevant when it comes to Kenya Open as most of the East African professionals happen to fell on the way side.
Tanzanian oldest professional Salim Mwanyenza has his Kenya Open record intact as there is no other player who has successfully made the cut since 2004.
Eight years are going now without a Tanzanian making the cut in the lucrative event despite several layers making appearance in the championship.
Kenya's Jacob Okello, who missed the Kenya Open title by a whisker during the 1998 edition, remains as the only icon from the region.
However with age and other lifestyle matters, Okello has flopped beyond anticipation and is struggling to make the cut in the event.
Okello has been joining the other casualties from the tournament and fans are left to wonder how he managed to come close to the title podium in 1998.
Still energetic and capable, Okello has an opportunity to reclaim his explosive form should he realise the need.
Kenya Open has been the stepping stone for most of the European and South African golfers to win elevation into the main European PGA Tour.
The late Seve Balesteros, Marteen Lafaber, Ricardo Gonzalez, Trevor Immelman are some of the successful golfers who used Kenya Open as a ladder.

Golden Gel Topcoat with UVLS (ultraviolet light stabilizers) retains brushstrokes while protecting prints, paper, and other materials from fading. Use these gels to add texture or create a clear barrier prior to working with paint or other materials.
They can also be used to modify sheen and provide a non-removable, water-based topcoat. Whatever you use them for, Golden Gel Topcoats provide the benefit of ultraviolet light filters and stabilizers for protection against fading. In addition, they help lower overall water-sensitivity, limit air exposure, and provide increased durability to artworks.
Overall, when used as a final layer, these gels greatly increase the longevity and lightfastness of virtually all digital media. However, if you are exhibiting your pieces without glass, the manufacturer strongly recommends application of a removable varnish in addition to the Gel Topcoat in order to facilitate cleaning and future conservation.
Golden Gel Topcoats are fully compatible with other Golden gels, mediums, and acrylic colors, and can be used to create gel skins, image gel transfers, decoupage collage elements, extend paints or increase their transparency, create a wet layer to work into, or simply as a clear ground to work on top of.
Digital Mixed Media Sample Set — This is a complete set of Golden's Digital Mixed Media products. The Set includes one 2 oz bottle of each of the following mediums: Clear Gloss Digital Ground, White Matte Digital Ground, Digital Ground for Non-Porous Surfaces, Gloss Gel Topcoat, and Semi-Gloss Gel Topcoat.

Any other name
Published In: Intelligent Utility Magazine July/August 2009
SONJA BOGART IS A WELL-INFORMED UTILITY professional. Still, a bulk of the literature she peruses about the smart grid leaves her more confounded than informed.
And at Wright-Hennepin Cooperative Electric Association, she's not alone with that sentiment. Fear of baffling members has prompted the Rockford, Minn.-based coop—serving two rural and suburban counties near the Twin Cities—to shy away from smart grid terminology while embracing the technology.
''Smart grid is now a buzzword within the industry,'' said Bogart, Wright-Hennepin's vice president of customer service, sales and marketing for the last decade. ''It has so many definitions and means so many different things to so many people, we're afraid we would confuse our customers by using it.''
Instead, the coop jam-packs its monthly newsletter and Web site with tips and updates about how its recent efforts to automate substations and replace old meters are contributing to energy efficiency, rapid detection and repair of outages, and the ability for customers to regulate and monitor their electricity consumption online.
''This fits with our goal of trying to give them better information,'' Bogart said. ''We've always heard that they want information about energy efficiency and we know that a customer with knowledge about energy use is more likely to reduce energy use.''
Thus far, she said, their 40,000-plus residential and commercial members—served by about 45,000 meters—have been receptive to the message. For instance, Wright-Hennepin mailed out detailed letters before embarking on its three-year rollout of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) in 2006.
AMI technology, one component of a smarter grid, seemed logical to customers because reading meters remotely saved money. It also allowed the coop to track daily energy patterns and pinpoint monthly meter readings.
''Our customers understand this new technology,'' Bogart said. ''Plus, I think the trust was there from the beginning. We have competitive rates [10 cents per kWh] with other utilities in the area. If our rates had been out of line, we probably would have heard from people about our investment in these meters.''
Once AMI installation was completed in 2008, Wright-Hennepin inaugurated a Web site service christened ''My Meter.'' Customers can track their energy ups and downs, compare their numbers to an average in the area, set reduction goals and access energy-saving tips.
''Initially, we installed My Meter as a customer service tool,'' Bogart said. ''We wanted to keep it simple. What we've terminology found is that it's also a great tool for handling complaints and questions about high bills. Our customer service representatives love this.''
My Meter has actually turned those representatives into front-line, smart grid educators via telephone and e-mail conversations with curious consumers. Those exchanges become more sophisticated as Wright-Hennepin members become well-versed about coop techniques to manage peak demand.
Soon, Wright-Hennepin will roll out a pilot program to test smart thermostats and home energy displays, said Lance Hovland, vice president of energy distribution. These devices will put even more information and control in customers' hands.
''I think we're ahead of the whole smart grid game,'' Hovland said. ''We don't have people asking for these changes, but we've gotten positive feedback. We're trying to find that right balance between economics and doing the right thing for the environment.''
The advantage of being a small and agile utility, Bogart pointed out, is the ability to initiate sensible programs without organizing focus groups. Front-line employees can ably handle one-on-one member ''lessons.''
And, who knows? If the term ''smart grid'' penetrates the local lexicon, the language might eventually creep into communications from Wright-Hennepin.
''We didn't really make a conscious decision not to use the words smart grid,'' Bogart concluded. ''We figure if you focus on what your customers' needs are, you're going to come out okay in the end. That's what we're trying to do here.''

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- What does this pretty blonde, this male gym teacher, this former substitute, this English teacher, and now, John Solano, a 29-year-old science teacher at McKinley Technology High School have in common?
"It's illegal, inappropriate and unacceptable," a Northwest D.C. psychotherapist said.
It can be considered the ultimate betrayal. For answers, we turned to Dr. Anita Gadhia-Smith, to ask why?
"Because the teacher was unable to maintain proper boundaries and ethics, and that's a problem in the character of the person it has to do with integrity and professionalism and mental health," Dr. Smith said.
You may wonder why anyone would risk jail time and the loss of their job over what could be just a quick thrill.
"Sometimes people are overpowered by emotions and powers and lose their sense of reason," she said.
Which doesn't make it right, but could make it more understandable. Dr. Gadhia-Smith says not all can be considered pedophiles, but regardless of the temptation, it's the teacher who must make the right call.
"Students are vulnerable because they look up to their teachers they have fantasies about their teachers in the teenage years when children start to become sexual it's a normal thing to have sexual fantasies but it's up to the adult to hold the boundaries," Dr. Smith added.

LAH committee revives mission-style town hall
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 21 January 2003 19:59
- Written by Scott Wong - Town Crier Staff Writer
The Los Altos Hills town hall committee Jan. 14 revived the mission-style design left for dead last November.
The 10-member committee, intent on lowering the cost of the design and construction from the original $4.9 million figure, finally agreed on $3.5 million.
Discussion of the rival citizens' style exposed some bitter feelings carried over from the November election.
"When you went through the details, 'half the height and half the cost' rang a little false to the people with the numbers," said Councilman Mike O'Malley, who serves on the committee as a financial advisor.
The committee is composed of an unlikely cast of political players who have all had a role in the decision-making process for the new town hall design. Breene Kerr and Dean Warshawsky said they were opposed to spending more money on the mission-style town hall until more citizen input had been gathered.
Planning Commissioners Bill Kerns and Carl Cotrell, who serve on the committee, voted to approve the mission-style design last July. Kerns lost the city council race last November to the two new councilmen.
The committee agreed that a "rehabilitated" version of the mission-style design, approved by council last August, will be one of four architectural styles presented to residents. Others will reflect rural, Craftsman and sustainable architectural styles. The town has already paid architect John Goldman over $350,000 in design and construction development costs.
Kerr, however, pointed to the fact that the town has $5-$6 million in unallocated reserves.
"We're not a family that wants to build a $5 million house but only has $500,000," he said.
The committee has planned to display the four architectural styles of town hall through the Internet and have residents respond by returning a town-sponsored mailing.

Blog by former M&E Senior Technical Specialist, Gary M. Davis. Primary focus is around Entertainment and Design Visualization workflows.
Take a Tour of the New 3ds Max 2016; NAB 2015 Theater Presentation
My 60-minute lecture from Autodesk University 2014. This session explores several 3ds Max software workflows throughout the production pipeline that accommodate fast turnaround for new, part-time, and casual users - as well as for seasoned veterans who want to create beautiful static images or animations without an in-depth "guru" knowledge of 3ds Max software.
This series of tips and tricks videos are designed to jump right in and quickly show a particular feature or workflow within Autodesk 3ds Max. This list will continue to grow, so please come back often and let me know what you think!
This is from the Autodesk Masterclass series for SigGraph 2009. Originally posted on the AREA website for the masterclasses, for some reason it got cut off in the fourth video so this is a re-posting of the entire presentation. Since the time of this recording, there have also been more features added to 3ds Max for non-photorealistic rendering. Most notably are the Nitrous Stylized Viewport options available to the Quicksilver GPU rendering engine.
This is a "living document" that will continue to grow - so please check back from time to time. This is an un-official listing of lots of FREE tools that are out there in the community for 3ds Max. This is obviously a partial listing and the focus here is not things like texture map or model libraries, but, rather, tools that run within 3ds Max that help workflows and pipelines along.
[Now current to 3ds Max 2016] // This document is not official Autodesk marketing or tech documentation. The original idea was to provide myself and others a means of quick access to feature-highlights for various releases of Autodesk 3ds Max going back to version 2008. This is NOT a full, comprehensive list of everything from any particular release, but simply a list of what I feel are "Significant 3ds Max Features by Release". Thanks to Rodrigo for the initial layout!
Now that Autodesk Composite is FREE, I thought I would take a moment to show users the proper way to set up the disk-based caching for the best performance possible. In this example, I forego using a SSD or RAID0 in favor of a Fusion ioFX card for caching and playback.
In this short video, I step way out of my typical comfort zone to share an interesting tip and trick for the TD's and scripting gang out there. Sublime Text is a popular text-editor that accommodates lots of favored workflows in the industry. This quick video shows how to add support to it for MaxScript. The result is the ability to open, edit and execute MaxScripts from Sublime, which also has support for Python (as does 3ds Max 2015).
In this short video, I take a look at how to use the one-click interop between 3ds Max 2015 and Mudbox 2015. Specific area of interst are two options for sending Mudbox sculpt layers to 3ds Max as Morpher modifier targets and secondly, sending Mudbox paint layers to 3ds Max as non-destructive, Composite maps for subsequent material editing.
In this short video, I show how users can shorten the tedious, laborious and time-consuming task of skinning and rigging a humanoid character.

D John Boehner: The fiscal-cliff talks were cast as a moment for Boehner to cement his legacy as House speaker — to use his years of legislative know-how to find a way to get a "grand bargain" that would set the country on the right financial course through the Republican-controlled House. The exact opposite happened when Boehner's "Plan B" failed to even make it to the House floor for a vote, a development that effectively sidelined him in the talks and raised questions about how much — if any — control he had over fellow House Republicans. It's a near-certainty that Boehner will be re-elected speaker Thursday, but his image clearly took a hit in the cliff negotiations.
Congress: Members of Congress proved that all the bad things people say about them were, basically, true. They do wait until the last minute to do anything. They are incapable (or close to it) of getting anything "big" done. Their idea of compromise is agreeing on a date sometime in the future when they will — seriously, this time — make the hard decisions. The funny thing? Members of Congress, individually, know that what they have done with the debt ceiling and the fiscal cliff is bad politics. But they don't seem to have the political will or ability to do anything else. Depressing.
F President Barack Obama: Obama's handling of the fiscal-cliff talks felt pitch-perfect up until his Monday event with "middle class" citizens. The rally felt too much like a campaign rally — Obama was repeatedly cheered — and the president himself was in a joking mood that didn't seem to fit the moment. Will it overshadow the fact that he got a deal? No. But it was an off-key note from the country's top communicator.

Great find! I recently got a copy of the atlas maior published by taschen though sadly haven't had much chance to look at it.
While working on my first major map ( http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...nkissed-World) ), I discovered that my university's library has a rather large volume with selections from 17th century Dutch cartographer Joan Blaeu. As I had already decided I wanted to populate my oceans with ship engravings, I knew I had to have these, and made a number of high resolution scans, which I then converted into gray scale brushes for GIMP. I have uploaded them as high-quality .jpgs so that they can easily be converted back into brushes either for GIMP or for Photoshop. As far as copyright goes, I double checked the front of the book, but didn't see anything, and since the atlas was published in 1662, it is certainly part of the public domain. You can pick and choose between the ships, or download a zip of the whole bundle (Many thanks to maackey for collecting the files in zip)

I also still want a copy of the Atlas Mior. Are teh scans inside the book good enough for seeing the linework properly?
@ Schwarzkreuz The copy that my university's library has contained maps with a number of different resolutions. In the interest of getting as many maps in as possible, most were quite small - though a large amount of detail could still be seen, but others were much closer to 1:1. In the interest of getting as much detail as possible, I chose my ships purely from the larger maps. I still have many of the scans I made - would you like me to upload one or two so you can see for yourself?
EDIT: Just saw your post on my finished map thread, which renders my previous question unneeded. I'll zip a couple of the scans and attach them here either soon.
EDIT: Each scan far exceeds the max upload limit (each is around 20,000 KB) but I cropped a portion of one for you.

The bottle seen in the photo above is currently the most expensive bottle of alcohol in the world. All previous bottles of alcohol that used to be the most expensive in the world are no longer so. The Diamond Sterling, as this bottle of finest tequila is titled is worth $3.5 Million making it the most expensive bottle of alcohol in the world to date.
"The Diamond Sterling" is a creation of Fernando Altamirano (Hacienda La Capilla) who used 2.380 kg of pure platinum and 4,100 brilliant-cut diamonds to create this 1.3 liter bottle which was filled with a blend of three of the finest tequilas to create what's allegedly the best tasting tequila ever.
Below is the induction video of The Diamond Sterling showing the moment when the most expensive bottle of alcohol in the world was first revealed to the public – in the presence of media. As said above, the value of The Diamond Sterling is $3.5 Million US and once the buyer is found (at an auction), the makers of the liquor are hoping to earn themselves a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records for the world's most expensive bottle of alcohol.
The only question now remains – how would you drink tequila for which you have just paid $3.5 Million? Would you actually drink from that bottle or just archive it behind a bulletproof glass for your guests to see? But if so, than what's a bragging right worth if you won't even drink the booze you paid so much money for?

Gas prices continue their steady decline, which is good news for all the travelers preparing to hit the road for Thanksgiving.
If you're filling in or near the Springs, the cheapest gas can be found at the Valero on Highway 85 near Fountain. Gas there is $3.19 a gallon.
If you're traveling north, the Western Convenience off Wilcox Street and I-25 in Castle Rock is selling gas for $3.23 a gallon.
Needing to fill up in Pueblo? Head to the Valero on West Abriendo Avenue and Polk Street, where gas is $3.19.
For those heading out of state, don't be surprised if gas is a little higher; Colorado's state average of $3.39 is slightly lower than than the national average of $3.43. Twenty-eight states have, on average, higher gas prices than Colorado.

I wrote in an earlier post about how much value there is in court records with reference to genealogical research. Now I'll be the first to tell you, they won't be in the first wave of record types that a beginning genealogist should approach. They are far to complex to dive into without first having a pretty solid grasp of your target family. But once you're past the oral interviews and the census and the vital records and the land records and probate and you're left scratching your face, going, "Hmm……where to next?" then maybe, just maybe, you're ready to wrestle with this 3000 pound elephant.
My favorite subject to research in court records is slavery. Probably because I've had so many "Aha" moments (as Oprah says) using them over the past few years. Slaves were the biggest, most valuable asset most folks had and turns out they fought alot about them. So if you're at the point where you are targeting a family for potential ownership of your ancestor (or even if you know they owned them already) there's much to be gained by checking these records. I want to point out something that I sort of "relearned" recently.
I'm helping my godmother Carole with her Hyman family from Martin and Edgecombe Counties, NC. If you are from the area, you'll find there was a huge white slaveowning Hyman family and one of them likely owned her ancestor, Arden Hyman. We do know, from a marriage record, that our Arden's father's name was Zion. You know how we know that? From a subsequent marriage of Arden in 1900 after his wife's death. That's 35 years after slavery's end, but that's where we found the name of his father while he was enslaved. This illustrates the principle of searching far enough in time both before and after the period you are primarily interested in–with all associated people.
So now we've got two slave names we're looking for. I pulled all Hyman wills in the area, but the will of Kenneth Hyman looked particularly promising because I see he names Zion, and he also owns an Arden. Those aren't common names like a Mary or a Tom. The will was proved in 1834 and was actually rather brief. While at the North Carolina State Archives (NCSA), I searched all the relevant court books which include the Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions as well as Superior Court. The goal is to milk every detail from the Hyman court documents that I can.
The "relearned" lesson came from the Loose Court Records. Those are all the little sheets of paper associated with a court case that are usually not written into any bound book, but kept in a metal tin case or other container in the
courthouse. The NCSA has the originals, so I ordered the entire box for the Hyman family. What a treasure trove. Each person has their own file folder, careful organized by year. Kenneth Hyman had a big ol' fat file. Don't we LOVE to see fat files? Anyway, because it was all 1800s handwriting and time was short, we paid for them to copy the entire file to be analyzed it later.
Kenneth died in 1834 with a wife and several children. The critical phrase in his will was that:
all the rest and residue of my property I wish to be held in common stock until my youngest child attains the age of eighteen years with the exception that each one as they arrive at the age of twenty-one years or get married shall have one thousand dollars in money or its equivalent in property at the time
And what the loose records reveal is that because his youngest daughter was only about a year old when he died, his estate did not go through settlement until 1851! The records then name each and every slave, including an Arden and a Zion, as well as the final division into eight lots and which child they went to.
- Lot No. 5- to F[rancis] M. Hyman: Arden, Eliza and child Hannah, General, Turner and Elsy valued at $2370
- Lot No. 6- to Margaret E. Hyman: Zion, Adline, Daniel, Milly and Hilliard valued at $2200
The ensuing years had been tumultuous: Kenneth's named executor, Theophilus, had also died during that time so an administrator had to be appointed. Theophilus had moved to Florida and died there, but not before purchasing land that turned out to be a scam–his relatives spent years fighting a court case there about that land. One of Kenneth's daughters had married and her husband had already sold away her interest in her father's estate before she could even inherit it. A brother Robert, who was ultimately named administrator, had beaten one of the slaves named "Boston" so badly, his siblings sued for damages.
What a horror this institution was, on a trillion different levels.
I remember reading that sometimes an estate wasn't settled until many years afterwards, but this is the first time I've seen that principle in action and the payoff in terms of slaves. The year 1851 brings me much closer in time than 1834. The settlement documents show the slaves being rented out for each year. Imagine if I had stopped searching Kenneth's files after the will and court books? Wow. I still have alot of research to do to tie together some loose ends on this line but I'll say it again: Court Records Rock.

Summary:In November, 1959, Truman Capote, the author of "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and a favorite figure in what is soon to be known as the 'Jet Set', reads an article on a back page of the New York Times. It tells of the murders of four members of a well-known farm family--the Clutters--in Holcomb, Kansas. Something about this story catches Capote's eye. It presents an opportunity, he believes, to test his long-held theory that, in the hands of the right writer, non-fiction can be as compelling as fiction. What impact have the murders had on that tiny town on the wind-swept plains? With that as his subject--because, for his purpose it does not matter if the murderers are ever caught--he convinces The... Full Summary >>

Configuring Your System
In Levels of Data Protection, we discussed various levels of data security.
When you configure your system, there are some additional questions to be answered:
- How do I divide the workload over several disks to get the best performance?
TRANSDB and its shadows should preferably be on fast disks, see Performance Aspects of Shadowing.
- How much disk space do I need for shadowing?
A shadow file occupies the same amount of disk space as the master databank file.
In general, you will have problems if TRANSDB or LOGDB run out of disk space. When this happens the system cannot continue. Therefore, it is important to make sure that there is enough space for these databanks.
How large TRANSDB grows depends on the number of transactions and how fast the background threads are able to perform the transactions on the shadows. When the transactions are performed on the shadows, the space in TRANSDB where they were stored is released.
How large LOGDB grows depends on whether the LOG option is used and how often backups are taken and DROP LOG is performed, since DROP LOG clears LOGDB and releases space (but the file size remain unchanged).
- Note: Try and keep the length of time the shadows are offline to a minimum. If you do not, you risk TRANSDB growing and filling the disk to capacity.

As Ash continues his training, he, May, Max and Brock encounter Prof. Birch. Meanwhile a boy's Nincada was captured by Team Rocket and it digs a hole to a temple. There they encounter the commanders of the teams they encountered before: Team Magma's Harland and Team Aqua's Isabel. How will this clash of Aqua vs. Magma go down, and can Ash and co. help the boy save his Nincada?
The gang is still training, but Brock spots someone climbing a cliff. It is Prof. Birch - he is studying a Wingull's nest, but it gets attacked, so he lands on a Loudred. The gang meets him again. Birch tells of his research, buw then May asks if that isn't dangerous, Max steps in to say that Prof. Birch is known for these studies.
Team Rocket overhear the conversation. Ash proposes to stay with Brich, to which he agrees to. Brock reminds them of training schedule, but everybody says they're going to do tomorrow. A plane arrives on the island, with people dressed in red clothes. Brich takes them to a Golbat cave, but they notice a end with a wooden door. Max opens the door - it was already unlocked.
The gang enters the room, seeing that it is a room where one could live. A boy enters the room, angry when they entered his secret base. He yells, forcing everybody to leave his room. The kid calms down, but someone knocks on the door again, with Team Rocket appearing before him and attacking him. Outside, another group arrives, on a submarine marked as Team Aqua.
Jessie's Silcoon has trapped Nincada, although James and Meowth think it is a Cascoon. They all contact Giovanni, their boss. Team Rocket lie that they set up a secret base, but Giovanni identifies it as a child's room. The gang leaves the cave where the Golbat have been, but May sees the child from the cave. Nincada digs under Jessie's watch, but some people dressed in red arrive. They are actually the same ones they encountered before in the ruins. The man asks Team Rocket who they are and they start to chant, but they get attacked by Mightyena.
The men start to dig using a machine. The child, Keanu, starts to explain that he does not like battles (as he always loses) so he built the base in the cave to train with his Nincada. May outrages, yelling at Keanu for not battling his opponents at all. Ash will train Keanu, but if he gets his Nincada back. The men have digged out to another cave with a giant building - it is The Cave of Origin.
Team Rocket plan to take whatever is inside the building and get out. Silcoon made a string rope to get to that building. Meanwhile, Keanu finds his room destroyed. The men have been depoyed to search the building, but they spotted some other men from water. The men from Team Aqua arrived, but the men in red are one step ahead. Mightyena uses Shadow Ball, but a Carvanha uses Hydro Pump to negate the attack.
The men identify the others - Team Aqua and Team Magma. Team Aqua enter the building, but Team Magma still operate. The woman from Team Aqua taunts the man from Team Magma, knowing that one has to possess Rose and Indigo Orbs to control the water and land. Both commanders recive info that it is only a shrine, not the Cave of Origin.
Both Teams retreat, making everyone confused of what they were talking about. Team Rocket cheer, as they'll take the treasure from the building. May's Silcoon uses Sting Shot and Ash gets down to the building. Keanu also gets down, but knocks Team Rocket down. Pikachu uses Iron Tail to cut the string on Nincada. Nincada uses Hidden Power and blasts Team Rocket away. The gang supports Keanu and Nincada for the battle.
- The dub version of this episode mistakenly calls Tabitha and Shelly by different names; Harland and Isabel respectively. This was later rectified in later episodes.
- In this episode, the Red and Blue orbs were referred to as the Rose Orb and the Indigo Orb respectively.
- Featured Pokemon: Zigzagoon
- This is the only episode in which Shelly doesn't wear her trademark bandanna.
