ES 699A: Master's Project
Synonym:76281 (for web registration)
Faculty:Jonathan Atwood
Semester:Summer 2011
Meeting Schedule:TBA (TBA)
Competency areas: CB, RMC & IND – Required for students who are NOT doing a Master's Thesis; EAO, EE & Cert – Optional, Elective with written permission of program director.
Restricted to Spring 2010 and earlier.
The Master's Project represents the culmination of a student's work at Antioch. It differs from the Master's Thesis in that the Project will typically be more descriptive in focus, and usually will not be defined by formal hypothesis-testing of theoretical concepts. The Master's Project will often follow standardized approaches used in a student's chosen field such as development of a regional land use plan, completion of a natural resource inventory, or preparation of a high school curriculum. Although not to the extent expected for a Thesis, students will be expected to research, develop and defend the methodological approach used in the project. Master's Projects will be expected to be professional in their presentation, but need not adhere to Antioch's formal Thesis Guidelines. The goals, content and format of the Master's Project must be approved by the student's program director and the ES Department faculty member who has agreed to evaluate the final document; supervision of the Project may involve a qualified person external to the department, or an ES Department faculty member.

An overview of the major events in invertebrate evolution.
Distinguishing features of invertebrate groups based on evolutionary divide
A list of student-submitted discussion questions for Invertebrate Evolution.
To build and enhance understanding of the relationships between key words and to practice useful skills for designing information architecture using the Card Sort strategy.
To build a step-by-step description of a sequence for analysis, discussion, or communication using a Sequence Diagram.
Students learn about invertebrate predators in an open ocean system and their adaptations to their environment.
Uses the symbiotic relationship between a fish and a sea cucumber to address life history, ecology and evolution of these organisms.
Covers carnivorous sponges as a model for adaptation. Compares similar adaptations between carnivorous plants and carnivorous sponges. Looks at how sponge adaptability informs us about early life forms.
Looks at velvet worms as an example of an old body form that still persists in some ecosystems. Seeks to get students to consider the basis of science and question their existing perceptions on the organization of life.
Looks at giant isopods as a vehicle to investigate conditions in the deep-sea, how these animals adapt to these conditions, and how these adaptation are similar to adaptations seen on islands.
Lights in the darkness don't just reveal things...they also hide them.
This study guide covers characteristics of invertebrates (digestive system, movement, reproduction), invertebrate evolution, protostomes vs deuterostomes, and the major invertebrate phyla.
These flashcards help you study important terms and vocabulary from Invertebrate Evolution.

Members of Parliament, government officials and the general public will today pay their last respects to Arumeru East MP Jeremiah Sumari (CCM), who died on Thursday at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) where he was hospitalised.
According to Sumari's cousin Oswald Kaaya, the last respects ceremony will take place at Karimjee grounds in Dar es Salaam.
Kaaya said before that, there would be Requiem Mass at Msasani Lutheran Church.
"His body is expected to be transported on Sunday to Arumeru district in Arusha region for burial on Monday," he explained.
On Thursday, National Assembly Depute Speaker Job Ndugai told reporters that the parliamentary steering committee would meet to make funeral arrangements.
"The parliament has lost two MPs within a short time. This is a great loss to us and to the nation," Ndugai said, referring to Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tanzania bishop Dr Alex Malasusa, who described the late Sumari as a good churchgoer despite his intellectual status and that he executed his duties diligently.
President Jakaya Kikwete sent a condolence statement to Speaker Anne Makinda following the death of Sumari.
"I have been shocked and saddened by the death of Sumari because he was a leader, who worked for his electorate and the nation as well," said Kikwete in the statement.
Kikwete also sent condolences to the family of the late Sumari for losing a leader and an important family member.
Sumari was Deputy Minister for Labour, Employment and Youth Development (2006-2008) and served in the same position in the Ministry of Planning and Finance in 2008.
His death comes just hours after President Kikwete led hundreds of mourners at the burial of Special Seats MP Regia Mtema (Cahdema), who died in a road accident last Saturday. She was buried at Ifakara's Mkuliya graveyard in Kilombero district, Morogoro region on Wednesday.

A Climax is the point in a text with the highest amount of tension. In Grand Theft Auto games, the climax is usually the final mission, or a group of missions towards the end of the game. A climax consists of the player battling a large force of a rival gang and/or mafia members, followed by the player killing the game's antagonist. In most cases, the weather of the climax depends on the player's timing, but in a few cases the weather is predetermined by the game. Some examples are End of the Line in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and The Sicilian Gambit in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.
There are two possible endings in Grand Theft Auto IV, each with its own climax. in the "Deal" ending, antagonist Dimitri Rascalov is seen killing Jimmy Pegorino, who Niko planned to kill himself anyway, and is killed himself by the player later in the mission. In the "Revenge" ending, Dimitri is killed two missions prior to the ending, and Pegorino becomes the antagonist after killing Kate McReary in the penultimate mission. Pegorino is killed by the player in the final mission.
There are three possible endings in Grand Theft Auto V, each with its own climax. In the last mission of the game, Devin Weston gives Franklin three choices. The option A is killing Trevor Philips, triggering the mission Something Sensible. The option B is killing Michael De Santa, triggering the mission The Time's Come. And, the player has the options to chose the optionC, the Deathwish, meaning that all the law enforcement agencies will come after the protagonists trio to kill them. If this option is chosen, the mission The Third Way is triggered, featuring the three protagonists working together, killing all the antagonists and solving the problems with the law enforcement agencies in the state.
Climaxes usually span across several parts of the in-game world during some sort of chase, but finally end in a confrontation between the protagonist and antagonist.
Similar to a climax is a mission that involves a climactic battle of some sort, but earlier in the game, before the actual climax. In these missions, the player usually kills a secondary antagonist. The protagonist may have had plans to kill the main antagonist but been unsuccessful. Some examples are Pier 69 in GTA San Andreas, where CJ kills secondary antagonist Ryder and minor antagonist T-Bone Mendez, and the mission High Noon where he chases and kills major secondary antagonist Eddie Pulaski. Another example is Light My Pyre in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, where Victor Vance kills antagonist Armando Mendez in his own home.

China Mobile will begin selling Apple iPhones in China on Friday, an event Apple CEO Tim Cook calls a watershed moment for the Silicon Valley company.
Stocks extend their year-end rally, led by big gains from Facebook and Apple.
Apple said it has signed a long-awaited agreement with China Mobile to sell iPhones through the world's biggest network of mobile phone users.
Apple might have a chance to pep up cooling iPhone sales in China if it finally can reach a deal with the world's biggest phone carrier, China Mobile.
From Microsoft's dream CEO candidate telling it to keep dreaming, to Apple inking an iPhone deal with China Mobile, here are best and worst results of the week in business.
Here's a quick rundown from the world of business and economics this morning: the things you need to know, and some you'll just want to know.
Apple and China Mobile have signed a deal to distribute Apple's iPhone on the Chinese carrier's vast network, a report says.
Delta Air Lines is being added to the S&P 500, possibly giving the stock a boost, as mutual funds that track the index have to buy it.

When it comes to globally known super-brands, Americans could be forgiven for thinking the U.S. of A. has a lock on all the most valuable names. But some of the world's most valuable brands are not only owned by foreign companies, they are names many of us have probably never even heard of.
Just a few years ago, most people around the globe viewed the U.S. as the world's leading economic power. Now, that title is passing to China, and here are 10 reasons why.
China Mobile, the world's largest wireless company, is in talks with Apple about a 4G-enabled iPhone. If their proposed collaboration on China Mobile's new TD-LTE network and compatible products bears fruit, the rewards for Apple could be enormous.
Apple buys many components for its devices from Chinese suppliers. Now, it's getting more aggressive about selling those devices in the world's largest cell phone market, inking a deal to sell iPhones through No. 1 wireless operator China Mobile, which could substantially boost Apple's earnings.
The Shanghai Composite is as close to a proxy for public firms in China as investors can get, and indexes are believed to reflect where markets think a nation's economy is headed. So what does it mean that, despite China's white-hot growth, the Shanghai Composite has been seriously lagging the S&P 500?
Tech giant Apple has blown by Internet behemoth Google to become the world's most valuable brand, according to branding research firm Millward Brown. See which other companies made the list.

Vodafone Group, the world's largest mobile communications company by revenue, has agreed to sell its entire 3.2% stake in China Mobile for $6.5 billion, close to doubling its original investment in the company.
Research-In-Motion's Blackberry is under pressure in the U.S. from rivals like the iPhone. So its plans to move quickly into China, the world's top mobile market, may have caused its stock to spike recently. But can the Blackberry succeed in China?

Google's stand against China's censorship could draw retribution, damaging its nascent mobile efforts there.

Both companies have close ties to the government.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin has emerged as the key force behind the search giant's decision to close its China-based search engine, citing his experience growing up in the Soviet Union. Google may suffer in the long run, but in this case, Brin has put principle above profit.
BlackBerry maker Research in Motion is the latest handset manufacturer to seal a distribution deal in China. The deal, aimed at consumers and small businesses, pits the smartphone maker against other established offerings, including Apple's iPhone.

Persistent work by a Greenville police officer landed a suspected purse snatcher behind bars, just hours after it happened.
Police say a woman was walking out of the Pitt County ABC Store on East 10th Street Thursday night when someone pushed her to the ground and took her purse. The victim gave Officer J.W. Young a description of the robber who was last seen running toward Riverbluff Drive.
Young first reviewed in-store video from the liquor store and from a nearby business, spotting the robber on video. Police say the officer canvassed the neighborhood throughout the evening and eventually spotted the man walking on Riverbluff Road. During a field interview, Young found the victim's credit card in the man's pocket.
Dametrice Johnson of Greenville has been charged with strong armed robbery, assault on a female and three counts of financial card fraud. The 26-year-old was jailed on a $125,000 secured bond.
Police say the victim's stolen credit card had been used at the nearby Food Lion, the 252 Tobacco Store, and the Oasis gas station, all within a few blocks of where the robbery took place.

The government has been urged to urgently address the plight of the millions of Tanzanians who have been hit hard by biting inflation reflected in rising prices of basic foodstuffs, water and transport.
People interviewed by The Guardian on the eve of May Day yesterday, complained of spiraling prices of the basic food items against static incomes.
According to the Bank of Tanzania, rice contributes more than half of the food inflation, mainly because of the lack of reserves of the commodity and low stocks as some farmers sell the stuff abroad where it is in great demand.
"This means our ability to feed our families has been severely eroded," said Denis George, a taxi driver operating from Sinza Kwa Remi in Dar es Salaam explaining that he now buys a kilo of maize flour at 1,300/- from around 700/- to 800/- a few months ago.
"Prices of rice and sugar have shot up to 2,600/= and 2,400/- per kilo respectively from 1,700/= a kilo of each. No food item has been spared. Poor people are being crushed by the prices," said George, noting: "What surprises me is that the government is quiet...no bold and affirmative measures are being taken to check the situation."
Another resident of Dar es Salaam, Abdallah Kajewa questioned the government silence on the rising prices, calling for enforcement of price controls, especially of staple foods, to cushion poor Tanzanians.
"The mechanisms used to control skyrocketing fuel prices should also be applied to control rising food prices. The minimum wage ranges between 70,000/- and 150,000/-, while daily basic requirements cost around 10,000/=. How can we, poor people survive under such circumstances?"
"The state of individual economy is very bad...the government must do something to reverse the trend," said a food vendor, Bernard Karugila, noting that previously despite the tough economic situation, low income groups managed to afford basic foodstuffs, which is hardly the case now. "The situation has become worse for the ordinary people...low income groups are now having one meal a day," he said.
Msokwa Muhibu, a civil servant described the current economic situation as "awkward...beyond repair" saying the government needs to institute measures to restore efficiency and effectiveness when it comes to the management of the country's economy.
A quick survey by The Guardian at Ilala, Kinondoni and Temeke markets found 100-kilo bag of rice from Mbeya and Kyela selling at 240,000/-, up from 180,000/-.The retail price of one kilo of sugar is 2,500/- up from 1,600/-.
Onions are selling at 3,000/- per kilo, beans at 2,000/-, vegetables at 300/- per bundle up from 150/-, sardines (from Kigoma) are selling at 20,000/- per 1 kilo.
Aisha Hussein, a mother of three and resident of Mwenge said she is forced to spend 15,000/- to feed the whole family daily, a cost she could hardly sustain on her meagre earnings of 200,000/- per month after statutory deductions.
She said she preferred to buy food from vendors because prices at the main market were too high.
Peter Kalinga, a vegetable vendor defends the high price, saying she used to buy one bundle of vegetables at 150/- but she is now forced to part with 250/- and sell at 300/-, if she was to at least cover her costs.
"I am not doing well in business... customers are not coming to my stall because of the rising prices," she said.
Speaking at a press conference yesterday in Dar es Salaam, Ubungo legislator and Chadema's Director of Information and Publicity, John Mnyika blamed the high cost of living triggered by increased inflation, rapid depreciation the shilling, failure by the government to check misuse of public funds, corruption and embezzlement.
The youthful MP asked the government to urgently step up radical interventions to reduce unnecessary public expenditures, broaden tax collection base, and other controls to bring relief to the ordinary people.

Gobbledegook is the native language of the Goblins. Barty Crouch Sr., Dirk Cresswell, and Albus Dumbledore are known non-Goblin speakers. It has been described as a harsh, rasping language, which makes it sound distinctly inhuman.
Known uses
- In the Three Broomsticks Inn, it is spoken by two Goblins defrauded by Ludovic Bagman in 1995.
- In 1997 when Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ronald Weasley overhear fellow fugitives Dirk Cresswell and the Goblins Gornuk and Griphook converse in Gobbledegook, while they were on the run from the Snatchers.
Known words
- Bladvak means "pickaxe" in Gobbledegook, according to Ludovic Bagman.
Gobbledegook, or Gibberish, are words that are nonsense.

- "Ron's old Shooting Star was often outstripped by passing butterflies."
- —Ron's Shooting Star's description[src]
The butterfly is a creature with the ability to fly. They are related to moths, and it have four states in life: egg, pupa, larva and adult.
In 1991 some butterflies could be found near Rubeus Hagrid's cabin.[1]
In 1993, shortly after Rubeus Hagrid was sent to Azkaban and Albus Dumbledore was suspended as Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry Potter and Ronald Weasley had to follow some spiders to which Ron protested and asked why Hagrid didn't say Follow the butterflies.
In 1994 when Beauxbatons Academy of Magic arrived at Hogwarts to participate in the Triwizard Tournament the beautiful Beauxbatons students conjured some blue butterflies.
Ron Weasley once had an old Shooting Star broomstick, which was so slow that it often was outstripped by butterflies.
In 1997 when Harry and Hermione Granger visited an abandoned electrical substation on their mission to destroy horcruxes, butterflies were seen flying around in the area.

Like many of the famous rock stars of the 1960's who lived fast and died young, Jean-Michel Basquiat exploded on to the world art scene in the early 1980's, made a sizeable impact on the development of painting, was befriended by his idol Andy Warhol, grabbed headlines as an enfant terrible, and then was dead at 27. Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child chronicles the meteoric rise and fall of this painter whose relationship to the art world was deeply complicated. Once the beloved darling of the downtown art scene, then castigated as a manufactured, one-hit wonder, Basquiat's legacy and artistic achievements have been firmly cemented with the passage of time. This is a perfect documentary to watch in celebration of Black History Month.

A resource for reliable information about significant people, places, events, and things in Minnesota history.
MN90: America's First Indoor Mall
MN90: At home on the Iron Range – Restoring a Jewish legacy in Virginia, MN
The sport of curling, according to Bemidji native and Olympian Cassie Potter mixes elements of golf, shuffleboard, chess, and bowling. MN90 Producer Andi McDaniel finds out why Minnesotans and others decided to combine all those games on ice.
Martha Ripley was a nurse by training when she moved to Minneapolis with her husband in 1883. Her expertise in medical care and her commitment to the rights of some of the city's destitute young mothers led to her to open a hospital dedicated to their care. Allison Herrera tells us about her remarkable life.
St. Paulite F. Scott Fitzgerald is considered one of America's greatest authors. MN90 producer Marisa Helms speaks with Minnesota writer Patricia Hampl who says though Fitzgerald's reputation was solidified in more glamorous places like New York and Europe, Fitzgerald always had a romance with the Midwest, and his Midwest was St. Paul.
The not-so tiny town of Chanhassen, Minnesota is home to one of the longest running dinner theater's in the country. It began when Herbert and Carolyn Bloomberg, both lovers of Broadway shows, asked themselves, " Wouldn't it be nice to have a little bit of Broadway in Chanhassen?" Now, four decades and over ten million visitors later, the rest is history. Allison Herrera tells us about the Chanhassen Dinner Theater.
Half black, half Ojibwe, George Bonga was the first person of African descent born in what was then the territory of Minnesota in 1802. He was a fur trader and a treaty translator that forged vital relationships with both Europeans and Native Americans. Allison Herrera tells us more about his important role in Minnesota history.
When Oliver Kelley began farming in Minnesota during the mid-1850s, he was frustrated by the low status of farmers and the isolation of rural life. So along with six others, he started an organization called the Grange, which as MN90 Producer Andi McDaniel explains, changed agrarian life in America by bringing farmers together to socialize and advocate for themselves. Includes an interview with Bob Quist of Oliver Kelley Farm.
The Honeywell round thermostat design is one of the most user-friendly and underappreciated appliance designs of all time. MN90 Producer Andi McDaniel explains what has made the "T86 Round" so popular and so enduring.
Made possible by the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the vote of Minnesotans on November 4, 2008. Administered by the Minnesota Historical Society.

Jared Mees Blogs Springfield
NEWS September 9, 2011
Short Track - 3 Sep 2011
Over the years the Short Track has always been pretty tough for me. Going into this weekend I knew it could be almost make or break. The two-day racing could really pack away some points. If you get some momentum rolling you can just carry it on. The May Springfield race was almost picture perfect.
This short track was smaller than it has ever been. Flat, which I liked and made for better racing, but very tight in turns 3 and 4. Qualifying did not go that well for me, but what else is new!! We made some changes and at least I was in the front row for the Heat. I got a good jump and was up to 2nd but Brad Baker got around me, pushing me back to 3rd. I really wanted to be in the Dash for Cash because the points race is getting tight. So we made some more changes for the Main Event... hoping to take us to the next step. Well, sometimes you go forward and sometimes you go backwards.
In the Main Event, after about 5 re-starts we finally got going. I had a decent jump to the front but faded quickly. The changes I had made to the bike really didn't pan out too well. I dropped back to 10th place. This was something I was not anticipating. For some reason I seem to always struggle at the Springfield Short Track. Not sure why but we are working hard to figure it out.
The Mile - 4 Sep 2011
The Mile was the next day and I couldn't wait to get out there again. This place is so much fun. I did something really special to honor Gary Nixon, who recently passed away. I had Speed and Strength make me up a really cool all-white set of leathers with the gold and blue Nixon used to run, and Troy Lee Designs paint me a Nixon Star helmet just like he used to wear, all in his colors. I can't thank Speed and Strength and Troy Lee Designs enough for working hard to get it all done in time. They actually had it ready to go for Indy but since it was cancelled, we show-cased it at Springfield. It was an honor to wear Gary Nixon's colors and I really enjoyed doing it.
I felt good in practice. The qualifying put me in another tough Heat race: Willie McCoy, Chris Carr, Jake Johnson, Brad Baker, Jethro Halbert and myself on the front row. Note that the first three ended up on the podium after the Main Event. I got a good start and was dicing it up with the guys back and forth. On the white flag lap I led it going into turn 3, pushed it in there hard, and came off turn 4 with the lead and won the Heat. It felt good to win this Heat with what could have been the front-row riders in any Main Event.
For the Dash we did not change a thing. I got off to a good start but did not have the traction I had before. I couldn't get going and suddenly it came right in and bang! -- I was in front. I was getting ready to draft by Carr and noticed his bike was missing and spitting. I went around the outside of Carr and Sammy went up the inside. I drafted Sammy at the line for the Dash win. I want to thank former GNC Rider Tommy Duma who donated a Nicky Hayden watch from Tissot to the winner of the Dash for Cash. I have always admired and wanted one of these watches and to earn it this way made it special. Nicky Hayden is like Rocky Balboa. He is an American Hero. To a flattrack racer this award has special meaning and is greatly appreciated.
For the Main Event we again did not make any changes as the bike felt great. I got off to a good start and was behind Johnny Lewis, dicing with him, but got trickled back to about 7th. The pace was very fast and as to the draft, if you were 3rd on back you couldn't sling shot by anyone. You would go to pull out and you couldn't go by. It was tough. Sitting in 5th place, there was a red flag with 5 laps to go. On the staggered re-start we got going and got up to 2nd on the last lap. But Carr came up and drafted by, putting me in 3rd going down the back stretch. With the draft, Willie made a really smart move and Johnson and Kenny Coolbeth went by. I ended up 5th. I was disappointed for sure as I had been fast all day, but made a couple of bad decisions in the Main. Good thing I did not lose much in the points race for the Championship. Going into this weekend I am only 5 points out of the Championship lead!
Thank you to all the fans and sponsors for the great support.

Sandy, UT (Sports Network) - Chad Collins had golf's magic number in his
sights Friday at the Utah Championship, but he closed with six straight pars
and settled for a 11-under 60 and the second-round lead.
Collins started on the 10th tee and went out in a Web.com Tour record-tying
27, notching seven birdies and an eagle over that blistering stretch. After a
par at the first, the 2000 Indiana State Amateur champion carded back-to-back
birdies from the second to reach 11-under for his round. Needing one more
birdie for the elusive 59, Collins instead parred out to finish 36 holes at
16-under 126, three strokes ahead of first-round co-leader Brian Prouty, who
shot 66 at Willow Creek Country Club.
Jamie Lovemark fired a 62 to join Prouty and Adam Hadwin (65) in second place
at 13-under 129 through 36 holes.
Ashley Hall, Alex Cejka and Peter Tomasulo also carded 62s to move into a tie
for fifth alongside Ben Martin (63) and Kevin Foley (66) at minus-12.

The government has earmarked 653m/- for resolving a water blues in Dar es Salaam, the House was told yesterday.
Reacting to questions directed to his ministry, Deputy Minister for Water Gerson Lwenge said the funds will be used for the improvement of water infrastructure and construction of water plants.
In his basic question Kinondoni member of Parliament Iddi Azzan had wanted to know when Dar es Salaam residents would have assured tape water availability.
The deputy minister said it was the aim of the government to ensure that by 2013 the city must have done away with water blues.
The deputy minister said currently the government was implementing a special water provision programme for Dar es Salaam.
He said the programme will include the expansion of water sources for Upper and Lower Ruvu water intake points.
"We are expecting to drill 20 deep water wells at Kimbiji valley and construct a dam at Kidunda. These projects will increase availability of water from 300 million litres a day currently to 710 millionl litres a day," said Lwenge.
The deputy minister said further that currently the government had no plans to construct a huge water pipe from Rufiji River due to the availability of current water sources that can meet the demand by 2025.
But Azzan pinned down the deputy minister, saying depending on the current water sources of Upper and Lower Ruvu and those of Kimbiji valley and Kidunda dam would not meet the demand for water in Dar es Salaam since by the year 2025 the city was expected to have a population of 10million people.
The minister said however the matter has been taken on board and the government will research to know what will be the demand for water by 2025 when the city's population would be 10 million people.

Nugent also had a problem bear hunting in Alaska because he didn't know the law. For someone with the national exposure he has and seting himself up as an example of a gun rights and hunting rights champion, he really should be ashamed about this. Either he didn't do the research (or didn't care) and paid the consequences. He didn't do any favors to us because of this. He lost any respect I might have had for him. Don't watch his shows anymore....didn't really listen to his music either!!

Most people know Rob Elowitch as a lifelong resident of Portland, Maine who runs one of the most respected art auction houses on the East Coast. Through his Barridoff Galleries, he sells great works by artists such as Winslow Homer and Thomas Eakins, to art collectors and museums all over the world. But he has a secret, which is shocking to his art world colleagues.
But Rob Elowitch has a secret life: He's a professional wrestler. Even his wife of 50 years has never seen him wrestle. Although he's now 66 years old, Elowitch travels all over North America and Europe to wrestle under the "mat name" of Robbie Ellis. He takes on men in their twenties in dingy wrestling clubs in primarily working class neighborhoods and defies anyone who thinks age might make him a sucker. Age is incidental to Ellis, not a handicap. And it is in this second career that he finds his greatest lust for life and passion for the world.
Canvasman is a portrait of a man who is less concerned with doing what is expected of him than he is with living a life that is fueled by passion and the excitement of the wrestling ring. His journey is one that teaches us that if we follow our hearts, even if they take us in unlikely directions, we can live our lives uninhibited by age and stereotypes and find out who we really are.
Canvasman: The Robbie Ellis Story is a production of White Dog Arts and IB-Redcar Productions.
Canvasman: The Robbie Ellis Story was produced by Gary Robinov.

You've just said a Torah blessing, or given a drash [short speech about Torah] or helped with something around the synagogue. Suddenly people are sticking their hands out to you for a handshake and saying "Ya-sher KO-ach!" with great enthusiasm. What the heck?
Don't worry, you haven't done anything wrong; just the reverse, they're congratulating you on a job well done. "Yasher koach!" translates, literally, "May your strength be firm!" but it's an idiom meaning, "Good job!" and it carries with it the hope that this mitzvah will give you the strength to carry on to future mitzvot. Think of it as a cheer.
It has a lot of variant pronunciations: YA-sher KO-ach, Y'Sh'KOICH, YA-sher-KOYch, and so on. The grammatically correct form when addressing a woman is "Tashiri kohech" but usually you'll hear the masculine. I do not correct the grammar when friends say "Yashar koach" to me – it's a compliment, just accept it!
The polite thing to say in return is "Baruch Tihiye" (Ba-rooch tih-hee-yeh). That means "blessed you will be," which might translate colloquially as "Back atcha!"

Officials have confirmed the recent E. coli outbreak did take place at the North Carolina State Fair. Investigators zeroed in on the building with the issues--the Kelley Building, a permanent structure that housed livestock for the fair.
"From the beginning of this investigation, we have been focused on finding answers about why these illnesses occurred," said Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler. "Using the information gathered by our Public Health partners, we can begin to assess whether additional safeguards can be put in place. Our goal is to put on the safest fair we can."
Officials believe the illness is related to animal contact, but they have not linked the E. coli outbreak to any one animal at the fair.
Health officials say they conducted a study with 27 people who contracted E. coli after going to the fair and 87 people who went to the fair but did not get sick.
The illnesses caused serious issues for some who contracted it. At least five people were hospitalized and three people suffered kidney failure because of the illness. At least two victims were from Eastern Carolina, in Wilson County.
This is the second time in the last decade that people contracted E. coli from the State Fair. In 2004, more than 100 people got the illness after visiting the petting zoo.

As some of you may be aware, hurricane season is upon us in South Florida and we are readying our sculpture garden for the possibility of storms. To start, we are taking down the hanging sculpture Celestial Presence by Dorothy Gillespie. Although the individual pieces are made of sturdy aluminum and can be bent easily back into shape if a strong wind hit them, they are strung up next to the windows with fishing line which could create any number of problems with tangling or colliding with the glass.
Dorothy Gillespie, Celestial Presence, 2007, polychrome painted and shaped-cut aluminum, 25 x 20 x 12 feet. Permanent Collection 2007.20. Gift of the Dorothy Gillespie Foundation, Inc.
How do we safely store these works of art? First, the fishing line that is strung horizontally between the hanging columns of sculptural elements is cut. The placement of the horizontal fishing line is needed so that the individual pieces hang in straight columns and do not get tangled with one another.
After that, the Facilities staff, Robin Archible and John Finewood, take down one hanging column of the shaped aluminum pieces at a time and wrap each piece separately. John is raised up in the boom lift and slowly lowers the line so that Archie can receive and wrap each piece in bubble wrap. They are then placed in large storage crates to await reinstallation in the fall. It takes about three days to complete the process.
John releasing the line.
John lowering the sculpture to Archie, waiting with roll of bubble wrap.
Final product: wrapped pieces ready for storage.
Once a hurricane warning is announced for the Boca Raton area, we take additional measures to ensure the safety of the sculptures in the garden. Depending on how the season shapes up, you may see more entries dedicated to hurricane preparedness but we will keep our fingers crossed that you won't!

The goals of the Office of Environmental Assistance and Protection and the Environmental
Assistance and Protection Board are to protect public health and the environment
of Forsyth County by minimizing the impacts of environmental contaminants, educating
the public about pollution prevention and promoting conservation of natural resources
in the community.
The Office of Environmental Assistance and Protection was established in 1968 at
the request of local industry. Originally formed as the Air Pollution Control Department
to deal with such issues as air quality monitoring, permitting, open burning, and
visible emissions, the name was changed to Environmental Affairs in 1974 to more
accurately portray its involvement in the protection of land and water as well as
air quality. In 1976, the Environmental Affairs Board was established for the purpose
of advising the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners and assisting the Department
with topics related to environmental management. In 2011, the name was changed to
the Office of Environmental Assistance and Protection to reflect reorganization
that included merging with the Community Hygiene section, formerly part of the Environmental
Health Division of the Public Health Department.

Improving the voxel in surface representation mode
Posted 08 May 2010 - 12:34 PM
Let's talk about this video. http://www.vimeo.com/11555496
I think that there is some room for improve how the cursor moves on the surface. In the beginning
of the video you see how I slide the cursor over the edge. You can see that rotation of the yellow circle is calculated
according the area inside of it. Even when the center of the cursor is on flat surface it's rotating because yellow circle already
passed the edge. Then I move the cursor to other edge. The yellow cursor dosen't rotate. Why? Because it seems that surface tracking
is camera based. If the surface is hidden (behind the edge) it dosen't change the cursor rotation. For me it sounds better if this could
working diffrently. It should matter also what is behind the corner. Now 3d-coat dosen't do that. MAybe this is the reason why sometimes
spikes are created so easily.
EDIT: well, in my tests it seems that all spikes in surface representation always happens because of this, so fixing this
and we could have spikes free models.
Posted 08 May 2010 - 12:44 PM
1. The rotation of yellow circle depends of the angle of the camera. Here is two images. I'm placing the cursor exactly
in the same spot on the surface, but because the angle of the camera is diffrent also the angle of yellow cursor is diffrent.
If we could change this from camera based into surface based rotation, that would help a lot.
2. This problem occurs when the angle of the cursor normal and the surface point normal is over 90 degrees. 3d-coat moves all
the points that are less than 90 degrees but leaves all the points over 90 degrees where they were. After that those points are
out of the system and the only way to save them is to go back to voxel mode and smooth them out.
Posted 08 May 2010 - 02:33 PM
Question: after finishing with surface (voxel) mode do we have to turn to voxel mode before go for retopo etc?
I had a crisp enough sculpt and in the end I returned to voxel mode, had to smooth it, finished with a typical not crisp 3DC result.
For the moment do what you can in voxel mode (never surface mode) do some topo, increase resolution of the cage as much as you can (unfortunately not too much), export this quad mesh to zbrush, reconstruct sub levels and have a nice and creative day. Later you still can import the obj again and paint textures in coat (if you like). And still, I enjoy working with these two apps together. In a few months you'll be able to do it in blender too (instead of zb). (I already did it)
3DC offers some possible workflow that is not working (or has many bugs) for the moment.
I can't live without voxels and have to re topo and re sculpt again, thats OK.
I haven't seen any crisp sculpt in the 3DC gallery so far! If there are some, these involved zbrush too. Lets face it. After all zb has some reputation...
I maybe wrong but I'll say it again haikalle, avoid surface mode!
Posted 08 May 2010 - 07:36 PM
I really like the voxel surface mode, because it's fast. Sure there is spikes and etc... but it's fast.
Posted 08 May 2010 - 07:49 PM

You are kidding right?
I haven't seen any crisp sculpt in the 3DC gallery so far! If there are some, these involved zbrush too. Lets face it.
Juan Carlos take on Pixar's Mr.Invincible is super crisp and that is pure 3DC work.

This is much crisper than these examples above
but all these are still rendered in voxel room. I didn't managed to export this 'crispness' to other apps though.
IMO if you believe in 'pores' go for a zbrush license. A base 'box' modeling and a surface zb sculpt is the best way. If you believe in real sculpture then you're in trouble. Thats why I bought 3DC the second day I tried it. Many bugs, lot of work, optimization is needed but its a more appropriate approach. Now I can export it in zb and do some fine details, some precise simple lines. You may not like what I said, but thats what I believe my friends. Please don't misunderstand me, not an offense.
I'm not interesting in VG, cinema and comics industry, that's for sure. Feidias, picasso, giacometti, deChirico, rodin, degas, ancient Egypt, Americas etc etc are my references. And the only tool I'm asking in this topic is a nice flattener .
Posted 09 May 2010 - 03:35 AM
And did you ever ask Juan about lag time and having to wait for merging and quadrangulation/exporting an object like that? Just because you can do some decent painting in Microsoft Paint, if you had the patience and put in the extra effort, but we all know how that compares to doing the same thing in Photoshop or Corel Painter....touche deuce.
Posted 09 May 2010 - 06:10 AM
Saying "this is the problem" is good, but saying "this is the problem and this is the way
how we can fix it" is even better. Now when Andrew is taking some time to be with his family awhile(with
very good reason) we have time to think how 3d-coat works under the hood. And maybe find
something helpful for Andrew, when he comes back.
Posted 09 May 2010 - 09:00 AM
I don't know i like to be able to predict my actions, bumpmaps are a post work in texture mode, not a sculpt thing. All I get in 3dc is large smooth shapes, which is fine in early stages, but when i want to tighten my sculpts i simply can't with the performance issues.
All i, and i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one at all now, is a way to work progressively on the structure of the sculpt to define clearly my planes and build all the little nuances of a sculpt. Perf don't allow that.
And haikalle may be onto something here for starter.
Posted 09 May 2010 - 11:12 AM
Not at all.Its extrude brush with the sharp pen.So its pure sculpting my friend.
These above are just random effects.
I posted the old man in relation to the other dude comment about the impossibility to do wrinkles and stuff.
I know you are not concerned with this.
Sorry,but no.
When I say crisp sculpture I mean something completely different. Its about simple crisp precise forms. Precise!
This is much crisper than these examples above
Juan's take on Pixar charcter is much crispier than your bust copy.The lines are more defined and sharper.
Your bust has absolutely no definition to the mouth (its not a critic,anyway..its a copy)
but the fact is that its far less "simple crisp precise forms" than that "silly" movie character.
Also when you say that "Precision is the heart of art" I would just like to point out that a lot of artists that you quote as references
would not agree with you at all,especially Giacometti.
"The Wind In the Willows", Chapter 7 "The Piper at the Gates Of Dawn"
Posted 09 May 2010 - 12:05 PM
I'm older than you thats all, have a look here http://www.cangelaris.com/art_zisi.htm
Haikalle: you're right, I'm trying to show how I see 3DC, what kind of workflow we may expect, what's the 'nature' of this app, why all these weak points exist. Its easy to say I want a voxel modeler with a zbrush behavior, then convert this to quads, paint it etc etc. And most important, all these working smoothly. If this can be done, then 3DC will be the best app ever. For the moment I wish a simple combination of two or three tools, an optimization of topo and uvs rooms. Thats all for the moment.
Posted 09 May 2010 - 05:17 PM
That is just a head. Try creating a full human figure at that detail level and you're going to suffer. It'll be 64 million polygons at least and 3D Coat would die. ZBrush can handle that kind of detail by temporarily dropping down to a lower subdivision level whenever necessary.
I agree with Michalis, high poly modeling isn't just about superficial details like skin pores, it's also about sharply defined edges on things like eyelids and the skin fold above the eye, or nicely defined finger nails.
Posted 11 May 2010 - 07:18 AM
I did some more testing and let's take this picture to talk about it.
Here is a surface and and the cursor. In current 3d-coat, the cursor would be flat because the angle of the camera
but here I fixed it into surface based tracking to show something else. When you add the surface. That's okey. You can't
create spikes when you add surface. It's because then it only works with points where the alpha is less than 90 degrees.
In this situation it is good.
But the problem is when you use CRTL, take a surface away. In the picture you can see that inside of radius there is points with
alpha more than 90 degrees. Again they don't move and that is bad in this situation. There is diffrent ways to make this better.
If you have used sculptris. It actually smooth unwanted spikes. That is the reason why the surface moves after a stroke. Maybe
someone of you know a good way how to handle these situations, so please give some feedback.
Posted 25 May 2010 - 09:56 AM
This is from voxel wire. You can see that the density is uneven all over the surface. Even the "very dense" area, there is many edges but they are going into
same point which is bad for detailing the surface. I see two options how we can make this better
1) Focus to Voxels: Improve the algorhytm how the voxel surface is build. The goal to have smooth density
all over the surface.
2) Focus to Voxel Surface: Right now if we press that small icon to go to surface mode. It leaves mesh density like it is in the picture.
We need "smooth all" button in surface mode. That would help to get smooth density and from there it would be better to start multi-resolution
surface sculpting in the future.
Posted 25 May 2010 - 10:40 AM
Last one is in voxel surface mode and manual smoothed area and then stroke. This gives the best results. So overall result from this test is that base mesh density have to be
smooth if we want to nice results.

Last week, 47 states had widespread flu activity. There was also an indication the flu season may have peaked in the southeast. Friday's figures should show whether that was just a fluke or whether flu cases may truly be beginning to diminish.

The head of the Secret Service is stepping down after 30 years on the job.
A Secret Service spokesman says Mark Sullivan will retire effective Feb. 23. His replacement hasn't been announced.
Sullivan joined the Secret Service in 1983 after three years as a special agent in the inspector general's office at the Department of Housing and Urban Development. He was appointed director in 2006.
Sullivan could have retired from government nearly 10 years ago but chose to stay on for what turned out to be a turbulent period for the service.
Last year, in testimony before Congress, Sullivan apologized for the conduct of Secret Service employees caught up on a prostitution scandal in Colombia.

It is of vital importance that your Atmos clock balance, which is suspended from an extremely fine wire, be locked before any transportation, even for small moves within an apartment, as well as for setting the time.
To do so, push the balance blocking lever to the right up to the thrust stop. This locking procedure must be carried out when the balance wheel stops, before oscillating back in the opposite direction.
For transporting your clock, please use the complete original packaging.

It is not yet clear whether any marketing jobs will be lost as a result.
Whitbread will merge its Travel Inn brand with Premier Lodge under the name Premier Travel Inn later this year.
Premier Lodge's marketing department will shut in November, with control of marketing operations passing to Whitbread's offices in Luton. Travel Inn's sales and marketing director Gill Baker has been handed marketing responsibility for the combined chain.
Baker, who is reviewing Travel Inn's ad agency arrangements, said that it was too early to tell whether Premier Lodge brand development director Nick Read would stay with the company.
The acquisition of Premier Lodge increases Whitbread's share of the budget hotel market from 30% to 50%.
Whitbread also acquired 19 pub restaurants for £31.2m as part of the takeover. These will be rebranded as Brewers Fayre by March 2005.
