43 year old man | Los Angeles, CA, United States | Seeking women 28-35 within 5 miles
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken
Thanks for visiting. Call me diverse - from my ethnicity: a mix of Italian, Irish, Hungarian and Ecuadorian - to my personality: a mix of passionate and playful, silly and serious, homebody and hellion, with a (hopefully) healthy thirst for personal growth and adventure. I'm equal parts athlete and intellectual, but exploring my creativity and spirituality is where I find my greatest joy. I'm a professional writer/actor/director and grateful to be making a living doing what I love and living my dream. I lead an active and healthy lifestyle and only date people I can share that with. I'm on here looking for a partner aka playmate aka somebody I can create with as we make our way around this playground of life. I definitely appreciate people who are fun and like to laugh, but lets be real - everybody is "fun" when you're getting to know them...then one day all that other stuff comes up. It's the "stuff" that really makes or breaks things in relationships. So if you're like me, you've realized you have stuff, and you've worked on your stuff, and are now ready for somebody else's stuff, and to deal with the challenges of creating with another person. Like me you're a good communicator so we can easily talk through any stuff and focus on having fun and laughing....like at how we met on the internet.

Some other viewpoint
meditation, the beach, movies, sushi, yoga, jogging (ok, it's not my fave - but I love how I feel when I do it), basketball (playing, watching and talking smack about), long dinners, late mornings, deep conversations, dancing...and more dancing
I can (and do) have fun doing just about anything and if the company is right...it's even better.
The Soulmate Experience, Ask and It Is Given, Hunger Games trilogy, Outliers, The Artist's Way, Mastery of Love, and lots of really not-so-great scripts people swore were great.

what is the point of this thread?
so you can`t afford one then
only the dead have seen the end of mass motorized stupidity
(well if he was alive today he would have written it)
I thought for a second the white decals on the seat tube were cutouts. That would look pretty cool.
Times like this, I wish we could sage threads here on BF.
They're not cutouts? Damn, have to cancel my order. That would have gone nicely with a miche seatpost.Originally Posted by Shiznaz
calling carbon fiber plastic is stupid.
You gotta admit, it's a really ugly frame though. The decals are bad enough, but look at where the headtube and the stem meet, there's no way to get a negative rise stem on there... what kind of a track bike is that??????????????

Can't you just file a bit off the head tube?Originally Posted by Mike552
Ride bikes, not other people's dreams.
You're probably right. But, not like you said, not everyone uses positive rise...the stem rise/drop can do so much for proper fitting, I would never buy a frame that limits me in that aspect. That's just bad design, period.Originally Posted by bonelesschicken

People will always feel threatened by the new and different things they are completely ignorant about. Hate away predictable, backward fools. Ha ha.
Unless you know where and how it was made I don't see how you can make that claim. I don't find it ugly either, but whatever.
Same here. Miche seatpost would match it well.Originally Posted by Shiznaz
i like it. i would ride it.
i don't like it, but i have to say this is one of the first CF bikes i haven't liked. i would still ride it, though.
soh-CAh-T-oa-meter 0 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ X ~ ~ pi
I'm noticing that a lot of the CF track bikes use relatively slack ht angles. I'm wondering if the extra stiffness of the carbon fiber, compared to steel, just allows the use of more road-like geometry while still providing a stiff, responsive frame, or if there is some other reason for it (like poor design).
as has been said, short headtubes + lots of seatpost = aero position without having to use a drop stem.Originally Posted by Mike552
In fanct many sprinters will use a positive rise stem.
if you really need a drop stem, then a LOOK ergostem would solve your "problem"
I really doubt that it's poor design. I mean, I don't know who knows more about the ideal ST angle for a track bike - a bike company with thousands, if not millions, of dollars of R&D and input from professional riders, or a bunch of kids on the Internet, who fetishize vintage bikes that were designed in the '60s.Originally Posted by sivat
I'm not trying to be insulting. I'd much rather own a vintage track bike from the '60s, but if I were getting paid to ride a bike, I'd much rather ride a bike that had the R&D done to ensure that every last bit of energy is going to propelling me and my bike, and not fighting wind resistance and a flexible frame.
Hear hear! The frame wasn't designed to be ridden off the velo, much less pot-hole marred streets. For it's intended purpose, the frame looks kind of *****in'.Originally Posted by Doctor Who
Slack headtubes make for easier (in other words, more roadie-like) pacelining. At least that's the logic I've heard in the past.

Abstract: Omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FAs) have been positively associated with prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. Intake of high amounts of trans fatty acids (TFAs) is correlated with increased risk of coronary heart disease, inflammation, and cancer. Structured lipid (SL) was synthesized using stearidonic acid (SDA) soybean oil and high-stearate soybean oil catalyzed by Lipozyme® TLIM lipase. The SL was compared to extracted fat (EF) from a commercial brand for FA profile, sn-2 positional FAs, triacylglycerol (TAG) profile, polymorphism, thermal behavior, oxidative stability, and solid fat content (SFC). Both SL and EF had similar saturated FA (about 31 mol%) and unsaturated FA (about 68 mol%), but SL had a much lower n-6/n-3 ratio (1.1) than EF (5.8). SL had 10.5 mol% SDA. After short-path distillation, a loss of 53.9% was observed in the total tocopherol content of SL. The tocopherols were lost as free tocopherols. SL and EF had similar melting profile, β' polymorph, and oxidative stability. Margarine was formulated using SL (SLM) and EF (RCM, reformulated commercial margarine). No sensory difference was observed between the 2 margarines. The SL synthesized in this study contained no TFA and possessed desirable polymorphism, thermal properties, and SFC for formulation of soft margarine. The margarine produced with this SL was trans-free and SDA-enriched.
Practical Application: The current research increases the food applications of stearidonic acid (SDA) soybean oil. trans-Free SDA containing SL was synthesized with desirable polymorph, thermal properties, and SFC for formulation of soft margarine. The margarine produced with this SL had no trans fat and had a low n-6/n-3 ratio. This may help in reducing trans fat intake in our diet while increasing n-3 FA intake.

The only people I've ever encountered who have problems with DA/SA transitions are people who lack an understanding of the fundamentals of trigger control, frankly.
Take a DA/SA pistol to an IPSC match, or even out to a hayfield and time your splits. And that's only playing around. In a real stress situation, you don't have fine trigger control. I've seen guys shoot beretta 92's well, but I sure wouldn't sneer at the benefits of a consistent trigger pull in a combat handgun. Why introduce complexity?

Artistic insecurity by DamaiMikazWatch
And in contests you sees others art and art style, get some hint of their art so you can improve your own! that is actually whole the point with DA
I totally respect this and applaud you for admitting this whole thing, and you're totally RIGHT, at least you DO have the guts to admit it. unlike others out there (and it seems to be nearly everyone) at least you're BRAVE enough to tell the truth.
And don't worry, I'm not anywhere near as good as anyone on here but I'm in the same place as you, don't worry you're not alone, not at all.
I figure, if you keep trying to get better and better, work will tend to get better lol.
It happens. Offten for us. Just go with the breakdown. Some record every thought during the break down, to use later, but what ever you choose- just let it flow. There is catharsis in it. Break down. Let it all crumble around you, let yourself crumble, and when there is "nothing left", when you are empty, remember this:
You are feeling empty. You are there. The pieces are fallen all around you, but there you are.
Continue forward from that point. Continue forward to your next break down, and do it all again.
That's the one lesson I've learned well enough to feel confident to advise others in. Don't die, just shluff of the old, break under the pressure, let it all go, and then move forward through the dark, the empty, the directionless forward. Really, that's the only direction you ever go, however it may appear. There is no shame in the cleansing that comes from the loss. There is always more to move toward.
I'm glad that you came to this realization and feel better. Very brave of you to post about it.
I Know exactly what you mean in everything you've said. As a fellow writer, I know what you mean in that you fear what it is other people think of your work especially since you paint and and draw as well. I actually started writing in high school in a class i really didn't expect to like. Creative Writing I, and when I first entered the class, I was surprised by the number of people there. Thinking it over, I half expected most of them to be looking for an easy grade. By the end of the year, I was awing over everyone's pieces and talking with them all about what it is they do and want to do. It took me quite sometime to realize it, but the class slowly turned to me for endless opinions about their works, and the teacher referenced any of the works I had shared with her in almost any moment she had. I was astounded and extremely honored, but then I quickly grew concerned with what it is other people think of what it is I do and say. Of course people arose that completely disagreed with me on almost everything, but something I was always taught to do since I was little, was to understand what it is others are trying to say, because everyone and everything has a story, which leaves them with a reason, purpose, and a lesson to learn from. From all those that stood up against my pieces, calling them "trash" and "no good" (Which actually wasn't too often to be honest) only made me stronger in where I stand and open my mind to another world in which their opinions reside, for who they are isn't wrong, but what they say isn't necessarily true either. I think that in facing those that oppose you, as an artist can only make you stronger if you understand what it is they have to say and why. The only time you can be brought down in anything, not only art, is if you fail to understand why it is people say what they say, and refuse to accept that who you are is not who they are, and that who they are isn't a negative influence in your life, but another window for you to expand yourself through... Whether someone likes it or not, doesn't mean you should quit or continue. What makes you happy and what doesn't is what decides where you will go. What you feel as an artist is what puts together your work despite of who you are or what you look like. It puts together who you are, and no one can deny that. Those that refuse to understand only limit themselves.
Remember this: People say we can't control our feeling but that isn't true. We feel what we want to feel. There's nothing bad about being angry or sad or even depressed. It's just the way we feel we must feel at the moment. So don't try to make it go away or it'll get worse.
Sometimes, you just need to let it all out.
Only recently stumbling across you I agree with the masses that your work is amazing. Artist's block is never nice for anyone, let alone with feeling the added pressure from people considering it as an example.
Maybe take a break from uploading work? Draw what you want to and how you want to, ignore what other people say or do, it's your creation after all.
I'm sorry you feel this way, but all the best that everything gets better soon. ^.^
You will definitely make an error somewhere along the way, but it won't be what you expected, and the things you worried about won't be nearly as important when they happen as they were when you thought of them. The only way to get to the top of the mountain is to make your own path.
Also, I highly suggest mind mapping.
Wow! This is apparently a common feeling in an artists life, even among people that are obviously good like you.
I pretty much have to learn everything on my own, starting with English... when I got to the U.S I did not speak any English and the job I got was was salling magazines door to door across the country.
With in a month I understood everyone most of the time but they sure did not understand a word I was saying, it took several frustrating months, and sometimes if I am in a place like Kentucky when I speak, people look at my husband in a "what did she said kind of way..."
And just like in that story, the things I learn on my own, like drawing or painting I absolutely doubt myself.
Wondering how much better I would be if someone actually teach me in stead of me trying to learn on my own, especially "writing" since in that category I don't get a single comment,
that kind of let me know I suck, I just don't know how much since people won't say a word when they read my stuff LOL.
also afraid that people would see my stuff and say that's garbage,
but even when I am afraid and have little to no technic I still make things, simply because it makes me happy to come up with new stuff
It might not help in any way, but at least it gave me some insight in how it works.
However, as you said, the problem is not only that you might your art isn't that great but also your rising fame on here.
I can't give you any real advice on that matter for obvious reasons, but then again, sometimes it's easier to analyze a problem from a distance. You struggle with being called an example since you feel like you owe it to those people to only create great things and also have to act like an example – however that might be.
However, think about it: all your watchers followed you because they thought your art was looking good, because your stories amused or touched them or because they liked your opinions that you wrote down in your journals. I can imagine there being a lot of pressure with the amount of attention you get here, but it all comes down to the fact that you've gotten this far simply by being yourself and doing what you liked. There is absolutely no reason to change that.
Furthermore, when it comes to people you an example, I bet you yourself have lots of examples that inspire you to continue doing what you like to do. Are all of their galleries filled with perfect work where no one can point out anything that might have been done better? I bet not.
Even though it's personal, if I look at my examples on here and in real life they all show some 'flaws' in their work or character, which only makes them more interesting. I personally don't care about the artist that only has perfect art in their gallery, they become boring.
You don't. I think the reason why people might view you as an example is because you didn't seem to be afraid on here to voice your opinion, show your work and use the critique you got on them to become better. They might see you as an example because you show progress and thát's what inspires others to try and do the same.
It's easier said than done, but try and create your work for yourself as you've done so far, instead of creating stories, art and voicing opinions for the sake of others.
I would like to end this rant with a quote that, if I remember correctly, you yourself used as a signature on a certain forum once, which holds up more now than ever it seems.
"Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self".
There will always be people who will love your artwork and some will dislike. And few might remain neutral. And among these, there will be some who will make discouraging/derogatory remarks. One shouldn't let such worthless remarks affect his|her work. On the other hand, a well-informed, well-rounded criticism can go a long way in improving oneself as an artist. Due to our biases, we might fail to see from certain perspectives. Constructive criticism provides that. World is full of cynicism and negativity. Still, there are so many 'Deviants' here, willing to support and promote the work of others.
I think, art is something that can provide a niche for each and everyone who has the will to keep improving. From what I gather (in my week as a deviant ) you (DamaiMikaz) embody that sentiment. May be that is the reason why most others look up to you as an inspiration.
Anyways, continue to love your art and continue to amaze your watchers. Good luck!!
The easiest way for me to overcome a block is simply writing, without thinking. Let the story write itself. Don't doubt, don't feel insecure, don't THINK. Just have fun.
Then, when you're done, put it away for a little while (30 mins.) and do something else. Again, no feeling insecure or thinking about your story. Let someone else read it, someone you trust will give you an honest and unbiased opinion. Ask how he/she feels about it. Only now should you read it again, think a just a little bit. Change your grammar mistakes, reform sentences to sound better and think about where your story is going. You can also write out a few different scenarios and then simply choose the one you like most.
Anyway art block isn't a failure, it happens to everyone. No one will say you've disappointed them if you make a mistake. Also (no offence) I didn't think of you as being "oh-so-perfect", the reason I watched you was simply because I thought you weren't afraid of voicing your opinion and I admired that. Because I never do, simply to avoid trouble.
I hope you (re)find your inspiration to write. Sorry for the long comment..
I seem to do the same thing man, all artists do to a degree, but that's what drives an artist, because what an artist explores doesn't exist yet
versus a scientist, or technician who is driven to understand the practical, what actually exists
those are two examples, but it seems the world doesn't change as much as I first thought no matter which side ur on.
You are brave to admit it to your fans while I only have a selected amount of people I share my epic fails to. If you need a break from the "popular" trend take a break because when you aren't enjoying it you won't do it. So take a break relax and collect yourself back together. Come back when you feel completely refreshed and invigorated. Chat with friends, make new friends, and do something different to help you relax. I am sure everyone will be here otherwise can you truly call them a fan? Anyways take all the time you need dear. I would prefer you to take a break compared to rush yourself. Take care of yourself Damai and I look forward to seeing you refreshed!
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it."
-Roald Dahl.
It'll come to you, don't push it. The more you worry, the worse it becomes. And as for feeling insecure, probably nothing I say will stop you feeling insecure, but I'd still like to say that I think your work is absolutely amazing!
Here's some great quotes to help you:
Also, if you're getting stuck, you're probably drawing for others. What's important when drawing or writing is to do what YOU like, not what everyone ELSE likes. THAT's what makes a good artist great, because if YOU like it, and have fun with it, it's really easy to see in the results.
Personally, sometimes I will go to start a project, but then I think what if... what if I get criticized due to the content of my work... what if someone finds what I make offensive... because often it can be hard to be real. It can be hard to hold a firm opinion on some topics and stay true to it, even when there are others who disagree.
Art though should not always be made to please. Art should be an artists artistic expression, even if sometimes bizarre or strange, art is much more powerful (to me) when it is real and raw and interesting to look at (and not the same overused fan-art and chbi styles which plague the internet.)
That is why I think you are sometimes sort of an inspiration. You seem to tend to stay true to yourself, and though I'm sure all artists go through the same artistic anxiety it's not a bad thing. If you see something that is wrong than you will work to fix it, and so you will continue to improve. Then one day you will look back at your old drawings (comparatively) and see how you have grown.
So, don't feel like you're the only one. I'm sure there are lots of artists in a similar position (one also being myself), just keep doing what you love and love what you do. It's ok to feel insecure, but don't let your insecurities bring you down. You should keep trying no matter how many obstacles are thrown in your path and I'm sure you'll get to where you want to be one day. If you get rejected at first, well hey it happens, but just don't forget to learn from your experience so you can improve in the future ^__^

Owl City's Adam Young on EDM, religion, and his Ford Mustang

Owl City's "Good Time" collaboration with the Minneapolis Youth Chorus -- behind-the-scenes
The basement bleeps and bloops of Owl City have been one of Minnesota's best-known imports since the single "Fireflies" became a chart smash back in the summer of 2009. Principal songwriter Adam Young only spends a fraction of his life in the small town of Owatonna where he grew up and still has a home, so it was a coup that City Pages got to meet up with him for a couple hours there earlier this month for a cover story.
Owl City just released The Midsummer Station, which features collaborations with Carly Rae Jepsen, Blink-182's Mark Hoppus, and the Minneapolis Youth Choir -- and it's got a pop sheen on it that surpasses all previous work. In these outtakes from a revealing conversation at the Owatonna Starbucks (and a phone call before a performance in London), Young spoke about his connections to the world of dance music, Twin Peaks, his sleeplessness, his beliefs, and coming home.
From London:
Gimme Noise: How much do you find a kinship with the EDM scene? Where do you think your music fits in?
Adam Young: It's definitely a big influence, and it always has been for me, honestly. I grew up listening to, particularly, European trance music like Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren and all this big seeping progressive trance stuff. You know, eight or nine-minute long mixes. It's stuff I've listened to since 9th grade. So I've always been a real big fan of that. I've been like the one kid in high school who listens to dance music and everyone else is into like Nickelback or whatever.
It's really exciting for me to sit back and watch the trends -- especially Top 40 music. Now obviously it's all beat heavy. It's pretty inspiring to me. As far as its influence over my own music, it's like 65 to 70 percent dance music. I'm so into it. The experience just going to a show: You watch a DJ mix, which is obviously very different than me performing with five other members on stage.
GN: After hearing The Midsummer Station, it's natural to wonder, what is your favorite season?
AY: Well, nine months of the year there's snow on the ground in Minnesota. So I think my favorite is right when the snow starts to melt, so this spring. Like spring in general, is pretty short in the Midwest, but I love spring. Yeah, you can just go outside and not get frostbite within five minutes. It's just green and it's growing and it's like the long wait after the dead of winter. Yeah. It's kind of inspiring for me and just in life itself.

GN: How does it feel to be divided between your younger fans and the much older people you work with?
AY: I never wrote music for anybody but myself. That sounds sort of selfish, but early on, music was my escape. Music was my way out of my job I hated and my very short community college career which ended badly. So music was my way out of that, that was my escape and ironically, the music would turn around and pull me out of where I was from. So I never wrote music for the 15 to 25-year-old-girls who seem to really connect with it. On the other side of it, I'm not sure what it is about 40-50 year old producer/co-writer guys who love this music and want to help me do what I do better. So I'm kind of in the middle of it all, but at the end of the day, I'm still kind of just doing what I've always done, which is just make songs that get stuck in my own head and just catchy melodies.
GN: What do you get most excited for when you get a break in your tour to head home for a while?
AY: Owatonna is very small compared to New York or wherever. I like the traffic. I like the fact that I don't have to wait for traffic. [laughs] Wherever it is, I can just do everything within a two mile radius; get food, get groceries, see my parents. I don't have to be anywhere. That's my favorite thing. I can close the door, I can stay inside my house and not leave if I don't want to. And usually I don't leave [laughs].
GN: I just got a mental picture of you driving a car. When you are at home, do you drive?
AY: Yeah when I'm at home, I love that. The thing about touring is that you can't drive anywhere by yourself because you're on a tour bus. So yeah, when I'm at home, I'm always driving around aimlessly a lot of times, but it's a good thing. It's a new Mustang. I have thing about Mustangs. I'm all for the drive.
GN: A convertable?
AY: No. I'm like a total bro. It's black and it's got white stripes and I've done stuff to it in the shop. I gave it more horsepower, it's like 400-whatever horsepower. [laughs]
From Owatonna:
GN: What happens to you when you are on stage and you start to feel uncomfortable?
AY: I don't know, I just kind of deal with it. My capacity to deal with uncomfortableness has grown, and I think that's a big thing. It's like that's so awkward, but I just act and just have to get through. The song is going to end eventually, you're going to be fine, it'll feel like forever. Like if something goes wrong on stage, somebody screws up or guitars aren't working, you just have to keep strumming even though no sound isn't coming out. You just have to keep looking like you're having fun.
GN: It's a very welcoming audience compared to what some performers expect. Like the people are on your side, but then do you feel like you have to live up to their raised expectations?
AY: Yeah. I mean they'll cheer no matter what. There's people out there that'll be like "that's alright". They're pretty forgiving. But it's still between me and myself. It's like "Aw I can't believe I've played this stupid part a million times and I screwed it up every time. Like what's wrong with me?" That's what ticks me off.
GN: How often do you read the Bible?
AY: Every night. Morning and night.
GN: How hard is it to deal with people who want to take that specific piece of you and decide where you stand and put you in their own religious box?
AY: At the end of the day, it's up to them and they file me [as] whatever. It won't change what I do. It won't change my decision making. But yeah, I feel like it's almost kind of selfish of people [to] base their respect for an artist or their love for a musician entirely based on the one area of his or her life and make that bigger than it should be. It'll still be part of who I am and I never want to lose that, but it's kind of up to them.
I feel like I wouldn't go to sleep at night if I just never made a comment on it. But I never want to come out and preach or anything. I don't have a big speech that I give on stage or anything. It's part of who I am. If people read about it and attach it to me, that's fine, because it's accurate.

GN: I like that you put out there the story about how you chose your name. [As opposed to some poppycock we published about a trip to Scotland.] How often are you that guy with the noose around your neck?
AY: Thankfully not yet. I'm expecting to wake up and it's all a dream and I'm dead. Beacuse it's so too good to be true. Yeah that story resonated with me. So nothing more than just the word "owl". Something about it is cool. I like the question marks that the name induces, but yeah.
GN: Did you ever watch Twin Peaks?
AY: No I never did.
GN: It's a David Lynch show you should watch. There's a bit about how "the owls are not what they seem," and it may cross your path someday.
How often do the Grammys register in your mind?
AY: To me, it's cool, but it's not what I want to live my life for. It would be an honor, for what it stands for, sure. But to me, it's just a trophy. It'd be fun to put on the shelf...
GN: The Stargate production team juggernaut is fascinating. How did working with them expand your sound?
AY: The song called "Shooting Star" was like the intro and the verses were my production. I didn't know where to go with it after that, it was very middle of the road. It was an idea I put together. Four years ago I did make the cut for Ocean Eyes. So I just had this track laying around. And I just said "What do you guys think about this?" And they're like "Yeah it's great, but it's middle of the road." So they turned it into a dance, very anthemic sounding... the chorus is like all their ideas. So just taking what I do and making it bigger. Not to say, I think what they added is something I could have physically done. I could have done what they did, but I probably wouldn't have thought of it. And to me, that's a huge value to that.
GN: So what is The Midsummer Station?
AY: It's just imagery. It really doesn't mean anything. It's the same as the band name. It's like "Where does your mind go?" Like "Where am I?" What I think about when I think about the name. It's like an escape.
GN: And it's a time period too?
AY: I mean, it could be. Although it's not like I'm at the middle of my career, so it's the midsummer. No metaphors. It's just a cool name.
GN: What is the sound that you created that really sticks out to you on this album?
AY: The dance production. I've always wanted to make a dance record and I never knew how to do it really. Except for putting a kick drum on every four beats of a bar. I really learned how to make a groove. Make it swing, or... something about it makes it more than just [quickly makes techno beat sounds with hands and mouth]. You know? Really sterile. I figured out how to make it breathe. Talk about drums, drum samples and stuff. I'm really proud of that. I feel like it stands up to the rest of the dance world. I never thought it would.
GN: Now that you have a successful career, is there something you ever feel like you want to go back to school for?
AY: Honestly, no. I couldn't really make myself do the work. I wanted to, I couldn't really make it work for me. It's very important but, man, even if I went back to school to do something I was really interested in, like writing novels or whatever... English... I wouldn't be able to turn stuff in on time. I just can't do it. Thankfully this thing came along. I'd be nowhere.
GN: Do you find that meeting deadlines imposed on you now are difficult?
AY: With this, honestly, no. It's actually really good. It's actually healthy because it keeps me working. Perfectionists screw around on something forever, I'd never get anything done. So it's good to have a "It's got to be turned in on this date."
GN: How many songs have you written?
AY: I don't know. That's a good question.
GN: Like a hundred?
Photo by Erik Hess
AY: Yeah. Depending on how much time I spend. What do you call a song you spend like 20 minutes on? Is that a song or not? Yeah. A few hundred maybe.
GN: How many of them are you truly happy with?
AY: Maybe 50. [chuckles] The ones that I put out. Once they're out there, that's a good thing. Maybe you look back and think "Oh, I really put that out?" But you were happy once.
GN: When is that "high" reached in the creative process?
AY: Probably before I record the final vocals. Just like writing the lyrics and singing it over the instrumental track. It's like "Awesome. It's going to be really good." Just feel it out. That's my favorite part. Once you sweat over recording the final vocals, it's a lot of work and it feels good, but it's still not as in your head.
GN: Do you feel older, younger, or even in place with your age group?
AY: I'm probably 15, 16 years old. I'm still a boy. The bummer, if you could call it a bummer -- the negative thing about having the amount of success I've been blessed to have, I don't have to pay my own bills, I don't have to worry about cell phones, or do anything that real life requires of everyone else. So that's why I kind of cheated the system.
GN: Where are you at with your sleeplessness?
AY: Because of my career is something I care so much about, I'll think really long and hard about whatever it is I'm doing. I do take Melatonin before bed. Otherwise without it, I stay up all night. Generally, it's that simple. At night I'm thinking about the next thing I have to record, or the show tomorrow, or even the flight the next morning. I stress out about flying. So it's just about [how] I want to make sure I do it right. I just worry about everything. It's kind of a bummer. But it's kind of a good blessing too, because you know what you have to do and what it's going to take to do it.

just got a call from a prospective doula and
DS - Cyrus 1/29/2010
DD - Saffron 10/6/2012
Comments (2)
Here's some lists.
My doula is training. Key points to hit
What training have you done
...mine did the dona seminar training. Some do different training. Ask what it entailed.
How many birth have you attended
...mine had zero when i interviewed her, dona trainees need three to
certify after classes so she may have one or two. Mine managed to get
two clients before my due date and now has been to two:)
Why do you want to become a doula
Do you have children...if so ask if she had medication. May help you get to know her. Mine has two kids, both medicated deliveries so that didn't influence my decision negatively. It helped me see she's experienced childbirth in spite of no deliveries. Some may be childless, but saw a sibling or neice/nephew born. Aren't deciding factors for me, but helpful.
Her philosophy on birth. My doula is pretty open. She won't put her agenda before ours, understands the importance of this for me, and will be strong yet not overbearing and aggressive in go time.
And all the other questions. Work out money to know for sure what's up. FYI doulas training with dona, at least and I'm not sure of other training courses, have to attend their births from appx 4cm on to qualify them towards their certs. So for me I want bethani there ASAP at the hospital with me so she gets credit. Through my interview sheet and my providers sheet, dona can tell if it was more towards early labor or later/transition labor. For me its easier to labor at the hospital than home, odd I know, but you may have her meet you early on at home and follow you in once things pick up. Just something to think about.
It is also good to ask what she will do for you and what she won't do. For example, my doula will support me and my husband through our birth experience, including things like giving backrubs, reminding me to drink water, relieving my husband if/when he needs to rest/eat/use the bathroom, reminding me of alternative laboring positions, coping techniques, etc. She will not give me medical advice, nor speak to my midwife or nurses on my behalf. She will, however, remind me of my birth plan at such times as my midwife or nurses inform me of any procedure that goes against my birth plan. She is my advocate, but she doesn't take over for me, just gives me the strength I need to stand up for myself in the heat of the moment. Hope this helps!

That was art.
Wow beautiful work and a nice inner meaning. It's refreshing to see a movie with class and deepness to it rather than the same old violence we see around he on Newgrounds. I really liked the poem at the end too.
This movie is a piece or art, well done.
ThANK YOU! I have also been very tired of the pointless violence and lame comedy that goes on at this site. It's so nice to know some people still appreciate the artistic value of movies.
I absolutely love it.
It has an excellent message to it, and graphics and music to suport it.
You've brought up an interesting theme, and demonstrated the emotions involved, and the possible consequences to it very well.
The movie was well composed, and drawn for it's purpose, and now that it's been mentioned, your scene-transitions are well executed.
Conclusion: You did a fine job, and I would like to see more from you.
On a sidenote, you've pretty much earned my vote for the monthly contest.
loved it!
this was very well done, and it is very emotionall. the value of the old and used.
i believe i can relate to the movie "I-robot" starring will smith, were the old robots are stored in containers. although in this movie it didn´t have any speach it simply wasn´t needed. i hope to that you make more movies as good as this one, maybe a sequell of what happens after this perhaps? would love to see it if you made it :-)
This is the second depressing flash I've seen in a row. I think I need cheering up. Lol, jk. This is a well done piece. It just goes to show that AI isn't always a good idea; they won't be too happy when the new models come out! lol
Once again, well done.
very good
i did not like the ending or the new robot though. i think this shows that you should not trade in old friends for new ones. If you think he did not trade the old one for a new one, then why did the man glare at the gray robot when he got him the toast? it showed he doesn't care about his old friend...right?

Baby Fae: A Life
Like a poem in the familiar epigram, a baby's life should not mean but be. Baby Fae was not given that simple existential luxury of infancy. The lives of other children acquire meaning slowly, in families, play, school and work. But almost from birth, her tenuous life was burdened with ehtical controversy, medical significance and social consequences. Nor did death provide its customary oblivion. Baby Fae has entered history as a public figure, a subject for study and debate.
The case of Baby Fae, as distinct from the tiny girl herself, arose in a cultural context that is understood no better than the genetic dysfunction that deformed her heart. American society seems to be in a state of extreme anxiety about its children. Abortion, birth defects, child abuse and infant sexuality make front-page news, enter political campaigns and serve at the material of made-for-TV movies. Parents and Presidents plead for organs to transplant in dying infants, and big-name entertainers instruct youngsters about how to avoid molesters.
The government--its lawmakers, police and educators--is alternately blamed for children's distress and implored to find a cure. Huge amounts of money are sought for crash medical programs to correct rare illnesses and defects. Extraordinary restrictions on personal freedom are mandated to prevent infrequent assaults. With hardly a dissenting voice, for instance, New York City has begun the compulsory fingerprinting of 100,000 child-care workers after a score of children were reported to have been sexually mistreated. Families, in the abstract, are scolded for their neglect of children's welfare; at the same time, the courts (as in the case of Baby Jane Doe) are asked to assume the parent's role in making health and welfare decisions.
Some social psychologists theorize that modern times have separated parents from their children to such a degree that the elders look on the youngsters as strangers, as "others" over whom they have diminishing control. …

The Printmaking Center of New Jersey (PCNJ) is an uncommon, award-winning arts center founded in 1973. For 40 years, PCNJ has operated the state's only open printmaking studios. Artists access our fully stocked studios at affordable rates to create art all day and into the night; 7 days a week. PCNJ also exhibits exceptional, thought-provoking art; offers sophisticated printmaking classes for adults; and provides traveling art programs to children to stimulate life-long creativity. Recently, PCNJ launched Combat Paper NJ, a ground-breaking program that uses art as a tool to help veterans resolve the psychological, emotional and physical effects of their combat experience.
The Printmaking Council of New Jersey was formed to support the fine art of printmaking statewide. Founders Lois Berghoff, Zelda Burdick, Florence Wender, Carol Yudin and Peter Chapin, then Chair of the Art Department at Drew University, envisioned an organization that would help local artists as well as promote the arts in New Jersey. On December 10, 1973 the incorporation papers were signed and the Printmaking Council of New Jersey was established.
Museums, colleges and art centers made available their facilities and galleries for PCNJ programs. However, The Printmaking Council was in need of a permanent home. The Roving Press, a community outreach program of PCNJ, attracted the attention of the Somerset County Parks Commission, which had recently acquired 35 acres of property donated by Ralph T. Reeve to be used as a statewide cultural complex bearing his name. PCNJ was offered 3 acres and a two-story framed building which once housed the offices of a lumber company. PCNJ moved into the newly renovated Ralph T. Reeve Cultural Center in 1978. PCNJ finally had a home, and over the years, the space has become a vital cultural resource for artists, collectors, college students and children.
In 2010, the organization changed its name to The Printmaking Center of New Jersey. While its popular acronym 'PCNJ' remained constant, the new name reflects the organization's identity as a place where artists and the public gather, and its goal to use printmaking as a community-building tool.
The Printmaking Center remains the only open printmaking studio in the state and provides a full range of vital and unique services and programs for artists and the general public. Members rent time in the professional studios for a fee. Each year a number of editions are published bringing together prominent artists with Master Printers. The Center also offers professional artists and novices alike an opportunity to enroll in an expansive selection of printmaking workshops. In-house galleries feature several dynamic exhibitions annually. All exhibitions are free and open to the public.
The Printmaking Center of New Jersey is an award-winning non-profit arts center. For the past 40 years The Printmaking Center has provided exhibitions, education and open working studios that support and encourage the fine art of printmaking. Our facility houses two galleries, and studios with equipment for intaglio, relief, monotype, screen printing, digital printing, papermaking, letterpress, and book arts. Each year thousands of adults and children participate in a variety of experiences at the center.
The mission of the Printmaking Center of New Jersey is to encourage, support and promote the fine art of printmaking in all its varied forms; to promote interaction among and between artists and the general public; and to advance the artistic and professional growth of artists at varying levels of experience.

She's never been a fan of filtering herself, and Chrissy Teigen obviously went too far with a Merry Christmas video that included her husband John Legend choking her.
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit star posted the clip as a joke but quickly took it down when her common sense kicked in. In the video she tried to say "Merry Christmas" as Legend put his hand around her throat.
She's always up for a good game so it was only appropriate for Nintendo to help Chrissy Teigen celebrate her birthday with a Super Mario 3D World party in West Hollywood on Tuesday (November 26).
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model dressed as Princess Peach as her handsome hubby John Legend presented her with a cake while wearing a Mario costume.
While most blushing brides are only lucky enough to have one wedding dress on their special day, Chrissy Teigen had a trio of gowns on deck as she said "I Do" with John Legend.
The Sports Illustrated swimsuit hottie gave followers a look at her third Vera Wang creation via Instagram, along with the caption, "the red."
In the search for a sexy costar in his new music video for "All of Me", John Legend didn't even have to leave home.
Shot in black and white, the video features Chrissy Teigen smooching her new husband, swimming in the pool in slow motion, showering, and snuggling in their bed.
She kept her wedding a secret from fans until after the fact, but now Chrissy Teigen is gleefully sharing photos of she and John Legend's romantic honeymoon.
In one snapshot posted to Instagram, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model is shown lovingly kissing the forehead of her new husband in a bikini with the caption, "Putting my beachbunnyswimwear bridal line to good use in Portofino!"
Wedding bells rang for John Legend and Chrissy Teigen on Saturday (September 14), as the couple tied the knot in Lake Como, Italy.
According to US Weekly, the new Mr. and Mrs. said their "I do's" in front of family and friends, including Kanye West and Brooklyn Decker.
Nudity has never really been a problem for Chrissy Teigen, and earlier today (September 12) she posted a link to a nude image of herself on her Twitter account.
The sexy supermodel paid a visit to the set of her fiancé John Legend's "All of Me" music video, and it wasn't long before she was topless in front of the camera.
She's one of the hottest designers of the day, and Vera Wang couldn't keep the stars away from her New York Fashion Week 2013 show.
Olivia Palermo and Giuliana Rancic showed up at The Theatre at Lincoln Center to check out the latest offerings from Ms. Wang's loom.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado, June 11. THE U.S. Olympic Committee announced that it would commit more than $10 million to create a "new independent agency that will investigate and resolve allegations of sexual abuse in Olympic sports," according to the Associated Press.
During a board meeting yesterday, the USOC secured $5.2 million during the next five years directly while requiring the governing bodies of all other Olympic sports to match that initial influx of cash with a combined expense. Additionally, the USOC is looking for additional funding of up to $15 million from "outside parties."
The agency is slated to begin in 2015, and will provide oversight for all Olympic sports.
USA Swimming has been at the center of this issue in terms of Olympic sports with Executive Director Chuck Wielgus having just apologized to sexual abuse victims within the sport of swimming after initially refusing to do so four years ago on ABC News' 20/20. Since creating its Safe Sport program, which is the beginning of the USOC movement to adopt Safe Sport concepts throughout Olympic sports, USA Swimming has banned more than 100 members for life.
"There's a widespread recognition over the Olympic movement that we need to shine more light on this problem," USOC CEO Scott Blackmun told the AP. "Chuck said that in his blog and the board said that in a very important and formal way today."
The USOC is definitely taking the issue seriously, and is looking to incorporate other organizations that will help in the fight to eradicate sexual abuse within sports throughout the U.S.
"We believe this is important for someone to step up and take a leading role," Blackmun told the AP. "There was a vacuum there. We needed to fill that vacuum. But the issue is important enough that we shouldn't be the sole funders of the initiative. We need to look for like-minded organizations."

Her 'Sins' Help Make 20-Year-Old Alessandra Ferri a Heavenly Prima at London's Royal Ballet
As principal choreographer of London's Royal Ballet Company, Sir Kenneth MacMillan knows dancing talent, and he calls Italian ballerina Alessandra Ferri, 20, "one of the most talented young dancers in the world." MacMillan selected the 5'3", 96-lb. Ferri to star in his Granada TV production of Weill/Brecht's Seven Deadly Sins (which may be released in America early in 1984). Besides personifying Lust, Alessandra will be seen leaping the sinful gamut from Gluttony to Envy.
The elfin Ferri vaulted to prominence in 1982 when she danced the lead in MacMillan's Mayerling, winning raves in London and later at the Met in New York. All that, however, meant less to Ferri than the reaction of her parents. The daughter of a housewife and the manager of a car-parts factory in Milan, she says, "My parents didn't want me to pursue ballet" because it was too chancy. After witnessing her London triumph, though, "They were just so excited for me they could not talk."
Ferri's gifts were apparent from almost her first plié. At age 5, she insisted upon attending ballet class in her Catholic school, and the nuns quickly arranged an audition at La Scala. Studying there from age 10 to 15, she won admission in 1979 to the Royal Ballet School. Now a soloist with the Royal Ballet, Alessandra lives alone in a small, recently purchased London flat. The solitude suits her. "There is no time for boyfriends," she declares crisply, content for now to have all her pas de deux onstage.

Of all the eye-popping numbers to come out of UCF's recent dominant wins over Howard and Jacksonville, Knights coach Donnie Jones circled one: 41 assists.
Through the first few weeks of the season, UCF had struggled to adjust to the zone defenses it was seeing. It is a look the Knights had to anticipate. With new hand-checking rules in effect this season, coaches predicted teams would lean more on zone defense.
