In this article we present a method for the animation and visualization of turbulent fluid flow. The method is simple, fast and stable. It is based on well know methods from the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics, treating the fluid as a vorticity field. Vorticity is transported by a particle system. A uniform grid is also used to calculate a velocity field that moves particles to their new positions. Such a mixed method where free particles move over a fixed grid has very small computational costs, making it suitable for Computer Animation.
The method simulates the behavior of fluids in situations where the contact between fluid masses with different velocities gives rise to turbulence phenomena. It is suitable for the animation of gaseous fluids like smoke. Unlike previous algorithms, it is possible to generate turbulence over all scales, ranging from the macroscopic to the microscopic level. The algorithm is controlled by a small number of intuitive parameters, enabling animators to quickly take maximum advantage of it. The algorithm can also be parallelized easily owing to its particle nature.
The modelling and animation of fluids is one of the greatest challenges anyone working in Computer Graphics can face. Fluids are a constant presence in our lives, from the water that covers two thirds of our planet to the air that surrounds us. There is an understandable desire to portray such objects side by side with other more tractable geometric objects.
A polygonal mesh or a parametric surface are not adequate representations for a fluid because of its amorphous nature and irregular topology. A gaseous fluid tends to spread over all surrounding space, filling regions with variable density but with no definite border. Also common computer animation techniques provide realistic fluid motion only in the simplest of cases. Animations must resort to Fluid Dynamics laws to some extent if realistic results are desired. Computationally intensive algorithms are the penalty incurred by such approaches. Because of these difficulties in both the modelling and animation domains, fluids are one of the hardest real world objects to simulate on a computer.
In this article a method is presented for the animation and visualization of fluids exhibiting turbulent phenomena. Turbulence is a chaotic behavior of the fluid, characterized by fast variations of the fluid's velocity, both in space and time. Turbulence usually occurs when conditions of low viscosity and high speed gradients are present. A turbulent fluid can be visually identified by the presence of vortices. Such vortices continually form and evolve over time, giving rise to highly complex and appealing motions. Common examples can be a column of smoke rising through the air or the foam pattern left behind on the surface of water by a ship's propeller. From the point of view of both Computer and Traditional Animation, turbulence phenomena is frequently used to convey the notion of a fluid.
Several models for fluid turbulence have already been presented in the literature. In early works, turbulence was functionally defined as the superposition of band limited noises over consecutively smaller scales [Perlin85]. This ad-hoc definition of turbulence was used by [Ebert90] and [Saupe88] for the synthesis and animation of clouds. The results, although quite good for static images, were forcibly unrealistic when it came to simulating the dynamics of the clouds.
[Haumman88] was able to build arbitrary complex flow patterns by the addition of basic flow primitives. This primitives were simple solutions to the fluid mechanics equations for incompressible fluids and included uniform flows, sinks and sources of fluid and vortex effects. A static flow field could be built and particles would be advected through it.
[Sakas93] considered the turbulence of a fluid to be a stochastic noise superposed on a constant flow. The noise was synthesized from a power spectrum given by the Kolmogorov-Obukov distribution, which can be deduced from the equations of fluid flow [Landau63]. The turbulence patterns obtained by such spectral synthesis methods are everywhere uniform and isotropic. [Landau63] describes turbulence as a superposition of an infinite number of vortices, or eddies, with sizes varying over all scales. From the large scale eddies, energy is transmitted down to smaller ones without loss. The energy of the fluid is finally dissipated to the environment when it reaches the smallest eddies in the range of scales. Spectral synthesis with the Kolmogorov power spectrum takes this cascading of energies into account but fails to model the dynamics of the large scale eddies. Such eddies are responsible for the global, macroscopic, motion of the fluid and cannot be ignored if realistic results are expected.
[Stam93] also uses spectral synthesis to define a turbulent velocity field at the microscopic scale. To this, a deterministic flow field is added to describe the large scale motion of the fluid. A particle system is advected over the resulting field. The particles are treated as opaque blobs and rendered with a ray-tracing paradigm to give the fluid a gaseous look. The animations obtained with this method are fairly convincing but it is still not possible to model turbulence at large scales since the macroscopic flow field is deterministic. Also, energy and momentum transfers between this and the small scale velocity field are not considered. It is, therefore, not possible to model the onset of turbulence arising from the macroscopic motion of the fluid.
The model used in this work describes the fluid as a vorticity field. The vorticity is a measure of the amount of turbulence of the fluid at each point in space. If the vorticity field is known at some instant it is possible to obtain its evolution for all subsequent instants according to a given differential equation of motion. [Yaeger86] used this model to animate the atmosphere of the planet Jupiter. The vorticity field, corresponding to an initial cloud pattern, was sampled on a grid and the equation of motion was solved over that grid using pseudo-spectral techniques. Methods such as this, that sample and solve field equations over grids, are know as Eulerian methods. The grid must have a sufficiently fine resolution if the cloud pattern is to have a good level of detail. For a grid with a resolution of NN the method must solve a system of N2 differential equations, one for each node where a vorticity value is stored. Clearly, Eulerian methods are not particularly efficient when highly detailed animations are desired.
In opposition to Eulerian methods there is the possibility of describing the vorticity field as a particle system [Reeves83], this being the origin of Lagrangian methods [Leonard80]. A vortex particle (also know as a vorton in the Computational Physics literature) carries around a given amount of vorticity and can be thought of as an infinitely small whirlpool. When all these small whirlpools are added together the final turbulent pattern arises. In the method here described a grid is still used to keep an equivalent sampled version of the vorticity field (thus the method deviates from a "pure" Lagrangian formulation). A velocity field is calculated over the grid as the solution to a Poisson equation with suitable boundary conditions. The particles are then advected according to this velocity field.
To visualize the evolving fluid, particle positions are directly output to a scan-line renderer using a standard implementation of spot noise as described in [van Wijk91].
At present, the method is only applicable for two dimensional flow fields. It has, however, very low computational costs and can handle systems with large numbers of particles, which makes it an attractive method for the generation of complex animated textures. It also provides starting points for future extensions into the three dimensional domain.
The behavior of all kinds of fluids is governed by two equations: a continuity and a dynamics equation. For incompressible, inviscid, fluids and ignoring external forces like gravity these two equations take the form:
v(x,t) is a velocity field describing the fluid's flow for every instant, p(x,t) is the pressure distribution and is the density. Equation (1) represents a law of mass conservation. The amount of fluid entering any given volume must equal the amount of fluid going out. Equation (2) is the Fluid Mechanics equivalent to Newton's second law F=ma. The existence of a gradient of pressures inside the fluid gives rise to a flow v which seeks to eliminate it.
We will consider the flow to be purely rotational, i.e. there will always be a scalar field which allows the flow to be written as:
This transformation simplifies the dynamics since it can now be expressed with the field , known as the stream function, instead of a vector field. It can be seen by plugging (3) in (1) that a rotational flow automatically verifies the continuity equation.
At this point it is convenient to rewrite (2) as a function of vorticity in order to take turbulence effects into account. The vorticity (x,t) represents the amount of fluid circulation in every point in space and through time, being given by:
Taking that turbulence is really a superposition of vortices, one can see that the vorticity (4) is a good measure of the fluid's turbulence. Highly turbulent regions of the fluid will correspondingly have high vorticity values. Also note that in the case of a bidimensional fluid the vorticity is a vector always normal to the plane of the fluid. It therefore suffices to consider only its magnitude since the direction is fixed. By taking the curl on both sides of (2) one gets:
Notice that the curl applied on the left side of (2) managed to take the pressure gradient out of the picture. The dynamics are now further simplified since it only takes a stream function and a vorticity field to fully describe it. [Yaeger86] used this equation in his model to simulate the Jovian atmosphere. To try and find a more efficient method the variable is instead considered to be the vorticity carried by an infinitesimal fluid particle along its trajectory and through time. Equation (5) becomes:
The vorticity is therefore a conserved quantity of every particle. The equation of motion for a given particle i is now:
Simply stated, this equations means that each particle takes the velocity of the flow at its current position. Comparing (6) and (7) with (5) it can be seen that the dynamics of the flow are much simpler when written in Lagrangian coordinates than the equivalent version in Eulerian coordinates. One might already conclude that a particle system is a more adequate representation for a turbulent flow than a grid.
One equation is still necessary to have a complete vorticity model. This equation must relate the flow (in terms of its stream function ) to the vorticity field and is obtained by plugging (3) in (4) to arrive at the following Poisson equation:
It is important to note that such equation can only be obtained in the two dimensional case due to the orthogonality between and v(x,t). From the vorticity field at any given time it is now possible to get as a solution to (8) and then obtain the flow from (3).
A hybrid model is used where a particle system coexists with a fixed uniform grid [Hockney88], [Christiansen73]. The particles are responsible for the vorticity transport while the grid is used to solve the field equation (8). Each iteration of the algorithm can be briefly summarized in the following steps:
The algorithm is schematically represented in Fig. 1. This figure
shows the particle/grid duality and the circular flux of data
generated between the two domains. A particle system is advected
inside the Lagrangian domain while in the Eulerian domain bidimensional
fields are calculated, obeying differential field equations. The
transposition of any quantity from one domain to the other is
accomplished with a suitable interpolation scheme.
Figure 1. Hybrid algorithm.
The first step transfers the vorticity field from a Lagrangian
to an Eulerian representation. Figure 2 shows the vorticity interpolation
scheme. The particle vorticities are accumulated on the grid in
such a way that each particle contributes to the four grid points
that surround it. The particle vorticity Vp is distributed
through the grid points V1 to V4. A weighting factor
is attributed to each point according to the fractional area subtended
by the particle's position and the opposite grid point. For instance,
for V1 we have V1=A4Vp, for V2
V2=A3Vp, etc. In this way grid points nearer
the particle receive a higher percentage of its vorticity than
more distant points. This scheme also conserves the total vorticity
of the system.
Figure 2. Vorticity interpolation.
With the vorticity grid at hand the Poisson equation (8) is now solved relative to the stream function (x,y) on a rectangular domain a x b, c y d. Suitable boundary conditions must be imposed on the four edges delimiting the domain. Considering, for instance, the edges x = a and x = b one can have the following situations:
The laplacian operator in (8) is approximated with finite differences in order to solve the equation. The FISHPACK library was used, containing a set of Fortran routines to solve both Laplace and Poisson type equations over a variety of coordinate frames [Swarztrauber75]. Cartesian, polar and spherical surface frames are among the most used types of 2D frames.
At this point we have a discrete representation of the stream function over the grid. From this the fluid's velocity field v(x,t) can be obtained. For a given grid point (i,j) the curl (3) is approximated by the following differences:
where h is the grid spacing. For polar or spherical coordinate frames similar approximations to the curl operator are used. A particle's velocity is now calculated with an interpolation scheme similar to the one previously used to interpolate vorticities. Considering again Figure 2, where the grid points now store the velocities v1 to v4, the velocity vp of the particle is calculated through a bilinear interpolation:
During the advection stage, each particle is displaced according to:
where t represents the time increment. Equation (12) can be easily identified with the Euler method for the solution of ordinary differential equations. More robust methods, like the Runge-Kutta, could have been used, with increased computational costs.
The animation of the fluid is produced using a spot noise
approach to the rendering of the particles [van Wijk91]. The particle
system can be seen as a distribution of Dirac impulses in the
image plane. A Dirac impulse has an infinite frequency spectrum.
Trying to render it as is would inevitably lead to aliasing artifacts
in both the spatial and temporal domains.
Figure 3. Elliptic kernel.
To turn the particles into band limited signals a convolution is made with a gaussian kernel in the image plane. Considering a local coordinate space (x,y) for each particle where x is aligned with the particle's velocity vector (fig. 3), the kernel is given by:
where ws represents the spatial width of the kernel and wt is the temporal width. The rendering of the particle system is really a filtering operation with a low-pass, space and time variant, anisotropic filter (since it is not invariant with respect to plane rotations).
The convolution spreads the particle's influence over an elliptic area of dimensions x and y on the major axes. This spreading gives the image a "gaseous" look, being well suited for the rendering of gaseous fluids. A compromise must be met when choosing the filter's spatial width. Too small a value will not eliminate all high frequencies while a high value will lead to excessive blurring, causing an out of focus sensation on the viewer. As a good rule of thumb ws is set equal to the pixels width.
Temporal aliasing artifacts can be neglected when particles have small displacements from frame to frame. The parameter wt can be set to zero and the kernel becomes circular since the relation x = y now holds. The convolution with a circular filter can be performed more efficiently because there is no need to transform into particle coordinates as was previously done. The filter is rasterized one particle at a time in scan-line order, using incremental techniques and fixed point arithmetic. For a more detailed explanation refer to [van Wijk93].
The implementation of the algorithm has several speedup techniques. Grids have dimensions which are powers of two. In this way it is possible to index grid points with fast bitwise operators. Also the fact that particles are confined to move inside the grid allows us to use fixed point arithmetic to implement their advection. With 16 bit precision good quality animations could be produced with no significant errors.
Figs. 5a to 5c(12k) show frames from an animation of a turbulent jet. The complete animation is shown as an mpeg movie(35k). A lengthier animation can be seen here (127k). This kind of animation can be used to visualize the emission of smoke from a point source. Vortex particles are being created at a constant rate near the bottom of the images. They are uniformly distributed in the horizontal direction along the initial width of the jet. Particles are subject to a uniform flow field which drags them upwards at a constant speed. The turbulent flow field is calculated by the vorticity method over a 32x128 grid and is then superposed to obtain the final turbulence pattern.
Figure 4. Initial vorticity profile.
After some trial and error an initial vorticity distribution was chosen according to the profile in Figure 4, where 2W is the width of the jet at the base, along the horizontal direction. At first a uniform distribution in the range [-1,1] was tested but it turned out that particle vorticities cancelled each other in a random fashion and no significant turbulence phenomena ever developed. With the profile depicted in Figure 4 there are two opposing vorticity strips at each side of the jet. These strips are responsible for the large scale vortices that tend to form along the jet. The discontinuous transition in the profile is smoothed out after vorticity interpolation to the grid and forms an intermediate flow which gives origin to the arches connecting vortices on opposite sides of the jet. The vorticity of every particle is decreased at a constant rate in an attempt to simulate friction effects between the smoke and the surrounding medium.
Fig. 5d (4k) shows how motion blur can be achieved when the convolution filter (13) has a parameter wt 0. This can be used when the ejection speed of the jet is large compared to the speed of the shutter.
Figs. 6a to 6c (14k) depict the animation of a possible planetary atmosphere, much like the one modelled by Yaeger for the planet Jupiter. The atmosphere consists of several latitudinal cloud rings surrounding the planet. Vortex particles are constantly being introduced into the system of rings with a given initial vorticity. Each particle receives the color of the ring where it is initially placed. The concentration of particles per ring changes as a function of latitude. Equatorial rings show more complex dynamics and thus deserve a higher concentration of particles than polar ones where the flow pattern is rather dull. This change of concentration with latitude also accounts for the non-linearity of the latitude/longitude coordinate system.
The vorticity of each particle gradually decreases from frame to frame and the particle is removed from the system when its vorticity reaches zero. In this way the rings work very much like particle diffusers into the rest of the atmosphere. After some iterations the number of particles remains constant (the number of created particles equals the number of destroyed particles per iteration) and stable turbulence patterns generate between neighboring rings.
The model used here has several gross deficiencies from a scientific point of view, that became evident after the first simulations. The rings in the northern hemisphere circulate in a direction opposite to the rings in the southern hemisphere. Also, rings nearer the poles have higher speeds than equatorial rings. Several improvements include the modelling of the shear flow induced by the rotational motion of the planet and a more correct distribution of particle vorticities as a function of latitude.
The field equations were written in spherical coordinates and solved over a 64x64 grid. There is a periodic boundary condition on the longitudinal borders so the cloud pattern can wrap seamlessly around the spherical surface. Dirichlet conditions on the north and south pole borders force particles to circulate around without going over them.
The images are rendered in a two step process. A bidimensional color texture is first generated using the convolution technique for each of the RGB planes. Particles are convoluted with an elliptic kernel where the major axis (see Figure 3) is aligned with the latitudinal direction. The length of the axis is set to compensate changes in the concentration of particles. Rings near the poles have fewer particles and so need a good amount of latitudinal blurring to hide gaps in the resulting texture. In a second step, a standard scan-line algorithm renders the final images where the texture is mapped on a spherical object with a uniform surface color.
The vorticity method can not only be applied to problems with an intrinsically physical nature but also to a more broader class of Computer Graphics problems. Figs. 7a through 7d (50kb) show an example of image deformation based on an underlying vorticity field. The vorticity field is defined initially according to the image luminance. Bright areas of the image originate highly turbulent motion while darker areas tend to be passively deformed by the surrounding field. It can be seen that the bright area of the sky gives rise to a distinctly shaped large scale vortex. This direct mapping from luminance to vorticity is, of course, arbitrary. One could instead consider dark areas to be vorticity generators.
A vortex particle is created for every pixel in the image. Its color and vorticity are assigned according to the same attributes of the pixel. From here the vorticity algorithm starts working in the usual way. A swirling effect was achieved by including a flow field with the following expression in polar coordinates (r,theta):
The constants and define the twist and the rotational speed of a large vortical flow centered at the origin of the coordinate frame. The influence of (14) on the overall turbulent flow can be easily identified in the images.
To reduce both memory and computational costs the particles in the system were divided into two distinct groups of active and passive particles. A passive particle is advected much like everybody else but has no vorticity and consequently does not contribute to the system dynamics. It has a reduced attribute set, consisting only of its position vector and color. The vorticity field is defined only by the active particles which have the complete set of attributes (like vorticity and speed). The memory costs using this particle hierarchy are smaller for obvious reasons and also the time taken to interpolate vorticities to the grid is significantly reduced.
In the following table the times per frame are shown for each of the animations previously described. Ten algorithm iterations were performed for each frame in all cases. In the animations where the number of particles changes, values were shown for the frame with the larger amount of particles. The results were measured on a Silicon Graphics Indigo workstation with a R4000 processor running at 33 MHz.

The rendering time for the atmosphere sequence only measures the rendering of the bidimensional texture and not the final rendering of the texture mapped sphere. The discrepancy of this value relative to the rendering of the other sequences comes from the convolution with an elliptic kernel instead of a circular one. As already mentioned, a circular filter can be more efficiently scan converted.
It is easy to conclude the method has O(n) complexity, where n is the number of vortex particles. Particles do not interact with each other but only with the grid. The operations involved are advection, vorticity interpolation to and velocity interpolation from the grid and can be done in constant time regardless of particle distribution.
The time complexity for the Poisson solver is O(mn log(n)), according to the FISHPACK documentation, for a mn grid. It was verified, with the grid resolutions used in the animation sequences, that the computational cost of the Poisson solving operation was not significant relative to the cumulative cost of the other operations.
The algorithm can be easily parallelized. Particles are distributed to all the processors so that each one becomes responsible for the advection and interpolation of a small percentage of the total particle system. The grid is stored in a shared memory area and the field equation is solved with a conveniently parallelized version of the Poisson solver routine.
A method was presented for the simulation of turbulent behavior in fluids. The method is based on computational techniques, well established in the CFD domain for some decades. It is hoped this techniques may have taken some aspects of fluid dynamics out of the realm of large vectorizable supercomputers and have made them usable for medium sized workstations where they may find large application in Computer Graphics.
All the control variables of the model can be conveniently abstracted so that any animator, with no prior knowledge of Fluid Mechanics, can rapidly take advantage of it. For the animation of smoke, for instance, one only has to specify the concentration of particles, the thickness and initial velocity of the smoke and the desired degree of turbulence. A small set of tools can be implemented, each one aiming at a particular type of animation (smoke, clouds, turbulent textures) and with a reduced parameter set. Such computational tools could then be interfaced with commercial animation packages.
The algorithm is stable. [Hockney88] shows that the particle/grid method softens the short range interaction between particles. The vorticity of a particle is uniformly distributed inside the volume of a sphere centered at the particle's position. The radius of the sphere is a function of the grid spacing and the quantification errors made by the finite difference approximations. This fuzziness of the particle's vorticity makes the interaction force between particle pairs go smoothly to zero for short ranges. The possibility of hard collisions is avoided and the total energy of the system can be efficiently conserved.
The algorithm is also fast since its complexity changes linearly with the number of particles. Animation sequences using large numbers of particles were produced. These animations would have been quite impracticable or even impossible to produce with previous particle dynamics algorithms.
The main disadvantage of the method lies in its bidimensional nature. It can be used to produce animated textures which later can be mapped onto three dimensional objects. In a possible extension of the method to the three dimensional case, the vorticity field equation (8) would not take the simple form of a Poisson equation for which a variety of efficient and well tested routines exist. A special purpose numerical routine would have to be written and it is not known how this would compromise the stability and performance of the algorithm.

SAN FRANCISCO — David Frias works two minimum-wage jobs to squeak by in one of the most expensive cities in America.
Come New Year's Day, he'll have a few more coins in his pocket as San Francisco makes history by becoming the first city in the nation to scale a $10 minimum wage. The city's hourly wage for its lowest-paid workers will hit $10.24, more than $2 above the California minimum wage and nearly $3 more than the working wage set by the federal government.

Lambert doesn't like what Matt Stoller saying about how Obama ran his campaign and how he's now consolidating power. He thinks Matt's kissing Obama's boots.
What Matt is saying is simple:
Obama is taking over the party and cutting out everyone who isn't in his camp. He believes in post-partisanship (this doesn't contradict having Daschle as your bud, y'know). Money flow is going to come mostly from Obama going forward, unless he loses the election. The independents-folks like MoveOn, ActBlue, the netroots, etc… are being cut out or marginalized, whether they realize it or not (and I know that some don't.) Obama doesn't feel he really needed them (sorry MoveOn), and he isn't planning on giving them any real say or power.
(As an aside, this is especially true of the Netroots. Give Kos and co. credit. When they went fullbore Obama it sure wasn't because Obama gave a damn about what they thought. Quite the contrary.)
So Matt, seeing that Obama is going to be in charge, and is going to be controlling money and access is hoping that Obama is going to turn out to be a good president who really can make things like "post partisanship" work. And he's saying that progressives should do everything they can to try and help (read: convince) Obama to actually rule America as a progressive.
I personally doubt Obama cares one whit about what anybody in the blogosphere thinks about anything, or what most progressives and liberals think.
But my bottom line is simpler. Obama isn't John McCain, and that's all I really expected out of either Obama or Clinton. Anyone who expects much more, I predict, is going to be disillusioned. Within a year of Obama getting in power, progressives and liberals will feel about him the way they do today about Pelosi and Reid.
But at least he might stop torturing people; probably won't invade Iran, and won't appoint an Alito clone to the Supreme Court. You take what you can get.

Very bleak right now in Coloado. 3% of Vail open w/ very little snow projected for next week or so. Uggh.
I can see BC from my window, and it's not looking good. Had family in town for Thxgiving, and they reported lame service at the Hyatt. Still not at full staffing levels, and this is true for a lot of the hotels. Rental market very weak. Ours and a friends rentals, usually rented by workers by now, are empty.Not short or long right now, just telling you what we're seeing up here.
You sound like you have no idea what you're talking about. BC looks great for early season (drive up wildridge rd. and tell me it looks bad) and the rental market is doing great compared to the rest of the state and the state is doing much better than the rest of the country. Rent is at 2007 levels in the Vail Valley (just look at craigslist) whereas the Breck area is more at the 2000 level.Hotels are never full staff until closer to X-mass and this is a deep recession. Parking lot's are still full on the weekends so Denver traffic is still heavy. It'll be fine. We've got the name the location and the snow... eventually.Worry about the market's performance not Vail's. That's the only price mover for the foreseeable future.

Smelling like yesterday, grooming and and you're mother doesn't work here! My Pet Peeve!
Then there are the women that like to chat on the phone… in the stall… while they are doing their business! Do they really not care that the person on the other side of the line can hear them urinating…or worse? And do they really not care that the other person can hear complete strangers urinating …or worse?? Not to mention how inconsiderate they are to only allow me to hear one side of the conversation!
But I think my biggest pet peeve are the women that use their employer's time to groom at work.
Now we all check our hair and our teeth and at times apply another coat of lipstick. I'm talking about the women that on a daily basis bring a miniature suitcase to work and then go into the bathroom and pluck their eyebrows, curl their hair, apply deodorant, apply makeup, brush their teeth and believe it or not…clip and polish their toenails. This is in the public women's bathroom! During working hours! Do these women just roll out of bed, smelling like yesterday, putting on whatever clothes they find on the floor and take off to work and clock in then proceed to the ladies restroom to groom themselves and prepare themselves for the day?
I would love an extra hour of sleep, but I can't see coming to work sans makeup and without showering and brushing my hair and then using the time my employer is paying me for to prepare myself to be presentable to get to work! Don't they realize that on top of being lazy they are stealing? Stealing the time their employer is paying them to work?
I realize that a lot of people think that is archaic...to worry about using work hours to groom or do personal stuff, but I was brought up old school and I've always tried to live by my favorite motto, "Integrity is what you do when no one is watching". Well ladies...there are quite a few of you that work in this building that definitely lack integrity!
So that's it for my rant, what's your pet peeve?

ja ja ja ja ja!!! I'm gonna print this and post on the bathroom wall of the building. Both bathrooms. I love it. Now do one for the meetings held in the hallway. Those are so annoying when you are trying to walk down the hallway and these group of people decide to have their meeting in the hallway. Excuse me, you have your office. That's my pet peeve.
- Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 12:41:00 PM PDT
- Alicia said...
Yep, that's another pet peeve! And they are so rude to just stand there. So the women are grooming in the bathroom and the men are cluttering up the hallway with their meetings and you and I are just burras...lol. Working our little fingers to the bone!

I never spent much time in the crappers and couldn't tell you what goes on. In the ladies room, I spent zero time so I can't say that I share your peeve, but agree with the sentiment of it. I must confess a certain amusement of digital radio pulses of urination being sent to cell towers and satellites. I can see 3 headed aliens hunched over the receivers and computer display at some secret facility on the planet Zork, listening to high pitched tinkelings and puzzling over what it could be.
I do have to agree with Angie, I found hallway meetings especially at doorways to be extremely irritating. Ha Ha! A thing of the past now. Retirement is great.
- Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 1:08:00 PM PDT
My BIGGEST pet peeve is those patents that decide to go on vacation from parenting while at a restaurant! They let their kids roam wild and free so that they are not bothered with them while they eat. expecting the staff to care for them or keep from running into them while they carry heavy trays of food! Please parents (and you know who you are!) If you don't want to be bothered with your kids then don't take them and find a babysitter! If you can't afford a babysitter then you can't afford to go out period! Now for those of you who are going to say (and I know you will) She must not have kids! As a matter of fact I have two! I took care of business at home to make sure there were no behavior problems in public.

I have done janitorial work and its so sad to say women are way nastier than men...my pet peeve is slurping and stupid people...lim

I am with you! I, fortunately have not experienced and of this, but would be soooo grossed out if I did. I like Angie's idea.

- Alicia said...
Don't be rubbing that retirement stuff in our faces! We aren't all as blessed as you are :)
Well I can see the aliens on the planet Zork being confused by the high pitched tinkelings, but imagine what they must think of ladies passing gas? I feel sorry for those poor aliens!
You would be amazed at the stuff that goes on now in offices Sextant. It's not like back in the day. The cell phone has changed everything! I've blogged about it before, but I am amazed that anything gets done at all during the day!
- Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 2:33:00 PM PDT
- Alicia said...
Hi lim!
Coffee slurping is a bad one. Gum chewing is even worse! Stupid people? I'm with you on that one too. Not the ignorant ones that just don't know better, but the stupid ones that don't even try! And people wearing pajamas out in public...I could go on and on! Thanks for commenting!
- Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 2:35:00 PM PDT
- Alicia said...
Oh I hear ya! I have to say, you have two of the best behaved children I've ever met. I have eaten with you and them several times and I never had to smack any of them, so you know they are well behaved :)
Yeah, parents that just let their kids do whatever are a pet peeve of mine too. When I worked at the funeral home and we had visitation in the evening you would be amazed how the kids would be running around breaking things and climbing on stuff. The mothers mourning and weeping in the chapel and the dad's drinking beer and laughing in the parking lot.
You should have to get a permit to be allowed to have children! But then you would be bringing the government in to yet another aspect of our lives and I know people would just hate that. Thanks for commenting Raelynn!!! :)

I've always worked for smaller companies where there is just one bathroom for men and one for women, not one with multiple stalls. You would not believe how messy women are. They get stuff everywhere and don't seem to care. The mother in me comes out at times and I pick up wet paper towels, used dental floss and gum wrappers all the time. We need a bathroom attendant!

- Wanda Beavers said...
LOL! This goes on all the time in the Philippines. You go into a restroom in any mall and the sinks are staked out by various mall employees brushing teeth, doing hair, applying makeup, washing face, etc etc. Its so annoying.
- Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 4:21:00 PM PDT
- Wanda Beavers said...
Lol! It happens all the time here in the Philippines. I've gotten used to sharing the sink with a makeup applying employee or several. It's just a fact of life here. What really gets my goat is when women pee all over the seat and then don't wipe it off. Ick. Course, we are fortunate to get a toilet seat here, and only the very best malls include toilet tissue in bathrooms. I carry my own tissue.

I think we're all nodding our heads to this one! No, you don't sound archaic - just very, very sensible.

Wow! I guess there is no reason for me to be complaining then...lol. Amazing how really lucky we are in the U.S. I love all your stories and pictures. Thanks so much for reading and commenting my childhood friend :)
- Thursday, May 1, 2014 at 7:40:00 AM PDT
- Alicia said...
Well thank you. Sometimes I wonder if I'm only getting upset because I'm getting older! Ha! But have you noticed that there is no customer service anymore? Or maybe that's just in California. Almost any store you go into the employees are talking to teach other or texting or complaining and you never get a thank you, how are you, come back soon! It's disheartening! Thanks for stopping by!

Well, you know what they say: 'Everyday we go to - work (noun), not to work (verb)'.

I remember the days when I would go to work just to get a break from the weekend with kids! Ha! DUTA, I have missed you! So glad to hear from you and I hope all is well in your neck of the world!

December 29th, 2003
San Antonio, Texas - Nebraska interim head coach Bo Pelini got his first win as a head coach when the #22 Cornhuskers beat the Michigan State Spartans 17-3 in the Alamo Bowl.
Pelini, who was the Husker defensive coordinator during the regular season, assumed the head coaching duties when Frank Solich was fired a month earlier.
NU rallied behind its new head coach, as Pelini got his team to play inspired football.
Behind a defense that harassed Michigan State's offense all night long and an offense that controlled the ball behind their patented rushing attack, Nebraska won their second Alamo Bowl and finished the season at 10-3.
The Blackshirt defense limited the Spartans to just 174 yards of total offense, forced three interceptions and tallied five sacks.
On offense, sophomore I-back Cory Ross, who carried the ball a school-record 37 times, rushed for 138 yards and two touchdowns to pace NU's ground game which finished with 229 yards.
The first quarter ended with the score tied at 3-3, as both defenses were playing well.
But that soon changed as Nebraska turned the tide with its first quarter interception, when safety Daniel Bullocks picked-off Spartan quarterback Jeff Smoker at the NU 36-yard line.
Husker quarterback Jammal Lord immediately went deep as he hooked up with wide receiver Isaiah Fluellen on a 58-yard pass play. Fluellen caught a career-high four passes for 84 yards in the game.
Two plays later, Ross ran it in from two yards out to give NU a 10-3 lead.
What proved to be the final score of the game, Lord guided the Husker offense 80 yards on just three plays, ending with Ross's 6-yard touchdown run to give Nebraska a 17-3 lead before halftime.
On the first play of that drive, Lord exploded for a career-long 66-yard run down to the Spartan 14-yard line. As the game offensive MVP, Lord would run for 79 yards on 10 carries and finished with 160 yards on 8 of 17 passing.
Directed by Pelini, the Husker defensive unit proved to be the star of the game. Pelini showed passion and intensity, and it wasn't conveyed more than when he was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct arguing a call in the fourth quarter.
"Usually we have to hold back players when they get too fired up," NU cornerback Lornell McPherson said. "Tonight, we had to hold him (Pelini) back. When we saw that, it got us fired up."
Pelini's Blackshirt defense took fed off their head coach's intensity as they confused and attached Michigan State's offense all game long with their alignments and speed rush.
"I felt like if I wasn't running or getting sacked, I was getting hit right after I threw the ball," Smoker said. "They were coming, that's for sure."
Seniors Demorrio Williams and Trevor Johnson tallied two sacks each and the defense hurried the Spartan quarterback nine times.
Johnson who also got two quarterback hurries, was named the game defensive MVP.
By holding Michigan State to only three points, the Huskers equaled the lowest point total by a bowl opponent in 42 bowl games.

Gophers endure bumpy ride vs. UNO at home
"The chain fell off the bike today," said Gophers coach Don Lucia, after a rare home loss.
MINNEAPOLIS — Don Lucia approached his postgame press conference Friday night clearly frustrated after his Gophers suffered a rare home loss.
"The chain fell off the bike today," Minnesota's head coach quipped.
That's one way to describe what took place Friday at Mariucci Arena as the Gophers fell 3-2 to the visiting Omaha Mavericks. For the first 20 minutes of the game, Minnesota was in control. It outshot UNO 10-6 and took a 2-1 lead into the first intermission.
From there, it was all Mavericks. The Gophers had just four shots in the second period. UNO, meanwhile, outshot Minnesota 21-11 in the game's final two periods.
"Guys seemed, for whatever reason, like they didn't have their legs tonight," Lucia said. "I don't want to take anything away from UNO. I thought they played well."
Minnesota seemed to lack energy and committed costly turnovers — including one that led to the eventual game-winner.
With the puck in the Gophers end, Minnesota forward Zach Budish attempted to make a pass from the boards. He instead hit Mavericks forward and Rosemount, Minn., native Ryan Walters right in the stick. Walters found a wide-open Josh Archibald — another Minnesota native — who beat Gophers goalie Adam Wilcox for a 3-2 UNO lead.
"We turned too many pucks over in front of their D," Lucia said. "There was no cohesiveness to our game tonight."
Part of Minnesota's inability to get pucks on net had to do with the size of UNO's defensemen. The Mavericks' top defensive pairing of Jaycob Megna and Andrej Sustr stands at 6-foot-7 and 6-foot-8, respectively. Omaha's remaining four defensemen all measure 6-foot-2 or taller.
"(Brian) Cooper and (Nick) Seeler are our two smallest (defensemen). We left them at home," said UNO coach Dean Blais. "The defensemen didn't give them a whole lot."
Omaha's defensemen had the size, but they also had the skill Friday to limit Minnesota's offense unlike any other opponent has done so far this year.
"They're big, long defensemen. … If we don't get the puck behind them, those guys can play really well when the puck's in front of them," said Gophers defenseman Nate Schmidt. "I can speak for all defensemen: it's a lot tougher to play with the puck behind you than it is with it in front of you the whole game."
For Omaha, the win increases its winning streak to seven in a row after beginning the year 3-3-1. The Mavericks have lost just one WCHA game so far this season. Minnesota is now 4-3-2 in conference play.
"They were the better team," Lucia said of the Mavericks. "They deserved to win the game. … We just didn't do enough to give ourselves a chance to win."
Minnesota hadn't lost a game at Mariucci Arena since last March against Wisconsin — a streak of six games that was broken with Friday's lackluster performance.
"It's never good to lose. I hope maybe it sparks a little bit better play for tomorrow night," Schmidt said. "We can't come out and play like we did at home in our last WCHA home series of the (calendar) year. We can't put together two periods like we did in the second and third period."
Warning returns to lineup: The Gophers had been without forward Sam Warning for over a month, as the sophomore was out with an upper body injury. But he returned to the lineup Friday against UNO and made an immediate impact on Minnesota's top line.
The 5-foot-9 Warning had the first assist on Budish's first-period goal after forward Erik Haula kept the puck in the zone. Haula found Warning, who flipped it to Budish for the equalizer.
"He was one of our better forwards tonight," Lucia said of Warning. "For not having played in a month, he seemed to have decent energy and made some plays."
It was Warning's third assist in five games this season. He scored six goals and added 10 assists as a freshman last year.

Montross Town Council held it's first public hearing on Feb. 28, regarding their reapplication for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) which, if granted, could net up to $750,000 to improve the downtown area of Montross.
The town is waiting for estimates from VDOT to settle the final amount it will request from the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development. Montross will present those figures at the continuation of the public hearing scheduled for 7 p.m. on March 12 at the town hall.
If granted, the money will be used for two types of improvements; physical changes which will focus on pedestrian safety in the downtown area and economic restructuring to benefit businesses.
Physical improvements will focus on three major pedestrian crosswalks over Route 3 in the downtown area of Montross; in front of the museum, the post office and the crossing from Angelo's towards the Carrot Cottage property.
The third location is just east of a sharp curve on Route 3 going through the heart of Montross. This crossing's surface would be painted to look like brick pavers to make it more visible. Recommended by VDOT, the cross walk would include in the improvements, lights in the pavement and signal lights to alert traffic traveling both ways on Route 3 that pedestrians

Larry Lee Waybright and Crystal Lynn Powers were both convicted on Feb. 24, in Westmoreland County Circuit Court of charges arising from an extensive investigation of two methamphetamine labs in Westmoreland County.
The authorities got wind of possible methamphetamine manufacture because of a letter intercepted by a corrections officer at Haynesville Correctional Center referring to the manufacture of methamphetamine. A follow-up investigation led police to laboratories at the homes of Larry Lee Waybright and a neighbor who is yet to be tried.
A confidential informant under the control of the police was sent to Waybright's home to buy drugs. Initially he bought Xanax. Then Waybright started to brag about the manufacture of methamphetamine. He offered to get meth for the confidential informant, which he did. Three days later, the informant returned and purchased more meth.

36 students were absent from Cople Elementary School on Thur. Feb. 16, and 30 more went home sick resulting in the Cople Elementary School closing on Friday due to illness. Nine teachers were also either absent or left that day from the illness.
The Virginia Department of Health has advised school officials that the illness is likely due to the Norovirus; a virus that causes the "stomach flu" or vomiting and diarrhea in people.
The virus is spread through person to person contact or coming in contact with either fecal matter or vomit. These bodily fluids can be spread if people who come in contact with them do not use proper hygiene procedures to keep them from spreading.

The sky's the limit," was the message sent by elected Westmoreland County officials when the locality's School Board and Board of Supervisors met jointly to discuss school division budget considerations that will drive 2012 tax rates.
The Westmoreland School Board requested an additional $2.6 million in local support one year ago and the Supervisors responded with a $750,000 increase. The Supervisors stood firm in their refusal to raise taxes and the county's school division received 61% of the taxes collected by the locality in the current budget year.
On Feb. 7 the Westmoreland School Board asked the Supervisors to give the county school division an additional $2,631,231 in local funding. The county's real estate tax rate would jump from the current 46 cents per hundred dollar value to 65 cents, according to Westmoreland

Martin Luther King Jr. Musical By The Guy Who Did Annie!
Well, with The Mountaintop having just opened and proving to be a sort of glorified sitcom with some heavy stuff sprinkled in, why not?
And this one won't have tap-dancing orphans and a big, lovable dog, it turns out.
It will "recount Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s faltering journey from defiant teenager to leader of an improbable nonviolent bus boycott, which ultimately set the tone for the civil rights movement.
"In this new musical, Dr. King is stunned and disappointed that students from an urban high school named after him, have little idea who he and his colleagues were in the civil rights movement.
Upcoming Events
"He takes them through his struggles with racism as a youth in Atlanta, his embrace of Mahatma Gandhi's peaceful means of protest, and the Montgomery bus boycott, where segregation on buses was declared illegal by the United States Supreme Court."
Charles Strouse (Annie, Bye Bye Birdie) did the score, Leslie Lee wrote the book, and it's called, surprise, Martin.
Sort of like Annie -- but not really. In fact, not at all!

Ben Fucks Arnaud - CockyBoys
Models: Arnaud Chagall and Ben Rose
Studio: Cocky Boys
Arnaud left such a great impression on everybody that I just had to get him back asap and put a cock in his hole! Ben was more than willing to participate and he couldn't wait to work over the new guy. It was a no-brainer - these two were about to fuck their brains out! Within minutes, Ben was face-fucking Arnaud and getting ready to plow his hole like there's no tomorrow. First, Ben's finger went up Arnaud's hole and I could clearly see the eagerness of his hole to swallow Ben's dick all the way to the balls. Next thing I know, Arnaud is getting fucked in every position and once again creaming all over his face like it's nobody's business but his! I am serious! The boy was literally drowning in cum. You have to see it to believe. Are you still reading this? Really?!
