Full Form of PPT :
PowerPoint Presentation
PPT Full Form is Microsoft PowerPoint Presentation. PPT refers to the Microsoft program presented in the form of slide show. It was officially launched in 1990. PPT is one of the most used forms of presentation in the current generation. Though it was originally designed for Microsoft, earlier it was called 'Presenter'. Dennis Austin and Thomas Dennis of the Forethought, Inc. developed PPT in 1987. Later this was renamed as PowerPoint. PPT comprises of several individual pages called 'slides'.
The slides are in the form of transparencies or plastic sheets, which are displayed or projected on a screen with the help of an overhead projector. These slides contain graphics, texts, sound, etc., which are organized freely. However, currently, most PPTs are offered as a part of computer systems and thus do not require any sheets or slides. PPT 97 VBA or Visual Basic for Applications language. PPT 2000 introduced 'clipboard', which is capable of holding multiple objects at the same time.
When we were school students, we would often rush to the computer lab to make random PowerPoint presentations and find utmost pleasure from it. Such was and is an entertainer: a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation File. Also known by its famously used abbreviated term PPT, a PowerPoint Presentation was developed by Microsoft in the year 1990 as a part of its Microsoft office suite. It is a slide show based presentation program, which is presently the most popularly used presentation programs across the globe. So let us find out three amazing points about a PPT file. So, here are those three things you should know about PPT:
History behind PPT
The program was originally developed for the Macintosh systems and was initially released under the name Presenter. It was designed by Dennis Austin and Thomas Rudkin, who worked for Forethought Inc. In the year 1987, the programme was renamed to its current PowerPoint because of a certain trademark issue. The idea behind the name is credited to Robert Gaskins. In the same year, Microsoft purchased Forethought for a handsome sum of money and made the latter its Graphic Business Unit. In the year 1990, the program was introduced as Microsoft PowerPoint, the launch of which coincided with the release of Microsoft 3.0.
New changes were made in the PowerPoint 97, which included the Visual basic for Applications (abbreviated as VBA). Following the 97 version, the PowerPoint 2000 was launched with new features such as a clipboard which can handle multiple objects at once. A major overhaul came along with the launch of PowerPoint 2000 which enabled the users to develop more advanced forms of animations. The 2011 version enabled removal of background images and addition of special effects like Pencil effects. As of the year 2012, Microsoft PowerPoint holds 95 percent of the presentation market share. It is possibly one of the most widely used programs of Microsoft
Operation of PowerPoint Presentation
A typical PPT comprises a number of pages or slides. The word slide is used to allude to a slide projector. These slides can contain images, text, movies, sound, animation, etc which can be freely arranged. PPT can be printed, or displayed live, or navigated across. For a large audience, the video projector is used. These slides often are part of webcasts. There are three kinds of movements that a PPT provide: Custom Animations, Transitions (which is essentially movement from one slide to another), and creation of storyboards with the help of custom animation.
Many features of a PPT are flexible and help in the creation of a professional PPT. Take, for example, it allows inclusion of music that can play while the presentation is ongoing. The presentation, for example, can also be designed to run according to a customized period. PPT can also be broadcast via Windows Live or link. Thus, there are many unique features incorporated in Microsoft PowerPoint presentation that give it an edge over other competing presentation programs in the market.
Cultural Impact of PPT
The reason why PPT is such a popular program is that it enables the user to present without wasting much time. It has provided for more advanced multimedia and animation features which help in creating professional presentations. The program has greatly impacted culture. In the military of the United States of America, a military member who makes heavy reliance on presentation software is nicknamed as a PowerPoint ranger. This is especially in respect of junior members, who spend much of their time in the preparation of PPT. Due to its handiness,
PPT has become an essential part of military briefings. However, still, many regard it as a poor tool for decision-making. Many generals are known to have prohibited the use of PPT. PPT has become a powerful tool in the dissemination of artistic works to the public. David Byrne, a musician, uses PPT to communicate his art, which is pretty unique, to say the least. All this brings us to one question on the effectiveness of a PPT. Well, this is a debatable issue, as many surveys and assessments have failed to conclude on its effectiveness. Some surveys show high effectiveness from the use of PPT while the other surveys show the opposite.

A theory of propagation of waves inside a sphere is developed by using a metric in which the coordinates of a point are defined by its position along the trace of a ray reflected singly, or multiply, from the surface. The coordinates in this metric are orthogonal. Application of the theory is illustrated for propagation of a compressional pulse in a liquid sphere. The wave equation in the new metric is solved asymptotically in the limit of large wave-numbers. The resulting initial amplitudes of the reflected pulses are found to be in agreement (except for a factor of 2) with the results derived by Jeffreys & Lapwood, who used the classical methods of spherical harmonic representation, the Watson transformation, ray expansion, and the method of steepest descent.

Kodak and Xerox push kiosks
They hope to cash in on growing photo printing market
(feb 2008) — Decked out in Kodak yellow and silvery gray and topped with a touch-screen monitor, the boxy photo kiosk at the CVS drugstore on Mt. Hope Avenue looks like a kitchen stove out of The Jetsons.And it can put customers' digital images on just about anything, from standard prints and greeting cards to photo books and calendars.Two of Rochester's major employers, Eastman Kodak Co. and Xerox Corp., are banking on such photo kiosks to churn out big bucks for them. The two companies are in Las Vegas this week for the Photo Marketing Association's 2008 international trade show, the photo imaging industry's annual confab. Both hope to make a big splash in a rapidly growing field.The specialty photo printing market — including everything from calendars to customized trading cards — is expected to grow nearly 25 percent a year through 2010, hitting $800 million in revenue, according to the market research firm InfoTrends.A 2007 report on the U.S. photo industry by PMA Marketing Research found that the photo book market was on course to triple in size from 2005, with expectations for even more growth in 2008.
Xerox will share a booth at the trade show with partner Fujifilm USA, a subsidiary of Japanese photo giant Fujifilm Corp., as they pitch such products as a Fuji photo kiosk using a Xerox Phaser or DocuColor printer.This week, Xerox also announced its new "Picture Me Profitable Kit" — a collection of guides, templates and reference materials for photo labs and retailers to help them design and produce specialty photo products they can then turn out on Xerox printers.
And FujiFilm announced earlier this month that the Ritz Camera Centers chain, with roughly 1,000 sites nationwide, would start using Xerox Phaser 7760 color laser printers to produce photo books, calendars and greeting cards through the in-store kiosks or the Ritz Web site.
Kodak, meanwhile, is unveiling a variety of products at the trade show, including its DL2100 printer for use in photo kiosks to turn consumers' digital photos into two-sided calendars, photo books and greeting cards immediately instead of necessitating a return visit for pickup.The company also will introduce its G4X kiosk, which, when paired with a DVD burner, can turn out a DVD featuring photos and music from original artists in a few minutes.With 90,000 locations nationwide, Kodak dominates the photo kiosk market, said Rowan Lawson, worldwide marketing director for Kodak's retail systems solutions.The lineup of companies in Las Vegas reads like a who's who in digital imaging, including Hewlett-Packard Co., Nikon Inc. and Sony Electronics Inc."PMA is a great opportunity to stand out," Lawson said."All of the right people, whether they're big customers down to small … stores, they're all there."

How to Buy Zeolite in California
Holistic Health Remedies
Zeolite Products, The Main US Manufacturer of Zeolite is currently under attack from FDA in California, and some other parts of the US. Here is the letter I got when trying to order some natural zeolite powder, the formula Zeolite-AV (a must have for emergencies) I take as a preventative or before I go visit a sick friend/relative, going to a large public gathering, around sick kids or going on a cruise ship:
After 12 years of being on the market and helping people with no issues or consumer complaints, the FDA is looking at our products to say the active mineral zeolite is not safe (even though it is on the GRAS list, used in food products, used in pharmaceuticals, water filtration, animal feed, etc.). There seems to be some hidden agenda here that no one knows about, but it is clear that the FDA and pharmaceutical companies don't like natural products that are helping people. In the spirit of cooperation with the FDA, we voluntarily halted sales until we can show all of the safety data to them and they have had a chance to analyze it. We hope to have some resolution soon. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, and will contact you as soon as we resume selling.
They want us to eat unhealthy foods (margarine, trans fats, industrial chemicals) but herbs, food, raw milk, natural foods without pesticides and antibiotics, and minerals, not on your life. A prominent US Senator has been challenging their unethical methods of getting money from the chemical and GMO companies and trying to stop it. You can read about it here.
Natural News (Mike Adams, aka Health Ranger) has tried to get the sale of zeolite stopped as well recently. Unfortunately when something natural really works, (cancer cures, cannabis oil, etc, it is prohibited, because the chemical companies lose money if it actually works and cures people.) Annie's Organics and Bert's Bees are the latest examples). News sources also get corrupted, National Geographic was just bought out by Rupert Murdoch.
You can see how valuable this natural mineral is to your health. I haven't been sick in over 30 years, other than occasional sinus allergies (no vaccines either!) and regularly take Zeolite Detox. Here is the real research (a downloadable pdf file) on how safe and effective natural zeolite powder really is: www.zeohealth.com/NaturalNewsResponse.pdf
Here's Where to Buy Zeolite in California:
Fortunately there is a supplier of zeolite detox that is a good formula that ships to California that is even Organic! It is called 19 and you can get it shipped for free now! Just click on the banner below and get the gunk out of your brain and body and protect/restore your health:
Zeotrex – Organic Zeolite Formula
It's a friggin shame that we have an organization that is supposed to protect us against harmful things, and they instead approve the harmful things ($$$ are involved for sure) and natural foods and herbs can't be sold or have listed the health benefits (almonds, walnuts, hemp, apricot seeds, that kill cancer cells) and now zeolite (a natural mineral.)
I'm sure they don't want us to have any good protections for the cancer causing crap they are putting into our food (GMO and pesticides), Vaccine Dangers (mercury, viruses, thiomersol), Drinking Water Toxins (fluoride, pharmaceuticals, brain eating amoeba, etc).
Listen to what Gary Null, Phd. (Holistic Health Researcher, Natural Health Advocate) has to say about why the FDA does not want natural remedies to be used (they call walnuts, almonds, apricots, herbs and homeopathy "unhealthy and harmful" while Doritos, Junk Foods, Radiation, Vaccines, Chemotherapy and Pharmaceutical Medications are Healthy" WTF? (what the frock, lol):
Zeolite Benefits
Pharmaceutical grade Zeolite Benefits. Zeolite has a whole lot of health protecting and restoring benefits that you need to know about:
- Natural Cancer Fighter (smothers out tumors safely, without toxic chemicals)
- Natural Anti-Viral (coats viruses and pathogens so your immune system can detect them and kill them the way they are supposed to)
- Safe Heavy Metal Detoxifier (removes, radiation particles, fluoride, mercury, lead, aluminum and many other toxic metals safely and quickly)
- Build up your immune system naturally so you're rarely ever sick and equipped to fight off whatever "bug" of the month is going around
- Makes your body healthy Alkaline (disease is acidic)
- Removes Free Radicals that cause aging and things like Alzheimer's and Arthritis
- Now being shown to help diabetics remove excess glucose from the body
Zeolite is a natural mineral that is formed when a volcano erupts and the hot lava meets the cool sea water below. Nature has created something for almost any disease, illness or condition a person (or animal) may be exposed to. You can find out more about how zeolite works, and why it is the most important natural remedy and should be in your first aid kit at: http://ZeoliteDetox.review

(NAPSI)—Sleep schedules, diaper changes and when to feed the baby are only some of the things parents worry about during their childs first three years. Another is making sure baby is getting the nutrition he or she needs. What and how much babies need to eat changes as they grow, and understanding these stages is important, especially if you have a baby with a food allergy.
0−6 months
Throughout the first six months, its crucial to give your baby the nutrients and foods he or she needs. For mothers who breast-feed their baby, ensure you are eating 2,500−2,800 calories a day. Some who breast-feed their baby have trouble getting their necessary vitamins; contact your physician if you think you may need supplements.
Mothers who feed their baby infant formula should ensure it includes DHA and ARA, nutrients found in breast milk. DHA and ARA are critical to promoting brain and eye development in your baby.
If you think your baby has a food allergy, at this age its likely a milk allergy. If youre breastfeeding your infant, remove all allergens from your diet including dairy products.
For those using infant formula, if your baby is diagnosed with a food allergy, talk to your pediatrician about switching to an elemental formula like Neocate, which also contains DHA and ARA.
6−12 months
Six months of age is the healthy time to introduce your baby to solid foods.
Adding solid foods to a childs diet is an important milestone in his or her development, says Steven Yannicelli, Ph.D., R.D., vice president of medical and scientific affairs for Nutricia North America. As you gradually introduce your child to solid food, it is important to continue to give him or her formula separately or mixed with cereals. If there is any concern of food allergies, introduce solid foods slowly.
If you are worried about food allergic reactions but want to start on solid foods, check out Neocate Nutra. Its a hypoallergenic, semisolid medical food similar to yogurt that you can feed children over 6 months old.
1−3 years
By age 1, your baby will have a larger appetite and graduated to fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
In this age group, many children are able to get the majority of their nutrition from solid foods while still drinking milk. However, if your little one has milk and food allergies, it can be more difficult because they are limited in the types of solid foods that may be tolerated. Growing children with food allergies may not always get the nutrition they need solely from solid foods. Providing them an elemental formula specially formulated for their age may be necessary, says Yannicelli.

Chinese, Korean and Japanese Versions of One Noodle Bowl and Where to Find Them
Tianjin-style lo mein at China Jade in Aurora.
Mark Antonation
I'm always fascinated by the migration of specific dishes from one region to another and the transformations that take place ov er time and distance. A couple of weeks ago, I discovered the jajangmyeon noodles at P & Y Cafe, 2769 South Parker Road in Aurora. Researching the dish's history, I learned that the jet-black jajangmyeon originated as Chinese zhajiangmian — a dish most popular in Beijing, nearby Tianjin and a little farther south in Shandong — when workers from the Shandong province of Eastern China were sent by the Chinese military to Korea, initially in the final years of the nineteenth century, and took many Chinese recipes with them. The common features of both zhajiangmian and jajangmyeon are pork, long wheat noodles and a sauce made from fermented soybean paste. In China, yellow-bean paste or sweet bean paste are used, depending on the cook and the region.
Comparing versions of the dish in Denver seemed like a tasty immersion in culinary history, so I located another example of jajangmyeon and several instances of its Chinese forebear — and also learned that the dish's path through Asia didn't end in Korea, but also took it to the shores of Japan.
The best place to start exploring it here is at one of the two locations of Zoe Ma Ma — the original, at 1020 Tenth Street in Boulder, or the newer shop next to Union Station. At both, housemade noodles are nestled beneath a dark, meaty sauce of slow-cooked pork and a pile of julienned veggies — cucumber being the most prominent. It's a homey, stewy dish like many others cooked by owner Edwin Zoe's mother, Anna.
Zhajiangmian at Zoe Ma Ma in downtown Denver.
Danielle Lirette
China Jade, at 12203 East Iliff Avenue in Aurora, serves a soupier style, labeled Tianjin-style lo mein (the words "mian" and "mein" both mean "noodles"). At first I wasn't certain this dish was related to zhajiangmian, but the julienned cucumber, slightly funky note of soybean paste, ground pork and thick, square-cut noodles were giveaways. The sauce had been diluted into a glossy broth, and two kinds of mushrooms added earthy flavor; the lingering presence of star anise gave the bowl a wintry note. The noodles were chewy and firm, reminding me of their distant Italian cousin served at Patsy's, at 3651 Navajo Street.
On the west side of town, you can also find zhajiangmian at Lao Wang Noodle House, at 1045 South Federal Boulevard, where it's labeled simply as "Chinese-style spaghetti" on the English menu (maybe the Patsy's comparison isn't so outlandish), but footnoted with a description of "succulent soy bean-based sauce" that hints at its true provenance.
The Korean-Chinese jajangmyeon is a little harder to track down; it's much blacker, saucier and more powerful than the Chinese original — at least in Denver. Aside from the P & Y Cafe, the best source is the hard-to-spot Yong Gung at 2040 South Havana Street in Aurora. If you have trouble finding it, just park between the M Mart and Seoul Korean BBQ in the same shopping center. While Yong Gung's exterior is rather nondescript, the dining room inside is bright, modern and bustling (except on Wednesdays, when the eatery is closed). Like the jajangmyeon at P & Y, Yong Gung's is inky black, viscous, and served in a big bowl with scissors for chopping up the noodles. It's a dish meant to be shared, and the waiter instructed me to stir and chop thoroughly before distributing into smaller bowls. While P & Y's version was pungent, salty and packed full of barely cooked diced onions, Yong Gung's was smooth and mild, studded with mushrooms and touched with something unmistakably buttery. It was a good counterpoint to the kitchen's sticky, flame-red fried chicken wings, which packed as much heat as their color suggested.

Mark Antonation
Noodles also jumped from the Chinese mainland across the East China Sea to influence Japanese cooking, especially in that country's ramen houses. Dan dan noodles, a fiery product of China's Sichuan province, became tan tan men in Japan, retaining the heat while adopting a more distinctly Japanese noodle style.
Zhajiangmian also found its way to Japan, where it evolved into ja ja men, a ramen dish that I had been unable to find on Denver menus. I checked with experts, but struck out on calls to Domo and Sakura House, both known for traditional ramen bowls. I also reached out to Jeff Osaka, chef-owner of Osaka Ramen (2611 Walnut Street and 2817 East Third Avenue), who said he hadn't encountered ja ja men in Denver, but suggested that perhaps Sushi Den had put the dish on its noodle menu at some point in the South Pearl Street restaurant's thirty-year history. And that's where I met with success — at least partially.
Yasu Kizaki, who owns Sushi Den with his brother Toshi, pointed out that ja ja men — found mostly in larger Japanese cities in traditional Chinese restaurants — is a dry style and so is generally served in warmer weather, when diners may not want a steaming bowl of broth. At Sushi Den, spicy, soupy tan tan men ramen is served year-round, but during the summer a dry style is offered that's similar to zhajiangmian, only spicier. Sushi Den's menu also includes brothless hiyashi-chuka, a warm-weather noodle bowl that translates as "cold Chinese," owing to its roots on the continent.
Like zhajiangmian and jajangmyeon, hiyashi-chuka is served heaped with fresh vegetables including cucumber, and it's mild rather than spicy; Sushi Den also adds tomatoes, julienned charshu pork and julienned omelet. Kizaki says that Ototo, the brothers' smaller restaurant across the street from Sushi Den, will likely offer both ja ja men and hiyashi-chuka as specials in July and August.
Denver may not be Beijing, or even a magnet for international immigrants, like New York City or Los Angeles, but with a little digging, you can take a historical tour through our city's Chinese, Korean and Japanese eateries by just following one noodle dish. And who knows? Maybe some day a few decades from now, a food-loving Coloradan will be able to track the evolution of Denver-style zhajiangmian.

Saha tipped for France role
Patrice Evra believes Manchester United team-mate Louis Saha will be fit to play for France this weekend.
By Patrick Haond
Last Updated: 09/10/07 3:20pm
Patrice Evra believes Manchester United team-mate Louis Saha will be fit to play for France this weekend.
Saha was not able to play any part in United's 4-0 victory over Wigan on Saturday after injuring his knee just before kick-off.
The striker has been beset by injuries since moving to Old Trafford and only recently returned to the United side.
Sir Alex Ferguson insisted last week that Saha's call-up to the France squad was not a concern, as he did not necessarily expect him to play.
But Evra thinks Saha could feature in the Euro 2008 qualifier against Faroe Islands on Saturday.
"Louis is a little short (of fitness)," Evra told radio station RMC Info.
"He warmed up on Saturday, but his knee had swollen and he had to withdraw.
"He will reply to the French team call, and will be available for Saturday because that will make it one week of rest.
"It had swollen but there was no pain. He doesn't take any risks.
"To me, it won't be a surprise to see him playing, but of course Ferguson could moan because Louis didn't play with us."

good, technical trail. fairly well maintained. good hard ride. bi-directional trail with relatively little traffic.

Pop-Up Chapel
The Universal Life Church Ministries is unfortunate in that it rarely gets to observe first-hand the wedding ceremonies performed by the hundreds of men and women it ordains every day. So, while thousands of marriages have been officiated by our ministers since the ULC Ministries was founded in 2006, the ULC has only been able to witness a handful as official guests.
Our organization is also frequently frustrated by the level to which we can assist gay rights organizations in the push for marriage equality in America, despite our long-standing vocal support for it. Despite providing the means to create wedding officiants who will perform gay wedding ceremonies and the financial support we have given to gay rights organizations, the ULC has for a long time wished to be on the forefront of the push for marriage equality but has been unsure how to do so.
This all changed on July 30, 2011.
On this day, four staff members of the Universal Life Church Ministries traveled to New York to attend the Pop-Up Chapel in New York City's world-renowned Central Park. 24 gay couples were married in ceremonies performed by 12 wedding officiants, eight of which were ordained by the ULC Ministries, at Merchant's Gate near Columbus Circle. Twelve couples were married under two custom-designed and temporarily-built "chapels". While the event was not open to the public, hundreds of spectators were able to view the weddings from a dozen feet away and cheer on the newly-wedded couples.
This event was made possible by the New York State senate's June 24 decision to legalize gay marriage in the Empire State. This decision, which was passed thanks mostly to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and the cross-party coalition he fostered, made New York the sixth state in the United States in which gay marriage is possible. Some claim that New York's decision to legalize gay marriage may push a slew of states to follow suit.
In short, the ULC was proud to attend the event, see its ministers use their online ordinations, and take part in the forefront of the push for marriage equality and we hope to attend similar events in other states where gay marriage is legalized.

Hi as you know from my request of villagers. I need good villagers. You can submit the day your villagers leave (PST/PDT TIME ZONE), who the villager's name is, and your 3DS Friend Code. I am available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to accept your friend requests. As long as they are acceptable characters and not ugly ones (ex. Diva, Tiffany, Rénee, etc.). Here are more questions I need answers too:
1. What does it mean for a villager to be able to time travel or not? 2. Are you able to visit a player's town if they're your friend and is offline?

Tummies, Minds, & Spirits will holistically transform lives by providing learners with the necessary psycho-social skills to achieve their absolute best.
The goal is to create and help implement a comprehensive reproducible model that communities can use to break the cycles of poverty.
Tummies, Minds and Spirits was introduced to the work of Community Cohesion while on an educational trip to Cape Town in 2011. Both NGO's have collaborated and shared their vision to come up with the Hangberg Project. There was an immediate connection between Rochelle and Bronwyn and they decided to explore their common desire for social change.
The Hangberg project is the result of this desire. It has been strategically chosen out of all the work that both NGO's do as it is a manageable test site, it has measurables in place, and most importantly, the community of Hangberg are ready and willing partners.
Both of our groups realize that this is a work in progress and that what appears perfect in theory can fall apart in practice. The only guarantee we can give is that we are committed to the success of the project. We have the right teams in place, in the United States and in South Africa. We are not the owners of this change, but the custodians and drivers of it, and are willing to work with whatever other partners might come along; we are open to what they can bring on board as long as they share our vision and commitment.
The Hangberg Project is the start. We roll out from here.
We are a collective of like-minded people with the same objectives: working towards alleviating poverty through education.
We apply the Business for Development Model (B4D) ensuring that we are sustainable and are able to fund NGO's around the world.
We have partnered with a variety of trail-blazers and willingly utilize their experience to realize our vision.
We have created a viable and creditable platform for others to be part of the solution.
We are enabling people to be the change they want to see in the world.

Ideal for oil-based paints, Masterpiece Artfix Oil Primed Linen Canvas is primed by hand with two coats of size and one coat of oil-based primer. The archival-quality Belgian linen canvas has a 13 oz primed weight.
A superior tongue-and-groove bracing system eliminates the need for glue, staples, or other materials that prevent expansion of the entire frame. Canvas 16" x 20" and larger is cross-braced for additional strength and tension in the canvas and on the frame.
Staple-free edges are perfect for frameless presentation, and folded corners with an uncut selvage allow for re-stretching if desired.
Masterpiece Artfix Oil Primed Linen Canvas is available in two profiles:
• Vincent Pro — 7/8" profile with a 5/16" relief between the bar face and canvas back.
• Monet Pro — 1-1/2" profile with a 1/2" relief between the bar face and canvas back.

Linen and oil primed.
By Carl
from Edmonds, Wa
Comments about Masterpiece Vincent Pro Artfix Oil Primed 7/8" Profile Linen Canvas:
Not certain if this is the best quality that is on the market, however the high quality of this product can not be found in art stores I have ever visited. Not even Blick has this in their store it has to be ordered on line. Linen primed in oil is smooth to paint on, less paint is needed. Looks more professional. I have noticed some customers have complained about waves in the canvas. There is a reason there are keys in the stretcher bars, and they can also be just restretched in the area if there is a wave in the canvas.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I was dissapointed the linen was not tight on the supports
By D the artist
from Green Cove Springs, FL
I wanted to use a high quality product for a commission and was disappointed that the linen was not stretched tight on the supports. It had buckles and waves in the surface. I used another product for my work. I was expecting superior product and was greeted with so-so.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: We're sorry to hear that you aren't happy with the quality of this canvas. Although each canvas is tested to ensure proper tension before it leaves the Masterpiece factory, changes in environmental conditions can cause a canvas to slacken. Moist air causes cotton and linen to shrink, and they will slacken under drier conditions. Because this is unavoidable, Masterpiece includes keys in the corners and cross-brace joints that can be used to tighten the canvas. If you have questions on using the keys, our Product Specialists are here to help. Just call 1-800-933-2542 (8am-5:30pm CST M-F) or email email@example.com. As always, if you feel that the canvas simply will not meet your needs, you're covered under our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee.

poor quality
By Craig Murphy
from Westerly RI
These canvas's our the best you have to offer. The first time they came in they had ripples in two out of three, I called to return got the usual I'm sorry said they would replace, asked them to please inspect before shipping out, which was acknowledged. Came in surprise surprise same problem. I am a member of two art organizations. Not good for Blick.
Merchant response: Thank you for taking the time to share your comments on this canvas. Changes in humidity can cause the canvas to slacken at any time, so a canvas that's well-stretched by the manufacturer may be taut in our warehouse and looser when it arrives to you. The canvas may re-tighten on its own with time, or you can tighten the canvas using the corner keys that are pre-installed in the stretcher frame for this purpose. Of course, we do offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and we're happy to work with you on a return, but we invite you to work with our Product Specialists if you would like further information on maintaining a taut surface. You can reach them by phone at 1-800-933-2542 (weekdays 8am to 5:30pm CST) or email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The perfect canvas
By Kathleen
from Kennesaw Ga
This canvas is the best. Even weave..no blemishes in the linen...tight as a drum...the surface has just the right amount of tooth to it...I like as smooth canvas but not one that is as smooth as glass. I hope these are made forever..my perfect canvas search is over. I highly recommend these canvasses.

excellent product, poor shipping
By painter
from Toledo, OH
These oil-primed linen surfaces are expensive, but stretched tightly, a beautiful, fine-grained surface, worth it to me. Why Dick Blick shipped it to me in a paper bubble ENVELOPE is a mystery to me, I am a professional artist and buy these as I am mindful of using archival products and surfaces. Normally I purchase products locally but couldn't get this at the time, so I looked online; I will not be ordering here again, stretched canvases need to be shipped in BOXES, obviously.
True Bliss
By Capn' Smock
from Myrtle Beach, SC
As an artist painting in oils for some years now, I have used quite an array of surfaces over the years. I purchased one of these quite some time ago and only recently got around to using it. I now wish I had used it immediately. The stretcher bar and cross brace, on the 16"x20" were completely knot free which was a work of art all by itself. The oil primed linen was just gorgeous and had no unsightly defects at all. The finished painting's beauty was assisted enormously by the back-staple stretching used to assemble these canvases and a huge plus being 5/16" relief from the stretcher bar to the canvas, completely doing away with stretcher bar impressions in the paint. I am now buying more of these and will only use these canvases in the future for any painting other than studies. I would include a photo of the painting however I had to get it to the gallery before thinking of doing this review. Please do yourself a favor though, and at least try one. YOU WILL BE SOLD!

I thought the damn press would never leave. Jack was thinking to himself as he drove home the night of September 8th, 1961. Someone found the corpse of a young woman down by the docks and Jack and a group of eight other cops had been instructed to hold back the mobs of press and citizens who seemed all too eager to go and poke at the dead body while the site was cordoned off and detectives began to gather evidence. Apparently, this now takes 4 hours and involves the vultures from the press always looking for a new story to sell. Jack drove home angry at the slow as molasses reaction to the crime by his superiors. But as he drove home to his home in the Sea Cliff neighborhood, he was not in store for the shock he would recieve soon enough. When he got home at 7:00, he felt incredibly hungry, being forced to skip lunch to prevent a riot by the press. Brigid said she would marrinate some steak for dinner, so that was something to look foward to. When he entered, he found Brigid sitting in a leather recliner he usually sat in during his time home. She then jumped up and hurridly moved over to him, kissing him and hugging him tightly. She also took off his police cap and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt. Jack smiles and asks "Why are you so happy today?" Brigid takes both his hands and folds them across her chest. "Jack, you don't know?" she asks. Jack looks at her with a confused expresion and asks "About what?" "Jack..." she begins. "I'm pregnant!"
Jack felt as if his stomach had just turned inside out. "Your... What?" he asked nervously. "Pregenant, Jack!" she says with a very excited tone. "Can you believe it?" she says. "Our own child!" No, I can't. Jack thinks to himself. Anita walks up and says to Jack "Daddy, I can't wait, I wish I could have a new brother though!" Jack was 10% happy and about 90% terrified. Since he had spliced so heavily in Rapture, he had no idea what the long term effects were. Sure, he had a heightened resistance to damage. He had taken a few bullet hits to his arms and legs in the past and walked them all off. But he was fearful for what would happen to his wife or their child due to all the ADAM. Would it kill them both or would some unpredictible scientific catastrophe ruin his life? He would have to wait to find out. He never told Brigid of his fears, lest he ignite the same fears he felt in her. When asked of what he thought the baby's gender would be, Jack would simply pat her swollen belly and say they'd have to find out.
On March 15th, 1962 that day came. As Jack waited outside the hospital room, his mind swam with thoughts of what would happen. The whole time, he rested his elbows on his thighs and looked to the ground with a downcast expression. He heard the door open after what seemed like an eternity. A nurse stepped out. Jack looked up, dreading her next words. "Mr. Ryan?" she said. "Come and see your new child." Jack felt an enormous sense of relief wash over him. as far as he could tell, his child was born without a hitch. He entered the room and walked over to Brigid. She looked tired and worn out, but she was smiling. She was craddiling a infant wrapped in white cloth. "We have a son, Jack! A beautiful baby boy!" she said happily. A doctor strolled over, untying his surgical mask. "Congratulations, Mr. Ryan. It looks like you are the father of a healthy boy. He was born without a hitch, and seems unnaturally strong and active for a newborn though." Jack looked at him in fear and said "Is that a bad thing...?" The doctor responded "Oh no no no! This is a great thing! It can be assured that your boy will be healthy in life." Jack sighed in relief. He turned back to Brigid. "What should we name him?" he asked. "Hmmm. How about Jack Ryan, Jr!" Jack shook is head. "No way I'm going for that. I was thinking something more unique. How about... Orson? Not exactly common, huh?" he said. Brigid considered it for a moment and said "I'd love that. Orson it is."
Orson grew quickly. He learned to walk 3 months after he was born and began basic words and phrases by the time he was 11 months old. Certainly, this was quite unnatural. Jack was always wondering if this was due to his splicing or something else. He didn't know. As long as his wife and child were fine, he had no problem with it. As Orson grew, it became evident that he was strong and intelligent far beyond the capacities of a normal kid.
June, 1968
Orson was 7 now and started to look a lot like his father. Tall for his age, dark hair and eyes, and a rather muscular frame. He looked like a kid who would love to play football when he's older. In fact, Jack tossed a football back and forth with him almost every day. Today, it was the start of summer and Jack mercifully had the day off. As they played ball, Brigid idily leaned against the door frame, watching them play ball. It eerily reminded her of the day she discovered ADAM, watching the two fishermen throwing a ball back and fort as she approached them.
At that moment, she realized how much has changed since Rapture. She had gone from a rather downtrodden and cynical woman to a proud mother of 5 daughters and a son. She had a steady job and a family that loves her. And to imagine, all this really began down in Rapture, down in the Fontaine Futuristics labs when she first met that little infant designed to be a virtual slave and ended up being the one who saved her and the Little Sisters from a terrible faith and defeated the most powerful man in the city, as well as being the man she would love. Time sure does fly, huh?
After reflecting on all this, she pulled herself back to the real world and called "Jack! Orson! Lunch is ready!" And watched her husband and son rush inside to eat.
November, 1974
Orson was now 12. As he grew, he seemed to develop various traits symbolic of both his mother and father, who both sometimes debated over where he got a certain trait from, Jack or Brigid. But today, it looks like Jack's traits as a fighter and a upright person. Today, it seemed he had taken that to a whole new level.
"So, the principal at your school told us you beat up three high school Juniors after one of your football games?" Jack was asking Orson. Jack, Brigid, and Orson had all gathered in the living room to discuss a recent accusation that Orson had in fact defeated three high schoolers after a football game, which neitheir Jack or Brigid had attended. "But dad!" Orson said "I didn't do it cause I wanted to! I had no choice, you see they were--" "Orson!" Brigid said in anger. "You can't fight your way out of every problem!" "Mom!" he said. "It wasn't my problem I was fighting for."
"Then who's?" she asked. "It was..." Orson began. "Who?" Jack asked. "A... cheerleader from our team..." Orson said, looking at the ground. "Wait... what?" Jack asked. "Why?"
"Because, these three meatheads from the local high school had came over to watch the game or something, and they found her walking out alone. I don't know what their motive was, I mean fooling around with a girl 2 years younger than you? They were saying all these horrible things to her... I couldn't just let it go! I came over there and told them to stop, they told me to leave and let them have the girl to 'themselves,' so I came over and pushed the ringleader and told them to leave. They laughed, one of them pushed me down. I got up and kneed one of them in the stomach and tried one more time to get them to stop without fighting... But they ignored me and actually attacked me. I had to defend myself and that girl."
At that moment Jack became incredibly pleased and proud of Orson, sticking up for a poor girl all alone he didn't even know that well. Jack wouldn't have the guts to confront three guys twice his height and strength and tell them to stop at whatever they were doing. He opened his mouth to actually commend Orson, but Brgid beat him to it. But, she was condeming, not commending this time. "Orson, that's enough. Go to your room." Orson frowned and got up. Jack followed him. "Dad, look I'm sorry, I didn't want to do it, I just..." Jack shook his head. "No Orson, I'm not mad at you, not a bit." Orson looked suprised. "You're... what?" Jack nodded. "Orson, I'm proud of you. You did the right thing. I could never muster up the courage to do that all by myself."
Orson smiled for the first time in a while. "You... really think so?" he asked. "Sure do." Jack replied. "Now, tell me about this girl. What's her name?" he asked, hoping to take his mind of the subject matter. "Well, I think she is named Arya." Jack nodded. "What does she look like? She cute?" Orson thought for a moment. "She is about 2 inches shorter than me, she has long, dark red hair, and light green eyes." Jack grinned at him. "You like redheads?" he asked. Orson tried his best to suppress a grin, but failed. "Yeah." Jack crossed his arms. "Aw, you so got that from me. Redheads and brunettes were always my thing. I mean look at your mother? When I met her 14 years ago, she was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. And you know what? She still is. Well, I hope you get closer with this girl when you see her. You did a good thing. Now lets get going, dinner should be ready."
The next day, at Orson's school.
Orson had finished stuffing his football gear inside his locker and tried to brush off a grass stain on his shirt, which obviously did not wipe off. He walked across the field to a gate that pointed in the general direction of his street. "Orson?" he heard someone say. He turned around. It was Arya. "Hi. I just wanted to thank you for what you did for me. I didn't get a chance to. You just ran off once you layed out those guys." Orson smiled a bit. "I just couldn't stand by. I was afraid I would get in trouble if I hanged around." Her eyes went wide. "Did you...?" "Oh no." Orson responded. "Oh. Thats good. I couldn't bear knowing a person got punished for me." Orson shook his head. "It was no problem. I guess I'll just see you around then..." She stopped him. "Orson, no wait! I was just wondering if you could walk me home. I don't live to far from here and I think I'm going in the same direction your going, too. I'm just... A little scared about what happened." Orson smiled. "Sure. Where do you live?"
"4 McLaren Avenue." She reponded. "Oh! I live at 8 Seacliff Avenue!" Orson reponded with delight. She smiled.
"Wow really?!" They they kicked off a long and rambling conversation, starting with their home lives, their parents, and concluding with comments on how horrible their math and science teachers were. Before he knew it, she was safetly at home. "Thank you, Orson. I'll see you around." she said, before giving a quick grin before turning around to walk inside. Orson turned to head to his own home, a triumphant smile on his face all the way home.
In the coming weeks, Arya and Orson grew considerably closer. They found out that they had most classes together and started to walk to their home together every day. They would always wait for their respective practices to be over at the end of every day and go home. Their friendship was rather strange one to have, as she was a rather popular girl while Orson, all though an avid football player, was content to always hang out with his close knot of friends and didn't always go with the crowd.
Towards the end of eighth grade, Orson waited for Arya to finish her cheer practice, which was running a bit longer today, and go on home. But today, it was different. As they walked the usually quiet route home, swapping opinions on a recent math test, Orson heard heavy footsteps behind them which had been following them the whole time. He glanced back for a second and almost had a heart attack. It was the ringleader of the Juniors from the highschool he had singlehandidly defeated the day he met Arya. Orson and Arya both stopped. "Arya, I want you to go now. Just run, get out of here." Orson said quietly. Arya shook her head. "No way." Orson bit his lip. "This is not an arguement. Get out of here before something happens." The Junior laughed. "Well, well. You remember me, punk?" Orson frowned. "How can I forget such an ugly mug like that?" he snapped back at the Junior. The Junior chuckled. "Haven't lost an ounce of confidence, have we now. I see you made a friend too." he said, motioning to Arya. Orson pulled her behind him. "Just leave us be, okay?"
"Or what?" the Junior replied. "I can assure you, you won't be taking me down today. I'm gonna make sure they find you bleeding like a pig!" Orson crossed his arms. "I'm not here looking for trouble. What is your problem? Get over it and go home." The Junior took a few steps closer to the pair. "My problem is you. You ruined me. I want to return the favor." Orson moved closer to him. "Maybe if you used your head, it never would have happened."he said coolly. He turned around to simply walk away before he felt a sharp blow to the back of his head. He stummbled and whipped around. The Junior had both fists clenched and held up in a fighting stance. "Bring it, tough guy!" the Junior said angerly. Orson threw a punch, but he neatly dodged to the side and socked Orson in the gut. Orson fell to his knees and heard Arya scream. He stumbled to get up, hiding the look of pain on his face. He readied himself again. The Junior threw another punch, but this time Orson extended his left arm and blocked his blow by pushing it off to the side. He then kneed the Junior in his gut. As he bent over, Orson elbowed him in the back. He turned back to Arya. "Look, just leave now!" Arya started to argue but Orson said in a rather commanding voice, just a bit too much, "Go!" She turned and ran down a lane.
"My dad thought me that one!" he said to the Junior as he got up. The Junior scowled and aimed another blow to his face. Orson tried to duck under it, but he was still hit on his left cheek. Orson attacked seconds later. They sparred for a few minute with no clear winner. The Junior got the upperhand after he tripped up Orson and pinned him in the sidewalk. The Junior smiled maliciously. "Oh, what's this? The brave Orson Ryan got pinned by me? What a turn of events!" he aimed a punch right above Orson's heart. He struggled to push him off, but the Junior was too heavy. He braced for the impact and...
It never came. He opened his eyes. Arya stood behind the Junior, holding a wodden plank which had a large portion hanging off it by a thread. The Junior was sprawled out next to her, a massive bump on the back of his head. Arya was breathing heavily. She threw the plank over a fence. "Is he... dead?" she asked. Orson checked and shook his head. "He'll be fine. You just knocked him cold!" he said with a grin. She smiled a little. "Yeah... I guess I got my revenge."
Orson nodded. "A well deserved one too. Hmm. He seems rather lacking. Hang on." He walked to a trash can and pulled out two empty beer bottles. He placed one next to the Junior and another in his hand. "Let's see how the cops like a high schooler passed out on the sidewalk with two beers in his hand." He took one last look at his attacker and walked off with Arya.
They walked the remainder of the way in scilence. But when they reached Arya's home, she told him to close his eyes for a second. Orson asked why, but she just told him to do it. Orson did and felt her arms wrap around his shoulders. "I never really got to thank you for everything you do for me. I really appreciate it, Orson. I really do." She then proceded to kiss him on his bruised cheek. Orson opened his eyes and hugged her back. they embraced for 20 seconds before she turned and walked inside her home, glancing at him and smiling before going in.
For the remainder of the year, they still remained the greatest of friends. They built up a steady romantic intrest in each other, but started dating in sophomore year. Their friends of course threw a massive fit over the fact they had so many differences. But, they loved each other and that was all that mattered.
December 22nd, 1991
Orson stood erect with dozens of other recruits at the official Marine swearing in ceremony at the San Diego depot. He felt boiling in his tight, heavy dress uniform, but his pride out did his heat level. He would be shipped over to The Gulf in a few weeks, like Jack in Vietnam in 1967. He spotted Arya in the crowd who grinned and waved at him. He did the slightest grin and gave a little wave to his fiancee before getting back into his serious mode, lest his CO sees him. Arya blew a kiss and smiled. Orson had proposed to her the previous month and hoped to get married before he went to the Gulf. The ceremony ended and the couple went out to a local steakhouse. Jack was away at his post as Captain of his police precinct but managed to call Orson before the ceremony. Brigid was out on an administrator meeting all day at the University of California and hadn't been able to talk to Orson. Orson was due to be deployed on January 2nd, but thankfully managed to marry Arya on the 30th of December. They didn't really have time to get any of their plans done, as Orson was wrapped up in Marine related stuff for most of his remaining time before deployment. Orson was called to be deployed on the 2nd and after a very emotional embrace with Arya, he headed to The Gulf. At this point, he was assisting the armored brigades smash threw the poorly defended Iraqi positions and mop up resistance to the way into Kuwait. Arya called or wrote him almost every week, asking usual concerned wife stuff when it comes to soldiers; Are you feeling sick? Were you shot? Orson was forced to lie about his injuries somedays, once his foot was caught in a gernade blast that killed their squad leader. The blast barely touched Orson to be a crippling injury, but it put him out of action for a mere 2 days. Arya called him once as doctors pumped penicillin into his foot and Orson tried his best to listen to her while holding back an occasional yelp of pain.
Orson got back from the war after the victory on February 28th and finally got to go hiking in northern California, something Arya wanted to do since high school. After that, Orson wanted to follow in his father's footsteps and became a San Fransisco cop. This went well until October 14th 2001, when Orson was sent to catch a homeless, drug fueled rapist which had escaped custody. Arya had nearly become one of the sicko's victims when she took the subway home from her job as a Architect. The rapist was driven off by the sight of a police car who happened to be rounding a corner, which Arya hailed down and reported the Sicko. The cops gave chase, but he had escaped. He was collared eariler that day and Orson snuck a few blows to his head while no one was watching. He had some how escaped and Orson was the first one on his tail. Maybe the Captain shouldn't have let Orson go after him...
Orson had trapped the crook in a dead end alley and ordered him to surrender. The crook looked like he was going to... but pulled a homemade shank and rushed Orson. Orson shot him without even thinking they proceding to pump over 30 rounds into his corpse. When backup arrived, Orson calmly explained he had pulled a shank and had no intentsion to stop. The department wasn't angry, but the Sicko's family was. They sued the city for "Negligence." The city Lawyers tried their best, but only succeded in preventing fines and jail time. The city very reluctantly discharged Orson.
Orson found work in Corrections helped, by the fact the Police decided to fudge the official incident report on the shooting, but was called back to Marine service in April 2003. Iraq was being invaded and Orson was happy to help. Orson was there when Hussein's statue went down, when Hussein's corrupt regime crumbled and his loyal defenders dwindling. And he tagged along with the goup of soldiers who found the coward hiding in his "Spider Hole." Orson returned home with a Silver Star under his belt.
As he got off the plane and embraced Arya, he was approached by a middle aged man with a white bussiness suit and wispy blond hair. After waiting a bit, the man pulled Orson aside. "Hello, Mr. Ryan." He adressed him politely. "I am Simon Nelis. I am the head of Aurora Industries. We are a firm that conducts genetic and biological research to improve humanity." Orson nodded. "Okay, what do I have to do with this now?" he asked, puzzled.
"Well, Mr. Ryan, I want to ask you if I could get your assistance with a little project of mine? I know you are well reversed in combat and security tactics?" Orson shrugged. "Well, I don't know..." The man disregarded this and continued. "I am planning to build a city- not just any city! A city underwater. The government is backing me with this and several architectual and construction firms are also on board. This project is the result of a decades long obsession of mine- one for change and progress for the good of humanity! Mr. Ryan, please will you be my chief of security for my city? I hear your wife is an architect and has won several prestigious awards the field too! She will be of great help to my project!" Arya now had deep intrest in what he was talking about.
Orson liked where this was heading. But he needed to know one thing. "Mr. Nelis, this seems rather... Ambitious. Do you have any sort of backround ideas for this city?"
Nellis thought for a second. "I do in fact. I want my city to be named Imperium. And I do have a basis for this."
He looked right at Orson and said quietly "Have you ever heard of a city called Rapture?"
A little note and some other info.
This isn't the end of Orson's story, not by a long shot! In fact, it's just beginning.
What does Nelis plan to do with his city? How does he know rapture? How does ANYONE besides Jack and his family know Rapture?
Stay tuned, and before I go I just have a little comment to make...
Imperium was mankind's greatest dream. It turned into our worst nightmare.

Madonna steals parking with fake sign in New York
Madonna has landed in trouble for erecting fake parking signs in New York to nab space for her cars.
The 57-year-old singer angered neighbours on the Upper East Side of the city - where she owns a $40 million townhouse - by having large metal posts installed into the shrubbery beside the precious kerb space to unfairly claim three large spots for her Sports Utility Vehicles, according to TMZ.
The black and red signs were intended to scare off drivers desperately seeking space in the congested city - where parking is extremely limited - and state in bold: "Tenant Parking Only. Unauthorized vehicles will be towed away at vehicle owner's expense."
They were also accompanied by the words 'No Parking' embossed in cement on the pavement, and a yellow line on the kerb.
One neighbour uncovered her scheme, and they confronted a bodyguard standing beside her trio of cars and questioned the signage.
But the singer's aide reportedly replied: "We know the right people."
Not to be deterred, the neighbour contacted New York's Department of Transportation.
The agency visited the area yesterday (23.03.16) and told the 'Like a Virgin' singer's representatives to have the signs removed immediately as the singer - who is embroiled in a custody battle with ex-husband Guy Ritchie over their son Rocco, 15 - had no legal grounds to erect the signs, enforce a fine or deter other drivers from using the space.

"Listen, Fatman," the Chief said. "We've received a wail from a whale."
"What's that, Chief?" Fergus asked. "We may have a bad connection."
"A whale wailed."
"I think you're stuttering."
"I said a whale wailed for us!"
"Definitely stuttering, Chief! Just slow down and take the words one at a time."
"No, you pinheaded pig! I said a whale's in trouble! She wailed her emergency tale to us! We need you now!"
"I see. Don't worry, Chief! You called the right pig. It's Fatman to the rescue!"
