A painful accident befel Mrs. Gilbert Underbill, who lives on the Wilton road. She was going out to her chicken house when she slipped and fell, breaking her arm and dislocating one nf her fingers. Several of our IN orwalk farmers attended the meeting of the Greens Farm Farmer's Club, on Tuesday. The club is elated over the fact that the butter made at the Greens Farm Creamery took the first prize at Hartford recently. About thirty-five members of Pilgrim Council, with their wives and sweethearts, gave a surprise party to Councilor Walter H. Stafford, at his residence 011 Wilton avenue last evening.

John E. Lovel, the venerable retired schoolmaster, has been ill at his home in Waterbury with a bronchial trouble for several weeks, and at one time his condition "was considered critical. He is improving now, but his mind is left a trifle impaired. The Coroner's jury investigating the Fourth avenue tunnel disaster visited the scene of the accident, examined the workings of the signal system and heard testinony from railroad .employes about the wreck, yesterday. The house at the corner of Main and West Main streets, which Mr. Charles Seymour recently purchased for his parents, is finished and is now being-furnished. It is a very pretty, cosey looking place, with bay windows and a wide rounding piazza, and we are sure its owners will enjoy it to the full. The ladies of St. Paul's Guild, at their meeting yesterday, decided to give a reception to their friends after Easter. This is welcome news, as whatever the ladies of St. Paul's undertake is well done, and their friends will look forward with much pleasure to a pleasant entertainment. A Norwalk gentleman, while visiting an orange grove in Florida last winter asked the grover if he raised the russet orange. The man replied that northerners had the idea that russett-skinned oranges were a variety of the fruit, when as all raisers of oranges know, the russett is the work of an insect which eats the outer part of the skin, and tho eaten places dry and turn brown. . We undeastand that Mrs. Middle-brook is making ["preparations to join her daughter, Mrs. C. J. Betts, in Pueblo, where she will make her future home. Mr. Betts is interested in a mine in Arizona, and has to be there most of the time, thus leaving Mrs. Betts much alone, and it will undoubtedly be a great comfort to Mrs. Mid-dlebrook and her daughter that they can be together. It is interesting to know that the Bray ton Ives collection, now on exhibition at the American Art Rooms on 23d. street, New York, cost originally $603,000.- We have heard many inquiries made as to the reason it is to be sold. We understand that Mr. Ives has recently bought a new and very elegant house, and finds difficulty in giving up sufficient room to his , books and china. Word was sent to our Borough police last night, from South Norwalk, that a watch and chain and a sum of money was stolen from there. The thief was seen just prior to the Dan-bury train .going up at 20 minutes to 7, and as the Danbury police were at once wired by our Borough police, and a suspicious character answering the description of the suspected p arty was found on the train, and is now held, it is hoped the property may be recover*- ed. .. . As strange a freak of nature as the currant bush which grew on the elm tree on Main street, was to be seen last summer on Lewis street, where a huge sunflower was ''blooming alone" in the crotch of an elm tree. Why the elm should be selected in both cases and how it chanced at all is one of the things which no fellow can find out, but they "got there just the same," like the little creature spoken of in the lines beginning, the "skeeter," &c., is an indisputable fact. : ^ j Mr. Morris and the other executive officers whom the people have elected have offered to submit the questions at issue to the State courts. The republicans of the House of Representatives have declined to resort to any but unconstitutional methods.—[N. Y. World. We invite Connecticut people to read the above, and note the extent to which partisan comment can go. The facts are that the democrats reflate to send the case to the courts and the republicans are nrging that course. [Couraut. --1 Mrs. W. S. Hurd is visiting at Mrs. V/. S. Adams' on Orchard street.

That Mr. R. P. Beatty, formerly "of West avenue, has been in town for a few days.. That Rev. Mr? Watkins and Mrs. Watkins, are in town to-day, to look at their newr home. That the audacity of some folks of mushroom growth, and shoddy instincts, is at the least refreshing. That there-are days for trotting out ancestors with Colonial Dames and Sons of the Revolution, at the social bat. That if you want to be "in it," up to the neck, to use rather an expressive phrase, you must write Town on local letters. "They" say it is quite too utterly English, and it's use will show that you know what's what. That there is indignation and grief among the old residents of East avenue, over the cherished landmarks, the grand old trees that have stood for a century, and were planted by their fore-fathers, and tenderly cared for, that are now being swept away by rude hands, the only thought being they will serve for wood. That the coming spring is to be characterized by some of the most remarkable things in the way of wraps that ever have been seen. No. more plain black or dark blue or gray little coats, but yellow, if you please, the most brilliant steeped-in-sunshine yellow, or a Polish coat of bright scarlet, with a white vest and gold braid, with gold cords and buttons. And hussar eoats of bright blue, and short Spanish coats of pale gray cloth, lined and slashed with scarlet. Or the circular cavalier capes, reaching below the waist, very full and very straight, and gathered at the neck into a very high collar. These are only a few of the possibilities. That society is willing to go to church and confess itself "amiserable sinner,'' but there is a slight reaction against this depression, early hours and walks in the open air. soon tone up the weary brains and bodies. Then is begun a vigorous course of mental and moral improvement. As "the season" is devoted to pleasing of the senses, Lent is given over to the cultivation of the intellect and the soul. So the public are given lecturers and plays, but society has many forms of mental food in the shape of clubs. One of the most devoted is Grace Church Guild on every Wednesday afternoon during Lent is for the study of ecclesiastical history. The ladies of the Guild find it necessary to do much skimming of silver clasped bibles in order even to listen under-standingly to the subjects [discussed. The sedate game of whist serves for an excuse for social evenings, and card parties also serve to lighten the penitential gloom, and the unintellectual but maddening game of "Tiddlewinks" also finds advocates. With all these plans for time killing the forty days of Lenten sobriety pass quickly. "The season'' serves for the making of acquaintances, Lent for the making of friends.

Mr. Washington —Who cut down thus chei-ry tree ? >:yt • m mMSIS a "" XOlt WALK'S FAMILY HISTORY OF <;FX. WM. T. SHKKMAX. Local pride is justly taken in the fame of the late William T. Sherman, of the United States Army, and one of our analists, in response to our request, has contributed the following, among other facts in his possession, bearing upon the great soldier's ancestry: Upon General Sherman's fathers' side he, it would appear, descended from William Sherman, or Scherman, who according to Talcott, as verified in Rev. David Sherman's notes, settled in Massachusets soon after the lauding of the Pilgrims in 1620. Our old town has been honored with resident representatives of the two original New England branches of this distinguished family. Taylor and Roger Minot Sherman wore contemporary N or walk barristers. The former was the grandfather of Gen. Wm. T., and the Hon. John Sherman, and the latter, accepting good authority was a nephew of Hon. Roger Sherman, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Taylor Sherman's son, Charles Robert, the father of the General, wedded one of the daughters of our St. .Paul's parish. Mary Hoyt, the mother of Wm. T., the General and of John the statesman, and the sister of James I. Hoyt, who died many years since, and of the late Charles Hoyt, formerly of New York, but who subsequently purchased, ' and with his esteemed family occupied the old Timothy Merwin homestead on North avenue, was the fifth child of Isaac and Mary (Raymond) Hoyt, and Avas born on the feast of the Holy Innocent'^ at the close of the last century. She was of the earliest Norwalk blood, and the tracing of her descent, which in America first exhibits itself in Gov. Win-throp's colony, is interesting. Of the fourth generation from the maternal Connecticut founder of her family, she bore her foremother's name, Mary, daughter of the "well beloved" Thomas Betts, the planter. Her mothers maiden name was Mary Raymond, and it was probably through one of the best known St. Paul's church eighteenth century fathers that Mary Raymond, and perhaps her sisters, Elizabeth, Esther and Hannah's, churchly instincts were derived. Each of these sisters, General Sherman's great aunts, married prominent men. The first named was the wife of Dr. Uriah Rogers, Jr., and her honored grave is still well preserved in one of our cemeteries, albeit, its marble testimony is becoming obliterated. She was the aunt by marriage of the widely known Chancellor Kent. Esther's husband was a Congressman, and died in Washington. She resided, until about the time that her nephew and neice, General Sherman's father and mother, broke up their Norwalk home and departed in their ''Prairie Schooner" for Ohio, not far from the Main street Sherman house. Hannah, the last named sister, became the wife qf Capt. Lemuel Brooks, and lived about one mile south of her father's home in "Old Well." She was the aunt of the venerated Miss Mary Ann Miller of New Haven, who used to take great comfort in her visits to this town. General Sherman's grandparents occupied pew No. 80 in the post revolutionary church. Here, with Hezekiah Jarvis, and Hezekiah and Samuel Belden as neighbors, and with her uncle Brooks close by, the General's mother listened to the teachings of such men of God as were Henry Wliitlock and Dr. Bethel Jucld. In childhood she came with her parents from a distance to church, but later on she lived nearer by. Like many of the Fitch and Cannon, and other young people of the day, she married quite early, not a long time, presumably, after leaving the school of which she was a member, a school of considerable reputation at that- time, and which for years had been located in Harlem but was removed to Poughkeepsie. Following her marriage she left her native place to take up with her husband and first born their new home in the then far off west. Her family story and that of others of the dead Generals' ancestors will repay perusal. Our ancient town is an historical hive, and some of its fast crumbling records deserve to be rescued from the oblivion with which they seem threatened. The foregoing is published in the hope that additional facts pertaining to the New England pedigree of one of the grandest military geniuses of modern times may be brought to the surface and find a place in our archives. - T. ill. v.. A. XOVES. lrr: A large number of ladies and gentlemen were present as visitors, in the gymnasium, and witnessed the exercises of the class under the direction of instructor Manning last evening. It is hoped that many of the-people of Norwalk will avail themselves of this invitation, to visit the gymnasium on Wed ir.1V// JXUVOX'S It HIT 111)A 1'. Celebration at (ireens Faruis Crettuicri/. The Greens Farms Club held one of their very enjoyable Washington birthday meetings, in the Creamery Hall, Tuesday. This was the sixth annual of these meetings, and as stated by Mr. J. S. Jennings/ President of the club, that the thirtieth anniversary of the club was held a few weeks ago. Among those present were seen T. S. Gold, Secretary of the State Board of Agriculture, J. S. Kirkham, Treasurer of the same, E. S. Jenkins, State Botanist and Chemist, Dennis Fenn, Isaac C. Smith, of Milford, Edwin and James Hoyt, of New Canaan, also noted agriculturists, and dairymen of Greens Farms and Southport. The meeting was opened with an address of welcome by the President, followed by an interesting address by Wm. J. Jennings, a former president of the club. Subject : "The Influence of Culture on Soil and Crops," which pointed to the importance of thorough underdrainingofwet soils, and brought out much discussion. Mr. Gold spoke "at length, on the value of sheep on the farm. John. El wood gave some views on the same subject. Mr. Kirkham and Mr. Fenn urged the necessity of getting the outlets of drains very low. In compacting of soils, James Hoyt told of having pastured his rye in the fall with good results. On this subject Mr. Kirkham retreated some words of Horace Greeley, that if a man did not drain his farm, the farm would soon drain him. But Mr. Greeley found this rule reversed in the far West, where irrigation is the correct thing. There Horace found that if the farmer did not dam, he would soon be dammed. A paper was read by Dr. Jenkins, entitled, "Some Suggestion on the Creamery Question." The Dr. felt some hesitancy in giving any ideas pertaining to the subject, before patrons of a Creamery, which had just received the .first prize at the Dairyman's Convention at Hartford. The speaker gave some interesting figures regarding the best methods of determining the richness of cream, in butter fats, and found that the oil test, was by far the best manner of arriving at the value of cream. Henry Birge, Will. Burr and S. B. Sherwood, added to tlie interest of this subject, by giving their experience in feeding and caring for cows. The meeting then adjourned, to partake of a bountiful lunch, provided by the ladies of Greens Farms, after which President Jennings read the following toasts, which were responded to very pointedly, by various gentlemen, viz : "The Farmer in Politics," by Mr. Kirkman ; "The Connecticut Farmer," by Mr. Gold; "Our Farmer's Homes, God Bless Them," by Mr. Edwin Hoyt; "Our Wives, Where are They by Mr. Fenn : "What we Know, and What we Don't Know," by Dr. Jenkins ; "Go East Young Man, "by Mr. Smith ; "The Capacity of the Human Stomach," by Dr. Dunham. Space will not allow the giving of the responses in full, which were rich in feeling, mirth and jollity. At the afternoon session an. instructive paper on "The Horse," was read by Isaac C. Smith, of Milford, which opened a discussion at great length by Messrs. Kirkham, Fenn, James, Hoyt, Mr. Gold and others. - Yarious other questions were briefly discussed, viz : ' 'Is the spreading of manure broadcast on the fields in winter, wasteful or otherwise?" "Shall we plant our potatoes in hills or in drills?" "What capital should a farmer invest in machinery ?" "Does it pay better to feed hay than to sell it ?" "What drains would be best on the farm ?" "Can anybody present, give experience in raising Japanese buckwheat ?" After the' discussions were closed, Mr. Gold announced that the work of the State Board and Dairyman's Association would soon be materially assisted by the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale College. Secretary Sherwood thanked all for their presence, and was especially grateful to those who came in response to invitation by letter, to help the meeting along. Before the meeting, and during the intermission, the visitors were invited to inspect the various processes in the making of butter, which was going on in the lower part of this building, where all the best modern appliances and machinery for the same, could be seen at work. The out-put of the Creamery is 1,500 pounds per month, at present. ^ ; —More broken lots of shoes at A. S. Hoy t & Son's.

I spent a lot of today trying to figure out the suggested calorie input and output balance. I came across several sites giving some information but was never satisfied with what I found. This is what I know.
Calorie input & output:
The suggested minimum amount for women on calorie input is no lower than 1200 calories a day and 1800 for men. I spent some time today and found that I'm just barely hitting that 1800. This can be a positive and a negative. The positive is that I will see a quick result in fat loss but if I go too low than my body will search for those calories elsewhere in the body (muscles!). More on the negative is that while you have initial fat loss it will plateau rather quickly, you become fatigued, and the chances of binging are higher. No one needs binging when trying to achieve better health.
Your body needs a certain amount of calories in order to function well throughout the day. Eat several smaller meals and your body will take the food and use the calories for energy for the next couple of hours. That is called metabolism. That is the constant take and use that the body does. The general rule of thumb is that 3500 calories is the equivalent of 1 pound. If you were to cut your calorie intake by 500 calories a day ---- you may lose up to 1 pound a week. Add exercise to the equasion and you may shape up rather quickly.
I will be shooting for just under 2000 calories. I don't want to fall into the trap of trying to make it happen over night and starve myself from what my body needs.
Food intake:
1. 1 cup of coffee
2. 1 1/2 cup raisin bran cereal
3. 1 banana
4. 12 oz diet pepsi
5. Deli chicken sandwich (oven roasted) on wheat with cheese and mayo
6. 18 pretzels
7. Rice crispy treat
8. Four scrambled eggs
9. 2 1/2 slices of turkey bacon
10. Two slices of bread w/ blackberry jam
11. My yogurt - plain w/ blended banana, agave nectar
12. 60+ oz of water
- basketball ---- 2.01 miles ---- we won quite a few games tonight ( they are just full court pick up games).

Treadmill Desks Make Employees Better at Their Jobs (Eventually)
New research shows that treadmill desks improve employee performance and productivity -- after a short period of adjusting to walking and working at the same time.
Treadmill Desks Can Boost Productivity (If We Use Them the Right Way)
Treadmill desks have been touted as the answer to everything from inactivity-induced heart disease and diabetes to late-afternoon productivity dips. But is it really possible to exercise and do high-quality work at the same time?

Jordan: Strike by gas delivery workers averted

A strike that could have stopped fuel distribution in the [Jordanin] Kingdom has been avoided after the government and the Gas Station Owners Association (GSOA) agreed to a deal raising stations' royalties by 13-15 per cent.
GSOA President Fahed Al Fayez told The Jordan Times on Tuesday that the association and the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources had reached a last-minute agreement on Monday night to increase the royalties of gas cylinder distribution agencies and gas stations.
The deal was made one day ahead of a planned strike by gas distributors, who get JD0.97 per cylinder, according to Fayez, while the royalties of gas stations are 12 fils per litre.
Under the deal, royalties of cooking gas distributors will be around JD1.10 per cylinder, while those of gas stations will go up to over 13 fils per litre.
In March last year, gas stations threatened to stop ordering oil derivatives from the Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company due to a dispute with the fuel supplier over royalties, which pushed the government to raise them.
"What we demanded was higher than this percentage, but with the current economic conditions in the Kingdom what we obtained is positive," Fayez said, adding that the increase in royalties will not affect consumer prices.
The association had requested that the increase in royalties be achieved by reducing the price at which fuel derivatives and cooking gas cylinders are sold to distributors, he explained.
According to the GSOA president, there are 438 gas stations in the Kingdom and 952 agencies that distribute gas cylinders.

Now that's ace service: Andy Murray disguises himself as ice cream salesman at the tennis
HE may have just risen to world No.2 but tennis ace Andy Murray has proved he is still a man of the people.
The Scot disguised himself as an ice cream salesman in the US to prank fans.
Murray donned a wig, glasses and a backwards baseball cap as he served up treats to fans at the Cincinnati Masters in Ohio.
The 28-year-old posed for a selfie with one fan who could not believe her luck.
Julie Boniface wrote: "When @andy_murray is disguised and serves ice cream for you then takes off his wig to take a pic with you."
She also posted a string of heart emojis.
When @andy_murray is disguised and serves ice cream for you then takes off his wig to take a pic with you ������������������ pic.twitter.com/w4qGZXqEz0— Julie Boniface (@julie_boniface) August 18, 2015
"Andy is in Cincinnati for the tournament and was just larking about in disguise to see if people could recognise him"A spokesman
"Andy is in Cincinnati for the tournament and was just larking about in disguise to see if people could recognise him," a spokesman said.
Murray recently ended his eight-match losing streak against Novak Djokovic by overcoming the world No.1 in Toronto, Canada.
The Scot, who recently announced he and his wife Kim Sears were expecting their first child, will be hoping to continue his good form ahead of the US Open, the final grand slam of the season.
Former British No.1 Tim Henman has said he expects the pair to adapt to the challenges of becoming parents.
"It's very exciting. As a dad of three, I know it's an amazing time for them. It's exciting news for Andy and Kim," said Henman, who became a father for the third time shortly before retiring in September 2007.
"It's another story. There's a lot of speculation as to how that impacts your career on top of how much has married life impacted his career.
Obviously he's played very well since getting married.
"It's a big change and I'm sure it's another way of keeping things in perspective for Andy. I'm sure both Kim and Andy will adapt to a baby brilliantly.
"It probably means a couple of extra rooms in the hotels and stuff and logistically you need to manage that.
"But he's got good people around him and I'm sure
they will both love it."

Lexus thinks that 2013 will be even better than 2012, which had its sales grow 31% compared to the previous year. The luxury car manufacturer will be showing off a heavily modified lineup and special vehicles at the Chicago Auto Show to suggest a new design direction. During the past year, Lexus presented new versions of the ES and LS sedans, and RX and LX sport utility vehicles that all have the new signature spindle grille.
All of these vehicles will be seen at the Chicago show. They will be displayed beside the all-new 2014 Lexus IS F Sport, which recently had its global debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The IS now comes with excellent exterior and interior styling as well as significantly improved driving dynamics. Another vehicle that will be seen in Chicago is the LFA, Lexus' super car.
The LFA Nurburgring Edition is powered by a 4.8 liter, V10 engine that delivers 562hp. Since the LFA came to the market almost a couple of years ago, the LFA had swiftly gotten a reputation as one of the greatest performance models in the world. In addition, the LF-LC, the winner of the Best Concept award at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show, based on public polling, will also appear in Chicago.
But then, it won't be the ruby red version they witnessed last year. Rather, this vehicle is the LF-LC Blue Concept, which made its debut last October at the Australian Motor Show. This is the second iteration of the LF-LC Concept that came to Chicago last year. Lexus will also showing off other specially-built products such as an LS modified for the SEMA Show and the orange and black Lexus IS F CCS-R, a one-off IS F which dominated last summer at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.

It's been a hell of time as of late. I've been away far too long. Some of you have noticed my steady return. Between now and my last news post I had been slowly working on buying myself a house. I am now a proud homeowner. I will have pictures at some point to show the entire house, or maybe a video if I can figure out how the video camera on my phone works.
I moved in back in June and have been living here since then. It's a nice place, although I have been experiencing troubles with the toilets clogging and overflowing and plunging them does little. Anybody know a fix for that right off the bat, it would be greatly appreciated (shit less is not a viable option).
So I'm slowly getting back into the swing of things and have been planning quite a bit of content. For one thing The Interviewer will be resuming, a new interview every Wednesday. Picking back up next week with an Interview with @Eggy. I'll also be posting stuff to my @Dohn page, so if you're not following that, then please do.
I wanted to ask a serious question to those who decided to follow me (why I dunno). I have thought about really outputting my writing more and I have thought about starting a Patreon. There are two things holding me back on this though. One is I don't know much about Patreon. I know it's open for creators, but is there a fee that you have to pay? Is there a cut Patreon gets? How would it work with my bank account overall? Those questions. Number Two is I don't want to come off as though I'm E-Begging. I'm not. If people enjoy my work, want to pay towards it, and hopefully I can use that money to expand. I have a job at a deli as a Manager. That position is what helped me get the house I'm currently living in, so I'm doing alright for myself financially, so I don't need a Patreon.
What are your thoughts?
Hello once again. Well I'm back once again, ready to take Newgrounds by storm. I've been going through a lot lately, however things are getting back on track. For those who I have promised interviews to, I still intend to do them. I've already done my research for all of them, I just have to get the questions written, which has been backlogged due to complications with life... and procrastination. Like mixing beer with wine, just don't do it.
So to, @ForgottenDawn and @RealFaction, yes, the Interview with The Underground Collective is still going to happen. Also to @Eggy, @Idiot-Finder, @BillPremo, @iamDeadHead, and @krangGAMES, I still intend to do interviews with you as well. If all of you are still on board.
Also to @Jackho, I'm still planning on doing the Somber Pensive interview with you as well. A lot has been backlogged for quite sometime now. I'm also working on something new on my other profile called Dohn's Desk. Which will be weekly posts about a topic of interest to me, shared with the rest of you. So if you like to read what I write then that might interest you.
Other than that, I am looking to do Weekly Updates on this page as well to keep y'all posted on what's going on.
That's about it. How y'all been doing?
Sorry there have been more delays. There has been a shift at work and a lot of my time has been dedicated to that. One of our managers found a better job and she left so I had to fill the void left behind until a manager from a different store came back and got back into a rhythm. Now he is managing two stores and I am still managing the store I'm working at. Usually I have that under control, however something else came up.
We had a manager at one of our stores. I learned about two months ago that he and I were related, we were cousins! That became an exciting time for me to have another family member. One who doesn't treat me like shit and isn't an asshole. We knew who we were before, but we learned we are cousins! However about two weeks ago, he committed suicide. Not only did I need to step up at work and be strong when I clearly wasn't able to, I had to hide my feelings, and just not feel anything.
I wasn't able to do it. I broke down one Saturday night at work. I went out back and just cried. I finally couldn't take it, so I called my best friend who was out in Texas and told him to just talk, just talk, say anything. I just wanted to hear his voice and bring me some form of relief. He did, and it was something I needed.
Work has been needing adjustments to it. Thankfully though we are back on a "normal" level of productivity, so I should be getting back to work on here soon. Thanks to all who I have had delayed obligations towards.
Ten Years.
A Decade.
A lot can happen within ten years time. Throughout the years I have changed as a person, seen beautiful animation, heard music that melted my ears, read stories that engaged me into the waking night, met some of the most interesting people in the world, saw sights that I had never saw or would even imagine.
I came to this website through a site called VGDC, a.k.a. Video Game Directors Cut. There was a series called Rise of the Mushroom Kingdom by Randy Solem. It was split into four parts and the final part could only be seen on this website called Newgrounds. After I finished watching Part 4, I decided to see what else was on this site. I came across this... the first true flash movie I ever saw on Newgrounds.
I had no idea what drew me to it. I knew this was an anime, but I didn't know which one and I didn't care. The only anime I was watching at the time was Cowboy Bebop. I knew who Weird Al Yankovic was so this movie delighted me on so many strange levels. After that, I signed up for an account and this movie was the first I ever reviewed. Do not go read that review... it is unbearably cringeworthy. A lot of my old stuff was.
I was enjoying the different flash movies and flash games. Hell on the front page the first game I ever played on Newgrounds was Super Smash Flash.
Seeing what flash could do it absolutely blew my mind! Here was Super Smash Bros. Melee made in Adobe Flash, with new characters added to it as well! This site was amazing! So many games and movies to watch it was incredible!
Then I discovered one of my true loves that I still visit to this day, and that was the Audio Portal. One thing I am is an ecclectic music snob from top to bottom. I will listen to any genre of music, but I tend to have a picky taste in my music. I jumped over to the Classical music section and the first song I ever heard would become one of my first friends on Newgrounds.
It was Selcuk Bor. Some of you here may know him better as one of his handle @MaestoRage or as @MaestroSorrow the name that gave me this beautiful and impactful song. _-=[The Maestro's Requiem]=-_.
This was such an awesome song. I had to listen to more. I started to dip into video game music and I ended up in some strange places. One song was entitled Hychapte and it was by this bizarre individual named Doki who I would later know his name as David Firth, the creator of Salad Fingers.
Now Salad Fingers... there is one creature that I learned broke the barriers of Newgrounds and became this huge thing all over the Internet. Therefore I also learned that Newgrounds was a site that could build creators up and their creations could spread like wildfire across the Internet. Needless to say I became obsessed.
It wasn't long until I started browsing the forums here on Newgrounds. Which by the way for those too young to know what Newgrounds used to look like... here's a glimpse into the past.
Not exactly pretty. It was a place where everybody was hopping though. A fun place to be. With so much going on in it every day! I still remember a lot of people who used to be on here, but aren't anymore. The old users who would bash me for being an asshole teenage user who signed up in 2006... which they were right. I was a stupid little teenager, I thought I knew more about the world than everyone else here did, I had an ego, I had pride, and I was wrong.
Some of you are probably looking at my username and thinking a lot right now. Makes sense, don't blame you. However when I signed up for Newgrounds my original username was Wilber7. Back then you didn't need permission from an Administrator or Supporter Status to change your username. You could just change it, whenever you wanted to. However when the 2007 redesign was being worked on, the username lockdown was announced. I wanted a username that looked and sounded better, so I picked BlueYoshi2. I later on didn't like having a number in my username, so I chose TheGreatOne. It was already taken though, so with a dash here and a dash there it became The-Great-One. From now on, if I hear someone ask me the story about my username, I'm just going to send them to this post, because this is the most complete this story has ever been and it is exhausting having to type it out each and everytime, moving on...
Anyways, as I stated I was a dumbass teenager. I loved video game parodies and sprite movies. There was a thread called SPA - Sprite protection agency. In this thread our goal was to protect sprite movies from negative criticism. I blindly followed. I was a joiner. That is when I met a man by the name of Nathan Malone. Some of you know him better as @ZekeySpaceyLizard. He knew his stuff and he kicked my dumbass teenager ass up one side of the forum and back down again. Funny thing is that everything he was saying was correct. I was being stupid. I didn't know what I was talking about. And this club that I joined had no real power to do anything. It was being trolled by The Star Syndicate heavily and there was nothing that could be done. Nothing. Zekey later banned me from sending me PM's, I understood why. I ended up making an alternate account to apologize for my behavior and he accepted it and allowed me to send PM's to him again. I wanted to do this, because at that time I wanted to interview him. We'll get to that shortly though.
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Looking at the image above. I remember so many of those names and I don't even see most of them on the forums or even just lurking the site period much anymore. So many people that I had so much fun on this site with. When I was putting this together I decided to go back through a lot of these names and take a bit of a nostalgia trip. While on the way I ended up going back to my first popular thread on Newgrounds.
This thread pretty much summed up all I needed to know about the General Forum. It was a stupid place where people could gather and discuss stupid stuff with one another. True we could have some intellectual conversations, even though that was mostly saved for the Politics Forum, the General Forum was a stupid place to have fun. Get a little rowdy though and either @bigbadron, @EyeLovePoozy, or @STEM would not be far away with their Banhammers ready to dull out the punishment.
I was surprised that this thread lasted as long as it did. It is still unlocked to this day. This thread grew and grew in popularity. Why I have no idea. It is a nice little time capsule to how the Internet was (and I use this term begrudgingly) back in the day. I honestly thought that the thread was going to get deleted, I was going to get banned, or both. According to my recollection (which if a forum moderator would like to double check I'll edit this in post) I was never banned by bigbadron.
I bring up my time on the forums, because it was a factor in changing me as a person. I was born and raised in South Carolina, as a Christian Conservative Republican. Through and through. I was questioning my sexuality at a young age and around the age of 14 I accepted that I was bisexual. This although sent me into a turmoil that almost lead to suicide. When I joined Newgrounds, I heard about people who were gay, bisexual, lesbian, and even transgender. I heard about atheists, agnostics, non-religious people. I didn't make sense to me. Newgrounds helped open my mind.
It was at this point that I came out onto Newgrounds as an open bisexual. The responses I got were all wonderful. I did not need to be ashamed of who I was, where I came from, or how I felt and thought. Granted we're all complete assholes to one another on this site, but at the end of the day, we all look out for one another on this beautiful site. I wanted to find some way to contribute to Newgrounds. Anyway I could do so would be great.
Interviews with Famous Newgrounds Artists & Members
circa 2007, 2009-2016
I was always a fan of the Newgrounds Mag. It was a special side site to Newgrounds where you could watch movies and play games in their demo and alpha states. What I loved about it though were the interviews done with famous Newgrounds people. When the Newgrounds Mag ceased, the interviews stopped. I was disappointed. I remember though that regular members here on Newgrounds conducted those interviews. I thought if they could do it, then why not I?
Well I learned that it was a lot harder than it looked. I started The Interviewer back in 2007, posting the interviews to my own profile. It was a failure though. I didn't like it so I decided to scrap it. I didn't take another shot at it until 2009 mainly due to inspiration from a TV show called Inside the Actors Studio. That TV show's first guest was Alec Baldwin, a recognizable name, so I thought my first guest should be just as recognizable and give some credibility to whatever the hell it was I was doing at this time. My first interview being the Interview with Tom Fulp.
February 10th, 2009 would be the beginning of a journey that I have been on for over seven years. Now look back, a dumbass teenager, turning into a dumbass adult, learning about life, bit of a loser, has lost all fucks known to man. Yet here I am intimidated as hell to send this PM out. I knew who Tom Fulp was, he was the creator and CEO of Newgrounds. He was worshipped like a god! He must get 100's, no 1,000's of PMs a day! There is absolutely no way that he is going to read mine. Even if he did, I'm sure he has no time to answer it, and even if he did he is probably too busy to even respond! Well he responded. I'm glad he did to. That was the start. Next I decided to interview EyeLovePoozy, a moderator who a lot of people wanted to know more about. Next I apologized and interviewed ZekeySpaceyLizard. Then I got to five interviews, which became ten, then became fifteen, then fourty, then fifty, then eighty-five, then one-hundred. It was insane! I was getting requests for more and more. How crazy did it get?
The next friend in this story goes by the name @deathink. If you don't know who deathink is. He created Pico Radio, the first way to listen to music from the Audio Portal like a radio. It was awesome. He sent me a message out of the blue one day telling me that he had a surprise for me. A couple of weeks to a month later I got a message asking for some input on this project. It would later become The Interview Codex.
I just want to take a small moment and talk about how crazy this is. Yes throughout my life writing has been a passion of mine, specifically creative writing. Despite this though, I never cared about journalism as writing for myself. I just started doing interviews because it was fun. Yes it still is fun, but it has slowly overtime become a lot more work. People ate this up like crazy despite me not knowing a single thing about journalism or interviewing other people. Apparently I got good at it overtime, because deathink is a fan of The Interviewer.
Let's take a step back. deathink. The user that Tom Fulp thinks is one of the best damn users on here. Who has his on emoji set for you to use on the forums. Who Tom praises any chance he can get. Who Tom recommended to me to interview and who just sat on my list for years, is a fan of my work. Joygasm like you wouldn't believe... happiness everywhere it was everywhere, the walls, my chair, it was just... TMI... moving on.
So yeah deathink loved The Interviewer and he made this codex so people could read the interviews in flash. He even used the theme song that I was given permission to use by @sorohanro. Since I knew nothing about making stuff in flash, he even set it up to where I could add new interviews to it. It was unbelievable.
I never thought people would get this absorbed in interviews. Tom really liked them, because for awhile they were main features on the front page of Newgrounds before the next redesign. I became the first writer to have their work featured on the front page of Newgrounds. That is amazing. And I didn't deserve any damn bit of it.
Why? Because The Interviewer was made to shine light on others. That's what I wanted out of it. For new artists, musicians, animators, writers, fans, to get a glimpse of their favorite creators. To learn from what they have done. To not make the same mistakes they did and even if so to show that it's okay to make mistakes. There will be a time for glory yes, but as long as you put in the hard work you will grow and flourish. That's what Newgrounds is about. And that's what I wanted to show with The Interviewer. Hopefully I succeeded.
Before I end this trip down memory lane I want to talk about friends. Complete strangers from a different part of the globe who have all been there for my ups and downs. From old friends to new friends. People from different stretches of the world that are all united for a love of creativity, inspiration, and a little bit of immaturity.
@ZJ is my Newgrounds best friend. We actually signed up around the same time. We are kindered spirits of this site in a way. He too was just as much a dumbass teenager as I was when he signed up. Now he's one of the most respected users on this site.
@MaestroRage was one of my first friends on the site. He did a lot to help me out on the site. Gave me some wisdom, even though I only took in half of it at the time. I will always remember him as a great friend.
@Bosa is one friend that I don't talk to as much as I did. Although whenever we do talk to one another it's like we just talked to each other yesterday. Then again we're both Southern boys, so it's probably just in our nature to be able to pick up where we left off with ease.
@Jazza is one person I loved talking to. I honestly didn't know how famous he was on this site at the time I was talking to him. He became one of my biggest requests for The Interviewer. That's when I understood why.
@tigerkitty is an incredibly kind woman who was always there to help me if I needed her. One of my favorite moderators. I imagine I see the kitty side to her. Would not want to unleash the tiger part.
@NekoMika I knew as a man named SCTE3. I learned though that was not the case. For one human being was trapped in a world she didn't belong in. She has done interviews for The Interviewer in the past and I've even interviewed her myself. I felt like we grew up in similar househoulds, hers more extreme than mine, but we walked out different doors.
@Troisnyx has a story behind her. One I'm glad that I didn't have to live and others here who love the freedoms they have with their creative works should not take them for granted. She is a very kind person who I got to know more and is one who I can call friend.
@Wegra is... where do I begin. Holy shit, this guy makes me laugh, he is one of the funniest people I know on this site and if you're one of the lucky few, know him outside of this site.
@Ryanson is a face I don't see much of anymore. Saddens me. I enjoyed talking with him and working on The Interviewer with him.
@Ragnarokia is one of my gay friends. He is the one who introduced me to My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. He is also in a relationship with another friend of mine.
@Rad used go by TheRadicalOne. We were Newgrounds brothers in a way. I was Great, he was Radical, it's a bit complicated. We talked seldomly, but when we did it was always fun. Didn't know he was with Ragnarokia though. Happy for both of them.
@TomFulp is the one who gave me everything on this site. Without this beautiful site, I would not be the person I am today. I will gladly call him friend, even if we're not close enough for that title. I don't know who I would have been or what state I would have been in if it were not for this site.
And thus I close this off in a familiar fashion by saying to all of you. Thank you for the memories these past ten years. It has been a wonderful decade. Although there is much in my life that I would go back in time and change if I could. The one thing I never would have changed, was the experiences I have had with this place. I would love to be here for ten more years and thus I can deliver to you an overblown wall of text for being on Newgrounds twenty years. Hopefully this site will still be here and Tom will be running it and still be alive to see it. If I were a millionaire I would give as much money as I could to keep this place alive forever. This has been a wonderful place to grow up.
Thank You.
So I work at a deli restaurant. I am now a manager there so go me. That is what has been eating up my time. Working in the store and resting at home. One night while I was working though, it was 80 degrees in the store, I was having trouble breathing, and I collapsed with my chest hurting, my left arm and right hand both went numb and I was in a lot of pain.
Went to the hospital, they ran some tests to see how I was doing. Things didn't look good at first, but they did get better. I went to a cardiologist and everything checks out okay. I still hurt from time to time when breathing, but it's not that bad. That would explain my absence.
I'm alright though, and looking to get back to work on Newgrounds. With that said, how have all of you been?
For those who haven't seen a new interview and to those I haven't sent questions to yet, I apologize. I've been on break getting things done with my job outside of Newgrounds. Don't despair though, because I'm looking to focus more attention here now because I'm caught up with my job stuff.
Also for those who read my last post, I have chosen a new person to take over The Interviewer after I am done. Her name is @Little-Kinky. I will be showing her how I do these within the weeks to come and I'll also be cleaning up The Interviewer more.
Also the next interview posted will be with @chluaid. You may know him as Adam Phillips.
That's all I got. Thanks for your patience.
I've been looking for some advice lately and I'm a bit conflicted. I know I'm gonna sound like a broken record and some of you reading the title of this news post are probably saying to yourselves "he's talking about this -- AGAIN?" and yes I am and it will be the last time... until the actual end of The Interviewer, I promise. Yes though it is coming to end... maybe.
I'm wondering if it should keep going though. Also no, I'm not doing what Doug Walker did and say I'm ending something and then I'm not, at the 200th Interview I will stop doing The Interviewer... does that mean it has to end though?
I'm toying around the idea of possibly letting someone else carry on The Interviewer in my place. Someone to keep it going strong into the future. We have so many more creative people sharing their works here that I haven't gotten to yet and probably won't get to.
The problem is, who should do it? Can I trust them to keep the page safe and keep it neat? Can I trust them to be nice to the readers and to the people they interview? What all will they need to know? What all do I need to teach them? Will they be able to handle a weekly update? Will people like the new person? These are questions that rattle around in my mind.
There are some things that need to be done and criteria that need to be met if I go through with this no exceptions.
1) All Interviews must be cleaned up and look nice with this new redesign. Some are already like this, others need to be fixed.
2) Whoever takes this position has to be a writer, NO EXCEPTIONS. This was started by a writer and will remain with a writer.
3) Should the person taking over operate from the original account or have a new account to work from?
I'll still be interviewing people on my Dohn page, however those interviews are different from what I do on The Interviewer, so it shouldn't be a detraction from it.
I'm looking for some advice on all of this and are wondering what all of you think about this.
Hello once again. I am back on Newgrounds at full force now. I've been getting better and as I was I decided to take a small break from Newgrounds only really checking in to talk in the Politics forum. I've been evaluating my life and improving it in small steps and really knuckling down both my outside work and my Newgrounds work.
Mainly thanks to a book called Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity. I will note that I bought the 2001 first edition. The one I am linking to is the new 2015 second edition. It has helped me branch everything out of my mind so I can focus more time to myself and well, be stress free. As I am posting this I am listening to a Hello Internet podcast.
You can expect more interviews for The Interviewer, more posts to my Dohn page, as well as reviewing more movies, games, music, and hopefully art. Since I have been lacking on my reviews lately, the one reason why I decided to make an account on Newgrounds in the first place.
To those still following me, The Interviewer, and newcomers to Dohn, thank you all for being so patient as well as the kind words I have received as well. You are all more amazing than you know.
Let's talk about the Academy Awards for a moment since racism is yet again being brought up in a place where there is none.
First thing's first. Yes there needs to be a change in the members of the Academy. The Academy is a group of people who vote in the awards for each category, if you're an actor you vote in the acting categories, if you're a director you vote in the directing categories. However every member of the academy gets to vote on Best Picture.
With that said we have had African-American nominees and winners in the past for Best Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Director and many Best Picture winners and nominees featuring African-Americans. For the 2011 Oscars we had Octavia Spencer winning Best Supporting Actress, along with Viola Davis being nominated for Best Actress. For the 2013 Oscars we had Lupita Nyong'o winning Best Supporting Actress, Chiwetel Ejiofor being nominated for Best Actor, and 12 Years a Slave winning Best Picture. Last year for the 2014 Oscars we had Common and John Legend winning for Best Original Song.
The fact that we have not had any African-American's nominated for Best Actor, Best Actress, or Best Director or any category really is not the problem here. The members of the Academy are not racist. This is not the problem though.
The Academy does need to be more diverse in its members though. Most of the Academy is comprised of old white men. Now this isn't racist, it's just an oversight if anything. During the 70's the Academy was bringing in young people to give a fresh perspective on film. We need to do the same again and think for culturally. Not just African-Americans, but China, France, Japan, Asia, Africa, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Israel, all of these places that have different views on film. They need to be brought into this spectrum.
I will say this though, even if you diversify the Academy, you could still expect to see just white people nominated for a particular category. I hear people saying that because there are no African-American nominees that the Oscars is racist. Come on... even if they were just shoehorned in (which is wrong) simply to be a nominee, if they lost then the Oscars would still be racist in these people's minds. When it isn't racist.
We need to stop trying to shoehorn racism into something that isn't. Instead of making a statement, ask why. Questions push us further than outbursts. Which is something that film is very good at doing.
I am eager to see the Academy Awards this year and to all of these people whining about racism being a part of the Oscars. You have just given Chris Rock a lot of material to work with.
I want to thank those who sent kind words to me for my last post. I've been doing better, thanks to the people of this site who help me escape and getaway from my own mind. I've been feeling better. There are more good days than bad now and I'm slowly getting back into work.
There will be three new interviews coming up, one that's already up. The Interview with supergandhi64 has been posted, it is yours to enjoy. I will also be posting interviews with @Troisnyx and @WooleyWorld in the next two days. Also I knew I said I was going to have only special cases, but that was due to problems I've been having. We're going for the 200th Interview and that will most likely be as far as I take it. With that being said, I'm also running out of ideas for The Interviewer so I need suggestions, any suggestions, ALL SUGGESTIONS!
Also I'm going to have an interview with @TomFulp going up. Not on The Interviewer though. It will be on my Dohn account. I've also got a few ideas for it as well and am open to some suggestions.
Thanks for keeping up, chances are you're doing a better job at keeping pace than I am.

Returning frequently to the theme of memory, Kumar (English, Penn State U.) draws on his own experience as an immigrant from India to the US in this collection of essays, poems, interviews, and literary criticism on an array of Indian writers, some western writers on India, and all manner of everyday realities. The three cities of the title refer to the main centers of the Indian diaspora. Distributed by Taylor & Francis. Annotation c. Book News, Inc.,Portland, OR
This is a work of luminous imagination and tenderness. Amitava Kumar is a startling story teller: that rare cultural critic who writes from and for the heart. When last did any academic so successfully harmonize a love of language with a passion for ideas? This book will surely establish Kumar as one of the most eloquent, searching public intellectuals of his generation.

Still purrs like a kitten @ 208,500 miles!
By volvoinme on
Vehicle1997 Volvo 850 GLT Turbo 4dr Sedan
ReviewThis is by far the best used car I have ever purchased! Considering it had 160,000 on it when I bought it. It runs great, gets decent gas mileage and has only died on me once because the fuel pump quit! (Was the original) All I have to say is volvo might be an expensive car to buy, but like the old saying goes "You get what you pay for" I will buy another volvo, as this one is not my last!
Best FeaturesI think the whole car is my favorite feature! It still looks great, gives a nice ride and everything works! Way to go volvo!!
Worst FeaturesThe only issue I have had with the car is the dashboard seems to be loose and rattles alot over bumps, but considering that the car is 14 years old, I think I can live with it!

An incomplete inventory of the language of Moby-Dick includes "nautical, biblical, Homeric, Shakespearean, Miltonic, cetological, alliterative, fanciful, colloquial, archaic and unceasingly allusive". Melville can stretch grammar, quote a range of well-known or obscure sources, or swing from calm prose to high rhetoric, technical exposition, seaman's slang, mystic speculation, or wild prophetic archaism.[5]
The superabundant vocabulary of the work can be broken down into strategies used individually and in combination. First, the original modification of words as "Leviathanism"[23] and the exaggerated repetition of modified words, as in the series "pitiable", "pity", "pitied" and "piteous" (Ch. 81, "The Pequod Meets the Virgin"),[24] Second, the use of existing words in new ways, as when the whale "heaps" and "tasks."[23] Third, words lifted from specialized fields, as "fossiliferous".[23] Fourth, the use of unusual adjective-noun combinations, as in "concentrating brow" and "immaculate manliness" (Ch. 26, "Knights and Squires").[25] Fifth, using the participial modifier to emphasize and to reinforce the already established expectations of the reader, as the words "preluding" and "foreshadowing" ("so still and subdued and yet somehow preluding was all the scene...", "In this foreshadowing interval...").[24]
Characteristic stylistic elements of another kind are the echoes and overtones.[26] Responsible for this are both Melville's imitation of certain distinct styles and his habitual use of sources to shape his own work. His three most important sources, in order, are the Bible, Shakespeare, and Milton.[27]
The elaborate use of the Homeric simile may not have been learned from Homer himself, yet Matthiessen finds the writing "more consistently alive" on the Homeric than on the Shakespearean level. Especially during the final chase the "controlled accumulation" of such similes emphasizes Ahab's hubris through a succession of land-images, for instance: "The ship tore on; leaving such a furrow in the sea as when a cannon-ball, missent, becomes a ploughshare and turns up the level field" ("The Chase - Second Day," Ch. 134).[28] One paragraph-long simile describes how the thirty men of the crew became a single unit:
For as the one ship that held them all; though it was put together of all contrasting things--oak, and maple, and pine wood; iron, and pitch, and hemp--yet all these ran into each other in the one concrete hull, which shot on its way, both balanced and directed by the long central keel; even so, all the individualities of the crew, this man's valor, that man's fear; guilt and guiltiness, all varieties were welded into oneness, and were all directed to that fatal goal which Ahab their one lord and keel did point to. ("The Chase - Second Day," Ch. 134).
The final phrase fuses the two halves of the comparison, the men become identical with the ship, which follows Ahab's direction. The concentration only gives way to more imagery, with the "mastheads, like the tops of tall palms, were outspreadingly tufted with arms and legs." All these images contribute their "startling energy" to the advance of the narrative. When the boats are lowered, the imagery serves to dwarf everything but Ahab's will in the presence of Moby Dick.[29] These similes, with their astonishing "imaginative abundance," are not only invaluable in creating the dramatic movement, Matthiessen observes: "They are no less notable for breadth; and the more sustained among them, for an heroic dignity."[30]
Assimilation of Shakespeare
The language of Shakespeare went "far beyond all other influences" upon the book, in that it made Melville discover his own full strength "through the challenge of the most abundant imagination in history."[31] Especially the influence of King Lear and Macbeth has attracted scholarly attention.[32] On almost every page debts to Shakespeare can be discovered, whether hard or easy to recognize. The "mere sounds, full of Leviathanism, but signifying nothing" at the end of "Cetology" (Ch.32) echoes the famous phrase in Macbeth: "Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."[33] Ahab's first extended speech to the crew, in the "Quarter-Deck" (Ch.36), is "virtually blank verse, and can be printed as such":
But look ye, Starbuck, what is said in heat,
That thing unsays itself. There are men From whom warm words are small indignity. I mean not to incense thee. Let it go. Look! see yonder Turkish cheeks of spotted tawn-- Living, breathing pictures painted by the sun. The pagan leopards--the unrecking and Unworshipping things, that live; and seek and giveNo reason for the torrid life they feel![34]
Most importantly, through Shakespeare Melville infused Moby-Dick with a power of expression he had not previously possessed.[35] Reading Shakespeare had been "a catalytic agent" for Melville, one that transformed his writing "from limited reporting to the expression of profound natural forces."[36] The extent to which Melville was in full possession of his powers can be demonstrated through the description of Ahab, which ends in language "that suggests Shakespeare's but is not an imitation of it: 'Oh, Ahab! what shall be grand in thee, it must needs be plucked from the skies and dived for in the deep, and featured in the unbodied air!' The imaginative richness of the final phrase seems particularly Shakespearean, "but its two key words appear only once each in the plays...and to neither of these usages is Melville indebted for his fresh combination."[37] Melville's assimilation of Shakespeare gave Moby-Dick "a kind of diction that depended upon no source", and that could convey something "almost superhuman or inhuman, bigger than life." The prose is not based on anybody else's verse but on "a sense of speech rhythm."[38]
In addition to this sense of rhythm, Melville acquired verbal resources which show that he "now mastered Shakespeare's mature secret of how to make language itself dramatic." He had learned three essential things:
- To rely on verbs of action, "which lend their dynamic pressure to both movement and meaning." The effective tension caused by the contrast of "thou launchest navies of full-freighted worlds" and "there's that in here that still remains indifferent" in "The Candles" (Ch. 119) makes the last clause lead to a "compulsion to strike the breast" , which suggests "how thoroughly the drama has come to inhere in the words;"[39]
- The Shakespearean energy of verbal compounds was not lost on him ("full-freighted");
- And, finally, Melville learned how to handle "the quickened sense of life that comes from making one part of speech act as another - for example, 'earthquake' as an adjective, or the coining of 'placeless,' an adjective from a noun."[40]

Another brand new advanced Houdini video from cmiVFX! We've brought back another one of your favorite mentors, Mehdi Salehi. This time we will show you how Houdini can be used for developing a sand solver. This tutorial does not use the ?Grain Solver? tool which is available in Houdini 14. Instead we will develop a new tool based on ?Flip Object? to simulate sand so Houdini 13 users can also follow this tutorial. By developing and using this solver based on Flip object, you can take advantage of flip simulation speed and you will also have various parameters available so you can control the behavior of flip object and achieve the desired results in a reasonable simulation time. Moreover, in this training video we will show you an excellent method that can be used to turn a low-resolution simulation into high-resolution simulation which will also speed up your workflow. You also can use this method for other simulations like ?POP simulations? to convert your low-resolution simulation to high-resolution simulation. All this and more is included in this video. Enjoy!

I was going through photos tonight. Going through the box of mementos from mom's death and funeral. The newspaper from the day she died and her obituary on Christmas day. All the cards from loved ones. The bulletin from her funeral. My letter to her. The pink pants she wore to all my children's births.
Suddenly, I had a realization. "Steve, what day is it today?" And without having realized it, I was doing all this on the eve of her death-day. I knew it was coming, but I'm bad about dates...and that wasn't what prompted my going through the box. I was just feeling sentimental, and wanting to sift through some memories.
Tomorrow, she will have been gone for 2 years. Her granddaughter was a lap-baby when she died - only 4 months old. And now she is a spirited nearly 2.5 year old who speaks complicated sentences, dances and runs, and gets more beautiful every day.
I suppose many would say she's missed so much already, and will miss even more. But I'm not feeling that way - and I have no idea why that is, on a logical level. What I feel, in a deep place of myself: There is still so much unexpected comfort in how near and vivid she truly feels to me. Looking through those souvenirs of our life...the photos and other keepsakes...I felt like she was smiling along with me.
In truth, I don't really sense this is true. Do I feel like her soul is lingering? Not really. Do I feel like I am haunted by this ghost of my mom? No. But that's what her life and her love for me did...it created this imprint of her into me. She is always, always there.
She would love seeing her grandbabies so much, I know. And there's a part of me that aches for her to see them. But there's a surprising part to the grief that loves what she did for them already; the elements that live on even after her.
This is how I want to live. In a way that echoes beyond how long I'm physically here. I want to comfort my children, love them, live in them...even after my body's machinery shuts down.
She would love how truly loved she is. How often and how much she is remembered. The fondness we feel towards her. And how much her grandbabies speak about her.

AN ICE-COLD milkshake is the latest treat to undergo the British deep-fry phenomeon - creating a 500-calorie monster snack not for the faint-hearted.
Even milkshakes are not immune to the deep-fat batter craze
British chef John Clarkson said he wanted a new deep-fry challenge and decided to test himself with milk.
The self-procalimed 'Willy Wonka of the chip shop trade' described the colossal battered treat as the "ultimate chippy dessert".
He said: "We have done a lot of things with burgers and fast food so we thought we would do something completely different.
"Nobody has ever deep-fried milk like this, and certainly not milkshake, so I wanted to give it a go.
"You would expect it to melt or fall to bits but it doesn't and they're actually delicious.
"I let some customers try them as samples and they have been coming back to have them as dessert.
"Their first reaction was, 'what!?' They think I'm daft as a brush. They say I'm the Willy Wonka of the chip shop trade, which is quite funny.
"I've had this shop for a long time and it can be quite laborious so I like to do things to keep the job fun.
"Now not only can you drink milkshake, you can eat it too."
John Clarkson loves to experiment with deep-fry trend
The bizarre concoction - named a 'chipshake' - was born after Mr Clarkson froze milkshake mixture in an ice cube tray, coated it in batter and then gave it the deep-fat fryer treatment.
The resulting crispy battered balls, which ooze a soft, warm milkshake centre similar to custard, sell for just 65p - and have been an overnight success.
The snack, sold at Mr Clarkson's Mister Eaters chip shop in Preston, Lancashire, comes in three varieties: strawberry, chocolate and vanilla.
The chippy also offers the treats without batter, to produce colourful blocks of fried milkshake.
The 53-year-old took inspiration from the Spanish dish Leche Frita (Fried Milk), which is created from blending flour and milk into a dough before it is cooked in a frying pan.
Mr Clarkson, who has run the local chippy shop since 1989, has become well known for his experimental calorific treats.
He once designed a battered Steak Pudding, made using a steamed suet casing filled with steak and gravy.
The entrepreneurial takeaway boss also created a whopping 2,000 calorie battered Big Mac burger wrapped doner meat, dubbed the MacDoner.
Clarkson's chippy has also been responsible for deep-fried cream eggs, tea cakes and Ferrero Rochers
The battered MacDoner is the ultimate guilty pleasure - and the mammoth meal even manages to match the recommended daily calories for a woman.
The legendary chip shop has also sold deep fried mince pies, Ferrero Rochers, beer, Christmas puddings, Cadbury's Cream Eggs, cheesecakes, tea cakes, Cornettos and a batter cone filled with mashed potato and a sausage instead of ice-cream.
Mr Clarkson's deep-fried achievements has sealed his place in the upcoming edition of Ripley's Believe It or Not book which documents bizarre achievements around the world.
The unhealthy deep-fry food trend has also seen cooks experiment with bubblegum, an ice-cream cheeseburger, sugar cubes, jelly beans, pizza and butter on a stick.
Even alligator meat, scorpions and watermelon have not been immune to the deep-fat frier.
