Dallas Mavericks: John Havlicek
Dirk Nowitzki came in at No. 12. The Sports Guy's take on the big German:
One of my favorite NBA lists …Click here to read the entire trade-value trilogy finale on Grantland.
Dolph Schayes
Hal Greer
John Havlicek
Kobe Bryant
Tim Duncan
Paul Pierce
Dirk Nowitzki
That's the 15-Year Club — the only seven NBA players who spent their entire careers with the same franchise, played at least 15 seasons AND won at least one title. You don't just stumble onto that list — all seven are Hall of Famers, with 21 rings among them. Think about what the list means: excellence, durability, longevity, loyalty, championships … it's your best-case scenario for a basketball career, basically.
And you need a little luck along the way. I don't know how Schayes and Greer played that long with all the bad sneakers, bad food, bad medical care, scary travel, second-hand smoke and everything else that should have stopped them back then. Havlicek had a Secretariat-size heart and superhuman stamina. Duncan nearly signed with Orlando. Kobe's Lakers career nearly fell apart twice. Pierce was nearly traded 935 times. Dirk lucked out with a wealthy owner who always spent enough money to compete (so he never had to pull a KG), as well as one sizable break: During the summer of '04, Dallas was the consensus favorite in the Shaq Sweepstakes when Kobe forced the Lakers to trade Shaq the Lakers decided to trade Shaq, only Mark Cuban (astutely, as it turned out) made Dirk untouchable.
At the time, that decision was a much bigger deal than anyone remembers now. A rejuvenated, pissed-off Shaq guaranteed you one title, maybe even two. We all knew it. (As it turned out, Miami won in 2006, and probably would have won the previous year had Dwyane Wade not gotten injured.) When the Lakers could only get Lamar Odom, Caron Butler and Brian Grant's contract for him, I ended up creating the Vengeance Scale to figure out exactly where Angry Shaq ranked among the most vengeful people ever, ultimately assigning him an 8.7 (just behind Charles Bronson in every Death Wish movie). And yeah, I ridiculed the Mavericks for keeping Dirk over dealing him for Shaq, too, even calling Dirk "the German Bob McAdoo" (not a compliment). I never thought you could build a championship team around Dirk's offense. A lot of people felt that way. Looking back, resisting that enticing Shaq trade was probably Cuban's third-greatest NBA moment, trailing the time he stared down David Stern after Game 5 of the 2006 Finals, and, of course, this picture.
What happens with Dirk going forward? Kobe, Pierce and Dirk have one thing in common: They don't have to chase a title like Karl Malone did. Dirk controls his own destiny; if he wants to retire in Dallas, Cuban would be delighted. Kobe probably controls his own destiny, even if there's increasing buzz (no, really) that the Lakers would amnesty him if it guaranteed them Chris Paul and Dwight Howard. Sadly, Paul Pierce doesn't control his destiny — he's probably getting traded this summer by a team that wants to rebuild. That's the difference between being a star and being a superstar. But if you think Dallas isn't going balls-out after CP3 this summer to give their loyal superstar one last run, you're crazy. We might even see Mark Cuban skip a Shark Tank taping this time around! Don't count out Dirk Nowitzki just yet.
Cold shooting in Chicago for Dirk Nowitzki
Chicago's United Center is a different story. Nowitzki and the Mavs make their lone visit against the Bulls tonight, a game the 7-footer is fully expected to play in despite Dallas having clinched a playoff berth.
Nowitzki might not play his full allotment of minutes, but he will be looking to raise his shooting percentage in the Windy City. According the Elias Sports Bureau, Nowitzki has a .415 career field-goal percentage at the United Center, his lowest career field-goal percentage in any arena in which he has at least 100 attempts.
Other tidbits from Elias heading into tonight's nationally televised game on ESPN:
* Nowitzki has scored 24,095 points during the regular season, all with the Mavs. Only four players in NBA history scored 24,000 points while playing their whole career with one team: Kobe Bryant (29,458 with Lakers), John Havlicek (26,395 with Celtics), Reggie Miller (25,279 with Pacers) and Jerry West (25,192 with Lakers).
* Jason Kidd is not expected to play tonight, which leaves him with one final opportunity on Thursday at Atlanta to extend his streak of recording at least one triple-double to 18 consecutive seasons. He holds the NBA record of 17 seasons in a row. Kidd has had at least two triple-doubles in every season he has been in the NBA. He nearly got it done on April 12 at Golden State, but finished one point shy with nine points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds.
* Jason Terry has made at least one 3-point field goal in 78.7 percent of the regular-season games he has appeared in during his career (804 of 1,021). Only four players in NBA history have made a 3-pointer in a higher percentage of their games than Terry (minimum: 500 games): Ray Allen (89.0), Peja Stojakovic (85.2), Reggie Miller (80.1) and Chauncey Billups (79.2). (The NBA instituted the 3-point line in 1979-80.)
* The Mavs are 10-6 against Eastern Conference teams this season. With two games to go, they are assured of finishing with a winning record over the other conference for a 12th consecutive season. Only one other team has posted a winning record against teams from the opposite conference in each season since 2000-01: San Antonio.
* The Mavs have posted a 10-6 (.625) record at the United Center since the Bulls began playing their home games there in 1994. That is tied with the Clippers (go figure) for the second-highest winning percentage among visiting teams, behind the Thunder (11-6, .647).
* Bulls 3-point specialist Kyle Korver is shooting only .344 from the field in the second half of games this season. Only three players in the league have a lower second-half field-goal percentage than Korver (minimum: 150 FGA): Toney Douglas (.313), Stephen Jackson (.330) and Lamar Odom (.335).

Two teen celebrities. One perfect romance?
Jaden Smith, the young rapper son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, certainly seems enamored with Kylie Jenner, the half-sister of Kim Kardashian – saying in a new interview that they're the best of friends, even as others believe they may be something more.
"I was in L.A., we were all hanging out," Smith, 14, tells Britain's Wonderland Magazine. "Then I went to New York and she came too, and then she came here [to London] and surprised me, so that's pretty baller."
He adds: "She's one of my best friends. It's pretty awesome."

Jada Pinkett Smith knows a thing or two about diet and exercise.
The 41-year-old mom to Jaden, 14, and Willow, 12, who recently showed off an extremely toned beach body, says the craziest diet she's ever done actually involved a whole lot of eating.
"My craziest diet was for The Matrix," Smith told PEOPLE at the Vera Wang Fall 2013 Collection fashion show at Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week on Tuesday. Seated front row next to model Chrissy Teigen, Pinkett Smith enjoyed some girl time away from husband Will Smith, who recently vacationed with pals – and parents-to-be – Kim Kardashian and Kanye West in Brazil.

When it comes to raising her kids, Jada Pinkett Smith isn't authoritarian in her rule-making.
"I think that old school style of 'I'm your parent and I'm greater than you' doesn't work," she told PEOPLE at a Yes to Prop 35 event hosted by The Moms on Monday afternoon. "What I establish with my children is a partnership."
Adds the actress: "I'm not necessarily dictating what is happening in their lives."

Jada Pinkett Smith is an experienced hand at dealing with rumors she's headed for divorce.
"It seems like that happens at least once a year, or at least once every two years," Pinkett Smith, 40, tells September's Essence.
"It's rumored that we're getting a divorce. But no. We're not getting a divorce. Where am I gonna go? Where am I going to go?" she says of her 15-year marriage to husband Will Smith.
"That's my boo. It's like he's another part of me."

Despite reports of trouble in their marriage, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith were caught smooching Friday in Philadelphia – on the Jumbotron!
Will, 43, and Jada, 40, were "couply and cuddly," says fellow spectator Becky Haring, 22, of Birdsboro, Pa., who sat a few rows away from the famous pair at the Philadelphia 76ers-Miami Heat game Friday night. "They were having a good time," she says.
Philadelphia-native Smith danced during the game (even though his team lost 84-78) and at one point planted a wet one on his wife for the "kiss cam."
The night out was a family affair for the basketball-loving couple, who posed courtside with kids Willow, 11, and Jaden, 13.

Like father, like son. From the flat top to the ears to the full mouth, Jaden Smith is growing up to look just like his dad Will Smith.
The 13-year-old has come a long way since playing Dre Parker in the Karate Kid remake in June 2010.
Looking significantly more mature and mirroring all of his handsome 43-year-old dad's features, Jaden posted a WhoSay photo on Tuesday from the set of his latest film After Earth, which is set for a 2013 release.
Originally posted 11/17/2011 06:00AM
What an awesome dad! Will Smith and son Jaden, 13, were sitting front and center for Kanye West and Jay-Z's Watch the Throne tour, which stopped recently in Miami. The father-son duo were in a VIP section, and they sang along and really got into the music. Before the concert, the two stopped by Prime 112 Steakhouse in Miami Beach for dinner with a large group. Fans approached Jaden for pictures, and Will seemed very happy to share the spotlight with his son. Otherwise, the two spent their meal just laughing and joking.

The kids were alright at the BET Awards on Sunday night, as Willow and Jaden Smith (at left in the photo) shared the YoungStars Award, much to the delight of proud parents Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith.
At center in the photo is Diggy Simmons, who was also nominated in the category.
Chris Brown was the night's big winner, earning four awards, including best male R&B artist, while Patti LaBelle received the Lifetime Achievement Award.
"When anyone asks me who I want to be like, I always say Patti LaBelle," Beyoncé told the audience.

Gil Evans
Gil Evans
One of the most significant arrangers in jazz history, Gil Evans' three album-length collaborations with Miles Davis (Miles Ahead, Porgy and Bess, and Sketches of Spain) are all considered classics. Evans had a lengthy and wide-ranging career that sometimes ran parallel to the trumpeter. Like Davis, Gil became involved in utilizing electronics in the '70s and preferred not to look back and re-create the past. He led his own band in California (1933-1938) which eventually became the backup group for Skinnay Ennis; Evans stayed on for a time as arranger. He gained recognition for his somewhat futuristic charts for Claude Thornhill's Orchestra (1941-1942 and 1946-1948) which took advantage of the ensemble's cool tones, utilized French horns and a tuba as frontline instruments, and, by 1946, incorporated the influence of bop. He met Miles Davis (who admired his work with Thornhill) during this time and contributed arrangements of "Moon Dreams" and "Boplicity" to Davis' "Birth of the Cool" nonet.

A Safer Dupont . Wednesday, June 20, 6:30-8:30pm Jewish Community Center, Community Hall 1529 16th St NW The Dupont Circle Advisory Neighborhood CommissionJun 18, 2012View SourceA Safer Dupont
Wednesday, June 20, 6:30-8:30pm
Jewish Community Center, Community Hall
1529 16th St NW
The Dupont Circle Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) is hosting a community meeting for residents and business owners to discuss public safety issues in the neighborhood. Police and Transportation officials will be in attendance, in addition to community leaders, elected representatives, and public safety liaisons.
This is an opportunity to have your voices heard on concerns, issues, and ideas from neighborhood crime to pedestrian and bicycle safety — and for you to help inform and guide the city's public safety agenda. It will not be an opportunity for blaming and alleging, but rather an opportunity have your concerns noted and discussed so that they can be addressed productively and collaboratively — if not at the meeting, at least in the near future.
(Please email Public Safety Liaisons Kishan Putta and Noah Smith at kishanputta@... and noahsmith6@... if you have any specific issues or information you would like us to provide or discuss.)
* We hope to hear from YOU on June 20 * (The ANC thanks the Urban Neighborhood Alliance, the Dupont Circle Citizens Association, Gays and Lesbians Opposing Violence, and Historic Dupont Circle Main Streets for their partnership and thanks the Jewish Community Center for hosting)

Eight to twelve players:
- two wizards
- a maverick
- the arbiter
- two warriors — you can play with just one warrior but it's way worse
- a corporal
- A ledgerman. The ledgerman just keeps score. And he wears this hat
The goal is to accumulate cones:
- four cones wins.
- To get cones you need to build a civilization.
That's where the Spirit Cards come in:
- You can use the cards, on any roll ( on any roll) to get city points.
- You can trade in twelve city points for one cone — or, and here's the twist, you can use eight city points to prevent the warriors from scavenging (which is 8 points)
Agriculture cards:
[more to come later]
The challenge play
- It's basically the game in reverse!
- The maverick should be able to trade lumber for agriculture credits!
This includes Tatiana Maslany's second appearance and a Halloween ep that was set to air on 10/31. In conclusion, NBC still hates you.
Clip: Tatiana Maslany on 'Parks and Rec' | Vulture
Robin Williams took down Michael J Fox in the battle of returning TV stars, nearly doubling the competition's total viewers, but my guess is that has a lot to do with the 'Big Bang Theory' of it all (which returned to higher numbers than last year). 'Fox' doubled 'Parks and Rec's ratings though and matched 'The Office' debut from last year, so there was clearly some interest in it. 'Glee' was down 30% year over year. And note that the 'SHIELD' repeat bested a new 'Parks'.

Their departure will be in Season 6's 13th episode.
I'm much more broken up about Lowe's departure than Jones'. Rashida Jones is a fine actress, but Ann Perkins has always been one of the more problematic characters on the show. Cast shakeups happen all the time (and have to this cast before), so there's no reason the show can't go on and be just as good or better (in a different way).

Exactly when a Bankruptcy petition is filed can make a big difference in your case.
There's an old Vaudeville bit that has one comedian talking to another. The first asks: "What is the most important thing about com…" and before he can finish his question, the other comedian answers "Timing." Ok, not very funny; but just as true about comedy as it is about filing bankruptcy. A mistake in the timing can leave you with a much more ineffective or difficult case and you otherwise might have.
In bankruptcy, there are several reasons to file the petition earlier rather than later:
1. End the annoying credit calls and letters;
2. Stop a garnishment or attachment or even a foreclosure;
3. Lock in your income for the past 6 months (avoid listing a year-end bonus on the means test (B22));
4. Start rebuilding your credit;
And there are several reasons where waiting might make the Bankruptcy more effective:
1. Avoid the preference period for that payment to mom;
2. Wait more than 90 days to avoid a presumption of fraud when you used a credit card for a luxury purchase under (523(a)(2));
3. Wait until more than 6 months have passed from receiving a Christmas bonus;
4. Wait until enough time has passed to be able to discharge some taxes;
5. Wait until enough time has passed since your last bankruptcy.
You get the idea. The exact day you file your bankruptcy petition can make quite a difference in the administration of your case. Many bankruptcies benefit or suffer because of filing a day or two early or a week late. Check with a competent bankruptcy attorney in your area to get this right. It's simply too important to leave to chance.

Watch some early episodes of Hawaii 5-0 from the 60s. They constantly had Asian characters played by non-Asian Hollywood actors. Both Montalban and Mark Lenard played Japanese with fake eyelids.
On the other hand, I gather that since the show was actually shot in Hawaii, they did feature a fair number of actual Asian or Pacific Islander actors, certainly more than most shows of the era.
They did indeed. But in the early seasons (I just finished a complete rewatch of the the series, one ep a week over the last 5 years!), it seemed that any MAIN story character was usually played by a non-Asian TV actor like the above-mentioned fellas.
parts were often Asian TV actors like Phiilp Ahn or James Hong. Background actors were often local Hawaiian talent. Naturally there were exceptions (female Asian parts were usually female Asians like Nancy Quan or France Nuyen). In later seasons it got better, but early on there were a lot of fake epicanthic folds on display!

At Shanker Hotel Kathmandu, excellent service and superior facilities make for an unforgettable stay. Top features of the hotel include authentic heritage accommodation, beautiful poolside and garden area, professionally managed travel desk, concierge, restaurant, 24 Hour Room Service, banquet & convention center and historical neo-classical architecture. With an ideal location and facilities to match, Shanker Hotel Kathmandu hits the spot in many ways.Shanker Hotel Kathmandu has a long history and many events associated with it are part of the country's history itself. This palatial hotel, which was once owned by a Rana Maharajah of Nepal, is characterized by exquisite and authentic objects d'art, which enhances the beauty of the existing exterior. Nepal's Late Queen Aishwarya and her sisters were be born in this palatial building. Besides this, it can truly be said to be a monument showcasing the European neo classical architectural style of the Rana regime in Nepal. We have been tenacious in clinging to our roots and by doing so; we stand out as a hotel with few equals, if at all in the historical city of Kathmandu. ... more less

Read "Flash Fiction and Happy Accidents," an interview with Christopher DeWan on LitWrap.
Aspirin for Gangrene
You're new. You show up in town with a few things you stuffed into a bag. They're not essential or valuable or even all that well-planned; they're just the things you happened to bring. You arrive for no particular reason: everyone has to live somewhere; and maybe it doesn't matter where, as much as people think.
This place will do.
You walk a lot, somewhat relentlessly. You could take busses or trains, but you don't, because you don't want to miss anything. You want to see everything. You want to learn to distinguish that corner from that corner from that corner; and you do. You've only been in town a few days and already you see the sense of it.
You learn your way around. You learn the bus routes and the ways people talk, and why it's better to buy your coffee from here and your lunch from over there. You find an apartment and a way to make a living, so you go back and forth, carving out a new routine, slowly, like a river carves a canyon. There are people you begin to see regularly, co-workers, neighbors; and you see some of them regularly enough that you call them friends.
You learn some shortcuts, some efficiencies. Direct routes. The routine cuts a little deeper.
But unrest is a whisper in your ear, or maybe that's ambition, and you find another, better job; and like two points plotted on a graph, you can now connect your two jobs and call the line a "career path." You find yourself out at restaurants and bars for the second or third time, remembering the first time nostalgically. People sometimes ask you for directions on the street, and you're happy to oblige.
You meet still more people, and some of them become new friends, till you've accumulated more than a few, enough that you actually sometimes lose track. You wonder, sometimes, whatever happened to that one, that old friend? You haven't talked to them in a while.
The freshness wears off. The grocery store, the pharmacy, once sources of small pleasurable novelties—cereals and toothpastes you'd never seen, medicines with unfamiliar labels—these things are the new normal. You cease to notice the quirks on your walks—the gaslights and the cobblestone streets, the woman who hawks newspapers a little too aggressively, the fountains and sculptures and scenery, the man who needs one dollar to ride the bus.
You're discontent; you're not clear why. You think maybe it's because the color of the light in your apartment is wrong, tinged with too much yellow. You find another job, but you're not certain that it's a better one. It offers you a fresh commute in the morning, and new people with whom to small-talk. You wonder if it's like aspirin for gangrene. You sigh deeply. You take longer walks home, if home is the word you mean. The routine cuts deeper, a habitual insulation that it's easy to confuse for continuity, direction, meaning. Nothing is actually bad, but still, you find yourself packing a bag, a small one, filled with arbitrary things, and thinking of other places. It doesn't matter where. Any place will do. Somewhere new.

Other Glenn Ford Quotes
I suddenly realized that the fellow who didn't show up was getting about fifty-times more money than I was getting. So I thought, 'this is silly,' and became an actor. I certainly never thought I'd wind up in motion pictures. That was far beyond anything I'd ever dreamed of.

love is sometimes strange
can cut you like a knife

shape you into something
you don't wish to be
i know i'm sometimes blind
and i don't read the signs
but deep inside
you know you'll always be
my priority, my priority
laughing with each other
like we used to do
i'm coming home
circulate you're system
with love, WITH LOVE
i gave you this time
a mountain to climb
an ocean to swim
a light that's so dim
and if truth be told
a heart so cold
arms that won't hold
still i want to come home

Sorry to be posting again, but I just looked at their sedar documents, and found that they filed an interim statement for the periode ending november 30th.
2 months ago, they had just over 4M$ in cash. Compared to august 31st, it's quite good because they just burned 300 000$ in 3 months leading to november.
Now they're raising 4M$. Total: 8M$. I think it's a fair assessment to say they would have enough cash to go all the way through phase 3 drilling and another resource estimate. A PEA? Depends on the amount of drilling.

Cadence expands verification IP portfolio to accelerate adoption of emerging mobile standards
September 27, 2011 // Paul Buckley
Cadence Design Systems, Inc., has unveiled new protocol and memory model verification IP (VIP) that will accelerate the adoption of the latest mobile standards. Through close collaboration with leading system and semiconductor companies, and standards bodies, Cadence is delivering VIP at an early stage in many cases, ahead of the final specification helping mobile SoC and system manufacturers to be first to market with increasingly feature-rich mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets.
"The need for increased computing power and sophisticated video, audio and storage on mobile devices has given rise to new standards that improve performance and power, while reducing development time and cost," said Ziv Binyamini, corporate vice president, research and development, System Realization Group at Cadence. "In order to leverage these standards, our customers need solutions that can accurately test the functionality of their design and ensure manufacturing success. Our extensive protocol expertise, combined with our track record of effectively verifying thousands of designs for over a decade, gives customers a proven path to success in the mobile market."
"MIPI Alliance continues to advance mobile interface standards with processor and peripheral protocols that streamline system development and expand the sophistication of today's mobile devices," said Joel Huloux, chairman of the board, MIPI Alliance. "By ensuring verification support for these protocols at the earliest stage possible, companies such as Cadence enable mobile designers to embrace the latest standards and deliver products that transform the consumer's mobile experience."
Earlier this year, Cadence became the first company to add support for ARM Ltd.'s AMBA 4 Coherency Extensions protocol (ACE), speeding the development of multiprocessor mobile devices, and the DFI 3.0 specification , which defines an interface protocol between DDR memory controllers and PHYs.
Cadence has expanded the company's VIP offering for mobile applications with support for the following standards:
- LPDDR3: This low-power version of the pervasive DDR3 memory standard enables customers to meet the high bandwidth and power efficiency requirements of mobile systems.
- MIPI CSI-3: Providing an advanced processor-to-camera sensor interface, MIPI CSI-3 enables mobile devices to deliver the bandwidth required to enable high resolution video and 3D.
- MIPI Low Latency Interface (LLI): This interface cuts mobile device production cost by allowing DRAM memory sharing between multiple chips.
- USB 3.0 On-The-Go (OTG) : Providing 10x the performance of the previous USB specification, USB 3.0 OTG allows consumers to rapidly transfer data, such as video and audio content, as well as quickly and effortlessly charge devices.
- Universal Flash Storage (UFS): A common flash storage specification for mobile devices, UFS, a JEDEC standard, is designed to bring higher data transfer speed and increased reliability to flash memory storage.
- eMMC4.5: Designed for secure, yet flexible program code and data storage, eMMC4.5, a JEDEC standard, enables high bandwidth, low pin-count solutions that simplify system design.
- cJTAG: With its support for reduced pin count, power management and simplified multichip debug, cJTAG enables efficient testing of mobile devices, a key requirement for delivering high volume, high quality mobile devices.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) -- President Barack Obama is known for his grass-roots organization. In 2008, even Republicans praised it. But this year, Republican Mitt Romney has placed a big emphasis on recruiting thousands of volunteers to register voters, knock on doors and make telephone calls right alongside Obama for America.
It's difficult to say which side has an advantage. But a close race could come down to the effectiveness of volunteer surrogates -- people like stay-at-home mom Katie Sprung, of Tampa, Fla., and evangelical pastor Terry Bear, in neighboring St. Petersburg.
A neighborhood team leader for Obama, Sprung says the election is playing out "in the streets." Bear is filling a more traditional get-out-the-vote role: calling lists of Florida voters and encouraging them to support Romney, because, Bear says, it's time for another change.

It may take a while to decide who the most annoying houseguest on Big Brother Canada is — my vote goes to Suzette — but the show has become an immediate hit for Shaw Cable.
According to a press release, Canada's latest American reality show spinoff attracted 3.3 million to Global and Slice on Wednesday night, and placed second to Survivor in the coveted 18-49 demographic.
The stunt scheduling decision to broadcast Big Brother Canada's debut on Global paid off, attracting close to three million viewers to the conventional channel.
Over 300,000 tuned to BBC's home channel Slice, marking the highest ratings in that channel's history.
Shaw boasts the reality program's website reached a million page views in just over a day.
Thursday's episode saw Tom and Emmett escape elimination and Toronto bartender Kat Yee become the first-ever houseguest voted out of Big Brother Canada.
Big Brother Canada airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET, Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET and Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on Slice.

Kenny Brown Spec JRZ coil-over shocks and struts for 2005-2013 Mustang and Shelby GT500 -- Awesome shocks, I have them on my car and I love them!
In 2011 Paul Brown worked closely with JRZ to develop a unique race shock package for the BOSS 302S Mustang. JRZ's are a top shelf and highly regarded damper at the highest levels of professional racing, and a key to Paul's dominant performance in the 2011 championship. The only set-back is the JRZ Race Line shocks used by Paul in the Pirelli World Challenge series are around $9,000 for the package, a little salty for our track day and club racing customers, but worth every penny if you want to win.
First Drive of the Supercharged 2013 Kenny Brown GT4-S Mustang
With a small break in the Chicago weather, I have been putting some miles on the new supercharged 2013 Kenny Brown GT4-S Mustang automatic and this car is sweet, wicked fast. Ladyhawke, the nickname given to this GT4-S example, is incredibly fun to drive. Around town with the traction control on, which I strongly recommend for normal and highway cruising, it moves effortlessly with crisp handling and impeccable manners, using my AGS 4.0 chassis and suspension package as its power foundation.

So here's a question that's been bugging me for a while;
Can someone explain this to me? Why is the saturated blue on the right, a higher value than the desaturated version on the left? shouldn't the value's be the same regardless of saturation and hue?
Last edited by knoxie; February 16th, 2010 at 09:10 PM.
I first didn't get whats the problem Knoxie but as soon as I actually tried it out in Photoshop I get what u mean now. So if you actually desaturate a coloured photo to get a BW one you kind of mess around the values... very confusing.
I have a question about the importance of a medium like the linseed oil. The first time I tried oil on my own I had pre mixed colours and no oil and it was reall really dry... so I figure I did it wrong by working without something similiar to the linseed oil ?
ha, yeah it's a bit confusing. I'm trying to understand value and colour. I thought the value reads fine on both the colour sketch I was doing, but when I desaturated it the value changed... don't know why.
I'd love to hear the proper explanation to that as well Knoxie. I think it has something to do with inherent values of certain colours... a fully saturated blue is darker than a fully saturated yellow for example (if you put the colour picker in the top right corner of blue and yellow), but I'm not sure what the proper explanation would be.
Sketchbook // Blog
They're the same value. It's just an optical illusion. Paint one next to the other and then desaturate them and you'll see they're the same value.
I would advise trying to understand these questions in terms of how they apply to a particular problem-like painting a still-life or something. If you keep things too abstract, it doesn't make any sense. At least it's harder to understand how the info is really used to solve a problem.
Also, I'm not an expert with these little computer problems. If we can keep these questions more in line with any of the classes from today or yesterday I'll be able to help you a lot more.
ha... i assumed the colour picker photoshop had values reading from dark at the bottom to light at the top. It didn't click that the top right hand corner of the picker doesn't mean it's the brightest value as it is in the top left.
word indeed.
Carl, when you added those blues and red colour variations into the background, did you actually see it in the still life or did you add it because you knew it would produce a nice effect for the eye?
Sketchbook // Blog
Most things are comprised of more than one color. At the most basic level there is at least a variation in color temperature. I just looked for it and then adjusted the background to capture approximately same kind of variation I was seeing.
Hey Carl,
Great class today!
I forgot to add this to my question earlier.
When you were painting the pear, were you also thinking in terms of the structural planes of the form?
And could you explain a bit about turning form with colour instead of value?
I think I can answer your question Knoxie, but we'll have to start with some PS blending mode definitions.
- Normal: Default color – nothing fancy here
- Multiply: (darkens values) Multiplies the blend color with the base color. The result is always darker than the original color.
- Screen: (lightens values) Multiplies the inverse of the colors being blended. The result is always a lighter color than what is being blended.
- Overlay: (as good as it gets for ultra-fast color application) Multiplies or screens colors based on the base color. The highlights or shadows of the objects below show through, while mid range colors and patterns are blended as with multiply. Despite what the HSB sliders tell you, the resulting value is correct - you can check this by desaturating the image.
None of these affect a color's Hue or Saturation – If you want to simulate light passing through a semi translucent object, the Color or Hue blending mode is a great way to start simulating those visual effects.
All that said:
None of the blending modes are going to get you to a 100% accurate result in just one pass. You will need to combine them in a super boring and painstaking way to achieve a near realistic result. So--
-- It's not a complete solution for painting color. Some artists will go in with a new 'normal' layer and start painting over their image. This frees them to use whatever they like and achieve more interesting / painterly results that uses a wide range of hues, saturations, and values. The overlay is just a starting point.
Hope this helps!

ha! thanks adam. I think I'll stick with painting with colour from scratch from now on. no more fancy layer modes for me.
You should definitely think about the planes of the structure that make up the object you're painting. You should always do that. It's sort of the whole point in making an illusionist painting.
Form doesn't turn because of color really. Value is what does the trick so concentrate on getting the right value in order to make your forms believable.
Last edited by Carl Dobsky; February 17th, 2010 at 11:26 AM.
I bet some of you guys would learn more by trying to paint rather than geeking out on numeric values of color swatches. Focusing on that stuff in isolation will get you nowhere fast. You need to go through the actual act of making a work of art for this stuff to be of any value. So let's stop littering this thread with screen captures of your color picker ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS NOT WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT AT ALL. Got it?
All oil paint contains linseed oil. It is the "MEDIUM" that suspends the particles of pigment on the support.
When you use linseed oil you're just adding more of what is already in the paint. The purpose of doing this is to make the paint have a better flow to it. Also the more oil the longer the paint stays wet which can be nice if you want to work wet into wet on the following day.
Mr. Dobsky, I wanted to ask again about the advantages/disadvantages of working from one area to another and blocking in then rendering. I know the end result is that with blocking in whole color, it looks flat and you end up fixing almost all of it.
Though what about working larger, whether on canvas or digitally (since I guess it's a general rule), I know it's intimidating as a beginner to start in one area vs. the whole space you have and as you said, you can make that one area so far ahead of everything else. Also, wouldn't an underpainting be a block in anyway? Apology if it's a simple question.
Hey all,
Just posting to say that I'm working on a still life in oils. It will probably be finished tomorrow. Art is hard.
Want to see someone become a master? (My Sketchbook)
Alright yo's, post'em if ya got'em. This is just started...maybe an hour in? Got the under drawing done (still showing) and most of the colors blocked in. I realized I was starting to get caught up in the middle of the boot, so I branch out and hit other big areas. Not happy with the yellow highlights yet.
This is probably too early for crits, but if you have them, I want to hear them!
Well you answered the disadvantage part there yourself. The advantage to massing things in is that you can build the picture up as a whole.
Working from one area and finishing it as you go requires you to already have the whole in mind and also forces you to really try to definitively understand what it is you're trying to do. The disadvantage is that it can be really difficult for a beginner to work that way and takes a bit of time ot get used to.
Does that make any sense? Feel free to ask again if it still isn't clear.
Art store was closed by the time class was over so i haven't been able to get any oils yet. I started this during my lunch break at work today. I didn't have much time, so I did what i could and took a picture and finished at home. Starting on the next one now.
RESULTS! awesome work Adam.
before I visit "rendersville" I thought I'd drop of a WIP. Note for next time... do not paint pebbles.
Dude!! Looking good so far! Cool idea with the light passing through the bottle. That'll be interesting to solve. The text on the label is going to be rough, i always have problems with that.
Can't wait to see the finished product!
Dang! You guys really stepped up for this one. I'd better bring my A game! I really hope to have both of you as classmates in the near future.
I thought this was about how Rambross uses OIL PAINT not photoshop.
You guys, seriously, it's awesome that you're trying this stuff out but I could help you way more if it was done in the medium that the demo was done in.
I'm afraid I didn't use the same technique Carl used in the demo. I painted in all the areas first (by laying down the whole background and then realizing what a tool I am).
The still life's still set up, so this could tentatively be considered a WIP, but I've got so much to do right now. How about this: If I think I'll have a hard time fixing it, I'll fix it.
Want to see someone become a master? (My Sketchbook)
OK Craz. You've got a start. I'm going to be real honest here. It took me a minute to understand what I was looking at. It's an apple in a roll of duct tape, right?
So there's a couple of things to work on straight away. First fix the drawing. The ellipses on the roll of tape need to be symmetrical. They're pretty good but they appear a little wobbly.
The next thing to work on is your value structure. Overall they're just too similar. That does a few things. It makes the forms hard to read because there just isn't enough range to build up the forms. Also, on a very basic level there should be a clear separation between light and shadow. Look at the subject and squint your eyes while looking at it. It will bring the shadow shapes together and the light shapes together. Your painting should have a similar feeling. In this particular painting you need to make the value of the shadows considerably darker.
After you establish that, try to render out some form.
Does that make any sense?
Last edited by Carl Dobsky; February 18th, 2010 at 09:27 PM.
Yeah, that's what it is (although technically it's masking tape, not that it's possible to discern that). I revisited it to try to make the corrections you gave, but I'm going to start again. Mostly because I dissolved a few holes in it with the white spirit I used to lighten the background, but also because I feel like I'll get a lot more out of this if I start again from scratch with all I've learned in mind. I got loads out of trying to fix it, though.
EDIT: Stupid attachment manager didn't post my image the first time...

'Jack The Giant Slayer' Tops Box Office But Is Still Considered A Flop
"Jack The Giant Slayer" earned the number one spot at the weekend box office. The Warner Bros. film debuted in first place with $28 million, but that number isn't very impressive considering it cost $190 million to make.
The film has received mixed reviews and its release date was juggled around before Warner Bros. relented on a March 1 debut. Next weekend the film has to compete with another fairy tale-like film: "Oz the Great and Powerful," which is expected to debut at $75 million, according to the Los Angeles Times.
"Jack" is poised to follow last year's big-budget box office flop- Walt Disney Studios' $250 million "John Carter," which earned just $73.1 million domestically.
The film centers on an ancient war that is reignited when a farmhand named Jack unkowningly opens a gateway between his world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim their land, forcing Jack into the battle of his life to stop them.
It's been a good year so far for the film's star, Nicholas Hoult, who has scored back-to-back number ones at the box office. Less than a month ago his zombie comedy "Warm Bodies" debuted at number one.
Comedy "Identity Thief," starring Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman, came in second place with $9.7 million, followed by "21 & Over" ($9 million), "The Last Exorcism Part II" ($8 million) and "Snitch" ($7.7 million).

— | Aragorn, from the movie: The Lord Of The Rings - The Return of The King (via daydreamer-bi) |

Armed gang kills 31 in Algerian massacre
Monday 03 February 1997
Some 50 men led the attack just after midnight on Friday, invading a neighbourhood in Medea, and forcing residents into the street where they were killed and then beheaded by a dwarf, the paper quoted residents as saying. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the massacre, but suspicion fell on Muslim militants. A source close to security forces said they believed the 31 were related to a dissident member of the Armed Islamic Group (GIA).
About 310 people are known to have been killed, and some 600 injured, in attacks since the start of the Muslim festival of Ramadan on 10 January.

As a one-time editor of US News & World Report, I am all too aware of the
The practical solution to ranking mania is not to try to eliminate them -- it's too late -- but instead to crowd the field so that no one "Best Colleges" list has disproportionate influence. Toward that end, the Washington Monthly's latest iteration of its college rankings is valuable simply for existing and adding diversity to the ranking field. It's more valuable than that, because of the way it carries through its analysis about the traits we really should value in universities, plus letting people tailor their own rankings based on the qualities that matter most to them. Here's a glimpse at its "National Universities" ranking, which is quite different from the familiar list in US News (this shows just a few of the elements on which schools are rated).
The introduction to TWM's approach to college ranking is here; a description of its methods is here; the interactive ranking system is shown here. As I've stressed time and again when reporting from overseas, America's vast and diverse university system is (along with its openness to outside talent) one of the advantages hardest for any other country to match, and therefore most important to protect. Among the threats to protect it from is a bogus and simplistic concept of quality. I welcome the Washington Monthly rankings as another step away from the brink of bogusness.
