Love the design, especially the retro kind of look, but his face is just a bit too cheesy for me. -

Love Torchwood but somehow this feels wrong... Jack comes across a tad creepy. Just sayin' -

Exactly what I thought! -
bjoinesmundy said 37 weeks ago
Honestly a little dissapointed. I don't think it captures the spirit of the character at all. Grats on getting a shirt posted though. :) -
Brieana said 37 weeks ago
Thanks for making a charismatic, perfect man into something completely unappealing. Everything is perfect but his face. :( -
jwintergaard said 37 weeks ago
Love Captain Jack, but I agree, the face completely ruins this for me. -
xXnoodleXx said 37 weeks ago
Sorry to the artist, but it has to be said. Love it other than the scary, trollish face. The Captain Jack on this t-shirt could chomp a 2x4 in half and crush someone's thumb in his bum chin. Definitely not a fan. I love Torchwood, and can't wait to meet John Barrowman at comicon this year, but I would feel awful wearing this when I met him. :-\ -
Liekomgz said 37 weeks ago
I was extremely excited to see a Captain Jack shirt, but I must say the face is a bit off-putting. :/ I'll have to pass on this one. -
MsDrWho614 said 37 weeks ago
Finally a Captain Jack shirt!! I wish the design was more sleek but you have to take what you get. He definitely does not get the love he deserves!! -
Pandahpop said 37 weeks ago
This is a really horrible design of Captain Jack. First design on here I have not liked. I hope John Barrowman doesn't see this. -
CourtneyL said 37 weeks ago
I was so excited to see a Captain Jack shirt but like everyone else has said the face is a bit...creepy. Sadly, I think I'll have to pass. -
kingape1 said 37 weeks ago
the bomb or whatever hes on should have been a different color or something imo... from far away it looks like hes just standing in a weird position since it blends in with the rest of the background... mostly it looks like hes passing gas... -
missted said 37 weeks ago
I love captain jack, torchwood and doctor who but this desgin is scary his face looks like he wants to come out and kill me :Z its sadly a pass from me today -
SeparateWay said 37 weeks ago
I would if the design wasn't so goofy. We really do need a cool and subtle shirt design for Jack though -
Dynomoose said 37 weeks ago
If this looked even a little like Barrowman, I'd have bought it in an instant. It doesn't. I'll pass. -
fotioz said 37 weeks ago
Are you serious? I've been waiting for a tom cruise MI3 shirt for hella days. It's about damn time.... -
Hustler03 said 37 weeks ago
I really tried to like this. I want a Captain Jack shirt, but this isn't it. I stared long and hard at this before reading the comments. I am glad I am not the only one thinking his face looks weird. -
kitiara45 said 37 weeks ago
I have to chime in with the rest. Love Captain Jack, love "The Empty Child" and "The Doctor Dances," love parts of this design (Big Ben in the background is beautiful), but the image of Jack himself is terribly disappointing. I wouldn't even have known it was supposed to be Captain Jack without his surroundings. Sorry, no go on this one, and that's a shame. -
bellemehr said 37 weeks ago
A Torchwood shirt is an awesome idea, but the placement and colors all seem wrong, along with that horrible face. :-/ - Load More Comments

This insert helps me wear my baby without fear. She loves it. It is tricky at first but once you get the hang of it, it gets easier.
The infant insert was a great idea, but it didn't work for us at all. I had my baby at the beginning of May, so she would have been the perfect size for this during the summer and we live in Texas. I tried to use it 2 times and the poor baby (and I) were so incredibly sweaty that we never used it again. I would recommend this product for areas with very cool temperatures. Also, it was really difficult to get a baby that tiny into the insert and for them to seem comfortable. I'm sure I could have figured that part out if the weather permitted.

The 25 Biggest WTF Sports Fan Tattoos Ever
Showing your support for your favorite team has been a part of sports since the days of the Middle Ages. People use to wear the colors of their favorite knight to show their love.
Sports have changed but fans have not. They have just found more exciting ways to show their team support. Tattoos are a great way to prove you mean business and will forever love your team. There is no doubting a person with a Yankees logo tattooed to his face.
But what happens when these fans decide to take it to a whole new level? What happens when those fans take a good idea and destroy it from the beginning to the end?
This is a list of the 25 Biggest WTF Sports Fans Tattoos ever. Enjoy.
25. Manny Pacquiao
Image via terezowens.com
It's not that I don't like Manny Pacquiao, because I do. In fact, I think he is the best boxer alive today. That is not why we are here today.
Putting a tattoo of Manny Pacquiao on your body is not cool unless you plan on fighting him in the ring.
24. Pittsburgh Steelers
Image via sportsillustrated.cnn.com
If your leg isn't big enough to fit a full size replica Pittsburgh Steelers helmet, then why would you ever try and squeeze a tattoo on it?
This doesn't look dumb, it looks stupid. It is stupid because I imagine the tattoo artist saying that it won't fit but the Steelers fan drunkenly replying to do it anyway.
Sorry but I am assuming most people were drunk in the making of all these tattoos.
23. Jeff Gordon
Image via ugliesttattoos.net
Are you wondering the same thing I am?
Was that first Jeff Gordon race car originally shaped like a car and, after years of aging, it began to sink?
It might be gross but true.
22. Maxime Talbot
Image via clutch.mtv.com
Look, I don't watch hockey, and I never pretend that I do.
But this is Maxime Talbot and this tattoo is in honor of the moment when Pittsburgh Penguin players realized it was time to beat the Philadelphia Flyers in Game 6 of the 2009 Eastern Conference quarterfinals. They trailed 3-0 in the second period before a fight between Maxime and Daniel Carcillo was followed with Maxime hushing the crowd and the comeback ensued.
Like I said, I don't know anything about hockey, but I guess this isn't as bad as it looks once you get the story.
21. The '08 Detroit Lions
Image via businessinsider.com
In 2008, the Detroit Lions did not win a single game and had an average loss of 15 points a game. They ended the season with 18 players on the disabled list and ended up firing their head coach and half his staff. It was not a thing any Detroit fan wants to remember.
Except, of course, for this guy.
20. Kazaam
Image via blogs.thescore.com
It wasn't that Kazaam was a bad movie. It wasn't. It was a terrible tragedy of cinematic film.
That movie was so horrible it made people actually hate Shaq for a few years. The fact that Shaq was paid seven million bucks to do it was more than astonishing, it was shocking.
So naturally you should get the tattoo of it on your arm, right? Why not? It's not like your buddies won't try and make fun of it every chance they get.
19. Dallas Cowboys
Image via tattoos99.com
If you are a Dallas Cowboys fan, good for you.
I am not.
So can someone explain the lighting bolt behind the helmet? What does that signify? That they are on fire?
18. The Manning Brothers
Image via theawesomeboston.com
If Eli and Peyton Manning saw this tattoo of Eli giving Peyton a noogie, I think they would be very upset.
Then again, I would be surprised if they could find the time to get away from counting their Super Bowl rings and paychecks to care.
17. Johnny Unitas
Image via coltmonday.wordpress.com
Every group of guys has a fall guy. That one guy in each group that everyone rips. He is the guy you can always count on to say something dumb or do something stupid to entertain everyone else.
I am thinking this guy is the fall guy and this is the tattoo they all convinced him would be cool to get.
16. Bubba Watson
Image via torontogolfnuts.com
As I have said before, I am not a fan of tattooing the face of an athlete on your body. So you can easily figure out that I think this is the worst tattoo of the past 70 years.
Why would you tattoo the face of a professional golfer?
You know, not all bets need to go all the way through. You could have just took the beating instead.
15. Jacksonville Jaguars
Image via forums.bodybuilding.com
There is nothing intimidating about this tattoo, and someone needs to tell this guy that.
It is a Jacksonville Jaguar. They haven't been intimidating since Mark Brunell in 1998. And even then, they were a bit on the cushy side.
14. Crazy Boston Fan
Image via businessinsider.com
I appreciate the attempt to make Boston more cool by including every professional sports team from Boston in one four leaf clover on your arm. I give you respect for trying.
The result, however, was horrific. Is that the New England Patriots logo or just a mad guy with a colonial hat on?
But that is nothing compared to the cluster of confusion this thing portrays. Why would you do that? Why?
13. Cycling
Image via totalprosports.com
Uh, was this because you lost your fantasy football league? Is this how the bet was suppose to go down?
Handlebars are only cool when you are Lance Armstrong. Sorry buddy, that is a fail of epic proportions.
12. I Slept with Shaq
Image via totalprosports.com
There is definitely a story behind this tattoo. This guy decided to tattoo his forehead to get tickets to a Lakers game.
On a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the absolute dumbest a human being can achieve, this guy comes in at an 18.
Unless the seats were between Jessica Biel and Adriana Lima, it wasn't worth it.
11. Texas Rangers: World Champions
Image via buzzfeed.com
This guy must really love his sports. He was so excited that the Texas Rangers made it to the World Series in 2011, he got a tattoo in honor of them winning the championship.
The only problem is, they never won.
Maybe it is just a Rangers thing.
10. Houston Texans: World Champs Too
Image via blacksportsonline.com
Nope, it is a Texas thing.
I would hate to be the guy who has to tell him that they didn't make it. Nope, I would love to be the guy to tell him.
9. Oh No, Not Tebow
Image via articles.businessinsider.com
As if words could describe just how WTF this tattoo is.
I would be better off just allowing you this chance to find this person yourself and ask them in person. I wonder how you can turn a Denver Broncos helmet into a New York Jets one.
8. Oakland Raiderette
Image via itsalwayssunnyindetroit.com
You didn't think I could go a whole slideshow without a little sexiness, right?
She might not have been a real Oakland Raiders dancer but at least you will think she is.
7. All Around Boston Sports Fan
Image via tsbmag.com
The idea was brilliant. One day, in his house, this guy was sitting with a few buddies trying to figure out an awesome way to pay tribute to the Boston professional sports teams. This was the result.
Failure? On so many levels.
6. Major League Baseball?
Image via tattoos99.com
OK, who is the tattoo artist that can't draw a perfect circle? Shouldn't there be a template somewhere?
The idea was great. The tattoo was just plain awful. It looks more like a rugby ball than a baseball.
5. Cartoon Joe Pats
Image via johnnybighead.blogspot.com
I remember when I made my first tattoo.
This is such a horrible depiction of the classic New England Patriots logo that it isn't even funny. It is sad.
Was this done by a child?
4. I Hate Blston!
Image via ugliesttattoos.failblog.org
Sometimes people hate other teams so much, they have to get a tattoo depicting that hate. This guy did just that.
The only problem was that he didn't realize the Lakers logo would be an L?
3. Tebow Time
Image via jeremyjojola.com
Say it ain't so.
Tim Tebow, in any font, is not cool to have tattooed on your back. Not at all. Ever.
2. War Eagle
Image via kegsneggsblog.com
If this was a chick, I wouldn't mind it.
But it is a dude. That is just plain wrong.
1. Clemson University
Image via buzzfeed.com
This is such a magnificent tattoo.
They made sure to give homage to everything that makes Clemson University one of the best in America. They included the year it was established, Howard's Rock, the tiger paw, the clock tower known best as Tillman Hall and the name of the Univer...
Does that say Clemons?
That's OK, we can just go back and do it over, right? Wait, this is permanent?
What is the duplicate article?
Why is this article offensive?
Where is this article plagiarized from?
Why is this article poorly edited?

text: I love GTD. Have never been so organized. Well, at least I've never had all my thoughts and ideas down in one place (currently using the awesome omnifocus on my iPad 2, iPhone and iMac... all work seamlessly together). My method includes a routine of Pomodoros (review todos each morning, make a list of items that I want to accomplish in a day, set them on paper in order, and go through them noting each 25 mins with an "X" until that item is done, then onto the next one). The problem is two-fold: first, my todo lists just keep piling up because everyday something new takes priority (this is perhaps the most problematic thing of GTD for me) and I can never finish all my Pomodoros in a day, so they accumulate. My GTD projects, WF, Agendas, etc, are mushrooming like mad... I'm not sure what to do next to get back on track.

Time Magazine lists the Top 10 videogames of 2009
Time Magazine has gone "Top 10″ mental and has issed loads of lists on its website – but only one should be near and dear to your heart.
That would be the list of the top 10 videogames of 2009. Whether or not you agree with the list is entirely a matter of opinion, but here it is anyway:
Top 10 Video Games
- Modern Warfare 2
- Batman: Arkham Asylum
- DJ Hero
- Borderlands
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii
- Geo-Defense Swarm
- Scribblenauts
- Halo: ODST
- Assassin's Creed 2

Time does top 10 games of 2008, GTA IV is top
Time Magazine has published its top ten video games of the year, with GTA IV at number one.
"It's a grade-A shoot-'em-up that doubles as an interactive novel and triples as a sly critique of American consumer culture," says the piece.
Jonathon Blow's platformer Braid comes in at number two, while LittleBigPlanet takes third.
The full top ten:
- Braid
- LittleBigPlanet
- Rock Band 2
- Gears of War 2

Miyamoto in third place on Time 100
Shigeru Miyamoto is in third place in Time Magazine's 100 most influential people of the year award, as you can see here. Go and vote if you haven't already. It's a bit like putting "Jedi" as your religion on a census form, but should distract you for at least two minutes, and therefore worthwhile.

in honor of BioShock PS3, we're creating a new BioShock tee shirt, and looking for fan-submitted designs.
check out the full rules here:
here's mine! (okay its a joke but still it'd make an awesome tee in my opinion)
Once I saw that Elizabeth made this,I knew this would be important.
Since I'm sure that eventually we'll get some good T-Shirt designs,I had better get started if I wanna win!
That's what I thought too.
Unfortunately, I'm not creative enough but I AM looking forward to some REALLY good stuff.
Gah. I Need To Find One To Make A Goodun'.
Here are two designs I made:
Nice contest, good to invlove the fans in the designing of it and also for us to be able to wear them
Those two are great esi, i love the colours on the 2nd one
I might try and enter this since i do alot of work on photoshop anyway and since its Bioshock it will definately be fun. I've just come up with a possible idea, just hope i can make it in 5 or less colours. The prize sounds amazing, definately makes me want to enter Will need to work on my idea, going by the other examples of previous ones in that style id have to make it somehow, cant just use like a screenshot or anything of course...
How do I submit my designs?I tried to and it said something about a server.What do I do?
(Also,and I know this is off topic,but my post number is now 1337.I think that is funny.)
Does it have to be hand drawn, and if I can use photoshop, do I have to worry about copyright and plagarisim?
email your designs to email@example.com per the rules on the post!
Please make the design over 2400x2400 with 300 DPI so we can print it!
A)I tried to send it to that email address,but it said I had to connect to a server (and also I had to type the server in).
B)I can't find a way to make it that big. As large as I can get it is 1600x1200.
Sorry about the double post,but I fixed the problem with:
How do I submit my designs?I tried to and it said something about a server.What do I do?
esipode, are yuo sure YOU made the art? i think that's the point here. xD
Oh no!I think he's onto me!Run!(LOL JK)
K,I submitted them.
I'll be interested in seeing the chosen T-Shirt. I want a BioShock T-Shirt so much, but I can't bother thinking of any designs for the contest.
Whomever wins, needs to send me one of their 10 winner shirts.
what are the figurines going to be?
Can i just ask, we're allowed to use up to 5 colours.. do different shades of colours count as one or does that come under the main colour? Like if for example i use bright green, dark green and a medium green, would that count as one colour (green) or three? Hoping for one lol, not too many colours for mine but quite a few different shades..
I can't get the picture 2400x2400!Grrrrrs!Please help me someone!
Thanks liz
oh.. dont know that i'll be able to do mine then. Had already started it but theres loads of different shades to it. Im not relly creative, cant see a way around it to make it like just white so it looks good (like the white BD one) i like the colours too.. I dont know, my minds a blank at the moment. Oh well will see

hey guys,
PLEASE remember to enter via contest rules -- i need an email to the official address with the design in proper format, with your complete info. a link to an image is not good for me -- if you don't want to be disqualified please read the rules!
After the shirts get printed is it going to be a give away or something you can buy?
Ok, I have 3 more questions and i swear they are my last:
Is there a number of entries limit?
Can I find The bioshock logo font, I've found one like it but it has film strips on the top and bottem?
Does the image sent to you have to be on a tee-shirt like andru_rian did, or can it just be pictures.
I'm sorry again about my question bombardment, P.S. I swear i have no more
I'll probably make one, just for the chance. I still have my original brown tee, but I can't wear it often because my family thinks it is too weird.
This is the t-shirt design I sent in...
you can have the image be a picture, as long as it's not you just slapping a picture on a shirt, it fits the DPI specs, and is 5 colors or less.
i don't know the font name, i'll look into it!
and please remember to email in your entries, not just post them here!
And here's the winner!
where can you buy all this bioshock apparel and memorabilia

Extracts from: CAREER AND VOCATIONfor Louis Armstrong, born 4 August 1901 |
"... Tap the wellsprings of your imagination
"...The best place is at the centre of the stage "...Mythologising the mundane world "...Being first and best
"...The perennial quest for greener pastures
"...Being different requires an individual
path "...The need to be yourself dominates all
other work requirements "...You aren't the only one on stage "...A deep need to connect with the inner
world "...A one-person band |
Short biography Louis Armstrong |
Birth Date: 4 August 1901 American jazz trumpeter, a raspy voiced singer and band leader who was known as the great "Satchmo" for Satchelmouth, the size of his mouth. His infectious huge grin made him lovable to people everywhere and he was known for his sense of humor and vivid energy. Armstrong is the most important improviser of jazz of his day with his perfect pitch and immaculate timing and he taught the world to swing. Innovation and excitement marked his style of the music that is distinctly American, born in the black quarters of New Orleans. With a record of top-ten hits in every decade for half a century, Armstrong is memorable for "Hello, Dolly," and "When The Saints go Marchin' In," as well as his classics, "Weather Bird" and "What a Wonderful World." Armstrong grew up poor among prostitutes and lowlifes in New Orleans, working from the time he was a kid to help his family. He sang on the street corners in the Old Quarter and taught himself to play the cornet, quickly becoming acquainted with the culture of music that could be heard on every street. His first big breakthrough in music actually came from an arrest at age 11. He was arrested and put in the Home for Colored Waifs for firing a pistol on New Year's Eve. Here he received his first formal instruction in the cornet. He rose from a rough and tumble childhood to become one of the first black men in America who had the courage and clout to say, "I wouldn't play no place I couldn't stay." At age 21, he was the talk of South Side Chicago, playing in his mentor's band, Joe "King" Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. So popular were the trademark two-cornet breaks he and Oliver worked out, that they would perform with handkerchiefs over their hands to hide their fingering from imitators. At age 41, his records and movie appearances had made him world famous. He had a rigorous schedule of touring, recording and performing, gradually adding films and TV. Somehow, Armstrong stayed down to earth, never moving any further into drugs than his daily hits of marijuana, which never seemed to hurt his playing. He was, however, known as a world-class eccentric, his own man, brash and irreverent. His talents as a virtuoso trumpet player and irrepressible stage personality were inseparable, as was his mugging, teeth baring and eye-rolling. An unabashed sensualist, Armstrong loved pretty women and ate rich food: he married four times. His first marriage was to Daisy Parker, a prostitute, in 1918. Joe Oliver moved to Chicago that year and Louis took his place in the Kid Ory band. He and Daisy separated in 1922. In February 1924, he married Lil Hardin, the pianist in the King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band. He joined the Fletcher Henderson in New York City that September and cut his first recordings with Henderson's orchestra. On 11/12/1925, Armstrong made his first records as a leader with his own group, "Louis Armstrong and His Hot Five." He and Lil separated in August 1931. From July to November 1932, Armstrong made his first tour outside of the U.S., traveling to the UK. After European tours the next few years, Joe Glaser became his manager in 1935 and remained so for the rest of Louis's life. In October 1938, he married Alpha Smith. They were together for a few years before he met and married Lucille Wilson, his fourth and last wife, on 10/12/1942. They were together for 29 years. Lucille was a dancer at the Cotton Club where his band had a running engagement. The following year, they purchased a home in Corona, Queens, where they lived for the rest of their lives. It was his first "real" home and meant to Armstrong that he had a haven and focus to his life. He died in his sleep on 7/06/1971. Up to the last few days before his death, he was rehearsing for the next performance before his beloved public. The Queen's College Louis Armstrong Archive, in Flushing, NY, has some 5,000 photographs, 84 scrapbooks and 350 pages of autobiographical writings, as well as 650 reels of audiotape.

When teaching this unit in the past, I always used the traditional wooden solid figure shapes. They're very sturdy and are certainly helpful for illustrating the solid figures, but this year I acquired some new math manipulatives and they are fantastic! This one set is particularly fantastic:
I truly cannot say enough good things about this set. It was a little pricey, but they are SO worth it. Each figure is represented in a sturdy clear plastic shell that opens up. Inside there is a flexible plastic representation that unfolds to reveal the shapes on each surface of the figure. you can't tell from the photo, but the inner pieces are also quite durable.
My students predicted what the figure would like when opened (what shapes they thought they would see, and how many of each kind). It was an excellent higher-thinking activity.
I use a variety of solid figure manipulatives (scroll down for product information) as well as photos of real-world objects for each in my classroom. These materials were added to my classroom math center for independent exploration by students.

This has been a fabulous unit to teach in my Kindergarten classroom. The students loved the topic and I was thrilled to provide them with high-quality resources. Do you have any favorite solid figure materials or activities from your own classroom? I would love to hear your ideas!

07-12-2012, 08:30 PM #4My headers are coming tomorrow... I will post some pics.
07-15-2012, 07:54 PM #7I have read where some experience dummy light triggers on and off from the after cat sensors... but those have nothing to really do with the fuel mixture. I will let everyone know how things go... and will post some more pics thru the process of installing them... and if possible a video of the sound before and after. I can't wait to get them installed... I have always been a power monger. How does that song go... a girl can never be to pretty... a car/truck can never have enough power in my book...
07-15-2012, 10:03 PM #8The after cat sensors are only to keep track of the cat's performance. The front sensors are the ones the PCM uses to monitor the f/a ratio.
I would reuse the trucks old sensors when you add the new pipes. There will be some oil/other coatings on the inside of the pipes, let this residue burn off for a few days/weeks and then install new front sensor(s).Ray

07-18-2012, 12:19 PM #9Ordered my O2 sensors, header bolt kit and other necessities for the install. Hopefully will have these installed in a week or two.
08-24-2012, 05:57 PM #10Sorry not pics yet... I will get some tomorrow... I promise. Anyway, I love my headers... I am thinking this is the single best customization I have done. This really brings the truck to life. Now when I see a mustang, camaro at an intersection and they try to outrun you... and you actually pull away from them it is awesome... The only downside is I still get lean codes periodically... with the trinity I keep increasing the fuel mixture a little at a time... but Im thinking I am going with a custom program.

The Fight to Save the Tiger
The great cat is disappearing throughout its range because of habitat loss and illegal hunting, but an innovative scientist in India may have discovered a way to avert extinction
- By Phil McKenna
- Photographs by Kalyan Varma
- Smithsonian magazine, April 2012, Subscribe
"It's a sign saying, 'I am here! I am here!' " says Ullas Karanth as he flails his arms and jumps up and down in a mock attention-grabbing wave.
He is referring to a scrape, a patch of jungle floor recently cleared by a tiger's hind paws. It's huge, the size of a cafeteria tray. Based on the freshness of the uprooted grass along the edges, Karanth figures a tiger passed here sometime last night. I kneel down and am hit by an overwhelming stench—the musky spray of a quarter-ton cat that has just marked its territory.
Signs of tigers are everywhere inside Nagarhole National Park in southwestern India. From our forest service lodge we hear the telltale alarm calls of deer in the middle of the night. On early morning drives Karanth, one of the world's leading tiger biologists, points out paw prints the size of dinner plates. We pass trees with trunks that the cats have raked bare, signposts for rivals and potential mates.
Karanth has deep piercing eyes that can spot a deer a quarter of a mile away from inside a moving vehicle. He prefers, however, to drive with his head sticking out the window so he can read the tracks of every animal that has crossed the path beneath our wheels. Gleefully calling out each animal by name, he seems oblivious as the vehicle swerves alarmingly from side to side.
After days of searching through forests that harbor some of the highest concentrations of tigers in the world, we have yet to see one. Karanth tells me he spent 15 years looking before he saw his first wild tiger. Even when the cats are all around, he says, the odds of seeing one are slim.
A few days later, driving down a dirt lane in neighboring Bandipur National Park, we come across a jeep operated by a local tour company. Bandipur has fewer tigers than Nagarhole, but its dry, open forests make for easier wildlife viewing. The jeep has stopped and its passengers are staring intently. As Karanth pulls up behind them I see stripes of orange, black and white. "Tiger!" I yelp.
One of nature's most perfect killing machines dozes in the afternoon heat. We watch the cat sleep as other jeeps crowd around us like a pack of dholes, the wild dogs that hunt inside the park. People gasp and point, then click their cameras from the safety of their vehicles. Slowly, the tiger opens one eye, and with a casual glance in our direction, locks me in a gaze so powerful that all else disappears. After licking its paws and stretching its back, the cat rises to its feet. Then the tiger turns its head and walks deeper into the forest until it disappears.
From the boreal forests of the Russian Far East to the jungles of Sumatra, tiger populations are in free-fall. In the past century, their numbers have plunged from an estimated 100,000 to fewer than 3,500.

Posted by shruti sharma on January 15,2013 | 04:43 AM
You think these big cats are cute? Help us 'Save the Tiger' then. Never forget, when you help to save even one Tiger, you help to save the species entire. I will be running the Tallahassee Marathon in 2013 with sponsorship from corporate and private donors to raise money exclusively on behalf of 'Save the Tiger'. Volunteer or find your own way to contribute or fundraise. 'Save the Tiger' for us and for future generations. Be part of the change that you envision for the earth.
Posted by Ariel Hessing on December 25,2012 | 10:46 PM
You'd think that with all the organizations that are now working to save big cats, that we could get more done. It's just so hard to turn back powerful economic forces that result in poaching, and to protect big animals that require big territory on which to thrive. With habitat shrinkage and lack of wealth in the remaining habitat countries, the threat is quite formidable. When big names like actor 'Leonardo DiCaprio' get behind 'Save the Tiger', as he clearly has, it gives me more hope, but at the end of the day, you really have to wonder whether we have enough influence to turn this tide before it is too late. As we all know, once a certain critical mass in population size is lost, population collapse is all but inevitable.

In order to make a meaningful difference in the furtherance of a cause, stake out a course of action which will allow you to become part of the change that you wish to see take place. By becoming a catalyst for the causal reaction that produces positive and lasting change, you will make the most of your volunteer effort. I have made the cause to save the Tiger my cause. I hope that you will join me and make this just cause your own.

@ Jeff Gabel: How one can be so narrow minded & not able to see the larger picture. Have you ever read about Eco-system & the symbiotic relationship between Biotic & Abiotic component for healthy balance in Nature. take away the predator & the whole balance of nature will be disturbed to such an extent that our own existence will be questioned. And if you think that wearing their body parts is a part of evolutionary process, then i am sorry to say this "We are doomed".
Posted by ashish ranjan on May 21,2012 | 07:08 AM
we have to help them ,if there were more men like Mr. karantha, the Tigers would be much more safe from the hunters.
Posted by zara patricia on April 30,2012 | 12:37 PM
I was very jubilant to read and hear how one man, Ullas Karanth, has the passion to go great lenghts to keep this species alive and thriving.
Posted by Joe Vitale on April 25,2012 | 02:26 PM
The eye was remembering the Javan Tiger (Panthera tigris sondaica) which extinct long time ago... Perhaps in mythos still alive in mondset of Javanese Culture (the soul of tiger)
Posted by FOReST Indonesia on April 6,2012 | 09:23 AM
I realize that this may sound silly, but I would suggest that the WCS and Mr. Karanth's team seek funding and support from sports teams whose mascots are tigers. At first glance on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Tiger_mascots there were at least 100 teams of significant size that could be appealed to. I know some teams are in need of good PR and have the ear of very enthusiastic donors...this might be just what they're looking for. Good luck! Christine

Untitled #55 Bound
We want to keep you all tied up at our Fresh City Life station at the Denver Art Museum's Untitled for March. Working from the theme Bound, we were inspired to create a magnetic poem activity where you get to whip up some fridge poetry, but only if you obey. Using a system we've invented, you'll be given a recycled book and strict instructions on how to harness your poem out of the words provided in that book. After finding all of your words, you'll turn them into magnets that can be used and abused on your fridge door as changeable poetic phrases. Just remember, the safe word is 'bibliophile.' General admission for Untitled events is $10 and the Fresh City Life station is free with admission. For more details, please visit collective.denverartmuseum.org.

The combat feels more fluid now, but it may just be my imagination. When defending against a two handed weapon, it seems easier to get past the enemy's guard once they've completed their swing. Before I always had trouble timing that.
Cranked up to the highest graphical settings the game is smooth as butter too.
So that opening cinematic. I'm perplexed that so few folks have remarked on how it helps the player through the early stages of the game.
I mean...yes, yes. It looks freaking great, and as a promotional tool for the EE version of the game on 360 and PC you couldn't ask for better. Let's say, though, you're like me, and sometimes have difficulty remember fantasy names (and the importance imputed to same) of characters you never met and won't meet.
That was me in the original version of TW2. There's a cutscene at the beginning of Chapter 1 in both versions of the game, with the title card of "4 Months Earlier". When I first played the game, that scene made zero sense to me. Who's head was that. Why was it in a crown? Was that Foltest? That didn't look like his crown...and I'm pretty sure he didn't get ol' King Sister Lover's head when he killed him, either. I was confused. I'm guessing there was a journal entry that mentioned someone named Demavend. I know I heard folks like Triss and Dandelion talking about him. I also know that I didn't connect him in any way with the plot, my over-arching quest in the game, or any motivations that I as a player or Geralt as a character might have.
So. Now in the EE you get that amazing cinematic, and now when the later cutscene with Iorveth and Big Boy plays, you know *exactly* who's head that is, and *exactly* what importance is ascribed to him in the story. That's a neat--and difficult--feat to pull off.
See, you care about Foltest and what happens to him because of the interactive nature of the Prologue. Your motivations as player become one with Geralt's as a character because you participated in saving the King throughout the Prologue, only to be left helpless at the end. Well done, that. The trick is, they've always wanted us to think strongly of Demavend too--in fact, the events as they play out in Chapter 2 kind of need to the player be thinking about the title of the game a great deal, and the whole "Who's next?" aspect of things.
In the first version of the game, I guess Geralt puts those things together, and it becomes a piece of his motivation in the quest as a character...but as a player I had trouble sorting out who Demavend was or why I should care, and that separated my motivation from the guy I was controlling in the game. CDPR had to fix things so that as a player I would know who Demavend was and care about what happened to him in a larger context, without the participation aspect that's there with Foltest's fate. That's a tall order for a cinematic. That it succeeded beyond any rights is something to be hailed, and why I'm bloviating so much about it.
With that new intro, you get all sorts of foreshadowing with Foltest throughout the prologue that wasn't there before. When that intro cutscene to chapter 1 plays, the whole plot makes a ton of sense, and when folks talk about stupid, doomed Demavend of Aedirn, you know exactly who they're talking about and vividly envision his passing because that cinematic is so amazing, and it ties together everything wondefully in the game's tricky political plot going forward.

You are such an inspiration Gwendolyn! I adore your writing. Can you tell us a little about yourself and the inspiration behind what you do?
Well, thanks, Carmen! I write for kids, picture books through middle grade. I guess I sort of identify with growing up in rural Kansas and living in a small town today. I love that I can easily get to a place where there are absolutely no streetlights and sky is so black you can almost feel the depth at which the stars are scattered.
As a kid I spent a lot of time with my three brothers and many cousins, building fantastic hay forts and riding four-wheelers through the mud. Probably we did a lot of stuff we shouldn't have, like jump out the hay loft window or climb around on the roof of the chicken house. But I think that kind of wide-open space (both in the landscape and in the freedom we enjoyed) fosters creativity.
We're dying to know, what inspires you more than anything else in the whole world?
My kids! When I am with them, really with them, that is to say, present with them, they are a vast source of inspiration and positive energy. Often when I pay alert attention to my kids, whether we're playing or just talking, there is an expansive sense of . . . I think the word would be aliveness, a place where things grow. My family is really the foundation for everything I do. My husband and kids, we love to be silly, tell stories, make up games. And being with them has a steadying kind of effect that I need.
I love the way you describe aliveness – so pure. I have to ask, what is your big dream? Yes, the BIG one! That really, super big, pee your pants when make it happen dream. The one you feel a wee bit nervous saying out loud. Yep, that one!
Well, publication is a big one. I recently had the thrill of seeing one of my picture books illustrated and produced as an e-book for MeeGenius.com (more on that later!), and I would love to have that kind of experience again. But beyond that, I think maybe the big dream is writing something that is truly meaningful. Something that you read and it sort of stops you, holds your full attention, even just for a moment. I think if I could do that, really grab you, whether I make you cry or make you laugh or make you think about something you've never thought of before–that would be the big one.
What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail and fear didn't exist?
I'm not sure. That is a very interesting question. But I guess to some extent I think failure and fear can be my allies, though, of course, I don't enjoy experiencing them. Most of the time, if I'm open to it, if I let it come, failure brings me something new. Maybe it's a release, a let down that sort of frees me from a path that wasn't working and sends the project in a new direction. Or maybe it's just a seed—some part of my idea that I can plant and grow again.
Wow, love your perspective! What are you working on right now that you could use some support and encouragement on?
Right now I'm competing in an online writing contest at MeeGenius.com. Though I was picked by the editor's to enter the finals, the winner will be decided by online votes. If you're reading this and have thirty seconds to spare, please check it out! You can visit on MeeGenius.com to view my story, Robot Party, and click the button that says "like" to vote. I am so grateful for your support!
I am so excited for you! What a fantastic opportunity! So what advice, tips, resources, and overall good-to-know information would you offer someone just starting out with regards to finding passion & inspiration and digging in?
I think perhaps the most important thing may be to find that quiet place inside you. This sounds like a paradox, but I believe spending some time not doing and not thinking is the best way to find true inspiration and fuel quality work. This stems from my belief that, beyond all the thinking and doing we engage in, there is something greater. You could say we are part of it, or it lives inside us, but you have to be quiet to feel it, connect with it, and let it flow through you.
If you're not sure what I mean, or if you think that sounds weird, I don't blame you. I have a hard time describing or explaining it, but it's one of the ideas I've taken from the writings of Eckhart Tolle, whose books have really been nothing short of life-changing for me. If you're interested in exploring his ideas, Stillness Speaks might be a good place to start.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
I'd like to thank you, Carmen Torbus! You are an Agent of Artsiness, a Venture Virtuoso, a Master Motivator, an Inspiration Sensation! Seriously, you rock. Thank you so much for your interest and enthusiasm.
My pleasure Gwendolyn. Thank you so much!!
And for those of you reading this… pop over to MeeGenius now and vote for Robot Party – Gwendolyn's adorable story about the power of friendship. Speaking of friendship, you can connect with Gwendolyn on her Facebook author page right here and on Twitter too.

Usually October is good for sailing with warm Indian summer days, warm enough water, and an abundance of moderate but steady breezes. This fall, though, has been day after day of drip and drear with nary a whisper of breeze. But cold front is coming through tonight so we actually had some wind today. Sitting in the office, seeing the sun coming out for the first time in weeks, the clouds rushing off on the heels of a 10-15 mph northwesterly breeze got the best of me. I snuck out of the office, ran home, and hitched up the Sunfish-clone Starfish boardboat to the car, tossed in a wetsuit vest, some polypro, a paddling jacket, a water bottle, and my GPS and headed up to the lake.
The temperature had already dropped from the 70s this morning to low 60s by the time I was rigged and launched, but the water was still warm enough to comfortably wade in. The wind was coming in about 40 relative to the ramp, so all I had to do was point the bow nearly straight out, hop aboard, tiller in hand, sheet in a bit and drop the daggerboard. After sailing a couple of times in the last few weeks in very fluky conditions, it was a real pleasure to have some weight in the the wind.
We (the boat and I) worked our way to windward for about a mile and a half through a series of ten tacks, not really trying to get anywhere very quickly. When a big puff would come down the lake, I'd usually foot a bit, just to get a bit of the thrill of speed. The GPS showed a speed of 5 mph for most of the day, with lots of 6s,7s, and 8s in the puffs. Having decided that I was gettig splashed enough, we turned back to do some speed runs, searching out the strongest puffs for some downwind flying. I saw over 10 mph a couple of times and a lot of 9s. Absolutely exhilarating!
But it was getting cooler, and I had to get home to feed the kids so I had to end this probable last sail of this year after only a little more than an hour on the water. We're going to get our first freeze later this week. At least tonight I can lay my head down on the pillow with a fresh memory of the tiller in my hand, the tug of the sheet in the other, and the sound of the water rushing past still ringing in my ears.
It's enough to keep me warm for months.

I have five direct reports: marketing director, sales director, bids director and presales director and hr director. They are my areas of focus. The also have areas of focus, i.e. HR has provide incoming flow of candidates, optimize motivation, keep staf happy etc. areas of focus. When we have regular meetings I run with them through their AOFs and projects, noting down next actions they promise to do till the next meeting. I end up with my system full of their projects
Is that so-called micro-management? If the answer is yes, then what should I ask during our weekly meetings to have that at the proper management level?

Rated 3 out of 5Â by IvyLeague Girl Not as Marketed: SUEDE not Leather
THESE BOOTS ARE NOT LEATHER. I'm terribly disappointed. I have had a hard time finding boots (my calves are a bit large and arches a bit high) so when I saw Sperry had boots, I thought "yes, of course!" Sperry's have never bothered my feet and these boots hit mid calf. The shoes themselves are comfortable, a bit narrow in the toes though. But as I said, they are NOT leather. Where I live, rain can come at any moment so suede boots will get RUINED quickly. These boots may be marked "leather" but they really are not. If you have dry falls by all means, get them and enjoy them -- the tan color is GREAT. But if you have unpredictable weather like I do, best look someplace else.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by SusanR Love these boots!
I've had boots that were painful to break in, but not these. I wore them to work one day and they were comfortable from the start. I appreciate the good grip on the soles and heels. To top it all off, these boots look fantastic! My favorite shoe purchase since buying a pair of Doc Martens in 1997 (still wearing those).
May 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Kristin Stylish and comfortable
I got these boots in dark brown. The suede/leather combo is very attractive. I live in the trendy westside of L.A. These boots have a edge, perfect for weekend day activities but I was also able to wear them to a more conservative work setting today with tights and a knit dress. I got two compliments from strangers. They rise to mid shin and have a wide leg so plenty of room to wear over straight legged pants or leggings. The rubber lug sole is very comfortable for moderate walking around town - up to a couple miles (I have a bunion so spaceousness in the ball of the foot and pain free walking are important for me). I forgot to take them off when I got home - for hours! They are almost as cozy as slippers.The quality is very good. I can't say enough.
