Hi Creatives!
We at uCreative decided to create a section on our forum where you can post tutorials you made, or some great tip you discovered or some hack you made on you camera or other hardware.
Please don't make posts with just a link to your site, post the entire tutorial so our members don't have to jump from site to site. If you have your own site and have the same tutorial there, you can post the "source" on the end of your post.
We are working on some new things for this section but for now, enjoy your new section and share your knowledge with your fellow creatives!
If you have any idea for this new section that you wish to share with us, feel free to comment below.
Nice! I'm thinking of something to contribute. :)
Great! Glad to see people interested... :)
This will be a nice place to learn new tips and techniques especially to those who are just starting a career in the graphic design industry.
I hope so ;)
I am glad you made this section and will add some of mine. This will be very helpful for all
Great... We can't wait! :)

The Catholic University for Independent Thinkers
The Adult Faith Formation program at the School of Ministry provides courses, lectures, and workshops on various topics, ranging from philosophy and theology to Scripture, church history, canon law, saints, and more. Some previous course topics include Resurrection from the Dead, Gospel of John, Mariology, Evangelization and Catechesis, and the Catholic Perspective on Human Destiny.
The program incorporates adult learning styles, including discussions, presentations by experts, reflection papers, and reading assignments. The program offerings vary in length and format depending on the time of year and subject of the course, lecture, or workshop, making this the most focused program the School of Ministry offers for those seeking to learn more about their faith.
In Fall 2013, the School of Ministry will begin the After the New Testament Series in Shreveport, LA, at the Greco Institute. Click here for more information.
In summer 2013, the following graduate courses will be offered.
The nature of a life-changing moment demands that we recall the event often, reflect
on its significance, and share our interpretation of it. For Christians, the passion
of Jesus is such a moment. Christianity has a crucified founder and his death on the
cross became the most complex and problematic memory in the early church, requiring,
therefore, much interpretation. Attempts to understand and convey the meaning of the
passion have never ceased. They continue not only in theological and spiritual reflection,
but also in artistic expression. This course will explore the various interpretations
of "Christ crucified" provided by the biblical witness and selected works of art.
We will consider appropriate scriptural texts, analyze a variety of passion images
and representations, engage in discussion, prayerfully reflect on the meaning of the
passion for our lives, and present insights we have gained during this study.
Optional Books:
Aland, Kurt, Synopsis of Four Gospels - English Edition (New York: American Bible Society, 1985).
Senior, Donald, Passion Of Jesus In The Gospel Of Matthew (Collegeville, MN: Liturgical Press, 1991).

Wright, N. T., The Crown and the Fire: Meditations on the Cross and the Life of the Spirit (Grand Rapids, MI: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1992).
"In God we trust; all others pay cash." This course will examine the first part of that statement. Can we trust God? At the heart of the theological endeavor are questions about the nature, event and credibility of revelation, the relationship of faith and other fields of human knowledge, and the adequacy of Christianity's foundational truth claims. God acts (revelation); we respond (faith). We will read, discuss and make presentations on what theologians have to say about this dynamic, covenantal interaction, and how it is the basis for everything we believe and do as Christian ministers in the Church.

Courses meet at the University of Dallas campus in Irving in Catherine Hall. Each course will take place in an "intensive" format over 2 weeks (June 3 - June 15), with class either every morning or afternoon each day, except June 9, 2013. Participants may choose to take one or both courses offered. Each course costs $300. Classes will incorporate adult learning styles including discussion and lecture, but as a community education student, no assignments, papers, or tests will be required.

So I've been playing Oblivion lately which I've pre-ordered back in highschool and suddenly became interested in how people play these types of rpg games... eg. Fallout, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Vampire Bloodlines etc. etc. I for one like creating a Heroine since I like to play these games in a third person perspective. I enjoy watching a Heroine with an attractive personality who is also easy on the eyes but not so easy as opposed to a masculine hero unless of course I decide to play in first person /flex.
With third person games(I always play RPGs third person if there's the option); I'd rather watch a girl's ass bounce around the screen than a guy's, but that's just me...
Like Sheva in Resident Evil 5; I was in love, I couldn't think of anything other than sex while playing that game.
I thought it was illegal to create narcotic substances? For me it usually depends on the game. Sometimes I make a male character and sometime a female, based on the game's background story or the gameplay or the equipment.
Playing a female hero makes me feel so gay for some reason. I mean in online games like WOW or such, specially when interacting with other people. I also feel the same about other male dudes playing females on multiplayer...
And I feel the same about all those here that have a swexy femenine FORUM AVATAR, sometimes there's no way to know if it is a female or male member, it happens all the time. And some avatars are soooooo swexy I really want'em to be just.... that, hehe, be careful.
why no poll? fail. i always go the heroine, cause i'd rather spend hours looking at a fake chicks ass than a fake dudes ass. same for the voices. and yes, i watch lesbian porn because i fail to see the fun in seeing some other dudes wang.
ha ha ha heroine char is kinda interesting but we would loose some masculin feel hero is nice but too familiar coz most of games make its main char is hero
I usually play a Hero first, but I always go with variety after the first playthrough anyway. To elaborate, I've already made significant "background information" behind my primary hero, especially when playing games in the Forgotten Realms setting. I also have some experience in RPing in forums, so there's a blueprint already for my "usual" character. In Fallout 3 and New Vegas, I generally stay true to the titles "Last, Best Hope of Humanity" and "Messiah", although in Fallout 2 I've sold my wife to slavery already. LOL
This poll is sexist. I always play games as a post-op transsexual, who also happens to be a transvestite, better known as TheMailMan78. In all seriousness, who cares? I pick the character who looks the funniest or coolest, in that order. I did really enjoy playing as that hot chick in MGS2:SoL. Also I don't play MMORPGs.
I loved first Tomb Riders, Drakan, Blood Rayne, from The Longest Journey, and also I like to play again with female characters in games like Mass Effect 1+2 or Dragon Age, because of slightly different dialogs and stuff. But not on MMOs...
I always go a Hero because I get so damn annoyed seeing a women out of the kitchen doing mens work ....
Almost always play a Hero, I play these types of games to be and look badass, if I wanted to think I looked sexy I would role play with dolls.
I used to play with a G.I. Joe (with Kung Fu grip, mind you) when I was a kid but back then, for appearances sake, they were called action figures

Melatonin side effects: What are the risks?
Is melatonin a helpful sleep aid — and what should I know about melatonin side effects?
from Brent A. Bauer, M.D.
The hormone melatonin helps control your natural sleep-wake cycle. Natural levels of melatonin in the blood are highest at night. Some research suggests that melatonin supplements might be helpful in treating jet lag or reducing the time it takes to fall asleep — although the effect is typically mild. Melatonin might be more effective for other types of sleep issues, such as delayed sleep disorder or sleep disorders affecting circadian rhythm.
The most common melatonin side effects include:
- Daytime sleepiness
- Dizziness
- Headaches
Other, less common melatonin side effects might include abdominal discomfort, mild anxiety, irritability, confusion and short-lasting feelings of depression.
In addition, melatonin supplements can interact with various medications, including:
- Blood-thinning medications (anticoagulants)
- Medications that suppress the immune system (immunosuppressants)
- Diabetes medications
- Birth control pills
If you're considering taking melatonin supplements, check with your doctor first — especially if you have any health conditions. The correct dose depends on the intended use. For example, circadian rhythm sleep disorders are often treated with 0.5 milligrams of melatonin a day, while doses of 3 to 5 milligrams a day might be used to treat jet lag or reduce the time it takes to fall asleep. In addition, remember that melatonin is generally recommended only for short-term use — up to two months. Some research indicates that longer term use might be appropriate in certain cases, however.
If you take melatonin, choose commercial supplements produced in a lab. Melatonin supplements made from animal sources might contain various contaminants. Don't engage in activities that require alertness — such as driving or operating heavy machinery — for four to five hours after taking melatonin.

Fighting colds and flu
31 July 2012 , 5:34 PM by Rebecca McLaren
It's that time of year again, a few cooler days and you might be in need of Naturopath Sandi Rogers' recipe for Immune tea.
You can find the recipe here.
She also suggested another remedy with roast lemons once the flu has taken hold:
Half fill a baking tray with water
Place three lemons, with peel slightly split so they don't explode, in a roasting rack over the water
Bake for about 30 minutes
Allow lemons to cool then blend lemons and liquid
Add one teaspoon of cinnamon
For children they can take one teaspoon of a day with honey
For adults one tablespoon.
If you're suffering from a blocked nose as well, boil a whole orange and add that orange and water to the lemons in the blender.
Sandi will be back to answer your questions again next fortnight.

Well first of all I think a president Romney would uphold the rule of law.
And like a president Romney I believe in a balance of powers.
And no matter how passionate you are about any any law that you'd like passed we have a congress and not a king.
And so when I first say is I think it's inappropriate for any president no matter how passionate they are about a law they'd like to see -- to do something unilaterally -- the president did.
That said if -- if present -- is elected as he has said he -- what he will work to pass a bipartisan.
DREAM Act or provision to deal with those who are brought here -- no effort of their own but by the parents illegally.
So that they can stay here go to school.
And and it ultimately did get a job.
Look at what senator rubio has been working on in the in the senate bipartisan.
Version of the DREAM Act there have been very very important piece of legislation that -- passed.
Throughout our country's history over 200 years but many of them of taking years to do it.
But they've taken presidential leadership and I think on the issue of immigration reform Democrats -- Republicans have to agree -- one thing.
For the last three and a half years there's been little to no presidential leadership on the issue the issue of immigration reform and I think it's pure politics with the president just did a few weeks ago.
-- the next question for the.
Seafood from hackers I thumb my question is -- geared toward education specifically in the New Jersey area.
I'm currently as a lot of people know Chris Christie has cut a lot of money from public schools especially in Abbott districts.
And I currently and from Newark, New Jersey and I've seen how the cuts had drastically you know -- public education especially my school.
-- -- do you think that the federal government should use education cuts as a means of balancing the budget.
Well as you know as that.
Our constitution says the primary role of of public education is the -- the states so I think that's why you're seeing the -- pack -- and public education for K12 specifically at the states I'm not sure.
That that the federal government will have as big an impact when it comes to cuts.
On to your point about cutting -- education I started out on a school -- actually for four years on public school board.
And so I think funding for public education is extremely important.
I think it's a great equalizer in our country no matter where you come from your background if you work hard you can accomplish great things because of our school systems we have and our country.
That said.
-- I also believe that just is.
I have to cut back during down economic times people have to do more with less I don't think public sector position should be exempt from that.
Whether the schools or universities.
Or the military any unit of and so I think education should be up there with all of the other sacred cows that people might have in terms of cutting back when we're down.
Next question -- congressman please.
-- -- on Houghton.
My question is concerning the youth vote.
I -- newly registered voter.
I Democrat you know I grew up in a -- -- that's purely democratic.
You know my brother -- -- they're both nine years old look up to Obama especially you know the president for being -- the hope of change the face of change for America.
My quick question is why should -- Republican.
Why should you vote further -- Kansas -- real simple.
President Obama aptly said.
When he was first installed as our president that if you have things turn around in three and a half years -- B a one term proposition.
The fact of matter is the president laid out his course for how he thought the economy should -- be turned around.
Whether it be bailing out the auto industry whether it be doing that with the event Affordable Care Act as one of his major proposals.
The Republicans offer a different plan and that is how we believe we got to rein in the mountain of debt.
I -- young person the sixteen trillion dollars in debt is not going to be paid for.
By by foreigners is going to be paid for by American citizens of the next generation we believe any free economy where people can compete.
Where their own energy yen and determination will determine their success I'm not a nanny state government.
Where get more government jobs and more government jobs just leads to more debt.
I don't mean it was less opportunity for people of our generation so it's really one.
Of government -- the private sector.
One that believes in limited government vs one that leads in big government.

Recipe by Bettye
"This is a pound cake recipe that I have been making for years that my grandchildren and children enjoy very much."
Watch video tips and tricks
1/2 cup butter
3 cups white sugar
6 egg yolks
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 cup buttermilk
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
6 egg whites
It is such a wonderful cake. I have made it 1 times in the past weeka and think I may have to make it again this evening.
Overall, this was not all it should or could have been. It was kind of dense and crumbly. After the fact, I compared the measurements to another similar recipe that I had made before. I really think for this much sugar and flour the butter should be 1 cup not 1/2 cup and the baking soda upped to 1/2 tsp. Sorry - this was worth a try but I wouldn't do it twice.

By Doug Book, staff writer
Fed up with the cover provided Barack Obama by a "mainstream" media intent upon minimizing or concealing Administration involvement in the murderous Fast and Furious scandal, Congressman Darrell Issa has decided to provide the opportunity to cover this story of Executive branch corruption and abuse of power to those who broke it in the first place–bloggers and members of the "new media."
The "Gunwalking" Operation Fast and Furious represents the most egregious abuse of Executive branch authority and disregard for the rights and security of the American public since the days of the power hungry Roosevelt Administration.
Yet in the 9 months since the murder of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry last December, the New York Times has published only 5 stories dealing even remotely with the roles of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the FBI or the Department of Justice in this criminal affair.

Freddy Olmsted was a spoiled brat.
That's not the theme of Genius of Place: The Life of Frederick Law Olmsted, Justin Martin's biography of the famed landscape architect and "proto-environmentalist," but I could not escape the conclusion as I read this straightforward and enjoyable book.
Before Freddy got around to designing Central Park (with the inspired but impotent Calvert Vaux) in New York, or Prospect Park in Brooklyn, or the Chicago World Fair site, or any of the other parks and estates in the U.S. that helped him establish the field of landscape architecture... before he helped preserve Yosemite or Niagara Falls, in the years before there was a notion of a National Parks system... Olmsted was a chronic failure and a mooch.
He couldn't hack it at school so he moved home with his father and stepmother. He gave up his first job as a surveyor to sail to China. Then he spent a summer on an upstate New York farm, and he became inspired in the way that a good vacation sometimes inspires, and he decided to become a farmer... so he asked his father to buy him a farm. Not just any farm, but a farm in Connecticut on Long Island Sound. What's more amazing: His father bought the farm... and the seed... and the tools and equipment, and everything else Freddy would need (no one really called him Freddy, and in fact he was born into the first generation of Americans to be given middle names, a convention that had previously been viewed as too Old World, too pretentious). Fred gave up after a year, but not before contemplating an expensive renovation to the farmhouse with the nation's premiere architect, Alexander Jackson Davis, even though the farm was a complete failure.
The solution? His father bought Freddy another farm, this one on Staten Island. Fred liked that for awhile and experimented with scientific farming principles just coming into vogue... but then he got the travel bug, so his dad financed a trip to Europe, while all the while subsidizing the farm to the tune of $1,000 a year. (Perspective: Olmsted would be paid a salary of $2,500 when he won the commission to design and build Central Park.) When Freddy returned home, farming seemed boring. Traveling was more fun. So his neighbor, who just happened to be a major publisher, got him a contract to write a book a sprawling book that "reads like a book that has been dashed off in an unholy hurry" and which didn't sell about his European adventures. The awful book won him a job traveling through the South to write about the state of slavery and life in the South for this new little publication that would soon call itself the New York Times. On this assignment, finally, Frederick Law Olmsted did his first meaningful work, writing objectively about life in the South in the years preceding the Civil War. The writing would be influential not only in America, but later in Europe when the South was trying unsuccessfully to bring England into the war on its side. When Olmsted returned to his failing farm, he convinced his father to subsidize his stake in a new publishing company, and when that publishing company decided against publishing Omsted's next book, guess who paid to self-publish the book?
Around this time, Olmsted got involved in designing Central Park, a position that allowed him to find himself, and to impress enough people that, at the outset of the Civil War, he was asked to administer a new government agency charged with improving the health of northern soldiers and healing the wounded. From there he dabbled in a failed gold-mining venture before returning to landscape architecture and establishing himself as the public figure we admire. It is Olmsted, after all, who helped shape our American notions that open spaces are for the people, not for the elite; who helped plant the idea that natural treasures should be preserved as national parks (though that term had not yet been coined); and whose graceful landscape designs have more than endured they've flourished as seedlings planted in Olmsted's day have matured.
I can't figure out what lesson to draw from all this. Olmsted couldn't have succeeded in life without the hand-holding of his rich father. He wouldn't have accomplished such works of lasting value, or established so many ideas of lasting consequence if he came from a poorer family. His genius would have been wasted as a surveyor forced to work hard to actually pay his own bills. His life path seems impossible now. No one gets that many chances. Partially, he's a product of his times, when fewer people and fewer prominent citizens competed for a seemingly unending string of opportunities as the nation grew. But mainly it's because of his rich and over-indulgent father. (By the way, Freddy grew to be a nitpicky and often-cruel father, to his oldest stepson particularly, and an ungenerous administrator of his father's depleted estate after his death.)
But that's the difference between reading a biography and a Wikipedia entry, I guess. Reading this book, you get a full picture of the man, a man frustratingly immature and coddled for so many years, a man struck by personal tragedies I haven't enumerated here, and ultimately a man whose achievements warrant a full-length biography.

Investigators in Forsyth County pulled a body from Lake Lanier near Mary Alice Park and think that it may the remains of a man missing since February.
Reports say that the identity will be determined by the Forsyth County Coroner's office.
The body may be that of missing boater, George "Marty" Counts, who disappeared Feb. 11 on the lake, investigators said.
Counts, 47, of Tucker, was an avid fisherman and was believed to be operating his boat that evening when it was spotted going in circles with no one aboard, the state Department of Natural Resources previously said.
The boat ran out of gas and was on the bank when rangers arrived.
The initial search for Counts lasted several days and involved various agencies.

This is something that has bugged me for a while: I think cultural victory is incredibly hard to achieve, in fact almost if not really impossible. Now I know it can be done so don't come rushing in saying 'I have done it so there is not a problem' (I've done it myself also), but I still think it's too hard.
First off, completing 5 policy trees requires 30 policies. That's a pretty damn lot! Even if you subtract the odd free policies (Oracle and Sydney Opera House, is there one in Piety also?), it's still 27 you have to get. And even if you get to aquire all those policies, you have to build the massively expensive Utopia Project (and you can't use GE to rush it along).
One of the issues I have with CV is that it obviously appeals to small focused empires (3 cities or less) because otherwise, policy cost grows pretty quickly off the board. However, very small civs inevitably suffer on Science: Science is one of the only features in game that does not scale with empire size, so if you have few cities and hence low science output, you will have trouble keeping up with the big guys. One of the most powerful ways to help that is by going Rationalism, but Rationalism excludes Piety (and vice versa), and Piety seems like an almost necessary means to achieve Cultural Victory.
I've had some pretty bizarre experiences while trying to win my first One City challenge, a game mode where Cultural Victory seems like the obvious target. Most of the times, I perish because I fall behind on science. One time, I actually managed to finish all 30 policies and then started constructing the UP, only to loose when I was 4 turns from finishing it - because the game was out of time, and I was only #2 on the leader board. That was excruciating.
I had a similarly strange experience the other day, again playing OCC and aiming for a cultural victory. However, this time I played Babylon and went Rationalism to keep up with science (which actually worked, the combination of a very early Academy courtesy of free Great Scientist, and Great Library and Oracle made me stay ahead in science almost entire game, in spite of having only one city), only to realize in modern era that the loss of Piety ment there was no way I could achieve 30 Policies, even though I had 20+ World Wonders in my city (including all the important cultural ones except Sydney Opera House, which I couldn't build as I was not costal located). So a bit desperately I shifted horse and went for Science Victory, which I manged one turn before Korea would have finished their space ship! How bizarre is it that it's easier to win a Science victory than a cultural victory with only one city - a game setup that would hugely favor cultural victory?
So what do the rest of you think - is there a problem with Cultural victory - and if so, what needs to be changed? Personally I think Policy cost in late game is way too high - even with Broadcast Towers and Cristo Redentor, it's very slow to progress with policies in late game. Also, I think there should be more ways to get free policies and I think the Utopia Project needs to be cut down in price.


text: i stole one of those big ol military transport trucks which go great with my preorder army outfit but i cant store it D:! it says "the current vehicle your in can not be stored" also another slight problem is when i fill it up with gas the gas attendant gets stuck under it and when he stops pumping he gets crushed and the cops come after me. but my main question is there anywhere to store it. [[Also the truck im talking about is the one used to transport troops its in the very beginning of the game like 6-7 of them pass you when your with joe driving home. theyre only available in winter and its the only one i ever saw so i stole it.]]

With virtually no discussion, the regional high school district committee voted Monday to certify an $18.6 million operating budget for the coming year. Salary increases, funding for a school resource officer and a recently completed roof replacement project are all including in the spending package.
A bell sounds for the first of five short 20-minute lunch periods at the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School. It's 10:45 a.m., two faculty monitors stand by the doors, and here they come, approximately 114 teens from all grade levels looking carefully planned casual in baggy layers, sweatshirts, sandals, sneakers, clogs.
And it all happens in slow motion.
The Martha's Vineyard Regional High School committee voted this week to sell a $1.8 million bond as part of a plan to finance a nearly complete roof replacement at the high school. At their Monday meeting, the committee voted unanimously to sell the 10-year bond to UBS Financial Services of Boston.
For the first year, the district will pay the bond holders only the interest rate of 2.077 per cent, but starting in fiscal year 2015, the district will begin making payments on the bond. The first payment is due Sept. 15, 2014.
Only a few weeks into the job, and already regional high school vocational director Bob Drobneck was on a mission. It was a late Wednesday afternoon when Mr. Drobneck climbed into his black sedan, one of a handful of cars still remaining on school grounds at the end of the day, and pulled out onto the Edgartown-Vineyard Haven Road.
Regional high school students start classes later than usual this year, but the fall athletes are already on the fields preparing for the upcoming season. Mornings and evenings bring a flurry of activity to the quiet school campus as football, field hockey, cross country, soccer and golf shake off the summer haze and get down to business.
It's a time of tryouts, when varsity and junior varsity teams are created, and a time of camaraderie as teammates work through drills and circuits. It is also exhausting.
SAT scores at the Martha's Vineyard Regional High School were above the national average in 2012 in the three areas of critical reading, writing and math, high school guidance director Michael McCarthy said this week.
Mr. McCarthy gave his annual report on SAT scores to the high school district committee on Monday night.
On average, Vineyard students performed better than their state peers in all areas except math, where they were behind by five points, Mr. McCarthy said.
Preseason practice awaits high school athletes regardless of what sport they play, but only the fall warrants its own moniker: Hell Week, which began this year on August 23. After the relatively lazy days of summer comes a fast-paced week of tryouts and tune-ups. Dawn workouts are considered the standard of Hell Week (some groups prefer the early practices because they allow players to continue their summer jobs a little longer), but on any given day in the week leading up to school you'll find at least two teams on the fields in both the morning and the late afternoon.
Island Cup Victory Punctuates Season
By MAX HART
With less than four minutes left in the Martha's Vineyard-Nantucket football game Saturday, several Vineyard players snuck up behind special teams, linebacker and tight end coach Stephen Barbee and doused him with a large Gatorade bucket full of ice water.
The Nantucket varsity football team is a formidable foe. When the Whalers come to the Island tomorrow, they bring with them the state's best coach and a lead in wins for the Island competitive trophy. Nantucket leads the series 35-22-3 since the rivalry began in 1953.
Their weakness is that they aren't defending the trophy. And they are behind the Vineyard in wins and losses this fall. This has been a tough year for the Whalers. They are 3-5.

Available options may differ from photo. Design by Tom Dixon. Cast Glass- These heavyweight lights pay homage to an industrial process. A direct contrast to the artisan association of hand-blown glass, the process involves compressing molten glass into a hollow-core mold which is then annealed in a kiln. Rarely used in contemporary design, the process results in an incredibly hard-wearing object. Made from cast glass, the Tube bears the inclusions and imperfections of the manufacturing process.

Listing: UL Tom DixonBorn in Sfax, Tunisia in 1959, to a French/Latvian mother and an English father, Tom Dixon moved to England aged four and spent his school years in London. He dropped out of Chelsea School of Art to play bass in the band Funkapolitan before teaching himself welding and going on to produce furniture. Tom rose to prominence in the mid 1980's as "the talented untrained designer with a line in welded salvage furniture". He set up 'Space' as a creative think-tank and shop front for himself and other young designers. By the late 1980's, Tom Dixon's international reputation grew, he was approached by Italian furniture design company, Cappellini, for whom he desinged the Iconic "S" chair. In the 1990's, he became a household name and Jack, his polypropylene "sitting, stacking, lighting thing" designed for his own company Eurolounge was a symbol of the age. Tom Dixon's appointment as Head of the UK design studio at the furniture retailer Habitat in 1998 was considered controversial. He came from a self-employed background instead of a corporate culture and was never considered "establishment". Tom Dixon led the company through its biggest makeover and quickly won recognition by becoming Head of International Design in 1999 and Creative Director in 2001. He was the public face of a collective team responsible for rejuvenating the Habitat brand, while maintaining Terence Conran's dream of enriching everyday life through simple, modern design and creating a shopping experience that is theatrical and intimate. In 2000, Tom's work was recognized by the award of an OBE by Her Majesty The Queen. His works have also been acquired by the world's most famous museums and are now in permanent collections across the globe including Victoria and Albert Museum, Museums of Modern Art New York and Tokyo and Centre Beaubourg (Pompidou). "Honestly, I can't remember ever holding an ambition to be a designer. It just slowly came over me as I rejected notions of being an artist or, a craftsman. Even today I prefer the idea of being an industrialist."- Tom Dixon. See other lights/products from Tom DixonTom DixonEstablished in 2002, Tom Dixon is a British design and manufacturing company of lighting and furniture. With a recognised commitment to innovation and a mission to revive the British furniture industry, the Tom Dixon brand is inspired by the unique heritage, the individualistic innovation and the robust, no nonsense engineering of these small islands. In 2004 Proventus, the Swedish-based private investment company, teamed up with Tom Dixon to establish Design Research, a design and product development holding company.

Beautiful fixture!
We love the look of the light! It has the industrial charm we were looking for but fitting for a home. It is unfortunately too big for our space since our ceilings are only 8'. For a higher ceiling it would look great! Maybe the designer will make some smaller scale fixtures in the future. By:Julie J. , Homeowner (berkeley)

So much well after speaking briefly with my next -- yesterday afternoon we learned a privately held debt in the US has reached thirteen trillion dollars.
And that number continues to rise and -- -- as a reason foundation director of economic research welcome back to you.
-- got cut off because the president had the nerve to interrupt but time let's have our conversation thirteen trillion in privately held better consumer debt.
Yes that's household -- and -- -- it's really split up but that's basically credit card debts and mortgages and this is getting that not nearly enough attention as a big problem with the economy I -- talk about monetary policy talk about housing policy those are important things is it you know whether -- not -- to stimulate the economy NI how much -- income inequality -- those those are important topics discussed but.
All underlying all that is the fact that we have a lot of -- on household balance sheets so individuals are consuming as much one of the reasons what you might see Best Buy sales down you know during the bubble people are going to buying appliances are fine.
-- screen TVs with the amount of debt that they have.
There's not buying its models how do you motivate people -- to.
Either pay down their debt or throat out capex doesn't -- I mean.
And part of the product part of the problem is is that people have lowering income so since 2009 move over this past presidency you've had real median income has declined about 5%.
So we will have less money.
Which means that there are now turning to credit cards and -- we saw that actually start to decline between 2009 and 2000 tenants in.
-- 2.5 percent all the way up in the 2011 but over the past year and a half.
That has begun to increase particularly consumer credit consumer credits gone up about 7%.
Since the summer 2000 -- You know and I think about rising debt lets you think of our own national debt and here are approaching the ridiculous on sixteen trillion dollars million an irritating is that ridiculous sums up -- yet did did.
Good correction on their we -- seeing what's going on in Europe so I mean is there.
-- problem is there a threat of consumer debt becoming a bubble I've -- it's for that term being used to describe loan debt student loan debt.
-- think I think the problem is that we have consumer debt that drives bubbles so we have a lot of concern and so a lot of student loan debt that will build up.
To the point where now we just inflated the cost getting a college degree and so.
You you're going to have fewer people going to college as a result which may be good thing if they're going to trade schools focusing on the stuff but if that if -- -- Counting on for recovery these people borrowing more trying to lower interest rates whether or not to Federal Reserve or whoever is trying to push down interest rates so that we can borrow more cheaply and we and that's what drives the economy forward if that's the goal.
That is a bubble that's there's a huge part of what drove the previous bubble -- -- this and we'll bubbles even before that so I I think that that the fact that we're seeing.
But consumer debt -- slowdown and its decline it's deleveraging process should be concerned.
And I think that consumer credit that.
That -- credit cards going up that that should not be the baseline -- -- -- likely you're seeing in the mortgage industry with banks stepping in the federal government coming in it's obviously very controversial to try to kind of bail people out of these mortgages that they can't afford.
So -- my personal views that I think that housing that needs to decline a lot faster than it is right now it's slowing things down and we could've actually probably cleared out a lot of the toxic debt that's and housing a couple of years ago.
It's understandable the various cover perhaps that we've tried to use to to help homeowners and because if you're homeowner that's gonna lose your house that that really sucks.
And I can understand Paulson just wanting to USA the person the moment but the reality is now -- dragged that out for a long time we're gonna have another three to five years.
Of this decline we need to get rid of toxic that a lot faster otherwise -- not -- -- real recovery this is a great discussion have to come back and give us updates -- this modest progress thanks financing.
