This hotel offers simple comforts but is still among the top
three or four places to stay in town.
In 1824 it was built just outside Kirkwall by a retired sea captain, and became
Orkney's first hospital in 1845. The hotel has character and is a historical part
of Orkney's History.
Today's owners Gifford Leslie and Robert Dawson provide a warm welcome and a comfortable guest
rooms each with a shower-only bathroom. The property is newly refurbished and is fresh and inviting. Cost-conscious
meals are served in the small restaurant and bar. Fully licensed to sell alcohol, the hotel attracts both locals and visitors.
The West End Hotel, in many ways,
is the ideal of both old and new.
Note: Prices are a guide only and may change on a daily basis.

Monday to Friday 9am - 5pm

No, it's not normal, there must be something wrong. Check this:
CPU speed = at what speed is your CPU running ? Is turbo mode enabled ?
Visibilty (view distance) = lower the better (i'm using 1600)
Video Memory = set to "default" to use full video memory
Anisitropic Filter = impact > low
Anti Aliasing = high impact > low
Postprocess = high impact > off
blood = low
Your rig looks a bit more powerfull than mine and i'm running A2AO on "very high" (AA,AF normal) at 1920x1200. With Vsync on, the FPS usually are between 30 and 60 (max).

So earlier, I had this major brain fart(and my comp was acting up too) and I couldn't log into my account. I tried everything — resetting the password, different pw's that I might have used. In the process of that, I made the horrible mistake of making a second account to just pm an admin(which I did. Twice.). So, I guess I'm just making this thread so I can say that I only did it cause I had no other choice. The email I had originally made my account with was hacked into a while back and I had to inform an admin of my situation. However, just a few minutes ago, I remembered my password and now I'm just typing this message here to say that if my new, temp account is deleted/made a guest, it won't put me in trouble would it.
FYI, my other account is "Elbade". I just know this was a major boo-boo that I made and I'm hoping that a simple deletion can be arranged to make it all better.
FYI 2, the admin I pmd twice about this; once for a requesting of new password, but a second time just telling them that I fixed it myself. Anyways, the admin was Contra. So, Contra, if you view this thread, would you please do what I aforementioned in the pm and just delete my other account. I am truly sorry about this in the first place.

Hey !
It's been quite a while since I've posted anything and I guess is time to get back.
Here are a few anatomical sketches I did at the end of last year , beginning of 2012.
And Eddie , Zbrush and Marmoset realtime renders.
I hope you like it.
I'll be back soon with some newer work.

very clean,
The torso seems a bit thick, might be the way you envisioned the abs. Still overall really nicely done.
Love the bust
Thank you guys! Glad you've liked it.
Finally , after a long break , I've managed to do some more personal work.
This is cpt.Kurk, mostly inspired by Mass Effect , as I've started it while back for the challenge on cgfeedback, but never managed to get it done...until now .

Beautiful work, as usual!
Fantastic work, but I think its too desaturated. Your polypaint is way too accomplished to just desaturate away.

I'm glad it's Ask Mindy Day because I have a question that's been bothering me for a few days now. I bought some shower gel to take to the gym so I wouldn't have to worry about any soap related shower incidents. But the stuff says it contains extra oxygen and I'm worried that I might be getting too much. How do I know if I'm getting too much oxygen?

Whenever motorcyclists gather for a session of bench-racing, comments aimed toward big-bore sportbikes often carry a bit of arm's-length awe: these are potent, high-powered machines and not for the faint of heart. However, such tales have arguably helped build the reputation of Honda's CBR1000RR, a full-on sporting literbike that shatters class stereotypes with its surprisingly accommodating manners. Thanks to its magnum-level performance along with a near-perfect blend of streetability, versatility, rider feel and balanced character, the CBR1000RR has for years held high the class standard for well-rounded capabilities. Of course, it helps greatly that the CBR1000RR is sized and weighs in alongside 600cc-class sportbikes, but that's a longstanding family trait.
The motoring press and sportbike enthusiasts alike lavished praises on this first iteration of what grew to become an ongoing series, and the accolades continued flowing as successive models advanced that basic concept, which was—and continues to be—so capable and rewarding. We now see these endearing and enduring qualities carry forward to this day, embodied in the 2012 CBR1000RR. In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the CBR-RR and in keeping with the original concept, the 2012 CBR1000RR continues to supply exemplary liter-class sportbike performance, pumping out huge midrange horsepower and torque for class-leading real-world muscle in a great-handling high-performance package unmatched by the competition in its overall balance.
Starting with a tried and proven four-piece Fine Die-Cast twin-spar aluminum frame, Honda's development team focused their efforts on incorporating innovative chassis components, specifically a new-concept rear shock, Big Piston Fork, plus new 12-spoke cast aluminum wheels that provide even more rigidity. In doing so, they were able to markedly expand the CBR1000RR's handling prowess and enhance its braking and traction characteristics. In addition, newly designed bodywork following the layered fairing concept aids aerodynamic flow to create a large still-air pocket around the rider while also helping draw air through the cooling system. An integrated chin spoiler in the nose also reduces aerodynamic lift at speed, thereby improving handling, and the overall package lends a more aggressive appearance.
The main objectives in the further development of the CBR1000RR's suspension setup included: smoother suspension action, improved rider feel, and increased grip and traction. To achieve those goals, the 2012 CBR1000RR rear suspension system still features Honda's acclaimed single-shock Unit Pro-Link® configuration, but now it introduces the first Balance-Free Rear Shock on a production motorcycle, an advancement developed in conjunction with world-leading suspension specialist Showa that has patent protection pending.
As before, CBR1000RR owners can also opt for Honda's advanced electronically controlled Combined ABS braking system, which offers the confidence of antilock braking while remaining so unobtrusive that it satisfies even the most committed sport riders. Updates to this system result in a modified front-brake effect better suited to sport riding: now when the rear brake pedal is actuated, there's less initial braking application from the front brake compared to the previous-generation setup, followed by more-progressive front-brake application as brake pedal pressure increases.
Which is not to say the CBR1000RR isn't amazingly potent; witness the efforts of John McGuiness at the Isle of Man races in July 2011, where he set a new course record aboard the previous generation CBR1000RR. This awe-inspiring example of racing capabilities on the most extreme of road courses stands as bold testimony for a machine designed from the get-go with both a sound concept and strong execution—no need for the interventions of traction control or harsh-onset wheelie control used in other machines. The CBR1000RR rewards riders who appreciate this machine's unparalleled feeling of transparent connectedness, and who prefer to rely on their own skills as a method of traction control. Time and time again in comparison tests the world over, the CBR1000RR posts laps times quicker than its competition equipped with electronic interventions, and the reason is simple: Fast laps on a track, like good times on the street, have more to do with a machine's overall balance and rideability than anything else. That's the secret to the CBR1000RR's long-time popularity.

CHEF JEFF: Spelling comfort with S-O-U-P
How do you spell comfort on a cold winter day? I'll bet you would get a lot of answers to this question. But in my opinion, if it's not S-O-U-P, you're missing out on the ultimate winter comfort food.
How do you spell comfort on a cold winter day?
I'll bet you would get a lot of answers to this question.
On the other hand, there would be many people who might reply in a like manner with responses for comfort classics such as meatloaf, mac 'n' cheese, mashed potatoes, lasagna, chili or pizza.
But in my opinion, if it's not S-O-U-P, you're missing out on the ultimate winter comfort food. (Actually, in my case, you probably could add stew, since some of my soups are thicker than most soups.)
And with winter hitting hard this past weekend — remember Blizzard Aaron, with its snow, 40 to 50 mph winds and accompanying below-zero wind chills — you don't have to guess about how I responded.
On Sunday, I threw together one of my favorites, Czechoslovakian Cabbage Soup. An added shot of Tabasco made it just right after an afternoon walk with my dog, Sweetie.
The recipe for that soup, which I found almost 20 years ago in a Country magazine, has never let me down on even the coldest of days. I remember an ice-fishing adventure on Lake of the Woods in the mid-'90s, when the temperature approached 20 below zero and the soup took the chill off like nothing else could.
Another reason I like the cabbage-kraut soup so much is that like other broth-based soups, it's not calorie- and fat-laden yet it fills me up and keeps me satisfied longer.
And this time of the year, when dipping temperatures make me hungrier and outdoor activities are somewhat limited, it's easy to put on a couple of extra pounds if you're not careful.
Another soup that I like when the winter weather turns nasty is one that features black beans and smoked sausage or bologna. It's a recipe that wouldn't be out of place with the participants in the annual Bologna Cook-Off and Benefit for the Minto (N.D.) Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, which starts at 7 p.m. Friday in the Minto Community Center. For info, call Chris Misialek, at (701) 248-3978.
Healthy soup tips
If the cold weather has you considering making a pot of soup, here are a few tips:
• Don't pour water from cooking vegetables down the sink: There are vitamins in there. Save the water in the refrigerator or freezer, adding any leftover vegetables after the meal. At the end of the week, use the water and the vegetables to start a batch of soup.
• Freeze the liquids from canned mushrooms or vegetables; use it in soups or stews later.
• For richer soup stock from beef or pork bones, roast them first. Trim meat off to use in the soup, leaving meaty bones. Chop bones in chunks, using a mallet and cleaver if necessary. Place in a roasting pan with any vegetables, such as carrots and onions, and cook in a 400-degree oven for 30 to 45 minutes, until well-browned. Place bones and roasted vegetables in soup pot, cover with water and cook slowly for several hours. If there are any juices in the roasting pan, defat them and use them, too.
• For flavorful vegetable soup, use tomato juice or vegetable juice cocktail instead of water.
• Don't oversalt. Many canned broths are high in salt, so taste them before adding more. And saltiness can concentrate as soups cook down, so wait until the end of cooking time to add salt.
• If your hot soup ends up slightly salty, add a whole, peeled potato to the soup and simmer for about 15 minutes to absorb salt. Remove the potato and serve.
• Eliminate fat from soup by dropping ice cubes into the pot. As you stir, the fat will cling to the cubes.
• Soups should only simmer (never boil) when cooking.
• To remove excessive salt from soup, drop in a sliced raw potato.
• To thicken your soup, take some of the cooked vegetables out of the soup and puree in the blender. Then, return to the original soup mixture.
• Vegetables added to a soup taste better if you saute them first.
• Soups and stews always taste better if made a day or two in advance and reheated just before serving.
On last thing: Don't forget, it's National Soup Month.

The Livingstone College women's basketball team played a close game against Winston-Salem State University
(10-11, 5-6), but the Lady Rams won 45-42 at the Gaines Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The Lady Blue Bears took the first half 24-23 at the free throw line by connecting six-of-eight shots (75 percent) compared to the Lady Rams'
three-of-seven shots (42.9 percent).
The Lady Blue Bears (7-13, 3-8) also played very aggressive in the paint with Tyesha Tharpe leading the Lady Blue Bears with 12 points and five rebounds. Jasmine Murray's 10 points contributed to the Lady Blue Bears outscoring the Lady Rams in the paint 28-20. Murray also pulled down five rebounds.
With the game being played in the paint, Kelcyn Manurs, a 5-5 guard, grabbed a game high eight rebounds.
With under two minutes to play the game was up for grabs, but three crucial turnovers made by the Lady Blue Bears worked in the Lady Rams favor.

Pope Francis: The first witnesses of the Resurrection are women
Bring forth this hope, be anchored in this hope, the hope that comes from heaven! Be anchored and bring forth the hope!
The first witnesses of the Resurrection are women. This is beautiful, and this is the mission of women, of mothers and women, to give witness to their children and grandchildren that Christ is Risen! Mothers go forward with this witness! What matters to God is our heart, if we are open to Him, if we are like trusting children. But this also leads us to reflect on how in the Church and in the journey of faith, women have had and still have a special role in opening doors to the Lord, in following him and communicating his face, because the eyes of faith always need the simple and profound look of love.
VATICAN CITY (Catholic Online) - In his Wednesday General Audience, Pope Francis specifically addressed the primary role and vocation of women as witnesses of the Resurrection of Jesus and its profound implications both then and now. We offer the Vatican translation in its entirety for our readers below
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Today we turn to the Catechism of the Year of Faith. In the Creed we repeat this phrase: "He rose again on the third day, in accordance with the Scriptures". This is the very event that we are celebrating: the Resurrection of Jesus, the center of the Christian message that has resounded since the beginning and has been handed down so that it may reach us today.
Saint Paul writes to the Christians of Corinth: "For I handed on to you .what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures; that he appeared to Cephas, then to the Twelve"(1 Cor 15:3-5).
This brief confession of faith announces the Paschal Mystery, with the first appearances of the Risen Christ to Peter and the Twelve: the Death and Resurrection of Jesus is the heart of our hope. Without this faith in the Death and Resurrection of Jesus our hope would be weak, but it wouldn'0t even be hope, the Death and Resurrection of Jesus is the heart of our hope. The Apostle says: "If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain; you are still in your sins" (v. 17).
Unfortunately, there have often been attempts to obscure faith in the Resurrection of Jesus, and doubts have crept in even among believers themselves. A watered down faith, as we would say, not a strong faith. This is because of superficiality, sometimes because of indifference, occupied by a thousand things considered more important than the faith, or because of a purely horizontal vision of life.
But it is the Resurrection that gives us the greatest hope, because it opens our lives and the life of the world to the eternal future of God, to full happiness, to the certainty that evil, sin, death can be defeated. And this leads us to live everyday realities with more confidence, to face them with courage and commitment. The Resurrection of Christ shines a new light on these daily realities. The Resurrection of Christ is our strength!
But how was the truth of faith in Christ's Resurrection transmitted? There are two kinds of witness in the New Testament: some are in the form of the profession of the faith, namely, synthetic formulas that indicate the center of the faith. Instead, others are in the form of an account of the event of the Resurrection and the facts connected to it.
The form of the profession of faith, for example, is what we have just heard, or that of the Letter to the Romans where Paul writes: "for, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved "(10.9). From the earliest days of the Church, faith in the Mystery of Death and Resurrection of Jesus is steadfast and clear.
Today, however, I would like to dwell the second, on testimony in the form of the accounts that we find in the Gospels. First, we note that the first witnesses to this event were the women. At dawn, they go to the tomb to anoint the body of Jesus, and find the first sign: the empty tomb (Mk 16:1). This is followed by an encounter with a Messenger of God who proclaims: Jesus of Nazareth, the Crucified One, he is not here, he is risen (cf. vv. 5-6).
The women are driven by love and know how to accept this proclamation with faith: they believe, and immediately transmit it, they do not keep it for themselves. They cannot contain the joy of knowing that Jesus is alive, the hope that fills their heart. This should also be the same in our lives. Let us feel the joy of being Christian!
We believe in the Risen One who has conquered evil and death! Let us also have the courage to "go out" to bring this joy and light to all the places of our lives! The Resurrection of Christ is our greatest certainty, it is our most precious treasure! How can we not share this treasure, this beautiful certainty with others! It's not just for us it's to be transmitted, shared with others this is our testimony!
Another element. In the professions of faith of the New Testament, only men are remembered as witnesses of the Resurrection, the Apostles, but not the women. This is because, according to the Jewish Law of the time, women and children were not considered reliable, credible witnesses.
In the Gospels, however, women have a primary, fundamental role. Here we can see an argument in favor of the historicity of the Resurrection: if it were a invented, in the context of that time it would not have been linked to the testimony of women. Instead, the evangelists simply narrate what happened: the women were the first witnesses.
This tells us that God does not choose according to human criteria: the first witnesses of the birth of Jesus are the shepherds, simple and humble people, the first witnesses of the Resurrection are women. This is beautiful, and this is the mission of women, of mothers and women, to give witness to their children and grandchildren that Christ is Risen! Mothers go forward with this witness! What matters to God is our heart, if we are open to Him, if we are like trusting children.
But this also leads us to reflect on how in the Church and in the journey of faith, women have had and still have a special role in opening doors to the Lord, in following him and communicating his face, because the eyes of faith always need the simple and profound look of love.
The Apostles and disciples find it harder to believe in the Risen Christ, not the women however! Peter runs to the tomb, but stops before the empty tomb; Thomas has to touch the wounds of the body of Jesus with his hands. In our journey of faith it is important to know and feel that God loves us, do not be afraid to love: faith is professed with the mouth and heart, with the word and love.
After the apparitions to women, there were others: Jesus becomes present in a new way: He is the Crucified One, but his body is glorious; He did not return to an earthly life, but a new condition. At first they did not recognize him, and only through his words and deeds were their eyes opened: the encounter with the Risen Lord transforms, it gives new strength to faith, an unshakable foundation. The Risen Christ also reveals Himself to us with many signs: Sacred Scripture, the Eucharist, the other Sacraments, charity, these gestures of love bring a ray of the Risen One.
Let us be enlightened by the Resurrection of Christ, let us be transformed by His power, so that through us the signs of death give way to signs of life in the world! I see that there are many young people in the Square! Young boys and girls, to you I say bring forth this certainty to the world: the Lord is Alive and walks beside us on our life's journey!
Bring forth this hope, be anchored in this hope, the hope that comes from heaven! Be anchored and bring forth the hope! You witnesses of Christ bring forth hope to this world that is aged by wars and sin! Go forward young people!

Energy efficiency critical for future, engineers say at Conejo gathering
Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and IoES Professor Rajit Gadh was quoted in a Ventura County Star article about a technology symposium held October 4th.
Technology that could transform energy production and consumption in the future was the focus of a gathering of engineers and entrepreneurs in Westlake Village on Thursday.
The Buenaventura chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers held its second annual Energy Efficiency Symposium at the Westlake Village Inn featuring local companies and special guest speakers.
Karl Geiger, of Moorpark, who chairs the institute's Buenaventura section, said the event was a way to bring people together to share what they are doing and explore ways of advancing energy efficiency.
"You are looking at the people who are making the future," Geiger said.
"People are heedless in how they use electricity. There needs to be price signals in the marketplace, which means if electricity becomes more expensive, people will find ways to cut back. We don't have that in place for the electrical infrastructure of the country right now, and we need to move in that direction," he said. "The world needs to be smarter."
Keynote speaker Rajit Gadh, director of the UCLA Smart Grid Research Center, told the gathering that better control is critical for grid operators in order to manage the ebb and flow of supply and demand.
"Utilities are moving towards market-oriented pricing," Gadh said. "The consumerization of the electric grid is inevitable. It's going to happen."
Gadh cited the example of a utility company in Texas that has reduced the cost of electricity from 24 cents per kilowatt-hour to 6 cents per kilowatt-hour after 6 p.m. The move is changing behavior and the way customers are using electricity, he said.
Gadh and his team at the Smart Grid Research Center is involved in making devices that will use "automated demand response" protocols and contribute to more efficient energy consumption.

Milwaukee entered the day trailing St. Louis by 4 1/2 games for the final NL wild-card spot, a long shot that left no margin for error.
Shaun Marcum (6-4) went six innings for his first victory since returning from an elbow problem, allowing only four hits, including Joey Votto's RBI double.
Norichika Aoki homered to start a three-run third inning off Bronson Arroyo (12-9) and added an RBI double. Braun, the NL's Most Valuable Player last season as the Brewers won the NL Central, hit a two-run shot in the seventh off Logan Ondrusek.
The Reds have clinched the Central title.
