Whether drawn with a pencil, sculpted by hand, or rendered in a computer, animation is a cornerstone of modern moviemaking.
Shi'Asia Jones's curator insight, November 19, 2013 10:11 PM
This website is helpful because it gives visual of the techniques that animator use when creating movies. There are also videos that show in depth processes of how Disney's Sleeping Beauty was restored. It also describes that animation takes months and is an extremely long process. However, animators can create amazing things and pair it with voice overs to make great movies.

Bush goes on his first date with voters
Thursday 10 June 1999
Those are the enemies that lie in wait for George W Bush as he sets out on the campaign trail this weekend, beginning the long journey that could lead to his selection as Republican candidate for President. The Governor of Texas is the big favourite. He has huge funds, staff in every state, an army of money men, admen, press advisers, strategists and pollsters, smart young women with cellular phones and young men with clipboards. He also has a handsome poll lead - handsome indeed for a man who has not definitively said that he will run and who has so far confined himself to private meetings in the Governor's Mansion in downtown Austin.
Now he must take his case out to the world, or at least to Iowa and New Hampshire. Those states kick off the electoral calendar next year. He must win there if he is to have a shot at the White House.
Seven of the Republican candidates will be in Iowa this week, most of them gravitating to the World Pork Expo in Des Moines. Before he can get elected to the White House, Mr Bush must beat the other Republican candidates, and he is already under fire. Dan Quayle, the former Vice- President, is one of several Republicans who believe that Mr Bush can be outflanked on his ideological right. In the past few weeks Mr Quayle has repeatedly raised conservative social issues with the aim of drawing Mr Bush.
The Texas Governor has been slow to express his positions on these social issues, with good reason. This is not the time for a detailed list of policy prescriptions. "It's like a first date," says Tom Korologos, a Republican consultant who is a supporter of Mr Bush's rival, Elizabeth Dole. The voters will want to size him up, but not make final judgements.
Mr Quayle, best known for his imaginative mangling of the English language, may not seem the most likely challenger. But he has support on the conservative right, and his strategy is a taste of what Mr Bush will get over the next few weeks. Conservatives will try to draw him into small battles on these big issues. The billionaire Steve Forbes, Senator Bob Smith, the religious leader Gary Bauer, Mr Quayle, the maverick nationalist Pat Buchanan, the former Tennessee Governor Lamar Alexander and the talk show host Alan Keyes are all seeking the vote of the right, and if they can score small victories now it could have big results later.
The polls show Mr Bush with a wide lead over his opponents in Iowa. A polling initiative, Iowa Project 2000, found 36.7 per cent of likely Iowa Republicans backing him in March, with 16.4 per cent behind Elizabeth Dole and roughly 8 per cent each for Messrs Quayle, Buchanan and Alexander. It looks as if the race is for second and third place.
Only one of Mr Bush's rivals can probably emerge as the standard-bearer of the right. His massive and highly efficient fund-raising performance is siphoning away cash, leaving some on very shaky financial ground. Mr Quayle is already under pressure: next month the Republican leadership in his home state, Indiana, will hold a massive fund-raiser - for Mr Bush. Mr Alexander is running so short of funds that he has laid off some staff, and is pinning all his hopes on a good performance in Iowa.
Mr Quayle is using the number of party endorsements that Mr Bush has received as a weapon against him. "We cannot follow the campaign strategy of the party establishment in Washington any more than we can be guided by the moral leadership offered by the Clinton administration," he said in a recent campaign speech. The Bush name will also be turned against George W, drawing on conservative dislike of his father, the former President.
Mr Bush needs to build and keep a coalition of voters from right and centre. His ideology is built around the idea of "compassionate conservat-ism". He will sketch some broad outlines in his Iowa speeches this weekend.
But the conservatives want the primaries to be about ideology and clear choices. And Mr Bush's rivals will hope that the "first date" metaphor works. "Most first dates don't live up to expectations," said David Kochel, Mr Alexander's campaign manager.

Midtown's Promenade II gets multiple bids
Real Estate Notes
- Douglas Sams
- Commercial Real Estate Editor- Atlanta Business Chronicle
- Email | Twitter
Cousins Properties Inc., Carter, Brookdale Group, Granite Properties and Regent Partners LLC are among those submitting bids on the 38-story Midtown office tower Promenade II, according to people familiar with the process.
Owner Beacon Capital Partners LLC of Boston, which bought Charter Hall's U.S. assets for $1.7 billion, is spinning off some of the portfolio, including Promenade II, because Atlanta is not one of its core markets. A transaction could close on the building by the end of the year.
The sale is taking place amid continued uncertainty in the global economy and a lack of economic stability that could hinder the availability of capital and make debt more expensive.
Promenade II, though, is still a trophy building in Midtown Atlanta, one of the Southeast's most-established markets. Bids are expected to reach at least $150 a square foot, or about $116 million, and possibly up to $175 a foot, or $135 million, for the 774,000-square-foot building. Earlier this month, New York-based real estate investment manager Clarion Partners LLC placed its 19-story Buckhead office tower The Lenox Building on the market, another sign that investor demand for office properties might be improving.
Midtown has already seen a few notable transactions in the past year, including a partnership involving North American Properties Inc. to acquire the 25-story 271 17th Street building, home to a big regional office for BB&T Corp. (NYSE: BBT).
Jones Lang LaSalle Inc. has represented Charter Hall in lease negotiations and, alongside Eastdil Secured, won the assignment to market Promenade II.

PULLMAN, Wash. — Invoking the spirit of "Star Trek" in a scholarly article entitled "To Boldly Go," two scientists contend human travel to Mars could happen much more quickly and cheaply if the missions are made one-way. They argue that it would be little different from early settlers to North America, who left Europe with little expectation of return.
"The main point is to get Mars exploration moving," said Dirk Schulze-Makuch of Washington State University, who wrote the article in the latest "Journal of Cosmology" with Paul Davies of Arizona State University. The colleagues state — in one of 55 articles in the issue devoted to exploring Mars — that humans must begin colonizing another planet as a hedge against a catastrophe on Earth.
Mars is a six-month flight away, possesses surface gravity, an atmosphere, abundant water, carbon dioxide and essential minerals. They propose the missions start by sending two two-person teams, in separate ships, to Mars. More colonists and regular supply ships would follow.
The technology already exists, or is within easy reach, they wrote.
An official for NASA said the space agency envisions manned missions to Mars in the next few decades, but that the planning decidedly involves round trips.
President Obama informed NASA last April that he "'believed by the mid-2030s that we could send humans to orbit Mars and safely return them to Earth. And that a landing would soon follow,'" said agency spokesman Michael Braukus.
No where did Obama suggest the astronauts be left behind.
"We want our people back," Braukus said.
Retired Apollo 14 astronaut Ed Mitchell, who walked on the Moon, was also critical of the one-way idea.
"This is premature," Mitchell wrote in an e-mail. "We aren't ready for this yet."
Davies and Schulze-Makuch say it's important to realize they're not proposing a "suicide mission."
"The astronauts would go to Mars with the intention of staying for the rest of their lives, as trailblazers of a permanent human Mars colony," they wrote, while acknowledging the proposal is a tough sell for NASA, with its intense focus on safety.
They think the private sector might be a better place to try their plan.
"What we would need is an eccentric billionaire," Schulze-Makuch said. "There are people who have the money to put this into reality."
Indeed, British tycoon Richard Branson, PayPal founder Elon Musk and Amazon.com Inc. CEO Jeff Bezos are among the rich who are involved in private space ventures.
Isolated humans in space have long been a staple of science fiction movies, from "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" to "2001: A Space Odyssey" to a flurry of recent movies such as "Solaris" and "Moon." In many of the plots, the lonely astronauts fall victim to computers, madness or aliens.
Psychological profiling and training of the astronauts, plus constant communication with Earth, will reduce debilitating mental strains, the two scientists said.
"They would in fact feel more connected to home than the early Antarctic explorers," according to the article.
But the mental health of humans who spent time in space has been extensively studied. Depression can set in, people become irritated with each other, and sleep can be disrupted, the studies have found. The knowledge that there is no quick return to Earth would likely make that worse.
Davies is a physicist whose research focuses on cosmology, quantum field theory, and astrobiology. He was an early proponent of the theory that life on Earth may have come from Mars in rocks ejected by asteroid and comet impacts.

Air France to cut 2,000 jobs: report
PARIS (Reuters) - A recruitment freeze at Franco-Dutch carrier Air France-KLM (AIRF.PA) will lead to 2,000 job cuts in 2012 as the carrier looks to save about 800 million euros ($1.04 billion) annually over the next three years, French economic daily La Tribune reported on Wednesday.
The airline, which is 15.7 percent-owned by the French state and 9.8 percent-owned by employees, spends about a third of its revenue on staff, its biggest expense, compared with about a quarter for Lufthansa (LHAG.DE).
The 2,000 cuts would go alongside more than 4,000 positions that have not been renewed over the last 15 months, the paper said, citing several sources.
It said the hiring freeze plan, which would be across all departments, will be presented to the board of directors on January 11.
($1 = 0.7721 euros)

You know how people are just like "In everything give thanks", it's so easy to say. Like it just rolls off their tongues like "look at me here quoting all these Bible scriptures and sturvs" and you're just there like Ugh-________- . It's the worst thing to hear when you've just been through hell trust me. Or when people say it's the will of God for something bad to have happened and you're just there asking how? I can't even begin to explain. The dilemma of trying to figure out how people can think that God who is so good will let such happen to you. It's confusing.
2014 has been an "I have no words to describe it" year. It was so good till September when my sister fell Ill. If you know me you'll know I literally adore my sister. I was at the hospital every weekend staying over some times and most of the time she wasn't even awake. Eventually she passed on. I almost died. I prayed to die. I just wanted to be with my sister and of course there were the "In everything give thanks" people. My God. Then the "it's God's will" people. I almost ran mad trying to figure out how God could have taken my best friend from me and think that it was okay. The morning of her burial myself, my brother and parents came together to pray and as we sang praises to God we cried. The pain was so much but we should give thanks right? To be honest I was angry and sad beyond words, giving thanks was the last thing I wanted to be doing.
The only thing that seemed to be working after that was my business "Fiber Rose". I thanked God for that. If he thought taking Ore was okay then He was at least doing something. And one of the days while I was doing that the Holy Spirit stops me and says "Has it ever occurred to you that the reason your business keeps flourishing is cause you give thanks for it?"
That's when every thing changed. I started giving God thanks. Even when I was crying cause I missed my sister I still managed to say thank You to God. At least she wasn't in pain that was one thing to thank Him for. I thanked Him that I knew her, had her and loved her because she is a huge part of what I am today. I kept trying to look for little things to thank Him for and to be honest I'm the better for it. I don't fully understand why I happened but I'm happy. I don't want to die but live long enough to fulfill my dreams and even my sister's.
It might seem like everything isn't working but trust me something is. God said on everything give thanks because He knew there will be times where we just can't and that's when He wants us to even more. I'm not saying it'll be easy. It'll be hard and it'll hurt but God sees what we go through and He'll find a way to ease our pain. Look for the little things… that you can see, that you are where you are, that one thing is working and you'll start to see 1,2,3 and many other things that are working. Everything else might not compare to what you lost but you still have everything else to be grateful for. And then watch God make everything else become something that you're really thankful for. I've been there, I understand. And if you ever just need to rant, let me know. We all a need that some times :)
I love you
God loves you more <3
Aunty Hotstuff <3 <3

Vermont National Guard Has New Commander
By Pat Bradley
The Vermont National Guard has a new commander.
Brigadier General Thomas Drew took command of the Vermont Air and Army National Guard in a ceremony Friday morning at the Guard's Green Mountain Armory in Colchester.
Drew, who lives in Florence in Rutland County, took over as state adjutant general from Major General Michael Dubie, who is moving to Colorado to take the No. 2 post in the U.S. Northern Command, which is responsible for overall homeland defense.
Drew will serve in the post until next winter when the Legislature will elect a permanent replacement.
The ceremony culminated with the passing of the Green Mountain Boy Flag from Dubie to Drew, symbolizing the transition of leadership.

The 2010 Wolcott Family Society reunion will be held at the Publik House Inn and adjacent Country Motor Lodge at Sturbridge, Massachusetts, 13 through 15 August, 2010. The location was selected due to its proximity to Brookfield, where the Woolcott family lived from 1687 until the mid-1800s. Preliminary plans include registration and Bar-B-Q dinner Friday afternoon and evening. Saturday will be a presentation of the latest results of the Wolcott/Walcott DNA project, a business meeting, choice of a tour of Wolcott family sites at nearby Brookfield or visit to Old Sturbridge Village - a recreated village of the 1830s, and a social hour and banquet in the evening. Those wishing to stay Sunday can attend church and/or visit Old Sturbridge Village. Hosts for the event are Charles W. Wolcott and John B. Wolcott. Further information will be posted on the Wolcott Family web pages http://www.wolcottfamily.com under Wolcott Family Society as it becomes available.

Fundamentally, SDN is still mostly about network plumbing. While plumbing may be useful to tinker with, what you can do with your plumbing is far more intriguing. A rigid interpretation of SDN confines it to Layers 2 and 3, and that's reasonable. But SDN opens opportunities for novel constructions in Layers 4 to 7 that solve real operational problems in data centers.
