Liquitex Professional Paint Markers are professional-quality waterbased acrylic markers for artists. Permanent and lightfast, they're formulated using artist-grade pigments and come in a range of 50 colors, including iridescents, fluorescents, and transparents.
Color Swatches created using full strength and were applied on glass material.
This Hansa Yellow ranges from reddish yellow to greenish yellow with temperature shifts from cool to warm hues. It has good tinting strength and average to slow drying time.
This Hansa Yellow has excellent lightfastness, particularly in the darker shades.
Hansa Yellow has no significant acute hazards, though its chronic hazards have not been well studied.
Hansa Yellows were first made in Germany just before WW1 from a series of synthetic dyestuffs called Pigment Yellow. They were intended to be a synthetic replacement for Cadmium Yellow.
Arylide, Arylide Yellow, Azo, Brilliant Yellow, Monoazo, Monolite Yellow, Permanent Yellow.
titanium dioxide
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies give no indiciation that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. Titanium White, if inhaled in large amounts over the course of several years, may cause a benign pneumoconiosis that is visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.
iron(III)-oxide, hydrated
Fe2O3 • H2O
Yellow Ochre provides artists with earthtones from cream to brown. It has good hiding power, produces a quick drying paint, and can be safely mixed with other pigments. Its transparency varies widely from opaque shades to more transparent ones, which are valued for their use as glazes. If gypsum is present, Yellow Ochre is not suitable for frescoing. (See Brown Ochre, PY43.) PY42 is made from synthetic iron oxides. PY43 is made from natural iron oxide.
Yellow Ochre has excellent permanence because ochres are some of the most permanent pigments available.
Yellow Ochre is non-toxic unless it contains manganese.
Ochre comes from the Greek word ochros, meaning pale yellow. It was one of the first pigments to be used by human beings, and evidence of its use has been found at 300,000 year old sites in France and the former Czechoslovakia.
Chamois, Iron Yellow, Mars Orange, Mars Yellow, Minette, Ochre, Sil, Yellow Earth, Yellow Oxide. Varieties of Yellow Ochre include Brown Ochre, Flesh Ochre, Roman Ochre, Spruce Ochre, and Transparent Gold Ochre.

Beautiful Beaches A Thing Of The Past
The continuing sore point in the area is, of course - sand - or rather, the lack of it - beach sand. Before the days of golf and polo most tourists came to Barbados for the sun,
and sea. Well, the sand is in crisis, and guess what - tourists are noticing and complaining. Pretty soon, if they are not doing so already, they will start voting with their feet and wallets by hightailing it to other equally gorgeous paradises like Cancun where there is an abundance of sand recently dredged up from the ocean. While the sand is in fairly good condition immediately in front of the beach bar on Mullins Beach where most tourists hangout, it is in severe crisis elsewhere in the area where tourists traditionally go strolling. It is now almost impossible to stroll north from the beach bar at high tide - a situation most people in the area attribute to the groins installed at what they are calling St. Peter's Bay Condos next to Sandridge Hotel.
The idyllic photos above are still being used on the
Island Hideaways
website to market the upmarket villa, The Great House ($5,000 - $8000 usd a night, ouch!), which is the property immediately south of the former Kings Beach Hotel which in turn borders St. Peter's Bay Condos. Below, however, is
the reality
of the beach in front of The Great House today (photo taken July 15, 2007). The coconut trees have been gone for a while but most of the rest of the erosion has happened since the groins went up last year. They keep propping up the deck for sunbathing but we have not seen them set it up for sunset dining in a long while, hummm…
Looking south towards Mullins Beach itself the tragedy keeps unfolding in the photos below. Who would believe that not so long ago this beach had as much sand as Mullins and tourists strolled up and down picking up shells, etc., even at high tide. The situation is now so bad that just this past week the Cassandra II apartments had to put down the stone-filled wire baskets (pictured below) to try to stop their property from falling into the sea. It is so frustrating to see these stopgap measures taken that do absolutely nothing for the beach itself but what else can small property owners in the area do. This blog continues to call for a re-sanding of the whole area. Is there anybody listening, anybody?

I have included the Lithia Springs Railway in this list, but I am reluctant to do so. Several sources cite the existence of this car line, but there is little to support it. It is not the Bowden Lithia Springs Shortline Railroad.
In my research, I have only come across one entry (using Google Books):
Listed as "6 miles of railroad, 5 cars", originating at the Post Office, sharing track with Atlanta Consolidated for some distance. Headed westward toward the Chattahoochee River.
As I mentioned initially, the railway journal listings from the 1800's need to be taken with a grain of salt since: "These journals would report transit activities in Atlanta, but need to be considered with a minor degree of skepticism since they also reported on the hopes and dreams of various promoters."

As an avid patriotic American, and a conservative I am extremely disappointed with how our country has been taking a downward turn each passing day. The voters have expressed their desire to see change in government especially after the failed outcomes in the prior administration. However, the liberal agenda put forth by the left media pundits has eroded the ideals and principles which constitute the foundation of our country. Progressives are constantly berating conservatives who do not conform to their agenda. It is obvious that progressives do not have allegiance to this great constitutional Republic. This is evidenced by the New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo who stated that America was never great. I watch on a daily basis the vitriolic hatred for President Trump. They are not clear why they hate him except that they are coerced by liberal minded groups each day that have an agenda to take down this president.
Most recently we have witnessed the case against President Trump regarding Russian collusion, which has dominated the press for almost two years with absolutely no proof of any wrongdoing by our president. There has been no proof that Russia changed even one vote in the 2016 election. The press has been complacent in distorting the facts to influence public opinion. What is even more upsetting is observing those we have always been held in high esteem namely the FBI who are supposed to be protecting us; have been accused of abusing their authority to prevent candidate Donald Trump from becoming president. However, it did not work because the people wanted change that affects them in a positive way. President Trump has demonstrated by his actions to restore American prosperity, security, and respect from other countries that have been taking advantage of our generosity in our global relationships.
We the people are not blind and can see the biased nature of liberals predominantly the Democratic Party, including the press who bash individuals that do not foster their liberal agenda. It is my hope the 2020 the voters continue to support President Trump's policies and pro-active agenda. It is the duty of the people to vote for leaders like President Trump and all those who want to continue to keep America Great. I urge you to contact your Congressional Representatives to support the policies of this current administration.

Jesus and the Pharisees: Filled/
The dynamic between Jesus and the Pharisees has been a point of difficulty and trouble with me. My gut reaction is to look at the Pharisees with such a condescending point of view. That viewpoint is not without merit. They did after all crucify the Son of God. They did reject the Messiah they had been anticipating for generations. They did use the law of God as a weapon of oppression and domination against the people the Law was given to protect.
I know, that doesn't really help my position. Here's the thing. That's not the whole story. Jesus had some harsh things to say to the Pharisees. He calls them a brood of vipers, whitewashed tombs, and dishes that are clean on the outside but unwashed on the inside. That is harsh.
Let's take a look at the impetus behind these statements of Christ and the character is the Pharisees as we see them in the Gospel.
The depiction of the Pharisees in the Gospels is a caricature. The picture we see of the religious leaders in the Gospels is not representative of every Pharisee. It may have been a large percentage or even a majority, but we should be cautious about painting a group of people – any group of people – with such a wide sweeping brush. We have examples of Pharisees like Nicodemus or the council in Acts 6 who were willing to stop and listen to reason even if they were in a state of disagreement. But we see some of the most outrageous characteristics of this group of men exaggerated and emboldened so that God can reveal through Christ what the new covenant with his people would look like.
I believe their heart was in the right place. At least initially, the objective of the Pharisees was to protect the Law of God and to protect the people against breaking the Law. It was a good-hearted effort to be the people God had called them to be. How frequently to our good intentions lead us down a path of error? They knew God was a holy God expecting a holy people. So they created safeguards around the Law to keep the people from breaking the actual Law. However, over time, they failed to separate what God had commanded from the safeguards. The pieces they had added to the Law were not God's commands, but they bound them on the people as if they were.
The Pharisees missed the point. This is what Jesus emphasizes in the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7. They knew the Law, they kept the Law, they recited the Law but they had completely ignored the heart of God and the desire he had for his people. God wasn't after right action with wrong motives. Jesus confronts the Pharisees with this reality and forces them to decide between two options. On the one hand, they could acknowledge the heart of God they had missed and change their ways. On the other hand, they could ignore the Messiah and pursue the status quo. Change, after all, is difficult, painful, and frequently requires me to own up to mistakes I might have made.
They knew the Law, but they were filled with something else. They were completely invested in the Law of God, but they remain unchanged by it. Jesus is begging to bring them along, but they are unwilling. In Matthew 12:43-45 Jesus points out this very truth. You will be filled by something. If you are not filled by the truth of God, Satan will gladly fill the void with something else.
This my fear. I am a Pharisee. It is hard for me to see the way I get entrenched in traditions. Traditions are important! They are vital to the advancement of our history. They are beautiful expressions of our heritage, but we have to be honest with ourselves and with our people. Next week, we will look at the role tradition plays in our faith.

Suffolk Humanists & Secularists
At our AGM on 10th April, we decided to change our name to "Suffolk Humanists & Secularists" in response to a suggestion by Terry Sanderson, President of the National Secular Society, that such a name change would make our commitment to secularism more explicit, and hence more appealing to the increasing number of people who might like to campaign on secular issues at local level. This website will be updated accordingly. Meanwhile, read more about secularism.

It's appalling Stellar's proposal for your annual pay increase is 0%. That's zero, nada, zilch for four years. Stellar can afford to pay you more but is choosing not to.
Stellar is a highly profitable company that pays its local executives huge bonuses and sends millions offshore every year. A fraction of these tens of millions of dollars would deliver guaranteed pay increases that help you make ends meet.
We continue to advocate for your rights and respect for your contribution to the organisation. It reflects poorly on Stellar that it has chosen to offer nothing beyond the legislated minimum its is forced by law to pay you. Did you also know that most workers in Australia earn above those minimum wages?
Expect a vote on Stellar's substandard offer before Christmas
Stellar indicated its intention to put its substandard offer to a vote before Christmas. Unless we see significant improvement at the next negotiation, we will be recommending that all staff reject this offer. Your current entitlements remain until any new offer is accepted by a majority of staff.
Two indisputable facts
- You deserve better
- Stellar can do better
One thing you can do that will make a difference - ask one workmate to join your CPSU today at www.cpsu.org.au/join
Your efforts have made a difference this year as our union membership has doubled. With every person who stands up you become stronger. It can be difficult to stand up to a culture that ingrains inequality which is why we do it together.
CPSU National Organiser Leonie Henricks is on leave, so if you have any queries on any workplace related matter please get in touch with email@example.com or talk with an industrial organiser in our Member Service Centre on 1300 137 636 (Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm Sydney time).

Senator Hatch Has a Change of Heart
Republican Senator from Utah Sentor Orrin Hatch has not been known in the past for his pro-LGBT stance in politics. Hatch's anti-LGBT record includes being a big supporter of the Defensive Marriage Act, criticizing the 2013 Supreme Court decision on a portion of DOMA, praising the Masterpiece Cakeshop decision, and calling the democratic party 30 years ago the "party of homosexuals." However, as of lately, Hatch's position has taken a turn towards the pro-LGBT side, seeming as if he has had a change of heart. The seven-term senator spoke Wednesday from the Senate floor about national suicide rates among LGBT and recognized that gender identity is not a choice. In support of the LGBT community, before his retirement, Hatch issued the following encouragement: "No one should feel less because of their orientation. They deserve our unwavering love and support. They deserve our validation and the assurance that not only is there a place for them in this society but that it is far better off because of them. These young people need us and we desperately need them." For his recent acceptance and courage to speak, Human Rights Campaign officials applaud Senator Hatch.

The 22 statistics that you are about to read prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the middle class is being systematically wiped out of existence in America.
The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer at a staggering rate. Once upon a time, the United States had the largest and most prosperous middle class in the history of the world, but now that is changing at a blinding pace.
See proof of the Middle Class extermination -->
So why are we witnessing such fundamental changes? Well, the globalism and "free trade" that our politicians and business leaders insisted would be so good for us have had some rather nasty side effects. It turns out that they didn't tell us that the "global economy" would mean that middle class American workers would eventually have to directly compete for jobs with people on the other side of the world where there is no minimum wage and very few regulations. The big global corporations have greatly benefited by exploiting third world labor pools over the last several decades, but middle class American workers have increasingly found things to be very tough.

Dermatologist Recommended:
Anti-Aging Advice by Dr. Jennifer T. Haley
What's the best way to care for skin during the summer months? Top-rated dermatologist Dr. Jennifer Haley answers your top summer skincare questions!
1) Does sun exposure cause aging?
We are led to believe that freckles are adorable in children, but freckles are really the first sign of sun damage. In adults, they are considered "age spots" but really have nothing to do with age, only the amount of time the skin has been exposed to sun. It's a fact that sunlight is a major culprit of wrinkles, dryness, and age spots with more than 90% of skin aging effects being caused solely by the sun. Skin health is a representation of our inner health. Spending all those hours in the gym isn't going to pay off if you don't have gorgeous, glowing, even-toned skin to cover those toned muscles.
2) When should I see a doctor?
One in five Americans will develop skin cancer during their lifetime. The evidence is overwhelming that sun exposure increases the risk of developing skin cancer. While Basal Cell Cancer is most prevalent and has a higher chance of disfiguring you rather than shortening your life, melanoma may be deadly. If you have a new or changing mole, a "pimple" that won't go away after a month or two, or something on your body that looks unlike any other spot, go see a Board-Certified Dermatologist immediately. Early detection and treatment is the key to a cure, schedule an appointment for an end-of-summer exam today!
3) What should I look for in a sunscreen?
Sun Protection Factor (SPF) indicates how long it will take for the UVB rays to redden skin when using a sunscreen, compared to how long skin would take to redden without the product. For instance, someone using a sunscreen with an SPF of 15 will take 15 times longer to redden than without sunscreen. Higher SPF products do not give proportionate protection, and, an SPF 30 product applied properly will block about as much UVB as any higher SPF product. Consider the following UVB screening statistics:
- SPF 15 screening 93% of UVB rays
- SPF 30 screening 97% of UVB rays
- SPF 50 screening 98% of UVB rays
While SPF rating indicates how well a product will protect the skin from UVB, there is no current rating system for UVA protection. There are currently 17 active ingredients approved by the FDA for use in sunscreens. Some provide a physical barrier, using minerals, while others provide a chemical barrier that works by absorbing ultraviolet rays (UVR). Most are chemical sunscreens, which work by absorbing the UVR before it penetrates the skin. The longer you are in the sun, the more quickly these chemicals break down, becoming ineffective.
The physical sunscreens - zinc oxide and titanium dioxide - are insoluble particles that effectively reflect both UVA and UVB away from the skin. The effectiveness of these products relies solely on how thickly they are applied. When applied properly, they are excellent at blocking the entire spectrum of both UVA and UVB rays.
I recommend Derivation's Broad Spectrum Sun Protection Lotion ($45).
4) Do I need sunscreen if I am inside?
Since most sun damage occurs during the cumulative effect of UV exposure during daily activities, apply a physical sunscreen daily first thing every morning. Treat your neck, chest, and the back of your hands daily with your face and always apply makeup over, not under, sunscreen. Since we know that UVA penetrates through windows, sunscreen is mandatory even if you work indoors.
5) Can the foods I eat help protect my skin?
The good news is that many of the healthy nutritional choices you make for your body will also benefit your skin. Consuming antioxidants found in acai berries, blueberries, goji berries, pomegranate, turmeric, tomatoes, carrots, and green tea can internally protect skin from UV damage and give you a natural rosy glow.
Lycopene, the red pigment found in some fruits and vegetables, soaks up free radicals preventing DNA damage, and has been proven to increase the skin's natural SPF by one-third. Foods high in lycopene include watermelon, tomatoes, papaya, pink guava, red bell peppers, and pink grapefruit.
Spinach, swiss chard, and kale contain lutein and zeaxanthin. These nutrients scavenge and destroy free radicals, which have been shown to reduce the risk of developing skin cancers.
Like any nutrition or exercise plan, it is your commitment to the little daily rituals that will make a huge difference over time. Avoid tanning salons to keep skin dewy, glowing, and unblemished. Avoid processed foods and sugars, as these will make your skin dehydrated and sallow. Hydrate, enjoy healthy fats, and choose a rainbow of colorful foods to brighten your complexion and protect your skin internally.
I'll be back next week to answer more of your questions.
Until then,
Dr. Jennifer T. Haley, MD

Interview with mari orr:
What do you consider your official line of work?
Above all else, I'm an artist. I work in watercolors mainly, but also dabble quite heavily in oil painting, weaving, and modern calligraphy lettering. Besides creating, I also think of myself as an official Spreader of Kindness. I'm always thinking of the next way I can make somebody smile.
What do you draw vision from when it comes to creating an inspiring environment for you?
I want my workspace to emulate a museum of sorts — my own personal single-room museum of art and objects I find inspiring. For that reason, my walls are a blank, bright white, which lets the assortment of colors, shapes, and textures stand on their own. As chaotic as it appears, my workspace is a very calming place for me. There is definitely an underlying organization to everything in here.
What does your workspace say about you?
I'm creative, fun, colorful, and try not to take myself too seriously — I think my workspace accurately reflects that mindset. I always have about twenty projects in progress and a million ideas racing around in my head. The wall in front of my desk is ever-changing because of this. New inspiration and ideas go up, old ones are filed with completed projects. I am a very purposeful person though — I'm habitually early and like to have my days planned. I think this aspect of my personality is reflected in my workspace organization.
What can you not live without on your desk?
I can't live without SPACE on my desk. I'm a fan of spreading my supplies out while I'm in the process of creating. But, I have to make sure to clean up after every painting session because my desk has to be ready to accommodate my mess when the next urge to paint strikes. I dream about a desk that is large and square that I can work from on all sides…
What can people expect when visiting your workspace?
When people drop in, they can expect visual delight! I think my workspace is best taken in slowly and purposefully, letting your gaze linger on what catches your eye. You'll probably see fresh flowers, a few bottles of water, the day's to-do list, and open paint tubes. If I'm oil painting, the smell of solvents and additives will be sharp in the air. Depending on what kind of mood I'm in, you'll hear me jamming to oldies, 90s era alt-rock, or classical music heavily focused in strings.
What is your theory of place as far as creative workspaces go?
I think the best creative workspaces are filled with natural light and the supplies you need at arm's reach.

Friday, October 2, 9am – Sunday, October 4, 2009, 11pm
British Council event at Brussels Congres train station
Join us for panel discussion on culture and innovation in cities with guest speakers from Goldsmiths University of London, the ULB, the British Council and participating artists.
In Europe, where over 70 percent of the population live in urban areas, culture and innovation is central to addressing the challenges that cities face. Cities are cradles for innovation because they are where knowledge, culture and self-governance come together, and their ability to solve problems creatively now matters more than ever.
It is fair to say that most of the big challenges, globally, are to be found in cities. So will their solutions. Join us for a panel discussion on culture and innovation in cities.
With guest speakers from Goldsmiths University of London, the ULB, the British Council and participating artists. We are also supporting an exhibition which runs for the length of the festival,
from Friday 2 – Sunday 4 October at Brussels Congres Train Station and at the house/gallery on 105 Besme.
Participating artists include Gast Bouschet and Nadine Hilbert (the artists that represented Belgium at the Venice Biennale) and a host of London-based artists including Matthew Stock, Helen Turner, Rhiannon Hunter, Cadi Hélène Rowlands, Sarah Cross, Claire Carroll and Eden Mitsenmache

Tottenham are looking to remain in the Premier League title race as they take on Leicester City on Sunday afternoon at Wembley.
Spurs have won their last three and can return to within five points of leaders Liverpool with three points against the Foxes in north London.Oxlade-Chamberlain explains why Mohamed Salah doesn't pass ahead of Chelsea clash
Leicester are not in such good form and have picked up just one point from their last four games, sinking to 12th in the table and manager Claude Puel is under increasing pressure to improve results.
A surprise victory for Puel would see his side climb to ninth in the division, although defeat would leave them just eight points above the relegation zone.
Spurs have scored an incredible 15 goals in their last four matches against the Foxes, including 6-1 and 5-4 victories.
When is Tottenham vs Leicester?
The match is on Sunday 10 February with kick-off at 1.30pm at Wembley Stadium.
What TV channel is Tottenham vs Leicester on and is there a live stream?
Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League will be showing the game live.
Subscribers can stream the action on Sky Go or watch on the Sky Sports app, while non-subscribers can watch through a Sky Sports Pass on Now TV.
What are the odds? (Courtesy of Betfair)
4/6 Tottenham
3/1 Draw
5/1 Leicester
Team news
Spurs are still missing a number of big names with Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Eric Dier and Ben Davies all out.
Leicester are without Marc Albrighton and Daniel Amartey, but Youri Tielemans could make his debut.

What we offer?
At the fostering team we provide a range of services to make sure that foster carers are supported and trained to be able to get the most out of fostering. We find therapeutic fostering solutions to fostering issues and offer guidance, support and advice:
- Regular meetings with a therapeutic practitioner in your own home
- Joining a reflective practice groups facilitated by a qualified therapist
- Access to telephone support
- Regular consultation with a child psychotherapeutic specialist
- Theoretical seminars to underpin your understanding of iTF
We believe it is crucial for you as foster carers to know the people you work with, and for us to know you and our children. This team approach is how we work at Childhood First integrated Therapeutic Fostering.
We are made up of frontline professionals who understand children and young people's services and fostering. All of us have experience of local authority work, as well as voluntary agency, children's residential services and other child care services. We are part of a multi-disciplinary team and have access to our fellow team colleagues' knowledge, skills and experience. We all work with a focus and passion to offer children and young people the opportunity to turn their lives around.
We are a small and friendly team, where we all know each other, staff, children and foster carers. We see ourselves all as part of a team and work together proactively. We all work together to promote the emotional wellbeing of children on their journey of recovery.
We have listened to what foster carers have said, and are aware that people need to feel that they are valued; and part of something they want and are proud to belong to. Fostering families should have a say in decision making and issues that affect them. We actively involve foster carers and children in developing our services.
Our philosophy is to care for our carers, so that they can care for our vulnerable children. Carers, children and young people know we care, even at times when they are not coping well.

This weekend I wrote about the first official picture of Gambit from X-Men Origins: Wolverine and now we have several new photos from tha film that have appeared online for our viewing pleasure. There are five in total and are all live shots from scenes in the film.
If you got a chance to see the low-quality leaked footage of the teaser trailer featured at this summer's San Diego Comic-Con, these may look familiar to you as they are all directly taken from scenes shown during that trailer.
The images are not of the highest quality, but what they depict is pretty awesome.
Take a look and see what you think:
Hugh Jackman and Liev Schreiber faceoff in X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Wolverine charges down the cell block, claws ready
Wolverine and Sabretooth vs. Firing Squad
Wolverine and Sabretooth raid the beach
Hugh Jackman's Wolverine taking an unpleasant bath
Where's the arm hair, Wolvy?! And why don't any of the other soldiers get to grow cool facial hair?
My only gripe with these is how Wolverine is just as big as Sabretooth in the film. The actual Wolverine character in the comics is only 5'3" compared to Sabretooth's 6'6" build - a vast difference in physical stature. We know Hugh Jackman is way too tall to be Wolverine but that being said, the filmmakers make no effort to make him appear smaller than Liev Schreiber's Sabretooth.
In the comics and even in the classic 1990s cartoon, the rivalry between the two arch-enemies was made so significant because of how massive and intimidating Sabretooth was in comparison. But in this film, he doesn't even seem to be a physical threat as he's the same size... even arguably a little bit smaller in some of the images. To me, there's no match, Wolverine plus Adamantium claws beats other dude of same size with less efficient claws. In Bryan Singer's X-Men, that Sabretooth felt larger and more like the proper character from the comic books.
Don't get me wrong, I love me some Liev Schreiber, but I dug Tyler Mane's Sabretooth if we're talking about the characters representing the source material.
What do you think?
X-Men Origins: Wolverine is directed by Gavin Hood and features a very recognizable cast including Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds, Dominic Monaghan, Taylor Kitcsh, Lynn Collins, Kevin Durand and Danny Huston.
The first official trailer debuts next Friday, December 12th, alongside The Day the Earth Stood Still and the film hits theaters May 1, 2009.

ethnographic need finding
the context
This work occurred at St. Paul's Hospital (and surrounding clinics) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The observations/interviews were conducted over seven weeks during July/August 2013.
the goal
Over the course of seven weeks, myself and a second PhD student sought to better understand the healthcare context in Ethiopia to identify unmet needs that could be addressed through technological innovation.
the method
Our team used primarily embedded observations and interviews to understand the hospital's needs and challenges. We sought to reinforce the observed needs with background literature and interviews with stakeholders outside the hospital (Ministry of Health, medical device manufacturers, Ethiopian regulators, etc.).
the results
We identified over 100 needs over the course of our observations and interviews. We were able to downselect to the top ten needs that the clinicians believed would be most important moving forward. One of these needs, a more accurate way to administer contraceptive implants evolved into our work with the SubQ Assist.
