For Record Store Day, Die Kreuzen rereleasing 'Cows and Beer' on vinyl
Rush Mor Records has a good reputation in town as Milwaukee's longest-running record shop.
But it's not every day that owner Dan DuChaine gets calls from Minnesota, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Germany, Greece and France.
That's because Rush Mor is hosting a special in-store appearance with Dan Kubinski and Keith Brammer — from the seminal, Milwaukee-born-and-bred, genre-jumping punk band Die Kreuzen — in celebration of the band's newly restored and remastered debut, "Cows and Beer."
The 1982 EP is being rereleased Saturday as a 7-inch record — plus there will be a limited 12-inch version packaged with a newly inked Die Kreuzen comic book — in coordination with Record Store Day, the increasingly popular, international celebration of vinyl at independent, bricks-and-mortar music retailers.
Last year, the Exclusive Company's Milwaukee location saw a 30% uptick in sales on Record Store Day compared with the year prior, said store manager Brian Kirk — thanks to in-store entertainment, special sales and a fresh inventory of Record Store Day-exclusive releases.
Though Die Kreuzen isn't as well known as the Dave Matthews Band, the Grateful Dead, Green Day, David Bowie and other artists with exclusive vinyl releases for RSD, the Milwaukee band has a rabid cult following for its innovative, progressive blend of punk, metal, glam, psychedelia and hard rock.
The band broke up in 1992, right before Atlantic Records offered a deal, but Die Kreuzen found fans in seminal music names like Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore, Steve Albini and Butch Vig, the Viroqua native who produced a couple Die Kreuzen albums before he broke out with Nirvana's "Nevermind."
Die Kreuzen, minus original guitarist Brian Egeness, reunited for a few shows last year. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel chronicled the comeback in a two-part documentary, available with this story at jsonline.com/music.
"When we were doing shows last summer, people said they wanted 'Cows and Beer,'" Kubinski said. "There have been so many bootlegs since forever, and bad copies floated by us, and we signed them anyway. It occurred to me, wouldn't it be great to re-release 'Cows and Beer' in a really nice, clean, pristine format."
Before that thought popped in Kubinski's head, Mike Beer of local label Beer City Skateboards and Records had reached out to the band about putting out a Die Kreuzen release.
"I had interviewed (Beer) for the Onion and was really impressed with his professionalism," Brammer said. "He wasn't someone we thought would take us for a ride."
Brammer had the original "Cows and Beer" tape gathering dust on his closet shelf.
WMSE-FM (91.7) audio engineer Billy Cicerelli was the only person they could find who had the right reel-to-reel machine to play the tape and make a new recording, Kubinski said.
"I thought it would be OK to put it on a reel, and (Cicerelli's) like, 'No, no, no, no. There is every chance this will fall apart the minute we put it on the machine,'" Brammer said.
They ended up having to play the tape backward and record it that way, and Cicerelli flipped the music around on his computer so it could play correctly.
But there was much more work to be done. Beer took the new recording over to Dave Eck, owner of Lucky Lacquers & Digital Mastering in Middleton, to clean it up.
"Dave is quite the audiophile," Beer said. "It took him about two to three weeks, and he said to me, 'I ran this under a scope and took out every pop and click.' It was quite amazing what he was able to do."
"Heavier is the word that keeps coming to mind, and I think it's just because it's so much clearer," Kubinski said of listening to the re-released EP. "Erik (Tunison)'s kick drum is amazing. That's stuff I didn't pay attention to back in the day."
Through Beer's other business, Independent Label Distribution, about 5,600 7-inch copies of "Cows and Beer" are being shipped to record stores all over the world for RSD Saturday. Like other RSD titles, they will only be sold in independent stores on Saturday.
But the item die-hard Die Kreuzen fans will really be clamoring for is the 12-inch. Only 1,100 copies are being manufactured, and they'll come with a new comic book written by Brammer and Kubinski, and inked by punk rock cartoonist Brian Walsby, about the making of the EP and its restoration.
"Keith and I are both avid comic collectors, so when I mentioned the idea to (Keith), he said, 'Hell, yeah,'" Kubinski said.
"We love Brian's artwork, and he's been around since the first time we played L.A.," Brammer added. "He did a fantastic job capturing what we look like and who we were."
Now, with the re-released EP, other fans with Die Kreuzen since day one, and fans who've popped up over the years, will get a clearer sense of what the band sounded like when it was first getting started.
"And it was all able to be done right in Wisconsin, which makes it even better," Beer said.

On July 31st my phone did not arrive. Of course, just like anyone I called the company. After being on the phone for over 20 minutes, after speaking with three different people, I was told that there was nothing they could do! They lied to me, took my money and blew me off!! When I told them that I was extrememly unhappy with the service, that they aren't living up to their promises, I asked to speak to a supervisior I was told there was no one in and I would have to wait for up to two hours to speak with someone. They offered to call me back, but of course how is that possible, considering I don't have a phone they can call! I asked for some sort of compensation because they are the ones that messed up and I was told there was nothing that could be done!

Chipping Campden Travel Guide: 56 reviews and 142 photos
When touring through the Cotswolds you will see many understated towns, and a few very busy with tourists. Chipping Campden seems somewhere in the middle of all this, not too rushed and noisy, but it is well visited.
Just a few minutes away is the town of Broadway, and in the other direction Hidcote Manor. These three points are all very interesting in this part of the Cotswolds.
A highlight of this area are the beautiful gardens nearby at Hidcote Manor. It is one of England's greatest gardens, with a series of outdoor areas that seem like individual rooms with different characteristics. There are old rose varieties, uncommon plants and trees from across the globe.

We had a very small basic room very shabby sticky bathroom floor not very well cleaned.
Reception told us we had booked a single room I showed evidence of double and she then blamed late rooms. Asked for diff room but not interested. We only stayed as it was late to change and only saw room after we paid. Thought we would have had some feed back before now but obv no one bothered. Will not book with late rooms again unless this is addressed it spoilt our trip. Tried to ring LR but no joy.
p.s saw other rooms next morning and they looked a good size and a lot nicer, and maybe they were cleaner.

Not As Expected - Disappointing
Room small.
No chair to use at the dressing table. Had problems with sink as plug would not work, hence unable to keep water in sink. Breakfast was self service which meant all cooked food was being kept hot in containers and did not look at appetising therefore gave it a miss.

hope we all get rich
30k ALSO -- solid stock going up -- floor seems to be at 3.80 - 3.90 or so
I hope this helps sick people, that need a drug that will help the quality of life for cancer patients
I bought 5,000 at that price!!
10K Club here, but sold some at 5.40. Been here for 2+ years.I remember when I was waiting for it to pull back to 1.78 to load up and missed it. I kicked myself for a while. I would have been a 20Ker
im in the 20k club, knowing that you guys are in the 40k club, i feel a lot safe. just waiting for kerx to skyrocket, hopefully soon. glta
I'm in the 20K club too,Pat. But I'm really a 40K clubber wantabe.
Probably not. If want to play it safe, you could park your 40k in low interest savings account and earn $500. Or you leave it Kerx for a year. Unlikely you'll be much poorer.. Could be a great deal richer. I've got the same 40k in the game. We'll see what happens.
Also part of the 40K club. No worries.

Skip to comments.NASA's Kepler Mission Confirms Its First Planet in Habitable Zone of Sun-like Star
Posted on 12/05/2011 10:46:16 AM PST by Dallas59
The newly confirmed planet, Kepler-22b, is the smallest yet found to orbit in the middle of the habitable zone of a star similar to our sun. The planet is about 2.4 times the radius of Earth. Scientists don't yet know if Kepler-22b has a predominantly rocky, gaseous or liquid composition, but its discovery is a step closer to finding Earth-like planets.
We need interstellar travel NOW, it is needed to escape the Earth while the Liberal, Socialists and Caliphate destroy each other....
Only 600 light years away!
Gravity would be a serious problem.
Not really, even a really large planet like that would only have gravity that is 1.5X to 2X the gravity on earth due to how gravity works via the square of distance.
2X gravity is not all that bad, it would be like being overweight when fit and for someone who is fit you would get used to it.
We need to send all SEIU employees, Communists, leftists and lawyers to this planet immediately in order to establish a utopian society. The survival of Personkind is at stake!
They're looking for planets around stars like ours. It could easily be that most habitable planets orbit red dwarf stars, and orbit them very close in.
Even if Proxima Centauri, at 4.27 light years distance, had a habitable planet it wouldn't really matter since we don't have the technology to get there in any decent amount of time.
I will proudly lead a scouting expedition made up of myself and a able crew of 1000 Swedish bikini models.
I will send for the rest of humanity once we get there and make sure it is safe.....maybe.
Underwire bras required!
An obscure kpax reference.
Also depends on how dense it is, right?
If mass goes as R-cube, gravity goes as R-squared, so surface gravity would be proportional to R, for equal denisity. All other things are rarely, equal, however. The earth is the densiest planet in the solar system, having an iron core. The Moon's diameter, for instance, is about 3.67 times smaller than earth's, but it's surface gravity is about 6.05 times smaller because it is that much less dense.
If this planet has an iron core the size of earth's and a lot of rock plied on top, it could have surface gravity much lower than earth's. Either way, just as elephants and spiders exist on earth, complex life could exist on this planet. Even snakes.
Kepler measures light dips from transiting planets, a technique that gives the size, but not the mass of the planet. Doppler studies of its host star should reveal its mass as well.
This is what I was thinking also.
2G's would not be too bad. 3 G's would be sucky.

Hmmm. The diameter of Jupiter is more than 22 times earth's and a Jovian day is about 10 hours long. The moon otoh has a diameter 3.66 time smaller than earth's and a solar day of about 29.53 days. The earth was "despun" by the moon over the past several billion years, in fact, even today, the length of day increases by about 0.0015-0.0020 seconds per century.
Nevermind...found it:
F = Mm/r^2
(Force of gravity = Mass (planet) x mass (person)/radius squared)
So until NASA figures out the composition of Kepler 22b, i.e. density, then we can't know how much more a person would weigh.
[ If this planet has an iron core the size of earths and a lot of rock plied on top, it could have surface gravity much lower than earths ]
That would be awesome, a whole lot more landmass and less gravity to boot!!!! Awesome Holiday planet!
Actually a larger planet may have a higher differentiation during formation, making more of the heavy stuff sink into the core so your scenario is plausible!
2/3 the gravity with 2x the surface area, Let's call it Earth II and find a way to get there NOW! :)
Before we spend any money actually getting to one of them, we need to determine if that planet has any chocolate. So far the earth is the only planet known to have chocolate.
Maybe you can explain to me the connection between planetary radius and period of rotation, because I just don't get it.
i)plate tectonics (avoids the full globe resurfacing problem seen on Venus and an important part of magnetic field sustainability);
ii) low eccentricity orbit (i.e. mostly round);
iii) a Jupiter mass or larger companion to suck up rocks that would otherwise perpetually bombard the inner solar system;
iv) low variability in solar output; and
v) a quiet neighborhood where nothing big has gone supernova in the last billion years.
Saw a T-shirt once:
SAVE the EARTH!
It's the only planet with chocolate!
Probably more but the line of sight is off if your just looking for planets that transit the host star.
It's still Minshara-class.
Everyone that is cool knows that the Starfleet nomenclature for human habitable planets are called class M planets.
Serious actual work on really advanced drives should be going on, not just theoretical work and damn sure no more crap like the ISS.
Most likely with one hemisphere in eternal daylight. I don't buy the usual arguments against such worlds as habitable worlds (flares and atmosphere freeze-out). They probably offer a more stable environment for life than worlds like ours.
Those are very good points. However, I have also imagined that there could be planets in which the conditions are even more favorable than here. Less asteroids in the system, for example. Or a star that has been ejected from its host galaxy by a merger. So although an extinction event occurs once every hundred million years or so here, and restarts evolution again almost from scratch, there are others that take much longer. Rare of course by a huge factor, but with more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on the earth, it's possible.
All excellent points.
I stand corrected. The article does not mention how quickly this planet rotates on it's axis.
[ Serious actual work on really advanced drives should be going on, not just theoretical work and damn sure no more crap like the ISS. ]
Yes need to work on Heim Drives and gravity manipulation type devices.
Anything that can decouple an object from inertia will be a goo thing to research.
Yep, agree on that.
No matter how fast the drive, if you can't accelerate at a decent speed, you ain't going nowhere fast :^)
But maybe THEY do to get here. :-)
I have this fantasy that, just as people muddled along without electricity even though it was all around them, we stumble through space at liquid propellent speed until somebody says, "Hey, look what I discovered!"
Who is THEY you mention?
Maybe the cloaked ship orbiting Mercury that was revealed by a CME in this video posted on GoogTube?
The Roswellians - or those folks mentioned on "Ancient Aliens". :-)
They could be in that cloaked ship checking out our Messenger satellite that's in orbit around Mercury!
They prefer to be called Czechoslovakians...
Depends on if your knees are in good shape or not.
What vantage point was that viewed from?
I could be the SOHO satellite or STEREO A or B satellites that watch the Sun.
Hey, that's not all bad. Why should we white guys mess up the rest of the galaxy with European-style socialism since America seems to be gleefully going down the same path?
After all, it's the Chinese who need more space to put people, anyway, and they seem to be doing a better job of learning capitalist principles than we white guys are in remembering them.

New details Tuesday, surrounding the death of Wood County school teacher and former Miss West Virginia Vickie Myers.
The Parkersburg Police Department is releasing her autopsy results.
Police Chief Gerald Board says Myers death was accidental.
Family members discovered Myers dead in her home about a week ago.
The state medical examiner's office in Charleston has pinpointed Myers cause of death as asphyxiation.
Police say that indicates she choked to death.
What officers won't say...is if drugs or alcohol were a factor in her death.
Chief Gerald Board says, "I could comment on the drugs and alcohol, but I won't. It was an accidental death. It's been ruled an accident, and that's all the police department is concerned with, and that's all we report on."
As far as the police department is concerned, these test results close their investigation into Vickie Myers death.

US: Third ex-Carter's exec charged with insider trading
By Petah Marian | 8 November 2012
The former head of investor relations for children's wear company Carter's Inc has been charged with insider trading - making him the company's third former executive to be charged as part of an ongoing investigation.
A federal grand jury yesterday (7 November) charged Eric Martin with conspiracy, securities fraud, and wire fraud in connection with multi-year, multi-state insider trading schemes primarily involving Carter's stock.
The indictment alleges that between 2005 and 2009, he traded in Carter's stock based on material, non-public information about the company's quarterly and annual financial results - and tipped off a former Wall Street analyst ahead of Carter's announcement of the information.
The FBI said the Wall Street analyst then bought and sold Carter's stock on the basis of this information, earning substantial illegal profits and illegally avoiding substantial losses.
It also alleges that Martin traded in Carter's stock for his own benefit on the basis of material, non-public information about Carter's earnings releases and other events during his employment with the company.
He is also accused of buying thousands of shares of Carter's stock during company-wide trading blackout periods that preceded the company's quarterly and annual earnings releases, even though company insiders were prohibited from trading in Carter's stock at those times. He allegedly made these trades without gaining approval from the company's CFO, which company policies required him to do so.
"This indictment charges that for years, Carter's trusted Martin with the company's most intimate secrets, including information about its not-yet-disclosed financial results," said US attorney Sally Quillian Yates.
"Instead of safeguarding this inside information, he was using it to make illegal profits in the stock market and tipping others so that they could do the same."
The indictment charges Martin with one count of conspiracy and with multiple counts of securities fraud and wire fraud. The conspiracy and securities fraud charges against Martin each carry a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. The wire fraud charges each carry a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.
This is not the first allegation of financial wrongdoing at the company. Former president Joseph Pacifico was charged in March with a multi-million dollar securities fraud cover-up between 2004 and December 2009.
And last year, former executive vice president Joseph Elles pleaded not guilty to allegations of financial fraud and insider trading.
The charges against these two executives were focused on Elles granting excessive discounts or rebates to Kohl's in order to induce the department store retailer to buy greater quality of Carter's products. The discounts were intended to help Kohl's defray costs related to inventory clearance and sales promotions, and to allow Kohl's achieve a desired profit margin on its sales of goods purchased from Carter's.
Elles then persuaded Kohl's to postpone deducting these discounts from invoice payments until later quarters, which meant the discounts were not reflected in Carter's quarterly financial reports, leading the company to overstate its quarterly profit.
Pacifico was charged for securities fraud, causing the filing of false financial statements, and falsifying the books and records of a public company, due to his knowledge of Elles alleged actions.
Atlanta-based Carter's makes apparel exclusively for babies and young children under its own Carter's and Osh Kosh brands, as well as private label apparel. It has cooperated fully with the investigation.

#13285 closed Bug (fixed)
Generic views call populate_xheaders, which breaks caching

|Has patch:

Many of the Django generic views (as well as the flatpage view) call django.core.xheaders.populate_xheaders on the response. Populate_xheaders checks request.user, in order to include xheaders if the logged-in user is a staff member. Checking request.user triggers session access, which causes SessionMiddleware to add Vary: Cookie to the response, which makes caching much less efficient.
There should be some way to turn off populate_xheaders in production (or at least turn off the user-is-staff check), so efficient caching can be achieved.

I'm going to close this as a dupe of #13283; I know the presentation is different, but the root cause is the same - we need to be able to determine the login/access status of the current user without marking the session as dirty.

Apologies - I got myself confused here. Original reporter was correct - the issue here is that populate_xheaders is a debugging tool that breaks caching.
comment:3 Changed 6 years ago by carljm
The function-based generic views are now deprecated, and the class-based views that replaced them do not call populate_xheaders. So the only remaining non-deprecated view in the Django source tree that calls populate_xheaders is the flatpage view.
My take at this point is that the populate_xheaders function itself is a) of marginal usefulness, since these sorts of debugging headers can easily be added without a generic function for it, b) now barely used within Django, c) breaks caching as written, and d) completely undocumented. So, barring major objections, I think it should just be removed from Django entirely. Since it's undocumented I don't think a deprecation path is strictly needed, but to err on the side of caution it could be deprecated along the same timeline as the function-based generic views, since they all call it.

Me? I think I'm funny. I'm definitely sassy. And I love to laugh. I'm good at being inappropriate when appropriate and I enjoy capitalizing on awkward moments. I wear my heart on my sleeve... I don't know how NOT too. Sometimes it bites me in the butt but I'd rather be honest and open with both the good and bad and not waste anyone's time or energy. I get pretty passionate about my relationships, work, friends, etc. and can adapt to pretty much any situation. I'm a giver, loyal, compassionate, laid back/open minded (like the for reals kind) and am trying to be more spontaneous. I love to travel and learn about/explore other cultures/foods/experiences.
Sometimes NYC eats my Southern spirit for breakfast but I try to take those times to do something for myself or find new reasons to love it (or remind myself) why I'm here. I would say I have a pretty healthy lifestyle (gym, kettlebell training, biking, weights, mobility, movement etc.) I eat healthy most of the time, but I'm definitely not super annoying about it. :) I have a borderline sexual relationship with peanut butter lol
I like guys who make me laugh, are confident with who they are, motivated about their futures, still think fart/poop jokes are funny, family/friends are important to them, are expressive with their emotions, aren't afraid of communication, and know that chivalry is not a lost art. Big Bonus points if you take care of yourself physically in some sort of way! I need a partner that will only inspire me to continue to be healthy and would be amazing if we could so some of it together-- and of course, drink a few beers and eat pizza along the way. duhhhhh.
Fight vs flight, apparently I choose fight:
I once got pick pocketed and then promptly stole my phone back from the guy.
I also awoke one night to a guy climbing in my window at 4am, but thankfully fought him off with my quick thinking and sass. It was recorded on my phone via a sleep app. #truth
Hope that stuff keeps turning out in my favor... Haha Anyone out there teach self defense?
I also like going to concerts/shows as much as possible (but oddly need to do more of), FOOD, always down to try new things, good conversations, photography, traveling, art (mixed media/collage/pattern/painting) when I can, etc. and so on... and so fourth.
I want to do more of: art, museums, spontaneous adventures, GETTING OUT OF THE CITY!!, trying new restaraunts, dog kisses, hanging out in parks, watch movies (see below!), volunteering, cuddling, laughing, learning, traveling... Perhaps you can join/assit?! :) LET'S PLAY!
oh man. I love a lot of different types. Here goes:
- Kings of Leon - The Black Keys - Fun. - Mumford and Sons- Penguin Prison - LCD Soundsystem - Amos Lee - Disturbed - Yeah Yeah Yeahs - The Shins - Yaesayer- The Local Natives - Broken Bells - The xx - Bon Iver - Miike Snow - Empire of the Sun - M83 - Chromeo - Grizzly Bear - Florence & The Machine - The Police - Earth Wind & Fire - Metallica - Stones - Zeppelin- Adele - Sleigh Bells - Lil Wayne - JayZ - Kid Cudi, Childish Gambino, etc etc. etc.
Really just to name a few.
- Breaking Bad - Mad Men - Arrested Development - Always Sunny -Orange is New Black - Key & Peele - Happy Endings - Modern Family - HIMYM - Family Guy - Full House - Freaks and Geeks - Family Matters - Mork N Mindy - Clarissa Explains it All - Wonder Years - In Living Color
I currently don't watch these that often (LAME and currently working on this lol), so lets take a nostalgic POV shall we:
- Ace Ventura's - Dumb and Dumber - Little Monsters - Flight of the Navigator - Never Ending Story - Nightmare Before Christmas - Tommy Boy - The Princess Bride - Stephen King's IT -
ALL- Let's go food exploring.
Throwing Shade - This American Life - Nerdist - Joe Rogan Experience- You Made It Wierd - Radio Lab - Doodie Calls

- Where I should ride my bike to this weekend
- What I would do if I won the lottery and how I would divvy up the $$

I like to get up early-ish on Saturdays and go to kettlebell class/ get stuff done/ day drink/enjoy the day!
Satur-day/night is where it's at.
Oh. And I used to like Creed... A lot. As in I can sing all the words to all 3 albums... lol deal breaker!?
- You like to laugh and you have something to talk about
- You have passions and dreams
- you have high communication standards
- you know the way to be treated like a king is to tret your lady like a queen
- You are open minded about health and spiritual/universe stuff
- dive bars > trendy lounges

More than 3,700 high-tech firms employ 91,000 people in Austin. The capital city of the Lone Star State draws its work force from the 122,000 students in the area. Higher education, especially the renowned research centers at the University of Texas at Austin, propel the high-tech sector.
Charm City is emerging from the shadow of Washington, D. C. with its formidable biotech sector. The city uses its strategic location to attract companies that need access to metros such as New York and Philadelphia. Lauded research centers at Johns Hopkins University keep the cluster's innovation fresh.
Huntsville's roots in aerospace and defense run so deep it's earned the moniker "Rocket City." Its tech landscape includes more than 300 defense and aerospace firms, and more than half of jobs in the area are within those industries. Now the city is expanding its high-tech cluster beyond its traditional sectors.
Disney's influence extends far beyond the eponymous amusement park. Orlando's Disney Entrepreneur Center helps innovators turn their visions into reality. Coupled with universities such as the University of Central Florida and a booming population - of which a third is between 18 and 44 years old - the city is poised to rapidly expand its high-tech cluster.
Pittsburgh is shaking off its Rust Belt identity and preparing for a high-tech future. The city is focusing on green technology, research and development, and investing in education. It's particularly competitive in robotics, and was dubbed "Roboburgh" by the Wall Street Journal. Even President Obama has lauded the city for its ability to transform in the midst of economic difficulty.
Some of the nation's top research institutions anchor this region known as the Triangle - Duke University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and North Carolina State University. Research Triangle Park, one of the country's oldest and largest research parks, gave the Triangle its nickname when it was founded in 1959. Today it houses more than 170 companies that employ over 42,000 workers.

Skill Level Intermediate
Here's another far too often overlooked phase of creature modeling, the midrange details. These are the shapes and structures of your model that are smaller than the big things like limbs and heads, but are bigger than wrinkles and scales. Midrange details are things like the muscles that make up a limb. So a good example of a midrange detail here is kind of the way this muscle overlaps this limb right here. It's kind of creating a separate shape from the limb over all.
It's also these little folds of flesh that kind of hang off the skin here. Same thing with these bits of skin here on the neck the way they hang off. Looking at this kangaroo here, some good midrange details are these bits of tendon and muscle that are surrounding this joint right here. This is going to come in really handy on a dew hopper, because we can look at this and see how these different muscles connect to the joint. Same thing with this frog. There are little details that are bigger than the tiny little warts. So for example, this little lump here on the back.
And that's a good midrange detail. It's not as big as a big limb or a head. These are the details that bring believability to a creature. Unfortunately, too many modelers get distracted by the temptation to sculpt the fun wrinkles and skin bumps before they really give this phase the attention that it deserves. While sculpting this type of detail, be sure to look at your reference closely. I'll be looking at images like these to help me maintain a sense of anatomical believability as well as artistic appeal. So let's load up our exercise file.
I am going to go to the Exercise Files, Chap_3, 03_05, simplemesh.ZPR. So I am going to hit Shift+F to show the wireframe and just zoom in here. So you can see that there's a good number of polygons, but it's not really heavily detailed. It's just enough to give me this midrange detail. Usually, I try to get all of the shapes into a subdivision level that I possibly can before subdividing again. This keeps me from getting bogged down in fine detail before I am ready.
I am just going to hit Shift+ F to turn off the wireframe. So let's look at an example of one way in which midrange details can be done wrong. I am going to go into my Crease Brush. So BCJ. So what happens a lot of times is people will sculpt in muscles and joints in such a way that it separates the joints from each other. So what you will see is kind of a line that separates two joints, and I am going to go into my Custom Clay Brush and also sculpt on some muscles here.
So what you see a lot of times is muscles that bulge on either side of a joint. It kind of creates a separation from the top of the leg to the bottom of the leg. And that lacks believability and it's not as nose interesting to look at. So I am just going to hit Ctrl+Z to undo all of this. What's more believable is if you sculpt on muscles in such a way that it creates a pattern. So if you look at your reference, you can see oftentimes that muscles will attach on one limb and then they extend down onto the other.
So these muscles of the forearm actually attach up on the upper arm. Similarly, with the bicep, the muscle attaches down on the bone of the forearm and then continues up onto the upper arm. I am just going to tweak this some more. So now you can see that the muscles kind of have this zigzag pattern which is much more believable and much more interesting to look at. Let's look at another example. I am going to hind leg and I just want to subdivide the model a few times to give myself more detail.
I am going to go to the Crease Brush to just show you what you see sometimes. Sometimes people will try to create separations between muscles by just scratching on a line and try to define and separate muscle this way. The problem with that is that the shape of the muscle might be there, but it doesn't really have the volume of a muscle. It just looks like lines on a surface. So let me undo that. What tends to work better is sculpting on the volume of the muscle. So I am going to my Custom Clay Brush and I just want to sculpt on the size and shape and volume of that muscle rather than lines between them.
Of course, I'll probably spend a lot more time refining the shapes of these, but you get the idea that seeing the volume of the muscle is much more believable and appealing than just seeing lines scratched on between them. Sometime also I'd like to consider when sculpting in midrange detail is that you don't really need to be all that careful with it. You can just go in and be wild and just experiment with different things and if they don't work very well it's very easy to just smooth them out.
Then just try something else. It's also a good idea to try to use variations. So let's say I want to put in some ribs of this character. I am going to do some thin ones and some thick ones and just try to get some variety, and then you can smooth things out and continue working into it. You can overlap muscles. So for example, you've got this muscle that comes off the shoulder right here and onto the back and it overlaps ribs.
So I just like to work back and forth and just try different things and overlap different things and eventually with time you get some good results. It can be hard to know when you've gone far enough with this. What I usually like to do is try to force myself to go too far to really pull out these muscles to the point where it's just silly and then just tone it back until it looks right. Kind of like you never know if you have gone far enough until you've gone too far.
Another thing you can do is ask yourself, if you can sense the volume of each muscle underneath the skin. If not, if your muscles are just defined as lines on the surface, you should work more developing those forms. It's very common for beginners to overlook this stage of sculpting, but if you keep it in mind every time you work, it will become second nature.

Your plugin was working great until I upgraded both the WordPress installation to 3.4.1 and then did the plugin upgrade as well. Is there something with WordPress 3.4.1 that might have stopped it from working? I am using the plugin on 3 different sites and it happened on all 3 so I don't think it's an issue with my themes -- I read the other resolved thread at http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-floating-social-media-links-not-displaying-on-site and I have the footer code so I don't think that is the issue.
Any ideas? One of the sites is http://www.francishowelljrwrestling.com if you need to check it out.

In order to get a shirt with your favorite player's name and number you have to pay extra. But if the name and number peel off the shirt, it is completely unwearable and looks terrible! Not exceptable. It's a fraud.
I have tried 3 times to contact customer service and noone has responded to me in over 3 weeks. All I've gotten is a generic email stating that they have recieved my complaint and someone will contact me within 24 hours. It doesn't happen. The company claims to have a 100% satisfaction guarantee. They have yet to even acknowledge me.
They have no contact address, or telephone number. Only an email address.

I will agree on the context that I bought a black Fernando Torres Chelsea jersey that the lettering came off very quickly. I just assumed it was because of the dry fit material however the price I paid made me not care very much. This is a case of you get what you paid for. However I also purchased a Liverpool jersey and have zero problems and it's in mint condition with heavy use for over a year.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

"No pain, no gain!" Chirripó by TempNomad
Chirripó Travel Guide: 15 reviews and 28 photos
I went to Costa Rica last summer with an open agenda except for one thing: I had to climb Chirripo! I found a wonderful guide, I recruited a friend, I bought oatmeal and coffee, I had a strong knapsack and a decent coat...and away I went.
Mountains always get to me as it is (see the Sierra Nevada travelogue from Granada), but this particular view brought tears to my eyes. It's always good to get some perspective.
This view was from Ventisqueros, my favorite hike in Chirripo.
If repeling isn't your thing, at least go clambering up as many big rocks as you can. Chirripo allows for many such mini-climbs, and you feel like you're on top of the world. It's very windy; be warned!
- Pros:Views, great fellow travelers, a sense of accomplishment
- Cons:COLD showers, COLD nights, blisters
- In a nutshell:Just Do it!

Mississippi Valley coach Karl Morgan is trying to keep his program's newfound momentum.
The fourth-year coach led the Delta Devils to a 5-6 record last season to gain some respect in the Southwestern Athletic Conference. Mississippi Valley State had a combined 1-20 record in 2010 and 2011.
The Delta Devils return several key players, including preseason All-Southwestern Athletic Conference selections like defensive lineman Robert Simpson, defensive back Kevin Eugene and receiver Julian Stafford.
MVSU had one of the league's best defenses a year ago, but must continue to improve on offense. The Delta Devils were easily the league's worst passing team a year ago and have a three-man race for the job this fall between Patrick Ivy, Carl Davis and Grant Sims.

As the title says, just upgraded from 2.7 to 2.8, and when I go to the "Widgets" section....I see them..I just cant move them! Any help?
As the title says, just upgraded from 2.7 to 2.8, and when I go to the "Widgets" section....I see them..I just cant move them! Any help?
Try deactivating all plugins and check to see if this resolves the problem. If it does, activate the plugins one by one - checking the Widget's section after each re-activation - until you find the problematic plugin(s).
In the upper right corner of your WordPress dashboard, when on the widgets page, try going to Screen Options, then click on "Enable Accessibility Mode"
@bh_WP_fan: won't that just turn the button back on? If the widgets can't be dragged & dropped, something, somewhere, is interfering.
More then likely the problem comes from a plugin as wp in it's deafult flavour would not have that issue.
So best deactivating all plugins and re enable one at a time and check u can drag and drop until you find the one that stops you from being able to drag and drop.
More then likely some plugins will need upgrading to work with 2.8 but that could take time dependent on how well supported the plugin is.
I always recommend deactivating plugins, however, WP 2.8 does show the widgets but won't let you drag and drop them unless you turn on the accessibility mode. Based on the given description I assume this is what is happening. If that didn't work, turning to the plugins and then uploading files again is where my recommendations would go.
however, WP 2.8 does show the widgets but won't let you drag and drop them unless you turn on the accessibility mode.
That's not always true, but the accessibility mode can work in situations where plugins have their own JS files that seem to cause issues with core JS.
I just found that the WPBook was causing my problem. So deactivate, do my moves, and reactivate is the order of the day it seems.
Same problem here, the faulty plugin was "Liz Comment Counter by Ozh"... =(
IntenseDebate Version 2.1.1 was my problem.
yes disabling widgets sorted out my problem, mine was caused by FLickr Badge Widget, it was obviously behaving badly as the remove close buttons didnt disappear, once disabled i was able to move other well behaved widgets into place and then reactivating the flickr badge widget let me drag it into the correct spot.
Enabling accessibility didn't help, couldn't drag anything at all with that on.
e-commerce was the problem here...
It was deactivating the WPMarketer plugin that did the trick on mine. As soon as I reactivate it the widgets are frozen again. I hope they make an update to fix this.
Thank you all. I'll try it all.
I have the same issue, I can't drag and drop widget and I can't use Screen Options, it doesn' work. I disable all the plugin but nothing change...
Deactivating plugins didn't work for me. However, I then installed the use google libraries plugin and I could immediately move my widgets.
WP-Ecommerce shopping cart was my problem also. I noticed there was an upgrade available. So, I did the automatic upgrade, checked out the widgets and they worked.
Dreamwhisper, jolly good ol chap. That worked.
Installing google libraries plugin fixed my problem, for now.
Also look at this thread (the fix repairs a number of admin-panel problems including the widget drag drop problem):

Laguna de Bay, lake, the largest inland body of water in the Philippines, on Luzon just southeast of Manila. Probably a former arm or extension of Manila Bay cut off by volcanism, Laguna de Bay (Spanish: "Lake of the Bay") has a normal area of about 356 square miles (922 square km) and is about 32 miles (51 km) long. Its shallow, crescent-shaped basin is poorly drained by many small streams, and the surrounding low-lying plains are inundated during seasons of heavy rainfall. The Pasig River is the lake's outlet to Manila Bay, 10 miles (16 km) northwest. An important fishing area, with productive wet margins (rice), Laguna de Bay is broken by two peninsulas in the north and dotted by islands; densely settled Talim (9 miles [14 km] long) is the largest. Santa Cruz, Biñan, and Calamba are towns on the lake's southern shore.

The rio Chillar is still as dry as a bone, very little activity along the margins apart from the odd Dragonfly, a few Spotted Flycatchers and the occasional Sardinian Warbler.
Dragonflies and Damselflies
Epaulet Skimmer
I think this could be a male Epaulet Skimmer, Orthetrum chrysostigma. The female of the species is a bright green colour.
And out they all came
They all seemed to come out to play at lunchtime today. There were scores of Serins, gaggles of Goldfinches, bags of bobbers and waggers, Black Redstarts everywhere and even the odd dragonfly putting in an appearance.
A nice day for dragonflies
There were also a few dragonflies about today, as well as the odd Sardinian Warbler in the undergrowth.
Nice Dragonfly by the river
With the return of the water, the odd dragonfly appearing. Rather nice one, this, and quite colourful.
Common Blue Damselflies in the morning
Each morning, as the sun's rays began to illuminate the jungle clearing (lawn), out in force came the Common Blue Damsleflies, Enallagma cyathigerum, the light glistening on their thin wings.
Some different Dragonflies, Part II
A second set of Dragonfly photos, just got to try and identify them all now!

The dragonflies may have all but gone for the moment here in Spain but November in The Gambia was a great time to see them and it is always nice to encounter some new species.

Smith was trained as a painter and stated that his 'sculpture grew from painting'. Many of his sculptures have painted surfaces. In the last two years of his life he painted a series of female figures, using friends as models. He also executed many drawings on this theme. Most of the figures in this series are strictly linear, in black. Very few are modelled in broad areas of colour such as this one. Smith remained interested in the figure throughout his career. The emphasis on verticality in this painting, stressed by the narrowness of the canvas, recalls his upright, abstract 'sentinel' sculptures of the late 50s.

Moblin: Radically Different Netbook Distro
Sync and Settings
One of the most interesting tools bundled with Moblin is Sync, which lets you synchronize data between your netbook and any service that supports the SyncML standard (Figure 6). Out of the box, Sync works with the Funambol, Google, and ScheduleWorld services. Depending on which service you use, you can sync calendar data, contacts, tasks, and to-do lists. Configuring any of the default services is as easy as providing your credentials and specifying the sync direction.
The Settings group acts as a control panel that lets you configure different aspects of the system. The Manage Applications applet lets you install and remove applications from Moblin's software repository with the gpk-application tool. Currently, the software repository doesn't offer a lot, but expect this to change as Moblin matures and gets more traction.
Using the Update Your Computer applet, you can install the available updates, whereas the Software Update Preferences applet allows you to schedule automatic update checks.
Final Word
Of all netbook-specific Linux distros currently in development, Moblin is without a doubt the most interesting. It represents a bold attempt to replace the traditional desktop with an alternative shell designed specifically for small-screen devices. The intuitive interface provides quick access to all essential features and activities, making the computing experience both efficient and enjoyable.
The learning curve is virtually flat, which makes the transition from the traditional desktop pretty painless and could be the key to Moblin's success among typical netbook users. Under-the-hood optimizations and tweaks make Moblin one of the fastest distros around. It boots in a matter of seconds and performs very well. Overall, although Moblin is still not ready for prime time, it shows a lot of promise.

I printed the Groupon barcode and took it to the Cobblestone Surprise location. I waited in line, and when I reached the attendant, he explained that I had to go to another attendant and get back in line.
After reaching the second attendant, I was told that the Groupon was expired even though I followed their directions, and activated the Groupon before it expired. The attendant told me there was nothing that he could do, and I should call a number and they MIGHT be able to do something. Why am I having to call a number and beg for service that I paid for, and did as instructed?
Its obvious that Cobblestone Auto Spa is making using prepaid services extremely difficult, so that they can steal the monies paid without performing any services. [continued below]....
The high-pressure sales at Cobblestone have always been annoying, but now they are just resulting to fraud.
If you need gas, oil changes, or car washes, steer clear of the high-pressure, dishonest people at Cobblestone Auto Spa.
