The 411: Susien Chong Of Lover
Lover, the Aussie brand started by couple Susien Chong and Nic Briand, has, since launching as a stall in Bondi Market in 2001, cultivated an ardent following among fashion types thanks in great part to the line's consistent and clear identity. They are the forebearers of an aesthetic that we've come to think of as "new romantic"—endless swaths of dense French laces and silks (plus, in their forthcoming Fall/Winter Chorus collection, some seriously gorgeous leather) combined with sharp, thoughtful tailoring. Lover's signature femininity and playful irreverence has made it a favorite of not just the editorial set, but also famous style heavyweights like Michelle Williams, Alexa Chung, and the inimitable Miss Kim Gordon. Here Chong, who happens to be as preternaturally cool as the women who favor her clothing, shares what's in her own beauty and wellness toolbox.—Fiorella Valdesolo
The Escape: Qualia, Hamilton Island, Great Barrier Reef
"My partner Nic and I escaped to this oasis in March and experienced the ultimate luxury getaway. Our private villa was perched right in the bushland amongst exotic local flora and fauna and came complete with our own private infinity pool and uninterrupted views of the reef. We cried the day we had to leave but vowed to make it a regular yearly escape."
For more information, see www.qualia.com.au.
The Jogging Path: Central Park
"Central Park shot right to the top of my list of running locations on a recent trip to New York. Peace and tranquility are not words that usually spring to my mind about New York, but it does exist here! I like to head to the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir; the gravel surface is a little softer on the knees than tarmac. Watching the ducks paddle by whilst the sun rises is pure magic!"
The Mani Haven: Bellissimo Nails & Spa
"This salon has a killer hand massage that comes with manicures and pedicures, plus an impossible selection of colors to choose from."
125 Fourth Ave., NYC, (212) 677-2392
The Yoga Studio: Yoga Vida
"I recently became obsessed with their 'FLOW' Vinyasa classes, which are an amazing workout. For those who are musically minded, the fun starts on the weekend with classes that have a live music accompaniment—that's right, flute and sax to help get your yoga groove on."
666 Broadway, NYC, www.yogavida.com
The Skincare Cult Favorite: Clarisonic
"I'm a new convert to the cult of the Clarisonic. I especially like the Clarisonic Plus, which has a bonus brush for buffing the body. Goodbye dry elbows, heels, and knees!"
Available at www.clarisonic.com.
The Dental Routine: Marvis
"I got hooked on the minty taste of their toothpaste after staying at the Bowery Hotel recently, and the old-school packaging sits pretty in our bathroom cabinet."
Available at www.marvismint.com.
The Must-Have Supplement: Powdered Magnesium
"They are a must for me. Great for boosting the system and to help get over fatigue, migraines, and insomnia!"
Available at www.vitaminshoppe.com.
The In-Flight Essential: Sodashi Calming Rose Face Mist
"I was recently converted to this brand after staying at Qualia. The all-natural, chemical-free Australian product line feels incredible on your skin—the mist is great for staying hydrated throughout the day and on long-haul flights."

Intended audience: XHTML/HTML coders (using editors or scripting), script developers (PHP, JSP, etc.), Web project managers, and anyone who wants to better understand how to use the select element for navigation to localized or regional versions of a site.
What are the best practices for using pull-down menus based on the select element to direct visitors to localized content?
As companies and organizations launch an increasing number of localized Web sites, user-friendly global navigation grows in importance.
One of the more popular devices is a pull-down menu on the home page using the select element that includes links to localized versions of the content. Such selection lists are not restricted to use on the home page, but may also be seen as a space-effective way of allowing users to switch between translations or regionally localized sites on a page by page basis.
The localized content pointed to may be an alternative country site, a translated version of a site or page, etc. In this article we avoid discussing the best way to organize the information (ie. translated vs. region-specific sites) in order to concentrate on the pros and cons and best practice associated with using selection lists to choose the content. There are numerous other aspects to global navigation that will be described in other articles.
Note that these recommendations do not apply to selection lists that are part of a form. For example, if you are filling in a form and selecting your country of residence or language from a list, then the selection list should be all in the language of the current page.
Pull-downs can appear very attractive where space is at a premium. However, the pull-down menu is not always the best solution for global navigation and you need to decide whether it is the best solution for your Web site. The following points may help.
The key advantage of using pull-downs is to fit the selection into a smaller space.
Key disadvantages of using select for links to localized pages or sites are:
users may not have fonts for all the option text, and graphics cannot be used instead of text
it is hard to find a label for the list that is not language-specific
users cannot see or access the links straight away
If your site supports only a handful of localized versions, it is probably better to avoid using a pull-down menu altogether and simply include links directly on the page. This gives you more flexibility to use graphics to represent foreign text, avoids the difficulty of finding a suitable non-linguistic label for the list, and allows users to recognize the presence of and link to a page much more quickly.
There are other techniques, too. For example, outline maps can be used to select region- or country-based local sites.
If your pull-down points to more than 20 other sites or pages you should consider whether this is usable for those Web users who must scroll to the end of the list. If not, you may consider linking to a dedicated global gateway page at the home page level. If linking between localized versions of specific pages, a selection page may not be a practical solution.
If you do decide to use a pull-down menu, here are some best practices to keep in mind.
Location. Locate the pull-down menu at or near the top of the page. This location is highly visible, increasing the likelihood that the visitor will see it. Scanning studies for pages in left-to-right scripts show that positioning to the top right increases visibility. Furthermore, an increasing number of Web sites have located their global gateways in this location, conditioning Web users to come to expect it here.
Certainly avoid putting the list at the bottom of the page so that it doesn't appear in the first screenful of information (and bear in mind that one screenful can be a different amount for different users).
Labeling. Come up with a graphic design to serve as a label for the pull-down menu. You cannot expect Web users who are not fluent in English to understand "Select language". Universally recognized icons communicate to people regardless of what language they speak. In an ideal world there would be a widely recognized symbol for this. That time is still not here, though globe icons seem to be becoming more popular.
Examples of possible graphics would include globes, iconic facial profiles with lines to indicate speech, alphabetic characters from multiple scripts (especially for links to translations), etc.
The alt text for such a graphic doesn't have a great deal of importance. You may think that it needs to be in all languages, or no particular language, for accessibility, but in reality people reliant on screen readers would be able to traverse the pull-down text to find the right link.
Using the size attribute. In some cases it may be effective to use the size attribute to display the first set of options in the list – particularly if this is a long list. This suggests to the user that this is a collection of languages/regions, and may remove the need for a non-language-specific label for the list. Here is an example:
Translate options. Translate the menu options into the target language. Instead of including a link on the pull-down menu to a translation that reads, for example, "French" the link should read "français"; and instead of a link to an alternative country site like "Germany" the link should read "Deutschland".
Pay attention to capitalization rules in other languages. Note how the correct translation of "French" is "français" with a lowercase 'f'.
Encoding. To display a mix of non-Latin languages, such as Arabic, Russian and Japanese, you will need a way to represent all the required characters.
Preferably you would use UTF-8 (Unicode) as the encoding for your page, since this encoding supports all the characters you will need. If you cannot use UTF-8, then you should use escapes to represent characters that are not supported by the encoding of your page.
Fonts. You must also think about whether the reader will have fonts to display this range of scripts. Be aware that a Web user in France, for example, may see empty boxes in place of the Japanese text while a user in Japan will see the text just fine. This is because the fonts available on the French user's system may not contain Japanese glyphs. One could argue that this is not too important, since French users don't need to be able to read the Japanese. On the other hand, you may feel that empty boxes are unsightly.
If you feel that empty boxes are unsightly you may be tempted to use text in graphics for non-Latin options. Unfortunately, it is not possible to include graphics in the selection list itself, but some sites add such graphics outside the pull-down menu.
For example:
Be warned, however, that addressing non-Latin text this way may still not solve all problems. Certain accented Latin characters, such as those in 'čeština' may produce the same effect for some users who have Latin fonts that only cover Western European languages.
Descriptions. In some cases you may want to consider following a name of a language or country in native script/language with the name in the language of the current page.
For example:
čeština (Czech)
français (French)
Deutsch (German)
日本語 (Japanese)
Using parentheses is useful because it shows more clearly that this is a clarification.
This approach is not always necessary or desirable. On the other hand users may feel more comfortable with missing font glyphs if they see
Note, also, that names in the language of the current page should really be translated for every page where they appear – if you leave them in English it may give the wrong message.
Ordering. There is also the question of how to order a multilingual list of language or country names. It is not an issue that is specific to selection lists, and there is no simple answer to this.
It is difficult to apply alphabetic ordering since this varies by language, and there are also likely to be multiple scripts involved. It would be possible to follow the default order prescribed by the Unicode Collation Algorithm, but whether that would be helpful, intuitive or recognizable to the user is another question.
Other possibilities are to order the list by the size of your market, the size of the region or number of speakers of a language, or by some kind of geographical principle. Again, while these may provide a rationale for ordering, none of these approaches are necessarily helpful to the user – especially for long lists.
You should not consider automatic content negotiation to be a replacement for providing links on a page. It always makes sense to provide in page links for occasions when things don't work out as expected.
This article is specifically focused on the use of the select element. Some designers may prefer to use JavaScript to simulate pull-down lists. This can help in that you are not limited to text; you can use text in graphics to avoid font issues. There are, of course, other potential problems associated with the use of JavaScript.

Investigators are trying to find out what caused an accident Tuesday morning that killed a man out for a jet ski ride on Lake Anna.
According to witnesses, nearby boaters tried rushing to the man's aid after spotting him in the water. Police tell us the 23-year-old victim crashed just south of Dukes Creek Marina, near Breaknock road in Spotsylvania County.
Witnesses said the man was going over the wake of another jet ski when he went airborne, and the jet ski came back down on him. A reconstruction team with the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries is in the early stages trying to determine exactly how this happened.
Witnesses brought the victim to Dukes Creek Marina right after they saw the crash around 9:00 a.m.
"They immediately helped the victim," said Sgt. Shuler with the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. "They pulled him into the boat, rendered first aid and CPR and brought him back here to meet the first responder."
Crews rushed the man to the hospital. They didn't say if he died in the water or while under medical care.
Dukes Creek Marina General Manager Judy Jones talked to some of the people who performed CPR on the man.
"What I heard is two jet skiers were out there and cut across the wake," said Jones. "One of them went airborne and hit the other individual."
Jones says the man was vacationing on the lake, and he was jet skiing with his brother at the time. Conservation police with the Department of Game an Inland Fisheries say the brother was not hurt. In a friendly place where people can enjoy some fun in the sun, the images of fright and heartbreak from witnesses makes getting back to work very difficult for Jones.
"This day is gone - it's not going to be a productive day in any way, shape, or form," Jones noted. "It weighs on you. You think about it. You think about what can happen in a split second."
Police have not yet released the victim's name.
Anyone operating a motor craft in Virginia is required to take a boaters safety class, unless they meet certain exemptions.

I think it's great that we are all different. Life would be very boring if everybody looked the same. I am an older woman and over judging people by there looks. What ever makes you happy and you don't hurt any one go for it. Live life to the fullest and enjoy it because it is to short to worry about superficial things. Be happy.

Kristen looks great, she has a good figure. She looks like a naturally slim build and her tummy is as flat as a pancake. Lucky her.

first of all: i'm NOT a twilight fan or a teen girl. I was bored and just started reading these comments and i'm kinda shocked... why do you people have to be so mean? I've seen pictures of Kristen before and i've always thought her as a normal person. She sure is skinny, but that she has a body of a little boy? She looks good and she doesn't have massive boobs, but she still gots some, so why are you saying that she's flat? I'm not saying that her body is perfect but i don't see any big flaws and i sure as hell don't see little boys body! People should think more before they judge... I don't like Robert Pattinson much, but i'm not saying bad things about him and calling him names... Maybe some people should grow up and start thinking before opening their mouths or typing something irrelevant. ps. I have a funny feeling, that those who said that Kristen has no boobs and she looks like a boy don't like twilight and are saying nasty things of her only because of that...

Everyone who posted that Kristen has a boyish body, 100% right on. The thing about clothes is it can add things that aren't there. Nude or a swimsuit, they do not hide anything.

It's so funny that whenever there's a pic of a fat girl posted on here. you all sing fake praises like "beautiful", "beautiful natural curves", "real", but when there's a pic of a naturally trim young pretty girl like Kristen, you all gang up on her saying nasty stuff. You all are jealous haters, and that's what makes you ugly, not to mention FAKE. You guys are the reason why there are so many Heidi Montags out there. Btw, fat doesn't translate to "real" or "curvy" get that.

Kristen Stewart said she had to go on a diet and look more "sickly" because she will be playing 'sickly pregnant Bella'. She is naturally slim but she is not usually this skinny. She has more in the chest and butt area normally. This is only for the movie people. She is go back to her normal weight after the movie. Look at how much weight Natalie Portman and Mila lost for the movie Black Swan. They are skin and bones in the book but it's only for the movie because it's not natural. i agree! people, she was on a diet, and it's clear she lost a lot of weight....

Kristen gave an interview with People magazine about this weight topic. She was ordered by Summit to lose a lot of weight for the breaking dawn role. So she changed her diet and started to drop pounds. Bella has to look really thin and close to death *SPOILER* when she is pregnant with Renesmee. That's why Kristen looks so thin in the pictures, it's Bella not Kristen. Taylor Lautner had to go on a diet and get lots of muscles to play Jacob in New Moon after Twilight. Summit made him do it. It's not their faults stop blaming them for their bodies.

ok well to a comment that said that all kristen stewart fans were teens who had her body type or were fat girls, even if that was truth your point is???? first of all i'm 19 i'm tall i'm not skinny but i'm not fat either and if i were what does that have to do with my liking of kristen so relax yourself before you comment because some of the things i see here are just kstew haters desperately trying to bash her so yeah

It's funny that *anytime* anyone says something even slightly critical of Kristen, the Krisbians come out and say everyone else is jealous. Um, no. I'm not jealous of her body. The only thing I am jealous of is her bank account. She looks unhealthy, but she hasn't looked healthy since she began filming the Runaways.

Love this comment from other person - A real woman doesn't classify as someone with large breasts and a big @#$%. Some woman are born naturally skinny and perfectly healthy. Kristen is one of them, she's not sick or disgusting to look at like some models who are clearly anorexic. Stop hating on woman without curves, and stop hating on woman with curves. Woman are different sizes Woman with curves and woman without are both good and healthy. neither is better. and both are Real woman.

I think people are making comments about Kristen's body because it's so shockingly flat. She looks so much better in clothes. In the picture with the black bra she looks like a little girl that just started growing breasts. When we see her with clothes, she usually looks more filled out than that. Maybe she wears padded bras and a butt pad regularly. Man, I used to be jealous of her body but not anymore. Just like everything in Hollywood it was just smoke and mirrors. This is pretty disappointing.

Kristen Stewart fans are either young teens with the same body type (barely just got through puberty) or fat girls who think any skinny body is attractive. They just attack any body who states an honest comment about her body. The girl is flat all over and not even athletic. It's like skinny fat people who have no tone. She's not attractive to MOST of the male population. But there are small group of guys who like boyish bodies (like her boyfriend) just like there are a small group of guys who like fat girls.

Wow some people are really critical and harsh. comments like no boobs and hips etc...what you need to look like JLo or the kardashian chick in order to be sexy??? i have no issues with hips and boobs but I also don't belive you have to have large ones in order to be sexy. Kristens body is natural and it is very femenine. Yeah hips are not big but she has a nice petite frame. Stop being to critical of each other wow this is why girls as young as 9 years old are on diets and sick with body issues. I think Kristen is sexy and pretty. ROB IS ALSO SEXY

i personally think she looks great and i agree so much with HeleneB, i've seen pictures of kstew and she has a good ass and she has hips too and just beacuse she doesn't have a big chest doesn't mean she looks like a boy i think she's really pretty and really sexy in her own way!

K-stew looks like a boy in drag in some of those pics. If you cover her face, her entire body looks just boyish. Don't think she even needs a bikini, she can just walk around naked and I don't think people would notice. Don't see the curves people are talking about. You don't need to have big breasts or a big behind just SOME curves so you don't look too manish or asexual.

I don't think those are all scenes from the movie. Would Edward really be jumping in in his Fruit of the Loom boxer briefs? And Kristen's Bella extensions are not in. I think they were just hanging out while not filming. For the record, I think they both look great. Some women do not have big chests, and some men, who are still real men, don't care about that.

To 2,9&11, What the heck r u talking about? Okay she's not gifted in the upper part but she has a Robust Butt and has hips. In that pics, the bottom side is not clear but look at her hips. If you just saw Adventureland and WTTR, Gosh, KStew has it!!! You just google it.

This is the best looking rash guard that I've ever worn (cyan), and it fit really well. (6'4 200 lb frame, wore a large). Sizing is a little on the tight side.

The Vibrant Rebirth of a Classic Game 0
Until I borrowed a copy of Metroid: Zero Mission, the only Metroid game I'd ever played in any great detail was Metroid Prime on the Gamecube. Even before Prime I knew Metroid well by reputation, though: its use of special items to gain access to new areas previously inaccessible wasn't the first such design, but its platformer accessibility helped make the name Metroid itself synonymous with that idea. Watching someone do a run-through of Super Metroid I had the urge to see where the franchis...2 out of 2 found this review helpful.
How Remakes Ought To Be Done 0
Yoshio Sakamoto, after a successful return to the Metroid series with Metroid Fusion, brought even more love to the GameBoy Advance with Metroid Zero Mission, a remake of the one that started it all. Game design philosophy, let alone the technology, had changed dramatically during the 20 year span between the original and the remake, but the fundamental ideas are still as green as ever. The combination of traditional and progressive design results in a 2D action game that retains ...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
Not-Quite-20th Anniversary Celebration 0
Those of you old enough to remember playing the original Metroid (kindergarten graduation!), will notice many references to the original and also recognize many of the locales. But don't think the game is over with Mother Brain, because it's not. This is no simple remake. It seems that in the grand story of Samus Aran, the original NES Metroid was a summarized version of history while Zero Mission goes into a little more detail about what happened before, during, and after the Mother Bra...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
Fantastic, with one massive, crippling drawback. 0
The ShortPros- Remake of the original Metroid game for the GBA- Same basic levels, areas, and bosses but with refined controls and abilities- Manages to blend both nostalgia and modern conventions flawlessly- Difficulty setting is appreciated (Metroid games tend to be easy...)- Exploration, atmosphere, and music are all kept intact- Can be sequence broke, which I missed from Metroid Fusion- Adds a bit more backstory to Samus' origins, which is appreciated- Another excellent 2D metroid gameCons- ...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
There still is some Metroid in it, but lacks athmosphere 0
Metroid Zero Mission is a remake of the original Metroid from the NES that was released some years after Metroid Fusion. Aside from the first few rooms and the boss fight against Mother Brain however, there really isn't all that much noticable reassemblence to the original NES Metroid. This is especially true since you are given almost all the weapons from Super Metroid, which in turn change the flow of the game quite a bit compared to the NES original.In terms of overall game mechanics it basi...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Metroid: Symphony of the Fight! 0
Super Metroid! There's a double meaning to behind those words: Super Metroid for the SNES was a phenomenal game in its own right, but was also one of the best SNES games ever made. Metroid: Zero Mission builds on that same, excellent gameplay which is still as fun as a first time through the original Super Metroid. The graphics are quite reminiscent of the SNES game, but have been improved for the 32-bit platform of the GBA. The images and animation are sharp, and the effects are what you have ...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
A Screw Attack to the Cerebral Cortex 0
Go immediately left from at the start of Metroid: Zero Mission and you'll find the Morph Ball upgrade exactly where it was in the original Metroid. The remake modernizes the first adventure of galactic bounty hunter Samus Aran, bringing it to the standards set by one of the greatest games of all time: Super Metroid.The game from there applies the legendary SNES classics structure as Samus navigates the depths of the planet Zebes, finding new weapons that allow her to go further, tearing through ...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
Metroid Zero Mission 0
Metroid: Zero Mission is a remake of the original game and a very good one at that. All of the original and newer bosses, weapons, levels, and that classic feeling of exploration made their way into this game. For what is it worth (probably $20 at your local Gamespot/EB) this game is amazing! Now, many people will tell you that the game is short; 3-5 hours the first time through. In fact, I will tell you, "Yeah, the game is short." But... If you want to collect all of the extras, you'll find ...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.

GREEN BAY (WKOW) -- If you want to go to a Green Bay Packers game next season, expect to pay a little more for tickets.
The Packers are increasing the prices by either $2 or $5, depending on the seat location in Lambeau Field. According to Packers president Mark Murphy, the increases will keep ticket prices about average for the NFL.
End-zone seats are increasing by $2 to $74. Tickets from the 20-yard line to the end zone are increasing $5 to $85. Seats between the 20-yard lines will also go up $5 to $97. Prices for the new South End seats are $82 and $89.
Murphy says the revenue is important to keep the Packers competitive in the league. Murphy says the team also wants to be fair to visiting teams in terms of shared revenue. One-third of all ticket revenue goes to the visiting team.
Invoices are being sent to season-ticket holders this week.

Some East Texans are gearing up to make a trip to Austin on Monday and Tuesday, all in support of legislation that would increase restrictions on abortions in Texas.
Participants will attend the "Stand 4 Life" rally Monday evening outside the State Capitol, in favor of bills that were defeated by a filibuster in the first special session.
But East Texans said after thousands of protestors filled the Capitol against Senate Bill 5, it is now their turn to be heard.
"It's important that we meet them there and show the nation and the world that Texas women are in favor of this legislation," said Emily Nicholson, who will make the trip to Austin for the rally. "We will show them that we will turn out in support of it."
If passed, key points of House Bill 2 and Senate Bill 1 would ban most abortions after twenty weeks and require clinics to meet ambulatory surgical center standards.
"You would have the same standards at an abortion clinic that you would have at a place you would get your colonoscopy," said Tyler State Representative Matt Schaefer. "I don't think that's too much to ask."
But the bill has met opposition of major medical groups, including the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the Texas Medical Association and the Texas Hospital Association.
"We should listen to the physicians who know what's happening and know about women's healthcare," said D. Karen Wilkerson of the Texas Democratic Party. "I certainly don't want a legislator with a law degree making a decision that affects someone's health care."
Nicholson said she believes in the lawmakers intention and believes the bill will make strides to improve services that are offered.
"The slogan for pro choice activists throughout decades has been safe, rare, legal," she said. We're talking about simply making them safe."
Wilkerson said the bill is a move that attempts to subvert the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade.
"We're going to make it impossible for people to get what is their legal right if they choose to make that terrible decision," she said.
With the spotlight now on Texas, Schaefer said it is time to send a message.
"We want people to know that there are a lot of people in Smith county, in East Texas, Tyler and Bullard that do stand for life," he said.
Monday's "Stand 4 Life" rally, organized in-part with Schaefer's office, is one of two separate pro-life events taking place at the Capitol.
Other East Texans will be leaving on a bus trip to Austin on Tuesday morning. That trip is organized by local churches and includes transportation to the Capitol free of charge.

I check the box that would allow someone to only vote once, however my poll has been allowing multiple votes and the analysis page shows the same IP for all votes so how can I determine who the multiple votes are to delete them? This is a contest for a scholarship, so I need to make sure it is fair and when one or two have 10,000 votes in a few hours and another has 30, something fishy is up. Does anyone know how I can find the true IP info for these votes?

Hadley Police have an unusual crime on their hands, and they say young children helped make it happen. Hadley patrolman Mitchell Kuc says their Best Buy was recently robbed by two adults, with the help of three young children.
According to witnesses, a single child entered the Hadley Best Buy, then grabbed several electronic items and put them in a single spot within the store.
Kuc says the two adult suspects then entered the store with two younger children, who then ran around and distracted store employees as the adults put the items in a stroller and left.
Kuc says the couple may have stolen several thousand dollars worth of electronic items. Police say they drove away in a gray vehicle, possibly a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry.
Anyone with information is asked to call Hadley Police at (413) 584-0883.

My 2013 reel. My contributions varied per shot, but I tried to only include shots where I had significant involvement, whether it be Motion Design, Art Direction, 3D Animation, Compositing, or all of the above.Art Direction, Motion Graphics, Visual Effects2013
This is pitch work, but unfortunately was never used. Created at Goodby, Silverstein & Partners. The brief I was given was "Do an short video explaining what you like about Google Chrome.". From there, I came up with the concept, Art Direction, and Animation. I slapped the audio on after the fact, just for presentation purposes.
Music by Oskar Schuster – "Sneeuwland"Animation, Art Direction, Motion Graphics2013
Initially created for 3 different banner sizes, I decided to create an HD version as well, since the RED footage held up nicely. The fruit rolling was shot individually and in small groups on green screen, along with the pear dropping into the water. From there, I did all compositing and animation.
Concept: XYZ GraphicsAnimation, Motion Graphics, Visual Effects2012
Created at Goodby, Silverstein & Partners. I did the 3D Animation, layout, and rendering of the shot in Maya from the skylight to the car, and joined it to the airplane shot, which was done in C4D by another artist.Animation, Visual Effects2013
Web video for Joos Solar Charger (2010). Role: Motion Design
Concept/Design/Art Direction by Manual CreativeMotion Graphics2011
This was a mad dash that we did from start to finish in about 2.5 weeks. It ran on outdoor screens in Vegas for the "Sprint Miracle Mile" event. I did the initial lighting/render pass setup for the vehicles, and animated the freeway overpass shots and a couple others... and various things I probably don't remember that went on during the late nights.

Our friends at PodTech took some time to attend the West Coast Launch of the Vectrix electric motorcycle. They chat for a bit, and then take the bike for a spin around San Francisco. The most interesting part for me was when the PR guy from Vectrix said that he thought $11,000 was a good price point for the mexican rx cialis low priced value their offering. I mean, maybe in the Bay Area, but not in the rest of the country. But that doesn't change the fact that they're "having trouble keeping them in stock." I'm not saying I don't want one, I'm just saying I want one for $5000 less.Also, it was interesting to hear how the regenerative breaking system works. Instead of complicated generators surrounding the wheel hub, the Vectrix simply reverses it's electric engine. So by pulling backward on the throttle, the engine becomes the generator. Simplicity!

Santa's reputation was being ripped all to shreds.
His world was crumbling; the prospects were grim,
Everywhere he turned, the tabloids badgered him.
He was all over the newspaper, Internet and TV,
On the front page of the Enquirer and that dirty TMZ.
The North Pole Police made sure he was protected from the laws,
But the online Daily Beast reported he was cheating on Mrs. Claus.
It started on Thanksgiving when he came home from the pub,
And Mrs. Claus met him at the front door with a club.
"Hey, Sweetie Pie," he cooed, "you're sure lookin' good,"
Then she whacked him in the teeth with a Big Bertha wood.
She chased him from the house like a furious cyclone,
And screamed, "Who're all these women programmed into your cell phone?"
Santa jumped on his sleigh; he was trying to flee,

Mountain Biking/ Cycling
We think we have got some of the best mountain biking in the world, and the roads around here are brilliant for road bikers. If you're looking for a family day out, the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal is perfect for a relaxed cycle.
Many of our cottages have the accredited Cyclists Welcome Award, which means they have made a safe area for bike storage, washing and maintenance, and provide information about the many routes available across the Brecon Beacons, The Black Mountains and the Black Mountain.
Bikes and Hikes now offer 'Paddle and Pedal' days. You can hire bikes and canoes from them and they will deliver the canoes to Talybont and Pencelli to link up with your cycle route, so you can spend a day partly on the stunning trails, tow path and quiet roads, and partly canoeing along the canal.

When a business or individual is unable to pay debts as and when they fall due and/or when liabilities exceed the value of assets, they are in law considered to be 'Insolvent'.
If a business is experiencing financial difficulties, Bishop Fleming can act on a consultancy basis to review the situation and advise upon solutions that seek to rescue the business from financial disaster.
A formal insolvency procedure entered into by a Ltd Company or LLP to settle debts with creditors, often with the aim of continuing to trade. A CVA is promoted with the assistance of an Insolvency Practitioner, such as Bishop Fleming, who may be appointed as Supervisor by the creditors.
A formal insolvency procedure entered into by unincorporated Partnership to settle debts with creditors, often with the aim of continuing to trade. A PVA is promoted with the assistance of an Insolvency Practitioner, such as Bishop Fleming, who may be appointed as Supervisor by the creditors.
In many cases, an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) is a suitable alternative to bankruptcy for individuals and sole traders. Unlike Bankruptcy, an IVA means that you may be able to retain some of your assets – such as your house or car – and be free of the restrictions associated with bankruptcy; which means you can still act as the Director of a company (for example).
A formal court procedure started by an individual, sole trader or creditors thereof (owed at least £750). Your assets are sold to pay your creditors (usually with the exception of your personal belongings), the contents of your home and tools of your trade unless they have a high value. Bankruptcy is dealt with by a Licensed Insolvency Practitioner or by a government official called the "Official Receiver".
There are three types of liquidation – Compulsory Liquidation, Creditors Liquidation and Members Voluntary Liquidation and all refer to the close down of the company (also known as "winding up"). The differences are explained below:
A creditor may initiate a compulsory liquidation of a business such as a LTD company, LLP or Partnership by approaching the Court with a "winding up petition". The Court will appoint a government official called the "Official receiver" to interview the directors or owners of the business. If the Official Receiver finds that the creditors grounds for compulsory liquidation are correct, the Official receiver will handle the liquidation. However, if the Official Receiver finds that there are enough assets in the business to pay a private Insolvency Practitioner, they will elect one to undertake the compulsory liquidation. The Insolvency Practitioner is bound by law to distribute any remaining funds amongst the creditors. If the majority creditor/s are unhappy with the Courts' choice of Insolvency Practitioner, they have the right to elect an alternative of their choice.
When a LTD company or LLP is insolvent and the directors or owners decide that their business should be closed, they must voluntarily instruct an Insolvency Practitioner such as Bishop Fleming to administer the liquidation of the business. However, the majority creditors have the ultimate right to decide who acts as liquidator. When an Insolvency Practitioner is appointed, the Directors are relived of their duties but have a responsibility to cooperate with the appointed liquidator. A CVL is quick and often considered more a favourable route than a compulsory liquidation for obvious reasons.
If a LTD company or LLP is solvent, but the directors/owners wish to close the company, perhaps to release equity, they can undertake a Members Voluntary Liquidation by appointing an Insolvency Practitioner such as Bishop Fleming. The Insolvency Practitioner will administer the formalities to distribute funds in the most tax efficient way.
Administration starts with the appointment of an administrator to rescue a going concern that is experiencing financial difficulties to achieve a better result for creditors (than would be achieved through a liquidation), or, to realise the assets or property to benefit of the secured and/or preferential creditors. The Court, the debenture holder/s or the Directors can appoint an administrator.
We have been appointed to a number of companies to act as liquidator. A particular aspect of the last twelve months has been our appointment as investigating accountant, to determine breaches of legislation and recoverability of assets.

New head coach Marc Trestman addressed the media Thursday, saying he will embrace the challenge of getting the Bears to regular contention and he cannot wait to work with Jay Cutler.
Bears General Manager Phil Emery was excited to introduce his pick for head coach on Thursday, citing Trestman's skills as a professional, creativity and mental toughness as what set him apart.
SEE: Bears choose CFL`s Marc Trestman as new head coach
The general manager described the new head coach as a guy who cares about people. Emery said Trestman's own personal growth set him apart as well as his ability to get the best out of his players.
"Do not underestimate Marc Trestman as a competitor," Emery said.
The Bears GM outlined the hiring process he went through in great detail and delineated the reasons why other candidates were considered and eventually taken out of the running.
Emery called Trestman a champion, as someone who will bring the team to success.
He said he cannot wait to see what the new head coach can do with a team that has such a critical - but loyal - following.
When Trestman stepped up to the podium, one of the first things he said was how excited he was to coach the Bears, who have such a passionate fan base. He said he is ready to give the city a team that plays tough, physical, disciplined football.
"I do feel the passion. I do feel the urgency," Trestman said. "Man, do I feel the commitment to win."
Trestman said the city is going to have a locker room of guys who work hard and are humble, and he cannot wait to get started.
"I get to do the job I have the most fun with," Trestman said. "I get to be the team's compass and road map - or in modern day terms, I get to be the GPS system of the team.
"Every day our team will know where we are, where we're going, and how we're going to get there," Trestman continued. "We're going to put a team together that the city of Chicago and its fan base will be very, very proud of."
The new head coach also spoke on how excited he is to work with quarterback Jay Cutler. Trestman wants to nurture Cutler's skills, and turn him into the elite player he knows he can be.
Trestman described Cutler as tough, smart and said he knows he loves football. He can't wait to work with the quarterback.
The former Alouettes offensive coordinator said Bears football will be no-nonsense moving forward, and accountability will be top of mind. Known as a creative leader, Trestman will find new ways to improve the Bears offense, and sustain the integrity of the excellent defense.
Trestman has received nothing but praise from his contemporaries, and from players he has worked with previously. He is described as a man who loves the game and loves to coach football.
One of those players has local ties - Jarrett Payton, son of former Chicago Bear Walter Payton. He spoke with Good Day Chicago on Thursday morning.
SEE: Jarrett Payton speaks to what Marc Trestman can do for the Chicago Bears
Trestman addressed the fact that he does come from the Canadian Football League, but stressed that he did spend over a decade in the NFL. He plans to surround himself with a coaching team that is quite familiar with how American football is played, to help make the best decisions to guide the Bears.
Trestman hesitated making any other specific comments about the personnel he has in his locker room, because he says he doesn't know them yet.
"I'm going to help my team master their craft," Trestman said. "All I'm asking in return is their effort."
Trestman said the work begins as soon as they are done with Thursday's interview process. He said they have a lot of decisions to make. Although defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli has made the choice to leave, so the position to lead the defense into the next season is now open.
The new head coach promised to craft the team Chicago deserves, and is determined to get straight to work.

text: This recipe is so simple, yet soooo delicious! I've been making panini's for lunch for quite a while now, because they are a quick and balanced lunch option and they are ready in minutes! It wasn't until I made this Pizza Panini for my sister that I realized I needed to share it with all of you! She was so excited about the sandwich in fact, that it honestly made me laugh! I said, 'geez, it sounds like you've never had lunch before!' She replied, 'No, this is just one really good sandwich. It's like a healthy slice of pizza!' Well imagine that, a sandwich that tastes as good as a slice of pizza, and it just so happens to be quick, easy and healthy too!

LAS VEGAS -- How many more sensors can wearable tech bear? Netatmo, showcasing at CES 2014, has a new wrinkle: skin protection. The bedazzled June has an embedded UV sensor that syncs with a phone app to tell you how much sun is too much.
The app personalizes the sensor's data with questions to determine your exposure safety levels, and then the band automatically pings from there. It's hard to tell how it works in action, but it's a unique angle to wearables. As for the design? The leather band and metal alloy crystal-like sensor housing, which has a USB connector underneath, seem a little on the flashy side.
The June will be available in Q2 of this year for $99.

UNDATED (WSAU) The Wisconsin Family Action group says it will press on with its lawsuit to strike down the state's legal protections for same-sex couples. Now that Republicans have full control at the State Capitol, there's talk that the Legislature will repeal the domestic partner registry that Democrats put in place 15 months ago.
But the gay rights' group Fair Wisconsin says it won't take those efforts lying down. Director Katie Belanger believes hope group has momentum on its side. And she says they'll keep working to quote, "address the lack of legal protections that same-sex couples face in this state every day."
Belanger says Governor-elect Scott Walker and his lieutenant Rebecca Kleefisch have been very clear in their opposition to domestic partnerships. And they'll be prepared to defend the registry. Some G-O-P lawmakers say it's not a priority at the moment – because voters made it clear that they want the state's budget and economic problems to be addressed first.
But Assembly Democrat Penny Bernard-Schaber of Appleton believes the G-O-P will try to end the domestic partner registry – which gives same-sex couples about one-fifth the legal benefits of married couples.

LAS VEGAS – With all that's transpired for his old man in the past month, Austin Rivers has been engulfed with issues of his own. Like the Celtics faithful and Clippers fans, the younger Rivers was closely monitoring the month-long ordeal involving Doc Rivers, Danny Ainge, and the Clippers.
The deal is done now. Doc is coaching the Clippers and was checking out his summer league team before bolting to New York while the Celtics have moved on with Brad Stevens and a revamped roster. As for Austin, things are pretty much the same personally; he remains with the New Orleans Pelicans but is here in Las Vegas with an agenda.

JOPLIN -- Five Pitt State players scored in double figures as the Gorillas pulled away in the second half for an 85-75 victory over pesky Avila Saturday (Nov. 17) in the Chris Tucker Memorial Classic.
The Gorillas (3-0) trailed 59-58 with 8:39 to play in the game and Pitt State held onto a tenuous 69-66 lead with 5:52 remaining against the Eagles (3-3) before capitalizing on a 7-2 run to gain separation.
Courtney Ingram, Rico Pierrevilus and Kaleb Porter each scored 14 points for Pitt State, while Marky Nolen (13) and A.J. Adams (10) also scored in double figures.
The Gorillas outscored the Eagles 34-18 at the foul line in a game slowed by 57 personal fouls. Pitt State converted 34 of 45 charity shots in the contest.
Avila got a game-high 17 points from Brandon Redmond, while Lance Miller and Curtis Churchman added 16 apiece.
Pitt State will return home for a Tuesday (Nov. 20) match-up against Newman. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. (CST) at John Lance Arena.

Aries-March 21-April 19
Resolve to let petty annoyances move past you without attaching. A light touch goes a long way. You are a proven leader and champion. Why let negative forces suck you dry at this point? It's all in the choices we make. Think positive, create positive. Think negative, create negative. Keep your mind batteries charged up.
Taurus-April 20-May 20
Get a second wind. March on to the finish line. Look at each year like a race. Pace yourself going around the first and second turns. Then, when you see the finish line, get a second wind and continue on and finish your race or project. Nothing else is acceptable if you want to be a winner. You have it in you. Go for it.
Gemini-May 21-June 21
Follow through with inspirations that flow from your heart. Pursue your plans with gusto. Sometimes it just takes patience to hang in and trust your own instincts and the universe. This isn't easy. Just because you can't see immediate results doesn't mean something good isn't happening. You are about to be blessed.
Cancer-June 22-July 22
Keep your cool when others around you are losing theirs. The eye of the hurricane is the safest place to be in a storm. Stay centered. Know that this too, shall pass. Positive results come from focused energy. Keep inspiring others around you to do their best. A kind word goes a long way. Yours are the kindest.
Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
When you get that right feeling nothing can slow you down on your march to victory. You have an awesome reservoir of love, passion and desire. Your strong belief in doing things right is your strongest legacy. You have so many wonderful dreams. It is time to make them happen. You can do it. It's your destiny.
Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Refuse to let the occasional storms of life set you back. Just be patient and trust your instincts when decisions have to be made. Keep striving for a better life. When you get that little buzz in the head that tells you something isn't right, listen to and trust it. Foresight is better than hindsight. Yours is right on.
Libra-Sept. 23-Oct. 22
You have a strong connection with spirit. It is easy for you to keep moving in the right direction. Listen to and trust your first impressions. They are never wrong. Be patient and let them work. This is your higher self talking. It is far wiser than the lower will, the ego. It just takes practice to get on the winning side of life.
Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Take a look at all your options and then let your heart decide which ones to pursue. You are flexible. The desire to excel comes from your breeding, education, experience and motivation. You have all these requirements for success. Now, it is time to put them into forward motion and make your dreams come true.
Sagittarius-Nov. 22-Dec. 21
You are a pioneer like the old voyagers on the sea of life. You aren't afraid to venture into the unknown in your quest for a better life. You are an inspiration to others of like mind who want to move forward and be free. The changes you make on the inside, become living in the heart, take root and grow new life. Keep on.
Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Your decision making powers are strong. Why? Because you focus on the most important issues first. This makes you a winner in the game of life. When you need new knowledge you find it and put it to good use. You want a lot out of life. You will continue to get it. Why? Because you give so much first. Good job.
Aquarius-Jan. 20-Feb. 18
You have a lot of courage, loyalty and compassion. Recent successes make you want more out of life. You can have it. All it takes is a purpose, a plan and positive action. You are always there for your friends. Your heart is open and your spirit is strong. All this strengthens your causes and justifies your life.
Pisces-Feb. 19-March 20
Nothing is ordinary with you. Your life is a grand adventure. Continue on. Bring your greatest visions into created realities. You are magical. You know how to turn your dreams into physical forms. This power has been living in your heart since birth. Keep the vision, move forward and life will continue to bless you.
