Wild…this year is quickly coming to an end and a great one is also quickly approaching.
I feel great about all the art I created in 2012. I do feel I could have done even more. I hope this year 2013 I exceed my expectations. I have some pretty awesome projects lined up for 2013. I have a couple in the next few days that I will be sharing as well. For now, here are my favorite pieces of 2012 so far from me series as Timoi, Killer Calo Series, India and Isabella Gottlieb.
This one is a collaboration with India, Timoi and Isabella Gottlieb painted at Kilometro Cero Galeria in the Palacio Nacional Guatemala.
This one, Bendita Maldicion (Blessed curse) was painted in an old army base in Xela, Guatemala. Some blessings come in the form of a curse. Here this character by India is being whispered stories by the Mayan Twins Hunahpu and Xlabanque. This is another collaboration between India, Timoi and Gottlieb…
This is another favorite by India. Siyah, which means black in Turkish. Siyah is a love name India gave one of her imaginary boyfriends. No matter which direction India took, there was Siyah…always on her mind.
This might be my most favorite by India. In a few words it depicts Orions belt, Betelgeuse, Venus, Milky way, Cerebral Spectrum, Mayan gods and the Creator. All very important aspects in the life of Mayan based on the Popol Vu and conversations with my people.
Gottlieb does not have much to show for, but this is my favorite thus far. A woman sitting naked on her couch having a glass of wine, pensive.
This one is a collaboration with Spaint EKS from Guatemala and Timoi from teh KC Series. This piece was dedicated to the Guatemalan Master Efrain Recinos and to the feminine spirit. This mural is located just block from the Palacio Nacional.
This one is a portrait of Model MJ Alvarez. I love this one especially because of the technique….you can really see the technique here. I also love this one because of the memory. The business owner threatened me to sue me if I continue to paint…haha…This was painted in Guatemala. I had the last laugh, since I knew the building owner.
I love this one because it depicts Day of the Dead for Guatemala. A slightly different tradition from the rest of Latin America. It is a Mayan tradition to fly kites. Kites are used to scare off evil spirits that come to bother our deceased and also to transmit messages to our ancestors. On this painting Calo is flying a kite in a cemetery she created where she summons her past loved one and some of her favorite people like Bruce Lee or Nikolas Tesla. The cemetery is located by the tree of life and the Milky way, which is believed to be the road souls take after death.
My lovely and gorgeous Holy Death.
My Altar for Day of the Dead created for the new Grand Park in front of City Hall in Los Angeles.
I don't do much pieces, but I love this one.
Portrait of Ms. 3…I love her. I painted this on the floor…not bad…not bad.
OMG…my pollito….I didn't know how cute a lil chick could be…One day I will have chickens as pets. They are so full of soul and love…how can anyone not see!!!
This is one of my favorite because of it's location.
This is a digital piece. This is a character of Isabella Black Valentine, a black widow from England who migrated to the Mayan ruins in ancient times. Collects hearts in a jar. Some have gotten away but sooner or later she will have them…Isabella BV is a hermaphrodite originally from Ethenz who acquired the black widow traits on earth. More on her later…
I might do a blog on my favorite moments of 2012…maybe….
Thanks for visiting!
Miss 3 getting ready for her gallery opening. She has been working hard for this day. You wont want to miss the experience of what it is to walk into her gallery. She has invited female artists from all walks of life to showcase their work. It's an installation she has been working on for a few months.
This one reminds me of you.
The first 25 people will receive an original piece of art by Miss 3…
Today I visited my friend Ms. 3, an amazing artist and one of the most beautiful toughest and sweetest people I know. She is the bad mama who is super sexy , is as real you as you can get, will cut you if you get in her way and saves animals lives even if it costs her time, money, energy and the awkward looks of insensitive human beings. Her and her lovely wife Kenya are opening a gallery in South LA this January and it's going to be amazing. Ms. 3 has been working hard on her art, which I would show you but you will have to wait for the opening of the gallery… It blew me away.
I painted this character of her because she is a true soulful being that I love and admire. I had to add her to my Killer Calo series. Immortalize her in my work. You cannot find her online, but her shows get super packed and she is infamous without the internet. She doesn't believe in FB or any other social network and I truly admire that in this day and age.
Below is just one sculpture she did with the cast of my body. The above character of her was inspired by this series of hers below, which she has plenty of more posted around the gallery.
I cannot post more photos of her yet, so here is this simple one. She was mad happy with the character I created of her as it captures her essence.I really want to share more photos of her as she is super beautiful and super sexy. Photos of her to be shared soon plus better photos of the art piece. Thanks!
Below is her artist statement.
"ART is another form of communication in which artists speak the words that were never created by the intellectuals. Art will be the most important thing left in this fucked up world because it not only has meaning but it also captures a piece of the artists soul. I, BELL3 was in infected with art and now I am ready to show the world my infection.
The art within art is the wound that we were created in, the woman that gave us birth is the only true artist. Every woman has an inner artist that creates peaces of art called children. The creators who never get enough credit, the women that were suppressed for hundreds of years, this is for you.
The only true thing in this world is never seen and never heard but only felt and only through that feeling is the energy that I create my art." Ms. 3 (Bell)
Thank you for visiting! Be creative, unique, original, bold, innovative, true, have integrity, be groovy and stay real with a big heart.

Thank you Pocha and Victor Peña…
Thanks to all who visited me…hope you enjoyed it.

The original piece is worth a read.
Bullet-point summary (content exclusively by Jonathan Naughton, the Guardian):
- Once upon a time, aerial warfare consisted of guys climbing into aircraft and flying bombing missions over enemy territory. Now many, if not most, of the lethal missions mounted by the USAF are carried out by unmanned drones flying high over Afghanistan and Pakistan and piloted by uniformed guys sitting in computerised consoles in New Mexico.
- More interestingly, it turns out that the stress levels for these pilots are unexpectedly high. A Pentagon study has found, for example, that 29% of them suffer from "burnout". A co-author of the study says that the air force tries to recruit people who are emotionally well-adjusted, "family people" with "good values". But "when they have to kill someone, or where they are involved in missions and then they either kill them or watch them killed, it does cause them to rethink aspects of their life".
- So maybe Heidegger was wrong [when he argues 'that technology is, in essence, a way of organising the world so that one doesn't have to experience it'].
- But there is one new form of warfare where Heidegger's insight might turn out to be more relevant. It's called cyberwarfare. The ability to destroy a country's infrastructure – to bring down its electricity grid or disrupt water supplies by hacking into the computers that run these systems – offers a nation the prospect of waging war without incurring either physical or psychological risks for the aggressor's citizens: casualty-free war, if you like…
Content analysis:
- As many in the comments section have pointed out, Naughton admits he didn't really 'get' this hardcore philosophic work (nor has he the training to analyse), so continuing, prior to a re-read or clarification report, WAS A MASSIVE ERROR.
- The subhead and end commentary suggests that drones produce 'casualty-free' wars. You don't need to be a Mr. Chomsky or Mr. Foucault to realise that NO WAR IS CASUALTY-FREE. Even if one side is casualty free - HISTORY MATTERS. If infrastructure, stability, resources, systems, etc. are (remotely) destroyed, there will be fallout and likely redistributive violence (general reference: Charlie Wilson's War, ie: Cold War and post-Cold War US 'intervention' in Afghanistan).
- The Western-centric idea of reducing casualty and psychological effects of war is just, well, lies. There is no war that will be free of adverse effects. The idea of reducing the adverse effects for the West completely negates the existence, the humanity, of the Rest (see Judith Bulter or Hannah Arendt on the concept of 'the other')

Anneka - Shut Her Down (Sepia Remix) Free Download
Sepia's bouncy house remix of 'Shut Her Down' by Anneka, now up for free download.
Sepia's bouncy house remix of 'Shut Her Down' by Anneka, now up for free download.
JDevious absolutely put it down on BTL TV last week with an Uber dope selection and great mixing. Not a lot more needs to be said really, if you have even the slightest penchant for 'ip-'op then feast your ears on this…
Now with added tracklist!
FREE DOWNLOAD: Deft's fresh reworking of my second favourite Snoop & Dre track complete with panic inducing 'oh-shit-did-I-just-press-a-wrong-button' moment.
Bobby Champs is most definitely somebody to keep your eye on. His first release for Pictures Music was absolutely storming; 'All Night' has been in nearly every set we've done since we got it.
His set for BTL the other week was one of those where we wished he was using Serato, just so we didn't have to keep asking 'and what's this one?' Happily he's done us a track list so you can find all these rather ridiculous tunes.
Check it…
This rather naughty clip has been making the rounds lately; the 'Driving to Nando's Riddim' otherwise known as 'Percy' is apparently forthcoming on Sureskank but we can't say when.
What we can tell you is that Kahn is booked to come and play Brighton for Below the Line at Life Club on April 13th so at least we should get to hear this in slightly better quality. More details about this coming soon…
Incredible forthcoming release from latest Slime Recordings signing Eyelove.
Approved by Phaeleh. We can all hear why..
Burial and Four Tet's collaborative efforts have always been something special and this one is no different.
Forthcoming on Text Recordings, expect this release to fly out quicker than you can blink. So keep your eyes focused on your favourite record store and you wallet close by for the next few weeks. If you not familiar with their previous collaborations check out Moth, Ego and Wolf Cub straight away.
This week we've got something a little bit different, two thirds of WOT NOT music will be passing through BTL HQ to show us what they're all about. This eclectic beat collective out of London focus on creativity, the creative process and exploring innovative new music, just check out their soundcloud >> http://soundcloud.com/wotnotmusic/tracks
In the place we have: JJ Mumbles B2B Charo // J Devious + support from BTL residents Ferndown Mistake & Stickie Davis
Live from 15:30.
Lock in here...
Brilliant piece of deep techno here from Δkkord, now available for free downloadings!
Δkkord - Submerged by Δkkord
If you missed this must-buy bit from the Clone Basement series then you're in luck, there's still a couple floating about. A regular on Clone, this is the Dutch producer's first outing on the Basement Series. 'Great Northern Diver' combines a hypnotic techno edge with some serious low end business, its been a staple of our BTL Sub.FM shows for a while now and with good reason...
More info...
If you haven't already listened to/ downloaded/ had sex to the sounds of/ wished you could DJ like/ sparked a joint on your way to work whilst listening to/ said well done James for doing/….this mix then don't you think its about time you did! Especially now we've given it this very Brighton Noire artwork.
No really, it's good.
Listen to the mix and download it here:
Out this week on Catapult is The Organ Grinder's 'I Don't Love You'. A seriously grooving slice of 4 x4 action complete with a seductively infectious vocal line, it been featuring pretty heavily on our rotation for a while now.
If your musical tastes are even slightly inclined towards this kind of thing then you might want to give it a listen and if your slightly inclined to buying this sort of thing on vinyl, you might want to act quickly. His last drop on Catapult (Obsession) sold out pretty promptly and this one's a hand-stamped, strictly limited kind of deal...
Pay no attention to all these photos of him looking stern, serious and gggnarly; Lorca is actually a really lovely chap. Hence why this little banger is yours for frizzle. Think of it as a bit of a teaser for what he's got in the bank. If you haven't already, go and give 'Can't See Higher' a listen, due out in March on Dummy Records, it's a pretty good shout if you're vinyl shopping…
More info...
Sounding like the bastard child of The Bug and Enduser, Vex'd have finally have allowed this beast of a track to enter the public domain.
This won't be everyone's cup of tea but if harsh distorted synths and angry dancehall vocals are your thing then you need to grab this immediately as it is nothing short of spectacular.
This one's an absolute no brainer.
XXXY + Well Rounded = Sonic Satisfaction
Also really liking the fact that the rather ridiculous 'I Can't Stop' will only be released via the vinyl.
Temple played a great set on Sunday, he really brought the vibes from start to finish. There are some real stunners in here so he has very kindly done us a tracklist. Big mix.
Check it...
Have we mentioned that Hint is awesome? The long-time Brighton DJ and Producer is about to drop his new album, having previously released on Ninja Tune this time its on Tru Thoughts and in our books, its a bit of a winner.
He's just done the first in his series of mixes to show off what he's all about and whet your appetite for the album. Go and check it out, with original selection and flawless mixing its certainly got our attention!
More info...
Now look. they've taken the clip down. We blame you.
They only need a 100 more likes. Go on. Give them a share. It'll be worth it...
Somebody stole some hearts at Below the Line on Sunday night and it wasn't just @ukhunky...
"This sounds like a case for Murder He Wrote!"
Review the footage here... Now with added tracklisting!
Virus Syndicate's MRK1 has been at the forefront of Dubstep for years, but I think his proper talent lies in Grime. This is one of the most unique Grime tracks I've heard, the use of samples is impeccable, and the moments of silence are perfectly placed. Bravo sir, bravo
"There's a disturbing lack of Jungle on this site..."
Build Zoots Not Bombs.
Some top class stuff here from 5kinandbone5 which they have decided to put out for free download. Now, to us this seems a bit crazy, because if this came out on vinyl it would most certainly be getting copped. Serious. A massive rolling bassline, crisp 2-step beat and brain-frying synths straight from outter space.
Download here...
♥Skype D8♥ by 5kinAndBone5
Yep, this Sunday we are back on your laptop! Streaming live n direct from BTL HQ and trust, we're pulling out more than a couple of stops with this one...
More info...
Pick of the week: Burial - Ashtray Wasp.
I'll hold my hands up here and admit it I'm a massive Burial fanboy. He's one of the few artists that i'll buy a new release the second it comes out then wait until I can be sat in a dark room with my headphones on and eyes closed before listening to it but this one is something extra special.

Ok, so I know it's probably bad practice to be deviating from the plan of reviewing my favorite mixtapes on only my second review but fuck it, it's my column and I'll do what I like, thanks. Plus this is pretty big news anyway, as it seems as though OFWGKTA's prodigal son, Earl Sweatshirt, has returned (maybe….)
Read more...
YES!!! The one and only Trim, Trimothy, Trimbal, Trim Van Helsing aka Lord of the Sith has just dropped a new mixtape and it's capital PENG! Chock full of seriously dope beats from the likes of Mark Pritchard, Rudekid and Balistiq, guest bars from Nico Lindsay and bare fresh shit from the man himself!!

"This weeks entry is from the elusive Rebound X. Most famous for his track Rhythm & Gash, this was released on the same record, Land of X EP. I'm pretty sure it samples the an instrumental to an Aaliyah track but I can't be sure, alot of the instrument samples definatly ring a bell from somewhere. Anyways its a massive track, and it shows that even Grime instrumentals can be sexy!"
Murder he Wrote- "Ok, so I'm a month late on this, what with it being a part of Keep Up! Records' Xmas 2011 giveaway (spot the irony?), but frankly when the track is this good who cares. Smoother than butter, deeper than your local swimming pool."

TDOT Launches Yellow DOT Program
By Adam Ghassemi
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – If you look around any parking lot there are badges of honor proudly displaying the love for a team, a cause or in James Cunningham's case, piece of mind.
"You can't miss it," he said Wednesday.
The yellow dot on his rear window is far from a bumper sticker. It's delivering a message that the driver may need help.
"Look for something. Look for that yellow envelope that's inside that gives all the information you're going to need to treat that person," he said.
Wednesday state leaders launched the Yellow Dot Program aimed at not only getting stickers on cars, but also these yellow envelopes in glove boxes. In the case of an accident first responders will have the driver's medical history, prescriptions and even a photo instantly.
"That first five or ten or twenty minutes and any kind of health issue is critical," said Tennessee Commissioner of Transportation John Schroer.
"We'll have more information on a person's medical condition that we can direct their treatment or do something for them during that critical time, that first hour," said Colonel Tracy Trott with the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
Cunningham, who lives alone and is diabetic, knows from past blood sugar crashes how important it can be to have immediate help, even if it's only a piece of candy, or coke.
The program is a result of bill passed into law last year.
"I think that you're going to see that it's going to save lives in Tennessee," said Sen. Jim Tracy, R-Shelbyville, who co-sponsored the bill.
That could mean more Tennesseans remain independent while knowing the right information is within reach anytime you see this yellow dot.
"You can't miss the yellow envelope," Cunningham said.
The program is free, completely voluntary and aimed at senior drivers or people with medical issues, but anyone can participate.

Dear Consumer:
FCC staff is looking into the facts of what happened and whether BART's actions were consistent with the federal Communications Act. In reviewing this situation, the FCC is mindful of both the critical public safety role of local agencies, and the importance of uninterrupted public access to wireless communications for safety, free expression, and other purposes.
We thank you for bringing this matter to our attention If you have further questions, please feel free to visit the Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau website, at www.fcc.gov/cgb, or call us at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-225-5322) voice; 1-888-TELL-FCC (1-888-835-5322) TTY.

Dear Chairman Genachowski,
When the BART Police suspended cell phone service before a planned
protest against BART police, it was the first known time in United
States history that a major government public transportation agency had
taken such a step. I find this action alarming and do not want it to
set a precedent. I ask you to nip such tactics in the bud and take a
stand against cell phone and internet censorship.
All over the world, people are using mobile devices to protest
oppressive regimes, and governments are shutting down cell phone towers
and the Internet to stop them. It's outrageous that such a thing could
happen in the United States, but that is what BART has done. And
despite local, national and international outrage, BART officials
haven't gotten the message yet. Agency spokesman Linton Johnson said
that the agency may cut cell phone service again in the future,
explaining that riders "don't have the right to free speech inside
the fare gates."
I urge you to condemn heavy-handed tactics that violate free speech
rights in an attempt to silence dissent. The FCC should conduct a full
and transparent review of the facts and circumstances of this incident
and hold those responsible to account so that such censorship does not
become accepted practice among government agencies seeking to quell

Child Welfare Workforce Reform — Federal Policy Advocacy
Every day, child welfare workers across the country interact with abused and neglected children and their families and have a substantial impact on their lives.
Improving the effectiveness of public child welfare systems depends in large part on ensuring that the child welfare workforce is well-qualified, trained, supervised and supported.
With generous support from Cornerstones for Kids, Children's Rights and the Children's Defense Fund are working together to promote child welfare workforce improvements through federal policy changes.
- We have assembled a national Child Welfare Workforce Policy Group, including representatives from public and private child welfare agencies, advocacy organizations, research/think tanks, professional social work organizations, unions and schools of social work.
- We conducted an extensive review of the literature describing the workforce crisis in child welfare and strategies for addressing it. This review has been summarized in the report titled, Components of an Effective Child Welfare Workforce to Improve Outcomes for Children and Families (2006).
- We conducted a review of states' Program Improvement Plans (PIPs) to identify workforce issues and challenges that states are facing and attempting to address. A PIP is the reform plan produced by each state to address deficiencies identified in the state's Child and Family Service Review (CFSR), which is the federal mechanism for monitoring child welfare systems. We summarized our findings in a report titled, Supporting and Improving the Child Welfare Workforce: A Review of Program Improvement Plans (PIPs) and Recommendations for Strengthening Child and Family Services Reviews (2006).
- We developed a package of five federal policy options that, if implemented, would improve the child welfare workforce.
- We are now working to educate policymakers about the challenges facing child welfare systems, the evidence that improving the workforce will lead to better outcomes for children and families, and the federal policy-level changes that can be implemented to improve the workforce.

A man was arrested Tuesday after leading Detroit police on a chase that ended when he crashed his car into the Central District police station at Woodward and Grand Boulevard.The man already had a warrant out for his arrest. When police spotted him in northeast Detroit and tried to pull him over, he didn't stop and the chase began.As the suspect neared the police station, he lost control of his vehicle and jumped the curb, hit a fire hydrant and plowed into the building."Well, that's Detroit for you. It's the Wild West," said onlooker Carlos Lovelady.Police say the man was driving a stolen car. The suspect was arrested, and fortunately, no one was hurt.

My life right now
mirrors the storm outside,
the winds of change are blowing
and cracks in my heart are showing.
For perhaps the last time tears for you are flowing.
What should be tears of joy have become tears of dread
as I have an awful feeling of what lies ahead.
Will it be a curve and a cliff to fall off of
or will your arms curve around and save me?
The lightening is bright, the thunder blaring,
will you still love me and show that you're caring?
I've been there for you, now be there for me,
when I need it the most show your love for me.
Or shrink back into your shell,
make your life a living hell.
Who's important to you now, I can't tell
but, never say to anyone I didn't love you well.
My tears are drying
until and if our love is dying.
Dear God, let it not be so
because I can't handle life now if she goes.
The vacuum will be so great,
its emptiness will cause my heart to break
and I'll drag myself through each day and night
waiting for your love to return and again shine bright.

THE COWBOY'S HOMECOMING (4) by Brenda Minton: Jeremy Hightree has returned to Dawson, Okla., intending to tear down the old Back Street Church. Beth Bradshaw, who is not good at confrontation, is determined to stop Jeremy, because her mother, who died 18 years ago, loved that church. But Jeremy has different memories connected to the church and is not going to let Beth or anyone else in Dawson change his mind, until an act of God shakes things up. This current visit to Dawson is an interesting story of how past experiences are often viewed differently by individuals. Delightfully salted with familiar faces.

At the moment I am troubleshooting on a Virtual PC 2004 migration to Parallels 2.2 (222) for Windows.
Herein there is installed an OS/2 Warp 4.52 CP Ger. It would also be possible to install eCS 1.2R or even 2.0 Beta to realize the functionality.
I need serial communications for an outdated Mauell 3 application, a software that communicates with embedded sensoringactors for controlling. To do this I installed an OS/2 and the application on a PC what runs now with VPC. Under VPC the communication run ok, almost stabile. I deinstalled VPC and tried the same testing with parallels. To verify I used a modem, so I could see how the communication worket. If the COM 1 Port was let in its default settings (a modern COM Port with standart UART 16550 chip) under Windows XP Host, the communication in OS2 Warp 4.52 Guest OS Zoc (a popular modem-terminal-software) stucked or even missed characters. To troubleshoot I changed the program-settings (of Mauell and Zoc) in Guest OS and even installed a quite powerfull Com-Port driver namend Sio (-> http://www.os2world.com/content/view/14587/2/). In this driver I could tell OS/2 that it had an UART 16550 chip, even if it seems, that parallels does not emmulate it ?! Neverminding the setting the communication run much more fluently but not stabile enough. I.e. Mauell failure was DOS 10-error communication lost after communicate approx 5 minutes.
My questions are now:
* Is it possible, the VPC emmulates Com Port communications more effective then Parallels (VPC = UART 16650, Parallels = 8250 without FIFO)?
* Can there be realized a communication via USB2Serial-adapters like the SSU-100 / SS-USB-100 from Quatech, an USB to Seriall-Adapter with natively OS/2- / eCs- (and of cause Windows-) support (see http://fixunix.com/os2/45109-usb-ser...er-driver.html)?
* Does Parallels support USB communication to OS/2 (eCs-) guests?
* Are there plans to ingrease COM-Port performance or USB-support to OS/2 or eCs guests?
* Is there need to install an USB-driver to the guest, or can the communication also be done via the virtual USB-based serial-port then found in Host OS?
* Does anybody now, if there are 3rd party Windows drivers, that could make better timining to the communication done with parallels?
Quiet a lot of specific stuff, but important for business-processes and for Parallels' acceptance in a professional environments!
Thanks for responds...

This is a space I created over break for reading, studying, and revision (which for me is done largely by hand, with a Red Pen Of Death–a fine-point PaperMate Flair with its distinctive maraschino-cherry-colored ink). I call this spot my Table of Craft ("craft" being a word I love to toy with, resonant as it is of long, quiet afternoons cutting shapes from construction paper and eating library paste). The table was my father's garage workbench in the house I grew up in. I cleaned it up and have been dragging it with me all these years; it's my workbench now.

Sits by a campfire with a bag of marshmellows waiting on Typhon
Damn it's cold out here
First step of training: Spelling Bee!
Spell: Marshmallow
* starts to think really hard *
Do I pass the speeding Bee
Yes, you did well. :scorps:
Now, explain to me the basics of marshmallow release:
1. How is it created
2. How is it manipulated
3. How can it be used
4. Strengths/Weaknesses
Okay well let me see what I can create here m
How its created: well by logical though an the fact I have read the element 20 times lol Marshmallow release is created by one ingesting marshmallows or by having one in their possession now Marshmallow release comes in two states fluff and solid state but in order to use either state the marshmallows must be combined with Fire and wind chakra the fire chakra helps soften the marshmallow making it mold able and I assume the wind helps expand it
How it can be manipulated :
This one is tough to think of a answer but ill give it a shot umm it can be manipulated in several ways one it can be used to make fluff cover the field giving you a good source of marshmallow to use another would be to create giant objects in a solid state also knowing marshmallows to be strong I assume it can take alot of damage
How can it be used:
Well like any other element marshmallow release can be used in many ways as a attack or defense now giving it properities it can be use to bind and Sumter a opponent and restrict their movement it can also be used as a shield or a cushin
Strength Solid State:
• earth
• Fire
• Water
• Taijutsu
Weakness Solid state:
• wind
• water
Strong against Fluff state:
• fire
• Ligthning
• Water
And weak in fluf state:
• earth
• ice
Okay good.
Now run and go to the candy store and buy several bags of marshmallow.
* grabs my sword and runs to the candy store and buys 9 bags of Marshmallows and returns to the training area*
Here I bought 9 bags lol
Good, now eat five bags of them. :scorps:
I grab five bags of the marshmallows and eat them I then look at you with large eyes and mumbles
"What's next? And why so many marshmallows ?"
Because you need to feel the marshmallows! Let them become one with yourself!
Now, take out one marshmallow and place it in the palm of your hand. I want you to use your fire chakra to make the marshmallow malleable, then use your wind chakra to shape it. Turn that plain marshmallow into a peep.
As I hear my instructions I remove one marshmallow and place it in the palm of my hand as I set the Marshmallow in my hand I gather up Fire chakra and add it into the marshmallow as the fire reacts with the marshmallow it becomes soft and moldable so with this happening I then cancel out the fire chakra and gather up wind chakra in the same hand I release the wind chakra and insert it into the marshmallow as the wind chakra becomes one with the marshmallow I use shape manipulation and take control of the chakra and start to mold the marshmallow I shape it to where it is in the shape of a bird and give it wind outlines and a beck
" there one peep my old friend "
Hmmm.....good, good.
Now, focus more chakra into that peep, and make it bigger.
As I hear my instructions I remove one marshmallow and place it in the palm of my hand as I set the Marshmallow in my hand I gather up alot more Fire chakra then the first time and add it into the marshmallow as the fire reacts with the marshmallow it becomes soft and moldable so with this happening I then cancel out the fire chakra and gather up wind chakra alot more then the first time in the same hand I release the wind chakra and insert it into the marshmallow as the wind chakra becomes one with the marshmallow I use shape manipulation and take control of the chakra and start to mold the marshmallow I shape it to where it is in the shape of a bird and give it wind outlines and a beck but this time I make a peep 3 times bigger
*hits you on the head with a stick*
Do what I tell you! Use the already made Peep, and make it bigger! >
As I hold the peep in my hand I focus a small amount more fire chakra into just to make it a bit mor mold able then as the peep softens up I add alot more wind chakra into the peep as the peep becomes once again infused with wind chakra I cause the peep to gro 3 times bigger
" there man a giant peep now please stop hitting me"
Bigger! Make it big enough to sit on!
As I hold the peep in my hand I focus a small amount more fire chakra into just to make it a bit mor mold able then as the peep softens up I add alot more wind chakra into the peep as the peep becomes once again infused with wind chakra I cause the peep to grow big enough to sit on
Okay good.
(Mashamaruton: Rifutu Ofu!) - Marshmallow Release: Lift Off!
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage: N/A
Description: The user drops a marshmallow and either stands on, or jumps in the air above it and makes a single hand seal. The marshmallow instantly expands dozens of times its size acting as a catapult for the user, sending them flying into the air. This can also be used as a cushion for a safe landing or against an incoming attack.
-Consumes one marshmallow.
(Mashamaruton: Sauzando Ahiru-go!) - Marshmallow Release: The Thousand Ducky!
Type: Supplementary/Defense
Rank: B-A
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20-30
Damage: N/A
Description: The user removes a marshmallow known as a peep that is shaped as a small pink duck. They will then jump in the air and drop the marshmallow while making a single hand seal causing the peep to rapidly expand and grow. The B-ranked version of the technique will cause it to grow to a size that can comfortably hold one person. The A-ranked version will cause the peep to grow to a large enough size to hold several people and a medium sized summon.
~Can only be used twice per match regardless of rank chosen.
~Consumes one marshmallow.
While you only made the second one technically, the first one is basically the same.
Now, take out two marshmallows and use the same concept, but this time also add shape manipulation. Combine the two marshmallows and grow them into clones of yourself.
As I here the instructions I remove two more marshmallows and set one on the ground and the other I top of the first one as I do this I stand up straight and release a good amount of fire chakra onto the marshmallows enough to make them mold able as they soften up I then release Wind chakra and alot of it onto the marshmallow and since the marshmallows are now so soft I combined the two while using shape manipulation to shape them as I do the one Handsign making the marshmallow grow as talk as me and by using shape manipulation it appears in a cloud of smoke as a clone of me
(Mashamaruton: Maru-manu) - Marshmallow Release: Mallow-Men
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: The user removes several marshmallows from his pouch and then tosses them in the air followed by a single hand seal. In a cloud of smoke the marshmallows transform into up to 4 clones of the user. These clones have the capability of using only marshmallow style techniques or non-elemental taijutsu. Because of their marshmallow bodies they are capable of melding moderate injuries such as being sliced or having a hole punched through them, but suffering more serious injuries will render them unable to heal. At any point the user can form a single hand seal causing the clones to explode creating a burst of sticky marshmallow fluff on everything in close proximity.
~Can only create up to four clones per match.
~Each clone requires the input of two marshmallows.
These clones are great for close combat. They can repair cuts and holes, and you can make them explode into sticky marshmallow fluff at any point.
Next, use the marshmallows you ate previously to create a large wave of marshmallow fluff. This is similar to how you would create great water exploding wave, just with marshmallows instead.
Once again after hearing my instructions I take in a deep breath as I do this I build up fire chakra and wind chakra in my stomach as I build up the two chakras I combined them with the marshmallows I ate earlier this happening and the three are combined i exhale as I exhale quickly a large amount of marshmallow fluff spills out and starts heading infront of me within the blink of a eye I have released a huge wave of marshmallow fluff
" this is fun old friend"
(Mashamaruton: Itokuzu Tsunami) - Marshmallow Release: Fluff Tsunami
Type: Attack
Rank: A
Range: Short - Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage: 60
Description: The user will ingest three marshmallows and then release a large wave of marshmallow fluff that races towards the opponent. The wave itself is seven meters tall (21 feet). The amount of fluff released is enough to leave the battlefield covered in a layer of the sticky goop.
~Can only be used twice per battle.
~Consumes three marshmallows.
Now, you can use that fluff to create a very wide variety of structures. Make a series of structures using the fluff.
(Also, I completely forgot about some approved marshmallow techs, so check them out here http://narutobase.net/forums/showthr...=1#post6357959)
As the fluff is covering the field I add chakra into a using this chakra I mold the fluff and first make a rope made of fluff after making the rope I once again add chakra and using shape manipulation I again mold some more fluff and make a cage made f fluff
"There some rope and a cage lol "
lol okay, good.
(Mashamaruton: Kokkaku-a-itokuzu) - Marshmallow Release: Build-a-Fluff
Type: Attack/Defense/Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: A very basic technique, the user is able to manipulate a pre-existing source of marshmallow fluff to create a number of shapes such as ropes, shields, tendrils, etc. The mass of the shapes created cannot exceed the mass of the fluff source used. Since the fluff is soft these creations don't do much damage, but their sticky property makes them useful in binding or trapping the opponent.
-Can't change the properties of the fluff.
-Can be used four times per battle.
-Requires a source of fluff.
Now, use the concept of releasing the fluff from the tsunami tech, and the shaping of the fluff from the build-a-fluff technique and create a three-headed hydra of the fluff that looks like:
"Got it old man "
I take a deep breath in and gather up fire and wind chakra in my stomach as I build up the chakra I infuse the chakras and mix them with the marshmallows from earlier that I had already ingested as I mix the three I take a breath in and then quickly breath out as I do this I release marshmallow fluff from my mouth as I release the fluff I use shape maniuplation to shape the large amount of fluff into the shape of a three headed dragon as I finish shaping the fluff and adding minor details I stop exhailing

14.07.06 - By Izyaslav Slava Koza and Gennadi Komar Komarnitzki: -Did you see that? Wow! I cant believe what this American is doing! He was the guy they robbed in Seoul, remember?
-Yeah, I know. Everybody knows that!
-Unreal! Hes unbelievable!
The two young boxing fans were watching a live fight feed from the U.S. during the early hours of the morning. The object of their praise was of course one of the virtuoso masters of the ring in recent times- Roy Jones Jr.
Both guys were so captivated by the proceedings on TV, that it seemed as if, they were in a ring all by themselves. In point of fact they were so captivated that they hardly noticed a gray-haired patron sitting at a nearby table watching the same bout. It was obvious that he had also come to watch the fight, but even more evident was the stoic and apparent boredom on his face.
The fight had ended.
-That has never happened in the history of boxing!
-Yeah, I think you might be right.
As the telecast concluded, and the commentator exclaimed the final goodbye, the atmosphere in the sports bar quieted down, and the older gentleman quietly decide to get up and leave. Before exiting he passed by the two younger fight fans, and casually threw out, Ageev was better, and disappeared through the door.
Who was this Ageev? That name did not appear in a single ratings list, and not one modern boxing magazine had ever mentioned it. Could it be the confused old timer mixed up boxing with soccer?
The answer is a resounding NO!
Two weeks after the start of world war 2, in Moscow, a young baby destined to become one of the most talented, extraordinary, and controversial personalities in the history of Soviet boxing entered into existence. Viktor Ageev was born on July 7th 1941. A deserved and honored Soviet master of sports, an honored Soviet trainer who graduated from the Institute of Soviet physical culture as well as the Elite trainers school of the Russian Republic of the Soviet Union, Ageev was a two time champion of Europe in 1965 and 1967, and four time champion of the USSR in 63,5,6,7.
Whatever anyone has ever written about Vladimir Vysotski (think rich mans Russian version of Bob Dylan) could never really capture the essence of his character. Nobody will ever know about the level of greatness of Soviet Soccer star Eduard Streltsov (rumored to be on par with that of Pele). Those are just two names that can be used as a somewhat distant measuring stick to the phenomenon of Ageev. As Viktor Petrovich says himself, Everything anyone could ever write about me has already been written a hundred times over. What else can anyone say?
Really what else can be added? A round of boxing lasts three minutes. Even the most experienced fighter goes through no more then 1,000 such rounds. No more then two days total in the squared circle. However, this is where the math begins to deceive the mind and body. Thousands of moments, each of which is different from the next, and can become the deciding one. Whoever can learn to control time in this way can become a demi-god and leave the crowd in total awe until the first and final villainous second. How many fighters fell in defeat trying to defeat time in this way? and, yet Ageev was able to overcome even the deadliest of boxing foes.
A standard rule of boxing is, tell me who you beat and I will tell you how good you are. The most accomplished fighter in the history of Soviet boxing was and forever will be Boris Lagutin. For him it was precisely Ageev who presented the most challenges as an opponent. The result of the four meetings? Undecided, even though Lagutins two prestigious gold medals were facing just 2 meager European titles.
Even when Lagutin and Ageev were not fighting each other, psychological bouts between the two routinely took place. Andrei Batashev remembers, The Soviet boxing team was training to compete in the European Championships. At the time everybody was talking about talented Lithuanian Middleweight named Strumkis, who had even managed to beat the great Lagutin. They even had a camera crew come to the training session because of the interest in Strumkis. So they put him in the ring, and against him they put in Ageev. So they start to spar, and while they were feeling each other out, I turned around briefly to look at the other end of the gym where Lagutin was training. Suddenly I hear a thud resembling the fall of something really heavy. Turning around, I see, Strumkis laid out flat on the canvas, and under his helmet, you could see blood spurting out of his nose and ears. Ageev, all the while, was standing in the corner and either trying to fix the laces on his gloves, or wiping some dust off of them. Viktor seemed so focused on this, that it was almost impossible to imagine, what had happened a few seconds earlier in the ring
Not once did Victor Ageev ever lose in international competition. Ageev was a true professional in the amateur ring and could break his opponent down psychologically before hand, and then complete the deconstruction in the ring.
Ageevs first trainer, and the man who gave him a ticket to life, was Vadim Frolovich Konkov, or as he was more commonly known Uncle Volodya. Vitya wasnt even all of fourteen years old when they met. It was Konkov who taught the kid to fight in the dazzling, never before seen, hands down style that captivated fans of boxing all over the world.
Soon after the young champion of Moscow, and then the Soviet Union, became an inspiration not only for boxing experts, but for all citizens of the former country. An inspiration much like the same actor and musician Vladimir Vysotski, the poet Evgeni Evtushenko (now a professor lecturing in Queens college in NYC), and the Soccer star Eduard Streltsov. Some fans even believe the famous composition, A song about a sentimental boxer, was written by Vysotski specifically for Ageev. This mutual inspiration bore unimaginable results-in thirty four international fights: not once did Ageev suffer defeat.
Ageev remembers, It was my first international bout and the London contingent came over. I was tall but the opponent was even taller. I got a little angry over something, swung with my right, and start looking left, right cause he was not there anymore. Then I stumble and trip a bit over him. He is lying there, and I didnt even understand why he fell.
Starting in 1960 and before each fight that year, even against the strongest opponents, Ageev believed in unconditional victory. Without emotion or hesitation he would tell Vadim Frolovich, Dyada (uncle) Volodya, Ill win anyway. During his second winning stint as European Champion in Rome, Ageev was given an audience with the Pope and received his blessing.
However, outside the ring Ageev had different opponents, and unlike Tyson, even though he never swung first, sometimes fighting was an absolute necessity. The Khrushchev administration began a vicious campaign against, Star Fever, and made a bright initial example of Eduard Streltsov. Really it was a campaign against individuality, originality, and independence. Victor Ageev became the second imploding victim of that campaign. His first punishment was a fight in the restaurant Metropol, where he had forgotten his cigarettes and tried going back to fetch them. The doorman allowed him to return, while another man, in civilian clothing tried to stop him by grabbing his shoulders. The civilian, who was really a Police captain, suffered a broken nose, and a concussion while accomplishing his real objective by helping Ageev get thrown in jail.
The second time Ageev wound up in jail was also because of a fight and again in a restaurant. When it was discovered that he was a repeat offender, the final result was inescapable: Court, prison, and finally the dreaded prison camp.
The stint at the camp in Komi, Siberia, could have ended up very tragic as Ageev had to fight for an altogether different kind of survival then the one he was used to in the ring. One time he was almost beaten to death with crowbars. Another time he was almost crushed to death in a crowded police van. Once he froze almost to the point of dying in the cold Siberian climate.
After getting out Victor Petrovich decided to change his life and become a trainer. He didnt even get the mandatory prisoners tattoo as all the other inmates. I thought, how could I train kids with a tattoo, he explained later.
Ageev the trainer was no less effective then Ageev the boxer. His list of successes in the corner was no less impressive then his fighting record: Rybakov, Limasov, Solomin, Galkin, the conqueror of the famous Cuban Angel Herrera Anatoly Petrov, and the first professional Russian champ Victor Egorov. Furthermore, Nikolai Tokarev, Sergei Kobzev, and Victor Karpuhin. Of course, Ageev didnt just train anybody and wanted to only take on fighters with certain criteria. It seemed like he placed more focus on a boxers spirit rather then their athletic ability.
His training methods were often quite original. When his fighters would ask to relax a bit during training he would agree and even pour the champagne himself. When they would take a sip he would start smacking them uncontrollably. They should have said No!
Victor Rybakov remembers, When I would finish a round and go to my corner, he would slowly pick up the stool, and slowly start climbing the steps to the ring. Then the bell would sound signaling the start of the next round. He would innocently raise his arms and shout, Sorry I couldnt make it. Then one time instead of giving me advice he decided to tell me a joke.
Even though Ageev had left boxing the sport could not leave him. In 1979 the Greatest Mohammed Ali came to Moscow. At the Sheremetevo Airport, the legendary boxer was met by journalists, government officials, and one single boxer named Victor Ageev. Entering the hall, Ali looked around, and upon seeing Ageev, started walking towards him. Upon reaching him, Ali smiled, and as a form of greeting tried to connect with a lightning combination, barely attempting to graze the temples and chin of Ageev. However, cracking an even wilder smile, Ageev slipped to the side avoiding the punch, and the Greatest to his greatest surprise found that Ageevs fist was frozen a single centimeter from his jaw.
The extreme changes that hit the country in the 1980s forced Ageev to make new decisions in regards to his future. No longer wishing to live in the impoverished conditions that engulfed his fellow trainers, he dedicated himself to the development of professional boxing. He was elected president of the federation of professional boxing in Russia, and the WBA made him a member of its organization.
His success as a mentor did not end when he stopped being a full-fledged trainer. Early this year we conducted an interview (http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=5834&more=1) with Alexander Povetkin, arguably the current single best prospect in the heavyweight division. To the question of who were some of his favorite national fighters, Alexander gave the following response:
To answer both of these I will say, in boxing you always have to be creative and think up something new. Unpredictability, if it is organized and uniform in a sense, becomes even more important as time passes. This is why I really enjoy watching the great Viktor Ageevs old fights, as well as asking him for advice. He is like a father figure to any person who has anything to do with boxing in our country.
In his time Victor Ageev, slipped the punches of Mohammed Ali, and tried on boxing gloves in the company of Sugar Ray Robinson. In a time when Soviet boxers lived in a world different from the one of the more famous and popular professional legends, Ageev met two of the greatest pound for pound fighters in the history of the sport, even though sadly it was not in the ring. These men greeted him with the same winning title, that he shared with his ironic name:Victor.
For those who didnt have a chance to witness Ageevs mastery in the ring here is a somewhat brief description: imagine a thundering mixture of Roy Jones, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and possibly Gennadi Golovkin from Kazakhstan and you can get some cloudy understanding of the kind of talent Victor Ageev possessed. Whatever did, and whatever will happen in the future, at this moment in time there has never been another fighter of the same caliber born on Russian soil.
On July 7th of last week, Victor Petrovich Ageev turned 65. The Russian and English languages are built in such a way that the first letter in both alphabets is A. It would be nice if any person, wishing to learn the history of the sweet science, would start from that letter and hit Ageev, Victors name. That in itself will be enough to gain an understanding and love for the fairest and manliest of sports.
ESB wishes Victor Ageev many more years of happiness and the sort of successes he had already tasted many times before in his life.
Also special Thanks to Anton the Prophet Gorjunov from www.Fightnews.ru, as well as the Ukrainian version of the RING magazine.

Although it made its official debut less than a month ago, the second generation Porsche Cayenne has already received its first tuning package. This package comes from the German tuner, Cargraphic.
A little bummed, we looked at the first teaser image to see what was laid out for us. Unfortunately, details on the tuned-up model were not revealed, but we were able to spot some changes that have been made. These changes include: a roof spoiler, a rear diffuser, and new alloy wheels. We can only imagine there to be a performance upgrade offered as well considering the minor, yet sportier, changes made to the exterior. There would have to be to compete against the previously tuned Porsche Cayenne Diesel by Kahn Design . Of course, they can't mess it up as bad as the boys over in Dubai did with their chocolate version of the last model.
Stay tuned for more details!

Robbie Williams' Mangina
March 12, 2008 / Posted by: Michael K
I don't know how old this is, but it's Robbie Williams giving himself a mangina during some interview. That's basically it. I have no idea what kind of coke words are coming out of his mouth, because I was too busy focusing on his mangina to see if the clit was going to slip out. Sadly it never did. The video is after the jump and it's slight NSFW. Slightly. Let's jump!
Bonus! Click here to see Robbie's willy, but it's nothing it's not worth a finger. Shit, I think it's smaller than a finger.

From Kelly to Alan
This morning I ran for 35 minutes, and it seemed odd.
I typically base my taper off of a three-week framework that Pete Pfitzinger wrote in Running Times several years ago. The general idea is to have a handful of hard workouts interspersed among several short, easy runs, while gradually bringing your overall mileage downward.
Yesterday was a fairly difficult 13-miler (on the loop), and tomorrow will be 11 miles with 7 at marathon pace, so that made today an easy day – the schedule called for 30-40 minutes at an easy pace.
After several weeks where my shortest run has been about 7 miles, it felt very strange to turn and head for home after running only 15 minutes. I tacked on an extra 5 minutes just to appease my OCD tendencies, but ended the workout feeling like I had barely started. I guess that's the point.
Anyway, my mind usually starts to wander when I'm running aimlessly, and this morning was no exception. And this morning, it kept wandering right into Kelly Clarkson's abs.
I've watched her "Walk Away" video a handful of times over the past week now. It's a funny video, and the tune is fairly catchy. In the video, Kelly wears an outfit that covers her arms and chest, but leaves her stomach exposed down to her low-rider jeans.
And I need to be careful about how I say this, because I dig Kelly. And like I said, the video is amusing. But I can't help thinking that she still needs to raise her game a bit when it comes to showing us her stomach.
It's not that it's a bad-looking stomach. Far from it, actually. But it's clearly not in the same league as Beyonce's, or Shakira's, or the all-time classic: Britney Spears circa 2002.
Sure, that's a tough comparison to make, but ab-baring is definitely a game where you have to bring it strong, or don't bring it at all. And - just to re-state for emphasis - Kelly's good. She's probably better than 99% of us. She's just not world-class.
Since this is (ostensibly) a running blog, I'll use this illustration. Remember Alan Webb in 2001? He was the best high school runner in a generation, poised to take the world by storm. Then he started running in international meets and getting his butt kicked by Kenyans and Moroccans and even a lot of European runners. He won the Olympic Trials 1500m by almost a half-lap in 2004, but didn't advance past the preliminary round at the Athens Olympics.
He was still the best miler in America, but he wasn't quite world-class. But now a few years later, he holds his own against international fields, and his name can be legitimately entered into a discussion of the world's best runners.
So let's think of Kelly Clarkson's abs like the 2001 Alan Webb. She's got one of the best looks going, but Beyonce and Shakira are totally kicking her butt right now – they're her versions of Bernard Lagat and Ramzi Rashid (using the same analogy, Britney Spears would be Hicham El Guerrouj – simply the best miler ever). And if she wants to compete at their level, she needs to step it up yet another notch.
She's winning-the-Olympic-trials good, but not competing-head-to-head-with-Beyonce good. There's a big difference.
But she's still young, like Webb, so there's cause for hope. And personally, I'm pulling for her to jump into that world-class discussion – I mean, there's always room in the talent pool for another hardbody, right?
Not to mention, this is the kind of competition I could really enjoy watching over the next couple of years.
(See what kind of crazy things can happen if I don't get enough running?)

Other Proprietary Concrete Form Panel Types
Additional plywood grades specifically designed for concrete forming include special overlay panels and proprietary panels. These panels are designed to produce a smooth, uniform concrete surface. Some proprietary panels are made of Group 1 wood species only, and have thicker face and back veneers than those normally used. These provide greater parallel-to-face grain strength and stiffness for the panel. Faces may be specially treated or coated with a release agent. Check with the manufacturer for design specifications and surface treatment recommendations.

Summiting Mount Kilimanjaro Above the Clouds in Tanzania
Nearing 20,000 feet, Mt. Kilimanjaro—Africa's tallest mountain—is a climbing feat to be reckoned with. You start Day 5 of the 6-day trek just before midnight, ascending the steep slope at an agonizingly slow pace, forever mindful of the importance of acclimating yourself to the extreme high altitude. In eerily silent darkness, the narrow tunnel of your headlight and the soft humming of the Tanzanian porters are your only guidance. If your physical, and more importantly—your mental—endurance has persevered upon summiting, you'll be standing (more like wobbling at this point) amidst striking aquamarine glaciers and a cerulean sky thousands of feet above the clouds. Quickly relish the view, not only because these glaciers are expected to melt in the coming decades due to global warming, but you'll have to start the descent minutes later.
