Syllabus – Fall Semester 2011
Course: History 212G: East Asia Since 1600
Time & Place: MWF 10:30 - 11:20, Hardman Hall, Room 212
Instructor: Elvira Hammond, Room 254, Breland Hall, 646-2377, email@example.com
Office Hours: Tuesdays 1:30-3pm and Wednesdays 9-10am, or by appointment.
Description: This is an introduction to the history and cultures of East Asia from the beginning of the 17th century through the late 20th century. We will be concerned with the internal historical dynamics of each of three main societies of this region: China, Japan, and Korea. We will also examine the interactions between these countries and the growing interaction between East Asia and the West.
Objectives: Students will learn the analytical skills of interpreting historical changes and continuity. They will assess and use historical documents, and learn how to evaluate varying historical interpretations. Students will understand the chronological and geographic context of important historical events, and will understand the social, technological, economic, cultural and political components of the society under study in this course.
Students will understand how people shape their culture and its beliefs, and the way in which prevailing cultures and beliefs shape them. They will understand the historical origins of present-day societies, to learn about their own historical roots. They will learn about the development of structures of power, the production of and distribution of goods, and the relationship between science and technology and human values and behavior.

Hey, it's been a long time since I posted. These are personal paintings except for the third one, which was a commission work i've done. But it was a nice job with few guidelines.
Hope you like it and comments and critic are always welcome.
Have a nice day.

nice! the "deadbaloon" idea is great!
Sorry for my bad english.

This is fantastic! It inspires me to do some symbolism based on stereotypes. Thanks for the view!
Creepy stuff. I like it very much.
Just one crit though...the left hand of the child in the second picture is not reading very clearly - the little finger and thumb seem lost. Other than that, great stuff.
As the ego shrinks, so the spirit expands.
Nice, I especially like the purple in the last one, it's got something very james jean to it.

Do these have any meaning?
Nice, love the colors.
The only thing crit is the facts that the ballon, the octopus, the robots.... are more interesting than the boys.
i agree with rook, a very apparent james jean influence
Dian3: thank you
Max A K Challie: glad to hear that.
MephistoLV: I agree with you. Thank you.
Red_Rook, Barts: James Jean is, besides Foster and Ashley Wood, my hero and his work always inspires me.
MrDigory: The intention was to create faces without emotions, no stereotyped expressions.
spookybabydoll: well, this means i have to work more on the boys/girls.
Really awesome stuff. My one pet peeve is that everyone appears to be floating, there is no sense of where the ground is. I'm getting the feeling that this is your style though so do ignore me if thats the case.
dude i love this stuff.. great paintings.. unique style and whatnot.. but i love the ideas behind them... just creepy mixed with something cutesy like kids and balloons and blue stuffed animal creatures.. its jsut great... good work ol' chap!
Facebook Page
Even though there's an obvious theme, the 3rd pic seems out pf place. It's alot more cheerful than the prevoius 2, I think it may be to do with the kid being active and the 'happier' colour scheme.
Love the first 2, love the balloon.
my sketches here... http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=92997

oh also.. i was wondering.. are these traditional or digital or what? (im very curious)

man I really stuff like this. reminds a lot of james jean.Neat , fucking eerie too.
NEW SketchbooK
My Finished Paintings(TIGHTropE)
Looks good. cool concepts.
Silverwing: I get your point, maybe they need a ground, but its difficult on account of the background.
Killer Napkins:
Thank you, I painted all in ps. But I use some custombrushes for this traditional feeling.
SEVANS: Its an commission work, they want it a little bit more happy-go-lucky. Here is the boy in the first color scheme without the other fellows:
bhanu, Stark:
Thank you for the comments, I'm glad you like it.
Very nicely rendered! great backgrounds. It reminds me of yoshitomo nara, these have weird ideas and a lot of fun.
Well, now I change my opinion and say that much, much better without all the things around. The new background color fits more with your others works.
chobomaster, spookybabydoll:
Thank you.
Recent work:
Nice to see some new work from you, still pretty solid stuff, but for the girlthe shadow under the noose is too strong, looks like she's bleeding.
Love the kid and the rat, he's really creepy.
I like your last one
My Sketchbook [ACTUALLY UPDATED!]
I have 800 posts
I understand that you like James Jean but be careful. This last set seems like you had his images next to you while you were making your piece and didn't add much to make yours original. The subject matter, the "environment," and the handling are all his. It's ok to be influenced by him, but add your own touch.

i agree with fvalleja, your stuff is very close to james jean, and i checked out your site and you have a painting that is a blatant jon foster immitation. you should work on developing your own voice.
Hmm, Instresting , I have to watch this thread, Nice works, I cant do digital yet, I just dont have the resources.
Look, Iam diet drama, want to spend tha night dont bring pajamas, man there's so much heat beneath clothes, you see me !
JesArt Sketchbook, go have a gander..
spookybabydoll, chuck18mp:
Thank you.
I'm still searching for my own style. To copy the work of jj was not my intention. But maybe your right and the influence is too heavy. Thank you and nice to see you here.
Your right and this image is a fanart of Jon Fosters and Brian Despains work.
I used a ref for the pose of the girl an for the animal. I'm not happy with the final outcome, she's as stiff as a poker... but anyway:
Nice work man!
Learn anatomy
Great idea and execution of the kids. I love it!
At this point, especially with your paintings of women, I am gonna say your rendering far surpasses your actual anatomy skills. I really think your colors and mood are so beautiful, I wish the foundation drawing was stronger.
'Cuz life is full of your regrets, and I should be one...
deadballon kid kicks ass! great stuff... everything feels very "digital artish" still... if i were you i'd try to make my stuff more traditional in it's looks. Just a tip you know... Keep up the great work!

Oct. 27 (Bloomberg) -- German stocks rallied to a 12-week high, with the benchmark DAX Index entering a bull market, after Europe's leaders agreed to expand a bailout package to stem the region's sovereign debt crisis.
Deutsche Bank AG and Commerzbank AG, Germany's largest lenders, climbed the most in more than two years. BASF SE rose 7.5 percent after the world's biggest chemical maker reported third-quarter profit that beat analysts' estimates.
The DAX surged 321.77, or 5.4 percent, to 6,337.84 at the close in Frankfurt. The measure has advanced 25 percent from this year's low on Sept. 12 amid speculation the global economy will avoid another recession and as optimism grew that European policy makers would agree on a solution to the region's debt woes. An increase of 20 percent is commonly defined as a bull market. The broader HDAX rallied 5.1 percent today.
"The announced package included a number of surprises," Peter Oppenheimer, a London-based strategist at Goldman Sachs Group Inc., wrote in a report today in which he increased his forecast for the return from European stocks. "Several components of a credible package that can significantly reduce the risk premium in risky assets are being put into place, despite the lack of details."
Euro-area leaders persuaded bondholders to take 50 percent losses on Greek debt and increased the size of the European Financial Stability Facility, the region's rescue fund, to 1 trillion euros ($1.4 trillion), responding to global pressure to step up the fight against the sovereign debt crisis.
Crisis Summit
Ten hours of brinkmanship at the second crisis summit in four days delivered a plan that the euro area's stewards said points the way out of the debt quagmire, even if key details are lacking. Last-ditch talks with bank representatives led to the debt-relief accord, in an effort to quarantine Greece and prevent speculation against Italy and France from ravaging the euro area and wreaking global economic havoc.
Measures include the recapitalization of European banks, a potentially bigger role for the International Monetary Fund, a commitment from Italy to do more to reduce its debt and a signal from leaders that the European Central Bank will maintain bond purchases in the secondary market.
Stocks extended gains as a report showed that the U.S. economy grew in the third quarter at the fastest pace in a year as gains in consumer spending and business investment helped support a recovery on the brink of faltering.
Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank
Deutsche Bank gained 15 percent to 32.80 euros, the largest increase since March 2009. Commerzbank rose 16 percent to 2.04 euros, the biggest jump since July 2009.
BASF climbed 7.5 percent to 54.37 euros after profit beat estimates as price increases and the purchase of cosmetic- ingredient maker Cognis helped limit a drop in margins.
Bayer AG rallied 7.1 percent to 48.01 euros as the maker of drugs and chemicals said third-quarter profit more than doubled. Net income increased to 642 million euros from 285 million euros a year earlier, the Leverkusen, Germany-based company said. Core earnings per share, which exclude one-off items such as litigation costs, totaled 1.12 euros, beating the 1.03 euro average estimate of 20 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg.
Deutsche Lufthansa AG, Europe's biggest airline by sales, advanced 3.4 percent to 10.39 euros. The company reiterated its guidance for the full year after slicing a planned increase in winter capacity by two-thirds as slowing growth, declining consumer confidence and Europe's debt crisis hurt demand.
The German flag carrier reported a 27 percent drop in third-quarter earnings as operating profit fell to 575 million euros from 783 million euros a year earlier.
Volkswagen Soars
Volkswagen AG preferred shares surged 10 percent to 130.55 euros, the biggest gain in two years. Operating profit at Europe's largest carmaker rose 46 percent to 2.89 billion euros in the third quarter, beating the 2.61 billion-euro average estimate of 15 analysts compiled by Bloomberg.
The German manufacturer has a goal of boosting deliveries 11 percent this year to a record 8 million vehicles. VW stuck to a forecast that 2011 revenue and earnings before interest and taxes will be "significantly higher" than last year.
Daimler AG rose 3.1 percent to 39.07 euros as the world's third-largest maker of luxury vehicles predicted higher fourth- quarter profit on gains at its trucks and vans divisions.
Deutsche Boerse AG advanced 6.2 percent to 41.29 euros after announcing a 100 million-euro ($141 million) buyback.
Rhoen-Klinikum AG sank 6 percent to 14.31 euros as the operator of health-care facilities reported third-quarter net income and sales that missed analysts' estimates.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WHAS11) – Newly released photos from the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green are giving the public a closer look at the 8 irreplaceable Corvettes trapped in a massive sinkhole.
The photo released Saturday shows 6 of the 8 Corvettes that fell some 30 feet below ground Wednesday morning inside the Skydome.
The museum says a Mallett Hammer Z06 Corvette and the 1.5 millionth white Corvette are buried somewhere even deeper.
The staff plans to extract the Corvettes from the sinkhole this week.
General Motors has announced it will oversee the restoration of all cars recovered from the sinkhole.
Its plant manager also pledges his support with a personal monetary donation.
The museum remains open to visitors with the exception of the skydome.

Money is tight for a lot of households in Britain just now, which means lots of them are trying to save money where they can. The spectacular and growing success of discount supermarkets such as Aldi and Lidl is proof of this.
Historically, one of the easiest ways to save money has been to switch from more expensive branded goods to cheaper, unbranded ones. This is one reason why, in recent years, supermarkets have been very keen to promote the quality and relative inexpense of their own-label products as a key point of difference when wooing thrifty customers.

Officially, the 2012 Jeep Wrangler doesn't exist yet. No one at Chrysler will talk about it, but dealers have already received order guides for it. Now, an Atlanta dealership has posted the first 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with Chrysler's Pentastar V-6 on eBay and they're even offering it for sale below sticker price, instead of some absurd amount of "Additional Dealer Markup" tacked on.
The big news for the 2012 Jeep Wrangler is the new engine. Gone is the anemic 3.8-liter V-6 used on Wranglers from 2007 through 2011, and we say good riddance. The 3.8-liter engine was good for only 202 horsepower and 237 ft-lb of torque, which made the 3,800 pound Wrangler feel sluggish on pavement and hard-packed trails. It works well enough off-road, thanks to the Wrangler's low gearing, but nearly every Wrangler owner we know sinks serious money into coaxing additional horsepower out of the old V-6.
For 2012, the Jeep Wrangler gets the same 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 used in the Jeep Grand Cherokee . It's a big improvement in terms of output, and the new engine is rated at 260 horsepower when stuffed under the hood of the Wrangler. We haven't seen torque specifications just yet, but we suspect they'll be an improvement over last year's 237 ft-lb as well. Fuel economy is up for 2012, with the Pentastar V-6 getting 13 percent better fuel economy in the city and nearly 11 percent better fuel economy on the highway. That puts the two-door Wrangler at 17 mpg city and 21 mpg highway, while the four-door Wrangler Unlimited clocks in with 16 mpg city and 20 mpg highway.

It's Saturday morning. The Prez is hanging out in Toby's office, wearing a Notre Dame sweatshirt. The Prez asks if Toby read Paul Erlich's The Population Bomb. The Prez says, "Erlich said it was a fantasy that India would ever feed itself. Then Norman Borlaug comes along." He tells Toby and Josh some more about the dwarf wheat. Charlie comes in and hands The Prez a note. "It happened?" Toby asks. The Prez says, "They executed him in the airport parking lot." Everyone, including me, pauses for a second to keep from sniffling. Then the Prez stands, says, "I'll see you Monday," and leaves. Fade out.
Next week, The West Wing engages in stunt casting when John Larroquette drops by to chew on the walls. Deborah, it's all yours. Good luck with Ainsley; I think you're gonna need it.

Is to be popular on the internet.
Today I did a bit of painting and watched Mind Game (this must be my 3rd time watching) with my friend Fernando. It was the shit. I think this might be a movie that people need to watch by themselves just because of the sheer amount of penis-like things and boobs..
But the animation was too awesome.
You know why? Because the exaggeration of the human body and perspective, the experimental animation that works really well, and a cute wonderful inspirational message to tie it all together. Yes. And because God is awesome, in that non-preachy kind of way.

I love Earl Grey tea so I was excited to make this. It is stretching it to call this "gelato" as it has the consistency of ice milk. I still liked it alot. It turns into a slushie as it melts. I'm going to make a Earl Grey ice cream using a typical ice cream base that I'm sure will be delicious. It won't be low calorie but what true gelato is?
Earl Grey Gelato
joy2dream Posted: 07/15/10
cooksbythesea Posted: 02/03/13
I substituted half of a cup of whipping cream for the milk, which thickened it up nicely. Next time, I will also use more tea bags since the earl grey flavor was very mild, and was nearly overshadowed by the lemon juice's flavor.

A former Iowa casino executive is investing millions in the Hard Rock.
Brent Stevens used to be the Chairman of Peninsula Gaming, which operated two Diamond Joe casinos in Iowa. Stevens agreed to invest up to $35 million in the $118 million Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City project.
Officials say the deal between Stevens and Hard Rock developer Sioux City Entertainment was brokered in early January.
An Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission spokesperson says it was presented to them after last week's meeting, and is a convertible line of credit. It could beef up SCE's financing, which critics have attacked for relying on a $90 million loan with a 14% interest rate.
"Our goal has always been to drive down the cost of our financing. This is a great first step to that," said SCE President Bill Warner.
To get built, the Hard Rock proposal needs a gambling license from the IRGC, and there's a lot of competition for that certification. The commission is considering three other proposals; Penn National Gaming's two Hollywood style casinos, and Ho-Chunk, Inc.'s Warrior Casino and Hotel.
In fact, Ho-Chunk recently filed a formal objection with the IRGC over Sioux City Entertainment's new investment.
The letter claims the SCE's financing amendment violates the commission's licensing application process. Ho-Chunk says the information was filed 67 days after the November deadline. The company wants the IRGC to rule the amendment "untimely" and not consider it.
The gaming commission's administrator says the board has typically considered financing changes in the past, but not changes to size, scope, or location of the project.

On Moving Kitchens
The whole kitchen is on a truck, packed in boxes and plastic tubs, dishes carefully swaddled in recycled paper and old dishtowels. The cookbooks are stacked in heavy boxes, and the spices have their own small box. I'm leaving one kitchen for another.
Moving a kitchen is stressful - even tiny galley kitchens seem to hold an astonishing amount of stuff. It was a good opportunity to pare down and declutter. I had three slotted cooking spoons; I donated two. I found a colony of unused dishes in the back of a top cupboard; an old roommate's leopard and zebra print coffee mugs also found their way into the donation box.
It's also an opportunity to start fresh. I had no compunctions about throwing out the old kitchen rug; it was well-worn, dirty, and unsalvageable. I found long-forgotten tomato sauce and pumpkin puree in the back of the freezer. It was good to clean and to know that everything was well-packed and organized for moving into a new apartment kitchen.
Have you moved lately? Any tips for packing up (and unpacking) a kitchen? Any good stories of kitchen moving?
18 Comments
I'm moving soon and would love some kitchen-packing tips!
My name is Wende, and I have recklessly bought kitchen equipment that I don't use regularly.
The focus of my guilt is a mini-bundt pan that makes cakes shaped like flowers. I have used it once since we bought it in 2004. Cupcakes are just more practical.
Oh, no, you're leaving that turquoise oven? I've admired that for a long time!
I know!! I was rather heartbroken about that. I am hoping to get a good tradeoff in big windows and more counter space, though...
Moving kitchen was a great way to get rid of food and kitchen implements that just weren't getting used, and weren't ever going to, either. My 'new' kitchen (of 8 months now) is larger and has more counter space, but somehow it has less cabinet space. Judicious pruning has been a must.
I just moved into a tiny apartment and the kitchen stuff was a nightmare. My problem is both gadgets and dishes... I ended up with a lot of things that belonged to my great grandmother and my mother, both fanatical culinary collectors, so it's hard to part with stuff that carries a lot of sentimental value.
I'm very annoyed with my mom, however, who gave me her big honkin' Cusinart and all its ungainly attachments and blades, and kept the Mini Prep for herself.
Simple, things for moving kitchens that I've found useful:
- Twist ties and string, to tie together things like chopsticks, spoons - it's such a joy to unpack those little bundles.
- Lots of little, long, flat boxes, to put together sundry stuff that shouldn't be left loose, like knives, all those tiny little gadgets that hang out in kitchen drawers, etc. Be sure to tape or rubber band these before putting them into larger boxes.
- Finally, very very large plastic bins (the largest I could find) for putting in all my unwieldy pots and pans, separated by newspaper and dish towels. Don't worry about wasted space there, and things will go easier.
I guess this is all pretty obvious, but it took me a long while to figure this out, and I've got to say, moving kitchens is now my favorite part of moving. I also get the special packing boxes meant for china and glass, and pack everything up nice and neatly there. People have watched me do this, and noted that it doesn't actually take longer than doing a messy job packing - there's just something about the nature of kitchen stuff that takes time, no matter what. Except that being methodical makes the unpacking take no time at all. Oh, and it also took me a long time to realize that you DON'T move things like wooden dish racks or drawer dividers, bags of old spices or melted plastic strainers. Anything that's worn or waterlogged gets thrown out - moving kitchens is a great time to update all that stuff.
I ended up using the ridiculous number of unworn t-shirts I've accumulated over the years (which were originally tagged for donation) to pack small appliances, pots and pans, etc., thus cutting down on the amount of packing paper I needed. I also put things like tea towels and pot holders that were coming with me anyways to use in the wrapping/cushioning department. I still, however, found that a dishpack system (one of those special boxes with slats for plates and bowls, and the foam covers that fit snuggly over the dishes) was a worthwhile investment since I was carting my stuff across several states rather than just across town.
Good luck with your upcoming move!
My BF and I are moving from a small apartment to a new house we're building in Vermont at the end of the month. Unfortunately, the house (and kitchen) won't be done in time, which means a few weeks staying with his parents while we install floors and paint cabinetry! So everything has to go into storage for a while, and that also means that I have to use up all of our food and miscellaneous condiments before we go. That's the fun part right now... trying to come up with uses for shrimp paste, or oat bran, or blackberry jam!
All the moving tips posted above will be VERY helpful. Does anyone have an idea for packing wine glasses? I'm terrified about what will happen to them in the UHaul!
I used an old cardboard wine case for a lot of my wine glasses. I wrapped them in paper and put them in the wine bottle slots. We'll see how they come through!
And if any of you moving folks have weird ingredients to use up and would like to send me a Cupboard Challenge please do so... :-)
faith: don't tempt me! We're moving at the end of the month, and though it's been very easy to use up a few leftover sausages, tomato paste, pasta, etc, the things like pickled herring, frozen blueberries, 4 kinds of mustard, some barley, and chinese gelatin dessert mixes are proving very tricky. Perhaps I'll make a list of all the sundry items next week, when I'm getting VERY desperate!
What I did with the wine glasses was to stuff a clean sock or two into the bowl part on the theory that it would help absorb any shock, wrapped each glass in two layers of bubble wrap, then put them in shoe boxes, bowl-to-stem style. If there was any wiggle room in the box I plugged the gaps with crumpled newspaper. Not sure that science backs me up on the shock-aborbing sock theory but it made me feel better and I didn't lose any. But thank goodness I have a small number of wine glasses!
Moving or not we all need to update the pantry/spice cupboard regularly. I had the unfortunate experience of a can of tomato juice eating its way through the can and dribbling onto the pantry shelf. This made a sticky mess which has been hard to clean... so I went through everything in the pantry checking expiration dates and got rid of several large heavy grocery bags of goods which were long past their prime. Some donated, some tossed.
Thanx for the great advice! J - I'm looking into the dishpack system, that sounds good. I'm not moving that far - this being england after all - but I am prodigiously skillful in the breakages department!The old-clothes-cushioning thing sounds good too.
And I think some ruthless chucking out is in order - there's a limit to the amount of pretty cappuccino frothers and mismatched chopsticks a person needs...! And maybe a Cupboard Challenge too! I also like having random things to use up, but there are always a few things I just get stuck with...
Thank you!
when i moved to la, my dad packed up my kitchen in ny for me. he did the most amazing job, packing everything the way you'd unpack & use it. which meant: dishes, cutlery, napkins, glasses, tablecloths all went in one box (napkins, tablecloths all cushioned the breakables as well as the felt circles i use between my dishes); stuff you'd use on & near the stove went in another box; baking stuff went in another box; prep stuff went in another box. made unpacking a lot easier. and he used the entire sunday ny times so i could unpack and read at the same time and instead of packing peanuts, unshelled peanuts. now that made for fun unpacking!
On the subject of odd ingredients and spices: I let a friend pack up most of my pantry and spices. She was much more brutal that I would have been myself about keeping things, and I appreciated it at the other end.
I also second the suggestion for getting the specialized dish and glass packaging: worth it even for a short distance, and you can always use it for tidier storage in the new place if, like me, you don't have cabinet space for everything.
I suppose I don't need to tell you that you should plan how you'll use the space before you unpack. When we downsized homes, the kitchen was the last room unpacked because I wanted time to figure out how to efficiently arrange the compact, oddly-laid out space.
The time investment up front really paid off, though: two years later and I haven't ever thought about rearranging, because I have everything at my fingertips right when I need it.
Hey, can I share this information on the louderback moving services blog?

Is your new name toddler-speak for 'oh dear'?
Wow, that change really threw me off! Why is it differerent? I can't remember the benefit?
Does anyone remember this apartment I'm trying to find? I think it wasn't in the US, maybe Sweden? The parents slept in the living room on homemade corner couch that turned into a double bed at night. It was two platforms with wheels which they threw single mattresses on and slipcovered and it had a way of hooking together at night. The child (I think daughter) slept in the bedroom. I think the couple was artists.
My friends just bought a 1 bedroom house and are going to have 4 adults and 2 children living there (CA Bay Area, very low income) They're thinking of buying a cheap futon to put in the living room for the grandparents and I think this idea might be more comfortable.
Thank You
Yeah Ariel! I think I can help. It's saved under my favorites because I've loved it since I first saw it!
I'm sure that's it! :0)

Malin's model-singer little sister proves that talent—and pantslessness—runs in the family.
Photographed by Jacob Dekat | Licensed to Alpha Media Group 2013
Considering you and Malin are sisters, is it safe to assume that your parents are ridiculously attractive?
My dad is pretty lucky. He's been married to two beautiful women—Malin's mom and then my mom. I guess Malin and I got the best of both of them.
You were born and bred in Sweden. What's the most Swedish thing about you?
Swedish girls are really independent and strong, and I'm that way. When I date American guys, they want to take care of you all the time—take you to dinner and pay for your food—but I like to take care of myself.
Besides being a cheap date, you're also a singer in the duo Jaxx. Tell us about it.
It's very indie rock, indie pop. Our music has a really good vibe; you feel something when you listen to it.
Is your song "Kiss Master" about your own smooching abilities?
It's about when you look at someone's lips and imagine what it would be like to kiss them. I'm pretty picky when it comes to kissing, and I would say I'm pretty good at it.

Google Spreadsheets gain sophisticated charting
Summary: Excel might be able to crunch serious numbers for accountants, but new charts make Google Spreadsheets a better choice for displaying data on the Web.
Having just completed a Google Apps training session for one of my clients today, I tucked away Google's announcement of improved charts within their Spreadsheets App for a followup session. While Excel remains king of the spreadsheets, the revised charting and other recent enhancements to the editor and interface make Google Spreadsheets a competitive tool for most users.
Google introduced the new features Tuesday in a blog post and the movie below shows the enhancements.
And while Excel may be king of the spreadsheets, Google has a few tricks up its sleeve. The organization chart, for example, is generated dynamically based on data in the spreadsheet (click here to see an example). Excel requires users to create org charts as SmartArt graphics with no data-driven or programmatic interfaces. Similarly, the longitudinal representations of data are quite powerful. When combined with a form or other interface to add data which are updated in real time and reflected immediately on the chart (which can be embedded in a web page), then there is a lot of functionality that leverages the cloud in ways that Excel just can't. Click here for an example of the "motion chart" (longitudinal analysis).
In fact, I would argue that if your goal is generally to represent data on the Web and your needs don't extend to really sophisticated database-driven analytics, then Google Spreadsheets is actually a better choice than Excel. With virtually any other tool, making dynamic, data-driven charts appear on the Web is no small feat. With these new charting features, it's as easy as entering the data and embedding the chart on a Web page or blog.
I've argued before that Google is better off not trying to create an Office clone in its Apps suite. Rather, they need to focus on exploiting the features of a cloud-based tool that Office just can't match (at least not without SharePoint behind it). In this case, they did just that with attractive, dynamic charts that are simple to create and embed.

Whitepod Resort in the heart of the Swiss Alps won Word Prize for Sustainable Tourism in the 2005 Responsible Tourism Awards. The ski resort consists of a group of fifteen dome pods situated on wooden platforms overlooking the breathtaking alpine wilderness.
Whitepod was designed to provide a sustainable and viable alternative to mass tourism in the Alps […] Produce is purchased locally, often directly from the producers; the cheeses are made by local farmers, the fish is supplied from the local lakes by small independent fishermen, and the game meat is local and purchased directly from the local butcher.
Whitepod's website lists that its goals include using minimal water and electricity throughout the day, reducing the production of waste, favoring the use of renewable resources, and increasing clients' awareness of environmental conservation.
In addition to these incredible geodesic tents, visitors have access to an authentic mountain lodge with a traditional Swiss restaurant, 7km of ski slopes with private lifts, a spa, and a traditional wooden chalet boasting excellent cuisine.
It costs about $443 per night to rent a dome tent with a single or double bed in Whitepod camp. Visitors also have the luxury of choosing between four packages, which range in price from $1,330 to $2,660.
[…] These fair trade puppies are handmade by Guatemalan artisans and cobblers, use recycled tires for soles, and are wearable damn near everywhere.
A team of just thirty artisans works for this company, cutting and assembling each pair by hand. At the end of construction, the sole of each shoe is signed by its maker. The shoemakers employed by Osborn work in a sweatshop-free environment in Guatemala City, Guatemala.
Osborn shoes come in a few different styles (slip-on, bootie, oxford) and pretty much any pattern imaginable. Most are wild and crazy, but there are more neutral shoes for the less daring dresser, too. Some vegan styles are available. Prices range from $78 to $185. The shoes can be purchased online or in select stores.

Start to finish: 1 1/2 hours (plus marinating time)
Serves 12
To make sure the ribs are meltingly tender, they cook low and slow while you watch the first half of the game. They should be good to go right around halftime.
The servings indicated are for appetizer portions. If the friends gathered for the game are hearty eaters, or this will be served as a main course, plan accordingly.
The recipe is from Alison Ladman of the Associated Press.
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 cloves minced garlic
3 pounds boneless beef short ribs, cut into long, thin strips (1/4-inch thick by 1 inch wide)
In a medium bowl, whisk together the hoisin, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, five-spice powder, sesame oil and garlic. Reserve 1/2 cup of the mixture in a small bowl. Add the short ribs to the original mixture and toss to thoroughly coat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate at least 8 hours, or overnight.
When ready to cook, heat the oven to 275 degrees. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil and place a rack on each pan.
Arrange the short ribs on the rack and bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until tender. Brush the ribs with the reserved 1/2 cup of marinade and increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees. Return to the oven and cook for another 10 minutes, or until browned and caramelized. Thread a skewer through each piece.
Per serving: 270 calories; 130 calories from fat (48 percent of total calories); 14 g fat (5 g saturated; 0 g trans fats); 65 mg cholesterol; 11 g carbohydrate; 0 g fiber; 8 g sugar; 23 g protein; 650 mg sodium.

When I arrived in Bali I was fascinated by local artisans who were crocheting traditional ornaments with long strings of metals using a forgotten ancient technique. I knew this was what I looked for to manifest my signature jewelry line using this ancient weaving method.
This iconic 24K gold-plated bangle is what Milena Zu is known for. It takes 20 hours of intricate hand crocheting to finish one piece. Its organic shape cannot be replicated by machine weaving as most products by Milena Zu.

Sometimes it's good to find out how the other half lives. I never knew what sheltered lives we lead here in our little corner of the world.
Friday, I had the opportunity to meet up with an aunt who was visiting from Australia. I haven't seen her for more than 35 years, which is when she and her family left South Africa for Australia. She was one of my favorite aunts growing up - a straight-talking Irish nurse who caught the attention of one of my dad's brothers during his travels. This week she came and spent a couple of days with my sister who lives in and I was thrilled to see her again.
Needless to say, it was a great time of catching up and sharing of photographs. However, one of the photographs caught me by surprise – it wasn't anyone I recognized and I was a little taken aback by what I saw, which was a little too racy to share here. All I can say is when I saw it I did think to myself, "Wow, when I asked what everyone has been doing over the years, I really didn't mean to get that specific."
Anyway, when I asked about it, my 70-something aunt told me it was a picture she took in the town of Kalgoorlie, Australia, while touring a brothel. OK – it had to be like you would see in one of our old cowboy towns right? Something like a replica of a saloon from way back when - a museum construction maybe? Nope, this was a working brothel. Turns out, Kalgoolie is an old mining town in Australia where the brothels have found a great way to maximize profits – working brothels at night and tours for the curious during the day. No wonder Australia has an unemployment rate of 4.3 percent.
The photograph I asked about was the madam showing some poor volunteer on the tour some of the special apparatus in that particular room. My aunt told me the rate for the tour was $25 (Australian). The nighttime rates, however, were much higher. A room rate ranged from $400 to $1,000 depending on your particular preference. The only room she wasn't allowed to take pictures of was the bondage room.
My aunt, who lives in Perth, started her trip in Australia, touring the town of Kalgoorlie before heading to the USA for a visit with her son in Houston, Texas, and then on to my sister and I here in Georgia.
No doubt she found the lifestyle in Grayson miles apart from that in Kalgoorlie - in more than just distance.
An interesting link: An interview between a visiting journalist and a brothel business owner in Kalgoorlie who also serves on the city's town council.

More on U.N. Plan For Governors Island
Editor's Note:
Last week, West Side Spirit ran a letter signed by Mary Sue Daniels, office of the mayor, NYC Commission for the U.N., responding to a request to move the United Nations to Governors Island. The reader who submitted the letter, Scott Baker, of Common Ground NYC and Transportation Alternatives, submitted another letter published below responding to this idea.
Office of the Deputy Mayor for Economic Development and Rebuilding
November 28, 2006
Dear Mr. Baker:
Thank you for your recent letter to Deputy Mayor Doctoroff regarding the United Nations and Governors Island. We appreciate your taking the time to share your suggestion with us.
The idea of relocating the UN to Governors Island is an interesting one, and one that we have raised with the UN at various time (sic) over the last several years. To date they have indicated they are not at all interested in relocating for a variety of reasons, not least of which is the difficulty associated with gaining consensus for a move of that significance among nearly 200 member nations. As the UN owns its site, aside from offering the suggestion and our assistance there is little we can do to push the issue any further.
Thank you again for your letter. We'll continue to keep the idea on our radar screen.
Marc Ricks
Chief of Staff

William Bouguereau (French, 1825-1905) - Atelier at the Academy Julian, Paris, 1891
William Bouguereau
Damien Bartoli in his Biography of William Bouguereau said:
"Bouguereau is unquestionably one of history's greatest artistic geniuses. Yet in the past century, his reputation and unparalleled accomplishments have undergone a libelous, dishonest, relentless and systematic assault of immense proportions."
On the other hand, Ingrid Schaffner said, in her book on Matisse (Bouguereau was an instructor at the Academie Julien when Matisse was a student there.):
"Bouguereau was a master of lick-and-tickle paintings of luscious nymphs." (is that an art history term?)

Zero Assumption Recovery (ZAR) might do it. If Windows will recognize the disk, which yours is, ZAR claims it can recover files off the disk. This includes deleted files. You can download it for free and try it out. It has a limitation of four folders it will recover until you purchase a license but that will give you chance to find out if the drive is recoverable. I've used it twice. Once on a camera module and once on a crashed disk. It worked pretty darn good and I was able to recover hundreds of photos and files. I think it paid for itself. On files that have had the index deleted or corrupted, it will assign the file a number id but that's better than loosing the file. It works from the inside out and walks the disk as it analyzes the data. It's worth a try.
Download critical data recovery software - computer data recovery with ZAR.

Great convertible by regular guy (NOTgay) from San Francisco, CA on 11/26/2003. Trim: 1999 Volvo C70 Convertible, Owned 1 year.
Pros: Seats are very comfortable. i have a bad back, and drove mine from Chicago to San Francisco via Grand Canyon, Las Vegas and Yosemite in great comfort. the car didnt even spin once on the snow storm at the rocky mountains or the many curves at Yosemite. I REALLY hugs the road when you take a curve - like you are on train tracks. When i first got it i was surprised that the cabin is very quiet for a convertible. i used to rent the Chrysler convertible that one is very noisy, but this one is so quiet that you can actually even have a conversation while cruising at 90 miles on the freeway. The top is about 4 inches thick and padded. you appreciate this on a downpour - water DOESNT leak in.
Cons: expensive dealer charges for routine maintenance. Lowering top is slower than a red traffic light. my wife is not happy about this car - she says it makes me drive too fast -- go figure...
Overall review: i will buy another of these C70 convertibles. i am very happy with this one.

Hidden Alcoholism and Family Denial
It appears by all accounts that Diane Schuler was a hidden alcoholic.
Dr. Michelle Golland: It is painful to see the family of Diane Schuler going on television disputing the autopsy report, claiming that she was not drunk or stoned while driving her car, which crashed and killed seven people, including Diane's daughter and three nieces. Unless we learn that she had been abducted and forced to drink the bottle of vodka and smoke pot at gunpoint, any rational person can see that this woman must have had a drug and alcohol problem.
It appears by all accounts that Diane Schuler was a "hidden alcoholic." The hidden alcoholic is a person who controls their drinking enough to live a functional life, and maintains a semblance of normalcy in their marriage, social, and occupational worlds. From what we know, this appears to have been the life of Diane Schuler. We do not know if she was a binge alcoholic regularly, or if something in particular set her off that fateful Sunday morning. What we do know is that she reached for the bottle of vodka and drove and killed herself and seven others.
We can only hope that the family really had no idea about her alcoholic or binge-drinking tendencies. But the sad fact is they may simply be continuing their denial behavior, which is very common in alcoholic families. The complete denial by Diane's family and their unwillingness to even consider that she made some horribly poor choices that morning which led to this tragedy further perpetuates the myth of "what an alcoholic looks like," or the belief that a "mother would never do this." As a clinical psychologist, I can tell you alcohol and drug addiction knows no race, class, or gender. Any person, even a loving and devoted mother, can struggle with alcohol dependency.
There are five types of alcoholics:
1. Young Adult: This accounts for 32% of alcoholics. The average age is 24 years old. They tend to binge drink and not seek help for alcohol issues.
2. Young Antisocial: This accounts for 21% of alcoholics. The average age is 26, and over half have antisocial personality disorder. They tend to use multiple drugs.
3. Functional: This accounts for 19% of alcoholics. They are middle-aged and tend to be in stable relationships, and have higher education and higher incomes than other alcoholics. They tend to drink every other day and consume more than five drinks on drinking days.
4. Intermediate Familial: This accounts for 19% of alcoholics. They are middle-aged and have a family history of alcohol abuse. Nearly 50% are clinically depressed and 20% have bipolar disorder.
5. Chronic Severe Type: This accounts for 9% of alcoholics. They are middle-aged with an early onset of drinking. They are the most prone to psychiatric problems and drug abuse issues. This group is the most likely to receive treatment for their alcohol dependency.
Do you wonder if you have an issue with alcohol? Here are 12 questions to help you find out if you may need some help.
Answer Yes or No:
1) Have you ever decided to stop drinking for a week or so, but only lasted a couple of days?
2) Do you wish people would mind their own business about your drinking and stop telling you what to do?
3) Have you ever switched from one kind of drink to another in the hopes that this would keep you from getting drunk?
4) Have you had to have an "eye-opener" upon awakening during the past year?
5) Do you envy people who can drink without getting into trouble?
6) Have you had problems connected with drinking during the past year?
7) Has your drinking caused trouble at home?
8) Do you ever try to get "extra" drinks at a party because you do not get enough?
9) Do you tell yourself you can stop drinking any time you want to, even though you keep getting drunk when you don't mean to?
10) Have you missed days of work or school because of drinking?
11) Do you have blackouts?
12) Have you ever felt your life would be better if you did not drink?
If you answered "yes" four or more times, you probably have trouble with alcohol. To start on the road to recovery, please go to aa.org.

Great post! I?m just starting out in community management/marketing media and trying to learn how to do it well - resources like this article are incredibly helpful.

Hi Folks,
Just wanted to share this project. Get some tips, or ideas for improvement. It is working at the moment although I have spotted a mistake in the code so AC sockets will not switch back on after a dip in voltage until the next day. Any how the controller is in Spain and I cant change it at the moment.
