2009 Toyota RAV4 SUV Limited 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Very good all around car. Good mileage, great acceleration with decent handling in all conditions. Creature comforts not luxurious but functional.
2009 Toyota RAV4 SUV 4dr SUV (2.5L 4cyl 4A)
I LOVE my faithful RAV4; sturdy, reliable, zippy, easy to park!!
First, I have been driving toyotas before I was aloud to drive...35 years. I have owned used and new. I had a 2005 rav4 ...great car. Everything about that car...5 stars. I bought a 2009 limited V6 3.5 and it is a nightmare. The suspension recall fix involves an epoxy seal on the links which make the adjustable links...unadjustable. meaning...if the rear is out of alignment. ..you have to pay $500+ to have the recall fix done again. I have never had to do anything other than maintenance to my toyotas. This one...3rd pair of shocks...this time i used monroe shocks. ER brake cable...drive train assembly ($1400 part). Blower motor...Such a disappointment... I have 150000 miles on the odometer and it runs great. Done with it.

The RAV drives more like a dune buggy than a 21st century vehicle and leaves an unrefined impression not generally associated with a Toyota (I have owned two other Toyota vehicles).
The 4 cylinder engine is very loud and road noise is pronounced. I can hear suspension, wind, and tire noise at even the lowest speeds on newly paved surfaces. The ride is stiff and the steering feels artificially weighted. Throttle response is jerky, especially at low speeds.
The lack of a rear bumper is a safety concern and the side hinged tail gate is inconvenient. I think this vehicle is cheaply made and not worth the high used vehicle price it commands. Suggest looking elsewhere.
The front and rear seats are roomy. Cargo space is generous. Braking performance is good.
More insulation from road, wind engine and tire noise. A rear bumper and top hinged rear tailgate. Better quality interior trim, steel rims that won't rust after 5 years. Reprogram the throttle response for smoother power delivery.
2009 Toyota RAV4 SUV Sport 4dr SUV 4WD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
I had a 1999 RAV4 that was bulletproof. I recently upgraded to a 2009 Sport V6 w/appearance package. The power of this V6 is amazing and yet fuel economy is not compromised. On a recent 500 mile round-trip I got almost 28 mpg.The 2009 is much more refined and significantly roomier than my old 1999 model. Rear-seat room is significantly improved, as is cargo room, and it is great for families with children and pets. The only disappointment for me is the ride. You feel every little bump, but I think that is specific to the sport model. And hey, it's an SUV after all, not a Cadillac.
The V6 really rocks!
I wish they could find a way to include a spare tire with the appearance package. Even if it was just a temp. (Our van has the spare mounted underneath.)

I can see that the standard base is not of nilpotent element (the elements on the diagonal are not), but can't prove that proposition, or be sure it is even true.
"No" because of the following hints I'm giving you here.
The trace of a nilpotent matrix is zero. What do you know about the traces of $A+B$ and $\lambda A$ for matrices $A,B$ and scalar $\lambda$?
This should make it clear that you won't be able to generate just any matrix with a linear combination of nilpotent matrices.

In a victory for representative democracy in the United States, a federal appeals court in Texas found that the state's strict voter ID law had a discriminatory impact on African American, Hispanic and poor voters. The ruling ordered a lower court to implement a remedy that would allow 600,000 Texans to vote in November, even though they do not have the identification required by the state law.
According to the majority, "It would be untenable to permit a law with a discriminatory effect to remain in operation." It went on to note that while the state has a legitimate interest in preventing voter fraud—the justification given for the strict voter ID laws Texas attempted to put into place—"the articulation of a legitimate interest is not a magic incantation a state can utter to avoid a finding" a discriminatory impact.
This follows a decision earlier in the week in which a federal judge declared voters in Wisconsin who did not have the identification required by Wisconsin law would be able to vote as long as they were willing to sign an affidavit swearing to their identity. The judged called the remedy a "safety net" to ensure citizens were able to participate in the upcoming elections.

I have the ability to "get materials" all kinds of use full things, steel, tanks, pumps, pipe, soils,you name it. I can build anything if I have the materials.
Educate me and my family on AquaPonics. In return I will help supply projects with much needed materials and help locate materials at a fraction of what we would pay for new.

This is when scumbags like Romney and Ryan were not running AGAINST their own country in favor of global banksters, overseas tax dodges, thieving billionaires.
The GOPOX: America-haters.
"But he [Henry Ford] was one of the first business leaders to articulate what economists call the virtuous circle of growth: well-paid workers generating consumer demand that in turn promotes business expansion and hiring. Other executives bought his logic, and just as important, strong unions fought for rising pay and good benefits in contracts like the 1950 Treaty of Detroit between General Motors and the United Auto Workers.
Riding the dynamics of the virtuous circle, America enjoyed its best period of sustained growth in the decades after World War II, from 1945 to 1973, even though income tax rates were far higher than today. It created not only unprecedented middle-class prosperity but also far greater economic equality than today.
The chief executives of the long postwar boom believed that business success and workers well-being ran in tandem.
... At the same time, corporate profits were booming. In 2006, the year before the Great Recession began, corporate profits garnered the largest share of national income since 1942, while the share going to wages and salaries sank to the lowest level since 1929. In the recessions aftermath, corporate profits have bounced back while middle-class incomes have stagnated.
Today the prevailing cut-to-the-bone business ethos means that a company like Caterpillar demands a wage freeze and lower health benefits from its workers, while posting record profits. " NYTs

Obama, Reid and Pelosi are the ones who pulled $716 BILLION dollars from Medicare to pay for his lousy ObamaCare. That is doing a really good job of killing Medicare.
Starting January 2013 my monthly Medicare payment goes from $97 to $200 and on January 2014 it will be $350. All thanks to ObamaCare. So who is killing Medicare? Not Romney, but OBAMA!!!!

You are a liar like your Mormon Messiah America-hater Christian-hater Smutt Romney.
ObamaCare SAVES $716 Billion by reducing Medicare costs by addressing waste, fraud and abuse.
That extends the life of Medicare by a decade.
Smutt Romney, Medicare-hater, plans to KILL Medicare by 2016 by wasting $716 Billion instead.
Republiscum are 100% pathological liars and 100% scumbags.

Here is video of "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" contestant Ken Basin getting the million dollar question wrong. He could have walked away with $500,000 but he took a chance and only walked away with $25,000. (Watch Video)
(Excerpt) Read more at freedomslighthouse.com ...
Saw it last weekend. He's a lawyer and says that lawyers are very risk-averse and that he should have gone to business school instead.
He blows it anyway. At least his girlfriend (wife?) is smart and beautiful, so I don't feel too bad for him.
Yeah, this guy must have voted for Obama. What an idiot. Yoo Hoo was NOT made when LBJ was President. I remember drinking that stuff, it came out in the late 90s. He should have walked away with the money. What a buffoon.
double-or-next-to-nothing is a bad bet and increasingly so as the stakes increase, esp. over 50k if 25k was the worst he could do.
I'm the type to go for the sure thing, but I thought it was Fresca.
"Ever since the 1920s, Yoo-hoo has been making a permanent mark in the history of soft drinks." (from the Yoo Hoo web site)
Nice try
Yoo-Hoo came out in the 1920s, IIRC.
You're wrong. My dad is 62 and drank Yoohoo a lot when he was a kid.
Maybe you mean the late 1890s.
He came to the show with zero and left with 25,000.
I'd take it.
I guess your not a baseball fan? They should have traded
him for a case of Yoo Hoo.
Exactly. From what I've seen on the past shows, if you get to the $100K level, you've really gotten more than one can reasonably expect. I don't think I'd consider going further, no matter what.
"Yeah, this guy must have voted for Obama. What an idiot. Yoo Hoo was NOT made when LBJ was President. I remember drinking that stuff, it came out in the late 90s. He should have walked away with the money. What a buffoon."
I wonder what that stuff was that we drank as kids in the 60s? I'm certain we drank a chocolate drink in the 60s in a bottle with Yoohoo on the label.
But it couldn't have been Yoohoo.
Exactly, 25 grand ain't bad for a day's "work" (sitting on a stool hanging with Regis isn't really work).
I remember that if it wasn't for LBJ drinking Fresca, few people would have ever heard of it. He gave it a minor surge in popularity at the time.
For those of us behind a firewall, what was the question?
Yeah, couldn't have been YooHoo, I remember the stuff from the 90s..it was basically chocolate milk. I remember YooHoo and Nestle's Quick, that was some good stuff too
He's a marooon.
He's young,smart,and probably makes good money!
$500,000 invested now while everything is on sale....
Ya know what, I think I was thinking of Nestle's Quick. I can admit I was wrong. I really thought it came out in the 90s because I remember drinking it then, then it wasn't popular anymore. My mistake, either way, the guy should have taken the 500,000 grand and ran home with it
The guy never would have even gotten to the million dollar question if he wasn't a risk taker. My guess also was Yoo-hoo, since I remember drinking it in the 60s (and the commercials with Yogi Berra) and it just seems more like an LBJ beverage than Fresca, which I always think of as more a girly drink (though not as much as its diet soda partner Tab). That being said, I would not have gone for it without have more than just a guess to go on.
Yoohoo took a big jump in general availability and popularity in the late 80s, and again in the 90s, so you weren't entirely out there.
Wrong. Corp. Radar O'Reilly drank YooHoo all the time in Korea in the late '50s.
For ordering his favorite beverages on demand, LBJ had four buttons installed in the Oval Office labeled "coffee," "tea," "Coke," and what?
The four choices were;
A:Fresca B: V8
C:Yoo-hoo D: A&W
My parents drank Yoo-Hoo as children in the 1950s and early 1960s.
Absolutely. He was too smart by half.
BTW, Nestle introduced Ready-to-Drink Quik Chocolate Milk in 1984, so you're much closer with that one. Nestle Quick Chocolate Powder goes back to the late '40s.
Lawyer, huh? Maybe he can sue for being asked questions he couldn't answer, example: "Why is the beach so close to the ocean?"
Chocolate Soldier?
Well I remember drinking root beer a lot in the 1970s in Texas.
Hard to say what anyone's tastes would be.
Would've been harder if there'd been Lone Star or Pearl on that list.
Fresca would've been for the secretarial pool.
What is the answer, please?
That was his preferred drink.
I think I remember an episode or so ... where he drank Yoo-Hoo.
For those behind firewalls the contestant chose C: Yoo-hoo. The correct answer was A: Fresca.
"I guess your not a baseball fan? They should have traded
him for a case of Yoo Hoo."
Please refrain from giving the Pittsburgh Pirates any more ideas.
The answer was Fresca. I thought Yoo Hoo was a dumb answer, as LBJ didn't seem like the type to guzzle a chocolate kiddie drink. Not sure I'd have got it right either, though. I'd have probably guessed V8.
He still ended up with way more than he deserved.
I'm 64 and don't remember a time when Nestle's Quick chocolate wasn't around. But I do remember that the strawberry flavor came out in the 60s.
I was drinking Yoo Hoo in the 1940s.
...Id have probably guessed V8...
That would have been my guess. Is this a rerun or has Millionaire returned?
It was a new episode. It was a limited-run 10th anniversary series hosted by Regis Philbin.
Based on all the answers I'm reading, I think the guy should hire a lawyer and file a formal protest against the show for asking a question that has no apparent correct answer........LOL!
Bzzzzt! Nestle's Quick probably came out even before Yoohoo.
Dang ... I'd have bailed on that one. As far as I know, they were all available at the time, and I know nothing of LBJ's drinking habits.
Thanks. I'm not a big TV watcher so had no idea.
Back in VN we were so far up north...on the DMZ the
only soft drink that made it up to us was Fresca,I still
can`t drink it to this day.
That lawyer`s a poor gambler for sure.
This guy must have never worked in a restaurant. Fresca and A&W were the more likely choices of a dispenser, distributed in those big tanks. I can't imagine yoo hoo or V8 was ever dispensed. And by that token, Fresca is more of an adult drink. Stupid lawyer. Gambles $475,000 on a guess.
Isn't the first rule of litigation to know the answer before you ask the question?

I've just had a read some of Tim Ferris's blog, he's the author of "The 4hr work week". He's probably the most famous Global Nomad going, and extremely successful.
But my god, his blog is just rammed with bullshit. I haven't read his book (I won't be lining his pocket on principle, lol....torrent anybody?!). He does have some useful entries, and I'm sure he is an inspiration to many, but with entries such as "How I gained 34lbs of muscle in 4 weeks" (and no mention of juice/proof of time period in the photo's) it's clear this guy is a master bullshitter. (Anyone who knows anything about physiology knows that gaining 8.5lbs muscle per week naturally just can't be done).
Anyway, congrats Tim on achieveing a great lifestyle, but come on: cut the crap.

Posted on 03/31/2005 5:39:21 AM PST by TXBSAFH
A LoneStarTimes.com investigation has exposed concerted efforts last year by two senior officials of the Friendswood Independent School District to maximize district revenues and increase the property tax burden of Friendswood homeowners by manipulating the appraisal process, issuing legal threats, and deploying unprecedented pressure on the Galveston County Appraisal District.
The FISD officials in question are Superintendent Patricia "Trish" Hanks and Tax Assessor/Collector Becky Carbone.
In late February of this year, LST made an open-records request to both FISD and GCAD asking for any and all communication between the two entities for the dates 5/1 - 6/30, 2004. Documents subsequently reviewed by LST staff reveal a series of disturbing actions by FISDs Hanks and Carbone.
According to a 6/9/04 memo written by Deputy Appraiser Mitch McCullough to GCADs Chief Appraiser Ken Wright, in early April 2004 FISDs Carbone intervened in GCADs preliminary and ongoing appraisal process by supplying MLS home sale information she had collected and compiled on her own. A source close to the matter who asked to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of his position, tells LST:
"I dont know if FISD cherry-picked their data, but their intent was clearly to increase appraisals. Obviously, they are only going to present information that advances their position."
Carbones manipulation of GCADs sales ratio reports resulted in
" an increase in value to six neighborhoods."
according to McColloughs memo.
In a subsequent phone interview with LST, GCADs Wright indicated that the neighborhoods where property tax burdens increased as a result of Carbones actions were Castle Park, Regency Estates, Regency Estates Section Four, Sun Meadow, Carmel Village, and The Forest Section Seven.
On May 14th, FISD was informed by GCAD of their updated preliminary valuations for 2004. Still not content with the substantial increase in revenue they were set to receive, FISDs Hanks and Carbone insisted on what our source described as an "unprecedented" face-to-face meeting between themselves, several FISD board members, and Chief Appraiser Wright, to be held 5/27/04.
The evening before this meeting was set to occur, FISDs board of directors, at the request of Hanks and Carbone, unanimously authorized a "challenge petition" of Wrights appraisals to the State Comptrollers Office if necessary.
Although allowed under Texas Property Tax Code, such formal challenges being made to state-level authorities reflect poorly on county appraisers, and according to LSTs source:
"Its safe to assume that by authorizing this protest on the eve of their meeting with GCAD, FISD was hoping to intimidate Wright and get him to play ball."
Sources confirm that the meeting was held on May 27th. Hand-written notes on a related memo indicate that in addition to Hanks and Carbone, the three FISD board members in attendance were Mike Shaw, Rev. Hobrascht and John Ring.
In response to the meeting, GCADs Wright sent FISDs Hanks a letter, the full text of which follows (Note: Emphasis in bold added by LST):
June 16, 2004
Ms. Patricia Hanks, Superintendent Friendswood Independent School District 302 Laurel Drive Friendswood, Texas 77546
Dear Ms. Hanks:
After meeting with you, your tax assessor-collector, and several members of your Board of Trustees, I discussed your concerns about the level of appraisals for several of your neighborhoods with my appraisal staff. The additional information (sales) provided by your tax collector was evaluated and entered into our mass appraisal database. This changed our opinion of value on some properties. Some neighborhoods values were not changed because my appraisal staff determined that the level of information would not allow the CADs opinion of value to prevail. The CAD is held to a high level of accuracy before our Appraisal Review Board. The burden of proof in those hearings is on the CAD.
I briefed my staff on the importance of value increases to our taxing entities and emphasized the significance of every taxpayers hearing. While it is always wise to pay close attention to our property owners concerns, it is also important to keep the needs of our taxing jurisdiction in mind.
As you pointed out in our meeting, Friendswood ISD has historically counted on a 7-11% increase in value. The past three years bear this out with a 9% average increase during this time period. It appears that 2004 will fall a little short of that expectation after all efforts have been exerted to find additional value for your district. I personally know that Friendswood ISD with its student growth needs every penny that it can get, and with changes looming at the legislative level, we are all wondering where it will end up. I am disappointed that we could not meet your expectation with regard to value increases, but assure you and your Board of Trustees that we are making every effort to maintain an equitable and uniform appraisal roll.
Thanks for bringing your concerns to my attention. If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.
Ken Wright, Chief Appraiser
To summarize, Wrights letter contains the following revelations:
Confirmation that FISDs manipulation of GCADs mass appraisal database with their own home sales data increased property tax burdens in a number of Friendswood neighborhoods; Indications that much of the data FISD attempted to feed into the appraisal process was of such poor quality and questionable accuracy that GCAD dismissed it in its entirety; Because of FISDs pressure, appraisal district staff were encouraged to minimize the concerns of homeowners protesting their appraisals so that FISDs revenue could be maximized; FISD has enjoyed and appears to "count" on Friendswood homeowners property tax burdens increasing at or near the current 10% cap annually, and views any less than that amount as cause to pressure the appraisal district to find more revenue. LSTs investigations into attempts by taxing jurisdictions to influence the appraisal process to maximize homeowners property tax burdens continues, statewide.
Further revelations are forthcoming.
Bump and Ping.
He suggested that a simple solution to these taxing entities overvaluing properties would be to add a box on the home owner's copy of the appraisal marked:
While the home owner would still be free to protest the evaluation, checking this box would require the taxing entity to buy the house at their inflated price.
Last I heard 30 years ago, my ex-wife was teaching at Friendswood...
Just though ya'll'd wanta know.
If we continue our failure to properly supervise our employees in government this, and much more, is to be expected!
My wife teaches in Deer Park. And for the record teachers are not paid enough. Having said that the problem with these school district aren't the schools it is the Administration. On average half of the people who work for a schoold district are administration and support, they are not directly involved with teaching. Trim the fat in the front office and you would be surprised how much money there would be to actually teach the kids.
Excellent idea!!
Same story everywhere.
As for over valuating homes to increase taxes......that goes on everywhere as well.
Sort of the reverse of this idea:
Property owner appraises his own property, pays taxes on that valuation, but MUST accept any purchase offer at that price.
Exactly, schools are no longer education institutions, they are bureaucratic jobs programs.
Gad! When my ex-wife was still my wife, she taught at Pasadena and we lived in Deer Park...
Small world, ain't it?
Except that, in that case, he may be forced to sell when he doesn't want to.
If this continues, we should consider changing the name of the state from "Texas" to "Taxes".
I would make a suggestion that every homeowner in Texas should protest their appraisal.
Since the appraisal process is "rigged", serious doubt regarding how much good this will do. Open to any suggestions regarding what else to do.
About $400,000 in our tiny little town.
In the meantime, the kids can't read, write, or do math because the teachers refuse to 'teach to the test'......
Cannot wait to get out of corrupt NJ
I plan on protesting mine (even if it goes down).
You coming down from NJ? Another Yankee --- there goes the neighborhood, ROFLOL.
Texas or as one poster put it "Taxes" is getting just as bad.
Sort of the reverse of that idea: People own their land outright, and don't rent it from the government, and the government reduces its scope and gets the money it needs to operate from elsewhere. (E.g. phone, gas, electricity, sewer, drainage, sales, income, and excise taxes, fees, traffic tickets ... do you suppose that could possibly be enough?)
Hey, I have grown to love yankees. My wife is from Methuen Mass. I do not have a choose.
Robert Heinlein proposed this idea in several of his novels. My main problem with it, is that if someone had a family property that they didn't want to sell. This system would force them to massively overvalue their property (and thus pay a lot more taxes than they would reasonably owe) if they wanted to keep it in the family.
LOL...planning on moving to CO......but it's going downhill too.
I was thinking Alaska but that is too cold for me.
What about secession and starting our own country? ROFLOL.
Tell me where....or we can become clones of John Galt.
florida does something similar.
In FL your home's (you only get one homestead) taxes can not increase more than 3.5% max per year. So the appraisers jack up the valusation as much as possible so when the homestead is sold, the tax amount is rebooted. Thus a longtime owner could be paying $1,000.00 but after the sale the new owner's rebooted rate could be $4,000.00
What really gets me in this discussion is the following:
1) The appraisal caps only reduce the rate of growth in government spending. Forget about actuallly cutting spending (TX politicans have turned into DC politicians).
2) If the local entities really need more money, they can ask the voters to raise the tax rates. The appraisals are set by the appraisal districts, so the local government gets more tax cash withour "raising taxes".
3) It looks like we will get increase sales tax and a new payroll tax without ANY property tax relief. The reduction in tax rate for schools will be only temporary as the appraisal increases will quickly erode the benefit.
4) Many of the opponents are Republicans. If no tax relief is passed this session, can you say "Democrat Controlled TX State Legislator"? Then we face more tax increases and another round of redistricting where the U.S. Congressional breakdown would be Dem 32 Rep 0 (and I am not joking).
5) As the article states, they are artificially jacking up the appraisals in some towns to satisfy budget demands. I know the 2004 appraised value of every house in my sub-division (I have one of the bigger homes). The information is public record and available on-line. Information will be used in the protest I am contemplating.
6) Another interesting point. Some politicans against the appraisal caps have had zero increase of appraisal value in recent years. Conspiracy? I would give odds on it.
Unless things have changed since Aug. '02 when I moved to TX, the Chicago Teachers' Union required that all administrative personnel working in the main Chicago school headquarters have TEACHING CERTIFICATES. Receptionists, secretaries, file clerks, etc. all received the same pay, raises and benefits as those in the classroom. Featherbedding at its zenith.
We have received an overwhelming number of inquiries into who people should contact to demand a formal investigation into the revelations LST has made concerning FISDs interactions with GCAD.
The good news is that an investigation is already underway. TX Attorney General Greg Abbotts office has had this letter in its possession for over three weeks, and the matter is under review.
What you can do, however, is encourage them to pursue the investigation not just into FISD and GCAD, but into the statewide practices of tax entities and appraisal districts.
Doing this is a little tricky the AGs office gets tons of phone calls on a wide variety of issues, and while the staff is polite and helpful, they have been trained to try to fit you into a particular "box" on their organizational chart. If you dont fit perfectly, youll wind up in the wrong place or be told you need to call the Galveston Co. District Attorney, the State AG doesnt handle this sort of thing, etc. etc.
So follow these instructions to the letter and you should be fine:
Call the AGs office toll-free at 1-800-252-8011. (Para Espanol, por favor, primer numero uno ahora.) Tell the switchboard operator using this exact language the following:
"Hello, I would like to speak with a public information officer about encouraging the Attorney General to pursue an ongoing investigation."
NOTE: Dont bother telling the switchboard operator what the investigation is about, how outraged you are, how your appraisal is too high, how your bunions hurt, or anything else. You are only going to complicate things and make it more likely you will be sent to the wrong "box".
You will be transfered. Once you connect with a public information officer, give them your name and city of residence. When they ask you the nature of your call simply say the following word for word:
"I am calling to encourage the Attorney General to pursue his ongoing investigation of the interactions between FISD and GCAD, and to encourage him to expand his investigation into the possibility of similar actions taking place between taxing entities and appraisal district statewide. Thank you."
NOTE: Again, say nothing about what happened in your last appraisal protest hearing or about your neighbors barking dog; they dont want to hear it, they cant do anything about it, you will only complicate matters.
If the public information officer tells you this isnt the right number to call, the AG doesnt handle this sort of thing, etc., simply tell them:
"I appreciate what you are saying, but that determination has already been made. The investigation is already ongoing in AG Abbotts office. I am simply encouraging him to pursue further a matter he is already looking into. Thank you."
Leave us a comment here at LST to let us know how your phone calls are going.
Well, yeah, but people will build in a comfortable bonus for themselves and a penalty for buyers and then they'll have added incentive to agitate for a lower tax rate, too! Don't forget that the system as it stands already allows condemnation for valuation. Would you prefer the government set that value or the homeowner? I know which one I'd be happier about!

This paper reports on the fabrication and evauation of a conductive polymer dot array as a patterned medium for scanning multiprobe data storage system based on the technology of scanning probe microscopy (SPM). The dot array was formed by electron beam lithography and selective electrolytic polymerization from self-assembled monolayer on Au surface. The conductance of the conductive polymer dots was electrochemically changed by the application of voltages with a conductive SPM tip. It is demonstrated that conductive polymer possesses the potential ability for the patterned media of scanning probe data storage systems.

Animated Feature Films by One Animator
So I know about Bill Plympton, Don Hertzfeldt, Nina Paley, and Phil Nibbelink, but are there any other people who have animated an entire feature length film all by themselves?
Trying to remember name of Mac 2D animation program from 1985
I can't remember much about it but I'm trying to remember the name of a Classic Mac-era program that let you create animations in the black-and-white style of Dark Castle. It came with a demo that scrolled and had funny stuff happening in it.

Help me find this short animated film from the late eighties
I'm trying to hunt down a short film I saw in the late eighties/early nineties. It centres on an animator battling with his own animation. The camera is mostly locked off looking at the paper, and the animator's hand can be seen. The little guy he is drawing is trying to escape from the page I think. The animator draws various obstacles for him and rubs part of his body out etc. [more inside]

Need help finding Stop Motion Animation Shorts for kids

Easy/cheap/cool visualizations?
I'm a member of a psychedelic rock band, and none of us are so good-looking or stage-charismatic that we'd want to be the primary thing people stare at. So we'd like to do the video-projection thing. But... we're not so into the classic hippie-melting-colors look, or the collage-of-spaceships-and-mushroom-clouds-and-wise-indians thing. What we'd really like, I think, is some simple geometric shapes, slowly morphing and transforming in hypnotic ways. Like a screensaver, only not lame. Any suggestions for the best way to do this? [more inside]
Anything is possible
What is the word/phrase Ami and Yumi say at the beginning of nearly every episode of Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi Show? It sounds like "soo-tah-toe," phonetically. DOT Jr. is a huge fan, so in our household, this is a question of some importance. As seen in this clip.
70s children's animated short film w men and women on separate islands
I'm trying to find a film that was shown to me when I was in first grade in 1976. It was a stop-motion animation film that was about a situation where all the men live on one island and all the women live on another island. They attempt to come together, but there is the difficulty of getting from one island to the other to contend with. The look of the film was like Gumby - it may have been claymation, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?

Short animated film about monkeys and happy dancing bananas??
I'm beginning to think I imagined this one, but I'm pretty sure it's real.

I can't seem to find the damn thing again, though. Help? [more inside]

Modern-ish animation suggestions
I'm a mid-30s guy who loved the traditional animation of my youth. I never really grew out of cartoons. Don Bluth is my spirit animal. I just watched Over the Garden Wall and it touched on just about everything I love. I was seriously gushing after every episode. That is what I want more of. [more inside]

In what style of art is the end credits for the Boxtrolls?
We saw The Boxtrolls yesterday, and I was struck by the art that played during the end credits sequence. It looks familiar, but for the life of me I can't find a name for the style or that artist. It's a sketchy sort of line drawing, black lines with color accents, lots of tall houses with ornamentation, and for some reason reminds me vaguely of 60s or 70s animation. Does anyone else know what I'm half-remembering?
Online Art Communities and Tutorials for a Non-Beginner?
I'm a blocked artist. I worked professionally in graphic design/animation for many years, but professional burn out kicked my butt and I've barely picked up a pencil (let alone a Cintiq) for well over a year. I'd like to get involved in drawing again, starting with baby steps cuz that's the kind of snowflake I am. [more inside]

Help me find this ink blob animation
I recall vivid fragments of a short film that used to be shown as filler on Showtime or Cinemax during the mid 80s (?), around the same time they would show the evolution segment of Allegro non troppo. It was drawn in a minimalist wiggly thickly inked style. The protagonist was a very thin guy in a ridiculously broad suit of armor. He escapes the "boss battle" by slipping out the back of his armor. The princess runs to hug the empty suit of armor and plummets off a cliff. I recall it as being mostly white backgrounds and the transitions were ink splotches. Dialogue was minimal or non-existent. Can you name this short?

Electronica-scored "Fantastic Planet"/"Planete Sauvage"?
Years ago I saw a version of the classic weird animated sci-fi movie Fantastic Planet (Planete Sauvage) where the sounds and dialogue had been completely replaced by electronic music from Venetian Snares, Matmos, and the like. I can't find it anywhere - all the sites that blogged about it link to the same outdated video link. Anyone have a line on it? [more inside]

Make Me a Maya Maven
In an effort to improve my work situation and life in general, I have decided that I need to make a slight career adjustment, and that adjustment necessitates that I (re)learn how to use Maya. This scares me because I am so far out of my element since I am 6+ years out of college (where I learned Maya as part of my degree). Assuming all I need is a technical education, where online could I start to learn how to model and animate again? I just want to be able to claim basic proficiency on my resume and not be lying about it.
Which book am I looking for? Um, it was blue...?
There's a video I'm trying to find - like a flash animation or maybe a youtube thing, from 5-ish ~ 10-ish years ago. All I remember is that it had like, geometric shapes that moved around, and the narration was a stream of consciousness thing, and the only part of the narration I remember is "this is why you drink." It was the kind of thing I'd expect to see on Boing Boing, maybe. Anyone have any idea at all what I might be talking about?

The Heart of Downtown Las VegasPosted Jul 28, 2016
Pros: The location, the fact that they have their own pool, they give you a coupon book to use and they have many restaurant options inside the hotel
Cons: The lamp was broke in my room and I could've used an outlet for charging my phone that was not on the floor by the door
Location: Just walk down Fremont and you will find things to do, but I recommend the Mob Museum on 3rd and Stewart.
I got into Las Vegas late Thursday night and took the shuttle to The Plaza. When I got there, there was a wonderful concierge (who I am so sorry I forgot his name, but it was 2 am my time so I was SO not focused on anything but sleep at this point), but he asked me about the reason for my visit and when I told him it was for a job, it turned out he used to work for the same place. We chatted about his experience, he gave me some good advice, even helped me figure out what bus I needed to take to get where I was going. While checking my room confirmation, he noticed the suite I had booked and since I was alone, he thought I would be more comfortable in a Junior Suite. And I was. I could see and hear everything right down Fremont from my room, it was perfect. The bed was so comfortable I wish I could have taken it with me. I loved the fact that there was a Keurig, with no decaf coffee thank you :-), and a fridge in my room. I plan on staying there again if I haven't already moved out there.

Former Michigan factory worker named U.S. poet laureate
Poetic language pops up in journalistic prose when writers use metaphors and other elegant phrases. Look for colorful wording in editorials, features and even headlines.
Can you spot coverage of another local, state or federal government arts program?
Find a review or news report about any literary, visual or performance creativity.
A new federal appointee isn't a politician, regulator or bureaucrat. Philip Levine is more interested in poetry than policy, art instead of argument. The graduate of Detroit Public Schools and former Michigan factory worker last week became U.S. poet laureate for 2011-12, a position authorized by Congress in 1985. The duties sound simple, but also challenging: Spread appreciation of poems as worth reading and writing.
Levine, who lives in Fresno, Calif., and was selected by the Library of Congress, earns $35,000 to broaden the audience for poetry. Appointees generally deliver readings and other appearances around the country, as well as writing about the value of poetry. Levine's work reflects a background in a chemical plant, two auto factories and driving a truck. Later he taught English and writing at Harvard, Yale, the University of Michigan and California State.
James Billington, the Librarian of Congress, calls Levine "the laureate of the industrial heartland." (Laureate, which means someone who is honored, is pronounced LORE-ee-ATE.)
Poet laureate says: "I know a great many poems that I love and that most people have never heard of. Some of them are quite magnificent." -- Philip Levine
Official says: "He introduced me to a whole new world I hadn't connected to in poetry before. . . . It's a very, very American voice. I don't know that in other countries you get poetry of that quality about the ordinary workingman." -- James Billington, Librarian of Congress
Professor says: "He is America's most-acclaimed working-class poet. He will bring poetry to the people through his accessible and dimensional poems about the working class, Detroit and post-industrial America. . . . Phil will make a difference in how Americans see and understand poetry." -- M.L. Liebler, Wayne State University (Detroit)

A businessman sued the promoters of the Atkins Diet and the estate of founder Dr. Robert Atkins, alleging that the low-carb, high-fat meal plan clogged his arteries and threatened his health.
The suit by Jody Gorran, filed Wednesday in Palm Beach County Circuit Court, seeks $15,000.
Gorran, 53, said Thursday he started the diet in May 2001 because his weight had risen from 140 to 148 pounds. In two months, he said, his cholesterol rose from a normal 146 to an unhealthy 230, and by October 2003, he needed heart angioplasty to clear his arteries.
"I came very close to dying, and this is from a diet I thought was marvelous," said Gorran.
Atkins Nutritionals said in a statement that it stands by the science that has "repeatedly reaffirmed the safety and health benefits of the Atkins Nutritional Approach."
The company questioned the motivation of a Washington-based advocacy group that helped Gorran with the suit. The group, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, promotes a vegan diet banning meat, fish, dairy and egg products.
"We should not let the real issue, providing people with a scientifically validated nutritional choice in the face of a worldwide obesity and type 2 diabetes epidemic, be manipulated by this extremist animal rights vegan group," Atkins Nutritionals said in a statement.
For years, doctors and nutritionists have debated the Atkins diet, which advocates meat, eggs and cheese, frowns on bread, rice and fruit, and allows up to two-thirds of calories from fat, more than double the usual recommendation.
The diet doctor, who died last year at 72 after falling on an icy sidewalk in New York, argued that carbohydrates generate too much insulin, which makes people hungrier and encourages them to put on fat. His books, including the best-selling "Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution," have sold 15 million copies and attracted millions of followers.
The advocacy group said Gorran's suit is the first to recently question the merits of the Atkins diet. In 1979, a New York jury rejected an elderly, overweight woman's lawsuit claiming that the Atkins Diet caused her heart disease.
Gorran, who owns a company that makes solar panels for swimming pools, said he believes Atkins products should warn of a risk for developing health problems when eating meat and other foods that are endorsed by the diet and are high in saturated fat.
"For 2½ years, I extolled the virtues of this diet to anyone who listened because I was losing weight and I felt great. But when I started, I had no idea I was making a deal with the devil for trying to keep a 32-inch waistline," he said.
