In the past several years, well over
500 1200 students have joined my Create A Profitable Online Store course. But I have to be straight up honest with you. Not every one who has signed up has succeeded with their online store.
When it comes to the success of any online business, the biggest variable in the equation is always YOU. Do you have the necessary motivation and drive to succeed? Do you have the persistence to push through the initial learning curve? Do you have an open mind for learning?
After teaching my class for several years now, I've found that the most important aspect of running an online business is execution and persistence. Can you carry out what needs to be done? And do you balk at the first sign of adversity?
Today, I want to talk about some of the patterns that I've noticed with the students in my class who have done well. And I also want to point out some common pitfalls with students who have failed.
My hope is that my analysis will help set the proper expectations for those who are thinking about starting an online business or quitting their existing one.
So without further ado, here's my take on what the successful students in my class are doing versus what the failing students are not.
Successful Shop Owners Don't Sit Around Waiting For Traffic To Magically Appear
In any given group of students, there are always those who refuse to spend any money or do any additional legwork after their store has launched.
They come into the class with a grand vision that they'll start ranking immediately in the search engines within a month. And traffic will be free flowing like water.
These students usually start out very diligently by finding a pretty good niche, acquiring vendors and even putting up a decent looking website.
But then they launch and refuse to spend any more money or do any additional marketing because they are waiting for the magical Google traffic spigot to open up.
What usually happens next is that they'll waste time rearranging different parts of their site and doing other silly things that are completely irrelevant when they could be writing content, buying PPC or CSE ads, building backlinks or doing some good ole legwork.
Within a few weeks, they quickly become discouraged by their lack of sales and they start doubting themselves. Was this the right decision? Did I just waste all of my time on a shop that generates no income?
Meanwhile, it's only been a couple of weeks and they haven't really done anything proactive to build traffic to their website.
Note to all new business owners: The launch of your website is just the beginning!
After you've launched your online store is when the real work begins. And often times you will either have to spend money to acquire traffic or do some legwork to get customers in the door. The legwork is the key.
Early on with our online store, we did a combination of cold calling, forum marketing, content marketing, PPC marketing and funneling prospects from Ebay to attract our early customers. In fact, search engine traffic was practically non-existent until the 6 month mark.
Without our other efforts, we wouldn't have generated many sales at all during the first 6 months. Don't be afraid of the legwork. It's not glamorous and it's not always fun, but early on you need to do what you need to do to get customers in the door.
Successful Shop Owners Choose Winnable Niches
A large part of my course is devoted to helping students find the right niche and there's always a delicate balance when deciding what to sell online. On one end of the spectrum, you need to sell something that has sufficient demand. But on the other hand, the product category must not be too competitive.
I can't tell you how many students sign up for my class with a preconceived notion of what they want to sell. And without doing an ounce of analysis, they've already decided to sell a product without doing any research.
But here's the thing. Even after running the numbers and realizing that "selling t-shirts" is probably not the best idea, they go for it anyways. Now I don't want to say that it's impossible to succeed in a highly competitive niche.
However, it will be much more difficult and your time frame to profitability will be significantly longer. The niche that you choose is important and picking the right product to sell will make things much easier for you in the long run.
In fact, I would not even consider launching an online store of any kind without running a quantitative analysis of my potential profitability. It's not a guessing game. There's a science behind choosing the right product.
The best students in my class spend a good amount of time researching every aspect of their niche before they fully commit their time and money. Even though they are anxious to jump straight into the implementation phase, they take their time to make sure that this first crucial step is done correctly.
Not only that, but the best students in my class make sure they can provide a unique value proposition which makes their shop stand out among the competition.
Successful Shop Owners Always Follow Through
This last point is critical and often times the most difficult aspect of teaching my course. As part of my class, I take the time to thoroughly critique a student's site before they go live.
The hope is that by providing early and actionable feedback, a student can avoid wasting time and money on PPC ads or other forms of marketing for a non-converting site.
As far as I know, there is no other class or online program out there that does this. Not only does it take a tremendous amount of my own personal time, but I also take a lot of pride in providing honest and actionable feedback.
Anyways, there are times after a website critique where I notice that a student never ends up acting upon any of my feedback. Now I'll be the first to say that I'm not always 100% correct, but I'm usually pretty close.
And in general, it frustrates me to see someone failing even though I know that a few tweaks here and there could make a huge difference.
Running an online business is not a stagnant affair. Even after you've launched, you should be constantly tweaking your site and making small changes to improve conversions. Testing is the key.
The people who fail are the ones who are not willing to make any major changes after launch. Don't fall into this trap!
What defines a successful entrepreneur versus a failing entrepreneur is how you behave when things don't go as planned.
- Failing entrepreneurs tend to wallow in self pity at their lack of progress.
- Failing entrepreneurs tend to stay on the same path even though things are not working.
- Failing entrepreneurs feel helpless, make excuses and play the victim card.
Meanwhile, successful entrepreneurs take a step back, analyze what went wrong and plot a different course of action.
Do you have the character traits of a successful shop owner? If so, then I want you in my class:) I love running my course but sometimes I get frustrated when a student doesn't follow through. What can I say? I'm very passionate about making sure my students succeed.
I want everyone to make money online and I hate seeing someone give up when they are so close to the tipping point. Sometimes, it's just a matter of time until things start clicking. Sometimes it's just a matter of time until search engine traffic or word of mouth kicks in.
The main thing is that you need to set proper expectations for yourself and for your business. Making money online is not something that happens overnight. It's a marathon and not a sprint so you need to give yourself the necessary runway to give things a fair shot.

I've been talking about getting a BA since I was in my early 20's. Now that I'm turning 35, I finally had the nerves to do it. I knew it was a popular procedure, but knowing that I had to go under with general anesthesia, it kept me from making my final decision. I'm so happy that I finally did it. The day of surgery (397 cc, inframammary, submuscular), I admit I was nervous. BUT, as soon... READ MORE

Creating a good objective for a cleaning resume is important as the objective performs three vital functions. First, it tells the resume reader who you are professionally. Second, it gives the reader an idea of what kinds of experience you have. Third, it explains why the company should hire you. If that sounds like a lot, it is. However, if you follow the proper format and do it carefully, a well-written objective can make the proper first impression and get you one step closer to an interview.
Scan the job listing and any company literature you can put your hands on. Many larger and even some smaller companies are using software to screen resumes. You want to identify the keywords they will be looking for so that you can include them in your objective and resume as a whole. Look for nouns and adjectives that describe employees and potential employees.
Introduce Yourself
The first goal of the resume objective is to let the screening or interview committee know who you are. For a resume in the cleaning industry, introduce yourself with the job description in mind. As long as your qualifications work, use the exact term the company uses: For instance, "Professional Maintenance Specialist..."
Include Some Detail
Next, mention a few key areas where your experience matches what the company needs. Items such as large facility cleaning, basic plumbing, machinery experience or certification all can appear here: For example, " Professional Maintenance Specialist with 10 years experience in large facility maintenance, including landscaping and refurbishing...."
Give Them a Reason to Interview You
Finally, you need to tell the committee why the company should call you in for an interview over the next candidate. Resist the temptation to give a reason for wanting the job that focuses on you and your career goals. Tell them what you can do for them. For instance, " Professional Maintenance Specialist with 10 years experience in large facility maintenance, including landscaping and refurbishing, seeks cleaning position in a large multi-faceted facility where I can use my varied experience to be a go-to member of a maintenance team."

If you see comments on this page, they remain for archive purposes.
This discussion stalled last February, but looking at it again, I really don't think we need this category. The four items currently here are quite odd. I understand why Nate wanted this, but I just don't think it works as a category. There's Muppet dolls (Brass Key), which are the closest thing to "Muppet Dolls" in the sense of Barbie-like representations of Muppets that come with outfits. That item was formerly in Category:Muppet Toys. Famous Femmes du Histoire are porcelain figurines, large enough to qualify as dolls I suppose but meant to be displayed, not played with at all. Miss Piggy Paper Doll (Colorforms) is, well, a cardboard paper doll set, which doesn't fit in with the others at all. Finally, Madame Alexander dolls are clearly dolls, but not Muppet dolls (they just come with Muppet accessories or outfits). Looking at the discussion below, Nate questioned two items, which have plush bodies and hard plastic heads, as being dolls, but companies like Applause and the like made these all the time back in the day (before the shift to less plastic or even no plastic parts, for safety and possibly environmental reasons). So I'd like to just revert those four items to their previous categorizations. If anything, this could potentially be a fun list, but as a category, I don't think it works. -- User:Aleal 02:20, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
playing with dolls
This category was deleted quite awhile ago, but I resurrected it. My question is this: What distinguishes a [[:Category:Muppet Dolls|Doll]] from Plush? My case are the three items listed in the doll category. They are not plush by any means. And since Danny has encouraged more categories in Merchandise, I propose resurrecting this category. But I'm wondering if we can come to a consenses on what should be placed here. The following are in plush, but I would really consider them dolls: Muppet High dolls, Santa Kermit doll. LIkewise these are called dolls, but I would consider them plush: Muppet dolls (Fisher-Price). Comments from the general population? -- Nate (talk) 20:34, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Well, a plush doll in normally all soft and squishy (except for maybe the eyes or other little parts), such as a stuffed animal. Whereas a doll isn't all soft and stuffed, such as Barbie (which is all plastic) or a Cabbage Patch kid (which has a big all-plastic head).
- And I would not consider Master Replicas' photo puppets plushes...however they are currently in there. -- Brad D. (talk) 21:35, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- I dunno. Right now, Plush also includes Muppet puppets (Ideal Toys) and I'd hesitate to call those dolls. And right now, this category itself is an odd mix of paper dolls, Madame Alexander dolls (which are dolls with Muppet-themed accessories or costumes, not dolls of Muppets), and so on, and I think lumping in Muppet stuffed animals would just make it more confusing and harder to browse through. And for consistency's sake, we'd have to mess with renaming/recategorizing Category:Sesame Street Plush, Category:Fraggle Rock Plush, and so on. Looking at the Fraggle category, most of those are labeled as "dolls" right now anyway, though. Should this discussion be moved to Current Events? Since unless we leave things as they are, then any change would basically involve overhauling *all* the related categories, tons of renaming, and so on, on a Wiki-wide scale. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 03:03, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

avance retard pocket watch
hello there!
i'm sibren kamstra from the Netherlands. Some time ago I got a golden pocket watch from my father. it used to be a heirloom from his grandfather. It is a golden pocketwatch with two clocks (a big one and a little one). The big clock is numbered with roman numerals. On the back of the pocket watch is shown a running horse in nature. This is all I know from this little heirloom. I was wondering if you know something more about this pocket watch. I'm very curious about the awnsers!
Re: avance retard pocket watch (By: sibren)
Hello sibren:
Welcome to the NAWCC European & Other Pocket Watches Message Board!
Advance and Retard are the two directions to move the pointer (the Pocket Watch Regulator) to make the watch run faster (Advance) or slower (Retard).
It would be helpful if you could post pictures of the movement (the "works") and markings stamped inside of the watch case (you can ignore any "hand-scratched" characters, they're watch repairers' marks), the clearer and sharper, the better. Clearness and sharpness is important as differences in make or grade can be subtle. Other pictures will help a little, but these are the most important. We may be able to identify it by the shape of the plates.
You can test your efforts to post pictures in the Just Practicing and Learning Forum. If you have a problem getting the picture(s) to load, check your file size and make sure that it is less than 500Kb. If it is, it should load to be posted. Too large of a file size is probably the most common problem in trying to upload a picture.
Its also helpful if you can post all the markings that are on the movement (the "works"), especially the movement serial number, in case they can't be seen in the picture(s).
Good luck,Kent

Re: avance retard pocket watch (By: sibren)
Hi Sibren,
advance/retard is no brand, but just French for fast/slow. It indicates where to move the regulator lever to speed up or slow down the rate of the watch. French inscriptions usually indicate that it is a Swiss watch, and most old Swiss watches were made in a kind of home industry. They have no brand, nothing is recorded, and numbers helped only to keep case parts together, because they were not interchangable.
So to tell anything, we would need photos from the watch and the movement (the mechanism inside).

Re: avance retard pocket watch (By: Aaron T Thoma)
These directions for posting images sound difficult, but it takes longer to read them than to actually do it.
To post one or more images, click on the "+ Reply to Thread" button which will cause a "Quick Reply" box to open. When that happens, scroll down to just below it and click on the "Go Advanced" button on the right-hand side.
When the "Reply to Thread" box opens, you can create your post that will acompany the images.
To actually add images or other files to your post, again scroll down, a little further this time, and click on the "Manage Attchments" button. This will open a new page, the "File Upload Manager."
Click on the "+ Add Files" button in the upper right-hand corner. This will open the "Upload Files from your Computer" box.
Within that box, click on the Select Files button, opening the "Select file(s) to upload by mb.nawcc.org" box. Navigate within that box to select the image file on your computer that you'd like to upload. Repeat as necessary to select additional files.
After the files are selected, click on the "Upload Files" button.
Then, once all of the thumbnail images appear in the "Attachments" box at the bottom of the page, and after your text is complete in the "Reply to Thread" box, click on either the "Preview Post" or "Submit Reply" button below the "Reply to Thread" box.
Good luck,Kent

TORONTO, March 16, 2012 /CNW/ – Scotiabank's 2011 Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report entitled 'Commitment in Action' is now available. Complementing the Bank's Annual Report, this high-level summary provides an overview of the Bank's CSR strategy, key performance indicators and examples of CSR activities.
"We have seen many exciting examples of corporate social responsibility in action across the Bank's multinational operations in 2011," said Kaz Flynn, Vice President of Corporate Social Responsibility for Scotiabank. "Whether it be meeting our customers' financial needs, providing an inclusive workplace where employees can succeed, adhering to strong governance practices, being environmentally responsible or reaching out in support of our local communities, corporate social responsibility is present in all of our day-to-day practices."
Several new programs, initiatives and successes are highlighted in the Bank's 2011 CSR Report which spans community, employees, customers, shareholders and the environment.
With a focus on community, Scotiabank ushered in 2011 with the launch of Scotiabank Bright Future, a global philanthropic program that brings together the Bank's charitable, social and community efforts and employee volunteer activities under one global banner. Last year, through Bright Future, the Bank provided approximately $50 million in donations, sponsorships and other forms of support while employees logged more than 360,000 volunteer hours in support of their communities.
Also as part of the Bright Future program, in 2011 Scotiabank introduced a global HIV-AIDS strategy to strengthen its work in combating the life-threatening disease and associated discrimination and stigma.
Building on the commitment to provide employees with a consistent and excellent work experience, last year Scotiabank partnered with CUSO International to offer employees the opportunity to develop and enhance their skills through the new Scotiabank/CUSO International Employee Fellowship Program. The partnership allows employees who meet eligibility criteria to take a six-month to one-year unpaid leave of absence to engage in international development work as volunteers. Summaries of the experiences of the first two employees who completed assignments are outlined in the CSR Report.
The Report also highlights customer case studies including Scotiabank's response to the earthquake in Haiti with the launch of a "mobile wallet" financial service called TchoTcho Mobile. Provided in association with Digicel and Yellow Pepper, the initiative has helped make banking easy, affordable and more accessible to all Haitians. Scotiabank and Digicel together won the 2011 Global Telecoms Business Innovation Award for Consumer Service Innovation for this affordable product for the people of Haiti.
In Canada, where Scotiabank offers Aboriginal Banking services across 22 branches, the Bank partnered with the Martin Aboriginal Education Initiative to launch a first-of-its-kind on-reserve youth entrepreneurship program at Oscar Lathlin Collegiate at Opaskwayak Cree Nation.
Environmentally, in 2011 the Bank expanded reporting data on paper and energy consumption and reported substantial progress in recycling initiatives, particularly internationally. As part of the Canadian environmental program, EcoLiving, the Bank introduced the Scotiabank EcoLiving Awards to celebrate and reward innovators in home energy efficiency.
The Scotiabank CSR Report, Commitment in Action, is available on Scotiabank's website, scotiabank.com/csr/reports.

On this date in 1970, the owners of the Kankakee Valley Broadcasting Corporation were receiving notice that the Federal Communications Commission had approved a new AM radio station in Knox. The announcement came from the office of Ray Paul of the firm of Prince and Paul in Washington D.C., the attorneys for the applicant.
The standard broadcast station would operate on 1520 kilohertz at a power of 250 watts during daytime hours. The station would go on to carry the call letters of WKVI. The AM application had been submitted in May 1968.
Forty-two years later, WKVI-AM plays a combination of modern and traditional country music.
On this date in 1976, former Knox Mayor Charles Moroni died.
In 1995 the Knox School Board sold the Foltz Building to Kevin Kroft for $18,000. Kroft told the news media that he planned to use the building for either real estate, a health and fitness center, or office space.

And that's important because devices consumers can play 4K footage on, like TVs, computers, tablets and smartphones, are also becoming more accessible and affordable (see The 3 Best Affordable UHD 4K TVs You Can Buy Right Now For Under $1,000). While a professional 4K setup could cost upwards of $10,000, beginners can now buy an awesome entry-level 4K shooter for around $700. And I can personally attest that yes, these cameras are actually really decent (see Lumix G7 below). I suppose the main crowd interested in these cameras will be people interested in shooting vlogs, webisodes and other web content. In other words, I could have also named this post The 3 Best New 4K Cameras For YouTubers!

Panasonic Lumix G7K
We've got a Panasonic Lumix G7K 4K camera here at the office and I LOVE IT. The video quality is absolutely insane for the price which starts at just $799.99! It even has some advantages over more expensive cameras (including the Canon XC10 below) such as an interchangeable lens system. Yes, it has a plastic body that isn't weather-sealed (unlike it's sturdier older brother the G4), but I find that I like the lightness and the camera actual feels quite high-quality to me. The touchscreen panel (which flexes out for easing viewing at multiple angles — including swinging all the way around to the front for selfie shots) works well and is well thought out. 4K time lapse shots are also possible with the Lumix G7K. I'll do a more full-featured review/test in the coming weeks. Needless to say: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by the DailyTekk team. One important note though: the Lumix G7's 4K footage is compatible with FCP X (Final Cut Pro X) and plays nicely without the need for external conversion software.
Canon XC10
There's an awful lot to like about the Canon XC10. At $2,499 it's the most expensive camera in this list but it's still many thousands of dollars cheaper than other professional 4K camcorders. The benefit (and perhaps achilles heel, we'll see) of the Canon XC10 is that it's an all-in-one system. ...

The Knight in Skyforge isn't your usual medieval kind of warrior – in this sci-fi fantasy MMORPG, this class has a few more tricks up its sleeve. It's not just the spear and the shield, this tank class has some interesting abilities to battle the enemies of Aelion, such as the Barrier, a defensive stance which reduces all incoming damage, or the Falcon Attack, with the Knight sending his Falcon to attack the target, increasing the damage inflicted by the Knight for a few seconds.
There are a few more abilities that you can check in this page, or you can simply watch the Knight's reveal trailer below to get the best idea of what he/she is capable of.

Li'l Author's Note: So…another little Dinobot story, one of the sort-of follow-ups to "Vigil," second of the five that I want to write and will write over the next 15 years or so. ;) (Hey, it's been like five years since I wrote the first one, sooooo...) Anyway, something like this one has been in the back of my mind for a long time now, so long that a piece of art actually preceded it, and that was a while ago. I just haven't written it until now. I really can't tell you why not, other than maybe I was too busy with "Redemption." :)
This one takes place at some indeterminate time in the future. I don't know when, so don't ask. Must be a while after "Vigil," though, because the Dinobots aren't using the "Me, Slag"-type verbal construction that, quite frankly, drives me crazy to write after a while so I avoid it if I can. Way I see it, they've grown out of baby talk, and it's only partly in order to save my own sanity. :) So, there it is. No slash to be found here, so it's safe for all audiences, unless usage of the word "hell" deeply offends you. :)
Swoop was momentarily taken aback by the vehemence – not to mention the volume – of Slag's reply to his simple, rhetorically polite, "How are you, Slag?" He halted abruptly in his tracks as he approached Slag's medbay berth and regarded his fellow Dinobot with a deeply disapproving look, folding his arms over his chest as he did so.
"Well, that's what you get for getting your legs blown off," he airily informed Slag, almost sing-songing the words at him. He knew that the tone of his voice would immensely irritate Slag, and he considered that a small payback for having to deal with his grumpy, loud, bored, and completely exasperating comrade for the last two days.
On schedule and as expected, Slag scowled fiercely at Swoop and folded his own arms across his own chest, unconsciously mimicking Swoop's posture.
"Onlyone," he pointed out waspishly, petulantly slamming his back against the inclined-to-seated-position berth.
"And a half," Swoop felt compelled to dryly add, playing with fire. Literally so, given that fire was Slag's very own specialty.
Again as expected, Slag's scowl didn't moderate in the slightest at Swoop's words. If anything, it deepened by an order of magnitude or so as he spat an eminently irritated "Shut up!" at Swoop. In response, Swoop attempted, very unsuccessfully, to hide an amused smirk.
"SHUT UP!" Slag insisted again, seeing Swoop's blatant amusement and wishing that he had something handy to throw at him.
"You shut up," Swoop mildly countered before adding, "It's a good thing for you that Prowl there is unconscious and can't be bothered by your racket. Besides, I didn't say anything."
Slag didn't even spare a glance at his roommate, who along with Slag had been the most badly damaged in the latest skirmish with the Decepticons. There had been some worry about losing their resident tactician for a few long and very tense hours, but he was recovering nicely now, two days later.
"Werethinking about saying something," Slag peevishly informed Swoop. He leveled an accusing index finger at Swoop and added a snarling, "Can read you like a book, you know."
Which was, Swoop reflected, unfortunately true; all of the Dinobots knew each other precisely that well. For that reason, Swoop knew that it was inevitable that an incapacitated Slag would make the lives of all of the medical staff a living hell for however long he was their unwilling guest. He didn't handle bored inactivity very well under the best of circumstances, and the lack of one and a half legs – courtesy of a close-range blast from Megatron's fusion cannon – pretty much negated the possibility of Slag getting up off of his medbay berth and wreaking any boredom-alleviating havoc any time soon. He had at least several more days of languishing in the medbay ahead of him, even if he eventually had to spend them literally chained to his berth. It certainly wouldn't be the first time the medical staff had had to resort to such measures where Slag was concerned. Swoop wondered how in the world they – Slag as well as the entire medical staff – would survive the experience with their sanity intact, so he was trying to preemptively mitigate the damage as well as he could. Hence, this very visit to give Slag someone to talk to for a little while, at least.
Sighing a resigned little sigh, Swoop finished his approach to Slag's berth and then unceremoniously plopped himself, all uninvited, into the space on it that would normally have been occupied by Slag's right leg, had he possessed a right leg at the moment. Slag leveled a glare at him for the imposition, momentarily but seriously considered shoving the much-smaller Dinobot off his berth as rudely as possible…and then simply sighed in defeat, shoulders slumping and all the fight suddenly leaving him. He was, suddenly, utterly exhausted, which was entirely understandable, given that he had been only slightly less badly-damaged in the skirmish than Prowl had been.
"How much longer?" he moaned pathetically, rhythmically banging the ceratopsian-head hood behind his head against his berth for lack of anything better to do. Swoop hitched a genuinely sympathetic smile at him.
"Three days," he said softly, giving Slag the bad news straight but also as gently as he could, hoping for the best. "Maybe four."
In response, Slag simply gaped at Swoop, slack-jawed and dumbfounded.
"Days?" he incredulously echoed long moments later. "DAYS?" he reiterated, quite a bit more loudly.
"It's complex fabrication," Swoop answered sagely, with a philosophical shrug. "Takes time."
"Tell Wheeljack to hurry up!" Slag demanded.
Protective as always of Wheeljack, Swoop glared at Slag and testily replied, "He's working as fast as he can, Slag. You know that."
Slag did know that, indeed. He was completely aware that if any of the Dinobots required something – anything! – then whatever he required immediately rocketed straight to the top of Wheeljack's miles-long priority list. And then the engineer worked tirelessly at procuring or fabricating whatever was needed as quickly as possible. Still…
"It's only a leg and a half!" Slag bellowed, heedless of Swoop's reassurances. "Can't take that long to—"
"It's not just your legs!" Swoop suddenly and rather loudly pointed out, his vehement and completely unexpected interruption startling Slag into abrupt silence. Swoop didn't yell, as a general rule, and he had just come very close to doing so.
Slag gave Swoop an odd, inquiring look, but Swoop was refusing to look at him. He went to nudge Swoop with a knee before he remembered that he didn't have any knees at the moment. So, he had to settle for an insistent poke with one finger to get Swoop's attention instead. In response, Swoop gave him an odd, sidelong, and likely guilty glance.
"We almost lost you. Healing from that takes time, too." Swoop said quietly before hesitantly adding, "And if we had lost you…it would have been my fault."
"Not your fault," Slag immediately assured him with, for Slag, startling gentleness, so startling that Swoop looked at him straight-on and askance for an extended moment before answering.
"I missed Megatron," Swoop pointed out matter-of-factly before looking away again. "Had him square, but then…missed."
Slag uttered a noncommittal grunt at that and then pointed out, "Grimlock told me that Skywarp had you square, too. Shot at you. Startled you."
"Shouldn't matter," Swoop mournfully replied, his shamefaced gaze fixed squarely on the wall somewhere to the right of Slag's head.
Slag snorted disbelievingly at that.
"Not your job to protect me, Swoop," he gruffly asserted.
"Is!" Swoop insisted, manically fixing a wide-eyed gaze on Slag's face again and simultaneously losing hard-won proper grammar in his distress. "My job air support. Me Swoop failed."
"Didn't!" Slag countered, equally insistently. "Me Slag not dead." Swoop couldn't argue with that, at least. "You Swoop distract Megatron," Slag pointed out, "so he not hit me square. Might be dead now, if not for you." He paused and somewhat reluctantly added, "Not the first time, either."
At that, Swoop hitched a hesitant but grateful half-smile at Slag. Slag might be a giant, belligerent pain in the aft sometimes – Most of the time, actually – but at least he didn't tend to hold grudges against anyone who wasn't a Decepticon, Optimus Prime or, occasionally, Grimlock.
Slag, meanwhile, leaned forward and laid a hesitant hand on one of Swoop's and then squeezed it lightly, offering an awkward and unaccustomed attempt at reassurance. Swoop jumped slightly at the unexpected contact and stared down at Slag's hand that was covering his for a moment. And then, almost nervously, he looked up into Slag's entirely earnest face.
"I'm not dead," Slag reiterated quietly once he was sure that Swoop was looking at him and that he would absorb what Slag was saying. "You not fail. OK?"
Swoop's little half-smile morphed into a shaky but full one.
"OK," he said quietly, although his voice was every bit as shaky as his smile. He wasn't entirely convinced that Slag's damage wasn't all his fault, but Slag's words were good enough for now, at least.
Thankful that the mushy stuff was over, Slag abruptly and deliberately resumed his customary grumpy mien.
"Still bored," he pointedly announced, abruptly changing the subject as he leaned back against his berth again.
Swoop sighed in mock irritation, although he, too, was grateful for the change of subject. He stood up then, looking down at Slag in amusement.
"What am I supposed to do about that?" he asked.
After a meaningful glance at the dead-to-the-world Prowl lying on the berth next to his, Slag slid his gaze over to re-fix it on Swoop's face and said with a sly smile, "Bring me my chess board."
Dumbfoundedly, Swoop blinked for a moment at Slag's currently-offline roommate.
"Prowl is unconscious, Slag," Swoop patiently and unnecessarily pointed out. "He can't play chess."
"Unconsciousnow, yes," Slag confirmed, with a patronizing sigh at Swoop's statement of the utterly obvious. "Will wake up soon. Will practice against computer while I wait."
"You really think you can beat him?" Swoop asked, grinning loopily at the image that bloomed in his head of Slag and Prowl faced off over a chessboard, competition hanging heavy and fierce between them.
Slag grinned back, and for once it wasn't a mean, sadistic grin.
"Oh hell, no!" he exclaimed with, shockingly, an enormous and highly amused belly laugh. "But will be good practice."
Swoop snickered.
"Maybe he'll be off his game," he offered hopefully, "since he's…you know…right now…" His voice trailed off and he waved vaguely at the deeply unconscious subject of their discussion.
"My thinking exactly," Slag answered with a smug but approving nod. "'He will win who knows when to fight,'" he added, quoting "The Art of War" sagely and with a mischievous little glint in his optic visor.
Swoop snorted at that.
"Thank you, Sun Tzu," he said, mock wearily. And then he left, turning smartly on his heel and heading for the door, all the while shaking his head in extreme amusement.
This…he thought. This will be interesting…
Sitting upright was, for Prowl, both excruciating and exhausting, but Slag's offer – indeed, his challenge – had proven irresistible, despite the discomfort. Prowl had found the challenge laughable at first, of course; he'd thought the notion of playing chess with Slag, of all people, ludicrous. Indeed, he had wondered if perhaps someone was trying to play some sort of elaborate joke on him, with Slag as a likely unwitting accomplice.
But now, near the end of their first game, Prowl found himself in the odd position of almost admiring Slag. Oh, the Dinobot was going to lose the match, naturally. Slag was left with only two courses of action open to him, and both of them were ultimately futile. If he chose Course One, he would be checkmated in four moves; if he chose Course Two, he'd last for two additional moves. Still, the Dinobot had put forth a remarkably capable effort, one full of surprising finesse. Where Prowl had thought that Slag would merely take the offensive, trying to use his customary brute force to win a game that was, instead, all about subtlety and effective defensive rather than offensive strategy, Slag had instead shown a depth of understanding of the game that Prowl wouldn't have thought possible an hour or two earlier. He had lasted far longer than Prowl would have thought possible, as well, and he found this…intriguing, to say the least.
Sitting back carefully in his chair, mindful of his still-torn-up back, Prowl watched Slag as the Dinobot contemplated the chessboard in front of him, his chin resting on clasped hands. No doubt, he was calculating possibilities and probabilities and extrapolating logical outcomes in his head. Prior to playing this game, Prowl would not have thought Slag capable of such things. Yet, he clearly was so capable, as he had repeatedly shown over the course of the match. He'd both defended himself and countered Prowl's gambits with an impressive degree of success. Prowl had never been in true jeopardy, of course; chess was elementary to him, albeit enjoyable as a relaxing pastime requiring not much thought. But it was clearly evident that Slag was putting a great deal of thought into every move he made, obviously calculating and recalculating probabilities and adjusting strategy on the fly as he went along. The degree of flexibility in the Dinobot's thinking – indeed, the fact that he was adept at thinking at all – was both intriguing and surprising to Prowl.
Upon reflection, though, Prowl supposed that perhaps it shouldn't have been quite so surprising. Over the years since their creation, the Dinobots had begun to show a breadth of talent that none of the Autobots – perhaps not even their creators – had thought possible. Swoop was a skilled and dependable medic now, earning his crosses – which Ratchet had proudly bestowed upon him – as a full-fledged medic in his own right a few months before. Sludge, once thought irretrievably moronic, had proven himself an accomplished and endlessly creative artist who had a following and a backlog of commissions that kept him both busy and happy. Grimlock was showing a gift for diplomacy and leadership; once he'd put aside his inherent stubbornness, he'd found that he could benefit from learning from others, his former nemesis Optimus Prime in particular. Snarl…Well, no one really knew about Snarl – not even the other Dinobots – but it would not surprise Prowl in the least if the taciturn Dinobot was harboring some skill of which his comrades, even, could not dream. Whether or not the antisocial and occasionally misanthropic Snarl would ever deign to show anyone any talent that he might possess was entirely another question, of course.
And now…Now here was Slag, losing to Prowl at chess but playing competently and with utterly sound strategy. Prowl was duly impressed, and he did not as a general rule impress easily. As he watched, Slag finally made up his mind about his next move, reaching decisively for his one remaining knight. In response, Prowl emitted a small, almost satisfied, sigh. Slag had, indeed, chosen the path that would allow him to survive for two extra moves. Without thinking, Prowl nodded in approval, leaned tiredly back against the back of his chair…and then nearly passed out from pain, barely suppressing a yelp and failing entirely to suppress a pained gasp. He'd temporarily forgotten the condition of his back, as busy as he had been evaluating and, indeed, appreciating Slag's tactical skills.
Slag, hearing Prowl's sharply indrawn breath, looked up at him, his face immediately registering concern. Almost instantly thereafter, his hand moved from his knight to his king, which he toppled in surrender with a casual flick of one finger. He sat back in his own chair, crossing his arms over his chest, and watched Prowl attempt to regain control of himself. It was a long process, and when it was over, Prowl, although exhausted to his core, took the time to look askance at Slag.
"What…what did you do that for?" he asked weakly, gesturing equally weakly at Slag's toppled black king.
Slag snorted, shrugged, and gruffly answered, "Would have beaten me in six moves, anyway. No point in finishing."
Prowl merely blinked at the Dinobot, no longer surprised that Slag had accurately surmised his tactical situation and had already precisely calculated the inevitable end result.
"And you don't look too good, either," Slag announced after scrutinizing his opponent with his head tilted appraisingly to one side. "Should go back to bed before Swoop kills you."
Prowl opened his mouth to protest, a flood of weak arguments contradicting Slag's assessment rushing to the forefront of his thoughts before he realized that Slag was probably right. He was exhausted, and his entire body was singing with pain, his limbs even beginning to shake with the effort of continuing to sit upright. Surrendering to the inevitable just as Slag had on the chessboard, Prowl rose very unsteadily to his feet, leaning heavily on the table in front of him for support for a long moment before he determinedly straightened to his full height and looked down at Slag.
"You played well, Slag," he said quietly but sincerely. "I confess that I am…surprised."
One corner of Slag's mouth lifted in a pleased half-smile.
"Thank you," he said quietly, knowing that Prowl did not offer compliments lightly or, indeed, very often at all. "Have been practicing."
"I can tell," Prowl answered as he turned, staggered a bit, but then determinedly began putting one foot in front of the other, making slow progress toward his berth.
Slag watched Prowl warily and almost offered assistance before remembering that he still lacked legs. Swoop and a burly assistant had had to carry him to the table for the chess match to begin with, and they would need to be summoned to help him back to his berth, as well. So, Prowl was on his own. He made it, though, settling himself with a relieved sigh on it. Laying curled on his side, a position facilitated by the fact that he currently lacked one door wing, he regarded Slag with extreme exhaustion.
"If you like…" he offered hesitantly, his voice heavy with impending unconsciousness, "I can help you to refine some of your strategies." And then, before Slag could answer him, Prowl went abruptly offline with either recharge or unconsciousness. Regardless, Slag answered him, though.
"I would like that very much," he said quietly, and then he reached for the call button lying next to the chess board. He found that exhaustion was getting the better of him, as well, and it was suddenly all he could do to remain awake for the few minutes it took for Swoop and his assistant to arrive.
As they made their laborious way toward Slag's berth, Swoop and his assistant carrying Slag between them, Swoop asked of Slag in a conspiratorial half-whisper, "Well?"
Slag snorted.
"I lost, of course," he muttered.
Swoop sighed.
"Of course," he said, somewhat disappointedly. He had expected Slag to lose every bit as much as Slag himself had expected to lose, certainly, but there had still been a part of him that had hoped that Slag would somehow manage to win the match. Just because. So, as he and his assistant settled Slag on his berth, Swoop opened his mouth to offer his condolences. But Slag spoke over him, glancing over at Prowl and then looking back earnestly at Swoop.
"But I think I won, too," he said, with a small, proud-of-himself smile on his face. And with that cryptic little comment, he, too, allowed his exhaustion to overtake him, and his body completely relaxed against the berth as he settled into recharge. He was still wearing that proud little smile.
Smiling affectionately himself, Swoop watched his comrade sleep for a moment, idly watching the wall-mounted monitors that had automatically sprung to life the moment Slag was settled onto his berth. Satisfied that everything was normal there, he turned away with the intention of heading toward the door to attend to his other duties. On his way, though, he found his attention drawn for some reason to the table where the chessboard lay, noting the almost-equal piles of defeated pieces off to each side of the board as well as the toppled black king. For some reason, he felt compelled to approach the table and pick up the toppled piece. As he repeatedly turned it over in his fingers, studying it, Swoop reflected that, just perhaps, Slag getting his legs blown off had somehow managed to turn out to be a good thing. He found his lingering sense of guilt over the incident easing somewhat at the thought, and he found himself slowly releasing a tensely-held breath that he had probably been holding since the moment Megatron had nearly managed to kill Slag. Smiling to himself, Swoop nodded at no one and nothing, returned the chess piece to its former toppled position on the board, and then headed for the door, leaving his two sleeping patients to their well-deserved rest.

Users of Centreon Business Intelligence (BI) 2.2 will find 9 new report templates offering pertinent insights from your monitoring data, notably on:
- IT energy consumption
- Virtualization
- Availability of IT service activity
Plus … ETL optimization and interface enhancements with handy tutorials.
IT Energy Consumption
The reporting capacity of version 2.2 adds a new interesting template that helps provide key information about your electrical inverters and save operational costs. Easily generate key indicators aggregated from your monitored data to know how your energy consumption is doing by the hour, the day or month.
Another new reporting capacity is particularly useful for monitoring virtualization applications based on the Virt-VMWare2-ESX plugin pack and Centreon-VMWare connector 2.x.
The report allows you to track the main indicators summarized by the plugin pack, such as:
- Datastores storage
- Datastores IOPS
- Number of operating and dormant VMs
- Memory and CPU consumption of ESX
First page : datastore 's KPIs
Seconde page: ESX KPI's
Enterprise Application Availability
Users of Centreon BAM will appreciate the reporting templates that list events and applications availability from the perspective of enterprise functionality, for instance accounting, procurement, CRM or ERP.
Sample reporting of the list of events for a single application.
Sample reporting of application availability.
Inventory and detailed availability and performance calendar reports
An inventory of the hosts can also be derived to provide a complete view of the related hosts, its groups, categories and templates. The same goes for services. Main configuration parameters are also displayed in these inventory report templates.
Here is an exemple of the Host-template reports
Find all details about host & services inventory reports on the documentation.
Centreon BI 2.2 has also added diagnostic reports whereby timeframes by availability of hosts and services can be easily viewed via a cross-table .
In the same way, the diagnostic report for performance by timeframe below allows visualizing the average and maximum value reached e.g. maximum bandwidth of a network link.
New Report Generation and user interface features
Examples of some new features for simpler report generation and user-friendly interface include:
- A new button to start all the scheduled reports (monthly, weekly, daily) on demand
- Dropbox publication : the reports are directly sent to the folder "Centreon BI" in Dropbox, allowing users to automatically retrieve the reports on their PC without going through their mailbox, the Centreon interface or a shared network.
- Continued compatibility with Microsoft Office for possible export in xlsx, pptx, docx.
- By default, "NoCategory" is associated to all the non-categorized hosts, making it easy to use Centreon BI from the very first instance. This is especially so when Centreon objects (groups and categories) have yet to be configured.
- A new tab in the general options to view available dimensions in the datawarehouse for a given user
Optimization and Enhancement of ETL
The time needed to compute availability and events have been significantly reduced and optimized.
It is now possible to link the host categories to the host templates, whereby it was only possible to create direct links between equipment and host categories before. This makes it easy to standardize the configuration of reporting dimensions.
Handy Tutorials
Administrators and users of version 2.2 now have a series of tutorials that show how best to check the health of your Centreon BI. You will also be guided on using the built-in scheduler to create your first report, followed by a step-by-step process of using the report-generating tool via your navigator.

owl:sameAs and Linked Data: An Empirical Study
Ding, Li and Shinavier, Joshua and Finin, Tim and McGuinness, Deborah L. (2010) owl:sameAs and Linked Data: An Empirical Study. In: Proceedings of the WebSci10: Extending the Frontiers of Society On-Line, April 26-27th, 2010, Raleigh, NC: US.
Linked Data is a steadily growing presence on the Web. In Linked Data, the description of resources can be obtained incrementally by dereferencing the URIs of resources via the HTTP protocol. The use of owl:sameAs further enriches the Linked Data space by declaratively supporting distributed semantic data integration at the instance level. When consuming Linked Data, users should be careful when handling owl:sameAs: in that URIs linked by owl:sameAs may not be appropriate for simple aggregation, and that recursively exploring owl:sameAs may lead to considerable network overhead. In this work, we discuss and conduct an empirical pilot study on the usage of owl:sameAs in the Linked Data community. The results include initial quantitative measures of the usage of owl:sameAs. Based on observations of these results, we further discuss several strategies for dealing with owl:sameAs in Linked Data applications.

hotel isabella (was moved from hotel bolivar)
We were told upon arrival at hotel bolivar that due to a flood earlier that day we would be moved to a sister hotel, the princess isabella.
The man at front desk at the Bolivar was extremely unsympathetic and was rather brusque which was really upsetting as this trip had been planned for months and was a surprise 50th for my husband. HOWEVER, the staff at the isabella could not have been more different - they were fantastic. The hotel, although a little further out of Rome centre than we wanted was lovely, the rooms exceptionally clean and immaculate. (Please note my ratings are on the isabella NOT the Bolivar). We were easily able to walk to the Trevi, Pantheon and Colessem, and getting to the Vatican was easy on the metro.
All in all I would highly recommend the hotel princess isabella and would love to go back there, the hotel was lovely and the staff absolutely brilliant.

Charming hotel
Having traveled a lot especially in Italy, I was thrilled to find this hotel.
The room was beautiful and big. The bathroom was well appointed and had the most water pressure of any hotel I've stayed in.
Angelo and Peter were wonderful and gave us terrific recommendations for dinner. They also arranged for a car to take us to the airport early on our departure day.
The hotel is very close to Piazza Venezia yet it was still quiet. I will definitely be back!

Charming, authentic and incredibly central
We were pleasantly surprised by the quaint charm and easiness of the whole experience of staying here.
We paid the extra €20 for a park and our car was directly below our window. The spare bed for our 11 year old was very comfortable as was our room. Quietly opulent, the room and bathroom were pristine and the linen was of high quality. The breakfast was tasty and plentiful with a variety of English and European choices including cooked eggs, bacon and sausages. The concierge was extremely helpful with local information regarding restaurants and sightseeing and have printed maps of the highlights that they will talk you through. With all this to offer, for us the highlight of this hotel is that it is in the heart of Rome within easy walking distance to everywhere. We will be back. Tony & Louise Benson, Manchester, UK

East Fremantle premiership player William Krakouer, the third oldest brother from Mt Barker's famous football family, has died at 47.
Krakouer passed away suddenly after collapsing last Thursday.
He is the younger brother of Jim and Phil Krakouer, who played a combined 275 matches for North Melbourne and lit up the VFL during the 1980s with their electric skills and speed.
William, who was known as Billy, started his WAFL career at Claremont and played 16 games for the Tigers before moving to East Fremantle midway through the 1989 season.
He played 65 matches for the Sharks from 1989-93 and was part of their 1992 premiership side.
Krakouer booted East Fremantle's first two goals in the grand final victory over derby rivals South Fremantle, just a fortnight after being disciplined for turning up late to training.
The small forward/rover switched to South Fremantle for the 1994 season, citing a desire to play alongside younger brother Andrew.
Seventeen matches at the Bulldogs rounded out his 98-game WAFL career.
East Fremantle coach and former teammate Steve Malaxos said Krakouer was a similar player in style to brother Phil.
"He was very dangerous with the ball in the forward line," Malaxos said.
"He was probably not quite at the same elite level with his skills and decision-making as Phil, but he was a pretty good WAFL player when the competition was a little bit stronger back in those days."

The former coach reveals in his memoirs that he saw humble youngsters happy to be a part of the team turn into stars with loads of attitude during his stint with the Indians.
''When a player first came into the team you'd tell him that his job was to look after the drinks...nothing would be too much trouble because they were thrilled to be playing for India. The first sign that there was too much stardust in the air was when you had to ask them twice,'' Wright revealed in his book 'Indian Summers'.
Recalling the phase just after India's fine performance in the 2003 World Cup, where they reached the finals, the former coach said his calls of keeping cricket over everything else went without response from some players.
''At the post-World Cup camp, I told a number of players that they weren't putting cricket first. Their responses ranged from agreement to 'I'm tired of listening to this','' Wright wrote in his book 'Indian Summers'.
The former coach revealed that players entered a ''comfort zone'' after a reasonably successful World Cup campaign and a Test and ODI triumph over Pakistan the next year, and some of them took their places for granted.
''The players returned home to find themselves in huge demand both socially and commercially...on a scale some of them couldn't have imagined. Next time I saw them at the pre-season camp, some were distinctly more casual and self-confident,'' the former coach wrote.
Wright said the biggest challenge for him was to keep the players grounded as they had ''loosened'' as a group and had become ''undisciplined'' after the victory in Pakistan.
''...good attitudes and habits that had helped us achieve success were being paid lip-service rather then being put into practice. The 2004 hangover didn't lift until we had lost at home to Australia,'' he elaborated.
These were times, said Wright that he wished to be a selector and drop the complacent lot. However, not being one meant that he had to be content with just warning the overnight stars and expect them to follow the advice. ''At those times, I really wished I was a selector, as opposed to an adviser to the selection panel. All it would have taken to get the players' attention was to drop a couple of them; the bigger the better.
''After some indifferent displays at the 2004 Asia Cup, I told one player that if I had been a selector, I would have dropped him...But I wasn't a selector and he wasn't dropped.'' The Kiwi said only the ''real professionals'' like Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid could keep themselves unaffected by the commercialism that surrounded the team. He said the youngsters tended to lose focus on their game after a few successes as they fat endorsements even after ordinary performances.
Wright felt that the financial windfall sometimes did more damage than any good to the young players in the team.
''A handful of promising performances triggers a tidal wave of adulation and some fat endorsement deals. This is where overnight success can be a trap for young players. Indian cricket's double-edged sword is that success can be your enemy,'' Wright explained.
The former Kiwi captain said even he felt trapped in the ''bubble'' in which cricket was put behind ''commercial imperatives'' and ''board politics''.
''Sometimes I felt trapped in the bubble...where media and public perception, public relations, commercial imperatives and board politics seemed to matter more than actual performance...the bottom line isn't necessarily dependent on the team's performance and that can breed complacency and scramble priorities,'' the former coach said.

What is the maximum tyre pressure for a vehicle carrying a heavy load?
Asked on 12/12/2009 by Guest 728
You still have 5000 characters Answer this question
Latest answer
You have 2 different pressure indicators in the owners handbook: if your vehicle is loaded use the pressure indicator marked "vehicle fully laden or on motorway" which is higher than the normal tyre pressure.

How to recognize that the Illuminati are posing as "Christian" TV evangelists
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
the rallies of the residents and construction workers who refused to build a mosque "on the blood of the killed Americans" have subsided. On January 14, 2011 Faisal Abdul Rauf left his senior management position of the community of the future mosque (called Park51), and this post was taken by Imam Abdullah Ahmad. This appointment had the effect of this explosion.
Ahmadi began studying Islam at the Al-Taqwa in Brooklyn, whose imam was Siraj Wahaj. Back in the early 1990's Siraj has publicly stated that if Muslims were smarter politically, they could have taken control of the United States and replaced its Constitution with the caliphate. He stated that eventually one way or another the so-called democracy would collapse and the only thing that would remain would be Islam.
A New York attorney directly accused Siraj Waha in close ties with the blind sheik Abdel Rahman Oman, who headed a group of Islamists who in 1993 detonated a truck packed with explosives in the underground garage of the World Trade Center killing six and injuring hundreds of people. Now the disciple of this man was elected as the new imam of the mosque to be built on the ruins of the World Trade Center.
In November of 2010, the future Imam of Mosque Ground Zero gave a public lecture before the New York Muslims, video and transcript of which appeared on the site WorldNetDaily on January 23, 2011. In his lecture, Ahmadi explained that those who have forsaken the faith of the Prophet must be thrown into dungeons: "Those who preach their apostasy, promote their views - those should be put in jail." Leading the community of the mosque Ground Zero, Ahmad in his sermon at the end of January of 2011 did not fail to note that Islam was superior to any other religion, and Muhammad was above "all the prophets before him, from Adam to Noah, to Abraham and Moses and Jesus, and all between them."
How does this correspond with the words of Faisal Abdul Rauf: "Islamic values in their purest form - compassion, generosity and respect for all"?

1st answer: i have found that visiting a town that sells a particular item like a ore that another general needs, they will obtain it. by this i mean if one of your generals pops up and asks for an item and if we have time to obtain some, say sure and then start visiting towns til that general asks if we have time to engage in some fights outside of town. thats what i do and they seem to stop asking after that. you do not have to purchase these items yourself, just wisit the town/area its available in.
2nd answer: It's true that they buy components in the towns when they have enough money. However, the other thing you pointed out about the "let's go fighting" dialogue is completely unrelated - it just means they recently had a weapon upgrade (which happens if they have enough components and you visit the town). The "i need this component" dialogue is just a reminder for you, it has no actual impact if you say yes or no to them as far as I can tell (I always say yes anyway). Also to answer the original question: Just harvest the items they need, they will take them automatically even though there is no indicator popping up like on normal monster loot. The same holds true for components that are only obtainable via monster split, again no pop up but they will take it. Just look in their inventory and check if the item count still increases after harvesting, if it doesn't they have enough of it. In most cases 4-8 components will do, there are only rare cases where you need 10-14. Playing PC version, just to avoid misunderstandings because they differ somewhat.

Prakash Karmakar
Born:20th oct.1933
Govt. college of Art & craft, Kolkata
Prakash Karmarkar came from an artistic family; his father was a renowned artist of his time.
Unfortunately, all of his father's paintings were destroyed in the Hindu Muslim riots in the 1940s, which also ruined his family.
By 1949, both his parents had passed away, forcing him to abandon his studies at the Government College of Arts and Crafts, Kolkata.
He joined the army for two years and then quit to work as a graphic design manager for a medical firm in Kolkata.
Virtually penniless and desperate for a break, in 1956, he held a street exhibition, the first in the city, hanging his works along a corner.
Selected Exhibitions:
2008-'Hues of Bengal',Janues Art Gallery
2008-'Art from Bengal',Art Elements Gallery,New Delhi
2008-The Artecurate , Mumbai Art Festival.
2007-'Signatures Images',Gallery Kolkata,Kolkata
2007-Uninterrupted Journeys, Nitanjali Art Gallery,New Delhi
2007-Tales of Textures, Art Elements Gallery,New Delhi
2006-Drawing show an act of Art II,Priyasri Art Gallery,Mumbai
2006-'Frames & Beyond',Neheru Center,Mumbai
1968-65-67-National Art Exhibition, at Lalit Kala Academy, New Delhi
2000-He was a recipient of Abinendra Puraskar Award
1976- Awards from Biria Academy of Art and Culture, Kolkata
1970- Rabindra Bharati University, Kolkata.
1969-70 Fellowship for Study in France.
Large fish-shaped eyes are assets of Prakash Karmakar females by which he is often recalled. More so because his female are rendered askew with voluptuous curves, drunken stare and sometimes wantonly explicit erotic gestures. At one time, quite early in his life his demonic damsels, femmes fatales, or nudes with fleshy shapes of sensual bulge or dismembered limbs or focused genitalia became his signature images. His landscapes too with their piquant painterly refashioning of natural forms and by sheer force of their varied recurrence are currently a fresh subject-index of his style.

This piece is part of a series expressing what I think social responsibility means. This set of images is representing the uniqueness of each woman, while there is a degree of uniformity...with every person being female. I believe it is the responsibility of women to teach and nurture other women and see the responsibility as an honor. And yet, while we are individuals, we all the bear the pain and hormonal changes of "aunt flow", pregnancy, the ever evolving definition of what it means to be a woman, the struggle and reward of being mothers and the job of addressing injustice to the women of the world.
"Take a dive into my curious mind." Angelina is a wife, mother of two and military veteran who currently resides in Colorado. She credits her military experience for her love of cultural diversity and inclination to explore, which is reflected in her uncommon mixed media art. Her portfolio speaks for itself with dynamic digitals, exploratory acrylics, and nature photography that celebrate her inner spirit. Artful vision has always been a significant part of Angelina's life, but serious focus on her art began in 2008 when she started marketing and exhibiting publicly. She has quickly gained the respect of peers, by established relationships with publishers, authors and print media, designers, as well as retail, and decor venues. To see...
