Hunting Pals
Now that I see her on my computer screen, I realize that Katie isn't quite the right color - her fur was more like a burnished penny. I'll have to correct that, but later. It's been a loooong day, and like the winter gear filled dryer that's run nonstop for hours, I'm tired and need a break.

Mr. Congeniality, Basil
True confessions: today's painting was really done yesterday. Between tomorrow's forecasted 10" of snow and my complete lack of Christmas preparedness (meaning I'd done zero shopping), I realized I had a 24 hour timeframe to complete all my Christmas lists - and that was today. So I worked into the wee hours last night/this morning, hit the road first thing, and got it all done just in time to greet my oldest son as he got off the schoolbus.

I'm reading Harley Brown's "Eternal Truths for Every Artist." It's a book that nearly every successful artist I know speaks highly of, but it's also a title that's very difficult to find, and therefore pricey. I snagged one (bargain priced, no less!!) on-line as an early Christmas gift to myself, and have been curling up with it each night for an hour or so. It is sheer brilliance!

"Pure Joy," Ozzie, a Yorkie mix
There's been so much gloom and doom in the news lately, especially around Detroit. In 2009 I will focus on beauty and laughter more often. Not that I plan to turn my back on the hardship - I simply want to set time aside daily where I am consciously grateful for the wonderful things in my life. I want to wrap my joy in a smile or hug, and pass it on - happiness is something that has gone missing in many lives lately. And we all deserve at least a glimmer of it each day, regardless of our circumstances.
Here's a bit of a serendipitous poem that a friend shared this morning. From Solitude, by Ella Wheeler Wilcox -

Roxy, Red Merle
Cattle dogs are an acquired taste, but, like steamed clams, they are delightfully slippery and delicious, with larger than life personalities. Being owned by one myself, I have a small bit of experience in that area (and I love steamers).

Three Goldens
My client gets her choice of the above paintings. After she takes pick of the litter, the remaining ones are up for grabs. Please send me an email if you are interested in any of these portraits - a paypal payment and priority shipping should get the painting(s) in your hands by the holiday.
Thanks, as always, for sharing my artwork with your friends and family.

I Love Lucy
This piece has been on my easel for three days. More than twice the time of the typical Dog-a-Day painting. I justified that because of the double portrait bit, but really I think I spent a lot more time than usual relishing in the pugs' folds. It was worth it, though.
And it'll be even better when this one gets unwrapped. This painting is going to someone special, someone I've been looking forward to painting for for a long time, someone especially appreciative of all things pug. It's been a long time coming, but Happy (belated) Birthday & Merry Christmas, Claire!!

Happy Holidays
Tuesday, December 09, 2008
This painting seems to be all about contrast - anchored with a few basic shapes and carefully chosen edges around her face. As straightforward as it might look, it is not a painting I could have pulled off a few months ago. It's harder (at least for me) to say more with less. But it's also so much more satisfying!
Thanks, as always, for looking at and sharing these paintings with your friends and family.
See you tomorrow!

Lopsided Grirn (Boston Terrier)
I cannot always share what I paint these days because many are holiday gifts. Today I had to paint an extra face because the first two were surprises for Dog-a-Day readers.

Gypsy Vanner Mare, part II
In the version I posted earlier this week, I had beautiful color happening amidst drawing errors. Correcting these were complicated by porr photo references and my lack of intimate equine anatomical knowledge. I allowed the piece to simmer until today, when I felt a little bit of confidance going back into it. Nevertheless, I still ended up painting the whole thing out and starting over.

"Droopy," the 8th Dwarf
After painting Droopy, I got the idea to paint the dwarfs from Snow White. Don't ask me how I made that connection - I'm not certain myself. But can't you see it? A bulldog as Grumpy, a golden retriever as Happy, a sheepdog as Sneezy, a mastiff as Sleepy - ahh, this could be really fun. Now all I have to do is carve out the time to paint them!!

Painting a Dog - err, Horse - a Day
The year is winding down, and that means I have several juried competition deadlines sneaking up. I've had this same mare on my studio wall for several years now - a huge stretched canvas that is at least 40" high - a canvas that I didn't take much further than an initial block in. I've loved the backlighting that tickles her fetlocks, and thought I'd give it a try on a smaller scale, conquer the fear of messing up, and see if I can't get a solid little painting for one of the exhibitions in my radar.
I started with toning the panel a pepto bismol pink - it's easier (and way more fun) to paint on a colored ground than a white one. I then began massing in the areas of light and dark. I'll continue to refine the shapes and get her drawn in properly as I lay additional colors down. In these earlier stages I'm not so worried about the edges or anatomy, but more so in balancing the values and creating a dynamic composition. Some people I know would call this stage "the uglies" - but trust me, she'll pull out of them! Just wait and see.
It was a busy weekend around these parts, readying the Painting a Dog a Day - the First Year books to ship out today. But ready them we did, and they have officially been mailed. Everything went out via US Priority Mail today, and with the exception of the international orders, all should be in new homes by Wednesday or Thursday.
I have a book signing at Margot's Gallery on Sunday (in Oxford, Michigan - call for directions - 248-628-5398), and will continue filling orders next week. Softcovers are $39.95, hardbound copies are $54.95. Shipping and handling is now $9.99 (the books, when sealed in padded envelopes, do not fit inside the flat rate priority pouches - guess I should have checked that out first, huh?). Please send your orders to email@example.com - we are running out of time to get these into your hands by the holiday.
Thanks, as always for looking at and sharing my paintings with your friends and family.
I'll see you tomorrow, Kim

Mandalyn again
Remember Mandalyn (from November 10th - http://tinyurl.com/56s37a)? Here's another painting of her. She is continuing to recover from her wounds, and seems to understand that she must leave them alone. She has won the hearts of the Best Friends staff, and I am certain that once her health issues are resolved, this little one will quickly find a forever home. You can follow Mandalyn's progress on the Best Friends website (listed above), in the Guardian Angel section.
This painting is similar in composition to "Fierce Hunter" (from November 20th - http://tinyurl.com/62rc39 ), but looks entirely different. A combination of softer colors and a variety of edgework keep Mandalyn's portrait from being a simple exercise in shape and color, like "Fierce Hunter."
I wish all my readers a wonderful Thanksgiving (even those outside the US) - I hope you are able to share Thursday with special friends and family, and can spend the day doing things you love.
I'm off to spend the day in the kitchen - something I love almost as much as painting. Thank you, as always, for reading the blog and following along with the stories.
Happy Thanksgiving! Kim

One Tail at a Time Rescue
A portion of the sale of this painting will go to One Tail at a Time in Ohio. Within the last month, a friend had a very positive experience adopting a dear mastiff from their rescue. I had an opportunity to talk to the director of One Tail at a Time, and her energy and dedication was inspiring. I wanted to help support them and other dogs like Henry (aka Memphis) with a painting.
Right now, One Tail at a Time has a litter of special needs puppies, and funds from the sale of this painting will be earmarked for their vet bills. You can read more about the rescue and pups at http://t.ymlp67.com/wjaiaujyafaujwhavausmm/click.php . If the above painting doesn't appeal to you, consider making a donation to One Tail at a Time and helping these pups (and the other dogs in their care) find wonderful homes.
In other news, the books arrived yesterday! My studio is full of stacked boxes, ready to be inscribed, wrapped, and sent on their way next week. I am on track to ship out Painting a Dog a Day - the First Year pre-orders on Monday, December 1st.
If you are interested in purchasing a copy of the book, please send me an email. Softcovers are $39.95 and hardcovers $54.95, plus shipping and handling. Inquiries to email@example.com .
I've got one more special painting for you before the holiday. Feel free to share this one with your friends and family -
Saturday, November 22, 2008
This painting, while small in size, carries the longest title of any Dog-a-Day piece to date. That's really her name. But you can call her "Cassie" for short.
I especially love how the painting fades "into" her face - it reminds me of the way a form begins to take shape from a lump of clay. This part was entirely accidental - but a wonderful accident (that's my point of view, at least!).
I've been debating the merits of taking some time off next week. I'd love to linger in the grocery (well, honestly, it'll be so packed with holiday shoppers that rushing through won't be possible), go entirely overboard with food prep (I have occasionally been accused of overkill on occasion), hang out at my library for a bit (get through some of those Battle of the Books reads!), catch a matinee of Twilight (that is if I don't sneak away to see it this weekend), finish knitting a Christmas gift (or two), and maybe even go shoe shopping (if I call it that, instead of the reality which is "momma needs new winter boots shopping," it sounds a little more fun). The kids only have two days of school, and I'm thinking I'll slack off a little, too.

Dog AND Cat - Chloe and Miah
I've been in a Shih-tzu groove lately - once I realized that, I had to mix it up with an old standby - the black cat.
I rustled through old photos of Miah, and came up with one where she was hunting Turtle's tail. You know the game - Cat A is quietly lying there, minding her own business, totally oblivious to Cat B, who is stalking and waiting for the right moment to pounce. That was my two. Hard to believe it'll be a year Saturday since Turtle died, and 6 months gone by since Miah. Sigh.
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at and sharing these paintings with your friends and family.
See you tomorrow,

Emma & Milo, Shih Tzu Schmit Tzu
These two remind me of Muppets. Such lively little faces, with fur and hair everywhere. And a total contrast to today's studio background soundtrack - I started out with The Nutcracker (it WAS snowing this morning), but it wasn't edgy enough, and I shifted gears to Amy Winehouse. What a fun day in the studio!!
You might have noticed the subtle new look to the daily emails. That's because I've changed delivery services. I learned that Google Newsgroups, my old provider, was not reliable. Over the last week, when investigating why some Dog-a-Day subscribers were not receiving their daily painting, I discovered that some email servers block Google generated emails, especially those with attachments or images, as part of their spam reduction efforts. I couldn't have readers missing out on the dailies, so migrated the Google Newsgroup to a new service.
As part of this change, I am now able to offer subscription sign-up to both the Dog-a-Days and my seasonal studio newsletter on the Painting a Dog a Day blog. Check it out at www.paintingadogaday.blogspot.com (or if you are reading this on the blog, scroll your eyes over to the right and check out the sidebar).
Also, you can always let me know if you are not receiving your daily postings (because I AM painting every day, and often weekends!!) or if you are getting multiples.
Thank you to those who participated in the ebay auction which ended last night. I'm considering listing additional paintings in the coming weeks - let me know if you are interested in seeing more auctions, and if so, what you would like to see, and I'll put something together.
And thanks also to all my new collectors - the Dog-a-Days are getting snapped up as quickly as I can paint them!
I appreciate your time, as always. Thanks so much for being part of the Dog-a-Day journey.
See you tomorrow,

Joe, Australian Shepherd
This piece looks so blah on the computer. In real life, Joe is all aglow with light, you can see the waves of his fur, and practically hear him panting.

Susie Sheltie
Susie is the other "make-up" portrait that goes along with Bubbles (from Sat). Susie made the cut because of the tremendous effort her current family put forth to rescue her. Susie was starving, matted and terrified, bandoned in an industrial area near an international airport. It took a crew of volunteers several hours in inclement weather to crate Susie, after which she was taken immediately under the wing of one family and whisked into veterinarian care.
Never daunted, the man who instigated all this (ironically, Susie bit him during the dramatic rescue) brought her without hesitation into his home and family, where she is now a beautiful and devoted companion. After Susie joined their family, they also became involved in Sheltie rescue, where they now assist with transports, opened their hearts and home to animals needing foster care, and help their group out with in-home visits.
I love hearing stories like this. Stories where incidents have spurred people into action, allowing them to reach out and make a difference. There are so many inspiring stories out there, and I especially love being able to bring them to the Painting a Dog a Day project. Thank you to Susie and her family for sharing their tale!
Just a reminder, I have an original painting on canvas that is listed on ebay right now. Ebay's also running a coupon for 10% off a purchase, up to $100 off (enter code CHOLIDAYNOV2008 at checkout). ( The auction ends tomorrow evening. This is my Dog-a-Day piece from October 10th - it's now available for purchase. "Fifty-Two Vignettes" is a painting on canvas inspired by 52 dog-a-day portraits - you can see it at http://tinyurl.com/6dxn9x. The current price is a steal for one of my gallery stretched canvas originals (this is NOT a reproduction!).
Consider the opportunity for this sort of a deal my holiday gift to you - take a peek (item number 330285879451, seller id "turtledovedesigns", the tinyurl link above will take you right to the ebay listing), place a bid, and hold your breath!!
Thanks, as always, for looking.

Lona Kitty
I love the color in Lona's portrait, and how the pink of her body bleeds into the orange background, which is also a mirror of the shadows in her eyes.
I've placed a tag on my blog that will link you directly to blurb.com, where you can preview the first 15 pages of my book Painting a Dog a Day - the First Year. You may also place an order through this site. If you would like an inscribed copy of the book, however, your order must come through me. Send an email to email@example.com if you are interested. Softcovers are $39.95 and hardcovers with a dustjackets are $54.95; shipping and handling will be an additional $4.95.
Thanks, as always, for looking.

Bubbles the Pug
A few weeks back I had two portraits cancel with short notice. I asked Dog-a-Day readers to submit their stories, and from the group I chose a couple faces to paint. It was a tough choice, but Little Miss Bubbles was one of them.
Can you see why? That face!! I just love it.
And her story, too, of course. When she came into the rescue group, young Bubbles had a mysteriously broken hip. She had it corrected surgically, worked her little curly tail off in rehab, and was fostered for a year until she found her now forever home. Happy endings. That's what I love.
Thanks, as always, for looking.

Lucy and Desi
Another busy day today. Finalized details on the first press run of Painting a Dog a Day - The First Year, proofed printed ephemera that one of my paintings is in, volunteered at my children's elementary school, and got these two paintings completed. I'm ready to call it a day!
Not sure if I'll get to paint tomorrow - the kids are off school, and we all have dental appointments. Later in the day I have an interview with a local newspaper, and my oldest son has an away soccer game in the evening. If I don't get in the studio tomorrow, I will be showing up over the weekend, as there's still a few faces I would like to paint this week and some other details to tie up.
I've heard rumors that the Google servers haven't been reliably delivering the dog-a-day emails. If you find yourself without your dog-a-day daily fix, you can always check out the blog to see what's up: http://www.paintingadogaday.blogspot.com/.
Thanks, as always, for looking.

Harley, a long haired chihuahua
I tried something interesting with these two. The long and skinny canvas I toned a bright pumpkin orange, the square canvas I toned in a peachy flesh color. Then I laid the paintings down overtop the wet underpainting. Consequently, the smaller painting seems bolder - those snippets of orange add a firey glow to the piece. The square painting carries more softness, I think because of the lighter ground.
I also used the exact same structure of colors, painting these side by side and simultaneously. I primarily used blues and oranges (compliments), yet the saturation is very different in each. The bolder underpainting demanded similar points of equal intensity. The softer underpainting allowed for a density and variety of edgework.
Oddly (not sure this was intentional or subconscious), the less confrontational profile design has brushwork that is dominant and pulls your eye around the painting, while the more confrontational head-on composition demands your eye via the dog's gaze and the brushwork becomes secondary.
I'm pleased with my mini lesson for the day. Now I'm back to the easel to play with these ideas some more.
Thanks, as always, for looking.
And for sharing these paintings with your friends and family.

FIfty-Two Vignettes - available via Ebay
This was one of my entries for the 2008 American Kennel Club-Eukanuba Poster Competition. (The design that won was delightfully clever (and sadly not mine) - a child gazing at a sky filled with dog-shaped clouds.) When I shared "Fifty-Two Vignettes" with Dog-a-Day readers last month there were a number of you who asked for the opportunity to purchase this piece when I decided to put it on the market. Well, I've decided. It needs a good home.
I'm trying something new - this painting will be auctioned off on ebay - you can see the listing at http://tinyurl.com/6dxn9x. The auction will go live at 6pm PST today (November 11th, 2008) and run for 7 days. Starting price is a mere $99!!
This painting was created using over 50 portraits from the Painting a Dog a Day project. It is done on gallery stretched canvas, so the painted details wrap around the sides and there is no need to frame. AND it is remarkably larger than my typical Dog-a-Day pieces - it has bits from 52 portraits in it! Details from these portraits were collaged together and painted so as to create an entirely new original work of art.
Inquiries may come to me at firstname.lastname@example.com. My ebay seller id is turtledovedesigns. The painting is ebay item number 330285879451. Happy bidding!
Thanks, as always, for looking and sharing my artwork with your friends and family.

Mandalyn, Tuxedo Cat
This is Mandalyn, a kitten I will be painting and blogging about regularly over the next few months. Mandalyn is under verterinarian care at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary (Kenab, Utah) for a variety of serious injuries. Her little body may be encased in plaster, but that hasn't dampened her spirit. You can read more about Mandalyn on the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary website - http://www.bestfriends.org/ - under the Guardian Angels section.
I don't know what it was about this kitten that spoke to me, but she spoke up loudly and clearly across the miles. And within a very short period of time, I was able to iron out a partnership with the staff at Best Friends, who welcomed my idea of painting Mandalyn regularly through her recovery. Every couple of weeks I'll share a new painting with you, and provide a little update on her progress as her body heals and she gets closer to finding a forever home.
Meanwhile, proceeds from all of the Mandalyn-inspired paintings will go to Best Friends. Perhaps you have seen their staff in motion via the National Geographic television program "Dog Town." Their website contains a host of testamonials about the quality of care and life altering support they consistantly provide for rescues, shelters and pet owners around the globe. I am hopeful that Mandalyn's paintings will touch a chord with the Dog-a-Day readers and allow me to continue to support and learn from this esteemed group.
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at, and sharing, my paintings.
I'll be back tomorrow with a dog for you,

Paco the Chihuahua
FROM TOP: "You are Getting Verrry Sleepy.....,", 8" square, $349, and "Glow in the Dark Ears," 6" square, $249. Both pieces depicting a tri-colored Chihuahua in acrylic on board. My client will take one (she's making up her mind) - who wants the other? Takers can email me at email@example.com .
This is a nice example of how the same photo inspires multiple paintings that are entirely different moods. Keep in mind that on the computer you are viewing these paintings the same size, but the full body piece is 150% larger then the little guy. The sweeps of color are beautiful - and you should see my palette, all full of the same lavendars, apricots and blues!
Please do share these paintings with your friends and family, and have a great weekend!

Dazzle, golden retriever
Paws with a Cause is a national group dedicated to providing assistance dogs for people with disabilities. They also provide a lifetime of support, fostering independance. I took this from their mission statement - read more for yourself at http://www.pawswithacause.org/.
In the beginning of the Painting a Dog a Day project I met UKON, a Paws service dog. Shortly after that, I got to paint Madison and Sirius, and the list goes on and on. Each Paws dog I meet is uniquely special, and to personally witness the bond they share with their person is humbling. To support the efforts of Paws with a Cause through my painting sales is phenomenal.
I met Dazzle last winter at the Detroit Kennel Club dog show. She was all too eager to go through her paces and make a new friend, but her mind was on work the whole time as well. Dazzle helps her person do just about everything, although I've been warned that she doesn't sort laundry that well.
Thanks, as always, for your time in following the Dog-a-Day paintings.
Please do share these with your friends and family.
See you tomorrow - I've got a dear little chihuahua in the works!

"A Long Night" is a special holiday gift for my clients' parents, who lost both dogs this last year. Although there is a new generation of goldens in the household now, there is no denying the special place Emma and Marcy held.
And yes, the title is a nod in part to how late I stayed up following election results. The piece isn't entirely done (maybe 90%) - it's scale and intricacy is far more than what I normally tackle in one day, even with a full eight hours of sleep. So I'll live with Emma and Marcy for a couple days, identifying what should be finessed. But in the meanwhile, I wanted to share their painting with you.
Sleep well tonight!
Thanks, as always, for looking at, and for sharing, these paintings with your friends and family.

Kimo, Dalmation
I love painting black and white dogs. The fun for me is trying to imagine them without any spots, and I build the architecture of their face using soft flesh and pastel tones. Then I punch up the painting by finishing off the eyes, and the final touch is laying the spots down. I go from a generic, ghost-like face, to one bursting with personality, just in a matter of minutes.
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at, and sharing, these paintings.

Sunbather (Roxy)
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at, and sharing these paintings, with your friends and family. Please do forward the images - it'll help Roxy's painting find a home, and in return, help who knows how many other shelter animals find forever homes too.
I am feeling brave - I enabled comments here on the Dog-a-Day blog. Feel free to share your thoughts!!
See you tomorrow!

Gray and White Tuxedo (Kitty)
I've been in the studio a good chunk of the weekend and was so thrilled with this new little painting that I simply couldn't wait to share it with you. Hence, a Sunday Bonus Dog-a-Day.
This is a cat who was at my local shelter a few weeks back. Such wonderfully soft fur, like angora, with a silent purr that tickled my bones. Proceeds from the sale of this painting will go to the Oakland Pet Fund (http://www.oaklandpetfund.org/) to help this cat and hundreds others like him find forever homes.
This painting would make a beautiful holiday gift, and in turn, would give also back to the critters at my shelter.
Thanks, as always, for looking at and sharing these paintings with your friends and family.
See you tomorrow,

Lashes and Corkscrews, Buckskin Horse
I really DID intend to paint today, but things got out of hand quickly. I think it was the Snickers bar breakfast that me going in the wrong direction right off the bat. Then the mid-morning helping of caramel corn followed by a Kit-Kat lunch.... straight downhill from there.
For the last hour I have had my palette open and the brushes out, but trick-or-treaters are coming thick and heavy, and it's becoming very clear that I will NOT be finishing the sheltie paintings tonight (so sorry JB - they are coming, though!!).
Instead I'll share with you a piece I did last week for an art competition. I won't find out about the juror's decision until December, but in the meanwhile, please enjoy Percy, my friend's new gelding. Isn't he a dear?!
Be sure to make some time for a few chocolate bars this weekendll!!
I wish everyone a safe and enjoyable evening,
PS You know I'll be raiding the kids' Halloween stash next week and creating some candy paintings. If you have any favorites you would like to see, shoot me a note: firstname.lastname@example.com .

Amadeus, tiny boy, big name
Amadeus is brother to Arwen, model for the first Dog-a-Day painting ever. You can see Arwen's painting at http://tinyurl.com/5bsex3 . Ami's painting will be joining his sister's and their busy household.
Thank you to everyone who helped locate my client yesterday. The problem wasn't her email after all - it was my fat-fingering her email into my address book. Silly me. I should know by now that I am the root of my worst problems.
And thank you, as always, for your time in looking at and sharing these paintings with friends and family.
See you tomorrow,
PS Another final plug for Painting a Dog-a-Day - the First Year. Please get your orders in by Saturday, November 1st, to guarantee holiday delivery. Softcovers are $39.95 and hardcovers are $54.95. Orders may come to email@example.com .

Hannah, terrier mix
Had a blast at the zoo yesterday with Annie's class - we spent a good amount of time in the butterfly house, watching them "hatch" from their chrysalises. It was very peaceful compared to the bus ride. I actually worked today without music (very rare), just to enjoy the solitude.
Am off to start a pot of soup for dinner. Lemon rice sounds good, with roasted chicken and homemade pita bread. mmmmmm.......
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at and sharing my paintings with friends and family,

Sadie, Beagle Portrait
"Sadie," 6" x 8", commissioned beagle portrait, acrylic on board, private collection (THANK YOU!). Inquiries may come to firstname.lastname@example.com .
My favorite part of this painting is Sadie's ears. They are loose and goey paint , simple layers of color, and perfectly frame her doe-like eyes. If I had painted the ears crisp and detailed, then Sadie's eyes would not lock you in like this. Notice how the collar and her mask, the only other harder edges in the whole painting, complete that frame around her face.
If you are interested in booking your own Dog-a-Day portrait, I have a limited number of holiday 2009 spots remaining. I know it's crazy to be thinking about next year before this one's even come up, but that's the way it is these days. Send an email to me - firstname.lastname@example.com - and I'll get you pencilled in.
Thanks, as always, for your time in looking at, and sharing, these paintings with your friends and family.
I'll be back Wednesday - tomorrow I am chaperoning a zoo field trip with my daughter's 2nd grade class.
PS If you want one of the Dog-a-Day books, "Painting a Dog a Day - the First Year," for a holiday gift I must have your order by November 1st (that's this Saturday). Softcovers are $39.95 and hardcovers are $54.95. Please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com .

I used to hardly ever use white, tinting my paints with yellow, pink, or a soft green. I still don't use a whole lot of white, but the point I'm getting at here is that I am recognizing (or rather now Seeing) the softer variations in those lighter values. I see color saturation so easily, and it wasn't so tough to see deeper variations of purples, blues, greens and reds in the dark values of my paintings. But it was a huge challenge for me to linger over the areas of light. I think I'm starting to get it though!!
Thanks, as always, for following along. Yes, please forward these paintings to friends and family.
Enjoy your weekend - stay warm, dry, and safe.
See you Monday,

Harry, terrier mix
I wish you could all hold Harry's painting in your hands, and see the layers of paint. Lots of wet-on-wet and really fun brushwork - this painting was a party!
I am especially enjoying the very nice gray I can get with ultramarine and cad red light. One of those mixtures that shifts warm-cold easily, and seems especially reactive to it's surroundings.
I've been told my domain name (http://www.turtledovedesigns.com/) will be mine again within 24 hours. It sure will be nice to ditch webmail and get a couple pages of data up on the web. Thanks again for your patience during this transition.
And thanks, as always, for your time in looking at and sharing these paintings with your friends and family.
And a huge happy birthday to my Evan, who turns 11 today!! WAHOO!!
See you tomorrow,

Quiksilver Pro France awaits worlds best surfers
The Quiksilver Pro France will kick off in three days on the South West Coast of France, settling down between the world famous beach breaks of Hossegor and Seignosse, and the famous Basque reef break of Lafitenia.
While 2009 the ASP World Title race remains wide open and very close amongst the top contenders (including reigning and nine-time ASP World Champion Kelly Slater (USA), 37), the Quiksilver Pro France will also stage the highly-anticipated battle between ratings' front-runners and struggling ASP Top 45 re-qualifiers.
Adrian Buchan (New South Wales, AUS), 27, defending Quiksilver Pro France champion, will be back on the battlefield where he clinched his first and only ASP World Tour victory in 2008 after defeating Slater in an exciting Final – postponing the Floridian's 9th ASP World Title claim. Buchan, a.k.a. "Ace", whose season has been interrupted by a serious knee injury that forced him out of two events already, will be eager to get back to his best level when he competes in France next week.
"This year has been different for me," Buchan said. "I started out really well on the Gold Coast [at the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast, first event of the year] and then struggled at the next two events before injuring myself in Bali on a surf trip. Being sidelined gives you incredible clarity and the break has been great for me. I got to do some different things and now I'm fresh and excited. My knee is getting better every week and is close to 100% so I'm feeling pretty confident for France."
Buchan, who is sitting on a 5th and three 17th places in 2009 thus far, is considered a threat at all locations on tour and could get back to the front stage next week in France, the Quiksilver Pro France being one of the man's favorite places on tour for its waves and lifestyle.
"Even before I won the event there, France felt like a special place to me," Buchan said. "I love the laid back vibe and the scenery and French culture and it's such a great time of year too. Crisp mornings and beautiful days – it's a tricky place to surf where you have to be very aware of the changing conditions and I like that. Hopefully we have some swell!"
Buchan will take on former ASP World Champion (2001) C.J. Hobgood (USA), 30, and 2009 ASP Dream Tour rookie Marlon Lipke (DE), 25, when competition commences.
While all eyes will be on surfing's greatest celebrities for two consecutive weeks in France, the biggest French contingent ever to compete on the ASP World Tour will be in the spotlights of national media. Local residents Michael Picon (Capbreton, FRA), 30, and Tim Boal (Anglet, FRA), 26, along with French Polynesian Michel Bourez (Tahiti PYF), 23, and world famous Jeremy Flores (New Caledonia/Capbreton, FRA), 21, are ready to shine in front of thousands of fans.
Picon, the most experienced French surfer on tour and already on his third year among the elite ASP Top 45, will be looking to clinch valuable ratings' points towards his 2010 ASP World Tour re-qualification campaign after a tough first part of the season. Picon, presently ranked outside the re-qualifying Top 27 prior to the Quiksilver Pro France, is considered a talented tube-rider, having placed ninth at Tahiti, Bali and Mundaka in 2008, and will be a serious contender if the swell reaches the six-to-eight-foot range during the Quiksilver Pro France.
"I'm feeling pretty good and I think my boards are really working well," Picon said. "I lost early in California so got back home with some time to practice and get used to the event location. It was good as well for the jet lag, and I am in rhythm right now. The location chosen for the event looks very fun and I think it is going to be a good contest."
Picon will face Dane Reynolds (USA), 24, and Chris Davidson (AUS), 33, in Round 1 of the Quiksilver Pro France. The Quiksilver Pro France will host the world's best surfers from September 23 to October 4, 2009.

An updated database of over 600 articles and counting gives you rich information about the following topics. These can keep you updated and also take some informed decisions irrespective of whether you are a small provider or an established head doctor of a hospital.
Here at MedicalBillersandCoders.com we try to provide solutions to this evergreen issue for doctors, medical administrative staff, billing and coding professionals to deal with the conventional as well as the latest trends in healthcare industry.
Much of the value delivered by healthcare today is dependent on record keeping. With complex procedures evolving both for providing care and billing for services offered, medical practices are relying heavily on daily, weekly and monthly medical review reports. Most medical practices derive value from their medical practitioners providing care to patients. But at the same time, in order to deliver value, physicians are expected to be expert billers, perform immaculate coding and do a series of administrative jobs. Review reports allow a physician to keep track of functioning of a practice at a more micro level, without actually wasting time in administrative activities of the practice.
However, it is very important to streamline your medical billing process with your reporting and review structure in order to ensure that only value adding information is generated at the time of reporting. On an average, a medical practice accumulates a lot of data regarding patient information, procedures performed, services delivered, claims filed, claims settled, claims rejected, payer mix, referrer mix, etc. Screening and compiling useful reports out of this much information can prove to be a tedious task especially when in-house staff is engaged in generation of data as well as reports. Some useful reports that can make your monthly reviews fruitful are -
As a physician and medical practitioner, it is of utmost importance to align medical practice goals with the kind of reports generated day on day and medicalbillersandcoders.com can be your billing partner for that. Medicalbillersandcoders.com is a Medical billing service provider that not only streamlines your medical billing process but also makes your decision making process smooth with relevant review reports. With effective reporting pertaining to your medical practice, you can grow financially both in short term and long term.

Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing bacterium that can only survive in humans.1 TB is contagious. Each untreated person with active TB will infect on average 10–15 people per year.2
It is estimated that overall, one third of the world's population is currently infected with M. tuberculosis,2 although the proportion of infected individuals may be much higher in developing world settings.3 However, not all individuals infected with M. tuberculosis will necessarily progress to active disease; an infected individual may have asymptomatic latent TB for years without any awareness of their condition.
HIV is the strongest risk factor for developing active TB in people with latent or new TB infections.4
TB is the leading cause of death in PLWHIV6; in 2008 and 2009, around 1 in 4 deaths among PLWHIV were attributed to TB.5,7 However, TB is preventable and curable with inexpensive medication.
– 1.1 million new cases of TB (13% of all new cases of TB)
– 350,000 deaths attributed to TB (24% of all deaths from TB)
– in 2010, of an estimated 1.1 million new TB cases in PLWHIV, 82% were in sub-Saharan Africa6
– in countries of Southern and Eastern Africa, more than half of all TB patients are estimated to be infected with HIV7
– in Southeast Asia, 46% of PLWHIV are infected with TB5
– in Europe, 14% of PLWHIV are infected with TB5
MDR-TB can be treated with second-line anti-TB therapy, but XDR-TB is virtually untreatable.8
– the proportion of new TB cases reported as showing multidrug resistance ranged from 0–28.9%
– the proportion of previously treated cases with MDR TB ranged from 0–65.1%
– provision of ART
– the Three I's for HIV/TB12
• Intensified case-finding of TB
• Isoniazid preventive therapy
• Infection control for TB
The WHO 2012 policy on collaborative TB/HIV activities provides:13
– a summary of recommendations for TB/HIV management from current guidelines and policy documents
– guidelines for TB/HIV management for national programmes and other stakeholders
– strategic advice for decision-makers in the field of health and managers of TB-control programmes and HIV programmes

KUALA LUMPUR: Former world junior champion Zulfadli Zulkiffli suffered a humiliating defeat to youngster Leong Jun Hao in the opening round of the Thailand Masters today.
Jun Hao, 19, upset the far more experienced Zulfadli 24-22, 21-19 in a match that lasted close to an hour in Bangkok.
Zulfadli's defeat only proved that the BA of Malaysia's (BAM) made the right decision to leave him out of the Asia Team Championships in Alor Star next month.
It also showed how far or how little Zulfadli has progressed over the years being a professional shuttler.
For Jun Hao, who is also the 2017 World Junior Championships runner-up, the win against Zulfadli is surely a boost for the shuttler who will play Indonesia's Firman Abdul Kholik in the second round tomorrow.
"I was calm and patient. I only attacked when I saw a clear chance. What's certain is that the win today definitely boosted my confidence, as I had to go through the qualifying rounds.
"I've played Firman before at the Malaysia International Challenge (November). Even though I won then, I don't want to take things lightly against him.
"My target is to go as far as I can in this tournament," said Jun Hao, who finished second at the Malaysia International Challenge.
National women's singles Soniia Cheah also reached the second round of the competition following a 21-12, 21-14 win over Thailand's Mattana Hemrachatanun. Soniia will play Thailand's Thamolwan Poopradubsil next for a place in the quarter-finals.
In men's doubles, reunited duo Goh V shem-Tan Wee Kiong, playing together for the first time in four months, barely broke a sweat when they chalked up a 21-6, 21-16 win over India's Kapil Chaudhary-Brijesh Yadav in the first round.
The 2016 Rio Olympic Games silver medallists will play Hong Kong's Lam Wai Lok-Li Kuen Hon next.
National teammates Ong Yew Sin-Teo Ee Yi, women's doubles Chow Mei Kuan-Lee Meng Yean and mixed doubles Chen Tang Jie-Peck Yen Wei all recorded wins to reach the second round today.

text: Pauly Shore, yes, the Weasel himself, is coming to the Funny Bone in Mishawaka on Thursday. The goofball from so-Cal, one time MTV-host and star of a string of movies, including the cult-hit "Encino Man," is on the line from his home in Los Angeles. His call is not exactly on time, but when the phone rings, the goofy, laid-back "hello" leaves no doubt as to who's on the other end. So he's not standing us up? "No way, babe," he says. "What's up?" Well, first, there's the matter of his current stand-up routine. Will it be vintage Pauly? "If people have seen me out there, they know I'm always current," he says. "You know, I'll pick up an 'US Weekly,' start riffing on who Jessica Simpson's having sex with." By now, he's more than comfortable on stage and the stand-up thing comes naturally. (Particularly somewhere such as the Funny Bone -- "There will be no studio executives in South Bend," he says.) Shore was pretty much born into the funny business. His father, Sammy, was a comedian who opened for Elvis Presley, and his mother, Mitzi, owns the Los Angeles club The Comedy Store. Shore started taking the stage there when he was just 17, then took his persona (which he named the Weasel while on MTV) to television and the big screen. His first film was "Encino Man," in which he played Stoney -- an effort that earned him a Golden Raspberry Award (a complement to the Oscars that dishonors terrible film work). The problem wasn't that the aptly named Stoney was unconvincing. The problem was that Shore wasn't acting. Now 38, he's been away from the big screen for some time. In fact, Shore did something of a disappearing act circa 1997. However, if you were thinking that Pauly is something of a punch line himself these days, just hang on. He beat you to the joke. Faced with the idea of "what do I do," Shore says he joked, "Why don't I (expletive) kill myself?" Thus, a concept was born. Shore's answer to the sudden lack of work was a film he wrote, financed and directed, called "Pauly Shore Is Dead." Released in 2003, the cameo-laden movie follows him as he fakes his own death in order to regain some cred. Rewinding to tougher times, we ask what life was like right before the "dead" project, and Shore gets a little more serious. (At least we think he does -- it's hard to tell.) "I was feeling a little bit funky. I was just burnt out. I was tired, and it was one of (those) things where my phone wasn't ringing like it once was, and I was feeling a little unwanted," he says. With everyone asking "what happened," Shore thought, why make excuses when he could make a funny movie? It was a little slow going at first, but eventually, things took off. "I went from begging Screech to be in it to getting Sean Penn," he says. (Screech, of course, is actor Dustin Diamond, who played the iconic nerd on "Saved by the Bell.") According to Shore, Penn was the key to it coming together. Of the end product, he says, "it was nice to get good reviews finally," and to work on something he's passionate about. Before then, he was feeling "burnt out, depressed and tired." So how does he feel now? "Burnt out, depressed and tired. No, I'm just kidding," he says. "I feel really good." With "Dead" under his belt, Shore is working on "Natural Born Komics," a comic potpourri that features hidden camera, parody, man-on-the-street, stand-up and music. Shore says it's a Dave Chapelle style of humor -- "frat funny, but smart." He's also doing a documentary of the making of the mockumentary, called "After I Got Sean Penn: the Making of 'Pauly Shore Is Dead.'" In addition, Shore will return to HBO's "Entourage," and, of course, he's on tour. (Both films are in the editing stages, so when he's on the road, he'll be inviting fans on the bus to have a look.) With all that on his plate, Shore says you won't see him on the C-list extravaganzas known as "Dancing with the Stars" and "The Surreal Life." They've called, and he's not interested. In fact, he's grateful that he doesn't have to go there. The last question we squeeze in is what he, as an MTV alum, thinks of the station's current programming. Shore confesses his love for MTV dating shows "Next" and "Parental Control." Just as he's going into a convincing impression of "Next" contestants, however, Shore makes his exit. "I have to walk my dogs. They're looking at me," he says, the goofiness creeping back into his voice. "They're getting mad at you." The Weasel has reappeared without warning -- and in just four days, he'll be at the Funny Bone.

Today's tech business game: What to do with Yahoo?
We've already implored Yahoo to buy AOL, install Tim Armstrong as CEO, and cut some fat.
Youssef Squali at Jefferies has a few ideas of his own. The most intriguing of which is to take Yahoo private.
In a report he says Yahoo could go private at $20-$23 per share. Then it could work on rebuilding itself without the pressure/scrutiny of the public markets.
We're not sure if it's in the best interest of Yahoo, but if the stock keeps slipping, Yahoo sure does look like a good buyout target.
Buy Yahoo, sell off the Asian assets, thin the ranks, make the company healthy, then IPO or sell it.
Here's Squali's sum of the parts analysis of Yahoo:

Carrinho guarda chuva will always be associated with useful features like affordability, easy storage and advantages. A carrinho de bebe is going to be right just about on every situation, so read on to learn about when to use and never to use a carrinho guarda chuva.
What may be the fuss about looking a great carrinho guarda chuva? Exactly what is a carrinho guarda chuva? Associated with how an umbrella is successful. It can be folded and stored away easily. Hence it is the same with a carrinho guarda chuva and no, you are not employing it to maintain the rain from your baby or for you. The reason it is termed a guarda chuva is as the shape of the handle bars are in the shape of a normal umbrella tips a 'J' curve. Merely like an umbrella, it can be easily folded to be stored in the future. Hence it would desire to turn into a light reclining stroller too so that you simply do not break a sweat carrying it or putting it away.
In some cases, you could be nervous about the security of your child facing away from you on these carrinhos. Instead belonging to the forward-facing stroller, you can instead try a baby carriage, traditionally termed as a pram. A pram is certainly a bassinet on wheels, and your son or daughter lays down while facing you. These also along with umbrella-like covers to protect the baby from sunlight.

BEHIND-THE-SCENES jockeying has begun in earnest for the most significant changing of the guard this city has seen in a quarter-century.
Since the October announcement by Mayor Tom Bradley that he will not seek an unprecedented sixth term, no fewer than 24 names have been tossed around as candidates for the office. Nineteen have declared they are raising money.
By many accounts, the most serious candidates at this point are Michael Woo, a seven-year city councilman and the first Asian-American to serve on that body; state Assemblyman Richard Katz (D) of Los Angeles, a leader on transportation issues; and attorney Richard Riordan, L.A.'s wealthy former recreation and parks commissioner.
The candidates who meet the Jan. 25 filing deadline will face off in a nonpartisan primary on April 20. The top two finishers will then meet in a June 8 election.
"We have a new generation of candidates vying to lead a city that has reversed itself in ethnic makeup," says Larry Berg, director of the Jesse Unruh Institute of Politics at the University of Southern California. He notes that whites made up 65 to 70 percent of the city in 1972, when Mayor Bradley took office, but have since dwindled to 30 to 35 percent.
"The mayor's race is the most important decision this city has to make for a new, very unsure era," Professor Berg asserts.
The new mayor will take the helm of the nation's second-largest city roughly one year after the worst civil disturbances in modern United States history. Recovering from the riots, and dealing with the fallout from several related trials that are still pending, will probably top the next mayor's agenda.
The increasing balkanization of the city is another pressing issue. Whites, Koreans, Chinese, blacks, and Hispanics are separating into neighborhoods divided along ethnic lines. The city's broader divisions into rich versus poor - symbolized by the differences between Bel-Air and South Central Los Angeles - were underlined by the 1992 riots.
Bradley had built a base of Jewish and black voters. But after two decades of coalition politics, many are wondering whether it's time for a new style of leadership.
"Is it time to search for another person who can unite these further diversifying communities or a broker who can deal with them without fantasizing that they can be brought together?" asks Sherry Jeffe, a political scientist at the Claremont Graduate School.
Fiscal concerns will also challenge Bradley's successor. The city government is running a $155 million deficit. As a result, welfare programs are being being cut and the L.A. school district teeters on the brink of bankruptcy. At the same time, residents have been pressing the new police chief, Willie Williams, to put thousands more officers on the streets.
Yet the word "tax" is anathema to politicians who are trying to reverse the well-publicized tide of businesses exiting the state.
"I have not heard a single candidate address how they are going to pay for new ideas," Professor Jeffe says. "We are left with the intangible of intangibles.... What are the qualities of leadership and who has them?"
The distinguishing feature of the race so far is that no candidate has been able to separate himself from the pack, in part because two of the highest-profile possible contenders - Los Angeles County Supervisor Gloria Molina and City Councilman Zev Yaroslavsky - have taken themselves out of the running.
Of the 19 people who have declared they will collect funds to campaign, nine have held posts in city or county government and 10 are virtually unknown. The sheer number of entries will have an important effect on strategies, experts say, since a candidate garnering only 20 percent of the electorate may make it into the runoff.
"The problem for candidates will be how to define themselves narrowly enough to win the primary runoff, without damaging their more general appeal in the general election," Berg says.
Messrs. Woo, Katz, and Riordan are said to lead the pack because all three have broad-based constituencies, a demonstrated ability to raise money, and appeal on a wide range of issues.
High-cost consultants are behind at least two of their campaigns. James Carville, widely credited with masterminding President-elect Clinton's campaign, has been retained by Katz. Robert Squier, a veteran consultant who ran Texas Gov. Ann Richards's 1990 campaign, has been hired by Woo.
"You don't bring in high-paid gunslingers like Squier and Carville without getting a race with candidates going for the jugular," Berg says.
Woo is a liberal who says government can intervene effectively in the local economy. He stresses the need for the city to back loans to minority businesses, to help find jobs for high school students, and to create an "urban peace corps" to harness the idealism of college-age youths.
Riordan is a fiscal conservative and longtime critic of government red tape. He contends that the economy will not revive until the city is a safer and more hospitable place to do business.
Katz says he will try to present himself as someone with no ties to the city political machinery. "Voters will be looking for someone who thinks like they do, has the same frustrations they do, and has a track record but is not part of the problem downtown," he says.

Inevitability Is Gone, But Hillary Still Has Money To Burn
The horrific third place finish that the LFR predicted two months ago became very real yesterday even before Iowans moved in droves to caucus. When Clinton's campaign began lowering the bar so starkly and columnists began criticizing her hubris in even trying in Iowa.
To political junkies this loss was less than shocking and doesn't mean her bid to be the first female president is in the trash. But, to the other 300 million-plus Americans, the enevitability of her campaign took a a huge hit. Just like the candidate herself, the reaction will be polarizing. Either it confirms suspicions that the country is not ready for a woman in the White House or it will be a call to arms for women and allies of the Clinton dynasty.
Clinton's advantage is that her coffers can go deep into Super Duper Tuesday on Feb. 5 even if she doesn't win much. It also could give rise to her campaign using her husband's "Comeback Kid" moniker in either New Hampshire or South Carolina. Do not underestimate the Clinton's ability to spin anything.
Remember, Bill Clinton lost by eight points in the 1992 New Hampshire primary to Paul Tsongas and was still able to claim victory.
Her candidacy took a major hit, but she's the only candidate to could significantly take on water and still continue sailing. She's not done and, in the end, the inevitable turnover in her campaign will bring a more steady and cogent message.
1 comment:
Hillary has much more deeply-rooted problems. Opposition to Hillary isn't there because we dislike a woman candidate, it's b/c we dislike Hillary in particular, and especially abhor her stands on some important issues.
Iraq was bad, but we can look past that in our neighborhood. We can never look past the way she's so anxious to give already stressed American workers the shaft. Especially those in the knowledge industries.
Hillary wants to almost double the number of H1B visas given to people from Russia, India, Pakistan and similar places to take US tech jobs on the cheap. Then outsource whatever good-paying jobs are left, out to Delhi or Bangalore in India.
Anyone working within this field knows how financially awful it's become. People who train to become computer programmers or engineers spend over a decade acquiring their training at universities where tuition sends them deeply into debt. To invest such massive time and money in these careers, engineers and scientists must have a reasonable expectation of landing a good-paying job afterward, otherwise nobody will subject themselves to the process.
H1-B and outsourcing kill that incentive, which is why so few Americans are studying the sciences or engineering anymore. Even worse, those already trained in these fields-- burdened by educational debt-- are now multiply screwed, since people from India or Russia (who don't have anything like US educational debt) are able to come in and push US tech wages way down, while sending jobs overseas to Bangalore.
Hillary stupidly supports this corrupt program, which is why we'll never, ever vote for her, even if the Democrats nominate her. We'd all vote for Edwards or especially Obama in a moment, they're much more in tune with these problems. But we'll never vote for Hillary. In fact, we'd cross the aisle and vote for Huckabee if Hillary were nominated-- he's much more in tune with these issues than Hillary is. The Democratic Establishment should take this to heart.

For Tigers fans, there are very specific events that might signify a coming apocalypse. Inge batting above .250, Scherzer pitching with control for two consecutive starts ( . . . can you tell I'm watching the game right now?), etc. I don't know if any of you noticed, because he doesn't belong to us anymore, but something happened this weekend that makes me think we may not have much time left.
Fernando Rodney has a win and a save this season for the Rays. Already. In fact, he got a save yesterday on one pitch.
I know, right? I really have nothing else to say about it. Just thought you all might want to be aware.
In other news, while our bats have proven as magnificent as we could have hoped (get it together, Brennan), the pitchers are responsible for the first stirrings of panic in our hearts. I'm not talking about the 37 pitches Scherzer just took to get through one inning, either. Fister is the first regular season DL victim, which I declared The Worst Thing yesterday, proving that I am not immune to the hysteria. For those of us freaking out, Jim Leyland offered these comforting words:
"[Brayan] Villarreal has joined the team and we will have a starter at the appropriate time. Who it is, I have no clue. None." (MLB.com)
I thought it was obvious that Below would be the starter, especially since Below pitched well above my expectations when he took over for Fister and thus can be on the same rest schedule as Fister, and Smyly would be pulled up as scheduled. However, this also happened yesterday
Smyly- 1.2 innings, 3 hits, 3 runs, 3 ER, 2 BB, 1 SO
Ladies and gentlemen, your fifth starter!

How to start to date a rich cougar on cougarsdatingwebsites.com? Here are 6 pointers to utilize:
1. Exactly what are you wanting to discover?
There are thousands of websites, much of which cater to really specific singles.
– Are you looking for friendship, a major relationship, or are you just looking for a good time?
– Heterosexual or homosexual site?
– Are you searching for somebody who resembles you (i.e. Christian, Jewish, Muslim, African American, Italian, French, German, Overweight, Disabled, Single parent, and so on)? You need to go shopping in the right place to discover the thing you're looking for.
2. Does the website use a free trial subscription?
All trustworthy sites will provide you a free trial subscription. This is a great sales tool, since it gives you a chance to see what the site has to provide before you pay any loan. One thing to be aware of, you will have really restricted gain access to with a complimentary membership. You might not be able to sneak peek lots of profiles, and you will not be able to initiate interaction with other profiles till you update to a paid membership.
3. What tools/technology does the site deal?
Online dating has come a long way over the past few years, and there are numerous tools you can use to communicate with other suitors. Examine to see exactly what tools a website utilizes to promote this interaction. A few of the most typical tools are: email, chat, private chat, instantaneous messaging, audio introductions, web chat, blogs, interactive magazines, and groups.
4. How secure is your details?
Make certain that the service you are planning to utilize secures all of your personal details. A lot of services use both email and talk through an internal mailbox. What that suggests is the individual you are interacting with never has access to your actual e-mail address unless you offer it to them. Another great feature to try to find is the ability to block a specific member from interacting with you. There's absolutely nothing even worse than having a stalker.
5. The number of members in your city?
This is a crucial indicate take a look at. How many people are interested in beginning a relationship with someone who lives 500+ miles away? It just isn't convenient to fulfill them personally. It's much easier to fulfill someone who lives within 40 minutes of your house over a cup of coffee or a fast lunch.
6. What does it cost? does it cost?
As much as we don't prefer to admit it, cash is always a factor. To discover a quality single, you are going to need to take out your charge card and spend for a subscription. Paid websites provide one valuable thing, which's that their members have a beneficial interest in existing, and as a result they are severe about looking for others. Search for a website that provides you the very best bang for your dollar.
As soon as you feel comfy with the functions a website uses, focus your efforts on setting up the best profile you can. After that's finished, relax and enjoy meeting all the quality singles these sites have to use.

Facilitating corporate sector, SECP wants SMC rules amended
As per statement issued by SECP, in order to facilitate the corporate sector, the requirements of nominee and alternate nominee directors as well as particulars and documents of the legal heirs of the Single Member have been proposed to be deleted from the SMC rules.
According to spokesman of SECP, the concept of single member company was introduced in the year 2002 while detailed framework for registration of `Single Member Companies' was provided in the year 2003.
These rules allow single persons/businessmen to convert their non-corporate entities into companies with limited liability of the members and enabling them to deal with public entities as companies rather than individuals.
The draft of proposed amendment in Single Member Companies (SMC) 2003 rules has been published in official gazette as well as on the website of SECP for public opinion.

Former Manchester United defender Gerard Pique has put pen to paper on a five year contract extension at Barcelona.
Barcelona centre-back Gerard Pique has signed a new deal at Barcelona which will take him up until 2019.
He agreed the contract extension yesterday morning, and spoke of his confidence the Spanish club can reclaim top honours, having finished the season trophyless for the first time since his arrival at the club in 2008.
Pique said: "Barcelona have to be at the top, winning trophies and making our presence felt among the elite of European and world football. We have the team and the coach, so we have all the ingredients to get back where we belong."
The weekend saw a strange scenario for Barcelona, with two Spanish sides battling it out for the Champions League title, and they were not one of them.
You would imagine that would only increase the desire for the 2009 and 2011 Champions League winners to outdo both of their Madrid rivals, beginning with transfer business this summer.
Tying Pique down to a new contract was clearly a first priority after bringing in Luis Enrique as manager, and almost entirely rules out any talk the Spanish international may head back to Manchester United one day, where he learned his trade as a youngster between 2004 and 2008.
Pique said two months ago that he could consider retiring at the club, and his commitment yesterday was met with praise from Barcelona president Josep Bartomeu.
"It is very important to consolidate Gerard Pique at Barcelona. He's the best centre-back in the world and he is a core part of the new project here at Barcelona."

In the early days of the first PlayStation's initial reign, there wasn't much to keep us RPG fans very happy. We had Suikoden and maybe King's Field and Vandal Hearts and that was about it. Luckily, Sony's homegrown western sci-fi piece, Wild ARMs, eventually came along too, and in an era before the gargantuan Final Fantasy VII created a role-playing renaissance, it was a bona fide blessing. At the time, it had a lot of the features we were looking for: Good graphics, a nice soundtrack, an original setting, and a unique battle system to name but a few. And as you might have guessed, it earned plenty of accolades and sold a bunch of copies as a result, all of which were accomplishments well deserved.
Eight years later, Agetec is attempting to capture that magic once again with the intricately-titled remake, Wild ARMs -- Alter Code: F. But while this effort is certainly a good game that offers a nice amount of fun for nostalgists and newbies alike, it doesn't hold quite the same weight that it used to in today's market filled with a never-ending supply of new RPGs.
That said, I'll tell you what I do like about Alter Code: F, and that's its dedication to revision. Though the new Wild ARMs is in several ways the same game that it was in 1997, it's different in just as many respects. A revamped graphics engine, an extended and re-translated script, experience point modifiers, additional characters, stat-tracking, and a host of new puzzles and optional areas really push its concept beyond that of a simple remake. Developers Media Vision should really be commended on how well it's managed to balance the original source material with new content so effectively -- there's a little bit for everyone here.
Another thing that Alter Code: F does well (which the first game also excelled at) is tell its story. Following the exploits of Wanderers Rudy Roughknight, Jack Van Burace, and Cecila Lynne Adlehyde, Wild ARMs is your classic tale of a society trying to keep its bad history from repeating itself. Of course, repeat is what history does best and it doesn't take long before our heroes are thrown nose-first into the middle of a battle to save the world. The plot doesn't really offer any twists or turns that RPG veterans or Wild ARMs fans haven't seen before, but what it lacks in originality it makes up for in heart.
In fact, Alter Code: F provides some great fan service to the series' devoted followers as it fleshes out all the major players far more than it did before. Gamers will be able to play as a few of their favorite personalities from the PSOne game (in addition to the classic folks mentioned above) as well, and there's enough new stuff for diehards to make it worth checking out.
