Now that the nursery is finished and Liv has a comfy room to sleep in and plenty of play space to explore, it's time to get back to the office/guest room makeover (man oh man are kitchen barstools not a comfortable place to work on your computer all day!).
Last time we left this space, just before Christmas, we were working on projects like this:
Demo time! We were hoping that we might be able to squeak out a new office/guest room before Liv joined us (not a completely furnished space – just a bare room would do) and before you knew it the entire room had been torn to shreds.
Here's a quick recap on the tiny bedroom and old kitchen space before demo (actually, before we moved in). You can see in the top sledgehammer photo that we painted the little bedroom a neutral tan and used the paneled walls to create a chair rail look, and that's how it lived for the first two and a half years. But for a more dramatic before and after, these are the two rooms that are now the office at the time we purchased the home:
Kevin worked for about two weeks over Christmas and New Years to bring down the wall between the two rooms and to clear out the entire space.
You can see from above that we had made a few changes to the old kitchen after we moved in as well, such as painting the walls a soft green and staining the older cabinets a dark espresso. We also changed out the hardware and added a jute window shade where a valence had once hung.
When family came to town for Christmas, this is what they were met with. They're used to construction around here but boy was the inside of this room dirty! We attempted to tape it off to the outside world but there wasn't much to be down to hide the elephant in the room.
The smashed drywall and extra dust didn't have much time to settle in, and just before Liv's arrival on January 9 we were able to clear the extra debris out of the room so that it looked a bit more like this:
And then Liv was here! And the office makeover rested as-is for several long months… Kevin went back to school, we all got to know beautiful baby and we started working on the new guest bathroom after the-best-email-ever arrived.
But the office is back! We're diving into it as we speak (doing double duty on the office/guest room and the new bathroom) and today the office looks a bit cleaner from the outside:
Her framed walls are now covered in hardibacker and plaster, they have the slight 'Spanish texture' applied and they're painted the same Buzz Brown as the kitchen (which is just behind me in this picture.) Even the ceiling with its previously open attic access (left over from installing the new AC/heater) is all closed up with a new attic door and a coat of white paint.
Now you're all caught up to where we've left off. I'm so excited for this new space! and doubly excited to move my home office from the kitchen island into an organized room.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity is the third sequel in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game series released in November 2012 in Japan. It was first announced to the public in the Japanese 'CoroCoro' magazine on September 12, 2012.
A major improvement is introduced in Gates to Infinity is that the game features a full 3D world. All other games in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series so far have been 2D third-person games, so this improvement is quite dramatic.
In each Mystery Dungeon game, a Pokémon is selected to be given to the player as their starter. Unlike the other handheld Mystery Dungeon games, you are able to choose your playable Pokémon from the start.
Furthermore, one can befriend and have all starters by going to:
- Uncharted Road via Dreamy Island (Befriend Pikachu and Oshawott)
- Uncharted Road via Rusty Mountain or Moonlit Forest (Befriend Snivy)
- Uncharted Road via Smokey Mountain (Befriend Tepig)
Game mechanics
- The game features 144 recruitable Pokémon, many of which are from Generation V.
- Features appearances from Virizion, Gurdurr, Hydreigon, Cofagrigus, Foongus, Cinccino, Dunsparce, Espeon, Umbreon, Excadrill, Rampardos, Pelipper and Kecleon.
- You receive Quest Requests from a Request Board and go on the requests by talking with Azumarill. Cofagrigus runs a store that deals with Gold Bars, Rampardos runs the Treasure Store, Cinccino runs a gift shop, and Kecleon returns with his usual Goods Store.
- A "magnagate" is a type of portal in the game that teleports your team into different dungeons. However, you don't use your own Pokémon, instead having your team chosen for you the first time you go through it. The dungeon you are teleported to is selected based on the circle used and also randomly.
- You can create new Magnagates by using an included AR feature and scanning circular things.
New Features/Mechanics
- New Items
- Team Attack and Team Skills instead of IQ Skills.
- Creating and expanding the Pokémon Paradise.
- Job offers for Single player and Multiplayer.
- Ability to change from Player Mode to Companion Mode.
- Multiplayer Local Play
- New Starter Pokémon
- Some Dungeons will not make you loose your Items and Money, but for higher leveled Dungeons only items will be lost.
- Many new Dungeons to explore, such as Scorching Desert and Cape at the Edge
- DLC Downloadable Content
- Improved Legendary Battles
The game begins when the player hears a voice from somewhere which tries to tell him/her to save the Pokémon world, but then screams for help, and the player sees a Munna being chased by a Hydreigon. The player then sees his/her reflection being changed from a human into a Pokémon. Then, the main character falls from the sky into the Pokémon world meeting his/her partner (who the player chooses). Then, after talking, the player and his/her partner join together as a team and try get to a meeting, but they see that the bridge towards it is broken, so they travel through Ragged Mountain to get to the other side. After they get to the other side, they visit Quagsire, the player's partner buying land from him. After they spend a night there, the player and partner decide to have a house built for themselves, and so Quagsire shows them Post Town, and takes them to the carpenter, Gurdurr. Gurdurr then requests five blue jewels from the player & the partner. The player and the partner then go through Stony Cave to get the jewels. After they complete their task, they bump into a Scraggy on the way back to Gurdurr, who secretly steals the jewels. When they come back to Gurdurr, they find out they're empty-handed, making Gurdurr tense, Gurdurr instructs them to go back and get more jewels. As they leave to find more jewels, Gurrdur's partners (two Timburr) reveal to the player & partner that the Scraggy stole the jewels from them, and tells the player & partner to go to a different dungeon called Hazy Pass to retrieve the jewels back from Scraggy. After getting through the first 3 levels of Hazy Pass, it is revealed that Gurdurr & Scraggy are partners, and meant to steal more jewels from the player & partner. However the player & partner come out of hiding & battle the thieves. After winning, Scraggy runs away, while Gurdurr's assistants (the Timburr) come and try to convince Gurdurr out of stealing. Though, Gurdurr reclines & beats the two up traveling even further into the dungeon. The two Timburr reveal that Gurdurr used to be a very good carpenter, until he hurt his back and got a scar. The partner decides to get Gurdurr to build them the house, so that Gurdurr can start being a good carpenter again. And so, they travel up to the peak of Hazy Pass, where they battle Gurdurr again. When Gurdurr is defeated, he reveals his scar explaining the incident, which then the Timburr come and get Gurdurr to be a good carpenter again. He then builds your house. Later on, you go on a request from Emolga to find Dunsparce in Stonestump Peak. Along the way, your partner picks up a gem. When you find Dunsparce, Emolga comes as well and the four of you return to Pokémon Paradise. There, you receive a reward for finding Dunsparce. Dunsparce then reveals why he had gone to the dungeon. Your partner then gives Dunsparce the gem she/he picked up so he can give it to Virizion. However, when he tries to become friends with her, she turns him down. Emolga is very angry at Virizion. This will influence most of her actions in the story line. When he leaves,everyone celebrates because they had also been turned down and partying is the best way to get it off of their mind.
Soon after you leave the inn, Quagsire tells you that Dunsparce was taken to Desolate Canyon by two suspicious Pawniard. You and your partner run off, while Virizion was watching.
After reaching Dunsparce and the Pawniard, you are surrounded by other bad Pokémon. Immediately after, Virizion, Gurdurr, and the Timburr come to your defense, revealing that Virizion overheard some of what Quagsire said, and created a search party. A battle takes place between the Pawniards, Galvantula, and Venipede vs. you, your partner, and your allies. When defeated, the bad guys run off. Your partner invites Emolga and Dunsparce to the team, along with Virizion after she asks. The following morning, a Pelipper arrives with a message from Helping Adventurous Pokémon Prosper Institution, or HAPPI. You then decide on a team name. Later, Pelipper comes back with team badges and other items from HAPPI.
Gurdurr will set up shop in Paradise and you have to get a Sturdy Vine to help him practice being a carpenter again. After completing some missions from the bulletin board, a comet heads straight toward Paradise, crashing right where you are. It's revealed to be Victini and its V-Wheel. Victini explains that it's the V-wave season, when certain types get powered up, depending on the day. And Victini's V-Wheel allows to change the V-Wave type once per day. That night, the main player has a dream, with the same voice, only clearer, but not for long. After waking up, the main player tells the partner about his dreams. The partner then tries to explain things better to the player, making the player notice some things about his/her dreams. After another mission, Dunsparce brings the team together on the hilltop, showing a glacier mountain up ahead. Virizion tells them that it's the Great Glacier, saying that it's the greatest adventure and that it's impossible to get there.
- This game's plot shares a few similarities with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Darkness.
- Both have a Pokémon that seems to be evil, but are actually trying to help out. (Grovyle and Hydreigon)
- Both have a legendary Pokémon that has been corrupted by a stronger force. (Dialga and Kyurem)
- Both have a servant Pokémon of the main villain who doesn't seem all that bad at first. (Dusknoir and Munna)

The Accounting Historians Journal Vol. 17, No. 2 December 1990
Sidney Davidson Accounting Hall of Fame Member Arthur Young Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Accounting
and former Dean, University of Chicago Graduate School of Business
It is my great personal pleasure to present the citation for "Chuck" Horngren on his induction to the Accounting Hall of Fame. We all know "Chuck" as an excellent teacher, a dedicated contributor to the effective working of the accounting profession, and a truly outstanding author. But as a friend for three decades and as a colleague in various endeavors for much of that time, I can testify to more than that. "Chuck" is a warm, friendly soul, always willing to help, doing more than his share of the work without claiming credit for it. There is not a single malicious bone in his body. My life has been enriched by knowing him, working with him, and enjoying his company and that of Joan for these many years. With memory of this lifetime of friendship, I am proud to read this citation.
INDUCTION CITATION by
Thomas J. Burns Professor and Chairman Committee on Accounting Hall of Fame Faculty of Accounting & Management Information Systems The Ohio State University College of Business
Among the few most influential teachers of his generation, he has been a dominant force in changing the traditional courses in internal accounting from cost accounting's overemphasis on accu-mulation and calculation of product costs, to managerial account-ing, which explores the uses of costs for various purposes.

CCS Cataloging Norms Interest Group (CNIG) Saturday, July 11, 2009, 1:30-3:30 p.m. Chicago Hilton, Continental C
Four presentations and discussions "for the exploration, communication, and exchange of ideas and best practices on the dynamics of cataloging/metadata norms and workflows in the hybrid environment."
Title: Beyond the OPAC: Creating Different Interfaces for Specialized Collections in an ILS System (20 minutes)
Presenter: Sai Deng, Metadata Catalog Librarian, Wichita State University Libraries, Wichita Kansas.
- Description: This presentation will discuss the speaker's experiment of creating featured websites from specialized data in Voyager ILS such as faculty author books, leisure reading, new book lists and local Art Museum collection. These websites can be seamlessly integrated into public programming events and library instruction sessions to introduce local authors, featured collections and resources in a specific area. The websites of Faculty Research Publications and Women's Studies Video Resources at Wichita State University will be showcased. The speaker will also discuss the model used to create the websites: selecting data from Oracle database, presenting SQL query results, and creating the websites using web programming for browsing and search. The option of transforming data from MARC to DC will also be discussed. This model can be applied to different sets of data by slightly modifying the query, the programming and the web appearance. Some features of public websites such as linking each record back to OPAC, adding RSS feeds, Syndetic and other cover images to the websites will be addressed. Finally, the speaker will discuss disintegration of library data versus integration of library data and the pros and cons of each method.
Title: Cataloging Art and Cultural Works in Library Collections (20 minutes)
Presenter: Elizabeth O'Keefe, Director of Collection Information Systems, Morgan Library & Museum, New York, N.Y.
- Description: Works of art and material culture are found in almost every library collection, in the form of portraits of founders or donors, artwork donated for decorative purposes, or cultural objects in collections of papers acquired by the library. There are usually too few objects to justify the creation of a separate database; in any case, a separate database complicates collection management and fragments access.
- The best way to provide access to these objects is to document them in the main library catalog. In doing so, librarians will find it helpful to look beyond rules designed for cataloging textual and/or published material, and to seek guidance from descriptive conventions developed by other metadata communities. In particular, Cataloging Cultural Objects: A Guide to Describing Cultural Works and Their Images (CCO) is an invaluable source for the choice and formulation of information appropriate for the description of art and cultural works. The presenter will describe how the Morgan Library & Museum applies CCO as a supplement to library data standards such as AACR, DCRM, Betz, etc. when creating MARC records for art and cultural objects in its Voyager library system, and how these records are repurposed as metadata for Web-accessible digital images.
Questions/Discussion (10 minutes)
Title: The eXtensible Catalog's Metadata Services Toolkit: Lowering the Bar for Automated Metadata Processing (20 minutes)
Presenter: Jennifer Bowen, Director of Metadata Management, Co-Principal Investigator, eXtensible Catalog Project, University of Rochester, Rochester, N.Y.
- Description: Libraries are struggling with the challenges of integrating metadata from a variety of sources: MARC catalog data; metadata from institutional repositories, digital projects, and course management systems, into their web discovery interfaces. Combining such disparate metadata as part of a library workflow will require easy-to-use tools for automated processing of metadata to correct, enrich, transform, and aggregate metadata from these disparate sources.
- The eXtensible Catalog (XC) Project is developing an open-source platform that will enable libraries to easily accomplish these tasks. The XC Metadata Services Toolkit (MST) enables the processing of metadata in any XML schema using pluggable services, automatically handles updated records, enables the scheduling of a variety of services, and makes the updated metadata available for harvesting by other applications. The MST offers an ideal platform for experimenting with new emerging schemas and standards, such as RDA. This presentation will describe the MST and its services, and the importance of this tool for libraries. It will also include a demonstration of the latest version of the MST, which is currently being developed.
Title: Better, Faster, Stronger: Integrating Archives Processing and Technical Services (20 minutes)
Presenters: Betty Meagher, Head, Metadata & Materials Processing, Penrose Library, University of Denver, Colorado and
Kate Crowe, Interim Archives Processing Librarian, Penrose Library, University of Denver, Colorado.
- Description: Archival processing and library technical services are both undergoing radical changes in an attempt to stay relevant in an increasingly digital world. Archives have struggled to shift their focus from cataloging at the collection-level to deeper, more granular access to archival materials to meet increasing user demands for digital access to individual collection objects, while library technical services have begun to look for new activities as processing non-unique print resources becomes less of a focus. The archival community's issues are compounded by the fact that both metadata standards (EAD) and content standards (DACS) are geared toward the collection, rather than to the items in the collection. Archival professionals have traditionally viewed each collection, and each metadata record about each collection, as unique in and of itself. This artisanal approach has limited the archives' ability to extend processing to the deeper level of detail required to make digital access to collection materials possible.
- In contrast, library technical services have traditionally used streamlined and automated workflows for processing and the aggregation of content at the item level though subject terms as an organizing principle of access.
- In an era of shrinking budgets, reduced staffing, and the need for units to show their value to the larger organization, this presentation will show how one library and archives saw these challenges as an opportunity to fully integrate archives processing into its technical services unit and develop a hybrid form of processing that respects the traditions of both disciplines while creating more user-focused metadata and access tools.

- Co-Chairs, ALCTS CCS Cataloging Norms Interest Group
Electronic Resources Interest Group (ERIG), Saturday, July 11, 2009, from 10:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.
The ALCTS CCS Electronic Resources Interest Group invites you to attend its panel discussion "Pay-Per-View Options: Is Transactional Access Right For My Institution?" on Saturday, July 11, 2009, from 10:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m., Chicago Hilton, Continental Ballroom B.
The discussion will center on the experiences of libraries and publishers as they implement and manage transactional access models at their institutions. The panelists will discuss why transactional access was right for their institution, the driving forces behind their decisions, the implementation process, technical implementation and management of the access, and the outcomes of their endeavors. Following the presentations will be a "question and answer" period, as well as an open forum for audience members to share their experience(s) with fellow session participants.
The panel includes:
- Pay Per View – Where We Were, Where We Are and Where Are We Going Next?
- Beth R. Bernhardt
- Jackson Library
- University of North Carolina at Greensboro
- Between 2002 and 2003, the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) set up several different types of pay-per-view options that provided users with over 3,500 unsubscribed titles. A few years later the library set up access to many of these titles through Consortium Big Deals. This presentation will talk about what options the library experimented with, what is still there, compare its pay-per-view statistics with its big deals and discuss how libraries might use pay-per-view options in the coming years.
- Developing a Pay-Per-View Model in a Financially Challenging Budget Year
- Nicole Mitchell and Elizabeth Lorbeer
- Lister Hill Library of the Health Sciences
- University of Alabama at Birmingham
- Anticipated reductions at the University of Alabama, Birmingham, for fiscal year 2009/2010 will result in a content budget of roughly half what it was four years ago. The library went from having packages with almost every commercial and society publisher to just a few packages in 2009. Over 4,500 titles were cancelled for 2009, with only 52 journals being reinstated by user request. In exploring a solution for next fiscal year, the library began to investigate investing twenty percent of its journal budget to subsidized pay-per-view by setting up deposit accounts with the publishers, with a goal to significantly lower user fees for article access.
- Fast Food Nation/Google Generation/Financial Down Turn...Meet the Library
- Ryan Weir and Ashley Ireland
- Murray State University
- Murray, Kentucky
- Murray State University has recently undertaken a project that will be the inaugural step in its transition to both providing optimized digital access and change of the landscape of its journal acquisitions from a model that has been traditionally print to one that is primarily electronic. Alongside this transition, the library also added a just-in-time element to its previous just-in-case-only model. During this presentation, participants will have a window into Murray State's experience, including: the driving forces behind its decisions, its selection of Science Direct as a vendor, the implementation process, the outcomes, and where the library sees itself headed in the future.
- Transactional Access: A Publisher's Take
- Mark Rothenbuhler
- John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
- The final presentation will offer the perspective of a major publisher about its experience offering streamlined article access via prepaid tokens. Mark Rothenbuhler from Wiley will discuss the realities and potential benefits of transactional access to journal articles to libraries and publishers, and offer suggestions as to what libraries should be thinking about.
Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group (NRMIG)
The Networked Resources and Metadata Interest Group (NRMIG) would like to announce their sponsored programs at ALA Annual 2009:
Workflow Tools for Automating Metadata Creation and Maintenance
Saturday, July 11th, from 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 noon. Sponsored by ALCTS, co-sponsored by LITA.
As digital projects become less peripheral and more integral to library operations, institutions must begin to address the implications of this change. With the increasing amount of digital content libraries are expected to create and maintain, data curation has emerged as a key objective. Intended for librarians who are involved with the development and management of metadata, this session will present examples of current work and discussion opportunities for collaborative development of tools among institutions.
Speakers: Jenn Riley, Metadata Librarian, Indiana University; Rhonda Marker, Repository Collection Manager, Rutgers University; Ann Caldwell, Coordinator, Digital Production Services, Brown University
Manipulating Metadata: XSLT for Librarians
Friday, July 10th, from 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Cosponsored by LITA.
This full day workshop is designed to introduce participants to XSLT for manipulation of metadata and other sets of data. Instruction will cover the basics of XML and XSLT as well as more advanced commands and control structures. With particular focus on use of XSLT for working with metadata in a library context, this hands-on workshop will allow participants to practice the principles discussed by the instructors.
Speakers: Frances Knudson, Los Alamos National Laboratory; Christine Ruotolo, University of Virginia Library.
Metadata Standards and Applications: A "Cataloging for the 21st Century" Workshop
Thursday, July 9th - Friday, July 10th, from 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. each day
This two-day preconference explores metadata standards and applications for bibliographic control in the 21st century. The goal is to relate what participants already know about library catalog metadata to digital library metadata, preparing them to apply current knowledge to new areas. Although not primarily a "hands on" workshop for learning how to create metadata, this preconference does include exercises, and it provides a solid foundation in current metadata concepts, standards, and issues for digital libraries.
Speakers: Steven Miller, Senior Lecturer, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee; Jennifer Baxmeyer (formerly Lang), Electronic Resources Cataloging Coordinator, Princeton University Library.
More details of the pre-conference programs are available at: http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/alcts/confevents/upcoming/ala/preconf.cfm
NRMIG Program and Business Meeting:
The NRMIG program and business Meeting will be held at Intercontinental St. Clair on July 12th, Sunday from 8:00 am - 10:00 am.
The title of Metadata Librarian first appeared in the late 1990's in conjunction with developments in information technology and digital library initiatives. Since the title is a relatively new one, the responsibilities and competencies of the position have yet to be clearly defined. This study examined 86 job descriptions for metadata librarian positions and 83 job descriptions for cataloging librarian positions, all posted from 2000 to 2008. The authors focused on three properties common to most of the job descriptions: education, required qualifications, and desired qualifications.
These properties were analyzed, in order to answer following questions: 1. What is the required skill set for a metadata librarian? 2. Are there any changes or differences in job descriptions over time? 3. What are the differences between Metadata Librarians and Cataloging Librarians in terms of competencies and required qualifications?
Speakers: Myung-Ja Han, Assistant Professor, Serials Cataloging, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Patricia Hswe, Project Manager for NDIIPP Partner Projects, Graduate School of Library and Information Science, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
This presentation will then be followed by a managed discussion on library school and continuing education for Metadata Librarians, led by Steven Miller, Senior Lecturer, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, School of Information Studies. Link title

Title: Promoting Best Practices For E-Serials
Time: Saturday, July 11th, 10:30am-12:00pm Location: Chicago Hilton, PDR 4
1. Adam Chandler (Cornell University) - Towards OpenURL Quality Metrics: Initial Findings
- The OpenURL standard is a widely deployed technology to facilitate linking to resources across the library supply chain. At a typical academic library thousands of OpenURL requests are initiated by patrons each week. The problem is, too often these links do not work as expected, leaving patrons frustrated by a lower than desired quality of service. In this presentation I will share early findings from an investigation into the feasibility of creating industry wide metrics for evaluating and comparing the quality of OpenURL implementations across vendors.
2. Peter McCracken (Serials Solution) - KBART Update: A Discussion of the Draft Report on Knowledgebase Data Transfer
- The KBART Draft Report is released and in this session it will be discussed what the draft KBART standard proposes, how this proposal would impact libraries, knowledgebase vendors, content providers, and especially library patrons, how organizations and individuals are responding to the draft standard, and what the next steps are in implementing as much useful change in this area as possible.
3. Regina Reynolds (Library of Congress): Best Practices for Presentation of E-Serials: Hope or Hopeless?
- Many continuing resources librarians have become resigned to practices of aggregators and publishers that complicate or impede accurate and complete cataloging. "They'll never listen, they won't change" is a common cataloger refrain. Nonetheless, working together with publishers and aggregators to develop best practices is gaining momentum and is an activity that is often supported by NISO. This presentation will include examples of problematic current e-serials presentation practices-such as presenting articles originally published under earlier titles under the current title, or printing incorrect ISSN--and describe efforts to develop and promote some best practices.

They had some really good layout artists and designers on the first episodes of Rocky and Bullwinkle.
Here are some images from the first and 2nd episode. I don't who the designer/layout artist is, but he is topnotch.
His drawings have all the classic principles -
Every pose he does of Bullwinkle is different in the details. They all follow the general idea of Bullwinkle-the basic shapes, the basic proportions, yet the artist experiments with the specifics in every single pose.
You can describe Bullwinkle's designs in general terms-with adjectives.
He is tall and thin
He has a long neck
short skinny legs
knobby knees
A furry peanut shaped torso
His head is made of two shapes, a small rounded cranium and a larger droopy nose and muzzle.
Goofy eyes
The exact dimensions of all these adjectives is not set in stone. A great designer can play with the proportions, angles and specific details and still make the characters recognizable.
There is no tracing of model sheets.
The artist messes around with the specific details to keep everything organic, alive....and artistic.
FUNCTIONAL FIRST, STYLE AND DESIGN 2NDThe variations on the general theme of Bullwinkle are not totally arbitrary either. The artist makes sure his poses are functional first-they tell the story, they show us the emotion of the character, they act and they are perfectly staged so we can tell what's going on.
These variations from "model" are done with extreme control, guided by instinct and taste.
Today, this seeming freedom can be misinterpreted as having no rules. An amateur artist who considers himself a designer ends up drawing anarchic shapes that don't fit together, what we sometimes call "wonky". It's a misunderstanding of the 50s style of design.
Note that the characters evolve from the first episode to the second. The first episode drawings are fun and creative, but by the 2nd, the artist is comfortable with characters and is in "the zone" He now understands them intimately and is able to be a lot freer with the designs and poses.
Totally clear staging and silhouettes.
I love the way they drew Rocky back then too. He's so much more appealing and streamlined than the lumpy disjointed thing he became.The proportions of many famous cartoon characters tend to get evened out with time. They lose fun, spontaneity and life.Yikes!
The mouth animation is really creative and fun in this early stuff.
These 2 close ups of Bullwinkle have completely different proportions, but does the viewer notice?
His nose is turned down above, and up below. Why not?
I love the odd proportions-the tiny hands compared to the giant head. Great designers use strong contrasts in their shapes and sizes.
The shapes in this image are fantastic. So much thought! Look at the way Rocky's eyes are angled apart at the top.
His skull slopes back and the eyes follow that plane.
The interesting angles in his flying cap.
The organic cube.
The keys that splay outward at bottom.
This artist is very observant and creative at the same time.
How cool was Boris?
I also like the thick itchy lines. I wonder what they inked the cells with? It must have been done by an artist too, because it's done with such flair.
I really like this UPA closed eye theory. It's abstract yet still drawn to wrap around the face.
This stuff is pure cartoon candy.
You know who this artist reminds me of?
George Baker. It's a crunchy angular sort of style that still has underlying great drawing principles. I loved the covers of these comics when I was a kid. Still do!
Super crunchy!
Goddamn I like these drawings.
If you gotta do limited animation, use great drawings I always say. They don't cost that much. Just hire real designers and don't step on them.
I recommend this dvd with a big warning:
It has some great drawings here and there.
The Fractured Fairy Tales are generally good design and well animated.
Some of the bumpers are really clever and beautiful
The people who put this out really did a number on the cartoons.
Different voices! - In some cartoons the voices have been changed!
Rerecorded music
The wrong title sequence-it's not the first season title sequence which was really cool.
I can't understand the logic of messing with classic film and TV. Especially when they market it as "original" - "The complete First Season" which is a flat out lie.
If they know that collectors want the films untouched by executives, why do they waste the money changing everything?

jonnal, I will say what I have stated most clearly on other threads. Noon Saturday East Coast U.S. is approximately midnight going into Sunday for the mainland of Asia. It obviously can't also be noon Saturday.
Oh guys--this was supposed to be spoiler free till Sat night... I just came in to get the links....
Okay guys--heads up! New rule! We have an unusual situation here in that some of you are able to see the episode before the ones of us here in the US have any way to grab it. So we are going to ask your cooperation in not spoiling the episode for those of us who can't see it immediately. And yes, I spoiled a lot of the episodes and yes this is a spoiler thread but still I like a little surprise! So after talking it over with puddin, we are going to try a 48 hour rule to protect the innocent. So until 9PM EST on the Saturday following the Thursday episodes--please use spoiler bars for any "spoilery" info from the latest show--especially who comes in first and who is eliminated. To do that here --highlight the text that needs spoiler bars-- choose CHANGE COLOR from the drop down box above--and when you get this[ color=black][ /color] delete black and type in white which essentially makes the post invisible--so say spoilers or something so we don't think it is empty!After that it will be up to us to stay out of the thread if we haven't seen it--but hopefully that will give us time to find a way to watch each week--so if you have a link--any link--please PM me and I'll distribute it around, okay? Thanks everybody!!

CIS Progress in Unsealing Surveillance Records
By Jennifer Granick and Riana Pfefferkorn on May 9, 2017 at 10:57 am
In September 2016, we filed a Petition in the Northern District of California (the federal district court for the Bay Area and much of Northern California) asking the court to unseal years' worth of surveillance matters filed there. We had our first hearing before the court on May 4.
Points of Consensus on Rule 41
By Marshall Erwin and Jennifer Granick on November 17, 2016 at 4:44 pm
Senator Chris Coons, Democrat from Delaware, offered a bill today that would delay implementation of proposed changes to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 41 for six months.

Stanford Researchers Seek Court Documents Ordering Companies to Help Government Defeat Encryption
By Jennifer Granick and Riana Pfefferkorn on September 29, 2016 at 9:56 am
Researchers at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society (CIS) filed a petition yesterday seeking to unseal judicial records in San Francisco federal district court. Their goal is to reveal how the federal government uses U.S. law to obligate smartphone manufacturers and Internet companies to decrypt private user data, turn over encryption keys, or otherwise assist law enforcement with digital surveillance.
Reflections on the FBI's Attempt to Dragoon Apple Into Subverting iPhone Security
By Jennifer Granick on February 24, 2016 at 11:37 am
On Monday, I wrote a post for Just Security where I reflected on last week's news concerning the FBI's attempts to coerce Apple into creating a forensic bypass to the iPhone passcode lockout. I wrote that we live in a software-defined world. In 2000, Lawrence Lessig wrote that Code is Law — the software and hardware that comprise cyberspace are powerful regulators that can either protect or threaten liberty. A few years ago, Mark Andreessen wrote that software was eating the world, pointing to a trend that is hockey sticking today. Software is redefining everything, even national defense.
Motion to Unseal Court Records Concerning US DOJ Motion to Compel Facebook
Encryption helps human rights workers, activists, journalists, financial institutions, innovative businesses, and governments protect the confidentiality, integrity, and economic value of their activities. However, strong encryption may mean that governments cannot make sense of data they would otherwise be able to lawfully access in a criminal or intelligence investigation.
In Re: Petition of Jennifer Granick and Riana Pfefferkorn
Jennifer Granick and Riana Pfefferkorn are petitioning the federal court for the Northern District of California to unseal years' worth of sealed surveillance matters filed in that court.
U.S. v. Auernheimer
Arguing that a defendant's conviction for website hacking should be overturned because legitimate, highly valuable security and privacy research commonly employs techniques that are essentially identical to what the defendant did and that such independent research is of great value to academics, government regulators and the public even when – often especially when — conducted without a website owner's permission.
Apple v. FBI
Arguing that if the court should not compel Apple to create software to enable unlocking and search of the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone, it will jeopardize digital and personal security more generally.
Shloss v. Estate of Joyce
After the Estate of James Joyce refused to allow a scholar to quote Joyce in her book, we successfully defended her right under the fair use doctrine to use the quotes she needed to illustrate her scholarship. After we prevailed in the case, the Estate paid $240,000 of our client's legal fees.

Trump Twitter takedown brings more grief for Silicon Valley
""There's always been employees who have misused the keys," said ACLU surveillance and cybersecurity counsel Jennifer Granick. She pointed to the tension among some who would prefer that tech platforms censor users' content, whether that's policing Russian-planted accounts and ads or kicking Trump off Twitter for what they perceive as hate speech. "They're under extreme pressure from Congress," she said."
Facebook and Senate Panel Scuffle Over Russia Investigation
""Congress has subpoena power, of course," says Al Gidari, the director of privacy at Stanford Law School's Center for Internet and Society, who previously represented several big tech companies in national security cases.
Did the Department of Justice Request Detailed Information About All Visitors to an Anti-Trump Website?
"Albert Gidari, Director of Privacy for the Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School, told us he agrees with the EFF's argument:
Asking for metadata on everyone that visits a particular website implicates more than just the particularity required by the 4th Amendment. It implicates the 1st Amendment rights of anyone that visited the site.
Cybersecurity for the travelling scientist
"It can be tempting to try to hide information or use technological tricks such as 'duress passwords' that, if used instead of the genuine one, unlock the device but keep a portion of the data hidden and encrypted. But Jennifer Granick, who studies cybersecurity law at Stanford University in California, warns against such strategies. "You don't want to lie to a government agent. That can be a crime." And border guards are not likely to be sympathetic to the argument that a researcher has a legal duty to prevent anyone from seeing confidential data.

MegaUpload: Guilty or Not Guilty? (Past Event)
On January 19, 2012, Kim DotCom was arrested in a dramatic raid after being indicted on federal criminal charges that he knew that his website, MegaUpload, was a haven of piracy and counterfeiting. In the days that followed, the media commented on the presumed guilt of MegaUpload. In this debate, Jim argues that the law and evidence clearly point to MegaUpload's officers being found guilty, while Jennifer will argue that the MegaUpload case is built on unprecedented and wrongheaded interpretations of copyright law, and thus the principles should be found not guilty.
Should the Wall of Sheep Be Illegal? A Debate Over Whether and How Open WiFi Sniffing Should Be Regulated (Past Event)
Prompted by the Google Street View WiFi sniffing scandal, the question of whether and how the law regulates interception of unencrypted wireless communications has become a hot topic in the courts, in the halls of the FCC, on Capitol Hill, and in the security community. Are open WiFi communications protected by federal wiretap law, unprotected, or some strange mix of the two? (Surprise: it may be the last one, so you'll want to come learn the line between what's probably illegal sniffing and what's probably not.)
Smashing the Future for Fun and Profit (Past Event)
Has it really been 15 years? Time really flies when keeping up with Moore's law is the measure. In 1997, Jeff Moss held the very first Black Hat. He gathered together some of the best hackers and security minds of the time to discuss the current state of the hack. A unique and neutral field was created in which the security community--private, public, and independent practitioners alike—could come together and exchange research, theories, and experiences with no vendor influences. That idea seems to have caught on. Jeff knew that Black Hat could serve the community best if it concentrated on finding research by some of the brightest minds of the day, and he had an uncanny knack for finding them.
American Spies
May 19, 2017
If you attended a recent march to protest, wrote a check to the ACLU, or recently visited a politically leaning website, consider yourself an activist, says Stanford legal scholar Granick. Not only might the government be watching you, but your digital footprint could end up being visible to people and organizations you never imagined would care. Know your risks and take safety precautions, advises Granick, or don't be surprised at the troubling outcome.

Mozilla April Speaker Series: American Spies: Modern Surveillance and What We Can Do Speaker: Jennifer Granick
April 26, 2017
Intelligence agencies in the U.S. (aka the American Spies) are exceedingly aggressive, pushing and sometimes bursting through the technological, legal and political boundaries of lawful surveillance.
How Many Times Has the Government Spied on You Today?
February 27, 2017
The Snowden revelations, while dramatic, have done little to amp up public concern about personal surveillance.
After all, thanks to technology, electronic spying is cheap — so cheap the government can't afford not to do it.
'American Spies' author Jennifer Granick on privacy in the age of surveillance
February 21, 2017
The internet makes access to information incredibly easy, and we normally see that as a good thing. But what if the information being accessed is details of our private lives? And what if the person accessing them is a government intelligence agency? This week we speak with Jennifer Granick, author of "American Spies" and director of civil liberties at the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, about the quest for privacy in the age of surveillance.

Friday, November 2, 2012 by Beau Rosser
Like a lot of people, we received our iPad minis in the office today. A lot of customers have been asking when or if we are planning on releasing a case for the iPad mini. In short, yes, we are.
But, it's a tad bit more complicated than that.
Cyber Acoustics Makes a Splash in Mexico
Tuesday, August 7, 2012 by cyberacoustics
The 22nd Annual Feria de la Computacion ran from August 2 to 5 in Mexico City, and is the largest consumer-selling show in all of Latin America, with 100,000 sq. ft. of exhibitor space and more than 200,000 attendees looking for great deals on leading technology brands. CA's Latin America Sales Manager, Lou Viveros, was kind enough to send us some great pictures.
2012 marked the first year that Cyber Acoustics participated in this great event in partnership with one of the show's biggest exhibitors, SuperMultiComputadoras.
Many thanks to Isaac Dabbah and his great team at SuperMultiComputadoras!
Check out the CA stacks!
The launch of CA-3810 and CA-3908 drew huge crowds, which we were able to handle thanks to the great efforts of Nora Perez and Neidy Martinez from SeraTec, the newest Cyber Acoustics distributor in Mexico.
Sandra Becerril and the entire Market Solutions team in Mexico went non-stop to make Cyber Acoustics' first Feria de la Computacion a SuperMultiSuccess!
Gracias, Mexico! Hasta luego!
Ouya Says "Booyah" to Xbox, Playstation, and Wii
Thursday, July 12, 2012 by cyberacoustics
Haven't heard about Ouya? Well, maybe that's because it doesn't technically exist yet. It's a silver and black cube that's been designed to shake up the console gaming market. How do I know this? Ouya, launched on Kickstarter a few days ago, has already raised over $4 million dollars with over 30,000 pledges—in fact, it was the fastest kickstarter project to reach $1 million. So what, exactly, is Ouya?

E3 2012 – Did I Miss Something?
Friday, June 8, 2012 by cyberacoustics
Now granted I don't spend a lot time at E3, but I had high expectations to see what emerging mobile gaming options would be on display. I was deeply disappointed on the lack there of. How many friends do you know that are not walking around with a smartphone (otherwise known as super powered portable computer) in their pockets regularly? Basically, it's a huge untapped market that the big boys appear to be treating as a door-to-door salesman knocking on your front door.
E3 2012: A Preview
Thursday, May 24, 2012 by cyberacoustics
You might think summer begins with Memorial Day, but for me, summer doesn't start until my annual pilgrimage to LA during the first week of June. I get to leave the cool, wet weather of the northwest for some much needed warmth and sunshine. But this isn't a vacation, it's far better than that...it's E3 2012.
A New Brand of Summer Blockbuster
Friday, May 11, 2012 by cyberacoustics
Just when you think computer games are dead, you might want to think again. Sure, your kids might be talking about this summer's blockbuster movie sequels like The Dark Knight Rises and The Bourne Legacy, but they might not know of the new Blizzard sequel: Diablo III.
Kickstarter: Support Grassroots Endeavors
Tuesday, April 24, 2012 by cyberacoustics
Every day, I visit some of my favorite sites to find out what's new and exciting in the technology world. You know the ones: Mashable, Engadget, Mac Rumors, etc. Lately, I've been seeing more and more mentions of a startup company asking for funding to launch their idea. Recently, Pebble, a customizable watch for iPhone and Android, was seeking $100K in funding and received over $5 million. This may seem like an anomaly, but think about it. If you have an idea, wouldn't it be great to be able to pitch it to the world? Who knows—you may even hit the jackpot.
Trading Cards: Who's Laughing Now?
Friday, April 20, 2012 by cyberacoustics
Okay, I'll admit it: back in the 90s I, along with my son, got caught up in the Pokemon craze. It was fun, and brought back memories of when I was kid, collecting baseball and football trading cards. We all know what happens to them when you grow up and move away, though—they hit the yard sale circuit. Bye bye, Mickey Mantle. I was determined that this was not going to happen again with my son, so I made a plan. You might say I went a little overboard.

IP address ranges, or netblocks, are groups of related IP addresses. They are usually represented as a base IP address, followed by a slash, and then a netmask which represents how many IP addresses are contained within the netblock. This format is known as CIDR. You'll also sometimes see netblocks given as a start ip address, and an end ip address, or an ip address range.
Traffic works its way around the internet based on the routing table, which contains a list of networks and their associated netblocks.
