The Sailing Life Where Do Old Computers Go When They Die? Rite of Spring Unites Oldtimers and newcomers over Horses and Food
The Sailing Life
Volvo or not, Annapolitan Jan Majer's heart is set on racing
by Alice Snively
The blood of Jan Majer [say Yan Mayer] may be a tad saltier than the average 25-year-old American. Notices about him said he'd been sailing for 15 years. That meant he started sailing when he was about 10, right?
"Actually I've been sailing since I was about four months old," said Mayer, setting the record straight. "I've been a live-aboard most of my life." The Annapolis native lived aboard with his parents at Solomons for several years before returning to Annapolis, which remains his home port. Neither parent worked on the water. "Both had real jobs in real offices," he said.
So salty is Majer that he was chosen from more than 5,000 young American sailors to compete for a crew position in the 2005-2006 Volvo Ocean Race. The top two Americans would join two sailors each from Brazil, the Netherlands and "the rest of the world" in crewing on one of two of Chicago-based LaSalle Bank's Volvo race boats, the one set aside for upcoming sailors. The crew will round out with four seasoned professional sailors.
Competing in the Volvo Ocean Race "was something I really wanted to do, and the time seemed right," Majer said. "I felt I was ready to try for it."

America's police officers are under attack, which was proven again on Sunday morning when a thug who was pulled over after running a red light decided to assault the officer. But it's what happened after the assault that caught him off guard.
Polk County Sheriff's Deputy Mike Walsh, a Florida motorcycle officer, was on patrol at an intersection when Corey Johnson blew through a stop sign and nearly smashed into Walsh while he was sitting on his bike.
Walsh gave chase and, after a few miles, got the reckless driver to pull over. Johnson jumped out of the vehicle, slammed Walsh on the ground and launched a vicious physical assault on the deputy, which probably would have ended in tragedy if it weren't for three heroes who were sick and tired of seeing police officers targeted by thugs.

George Cooper, Antonio Velazquez, and Christopher Carver all witnessed Johnson attack Walsh. Toward the end of the struggle, the thug even went for the deputy's pistol, but the three brave men rushed Johnson with brute force and took him to the ground, where they held him until Walsh's backup arrived to make the arrest.
What these anti-cop thugs haven't taken into consideration is that the law-abiding public is sick and tired of America's police officers being targeted, which is at least partly a result of the Black Lives Matter movement.

"I wasn't going to let him beat that officer. Because hey, he is a man just like I am. He has children, he has a wife and a family. I want him to go home to his family like I go home to my family," Cooper said (H/T Mad World News).
We salute these three courageous men for stepping in and doing the right thing. America needs more citizens just like them.

Claudia...I loved her on Apprentice...I am NOT sure why she is friends with Kenya..but I like her..she is nice and classy in her attitude..and frankly Nene...why on earth do women feel the need to call eachother whores whenever they are mad? Grow up! If you are...well ok...but a lot of women aren't..and more men are. And yeah Nene...was kind of a whore to begin with..and still goes in sexual stuff...Which is gross..and would be gross from anyone. Grow up Nene. Claudia was right...why can't Nene ever accept it when anyone calls her out..and Claudia did it first in a nice way!3 years ago

if i was wearing some pearls they would be clutched right now!!
i was iffy about claudia but i loved that she stood up to nene
@bluebaby... All I'm saying is she wasn't trying to be racist. She was trying to insult her so if you think it's racist coming from a black woman then you're wrong!! I am biracial as well and I feel like if a woman said that to me during a heated argument like that, I would treat it like the word "bitch" We get the best of both worlds I feel. FYI.. Black people CAN NOT be Racist!! Racism comes with power!4 years ago

MESSSSSSSSSSSSSY with a side a SHADE chile! Are these grown women? Phaedra and Nene came in with the ill vibes....I used to love Phaedra cause of the way she carried herself but she's just gutter. They're both two old haggard bitter women who seem to have it all but really don't have anything or else they'd know how to uplift their girlfriends instead or berate them smh......team Claudia!4 years ago

Am I watching the Bad Girls Club?? Grown women acting like trashy teens4 years ago
First of all @guiltypleasures560 turn off the CAPLOCKS! thats just annoying. Secondly halfbreed is a term used for dogs and means having one purebred parent, lastly I have been called a half breed before and it WAS meant in a racist way just like Nene meant it, if not why not use the CORRECT term of Bi-racial and why is it always used in an aggressive way. I'd love to see someone nicely ask me if I was a half breed, they wouldn't because ppl know EXACTLY what it means, and as I am BI-RACIAL I am telling you its offencive. Why do you think everyone at the able looked shocked when Nene said it?4 years ago
Now on to more interesting issues,
@sayitisntso lol I never thought she could be in the running for favorite either lol, I think the other women are just irritating me so much that its left no choice but to push Kendra forward and to being liked, I also think i helpd that Claudia is one of her friends.
@AjMegastar I've not gone over to the darkside just yet lol im just liking Keya more this season and if Nene keeps acting this way then . . . ugh she just need to stop flip flopping, one second she made up with these girls the next second she acting bitchy towards them its very annoying, she's making herself look bad and thats annoying me more then anything, she has to be acting this way for the show as Nene is not a fool and she must realise how she's coming across. Claudias read was so on point! I cant remember a time if ever I have seen Nene so lost for words, hahaha that was funny seeing her crab at straws and throw the clit comment out there lol.
I HATE HOW EVERYONE STARTS USING WORDS LIKE "READ" AND "SHADE" ON EVERY COMMENT!! BE YOURSELF FOR A WHILE.. LOL4 years ago
ALL OF YOU GETTING PISSED ABOUT T HE HALF BREED COMMENT SHUT UP!!!! ONE GIRL SAID HOW WOULD SHE LIKE TO BE CALLED NIG** ? HALF BREED MEANS BIRACIAL! WHO EVER CALLS NENE A NI**A THAT IS NOT BIRACIAL OR BLACK IS RACIST. IN THIS CASE HALF BREED MEANS CLAUDIA HAS A LITTLE OF NENE IN HER TOO. I GET WHAT SHE MEANT. I DONT HAVE TO BE AFRICAN AMERICAN TO KNOW WHAT NENE MEANT. THERE WAS NO RACISM TOWARDS HER. IT WAS MERELY LIKE YOU LITTLE PRETTY BLACK LOOKING GIR THAT GETS THE BENEFITS OF THE "GOOD HAIR."

Laaaaaawwwwwddd... This episode, chil'... They had me over here WEAK!4 years ago
Phaedra didn't have to keep throwing shade at that poor thang, like that. Why was she so bothered?? I guess it's normal that Phaedra will throw shade. Besides Kandi, she's thrown shade at every single person on the show, especially the new people. Don't forget that Porsha just got a pass, last season. And it was towards the END of the season...lmao I think Demetria should've gone ahead and thrown a little shade back at her. Once Phaedra sees you can dish as well as take, she'll leave you alone. You can't let shade perturb you, like that! Once you start reading, it gets messy. That's where Demetria should've NOT listened to Kenya. 1) Wrong place/time to discuss it, which Kenya is infamous for. 2) She admitted that she was bothered. 3) She's new to the group, let her feel the other ladies out before she goes in headstrong. Some battles aren't worth fighting. Taking sides when you really don't know anyone will only hurt you. I just think that whole ordeal could've been avoided if Ms Messy would've been ignored.
LET'S GET DOWN TO THE NITTY AND THE GRITTY! The read of the season award goes to...*drum roll*...Claudia! That bitch went ALL the way in. Claudia got Nene's life Together, chil'. Nene's jaw is still sliding across that damn floor! I'm forever team Nene, but hunty... Claudia had me too damn weak! Nene tried to bring out that NaeNae, but NaeNae couldn't handle Claudia. NaeNae just got really vulgar and ignit. Claudia kept her cool, which is KEY to a good read. My hat's off to you, Claudia. There definitely ain't gon' be no friendship, there! lmao!
Side note: Demetria is paying for this entire trip? Roger Bobb got it like that to be sending these hoes he doesn't even know to another country and putting them up for a few days?? Well, damn...

@bluebaby i thought i would never see the day that you would call Kenya a potential favourite... too funny!!! But i totally agree with your mixed breed comment.... someone definitely needs to address Nene about that... dont know how thats an insult as biracial people tend to be quite exceptional looking... just saying :-)4 years ago
Bahahaha this episode was hilarious! Demetria's assistant calling Phaedra late, old, and dry DID ME IN! I'm sorry, I've been rooting for Phaedra all season but she was being such a hater this episode! Like I understand you're going through some things but she was just old and bitter, fussing about everything. Demetria is such a sweetheart and handled that better than I would!4 years ago
I really hope these rumors I've heard about Porsha being fired are false. The show needs more of her. She's beautiful and fun in a kind of light-hearted, bimbo way. This storyline about the "married African man" is also super interesting and she's always in entertaining (*ahem* Cordell*) relationships.
Anyways, great episode, great season! I hope all of these girls stay- but I could honestly do without Phaedra. She's just been odd and incoherent and rambling all season. I think all the weight she puts on herself to be an invulnerable, impenetrable "strong black woman" is finally getting to her. And that's coming from another strong, black, woman. :/
Wow! Now this was a good episode. It was all so horrible but good to watch at the same time lol. I must say, NeNe and Phaedra are quite hilarious when they are together...such an odd pair seeing that they never really got along the last few seasons. The shade Phaedra threw at Demetria's stylist was funny and Nene impersonation of it was even funnier.4 years ago
Claudia vs Nene was quite crazy and it all came out of nowhere. It's very telling that Nene is highly bothered by Claudia otherwise she wouldn't allow this woman to break her out of character, however Nene doesn't really have character. Nene bottles up too much negativity and its a shame to see. Next week episode should be a good one...let the fighting continue.
Nene is the only "half-breed" on this show as far as I'm concerned. Half-human, half-moose! I'm still unsure about Claudia but the fact that she didn't fly over the table or even raise her voice at Nene when she used that racial slur with her tells me a whole lot about her. Much respect Claudia. You are a better woman than me!4 years ago
I'm seeing a lot of comments expressing dislike of NeNE, Phae and Porscha... It's totally obvious that they are rude and pretentious characters with negative attitudes. Also it's true the "shade" they constantly throw comes off as catty jealousy. That being said THEY ARE HILARIOUS!! The show NEEDS their antics! If I wanted to see a bunch of nice "basic bitches" being polite and having friendly polite fun conversations I'd just watch real people in real life! Just face it: MEAN BITCHY females are funny and entertaining to watch. If they're smart queen bee wannabes then they're just that much more hilarious. Nene is "the Queen of Read", the show just wouldn't be the same without her reading everyone and situation she's around (sh** talkin and clowning on folks without missing a beat, not all can keep up so they're intimidated). And it's fun seeing Phaedra throw more subtle "shade", her graceful arrogance combined with her sharp lawyer mouth crack me up! Porsha is spoiled, pretty, young shallow bimbo barbie girl with an attitude, YES HUNTY! Remember, Dumb & fun are the perfect combination for entertainment (I don't think she's as dumb as most ppl think). SO ALL YOU basic bitches WHO DON'T LIKE #TEAM MEAN NEEDS TO REALIZE THEY MAKE THE SHOW so stfu! Girl bye! Dummies. SIDE NOTE: I'm a "half breed" and not offended cause I'mean smart and perceptive to know what NENE meant by that remark. She was implying that being bi-racial was the only thing Claudia had going for her was her (good hair, etc)4 years ago

Kenya, Cynthia and Claudia are so much smarter than all of these other ladies.
I dont get why she being such a angry bitch, well actually maybe its because of her personal situation and she's just taking it out on the new girl.4 years ago
It's crazy how roles are reversing now, I'm starting to dislike all my favorites ladies and like all the ones I couldn't stand (Kenya).
Kenya made me crack up when she and Claudia went to the foot doctor lol, and Claudia was pretty kool about laughing about it too, Claudia is definitely a favorite housewive now, she funny, bubbly, kind and stunning, good combo lol, oh and she can stick up for herself! the way she called Nene out was brilliant!
Someone on the show needs to call Nene out for her racist half breed comment, if someone called Nene or any of the black women the N-Word there would be outrage. As for Phaedra4 years ago
lotusflower111 claps to you!!!! I have the exact same opinion; nee is not pretty, is not that inteligent and has not done nothing that fabulous that the others have not done also....who does she thik she is??? And she looks like a old trans..a bad one!!!4 years ago
At this point it does look like team ugly against team beauty. Nene and Phaedra are so jealous of the good looking ones. If I looked like them, I would be a little jealous too. But Claudia got the crown here. She held Nene down and that is why Nene answered with those clit and sleep around comments. When she can't answer, she goes straight for defamation. And who would be jealous of Nene's life? Being married to Greg and looking like an ugly tranny... Porsha is just sleeping with a married man to get purses and cars. Btw, look a Kim Z, she got everything being a mistress, so, it doesn't take much to sleep with a guy who has to spoil you because you are his little secret. I don't lie Porsha, she is so vain and ignorant. She is pretty, though, but when you are a mistress, it doesn't really matter how you look. Cynthia, Kenya and Claudia are much prettier than Porsha and by far smarter as well.4 years ago

Yup yup I certainly heard her saying she was half bred and my jaw literally dropped, how dare she!! Nay Nay you really earned my reference of looking like the donkey in Shrek-. Disgusting human being, absolutely threatened by Kenya and now Claudia- bitch your thrown and reign as HBIC is being threatened and you go and hit below the belt.4 years ago
You hit it on the head, Shady Phaekdra is still stuck in the 50's and wishes she was a Southern Belle, you are a Southern Disgrace and a Southern Spoiled Brat with your bratty behavior, run Apollo run, don't look back!!
Fakedra is so disgusting. At least she has a ring HAHAHA chile your husband is in jail.4 years ago
NeNe with her halfbreed comment that was so uncalled for. Is being a half breed a wrong thing that she uses it as an insult?
She feels threatened by Kenya because she keeps making comments about her.
Waste of space they are.
"BUt I have a ring..." I honestly truly feel sorry for Phaedra. That dumb ho is still living in 1965 when marriage was considered a status thing. This is how you KNOW this woman has zero self-esteem. She's one of those who could care less who she married as long as got married. It's pathetic and disgusting.4 years ago
Did y'all hear Nene refer to Claudia as a half-breed? So far she's insulted gay people and now she's going after biracial people? Keep it up Nene. Those so called Hollywood jobs are going to dry up real fast...oh wait. <sips tea>
Man Phaedra is so damn insecure, she has to pounce on a Demetria like that? She can't handle a woman younger and prettier than her, huh? Pathetic.4 years ago

I rarely make fun of peoples looks, I've called Nay Nay a moose a couple of times because she is a moose with her overbearing boorish behavior, but this next one warrants it; Nay Nay reminds me of the donkey in Shrek. LOL.4 years ago
Demetria has a booming strong voice, wow I wasn't expecting that to come out of her, she is great, well done!! Look everybody shady Phae Phae is playing the attorney on TV now, her going in on and quizzing Demetria was really bossy, nosy and conniving of her. Clearly her life didn't go as she planned and she is taking it out on the world- the jilted angry woman. Judging by her actions, it was abundantly clear that she is threatened by Demetria and jealous. That crack and vaginal shit was disgusting of a woman of her stature; hahahahaha oops I forgot shady Phae has a crooked past, so she has no stature, how she won that award puzzles the mind. And then she tells Demi that she got it right this time about her outfit, errm Phae you looked like a school marm with your pearl necklace, blazer and glasses dear- someone is definitely pea green with envy.
Porsha's sugar daddy has her hooked uppp, an 80K bag and Rolls to boot! You go girl, you must have some tricks up your sleeve! She is a far cry of the Porsha in her first season, she got arrested again- Kordell is probably thanking his lucky stars he got out of that marriage easy, she is nothing short of a ditzy kept woman- err child, being the second woman in a marriage. She doesn't seem the least bit ashamed of being a sugar baby. She had to sell the Rolls he bought her because sugar daddy's wife found out and he stopped funding her and now she is out of pocket and sold the Rolls. Do you all remember Porsha screaming indignantly at Kenya that she'll never know the conviction of a wife? Pahahahaha Porsha your big statements landed you in shit water, while you lambasted Kenya with every slur under the sun, you lost your own husband, integrity and became a trophy to some other woman's husband tsk tsk. The girl who wouldn't attend strip clubs is looking like a hooker in all her social media pics, if only your great grandfather could see you now.
OMG Kenya you are giving life with that comment, "What's next. blind toupee's for the rest of them?" HAHAHAHAHA :-))) She is the BOMBDOTCOM. Claudia: "Nene's got the George Washington wig, she is one of our founding fathers of shadiness..." Wha wha what?!!! OMG what a classic, Claudia you are frigging awesome! She left NeNe in ruins, so Nene resorted to trashy comebacks. Go Claudia, I hope they make you a permanent housewife.

James's "Cleveland Steamer" Aristocrats Joke
A family walks into a talent agency. It's a father, mother, son, daughter and dog. The father says to the talent agent, "We have a really amazing act. You should represent us."
The agent says, "Sorry, I don't represent family acts. They're a little too cute."
The mother says, "Sir, if you just see our act, we know you would want to represent us."
The agent says, "OK. OK. I'll take a look."

|Rate This Joke
The father and daughter take off their clothes and start the father starts to anal the daughter. At this point the son takes off his clothes and starts to fuck the daughter. Than the mother lays down with her head under the boy's legs and the dog comes over and starts to orally pleasure the mom. The son, while he is fucking the daughter, takes a shit on the mother's chest. At the point when all the people in the family are close to climax, they all lay down and the dog comes over and helps each one of them reach climax.
For the longest time, the agent just sits in silence. Finally, he manages, "That's a hell of an act. What do you call it?"
And the father says, "The Aristocrats!"

Matt Jansen wants his Chorley side to embrace the togetherness and team spirit after a last gasp victory away at Worcester City.
Chorley looked all set to take a point from Aggborough after Daniel Nti equalised for Worcester in the 76th minute.
But super sub Lewis Guy was the Chorley hero as his 89th minute tap in at the back post sealed a valuable three points.
The Magpies are without a midweek fixture as they prepare themselves for a Bank Holiday double header.
On Saturday they welcome Harrogate Town before travelling to Stalybridge Celtic on Monday.
Boss Jansen said: "The lads kept going to the end and that's what I am asking them to do all the time.
"We want togetherness, we want a great team spirit and I want a great dressing room.
"I want the lads to be together and go out onto the pitch and put in a performance.
"Sometimes you'll have the odd one who isn't playing well, but if they dig each other out and look after each other, then we'll get more results than we don't.
"Harrogate are an in-form team, they've spent a lot of money.
"But we will take the same attitude, if we cut out the minor issues then I'm sure we will be fine for Harrogate."
Kick-off on Saturday at Victory Park is 3pm as is Monday's trip to Stalybridge.
l Chorley FC Under-18s made it two wins on the spin, thrashing AFC Blackpool 7-2.
The young Magpies put in a first half to remember running in seven goals and conceding just one.
More than 70 fans turned out to show their support at Bishop Rawstorne, Croston.
Hot shot Jordan Darr was the star man scoring four goals.
Callum Darcy bagged a brace whilst there was another goal for Lewis Kelsall.
The victory built on last week's impressive win over a young Chester FC side.

Semi driver arrested in deadly crash at Snoqualmie Pass
SNOQUALMIE PASS, Wash. - Two people were killed and five were injured Friday morning in a serious crash involving eight vehicles that closed westbound Interstate 90 near Snoqualmie Pass for several hours, the Washington State Patrol reports.
The driver of one of the semi trucks involved in the crash was later arrested for investigation of vehicular homicide.
Troopers responded at about 6:20 a.m. after receiving reports of a major collision at the scene, on the state's primary east-west route over the Cascade Mountains.
Arriving at the scene, they found two semi-trucks and six other vehicles had crashed. One of the semi rigs was an empty commercial car hauler.
"From jersey barrier to jersey across the road like a barricade totally across the road," said witness Keith Cannon.
Two people were pronounced dead at the scene. Both were in the same passenger car. Five others were taken to Overlake Medical Center by ambulance for treatment of injuries.
Trooper Rick Johnson said later Friday morning their investigation has led them to arrest the driver of the car hauler for investigation of vehicular homicide. He was believed to be impaired at the time of the crash, state troopers said.
"We had a drug recognition expert interview and evaluate this driver, and through that evaluation it led to calling for a blood warrant and he was placed in custody for investigation of vehicular homicide," Johnson said.
Troopers say they believe the driver of the car carrier was traveling west and lost control before veering across all lanes of traffic and coming to rest in the roadway. This caused a chain-reaction crash that completely blocked all westbound lanes of the freeway.
Truck driver Dan Nelson said he saw the car hauler pass him on the east side of the pass.
"He passed me going way too fast," Nelson said. "And there's a lot of other guys out here who said the same thing."
KOMO News video footage from the scene showed one smaller car completely smashed between larger vehicles. Troopers placed a yellow tarp over the car.
A State Patrol photo also showed a pickup truck on its top against the side of a semi trailer.
Seventeen miles of the freeway were closed for much of the day between Milepost 54 and the Easton exit for the investigation and cleanup. State transportation officials were able to reopen the lanes just after 3 p.m.
WSDOT officials say this closure marks more than 50 this winter season. WSDOT says blame record snow in December which means more avalanche control work, more closures and more accidents like the deadly crash that happened Friday.

PLOTTING TREES + DATA is difficult. @DrKatHolt developed plotTree (R and Python scripts) to visualize associated data with trees, e.g. heatmap, horizontal bar etc.
I reproduced the examples presented in the plotTree repo using ggtree. Source code is freely available in https://github.com/GuangchuangYu/plotTree-ggtree.
Here are the outputs produced by

It can be very easy to produce a circular/fan layout version, and the tree was used to generate the ggtree hex sticker.
General solution with
ggtree provide the
facet_plot function which can be used to associate different types of data to the tree. With
ggtree we can associate more data (can be different types) and combine them freely.

New Website
I finally got my website set up! I have been working on it for a couple days and I'm quite happy with the way that it has turned out. There are a few things that I'd still like to add, but it's pretty much done. If you'd like to see a portfolio of my work I suggest you check out my website. My website address is: http://www.angelabishopart.com

Red Rose
Here is my first watercolor ACEO for Etsy. All the others I've done were delivered to the gallery this past weekend. Now I'm working on some for my website. I think it's important to have a range of pieces (and different prices) available for people to choose from.
This little paintings are highly collectible and affordable original pieces of art. "Red Rose" was completed on 140lb watercolor paper. This mini painting is listed for $20. I also have acid free white mat boards available for them. They're 8 by 10 with an opening of 2 1/2 by 3 1/2. These fit very easily in an 8 by 10 frame.
Have a lovely day!

Hiding Spot
This kitty was so much fun to paint. I have to thank Nancy Rose again for allowing me to use her photo as a reference. I'm not sure I did the photo justice, but it was fun trying. :)
This painting was completed on pastelbord with mostly pastel pencils. It is available in my Etsy shop for $50 and free shipping.

Here is a photo of two of the little watercolor paintings that I framed and hung in the gallery. I really like the way these look framed like this.
I spent the day at the gallery yesterday and I am feeling very inspired. Now that my hand is healed I'm looking forward to spending more time in the studio painting.
I hope you had a nice weekend.

Open Tulip & 200th Post
Ah, it feels so good to be painting again! I was worried that my hand wouldn't heal properly and that I would need surgery. It's not 100% healed, but I am able to write and paint so I am happy. :) And this is my 200th post! Blogging has been a great way for me to share my art with everyone and to receive feedback as well.
I actually started this painting before I hurt my hand and it was difficult to get back to it after almost 2 weeks. I usually like to finish a piece within a day or two so this was a bit of a struggle to get back into, but I'm pleased with the way it turned out. I originally began this painting thinking that it would end up in the gallery. I'm not sure quite yet. Have to see how it will look framed. I used all Winsor and Newton paints on 140lb cold press paper.
Have a nice afternoon!

New Creative Endeavor - Writing
Since I hurt my hand and have not been able to paint, I've been thinking about something that I've always been interested in, writing. I have always been a reader and I used to write stories all the time when I was a kid, just for fun. As I got older I began to write poetry. I tried to dig out some of my old poems and stories but only found a couple. I wanted to share them with you but the poem is about love and is kind of personal, and the story I wrote when I was in elementary school. It's called, "The Haunted House." It was terribly written but it brought back the love I had for story telling.
I actually have to thank the person who told me that my artwork has no emotion because their comment is what got me thinking. I was admiring an illustration done by an artist I really respect and I had an intense emotional response to it. I began thinking how I wished my work could have that kind of impact on others. When I go into the studio in the morning I think, "What will I paint today?" It's more about creating a pretty picture than anything, but I still consider it an emotional outpouring because I love it.
Anyway, I was thinking first about illustration and then I began thinking about writing. I think as creative beings we're always trying to find new ways to express ourselves. I picked up some reference material on illustrating children's books a few years ago because it was an interest of mine but never looked at it. I've let the fear of failure keep me from trying many things. I've decided that I have to at least try it because I will never forgive myself if I don't.
There are so many reasons why I am interested in writing and illustrating children's books. First, I don't think children read enough today with all the video games and other electronic means of entertainment. Secondly, I think children can learn a great deal of life lessons from books. I so enjoyed books as a child and I love the thought of creating something that a child can enjoy and learn from at the same time.
Initially I had decided not to share this idea with anyone, except for close family who I knew would be supportive, but then I thought that I had to share it with everyone else because I'm just so excited about it. I know I probably do enough considering I have quilting, photography, decorative painting and fine art, but I'm not going to hold back because I'm already involved in so many other things. I've let people make me feel bad for having so many interests and I realized that that isn't right. People can be great at many things, I've seen it, and that's what gives me encouragement.
I in no way intend on quitting painting, I just plan to work some writing and illustrating in there too. I will certainly share my work with you as I go along. I have so many ideas and I can hardly wait to get started!
I hope you have a great weekend, and happy early Valentine's Day!

Hand Injury

Be Kind
Regarding my painting style, I am learning that you cannot choose your style, just like you cannot choose the style of your handwriting. You can force yourself to paint a certain way for a while, but eventually you will fall into something naturally. I never thought that I would be a realistic painter but the more that I paint the more that that's what I'm leaning toward, and I'm learning to just except it and embrace it. People have suggested to me that realism is "taking the easy way out" and that it's not an artistic expression at all, it's simply copying. I say of course it's an artistic expression. Something that I've noticed is that the people who make such comments paint very loosely and I'd like to see them try to paint realistically. It's not easy and I enjoy the challenge to trying to paint something exactly the way I see it. How can you criticize someone for painting what they see? There are many artists whose work I don't particularly like, but I still respect them and their passion for what they do.
Regarding my work showing no emotion, I think that has been among the most hurtful comments that I have gotten. I believe that all art is an emotional outpouring. A need to express ourselves and the way we view the world in a creative way. All art is emotional. You may not see how painting a still life of peppers, for example, is an emotional outpouring, but it is. Just because you may not have an emotional reaction to a piece or art doesn't mean that it didn't come from an emotional place for the artist. I paint what I love, what brings me joy and what I find unique.
Art is very personal. When you criticize someone's work, you're criticizing them. You don't have to like my work, but really if you don't have anything kind to say, please don't say anything at all. Most of you have been so kind and supportive and I thank you very much for that.

Magnolia Blossom
Today's painting is this little magnolia blossom. Those shadows just drew me in. I'm a little disappointed because these mini paintings don't seem to be scanning very well. They look so much better in person. In fact that's something to always keep in mind with art that you see online; it will always look better in person.
This little magnolia painting is reserved for the gallery.
I hope you have a nice weekend!

Calla Lily
I'm having way too much fun with these little watercolor paintings. The scanner doesn't seem to be doing the best job at obtaining a good image of the painting though. It's so much cuter in person. I can't want to get these framed. I have these white 8 by 10 mat boards with a 2 1/2 by 3 1/2 opening and these little paintings look so nice with them. I've always liked the look of a bigger mat with a small painting.
Anyway, this calla lily was a joy to paint. I have never painted a white flower before, so the shadows made me a bit nervous. However, took out some of my "cobalt's" and mixed just the right colors. I'm very pleased with the way it turned out and I will definitely be painting a calla lily in a larger size in the future.
This little painting will be available at the Stillwater Art Guild Gallery in a couple of weeks.

Periwinkle Poppy
Another little mini watercolor painting today. If you've been following my blog you may recognize this because I did it in pastel a few months ago. I think I like the watercolor better.
I'm having so much fun with this little mini paintings that I think I'll start doing some for Etsy. This little one will be going to the gallery in a few weeks.
A calla lily is next on my list. :)

McDonald's and its franchisees hired 62,000 people in the U.S. after receiving more than one million applications, the Oak Brook, Illinois-based company said today in an e-mailed statement. Previously, it said it planned to hire 50,000.
The April 19 national hiring day was the company's first, said Danya Proud, a McDonald's spokeswoman. She declined to disclose how many of the jobs were full- versus part-time. McDonald's employed 400,000 workers worldwide at company-owned stores at the end of 2010, according to a company filing.

Tomorrow will be L for Lift and it will star everyone's apparently favourite baby battle sylph, who at least is having a worse day than I am. :p
BTW, I have an author account on Goodreads now. How the hell six sylph books got listed there I have no idea. The sixth one isn't even written!
I do desperately want a copy of the foreign language ones, even if the covers make no sense to me.

Geesh, are you okay? (Tire blow out...hope no one was hurt...) Sux about coffee burn. Did you find your wallet? Hope so. Hope you're having sweet dreams right now! YAY! I love nameless baby battler!

I also hope you found your wallet, (usually in the last place I look), and sorry to hear about the tyre - spares are so expensive esp. in the New Year.ReplyDelete
Love reading these snippets esp those featuring baby battler and his sisters, he's so adorable.
Have a good weekend and plenty of sleep!
Hope the next week will be better for you. I totally understand how cool it would be to have your own books on your shelves in a language you can't even read!ReplyDelete
I'm doing better. Still tired. I did find my wallet. I'd just left it at work, which meant I didn't have it when I blew out the tire. At least I had a fully charged phone or I would have been truly screwed. :)ReplyDelete

Judge: Heat on Louisiana death row unsafe
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana (AP) — Louisiana's death row gets so hot that it violates U.S. constitutional protections against cruel and unusual punishment, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
U.S. District Judge Brian Jackson sided with three condemned inmates who filed a lawsuit that said death row conditions during summer months were unsafe.
Jackson ordered the state corrections department and the Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola to give him a plan by Feb. 17 that will cool the cells so the heat index never goes above 88 degrees (31 Celsius).
Department of Corrections spokeswoman Pam Laborde said the agency expects to appeal the judge's ruling.
The civil rights lawsuit was filed in June by the Promise of Justice Initiative, a New Orleans-based nonprofit group, on behalf of condemned killers Elzie Ball, Nathaniel Code and James Magee.
All three men have high blood pressure, along with other health conditions that their lawyers say the heat could make worse.
The lawsuit claimed heat conditions on were "extreme and unsafe," with cell bars too hot to touch, fans that "feel like blow dryers" and inmates sleeping on the floor because it was cooler than in their beds.
Windows and fans are the primary sources of ventilation on death row. Lawyers for the inmates suggested the state penitentiary should add air conditioning or another type of mechanical cooling system.
A trial was held in August. Defendants in the case were the state's corrections secretary, his department and the wardens of the state penitentiary and its death row.
Prison officials said while the conditions might be uncomfortable for the inmates during the hottest summer months, they were safe. They said the inmates have access to medical care and none of the three plaintiffs have ever been diagnosed with adverse heat reactions.
Jackson traveled to Angola, 60 miles north of Baton Rouge, to check out the cell blocks for himself before issuing his 102-page ruling.

Calm down
by E
Whether or not you like Sword Art this is a fair deal considering how much Aniplex's volume releases are. Don't blame rightstuf for price gouging. They are the cheapest way to purchase anime. The other reviewer needs to relax.
sword art Online is the best anime show
by fernando
Righstuf is the best place to buy anime shows became have good deal on anime show
Arguably one of the best deals on the site
by Linne
You save $120 for getting the same Blu-Ray Discs individually, so there isn't much to think about. I'm glad I can support Aniplex with this release. Compared to other collections like the Madoka Magica Box that barely zeroes out if not for a few extras, this is a great release from Aniplex.
Here's hoping they come out with a box set with SAO II (1-24) + Ordinal Scale next.
Sword Art Online returns in a complete season 1 box set!
by David
Review is based off Aniplex Japan's release
I really disliked the SAO LE sets. A 2-cour show having 4 box sets was ridiculous. But thankfully this is a different story.
This is the complete season 1 plus Extra edition released in one set. The outer box is a see-through plastic, though a bit strange it isn't bad as it may longer than a chipboard box.
Next are the Blu-Rays. The set includes 6 discs images redesigned to the scenery from the show with 5 episodes evenly divided unto each disc with the extra episode on the last disc.
Also it comes in a digipak with the Asuna/Kirito promo image which is a downfall since it's made from a cheap material more prone to damages.
Lastly it includes a small booklet explaining the show and the characters.
Overall this is a set that SAO fans will enjoy. Sure it's still expensive being $160 but I think it's justifiable. Aniplex has really lowered their prices comparing to the standard edition being $240 and the LE being $360.
by DOMINIC
Decent Price All Things Considered
by Joseph
For the complete first season plus extra edition (which is movie length in itself). On Blu-ray for $159. That's a really good price for Aniplex. Considering the price of all the box sets by themselves.
Darn It!
by Jeff G
I just bought season 1 part 1 for $60 and then this drops. Ugh! $120 savings half gone. Oh well I'll find a buyer and get this box set.
Amazing show!
by Gage
Love this show! I just hate how I paid $220 just a few months ago for this series just for them to make a cheaper box set :( Very good deal for anyone who was smart enough to wait!
Awesome series - and almost affordable now.
by Kevin M. Woodworth -
Loved loved loved this show. Haven't bought it before now because of Aniplex's OUTRAGEOUS individual volume pricing. Unfortunately, they own some of the best series out there - this, Bakemonogatari, the new Fate series (Zero and UBW) - all priced absolutely in the stratosphere compared to most other releases from other companies. Not Rightstuf's fault - love them (and their highly affordable non-Aniplex titles) to death too. This is finally a reasonable price - so I'll buy it - already know I'll love it.
Just what I was looking for!
by Aokii -
Screw the limited editions, I've been waiting for a consolidated version. Now to wait for Season II to receive a box set as well!
Perfect for Aniplex Shills
by Iggy
Just like with everything else Aniplex does, it's overpriced garbage. Their shows tend to be good, but not so good to warrant $200. ESPECIALLY with their hilariously cheap and shoddy releases. But of course, the shills will FERVENTLY defend Aniplex with their lives if they have to (even if you got this from them for free, it still isn't worth it).
Any rational and intelligent people, however, will just buy a region free blu-ray player and import a few shows (like this one) from Amazon UK, or Zavvi and recoup the investment for the price of a SINGLE AoA release.
Good news but I'll wait for the DVD release
by Jonathan
Happy to see AoA is FINALLY releasing a FULL Blu-Ray release of Sword Art Online instead of those $70 pieces of the series-- But just the same, I'd much rather wait for the less expensive DVD set thanks. Blu-Ray sets are nice but the price is NOT.
by Robert
Still cheaper than buying the bluray arcs from aniplex directly

Anime Price Gouging Has to Stop
by Taldaran
The show is great, the price is not and thus it gets a one-star. Someone in the comments sections said not to blame RightStuf for the pricing, and I agree, instead I blame US anime fans for the pricing. As long as people are foolish enough to buy this then the company that is bringing it over here will continue to charge this much for the stuff. I spent some time overseas and saw these same sets for literally a quarter of the cost, problem is they were all region coded to prevent sale in other countries, especially the US. As a true anime fan don't support the price gouging of Anime, blackball this item to drive the cost down and tell anime importers that we expect fair price for all our anime. This set alone should not be worth more than 50 bucks. Honestly would you pay 150 to 200 for a season of Game of Thrones?
by MugiwaraMason394
I've looked EVERYWHERE for SAO and each place I've looked practically has the different volumes for like a hundred each! Now this comes out, and Im gonna get it! The whole first season with Extra Edition included, PERFECT! Now give us the second season and Sao 2 at this price and I'll be happy :D
LOVE LOVE SWORD ART ONLINEððððð
by CHRISTINA -
LOVE SWORD ART ONLINE FOR THIS I GAVE 5 STARS. BUT OUCH ANIPLEX COME ON WHYJA HAVE TO PUT FOUR OF MY FAVORITE SHOW OUT IN THE SAME MONTH COME ON REALLY U COULD OF ALLOW MY WALLET TO SEMI-RECOVER FROM THE SHOCK. BUT ON SERIOUS NOTE I'M GLAD TO HAVE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON WITH EXTRA EDITION. I WISHED ANIPLEX WOULD'VE PUT STANDARD EDITION WITHOUT EXTRA'S BUT OH WELL I GUESS IT'S CHEAPER THAN PREVIOUS VERSION AT $240 STANDARD EDITION AND $360 LIMITED EDITION. AND THE EXTRA'S DIDN'T JACK UP THE PRICE AS THE EXTRA'S USUAL TEND TO DO WITH ANIPLEX. SO IF U LOVE SAO GO BUY THIS VERSION IT'S THE BEST PRICE FOR ANIPLEX IF U CAN AFFORD IT. OH HERE'S HOPING SAO II WITH ORDINAL SCALE MOVIE IS AT THIS PRICE TOO. SO ANIPLEX KEEP PRICES $120 OR LESS I'LL BUY MORE ENGLISH DUB'S THE COMPLETE SERIES THAT IS. ðð
Kinda bad
by Wolfurus
Honestly, It includes all 25 episodes and bonus thing but you can just watch it in netflix for free not having to pay 160 dollars.
LOVE SWORD ART ONLINEðððð
by CHRISTINA -
Love the series, characters and storyline plus I'm a fan of Bryce Papenbrook too. Also love that don't have to pay $90 for each volume at $360 limited edition but wished Aniplex USA done this with previous version price wise. However that being said at this price I expected DVD/blu-ray without the extra stuff but with this version it didn't raise the price too bad. I like the extra edition of Sao was included so here's hoping Sao II box set also includes Sao ordinal scale movie.ððð Now if Aniplex USA could keep up with lower prices at $120 for complete series with superb sound and picture and quality packaging. So go buy this if u love Sword Art Online, can afford to buy do so it's a good price for Aniplex USA ðð
Great Deal
by Robby S -
I love SAO and I love right stuf. It is a great deal there are 4 volumes each sold through Aniplex totaling 180+40 for the Extra. So 220 for the regular blue rays through aniplex. I wanna thank the rightstuf team for always bringing me good deals.
Math says you're wasting money during manufacturing and your customers pay for it.
by Connor Maynard: Massive fan.
That is a lot of money.
For that price you should be including season two, in addition to Offline and Extra Edition.
That's also an excessive amount of discs, that's probably where you're losing money/what is bumping the price up.
You should be able to put all content in the box set excluding the movie, for the same price, 9 blu ray discs (8.56 actually) could hold all of SAO in Blu ray quality/format and that's without any compression.
If that were the case I would pre order and the patiently wait for an Ordinal Scale blu ray to add to the collect but as it stands it's not worth the money so I cannot justify the purchase.
Bad Timing & Luck
by G.H
I am so ready to by this, even though i already bought box set 1 on blu-ray last year. Now if only they would release the complete collection on DVD!
Other people can't do simple maths.
by Kiki -
The set arrived earlier than expected, and the packaging is great! I've never owned the SAO blu-rays, and every time I tried to justify spending over $100 for just one season I just couldn't do it. This is definitely more affordable than buying everything separately!
Waiting for season 2 set :)
by Eduardo
Nice packaging but wished they included more extras since it was pretty expensive.
