Interview with Director Jean Claude Annaud and actor Guy Pearce of "Two Brothers" (2003)
by Chris Monroe
Also see our REVIEW of "Two Brothers"
With the lead characters of this movie being tigers, it was difficult to wrangle them together for an interview. But, fortunately, I was able to meet with director Jean Claude Annaud and actor Guy Pearce.
Director Jean-Jacques Annaud and Guy Pearce
Jean Jacques Annaud
I asked Jean Jacques Annaud if he was conscious of the theme of peace that seemed to pervade the story. Being very happy with this question he replied:
When I wrote that story, I didn't think I was writing a story for a movie I would make. I didn't know why I wrote that story.—Yes, I know why. I was on an island, with my family for Christmas, as we always do. And it was an island so remote, there was nothing to do in the evening. After six o'clock it was dark, so I went to the local marketplace and bought a little notebook and started writing a feel-good story for myself. Therefore I was in a very peaceful mood. It was Christmas, I was happy, and I was in that mood.
Now I left that little notebook of mine somewhere in my country place. It's only after "Enemy at the Gates" (which I enjoyed very much enjoyed to do, but it was a very tough movie with a lot of explosions, dust, death, fire, blood) I felt like being in the forest again, in a climate of peace. And I wanted to see the green eyes of the tiger. And really, that was it. A sort of instinctive need of feeling brotherhood, peace, happiness.
And I'm very, very pleased that you felt that because it was not written, but that is how it was written. The context was very much that one. And I must tell you that we are all surprised—my crew, after living eight months away from friends, in a difficult country—we all came back in a different mood, with something smiling in our hearts.
And my trainer was saying, "Is it because of Cambodia, or is it because of the tigers?" I don't know, but it was a very strange experience. Very humbling, very fulfilling, heartwarming experience.
Coming across as a more family-oriented / children's movie, Jean Jacques addressed how kids might react to it.
I think most children identify very easily with animals, for the very reason that our world, full of words, is very difficult to comprehend for a child, while the body language of any animal is very easy.Tigers, young tigers, young brothers, are like them. Basically they have the same problems facing any kind of danger in life, any predators in life. And God knows we have predators in our society. That one of the happiest things is to be together, to be together with the people you belong to. So on that level I feel it can be a very heartwarming message.
Actor Guy Pearce gave his impression of the film, both before, during and after its making.
I saw the film yesterday [for the first time] and it has a far more, sort of family-orientated feel. Very obvious family orientated spirit than what I detected when we were making the film, even though, when talking to Jean Jacques, he talked about reaching out to a really broad audience and treating the film with a sort of fable-like quality.
As his second animal-led movie, Jean Jacques explained he did not expect to do another movie like "The Bear." Now with a second film based on man-eating animals, Jean Jacques describes his fascination.
I grew up with a dog. I was an only child. This is probably why I was so inclined to do a movie about brothers, because I've never had one. But I had a sister—my dog. I know that it is an important part of my early life. I have adored that animal. But, yet, when I am in front of the tiger, I'm thrilled. I'm in awe. I feel fear. And I know that is very instinctive, but I feel respect. And I like the idea of looking up at an animal, which I do with tigers.
And I also love the idea that when I cuddle those kitties that are so incredibly attractive—(I was on set kissing the little ones. I was ashamed in front of my unit to do so. But I couldn't help because they're just adorable.)—I knew both little things would become huge predators, extraordinar[ily] dangerous. And I was not looking at them the same way, and I liked that multi-layered feeling.
One of the appeals for Guy to do this film was the shooting schedule, which allowed him to intermittently fly back home to Australia to be with his wife. But the time he did spend in Cambodia proved to be eye-opening experience for him.
We were in Cambodia for five months.working with 250 French people.and working with tigers.I was also touring an incredible country that had such a history. The people of the place were some of the most engaging and enthusiastic people I had ever come across in my life. So just trying to put that together with the history that they've had was just really a mind-altering time, I think.
I mean, everybody we spoke to there was, "Oh, yes, my father was killed by Pol-Pot. My uncle was killed by Pol-Pot. My cousin was killed by Pol-Pot." And after five months of that, it's harrowing just trying to fathom that, let alone experiencing it.
While Jean Jacques said that Guy had an exceptional gift to understand the animals, this did not absolve him from the fierceness of these creatures. Guy describes his own scary moment.
I went to this enclosure because I had the afternoon free. So I sat in the middle of the enclosure and all the tigers were in the different cages and sort of dotting around. And I was sort of watching them, and some were playing, patting up against the cage.and staying away from the adults. But there was one adult that was pacing, and so I went to have a look at it.and it just sort of stopped and looked at me. And then it roared at me.I was six feet away from it, and I just.like.I just kind of went into the ground. I just completely went, "Okay. [exhales] I have this real feeling that if I was out in the wild and one of them decided to do something to you, there's nothing you can do about it." Just to feel that energy, that strength.was incredible. And I learned more from that moment than the nine months I spent with them working.
But after cuddling the baby tigers both on and off camera, Guy addressed the temptation of wanting to take one of the little ones home. He said, "Whoever it is that created us all, made them be so adorable to us, made them be so engaging. So that desire to own that or possess that is really strong."
Because of the obvious danger of working with these animals, Jean Jacques describes the lengths they went to in order to ensure safety for cast and crew.
We worked under very strict rules. It should never be forgotten that tigers are extremely dangerous animals. They are very seductive. They can charm you. They can be your friend. And they can love you until the day they love you for being a fool. [laughs] And, therefore, we took maximum precautions. We never, never allowed anyone to be in the compound, but inside cages.
He went on to tell just how they were able to shoot these wild animals.
I insisted to shoot the tigers the way I would shoot any star—meaning a lot of close-ups.the camera really a few inches from their throat, to get inside their eyes, inside their jaws. This is why my cameras were inches away—or remote controlled, as you can imagine.
On a few occasions my camera operator would beg me later to use the camera with a long lens and have contact with the flesh of the camera. So in those cages we were in heavy chicken wire. We would cut the chicken wire around the lens. But sometimes the window was a bit too big, and tigers like cages because they're like a den, they like getting in. And every week we had the same thing—the tiger wanting to go inside. And we were petrified seeing the tiger go, "Can I come with you?"
Fortunately, we always had a trainer with a large piece of meat and say, "This is better meat." [laughs]
Working with a total of thirty tigers for this project, Jean Jacques felt he faced most of his work and challenges during pre-production and was very pleased with the tigers' performance.
The tigers did better than the storyboarding. I could not imagine that the animals would have so many expressions and reactions.they have such a variety of expression in their eyes and mouth. It was not a matter of being patient while shooting, but during researching. Process took a year and a half.
Conscious of not overstressing the animals, they would only work with them for a very short time on each shooting day. But, he says, "Everyday we had incredible moments.We were surprised that it went so easily."

Aku No Hana: The real face of japan
Discussion in 'Video Games & Weeaboo Shit' started by n1bblir, Apr 14, 2013.
n1bblir
Recently a new anime called Aku No Hana has hit the air waves in japan. The reaction from the fans has been a lot of bawing and drama because it's so fucking ugly to the point it can't even be considered to be called anime. Why am I bringing this up? It just seems to me to be lazy in terms of character design, it doesn't even look good. Some people are saying however the landscapes are, but it brings to light of what Japan is really like underneath all that sparkly kawaii-desu weeb-shit.
AHHHHHHH! BURN IT WITH FIRE!!
Oh wait, there's more.
Is this a dude or a girl?
Maybe that one's shopped...
As said from both the show's creator and the original artist:
- At first Nagahama (the director) refused the offer to direct the adaptation, because he thought that simply turning this manga into a pretty, clean-looking anime would be pointless. He says that he believes that when the mangaka draws this story he's seeing something "else" which he expresses as a manga. So there would be no point in simply presenting it in animated form, at that rate you might as well just read the manga and be done with it.
- He thought if it was to be adapted at all, it should be done as a live drama. When he was offered the job the second time, he pitched the idea of using rotoscope. He was aware that the result would be different from the manga.
- Oshimi (the mangaka) says Nagahama is right about the way he creates the manga: the original story is something that exists in his head, and he draws what he sees in his mind. So basically the anime and the manga are two different versions of the story that exists in Oshimi's head. By the way, he was also aware that due to the rotoscope the anime would look different from his work, and he thought it was an interesting idea.
- Oshimi also says that he thinks Nagahama has a very deep insight into the story, and firmly believes that he's taking it in the right direction. He also very much approves of Nagahama's wish of the anime leaving the viewers with a scar.
- Oshimi was pretty much "in" on the whole thing, they tested the rotoscope method on him.
- The interviewer asks about the impact the visuals would have on viewers, and Nagahama says he's well aware that a lot of people will go "what the fuck" and "this is gross," "I hate this, I'm not watching this." But he's pretty much okay with that, too, because he thinks it's fine as long as it leaves an impact on people. Viewers may dismiss it right away, but some may check it out later and find it interesting, or they may come across the manga, recognize the title, and read that.
- Oshimi says that he once got a fan letter from a high school girl who wrote that when she read the manga in middle school she thought it was stupid, but she tried to read it again when she was older and she found it very good. Nagahama says that this is what he's going for, to leave an impact, even if it's negative. He's trying to create something that one can't just ignore or dismiss.
- Oshimi also says that the anime has many scenes that he wishes he would've drawn the way they are in the anime, for example a scene with Kasuga and Nakamura in the classroom.
- Also, he confesses he's writing the manga with the intention of murdering the readers with it (metaphorically, of course), thinks the anime is doing the same, and relishes the idea of the viewers getting slaughtered, jokingly of course. (lol #1)
They leave the following messages to the fans:
- Oshimi: He guarantees that those who feel very strongly about Aku no hana will enjoy the anime. However, chara-moe types, those who go "Nakamura-san, unf unf" will probably feel betrayed. (lol #2)
- Nagahama: Since it's so different from the usual anime, he can't say that everyone will love it. But those who watch the first episode and think "I want to see more" will not have their expectations betrayed.
Apparently it's better to make a bad impression than none at all and that's why they went with it. It sounds like they're making excuses for someone's fuck up really, who knows the truth as to what really happened. That being said I never seen the manga, and given how the anime looks I don't want to now.
I'm sure people noticed that, sure, maybe some of the characters have no detail inside their mouths, or no skin tones between their bangs, maybe they do have the same kinda empty grin stare that gives one the chills and the characters look lazy while everything else looks great. Atleast it made an impact! I mean that means something, I'm writing about it aren't I?
That's akin to saying "Well I might not be famous, but at least I have an ED article on me and that means I made an impact!" Yikes.

Looks awesome, imo, at least they have facial expressions, unlike 98% of animu. Otakus are raging only because they can't masturbate to it.

I'm not really upset because they used a different style, I'm upset because it looks crappy.

That would kill the purpose, this is what a common Japanese high school looks like, using models would be stupid and kill the seriousness of the anime.

Well, I would assume that most japnese actors/actresses would look better than that
Of course, but is better to use regular people.

I hope it tanks like Girls Und Panzer hasn't.
I felt more when Mami-san got her head ripped off and Lego Bricked. Anyway. Fuck this and fuck whoever thought it was a good idea. Let's hope some good studio and director gets the manga rights. Fuck.
#21 Negi Springfield, Apr 24, 2013
Apparently some of the viewers there are already starting to believe it's pushing it. Honestly, the art for the animation reminds me of something from Tom Preston.

I haven't actually watched any of this (cause who gives a fuck about high school melodrama), but I can honestly say it is my favorite anime.

Now we know where their autism came from!
#24 GSTalbert1, May 5, 2013
Thanks for opening my eyes, it all makes sense now! I feel kind of sick- but, it makes sense.
It's Japan, they have the lowest creativity scores in the world. They lack the ability to do anything independently, ask them what their favorite color is and before answering they will fucking ask their friends what the correct answer is. Nothing in their culture is even remotely original, it's always been just a rip off of the west and the rest. The only thing more pathetic than this is the way they glorify such socially-enforced autism. They are the jews of asia.

The manga is really fucked up (in a good way). I think this shitty rotoscoped animation just makes the whole thing look retarded. It should have been done in the original style or with live actors. I can't wait to see how this animation completely destroys all the intense moments because it will just be human shaped blobs instead of characters.

Saw the first episode with English subtitles. I don't mind the rotoscope cause I guess I never read the manga. Are the kids going to go crazy and kill each other or some shit, or is there an 'evil flower' monster thing?

Justin Bieber Biography, Singing career and Personal Life
Justin Bieber is a Canadian singer and songwriter who was taken the music world by storm. Releasing his first album at the age of 15, he has gone on to become one of the most talked about artists in recent times, both for good and bad reasons.
Bieber was discovered by a talent scout via YouTube. He achieved immense success following the release of his singles from his debut EP 'My World'. He retained his soaring fame with the release of his debut studio album 'My World 2.0' and continued to break records with his next albums, 'Under the Mistletoe', 'Believe' and 'Purpose'. Zayn Malik Biography, Career and Early life
He has also released a couple of remix albums, two biographical concert films, and has appeared on numerous television shows to perform live. The young star has has won several awards, including one Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording.
He has been just as famous for his past relationship with pop-star Selena Gomez as he has been infamous for his numerous celebrity hook-ups. He also has had several run-ins with the law, culminating in arrest a couple of times for DUI and dangerous driving.
Childhood & Early Life
Justin Drew Bieber was born on March 1, 1994, in London, Ontario, at St Joseph's Hospital. He was raised in Stratford, Ontario, by his single mother, Patricia Mallette, and his maternal grandmother, Diane. His parents never got married, but he kept in touch with his father Jeremy Jack Bieber.
At elementary level, he attended Jeanne Sauvé Catholic School, a French-language immersion school in Stratford. In 2012, he graduated from St. Michael Catholic Secondary School with a 4.0 GPA.
As a child, he was interested in music and learned to play the piano, drums, guitar, and trumpet. In 2007, a 12-year-old Bieber secured the second place against trained singers in a local singing competition in Stratford, performing Ne-Yo's 'So Sick'.
His mother initially created a YouTube account to share her son's performance with family members and friends. As his popularity grew on the channel, she continued to post more videos of him singing covers of various R&B songs.
By sheer chance, Justin Bieber's future manager, Scooter Braun, stumbled upon one of his YouTube videos while searching for another singer. He immediately flew him to Atlanta, Georgia, and arranged meetings with Usher Raymond, as well as Justin Timberlake. In 2008, he eventually signed to Raymond Braun Media Group, a joint venture between Braun and Usher.
On May 18, 2009, Bieber released his debut single 'One Time' on radio. The song peaked at No.12 on the 'Canadian Hot 100' following its release and reached No.17 on the 'Billboard Hot 100'.
His first EP, 'My World', was released on November 17, 2009, and was able to match the success of his debut single. All of his next three singles, 'One Less Lonely Girl', 'Love Me' and 'Favorite Girl', charted within the top 40 of the 'Billboard Hot 100'.
In late 2009, he appeared on television multiple times to promote his debut EP. He performed live on 'The Today Show', 'The Wendy Williams Show', 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show', and 'Good Morning America', and also guest starred in an episode of 'True Jackson, VP'. In December 2009, he performed at the White House for US President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama.
'Baby', the lead single from his debut studio album 'My World 2.0', was released on January 18, 2010, and became an international hit overnight. The album, which officially released on March 19, 2010, reached the top ten charts in many countries, peaking at No.1 in Canada, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
On June 23, 2010, he began his first official headlining tour, the 'My World Tour', from Hartford, Connecticut. He also released an acoustic remix album, called 'My Worlds Acoustic' in November 2010.
'Justin Bieber: Never Say Never', a music documentary based on the star's life, was released on February 11, 2011, accompanied by his second remix album, 'Never Say Never – The Remixes'. He released the Christmas-themed album 'Under the Mistletoe', on November 1, 2011.
'Boyfriend', the first single from his third studio album 'Believe', was released on March 26, 2012. The album was released from Island Records on June 19, 2012. To promote the album, he started the 'Believe Tour' in September 2012.
In October 2013, he released a sequel to 'Never Say Never', a biographical concert film titled 'Justin Bieber's Believe'. Prior to the released of the film, he released a new song every Monday for 10 weeks as a lead-up to the film.
His fourth album 'Purpose' was led by the single 'What Do You Mean?' which released on August 28, 2015. It became his first number-one single on the 'Billboard Hot 100' and earned him a Guinness World Record as the youngest male artist to debut at the top of that chart.
The next two singles, 'Sorry' and 'Love Yourself', climbed to the peak of the same chart, making him the first artist in a decade, after Justin Timberlake, to achieve this feat.
Major Works
Justin Bieber's first full-length studio album, 'My World 2.0', cemented his status as a major artist with hit singles like 'Baby'. The album sold over 3,350,000 copies in the US alone, and received Platinum certification in US, Canada, England, Australia and New Zealand.
His third studio album, 'Believe' is rich in elements of dance-pop and contemporary R&B, and marks his transition from teen pop style. Riding the success of its lead single 'Boyfriend', the album sold over 3 million copies worldwide. It became Platinum certified in US, Canada and Australia, while achieving Gold status in England.
His latest studio album 'Purpose' created records as the first three singles of the album, 'What Do You Mean?', 'Sorry' and 'Love Yourself' reached the top of both the US and UK charts. The album sold over 4.5 million copies worldwide and received Platinum certification in many countries including US, Canada, England and Australia.
With an estimated 100 million sales, Justin Bieber became the best-selling male Canadian artist, as well as one of the world's best-selling music artists. His single 'Baby' holds the record for highest-certified digital song of all time.
Over the years, he has won one 'Grammy Award', two 'Brit Awards', three 'NRJ Music Awards' and thirteen 'Billboard Music Awards'. He also won a huge number of fan-voted awards, including 20 'Teen Choice Awards', 18 'MTV Europe Music Awards' and eight 'American Music Awards'.
Run-Ins With Law
He has faced legal issues multiple times, being accused of reckless driving in 2012 and vandalism in 2013. He was finally arrested on January 23, 2014, in Miami Beach, Florida, for driving under the influence (DUI). Following his release on bond, he got arrested again in September 2014 for dangerous driving.
Justin Bieber started dating Selena Gomez in December 2010 and their relationship became a media sensation. After an on-and-off relationship for a couple years, they separated in November 2012. Michael Jackson Biography, Career, Wiki and Death
Justin Bieber's mother was initially reluctant to allow him to work with talent scout Scooter Braun because he was Jewish. She allowed him to travel with Braun only after church elders convinced her to do so.

Q: double text substituion in GNU Make suppose I have source file list like this.
SRCS = A/src/A1.c A/src/A2.c B/src/B1.c B/src/B2.c

I want objects file list from above list.
OBJS = A/obj/A1.o A/obj/A2.o B/obj/B1.o B/obj/B2.o

I want to write something like this.
OBJS = $(SRCS: %1/src/%2 = %1/obj/%2)

But since this feature is not provided in GNU make,
I need to think up workaround. Currently I'm using this.
SRCS = $(foreach DIR, A B, $(wildcard $(DIR)/src/*.c))
OBJS = $(foreach DIR, A B,
         $(addprefix $(DIR)/obj/,
           $(patsubst %.c, %.o,
             $(notdir $(wildcard $(DIR)/src/*.c))
           )
         )
       )

*

*remove old dir name

*do substitution

*append new dir name

But this way is obviously complicated so I want a better solution.
Anyone know better solution to this?

A: I would use this:
OBJS := $(subst /src/,/obj/,$(SRCS))

And then fix the suffix:
OBJS := $(patsubst %.c,%.o, $(subst /src/,/obj/,$(SRCS)))

Most Popular Colorways: White/Black-Red, Carmelo Anthony PE
After all of the success of the Jordan I, Nike did a complete 180 with the design of the Air Jordan II. Once again Peter Moore was behind the design board and he broke every rule. The shoe was the first Nike shoe to not feature Swoosh branding anywhere on the sneaker. It was a risky move, but it ushered in an era where design, not a logo, was most important. The Jordan II was the only pair of Jordans to be made in Italy, and thanks to the faux-lizard skin on the upper and design inspiration from a women's boot (an inspiration that would pop up again with the Air Jordan XII) they brought a new level of luxury to sports product as well as pop culture warranting the $100 price tag. If these were a true retro today you could expect them to go for well over three bills.
The Jordan II originally only dropped in two colorways as well as a low-top version during it's first run, again completely opposite of the Jordan I that released in a countless number of color combinations. The shoe was a staple on shows like A Different World, proving it was just as coveted for off-the-court fashion as on-the-court performance. Shortly after Carmelo Anthony penned to Jordan Brand in 2003, JB cooked-up a special player edition in the Nuggets' blue and gold colorway for the young star, helping the Jordan II legacy carry on.

Dedicating the majority of her career to the nonprofit sector, Tracy most recently was the Managing Director of Advancement at Cristo Rey Jesuit. In that role, she is most proud of launching Milwaukee Stars Merengue, engaging eight local celebrities to compete for votes (dollars) and drawing crowds of 500+ people annually, and leading the collective effort to raise $12 million in one year to put the school on solid footing to build the new campus in Clarke Square. Tracy applauds the incredible group of teammates and volunteers she's had the privilege of working with to make the magic happen.
She advises nonprofit clients on incorporating more targeted relational fundraising practices into their development efforts.

She lives in New Berlin with her husband of 15+ years, son Luke (13), and daughter Addison (11) - see below.
To those who say, "You're a fundraiser, right? I couldn't do what you do. How do you ask people for money all the time?" Tracy responds, "Fundraising is not about asking people for money ALL the time. Mostly, it is about asking questions and listening. I don't like asking for money either, but I do LOVE when generous people find an organization or cause that resonates with them."

An excellent post! When I was a green crewmember I was so utterly focused on the work and proving my skill that any passing flirting comment from a fellow crewmember didn't even register in my mind. Then one day at the end of a long shoot a grip walked me to my car and tried to kiss me. What?! I was so shocked that him (a married man) would make a move on a script goddess like myself. As a result of this incident my eyes became clear and I started to see the set lust around me. Married, single, it didn't matter. Being on location was like Vegas.
A great post, the best I've ever read on this subject. As a younger grip on location I burned my way through several on set romances. It took a divorce to finally help me grow up a little. Now in my second marriage, to someone in the business, I don't go to the hotel bar any more (or wrap parties without my spouse for that matter). And the crew I work on is mostly made up of married men, which makes it easier to stay away from trouble. Not because I'm easily led astray, but because I've learned that putting yourself into certain situations is an invitation for trouble.
I would only add, Try real hard not to date actresses. Even if they're really hot. Even if you can't believe you're hooking up with someone you grew up watching on TV.
Incredible post, Michael. You should be above the line instead of below it, but I trust you are equally excellent at your chosen profession.
I found you via your recent post on Kay's blog and am really glad I did. You really write like a pro and I'm looking forward to getting into the rest of your stories.
Best of luck to you, sir. Keep up the great work.
You bring your usual eloquence to a topic many of us know all too well.

Baroque Paintings
Baroque painting envelops an incredible scope of styles, as generally significant and significant painting during the period starting around 1600 and proceeding all through the seventeenth century, and into the mid-eighteenth century is distinguished today as Baroque painting. In its most run of the mill indications, Baroque art is portrayed by the extraordinary show, rich, profound color, and exceptional light and dull shadows, yet the style of French Baroque painters like Poussin and Dutch classification painters, for example, Vermeer are additionally secured by the term, in any event in English. Instead of Renaissance art, which for the most part demonstrated the minute prior to an occasion occurred, Baroque artists picked the most emotional point, the minute when the activity was happening: Michelangelo, working in the High Renaissance, shows his David created and still before he fights Goliath; Bernini's Baroque David is trapped in the demonstration of throwing the stone at the mammoth. Baroque art was intended to bring out feelings and enthusiasm rather than the quiet discernment that had been prized during the Renaissance.
Among the best painters of the Baroque time frame are Velázquez, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Rubens, Poussin, and Vermeer. Caravaggio is a beneficiary of the humanist painting of the High Renaissance. His sensible way to deal with the human figure, painted legitimately from life and significantly spotlit against a dull foundation, stunned his counterparts and opened another section throughout the entire existence of painting. Baroque painting frequently sensationalizes scenes utilizing chiaroscuro light impacts; this can be found in works by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Le Nain, and La Tour. The Flemish painter Anthony van Dyck built up an effortless yet forcing picture style that was powerful, particularly in England.
The success of seventeenth-century Holland prompted a tremendous creation of art by huge quantities of painters who were for the most part exceptionally particular and painted just sort scenes, scenes, still lifes, portraits or history paintings. Specialized models were high, and the Dutch Golden Age painting built up another collection of subjects that was compelling until the appearance of Modernism.
The expression "Baroque" was at first utilized with a deprecatory significance, to underline the overabundances of its accentuation. Others get it from the memory helper term "Baroco" meaning, in consistent Scholastica, an as far as anyone knows toiled type of syllogism. In particular, the term was utilized to portray its capricious excess and loud bounty of subtleties, which strongly differentiated the reasonable and calm soundness of the Renaissance. It was first restored by the Swiss-conceived art student of history, Heinrich Wölfflin (1964–1967) in his Renaissance und Barock (1888); Wölfflin recognized the Baroque as "development brought into mass", an art antithetic to Renaissance art. He didn't cause the differentiation among Mannerism and Baroque that cutting edge journalists to do, and he disregarded the later stage, the scholarly Baroque that endured into the eighteenth century. Journalists in French and English didn't start to regard Baroque as a good report until Wölfflin's impact had made German grant pre-prominent.


This is a quick update. Capital Observer will resume Tuesday.
I believe we are in a period of correction as we will be intermediate term overbought at the end of the day on Monday. In my experience time is more important than price in measuring a correction. Sometimes the market can correct by going sideways for a few weeks while other times the market plunges over those same few weeks. I am planning on remaining cautious until some time passes and/or we get a correction in price.
I don't expect the market to collapse completely but a correction of 5% from the recent highs would not surprise me nor would some chopiness for a few weeks.We are approaching the turn of the month so its possible the market tries to rally but I don't believe it will make much progress. If the market manages to score a new high during the turn of the month period I would likely further reduce my moderate net long exposure.


As some of you may know, the band Fall Out Boy released a video for their song "Young and Menace" in April 2017, and that video featured "two striking and unique wearable, llama-like puppets" (see above) created by the appropriately named Furry Puppet Studio. According to Furry Puppet Studio, in fact, said puppets will be "instantly recognizable" to any fan. Indeed, they have since become "central to Fall Out Boy's identity, brand, and music"—which is a problem, again according to Furry Puppet Studio, because it created the puppets only for that video, retained the copyright, and never agreed to any other use for them.
Hence, Fall Out Boy "was (and is) exploiting the llamas by infringingly reproducing and displaying the puppets as merchandise" and otherwise using them in connection with its ongoing activities. So alleges Furry Puppet Studio in this 133-page complaint, filed in the Southern District of New York on Monday (Billboard). FPS is charging FOB with copyright infringement, breach of contract, and various other things as a result of the alleged llama exploitation.
The complaint includes several images of what at least appear to be the puppets in question, which FOB allegedly named "Frosty" and "Royal Tea" and made "de facto members of the band." Some of the images could just be regular cartoon-llama images, but in context they are probably meant to represent the wearable puppets.
Nor could it have anticipated, barring "omniscient clairvoyance," that Fall Out Boy would exploit the llamas to the degree it has, according to the complaint.
This probably comes down to the scope of whatever agreement the parties reached when the llamas were created, and if there was some sort of written license agreement, it's not attached to the complaint (nor did I see it mentioned, unless I missed it). That would make proof more difficult but certainly not impossible. I guess we shall see.
Billboard points out that Furry Puppet's lawyer is the same guy who sued Led Zeppelin for allegedly stealing part of "Stairway to Heaven" (see "Led Zeppelin Admits 'Exceptional Talent,' Denies All Other Allegations (May 29, 2015)), so make of that what you will. I didn't think there was anything to that case, but it's gotten further than I thought it would.

McKinley's Brad Jones looks for chance at Browns' minicamp
Steve Doerschuk
Brad Jones envisions tons of fun playing for Cleveland Browns Defensive Coordinator Rob Ryan.
"I love coaches like that," he said. "They want to win just as bad as you do."
Jones knows he must be mentally sharp to impress Head Coach Eric Mangini.
"He's very interactive in the way he questions guys," Jones said.
"He wants to know how much you know about the game plan or the team."
The trick is keeping Ryan and Mangini as his bosses beyond Sunday.
That's the last day for the Browns rookie minicamp, in which Jones is competing on a tryout basis.
"I feel if I get an honest opportunity, I can succeed with it," said Jones, who played high school ball at McKinley and college ball at Cincinnati. "This is really about seizing the moment."
Jones didn't become a cornerback until he was in college, and didn't start until his senior year.
When he got his shot, he helped Cincinnati to a 12-1 record and No. 8 in the final national rankings.
He thought strong game tapes against West Virginia, Fresno State, South Florida and Pitt might get him drafted. When that didn't happen, and he received no offers to sign a contract as an undrafted rookie, his only option was to sign with a team inviting him to a minicamp tryout.
A Browns scout called Monday. Jones said yes.
"I never thought I'd wind up here, but I'm more than thankful for it," Jones said. "I'd never even talked to the Browns. It might just be a blessing that kind of dropped out of the sky.
"I'm looking at it like that, and I'll try to make this happen."
It's a maxed-out rookie minicamp with eight draft picks, 10 undrafted players who signed contracts and Jones' group — 36 tryout hopefuls.
His cousin, former NFL safety Mike Doss, told him to be aggressive, to be the player he was last year at Cincinnati.
His former Cincinnati teammate DeAngelo Smith, who bounced around as a 2009 rookie and was signed Thursday by the Browns, called early in the week with this advice:
"It's the NFL now. You don't have any friends. You played at a high level on a team that won two conference titles, so you have the ability to play at the next level. The only guys that have it made are the first- and second-rounders. Everybody else has to pretty much earn it."
Jones tells himself not to worry about not being under contract.
"It's just kind of, I mean ... I don't want to say disheartening, but from everything you accomplished in college, you come in and you're at the bottom of the totem pole," he said.
"The first practice, I didn't get as many reps as I would like, but I feel like I made the best of the individual work. That's probably where I'm going to have to get noticed.
"It's tough, but the NFL is going to find you if you're good. They're not going to let you sneak in and sneak out."


This issue was released a week early through IDW's website, so discuss here! No spoilers for this issue outside of this thread, please.

Assuming the Grand Architect isn't bullshitting everyone, the wiki sure is going to have a hell of a time managing these pages.
So if issue 25 is going to be an epilogue, that means Roberts has 2 issues to wrap this up. Yeah, this is gonna be rushed as hell.
Nah. It'll be fine, the only major threat is a giant robot that they can't explode but has a convenient juicy middle filled with the 7 guys they need to kill to stop it. Easily do-able in a comic book, and frankly should be done as fast as possible since Roberts is better at character writing than at action.
This was a good issue precisely for that too. Very little bang bang, exposition that is actualy thrilling, good interaction between character's that hadn't spoken in a while. It was fun.
I'm wondering if they'll have to murder the Functionist denizens, given the Magnificence's seeming insistence that that'll happen.
Incidentally, there's got to be some further reason for the omniscience. A tie to the Warren maybe? As I'm suspecting the Warren is key to a lot of things involving the Guiding Hand.

This whole thing just... ruins Rung's character for me. Having a mysterious purpose for his alternate mode and origins is one thing, but having him be the most important character cosmologically is just... it's a bad idea for exactly the same reason Optimus actually being The Arisen is a bad idea.
Edited by Tyranno, 02 August 2018 - 12:34 PM.
The difference though is that Rung up until now has been a VERY unimportant character in the history of the planet (as far as anyone knew) and kept to himself.
As I was saying on Discord, I think it's probably going to be more like a "Steven Universe/Pink Diamond" kind of deal, where they're not LITERALLY reincarnations of the characters, but they're carrying their... essences around, in some fashion?
I don't think they're reincarnations. I'm assuming they're still the same incarnations and probably even the same bodies. They took efforts to remove themselves from the planet's history though and given all the rises and falls it was pretty easily for their appearance to become mythologized and idealized into that befitting of gods.
REALLY curious as to the Matrix now, though, now that we know Solomus isn't it (not to mention that never made sense anyway given it's capable of producing sparks). If anything I'd assume Rung created it given it's one big photonic crystal.

Adaptus says that they don't remember who they are anymore, so, make of that what you will.
...So I'm kind of starting to think that yes, the Knights of Cybertron really were just Some Guys who died in space.
"You don't deserve to know", huh, Metroplex?
It says a lot that James Roberts' self insert is the singular most important Cybertronian God.
That actually works quite well if you look at it from an end-of-The-Dark-Knight "they deserve better than the truth" point of view?
Also, I'm curious if the Militant Monoform Movement goes back far further than we thought as an organization, and removes their cogs not because they're anti-transforming but anti-Adaptus' agenda.
See, I always imagined it might be "the Knights were terrible people and you're better off not knowing the truth", but I never considered it might be "the truth is just really, really boring".
This issue also had the biggest example of Megatron Is Perfect and Too Good For This World yet when he has medical skills that save Drift from death after Ratchet and Velocity, the former of which is a genius in his field, had given up.

Scarborough Gold Cup Road Races 2012 DVD
£9.99RRP £16.99 or 800 Duke Club Points
Product code: 1879Released: 05 November 2012DVD Region: 0
The historic parkland setting of Oliver's Mount, Scarborough, delivered another vintage race meeting for the 2012 International Gold Cup, and now you can experience all the vital highlights in this truly action-packed review.
There's a massive 16 races to enjoy as we bring you the elbow-to-elbow antics from among the two-strokes, SuperTwins, 600s and 1000s, plus all the paint-swapping drama of the three F2 sidecar showdowns.
The trackside cameras capture the jaw-dropping action, while the on-board footage puts you right at the heart of the racing as the stars do battle around the tree-lined 2.43-mile circuit.
Victory in 7 of the races was claimed by less than 1.5 seconds! This is truly close racing - you won't want to look away from the screen in case you miss something.
Tyco Suzuki's Guy Martin was the undoubted man of the meeting, only missing out on six wins from six starts due to an electrical fault, but he had to fight hard against greats like the Padgetts Honda pairing of John McGuinness and Bruce Anstey, as well as Dean Harrison, one of road racing's fastest rising stars.
Plus, there are outstanding rides from Ian Lougher, Davy Morgan, James Cowton, Chris Palmer, Michael Pearson, Ivan Lintin, Jamie Hamilton and William Dunlop to enjoy.
The three-wheel action is intense, and not just because Michael Dunlop made an amazing sidecar racing debut with passenger Dan Sayle! The battles throughout the field in all three races will have you glued to the screen, especially the epic dices between the outfit of Ian and Carl Bell and the legend Dave Molyneux, partnered by Patrick Farrance.
The 2012 International Gold Cup review also pays tributes to one of the sport's biggest stars, Ryan Farquhar, the 99-time winner at Oliver's Mount who retired during the season. We hear from the man himself about the tough decision to quit racing, and enjoy the emotional parade laps led by Ryan, as he is joined by the likes of McGuinness, Martin and Ian Hutchinson.

Mary Hughes begins the morning of December 8th the same way she has for the past 78 years – by donating boxes of food and clothing to the homeless. But the rest of her day is anything but typical. She is ushered off to the world-famous Atlanta diner, The Varsity, where her honorary photograph is unveiled right below that of President Barack Obama's on a wall of photos honoring the restaurant's most noteworthy visitors. Then, she's driven to a party – an event packed with friends, family, reverends, judges and other notables who have come together to celebrate her life.
Hughes is one of a small number of centenarians —people above the age of 100— in the United States. She's among even fewer people who have reached the age of 102. But what brings a community together today to celebrate is not just her years, but how she has spent them.
"I've always wanted to help people," says Hughes.
And help she has. Hughes has spent the majority of her life pouring into other people. She has volunteered at soup kitchens, started scholarships for young people, donated money to underprivileged children, and so much more.
"When you help somebody, that's all you can do. Because the more you give to God, the more He gives to you," says Hughes. What she may best be known for is her annual birthday tradition: donating clothing and food to those in need. She donates one box for each year she's been on Earth. So for her 102nd birthday, Mother Hughes visited a local homeless shelter to donate 102 boxes.
And she plans to do the same next year.
Perhaps the reason Mother Hughes has committed her life to helping others is because her own upbringing wasn't so easy. Orphaned as an infant after her parents' deaths, she went on to graduate as valedictorian of her high school class and later earn a nursing degree, kicking off a life that would center around caring for others. The person she's been caring for the longest is her only child, Dr. Herbert Bridgewater.
Mother Hughes is not done giving back. Even her birthday party, held this year at Chick-fil-A at Greenbriar Mall in Atlanta, is all about others. More than 60 kids, all of whom are on a limited meal program, came to the restaurant to celebrate with her and enjoy free Chick-fil-A sandwiches. Mother Hughes handed them all out herself.
Wayne Blessitt owns the Chick-fil-A at Greenbriar Mall. For him, the experience is one to learn from.
To someone on the outside, this Chick-fil-A —a shopping mall restaurant— may not be an obvious pick for such a celebration, but the choice is significant. Mother Hughes' history with Chick-fil-A goes back to its late founder Truett Cathy, who was there for her in a time of need years ago – what has become "a fantastic story" about Mother Hughes, according to her son.
The community would return the love Hughes had shown them during the course of so many years by coming together to raise money for her. Local sports teams even joined in donating clothing to the woman who had donated so much herself.
Hughes wanted to express her gratitude, but she had nothing left to give. That's when she called Truett Cathy himself and worked with him to deliver Chick-fil-A to the entire fire department that rescued her.
"It's just what she does," says Bridgewater.
Although she only has one biological son, Hughes will tell you she has no shortage of children. "I have so many children, I don't know what to do with them all," she says.
Each of her many godchildren, relatives and friends gathered to celebrate her 102 years has a story about what they have learned from her.
Mother Hughes' cousin, Tillman Hughes, says she's taught him the difference between legacy and heritage.
What's next for Mother Hughes? One thing is certain - she's not slowing down. In fact, she's created a cookbook with her favorite recipes, and in true "Mother Hughes" fashion. 100 percent of the proceeds will go to help college students pay for textbooks.
"What I do, I do for everybody," she sates simply. She says this others-first is the key to a long life.
And in her spare time, she will be looking ahead to her next birthday. After all, it takes some planning to give away 103 boxes of love.


LD33 Assemblyman Raj Mukherji will join the Assembly Democratic leadership team as the Majority Whip, replacing LD8 Assemblyman Herb Conaway.
Mukherji's elevation to the Assembly leadership can be seen as another example of the growing political primacy by the South Asian community today, coupled with the swearing-in of Senator Vin Gopal this afternoon.
Shavonda Sumter and Jerry Green will remain as Conference Leader and Speaker Pro Tempore, respectively, and Lou Greenwald as Majority Leader, while the position of Deputy Majority Whip – previously held by Essex's Ralph Caputo – has been given to LD18's Robert Karabinchak.
There's already committee shakeups occurring, such as Bergen's Vainieri Huttle being replaced as Human Services Chair, as reported by Insider NJ. However, she'll take over the Assembly Homeland Security Committee. Assemblymen Eustace of Bergen and Wimberly of Paterson also lost their committee chairmanships. See the full list here.

Lancaster County has some of the most fertile non-irrigated land in the country. The Ag Council and it's partner organization, the Lancaster County Conservation District, stand firmly behind the need for farmers to help conserve and protect our natural resources, such as soil and water. Having written and implemented Conservation Plans or Ag Erosion & Sedimentation (Ag E&S) plans are a critical part of being stewards of the land.
Overall, the goal of conservation planning is to identify and address natural resource concerns on agricultural land, such as gully erosion, excess nutrients, and sediment runoff. Addressing resource concerns around your property benefits your local streams, creeks, and rivers.
In collaboration with USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and private sector consultants, the Conservation District, is available to help farmers and landowners get plans written or updated and implemented. Technical assistance and cost share programs are available for implementing Best Management Practices (BMPs) that help keep the soil in place, improve soil health, sequester carbon, and positively impact water quality in our local streams. Click here to download Ag Best Management Practices Guide.
The Lancaster Clean Water Partners
Beginning a few years ago, the Lancaster Conservation District has been part of the county-wide, coordinated effort to address water quality improvement called the Lancaster Clean Water Partners. The Partners is a countywide, collaborative partnership of diverse partner organizations – local leaders in business, municipal public service, higher education, conservation planning, and non-profit management – that come together with a Common Agenda. We're led by an Executive Committee and Steering Committee, with full-time support from staff, and collaboration with many partner organizations across Lancaster…https://lancastercleanwaterpartners.com/. It is driven by a shared vision of clean and clear water in Lancaster County by 2040.
Conservation Foundation of Lancaster County
The Lancaster Co Conservation District also has another critical arm needed to accomplish natural resource conservation, and that is the Conservation Foundation of Lancaster County. It was founded in 2007 as the fundraising arm of the Conservation District and is a tax exempt 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. The mission of the Conservation Foundation of Lancaster County is to promote, support, and sustain the stewardship, education and conservation activities undertaken by the Lancaster County Conservation District and our local partners. The primary goal of the Lancaster County Conservation District is to build a sustainable future for all citizens of Lancaster County…https://lancasterconservation.org/conservation-foundation/
Agriculture Conservation Funding
For the most up to date information about cost-share programs, contact the Conservation District or USDA NRCS. There are long-standing programs administered by USDA. In addition, the Conservation District holds many grants that are focused on installing BMPs in Lancaster County. What is available and what the requirements are can change frequently, so don't hesitate to contact the Conservation District for more details. Below is a list of some options. As a reminder, all farms will need to be in compliance with Conservation Plans or Ag E&S plans, and applicable Manure Management or Nutrient Management Plans to be eligible for any cost share programs.
The Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) is a voluntary land retirement program that helps agricultural producers protect environmentally sensitive land, decrease erosion, restore wildlife habitat, and safeguard ground and surface water. For more information on cost share programs, please contact Ashley Spotts.
The Resource Enhancement and Protection (REAP) Program allows farmers and businesses to earn tax credits in exchange for "Best Management Practices" (BMPs) on agricultural operations that will enhance farm production and protect natural resources. The program is administered by the State Conservation Commission and the tax credits are awarded by the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue. Eligible applicants may receive between 50% and 75% of project costs as state tax credits for up to $150,000 per agricultural operation. The amount of tax credit available to a recipient is dependent on the type of BMP implemented.
The Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) was reauthorized in the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (Farm Bill) to provide a voluntary conservation program for farmers and ranchers that promotes agricultural production and environmental quality as compatible national goals. EQIP offers financial and technical help to assist eligible participants install or implement structural and management practices on eligible agricultural land.
The Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP) provides financial and technical assistance to help conserve agricultural lands and wetlands and their related benefits. Under the Agricultural Land Easements component, NRCS helps Indian tribes, state and local governments and non-governmental organizations protect working agricultural lands and limit non-agricultural uses of the land. Under the Wetlands Reserve Easements component, NRCS helps to restore, protect and enhance enrolled wetlands.
The Conservation Stewardship Program helps agricultural producers maintain and improve their existing conservation systems and adopt additional conservation activities to address priority resources concerns. Participants earn CSP payments for conservation performance – the higher the performance, the higher the payment.
The Agricultural Management Assistance Program (AMA) helps agricultural producers use conservation to manage risk and address natural resource issues through natural resources conservation. NRCS administers the AMA conservation provisions, while the Agricultural Marketing Service and the Risk Management Agency implement other provisions under AMA.

In offering online gaming through Santa Ysabel Interactive, the Tribe is exerting its sovereign right under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) to regulate and conduct Class II gaming from the tribe's reservation. Class II gaming, as defined by IGRA, includes poker and bingo, but does not include slot-based games or house-banked games, such as blackjack. House-banked games and slot machines are defined as Class III games, and can only be offered in a tribal casino upon agreement with the state through a Tribal-State Gaming Compact. Santa Ysabel has had such a compact with the state since 2005, but has no plans to offer Class III gaming through its interactive website.
Many tribes feel that the current proposed legislation gives the state too much regulatory authority over tribal online gaming, an authority which historically has been the sole purview of tribal gaming regulators due to the Class II status of the games involved. The proposed legislation discounts and marginalizes years of successful and experienced regulation of tribal gaming in California in favor of relatively inexperienced state gaming regulators.
The tribe had hopes to launch real-money poker around the time of that statement, but it has not happened yet. In an interview published Friday on CardPlayer.com, though, Vialpando said that they are targeting between August 26th and 28th to get it going.

We Installed a More Powerful Search Engine on the Database
As From Cave Paintings to the Internet has grown, I have noticed that the original keyword search left out critical information. In an effort to improve search results today Jessica Gore installed a new Google Custom Search engine on the database.
From now on you should receive more complete results when you search on keyword or phrase in the search box in the upper right corner of all the database screens, and you will not be hassled by those often-inappropriate ads. They are gone!
posted by Jeremy Norman @ 10:35 PM 12 Comments
Those of you who check out the From Cave Paintings to the Internet Database that I am building as a hobby know that my interest in the history of information includes prehistory and the history of art. In my forthcoming book on the Discovery of the Stone Age one of the topics covered is the history of the discovery of prehistoric art. Thus the recent discoveries by Nicholas Conard and his team caught my attention. Here is an entry from the database (circa 38,000-33,000 BCE):
"Despite well over 100 years of research and debate, the origins of art remain contentious. In recent years, abstract depictions have been documented at southern African sites dating to approx 75 kyr [75,000 years] before present (bp) and the earliest figurative art, which is often seen as an important proxy for advanced symbolic communication, has been documented in Europe as dating to between 30 and 40 kyr [30-40,000 years before present]. Here I report the discovery of a female mammoth-ivory figurine in the basal Aurignacian deposit at Hohle Fels Cave in the Swabian Jura of southwestern Germany during excavations in 2008. This figurine was produced at least 35,000 calendar years ago, making it one of the oldest known examples of figurative art. This discovery predates the well-known Venuses from the Gravettian culture by at least 5,000 years and radically changes our views of the context and meaning of the earliest Palaeolithic art" (Nicholas J. Conard, "A female figurine from the basal Aurignacian of Hohle Fels Cave in southwestern Germany," Nature, 459, 248-252 (14 May 2009) | doi:10.1038/nature07995).
You can watch a Nature video presentation on this discovery by American archaeologist Nicholas Conard from the department of Early Prehistory and Quaternary Ecology, University of Tübingen, at: http://www.nature.com/nature/videoarchive/prehistoricpinup/, (accessed 05-14-2009.)
The small figurine has been called The Venus of Schelklingen (Venus of Hohle Fels). was found near Schelklingen, Germany. Belonging to the early Aurignacian, at the very beginning of the Upper Paleolithic and the earliest presence of Homo sapiens (Cro-Magnon) in Europe, "the discovery of the Venus of Schelklingen pushes back the date of the oldest prehistoric sculpture, and the oldest known figurative art altogether, by several millennia, establishing that works of art were being produced throughout the Aurignacian.
"The figurine was discovered in September 2008 in a cave called Hohle Fels (Swabian German for "hollow rock") near Schelklingen, some 15 kilometres (9 mi) west of Ulm, Baden-Württemberg, Germany, by a team from the University of Tübingen led by Prof. Nicholas Conard, who reported their find in Nature.
"The figurine, made of a mammoth tusk, is a representation of the female body, putting emphasis on the vulva and the breasts, and is consequently assumed to be an amulet related to fertility. In place of the head, the figurine has a perforation so that it could be worn as a pendant. Archaeologist John J. Shea suggests it would have taken "tens if not hundreds of hours" to carve. The figurine was found in the cave hall, about 20 metres (66 ft) from the entrance, and about 3 metres (10 ft) below the current ground level. It was broken into fragments, of which six have been recovered, with the left arm and shoulder still missing" (Wikipedia article on Venus of Schelklingen, accessed 05-14-2009).
• In 2003 Nicholas Conard reported the discovery of a carved waterbird looking something like a diving cormorant, and a carved horse head from the same Hohle Fels cave. These are thought to date from 31,000 to 28,000 BCE:

Arimidex (anastrozole) is an approved medication prescribed to postmenopausal women who have hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in the early stages. As an aromatase inhibitor, Arimidex (anastrozole) works by blocking the aromatase enzyme to prevent estrogen from being produced.
In a series of reactions, the body's adrenal gland makes a number of hormones, including estrogens and androgens. When women go through menopause, their ovaries stop producing estrogen. Most of the needed estrogen then in the body is made by changing androgens to estrogens. With the help of the aromatase enzyme, androgen is converted to estrogen in different places in the body, like the muscles, fats, and liver, and even in breast tumors. Since estrogen promotes the growth of certain breast tumors, Arimidex (anastrozole) comes into play by binding to aromatase, stopping or inhibiting the enzyme's activity, and therefore estrogen production. Stop the estrogen supply and you help stop the cancer.
After clinical trials, results show that the most common side effects of using Arimidex (anastrozole) include joint symptoms, hot flashes, weakness, body pains, mood swings, sore throats, vomiting and nausea, high blood pressure, depression, osteoporosis, headaches, and swelling of the arms and legs. Since bones are weaker, fractures, including those in the wrist, hip, and spine, also occurred more frequently. While side effects are inevitable, as with any kind of medication, the ones you experience with Arimidex remain to be quite manageable. For example, swelling. To cope with swelling, avoid using the affected arm to carry or lift shopping bags or other heavy objects and always use gloves when you're washing dishes or gardening to protect against infections. Avoid wearing tight accessories and clothes on your affected arm and wear compression sleeves to help in pooling the fluid to be drained. To maintain your range of motion and flexibility, do regular, gentle exercises.
Arimidex (anastrozole) may also be utilized as an ancillary compound that is to be added to a steroid cycle. For this purpose, it is advantageous to use because as it reduces estrogen in the body, it also increases testosterone levels. Since aromatization (estrogen conversion) is avoided, those who use Arimidex also avoid estrogen-related side effects such as water retention, acne, and gynecomastia (male breast enlargement). Nonetheless, enough estrogen is still left in the body, just enough to attain optimal muscle growth.
Steroid Sources carries informtaion on a wide range of legal and top-quality steroids to suit your needs, whether you're looking to use them for medical or athletic purposes. We bring you helpful tips on how to find reputable distributors on the Internet to ensure that you're getting high-quality products.

Blackpool may be forced into changes for Bristol Rovers' visit
Blackpool boss Terry McPhillips and everyone at Bloomfield Road are focusing on league matters after their midweek Arsenal trip
Matt Scrafton
Terry McPhillips admitted he may have to make changes for Blackpool's return to league action against Bristol Rovers.
The Seasiders have had little time to recover from Wednesday's efforts at the Emirates, where they pushed Arsenal all the way before losing 2-1.
McPhillips admits tiredness could come into play at Bloomfield Road this afternoon, which could force his hand when it comes to team selection.
The manager said: "I got back into my house at about 5.05am on Thursday. All the motorways were shut and we were diverted everywhere, so we've had that.
"The boys have obviously had a really tough game. We probably covered more mileage than we normally do, so rest and recovery after that is important.
"We've done some light training with those lads and trained the others a bit harder, and then we'll see how they turn up.
"We've got an idea of the team, of course, but one or two might need a rest. One or two fresh faces might freshen it up.
"I think the physical side will be a factor with how we've recovered. I'm sure there will be one or two with heavy legs, but we'll just have to get that out of the system.
"But the performance was outstanding; to go to the top team in Europe at the moment, a massive club, and they only had two shots on target which they scored both."
Despite Bristol Rovers sitting 20th in League One, having scored just 11 times in 16 games, McPhillips is still expecting a tough test.
"They're well organised," the Pool boss said. "I watched them at Rochdale a few weeks ago and they're hard to get past.
"They haven't been scoring a lot and they don't concede many either, so I'm expecting a tight game. I'm expecting a tough game for lots of reasons.
"It's a good club, they've got some good players and they're just waiting to go on their good run.
Sunderland and Reading eye Sheffield United defender, Brentford in £750k bid for Blackpool FC left-back, Bolton Wanderers call off pre-season friendly against Chester following player strike - League One and Two rumours
"It's a tough game for us but it's one we're hoping to do well in.
"It's probably the biggest game of the season so far because it's the next one.
"It's a home game and it's on the back of two good wins at home, so if we're going to do anything we're going to have to play well against Bristol Rovers, it's as simple as that."
Blackpool coach Chris Short has left the club to take up a sports science position at Oxford United.
The 48-year-old, who joined the club as a first-team coach in July, has recently occupied the role of fitness coach at Bloomfield Road.
Elsewhere, Blackpool's U18s will play Scunthorpe United in the second round of the FA Youth Cup, with the tie taking place at Glanford Park on Tuesday, November 6 (7.45pm).
The young Seasiders beat Guiseley 4-0 in the first round of the competition.

In Home Decor, Less Is More, from… The OC!
Refreshing your living space is all about subtraction, not addition.
When you live in a small space, especially if you are a renter, it's often difficult to keep your home streamlined. Clean lines and simple design aren't achieved easily. The key is to avoid overcrowding so your space can sing.
Editing a space is a trade secret of quality interior decorating. Here are some tricks for redecorating using items you already have. You'll be amazed how a quick rearrangement can change your perspective.
End tables often become a magnet for magazines, keys, office supplies and more.
Get rid of the debris, then discourage it from accumulating again by grabbing a few favorite titles with color-matching bindings and stacking them to create a sweet, concise arrangement. Add interest by introducing an item with personal significance, like a camera or vase.
You've already got the materials for this easy update, and even a small edit can have big impact. Your space will instantly look bigger and cleaner.
The dining room table and office spaces can quickly become cramped or overcrowded.
Clear off your pop-up office and unopened mail, and replace the mess with one seasonal arrangement on the table.
Large palm fronds in a tall glass vase make for an eye-catching centerpiece. Putting natural wood near metal accents creates a contrast in textures. This large custom wood table next to the radiator screams brownstone charm.
Streamlining is an amazing way to draw the eye to your home's accents. The age-old Coco Chanel saying to take one accessory off applies to your surfaces as well as your outfits.
The trend a few decades ago was to surprise with loud bursts of colors and accent walls. While bold colors have their place in the design world, the trend of the moment is simple white.
But don't think going with white limits your options. It's not your mother's eggshell anymore, and you can really express yourself with this powerful neutral. For example, Sherwin-Williams offers tons of shades, like Ice Cube, Opera Glass, and Medici Ivory.
A white backdrop brings the spotlight back to your amazing home. Whether you highlight its delightfully worn hardwood floors or boldly accented side pieces, your space can act as a canvas to show off all the furniture and personal touches you've added through the years.
If you've got old books, records or dishware taking up valuable space, there are tons of ways to make sure these unwanted items find a good home.
Use websites like Krrb.com to sell or trade your unwanted home furnishings. Even an old-fashioned yard (or, in this case, stoop) sale can keep your discarded belongings out of the landfill.
They'll become someone else's treasures — and you'll clear some space and make a little cash.

Last week I showed you a picture of a piece of photo jewelry owned by Teri Luna and discussed a few clues.
Teri saw the column and wrote back with a few more details.
This particular pin is 1 3/4 inches high and 1 3/8 inches wide. In the photo it looks larger than that. These small pins could be worn at the neckline or pinned to the bodice.
I suggested that this man could be either the father of John Waddell Brown or the father of his wife, Agnes Dunlop Drinnan Brown if either man was born circa 1810.
Teri doesn't know too much about either man. Both were deceased at the time Agnes and John married in 1892. John's father, John Brown was a carting contractor but Teri lacks both birth and death information for him. It's a classic case of genealogical research problems relating to a common name. His wife was Janet Waddell.
Agnes' father, John Dunlop had a civic occupation as the Registrar of Births. He was born circa 1818 in Tarbolton, Ayrshire, Scotland. His wife was Catherine Fulton Dunlop.
Both mother's were alive at the time their children married. The mystery remains. Who's depicted in the photo and who wore the pin? Janet or Catherine?
Teri's determined to figure out this mystery. She's going through microfiche of town records looking for clues. She might want to consult FindMyPast.com too. I found several possible matches for her ancestors including census records for the Dunlops. Find My Past offers a free 14-day trial subscription.
