"Muffin tops are girls who wear tight jeans and their gut spills over the top - like a muffin." "Although meth is popular and prevalent in porno, this is not a meth series," Powers continues. "In fact, this is probably the first time a drug-free porn has been shot." In order to keep their weight up, "all of the girls have promised not to do any meth." hopeinvain, posting in illustrators @ : In Incubation: Live Scribbles from Portlandia. The medium is Painter X, with 4x5 Wacom Intuos3 (projected 12 feet high, whilst musicians collaborate and integrate). Mostly scratchboard, some dodge and burn, some blend and smear. Cropping tactics are happily incidental, owing to natural cropping of the projection screen area on the stage. Colors more vibrant here than in person or on film due to stage light saturation. bbcnewsworld @ : Sudan clashes prompt UN pullout The UN withdraws non-essential staff after clashes in oil-rich Abyei which straddles Sudan's north and south. bbcnewsworld @ : Brazil names new environment head Brazil Green Party founder Carlos Minc replaces Marina Silva who quit amid cabinet clashes over Amazon policy. leontimmermans, posting in artworks @ : shake this land swetliashok, posting in ru_artists @ : Картинки из серии "Город забытых снов"  Хотелось бы вернуться в детсво и побродить по улочкам тихого городка с красивыми домами хотя бы во сне...

bbcnewsworld @ : Henin 'is best of her generation' Tennis legend Billie-Jean King says the retired Justine Henin should be regarded as the best player in the modern women's game. liveavatar @ :
Tuesday last week, thinking a bout of food poisoning/intestinal virus was over (wrong! it lasted several days more), I went to the inaugural meeting of a Meetup for local small businesses. Good people, interesting mixture of business types, genuine support offered all around. Everyone got a round of brainstorming. The group liked my sample laser-cut goodies and suggested several new ways to market them. ( skwashy, I have not forgotten; the pictures will go up sometime in the next few days.)Today Alan and I were saying we could easily live without the XM-Radio section of the satellite TV listings. But now, reminded that the section exists, I'm listening to Judith triumphans, with Magdalena Kozena, on the XM VOX channel. Last week, when I wasn't draped limply on my mattress, I discovered how much Jussi Bjoerling can be found on YouTube (a metric buttload, as it turns out, including some entertaining Swedish movie clips). Bjoerling was my father's favorite tenor, but we only had two or three records that featured Bjoerling when I was growing up. Thanks to YouTube, now I know what the fuss was about. In other musical news, on Saturday (during an illness break) I saw Joe Jackson at the Fox Theater. Great show -- what a polished performer -- and a very happy audience. Even the enthusiastic drunk in my row who kept shouting slurred words of love at the stage couldn't dampen the mood. (As he abashedly told the one woman who scolded him, he just likes Joe Jackson a lot.) And to think that what finally got me out of my chair to see Jackson live was that YouTube clip with him, William Shatner, and Ben Folds. All hail the power of YouTube. Friday afternoon my Voice class intends to go bowling. ...Just because, okay? The instructor is happy because by report he's a good bowler. I plan to toss gutterballs cheerfully and perhaps perform my party trick of balancing a bowling ball on my head while standing on another ball. Maybe I can convince them to try miniature golf for an end-of-quarter party. Now wish me luck in ingesting food and drink that soothes going in while staying sufficiently acid going out. |
